Arson Investigation House Fire In Boyle County

Investigators are calling a fire that destroyed a Boyle County home earlier Monday suspicious.

The heavy smoke and the flames were visible for a distance as they devoured a Parksville home in a matter of minutes. In that time, decades of Brenda Cook’s memories were suddenly gone.

“My children, all three of them grew up here,” Cooks said. “We can’t replace that.”

http://liarcatchers.com/arson_investigation.html

Cook was renting out the house to a family. A family, she says, she was headed to court Tuesday morning to evict. Around noon on Monday, Cook says she got off the phone with police about that pending eviction.

“Not 10 minutes later, he called and told me they had sent fire trucks to this residence,” Cooks said.

“At the time, this fire is under investigation as an arson fire from what we’ve heard from the landowners, and so that’s the way that we’re going currently,” said Boyle County Fire Lt. Tim Middleton.

Monday’s powerful winds created an obstacle for firefighters. Crews worked fast, but they were unable to save Cook’s home. Their focus now shifts toward figuring out how what sparked the fire and who is responsible.

So far, no one has been charged.

Cold Case Perry County Double Murder Remains Unsolved

A prominent Perry County businessman and his wife were found shot to death in their home nearly three years ago.

For her daughter, it’s an open wound mixed with terrifying flashbacks and still no answers.

“We don’t know who, we don’t know why and we do struggle every single day,” Shirley Justen said.

http://liarcatchers.com/cold_cases.html

Police found Roy and Wanda Campbell shot dead at their secluded home the day after Thanksgiving in 2011.

Justen said she knows as much now as she did in 2011 that someone killed her mother but no idea why.

“Why would they kill my mother?” she asked. “She doesn’t have an enemy in this world.”

Justen said she checks with detectives regularly.

Her mother and stepfather’s deaths aren’t considered a cold case, but investigators are waiting for someone to come forward with answers.

“We know someone knows,” Justen said. “There’s somebody who know what happened and we are still begging and pleading.”

The family is offering a $20,000 reward leading to the arrest and conviction of the Campbells’ killer.

Missing Person Missing Lexington Man Found

Kentucky State Police confirm a Lexington man who went missing last week after making threats to a woman and three local businesses has been found.

Police say 36-year-old James Caldwell has been located in Corbin and is now at a medical facility.

Few details about the case are being released at this time.

http://liarcatchers.com/missing_persons_investigations.html

Two arrest warrants for stalking and terroristic threatening were issued last week as police continued their search for Caldwell, who they said could be a danger to himself and others.

Caldwell went missing on May 27 from a home on Eureka Drive in Lexington around 5:00 a.m. Police said he has a mental illness. He was caught on camera that same day just a couple hours later eating at a Laurel County Dairy Queen. Last Friday, police received a tip that Caldwell had possibly been seen at a nightclub in Lexington, but they didn’t find him.

Police say they’re usually sensitive to not disclosing information about someone’s mental state or their health issues, but because of the uncertainty surrounding Caldwell, they knew that public safety had to be the number one priority.

Caldwell has no criminal history in Lexington.

Wrongful Death KSP Searches Park for Evidence in School Bus Driver Murder

Kentucky State Police are searching a park in Scott County for evidence in connection to the murder of a retired school bus driver who was killed at her home in 2010.

A couple of fire departments along with state police have been at Great Crossings Park searching the Elkhorn Creek since 9:30 a.m. Monday, for evidence related to Sue Jones’ beating death at her home after a burglary.

http://liarcatchers.com/wrongful_death.html

 

Troopers say investigators have been to the area before and that they received a tip about a more precise location. When asked if they were searching for a possible murder weapon, police wouldn’t comment on that or give any other details about what they are looking for.

 

As of noon, investigators has not found anything and said it’s always a possibility that they don’t find anything throughout the day.

 

Police say 68-year-old Sue Jones was beaten to death in her bedroom on Feb. 4, 2010, by a man who had allegedly entered the home to steal money without knowing Jones was there. Police say Jones’ boyfriend discovered her body and called authorities.

 

The suspect, 30-year-old Nicholas Willinger, entered a not guilty plea in the case in May. He has been indicted on all charges against him – murder, robbery and burglary. He was arrested on the fourth anniversary of Jones’ death.

Police say it was Ciji Jefferson, a woman who lived near Jones and even rode her bus, who put Willinger up to the burglary by telling him the victim had money at the house and that she would not be home at a certain time. Police say the two had agreed to split the money.

 

Jefferson was arrested in Florida in January and was extradited to Kentucky to face burglary charges to which she pleaded not guilty.

Police say it is possible others will face charges in the case, too, but have not released any other details
