And what she told us was brand new information to us and to investigators when we passed it along to them. We did
00:00:08
get in touch with John's daughter, Kim. She was 16 back in 1997. She didn't live
00:00:14
in Indie. She actually lived in Texas with her mother, but by some stroke of cold case luck, she was visiting
00:00:22
Indianapolis to see her dad that Fourth of July weekend. She told us that her dad was actually planning to introduce
00:00:28
her to Bonnie at an outdoor concert on the 4th called Uncle Sam Jam. I guess the concert had one of her favorite
00:00:34
bands, the Bare Naked Ladies. We actually checked this. The concert did [music] happen that weekend, so she is
00:00:38
spot on. And she said that her dad hadn't introduced her to other women and so she took this as him. This was big.
00:00:45
>> Yeah, this was like he's like very smitten with her. She knew. But she says that Friday, Bonnie never showed up and
00:00:52
she remembered her dad getting really worried and him saying that this wasn't like her. She said it pretty much ruined
00:00:58
the entire day because he seems so worried about it. Wait, I thought John gets told that she's missing on Saturday
00:01:07
by Anita. >> That is what John told police. Yeah, >> but his daughter is saying that he knew
00:01:13
something was wrong on Friday. Yes. But the thing that I can't wrap my head around is in that scenario though, why
00:01:22
not tell police that you were supposed to meet her on Friday and she didn't show up?
00:01:27
>> Yeah, that feels like a kind of a big piece of like the timeline puzzle, right? When we told Sergeant Kissner
00:01:32
about this, he said he had never heard anything about Bonnie not showing up to meet Jon at the concert on Friday.
