Do we know anything about FH? Maritial status etc? I am wondering whether it is possible that he was the clean up guy for someone else? A child could possibly be in the same age group as P.

No sleuthing the wife, ex-wife, or live in girlfriend or any children of same....jk...I'd be asking too.

are there any of the above? But we can sleuth him, right?

How do you think LE is trying to find FH? Are they interviewing family and other associates? Do they have locations staked out?

I'm guessing they aren't trying to hard, at least by using the general public, since we have so little to go on. No description of an automobile or description of any locations he was known to frequent. "Might be in Georgia" or whatever they said, isn't narrowing it down for me enough. I'll keep my eyes open though lol.

I can’t believe this guy hasn’t been found yet. I too am wondering if anyone is looking for him since LE has been so quiet.

Hey everyone ... just to clarify

Members are allowed to form and express an opinion on the unnamed co-workers based on what has been said in MSM about them, or by them and/or their representative. They just can't sleuth out other public or private information about the individuals who are neither victim nor POI/suspect and post about it on the thread. Also, as always ... opinions expressed cannot cast aspersions against individuals who are not officially named POI/suspect, insinuate their involvement, or make direct or indirect accusations against them.

If you think a post violates TOS, please just use the Report feature to let us know rather than trying to moderate the thread yourself. Moderating is not all black and white. That's what Mods are here for and it keeps the thread from getting angsty between members.

Any questions about the above, please private message a Mod/Admin rather than discussing it on the thread.

Thanks.

Apparently LE doesn't want help from the public since they haven't provided any information other than his picture. There is a LE assignment called "interdiction" in which they watch certain places for particular cars/people (probably in addition to other tasks). I think LE would be doing that as a minimum.

Regarding FH's marital status. I have not seen any evidence that he has been or is married.

Perhaps FH was really into the Southern Rock Band Cover that was playing that night. Has there been any mention of what band they were covering? Is FH a huge fan of the Country Rock sensation, the band, 'Alabama?' Has anyone interviewed his family or friends which is usual in case. We will hear, "he was such a nice guy, always lit up every room he graced." (sic) no pun intended, honestly. Lol. Was he the only black man there rocking out to a tune such as, 'Sweet Home Alabama?' Is he more like Tupac or more like Jimi Hendrix? It seems odd he has vanished into thin air, imo.

In my opinion he was into pretty blondes and a player at being a suave ladies man who knows what he was when the mask came off.
Why are they waiting for him to show up? Someone knows where he is hiding in plan sight.

LE has been rather stealth through this entire investigation. They had been searching properties for Paighton's body for 3 days and were able to keep keep it from the media. So my guess is they are working behind the scenes. Closely working with other counties/states to track him down. Just a guess on my part though...

What I find rather striking in this case that you always *always* see in other cases, is the lack of media about FH.
There have been zero interviews with friends, family, kids, wives, ex-wives, co-workers, ex-coworkers, neighbors or fame-seekers masquerading as any of the above.
We don't know where or if he works/worked, we don't know what kind of car he has, or if he even has one, and we don't really have a clue where he is.
There is almost nothing about him in the media except he's an ex-con wanted for a bizarre charge associated with poor Paighton being buried at his relative's abandoned house.

Where are all his friends, family, etc., and where is the media? It really seems bizarre they aren't really digging around on this case.

I'm going to add that I think that some of his online data has been scrubbed.

I don't imagine they are concentrating all their efforts on him. I'm sure like any other suspect that is on their wanted roster. I would imagine they have contacted local LE in any neighboring state where they have viable information that he may be hiding. Although most of us would like to see him found and brought to justice, it is still just a class c felony. I know what the maximums are, but it is doubtful, even with his record that he will get anywhere near the max. More likely, he will plea down to a lesser charge anyhow. That's, if they have enough to prosecute him and win. Trust me when it comes to the legal side of this, there are many factors, that may not even see this go to trial, when they catch up with him. For now, I am reserving judgement on what exactly happened. This guy should never have been back out on the streets.
That my opinion and it has nothing to do with this case.

Crimestoppers lists 381 outstanding warrants for Jefferson County. Some for crimes way more serious.

Not to mention the ridiculous amount of speculation that IMO could help a defense attorney if it does go to trial.
