Need details about this case, PLEASE! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

For personal reasons. The only details I have is that a man killed an older man and stole his yellow truck. I can't remember if the suspect was somehow related to the victim or not. Oh yeah, apparently he not only killed the older man, but set him on fire and then made off with his truck. I'm sure I seen it but I've forgotten. Curiously, has anyone seen an update to this case? Yes or no?

I don't remember the name of either the victim or the suspect, but I have an idea as to what segment you are talking about. I remember the following details: The victim was said to have been the suspect's boss. The murder occured in early 1988, in or around Odessa, Texas.

I have this segment on tape. The man who was murdered's name was Neal Jennings. The man whom they believe did it's name was Bill Roberts (not sure if that was an alias or not). I believe he had dark brown hair and a mustache. There was no update on the segment anyway. Let me know if you need any more details and I can rewatch it.

Well the other day I was watching UM and someone who I won't give details about explained to me how they helped catch someone on the show. This person gave me the details of this case and remembered that what stood out about the suspect was his "long greasy hair" and his tattoo. Apparently he was hanging out in the country in Northern California.

I know a guy named Bill Roberts that fits that (vague) description. He used to beat up a lot of folks. He even beat up an 80 year old man. This was in the 70's. That Bill Roberts lives in Vancouver, Canada now. -But what are the odds of that being any connection?
