Ken Yang, Collins-Smith’s former press secretary, told NBC News that O’Donnell and Collins-Smith were friends and worked together last year. The ex-senator's family said in a statement it is "sickened" over the arrest.

This case is so strange to me. I’m curious what the motive was.

I guess norms are different for families and communities. It’s sad in general, but there’s something...idk, she’s a mom and grandma yet it was a couple days before she was discovered and it doesn’t sound like anyone had started getting concerned. In addition, if I heard gunshots in my neighborhood, I’d call to report it so that a neighbor said after the fact they heard gunshots a couple days prior and again nothing about the shots being reported, is all strange to me. Maybe all these are also things they are withholding while they are still investigating but I can’t think of a reason why.
