She had asked a couple other people before that, so he was a last resort. He was still playing the I'm your friend. What was Sean like that day?

Was that weird? Oh, her phone never went straight to voicemail. It was never off. At first, Jennifer thought she may have gotten lost on the drive or that her phone battery had died. It wasn't a thought at the time that something bad happened, just that... You know, where is she?

Sean, have you talked to Lori? And he goes, no, I haven't talked to her in a couple of days. Wasn't she supposed to get tickets the other night? And I'm like, yeah, she was. We haven't heard from her since. I'm like, you know, if she calls you, let us know because... The phone's off, and he's like, oh yeah, definitely, you know.

We would say things like, she got lost. You know, we'll get her. We'll find her.

We were suffering. And every day, our family was doing something to find her. We were looking for her. We were a well-oiled machine.

We had posters. We had signs. We had Sean's name up on signs. If anybody will speak to us.

I couldn't wrap my head around what they were saying. What do you mean she was found in the toolbox, in the water? I couldn't accept it.

I watched a little boy break. He said not a word.

And he wailed. It wasn't a cry. It was a pained, guttural wail. I'll always have that sound in my head.

Prison isn't even the right place for someone like him. It's not punishment enough.

I didn't think so. You don't want him getting out? No. There's no forgiveness.

It's not her fault. It's the system that failed. She did what she had to do. I don't blame her. I feel sad that she's felt guilt all this time. How do you want your sister to be remembered? Lorianne. She So fun, so funny, so loving.

We were supposed to be living in the same place and going out and raising our kids and having parties. And that's what it was supposed to be. That's what we were supposed to have. And I'm it. Just me and the kids trying to get along without her.

Her dream was to have a home, a father figure for her kids, and for them to be happy. She wanted the white picket fence. Jennifer Leonard was Lori's older sister. We were good friends, but I was a little bit of a bossy mother to her. I had been through a lot of things already in my life, in my relationships, and I was very, I would say, overprotective.

He was not charismatic. He was not social. He was like a piece of furniture that you just walked around. But she says Lori didn't agree.

She told me that he was a boxer, that he was protecting a woman at a bar, and was arrested because he used some of his professional boxing moves.

I didn't buy the stories that he was selling her. It sounded like he was trying to be something that he was not.

It was a little quiet. And things only got worse. I had called her... One night, and he was over there, and all I could hear in the background was him yelling at her. And I was like, what is this? And she's like, you know, I'll call you back. It's not a big deal. But I think what scared me more than anything was when he was caught yelling at her, it stopped.
