8 People Slain In Ga. Were 'Good Country Folks' - Pennsylvania ...
BRUNSWICK, Ga. -- Rusty Toler Sr. took in people who were down on their luck, packing his mobile home with relatives and others who had lost their jobs or fallen on hard times.
It's what good country folk do, says the manager of the park where Toler, his four children, two siblings and his daughter's boyfriend were found slain. Ten people lived in the single-wide, 980-square-foot trailer in coastal Georgia that cost Toler $405 a month. Police have no suspects and have not said how the family died.

Montgomery said the elder Toler had taken in his brother, a nephew, his daughter and...
