Sparks arrived in court, small, lean shackled and handcuffed. He took his seat without making eye contact with Savannah&#8217;s father, Cecil, 54, his fiancée, Cheryl Lynn Wright, or the young mother&#8217;s friends who sat by his side.<br />
Cecil Spurlock had arrived clutching a photograph of himself with his daughter.<br />

Later that day, the detective stated, Sparks went to Wal-Mart in Richmond and purchased an identical rug to the one found buried beside Savannah.<br />
Spark&#8217;s home in Lancaster, the last place where Savannah was seen alive, was searched on January 10 and the officer said that he had observed a grey rectangular rug in his bedroom, between his bed and a closet.<br />
A subsequent search conducted on April 2 revealed a blood stain on the inside of that closet door, the stain was invisible to the naked eye but showed following the use of a luminol based agent.<br />

When interviewed by detectives back in January, Sparks had told them that he and the other men had gone back to his house with Savannah.<br />
They left but he and Savannah remained. He claimed that she went to sleep in his bedroom while he slept on the couch.<br />
When he woke mid-morning he said that she asked him where she was apparently so she could arrange transport home.<br />
He claimed to have fallen asleep and that, when he woke again around noon, she had gone. He said she was uninjured when she did.<br />
But today, detective Chamings revealed that Sparks had visited his parents&#8217; home twice on the night of the 4th and in the early hours of the 5th of January.</p>
