He walked right into where they were. 153 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,960 It's been stated that Mickey was yelling, 154 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,960 just don't hurt my wife, don't hurt my wife. 155 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:30,960 And I'm sure he told her to get out of there, to run after he was hit. 156 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,960 And she didn't make it. 157 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:43,960 Investigators found it odd that the killers would ride to the crime scene on bicycles. 158 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,960 The gunman also failed to use silencers on their weapons. 159 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,960 Detective Griggs believes one explanation might be 160 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,960 that the killers planned to abduct Mickey and Trudy before killing them, 161 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,960 intending to make their escape in the Thompson's van. 162 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:05,960 Possibly they planned because of the stun gun and no silencers 163 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,960 to maybe bring them back in the house or take them somewhere away from the location, 164 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,960 where they could do it and the lack of silencers wouldn't make any difference. 165 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,960 Almost a year has passed since a double homicide. 166 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,960 Mickey's son and sister want to know not only who killed Mickey and Trudy, 167 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,960 but who may have ordered it done. 168 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:37,960 I want to see this person or persons brought to justice in the very, very worst way. 169 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,960 And I'm going to do anything I can with whatever it takes. 170 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:51,960 There is something inside of you that says, yes, I do want those people punished. 171 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,960 It was just a very cowardly thing to do. 172 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,960 After 13 years of investigation, police arrested Thompson's 173 00:10:59,960 --> 00:11:01,960 former business partner Michael Goodwin. 174 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,960 We do believe that Mr. Goodwin orchestrated the murders. 175 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,960 We believe he planned the murders and we believe that his motive was based on 176 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,960 a personal vendetta along with financial gain. 177 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:16,960 There is simply no evidence, nor has there ever been, that implicates Mike Goodwin of the murders. 178 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,960 The key innuendo or motive has always been the alleged civil dispute 179 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,960 between Mike Goodwin and Mickey Thompson. 180 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,960 Mike negotiated a settlement with Mickey Thompson. 181 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,960 There are third party witnesses that confirm that. 182 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,960 There was no motive to kill Mickey Thompson. 183 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,960 Sheriff's investigators claim that an eyewitness recently came forward 184 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,960 and identified Michael Goodwin as a man seen sitting in a station wagon 185 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:44,960 in the Thompson's neighborhood, spying on them with binoculars several days before the murders. 186 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:50,960 We've taken his exact description of where he says he saw the vehicle 187 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:55,960 and Mr. Goodwin and we've basically reenacted it and it's almost hilarious. 188 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,960 You would not be able to see Mickey and Trudy Thompson's home from there. 189 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,960 The charges against Mike Goodwin are entirely meritless. 190 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:07,960 There's no evidence and that's just not my viewpoint. 191 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,960 No charges were filed for 13 years in this case and there's a reason for that. 192 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:16,960 The district attorney didn't file charges because there was no evidence against Michael Goodwin. 193 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:38,960 Music 194 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:44,960 When we return the case of Michael Wade Mohan, a man that prisons cannot hold. 195 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,960 After three successful escapes, he is still on the run. 196 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:53,960 He's a very definite threat to anybody, you know, any citizen, anywhere. 197 00:12:53,960 --> 00:13:05,960 Music 198 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:09,960 New Year's Eve, 1983, Fountain Valley, California. 199 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:14,960 Music 200 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:21,960 After being called to the scene of a reported burglar, police became involved in a high-speed chase with the suspects. 201 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:29,960 The chase ended in the parking lot of a condominium complex. 202 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,960 Officer Kevin Arnold took off after one of the two suspects. 203 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,960 I've been involved in another vehicle, in other foot pursuits. 204 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,960 I've arrested burglar suspects before where everything is supposed to go a certain way. 205 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:46,960 We chase him and tell him to get down the ground, he gets down the ground and we handcuff him and that's the end of the problem. 206 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:51,960 This one, all of a sudden he wasn't obeying my commands. 207 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,960 Music 208 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,960 We're struggling over the gun and I realize that he's trying to kill me. 209 00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:04,960 In order to avoid being shot, Arnold tried to empty his revolver into the air. 210 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:06,960 I know there's one left! 211 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,960 Five out of six shots were fired. 212 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,960 Arnold then reached for his second service revolver. 213 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,960 He fired five shots at his adversary. 214 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,960 The man survived. His name was Michael Wade Mohan. 215 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:27,960 When they checked their records, police discovered that Mohan had five pages of previous convictions. 216 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,960 He was known as a master of disguises and often used them to escape capture. 217 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,960 Can you just turn on your head to the right? 218 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:44,960 After his arrest in Orange County on New Year's Eve 1983, Mohan remained in police custody for a year while he awaited trial. 219 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:55,960 He underwent physical therapy at a local hospital outside of jail for the six bullet wounds sustained during his struggle with Officer Arnold. 220 00:14:55,960 --> 00:15:03,960 Well one day when he was going to therapy, there was a nurse that was talking to someone else and she made a mistake by saying out loud that 221 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,960 he was going to be coming again on a certain day. 222 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:11,960 And of course Mohan is a type of person that would file that away for future use. 223 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:24,960 On January 17th 1985, the date the nurse had mentioned, Mohan arrived at the hospital. 224 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:29,960 As they got to the back door of the therapy building, Michael started to walk in. 225 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,960 And as he walked in, he stumbled and fell forward. 226 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,960 Don't move or I'll shoot. Now handcuff yourself. 227 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,960 When he came up he had a gun and of course he got to drop on deputy finding. 228 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,960 Let's go man, get him on. 229 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,960 Up against the wall. 230 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:55,960 Once he had the deputy handcuff himself, he took a second set of cuffs, moved him down the hall and used that set of cuffs to cuff him to a fire pipe. 231 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:57,960 That's cool. 232 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:03,960 Heal this? Yeah, I'd heal it. 233 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:10,960 As Mohan was leaving the building, he told the deputy to stay there and not to make any noise and it was his lucky day. 234 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:16,960 And at that point he backed out of the door, ran to a waiting pickup truck where his wife Sharon was waiting in the parking lot, 235 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,960 jumped in the truck and they drove away and made good to escape. 236 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:21,960 I gotta get into my clothes. 237 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:23,960 Clothes are in that bag on the floor. 238 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:29,960 During the course of the follow-up investigation, it was our conclusion that it was Sharon Mohan that had been driving the truck. 239 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:36,960 We also felt that she was the one that planted the gun and when we took her into custody a couple of days later, 240 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:41,960 we arrested her for 18 and a bedding and she eventually pled guilty. 241 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:46,960 Sharon Shaw Mohan was sentenced to three years in jail for her involvement in the escape. 242 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:52,960 She has since been paroled and authorities believe she has rejoined her husband. 243 00:16:52,960 --> 00:17:00,960 One week after his daring escape, Mohan surfaced in Mesa, Arizona and again became involved in a high-speed chase with police. 244 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:12,960 At speeds that sometimes exceeded 100 miles per hour, Mohan led police on a two-hour chase. 245 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,960 A number of units were in pursuit and still Mohan kept ahead of them. 246 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,960 A helicopter joined in the hunt. 247 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:32,960 Police believe that Mohan deliberately prolonged the dangerous chase, hoping the helicopter would run out of fuel. 248 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:37,960 He didn't count on a second chopper taking over from the first. 249 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,960 The chase covered so many miles that eight different police departments were involved. 250 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:50,960 Finally, a barricade was set up. 251 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,960 And the chase came to an end. 252 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,960 Once again, Mohan was under arrest. 253 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,960 As he was taken into custody, police were surprised how friendly he seemed. 254 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,960 Unusual behavior for a man who was facing a serious charge. 255 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:30,960 During his interrogation, Mohan maintained a false identity but made little effort to hide the fact that he was lying. 256 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,960 First of all, I don't really even know you. What's your name? 257 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,960 Claude Banks Tillman. 258 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:38,960 Banks family name? 259 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,960 Not the money name. 260 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:41,960 That's a good name. 261 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:47,960 As we began the interview here, it got to the point where we kind of realized between the two of us that he... 262 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,960 He wasn't who he really said he was. 263 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:57,960 And he had kind of a smirky attitude with him that my name is Claude Tillman until you find out differently. 264 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:08,960 The following morning, as Detective Ryan was leafing through some newly arrived wanted posters, he came across one identifying Michael Mohan. 265 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,960 He realized that this was the face of the man they knew as Claude Tillman. 266 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:13,960 Excuse me, Bob. 267 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:14,960 Sure. 268 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,960 Did you put these in here today? 269 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:17,960 Yeah. 270 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,960 This is the guy that... this is Tillman. The guy I talked about. 271 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:22,960 No. 272 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:23,960 Yeah. 273 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:24,960 I'll call Orange County. 274 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:34,960 At that moment, unbeknownst to the authorities, their quarry was shackled to seven other convicts, two of them women, on his way to the Tempe courthouse. 275 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:41,960 After Mohan's preliminary hearing, I drove the inmates over to the Tempe Justice Court. 276 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,960 I had one inmate that had to go in there for a preliminary hearing. 277 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:50,960 I parked in front of the court, secured the van, took the prisoner inside. 278 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:52,960 I was inside approximately ten minutes. 279 00:19:53,960 --> 00:20:03,960 During those ten minutes, Mohan and an accomplice kicked out a window in the front of the van and escaped by running toward the crowded campus of Arizona State University. 280 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:10,960 Well, apparently our investigators had talked to the people in the van that had stayed. 281 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:21,960 The two young ladies related that Mohan and his accomplice had planned on jumping me, taking my gun and killing me, thereby giving them a gun and ammunition to affect their escape. 282 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:30,960 But the young ladies had been given a release that day of their duty, released that evening, and they pleaded with Mohan to attempt to kick out the licks on glass as opposed to kill me. 283 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,960 And fortunately he tried that and it did work for him. 284 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:48,960 Mohan and his accomplice, Jeffrey Leslie, stole a truck from an auto mechanic and drove away to freedom. 285 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,960 Update, Mobile, Alabama. 286 00:20:52,960 --> 00:21:04,960 Within minutes after the story first aired, the local FBI office received a call from a viewer who reported that she recognized Michael and Sharon Mohan. 287 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:13,960 The tipster that called in indicated that she had seen Mohan and his wife in Mobile. 288 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:19,960 And that they were using an assumed name of Steve and Mary Bostwick. 289 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:27,960 At first I didn't think it was him and then I noticed her immediately. There was no doubt. 290 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:33,960 Then when they shot back on his photographs, I knew with beyond a doubt. 291 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:44,960 The caller told authorities that Mohan and his wife were living in a trailer located behind a house just outside of Mobile. The FBI staked out the trailer. 292 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:54,960 Known in April the 19th, two individuals, a man and a woman, who fit the description of Michael Mohan and Sharon Mohan, departed that area. 293 00:21:54,960 --> 00:22:00,960 And then proceeded to the community of Pritchard, Alabama. 294 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:13,960 And they went to an auto park store and after Mr. Mohan came out of the auto park store, he was arrested along with his wife, Sharon Mohan. 295 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:22,960 On July 7th, Michael Wade Mohan was returned to Orange County, California and is currently in custody awaiting trial. 296 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:30,960 Sharon Mohan was returned to a Northern California correctional facility for violating her parole. 297 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:55,960 Coming up next in the mountains of Colorado, 12 reliable witnesses claim to have seen evidence of a mysterious creature the Indians called Sasquatch, which the world knows as Bigfoot. 298 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:10,960 Fikes Peak, Colorado, 100,000 acres of dense wilderness around this majestic mountain. 299 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:15,960 For centuries this forest has been a sanctuary for bobcat, black bear and mountain lion. 300 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:20,960 But recently there have been reports of a different kind of animal roaming the woods. 301 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:26,960 Basically looked like a big man or a big shape coming toward us and we turned around and started running. 302 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:33,960 It had long hair hanging off its arms and its legs. It had a small torso but long legs and long arms. 303 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,960 Whatever these creatures are, I believe they're more human than ape. 304 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:48,960 I believe that possibly there may be a group of anywhere between seven and possibly ten, a small band of these creatures living here in the Pikes Peak region. 305 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:54,960 For hundreds of years strange ape-like creatures have been seen across the western United States. 306 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:59,960 The Indians call them Sasquatch. Today they are known by the name Bigfoot. 307 00:23:59,960 --> 00:24:06,960 Until recently many share the prevailing belief that these sightings are either hoaxes or the misidentification of common animals. 308 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:17,960 But today in Colorado new physical evidence seems to substantiate the numerous eyewitness reports, suggesting that perhaps, just perhaps, there really is a Bigfoot. 309 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:28,960 On the morning of March 27th 1987 local resident Dan Messiah's son discovered a set of mysterious tracks in the newly fallen snow. 310 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,960 Hey dad, look at this! 311 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,960 What do you got? 312 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,960 There's some weird tracks! 313 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,960 Though Dan has spent much of his life in the outdoors, he didn't recognize the tracks. 314 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:51,960 Upon examination of the footprints I determined that it was something very strange and related to the past footprints we had seen around our home. 315 00:24:51,960 --> 00:25:01,960 The next night on a hunch my son and I stayed up late downstairs we watched television and every 15 or 20 minutes I kept going to my window. 316 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:09,960 At quarter of 12 I went to my window. A few seconds later I could see two large creatures running down the road. 317 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:19,960 One of them was a small one which was about 5 foot 6, 5 foot 7 and the other creature was about 6 foot maybe 6 foot 2. 318 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:28,960 And other than the hair which appeared to be covering their body they looked just like human beings. 319 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,960 Put your hand down there so we can take a photograph. 320 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:39,960 The next day Dan took pictures of the tracks. These are the actual photographs. 321 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:47,960 The large set is almost a foot long and the smaller set is 8 inches in length. 322 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:56,960 Animal physiologist Von Langen believes that this plaster replica fits the foot that made the Colorado tracks. 323 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:02,960 There's nothing that might be North American. There's no way for us to identify a foot like this. 324 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:11,960 The print itself does not fall into any of the normal grizzly bear bear North American species classifications. 325 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:17,960 The foot the way it is now been presented is a primate foot. 326 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:28,960 If there is an unknown bipedal hominid like creature living in the Pikes Peak region it would be the discovery of the century. 327 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:33,960 Dan Messiah's nocturnal sighting was featured in a number of local papers. 328 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:40,960 He was contacted by 12 other witnesses who had a similar encounter. 329 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:51,960 One summer afternoon in 1978 Jeremy Swisher and five companions came face to face with an extraordinary creature while hiking near the Pikes Peak area. 330 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:56,960 We came around the base of this big rock and we saw this it looked like an individual. 331 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,960 It had turned around and it was coming toward us. It started to chase us. 332 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:06,960 It looked like a fairly good size man. It was around six foot tall. That's the shape of it. 333 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,960 The arms might have been a little bit longer than normal. 334 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:15,960 The run was more or less like that of an athlete, a man of some sort. 335 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:21,960 It was right across the road from us and that scared us enough to take off the rest of the way home. 336 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:30,960 For years eyewitnesses have claimed to have seen a creature like Bigfoot particularly in the Pacific Northwest. 337 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:37,960 The recent sightings in Colorado have all occurred in the newly populated area close to the boundaries of the Pike National Forest. 338 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,960 Some of these witnesses prefer to remain anonymous. 339 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,960 I'm positive that I saw some type of creature. 340 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:53,960 It was the strangest thing I've ever seen in my life. It wasn't a bear. 341 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,960 It wasn't like anything I've ever seen before. 342 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,960 I had a fear in me. I got out of the truck and it passed me. 343 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:10,960 I got behind it but I got clear enough distance because I wasn't about to go tackle it or anything. 344 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:18,960 But it seemed to have the figure of a human being except it had hair everywhere on its body. 345 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,960 I didn't see the face at all but it had hair covering its body. 346 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:30,960 In early August 1988 a cabin was broken into by a large animal. 347 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:40,960 When the owner rushed to the back porch the intruder had vanished but the cabin door had sustained considerable damage. 348 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:50,960 The next morning two boys found that whatever had broken in had left tufts of hair snagged in the screen door. 349 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:55,960 We sent this hair to a diagnostic laboratory at the University of California at San Francisco. 350 00:28:55,960 --> 00:29:00,960 This laboratory is one of the world's leading centers for analysis of this type. 351 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:08,960 I've tested these hairs for all the major groups of mammals that have large specimens like deer, bear and so forth. 352 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,960 And it only reacts with the primates. 353 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,960 And of the primates it only reacts with hominoids. 354 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:20,960 And there are only five hominoids, human, chimpanzee, gorilla, orangutan and gibbon. 355 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,960 And I've eliminated all of those except human and chimpanzee. 356 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:29,960 So it's some large animal closely related to human and chimpanzee are one of those. 357 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:35,960 And it's hard to see how that could have escaped detection over thousands of years. 358 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:41,960 Biological artist Carol Maracle was able to create a composite from four eye witnesses. 359 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:48,960 It showed a huge, hairy, humanoid creature that closely resembled other descriptions of Bigfoot. 360 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:53,960 Is it possible that this legendary creature might exist? 361 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,960 For centuries people have reported encounters with Bigfoot. 362 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,960 It could be that these reports are hoaxes, the products of over eager imaginations. 363 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,960 But there is a remote chance that a handful of these creatures do exist, 364 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:10,960 hidden away in the vast unexpored wilderness of Colorado and the Pacific Northwest, 365 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:15,960 until hard physical evidence appears skeptics will continue to doubt the validity of these sightings. 366 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,960 But skeptics have occasionally been wrong. 367 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,960 On November 12th, 1936, in a bank located in Ripon, Wisconsin, 368 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:36,960 a man named George J. Stein opened up a savings account for $120. 369 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:42,960 Stein left no social security numbers on file and no home address. 370 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:47,960 Between 1936 and 1952, George J. Stein opened dozens of bank accounts, 371 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:52,960 primarily in savings and loans throughout the Midwest. 372 00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:01,960 But Stein never returned to reclaim his fortune. 373 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:06,960 Today it totals an excess of $130,000. 374 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:11,960 Why would a man deposit thousands of dollars and never come back? 375 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,960 There are many similar unclaimed bank accounts around the country, 376 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,960 but few are as large and as mysterious as those opened by one George J. Stein. 377 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:22,960 Two investigators have developed theories as to who Stein was. 378 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,960 One believes he was a traveling salesman, the other notorious bank robber. 379 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:31,960 If someone can unravel this mystery and prove that they are related to George J. Stein, 380 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:36,960 they would inherit over $130,000. 381 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,960 Stein's deposits were scattered across the Midwest. 382 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,960 There were three accounts in the states of Minnesota and Indiana, 383 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:49,960 and at least one in each of the states of Iowa and Illinois and five in Wisconsin. 384 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:53,960 There is also a possibility of a Stein account in Texas. 385 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:59,960 Investigator Tom Becker became interested in one small deposit made in Indianapolis. 386 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:08,960 Finally, in desperation, I thought, well, let's check this little 387 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,960 little $185 account, maybe we'll come up with something. 388 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:16,960 Also, this was the only one that I could find where he gave an address 389 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:22,960 other than general delivery or YMCA or on the account it might say address unknown. 390 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:27,960 He gave an address of 505 Washington Street, Indianapolis. 391 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,960 This address turned out to be Indlin Jobbers, 392 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,960 a company that made men's hats, gloves and other accessories. 393 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:39,960 Earlier, Tom had found a physical description of the elusive Stein, 394 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:44,960 and he was able to match it with descriptions of a traveling salesman named Ralph Barnett. 395 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:51,960 Barnett's sales territories overlapped the town from which many of Stein's deposits were mailed. 396 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:53,960 How much do you want for him? 397 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:54,960 $40. 398 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:55,960 Good. 399 00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:00,960 So as he acquired more money than he needed for living expenses, 400 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,960 my theory is he would bail it to one of these savings and loans. 401 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:11,960 In checking the records, I can't find any case where he dealt with two savings and loans at the same time. 402 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,960 And I think this had to do with the $5,000 insured limit. 403 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,960 He didn't want too much in any one savings and loan. 404 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:25,960 My own theory on this is that Barnett, or whoever George J.
