But 5 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: who would have predicted that? All the while the killer 6 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 1: was right under everybody's knows, literally in the center of town. 7 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I see, Grace.

First of all, take a listen to 10 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: our friends at w THR. We know Richard Alan worked 11 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: as a licensed pharmacy tech at this CVS here in Delphi, 12 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: but many continue to ask and wonder how a man 13 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: now charged with two counts of murder managed to stay 14 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: under the radar in a town of about three thousand people. 15 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: Those who live in Delphi are still trying to cope 16 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: with news that Richard Allen is the man police say 17 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: murdered Abby Williams and Libby German. I mean the da 18 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: after Halloween, but it's a little eerie and tense in 19 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: downtown Delphi on the Square, businesses like the Office Tavern 20 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: put up a new sign on their door reading no 21 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: media allowed. They weren't the only ones. Country Hair also 22 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,279 Speaker 1: had a sign off camera. One business owner to thirteen News, 23 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: the community is still in shock, even the girl's families 24 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: grappling with the reality that their girls and murderer, brutal murderer. Remember, 25 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: according to one released Affi David, there were copious amounts 26 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: of blood at the same mini, speculating these two little girls, 27 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: Libyan Abbey had their throats slit. We don't know that yet, 28 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,519 Speaker 1: but that is the conjecture of experts. They are grappling 29 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: with the reality that the killer was right under their nose. 30 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: Take a listen Fox fifty nine. They were also facing 31 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: a harsh reality that Richard Allen was living amongst them 32 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 1: the whole time. I don't know the gentleman personally at all, 33 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: you know, so I probably seen him, but you know, 34 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: it's a small county, you know, but definitely don't. I 35 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: don't know any One of the most chilling revelations was 36 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: that Becky said Alan, who worked at a local CBS, 37 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: had printed off pictures for the girls's funeral, leaving the 38 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: family to wonder how did nobody know? When the family 39 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: says we didn't know him that's like you don't know 40 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:57,239 Speaker 1: your maleman.

You don't know the neighbor three doors down, 43 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 1: but you do. Again, thank you for being with us 44 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: as we are struggling with the reality that a double killer, 45 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: according to police, was right there saying good morning, How 46 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: can I help you every single day to practicularly everybody 47 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: in town.

Well, you know, I know 54 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: our pharmacists because the twins are so sick when they 55 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: were little. We were in there all the time and 56 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: owe them their families through pictures everybody that works there. 57 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: You get to know your pharmacists, and this local pharmacy 58 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: tech seemingly dealt with everybody in town.

Thank you for 61 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: being with us. I guess the town is stunned right 62 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 1: now because this has been going on over five years 63 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: and every day, I mean, for Pete's sake. And one 64 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: picture he's had a bar who was it, J and 65 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:28,559 Speaker 1: HC and S barn grill. He's sitting right there living 66 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 1: it up, and right behind him on the wall is 67 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: his composite. Yeah. I mean people were just when we 68 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,600 Speaker 1: heard about it, we saw this picture, we saw who 69 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: he was. People were stunned. Five and a half years, 70 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,559 Speaker 1: they've been investigating this and this guy has been living 71 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: amongst them the whole time. He's been filling their prescriptions. 72 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 1: They're printing off photos format at CBS, and nobody saw anything. 73 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: I think that's sort of what the family was saying 74 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: there and what a whole lot of people have told 75 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: me is really nobody saw this guy. Nobody looked at 76 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: the discussion thought maybe it was him or anything like that. 77 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it was just sort of really shocking. We 78 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: don't know how police got to him at this point 79 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 1: because all those documents are sealed, but yeah, stunning. Yeah, 80 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: I've got more on that Max Lewis and the search 81 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 1: warrant that was executed on his home a few days 82 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: before his arrest. I'm going to get into that, but 83 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: right now, the shot factor, and I'll tell you what 84 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: I think. And this is from having handle cases where 85 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: the killer was right there in the community the whole time. Yeah, 86 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,679 Speaker 1: we all looked at the possibility it was a transient, 87 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: but Cheryl mccollumb, you and I agreed on day one 88 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: this was no transient. Right day one, Q and I 89 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: said it, and we never wavered from it. We even 90 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: said he would be within five miles and there Dance, 91 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: I got to Delfy and we saw where the bridge was. 92 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: I mean that to me, I was like, he's even 93 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: closer than I think. And remember the guy the catfisher 94 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: was kea conclined gosh I'm not known now know their 95 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:05,239 Speaker 1: names by heart. Keegan Klein was a curve, pasty looking dude, 96 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: middle age. I think he is anyway. Using a screenshot 97 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: Anthony shots of adjustin Bieber looked alone trying to lure 98 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: young girls. And he was talking to them just a 99 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: day or two before and maybe the day of. But 100 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: he lives like thirty sixty miles away and you and 101 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: I thought, yeah, that's tempting, it's really tempting. But the 102 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: distance didn't fit to us, because who would know to 103 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: go to that dirt road, to that particular trail, to 104 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: that trestle bridge, and then down to a bottleneck take 105 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: forced the girls down to where they really couldn't get 106 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: away and murder them, and I think rape them first 107 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: had to be a local. It had to be a 108 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: local with intimate knowledge. Because even where they crossed the creek, 109 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: that's where the creek was shallow. Other parts of it 110 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: are waist deep. This person knew. Hold on, wait a minute, 111 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: I'm trying to drink him. What you're saying. Parts of 112 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: the creek shallow, other part's waist deep. And that factored 113 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: into it. It absolutely did. Why are you saying that? 114 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: Because again, this person would have to know that. If 115 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: you and I just were visiting that area, we wouldn't 116 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: know where to cross that creek. And again, waist high 117 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: chess high in some places if it's been raining. But 118 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: he knew right word across where it was less than 119 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: ankle deep. And Max Lewis Fox fifty nine joining us, 120 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: He's been all over this, Max Lewis, The thing is, 121 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: the killer wouldn't know and you've been to that Chelsea 122 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: Bridge a million times. The killer would have to know 123 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: that there were other people that were in that I'm 124 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: going to call it a park, it's more like a 125 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,119 Speaker 1: hiking area, and where he killed them. Other people would 126 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: not be able to see what was going on, even 127 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: though they could be walking around in the hiking area. Yeah, 128 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: and you know, yeah, this is a very well traveled area, 129 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: so I mean, it's hard to believe that nobody would 130 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: have seen them. That maybe where the sort of you 131 00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: remember that chilling audio recording that down the hill. You know, 132 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: we don't necessarily know, you know, if he is the 133 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: bridge guy per se. You know, that's still they're holding 134 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: everything close to the best at this point. Okay, wait 135 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: wait wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, stop the train, Max Lewis. 136 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: Let's follow that theory to its logical conclusion, and that 137 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: would be that there were two killers, that one guy 138 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: lured them down, the so called bridge guy, and then 139 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: Richard Alan raped and murdered them. I find that hard 140 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: to believe. My mind is still open, But is that 141 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: what you're suggesting? Well, that seems to be somewhat of 142 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: the indication that we are getting at this point because 143 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 1: who read it. No, No, we're getting that from the 144 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: way they're handling this. They steal those documents, they say, 145 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: this investigation is ongoing. What more than they need? If 146 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: they have their guys, they've made it the rest. They 147 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: found a probable concept for David. What more do they need? 148 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: Why are you shaking your head? Yes? I believe jump 149 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: jump the reason it's own. First of all, Jackie Howard, 150 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 1: I do not want you on my jury ever. Forget it. 151 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: You just fall for anything. Anybody says, yeah, yeah, she's 152 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: shaking her head, yes to everything. Max Lewis says Cheryl McCollum. 153 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: Straightened out. Woman. There's a great possibility there are additional victims. 154 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: So they are going to connect every dot they possibly can. 155 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: This investigation does not end and are rest in a 156 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: great world. This is where it starts. Yeah, you know, 157 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: you really think I'm not picking on you, Max Lewis, 158 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: you're the messenger, Okay, but do you really think this 159 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: guy went from zero to one twenty mph in one day? 160 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: Because I don't even when a sports car it takes 161 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 1: a minute to heat up. So I'm not buying it. 162 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: I think what Cheryl McCollum just said is right. I 163 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: think a law enforcement are looking for other young girl victims, 164 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: were they sex assaulted, where they threatened it they feel threatened, 165 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: and for people that may have helped him cover up 166 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: this crime. Back to who is this guy? Take a 167 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: listen now to this. Before moving to Delphi, he lived 168 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: in this home with his wife and daughter. According to neighbors, 169 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 1: David Yoder lived across the street but has known Allen 170 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 1: since he was born and grew up with his dad. Yeah. 171 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: I mean I would have never thought living across the 172 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: road from him, he reserved anything. That's why we're setting 173 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: my kids to if it had been any trouble. But 174 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: after hearing Allen was arrested in charge with killing Abby 175 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: Williams and Libby German, he's now questioning if he really 176 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,599 Speaker 1: knew him. It's just hard to believe. He heck of 177 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: a nice guy, always has been. Hey him, a nice guy, 178 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 1: always has been. Well, you know what they said that 179 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: about Joseph DeAngelo, the Golden State killer, that he had 180 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: even been a cop. I believe it was in Oxford, California. 181 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 1: They said the same thing about the dog catcher, which 182 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: makes me suspicious at the get go. Who wants to 183 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 1: catch dogs and put him to death? Not me? Bt 184 00:10:55,040 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: K by torture kill. Dennis Raider, deacon at the church, freak, complete, 185 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: total freak. After he would murder people in his community 186 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 1: on his dog catching route, he would then redress them 187 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: and put makeup on them and pose them. Let that 188 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: sink in. Everybody thought he was a nice, upstanding guy too. 189 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: And of course I was going to go out on 190 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 1: a limb Scott Peterson. And yes, I know there is 191 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: a cable TV entertainment program suggesting the Scott Peterson is innocent. 192 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:32,079 Speaker 1: He's not. He's guilty. He murdered Lacy and Connor. And 193 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: you can throw all the hate at me you want to, 194 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: but that is the truth. I was in the trial, 195 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 1: were you bet? You weren't. If you believe everything somebody 196 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 1: is paid to create to convince you to get ratings, 197 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: you're barking up the wrong tree. So I'm gonna throw 198 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: Scott Peterson in there too. Good looking cause degree, great job, 199 00:11:52,760 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: beautiful home, beautiful wife. Yeah, he's a killer.

He got one sister. 262 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: Where does she live? I don't know. I lost track 263 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: of her a long time ago. I mean, and I 264 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: have rich two he uh moved away from here. I 265 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: just kind of lost track of him talking about Richard Allen, 266 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: Neighbors that actually grew up with him, saw him grow 267 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: up as a child, like David Yoder, or having a 268 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: hard time taking in that he is now charged with 269 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: double murder. David Yoder, what did you think when you 270 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: learned that cops have arrested Richard Allen for the murders 271 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: of Abby and Libby? First started once is no way, 272 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: no way, But then you know, if it's true, then 273 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: then he deserves the penalty that goes along with it. 274 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: I hope, I hope they catch whoever did it. If 275 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: it isn't him. If it is him, then then he 276 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: deserves everything he gets. David Yoder says he is absolutely 277 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: shocked that a boy he knew his entire childhood, all 278 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: the way through growing up and moving away as an adult, 279 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: is possible for such a gruesome sex attack we believe, 280 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: and double murder we believe by knife. I don't know, 281 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: I'll have to ask a shrink Karen Stark about this, 282 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: but the thought of putting a knife to a little 283 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: girl's throat is just it's it's repulsive. I don't even 284 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 1: want to think about it. But a little digging does 285 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 1: reveal a tiny lip. Take a listen to our friend 286 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: Max at Fox fifty nine. Alan has no criminal history, 287 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: but Carroll County Dispatch records show he had one encounter 288 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: with police in twenty fifteen. The sheriff said it was 289 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 1: a domestic issue where Alan was supposedly drunk and his 290 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 1: wife took him too a Loffyett hospital. No law enforcement 291 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: action was taken, but deputies were sent to his Delphi 292 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,120 Speaker 1: home to quote, keep the peace, okay, Max, a little. 293 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: So far, the cops haven't come to our home to 294 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 1: keep the peace, and nobody's been carted off to the 295 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: emergency room. Drunk is a skunk, So what do we 296 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: know about what happened? But we're providing a whole lot 297 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: of clarification about that. You know, it sounds like there 298 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: was you know, as I said, there there was a 299 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 1: domestic situation. When I asked the shareff, who's the domestic 300 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: station situation between he wouldn't tell me. So, you know, 301 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: I am a little suspect of this, but you know, 302 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: that was But it's also the only other thing I 303 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,199 Speaker 1: ever found of him. I mean, you saw, I went 304 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: to his hometown, looked through his criminal background.

So you know, I'll 307 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 1: leave that for you guys to decide what you want 308 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 1: to think about that, and I certainly will I certainly 309 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 1: will do.

But by 323 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 1: the way, I agree with you, Well, I mean again, 324 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 1: broad Daylight two victims with other people around, a victim 325 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: that clearly has a cell phone that is high risk. 326 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: You're talking about somebody on the bridge that's, you know, 327 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: eighty feet high in the air and has boards missing. 328 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: Everything he did was so risky. It tells me that 329 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: ain't his first rodeo. And I want to say one 330 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 1: more thing. When I was listening to the neighbors speak, 331 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: and I think people need to understand when you look 332 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: at a case like this and you're only thinking from 333 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: your vantage point, you can't possibly accept it or understand it. 334 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: But when you talked to criminologists like you and I, Nancy, 335 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 1: we talked, probably their throats were slash, they were posed, 336 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: they were staged. Things were probably done there, whether it's 337 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 1: a carving or some sort of ritual, if you look 338 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: at it. If this was my case, one of the 339 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: first things I would do is go to CBS and 340 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: see if there's a camera in the girls restaurant. Well, 341 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: that's funny you would say that, because after investigating a 342 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: case in chief, the very next thing I would do 343 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 1: is start looking for similar transactions. But you said it 344 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: so much more descriptively than I did. Because a crime 345 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 1: like this there has got to be some prior not 346 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: necessarily in the Scott Peterson type case, where that is 347 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: a domestic homicide, right, he hasn't had another wife to 348 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: kill in a case like this. However, these are not 349 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:56,880 Speaker 1: his children, so although he does have a daughter near 350 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: their age, that tells me there are very likely other victims. 351 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: And I agree with you three hundred percent. Now, what 352 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:11,879 Speaker 1: do we know about A twelve plus hour search of 353 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: his home. Something in that home led them to ultimately 354 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: arrest the local pharmacists, the tech Richard Allen take a 355 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: listen our cut eighty three, our friends at crime Online 356 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: and first our friend Lindsay Stone Fox fifty nine. Richard 357 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: Allen was not a stranger to this community. Information uncovered 358 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: by our rust the Quaid from sources with knowledge of 359 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: the investigation found he even came forward in the early 360 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 1: days of the investigation as a witness from a mon 361 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 1: on high Bridge the day Abbey and Libby were killed 362 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: in February of twenty seventeen. Now, at the time any 363 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: inquiry did not reveal the need for further investigation. However, 364 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: his name surfaced again recently. A search warrant was issued 365 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: at his house two weeks ago and revealed evidence reportedly 366 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 1: linking him to the deaths. He was arrested last Wednesday. 367 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 1: His initial hearing Friday, ten days before the arrest of 368 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: murder suspect Richard Allen, police officers extensively searched the fifty 369 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: year old's home, Neighbors tell the New York Posts the 370 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 1: non uniformed officers were on the property for about twelve hours. 371 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 1: During the search of the property, Allen chairs with his wife. 372 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: Officers were seen quote snooping a lot around the fire 373 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: pit and at the backyard. A neighbor describes quote lots 374 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: of flashlights, lots of pictures, lots of sifting unquote in 375 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: that area. The source says that it was odd for 376 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: them to be in that area, as the Allans were 377 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: never observed burning things. The neighbor also said when police 378 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: arrived at the property, no one suspected that there would 379 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: be a connection to the murders of Living and Abbey. 380 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: What are they looking for? What were they looking for? 381 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: If the Allens really didn't use the fire pit, then 382 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: what were they digging around for? Could have anything to 383 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 1: do with blood evidence and there will be blood evidence. 384 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 1: Martin my word, take a listen to our friends at WISH. 385 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: This nine page request for a search warrant filed March 386 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 1: seventeenth of twenty seventeen. Now that's a little more than 387 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: a month after Libby German and Abby Williams were found 388 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:17,120 Speaker 1: murdered in Delphi. This disturbing document, for the first time 389 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 1: gives us an investigator's description of the crime scene and 390 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: what the suspect may have taken with him. The document, 391 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: written by an FBI agent, describes what investigators found when 392 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: they discovered the bodies of Abby Williams and Libby German 393 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 1: on February fourteenth. The agent writes, a large amount of 394 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: blood was lost by the victims at the crime scene. 395 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: Because of the nature of the victim's wounds, it is 396 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: nearly certain the perpetrator of the crime would have gotten 397 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 1: blood on his person or clothing. Straight out to Fox 398 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 1: fifty nines, Max Lewis, all of that together, let's make 399 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 1: sense of it. Number one, A twelve plus hour search 400 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 1: of Richard Allen's home. A few days later, they come 401 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:03,479 Speaker 1: back in him. They're digging around a very unused fire 402 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: pit with disturbed earth near by. We know there's blood evidence, 403 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: and also did you hear that that he actually came 404 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:20,880 Speaker 1: forward as a witness in the early days of the investigation. Yeah, he, uh, 405 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: from what we have heard from our sources, you know, 406 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: he you know, walked up and volunteered to police and said, hey, 407 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: you know, I was up there. I didn't really see anything, 408 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 1: but you know I can tell you, you know, whatever 409 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,360 Speaker 1: you need to know or whatever. So you know, it's 410 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: that's sort of another amazing thing. And he was sort 411 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: of brushed off and not really given a whole lot 412 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 1: of thought to as far as the search goes on 413 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 1: his house. Yeah, they were. Neighbors told us they were 414 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 1: searching around there, digging in the backyard, digging in a 415 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: fire pit. Makes you wonder what was in that fire pit? 416 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 1: Was he trying to get rid of something? You know, 417 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: what was going on back there? So many, so many 418 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: unanswered question about this, but it all doesn't look good. 419 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: I want to circle back to what you just said. 420 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 1: Tell me again. Max Lewis joining us from Fox fifty nine, 421 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: who's been on the case from the very very beginning. 422 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: You stayed at the in the initial days of the 423 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: investigation that Richard Allen went to police and said I 424 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: was there and offered himself up as a witness. That's right, 425 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 1: he was. You know, he said he was on the 426 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: trail that day. And I'm not exactly sure how the 427 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: encounter happened, if he was you know, if police came 428 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: upon him and started, you know, asking him, or if 429 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: he just walked up to them and said, hey, I 430 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,239 Speaker 1: was here, didn't see anything. But you know, I can 431 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: help you with what you need to know. But we 432 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: do know that he was interviewed by police in the 433 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: days after Abby and Libby first disappeared and then were 434 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 1: found murdered. To Karen Start joining me renowned psychologists joining 435 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: us out of Manhattan at Karen starton dot com. That's 436 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 1: Karen with the see Karen. He places himself at the 437 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: scene of the murder. Scott Peterson did that, idiot. He 438 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: places himself there claiming he's fishing on Christmas Eve in 439 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: the cold and the rain, and then Lacy and Connor's 440 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: bodies turn up miraculously where he was fishing. And then 441 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: in the weeks that followed, he was tracked back and 442 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: forth to San Francisco Bay looking out over the water. 443 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: I guess he was trying to see if their bodies 444 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 1: had washed up. But also it reminds me of Wayne Williams, 445 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: the Atlanta serial killer. He was always at the scene 446 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: of the crime before anybody else got there, under the 447 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 1: guise of being a stringer for TV stations. He was 448 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: always there, and I think trying to glean evidence from 449 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: the police, trying to get information. Were they onto him. 450 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: What do you make of him coming to the scene 451 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: in the days immediately following the I'm not the least surprised, Nancy, 452 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: because yes, perhaps looking for evidence, But the truth is, 453 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: when you're that kind of person, a psychopath capable of 454 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 1: doing this without empathy, you are, in many instances reliving 455 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 1: what happens. He's enjoying, believe it or not, every moment 456 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 1: of this very cunning and manipulative, sitting under posters with 457 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: his own sketch and back of him. And I want 458 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: to tell you something. You mentioned all those killers who 459 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: everyone keeps saying, you know, yeah, I never would have 460 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 1: expected it out him. And that's not surprising, because that's 461 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: part of this m is superficially charming, and they strike 462 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: observers as remarkably normal, but they're not normal. Just the 463 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 1: fact that he did that. Think about it, he goes, 464 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 1: he's the one that extensively committed this crime, and he's volunteering. 465 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: And I think that very often police forget to look 466 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: at a person like this. If they want to be there, 467 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: they want to be a part of it. They're getting 468 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: it thrill out of reliving it and being a part 469 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,199 Speaker 1: of the process. I don't know if the name Rodney 470 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: al Kala rings a bell and Cheryl says, you're jumping in, 471 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 1: I'll throw this to you. He was the Dating Game killer, 472 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: Rodney al Kalla, and he was so charming, he managed handsome, 473 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 1: the works to some people, not me, but many people. 474 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,199 Speaker 1: He was so charming and personal that they put him 475 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: on the Dating Game remember that show. And he turned 476 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: out to be a cold bloody killer, cold bloody killer. 477 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: But let's talk about people that ingratiate themselves in cases. 478 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: Vodiac did it. Oh, Vodiac couldn't take it and had 479 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: to write them letters. And let's talk about another thing 480 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: with Wayne Williams that is identical to this case. Wayne 481 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: Williams also burned things, not in a fire pit, but 482 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: on his greal remember after police yea and at the game. Okay, 483 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: So these are people that the thrill that she mentioned 484 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: is absolutely correct, and that's another reason he hasn't maybe 485 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: had to repeat the crime yet because he's still living 486 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,959 Speaker 1: this one. The family comes into CBS and he has 487 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: contact with him, you know, ask him, hey, do you 488 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: need anything. Maybe he goes to where Kelsey works. You know, 489 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: Kelsey always said she worried about that, and that is 490 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: a victim's sister had contact. But I'll tell you something else. 491 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 1: I guarantee that he went to the funeral or the viewing. 492 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: And I guarantee he was a volunteer searcher, whether it 493 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: was official or not. I guarantee he was out there. Okay, 494 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: I've got a pretty good idea what may have been 495 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: burned and that fire pit. Take a listen to our 496 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 1: friend to me Johnson WISHTV. Authorities also found that two 497 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: articles of clothing from one of the girls was missing 498 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,479 Speaker 1: from the crime scene, while the rest of their clothing 499 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: was recovered. It also appeared the girl bodies were moved 500 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 1: and staged. The agent goes on to say, based upon 501 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: my training and experience, it is common for perpetrators of 502 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 1: this type of crime to take a souvenir or in 503 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: some fashion memorialize the crime scene. The agent also references 504 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: the video on Libby's phone, confirming it was forty three 505 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: seconds long. Up until now, only a few seconds have 506 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: been made public, that the girls were followed by the 507 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: suspect on the Monon Highbridge trail, and that there were 508 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: no visible signs of a struggle or fight. Okay, taking 509 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: a souvenir. Crime Stories with Nancy Grace straight out to 510 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: Fran Longwell, joining US veteran trial lawyer expertise homicide. What 511 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: do you make of that, Fran, I think that's totally 512 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 1: that's natural. I think a lot of them, a lot 513 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 1: of serial killers, for sure, always seem to take some 514 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: kind of souvenir. We had a case years ago where 515 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: they were fighting bodies along the belt Way in areas 516 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 1: of pre s George's County, and years and years later 517 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: that suspect was found. He was able to draw pictures 518 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: of each victim, what she looked like, and he had 519 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: some sulvenir reached one of those murders. I don't think 520 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: that's unusual. I think that's part of their excitement of 521 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: the crime. What about it, Karen Stark, New York Psychologists 522 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: joining us today from Manhattan. What about taking souvenirs? It's 523 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: very common it's like, you know, all those scrapbooks I 524 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 1: have of the twins. I mean, I don't even know 525 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 1: how many. I've got birthday Chris and a Christmas, Thanksgiving birthday. 526 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: It just goes on and on, a summer vacation for 527 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: every year they're fifteen, Karen, those are my souvenirs, But 528 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: their souvenirs are of the crime emtie. They want to 529 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: relive it. That's the whole thing is that it's exciting 530 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: to them. So two pieces of clothing. I hate to 531 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: say this, but I have a feeling that will be underwear, 532 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 1: because they like to do that, to take underwear, to 533 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: take some kind of token that they've been there, that 534 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: they do this, it gives them a really good sense 535 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 1: of themselves. They're powerful, they're above the law, and they 536 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: got away with it, and they're caught dead in the water. 537 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: Cheryl McCollum. The evidence which suggests this, and rumors have abounded, 538 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: but we're not going to know until we have the 539 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: release date of those warrants and probably will cause affidavits 540 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: in November. Later on in November, we think, but what 541 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 1: out the theory that the girls were redressed and that 542 00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: somehow some of their clothing were interchanged by accident. Again, 543 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: those of us in this business, redressing is something that occurs. 544 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: I mean's something that they ched bundy Ah after the 545 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: person was dead. He'd redressed them and do their hair 546 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: and makeup. He'd bathed their bodies in the bathtub at 547 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: the house Israel keys did the same thing, makeup, hair, 548 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: redressed them, posed them, raiding the girl's hair like yeah, 549 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: oh gosh, yeah, that's part of their fantasy. They're acting 550 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: something out. So a lot of times we focus on 551 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: the murder, but it is a sexually generated crime, there's 552 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 1: no question about it. And again his computers, when you 553 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: know the superintendent mentioned the lab so often, the electronic part, 554 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: the biology, the tool marks, the voice analysis, the hairs, 555 00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: the fiber, the blood, the blood, the tool marks which 556 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: is from a knife. But I also think Arthon is 557 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 1: going to be a money tree too. Doctor Todd M. 558 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: Barr now joining us speaking of blood. He is a 559 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 1: board certified and atomic clinical forensic pathologist joining us out 560 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: of Ohio. He's featured in Thin Places, Essays from in 561 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 1: Between and you can find him on Twitter at Todd 562 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: Barr MA. That's from Medical Exam or doctor Barr. Thank 563 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 1: you for being with us and waiting for the build 564 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:36,879 Speaker 1: up to the scientists, the medical examiners that ultimately sis 565 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: there are no eyewitnesses as of yet will make or 566 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: break this case. We learned there are copious amounts of 567 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:49,840 Speaker 1: blood at the scene. How is that likely to have happened? Well, Nancy, 568 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: it seems to me. I know that there's some speculation 569 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,320 Speaker 1: that possibly the throats of the victims have been slashed, 570 00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:01,399 Speaker 1: and you know, because the carrodi arteries are under such 571 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 1: high pressure, there would be a lot of um spatter 572 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 1: and disbursement of blood in the process. So you're absolutely 573 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 1: a hundred percent correct that could be transfer of that 574 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 1: blood evidence not only onto the victim's clothing, but also 575 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: onto the perpetrator. So um, And my thought was, you know, 576 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 1: maybe he even was burying the murder weapon that in 577 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 1: the fire pit area, possibly the clothing. Um. And I've 578 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: worked on several serial killer cases before, and they do 579 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: like to take a trophy from uh. You know, it's 580 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: been my experience that that that these articles that they 581 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 1: collect are basically like a trophy. And I have to 582 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: also think to myself that perhaps these people revisiting the 583 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 1: case trying to get involved in the case. There may 584 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: even be some some notoriety element, like they actually want 585 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: to be caught. Um So I think that, you know, 586 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 1: with a twenty million dollar bond on this gentleman, there's 587 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,320 Speaker 1: got to be some significant evidence that they found. I 588 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: know it's all sealed, but I'm very much concerned that 589 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: there are other victims at play here. Wow, that was 590 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,880 Speaker 1: a lot of information, doctor Todd Barr. Still, I'm just 591 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 1: digesting everything that you just said. Got a question if 592 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 1: this is, as we believe, a stabbing death, which I 593 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: find very very unusual. I would have suspected a strangling 594 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: death or some sort of asphyxiation under these circumstances, But 595 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 1: due to the copious amounts of blood too, which have 596 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 1: been alluded in the documents, it leads me to think 597 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: that it is in fact a stabbing death. If there 598 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,720 Speaker 1: are multiple stab wounds, such as in that Jodi Arias 599 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: case where Travis Alenxander was stabbed twenty nine plus times 600 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: and then shot, would you be able to match that 601 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: They're called tool markings, match the wounds up to a 602 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 1: particular knife, and if so, how depending on the type 603 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,800 Speaker 1: of knife that may have been used, If it was 604 00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: one that had a serrated edge. You could actually if 605 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 1: it if the tool actually got into the bone in 606 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,280 Speaker 1: the area that's that's where the tool marks are found 607 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,400 Speaker 1: when the when the blade would pass over the bone, 608 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:29,439 Speaker 1: and if it's serrated, they can actually match up those 609 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: serrated edges almost identically to to show um, you know 610 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,239 Speaker 1: that a specific tool was used. So if they do 611 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,920 Speaker 1: have the murder weapon and they have evidence of serrations 612 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 1: on the bone, then that would very easily be matched up. 613 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,799 Speaker 1: Dodger Toddbar you really need to do an audio book 614 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: on all the cases that you have worked, because just 615 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 1: hearing you explain it is very very intriguing, especially when 616 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,320 Speaker 1: you're talking about matching up tool our keys. Guys, it 617 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 1: ain't over yet. It is far from over. Take a 618 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 1: listen to this. This is rather unusual, but it's not 619 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 1: going to be forever. This is very complex and just 620 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 1: since um what less than forty eight hours ago, we 621 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 1: have over two hundred new additional tips. So we've still 622 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: got some We've still got a lot of work to do, 623 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: but I'm proud of where we are. Can you characterize 624 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 1: any of those tips if you could say, well, it's 625 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 1: kind of what we have gotten are like, WHOA, we've 626 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: gotten something. I mean, I know you can't talk specifics. 627 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:34,760 Speaker 1: I'll say that, I'll say to you, to to everybody 628 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:38,280 Speaker 1: watching this morning. Every one of those matter, every single 629 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: one of the matters. So if you think it's a 630 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,359 Speaker 1: little bit unusual, but us tell us, let us figure 631 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 1: that out. And we're not always going to tell you 632 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 1: what we know until the time is right. We'll never 633 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,320 Speaker 1: tell you what we think. While the investigation is ongoing 634 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 1: and tips pouring in, the harsh reality is setting into 635 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,840 Speaker 1: the girls families. Their quest has been to been to 636 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: find the killer. Take a listen to our cut seventy eight. 637 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,800 Speaker 1: I've always told people that when we were told that 638 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 1: they'd hear me yelling from the rooftops, and when they 639 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 1: told us, it was really just kind of like, oh, 640 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:21,800 Speaker 1: reality was much different than what I totally expected. I 641 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: got up the next morning and got my coffee and 642 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 1: got ready to post my today as the day and 643 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: realize that, well, I don't have to do this anymore. 644 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: So I think that's when summer reality set in and 645 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, now, now what do I do? What is 646 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:46,360 Speaker 1: my purpose? You're hearing Libby's grandma, our friend now Baky 647 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 1: Patty speaking to our friends at chel N What now. 648 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:55,280 Speaker 1: I advise everyone that now focus is on a true verdict. 649 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,879 Speaker 1: We wait as justice and falls. Goodbye friend,
