Surprised I haven't seen a thread here about this, dude appears to have killed daughter, mother, son, and daughter's boyfriend while taking their 7 month old and dumping it in an unrelated person's yard (baby is thankfully unharmed it seems). Bodies were found about 40 miles from where baby was dumped

quote:

DYER CO., Tenn. (WMC) - Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has identified a suspect wanted for killing four people in Tiptonville earlier this week. A warrant is out for the arrest of 28-year-old Austin Robert Drummond. Drummond is wanted for four counts of first-degree murder, one count of aggravated kidnapping, four counts of possessing a firearm as a felon and one count of possessing a firearm during a dangerous felony.



quote:

The four bodies were found Tuesday night on Carrington Road in Tiptonville, located in Lake County, approximately 40 miles away from where a seven-month-old girl was dropped off in a Dyer County yard. Drummond is 5'10, 190 pounds with brown hair, blue eyes and a goatee. He is believed to be driving a 2016 Audi A3 with a Tennessee tag RI01896 with damage to the driver’s side. He is considered armed and dangerous. TBI officials say if you see him, do not approach.


If I missed a thread on it I apologize

“At large” is such an overly ominous saying, granting partial omnipresence.

Can’t be true, I’ve been reliably informed that only black people do stuff like this.

Statistically speaking, if the crime is of a violent nature, yes

Oh there's plenty that happens on the other side too, I won't go any further out of respect for the victims but we could all probably speculate as to some of the things that are involved here

Difference is the black ppl you mention are only 13% of the population, what percentage of violent crime are they responsible for?

Only or just more likely? Maybe it’s just the whites doing this can get called out as what they are without hurt feelings or additional debate.

Regardless if we discussed every murder by a black it would need its own board to see anything else.

I did a Facebook dive on this. He just got out of prison recently after being in since 16 years old. He got involved with a female CO while in there. That female CO is the sister of the grandmother he killed. That female CO is supposedly in jail now and pregnant with his child.

Motive for killing might be drugs related.

Wait… a 38 year old grandmas sister was killed by the grandma boyfriend who just got out of jail since being in since he was 16.


Let me guess…. This is normal behavior in Dyer county?.

That's a weird part of the country.

Most people don't even know that Tennessee and Missouri share a border. And when I say most people, I'm including people who live in Tennessee and Missouri. Both of those states just pretend like this little retarded slice of their land doesn't exist.

It's also one of the most dangerous earthquake zones in the US. When the "big one" hits, it's probably not going to be CA or AK that gets leveled, but the pressure point of the New Madrid fault line. The last time it snapped, the Mississippi River flowed backwards and Reelfoot Lake formed. Until it happens again, meth it up I suppose.
