An interesting theory. In fact, the sheriff in charge originally said, in twenty years there had never been a LE issue with this family. I found that to be a little odd, since the men in the family were always getting into fights with other locals. The cockfighting operation appears to be very close to the road and would be hard to miss. Also read that they were hard workers and active in community affairs. So who knows.....one interesting tidbit is that the youngest victim, sixteen, had been the target of a road rage incident. It seems a woman driver, 33, went after the boy. Slapped him around pretty badly, left bruises and charges were brought against the woman. The boy’s mother who is a victim also was active in getting the woman arrested. Two days before the murder the woman was given one year probation and not to go near the family.
He would be the first person I'd want to rule out.
In a rather small rural community such as this is, it is my experience that everyone knows what everyone else is doing or what they may be involved with. You can’t make me believe that LE didn’t know about who was the drug supplier in the community. Everybody knows the “go to guy”. Every body knows who the thieves are, which women are the sluts and who’s been cheating on who.
