A QC man died a violent death; his throat was slit according to the Rock Island County Coroner. The body of 51year old Alan Porter was found by the river in Rock Island last month. Today, a police officer shared more details about the death at the coroner's inquest. The officer testified 20 year old Ryan Mosher confessed to stabbing Porter, dragging his body to the shore, covering him with a blanket and throwing his knife in the river. Rock Island County Coroner Brian Gustafson said the autopsy showed Porter died from multiple stab wounds to the neck. Mosher has been charged with the murder. Three others are also facing charges for covering it up.
