New information surrounding the murders of four Okmulgee men whose remains were found in an Oklahoma river last year.

Preliminary autopsy reports said the friends were shot, then dismembered before search teams found their remains.

Investigators say while Joe Kennedy claims he shot and killed the men in self-defense on his property, there isn't enough evidence to support his claim.

Kennedy was arrested in Florida days after the bodies were found.

He's being held without bond.
