her story. janet, vince s surrogate mom, was horrified when she learned that jessie, the woman who had seemed so good for vince, was now implicated in his murder. i was devastated. i was like, why is she not arrested. did you think she was capable of killing vince? never. never. why? there s divorce. why wouldn t she just get a divorce? do you swear and affirm that the statement you ve given it is true but even with jessie s story and the evidence against jarred, the case was far from closed. an unexpected twist was about to put the whole investigation into a tailspin. did you worry that one or both of them could get away with murder? prosecutors face a major setback. could something else that jessie told police be a lifeline for both the widow and her lover? coming up i was livid. is their case about to collapse? i was devastated all over again. when dateline continues.
his world, a hometown girl named jessie long. vince loved her unconditionally and you could see it. he was happy, he loved her. and janet says he started to settle down, moved in with jessie s family and quickly bonded with her dad, a vietnam vet. he was the one who suggested the military might be a good way for vince to get on the straight and narrow. so, vince joined the army in 2005. he was 21 years old. this is a boy who s gone from baggy pants and spiky hair to now he s going to have the military cut in the uniform. i mean, that s like a one 180 for vince? it is a 180. it s what he needed. you must have been very proud of him? i was always proud of him. i m still proud of him. with vince s career heading in the right direction. he took another big step and popped the question. jessie said yes.
black guy. yes there was. no, we know whose truck was there. everything that the eyewitness said has been true. no. yeah, very true. no. he told her they knew all about her romantic relationship with jarred. jessie admitted she and jarred hung out together, but continued to deny there was anything sexual between them. she said they were friends and he stayed there on the couch and that was it. jessie did admit she and vince were going through a tough time, but she claimed they were working things out. i have always reassured vince that i m not just gonna walk away from you. i m not that person. i m not gonna leave you. we were planning on going to marriage counseling. he actually called friday, before we left. besides, she said vince knew all about jarred. vince knew that he had been
stranded. vince tells his wife that he s going to go check on him. i heard two three popping sounds. he was laying there with what appeared to be several gunshot wounds to the head. her husaban and father of five, dead. i want my mommy. and i want my kids. no one could understand it. the type of person that he was, i don t think he ever had an enemy. or did he? he said, we are now in debt to bad people. we knew that there was another person that needed to be looked at. a winding investigation leading deep into the dark. this sounds like a love triangle? i believe it was. it s horrific. brutal. i was like why. are you kidding me? hello and welcome to dateline. growing up, vince goslyn didn t seem to destined for the military, but that s where he
i would her driving the truck with three kids. and what she said next really got the investigators attention. how often on a weekly basis would you see that vehicle there while vince it was deployed? maybe two or three times a week? as he looked deeper into this potential relationship between jarred and jessie, how serious was it? from what we could gather, they lived together on base. and if sergeant goslyn came home for any reason, then jarred long would leave for a couple of days while he was here. it was stunning. stokes was now convinced jessie was not the devoted army wife she seemed to be. instead, she was at the center of a deadly love triangle. both men in love with jessie. correct. jessie in love with one man? i believe so. to the detective, evidence that jarred and jessie were a couple was piling up. like when police ran the plates of the car jessie was driving the night of the murder. it came back to jessie goslyn and jarred long. they owned a car to
