And I want to start with Dave's first interview with police. Because it's really strange. When a
00:00:07
detective calls Dave the day that Laura was found, he tells Dave that Laura is part of an investigation and asks if
00:00:15
Dave is able to pick their kids up from school. A part of an investigation? Like
00:00:20
they don't tell him that Laura is dead? >> [music] >> Dave asks what's wrong, but they say
00:00:25
that they can't explain it over the phone. So, they agree to meet Dave at his house. Here's where it gets
00:00:30
interesting. So, according to the police file, when Dave greets the detective outside of his house, he's already
00:00:38
crying. Even though they haven't told him what happened. Exactly. Did Stacy tell him?
00:00:45
No, the detective immediately clocks this as odd. So, he specifically asks if Dave spoke to anyone,
00:00:53
and he says, "No." So, why is he crying? File doesn't say. But when the detective finally does tell
00:01:02
Dave that Laura died, he just like doubles over and starts sobbing uncontrollably, which the
00:01:09
detective says [music] continues for the duration of their conversation. And they speak about Laura's medical
00:01:16
history, the order of protection, the divorce, [music] the domestic violence call, and even his affair.
00:01:22
But Dave maintains that he had no idea where Laura lived or what her life was like after they separated. From what I
00:01:31
can see, the last time he tells them that he saw Laura was at their son's baseball game back in October.
00:01:37
And for all the things they do talk about, nowhere in the summary do I see the detective asking Dave any accusatory
00:01:45
questions or even anything about where he was the night before. So, we don't know if he had an alibi or not. Not
00:01:52
explicitly, no. But what makes the Dave scenario tricky is that his three sons were with him all weekend.
