Sitting in a relatives basement. At least until the reward gets high enough.Or maybe he has local help.
To be clear on this, the mayor flat out lied on KSR, right?
DO WUT.I don't think he lied at all. I think he relayed the information he had at the time. Totally different. In situations like this, at that stage, information changes by the minute. Unfair for a large voice in the state to say it was dishonesty.
At minimum it was recklessly careless. That guy shouldn’t be in chargeI don't think he lied at all. I think he relayed the information he had at the time. Totally different.

The 10th Region girls golf tournament was supposed to be at the London Country Club next Monday but according to the KHSAA will be moved if he hasn't been caught soon. The question is when will they make the announcement it is going to be somewhere else so teams can play a practice round wherever they decide to have it. Most teams have probably played multiple times at London to get experience on that course and now they will have to possibly play a course that they may have never played before.Now the infamous world chicken festival is at risk of being cancelled. The locals are getting restless and may riot if they don't get to see Uncle Kracker.

How come?Although I see suicide as being less likely the more I hear.
It appears he planned to be in the woods for at least some period of time. So, my *opinion* is you wouldn't go hide in the woods and then kill yourself. Of course, it's possible, but would be sort of dumb. However, people do crazy things (and he's unstable).How come?
It was police.So regular civilians and not police dropped flashbangs in caves?
At minimum it was recklessly careless. That guy shouldn’t be in charge
What motivation did he have to lie?
I don’t know the guy, but your take makes the most sense.
Yeah you trollin’ and shitpostin’. There’s nothing to debate hereYou're just parroting ksr. Information changes by the second at that point. The fact info changed doesn't mean he lied. This isn't hard.
Exactly. Information was fluid. He relayed what he was told. Only Jones inexplicably made a big deal of it and his lackeys predictably lapped it up.

Matt Jones didn't make a big deal of it. He politely changed the subject, likely because the mayor's statement was bizarre and did not fit any of the known facts at the time. It seems more likely that the mayor was stupidly trying to lie to the public to tamp down fear than it was a fog of war moment.
I have no idea if the guy intentionally lied or not but that sort of reckless communication from an official can get people killed, regardless of whether it was intentional or not. Thankfully Couch had stopped shooting by the time that blabbermouth got started.

KSP have located a body around exit 49. Currently working to identify the person.
In KSP’s defense, there were some briar patches in the area around exit 49.Apparently a live streamer located it and ksp is confirming id.
If (big if) this is him there should be tons of questions about this search considering 1) its literally right where he was and 2) law enforcement didn't even find him.
Didn't stop ksp from posting up all around the state for speeding tickets though.

I know two people that searched for him and like them a lot, but I agree. I know it's a big area, but if it's Couch, it looks bad if random YouTubers found him nearby and the body has been there a while. I would feel for his family, but would put the community at ease.No offense but that definitely doesn't sound like much of a defense to me. Especially when some live streamer found the body. Thats the case no matter who it is.

Did they sleep out there for a few days? That's a much different way of knowing an area than you can get in 8 hour shifts.I said last page that the buzzards would give him up. Leave it to the rednecks that know the woods 1 day after the manhunt was called off. lol
Was talking about knowledge of the woods in general. Totally different skill set than a typical police officer. Common woods sense though to look for buzzards and walk downwind of their location until you hit the smell of something dead. Found several bucks like that during the EHD wipeout several years ago.Did they sleep out there for a few days? That's a much different way of knowing an area than you can get in 8 hour shifts.
---The end result isn't surprising but the McCoy family finding the body adds a new wrinkle. They'll be famous tomorrow. Sounds as if the manhunt kept expanding until there was so much ground to cover that it almost felt useless to continue. Makes sense the body ended up being nearby the whole time. Never bought the theories of him having some grand plan as if he was stocked up for the winter or something. He likely snapped, failed at his plan which didn't seem like much of a plan to begin with, ran panicked, and now we've got a body in the woods days later.
^ disregard if the body isn't him but I think it's him.
Most likely. But if you look near the area there are a lot of overhangs. Could have dampened the sound or projected it away from law enforcement. He could have done it before anyone was on scene too. Far fetched idea but he could have fell off one of the overhangs or tucked in to hide and bitten by a snake (doubtful in both).I would have thought someone would have heard a gunshot when he killed himself. (Assume that's how he did it.)
