Tammy Papler said the local police, who were first to arrive on scene, harassed and threatened her and her employees. When the county sheriff arrived to assist, Papler informed him about the officers' behavior and said she and her employees believed Officer Carter, who was present at the scene, was responsible for the women's deaths.
As reported by CG Crimes Site, when Carter was questioned about his possible involvement, he reportedly admitted visiting the New Life Massage Parlor on the morning the women were killed. However, he insisted he returned home by 3 a.m., which was reportedly an hour before the murders occurred. He also purportedly denied owning a gun of the caliber used to commit the crimes.
When authorities questioned Carter's wife to corroborate his story, she allegedly said her husband was not home by 3 a.m., and actually returned home closer to 4 a.m. She also reportedly refuted his denial about owning a small-caliber handgun. CG Crimes Site reports she confirmed her husband did own a gun like the one used in the murders, and had kept it hidden under the mattress of their bed. However, it reportedly vanished before the women were killed.
Although Carter's wife was unable to confirm his alibi, he was not arrested and eventually moved out of town. As reported by Unsolved Mysteries, Papler was upset that her employees' murders went unsolved and, in her opinion, police corruption was to blame.
