Manhunt for Thugs in North Carolina who Burned 76-Year-Old Woman Alice


https://thegoldwater.com/news/20409-Manhunt-for-Thugs-in-North-Carolina-who-Burned-76-Year-Old-Woman-Alice


Disturbing news to report coming out of Littleton, North Carolina where law enforcement say that an elderly couple was terrorized by a pair of dangerous thugs who kicked in their door before murdering a 76-year-old woman by burning her alive.

On Friday morning, law enforcement say that a masked duo of armed thugs burst through the front door of a home on 119 Mulberry Court, owned by John and Nancy Alford, in a shocking home invasion that would turn into a day of horror for the retired lovers.

Nancy Alford was forced into a vehicle by the one of the masked men, who then drove her to the State Employees' Credit Union branch in Roanoke Rapids and forced her to withdrawal the $1000 limit from the ATM, while the second armed suspect stated home with her husband John Alford, a Baptist minister, holding him hostage until Nancy Alford returned with cash to appease the savage criminals.

After Mrs. Alford gave the cash to the two thugs, they then tied up the elderly couple and beat John Alford within inches of his life.

Dousing the home with flammable liquids, the criminals then set the house on fire with both John and Nancy Alford tied inside to be burnt alive...........................

Fearing for his wife, John Alford tried to regain entry into the home before firefighters arrived but neighbors stopped him, saying the danger was too great with flames soaring into the sky.

Once firefighters made it to the scene, they would pull an unresponsive Nancy Alford from the home, who was pronounced dead at the scene. .........

And I hope it would hurt, that they would be paralyzed but awake for their eminent deaths.

Maybe you could offer yourself up to be the one to torture them.

State sanctioned murder is wrong every time. No special circumstances. The state torturing people, as you have outlined, has always been frowned upon by most of us. Torture is not acceptable in any way.

Here is one of the comments at one of the links. Separate yourself from the mind-set of these people.

"There is one solution for crimes such as this, the perpetrators need the same happen to them. No courts, no bleeding heart Liberal fucks telling lies to bolster a defense the perps are never going to get…just burn them!"

That they are still there to be read is even more shocking, I think. I'm glad I don't live there.

Take down the "Thegoldwater" link and remove the excerpt from the site.

"Thegoldwater" website is right wing, anti-Democratic Party, and racist.

Its a sad story, but you have a link to another site that tells it.

Thanks.
