were watching gymnastics and i teach my parents and said, i m going to do that. and i think a month later, i rolled into gymnastics. so there it was a supportive environment. and lynn doted on her only son. it might be tried to say this, but she loved him more than life itself. he was the center of her universe. so, after what happened, mark flew out to california right away to come for charlie and fred, and to make funeral arrangements for his only sister lynn. and at the very same time, as if in another world altogether, world devoted to the minutiae of violent crime, detective richard poked around the entrails of this burglary gone bad. he could perhaps ride up a report, and make the bad press go away. but, no richard was a troubled man. we said something is wrong. we feel like something is,
you never think it s going to be? it s surreal. very much so. what is that lost feel? yeah, i can t put it into words it was tremendous, it was awful. i immediately called mark and babbling on the phone, i couldn t even speak. mark was charlie s uncle, lynn s brother. after the initial shock, here is disbelief. then burst into tears right away, i started screaming, i was just stunned. linda grew up in ohio, she was the baby of the family, the only girl. here she is with her two older brothers, john and mark, but lynn was not like them. she was a tentative girl, where is my brother and i were very outgoing.
particular november 8th, california weather, not quite known. and as usual, it was quiet in bixby knolls, in long beach. quiet and, in that quiet, more menacing than anybody understood. as police responding to a call by a proud or waited outside the front door. neither they nor that half awake homeowners as she close the door in their faces, and when in search of a key to the gate in the yard. seconds tick, by the dog barks. the woman didn t return. so the cops, still not getting, it went in, too late. she s attacked and she was killed right there and then while the police officer was on her front porch. just extraordinary. yes. the victim s name was lynn schockner. they found her quite dead just outside
see what he would do. so let s just see if he reaches out to somebody, because now he is scared. back at the restaurant, frank waited for an author signal from the detectives, and the waiter who frequently served the family stopped by to reminisce about lynn. she is very, nice very funny. putting frank in a very uncomfortable spot. there s nothing that anyone can say, he wasn t able to complete his thought. and soon, fred would be having a very different kind of conversation with police. coming up, fred forgot to clean up. he threw his trash in time? no. when dateline continues. n dateline continues and take. it. on. .with rinvoq. rinvoq a once-daily pill can dramatically improve symptoms. rinvoq helps tame pain, stiffness, swelling.
turns out it was fake. even though lynn had lots of real diamonds, right there to be taken, along with other valuable items. if you can do a daytime burglary, and kill somebody, you could make the effort to get the good. stuff but he didn t. so either nick harvey was the world s worst burglar, or the burglary wasn t the point of his visit. the detectives pushed him hard, but he did want to change the story. we were added for hours. we walk out of there saying, this is, done this is what it seems to be. just a hunch of course. no way to prove it. until, 70 miles up the coast, a man picked up the phone to call the police. coming up, a family feud i wrote that line letter, i signed the letter, i handed it to my sister, and i dared her to give it to him. what is that all about? when dateline continues.
