Who Killed J.B. Beasley and Tracie Hawlett?
Have also seen the name David Pitts mentioned on other forums and he also had a brother. He was arrested on another murder in 2014. Anyone ever heard anything about him being connected to the murders?....
Any thoughts on this?....
OMG THE HENRY COUNTY REPORT IS BACK!!!
I grew up in ozark and graduated in 1993 and moved away. Broad st. Was known for the mansions but the closer you got to the train tracks near the high school those homes on that end were in bad shape. There was one house at 725 broad st. That was known as THE place to go for whatever. I looked it up in google maps and it is the house I remember, of course it has been renovated now so you can’t tell what a crack house it literally was back then. Although I don’t have the greatest memory from those days I spent a lot of time on that house in a drug haze. There was a young couple that were the renters there, I can picture them but can’t remember names. What bothers me is that in another forum I saw a guy post that I hung out with back then and he posted that he knew who would ave done it and if he knew then I knew that person too. Like I said my memory isn’t the greatest and even if I saw a picture it still might not jog a recognition. It does haunt me tho that area. Back in those times there were a lot, a lot, a lot of drugs in the Ozark/Wiregrass area. The cops turned their heads and I even remember them showing up at field parties in headland and even when we used to,party down in Columbia at the Dam. I remember them staying and goofing around with everyone and even having a drink or two. We were KIDS! All of us around 16 and 17, mixed with young 20 somethings and even some younger than us. How the hell do you just allow this much less,join in? There is also no freaking way that the cops were not aware of that house on Broad. If was always filled during the day with those skipping school and night parties.
Now I knew all this 6 years before those girls were killed but who’s to say the same things and locations were still happening then also. Who knows. I do know for a damn fact that those girls in no way got lost after leaving that gas station. No way. It is seriously not that hard to find 231 from there. I don’t buy that. It was so mentally exhausting and upsetting going back in my head to those days and trying to remember details about the area. Way too much **** went down around there and none of it was good back then.
