Multiple state agencies want to find the killers who left two people dead at a marijuana farm in rural Oklahoma. On Friday, two men were found shot inside the marijuana farm in Wynnewood. The Garvin County Sheriff’s Office said it is chasing down multiple leads, but a neighbor said they are scared and done with this type of crime in their community. “This is supposed to be the country with rolling hills and nice, beautiful pastures. It’s not looking that way anymore,” Kirk Cox, who lives next to the marijuana grow, said. Just after 4 p.m. Friday, a part-time employee at the grow facility called 911. When deputies arrived, they found the two men inside. “You know, for a long time, we’ve had a lot of problems with marijuana grows in the state of Oklahoma,” Sheriff Jim Mullett said. >> Video Below: Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation reports double homicide in WynnewoodInvestigators don’t yet know what led to the crime or a motive. “It doesn’t appear to be a robbery, and what I mean by that is the lack of evidence, but we’re not canceling that out,” Mullett said. “We’ve asked the attorney general’s office, because we are working with them continuously with some robberies that have taken place with some gang members out of OKC and Texas that have ties with some grows in Garvin County.” But Cox said he no longer feels safe in his community. “It makes me nervous and afraid, because I’m not always home, and my mom is 87 years old.
