And he said, like, well, how would any man not feel partially responsible for not being there when something happens to your fiancée, your woman?

Now, I can't find where police ever came out and confirm or deny any of this.

Is it like they said?

Is it like Bobby said?

Is it somewhere in the middle?

Which kind of just left everyone with a lot of questions about Bobby, but no physical proof tying him to a crime.

Well, and he had an alibi, right?

Kind of.

I mean, that's what I remember knowing back then.

Like after church, he said that he met up with a cousin and his cousin drove them to the Richmond Square Mall to get fitted for wedding tuxes.

They're together for like an hour and a half or so.

And then Bobby said that he made a couple of pit stops at people's houses before going home between like 530 and 545, where he expected to meet Nikki.

They were going to finish up those wedding invites, but she just never showed.

So, yes, he has an alibi.

You know, there's a little bit of wiggle room in there.

And with that, with the quote unquote failed Polly, after he gets talked to by police, he kind of just remains in this gray space that investigators like to call person of interest.

Now, while searches continued for Nikki, detectives went back to the laundromat a week later to interview regulars.

No one saw anything that was suspicious, not even in hindsight.

And more importantly, no one seemed to know anything about the men who may have been messing with Nikki.

By this point, Indiana State Police stepped in to help a little by putting up a helicopter to sweep across Richmond, Indiana and the surrounding area.
