So Barry and I went and met with him again. And in exchange for him telling us everything he knew, he was offered a deal to plead to accessory after the fact to murder and was given a five-year prison sentence.
The reason I became a prosecutor is to fight for people like this. I see a woman whose body has been desecrated, violated, mutilated, and nobody spoke up for her and fought for her. And there's a quote that I love, and it goes, the dead cannot cry out for justice. It is the duty of the living to do so for them. And that's my job.
My theory was that Salonia and Reginald were in a marriage that was about to come to an end. There was a history of abuse and that Salonia was tired of it and she was ready to leave Reginald. I think he was angry and he saw an opportunity for some money. I think that's why he killed this woman.
Later, police were able to find a bottle of lotion in the Reed household that matched that type of lotion that was on her body.
My understanding after the fact is that Jimmy Ray Barnes talked to Reggie and said, where's the money? You told me $50,000. He says he never got a penny of it.
As a prosecutor, when the jury deliberates, it's painstaking. You're just waiting and waiting and waiting.
I wanted to tell him, I'm sorry for the loss of your mother. I'm sorry for your father going to prison. I can't even imagine the grieving process that he's got to have gone through.
We became convinced that he'd done it. It seemed like that every expert we talked to told us that it could not have happened the way Matt Baker said it happened.
areas where they found blood. But what about the red sweatshirt? In the past, I have placed my camera tripod in a blood stain. In this particular case, I don't believe that I did. I would have tried everything possible to not do so.
Mike Guarino, Galveston County District Attorney. He had seen certain things at the radio station in the office of Tim Kingsbury. They looked funny. A co-worker had come across forgeries.
The district attorney is not a publicist or the town crier, so to speak. He's the prosecutor, and he's got to prosecute the case. Which Guarino says he did right by the book. We really didn't handle it any differently than we would have handled. a forgery case of this nature.
Did you know he was married with children? Yes, we did know because he told us he had walked away from a family. We had no current information on them or their whereabouts.
No, at the time we did not. We did not think about it. We had notified all the agencies that we thought were proper, including the Ohio side of the equation. We thought they would seek them out, but we really didn't think about it. Hindsight's 20-20. I'd probably do it today.
Yes. It's a homicide investigation right now. The prime suspect, Darren Mack.
I absolutely was afraid.
You leave no rock unturned.
You leave no building unchecked. Obviously we're going to throw every resource that we have at our disposal to apprehending him.
This appeared to be an assailant that knew her very well.
We had received word that there was a 911 call in the morning. Tell me about that 911 call.
It's essentially that you're listening to the end of her life on the 911 call.
