The whole mess does raise a few questions. I am very familier with the literature that was being distributed and it was much more than just the newspaper article. What was Ronnie Bates hiding from? As someone with intimate knowlege of the terrain of Deep Creek,it is quite possible Mr Bates died from a combination of drug abuse and physical activity. Drugs like methamphetamine and cocaine are really hard on the heart. Combine that with some coronary artery disease and exercise and.....well....this is something that bears consideration.
It seems like if somebody murdered someone else,they would try to get rid of any evidence like a car pretty quick. Mike's actions involving the car dont make him guilty of anything except having an abandoned car towed. I do know there is some issues involving William,Hotspringer Roe and Mike from their business deals gone sour, but to run around implying somebody murdered this guy is way out of line without concrete evidence.
And then, Katrina ties it all together with this article about the shameful dealings of the FBI and the mob. The whole thing is wild! So what I get out of this thread is Mike gets away with murder because he is a government informent according to Katrina. Well...I do know one thing,there isnt much going on with the locals to justify a big wheel snitch unless he is there to count the junk cars. In my opinion, Katrina is just stirring things up by calling code enforcement. She is out to get Mike Castro no matter what!
