capacity, he said it was for home security. before the shooting he called another friend and left a voice message saying, hey, it s, this is jared, i had some very good times and peace out. later. the shooting happened about ten hours after that. shepard: what more have we learned about the morning of the shooting? the morning of the shooting jared s father saw him pull a black bag out of his car and put items in the pockets of his hoodies. dad chased him but couldn t catch him but drove around looking for him. he saw him flee into the desert. he showed up at a circle k and got a cab. the clerk saw him pacing and looking at his watch and at one point said it s 9:25. i ve got time. gabrielle giffords didn t arrive until 10:00 a.m. when he got to the safeway parking lot, a giffords intern handed him to clipboard to sign up for the event. that s one someone yelled gun,

could call it against france. also the women s 4x400 relay and that was a huge one for the u.s. to win as well. and then you mentioned david boudia. he won diving medal. he won gold. and that was a big deal because the u.s. before these games had a 20-year medal drought when it came to diving. and so, now we re bringing some attention back to diving, and then also, the men s 4x100 meter relay, somewhat of a disappointment but not really, the u.s. won silver in that one. but, they were hoping for gold but the jamaican team, with usain bolt, fastest man in the world, man they just couldn t catch him. and afterwards they asked usain bolt about it. he said, yeah, the u.s. has got some work to do. we ll see them in four years. okay, laying it down right there, the gauntlet to the united states. closing ceremony unfortunately it is here, it is tonight, and what do you expect, what are you hearing right now? well, back here at the stadium, you know, 80,000 people in that stadium, it s exp

dumb? yeah, it does. to believe that the police would tell you the truth about something like that? he s been playing games for 0 years with us. 30 years with us. you think we re going to shoot straight with you? i don t think so. so, naturally, the police lied and told the killer they couldn t trace a disk to him and waited to see if he would fall for it, which he did. rader s last communication was a computer disk filled with more taunts and puzzles. he sent it to a local television station. the police were able to trace it to a dennis and a computer at rader s church. by googling the church name and dennis, the police quickly zeroed in on dennis rader. what nailed him ultimately was the last floppy disk. what nailed him was his hubris. he went too far. police also used a surveillance tape from that home depot to figure out that the person who dropped off the btk letter was driving a car registered to dennis rader s son.
