West OK Journal

Talking about Western Oklahoma Life, News, and Events.

Oklahoma has many small out of the way cemeteries. A few weeks ago one of these small cemeteries was desecrated by some grave robbers. It's always shocking to hear this kind of news, even more so when it happens locally.
Grave robbers sneak into a cemetery and may have stolen a skull. The Beckham County Sheriff says it could be a cult ritual or fraternity stunt. The bones of Tommy Jones were scattered around his grave site. His sister says the family wants the remains returned. -- KOKH
Our prayers go to the Jones family. If you have any information about this please contact the Beckham County Sheriff's department.
