Ian denied her allegations it was so alarmed by her email that she applied for a straining order against. Heard he accuse her of infidelity milk, because of her emotional instability, bits of rage, i fear for my safety. The request for the Trading Order was dismissed a few weeks later. Back at the live member failed, or so it seemed. The lawyers hashed out a compromise. We had just getting a Settlement Agreement. Ian and michelle signed it in november 2015. That deal allowed ian to stay in the condo, but he had six months to get his own mortgage. Failing that, he would have to solve a condo and split any profits with michelle.

Angela came into the picture not long after ian that that michelle had broken up. Reporter kate covered it for the daily beast. She spent hours digging through the curious emails that michelle said ian during the condo. One minute shes polite and thanking him for reminders on her car insurance, the next minute she is saying that he is the anti christ. Even after they signed the agreement, the evils kept coming.

My commissary order finally arrived today. So, i paper and pencils, among other goodies. Redding has always relax lee. Since im pretty sure this ordeal is the most stressful of my life today, you can expect to get letters from me. I wanted to send you one positive thing and one thing i want to do when im free is four my red and sanity as for yours. One positive thing, i havent had this much time to read in a long time. For shoeless, a gourmet burger and a glass of red one. All my love, michelle. I hear a lot of you reassuring them in that. Thats exactly what was happening. I didnt want them to worry too much. I didnt want to be afraid. They were fighting so much on the outside and doing so much work, you know . I wanted them to be proud. Of what a brave girl they had raised. As the weeks turned into months, her brave front started to crack. There were mornings when i would wake up and i will bring my eyes and i would see the jostle of all and i would think, okay, im going to wake up a second time. This is just a nightmare. And it wasnt. It was for real. I was starting to feel like i was slipping away. You thought your humanity slipping away . Yeah. She was nothing like a criminal. Thats forgotten . My gut is pretty good. Her parents hired michael guisti. Michael guisti felt an instant connection to the hadleys. I looked at michelles family, to a large extent i saw my family. I saw a Working Class family who fiercely defended their child. She was a young, ambitious nba student who was nothing but brighteyed and optimistic. And was facing life in prison . For no reason. No reason. So, this is the case you go to law school for. This is the reason we become a lawyer. Rachels mom and dad showed guisti the Computer Research they had done on the emails at the heart of the case. Michael hadley was convinced they found something crucial. Why are michelles digital fingerprints on this . That theyre not. There are no digital fingerprints whatsoever. It looks like its coming from michelle. It looks like someone is making it look like its coming from michelle. That is for sure. They spreadsheet showed something credit mandating emails were sent what michelle could prove that she was in the classroom at chapman university. Heres machelle a school, and. Janet here emails coming. Shes in class she was in class doing her final course presentation. Theres no way shes going to be sending this email. The athletes that they had. It proved that michelle was innocent. Defense attorney guisti disagreed. He knew it would take skillful legal window to convince prosecutors. A District Attorney is never going to buy my evidence. A District Attorney is going to have to convince themselves that they have evidence which might accidentally coincide with what i have. It back, police and prosecutors were still doing everything they could to link those emails to michelle. We have a very skilled detective whos working on the case. He was a constant communication with the District Attorneys office and try to piece it together to prove the case at solidify have record. Problem was it wasnt coming together. His electronic latches were coming from a different place. We can verify it was coming from Michelle Hadleys device. It was a blow to the prosecutions case. But there is more evidence that just ip addresses. There was the bad blood between michelle and ian, the Restraining Orders, those harrowing attempted rapes of bensley wife, angela. And that fire and brimstone language of the threatening emails so distinctive and seemingly in michelles voice. That language of religious retribution, they appear to be michele. You stand before got on the . Saying thats. Or that caused the police are investigators as well look at it and say, this is michelle. One thing was clear that, the Computer Forensics had blown a sizeable hole in the prosecutions case. Guisti seize the moment and worked out a deal. The dea would release michelle from jail, but he would not drop the charges against her. And the investigation would continue. After 80 days, michelle locked out of jail. On the outside, basically my parents, they were there waiting for me and got my coffee. Like a cup of coffee. The good cup of coffee. Which, man, ive been dreaming about that for so long. It was an incredible moment for the headlines. A legal victory, not the end of the road. She still in jeopardy. Still having charges. She had Ankle Bracelet on. I felt like i was so scarred from jail. And wearing that device, you feel like youre an animal. I just remember thinking, how did they get here . I didnt do anything. Coming up if michelle wasnt sending the emails, who was . And why . Im here to announce a ballet Felony Complaint. I dont think anyone could do that. The dea has a word for it. We diabolical. How did that work come to . You diabolical its something evil. When dateline continues.

Welcome back. Welcome back. Michelle hadley had been released from jail. Michelle hadley has been released from jail. If she hadnt sent those ominous emails filled with references to and kidnap and rape, who did . Could the answer be in the emails themselves . Now, with the conclusion of our story with Dennis Murphy. With every thump of her heart, Michelle Felt that she was losing a part of herself. Out of jail, but not out of jeopardy. Free to go to a high and coffee shop, but not allowed to remove the Ankle Bracelet tracker. When i wrapped it with the Sports Bandage because i was so embarrassed to be wearing it. You know . Everything was about to change. After a thorough search of michelles digital devices, investigators concluded the damning emails did not come from them. We have a lab, our own Computer Forensics lab. We have people that are very well trained. That is how this came to fruition. We were able to determine that Michelle Hadley was not the suspect. This was momentous. After months in jail, after the Ankle Bracelet, Michelle Hadley was cleared. You are happy, but your emotions are all over the place because you are coming out of this fog. Please face a daunting new investigation. A suspect could be literally anybody with a cell phone or access to the internet. We cant show groups coming from about the service of a Search Warrant. Getting the information from the Internet Service provider chuck moves. Police needed Critical Data from Internet Providers to confirm the precise times and locations of the cyberattacks against angela. They executed more than 50 Search Warrants and Court Mortars during their investigation. Theyre very few cases where weve had to write that many Search Warrants just to get to the bottom line, to get the truth. When they finally started getting information that they needed, the results were stunning. The ugly trail of ones and zeroes came to show that at least one of the people emails were coming from the condo in anaheim. The one ian and michelle had been to court over. The one ian angela were now living in. The condo, suddenly looking like the Scene Of The Crime and the motive all in one. This is where angela and ian let. I dont think they wanted to leave. So, if the ex conference, crazy, Cycle Excrement in the public eyes incarcerated, that resolves Financial Issues . Right. They will have complete control over their residents. Now, both of them were suspects. Ian, the u. S. Marshal and angela, the pregnant government. In a way, it makes more sense if youre looking at conventional motivation that it would be the exboyfriend, diaz and the woman he married. Right, exactly. The deep it looked, the more police zeroed in on the woman and married. All the bizarre goings on. One that stood out was angelas report that someone tried to rape her in the crash of the condo. If you go to the alley to get the garage. Crushes and have a dress on. It how did this assailant found her . Thats a question. Theres also some Surveillance Cameras that were in the area. Presumably, what a shot someone tried to enter. We didnt have that. Help out the scene itself . The question whether this could have happened and strive how she felt like i, of compare that to the light injuries she was showing, it looks sketching. Investigators uncovered more sketchy behavior. Angela seem to have a troubling history. You start seeing some of the fraudulent things that shes been involved. And that checks . Faking a Cancer Episode . Faking a Cancer Episode. Things like. That the dea says that angela lied about something else. She was not pregnant with ians child. It wasnt that trail applies that really mattered. It was the trail of emails that ultimately cracked the case. It turned out the emails sent from the condo didnt come from a computer at all, but, says that he, from a cell phone. Angelas cell phone. And a beyond strange case, this turn things up to 11. The original victim ended up being their number one suspect. Has that for whiplash . [laughter] i dont think anyone could believe it. It was time. Six months after Michelle Hadley was first charged, angela diaz was arrested and jailed. Good morning, thank you for coming. The dea, tony rackauckas, held a Press Conference and a look at the stunning evidence. Im here to announce the filing of Felony Complaint against angela diaz by Orange County District Attorneys office. There are no charges against ian, the man in the middle. The dea, said that angela diaz was the mastermind and soul after in an elaborate scheme to portray herself as a victim. She had quite simply framed Michelle Hadley. Michelle is accused of being angela and pretending to be michelle pretending to be angela. It was just that convoluted. Angela accused of sending herself threatening emails, invited men to her own home to rape her. Inflicting injuries on herself. Ill to put her husbands exgirlfriend behind bars. What is more, at least for a few months, Authorities Say that she succeeded. And someone whos innocent gets arrested and charged with a crime, thats not just a bad day. It is a nightmare. It needs to be made clear in the media and in cyberspace. This hadley is an innocent victim of a diabolical scheme. What do you mean nobody diabolical in this scheme . Diabolical something even. Its something that that might do. Your theory was that is right. Youre sorry that your theory was wrong. Absolutely. Its a terrible thing to accuse an innocent person. But the apology is enough . Where county authorities during a walk, and say we did this terribly wrong. I appreciate it apologies, but the apologies dont rebuild your life. The apologies dont undo what has been done. [crying] i will carry this around for the rest of my life. To attempt to get justice for michelle, her lawyer filed a lawsuit against angela diaz, diaz, and the city of anaheim. In 2021, the city, without admitting liability, agreed to pay michelle 1,790,000. Ian diaz and angela diaz reached separate settlements with michelle. Anaheim police and our detective didnt pretty situation. Angela diaz did. What we had to do, as the circumstances came about, as the evidence presented herself, after i continue to exonerate michelle. In october 2017, angela pleaded guilty to felony charges, including kidnapping, false imprisonment, perjury, forgery. She was sentenced to five years. This diaz does speak not only punishment, but needs help. She appears to be devoid of any sense of empathy or compassion to others. Any kind of realization as to the impact to what actions have on another persons life. One other thing angela lost besides her freedom was her husband, ian. He had their reginald. Angelas Defense Attorney believed ian deserved a closer look. The failure to investigate that adequately, the role of ian diaz in, it is a serious concern. We reach out to ian hoping to speak to him, but got no response. Turns out that federal prosecutors also had questions. After investigating his role in the scheme, they charged ian diaz with conspiracy to commit Cyber Stalking, Cyber Stalking and perjury. And march 2023, a former u. S. Marshal was convicted on all counts and sentenced to ten years and one month. He has filed an appeal. When we last sat down with michelle, her personal struggle was far from over. I struggle to rekindle the spirit of an innocent young woman whose life was changed forever by something diabolical. I dont think theres anything more evil and finding a girl who believes in the best in humanity and who loves other people deeply and making her question who she is, making her question her fate in humanity.
