Stenson Murder
Still more background on Jennifer R. Gaddis and the men who are accused of murdering Dernell Stenson. Seems the men were stopped in Missouri on a drug bust:
The Arizona Republic has learned that a day after Stenson alerted police about the threat, two men later charged in his death were stopped by authorities in Missouri on suspicion of unrelated drug activities as they drove from Illinois to Arizona.
The men, half brothers Kevin G. Riddle, 43, and Reginald A. Riddle, 19, were stopped Oct. 22 near St. Louis. A spokeswoman for the federal Drug Enforcement Administration in Missouri confirmed the men were released after being forced to surrender $11,182 in cash they were carrying.
Under federal law, agents can seize assets from suspects found to be carrying drugs or if sniffer dogs alert the agents to the scent of drugs.
This case gets stranger everyday.
