The Joplin Honkies killed Sarah over her stealing from Freddy Tilton, they destroyed her body. It's sad because she was a wonderful person, they should talk to the father and son duo of the Honkies, or Shay Mcdaniels who was involved. The Police know this information, yet nothing has come from it. I feel so bad for her kids, and Father.
