SON OF THE FUGITIVE--Sam Reese Sheppard, son of Dr. Sam Sheppard and Marilyn Reese Sheppard, gestures during a news conference, at the Ohio Statehouse, in Columbus, Ohio, on Tuesday, Sept. 16, 1997. Sheppard announced plans for an 18-day walk from Cleveland to Cincinnati in memory of his parents. Sheppard, who was age seven at the time his mother was murdered, grew up visiting his father-- the man wrongly accused of murdering his wife and whose story inspired the movie, "The Fugitive"--in State Penitentiaries at Columbus and Marion. Sheppard is against the death penalty and has joined forces with Citizens United for Alternatives to the Death Penalty.
