@@InfamousCrimeLocations I think it’s pushing the line of respect going to crime scenes and I think going to graves 🤦🏼‍♀️ like you said it’s disrespectful x I wouldn’t be happy to see any kind of media at anyone’s grave, just not right is it. Using it for views, so…I’ll stick with you 😀 Gwen something was a mega church lady, she tragically dies in a plane crash. I’m atheist, but this annoyed me…someone went to where they were all buried on the property of the church and filmed! I won’t include my thoughts on those churches because she can’t defend herself, it wouldn’t work for us all to be sheep and all have the same views either.

Thanks Harmin. The architecture of this old building is beautiful . The story makes me wonder if all of his coworkers were telling the truth. You’d think someone would have heard a fight like that. Plus, if I found my coworker’s car door open but not him... I would have called the authorities. Don’t understand why they would assume he just rode with someone else? Someone knows what happened.

I remember the Francke homicide well having grown up there and still living there at the time it happened. I have always felt Gable was not the right guy.

Frank Gable was charged with his murder but Francke’s brother believes Gable was a patsy. Conspiracy

I'm surprised they didn't have cameras and at least one witness since he was murdered in the main corrections building. This sounds like a flawed investigation and a cover up since the main suspect was conviently let go.
