    Crum Convicted in Odom Murder | Orlando News

    After a gripping trial that spanned days and featured over two dozen witnesses, a jury has convicted Jeffrey Crum in the decades-old murder of 12-year-old Jennifer Odom — finding him guilty on all counts: kidnapping, sexual battery, and murder. The case hinged on powerful testimony, including a shocking confession from Crum’s own son, who described his father as a “monster” and admitted to the crime years ago — a confession echoed by another longtime acquaintance. Prosecutors argued Crum made similar admissions to multiple people over time, while the defense challenged the credibility of witnesses with prior felony records and questioned why Crum’s son didn’t report the confession immediately. Crum, already serving a life sentence for a 1992 sexual assault, now faces sentencing — either life in prison or the death penalty — for Odom’s murder. The conviction brings long-awaited justice to Jennifer’s family after more than 30 years, fueled in part by breakthrough DNA evidence that reopened the case. The sentencing phase begins Monday, marking a pivotal moment in a case where confessions, even years late, proved decisive.
