hello. i m andrea canning. and this is dateline. i was just like, oh my god this is really an answer. it may not be definitive, but this guy knows something. a young couple vanishes. then, nearly a decade later, a discovery in their own backyard turns the mystery into a murder. they find a back, and inside the back is a human skull. detectives had a suspect. and then, he disappeared, too. his trailhead just stopped. until this please, please, bring him back. he kidnapped his own daughter right from this boston straight, after claiming to be a rockefeller clark rockefeller. i hired a private investigator, trying to find out who i was married to. and they couldn t find out. now, a second chance for investigators to prove that this mysterious con man was also a killer. but was this case as clear cut as it seemed? there was no motive. there was no reason he would have done this. we will hear from detectives who helped crack this puzzlin
this is really an answer. it may not be definitive, but this guy knows something. a young couple vanishes. then, nearly a decade later, a discovery in their own backyard turns the mystery into a murder. they find a back, and inside the back is a human skull. detectives had a suspect. and then, he disappeared, too. his trailhead just stopped. until this please, please, bring him back. he kidnapped his own daughter right from this boston straight, after claiming to be a rockefeller clark rockefeller. i hired a private investigator, trying to find out who i was married to. and they couldn t find out. now, a second chance for investigators to prove that this mysterious con man was also a killer. but was this case as clear cut as it seemed? there was no motive. there was no reason he would have done this. we will hear from detectives who helped crack this puzzling case. and from his ex-wife. i thought he was very intelligent, funny, very charming.
it was a man skeleton. and that old missing persons report suggested to that man was. i didn t need the dna, i didn t need the dental records. i knew that was done. john s friend sue kaufman heard details of where the body had been dressed, and truth she dreaded at home. i said, that s exactly what john war, almost exactly all the time. that was the way he liked to dress. the remains told more of the story close to the head, six stab moves to the back, not just murder, but a brutal murder. a missing persons case that had gone permanently cold, transformed in that moment through the very act of super heated homicide investigation. there were two other people who lived at the road again, and were unaccounted for. john s wife linda, still missing. and the tenant in the guesthouse. exactly where were they, and was a possible one of them was killer? coming up detectives get to work on that
She was just three or four seats to the win. and i m just kind of like, right. and something else made no sense at all. linda had abandoned her beloved cats at a packed hotel. her cats were absolute love of her life. she would not have left her cats of her own free will. linda s family was alarmed too and filed a missing persons report. but one san marino police followed up by visiting john s mother, she told them the same strange story. she said that they were not missing, they were on a job interview that was secret. tim miley and dolores scott are detectives with the los angeles county sheriff s department. it s weird on its own that his mother said, my son and his wife are on the secret job interview. that means she truly believed that he was off on a secret mission job, and that s what she s been told. it was so odd, with a young couple missing or not, an officer knocked on the door of the guesthouse, where deedee s tennant lived.
One man remembered chichester, asking to borrow a chainsaw. and now, dana four are told detectives something seem the key evidence. during one of chichester s backyard trivial pursuit parties, she noticed a part of the lawn looked like it had been freshly dug up. i said to him, you know, what is with your yard? what happened to your yard? and he just said, well, i am having plumbing problems. detectives were astounded at the implications. at that point, he is taking ownership of the grave, because that is where john s body was found. they detectives, pouring over the evidence from the boston kidnapping case found this. reason to believe the prime suspect had totally rebooted his identity, after san marino. in boston, we found some documents, some computer hard drives. his life begins roughly in 1988. what did that tell you? i would say that it is some evidence of a consciousness, trying to erase a part of one s
