What is she talking about. Well, the 93 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: way the way I see it is most of the 94 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: time when kids are abducted from a home, usually has 95 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: involved a parent or someone close to the home. And 96 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, she didn't stress the point of 97 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: the strangers or the people that were suspicious. She just 98 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 1: kept going back to he's missing, he's missing. And it 99 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: was like the nine one one dispatcher was the one 100 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: that put that in her mind.

A little boy, five year 105 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: old Lucas seemingly goes missing, jeer and at wearing nothing 106 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: but a pull up. Take a listen to Kansas Police 107 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: officer Charlie Davidson. Still missing. It's five year old Lucas Fernandez. 108 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: Lucas was last seen wearing black sweats, white socks, and 109 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 1: a gray shirt with a bear on it. Our thoughts 110 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,439 Speaker 1: and prayers remain with Lucas and Lucas's family as we 111 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: are diligently investigating the situation. On Friday, February seventeenth, that 112 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: approximately six to fifteen officers were dispatched to a lost 113 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: juvenile call at a residence and a six hundred block 114 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: of South Edgemore. When they arrived, they made contact with 115 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 1: a twenty six year old female who was the stepmother 116 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: of Lucas. She reported to officers that she last saw 117 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: Lucas in his bedroom at approximately three pm. Prior to 118 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 1: her showering and falling asleep. Officers and K nine units 119 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: have deology lately checked the home and the neighborhood with 120 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: no luck of locating Lucas at this time. Guys, you 121 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: were hearing them, Police Officer Charlie Davidson speaking. Do I 122 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: have this wrong, David Marshburn, because I thought she said 123 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: in the beginning he was wearing a pull up, But 124 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: now I'm hearing black sweats, white socks, a great shirt 125 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: with a bear on it. That that's correct. And if 126 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: you also catch that, you know she first stated that 127 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 1: she woke up from a long nap and then it 128 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: changed to she took a really quick shower. You know, 129 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:59,319 Speaker 1: m roy Layton, you have children, right I do. I 130 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: know what my children have on right now. I even 131 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 1: know what color their underwear is because I took it 132 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: out for them the night before. I know what color 133 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:15,599 Speaker 1: their socks are. Everything. I know. It sounds like a 134 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: small thing, but to have the outfit's so drastically different, 135 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: and my mind is a big thing. From a pull 136 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 1: up to black sweats with a gray sweatshirt, a gray 137 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: shirt with a bear on in white socks. That's a 138 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: big difference choice. Lighten. Imagine the chemical reaction going on 139 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 1: in somebody's brain when they realize that their child is 140 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 1: missing and they are making that call to nine one one, 141 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: and they are being asked all sorts of questions when 142 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: all they can think about is, oh, my God, where 143 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: is my child? I want my child back? And the 144 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,719 Speaker 1: nine one one operator doing a diligent job, trying to 145 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: do their job and gather as many facts as they 146 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,479 Speaker 1: can and get as much information as they can. Initially, 147 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 1: there's no textbook for the way that a person is 148 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: supposed to react. I wasn't waiting for that, Troy. You 149 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: remind me so much of Defense Attorney Mark Garaghos, because 150 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: when he was defending Scott Peterson and I was talking 151 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: about Peterson's affair with his mistress Amber Fry, he said, 152 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: there's no textbook for grief, you know. I know he 153 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: made all those zone calls to Amber, there were all lies, 154 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 1: but there's no textbook for grief. Now you're saying there's 155 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 1: no playbook. You know, Well, my son John David went 156 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: missing for about five minutes, and I chys r us. 157 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: The first thing I yelled out it's missing. I immediately said, 158 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: he's wearing flaid shorts and blue crocs. I didn't forget 159 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: what he was wearing. So I hear what you're saying, Troy, 160 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: and I respect you and what you do for a living, 161 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,119 Speaker 1: trying to make the best out of a really bad situation. 162 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 1: But in this case, I want you to hear now 163 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: what the father of Lucas tells me. Listen. I thought 164 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: that maybe he had wandered off. You know. I got 165 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: the phone call when I was working in New Mexico, 166 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: and I immediately went into shock, especially when I spoke 167 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,079 Speaker 1: with police officers and they said that they were at 168 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 1: my residence and performing at least a neighborhood search in 169 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: the immediate times after, and that they still hadn't found him. 170 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 1: I was really, really, really concerned, because he doesn't you know, 171 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: he's not the type of boy that wanders off or 172 00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: does anything without asking permission. So I knew something really 173 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: was wrong, you know, Doctor Sherry Schwartz, forensic psychologist and 174 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: author of Psychology of Criminal Behavior. Doctor Schwartz, what the 175 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 1: father is telling me. He's very significant because if someone 176 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: told me that John, David or Lucy just left the 177 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: house I wouldn't believe that, because they've never in thirteen years, 178 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 1: even as little children, done that. So it's contrary to 179 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: everything I know about them. I would not believe that. 180 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: So when you hear the fathers say in five years, 181 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: he's never been the type to just leave the house, 182 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: that means a lot to me. That's a very significant 183 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: evidence evidence of behavior. I agree with you, Nancy. This 184 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: is a father who knows his son and this is 185 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: his instinct reaction rights his intuition is telling him something 186 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: bad happened here, because my son doesn't just wander off. 187 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: And these are the cues that we need to pay 188 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: attention to. To Chrissy MISSOURIK joining me Emmy Award winning 189 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: investigative reporter, where is Lucas extensive searches involving over one 190 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: hundred officers, dogs, helicopters, searches conducted in parks, streams, and 191 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: just search for this five year old little boy, Christy MISSOURIK. 192 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: Both cops in the community scoured everything when door to 193 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: door got surveillance video, started tracking cell phones of both 194 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: Emily Glass, the boy's father, and family members.

And I told her that the 205 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: only way I could is if you know, the dad 206 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: will call me. And sure enough he called me right 207 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: away and asked me what I come up there and help, 208 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: and I told him I would. And I told him 209 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: right out in front that there's two people I'm looking 210 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: at him and Emily and based off of what I 211 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: know from the beginning of what news Mea was saying. 212 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: And he said, that's okay, and he agreed to meet 213 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: with me.

Clime Stories with Nancy Grace. Guys, 224 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 1: we are talking about the disappearance of a little five 225 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: year old boy. And joining me right now is doctor 226 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,159 Speaker 1: Kendall Crowns, a Deputy Chief Medical exam R Travis County, Texas. 227 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 1: That's Austin. And although we typically think the deputy chief 228 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: Medical examiners dealing with just dead bodies, he's been exposed 229 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: to a lot of nine one one calls. Jump in, 230 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: doctor Crowns. So yeah, over the years, I've had to 231 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:21,880 Speaker 1: listen to nine one one calls, particularly at court when 232 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: they play the tapes back of the individuals who may 233 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: have killed their own child. And you know, you pick 234 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: up on a couple of things when you listen to them. 235 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: So listening to this one, it was fascinating their story. 236 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: Change number one, that's always a red flag. And then 237 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 1: the fact that she's the stepmother. Is another red flag too, 238 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: is I've noticed that, you know, individuals that don't have 239 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: a vested interest in the child that isn't their blood, 240 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: sometimes they are often responsible for their disappearance or demise. 241 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 1: So when I heard that in the nine one one call, 242 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: it's yes, she does sound upset, she does sound like 243 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: she's grieving. But to me, it was a very suspicious, 244 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: so to say. Also, I grew up in the Witchita area. 245 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: I know the area where the child disappeared from, and 246 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: it's you know, a lot of people think Kansas is 247 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: just some rural farmland with wheat fields, but actually in 248 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 1: that area it's quite a bit of houses and for 249 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: a kid to just wander off and not be seen 250 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: by other members of the community is extremely interesting. It 251 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: was very suspicious. You were hearing doctor Kendall Crowns joining 252 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 1: so out of Travis County, Texas.

David, let me 272 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: just take that in for a moment. You're looking for 273 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: a five year old little boy under a bridge. It's 274 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 1: hard for a mother to take in what you just said, 275 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: looking for your child up under a bridge. How did 276 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: you get her, Emily Glass into the car to go 277 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: look for Lucas?

After 279 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,479 Speaker 1: I got done talking to the father for ten minutes, 280 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 1: I said, I don't need to talk to you anymore. 281 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 1: I need to talk to Emily. So he takes me 282 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: to Emily and asked her to talk to me for 283 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: thirty minutes. I'm sitting there talking to her and she's 284 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: to nine to nine to nine. So I moved forward 285 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: into saying, you know, basically giving her an out that 286 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: possibly there was something that happened prior to that caused 287 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 1: Luca systemise and maybe she just got scared. In other words, 288 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: you gave her the choice to say he died as 289 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: she did have anything to do with it, and then 290 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: she just hid his body. You gave her that window, yes, ma'am. 291 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: And did you believe that she did believe as a 292 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: matter of fact, take a listen to David Marshburn speaking 293 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: to Emily Glass I cut twenty four. I don't know 294 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: what what lucas he when he passed away, was on 295 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 1: his back? Did he throw up? He choked on his 296 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: own vomit? Did? Um? Was he just did in his 297 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,400 Speaker 1: bed the old couch. Uh, he was on the bed 298 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: there on the couch on his side or on his back, 299 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: on his back, So did he say he vomited and vomit? 300 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: He didn't, So he just died. That was a concussion 301 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 1: and it's okay, So okay, you freaked out, I'm telling you. 302 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 1: So is that how you lured her into showing you 303 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: where the body was? David, Yes, ma'am. It goes back 304 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 1: to the nun one one call, because the details are 305 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 1: you know, at first he just like to say he's 306 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: in his pool up. Well, then he's clothed, and it 307 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: could possibly been he threw up on himself or threw 308 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: up on her, and she washed him and then clothed 309 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: him and then got rid of him. Yeah, and little 310 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: green men from ours could have been down and taken 311 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: him up for a probe. But that's not what happened. 312 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: She murdered five year old Lucas. So as you are 313 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 1: cajoling her, did you know in your mind she murdered him, yes, ma'am. 314 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: So what's going through your mind as you're driving around 315 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: these back roads with Emily Glass truly the evil step mom, 316 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: trying to keep her playcated, and so she'll keep talking. 317 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: What is going through your mind? David? Justice for this 318 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: little boy because I lived that kind of lifestyle when 319 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: I was young. I was in a abused home and 320 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 1: had you know, our mother's boyfriends beat on us and stuff, 321 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 1: and all I can think about is every hit that 322 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 1: we were hit with that he did the same to him. 323 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 1: What was her demeanor in the car with you, pretty 324 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: much self absorbed. It's what's going to happen to me. 325 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 1: She's more upset about the outcome, not so much as him, 326 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: because in her mind where she placed him was beautiful 327 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: and a nice setting, sort of like a great burial. David, 328 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: you're the only one that has really spent time with 329 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: this murder mom. Why did she do it? Well? Another 330 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 1: thing is she had another child, and I believe her 331 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: jealousy of why she couldn't have her boys that he 332 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: could have his, and now I'm taking care of him. Well, 333 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 1: I don't want that life anymore. I want it just 334 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: with me and my husband and our child together. Take 335 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 1: a listen to our cut twenty six. I'm just sorry. 336 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. I kill It's okay. I think you 337 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: didn't know her hair is? Where's the door? I did 338 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: a little. It's so wrong. I didn't wrong. You are 339 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 1: hearing the truly evil stepmother I murder mom stating I 340 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: did Lucas so wrong, I did him wrong. Crime Stories 341 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 1: with Nancy Grace, What happened to Lucas Hernandez and the 342 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: hand ends of evil stepmother murder Mom Emily Glass to 343 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: David Marshburne, did she ever divulge how she really murdered 344 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 1: this five year old little boy? No, ma'am. I kept 345 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 1: with the same program of the pount that I gave 346 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 1: her through. I know it's just marsha and against her, 347 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: but you want to keep her on that same level 348 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 1: until law enforcement get there. And you know, as far 349 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 1: as her mentality at that time, you know, the the 350 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: forensic psychologist is going to be a better option on 351 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: what's going through her mind. And I can just see 352 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 1: what physically, but as far as readinger, that would be 353 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: more for the psychologist. You know, let's go to you, 354 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: doctor Sherry Schwartz, forensic psychologists specializing in criminal pathology. Doctor Sherry. 355 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 1: A lot has made of the fact that the father 356 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 1: traveled a lot for work and she Emily Glass stayed 357 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 1: home and took care of his son from another woman. 358 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: Lucas Hernandez along with her own child, a little girl, 359 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: but her little girl was fed and taking care of 360 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 1: and petted and doted upon, but not Lucas. Why that's 361 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: actually more common than we care to discuss, Nancy that 362 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: step children. I'm not sure of the exact statistic, but 363 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: there are statistics out there that show that step children 364 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: are significantly more likely to come to some harm in 365 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: a home where their primary caretaker is a stepparent or 366 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: where there's a stepparent in the home. So that's not 367 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: entirely uncommon. It's incredibly horrible and unfortunate, but not at 368 00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: all uncommon, sadly, And you know, to David's point about 369 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: what was going through her mind, the only thing that 370 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: was going through her mind from what I'm hearing, is 371 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 1: what about me herself. She's not saying we need to 372 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: find Lucas. She's not saying, poor Lucas. How you know 373 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: he's out here somewhere. I can't sleep at night because 374 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: I'm so worried about Lucas. What she's saying is I 375 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: can't do jail and I'm this horrible person, which she 376 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: that's not guilt. We shouldn't mistake that for gilt in 377 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 1: this context. What that is or guilty conscience. I should say, 378 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: what that is is that she's using self pity, this 379 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: feigned self pity to manipulate the emotions of David and 380 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: whoever else is listening. Pour me, poor me, poor me. 381 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: It's all about me, guys, What was going through her mind? 382 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: To take a listen to our cut thirty. This is 383 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: Lucas's father, Jonathan speaking to me. No, I did not. 384 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: In the three years that I've known her and seen 385 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: them interact, and you know she's she was always good 386 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 1: with him. Did you guys have a stormy relationship? Did 387 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: you argue about you being out of town? It would 388 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: come up? I mean it was it was hard. You know, 389 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: it's hard like that, especially you know, for the kids, 390 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: but also for her. And I mean it was hard 391 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: for me being gone. I didn't I didn't want to 392 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: be away from my family for three weeks at a time. 393 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know if the name Julie Shinneker 394 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: rings a Belle Troy Layton defends attorney out of la 395 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: Julie Shinneker, or the highly educated military mom out of 396 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 1: Florida whose husband was high up in the military too, 397 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: who would be gone, Gone gone? While She raised two twins, 398 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: two children now teens at home, and she shot both 399 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 1: of them dead. One the son was coming back from 400 00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: I think it was lacrosse. The daughter was at a 401 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 1: computer working our homework and shot in the mouth. This 402 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: is a common recurring thing, children being murdered by mom's 403 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: because dad's away from home. Well, of course that's no defense, 404 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: Troye Layton. Certainly it is not a defense. And in 405 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 1: this case it is a stepmother and not a blood relationship. 406 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 1: Does that matter in your mind somehow? Absolutely not. But 407 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 1: you know, anyone that would take any kind of action 408 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: to harm any child, their own stepchild is clearly laboring 409 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: under psychological illness. Oh okay, let me understand something, Royce Layton. 410 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 1: Isn't show you have your JD, not your MD with 411 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: a specialty in psychiatry. Is that right now? I'm just 412 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: a doctor of lawn right as we all are. Once 413 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: you're going to call your doctor Slayton. But that one's 414 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: not insanity under the law against the five year old 415 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: child does not have all the people. Yeah, I agree 416 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: with that, but the reality is not having all your marbles. 417 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: It's not insanity under the law, which means you didn't 418 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 1: know right from wrong at the time of the incident, 419 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: and back to you, David Marshburne, who helped locate this 420 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 1: little child's body. She clearly knew right from wrong because 421 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: when you were talking to her, she can't be saying 422 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: I can't do jail, I can't do jail. She knew 423 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: what she did was wrong. David, tell me about the 424 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: discovery of this child's body. Well, when we were riding around, 425 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: I finally got it out of her that she put 426 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: him under a bridge, because we were riding around forever 427 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: and I would ask her about landmarks and you know 428 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: which bridge, And finally I got irritated and I said, 429 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: all right, we're just gonna stop at every bridge did 430 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: we come to, and we're gonna look under. And sure enough, 431 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: the very first bridge I come to, he's under there, 432 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 1: um and you know you could That's when she's having 433 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: a conversation with Marcia. She knew I found him, because 434 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 1: I didn't know that conversation was going on. But while 435 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: I was looking under the bridge, she knew it. Because 436 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: then she's like, I can't do jail. Oh my god, 437 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: you know what have I done? And Marcia's just reassuring 438 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: her that everything's gonna be okay, or we're gonna make 439 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 1: it okay. Did you yourself find the body, Yes, ma'am, 440 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 1: I did well. At first, I couldn't make out what 441 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 1: it is, but when I got up to it, I 442 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 1: realized that there was a bunch of branches he was hidden. 443 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: So you know, that's to me, that's showing guilt already 444 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: because you're trying to hide it. You know, it's one 445 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: thing to go put it somewhere someone can find him 446 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: and then he can get a proper burial, but this 447 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 1: you actually went to the extent of gathering stuff to 448 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: put on top of him to make sure no one 449 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 1: Discoversy to doctor Kendall Crown's Deputy Chief Medical Examiner, Travis County, Texas, 450 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 1: no cause of death was ever determined. Why Well, so, 451 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: the issue is the child is decomposed, and to the 452 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 1: extent of decomposition, it's difficult to see if there's like 453 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: internal damage, like the organs have either decomposed to the 454 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: point you can't really evaluate them, or they've been scavenged 455 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 1: by maggots or other predators that might be in the area, 456 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 1: or other scavengers that might be in the area that 457 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,439 Speaker 1: leaves you with the problem is you can't quite make 458 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: out what may or may not have happened. The other 459 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,800 Speaker 1: thing is is often in these child abuse cases like this, 460 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: is they're smothered little pillow with hand or something along 461 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 1: those lines. And because of how the act of smothering 462 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 1: leaves very little findings on a child, you might, if 463 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: you're lucky, find a like breezing on the inner surface 464 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: of the lip because of the hard pressure against the teeth, 465 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: but you rarely find that. So what happens is in 466 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 1: the smothering cases is there's actually no findings. So because 467 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,919 Speaker 1: of that, the decomposition, the fact that the kid could 468 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 1: have been smothered, it's hard to say what exactly happened. 469 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: So that leaves the medical examiner with the only option 470 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: of calling it undetermined, even though more than likely the 471 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: child was murdered in some way. Be of David Marshburne. David, 472 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: what went through your mind when you saw that child's 473 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 1: remains covered up under a bridge? Well, you know, I 474 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 1: trying to put my personal feelings into it anymore, because 475 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: you know, the very first case of solid I really 476 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: wanted my emotions got to me and I could have 477 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: done something really bad. So I try to leave my 478 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: emotions out of it. But you know, it's horrid with 479 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: a child, especially when you're sitting there and you can 480 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: see his face.
