What I want to know is what you know about Tabitha Bryant's murder.
And at first, Cassidy just stared back at Sienna and said nothing.
And for a minute, Sienna thought maybe he had sort of miscalculated here.
But then after a long, awkward pause, Cassidy's whole demeanor shifted and she started to talk.
Based on witness testimony, evidence collected at the crime scene, and the killer's eventual confession, here is a reconstruction of what police believe happened to Tabitha Bryant on the night of July 13th, 2003.
Around 11.50 p.m., the killer very carefully crept through the first floor of the Bryant home carrying a rifle, and they went straight to the den where they found Tabitha asleep on the pull-out couch.
For a moment, the killer paused, just staring down at Tabitha, wondering, you know, questioning whether they could really go through with this.
But then, after just a little bit of deliberation in their own minds, they
raised the rifle and they fired.
The bullet entered Tabitha's skull right under her right eye, but it didn't kill her.
And so as the killer is standing there watching, expecting Tabitha to basically be motionless, Tabitha wasn't.
Her body began jerking around and then she suddenly reached up and grabbed at her cheek and she sat up and she looked at the killer and began to scream.
And so the killer immediately fired two more times, but Tabitha
was moving around so much in her own panic that both shots missed.
And then on the fourth shot, when the killer pulled the trigger for the fourth time, the rifle jammed.
And so at this point, the killer completely panicked.
And so the killer turns and they run into the kitchen,
All the while, Tabitha is flailing around in the den.
She's screaming.
Blood's going everywhere.
