started yelling, shelley shelley. a young art student murdered. she said, your daughter as been found in blood. and then the phone went dead. this was brutal and sad. the clever killer leaves a blank canvas that had no fingerprints, no dna. yeah. police zero in on three fellow students. the dead girls friend. trying to corner in the hallways at school, texting her on the phone, her boyfriend he had daggers, knives, sorts, who collects that kind of stuff? and her roommate. it felt like a leopard with. you absolutely. you could have been that she sure could have. soon, the dark picture begins to develop. look at this. that s what the whole thing happened. a portrait of the artist says a young killer. you notice the people in there. once there was a quiet little girl in a quiet little town who like to draw. she to the butterflies that floated by her around a plea, texas, like the country, but they pronounce it italy. she drew a but
evening that we thought something might be wrong, because we have not heard from her that was not like her at. what was that like? it was torture. she had a premonition that something was wrong, but i what would happen to shelley? she never goes anywhere. she stays in her room. the only goes out when she has to. so, the next morning, when she still had not called, that s when we both got worried. i think the next morning, cynthia called the art institute. we found out that shelley was and class, and actually, they would not go check on her. they said they can t leave the office a lot to go check on a class and a half or call us. that i recall. then, they phoned shelley sister, shauna. i told them, stop worrying about her, she s 20 years old, she does not want to talk to her mom. i really did not think anything bad would happen to her, so i brushed it off.
and which shelley told her mother she was thinking of breaking up with nathan? that, said the defense gave nathan a motive. but certainly not daniel. cynthia was incensed by the questions she was asked. for them to call me and ask questions trying to make it sound like her conversation with me of wanting to break up with nathan would be the reason why nathan would go and kill her, you know, i didn t want them twisting my words, to make it sound like the things that i said reflective more on nathan unless on daniel. didn t work out for them or did it backfire? it didn t work out because shelley s mother also testified when she was cross-examined by the prosecution that as far as she knew shelley never had that conversation with nathan, so nathan he would ve known? he would ve known. so that kills the idea that that could ve been motive if he
throughout the country. more than 900 people were arrested. and, in the netherlands, the dutch king apologized for his country s role in slavery. he asked for forgiveness in a historic speech that was greeted by cheers during an event that commemorating the 150th anniversary of the abolition of slavery. now back to dateline. ck to dateline i kept thinking, i was and it was a really bad dream, and this wasn t really happening. asleep, it was a really bad dream. and that this wasn t really happening. i couldn t imagine like that ever happening. complete shock. the first stage was denial. that shelley that innocent wisp of a sister had been murdered was almost beyond comprehension. but, maybe worse, quite possibly they were not going to know who did it. the first and most obvious mystery jumped out at the experienced eye of shelley had been did a while.
we ve got a golden ticket. we know who committed well we know one of two people committed this murder. it s not by coincidence that this girl ends up dead and her blood ends up in their apartment in the bathroom. daniel killed her? nathan killed her? or they both killed her. hope for the investigators, dread for our student chris phillips. i live with both of them, and to think that i was living with someone that would do this and then, finally, the lab results came in. dna can from that that blood had come from shelley. and then then you have to sit back, scratch your head, and say, well, i wonder if both these guys did it? and then if you go with that theory, what is a motive? robbery? no. rape? no.
