One would think he would resign. But then, who would think a sheriff would behave like that. I am really happy to see this all coming out for the families of the missing people. On another note, is there no way no how that any of this could be connected to the Tommy Eastep case? It is just all in such close proximity and the subject matter seems to match....Wouldn't you just resign at this point if you were him? There's no coming back from this.

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) will hold a news conference Friday morning to release new information in the disappearances of Molly Miller and Colt Haynes.
The news conference will take place at 11 a.m. inside the public library, located at 320 E. Street NW in Ardmore, Oklahoma. OSBI agents will update the public on their efforts to solve the case.
News9.com plans to live-stream this conference.
OSBI Director Stan Florence will host the press conference and release information on a reward for information. The case agent will also speak.

That has been brought up here due to a few similarities:
1) They disappeared on the same day.
2) Both cases have some sort of tie to Meth.
3) They are close in Proximity. You can even see one of Tommy's last facebook photos taken in Davis, OK, which is not far from Ardmore.
Despite these similarities, I'm going to have to concur with OkieGranny and say that Tommy's disappearance probably more related to the area in which his truck was found. I believe it was coincidence.
Tommy's case seems more like a suicide to me. He was kicked out of a family reunion just prior to that for being high, that must have been very embarrassing for him.
If it was suicide, then why haven't we found him yet? They have searched that area quite a bit.
Deason died this week
Not trying to be rude, but that's not a valid argument. There's so many cases where missing people turn up in areas that have already been searched. It's very common.
Sheriff Joe has resigned according to Paula Miller Fielder on the Operation Find Molly Miller page on Facebook.
