00:00:07.599 --> 00:00:11.240
<v Speaker 1>On December fourteenth, in the year two thousand, a quiet

2
00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:15.839
<v Speaker 1>evening in Wichita, Kansas, erupted into an unimaginable nightmare when

3
00:00:15.919 --> 00:00:19.719
<v Speaker 1>five young friends were targeted in a brutal home invasion

4
00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:24.719
<v Speaker 1>that would ultimately leave four of them dead. This horrific

5
00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:27.920
<v Speaker 1>crime was just one part of a multi day terror

6
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:33.000
<v Speaker 1>spree orchestrated by two brothers, affecting multiple victims and shaking

7
00:00:33.039 --> 00:00:37.479
<v Speaker 1>the entire community to its core. This is the terrifying

8
00:00:37.759 --> 00:00:41.600
<v Speaker 1>and horrific story known as the Wichita Horror.

9
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:46.759
<v Speaker 2>My name's Ben, I'm Nicole, and you're listening to Wicked

10
00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:50.119
<v Speaker 2>and Grim, a true crime podcast.

11
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:57.280
<v Speaker 1>The following podcast material intended for a mature audience.

12
00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:19.640
<v Speaker 2>Listener discretion easy. I haven't messed up our intro for

13
00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:20.560
<v Speaker 2>a while. I'm doing good.

14
00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:23.760
<v Speaker 1>You are doing really good. It's finally ingrained in our system.

15
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:26.920
<v Speaker 2>I think someone did say it was kind of funny.

16
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:30.519
<v Speaker 2>I think this was on Spotify comment or something where

17
00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:34.239
<v Speaker 2>it's all like creepy music and then all of a sudden,

18
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:38.760
<v Speaker 2>there's me. Hey, it's Nicole. You know it doesn't totally

19
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:39.480
<v Speaker 2>match the vibe.

20
00:01:39.519 --> 00:01:42.760
<v Speaker 1>I guess the little little light in the darkness, if

21
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:46.840
<v Speaker 1>you will, there you go. Before we get into anything

22
00:01:46.879 --> 00:01:49.040
<v Speaker 1>at all, I want to say, in case you missed

<v Speaker 1>So yeah, with that, I also want to warn you

00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:21.120
<v Speaker 1>there is some heavy assault in this case, sexual assault

<v Speaker 1>some real monsters in this story today. I mean not

38
00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:39.240
<v Speaker 1>that we don't ever cover real monsters, but I mean

39
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:41.520
<v Speaker 1>these people definitely take it up a notch, that's for sure.

40
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:42.719
<v Speaker 2>Next level monsters.

41
00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:45.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So with that, should we just get right into it.

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm ready. I got my drink. I'm ready to go.

43
00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:51.759
<v Speaker 1>I got my drink too. And before I say anything,

44
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Happy Friday. Now let's get into it. So the night

45
00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:59.719
<v Speaker 1>of December fourteenth, two thousand, it was brisk in which

46
00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:03.159
<v Speaker 1>Talk Kansas, with a light dusting of snow covering the ground.

47
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:06.800
<v Speaker 1>Twenty five year old Holly, a school teacher, was navigating

48
00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:10.199
<v Speaker 1>her way to the quiet, decorated streets with her beloved

49
00:03:10.280 --> 00:03:14.560
<v Speaker 1>snauzer Nikki riding Shatka next to her. Her destination was

50
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:17.680
<v Speaker 1>an address on East Birchwood Drive, where she planned to

51
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:21.439
<v Speaker 1>spend the evening with her boyfriend, Jason Bayfort now Jason

52
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:24.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty six, was a charming high school teacher and a

53
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:27.439
<v Speaker 1>basketball coach. He wasn't back from his job just yet.

54
00:03:27.479 --> 00:03:29.919
<v Speaker 1>He was coaching a little bit later that evening, but

55
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:32.479
<v Speaker 1>Holly knew he wasn't going to be home. She had

56
00:03:32.479 --> 00:03:35.319
<v Speaker 1>a key of her own, so she let herself into

57
00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:39.680
<v Speaker 1>the condo that he shared with roommates. Inside, she was

58
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:43.560
<v Speaker 1>greeted by Jason's too inviting roommates, Aaron Sanders, who was

59
00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:48.199
<v Speaker 1>twenty nine, who was pursuing becoming a priest, and Brad Haka,

60
00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:54.080
<v Speaker 1>who is twenty seven a financial analysis. Soon after, Heather Mueller,

61
00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:57.159
<v Speaker 1>a twenty five year old preschool teacher, arrived as well.

62
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:00.639
<v Speaker 1>Heather and Aaron had previously dated, actually, but due to

63
00:04:00.719 --> 00:04:03.960
<v Speaker 1>their Catholic faith and Aaron's intention to become a priest

64
00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:08.360
<v Speaker 1>and Heather's also intention to eventually become a nun. They

65
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:12.840
<v Speaker 1>respectfully ended their romantic relationship, remaining close friends, which I

66
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:15.039
<v Speaker 1>love that they're just like, you know what, this isn't

67
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:18.480
<v Speaker 1>for us. We got aspirations and plans. Yeah, but we're

68
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:20.319
<v Speaker 1>still cool. We're still tight, we're still good friends.

69
00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:22.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. That sounds like it could have gone really any

70
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:24.000
<v Speaker 2>other better way.

71
00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:28.079
<v Speaker 1>Right now. While waiting for Jason to finish his coaching

72
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:32.439
<v Speaker 1>duties at Augusta High School, Holly set in it settled

73
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:36.759
<v Speaker 1>into a room to great papers. When Jason finally arrived,

74
00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:39.800
<v Speaker 1>the group gathered for a comfortable evening. They had some

75
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:43.439
<v Speaker 1>dinner together, They chatted conversations, and sat back to watch

76
00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:46.879
<v Speaker 1>some TV. As the night drew to a close, Jason,

77
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.079
<v Speaker 1>always careful, made sure that the doors were locked before

78
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:54.680
<v Speaker 1>everyone went to bed for the night. Heather took Jason's room,

79
00:04:54.879 --> 00:04:58.720
<v Speaker 1>Aaron made himself comfortable in the living room couch. Holly, Jason,

80
00:04:58.759 --> 00:05:02.920
<v Speaker 1>and their dog Nikki snuggled into his bedroom. Just as

81
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:07.360
<v Speaker 1>they were getting settled in the porch, light outside unexpectedly

82
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:10.959
<v Speaker 1>flicked on. Jason mumbled about having to get up and

83
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:15.360
<v Speaker 1>turn it off, and then muffled voices began to grow

84
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:17.759
<v Speaker 1>a little bit louder from the living room, and they

85
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:22.680
<v Speaker 1>began growing louder and louder, turning into what suddenly sounded

86
00:05:22.759 --> 00:05:27.680
<v Speaker 1>like shouts, and without warning, the bedroom door suddenly burst open.

87
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:32.519
<v Speaker 1>Holly and Jason were just scared all of a sudden,

88
00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:36.240
<v Speaker 1>what's going on? Their shot quickly morphed into sheer terror

89
00:05:36.279 --> 00:05:39.000
<v Speaker 1>because standing in the doorway was a tall man pointing

90
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:43.560
<v Speaker 1>a gun directly at them. He stormed into the room,

91
00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:47.439
<v Speaker 1>tearing off the blankets from the bed. Close behind him

92
00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:50.959
<v Speaker 1>was a second, little, shorter, less muscular man who entered,

93
00:05:51.079 --> 00:05:57.040
<v Speaker 1>dragging airin in at gunpoint and forcing him into the bed. Nicky,

94
00:05:57.319 --> 00:06:01.120
<v Speaker 1>sensing the immediate threat, the dog began to growl and bark,

95
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:03.680
<v Speaker 1>showing in bearing her teeth at these two individuals who

96
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:06.360
<v Speaker 1>just burst into the room right One of the armed

97
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:09.040
<v Speaker 1>men then pointed a gun at the dog and coldly stated,

98
00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:15.399
<v Speaker 1>grab your dog or will shoot her, and terrified Holly complied, m.

99
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:18.240
<v Speaker 2>Hmm, well, yeah, Rick, I feel like at that moment

100
00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:21.680
<v Speaker 2>my rage would just be like next.

101
00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:24.399
<v Speaker 1>Level, Hey, but there's nothing you can do is you're helpless?

102
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:28.079
<v Speaker 2>Unfortunately, Yeah, well, and still you're like probably still waking

103
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:28.879
<v Speaker 2>the hell up too.

104
00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:30.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's true.

105
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:31.040
<v Speaker 2>Now.

106
00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:34.040
<v Speaker 1>These two intruders then demanded to know if anyone else

107
00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:37.800
<v Speaker 1>was in the apartment. To frighten to resist, the trio

108
00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:41.839
<v Speaker 1>revealed Brad and Heather's presence. One of the men left

109
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:45.000
<v Speaker 1>the room, leaving the other to keep Holly, Jason, Aaron,

110
00:06:45.160 --> 00:06:49.240
<v Speaker 1>and the dog Nikki at gunpoint. Moments later, the first

111
00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:53.040
<v Speaker 1>man returned, bringing Brad clad only in his boxers and

112
00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:57.720
<v Speaker 1>Heather still fully dressed. With weapons aimed at all five friends.

113
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:02.399
<v Speaker 1>The two gunmen command them all to take all of

114
00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:03.279
<v Speaker 1>their clothes off.

115
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:07.079
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh, Like, I already have so many questions here,

116
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:08.199
<v Speaker 2>but I'm just gonna keep.

117
00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:10.600
<v Speaker 1>Listening, keep listening, Okay, Well, I mean, if you have

118
00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:12.040
<v Speaker 1>any questions, feel free to ask.

119
00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:15.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, I think you're going to cover them. But I'm

120
00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:17.160
<v Speaker 2>just how the hell did these people get in because

121
00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:20.040
<v Speaker 2>they were good about locking up. I mean, if there's

122
00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:21.720
<v Speaker 2>a will, there's a way, blah blah blah. And then

123
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:25.480
<v Speaker 2>like we were they targeted, you know, well, it seems

124
00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:26.560
<v Speaker 2>already horrid.

125
00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:30.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't really talk too much about how they gain access.

126
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:31.959
<v Speaker 1>I can't remember if I wrote it into part two.

127
00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:35.879
<v Speaker 1>I hinsed it, I guess, and what I just talked about.

128
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:38.639
<v Speaker 1>So the light on the front porch came on, and

129
00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:41.040
<v Speaker 1>from the bedroom they heard Jason out there, you know,

130
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:43.120
<v Speaker 1>who's on the couch, the couch, Yeah, mumbling about like

131
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:44.519
<v Speaker 1>always got to get up and turn the light off.

132
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:48.600
<v Speaker 1>He got up and he opened the door and let

133
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:50.360
<v Speaker 1>these guys in accidentally.

134
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:55.639
<v Speaker 2>Oh shit. But like still they probably would have been

135
00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:56.879
<v Speaker 2>able to get in if they wanted to.

136
00:07:57.120 --> 00:08:01.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean maybe possibly, It's hard to say, but

137
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:04.279
<v Speaker 1>one way or another, Yeah, they gained access because he

138
00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:06.639
<v Speaker 1>got up to yet get the light turned off.

139
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:07.639
<v Speaker 2>Damn.

140
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:13.040
<v Speaker 1>And it's I'm unclear. It's it's unclear if like maybe

141
00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:15.000
<v Speaker 1>he saw them and opened up to see what they wanted,

142
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:16.800
<v Speaker 1>or if he didn't see them and just opened for

143
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:19.199
<v Speaker 1>the light itself. But one way or another, he opened

144
00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:20.720
<v Speaker 1>the door and they gained entry that way.

145
00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:25.319
<v Speaker 2>I hate that. Okay, what was your other question, if

146
00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:29.480
<v Speaker 2>these people were targeted, because this just seems, like I said,

147
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:30.399
<v Speaker 2>horrid already.

148
00:08:31.560 --> 00:08:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Unfortunately, for the most part, it wasn't really targeted.

149
00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:34.679
<v Speaker 2>No.

150
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:37.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's not not to say it's fortunate if

151
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:41.039
<v Speaker 1>they were, it's just no, it was more of a

152
00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:43.360
<v Speaker 1>random it happened to be them.

153
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:45.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, because yeah, as you were going through the intros,

154
00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:47.840
<v Speaker 2>and like these people seem like legit, like good people

155
00:08:47.879 --> 00:08:48.200
<v Speaker 2>on there.

156
00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:50.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well one of them studying to be a priest

157
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:52.399
<v Speaker 1>and the other has aspirations to be a nun and stuff.

158
00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:54.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so like it doesn't seem like they wouldness. Well,

159
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:57.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean sometimes religious people I guess are targeted, right,

160
00:08:57.960 --> 00:08:58.960
<v Speaker 2>But well.

161
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:01.799
<v Speaker 1>Anyone can really become a target for any reason. Yeah,

162
00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:04.720
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to really get into that mindset of why.

163
00:09:04.799 --> 00:09:08.080
<v Speaker 2>But I digress. I'm already sitting on the edge of

164
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:09.720
<v Speaker 2>my seat, right, I don't know if I want to

165
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:10.200
<v Speaker 2>go forward.

166
00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:16.080
<v Speaker 1>Well, the intruders, obviously, they demand them to remove all

167
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:18.519
<v Speaker 1>their clothes. That's where I left off, and they now

168
00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:21.440
<v Speaker 1>had no choice but to comply with guns pointed in

169
00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:24.399
<v Speaker 1>their face. So all five of them stripped naked and

170
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:28.600
<v Speaker 1>were now shivering from fear and cold. Like it's cold, right,

171
00:09:28.799 --> 00:09:32.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean they are inside. But yeah, the five captives

172
00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:36.039
<v Speaker 1>had no choice but to simply comply and do what

173
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:39.279
<v Speaker 1>they were told. They stood and stunned silence as the

174
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:42.679
<v Speaker 1>shorter attacker then left the room and began ransacking the house.

175
00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:46.679
<v Speaker 1>Searching for valuables, unfortunately finding a little of value. The

176
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:51.480
<v Speaker 1>taller gunmen became growingly frustrated visibly, and he brandished his

177
00:09:51.480 --> 00:09:53.759
<v Speaker 1>weapon at them, demanding to know where they kept their

178
00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:57.080
<v Speaker 1>money and any safe that they might have would be

179
00:09:57.120 --> 00:10:00.720
<v Speaker 1>in the house now Unfortunately there was no safe to

180
00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:05.360
<v Speaker 1>be found. Pleading with their lives, the group offered anything

181
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:07.559
<v Speaker 1>they had, anything of value that they could think of,

182
00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:10.279
<v Speaker 1>even listing the amounts that they had in their bank accounts,

183
00:10:10.279 --> 00:10:12.279
<v Speaker 1>and like you can take our bank cards and like

184
00:10:12.360 --> 00:10:14.879
<v Speaker 1>go withdrawal or money whatever, like just leave us a loane,

185
00:10:14.960 --> 00:10:17.480
<v Speaker 1>like take whatever you need, like we'll give it to you.

186
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:23.480
<v Speaker 1>But the intruders their desires extended far beyond just money.

187
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:26.720
<v Speaker 1>The gunmen then forced Holly and Heather out of the

188
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:31.480
<v Speaker 1>bedroom and into a small bar area nearby. Held at gunpoint,

189
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:35.399
<v Speaker 1>the two women were then subjected to perform oral, sexual

190
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:40.559
<v Speaker 1>acts and many other things on each other. Ah After

191
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:43.639
<v Speaker 1>this horrifying ordeal, Heather was then brought back into the

192
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:47.000
<v Speaker 1>bedroom and Brad was dragged out to take her place,

193
00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:51.480
<v Speaker 1>with guns pointed at him. Brad was then commanded to

194
00:10:51.559 --> 00:10:57.960
<v Speaker 1>have sex with Holly. However, paralyzed by terror and repulsion

195
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:00.919
<v Speaker 1>over what was going on in this unfolding nightmare, Brad

196
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:05.480
<v Speaker 1>was unable to become aroused or obey their commands fair enough,

197
00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:09.879
<v Speaker 1>the gunman, growing increasingly angry, yanked him away and replaced

198
00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:14.200
<v Speaker 1>him with Jason, and it was a similar situation his

199
00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:18.480
<v Speaker 1>body refused to comply with the demands and then recognizing

200
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:22.279
<v Speaker 1>Jason as Holly's boyfriend, one of the gunmen then muttered,

201
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:26.399
<v Speaker 1>that's his girl, before stating he wasn't allowed to do

202
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:32.399
<v Speaker 1>anything with his own girlfriend anyways, So with that in mind,

203
00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:34.679
<v Speaker 1>they shoved Jason back in the bedroom and pulled Aarin

204
00:11:34.799 --> 00:11:38.840
<v Speaker 1>out into the bar area. However, same sort of thing.

205
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:43.960
<v Speaker 1>Aaron was defiant. He refused to assault Holly and he

206
00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:47.399
<v Speaker 1>was just pleading them to stop. In a brutal response,

207
00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:50.159
<v Speaker 1>one of the gunmen struck him forcefully on the back

208
00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:53.759
<v Speaker 1>of the head with his weapon, knocking him to the floor. Terrified,

209
00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:57.039
<v Speaker 1>but knowing they had no alternative if they wished to survive,

210
00:11:57.840 --> 00:12:00.679
<v Speaker 1>Aaron and Hawley both desperately try to do what their

211
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:04.039
<v Speaker 1>tormentors demanded of them.

212
00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:07.840
<v Speaker 2>This is this is horrible, Like what what kind of

213
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:11.080
<v Speaker 2>game are they playing? Like? This is this is disgusting.

214
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:14.039
<v Speaker 1>It is. It's an absolute nightmare. And in a situation

215
00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:18.120
<v Speaker 1>like this, you're nothing but helpless. I mean, first of all,

216
00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:21.960
<v Speaker 1>they stripped you naked, so you are completely vulnerable in

217
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.799
<v Speaker 1>that sense of like feeling you have no no clothing,

218
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:27.039
<v Speaker 1>no protection. Like, what's your first instinct when you're a

219
00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:29.360
<v Speaker 1>kid and you're trying to hide for monsters, You pull

220
00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:32.039
<v Speaker 1>a blanket or something over your face to hide. Yeah,

221
00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:35.399
<v Speaker 1>you have nothing to hide in now. And then you're

222
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:40.399
<v Speaker 1>being subject to this, not even like on your own self,

223
00:12:40.399 --> 00:12:43.000
<v Speaker 1>but you're forced to do something to someone else, someone

224
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:46.639
<v Speaker 1>a friend, A friend, yeah, friend's significant other, someone you

225
00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:51.399
<v Speaker 1>respect and you know, and it's wild. And these guys

226
00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:53.799
<v Speaker 1>are just like, do this do this for reasons that

227
00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:55.080
<v Speaker 1>I can't even comprehend.

228
00:12:55.919 --> 00:12:59.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, just to think that a human brain can

229
00:12:59.039 --> 00:13:01.399
<v Speaker 2>be that evil to do that to someone.

230
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:03.080
<v Speaker 1>Right, to think that they would come up with that.

231
00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:03.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

232
00:13:04.320 --> 00:13:07.200
<v Speaker 1>Now. Eventually, the gunman returned Hally to the bedroom with

233
00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:10.720
<v Speaker 1>Brad and Jason. They then crammed all three, along with

234
00:13:10.799 --> 00:13:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Nikki the dog, into the closet, warning them to remain

235
00:13:14.240 --> 00:13:19.039
<v Speaker 1>silent or face severe consequences. The intruders then pulled Heather

236
00:13:19.200 --> 00:13:21.919
<v Speaker 1>back out, attempting to force Arin to have sex with

237
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:25.320
<v Speaker 1>her instead, and when Aarin couldn't bring himself to obey,

238
00:13:25.720 --> 00:13:29.799
<v Speaker 1>they gave a chilling ultimatum. They had exactly two minutes.

239
00:13:30.679 --> 00:13:33.279
<v Speaker 1>He in those two minutes needed to become aroused and

240
00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:37.039
<v Speaker 1>comply or they would begin to inflict pain upon them,

241
00:13:38.519 --> 00:13:42.840
<v Speaker 1>and that's when they began to count down those two minutes.

242
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:46.840
<v Speaker 1>They counted from eleven fifty two to eleven fifty four PM,

243
00:13:47.279 --> 00:13:50.799
<v Speaker 1>but nothing changed for Aarin, and as a brutal punishment,

244
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:53.360
<v Speaker 1>one of them grabbed a nearby golf club and began

245
00:13:53.600 --> 00:13:59.720
<v Speaker 1>to beat him with the golf club. This agonizing routine continued,

246
00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:03.240
<v Speaker 1>with the attackers then forcing Jason and later Brad to

247
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:07.159
<v Speaker 1>sexually assault Heather, beating them when they resisted or were

248
00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:10.120
<v Speaker 1>unable to do what they were told. The other friends

249
00:14:10.120 --> 00:14:14.039
<v Speaker 1>were trapped inside the closet, shivering, crying, and listening to

250
00:14:14.039 --> 00:14:17.960
<v Speaker 1>the horrors as the dog, Nikki whimpered in fear beside them.

251
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:23.879
<v Speaker 1>This was an unimaginable ordeal that persisted for approximately an hour,

252
00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:29.799
<v Speaker 1>leaving all five friends feeling utterly broken, traumatized, and trapped

253
00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:33.480
<v Speaker 1>living in a nightmare as they hoped would steadily end

254
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:38.840
<v Speaker 1>at any second, but it seemed like Hope just dwindled

255
00:14:38.840 --> 00:14:39.559
<v Speaker 1>away instead.

256
00:14:40.279 --> 00:14:43.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I yeah, it's unimaginable what they're going through right now.

257
00:14:44.600 --> 00:14:48.399
<v Speaker 1>Now. After the prolonged abuse, the attackers then finally announced

258
00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:51.519
<v Speaker 1>their next move. They were going to take each captive

259
00:14:51.759 --> 00:14:55.120
<v Speaker 1>one by one to an ATM to withdraw money from

260
00:14:55.120 --> 00:14:58.440
<v Speaker 1>their bank account. Releasing the victims from the closet, they

261
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.840
<v Speaker 1>ordered them to locate their car keys in the house. Now,

262
00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:06.159
<v Speaker 1>this brief pause in the torment allowed the friends a precious,

263
00:15:06.279 --> 00:15:11.200
<v Speaker 1>subtle opportunity to really observe their captors more closely, because

264
00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:13.519
<v Speaker 1>before it was you know, gun's pointed in their face

265
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:16.279
<v Speaker 1>and it was one on one and they couldn't really focus.

266
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:19.039
<v Speaker 1>But now the attention was broken up between the five

267
00:15:19.080 --> 00:15:21.519
<v Speaker 1>of them, and in that moment it allowed them to

268
00:15:21.559 --> 00:15:24.639
<v Speaker 1>really kind of absorb the situation. They noted that both

269
00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:27.519
<v Speaker 1>of the perpetrators, both of these men were black, with

270
00:15:27.720 --> 00:15:30.919
<v Speaker 1>features similar enough to suggest that they might actually even

271
00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:34.320
<v Speaker 1>be brothers. The taller of the assailant wore a black

272
00:15:34.399 --> 00:15:38.440
<v Speaker 1>leather coat and gloves over an orange Fubu sweater, which

273
00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:41.879
<v Speaker 1>is a brand, while the shorter man's hair was described

274
00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:46.480
<v Speaker 1>by Holly as clumped and poofy. However, the chaos of

275
00:15:46.519 --> 00:15:49.480
<v Speaker 1>the ransacked house in it all, none of the victims

276
00:15:49.519 --> 00:15:51.840
<v Speaker 1>could immediately find their car keys. I mean, they were

277
00:15:51.840 --> 00:15:54.679
<v Speaker 1>searching for valuables, these two, right, They were overturning things

278
00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:58.600
<v Speaker 1>and throwing things, doing what they could, and in this mess,

279
00:15:59.039 --> 00:16:01.879
<v Speaker 1>they couldn't really find their keys that easily, and the

280
00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:06.159
<v Speaker 1>failure quickly exhausted the gunman's patience, leading to a chilling threat.

281
00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:09.240
<v Speaker 1>If they didn't find their keys soon, or if the

282
00:16:09.320 --> 00:16:12.399
<v Speaker 1>keys didn't appear soon, they would be killed.

283
00:16:13.639 --> 00:16:16.399
<v Speaker 2>These Okay, I mean, yeah, I don't. I was just

284
00:16:16.399 --> 00:16:18.799
<v Speaker 2>gonna say they have no patience, but these are disgusting

285
00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:21.159
<v Speaker 2>human beings, so yeah, of course they wouldn't.

286
00:16:21.240 --> 00:16:23.799
<v Speaker 1>They have no morals, no soul, no dignity, no nothing.

287
00:16:24.039 --> 00:16:24.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

288
00:16:25.080 --> 00:16:28.559
<v Speaker 1>Now, finally Jason spotted keys to his truck back in

289
00:16:28.679 --> 00:16:33.120
<v Speaker 1>his bedroom. The taller gunman, now happy to have the keys,

290
00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:36.559
<v Speaker 1>ordered him to dress and left with him in the truck,

291
00:16:36.639 --> 00:16:39.240
<v Speaker 1>while the shorter man remained behind with the other four friends.

292
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:43.519
<v Speaker 1>The remaining intruder sent Aaron, Brad and Heather back into

293
00:16:43.559 --> 00:16:46.679
<v Speaker 1>the closet. He then made Holly lie down on the floor,

294
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:52.600
<v Speaker 1>lowering his gun as he prepared to assault her. He

295
00:16:52.679 --> 00:16:54.759
<v Speaker 1>laid the gun next to him, and as he began,

296
00:16:54.960 --> 00:16:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Holly's gaze drifted to the gun lying less than two

297
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:04.160
<v Speaker 1>feet away. In this act and assault, her mind raced

298
00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:07.960
<v Speaker 1>with a desperate question. Could she grab it before he reacted?

299
00:17:09.599 --> 00:17:11.759
<v Speaker 1>Could she maybe shoot him even if she could grab it?

300
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:14.039
<v Speaker 1>Could she pull that trigger? Could she do what she

301
00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:16.359
<v Speaker 1>needed to do even if she did get a hold

302
00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:20.079
<v Speaker 1>of it. But overwhelmed by the paralyzing fear of the

303
00:17:20.119 --> 00:17:25.160
<v Speaker 1>catastrophic consequences for everyone if her attempt failed, Holly ultimately

304
00:17:25.160 --> 00:17:29.559
<v Speaker 1>decided not to reach for the gun. She silently endured

305
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:32.960
<v Speaker 1>the assault for about five minutes before returning to the closet.

306
00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:37.319
<v Speaker 1>The intruder then took Heather out with him, leaving the

307
00:17:37.359 --> 00:17:43.640
<v Speaker 1>remaining three friends to listen to more agonizing assaults happening outside.

308
00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:47.480
<v Speaker 1>Aarin in particular, couldn't stop his own tears as he

309
00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:53.000
<v Speaker 1>listened to Heather being assaulted his girlfriend. Eventually, Aaron whispered

310
00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:57.000
<v Speaker 1>a terrifying question to Brad, quote, do you think they're

311
00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:01.720
<v Speaker 1>going to kill us? And Brad didn't answer. He didn't

312
00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:02.720
<v Speaker 1>know how to answer.

313
00:18:04.200 --> 00:18:07.039
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, you can only imagine after what they're doing

314
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:10.000
<v Speaker 2>like they're going to want to probably try to get

315
00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:13.640
<v Speaker 2>rid of this evidence of witnesses, right.

316
00:18:13.559 --> 00:18:16.519
<v Speaker 1>Very possible. Yeah, And if they're going to this lengths,

317
00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:21.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, who knows how far they'll go, right Yeah. Now,

318
00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:25.599
<v Speaker 1>after some time, the taller attacker returned with Jason, you

319
00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:28.640
<v Speaker 1>know from the ATM, and he forced him to now

320
00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:32.200
<v Speaker 1>undress completely once more, and then made Brad get dressed

321
00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:36.319
<v Speaker 1>and accompany him outside to withdraw money in Jason's place.

322
00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:39.480
<v Speaker 1>So they took Jason's truck. They have his ATM card,

323
00:18:39.519 --> 00:18:41.599
<v Speaker 1>and they're going to go withdraw money from his account. Now,

324
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:43.680
<v Speaker 1>as I mentioned before, it's gonna be a one by

325
00:18:43.759 --> 00:18:48.160
<v Speaker 1>one process. Now, after Brad, the man selected Hawlly as

326
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:50.759
<v Speaker 1>the next to go with him, but unlike the men,

327
00:18:50.839 --> 00:18:53.640
<v Speaker 1>he only allowed her to put on a sweater, leaving

328
00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:57.200
<v Speaker 1>her completely nude from the waist down as they stepped

329
00:18:57.200 --> 00:18:59.960
<v Speaker 1>outside into the cold snow. They got into Jason's truck

330
00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:03.640
<v Speaker 1>and the gunman commanded her to drive, keeping his weapon

331
00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:05.680
<v Speaker 1>fixed on her as she backed out of the driveway

332
00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:12.640
<v Speaker 1>onto the icy streets alone with him, and unsettling silence

333
00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:14.599
<v Speaker 1>just hung in the air in that trunk as they

334
00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:18.200
<v Speaker 1>drove until the gunman finally broke it by asking what

335
00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:20.359
<v Speaker 1>his partner had done with her and to the others

336
00:19:20.400 --> 00:19:25.359
<v Speaker 1>when he was gone. A Holly in that instant didn't

337
00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:28.680
<v Speaker 1>really know what to say, but not wanting to anger

338
00:19:28.680 --> 00:19:33.480
<v Speaker 1>the guy any farther, she chose honesty. She explained everything

339
00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:36.200
<v Speaker 1>that happened, including how the other gunman had forced her

340
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:39.440
<v Speaker 1>to have sex with him. Far from showing any sort

341
00:19:39.480 --> 00:19:43.079
<v Speaker 1>of compassion towards her or her friends, he just kind

342
00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:46.920
<v Speaker 1>of laughed it off at what was happening, and he

343
00:19:47.079 --> 00:19:48.880
<v Speaker 1>asked her if she enjoyed.

344
00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:53.279
<v Speaker 2>It, wow, okay, okay.

345
00:19:53.319 --> 00:19:56.279
<v Speaker 1>Fearing his rage, you know, fearing upsetting him or anything.

346
00:19:56.359 --> 00:20:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Once again, Holly made the split second decision to do

347
00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:03.400
<v Speaker 1>what her gut told her, and though she did not

348
00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:06.680
<v Speaker 1>enjoy it, she chose to lie and tell him what

349
00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:11.839
<v Speaker 1>he wanted to hear, and playing along, she simply responded yes,

350
00:20:12.599 --> 00:20:15.519
<v Speaker 1>hoping to keep him calm and keep things from going

351
00:20:15.559 --> 00:20:20.759
<v Speaker 1>too far. He continued his unnerving questions, asking if his

352
00:20:20.880 --> 00:20:24.640
<v Speaker 1>partner was better than her boyfriend Jason, oh my gosh,

353
00:20:24.680 --> 00:20:27.599
<v Speaker 1>and if she'd ever quote being with a black man before,

354
00:20:28.160 --> 00:20:31.440
<v Speaker 1>and if she'd quote enjoyed being intimate with a girl

355
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:34.240
<v Speaker 1>like she would actually enjoy any of this stuff that

356
00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:35.400
<v Speaker 1>she's being forced over.

357
00:20:36.319 --> 00:20:40.759
<v Speaker 2>This this is just like making me just like pissed.

358
00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:43.079
<v Speaker 1>It's it's sickening, is what it is.

359
00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:44.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like it.

360
00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:46.400
<v Speaker 1>It makes me feel nauseous.

361
00:20:46.599 --> 00:20:46.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

362
00:20:47.519 --> 00:20:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Now, after a while of playing along, answering all the questions,

363
00:20:51.000 --> 00:20:53.119
<v Speaker 1>trying to make sure she tells him what he wants

364
00:20:53.160 --> 00:20:56.759
<v Speaker 1>to hear, Holly's deep seated fear finally overwhelmed her, and

365
00:20:56.799 --> 00:20:59.519
<v Speaker 1>she couldn't help but ask the one question that was

366
00:20:59.559 --> 00:21:02.720
<v Speaker 1>on her mind. She asked him if they were planning

367
00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:07.519
<v Speaker 1>to kill her and her friends. The gunman surprisingly reassured

368
00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:09.839
<v Speaker 1>her that once they were finished with everything they needed,

369
00:21:09.839 --> 00:21:12.680
<v Speaker 1>getting the money and everything, they would all be left alive.

370
00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Now at the ATM, Hally lowered her window, rolling it down,

371
00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:21.079
<v Speaker 1>her card into the machine, and withdrew as much cash

372
00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:23.240
<v Speaker 1>as she could get out. Now. As she was reaching

373
00:21:23.279 --> 00:21:25.720
<v Speaker 1>out the window and pressing the buttons for the transaction,

374
00:21:26.559 --> 00:21:30.480
<v Speaker 1>that's when she felt something on her leg. It was

375
00:21:30.519 --> 00:21:33.319
<v Speaker 1>the gunman's hand and it was sliding on her leg

376
00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:38.000
<v Speaker 1>and he began to touch her in ways. That's all

377
00:21:38.039 --> 00:21:43.279
<v Speaker 1>I'll say. Shocked, but fighting to remain calm, Holly completed

378
00:21:43.279 --> 00:21:46.640
<v Speaker 1>the transaction, handed the money over to him, and just

379
00:21:47.000 --> 00:21:51.079
<v Speaker 1>continued to do what she could to keep calm and

380
00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:55.880
<v Speaker 1>do what he wanted. As they continued driving to various ATMs,

381
00:21:55.880 --> 00:21:58.400
<v Speaker 1>the man's side or remark that he wished they'd met

382
00:21:58.480 --> 00:22:01.640
<v Speaker 1>under different circumstances because he believed that they'd probably hit

383
00:22:01.680 --> 00:22:04.960
<v Speaker 1>it off pretty good. Yeah, she was disgusted with that,

384
00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:09.079
<v Speaker 1>and again still just played along though, like.

385
00:22:09.359 --> 00:22:14.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, like, shut the fuck up really, Like this

386
00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:16.319
<v Speaker 2>guy is just is so gross.

387
00:22:16.519 --> 00:22:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, if you can't get disgusted enough with him, it

388
00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:20.960
<v Speaker 1>seems like he just keeps managing to be able to

389
00:22:20.960 --> 00:22:23.359
<v Speaker 1>get there to disgust you even fucking more.

390
00:22:23.480 --> 00:22:26.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like, and he's completely diluted. Thinking, Oh man, if

391
00:22:26.920 --> 00:22:30.839
<v Speaker 2>we met in different circumstances, are you kidding? Are you kidding?

392
00:22:31.119 --> 00:22:33.920
<v Speaker 2>You're a complete monster. No one would ever like you.

393
00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:37.480
<v Speaker 1>So do you want to tell me how you really feel?

394
00:22:39.160 --> 00:22:39.920
<v Speaker 1>If you want to keep.

395
00:22:39.839 --> 00:22:41.839
<v Speaker 2>Going, go for it. I could keep going, but you're

396
00:22:41.880 --> 00:22:46.960
<v Speaker 2>not wrong trying to keep a PG ish all.

397
00:22:46.920 --> 00:22:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Right, ish, Well, I don't know if this is a

398
00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:52.640
<v Speaker 1>PG thirteen show, So I mean, you can honestly probably

399
00:22:52.680 --> 00:22:55.000
<v Speaker 1>go farther than that if you want. This is at

400
00:22:55.079 --> 00:22:59.559
<v Speaker 1>least righted r if I'm being honest. Yeah, anyways. Upon

401
00:22:59.599 --> 00:23:01.880
<v Speaker 1>their return into the house, Aaron was then forced to

402
00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:05.200
<v Speaker 1>take Holly's place and leave with the taller attacker. Holly

403
00:23:05.279 --> 00:23:07.799
<v Speaker 1>was then stripped again and led back to the closet

404
00:23:07.839 --> 00:23:10.720
<v Speaker 1>by the bar with Heather. The shorter gunman picked up

405
00:23:10.720 --> 00:23:13.279
<v Speaker 1>a bottle of whiskey, poured himself a drink from the bar,

406
00:23:13.880 --> 00:23:16.519
<v Speaker 1>and opened the cupboard, asking Brad, Jason and Holly if

407
00:23:16.559 --> 00:23:19.680
<v Speaker 1>they wanted a drink, and the offer was declined on

408
00:23:19.960 --> 00:23:23.079
<v Speaker 1>all the chords by all of them the shit. He

409
00:23:23.160 --> 00:23:27.920
<v Speaker 1>then handed Holly Nicky's muzzle the dog and watched as

410
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:30.559
<v Speaker 1>she placed on her before slamming the closet door shut

411
00:23:30.640 --> 00:23:34.079
<v Speaker 1>once again. As he sipped on his drink, the intruder

412
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:37.279
<v Speaker 1>picked up a popcorn tin that was sitting nearby, and

413
00:23:37.319 --> 00:23:39.319
<v Speaker 1>as he picked it up, it made an odd sound

414
00:23:39.319 --> 00:23:41.640
<v Speaker 1>on the inside when he shook it. He opened it

415
00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:46.160
<v Speaker 1>up to look inside, and what he discovered inside appeared

416
00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:51.119
<v Speaker 1>to be an engagement ring. Jason then revealed that he

417
00:23:51.160 --> 00:23:55.039
<v Speaker 1>had been planning to propose to Holly on December twenty second.

418
00:23:57.359 --> 00:24:02.880
<v Speaker 1>In that horrifying, unimaginable situation, with all this terrifying horror

419
00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:06.039
<v Speaker 1>going on. Holly just learned that the man that she

420
00:24:06.240 --> 00:24:09.599
<v Speaker 1>loved intended to ask her hand in marriage.

421
00:24:09.799 --> 00:24:12.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, oh.

422
00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:16.759
<v Speaker 1>Man, showing absolutely no emotion upon finding the engagement ring.

423
00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:20.640
<v Speaker 1>What do you think the guy did? He took it

424
00:24:20.680 --> 00:24:21.480
<v Speaker 1>and put it in his pocket.

425
00:24:21.480 --> 00:24:25.359
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, I'm like it's worth something, so yeah.

426
00:24:25.400 --> 00:24:28.279
<v Speaker 1>When Aaron and the taller man returned, Holly was yanked

427
00:24:28.279 --> 00:24:32.599
<v Speaker 1>from the closet. Noticing her extreme fear, the shorter man

428
00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:38.039
<v Speaker 1>uttered words that sent shivers down her spine. He said, quote, relax,

429
00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:42.400
<v Speaker 1>We're not going to shoot you. Yet Holly flinched at

430
00:24:42.440 --> 00:24:47.839
<v Speaker 1>that last word in his sentence. Yet in that moment,

431
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:52.799
<v Speaker 1>with that one sentence, she knew for certain that despite

432
00:24:52.839 --> 00:24:57.359
<v Speaker 1>the man's reassurance in the truck earlier, they intended to

433
00:24:57.480 --> 00:25:01.319
<v Speaker 1>kill them. Yep, the s The shorter gunmen then forced

434
00:25:01.319 --> 00:25:04.759
<v Speaker 1>her onto all fours and proceeded to assault her once again.

435
00:25:05.680 --> 00:25:08.079
<v Speaker 1>Once finished, he led her into the bedroom, where the

436
00:25:08.119 --> 00:25:10.920
<v Speaker 1>taller man was in the process of also assaulting Heather.

437
00:25:11.319 --> 00:25:15.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh, this is just like not ending hey, NonStop.

438
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:19.359
<v Speaker 1>It's constant. And after the taller man completed his assault,

439
00:25:19.480 --> 00:25:22.759
<v Speaker 1>he too assaulted Holly before tossing what appeared to be

440
00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:26.000
<v Speaker 1>a condom in the toilet and flushing it away. The

441
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:28.400
<v Speaker 1>two men then brought Holly and Heather back to the

442
00:25:28.440 --> 00:25:31.920
<v Speaker 1>bar area. There, the two women watched terrified as their

443
00:25:31.960 --> 00:25:34.839
<v Speaker 1>captors whispered planning their next move and what they were

444
00:25:34.839 --> 00:25:38.200
<v Speaker 1>going to do. Eventually, the gunmen told both women to

445
00:25:38.200 --> 00:25:41.400
<v Speaker 1>put sweaters on once more, They led them barefoot and

446
00:25:41.480 --> 00:25:44.359
<v Speaker 1>naked from the waist down into the garage and ordered

447
00:25:44.359 --> 00:25:47.559
<v Speaker 1>them both to climb into the trunk of Aaron's Honda Accord.

448
00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:52.279
<v Speaker 1>Moments later, Brad, Jason and Aaron were brought down as well,

449
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:55.640
<v Speaker 1>all of them completely naked this time, and instructed to

450
00:25:55.640 --> 00:25:58.759
<v Speaker 1>get into the trunk with the two women. However, realizing

451
00:25:58.799 --> 00:26:01.640
<v Speaker 1>that all five captors clearly wouldn't fit into the trunk

452
00:26:01.680 --> 00:26:05.359
<v Speaker 1>of a car, the attackers quickly changed their plan. The

453
00:26:05.400 --> 00:26:07.920
<v Speaker 1>three men were locked into the trunk of the Honda,

454
00:26:08.240 --> 00:26:11.799
<v Speaker 1>while the other women were led over to Jason's truck,

455
00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:14.240
<v Speaker 1>with the taller man taking the wheel of the truck

456
00:26:14.240 --> 00:26:16.359
<v Speaker 1>and the shorter man taking the wheel of the Honda Accord.

457
00:26:16.960 --> 00:26:20.079
<v Speaker 1>The two vehicles departed with all five victims inside.

458
00:26:20.359 --> 00:26:23.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh the act, Okay, they're taking them away. I don't

459
00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:24.680
<v Speaker 2>know why, but I didn't expect that.

460
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:28.839
<v Speaker 1>Eventually, Holly mustered the courage to ask where they were

461
00:26:28.880 --> 00:26:31.440
<v Speaker 1>being taken, and the reply she got was that they're

462
00:26:31.480 --> 00:26:34.160
<v Speaker 1>going to be dropped off somewhere far enough away to

463
00:26:34.200 --> 00:26:39.359
<v Speaker 1>not cause these guys any sort of issues. Finally, the

464
00:26:39.359 --> 00:26:42.359
<v Speaker 1>two vehicles came to a stop in a desolate, snow

465
00:26:42.359 --> 00:26:45.319
<v Speaker 1>covered field. The trunk of the car was opened and

466
00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:48.559
<v Speaker 1>all three men were dragged out. They were then ordered

467
00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:52.240
<v Speaker 1>to kneel in front of the car. Holly and Heather

468
00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:56.279
<v Speaker 1>knew with horrifying certainty that they were about to be shot,

469
00:26:56.880 --> 00:27:01.079
<v Speaker 1>yet they could do absolutely nothing. Forced from their vehicle

470
00:27:01.079 --> 00:27:03.839
<v Speaker 1>and made to neil beside the three men in the snow.

471
00:27:04.599 --> 00:27:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Heather knelt beside her boyfriend Aaron, sorry former boyfriend, Aaron,

472
00:27:09.240 --> 00:27:12.559
<v Speaker 1>while Holly was taken her place right next to her

473
00:27:12.599 --> 00:27:20.440
<v Speaker 1>boyfriend Jason, or maybe I should say fiance. Then Aaron

474
00:27:21.119 --> 00:27:26.880
<v Speaker 1>pled for his life, his words broken by terror, saying please, no, sir, please,

475
00:27:27.599 --> 00:27:31.359
<v Speaker 1>and one by one, execution style, each one of them

476
00:27:31.519 --> 00:27:34.759
<v Speaker 1>were shot in the back of the head. When it

477
00:27:34.799 --> 00:27:37.960
<v Speaker 1>got to Holly, the gun was placed behind her head

478
00:27:38.039 --> 00:27:42.759
<v Speaker 1>and bang, she was shot. Hally's vision exploded with a

479
00:27:42.759 --> 00:27:45.480
<v Speaker 1>burst of gray with white all kind of mixed like

480
00:27:45.559 --> 00:27:48.720
<v Speaker 1>stars flashing as she collapsed onto the ground. But incredibly,

481
00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:52.240
<v Speaker 1>despite being shot in the back of the fucking head,

482
00:27:52.839 --> 00:28:00.039
<v Speaker 1>she remained conscious. She later described it as quote, I

483
00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:02.359
<v Speaker 1>felt the bullet hit the back of my head. It

484
00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:05.799
<v Speaker 1>went kind of gray with white like stars. I wasn't

485
00:28:05.839 --> 00:28:10.160
<v Speaker 1>knocked unconscious. I didn't fall forward in that moment. Someone

486
00:28:10.240 --> 00:28:13.559
<v Speaker 1>then kicked her, falling or pushing her forward, and she

487
00:28:13.640 --> 00:28:16.759
<v Speaker 1>immediately when she hit the ground, played dead, not moving.

488
00:28:17.000 --> 00:28:21.599
<v Speaker 2>Holy heck. Okay, well right there, as you were just

489
00:28:21.640 --> 00:28:24.559
<v Speaker 2>like describing what she felt, I was like, how are you?

490
00:28:25.319 --> 00:28:27.160
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there's been a few things. I'm like, how

491
00:28:27.160 --> 00:28:30.359
<v Speaker 2>are you describing what she certain things that she felt.

492
00:28:30.400 --> 00:28:32.880
<v Speaker 2>So there's been little like tidbits, yeap.

493
00:28:32.880 --> 00:28:39.000
<v Speaker 1>If you're not aware. This is described from Holly's perspective. Yeah, now,

494
00:28:39.039 --> 00:28:43.839
<v Speaker 1>after a terrifying, painful silence, as she lay there playing

495
00:28:43.880 --> 00:28:47.640
<v Speaker 1>dead in the snow, with her friends presumably dead next

496
00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:48.119
<v Speaker 1>to her.

497
00:28:48.240 --> 00:28:50.519
<v Speaker 2>Well, she can only hope that maybe the same happened

498
00:28:50.519 --> 00:28:51.079
<v Speaker 2>to them, though.

499
00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:57.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, she waited and she heard an engine rumbling, and

500
00:28:57.359 --> 00:29:00.279
<v Speaker 1>before Holly could even consider moving, the truck accelerated and

501
00:29:00.359 --> 00:29:06.119
<v Speaker 1>drove directly over all five bodies. What She fought with

502
00:29:06.240 --> 00:29:08.720
<v Speaker 1>every fiber of her being not to scream as a

503
00:29:08.799 --> 00:29:13.039
<v Speaker 1>vehicle moved across her, remaining silent and hum somehow still

504
00:29:13.200 --> 00:29:15.519
<v Speaker 1>remaining conscious as she's being run over.

505
00:29:15.839 --> 00:29:18.599
<v Speaker 2>Holy shit, she's been through so much already.

506
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:21.559
<v Speaker 1>And she listened as the sounds of the truck faded away,

507
00:29:21.599 --> 00:29:26.359
<v Speaker 1>moving further and further into the distance. Eventually, she dared

508
00:29:26.359 --> 00:29:28.440
<v Speaker 1>to move her head enough to confirm that the truck

509
00:29:28.759 --> 00:29:32.319
<v Speaker 1>and the two gunmen were gone. Struggling to move and

510
00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:35.039
<v Speaker 1>even breathe remember she'd been shot in the back of

511
00:29:35.079 --> 00:29:37.079
<v Speaker 1>the head and run over by a pickup.

512
00:29:37.119 --> 00:29:39.039
<v Speaker 2>Holly and abused for hours.

513
00:29:39.200 --> 00:29:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yeah, yes, you're right. Holly tried to call out

514
00:29:42.240 --> 00:29:48.119
<v Speaker 1>for Jason, Brad, Aaron, and Heather, but each name gave

515
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:48.759
<v Speaker 1>no response.

516
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:49.599
<v Speaker 2>No one answered.

517
00:29:50.640 --> 00:29:53.920
<v Speaker 1>Holly forced her injured body up from the snow, turned

518
00:29:54.039 --> 00:29:58.079
<v Speaker 1>to her friends, and her gaze fell upon the man

519
00:29:58.079 --> 00:30:02.279
<v Speaker 1>that she loved and her the other friends laying motionless,

520
00:30:02.359 --> 00:30:06.559
<v Speaker 1>face down in blood soaked snow. She was unsure if

521
00:30:06.559 --> 00:30:10.640
<v Speaker 1>anyone was still alive, and she collapsed beside Jason, desperately

522
00:30:10.680 --> 00:30:16.319
<v Speaker 1>turning him over. Blood was pouring out of Jason, even

523
00:30:16.599 --> 00:30:20.680
<v Speaker 1>out of his eyes. She quickly pulled off her sweater,

524
00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:23.640
<v Speaker 1>the only clothes she was wearing, and wrapped it around

525
00:30:23.680 --> 00:30:26.960
<v Speaker 1>his head, frantically trying to stop the bleeding in a

526
00:30:27.119 --> 00:30:33.279
<v Speaker 1>desperate attempt to save his life. However, he wasn't breathing,

527
00:30:34.440 --> 00:30:35.200
<v Speaker 1>he wasn't alive.

528
00:30:35.319 --> 00:30:36.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he was probably already gone.

529
00:30:37.519 --> 00:30:39.839
<v Speaker 1>Brad was next the next one she turned over, but

530
00:30:39.880 --> 00:30:42.440
<v Speaker 1>the horrific state of his body instantly confirmed that he

531
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:46.720
<v Speaker 1>was gone. Heather and Aaron lay in equal devastating conditions,

532
00:30:47.680 --> 00:30:51.200
<v Speaker 1>freezing cold, standing naked in the snow, blood seeping from

533
00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:53.960
<v Speaker 1>her gunshot wound in her head, and her body aching

534
00:30:54.039 --> 00:30:57.200
<v Speaker 1>from what had just occurred being run over, and as

535
00:30:57.240 --> 00:31:00.119
<v Speaker 1>you mentioned the assault as well. Holly frantically began and

536
00:31:00.119 --> 00:31:03.119
<v Speaker 1>searching for help, and then in the distance, near the

537
00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:05.960
<v Speaker 1>highway that was not too far off, she spotted lights

538
00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:12.039
<v Speaker 1>that glowed like a house adorned with Christmas decorations. Desperate

539
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:16.279
<v Speaker 1>her unimaginable injuries as she had, and being barefoot and nude,

540
00:31:16.319 --> 00:31:19.079
<v Speaker 1>she somehow managed to walk over a mile through the

541
00:31:19.119 --> 00:31:23.960
<v Speaker 1>freezing cold. Her journey led her across a field, over

542
00:31:24.039 --> 00:31:27.119
<v Speaker 1>barbed wire fences, passed a construction site, around a pond,

543
00:31:27.160 --> 00:31:30.680
<v Speaker 1>and through thick brush. As if the trek wasn't difficult enough,

544
00:31:30.799 --> 00:31:34.279
<v Speaker 1>every time headlights appeared on the road, she instinctively threw

545
00:31:34.680 --> 00:31:38.400
<v Speaker 1>herself down into the snow until they passed, because it

546
00:31:38.440 --> 00:31:39.880
<v Speaker 1>could be the attackers returning.

547
00:31:40.079 --> 00:31:40.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

548
00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:45.640
<v Speaker 1>Eventually she reached the house that was glowing with festive

549
00:31:45.720 --> 00:31:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Christmas tree at Christmas lights. She rushed to the front door,

550
00:31:49.279 --> 00:31:53.400
<v Speaker 1>pounding on it and rained the doorbell relentlessly. Inside, a

551
00:31:53.400 --> 00:31:56.440
<v Speaker 1>young couple peered out the window, shocked to see this

552
00:31:56.559 --> 00:32:00.559
<v Speaker 1>nude woman covered in blood shivering uncontrollably on their port.

553
00:32:00.920 --> 00:32:03.440
<v Speaker 1>They quickly hurried to bring her inside and wrapped her

554
00:32:03.480 --> 00:32:06.720
<v Speaker 1>in blankets, but before they could even dial nine on one,

555
00:32:07.440 --> 00:32:10.799
<v Speaker 1>Holly stopped them. Convinced she was on the verge of death,

556
00:32:11.119 --> 00:32:14.039
<v Speaker 1>she felt an overwhelming need to tell them everything that

557
00:32:14.079 --> 00:32:18.480
<v Speaker 1>had just happened in detail before help arrived. She needed

558
00:32:18.519 --> 00:32:20.599
<v Speaker 1>to get this all out because if she died now,

559
00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:24.480
<v Speaker 1>then no one would know she's the only survivor. So

560
00:32:24.640 --> 00:32:28.160
<v Speaker 1>listening to her horrifying account, the couple finally called the police.

561
00:32:28.599 --> 00:32:32.200
<v Speaker 1>Still remarkably coherent, Holly took over the phone and managed

562
00:32:32.240 --> 00:32:35.759
<v Speaker 1>to explain to the dispatcher precisely where the field was

563
00:32:36.079 --> 00:32:39.799
<v Speaker 1>guiding them to find her friends. She was still clinging

564
00:32:40.000 --> 00:32:43.039
<v Speaker 1>to the desperate hope that at least Jason might still

565
00:32:43.079 --> 00:32:46.000
<v Speaker 1>be alive, and that wrapping the sweater around his head

566
00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:48.839
<v Speaker 1>might have been the thing that could have saved him.

567
00:32:49.720 --> 00:32:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Detective Rick Craig, a seasoned officer, was among the first

568
00:32:53.720 --> 00:32:57.039
<v Speaker 1>emergency personnel to arrive at the field at around three

569
00:32:57.200 --> 00:33:01.640
<v Speaker 1>am that morning. As he approached this he initially shivered

570
00:33:01.640 --> 00:33:06.039
<v Speaker 1>from the bitter cold and biting wind. However, the sight

571
00:33:06.119 --> 00:33:08.759
<v Speaker 1>of the four nude bodies, each with a gunshot to

572
00:33:08.799 --> 00:33:11.680
<v Speaker 1>the back of their head, laying in the blood covered

573
00:33:11.720 --> 00:33:15.480
<v Speaker 1>snow instantly made him forget the chill that he was feeling,

574
00:33:15.920 --> 00:33:18.400
<v Speaker 1>because a whole new chill came over his body instead.

575
00:33:19.640 --> 00:33:23.119
<v Speaker 1>He later recalled, quote, I wasn't cold anymore.

576
00:33:24.640 --> 00:33:26.079
<v Speaker 2>We're basically just numb.

577
00:33:26.319 --> 00:33:31.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, As Holly had tragically confirmed her four friends, Jason Berefoort,

578
00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:37.640
<v Speaker 1>Brad Haka, Aaron Sanders, and Heather Mueller were all dead.

579
00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:42.400
<v Speaker 1>After speaking briefly with Holly before paramedics rushed her to

580
00:33:42.400 --> 00:33:46.359
<v Speaker 1>the hospital, detectives immediately issued an alert for Jason's stolen

581
00:33:46.400 --> 00:33:49.960
<v Speaker 1>truck It was later verified that the bullet intended for

582
00:33:50.000 --> 00:33:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Holly's brain had been miraculously deflected by a butterfly hair

583
00:33:56.279 --> 00:33:57.559
<v Speaker 1>clip that she was wearing.

584
00:33:58.559 --> 00:34:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Seriously, yeah, that's what ended up happening.

585
00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Yes, holy shit. And the truck that ran her over

586
00:34:07.920 --> 00:34:11.440
<v Speaker 1>also miraculously just failed to crush her body enough.

587
00:34:12.199 --> 00:34:15.840
<v Speaker 2>Holy that is like a miracle, really, hey.

588
00:34:15.639 --> 00:34:20.440
<v Speaker 1>One hundred percent of a miracle. Now, Tragically, what Holly

589
00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:23.159
<v Speaker 1>didn't know as she fought desperately for her life to

590
00:34:23.280 --> 00:34:26.719
<v Speaker 1>reach the house was that the two assailants had actually

591
00:34:26.719 --> 00:34:30.880
<v Speaker 1>returned to the triplex where they lived like the condo

592
00:34:31.440 --> 00:34:35.400
<v Speaker 1>yeah on Birchwood Drive, and continued their pillaging. Worse yet,

593
00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:38.000
<v Speaker 1>they had murdered Holly's beloved dog, Niki.

594
00:34:39.360 --> 00:34:40.320
<v Speaker 2>Of course they did.

595
00:34:40.360 --> 00:34:43.360
<v Speaker 1>Of course, Nikki was left in a pool of blood

596
00:34:43.440 --> 00:34:44.519
<v Speaker 1>on one of the beds.

597
00:34:44.559 --> 00:34:45.760
<v Speaker 2>Holy shit.

598
00:34:48.280 --> 00:34:53.719
<v Speaker 1>That morning, Sedwick County District Attorney Nola Fauston received grim

599
00:34:53.800 --> 00:34:59.519
<v Speaker 1>news detectives were investigating a quadruple homicide. Bizarrely, just eight

600
00:34:59.639 --> 00:35:05.159
<v Speaker 1>days earlier, another unrelated quadruple homicide had occurred in the area,

601
00:35:05.599 --> 00:35:10.239
<v Speaker 1>with the two perpetrators already in custody. Fulston initially thought

602
00:35:10.360 --> 00:35:14.599
<v Speaker 1>the dispatcher was simply mistaken, unable to comprehend that two

603
00:35:14.639 --> 00:35:17.360
<v Speaker 1>such devastating events could happen in the same county within

604
00:35:17.400 --> 00:35:21.239
<v Speaker 1>a single week. The entire city of Wichita was gripped

605
00:35:21.239 --> 00:35:24.480
<v Speaker 1>by disbelief and fear as the news of the horrors

606
00:35:24.599 --> 00:35:29.320
<v Speaker 1>unfolded on their television screens. That morning, new stations broadcast

607
00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:32.480
<v Speaker 1>the license plate number of Jason stolen truck, igniting a

608
00:35:32.519 --> 00:35:36.719
<v Speaker 1>wave of terror and urgency throughout the community. The desperate

609
00:35:36.800 --> 00:35:39.960
<v Speaker 1>hunt for these cold blooded killers had officially begun, and

610
00:35:40.039 --> 00:35:43.840
<v Speaker 1>Jason stolen truck his license plate number provided the first

611
00:35:44.159 --> 00:35:46.480
<v Speaker 1>significant break in the case.

612
00:35:47.840 --> 00:35:49.800
<v Speaker 2>Kate, they had done this already.

613
00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:55.119
<v Speaker 1>There is eight people dead. Yes, there was a quadruple homicide,

614
00:35:55.159 --> 00:35:58.039
<v Speaker 1>and then a few days later another quadruple homicide.

615
00:35:58.719 --> 00:36:04.679
<v Speaker 2>Wow. I mean I was sitting here already just like

616
00:36:04.840 --> 00:36:08.519
<v Speaker 2>completely gutted that they did this. And to think that

617
00:36:08.559 --> 00:36:12.760
<v Speaker 2>they had previously already done this, Yeah, Like, I can't

618
00:36:12.880 --> 00:36:15.599
<v Speaker 2>even believe that we live in a world with people

619
00:36:16.079 --> 00:36:18.800
<v Speaker 2>that fucked up and that disgusting.

620
00:36:19.079 --> 00:36:22.000
<v Speaker 1>Hm hmm. So the thing is, though, with the first

621
00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:25.480
<v Speaker 1>quadruple homicide, they did already have the perpetrators.

622
00:36:24.840 --> 00:36:28.440
<v Speaker 2>In custody, Okay, so it wasn't them, but still, so

623
00:36:28.480 --> 00:36:32.280
<v Speaker 2>that's even worse almost. That means that there's like numerous

624
00:36:32.280 --> 00:36:36.199
<v Speaker 2>people doing this kind of shit out there anyway.

625
00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well we'll talk about it. Don't worry, Okay. Now.

626
00:36:40.440 --> 00:36:43.400
<v Speaker 1>Christian Taylor, a local resident, was watching the news when

627
00:36:43.400 --> 00:36:46.280
<v Speaker 1>he recognized the description of the truck as one he'd

628
00:36:46.280 --> 00:36:49.400
<v Speaker 1>seen parked near his own apartment complex earlier that morning.

629
00:36:49.960 --> 00:36:52.880
<v Speaker 1>He immediately contacted police when he put these two together.

630
00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:56.960
<v Speaker 1>Officers quickly descended upon the apartment complex, confirming it was

631
00:36:57.000 --> 00:37:00.880
<v Speaker 1>indeed jason stolen vehicle. Then another resident approached the officers,

632
00:37:01.159 --> 00:37:04.119
<v Speaker 1>informing them he'd helped a man carry a large television

633
00:37:04.400 --> 00:37:08.760
<v Speaker 1>into an upstairs apartment. This tip, combined with the presence

634
00:37:08.760 --> 00:37:12.360
<v Speaker 1>of the stolen truck, was a major lead. I mean,

635
00:37:12.360 --> 00:37:14.639
<v Speaker 1>this guy literally knew exactly which apartment too.

636
00:37:14.679 --> 00:37:17.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, right, like they've obviously lived there, I guess.

637
00:37:17.159 --> 00:37:19.760
<v Speaker 1>So police surrounded that apartment and knocked on the door,

638
00:37:20.199 --> 00:37:23.519
<v Speaker 1>and moments later, a tall black man appeared on the balcony.

639
00:37:23.800 --> 00:37:26.000
<v Speaker 1>He was putting his foot up on the railing as

640
00:37:26.079 --> 00:37:28.960
<v Speaker 1>if preparing to jump over instead of answering the door,

641
00:37:29.320 --> 00:37:32.519
<v Speaker 1>and in that moment before he jumped. He froze because

642
00:37:32.639 --> 00:37:37.320
<v Speaker 1>he spotted officers who surrounded the building positioned below, so

643
00:37:37.360 --> 00:37:41.800
<v Speaker 1>he retreated back inside. A Caucasian woman, Stephanie Donnelly, answered

644
00:37:41.840 --> 00:37:44.960
<v Speaker 1>the door to police, who swiftly entered and handcuffed the

645
00:37:44.960 --> 00:37:48.079
<v Speaker 1>tall man who was appearing to find another exit or

646
00:37:48.119 --> 00:37:51.119
<v Speaker 1>another escape, and was clearly trying to escape from the balcony.

647
00:37:51.960 --> 00:37:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Now this individual was Reginald Carr, a twenty two year

648
00:37:55.280 --> 00:37:59.440
<v Speaker 1>old from Dodge City with a significant criminal history. He

649
00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:03.880
<v Speaker 1>perfectly matched Holly's description of the taller gunman. Police now

650
00:38:04.000 --> 00:38:08.119
<v Speaker 1>strongly suspected his younger brother, twenty year old Jonathan Carr,

651
00:38:08.280 --> 00:38:12.639
<v Speaker 1>to be the shorter assailant that was described. From Stephanie,

652
00:38:12.719 --> 00:38:17.000
<v Speaker 1>who was Reginald's girlfriend, officers learned that his brother, Jonathan

653
00:38:17.199 --> 00:38:20.760
<v Speaker 1>was driving a late model Plymouth Fury. This crucial piece

654
00:38:20.800 --> 00:38:24.960
<v Speaker 1>of new information was quickly spread in news reports by

655
00:38:24.960 --> 00:38:29.000
<v Speaker 1>that afternoon. Andrew Schibber Shribber, Shribber, that's how you say

656
00:38:29.039 --> 00:38:32.440
<v Speaker 1>his last name. Andrew Shribber, the Wichita State University baseball

657
00:38:32.480 --> 00:38:35.960
<v Speaker 1>player who had been robbed earlier days earlier. I should

658
00:38:36.000 --> 00:38:39.559
<v Speaker 1>say saw Reginald's face on the news. I mean he

659
00:38:39.639 --> 00:38:42.679
<v Speaker 1>sees this guy, and he instantly recognizes him without hesitation.

660
00:38:42.840 --> 00:38:45.639
<v Speaker 1>Andrew calls a police and he informs him that Reginald

661
00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:48.000
<v Speaker 1>was the one of the two men who had abducted

662
00:38:48.039 --> 00:38:51.199
<v Speaker 1>and robbed him. There's a lot going.

663
00:38:51.000 --> 00:38:54.719
<v Speaker 2>On in this, no kidding, And these guys are so young.

664
00:38:55.119 --> 00:38:58.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Now, this was the first concrete link that revealed

665
00:38:58.800 --> 00:39:01.679
<v Speaker 1>the car brothers who were responsible for an earlier string

666
00:39:01.679 --> 00:39:05.679
<v Speaker 1>of violence proceeding in the Birchwood massacre. Around the same time,

667
00:39:05.800 --> 00:39:10.719
<v Speaker 1>healthcare worker Tony Green returned home from work feeling unwell.

668
00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:14.719
<v Speaker 1>Inside her house, she noticed her daughter, Tronda's boyfriend sleeping

669
00:39:14.719 --> 00:39:17.559
<v Speaker 1>on the couch. They'd only been dating a couple of weeks,

670
00:39:17.559 --> 00:39:20.320
<v Speaker 1>and Tony didn't know him well. But as she looked

671
00:39:20.320 --> 00:39:23.639
<v Speaker 1>at him, having absorbed the morning's news report, she couldn't

672
00:39:23.639 --> 00:39:26.519
<v Speaker 1>shake the unsettling feeling that he matched the description of

673
00:39:26.559 --> 00:39:30.960
<v Speaker 1>one of the attackers. H Her instinct was tragically accurate.

674
00:39:31.039 --> 00:39:33.599
<v Speaker 1>The man that was right now sleeping on her couch

675
00:39:34.159 --> 00:39:36.840
<v Speaker 1>was one of the gunmen, the shorter one, the shorter brother,

676
00:39:36.960 --> 00:39:44.039
<v Speaker 1>Jonathan Carr. Holy frigg, trusting your gut, Tony cautiously lifted

677
00:39:44.079 --> 00:39:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Jonathan's leather jacket and searched his pockets, finding a small

678
00:39:48.039 --> 00:39:51.519
<v Speaker 1>jewelry box and inside was a diamond engagement ring that

679
00:39:51.599 --> 00:39:55.679
<v Speaker 1>she had heard was stolen in the news. It was

680
00:39:55.719 --> 00:39:57.880
<v Speaker 1>the very ring that Jason planned to give Holly for

681
00:39:57.920 --> 00:39:58.599
<v Speaker 1>their engagement.

682
00:39:58.880 --> 00:40:03.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, hidden in the popcorn container or something.

683
00:40:03.519 --> 00:40:06.760
<v Speaker 1>Yep. In that moment, she looked outside and guess what

684
00:40:06.840 --> 00:40:10.199
<v Speaker 1>she spotted the Plymouth fury parked on the street, the

685
00:40:10.320 --> 00:40:13.199
<v Speaker 1>very one that was being spread in the news. Now

686
00:40:13.360 --> 00:40:15.960
<v Speaker 1>certain she had a killer who was sleeping on the

687
00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:18.960
<v Speaker 1>couch in her house, Tony tried to remain as quiet

688
00:40:19.000 --> 00:40:21.440
<v Speaker 1>as possible as she instructed her daughter to grab her

689
00:40:21.440 --> 00:40:25.199
<v Speaker 1>young niece and leave the house immediately. Not fully grasping

690
00:40:25.199 --> 00:40:28.159
<v Speaker 1>the extreme urgency of this situation, Tronda slowly tried to

691
00:40:28.159 --> 00:40:31.559
<v Speaker 1>put her shoes on. You know, it's snowy outside, it's cold, right,

692
00:40:31.559 --> 00:40:33.719
<v Speaker 1>But Tony's like, no, like, get the fuck out now,

693
00:40:33.800 --> 00:40:37.679
<v Speaker 1>like quietly, like go, don't need shoes, just run. So

694
00:40:37.760 --> 00:40:40.119
<v Speaker 1>the three of them rushed out, their bare feet slipping

695
00:40:40.159 --> 00:40:42.000
<v Speaker 1>on the snow as they stumbled across the road to

696
00:40:42.039 --> 00:40:46.480
<v Speaker 1>a neighbor's house, and they dialed nine one point one panic.

697
00:40:46.559 --> 00:40:49.559
<v Speaker 1>Tony informed the dispatcher that the men were searching. The

698
00:40:49.559 --> 00:40:51.760
<v Speaker 1>men that they're searching for. Is it's in her home

699
00:40:51.960 --> 00:40:53.199
<v Speaker 1>right now? One of them's there.

700
00:40:53.400 --> 00:40:53.639
<v Speaker 2>Yep.

701
00:40:54.199 --> 00:40:56.800
<v Speaker 1>When she glanced back, Jonathan was standing on her porch

702
00:40:56.920 --> 00:40:59.960
<v Speaker 1>in jeans and a T shirt, staring directly at her.

703
00:41:00.079 --> 00:41:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Her then he bolted. Police units already in the area

704
00:41:06.039 --> 00:41:09.599
<v Speaker 1>arrived almost instantly and gave chase, pursuing him for two

705
00:41:09.639 --> 00:41:12.519
<v Speaker 1>blocks before they finally caught him and arrested him.

706
00:41:12.559 --> 00:41:15.079
<v Speaker 2>Okay, good. I was like, I was worried they weren't

707
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:16.519
<v Speaker 2>going to catch this bastard.

708
00:41:17.000 --> 00:41:19.840
<v Speaker 1>No, they got him. A search of his persons revealed

709
00:41:19.840 --> 00:41:22.719
<v Speaker 1>about one thousand dollars in cash and the stolen engagement ring.

710
00:41:23.679 --> 00:41:26.800
<v Speaker 1>Less than twelve hours after the horrors at Birchwood Drive,

711
00:41:26.960 --> 00:41:30.800
<v Speaker 1>both Reginald and John Carr were in police custody. The

712
00:41:30.840 --> 00:41:34.840
<v Speaker 1>city of Wichita exhaled, knowing that they were finally caught.

713
00:41:36.119 --> 00:41:38.199
<v Speaker 1>And that's where we're going to stop the episode for

714
00:41:38.280 --> 00:41:39.519
<v Speaker 1>part one.

715
00:41:40.159 --> 00:41:42.320
<v Speaker 2>Of course, of course it is I have like so

716
00:41:42.440 --> 00:41:44.800
<v Speaker 2>many questions and shit, but okay.

717
00:41:44.519 --> 00:41:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Okay, there's a lot to cover. Don't worry, y' there is, yeah,

718
00:41:47.920 --> 00:41:49.079
<v Speaker 1>questions answered.

<v Speaker 2>Well, and it's also like, fuck these guys, I don't

720
00:41:50.920 --> 00:41:54.840
<v Speaker 2>want to hear about them again. But okay, yeah, I

721
00:41:54.880 --> 00:41:57.360
<v Speaker 2>also like I kind of hope that Holly, I don't know,

722
00:41:57.679 --> 00:41:59.920
<v Speaker 2>in a way like gets that engagement ring still, you know.

723
00:42:00.239 --> 00:42:04.840
<v Speaker 2>But also it wouldn't mean it much not coming from

724
00:42:04.960 --> 00:42:07.119
<v Speaker 2>like her boyfriend, so.

725
00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:11.559

740
00:42:47.360 --> 00:42:50.480
<v Speaker 1>social links and website. All that good stuff. Reviews really

741
00:42:50.559 --> 00:42:54.639
<v Speaker 1>helped the show. We're an independent show. We're hosted, produced, researched,

742
00:42:54.719 --> 00:42:58.679
<v Speaker 1>written all on her own. It's myself and Nicole, my wife,

743
00:42:58.679 --> 00:43:00.960
<v Speaker 1>in our tiny home with our chickens in the backyard

744
00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:03.599
<v Speaker 1>and her dogs sleeping on their bed the bed their

745
00:43:03.599 --> 00:43:06.679
<v Speaker 1>beds next to us as they glare at us because

746
00:43:06.800 --> 00:43:08.679
<v Speaker 1>they want to go outside or go for a walk.

747
00:43:08.559 --> 00:43:11.480
<v Speaker 2>Because we're neglecting them. Apparently when we podcast.
