JUSTICE FOR EVELYN
Strickler said the investigation into Evelyn’s death is still ongoing. He said the COVID-19 pandemic has not slowed the process.
“I can say this. We will never, ever, forget Evelyn Boswell. Ever,” Strickler said.
But investigators are waiting on the autopsy results, plus forensic evidence and lab results. Strickler says this could still take over a month. He said lots of work needs to be done before they’ll be ready to make any type of indictment in the case, and it’s impossible to say right now when that could happen.
While her body was found on March 6th, Strickler does not know when exactly Evelyn Boswell died.
“We’ll know more when the autopsy results come back,” he said.
Strickler also isn’t able to give any more specific details on the body found inside a shed on property of the Boswell family.
“That will all be a part of the findings, as far as our presentation to potential criminal prosecution,” he said.
He says investigators haven’t spoken with Megan since Evelyn’s body was located. He said Megan now has an attorney.
Brad Sproles was appointed as Megan’s attorney in March.
Strickler said investigators have also not interviewed any members of Megan’s family since Evelyn’s body was found. But the Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office is still following up on any leads they receive.
“Any type of lead that may still continue to come in, we send investigators out on it,” he said.
Strickler said investigators have weekly meetings with the District Attorney’s Office, which will carry out the legal end of the case. He calls their investigative process ‘slow’ and ‘methodical,’ because they can’t afford to make mistakes.
“What we have seen, and what we’ve been through, and the fight that we’ve had, which has been overwhelming, frustrating,” Strickler said. “There’s so many things that’s went on in this case that the general public doesn’t see. We all want justice for Evelyn. We all want that.”
