focused on. sitting in my office, i had a pile, about this big of all of the dodge daytona s registered in pennsylvania at that time. but not the salika? no. why not go through both of them in the database? i do not have an answer for you for that, i think that they felt like, based on the information that they had, the dodge was the way to go. investigators now believe that raymond rowe drove that car passed christy s often. we discovered that he worked in very close proximity to where christy s apartment was. stedman says it s possible that raymond rowe was the peeping tom that christie s friends chased just months before her murder. but what if haunts them. the thing that bothers me is that, like, what if it was him? if i would have caught him. then. it gets you upset, just thinking about it now? yes. investigators also knew that raymond rowe might have spotted christy in one of the downtown clubs. like that saturday before her
next to them, dagger had always been a man of mystery. he didn t talk about his life, or work. their imaginations run wild. he either hired a hitman. right. or, it was revenge. it was something to do with him. it was somebody that wanted to get back at him, for whatever reason. there was no other logical explanation for us, at the time. we were terrified. but, investigator s didn t buy the hitman angle. professional hit man do not get in hand to hand physical combat with their victim. they certainly don t leave multiple dna samples behind. you wouldn t think that anybody would do it at 7:15 in the morning, in her apartment. there would be better ways to do it. it s not consistent with the professional hit. so, police need to consider
other men that she may have crossed. her friends did mention one incident, from that saturday night. they ran into somebody who dated another one of their friends. it was not a good guy. we called him out on it. they believe the man had been abusive to their friend. and even killed or dog. we yelled puppy killer. oh my gosh, how did he react? he was scary. he was a sociopath. big, scary. so did, you tell the police about him as well? when you talk about a motive, that s something we latch on to. we thought, christy angered him by calling in this name, in a very public place. police looked into it, but eventually cleared him, too. in the meantime, her friends kept trying to help with the investigation. we had our photo albums, and we would go through the guys in the photo albums, and we would give them their names. as it happened, police were already interested in someone else.
christy s longtime boyfriend. police brought him in for questioning. they found out dagger had a secret. he had a wife. he was married, so he was high on the suspect list. i can tell you, just talking with the investigators, they were convinced that he this was him. but, dagger insisted, it wasn t. he said, when chrissy died, he was hundreds of miles away, in virginia. where he recently moved with his wife. christy s friends were stunned. she never mentioned that dagger was married. they weren t sure that she even knew. now, they have to wonder of her decision to break things off with him, two days off before her death, had doomed. or he may have not alike. that she was devoted to him. i m sure, that would be a loss for him. it was years. you don t just cut that tie, and have not meet anything. when they heard that they had shown up at her school.
she was leaving, and we were still with no answer. vince took up the cause, staying in touch with police. even putting up a billboard, looking for any new leads. but, nothing. just hitting this dead end all the time, it was just extremely frustrating for us, as a family. but, a breakthrough was coming. a new way to analyze dna, and catch criminals. a new way to find christy s killer. coming up we re looking for the pieces of the dna, for that person s eye color, hair color, face shape. could a dna breakthrough break the stalemate in christie s case. he can look at all like this? right. when dateline continues. in my ozempic® tri-zone, i lowered my a1c, cv risk, and lost some weight. announcer: ozempic® provides
