Carol Kennedy was a 53-year-old divorce she was a mother of two children uh she was an artist she
00:00:08
was an educator she lives in a somewhat secluded area outside of town a lot of open land I just loved Carol immediately
00:00:17
we were very good friends she was an absolutely beautiful pure loving person July 2nd of 2008 Carol Kennedy
00:00:28
was murdered in that house this all starts that Carol Kennedy's on a phone call with her mother next thing
00:00:34
you know the mother hears her say oh no and all of a sudden the call is disconnected Sheriff's Office BR how can
00:00:41
I help you mother suspects something's not correct and she calls 911 I was on the phone with my daughter and she
00:00:48
screamed and said oh no and the phone's gone dead can you go check and next thing you know the police
00:00:56
arrive somebody looks through the window and sees a dead body on the floor sees blood all over the place the person who
00:01:02
killed her and was very upset with her there's no reason to whack her seven eight times over the head with a club it
00:01:08
was a horrific crime scene we knew very little other than the fact that she had been clearly beaten to death it's
00:01:17
horrible just horrible I I mean I just can't believe a person would be so cruel my name is Joseph Moira I'm a
00:01:28
private investigator I was h di by 48 hours to look into this case this was a passion passion crime
00:01:37
this was clearly somebody who knew her and therefore the suspects are very limited to all a good
00:01:46
night my brother Steve and Carol were together for about 30 years they were just crazy in love for each other Steve
00:01:54
was a very successful financial adviser he had just been promoted to the senior vice president at UBS so he had a very
00:02:03
strong position and a job that he loved I always had a sense there both deeply in love with each other and that the
00:02:10
marriage had become toxic Steven de marer puts himself approximately a mile mile and a half
00:02:18
from this exact location the night of the murder he claims that he went for by Pride so obviously being the ex-husband
00:02:26
and uh putting himself in the area he becomes a immediately I want to be cooperative
00:02:32
okay and and I'm hoping like you said I I do my best to rule people out he's the
00:02:38
only person that hated her she was just too good no one else could do that to her they already don't believe him they
00:02:47
didn't buy his initial story they don't buy The Alibi of riding the bicycle they're saying oh we got our guy
00:02:55
Steve couldn't do this to anyone certainly not to Carol not to the mother of his
00:03:01
children from the defense point of view the biggest aspect of Reasonable Doubt in this case is the lack of physical
00:03:08
evidence there was none on his bike there was none in his car there was none in his house there was none in his
00:03:15
clothing there should have been something as an American you're entitled to your innocent until proven guilty boy
00:03:24
we found out that that wasn't true if you decide that you're going to a arrest Steve Dem marker for the murder of his
00:03:31
wife without any physical evidence whatsoever you better have a very strong circumstantial case they cannot put
00:03:39
Steve inside that murder scene so there's nothing we're going to find that's going to tell you that I don't
00:03:44
know I wasn't there I wouldn't do that okay what we do know is the DNA under Carol Kennedy's left fingernails is a
00:03:53
complete profile and it's not Steven deer [Music]
