Anyone else remember Skidmore, Missouri?

I do. Here's some information for those who don't know about it.

Skidmore received national attention for the 1981 shooting death of town bully Kenneth Rex McElroy. Although the killing occurred in broad daylight in front of the D&G Tavern, none of the townspeople would come forward to say who did it.

Sort of like when those WWII veterans in Athens, TN threw out the corrupt sheriff. It involved dynamite, IIRC.. :p
