At the time the video was shot, DeWine was an assistant prosecuting attorney in Greene County. Some of the video shows another assistant prosecuting attorney, Tom Rose, going through what was left of his office. Rose is now a federal judge in the Southern District of Ohio.

A fallen tree can be seen from the DeWine house, which was located on Fishworm Road in Cedarville Twp. Jill, Becky and Pat DeWine are seen playing in the yard in a few clips.

The video ends with a car driving out of town. On the way, it passes the original James Galloway (early Greene County settler) log cabin which is part of the Greene County Historical Society.
