Ok Marie, I spoke with my Dad, Dewey Lee Young today at lunch. Here is the story that he said you probably won't find in any paper. Dallas Delay, from Poplar Bluff had a junk yard in Van Buren. He was convicted by a jury for running a chop shop. Mr. Grandin (not sure I have that last name spelled correctly) was on that jury. Mr. Gradin got into his car one evening and Dallas Delay was hiding in the back seat. He was shot in the head. However, the report says that Mr. Grandin was killed by a stray bullet from a hunter. Another juror lived in Oklahoma. Dallas Delay went to this juror's home to kill him, but the juror recognized him and fled out the back door. So, in turn Mr. Delay saw the juror's child playing out front and ran over him and killed him. Dallas Delay was the primary person who led the murder against the Kitterman family. Dad isn't sure, but he believes Mr. Kitterman's mother was a McDowell which is how my great grandmother was related to them. Dad has this information as Dallas Delay told the authorities he had planned to kill every juror and their family that had convicted him. What Dad didn't know was if Dallas had served time for the chop shop crime or if he was awaiting sentencing when the murders happened. The original trial that Mr. Kitterman had served as a juror on was in Van Buren. Sheila Dunagan

This sure has been interesting as well as a horrifying story. How sad too. So many people lost. Thanks to all who made posts. I will count my blessings today.

Sheila - Bob Kitterman was Uncle Emil McDowell's grandson, so was your grandfather's and my grandmother's nephew.
