Midlands men in helicopter offer touching perspective of Swetlik motorcade
[...]

Todd Cockrell and Cliff Fisher took to the sky on Saturday as the motorcade entered Orangeburg County, following it up Interstate 26 before exiting in Lexington County.

“It was an experience to see it because it was very moving, chills almost go over you when you see it,” Cockrell said. “All those guys…what they did to honor her. It was moving.”

Fisher owns the helicopter and paid for the fuel to make the flight. Cockrell said the goal was to provide the public with an aerial perspective of the touching tribute for the slain six-year-old.

“Just flying over knowing she was in that car…at one point I was glad I wasn’t in control of the copter because my eyes got a little blurry,” he said. ”I turned and looked at Cliff and we couldn’t look at each other very long so we turned away.”

A memorial for Faye Swetlik on Airport Blvd. continues to grow
Balloons, flowers, stuffed animals and messages are part of a temporary memorial that continues to grow in memory of six year old Faye Swetlik.

CM brought his 8-year-old daughter to take a moment to remember an important lesson.

“I just wanted my daughter to see the fact that love wins, god wins. It’s hard to fathom what a father and mom go through when they lose a child and it’s very difficult. I don’t know how to explain it," says CM.

Neighbors, employers of Coty Taylor speak out
As the investigation continues into Coty Taylor, WACH FOX News delved deeper into his history and confirmed he worked at a Wingstop in West Columbia until his death.

He started out as a shift lead in June of 2016 and was promoted to general manager of the restaurant at a later date.

Man linked to death of S.C. girl graduated from Bluffton High School

FEB 17, 2020

The small community Coty Taylor lived in is surrounded by streets like Friendship Lane. Children play in their front yard and neighbors stay for 30 or more years.

Those who knew the family say they can’t stop looking for updates. Hoping for the best, fearing the worst.

Taylor has been linked to the death of 6-year-old Faye Swetlik, who vanished from her yard last week and her body was found in a wooded area near her home days later.

Police found the body of 30-year-old Taylor in his home.

[..]

Neighbors didn’t want to go on camera out of respect for the family they knew over a decade ago. But for those who knew Taylor’s family, they say they are shocked at the recent events.

Longtime residents say Taylor was quiet, smart, and ambitious. Neighbors recall his interest in robotics and how he seemed to have a good relationship with his three younger siblings. They say even though he seemed to be a bit of a loner, they thought he’d found his niche in science and math.
