talk some true [Music] crime no Trish hannes was murdered 3 years ago and to this day there are several good
00:04:31
suspects for her murder how about we get to know some of these dirt bags a little
00:04:37
better shall we let's start off with dirt bag number one Doug Smith on January 17th of
00:04:44
2020 there was some news that was of interest to those following Trisha's case New Hampshire State Police
00:04:51
announced that they were seeking The public's help in finding a man wanted on two outstanding felony domestic violence
00:04:59
warrants police were looking for 31-year-old Douglas Carl Smith Jr looks like old douge boy was on the run the US
00:05:08
Marshall service was tasked with tracking him down while he was on the lamb additional charges were piled on in
00:05:15
March of 2020 State Police issued another alert saying Smith was quote wanted on numerous outstanding arrest
00:05:23
warrants from multiple jurisdictions Mr Smith has knowingly concealed his location from law enforcement in doing
00:05:30
so Smith has committed a new felony level offense by failing to register as a criminal offender but it wasn't just
00:05:38
new charges of evading law enforcement two rape charges were added authorities saying Smith is wanted on several
00:05:45
warrants including aggravated felonious sexual assault second degree assault bail violations a felon in possession
00:05:55
and Reckless conduct with a firearm as well as failing to register as a sex offender this is according to Jeffrey
00:06:02
white a deputy US Marshall he goes on to say that Doug Smith should be considered
00:06:08
to be armed and dangerous and also considered a douchebag Doug Smith's wanted status was big news publicized
00:06:16
across the country and even featured on fugitive of the week on A&E's live PD show but that's not the end of it when
00:06:25
we put Doug Smith under the garage microscope we see that Doug Smith SM is a scrap metal and parts dealer but he's
00:06:32
also rumored to be a meth dealer and user Smith's arrest record is lengthy dating back to July 2009 when he was
00:06:41
convicted of fonus sexual assault in marac county and required to register as a sex offender over the years he was
00:06:50
also convicted of criminal threatening burglary and assault at least one woman he assaulted has a permanent restraining
00:06:57
order against him in 2019 he racked up additional charges that year he was convicted of receiving stolen property
00:07:05
and tampering with public records information and this is a weird one he was indicted for wrongful voting for
00:07:13
allegedly voting in both Grafton in Danberry in March of 2018 according to the indictment he
00:07:20
wasn't qualified to vote in Danberry because a person can claim only one domicile for voting purposes boom voter
00:07:28
fraud it's pretty funny that this dirt bag who I firmly believe beats women and steals
00:07:33
from the government is so concerned with voting that he did it twice illegally just proves that aay that's too invested
00:07:42
in politics is probably a [ __ ] princess it's very important to note that in some
00:07:48
of his criminal offenses Doug Smith had an accomplished this was in the form of his wife dirt bag number two Ashley
00:07:56
Smith and we will get to her but first some more dirt bag stuff on Doug on August 18th
00:08:05
2019 on Parade ground Cemetery Road in mner Doug Smith shot at a moving vehicle that was attempting to get away from him
00:08:15
arrest warrants were issued for Smith in September for this incident but police could not find him and he refused to
00:08:22
turn himself in this after learning of the warrants he was considered a fugitive from Justice
00:08:29
while police and Warner in surrounding communities were on the lookout for him the US Marshall service was called in to
00:08:36
assist in the efforts he finally surrendered without incident on September 5th and was arrested he was
00:08:43
charged with several felony counts the media noted that the arreste Doug Smith was being investigated in connection
00:08:53
with The Disappearance and murder of Trish Haynes who was living with him and his wife
00:08:59
what's shocking here is that Smith despite facing a Litany of charges while he was actually released on $10,000 bail
00:09:09
this was in late 2019 and true to form Smith skipped out on the bail and fled town this leads us
00:09:16
to the 2020 where he was on the lamb being sought by the New Hampshire State Police
00:09:22
and the US Marshall service but the US Marshals usually get their guy and here they finally caught up with Doug Smith
00:09:29
on June 9th 2020 in West Charleston Vermont here's an excerpt from the Concord New
00:09:37
Hampshire patch on how the arrest went down Smith was located outside of a residence in the 1700 block of Hudson
00:09:45
Road where he had been staying with friends while using the name Robert supervisory Deputy at the US Marshall
00:09:52
service Jeff White said Smith initially complied with commands but once he figured out that he was about to be
00:10:00
arrested he resisted attempts to place him in handcuffs Smith was quickly subdued with
00:10:06
a taser so you can feel good about that and handcuffed by the task force hopefully they Zapped him a few extra
00:10:13
times just for fun right in the grundle when Robert AKA Doug Smith was arrested he was found to be in the company of a
00:10:21
woman and a newborn baby it was Ashley and their newborn child their other five children were removed from their Care by
00:10:32
the state's Children's Services right so let's have more kids this time Smith would not be able to avoid prison time
00:10:40
he took a quote Global plea agreement among marac and Sullivan Cy's as well as the New Hampshire Attorney General's
00:10:49
office this is a complicated thing and I'm going to kind of sum it up here we spoke about all the things that he was
00:10:55
going to be charged with some of them we went into more depth than others this this comprehensive deal meant that the
00:11:01
defendant Smith would take a plea to multiple unrelated charges from differing jurisdictions so they're all lumped
00:11:10
together in this one agreement but he's basically pleading guilty to all the charges so he pled guilty to several
00:11:17
felonies and misdemeanors Smith was sentenced on December 10th 2020 to 5 to 10 years in
00:11:24
prison and will serve concurrent sentences on some of those charges so for now New
00:11:31
Hampshire he's locked up so I think law enforcement should get a little creative
00:11:36
and they should like tape scissors to his hands so he doesn't have hands he just has like working scissors and then
00:11:44
they light his crotch on fire well we're going to discuss some other ways that the authorities could get creative in
00:11:51
this case as we go along as far as evidence goes that Doug Smith is responsible for
00:11:58
what happened to Trish of course if the police have anything that's concrete concrete physical evidence they're not
00:12:05
saying so on the public level all of the evidence that we know of is thanks to the efforts of Trisha's family and of
00:12:12
course is circumstantial but it is as follows we know that Trish was staying with Doug and Ashley when she vanished
00:12:19
and there was witnesses that say they abused her that they were exhibiting control over her and even cut off
00:12:27
communication between Trish and her family Doug Smith has a history of violence and a long rrap sheet of
00:12:37
criminal Behavior I think we should we say the word rap sheet a lot and I think we
00:12:41
should break down that acronym for people it's it's a real AC acronym and I believe it stems from the New York City
00:12:49
court system where it's an acronym that stands for report of arrest and prosecution so as we know because we
00:12:58
reviewed it Doug Smith has an extensive rap sheet Doug and Ashley have not cooperated with the investigation in
00:13:06
fact they told police and they told Trisha's family that she left and moved to Vermont well and what we see a lot of
00:13:15
times in cases law enforcement H might have a lot on this dirt bag but because he already has these pending charges
00:13:23
well let's arrest him for these let's get him at least Behind Bars get the public safe
00:13:29
and we can continue to work on this criminal investigation we also have the fact that Trish was found dismembered in
00:13:36
a washer/dryer that was lifted from a pond very near one of the locations where Doug and Ashley were known to have lived
00:13:44
yeah within I think four miles right it was 3 miles oh very close but there is reason to believe that Doug Smith is
00:13:55
possibly not the one who killed Trish or not solely responsible that someone else may have
00:14:01
killed Trish maybe Doug just helped to cover it up yeah maybe there's a accessory so let's get
00:14:10
to as promised Captain dirt bag number two Ashley Smith many people believe that Ashley is responsible for what
00:14:18
happened so what is Ashley's rap sheet one the fact that her and Doug's five kids were removed from their Care by
00:14:25
Child Services next the 2019 state police blot shows Ashley E Smith age 26 of Danberry
00:14:35
pled guilty to tampering with public records then she pled guilty to a second charge of tampering with public records
00:14:42
she pled guilty to unsworn falsification now I don't know what all of this pertains to exactly but clearly
00:14:51
she's fine with breaking the law to serve her own purposes then in October of 2019
00:14:59
this is while Doug was still facing charges for the shooting incident the uh cin police were called
00:15:08
to 235 Cen Turnpike for a domestic disturbance this was Doug and Ashley's Residence at that time cin police chief
00:15:20
Richard Lee responded to the call and found a car parked on the road with a man and woman Inside he asked if they
00:15:29
were involved in a domestic and they said no so he drove to the house where he found Doug Smith here's what happened
00:15:38
according to the union leader Lee got to the house and spoke to Doug Smith who told him that Ashley
00:15:46
Smith had just left and was going nuts another man Brandon Teeter 19 had been at the house and told Lee that the
00:15:55
Smiths engaged in a loud argument and at one point Ashley Smith tried to drive away in a car that Doug Smith did not
00:16:03
want her to have this is according to an affidavit per the union leader now we took a look and reviewed this affidavit
00:16:12
it alleges that Doug and Ashley were arguing about him cheating on her and Ashley wanted to leave in a car that
00:16:20
Doug owned Doug didn't want her to take the car and so according to this Witness
00:16:28
Ashley got into the car and started to drive off but old douge boy threw himself onto the hood of the vehicle to
00:16:36
prevent her from leaving oh it gets better my friend it gets better it's very romantic yeah this
00:16:43
is this is very like crazy please stop I need you in my life yeah crazy soap opera [ __ ] right here I can't be as
00:16:52
shitty if you're not with me yeah so according to the affidavit it says that uh once he jumped on threw himself onto
00:17:00
the hood of the car Ashley then yelled to Doug and we know this to be true because we get the
00:17:06
witness imagine this witness too like he's like what the heck is going on Ashley yells to Doug the the oldest
00:17:15
saying in the book right if I can't have you then no one can have you oh yeah because you really want Doug
00:17:25
we ain't done to which Doug responded quote I'll send you back to the [ __ ] mental hospital where you
00:17:33
belong so Ashley drove off with Doug clinging to the hood of the vehicle until she threatened to drive into a
00:17:41
tree okay okay keep going I'm I'm sorry well she says hey I'm going to drive this car
00:17:52
into a tree and then Doug gets off of the vehicle so first off there's more stable relation ships on the Jerry
00:17:59
Springer Show than these two Maniacs makes me feel better about my first marriage and back to the portion of if I
00:18:07
can't have you then no one will who in their right mind would want anything to do with either of these ass hats no all
00:18:14
right but what is important here is that when Ashley realized that the police were coming she threw her purse which
00:18:23
contained a loaded gun out the car window and threw it into the woods the witness this Teeter fella later drove
00:18:31
the chief of police to show him where the purse was located and retrieve it so Chief Lee returned the purse to Ashley
00:18:40
but kept the Ruger handgun that he found inside the purse because he wanted to verify its ownership and run it through
00:18:48
NCC Chief Lee said Ashley became belligerent demanding that the gun be returned to her she was adamant that her
00:18:56
father obtained the gun and a quote Backwoods sale and there was no legal documentation regarding its
00:19:04
ownership Ashley told Lee that she borrowed the gun from her dad because she was being threatened she said that
00:19:11
she threw it out the window because she wasn't supposed to have a gun so she threw she threw the gun out the window
00:19:20
cuz she wasn't supposed to have a gun but she also tried to run man over and crash her car into a tree so the man
00:19:28
would die okay well and she says that she's not supposed to be in possession of a firearm because of a restraining
00:19:36
order that was against her from a name that we've heard before Faith Partridge so this restraining order was
00:19:43
in effect from May 2019 until May of 2020 now remember Fay Partridge she's the woman who came to the Smith's home
00:19:53
with her husband and her husband witnessed Doug Smith backhanding Trish haes I think maybe they were trying to
00:20:00
start a cult or something well I don't know exactly what happened here but Faith Partridge was scared enough and
00:20:08
there was enough evidence of Ashley threatening her to actually get that restraining order that was it in place
00:20:14
for one year the next part is crazy if the first part wasn't crazy enough after the gun
00:20:21
was taken away Ashley then filed a complaint with the New Hampshire state police reporting Chief Lee for stealing
00:20:29
her gun and her money the gun that she threw away that she's not allowed to have that has no legal
00:20:36
documentation of course her allegations didn't stand and her case was thrown out
00:20:41
and Ashley was charged with false reporting falsifying physical evidence violation of a protection order and
00:20:47
breach of bail conditions she was out on bail after posting $5,000 in cash uh she
00:20:55
was facing she is I should be clear on that she is facing up to 7 years in prison so here we sit Captain right July
00:21:03
of 2021 and we find two still pending cases involving Ashley Smith one was in Warner
00:21:11
for violation of privacy and uh one for false reporting and falsifying physical evidence that's all from some of that's
00:21:22
from that gun incident that we just spoke about but that's not all Trish Haynes family says that this behavior is
00:21:29
typical of Ashley and her family I don't think that it you have to use much of an imagination to believe
00:21:38
this statement M her mother Wendy who we discussed very briefly on yesterday's show have
00:21:48
confronted and antagonized people about Trish threatening them if they talk about the case so we have Ashley that's
00:21:57
tied to this case because Trish lived with her but now that we know it's a homicide and we know that Ashley's a
00:22:04
complete scumbag her and her mother have gone out of their way to online and otherwise
00:22:12
threaten people to not talk about Trish's case including Trish hayne's Family and her mother Wendy Place even
00:22:22
posted stuff online about Trish trashing her and implying that Trish killed herself and Ashley and her mom are
00:22:30
Brazen in their Defiance of this investigation so much so to the point Captain where they've taunted the hannes
00:22:37
family I mean this has to be some evidence that law enforcement is collecting we we know based off what the
00:22:44
family has telling us is is hey at some point Ashley's controlling Trish she's not letting us talking talk to her
00:22:51
directly we have to talk to her indirectly she's not posting anything online she's not even using her own cell
00:22:59
phone so she's under control of Ashley she she's last seen with Ashley and her and her husband
00:23:08
Doug and then you're online threatening Trisha's family to shut up about the case and and not talk about the case I
00:23:18
mean well and I want to point something out here because we will have some people from New Hampshire and from
00:23:23
Florida and and other where where they've not listened to our show before so I do want to go out of my way to
00:23:31
point out that usually we're not using this amount of language but because of the case and because of the language
00:23:38
that is in this case involved in this case we are going to use it because we're you know we don't hold back so
00:23:47
this next part is I mean it doesn't get any more public than this right when Trisha's family they had custom Pink
00:23:55
t-shirts made that said Justice for Trish they were wearing these shirts to rallies and to vigils
00:24:05
for their murdered loved one this is not just a lost loved one this is a murdered
00:24:12
loved one a murder victim they made these nice custom Pink t-shirts that say justice for
00:24:18
Trish Ashley Smith and her mother Wendy place and some of their friends God only know
00:24:27
knows how they have friends made their own custom Pink t-shirts that say [ __ ] your Justice
00:24:37
Trish so I mean I don't know how it gets any more obvious [ __ ] your couch as to
00:24:43
what probably happened here in this case now as if that is not strange enough in
00:24:49
a weird bizarre twist Wendy Place this is Ashley Smith's mom who has posted nasty things about Trish and verbally
00:24:57
attacked people for accusing her daughter lost her own mother at age 10 to Foul Play Betty plays vanished from
00:25:06

00:27:48
everybody get out the garden hose and prepare yourself because we're about to talk about some car fires some vehicle
00:27:55
fires the local authorities in several different locations were investigating some fires
00:28:04
that were set to one a pickup truck one a car fire and a driveway and then a third car was set on fire this was a
00:28:12
four-door sedan in all situations Captain most of these cars these vehicles were reduced
00:28:20
to little more than its frame and you go okay well what does this have to do with
00:28:28
Trish haynes's case well maybe they're burning the Cs to hide evidence that was my first thought but after some digging
00:28:37
it turns out that it couldn't be further from that in fact what it is is that Trisha's family says that all three of
00:28:44
these vehicle fires which we should point out have been deemed to be arson in all three cases right three separate
00:28:52
incidents all deemed to be arson Trisha's family says that they were set on purpose to destroy the vehicles of
00:29:01
persons who have cooperated and spoke with the police in regards to Trisha's case kalea so it's a threat is what it
00:29:10
is you're exactly right Captain kalea F mentioned in one of the news articles that we discussed was the one who had
00:29:18
told the family that she saw Trish being mistreated so one of the vehicles set on
00:29:23
fire and destroyed was that of kalea Fes one of the vehicle fires happened to the
00:29:29
brother of a guy who happened to die on a camping trip with Doug and Ashley Smith yeah surprise surprise you you
00:29:38
hang out with these two you end up tortured or dead don't go out into the woods with Doug and Ashley Smith old
00:29:46
Doug dirt bag and the Third vehicle that was burned belonged to a woman that we are just going to call her person a cuz
00:29:56
I want to keep her her name out of it now a source contacted Trisha's family and told them the following in a series
00:30:05
of text that I've personally read The Source said that the person who killed Trish was Ashley Smith and the source
00:30:15
knows this because she is very close with person a and a is a close friend of Ashley's
00:30:23
person a spent a lot of time at the Smith home in the spring this is the same time in question here captain in
00:30:31
the spring of 2018 person a told the source that Ashley would starve and beat Trish pick
00:30:39
on her belittle her and force her to do all of her dirty work around the house and with the kids she even accused Trish
00:30:49
of trying to steal Doug which we know from that other incident how Ashley feels about Doug if she can't have him
00:30:57
no one can person a did say that on occasion Doug was nicer to Trish than Ashley even trying to sneak her food at
00:31:08
times now when Trish vanished person a believed that she left and moved on at first unbeknownst to her one day Doug
00:31:19
and Ashley left for the day and Doug did not know this but Ashley locked Trish in
00:31:25
a nonworking freezer in their basement where Trish died of Suffocation so she was left in there for
00:31:35
a long time until apparently Ashley and Doug had to get rid of her at this point
00:31:42
Ashley asked person a to help her prepare the basement for renovations by cleaning out the
00:31:48
freezer which this unnamed person says rre of death I wonder because her remains being found found
00:31:58
one in the manner in which they were found and then and then also being submerged in water for so long if they
00:32:04
would be able to even be able to prove if that story is correct person a says that they
00:32:13
witnessed blood and what they believe to be human hair in the freezer now Ashley
00:32:20
told this person that they used to keep deer meat in the freezer to explain the blood in the hair but person a also saw
00:32:30
Ashley in possession of Trisha's cell phone which this person says was in working
00:32:37
order and told that other source that Doug had admitted in a panicked state to disposing of Trisha's body dug the dirt
00:32:47
bag person a also found it strange that they had gotten rid of a washer and dryer that was working properly at the
00:32:55
time that they got rid of it person a later gathered that Ashley dismembered Trish some of A's story is in fact
00:33:04
backed up by a witness named Beverly who says she heard the same story from the couters remember this was the other
00:33:15
couple that was living there around the same time so as we said there are stories
00:33:22
from people who are close to Ashley and Doug that say that Ashley is responsible for
00:33:30
what happened to Trish it's hard for me to believe that she acted alone though no I think I think Doug helped her yeah
00:33:37
right or that Doug wouldn't have known anything about it make him making him at least accessory to murder well and
00:33:45
there's also been some things said and I don't know how well this can be backed up like I said there's more than one
00:33:53
person backing up person A's story person B well no I mentioned them but there were also a rumors that Ashley's
00:34:06
brother Byron and her father may have been uh helping to conceal the body as well this is a whole family of freaking
00:34:16
dirt bags so again this person who witnessed all of this and put together what happened to Trish person a was the
00:34:23
third person whose car was set on fire in 2019 the fires the family believes were
00:34:30
warnings to these Witnesses not to cooperate any further with the investigation into Trish's murder so to
00:34:37
recap according to Witnesses who have spoken to Trisha's family Trish was killed at the hands of Ashley Smith
00:34:44
whose crime was aided and embedded by Doug and several others yeah it seems like this would be enough information
00:34:52
for law enforcement to act upon I agree and it seems like these suspicious car fires and some other situations have
00:35:02
really plagued witnesses to putting together this complete story for prosecution and arrest to move
00:35:12
forward so where do things stand now well the family of Trish Haynes is very frustrated as you can imagine with the
00:35:20
investigation they say that they have not been kept in the loop at all by the state police and the Attorney General's
00:35:26
office refuses to discuss the case or even assure the family that it is being worked on there was a Facebook post by
00:35:34
Valerie again she's the aunt she's the one that's kind of spearheading the uh investigation as far as the family goes
00:35:41
that says so at the end of last week I sent emails to the governor and the AG asking when we could see any form of
00:35:49
justice for Trish my emails were all well written and extremely polite today I got a response from the attorney
00:35:57
general this is the email that I received good morning we received your email regarding Trish Haynes the
00:36:04
investigation into her death remains an open case however we have not been able to determine what if any criminal
00:36:11
charges can be brought if you or anyone else has information that they think would be helpful please ask them to
00:36:19
contact our office or the New Hampshire State Police so that we can obtain their
00:36:23
information and this is signed Jeff Sten which again is the attorney general right now we sent our own questions to
00:36:35
the AG's office and hoping to get some information back really just trying to stir the pot a little bit and remind
00:36:43
them that people are paying attention to this case and that the garage Army will
00:36:47
be listening and watching and here's the response that was sent to us by the assistant AG it says good morning your
00:36:55
email regarding the Trish hannes case was forwarded to me here are our responses to your questions question one
00:37:02
were investigators able to determine the origin of the washer and dryer in which
00:37:06
Trisha's remains were found this seems like if you can determine and you already have witnesses saying that it
00:37:13
came from the Smith's home well then it's not a very difficult leap to make right captain that they put her in there
00:37:20
and dumped this washer and dryer right the answer we got was in accordance with the New Hampshire rules of professional
00:37:27
conduct for attorneys and the fact that this is an open case we cannot answer that question that means that means no
00:37:34
they have not determined where the washer and dryer came from or they don't have the proof to back it up the thing
00:37:41
that I'm truly afraid of is there's a chance that they didn't think to figure out where it came from next question is
00:37:49
there any connection between the three recent car fires victimizing Witnesses in the Trish Haynes case answer poten
00:37:56
poal crimes like those you reference are typically investigated by local police and prosecutors not the Attorney
00:38:02
General's office first off notice how he knows exactly which car fires we are referencing right so that's very
00:38:11
interesting here's the thing Captain yes I think that law enforcement probably worked this thing pretty good it looks
00:38:18
to me like they found the remains they've found some evidence for this thing to move forward it's at the
00:38:26
prosecution level at this point I agree it's these prosecutors that are going to
00:38:31
have to press charges that are going to have to take this thing to court that are going to have to pursue this thing
00:38:37
further and really what you just heard is a non-answer from the Assistant Attorney
00:38:46
General so citizens of New Hampshire what this really means is that they're dodging questions or maybe they dropped
00:38:57
the ball maybe the prosecutors dropped the ball on this very horrific case and following up with any type of
00:39:04
types of charges why would they do that who the heck knows but here's what I'm concerned
00:39:10
with it's the lack of commitment to protect law-abiding citizens in their constituency that is
00:39:18
alarming to me I would like to offer up some words of encouragement to Jeff strle to take this case to take a
00:39:25
personal invested interest in the Trish Hayes case because this case is 100% a perfect
00:39:34
example of why we need laws law enforcement and Punishment of removing those that are the most dangerous from
00:39:42
society right and this case is very solvable it is this is a case where dirt bag number one and number two tricked
00:39:50
this woman enslaved her beat her starved her stole and spent the money our government government determined this
00:39:57
woman needed to survive because she had a legit disability and then when it was determined that Trish hannes was
00:40:03
murdered people threatened those who would help police in this murder investigation we live in a time when
00:40:11
people want to defund the police defund law enforcement Trish Haynes should be the poster child for why that is a bad
00:40:19
idea we need law enforcement led by a true general of law enforcement these people are threatening Witnesses if you
00:40:29
allow witnesses to be threatened and scared off from doing the right thing well then why have law enforcement at
00:40:35
all because these laws mean nothing if you don't enforce them so is it that they just don't have
00:40:44
enough to bring charges is it that they're not working the case hard enough are they looking at
00:40:50
Trish as an individual that was on disability and just a Less thanin in society my opinion would
00:41:00
be I'm worried that the AG's office thinks that they have bigger fish to fry and I think that couldn't be further
00:41:09
from the truth I think that again this case is should be it's a prime example of why
00:41:16
we need Law and Order you can't have people committing murder and then running around threatening anybody that
00:41:24
knows anything about the case to scare them off and so I just think that while at the police and local level they've
00:41:33
probably worked the case again they probably worked it pretty good I just don't understand why when you have
00:41:40
witnesses that are willing to talk and give you the information you need that you haven't pursued some kind of Justice
00:41:48
here in this case it's it's very confusing to me now we asked several other important questions and we we got
00:41:56
a whole bunch of more non- answers so I won't waste everyone's time with those questions and those
00:42:04
ansers right now it certainly seems to me and I think that most of our garage friends
00:42:11
Captain will agree that enough Witnesses have information about what happened to
00:42:16
Trish at the hands of the Smiths that some charges could successfully be leveled against them Doug and Ashley
00:42:25
need to answer for the murder of this young woman who was last seen in their care and whose family misses and loves
00:42:32
her very much there is an upcoming rally at the New Hampshire state capital building in Concord this to push New
00:42:43
Hampshire State officials to engage in more aggressive prosecution of this case we will be posting on our social
00:42:52
media a flyer that the family of Trish Haynes would like to be circulated to spread
00:42:58
the word about this rally because look at the end of the day they need people to show up and support to help and to
00:43:08
encourage the proper members of law enforcement and the proper agencies to move forward with Trisha's case if you
00:43:16
allow people like Ashley and Doug Smith in your communities well then it's just a matter of time until they kill harm
00:43:22
steal from and threaten more innocent people yeah light your car on fire or light your car on fire that's right
00:43:29
don't go camping with the Smiths don't go camping don't don't don't carpo with them don't live with them don't look in
