I have known Shelley for more than 20 years. I have never known him to be cruel to anyone or violent for any reason. I was not at Ms. Beebe’s home, so I don’t know what happened, and the police have not completed their investigation. Shelley suffered injuries, as well, which wasn’t reported by the media. So I ask the public to give him the benefit of a doubt until they know his side of the story. He cannot comment, for legal reasons.
Please remember both Kendra and Shelley in your prayers.
