00:00:17
(tense music) - He has absolutely no idea why the police want to talk to him. - [Vivica] Observing the signs.
00:00:28
- I think when he is brought into the interview room he's quite a cocky character.
00:00:31
The fact there's been a sudden shift in emotion. These are all leakage signals and red flags.
00:00:36
- [Vivica] Detecting changing stories. - Marvin, just spinning outta control here.
00:00:49
- [Vivica] Spotting when to hold back. - He describes it almost as a scene from a Shakespeare play.
00:00:57
- He wants one last kiss before she reaches out and touches the face of God. - [Vivica] And when to close in.
00:01:06
- Marvin, stop. I know you're lying. - I'm Vivica A. Fox. And I'm about to take you on a journey
00:01:19
to uncover the secrets of the interrogation room. As an award-winning actress, I know how to play a part
00:01:26
and convince audiences I'm someone else. In the interrogation room, a suspect must play the role of their life
00:01:33
to convince detectives of their innocence if they wanna make it out of that room with their freedom.
00:01:39
- [Darren] The game's up. They never ask a question they don't have the answer for.
00:01:43
(tense music) - [Vivica] Wednesday, January 24th, 2018. In Jacksonville, Florida,
00:01:58
46-year-old Marvin Williams has been arrested. Hungry and agitated, he complains about missing lunch
00:02:04
and demands to know why he's been brought in. - [Vivica] Two days earlier, Jacksonville police received a call
00:02:23
asking for a welfare check to be carried out on 61-year-old local hairdresser,
00:02:28
Cassandra Valentin. (sirens wail) - A check of the residence revealed that the victim,
00:02:33
Cassandra Valentin, Black, female, was deceased inside. - [Vivica] Police arrived at a gruesome scene
00:02:40
and found Cassandra dead, lying in a pool of blood. She had a broken knife in her neck.
00:02:47
Cassandra shared her home with fiancé Marvin Williams. (somber music) - Marvin can't be located.
00:03:07
The police assume he's gone into hiding and might be responsible for the murder.
00:03:11
A warrant is issued for his arrest and an online appeal is made for information of his whereabouts.
00:03:18
But two days later, he's found, out in the open, at work, not even hiding at all.
00:03:25
But the police get a further surprise. When they approach, Marvin tries to run away.
00:03:31
Marvin's behavior is confusing. Is he guilty or innocent? Hopefully time in the interrogation room will tell.
00:03:45
(door unlocking) (door squeaks) - So, Williams walks into a police station. He gets taken into an interview room.
00:04:00
He has absolutely no idea why the police want to talk to him. No idea whatso... He doesn't know why he's there.
00:04:25
- [Ciolino] So you always want to establish the fact that they have at least a primary education,
00:04:29
that they could read and write basic English, and that they understand everything
00:04:34
that's being said to them right now, in the moment. - [Vivica] With the suspect in the interrogation room,
00:05:01
this investigation begins as most murder investigations routinely begin: with the focus on the suspect's background,
00:05:09
his close friends and family. - [Maleary] Officers will always talk to the next of kin, the nearest relative.
00:05:16
Those people that have got vital information to establish why there has been a murder,
00:05:23
why there's been a homicide. They could hold the key to a case, especially if there has been history of domestic violence.
00:05:32
- [Vivica] Marvin does have a violent past. He spent time in prison for armed robbery
00:05:38
and domestic battery against Cassandra, his on/off girlfriend for the past five years.
00:05:44
However, in more recent times, Cassandra was convinced that he'd changed, and had agreed to marry him.
00:05:51
- You don't wanna focus too quickly on a family member or a significant other, okay?
00:05:55
Because occasionally there'd be somebody else who had motive to kill them that you're unaware of at that moment.
00:06:13
- [Ciolino] Everybody in the world's looking for Marvin. Everyone in town knows why he's there.
00:06:17
But Marvin apparently doesn't know why he is there. He's like, I have no idea. What's the problem?
00:06:23
- [Vivica] But if Marvin really had no idea why the police were looking for him,
00:06:26
why did he run? - [Ciolino] From law enforcement perspective, if you're innocent, you're not running away from the police.
00:06:45
From Marvin's perspective is, "Hey, I'm on probation. "I don't want to get grabbed by any cops."
00:06:50
So we call that one a draw. You have a girlfriend here? - [Darren] I think when he's brought into the interview room,
00:07:07
he's quite a cocky character. He's no stranger to being arrested or prison. So, just in terms of his posture,
00:07:14
the way he was sat, he stretches himself out on the chair as best he can. And again, that's quite an arrogant way to behave
00:07:21
in a police station when you're suspected of a crime. So I think right from the outset,
00:07:25
you've got somebody that's kind of not gonna be really compliant with the officers.
00:07:44
- The police believe Marvin Williams could be responsible for the brutal murder of his fiancée,
00:07:49
Cassandra Valentin. But Williams hasn't seen her for three days, and appears to be unaware she is dead.
00:07:56
Could police have the wrong man? - [Ciolino] You want to be careful before you marry yourself to
00:08:04
that person as the subject of your investigation. 'Cause you could be wrong, and we see a lot of wrongful convictions
00:08:09
in the United States. - [Vivica] Coming up, Marvin and Cassandra's relationship
00:08:16
is put under the microscope. - I think Williams fits into the stereotype of a typical abuser.
00:08:23
- [Vivica] And Detective Zehler drops a bombshell. - January, 2018. In Jacksonville, Florida, detectives are investigating
00:08:41
the brutal murder of Cassandra Valentin. Marvin Williams, her fiancé, is in police custody,
00:08:49
but seems completely unaware that Cassandra is dead. - [Vivica] Why would Marvin storm out
00:09:38
over an argument about football, and disappear for a week or two? What does this say about his relationship with his fiancée?
00:09:47
- [Lee] I believe that there was a mutual attraction between Cassandra and Williams,
00:09:53
because if you look at the age differential, he was 15 years younger than her.
00:09:57
Batterers that are younger men pursue much older women because, believe it or not,
00:10:03
some are looking for a mother figure, they're looking for the lost mother in their lives.
00:10:09
They're looking for a woman who will protect and care and nurture for them. He's someone who just came outta prison.
00:10:15
Most inmates seeking re-entry do not have the resources for housing, food, or shelter.
00:10:21
Well, who does? Someone who's established, someone who has a place to live, someone who has a job,
00:10:26
and someone who can put bread on the table. Even if they're 15 years older than you,
00:10:31
what a perfect setup. And she, in turn, may have had a, I guess, a psychological dependency on him.
00:10:40
I think he made her feel young again. She was 61, and she probably felt alive.
00:10:47
You know, the expression 'how Stella got her groove back'. It could have been something along those lines.
00:10:54
So they kind of mutually fed into each other's needs at that time. - [Vivica] So far, Marvin doesn't seem cagey
00:11:01
or careful with his answers. If he was guilty of Cassandra's murder, would he be so quick to reveal
00:11:08
that they'd had an argument and he stormed off. But if he knows nothing of her fate,
00:11:12
why isn't he more curious about Detective Zehler's line of questioning? - [Maleary] The officer's asking lots of questions
00:11:20
around the relationship between him and Cassandra. At no point does Williams say,
00:11:26
"Why are you asking me these questions about Cassandra? "What's the problem? What's the issue?
00:11:30
"Why am I here? What's it got to do with Cassandra? "What's got to do with me?"
00:11:34
He never inquires about the welfare of this person that he proclaims to love. - [Lee] It also reveals something about his character
00:11:42
as one of indifference, as one who doesn't care, as one who's not concerned about his intimate partner
00:11:50
whom he purportedly had not seen since Sunday evening. There's something wrong with that picture right away.
00:11:56
- [Vivica] The police play along for now, but they suspect the worst. They know Marvin has had a long history
00:12:04
of violent and manipulative behavior. some of it directed towards Cassandra. - [Lee] I think Williams fits into the stereotype
00:12:13
of a typical abuser in that, number one, he exhibits a lot of the dimensions that we find on the power and control wheel.
00:12:22
The power-control field talks about things like using male privilege. It talks about things like isolation.
00:12:28
It talks about sexual abuse. It talks about physical abuse. But in terms of isolation,
00:12:34
let's take that one concept, for instance, how she was isolated from her parents and her family
00:12:40
and her friends because of him. The record suggests that some of her sisters and cousins
00:12:47
would not go near her when he was around because they sensed something about him
00:12:52
that just wasn't right. I think one of her family members described him as pure evil.
00:13:12
- [Lee] So because of how violence works in relationships, if the offender or the batterer can isolate his victim,
00:13:19
that's the perfect segue towards power and control and doing what he wants to do to her
00:13:23
whenever he wants to. - [Vivica] Detective Zehler decides to narrow in on Marvin's argument with Cassandra
00:13:30
and how it might have escalated. - [Vivica] Marvin has suddenly changed his story.
00:14:00
The argument wasn't about football. It was about his past violence towards Cassandra,
00:14:06
something for which he had served time in prison in the past. - He objects to her "catching a major attitude".
00:14:14
Well, to me that suggests that he wants to exert control over what she can talk about
00:14:20
and when she can talk about it. In other words, she's not free to discuss even her own prior victimization,
00:14:26
because we're over that. That's done and over with, so let's move on with our relationship.
00:14:31
So that too is another measure of his exerting power and control. - [Vivica] Detective Zehler now questions his movements
00:14:39
after the argument and his story that he stormed out. The plan is to trap him in another lie.
00:16:08
- One of the tactics used by Williams was that his phone was dropped in water. I would suggest that that's a deliberate act.
00:16:17
And he states that he was trying to dry it out with rice. And I think there was a hope
00:16:23
that the police wouldn't find the evidence contained within that mobile phone.
00:16:29
- [Vivica] But if Marvin is trying to hide something that's on his phone, it's too late.
00:16:33
Unknown to Marvin, the police have already recovered all of its data from the cell phone company.
00:16:40
- The purpose of a good interrogation is to get a confession. You want the person to admit involvement in the crime.
00:16:49
By the time you get to an interrogation, generally, a lot of work has gone into an investigation
00:16:56
and you are very sure of who your perpetrator or your suspect is. - [Vivica] Feeling confident
00:17:03
because of the information he's gotten from Marvin's phone and what he knows about Marvin's criminal background,
00:17:09
Detective Zehler decides to ramp up the pressure. - So quite early on, he outrightly tells Williams
00:17:30
that they never ask a question they don't have the answer for. This is quite risky,
00:17:34
because no matter what we think about that suspect that we're interviewing, there still needs to be the presence of rapport,
00:17:41
because a suspect's constantly thinking, "Well, are they my friend? Will they help me?
00:17:45
"Can I plea-bargain?" A lot of the time, suspects can just clam up. - [Vivica] Marvin Williams is lying about his whereabouts
00:18:06
the night his fiancée Cassandra was murdered. But this doesn't prove he's the killer.
00:18:13
- Marvin's an experienced convict. He's been known, a couple times, for serious crimes.
00:18:18
He's done penitentiary time, in Florida, which is never a pleasant place. And if Marvin starts thinking about
00:18:25
how badly he does not want to go back to prison, he's gonna say the magic word, lawyer,
00:18:30
and that'll be the end of the interview. (suspenseful music) - [Vivica] With his prime suspect
00:18:37
looking angry and withdrawn, will Detective Zehler uncover the truth, or has he pushed too hard too soon?
00:18:48
(suspenseful music) - [Vivica] Coming up, loose lips sink ships. - [Vivica] And Marvin gets creative.
00:19:00
- Describes it almost as a scene from a Shakespeare play. [Vivica] In Jacksonville, Florida,
00:19:15
convicted felon Marvin Williams has been brought in for questioning about the brutal murder of his 61-year-old fiancée,
00:19:21
Cassandra Valentin. So far, he has maintained his innocence, claiming that on the night in question
00:19:28
they had a heated argument, before he stormed out and headed downtown. But the Jacksonville police are only just getting started.
00:19:37
Detective Zehler knows much more than his suspect, Marvin Williams, realizes. His plan is to reveal this step by step,
00:19:46
each time, blindsiding Williams and weakening his resolve. He now hits Marvin with new information.
00:19:55
Both of his trusted sisters have been helping the police with the investigation.
00:20:01
- The detectives went to visit the sister of Williams. I believe that they went to another state.
00:20:08
It's important that they see her, because, from the family, it would appear that she was the closest relative to Williams
00:20:16
and would've understood what his movements were, how he'd be behaving, and what the authorities would need to do
00:20:22
in order to bring him to justice. - [Vivica] For Marvin, this is devastating news.
00:20:47
On the night of January 22nd, 2018, he'd left phone messages and a text for his sisters
00:20:55
saying he was going to kill himself because he'd murdered Cassandra, and wasn't going back to prison.
00:21:02
Williams had destroyed his phone to try and prevent police from seeing those messages.
00:21:07
But his sisters had given him up. - So the detective now is shifting into high gear
00:22:01
in the confrontation phase of the interrogation, right? Marvin, Marvin stop. I know you're lying.
00:22:07
I got the phone. I got the text messages. I've got the voicemail. I've got the cell tower location records.
00:22:13
I've got it all, Marvin. And, Marvin, you got a big problem. - [Vivica] Having revealed his trump card,
00:22:39
there's no turning back for Detective Zehler. This is the moment of truth. Now it's a case on whether they can break Williams
00:22:46
and get him to confess, or whether he will request a lawyer and try to shut them down.
00:22:53
- The level and the pace at which you conduct that interview and the amount of pressure you put on the suspect,
00:22:58
it has to keep moving forward, like a train, almost. Once you've got to a certain level,
00:23:03
you can't back down. And with Williams, we see him at one point sort of lean back,
00:23:08
change his posture because he's not happy. He's not happy, the way he's being treated.
00:23:14
So that was probably, for me, the pivotal to a point at which you could have gone either way.
00:24:27
(sighs) - As a detective, having interviewed many people for the offence of murder,
00:24:44
when an admission is made, you're like a swan. You're on top of the water, acting all regally,
00:24:51
but underneath, you're peddling like mad because it's a real adrenaline buzz to get a confession from a murderer.
00:25:01
- Williams has got quite a low voice in terms of volume. He's quite labored. He's quite slow in how he delivers information anyway.
00:25:10
But when he realizes that the game's up, the voice tone lowers even more. So again, these are all leakage signals and red flags,
00:25:18
the fact that there's been a sudden shift in emotion. - Williams describes the episode,
00:27:32
to start off with, as being fun, where there's pushing and shoving and a discussion and...
00:27:40
And it's far from fun. Cassandra dies as a result of this incident and he's trying to play it down,
00:27:49
to make it look as if it's an accident, it's self-defense. But he's trying to minimize
00:27:56
his involvement in this offense. - Lot of victims get blamed for their own demise
00:29:03
because of their bad behavior. So Marvin's trying to transfer his bad behavior
00:29:07
onto the girlfriend. And Marvin's on the hook for it. Even Marvin, as dumb as he is, has figured that out.
00:29:14
But he is still gonna go with these fairy tales. - When Williams describes the way in which Cassandra dies,
00:30:49
he describes it almost as a scene from a Shakespeare play. He makes it the most romantic murder that's ever taken place.
00:31:05
- [Marvin] (long exhale) - [Maleary] Williams asserts that Cassandra said, "Baby, baby, I want to die.
00:31:28
"I want to go home." He's effectively saying that she's given him permission to kill her.
00:31:34
- [Vivica] Detective Zehler doesn't challenge this absurd story. He knows the more Marvin says,
00:31:40
the deeper the hole he's digging for himself. - I think the circumstances surrounding her actual death
00:32:16
are quite surprising. And I think it's highly unlikely. In fact, it is incredulous in its finest degree.
00:32:27
And here's why. I don't know if any person who's been accidentally stabbed, as a victim,
00:32:34
suddenly realized they're bleeding out and say, "Why don't you just kill me "and get it over with,"
00:32:39
for whatever reason. And if that is his argument, that is a very, very implausible and weak argument.
00:32:50
- [Vivica] Marvin Williams has finally confessed to stabbing Cassandra Valentin to death.
00:32:55
But he's also claiming that it was a mercy killing, that Cassandra asked him to put her out of her misery.
00:33:01
(suspenseful music) - [Vivica] Marvin has just been told that his fiancée, Cassandra,
00:33:48
could have survived her initial stab wound if he called an ambulance instead of stabbing her several times in the neck.
00:33:55
His response says it all. - [Ciolino] "Marvin, you stabbed her in the chest, "and she's talking to you.
00:34:14
"You could have stopped and called 911 and saved her. "She hadn't been stabbed in the neck yet."
00:34:19
"No, no she hadn't." "You could have saved her." And Marvin looks at the detective with disbelief
00:34:24
and goes, "I'd still be sitting here." "Marvin, she'd be alive." "Yeah, but the end result is I'd still be sitting here."
00:34:33
In other words, "Ah, they'd get me "on violation of probation and domestic violence
00:34:36
"and I go back to penitentiary. "So, what do you expect me to do?" - [Lee] And his reaction was one of grave indifference.
00:34:46
His reaction was one of non-remorse of non-contrition. I think it kind of painted a pretty good picture
00:34:51
of his character 'cause that's what he appeared to be. That type of careless, reckless,
00:34:59
in this case, murderer. - Marvin Williams has confessed, but only to his own concocted and bizarre version of events.
00:35:10
He claims that Cassandra attacked him with a knife. In the struggle that followed,
00:35:16
she was accidentally stabbed in the stomach. Then, out of kindness, Marvin stabbed Cassandra multiple times in her neck.
00:35:25
He claims she had begged him to finish her off. - [Ciolino] So do we think we're finished yet,
00:35:32
with the craziness? Crazy Town is still in full force. - [Vivica] Coming up, Marvin's fantasy becomes
00:35:43
even more elaborate. - [Vivica] Does Detective Zehler have enough for a conviction?
00:35:51
- This is not a self-defense issue. This is a coldblooded murder. - [Vivica] Marvin Williams claims
00:36:04
he accidentally stabbed his fiancée, Cassandra Valentin, after she came at him with a knife.
00:36:10
Then, when she begged him to finish her off, he did so, with care and kindness.
00:36:37
- "And then you stabbed her in the neck?" "Yes. Then I stabbed her in the neck after that."
00:36:40
So, "Baby, I love you. "Baby, give me a kiss. Baby, send me home. It's just Marvin just spinning out control here.
00:36:49
- [Vivica] But the crime scene tells a different story. Cassandra was stabbed in the neck multiple times,
00:36:55
and it was done with such force and brutality that the knife's handle broke off,
00:37:00
leaving the blade embedded in her throat. So what is Marvin trying to achieve with this bizarre version of events?
00:37:10
- [Darren] Once you reach a certain level where you've been presented with evidence
00:37:14
that it's clear you're involved, people try to minimize the impact of that involvement.
00:37:20
So, again, with Williams, we see him give this account of the fact that it was a bit of a stab wound to the abdomen,
00:37:27
and then she was pleading with him to kind of finish her off and stuff like that,
00:37:31
which, you know, who would do that? Who would? It goes beyond the realms of anyone's sort of sense, really.
00:37:40
- [Lee] She's lying there, dying in his arms, and he wants one last kiss before she reaches out
00:37:45
and touches the face of God. That is just delusional, to no extent. I mean that is just...
00:37:53
It's unfathomable. And it casts him as someone who's, um... almost having an out-of-body experience.
00:38:03
- [Vivica] By claiming that Cassandra had actually attacked him first, Marvin is hoping to argue self-defense,
00:38:10
but Detective Zehler explains to Marvin that his own account of what happened has already ruined any chance of that.
00:38:50
- The account given by Williams absolutely destroys his own defense. There isn't a jury in the United States
00:38:58
that wouldn't convict him of murder because it is so fictional, it's so implausible
00:39:05
that 12 good people would always find him guilty. - [Vivica] But Marvin and Cassandra's relationship
00:39:13
has been complex and volatile, defined by violence, but also co-dependency over a long period.
00:39:20
Is it possible that a jury might believe some or all of Marvin's story? - This is not a self-defense issue.
00:39:30
This is a coldblooded murder. - The disconnect between the actions and behavior is just so obvious that
00:39:42
it doesn't even warrant further attention, to be honest. - [Vivica] Despite Marvin's confession
00:39:48
and his utterly implausible explanation, no murder case is cut and dry, and no conviction is 100% certain.
00:40:00
- You can never take a confession on face value. You have to prove that it has taken place
00:40:06
in that particular way. Therefore, you need to build all the other evidence around it,
00:40:11
the forensics, the telephone work that would've taken place, the witness statements that they'd have needed to take.
00:40:19
You need to put all of that together in order to prove the case. - [Vivica] And more than that,
00:40:25
it has to be made clear to the perpetrator, in this case, Marvin Williams, that he is not going to get away with his lies.
00:41:20
- [Ciolino] Yeah, it's pretty safe to say that Marvin's so full of it it's unbelievable.
00:41:25
And it's what makes this case remarkable, is that Marvin actually gives all of this up
00:41:30
in grand, glorious detail, with these crazy, I mean... The best lawyer in the world
00:41:36
couldn't get Marvin out of this one. - [Vivica] On January 24th, 2018, Marvin Williams was charged
00:41:44
with first-degree murder of Cassandra Valentin, but it didn't remain that way. - [Lee] He wasn't prosecuted for first-degree murder,
00:41:55
which I guess the state could not prove that it was with the intention or premeditation to kill.
00:42:00
But given that it was a crime, and perhaps may have occurred in the heat of the moment
00:42:04
where death resulted is more likely an unintentional homicide, and that is what he pled to.
00:42:11
(tense music) - [Vivica] In the end, Marvin Williams was found guilty of the second-degree murder of Cassandra Valentin.
00:42:20
In January, 2019, he was sentenced to 35 years in prison. Despite his vow to his sisters
00:42:29
that he would rather die than face prison time again, Marvin Williams will likely spend the rest of his life
00:42:36
behind bars. (intense music)
