Blake Thompson, 14, Greg Fortenberry, 26, and LeJerrious Perkins, 17, are accused of stabbing Blake's father, Kenneth Thompson, in the neck, killing him. After the slaying, the three suspects called police officer Jasper Pittman, who was in an unlawful sexual relationship with Blake Thompson, and asked him to help burn the truck and bury the body. Thompson's body was found Monday in a shallow grave behind Pittman's house on Josephine Drive in the Pleasant Grove community. Pittman was charged with arson, conspiracy to commit arson, sexual battery and accessory after the fact to murder. Pittman was fired after his arrest and had previously been fired by the McComb PD for a reckless pursuit.
