Jared Jones and Emily Wade share custody of 27 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: their seven year old daughter. As of this morning, they 28 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: hadn't told her yet that her mom is missing. It's 29 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: going to break her heart. We don't know what to 30 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: say to her, but we're gonna have to tell her something. 31 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: She's very intuitive and she knows something that's wrong, her 32 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: family says. Emily Wade's bank account hasn't been touched. That 33 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 1: her cell phone, one she only uses for text messaging, 34 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: hasn't been used either. They are baffled, and so are police, 35 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: and both are asking for the public's help to bring 36 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: Emily home. No, she's never done anything like this before. 37 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: That's what scares me. She would not do this her mother. 38 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: I know she wouldn't do it to me. She knows 39 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: that worry. She would not do this to me. She 40 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: would not do this to her daughter. No, nothing like this. 41 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: That's the mom of a beautiful young mom.

Emily Wade was gone ten days. 52 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: When her mother told us she feared the worst. I'm scared. 53 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: I'm scared of what this outcomes. Going to the sixteenth day, 54 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: she learned those fears were founded. Emily's family said it 55 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: was too tough to talk tonight. After a group of 56 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: searchers found a body they believed to be Emily's south 57 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: of town. And on this case, there was no tips, 58 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: no leaves. We just had no clue. We're eliminating places. 59 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: What we were doing. It was members of Tony Wade's 60 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: Cajun Coast Search and Rescue who were outlooking Monday morning, 61 00:03:55,560 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: the foliage, the trees extremely thick. We're a good part 62 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: of Ensign Road is washed out by Chambers Creek. Teams 63 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: searched by air here last week, but Monday on foot 64 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: they found her about five hundred feet down street, so 65 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: thick that we really couldn't get into where she was found. 66 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: It was really really thick. The creek is high, and 67 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: police confirm it also was on January fifth, when Emily disappeared. 68 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: She was driving, having left a friend's house at eight thirty. 69 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: It was dark, and these signs off Ensign Road may 70 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: have been her only warning about water if she could 71 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: see them. Still, we don't know for sure if she 72 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: drove through here. Her car hasn't been found, and the 73 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 1: medical examiner will share how she died. But in the meantime, 74 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: overlooking a winding, washed out road, even the experts at help, 75 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: but wonder, I think they need to put up some 76 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: more barricades or something is cold completely colo as the 77 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: access to it when it's when the water's gonna be 78 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: up like that, trying to avoid another tragedy. You were 79 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 1: hearing our frenzy ktr KTV talking to Tony Wade, Commander 80 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: of the Cajun Coast Search and Rescue with me now 81 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: Tony Wade, the commander of the Cajun Coast Search and Rescue, 82 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: along with Ashley Wilcot, juvenile judge lawyer.

John, maybe you need to recount that again 87 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 1: for me, because it doesn't make sense to me that 88 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: she's having Pezza in a movie with a coworker. She's 89 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 1: going a very short distance home to the apartment she 90 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: shares with her mom, who helps her take care of 91 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: her little girl, and she's not far away at all, 92 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: she knows the way, and then she ends up by accident, 93 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: drowned in a body of water outside of her car, 94 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: and nobody can find the car. You just better explain 95 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: it to me, John Lemley. Certainly it is a head 96 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: scratcher as to how all of this could have happened 97 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 1: in such a relatively short amount of time. As we've 98 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: been talking about over the past few days, Emily Wade 99 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: lived in an apartment with not only her seven year 100 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: old daughter, but also her mom as well, in Ennis, Texas, 101 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: about thirty five miles south of Dallas. Now, on the 102 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: first Saturday of the year, that's January fifth, Emily asked 103 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: her mom after she got home from work at Chili's restaurant, 104 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: if she could use her mom's car to go to 105 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: a male co worker's house. The two of them were 106 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: going to eat pizza and watch a movie. Now, the 107 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: last time her family saw her was late afternoon, as 108 00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: Emily left for that friend's house. Apparently she stayed there 109 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: well long enough to watch a movie and eat some 110 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: pizza a few hours, and according to the co worker, 111 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: she left his house around eight thirty, presumably heading for home. Okay, 112 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: so that's eight thirty. I don't know if it were 113 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: was I'm sure it had to have been dark by 114 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: that point. Let's go to the expert with me, Tony Way, 115 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: commander of the Cajun Coast Search and Rescue. Tony, it's 116 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: a real pleasure and honor to have you with us. 117 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: I don't understand, Tony, how she accidentally ended up outside 118 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: of her car dead in a body of water. And 119 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: the car hasn't shown up in all. Gustus. One of 120 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: the questions that we're asking, you know, do do what 121 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: do I think that is possible? Yes, I do. By 122 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: all I means so I'm looking at the area and everything. 123 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: I think it's possible. You know. But typically in history 124 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: when we found someone, uh that that drove off the 125 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: body of water or something, that they will file them 126 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: in the car, not outside of the car. Does raise 127 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: some questions for us. I mean, we were told last 128 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: night by a rumor that uh so, they had a 129 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: son ar hit on the car in the creek, um 130 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: but that has just to be confirmed. They haven't retrieved 131 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: the car yet. You know, looking at the area, I 132 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: can see where somebody is. It's really just out of 133 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: the way place dark, dark, really dark. I can see 134 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: sile somebody would at night drive off on the creek. 135 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: But as you know, at the same time, as it 136 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: raises a lot of questions to us, a lot of 137 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: things don't fit for me. It makes me wonder I'm 138 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: the same way I'm this. I'm scratching my head on 139 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: this deal. What doesn't fit for my first question with me, guys, 140 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,959 Speaker 1: Special guest Tony Way commander of the Cajun Co Search 141 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: and Rescue is was this spot all the way from 142 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: the co workers apartment to her home? Tony, No, No, 143 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: it wasn't. Uh, it's not far from the core work 144 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: this house. It's just it's a it's a different route, 145 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: a much longer route, but it's not far from the 146 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: co worker's house at all. Not far from the coworker's house. 147 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 1: But not on the route home. Now when you say 148 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: it was not when you say, Commander Wade, that it 149 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: was not on the route home. Was there a way? 150 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: Was it the long way home? Could she have gotten 151 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 1: home without turning back that way? Or was this like 152 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: totally I'm driving to California as opposed to Atlanta. That's 153 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: really not on the way? Okay, So could was this 154 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: a long way home? Well it was, you know, she 155 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: could have gotten home that way. It was it was 156 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: this that would have been an extremely long route. She 157 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: had to make a huge circle to get back home. 158 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: So that doesn't make sense. So this was not on 159 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: It doesn't not on it. It doesn't make sense to 160 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,319 Speaker 1: me at all. Now, okay, let me let me go 161 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: in the next thing, describe the area for me, commanderway 162 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: to please, It's it's a very rural area, un cornfields 163 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 1: of cotton fields. It's just kind of out of the way. 164 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: There's there's very limited lighting out there. It's just really 165 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 1: really dark. It's a gravel road. It's not even paved now. 166 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 1: It's just this little corner tuck out of the way, 167 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 1: you know, it just I don't know, I don't know. 168 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: Wish you would have been doing going that way. I 169 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: want to go to John Lonley, Crime online dot Com 170 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: investigative reporter, what details do you have well as far 171 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: as the weather goes, which would have led to this 172 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 1: swollen creek, This part of Texas has had much more 173 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: than its share of rain really, going all the way 174 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: back to last summer. On January fifth, the sunset around 175 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: five thirty, so by the time Emily left her co 176 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: worker's house, it had been dark for a few hours. 177 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: And as you're driving along Ensign Road, there are as 178 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: Tony has mentioned a couple of signs warning that the 179 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: low water crossing ahead is considered closed when there's high water. However, 180 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: one of those signs has fallen over, the other ones 181 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 1: difficult to read even in the best of conditions. There 182 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: are no street lights with all of this, and especially 183 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: if Emily was not concentrating on her driver driving, it's 184 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: easy to see how she could drive right into the 185 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 1: We disagree with you, John Limley, because if what you're 186 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: saying is corrected, there were signs, warning signs she had 187 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: to go, Hey, this isn't the right way. I didn't 188 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: pass this on the way to his place. This is 189 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: not the way home to me. This doesn't make sense. Guys. 190 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: There are no video cameras. There are no cameras outside 191 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: that we know of the coworkers or her home to 192 00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: help us in the search. But regarding cameras, how valuable 193 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: they are. When do you want to spot an intruder 194 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: in your home?

You can ask John his blink 197 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: camera alerted him to burglars trying to break in while 198 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 1: he and his family or home, or Shannon her blink 199 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: camera coat a thief stealing packages.

Shirley Wade is 213 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: going on day ten of not hearing from her daughter, 214 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: Emily Wade. Emily's mother says the last time she saw 215 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 1: her daughter she was going to a co worker's d 216 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 1: pizza and to a movie. PLI say they have talked 217 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: with that coworker who says he saw Wade drive away 218 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: from his house around eight thirty That same night. Wade 219 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: was driving her mother's twenty twelve silver Niece on Ultima 220 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: with Kentucky license plates. You're hearing our friends at wk YTV. 221 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 1: That's Hillary Thornton and Emily's mom, Shirley Wade. Now, in 222 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: the last hours, we learned that the body of the 223 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: missing Texas mom, beautiful young mom, Emily Wade, discovered in 224 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: a creek bed. Was she swept into flooding walls? And 225 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: why can't they find her car? How did she get 226 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 1: out of her car? And this was not on the 227 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: way home from the coworkers to her home. A lot 228 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: of unanswered questions, and I'm not buying the accident theory, 229 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: not yet anyway, straight out to Joseph Scott, Morgan forensics 230 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: expert author Blood Beneath My Feet weigh in, Joe Scott, 231 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: because how do you get out of your car? That 232 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: doesn't seem right to me? Is to me? I got 233 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: to find out what the autopsy says. Yeah, I do too, Nancy. 234 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: I want to know what the mmy has to say 235 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: from the autopsy. And you know, one of the big 236 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: questions here, she's apparently I'm understanding, Tony, she's kind of 237 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: free floating in its body of water. I want to 238 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: know how she came to be outside of the vehicle 239 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: where the wind is down. Was she unbelted? Was this 240 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: does she have impact related right right right there. If 241 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: it's raining, I can guarantee if she didn't have her 242 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: windows down. Well, I agree, that's one of the things 243 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: that I'm wondering, and that's the big conundrum here. Also, 244 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: what was the weather like that night? Was it pouring 245 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: down rain? Was it missing? Well, she just trying to 246 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: get her head clear, you know, because when we initially 247 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: reported on this case, the idea was that was that 248 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: her house where she resided was literally just around the 249 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 1: corner from this other guy's place. Now, keep in mind, 250 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: she's from Kentucky. She's not a native of innist this 251 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: area right here, She's not going to be familiar with 252 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: these areas. Particularly hold on right there, right there, Joseph Scott, Morgan, 253 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: Ashley Willcott. How many more stupid women driver comments do 254 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: we have to hear? If she lived right around the corner, 255 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: why was she this far away going completely the wrong 256 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: way where there are signs going warning, warning, warning. You 257 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: don't think she figured that out? Yeah, so none of 258 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: this adds up, right, I think that's what we're all 259 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: thing is. It doesn't make good common sense going the 260 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: wrong way, ignoring warnings, and oh she got into floodwater deceased, 261 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: but we can't find the car. We don't know what happened. 262 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: But something doesn't smell right. I understanding it was not 263 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: raining at the time. Now the flooding was residual from 264 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: earlier rainfall. Is that right? Let me go out to 265 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: Commander Tony Wade joining us. What do you know about that, Commander, Well? 266 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: What I understand it had rained that day. I've never 267 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: been able to pinpoint if it was raining that night 268 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: or not. I do know that this creek is fed 269 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: from League Bardwell. League Bardwell has some dams on it, 270 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: and then when it wa a rises to a point 271 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: that they're considered worry about flooding, the open those dams 272 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: and it pours into a poison the creek and the 273 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: current is pretty strong. One of the other things that 274 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: I want to come in on, you know, there was 275 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: there was a reporting with the news that said that 276 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: she was the last seen on Clay Street, which is 277 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: right around the corner from her home, which is totally false. 278 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: The area that she was last seen in the co 279 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: worker's house is it's quite some distance from her home. 280 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: It's not close to home at all. Uh, it's just 281 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: several miles probably fifteen or twenty minutes away. You know. 282 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: We went down to the creek on Sunday, the Sunday 283 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: that we started, I was searching. We went down to 284 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,479 Speaker 1: the creek. We were able to cross the bridge. Uh. 285 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 1: They closed the dam so that they could search the area. 286 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: They opened the dam's back up. I think on Monday 287 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: you cannot cross there at all anymore. The current is 288 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: just is pouring through there. You know, the comments about 289 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 1: her being in the car, windows down or whatever. You 290 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 1: I just, for some reason, I'm just not buying that 291 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: history repeats itself. In my mind, we worked several cases 292 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: like this before, and the victims were always sound in 293 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: the car. Did she get in the water and drove 294 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: off into the water and try to get out of 295 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,679 Speaker 1: the car to swim the shore, I mean that's the possibility, 296 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: But I just I don't buy it. I don't buy 297 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: the whole scenario that that she drove off into that creek. 298 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 1: I just there's just something about it just not striking me. 299 00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: That's what happened me too, Commanderander of the Cajun Coast 300 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 1: Search and Rescue, Tony. There's just something about it. Maybe 301 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: I'm just conditioned from all the years of fighting crime 302 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 1: and investigations that I think there's a monster in every shadow. 303 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: But do you know how hard it is, commander, when 304 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: you go in the water in a vehicle to get 305 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: that window down and get out. That's hard. Yeah, I 306 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 1: totally understand. And why is it so hard, commander? Why 307 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: is it so hard? Well, you know, you have the 308 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: pressures of the water. It's going to be very hard 309 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 1: to open the door or window. The windows aren't going 310 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: to roll down with electric windows wants to cause some 311 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: merge to begin with. You know, the electric system is 312 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 1: going to short out, so the window aren't going to 313 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: rull down. She would have had to open the door. 314 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,919 Speaker 1: When a car is thinking like that and the pressure 315 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: from the water outside trying to get in, it's just 316 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: going to be next thing impossible to open the door. 317 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: You know, once the car it feels up with water, 318 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: then you can open the door. But I just I'm 319 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: not buying this store. I'm just not buying it at all. 320 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: So at the electric winds they shored out the minute 321 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: the water because the car goes in the water. Yeah, 322 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: whole electrical system was going to show it out and 323 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: shut down. Say, she'd have to be you know, superhuman 324 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 1: to get out once that car went in the water. 325 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 1: I'm scared to death. I'll be honest with you. I'm 326 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: scared to death. Is what's wrong. I just don't know 327 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 1: what's wrong. I don't know where she is. She's been 328 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 1: gone now for four days, and it's killing me. I 329 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: love her so much and I just want her to 330 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: come home. This is not the outcome anyone was hoping for. 331 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: According to a search volunteer, the body, believed to be 332 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: that of thirty eight year old Emily Wade was found 333 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 1: not far from the home of a co worker she 334 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: was visiting the night that she went missing. Now, Wade disappeared, 335 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, on January fifth. According to her mother, 336 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: a Wade told her that she was going to a 337 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: co worker's house that night to have dinner and watch 338 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: a movie. She never made it back home. Now, Wade's 339 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: mother told me that co worker said Wade left the 340 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: house a few hours later, and detectives say that co 341 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: worker has been cooperative since the very beginning of this 342 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: missing person's investigation. Now, according to Ennis Police, search volunteers 343 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: found a woman's body matching Wade's description late Monday morning 344 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: in a creek bed known to have flooded that night. 345 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 1: The floodwaters in that area are still flowing very quickly. 346 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: The low water crossing there is still impassable. Now. Investigators 347 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: are still waiting on the medical examiner in Dallas County 348 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: to determine the cause of death as well as ide 349 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: this body to see if it is in fact that 350 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: of Emily Wade. From there they can determine if this 351 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: was an accident or something more. Now I can tell 352 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 1: you that Wade has an eight year old daughter who 353 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 1: has been staying with her father, a Wade's ex boyfriend 354 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: here in the Ennis area. So still a lot of 355 00:20:49,080 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: unanswered questions tonight, Hi, Nancy Grace here, have you ever 356 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 1: Googled yourself, your neighbors, somebody at work, a crush?

Her family is worried. We spoke with the 373 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: father of Emily's seven year old daughter, who describes her 374 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: as a happy person and especially close with her mother 375 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 1: and her young girl. Our daughter is she's hanging in there. 376 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: She stands strong. She's god such a tough low cookie, 377 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: and I'm sad. I think she's staying strong for man 378 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: man or Granny. Right. We just I know she's hurting, 379 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: and we just we just want her mom that Emily 380 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: recently moved to Hear from Kentucky. She was last seen 381 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: driving a two thousand of Nissan Ultima with Kentucky license plates. 382 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: I'm not buying the whole accident theory yet. In the 383 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 1: last hours the body of Emily Wade has been found 384 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: in a body of water, not in her car, and 385 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: a car hasn't even been found yet. Straight out to 386 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: forensics expert, author of Blood Beneath My Feet, Joseph Scott Morgan, 387 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: Joe Scott, there's so many reasons that the autopsy is 388 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: so important. Ho hold on to Tony Wade, commander of 389 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: the Cajun Coast Search and Rescue. You saw her body. 390 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 1: Was there any visible injury? Commander Wade. I didn't get 391 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: down there to look at the body closely, but from 392 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: what from what we can see and what were and 393 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 1: also we were told that she was in pristine shape. 394 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: Was really really looked really well too, Joseph Scott Morgan. Again, 395 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: I wanted to get that fact before you're in your consideration, 396 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: Joe Scott. The autopsy is critical. It's going to tell 397 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: us so much on so many different levels. What all 398 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: will they be looking for to determine cause of death 399 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: as possible as salt and will water? Yeah, I tell you, 400 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: I appreciate what Tony was saying. There's nothing like having 401 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: eyes on it the scene, But many times, particularly at night, 402 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: it is hard to appreciate everything that's out there so 403 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: they're going to look completely externally at her to see 404 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: if there's any kind of trauma whatsoever in those bright 405 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: lights of the morgue. But what is critical here, Nancy, 406 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: and you kind of alluded to it. What's the water? 407 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: Does she have anything in her lungs that gives us 408 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 1: an indication that she may have essentially taken water on 409 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: that issues attempting to breathe, she submerged, she drowns. So 410 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: one of the things that we look for in cases 411 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 1: like this is to see the weight of the lungs 412 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: and also the presence of lungs or the presence of 413 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 1: water and the lungs, and also something else. It's interesting 414 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 1: we look for water in the inner ear in cases 415 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,679 Speaker 1: of drowning as well. So that's going to be telltale, 416 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: and we won't know anything more until these autopsy results 417 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: are released. It just ripture hard out. I'm having a 418 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 1: hard time. I just every day gets harder. A mother's 419 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: heart is breaking. I'm scared I'll never see her again. 420 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,880 Speaker 1: A lot. Shirley Wade living with her thirty eight year 421 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 1: old daughter, Emily Wade, in Ennis, an hour south of Dallas, 422 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: when her daughter disappeared. Emily a waitress at Chili's reportedly 423 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 1: went to a coworkers for pizza in a movie. She 424 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: hasn't been seen since. Emily was last seen wearing a 425 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: peach colored sweater. Police say she was driving a silver 426 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: twenty twelve Nissan Altima with Kentucky plates. If anybody has 427 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: seen Emily seen that Nissan anywhere, please we're asking you 428 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: to contact the department. You are hearing from our friend 429 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 1: Carrie Sanders, NBC News. I'm just not buying it. Something 430 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: is off to Ashley Wilcott judge Anne Lawyer at Ashley 431 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: Wilcott dot com. Ashley just doesn't seem right to me. 432 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 1: And I'm hoping against hope that being submerged in water 433 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: did not destroy forensic evidence on her person. Well, I'm 434 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: afraid that it will. I mean, that's just the reality, right. 435 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 1: Once you are submerged in water, that's going to remove 436 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 1: some of it. But it doesn't mean there won't be 437 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,719 Speaker 1: forensic evidence. The other thing, Nancy is, I'm just hopeful 438 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: and prayerful, and it sounds like they are that law 439 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: enforcement looks at the totality of the circumstances and starts 440 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: wide open and then narrows down. She might have been 441 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: submerged in a car. She could have been kidnapped, killed 442 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,199 Speaker 1: and dumped in the creek. We don't know what happened, 443 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: and so they have to start broad with every single 444 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: scenario and narrow down as they get any evidence from 445 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: her body. Back to our commander joining us, Tony Way, 446 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 1: Command of the Cajun Coast Search and Rescue. What about it, 447 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: Commander Way? What is it that doesn't sit right with you? 448 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 1: We probably were a thousand or so cases a year 449 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 1: of missing persons, and we have found people that have 450 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: driven off in water and things like that, and they 451 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,199 Speaker 1: will always inside the car. The relation to where she was. 452 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 1: So the co workers home there was up a big 453 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: flag for me. Her being outside of the car. There 454 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: was a big flag up to me, just hard in 455 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: that area along. It just doesn't sit right, It doesn't. 456 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: It doesn't seem everything about Emily. Uh. You know, we 457 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: try we always try to touch a five a pattern 458 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,920 Speaker 1: together of a person's life, how they act, what they do, 459 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: and all these things. And it's just this outside of 460 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,479 Speaker 1: the pattern that we came over with Emily. I just 461 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: don't place her in that area on her own. I 462 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: don't place her getting her being out of the car 463 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: once it was submerged. Just there's too many things about 464 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: it that just doesn't fit the typical the typical situation. 465 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 1: It's just it's just everything comes on the outside of it. 466 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 1: I don't I don't agree with it at all because 467 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 1: I've been thinking for the longest time I carried in 468 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: my minivan and somehow it's gotten lost. It looked like 469 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: a mini hammer and it's used for if you go 470 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: off a bridge, because if you have a minivan like mine, 471 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: it's a Toyota Sienna. If you have one like that, 472 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: there aren't roll up window as an alternative, which I 473 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: think that cars with electrical windows should also have a 474 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,199 Speaker 1: roll up as well, but they don't. So if that 475 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: car went into the water, as you were describing, Commander 476 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: Tony Wade, it would short out the electrical system and 477 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 1: you'd have to break the window from inside, and that's 478 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: really hard to do with the pressure of the water 479 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,439 Speaker 1: coming in on the outside. She'd have to have something 480 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,640 Speaker 1: with which to break it. I'm just thinking about her 481 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: and that car that she had. John Linley, correct me 482 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: if I'm wrong, was a model that would have had 483 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: electric windows, so correct, How in the heck, what kind 484 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: of car was it? John twenty twelve Nissan Ultima. Yeah, 485 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 1: so I don't understand how her going into water, what 486 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 1: she had time to think, Oh no, I'm going into water. 487 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: Let me let the window down. I don't think that's 488 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: how that played out, Commander Wade. I don't either. I don't. 489 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: I don't buy that at all. It's just a doesn't 490 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: fit to Joseph Scott, Morgan forensics expert, author of Blood 491 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: Beneath My Feet. Joe Scott, when you're looking at a 492 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 1: case like this, you compare it, You compare it to 493 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: all the other cases you've ever handled, ever read about, investigated. 494 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: And that's where Wade, Commander Wade's coming from. Something's off. 495 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe she's gonna it's surprised as we're 496 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: gonna find out that she's like Hercules, and she managed 497 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: to get out of the car. But that body, the 498 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: body is going to tell me so much because that 499 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: electrical system shorted out the minute of that car got 500 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: in the water. Right, So how did she get out? 501 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: Where is the car? Why is she separate from the car, 502 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: Why isn't she strapped into the car, Why isn't she 503 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: in there unstrapped with the windows up. But the body, yes, 504 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: as she will comes right, superficial evidence will be washed 505 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: away by the water. But why she clothed or her 506 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: clothes on correctly, or has she been a redressed post boredom? 507 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: Water will not get rid of DNA inside your body. 508 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: I don't think as if if she had been sex assaulted, 509 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: Joe Scott Morgan, what about scratches things like that. Yeah, 510 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: there's any number of physical findings that would be And 511 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: also let's keep in mind that she sustained any kind 512 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: of like blunt force injuries or any kind of marks 513 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,479 Speaker 1: around her neck. That's not going to be eradicated as 514 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: a result of the water either. So you're going to 515 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: have to look at all of this in the totality. Now, 516 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: the you know, the number one generator of blunt force 517 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 1: trauma it related to deaths in the United States are 518 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: in fact motor vehicle accident. So for the medical examiner, 519 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: they're going to have to be able to delineate or 520 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: these consistent would say, for instance, a car accident, or 521 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: was she assaulted in some way right there? Right there, 522 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: there's a problem, Commander Tony Wade, if she had a 523 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: crash and hit her head. She sure's heck, wouldn't have 524 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: been able to get out of that car if she 525 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: had a head injury. That that's correct, you know, and 526 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 1: surveying the scene, looking at the scene, there's there's no 527 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: signs where they would have been a vehicle accident. You know, 528 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: none of the trees have marks on it where she 529 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: would hit a tree or any that kind of stuff 530 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: that did. Area is just clean. There's no indication of 531 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: a traphic guise something. Here's w k yttvs. Hillary Thornton 532 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: talking with Emily's brother. The thirty eight year old moved 533 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: to Texas a couple of years ago from Cynthiana. However, 534 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: came back to Kentucky several months ago to help her 535 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: mother recover from surgery. Once she was better, they both 536 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: moved back down to Texas just three weeks ago. They 537 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 1: made that move to be with Emily's seven year old 538 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: daughterly department and somebody will come over and knocked on 539 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: a dollar. She said that, mommy, you know, can imagine 540 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: what you're going through. My mom having a real time 541 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: with their thoughts. I ain't our daughter is missing and 542 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 1: she down here with only family or she got his 543 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: men right now down here. Emily's brother Chad, who still 544 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 1: lives here in Kentucky, is now down in Texas helping 545 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: with search efforts were in nothing has really panned out. 546 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: Emily Wade was gone ten days when her mother told 547 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: us she feared the worst. I'm scared. I'm scared of 548 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: what this outcome is going to be. The sixteenth day, 549 00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: she learned those fears were founded. Emily's family said it 550 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: was too tough to talk tonight. After a group of 551 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: searchers found a body they believed to be Emily's south 552 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: of town. And in this case they have no tips, 553 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: no leaves. We just had no clue. We're eliminating places. 554 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: What we were doing. It was members of Tony Wade's 555 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: Cajun Coast Search and Rescue who were outlooking Monday morning. 556 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: The foliage, the trees extremely thick. We're a good part 557 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: of Ensign Road is washed out by Chambers Creek. Teams 558 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: searched by air here last week, but Monday on foot 559 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 1: they found her about five hundred feet down street. The 560 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: salt thick. We really couldn't get into where she was found, 561 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 1: which was really really thick. The creek is high and 562 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: police confirm it also was on January fifth, when Emily disappeared. 563 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: She was driving, having left a friend's house at eight thirty. 564 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 1: It was dark, and these signs off ensign road may 565 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: have been her only warning about water if she could 566 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: see them. Still, we don't know for sure if she 567 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 1: drove through here. Her car hasn't been found, and the 568 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 1: medical examiner will share how she died. But in the meantime, 569 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 1: overlooking a finding washed out road even the experts had 570 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: help with wonder. I think they need to put up 571 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: some more barricades or something is cold completely closed the 572 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 1: access to it. When it's when when the water's gonna 573 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 1: be up like that? Trying to avoid another tragedy. You're 574 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 1: hearing our friends at ktr KTV and the commander of 575 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: the Cajun Coast Search and Rescue, Tony Wade. Tony, I 576 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: got a question about that terrain. You were talking about 577 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 1: how thick and dance the foliage is. Could her car 578 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: have gotten through there? Well, you know there's a crossing 579 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: there and they call it the low water crossing, a 580 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: very low bridge. You got to go down a steep 581 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: hill to cross the little bridge, and the back up 582 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: when and what's up Like that said, the bridge is underwater, 583 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 1: so you know she could have driven down the roads 584 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: and not see it at night and trying to attempt 585 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: to cross it. The signs that they have up sand 586 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: of the bridge closed looks like some this is small. 587 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 1: It's like hand teented signs that are hanging on the 588 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: side of the road, so you know, yeah, you can 589 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 1: mist those signs. I just I finally believe that the 590 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: county used to put up some barricades. It's when the 591 00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 1: when the water's high like that, you know, being dark 592 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: like an isn't an area and not familiar with the area, 593 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: you know, I see it possible that she could have 594 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: driven off of it. I think it's highly unlikely, But 595 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 1: I'm de posible. Why do you think it's unlikely that 596 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 1: she went her off? Why do you think it's unlikely 597 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: that she went off of it? Just everything doesn't okay, 598 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: the whole picture that is being paint about there doesn't. 599 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: It doesn't fit her being outside of the car, the 600 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: car not being right there, Tony. That bridge did it 601 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 1: have rails on either side? No, there's no rails on it, 602 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,879 Speaker 1: none of whatsoever. How why is it you can only 603 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:28,760 Speaker 1: cross one vehicle at the time when the bridge, it's 604 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 1: not it's not that why it's a very narrow bridge. 605 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: But that was not on her way home. No, it wasn't. 606 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:36,800 Speaker 1: It's not at all on the way home. She should 607 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: went the other way. That's one of the other things 608 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: that throws up a flag for me. Why why she 609 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: would be in that area. It just you know, it 610 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: doesn't doesn't fit. Another thing I heard John Linley Crime 611 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 1: online dot Com investigated reporters that she had lived in 612 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 1: Texas for many years, then she went to Kentucky. Then 613 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 1: they moved back to Texas. So she was not a 614 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: stranger to the area, No, not at all. In fact, 615 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 1: as we heard in that earlier news report, she had 616 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:03,760 Speaker 1: moved back and forth from Harrison County, Kentucky, to Innis 617 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 1: County a number of times. Her mom had surgery at 618 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 1: one point, some back surgery. She needs some help, so 619 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 1: she moved back with her. She went back to Kentucky, 620 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: and then it was just a little over a month 621 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: before her disappearance that Emily had moved back with her daughter, 622 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: her seven year old daughter into that apartment with her mom. 623 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, how have they managed to 624 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 1: clear the X and the ex husband seemingly on pretty 625 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: good terms. And the coworker, the mail coworker. How did 626 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 1: they clear them, John Limley? At this point they haven't 627 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 1: ruled anyone out. However, they have said that they are 628 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 1: not considered persons of interest. Now this was before Monday's discovery. 629 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: We've yet to hear from investigators as to whether that 630 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,360 Speaker 1: status has changed. Yeah, what about that Joe Scott Morgan? 631 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,800 Speaker 1: They were her name. I thought they had been cleared, 632 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: But Limley is correcting me. I think he may be right. 633 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 1: They were just not named suspects, but they seemed to 634 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: me to be confident they weren't involved. How would they 635 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 1: have done that? Well, you know, we can piece together 636 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: things like timeline, Nancy, we can also talk about alibis 637 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 1: relative to this, so they could in fact clear from 638 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 1: an investigative standpoint. From this perspective, But listen, Nancy, in 639 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 1: a case like this, nothing is outside of the realm 640 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: of consideration. Remember our working premises always every death is 641 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: a homicide until proven otherwise, and that's what we work on. 642 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: John Lemley, how are cops investigating the chilies where she worked? 643 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: That was my first concern. First, you look at the 644 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 1: husband or the ex or the boyfriend. Then you go 645 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 1: to co workers and you go to neighbors. But where 646 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: she worked, she was constantly exposed to all sorts of 647 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 1: potential predators. How have they or can they investigate people 648 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: in and out of Chilies, specifically the last day she worked. 649 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 1: Investigators have not released details about that. However, we know 650 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 1: as part of their investigation, not only have they been 651 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: interviewing this coworker, but they have visited the Chili's restaurant 652 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: at least talked with staff, and through that we surmised 653 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:21,279 Speaker 1: they have most likely asked staff of any well, for 654 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: lack of a better phrase, suspicious characters that might have 655 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,240 Speaker 1: come in. Well, that's not that odd. Just got Morgan, 656 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 1: you're the forensics expert. When you have one guy that 657 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 1: comes in by himself and sits at the same spot 658 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: and always ask for the same waitress, that's something that 659 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 1: the others notice. Joe Scott, Oh, yeah, you're absolutely right, 660 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: because these are You know, if the person is a regular, 661 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,359 Speaker 1: it's no big thing. But if they come in and say, 662 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: for instance, and they focus on that one person constantly, constantly, constantly, 663 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: maybe they even show up and say, hey, is she working? 664 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 1: Tonight and then they turn around and leave. It's these 665 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 1: behavior patterns that we look at from an investigative standpoint 666 00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 1: to try to piece these things together to try to 667 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: eliminate these suspects, to either include or exclude them.
