The deaths occurred in that period.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-ac37hb evys1bk0\">The four Ohio men who died as a result of Ms. Auborn\u2019s actions were identified by prosecutors as: Joseph Crumpler, 30, of North Linden; Robert Snoke, 54, of Pataskala; Wayne Akin, 64, of the Northeast Side; and Guy Renda, 42, of Belpre. A fifth man, Richard Bixler, 61, of Columbus, survived.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-ac37hb evys1bk0\">According to investigators, Ms. Auborn met the men in the northeastern part of Columbus, sometimes near highways.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-ac37hb evys1bk0\">Mark M.
