February 11, 2021 The smell was unidentifiable at first whiff but was notably different from the vehicle's usual musty aroma. The car belonging to area boyfriend Ira Hewitt reportedly has a new smell, according to Hewitt’s girlfriend, Anna Messer. “I thought I knew what to expect, but I guess I just got too comfortable with whatever air freshener cocktail he’d been using,” Messer described. “But then the other day I got into his car, and it was like a stranger to me.” The new smell has reportedly been compromising for her: “I don’t have my license, so Ira just drives me, which is great, but I’m just so on edge with the new smell, I don’t know if I can be in that car anymore.”
