I wasn't sure where to post this thread, as some consider it solved and some don't. (Mods - feel free to move it)
It’s been 35 years since the killing of Ena and Rory Cordt in Forsyth.
The man who allegedly killed the mother and son was serial killer Tommy Lynn Sells; Sells was known as the “Coast to Coast killer.”
And now, Peggy Dirks, Ena’s daughter, is skeptical that Sells killed her mother and brother.
Taney County Detective Don Swan once got Sells to admit he murdered the two; Dirks doesn’t believe Sells.
“So for several years actually, I did believe that is who did it. That the case was solved, but then it was brought to my attention that the police did not believe that and they believed that Don went to the jail where Tommy Lynn Sells was and showed him a photo of my mom’s house and basically helped to feed him information that Tommy Lynn Sells would just agree with. He didn’t actually come up with any information on his own,” says Dirks.
