police think it was bob driving sherry s van to the hotel parking lot when the witness reported seeing it, and they think the store clerk was simply mistaken when he claimed sherry was in his store the day after. we pulled the tape and sherry was nowhere on the tape. at the trial, despite leading police to sherry s body, he plead not guilty and took the stand in his own defense. he told an incredible tale of two men who killed sherry and forced him to dispose of her body. they said they d kill him and the children if he went to the police. actually, i was having a hard time trying not to laugh, because i thought it was so ridiculous of a story that after two years in jail, you think he would come up with a better a better story.
she just didn t feel good around him. he would apparently be sort of monitoring her whereabouts. occasionally she would go to lunch with some of her friends and mr. durall would show up. so he, in effect, she describes the situation where you almost have a husband stalking his own wife. during police questioning, bob durall admitted there were problems in his marriage. as for him being involved in sherry s disappearance, he said that was ridiculous. police asked bob what happened on the night before she disappeared. bob said they went to dinner at a local restaurant. when they got home, sherry spoke with her sister-in-law. mrs. durall appeared slightly tipsy and told her she was going to bed and that her husband

play and there were no foreign fingerprints. even more troubling, sherry s personal bank account hadn t been touched since her disappearance. she just got a bonus at work and had just put that into the bank that week. so the theory from all the co-workers was why would she be putting all this money away and not leave with it, not touch it? police conducted extensive interviews with sherry s friend, kevin johnson. he insisted he had nothing to do with her disappearance. he was later able to provide some information what he was doing on the day she was reported missing. sherry s co-workers told them about a comment she made the day before she disappeared. she said if anything happens to me, my life is in my desk. and in her desk, among other things, was a long letter, a
robert durall had made her a drink. sherry s sister-in-law told police that she was very suspicious because bob seldom served his wife. usually it was the other way around. they said it was extraordinarily atypical for mr. durall to make his wife a drink of any kind or to serve her any kind of food or drink. and sherry s best friend had one final insight. it was a dream she had about sherry the night before she disappeared. i woke my husband up like at 12:30, 1:00 in the morning and i said i had the worst dream about blood everywhere and couldn t get back to sleep. and i feel like that was a message being passed to me like do something with this, you know.
