Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I whakaatu te whaea o tētahi kōtiro o Alabama i roto i ngā roimata i te Rāhina, kāore i tika kia ora te kuia o te tamaiti i muri i tana whiunga mō te rere i tana mokopuna iwa-tau-tau ki te mate. I tū a Heather Walker ki te tautoko i ngā kaiwhakawā e hiahia ana ki te whiu mate mō tōna hungawai o mua, a Joyce Hardin Garrard. I kii a Walker ko te 49-tau te pakeke o Garrard 'kaore e tohungia' i muri i tana whiunga mo te patu nui i te matenga o Savannah Hardin. Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. I mate a Savannah Hardin (matau) i te tau 2012 i muri i te whiu a tona kuia i a ia ma te tuku i a ia ki te rere huri noa i te whare mo nga haora e toru. Ko tana whaea, ko Heather Walker (matau), i korero ki te kooti e whakapono ana ia ko tana hungawai o mua e tika ana te whiu mate. I kitea a Joyce Hardin Garrard he hara mo te kohuru nui i te Paraire. I muri i te toru haora neke atu i te whakaaroaro, i kitea e te poari o Etowah County he hara a Garrard mo te matenga o tana mokopuna iwa-tau-tau, a Savannah Hardin. 'Kei te whakaaro ahau kaore au e kite i te pouri, a kua tangohia e ia te oranga o taku tamaiti,' ka mea a Walker mo Garrard. I te noho i te taha o te tēpu tiaki, kāore a Garrard i whakaatu i tētahi āhuatanga. I taua wā, he uaua ki te mārama ki te nuinga o te whakaaturanga a Walker nā te mea i tangi tonu ia. Ko Walker, kua whakarere i te tama a Garrard a Robert, kua marenatia ano, i kii kaore ia i whakaaetia kia kite i a Savannah i nga tau e rua whakamutunga o te oranga o te kotiro. He maha nga kohinga tiaki i tukuna atu e ia, i whakahokia mai ki a ia, a, i a ia e waea ana ki nga nama, i te mutunga kua hurihia nga nama whakapā katoa i a ia. Engari i tētahi rā ka waea mai tētahi tau kāore i mōhiotia e ia, i kī a ia ki te kōti i te Mane, ā, ko Rōpeka tērā i waea mai ki te kōrero i mate ai a Savannah i te pupuhi roro i muri i tētahi mate pukupuku. 'Ko tehea wā ka taea e koe te tae mai ki konei?', ka ui ia. I taua wā i roto i tana whakaaturanga ka tangi a Ms. Walker, e whakamārama ana i te āhua o tana whakamātau kia nui ake ngā mōhiohio. I te mutunga ka kitea e ia tana tamahine i te Whare Hauora o nga Tamariki i kii tetahi tangata i runga i te raina e hiahia ana ia ki te 'whakaaetanga a te kuia' ki te hoatu ki a Heather...
I whakawakia a Joyce Hardin Garrad, 49, mō te kohuru i tana mokopuna a Savannah Hardin, iwa tau, i te tau 2012. I rongo te marae i a ia e kawe ana i te rakau ki te tamaiti mo nga haora e toru. I pāngia a Savannah e te mate mate pukupuku, ā, i mate i te hōhipera i ngā rā e toru i muri mai. Ko Heather Walker, te whaea o Savannah, i kii ko Garrard 'kaore e tohungia' i a ia e whakaatu ana i roto i te kooti. I kitea a Garrard he hara mo te kohuru i te Paraire, ā, ka whiua ia ki te mate.
