Good friends don’t let you bleed out in the back of a car

Burglar shot with his own gun; body found in car four days later.

“Stokes bled to death in the car while Mackey drove to Lake Worth, police said. There, Mackey and another man put the body inside another car, where it sat for three days, according to the report.

“The car then was moved to Australian Avenue, about 2 miles east of Interstate 95 and just north of 45th Street in Lake Park, the report said. A passerby discovered Stokes’ body inside and thought he was sleeping.

“Investigators say they found a cellphone in the car that led them to Mackey. It helped show that Mackey was an associate of Stokes’, and investigators used cellphone records to track Mackey and Stokes from Lake Worth to Broward County and back around the time of the shooting, a report showed.

“Mackey was arrested Saturday and is being held without bond at the Palm Beach County Jail, charged with second-degree murder in Stokes’ death and armed home invasion.

“Under Florida law, an accomplice can be held responsible for a death if it occurs while committing a crime.”
