Salt Life Co-Founder Pleads Guilty In Teen Death

Think about how many Salt Life stickers you've seen on cars. It's standard equipment on Lincoln Town Cars belonging to snowbirds and convertibles belonging to locals. Now, take a moment to think about how much money has been generated by those stickers and t-shirts. It's millions...lots of millions.
The man who became a millionaire by selling that stuff has been in a pickel lately, to say the least. Investigators say the co-founder of Salt Life, Michael Troy Hutto, has now pleaded guilty to the charge of manslaughter with a firearm after the shooting death of his girlfriend, 18-year-old Lora Grace Duncan. The incident happened back in 2020 at the singer Island Resort. Hutto and Duncan were dating at the time. One day after the bodyb was found, the Salt Life millionaire was found overdosing in his car at a gas station. He reportedly confessed to killing Duncan during questioning, although he claimed the shooting was an accident. His girlfriend was found in the hotel room, dead from a gunshot wound to her stomach. Hutto was arrested and charged with manslaughter in the case.
Hutto posted a $250,000 bond and was released from jail until his court date. Shortly after, his bond was revoked due to to two women accusing the man of stalking. The judge decided to keep the suspect in custody until his court appearance to protect the women. Hutto pleaded not guilty to the manslaughter charge initially, but decided to change that plea to guilty on Thursday. Hutto has now been sentenced to 12 years in prison for the crime. Hutto sold the Salt Life company and logo to another company back in 2013 and no longer has any affiliation with the company.

Eagles: Freaking Legendary Album

The Eagles changed the game on February 17, 1976 with Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975).

Meant as a way to boost record label revenue while the band was making Hotel California, Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) was a monster. The collection has a unique place in music history. In fact, it was the first release to be Platinum certified (1 million copies sold) by the RIAA.

Of course, this set would go on to sell far more than 1 million copies. In honor of its release anniversary, here is Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) by the numbers.

Soak Up The Rays Before The Eternal Dirt Nap

Stop us if you've heard this before. Multiple Florida cities made a list of best places for retirement, one even earned the top spot. Deciding where to retire can be a tough decision (for some), but for Floridians, we know nothing is better than the Sunshine State.

It's pretty obvious why people flee to Florida to retire. We have warm weather year-round, beautiful beaches, plenty of golf courses, and easy access to health care. Coincidentally, those are a lot of the factors Niche based their study on. This study was looking for cities that would score high for: weather, crime rates, residents 65 and older, housing costs, and access to amenities such as restaurants, golf courses, exercise facilities, and doctors. States like California and Arizona are also considered prime retirement destinations. To keep you from reading about the same states, a maximum of 10 places per state were featured.

Some of the most desirable retirement destinations are those located near major cities like San Francisco, New York, and Los Angeles. But because cost of living is so high, it's not ideal for people on fixed incomes. Not only do we have multiple retirement communities in Florida, but so many activities for them to take part in! We get that wasting your retirement years on a rocking chair on your front porch is no longer ideal. Seniors in Florida can choose between a variety of natural attractions.

We won't feature all 100 best retirement cities, just the ones in Florida. If you'd like to see the whole list, click here.
