Okay, so, today I wanted to talk about this thing I got myself into, all about Porky Bradberry in Aiken. It’s kind of a messy story, but I’ll walk you through what happened.
It all started when I saw a news piece about a body being found in some house in Aiken. They called it a “suspicious death,” which, you know, already sounds pretty wild. The name mentioned was Bradberry, and apparently, this guy used to own a jewelry store called Porky Bradberry Jewelry Store. So, I got curious and started digging around a bit.
- First, I looked up the news reports. They were saying it was a big mystery and all. The local TV station, WRDW-TV or something like that, was all over it. They were talking about how the police found this Bradberry guy dead in a bedroom. Pretty grim stuff.
- Then, I found out that they arrested some young dude named Alexander Gage Boone, 27 years old, also from Aiken. The arrest warrants were mentioning him, so I figured he must be involved somehow.
Here’s where it gets even weirder. I stumbled upon some old case from 1982 about a Linda Bradberry. The police thought they could solve it back then when they arrested five guys, including her husband. No idea if this is the same Bradberry, but the name coincidence was too much to ignore. I tried to find out more about this but hit a lot of dead ends. Seems like a real cold case now.
So, I spent a good chunk of my day just going through all this information, trying to piece it together. It’s like one of those true-crime stories you see on TV, but this one is right here in Aiken. I kept searching, hoping to find something more concrete, but it’s all just bits and pieces right now.
My Efforts
I tried to connect the dots between the old case and this new one. Checked if there were any family connections, you know, to see if this Alexander Boone guy had any ties to the Bradberrys from way back when. Looked through public records, old newspapers, anything I could get my hands on, really. But nothing solid came up. It felt like I was chasing shadows, to be honest.
In the end, I didn’t really solve anything. I just ended up with more questions than answers. But it was definitely an interesting way to spend the day. I guess sometimes you just gotta follow these rabbit holes and see where they lead, even if they don’t lead anywhere conclusive. That’s all for my story today.
