"Disagreeing has never been so much fun!"
Possibly Framed. Cover Up!
Actual Killer Has Been Caught
On July 17th 2010 election chairman Jim Miller was found in the trunk of a car burnt and shot. TBI has arrested Jessica Kennedy Powers and claims no one else will be arrested. Does this seem legitimate or is something fishy?

She is a small woman and that is one reason to think something is strange about this. Another reason is because this is Monroe County, known for law enforcement corruption. I don't buy it. Even if she held him at gunpoint he could have easily overpowered her. I can't see him climbing into the trunk of his car willingly and I sure don't see her getting him in there after she shot him. Something is rotten here.....

That statement that no one else will be arrested doesn't sound quite right. She doesn't appear to be a big young woman, and I wonder if she would be able to stuff a grown man into the trunk of a car all by herself. There's just not enough information here.

According to WATE: Source http://www.wate.com/Global/story.asp?S=13788004
MADISONVILLE (WATE) - Investigators have arrested a woman months after Monroe County Election Commission Chairman Jim Miller was found shot to death with his body set on fire in the trunk of his car.
Jessica Kennedy Powers, 27, was indicted Wednesday by the Monroe County Grand Jury on one count of felony murder, aggravated robbery, arson of personal property and abuse of a corpse.
Miller's body was found on July 17 on Sands Road in Monroe County.
Powers is being held in the Monroe County Jail on a $500,000 bond. She was served with the indictment in the Meigs County Jail while being held on unrelated charges.
"The charge of aggravated robbery lends itself to motive and that's all we're able to confirm currently," Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Kristin Helm said in an email.
She also says Powers and Miller knew each other, "but the extent of their relationship is unknown at this time."
No other suspects will be arrested, according to Helm.
While they don't mention the size of Jessica Kennedy Powers one has to wonder how this individual woman murdered Mr. Miller and managed to get him in the trunk of his car with no help. I smell something fishy.
