Deputies said that on January 10 at about 1:30 p.m., they responded to the 8200 block of Crum Road in Walkersville for the report of a suspicious car in a field.
The caller said the car had its flashers on and had been there since 7:00 a.m.
When deputies arrived at the scene, they found Boots inside the car.
“This very disturbing murder has been a non-stop priority for our agency since it occurred in early January. This crime is another example of individuals from outside of this county committing violent crimes locally and somehow believing their crimes won’t be solved,” said Jenkins.
