asleep when police believe debbie must have been killed. his kids said that they didn t hear him leave the house and they were there to at the time. there is no evidence that they ve ever been at the crime scene. did you find any dna? no. did you find fingerprints? harris? anything? no. but then they just begun to uncover the troubling secrets of dave and debbie hawk. coming up. of family divide. i don t believe that he would be capable of doing something like this. my suspicion was growing stronger and stronger. when dateline continues.
arrived at the house, said the investigator, somebody killed debbie. we kept up hopes, obviously for the family s sake, but it was clear that she was not alive based on the crime scene. investigators poked around debbie s life history, looking for clues. she was very talkative, friendly, likable. always was the life of the party. this is debbie sister, diane, who were called how friends set her up on that blind date years ago. firecracker. he was the date. dave hawk. she was short and attractive and a lot of fun. pretty good sense of humor. you would say something in man, she would pop back with something that you didn t quite expect. they were married within a year, they built a home among
used a ladder to get out from the window and got someone to give him a ride to debbie s house and entered her bedroom. i think he tried to surprise her and she screamed very loudly and he struck her with something. more than once. at that point, i assume that he suffocated her. then, said the prosecutor, he must of dragged his body to the garage. put her into her own van, disposed of her somewhere, then, drove the van to fresno and left it in a high crime zone. how did he get back home? that accomplice, said the prosecutor, must of picked him up and driven him to the 40 miles back to his farm. but really, there was no body, there was no dna, no forensic evidence to show dave had even been at the murder scene. everybody in town seem to have a theory, apparently the prosecutor did to, but was that proof? the state tried to build a bridge from dave s alleged financial crimes to the murder,

summer of 2006 without seeing those purple ribbons, a vivid reminder of debbie hawk the mother of three, vanished from her home in california leaving only traces of blood. before long, in her absence, debbie was famous as if everybody in town had known the woman whose children so loved. you walked into a room and she brought ended. she was all for her family in her children. these were her parents, hard worker. to me she was perfect. she was the perfect daughter. i dearly love her and mr.. a lot of lives have been shattered because of her demise. demise, yes. no getting around it now. in july of 2006 the case was reclassified for a missing person to homicide. a formality, really. they knew from the moment they
