It would be great if some show like "Cold Justice" would look at this case.

It's been 12 years now and still no arrest or motive. I think this case needs a fresh set of eyes, not from the local police but from the outside.

This case was covered in 4 parts on Crime News Daily. I hope it helps.

Thanks for the video. All I can say is this was poor police wok, mislabeling blood. While they put all this focus on Scott Ponder's wife, the case is going cold.

It does sound like poor police work. How sad that the family had to be tortured by LE with that whole messed up "whose the daddy" blood mix up for 18 months. It was only resolved by the family exhuming Scott's body. So sad.

It sounds like the motive was the business. Who was loosing customers to that shop? There was a mention that they won awards in a Las Vegas convention, who was jealous? It sounds like a hit. Kill everyone who is there and they will be out of business.

Unreal!!

 

[tlcya]

Just wow. This is huge, closure at last, some answers at least for families left wondering what happened and why?

 

[TTF14]

Wait, he doesn't know "how they ended up on his property?" Why would he confess to the 4 motor bike shop murders and then say that?

And who are the other two bodies?

TK's Linked In shows him as a graphic designer until November 2003, the month of the murders. Looks like he quit his job and fled town. He is listed as a student 2003-07 and realtor from 2006.

Interesting comment regarding a motive for the four killed. A prison debt and a hit man. Unbelievable!

[h=1]Widower of Superbike Motorsports victim says case unsettling[/h]

The families of the four people killed in the Superbike Motorsports shop in Chesnee 13 years ago today finally have the answers that have eluded them for so long.

“We signed four warrants on Todd Kohlhepp today with a signed confession that he did this crime,” Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright announced late Saturday. “We’re not close to being done with all the things that we have to do. We’re just not.”

Terry Guy, the widower of Beverly Guy and stepfather of Scott Ponder, was unsettled after hearing from Sheriff's Office investigators about Kohlhepp's confession.
He said he spoke to a sergeant two hours before Wright announced the development to the media.
He said there's no doubt about whether Kohlhepp is the man responsible.

Wow, I'm still in shock over here. I figured his confession was just a way to get more attention and he was lying, but he really did it. He was released from prison in AZ in 2001 and then gunned down 4 people just two years later. I know he served his sentence and couldn't have been kept in prison, but if only...
