but as with so many people, the neurauter family ran into lean times, diminished prospects during the great recession. lloyd moved out of state to find work as an engineer. what happened is lloyd, it was a tough time in corning, new york, and he took a job in new jersey. michele stayed behind with the girls out in the country in corning. but the separation put a strain on the marriage, and in time michele and lloyd divorced. she was always positive and going to make the most of everything, and then one day out of the blue she called me and said we re divorced. like okay. right, it was very random. after the divorce, michele sold the farm and the kids split up. the oldest went to live with her dad in new jersey, while karrie and the youngest daughter stayed in corning with mom in a new house. but the divorce was hard on everyone. karrie and her mom sometimes butted heads. the arguments could get heated.
officers searched the home. they found no suicide note. and the house was empty. daughter karrie was away at college, but the youngest, who lived there with michele, was nowhere to be found. no 14-year-old was discovered. so where is this child? that was one of the first concerns. it turned out the youngest was actually with karrie at school in rochester 100 miles away. police learned that when karrie called them herself after a friend gave her the shocking news. my mom hung herself. we are looking into it. can you give me any insight into what might have happened? i don t know. i decided to go home. karrie told police she had stopped by the house that night. when i got there, they were freaking out. in karrie s words they had a fight. her mom went yelling and screaming. karrie told investigators she stormed out of the house,

paired with swat teams. had a group ready to search the car. another group to search carey s apartment. have everybody but fish and wildlife. on a multi state and federal level. in new jersey, two fbi agents appeared at lloyd s workplace. he agreed to meet with them in a conference room. the agents gave him an update on the case. the medical examiner determined it to be a homicide, not a suicide. my god. and in conjunction with that, i want to ask you, did karrie have something to do with her death? no. i just don t think karrie has it in her to kill another person. can you think of something, whether it was things get out of hand. she gets in a fight. it s a self-defense thing? i mean, can you see that happening with karrie? it s hard to imagine. but can i picture it? i can.
she saw no other alternative. when did you guys discuss it was supposed to look like a suicide? the first time he told me about this. then she told investigators what her father did. he said to me be quiet, and then put the rope around her neck and hanged her. karrie s job was to disable any security devices and to distract her younger sister, asleep downstairs. totally unaware of what was going on. she woke up. so i had to take her out. i was freaking out. i didn t know what was going on. then i put her in my car. now, we had the framework of the story together now. i mean, what a bombshell. in the room and the ears that are listening at this point. at that point we re shell-shocked. at last the authorities had enough to arrest lloyd. he d
