1 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: A young Texas mom realizes she's late for work, grabs 2 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:13,840 Speaker 1: her bag and races out the door, and then disappears. 3 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,599 Speaker 1: A Nancy Grace. This is Crime Stories. Thank you for 4 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,759 Speaker 1: being with us here at Fox Nation and Serious X 5 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: one eleven. What happened to Chrissie? She takes off, leaving 6 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 1: behind her mom who helps take care of her child, 7 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 1: headed to her job as a paralegal, all dressed for work, 8 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 1: and then seemingly vanishes into thin air. You can even 9 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: see the ring doorbell cam. You see Chrissy rushing out 10 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 1: with her back slung over one shoulder, all of her 11 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: work with her. But then what happens The young paralegal 12 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: and mother of two not even checking on her children. 13 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: Then her mom realizes Chrissy didn't take her phone and 14 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 1: she left behind her medication. For three weeks, family and 15 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: friends desperately search for answers. How did this whole thing start? 16 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: First of all, take a listen to this unknown are 17 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 1: just the scariest part. So many scenarios are playing out 18 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: in the mind of Lauren Leat. And she's not just 19 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 1: a friend, she's a sister. Her friend Chrissie Powell, whom 20 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: she's known all her life is missing. Leale is speaking 21 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: on behalf of the family. It's just been really hard 22 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 1: to kind of wrap her minds around where she might be, 23 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 1: what could have happened. Lea says, this is not in 24 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: her friend's character to just vanish, calling this disappearance bizarre. 25 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: Police and the family, have you even checked the jail 26 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: and hospitals? We just want you home. You were just 27 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: hearing our friends at Kae and S five and the 28 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: very best friends speaking out, and there's more.

I 30 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: actually have the next door app and I reached out 31 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 1: to her mother personally because she did post a thread 32 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: on there about her daughter, Chrissie Powell, and this is 33 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: from her mother. She let me know. Her name is 34 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: Christina Powell. She left my house in Apple Creek ten 35 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: thirty ish Tuesday July fifth, heading to work driving a 36 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: black Nissan Rogue. Her office is around Eye ten and 37 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: Vance Jackson. She never showed up to work. Can you 38 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: imagine so desperate you're reaching out on Facebook, Insta, Twitter, 39 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: trying to get the word out about your missing girl. 40 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: You were hearing from the best friend, but the mother 41 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: desperate calls police. It takes them three days before they 42 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: report Chrissy missing. Why first of all, let's get to 43 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: the facts with me and All Star panel to make 44 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: sense of what we know right now. I'm going to 45 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,639 Speaker 1: straight out first to special guests. Joining me, Stephanie pagonus 46 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: crime reporter with Fox News Digital. Stephanie, thank you for 47 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 1: being with us, and start at the beginning. Thank you, Nancy. Yes, So, 48 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: as you just mentioned, Chrissie Lee Powell lived with her mother. 49 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: She woke up that morning she was running late. She 50 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: told her mother. She runs out the door at the time, 51 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: as you can see in doorbell footage. Her mother says 52 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: she said I love you and be careful before she left. 53 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: But her daughter left behind some of her belongings, namely, 54 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: according to family and reports, her cell phone, which she 55 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: left on her bathroom encounter. She also left behind medication, 56 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: and family later determined that they believed she left behind 57 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: her Apple Watch as well. They believe that because when 58 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: they went to go track down the watch later on 59 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: after her daughter had not come home, they determined it 60 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: was actually in the vicinity of the home. Hey, hellball, 61 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: just a second. Stephanie pegu joining me from Fox News 62 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: Digital special guest today, I want to go quickly to 63 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: doctor Angela Arnold, renowned psychiatrists joining us out of the 64 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: Atlanta jurisdiction. You can find her at angela Arnold MD 65 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: dot com. Doctor Angie quick question, have you ever been 66 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: on vacation? Okay? And you come back and just having us. 67 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: We took the twins on vacation. We came back our 68 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: race in the kitchen to make the twins of breakfast 69 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,799 Speaker 1: and from my mom and I turned to my husband, 70 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: did you feed the countin the dog? At He goes, Oh, 71 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: my goodness, I'm out of my routine. The point is 72 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: she had just come off the July fourth break she had, 73 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: you know, maybe Thursday night, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. This 74 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: is Tuesday morning, July sixth. She's like, oh, dear Lord 75 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: in Heaven, I'm late for work, very responsible, never late, 76 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: never misses work. That's important regarding behavioral evidence. She even 77 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: calls the job to say I'm on the way here, 78 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: I come, I'm late, I'm sorry, jumps into her Nissan rogue. 79 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: I believe it was a twenty twenty Stephanie, but got 80 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: to correct me on these facts. And I've got any 81 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: of them wrong and takes off and mom sees her 82 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: leave to go to work. Fifteen minute drive seven miles right. 83 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: I think she forgot her iPhone and her didn't put 84 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: on her Apple Watch because she was in a rush 85 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: and she was out of her routine a little bit 86 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: because of the break. What do you think? I agree 87 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 1: with you, but I'll tell you something, Nancy. One of 88 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 1: the first things that came to my mind was that 89 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: it also sounds like she could have been distracted something. 90 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: She could have been distracted. She could have had something 91 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: on her mind that none of us know about. Someone 92 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: could have contacted her. I don't know, but it sounds 93 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: to me like she also could have been distracted. Okay, well, 94 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: number one, is there anybody on this panel that's not distracted? 95 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: But I understand what you're saying. Something out of the ordinary. 96 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: But that leads me to another issue. Jason Campo, Chief 97 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: Prosecutor Cameron County, Texas, five years in the DA's office 98 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 1: regarding family violence. I mean, I could go on renowned 99 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: lawyer in that jurisdiction, Jason, A lot of I'm really upset. Now. 100 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: This is in San Antonio and it's in a really 101 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: low crime and neighborhood of San Antonio. I believe it's 102 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: Apple Circle or Apple Orchard, Apple Apple what or Apple 103 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,239 Speaker 1: Creek Apple Creek. Thank you for the wrong information, Jackie, 104 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: yet again Apple Creek. And the reason I'm saying that 105 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: is because, let me just throughout New York City, Okay, 106 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:46,239 Speaker 1: where I've lived for so long. There's Manhattan, and there 107 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: are there's the Upper east Side, there's an Upper West 108 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: Side where all the rich people live. Then there are 109 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: other areas that are high crime. This area apple Creek 110 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: on a cold decac I mean, this might as well 111 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: be Beaver. Leave it to Beaver. I'm sure you remember 112 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: that there's no crime there. It's not like somebody carjacked 113 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: her as she's driving out of the driveway. Help me 114 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: out here, throw me a bone, Jason Campo, there is 115 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: anything that could have happened to her that morning. She 116 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: only worked fifteen twenty minutes away from there. I'm familiar 117 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: with that area being here in Texas anyhow, going to 118 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: San Antonio a regular basis. But there's nothing in that 119 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: neighborhood that would make you think anything suspicious would happen 120 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: right there in front of her house. As far as 121 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: leaving her watch and her phone behind. I think we've 122 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: all been in that situation where we're running late for 123 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: work and we're just trying to grab everything that we can, 124 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: and we leave things behind. You know what I thought, 125 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: on Jason Campo one time in ten years, I was 126 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: like to a calendar call. I was humiliated and mortified. 127 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: My car started smoking out from under the hood at 128 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: a red light. I'm like, that's not good, and I 129 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: managed together really slowly. I parked the car on the 130 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: street and raced him without any of my files. Jason Campo, 131 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about. This was an arrayment 132 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: calendar car with one hundred and fifty one hundred and 133 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: seventy defendants all felony on it waiting for me. I 134 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: got in there. The court room was totally silent. Everybody 135 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: was in place. The judge was sitting there, God bless him. 136 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: He never said a word and I started court. I'll 137 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: never forget it. So that is just in my mind, 138 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: because this woman does not run late. She's a paralegal. 139 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: You cannot be late if the lawyer has a court 140 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: date or something similar, Jason. Normally, we try our best. 141 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: My paralegal was hardly ever late, but every once in 142 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: a while something might come up. You might oversleep, missing alarmed, 143 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: especially coming off the long weekend. Your schedule is off 144 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: and your mind is just not back in the place 145 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: where it needs to be to get back to work 146 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,719 Speaker 1: on time. And another thing, Paul's joining me form a 147 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: police commander in Albuquerque domestic homicide talking and author stop 148 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: him from killing them on Amazon Paul another complication. And 149 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 1: I don't want to refer to the children as a complication, 150 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: because it got the joy of her life. But when 151 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: you have children, a three year old and a twelve 152 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: year old, you've got a lot to do before you 153 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: can get out the door. If one of them says, 154 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: mom must die my heart, you've got to deal with 155 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: that before you can leave it. Now, when if she 156 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: left her iPhone, it makes a lot of sense that 157 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: she would be in a rush. And you know, I 158 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: was saving kids myself. You know, there's a lot of 159 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: moving parts. It's almost like a small business. But I 160 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: will say that when she left that morning, she did 161 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: have her purse on her shoulders. Sure it is as 162 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: she answered, and that just leads me to believe there 163 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: could be a little more to the leaving the iPhone 164 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 1: possibly in the eye watch behind. Seeing trackable means that 165 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: there would been and those are left behind. That's slightly concerning. 166 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: I'm also interested in her car, so twenty Nisan Road 167 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: black in color, and we researched through as soon as 168 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: I found out that Chrissie's missing. You have to buy 169 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 1: the NAV system, which is you know, chowing practically every car. 170 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: You know, how you buy a package? Do you want 171 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: serious XM? Do you want this? Do you want that? 172 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: Do you want carpet or leather as part of the package. 173 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: And I don't know if Stephanie pigunas she had that 174 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: NAV system. We don't have a cell phone, we don't 175 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: have an Apple Watch to track her. I was thinking, 176 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: does her Niecean have a NAV system? Time Stories with 177 00:10:55,240 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: Nancy Grace. Chrissy Christina Powell goes missing from her own home. 178 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: According to a ring doorbell cam. She's seen rushing off 179 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: dressed for work or bags lung over her shoulder. Mom 180 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: gets worried when she realizes Chrissy didn't take her cell 181 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,719 Speaker 1: phone or her meds, but then the evening passes and 182 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: Chrissy doesn't call back to check on the children or 183 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: show up for dinner. What do we know about the 184 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: morning she raced out of the home July six, It's 185 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: ten thirty four a m. We know that because of 186 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: the ring camera she leaves. I've watched it fifty times. 187 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: She's walking out very like you know, walking down the 188 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: halls to the courthouse. She's on her way, not dawdling. 189 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: Jumps in the car and Mom sees her leaf. Then 190 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: what happens. So that's correct. So this was actually July fifth, 191 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 1: two day July, thank you. Around ten thirty five in 192 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,199 Speaker 1: the morning, she walks out the door like you said, 193 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: Mom sees her driving away. Mom said it seemed as 194 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: though she was going to work. She said her mother 195 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: believed that she was going to work. And not only that, 196 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: but her mother said she believed her daughter believed she 197 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 1: was going to work. But then around noon that day, 198 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: or I should say more around lunchtime, one of her 199 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: colleagues shows up at Christie's home. Her twelve year old 200 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: son answers the door and they said, at her mom home, 201 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: we haven't seen her. Apparently the coworker wants to check 202 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: in to see if her mother might have or to 203 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: see if Christie might have fallen back to sleep. Twelve 204 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: year old though, went to check to make sure, and 205 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: of course Christie was not home. The next day, Christie's 206 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: mother called the police. Called on just a set, just 207 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: a set. He just says something that's very, very critical 208 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: in my mind, Doctor Angie. The office, the law firm 209 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: where she worked, realizes is so unusual for her not 210 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 1: to be there. They despatch a female colleague that goes 211 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: to Chrissie's home. Is your mom here? It's so unusual. 212 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: I mean, when have you say that happened? Not a 213 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: lot that the office sends somebody to the home. And 214 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 1: I got to tell you, the relationship between a lawyer 215 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: and the paralegal is very close. They work hand in glove. 216 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 1: I compare it to my investigator, Earnest. We did everything together, 217 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:22,439 Speaker 1: we ate, lunched together, we suffered together, we did everything together. 218 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: We've been at the Georgia Supreme Court and strip clubs 219 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: together trying to find witnesses and make our cases. So 220 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: when your paralegal doesn't show up, that's a big red flag. 221 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 1: And it was so unusual. She's so reliable. They actually 222 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: sends somebody to the house. They don't just call the house, 223 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 1: they send somebody you know, Nancy. The other question that 224 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: I have about this also is has this ever happened before? 225 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 1: Because isn't it isn't it odd that she asked, is 226 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: your mother still asleep? Yeah, nobody would ever think I'll 227 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: be asleep at ten thirty four in the morning. What 228 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: do we know about at Stephanie, Because if she's never missed, 229 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: I'd been late to work before or skipped out on 230 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 1: work totally. You know, I don't see any any indication. 231 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: But I did notice the question wise, is your mom asleep? 232 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: What did they say? Is your mom here? So that's 233 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 1: a good question. So this is coming from Christie's family, 234 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: who say that the coworker came to the house because 235 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: they thought she might have fallen back to sleep. Interesting. Interesting, 236 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: Something might have been lost in translation there, But christie 237 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: mother did tell me that it is unusual for her 238 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: daughter to be late and rushing in the morning. I mean, 239 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: when you said Stephanie lost in translation? For all I know, 240 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: the coworker said, hey, is your mom here? And the 241 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: little boy said no, she said work, but let me 242 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: make sure she didn't fall back to sleep. I don't 243 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: know how that guy's in the mix. Guys, take a 244 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: listen to our friend isis Romero k E N S five. 245 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: Chrissie Powell called the law firm where she works last 246 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: Tuesday to say she was running late on that day, 247 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: was seen on video rushing out of her home, but 248 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: she never showed up to work. Since then, there has 249 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: been no sign of the mother of two. Leyall even 250 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: went down the route her friend would have taken to 251 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: work to see if maybe she crashed, but nothing. Chrissie 252 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: Powell has wavy shoulder length hair. She is five two. 253 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: You know, we know the female co worker came to 254 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: Chrissie's home around one pm, so she probably came right 255 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: after her lunch break. So Stephanie Pogonis, when did mom? 256 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: And I find this interesting that she lives at home 257 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: with her mother and her children, literally on a cold 258 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: sack in Apple Creek neighborhood in San Antonio. Jason Campo 259 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: with me, chief prosecutor out of Cameron County. Jason, you 260 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: said you're very familiar with the Apple Creek area. Tell 261 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: me about it. It's a it's a kind of a 262 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: small community be there in the heart of San Antonio, 263 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: and like the bigger city, it feels like you're kind 264 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: of in a smaller town. It's quiet, trees lining the 265 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: sides of the roads. It feels like everyday American town 266 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: that doesn't feel like it's part of the big city. 267 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: But it is also right there attached to it. I'm 268 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: very familiar with it. My first cousin lived there forever 269 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:31,239 Speaker 1: as a cowhand, okay, running a ranch near San Antonio. 270 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: Beautiful area. And why I keep saying col de Sac 271 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: and I say that, Paul's like, because you ever drove 272 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: down to cauld Sack and you get to the very end, 273 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: you think, wow, if I lived here, I live on 274 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: that last house on the cul de sac. Absolutely no traffic. Yeah, 275 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: it's not a cut or a cut through to get 276 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: from the shopping center to the Thimbo grocery store. You know, 277 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 1: it's not a cut. There's not a lot of traffic. 278 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: You can't cut through a coul de sac. You don't 279 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: have a lot to back and forth traffic there. And 280 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: here she is at the end of a cul de 281 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: sat in Apple Creek neighborhood, for Pete's sake, where nobody 282 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 1: people could probably leave their doors a lot which I 283 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: do not advise. And that is significant here because there's 284 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: nobody hiding behind a bush to carjack her at the mailbox. No, 285 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: And there's no piece of information that would even suggest that. 286 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: Certainly right off the bat, I would the fact that 287 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: no money's taken from her account. I think the financial 288 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 1: aspect of that is taken out. Even low level criminals 289 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 1: will you know, if they're going to take you a gunpoint, 290 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 1: you know they're going to take you to ATM, they're 291 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: going to make you take money out, They're gonna you know, 292 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: they're going to pursue what they want as money, you know, 293 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: obviosated by drugs. And the second real concerning issue is 294 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: the July third text message threats that have been mentioned 295 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 1: with her actor, you know, Stephanie Pogona. Paul Zyke joining 296 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: US out of Albuquerque brought up an interesting point that 297 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: nothing taken out of the ATM, which suggests to him 298 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: a random carjacker didn't grab her and forced her to 299 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: go to the bank to withdraw money. But it also 300 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 1: indicates something else if you think about it. The flip 301 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 1: side of that is, if she were just going to 302 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: walk away from her beloved children that she took care 303 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: of it and loved and lived with, she hasn't withdrawn 304 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 1: any money to live off. What is she going to do? 305 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 1: What go forage in the forest. That's not happening. So 306 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: that's a double edged sword right there. Is there any 307 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 1: indication she took any money with her Stephanie so far, 308 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 1: her mother hasn't said whether she has actually taken money 309 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: with her. But what her mother has said is that 310 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: while they have been able to determine no money has 311 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,439 Speaker 1: been taken from her debit account, they have had trouble 312 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: and faced resistance in obtaining information about her credit accounts. 313 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: They say that when they contacted the powers that be 314 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 1: to get that information, they were told that it can't 315 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: be provided to them because Christie is an adult. So 316 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: that's something that remains to be determined more or less 317 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: by her family. Chrissy Christina Powell goes missing from her 318 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: own home. According to ring doorbell cam, she's seen rushing 319 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 1: off dressed for work or bags lung over her shoulder. 320 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: Mom gets worried when she realizes Chrissie didn't take her 321 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: cell phone or her meds, But then the evening passes 322 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,360 Speaker 1: and Chrissy doesn't call back to check on the children 323 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: or show up for dinner. The case seemingly goes cold. 324 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 1: You know, Jason Campo, chief Prosecutor, joining us out of 325 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 1: the Texas jurisdiction. The mother has her cell phone. We 326 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: know there's been no ATM activity, but that is concerning, 327 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: And that brings me to the major point that police 328 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: sat on their bombs San ANTONIOPD. I'm calling you out 329 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 1: settle their thombs for three days before they reported Chrissy 330 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,719 Speaker 1: as a missing person. What. I don't know if they 331 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 1: put out a bolo for her before those three days, 332 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 1: if they were just to be on the lookout for her. 333 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: It's not a missing person you put out a bolo. 334 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: I want to escape you from the jail, please, that's correct. 335 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 1: Sometimes they do that in the first couple of days 336 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: of a missing person case two to just be on 337 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: the lookout, especially when there's nothing that shows right from 338 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: the beginning that there's some kind of foul play if 339 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: they're starting the investigation. So I don't know if maybe 340 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 1: that's what they were doing, and then once that led 341 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: to nothing, that's when they switched it to a missing 342 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: person case. But on top on top of the money 343 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: not being moved, I think even if she wanted to 344 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: walk out, she would have at least taken her medicine 345 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: with her right because that's not going to change, and 346 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: so I think leaving the medicine that she needed at home. 347 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: Two just says that she was planning on coming back 348 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 1: that day after work. I agree. I agree completely, and 349 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: I want to talk about her two children. But first 350 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: take a listen to our cut eight our friends at 351 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 1: crime online dot com. Family members say they have checked 352 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: Pale's bank account and there's been no spending activities or withdrawals. 353 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: Her mother was able to access the account from the 354 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,479 Speaker 1: phone that was left behind. They have been unable to 355 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 1: look into her credit card activity. However, her route to 356 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 1: work has also been checked. The distance from her home 357 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: to work is roughly seven miles and takes about fifteen 358 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 1: minutes to drive. Pal's friends and family have retraced the 359 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: possibilities looking for a possible crash. Local hospitals and the 360 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 1: county jail have been covered too, but no sign of 361 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: Chrissy Powell. This is why I've determined they need to 362 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: be doing. Number One, get other ringdoorbells in off that 363 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 1: cal To sack. You know, they've all got them leading 364 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 1: all the way out of the cal To sack and 365 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 1: then red light camps if they exist, parking garage or 366 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: parking lot evidence at work? Did she make it that far? 367 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: Did someone accost her when she got there and take 368 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: off in her car? Check intersections for evidence, including evidence 369 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: that her car may have been hit. You know there 370 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: is a scam where somebody will run into your car, 371 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: you get out to check on it, and then they 372 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: car jack you with the car. That's possible. I would 373 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: be checking those intersections and the entire route along the 374 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: way when I circle back to you. Stephanie Pogona is 375 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: joining us from Fox Digital. I understand the family retraced 376 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: her route to work and found nothing, But you need 377 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: a crime scene analyst going out there, possibly even a 378 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: reconstruction an accident reconstructionist to look to see if there 379 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: is any tail lights or broken glass or broken plastic 380 00:22:55,800 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: that they could find from that sort of an attack. Also, 381 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:06,239 Speaker 1: was she a loving target? Did someone somehow jump in 382 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 1: at a red light? Jump in at a stop sign? Also? 383 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 1: Is there any keycard information? Did she try to get 384 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: into the building but couldn't? Also is there nav information 385 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: navigation information that we could obtain? Also, gas station information, 386 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 1: fast food joints, along the way, did she drive through 387 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: Starbucks to get a coffee? Also? Tag grabbers, tag grabbers. 388 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: There are those little poles you see on the side 389 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 1: of the Interstate of the road with a metal horizontal strip. 390 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:45,360 Speaker 1: They're grabbing your tag license, and thank Heaven they exist. 391 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: Those are just a few things that I want to 392 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: throw out, But to you, Stephanie Pogonis, could you address 393 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: that please? Yes, absolutely, And I do want to point 394 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: out that one of the things I found I noticed 395 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: in case, I should say, in the missing endangered adult 396 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: flyer that police released, at least the one that they 397 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: sent to me, they did not even include information regarding 398 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: the kind of car she was driving. Oh, dear Lord 399 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 1: in Heaven. You know I love Andy of Maybury, But 400 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: what is is Barney five? What you've got to put 401 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: the car in there? I mean, there's a great picture 402 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: for standing by the car, but normally they do a 403 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 1: mock up. Stephanie Pagonis of that make and model, that year, 404 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 1: in that color as best as they know it, with 405 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: a big picture of the tag number. That's a good catch, 406 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 1: Stephanie Pagonis, This girl is no dummy. Take a listen 407 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: to our cut nine our friends at crime online dot Com. 408 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: Chrissy Powell is originally from New Haven, Connecticut. She graduated 409 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 1: with a degree in psychology from the University of Texas 410 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: at San Antonio and works as a paralegal. News reports 411 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: looking at Powell's social media posts say that Powell is 412 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 1: the mother of at least to boys ages three and twelve. 413 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:05,159 Speaker 1: Pal's longtime friend, Lauren Lele, says she took pride in 414 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 1: being a mom. In twenty eighteen, Pal posted a photo 415 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: promoting domestic violence awareness, but her latest social posts are 416 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 1: on a more happy note, posting a puppy update with 417 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 1: photos of her two dogs, Oliver and Chevy. So, this 418 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,360 Speaker 1: woman has a psychology degree at University Texas and Antonio, 419 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: she's originally from Newhaving, Connecticut, and she's made a real 420 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: life for herself. It's not like she's out turning tricks 421 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: and buying crack on the corner. That means a lot. 422 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: Doctor Angela Arnold explain why her lifestyle is significant. It 423 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 1: sounds like she's a very responsible person. And of course 424 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 1: we don't know a lot of her background. It it 425 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: seems like we don't know a lot of her background, 426 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 1: her different relationships that she's been on but she certainly 427 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 1: seems very responsible at this point, because, like you said, Nancy, 428 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how many people are aware of how 429 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: of the kind of job that a paralegal does. But 430 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,239 Speaker 1: it's a very important job, and you have to be 431 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: really good at that job for somebody to keep you around, 432 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 1: because the lawyers depend very heavily on their paralegals. That's 433 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: my understanding. So she's got two children, she's living with 434 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 1: her mother, she's got a new car, she's got a 435 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:24,160 Speaker 1: full time job. She's got a good degree from college. 436 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: It's not easy to get a psychology degree. Okay, So 437 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: all of these things indicate a stability in her life. Okay. 438 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: I was waiting for you to make the connection to victimology, 439 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: Jason Campbell. What I'm looking for. Everything that Angela Arnold 440 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 1: said is true, but it all equals to one thing. 441 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: Low crime risk. Absolutely, she seems like a low crime 442 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: risk type of a victim. She is somebody that is reliable. 443 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: She's somebody that you can count on. The fact that 444 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: they sent somebody to her home tells me that she's 445 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 1: worked there long enough that they think that it's odd 446 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: or out of her behavior that she wouldn't come in. 447 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 1: We do the same thing here at our office. If 448 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: we can't get ahold of somebody by nine o'clock nine 449 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: thirty in the morning and we haven't heard from them, 450 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 1: we send an investigator or somebody to their home to 451 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 1: check and find out what's going on. Because in order 452 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: to maintain these jobs, I think you have to be 453 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: a reliable type of a person, and when you do 454 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 1: something like that, it sends up red flags right away. 455 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: Time stories with Nancy Grace what happened to Chrissy. She 456 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 1: takes off, leaving behind her mom who helps take care 457 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: of her child, headed to her job as a paralegal, 458 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 1: all dressed for work, and then seemingly vanishes into thin air. 459 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: Another thing that's very troubling is this. Take a listen 460 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: to our cut ten our friends at climb online dot com. 461 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,479 Speaker 1: New information shows that Chrissie Powell and the father of 462 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,959 Speaker 1: one of her two children argued over text messages. Powell 463 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 1: had left her phone at home the day she disappeared. 464 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: Her mother, Claudia Mobley, told the son that her daughter 465 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 1: had argued with the father of the three year old. 466 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: Mobley says she doesn't know what the pair were arguing about. 467 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,199 Speaker 1: But she adds that it wasn't unusual. Mobley says that 468 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: she doesn't think the X could have hurt her daughter, 469 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: and he has spoken to the police. When Chrissy Powell 470 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 1: didn't show up at work, one of her colleagues went 471 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: to her Apple Creek home to check in on her. 472 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: Powell's old a son, twelve years old, answered the door. 473 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: When asked if his mom was home, he replied, she's 474 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: at work. In a span of just three hours, Chrissie 475 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: Powell disappeared. Claudia Mobley says her conversation with her daughter 476 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: that morning was nothing out of the ordinary. They exchanged 477 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: morning greetings followed by I'm leaving, I'm late, and be careful, 478 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 1: love you. Mobley saw her daughter drive away after the 479 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 1: colleague visit, and when her daughter didn't return home, Mobley 480 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: reported her daughter missing with the San Antonio Police Department 481 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: the next day. You know it's interesting about that will 482 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: so many things. Doctor Angela Arnold, renowned psychiatrist joining us 483 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: out of the Atlanta jurisdiction and you can find her 484 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: at Angela Arnold MD dot com. Doctor Angie. The dichotomy 485 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 1: of it being a normal morning, grabbing your stuff, running 486 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: out the door. You're late saying bye, I love you, 487 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: Be careful. It just brings back to mind the day 488 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: I learned my fiance have been murdered. I had been 489 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: in a statistics exam and I walked out and inside 490 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: it was an old building at Mercy University, and it 491 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: was dark in there in the hallway, and I walked 492 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 1: out and it was sunny and bright and beautiful. I thought, wow, 493 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: and started walking To work the dichotomy between what feels 494 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: to be a normal day and then all of a 495 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: sudden world blows up. Nobody is ready for this. That 496 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: mother and those two children are not ready for this. 497 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: It changes everything. Well, it knocks them off their guard also, 498 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: so first they're in shock about what's happened, and they're 499 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: kind of learning what's happened all along. Right, it's not 500 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,959 Speaker 1: like you go, oh my god, she's been kidnapped, Oh 501 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 1: my god, she's run away.

So people are trying to 504 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: gather evidence, but at the same time there's a level 505 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: of shock that's going on with the family. The answer 506 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: is the car we now learn Chrissy's vehicle first spotted 507 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: by security guards and the parking lot of a nearby 508 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 1: shopping strip mall Kibner Oaks Center.
