When I visited Sunray, I never thought I’d be able to get into Tim Dean’s house — the place where the video of Tim hitting his daughter was recorded, and where he and Charlene Childers planned how they'd kill Josh Niles. We were there in the driveway, taking photos and peeking in windows, when someone walked across the street. She asked what we were doing — and then offered to let us in.

I've never had the chance to speak with Tim Dean and he declined every opportunity to speak during his trial or at his sentencing. That's why I find the body camera footage from his crash in Kansas to be so valuable — it’s the only time I've ever gotten to hear Tim speak about the plan and what was going on in his life in the days leading up to the shooting.

After sitting through the entire trial, sifting through dozens of crime scene photos and spending hours, on multiple occasions, with Josh Niles' family, I knew I wanted to make sure people understood how unusual this killing was. It's unlike any other story I've written about, and I want readers to know how that day has haunted Josh's family ever since.

I learned a lot about Tim Dean by talking to the people who knew him. Tim and Charlene met while working at the Dumas Police Department, where Tim was an officer and Charlene was a dog catcher. I met their supervisor, Lt. Tom Flood, while I was in Texas, and he gave me a glimpse into what they were like before any of this happened.

Aside from supervising Tim and Charlene, Tom Flood assisted with Tim's arrest in Texas. I learned from Tom that Tim and Charlene were suspects from the very beginning, and that on the night police arrested Tim, they wondered if he contemplated suicide before surrendering.
