The impending trial for the attempted murder of Rhea Dawa has been one of the most talked about topics among the citizens of Barton Hollow in recent months. Dawa had stumbled upon the Wallace Plantation and had sustained numerous injuries, and despite her claims that Cooper Wallace and Emery Reece were innocent and only wanted to help her, Wallace face scrutiny from the authorities--and eventually many within the town--and was brought up to trial. The months that followed were stressful, agonizing even, as the rumor mill was turning and Cooper’s life was hanging in the balance. Recently, however, there has been a bit of a road block for the prosecution. Undisclosed DNA evidence was found and compared to Cooper’s, and he was soon exonerated. The killer is still on the loose, but at least Cooper is out of the coop. Hopefully, this ol' rooster will reintegrate with the flock.
