Speaker 1: Cyprus Street, the group quickly dispersed to their rooms, planning

17
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: to sleep late Saturday morning.

18
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, investigators revealed that thirty year old Alexander Dickey was

19
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: on a crime spree that night, beginning with the theft

20
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 2: of a car. He then broke into a residence on

Speaker 2: Cyprus Street, where he stole car keys, a wallet, and

22

Speaker 2: a firearm. Subsequently, after entering that unlocked home next door,

23
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 2: he found the door where Logan was present.

24
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 3: Unbeknownst to the sleeping college students, a burglar is on

25
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,360

26
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 3: neighborhood is home to USC fraternity brothers, and with each

27
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 3: roommate on a different schedule, doors are seldom locked. The

28
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 3: burglar gains access walking right through one of the doors

29
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 3: without a sound to alert anyone of his presence.

30
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 2: He fatally shot her before fleeing the scene, according to

31
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 2: police reports. Crime on Lines holding Zapple explains.

32
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 4: Saturday morning, the brothers and their visiting friends are awoken

33
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 4: with a start. A gunshot just rang out inside their home.

34
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 4: The panic young men and women gather in the living room,

35
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 4: but Logan hasn't come out of the guest room. Her

36
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 4: friends burst through the door to check on her and

37
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 4: find Logan unconscious, lying in a pool of blood.

38
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 2: For belongings fransacked now, Logan's father says this should never

39
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 2: have happened. The incident marked yet another break in for Dickie,

40
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 2: who had a lengthy criminal history. In August twenty fourteen,

41
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: Dickie was arrested and charged with two counts of first

42
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 2: degree burglary, which carries a minimum sentence of fifteen years

43
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 2: and a maximum of life in prison. While still detained

44
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 2: at the Lexington County Detention Center. In October, he was

45
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 2: served with warrants for a third first degree burglary charge.

46
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: A month later, Dickie opted to plead guilty to a

47
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 2: lesser charge of second degree non violent burglary, receiving a

48
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 2: ten year sentence that was suspended during probation. In March

49
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 2: twenty fifteen, Dickie returned to court for the remaining burglary charges,

50
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 2: where one was dismissed. He pled guilty to a first

51
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: degree offensive third degree burglary, despite having previously admitted guilt

52
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 2: to a burglary charge only months earlier. Fast forward to

53
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, dicky found himself in court again, facing

54
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 2: a charge of violent second degree burglary. However, he pleaded

55
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 2: guilty to a first offense of third degree burglary again.

56
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 2: Eleventh Circuit Solicitor Rick Hubbard stated that when his office

57
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 2: prosecuted Dickie in twenty twenty three, they were unaware of

58
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 2: his prior burglary arrest and convictions. Had they been informed,

59
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 2: Hubbard asserted, they would have pursued the case differently, resulting

60
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: in a potentially longer sentence for the man. So why

61
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 2: were the prosecutors unaware of Dicky's previous criminal history. Hubbard

62
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 2: explained that Dicky's rap sheet his criminal record was incomplete.

63
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 2: His office relies on the record to determine prosecution strategies.

64
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 2: When an individual is arrested, their fingerprints are sent to

65
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 2: the South Carolina State Law Enforcement Division known as SLED.

66
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 2: A spokesperson from SLED clarified that once they receive fingerprints,

67
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 2: it triggers the addition of new arrests to the individual's

68
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: criminal history. However, they did not receive the fingerprints for

69
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: Dickie his twenty fourteen burglary arrest. Despite having a lengthy

70
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 2: criminal record spanning over a dozen pages in twenty twenty three,

71
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: none of his burglary charges from twenty fourteen were ever documented.

72
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 2: Captain Adam Merrick, the department's public information officer, confirmed that

73
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 2: Dickie's prints were taken during his August twenty fourteen booking

74
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 2: and submitted to sled, Yet only one of the seven

75
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 2: charges from that incident appeared in his rap sheet. Merrick

76
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 2: went on to say he was unsure if Dickie was

77
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 2: printed during the October twenty fourteen arrest. An updated version

78
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,599
Speaker 2: of Dicky's criminal record now includes the previously missing charges.

79
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 2: In twenty nineteen, Dicky faced a serious charge of armed

80
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 2: robbery with a deadly weapon, which carries a mandatory minimum

81
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 2: sentence of ten years. Instead, he plelled guilty to a

82
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 2: lesser charge of strong arm robbery and received only a

83
00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 2: four year prison sentence. Given this pattern of a f defences,

84
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 2: Federico questioned, with that history, why would anyone give him

85
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 2: a lesser sentence? Why is he facing lesser charges? My

86
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 2: daughter is dead and I need an explanation. The girl's

87
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 2: father said he sent a list of questions to Hubbard

88
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 2: regarding Dicky's past cases, but Hubbard refrained from commenting due

89
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 2: to Dickie having a current pending charge. Father still has

90
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: lots of questions, and so does Nancy Grace, so she

96
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 2: a friend who declined his request to drink her breast milk.

97
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,560

98
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 2: to records from the pair Irish County jail. It remains

99
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:06,000

100
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 2: Reports from KTVE indicate that the arrest report details how

101
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 2: Fuller expressed his desire to drink breast milk from his friend,

102
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 2: who had recently given birth. The woman was reportedly appalled

103

Speaker 2: by his remark and chose to leave the room. According

104

105

Speaker 2: given birth two weeks earlier and was not interested in

106
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 2: his proposition. Police alleged that Fuller then proceeded to assault

107
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 2: her and ceased his actions only when he heard the

108
