iphone, he was worried i was very concerned that how do we miss something is he the other part of this why is he telling us this? if he is another part of, this wisely fighting this and telling us about the evidence. and that was the key question. why would scott admit to havin incriminating evidence was he trying to outsmart th cops by pretending to be helpful? tua found michele s iphone whe he had it all along? or was he afraid, afraid somebody was trying to set him up which might have been th reason why, scott share this document with detectives this is a temporary restrainin order against gisele esteban inside declaration, both scott and his mother told how thei family was awakened early on morning by scots carla scott went to investigate. i want result, front he hears his mother screaming he goes inside gisele is insid of his house, he is inside o his room tempering with this computer some familiar
as the le family searches th hills, ritchie got a ver strange phone call from scott. who was sounding out of breath sad to believe that h thinks he had found michel s phone. i asked him, where do you find michele s phone he said, in the back of m car. coming up - at first police doubt scot story. did we miss something, is h had the other part in this or, was he gisele s nex victim did you ever have any concern about scott safety yes, and we advised scott that you need to be concerne for your safety as well. you deserve to die for your lies, and does she, this i your last week when datelin continues. hey hon. hey dad.(sniffs) that smell could be 8,000,000 odor causing bacteria. good thing adding lysol laundry sanitizer kills 99.9% of bacteria that detergents leave behind. clean is good, sanitized is better.
to identify who killed her. during the memorial day weekend in 2011, when detective heard the name about someone whose name was michelle le, was this a break in his case? this is almost the same, named the same circumstances, it was bizarre. michele s family, also hearing about phuong le. when they met with detectives for the first time, 48 hours after michele s disappearance, they asked the dreadful question. could michel s case be connected to the phuong le murder? the community brought it up, and thought it might be linked. we brought that up with the hayward police. they said, yes, we looked into it, but we don t think there is a connection. there was a wash of relief. the detectives told the family they had found michel s car, that it was locked, appeared undamaged. to the family, that was good news. it meant, michelle must be alive, or held somewhere. although, during that sunday meeting, the police gave the impression they still had no idea what had happened to miche
back in hayward, the police may have been accomplishing something, but they were saying nothing, beyond their belief that michele was dead. as far as the family could tell, the police investigation seemed to get nowhere. now, the family s own private investigator seem lost in the weeds as well. hoping to shake loose a lead, they increase the amount of the reward money. from 20, 000, to 40, 000, to 65, 000, to $100,000. all from private donations. much of, it out of the family s own pocket. so, every day was precious, said her brother michael. every day that passed, a missed opportunity to find her. she was always looking out for me. so, this was my time to do everything i could to look out for her. to make sure, what she was going through, she wouldn t have to go through one day longer. you must have had this sense, any day now, you will find, her and bring her back, and everything will be
continued to pursue the case. but, in 2017, a u.s. district court issued a final judgment dismissing their claims. what about ashley s family, can they just accept this and go on? i don t think they will ever accepted. to say that they were distraught would be an understatement. they, i, think truly believe that tom fallis killed their daughter and they are never going to let that go. an idea once so deeply engraved, sure enough will not go away. and tom fallis and his children make a life as best they can. that s all for this edition of dateline. i m craig melvin. thank you for watching. ng ng
