where peggy worked? where peggy worked, yes. so peggy knew all about this? she helped him. for five months bill hill says he struggled under the weight of that confession and then in late july 2004 his conscience finally got the better of him. i decided to make my first call. your first call? to whidbey island. to the police. yes. to the island county sheriff s i felt guilty i was giving up my friend, but i knew something had to be done. within days of that call detectives mark plumberg and mike beach were sitting face-to-face with both their tipster bill hill and their suspect, the artist formerly known as buck naked. coming up, the interrogation gets tough. you know what you told bill. the guy is falling apart over the guilt he s carrying around because you told him what you did.
the shooter, he said, was his best friend. i asked him, again, to call the next day. and he said, i have to work, but i can call on thursday. and i said, ok, well, i ll be here waiting. and he almost whispered, the shooter is jim huden. josh mankiewicz: jim huden, in the age of google, that was all the break mark plumberg needed. by the end of the day, the detectives knew that jim huden lived in south florida and played in a band. and according to the band s web site, one of its members was retired air force. and so the next time the caller phoned, detective beech was ready. he was asking me, were you able to do anything with what i gave you? and i said, well, yeah. but i think i m looking at a picture of you. and the phone went quiet. and he goes, you guys are good. i go, we re not good. it was just simple google searching. josh mankiewicz: at last, the detectives had a solid lead one that raised plenty of questions. who was this jim huden?
