So Dr. Magduff completely discredited the only forensic evidence tying Tallman to the crime scene. Later, it came out that the FBI labs had tested the two hairs that were found on Heidi's body.

Many believed that Tallman was innocent and that Sargent was guilty. A petition circulated to have Sargent kicked out of town. Sargent's mother posted a for-sale sign on her small home in Windsor. A local hairdresser at the Windsor barbershop said, Delbert never gave us any problem. He's always nice to us girls. But I do think he witnessed it. I really do.

He had failed to register as a sex offender in the state of Florida, and the address he gave matched the address for Albert Sargent, who had also moved to Florida.
