Teflon Shelly

by Ron Ryan

The accidental carbon monoxide deaths of her brother and sisters in 1966 left Shelly Summers an only child that encountered both sexual and physical abuse. Three of her own children would populate the rural cemetery east of the flashing yellow light in the little hamlet in Central New York having met horrific deaths. Two of which were burned alive. Three other children that had a connection with Shelly would meet a fiery demise and a seventh child would mysteriously drown. Unknown to Shelly, a classmate and fellow Boy Scout of her brother killed in the 1966 carbon monoxide accident would become a fire investigator in the county where Shelly was born and raised. His suspicions of the fires Shelly was affiliated with along with his attention to detail convinced police, prosecutors and fire investigators of multiple counties and agencies to utilize their resources to end the forty-two years of fires that followed Shelly and terminate "Teflon Shelly's" reign of terror.

[Carol · Rating 4 out of 5]

What an unbelievable story of a complete psychopath but was able to evade arrest for years. Disgusted to hear she was recently released. Not the best writing but he is fire investigator with straight forward facts.
