When asked about it in 1991, Governor [[Bill Clinton]] said he had authorized financial help for a grand jury investigation. He said his office dropped off the entire investigative file to a congressional committee.

''The Clinton Chronicles'',<ref>https://youtu.be/vKdPaQnZ1DA </ref> documented the Mena airport as the command post of the biggest drug-smuggling operation in the [[United States]] importing $100 million per month in cocaine into Mena. It alleged that much of that money had been laundered through the Arkansas Deve!opment Finance Authority (ADFA), a bonding agency that Bill Clinton created to help small businesses get started. The video and Mara Leveritt's 1999 book, ''The Boys on the Tracks'' discussed that Bill Clinton's half-brother, Roger Clinton, and his bond dealer friend Dan Lasater had gone to prison for cocaine. Richard Garrett had stated on ''Unsolved Mysteries'', a television program which taped informational segments regarding the boys' deaths beginning in 1988, that Saline County and Central Arkansas were overrun with drug-trafficking at a high level that extended to other states and other counties.

On 23 April 1987, two 16 year old boys, Kevin Ives and Don Henry, stumbled upon and witnessed an aerial drop in the area of Bauxite and Alexander, Arkansas.<ref>http://www.idfiles.com </ref> Initial cause of death was claimed to be the result of passing out on a railroad track in Arkansas after smoking [[marijuana]]. The ruling was made by the State medical examiner Dr. Fahmy Malak.
In April 1988, Kevin's body was exhumed, and another autopsy was performed, this one by Atlanta medical examiner Dr. Joseph Burton who discovered that Kevin died from a crushed skull prior to being placed on the tracks. Don Henry's body was exhumed and discovered to have been stabbed in the back prior to being placed on the tracks. The deaths were indeed homocides.
