Why did the teenage girl refuse to tell who hurt her?

Episode 7 of the Sheriff Country features a case of a brutal assault in Edgewater High School, where Allison Duffy, a seventeen-year-old, is found severely beaten up. The girl refuses to reveal her attacker to Sheriff Mickey Fox. Even other students stay silent about what they saw. All this changes when a video of the beating is made available online.

We can see in the video that the beating was caused by her best friend, Darcey. But Allison still protects her attacker. Mickey realizes the girls are covering up something bigger. They fought with Darcey over a mysterious boy. The person they are actually protecting is not a boy at all. Mickey Fox knows that a teacher at the school is the real problem behind the violence.


Who was secretly preying on the high school girls?

Sheriff Country uncovers a disturbing predator working right inside Edgewater High School. Mickey Fox suspects the favorite teacher, Mr. Diamond, at first. She feels terrible questioning him because he once helped her graduate. However, the hidden killer is the school guidance counselor by the name of Gary. Gary is a young man who is good-looking and not too old to be with the students. He would approach vulnerable girls in single-parent families that require observation.

He buys them expensive jewelry with Shelley poems engraved inside. The girls cannot report him because they see him every day at school. Mickey sets a trap to expose Gary's lies about caring for them. Gary is arrested and faces jail time. Sheriff Country shows how predators hide in places where they can access troubled young people.

As a couple is responding to a call, the case of a divorcing couple gets out of hand when the husband suffers burns, leading to his death.
