Remembering the Reynolds Case
"I remember this quite well. It was
not too long before my senior year in high school, so early 1956
would be the latest that it could have occurred. I'll try to find
some old newspaper accounts on it, since I've wondered about it
many times myself over the years. I do remember that Mr. Reynolds
was a teacher and basketball coach in Avard at the time, and I remember
being convinced that he was totally innocent. Mrs. Reynolds was
returning home after attending classes at Northwestern State. One
of the major questions and the reason they burned another car to
find out, was: How could her car have burned so fast that she couldn't
get out unless she was either already dead or some flammable substance
was used? As I recall the Reynolds incident took place on the Avard
road. I talked to Ed Doctor (Sheriff) and Elvin White (Undersheriff)
many years later and they were both still convinced that it was
a case of murder." -- Jim
