Good at the data at the time. But oh, my god. Or hers . I said, Oh God, i dont want to do this. She said, get out. And who would take the full for evil . How deep a hole You Dig . Not deep another, obviously. Hello. And welcome to dateline. A Turley Larry Mcnabney had been living fast and loose, but things were finally slowing down for him. He had a thriving law art practice, a wife he adored, and plenty of money. Then, a new friend entered the picture. And a Love Triangle took shape. The murder was a who done it, involving three tangled lives. One of them was hiding a secret identity. But to untangle this Mystery Police needed to know, who was the mastermind pulling the strings . Hairs Keith Morrison with poison. It was september 11th, 2001. Just about everybody knows were they were that awful day. Like the glamorous trio that was traveling north through californias yosemite national park. Even as the rest of the Worlds Attention was focused on new york city, they were intent on their ruin urgent needs. Their desires. Their fears. There are deadly Love Triangle. So, they probably didnt appreciate the passing wonders. The astonishing cliffs. The waterfalls. The giant sequoias. Any more than the one in the backseat. Through fading ice. So anything at all. Here is one of them. His name was Larry Mcnabney. And he was a tall, handsome man. A wellknown and respected attorney from nevada. A personal injury specialist. Made buckets of money. Loved the big life. Loved being in control. There was never a here out of place. There was in dust on his desk. His plan was always in the same spot. Larrys daughter, tavia, was crazy about him. In all of his type a personality. His joy of life. His courtroom presence. Not an ounce of shyness. He commanded the courtroom. Ive been a Trial Lawyer for over 20 years larryslong time friend, fred atcheson, he could open 50 files a month in personal injury litigation. Which were made him a rich man. But nobody is perfect, of course. And for all of larrys unquestioned talents, the man carried around with him a raft of corresponding demons. I know he had a difficult childhood. And that a lot of your personality is shaped when you are a child. And as an adult, larry struggled with alcohol. Women. He married and divorced several times. It was like a void he was trying to fill and he never could fill it. In fact, from time to time, larry had gone on benders and just vanished. Weeks at a time. Everybody worried and wondered. But sure enough, he would show up again. I had a Teacher Meet up once. Yellow, with black letter saying, were is Larry Mcnabney . But then, finally, larry well into his forties, seemed to get his act together for real. He set up a new office in Las Vegas. Everything clicked. Possibly for unattractive reason, as tavia discovered. I went by the office one day and he said, i have someone i want you to meet. He said, this is elisa. Elisa, 17 years younger than larry. And he was in love. And he said, shes just fun and vivaciously. Shes young. And its just we have a good time. Tavia did it stand in the way. She wanted her dad to be happy. I welcomed the new person in. Its my dad, so i didnt want anything that would inhibit me from spending time with him. And he really cared for this woman . He did. Larry and elisa thrived, both personally and professionally. They got married. Elisa became his office manager. They opened up a firm in sacramento, california. Another big success. So, they hired a young, attractive College Student named Sarah Dutra. The outgoing daughter of deeply religious parents. Who soon the came a friend as well as a sort of personal and off his assistance. And together, Elisa And Lowry enjoyed the high life. She was into the same things that larry loved. And style. And they went out and bought Viper Cars together. They also shared larrys newest passion, horses. But larry would show horses and show himself, which fit in with larry looking good and feeling good. Larry could do more of what he liked while young sarah pitched in to help elisa run the Business End of larrys law practice. Just about perfect. Though Larrys Friend fred was a bit of a stick in the mud about it. The fact that she took control of his business allowed him to engage in big drinking and partying. Which is not really what larry needed. No, he didnt need that. Because his appetites would run amok. So, when, after nearly seven years of Marriage Larry suddenly dropped out of sight, close friends were extremely alarmed, at first. After all, had larry gone on drunken benders before. But this time, as days stretched into weeks, it seemed different. Extremely odd. Ginger miller started working at the law from as a secretary in september, 2001. Just about the time larry went missing. Elisa kept The Business going in his absence. But couldnt seem to settle on what the staff should tell people about larry. I was told to tell his kids and different people in his family different things. So, i was told that he was golfing or skin. Someplace they probably couldnt get a hold of him. So it was all obvious bs . Yeah, and then if it was a client i would have to say that he was working on the deposition. He was with another client. Had to fly out. Larrys kids didnt know what to think. I said to my brother, this does it sound right. Why do the stories keep changing . October arrived. Still no larry. Thanksgiving. And december, he was always with family on his birthday. But still no sign of Larry Mcnabney. I didnt get a good feeling. And what i worried about was, had something gone wrong and dad was scared and he took off . Had larry offended the wrong person . Tavia had a friend in Law Enforcement who told her you have to look at it two ways. Either if he is in hiding, hes not going to be happy you found him. Because obviously, hes hiding for a reason. Or, some things happen to him. Meanwhile, back at the office, ginger was hearing things. Worrisome things. Until she just couldnt keep it in anymore. I went to the Sheriffs Department. I wasnt sure what to do. So, i just asked for a piece of paper and i slip it under the window. Detectives got her no, all right. And figured they should have a chat with Elisa Mcnabney. But by the time they went looking for her, just like larry, she was gone. Who exactly was Elisa Mcnabney . And what did she know about her Husbands Disappearance . The investigation heats up when police uncover the dark secrets in elisas past. Coming up she was a person out of a Forties Film new or movie. She was a stunner, physically. But more importantly, she had a control over him that just amazed me. When dateline continues. Youll find better bedtime stories.

By The Dawn of 2002, while the rest of us were getting used to a poor 9 11 new normal, it seemed pretty clear that something very abnormal massive happened to that successful Personal Injury Attorney Larry Mcnabney. Nobody had seen him in five months. Hed never been on a bender for this long. And now, his wife elisa was missing two. By this time, ginger had dropped off her no at the Sheriffs Office and detectives were poking around in the abandon remains of larrys law practice. Talking to employees like Sarah Dutra, the attractive 21yearold Art Student from sacramento state, who worked at the Mcnabney Law Firm as an office secretary. She brought her little dog, ralph, with her to the Sheriffs Office. Sarah told addicted detectives that she and elisa had become close friends and so, she, sarah certainly notice how erratic elisa the came after larry went missing. Things were starting to not seem right. Like, you know, Elisa Wouldnt come to work all the time. You know . Sara confirmed what Ginger Miller said. That elisa kept changing her explanations for larrys whereabouts. Sara said she signed Saw A Elisa Signing Larrys Name on checks and Daytoday Business transactions. I figured it shes keeping this business going for him. So he can go play and do whatever. In early january, 2002, said sarah, elisa planned a trip to arizona to attend a Horse Show. And in the absence of larry, invited sarah to go along. I was going to fly down the next day and then she told me, your tickets been paid. But when sarah got to the airport, the ticket was not paid for. So then you call herself Phone Number and what did you . Get. Nothing it was this number is no longer in use. And that was that, said sarah. She hadnt heard from elisa since. I actually called ginger and i said, Ginger You know, im going to look for a new job. I dont know about you, but elisas gone. Thomas testa was the San Joaquin County prosecutor. Hed handled a number of missing Persons Cases. So when he heard about the case of larry an Elisa Mcnabney, he gravitated toward it. He was an attorney with a case low that just disappeared. This Isnt Someone whos a homeless person who just vanishes and you think maybe they took a granted went to nevada. Testa began by taking a good hard look at elisa. She was a person out of a Forties Film nor movie. In that, she was a stunner, physically. Everyone said that. But more importantly, she had a control over him that just amaze me. She was able to see jump, and the men would see how high. It certainly seemed true larry, so said his old friend fred. She was controlling him to the extent that she was keeping him away from his family and his former friends. Did that include the relationship he had with you . No question about it. You found yourself shut out . Yeah. So did Larrys Daughter, tavia. Elisa completely cut me out of the picture and i was devastated. But why . Why was elisa keeping larry away from his family and friends . What did she have to hide . He called me up once on the phone and said, fred, i dont know who she is. And i thought he meant well, we dont really ever know who our spouses are deep down. And he said no, i dont even know if this is who she is. If her name is what she says it is or anything. By then, said fried, had larry discovered ample reason to stop trusting elisa. He couldnt keep his wallet in his pants. He told you that . Yeah. She would still money out of his wallet. He had to hide his wallet in his own house. Turned out she was also stealing from the law firm. She ripped him off. For how much . Any idea . Over 100,000. Larry told fred all about his travel with elisa. And yet, he kept her around. Not like he hadnt divorced women before, but not this one. Tavia did it get it. I mean, he always said she has this hold over me. And i never understood what that meant. And larrys too fred about not knowing his wife . Well, his suspicions turned out to be true. A little research told detectives that the real woman behind the name Elisa Mcnabney had a considerable criminal rap sheet. Including stolen property, credit card fraud, grand theft. She really had a way of ingratiating herself with men and using her female terms. And she was very, very good at it. She was a true, true Con Artist. So was elisa just conning larry . Surely, thought fried, she wouldnt have done away with him. Would she . It wouldnt make any sense, even for a dedicated Poll Cap to do anything like that because, he was the goose that laid the golden egg. It wouldnt make any sense, whatsoever. It was a Farm Worker who noticed a flock of vultures or blizzards, drifting above one of these grape fields. Saw something. Sticking out of the ground.

Powering possibilities. A remote vineyard up in the northern end of californias central valley. A Firm Worker checking the outer reaches of a giant field of grapes, Couldnt Help but see the big birds reeling around and around. Something out there. Vultures were circling. He spotted the vultures and said he went out to see what they were circling. Investigator Javier Ramos and lieutenant robert bookwalter, worked with the San Joaquin County Sheriffs Department at the time. They were among the first on the scene. Must be a dead animal or something. The lady said that. Thats what he figured he would fine. Just some dead animal out there. But it wasnt a dead animal. The lake that was sticking out of the ground was decidedly human. And soon, Larrys Daughter tavia heard the news. I got a call from the Sheriffs Department. I felt myself get really hot and nauseous. And she said that the body they found, the dental records, it was him. And i remember i never swear and i yelled out those cuss words. And i slim down the phone and i just started shaking. It was a moment in time that ive never felt such anguish. Still wrong even now. It is because i thought i dont know, i thought, i guess i was hoping he was in hiding. Very fortunate that the body was discovered. And now we can move on and investigate it as a homicide. Tavias hopes crushed. Police had ample proof now, five months after he vanished, that larry had been murdered and left to rot out here in the middle of nowhere. There were any Step Wounds or any bullet holes. There were no obvious signs of Larrys Cause of death. So, they looked further and found something very unusual. The medical examiner was able to find out that the cause of death was poisoning with a Horse Tranquilizer. Horse tranquilizer . Yes. Now that was strange. But get this he depended for an extended period of time. However, the body had not decomposed consistent with the timeframe we were looking at. Meaning . Meaning that it was preserved. Kept cold. One of the first things i thought is, where would the person that killed larry, where would they have access to a walk in refrigerator large enough to hold a Human Body . Detectives wanted answers. And so did Larrys Daughter tavia, who sometimes believed she could hear her father in her sleep. When i would go to sleep at night i would wake up and i would hear him calling for me to help him. And i didnt know what to do. I didnt understand what was going on. Sometimes people get a sense of knowing either what or who is responsible. Did you . I knew elisa had done something. Larrys much younger wife, elisa. She vanished a few months after he did and now that larry was dead, she was the Prime Suspect in his murder. Sheriffs deputies and the fbi finally tracked her down in march, 2002, in florida. She cut her hair short. And it changed her name. Elisa was now going by the name of shane ivaroni. And was working as a paralegal at a florida law firm. Elisa was a very smart person. She had i believe 140 iq. She could talk anybody into anything. Right. But now that she was finally exposed for the Con Artists she was and was in custody, elisa decided to tell her story. Starting, at long last, with her legal name. My whole name is laren. Laren my middle name is renee. Renee my maiden name was sims. Sims. And where did elisa come from . A change or you just wanted a different name . No, i left florida. You know, i mean i was a fugitive from florida. Elisa or laren, was from massachusetts and was a mother of two. She was wanted in florida for violating probation on a Burglary And Theft charge. And had been On The Run for nine years, she said. She eventually settled in Las Vegas where she met larry and by this time had changed her name to elisa. She told the police that she was at the Horse Show in arizona when she found out police wanted to talk to her about larry. And so, she took off in her jaguar. Drove from state to state. Where were you headed at this point . Just away. Dont know where. So, with the preliminaries out of the way, now came the big question. What happened to Larry Mcnabney . Elisa, without hesitation, and without even being asked, spilled the beans. And did i kill my husband . Yes, i killed my husband. There it was. No apology. No evasion. She simply confessed to killing her husband, Larry Mcnabney. But, and this was a but with a capital be, that wasnt the whole story. Not even close. Coming up did elisa have help . There was going to throw a whole. Yeah. And i was freaking out. When dateline continues. Breeze drifting on by you know how i feel [man coughing] its a new dawn, its a new day.

Laren Mcnabneys Wife had confessed to murdering her husband and burying his body in a california vineyard. It would have seemed like a straightforward case, if not for what she told investigators next. Elisa was mcnabney a killer, all right, but did she act alone . Here again is Keith Morrison with poison. There is a purity to confession. A real cleansing of the sole. And now after months on the lamp, Elisa Mcnabney, aka renee sims, etc, etc, was finally in custody and unloading the secrets of a lifetime. Didnt hold back. Yes, she killed her husband of nearly seven years. But it was in her idea. I said, i dont know what im going to do. And she said, we have to kill him. And i said, we cant kill him. She said . Who was this other woman who pushed elisa to commit murder . Turned out detectives had already talked with her. Remember Sarah Dutra . The young secretary elisas friend, who came in with her little dogs and was so helpful to the detectives after Larry And Elisa disappeared . Now was elisa saying Killing Larry was sarahs idea. I never would have thought that upon my own. Elisa told the story this way. Larry was a heavy Drinker And Drug user. She was abusive, she claimed. And she feared for her life. One day, she said, she confided in her young friend sarah. Sara said there was just one thing to do. Kill Larry Mcnabney. Now, in this three hour long interview, elisa went into detail after gruesome detail of how she and sarah did it. Elisa larry were at a Lahore Show in los angeles, she said, and sarah flew down to meet them. Or rather to meet elisa, since larry didnt like sarah said elisa. And what did You Guys decide to do with him . We said if we kill him, nobodys gonna miss him. Were you going to do it that day . Or were you going to do it sometime in the future . When were You Guys planning on doing it . Right then. Yeah. That was september 9th, 2001. According to elisa their had already larry had already passed out after inviting a little Horse Tranquilizer on his own, for fun. So, sara decided, according to elisa, to just to give him more. And no one would ever find out. Oh, god, a seemed like a good at that idea at the time. But oh, my god, its so horrible to think of taking someones life. Well, larry said slept said elisa, she and Sarah Score to drops of Horse Tranquilizer into his mouth. But larry didnt die. Instead, the next day on september 10th, larry Got Up. Showed his horse. And then went right back to bed. Next morning hes lying there. And i thought he was dead. And so i weakens It Syrup and i say, i think he said. And she pushes him. And she said, no hes not dead. But he was so heavily drunk he couldnt walk. So we went down The Street and rented a wheelchair. And i got him dress and put him in the wheelchair. And we rolled him out to the truck. And put him in the Back Seat of the truck. And we drove. This by the way was september 11th, 2001. Everyone else in the known world preoccupied elsewhere. While Elisa And Sarah drove north through california with larry slowly dying in the Back Seat of the trunk. We stopped in yosemite, somewhere in yosemite. And sara got out and started digging a hole. While he was a life. Okay . And i freaked out. She was going to throw him in the whole alive . Yeah. And i was freaking out. I said, we cant put him in there, hes a life. We cant do that. So, she said, they drove on. They thought larry would die in the car. But he didnt. So, when they finally made it back to Larry And Elisas home near sacramento, larry was slipping in and out of consciousness. Still a life. And then went 6 00 rolls around in the morning, The Sun starts coming up. And sara sleeps late, you know . And so, i immediately Got Up there. And he was dead. That was the morning of September 12th. And sarah says, well, we cant leave him lying here. So, you know, we take him in the sheet that he was lying on and we wrapped it around him. And then we took Duct Tape and wrapped it around him. And he was in a crouched position. And then, in my garage he had this rough route wine refrigerator, like a regular refrigerator. But he ordinarily kept wine in. So we took the wind out of it. And we took the rocks out of it. And we put him in it. And stuffed Larrys Body in her refrigerator while they decided what to do with him. We talked about bearing him in the backyard. We talked about burying him over at my trainers. We talked about taking him in the desert and burning the body. But they couldnt quite decide. And so, they kept Larrys Body in the refrigerator for three months. And then they decided to take it to Las Vegas. Find someplace there to bury it. How much does he . He weighed about a lot. I have a hard time seeing you to picking up him. But we lay the Trailer Tire down in front of the refrigerator. Open the refrigerator door, lay the Trailer Door down. Slide him out, put him on the trailer. And then back their jack up really close to the trailer. And then it was only like that much difference. So then we just pushed. Off of the tire into the trunk . Exactly. And he was shaped like this, you know . So then we put him in the trump. And he was like this. And we close the trunk. And we went to Las Vegas. On route to Las Vegas, with their two dogs in the Back Seat, is larry in the trunk, along with two shovels. Once there, is sarah hung out at the hotel with the dogs. Elisa went out looking for a Burial Place for larry. But when she started digging, she said, the ground was too hard. And so i went back to the hotel and i told her, i cant do it. And all this time hes in the trunk. You know . And the valets parking us. Its not good, you know . So, elisa said, they drove back to california. And the next morning, at 4 00, she drove out to a vineyard. Dug a hole and buried him. How deep ahold they do dig . Not deep enough, obviously. That was elisas story. In just a few hours after she finished telling it, california Detectives Holden Sarah Dutra, the alleged driver of the whole plot. And her story . Well, it was a little different.

They confronted her with e. L. I. S. A. S written confession. Basically, it says, i, learned to Overdose Larry Mac navy, with Horse Tranquilizer. No im not denying.

Because shes been jealous of me. I know she has. Explain that to me then. Why is she doing this . Make me believe it, sarah. Because shes an evil person. Anyone who could kill their husband is evil. Sara dutra broke down until detectives her side of the story. And in this version, it was elisa not sarah who was A Cold Blooded Killer. But elisa ordered one sarah to bury him before he was dead. She said, get out and grab the shovel and dig a hole. And i said Oh God i dont want to do this, she said get out. I was i want you to know that i was so afraid to not do which want to me to. The elisa who was eerily calm and very finely did expire and he was lying on the ground. What is he lying on the ground . For you know why is he not lying in bed . And she said, hes dead. And i thought, what . Oh my god, hes dead . What do you mean hes dead . Well that was the morning of September 12th after the long and harrowing Drive Home from the horseshoe in los angeles. And through her tears, she told the detectives how Larrys Body ended up in the refrigerator. And so she put him in a sheet. Oh my god, i ive never seen anything like this, okay . And she said, okay grab the sheet. And then we carried him downstairs and im like, what are you doing . I we have to call the police. This is not right. She said, we are not calling the police. If you call the Police Youll be so sorry you did. This was the heart of saras version, she went along with a whole awful, crazy thing for one reason. She said, she was definitely afraid of elissa.

Sarah dutra was behind bars charged with the murder of laren Larry Mcnabney. The Larrys Wife elisa told the detectives they killed the attorney together. But insisted it was sarahs idea. Then elisa committed suicide, leaving sarah to face trial alone. Sarahs defense claimed she was the pawn forced to commit that horrendous act and it was elisa who was the real mastermind. Which story would the jury believe . Hairs Keith Morrison with the conclusion of poison. It was the winter of 2003. More than a year after Larry Mcnabney was poisoned with Horse Tranquilizer. His admitted killer, his wife Elisa Mcnabney, chose her own destiny. And her alleged accomplice, Sarah Dutra, a lone, faced the possibility of spending the rest of her life behind bars. You attended the trial every day . Yes, 11 and a half weeks. Why . Why . Our dea had talked to us about the importance of our family being represented. That my dad not being forgotten. Tavia believe that her father died at both the hands of Elisa And Sarah. And while sarah admitted to being there one larry died, and in the days and months that followed, she adamantly claimed she never went to the police because she was so afraid of elisa. Island of ending up just like larry. A theory that even prosecutor Thomas Testa found, well, believable. When i first got this case, people in my office will tell you thats exactly what i was saying. Walking up and down the hall. For sara, shes the victim. Shes just an aider and abettor. But as i got deeper in the case i totally turned around on this. I started with a very mindset. As Testa Review the evidence in preparation for trial, he became convinced that Sarah Dutra was in fact, the woman in charge. Did sarah not like larry. She always is accused him of being full of himself. Talking about himself all the time. Selfcentered. She didnt like him. So larry did it was zero around. Sarah did not like larry. You know . This sounds to me like to people who both Love Elisa and what the other out of the way. Thats it. Thats exactly eight. It was a Love Triangle and one of them had to go. Sarah, state Prosecutor Testa, was enjoying a very fancy life with elisa. And larry was simply in the way. If your theory is right, these are two good time girls whove got this great relationship and theyre living off the proceeds of larry. Why get rid of him . They have no motive . Larry was elisas golden goose. But elisa was sarahs golden goose. And sarah was about to be cut off this whole triangle. Had larry told her two days before he was killed that he wanted her gone. He wanted her fire. So, said testa, it was sarah who had the motive to kill larry. Sarahs lawyer, of course, saw differently. It seems like a classic instance of evil wrapping around a sweet, young, little baby. That the trial, Defense Attorney portrayed elisa as a black window. A sophisticated Con Otters who wanted her husband. Ed and sarah was her innocent and terrified pawn. This is the most horrible thing that ive ever had anything to do with, but not because i wanted to. Not because i wanted to do that. Not because i wanted to. Really . Now Prosecutor Testa introduced Ginger Miller. Remember her . The other secretary who worked alongside Sarah And Elisa . She said, in the days and weeks after larry vanished, Elisa And Sarah seemed to feel anything but remorse. Theyre laughing together. You are shopping together. Theyre eating together. Theyre sleeping in the same bed together. Shes living out her house. So, they were not really working, where they . They would go maybe two hours during the day. What they do the rest of the time . Just party . Shop, hang out, sleep. Go flirt with boys. All the while, spending the firms money. Larrys money. A lot of money. Elisa got a red jaguar. Sara got a red bmw. Such close friends. Or maybe more than friends. They bought Matching Underwear together. Come on . No, my first week, theyre like look what we bought. They pulled it out and they were both wearing Matching Underwear. They were best friends. They were blowing through money so fast they fell behind in rent payments for the law office. Got evicted. So, they moved the office into elisa and larrys home. Which according to ginger, now seemed more like Elisa And Sarahs home. Up in the room, they had no clothes of larrys. The claws it was screened. Out they made the sinks hers and hers instead of his and hers. Like they knew he wasnt coming back . Well she said, theyre pretty much moving him out. Well, not quite. Because all this time, remember, Larrys Body was still in the garage. Still in the refrigerator. And as for the idea that sarah was an instant child, elisas pop it, that was nonsense, said ginger. Everybody knows that she was in terrified of her. Sarah had as much say as elisa had in the whole situation. Back at her trial, sarah, the daughter of those devout christian, sat quietly at the defense table. Wideeyed and innocent. Elisa was it around to be crossexamined, so her videotaped confession didnt get played for the jury. And with no dna, no prince, no trace evidence, no living eyewitnesses, the case against sarah was entirely circumstantial. First degree murder. First really murder, yeah. But with the would the jury see it the way he did . After four days of deliberations the jury found Sarah Dutra guilty of voluntary manslaughter. And accessory to murder. Not first degree murder. Had she not been a young, attractive, tall blonde, whose parents were clutching bibles, crying in the first row, one wonders if this would verdict would have been the same. Sarah was dutra sentenced to 11 years, served eight. And in the summer of 2011, at age 31, she was released. Its painful to know that such little time was given for such a horrific crime. And one that seemed so premeditated, to me. And so thought out. And so callous to the end. Sarah dutra did not respond to our interview request. And tavia . She told us shed forgiven sarah, as much as for her own sake as anything. Will i ever forget what shes done . Never. But i dont want to have my whole life the their cruelty and the things they chose to do to him. I would rather remember the loving times we had together. Theyre not going to take that away from me. Thats all for this edition of dateline. Im craig melvin. Thank you for watching. Im craig melvin, and im natalie morales, and this is dateline. What god no, please, this cannot be real. A teenager, home alone in the night of terror. I would just stare out the window and try and figure out how scared she must of been. On her body, like a signature, a handprint in blood. It was a crime of passion. Theres
