Why shoot Jackson?
Another big question that was never completely answered was why did the neighbor shoot Jackson? Although he was never pinned for being the person who shot Jackson, it was pretty obvious that he could have only come from his yard. So why in the world would he just decide one day to do this?
Well, the police only had a few reasons that they could think of. Either the neighbor wasn’t in the right state of mind and was under the impression of some substance and just shot at the poor dog for fun. Or, he was trying to get the dog to get away from the backyard fence because maybe he smelled some illegal substances.
