Unnamed Friend

So I had to go down there and sit there for this woman to fingerprint me. And it was on the front page of the newspaper the next day.

In the end, the lawsuit was settled out of court. Each side agreed not to disparage the other, and Heather conceded she had no first-hand knowledge that the Sells family was involved in Karen Swift's murder. The cyber-stalking charge against Daryl Sells was dismissed, which in Heather's book was just another example of the Sells family getting favorable treatment in Dyersburg.

Sheriff Box is not contemplating a name change. Heather Cohen has said all kinds of things about the department, essentially saying that Daryl Sells controls you.

Heather Cohen does have her supporters in Dyersburg, people who think she has uncovered the truth. It's fair to say Sheriff Box and the Sells family are not among them. Why should we believe you and not them?

With no one arrested for Karen Swift's murder, the drama between private investigator Heather Cohen and the Sells family took center stage. Heather's theories about Karen's killer went viral, in Dyersburg at least.

And while Heather said she wasn't hired by Ashley's dad, some of her information did come from David's family. I seen this old man and He had a metal detector. Heather reported talking to three people who said they'd seen Daryl Sells at the crime scene. One of them was Ashley's own brother.
