Two suspects. One is my uncle in law, the other is Floyd Jenkins. Floyd just called the house and told us he didn't get us last night and he will get us soon. He told me that he will catch my papaw back on Vonore road and beat his eyes in. It's all over my aunt cleaning her life of drugs up and leaving my uncle in law for a better life and she mentioned to him this weekend that she has a new boyfriend. She stays with us in the basement because she had nowhere else to go where she would be able to stay clean.

That reminds me of this story Pike County massacre latest: Killers in Pike County massacre are likely locals - Story Longform You really need police protection at this point -- sounds like a dangerous situation -- she probably shouldnt have mentioned a boyfriend to him either

I didn't mean to sound like nothing but family that's the greatest blessing in life is having them to fall back on. Monroe county detectives just updated it from arson to attempted murder.

Can you think of anyone that would hate you bad enough to do something like that ?

I mean if they would try it once you may want to be super careful right now.

Sorry about your hard times brother. Keep your loved one's close and lean on your family during the tough times.

When I start complaining about my hard times it brings me back to reality when I see things that other folks like yourself have to deal with.

Disregard my first question, I didn't read your later posts.

I would like to give you advice about the threat you recieved, but I won't.

If this is the Floyd Wesley Jenkins, Vonore Road, Sweetwater, TN, he's already violated an order of protection before and committed assault by domestic violence:

Floyd Wesley Jenkins, 44, Sweetwater/Vonore Road, Powell Avenue, Sweetwater, resisting arrest, six months suspended; three counts violation of order of protection, 11/29 suspended on first count, second and third count dismissed; assault by domestic violence, 11/29 suspended.

Floyd Wesley Jenkins, 43, Powell Avenue, Sweetwater, aggravated criminal trespassing, vandalism, dismissed, victim didn’t want to prosecute.

posted 4 days ago from: General Sessions for Jan. 22, 2016 - The Advocate & Democrat: News

He sounds like a dangerous threat that should be taken seriously due to his long and recent track record.

You should report the death threat to the police as well as the threat on your grandfather's life made this afternoon.

Prayers man! If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here for ya!! I lost my dad at age 19 to cancer. I'm 27 now. It does get easier to cope with in time. It definitely turned my world upside down for a couple of years. There's not a day goes by that I don't think about him and how I wish he was here to see the man I am today and to meet my 3 wonderful children. I cherish the time we had together but the time spent on earth is just temporary. I know I will reunite with him again one day. Things will and do get better. One day at a time my man!

I dunno if anyone posted this, I only read the first page posts..

Have you thought about a "Gofundme" page?

https://www.gofundme.com/tour

I didn't see you mention if your insurance would cover your monetary loss. This may be of help to you.

Last year I lost my nana too lung cancer.. she raised me for 14 years. The night before her passing I told her I loved her and she didn't say it back. Two nights ago I had a dream inehich she appeared. Her soft spoken words told me to keep my family close. Mind you, on her year of passing My fiancé and I had a miscarriage. Life's been rough. Well, last night someone had set my SUV on fire and my barn. I had well over $20,000 worth of stuff inside my barn. I don't care about it though it's the memories that was made in that barn with my papaw that kills me and my nana rushing us to finish up tinkering on cars to come and eat supper. I'm at a loss for words. How could someone be so cruel! The SUV was parked on the car port. If I didn't hear my dog barking outside I'm sure the house would have went up in flames. I have nothing but my family now. That's more than enough. The pain is sending me into a deep depressed mode.

Brother.. anyone who is that cruel just needs to lynched.. no one should be able to live and walk knowing what they did. Crazy.. prayers.

Oh wow man, small world. I too live in Monroe County, and I also know Floyd Jenkins. I never knew of him being that violent, but then again you never really know about anybody! I'd say given his record though, who knows what he might be capable of, if it really is him behind what happened.

The best revenge towards those who hate you enough to do these things is to live on exceedingly well!! Your memories cannot be taken from you so hang on to them and try to fret not so much over the material things now gone, like barn and SUV. Then implement my Dad's head, two arms, and two legs concept. As long as you have a working head, two working arms and two working legs, you are the envy of a whole lot of people in this world so take advantage of them. There are a sizeable amount of people who do not have two working arms tonight and need someone to wipe their donkey for them. Now THAT's a tough one to get enthusiastic about so it can always be significantly worse. Get out there, smile and overcome it so your enemies become miserable. Best to you man.

So sorry this happened! Prayers for you! When I'm going through a storm I focus on putting things into perspective. Just know that this too shall pass!

RT just now read through the rest of the thread. You know what you have to do man. It's lock and load time for anyone to brazenly threaten you or your family's life. Get armed, fire some practice rounds, and protect your family's lives. You're going to have to take a life with a clean conscience if these people come for you and yours. Based on what you've detailed, do not hesitate at the moment of truth. Your and your family's lives are in danger. Best to you and yours.

If you have "nothing but family " you have EVERYTHING. Lot of people with material things and no one to love would trade with you in a nanosecond. Hope the authorities catch the scum that destroyed just to destroy, but keep your eyes on what's really important. :good!:

I couldn't have said it better than what my buddy said here. Prayers up for peace and if you need a lynch squad for the perpetrators, let me know...

I am sorry you are having to go through this. The death of your nana is tough enough but this other stuff is just unbelievable. I lost my father, mother and little brother in a span of 15 months starting in May 2013. It will be really tough for awhile and things will never be the same again but with the help of the clergy, your family and friends you will be able to move forward. You have your memories and no one can take them from you. No. One.

It sounds like you have a real psycho on you hands and the post Remy put up might be the only way for you to go if or when he comes back. If you choose that route just be sure it is done in preservation of you and yours and not with vengeance or retribution in mind.

My thoughts and prayers are with you my friend.

RT, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. The Lord never gives you more than you can handle...so take a moment and recognize how highly He thinks of you.

If you follow the advice of some and arm yourself for protection, get a 12 gauge pump shotgun and some double ought buckshot. Plenty of stopping power yet doesn't take a sniper's aiming skill to hit a target. Best thing about a 12 gauge pump is racking it (cocking/putting a shell in the chamber) will make 99 out of 100 people crap their pants from the sound...they run, and you most likely won't have to pull the trigger.

Beyond immediate personal safety, you need to realize that this will pass. Imagine the stormiest day you've ever seen and remember, that above the clouds, the sun is shining as brightly as ever. I believe that the times we feel most separated from God are when we somehow place the clouds between us and God's love shining like the sun. So when you feel you're in the bottom of the barrel, remember that God is still shining on you...you just have to mentally remove the clouds that appear to be in the way.

A prayer I often fall back on goes like this:

Dear God, please be with me and take (insert whatever your burden is) from me. I've tried but I can't handle it, and I know you can. Amen.

Sounds too simple, but it's lifted my load many times through the years.
