Less start at the beginning. How 26 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 1: long have you been with doctor? I think I'm saying 27 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: it correctly Burchard or Burchard Burchard. Some of his family 28 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: on the East Coast pronounced it Birchard, but here he 29 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: pronounced it Burchard. We've been together about seventeen years. Wow, 30 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: that is a success story in America to be with 31 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: someone for seventeen years. How would you describe the doctor's personality? 32 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: He was outgoing, He loved his practice, He loved you know, 33 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: his patience, you know, doing everything for them. Magic was 34 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: his hobby and he learned that mainly to do magic 35 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: tricks to kind of engage the children. Because he was 36 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: a child psychiatrist, so were his clients. His patients mostly children. 37 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: Originally they were children. Now nowadays it was a little 38 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: bit more on the adult side. He had started seeing 39 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 1: them as children and through you know, and continued following 40 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: them and into their adulthood. That was rather one of 41 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: when he turned sixty five, he was seventy one, and 42 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: when he had turned sixty five, he was concerned, you know, 43 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: worried about his patients that if he retired they would 44 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: be left with no one or having to start over 45 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: with a new new doctor. And so his idea of 46 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: retirement was to cut his work week down to four 47 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: days and take Mondays off.

And early Sunday morning that same day, I 121 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: woke up very early, about five or so in the morning, 122 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: just thirty five, just feeling something was really wrong, you know, 123 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: just kind of scared, more and more scared than anything. 124 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: And then those texts in the afternoon, you know, really 125 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: really raised some flags, and I was worried. I didn't 126 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 1: hear from him at all, and I checked and I 127 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: kept checking, and he had not checked in for his flight. 128 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: So I was very worried. And then Monday, I still 129 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: hadn't hurt from him, and his flight was doing I 130 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: think around one forty and so I decided to go 131 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 1: to the airport to meet the plane. He had his card, 132 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: you know, in the long term parking lot there. But 133 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: I still I went with my son to meet the plane. 134 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: I just felt something was wrong and I needed to, 135 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 1: you know, check, and I watched every single person come 136 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: off the plane and it wasn't him. And by this time, 137 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 1: I'm very, very concerned and I speak with the gay agent, 138 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: and they checked and he had never checked in for 139 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: his flight and he wasn't on the flight. And then 140 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: I knew something was, you know, just horrible. So I meet. 141 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 1: I went to his office because I thought, well, you know, 142 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: if he lost his phone, at least he would He 143 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 1: worked at Trump Community Hospital for forty years, so he 144 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: had that number memorized. You know. Now you know, so 145 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: many numbers we don't even really remember because they're on 146 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: our contacts. But I knew he would call his office, 147 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: and so I went there and I asked, you know, 148 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: as you know, he called, I think he I just 149 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: you know, I told him, I think he might have 150 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: missed his flying or lost his phone. Did he call 151 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: here to you know, reschedule his patience or cancel or anything, 152 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: And they hadn't heard anything at all about it, And 153 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: so I left a message for his office manager to 154 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: call me and m By that time, I'm really scared, 155 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: because I mean, he's very he worked at the same 156 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: place for forty years. I mean, he's very conscientious of 157 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: his patience, and he wouldn't just leave them hanging for 158 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: no reason. And so I came home and I called 159 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: Las Vegas Police Department and filed a missing person's report 160 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: and requested the welfare truck.

To doctor Brian Russell, psychologists and host 172 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: of Fatal Veils on ID, Doctor Brian, what is that? 173 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: Do you think she would have been in shock at 174 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: that point, going to report him missing, having no idea 175 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: what's happening. Well, yeah, and I think that you meant 176 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: an excellent point when you said that. Many of the 177 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: people that we've talked to over the years have said 178 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: that there has been something subtle that they noticed before 179 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 1: they really knew for sure that something was wrong. And 180 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,079 Speaker 1: I think that's so important for people not to overlook 181 00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: because we have familiarity with people's syntax and the way 182 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: they use words, the order of words, the kind of 183 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: words she said, the vocaity little things that we don't 184 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: even notice that we know about people until it gets 185 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: different somehow. And I guess one way to put it, 186 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 1: doctor is, you don't know. You don't know what you know. 187 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: You're picking up all of these clues and all of 188 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,319 Speaker 1: these signals, but you don't you're not putting them together, 189 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: because really it just seems unreal. Judy R. Did he 190 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: explain to you why he was going to Vegas for 191 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: three days? Yes? He did, Yes, Yes, why Well, some 192 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: of it I don't really want to say, you know 193 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 1: and kill the trial and everything, but some of it 194 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: was business basically. And he also had told me that 195 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: Kelsey was such a compulsive liar that he needed to 196 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: check things out for himself. So let me understand. You 197 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: knew about Kelsey Turner, now a suspect in your long 198 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 1: time love's murder. What was she to him? Well, he 199 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: had he had helped a lot of women, a lot 200 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: of people. You know, men and women with you know, 201 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: they were down on their lock or you know, he 202 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: would help them to pay their rent or their car payments, 203 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: or get the medicine that they needed, you know, rather 204 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: than going through And I told him, you know, lots 205 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: of times he probably would be better off, you know, 206 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: going through a charity. But now he would directly help 207 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: them make sure that, you know, they got what they needed. 208 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: And she was a master manipulator. She can I tell 209 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: you something. You can't tell you something, Judy, You're absolutely right. 210 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: And I'm speaking anecdote. Like the suspect in this case, 211 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: Kelsey Turner, I think she may have been a stripper. 212 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: I know that she's a playboy quote mo model. But 213 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: let me just tell you an anecdote. We had a friend, 214 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: just the nicest guy, in a wonderful marriage, and he 215 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: was always a little chubby, and I certainly understand that, 216 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: but he had something, actually, he had some incident happened 217 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: and he lost a lot of weight and then it 218 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: was like the first time in his life he was sevelt. 219 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: He got the attention of a stripper. By the time 220 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: she finished with him, he was divorced from his wife, bankrupt, 221 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: lost his job, and his house. Okay, so yeah, I'm 222 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: not stereotyping because some of the best witnesses I've ever had, 223 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: and some of the most truthful ones, were strippers. Okay, 224 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: I've been in every strip club in Atlanta, and I'm 225 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: not proud of it. Let me tell you that looking 226 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: for witnesses, but I do know that anecdote and many 227 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: more like it. Now you're saying this woman is a 228 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: master manipulator. People don't get it. It's all about the 229 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: money for them. It's just about trying to get the money. Oh, 230 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: definitely it was and her mother. I personally believe her 231 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: and her mother worked as a team. Okay. You know 232 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: I try every day, Judy to try, and it is 233 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: really hard for me. I'm sure other mothers are much better. 234 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: But to set the very best example I can for 235 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 1: the twins every single day. And what you're telling me 236 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: is just possibly part of a family scheme is scary. 237 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: So you tried to talk him out of being so 238 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: generous to various people who were down on their luck, 239 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: but he didn't listen. Correct, It was it was just him, 240 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: you know, it was He'd always been that way, and 241 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: there was just nothing I could do to change him. 242 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: I realized early on that these two were different, that 243 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: they were way different, and not just it wasn't just 244 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 1: you know, help help for like a short time a 245 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: month or something. Um it, they manipulated, did she definitely did. 246 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: When did you learn that his body had been found 247 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 1: ten days after I had reported him missing? It was 248 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: that was such a scary time, in those ten days 249 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: of not knowing, not knowing should I you know, how 250 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: to how to do anything? You know, just that that 251 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: was scary. The scariest time, really, I think just the fear, 252 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 1: you know, is he coming home? And probably about by 253 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 1: the day before, about the eighth of the ninth day, 254 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: I began to to realize to myself that he probably 255 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: wasn't ever coming home, you know, even though I kept 256 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: hoping and hoping. And then when they called me, you 257 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: know and told me, which was right before it broke 258 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: on the news, it was it was just it was devastating, 259 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: even though I kind of thought I had prepared myself 260 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 1: to hear the worst news. You know, that's funny you 261 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 1: say that, Judy, because I can compare when my fiance 262 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: is murdered out of the blue to just recently losing 263 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: my dad who was in his eighties. I now know 264 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: you're never prepared. You think you're prepared, You're not with me, 265 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 1: is the long time love of doctor Thomas Burchard. The 266 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: suspect is twenty five year old Kelsey Turner, who's listed 267 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: as a public figure on Instagram, a model, an actress 268 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: with more than one hundred thousand followers. What is her 269 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: relationship with the victim? There is a relationship. I'm at 270 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 1: this point the investigation is extremely active and ongoing, so 271 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 1: I'm not going to get into any specifics regarding them. 272 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: A man who knew the doctor tells the NBC stage 273 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: in Monterey, Burchard was paying the rent on this home 274 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:08,120 Speaker 1: in California, where Turner, her kids, and her mom once lived, 275 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,360 Speaker 1: and was giving them cash and he were from two 276 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: to four thousand a week easily. He told me. He 277 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 1: met Kelsey on a website and met up with her, 278 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: and they talked, and they went and had dinner a 279 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: few times, he says. Eventually, Turner and her family were 280 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: evicted when Burchard stopped paying rent. She moved to Las Vegas, 281 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 1: and Burchard went to check on her. Now, Turners in jail, 282 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: accused of killing him. A Playboy model, a's twenty five 283 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: as now the prime suspect in the murder of a 284 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: seventy one year old psychiatrist found bludgeoned to death and 285 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 1: the trunk of a BMW and where else, Los Vegas. 286 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: The twenty five year old model, as you know, has 287 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: not been trined, she has not been found guilty yet, 288 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: and there is the presumption of innocence. But I'm looking 289 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 1: at her Facebook photos and let me tell you something 290 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 1: this woman is. I mean, I don't have really any 291 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: doubt in my mind that she's in the stripping business. 292 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:12,919 Speaker 1: I know she's a Playboy model, not casting aspersions. But 293 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: why would a nice guy like doctor Thomas Burchard have 294 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 1: anything to do and get all tangled up with a 295 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: stripper giving her two to four thousand dollars a week 296 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: straight out? To John Limley, Crime online dot Com investigative 297 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: reporter John Limley, what more can you tell me about 298 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 1: the facts. Well, I can tell you a little bit 299 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: more about one of the suspects in this case when 300 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: we've been discussing already, and that's Kelsey Turner. She was 301 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: a model who had posed for Playboy in May of 302 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, She also, in April twenty seventeen, appeared on 303 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 1: the cover of One ten magazine and then also on 304 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: the cover of Right a Man, Wright a Man. What 305 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: is one ten? I don't know when there's another magazine 306 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 1: I've never heard of? Conceded that she appeared on the cover. 307 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: Four Are you saying concede as I concede the election? 308 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 1: Or conceded like you think a little too much of yourself, vanity? Okay, 309 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: go ahead. And on her profile for the magazine, Turner 310 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: listed herself as being from Jonesboro, Arkansas. So in the beginning, 311 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 1: this is all investigators knew about her, except thanks to 312 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: Judy Earp, they realized there was a connection between the 313 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: doctor and Kelsey Turner. Well, I mean, at first I 314 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: thought that she may have been one of his patients, 315 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 1: but now I realized that he met her on line 316 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 1: to Kathleen Murphy, North Carolina family law and divorce attorney, 317 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: you know Kathleen Murphy. I don't understand. Maybe his interest 318 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: in her was benevolent, the way that his longtime love 319 00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: tells me j Judy Earp. But what I don't understand 320 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 1: is if it was not just benevolent trying to help her. 321 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 1: Why do guys and perfectly wonderful relationships. I mean, Judy 322 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: Earp is beautiful, she's loving, she's loyal, she's there for 323 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: him in other relationships. Why do men leave a good 324 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: thing and run out with a stripper? I would say that, 325 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 1: or okay, let me just say a playboy model, I 326 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: would say. And it's clear from hearing Judy that this 327 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: was a wonderful man and may have been experiencing some dementia. 328 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:39,439 Speaker 1: He was seventy one years old, he had a stellar career, 329 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 1: he was a giver, he was a good man. And 330 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: it could be Relaane, Cathlane, Kathleene. Please he's a man? Yeah, 331 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:56,679 Speaker 1: okay through that. Yeah, so, doctor Brian Russell, no offense 332 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: because you aren't, in fact a man. But what is 333 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: it with men? If a mel stripper came out to 334 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: me on the street and kissed me right on the mouth, 335 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: I'd probably slap in the face and keep going because 336 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 1: they don't have time to report him. Why demand Saul 337 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: for I mean, and then think hundreds of thousands of 338 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: dollars into the money pit? Why three hundred grand that 339 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: we know of he sunk into this woman? Why? Well, 340 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 1: first of all, I don't think there's any reason to 341 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 1: think in this case that there was some kind of 342 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: dementia going on. In fact, it sounds like this is 343 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 1: actually part of a pattern with this guy of getting 344 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 1: involved in women's lives, and it probably has to do 345 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,679 Speaker 1: with the way in which it made him feel to 346 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: do that important needed. What do you mean he had 347 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: a pattern? Well, his girlfriend said that he had gotten 348 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: involved in helping multiple people over the years in this 349 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: similar kind of Yeah, she said, people, people, not playboy bunnies. Okay, 350 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 1: people and playboy bunnies are two different things. Well, especially 351 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 1: one that I strongly suspected as a stripper. But I 352 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: can't prove that it was interesting because for at first 353 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: she said he had he had helped you know, quite 354 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,919 Speaker 1: a few women, and then then she went back and said, no, 355 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,719 Speaker 1: but people, men and women together. But my suspicion is 356 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: helping women did something for him that was different from 357 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: just helping people in general in terms of how it 358 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: made him feel. Wow, guys, I want to find out 359 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: more about the crime and about the discovery of his body. 360 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: I just don't get it, ladies, I don't get it. 361 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 1: Why does a man leave stray from a wonderful home 362 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: to go be with a woman that's just gonna suck 363 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: him dry like a personal ATM. Now, by all accounts, 364 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: this doctor or doctor Thomas Burchard, was a great guy. 365 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: They're a brilliant psychiatrist. I mean, to be a psychiatrist, 366 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 1: you've got to go to medical school like every other doctor. 367 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: Then you have to get an advanced degree in psychiatry. 368 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 1: So John Linley, before I can even go to doctor 369 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: Michelle d pretty medical examiner and author, I need to 370 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: know some more of the facts. Hit me sure. This 371 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: investigation underway finds that the car that the doctor's body 372 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 1: was found in had actually been purchased by Kelsey Turner 373 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 1: from a man in San Francisco. The car is believed 374 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 1: to have been in her possession, Turner's possession since the 375 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: prior November Please don't tell me Burchard paid for her BMW. 376 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,919 Speaker 1: If David Lynch rolled up in a new BMW, I 377 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 1: am telling you I would serve him with divorce papers 378 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: that instant. He'd better keep driving that beat up gmc 379 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: he detectives said that after a record's check, they then 380 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 1: spoke to Judy Earp, Burchard's longtime girlfriend, and earp is 381 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: the one that pointed police in the direction of Kelsey 382 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: Turner and her boyfriend, Greg Haggio, saying that she firmly 383 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: believed that the pair had murdered Bichard. Let me ask 384 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 1: you this. Doctor Bichard reportedly gave the suspect, and the 385 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: suspect is Kelsey Turner, three hundred thousand dollars maybe more. 386 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: But do you think he was the victim of a 387 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: money scam? It does sound like there was something of 388 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: foot when it came to getting as much money out 389 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 1: of the man as possible, because there was quite some 390 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 1: time a timeline where you can see communication between Kelsey 391 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 1: Turner and the doctor, and it all always comes down 392 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: to money and trying to get a little bit more 393 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 1: and a little bit more, not only things like cars 394 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: and apartments and what have you, but also just cold 395 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: hard cash. So did I hear you say she had 396 00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 1: a boyfriend? Yes, Greg Haggio, Gregg, who is he? He 397 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 1: is a fellow that we don't know a lot about. 398 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 1: We do know that they had been a long time, 399 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 1: they had had a long term relationship, and that they 400 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 1: lived together. Get it out, Wellmily, hold on, So you're 401 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 1: telling me why she's getting about a half a million 402 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 1: dollars from seventy one year old doctor Thomas Burshard, the psychiatrists. 403 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: She's living with, this other guy, Craig Hagio. Listen to 404 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 1: this our friend Christopher Silas at KSBW. Kelsey wasn't the 405 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 1: first person he had helped, unfortunately the last. A longtime girlfriend, 406 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 1: Judy Earp described for Sharan's habit of financially supporting women 407 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,400 Speaker 1: give him an ultimatum to say, hey, listen, this cannot continue, 408 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:49,719 Speaker 1: either them or me. That's kind of personal. And I 409 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: had told him that you can't you know this is 410 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: this isn't you know this is not going to end well, 411 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 1: Judy said. Bursharan paid money to about a half a 412 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: dozen women during their seventy your relationship, but none to 413 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: the magnitude of Kelsey Turner and her mother. How much 414 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: money altogether did she scam out of doctor Burchard and 415 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 1: her mother About three hundred thousand that I know about, 416 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: and possibly more, Judy set Aside from the money, he 417 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: also loaned them cars and paid the rent for a 418 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,199 Speaker 1: year on this Salina's home. But then Burchard suddenly stopped 419 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 1: making payments and they were evicted. Why did he break 420 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: the relationship off with her? I think he finally saw, 421 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 1: you know, what was going on. Turner moved to Vegas, 422 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 1: where she reportedly worked as a model. I don't know why. 423 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: I believe he was lured there. Judy said Burchard bought 424 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: the ticket to Vegas the same day he flew out, 425 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: not telling her why he left until after he already arrived. 426 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 1: He said he went to see a magic show and 427 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: to see Kelsey, and that he'll be home Monday. I 428 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: warned him on Saturday when he was there that, you know, 429 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: maybe you ought not wait till Monday to come home. 430 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,239 Speaker 1: Maybe I just come home on the next flight, take 431 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 1: a Southwest and I'll pick you up in San Jose, 432 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: you know. And I wish he had taken that advice. 433 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: Nearly a week after Burschard bought that plane ticket, he 434 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 1: was found bludgeoned to death and the trunk of a 435 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: car on an Avada Highway. Judy said this was the 436 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: second time Burchard went to Vegas in the last month. 437 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: In February, Judy and a friend went with Burchard for 438 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,719 Speaker 1: a medical conference. Judy says Turner reached out to him 439 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: then she had wanted to know who was with him, 440 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: and you know, all of this was he staying at 441 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 1: a hotel and who was with him and all that. 442 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: And his friend thinks that perhaps she had been planning 443 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: it then, but there was just too many people with 444 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: him that you know, would notice. Burchard met with Turner 445 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: despite Judy's warnings. I wasn't happy about it, you know. 446 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:51,719 Speaker 1: I told him repeatedly that these are not, you know, 447 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: the people, the kind of people you want to be 448 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: associating with. And Judy says while she believes Turner has 449 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,959 Speaker 1: something to do with Burchard's death, she also says she 450 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: couldn't do it alone. One person could not have put 451 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: a body in the trunk of a car and also 452 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 1: driving that car out into the desert. They had to 453 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: have a way to get out of there. Crime stories 454 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: with Nancy Grace, a playboy model age twenty five, as 455 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: now the prime suspect in the murder of a seventy 456 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: one year old psychiatrist found bludgeoned to death and the 457 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 1: trunk of a BMW and where else, Los Vegas? Well, 458 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: can you tell me about the fact that we know 459 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 1: two more warrants have been issued? John Limley Well. The 460 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: first warrant was to search a home where Kelsey Turner 461 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: lived in the Vada that Burchard had paid for Turner's 462 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: March rent. And in this home police find a towel 463 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 1: with the same design as a towel found in the 464 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: car with the doctor's body, and a door that appeared 465 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: to have been ripped away from the hidden hinges and 466 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: broken into. There was also blood on both halves of 467 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: the door. Inside the garage of that house, police reported 468 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 1: finding more blood, footwear, impressions, cleaning supplies, and evidence of 469 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: a major clean up. So this warrant is for her 470 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: home that she had. Did you say it was in Vegas? Yes, 471 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: and it was in her name. But I imagine he's 472 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: paying the is it a house note or rent? It 473 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: is rent? So she was renting a house right and 474 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: he had already paid for her March rent. There were 475 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: two search warrants. What was the second warrant that just 476 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: went down? There was a warrant of Turner's phone and 477 00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: found that she was usually in that Las Vegas home 478 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: but had left after the time that Bruschard died. Police 479 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: noted that they think Bruschard died between March third and sixth. 480 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: Turner's phone mostly pinned in the area of her home 481 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 1: between March first and fifth, and then on the fifth 482 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: Kelsey Turner appears to be away from the home. Then 483 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: around five twenty pm March seventh, the phone shuts down 484 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: and was never turned on again. Now, so those are 485 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: the two most recent warrants. Now, let me ask you 486 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: one more thing. Do you believe Kelsey acted alone? From 487 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 1: what detectives and investigators have allowed us to know in 488 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: this case, it appears that the boyfriend played at least 489 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: some role in all of this. Has he been arrested? 490 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 1: But no, he has not. Well, then we better we 491 00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 1: better walk very very lightly on this. He has not 492 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: been arrested, he has not been charged. But there is 493 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: a theory, Kathleen Murphy, North Carolina divorce lawyer, that she 494 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 1: did not act alone. What's that theory? The theory is 495 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: that she could not lift that body by herself into 496 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: the chunk of the car and then drive it all 497 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: the way to the desert and then leave by herself 498 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 1: in any other vehicle the desert where the body was found, 499 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: and then what walked back to Doctor Michelle Dupre, medical 500 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: examiner and author of Homicide Investigation Field Guide. How long 501 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: could a person survive walking through the desert Fnancy. That's 502 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: a good question, and of course it depends on the 503 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: weather and the state of how that person was in initially. 504 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: But a person really cannot do without water for more 505 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: than three days. Food much longer, but not water. What 506 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 1: do you make of the fact, Doctor Michelle Dupree that 507 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: there were cleaning solutions in the home, the home belonging 508 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: to the suspect, Kelsey Turner cleaning solutions on you? What 509 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 1: do you have to do to break down DNA and 510 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 1: clean up a scene? Well, Nancy, as you know, people 511 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 1: can try to clean up scenes all they want, but 512 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,399 Speaker 1: there is always some evidence left. Yes, bleach can cover 513 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 1: up DNA. We can even paint a wall that has 514 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,479 Speaker 1: had blood stains on it, and with luminol or blue 515 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 1: Star we can still see the blood spatter on that wall. 516 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 1: So there's no way to completely clean up a crime 517 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 1: scene with any No matter how what cleaning solutions you 518 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: may have. You can see blood through paint. You can 519 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: with special light and with lumina. What if it's um, 520 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what kind of paint you use. UM 521 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 1: not really Again, what we see is the splatter pattern? 522 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 1: You know it's a spatter pattern. Um, if we can 523 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 1: take the DNA, but we can still see them the paint, brilliant, brilliant. 524 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 1: You just taught me something I didn't know about blood spatter. 525 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: So you can't get in there and get the DNA out, 526 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:58,720 Speaker 1: but you can still see the spatter underneath the paint. Brilliant, 527 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: Doctor Michelle dupre joining me. So doctor Brian in a nutshell, 528 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: does this appear to be premeditated? Yes? I think if yes, 529 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 1: it sounds to me like something that was thought out, 530 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: not necessarily thought out well, but thought out. And as 531 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 1: we often say, we remind everybody all the time, premeditation 532 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: can happen in seconds. Let me ask you this to 533 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 1: John Linley, what would indicate premeditation. Premeditation would show that 534 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: they would somehow, first of all, plan this out in 535 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: a reasonable amount of time, that there were plans of foot, 536 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 1: that things were in place to make sure that he 537 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: was no longer on the scene. And of course there's 538 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 1: also the incentive that they would gain possibly and I 539 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 1: say they, I should say Kelsey Turner because she's the 540 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,720 Speaker 1: only one arrested at this point, that they would benefit 541 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,879 Speaker 1: doesn't the mother live in the home with her, That's 542 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: what Judy Irp say. Yes, she does, well, she did 543 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: it once. So how can the home be covered in 544 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,800 Speaker 1: blood and the mom not know about the question. The 545 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: mom lived with her at some point, but at some 546 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,839 Speaker 1: point moved out and the boyfriend moved in. He let 547 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 1: me understand this to you, Kathleen Murphy, trial lawyer out 548 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:17,360 Speaker 1: of North Carolina. What says premeditation to you? Premeditation is 549 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:21,919 Speaker 1: any act or thought that can be shown that there 550 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 1: was a plan or an instant where the person knew 551 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,760 Speaker 1: what they were doing and intended to do it. And 552 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 1: just to make matters more complicated, listen to this our friend, 553 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 1: Christopher Silas at KSBW. We're learning the twenty five year 554 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 1: old accused of murdering doctor Thomas Burchard is pregnant.
