the same man
00:02:48
prime suspect bobby's husband
00:02:51
jeff overholtzer
00:02:56
i can only say that i didn't do
00:02:58
anything
00:02:59
matter of fact we had just planned
00:03:02
several days before that uh it was time
00:03:04
for us to have children
00:03:06
i miss my wife
00:03:07
i did not kill her
00:03:10
bobby and jeff had been married for four
00:03:12
and a half years jeff ran an appliance
00:03:14
repair business and bobby worked as a
00:03:17
receptionist
00:03:19
according to jeff the day of bobby's
00:03:21
death began as usual she left home at 7
00:03:24
15 a.m and hitchhiked to work
00:03:27
[Music]
00:03:30
everybody hitchhiked you got to know the
00:03:32
people in the town and they got to know
00:03:34
you and
00:03:35
they'd look for you to
00:03:37
take you over and back if you needed a
00:03:39
ride
00:03:45
at 6 20 that evening bobby called to
00:03:47
tell jeff that she was having drinks
00:03:49
with friends after work at the pub for a
00:03:52
while
00:03:52
is that all right she said she was at
00:03:54
the village pub and she was with friends
00:03:57
and she'd be home shortly no i'll get a
00:03:59
ride home with somebody
00:04:00
okay
00:04:01
bye
00:04:04
so i proceeded to put supper on and uh
00:04:07
and waited for her to come
00:04:11
i woke up about midnight and bobby
00:04:13
wasn't home yet bobby
00:04:15
and the bar's
00:04:16
closed at two o'clock and it's only a
00:04:18
half an hour drive home so i thought
00:04:20
well i'll give her that long you know
00:04:22
maybe she's just about having uh kicking
00:04:24
up her heels just a little bit and
00:04:26
forgotten about the time when she didn't
00:04:28
come home after the bars closed
00:04:30
then i i really really knew that that
00:04:33
something was not right at all
00:04:40
jeff drove into breckenridge to look for
00:04:42
bobby her friends told him that she had
00:04:45
left the bar around 7 30 p.m
00:04:48
when jeff reported to the police that
00:04:50
bobby was missing they told him that it
00:04:53
was too early to file a report
00:04:55
finally
00:04:56
he drove back home to wait for bobby
00:05:02
the next morning a farmer who lived 30
00:05:04
miles outside breckenridge found bobby's
00:05:07
driver's license on his property
00:05:11
when jeff and two friends went to pick
00:05:12
it up they made a disturbing discovery
00:05:16
oh wait wait
00:05:17
i think i see something over here
00:05:19
i spotted a blue spot in the snow and
00:05:22
her backpack was blue and so we stopped
00:05:28
yeah this is bobby's backpack
00:05:30
she wore this when she left
00:05:33
with the backpack was one of bobby's
00:05:35
gloves spattered with blood and several
00:05:38
bloody tissues
00:05:41
jeff's friends helped organize a search
00:05:44
two hours later they found bobby's
00:05:46
lifeless body more than 15 miles from
00:05:50
where her backpack was discovered
00:05:53
at the scene police found three
00:05:55
intriguing clues
00:05:58
the only footprints near the body were
00:06:00
bodies
00:06:02
a plastic cord was tied around one of
00:06:04
her wrists and the single orange sock
00:06:07
was found nearby
00:06:10
the same day bobby's body was found
00:06:12
another woman annette k schnee was
00:06:15
reported missing
00:06:18
annette was a cocktail waitress in
00:06:20
frisco colorado and like bobby often
00:06:22
hitchhike to work
00:06:25
from the start police believe that the
00:06:26
two cases were connected
00:06:29
when i first asked jeff if he knew
00:06:31
annette schnee he denied it it was
00:06:34
several days later after seeing her
00:06:36
picture in the newspaper that he came to
00:06:39
me and said that he did know annette and
00:06:40
that he had offered to me that he gave
00:06:42
her a business card
00:06:45
jeff claimed that he had once picked up
00:06:47
a net when she was hitchhiking
00:06:53
jeff said he had given a net his
00:06:55
business card but that he had never seen
00:06:57
or heard from her since that day okay
00:07:00
well i'm not gonna work it right now
00:07:03
annette's body was found six months
00:07:05
after she disappeared
00:07:07
police were stunned when they discovered
00:07:09
she was wearing the other
00:07:12
on the side
00:07:22
the fact that two victims would both be
00:07:25
associated or known by one individual
00:07:28
makes the investigation
00:07:31
tend to focus on jeff oberholtzer as a
00:07:34
primary suspect
00:07:36
authorities pieced together a scenario
00:07:38
for the two murders
00:07:40
annette schnee was last seen in
00:07:42
breckenridge at 4 pm in a serious
00:07:45
conversation with a dark-haired woman
00:07:50
police believe that around 5 pm she left
00:07:53
to hitchhike home
00:07:55
[Music]
00:07:59
the killer drove 20 miles south of
00:08:02
breckenridge
00:08:03
he took a net down a short dead-end road
00:08:07
she was then
00:08:08
either made to this robe or the man
00:08:10
himself undressed her
00:08:13
sexually assaulted
00:08:15
and then allowed to get dressed
00:08:19
while she was getting dressed
00:08:21
she apparently found one long sock put
00:08:25
it on and couldn't find the second long
00:08:28
sock
00:08:29
she then put a booty on her other foot
00:08:31
and her boots on
00:08:34
she apparently
00:08:35
escaped
00:08:38
and while running away was shot in the
00:08:40
back
00:08:45
police believe the killer then drove
00:08:47
back to breckenridge and found his
00:08:49
second victim bobby oberhotzer
00:08:52
where you headed just over the past alma
00:08:55
great i'm going past alma
00:09:00
the killer drove bobby 10 miles south of
00:09:02
breckenridge to a scenic overlook where
00:09:05
he apparently attempted to rape her
00:09:10
we believe that during the fight and the
00:09:14
subsequent escape by her from the
00:09:16
vehicle that the booty came out with
00:09:18
bobby joe
00:09:20
she escaped from this guy and ran down
00:09:23
the
00:09:24
highway
00:09:25
toward her home
00:09:27
and was apparently again
00:09:28
uh contacted by the guy
00:09:31
and confronted with uh a weapon
00:09:34
i don't want to
00:09:38
whatever happened at that point uh
00:09:42
the guy ended up shooting her
00:09:44
twice as she turned away from him my
00:09:47
wife wouldn't have gotten into a vehicle
00:09:49
with uh with just a couple strange uh
00:09:52
guys
00:09:53
plus
00:09:54
the uh
00:09:56
the fact that we had communicated she
00:09:58
knew that she could call for a ride if
00:09:59
she wanted to no i'll get it right home
00:10:01
with somebody
00:10:02
okay i think she knew someone and that
00:10:05
they they left
00:10:06
together with
00:10:08
a promise to her of taking her home
00:10:12
two months after his wife was murdered
00:10:14
jeff oberholtzer took a polygraph exam
00:10:17
and passed
00:10:19
from day one jeff insisted that he had a
00:10:22
rock solid alibi
00:10:24
joe you got two choices
00:10:26
according to jeff at the time the
00:10:28
murders were committed he was at home
00:10:30
visiting with a friend but jeff was
00:10:33
unable to produce the witness for police
00:10:36
then finally jeff's friend surfaced
00:10:39
nine years later
00:10:41
when we interviewed the friend a few
00:10:43
months ago he stated that he had been at
00:10:45
jeff's house that night
00:10:47
however the times that he gave us did
00:10:50
not match up with the times that jeff
00:10:52
had given us
00:10:53
as far as
00:10:54
the finger being pointed at me i'm still
00:10:57
very very angry
00:10:59
about that they had
00:11:01
different agencies had
00:11:04
pursued
00:11:06
different avenues and
00:11:08
not concentrated so much on
00:11:11
trying to
00:11:12
find me guilty
00:11:14
we may have found out who has done this
00:11:16
to these girls
00:11:18
update
00:11:19
there are new developments in this case
00:11:21
and here's one of our staff with details
00:11:25
jeff oberholzer is no longer a suspect
00:11:28
in the murder of his wife bobby joe or
00:11:30
annette k schnee
00:11:32
in 2021 genetic genealogy led to the
00:11:35
arrest of a mechanic named alan lee
00:11:38
phillips who was seen in the area at the
00:11:40
time of the disappearances
00:11:42
phillips was arrested and taken to the
00:11:44
park county jail where he awaits trial
00:11:46
on charges of kidnapping assault and
00:11:49
murder
00:11:51
next
00:11:52
thousands of people in boston are
00:11:54
convinced that he can heal with a wave
00:11:58
of his hand
00:12:09
boston massachusetts
00:12:12
this brownstone is filled with patients
00:12:15
hoping to change their lives i'm here to
00:12:17
quit smoking and i've been smoking over
00:12:20
30 years
00:12:21
fear of
00:12:22
crowds like this
00:12:25
when i came to stop biting my
00:12:26
fingernails
00:12:28
but this is not a medical clinic it's
00:12:31
the office of eufheme chapensoft
00:12:34
a soviet immigrant who many believe has
00:12:36
the power left to heal relax make
00:12:38

thousands have come from around the
00:12:43

00:12:53
kinds of bad habits phobias anorexia
00:12:56

00:12:59
back pain
00:13:02
does this russian immigrant really have
00:13:05
the power to heal
00:13:06
or is he simply a con artist playing on
00:13:09
people's hopes
00:13:10
can a simple wave of his hand
00:13:13
change a life
00:13:14
will you watch
00:13:16
and you be the judge
00:13:18
miranda beeson was a successful new
00:13:20
yorker with a serious health problem she
00:13:23
could not quit smoking i really adored
00:13:26
smoking and i smoked great cigarettes i
00:13:28
won't name the brand
00:13:29
i loved them all
00:13:32
but i had tried numerous other kinds of
00:13:35
ways of smoking cessation and they had
00:13:38
not been successful and i thought i have
00:13:40
nothing to lose
00:13:42
miranda went to boston for a session
00:13:44
with euphine and smoked what she hoped
00:13:46
was her last cigarette
00:13:49
okay okay be brave be brave be brave
00:13:51
because what we have to do is we have
00:13:53
miranda joined others looking for a cure
00:13:55
to their chronic pain or addiction
00:13:58
eupheme held a group healing followed by
00:14:00
individual readings
00:14:03
who have pain phobia and some addiction
00:14:06
of some sort you have who have everybody
00:14:08
you have why are you here why are you
00:14:10
here
00:14:10
i want to quit smoking good smoking he's
00:14:13
incredibly dynamic you have other
00:14:15
[Music]
00:14:19
so that when he focuses on you
00:14:22
you're engaged i give you energy we kind
00:14:24
of sent this fireball across the room
00:14:27
and
00:14:30
that pain is gone
00:14:31
eufine claims that his hand gestures
00:14:34
can't change what he calls bio energy
00:14:37
it's like somebody throwing a really
00:14:39
fast curveball
00:14:41
you're the catcher he's the pitcher
00:14:44
you're there you catch it what i want
00:14:47
you to do is to think in your mind the
00:14:49
first very first puff of cigarette that
00:14:51
you take in miranda's private session
00:14:53
they discussed her 20-year addiction to
00:14:56
cigarettes
00:14:57
some people say he sort of sneezes on
00:14:58
you which is not what he does at all
00:15:01
he kind of gives you this
00:15:04
parting gift
00:15:06
after her session miranda's desire for
00:15:08
cigarettes was gone she claims the
00:15:11
craving stopped i was somehow profoundly
00:15:14
changed
00:15:15
i just know that
00:15:17
i'm greater than this habit at this
00:15:18
point
00:15:20
so it cannot move in
00:15:22
according to yuffie he has helped
00:15:24
thousands like miranda and thousands
00:15:26
more who suffer from another common
00:15:29
addiction
00:15:30
overeating for weight loss i help
00:15:33
dramatically i remove desire to eat
00:15:35
whatever you want i remove desire
00:15:37
tweaking between meals i remove desire
00:15:39
to eat big portions etc etc but excesses
00:15:42
i cannot do instead of here
00:15:44
when family stress and financial
00:15:46
pressure got to be too much
00:15:48
louise cold began overeating
00:15:52
i would actually hide food
00:15:55
just just for emergencies for me
00:15:58
and because i knew that it did comfort
00:16:00
me so after things were quiet and
00:16:02
everything was taken care of instead of
00:16:04
falling apart emotionally and
00:16:05
exhaustedly crying or you know just
00:16:08
falling to sleep i would go to the
00:16:10
kitchen and bring out my goodies louise
00:16:13
tried to stop binging but she could not
00:16:17
louise decided to take a chance with
00:16:19
yuffie
00:16:20
after her first session she felt great
00:16:23
and within three months saw positive
00:16:26
results
00:16:27
i had lost 17 pounds and now it's down
00:16:29
to 20 pounds
00:16:32
eufane caught the attention of two
00:16:34
harvard university doctors who agreed to
00:16:37
do a clinical trial
00:16:39
the goal was to examine eufem's success
00:16:41
rate
00:16:43
two psychotherapists asked yfin
00:16:46
to come and work with a number of
00:16:48
patients of theirs whom they had treated
00:16:50
without success these were people with
00:16:52
fear of needles phobias smoking
00:16:55
pain
00:16:56
they first observed the healing sessions
00:16:59
are you actually a doctor no i'm not a
00:17:01
doctor
00:17:02
the doctors kept track of the trial
00:17:04
group for four months
00:17:06
anybody have questions for me nobody
00:17:08
questioned
00:17:09
he saw all of these patients
00:17:11
and managed to cure 85 of them tell me
00:17:15
about the tetanus shot well when i went
00:17:16
into the doctor's office i wasn't
00:17:18
nervous at all i had no fear of the
00:17:20
needle
00:17:21
when the harvard doctors
00:17:23
studied what he had done
00:17:25
they were able to conclude that he had
00:17:27
not hypnotized anyone
00:17:29
no no it wasn't like hypnosis at all in
00:17:31
fact they weren't really sure what he
00:17:32
had done they just knew that whatever he
00:17:34
did it worked
00:17:37
when the harvard trial was published the
00:17:39
study concluded that euphem's powers
00:17:42
were genuine
00:17:44
the harvard study at most shows that
00:17:47
there is some real effect here most
00:17:50
probably a placebo effect and when they
00:17:53
state that something real happened they
00:17:55
don't mean real psychic power or
00:17:58
anything like that but that a real
00:18:00
mental power in the in the patients
00:18:02
themselves happened
00:18:04
i don't think yephem has any special
00:18:05
power at all other than the power to
00:18:07
convince people that they can implement
00:18:10
change in their own lives i don't think
00:18:12
anybody knows how it works i just know
00:18:13
that it does work and i've been very
00:18:16
successful with it
00:18:19
you may go see him and say i don't
00:18:20
understand a word this man says i don't
00:18:23
know what he's doing
00:18:25
you can be suspect or you can say you
00:18:26
know what i go around once
00:18:28
what do i have to lose
00:18:33
during some 30 years of practice eupheme
00:18:35
has seen more than 135
00:18:38
000 patients
00:18:40
many swear that they have been healed by
00:18:42
him but skeptics claim that his miracle
00:18:45
cures are nothing more than the power of
00:18:48
suggestion
00:18:50
the truth
00:18:51
well that remains
00:18:53
an unsolved mystery
00:18:59
next a young woman looking forward to
00:19:01
her wedding day vanishes
00:19:03
without a trace
00:19:15
richmond indiana
00:19:18
it was a hot and humid day when 28 year
00:19:21
old marilyn nicki mccomb stormed into
00:19:24
her mother's kitchen
00:19:25
these two guys at the laundromat would
00:19:27
not leave me alone she just was really
00:19:29
upset
00:19:30
and i laughed at first you know because
00:19:32
she's such a pretty girl i just thought
00:19:34
that
00:19:35
some man was making a play you know
00:19:38
i said
00:19:39
nikki just calmed down because she
00:19:41
really was really upset
00:19:44
nicki may have been upset but police
00:19:46
believe she returned to the laundromat
00:19:48
anyway
00:19:49
no one knows for sure because on that
00:19:52
muggy summer day nikki disappeared and
00:19:55
she hasn't been seen or heard from since
00:19:59
police had trouble believing that nicki
00:20:01
would take off just three weeks before
00:20:04
her wedding they suspected foul play but
00:20:07
without a body and with no apparent
00:20:09
motive they had nothing to go on it was
00:20:11
a complex puzzle with pieces that simply
00:20:15
did not fit
00:20:17
so you guys are gonna get fitted for
00:20:18
your tuxedos today yeah the day she
00:20:20
disappeared nikki set off to do the
00:20:22
laundry while her fiance bobby webster
00:20:25
met his best man to be fitted for their
00:20:27
tuxedos the wedding day was just three
00:20:30
weeks away
00:20:31
she spent so much money put so much into
00:20:35
this wedding she wanted it to be the
00:20:36
most perfect wedding she wanted her face
00:20:39
to be perfect her hair to be perfect her
00:20:42
body to be perfect she wanted everything
00:20:44
to be perfect
00:20:46
but nikki's wedding was not to be
00:20:49
ever since she disappeared her family
00:20:52
and police have been trying to figure
00:20:54
out what really happened
00:20:56
i'm just going to borrow this real quick
00:20:57
police believe that if nicki returned to
00:21:00
the laundromat she may have been
00:21:01
confronted again by the two strangers
00:21:06
what
00:21:08
have you seen nikki the day after
00:21:09
nicki's disappearance bobby contacted
00:21:12
richmond police to report that his
00:21:14
fiancee was missing yeah i tried them
00:21:17
but nothing filling all that information
00:21:19
that missing person's report was very
00:21:21
difficult it was
00:21:22
because
00:21:23
a situation like this you just see
00:21:25
happening on like a tv movie or
00:21:27
something you never really think in your
00:21:30
wildest imagination you'd be in that
00:21:31
situation until it it really happens and
00:21:33
it's
00:21:34
it's really confusing
00:21:36
shortly after nicki disappeared bobby
00:21:38
began acting very strangely
00:21:41
instead of postponing the wedding he
00:21:43
cancelled it entirely demanding a full
00:21:46
refund from the reception hall
00:21:49
next bobby tried to return his wedding
00:21:52
band for cash your policy clearly states
00:21:54
that if i bring back the ring and the
00:21:56
ring is not damaged sir but the manager
00:21:58
refused
00:21:59
nikki had paid for the ring and her name
00:22:01
was on the receipt
00:22:03
allegedly the argument nearly turned
00:22:05
violent
00:22:07
i'm gonna have to ask you to leave
00:22:09
bobby had to be escorted from the store
00:22:12
bobby's reason was that he needed the
00:22:14
money to help pay for nicki's search
00:22:18
i was to the point where it's like you
00:22:19
know it doesn't matter right now this
00:22:20
wedding doesn't matter
00:22:22
nikki's well-being is what matters right
00:22:23
now
00:22:25
detectives weren't convinced they asked
00:22:28
bobby to take a polygraph
00:22:30
at first he refused but later said yes
00:22:34
one of the questions
00:22:35
that was asked to mr webster was
00:22:38
did you have anything to do with the
00:22:40
disappearance of nicki mccown
00:22:42
and he says no
00:22:44
and according to the operator the needle
00:22:46
about jumps off the chart
00:22:48
so not only did he fail it i mean he
00:22:50
failed it miserably
00:22:53
bobby doesn't believe that he failed a
00:22:54
polygraph neither he nor his lawyer have
00:22:58
ever seen the results i just said look
00:23:00
you ain't got to give it to me to send
00:23:01
it to my lawyer
00:23:03
but they don't do stuff like that around
00:23:04
here that's what they told me
00:23:09
nikki have been gone for three months
00:23:11
before detectives got their first break
00:23:13
in the case
00:23:14
her suv was found at a large apartment
00:23:17
complex in dayton ohio 45 minutes east
00:23:21
of her home in indiana
00:23:23
police believe it had been there for
00:23:25
weeks
00:23:26
the door lock was punched out the
00:23:28
ignition had been hot wired and the
00:23:30
stereo was missing
00:23:34
we kept getting told by the police you
00:23:36
know we got to locate this truck it's
00:23:37
the big piece of the puzzle
00:23:40
and
00:23:41
when they located it it was a little
00:23:43
relief that now they can find nikki
00:23:47
an important clue was left in nicki's
00:23:49
suv
00:23:50
neatly folded
00:23:52
laundry
00:23:53
the clothes appeared that they'd come
00:23:55
just from the laundromat they were
00:23:57
folded
00:23:58
neatly they hadn't
00:24:00
did not have the appearance that someone
00:24:01
had went through the clothing or taken
00:24:03
any of the items
00:24:04
if nicki had been abducted from the
00:24:06
laundromat why would her clothes be
00:24:08
neatly folded in the back seat of her
00:24:10
suv and who drove her car from richmond
00:24:14
to dayton
00:24:16
police were surprised to discover that
00:24:18
nikki had an ex-boyfriend who lived in
00:24:21
the same apartment complex where her suv
00:24:24
was found i talked he was very
00:24:27
cooperative
00:24:28
we checked his alibi we found out he was
00:24:30
at work the time that she was reported
00:24:32
missing he agreed to take a lie detector
00:24:34
test and
00:24:36
come through it
00:24:37
fine
00:24:39
so we we could eliminate him as a
00:24:41
suspect i don't know what else to tell
00:24:42
you another dead end
00:24:45
however police later discovered that
00:24:47
nicki made a phone call to dayton the
00:24:49
day she disappeared it's nikki to a
00:24:52
co-worker who lived about a mile from
00:24:54
where her suv was found
00:24:56
do you know where i can find them they
00:24:58
talked about beauty products and her
00:25:00
friend told nikki where she could
00:25:02
purchase the items that she was looking
00:25:04
for in dayton
00:25:05
this leads us to think that
00:25:07
we've got two different scenarios
00:25:09
something happened to her over here in
00:25:10
richmond indiana or
00:25:13
she drove over to ohio and something
00:25:15
happened to her over there
00:25:18
now there was another theory
00:25:20
if nicki drove to dayton something may
00:25:22
have happened to her on the way
00:25:24
but if so
00:25:26
how did her suv end up in the parking
00:25:28
lot where her ex-boyfriend lived was it
00:25:31
simply a coincidence
00:25:33
i find it hard to believe
00:25:35
and then if it's not coincidental then
00:25:37
what better way to to throw the
00:25:39
suspicion off of somebody's
00:25:42
over here in richmond
00:25:44
that theory leads police right back to
00:25:46
bobby webster and his strange behavior
00:25:49
right after nicki disappeared
00:25:52
i love bobby to death there's no way
00:25:54
he'd do this he'd have to be the devil
00:25:56
himself to be able to walk around here
00:25:58
still see us face to face you know i
00:26:00
mean everybody has their limits
00:26:02
nikki's mother however isn't so sure
00:26:05
about bobby
00:26:06
there's a wise old woman once told me
00:26:09
keep your friends close and your enemies
00:26:11
even closer
00:26:12
so i stuck with him like glue
00:26:15
because i figured if bobby did do this
00:26:17
or if he knew anybody did do it
00:26:21
he would come to me
00:26:22
police continue to follow up on other
00:26:25
possible leads while also keeping a
00:26:27
close eye on bobby webster
00:26:31
i believe that based on all the
00:26:33
information we have so far that if mr
00:26:35
webster did not have anything to do with
00:26:37
the disappearance of nicki mccown he
00:26:39
does know quite a bit about
00:26:42
what did happen to her
00:26:44
i don't know anything about
00:26:46
nikki's disappearance or whereabouts
00:26:49
have nothing to do with it
00:26:50
i mean i love nicki moore and i love
00:26:53
myself
00:26:54
and
00:26:55
all i wanted to do was just be the best
00:26:57
man i could
00:26:59
and
00:27:00
you know it feels unfair that
00:27:02
i'm in the situation that i'm in now
00:27:04
just because i love so much you know
00:27:06
i just understand it
00:27:08
nikki mccown is 5 feet 2 inches and
00:27:10
weighs 115 pounds she has brown eyes
00:27:14
brown hair and a small scar over her
00:27:16
left eye

[Music]
00:27:46
southampton new york
00:27:48
21 year old nancy heyer and 19 year old
00:27:51
billy fisher met by chance
00:27:55
their friendship began when nancy became
00:27:57
hopeless and lost on a train and was on
00:28:00
the verge of tears billy stepped forward
00:28:03
and offered to help nancy escorting your
00:28:05
home to hicksville long island
00:28:08
nancy thought billy was
00:28:10
a really nice guy she did say to me he's
00:28:13
starting to look at me like a girlfriend
00:28:15
kind of thing and i don't like him that
00:28:17
way
00:28:18
but she didn't want to hurt his feelings
00:28:19
because he was so nice
00:28:22
on a stormy night three weeks after they
00:28:24
met nancy got a call from billy
00:28:27
nancy told her sister deborah that billy
00:28:29
needed a ride home from his father's
00:28:31
house in southampton about 65 miles away
00:28:36
and i said i can't believe you're going
00:28:37
to drive in this weather you don't even
00:28:39
like to drive at night
00:28:40
and she says well he's done so much for
00:28:42
me
00:28:43
that i'm going to just go
00:28:46
nancy's mother joan was also concerned
00:28:50
as i saw my daughter drive away i was a
00:28:53
little fearful myself
00:28:56
worry
00:28:57
just mother's worry
00:28:59
that's enough
00:29:01
when nancy hires set off for southampton
00:29:04
she had absolutely no idea that she was
00:29:06
headed straight into a family conflict
00:29:09
that would turn violent
00:29:10
and deadly
00:29:13
when nancy met billy he was deeply in
00:29:15
debt and seriously ill with cystic
00:29:18
fibrosis i may speak to william fisher
00:29:20
please
00:29:21
billy hadn't spoken with his father in
00:29:23
over a year but he decided to ask him
00:29:26
for help hello hi dad he was employed by
00:29:30
a
00:29:31
well-to-do car dealership in manhattan
00:29:33
and the city of new york
00:29:35
was making a very high salary the
00:29:37
investigation determined that he began
00:29:39
and had been using a cocaine extensively
00:29:42
to the point that
00:29:43
it affected his performance at his place
00:29:45
of employment
00:29:47
billy's father invited his son to visit
00:29:49
for the weekend to discuss his money
00:29:51
problems hey billy how you doing
00:29:55
the day after billy arrived he called
00:29:58
nancy and asked for a ride home
00:30:01
that night nancy's mother waited
00:30:03
anxiously for her return
00:30:06
the clock was going twelve o'clock one
00:30:08
o'clock two o'clock
00:30:10
she might have had to stale because of
00:30:12
the weather
00:30:14
or the time of night
00:30:16
but then i still kept
00:30:18
hesitant because i said she would never
00:30:20
not call me yes well i know she's 21.
00:30:23
could you please next morning still no
00:30:25
nancy
00:30:26
joan and deborah began to panic the
00:30:28
police couldn't help because technically
00:30:31
nancy had not been gone long enough to
00:30:33
be officially declared missing i don't
00:30:36
know where she left it they searched
00:30:38
nancy's bedroom tried to find billy's
00:30:40
phone number
00:30:42
no wait here it is um fisher
00:30:48
oh
00:30:49
yes uh hello um this is nancy heyer's
00:30:52
mother joan oh mr fisher yes i'd like to
00:30:55
know if my daughter came out there last
00:30:57
evening yeah she was here nice to see
00:30:59
your son william fisher told joan that
00:31:02
he had dinner with nancy and billy and
00:31:04
that afterwards they left in nancy's car
00:31:07
he said oh they probably just went
00:31:09
somewhere he says or billy somewhere and
00:31:11
nancy somewhere else if i hear anything
00:31:14
i'll give you a call he seemed very
00:31:17
forthcoming
00:31:18
that he was concerned about his own son
00:31:21
we were thinking at that point that
00:31:23
young billy had
00:31:25
taken her somewhere
00:31:27
and done something
00:31:29
the next morning there was still no word
00:31:31
from nancy
00:31:33
jones filed a missing person's report
00:31:35
but with no proof of foul play police
00:31:37
were unable to help
00:31:42
joan had nowhere to turn so
00:31:44
she called the last person who saw her
00:31:47
daughter alive william fisher mr fisher
00:31:50
uh could you go over step by step
00:31:52
exactly what happened during the call he
00:31:54
became confrontational they came over he
00:31:57
would fly off the handle and tell me
00:32:01
let the police handle this i have no
00:32:02
idea where these kids went and he was
00:32:05
getting very very hostile over the phone
00:32:08
goodbye
00:32:11
so i
00:32:13
kept getting more suspicious of mr
00:32:15
fisher
00:32:17
ten days after nancy disappeared police
00:32:20
responded to a report of an abandoned
00:32:22
car in a parking lot less than two miles
00:32:25
from fisher's house
00:32:29
coming back to that missing girl nancing
00:32:31
higher see if you can pop the trunk
00:32:36
oh my god sorry
00:32:38
located in the trunk of the car was a
00:32:40
young billy fisher a second body was
00:32:43
located on anything and that was young
00:32:45
nancy
00:32:47
the autopsy reported that billy
00:32:50
had been shot 18 times
00:32:52
the vast majority of those rounds were
00:32:54
in the head at close range
00:32:56
nancy's autopsy revealed that she had
00:32:58
been stabbed twice with a very long
00:33:01
sharp instrument
00:33:04
around that same time police received
00:33:06
reports from neighbors that fisher had
00:33:08
been remodeling his master bedroom in
00:33:11
the middle of the night
00:33:15
well you can see it's been freshly
00:33:16
painted
00:33:17
police secured a search warrant
00:33:20
[Applause]
00:33:22
slight indentations were observed from
00:33:24
the section of wall and it was removed
00:33:28
two 22-caliber bullets were recovered
00:33:31
a single strand of hair was fused to one
00:33:34
of the bullets it was identified
00:33:37
as billy fisher's
00:33:39
that established that this was the crime
00:33:41
scene additional testing established
00:33:43
that there was a large amount of blood
00:33:45
splatted all about the halls of the
00:33:47
hallway
00:33:48
consistent with
00:33:50
an individual nancy being stabbed in
00:33:52
that area immediately outside the master
00:33:54
bedroom
00:33:55
that means the evidence pointed directly
00:33:57
to william fisher
00:34:00
what could have driven him to shoot his
00:34:02
own son 18 times and then murder a
00:34:06
complete stranger that's the same as

taking someone else's child that they

next a lost orphan is reunited with two
00:35:36
brothers after more than 30 years
00:35:50
memphis tennessee
00:35:52
in 1949 the tennessee children's home
00:35:55
society was considered a model orphanage
00:35:59
director georgia tan placed 5 000
00:36:02
orphans with new families and won
00:36:04
national praise for her efforts
00:36:07
but georgia 10 had a very dark side
00:36:11
when i was growing up i was told that i
00:36:13
was adopted from memphis tennessee
00:36:17
i found correspondence from the
00:36:19
tennessee children's home
00:36:21
two and a half years later
00:36:24
i found my name two hours later i found
00:36:27
my mother
00:36:30
cindy lou presto also discovered that
00:36:32
her mother had never put her up for
00:36:35
adoption
00:36:36
the stunning truth
00:36:38
georgia tan had simply
00:36:40
kidnapped cindy
00:36:42
[Music]
00:36:45
good morning children when authorities
00:36:48
investigated tan they discovered that
00:36:50
she and a custody judge named camille
00:36:52
kelly we're using the orphanage as a
00:36:55
cover for a black market
00:36:59
i'm confident that camille kelly was
00:37:02
involved with georgia tan in this
00:37:04
operation georgia tan could not have
00:37:06
carried it on without her
00:37:08
and camille kelly could not have lived
00:37:10
in the style she lived unless she had
00:37:12
outside income
00:37:14
three days after robert taylor presented
00:37:16
his report to the governor of tennessee
00:37:19
georgia tan died of cancer
00:37:22
two months later judge camille kelly
00:37:25
resigned
00:37:26
the tennessee children's home society
00:37:29
was out of business
00:37:31
but today
00:37:32
hundreds of stolen children are still
00:37:34
searching for their natural parents
00:37:38
update
00:37:40
as the result of our broadcast another
00:37:43
child from the tennessee children's home
00:37:45
society
00:37:46
has been reunited with her family
00:37:50
glenn heinz was five years old when she
00:37:52
was adopted i was adopted into a very
00:37:55
very fine family
00:37:57
but there wasn't a lot of love in the
00:37:59
family
00:38:00
and even though you know
00:38:02
you try to
00:38:04
make the adopted child part of the
00:38:06
family you're always still just a little
00:38:08
bit different
00:38:09
and so it meant a great deal to me to
00:38:11
find that i really had a true family
00:38:14
lin was born martha jean googin and
00:38:17
placed in georgia tan's orphanage in
00:38:19
1949
00:38:21
three weeks after our broadcast lynn
00:38:23
learned that her father and two brothers
00:38:26
paul and randall were still living in
00:38:28
tennessee
00:38:29
one of the things that i had been
00:38:30
fearful is that the family did not want
00:38:33
me to find them
00:38:34
when i did finally get hold of randall
00:38:36
reynolds said if you don't come here
00:38:37
we're coming there
00:38:39
like tomorrow
00:38:41
lin flew to tennessee the next day it
00:38:44
had been 40 years since she had seen her
00:38:46
brothers
00:38:48
she walked all the plane i knew she was
00:38:50
just like that
00:38:52
well she spitting image of her mother
00:38:54
a very spitting image
00:38:56
that afternoon randall and paul tookman
00:38:59
to meet their 86 year old father
00:39:02
rufus goocon it's just like yesterday
00:39:05
you know somebody to love be loved by
00:39:10
that you never had before
00:39:12
i would have to say that this is like
00:39:14
christmas
00:39:15
new year's everything rolled up into one
00:39:18
when i found the family i felt like i
00:39:20
was queen for a day and it's all nine
00:39:23
years
00:39:29
they call them amazons fierce female
00:39:32
warriors who dominated men
00:39:35
most believe that amazons are nothing
00:39:37
more than myth
00:39:39
but now scientists working in russia
00:39:41
have found the remains of what could be
00:39:43
a tribe of these female warriors
00:39:48
contrary to popular belief the legend of
00:39:51
the amazons did not originate in south
00:39:53
america but in ancient greece
00:39:57
it said that amazons loved battle and
00:40:00
were not allowed to marry until they had
00:40:02
first killed an enemy
00:40:04
the greeks used the amazons as the
00:40:07
antithesis
00:40:08
of what a greek woman should be the
00:40:11
greek woman should stay at home take
00:40:12
care of the kids take care of the house
00:40:14
and the amazon went out and fought the
00:40:16
greeks and so therefore she got her
00:40:19
got what was coming to her when she was
00:40:20
killed
00:40:22
janine davis kindle and a team of
00:40:25
american and russian archaeologists have
00:40:27
spent four years excavating iron age
00:40:30
burial mounds in southern russia that
00:40:33
date from the 4th century
00:40:35
pc
00:40:36
most scholars believe that early nomads
00:40:38
were male-dominated tribes
00:40:41
the men were the leaders the warriors
00:40:43
and the priests
00:40:44
but these graves
00:40:46
tell a different story
00:40:48
we have women with weapons
00:40:51
women who are actually
00:40:53
controlling wealth we have a different
00:40:56
concept entirely of what we think of
00:40:59
nomads
00:41:00
the grave of one young woman contained
00:41:02
artifacts that proved she was much more
00:41:05
than an ancient housewife
00:41:08
she had a quiver
00:41:10
by her side that had a lot of bronze
00:41:12
arrowheads in it she had a dagger
00:41:15
on the other side and then there was
00:41:16
this large boar's tusk that was drilled
00:41:19
and it was probably suspended
00:41:21
around her waist from a cord
00:41:24
another woman was found with a bronze
00:41:26
arrowhead embedded in her body a sign
00:41:29
that she probably died in battle
00:41:33
who were these women warriors
00:41:35
are they in fact the source material for
00:41:38
the legendary
00:41:39
amazons
00:41:41
we've
00:41:42
scientifically proven that there there
00:41:44
were women warriors number one number
00:41:46
two we also now realize that women have
00:41:49
not always been at the bottom of the pit
00:41:52
and can control their own lives and and
00:41:55
and be
00:41:56
like a woman warrior
00:41:59
the legend of the amazons lives on the
00:42:02
amazon river is named after them
00:42:04
california takes its name from an amazon
00:42:07
queen
00:42:08
khalifa
00:42:10
and in television reruns the mythic
00:42:12
story of the warrior princess
00:42:14
continues to be told
