3:02:17Now Playing🔎 The Summer Wells Case: Don Wells' Step-Sister Mary Speaks Out | The Interview Room with Chris McDonough
Five years after 5-year-old Summer Moon Utah Wells vanished from her family home in Rogersville, Tennessee, on June 15, 2021, the case remains unsolved. Join retired homicide detective Chris McDonough and special guest Mary, step-sister of Don Wells, for an in-depth conversation on family dynamics, past allegations, and the ongoing search for justice for Summer.
Mary shares her perspective as a survivor, her experiences with Don, and insights into the family that only someone who grew up in that environment can provide. We discuss public statements, reported inconsistencies, and what the past can reveal about patterns of behavior — all while keeping the focus on finding Summer and supporting victims.
This is a powerful and important discussion you won't want to miss.
