Russell G. Lloyd, Sr.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Russell G. Lloyd, Sr. (March 29, 1932 - March 21, 1980) served as the Republican mayor of Evansville, Indiana from 1972 to 1980. In 1980 Julia van Orden murdered Lloyd in a fit of anger as she perceived he played a role in a property dispute. Orden was argued as being too mentally ill to have understood her actions and thus convicted and sentenced to a 40 year prison sentence.[1] [2]
His son, Russell G. Lloyd, Jr., served as mayor of Evansville from 2000 to 2004.
