JACKSON COUNTY, MS (WLOX) -
WLOX News has uncovered new information concerning a mysterious kidnapping and murder investigation in South Mississippi. It's a murder case with no dead body, and connections to a white supremacist group.
The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation confirmed to WLOX News the remains of the victim have never been found.
According to MBI, that victim was lured to a home in Gautier on December 2, 2010. Once there, he was beaten, bound and put in the trunk of a car. Investigators believe he was eventually killed in Forrest County.
It wasn't until November 19, 2011, that Eric Glenn Parker was arrested in Hattiesburg and charged with murder. Authorities say Parker is a member of the white supremacist group the Aryan Brotherhood, who reportedly bragged about killing a man.
Over the past few weeks, the Jackson County Sheriff's Department became involved in the investigation, and Tuesday arrested three men on kidnapping charges. State officials confirm those men are also members of the Aryan Brotherhood.
State and local officials say the investigation is far from over, and more arrests will likely be made.
