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.

Charges dismissed in grisly Ypsilanti Township triple homicide

Image
For nearly six years, they were locked up facing a possible death sentence for a grisly 2001 triple homicide in Ypsilanti Township. On Friday, a federal judge dismissed the charges against Deondre Byrd and three other men after a federal prosecutor said new evidence came to light last Friday that prevented the government from taking the case to trial. It was the second time in three years that Byrd escaped murder charges. He has been imprisoned in recent years for both the triple homicide and the slaying of a 16-year-old girl in Ann Arbor, but he has been convicted on only a federal gun charge. "Obviously, I'm pretty upset that almost 11 years later, we still don't have any answers," said Christy Brown, 30, a close family friend of the victims of the triple homicide. She said she got a call from federal prosecutors Thursday saying the case was being dropped, but they wouldn't elaborate. "I was very surprised. I honestly thought they were making some...
