The official details will probably remain sketchy. Swamphunter and Hogwild called it when they both said the investigation would be a goat roping and they doubted anyone would be charged. Guy was shot by black local thugs, poaching and stealing on his land, that live in a trailer in the red creek area. Only way I see this being solved and someone convicted is if someone offers a big enough reward to loosen up the local lips. For enough cash money, they will turn on each other like rabid pitbulls
That probably won't work in this situation.
The only ones that know are the ones that did it. And, according to the locals, they all have the same story.......they did not do it. But, they have seen 'a white dude up outta Mobile' that had been slipping in there poaching. They are all family and VERY clannish!!!!!
The LEO's know that one of them did it. BUT, without being able to prove which one it was, they have no way to make an arrest and get a conviction.
I gotta admit, it would be a tough case for an LEO.
But, that should not deter them from having enough of a presence there to make the lawbreakers uneasy!
