Originally, Rita's investigation was just scratching the surface. They just never expected that a small reporter like her would uncover the truth about their development of that land years ago.

Back then, they had put in immense effort to deceive and relocate all the residents. Since the land was in the hands of Sherman's company, him turning against them was not out of the realm of possibility if anything inappropriate was exposed.
