No one finds it odd that someone who is buying so many big ticket items is paying for things routinely with money orders?
That wasn’t typical of Sherrill’s social and economic status of the time. Nor of divorced women. Nor of beauticians. My mother was divorced and single growing up and made less than Sherrill—she still had a bank account and so did most people we know. And this isn’t anecdotal. I lived in the Springfield area. My uncle who was always doing sketchy stuff used money orders. It was usually to avoid using a bank. Now it could be innocently avoiding the bank, or there could be other reasons (a lead perhaps?).
