that s what? that s bull? that s bull, yeah. you had no idea what he was going to say. that s correct. rachel said she didn t know that dan had murdered sam and julie until he called her from his jail cell to confess. and that s first time you knew about it? that s correct. investigators found more reasons to suspect rachel. for example, the way she echoed dan s claim that sam was having family problems. sam s parents and friends all say that was a lie. your repeating that story is being taken by police and prosecutors as an example of you continuing to advance a narrative that your boyfriend set up to make the murder happen. well, two things. i told them that, yeah, dan said it, but also i think sam confirmed it. like sam also told me that or confirmed it in some way. i don t understand why people think it s odd that i would use the same language or terminology that dan had used. because obviously i d heard it, you know. detectives also wondered why,
that wasn t guilt? that was acting, and, you know, you sit there and like you think of anything that s made you upset throughout the day or week when you re trying to cry for a scene. and that s what i was doing. and it was because i had had a stressful day, i guess. but that crying episode wasn t the only thing investigators found odd. after the two performed in nine that night, dan was back at home texting from sam s cell phone, ultimately luring julie kibuishi to sam s apartment. sam had a flip phone which had a very different look from dan s smartphone. you never noticed that the phone he was texting on was not his regular phone? no, i didn t. and then there was the couple s shared computer in the apartment. the computer on which police later found searches for how to hide a body and quick ways to kill people. you ever see any indication that he had searched for anything relating to murder or
how how did your dna get on her? that i don t know. dna doesn t just fall off. i don t know. okay. i didn t touch her. i didn t do anything. and then, something out of the blue. what did you see? saw two gunshots in her head. and i saw her pants like ripped and cut. i saw like [bleep] you written on the back of the shirt. was the seasoned actor suddenly forgetting his lines? where were the two bullet wounds? i don t know. sam said he shot her twice. okay. and i saw but you just i didn t see you just told us you saw two bullet wounds. you were no. standing over her. no, no, no, no. whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, stop. okay, okay. how did your dna get on her? i was standing over the body. i saw two bullet wounds to her head. it s exactly what you said, dan. you can t even keep your lies straight. listen, he said he shot her twice. when i walked in i saw two bullet holes to
needed to go to his parents house to get his things. he returned in time for them to head to the theater for that night s show. and by all accounts, both dan and rachel s performances in nine that evening were on their marks. maybe even too good. during this emotional scene on stage, captured on this video, rachel broke down in tears. some of her fellow cast members later told police that crying on cue was unusual for this amateur actress. and some of them speculated she was crying because she already knew sam herr was dead. people who think i m guilty and are looking for some sort of justification i think are clinging to that. but i just think that s utterly ridiculous. so the tears you shed on stage, that was acting?
he s like, i can t talk about it here, we need to get the [bleep] out of here. they rushed out of the apartment, dan said. and as they drove sam dropped a bombshell. he s like, there s a dead body in my apartment. dan said sam told him everything. he s like, okay. basically as soon as you left me, i started doing some drugs and drinking heavily because i was very depressed about my family. according to dan, sam started looking at photos of his friend julie and became upset. then when julie came over i said, what did you do? he s like, i got a gun. he asked for sex. he was pretty [bleep] up. she said no, then he just shot her twice in the head. dan said that at first he couldn t believe it. i m really like, you re totally [bleep] me right now. julie is like a friend. why the [bleep] would you do this? he s like, because i was not in my right frame of mind. and then, dan said, sam threatened him. he s like, you rat me out, i m going to [bleep] kill you. better yet,
