michel s birthday present. it s very unusual, because they usually go out and buy whatever they want. not anymore. that summer 2011, jonesboro real estate was far from recovered, many of the rental properties were underwater, the bank closing in. tenants being forced out of their homes. so if there was anybody upset with mark, it was his tenants, could it be someone like that? and then, an ugly little surprise crawled out of mark s own family. mark and his parents were lost youth at each other over shared property. the private prosecutor heard that mark stat jack was a hothead. jack was very very angry at mark for mishandling this property that they combed together. yes. but it went deeper than that, to a very dark place as you will see. and because of, it mark hadn t spoken to his parents in years. so, when jack showed up at the
been there. we came across a piece of metal that he found with a galvanized iron, or some kind of galvanized metal. and that piece of metal said to him that there was something more going on. did he have any other ideas about what may have happened? he did. he told us that his cousin pete had made some threats where the victim. in the time leading up to the incident. and there is more. paul showed detective david salm s text from peter sent from the right field we are roberto was killed. and it was dated the time before. coming up, the focus she is from the nuts and bolts of electrical explosions to an explosive personality. he was always the one who had something mean to say. he was always the one that hated him. and that was the only reason i could think. why did you hate him? he was arrogant. he flaunted stuff in my face. pete had a reputation for being a real hothead. without hardly an effort, pete
would be a good way of summarizing. odd? yes. on how? you don t hear about a lot of families but you hear about the moore. because they complained about other wings about the family? or at least complain in a way that complain in a way that others will find out about it. he had had a reputation for being a hothead, i knew that since i had been here. he had a lot of mouth. without hardly an effort, pete could (bleep) you off. so when paul came to the authorities and said i think pete is responsible for this, did his suspicion seem plausible? yes. yeah. it did. because we knew he didn t get along with his family, we knew that he had a hothead and access to the property. and for paul to denounce
indication that alec baldwin is responsible is entirely false, is their words. they say, rather, that an actor should be able to depend on their prop masters, armorers, that he bears no responsibility. yeah, but griff, look at the end of the day the two most basic rules, number one you don t point any gun at somebody and on a movie set, you use a fake gun. alec baldwin can t say i m a low level actor. he was not just the lead actor, but he was also the producer, so many of the defenses a low level actor could get away with, alec baldwin won t be able to. griff: that makes it more of a liability then in your estimation? yeah, absolutely. and remember, these jurors are going to walk in on the civil trial with a preconceived notion of alec baldwin. he s a hothead. remember that audiotape where he called his daughter a fat pig and remember he punched a photographer harassment over a
or telling the truth about the man he insisted killed his wife? his daughter, rebecca, backed him up and attacked kevin in her interview with the cops. he was a little hothead. he would come in and throw his weight around. reporter: like the time, she said, kevin tried to goad bill into a fight at the house, siccing the cops on him. he would puff up and get in my dad s face, screaming for him to hit him, please hit me. i ll call the police, and you ll go to jail right now. it was the classic kinda boy crying wolf scenario, because bill apparently hadn t done anything. it was just kevin trying to get bill in trouble and calling 911. reporter: kevin says he didn t goad bill and made that call because bill shoved him. and things got so bad, bill and diane even took legal action to throw him out. diane told him, kevin, don t push me. you re going to see what we can do to get you out of this house. he didn t believe her. i went to my attorney.
