NEWTON, N.C. — Search warrants in the Maggie Daniels’ murder case have been unsealed.
Sharman Odom was indicted on charges that he kidnapped, sexually assaulted and killed the popular high school counselor on June 27th.
The warrants revealed that investigators found makes around Daniels’ neck that were consistent with being strangled.
Several items inside her home were also out of place or damaged making police believe there was a struggle. Officials also found several curly black hairs under Daniels’ nails and throughout the home that were not consistent with her hair.
Police also talked to a witness who claimed Odom showed them pictures of Daniels from her social media accounts and claimed he wanted to ‘get with’ her.
The warrants also claim that Odom was the only person in the case that refused to provide DNA samples because he ‘did not trust law enforcement.’
Prosecutors have filed a motion for the death penalty against Odom. However, an official date for the hearing has not been set.
