Congrats!!! To Tiffany, Arnell, Gary, and Tod!!!!
Great Job, guys!! Keep up the GOOD WORK; I know you will!!

cm
i am very good friends with both families.  they told mike he was the target and to keep a watchful eye.  they are still very afraid.  i just hope they are really looking for the person who killed O’Neal and attacked Mike.  I am like you, I still keep an eye out too.

Justice…how in the world did I “hammer” the Crocker’s???? I simply said now that they are gone we are laying low…how is that knocking the Crockers??? After the attack everybody here was truthfully afraid of their own shadow…..being that O’Neal was in Mike’s truck, I, along with alot of people, thought that Mike was the target, not O"neal….so while they still where here, we were SCARED!!!!
So please dont put words in my mouth…I have expressed my thoughts just like everyone else has….

to me it is a big deal.  if someone knows what happened money will make them talk.  eventually whoever did this will slip up and tell someone.

justice, i am not saying the man is guilty, but offering a reward is no big deal.

cm,
you still want to hammer the crocker’s.  did you know that they (the Crocker’s) have offered a $50,000.00 reward for the arrest of O’Neals killer and Mike’s attacker? They offered this the day he was attacked. Oh, why wasn’t that made public.  I think someone might talk if they knew that kind of money was being offered, but no one wants to go public with that.  i still live in citronelle and yes, we all want answers, but what we want is the truth not a bunch of lies and false statements.

Way to go Arnell and Tiffany!!!!

I live in Citronelle, and were very good friends with O’Neal and Nicki, I just want to make a claim…Citronelle is most likely full of drugs and crime of all sort, but not everyone is like that. I am proud of Tiffany and Arnell, however this case is still unsolved and the Perret family deserves answers…when are they gonna get answers. I live in the golfcourse where this all happened…believe me we are still looking around our shoulders, but with the Crocker’s gone…we are just laying low.
I hope that soon someone will just break this open and solve it. I can’t tell you how many times I see the detectives out there. Still trying to figure out what happened…We all have our stories and maybe one day one of our theories will prove true.

yes, a small town with too many drugs, to much crime and everything that goes on in this town is swept under the rug.

lol ok glamblitz,  thought you might know something. thought we might have a phoenix city here.
