wanted to have fun and we always had to pause and take a picture, which kind of got annoying after a while, but looking back, it s nice to see the picture, i guess. the mom, connie, loved being with her kids so much, that as they grew older, she found a job taking care of toddlers at this day care home. but on september the 23rd, 2010, as connie was leaving her job for the day, her life and family were quite literally blown apart. a thunderous explosion rocks an east county neighborhood. the first thing i said to myself when i heard the explosion was oh, my goodness, what was that? teddy williams is the owner of the day care home. so i ran out the gate. i come to this point and i stopped because connie s car is rolling at full speed and smacked into my van. i ran around her truck, and this is where i found connie, right here, on her side, in the
september 2010 may well be remembered as hoagland month, for san diego s busy bomb squad. this picture perfect family suddenly seemed to be the target of a relentless campaign of terror. first there was the cell phone device placed inside a fed-ex pack found just down the street from the hoagland home. then there was the pipe bomb that detonated inside connie hoagland s pickup. and now there was a mysterious fed-ex box addressed to jonathan hoagland but delivered to his high school. i guess it had something to
trace of themselves. no fingerprints, no dna. the only real clues were found on the fed-ex envelope, duct tape and soot, suggesting the bomb might have fallen off of the underside of a car. and so, two weeks later, when connie s truck blew up at the day care home, investigators immediately wondered were these two sophisticated bombs really the work of terrorists? or was all this personal? we went through all those gamuts and we had a lot of people just going out chasing every lead there was trying to get this stuff done. and while he was still at the crime scene, detective luke had what seemed to be an odd visit from an old colleague, eric stellmacher. the former commander of the san diego fire department bomb squad. that s luke to the left of your screen and stellmacher on the far right. he was the first one to contact me as soon as i got on the scene. i says, what are you doing here? he tells me he had retired to colorado, came back to visit some friends here in town and he
connie s truck, making it clear this was an intentional act, a car bomb, which got investigators wondering if it was the work of terrorists. almost immediately when we came on scene, we made a plan of how we wanted to sweep the area. and what we were doing was looking for secondary devices, so we didn t walk into an area and actually get hit by another device of some sort. robert luke of the san diego county sheriff s bomb squad and atf agent matt beals were the lead investigators. they quickly learned that something about the day care may have made it a target. on that particular day care center, we were aware that there were other law enforcement officials who had their children in that particular home during the day. was it possible someone was out to kill cops and their kids? if so, connie, who always parked in front of the day care home, could have been the perfect yet unwitting delivery system for the bomb. they were looking for any known or suspected domestic terrorist
