00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 3: baby in western Tennessee, speaking out. Drummond was arrested earlier

00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 3: this month in Jackson, approximately seventy five miles from Lake County,

48
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,399

00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 3: Adriana Williams, James Matthew Wilson, Courtney Rose, and their teenage

51
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:26,040

53
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 3: car seat on the lawn of a stranger's home in

54
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 3: Dyer County. Investigators have revealed that Drummond had a connection

55
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 3: to the victims as he was dating Rose's sister. He

56
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 3: evaded capture for nearly a week, drawing national attention and

57
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 3: instilling fear in the communities of northwest Tennessee. In an

58
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 3: interview with news Channel five, Drummond claimed he was working

59
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 3: as a confidential informant after being approached by prosecutors. He

60
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 3: asserts that he assisted law enforcement, including the FBI, in

61
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 3: undercover operations targeting drug trafficking into jails and prisons, leading

62
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 3: to the arresk of dealers, corrupt law enforcement officials, and

63
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 3: gang leaders. Drummond acknowledged his previous association with the Vice

64
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 3: Lord's gang from a prior incarceration. He stated that he

65
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 3: had recently learned that his undercover status had been compromised,

66
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 3: prompting him to flee after the murders. While Drummond confessed

67
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,919
Speaker 3: to a running away out of fear, he maintains his

68
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 3: innocence regarding the killings, insisting he had no motive to

69
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 3: harm the victims, whom he regarded as family. However, he

70
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 3: did indicate, without further clarification, that he was somehow involved

71
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 3: in the incident. When questioned about the circumstances surrounding the

72
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 3: murders and the baby's connection to the case, Drummond was

73
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 3: not prepared to provide answers. Following Drummond's remarks, NBC reached

74
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 3: out to Lake County District Attorney Danny Goodman Junior, who

75
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 3: was already aware of the conversation. Al jail phone calls

76
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 3: are recorded and have been added to the criminal case file.

77
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 3: The district attorney refrained from commenting specifically on Drummond's statements.

78
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 3: He did express confidence that Drummond was responsible for the

79
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 3: four debts and identified a clear motive behind his actions.
