Doctor’s wife convicted in husband’s death

COLUMBUS – A Dublin woman faces a life sentence after being found guilty of murdering her husband in 2018.

Jurors Thursday morning found Holli Osborn guilty of shooting her husband in the head three times while he was sleeping at the couple’s Ennishannon Place home, according to a release from the office of Franklin County Prosecuting Attorney Gary Tyack.

Dr. Christopher Osborn was found dead inside the home on the morning of July 18, 2018, and Holli Osborn, 46, was arrested for his murder on April 12, 2019, following a grand jury indictment.

During the two-and-a-half-week-long trial, prosecutors presented evidence from police and forensic testing that showed Holli Osborn’s DNA was found on the murder weapon, gunshot residue was found on her body, and cell phone information showed a motive.

Osborn faces a mandatory sentence of 18 years to life in prison. Franklin County Common Pleas Court Judge Jaiza Page will hand down a sentenced at a later date.
