The story of how residents of a small Missouri town banded together in 1981 to kill a 'gun-toting' bully and got away with it has been revealed in a new docu-series.

It has been 38 years since Ken Rex McElroy was shot to death by an angry crowd in the dusty farming community of Skidmore, Missouri, and for 38 years, the case has remained unsolved.

McElroy was widely regarded as a gun-toting bully who menaced the community, docuseries 'No One Saw a Thing', on Sundance TV, reveals.

For years residents watched him wiggle out of one jam with the law after another.

He had a string of felonies to his name, and had previously been arrested for arson, assault and statutory rape.
