I’ve been having such a hard time locating information on Ringo Kelley, Ned Brinkman, and Billy Nash. Nearly every article of the unsolved murder leads straight to the ghost stories of the three explosive experts. I was able to locate one article that did start with the mention of a police case and the name of the officer in charge, but I was unable to find anything else.
I’ve been wondering about this story a lot lately. The first mention that I was able to find of it is around 1970… As a ghost story.
Looking back on what we know about the story of these men, after they died many workers reported hearing moaning and yelling that they believed were the spirits of these men. Many even believed that the vengeful spirits of Brinkman and Nash were the ones who killed Kelley.
Their story has always been a ghost story.
I wonder if we’ll be able to find more information on them.
I wonder how much of their story is true, and how much was changed as their story has been passed around.
