Investigation Day 1

The sheriff's department was called to Duffy's Bar & Grill because a man who had been drinking at the establishment claimed to have a severed human hand in his possession.

Investigation Day 2

The next morning, the Oxford Weekly Planet made sure the community knew all about it.

Once farmer Johnny Reagle sobered up, the detectives had a talk with him about the hand and his claim that it belonged to his ex.

After that conversation, Johnny agreed to show the detectives the location on his farm where he found the "root," which led to another discovery that captured the neighbors' attention.

Investigation Day 3

By early the next morning, investigators had identified a missing person report filed on July 7th that could be connected to the case.

A uniformed officer who works the graveyard shift contacted the detectives with some information he thought might be relevant to their investigation.
