He Was Never Charged

Although Parkhurst had originally claimed that what he believed he had hit was a post, he later on recanted, saying, “That did not happen, but I don’t know why the police never challenged me on this. I wish they did and I would have told them the truth.” But due to the fact that the statute of limitations in his case was expired, he ended up choosing to confess also knowing that he could no longer get charged for the girl’s murder.

Waiting For Him To Say Sorry

Sadly for Carolee’s family, Parkhurst’s public apology came too late as her mom had passed away without Parkhurst apologizing to them directly. Carolee’s sister even said, “My mom publicly asked him for an apology and she forgave him and he still did not reach out to her. My mom, she went through her life looking for answers and questioning people.”
