look for this woman s body and not been able to find it. the harris family babysitter, a woman named barb affair, testified that she was the one who found michel van parked at the end of the long driveway. she goes into the house, and she yells, is michele here? because her car is at the end of a driveway. and the defendant, without missing a beat, he just said, we better go get the car. according to the babysitter, cal didn t seem surprised. doesn t ask are any questions about the keys. like he knows that the keys are in the van. this is an into of a person s reaction. yeah, you are right. but it is all of these hundreds of little things that convinced me that he is just not acting like someone would act if they didn t know what had happened to their wife. later that morning, when new york state troopers talked to cal, they too made note of his demeanor. he seemed kind of unconcerned. he was more concerned with
by failing to join the search for michelle. that was nonsense said his aunt mary. cal was simply trying to keep it altogether for his small children. there were dozens, maybe hundreds of experts scouring the area looking for her and there was one person taking care of these four kids. that alleged motive that cal was worried the dealerships would take a hit because of the divorce? not so, said cal s side. his lawyer told him michelle couldn t touch the business and that any way before she vanished michele had decided to accept cal s settlement offer, $740,000. she had indicated to numerous people she was happy with the settlement. besides, said aunt mary. it was plenty of money to go around. and no amount of money would have made cal say, oh, for $2 million i m just going to wipe her out. then there was the blood.
bomb. eller where, what s going on here? there is something else about this you should know. the night michelle harris vanished was not just any night. it was september 11th, 2001. things are in some kind of disarray. so they were. and so, nobody was paying much attention to the disturbing events up here around a little owego new york. troopers have all been sent to new york city. there is a skeleton crew left at all of the stations. back then tumulty was a senior investigator the new york state police. she took the call warning of september 12th. with did you do? i sent to investigators over to talk to calvin harris, and i said a uniform trooper up to the house. cal harris opened up his house to them. he said, whatever you need, look wherever you need to. look we have carte blanche. i want this to be solved. i want to know what happens. that morning investigator knew only this.
keene s face. i came in the courtroom thinking the defendant was going to sentenced, it ended up being more of my being on trial. who on earth had the power to make this happen? he did. kevin tubbs. i know that she was there, okay? i know she was. kevin tubbs. a plain spoken farm worker back then, was hauling hay and why was he so important? because after six years during which tuff s war he barely registered the fuss over the harris case, he picked up a paper and saw the story of cal s conviction, and. i seen that and, you know, i started, like, recalling, you know, thinking like, oh, my god. just like that! he suddenly knew, he said, that what he saw the morning after 9/11, the morning michelle harris disappeared, was important. it
she, not so much. she had a room downstairs and she called it the trucker room. there was gonna be a party or a picnic or whatever, she would throw it. take it down to the checker room. and she told friends and family, he had a temper, a controlling way. once back in 1996, she called her sister and law from a closet. terrified. he had a gun outside the closet, and she was inside hiding. what did you hear about that? he was out, there are a pumpkin i guess, and he was racking the pop action up and down. telling her to come out. cal later denied it was true that he was fighting or threatening michelle with again. then in 1999, michelle learned how it was having an affair. she was devastated. but not ready to end the marriage. and cal said he wasn t either. michelle said that you know, we can work through this, but you gotta get rid of the girl. she worked up at the cortland dealership. they did what they courtesy of age the marriage. it didn t work.
