Slayer Case Deepens as Theft Tied to Murder Probe
Glenn reports an initial theft amount of 11.60 but says totals likely exceed that figure. Scott, who delivered plant products, is accused of diverting cash from stores. A $100 theft found in one store suggests broader losses across multiple sites. The Coles County grand jury may hear the case. Judge John F. Spivey presides. Mattoon police, the sheriff, state’s attorney, and the state Bureau of Criminal Investigation pursue details amid conflicting statements. A lie detector test indicated Scott’s dishonesty. Scott implicated Hanson, meeting him in Menard State Penitentiary, and both men allegedly involved in the fatal beating with a 12 gauge shotgun found near the plant.
