Detective Smith

That Tex doesn't want Diane in their condo, living or dead. Jake Grover's other theory? Tex wants to get all of her possessions out of the condo, and he certainly doesn't want Diane's cremains in the condo. He's gotten rid of her. He wants to stay rid of her.

At this point, Jay is having conversations with the Atlanta police, homicide detectives who truly wanted to believe it was a tragic accident. And then, curiously, Tex, without anyone suggesting he do so, schedules a polygraph test just two weeks after the shooting. Tex did this of his own accord. Law enforcement didn't ask him to do it. And remember, Tex is not under arrest.

Jay went back into detective mode and poured himself into the case. He was frustrated that the vehicle was back in Tex's possession, and we had a conversation about that.

So Jay and I make an agreement. I'm going to call JD Danny Stevens and I'm going to say to JD, somebody needs to take a look at the angle of that bullet in the seat. And Jay calls someone in the DA's office and something changes. Something happens to where now all of a sudden, there's curiosity about recovering the vehicle.

Ten days after he is charged, on New Year's Eve 2016, police discovered that Tex owes Diane $350,000 and that money is due in just a few days, and she had already extended the note once before. But Tex only has approximately $20,000 to his name deposited in four different bank accounts. Was Tex about to be exposed as broke? And in Diane's eyes, a failure? Could this ruin their marriage?
