According to Leonard Manley, when Bobby Jo showed up last Friday morning, the front door was locked and the dogs were nowhere to be found. There were at least two pit bulls, a "wolf-dog" and "coon dogs" that lived with his family members. Manley questioned why the killer or killers didn't shoot the dogs, which he described as fierce.
Leonard: Well, let's put it this way, it's really possible and you know whoever done it knew the family,cause there was two dogs there that would eat you up. I ain't gonna say no more.
Coon dogs are expensive, used for hunting saw photos of Frankie with the coon dog. Pit's are expensive also, used by dealers and dog fighting, plus people have them as pets and protection. Alot of money in breeding dogs, also. So you have pot which really isn't a major operation, but still money, possible cockfighting, roosters are very expensive, could there be dogfighting also? Some shady characters are involved with fighting animals. These are done in secret, because they're illegal. I don't think Leonard should've mentioned the dogs were gone, because LE hasn't mentioned it and that could be something they were investigating. I'm just throwing this out there, because of the dogs being missing and LE not saying it.
