A man's body was found floating near a bulkhead off of 77th and Channelview this morning.

That's horrible Froggier. Hopefully the tattoo will help in identifying the man quickly.
 
Whoa. They tossed this man in bound and alive. Somebody was mighty mad at Gary Bell.
 
I keep looking for the suspects names, but i have yet to locate them. Normally Galveston Daily News has no problems getting info like that. They just walk up to the desk sgts and are handed the booking reports for the night. Wonder why they are not releasing the names?

Read the first two articles. These people were involved in a burglary and id theft ring.

Whoa. I was figuring it was somebody that knew him. They have chicks in on that and everything. A band of them. I was wondering though they stole the victim's PT Cruiser. How did he get a vehicle if he was just released from prison? I guess he wasn't staying at the hotel, but had hooked up with the prostitute. Man probably had a place to stay. That's some vicious people they caught up with.

Parents of a man who was hogtied, beaten, choked and drowned gave their son's murderer a piece of their mind Friday after a judge sentenced him to 40 years in prison.

Alice Rodgers and Ferris Bell told the court their wishes for William Henry Perry, 50, in the April 12, 2008, slaying of Gary Wayne Bell... A jury convicted Perry of murder Oct. 27.

After admitting, only to an extent, his role in a torture slaying at a Texas City hotel, a man who pleaded guilty to murder learned his punishment Thursday.

Brian O'Neal Richardson, 28, was sentenced to 41 years in prison.
