He was there to rape and kill. 175 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 7: He was Nancy. 176 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 8: And this is very carefully planned if you think about it. 177 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 8: He left Al Savador and could have just started again 178 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 8: and maybe he wouldn't have been caught. But he can't stop. 179 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 8: He gets pleasure. It derives pleasure from doing this. It 180 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 8: was planned. Although he's pretty indiscriminate because he does a child, 181 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 8: her mother. This person in Al Salvador's a young woman 182 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 8: and then Rachel, so all ages and he doesn't care 183 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 8: as long as he's able to rape and kill. And 184 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 8: it's very fortunate that the nine year old to the 185 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 8: family came and he wasn't able to kill her. I 186 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 8: have no doubt he would have because that's where he 187 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 8: gets his pleasure. And by the way, smash the face 188 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 8: in because he doesn't want her to see him. 189 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: Symbolically, a non citizen migrant who has just been busted 190 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: in the murder and rape of a gorgeous young mother 191 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 1: of five.

At the time, 203 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 1: we analyzed the evidence, and we believed he had attacked 204 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: and even killed before we were right. 205 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 4: Listen, we all suspected that perhaps Rachel was not his 206 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 4: first victim. And it's my understanding that this suspect, this monster, 207 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 4: fled to the United States illegally after committing the brutal 208 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 4: murder of a young woman in El Salvador a month 209 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 4: early in January of twenty twenty three.

He came here 215 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 4: to escape the crime he committed in El Salvador. He 216 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 4: came here and murdered Rachel and God willing no one else, 217 00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 4: but that should have never been allowed to happen. 218 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace.

But there's so much 226 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:58,359 Speaker 1: more to this story, Ms Moran, How did you learn 227 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: that Rachel's kill or had been caught? Because this was 228 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: a man hunt like no other, crossing borders all the 229 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: way to Old Salvador. 230 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 2: Actually, the sheriff department reached out to our family and 231 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 2: had set up a meeting in their office to let 232 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 2: us know that they had identified the suspect and that 233 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 2: they were in the process of trying to locate him. 234 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 2: So at the time we weren't allowed to say anything. 235 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 2: They showed us a picture of him, and then we 236 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 2: were expecting that it would still take some time. But miraculously, 237 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 2: within hours after they informed us, they were able to 238 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 2: locate him and apprehend him. 239 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: Looking at this guy, he looks like somebody you might 240 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: pass on the way to the subway or at the 241 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: grocery store. Little did everyone know, this guy with the 242 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: big smile laid in wait to catch Rachel, mother of five, 243 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 1: and she walked around the bend of the Ma and 244 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: Paw trail there near bel Air, Maryland. As you can see, 245 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: the bend in the trail gives him perfect cover. He's 246 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 1: like a hyena waiting at the waterpool, waiting for the 247 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 1: beautiful gazelle to come by and then pounce, just waiting. 248 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: Rachel had no idea what would befall her that day. 249 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 1: Tracking this guy, this guy, Victor Antonio Martinez her Nandez, 250 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,360 Speaker 1: was no easy thing. Listen, if he's come. 251 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 6: Under the radar through Haida, that means they may have 252 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 6: already had pre incident contact with this guy on other 253 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 6: types of crimes, narcotics investigations, or something to that effect. 254 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 6: The fact that the sheriff mentioned them the other day 255 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 6: as a partner who assisted in this case, that threw 256 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 6: me a red flag that, Okay, this guy had been 257 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 6: in this country. And now that big question is what 258 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 6: was he doing. Was he running dope, you know? Was 259 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 6: he working for somebody? And maybe this is what gave 260 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 6: him the availability to travel around the United States and 261 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:22,719 Speaker 6: how he ended up in Tulsa, Oklahoma. 262 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 1: Joining me in addition to Rachel's mother Patty, is renowned 263 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 1: psychoanalyst doctor Bethany Marshall. Joining us from La Doctor Bethany. 264 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 1: I've tried so many cases where the victim was involved 265 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: in wrongdoing. I've tried a lot of drug cases that 266 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: turned into homicide cases. But there are those singular cases. 267 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:52,439 Speaker 1: There are those cases that strike me where it's such 268 00:18:52,720 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: a dichotomy of good versus evil. You have Rachel Moren, young, beautiful, happy, 269 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: a fantastic mother, and you know how I feel, Bethany, 270 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 1: there is no greater compliment to me than someone saying, 271 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: you know what, You're really a good mom. She devoted 272 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 1: herself to five children. You got her, and you got 273 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: this guy just trucking a lawn. Martinez Hernandez already killed 274 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: one person in El Salvador, sneaks over here, somewhere in 275 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: the timeline, he sex assaults a nine year old little girl. 276 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you, Bethany, doctor Bethany, there are more victims. 277 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,959 Speaker 1: Be they in Virginia, in California, in Tulsa, where he 278 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 1: was apprehended. I'm not sure, but I do know this. 279 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: These are not his only victims. That dichotomy I'm talking about. 280 00:19:55,240 --> 00:20:01,360 Speaker 1: You've got Rachel Morin, just beautiful. I love it, by 281 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 1: her family, her mother who is with us, today and 282 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: they got this guy. And it makes me wonder this 283 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 1: age old question, why to our very best people fall 284 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: victim to people like Hernandez. 285 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 7: Yes, good and evil, it's right there. 286 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,959 Speaker 9: And what I really am struck by in this case 287 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 9: is that this perpetrator is what I would call poly perverse, 288 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 9: and so this makes this guy very, very dangerous. 289 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 7: And the other thing Nancy that strikes me is the 290 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 7: enormous amount of energy that goes into these crimes. This 291 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 7: guy is not just you know, in one town or 292 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 7: one village and you know, just sneaking out at night 293 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 7: and killing or raping somebody. This guy is traveling all 294 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:49,959 Speaker 7: over the world. 295 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 9: So if he hadn't been caught, we could have had 296 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 9: a total killing spree. 297 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:56,919 Speaker 1: Well, I don't know what you mean by could have 298 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: had a total killing spree. I'm god a victim and 299 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,959 Speaker 1: El Salvador dead, Rachel morn is dead, a nine year 300 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: old girl has been raped, and I guarantee you there 301 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: are more dead bodies in his wake. And the reason 302 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: this guy has been caught before he could kill again 303 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: is because of Rachel Moron and the publicity and the 304 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: intent the iron will. Her mother had to see this 305 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: thing through I don't know how many more victims there 306 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: would be, so I do know who and what Rachel 307 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: Moron is. She is the lady that moms want their 308 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: girls to grow up and be. That's who Rachel Moren is. 309 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,439 Speaker 1: Who is this guy?

She loved learning 323 00:22:55,000 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 2: new things. Everything excited her. The excitement wasn't learning, but 324 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 2: also she was very sensitive. She cared about people.

They couldn't stand 337 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 2: why she couldn't come back. She has an autistic daughter 338 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 2: who's high on the spectrum, and her daughter just kept saying, 339 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,919 Speaker 2: I just want my friend back, and she couldn't understand 340 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 2: that she couldn't come back to her. I know that 341 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 2: they've been getting a counseling and help in processing this, 342 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 2: but I think that it's going to be a long 343 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 2: time because they're still so young and so at different 344 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 2: points in their growth and in their maturity. They're going 345 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 2: to come back to this and kind of reprocess it. 346 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 2: So I think this is going to be a long 347 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 2: term thing for her children. 348 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: Patty. How old is her youngest eight years old? There 349 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 1: are five of them. Have they been tipped together or 350 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 1: did they have to be separated? 351 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 2: There's five, they're all separated. Her oldest daughter has been 352 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 2: living with her and say for the past two years 353 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,239 Speaker 2: or so, and they're actually expecting their first baby, so 354 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 2: Rachel's missing the birth for first granddaughter. Then two of 355 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 2: her children, the next two in age, are with their father, 356 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:22,439 Speaker 2: which is about an hour away from the rest of 357 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 2: the family, and then the youngest live in the area, 358 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 2: so they live with their fathers in separate places. But 359 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 2: they do try to come together a couple of times 360 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:40,199 Speaker 2: a month to hang out for a weekend and to 361 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 2: be with each other. But it's very, very disheartening to 362 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 2: have such a broken up family. 363 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: You know, until I had the twins, I you know, 364 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 1: I would hear people talk about the best thing that 365 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: ever happened to them was having a grandchild and being there. 366 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: The significance of being there when grandchild came. The thought 367 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 1: that I wouldn't be there to help my daughter when 368 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: she has a baby or to help my son. It's 369 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: devastating the most important thing that happens to them in 370 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: their life, and she's not going to be there, and 371 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: that child is not going to have her. And when 372 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: I think about this woman, when I think about Rachel Moore, 373 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 1: and I was first when I heard about her murder, 374 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 1: I was just struck by her incredible physical beauty. But 375 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:39,959 Speaker 1: the more I learned about her, she was completely devoted 376 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: to those children. And who is he listened? 377 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,400 Speaker 4: Victor Hernandez did not come here to make a better 378 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 4: life for himself or for his family. He came here 379 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 4: to escape the crime he committed. No Salador became here 380 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 4: and murdered Rachel and God willing no one else. But 381 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,040 Speaker 4: that should have never been. 382 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 10: Allowed to happen. 383 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace. An emotional day in a 384 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 1: court of law when the man accused and the murder 385 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 1: of mom of five, Rachel Morin appears, Rachel's mother breaks 386 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: down in tears, and shortly thereafter it's announced the trial 387 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 1: for murder will be delayed. Nearly a year. Is justice delayed? 388 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: Justice denied for Rachel's family. Patty Mooren, along with her lawyer, 389 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 1: also joining us Randolph Rice, who is the family lawyer. 390 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: I might add Vincent Hill joining me in addition to 391 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: doctor Bethany Marshall. Vincent Hill investigative reporter of Fox forty 392 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:54,880 Speaker 1: five in Baltimore and former police officer in Private Eye. 393 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: He's the author of Playbook to a Murder. Vincent, thank 394 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: you for joining us. I want to try and explain, 395 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: but you're very familiar with the path. How this guy, 396 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: a predator, already murdered one woman back in El Salvador, 397 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:14,119 Speaker 1: already attacked a mother and a nine year old little girl. 398 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 1: How he is waiting along this trail. And this is 399 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 1: not a trail where nobody can say, you know, Vincent, 400 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: how people love to say, oh, I would never have 401 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: gone walking on that trail by myself, or everybody feels 402 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: in the blank right there. It drives me crazy. So 403 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 1: they can differentiate themselves from a violent crime victim because 404 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: it makes you feel safe. That's not going to happen 405 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: to you. But this trail, Ma and Pa trail, it's 406 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: a family trail. Families are on it all the time. 407 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: If you look past those trees, there's an apartment complex 408 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: and people access it all the time. And I just 409 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: want to point out there is no way to insinuate 410 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: that Rachel Moore and in any way was acting negligently 411 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 1: or recklessly. I wanted to dispel that myth because I've 412 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: heard it. It's not true. Yeah, that's right, Nancy. 413 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 10: I mean, if Rachel had any inkling that something would 414 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 10: have been bess on that trail, given her size, given 415 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 10: the fact that she was alone, she wouldn't have been there. 416 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 10: But on that particular day, I'm sure there were hundreds 417 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 10: of people out because the weather was nice. This guy 418 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 10: was lying in wait, he had been to that trail, 419 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 10: he'd maybe even seen Rachel before, because we know that 420 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 10: he had been in Maryland for quite some time before 421 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 10: he did what he did. So Rachel was just going 422 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 10: about her day and unfortunately she was in the wrong 423 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 10: place at the wrong time, and she came across Victor Martinez, 424 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 10: which ended her life. 425 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,479 Speaker 1: You know, Vincent, I want to address something that you 426 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: just said. Of course, everything you said is usual is accurate, 427 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: But you said, and I think it's because Rachel's mother 428 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: is with us. You said, he and you paused did 429 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: what he did. I've had to look jury's in the face. 430 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: Little old ladies sitting on the jury and tell them 431 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: what happened. Rachel's mother knows what happened. You think I 432 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: want to hurt her. We have to be blunt. What 433 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 1: he did. He did, what he did, you said, after 434 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: a long pause. He stalked her, he saw her. He 435 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: bludgeoned her, He beat in her face, and he raped her. 436 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: And he left her on that trail naked. He stole 437 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: this mother from her children in the most brutal fashion, 438 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 1: like an animal. That is what he did. And there's 439 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: no way to sugarcoat it. There's no way to airbrush 440 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: it or massage it into something else. And because of Rachel, 441 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: we know who he is and he is behind bars. 442 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: This is what happened. Listen. 443 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 11: There was a bend in the trail that most likely 444 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 11: was used by the individual who attacked Rachel in the 445 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 11: trail pulled her through the wooded area into this drainage culvert, 446 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 11: where she ultimately lost her life. 447 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 12: DNA evidence was collected by our Forensic Services Union. That 448 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 12: DNA was analyzed by the Maryland State Police and it 449 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 12: was ran through the National Code System DNA evidences. 450 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 6: I mean, this DNA. 451 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 12: Evidence has come back as a match tied to a 452 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 12: home invasion and insult and an assault of a young 453 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 12: girl in Los Angeles this past March. Unfortunately, that suspect 454 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 12: has not been positively identified, but he did leave behind. 455 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: His DNA and that was then. This is now We 456 00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: got him due to an extensive manhunt and incredible work 457 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: by lab scientists in genetic genealogy cutting edge DNA, we 458 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: have Hernandez. I want to go to our special guest, 459 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 1: Patty Moren. This is Rachel's mother, Ms. Mouran. Yes, I'm 460 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 1: so sorry what you've lived through, but I know you're 461 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 1: going to be front and center when this goes to trial. 462 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 1: How many times have you let yourself lived through what 463 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: Rachel experienced? 464 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 2: It's an everyday thing. Sad to say, it's I know. 465 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 2: Part of grieving is you have to face the facts 466 00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 2: and you have to process them. And until they apprehended 467 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 2: the suspect, it was easy to kind of live and 468 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 2: deny a little bit. But now that they have a suspect, 469 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 2: it makes all the facts true and you have to 470 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 2: face the truth and accept it. And so you have 471 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 2: to rethink what you've been told and process those thoughts 472 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 2: and put a timeline to it. And it's very it's like, 473 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 2: it's so painful and grieving to think what my daughter 474 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 2: experienced and that there was no one there to help her. 475 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 2: You know, as moms, we want. 476 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: To protect our children, and I have. 477 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 2: Something so unexpected to happen, and for us just not 478 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 2: to be there, not able to help, it's been a 479 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 2: very it's it's been very hard. It's my plan to 480 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 2: be there because I wasn't there to protect her or 481 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 2: to help her, but I want to be there after 482 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 2: the fact, I guess to make sure that absolutely everything 483 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 2: is done for her and that nothing is left undone. 484 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,919 Speaker 1: Randolph, I'm so glad you're there with Ms morn, I'm 485 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:44,760 Speaker 1: just so glad you're there. Randolph Rice, high profile lawyer 486 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: that's working with the Moron family. Just let me go 487 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: to Chris McDonough. He is the director of the Cold 488 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 1: Case Foundation. He has been working on this case and 489 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:59,360 Speaker 1: investigating on his own, as we all have been. Former 490 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: homicide detective with no less than three hundred homicide investigations 491 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 1: under his belt. I found him on YouTube on the 492 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: interview room during the Coburger investigation and was struck by 493 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: his knowledge, his intimate familiarity with not only that case, 494 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 1: but the workings of a courtroom. And Chris McDonough, I 495 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: don't know if you ever let yourself think about the 496 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 1: suffering of the victims that you and I have represented 497 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 1: our whole careers, if you can call what we do 498 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 1: a career. But Chris, I'm listening to Ms. Morin and 499 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:41,839 Speaker 1: I have never been quite as brave as she is 500 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:46,840 Speaker 1: being today because when I think about my fiance's murder, 501 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 1: what happened in those moments that he was killed, I 502 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 1: stopped myself because to this day it gives me an 503 00:35:56,320 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 1: intense headache, a horrible headache when I start reliving what 504 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 1: I think happened. Crime victims never get away from it, 505 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 1: and I can't. Now that I've got children, I can't 506 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: imagine what a parent goes through. You heard Rachel. You 507 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: heard Rachel's mom describing you can't be there for your child, 508 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: your baby, you can't help them. It's excruciating. How do 509 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,840 Speaker 1: you separate yourself from that? Chris? 510 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 6: You know I lost a child in two thousand and three, 511 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 6: and I don't think anybody quite understands like Nancy's explaining 512 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 6: about the death of her fiance, what depth of pain 513 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 6: you can get to. But here's the other good news. 514 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:52,400 Speaker 6: You can get through it, and you can empower yourself 515 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:58,800 Speaker 6: that her life makes a difference to perhaps somebody else's family, 516 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 6: that this never happens again to anybody else, that they 517 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 6: have to experience what you're experiencing. So it does. You 518 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 6: will be able to get through it. 519 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,399 Speaker 13: And you know, I know. 520 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 6: That Nancy's given you an amazing platform here to tell 521 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 6: the nation. You know how you're going to do that, 522 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 6: and I commend you for saying what you've said even 523 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 6: this morning. 524 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 14: I will personally be leading the prosecution of this case. 525 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 14: While the defendant is innocent, until and unless he has 526 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 14: proven guilty, Arford County and our neighboring communities can rest 527 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 14: assured that my office will take all steps necessary to 528 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 14: ensure that justice is served for Rachel Morin and her family. 529 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 1: Thank Heaven, there is a prosecutor with some backbone that 530 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 1: will go after this case. But the case isn't done. 531 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: The case is still being built. Listen. 532 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 4: We're still looking for information. He was in this area 533 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,320 Speaker 4: for at least some period of time, and when I 534 00:37:58,360 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 4: say the area, he was in the bel Air area 535 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 4: for some period of time before or right after the homicide. 536 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:07,839 Speaker 4: Were both so if people still have information, and now 537 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 4: that there's a name to put with the face, the 538 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 4: investigators still want to talk to you. We still want 539 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:15,280 Speaker 4: to know. We still want to build that timeline because 540 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 4: there is a case to prosecute. We want to put 541 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 4: all the pieces together so that Miss Healy can do 542 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 4: her job most successfully and again ensure this guy never 543 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:24,359 Speaker 4: sees the light of day. 544 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 1: And in that Vein says, the case is still being built. 545 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,320 Speaker 1: Here's the tip line toll free eight eight eight five 546 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:36,399 Speaker 1: four zero eight four seven seven repeat eight eight eight 547 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 1: five four zero eight four seven seven. This case has 548 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,760 Speaker 1: got to be fleshed out. There's got to be more 549 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:51,680 Speaker 1: than DNA to present to a jury. Eyewitnesses, someone that 550 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 1: knew him before leading up to the murder of this 551 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 1: mother of five. Where did he go when he left 552 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 1: that trail? What did he do with his clothing? Where 553 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:07,800 Speaker 1: did he wash his clothes? Where was he living? These 554 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 1: and other facts are very very important. Did he have 555 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 1: scratches to his face, his neck, his arms? What can 556 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 1: we find out? We've all seen cases that are strictly 557 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 1: DNA cases that have been eviscerated by a good defense attorney. 558 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 1: That cannot happen in this case, that cannot happen in 559 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 1: this case, I want to go to special guests joining 560 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 1: us in addition to Rachel's mother, it's Randolph Rice, high 561 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 1: profile lawyer who is helping the Moran family through this. Randolph, 562 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: thank you for being with us. It's the fingerprint nature 563 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:56,440 Speaker 1: of the crimes, the similarities. In both cases, he lie 564 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 1: in wait for the right moment. In both cases, he 565 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 1: had tacked a female. In both cases, he's wearing the 566 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 1: same thing. In both cases, there was physical brutality. In 567 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 1: both cases, he makes off casually. He walked out of 568 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,480 Speaker 1: that house like he owned it. And I guarantee you 569 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 1: he did the same thing in Rachel's murder. The similarities 570 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 1: of these cases, and there's going to be more. I 571 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 1: just wonder if the case in El Salvador is as 572 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,479 Speaker 1: similar and that can be brought in at trial as 573 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:32,879 Speaker 1: a similar transaction. I mean, if we're going to go, 574 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 1: Randolph Rice, let's go all the way. 575 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 9: Now. 576 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:39,319 Speaker 13: You're right, and it's you as a former prosecutor and 577 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:40,919 Speaker 13: back in the day when I had a little less 578 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 13: gray hair, I remember prepping for these types of cases. 579 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:45,399 Speaker 10: And you're right. 580 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:49,760 Speaker 13: You have got to put together a timeline of where 581 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 13: he was leading up to this and where he was 582 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 13: after because there could be patterns, there could be similarities. 583 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,720 Speaker 1: Bombshell. In the case of a El Solvadorian man charged 584 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 1: and the murder of mom of five, Rachel Mooren, a 585 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:09,280 Speaker 1: delay a delay has been announced in a court of law. 586 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 1: Why this case is one of the most brutal attacks 587 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:18,760 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. I'm just wondering how you're getting through 588 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:23,040 Speaker 1: each day. How do you put your head on the pillow, 589 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:26,879 Speaker 1: how do you make yourself fall asleep when you wake 590 00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:31,399 Speaker 1: up in the morning, What makes you get out of bed? 591 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 2: Actually I haven't really slept at all in the last 592 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 2: ten months, because you just you think about Rachel's life, 593 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:46,280 Speaker 2: You think about all the details before she was murdered, 594 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 2: and you think, is there any any little detail that 595 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:55,839 Speaker 2: I missed that could help in some way? And so 596 00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 2: up until the suspect was apprehended, that's the way my 597 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:04,240 Speaker 2: days were like, literally day and night. Is there anything 598 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 2: that I've missed in her life that could have been 599 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 2: helpful in finding the suspect? And now that they have 600 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:21,760 Speaker 2: apprehended him, there is now a sense of relief, where before, 601 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,240 Speaker 2: to be honest, I was afraid to go to sleep 602 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 2: at night. Not that I look like my daughter anyway, 603 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,240 Speaker 2: but I was just as a woman. I just felt afraid, 604 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 2: and I know our community did as well, especially the women, 605 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 2: and so we've feel a sigh of relief, but now 606 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:51,440 Speaker 2: it's still feeling exhausted and thinking what more can I 607 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 2: do to help my daughter on this side of the investigation. 608 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 2: Is there is there anything that law enforcement might need 609 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:08,840 Speaker 2: from me that would be of help. But I think 610 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 2: the most important thing is just letting people know that 611 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:17,760 Speaker 2: if you've seen this person, have any interaction with him 612 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 2: in any way over the past year, to contact our 613 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 2: local law enforcement, the sheriff department, so that they can 614 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 2: put the last couple of puzzle pieces together to make 615 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 2: this a very solid and concise case. I'm sure that 616 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 2: it's going that it's very well put together now. I 617 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:48,320 Speaker 2: just don't want anything left undone. I hope that answers 618 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:48,800 Speaker 2: your question. 619 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:53,920 Speaker 1: It does? It does chrism Donald joining me veteran law enforcement. 620 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about what Patty Rachel Moren's mom is just saying. 621 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 1: Know there are going to be other crimes to connect 622 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 1: him to, but I want to focus right now on 623 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 1: the prosecution in the Rachel Moren murder, and we need 624 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: to fill in all the blanks leading up to and 625 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,799 Speaker 1: after the time of Rachel's murder and attack. The best way, 626 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:20,239 Speaker 1: of course is DNA, and his DNA has already been 627 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 1: entered into the National DNA Data Bank. But there is 628 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 1: also the fingerprint data bank where he may not have 629 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 1: left DNA or the DNA may not have been preserved. 630 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 1: There's a possibility of a fingerprint match. Offer instance, a 631 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 1: burglary that turned into an aggravated assault or rate, a 632 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,919 Speaker 1: fingerprint on a car, a fingerprint anywhere that I can 633 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:50,800 Speaker 1: connect him to a crime, and also a digital fingerprint. Okay, 634 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:58,240 Speaker 1: this guy is, as we say now, a migrant, that's 635 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:02,239 Speaker 1: what we're saying. Nobody is saying illegal alien apparently, so 636 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 1: we're not going to track him through his credit card 637 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 1: or his Social Security number. That's not happening. But I 638 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:13,440 Speaker 1: guarantee you this. I guarantee you he had a top 639 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 1: of the line iPhone or Android. Okay, this guy is 640 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: involved with a gang. He is in a gang notorious 641 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 1: for crime. I'm sure you prosecuted gang cases I did. 642 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 1: They're like a pack of animals. Human life means nothing 643 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,359 Speaker 1: to them, and I guarantee you he was tricked out 644 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:42,759 Speaker 1: with the best phone to keep in touch with his 645 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:46,399 Speaker 1: gang buddies. All right, that's a way to trace him 646 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 1: where he has been, what he has been doing. Yes, No, 647 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 1: you are. 648 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:55,759 Speaker 6: One hundred percent right, Nanti that if this guy, you know, 649 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 6: we first of all, we have some good information here. 650 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:03,239 Speaker 6: Number one, he committed this ferocious crime in El Salvador 651 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:07,760 Speaker 6: and then at some point he must have crossed into 652 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:11,239 Speaker 6: this country. The question is how many times and did 653 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 6: they ever have contact with him? And if so, how 654 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 6: does he make it to la And that gang connection 655 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 6: that you're talking about is probably the most logical connection 656 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:26,320 Speaker 6: to this thing, because that neighborhood where that first attack 657 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:30,719 Speaker 6: occurred is in the seventy seventh division of LAPD. That 658 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 6: is one rough neighborhood. Let me tell you, I've been 659 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 6: there and we've served many search warrants there. And so 660 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:42,800 Speaker 6: how does he blend into that circumstance and that gang 661 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 6: affiliation is probably the most likely that would make him 662 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 6: a chameleon within that environment, and why he was hidden 663 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:52,800 Speaker 6: for as long as he has while on the run. 664 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 1: When you walk through the park and you see a 665 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 1: little squirrel or ra run across your path. Is your 666 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:07,959 Speaker 1: instinct to pounce upon it, grab it and bite its 667 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:11,799 Speaker 1: throat out. No, your instinct may be to pet it 668 00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:16,759 Speaker 1: or try to throw it a treat. This guy is 669 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:22,960 Speaker 1: not like you. This guy's instinct is to attack. He's 670 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 1: crossed the border three times that I know of in 671 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:31,120 Speaker 1: two months.
