But first I want 23 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: to go to a net Newell KXL news host speaking 24 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 2: freely with a net newle a net. 25 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: Thank you for being with us. 26 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 2: When they say they just state that police and fire 27 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:42,759 Speaker 2: crews discover a body at South fifth and seventy eight place, 28 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 2: I doubt very seriously that the fire department happened to 29 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 2: be just strolling by an abandoned barn. So this had 30 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 2: to come from a tip of some sort. 31 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, there was a tip. Somebody called in a tip, 32 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 4: and the local fire department went out there and they 33 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 4: discovered a body. And since then the medical examiner found 34 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 4: out this person died from blunt force trauma to her 35 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 4: head and neck. 36 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 2: Oh, I want to talk about the shock of just 37 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 2: suddenly discovering a dead body with me. Is Jarrett Fiorentino, 38 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:27,399 Speaker 2: high profile homicide prosecutor joining us out of Pennsylvania. Jarrett, 39 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 2: I've dealt with so many witnesses that come upon a 40 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,399 Speaker 2: dead body, a body, and it's something they never get over. 41 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 2: And we often hear about a jogger was out and 42 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 2: finds a body, or here's a good example in the 43 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: case of Lacy Peterson and her unborn baby, Connor. A guy, 44 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: a person was out walking their dog along the beach 45 00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 2: and there they find Lacey's body on the beage within 46 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 2: twenty four hours, the baby's body looking like a little 47 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:11,679 Speaker 2: plastic baby doll, perfectly pristained, while Lacy had been largely decomposed. 48 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 2: It's a shot that witnesses really never get over that 49 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 2: aren't used to seeing dead bodies, Jared. 50 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 5: They don't, And oftentimes, Nancy, that's where the story begins, 51 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 5: with the discovery of the body. You know, certainly that's 52 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 5: often the first witness I call in many of the 53 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 5: homicide cases I've had, And it's a human interest component 54 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 5: to the cases too. What was that particular individual doing 55 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 5: in a particular field, or what was that person's connection 56 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 5: to the barn, for example in this particular case. Obviously, 57 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 5: also you're looking at does the person that discover the 58 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 5: body have any connection to the deceased or any criminal activity. 59 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 5: So really it kicks off what is a large scale 60 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 5: investigation at any. 61 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: And you know, I know why a lot of people 62 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 2: don't want to get involved, because the person that finds 63 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 2: a body immediately comes under suspicion. 64 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: I mean, here's a good example. Take a look at 65 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: Alex Murdoch. 66 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,679 Speaker 2: Just got convicted in the double murder of his wife 67 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 2: Maggie and his son Paul, and the reality is, of 68 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 2: course he's the murderer, which is one reason why the 69 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 2: person who discovers the body is very often regarded as 70 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 2: a suspect, whether the police say it or not, because 71 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 2: so often that is the killer. 72 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 5: And that's true, that's true. I think there has to 73 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 5: be an examination of that particular person's eye to the region. 74 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: Why were they there? 75 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 5: Was it truly an innocent circumstance, And it's just part 76 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 5: of the investigation. If you remember Nancy, certainly with Kasey Anthony, 77 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 5: when the body was discovered, they were trying to lay 78 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 5: blame or examine why that particular individual was walking in 79 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 5: that area of the woods. 80 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: Wasn't it Roy Kronk or Ray. 81 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 5: Kronk who was that's correct. 82 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 2: Worked with either the electrical or the telephone or the 83 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 2: gas company and was out routinely and notices something white 84 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 2: in a swampy area and he had called cops and 85 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: then I guess weeks later, goes back and it's still there, 86 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: and he goes, listen, you need to come out here. 87 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 2: I called you a month ago, and sure you know, 88 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 2: it was Roy Kronk And they come and it is, 89 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 2: in fact, little Kelly's body, and he did come under 90 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 2: suspicion and that was used against him at the trial 91 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 2: of the real killer top Mom Casey Anthony. It's a 92 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 2: really good example to doctor John Delatory joining US licensed 93 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 2: psychologist mediator who specials specializes in forensic psychology. You can 94 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 2: find him on TikTok at doctor John Delatory, Doctor Delatory. 95 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: It's something that really haunts witnesses from that time forward. 96 00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: Not only are they. 97 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 2: Not put it out there and they'll publicize it an 98 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 2: immediate suspect, but it's out of anything typically that they've 99 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: ever seen. They've never seen a dead body, much less 100 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 2: someone that has been murdered in this brutal manner, and 101 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 2: it's so out of the ordinary that a lot of 102 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 2: times they carry that with them the rest of their lives. 103 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: They can't really get over what they found. 104 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 6: Well. 105 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 7: Absolutely, it also depends on the state of decomposition. Right, 106 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 7: how is the body's position? What else is going on? Right? 107 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 7: Have animals gotten to it? Have insects gotten to it? 108 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 2: Right? 109 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 7: Had the body been burned? Right? All these other things 110 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 7: that could have happened to the body that led to 111 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 7: that victim's debt. Right is there and witness and you 112 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 7: can smell it, you can see it right, you can 113 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 7: potentially feel it right. There's all so much that leads 114 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 7: to a flashful memory that any time that you're just 115 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 7: kind of in your own quiet mind can absolutely snap 116 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 7: it back into your head and triguer you back into 117 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 7: those heightened emotions of heightened anxiety and nervousness. Right. I 118 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 7: said that happened when you first saw that dead bio. 119 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 2: I first started prosecuting, and I'm sure that Jarrett Farentino 120 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 2: will appreciate this story. My cases were largely innocuous to 121 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 2: start with, and attempted shoplifting, dyslexic bank robber, the oldest 122 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 2: woman in Fulton County history to be prosecuted for grand larceny. 123 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: Then I started getting murder cases, and I had a 124 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 2: recurring dream after talking to so many witnesses that discovered 125 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 2: dead bodies of me. 126 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: And it seems like. 127 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 2: I was in an airport, but I was in somewhere 128 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: where there was a bathroom, and I went into the 129 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 2: lady's room and there were a lot of stalls. I 130 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 2: opened one up and there's a dead body there. I 131 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 2: actually still have that dream. I still have that dream, 132 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 2: and it started when I would interview witnesses that discover 133 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 2: a dead body and they're grappling with what they've seen 134 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 2: in trying to describe it. 135 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: Take a listen to our friends at crime Online. 136 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 8: It's a Saturday afternoon, around six pm early April when 137 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 8: Richfield Policed Apartment receive a call about a body.

When it's obvious that the 141 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 8: death is not a natural one. Two other calls go out, 142 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,119 Speaker 8: one to the Clerk County Sheriff's Office Major Crimes Unit 143 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 8: and to a similar unit headed by Vancouver Police.

Brant, 177 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 2: And at that time I we here at crime story 178 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 2: said I bet you anything at the end of that 179 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 2: dirt road is somebody's house that has a security camera. 180 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 2: And lo and behold there was a country church at 181 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 2: the end of that dirt road that had a camera. 182 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 2: And guess what they caught the few cars, very few 183 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 2: cars going up and down that road, and bam, case solved. 184 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: IRV. Brant, Well, you're right. 185 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 5: Maybe Fred Flintstone should come into the twenty first century 186 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 5: and realize this. 187 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 2: It's true, but the houses are a few and far between, 188 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 2: and certainly an abandoned house and an abandoned farm is 189 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 2: not going to have a ring doorbell camp. 190 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 5: That was my point. It seems like someone that was 191 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 5: intentional an abandoned place, a run down place, someplace to 192 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 5: dump a body. 193 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 2: I'm really surprised I did not put her body in 194 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 2: the barn. The barn must have been even though it 195 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: was dilapidated, secure so you couldn't get in there. 196 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: Have you thought of that or a Brant. 197 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 5: Yes, that's true, but you don't know what may have 198 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 5: been happening at the time. You don't know how rush 199 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,359 Speaker 5: those people may have been, or a person or person's 200 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 5: dumping a body could be in a very agitated state 201 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 5: and not really thinking clearly like you just thought it through. 202 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 5: They may have been just trying to get a body 203 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 5: out of a car then get out of there as 204 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 5: quickly as they can. 205 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 2: You're right, or a Brandt again, nobody wants to be 206 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 2: caught with a dead body. Time Stories with Nancy Greece 207 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 2: doctor Manisha Pandy joining me, chief forensic pathologist for Forensic 208 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: Pathologist LLC and Ohio. You can find doctor Pandy at 209 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 2: the forensic pathologist dot com. Doctor Pandy, we heard right 210 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 2: at the get go from a Nett mwle KXL that 211 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 2: she learned the cod while not complete, was a head injury. 212 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 2: How can you look at a body, even if on 213 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 2: the front of the body you don't see an injury. 214 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 2: How can you tell immediately by looking at the body 215 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 2: that the woman is dead from a bludgeoning death? 216 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 9: So the most important thing when you find the body 217 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 9: is like, what's going on? Right in this particular case, 218 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 9: most likely there's probably blood around the head, because if 219 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 9: you have had trauma, you're going to start bleeding from 220 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 9: the scalp. The scalp is very very vascular models blood vessels, 221 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 9: and there's probably lots of blood around it, and that's 222 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 9: why they're immediately thinking there's blood full of trauma to 223 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 9: the head. 224 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 2: You know, I'm thinking through what you're saying, how do 225 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 2: you know, doctor Pandy? How do would they know? What 226 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,719 Speaker 2: would they have seen to say this is a homicide 227 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,719 Speaker 2: bludgeting to the head before they complete the full autopsy. 228 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 2: And how do they know that this unidentified Jane do 229 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 2: didn't fall and hit her head. How would they know 230 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 2: the difference between falling on a rock or a tractor 231 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 2: or a farm implement and dying. How do they know 232 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 2: that didn't happen as opposed to a bludgeting death. 233 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 9: So there's probably more trauma than just the fault. If 234 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 9: you're falling, you just have trauma to one side of 235 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 9: the head. Here we are looking at a body first 236 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 9: of polics in a very remote location, which is finding 237 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 9: a body right there. It's suspicious, so you're already thinking 238 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 9: of homicide on the get go, and then you have 239 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 9: all this probably a person has lots of areas where 240 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 9: there was bleeding. They were probably multiple points, so they're 241 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 9: looking at that. And for you to fall down the 242 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 9: steps is a separate thing. You can have more injury. 243 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 9: But here's this flat land in which do you find 244 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 9: a body with multiple areas of bleeding or blood or 245 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 9: cloths everywhere. So they're thinking immediately, Oh, this person's probably 246 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 9: being hit with something. 247 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 2: And I guess the wound. There's a big difference. I mean, 248 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 2: there's nothing for her to fall from. She's not like 249 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 2: on a second or third floor, so she's. 250 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: On the ground. 251 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 2: I mean, if you're talking about a fall and she stumbles, 252 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 2: her falls and hits her head or has impact, you know, 253 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 2: like a skiing accident like on it Tasha Richardson and 254 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 2: Liam Nilsen's wife, she had a ski accident. She hit 255 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 2: her head once and she died later from bleeding to 256 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 2: the brain. That impact is much different When you look 257 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 2: at it, you don't really see much as opposed to 258 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 2: a she fell or stumbled and hit her head on 259 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 2: let's just pretend to farm implement, and it caused a concussion, 260 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 2: she died or it caused her death. 261 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: That's one wound as opposed to. 262 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 2: A bludgeoning so hard to the head, for instance, you 263 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:39,119 Speaker 2: could see the brain from a bludging. Those two injuries 264 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 2: to the naked eye look very different a bludgeoning versus 265 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 2: a death from a fall. 266 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: That's correct, guys. 267 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 2: And to make matters worse and more difficult to determine 268 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 2: cod and anything else about this case, we learned this 269 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 2: may not. 270 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: Have been the primary crime scene. 271 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 10: Let'st her friends in Clark County officials say a body 272 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 10: found then Ridgefield was found near an abandoned barn across 273 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 10: from the family Dollar east. 274 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: Of By five. 275 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 10: The Sheriff's office says early indications to show the body 276 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 10: was moved there. Detectives are looking for people who were 277 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 10: in contact with Speaks or anyone who saw any suspicious 278 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 10: vehicles or people in that area. You are asked to 279 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 10: contact the Clark County Sheriff's Office if you have information. 280 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 2: Got a big question, how can you tell? And I'm 281 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 2: going to throw this out to Jarrett Farantino, but everybody 282 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 2: jump on in with an idea. Again, this is not 283 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 2: high t but I want to talk about how you 284 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 2: can tell a body has been moved? 285 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 1: What about it? Jarrett Farantino, Well, Nancy. 286 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 5: I've had some experience in this regard, and there re 287 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 5: tire tracks leading up to the dumb site. That is 288 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 5: typically something the fact that there was a Dollar General 289 00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 5: across the way. There may be camera footage there that 290 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 5: would show a vehicle quickly arriving and leaving across the street, 291 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 5: which would suggest that also the intended circumstances around the body, 292 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 5: if the body, if there wasn't any disturbed dirt beyond 293 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 5: the limited area where a body could be dumped. If 294 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 5: you remember during the Murdoch trial, there was a lot 295 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 5: of talk about the attendant area and the zone of 296 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 5: where the bodies were found, of what may have been happening. 297 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 5: If you don't see a lot of disturbed area, it 298 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 5: could be a dump and leave site. So those are 299 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 5: the kind of things. Again we're speculating, but that would 300 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 5: be present and allow for them to make that confusion. 301 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 5: You know. 302 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 2: Another interesting thing to doctor John Delatore, psychologist and mediator. 303 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 2: I've noticed in a lot of murder cases that the 304 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,719 Speaker 2: perp will lay out the victims, stage them in a 305 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 2: certain way, like maybe put a blanket over their body 306 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 2: or a covering over their face. In the woods. I've 307 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 2: seen killers put leaves and branches over the body or 308 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 2: close the eyes of the victim, which indicates a certain 309 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 2: degree of staging. Plus, we were hearing doctor Manisha Pandi 310 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 2: describe the bludgeoning. If there's not a lot of blood 311 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 2: from the head wound right there, that would indicate, as 312 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 2: Jackie pointed out, that the body had been moved, or 313 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 2: maybe the clothes were disheveled, like the person had been 314 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 2: dragged out of a car. So you've got the shirt 315 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 2: not taken off, but or the pants pulled upwards or 316 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,479 Speaker 2: downwards in some fashion or to the side. I mean, 317 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,159 Speaker 2: you can look at the positioning of the body and 318 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 2: what's around it. But what do you make, doctor Delatory, 319 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 2: of people that, for instance, cover up the face or 320 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 2: close the eyes of the murder victim. 321 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 7: Well, here's the thing is that I'm going to call 322 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 7: it a compulsive type behavior, but other sort of serial 323 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 7: killer aspects they call it ritual. The idea is that 324 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:06,400 Speaker 7: there's something about how this body has now expired, right, 325 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 7: that the killer did something, and now they need to 326 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 7: do something in its place in order for the acts 327 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 7: to feel complete. Sometimes that might mean that they're burying 328 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 7: the body now. People aren't going to spend the time 329 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 7: to dig six feet down, but they can colorate up. 330 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 7: So this sent the shame or field that is associated 331 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 7: with having to have engaged in this behavior. So it's 332 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 7: all relative to what the killer's motivation was, and let's 333 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 7: about what the victim needed. 334 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,959 Speaker 2: Guys, I want you to take a listen to our 335 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 2: friend Paulina Aguilar at Fox twelve. 336 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 11: I'm on South fifth Street, just off I five, off 337 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 11: of Pioneer Street, and right behind me is an abandoned barn. Now, 338 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 11: I want you to know detekers don't think she was 339 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 11: killed here. Police say this is where someone dumped her body. 340 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 11: You can see it's closed off with private property signs 341 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 11: and an abandoned home just a few yards away. But 342 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 11: the barn is near where Clark County sheriff Office say 343 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 11: the body was found.

Ridgefield, Washington. This is what I know 359 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 2: that the population was is around ten thousand, a little 360 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 2: more than ten thousand, so it's a small population which 361 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 2: reduces the number of potential suspects. 362 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,439 Speaker 1: And Nette Neil, what more can you tell me? 363 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 4: It is a small kind of a bedroom community for 364 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 4: both the city of Vancouver, Washington and also Portland, Oregon, 365 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 4: which is the major metro area around it. It's very small. 366 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 4: It's country. There's a lot of farm areas around there. 367 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 4: It's also there's Wayne country, you know, it's basically a 368 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 4: very rural area. 369 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 2: Well, this is how I first became acquainted with Ridgefield. Ridgefield, 370 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 2: Oregon was part of the trail of Lewis and Clark. Yeah, 371 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 2: and when my children I had to learn about Lewis 372 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 2: and Clark. We study this and we actually retraced part 373 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 2: of the steps, you know. 374 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:05,439 Speaker 1: I'm Lewis and Clark. 375 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 2: Wow, all the way to Missouri and the Great Confluence 376 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 2: where they went with their guide, the female Guide. We 377 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 2: know that there's a huge wildlife refuge there, the Ridgefield 378 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 2: National Wildlife Refuge, And I was researching it for today 379 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: and I found out the creator the U Haul is 380 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 2: from Isfield. So long story short, it's a small town, 381 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 2: which my point is a brand that greatly reduces the 382 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 2: number of suspects. 383 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 5: That's correct, Nancy.

I talk about it to help other crime victims, 418 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 2: but even now, just talking about it, I feel it 419 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 2: in my stomach when I learned over the phone my 420 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 2: fiance had been murdered shortly before our wedding. 421 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 9: And it. 422 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 2: Even now it feels that Robin's speakes like it happened yesterday. 423 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,439 Speaker 14: Well, I honestly don't even know I was.

And just hearing about it while 429 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 14: at work and having to keep a cool composure and 430 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,239 Speaker 14: handle a lunch that I couldn't really get out of 431 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 14: it was very, very difficult.

So it was just 438 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 6: I was in disbelief. And it's really hard to describe 439 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 6: that feeling, I'm sure, as you know, Nancy. So it's 440 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 6: just something that. 441 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 2: I'll never forget, you know, I'm hearing Robin speaks and 442 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 2: Eryl Hanby described learning when their sister was murdered to 443 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 2: doctor John Delatory, licensed psychologist specializing in forensic psychology, did 444 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 2: you notice that both of these young ladies, these two sisters, 445 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 2: at first thought it was a joke. 446 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 1: Now, I'm not a shrink like you, just a j d. 447 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 2: But I think that's because you want to believe it's 448 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 2: a joe, a horrible joke, a bad joke. You mine 449 00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 2: can't take in what's happening because I remember, for a 450 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 2: long time after Keith was murdered, I would get my 451 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 2: mom or my dad and I look at him and say, 452 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:11,919 Speaker 2: is Keith dead?
