PARKERSBURG — Additional charges were filed against two teens accused of causing the death of a former Parkersburg woman at a state park in Ohio, a Hocking County assistant prosecutor said on Wednesday.

The state also will seek to try Jordan Buckley and Jaden Churchheus, both 16 and both of Logan, Ohio, as adults, Assistant Prosecutor Jorden Meadows said. The boys were arrested Oct. 10 for the death of Victoria Schafer, 44, on Labor Day, Sept. 2, at Old Man’s Cave in Hocking Hills State Park in Logan.

Schafer, a photographer from Chillicothe and a graduate of Parkersburg High School, was killed when she was struck by a falling 74-pound log while shooting pictures. Investigators with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources said the log did not fall by natural means.

Buckley and Churchheus were originally charged as juveniles with reckless homicide.

Additional charges of murder, an unclassified felony; felonious assault, a second-degree felony; and involuntary manslaughter, a first-degree felony, have been filed against them, Meadows said.

An unclassified felony is the most severe classification, Meadows said. It carries the possibility of life in prison without parole.

A preliminary hearing will be held on Nov. 5 to determine if there is probable cause to bind Buckley and Churchheus as adults in Hocking County Common Pleas Court, she said.

Charges against several other individuals allegedly involved in the incident also are being considered by the prosecutor’s office, but those would be of a lesser magnitude than those against Buckley and Churchheus, she said.

Buckley and Churchheus are the main people involved in the death, Meadows said.

Buckley and Churchheus will remain in the Multi-County Juvenile Detention Center in Lancaster, she said.

A tip led investigators to Buckley and Churchheus. One of them sent a text message to a classmate that said he was involved in something serious at the park with another juvenile, Meadows has previously said.

The Hocking County Sheriff’s Office reported on its Facebook page that investigators interviewed the two juveniles and obtained a confession.

Schafer owned Victoria Schafer Photography. She is survived by her parents, Jenny Keup and Rick Keup, her husband Fritz and four children, and a sister, Catherine Muth.

The lead investigating agency was the Department of Natural Resources. Also involved were the Hocking County prosecutor, coroner and sheriff’s offices, Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation, Ohio State Highway Patrol, the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Administration and Southern Ohio Crime Stoppers. The Crime Stoppers had offered a $10,000 reward for information.
