00:00:10
[Music] she was my best friend sometimes she was my only friend I wish every single day of my
00:00:23
life that I could have my mom back my mom died when I was 11 some people think it was an accident
00:00:33
some people think it was a suicide but I know it was a [Music] murder my dad murdered my
00:00:43
mom failen is a good person I have never hurt anybody in my life ever I emergency I just got a distress
00:00:55
call from a friend of mine he said that his wife is unconscious Doug called me very frantic he just said he found her
00:01:04
in the tub and that she was not responding to him she's not responding this wasn't
00:01:14
working I had my hand on the door handle to her bedroom as it was happening your
00:01:21
mom drowned in her own bathtub I've been working on this story for a number of years by all accounts
00:01:33
fine Grant is a wonderful woman very very close to her family and especially close to her
00:01:40
church this is something my mom wrote in her journal I love my family and don't want to leave them but it is Heavenly
00:01:48
father's will that I leave this Mortal sphere to fulfill a mission on the other side of the veil she also wrote I must
00:01:55
have faith in Doug's Vision he dreams it every night now that I will get to go to
00:02:01
the Celestial Kingdom Douglas Grant used organized religion in killing failing Grant the
00:02:09
motive in this case is a married man wanting to be with a younger woman I'm the lucky
00:02:17
one think what you want to think that's fine have there been other wom in his life yes but he's not a
00:02:25
murderer I know that my brother Doug is innocent I mean if you saw the volumes of letters that she wrote her journals
00:02:35
it's bizarre here is a woman who has talked to God God has told her that she's going
00:02:42
to die she did not want to die but it was Mr Grant's Vision that she would and she accepted the death sentence that was
00:02:50
Meed out by her husband I didn't kill my wife never in a million years this one is a classic it's got
00:03:01
this epic sweep of sex drugs and religion homicide suicide or accident was there even a murder
00:03:12
here deadly prophecy [Music] [Applause] [Music] things I want to have in a spouse loves the beauty of the
00:03:49
earth sunrise sunset I will be with you always failing it sounds very poetic watching
00:04:03
sunsets it just made all the difference in the world but eight years after faen Grant's
00:04:10
death rejection relevance her husband Doug Grant is fighting for his future sir is that a
00:04:17
yes or a no on trial for her murder you had Visions in church right no so she's a liar isn't it true that you were there
00:04:26
to Snoop no absolutely not you knew he was another woman's husband yes I did she wanted these letters to be rid of
00:04:35
right objection ask and answered sorry I'm confused sorry confused and he swears
00:04:42
not guilty I was just yelling filine filine objection relevance this has nothing to do with failing he just wants
00:04:50
to tell a story indeed he does want to tell his story a story that begins in 1993 the second he laid eyes on a
00:05:06
striking 27-year-old single mother named failen EES at his gym near Phoenix she's
00:05:14
a great person loved life loved her family Doug Grant just another day at the office for Doug Grant Doug is
00:05:23
uniquely qualified at the time Doug Grant was a 27-year-old divorce a single D there's a lot of confusion in the
00:05:31
market and a rising star in the world of nutrition what's the difference of real
00:05:36
F and drunk food the carrot is the real food right with a growing list of celebrity
00:05:43
clients the assist like Charles Barkley and Danny a of the Phoenix Suns Doug gives Good Counsel to the players what
00:05:50
we're trying to do with just focusing on their immune system he remembered faen from high
00:05:56
school she'd recently divorced and had two kids Austin and Jana my mom is the type of lady you meet
00:06:04
and you're like wow I want to be friends with her I came home one day and I had a
00:06:09
new CD and it was that song at no mountain [Music] high I grabbed the shampoo bottle she
00:06:18
had like the telephone and we're jumping up and down on the couch playing the song over and over again and just
00:06:23
singing that's my mom oh there's Doug and bileen at first first Doug's sister Tammy Fuentes says it seemed a perfect
00:06:33
match Fen is a lot like Doug especially since they were both Mormons she also loved nutrition and helping
00:06:41
others they married just four months after their first date she's a good person and brought out the good and
00:06:50
Doug however Jenna worried Doug wasn't bringing out the good in her mother he's the man of the house and she listens to
00:06:58
what he says so there was never any question who was ruling the roost tier it was always
00:07:03
dead doug needed to guide faen says Tammy who was becoming alarmed by her new sister-in-law's mood swings she was
00:07:13
either really up really happy or she was really really sad or depressed but would
00:07:18
never admit she needed help I would go to their house and she would be in her bedroom with the door
00:07:26
locked and the children would just be there and I would want to see her and they would say no no don't bother
00:07:35
her she says fa spent much time alone writing in her journal not uncommon in the Mormon faith or praying at the
00:07:45
temple sometimes for hours I do feel it was fanatical to the point Tammy says that by the late '90s
00:07:56
faen had lost touch with reality she said I've been to the temple and God has told me that I need
00:08:05
to divorce Doug Tammy remembers faen even said God had told her why Doug had a girlfriend faen had no proof of an
00:08:19
affair but God's word was enough she filed for divorce he was devastated he is truly a family man she
00:08:30
thought you were having an affair yes was that true not at the time maybe not right then but Doug had
00:08:40
had affairs including one with a Louisiana beauty queen and then in 2000 in the midst of
00:08:48
his divorce Along Came more Temptation vibrant bubbly great person for the job and a
00:09:00
great person to later feature in his promotional materials real yogurts are a fun and healthy snack a new receptionist
00:09:08
and fellow Mormon Hillary dwit age 19 Doug Grant fell hard I became romantically involved with
00:09:18
Hillary right at the divorce of filine not before Oh No in fact after his divorce from fa
00:09:27
Doug says he had cleaned up his ass act gone through church counseling and planned to marry Hillary I don't know
00:09:34
that I can express my love my devotion I'm in awe of him to be honest in August of 2001 though those
00:09:44
plans hit a snag a big snag Fen had had Revelation in the temple from God that she needed to put
00:09:56
her family back together for the children's sake God now was telling faen to marry Doug all over
00:10:05
again Doug claims nobody was more surprised than he was but the divorce hadn't been his idea after all and he
00:10:13
says he wanted to believe I knew I had to give it a shot you certainly did a 180 on this
00:10:22
didn't you you ended up not only marrying again but marrying the person that you had divorced I have the chance
00:10:30
to be able to try to make things right and get back with her absolutely to celebrate their new
00:10:38
beginning the grants vacationed here in the typog National Park in Utah and Doug
00:10:44
says they were hiking on September 24th 2001 according to him when faen reached roughly this spot she had some sort of
00:10:53
vision she saw something off in the distance so what did she do incredibly she climbed over this rock wall down to
00:11:01
that tiny ledge to get a better view according to Doug this picture was taken just seconds before disaster
00:11:11
struck she looked up and she could kind of see the image of Jesus in the clouds and said come out
00:11:18
here so I start going over that wall to go out there and she fell it was a 60t drop
00:11:29
Doug Grant says he was sure his wife was dead I yelled I screamed and she said shut up I mean
00:11:38
that was her exact word shut up so you knew she was okay I knew she was alive Doug took failen to a nearby
00:11:48
hospital very banged up but alive given how far she supposedly fell that makes no sense at all to Chief
00:11:57
Ranger Michael gosi the height of that fall the jaggedness of the Rocks below a fall of that serious nature a person
00:12:06
would have some severe injuries from she definitely thought she was going to die young but it was an
00:12:14
accident it was an accident but as Doug's sister Tammy was about to discover it may have been no
00:12:23
accident at all you have no idea that you're going to find what you find [Music]
00:12:44
no I got a phone call from Doug from the hospital and he told me that fine had fallen when she heard about fen's close
00:12:54
call in Utah Tammy Fuentes immediately went to the Grant's home to get it ready for their return you have no idea that
00:13:03
you're going to find what you find no she got the shock of her life she had prepared her house as if she was not
00:13:11
coming home Tammy says faen had left notes of Mormon scripture everywhere plus bags of personal items clothing
00:13:20
pictures with instructions to give them all away Fine's fall now made perfect sense to her she thought that she was
00:13:29
going to die on that mountain she tried to kill herself I know she did and I knew then that I
00:13:35
wanted to confront faen about it and I was going to confront her about it but when faen came home two days
00:13:44
later it didn't seem like the time fine was real sore she had been injured you know in the fall she was hurt she was
00:13:53
hurting pretty bad Doug had asked his friend physician's assistant Chad White to examine failen at home she seemed
00:14:01
happy to me regardless of all of her injuries she had no broken bones but still she was in pain and couldn't sleep
00:14:09
so white prescribed a muscle relaxant and the sleep aid ambian recording in his notes that he specifically told Doug
00:14:18
not to fill the ambient prescription without calling him first I just simply didn't want her taking the two together
00:14:26
white next heard from Doug just after 7:30 the following morning he was very alarmed very panicked he told me that he
00:14:34
had gone in to take a bath that he was laying on the bed and had fallen asleep when he woke up Doug said he found phine
00:14:42
unconscious in the tub her head underwater what did you do when you found her cut her
00:14:51
out put her on the bed started CPR you knew CPR I know CP you I asked if he' called 911 what did
00:15:03
he say he informed me that he had not called 911 I asked him why and he he relayed to me he was afraid white jumped
00:15:10
in the car and called 911 himself emergency yes I just got a discr call from um a friend of mine meanwhile at
00:15:19
the house phen's daughter Jenna says her stepfather was freaking out I hear Doug
00:15:25
and he's screaming he's panting and he's having a hard time looks like he's bracing himself and then he told me to
00:15:31
take my little brothers to the next door she ran to the home of Andrea Rogers who
00:15:36
raced to the grants to see if she could help Doug came flying to the door so upset my whole body just reacted to the
00:15:44
terror in his eyes Chad White showed up minutes later and took over he had obviously pulled her from the tub and
00:15:52
she was laying there unresponsive she did not have any vital signs with Doug looking on white tried CPR until the
00:16:00
paramedics arrived he was crying he was balling he was yelling out please help her please help her the paramedics got
00:16:09
her heart going again and rushed her to the hospital where Jenna remembers a bizarre scene as my mom is laying in a
00:16:17
bed unconscious with tubes running through her nose in her arms Doug takes me out into the hallway and he tells me
00:16:25
if your mom wakes up she might say weird things Jenna says Doug seemed too eager
00:16:31
to accept the possibility that failen might not wake up do not tell me my mom is going to die but as she watched her
00:16:38
mother's heart rate on the monitor she knew faen wasn't coming back I kept looking at the screen and just kept
00:16:45
going down and down from 100 7550 and then I realized what was happening she was
00:16:57
dying soon doctors said brain activity had ceased and Doug authorized taking her off life support at 437 p.m. on
00:17:07
September 27th 2001 faen Grant was pronounced dead official cause drowning but Tess showed a whopping 50 mg of
00:17:18
ambient in her system clearly Doug had ignored Chad White's orders you didn't call him when you
00:17:26
chose to fill the prescription I didn't feel I needed to call to fill the prescription still investigators seemed
00:17:33
unconcerned in this bathroom and out here in fen's bedroom they shot just five photos in coming days they would fail to
00:17:45
interview key Witnesses they even lost evidence including the pill bottles then again they had ruled this death an
00:17:53
accident the very day failen was found phen's family was upset it took months of pressure from them before
00:18:03
police started taking a closer look at Doug Grant and that's when detective s Ray
00:18:12
got the case I felt there was a lot of unanswered questions so I primarily focused on just trying to answer some of
00:18:21
the real basic questions the first thing we looked at that helped us do that was
00:18:24
the phone records Ray found a slew of calls from the months before faen died between Doug's phones and Hillary
00:18:34
dtz prosecutor Juan Martinez says authorities became even more intrigued at reports that Doug and Hillary had met
00:18:41
in a park only hours after fen's death when he saw her he grabbed her around the hip area pulled her towards him and
00:18:51
said oh I miss these that scenario is chilling well it is chilling and it isn't a scenario it's something that
00:18:58
happened Hillary admitted meeting Doug in the park but she wasn't sure when and she adamantly denied any conversation
00:19:06
about her hips but nobody denies what happened a few weeks later we got married soon you got married really soon
00:19:13
absolutely in fact less than a month after fen's death Doug and Hillary became man and
00:19:21
wife I know how people feel about us getting married so quick I don't care what people
00:19:28
perceive about me I am who I am and that's my life Doug and Hillary had started a new life but s had no
00:19:38
intention of moving on I had a lot of concerns about the way he reported things happening just some real Common
00:19:44
Sense things that I felt just didn't quite fit in Chief among them Ray says he just couldn't get over that Doug
00:19:52
never had called 911 I know with every fiber of my being that I called them you called I call 911 Phoenix area records
00:20:01
show no such call still Ray didn't have enough for an arrest until the sudden appearance of a new witness a reluctant
00:20:10
witness I didn't want to get involved because I knew what was going to happen once my name hit the papers caught on
00:20:17
tape with a story about what doug Grant told him really happened the day Fen died it's the missing piece of evidence
00:20:26
that we're looking for [Music] after phen's death Jenna and her brother Austin went to live with their
00:20:40
biological father well Doug that good and his new wife Hillary settled into life with a blended
00:20:51
family four children from various marriages including a daughter of their own n tried to land your front flip NAA
00:21:00
there you go that's heaven spelled backwards oh look at that one despite such wholesome
00:21:09
appearances detective s remained convinced Doug Grant was a killer but nothing really jumped out and said this
00:21:17
is what happened she's right here failen sisters always suspected it was Doug he
00:21:24
didn't call 911 he didn't call 911 he married Hillary 3 weeks later 3 years passed then one day fen's
00:21:34
sister Shirlene called Ray with explosive news an old friend of Doug's was claiming Doug had confessed to
00:21:43
killing fine the friend's name was Jim molier he told me that she was ready to go to
00:21:54
heaven he said I put her in the bathtub until she was underwater but there was a problem with
00:22:04
Jim maier's story before he'd tell it to the cops he wanted money from fen's family and how
00:22:12
much money does he want he's asking for $10,000 $10,000 he's very clear that it's a loan
00:22:19
you buy this I have a hard time buying a lot of things that Jim said but at that
00:22:24
point we were obligated to see it through to see what this information is and see if there's any validity to
00:22:31
it so s r set Maier up he told Shirlene to arrange a meeting in a Walmart parking lot hi Jim hi how we doing with
00:22:42
hidden cameras rolling all right back there Jim yeah I'm fine when the money changed hands here you
00:22:50
go Ray moved in and told Maier he could charge him with extortion instead he got Maier to agree to help
00:23:01
get a confession out of Doug on tape the plan at that point is to bring Jim and have him confront Doug on this
00:23:10
information while wearing a wire Maier did just that later that day wired for sound got
00:23:18
a minute he met Doug and told him police were asking him questions they're threatening to arrest me because they
00:23:23
think I have information and he needed to know exactly what happened to filine I don't know what you want me to say I
00:23:31
believe his initial response was I did help her into the bathtub she fell asleep in the tub she had had so much of
00:23:39
those painkillers and stuff Doug admitted nothing directly but when molier tried to leave he kept
00:23:48
saying tell me what you're going to say what are you going to say saying how damaging it sounded if they have anybody
00:23:55
saids that Doug Grant put her in the tub and put her to sleep then it's over trying to get me to reward it if it was
00:24:01
me I would say yeah we were good friends and you're there to conso me and you don't remember it's been years ago it
00:24:07
was hardly a full confession end of story get out of my face but to S it was more than
00:24:14
enough so in the summer of 2005 police arrested Doug grant for the murder of his wife
00:24:23
failen Doug immediately made bail and soon returned home he is not guilty there was no
00:24:33
crime Doug's lawyer Mel McDonald says there's no evidence Doug even wanted faen to die just the opposite when you
00:24:42
look at Doug's efforts after her fall crying for help running to her rescue taking her to a hospital leaving her
00:24:50
alone with people that is hardly the evidence of a murder Doug had been here as far as detective s is concerned
00:24:58
though it was all part of an act their version of the story is just nonsense I think something happened to her while
00:25:05
they were here I don't know what so what do you do when there's no evidence let's
00:25:10
throw in the infidelity let's throw in the younger woman it's got nothing to do with the question of homicide but let's
00:25:17
just throw the dirt on the wall maybe it will stick what the defense wants to stick is
00:25:23
that faen Grant's death was not a murder but rather an accident or a suicide if you doubt it they say I can't
00:25:32
tell you how devastated I feel just listen to fen's own words from those astonishing journals I choosing to give
00:25:40
up the life I have Jenna still reads them today I can't tell you how devastated I
00:25:46
feel and that I'm suicidal and that I think of crazy things to do to myself it's right there in the writings
00:25:56
repeated references to her upcoming death I felt like I should just drive off a cliff and quit wasting space and
00:26:04
air on this planet but daughter Jenna can't seem to reconcile the words in those letters and
00:26:11
journals with the mother she knew she would have never committed suicide if you only read a small portion of
00:26:18
something taken out of context it's not going to be what the writer intended my mom didn't want to die she was a happy
00:26:25
lady she was a great mom a great wife I don't think that points to someone that's
00:26:33
suicidal and if the writing suggest otherwise she says it can only be because Doug planted the idea her
00:26:42
husband who obviously she trusted who she remarried is telling her she's going to die I never encouraged it nor did I
00:26:50
ever dream it nor did I ever say it just as hard to Fathom as fail's relationship with Hill
00:26:58
a rival whom you'd think she might hate far from it remarkably fa's journals show that the two became Fast Friends
00:27:07
fine she filled voids in my life at a time period where I needed it and she's part of this
00:27:17
family I'm so thankful Hillary is able to share her feelings with me and me with her I want so much for her to know
00:27:25
of my love and respect for her so much does she love her that fine names Hillary the perfect new wife for
00:27:34
Doug Grant this desire for you to be married immediately and to see you sitting together as husband and wife at
00:27:41
my funeral has been so strong and even the perfect new mother for her children I have asked Hillary to sit at the table
00:27:49
as your mother while I'm away treat Hillary with the utmost love and respect and you'll always make me very happy
00:27:59
I think fine was right these kids needed a mom so just what was fine really saying
00:28:08
what do these bewildering entries tell us about her about how she died all rise for the jury as the trial begins how the
00:28:19
jury answers those questions May well determine Doug Grant's fate what role did you have in fail's death
00:28:29
everybody ask that is that a yes or a no [Music] sir all rise for the jury on day one of Doug Grant's trial
00:28:53
for first-degree murder please we SE everyone prosecutor Juan Martinez highlights what he says was Doug's
00:29:01
heartless manipulation of his wife he's telling her that he's had visions that she's going to die he will try to
00:29:09
convince the jury that Doug's obsessive Communications with Hillary then at 1213
00:29:14
a 16-minute call then at 1250 a 12 minute call and his failure to make the call that counted most doesn't call 911
00:29:23
reveal a plot to kill the woman he'd married twice so he could marry the woman he really loved he had told
00:29:31
Hillary that they were going to be together and that they were going to be married but defense lawyer Mel McDonald
00:29:40
argues however failen died Doug didn't kill her she writes I am choosing to give up the life I have that is
00:29:50
perfectly the way I want it she is choosing ladies and gentlemen to give up her life I can see under one theory that
00:30:01
Doug did just what Juan Martinez accused him of doing after years covering the grant case reporter Paul Rubin says no
00:30:09
one Theory fully explains what happened to failen I also can see it being a terrible tragic accident and I also can
00:30:17
see suicide but if this was murder what was the motive money well fine did have a hefty new life insurance policy but it
00:30:26
hadn't kicked in yet yet if Doug were after the money why wouldn't he wait as for love even if Doug desperately wanted
00:30:34
to marry Hillary he didn't have to kill philine to do it they could have simply divorced after all they'd already done
00:30:42
it once Mr Martinez's statement Call's first witness prosecutor Martinez ignores the
00:30:49
motive question for now beginning with his star witness fen's daughter Jenna who remembers being unable to get in
00:30:57
into the bedroom that horrible morning I grabbed the door handle jiggled it and it was locked the bedroom door was
00:31:05
locked says prosecutor Martinez because a killer was at work on the other side the locked door is a crucial point and
00:31:13
curiously something Jenna never once mentioned in two interviews with police I didn't want to talk about it I didn't
00:31:21
want to think about it but it's part of the story she was 11 at the time she was
00:31:26
the doesn't mean she doesn't remember exactly what happened step right up here and we have you I was definitely still
00:31:32
in love with d absolutely later Martinez tries to get Hillary to admit she knows
00:31:37
more than she's letting on you knew that if she died there would be a chance for
00:31:42
you and the man that you loved right Mr Martinez that is yes or no no your case certainly wasn't hurt by being able to
00:31:51
paint this guy as a really sleazy womanizer I didn't paint the defendant as a s lazy womanizer that's what the
00:31:59
facts showed exhibit a he says are the phone records hundreds of calls from Doug's
00:32:05
phones to Hillary's but Doug's lawyer claims that many of them weren't made by Doug at all it was fine that was making
00:32:13
the calls remember the defense says the two women were friends the contacts that
00:32:19
were going on during this period of time was fine preparing Hillary to take her place stay C our case mostly Doug's case
00:32:30
gets another boost when prosecutor Juan Martinez calls the medical examiner I have no evidence to support this being a
00:32:40
homicide just as the defense has claimed all along there was no crime also helping the defense raise your right
00:32:48
hand s Ray who spearheaded the case against Doug Grant has to admit that on many important points there's also no
00:32:56
evidence where's the sheets we do not have the sheets where were the pill containers found we don't know where's
00:33:03
our underclothing I don't know detective the evidence that the scene is gone isn't it no not not all of the evidence
00:33:11
that the scene is gone as for the ambient when how and how much faen took a toxicologist says the
00:33:19
evidence is totally inconclusive we just don't know as the months drag on and the
00:33:27
def picks up steam which is your home prosecutor Martinez voices objections objection non responsible over objection
00:33:35
leading speculative and over objection leading and here say and over objection leading sustain you objected by our
00:33:45
count more than a hundred times one day OB sustain non-leading questions please Mr McDonald I assume that's part of the
00:33:53
tactic no it was not a tactic to throw him off his game uhhuh 100 times in a day 200 if
00:34:00
necessary in closing arguments Martinez outdoes himself with another carefully calculated move finally spelling out
00:34:09
exactly what the state thinks Doug Grant did to failen it's a stunner what he did
00:34:15
is he dragged her over there and then he placed her head inside the tub and began
00:34:21
to hold her down failen never was actually in the bathtub he says her injuries and water
00:34:29
stains at the scene prove it there is no doubt that Douglas Grant killed failing
00:34:35
Grant but just in case the jurors don't buy that Martinez reminds them they still can punish Doug without convicting
00:34:43
him of first-degree murder there are lesser included offenses second degree murder and mansl Doug Grant doesn't
00:34:51
testify and his lawyer bids the jury a fond if unorthodox farewell thank you so much for your
00:35:00
commitment and your time and may God bless you this been a priv God bless you it's not
00:35:07
panding I will be devastated if this is not an aquid and he is not the only one every
00:35:16
time the phone rings you know wondering if it's the last time you're going to see your family you know on person and
00:35:22
uh it's real tough this is our life and I believe with every fiber my being Doug will
00:35:27
continue it with us this is a case that took on a life of its own it's an unlikely arrest followed by an unlikely
00:35:35
prosecution followed by we'll see while the jury is out Doug Grant retreats to his home in Pima Arizona
00:35:52
there's only a few things that keep you Saye you know out doing yard work with the family brings a a little bit of
00:35:57
normaly to life savoring whatever time he has left with Hillary and his kids oh look at that one the thought of Doug
00:36:06
being taken away and having to go to jail for something that he didn't do is crippling I don't wish that upon
00:36:17
anybody faced with months of evidence jury deliberations drag on for three agonizing weeks while we're waiting it's
00:36:26
it's tough you just don't know where they're going to go with it very few people could go through what he's had to
00:36:33
go through okay come here Brave it's tough from 9: to 4 while the jury's deliberating pins and needles you
00:36:40
know and then finally a verdict verdict we the jury do find the defendant Douglas D Grant as to
00:36:52
count one first-degree murder unable to to agree on the Lesser included offense of
00:37:01
second degree murder unable to agree on the Lesser included offense of manslaughter
00:37:12
guilty guilty but only of manslaughter the least serious charge Doug faced Doug Grant was taken out of the courtroom in
00:37:21
handcuffs it's a hollow victory for the state and for fen's family I'm glad it's
00:37:27
over and that we can go on a crushing blow for Doug and the defense probably the most devastating result in any case
00:37:36
I've ever tried jurors say though they thought Doug did something they just couldn't
00:37:41
agree that it was murder nothing was proven but it was just a gut feeling so they compromised manslaughter was a
00:37:49
fallback despite their strong feelings about the man on trial we thought he was a pretty much a SK bag how have you
00:37:57
managed to hold it together all this time Hillary it's easy when you know he's innocent Doug supporters aren't giving
00:38:05
up manslaughter means he could face up to 12 and A2 years in prison or he could get no time at all just probation
00:38:14
there's a community that will suffer a great loss if he is in for very long at all because he is a good
00:38:20
[Music] man it may have been too risky to put grant on the stand before the verdict
00:38:28
but as the court considers sentencing a few days later we call that Grant Doug's
00:38:33
lawyer bets that an emotional plea from his client now just might work would you
00:38:38
please state your name for the record Doug V Dewey Grant and Doug is on the edge after his first weekend Behind Bars
00:38:46
he's on suicide watch he look like Jack Nicholson in The Shining was yelling fine
00:38:54
fine he did cry well it looked like he attempted to cry does he turn the tears on and off it
00:39:01
appears that he does doesn't it filine was someone that always made me feel Larger than
00:39:09
Life phen's family takes the stand to argue for the longest sentence possible all that I have left is
00:39:18
memories because he took her from me the usually stoic Hillary now pleads with the judge not to to take Doug from
00:39:27
her if Doug received probation he would still be allowed to pay a debt to society and continue to provide for us
00:39:34
as his family Doug and fen's own Sons Marley 12 I'm here because I know my dad is in it I want my dad back home and
00:39:44
Braven 11 I miss my mom tell the judge that losing one parent is enough but taking my dad away isn't going to bring
00:39:54
her back the seem to hit home a judgment sentence of the court to defend and be in prison for
00:40:02
the presumptive term of 5 years 5 years with good behavior Doug Grant will be out in three the
00:40:09
prosecutor puts on a brave face Justice I believe was served it took a while but we finally got there
00:40:17
where do you go from here what do you do on with my family Hillary is loyal to the end
00:40:23
saying it's just what her dear friend would have wanted they're always going to mourn the death of their mother
00:40:30
always this is what she would want I mean that's just how I feel Jenna has trouble accepting the
00:40:39
verdict let alone the sentence a man took away someone else's life and he's going to be in prison half a
00:40:48
decade you're telling me that's justice but she vows not to let the past destroy her future
00:40:56
I'm going to be okay I've been okay the past seven or eight years and she takes comfort in fen's journals this will be
00:41:04
such a blessing as I go into the next World in those haunting Reflections not just about dying but also about living
00:41:13
life with zest every day which is how she wants to remember her mother love means never having to say
00:41:22
goodbye I will be with you always I love you failing [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
