These cases makes me think a lot about how it all happened. That ring was maybe dropped during the crime.

I wonder if that well worn class ring was in the possession of the murderer. 1999 seems too early for the shop owner. I would say it was the murderer but that put him in his mid thirties instead of twenties maybe a brothers ring or just one he had stolen.

He could had been a drug user or something hoping to get some cash out of it. It's either crudely made or well worn. It could had been just plated and the store owner wouldn't buy it. Then he got mad and lost his temper then deciding to rob the store to pay for his fix as a after thought.

My high school ring was stolen the year after I graduated (twelve years before this, just in case you are wondering).

I used to get shivers thinking the thief may leave it somewhere else they did something illegal.

"Coin Shop tips not panning out

Tips have ranged from people seeing someone in a park who matches the description of the suspect to a landlord thinking his tenant could be the killer, Long said"

Update from NCIC....


Quote:
Cheyenne, Wyoming Detectives are currently working several leads in this case. Based upon the timeline of events the suspect was in the shop for only a few minutes and took only a small amount of coins. It is believed that in addition to some raw and slabbed dollars missing the suspect also took proof sets dated 1936,1937,1938 and 1950. A more detailed inventory list is being compiled at the present time.

To facilitate the investigation, we are looking for anyone who had been in contact with Dwight Brockman, the owner of The Coin Shop, days prior to or on the day of the offense.

If anyone has any information please contact:

I would assume the coin shop was also armed, though?

My LCS has Glocks and what not ready in case.

Cheyenne Police Chief: Several Suspects In Double Homicide


Quote:
Cheyenne Police Chief Brian Kozak says investigators have identified "several suspects" in a double homicide that happened at a Cheyenne business last summer.

But he says police can't move forward on the case until they get back DNA evidence from a Colorado laboratory-and no one seems to know when that might happen.

Hope that they are able to wrap this up and provide some closure to the families of the victims.
