The murder of James McVey is what we call an unorganized murder. There are many things that tell us this. James was a low risk person in a high-risk section of the city of Fort Worth, Texas. His killers let his body lie where he was killed. They did not try to move it or hide it. They left a bloody footprint at the scene. They also left expended shells at the scene that identified their weapon. I believe the killers placed the flash light and box cutter knife by the body. The painting of the face is revenge of a sort or to try and make it look like a gang style killing. If this is true then the killers had time to stage the scene but because of total darkness and not wanting to leave their head lights on, stepped in the blood. I know this sounds complicated but that moves it to a combination of organized and disorganized. That tells us that the killers tried to gather their wits about them and began a cover up of the scene. James was alive when they painted him. There are tears in the paint. This information came from the autopsy and we know this is true. As the case progresses we ask you the reader to give us your input. No one really has a handle on this case. If the police did they would have solved it long ago.

Found shot to death
February 25, 1994

These men were the last to see James Alive (James - Center)

James and his brother, a well-known musician in the Waco-Dallas area. He and James were very close.

James truck keys were in his back pocket, as though he got out of his truck to look at something and had placed them there.

We think this scene was staged by killer. You tell us what you think?

Foot prints leading away from scene. Police say a Nike shoe.

Position of body and spray paint on tire indicate staged crime scene. Box cutter knife was not taken in as evidence. FWPD assumed it was victims. We believe if it was victims, it should have been tested for blood.

Was James on his back when painted and then rolled or is scene staged?

Fort Worth PD stubs out cigarette by tire and lays radio and evidence sacks on car.

A pair of killers (notice bloody footprints) moved around quickly in their exit. Was this the struggle with James? Give us your input.
