Baskins & Glover: What's a Little Murder Between Friends?

This week marks the fifth anniversary of the murders of Gary Wayne Baskins and Kayla Glover. Baskins was shot execution style, and Glover's death was reportedly merely collateral damage. Shot in the femoral artery, she bled out within minutes.

While no arrests have ever been made in the Colbert County shootings, many believe the man who authorized the hit is already incarcerated. For many years, this man was closely associated with Baskins, but drew the line at theft of his ill-gotten gains.

The one-time friend is currently serving a 20 year prison sentence based on two assault cases in Lauderdale County. He's also facing a murder charge for killing a fellow inmate. He won't be home anytime soon (read: ever).

We're sure the Baskins and Glover families would like more closure than this, but it may never come. Authorities can do only so much. Without a confession in this case, the anniversary of the Lauderdale couple's death may be blog fodder for years to come.
