[speaking non-english] he immediately caught on his radio, earlier that morning he had seen an alert, the coast guard was searching for an american passenger missing from a cruise ship the day before. [speaking non-english] there seemed no doubt, this was mickey. [speaking non-english] as they approach her, body the captain said his crew was careful not to touch her. [speaking non-english] they brought her body on to the boat, and comfort her with a sheet. they then met up with the coast guard, and her body was moved to their boat. [speaking non-english] journalist marco heard about the grim discovery, i was very surprised, and that was the moment in which we started following and covering this case. and, the body was taking to the as a small town near the coast in southern italy, that is where italian authorities opened their investigation, and
place while they are alive, and once you see it, you may not want to leave. well, mickey did not make it to naples. now, he has definitely wanted to leave. he took a cab to the naples airport, he booked him a flight to florida where he lived. all of this while he was still missing. that would not last. coming up, i could not believe it at all. it is like, how does this happen? a sudden discovery at sea. i was in shock, disbelief. nothing i would have ever imagined could have prepared me for this. when dateline continues. n dateline continues oh, wow. but we got to sell our houses. well, almost perfect. don t worry. just sell directly to opendoor. close in a matter of days. get your free offer at opendoor.com if you have diabetes, then getting on the dexcom g6 close in a matter of days. is the single most important thing you can do.
wasn t the only one who took advantage of his kindness. there was also bill price. the friend who turned on him. and of course, amy lyn. lonnie called her a gold digger. said she was lying. and said that bill price put her up to it. i don t trust any of them. didn t trust any of them, and don t trust any of them when it comes to a relationship. i did not expect her to make her lies about me again. lonnie said that amy wasn t the only person telling lies about him. there was also someone he met behind bars. someone who was prepared to tell the jury quite a story. back in april of 2014, a year after lonnie was arrested for mickey s murder. the orange county, da s office got a call. and inmates name tony. a frequent flyer in the criminal justice system, was requesting an emergency landing. sergeant don set up a meeting. so tony had told us that he
had been dating, until he decided to patch things up with mickey. his wife missing off a cruise ship, he flies home, not to visit his friend, but to the home of the other woman, i mean, if you are lonnie, and it s like putting a target on you, and saying please investigate me. absolutely. the first thing out of my mouth was, do you know how this looks? you said i need to consult. i said, it is like i m talking to a moron. as sharp in attorney as he was, he seemed tone deaf to how his actions would play. the initial impression was, the guy is not quite right. the fbi said he seemed almost too eager to show agents he had no marks on his body. he volunteered to disrobe for, them to try and convince the agents that you know, he
