End of Story

Authorities have discovered what happened to the missing Mr. Throneberry in the Alread fugitive case.

Ted Throneberry’s killers hit him in the head with a sledgehammer, burned his body and scattered his charred remains along a wooded trail before trying to destroy them with a tractor, a prosecutor said Wednesday. "For some reason, certain persons thought they could commit the perfect murder in Van Buren County," said Stephen James, deputy prosecutor for the 20 th Judicial District, "but they were so wrong."

The trio are likely facing charges of "kidnapping, felony capital murder and theft"....and I would guess, the death penalty.

Murder and mayhem in the Ozarks. It's much more rare than you might think.
