re: Looks like I called it right on the Polk Co triple murders. No dad, no drugs. Bingo!

Here is the deal: The story about the truck/ engine is made up shite. The reason they followed the guy to the lake was to rob him. They saw him alone at The Dollar General, and saw that he had money and followed him. Murder in the process of a robbery, get's these guys the death penalty. Murder because of an argument is not so bad, according to the law. These guys know the ropes, so they made up the story about the stolen truck/ engine to try and avoid the death penalty.
