Doniphan man murdered - one in custody

I HOPE TO HELL THAT TOM CATES AND HIS ASSOCIATES GET WHAT THEY DESERVE - A BUBBA IN PRISiON WHO TAKES THEM ON AS HIS "GIRLFRIENDS"!!!!!!! !!! WHAT AN ASS TOM CATES IS - NO IF's, AND's OR BUTS!!!!!!!!!!

JUST LET HIM TRY HIS "INSANITY" DEFENSE OR TRYING TO "RID" SOCIETY OF A BAD PERSON!!!!!

We that knew Randy knew that he was a very KIND and CARING person!!!!!!!!!!

there had to be a good reason for tom to have done this he wouldnt have done this for no reason something was wrong very wrong for tom to have done this i dont know randy but if tom did this b-cuz randy was messing with underage girls then to me that would be a good reason

I dont care what you say noone has no REASON to just up and kill someone thatss kinda sick that you say he prolly had a good reason If something like that was going on the police should freaking handle it. Im sure it was something different like idk DRUGS

I've known Randy over 20 years....My kids grew up around him....I don't believe for one second he'd mess with a young girl...
I agree with "Wondering"....There is no good reason to MURDER someone!!!
I think Tom Cates is just a punk who never learned how to handle himself!!!
It don't take a very big man to pull a trigger....

My condolences to Randy's remaining family...They are in my thoughts and prayers...
I am sorry for my rude remarks about Tom...But that is personally how I feel about him...and anyone else, for that matter who could take anothers life so easily...

Tommy Cates was an addict. Tommy would do anything for no reason at the spare of the moment. I hope he gets the death penalty.If he does not let him out in Ripley County and lets see how long he would last.

While he was sleeping no less!! Knew better than to mess with Randy while he was awake n to his face! COWARD! or COWARDS! whichever the case may be... Randy was no child molester!!! Knew him since I was about 14 and that was 30 yrs ago.

THis is so sad, I knew Randy and my sister dated him, I can't believe these meth heads did what they did. A truly sad situation, my heart goes out to his family

amen

this is so sad. i dont no the whole story about why but i went to school with Tommy and i cant believe it was him. in school he didnt seem like a bad guy, but i havent seen him in years. so i dont no what his life has been like. its just sad that this has happened. i wonder how his brother is taking this.

Ain't this the same Randy Hamilton, that had something to do with shooting up "Sawmill Sally" and leaving her in the trunk of a car in Arkansas? Karma is a bitch!!!!!!!

Addict kills drug dealer - sounds like a family affair. In my opinion, one less addict and one less drug dealer on the streets - win win situation.

DISGUSTING!! You are ALL disgusting. While I tend to agree with Happy Camper, I've known Randy all my life, and I find it almost impossible to fathom that he would hurt anyone like that. I also KNOW that NOONE KNOWS (no one on here anyway)what or why happened. The fact remains, everyone is letting their emotions dictate their actions. Tom is in jail and Randy is dead. Both families and friends are greiving and trying to cope with the aftermath. Why don't some of you get off the computer and go try to be a reasonable friend/neighbor/fellow human being by giving your support and maybe a (*&^&%^&%$#^%$ casserole or something useful?

you need to shut your fu**ing mouth. that has nothing to do with what happened to him!! No one deserves what Tom did to Randy....

Why the LLEH would you make a statement like that...
UNLESS....Never mind...
let's just leave it as...
Foolish people saying foolish things!!!

Granted no one deserves to be killed over dope but............... if it was because of child molestation he got what he deserved and for all you tree huggin lets all get along coom by ya poor poor guy people........ ill bet if it was your child that was molested you would be in jail too ........ i know i would be

FYI...I have a child who was molested...She is now a grown woman with children of her own...And doing fine...
Did I want to Kill the Bastard that molested her...
YOU BET I DID...
Instead I turned my attention towards her...she's needed me worse than I needed the sweet satisfaction of revenge...
It would have only added to her suffering having to grow up without one of her parents...and the added ridicule of having a parent labeled a MURDERER!!!
This is a NO WIN situation for either family....For what ever the reason...

get ur info straight before u say shit.

randy never molested anyone...if you know
tom you know he had a temper..he was ,has been
and always will be a loose cannon. he has
beaten up people run over people..just this
time went to far.
