#GreedIsGood: The Crimes of Alan Hruby
#GreedIsGood: The Crimes of Alan HrubyUpdate: 2025-06-27
Description
I saw a meme one time that said, “It’s funny how sometimes the people you’d take a bullet for are the ones behind the trigger.” Most of the time that’s just a metaphor, a way to describe the way it feels when a loved one betrays you. But not always. Sometimes betrayals come written in blood—and more often than not, from somebody you loved and trusted. You couldn’t find a clearer example of that than this week’s case, a story where two of the most powerful forces in the world—love and greed—clash, and three innocent people end up paying the price.

I live in Duncan and my wife and I knew the Hrubys. I was in law enforcement for a state law enforcement agency. I once told my wife that Alan would either wind up dead or in prison. On the morning of the murders, an associate told me about a triple homicide in a certain neighborhood in Duncan. I immediately called John Byers and asked if it was the Hrubys. He said it was. I then said, "You know Alan did it. Have you talked to him yet?" John said, "He's sitting in my office now."
This is my hometown, Never heard a case from here, Awesome!
