Spent more time than I cared to looking elswhere for info about this case, but it was less than 20 minutes. I would be so embarrassed to attach my name to such shoddy work as this so-called report.
My research partially answered my questions:
The two males who caused a ruckus at the execution were the killer’s son and his grandson. From what I could gather, I am assuming the son was the product of a marriage prior to Coble’s marriage to the woman whose parents he murdered.
The 4 children who were tied up were the 3 daughters of the estranged wife along with their cousin, the son of this woman’s brother. Coble left those kids bound at the woman’s house as he set off to murder the woman’s brother and her parents. The woman returned to her home to find Coble waiting for her. He abducted her, telling her that he had killed her brother and her parents so that they couldn’t help her.
Boy that cleared things up a lot.
Maybe you should write for that site.
What a horrific story, even if 30 years old.
