Greg Fleniken, a 55-year-old landman from Louisiana, was found dead in his locked hotel room in Beaumont, Texas, after failing to show up for work. The scene appeared ordinary: no signs of forced entry, no visible injuries, and no evidence of a struggle. With Greg’s unhealthy lifestyle and history of smoking, authorities initially suspected a heart attack or stroke.
That theory fell apart during the autopsy. Greg had catastrophic internal injuries that looked more consistent with blunt-force trauma than a natural death. Investigators struggled to explain how someone could suffer such damage without external wounds. The case stalled as detectives chased unlikely theories, including a possible assault by a hotel maintenance worker and an unexplained power outage that affected the neighboring room.
Nearly a year later, a private investigator noticed a small dent in the wall near the adjoining room and toothpaste filling a hole on the other side. The truth finally emerged: two electricians in the next room had been drinking when one accidentally fired a gun through the wall. The bullet struck Greg while he was relaxing in bed, killing him instantly. Instead of calling for help, the men covered up the damage. Lance Mueller later pleaded no contest to manslaughter and was sentenced to ten years in prison.
