right now we're in pitcher Canyon it's about 4 miles south of wachi it's a place that there's really no reason to
00:00:11
be this time of year and this time of night unless you live here when we think of pitcher Canyon
00:00:17
anybody who was here in 2010 they're always going to think of the McKenzie Cal case Mckenzie was a senior in high
00:00:24
school she was on the verge of being grown up this wasn't your normal missing person's case February 9th of 2010 and I
00:00:33
last saw her as she packed up her bundles of books and left between 7:00 and 7:30 in the
00:00:41
morning had of made a quick little date see you T night for Teryaki Burgers okay
00:00:46
Dad love [Music] you so I was expecting her home called about 5:40 that's when the phone went straight
00:00:56
to her voicemail it wasn't it didn't even ring of course you go through different waves
00:01:02
of messages one message will be call me I'm concerned one message will be now I'm getting irritated you haven't called
00:01:09
me back and then the next message might be I'm sorry I was irritated call me when you can maybe something's
00:01:17
wrong something a little unusual happened here that night a Rancher came down uh found a red
00:01:25
car here that didn't belong here and he called it in the deputy came up here he ran the license plate they
00:01:37
contacted the registered owner Reed Cal the phone rang and it was a deputy who was asking if I was missing my car
00:01:47
and I told him yeah I'm missing my car and the girl that drives [Music] it I said where's the car and he told me
00:01:58
it was up pit your C Canon so I hopped in the car and headed straight that direction here we are driving it's dark
00:02:08
it's cold when I pulled around the corner all I saw was the red car with flashing
00:02:17
police lights it was a pretty ominous thing to see nobody's checked the car and they found that MacKenzie's purse
00:02:26
was inside well that's really not right Kinzie doesn't go anywhere without her purse this is not good somebody's messed
00:02:34
with her there was a lot of concern right away that something had happened to McKenzie that was just a long dark evil
00:02:43
strange night McKenzie went missing shortly after 3:00 p.m. on February 9th her body was discovered around 1:00
00:02:54
February 13th on the banks of the Columbia River I mean it just made me Cold Stone
00:03:01
numb it was just blank the day that we found McKenzie and we saw how brutally she'd
00:03:08
been murdered we knew we were in for one tough investigation the list went on and
00:03:13
on hold it right there so many different suspects that we didn't know what to think
00:03:18
