But what what happens? You knew what was going to happen with that concoction. >> And I tried to tell him that. I did. >> What did you tell him? >> I told him that if he kept taking stuff that it would cause issues and he would >> No, no, no. You didn't say issues. >> It would hurt him. I said it would hurt him. >> That is what I told him. >> Listen, >> I wish to God there would have been a camera in there cuz you could have seen what happened. >> What? What happened then? >> THAT'S WHAT I'M TELLING YOU HAPPENED. I gave >> EVERY TIME WE GET LIKE THIS. EVERY TIME WE GET LIKE THIS, YOU'RE LIKE, "MAN, this is what happened. This is what happened." And then what happens is we talk for another 20 minutes and then we come back and then, "Oh, hey, guess what? We're going to add this to it now." So, so what else did you give him? Okay. And what happened to him and be straight? If you gave him Nyquil, it's the same as if you took and you strangled him or you >> Christmas morning. >> An 80-year-old man is dead in his own bed. His son is asleep down the hall and he won't know for two weeks because his wife keeps walking into that room and turning the TV on. The next day, the family leaves for Florida. The body stays. The money keeps coming and everything breaks in this one interrogation. >> Um, you later find out that he says, "I want to come clean." That >> dad is in the shed. >> I was going to call, but he said he was want to turn himself in. >> Tell me about that. Um, he said, "You had nothing to do with it. You don't deserve anything." He said, "I I'm the one that did it. I deserve to turn." He's like, "I need to turn myself in." >> Did what? >> And guessing hid the body. >> Okay. >> He said, "What he did when I was at school, I couldn't tell you." >> Okay. Um, so what end what ends up happening with this uh mattress cover? It disappeared. So I assumed he got refused to throw it away. >> Okay. >> Okay. And you say you got in it to see or to get it >> cuz you know how like when you shape a trash bag, you have to unstick both sides. >> I tried to do that. It didn't want to unstick. So I literally put it over myself and went like this down through it. >> What did he tell you he did? I'm sure you guys you asked him if if dad's in if dad's in the shed, he pro you probably asked him like, "Tell me about this." >> I did, but all he said was, "Don't worry about it." >> Okay. Well, I've been with my wife for a while, and I know that that's not how spouses conversations go. Okay. >> It shouldn't be. No. >> How How did How did What did he say happened? >> He didn't tell me. He just said that he found him dead. >> Okay. >> Did he say any details about that or anything like that? >> No. And the last time the last time I checked on him, I went to change his shirt, which was the night before. I was going to put it was like a it was like a blue shirt with a thing of duct tape on it. And he said it that might be too hot cuz he did get hot very easily. And so I put a white t-shirt just like a white like kind of like you would wear under a shirt like that. >> Just a white t-shirt. Um cuz like I said, I was going to put it was like a navy blue and it had a funny saying on I I can't remember. >> Okay. >> Um so I had sat aside >> and I put the white one on him instead. >> Okay. >> And >> so when the cops get there, they bang on the door and what did they say to you? >> Um they said they got a phone call um that dad was in the shed. >> Okay. [clears throat] >> Um and I was like Okay. And my husband speaks up and he's like, "No, he went with his brother in Columbus." >> Okay. Why didn't you tell him dad was in the [ __ ] >> Again, I was I'm My husband's anger isn't nice. >> Okay. >> Like, he's never put hands on me and my daughter. Don't Don't think that. Um, but he has had violent outbursts. He won't >> He has depression. >> Okay. >> And it comes out in the form of anger. >> I got you. Um, like I said, when I come home from school on the ETH, it was like you asked. >> What do you think happened to that? >> What do you think happened to him? >> I honestly do not know. I don't know if it was natural cause. I I honestly don't know. >> I mean, what do you think happened to him? I mean, has your husband act been acting weird or anything like that? >> He has. Yes. >> Tell them about that. >> Um, he started smoking. >> Okay. >> And he hasn't smoked in two or three years. He hasn't had the the want or the need. Okay. >> Um I come home [clears throat] from school and he's puffing on a cigarette like it's candy. I'm like, "Is is everything okay?" And he's like, "Yeah, I just can't believe he's gone." >> Okay. >> Uh he's like, "I'm an orphan now." >> Okay. >> And [clears throat] I'm like, and I had asked him about a funeral and he said he wasn't going to have one cuz we really went into debt paying for his mom's. you. So, tell me how who pays the bills. How do the bills get paid? >> Um, his dad offered us rent. We we when he moved in there, I was like, I expect nothing from you guys. >> Okay. >> You pay your bills, we'll pay ours. >> Okay. >> Um, his dad did offer rent cuz he's like, I'm eating your food. I'm using your water. >> Um, so we use that >> to put towards the bills. Like we we didn't need it until we both had to step away. >> Is the house paid for? >> Yes, it is. >> Okay. So, the house is paid for. So, the only thing you pay in the house is probably taxes. >> Yes. And that's around tax. >> Do you have any loans or anything out on the on the house? >> No, sir. I was going to take one out to actually try to help us. And um >> what about any other bills we got? Uh >> there's electric, water, and gas. And then um Spectrum for >> Okay. Spectrum is Jesus. It gets you there. Gez, I'll tell you that. I just um recently disconnected the phone, the house phone, and um it was cable because for that and our internet it was like too much. >> What other bills do you have? >> Um we had a storage unit but we let that go. >> Okay. >> Um we have streaming services. >> Okay. Rental side. >> Yes. >> Okay. How much you there >> a week? It's like 60 which again for Door Dash. >> Yeah. But how much do you owe? How much you owe? >> Oh, um, >> this is Britney Cole and she's being questioned about what happened to 80year-old David Cole senior. But the deeper detectives dig, the more her story starts to change. Let's watch what happens. Like >> 1200. >> Okay. 1,200. Okay. What other bills do you have? >> Um, we have rent to own. >> Okay. >> Which I'm not sure right off the top of my head how much we owe them. >> Okay. Um, but easily those two combined with his Door Dashing he normally takes care of. >> So he's got Door Dash money coming in. >> Yes. And then we had our state tax come in. >> Okay. So you had state tax come in. He's door dashing. You're not working. He's not working a consistent job. Dad is not given any money or he is. >> He is for the rent. Yes. And I like I told him, I never touched anything in that account unless I asked first. Okay. So, tell me about that. >> Like, if I knew we were short, I'd go in and pay dad. Okay. >> Um, >> how much money are we talking at a time? >> Only like maybe 100 or 200. >> Okay. How often does that happen? >> It not very often. >> Okay. So, um, so that doesn't happen very often. What's not very often to you? >> It was maybe once a month if that. >> Okay. So, once a month he'd give you a couple hundred bucks. >> Yes. >> Is Yeah. >> Okay. And then once we both stepped away, [snorts] he raised what he gave us to 1300. >> He did? Yes. And then he gives to you. Okay. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. And then so he'll give you 1300 a month for that. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Um Okay. So, I'll ask you again. Who do you think happened to that? I mean, it's it's possible that my husband did something, but I wasn't there and I don't >> What would he have done if he did something to him? >> Anything to be honest. >> Um I do know that he would he would tease my daughter's boyfriends. I I don't know how true it is. >> Okay. >> Um but he said he knew a piece of land where he could hide a body and it wouldn't be found. >> Okay. Now listen, >> Bernie, a lot of the questions that I that I asked you. >> Yes, sir. >> Are questions that I already know the answer to, okay? >> Yes, sir. [clears throat] >> So, some of those questions, >> quite a few of those questions that I've asked you, you're not telling me the truth on them, okay? We're going to go over those, all right? And I'm going to give you a chance, okay? Just tell me the truth on these things. >> Okay? Um, you got a lot going on. All right? My biggest thing is is dad who you take care of and you obviously care about. Yes. >> I want to know what happened to dad. Sure. Okay. So tell me again when you knew dad was passed when he was dead. I >> mean I found out January 8th. >> Okay. Once again I'm asking you and I'm telling you that a lot of the questions that myself and Detective Gruff are asking you I know the answers to. So, uh, what he's getting at. Okay. >> You gave us consent to look at your phone. >> Yes, sir. >> What do you think we found on your phone? >> It could [clears throat] be anything. >> No, no, no, no. Uh, what would we have found on your phone? I'm not asking you because I don't know what's on your phone. I'm asking you because I know what's on your phone. He knows what's on your phone. You know what's on your phone. We want you to tell us what we found because we don't want you to sit here and lie to us. Like this is like we had our conversation the other day. We've had our conversation today so far. And we're not here to play games. Okay. We want we want some closure. Okay. Uh I'm sure you do. I'm sure >> David Jr. does. But >> but we want to know the truth. And when did you find out that David Senior had passed? What do you think we found on your phone? >> Probably text messages. >> Okay. And what text messages do you think we found? >> I had asked a friend of mine um about body removal. >> Okay. Who's the friend? >> Caitlyn. >> Caitlyn who? I can never pronounce her last name. >> Spell it. >> N Y K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K K I, L N. >> Okay. So, um when did When was that? Was that on January 8th? As soon as you found out? >> No. >> Remember, we we know what's on your phone. We know we know the date. We want you to tell us. >> It was in December. Um >> so you knew in December. She begins by correcting one of the most important details in her entire story. She wasn't the person who found David. Her husband was. From there, the detectives let her explain his strange reaction. The shed and the mattress cover. But notice what is happening underneath the conversation. The story isn't getting clearer. It's becoming more complicated every time she explains it. >> Not that he had died. I thought he might be getting close. >> Okay. >> But I didn't know that. And I was asking how I went because David gets very angry if I have other men in my phone. Caitlyn is not a girl. >> Okay. Who is Caitlyn? >> Caitlyn is a guy named Frank Tolbert. >> Frank what? >> Tolbert. >> Okay. So, why would you ask somebody before a person died how to remove a dead body? I was asking how I go about it because I've I've never had to do that before and he works for a mortician. >> Okay. >> I wanted to get a sense of how I would go about it just in case. >> Britney, you realize that there is nobody on the face of this earth is going to believe a story like that. You work in the healthcare system. Yes. >> You know, >> when people die, >> I'm saying at home though, I've never experienced >> Be straight and honest with me. Yes, sir. >> Before you guys take off to Florida, is he dead already? Be straight with me and be honest with me. >> Is he dead already? >> No. Not that I was aware of. No. >> No. No. No. When the not that I was aware of shift, >> when you guys leave for Florida, is dad dead? Be straight and honest with me. It doesn't matter if you knew about dad being dead on the 8th or if dad was dead in October. It's still the same. Was dad dead before you guys went to Florida? >> Yes. >> Okay. And I knew that answer. Okay. That's why I'm trying to tell you the camera that's the camera that was in the living room in the kitchen. We have that >> and it recorded and we have everything that was on it. >> So tell me tell me about that. When when do you find dad dead? I know he's alive on the 23rd. >> Um it was again it wasn't me that found him. It was David and it [clears throat] was Christmas morning. No, you're going we're we're off of that. Okay. Because on that camera when David finds him, I I I can see it on that camera because he calls you at school and he says, "How long's he been dead?" You say 3 to 5 days. >> David says he's been dead longer than that. He's starting to decay. That's exactly what he says on there. >> So David does not find him. >> It was Christmas morning. >> Okay. Do you find him? >> Yes. >> Tell me about that. I tried to shake him awake. >> Okay. >> And of course, he won't wake up. >> Okay. >> And everything in me wanted to tell him. And I knew I should have done the right thing. >> Okay. >> And I again got in anxiety and panic filled. And >> why did you tell them? >> How do you explain to somebody they're unworthy? >> No, that's not it. Britney, don't be playing that card on me. You didn't want to not go on vacation. >> I could have cared less about vacation. I >> Well, then you never would have went and you would have stayed there. >> I suggested that we cancel it and he told me no. >> David did. >> Yes. >> He didn't know. >> He didn't know about this. David finds out on the ETH. >> You told us he didn't know. You just told us he didn't. >> But I'm telling him I told him I didn't tell him why we needed to cancel it. I'm just saying maybe we should cancel it. >> But why did you not tell him? Why? Why did you not call an ambulance? Why did you not call somebody? >> I don't know. I wish to God I could answer it, but give me a lie detector test. I don't know >> what happened to him. >> When he when I woke up, it was 5:00 in the morning. He was already dead. >> Okay. Is he in a room? Where's he at? >> He's in his room. >> Okay. >> I would never harm a hair on that man's head. I loved him like my own dad. >> Okay. What happened to him? He's straight and honest. >> Honestly, listen. >> I don't know. >> Medication got mixed up. Something else happened. Let me know. >> The only thing I can think of was I mean, he was asking for Tylenol like candy. >> Okay. >> And I suggested to him that he stop, but he's like, "No, >> he he's bedridden. The only person that could have given him his Tylenol was you." >> Yes. That's what I just sat here and said. Listen, the reason I'm pushing that question, you guys's phone conversations and everything is on that video tape. I know >> what happened to him. >> Honestly, that I don't know. I woke up and found him like that. >> Okay. Did you give him something else that he doesn't usually get the night before? >> No, the only thing I gave him was Tylenol and it was um like Zquo to help him sleep cuz he complained he couldn't get to sleep. That was all I >> When you find him, what do you see? >> He's laying in bed. He's pale. >> Okay. >> This arm's here. >> Is he on his stomach? Is he on his back? >> He's on his back. >> Okay. So, he's on his back. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Uh, has he got a pillow under his head? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Um, he got clothes on. What's he wearing? >> Um, he was still in the white t-shirt. >> Okay. He got underwear on. >> Uh, depend not a [clears throat] dependent diaper. >> I got you. Okay. So, he's got that on. Um, does he have pants on? >> No, he said it was too much of a hassle trying to change the diaper. >> Okay. Um, okay. So, he doesn't have a pair of pants on. >> No, sir. >> Okay. So, then he's in the bed. Then what happens? You find him. What happens? >> And I I just freeze. I wake everybody up for Christmas and the entire day. I know I should have told him, but I I just didn't. So, you're telling me that on Christmas Day, >> you find the person you called dad >> dead >> and you tell nobody. You close the door and pretend it doesn't happen. >> I knew [clears throat] I needed to tell somebody. >> You said you gave him Zquil. How much Zquil did you give him? >> The recommended amount, which was, I believe, is 15 milligrams or 15 double cup. >> Okay. Do you normally give him Zquil? >> No. Okay. So, you gave him something the night before to help him go to sleep. How much did you give him? >> The recommended amount. >> And that's what everybody would say. But you Britney, we I we just have a hard [clears throat] the reason it's like this is I have a hard time because the stuff that I've had to I've had to pull things out of you, man. >> You know what I mean? Uh I can tell when stuff gives you problems. All right. I called you out on at the very beginning. Okay? I I can tell this stuff gives you problems. All right? >> Most if not all this is on these videos, okay? Uh that's why I'm telling you you and David's conversations are all there. Okay? That's how I can tell you. David did not find his dad. Okay? You had already known about it. >> That was me. >> You sure? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. He was already passed before you guys went on vacation. All right? It does not matter if you wanted to leave him there because you didn't want to go on vacation or you did or you didn't. That doesn't matter. Okay? The honesty has got to come out. You get a chance to talk to us and be honest with us. Okay? Because this is it. This is it. You've already been talked to once before. This is it. Okay? And don't be don't be pushing stuff on David if it ain't David's fault. Okay? >> You know what I mean? cuz you come in here playing the the blame David game like David is >> you have literally blamed him for everything. >> You know what I mean? When David hasn't. >> Okay. I sat there and I watched David on that video crying like a little baby because his dad was dead. >> Okay. You can't fake that. >> You can't fake that at all. >> Yes, sir. >> Calling you as you're driving saying, "Hey, I'm downtown. Hey, I'm crossing the wire bridge. Hey, I'm on 146." As you're just sitting there in silence because he's that emotional about it. So listen, you owe it to your dad, okay, that you loved, okay? And you owe it to David as well. So we need to start all the way back over, okay? But we need to start with with the truth. And that truth has to come out. It has to come out. We can't be playing this game. We can't be playing all that stuff, okay? The truth has to come out, okay? You tend to tend to your dad every two hours, okay? Every couple hours. All right? It is, you know, you're you're somebody that is is caring for this guy. You know what his medications are. You know what's going on with him. Okay. Um, just tell me what happened to him. >> Now, the responsibility starts moving toward David Jr. She describes his behavior, his anger, and even a previous comment about hiding a body. The detective doesn't need to accuse her yet. instead gives her room to blame someone else. Then suddenly tells her that some of his questions already have answers. That's the moment the interrogation changes direction. >> Me and Detective Ruff and they're going to say, "What happened to dad? What happened to grandpa? What happened to my brother? What happened to them?" Okay, and I need to know. Okay, he's passed. If you hurt him, you hurt him. Okay? If you gave him something, you gave him something. All right? That doesn't change that he's passed. The only thing you can do right now is make things right. Okay? And the only way that you can make things right is to tell us what happened. All right? Because like I said, if you killed him or you hurt him, you did. It it doesn't change where we're at right now. Okay? But if you did, let us know because that's going to make you feel so much better. So what happened to what happened to dad? What happened to him? And be straight honest with me. I can tell you want to tell me what happened to him. >> It was the sequel. >> The ZQ. Tell me about that. >> I gave him one cup. Okay. >> And an hour later, he asked for another. Okay. I said I didn't feel it safe and he said he didn't care and I gave him the second. >> Okay. So, he had two he had two things as equals to him. >> All right. So, you gave him you gave him more Zekewell than what he should add. >> And I told him he was [clears throat] going to have it, but I went against my better judgment. >> I got you. anything else and be straight because this is this is our time. This is our time to talk. This is our time to be able to talk and get past things, okay? Because you're still here. You're in trouble. Do you know what I mean? You telling me, "Hey, this happened or this, that, or that happened doesn't change anything. You're still in trouble." Okay? I mean, you know that. Okay. So, anything else besides that ZQ? >> No. >> You said you were giving him Tylenol, too. How much Tylenol had you been giving him? He asked um he would normally do two a night, but there was one night um >> the night before he died. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> He asked um there was about six of them. >> Okay. And Tylenol comes in 200 millig, 500 mg. What kind of Tylenol are we talking here? >> Um it was it's the red and blue rapid release. >> Okay. So those are 500 milligrams >> is what they were. >> Okay. And you gave him six of them. >> He asked for it. Again, I told him I didn't think it was a smart idea. And [clears throat] all I got was I want to see my wife. >> Okay. >> That's all I got. >> Did you give him anything else? >> No. And >> I mean, I want to see my wife kind of sounds we we can inference what that is. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> So, 3,000 milligrams of Tylenol and a double dose of Zquil. >> And he makes the comment, "I want to go see my wife." >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. He'd been down and depressed since she died. >> Okay. And you gave it to him and the next morning he's gone. >> And I was freaking out because being right where we're at, I didn't want to be accused of murdering my father when I didn't do it intentionally. I didn't I loved that man. You can ask anybody. >> You love that man. Yes, you did. Okay. You did. But you are a woman here. Okay. And I'm going to get a little personal with you. Okay. You're a woman here that is supporting your daughter, which there's no problems with that. Okay. Her boyfriend. >> Yes, sir. >> And your deadbeat husband that is sitting playing [ __ ] video games. >> Okay. That takes a toll on you. That wears on you. Okay. You're the only one that's out trying to better yourself and do stuff. >> I am. Yes. >> You know what I mean? and he sits on his ass and he's sitting there playing video games and door dashing here and there. Okay. And you're stuck taking care of dad ringing the doorbell. >> Ringing the door. >> I didn't mind. >> I'm not saying you do. Okay. But I'm trying to get into your your sense of this is how you're feeling. Okay. And that those kind of things. Okay. The day before this happens, you guys are talking about getting him into a uh into a Okay. But still getting into it. It was not several days. His appointment was on the 23rd. Okay. That's when you guys were talking about putting him in. >> We know that already. We knew that before you. >> So, did he die on Christmas Eve, the 24th or the 25th? >> I found him on the 25th at 5:00 a.m. >> Okay. The 24th. Okay. Or the 25th. All right. You found him. What >> I guess what what brought you What time did you give him the medications? >> It was at 9:30. Okay. You checked on him in between there and I know you did. So, don't act like you did. >> And he was still alive when I did. >> Okay. When was the last time you checked on him? >> The last time before 5:00 I checked on him, it was roughly about 11, maybe midnight. >> You checked on him again. And I know you did. Okay. Cuz you were feeling bad because you were like, "Oh crap, I just gave him this stuff." So, when was the last time you checked on him? >> Other than 5:00, I honestly cannot remember. >> I know. I got up during several times during the night to go to >> Listen, let me throw this at you. >> Yes, ma'am. Did you do anything else to that man? >> No, I did not. >> Be straight with me. >> I am being straight with you now. >> Because if you gave him Zquil or you gave him percoet or you gave him, I don't know, cocaine, heroin, anything. Okay, that doesn't change anything. We're still the same spot where we're at. And when if you grabbed him by the neck and you throttled him and choked him to death, we're still in the same spot we're at. Doesn't change anything. >> I didn't touch him. >> Okay? Because me giving somebody some Zquil, I'm not going to be thinking, "Oh crap, man. And I I don't I got to hide a body and all that other stuff that that that's not how people think. So what happened to him? >> Honestly, that's all I did. I Nothing else. >> The detectives now have something her memory can't control. Her phone. She admits asking someone about body removal in December. Then tries to explain why, but the dates don't protect her. Under direct pressure, she finally admits David was already dead before the Florida trip. And then the detectives reveal they have something even stronger. The cameras. I promise you. And that's the God's honest truth. >> Does Junior know about this? >> I'm not. I can't remember if I told him I gave you that. >> You can or you can't. I'm telling you, you can. These are some pretty serious This is the most serious thing that's ever happened in your life. >> Yes. >> Did you tell him about this? >> Yes, he did. >> What did you tell him? >> I told him that he couldn't sleep and that I gave him that. I gave him the Zill and I told him he was in a lot of pain. So, I gave him the Tylenol. >> Okay. Did you give him anything else? No, I did not. >> Did you do anything else to that man? >> No, I did not. >> Nothing else? >> No, sir. >> Didn't do anything else to that man? >> No. And I >> You didn't give him any more other medications. You didn't uh, you know, do anything else that's going to harm him to to where he dies? >> Never. No. >> Okay. So, the last time you check on him, Christmas night or Christmas morning. We really Christmas morning. Or no, it wasn't even Christmas morning. What was you say is 11:00 on Christmas Eve? >> Mhm. >> Which is [ __ ] >> When's the last time you checked on him and you saw him alive? >> Before 5. I don't check the time when I get up to go to the bathroom. >> You know, you you are feeling self-conscious that you just gave him this stuff. >> Yes. >> You're like, "Hey, I don't want to." And then all of a sudden, you've got this huge gap. You go from 9:30, you give them, is it 9:30 when you give it to him? 9:30 when you give it to them. >> It's on your conscience enough to go check them at 11:00. Why do you wait clear till 5? >> No, I know I checked on another time, but I can't remember what the time was. >> Okay. All right, Britney, once again, the questions I'm asking you, I know these answers, too. Okay. I'm not trying to be a dick. I know these answers. All right. I'm not trying to have I hate having to pull these things out of you. >> You I'm honestly I don't look at the clock when I go to the bathroom. I looked at the clock at 5 because that's when I found him dead. So, you check on him at 11:00. You check on him again sometime between 11 and 5. You just don't know the time because you didn't go look at the time when you went to be >> when you guys leave. And be straight with me on this. >> Yes, sir. >> When you guys leave to go to Florida. >> Yes, sir. >> Why didn't you tell Dave or a junior about his dad? Be straight honest with me. >> Because I seen how he sparrowed with his mom. Okay. >> And he said if his dad ever went that he would >> Okay. But you knew he's got to find out eventually. Am I right? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Did Is it Adrian? >> Adrian. >> Did he come check on on dad or No. >> Yeah. He was in the house almost every night. >> Was he or wasn't he? >> He was. Cuz he videot my daughter with her dog. >> Okay. Does he know that dad's dead? I have no idea honestly. >> Okay. You know that thing where I was saying that man I can tell something bothers you. Tell me about that and be straight honest with me. >> He even told my daughter that he called him back there >> which is [ __ ] and you know it's YOU KNOW HE'S DEAD. >> I know he is but that's what he told my daughter. So I'm guessing no. He didn't check on him. >> Okay. But he's living there in the basement. >> Okay. Well, he wasn't living there at the time. He was just coming in to get the feed and water the dogs. He wasn't living there at the time. >> How often is he feeding and watering the dogs? >> As far as I know, he video caught her twice a day. >> Ready? >> He's feeding and watering the dogs. I don't doubt that. >> Okay. But he's been there enough to know that there is an elderly man that cannot walk that has been bedridden inside that house. Yes, sir. >> Okay. He feeds and waters the dogs twice a day and does not check on that man one damn time. >> I don't know. I mean, I don't I don't know. I >> Now, did he check on Did he come there and check on that house or not? If he did, >> he had our house keys. Yes, he did. Does he know about it? >> No. >> Does he know about it? >> No. >> I think he knows about it. Does he know about it? >> No, he does not. >> Does your daughter know about it? >> She didn't find out until the 8th. >> Nope. When did your daughter find out about it? >> As far as, again, I'm aware of, it was the 8th. >> When did your daughter find out about your dad being passed? Christmas. >> Okay. So, your daughter knows. Guess what? Adrian knows, too. Okay. So, that whole story we just went and spent 5 10 minutes on is a total [ __ ] lie. He didn't check on him, did he? Or did he? >> He didn't. >> Okay. Why didn't you just tell me that? That doesn't change anything. See how See how things are You're dragging things out and it's taking longer. You see where my Because a regular person is going to say that they're going to go and they're going to go check on this guy. Even if I didn't even know this guy and you said, "Hey, come take care of my dogs." I'd at least be like, "Hey, man. You want a bottle water?" Hell, when you came in here, I asked, "Hey, you want a bottle of water?" You said, "Man, so why don't lie to me about this?" That makes me question everything that you've told me. And that, you know what I mean? That makes me What about you? That makes me question everything. Ever since I met you both of our interviews. >> Yes, sir. >> It wasn't until we started calling you out on on the [ __ ] that we knew that you were lying. We just let you lie to a certain point, but we're getting tired of it. It's annoying that we know the truth and we know you know the truth, but you keep lying. >> You know, we're in this we're in this boat and all you're doing is sinking your own ship because you're not coming forward. You You're making us literally pull it out of you. So tell me what happened to him and be straight and honest with me. I'm not going to ask you too many more times. >> No, I did. I didn't do anything else to him. >> Okay. Did anybody else? >> Not to my knowledge. No. >> See, I don't like those questions. Okay. So, those kind of questions are deflecting questions. You're deflecting. >> This is where the detectives stop negotiating with her version of events. They tell her they watched the recordings and know David didn't discover his father the way she claimed. Then the questioning turns to medication. She starts with what sounds like a controlled explanation but the detectives keep narrowing it down until the amounts become impossible to ignore. >> I personally me didn't do anything else. Whether someone else did something to him or not I don't know. >> Well tell me about that. [clears throat] >> What do you see him? Does he got any marks or anything on him? >> No. >> Okay. So, so 20 minutes later, we've gotten that he he died on Christmas. He died on Christmas. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay.

And tell me about that. >> We came back and he was like, "Well, I was going to check on him, but you know, I didn't want to disturb him. and he was like, but then Nina told me that he was no longer alive, so I didn't want to go back there. >> Okay, that's warm. Okay. >> What did you tell your junior your husband? >> Mhm. >> What did you tell your your husband when you got back? >> That he had passed. >> No, you did not. >> No, I didn't tell him.

What do you tell your husband? >> Your husband obviously asked about him. What did you tell him? >> He was fine. >> I mean, your husband, you and your husband talked. >> Yes, sir. >> Your husband's probably like, "Hey, how's my dad doing? What's going on? I haven't heard the bell ringing." What did you tell your husband? >> The more that you talk with him, the less he's going to cry out. >> Okay. I still It's 8 days later that your husband finds out.

What are you doing in there? >> I just turn on my TV and I just stand there and I cry. >> Your husband didn't ask you why you're crying. >> No, cuz I would go to the bathroom and wash my face. >> Yeah, but still. Well, you can tell when people been crying. >> Not um >> listen, you weren't crying. No, >> you haven't cried this entire time. >> You haven't cried this entire time because I still think there's more that you're not telling us. You You may have cried when you realized, [ __ ] this is what I did to him, but you're not going back there and crying every day or every couple of hours standing in a bedroom while he's laying there dead knowing he's been there dead for two weeks. >> I cried once. >> Does it >> What' you do to him? Honestly, other than the medicine, I did not do anything to him. >> Did your daughter what? >> I don't know. >> No, no. You your daughter found out. You had a conversation. Otherwise, she would have ran to to your husband and told. So, what happened? >> I don't know. I got up at 5:00 and he was dead. That is all I know. All I know is beforehand I gave him the medicine. That is it. That is all I know. I swear to Jesus Christ. I don't know. You can ask me till you're blue in the face. I'm going to give you the same answer. I don't know. I don't. Okay. All right.

He said he unplugged both cameras. [clears throat] >> Um, he didn't tell me where he put the body. He just told me that he got it out of the bedroom. >> You didn't move anything. >> I mean, I moved the furniture. Yes. We have text messages between you and Junior where you said, "I can move it myself. Stop lying to us. Tell us the truth. Tell us what happened with the body." >> He got moved and put in the center. >> Okay. Tell us about that. Tell us about that. I mean, [clears throat] >> how long did How did you get him from the bedroom to the sun room? >> I drugg him. >> You drugg him? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Why are you still trying to throw your husband that you claim to love under the bus? >> Because he told Let me ask you this. You're sitting where you're sitting and we're discussing all of this. Is it David Junior's fault? >> Yes, sir. >> So, should he go to prison because of your actions? Yes, sir. >> Should he be sitting in jail right now because of your actions? >> No, sir. >> Then tell us the truth and quit trying to throw him under the bus. >> You drugg him from the bedroom to the sun room. >> I only throw him under the bus cuz that's what he wanted. He said he >> I don't know what he wants. I want the truth. >> Yes, sir. >> So, you drag his body from the bedroom. >> Yes, sir. >> Down the hallway into the sun room. Does David help you? >> No, sir. >> He does not. >> [ __ ] >> He doesn't help me. >> Why are you the one dealing with all this? >> Because he said he couldn't. >> Because once again, he sits around and plays video games all day. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Why Why is he putting this all on you? >> I don't know. >> Because you did this. That's why. Okay. That's why. And that's probably the same exact question. Probably the same exact thing he's told you. Am I right? >> No. He told me he couldn't help me because he couldn't see his dad like that. >> Do you blame him? I mean I mean his dad laid in a bed in a bedroom at the end of the hallway for two weeks. Yes, >> sir. >> So you put him in the sun room? Yes, >> sir. >> Is he wrapped up in anything? What is he? He's in a tarp. >> Okay. How did we get the tarp or tell me about that? >> It was out in the shed or not the shed, the gazebo. >> Okay. So, you got the tarp? >> Yes, sir. >> Who helped you put him in that tarp? >> I did it myself. >> No. No. Is it Nina that helped you? >> No, he helped me, sir. >> Who helps you put him in? >> I did it myself. >> No. Who helps you put him in the dark? >> My husband. >> Okay, it's more like it. >> I just didn't want him to get >> You're fine. You guys are both in this. Okay, you're both in this. Listen, I keep trying to tell you and I keep telling you you're in the same crap that you are. >> Okay, we we both both put him in the tarp. >> Okay, tell me about that. >> We both sliding down the stairs. Not down the stairs, but into the sun room. >> Okay, >> he sits out there. >> What day is that? So you guys find out on the 8th. What day is that? >> I'd say two or three days later. >> Okay. So he stays in the room for two or three more days. >> Yes, sir. >> Are you guys doing anything to cover the smell? I mean, he's stinking at that point. I mean, he stinks. >> David bought the little sprayers that you see hanging on the walls. >> Okay. That's what the sprayers were bought for. Yes. >> Okay. So, he buys these little sprayers. Those sprayers are to cover the set of the body. What are you guys talking about in that three days? You guys got to What's the plan with that? >> We were trying [clears throat] to figure out what either how to tell somebody or just to get rid of it. He wanted to cremate it. >> Okay. So, how were you guys going to do that? >> That I had no idea. >> Okay. >> Cuz you can't just call a funeral homeless and say, "Hey, I have a body I need cremated." >> Right. Right. Right. >> That's That's not how that works. >> Are you and David having problems? leave. Yes. Not going to lie, yes. >> Okay. Has David been staying at the house? >> Yes. >> Okay. Have you been staying at the house? >> Yes. >> There's been some times where I slept out on the couch. >> Explain to me because this question is going to come up and you're going to have to answer this question a million times. Explain to me how for eight days David does not know that his dad has passed and signed that for eight days. >> There's no reason why he shouldn't. >> There's eight days. There's eight days there. You guys are down in Florida for how many days? >> The day after Christmas until the 1st. >> Okay. So that is >> Yeah. 15 days. You're looking at 15 days from the time that he's he dies to the time that Dave Jr. finds out. >> Yes, sir. >> How does he go that long without him finding out about that body? >> He said he he said he thought, but he couldn't pull himself to go in and look. >> But you're going into that room. How many times a day are you going in that room and acting like you're doing stuff? >> Just a couple. >> So, you go from every two hours to check. Interrogation is no longer about whether she knew David was dead. She has now admitted giving him medication before his death. The detectives keep separating intention from action. What she gave him, how much she gave him, and what she understood about it. But there's still one missing piece, the body. Eventually, the detectives turn their attention to how D. >> Two hours checking on him to just going in a couple times. >> Yes, sir. >> There's something not right there. Something is not right. If he knew about it, he didn't tell me. >> He didn't know about it. When he walked in, which I saw on the camera before the cameras got disconnected, it's the first time he finds out about that. [clears throat] >> Okay. And that's where I'm seeing him crying. And that's where I'm seeing him call you. >> Yes, sir. >> So, tell me, how from the time that this happens, does he not know that his dad has passed inside that room? >> Because he doesn't go back there. He passes that room every single day to go to the bathroom or go to bed, does he not? >> He does. He He can't handle smells. >> Okay. >> That's why when we were at work, he didn't do the changing of people. I did cuz I don't >> Okay. He can't handle smells, but he has got his dad who is 15 days been rotting in that room. So, how does he not know? That's where I'm trying to get at. You're going to answer that. You're going to have to answer that question. I mean, are you telling him things? What is going on to where he doesn't know? >> All I told him was, is it small in there? That was all I said to him. >> Did you tell your daughter or anybody to say anything when people ask about uh your dad? >> I did. Well, I I told her she she would she made the decision as well as David not to make any call the day that they found out because she didn't want to lose both parents. >> Okay. I'm just telling you from her reaction, she knew before David did. >> I know that that's [clears throat] what I'm saying. >> You know, I mean, she found out on Christmas. >> She made >> and you guys came up with a story. >> Yes, sir. >> What was the story? that he moved with his brother >> to where? >> To Cincinnati. >> Okay. >> Still did you tell David that? >> No. >> Did you tell >> not till the 8th? That I told him that was the story that we were telling people. >> Did you tell him when when you guys got back from vacation from Florida? >> Mhm. >> Did you tell David he's moved to Cincinnati or anything like that? >> No, I did not. >> Okay. Did you tell him that he's going to arrest home or anything like that? >> No, I did not. >> You have told David something. You have talked to him or did something because there's no way that David is in that house doesn't like smells like you're telling me >> for 8 days and doesn't smell his dad. Ronnie, >> all I said was the room really stinks. I'm like, if you want to go in there, you can. And he said I didn't want to until until the 8th. He said he was afraid of what he might find. And that's to God's honest truth. I didn't tell him anything else. >> And then on the eighth, you told him that you and Nah had been telling people that he had gone to Cincinnati with his brother. >> Yes. >> Okay. So after that, what do you what do you do? I mean I mean he's two more days in the bedroom and then you dragged him down the hallway. Who ordered the mattress cover? >> David did. That that was him. >> Okay. The one >> but it wasn't for a mattress. >> No, it was his idea for the for the mattress cover. >> Okay. But to put Dave Senior in it, not to >> it started for the mattress cuz honestly we >> Come on. It was, but then we got the bright idea that to use it for his dad. >> Okay. So, you take him to the summer room. How long does he sit in the summer room? >> Maybe a day or two >> or three or five. >> No, it was one to two days. >> Then what happens? >> He got taken to the shed. >> Who takes him to the shed? >> Me and David. >> Okay. So you guys take him to the shed? >> Yes, sir. >> Tell me about putting them in the shed. What? Like what time of day do you put them in the shed? >> It was at night when it was dark. >> Okay. Is your daughter involved in any of that? >> No, she is not. >> Okay. What about Adrian? >> No, he is not. Okay. You guys put him in the shed? >> Yes, sir. >> Anybody else help you? >> No, it was just me and David. >> Anybody else know about dad being dead? >> When does other people find out? >> That's what I was going to say. Obviously, some other people did. >> Um, it had to have been the night that the cops were called. >> Not before knew. >> No. >> Um, I'm guessing Nina, cuz I didn't have much communication with her. >> Okay. >> Told her friend Naa that Ka stayed the night. She was supposed to stay the night. Um, [clears throat] she ended up leaving. She before she left, she looked back at me and David was like, "Love you guys. Thank you for letting me come over and I'll see you soon." She left and I'm guessing from there she called her cousin Emily and told Emily because Emily is the one who called knowing that we had issues with Emily already. >> Did you ever pay anybody to keep her mouth shut? >> No, I did not. What was the talk on your phone about the $90? >> $90? >> Yep. >> I want $90 or I'm calling the police. >> Tell me about that. >> Okay. Basically, what that was for was she gave my daughter some hoodies and a Nike hat. >> Okay. Okay. That was the situation where the girl came from uh hoodies about from like uh middle school. >> Yes. Yes, sir. that that situation was entirely true. >> Okay. >> Um >> Okay. And that's all about that. >> Yeah. Yes, sir. >> Okay. >> That's what that was for. Yes, sir. >> No, I have never paid anybody to to keep their mouth shut. No, sir. >> Who cleaned the room afterwards? >> That would have been me and David together. >> Okay. So, you didn't, as you said yesterday, just come home and old David created a new study room for me. You moved the rug, >> right? >> We We cleaned the room together. Yes. >> Okay. >> We didn't I mean, I did come home to a surprise office because I didn't know that that stuff had been moved in there, but yes, I did help move stuff out of there. >> The uh your friend that David doesn't know about, you said was a mortician or what does he >> He goes and collects bodies. >> Okay. Did you discuss any of this with him? >> No, I did not. >> Because, you know, we're going to talk to him >> and we're we're going to So, what what's he going to tell me? What's he going to tell me until something's on your mind? What's he going to tell me? >> I mean, I asked about it and I said if if this were to happen, which you know, >> don't throw him under a bus. What What did you guys talk about? I'm not. We We talked about, >> you know, if something should happen to him, would he cover for me? And he said, "No, I'm a mandated reporter." >> What do you mean if anything would happen to him? >> Figuratively speaking, like if he died of natural causes or something, you know, like I was worried about the medicine. I was like, "If I actually did this, and I wasn't trying to, and I didn't mean to." >> That goes right back to my thing. What did you do to this man? >> All I did was give him medicine. I swear on my father's grave. That is all I did. You realize that means absolutely nothing to me. >> I know it doesn't mean it does. >> Why? Why? What happened to this guy? >> All I did was give him medicine. >> If it's medicine, it's medicine. >> That's all I did was give him medicine. >> If If you've strangled this guy, okay, if you've shot him, you've stabbed him, if you snuffed him out with a pillow, it's all the same. It is all the same. Okay. I don't believe the medicine story. >> No, honestly, >> whether it's medicine or a pillow or a shirt of the face, >> I didn't smother him. >> Okay. I'm not saying you did. I'm giving you options. >> I didn't do anything to him but give him the medicine. That is it. >> So, what medicine did you give him again? >> Zquil and Tylenol. >> Okay. So, Zquil. Okay. You gave him two doses of SQL. >> Yes, sir. >> You said two cups. You said two cups. So, >> like this. >> Okay. So, you're That's 60 milliliters. If you're or I mean we 30 milliliters.

Anything else? >> No, that is all I gave him. >> So, will ZQL kill somebody? >> In large amounts? I I would assume so. Any kind of medicine in large amounts would. >> Okay. I mean, will it I mean, you said that you did want to give him this. Tell me about that. >> I I didn't. It was against my better judgment and I shouldn't have. >> Okay. And why didn't you want to give him this? >> Because I sleeping medicine. If you take too much of it, yes, it can hurt you. >> Okay. And how many Tylenol did you give? >> It was six. >> So you gave him six Tylenol in the ZQ? >> Yes, sir. >> And nothing else? >> Yes, sir. But you gave that to him knowing that giving him that much could cause him to die. >> He could put I didn't think die. I figured it would make him very very sick cuz in a day a body's liver normally could handle. >> The pressure finally produces a major physical admission. She says she drugged David and moved him from the bedroom to the sun room. Then the story expands again. the tarp, the smell, the attempts to conceal it, and eventually the move toward the shed. What was once presented as something her husband did is now becoming something she personally participated in. >> 500 Tylenol was always taken like that every day. >> So then why did you give it to him? >> Why? >> Because he asked me for it. >> Okay. So why did you give it to him then? >> He again he he asked for it. He wanted it even though he knew what it could cost. Did you tell him that? >> Yes, I did. I was like, you don't want to take this.

You realize that doesn't make any sense. >> Did Did you give it all to him all together? >> Yes, sir. >> So, all at once at 9:30, you give him 3,000 milligs of Tylenol and 60 milligrams of Zquil. >> Yes, sir. >> Was it just 60 milligrams of Zquil? >> Yes, sir. >> Or milliliters? >> Yes. >> Okay.

And then what happens is we talk for another 20 minutes and then we come back and then, "Oh, hey, guess what? We're going to add this to it." So, so what else did you give him? Okay. And what happened to him? And be straight. If you gave him Nyquil, it's the same as if you took and you strangled him or you did whatever else you did to him. So, you need to be honest. It doesn't matter if you gave him one tile on all three or you gave him a 100 tile on all threes. It's all the same. >> You see? Yeah. >> So, what happened? How many in what? >> At 9:30, I gave him 60 mg of the ZQL and three Tylenol 3s. >> Okay. >> At 11:00 when I went to check on him, he complained that he couldn't sleep and he was still in pain. >> Okay. >> And asked if he could have more Tylenol. >> You gave him more Tylenol 3. >> I gave him more Tylenol 3es. I told him >> how many how many? >> It was another three. >> Okay. So, he's got six Tylenol 3es >> within a how many period of time? >> Two hours. >> Okay. Okay. So then to keep going, >> I gave him that I told him it could hurt him >> and I told him that there would be repercussions. >> His exact words to me was, "I don't care. I'm in pain. I can't handle it and I want to see Janet." >> Is he trying to kill himself? >> Obviously, yes. He He threatened to several times, including in front of my daughter. >> Okay. >> You knew. Listen to me. You knew when you gave him six Tylenol 3es, six Tylenol 3es, >> I knew what would happen. >> Within a twohour period, what would happen? >> Yes, sir. I knew >> what would happen? >> He would die. >> So, you knew by giving him six Tylenol threes, he would die. >> Yes, sir. >> What happened? >> He died. >> Okay. That's why you were getting up in your checklist. >> Cuz I was worried. Yes. >> Why? I'm sure you've been you've been in this field for a minute. Okay. You you've you've dealt with elderly people. You've dealt with people that are hurt. And I'm sure you've dealt with people that have lost loved ones and all that other stuff. >> Yes, sir. >> Why would you give him that many pills? >> I didn't want to, but he just he begged me and kept asking me and kept moving out in pain. >> Okay, call an ambulance. I asked him if he wanted me to and he told me no. >> Okay. >> Now, the detectives test the concealment itself. She admits she and David moved the body to the shed and they begin reconstructing what happened afterward. The fake story about him moving to Cincinnati, the cleaned bedroom, and the mattress cover all become pieces of the same timeline. But the detectives aren't finished because her medication story still doesn't add up. You kill that man? >> No, I did not. Not intentionally. No. >> Did you kill that man? >> No. Never. >> I think you did. >> I didn't. >> Did you give him anything else? >> Yes, sir. >> So, Tylenol never had. >> It's all been Tylenol 3s. >> Yes, sir. >> Was it only six of them? Or when you went back into when you went to pee, did you give them more? >> No, it was only the six. And they they're your daughter's prescription. >> Yes, sir. But I can tell you exactly where the bottle is. I don't want >> Where is it? >> It's on my nightstand. >> Okay. So, it's on your nightstand. The ZQI. Did you give him Zquil? >> Yes, I did. >> Okay. Where's that bottle at? >> It's in my brown. If you go in my room, behind my bedroom door, there's a medicine cabinet that has all of our meds in it. >> Did you give him anything else besides Ton 03? >> No, I did not. >> It doesn't matter. I I'm not I'm [ __ ] you by any means. It doesn't matter if it's percoet, Vicodin. No, we don't have >> rack poison anything. It doesn't matter. It's all the same. >> No, sir. I did not give him anything else. >> Okay. But you know as [clears throat] a I I saw your your card. You're a licensed professional. >> I'm state. >> I I saw that inside your in in your wallet. >> Yes, sir. >> That if I give somebody six Tylenol 3s >> Well, as us teenagers, you don't handle medication in >> But still, I'm sure you have that if you're going through nursing school. Yes. If you give somebody six Tylenol 3es in that amount of time period, what's going to happen to them? >> They're going to die. >> And I warned him of that. >> But you're the licensed professional. You're the one taking care of him. You gave that to him knowing it was going to kill him, right? >> Yes, sir. >> So, why'd you give it to him? >> Because he begged me to. All he wanted to see was mom again. I didn't want to give it to him. I didn't want to lose him. Then you never should have given it to him. >> No, I shouldn't have. And I admit that's part of my friends. [ __ ] up. And I will take that with me and carry that with me until the day I die. >> Well, you knew he was going to die if you gave him that. >> I knew it could severely hurt him. Kill him. No, >> I know it would make him very sick and he could possibly die. Yes. >> Six time all threes. Six time all threes in a couple hour time period. You know what that's going to do? Essentially, he wanted to die and you helped him. Am I right? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. When you got up to pee, was he dead already? >> I the in between the 11 and 5. No, he was not. When I got up at 5:00, that's when I found him. >> Well, is that when you were describing he was lethargic and not moving around in the phone conversation or was that totally crap? If it is, it is. It's It's no big deal. >> No, that's what he was. Yeah. I mean, he was sluggish, but he was still alive. >> So, why when you check on him at 11:00? So, you give him When did When you check on him at 11, he's sluggish? >> No. Then he wasn't sluggish now. Okay. >> That's when he was asking for more. >> Yes, sir. >> When you got up to pee, he was sluggish. >> Yes, sir. >> Describe that. >> Um, he was just really confused. Um, he hollered out and I I [clears throat] said, "Yes." And he said, "Well, I'm still in pain. That medicine didn't do anything." And I was like, "I can't give you anymore." >> Well, wait a second, Brendie. >> He's still >> Is he Is he in pain or is he wanting to go see his wife? >> He was both. >> Did you give him more? >> Yes, I did. >> Okay. >> I love him. Yes. >> No. When you got up to pee, he's sluggish. He's slurring his words. He's saying he's still in pain. Did you give him more? >> No, I did not give him. >> Not even anymore, Ezekiel? >> No, I did not. >> I didn't want to give him anymore. And I didn't. >> And then you just couple hours later go check on him on Christmas morning and he's dead. >> Yes, sir. >> Anything else we haven't talked to you about that's going to come up and or anything that you've not told us the truth about that we need to know? >> No, sir. That's the truth. Like I said, you could ask, >> you know, you you realize, Britney, how I have a hard time believing a lot of stuff because anything I've had I've had to I've had to drag out of you. >> No, I completely understand how that's from finding out on Christmas. Until then, that's it. >> Okay. So, the um we've got the description of where that pill bottle's at. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. And the ZQL. There's nothing else you gave Jack. No. >> Okay. No, sir. >> Did you give him a full bottle of ZQ or what? and you know exactly what gave to him because you're that's your job. >> It was a half. >> Okay. Okay. So, >> but I want to be clear on it because since we've been talking over the last half hour, it's gone from a 15 milliliter to 215 milliliters to 230 milliliters to now we're up to uh 120 milliliters. How much ZQL did you give him? >> It was a half a bottle. >> Okay. Did you even measure it out or did you just let him take a drink? >> I just let him took a drink. >> Okay. So, he took two big drinks of Zquil. >> Yes, sir. >> Did he finish the bottle? >> No. >> Okay. So, there's still Zquil inside the bottle. >> There should be I know David was taking it as well, >> Junior. >> Okay. So, you weren't measuring it out. You were letting him take drinks of Z that night. I didn't measure it out. No. >> Okay. What else are you keeping from us? Cuz I can tell >> I'm honestly not keeping anything. >> There's nothing else. That is all I gave him. >> Well, I mean, that's not I mean you say all you gave him. I mean, a dosage like that, you know, is not he's not going to survive that. I mean, that's an overdose. >> Six Tylenol 3s. I'm a healthy 37y old.

Did he get it that night, too? >> No. >> Okay. All right. Nothing else you haven't left out. Nothing else you're not telling me? >> Nothing else? >> Nothing else? >> No, sir. >> Okay. Cuz I've had to pry everything out of you. No, that's everything that I do then. >> Okay. Well, and and I know we're focusing right there. I mean, anything else that I need to know about that I'm going to find out about that I'm going to be bringing back is we're not talking to you again. Okay. >> This is where the interrogation reaches its most important point. The detectives force her to stop speaking generally and give exact amounts and exact times. 9:30, 11:00, 6 Tylenol 3es. Then comes the question. and she can no longer avoid. Did she understand what those doses could do? Her answer changes the entire meaning of the confession. >> Because how this goes down is, you know, obviously, you know, after we're done here talking to you, we're going to talk to a prosecutor and the prosecutor is going to ask, "Hey, what's going on? How how things going in this case?" They obviously want to know how things are going in this case. Okay? Um, you know, your cooperation is the best way to be, of course. >> Okay? I can't promise you anything. I can't tell you anything. Okay? But this is the last time that you're going to be talked to by us. This is it. >> Okay.

There's not You didn't strangle him. You didn't put a pillow over top of anything like that? >> No, sir. >> You didn't do any of those kind of things. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Cuz I can see you got a reaction to that. So, tell me about >> I mean that that hurts. I could never do that to him ever. >> Did you do that to him? >> No, sir. >> Did you? >> No. >> I didn't know. >> Tell me about that. >> There's nothing to tell. I All I did was give him the medicine. That was it. >> So, you gave him the medicine? >> Yes, sir. Did you put a pillow or anything over top of his head? >> No, I did not. >> I mean, if you did, you did. >> No, I didn't. >> You realize I can tell when you're lying, right? >> I'm not lying. I didn't put anything over his head. >> Nothing. >> Huh? Okay. All right. So, you're not going to come out and tell us besides that medication, what happened? >> That's all that happened. Who's used the medication? I did not do anything else to him. >> Okay. All right. Um, okay. Well, we're going to get you over there if you don't have any other questions. >> Okay. >> I do. Where's the rest of the rope that you used to tie him up with? >> You bound him up when you stuck him in the tarp. Where'd the rope come from? >> Is there still a spool of it sitting somewhere? >> Uh, no. I believe we got rid of it. It was to hang your clothes out on the like a line. That's what it was. I We used all we had on. >> Okay. So, no, you didn't. You You used what you used and then you said you threw the rest away. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Why did you guys throw it away? >> Just first thought what to do to just just throw it away. We weren't going to need it for anything else. Have you guys, you or David or both of you, uh, cashed any of his social securityities, social security money or any of his stuff? >> I believe David did. >> Don't tell me. I don't do believes. Okay. >> David did. >> Okay. Tell me about that. >> He went and he used it for bills. >> Okay. Well, did he know that his dad was dead >> after the fact? Yes. >> Okay. Any other money of your dad or your dad's that? >> He doesn't get any other money. just no life insurance or anything like that. >> So, there would have been $2,300 at the end of December after he was already dead and then there would have been $2,300 at the end of January when he was already dead. So, there's two times or is there more? >> No, just just that. >> Okay. So, the two times? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. No other benefits? No other You guys haven't opened any accounts. You guys haven't uh taken any money out of his accounts, your dad's, anything like that. >> You just paid bills online or did you go get cash out? >> Just online. Okay. So, is there any other accounts out there that we need to know about? >> No, sir. >> Okay. There's no other things because we've got we've got search warrants in for all that stuff. So, we're going to get all that stuff. >> No, that's I think there's nothing else. >> Okay. So, the social security check, that's it. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. So, you guys you and David or just David? Who is it? Is it both of you guys or what? Cashing these checks. He would get money out and he would apply it to my cash app and then I would >> Does it come electronically or in the bank? >> It goes straight to his bank account. >> Whose? >> Dave seniors. >> Okay. So your dad's >> so it goes to his bank account? >> Yes, sir. >> And then Junior gets it out of there. >> Yes, sir. >> And you said put it on your cash app. >> Yes.

In his account or in your account? >> In his account. >> Okay. How much is in your cash app account right now? >> None. There's nothing in my cash app right now. >> How much did David Jr. give to you >> 200. >> Even after admitting what happened, the detectives keep testing the details because her amounts have changed repeatedly. Then the conversation moves to the money David Senior's social security payments and who was accessing them. By this point, the interrogation has moved far beyond a missing person's story. The detectives now have a timeline physical concealment, medication, and a financial connection. And the final question is what all of it was ultimately for. 200 in December and 200 in January for the watermel. >> Okay, that's it. >> That is it. >> Okay. And where' the rest of the money go? Cuz you I mean you just said >> he said he paid bills with it. >> Okay. >> He has login to all my cards. >> You don't need where that money was coming from. Am I right? >> Yeah, I knew where it was coming from. Yes. >> Okay. Okay. All right. Um well, Detective, uh Ralph's going to [clears throat] go ahead and escort you back.
