A lack of evidence isn't stopping investigators, though, because they've set their sights on a confession from
00:00:05
Byron. >> But that's the only thing they're going to be able to get. Like they they have
00:00:09
literally nothing else. So, detectives tap Kelly's phone lines hoping she can get Byron on the phone. And eventually
00:00:15
on June 5th, 2001, Byron picks up. And we're going to play a snippet of their conversation that we got from Leah. And
00:00:22
fair warning, it's not great quality. And on top of that, Byron sounds kind of muffled, but here it is. Why? Seriously,
00:00:31
why did you have to kill her? What was the whole big deal? Could you explain that to me?
00:00:37
Because I don't get it. Seriously, Justin said for no reason. She's dead for no reason. They're still selfdep.
00:00:46
And for some reason, they're talking to me because you won't talk. So I'm and it
00:00:52
makes me look horrible because everybody already knows that I'm a crackhead that
00:00:57
I'm a cokehead that I'm an alcoholic and I don't remember and if I try to talk to them nothing's
00:01:03
going to add up. So I mean if you could seriously explain to me as to why you actually felt the need to kill her then
00:01:09
that would really help me feel better about the whole thing. I mean was there seriously any reason to all of this
00:01:17
talk about it? Why? >> I think we should.
