Theyre going to sleep every night not really sure who killed their neighbor. One neighbor says the two small kids at home, she is feeling panicked and paranoid. Tips started coming in right away, diane parrish, who lived a few houses from nathan and denise, remember seeing a strange man on her street right around the time of the murder. Described the man you saw walking on this road. He had a black Hoodie Sweatshirt on with the hood pulled up and his hands were in the pocket, and i will never forget the look on that mans face. What was so odd about the look on his face . He was very agitated. I knew immediately something was wrong with him. Neighbors were anxious and detectives were puzzled.
