True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
We discovered that he was getting ready to auction off all of April's belongings and hadn't given anything to Kim. How crushing was that for you?
20/20
True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
She was like a whirlwind. She would come in and she would make a lasting impression on everyone.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
This video changes everything. The husband of a murdered South Jersey radio host and advocate is behind bars following an early morning standoff.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
She is. She latches on and she's not letting go until she gets what she's looking for. She's the mini April.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
She made everybody feel like they were her best friend. Didn't matter who they were, the checkout, the parking lot cart guy. you know, hey beautiful, hey handsome, how you doing today?
20/20
True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
She had a really rough childhood. When April was 11, her mother gave her brothers and sister up for adoption and April was raised by her grandmother and her brothers and sister were put into foster care.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
You know, I think she had her thirst for being, you know, feeling loved. She just wanted to be loved.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
She was an incredible mom. She seemed to just instinctively know what to do.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
She always spoke to Kimberly like a little adult. And we used to call her Agnes, Agnes Beeswax. because she was this little old soul. April just wanted the best for her and gave her the best that she possibly could. You know, she worked hard.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
She just was so caring, so compassionate. She just was an inspiration to everybody.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Family Secrets
You listen back to that and you think, does she have a premonition? It's kind of like she was trying to tell us something, I believe.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
Why would you want your husband killed? She really did not talk about it at all. I think she knew that it was an uncomfortable situation for everyone.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
We were all trying to be upbeat and positive and like, it's going to be fine. We can work through this. You know, we'll help you out. But she seemed a little, maybe a little defeated. There was a look in her eyes that I hadn't quite ever seen before.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
And then in hindsight, I immediately realized she came there to say goodbye.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
People fell to their knees crying. It was completely, just completely shocking.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
Losing her career and her reputation, I just think she just didn't want to live like that anymore. And mostly losing her daughter was the biggest thing.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
I felt honored to have her as my friend. She was so successful and so beautiful and funny and intelligent.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
It was a lot of fun. We swam. We just enjoyed each other's company. She would
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
She gave me lists of women that he had slept with. She knew that there had been some adultery. I knew that because she talked to me about it.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
She was just unhappy. There was a void that wasn't being filled there.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
She was very much in love with him. She said it multiple times. I'm completely in love with him.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Toxic Love
Very arrogant and full of himself. I've just never seen anything quite like that. And I've got a pretty strong intuition about people, and I did not feel good about it, and I let her know that.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
We just talked about homework. We procrastinated over the weekend, just getting it done.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Not when she was texting me. At this point, I was like, okay, like, this is it. Like, they broke up for good. Like, she's getting back to normal. Riley's out of the picture. It just all seemed normal.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
I was confused. All I knew is she was dead, and there was nothing I could do.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
It didn't register in my mind. No one would expect our Emma to be, you know, dead.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
He ended up telling me, like, that night he was so fearful for his life that he had stolen his grandfather's gun. And he showed it to me.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
I was very worried. He reassured me over and over again that he was the farthest thing from suicidal. He was just so scared of these people. I had to get him. I had to get Emma.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Fridays, everybody's excited at school to see how well we do. It's what our school revolves around, so it's exciting.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
I told him he had no reason to withhold the weapon if he had nothing to hide and that if anything, it could prove that he was innocent.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
I asked him just outright, like, what happened to the gun that you showed me? And he said, I returned it to my grandpa. You don't have to worry about it. And his mom walks out and begins questioning Riley in front of me about the whereabouts of the gun.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
He's frantic about getting caught. He was on edge. And he was like, the only thing we can do is I just have to get rid of it. I have to get rid of the gun in order for me not to get pinned for something that I didn't do. In order for me not to go to jail for something that I didn't do, I have to get rid of this weapon. That's when I knew he did it.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Emma really took cheerleading seriously. She really loved doing it, you know, it was one of her passions. She loved leading and she loved football games. She loved just being part of crowd appeal.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Yeah, I just knew that if there was a chance that he could get rid of the murder weapon, You should stop it. I had to stop it.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
I was just fearful that maybe justice couldn't have been done if we made the wrong move.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
He tells us that he doesn't have the gun on him and we have to go pick it up from his stepfather's house. He said that he had it done in the basement, me and Noah wait in the car. He didn't want us to come in. He comes back with his trash bag.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
He was, like, putting on white gloves and waiting, everything. Very meticulous about how he got everything out. And then we just like kept waiting, kept waiting.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Actually, it was a good three or four, maybe up to five minutes of him having the gun out and getting other things out after Noah had already texted the keyword and that the cops finally, like, did show up to where we weren't.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Emma was very kind and warm-hearted, but she was goofy, too, at the same time.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
She could do the worm. You know, all of her other moves were kind of like, okay, Emma, you should probably stop now.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
No, he's a little nerdy on the side. A little to himself, kind of. From the outside looking in, you would just think he's just a normal guy.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
They had fun. They seemed like they really liked each other. We were happy for her that she found someone that she really liked.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
At first, it was just kind of normal, like nothing out of the ordinary. He didn't really talk to us, her friends, a lot, but I was just like, oh, he's shy, like new boyfriend. It just seemed normal, but then after a while was when we got kind of concerned.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
That he didn't really have any interest in getting to know her friends and... He kind of became controlling over her, what she did, her activities.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
He got more possessive and more clingy towards her and, you know, wouldn't let her do certain things.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
They were really dramatic, I would say, just because... It was usually just like yelling at each other or just like harmful words towards each other.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
When things got really intense and bad, he would wait outside her work for her to get off, and he would just wait outside for hours. Just wait.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
I told her, and some of the other friends told her, just like... You could do better like we don't like him, but like she just kind of brush it off. She did her own thing.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Riley didn't speak to her the way that a guy should talk to a girl. It was just disrespectful.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Riley gave Emma an iPod Touch, and she texted him through the Wi-Fi.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
This wasn't a good relationship, so she broke up with him. Yes, finally.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
I'm getting these really weird text messages saying that Riley's been kidnapped.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Riley, he's like, I've been kidnapped. I don't know what's happening. Where am I? Holding his head like you got hit upside the head.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Well, we are done for good. She just came to the realization that she deserved better, like this wasn't a good relationship, so she broke up with him. And then we were all like... Yes, finally, like, it's happening, like, what we've been waiting for.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
He would just, like, be, like, off to the side, like, moping, saying things like, I just feel so depressed, like, I want to hurt myself, blah, blah, blah, blah. It was just things that he would just, like, say a lot. It was just like a cry for help, I guess, in a way.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
I walk in, and Emma's, like, coming out of the bathroom, and she's like, I'm getting these really weird text messages. Come outside alone if you don't want to see a loved one get hurt.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
Yeah, she was just feeling really weird about it. I mean, it was a random number.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
We end up going back outside, and we look, and we see a body laying face down, like just a dark figure.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
And then we finally get to him, and he's holding up his head, kind of has this confused face on. He's like, Emma's like, why are you here? He's like, I don't know what happened. I don't know how I got here. I've been kidnapped. Someone dropped me off here. I don't know what's happening. Where am I? How did I get here? Holding his head like he got hit upside the head, kind of.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
He was kind of up there near like kind of the shrub, like where those thin trees are kind of laying down.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Shot in the Dark
She's just a little girl. You think she's faking it? She has adult teeth? There are signs of puberty?
20/20
True Crime Vault: Undercover Mother
Ich war in der Schule. Ich war in der Schule für Ingenieurarbeit.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Undercover Mother
Seine Mutter war weg und er hatte ein großes Haus. Es war die einfache Wahl.
20/20
True Crime Vault: Undercover Mother
Yeah, I'm assuming that he was friends with one of the girls or something like that.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I remember my mom getting a phone call from Karen. She made a scream that I can't describe. She goes, it's Karen. You know, Haley's dead. And I said, what are you talking about? And I remember I fell to my knees.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I screamed so loud. I went numb. I couldn't walk. My roommates had to carry me up to my bed. And I just, I think I couldn't feel anything, nothing made sense.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I was getting ready to go out on a double date with Christina, actually. And one of our other friends had texted me, hey, have you heard the news?
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
She was just such a bubbly person, opened up to anyone. She was friendly with a huge heart.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I called Sydney and I said, is this real? and she did confirm, yes, it's real.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
When you think about the trajectory of your life, you don't expect something this tragic happened to your best friend.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
We were both in disbelief, and the first guy that popped into our head was Orlando.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
We did not have to hear about any suspects from the police. We did not have to wait for her family to confirm who it was. We immediately knew that it was him because of what he had previously done to Haley.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Coming to ABC and Hulu. Amanda Riley was a mother, wife, speaker at her church. And then she got diagnosed with cancer.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
A beloved young Christian woman fighting a battle undeserved. We thought she was God's gift, but she was a liar.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Haley and I became close in second grade when we actually shared a class together.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
One morning, Haley had sent me a Snapchat of her tires being slashed.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
We met in second grade. Her and our friend Sydney both came up to me and asked me if I wanted to play, and I said yes, and we have been best friends ever since. Sydney, Haley, and I spent a lot of time together. Every Friday, we would go and get pizza. We would make some YouTube videos. All right, put the car in drive, and we'll go. Okay! That was a major part of our childhood.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
And Hailey's car was outside of her apartment. The only person that Hailey could think of that had the motive to slash her tires was Orlando. Orlando was jealous of Hailey dating Kevin, dating other people, dating in general.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
It was a night that she had been with Kevin.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
And I guess that just made Orlando very angry. And it led him to slash her tires.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
It did become a messy situation. Kevin and Hailey would try to rekindle their relationship, and she would kind of stop talking to Orlando for a period of time. You can tell that problems were starting to arise, though. You can tell there was a jealousy factor coming from Orlando. And you could tell things were getting messy between Kevin and Hailey.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
But the biggest difference was that Orlando wanted to control every one of Haley's moves.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I'll be coming for you. He wanted her all to himself. He was very possessive.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
At that time, he decided to just slash her tires.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
And the next day, we told her to file a police report. And she did file the police report, so it would be documented.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Haley didn't want to ruin Orlando's chance of being a nurse.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Orlando did admit to slashing her tires and gave Haley money to pay for the tires to be replaced. And then they kind of just moved on from that.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I was very concerned for her, but in Haley's point of view, it was already handled, you know, it's fine, and that was that.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I was told from her and some of her friends that Orlando was becoming obsessive over her.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
He would be mad if she was hanging out with her friends, doing something without him. He wanted to know where she was, what exactly she was doing, how long she was gonna be there. There was sometimes he would show up on her doorstep uninvited, and when asked to leave multiple times, he wouldn't, and he would just stay out there.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
And he had the way with his words where he could make a sob story out of his life. And the type of person Haley was felt for those type of people, because she just had such a kind heart. So regardless of these things he was doing, she felt for him. When you have someone psychologically taking advantage of you, it kind of blurs your vision.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
So I think for us, it was such an easy thing to say, stop talking to him. But it's someone she saw every day in clinicals. It's someone she had a history with. So it was a lot easier said than done for her.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Growing up, we were both creative people, but Haley would go do field hockey and track, and she was athletic, she was intelligent. She was on every single honor roll that you could possibly want to be on.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
It just made the emotions, you know, so much stronger because it's like now not only do we know that she was murdered, but she was murdered in such a brutal way. So that was really hard to accept and understand.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
She was literally the greatest person ever. She never didn't have a smile on her face. This is not an easy office at all.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Haley was extremely self-sufficient. She grew up in a way where, I mean, her mom was a great example for that. Karen did a lot of things on her own. Karen basically raised her by herself.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
When I found out Orlando had fled the country, I was extremely angry. The thing that makes me the most angry about the whole situation is that he just left her there. in that room, in that bed. And it's like, you do something so horrible, but it's like maybe you have this small fiber inside of you to like feel for somebody. But he didn't. He left my best friend laying on that bed.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
And he didn't care. He has no remorse. And he's a coward.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
She always wanted everyone around and everyone to be happy, and she didn't want anyone to leave her again, which anyone going through as a child a divorce feels that way. In high school, when people were normally rebelling and going out on parties and sneaking out of the house, Haley was the complete opposite of that. She was a straight-A student. She was a tutor.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
He apparently was in a hospital there, and I believe somebody there recognized him and called the cops, and he was arrested right outside of the hospital grounds.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
When we found out he was caught, it was initially a sense of relief, but then that also meant nothing because she was still gone. While we felt safer knowing he was caught, that just led to more question, what's next? We had no idea what was going to happen.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I knew that Orlando had dual citizenship, so I wasn't sure whether or not he would be extradited to the United States to have a trial.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Femicide occurs in every country, but it's not recognized as femicide in most countries.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Once we found out he would be going to trial down there, I was glad to hear that he was being charged with femicide and not homicide because what he did was the brutal murder of a woman based off of their prior relationship. So I thought that was a very appropriate charge that should be brought upon him.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
When the story broke, I was still very in the twilight zone of, how could this happen to our friend?
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
The whole situation was very weird to me, but I was happy that he was being tried and he was being held accountable.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Seeing Orlando throughout the trial was one of the craziest things because he sat there looking bored the entire time.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
He did not speak, which I know in trials, usually the person being accused doesn't really go on the stand, but it was extremely frustrating, because you're almost like, oh, you know, maybe you're gonna watch Orlando on this trial, and maybe you're gonna see some kind of reaction, or he's gonna admit to what he's done, and there was absolutely nothing.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
She really did a great job. His defense was honestly horrible. They tried to, you know, pull that insanity thing or that he was under the influence of alcohol. I mean, it was all horrible.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
It provided a sense of relief that at least that portion of justice was served.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
it gives us a little bit of a peace of mind that, you know, we were able to get the closure that we needed, or at least that I needed.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Wake up alone with the fire in the hole
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
After Haley's death, we had attended her graduation, and they had a picture for her on the chair for the nursing program. So that was nice, and they said her name, and it was nice to be able to honor her in that way.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I started volunteering on a domestic violence hotline called RAINN, which is the nation's largest anti-sexual domestic violence organization. And I hope that I've saved at least one person from a situation like Hailey's.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I want people to be aware of signs of controlling or abusive people in their life. And I want you to know that there's help and there's ways to reach out to people. And if you have a friend that is in a situation like my friend was, please tell someone. And I hope that if this saves literally one person's life, then it was worth it for me to be here and relive this.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
As a kid who grew up in Long Island, it's very common for you and a lot of your friends to go to SUNY schools. At that time, Binghamton was, I mean and still is, has such a high regard as a SUNY school. And so when she made the decision to go there, I was very excited for her.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
I think Hailey was starting to become her own when she went away to college. She didn't really have too much of an idea of what she wanted to do right away and it's when she found nursing then that really clicked for her.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
She was excited to be a nurse. You could tell she really had a liking to it.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
She had always wanted to travel, and she thought, you know, maybe if I become a nurse, maybe I could do travel nursing. She hadn't decided on that, but it just opened up this world of things that she didn't even know was possible.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
As much college is for the academic aspect, it's just as important for your social aspect to figure out who you are as an individual away from your friends and family. And Haley took advantage of that, which everyone going to college should, and she wanted to see what she liked, see what she didn't like, and take the time to figure that out before making any concrete decisions.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
A couple of years into her college career, she told us she had met a guy named Kevin. He was very sweet. He was very cute. They hit it off. It seemed like they had a really good relationship at first.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
relationship. He supported Haley in a way that, you know, me and my sisters supported Haley. He let her be Haley.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
but I know that they always stayed in contact. So even in their off period, they were still texting. They would hang out periodically. Despite her liking to Kevin, she still had that itch to just meet new people.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Hoke-up culture exists. You're in college. You want to have fun. Like any typical college student, she was just dating around.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Hailey had met Orlando in her nursing program, sophomore year.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Their relationship started purely friendship. I know that through time, it became more of a romantic relationship, but it was never a, you know, a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
Kevin and Orlando were in the same fraternity at Binghamton. I knew they were friendly. They were both from Spanish-speaking backgrounds, so they had that in common. So I think as the relationship with Kevin and Hailey ended, and then Hailey was on and off again with Orlando, Kevin, while it probably made him upset, allowed Haley to do what she wanted to.
20/20
Death in the Dorms Season 2: Episode 2: Haley Anderson
It was very casual. She did make it clear to Orlando that she did not want anything serious.

Wild Crime: Because They're Mine | S4 Ep. 3
Julie's been my big sister forever. She was my big sister that I took care of. Took care of her, and she took care of me. I knew she liked to swim. Every day that the pool was open, she was in there with me.
20/20
Wild Crime: Because They're Mine | S4 Ep. 3
I rode my bike almost every inch of Calvo looking for Julie. All the way up to the mountains at the cross.
20/20
Wild Crime: Mask of Sanity | S4 Ep. 4
It wasn't really foreign of me to think like, is he really missing or has he gone somewhere? But that's when things really started kind of being weird.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
She was just so sweet. She just had just a heart for people, just sweet. She was just so loving.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
And so this is a picture of me and Sabrina at the beach at her son's birthday. We became instant friends. Our boys are a week apart and we found out that we were married on the same day in the same year. Her husband passed away and so did mine. She was involved in a church. She's an amazing mom. She adored her kids and that was her focus then to be the best mom she can be.
20/20
Unholy Matrimony
It was one weekend we went, we took my daughter to a soccer tournament and we got a room for our kids. and a room for us. And that's when she shared her life with me, told me what happened, and about her husband being murdered, and that's when I kind of learned the story.

When I met Michael, he had like a rat tail haircut and with the spiked hair. We just kind of developed a good warm relationship.

Small Town, Big Con
Oh yeah, yeah. He was playing like the peewee baseball. You could just tell right then. He just took to it and was just like a natural.

Small Town, Big Con
It is just sad, you know. We went to the funeral. It just all seems surreal. Everything's just kind of like you're like in this fog, you know, just unimaginable.

Small Town, Big Con
Yeah, you know, they've just, they're starting their life now. Been starting their family. You know, they've got good jobs.

Small Town, Big Con
I was Michael's dad. He was a proud dad. He doted on his kids and was a good provider, was involved with them, the school activities and stuff.

What did he get from Mexico, do you know? I don't know the name of the steroid, but it was definitely an anabolic.
20/20
Small Town, Big Con
He got sick, and I feel like around that time is when you could just notice that he started to change a little bit, just forgetting stuff all the time. And he was more aggressive. Towards whom? Aggressive? Towards everybody.

Small Town, Big Con
You know, I could just feel my, my spirit and everything just point out, you know, this, this is what it's supposed to be.

Small Town, Big Con
I missed her at my high school graduation. I missed her on the day I moved into college. I'm begging you to give her mercy so that I don't have to miss more.

Small Town, Big Con
Yeah. Not able to get up there to his gravesite. So I said, well, you know, keep it, you know, right here close. Anytime we want to go, we can just come right here.

Small Town, Big Con
When Donna and I, sometimes we kind of sit around down here, there'll be like a butterfly that'll come around. And I told Donna, I said, well, I said, there's little Michael. So we've got a little cut out flower over there that he's always down here.

Mountain of Lies
No tears, no sign that he had been crying, no, you know, struggling with his voice to get the words out. This is not a normal grieving husband. That's when I felt like something's not right here.

It was how Tony's life started when she got married to Harold. And I thought, how insulting and hurtful to Tony's family.
20/20
Mountain of Lies
Most people didn't know that Harold was married before. I thought, oh my gosh, you know, this is two wives for Harold that have died now. The similarities are too eerie to ignore.

Most people didn't know that Harold was married before and that his first wife had died.

Mountain of Lies
But I thought, oh my gosh, you know, this is two wives for Harold that have died now. Because we had some suspicions that Tony's death was not as Harold was making it sound, I made the phone call to the Larimer County Sheriff's Office. I did do it anonymously, and other people had done the same thing.

He smiles all the time. He laughs all the time. So when I first met him, I thought, gosh, this is a great guy. When we were moving quickly towards Lynn's and Harold's wedding, it was clear that Harold was in charge.

So Lynn and Harold got married, but then almost immediately, Harold was saying, we need to move to Colorado. So he takes her away.
20/20
Mountain of Lies
I called Lynn one day and I said, can we talk? You know, this was a good time for me. And she said, no, no, no. Can you call back later when Harold's here? And she said, as a couple, we've decided that whenever we talk to family, we want to both be on the phone at the same time.

I ended up texting Dr. Henthorn just to say congratulations, have a great weekend, be safe, have a great time, see you Monday. And I never heard back from her.

He was telling me about what he's searching for in Hawaii, just to relax and enjoy his life. And I thought to myself, he's going to have a really good life.

Manhunt: Luigi Mangione and the CEO Murder - A Special Edition of 20/20
We were at the book club and he was the only one who really read the entire book. I was shocked. Everyone was there for wine and food and he was the only one that was there for the book.
