00:03:37
um but I think I've heard of this yeah I was surprised that I hadn't because it's
00:03:42
um the basis for like a pretty popular television show really yeah um Dallas the soap opera oh yeah okay I never
00:03:49
watched Dallas but of it but I know of it and now I kind of want to watch it I don't but okay
00:03:56
I that doesn't seem like something that you would watch so but I remember it was
00:04:00
like a huge thing in the 80s yeah it was like Dallas was like the the [ __ ] the
00:04:06
like super drama yes so and you can you'll see why at the end of this but at the center of these two murders is
00:04:14
there's a couple of people but at the at the center that we're going to start is
00:04:18
Priscilla Lee Childers she was born July 30th 1941 in Dublin Texas not Ireland to
00:04:26
be clear and Dublin Texas is a small town right outside of Houston now her mother AI Lee already had two
00:04:32
children both boys and aie was just going through it trying to raise her kids as a single parent after she was
00:04:39
abandoned by her husband shortly after Priscilla was born oh boy he was like oh we have three kids now bye cool can you
00:04:45
imagine love that so with her uh with help from her brother guy Audie did her best to raise the kids right and passed
00:04:51
down a love of arts and culture that she had developed herself when she was a kid
00:04:55
and as a result little Priscilla was enrolled in dance and piano classes at an early age which that's [ __ ]
00:05:01
awesome that her mom's a single mom and still figured out how to make that happen yeah it's hard enough when you
00:05:06
have a village to help yeah ex stuff but she was also encouraged to focus on her
00:05:11
studies and get good grades so that she could have a better life than what her mom had had and what was really
00:05:17
available for most young women in this rural part of Texas so in 1956 when she was 16 years old Priscilla found what
00:05:25
she thought was a way out of Dublin in the form of 19-year-old Jasper Baker Jasper Baker what a name Jasper Baker
00:05:34
now despite her young age Priscilla fell desperately in love with Jasper Baker I
00:05:40
feel like you just have to say both of his names you do you can't just say Jasper no and before long they decided
00:05:45
to get married just 10 days before her 17th birthday oh boy she gave birth to their daughter oh wow Angela D who they
00:05:52
simply called D which I think is like a really cute D that's cute but unfortunately it seemed like things
00:06:00
really happened super quickly and then fizzled out as quickly as they had started things quickly turned bad
00:06:07
between the two of them and like her own father had done he abandoned her not long after she had the baby oh [ __ ] you
00:06:12
Jasper yeah which forced her to move back into her mother's house in Dublin which is where she was trying to get out
00:06:18
of not because she had like a bad relationship with her mom at all she wanted more now it didn't take long
00:06:24
before Priscilla had found another way out of Dublin this time with a man named Jack wilborne
00:06:29
unlike Jasper Jack was mature he was actually 19 years older than Priscilla and he owned a used car business in the
00:06:36
suburbs of Fort Worth Texas so in 1960 Jack and Priscilla after they had fallen in love got married they moved into a
00:06:43
new house in Fort Worth and at first things were like a dream Priscilla wasn't even 20 years old she already had
00:06:50
a husband a maid a really nice house in the suburbs and within a year she gave birth to their first child Jack Jor who
00:06:58
they were refer to as Jackie and then he was followed in 1964 by her third and final child a girl they named Andrea Lee
00:07:07
okay now from the outside Priscilla and Jack's marriage really seemed ideal they
00:07:11
had a stable income he owned that business they had great kids and they were members of one of the nicest
00:07:16
country clubs in the State uh oh I just feel like there's too much good happening yeah I feel like whenever it
00:07:22
starts with a country club too it's like it's just like too it can go south quick
00:07:27
yeah than I mean if it can always go well but what people didn't see from theide
00:07:34
was that Jack andisa had been drifting apart for quite some time according to Priscilla not long after Andrea was born
00:07:42
Jack became verbally and emotionally abusive towards her she told a friend Greg Brown I could never do anything
00:07:49
right I used to go out on the swing in the backyard and just cry at night oh that's so sad which like you have three
00:07:55
kids you finally got your way out and you think you have this swing crying like you think you have this fairy tale
00:08:00
life and then he just changes like and gets so dark all of a sudden so lonely now the problem it seemed was that while
00:08:07
she had no trouble staying busy three children and a husband that saw to the fact that she would stay busy Priscilla
00:08:13
didn't really have any identity aside from being a wife and a mother and that's the that was not the only
00:08:20
identity she wanted to have she was seeking yes she had never finished high school she never received really any
00:08:25
kind of specialized training she really didn't have any marketable skills because she was 17 when she married her
00:08:31
first husband so she was super dependent exactly she was dependent on Jack for almost everything so in order to combat
00:08:37
the growing anxiety and the depression that she was starting to feel she decided you know what I'm going to
00:08:42
reinvent myself which like I love I love a little like rein moment you know she grew her hair longer than it had ever
00:08:49
been she dyed it platinum blonde oh wow she's Gorge if you Google a picture of her she's beautiful she Wee Heavy a lot
00:08:56
heavier makeup than what most Texas Housewives were wearing at the time and she started dressing in what could be
00:09:03
considered more youthful and revealing outfits they weren't really up to the women of Texas's standards at the time
00:09:11
oh please but she was living she was living her best life according to Greg Brown who wrote Texas tragedy the story
00:09:16
of Priscilla Davis prisilla quote resembled the then sex symbol Bridget BAU oh wow she is beautiful isn't she so
00:09:23
pretty damn and he said she looked like Bridget BAU who I also think is like unbelievably gorgeous truth
00:09:30
uh but she didn't really look like you know a homemaker the mother of three young kids anymore like what people
00:09:35
thought that should look like that's so absurd of course it is now whether the aesthetic changes helped her to feel
00:09:41
more satisfied with her life are kind it's kind of unknown but they definitely caused her to get noticed by men other
00:09:47
than Jack skip hollandsworth of the New York Times wrote each spring at the colonial National Invitational gol golf
00:09:54
tournament in Fort Worth hordes of men would gather around and this is so gross just to to get a peek at what they
00:10:00
fondly described as her balcony which I'm assuming is her chest everybody needs to get it together like
00:10:08
you got to get it together guys cuz that's that's gross why don't you just say like she's beautiful I I I just
00:10:15
wanted a chance to look at her because she's beautiful I wanted to see her balcony I wanted to look at her tits go
00:10:22
watch porn [ __ ] be quiet about it you're an [ __ ] that's really gross and it's like hordes of men gathering
00:10:28
around to like like just her at her balcony what the [ __ ] are you doing calling it a balcony just dumb there's
00:10:38
so many problems here many Now One Day in 1967 during a mixed doubles games on the courts of I think it's R rgia
00:10:47
Country Club uh Priscilla met a new admirer young oil tycoon Colin Davis that's a name Colin Davis that's a name
00:10:56
lots of she's a she's a got a thing for names I think yeah you got to pick a strong name yeah now despite being a
00:11:01
complete stranger to Priscilla Colin was very well known in in around Fort Worth
00:11:05
as the son of Kenneth stinky Davis o they called him stinky what a name yeah I don't know what a nickname that's
00:11:14
something came from somewhere sure did I don't really know if I want to know where I don't at all but stinky Davis
00:11:20
was one of Fort Worth's wealthiest oil men you can't not laugh when you say that but he was he had a lot of [ __ ]
00:11:28
money and after graduating from Texas you need to have a lot of money if your nickname is stinky if you're going to go
00:11:33
by stinky Davis you you better have some money something going for you you need something so after graduating from Texas
00:11:39
A&M university around 1955 Cen returned home to Fort Worth and went to work for his father's and his family's Oil
00:11:47
Business in 1962 he got married to his first wife Sandra and actually that Day in 1967 during that mixed doubles game
00:11:57
he and his wife Sandra were playing playing against Priscilla and her friend oh and that's how he met Priscilla oh
00:12:04
but with his wife with his wife who he was married to oh but that marriage was never really a happy marriage and Sandra
00:12:12
went through a lot we will come to see oh according to skip hollandsworth Colin was best known around Fort Worth for his
00:12:19
way with women and his marriage to Sandra never really stopped him from pursuing women so he's a pig he is
00:12:28
something so Colin and Sandra Davis they had wealth they had status and with their two boys they made for a very
00:12:34
respectable family from the outside but at 34 years old he's thinking you know he's this young buck
00:12:41
respectability and St stability weren't really what he wanted which like by the time I'm 34 I would love some
00:12:47
respectability and stability but what he was after was passion and Adventure you can have all
00:12:54
of that yeah why can't you have all that together you can be passionate and adventure and still be St and
00:12:59
respectable yeah like why not but apparently not in colen's mind later after he divorced Sandra colen would
00:13:05
tell the press that he'd only married his first wife quote because it seemed like the right thing to do at the time
00:13:11
that's what every woman wants to hear yeah and it's like you have two children like and why would you ever say that
00:13:16
about the mother of your children knowing that your children could hear that yeah now it seems that colen though
00:13:21
and Priscilla had been having similar easential crisis crises and each was seeking to shake up their life so they
00:13:29
kind of met during a time where it was it was a perfect stor say yeah now she hadn't exactly been looking to have an
00:13:37
outright Affair but after their meeting on the tennis courts Priscilla and Colin
00:13:41
did start seeing each other regularly but secretly they were meeting at Green Oaks in in Fort Worth to you know keep
00:13:49
everything Hush Hush in early 1968 Colin suggested that they take a trip to Acapulco is it yeah
00:13:56
okay they wanted to go there for the weekend but unbeknownst to them Jack wilborne
00:14:02
had a sneaking suspicion that his wife was seeing somebody else and in late December he hired a private detective to
00:14:10
follow Priscilla uh oh now the private detective reported back to him about this trip to a Acapulco and Jack in turn
00:14:19
called Sandra Davis and informed her that her husband was [ __ ] around on her with his wife I mean so in case
00:14:26
you're not following Jack is married to Priscilla but Priscilla is seeing Cullen
00:14:32
who's married to Sandra and Jack call Sandra and it's like we should probably team up here
00:14:39
because our spouses are cheating on us with each other precisely uh and together they did team up they went full
00:14:45
VH1 cheaters with a private investigator they all including the pi devised a plan
00:14:51
to wait at the airport for the plane to arrive from Mexico and then follow the car to Green Oak's Inn where they
00:14:57
decided they would surprise them and put an end to the love affair or so they thought that's pretty uh hilarious like
00:15:06
that is that's I I love that method I think that's great exposed I think it's great it's just like you call the other
00:15:12
one you're like well we're we're both in the similar spot here so and at that point when you've been wronged to that
00:15:19
extent like why not get a little bit of enjoyment out of the exposure well you're both showing up and being like we
00:15:24
both know yeah so it's all out in the open exactly no more like this person knows or that person knows or this
00:15:30
person doesn't know this part or nope we're all the same page we're everything out here all the dirty laundry right on
00:15:35
the line yeah now it was late when the plane arrived in Fort Worth but Jack Sandra and the pi there waited and they
00:15:42
followed Priscilla and colen to the Green Oaks where they checked in a little after midnight a few hours later
00:15:48
while they slept the door to colen in in Priscilla's room burst open and they were shocked to find their respective
00:15:55
spouses and a man that they didn't know standing before the bed Yik unclear exactly how they like uh the pi and
00:16:04
busted open that door Jack and Sandra were able to get in there but they did Priscilla jumped from the bed and ran to
00:16:09
the bathroom trying to hide but it was too late I was going to say that's not going to work the private investigator
00:16:15
had already managed to take several photos of the couple in bed together and a messy divorce was soon to follow now
00:16:22
at first I was like why the [ __ ] would you take pictures for the divorce for the divorce cuz I was like that's kind
00:16:27
of weird but I was like oh that's proof yeah it's just like here it is it's not just irreconcilable
00:16:33
differences now shortly after the uh Affairs were exposed Jack wilborne and Sandra Cullen both filed uh for for
00:16:41
diver for diverse goodbye for divorce fing for divorce fing for divorce on you I would
00:16:50
not be married to you it's wild too cuz usually people in these like older stories and stuff that
00:16:58
you here you'll like at least one of them doesn't divor I want to St and you're thinking
00:17:05
it's going to be like oh they're going to try to work it out but this one's just like Pretty Cut dry they're both
00:17:09
just like nope well because Colin already wasn't treating Sandra very well at all no and I think Jacka and Jack
00:17:18
weren't happy so it was like I don't think I don't think any love was lost here I think it was just betrayal yes
00:17:24
big time which is not cool no it's like just get divorced that's the thing then you guys can be together right now
00:17:29
Priscilla immediately moved out of the house and she was put up by colen in a large apartment in a Fort Worth highrise
00:17:36
while Jack retained custody of the children wow Sandra also had no intention of making the divorce easy for
00:17:41
Colin in court she quote AC accused Colin of slapping her in public beating her in private until she had bruises
00:17:48
covering her face whoa yeah and then he does that [ __ ] yeah and then he does some other [ __ ] that you're like you're
00:17:56
just a violent man yeah yeah yeah she also accused him of extensive infidelity and neglect and claimed that was
00:18:04
justification for a large alimony and child support as well as full custody of their two kids which like go for it all
00:18:11
baby go for it all Sandra for everything Colin never challenged her for custody or even seemed to care that he
00:18:20
wasn't going to see his children anymore but the alabon the alabon was another matter entirely course fight kids but
00:18:28
really gross fight for the money that's really gross like shameful he's nasty the divorces were granted that summer
00:18:35
but Colin would spend the next 30 Years fighting Sandra in court over the financial settlement Jesus yeah now free
00:18:43
of their previous relationships though Priscilla and colen wasted no time formalizing their own relationship and
00:18:49
they got married on August 29th 1968 okay that date was doubly significant for cullin as it was the day
00:18:57
that his father Kenneth Davis died died on his wedding day oh leaving his entire
00:19:03
oil company or oil Empire to colen and and colen's two brothers damn at the time of Kenneth Davis's death his
00:19:10
company Ken Davis Industries International was earning roughly $300 million a year what the [ __ ] back then
00:19:20
today that would mean they were earning $2.5 billion per year yeah in a lifetime that's un
00:19:33
inconceivable oh my yeah you can't even get the word out you're like like I kept
00:19:38
thinking Unthinkable but I was like some something is more intense than that inconceivable conceivable but in a year
00:19:45
$2.5 billion I always think about that with like billionaires I'm like that's just like an my brain won't
00:19:53
conceive of that much money like even existing CU you can't mind having it yeah it's just wild to me like it just
00:20:02
feels like it's it's not real no and I think at some point like people that even have that money they don't even
00:20:08
can't conceive of it really conceive it yeah damn crazy but unbelievable in the years that followed Colin and his
00:20:14
brothers increased that Revenue to more than $1 billion do annually damn so they
00:20:19
were making even more like they were making crazy money like Unthinkable inconceivable money to use both of your
00:20:27
words damn but his one-third ownership made Cullen obviously one of the wealthiest men in Texas and unlike his
00:20:35
conservative father and brothers he didn't really see any good reason not to put that wealth to good use or his view
00:20:41
of good use he and pis Priscilla excuse me spent $6 million to build their new home Stonegate mansion stonate mansion
00:20:50
stonate mansion in Fort Worth the place had five bedrooms 11 bathrooms an indoor
00:20:58
door pool and this [ __ ] sent me a 2,000 square ft master bedroom that's a house that is literally bigger than my
00:21:07
house that is larger than my entire house house like 2,000 square ft for your bedroom why do you need that for a
00:21:18
bedroom I can't even picture that how what activities are you planning to undertake Lots in that bedroom uh
00:21:27
allegedly Lots went down there oh okay well so they needed the space yes but it was it was it was the
00:21:33
rumors rumors if you're a fan of Salt Lake City you'll get that but they also purchased a ton of artwork that was all
00:21:41
scattered throughout the house and collectively valued at close to $3 million back then so like a billions now
00:21:48
probably pretty soon after moving in this is this is a lot colen uh commissioned a 6X 8T oil painting of him

long box it probably has like this beautiful jewelry in it you open it and it's a [ __ ] necklace that spells out
00:24:15
rich [ __ ] in Diamond can you imagine it I'd be like what does this mean what does it mean what does it mean
00:24:24
I'm sure Priscilla was just like hell yeah yeah socking billions and billions you're like yep rich [ __ ] that's part
00:24:32
of my genome at this point so like let's go Dave and I were crying about this that is amazing yeah uh other purchases
00:24:41
included a Lear jet you know an apartment oh just a just a jet an apartment at the Waldorf Historia New
00:24:48
York and lots and lots and lots of European vacations holy [ __ ] now eventually the rather lavish and
00:24:55
decadent lifestyle that Colin and Priscilla were living living really would become common among Texas high
00:25:00
society and like I was saying serve as the basis for the soap oper Dallas makes sense but in the late 60s and early 70s
00:25:09
their displays of wealth at this time were still considered very go very go very go I love that word I do too among
00:25:15
the Old Guard of Dallas Fort Worth oil money they were all turning their [ __ ] noses up to that like what are
00:25:22
you doing with your rich [ __ ] necklace cuz that's cuz you know what their way of doing Rich Hush Hush is so like
00:25:30
Priscilla and cullins is so it is go and it's like so tacky just like right in your face and all these older money ones
00:25:39
are like the are like the gilmores you know [ __ ] where it's like I literally make Gilmore Girls
00:25:46
references later it's like they you know they're rich like you look at Emily and
00:25:51
Richard and you're like yeah you got money yeah but old money you know like it looks like that old money that's like
00:25:57
Just Like Old World kind of kind of decorating and [ __ ] exactly wa it's so funny because literally like the next
00:26:03
two sentences after that I wrote an an Emily Gil another thing I can always compare anything back to is Gilmore true
00:26:10
and I got that from you you did because you gave your love of Gilmore Girls um but yes so everybody was like yeah
00:26:16
you're being real go and most of the society women quietly resented having to welcome you know the one-time wife of a
00:26:22
used car salesman into the folds and they felt that Priscilla probably slept her way up to the top and you know made
00:26:28
her way up that social ladder by doing so which reminded me of Emily and the DAR ladies and more girls it's very much
00:26:36
when they in the movie or in the reboot yep yeah when they like [ __ ] all over that girl mhm and then Emily's like
00:26:43
here's the thing's like you're not going to get in like they're going to talk [ __ ] about you and then they're not
00:26:47
going to let you like yeah it's so true that but I'm I immediately saw that everybody's got to stop worrying about
00:26:53
everybody else yeah just [ __ ] off everybody just worry about your own [ __ ] live your own life you only have one
00:26:58
presumably you all have like these these women all have money it's like you're all living yeah so just shut the [ __ ] up
00:27:05
let the other person live their way talk I mean talk about it quietly like whatever you want to talk [ __ ] to each
00:27:10
other but like there's no reason to be like nasty no that's the thing you don't need to be nasty about anything it's
00:27:14
just it's not nice to be nasty worry about your own nose but they weren't alone these ladies eventually colen's
00:27:19
brother Bill actually ended up filing a lawsuit against him claiming that Colin had quote run up personal debts of at
00:27:25
least $16 million then how does that happen and was using Ken Davis's like the company's assets as collateral for
00:27:32
obtaining personal loans what the [ __ ] does he need loans for that's the other
00:27:37
thing I have no [ __ ] idea I think I think he was spending I mean yeah like clearly unfathomable amounts of money
00:27:47
now the suit was eventually settled and Bill actually bought his share out of the company but by that point his
00:27:53
relationship with Colin his brother was completely destroyed Beyond repair Dam now really never having been one for
00:28:00
working Priscilla instead filled her day spending money and becoming what somebody might say is a trophy wife a
00:28:06
symbol of Colin Davis's success and she was happy to be one yeah as long as she was fine with it at that at that point
00:28:12
at his request she completed her uh physical transformation by getting a boob job there you go which only made
00:28:18
her less welcome in the eyes of Dallas Fort Worth Society CU they were like fake tits never gives a [ __ ] about
00:28:24
people's tits I like [ __ ] if I could get a boob job I would get a boob job people's boobs
00:28:28
my boobs are my boobs shut up about them so one friend told Greg Brown she was known in Fort Worth but not socially
00:28:34
accepted because and this was a quote they all thought she was a [ __ ] jeez which is like really mean but it didn't
00:28:40
really seem like Priscilla was interested in trying to fit in with those women who shunned her rather than
00:28:45
you know try to integr her integrate herself into a group who never wanted her in the first place yeah [ __ ] that
00:28:50
she was like [ __ ] y'all I will I deal with that on the rag and don't try to be
00:28:54
friends with people who don't want to be friends with you man no it's not worth itth was like M I can just spend my days
00:28:59
planning vacations and decorating and redecorating my Mansion yeah there you go and she loved to plan for the one
00:29:05
social event of the year that she really did enjoy the annual Colonial Invitational golf tournament that was
00:29:10
like her favorite event of the year now while Colin liked having a beautiful wife on his arm that didn't keep him
00:29:18
from getting jealous whenever the Press paid more attention to Priscilla than they did to him and after a year or two
00:29:24
of marriage the adventure and excitement of the early days of their relationship
00:29:28
did begin to wear off and colen's less attractive qualiity shown brighter than they had when they first met uhoh and I
00:29:35
just want to give everybody a trigger warning here for domestic abuse um at first the abuse was verbal
00:29:41
and emotional much like what she went through with her previous husband but it didn't take long for the abuse with
00:29:46
colen to become physical one night at the apartment colen kept in Dallas he and PR uh Priscilla excuse me got into a
00:29:54
trivial argument that just became more and more heated over time and without warning he punched her in the face
00:30:01
several times breaking her nose oh [ __ ] him broke her nose are you kidding me no
00:30:09
like the [ __ ] is wrong with this guy you punch a woman in the face once breaking
00:30:14
her nose oh my God and then like multiple times and break her nose yeah he sounds like a and this is the same
00:30:20
guy who abandoned his children so this is not shocking no now sadly Priscilla was not the only one who suffered abuse
00:30:28
and I want to give another trigger warning here for domestic abuse and also animal abuse it's going to be quick cuz
00:30:33
I can't even deal uh Priscilla's daughter D moved in with her mother shortly after Priscilla had divorced
00:30:39
from Jack she was also a frequent Target for her stepfather's rage oh this makes
00:30:44
me so angry one night after de had gone to bed she was woken up in the Night by colen who walked her down back down to
00:30:51
the kitchen and berid her for forgetting to lock one of the doors before going to
00:30:56
bed what the [ __ ] is like this guy needs like he's on a power trip sounds like up
00:31:02
when he asked whether she knew why it was important to lock doors like he was very clearly being very P patronizing D
00:31:09
gave a flipping answer and she was just like I don't know so people don't steal your junk and that infuriated him to the
00:31:16
point that he hit her in the face my God so uh Priscilla heard her daughter scream and she ran down into the kitchen
00:31:23
carrying their newly acquired kitten in her arms and was still infuriated he grabbed the cat and slammed it on the
00:31:31
kitchen floor and did it over and over again until the cat passed away the that guy needs to be locked away he's a
00:31:37
[ __ ] animal he's an animal an animal that's animal like I almost cried just thinking about it I was wrri anavi and
00:31:44
then I literally went around to all my cats and pet them because I was like I can't imag so let me get this straight
00:31:49
you abandoned your children yep after being physically abusive to their mother after being physically abusive to their
00:31:54
mother you have punched your new wife in the the face several times breaking her
00:31:58
nose you have hit her daughter not even your biological daughter y in the face Y
00:32:05
and now you have killed a kitten Yep this man is what else is there this man is like what else is there oh you'll
00:32:14
see are you kidding me no oh years later in an interview with Annie Colin acknowledged this incident saying I
00:32:23
killed the cat I admit it it was a dumb thing to do but diad smarted off to me oh get so [ __ ] you little [ __ ] of a
00:32:30
man I shouldn't have killed the cat but it was the kid's fault for not locking the door kid smarted off to me Shut the
00:32:35
[ __ ] up so that made you kill a [ __ ] animal what the [ __ ] shut the [ __ ] up
00:32:39
Cullen this guy is a piece of garbage now those instances of domestic and animal abuse unfortunately did not
00:32:46
dissolve the relationship between Priscilla and Colin and she still tried her best to keep up outward appearances
00:32:52
in lie of acceptance into Texas High Society they took vacations and extended stays in places like Vegas and Palm
00:32:59
Springs and they actually started socializing with stars some being uh Kenny Rogers and his wife Margo and
00:33:06
Kenny and Margot both took a liking to Priscilla immediately they said they found her Charming and quote unquote
00:33:12
down home but Cullen was decidedly less well-received Margot Rogers recalled her
00:33:19
husband was kind of Shifty looking he had one of those looks where he looked out uh looked out one side of his eye
00:33:25
like she had his number she was something off here now despite her opinion on Colin Margo and Priscilla had
00:33:31
become close in the early 70s and maintained a a friendship throughout the years and later in an interview with
00:33:37
Greg Brown Margot commented on Colin and Priscilla's marriage saying she was kind
00:33:41
of disconnected from him and everything around her not aloof just observant now Patricia stuck with her
00:33:49
husband through the early 70s continuing to keep up the appearances at Social functions and events where she knew
00:33:55
there was going to be press coverage but by 1974 she just couldn't tolerate the abuse any longer but the problem was
00:34:03
everything they owned belonged to him just as in her previous marriage she had no real identity or income that wasn't
00:34:12
tied to her husband oh no and she worried that if she and her daughter D left they'd be destitute like they'd
00:34:18
have nothing now this is this is like beautiful seeing her suffering the Davis's longtime made Kora took
00:34:29
Priscilla aside and insisted to her that she take the $1,500 that she herself had
00:34:35
in savings that's all she had stop it and she was like I want you to take it and leave him for good because I see
00:34:41
what he's doing to you and I see what's going on here and like you've got to get
00:34:45
out of here what a selfless kind human being like holy [ __ ] wow now obviously and obviously it was that bad that this
00:34:53
woman is willing to give give her entire savings to be like you got to get out of
00:34:57
here you got to go and like she clearly cared for Priscilla and Priscilla's daughter so much now taking the savings
00:35:04
of somebody who had so less than she did and so little anyways was less than ideal but under the circumstances it was
00:35:11
really the only option that BR had so on July 30th 1974 the day that she turned 33 Priscilla took korus $1,500 and filed
00:35:21
for a divorce from col w wow now when Jasper Baker her first husband there abandoned her after the birth of their
00:35:28
daughter Priscilla was left with nothing and like I said earlier had to move back
00:35:32
to her mom's house in Dublin Texas when she left Jack wilborne in 1968 she also was left with little more than her
00:35:39
daughter and the clothes on her back and this time Priscilla was determined to end the marriage and come out ahead she
00:35:45
wasn't going to walk away from this with nothing no in her filing she accused Colin of multiple forms of abuse and
00:35:51
cruelty which was directed at both her and her daughter and the story she told the judge were very similar to the
00:35:58
stories that Sandra Davis had told in her divorce seems like this is his pattern so there's a pattern and that
00:36:04
did not earn him any fans in the courtroom as a result the judge ordered him to move out of the Mansion so
00:36:10
Priscilla could keep it and to pay her $2,500 a month for living expenses wow now Colin Davis was as we know
00:36:19
exceedingly wealthy $2500 for him he could sneeze and that would [ __ ] was a quarter to like anybody else just taking
00:36:25
a quarter out of your pocket legit so the stien for living expenses was not a problem for him at all but what was a
00:36:32
problem was that the judge had Frozen his assets pending a divorce settlement that they both agreed upon now was
00:36:38
somebody accustomed to spending large amounts of money whenever he [ __ ] felt like it that restriction to him
00:36:44
felt so unreasonable oh shut the [ __ ] up so in November of 1974 he petitioned the
00:36:49
judge to permit him to sell off nearly 45,000 shares of stock out of his Western Drill company and he quotes he
00:36:57
cited his reasons uh a national credit Crunch and short-term loans to various banks in the total of $14 million wow so
00:37:05
he was like I have all this tied up and like I can't like I need you to let me get some of it yeah which again why do
00:37:12
you have $4 million tied up in loans when you are a literal billionaire basally I don't get now judge Edon
00:37:19
refused the request and instead increased his monthly payments to Priscilla from $2500 to $3,000 he was
00:37:25
like you're not ressing me with the SOB stories here I know that you have access
00:37:29
to different money and so he increased the amount but the couple is back before a judge eats in the next month where
00:37:35
colen was ordered to pay Priscilla an additional $118,500 quote Advance on community property for trial expenses
00:37:44
jeez so he's just making it so that col has to pay off the ass which I love love
00:37:49
that's hilarious the court appearan is dragged on for the next two years with Priscilla or Colin asking for
00:37:53
postponements for one reason or another divorces incredibly messy and I can't imagine with this amount of money how
00:38:00
much Messier it would be and in the meantime Priscilla started dating uh former Texas Christian University
00:38:06
basketball star turned restaurant owner Stan far in February 1976 far moved into
00:38:12
the mansion and for the first time in a long time in Priscilla's life it felt like things were getting back to normal
00:38:19
for her her daughter D was almost 18 years old now she was living still at home and Andrea her other younger
00:38:25
daughter was coming to visit regularly and even the divorce settlement actually seemed to be going in the right
00:38:31
direction on August 2nd Priscilla and colen appeared again before the judge and this time Colin's monthly payments
00:38:37
were increased to $5,000 per month and he was ordered to pay Priscilla an additional
00:38:43
25,000 for accumulated bills and another 25,000 to cover legal expenses damn cuz
00:38:50
they were like you have money up the [ __ ] start paying it now after what felt like a victory in the courtroom
00:38:55
that day Priscilla and Stan went out to dinner at the old Swiss house with friends Bev Bass and Gus Bubba gavil to
00:39:01
celebrate cuz they were like why not Bubba I know buba it was a little after midnight when they returned home Stan
00:39:08
got out of the car to open the large iron gates and they made their way up the driveway that led to the house as
00:39:14
she fumbled in her purse to find the keys to the front door though Priscilla looked through the window and she
00:39:19
noticed that the lights on the security panel indicated that the front door had been opened since they left hours
00:39:25
earlier huh she figured maybe it was Andrea who was coming to stay with them for the evening or even maybe her
00:39:31
daughter D but she and so she Shrugged it off and just made their way into the house once inside Stan climbed the
00:39:37
stairs to head to the master bedroom and Priscilla just went to go into the kitchen to turn the lights off and that
00:39:43
was where she noticed what looked like a bloody handprint on the basement door oh
00:39:47
[ __ ] Priscilla took a few steps toward the basement but between the security panel and the hand print on the door
00:39:53
something was beginning to feel very wrong and she called out for stand instead after a few seconds with no
00:39:59
reply she decided to go to the bedroom to find her boyfriend but as she made her way toward the stairs she was
00:40:05
startled by a man dressed in all black wearing a woman's black wig who emerged from the laundry room on her right what
00:40:12
the [ __ ] as he emerged he greeted her saying hi oh right before shooting her in the stomach at close range holy [ __ ]
00:40:21
so some man dressed in all black wearing a black woman's wig this says like black
00:40:27
hair emerges from the laundry room says hi and shoots you in the stomach wow so alerted by the sound of the gun and
00:40:34
Priscilla's scream Stan rushed downstairs and found the door leading into the kitchen was locked so he
00:40:40
couldn't get in there without any warning though the Intruder shot through the door and when the door did open the
00:40:46
two men started struggling and during the struggle Stan was shot three more times oh no sensing that it might be her
00:40:53
only opportunity to flee though Priscilla forced her herself to stand up after being shot in the [ __ ] stomach
00:41:00
and managed to actually get out of the house through the sliding glass door that led out to a courtyard and once
00:41:05
outside she started running toward the road but the Intruder chased after her and caught up to her and started
00:41:12
dragging her back toward the house what the [ __ ] but luckily there was a split
00:41:17
second where he was startled by a sound and let go of Priscilla's arm which let her fall to the ground and when he went
00:41:24
to investigate the noise she scrambled to hide into the bushes nearby and then she heard voices coming from the
00:41:30
driveway and several more shots rang out so the commotion prompted her to run toward the uh Road and after making it
00:41:39
past the gate she ran to the nearest house and started ringing the doorbell over and over and she shouted to whoever
00:41:44
was on the other side my name is Priscilla Davis I live in the big house in the middle of the field off Hollen
00:41:49
I'm very W wounded cullin is up there killing my children he's killing everyone oh my God that just gave me
00:41:56
full chills I me too holy [ __ ] wild so the neighbors called an ambulance and Emergency Services did arrive a short
00:42:04
time later Priscilla was taken to the hospital to be treated for the gunshot wound to her stomach and there she would
00:42:10
learn that Stan didn't make it oh no he was killed and neither did her 12-year-old daughter Andrea her
00:42:17
12-year-old daughter who was just she didn't even live at the Manion she was just staying there for the night she was
00:42:22
found dead in the basement holy [ __ ] and Priscilla also learned that the commotion she had heard in the driveway
00:42:29
was her friends Bev Bass and Bubba gar uh gavl excuse me who had pulled up that to the house just as she slipped out
00:42:36
into the courtyard oh my God gavil had confronted the Intruder who shot him several times before fleeing the scene
00:42:43
he was in critical condition and he would survive the attack ultimately but he would be paralyzed for the rest of
00:42:49
his life are you kidding [ __ ] this is like devastating devastating so despite having been shot
00:42:56
in the stomach Priscilla Priscilla was still conscious and able to speak and she identified her attacker as her
00:43:03
ex-husband holy [ __ ] telling even on the ambulance ride there she was telling ambulance drivers he quote put on a
00:43:09
black wig and started shooting all my kids oh my God at 4:30 a.m. Fort Worth Police surrounded the home of Karen
00:43:16
Master a quote unquote friend with whom colen had been staying with and called inside demanding that he surrender his
00:43:23
only request was that he be allowed to dress before coming outside they should have said no they should have said no
00:43:28
but they consented and he was taken into custody without incident and when they searched the house and his car they
00:43:35
discovered several handguns hidden five in Karen's house and two in styrofoam uh
00:43:43
two in a styrofoam chest in the trunk of Colin's car so he had seven [ __ ] guns
00:43:48
just lying about immediately after his arrest Fort Worth officers were sent to guard the homes of Judge Joe Edson the
00:43:55
divorce judge judge there as well as the homes of Ronald Alman and Jerry Lofton who were the lawyers representing
00:44:01
Priscilla in the divorce damn you don't think of that that's like really scary your life is on the line to a certain
00:44:08
extent now back at the Mansion police started combing through the crime scene which one ambulance driver referred to
00:44:13
as like something out of an Alfred Hitchcock movie that's horrifying that tells you everything you need to know
00:44:19
truly horrifying there were two large pools of Blood on the floor leading from the kitchen to the foyer one where
00:44:25
Priscilla was shot and the other in the spot where Stan's body had fallen a large trail of blood LED from the
00:44:32
hallway to the kitchen where Stan's body had been dragged and dropped by the Killer and from the kitchen
00:44:38
investigators made their way to the basement where they found the body of Andrea wilborne in a small utility room
00:44:45
what the [ __ ] crime scene technicians noted that she hadn't suffered any physical trauma aside from a bullet that
00:44:51
had entered her upper chest and exited out her lower back oh my God later it would would be determined that Andrea
00:44:57
had been shot in the chest and just left to die in the basement while the killer
00:45:01
went upstairs to hide in the laundry room waiting for Priscilla she's 12 12 years old other than the obvious Carnage
00:45:09
there's no other word for it detectives concluded that nothing in the house had been stolen or otherwise Disturbed I
00:45:15
mean that tells you cuz it's his [ __ ] house yeah if anyone's walking into that
00:45:19
house and doing [ __ ] they're stealing [ __ ] yeah what other motive would there
00:45:23
be why else would you yeah exactly according to to detective CR Davis quote the house wasn't ransacked and nothing
00:45:29
was Disturbed except where the bullets broke things like that tells you now while Priscilla and Bubba garville were
00:45:35
in no shape to speak to the police after a certain point Priscilla's friend Bev Bass was and she corroborated what
00:45:42
Priscilla had managed to tell the police before being hospitalized now it's important to note that they had no
00:45:49
chance to talk after this had all happened so she is corroborating the story and I'm saying that for a reason
00:45:56
saying it because that's what Happ what she saw happen what she saw according to
00:46:00
Bev she planned to stay at the house that evening and she and gavil arrived shortly after Priscilla and Stan
00:46:05
according to Captain JW Tindle the young lady recognized this person as Davis and
00:46:10
called out his name oh at the same time the suspect wheeled and shot Mr gavil on
00:46:15
the side so she she recognized him and called him by name and that's before she's even spoken to Priscilla who at
00:46:23
that point had already told ambulance drivers it was so they're both they're both
00:46:29
saying it was Colin damn now uh bass she said she ran as soon as the shooting started and and was briefly pursued by
00:46:37
the attacker but he eventually fled as she made her way to a nearby convenience store where a security guard called
00:46:42
police holy [ __ ] but the fact that both of them are like yeah it was Colin we know him I mean they're not just pulling
00:46:49
that out of their ass no of course they're not and I don't know if if everybody's been listening but he's
00:46:54
proven himself to be a very violent and um scary human being absolutely and now a human being who is losing a lot of
00:47:04
money yeah and a his home you know technically now despite having been arrested on charges of murder and
00:47:10
attempted murder on August 4th Colin Davis was released on an $80,000 bond which of course he had no trouble paying
00:47:18
in his statement to a shocked group of reporters Justice of the Peace ww Matthews defended the bond saying it was
00:47:26
the amount recommended by the district attorney and I stayed with it cool when pressed he speculated this man probably
00:47:33
will never heard anybody again he was just drunk the police told me he was quite drunk and they say when he gets
00:47:38
drunk he gets really mad it's like yeah how comforting that he probably won't break into anybody's house in open fire
00:47:44
on five people that has to be the stupidest [ __ ] I have ever heard proba blow out of a person's [ __ ] face like
00:47:50
he was just drunk well he probably won't do it again people in this case need to
00:47:54
get so [ __ ] so that is why open your mouth and say words if those are going to be well you know he got drug he gets
00:48:00
mad he gets mad he punches his wife he gets mad he slaps his stepdaughter he gets mad he beats a kitten on the floor
00:48:08
until it dies y he just drunk maybe he won't get drunk and mad again we can all just kind of cross our fingers right a
00:48:15
week later while still recovering at Harris hospital Priscilla gave her formal statement to the assistant uh
00:48:20
district attorney Joe Shannon Jr in it she was very clear that despite the ATT Ed disguise she immediately recognized
00:48:27
the shooter as Colin Davis she said if you were sitting there and I was looking at you and you had on a wig I would
00:48:33
still be looking at your face I looked right at him and when Shannon asked whether it was possible that she was
00:48:39
mistaken Priscilla responded oh no I lived with him no I could spot Colin in a crowd three miles away yeah you know
00:48:46
your husband's face better than most face put on a stupid black wig it's not going to hide his [ __ ] face and if
00:48:53
you look at pictures of him when he was younger he's pretty like discernible like you
00:48:58
would be able to point that face out he doesn't just have like any old you know oil tycoon face like he looks I would be
00:49:04
able to point him out he looks like Colin Davis yeah wild and it's like you just put on a wig yeah now after two
00:49:12
weeks of Freedom Colin Davis was arrested a second time when the district attorney dismissed the previously filed
00:49:18
charges and refiled new ones this time for two counts of capital murder mhm now while the District Attorney's office was
00:49:25
vague about why they had amended the charges the court documents alleged that Cen had committed burglary when he
00:49:31
entered the home without permission and that he had explicitly violated judge eon's order prohibiting him from being
00:49:37
at the Home in Texas capital murder carries a mandatory sentence of either life in prison or death and the district
00:49:44
attorney indicated their intention to seek the death penalty in this case under no under the circumstances no bond
00:49:51
was issued and cullin was remanded to the custody of the Sheriff's Department pending a grand jury hearing which was
00:49:58
scheduled for late winter on February 15th 1977 a grand jury returned two indictments for capital murder for the
00:50:05
deaths of Stan farar and Andrea wil uh Andrea wilborne and two indictments for the attempted murder of Priscilla Davis
00:50:12
and Gus gavl setting cen's B Bond at $150,000 for the attempted murder counts and denying Bond on the actual okay I
00:50:21
was like can we deny bond for a minute is that cool it's also like why even set up a bond if you can't get on a bond on
00:50:28
the other chart kind of feels like a waste of time now in the weeks that followed the prosecution and defense
00:50:33
started interviewing prospective jurors for the trial but immediately realized due to the Press coverage of the case
00:50:40
and the notoriety of those involved jury selection was going to be more than an uphill battle in one case a man who
00:50:48
regularly serviced The Business Machines in several of colen's offices told the da I've kept I've kept up with the case
00:50:55
real close and I do not feel the man is guilty in any way cuz you service his [ __ ] machines and he says hi to you
00:51:01
probably like and it's like shut up you don't know anything about the interworks
00:51:05
you've heard nothing the people that were shot are sitting there saying I look this [ __ ] in the face and it was
00:51:10
Colin Davis and this guy who wasn't there and knows nothing about it he's like I don't know I don't think it was
00:51:16
him nice guy Services Mach I'm going to listen to the people who looked into his
00:51:19
face before they shot him that's the other thing I'm like dude he doesn't know your [ __ ] name no but like many
00:51:25
of the potential jurors in interviewed this man was disqualified for having formed a pre-trial opinion of colen
00:51:30
Davis but he was not alone many people had their opinions so on April 14th after nearly two months of an arduous
00:51:38
jury selection process the judge uh Tom cave had to declare a mistrial after learning that one of the jurors I
00:51:46
believe her name was Elizabeth Panky had discussed the case with a cooworker she'd been given permission to leave the
00:51:52
state to attend a funeral in early April and at that that time she also discussed
00:51:56
the case with friends on at least three occasions my girl that's literally like rule number one of Fight Club as you
00:52:03
don't talk about Cas that you're working on uh yeah so he was you know obviously
00:52:08
extremely reluctant to do so but he saw no alternative and dismissed all the jurors they just [ __ ] this case right
00:52:16
up damn the problem for the da was that while they knew it would have been impossible to find a jury that hadn't
00:52:21
heard about the case they didn't expect that it would be so ult to find a jury pool that hadn't already made up their
00:52:28
mind about the matter of Colin's guilt damn and this was due in part to the fact that many people found it
00:52:35
impossible to imagine that somebody so prominent and Wealthy could commit murder much less the murder of a child
00:52:42
I'm sorry uh have you ever read anything have you ever like turned on the television that happen so much you watch
00:52:49
the news so much in a weird way this case kind of reminds me of the OJ simps in case got it's got certain parallels I
00:52:58
feel now there were those people who were like no I just can't imagine that a rich man would kill someone that's crazy
00:53:05
but there were also people who were just worried about their own wallets being affected by the outcome of the trial
00:53:11
there were countless influential people who stood to lose considerable sums of money oh this is so dirty it's so
00:53:18
disgusting if he had been found guilty they would have lost everything in total he owed nearly $6 million in standing
00:53:25
loans at every major Bank in the in the Dallas Fort Worth area wow so so he gets
00:53:32
benefits from being a dirt bag who can't pay his debts yeah because he that seems
00:53:39
right money and while his being refused Bond had already hurt their chances of being paid his being found guilty would
00:53:45
mean that they were unlikely to ever get their money back and that was their main
00:53:49
concern money over the life of a 12-year-old and he would have killed everyone in that house if he if he was
00:53:56
able to before he got Disturbed now equally challenging for the prosecution were the rumors about Priscilla that had
00:54:02
started spreading almost immediately after cen's arrest cen's defense team led by the rather theatrical Richard
00:54:11
racehorse Hines you heard that right this man's nickname is racehorse I don't want to know anything else about that
00:54:18
better than stinky but wild stiny but real wild Texas is a wild Place sure is is but yeah racehorse Hines there had
00:54:28
filed several motions to access witness testimony and other materials that they believe portrayed prisilla in a negative
00:54:34
light I love that this woman got shot in her own home and her child was murdered
00:54:38
in her home and they're like you know what's a great way to go about this we should just make sure that she looks
00:54:43
like a dumb [ __ ] campaign yeah that's a great idea the person who got shot in Lost Child she was shot in the stomach
00:54:51
lost her child punched in the face by this man punched in the face by this man lost an animal because this man beat it
00:54:57
but but let's make her look like an [ __ ] yeah let's let's definitely do that now nothing sometimes it's like you
00:55:02
look at these things and you're like the justice system has so much [ __ ] work to do oh it's so flawed and especially
00:55:07
cuz [ __ ] like this is like really I think especially when it comes to wealthy people in the justice system now
00:55:13
nothing came of their efforts in court really of you know trying to get the witness testimony and all that but they
00:55:18
were very public about these attempts and that was enough to plant seeds in the excuse me seeds of doubt in the
00:55:24
minds of the public of course cuz nobody ever wants to look actually at like facts it's just whatever sounds the most
00:55:30
salacious exactly and there were stories that not while they weren't exactly slanderous they didn't paint Priscilla
00:55:37
in a good light they painted her in a negative light her own investigators had alleged that there was a contract on her
00:55:42
life quote and when she did go out usually late at night and always with close friends Priscilla wore a
00:55:47
silverplated 32 strapped to a customade holster on her right boot do it's like clearly she was afraid of this man she's
00:55:54
going out with a [ __ ] holster yeah now despite being the victim though the rumors in innuendo encouraged by the
00:56:00
defense made her seem like the one who was guilty which I don't even know how you could spend that that's the thing
00:56:06
like my God and before get it together this poor woman before the trial began Priscilla received a call from the wife
00:56:13
of a quote unquote prominent industrialist who had business dealings with Colin and this wife asked her to
00:56:20
quote unquote let Colin off the hook I know he punched you in the face and broke your nose and murdered your kitten
00:56:25
in front of you after abusing your child let him off the hook let him off the hook you have to be a Down Dirty empty
00:56:37
pathetic [ __ ] to call someone up and ask that like what a bunch of shameful [ __ ] get the bells ready let's go down
00:56:45
the street all y'all are the most shameful of [ __ ] I have ever heard it's Insanity to pick up the phone and call a
00:56:55
woman who all of those things happen to because it's going to affect your husband's being mother whose 12-year-old
00:57:01
daughter was murdered but your business dealings are the most important off the hook oh my goodness so uh Priscilla was
00:57:08
perplexed assuming that the woman was talking about the divorce settlement but and of course you know it didn't occur
00:57:14
to her that this woman was talking about the murder of it all let him walk free later she recalled she pointed out that
00:57:20
I had gotten a lot of nice things that I never had before she said how everyone knew Colin was a weak person but he
00:57:25
wasn't the only person in the world with money what the [ __ ] now finally the color Empty Soul oh yeah she's going to
00:57:33
double down she got to the point and said Priscilla I think the best thing for you would be to move out of town and
00:57:38
change your name honestly [ __ ] like that's a [ __ ] right there you're a [ __ ]
00:57:44
the best thing for oh the best thing for you would be to move if I got that [ __ ] phone call after all of that oh
00:57:51
honey now Priscilla later commented on that say on that call saying I was dumbstruck all I could think to say was
00:57:58
we all have to answer to God damn I would say much worse I can't believe after everything she had gone through
00:58:06
this is what she's dealing with are these pieces of [ __ ] heinous but by summer the trial was officially moved to
00:58:14
Amar Amarillo Texas I think so yeah yeah and a pre and pre-trial hearings uh began quietly in June once again the
00:58:21
prosecution and defense found themselves in a struggle though to find mutually agreeable jurors the biggest issue was
00:58:27
still the significant coverage of that the trial had received but there was also the matter of defense attorney
00:58:33
Richard Haynes who was a local celebrity racehorse there oh racehorse several jurors had become familiar with him from
00:58:41
other cases in press C coverage and they kind of assumed this like kind familiarity with him and quote unquote
00:58:48
insisted upon calling him racehorse which implied a huge degree of bias that would influence the entire
00:58:57
outcome of this trial I don't what's happening like this is a really gross situation all around hey reource how's
00:59:06
the murder trial going this really tests your faith in humanity it really does have all of this after nearly two more
00:59:13
months a jury had finally been selected apparently less uh prospective jury members called this man resource and
00:59:20
Colin Davis's capital murder Tri trial finally began on August 2 1977 in his opening statement to the
00:59:27
jury district attorney Tim Curry with the shop Tim Curry let out the prosecution simple case he said Colin
00:59:34
Davis learned of a setback in his divorce proceedings then went that night to the mansion he and his estranged wife
00:59:40
Priscilla once shared with the intent to kill her he stopped short of citing a clear motive but noted the fact that the
00:59:46
murders were committed literal hours after a divorce hearing where the amount of alimony was raised and the fact that
00:59:53
Colin and Priscilla's relationship had just deteriorated to the point of pure vital oh pure vitri the fact that it
01:00:01
happened hours after I'm like that's after to know that's pure motive hours pure motive not even days a couple of
01:00:10
hours they went to dinner and then that happened that's the most solid motive ever truly and again two people
01:00:19
recognized him who had no time to get any kind of story straight but told the exact same story now Priscilla was among
01:00:25
the first witnesses to take the stand and she spent nearly six hours answering Curry's questions and giving her
01:00:31
detailed account of the attack she really didn't say anything that she hadn't already stated in her statement
01:00:36
given to the police and to the district attorney's office but that didn't stop the defense from repeatedly objecting to
01:00:44
her testimony claiming among other things that she quote ignored the rules of the court and was referring to
01:00:49
hearsay evidence shut up like this is all in her statement in his cross-examination hes kept Priscilla on
01:00:55
the stand for days several days he asked questions about her use of Percodan which she had been prescribed for
01:01:02
chronic pain from an ankle injury and um continued to get prescribed after she got you know shot in the stomach yeah
01:01:09
cuz you know that he asked about her sexual history and relationships with other men what the [ __ ] does that have
01:01:14
to do with anything they're trying to say she's a gold digger yeah and that she lives a dangerous life where another
01:01:19
man could have done this to her God and even implied that she and quote Beverly bass had conc Ed their story to keep the
01:01:25
real killer from coming after them and to help Priscilla get Cullen's millions in the divorce wow wild wow so we're
01:01:33
just like making up a story about who killed my child yep yeah yeah in questioning her morality hannes was
01:01:40
clearly trying to undermine the jury and Public's trust in prisilla and it was working some in Texas High Society like
01:01:46
I said simply didn't like what prisilla represented at all a colleague of cullins told a reporter she's trash
01:01:53
plain trash her daughter was killed the jealousy who cares if she was trash or not and who
01:02:00
are you to claim who's trash and who isn't give me a lineup telling you jealousy jealousy others simply relied
01:02:08
on the rumor mill for information there was talk of quote orgies and two-way mirrors and movie cameras hidden in the
01:02:14
ceiling above the master bedroom's double queen-sized bed some suggested the basement was full of SNM accessories
01:02:21
when in fact it was just full of storage and also who who the [ __ ] cares if it
01:02:25
was even though it wasn't like it's clearly not right who the [ __ ] cares what she's into like [ __ ] off that what
01:02:32
does that have to do with a 12-year-old getting murdered exactly what like what like actually nothing even happened in
01:02:39
the bedroom upstairs so why are we even talking about it no that's ridiculous but unfortunately Priscilla did somewhat
01:02:44
play into the kind of like salacious rumors on occasion granting interviews with the Press where she kind of went
01:02:51
out of her way to Coti asly avoid answering direct question questions about her sex life and the rumors
01:02:56
surrounding it here's the thing though it's like she yeah she probably like leaned in a little bit but it's also
01:03:02
like what the [ __ ] she's not doing anything wrong well and she's going through a ton of trauma that could be
01:03:07
some kind of trauma response yeah and she's not do that has nothing to do with her child her boyfriend and her friend
01:03:15
all being shot and her being shot yeah but but like we're not going to concentrate on the fact that Cullen was
01:03:22
a [ __ ] animal in that house and was like nightmareish inducing no and like literally slammed a kitten on the ground
01:03:30
until it died no blame it on the woman like we're not going to talk about how [ __ ] up you have to be to do that
01:03:35
Blame It On The Woman Like This is Wild but they're like she [ __ ] sometimes exactly and it's like oh okay like she's
01:03:43
she she wasn't Rich before she met she punches women and children in the face and kills animals but okay yeah exactly
01:03:50
but you know like she she has tits so there that so we ha [ __ ] you should all be ashamed of yourselves they absolutely
01:03:59
should be but something tells me that they were not no of course not now when race horse Hines there was finally given
01:04:04
the opportunity to give his opening statement his strategy was made clear the Intruder had entered the house to
01:04:10
kill Stan not Priscilla he told the jury with absolutely no [ __ ] basis Mr far was a target of those asants because of
01:04:18
his business connections with those other people referring to Priscilla Andrea and Gabriel as quote accidental
01:04:25
victims racehorse insisted that it was an unpaid drug dealer who had gone into the house to kill Stan and simply
01:04:32
executed the others cuz they were there what so didn't steal anything while they were
01:04:39
there no no of course absolutely not and when Priscilla ran outside um this drug
01:04:47
dealer who was not after Priscilla chased after her and tried to drag her back in the house yeah okay and didn't
01:04:53
take anything to collect take anything yeah for money going in a $6 million mansion with $3 million worth of
01:05:03
art that off the base boom just Baseline $3 million worth of [ __ ] art on the walls never mind everything else in that
01:05:10
place and like diamonds jewelry doesn't even look for [ __ ] no it didn't doesn't even break
01:05:16
anything doesn't even look around the bullets didn't even take I mean he didn't even take a [ __ ] Coke out of
01:05:22
the refrigerator real nothing that makes sense yeah yep collect payment yeah absolutely makes
01:05:29
sense wild the defense had zero zero evidence of Stan being a drug user or of owing anyone money with drugs thing it's
01:05:37
like yeah let's definitely just slander this dead man who was murdered that night trying to see his like the people
01:05:44
he cared about literally zero evidence but Hayes still called several witnesses who claim to have seen Stan associating
01:05:50
with drug dealers okay well you know not how is that not hearsay exactly I I'm hearsay
01:05:58
is such a confusing that's the thing that doesn't make anything like I saw him be a be naughty once and it's like
01:06:06
what no what the [ __ ] you didn't I don't like you know we do have actual record
01:06:10
of Cullen being a [ __ ] animal there's a there's a literal record of that that's why the divorce proceed several
01:06:17
record we're going so well for Priscilla because he had done the exact same [ __ ]
01:06:20
to his last wife exactly he has a clear pattern abive piece of [ __ ] who clearly was
01:06:27
escalating his violence like he's abusive to his first wife he has an affair abandons his kids doesn't give a
01:06:34
[ __ ] about them just say about the money marries the new wife starts abusing her
01:06:38
too abusing her child killing animals and now he now he's mad because he's got to lose more money and that's
01:06:46
the other thing that you can point to this [ __ ] was still in court with Sandra fighting over money yeah
01:06:51
he's upset about losing money it's clear as dayly what the [ __ ] y'all but in his cross examination of
01:07:00
Priscilla all Haynes needed to do was question stands moral character and imply drug use and the jury's
01:07:05
imaginations let that do the rest that prejudices the jury I don't understand how that's allowed I don't either I
01:07:11
don't at all other Witnesses for the defense included Karen Masters who that's um where Cullen was yeah the
01:07:18
quote unquote friend they were more than friends clearly she claimed that Colin was in bed next to her at the time of
01:07:23
The Killing friends totally and uh the other witness for the defense was the owner of a small Fort Worth Nursery who
01:07:30
claimed that he had sneaked onto the property on the night of the murders according to the nursery owner he had
01:07:37
gone to the house to reclaim some plants that hadn't been paid for I'm sorry in the night y totally they send you in the
01:07:44
night to go repo plants no he did he was repoing his own PL hell yeah just go repo some plants on never heard of
01:07:50
repoing plants this makes absolute sense but he said he saw the Killer and it wasn't Colin Davis oh let's
01:07:56
believe this guy I believe him like the rumors and innuendos surrounding the trial it never seemed to occur to anyone
01:08:02
to question whether those statements were actually true no take it a face value for instance calling being cullin
01:08:07
being in bed beside Masters on the night of the murder seems like it would be a good Alibi uh but that information was
01:08:13
noticeably absent from her statement to police given that same night and in never ever came up in subsequent police
01:08:21
interviews yeah she just forgot you know it happened that at the trial she remembered that yeah now multiple
01:08:28
interviews with the police now that I think about it he was asleep in bed next to me yeah right next to me totally and
01:08:34
similarly the claims from the nursery owner would also have gone a long way towards clearing Cullen's name but uh
01:08:40
this was the first time anyone was hearing that information yeah it's hard to find people who reapo plants in the
01:08:45
middle of the night of course they they stay they stay real chill of course fly under the radar not everyone was
01:08:51
impressed with Hayes's tactics and aate statement to reporters Priscilla's former boyfriend WT Ruffner who had also
01:08:58
been slandered by Hayes in the in the trial which like what was the point of that refuted nearly everything Haynes
01:09:04
had implied during the trial to that point he told the Press Mr Haynes has brought drugs whiskey and sex everything
01:09:10
else into this case what the hell does that have to do with a 12-year-old girl being murdered by someone that's
01:09:14
literally what we were just saying like you're the only person to say that so far Ruffner had made the news several
01:09:20
months earlier after an arrest for cocaine and weapons possession which Haynes was able to use to his advantage
01:09:26
in the courtroom associating Priscilla with Ruffner to further undermine her character oh could have been your other
01:09:32
boyfriend who you know is dealing with cocaine charges well and also it's like I love that we are just focusing on
01:09:39
making Priscilla look like a bad person here and it's like how what yeah like it's wellestablished
01:09:47
that is [ __ ] monster he's an animal mhm and I know that's your job I real realiz that that that's the whole job
01:09:55
like nobody needs to tell me like I understand that that's the job it's infuriating and it's infuriating to look
01:10:00
at a mother who has lost her child to murder and sit there and make her look like she brought this all on herself
01:10:07
yeah that takes like that's [ __ ] up and I don't understand how you sleep at night that takes a special kind of
01:10:11
person to look into the eyes someone who lost their boyfriend and their 12 their
01:10:16
12-year-old child and their one of their good friends was paralyzed and basically
01:10:19
say you kind of did this to yourself didn't you like that's [ __ ] wow I don't know how you do that but after
01:10:26
nearly four months of witness testimony final arguments began on November 16th 1977 in his 95 minute closing statement
01:10:34
damn which like go off King assistant district attorney tly Wilson summarized their belief that after being uh
01:10:40
becoming enraged by enraged by yet another Divorce Court ruling in Priscilla's favor Cullen Davis dawned an
01:10:46
obvious disguise snuck into the home where he killed Stan far and his stepdaughter Andrea wilborne and
01:10:52
attempted to kill Priscilla and Gus gavil they also reminded the jury that both Priscilla gavil and Bev Bass had
01:11:00
all positively identified colen as the Sho I love that that just means nothing to these people because they're like
01:11:06
it's just meaning nothing they don't care they they went into this all pre with preconceived notions as for colen's
01:11:13
supposed Alibi Wilson pointed out that Karen Mar's excuse me Masters had failed to mention it to the police in her
01:11:20
statement and even on the stand seemed uncertain as to whether Colin was in bed at the time of the murders he said she
01:11:27
asked him on four different occasions when he got in after she found out about the murder so I think we have to
01:11:34
conclude that Karen Master knows herself that Thomas Cullen Davis was not at her
01:11:38
house at the time of those murders that they at the time those murders were committed [ __ ] Karen what the [ __ ]
01:11:44
wrong with you too no he was in bed with me and then she was like I had to ask him a few times when he got back after
01:11:50
imagine protecting a man who beats women Mur kittens imagine being that person noon like imagine that being who you go
01:12:00
down as Karen Karen imagine Ken can you imagine it Karen cuz that's how you go down here mhm now in his nearly 3-hour
01:12:09
closing statement Haynes again went after Priscilla's character telling the jury Priscilla Davis is the machelon
01:12:15
influence behind this whole thing right what right according to the uh to the defense Priscilla had conspir fired with
01:12:24
gavel and bass to frame colen for the murder in order to access his vast Fortune oh so he was just fine being
01:12:29
paralyzed for life and again I don't understand saying that she did this to access his vast fortune 3 hours before
01:12:38
this happened she had access to it she would why the [ __ ] would she have gone and made this all messy when she was
01:12:45
getting exactly what she W wanted and two deserved like the judge was on her side he was giving her the up and up
01:12:52
every time if this jury hadn't been from this community any other jury would have
01:12:57
been like what the [ __ ] yeah they' be like that doesn't make any sense that arent sucks that literally doesn't make
01:13:02
sense but he continued Miss bass is one of a series of young girls in Mrs Davis's history who has been corrupted
01:13:08
by the drugs and sex at the Mansion since Davis moved out and divorce proceedings began in 1974 I feel sorry
01:13:15
for Bubba gavil I can understand how he got into this I have no malice toward him except that he came into the
01:13:21
courtroom raised his hand to God and he lied and I do not forgive him for it I don't [ __ ] forgive you you piece of
01:13:27
[ __ ] you're standing there lying out of your [ __ ] face get your theatrics out
01:13:32
of here you're going to get yours my friend now one would think that the case against Colin Davis was a strong one
01:13:39
literally the strongest he had the clearest motive of probably anyone I've ever seen yeah a questionable Alibi at
01:13:46
best very questionable and there were at least three eyewitnesses who not only identified him as the killer but also
01:13:54
corroborated one another's statements without being able to even speak to each other at the time that their statements
01:14:00
were given because they had all been shot the defense had little more than slanderous Rumors in innuendo that at
01:14:07
best suggested the victims were maybe people of poor moral character so everyone was like okay a guilty verdict
01:14:14
seems like a foregone conclusion yeah after deliberating for two days the jury returned with an aqu quiddle on all
01:14:22
charges every single charge there were four I'm sorry what the wildest thing is um they acquitted this [ __ ] no
01:14:35
no no the wildest thing is that um I regret to inform you it gets worse it gets worse I am without flabbergasted thought
01:14:47
flabbergasted just erased itself no when I got to that point I was like no I was like wait does acquitted
01:14:54
not mean what I thought I I was worried that something like something to that happened because you said something
01:15:02
about an A&E documentary where he talked and I was like oh that [ __ ] is still talking acquitted on all counts yeah
01:15:12
just wait though cuz we're not done we're not done skip hollandsworth of the New York Times wrote the jury had
01:15:20
actually believed the theory that Priscilla and Beverly had conspired w to frame Cen even though they told
01:15:24
different people that he was the killer before they had the chance to compare stories now this
01:15:32
jury whoa oh God when they were later interviewed regarding the verdict jury members gave a variety of flimsy reasons
01:15:40
for the acquit because uh they didn't have one standup reason one juror told reporters there were too many unanswered
01:15:46
questions in my mind I can't sentence a person to death until I know he's guilty what unanswered question did you
01:15:53
have yeah can you is is the one answer unanswered question in the room with us right now can you point at it identify
01:16:00
it because I what are you talking about the public on the uned question what is it the public on the other hand did not
01:16:07
seem uh surprised by the verdict one resident told reporters no it didn't surprise me money does so many different
01:16:14
things I mean that's that is truth it shouldn't surprise me yeah but holy [ __ ]
01:16:19
another man who lived near the crime scene echoed the uh the sentiments saying oh there's no doubt that his
01:16:24
wealth helped him get off and the length of the trial helped him because those jurors were getting tired a few days
01:16:30
later at a victory party thrown by Colin Davis a victory party an attende attendee of the party put it more
01:16:39
succinctly rich men don't kill their wives rich men where do you live kill where do you live what what [ __ ]
01:16:49
alternate universe Planet are you living on where rich men don't kill their wives
01:16:54

01:17:01
[ __ ] time that's some backwards lwoods [ __ ] of happy people don't just shoot their husbands that their wise who
01:17:11
said I could name you about 6 billion [ __ ] instances where rich men do are you the person who said that who are you

01:17:35
[ __ ] you rich men don't kill their wife what wow what that's someone controlled
01:17:42
by a rich man what that person is or a rich rich man not share exactly now following the trial things more or less
01:17:50
went back to the way that they were before the murder oh good Colin and his new girlfriend Karen there continued oh
01:17:55
wait I thought they were friends they became more than friends to love us yes yes they continued attending Society
01:18:01
parties and events and he went back to his position as the head of Ken Davis Industries oh good I'm glad everybody uh

faked photographs supposedly showing judge eatson covered in blood and stuffed into the trunk of a car how hard
01:19:13
they went enjoy that uh when the agent showed call in the photos he acknowledged that they had done as he
01:19:19

01:19:57
is an FBI agent he's talking about this like it's a literal a literal Hitman it's an FBI agent undercover he
01:20:04
sheepishly admitted that he had been tricked by yet another of his ex-wife's schemes given the amount of damning
01:20:13
evidence against him the story was [ __ ] Preposterous and implausible I am without words get ready cuz in
01:20:21
November of 1979 that jury returned a verdict of not guilty and Colin was yet again
01:20:30
acquitted I on tape with an FBI agent saying that he need that this FBI agent whom he thought was a [ __ ] Hitman
