We always had hope that we were going to get to the end of this.
Dateline NBC
A Walk Through the Woods
We got a voice recording. We got a picture. Albeit as grainy, we got a sketch from eyewitnesses that saw the guy. How do we not have him in today's world?
Dateline NBC
A Walk Through the Woods
Through strength of the Lord, you know, prayer, and this faith that the good Lord's going to see this thing through.
Dateline NBC
A Walk Through the Woods
You know, and you start to ride up that roller coaster because of the connections made, right? We talked to Libby the day of or day before.
Dateline NBC
A Walk Through the Woods
Yeah, seems like a suspect. It seemed like it had the most potential up to that point.
Dateline NBC

That's how we said we were going to operate, and we stuck to that.

Of course, it's getting cold. It is February. It was warm out during the day. So we're all thinking, all right, eventually we're going to find him here, right?

Those photos should have been protected. Should have never got to that point. I'm sorry, I'll call it out. The defense team has culpability in that.

Yeah, 100%. And it's like, oh, yeah, yeah, by the way, I did kill those Delphi girls, you know.

Keep your faith. In your deepest, darkest times, sometimes a good prayer or somebody say they're saying a prayer for you, it does help. Don't ever take for granted what you have today. Hug those kids. Tell them all you love them.

A Walk Through the Woods
Two girls who had so much to offer. We weren't going to let up until we found this guy.
Dateline NBC
A Walk Through the Woods
From that point on, a lot of things are really glazed over or a daze. Because you're like, this isn't really happening, you know, type thing. But... They'd made an announcement that they'd found two girls, but they couldn't confirm the identity.
Dateline NBC
A Walk Through the Woods
Well, yeah. Small community. Two girls missing, two girls found.
Dateline NBC
A Walk Through the Woods
