dateline. this is the entrance to the park where richard was killed. the gunman laid in wait in the secluded dark place at night. one way or another, that s an execution. absolutely. they were a busy married couple, meeting up for a romantic valentine s night rendezvous. but that night, someone had other plans. he s been what? he s been shot! before she even arrived, her husband was dead. i could see him laying on the ground. i couldn t think of a soul who would want to harm this man. then, someone let a secret slip. soon, people were questioning a suspect with a motive who had suddenly changed his look. and in fact, when he showed up that morning, he was beardless. there was only one problem, he had a rock solid alibi. where did that leave you? worried about my case. that is when the phone rang, a tip, a tire track, and a case one detective would never forget. there was a shot in the dark, but i took it. hello, and welcome to dateline. it wa
confided about problems in the marriage. susan had noticed that john was getting a lot of cell calls. i think she became particularly alarmed when he didn t answer it and finally told her that it was a patient and that she was down on her luck and having hard times and she was just helping her out. the patient as susan discovered was a stripper at a nightclub. susan demanded to see john cell phone bill, and when she got a hold of it, her worst fears seem to be realized. whoever this woman was, there were way too many calls to and from her. she gets the bill, and she finds a huge number, and i m talking close to 100 phone calls to this phone back and forth to john, and she gets very suspicious and questions john about it. jon had an explanation for his wife. the patient had been having serious psychological problems and even threatened suicide. john, the good doctor was simply trying to council her, and while he may have stepped over his boundaries professionally, he said he nev
record of outgoing cell calls. four major carriers on the tower, thousands of calls. but, what number should look for? why not try hunch he had all along. stacey s involved somehow. you have this third vehicle at the scene, you have overkill with the way richard died. so, based on all of those things, a murder for hire starts crossing your. mine franklin s idea was to compare the numbers tower on the phone numbers on stacy s personal contactless. the best source of information, i felt i, had was stacey s contactless. it was 250 contacts, i think. so, if you can find any phone call coming from the crime scene that happened to be on her contactless, that would give you a big yes, that would give me some direction. a lot of numbers to compare. but then he got lucky.
time line for murdaugh, it all comes down to time death. and misty, it was pretty stunning when murdaugh decided to testify. a lot of people didn t believe it. it s not something you see every day in a murder trial. how do you think he has fared thus far? do you think he s helped his cause? or do you think he s made the prosecution s case even easier? i actuallied, he did a good june on direct examination. that s the cell calls. you give your narrativeful something that you practiced with your attorney. i do not think he helped himself on cross. and again this time of death, that will be the critical component. he didn t need to testify to establish that. that would be based on the evidence that was already on the record. and in his cross-examination, he was evasive. he had selective memory. he seemed to remember very clearly facts and circumstances that matched his narrative, and
till 9:30, because, that is when stacey arrived and found richard. why start looking at 7 pm? it was apparent to me that the gunman laid in wait for richard. and so, my way of thinking, was if he sitting there waiting in the secluded dark place at, night he s gonna sit there and tell the or maybe he ll make a phone call. i had no idea. if the color called anybody, it should show up in the tower record of outgoing cell calls. four major carriers on the tower, thousands of calls. but, what number should look for? why not try hunch he had all along. stacey s involved somehow. you have this third vehicle at the scene, you have overkill with the way richard died. so, based on all of those things, a murder for hire starts crossing your. mine franklin s idea was to compare the numbers tower on the phone numbers on stacy s personal contactless. the best source of information, i felt i, had was stacey s contactless. it was 250 contacts, i think. so, if you can find any phone cal
