we drove out there i m parked. and we do the same thing we usually did. talked, kiss, stuff like that. it was just about five in the morning, said brad, when he drove back to town and parked across the street from susie s apartment. did you guys make out or anything, before? probably for five minutes, yeah. before she exited the truck? yeah. she got out, walked back to her across the street to her place. like she normally does. i know she was at least halfway across the street when i turned and started backing out, so she was that close to getting into that apartment. brad swore he drove straight home and went to bed. and then brad cast suspicion. elsewhere. right do you know or susan s at? i have no idea where she is. i wish i did. okay. where do you think she is, if you had to guess? my guess would be ted . i can t help but think he had to be behind this somehow. and there was one more thing, said brad.
the kids were sufficiently independent to get themselves up and leave for their respective activities. but from susie, not a word. across town, sister in law val hadn t heard yet that susie failed to come home. we had a craft show in town and i thought maybe she would want to come with me. hey, it s val i m down at spring fling just wondering if you are coming down? when she didn t respond that morning, i thought that was kind of odd. when i was actually actual craft show iwhen i got the call from the rest rusty. rusty rusty limesand, val s, susie s little brother. what did he say? he told me that the kids couldn t find susie when they woke up. and that everybody was just worried because this was in susie and she would never just not tell her children or be there for them.
in the town the size of glendive, the police were keenly aware of susie s history. they ll be six months prior at the hands of soon to be ex-husband ted. i had a little insight and kind of knew the dynamics. but then val told the chief susie s life had just become even more complicated. the night before she disappeared, said val, susie was with another man. a guy named brad, who she said she was crazy about. and who had to have been the last person to see her before she vanished. did you ever wonder about brad and whether he was capable of any bad things? when she went missing, i wondered about everybody. everybody was a suspect. everybody was, your mind just continues to play and play and play, differences scenarios of what could have happened. and where she is. and while that question remained unanswered
have a seat brad holzer came in for an interview. we appreciate you coming in. no problem. brad told the police that he and susie actually had quite a long history. how long have you know susan? well, we went out in high school. okay. she was 16, i was 19. probably went out for a couple months, is all. then they lost shots for nearly two decades, said brad, until st. patrick s day 2008. just three weeks before she disappeared. when their eyes met downtown. out of blue, came up to me and said hi. and i knew who she was right away. record nicer immediately. and in the weeks since? brad said he and susie spend every possible moment together. though given her kids and their respective and marital issues, it was complicated. the night before she disappeared, said brad, susie had been drinking with a couple of girlfriends. before he picture up and they drove out of town to sit by the yellowstone river. and then, that s where we were from going on 10:45 or 11, un
quite so fast. but here olivia reager it was a young lawyer than. i just thought, you have to be kidding. this is glendive, she has to be around somewhere. but when susie s brother and sister in law roared around town looking, it only made them more upset. as a kid, when you re younger, you always wish you had things you didn t have. and i just always wished i had a big sister. and when i met susie, she was my big sister. and i guess i just never imagined she wouldn t be in my life. mid afternoon, val and her husband rusty drove over to the glendive police department. they sat down with then captain ty ulrich. they said susie always answers her phone, always. and i went to my office strikes twice and tried to call. and to voice mail.
