| 0:00.0 | Hello, everyone, and welcome to Police Off the Cuff Real Crime Stories. |
| 0:06.2 | You know, the homicide of Sunshine Stewart is extremely baffling. |
| 0:13.0 | And it's one of those cases that is a real, real, real, whodunit. |
| 0:19.6 | And two of the things I thought of right away is, is this a stranger, |
| 0:25.9 | or is this someone that she knows? And right now, that is totally undetermined and baffling, I think, |
| 0:35.6 | everyone. All of the details here are really pretty much baffling to everyone that has been following this case. |

| 1:38.6 | You notice they say near. |
| 1:40.4 | They don't say on or where or in the water or on the land. |
| 1:46.8 | So we're all left guessing. |
| 1:54.4 | Ten days later, there have been no arrest. Is that something to get crazy about? No, in the world of homicide, 10 days is not an eternity. It takes a long time to investigate these things. Main State Police are warning |
| 2:05.1 | the community to stay vigilant but have not divulged the cause of death or any details about the |
| 2:11.6 | crime scene, leaving Stewart's family with questions and nearby residents with fears that a killer |
| 2:17.2 | may be among them. |
