I hadn't realized how common it is for females to write to prison inmates as pen pals, I read that some prisoners on death row or with long term sentences spend most of their time writing to women. Here in the UK it's what some notorious prisoners do with most of their time incarcerated. Some of them marry their pen pals. If Sherry was attracted to 'naughty' boys as her family have indicated it could follow that she would be interested in writing to a prisoner if she was no longer free to see local friends once removed from home. This could have been her incentive for her huge journey down to Texas.
I think it's possible that rather than a trucker she was attacked by one of the couple of men in the car she was seen talking to / entering the last time she was seen. It could be more likely that she was attacked by a couple as there were no restraint marks on her wrists to indicate they had been bound, she could have been held down by an accomplice and her body could more easily have been disposed of if there were two assailants. Her body was further from the road but there were no drag marks and this could be achieved easily with two people carrying her. It is less likely than a lone killer but sadly there have been pairs of killers usually one sadistic killer with an accomplice.
My heart goes out to Sherry and her family, she had a wonderful smile and such beautiful eyes.
