This episode of Unsolved Mysteries covers three main cases: the murder of Mark Grozinger, the psychic abilities of George Anderson, and the Atlanta bombing incidents.

The first segment focuses on the murder of Mark Grozinger, a 29-year-old concrete cutter found shot in his car near Denver, Colorado. His wife, Judy Gringer, becomes the prime suspect after inconsistencies in her alibi emerge. Investigators find a gun purchased by Judy shortly before Mark's death, leading to questions about her involvement.

The second segment features George Anderson, who claims to communicate with the dead. He conducts readings for individuals grieving lost loved ones, including Joel Martin, who is astonished by the specific details Anderson reveals about his deceased wife. Anderson's abilities are tested scientifically, showing unusual brain activity during his readings.

The final segment discusses a series of bombings in Atlanta during the 1996 Summer Olympics. The attacks, which targeted a clinic and a gay nightclub, were linked to Eric Rudolph, who was later identified as the bomber. The investigation reveals his motives and the chaos that ensued from the bombings.

Throughout the episode, viewers are encouraged to help solve these cases, highlighting the role of public involvement in criminal investigations.

TL;DR

Mark Grozinger's murder, George Anderson's psychic claims, and Atlanta bombings are featured in this episode.

[Music]
00:01:56
bullets the dead man was Mark grozinger
00:01:59
a 29-year-old concrete cutter from the
00:02:02
nearby town of golden Mark had no known
00:02:05
enemies when inconsistencies turned up
00:02:08
during the murder investigation his wife
00:02:11
became the prime
00:02:15
suspect I don't think anyone disliked
00:02:17
him he was a very nice guy he'd help you
00:02:19
do anything and he was kind of
00:02:22
shy for a friend you know he was a real
00:02:25
good friend to
00:02:27
people there were few Clues found at the
00:02:30
crime scam it appeared that Mark had
00:02:33
been shot from the passenger side of the
00:02:35
car that bag off a paper bag filled with
00:02:39
38 caliber bullets was found on the
00:02:42
right front
00:02:43
floorboard we also have empty shell
00:02:46
casings here in the front seat there
00:02:48
were casings inside and outside of the
00:02:51
car enough to indicate that the gun had
00:02:54
been reloaded at least twice during the
00:02:57
shooting there were also other
00:03:00
intriguing Clues we recovered the wallet
00:03:03
the driver's license with money that he
00:03:05
had in the wallet so we basically ruled
00:03:07
out a robbery but the thing that really
00:03:10
was strange is the car keys were missing
00:03:12
and if there was a robbery they would
00:03:14
have taken the wallet left the caras to
00:03:17
investigators Mark's murder appeared to
00:03:19
be a crime of
00:03:27
passion we taking in consideration the
00:03:29
number of bullets that were fired into
00:03:32
Mark's
00:03:34
Body it's clear to us
00:03:38
that this is a killing of of Rage of
00:03:42
Fury of hate
00:03:47
Revenge Judy why don't you uh tell us
00:03:49
about Mark's activities on that last
00:03:51
Friday night investigators questioned
00:03:53
Mark's wife Judy she had already
00:03:56
reported him missing when we got
00:03:58
finished he said he felt like going out
00:04:00
to play some pool I said I didn't really
00:04:01
want to go I didn't feel like it Judy
00:04:03
said that on the night Mark was killed
00:04:06
they had eaten dinner at a local
00:04:07
restaurant with a friend Judy wasn't
00:04:10
feeling well it's early so why don't we
00:04:12
go ahead and go out and shoot some pole
00:04:14
i' rather not I just didn't get home
00:04:16
I'll go bath with you Judy said Mark
00:04:18
took her home around 8:00 her friend
00:04:21
decided to keep her
00:04:23
company we left uh he stopped at a
00:04:25
liquor store picked up a bottle of
00:04:27
whiskey and dropped us off in front of
00:04:28
the house and took off and what time did
00:04:31
Mark drop you off there seem to be
00:04:32
several discrepancies in Judy gringer
00:04:37
story okay I'll see yall later Judy
00:04:41
indicated that they went back to their
00:04:43
residence approximately 8:00 and then
00:04:46
Mark left to shoot pool but we contacted
00:04:50
people that were going up to the shrine
00:04:52
to a wedding rehearsal that evening they
00:04:55
told us that they observed Mark's Car
00:04:57
there uh by the gate at 8:00 p.m. so we
00:05:00
had a problem there with that
00:05:02
story detectives didn't find a gun at
00:05:04
the crime scene that matched the 38
00:05:07
caliber
00:05:08
shells when they ran a check of all the
00:05:11
38 caliber guns recently purchased in
00:05:14
the Denver area they recognized one name
00:05:18
Judy gringer she had purchased a weapon
00:05:22
in Denver at a pawn shop 3 days prior to
00:05:25
Mark's death and we asked her why she
00:05:28
didn't tell us this initially she said
00:05:29
said she forgot Mark came home one day
00:05:32
and he asked me if I could go to the
00:05:34
pawn shop the next day and buy a gun for
00:05:37
um somebody and I asked him why the
00:05:39
person didn't buy it theirselves he said
00:05:42
they were just a little underage or
00:05:44
something of that sort so I went down to
00:05:47
Denver and I looked around and picked
00:05:50
out the kind of G he wanted a
00:05:52
38 this is good I'll take it you working
00:05:55
here last week detectives checked out
00:05:56
her
00:05:57
story on April 3rd this woman came in
00:06:00
here to buy a gun you recognize her or
00:06:02
the guy she's with I recognize the lady
00:06:05
I don't recognize the gentleman she was
00:06:07
with the man
00:06:09
though she was yes can you describe him
00:06:12
to me uh biker guy long hair he was
00:06:16
wearing a cap the Proprietors of the
00:06:18
pawn shop were very adamant about the
00:06:21
fact that there was a man with Judy
00:06:23
gringer in that pawn shop that
00:06:25
day here's a nice while she was picking
00:06:27
out this gun uh she called this male
00:06:31
subject over to her and said where's the
00:06:34
effect of what about this one do you
00:06:36
like this one those type of
00:06:40
words detectives found another major
00:06:43
discrepancy in Judy gringer's account
00:06:47
part of Judy's Story was that after she
00:06:50
and Mark had finished dinner they drove
00:06:52
to a liquor store near their residence
00:06:53
to buy a bottle of whiskey detectives
00:06:56
again checked out gringer story we
00:06:59
investigator from the Jefferson County
00:07:00
Sheriff's Department do you know the
00:07:02
people in this picture yes I do that's
00:07:05
Mark and JY gringer the lady says I know
00:07:07
Mark personally and I know Judy and no
00:07:10
Mark did not come in by whiskey that
00:07:12
particular night I did not see Mark come
00:07:14
in here I did see Judy and some guy
00:07:17
though a couple days ago a guy here in
00:07:19
the store yeah why don't you describe
00:07:21
this guy to me well he was tall and
00:07:23
darkhaired biker
00:07:27
looking that person told us Judy came
00:07:29
into the liquor store at a later time
00:07:31
with another man matching the
00:07:33
description of the man that Judy was
00:07:35
with at the pawn
00:07:36
shop so we have two locations where Judy
00:07:40
was seen with the same unidentified
00:07:45
man in Mark's Car investigators found a
00:07:48
six-pack of beer but the receipt showed
00:07:51
that it was purchased from a different
00:07:57
store Judy gringer's finger Prince were
00:08:00
on one of the bottles of beer a
00:08:04
beer now is that when you went home or
00:08:07
is that the time you left the restaurant
00:08:08
investigators brought in the only person
00:08:10
who could verify Judy's Alibi the friend
00:08:14
who had stayed with her after Mark
00:08:15
dropped her off at
00:08:17
home she said that she had watched TV
00:08:20
with Judy until around midnight and then
00:08:23
slept over on the
00:08:25
couch we interviewed friends and
00:08:27
acquaintances and more than one aaint
00:08:30
said that the relationship was more than
00:08:32
just
00:08:36
friends the day after Mark's murder
00:08:39
Judy's friend moved in with her after
00:08:42
living together for a few years they
00:08:44
bought a
00:08:45
house well anytime you have a good
00:08:47
friend people start rumoring but that's
00:08:50
not true sure we're close friends but
00:08:53
not in that
00:08:55
way especially in a way you're going to
00:08:57
take spy out and kill them because
00:09:00
what would we have gained by
00:09:02
it there was no reason for me to do
00:09:05
that we have no concrete evidence to
00:09:08
place her there that night in that car
00:09:10
all we have circumstantial evidence that
00:09:13
indicates that she may be deceitful
00:09:16
statements we just don't
00:09:18
know Judy why don't you Judy gringer
00:09:20
maintains her
00:09:22
innocence she even took a lie detector
00:09:25
test which supported her
00:09:27
story but the discrepancy remain and
00:09:30
Judy gringer is still considered a
00:09:32
person of
00:09:36
interest all that is known for certain
00:09:38
is that at the moment Mark killer is a
00:09:42
free man or
00:09:47
woman next this man claims to have
00:09:50
psychic abilities can he really
00:09:54
communicate with the dead got to
00:09:58
forgive
00:10:05
the man you're about to meet George
00:10:07
Anderson seems to have an uncanny
00:10:09
ability to communicate with spirits of
00:10:12
the Dead I know you may be skeptical but
00:10:16
after seeing Anderson in action you
00:10:18
might just change your
00:10:23
mind at times it does seem even for me
00:10:26
that I am literally listening to them or
00:10:29
listening to a conversation or feeling
00:10:31
I'm listening I don't want people to get
00:10:32
the impression it's all like I'm hearing
00:10:34
clearly as I'm hearing you right now
00:10:36
it's a feeling that you're seeing a
00:10:38
feeling that you're hearing a sensation
00:10:40
more it's like getting an electrical
00:10:42
charge all through yourself I was
00:10:44
hosting a popular late night radio talk
00:10:46
show we uh dealt heavily with
00:10:48
unexplained phenomena when Joel Martin
00:10:51
first heard of George Anderson he had
00:10:53
his doubt than that just we'll let the
00:10:54
spirits do the work Joel Martin called
00:10:57
George Anderson in for a re
00:11:00
they had never met before George says he
00:11:03
knew nothing about Martin's background
00:11:06
when George conducts readings he
00:11:08
sometimes makes random marks on a pad to
00:11:11
help with his concentration the full
00:11:13
name father vibration uh no Father
00:11:17
Figure and he started to talk about
00:11:20
Shirley my late wife who had been killed
00:11:22
the year
00:11:23
before she was hit and killed by a car
00:11:26
crossing a street in New York surely
00:11:29
surley does that name mean something to
00:11:32
you she says you know her uh she's
00:11:37
recently passed on suddenly uh she
00:11:41
points to her face and to her head uh
00:11:43
pain uh maybe something happened that uh
00:11:46
I'm feeling the pain is coming through
00:11:48
me I'm feeling pain in the head in the
00:11:50
face um maybe a car accident uh how how
00:11:54
do you know that well she's standing
00:11:56
right behind you no no you you can't see
00:11:59
her only I can see her she's a spirit
00:12:02
she's she's right there then he did
00:12:04
something that could not be explained by
00:12:06
any any way that I could reason daughter
00:12:08
you need she she's pointing her finger
00:12:09
she's she's waving it back and forth
00:12:12
very quickly very whenever she was
00:12:14
annoyed me she would say you're like a
00:12:16
little boy you're just like a little but
00:12:17
that was only a private thing that she
00:12:19
and I knew nobody would have known that
00:12:22
so now I'm figuring how the heck I could
00:12:24
not have told that to anybody there's no
00:12:26
way he could have known this or or
00:12:28
should have known it that's a very
00:12:29
private thing also there another male
00:12:32
you was a male friend Joel persuaded
00:12:34
George Anderson to undergo tests at a
00:12:37
New York City Hospital according to Joel
00:12:40
George's EEG was extremely
00:12:43
unusual while George conducted a session
00:12:46
with an off-screen subject half of his
00:12:49
brain registered sleep while the other
00:12:52
half showed normal waking patterns the
00:12:54
neurologist who conducted those tests he
00:12:57
said he had never seen anything like it
00:12:58
before and is it what we expect to see
00:13:00
no is it what's supposed to happen no is
00:13:03
something unusual going on
00:13:06
yes George Anderson has come to accept
00:13:09
his unusual ability he says that it
00:13:12
began when he was just 6 years old after
00:13:16
a severe case of chickenpox suddenly he
00:13:19
could hear voices and see visions of
00:13:21
people who had recently passed
00:13:25
away Barbara and John lotta contacted
00:13:28
George Anderson
00:13:29
4 months after the death of their
00:13:32
16-year-old son David David had gone out
00:13:36
to a
00:13:37
party he had a be in by
00:13:40
12:30 I went to bed but I laid there
00:13:43
awake cuz I don't sleep until my kids
00:13:46
are
00:13:47
in and at 1:30 I got up because it was
00:13:52
unlike David not to
00:13:56
call
00:13:58
again
00:14:01
David Mr Lata yes this is
00:14:06
Lata and need talked to you about your
00:14:09
son and then I
00:14:11
knew it was
00:14:14
um a night of
00:14:18
Hell David had been killed by a hidden
00:14:21
run
00:14:23
driver Barbara fell into a deep
00:14:25
depression over David's
00:14:28
death at Barbara's request her husband
00:14:31
agreed to a session with George
00:14:33
[Music]
00:14:35
Anderson Anderson claims that with the
00:14:38
lcadas as with all his clients he had no
00:14:41
prior information about the family he
00:14:44
only knew they were in
00:14:46
morning have you recently lost a
00:14:49
son
00:14:51
yes um some sort of accident he's
00:14:54
telling me it's very confusing because
00:14:57
he's very restless was he very emotional
00:14:59
yes very emotional cuz she's talking a
00:15:02
mile a minute I can recall their son
00:15:05
David coming through very strongly very
00:15:09
high-spirited personality no pun
00:15:10
intended and uh also very anxious to
00:15:15
reach out to his parents to give them
00:15:16
and his family the assurance that he was
00:15:18
all right there were a lot of things
00:15:20
very specific pieces of
00:15:23
information that came forth in this
00:15:25
reading that there was no way that
00:15:28
George could have no so 16 was he about
00:15:31
16 yeah he was 16 he's saying forgive
00:15:36
got to forgive um if he can forgive
00:15:39
everybody else should be able to forgive
00:15:41
because he's the one over there I felt
00:15:44
this
00:15:45
enormous
00:15:47
relief when we made contact with David
00:15:50
through
00:15:51
George because I felt
00:15:54
like you arrived you're in the other
00:15:57
world you're still alive and I will see
00:15:59
you
00:16:00
again 6 years after David Lata died
00:16:04
17-year-old David Elliott was killed in
00:16:07
a snow skiing
00:16:08
accident the deaths of the two boys
00:16:11
became oddly connected when David
00:16:14
Elliot's Father John bought a book about
00:16:16
George Anderson called we don't die the
00:16:20
book dealt with the case of David
00:16:23
Lata John says that at the time he was
00:16:26
reading it he dreamed that he he had a
00:16:29
session with George Anderson the dream
00:16:32
seemed so real that I decided I ought to
00:16:35
pursue the reading with George my
00:16:38
background is in science and engineering
00:16:40
I need the hard facts and so I wanted a
00:16:44
number of things out of any Vis any trip
00:16:46
to George to convince myself that he was
00:16:49
doing something like what's claimed in
00:16:51
his
00:16:53
book next George Anderson's psychic
00:16:57
powers are put to the
00:17:08
session shortly after 17-year-old David
00:17:11
Elliot was killed in a skiing accident
00:17:14
his father John decided to attend a
00:17:17
reading with psychic George Anderson who
00:17:20
claims that he can communicate with the
00:17:23
dead water so just exercise two of his
00:17:26
other Sons Mark and Jack were with him
00:17:29
John Elliot claims that Anderson had no
00:17:31
idea who they were or that they were his
00:17:35
sons and I decided I would sit back and
00:17:38
be the skeptic and give him no
00:17:39
information you prove it to
00:17:41
me the man in the
00:17:44
back uh you've had a son pass
00:17:48

00:19:53
was amazed and I came away without being
00:19:56
able to doubt him
00:20:00
I definitely have changed my attitude
00:20:02
towards a life after this over the years
00:20:06
I've learned to accept and believe that
00:20:08
David as well as all the rest of my
00:20:10
relatives are with us all the
00:20:14
time John Elliot was convinced that
00:20:17
George Anderson had actually
00:20:19
communicated with his dead son but could
00:20:22
Anderson demonstrate his abilities with
00:20:25
cameras rolling at our request George
00:20:27
Anderson agreed to conduct a session
00:20:30
with our cameras
00:20:33
present Barry Silverman died at the age
00:20:36
of 33 a victim of lung
00:20:40
cancer Barry's parents and his sister
00:20:43
Joy agreed to participate in the session
00:20:46
Anderson knew nothing about the family
00:20:49
or how Barry had passed away he said
00:20:51
before you had something to do with
00:20:53
health well there's definitely two male
00:20:55
presences around you and I'm sure
00:20:57
there's two males close to you passed on
00:20:58
someplace so don't say anything let me
00:20:59
just go with
00:21:03
it someone also claims to be your dad
00:21:05
your dad passed also yes cuz somebody's
00:21:07
on your behind
00:21:09
you does your your father have a good
00:21:12
sense of humor cuz he joked he said um
00:21:16
he doesn't want you to feel left out he
00:21:18
claims your boy is with
00:21:22
him so you obviously must have lost a
00:21:24
son because he keeps saying your boy is
00:21:26
with me and I'm sure he passed on as a
00:21:28
young adult but he's still your son he's
00:21:30
still your
00:21:33
boy I hear the name Barry um does the
00:21:37
name Barry mean anything to you that's
00:21:39
us son Barry says the message that I
00:21:42
just gave you come this is how you'll
00:21:43
know it's for real that it comes from
00:21:49
Barry why do I feel as if I lose my air
00:21:51
does that make sense yes the injury I
00:21:53
feel is in here and he said you lose
00:21:56
your I'm losing my air so there's like
00:21:59
pressure in my chest as if I'm injured
00:22:01
in the chest but I'm obviously feeling
00:22:03
whatever the circumstances
00:22:08
are very sensitive warm guy he sends his
00:22:11
love to the three of
00:22:13
you because he says to you specifically
00:22:15
now when you leave it's like he's giving
00:22:17
orders says when you leave here you
00:22:19
leave here with peace he says you didn't
00:22:21
fail me and he says now you stop feeling
00:22:23
guilty and he says you let that go and
00:22:25
put your heart at rest he says because
00:22:27
he's all right he's at peace and with
00:22:30
that he withdraws with the others pray
00:22:32
for us until we meet again and there
00:22:34
they
00:22:35
go okay you can relax the way they
00:22:38
went I feel a lot better I really do I
00:22:41
feel that Barry's really with us and and
00:22:43
you know we'll be together someday and
00:22:46
uh you know don't that doubt is you know
00:22:50
human beings are funny I guess you never
00:22:52
get rid of it completely but I feel much
00:22:55
more convinced and I do believe he spoke
00:22:58
with George Anderson and there's so many
00:23:02
things that he has told us that were so
00:23:05
true that I I feel so much better I I
00:23:08
feel very relieved there are the times
00:23:11
where you know something is happening
00:23:13
that you cannot explain plus when you
00:23:15
see the effect it has on the people in a
00:23:18
positive way where it helps them I guess
00:23:21
it's my job to mind my own business and
00:23:23
stay out of it and just continue to be
00:23:25
the instrument and let the person
00:23:27
receive what comfort comes from it and
00:23:30
that's what I try to
00:23:34
do coming up a series of bombings
00:23:37
terrorize
00:23:38
Atlanta will the bomber be arrested
00:23:41
before striking
00:23:52
again Atlanta
00:23:55
Georgia the 1996 Summer of
00:24:04
Olympics a clinic in Suburban
00:24:13
Atlanta a gay and lesbian nightclub in
00:24:16
midtown Atlanta three seemingly
00:24:19
unrelated bombings that authorities
00:24:22
believe have a common
00:24:24
link could the same man be behind each
00:24:28
of
00:24:29
attack investigators began piecing
00:24:32
together forensic from the explosions
00:24:35
they soon discovered that the bombings
00:24:37
were length but they were puzzled by the
00:24:39
random nature of the targets and the
00:24:45
[Music]
00:24:46
motive Fallon stubs and her mother Alice
00:24:49
Hawthorne were visiting from Albany
00:24:51
Georgia the last minute trip was a 14th
00:24:54
birthday gift for Fallon we enjoying a
00:24:58
moment and join the people it was
00:25:01
experience like no other and you know
00:25:03
from to be in that kind of surroundings
00:25:06
it was a beautiful thing
00:25:09
get Fallon and her mother stopped to
00:25:12
take a picture one 2
00:25:22
3 the huge explosion knocked Fallon and
00:25:25
her mother to the
00:25:27
ground
00:25:28
after the explosion it was it was
00:25:32
chaos you never forget that moment
00:25:35
afterwards and I ran towards anybody who
00:25:39
could help help me please help me hold
00:25:41
on hold on hold on hold and I was like
00:25:43
my mother my mother somebody's got to
00:25:45
help my
00:25:46
mother 44-year-old Alice Hawthorne was
00:25:50
killed instantly by flying shrap nut
00:25:54
hundreds of others were
00:25:56
injured a task force of federal and
00:25:59
state investigators was quickly formed
00:26:02
to find a terrorist behind this vicious
00:26:06
attack over the next 7 months two more
00:26:12
bombings but an even more disturbing
00:26:15
Trend had
00:26:17
developed the bomber was now planting a
00:26:19
second device apparently designed to
00:26:22
harm police and rescue workers who
00:26:25
responded to the first explosion we're
00:26:27
building a good prosecutable court case
00:26:30
based upon the forensic evidence we had
00:26:32
where we could tie the bombs together
00:26:34
but we still didn't know the identity of
00:26:36
the bomber we didn't know who he
00:26:38
was after the third incident authorities
00:26:41
received letters from the so-called Army
00:26:43
of God claiming responsibility for the
00:26:46
last two
00:26:48
bombings in the letters he got into the
00:26:50
components of the bomb which had not
00:26:52
been made public at that time so we knew
00:26:54
the letters were written by the
00:26:56
bomber those who participate in any way
00:26:59
in the murder of children may be
00:27:00
targeted for attack we will Target
00:27:02
sodomites their organizations and all
00:27:05
those who push their agenda we will
00:27:07
Target all facilities and Personnel of
00:27:10
the federal
00:27:13
government an FBI profiler analyzed the
00:27:16
letters and the details of all three
00:27:18
bombings his conclusion the bomber's
00:27:21
real Target was law
00:27:27
enforcement Birmingham Alabama 11 months
00:27:30
after the third Atlanta
00:27:34
bombing Head Nurse Emily Lions came to
00:27:37
work early that day off-duty police
00:27:40
officer Robert Sanderson was working
00:27:43
there as a security
00:27:45
guard hey baby he how are you doing good
00:27:48
we met on the sidewalk in front of the
00:27:51
clinic and we taught for a
00:27:52
moment then they spotted something that
00:27:55
looked out of place there was an
00:27:58
overturn flower pot kind of buried a
00:28:01
little bit and that was not anything we
00:28:05
would have ever had so at that point
00:28:07
Sandy knew something was wrong why don't
00:28:09
you stand back let me check it okay all
00:28:27
right
00:28:32
the explosion instantly killed security
00:28:34
guard Robert Sanderson dozens of
00:28:37
masonary nails and screws tore through
00:28:40
90% of Emily Lion's body Emily lost her
00:28:44
left
00:28:47
eye Robert Sanderson had been a
00:28:49
Birmingham police officer for 8
00:28:52
years task force members believed that
00:28:55
the bomber had achieved his objective
00:28:58
to murder a law enforcement
00:29:01
officer forensics later revealed the
00:29:04
bomb was triggered by remote control and
00:29:07
that meant the bomber had been
00:29:12
there that increased his chances of
00:29:15
killing police officers but it also
00:29:17
directly increased his chances of being
00:29:19
identified and
00:29:20
C police questioned a witness who saw a
00:29:23
man walking away from the scene just
00:29:26
after the explosion
00:29:28
[Music]
00:29:31
when the man removed the wig the witness
00:29:33
became suspicious and followed
00:29:37
[Music]
00:29:39
him the suspicious man got into a pickup
00:29:43
truck the witness gave the license plate
00:29:45
number to the
00:29:47
[Music]
00:29:48
police the gray Nissan truck was traced
00:29:51
to a man named Eric Rudolph from North
00:29:56
Carolina a warrant was issued for his
00:29:59
arrest FBI search for it come out with
00:30:02
your hands up an FBI SWAT team raided
00:30:06
Rudolph's trailer last one's clear the
00:30:09
air conditioner was still running and
00:30:10
food was still on the table
00:30:13
investigators believed they had missed
00:30:14
Rudolph by just minutes definitely been
00:30:17
here he told friends and Associates when
00:30:19
he was a teenager that if he got in
00:30:21
trouble with law enforcement he would
00:30:23
disappear into the mountains and we feel
00:30:25
that this is something that he was
00:30:26
planning for a long time
00:30:31
after Rudolph's truck was found AB
00:30:32
banded near a forest 250 Law Enforcement
00:30:36
Officers converged at the site but
00:30:39
Rudolph had
00:30:43
vanished he grew up in the woods he knew
00:30:47
the terrain much better than we did and
00:30:50
there are places that we knew very well
00:30:52
that we could have walked within 5T of
00:30:55
him and uh we would not have seen
00:30:59
Eric Rudolph had been raised in a family
00:31:02
that reportedly preached white
00:31:04
separatism and he had served in the US
00:31:08
Army he was an experienced Outdoorsman
00:31:11
and
00:31:13
survivalist I never really heard him
00:31:15
talk about positive things it was a lot
00:31:17
of hateful things a lot of negativity
00:31:20
you know about you know Authority and um
00:31:23
you know our gun laws and government and
00:31:26
politics
00:31:31
George Nordman was a health food store
00:31:34
owner who lived in a remote mountain
00:31:36
cabin he had known Rudolph for years
00:31:39
what the hell are you doing here I need
00:31:41
your help man appro about food stuff
00:31:45
George made the decision not to help
00:31:47
Eric and I believe became somewhat
00:31:49
frightened of
00:31:51
him a few nights later Norman's home was
00:31:54
raided several hundred lbs of food and
00:31:58
his truck were stolen it was believed
00:32:00
Rudolph had made a return
00:32:06
visit Eric Rudolph was not a joiner we
00:32:08
found no evidence that he ever was a
00:32:10
member of a militia he was someone who
00:32:12
had the streak of paranoia about him uh
00:32:15
he also liked being alone so we don't
00:32:18
believe that any group is helping
00:32:21
him I think this is a game to
00:32:25
him he wanted to be in Special Forces he
00:32:28
wanted to be a mercenary he is a oneman
00:32:30
army and he has got the authorities
00:32:33
running around looking for him spending
00:32:36
millions of
00:32:40
dollars the survivors of Eric Rudolph's
00:32:42
boms are trying to move on with their
00:32:45
lives but they will never forget the end
00:32:48
for me will be to find him and it'll be
00:32:52
a beginning of a whole another book but
00:32:54
it'll be an end of that book and I
00:32:58
just sign and be like it's long time
00:33:01
coming long time
00:33:04
coming
00:33:07
update 5 years after Eric Rudolph
00:33:10
disappeared a police officer noticed a
00:33:13
suspicious person behind a market in
00:33:15
Murphy North
00:33:17
Carolina suspecting a burglary the
00:33:19
officer made an arrest the suspect
00:33:22
proved to be none other than Eric
00:33:25
Rudolph he was later convicted for his
00:33:27
various bombings and sentenced to four
00:33:30
life terms plus
00:33:33
120
00:33:37
years next a trusted executive pulls off
00:33:41
a bold theft 1.3 million in
00:33:53
cash on a previous broadcast we brought
00:33:56
you the story of Brook Baker a
00:33:58
21-year-old student at vincen College in
00:34:02
Indiana Brooke dreamed of one day
00:34:04
becoming a journalist can you call me
00:34:06
back please cuz I'm waiting and I need
00:34:08
Brook's dream would never come
00:34:13
true she was savagely raped and stabbed
00:34:16
to death in her own apartment police
00:34:19
found no signs that the door had been
00:34:21
forced but there was evidence of a
00:34:23
struggle and large amounts of blood
00:34:29
something else caught their attention
00:34:32
water was left running in the
00:34:35
bathtub now it was overflowing but the
00:34:38
most promising clue was a sample of DNA
00:34:42
believed to belong to the
00:34:45
murderer police tested hundreds of
00:34:47
people but failed to identify a
00:34:50
suspect I can't go on with my own life I
00:34:54
can't live without Justice for
00:35:01
Brook
00:35:02
update two years after Brook Baker's
00:35:05
death police finally got their first
00:35:07
break in the case sadly it came at the
00:35:11
cost of another
00:35:13
life when the police investigated the
00:35:15
apartment of missing college student
00:35:17
Erica Elaine Norman they found a crime
00:35:20
scene that was very similar to Brook
00:35:25
Baker's there was water running the bath
00:35:27
tub and I knew right then that it was
00:35:29
the same person who had committed the
00:35:31
the murder of Brook
00:35:33
Baker Erica had last been seen leaving a
00:35:36
local restaurant with a man by the name
00:35:38
of Brian Jones Jones was immediately
00:35:41
brought in for
00:35:42
questioning when we interviewed Brian
00:35:45
Jones turned out that he was a roommate
00:35:47
of an individual that was uh seeing
00:35:50
Brook Baker at within the last couple
00:35:52
weeks of her death Brian Jones DNA
00:35:55
linked him conclusively to the murder of
00:35:58
Brook Baker after his arrest he also
00:36:01
admitted to murdering Erica
00:36:03
[Music]
00:36:05
Norman Brian presented himself to me as
00:36:08
someone that would have not stopped it's
00:36:11
tragic that we lost a a second young
00:36:13
girl but that case stopped a serial
00:36:16
killer in my
00:36:17
opinion Brian Jones was sentenced to
00:36:20
life in prison without the possibility
00:36:23
of
00:36:26
parole
00:36:30
one Saturday morning an executive named
00:36:33
Jack Quinn turned his back on his
00:36:35
company and his family he disappeared
00:36:38
with more than a million dollars in
00:36:40
company funds and now police need your
00:36:43
help to track him
00:36:48
down hi Bob hey how you doing jack Quinn
00:36:51
was the vice president of a bank
00:36:53
security company every day The Firm
00:36:56
handled millions of
00:36:58
in cash how about that race Jack we talk
00:37:00
about on a normal Saturday morning Quinn
00:37:04
arrived at his office early as usual
00:37:07
only a supervisor Harry Goldberg was
00:37:10
working that
00:37:11
morning morning Harry morning Jack I'm
00:37:15
going to take care of the morning run
00:37:17
okay while Harry worked at his desk
00:37:20
Quinn was busy
00:37:26
too
00:37:30
from time to time Harry would see Quinn
00:37:32
in the vault but noticed nothing unusual
00:37:35
I'd walk down the hall several times
00:37:37
pick up coffee or whatever and every
00:37:40
time I'd go past that window I look in
00:37:42
and see him sitting at the desk just as
00:37:44
calm cool and Collective as you'd ever
00:37:46
want to see him I never suspected he
00:37:49
would be doing something like that I
00:37:51
don't even know how he had the
00:37:55
time somehow with without being noticed
00:37:59
Quinn spent most of the morning in the
00:38:00
vault transferring the money from bags
00:38:04
to
00:38:08
boxes Quinn put the money in the trunk
00:38:10
of his company car he also put
00:38:15
$117,000 into the trunk of his personal
00:38:19
car he then asked Carrie Goldberg to
00:38:21

suitcases when he arrived at the airport

[Music]
00:39:02
vanished the trail for Quinn stops at
00:39:04
Palm Beach International Airport from
00:39:07
that point we have no idea where Mr
00:39:08
Quinn has gone indications are he did
00:39:11
not take a plane he did not rent a car
00:39:13
and he did not take a
00:39:15
cab jack dropped the car keys off to me
00:39:18
a while ago and he said he'd be back in
00:39:20
half an hour and that was 5 hours ago
00:39:23
when her husband didn't come home that
00:39:24
evening Quinn's wife called his office
00:39:27
they had no idea where he was or what he
00:39:30
had
00:39:31
done the next morning she found the
00:39:35
$17,000 in the trunk of their car she
00:39:38
turned it into the
00:39:40
[Music]
00:39:42
police she also found a letter that read
00:39:45
in
00:39:46
part I have done something very wrong
00:39:49
and I can't stay and face the
00:39:52
consequences the monies that Quinn left
00:39:55
with that Saturday night are untraceable
00:39:58
there are no pre-recorded serial numbers
00:40:00
there are no bait bills the monies are
00:40:03
of a varied denomination and basically
00:40:06
could never be traced to
00:40:09
him it appears that Quinn may have been
00:40:12
involved in several what we call
00:40:14
defalcations missing money mysterious
00:40:16
disappearances from the
00:40:18
company there was an incident
00:40:20
approximately a month prior to his
00:40:22
leaving where his wife had found a l of
00:40:25
money in the personal V vehicle and it
00:40:28
was unexplained whenever the wife would
00:40:31
find money be it in the car in the house
00:40:33
Quinn would explain it away as he had
00:40:35
sold something a gun a car sold property
00:40:38
and that would explain his acclamation
00:40:40
of the
00:40:41
money in their investigation police
00:40:44
learned that Quinn had once been
00:40:46
suspected of stealing
00:40:48
$70,000 at another firm before he' come
00:40:51
to work at Federal Protection he
00:40:54
underwent a lie detector test to prove
00:40:56
his innocence
00:40:57
the test was
00:41:02
inconclusive several weeks prior to this
00:41:04
St we learned that the IRS was after
00:41:07
Jack Quinn to settle a substantial
00:41:08
amount of money and it was quite obvious
00:41:11
to me that the reason he pulled this job
00:41:12
is because he was going to lose
00:41:14
everything or possibly go to jail there
00:41:16
were reports that Quinn was having an
00:41:18
ongoing Affair a month prior to the
00:41:21
theft Quinn would leave home at 5:00
00:41:23
a.m. yet not arrive at work until 9:30
00:41:27
police speculate that he used the time
00:41:29
to see his girlfriend they also
00:41:32
speculate that they may have run away
00:41:35
together criminal prosecution and IRS
00:41:39
inquiry a secret love affair for
00:41:41
whatever reason he fled Jack Quinn is a
