moore said brad left the diner, got into a red car with washington plates and drove off. moore said the driver was a woman and that he didn t recognize her. brad s car was still in the diner s parking lot and there were no signs of foul play. he loved his family, there was no problem. and there was never any indication that there was anything in his mind remotely related to leaving his family. i knew that they didn t know our family, the dynamics of the family, and just to hear people saying, you know, maybe he did just run off and they didn t know him. brisbin and the moore families had been friends for years. larry s wife, shelly, worked with brad. shelly coached the girls high school basketball team and brad coached the boys . investigators heard rumors that brad and shelly were having an affair.
investigation by carefully examining larry moore s truck. he allowed me to search the pickup and it was immaculate. when i went around to the camper, i noticed he was patching holes in it with a putty knife. inside the camper, investigators found bullet holes in the floor and in the liner underneath. they also found a bullet fragment from a .357-magnum pistol. larry told police he once tried shooting a mouse in the camper while on a hunting trip. but something caught the eye of investigators. a small piece of what appeared to be tissue on a window curtain. about the size of a quarter. there s no way to describe it other than it looked like a piece of chicken skin or something like that. being unsure what it might be, he took that the entire curtain with the tissue on it,
moore also led police to a gravel pit a few miles outside of west yellow stone where they unearthed brad s body. he didn t tell us anything about the homicide. when we did find brad s body, larry did turn a little pale and go and sit in a vehicle, but he never did tell us the real reason or the story behind how it actually happened. a forensic examination of brad s body confirmed what forensic scientists had told the jury in court two years earlier. the determined cause of death was multiple gunshot wounds to the head and upper thoractic region, in other words, the chest area or the back. even though moore led police to the body and the murder weapon, he never confessed. until now. in an exclusive letter to the producers of this program, he admitted his guilt.
i don t believe so. we talked to reene and she didn t think there was an affair. we talked to shelly and she denied one. the only other person that could really say was missing. coincidentally, shelly and brad disappeared two days before brad disappeared. shelly said her alleged affair with brad was a figment of larry s imagination. i truly believed he thought we were having an affair. she actually pointed to larry as having done something to brad because of some of the domestic violence against her and the fact that he had accused her of having an affair with brad. a few weeks after brad s disappearance, a letter from brad arrived at police headquarters. he said he was alive and well and living in washington state. but after seeing the letter, police weren t too sure.
