and daniel. from the day vern was attacked. don t be late for shopping. what s going on there? it appears to be code to me. what they re talking about is the real estate appointment with vern. at 12:04 p.m., presumably was right around when the attack happened, adriana texts daniel, we are going shopping. i believe that that is her way of telling daniel that the job is done. reporter: and that same afternoon, who pulls up at the sunshine motel to pick up adriana? you guessed it. daniel blizzard. possible that they were just talking about shopping? anything is possible but it s not very likely. reporter: finally, in september 2013, nearly 3 months after the attack, the detective went to pick up daniel. he didn t seem surprised to see me. and he didn t say gee detective, what could this possibly be about? no he didn t ask. i m the detective who s investigating the attack on vern holbrook.
