Speaker 1: on our way to the grocery store, out jogging to

4
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 1: pick up your children from school, and route to work

5
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: and back on the elevator, do we ever take time

6
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: to look around? I try not to because I know

7
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: the statistics that a large percentage of people around me

8
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: are convicted fellows. They're own probation, they're on parole or

9
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 1: waiting to commit their very first crime or at least

10
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: first time they get caught. Every day, Killers amongst Us,

11
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: It is a very grim reality, grim but true. I mean,

12
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 1: I see Grace, thanks for being with us here at

13
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 1: k A Killers amongst Us. Annie lay beautiful, brilliant Missing

14
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,320

00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: to our friend Sharon Alfonsei at ABC. Lee was last

16
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: seen Tuesday at ten in the morning. A surveillance camera

17
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 1: captured this picture of her entering the Yale lab where

18
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: she worked, but so far there are no pictures of

19
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 1: Lee leave it. She after pocketbook, her cell phone, everything

20
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 1: in the lab. Dog searched the building and investigators sorted

21
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: through dumpsters. Least picture was posted along Connecticut's highways. Late Friday,

22
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: investigators went through the lab building again, this time with

23
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: blueprints in hand. Sources say they were focusing on the

24
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: basement area looking for clues. Whatever it is. I just

25
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: hope that she's found safely on road home. And investigators

26
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: are reviewing the surveillance tapes of more than seventy cameras

27
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: in the area. They're going through each of those frame

28
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: by frame, But so far, university official says, there's been

29
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 1: no signs of foul play. We've gone over and over

Speaker 1: why was it cole feet. No one in her family,

31

50
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: me a lot. But hey, Matthew, take a listen to

51
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: our friends at ABC. But on the Yale campus as

52
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: the days pass, concern deepens. Act just point her to

53
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: be okay. If she was taking in the middle of

54
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: the day, we could be too. Now. Professor who Annie

55
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: was supposed to actually attend a class about the time

56
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,119
Speaker 1: that she wasn't missing, canceled that class and that professor

57
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: was questioned. But we are told by law enforcement sources

58
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: that professor had a rock solid alibi and is not

59
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: considered a suspect. Huh. Another quote rock solid alibi. Matthew

60
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: Chase again with US Newsday. You can find him at

61
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: Twitter at Chase Matthew. Matthew, let's talk about the fact

62
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 1: that the professor canceled the class and that's where she

63
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: was supposed to be. Who is this professor? Why was

64
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: he deigned to have a rock solid alb I just

65
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: like the fiance early on, I believe it was Friday,

66
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: as we had heard that he had been There had

67
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: been a professor who had been questioned. But it came

68
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,679
Speaker 1: some outlets went with that story. We did not, because

69
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: we had heard that he could have this alibi. Um.

70
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 1: And you know, it just just like other things in

71
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: this case, it was a coincidence. There was the smoke alarm. Uh,

72
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 1: it just coincidentally went off. Her wedding day was a

73
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: couple of days away. Um. You know, there's this idea

74
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: that maybe she's a one runaway bride, but both of

75
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: you know, wind up just not panning out, not panning

76
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: out at the get go. You know, why is it,

77
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 1: Daryl Cohen? That's so often when somebody is a suspect,

78
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: police say there are no suspects. Fancy and some magicians,

79
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: you don't see what I'm looking for because I tell

80
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,359
Speaker 1: you I am not. Therefore there's no suspects. Therefore the

81
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 1: suspect for a suspect, hopefully let their guard down just

82
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: a little bit, tell you one little piece of information

83
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: that they might not have otherwise told you had their

84
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: guard been up. Simple been there forever and will stay

85
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: there forever. Jess Scott Morgan, you certainly know your way

86
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 1: around an investigation. The minute cops say to me they're

87
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 1: not a suspect, I start looking at them. Why are

88
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: they even bringing them up? Yeah? Exactly why you know?

89
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: Why do they bring them up? Because I can tell you,

90
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: even though the authorities are going to say that they

91
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 1: are not a suspect, keep in mind, all of the

92
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 1: Criminal Investigation Division that is involved directly involved in the

93
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: case are still at least peripherally going to keep their

94
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: eyes on this person, because, for one thing, when you

95
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: make a public statement like that, you can allow individuals

96
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 1: to let their guard down, and then they start doing

97
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: stupid stuff, and generally it's the stupid stuff that gets

98
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: criminals caught. In this particular case, they would say that,

99
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: oh man, Joe Scott, you're so right. Does anybody beside me?

100
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 1: Remember when Lacy Peterson went missing and somebody wisely stuck

101
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: a tracker on husband Scott Peterson's car, and he kept

102
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: going over and over and over to the San Francisco Bay,

103
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: thinking he was all alone and unseen, and stopping getting

104
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,280
Speaker 1: out of the car and looking out on the bay

105
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: all the time knowing his wife an unborn baby. We're

106
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the bay, waited down by cement blocks,

107
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: just hoping against hope they wouldn't pop up. Guess what

108
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: they did. Took a minute, but they did. That's the

109
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: kind of behavior I'm talking about it. What is it,

110
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: doctor Angela Arnold? Why do criminals always, not always, but

111
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: a lot of times go back to the scene of

112
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: the crime. Why, Well, Nancy, you know, there's still human beings.

113
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: They have to feel a sense of guilt and some

114
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 1: sort of remorse possibly, and also I believe that they're

115
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: they're going back because they want to make sure that

116
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: nothing has floated up. They're in I'm not going to

117
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: say that, I was going to say they're in an

118
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 1: altered state of mind when they do this. I think

119
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: they know exactly what they're doing. I think that they're

120
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: going back to make sure that they're not going to

121
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: get caught if any evidence has turned up. Lisa daddyo

122
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: with me, who works the case missing brainy at Oh,

123
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: she's so pretty Annie Lay, Lisa, if you tell me

124
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: you're a the foreign police lieutenant in having a police department.

125
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: If you tell me the professor Sir didn't have some

126
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: kind of crush on Annie Lay and he had an

127
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: airtight alibi and the fiance has an airtight alibi. I'll

128
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: believe it, yes or no, Yes, believe it or not.

129
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: So I mean a lot of the things and everyone's

130
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: kind of brought it up a little bit that was

131
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: problematic in this case. Everybody was running some different angle

132
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 1: and everybody wanted to kind of be the first to

133
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: break the case. And we had lots of leaks in

134
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: the investigation because we were dealing with a multitude of

135
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 1: agencies working together. So things that we would never typically

136
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 1: had put out regarding the investigation we're getting put out.

137
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: Literally almost every movie made was being announced throughout the media,

138
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: and there were hundreds and hundreds of reporters camped out

139
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: and from the police department over at ten amass thought

140
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 1: at the enne's apartment. And so while things that typically

141
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: you wouldn't have even come to the the forefront of

142
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: you would of people being considered a person of interest

143
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 1: would never have been out in the media. Everything in

144
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: this case kept getting magnified. So it was really causing

145
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: some issues for us. Her professor that had canceled the class,

146
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: her fiance Jonathan were knocked out of being suspects, like immediately,

147
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: that's how tight their alibis were. Okay, So coming from you,

148
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: Lisa Daddio, former police lieutenant right there, the jurisdiction who

149
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: worked this case, I believe it. So I've got to

150
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: take away. I've got to rule out my two first

151
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 1: persons of interest, and that would be the fiances, who

152
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: statistically you'll look at and the professor who suddenly canceled

153
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:48,119
Speaker 1: his class. I'm sure investigators thought, wow, he's so distraught,

154
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: he's canceling his class. Why is he so distraught? But

155
00:09:51,679 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: he's ruled out. He's got an alibi. It's not him.

156
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: Where is Annie late Joseph Scott Morgan? You just heard

157
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: Lisa daddy Estate. Everybody wanted to crack the case first.

158
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 1: You know what that tells me? That tells me contaminated

159
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: crime scene. Explain. Yeah, everybody when you involve yourself. I

160
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: hate the word first when it comes to an investigation,

161
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: because when you're moving forward on an investigation, if everybody's

162
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: sitting on the balls of their feet ready to pounce

163
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: on everything, that means that you run the risk of

164
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: not being able to take your time and methodically work

165
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 1: through it and listen, this is a passion driven event.

166
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: And I'm talking about from the perspective of her family

167
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: and friends. People want to find this young woman. They

168
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: desperately want to find her because they love her, they

169
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 1: care about her, they're worried. But while you're searching, you're searching,

170
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: and people with all the good intentions in the world

171
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: can dig through things that can move, things that can touch,

172
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 1: things that can trample things and grind it into the ground.

173
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: And evidence, particularly in the realm in which we live today,

174
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 1: is so very tiny. It's so very fragile. The slightest

175
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 1: thing for us as investigators and professionals like Lisa, you know,

176
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: it can actually turn the tide of the case in

177
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: one millisecond. But if you have somebody that puts their

178
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: foot in the wrong place, or pick something up or

179
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: destroys it, it's gone. It's gone. Forever. You're actually giving

180
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:32,679
Speaker 1: me a chill because you know, the other day I

181
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: guess it was who was it, John, David or Lucy.

182
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 1: They were going out in the door and I saw

183
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: law a long blonde hair on the back of their

184
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 1: their fleece, and I, you know, pulled it off and

185
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 1: dropped it. One hair. One hair proved that I had

186
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 1: been in contact with that fleece. Think back to the

187
00:11:55,480 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: Wayne Williams case in Atlanta, Multiple Bowl. Young boys and

188
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 1: men go missing, they're dead. A fiber A fiber and

189
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: this was brand new technology at that time and had

190
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 1: never been used in the United States before. The guy

191
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 1: who introduced it at trial helped hire me brilliant, brilliant

192
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: appellent lawyer. One fiber was the first one found under

193
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: a microscope. They're like, what is this? Guess what it was?

194
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: Carpet fiber out of the trunk of Wayne William's car.

195
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: Then they started looking for more fiber. Found fiber exactly

196
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: matching the carpet in Wayne William's home. And it was

197
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: a unique carpet wasn't made anymore. I want to think

198
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 1: it was something like orange shag. It was just let's

199
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: say something, Oh my goodness, I can't believe I remember that,

200
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 1: and you I don't find orange shag just every where.

201
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 1: They had a specific run of that carpet. They had

202
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 1: a specific run of that carpet that was unique, and

203
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: it was it was a very small run when they

204
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: were manufacturing. But one line, and I'll shut my mouth

205
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: after this, but I have to and uh, relative to this,

206
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 1: because as new as that technology was back then, back

207
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 1: in the early eighties, and with Wayne Williams, and we

208
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: moved forward to today where we have things like DNA

209
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: and then even you know, brought more specifically touched NA.

210
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 1: There's the old principle that goes back over one hundred years,

211
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: which is the edict that came down from Edmond Lecard

212
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: so many years ago, hundreds of years ago, where he

213
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: actually was able to look forward in time and he

214
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: understood logically his statement in that every contact leaves a trace,

215
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 1: so that no matter who you are, you're going to

216
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 1: leave something of yourself behind. And that applies not just

217
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: to bad guys, but that I hate to interrupt you

218
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: quoting up an old dead guy who happened to be brilliant,

219
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 1: I might say, and you're absolutely correct. I just want

220
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,439
Speaker 1: to clear one thing up, because Jackie's really giving me

221
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: the hairy eyeball. I was still in undergrad when all

222
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: that was happening, and I only know about it because

223
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: I came to the office and read all the appellate files.

224
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: I just want to be clear about that timing. Okay,

225
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 1: now that we've got that out of the way, here's

226
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: another thing. Let's analyze this. Oh, Daryl Cohen, you know

227
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: who I was talking to on the phone last night,

228
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 1: and the head of indictments that taught me how to

229
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: go through a file as thick or thin as it

230
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: may be, pick out the felonies and correctly drop an

231
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 1: indictment and take it to a grand jury. Who says,

232
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 1: by the way, that you have not called him as

233
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: I instructed you to do a month ago. That said,

234
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about the Wayne Williams case. I'm thinking about Fiber,

235
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about hair, I'm thinking about what Lisa Daddio said.

236
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: Everybody wanted to crack the case first, and they were

237
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: all rushing through the building, so many odd circumstances converging

238
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 1: to make the perfect storm, and somewhere in that storm,

239
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: Annie Lego's missing. But another thing about the cell phone

240
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: and the purse being left behind. Hold on, Darrel before

241
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: I get your conclusion, Lisa Daddio, you worked the case

242
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: where were her sale and purse? So Annie's cell phone

243
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: and purse were found in her actual office that was

244
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: not housed in ten Amaside, which is her research lab.

245
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 1: She was part of the medical building that was a

246
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 1: couple blocks away, and being a research student and you know,

247
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: kind of working underneath a full professor at the university,

248
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: her research professor. She left her items there and just

249
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: had her lab notebook with her her key card to

250
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: get in. And we know this obviously because we can

251
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: see her walking in to ten almost out, holding her

252
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: lab book and pretty much nothing else and then just

253
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: you know, going about her day as she normally would

254
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 1: prior to leaving. And you know I would do the

255
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: same thing, Darryl. At our office in the District Attorney's office,

256
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: it's a huge office. It was in the old courthouse,

257
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: so you were mixed in with floors of courtrooms, the

258
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 1: clerk's office probate and the District Attorney's office, which how

259
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: was housed on three and then four floors being indictments

260
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 1: and the elected DA Mister Slayton, a few other things

261
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: in there, a whole level where the appellate lawyers and

262
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 1: others were, then a whole other level of the trial lawyers.

263
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: I would wander around wherever I had to go with

264
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 1: nothing but my key to my office, and I usually

265
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 1: carry my ID, but not always so I can see

266
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: her rushing from one building into amstyle with nothing but

267
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 1: a lab book and a key card, leaving her cell

268
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: phone and her purse at her station in her main building.

269
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 1: This is telling me all over again, this is not

270
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: a runaway bride. What's she going to use her key

271
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 1: card to buy food at McDonald's and Kroger. No, not

272
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 1: a runaway, not the fiancee, not the professor. And now

273
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: fear reigns across New Haven. Take a listen to our

274
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: cut eighteen. This is Randall Pinkston with CBS. Four days

275
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 1: after Lee's disappearance, the university's police chief sought to reassure

276
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:55,880
Speaker 1: the Yale community. We have many physical security to help

277
00:17:55,960 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: us with this investigation, to include over seventy cameras. The

278
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 1: concern reaches far beyond the new Haven campus. The parents

279
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,679
Speaker 1: are like calling in link checking you know, are you

280
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: save today? Authorities continued to work in the laboratory where

281
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 1: any Lee was last seen. Authorities reportedly have discovered bloody

282
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 1: clothing in the ceiling of the building. Published reports see

283
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 1: the clothing is not Lee's. Investigators are also pouring through

284
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,399
Speaker 1: garbage at a hardwood waste facility looking for clues. Okay,

285
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 1: that's enough to throw wrench into the investigation to find

286
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 1: clothing that's bloody, and everybody's like, wow, we've found evidence,

287
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: but it's not her blood. It's from some other event.

288
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: They continue working and they're looking and looking and looking

289
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 1: as fear blankets the community. They're going through seventy camera

290
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 1: security footage. The concern then passes beyond the campus, parents

291
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: calling frantically to see if their children are safe. So

292
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: Daryl Cohen, Yeah, I appreciate the fear throughout the community.

293
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 1: I get it. I appreciate the parents calling, But I'm

294
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 1: thinking about the investigation. The pressure is mounting. When you're

295
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 1: going on four days you can't find her, you can't

296
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 1: find her body. The pressure sets in at that point.

297
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: Do you believe people begin to get frantic within the

298
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: investigation and make decisions they wouldn't normally make. I think

299
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 1: when your back is against the wall and you don't

300
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 1: have enough leads or enough evidence, you're going to start

301
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:39,880
Speaker 1: reaching out in every possible direction. And absolutely, Nancy, They're

302
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 1: going to be making assumptions, trying to see if this

303
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 1: works and travel to the end of this dead end,

304
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,640
Speaker 1: back up and do it again. They're going to keep

305
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 1: looking because it doesn't make sense. Now, leaving your purse

306
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: as a female, that's unusual, but leaving your cell phone

307
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: that is almost unheard of. Nobody male or female, younger old,

308
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: takes two inches away from their wherever they are without

309
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: bringing that cell phone. So yes, they're going to be

310
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 1: very worried. And my question about this bloody clothing. Has

311
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: there been DNA done on it? Does some of her

312
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: DNA reach that bloody clothing or is it completely a

313
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: separate incident that has nothing whatsoever to do with her disappearance.

314
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: Investigators find bloody clothing in the building we're missing Yale

315
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:48,199
Speaker 1: grad student anyway, lasting just before her wedding day, but

316
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 1: they say it's not Annie's blood, so therefore it's disconnected,

317
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 1: you know, straight back out to you. Matthew Chase, investigative

318
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 1: reporter Newsday. You can find him at Twitter at Chase Matthew, Hey,

319
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: what's your name backwards? On Twitter? You know, to be honest,

320
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: Nancy's having it first name, last name was not available,

321
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,640
Speaker 1: so I had to do it reverse. Well, hey, it works.

322
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 1: Necessity the mother of invention. So Matthew, there's just too

323
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: many coincidences piling up for me. You got the fire drill,

324
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 1: the unexpected fire drill, which Lisa Daddio says, she explained away.

325
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: You've got just before her wedding. You've got a boyfriend

326
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: with an airtight alibi, so say police. You've got this

327
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 1: professor who suddenly cancels classes he's so upset with an

328
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 1: airtight alibi, or so he says. Now there's bloody clothes

329
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,360
Speaker 1: in the ceiling. Why are there bloody clothes in the ceiling?

330
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 1: And cops say it's not her blood? Did you just

331
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,360
Speaker 1: like stop in your tracks at the time, Matthew Chase

332
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: when you hear bloody clothes were in the ceiling. But

333
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 1: I think this is where the you know, the coincidence

334
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:57,120
Speaker 1: is in the bloody clothing. It's in a drop ceiling.

335
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 1: It's not any lace clothing. But you just correct to me.

336
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 1: Matthew Hayes from Newsday, and thank you they said it's

337
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 1: not Annie's clothes, not that it's not her blood. Is

338
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: that what you just said, Matthew Chase. It's not right,

339
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 1: not her clothes. That's a big difference. I thought they

340
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,919
Speaker 1: said it's not her blood, so it would be totally

341
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 1: disconnected potentially. But you're just saying it's not her clothes

342
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: as opposed to not her blood. That's a subtle but

343
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 1: important distinction, straight to really renowned in her field. Lisa Daddio,

344
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 1: former police lieutenant New Haven Police on this case, now

345
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 1: the director of the Center for Advanced Policing at University

346
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:50,639
Speaker 1: Newhaven's Forensic Science department. Lisa Daddio, I don't want to

347
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: fact check Matthew Chase right in front of him, but

348
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 1: is that correct? It's I thought it was not her blood,

349
00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 1: but he's saying, no, it's not her clothing. Is that correct? Yes,

350
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: Matthew actually is correct on that. It's one of many

351
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 1: things that we started finding, but yeah, it wasn't He's right,

352
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: not in her clothing. See, that changes everything because that

353
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: coincidence is just you know, it's like taking out a

354
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 1: billboard on Third Avenue. You're standing on a crime scene

355
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: to suddenly find bloody clothes, even though they're not hers

356
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 1: stuffed up in the ceiling and Lisa Daddy, it wasn't

357
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: the ceiling of where she was last known to be

358
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 1: or some other ceiling. No, so it was actually the

359
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,679
Speaker 1: drop ceiling of the lower level. It was not in

360
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 1: her lab room where her key card had last key

361
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: card at her untry, so as somebody else's clothes covered

362
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: in blood Lisa. Was the blood dried, Yes it was.

363
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: It was actually absorbed on the articles of they that

364
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: were found. If it had even been the least bit damp,

365
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,919
Speaker 1: we would definitely know it had to be connected. But

366
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 1: the blood is dried, So is it another red herring

367
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 1: or is it for real? Matthew Chase? What's a drop ceiling? Yeah?

368
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,719
Speaker 1: You know in older buildings the seal, they'll look up

369
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: and you'll see a ceiling. But in some buildings there

370
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 1: is a kile that you can lift up and you

371
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 1: can access electrical materials, electrical wires, and you know, in

372
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: this case, someone apparently lifted up the ceiling and put

373
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: in the clothes that we're just talking about. And how

374
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 1: were those found? Matthew Chase, Why would you think in

375
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 1: a place unrelated to any light within the building to

376
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 1: look in the ceiling. The police, the FBI, actually multiple

377
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: police agencies were on this case and they were looking everywhere.

378
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,640
Speaker 1: So I of course was not in the basement, but

379
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: I assume that they were looking with the schematics. They're

380
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: looking in the ceiling, they're looking in every closet, they're

381
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 1: looking everywhere, and they make this discovery. Yeah, you're right in,

382
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 1: Matthew Chase, yet again investigative reporter in news Day. Now,

383
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: I get the investigative part of that, Lisa Daddy. Oh,

384
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: I know they came in with the blueprints for the building,

385
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,399
Speaker 1: but what led them to search an unrelated drop ceiling?

386
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 1: So as with you, basically any crime scene that investigators

387
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: are processing or trying to to look for evidence, you're

388
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 1: going to look for looking areas where anything can be

389
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: hidden or discarded. So it's not unusual for them to

390
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: look in ceilings, look behind things, look under things, you know,

391
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: because we know that, I mean, one thing that's really important, Nancy,

392
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 1: to realize this is originally considered a missing person came

393
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 1: so the lab for a couple of days after any

394
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 1: went missing, was still open and operating under normal circumstances.

395
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 1: Contamination oh yeah, and so you know, again the first

396
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: i'd say probably close to forty eight hours or so ish.

397
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: You know, it was being treated as a missing person case,

398
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 1: possibly a runaway bride case, so there was no reason

399
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 1: to lock the building down and you know, stop people

400
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 1: from going in and out. So knowing that investigators when

401
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: they're trying to find evidence, and they started finding things

402
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: obviously going you know, like on that day three ish

403
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 1: mark that it expanded their search to look where evidence

404
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,119
Speaker 1: could be concealed. And so you know, the drop ceiling

405
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: in the lab, all the different boxes that were in

406
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: there that had contained discarded gloves and lab because like biohazar,

407
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,400
Speaker 1: you know, obviously boxes and just looking everywhere for where

408
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 1: some type of evidence to make a link, to make

409
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: a connection could be found. And then a break in

410
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 1: the case. Take a listen to Randall Pingston CBS. It

411
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: was the discovery that everyone dreaded. After the exhausted search

412
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: using sniffer dogs and high tech equipment, last night, authorities

413
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 1: announced they had found remains, and even before they had

414
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 1: made positive identification, they say they believe it is indeed

415
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: the body of twenty four year old Annie Lay five

416
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: days after any lay vanished. State police found a body

417
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 1: in the building where she was last seen alive. Shortly

418
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,399
Speaker 1: after police made the announcement, Yale's president offered his condolences.

419
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 1: He hearts go out to the family of Annie Lee,

420
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: to her fiance, to her friends. The family and fiance

421
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 1: and friends now must suffer the additional ordeal of waiting

422
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: for the body to be positively identifiation Who murdered Annie

423
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:52,639
Speaker 1: lay As the family waits for a positive identification, knowing

424
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 1: in their hearts who else could it be? Nancy Grace

425
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 1: Killers amongst us son you know, goodbye friend,
