But they said no, they don't have any unknown DNA samples from a possible suspect.

I mean, Dayton's big, but it's not that big, right?

Yeah.

So we asked them about a possible connection between Nikki's case and Kelly's.

And we were told that they're, quote, not aware of any connection between these two, end quote.

Have they considered a connection?

Honestly, I don't know.

I don't know if they're like dodging the question because like I too was like, that's like, that didn't totally answer it.

Yeah.

Or I don't know if they actually haven't considered a connection at all.

Convince me 100%?

No.

I mean, like to me, like until we find Nikki, nothing is 100%.

Right.

I will say that the case report filled in a lot of the blanks, making it clear why they were so confident that it was him.

And it made it clear to me that we never got the whole story on Tommy.

Because if Tommy Swint had anything to do with whatever happened to Nikki McCown, it is clear that police theorized he worked with and had help from someone that you have probably never heard of until right now.

It's impossible to talk about the new stuff I learned about Tommy Swint without discussing this other person because it's all so intertwined.

And while this is all new information now, it's been there all along.

Actually, after I released our first episode on Nikki and then met up with her daughter Peyton, she told me about this other person.
