Usage examples of "byers".

John Mark Byers, an unemployed jeweler, was the first parent to report a child missing.

It was about a half mile from the homes of Christopher Byers and Michael Moore and only a few blocks farther from that of Stevie Branch.

The officer who’d taken the missing-person reports on Christopher Byers and Michael Moore later reported that she’d ventured into the woods near the Mayfair Apartments to help look for the boys, but the mosquitoes had driven her out.

Then he walked over to John Mark Byers, whose stepson Chris had been mutilated.

When a reporter approached, Byers shook his head in a gesture of bewilderment.

The site was a half mile due north of the corner where Christopher Byers and Michael Moore lived.

The day after the three eight-year-olds’ bodies were found, Byers simultaneously praised the West Memphis police for their efforts in the search for the boys and complained about what he regarded as the sheriff’s delayed response.

Besides, the sheriff added, there was no reason, other than protocol, why he would have declined Byers’s request, since he knew Byers and considered him a friend.

That may have been why, after the bodies were found, Gitchell’s clasp of Byers at the edge of the woods had looked surprisingly personal.

When the photo of that encounter appeared on the front page of the local paper, a spotlight fell on Byers that would shine for many months.

Byers worked at flea markets in the Memphis–West Memphis area, performing on-the-spot jewelry repair until he and Melissa opened their own store, Byers Jewelry, in West Memphis in 1989.

The store lasted less than a year, and when it closed, Byers filed for bankruptcy.

That venture ended quickly too, and toward the end of 1990, the disgruntled partner bought Byers out.

But even after his marriage to Melissa, Byers retained a stormy relationship with his first wife, who lived in Marion.

Years later, Fogleman too would play a key role in events following the murder of Christopher Byers and his two young friends.
