Additionally, it is said that community organizers have offered a reward for any information leading to the arrests because no suspects have yet been identified. The informant will not be identified, and the incentive is worth $3,800.
Fox News also noted that less than two hours after the corpse and the pickup truck were discovered, a missing person complaint for Johnny was made, according to documents from the Stuttgart Police Department.
In a Facebook post regarding Johnny Howard’s passing, a professor who had been educating him for three years praised him for having excellent manners and being a friend to everyone.
She wrote, “Johnny was a kid. He did dumb stuff just like every kid – but that didn’t make him a bad kid just like it doesn’t make your kid a bad kid. Trust me, all of our kids are included. Johnny was not evil. He was not bad. Not on any day ever could you make me believe he somehow deserved this. He was not that guy.”
