pain comes rushing back. that someone would shoot my child. like why? this was a small town who done it? we were afraid. what had happened that night? was the answer somewhere in her circle of friends? we are trying to find out why. i would never hurt halee. he is there. he s got a gun. how could it have not been him? then, a secret spills out in court. that s a bombshell. definitely was. i feel like i got my heart ripped out. for that mother to get on that stand was absolute silence. i m miles from my family in new york, but i m driving, oddly enough, through a place that feels like home. quaint downtown. kind of place you feel safe. this is newberg in southwest indiana. you can see the early days of the midwest in these historic buildings. open farmland everywhere, hometown, usa. a place for putting down roots. turn left on county road 475 west. then your destination will be on the left. then, there it is. what i have been looking for. a gravel

Little. heather collins doesn t want to think anymore about isaiah hagan. she comes to this park to think about haleigh, the good times they had here as a young family and the woman haylee could have been. i don t think any of us have come to terms with what s happened yet and that she s really gone. you think she s just going to come walking back in the door to pick up her laundry, you know. emilee finds herself picking up the phone to call her big sister, only to have the sad reality come crashing down, only to be left with one unanswerable question, why did isaiah do it. i wonder how he could do something like that and what made him do that. why was he so desperate to hurt someone so kind? there s no one who couldn t say she was the most giving person, so why wouldn t you just ask because if you would have just
