00:04:46,800 about the murders now that book is 86 00:04:50,689 --> 00:04:48,659 really rare now and I tried to look it 87 00:04:52,820 --> 00:04:50,699 up and I see in some places they're 88 00:04:56,450 --> 00:04:52,830 getting three hundred dollars for a copy 89 00:04:57,740 --> 00:04:56,460 of that book but the good news is a dick 90 00:05:01,159 --> 00:04:57,750 told me today that they're going to 91 00:05:02,810 --> 00:05:01,169 republish the book so I'm hoping that 92 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:02,820 they do that sooner rather than later 93 00:05:07,070 --> 00:05:05,370 they're going to add a few details and a 94 00:05:11,149 --> 00:05:07,080 little bit of follow-on about how the 95 00:05:13,100 --> 00:05:11,159 case winds up today but you guys if 96 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:13,110 you'll just indulge me for a minute I 97 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:14,970 just I'll just share a little bit about 98 00:05:19,939 --> 00:05:17,970 how the case came about and then when it 99 00:05:22,010 --> 00:05:19,949 comes to the part when the investigators 100 00:05:25,100 --> 00:05:22,020 arrived i'm going to rely on you guys 101 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:25,110 for all the details but what had 102 00:05:28,070 --> 00:05:26,370 happened this was the first night of 103 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:28,080 girl scout camp and the girls were all 104 00:05:34,129 --> 00:05:31,050 picked up in school buses in tulsa and 105 00:05:36,350 --> 00:05:34,139 driven to grand lake and to an 106 00:05:39,170 --> 00:05:36,360 encampment the Girl Scout camp called 107 00:05:41,810 --> 00:05:39,180 Camp Scott at the time it was the first 108 00:05:45,260 --> 00:05:41,820 night of the encampment 109 00:05:48,260 --> 00:05:45,270 when they arrived they were all allowed 110 00:05:50,060 --> 00:05:48,270 to choose their own tent mates there 111 00:05:52,190 --> 00:05:50,070 were tents set up and they were all on 112 00:05:56,900 --> 00:05:52,200 platforms so the head floors or little 113 00:05:59,480 --> 00:05:56,910 foundations in tents on top and all the 114 00:06:01,760 --> 00:05:59,490 girls shows their friends who of course 115 00:06:04,250 --> 00:06:01,770 they would choose to be their tent mates 116 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:04,260 and when all the choosing up was done 117 00:06:09,290 --> 00:06:06,210 there were three little girls that were 118 00:06:12,350 --> 00:06:09,300 left over those three girls who did not 119 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:12,360 know each other before this night we're 120 00:06:17,420 --> 00:06:14,490 going to be tent mates they were placed 121 00:06:19,150 --> 00:06:17,430 in tent number eight which there were 122 00:06:21,290 --> 00:06:19,160 only eight tenths in this particular 123 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:21,300 encampment it was called Kiowa camp 124 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:24,690 after the Kiowa Indian tribe and they 125 00:06:29,810 --> 00:06:26,610 were intent number eight which was the 126 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:29,820 farthest out and the closest to the edge 127 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:33,690 of the woods the next morning well I 128 00:06:37,190 --> 00:06:35,010 guess during the night there was some 129 00:06:40,340 --> 00:06:37,200 odd sounds heard one of the counselors 130 00:06:42,500 --> 00:06:40,350 got up and she saw a dim light moving 131 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:42,510 through the woods but when she shined 132 00:06:48,410 --> 00:06:45,570 her flashlight on it it would keep go 133 00:06:53,090 --> 00:06:48,420 out and then she began to hear some 134 00:06:55,910 --> 00:06:53,100 strange guttural groan xand grunts and 135 00:06:57,910 --> 00:06:55,920 strange animal-like sounds through the 136 00:07:00,650 --> 00:06:57,920 night that she kept trying to identify 137 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:00,660 she couldn't until she finally she said 138 00:07:04,970 --> 00:07:02,370 they just became a part of her sleep 139 00:07:07,130 --> 00:07:04,980 they went on and on and on the next 140 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:07,140 morning I believe it was that same 141 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:09,330 counselor who got up and out on the 142 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:11,130 trail which was called cookie trail 143 00:07:15,860 --> 00:07:14,490 there was found us there was a sleeping 144 00:07:17,570 --> 00:07:15,870 bag laying out in the middle of the 145 00:07:19,850 --> 00:07:17,580 trail and so of course she's thinking 146 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:19,860 what are these girls up to somebody left 147 00:07:24,710 --> 00:07:22,010 their sleeping bag out here on the road 148 00:07:26,510 --> 00:07:24,720 but went on closer inspection she 149 00:07:29,690 --> 00:07:26,520 realized that the sleeping bag was not 150 00:07:31,370 --> 00:07:29,700 empty at some point they started 151 00:07:33,590 --> 00:07:31,380 rounding up the girls and discovered 152 00:07:37,100 --> 00:07:33,600 that there were two other girls that 153 00:07:38,690 --> 00:07:37,110 were not in the right places or one of 154 00:07:40,580 --> 00:07:38,700 them I guess was in the tent but there 155 00:07:42,890 --> 00:07:40,590 were three little dead girls who had 156 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:42,900 been brutally sexually assaulted and 157 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:47,850 murdered and so began the biggest 158 00:07:54,830 --> 00:07:51,410 manhunt I guess in Oklahoma history and 159 00:07:55,580 --> 00:07:54,840 the case opened and the Oklahoma State 160 00:07:57,860 --> 00:07:55,590 Bureau of 161 00:08:00,020 --> 00:07:57,870 negation because of the complexity of 162 00:08:02,300 --> 00:08:00,030 the case because of the high-profile 163 00:08:03,890 --> 00:08:02,310 nature of the case in the heinous nature 164 00:08:07,010 --> 00:08:03,900 of the case and the fact that it 165 00:08:09,230 --> 00:08:07,020 involved three little girls the OSBI was 166 00:08:12,620 --> 00:08:09,240 called in I also would like to 167 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:12,630 acknowledge the look the families of the 168 00:08:19,010 --> 00:08:15,450 little girls tonight because having lost 169 00:08:21,590 --> 00:08:19,020 a child myself ten years ago not to 170 00:08:24,110 --> 00:08:21,600 murder thank God but having lost a child 171 00:08:26,060 --> 00:08:24,120 I realized that they missed those little 172 00:08:30,410 --> 00:08:26,070 girls still to this day every single day 173 00:08:33,770 --> 00:08:30,420 so I want to give extreme reverence to 174 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:33,780 their feelings those families and also 175 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:38,970 to the Cherokee community because in 176 00:08:44,420 --> 00:08:41,130 Oklahoma you know we're proud of our 177 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:44,430 native american heritage you know as I 178 00:08:48,050 --> 00:08:46,530 was telling one of the guys earlier you 179 00:08:50,060 --> 00:08:48,060 know that it seems like you know 180 00:08:52,670 --> 00:08:50,070 everyone I knew growing up was either 181 00:08:55,310 --> 00:08:52,680 Indian part Indian married to an Indian 182 00:08:57,410 --> 00:08:55,320 or claiming to be an Indian so it's 183 00:08:59,780 --> 00:08:57,420 something that we hold dear in Oklahoma 184 00:09:03,530 --> 00:08:59,790 not as dearly as we should I might say 185 00:09:07,070 --> 00:09:03,540 but certainly it's something that I have 186 00:09:09,350 --> 00:09:07,080 a great deal of respect for so because 187 00:09:12,590 --> 00:09:09,360 this story contains Native American 188 00:09:14,420 --> 00:09:12,600 elements on both sides of the law I want 189 00:09:18,020 --> 00:09:14,430 to say that you know we want to maintain 190 00:09:21,380 --> 00:09:18,030 our respect for the tribal people so 191 00:09:24,140 --> 00:09:21,390 we'll start from there now Arthur you 192 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:24,150 got the call that morning right after 193 00:09:28,910 --> 00:09:27,090 the girls were found I would imagine I'm 194 00:09:31,700 --> 00:09:28,920 not sure when they were found they were 195 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:31,710 found as I understand it whether we 196 00:09:37,340 --> 00:09:34,170 found by people to camp obviously the 197 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:37,350 first law enforcement on the scene I 198 00:09:44,060 --> 00:09:40,890 believe was a highway patrol trooper and 199 00:09:47,540 --> 00:09:44,070 then followed by possibly Pete Weaver 200 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:47,550 and or share a deputy sheriff so Pete 201 00:09:51,830 --> 00:09:49,370 Weaver was the sheriff of mayes county 202 00:09:54,260 --> 00:09:51,840 where the murder took place that's right 203 00:09:57,230 --> 00:09:54,270

the three Girl 209 00:10:15,670 --> 00:10:13,910 Scouts had been murdered and asked if I 210 00:10:18,730 --> 00:10:15,680 could get my hands on an airplane which 211 00:10:21,460 --> 00:10:18,740 I could and did in flew from chickasha 212 00:10:26,590 --> 00:10:21,470 where I live too well used to be an 213 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:26,600 error experience way airpark strip which 214 00:10:32,170 --> 00:10:28,370 is no longer in existence and there I 215 00:10:34,389 --> 00:10:32,180 picked up crime scene technicians and by 216 00:10:36,370 --> 00:10:34,399 the way I'm not a crime crime scene 217 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:36,380 technician I was always an investigative 218 00:10:42,780 --> 00:10:39,290 agent but mainly because I was a pilot I 219 00:10:46,210 --> 00:10:42,790 flew paul s qin aldo and Larry Mullins 220 00:10:50,199 --> 00:10:46,220 to prior where we were picked up I 221 00:10:53,980 --> 00:10:50,209 believed by OHP trooper Newton as I 222 00:10:57,579 --> 00:10:53,990 recall and driven to the crime scene and 223 00:10:59,500 --> 00:10:57,589 what I did simply was to oversee the 224 00:11:02,079 --> 00:10:59,510 collection of the evidence at the crime 225 00:11:08,650 --> 00:11:02,089 scene the body had already been removed 226 00:11:13,180 --> 00:11:08,660 I see and Harvey did you arrive that 227 00:11:18,370 --> 00:11:13,190 same morning no I did not uh I actually 228 00:11:21,250 --> 00:11:18,380 was involved in special projects and was 229 00:11:23,100 --> 00:11:21,260 about a resident agent or around a field 230 00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:23,110 inch and I was involved in special 231 00:11:30,009 --> 00:11:26,690 special operations and so was not called 232 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:30,019 in for her about a week before I would 233 00:11:39,210 --> 00:11:34,850 actually ask you to come in hmm well I 234 00:11:43,300 --> 00:11:39,220 know that shortly after these murders 235 00:11:45,519 --> 00:11:43,310 there was a cave located nearby where 236 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:45,529 there's some evidence that was directly 237 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:49,610 linked to the crime scene Arthur could 238 00:11:55,780 --> 00:11:53,050 you tell us what was found in the cave 239 00:11:57,670 --> 00:11:55,790 well there were squirrel hunters and it 240 00:12:01,870 --> 00:11:57,680 was more there were two caves involved 241 00:12:03,639 --> 00:12:01,880 in the case and I think Harvey knows 242 00:12:05,889 --> 00:12:03,649 more about the other one than I do but 243 00:12:10,449 --> 00:12:05,899 the one that he and I have discussed it 244 00:12:12,699 --> 00:12:10,459 was more like a cellar area and it was a 245 00:12:15,309 --> 00:12:12,709 very remote location and our 246 00:12:21,500 --> 00:12:15,319 understanding is that it was a childhood 247 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:21,510 haunt if you will of heart but anyway we 248 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:24,090 confident the squirrel hunters had found 249 00:12:30,660 --> 00:12:28,210 this and we accompanied I believe still 250 00:12:33,420 --> 00:12:30,670 trooper Newton if i'm not mistaken to 251 00:12:36,420 --> 00:12:33,430 the top of the cave and as memory serves 252 00:12:38,579 --> 00:12:36,430 me and again i'm going to qualify I'll 253 00:12:40,019 --> 00:12:38,589 qualify it once all this subject of my 254 00:12:45,570 --> 00:12:40,029 memory it's been a long long time ago 255 00:12:48,750 --> 00:12:45,580 but I know for sure we found a roll of 256 00:12:51,990 --> 00:12:48,760 masking tape and it was as I recall 257 00:12:54,390 --> 00:12:52,000 vividly it was an odd width it's not a 258 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:54,400 standard three quarter or one inch width 259 00:12:59,400 --> 00:12:56,890 but anyway later it was matched but torn 260 00:13:02,340 --> 00:12:59,410 edge of that roll of masking tape at the 261 00:13:06,750 --> 00:13:02,350 cave site were heart used to frequent as 262 00:13:09,510 --> 00:13:06,760 a kid it was it matched microscopically 263 00:13:13,950 --> 00:13:09,520 to the torn edge of the masking tape 264 00:13:19,140 --> 00:13:13,960 used on the flashlight that was you 265 00:13:21,269 --> 00:13:19,150 found at the crime scene and the masking 266 00:13:25,380 --> 00:13:21,279 tape on the flashlight was holding a 267 00:13:27,990 --> 00:13:25,390 plastic cover not unlike trash bag green 268 00:13:30,930 --> 00:13:28,000 as remember little hole in it we 269 00:13:36,300 --> 00:13:30,940 understand heart was a knife blind but 270 00:13:40,890 --> 00:13:36,310 so that tied without doubt the cave with 271 00:13:44,820 --> 00:13:40,900 the murder scene also I found a 272 00:13:47,610 --> 00:13:44,830 newspaper that had been used by someone 273 00:13:50,940 --> 00:13:47,620 as tissue paper toilet paper if you will 274 00:13:53,940 --> 00:13:50,950 in the field and i ran across the date 275 00:13:56,310 --> 00:13:53,950 on that I think it's April 217 it's a 276 00:13:59,760 --> 00:13:56,320 Tulsa newspaper and that became relevant 277 00:14:03,270 --> 00:13:59,770 later because the play flight which I 278 00:14:09,270 --> 00:14:03,280 just referred was is one of these square 279 00:14:12,030 --> 00:14:09,280 batteries and inside and it was it had a 280 00:14:15,510 --> 00:14:12,040 loose connection and someone had wadded 281 00:14:17,910 --> 00:14:15,520 up newspaper and put it in the back of 282 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:17,920 it to force the battery to the contact 283 00:14:23,699 --> 00:14:20,290 to get a good contact well long story 284 00:14:25,980 --> 00:14:23,709 short we later determined in fact I 285 00:14:30,030 --> 00:14:25,990 remember reading this April the 17th 286 00:14:32,010 --> 00:14:30,040 date on this Tulsa newspaper and so I 287 00:14:34,569 --> 00:14:32,020 remember speaking to someone at the Home 288 00:14:37,389 --> 00:14:34,579 Office once I got back to 289 00:14:39,689 --> 00:14:37,399 trailer and I think it was Dick it might 290 00:14:43,299 --> 00:14:39,699 have been someone else but I asked them 291 00:14:46,259 --> 00:14:43,309 the date of the newspaper that they had 292 00:14:49,989 --> 00:14:46,269 removed and we're processing for prints 293 00:14:53,079 --> 00:14:49,999 that was found inside the flashlight and 294 00:14:56,470 --> 00:14:53,089 it was able to 17th it's the exact same 295 00:15:00,220 --> 00:14:56,480 newspaper whether we so again that too 296 00:15:03,369 --> 00:15:00,230 tied at the scene and Harvey you may 297 00:15:07,689 --> 00:15:03,379 recall may not I believe we found a pair 298 00:15:09,970 --> 00:15:07,699 of glasses there in fact on reading some 299 00:15:14,859 --> 00:15:09,980 of my personal noticeably we found a 300 00:15:19,119 --> 00:15:14,869 pair of eyeglasses there as well but 301 00:15:22,479 --> 00:15:19,129 definitely the newspaper with and in the 302 00:15:26,949 --> 00:15:22,489 masking tape roll will yet and and there 303 00:15:29,710 --> 00:15:26,959 was a photograph there yeah he came well 304 00:15:33,789 --> 00:15:29,720 there was and there's where my memory 305 00:15:39,369 --> 00:15:33,799 fades I don't recall whether the trooper 306 00:15:42,129 --> 00:15:39,379 or someone prior to me found that I 307 00:15:44,319 --> 00:15:42,139 ended up with it because what I'm doing 308 00:15:46,329 --> 00:15:44,329 is flying back and forth I my notes 309 00:15:47,739 --> 00:15:46,339 reflect that I flew to oklahoma city 310 00:15:49,449 --> 00:15:47,749 picked up mullins an excellent although 311 00:15:51,159 --> 00:15:49,459 and then flew to prior and then went 312 00:15:53,699 --> 00:15:51,169 back to oklahoma city and i'm flying 313 00:15:57,929 --> 00:15:53,709 back and forth constantly with evidence 314 00:16:02,499 --> 00:15:57,939 but whether i actually found the 315 00:16:05,859 --> 00:16:02,509 photographs i don't recall now the 316 00:16:09,309 --> 00:16:05,869 photograph was was the photograph of a 317 00:16:13,479 --> 00:16:09,319 wedding and I know that you were trying 318 00:16:15,909 --> 00:16:13,489 to figure out who those people were 319 00:16:18,729 --> 00:16:15,919 because you were trying because the 320 00:16:21,819 --> 00:16:18,739 evidence in the cave linked directly to 321 00:16:26,859 --> 00:16:21,829 the crime scene but you needed to know 322 00:16:29,619 --> 00:16:26,869 who the cave was linked to and so what 323 00:16:31,590 --> 00:16:29,629 ended up happening was that picture was 324 00:16:34,829 --> 00:16:31,600 published in the Tulsa World newspaper 325 00:16:40,389 --> 00:16:34,839 asking the public for assistance and 326 00:16:42,789 --> 00:16:40,399 saying you know what you know just if 327 00:16:45,669 --> 00:16:42,799 anyone knows these people and this is 328 00:16:48,249 --> 00:16:45,679 where I want to ask Harvey so when you 329 00:16:52,239 --> 00:16:48,259 guys were out in them in the mobile 330 00:16:54,909 --> 00:16:52,249 unit I know the guys at one point looked 331 00:16:57,999 --> 00:16:54,919 up and you had walked down to the water 332 00:17:01,859 --> 00:16:58,009 can you tell me about that story do you 333 00:17:06,220 --> 00:17:01,869 know what which one I'm talking about oh 334 00:17:09,159 --> 00:17:06,230 let me put and say that when they 335 00:17:12,509 --> 00:17:09,169 finally asked me to come become involved 336 00:17:16,360 --> 00:17:12,519 in investigation they asked me to 337 00:17:21,730 --> 00:17:16,370 transport photographs of Jeanne Moreau 338 00:17:23,919 --> 00:17:21,740 hard as a possible suspect and so I was 339 00:17:31,330 --> 00:17:23,929 in my car and drove from Oklahoma City 340 00:17:34,419 --> 00:17:31,340 to focus Grove area and I had I remember 341 00:17:38,799 --> 00:17:34,429 thinking I know I hope this is not an 342 00:17:40,539 --> 00:17:38,809 Indian who has killed his children that 343 00:17:43,090 --> 00:17:40,549 was my first thoughts I just I just 344 00:17:45,129 --> 00:17:43,100 didn't want it to be an Indian to be 345 00:17:48,879 --> 00:17:45,139 involved in and killing these children 346 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:48,889 so we we got there and when I got there 347 00:17:55,389 --> 00:17:52,610 I was stopped at the gate by Sid wise 348 00:17:57,759 --> 00:17:55,399 and and should told me because I was I 349 00:18:00,879 --> 00:17:57,769 was a actually I was working undercover 350 00:18:05,430 --> 00:18:00,889 into some other other investigations and 351 00:18:08,230 --> 00:18:05,440 I was driving an unmarked car and and I 352 00:18:10,149 --> 00:18:08,240 didn't look like a OSBI agent like the 353 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:10,159 other guys look pop out I had long hair 354 00:18:15,909 --> 00:18:13,850 and and Sid stopped me and told me that 355 00:18:17,529 --> 00:18:15,919 I wasn't RAB down during I just said 356 00:18:19,990 --> 00:18:17,539 well thank you and I just going on and 357 00:18:21,580 --> 00:18:20,000 he chased me down into the camp all the 358 00:18:25,389 --> 00:18:21,590 way the camp but when I got out of the 359 00:18:28,869 --> 00:18:25,399 car the workers and others were standing 360 00:18:31,980 --> 00:18:28,879 there and they they saw him to get out 361 00:18:35,619 --> 00:18:31,990 of the car and they were faced started 362 00:18:39,360 --> 00:18:35,629 teasing me you know and Sid jumped out 363 00:18:41,919 --> 00:18:39,370 was chasing the end and so they face 364 00:18:45,340 --> 00:18:41,929 they had to cool him down and tell him 365 00:18:48,610 --> 00:18:45,350 that I was in a whiskey agent and I can 366 00:18:51,909 --> 00:18:48,620 I gave into pictures so that was my 367 00:18:53,470 --> 00:18:51,919 initial contact with with the area and I 368 00:18:58,419 --> 00:18:53,480 noticed that it was there was a lot of 369 00:19:01,060 --> 00:18:58,429 heavy growth there at the camp and there 370 00:19:04,120 --> 00:19:01,070 were trails but 371 00:19:06,639 --> 00:19:04,130 it misses if when I failed it was 372 00:19:08,830 --> 00:19:06,649 extremely dark there because there was 373 00:19:11,980 --> 00:19:08,840 no life out there and people don't 374 00:19:14,289 --> 00:19:11,990 realize because they live in towns that 375 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:14,299 there's a lot of light pollution but 376 00:19:20,740 --> 00:19:16,850 when you get out in the country like 377 00:19:22,990 --> 00:19:20,750 that where there are hardly any life at 378 00:19:25,810 --> 00:19:23,000 all and all you see is the stars in the 379 00:19:27,789 --> 00:19:25,820 heaven you see all you can see the milky 380 00:19:31,289 --> 00:19:27,799 way in all the constellations and and 381 00:19:33,759 --> 00:19:31,299 people just don't see that anymore and 382 00:19:39,190 --> 00:19:33,769 Bingley really dark and not being able 383 00:19:42,180 --> 00:19:39,200 to even see in that wooded area off the 384 00:19:46,869 --> 00:19:42,190 trails you couldn't hardly see anything 385 00:19:50,259 --> 00:19:46,879 it was a people just don't understand 386 00:19:54,399 --> 00:19:50,269 the circumstances of being out there at 387 00:19:58,629 --> 00:19:54,409 night so you almost have to be familiar 388 00:20:01,330 --> 00:19:58,639 with where you are if you are stranger 389 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:01,340 you're lost and the drift stranger you 390 00:20:07,690 --> 00:20:05,450 have no idea where you're going and and 391 00:20:09,009 --> 00:20:07,700 by that time we had we had several 392 00:20:10,899 --> 00:20:09,019 options in there they were doing 393 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:10,909 searches of the area we were looking for 394 00:20:16,269 --> 00:20:13,490 for anything that we could find where 395 00:20:18,310 --> 00:20:16,279 they had and often talked about about 396 00:20:20,710 --> 00:20:18,320 the dogs and and some of the things that 397 00:20:25,299 --> 00:20:20,720 we we were searching the areas and they 398 00:20:27,159 --> 00:20:25,309 were cliffs and that we had to climb up 399 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:27,169 into the caves into the end of these 400 00:20:32,139 --> 00:20:29,450 clips and and the search the cliffs out 401 00:20:36,490 --> 00:20:32,149 and they were full thence cliffs and 402 00:20:39,039 --> 00:20:36,500 locks were full of buzzards and and you 403 00:20:41,619 --> 00:20:39,049 would crawl up these ledges and it would 404 00:20:44,860 --> 00:20:41,629 be would be a half a dozen measures in 405 00:20:47,350 --> 00:20:44,870 there and they would come out and they 406 00:20:48,909 --> 00:20:47,360 were just nasty and and crawl up through 407 00:20:50,499 --> 00:20:48,919 the rocks and all of a sudden the 408 00:20:52,330 --> 00:20:50,509 Buzzard would come out of the rocks it 409 00:20:54,789 --> 00:20:52,340 was there was a lot of a lot of things 410 00:20:59,259 --> 00:20:54,799 that people weren't not familiar with 411 00:21:01,570 --> 00:20:59,269 doing so what I discovered that and the 412 00:21:04,990 --> 00:21:01,580 focus was on Native American and we 413 00:21:07,869 --> 00:21:05,000 started hearing stories from the local 414 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:07,879 populace about Native American legends 415 00:21:13,940 --> 00:21:11,210 and natham air connect people and what 416 00:21:16,549 --> 00:21:13,950 they were doing and and Deborah 417 00:21:21,700 --> 00:21:16,559 the officers were talking about comments 418 00:21:29,289 --> 00:21:21,710 that were made by one of the suspects 419 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:29,299 gene Leroy heart I became very nervous 420 00:21:39,350 --> 00:21:36,090 about about being confronted by a Native 421 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:39,360 American who was using Native American 422 00:21:47,629 --> 00:21:45,090 culture in a way and and I'm uh I come 423 00:21:51,620 --> 00:21:47,639 from very traditional family I found 424 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:51,630 these very traditional people and echo 425 00:21:56,990 --> 00:21:53,850 that go way back and I've always been 426 00:22:00,320 --> 00:21:57,000 involved in listen to stories of 427 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:00,330 medicine and what people were capable of 428 00:22:06,950 --> 00:22:05,250 doing and so I I was concerned about my 429 00:22:09,980 --> 00:22:06,960 safety and the guys that I was working 430 00:22:13,159 --> 00:22:09,990 with so that particular night I went to 431 00:22:15,379 --> 00:22:13,169 the one of cedar trees out there and and 432 00:22:18,830 --> 00:22:15,389 I went around the cedar tree and I 433 00:22:24,289 --> 00:22:18,840 picked the cedar from the full size of a 434 00:22:27,259 --> 00:22:24,299 tree and was going to go smoke myself so 435 00:22:31,220 --> 00:22:27,269 that smoke myself off so that having be 436 00:22:33,860 --> 00:22:31,230 a kind of fans myself and purify myself 437 00:22:35,659 --> 00:22:33,870 game down and and when you say smoke 438 00:22:41,509 --> 00:22:35,669 yourself a lot of people are familiar 439 00:22:44,629 --> 00:22:41,519 out here with the term smudging in in 440 00:22:47,120 --> 00:22:44,639

--> 00:22:52,019 you're referring to I just want to make 444 00:22:56,450 --> 00:22:53,460 that clear to anybody who might not know 445 00:22:58,490 --> 00:22:56,460 that practice what but yes so you have 446 00:23:01,580 --> 00:22:58,500 to understand it there are 39 tribes in 447 00:23:04,220 --> 00:23:01,590 Oklahoma yes there are 39 cards and and 448 00:23:06,740 --> 00:23:04,230 all these tribes have their own personal 449 00:23:12,460 --> 00:23:06,750 beliefs their personal things that they 450 00:23:18,259 --> 00:23:12,470 do and I come from the Plains tribes and 451 00:23:22,960 -->

454 00:23:31,070 --> 00:23:27,360 French in the 16th Spanish 455 00:23:33,260 --> 00:23:31,080 that's interesting that and the and the 456 00:23:35,660 --> 00:23:33,270 rest of the eye on my brother is a 457 00:23:40,460 --> 00:23:35,670 business is Sioux and Cheyenne my father 458 00:23:43,700 --> 00:23:40,470 was a rapaho triannon and so we have our 459 00:23:49,190 --> 00:23:43,710 own customs as all of these tribes do 460 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:49,200 and so I I was going to go build a 461 00:23:53,419 --> 00:23:51,210 little fire and smoke myself off and I 462 00:23:55,610 --> 00:23:53,429 had some things that but I that I 463 00:23:59,390 --> 00:23:55,620 normally carry with me for for those 464 00:24:01,370 --> 00:23:59,400 reasons Oh being trying to follow 465 00:24:03,980 --> 00:24:01,380 traditional ways and especially when I'm 466 00:24:10,070 --> 00:24:03,990 involved with Native Americans I I try 467 00:24:12,740 --> 00:24:10,080 to to focus on those things that will 468 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:12,750 not only protect and guide me and make 469 00:24:18,799 --> 00:24:16,650 me a better person and so that's what I 470 00:24:22,789 --> 00:24:18,809 was doing that since some of my some of 471 00:24:24,620 --> 00:24:22,799 my local my double agents coffees and 472 00:24:26,090 --> 00:24:24,630 they said what are you doing and they 473 00:24:27,860

from 476 00:24:38,360 --> 00:24:35,700 non-indians about using think that we do 477 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:38,370 and so I was very cautious and I under 478 00:24:44,980 --> 00:24:41,850 cautious about what I say about certain 479 00:24:48,919 --> 00:24:44,990 things in about traditional things and 480 00:24:51,710 --> 00:24:48,929 because I I don't want to be confronted 481 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:51,720 and be ridiculed and and and i refuse 482 00:24:56,409 --> 00:24:53,970 you to convene all saying because i've 483 00:24:59,810 --> 00:24:56,419 had those in casting on my entire life 484 00:25:01,580 --> 00:24:59,820 so and ida what these guys confronted me 485 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:01,590 and one of the melon icing well can we 486 00:25:05,870 --> 00:25:03,210 be part of this can

492 00:25:22,909 --> 00:25:19,049 truth and and that's what we did and 493 00:25:25,940 --> 00:25:22,919 then i also by that time I had received 494 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:25,950 some medicine for my from a medicine man 495 00:25:30,950 --> 00:25:28,890 that my mother sent me to and he had 496 00:25:33,500 --> 00:25:30,960 given me some medicine and said this 497 00:25:37,220 --> 00:25:33,510 will

--> 00:25:47,860 into the heavens and it will touch 504 00:25:52,019 --> 00:25:49,450 somebody and they will come to us and 505 00:25:53,519 --> 00:25:52,029 that's when the photographs 15 minutes 506 00:25:57,659 --> 00:25:53,529 later the photographs were identified 507 00:26:01,350 --> 00:25:57,669 the phone rang at your mobile camp there 508 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:01,360 and it was either the guy or someone 509 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:04,330 telling you that the photograph had been 510 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:06,730 I been identified by a photographer who 511 00:26:12,409 --> 00:26:10,330 had taken those wedding photos and it so 512 00:26:16,500 --> 00:26:12,419 happened that that same photographer 513 00:26:19,250 --> 00:26:16,510 taught a class at Macalester state 514 00:26:23,490 --> 00:26:19,260 prison the big prison in Oklahoma and 515 00:26:26,220 --> 00:26:23,500 one of the inmates had actually 516 00:26:29,610 --> 00:26:26,230 developed those photographs and that 517 00:26:34,350 --> 00:26:29,620 inmate was identified as gene Leroy 518 00:26:38,539 --> 00:26:34,360 heart who then became the suspect in 519 00:26:41,820 --> 00:26:38,549 this case and Jean Hart at this time was 520 00:26:46,110 --> 00:26:41,830 aside from being you know a local 521 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:46,120 football hero was a convicted felon he 522 00:26:53,580 --> 00:26:48,250 was in prison doing a couple hundred 523 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:53,590 years or something for a kidnapping rape 524 00:27:00,120 --> 00:26:56,890 and I don't know but definitely 525 00:27:04,889 --> 00:27:00,130 kidnapping and rape and because he had 526 00:27:08,490 --> 00:27:04,899 earlier kidnapped two teenage young 527 00:27:11,820 --> 00:27:08,500 pregnant women in tulsa and taken them 528 00:27:16,260 --> 00:27:11,830 out to the woods where he tried to bury 529 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:16,270 him tied them up raped and sodomized 530 00:27:23,190 --> 00:27:21,250 them and then left them there and was 531 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:23,200 going to come back and they managed 532 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:25,090 somehow to escape and he was convicted 533 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:28,330 on that sent to Macalester where he was 534 00:27:33,389 --> 00:27:30,730 incarcerated for a time and then he 535 00:27:35,430 --> 00:27:33,399 escaped and that was his status at the 536 00:27:39,210 --> 00:27:35,440 time of these murderers was he was an 537 00:27:42,060 --> 00:27:39,220 escaped convict and he was from that 538 00:27:44,310 --> 00:27:42,070 general area grew up in that general 539 00:27:46,980 --> 00:27:44,320 area he was Cherokee Indian and his 540 00:27:50,930 --> 00:27:46,990 mother a lady by the name of LM a 541 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:50,940 buckskin lived very near to camp Scott 542 00:27:54,300 --> 00:27:53,770 yes they lived in the next section 543 00:27:57,060 --> 00:27:54,310 probably 544 00:28:00,120 --> 00:27:57,070 a half a mile away that's right and 545 00:28:05,220 --> 00:28:00,130 Renee to embellish a little bit or 546 00:28:06,630 --> 00:28:05,230 expand upon the photographs I want to 547 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:06,640 say something to the effect that there 548 00:28:14,930 --> 00:28:10,530 were hundreds of suspects we had more 549 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:14,940 child molesters with people with 550 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:20,290 convictions of child molestation in that 551 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:23,050 area within a 30-mile radius I think 552 00:28:26,820 --> 00:28:24,610 than i've ever seen and i'm not 553 00:28:28,410 --> 00:28:26,830 disparaging the community is just that 554 00:28:31,350 --> 00:28:28,420 it was more prevalent than i would have 555 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:31,360 dreamed at a time my point being is that 556 00:28:37,290 --> 00:28:34,210 i'm not sure how it was given to me but 557 00:28:39,420 --> 00:28:37,300 either wilkerson or someone i was 558 00:28:42,930 --> 00:28:39,430 assigned to the heart lead and they said 559 00:28:45,180 --> 00:28:42,940 all it was and back to what Harvey was 560 00:28:47,790 --> 00:28:45,190 referring to on the photographs and what 561 00:28:51,030 --> 00:28:47,800 how you'd characterize Renee the 562 00:28:53,190 --> 00:28:51,040 situation at the prison he was an inmate 563 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:53,200 heart was an inmate it granted at the 564 00:29:00,240 --> 00:28:57,130 time all granite yes and when he yeah 565 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:00,250 and when these photographs came into 566 00:29:06,150 --> 00:29:04,090 existence again from the cave site they 567 00:29:09,540 --> 00:29:06,160 were it was a photograph for the 568 00:29:11,970 --> 00:29:09,550 listening audience of a wedding 569 00:29:14,490 --> 00:29:11,980 reception in retrospect we found that to 570 00:29:16,980 --> 00:29:14,500 be the case it was the ladies were 571 00:29:19,350 --> 00:29:16,990 dressed very well and there's a girl 572 00:29:22,230 --> 00:29:19,360 sitting at a piano playing and another 573 00:29:24,900 --> 00:29:22,240 one standing apparently about to sing 574 00:29:27,780 --> 00:29:24,910 and then it was a third photograph and I 575 00:29:30,630 --> 00:29:27,790 believe at that time that it bore that 576 00:29:33,510 --> 00:29:30,640 woman bought a remarkable resemblance to 577 00:29:36,810 --> 00:29:33,520 a photograph that also had of Hearts 578 00:29:40,950 --> 00:29:36,820 ex-wife and I invited and I interviewed 579 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:40,960 her later extensively but and I was 580 00:29:46,770 --> 00:29:44,290 certainly not the one who had developed 581 00:29:49,230 --> 00:29:46,780 the lead at granite but when these 582 00:29:51,300 --> 00:29:49,240 photographs were released the public as 583 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:51,310 you had correctly pointed out we got a 584 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:54,130 call from the participants of that 585 00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:56,170 wedding in fact maybe the right for all 586 00:30:02,480 --> 00:29:57,970 I know or maybe the lady that was in the 587 00:30:05,220 --> 00:30:02,490 picture see ya and so what happened uh 588 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:05,230 and I do believe I interviewed her 589 00:30:09,659 --> 00:30:07,690 because we we determined 590 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:09,669 and party man i'm not sure but we 591 00:30:16,070 --> 00:30:12,610 determined that there were that that 592 00:30:19,289 --> 00:30:16,080 this family for these photographs that 593 00:30:21,749 --> 00:30:19,299 founded the crime scene or at the case 594 00:30:26,009 --> 00:30:21,759 aight connected to the crime scene with 595 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:26,019 the paper and the tape the newspaper and 596 00:30:33,330 --> 00:30:30,370 the tape they had retained or hired 597 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:33,340 their photographer for the wedding was a 598 00:30:39,119 --> 00:30:36,250 man who I remember as I remember it was 599 00:30:41,190 --> 00:30:39,129 a full-time photographers and would 600 00:30:43,259 --> 00:30:41,200 shoot mug shots in this and that of the 601 00:30:47,820 --> 00:30:43,269 inmates that were being processed in 602 00:30:53,759 --> 00:30:47,830 into at granted now and he moonlighted 603 00:30:55,919 --> 00:30:53,769 as a wedding photographer with so but 604 00:30:58,919 --> 00:30:55,929 they pointed out in were adamant in the 605 00:31:02,759 --> 00:30:58,929 entire time the family that they had two 606 00:31:06,419 --> 00:31:02,769 copies of the photographs and the 607 00:31:09,090 --> 00:31:06,429 negative and so and they had never 608 00:31:11,940 --> 00:31:09,100 disseminated copies of those photographs 609 00:31:13,769 --> 00:31:11,950 anywhere else and as it turned out 610 00:31:15,659 --> 00:31:13,779 through good investigative effort and 611 00:31:20,490 --> 00:31:15,669 I'm again I I wish I knew who do 612 00:31:24,899 --> 00:31:20,500 attribute this to it was not me but the 613 00:31:27,869 --> 00:31:24,909 bureau we learned that heart was the 614 00:31:30,869 --> 00:31:27,879 photographer's assistant he worked in 615 00:31:34,019 --> 00:31:30,879 the dark room at granite which gave him 616 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:34,029 ready access obviously to these 617 00:31:38,789 --> 00:31:36,250 negatives so because I don't doubt that 618 00:31:42,419 --> 00:31:38,799 the photographer's soup them out there 619 00:31:46,230 --> 00:31:42,429 if they had a dark room and I've always 620 00:31:48,509 --> 00:31:46,240 believed that his reason for carrying 621 00:31:53,549 --> 00:31:48,519 these photographs and again when he was 622 00:31:56,669 --> 00:31:53,559 booked into jail and I think what a good 623 00:31:58,139 --> 00:31:56,679 close friend of his it was common 624 00:32:00,090 --> 00:31:58,149 knowledge that he had these photographs 625 00:32:04,590 --> 00:32:00,100 in his billfold when we carried him 626 00:32:07,590 --> 00:32:04,600 constantly and I I am of the belief that 627 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:07,600 he did so by virtue of the remarkable 628 00:32:12,539 --> 00:32:10,090 resemblance what I believed at least be 629 00:32:14,430 --> 00:32:12,549 the remarkable resemblance to one of the 630 00:32:18,659 --> 00:32:14,440 ladies in the photograph to his ex-wife 631 00:32:21,010 --> 00:32:18,669 yes yes I remember that but this 632 00:32:25,270 --> 00:32:21,020 actually the identification 633 00:32:29,380 --> 00:32:25,280 shin of that suspect actually came just 634 00:32:34,530 --> 00:32:29,390 moments after the smoking down by the 635 00:32:37,780 --> 00:32:34,540 water and that was what was so amazing 636 00:32:39,850 --> 00:32:37,790 Harvey you sent the smoke out and said 637 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:39,860 it's gonna it's going to fall on someone 638 00:32:45,610 --> 00:32:43,250 who's going to help us a few minutes 639 00:32:49,630 --> 00:32:45,620 later the phone rings you've got your ID 640 00:32:51,970 --> 00:32:49,640 you know or the beginning of identifying 641 00:32:53,290 --> 00:32:51,980 the suspect you know it's we're a little 642 00:32:55,780 --> 00:32:53,300 bit late but we're going to take a quick 643 00:32:59,080 --> 00:32:55,790 break and we'll be back in just a few 644 00:33:02,920 --> 00:32:59,090 minutes with more of the Oklahoma Girl 645 00:33:05,110 --> 00:33:02,930 Scout murders and all the mystery and 646 00:33:07,780 --> 00:33:05,120 magic that went with it we'll be right 647 00:33:09,940 --> 00:33:07,790 back you're listening the night vision 648 00:33:13,060 --> 00:33:09,950 radio I'm your host Renee Barnett if 649 00:33:18,460 --> 00:33:13,070 you're just tuning in we are talking 650 00:33:21,910 --> 00:33:18,470 with agents from the OSBI both current 651 00:33:24,250 --> 00:33:21,920 and former who were who worked on the 652 00:33:27,430 --> 00:33:24,260 notorious Oklahoma Girl Scout murder 653 00:33:32,500 --> 00:33:27,440 case that occurred in the summer in June 654 00:33:35,470 --> 00:33:32,510 of 1977 it became you know full of 655 00:33:41,170 --> 00:33:35,480 controversy and all kinds of an unusual 656 00:33:43,300 --> 00:33:41,180 twists and turns part of it due to some 657 00:33:46,750 --> 00:33:43,310 of the Native American culture that was 658 00:33:49,290 --> 00:33:46,760 brought into the investigation are 659 00:33:52,060 --> 00:33:49,300 brought into the case by the suspect and 660 00:33:56,260 --> 00:33:52,070 also later by the agents themselves as 661 00:33:59,560 --> 00:33:56,270 we just heard from Harvey Pratt he sort 662 00:34:03,220 --> 00:33:59,570 of was always living in a traditional 663 00:34:05,620 --> 00:34:03,230 Indian family and so was used to 664 00:34:09,490 --> 00:34:05,630 practicing some of the what called the 665 00:34:11,470 --> 00:34:09,500 ways or the old ways and was found by 666 00:34:14,169 --> 00:34:11,480 some of the other agents to be smoking 667 00:34:18,659 --> 00:34:14,179 himself as as we call it down by the 668 00:34:22,060 --> 00:34:18,669 water and decided to send out that smoke 669 00:34:24,460 --> 00:34:22,070 to get some help in solving this case 670 00:34:26,620 --> 00:34:24,470 identifying a suspect they got an 671 00:34:28,450 --> 00:34:26,630 immediate response we were able to 672 00:34:30,340 --> 00:34:28,460 identify a suspect due to some 673 00:34:34,330 --> 00:34:30,350 information they received immediately 674 00:34:35,820 --> 00:34:34,340 and then the chase was on but you were 675 00:34:38,530 --> 00:34:35,830 also I imagined 676 00:34:42,250 --> 00:34:38,540 checking out other suspects at the same 677 00:34:45,369 --> 00:34:42,260 time while you initially started your 678 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:45,379 manhunt for Jean Hart which I think 679 00:34:51,790 --> 00:34:47,330 became like the biggest manhunt in 680 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:51,800 Oklahoma history did you have other 681 00:34:57,670 --> 00:34:55,490 suspects during that timer once you once 682 00:35:00,630 --> 00:34:57,680 you kind of drill down on Jean Hart with 683 00:35:03,250 --> 00:35:00,640 that photograph in the physical evidence 684 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:03,260 was that pretty much your course of 685 00:35:09,849 --> 00:35:05,930 action was to just search him out in 686 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:09,859 order to investigate him I I was a 687 00:35:18,720 --> 00:35:12,890 resounding no to that I mean there's a 688 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:22,150 is a suspect for the small s if you will 689 00:35:28,150 --> 00:35:25,010 and then the prime suspect and when I 690 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:28,160 said hundreds dick was always fond of 691 00:35:34,330 --> 00:35:30,530 saying that the investigation is defined 692 00:35:36,970 --> 00:35:34,340 as the process of elimination and you 693 00:35:40,570 --> 00:35:36,980 never good investigative technique is 694 00:35:42,670 --> 00:35:40,580 never to focus on any one individual and 695 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:42,680 try to build a case against that person 696 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:48,410 because with the resources applied you 697 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:51,410 can spend countless days or months and 698 00:35:56,109 --> 00:35:53,570 and then all of a sudden eliminate him 699 00:35:59,530 --> 00:35:56,119 so you do it in a reverse we try to 700 00:36:02,650 --> 00:35:59,540 eliminate individuals as suspects by 701 00:36:04,780 --> 00:36:02,660 alibis by fingerprints later by DNA 702 00:36:07,900 --> 00:36:04,790 which we do not have available to us at 703 00:36:10,150 --> 00:36:07,910 that time but we're I'm looking at some 704 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:10,160 of I've got about two or three inches 705 00:36:20,140 --> 00:36:16,010 thick of items that we had processed 706 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:20,150 from the crime scene and submitted to 707 00:36:26,830 --> 00:36:22,130 the laboratory and we're talking about 708 00:36:29,650 --> 00:36:26,840 hair fiber just every piece of trace 709 00:36:32,230 --> 00:36:29,660 evidence that you can imagine and you 710 00:36:35,830 --> 00:36:32,240 know we're taking trace evidence from 711 00:36:39,099 --> 00:36:35,840 all of the individuals at the camp and 712 00:36:42,730 --> 00:36:39,109 every suspect PJ Pat Wilkerson and I 713 00:36:45,790 --> 00:36:42,740 another brother we flew to Colorado one 714 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:45,800 time to interview a guy who is a suspect 715 00:36:52,980 --> 00:36:49,370 and so no not buying 716 00:36:55,810 --> 00:36:52,990 I don't even know at what point we 717 00:37:02,920 --> 00:36:55,820 believe that heart was the prime suspect 718 00:37:04,870 --> 00:37:02,930 but certainly we the Bureau agents we 719 00:37:06,460 --> 00:37:04,880 felt strongly about it as did the 720 00:37:08,470 --> 00:37:06,470 district attorney's office with the 721 00:37:11,790 --> 00:37:08,480 evidence that we had ultimately accrued 722 00:37:14,620 --> 00:37:11,800 against him that bear in mind that we 723 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:14,630 charges were filed against Gino Larry 724 00:37:22,810 --> 00:37:18,890 heart when all of us knew he had had a 725 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:22,820 vasectomy yet we had sperm spermatozoa 726 00:37:30,940 --> 00:37:27,370 in the girls and and we knew also that 727 00:37:35,860 --> 00:37:30,950 the doctor hit the form that for the 728 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:35,870 sectomy was elderly and I'm not saying 729 00:37:40,330 --> 00:37:37,930 that would necessarily go with a botched 730 00:37:42,250 --> 00:37:40,340 the second me but there is such a thing 731 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:42,260 as a botched affected me and that's what 732 00:37:48,550 --> 00:37:43,970 we felt had happened and it's what 733 00:37:52,780 --> 00:37:48,560 proved to be true because going back to 734 00:37:54,850 --> 00:37:52,790 probably adding to the evidence was his 735 00:37:58,210 --> 00:37:54,860 sexual appetite was such again I 736 00:38:01,450 --> 00:37:58,220 interviewed his wife and without going 737 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:01,460 into the details it was somewhat 738 00:38:07,210 --> 00:38:03,650 stunning how she would account his 739 00:38:10,690 --> 00:38:07,220 actions in that regard just but but my 740 00:38:14,410 --> 00:38:10,700 point is and Harvey you may remember 741 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:14,420 even more about this and I do but we 742 00:38:20,620 --> 00:38:18,650 were stymied I was visiting with buddy 743 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:20,630 foul us and we were stymied as to how we 744 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:25,130 can collect legally sperm from heart to 745 00:38:33,310 --> 00:38:30,010 compare with the sperm from the case and 746 00:38:35,230 --> 00:38:33,320 you can't exactly do things that one 747 00:38:37,030 --> 00:38:35,240 might imagine that would to say the 748 00:38:40,330 --> 00:38:37,040 least shock the conscience of the court 749 00:38:43,660 --> 00:38:40,340 and I remember we discussed the finger 750 00:38:46,410 --> 00:38:43,670 wave but that I was told by a medical 751 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:46,420 person would not produce sperm only a 752 00:38:53,830 --> 00:38:51,050 the fluid and so I'm not being facetious 753 00:38:58,390 --> 00:38:53,840 when I say that the law books are full 754 00:39:00,790 --> 00:38:58,400 of cases which will allow and the exact 755 00:39:03,370 --> 00:39:00,800 language I'm about to say police 756 00:39:07,749 --> 00:39:03,380 officers can use trickery 757 00:39:10,420 --> 00:39:07,759 such a few and defeat yep in cases and I 758 00:39:12,609 --> 00:39:10,430 guess we applied that legal concept if 759 00:39:14,109 --> 00:39:12,619 you will because I don't know who came 760 00:39:18,279 --> 00:39:14,119 up with the idea and maybe you remember 761 00:39:21,609 --> 00:39:18,289 Harvey but the idea came was to provide 762 00:39:23,140 --> 00:39:21,619 him with fresh underwear and the first 763 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:23,150 time it came a big lightning and 764 00:39:30,549 --> 00:39:27,410 thunderstorm the agents obtained all the 765 00:39:36,670 --> 00:39:30,559 sperm samples they could say grace over 766 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:36,680 and it proved those proved to be the 767 00:39:45,460 --> 00:39:40,490 same deformity the sperm deformity as 768 00:39:49,359 --> 00:39:45,470 was in the girls that's right there was 769 00:39:52,779 --> 00:39:49,369 some weird mutation about that sperm 770 00:39:55,450 --> 00:39:52,789 that made it easier to identify and I 771 00:40:00,249 --> 00:39:55,460 believed that they were able to identify 772 00:40:02,349 --> 00:40:00,259 that at some point as being from a 773 00:40:03,999 --> 00:40:02,359 native american and eliminating 774 00:40:06,190 --> 00:40:04,009 something like ninety-nine point nine 775 00:40:08,829 --> 00:40:06,200 percent of the Native American male 776 00:40:10,930 --> 00:40:08,839 population we may be speaking about the 777 00:40:13,870 --> 00:40:10,940 hair fiber there do you think that would 778 00:40:15,940 --> 00:40:13,880 be right Harvey you know I think I think 779 00:40:18,130 --> 00:40:15,950 that each other's in here oh okay so it 780 00:40:20,829 --> 00:40:18,140 was the hair sample that what they were 781 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:20,839 able to eliminate like ninety-nine 782 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:24,890 percent of all Native American males but 783 00:40:33,279 --> 00:40:29,170 Jean Hart I don't recall it that way 784 00:40:37,059 --> 00:40:33,289 that would be and again you based on 785 00:40:38,859 --> 00:40:37,069 what you've studied you may be more 786 00:40:42,759 --> 00:40:38,869 knowledgeable at this time at this late 787 00:40:47,589 --> 00:40:42,769 date than myself but the hair follicle 788 00:40:50,620 --> 00:40:47,599 the examinations proved to be fairly 789 00:40:53,740 --> 00:40:50,630 unreliable they were not it was not 790 00:40:56,259 --> 00:40:53,750 where we could exclude any particular 791 00:40:58,299 --> 00:40:56,269 individual as I remember it the only 792 00:41:00,970 --> 00:40:58,309 thing the hair fiber said that it was 793 00:41:05,319 --> 00:41:00,980 from the Native American individual and 794 00:41:11,140 --> 00:41:05,329 yes go ahead yeah if you if you did it 795 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:11,150 on a national basis it was it was it was 796 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:13,130 pretty limited but if you narrowed it 797 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:15,850 down in that area the 798 00:41:22,240 --> 00:41:20,050 the possibility became slimmer hmm 799 00:41:25,650 --> 00:41:22,250 depending on the database is what you're 800 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:25,660 saying yeah yeah I'm just yeah but right 801 00:41:29,740 --> 00:41:27,890 did you just look to that area that 802 00:41:32,740 --> 00:41:29,750 there would be more

00:42:29,190 --> 00:42:26,630 case to be done that way in too much 823 00:42:31,630 --> 00:42:29,200 media scrutiny I mean this case made 824 00:42:33,010 --> 00:42:31,640 national news it could have made world 825 00:42:36,430 --> 00:42:33,020 news for all I know but I definitely 826 00:42:38,890 --> 00:42:36,440 know it made national news at the time 827 00:42:41,980 --> 00:42:38,900 it was highly controversial and 828 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:41,990 especially because of the of the three 829 00:42:49,180 --> 00:42:45,290 little girls and how heinous the crime 830 00:42:52,660 --> 00:42:49,190 was now what you had a sort of 831 00:42:55,570 --> 00:42:52,670 identified a gene heart as a suspect 832 00:42:58,960 --> 00:42:55,580 whether he was the only suspect or not I 833 00:43:00,880 --> 00:42:58,970 know that in the book written by the two 834 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:00,890 brothers Mike and dick Wilkerson called 835 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:04,010 someone cry for the

something kind of 850 00:43:50,319 --> 00:43:47,930 supernatural about what was going on 851 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:50,329 well people said he was a shape-shifter 852 00:43:55,779 --> 00:43:54,410 yes

--> 00:44:03,890 Native Americans man that's involved in 856 00:44:12,039 --> 00:44:09,799 in using those powers and you know and 857 00:44:13,990 --> 00:44:12,049 I've got nothing to say you know that 858 00:44:17,019 --> 00:44:14,000 people have been blessed by God over the 859 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:17,029 years to have certain abilities and God 860 00:44:20,559 --> 00:44:18,650 gives you certain abilities but if you 861 00:44:22,630 --> 00:44:20,569 use those abilities they become stronger 862 00:44:25,180 --> 00:44:22,640 some people never recognize their 863 00:44:27,670 --> 00:44:25,190 abilities and then never use it and some 864 00:44:30,849 --> 00:44:27,680 of us do and you go back into into 865 00:44:34,779 --> 00:44:30,859 history and and we're have been powerful

00:44:50,839 and they had gifts from God in and why 872 00:44:57,849 --> 00:44:54,799 would why would the people be restricted 873 00:45:00,190 --> 00:44:57,859 from having those abilities because they 874 00:45:01,809 --> 00:45:00,200 were from another race you know you had 875 00:45:05,499 --> 00:45:01,819 Randall from all different races that 876 00:45:08,620 --> 00:45:05,509 had powers in

00:46:04,720 --> 00:46:02,570 blessed by God to have certain abilities 897 00:46:08,260 --> 00:46:04,730 and he said and I just don't think that 898 00:46:10,060 --> 00:46:08,270 this man who has been accused of all 899 00:46:13,330 --> 00:46:10,070 these things and made charged with all 900 00:46:16,380 --> 00:46:13,340 these abuses has taken a time and the 901 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:16,390 sacrifice now we got people that do 902 00:46:22,030 --> 00:46:18,890 religious ceremonies and they go through 903 00:46:24,730 --> 00:46:22,040 a lot of ceremony and a lot of time to 904 00:46:28,150

wanted to make sure that that we 913 00:46:51,340 --> 00:46:49,010 had to have these protections that it in 914 00:46:56,950 --> 00:46:51,350 the event that we were out there in 915 00:46:58,930 --> 00:46:56,960 nature doing things that we were we were 916 00:47:01,660 --> 00:46:58,940 going to be protected and not just walk 917 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:01,670 out there and be at the mercy of 918 00:47:11,650 --> 00:47:10,010 somebody so it's a we did I asked him to 919 00:47:13,780 --> 00:47:11,660 give me certain protections you know to 920 00:47:16,210 --> 00:47:13,790 help me do these

00:47:20,990 you have to do and sacrifices that you 924 00:47:26,260 --> 00:47:23,300 have to make in order to have these 925 00:47:28,390 --> 00:47:26,270 towers to have this strength and so it's 926 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:28,400 not just you just don't give somebody 927 00:47:32,350 --> 00:47:30,410 something without a sacrifice and 928 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:32,360 without having to to go through 929 00:47:39,190 --> 00:47:35,090 something we don't believe that the 930 00:47:41,530 --> 00:47:39,200 Creator it's okay to pray but if you 931 00:47:43,540 --> 00:47:41,540 make a sacrifice and do something to 932 00:47:45,910 --> 00:47:43,550 show that you are you're really serious 933 00:47:50,710 --> 00:47:45,920 about about whatever you're asking the 934 00:47:52,210 --> 00:47:50,720 Creator God to do to help you in like a 935 00:47:53,890 --> 00:47:52,220 God looks down on just says you're 936 00:47:55,300 --> 00:47:53,900 making a bigger sacrifice rather than 937 00:47:57,250 --> 00:47:55,310 just praying and a sleep or something 938 00:47:59,920 --> 00:47:57,260 you're giving something 939 00:48:03,220 --> 00:47:59,930 you're making an effort so that's what 940 00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:03,230 we do so I just don't think now I just 941 00:48:07,150 --> 00:48:05,090 don't think that genes new your heart 942 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:07,160 could do those things because he didn't 943 00:48:12,790 --> 00:48:10,010 have I didn't think he had the stamina 944 00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:12,800 or the conviction to do them but at that 945 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:14,810 particular time I was I was concerned 946 00:48:21,790 --> 00:48:18,290 about it so I ash forgot medicines to 947 00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:21,800 help us into to make this in make us 948 00:48:26,650

00:48:44,420 help me and if I believe I have a 957 00:48:48,490 --> 00:48:46,460 certain power do you not think that that 958 00:48:51,910 --> 00:48:48,500 makes me a stronger person if I believed 959 00:48:54,580 --> 00:48:51,920 it yes I said I have the power to run 960 00:48:57,010 --> 00:48:54,590 faster at a high to be more powerful a 961 00:48:59,620 --> 00:48:57,020 type of power the bear or the power of 962 00:49:01,690 --> 00:48:59,630 the leper or something and and can I 963 00:49:05,010 --> 00:49:01,700 believe that that I had makes me a 964 00:49:08,350 --> 00:49:05,020 stronger

possibly be the killer so and that he 1155 00:58:10,169 --> 00:58:08,019 had was uh he was a he told a long in 1156 00:58:12,749 --> 00:58:10,179 dec when they were looking for me he was 1157 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:12,759 above and that he was below I don't know 1158 00:58:18,209 --> 00:58:14,890 what he means by that but I'll just 1159 00:58:20,459 --> 00:58:18,219 assume that that he could have assumed 1160 00:58:23,910 --> 00:58:20,469 you know if he was a shape changer he 1161 00:58:26,699 --> 00:58:23,920 siemens he was assuming some some other 1162 00:58:33,150 --> 00:58:26,709 animal that that we could really see as 1163 00:58:34,890 --> 00:58:33,160 a it's just a maker mm-hmm so we had 1164 00:58:38,099 --> 00:58:34,900 been out and we had actually we had gone 1165 00:58:40,439 --> 00:58:38,109 out and boxer mom lifting devices they 1166 00:58:43,769 --> 00:58:40,449 were vibratory devices that we strung 1167 00:58:45,890 --> 00:58:43,779 along the trails that if someone walked 1168 00:58:47,789 --> 00:58:45,900 then I had a receiver that would show 1169 00:58:49,559 --> 00:58:47,799 vibration that someone is walking 1170 00:58:52,229 --> 00:58:49,569 through the woods and so we had strung 1171 00:58:56,579 --> 00:58:52,239 these all out along the area there was 1172 00:59:00,809 --> 00:58:56,589 also a military group out there also 1173 00:59:02,010 --> 00:59:00,819 that was laying out kind of capture 1174 00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:02,020 somebody and they were 1175 00:59:08,100 --> 00:59:06,250 Special Forces guys about 45 and so they 1176 00:59:10,530 --> 00:59:08,110 were down down by the creek another way 1177 00:59:12,270 --> 00:59:10,540 and we were up this way and we told me 1178 00:59:18,210 --> 00:59:12,280 in our strong these devices at him and 1179 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:18,220 we had gone gone away and and we had 1180 00:59:22,050 --> 00:59:19,930 been out for quite a while and we differ 1181 00:59:23,910 --> 00:59:22,060 very small fire and we were sitting 1182 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:23,920 there and and someone actually said 1183 00:59:27,630 --> 00:59:25,690 around why did you build a possible is 1184 00:59:31,650 --> 00:59:27,640 not for the waters for the comfort of 1185 00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:31,660 fire it was just fire it just it was 1186 00:59:38,370 --> 00:59:34,690 just it was a comfort and so we were 1187 00:59:43,890 --> 00:59:38,380 there and out of them out of nowhere a 1188 00:59:45,510 --> 00:59:43,900 cat landed in my lap and just just 1189 00:59:49,020 --> 00:59:45,520 wanted out of the dark and landing in 1190 00:59:51,030 --> 00:59:49,030 Manhattan and it startled me I grabbed 1191 00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:51,040 it cleared away and and we were just 1192 00:59:56,670 --> 00:59:53,530 lured you're shocked and right away of 1193 00:59:59,040 --> 00:59:56,680 personal injury thought was that could 1194 01:00:01,620 --> 00:59:59,050 this be somebody who had shaped changed 1195 01:00:04,350 --> 01:00:01,630 and the shapeshifter an end and then 1196 01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:04,360 come to tease us and then tour business 1197 01:00:09,090 --> 01:00:07,090 and that's what we

like at the time and maybe 1225 01:01:40,069 --> 01:01:36,059 to this day was the biggest manhunt in 1226 01:01:42,870 --> 01:01:40,079 Oklahoma history there were all kinds of 1227 01:01:46,670 --> 01:01:42,880 helicopters and planes brought in and 1228 01:01:49,370 --> 01:01:46,680 different agencies were involved and 1229 01:01:52,079 --> 01:01:49,380 then they brought in these special 1230 01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:52,089 tracking dogs from Pennsylvania i 1231 01:01:58,020 --> 01:01:56,770 believe it was egg can you tell us a 1232 01:01:59,640 --> 01:01:58,030 little bit about what happened with 1233 01:02:02,760 --> 01:01:59,650 those dogs that was another strange 1234 01:02:07,349 --> 01:02:02,770 story well the dog handler was a 1235 01:02:09,150 --> 01:02:07,359 charlatan he was a fake he just being 1236 01:02:13,529 --> 01:02:09,160 criminally prosecuted and may have been 1237 01:02:15,599 --> 01:02:13,539 I have since testified at two hearings 1238 01:02:18,599 --> 01:02:15,609 regarding two separate murders one in 1239 01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:18,609 Phoenix Arizona the other in Florida 1240 01:02:26,039 --> 01:02:21,490 where people had been convicted based on 1241 01:02:29,549 --> 01:02:26,049 this man's testimony and he was Helen 1242 01:02:32,579 --> 01:02:29,559 told disrepute with with any people that 1243 01:02:34,019 --> 01:02:32,589 dog handlers with legitimate bloodhounds 1244 01:02:36,269 --> 01:02:34,029 and things like that and he was a 1245 01:02:37,950 --> 01:02:36,279 showman I can't even recall the man's 1246 01:02:40,890 --> 01:02:37,960 name I've tried to put it out of my 1247 01:02:43,289 --> 01:02:40,900 memory but the ludicrous e of it was 1248 01:02:45,210 --> 01:02:43,299 that when I recall one of the days that 1249 01:02:48,870 --> 01:02:45,220 I arrived again I'm flying back and 1250 01:02:52,079 --> 01:02:48,880 forth from Oklahoma City a lot but with 1251 01:02:54,059 --> 01:02:52,089 evidence but when I arrived there I 1252 01:02:56,940 --> 01:02:54,069 never will forget it reminded me of the 1253 01:03:01,279 --> 01:02:56,950 movie of North by Northwest and we and I 1254 01:03:04,859 --> 01:03:01,289 believe it might have been biplanes 1255 01:03:06,559 --> 01:03:04,869 because of her crop dusters and trying 1256 01:03:09,750 --> 01:03:06,569 to think of the plane I should know that 1257 01:03:11,700 --> 01:03:09,760 but a Stearman that may or may not have 1258 01:03:13,890 --> 01:03:11,710 been but they were they were treetop 1259 01:03:16,859 --> 01:03:13,900 level a little above and and they were 1260 01:03:18,870 --> 01:03:16,869 spraying the entire camp with water and 1261 01:03:21,599 --> 01:03:18,880 I recall there were two of them and 1262 01:03:24,299 --> 01:03:21,609 making pass after path I learned later 1263 01:03:28,140 --> 01:03:24,309 that this was at the request of the dog 1264 01:03:31,890 --> 01:03:28,150 handler who was wanting to push 1265 01:03:35,789 --> 01:03:31,900 this moisture the scent of the tracks of 1266 01:03:38,099 --> 01:03:35,799 the perpetrator of these crimes down 1267 01:03:40,109 --> 01:03:38,109 from the leaves and the trees back to 1268 01:03:42,809 --> 01:03:40,119 the ground or he could then follow them 1269 01:03:49,859 --> 01:03:42,819 with his dogs you just can't make it up 1270 01:03:53,029 --> 01:03:49,869 and so and then I I witnessed him in the 1271 01:03:56,370 --> 01:03:53,039 dog in the front of the canoe in a pond 1272 01:04:00,240 --> 01:03:56,380 where this dog handler was saying he was 1273 01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:00,250 snipping the pond for the murder weapon 1274 01:04:04,410 --> 01:04:02,770 or a murderer weapon or any evidence 1275 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:04,420 that might have been thrown into the 1276 01:04:11,700 --> 01:04:06,490 pond that was at the bottom of the pond 1277 01:04:15,599 --> 01:04:11,710 and I got crossways with him because I 1278 01:04:18,150 --> 01:04:15,609 recall when we had the box full of all 1279 01:04:20,339 --> 01:04:18,160 of the evidence and we had gloves and 1280 01:04:24,079 --> 01:04:20,349 included these newspapers coming back 1281 01:04:26,609 --> 01:04:24,089 from the cave where incontrovertible 1282 01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:26,619 incontrovertibly was what was linked to 1283 01:04:31,589 --> 01:04:29,890 the crime scene my gosh the the leading 1284 01:04:36,089 --> 01:04:31,599 edge of the tape at the scene of the 1285 01:04:38,730 --> 01:04:36,099 crime scene matched the torn edge of the 1286 01:04:42,210 --> 01:04:38,740 tape used to put the to diffuse the 1287 01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:42,220 light with a plastic the newspaper was 1288 01:04:50,849 --> 01:04:47,650 exactly the same edition in April 217 a 1289 01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:50,859 same edition is funding the paper of the 1290 01:04:56,490 --> 01:04:54,490 the Tulsa paper and then the photographs 1291 01:04:59,039 --> 01:04:56,500 at the crime scene later but even before 1292 01:05:01,109 --> 01:04:59,049 then there's no doubt on earth that any 1293 01:05:03,779 --> 01:05:01,119 investigator would realize instantly 1294 01:05:07,410 --> 01:05:03,789 that the crime that whoever perpetrated 1295 01:05:10,260 --> 01:05:07,420 the crime the crime scene was connected 1296 01:05:12,539 --> 01:05:10,270 to k vice versa and now the dog handler 1297 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:12,549 took his dogs up there and took one 1298 01:05:16,980 --> 01:05:14,890 sniff of this and came back and readily 1299 01:05:23,010 --> 01:05:16,990 announced that that none of this 1300 01:05:27,210 --> 01:05:23,020 evidence from the cave site was 1301 01:05:28,769 --> 01:05:27,220 connected to the crime and I got in hot 1302 01:05:30,599 --> 01:05:28,779 water because I'm asking one of my 1303 01:05:32,370 --> 01:05:30,609 supervisors you know whether we're 1304 01:05:34,950 --> 01:05:32,380 running the investigation of this dog 1305 01:05:37,260 --> 01:05:34,960 handler or maybe even the dog I didn't 1306 01:05:40,349 --> 01:05:37,270 actually say that but I drew a lot of 1307 01:05:42,089 --> 01:05:40,359 heat for that but it was just it was 1308 01:05:46,140 --> 01:05:42,099 comical and it was a 1309 01:05:48,979 --> 01:05:46,150 run to the investigation and I strongly 1310 01:05:52,769 --> 01:05:48,989 believe that outcome I haven't been 1311 01:05:56,789 --> 01:05:52,779 different but had it not have been for 1312 01:06:01,079 --> 01:05:56,799 them but you know and and while we're 1313 01:06:03,809 --> 01:06:01,089 talking about the evidence I I happen to 1314 01:06:06,630 --> 01:06:03,819 been in charge of well the largest mass 1315 01:06:08,670 --> 01:06:06,640 murders at its time in Oklahoma murder 1316 01:06:12,559 --> 01:06:08,680 of nine individuals a family of three 1317 01:06:15,269 --> 01:06:12,569 and then later six at a steakhouse and 1318 01:06:18,029 --> 01:06:15,279 if there had been a popular vote before 1319 01:06:20,789 --> 01:06:18,039 the preliminary hearing of either that 1320 01:06:24,450 --> 01:06:20,799 man roger dale stafford or flee jeanne 1321 01:06:27,029 --> 01:06:24,460 very heart there's no doubt in my mind 1322 01:06:29,219 --> 01:06:27,039 at the general election a popular 1323 01:06:32,249 --> 01:06:29,229 popular vote of guilt or innocence would 1324 01:06:35,390 --> 01:06:32,259 have exonerated heart at the time I mean 1325 01:06:38,609 --> 01:06:35,400 before preliminary hearing and found a 1326 01:06:40,829 --> 01:06:38,619 ROG Dale Stafford guilty and you 1327 01:06:43,109 --> 01:06:40,839 characterized it earlier and I read a 1328 01:06:45,029 --> 01:06:43,119 newspaper account as I was reviewing my 1329 01:06:48,239 --> 01:06:45,039 case here where they would it would 1330 01:06:52,579 --> 01:06:48,249 incessantly be referred to as former 1331 01:06:56,579 --> 01:06:52,589 Locust Grove football star yes and I 1332 01:06:58,650 --> 01:06:56,589 think dick and Mike pointed out that 1333 01:07:00,269 --> 01:06:58,660 when you have neighbors or someone you 1334 01:07:01,709 --> 01:07:00,279 know real well and you've seen them on 1335 01:07:03,839 --> 01:07:01,719 the football field and they're at the 1336 01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:03,849 hamburger joint and all you don't think 1337 01:07:08,759 --> 01:07:06,130 of them as a mad dog killer or rapist 1338 01:07:10,709 --> 01:07:08,769 you think of that he didn't match the 1339 01:07:13,140 --> 01:07:10,719 prototype if you will of a Charlie 1340 01:07:15,120 --> 01:07:13,150 Manson but it didn't match the prototype 1341 01:07:16,859 --> 01:07:15,130 either of the ROG Dale Stafford because 1342 01:07:20,190 --> 01:07:16,869 he was portrayed by the same news 1343 01:07:22,440 --> 01:07:20,200 media's my dog killer from Alabama and I 1344 01:07:26,309 --> 01:07:22,450 guess what I'm saying is the news media 1345 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:26,319 bias in this case in my opinion was just 1346 01:07:35,910 --> 01:07:28,690 astounding and it was someone of a 1347 01:07:39,109 --> 01:07:35,920 precursor in my opinion to the oj 1348 01:07:42,420 --> 01:07:39,119 simpson case because we had a minority 1349 01:07:46,650 --> 01:07:42,430 defendant there and the news media bias 1350 01:07:49,109 --> 01:07:46,660 in his paper was astronomical but the 1351 01:07:53,579 --> 01:07:49,119 other evidence that i would be remiss I 1352 01:07:55,530 --> 01:07:53,589 didn't address is that of this abduction 1353 01:07:57,030 --> 01:07:55,540 and rape of these two girls 1354 01:08:00,840 --> 01:07:57,040 going to hold off on reading any of 1355 01:08:04,380 --> 01:08:00,850 these excerpt success let guy if we 1356 01:08:06,750 --> 01:08:04,390 don't mind let me just because we've 1357 01:08:08,430 --> 01:08:06,760 only got about ten minutes left let me 1358 01:08:10,290 --> 01:08:08,440 just wrap something up real quick and 1359 01:08:12,750 --> 01:08:10,300 then I do want you to address that 1360 01:08:17,190 --> 01:08:12,760 evidence and in what you have there 1361 01:08:20,970 --> 01:08:17,200 before we close out the show just what 1362 01:08:24,450 --> 01:08:20,980 ended up happening was Jean Hart was 1363 01:08:26,849 --> 01:08:24,460 eventually captured by the OSBI and he 1364 01:08:32,010 --> 01:08:26,859 was found in the cooks and Hills deep in 1365 01:08:35,700 --> 01:08:32,020 the woods at the cabin of his so-called 1366 01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:35,710 medicine man or elder named Sam pigeon 1367 01:08:42,630 --> 01:08:38,890 there Ken yeah and so he was caught 1368 01:08:45,270 --> 01:08:42,640 there brought in when he was caught he 1369 01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:45,280 was found to he was found to have been 1370 01:08:52,140 --> 01:08:48,730 wearing women's glasses and those 1371 01:08:54,210 --> 01:08:52,150 glasses were also matched to the crime 1372 01:08:57,450 --> 01:08:54,220 scene they were stolen the night of the 1373 01:09:00,059 --> 01:08:57,460 murders out of one of the tents and he 1374 01:09:02,430 --> 01:09:00,069 came out of the the cabin wearing those 1375 01:09:06,780 --> 01:09:02,440 glasses and was taken into custody in 1376 01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:06,790 those glasses ultimately he was tried 1377 01:09:13,740 --> 01:09:11,290 and although there was this evidences 1378 01:09:16,559 --> 01:09:13,750 were going to lay out for you again that 1379 01:09:19,370 --> 01:09:16,569 basically had him dead to rights tied 1380 01:09:24,750 --> 01:09:19,380 the cave directly to the crime scene 1381 01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:24,760 tied to and the cave tied to the suspect 1382 01:09:36,180 --> 01:09:33,780 acquitted him and some people were in 1383 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:36,190 shock and other people were overjoyed 1384 01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:38,770 because they're you know football hero 1385 01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:43,210 had been exonerated now of course he had 1386 01:09:49,380 --> 01:09:47,530 to return to prison because as Arthur 1387 01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:49,390 said I think he was serving about a 1388 01:09:54,540 --> 01:09:51,850 hundred and forty-four years for the 1389 01:09:59,010 --> 01:09:54,550 brutal kidnapping and rape of two 1390 01:10:02,850 --> 01:09:59,020 teenage pregnant girls in Tulsa he was 1391 01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:02,860 an escaped convict on these charges when 1392 01:10:08,790 --> 01:10:05,530 these Girl Scout murders were committed 1393 01:10:12,359 --> 01:10:08,800 same type of crime exactly 1394 01:10:15,899 --> 01:10:12,369 and anyhow he was acquitted sent back to 1395 01:10:18,589 --> 01:10:15,909 prison in just about a month later he 1396 01:10:22,339 --> 01:10:18,599 was jogging around the prison yard and 1397 01:10:25,580 --> 01:10:22,349 inexplicably collapsed and died an 1398 01:10:29,189 --> 01:10:25,590 autopsy was performed and they were 1399 01:10:32,010 --> 01:10:29,199 unable to come up with any reason why 1400 01:10:36,030 --> 01:10:32,020 his heart simply stopped and I believe 1401 01:10:37,919 --> 01:10:36,040 gene heart at the time according to the 1402 01:10:40,770 --> 01:10:37,929 autopsy was a perfect physical specimen 1403 01:10:45,540 --> 01:10:40,780 and I believe he was about 27 years old 1404 01:10:49,799 --> 01:10:45,550 and he was there physically human 1405 01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:49,809 physical individual yes so he just 1406 01:10:55,589 --> 01:10:52,570 leaves a massive looking man and so I go 1407 01:10:58,620 --> 01:10:55,599 back to the medicine man's power and hmm 1408 01:11:01,129 --> 01:10:58,630 maybe he misused it and maybe he paid 1409 01:11:04,470 --> 01:11:01,139 the ultimate price even though he wasn't 1410 01:11:07,649 --> 01:11:04,480 convicted he ended up paying for those 1411 01:11:09,990 --> 01:11:07,659 crimes anyway but Arthur before we close 1412 01:11:13,830 --> 01:11:10,000 out we have about seven minutes to go 1413 01:11:17,549 --> 01:11:13,840 could you just review some of the very 1414 01:11:20,069 --> 01:11:17,559 strongest evidence on that the bureau 1415 01:11:22,620 --> 01:11:20,079 was able to collect well I will just 1416 01:11:25,620 --> 01:11:22,630 kind of summarize it and add to what 1417 01:11:27,839 --> 01:11:25,630 we've not yet discussed a lot I and my 1418 01:11:29,069 --> 01:11:27,849 memory is that and again I'm not saying 1419 01:11:31,709 --> 01:11:29,079 that it might not have been an 1420 01:11:34,890 --> 01:11:31,719 intervention but my memory is that he 1421 01:11:36,359 --> 01:11:34,900 had a heart failure and it had prior 1422 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:36,369 heart attacks I think it's what the 1423 01:11:41,100 --> 01:11:39,010 autopsy revealed but there's no lab 1424 01:11:43,770 --> 01:11:41,110 prism that I'm fond of it says it's 1425 01:11:46,859 --> 01:11:43,780 immoral to suspect someone when you 1426 01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:46,869 assure their guilt and I've never minced 1427 01:11:52,410 --> 01:11:50,050 words about my belief that he was guilty 1428 01:11:55,680 --> 01:11:52,420 of his difference in legal guilt and 1429 01:11:58,290 --> 01:11:55,690 moral guilt and my reference to the 1430 01:12:01,950 --> 01:11:58,300 other homicide is that I believe that 1431 01:12:05,189 --> 01:12:01,960 the case against heart was stronger than 1432 01:12:09,149 --> 01:12:05,199 the case against Stafford staffers been 1433 01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:09,159 executed since and we had a witness his 1434 01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:12,250 wife testified against him but uh to 1435 01:12:18,120 --> 01:12:15,489 summarize this well Ella me back up well 1436 01:12:21,330 --> 01:12:18,130 let me summarize that we got the the 1437 01:12:22,620 --> 01:12:21,340 cave is connected to the crime scene 1438 01:12:24,810 --> 01:12:22,630 without doubt but 1439 01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:24,820 of the tape and the leading edge 1440 01:12:28,860 --> 01:12:26,770 matching the tape on the flashlight at 1441 01:12:31,860 --> 01:12:28,870 the crime scene and the same type of 1442 01:12:34,740 --> 01:12:31,870 plastic that was there the newspaper 1443 01:12:37,200 --> 01:12:34,750 being the same date April the 17th it 1444 01:12:39,540 --> 01:12:37,210 was used as toilet paper at the cave 1445 01:12:42,689 --> 01:12:39,550 site that same portions of that 1446 01:12:45,419 --> 01:12:42,699 newspaper was used to help the battery 1447 01:12:48,419 --> 01:12:45,429 make contact the photos the photographs 1448 01:12:52,470 --> 01:12:48,429 at the cryptic at the cave which was a 1449 01:12:56,610 --> 01:12:52,480 childhood favorite a place where heart 1450 01:13:00,060 --> 01:12:56,620 would go we know was developed by him 1451 01:13:02,280 --> 01:13:00,070 those photographs and we know through 1452 01:13:04,200 --> 01:13:02,290 independent witnesses who testified at 1453 01:13:07,229 --> 01:13:04,210 the trial that he would always carry 1454 01:13:10,110 --> 01:13:07,239 them with him my belief once again is 1455 01:13:12,660 --> 01:13:10,120 the resemblance to his ex-wife we have 1456 01:13:16,379 --> 01:13:12,670 the mutated sperm and the girl's heart 1457 01:13:20,610 --> 01:13:16,389 sperm was mutated in part I suppose by 1458 01:13:22,970 --> 01:13:20,620 virtue of the botched vasectomy and then 1459 01:13:26,129 --> 01:13:22,980 the prior crime that we've not addressed 1460 01:13:27,959 --> 01:13:26,139 extensively but to synopsize that the 1461 01:13:30,180 --> 01:13:27,969 two girls to him you'd referred were 1462 01:13:33,000 --> 01:13:30,190 abducted they were tied up they would 1463 01:13:35,550 --> 01:13:33,010 put in the trunk and in reading it would 1464 01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:35,560 be comical if it wasn't so sad but in 1465 01:13:39,300 --> 01:13:37,570 reading this he would talk about they 1466 01:13:43,020 --> 01:13:39,310 didn't object they went along with it 1467 01:13:45,209 --> 01:13:43,030 well he he gagged tied to put duct tape 1468 01:13:47,970 --> 01:13:45,219 on their face and he tied them up with 1469 01:13:53,220 --> 01:13:47,980 one quarter inch I don't know this nylon 1470 01:13:56,729 --> 01:13:53,230 or court cotton I think nylon rope and I 1471 01:13:59,550 --> 01:13:56,739 photographed those and the knots are the 1472 01:14:02,220 --> 01:13:59,560 exact knots it's the same size core the 1473 01:14:04,379 --> 01:14:02,230 same size not and the same type of knot 1474 01:14:07,229 --> 01:14:04,389 so that the girls at the girls counts 1475 01:14:10,310 --> 01:14:07,239 were tied up with and this man has never 1476 01:14:13,620 --> 01:14:10,320 I beg your pardon in the same manner 1477 01:14:15,689 --> 01:14:13,630 yeah you got it exactly exactly in the 1478 01:14:18,270 --> 01:14:15,699 same manner thank you very much tied in 1479 01:14:21,390 --> 01:14:18,280 the same manner with the same size it's 1480 01:14:24,149 --> 01:14:21,400 the same MO period and so here he had 1481 01:14:26,490 --> 01:14:24,159 abducted Rhett tied up and raped these 1482 01:14:28,620 --> 01:14:26,500 two women left him for dead because he 1483 01:14:30,780 --> 01:14:28,630 left him tied up in a creek that had it 1484 01:14:34,669 --> 01:14:30,790 rain they could have drowned because of 1485 01:14:36,930 --> 01:14:34,679 suffocated I think he put a gag them and 1486 01:14:39,660 --> 01:14:36,940 so again the 1487 01:14:43,830 --> 01:14:39,670 evidence i just think was overwhelming 1488 01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:43,840 now in fairness to the jury and i bought 1489 01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:46,570 for many years I felt the jury had 1490 01:14:54,930 --> 01:14:51,130 succumbed to the bias and they were home 1491 01:14:57,390 --> 01:14:54,940 town local football star and all that 1492 01:15:00,360 --> 01:14:57,400 but I really don't fault the the judge 1493 01:15:05,100 --> 01:15:00,370 at all did a masterful job I think or 1494 01:15:07,890 --> 01:15:05,110 the jury or Garvin Isaacs uh who was the 1495 01:15:10,500 --> 01:15:07,900 defense attorney exactly and he did a 1496 01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:10,510 stellar job I have to grudgingly say 1497 01:15:16,500 --> 01:15:13,210 because we're only on the side of it but 1498 01:15:18,540 --> 01:15:16,510 you know as a young man you young OSBI 1499 01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:18,550 agent i viewed defense attorneys backed 1500 01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:20,410 in is the enemy if you will they're not 1501 01:15:25,170 --> 01:15:22,690 defense attorneys job is to force the 1502 01:15:26,910 --> 01:15:25,180 state to meet the burden of proof and we 1503 01:15:29,850 --> 01:15:26,920 have to give credit where credit is due 1504 01:15:31,890 --> 01:15:29,860 because Garvin isaacs did a very good if 1505 01:15:34,800 --> 01:15:31,900 not masterful job of doing that and 1506 01:15:37,950 --> 01:15:34,810 really where the jury is concerned we as 1507 01:15:40,170 --> 01:15:37,960 agents were sure of hearts guilt but we 1508 01:15:42,870 --> 01:15:40,180 were armed with the knowledge not 1509 01:15:45,090 --> 01:15:42,880 available to the jury we knew about the 1510 01:15:47,130 --> 01:15:45,100 kidnapping rape and leaving four dead of 1511 01:15:51,180 --> 01:15:47,140 these two women tied up with the same 1512 01:15:53,040 --> 01:15:51,190 chords same manner same MO exactly is 1513 01:15:55,920 --> 01:15:53,050 the same not used to tie up the Girl 1514 01:15:59,340 --> 01:15:55,930 Scouts but the judge disallowed that 1515 01:16:03,209 --> 01:15:59,350 testimony because uh it's prejudicial 1516 01:16:06,380 --> 01:16:03,219 effect outweighs its probative values 1517 01:16:09,600 --> 01:16:06,390 and you know it seems like today you 1518 01:16:13,439 --> 01:16:09,610 could say you know that you could they 1519 01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:13,449 would allow it because it is represents 1520 01:16:21,570 --> 01:16:18,250 a similar mo well you need and we argued 1521 01:16:24,270 --> 01:16:21,580 that as the common scheme and design and 1522 01:16:26,910 --> 01:16:24,280 the mo would be the same but it was it 1523 01:16:30,090 --> 01:16:26,920 again the judge ruled that it was that 1524 01:16:32,610 --> 01:16:30,100 that value is the judge recognized and 1525 01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:32,620 have that value but it did not outweigh 1526 01:16:37,170 --> 01:16:35,050 the prejudicial effect because as you 1527 01:16:41,970 --> 01:16:37,180 know you can't introduce evidence of a 1528 01:16:44,360 --> 01:16:41,980 prior crime to a jury at that stage if 1529 01:16:46,950 --> 01:16:44,370 it had been convicted and to enhance the 1530 01:16:49,830 --> 01:16:46,960 punishment you can do that but there's 1531 01:16:52,710 --> 01:16:49,840 no way had the judge done that 1532 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:52,720 had had the jury known about this prior 1533 01:16:57,960 --> 01:16:55,210 act exactly the same MO with the knots 1534 01:17:00,600 --> 01:16:57,970 and and the cord leaving them for dead 1535 01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:00,610 they may have convicted him but I 1536 01:17:04,500 --> 01:17:02,410 there's no doubt in my mind it would 1537 01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:04,510 have been reversed by the Oklahoma Court 1538 01:17:09,690 --> 01:17:07,690 of Criminal Appeals because based on 1539 01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:09,700 judicial error I don't think there's a 1540 01:17:14,700 --> 01:17:12,010 way in the world that He they would have 1541 01:17:17,790 --> 01:17:14,710 he could have allowed it in exactly and 1542 01:17:22,290 --> 01:17:17,800 and so you know it's just one of these 1543 01:17:25,590 --> 01:17:22,300 things it was an anomaly and you get 1544 01:17:27,720 --> 01:17:25,600 into burden of proof that's not a fixed 1545 01:17:30,510 --> 01:17:27,730 thing you can paint green and define 1546 01:17:32,940 --> 01:17:30,520 well the burden of proof i think is like 1547 01:17:36,270 --> 01:17:32,950 snowflakes there's never been to juror 1548 01:17:39,510 --> 01:17:36,280 that juries apply it exactly in the same 1549 01:17:41,190 --> 01:17:39,520 manner not one of 12 jurors would kind 1550 01:17:44,310 --> 01:17:41,200 of have the same opinions and he's put 1551 01:17:48,330 --> 01:17:44,320 all 12 together the burden of proof is 1552 01:17:51,090 --> 01:17:48,340 very fluid and I do believe that the 1553 01:17:55,050 --> 01:17:51,100 jury placed an unreasonably high burden 1554 01:17:59,040 --> 01:17:55,060 on the state of Oklahoma in this case I 1555 01:18:01,860 --> 01:17:59,050 would like to have the state ask for a 1556 01:18:04,830 --> 01:18:01,870 change of venue all right fire strong 1557 01:18:06,660 --> 01:18:04,840 you know and I know that was impossible 1558 01:18:08,700 --> 01:18:06,670 because law enforcement can't ask you to 1559 01:18:11,610 --> 01:18:08,710 change man you only the defendant can 1560 01:18:13,320 --> 01:18:11,620 well that I was ever going to happen but 1561 01:18:15,840 --> 01:18:13,330 you know what
