It's back Friday in 2003.
One day after Thanksgiving.
The fridge is full of leftovers.
The house still smells like turkey.
People are out shopping for the best deals of the year.
And in a little suburb in New Jersey,
rain is hammering the windows.
Two teenage best friends are having a sleepover,
and they make plans for a quick trip to the nail salon
to get their nails done.
And then it was back home.
Simple.
They didn't even need their prepaid cell phone,
so it stays on their dresser. They grab their jackets, an umbrella, and they say, we'll be right back.
But later, when the streetlights blink on in a storm, an hours pass, a mother starts to worry.
She tells herself she's being dramatic, but as the rain falls, she tried to hold back tears.
She knows that something is wrong, and she's right. Her 16-year-old daughter is missing and in danger.
Hi everyone, welcome back to my channel.
And if you've never been here before, I am Kimberlea.
It's nice to finally meet you.
So let's go back and talk about that feeling.
The one that you might try to shake off
because you're making it sound ridiculous in your head,
that something's wrong, and maybe it's not.

Deepop where taste recognizes taste.
Maybe you're being dramatic
and you're being overprotective
if you're a parent, let's say.
And you're making what they say
a mountain out of a molehill, right?
Well, that is what Wilma Williams was feeling.
She's at the front window of her house.
She's watching the street like it might answer her if she stares long enough.
Where's her daughter?
She checks her daughter Sharita's room, and there's nothing there that's out of the ordinary.
Her sheets are still made on the bed, no shoes kicked off under her desk, no damp umbrella
by the door, meaning she didn't come home.
The last she knew, Sherita said she was going to get her nails done, and she remembers the moment
she was leaving.
She said, be careful.
And Sherita, almost in a sassy way, Shreta, almost in a sassy way,
shrugged it off. She's like, mom, come on, I'm 16. No one's going to bother me. It was as if to say,
I'm not a kid. I'm not going to get kidnapped. You know, I understand has the word kid in it,
but she's like, I'm fine, and she walked out the door. Wilma knew the plan, or she thought she did.
She thought that Shreda was going to spend Friday night over one of her best friend's house,
Veronica Briggs. So that's where Wilma starts. Because by the time Saturday morning rolled around,
Sherita wasn't answering her prepaid cell phone,
and she wasn't back home.
So she dials Veronica's number,
and she's shocked when she finds out
that Sherita had never gone back to Veronica's house that night.
So her heart is pounding. She's like, what do you mean?
She just assumed when Sherita didn't come home
after the nail appointment at the beauty salon,
that she went over and spent the night of Veronica's,
because that is what she had done so many times before in the past.
And Wilma had been silencing that saying in her head
where she was like, please say she stayed over,
please say she stayed over.
But knowing that she hadn't was horrifying.
She didn't know where she was.
Her stomach drops.
It's the kind of feeling that a mom gets
when they say they just know.
Wilma calls her husband Harry.
She tells him she's not home and she's not with pinky.
That was Veronica's nickname and Shreda had one too.
It was Rita or Sunshine to her family.
Harry didn't hesitate.
He was already grabbing his keys and coming home.
Now, Wilma was trying to stay reasonable.
She called the nail salon, but it was closed.
So she calls another Winnisarita's friends, and then another.
And no one had seen her.
That's when she called the police, and she explained it.
She's 16. She's never done this before.
She doesn't have her phone on.
The storm last night, everything, she should be home.
The officer on the line gives her the worst kind of script.
Maybe she ran away.
We've heard it before.
They can't take a report because it's too soon to do anything.
Wilma hangs up and she stares with the phone.
What is she supposed to do?
You feel powerless.
She and her husband decide they better go look for their daughter.
So there's no use sitting around their house when their sunshine could be out there somewhere.
And if you're wondering where this takes place, it's in Pensacan, New Jersey, a row of narrow lawns, chain-link fences, and a line of cars parked along the curb on a street that points towards some.
Philly skyline. Blocks are tight and friendly, Cape Cod-style homes or brick ranchers with aluminum
awnings and flower beds edged in red brick. Some streets sit low by the river, others towards
Merchantville's tree-lined edges with tall old homes and deep porches. With Route 31 running right
through it. Think diners, carpet stores, neon signs, a car lot with flags flapping in the wind.
Down by the river road are warehouses and railroad tracks. Up by the parks, there's
kids on chalk, hopscaches, and sidewalks.
After school, it's bikes to the park,
rollerblades on smooth sidewalks or Nintendo.
And it gets all the seasons.
Fall when leaves pile up in gutters, winter,
when they get the norristers, the rainy slushy streets,
the salt-crested cars, and you see your breath
under the amber glow of the street lights.
When this case took place, it was right between fall and winter.
Sherita grew up in a yellow two-story townhouse
on the corner of Gross and Camden Avenue
in the late 80s, early 90s, a house that never stayed quiet for long.
Sherina Marguerite Williams was one of three children.
She was born on October 1st of 1987 between her older sister Sabrina,
who was three years older, and her younger brother, John Henry,
who came four years after Sharita. And she was an adorable little baby, the cutest.
And as you can imagine with three kids, the Williams household had a bunch of energy.
The house was loud in the way the family was the family.
hope for. Sherida's father Harry spent his days and sometimes his nights at Riverfront State
Prison in Camden as a corrections officer. Camden was close enough to see from Pensaccon,
but it was not the best area. It had been buckling for years with poverty and high crime.
Harry's work there pressed a lesson into his parenting. Discipline, personal responsibility,
respect for yourself, and others. It wasn't just talk. You could feel those values at the dinner
table. He would teach his children when to apologize, and it had to be real. When you spoke up,
you looked someone in the eye. And Harry and Wilma were good parents. They were loving, kind,
and they raised well-mannered, respectful children. Wilma set the rhythm of the entire household,
the schedules, the check-ins, the kindness that makes you feel like she cared instead of she was
trying to control you. Together, they gave their kids what they wanted the most. A safe town,
close schools, familiar neighbors, and a childhood that happened outside as much as possible.
Pensacan had a small town feel. You truly knew your neighbors, and they were glad they lived in that
neighborhood because there were a lot of other families there with a lot of kids. You could play
on the street on the block together, and it was almost as though your neighbors would watch out
for your kids and vice versa. It was very family friendly. No one worried if their kids were outside
playing in the street. Street lights were a clock.
when you ended your game of tag. The bikes would be moved in cluster, sidewalks were chalk
stained, screen doors would open, and parents leaned out of them to call you home. I remember those days.
The front door could be left unlocked during the day. This is where Sharita grew up. In that world,
Sherita stood out early. She was the kid who could be outspoken when it counted and soft when it
mattered. The go-to sibling for backup in an argument and the one who would sit beside you on a
bad day until you felt better. They called her sunshine for a reason. It wasn't because she was
always happy, but because she carried a warmth about her that made other people feel good. She had
that quiet confidence. She wasn't loud or showy. It's the kind that made people listen when she
had something to say. Shreda, a really cute little girl, grew into a stunning young woman,
flawless skin, beautiful complexion, big bright smile. And there was a reason for that. As she got in a
high school, she liked little rituals. That's how I'll say it. It was about respecting herself,
caring about her appearance. She wanted to look her best. Eyebrows perfectly waxed, outfits chosen
with intention, even if she was just heading to school or staying in. She loved getting her hair
done and her nails all the time. And her favorite salon was only three minutes away, the Hollywood
beauty salon. It wasn't just vanity. This was Shreda carrying herself with grace. And of course,
it was also her being a teenager, because honestly, there wasn't much to do sometimes so the girls would pamper themselves, and there's no harm in that.
Teachers noticed that Shreda was polite, well-mannered, engaged, and the student who arrived in first period awake when everyone else was half asleep.
Shareda was selected for the Teacher's Choice Award.
She made that big of an impression on her teachers.
Shreda loved to laugh, and she also enjoyed reruns of I Love Lucy, and she enjoyed SpongeBob Squarepants.
she didn't need much to make her happy.
She liked hanging out on the couch,
and she did like to enjoy TV with someone else.
She was very social,
but she did have her best friends,
Veronica Briggs, Ashley Mendez, and Ariel Norton.
They liked sleepovers, going to the mall,
and talking on the phone for hours.
You gotta love the 90s nostalgia.
And then church kept Sherita anchored and grounded.
At Ashborough United Methodist Church,
she was in the youth group.
This wasn't just an activity,
was part of her community, and on the weekends, she babysat for families and friends. Kids absolutely
adored her because she was fun, but she was also very nurturing. She was kind of like a big sister.
Parents trusted her because she acted like someone older than she was, and that's the wisdom
that comes from having older siblings and also being an older sibling. Underneath at all was a creative
eye. Sherita loved photography. She loved capturing those small everyday moments. A siblings almost
smile, the rain on a bus window, the moment right before a joke makes somebody laugh. And she collected
those memories in pictures. But that was just a hobby. When it came to what matter to her in all
seriousness, she had her heart set on something bigger, social work. She wanted to help people
for a living because in practice, she was already doing it. She was showing up listening,
caring for those around her. And by her junior year at Pensacan High School, Sherita had started
researching colleges. She wasn't drifting through high school. She was building towards a future that
fit who she was, bright, present, and service-minded. She was a friend that you would call for
last-minute plans knowing that she would show up, no questions asked. Now, she did have a cell phone,
albeit it was one of those ones with the prepaid minutes, but she would call if she was running
late. This is the girl at the center of this story. And by November 29th of 2003, she had just turned
16 a few weeks ago. So barely over 15 when she just vanished. She had just celebrated Thanksgiving as a family.
And the next day, while still on fall break, Sherita got bored sitting around the house.
She told her mom that afternoon she was going to brave the storm, picked up her umbrella, and said,
I'm meeting up with Pinky. That was Veronica. And we're going to Hollywood salon to get our nails done.
I'll be back later. This did not raise any red flags in Wilma's mind. It was completely
normal. She should only be there maybe a couple hours. When Sharita didn't show back up later that evening,
Wilma still wasn't worried. Again, completely normal. She probably decided to walk to Veronica's and
spend the night there. Now, to be clear, Sherita wasn't the type of teenager that took risks. She didn't
hang out with a dangerous crowd. She didn't get into trouble. But when Saturday morning came,
and she hadn't even let her parents know that she was okay, that's when things shifted. And this is
where I left off, a frantic mother that realized that something isn't right and wonders, how long
has her daughter really been gone? And this was because Veronica told her, yeah, we got our nails done,
but we went our separate ways afterward. And that was hours ago, late into Friday evening when it was
already dark outside. The walk home from the salon is about 15 minutes, and it was raining and
cold outside. So where else would she have gone? Wilma checked her room, and that's when she realized
Sharita left her cell phone on the dresser. When she picked it up, Wilma could see it had run out of
minutes. And if you are younger, some phones were under contracts where every month you would get a
certain amount of minutes that you could use. And if you didn't, they would sort of roll over to the next
month so you could kind of build up your minutes to talk to your friends and whatnot. There were times
at the night when calls were free and didn't use your minutes. But let's say you weren't 18,
you're even younger, or you couldn't afford to have a contract on your phone. You could buy cards
from places like Walmart or the gas stations,
and they would literally have minutes on them.
It was like a prepaid card.
And you would also get a special prepaid cell phone, okay,
that had no contract.
And you would buy the cards,
and you would actually put those minutes on your phone.
But when you ran out, your phone was useless
until you bought another one of those cards.
So you would not be able to use your phone.
So there was Sharita's cell phone left behind.
Now, her mom knew,
that if she had no minutes,
there wouldn't be any point in her bringing her phone.
So, okay, fine.
But here's what was unusual.
To Wilma, this meant that Sharita planned to come back home
because if she was going to go anywhere else,
she would have asked Wilma to borrow her phone
that had a contract on it
that wouldn't run out of minutes.
That was something she did all the time
when she was going to be out later.
So now that was concerning.
She did take her umbrella,
her jacket, her purse, and her wallet,
all the things she would have needed
for a quick appointment to get her nails.
done. Wilma had a horrible stomach pain. Talk about a gut feeling. She was physically ill.
She and her husband decide they're going to drive around the neighborhood. Now it's still
early, around 8.30 in the morning and they're making their rounds around familiar streets,
but after a while it doesn't do any good. They go back home and they make more calls. One was to
Ashley Mendez, one of Sherida's best friends, and by now she realized that this was serious.
So that's when Ashley admitted to something. Now best friends don't usually tell
their bestie secrets, but Ashley knew that she had to do the right thing and tell Wilma
that Sharita had been hiding something. All right, everyone. Welcome to Arco Rewards Orientation.
I'm Hannah. Whoa. Is everything okay? That's a code green. Someone just earned at least five cents a
gallon in rewards. Wow. Another one? Well, that one's a code gold. The customer just redeemed
savings of up to a dollar a gallon. Impressive. What does that one mean? Oh, that's just piggy.
He gets excited when we talk about rewards.

She had a boyfriend.
Now, the thing is, her mom knew that her daughter talked to boys because they would call the house,
and she would be on the phone giggling and carrying on, but she wasn't exactly allowed to full-on date.
So this was news to her mother.
So much so she almost didn't believe Ashley, but she does get the guy's name, Greg.
Ashley said, I've never met him, but he lives out in Camden.
He's a little bit older and Sherita has the biggest crush on him.
So she goes to see him over his place and they've been hanging out.
But the thing that Shreda would do is she would say she was at a friend's house.
I think it's a common little lie that teenagers would tell, and it didn't seem like that big of a deal until now.
Ashley knew that he lived across that 36th Street Bridge because there were times when Sharia admitted to her, she was scared to cross it.
especially at night when it was dark.
The fact that Shareda's mom was hearing
that her daughter even crossed this bridge alone at night
was concerning because this was not a good part of town.
This was a bridge over railroad tracks
that led into Camden, the same town where Shareda's dad worked.
And I mentioned it being full of crime and poverty.
Ashley told Wilma that Shareda would say it's really scary,
but she would brave it to get to Greg's house.
And I'm thinking, why doesn't the boyfriend come to her?
Why is he making her walk at night
to him. And by the way, if this at all sounds familiar, the bridge over the railroad tracks,
that's because I recently did a case about college students and one of them did use a bridge
to cross over railroad tracks in the middle of the night. So if you're having deja vu,
you're not wrong. If you haven't watched that yet, I will link it above and below in the
description box, but don't go now. Save that for right after this. Now, Wilma and Harry are
tracking down this Greg person's address. It doesn't take long because Harry has some connections
in law enforcement. And he's able to do that.
able to find out where this house is located in Camden. Now let's say she walked from the beauty salon
or her home to the bridge. That would be a 30-minute walk alone just to paint a picture of what this
area looked like. There is a lot of graffiti underneath the bridge. This is the kind of place where people
would go to do drugs, drink alcohol, sleep if they didn't have a home. Definitely not a safe place for a
teenager to be walking at night. So of course, her parents are very concerned at this point. And Harry
Wilma decide they're going to go split up.
Wilma takes one car, Harry takes another,
and he calls his sister Patricia and they go off to Greg's house
while Wilma decides to take a trip to the bridge.
She'll later say that this was intuition,
but of course we know that Ashley also mentioned it,
but she just had a feeling she should go check that out.
So let's start with Harry and Patricia.
They go to Greg's house, his mom answers the door,
and she admits yes, her son and Sherita had been hanging out recently,
and yes, Sharita had come there the night before.
But she left after Greg's mom said he wasn't available to see her.
His mom said he needed to get his rest.
He had been working all day with his dad,
and then he had to do a shift at his job at 11 p.m.
So between those times, his mom wanted him to just stay in bed,
not hang out with Sharita.
So she turned her away.
She didn't even come inside, according to Greg's mother.
Now, that's even more concerning to Harry.
That meant Sherita left.
even later at night and attempted to walk home.
That's about at least an hour, alone in the dark,
in a bad area.
It's just so disappointing because parents will feel like,
wow, why couldn't my child let me know?
I wouldn't have gotten mad because they did not want her seriously dating.
Sure, but knowing that she was all alone out there,
somebody would have given her a ride.
That's really worrisome.
And I know teenagers always think like,
oh, they're not going to understand.
I'm going to get in trouble.
But thinking about her walking,
along this route, it was really, really horrifying to think about.
It probably wouldn't have been such a big deal if she wasn't missing at this point.
Harry tells Greg's mom, Shareda's missing.
And he's sort of waiting for her to get concerned.
But she doesn't. She doesn't even flinch.
She's like, teens will be teens. You know what I mean?
Like, this is normal. They're probably just out. They don't want you to know where they are.
But that's not Shereida.
So now let's get to what Wilma was doing.
It's around 10 a.m. and she gets to the 36th Street Bridge.
She's driving over it.
She slows down and she doesn't see anything that catches her eye at all.
She makes sure she's looking on both sides and there's no sign of Sharita or her belongings.
I mean, she didn't even know what she was looking for.
She was just looking for something to piece together this puzzle.
Anything that's out of place, a dropped umbrella, maybe a charm that matches jewelry her daughter was wearing, a shoe in the gutter.
But she sees nothing.
From the driver's seed, everything about this bridge looks normal.
The stone, the shrubs on the side, the trash.
from the freight train.
She sits there for a moment or two longer,
but she thinks to herself,
if there was something wrong here, I would see it,
and I would know.
Both Wilma and her husband and his sister
are rechecking every path.
They're going down Camden's side streets,
they're scanning doorways, bus shelters.
They stop at a payphone off of 32nd Street.
The one that kids will still use
when their minutes run out.
But there's nothing.
The family makes their way back home,
but when a family member is missing,
you can feel it.
Wilma calls her other children down, they meet together,
they talk about the last time they've heard or seen Sharita.
No one has for at least a day.
Wilma tries the salon again and this time someone says,
of course we know Sharita. She was in there all the time.
The last time they saw her was around 6 p.m.
She was leaving the salon in the rain with a friend.
It wasn't really a lead, but it was another piece of the timeline.
But then what happened next?
Was this when she walked the 30 minutes to the bridge and then the extra 15 to Gregs?
because that would mean it would be close to 7 p.m. and definitely after dark.
They know she made it to Gregs according to his mother, so did she backtrack home right away?
They don't know. Harry swings by the school lot even though it makes no sense to be there,
but sometimes just seeing places where your child belongs and it reminds you of them
is where you go because you have nowhere else to look. Meanwhile, Wilma felt something was pulling her to
check the bridge again. This time,
she gets in her car, Harry and his again with his sister Patricia, and they both go their separate
ways to retrace Streat's path from the salon to where the bridge was to Greg's house again.
Now Wilma gets to the bridge. It's close to 2 p.m. at this point. The rain has stopped and she can see better.
She decides this time she's going to park her car and get out. Once she's on top, she pulls over,
she walks to one side. She peers over towards the gravel road,
and there's a drop below the bridge to the embankment
and something catches her eye.
There is a shape near the slope underneath the bridge.
You know the place where you can kind of see underneath
and sometimes catch a glimpse of someone asleep over there?
Like maybe when it's raining out,
that was what Wilma was seeing,
and she wondered what it was.
It looked like a person and she's squinting
and she's like, it's a man.
Maybe a drug addict without a home sleeping right under the bridge
to take cover during the rain or worse.
maybe he wasn't alive.
Is he breathing?
She can't tell.
She's like, oh God, I don't see any movement.
He doesn't have a jacket on.
It's way too cold.
So she tells herself she needs to call 911
because this poor man,
at least it isn't her daughter.
But her daughter crossed that bridge,
a bridge with a possible dead man underneath it.
So there were so many thoughts going through her mind.
At 2.15, with her hands shaking,
she dials 911.
Now for the second time that day,
this time to report a possible dead body.
Woma waits and when the dispatcher comes on,
she said, listen, I'm over here at the 36th Street Bridge
and my daughter is missing and I'm looking under the bridge
because she walked here last night
and there's a dead body under there.
It's not her, but I'm looking for my daughter.
You know what she's probably thinking.
Here's this man deceased in a place where her daughter was terrified to go
and to think she was near this area.
It was too much.
She thought about the time.
type of people that Sharita could have encountered there, and she believed the dead man was probably
a transient individual that had succumbed to the elements or suffered a drug overdose. Just hours,
after Wilma called the police to report her daughter missing, she stumbled upon a dead body.
I'm sure that this was a very traumatizing. After she was done talking to the dispatcher,
she hung up and she immediately called her husband and told him what was going on. As a corrections
officer, someone that wears a badge and works with law enforcement, Harry hurries to that bridge.
Everyone is in shock, as you can possibly imagine. These parents are looking for their daughter,
and now they're dealing with this. When Harry and Patricia arrive, the area is completely blocked
off with crime scene tape. All Harry wants to know is where is his wife and what is going on.
But unlike his wife, his mind goes straight to, I want to see who's under this bridge. I want to know
that it's not my daughter.
But they will not let him get close.
Of course not.
Because this might be a crime scene.
They tell him, sir, you've got to get back.
They don't want to risk evidence being contaminated.
They don't know who this man is.
He's trying to explain,
my daughter is missing.
But it doesn't matter.
He can't go under that yellow tape.
Homicide detective Bill Wheeler
is actually just in the middle of a shift change
when he gets a call.
And this man has already worked all night long,
but he doesn't bother to go home
because he knows he is going to need to be.
need to race to get to the scene where they found a dead man's body. Wilma had indeed found someone
who was deceased. When Detective Wheeler gets there, he's taking it all in. He's looking underneath
the bridge. There's trash, all kinds of food wrappers around graffiti on the walls, litter all over
the place, debris, but there's also cigarette butts, and we know we can get DNA from that. It's just
like a dumping ground. But when he comes up to check on the deceased, he can tell right away.
this is no accident. And it doesn't look like a man at all. It was a female, a young female,
possibly 18, so wait. That changes everything. I'm like, what do they mean? Wilma said it was a man.
But it was the shock and the trauma of the entire situation. It had actually blocked her brain
from receiving what she was seeing. And I know that some of you are not going to believe this,
or maybe you're skeptical. Well, let me tell you, I
I've read about this at least two times before.
I was researching the Idaho case where the four college students were murdered by Brian
Koberger, many of you have been following that case, and you know a lot of the details.
Well, a lot of people were confused.
They kept saying, why didn't the roommates know that there was blood all over the place over
their roommate's body?
And it made me think to a very similar case in Florida where I'm from.
It was in Gainesville.
It was the college murders.
Danny Rowling was the killer.
And it's the true story behind the screen movies.
Well, in the first case in Gainesville, many years ago,
the roommate that was in that case actually heard something.
She went to the bathroom.
Then she looked into her roommate's bedroom.
And if we were to really look at what happened there,
you would see blood covering everything,
smears on the wall, pools on the floor.
But she didn't.
She had been drinking that night, like many college students do,
even the ones in the Idaho case.
And this woman thought it was vomit.
She thought that her roommate had gotten sick, and she thought that's what she saw on the floor.
She didn't know was blood until paramedics got there, and they were sick to their stomach from what they saw,
and that's when a light bulb went off, and everything clicked, and she saw the blood.
So if you are wondering, our brain does protect us in high-stress situations, and that seemed like what happened in Wilma's case,
because this was clearly a young woman.
A young woman that matched Shareda's description down to what she was wearing when she was
seen. Jeans, a button-down black long-sleeved shirt and a jacket. The jacket wasn't on her,
but the shirt was, and it was open, exposing her chest. And her jeans were unbuttoned. This young
woman was lying on her back, her feet facing towards the bottom of the slope, so you can
probably picture what this overpass looks like. A lot of times they are cement, but back then,
this one was still dirt. And there were these wooden slabs, if you're watching, I'm going to show them.
they're kind of inside embedded in the dirt so you could use them to climb up towards the top of the slope
underneath the overpass. Investigators believe they have actually found Sherita Williams' body.
So they are signaling to her Aunt Patricia while her father is kind of like off to the side
and they're looking at the aunt and saying like get him out of here. Now they didn't specifically say anything.
They just were like, take him home. So she did. They were just waiting around not knowing what was going on back home.
their daughter's still missing. But Harry knew when he was at the scene that it was too much of a
coincidence. He thought it was Shreda, even if he held it in. Sergeant Martin Wolf joins Detective
Wheeler at the scene. They took a closer look at the deceased woman, trying to make sense of how
she ended up there. As I explained, she was partially clothed, just her top was open, but her pants
were on, just unbuttoned. She was not wearing her shoes or her jacket, but they were both nearby
and muddy. As Sergeant Martin lifted her shirt, he noticed that the skin on her waist had marks
on it on both sides. And as he pushed her jeans down just a little bit by the band, there were more
of these marks. They were almost like a rug burn, but in tiny lines. And he realized this was from her
underwear. Her underwear being pulled off of her in a struggle. It left indentation marks on her
skin. And she was not wearing underwear. So now they think that she had been
redress, so to speak, and that her jeans were put back on. They look around and they do find a pair
of black, stretched out, and ripped underwear at the scene right near the overpass, only a few
feet away from her body. Now they suspect that she had been violated, and that could be the motive.
Next, they look at what is around her neck. It's some kind of cloth wrapped tightly around several
times, and as they examine it, they determine that it is a black du rag. This is a head covering,
usually worn by men, it can be worn by women, but this appeared to have been used as a ligature
to cut off her airway. And it did not look like it belonged to Sharita, so they suspected it was the
killers. The most shocking fine for detectives was actually what was inside of her mouth. Not one.
