Detective confronts Kimberly Kessler: 'Something you didn't plan' happened

Talks about an argument Kessler had with Jolene on May 9. They also post more photos but nothing looked important and frankly irrelevant. Photos inside Jolenes home pointing out that the home had clothing kind of scattered and a few holes in the walls. Her family was pretty upset about the photos.

Some photos are of items they found at the location they found Kessler.

Detective confronts Kimberly Kessler: 'Something you didn't plan' happened

April 25, 2019

Two hours into the interview, which took place just days after Kessler's arrest, the detectives shift gears.

“Something you didn't plan happened; something bad,” one of them says.

They tell her they have surveillance video and evidence from Tangles, the hair salon where the women worked together.

That evidence, later released by prosecutors, includes an unsettling amount of blood found on the salon’s walls, chairs, cabinet and sink.

The detectives tell Kessler that investigators searched her storage unit and found her shoes with Cummings' blood on them.

Kessler's chatty demeanor shifts. She goes quiet.

WATCH: Detectives confront Kimberly Kessler

During the interview, Kessler had told the detectives about her past -- that she'd left her 14-month-old son behind nearly 20 years ago and hadn't seen him since. She told them she worked as a stripper, a cocktail waitress, a truck driver, and got a realtor’s license in Arizona. She said she hasn't talked to her family in Pennsylvania in a long time.

After confronting Kessler with the evidence, one of the detectives acknowledges the burdens Kessler carries, saying now she has one more. He tells her the dream life she's been hoping for probably isn't going to happen.

They know about the tension between Kessler and Cummings, he says.
