Woman claims ‘obsessed’ stepdad made shrine with her underwear, raped her before traveling to NY to kill her mom in murder-suicide

The heartbroken daughter of a woman killed by her ex-husband in an upstate New York murder-suicide last week revealed her sick stepdad also raped her and made a twisted shrine of her underwear. The series of disturbing allegations was disclosed after Melissa K. Pelc-Lohr, 50, was found dead of a single gunshot wound to the head in her Moira home on Oct. 27, according to the New York State Police. Mellissa Pelc-Lohr, who died on Oct. 27 after she was fatally shot by her ex-husband Norman Lohr, leaves behind her children, Allison Pelc and Freddie Pelc. GoFundMe Investigators soon after spotted a red 2009 Chevrolet Silverado linked to the homicide and tried to stop the driver, identified as her ex-husband, Norman E. Lohr Jr., 50, of Michigan. The deranged gunman led state troopers on a 200-mile chase that ended when he fatally shot himself in Lyons, NY, police said. Now, Pelc-Lohr’s daughter is publicly accusing her ex-stepfather, Lohr Jr., of a slew of bizarre and violent behavior — including raping her, making a shrine of her underwear, and repeatedly violating protection orders.

Fairport mayor candidates react to write-in lead | Exclusive

More write-in votes were cast in the Fairport mayor's race than votes for the only candidate whose name appeared on the ballot, according to unofficial Election Day results. It’s still too early to know exactly what the outcome means, but village Trustee Tracy Briggs mounted a prominent write-in campaign after losing the Democratic primary in June. The margin in unofficial results was 1,319 write-in votes to 1,252 votes for Heidi Woika, running on the Democratic and Working Families lines. On Nov. 4, Briggs said she was feeling good about the fact she was leading and likely to win the race, though the results won’t be certified until later this month. “I just feel overwhelmed and incredibly grateful for this opportunity to serve the residents and merchants of the village,” Briggs said. “As I said the other day, this really was a community effort, and people came out and were very brave and courageous and engaged.” Election night was difficult, Woika said, but she was quick to praise her team and the Democratic candidates running for village trustee. “It’s been tough the past 48 hours,” she said.
