Preston had won a lawsuit against the railroad company after his wife and daughters were killed in a train/car accident and his son was seriously injured. His second wife with the help of her mother hired two men to befriend Preston and murder him. The three men went hunting and only two returned. Preston's body was found three months later in a shallow grave. His wife, mother-in-law and the two men are serving life sentences. His son was featured on an episode of "HARD COPY" as the 'Loneliest Boy in America'. Preston's murder and trial made national news. There is currently a book being written about his murder.
