In 2006, investigators in the small town of Hogtai, Texas recovered an estimated 32 hours of what can be best described as home video footage from the backyard of the home where Jack Barnes had previously inhabited.
"I didn't know what the hell to think," said John Tuley, sheriff of Hogtai. "We noticed some dirt that was a little out of place, and we decided that we should dig a hole."
Within two hours of receiving the direct orders from Tuley, a small crew of city workers had excavated the rare finding from the home's backyard.
"At first, I was not at all happy," said Grandy Pippins, the home's current owner. "After I thought about it, though, I realized that I really wanted to see what was on those damn tapes."
Indeed, the tapes, since they've been discovered, have been the talk of Hogtai.
"Everybody wants to see these home videos," said Tuley. "Everybody wants to find out just what in the hell happened back in 2001, when three people died and nobody, to this day, knows exactly how. Except me, anyway. I know how they all died. I've seen the tapes."
The tapes, currently in the hands of Tuley, will be properly released, albeit in a condensed, 75 minute version, sometime this October.Welcome to Hog Tie, Texas, a town where life is fragile, justice is personal, and murder is uncomfortably common.
