WHEN her daughter was found murdered in the bath, Dee Sumpter was convinced someone she knew was behind the horrific killing.
There were no signs of forced entry into the family home, and suspicion first fell upon 20-year-old Shawna Hawk’s boyfriend Darryl Kirkpatrick.
While police quizzed Darryl, for weeks Dee’s mind tumbled with the names of everyone Shawna and the family knew.
The one person she never suspected was Shawna’s boss at restaurant chain Taco Bell – “sweet” Henry Wallace, who seemed so caring and considerate of her daughter.
He had been there for her at Shawna’s funeral, and, when they met in a shopping centre, hugged Dee tight to tell her how sorry he was for her loss.
