30 plus years is a long time. But remember that the victim had a family. Maybe that brings closure to them. And I doubt the FBI was looking to solve a murder case. They were working on the present when they uncovered where the body was buried. Remeber this all started with stolen goods in Providence.

With this case, now the state theme song should be Dueling Banjo's. Next we will be hearing you look like a hog boy, bend over that log, boy. Ed and Matt you two are so on target with your remarks, they are great. The locals will have sour pusses on their mugs with what you said. Keep up with your insights and remarks. The people of the state my wake up if they start seeing the world is watching and is laughing! Again Thank you!

Ed you called that one, look at the picture of the so-called victim. He looks like his family tree has one branch. People make jokes about West Virginia for being inbred. He is proof it happens or at least happened in RI. No wonder the people of this state are so stupid, it is a limited gene pool.

If you don't know your history it will effect your future. These issues have to be dealt with the now! The criminal mentality of this area and the limited gene pool has to put in its place, this is for the state to survive. Americans like to watch movies and TV shows like The Godfather and Saprono's. They don't want to live with the likes of the characters such as Joey Buttafuco, and past and present elected officals in this state who have done jail time.

If that person buried was a family member of yours you would not be saying that.
