Flags at the U.S. Capitol and in multiple states will now be flown at full-staff on Inauguration Day, despite a nationwide mandate for flags to be flown at half-staff in honor of former President Jimmy Carter.
House Speaker Mike Johnson announced today that he has suspended the 30-day mourning period and will allow flags to be displayed at full-staff for President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration. Flags in eight states, including Texas, Alabama, Tennessee and Florida, will also be raised on Monday.
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine ordered U.S. and state flags to fly at half-staff following Carter’s death, but will he reverse the order for the state of Ohio? Here’s what we know.
Will Gov. Mike DeWine raise Ohio flags for Donald Trump’s Inauguration?
Flags in Ohio will remain at half-staff on Inauguration Day, according to Dan Tierney, a spokesperson for DeWine.
“Ohio hasn’t made any changes and does not anticipate making any changes to the flags,” Tierney told the Columbus Dispatch.
Which states will raise their flag on Inauguration Day?
So far, governors from at least eight states have announced plans to raise the U.S. flag on Jan. 20th:
A Kentucky woman who had been missing for more than two weeks was found dead in her vehicle in Ohio, authorities said.
The body of Debra Wireman was found in her vehicle on July 3 in Clermont County, Ohio, the Flemingsburg Police Department in Kentucky said on Facebook on Wednesday. Investigators were called to the scene after a report identifying the vehicle as belonging to a missing person, police said. The remains were identified as Wireman’s by the Clermont County Coroner’s Office on July 7, according to law enforcement.
Police in Kentucky said the Clermont County Sheriff’s Office in Ohio is investigating the woman’s death. No additional information will be released by Flemingsburg police “out of respect for Debra’s family and the integrity of that investigation.”
“While this is not the outcome any of us hoped and prayed for, we are thankful that Debra has been found and that her family can now begin to receive the closure they deserve,” police added on Facebook.
Wireman, according to police, was last seen on June 17 at around 4:30 p.m. in Aberdeen, Ohio, while traveling toward Maysville, Kentucky. She was driving a white 2020 Kia Forte with front-end damage. Police said family and friends were “concerned for her welfare.”
“The overwhelming response from our community, neighboring agencies, the media, and countless individuals across the region demonstrated the very best of people coming together in the hope of bringing someone home safely,” Flemingsburg police said.

Sixteen ‘almost feral’ children. Aged 18 months to 18 years. Hidden from sight in an Ohio house of horrors.
Until now.
It’s a situation difficult to fathom: Investigators found 16 kids living inside a 1,300-square-foot home in Vinton County, Ohio, confined in a 12-by-12 bedroom investigators say was covered in human waste. Gary Siders Jr., Elizabeth Siders, Gary Siders Sr., and Christina Siders were arrested on Tuesday, June 30th, and remain in jail after waiving their preliminary hearings today, Tuesday, July 7th.
Investigative reporter Anne Emerson goes beyond the headlines to understand the human impact in the developing Siders child abuse case. How did children live under these conditions for so long? We wanted to hear from the local community affected by this horrific story.
In this episode of Criminally Obsessed, we hear from those voices – from Captain Jeremiah Griffith who was a first responder to the shocking scene, to local Vinton County Pastor James Dimel who describes the community’s support of children who were trapped in a ‘den of evil’. Law enforcement and locals share their shock at the horror lurking in their own community. And Attorney Thomas Stolly, who represents Elizabeth Siders, says the case is more complicated than many believe, urging the public to remember that his client is presumed innocent.
Today, we react in real time to what we know so far in this developing story, and offer multiple perspectives of those closest to this case.
