Arkansas resident Cody McCann was only 20 years old when he was found dead in the woods. An investigation would soon label his death a homicide. McCann's relatives have been left devastated, not just by his murder, but the discovery of one of the men accused of playing a role, described as a close friend of the entire family.
On January 10th, 2015, Cody McCann went missing. For almost a week police searched for him before he was found in the woods a week later in south Pulaski County in Arkansas.
Clifton King and Ted Warner, both 28, were taken into custody prior to Cody's body being found.
The arrest report lists Hiram Contreras as a third suspect in the death of Cody McCann. The report states that the three suspects taped McCann's hands and mouth, took him deep in the woods, and shot him in the back with a shotgun.
For almost the past seven months, police have been looking for Contreras.
Earlier this week, McCann's brother, Tracy McCann, and father, Stacy McCann, went to the spot where he was murdered. According to Tracy, King and Contreras were neighbors, and Contreras was known for years as a close family friend. While learning of his brother's death was obviously devastating, knowing Contreras is believed to have played a role has made the tragedy even worse.
Although no motive has been released in the media, Tracy McCann admits that his brother was involved in drugs, and that he tried hard to get him out of the lifestyle and away from people like the men accused of murdering him. Sadly it wouldn't happen soon enough.
If you have any information on this case, you are asked to call the Pulaski County Sheriff's Office.
Thoughts? In regards to Hiram's alleged involvement, the old saying "With friends like that, who needs enemies?" definitely applies. I've seen people speculate on the motive but this is the bottom line: Cody McCann did not deserve to die. It doesn't matter what the motive was. He was a young man and got caught up in drugs like many young people unfortunately do. The fact remains this wasn't just a murder, this was an execution. This isn't somebody murdered after a split second of someone getting mad at them. Cody was marched into the woods, likely knowing he was about to die. And then was shot in the back in cold blood. It's brutal, callous, and the McCann family deserves justice. So if you know where Hiram Contreras is hiding, you've got to do the right thing and make that call.
