I mean, I think I think the reason they're coming up with this is like the combo of like the dark or uniform like clothes.

But I mean, like, absolutely.

He could have just been a customer or maybe he wasn't part of the club scene at all.

I don't know.

Except as far as investigators are concerned, the possible connections only get stronger when they factor in that Cheryl had worked at another club for a short period of time.

Like she and a close friend had applied to be bartenders or like cocktail waitresses or whatever, like

I think it was like kind of like a mutual dare.

That's what I thought, too.

Like the suspect pool just got like so small.

And so the media goes wild with this when they find out.

However, like all these years on, there hasn't been anyone in particular that has popped out from that scene.

And actually, Cheryl's family swears that too much has been made of this whole thing.

Jane told us that Cheryl worked like a few shifts the summer before she was killed at a club.

So like this is like a year plus prior.

And she decided really fast it just wasn't for her.

Possibly, except there's something that confuses me about that.

So the dancer, the thing I haven't told you, she got a good look at the guy, like, albeit he had, like, a smushed face because of what he was wearing.

She definitely heard his voice, but she didn't recognize him either, like, not as an employee at the club, not as, like, a regular customer.

In fact, she tells HPD that she had always assumed her attacker was someone from a moving company that she had beef with.

So who knows?
