1
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 1: I Nancy Grace, and this is Crime Stories with Nancy Grace,

2
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 1: and I want to thank you for being with us.

3
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: So many times people ask me why am I so

4
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:21,319
Speaker 1: single mindedly focused on fighting crime? Who wouldn't be You know,

5
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: it's so easy for us to think it will never

6
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: happen to me, it will never happen to my family.

7
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: That's just a story on TV. That's not true, because

8
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:34,560
Speaker 1: it did happen to me. I grew up in a

9
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 1: world with no crime. I didn't even know anything about crime,

10
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,919
Speaker 1: out basically in the middle of nowhere, where as far

11
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: as the eye could see were tall pine trees and

12
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: soybean fields, and we all came home in the afternoon

13
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,959
Speaker 1: to the sound of the chimes in the church steeple.

14
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: I went away to college and fell in love, and

15
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: shortly before our wedding, my fiancee was murdered. It shattered

16
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: my world and everything I understood to be true. After

17
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: that long, dark struggle, I finally re emerged to go

18
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 1: to law school and become a felony prosecutor and finally

19
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: felt like a bird out of a cage. Every day

20
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: is a mission. Every day is a chance to stop

21
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: crime and to keep one more person safe. Won't you

22
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: join me
