Even though she was “evicting” her nephew, tell me...
Who goes to buy a horse at 15-minutes to MIDNIGHT?!?
From the MSNBC article:
“Earlier in the day, the nephew had been ordered by his aunt to move out of her house by midnight and to take his belongings - including the horse, said state police Lt. Bart Taylor.
Pollitt warned her nephew she would kill the horse if it wasn’t offer her property by midnight, Garrett said. So the nephew contacted Hill, who arrived late Monday to pick up the animal, the sheriff said.”

They didn't.
The shooting took place at 11:45pm. Remember, Hill went there with the family, looked at the horse, closed the deal and then loaded the horse into the trailer. All this could have started at 9pm or 10pm.
The dead woman wanted to evict her nephew and the horse.
If so, why would she ask for the horse to be unloaded from the trailer?!
It sounds like this woman lost it mentally.
Her nephew had been given til midnight to get his stuff off her property.
If he just found out about it, it would make sense.
The apparent urgency of getting the horse sold kind of indicates to me that it was not safe after midnight.
The $63,000.00 question. With his wife AND daughter.
Suspicious circumstances. Armed property owner tells tresspassers to get out around midnight. One tresspasser refuses, produces a weapon thinking he is the law (Out of uniform? Off duty?) and kills the rightful owner.
The policeman should have known better, went to court for the money and/or the purchased property.
The cop deserves, at the very least, to lose his job.
Yea got a point there all right.
I’ve bought and sold quite a few and light helps a lot when you load ‘em out.
Starting to sound a lot like a bit of horse thieving going on under the cover of a badge.
But we all know that all cops are honest don’t we?
