Hell and Gone Murder Line: Taylor Barksdale Part 3

Hell and Gone

We’ve been trying to figure out what happened to Taylor Barksdale in the last few weeks of her life that led her to Kingston, Arkansas

At 12:34 on August 5, a 911 caller reported that it a woman was screaming on a rural property in Kingston and that she sounded like she was being raped or tortured.

Just over a month later, on September 9, Taylor’s remains were found in a field near where the 911 call was made.

We have made some headway in finding out what was going on in Taylor Barksdale’s life during the last few weeks of her life.

We know that she had been staying on and off with her ex-boyfriend, Kenny.

Apparently, Taylor and Kenny got into an argument. After that, Kenny's neighbors say that they didn't see her come back to Kenny's residence. After July 20th, Taylor was staying on and off with different friends, and two of those friends who she was hanging out with were men. Men who were also, and two of those friends who she was hanging out with were mutual friends of hers and Kenny's.

One of the men lived in a camper on a piece of land near where the 911 call originated from. So who are these men? How do they know Taylor, and what happened to Taylor on that last day of her life that ended with her remains being found in a field?
