0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.720
<v Speaker 1>It was May nineteenth, nineteen eighty three, in Springfield, Oregon.

0:00:04.240 --> 0:00:07.200
<v Speaker 1>In the middle of an otherwise peaceful, cool spring night,

0:00:07.720 --> 0:00:11.639
<v Speaker 1>A car arrived at Mackenzie Wilhemette Hospital. Diane Downs and

0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:15.360
<v Speaker 1>her three children had been shot. Cheryl seven was dead,

0:00:15.560 --> 0:00:19.160
<v Speaker 1>and Danny three and Christy eight had life threatening injuries.

0:00:19.760 --> 0:00:24.799
<v Speaker 1>A year later, Diane herself was found guilty for the shootings.

0:00:26.079 --> 0:00:29.639
<v Speaker 2>In the eighties, this was a shocking headline story of

0:00:29.720 --> 0:00:35.480
<v Speaker 2>fatal attraction. Authorities believed Diane's infatuation with a married man

0:00:35.600 --> 0:00:37.920
<v Speaker 2>who said he had no interest in being a father

0:00:38.040 --> 0:00:42.400
<v Speaker 2>to anyone's children was the possible motive behind her shooting

0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:46.080
<v Speaker 2>her three kids. One year later, at her trial, she

0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:49.600
<v Speaker 2>was pregnant. That child was Becky Babcock.

0:00:50.760 --> 0:00:53.360
<v Speaker 3>So I was eleven and still needed a babysitter. It

0:00:53.440 --> 0:00:56.240
<v Speaker 3>was the same babysitter that I'd had since I was very,

0:00:56.320 --> 0:00:59.560
<v Speaker 3>very young. I can remember the moment like it was yesterday,

0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:02.520
<v Speaker 3>which is so weird. I can't remember exactly what was said,

0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:05.760
<v Speaker 3>but I remember standing at the top of the stairs.

0:01:06.160 --> 0:01:08.800
<v Speaker 3>I was in the doorway of my bedroom, she was

0:01:08.800 --> 0:01:13.360
<v Speaker 3>in the hallway, and I just thought, I'm going to

0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:15.720
<v Speaker 3>ask I'm going to find the answers that I want.

0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:18.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm just not going to stop. And I know who

0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:21.840
<v Speaker 3>my biological mother was. I talked to the babysitter and

0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:24.720
<v Speaker 3>made it sound like I already knew. She had said, oh,

0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 3>so you know Diane Downs. And that was at that

0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:29.160
<v Speaker 3>point how I had a name.

0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:33.560
<v Speaker 2>After Becky learned her mother's identity as a teen, it

0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:37.480
<v Speaker 2>began to affect her life. My name is Melissa Moore.

0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:42.440
<v Speaker 2>My father was Keith Jesperson, a serial murderer known as a.

0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:43.440
<v Speaker 1>Happy Face Killer.

0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:47.800
<v Speaker 2>After reckoning with my father's past and my own struggles

0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:51.080
<v Speaker 2>of living in his dark legacy, I decided to reach

0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:52.120
<v Speaker 2>out to others like me.

0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:58.120
<v Speaker 4>It's almost like I'm across the table from Diane Downs.

0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:02.920
<v Speaker 4>I mean it's a different age, it's a different demeanor,

0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 4>but there are some similarities that are clearly there. And

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:11.600
<v Speaker 4>so when I called and Rule in Seattle and I.

0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:15.040
<v Speaker 5>Just said, you know, I think I've met Diane Down's child,

0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:17.919
<v Speaker 5>the one she gave birth to during the trial, she says, Oh,

0:02:18.080 --> 0:02:22.960
<v Speaker 5>I will definitely get a DNA test because I've been

0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:25.679
<v Speaker 5>approached by all kinds of people who say they were

0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:29.720
<v Speaker 5>the baby of Diane Downs and I said, Oh, and

0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:32.840
<v Speaker 5>this is the right person.

0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:35.280
<v Speaker 4>I don't need a DNA test. I can see it.

0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:38.080
<v Speaker 1>I've talked to her for years.

0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:40.440
<v Speaker 2>Becky has tried to come to terms with who her

0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:43.880
<v Speaker 2>mother is, but one mystery has haunted her.

0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:46.360
<v Speaker 1>Who is her biological father?

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:50.359
<v Speaker 2>When I watched the twenty twenty piece where Becky meets

0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:54.560
<v Speaker 2>and she is and who is my father? And Anne says,

0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:57.359
<v Speaker 2>I can't tell you. She's what I call it Jack

0:02:57.440 --> 0:03:03.120
<v Speaker 2>cult match? Did you Findye's biological father? Join me as

0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:06.600
<v Speaker 2>we search for the answer and explore Becky's and her
