Linda Ives' theory on the deaths of Kevin Ives & Don Henry (detailed)
Alright I watched most of the video (posted below) and this is a film put together
by Linda Ives about her son Kevin's death. It is a conspiracy theory video as
indicated above but in this case I think the conspiracy is well justified and may
belay one of the most abominable crimes of the past twenty years.
What is ironic is Kevin Ives and Don Henry were simply victims of being at the
wrong place at the wrong time. According to the theory set forth by Linda Ives here
is what likely went down on the night her son and his buddy were placed on the
railroad tracks.
On August 23, 1987, Don Henry and Kevin Ives ventured out into the woods near
Little Rock, Arkansas to do some night hunting (or spotlighting as the UM segment
described it). During this time the boys apparently smoked some marijuana (enough
to find trace amounts in their systems but not enough to cause a drug overdose or a
drug stupor causing them to fall asleep on the tracks)
At some point the boys exited the woods near the railroad tracks where according to
Ives' research, a drug drop was occuring on that evening which was supervised by
the DEA (as part as what is commonly known as the "Mena" scandel). Ives implicates
Judicial District Prosecutor Dan Harmon and crony Sharline Wilson as being
principals in the murder of Kevin Ives and Don Henry.
A theory which at points is corroborated by information given by witnesses of

possible police brutality against Kevin and Don the night they were murdered is as
follows:
Harmon and Wilson were at the tracks awaiting drugs to be dropped from an airplane
per pre-arrangement. Harmon got out of his vehicle and walked the tracks with
others (according to Ives' possibly state and local police) while Wilson remained
in the vehicle. Don Henry and Kevin Ives innocently walked out of the woods and
happened upon Dan Harmon who realizing there were now witnesses to the drug drop
approached the boys in some sort of threatening manner. Don Henry filed one shot
from his rifle and everyone scattered.
Don and Kevin took off northbound where a short while later they met up with
another crony Keith Coney who was on a motorcycle. Coney drove the two boys to
Ranchette Grocery on Highway 111.
Don Henry then apparently attempted to make a phone call although it is unknown if
his call ever went through to its destination. Two police officers showed up and
they were later identified to Ives by witnesses as Kirk Lane and Jay Campbell. (who
common logic would state had to also have been at the scene of the drug drop
earlier that night given their subsequent actions)
Witnesses observed Campbell and Lane accost the two boys and a brief scuffle
ensued. When Kevin Ives reached for his rifle, one of the police officers grabbed
it and smashed Kevin's skull in with the butt of the rifle likely killing him
instantly or mortally wounding him.
The two police officers then threw both boys in the back of the unmarked police car
and took off towards a dirt road which dead ended in the woods after around a
quarter of a mile.
Keith Coney, the boy who had driven both Ives and Henry to the grocery took off on
his motorcycle as soon as the violence began. Coney then went to a local bar known
as the "Wagon Wheel" and informed two men of the situation (one of which was Keith
McKaskle) - McKaskle also took off in the direction of the tracks to see what was
going on.
According to a local man named Ronnie Godwin, he also witnessed the beating of two
boys at the grocery the night Ives and Henry were found on the tracks. It was he
who reported that he saw the two police officers whom he identified as Campbell and
Lane, drive away with the boys down a dirt road. It is suspected that it is at this
juncture that Don Henry likely recieved the stab wounds that caused his death and
perhaps Kevin Ives was killed as well at this juncture if he was not already dead
from the earlier altercation at the grocery store.
Ronnie Godwin, knowing that the road dead ended in the woods knew the car would
have to come back in his direction so he parked hidden behind two trailers and
watched as the car emerged from the woods fifteen minutes later and drove towards
the direction of the railroad tracks where the boys were later run over.
Another witness named Mike Crook, corroborates most of Godwin's statements as a

similar statement was told to him by a drifter on the night of the "The Train
Deaths".
Keith McKaskle also may have been a witness to the actual act of laying Ives and
Henry on the tracks. McKaskle took off for the woods after being alerted by Coney
of the situation and apparently witnessed Ives and Henry being laid out on the
tracks and covered with a tarp. There are also several other witnesses alleged in
Mara Leveritt's book "The Boys On The Tracks" who witnessed portions of what
occured on the night of 8-23-87 relating to Henry and Ives.
Several ironies exist with the first being Coney and McKaskle were both found dead
in 1988 under mysterious circumstances and the manner of their deaths ruled as
accidents while there was much evidence to the contrary. Those who support Linda
Ives' conspiracy theory believed both men were murdered in order to ensure their
silence.
Another irony is that Dan Harmon who according to Ives may be at the very crux of
the entire events surrounding "The Train Deaths" was later charged along with
Richard Garrett to head up a Grand Jury investigation on the deaths of Ives and
Henry. In fact Garrett was interviewed extensively on the UM segment where he
promised viewers that he would find a resolution to this case.
However in the early 90s both Garrett and Harmon were dirtied by accusations of
drug scandals and cover ups in Arkansas. Although both men were eventually cleared,
Linda Ives later learned in the late 90s, that at least Harmon may have been
involved in the death of her son and his friend
Finally it is my opinon that what is preventing true justice for Ives and Henry is
the "buddy system". If people with information pertaining say to the two cops who
allegedly assaulted Ives and Henry the night they were found dead were to come
forward and an indictment against these two individuals made, they would likely
"roll over" on someone "higher up the chain" from them.
In turn those people would "roll over" on someone even higher up the chain possibly
involved in the Mena drug scandal. And on and on it would go which is likely what
the people at the very top of this thing want to avoid:
The snowball effect.
