I heard through a grapevine that the cops know who and where the "owner"  guy is.  I hope in the least,  that the owner is brought in on any conspiracy charge that might apply.  Plus - he and the A** that did the hands on,  MUST pay all medical costs incurred to the hospital,  and on going medical costs for earl for the rest of earl's life...the "owner", of course, no longer having any contact what so ever.
