Someday he would get even. I dont agree with calling him a coward, at least not for the shooting. In the book, I tried to present the towns side of the killing and to question those who said it is always wrong to take a life outside of the law. As for myself, and this lends itself to my statement about the passage of time and how it can cleanse some of the more untoward facts in the drama, Ive always cheered for the bad guy wrestlers. i seriously doubt the town would have done better then its current state, its a very small village in the middle of nowhere. No One Saw A Thing centers around the 1981 murder of Ken Rex McElroy in Skidmore Missouri and other crimes committed in the town and surrounding area over the years. BB, mr. maclean, i was just wondering what did the people of skidmore think about trena. Yet, it was in fact the very same legal system that allowed Ken McElroy to get away with what he did for all those years, also failed to bring his killers to justice. You add it up :O. this person is a moron he was killed by a local resident this person must be smoking dope cause their high as a kite right now , why would an outsider kill him, it was a local, somebody who knew him. This was verified. Del and my grandpa has hauled cattle together. McElroy moved out of his family home to be with Alice, but this relationship was no different from his previous ones. I commented on how nice the station was, and asked if they worked on cars, as i noticed what looked to be an attached garage. I agree that Ken McElroy haunts the town, and always will. Anyways, it says this guy shot a 70yo inthe neck? Can you give the straight scoop on that?. McElroy should have been taken care of by law enforcement officers and the courts. And their is there. As the old proverb says; Desperate times call for desperate measures.. it was truly scary , I seen McElroy back in early 81 . He told you to get your facts straight but didnt offer the facts that he claims were genuine. I just heard that a new cafe has opened in Skidmore, in the old B & B grocery store. At the time, McElroy was still married to his third wife, Alice Woods. The property appears fenced off & unused but adjacent to a larger property containing a current and newish residence.
