Homicide Suspect Confronted

EMMETT TOWNSHIP, Mich.—

A fight between two neighbors in the Battle Creek area ended with a body in the backyard.

A day later, Emmett Township police are calling it a homicide and charges could soon be on the way.

Police say the fight happened between Shane Medley and a neighbor in the 500th block of Westbrook Avenue. It was early Saturday morning, around 2:45 a.m.

"They were always talking, giving each other rides, borrow money from each other. They were just two really good friends, as far as everything," Eric Sobeck says about the two neighbors.

He says 27 year old Medley was found dead Saturday in his backyard. "He was always nice whenever he came over and talked. I borrowed movies," Sobeck recalls.

Sobeck shares a duplex trailer with Medley's girlfriend.  He says the guy Medley got into an altercation with is just as approachable.

"He's always been a good guy. He's always trying to set up parties, trying to get the neighborhood and make it, to get everybody to get along, that way we don't have issues," he describes.

Emmett Township Public Safety took the suspect in for questioning but released him. FOX 17 tried to get his side of the story.

"Get off my property now," the suspect said.

Darren Cunningham: "You have zero comment?"

The suspect is free now but could end up facing homicide charges for a fight between friends gone too far.

Meanwhile, Medley's girlfriend and his one year old son are without a partner and a father.

"It never sinks in hundred percent. It really doesn't. It's kind of like you sit back and realize you're never going to see him again, walking and talking, is like 'Ok,'" Sobeck says.

Police tell FOX 17 the results of an autopsy should be revealed tomorrow along with possible charges for the other guy involved in the fight.

Manslaughter charges possible in boy's death

Published: Thursday, August 23, 2012, 5:55 p.m. MONROE -- Detectives believe a 7-year-old Monroe boy's parents should face second-degree manslaughter charges in connection with his January overdose death. Monroe police this week wrapped up their probe into the boy's Jan. 30 death and forwarded the case to prosecutors to decide if his parents should face criminal charges. Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Lisa Paul likely will begin reviewing the case in the coming days. She doesn't expect to make a charging decision in the near future, however. "It's quite an extensive investigation, and I want to review it thoroughly before I make any decision," she said. The boy, identified as "A.J." in court papers, ingested a lethal amount of salicylates, a chemical common in aspirin and other over-the-counter drugs. The medical examiner declined to conduct an autopsy on the boy, making it difficult to determine how the drug ended up in the boy's system. A
