The sheriff’s office and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement subsequently launched an investigation into the incident, scouring the Crime scene to identify clues that could point in the direction of the perpetrators.

In a Tuesday news conference, Sheriff Scotty Rhoden said that Sigers had no criminal history, while Thomas had some “minor misdemeanor offenses — nothing since 2019.”

“We can say that these two victims were brutally murdered and may have been targeted,” Rhoden said. “Let’s make no mistake about it, this was an execution-style Murder.”

The sheriff said that the men were shot over the past weekend and that there remains no imminent threat to the local community in light of the double homicide.

“We don’t have any information on suspects at this time.”

“Detectives are still in the early stages of the investigation and are continuing to follow up on leads,” Rhoden said.

At the news conference, Rhoden specifically requested residents of Steel Bridge Road to report to police if they’ve seen any “activity here in the weekend that appeared to be strange or unusual to you.”

“There’s nothing too small,” Rhoden added.

“It has been several years since we have had one,” the sheriff said when asked by reporters about when the area saw its last homicide.

An obituary for Sigers described him as a “lifelong” resident of the county who had graduated from Baker County High School and had served in the United States Army.

Thomas’ obituary described him as a father of four and owner of Bo Thomas Construction LLC. Thomas also graduated from the same high school as Sigers, the Miami Herald reported.

Both men loved hunting, according to their obituaries.
