1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,640
This program is about unsolved mysteries. Whenever possible, the actual family members

2
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:13,720
and police officials have participated in recreating the events. What you are about

3
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,720
to see is not a news broadcast.

4
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:27,040
December 1988. 82-foot freighter named the Freedon set sail for Haiti with seven crewmen,

5
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:32,880
a dashing young German captain and a beautiful 23-year-old journalist Lisa Bishop. A few days

6
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:37,080
later, the Freedon vanished without a trace.

7
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:41,400
Twenty-four-year-old Adam Hecht struggled with the paradox of his own affluent lifestyle

8
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:47,280
and the poverty he saw in the back alleys of Beverly Hills. In 1989, he befriended a homeless

9
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:53,880
person and even invited him to share his apartment. Now Adam Hecht is missing.

10
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:58,720
In the final days of World War II, a fortune in golden precious jewels was allegedly smuggled

11
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:04,200
out of the infamous concentration camp at Dahau. Today there is compelling evidence that this

12
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:09,880
buried treasure still lies beneath a mountain lake in Austria.

13
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,200
Also tonight, an update on the case of a former mental patient who disappeared after her boyfriend

14
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:19,760
was murdered. Maria Armstrong is now in custody thanks to an anonymous tip received after

15
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:25,680
a recent broadcast of the story. Join me. You may be able to help solve a mystery.

16
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:24,520
The main conception of the Caribbean is that it is a playground for tourists and paradise

17
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:32,520
for those lucky enough to live there. In actuality, the gulf between have and have nots is dramatic.

18
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,960
Nowhere are these contrasts more evident than in Haiti, where the average income is less

19
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:45,960
than $300 per person per year. Today the Caribbean is crisscrossed by dilapidated freighters overloaded

20
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:51,720
with miscellaneous and often stolen goods heading to this impoverished island. Smugglers

21
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:57,280
also abound in the area. Guns, narcotics and stolen merchandise are continually being

22
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:04,280
transported to and from Miami. January 1989, Falcon jets from the United States Coast Guard

23
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:13,720
conducted a search for an 82-foot tramp freighter named the Freedon. On route to Haiti, the

24
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:19,960
steamer had been reported missing at sea the week before. Despite the Coast Guard search,

25
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:26,960
the ship had apparently vanished without a trace. On board the Freedon, a derelict cargo

26
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:37,080
ship of Bahamian registry were seven Haitian crew members, a handsome young sea captain,

27
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:42,680
and an attractive 23-year-old American journalism student named Lisa Bishop. On the morning

28
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:47,920
of her departure, Lisa had called her parents to say goodbye. If I could feel something

29
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:54,000
was wrong, mother's intuition, I guess you could call it. Lisa was to call me when she

30
00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:01,000
arrived, and that call never came. Known by her friends for her social conscience,

31
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,880
Lisa wanted to write an article that would dramatize the contrast between the wealth

32
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:12,760
of America and the economic devastation of Haiti. To Lisa, her voyage on the Freedon

33
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:19,200
was a chance of a lifetime, even though it meant leaving her boyfriend of three years.

34
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:25,700
We had a long discussion the night before she left that she had to make her own decision,

35
00:04:25,700 --> 00:04:32,200
that in life that I couldn't follow her and take care of her wherever she went. Somewhere

36
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:39,200
Caribbean Sea between Miami and Haiti, Lisa Bishop and eight other people simply vanished.

37
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,080
Explanations arranged from pirates to smugglers even to an encounter with a so-called Bermuda

38
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:48,480
Triangle. This voyage into the unknown began with a chance encounter with a dashing sea

39
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,480
captain.

40
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:58,480
Atlanta, Georgia. At a nightclub owned by her boyfriend, Paul Cornwell, Lisa met a 28-year-old

41
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:05,560
German national named Florian Meyer-Borsch. Florian was a modern-day Gypsy, a brilliant

42
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:11,200
mechanic who had briefly settled in Miami. Florian had sailed throughout the Caribbean

43
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:17,200
and was a fixture of the European expatriate community. Though Florian was outwardly charismatic

44
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:23,200
and charming, Lisa's parents felt appearances were deceiving.

45
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:30,200
Those were deceiving. When I first saw Florian's photograph, just by looking at him I didn't

46
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:37,200
think that he was the type of person that Lisa would have anything to do with.

47
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:44,200
Florian, from what I've learned about him, is a drifter and he sponges off of people,

48
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:51,200
free-loads.

49
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:58,200
A year after their first meeting, Florian told Lisa of an upcoming voyage from Miami to Haiti.

50
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:04,200
Aware of her journalistic ambitions, he invited her to accompany.

51
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,200
Oh, that sounds wonderful.

52
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:12,200
Lisa Bishop and Paul Cornwell had a stormy three-year relationship. Paul was upset when

53
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:17,200
Lisa told him that she planned to sail to Haiti with Florian.

54
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,200
I didn't trust him with Lisa. Of course I was concerned about Florian, you know, being

55
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:26,200
a young guy, and she tried to tell me there was nothing to worry about, there was nothing

56
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:31,200
romantic. I tried to discourage her as her parents tried to discourage her from going

57
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:35,200
because they were concerned about it.

58
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:41,200
I expressed my feelings about it, that I didn't want her to go or anything, and Lisa was

59
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:47,200
very, very a headstrong girl when she made up her mind to do something.

60
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:52,200
On the morning of December 17, 1988, the weather was cold, the water choppy.

61
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,200
Florian considered delaying the departure.

62
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:59,200
If we don't go now, I'm not going to be able to go at all. I might as well just turn around

63
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:00,200
and go home.

64
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:05,200
Minutes before they left, Lisa spoke to her parents for what would be the last time.

65
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,200
She said, don't worry, daddy. She said everything would be alright, you know.

66
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:14,200
The last words I had, whether it was I was still asking her not to go, you know, and

67
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:19,200
then she talked to her mother. I never talked to her again after that.

68
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:28,200
Finally at 2.30 in the afternoon, tugboats eased the freedom through the Miami Rivers

69
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,200
that headed towards open sea.

70
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,200
There she goes. She's opening up.

71
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:38,200
What Lisa thought would be the adventure of a lifetime was just the beginning.

72
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:44,200
But to those caught in the wake of the Fridon's disappearance, it was the beginning of a nightmare.

73
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:52,200
The Fridon's planned route would take the ship 600 miles past the coast of Cuba to

74
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,200
Gonaib, a small port on the western coast of Haiti.

75
00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:03,200
Despite the fact that there were no storms and no distress calls, the Fridon apparently never arrived.

76
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:08,200
But Lisa didn't call on Christmas Day or family became alarmed.

77
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:16,200
The relatives of the people on board kept calling us, asking us for information.

78
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:21,200
We kept in touch with the port authorities and the various ports in that mid-Caribbean area

79
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,200
and likewise down in Haiti.

80
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:30,200
We said several search and rescue flights by Falcon jet aircraft in the most commonly traveled area

81
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:35,200
of the Old Bahama Channel, which is the area between the United States and Haiti.

82
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,200
Still it was unsuccessful.

83
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:45,200
We even sent a telegram to the Cuban border guards to ask them if they had any information on that vessel.

84
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,200
However, they had no information either.

85
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:55,200
Despite their sweep of the Caribbean, the Coast Guard found no trace of the Fridon.

86
00:08:55,200 --> 00:09:00,200
But Lisa's friends and family refused to give up the search.

87
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:06,200
Mrs. Bishop and I were the only people looking. We felt we were the only people looking.

88
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,200
I mean, there were no governmental agencies that would look at all.

89
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:16,200
We came to Miami hoping to maybe get some answers from some of Florian's friends

90
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:20,200
or just find, you know, anything we could. We're desperate.

91
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:27,200
And we contacted the New Times and they sent a reporter out by the name of David Nicholl.

92
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,200
Miami, April 1989.

93
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:36,200
When an underwater salvager named Bob Nyberg read the New Times article on the Fridon,

94
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:41,200
he realized that he had seen the ship two weeks after it had allegedly disappeared

95
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,200
in a completely different part of the Caribbean.

96
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:50,200
I remembered that while I was working in Grand Cayman in January of that year,

97
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,200
there'd been a boat came in.

98
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:57,200
We were working underwater directly in the harbor area where the ship's pulled up and tied up.

99
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:02,200
When I heard the ship coming in, we came up and as I was coming out of the water,

100
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:07,200
we looked back and noticed the name was Fridon, F-R-E-E-D-O-N.

101
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:11,200
And I made a statement to my friend that those guys need their freedom.

102
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,200
They can't even spell the word.

103
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:19,200
They were there for some time that afternoon, next morning, the boat was gone.

104
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:29,200
Nyberg saw the Fridon in Georgetown Harbor on Grand Cayman Island over 500 miles from Haiti.

105
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,200
Or it went after a sighting is unknown.

106
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:40,200
The fact that the ship was spotted, and I feel like it did not go down,

107
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:47,200
that it brought me hope that Alisa was alive and had to be held against her will

108
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,200
in order for her not to contact us.

109
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:55,200
In May of 1989, Paul Cornwell and Bob Nyberg went to Grand Cayman.

110
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:59,200
There they hoped to find more information on the fate of the Fridon.

111
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:06,200
After canvassing the port, they found a number of witnesses who claimed to have seen Florian

112
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:10,200
around the same time that Nyberg had spotted the Fridon.

113
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,200
Though nobody could remember having seen Lisa, an important clue did surface.

114
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:25,200
Apparently Florian was not alone during his mysterious soldier in on Grand Cayman.

115
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,200
Yeah, he come with another fellow, short fellow with black hair.

116
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,200
Really with another guy.

117
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,200
I couldn't help feeling that he was right around the corner,

118
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:39,200
that I was going to run across him any minute in one of these bars personally.

119
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:45,200
So I was very apprehensive, very agitated, ready for anything.

120
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:50,200
And it just made me look harder.

121
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:59,200
Paul returned to Atlanta and questioned a woman who had been storing Florian's personal belongings.

122
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,200
There he found a picture of the man seen with Florian in Grand Cayman.

123
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,200
The woman gave his name as Philippe.

124
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:17,200
Paul would later find out that Philippe had chartered the Fridon.

125
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:23,200
The girl told me at that time that she had had a personal relationship with this guy, Philippe.

126
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:27,200
And that he mentioned that he was involved in a large-scale smuggling thing,

127
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:32,200
which really got me going, thinking it was a smuggling thing, and that something had gone wrong,

128
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:39,200
and that they had gotten involved in something too deep that Lisa didn't know about and that she couldn't handle.

129
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:46,200
I've heard how they say that gun runners or dope dealers of hijack it, kill everybody on board,

130
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:51,200
and use the ship one time to make a run or something.

131
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:57,200
I've heard about how the weather can change in a heartbeat out there, and a ship can go under,

132
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,200
and they claim that nothing will ever be found.

133
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:05,200
I've heard all the stories and all the rumors.

134
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:16,200
It's just knowing her that you have, that you don't know how she is, where she is, or what, you know.

135
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,200
But you always got hope.

136
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,200
Well, the heartache will never go away.

137
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:32,200
Perhaps someone out in the audience might be able to tell us that we're about to Florian,

138
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:39,200
and that would be the key to finally, or what has happened to Lisa.

139
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:46,200
I feel that if Florian is out there, eventually I'll find out about it, and I'll locate him.

140
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:51,200
Authorities believe that Florian Meyer Borsch is the key to the mystery of the Freedon.

141
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:56,200
He is 30 years old, 6 feet 2, with blond hair and blue eyes.

142
00:13:56,200 --> 00:14:01,200
Known for his mechanical ability, Borsch may be working in a related area.

143
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,200
Today Lisa Bishop would be 25 years old.

144
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:09,200
She's 5 feet 2 inches in height, with blond hair and brown eyes.

145
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:18,200
Rumors persist that the Freedon with a telltale bent mast continues to roam the Caribbean under a different name.

146
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:24,200
These are the only known pictures of how the boat looked before its disappearance.

147
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:39,200
Last November we examined the case of 25 year old Maria Armstrong.

148
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:46,200
In 1984 Maria was diagnosed as suffering from paranoid schizophrenia, a physical disease of the brain.

149
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:56,200
In June of 1988 Maria moved from her home in New Jersey to Mesa, Arizona to live with her childhood sweetheart, 29 year old Robert Ron Argenti.

150
00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:03,200
Argenti was aware of Maria's condition, but felt that he could somehow help her to overcome her illness.

151
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:11,200
We were concerned, because we did hear that she was in a mental institution and we knew she was on drugs back east.

152
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:20,200
So we were kind of concerned about it, but you know they were holding hands, kissing, they were like a couple.

153
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:28,200
For the first few weeks Maria seemed happy at Mesa. She seemed to blossom under Ron's loving attention.

154
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:35,200
But Maria soon began behaving erratically and she turned violet towards Ron.

155
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,200
Maria calm down, listen.

156
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,200
I was alone! I told you about you!

157
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:45,200
I would talk to Ron on the phone and I would tell him send her home.

158
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,200
I don't want to do that, I want to help her he would say.

159
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:56,200
I said but you can help her, it's obvious you can't help her. She needs more than you to help her. She needs psychiatric care.

160
00:15:56,200 --> 00:16:01,200
On November 14th Ron Argenti's body was discovered in his living room.

161
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,200
He had been bludgeoned to death with a sledgehammer when he slept on the couch.

162
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:14,200
Four days later Maria Armstrong was seen hitchhiking 260 miles north of Mesa, Arizona.

163
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:19,200
This was the last reported sighting of Maria Armstrong until our broadcast.

164
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,200
Update, Maria Armstrong has been captured.

165
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:33,200
Shortly after this courier the FBI received a call from one of our viewers with information regarding Armstrong's whereabouts.

166
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:42,200
We received a telephone call from an unidentified caller that Maria Armstrong had been living in the Mesa, Memphis, Tennessee area.

167
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:48,200
And that she was going to be at the airport on August 3rd of this year.

168
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:56,200
The FBI subsequently went to the airport and were able to identify her and they did place her under arrest.

169
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,200
Armstrong had changed her appearance by dyeing her hair blonde.

170
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:08,200
Two weeks later she was returned to Arizona to face a charge of first degree murder.

171
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:17,200
The FBI was able to identify her and then to place her under arrest.

172
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:33,200
Everly Hills, California with an average yearly income of $75,000 per household.

173
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,200
This is one of the nation's wealthiest communities.

174
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:44,200
Its streets, stores and sidewalks are filled with glamorous people living their lives in luxury.

175
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,200
But there is another side to Everly Hills.

176
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:56,200
As with so much of the nation there is a growing population of homeless who pass through and even live on Asafo-Lewan streets.

177
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:05,200
In the winter of 1989 at least one of these homeless individuals found an unlikely benefactor in 24 year old Adam Hecht.

178
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:12,200
The son of an Academy Award winning producer, Adam was born into Everly Hills luxury.

179
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:18,200
He spent his childhood in an insulated world bordered by movie stars, mansions and privilege.

180
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:23,200
After graduating from Everly Hills High Adam earned his living giving tennis lessons.

181
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:29,200
All who knew him remembered a bright, independent and friendly young man.

182
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:39,200
All that began to change in the morning of January the 10th, 1989 when Adam and his brother Harold went to breakfast at a local delicatessen.

183
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:48,200
In front of the restaurant they encountered a street person apparently blind in one eye.

184
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:59,200
A few minutes later Adam left the table and went back outside.

185
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:08,200
Adam said excuse me, you went outside and started talking to this person.

186
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:13,200
And I could see through the lines and I couldn't understand it.

187
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,200
I was quite surprised.

188
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:20,200
I didn't understand what was his reason for being out there.

189
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,200
What was all that about?

190
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:31,200
Adam came back in, started talking, I mentioned it briefly, I said what are you doing out there?

191
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,200
He said nothing really.

192
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,200
So we went on and had our breakfast.

193
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:39,200
When we finished, we left, I went to my car.

194
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:43,200
Listen I've got a 10 o'clock at Mohon but I'll catch up with you later, I'm gonna make a quick call alright?

195
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,200
Alright, alright, bye.

196
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:52,200
And just before I got in my car I looked back and he was talking to this person.

197
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:56,200
I was very surprised and that was the first time he met.

198
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,200
What we know now is Tony.

199
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,200
Harold thinks it's good that you can't see.

200
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,200
Yeah well I feel like I should help you.

201
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:10,200
Within a few weeks of their first meeting Adam invited Tony to move into his apartment.

202
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:16,200
Through his new friend Adam was exposed to a lifestyle that was as far away from his experience as night from day.

203
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:22,200
He seemed to strike a chord in Adam for according to his brother Harold he had become disillusioned with his pampered life.

204
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:29,200
His family fears that what started out as a gesture of a good Samaritan may have escalated into a nightmare.

205
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,200
Today Adam Hecht is missing.

206
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,200
Tony this is where my mom lives.

207
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:41,200
Soon after Tony moved in Adam brought his new roommate to his mother's house for dinner.

208
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:45,200
She was surprised that her son would shelter a street person.

209
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:54,200
I thought my goodness that's strange you know but knowing Adam the way he is I could understand it until I met Tony you know.

210
00:20:54,200 --> 00:21:00,200
I really understood it I thought oh my goodness it's so nice that he wants to help him you know.

211
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:05,200
Oh what a surprise.

212
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,200
What's this?

213
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,200
Mom this is Tony.

214
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,200
Tony this is my mother.

215
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,200
Okay pleased to meet you.

216
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,200
Listen why don't you come in.

217
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:29,200
When I saw Tony and how he talked and my god the smell it was unbelievable and wow it was scary it was really scary.

218
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:40,200
During the meal Tony began to wave his hands over his food as if he were blessing it.

219
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:44,200
Adam what's going on with him?

220
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:54,200
Well this is the way Tony is and it's hard to understand right at first but once you get to know him from the inside out he's really a fantastic guy.

221
00:21:54,200 --> 00:22:15,200
Adam was very much wanting to talk about Tony and to seem to have a good relationship Adam seemed to understand Tony you know and I was led to believe that Tony was really being very kind to Adam as far as you know helping him grow up as a person mature.

222
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,200
That's what he said to me he's helping me mature as a person.

223
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:36,200
Adam at the beginning he was an elite preppy businessman you know drove a great car, taught tennis and then you met Tony and I mean it just all changed and you became a mystical person and I just I didn't know him anymore.

224
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:44,200
Part of me was torn because I felt for what he was trying to do I mean it was a very noble thing.

225
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:55,200
With Tony by his side Adam began to visit Skid Row in downtown Los Angeles and often stayed out on the streets at night.

226
00:22:55,200 --> 00:23:05,200
I know that when Adam sets his mind to something he really goes wholeheartedly into any type of project.

227
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:12,200
Hey Tony I got some food and stuff in back of my car maybe help me pass it out.

228
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,200
Okay cool let's go.

229
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:23,200
His involvement with street people increased when he met Tony I think started to understand their problems.

230
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,200
There's gonna be some food coming up I'll make sure you guys get some food.

231
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:35,200
All these things you have Adam it's not what counts what counts as what society.

232
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:40,200
Tony and Adam would also share in strange mystical rights of Tony's devising.

233
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,200
In one of these rituals Adam burned his hands severely.

234
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:51,200
All I know is when I saw it I said my god Adam what happened to you?

235
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,200
He said oh he said you know he said I was testing a test of endurance.

236
00:23:55,200 --> 00:24:01,200
He said Tony told me we were experimenting to see how would make me stronger.

237
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:08,200
June 10th 1989 Harold had not heard from his brother for several days.

238
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,200
Concerned he went to Adam's apartment.

239
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,200
Adam?

240
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,200
Oh gosh Tony is Adam here?

241
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,200
My brother was not there his car was not there.

242
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,200
Have you seen him?

243
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:21,200
And I tried to get in.

244
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:22,200
Listen let me ask you.

245
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:23,200
I said where's Adam?

246
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:24,200
I said where's he gone?

247
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:30,200
And in his strange strange way he did not answer that question or seem to really know.

248
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,200
He is everybody's really worried will you let me in?

249
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:35,200
Let me in.

250
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:36,200
He's really hot in here.

251
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:42,200
A few days later Adam's mother also went to his apartment.

252
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:47,200
Adam?

253
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:52,200
As I'm walking back down the corridor he's following me and he's just giving a kiss.

254
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,200
But starts to put his arms around me and I was always the most scary thing.

255
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,200
What's wrong are you afraid of me?

256
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,200
I just want to know where my son is.

257
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,200
Where my son is where is he?

258
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,200
I'm your son.

259
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:05,200
That's it.

260
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,200
I'm over here.

261
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:09,200
I'm your son.

262
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:10,200
I'm.

263
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:20,200
On the advice of a private investigator the family contact of the Beverly Hills police

264
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:24,200
filed a missing persons report and began to arrange for Tony's eviction.

265
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:25,200
Right up the stairs.

266
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,200
Why don't you just stay right there for a second.

267
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:31,200
Okay what I need you guys to do is go around the back and watch for the second story.

268
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,200
I'm looking at a big guy.

269
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:34,200
Just make sure he doesn't be around.

270
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,200
Okay partner I'm talking top of the stairs.

271
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:44,200
On July 9th the family accompanied by the investigators stood by as Tony was forcibly evicted from Adam's apartment.

272
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:46,200
Come on out here.

273
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:47,200
Come on out here.

274
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,200
Put your hands up behind your head.

275
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,200
This is my friend's house.

276
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:51,200
Come on you know the routine.

277
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:52,200
Come on.

278
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:53,200
Put your hands down.

279
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,200
I want you to walk down to the bottom of the stairs.

280
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:56,200
You understand?

281
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,200
Yeah.

282
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:58,200
All right.

283
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,200
During the eviction Tony made no effort to avoid police.

284
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:08,200
Local detectives interviewed Tony and came to the conclusion that he had not been involved in Adam's disappearance.

285
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,200
Tony claimed to have no knowledge of his whereabouts.

286
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:22,200
I can't to this day understand why they didn't interrogate him you know because he obviously knows much more than what was letting on.

287
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:29,200
I would love to have some silly and penithal or whatever they do and just try and get a truth theorem and have him talk.

288
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,200
Because I couldn't get two sentences out of this man.

289
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,200
He was just so strange you know.

290
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:43,200
One month after Adam's disappearance his car was found abandoned on a Beverly Hills side street.

291
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,200
On the windshield were several parking tickets.

292
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:59,200
Inside the keys were still in the ignition and police found Adam's wallet, credit cards and $600 in cash and checks.

293
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,200
No other trace of Adam was found.

294
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,200
We wish we knew specifically what happened to Adam.

295
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:12,200
Heck, apparently he in the past occasionally had gone away for a few days at a time but always had returned.

296
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:17,200
And whether he did this time and just decided not to return we don't know.

297
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:25,200
He had a very solid business, very active with a number of different people on a number of different levels.

298
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:31,200
For him just to disappear does not fit his character.

299
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:38,200
While there are some suspicious circumstances as far as finding the car and finding his property in the car normally you'd take with that with you if you were going to leave.

300
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:47,200
We have no real evidence of any foul play or any criminal involvement so we're not handling it as a crime strictly as a missing person case.

301
00:27:51,200 --> 00:28:00,200
As Tony no more about Adam's disappearance than he is telling did someone from Adam's brief time on the street decide to violently reappear?

302
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:07,200
Or did Adam reject his former life of luxury and just lose himself among the homeless?

303
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:16,200
We all want him back. He wants so much for our family to understand his thoughts.

304
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:33,200
And what I would like him to know is that it's very hard for someone like my mother to listen to what he has to say and take it in because everyone has limits to their understanding.

305
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:40,200
And his was so vast his spiritual knowledge that it was difficult for us to take it in.

306
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:45,200
What can I say I just love him and I just want him to come home.

307
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:51,200
I miss him with all my heart. It's not a complete family without him.

308
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:59,200
And I would try and understand whatever he was thinking and I would not be mad at him in any way.

309
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:08,200
I just want him to just come home because he's truly loved by all of us and many other people too.

310
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:19,200
Adam Arthur Hectis 5 feet 11 inches in height and weighs 160 pounds. His eyes are hazel and his hair is black.

311
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:23,200
Today he would be 25 years old and may be wearing a beard.

312
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:28,200
Adam also may still have the burn scar on his right hand.

313
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:37,200
Next, the story of stolen Nazi treasure allegedly buried in Austria near the end of World War II.

314
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,200
Today it could be worth over 50 million dollars.

315
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:55,200
April 1945, the final days of the Nazi Empire.

316
00:29:55,200 --> 00:30:04,200
Despite desperate measures taken by the defenders, combined Allied forces closed in on the last pockets of German resistance.

317
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,200
The end of the war in Europe was near.

318
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:20,200
As the Allies advanced into Germany, they discovered treasures plundered from the Nazis' former conquest, carefully hidden away in caves and vaults.

319
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:31,200
In the months following the Germans' surrender, billions of dollars in riches were uncovered, including these gold bars found in an abandoned salt mine by U.S. soldiers.

320
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:38,200
While a bulk of these stolen treasures was recovered, billions of dollars still remain unaccounted for.

321
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:44,200
There was of course more shocking evidence of Nazi barbarism.

322
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:51,200
Huchenwald, Matherhausen, Dachau, names that would come to symbolize man's inhumanity demand.

323
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:58,200
And through the gates of Dachau, one multi-million dollar Nazi treasure allegedly passed.

324
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:06,200
Tonight we will investigate the story of this treasure, as told to us by Dr. Edward Gregor.

325
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:12,200
He is convinced it was buried on the shores of a small Austrian lake in the spring of 1945, where it remains today.

326
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:21,200
They have uncovered dramatic evidence that supports Dr. Gregor's story, a story first told by an Austrian physician named Wilhelm Gross.

327
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,200
After the war, Dr. Gross had treated imprisoned Nazi war criminals.

328
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:32,200
An SS officer who had been condemned to death told Gross of the location of the buried treasure.

329
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:40,200
In 1952, Dr. Gross shared the story with Edward Gregor, who was then a U.S. Army officer stationed in Austria.

330
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:49,200
It started at the concentration camp of Dachau, gold and treasure that was accumulated from the prisoners that had brought in there,

331
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,200
who were executed and cremated.

332
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:59,200
The concentration camp of Dachau has been preserved as a memorial. This recreation was filmed there.

333
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:10,200
According to Dr. Gross, the commandant of Dachau and three of his assistants loaded the treasure into four boxes,

334
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:14,200
which were probably ammunition boxes according to the size.

335
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:24,200
These boxes were filled with jewelry, rare stamps and gold bars, some of it processed from the gold fillings of concentration camp victims.

336
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:28,200
Today, their contents will be worth at least $50 million.

337
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:40,200
Dr. Gross' informant claimed to be one of four SS officers who conspired to smuggle his treasure out of Dachau.

338
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:52,200
Their route allegedly took them from the outskirts of Munich into Austria through the Arlberg Pass toward the small town of Brat.

339
00:32:52,200 --> 00:33:00,200
Near Brat was a pristine mountain lake called the Lunersee. This lake, located on the Swiss border, was their ultimate destination.

340
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:09,200
Allied armies had not yet reached this isolated region and the men believed their loot would be safe there.

341
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:14,200
After burying the treasure, the men planned to escape across the Swiss border.

342
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,200
After several days, the men finally arrived at the Lunersee.

343
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,200
The only structure in the area was a small hut.

344
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:36,200
Dr. Gross stated that the officers buried the treasure exactly halfway between this hut and a brook across the lake.

345
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:44,200
They then said their farewells and went their separate ways, planning one day to return.

346
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:53,200
Three of them left and headed into Switzerland. The fourth person went back down into the valley to return to his family.

347
00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:02,200
According to Dr. Gross, this fourth officer was captured and while awaiting execution revealed his secret,

348
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:06,200
the officers were not sure if they had been able to escape.

349
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:11,200
While waiting execution revealed his secret, the officers three companions were never seen again.

350
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:19,200
Gregor believed Dr. Gross' story and agreed to help search for the treasure.

351
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:24,200
But before they could mount an expedition, Dr. Gross mysteriously disappeared.

352
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:33,200
In 1956, a dam was constructed on the Lunersee and submerged the treasure's alleged location under 75 feet of water.

353
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:43,200
34 years passed. In the summer of 1990, enough water had been let out of the dam to return the lake to its original depth.

354
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:48,200
This coupled with a severe drought had brought the water level to an all-time low.

355
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,200
Get your pick out of the way there and I'll go in there and look at it.

356
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,200
It's not getting any stronger as we're going down deeper.

357
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:04,200
Armed with information culled from Dr. Gross' personal papers, Edward Gregor finally went to the Lunersee.

358
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,200
It's already off the meter though, so it's as strong as it can be.

359
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:09,200
I think it's something in the rocks.

360
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:16,200
Gregor and an associate pinpointed the treasure's location by using coordinates from a map given him by Dr. Gross.

361
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:22,200
But despite a thorough search, he was unable to find the treasure.

362
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,200
Where is the Lunersee treasure?

363
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,200
Had the other three Nazi officers dug it up?

364
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,200
Edward Gregor feels this is unlikely.

365
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:42,200
By the time it would have been safe to return, the treasure would have been submerged.

366
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:47,200
Or could Dr. Gross' story be just that, a story?

367
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:54,200
Documents brought to light at a 1946 war crimes trial indicate that such a treasure did exist.

368
00:35:55,200 --> 00:36:09,200
I had discovered some evidence in the archives, specifically an interrogation statement from a gentleman by the name of Joseph Gerlin.

369
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:17,200
Joseph Gerlin was tried, convicted and executed for atrocities committed while he was a subcommandate of D'Hau.

370
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:27,200
According to his testimony and statements from four other sources, the head commandant of D'Hau had been involved in a conspiracy to smuggle a treasure from inside the camp.

371
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,200
This officer's name was Frederick Viter.

372
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:42,200
One witness said that he saw Viter have a truck loaded, being loaded with valuables out of the cash storage areas.

373
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:52,200
According to some other testimony, Viter was seen leaving the camp in those vehicles.

374
00:36:55,200 --> 00:37:02,200
Later on, he was also seen by other SS personnel heading towards the Swiss border.

375
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:19,200
Also, Gerlin testified that other camp personnel had assisted in burying this treasure and that approximately five million in gold rice marks was taken in valuables.

376
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:26,200
Joseph Gerlin went to his grave, never revealing any more about the treasure.

377
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:36,200
Edward Gregor believes that Gerlin was one of the four men who buried the Lunar Zay treasure and perhaps he was Dr. Gross's mysterious informant.

378
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:48,200
Today, if it exists, this multi-million dollar treasure is underwater, but Edward Gregor will return again when the water level has lowered.

379
00:37:49,200 --> 00:38:00,200
He believes that if found, the proceeds of the Lunar Zay treasure should be used to provide medical care for needy individuals, a fitting use for wealth stolen under such grim circumstances.

380
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:12,200
Next, the story of a bold prison break and two unlikely lovers, an escaped convict and his female guard.

381
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:22,200
The story of a bold prison break and two unlikely lovers, an escaped convict and his female guard.

382
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:33,200
I like for her to come home and tell me why she did it and to turn herself in because I don't want her to get hurt.

383
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:41,200
I do love her. I'm just confused right now.

384
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:53,200
You have just heard the plea of Leslie Beeman, a daughter in anguish over the disappearance of her mother Kay. Is Kay Beeman a victim or a criminal?

385
00:38:53,200 --> 00:39:00,200
Leslie holds out hope that Kay is innocent, but no matter what, she wants her mother to come home.

386
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:15,200
Kay Beeman was divorced when her son and daughter were nearly grown. For ten years, she had worked as a matron and corrections officer at the Allegheny County Detention Center for Men and Women in Cumberland, Maryland.

387
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:28,200
August 29, 1990, just seven weeks ago, Kay Beeman was on duty in the prison control center with another female officer, Michelle Puderbaugh.

388
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:32,200
Michelle, I'll take this round. Are you sure? Yeah.

389
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:45,200
At 2.12 a.m., Kay left the control center to conduct a routine check of the cell block. All inmates are behind bars except one low-security prisoner who was working in an adjacent room.

390
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:56,200
Everything seemed normal, but within minutes, the calm of an uneventful night shift would be dramatically turned upside down.

391
00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:04,200
Come on, ladies, come on with us. What are you doing here? I said come on! Do you know how serious this is? You know how serious I am? I ain't got time to listen to this.

392
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:10,200
Barnes is coming down with Beeman, he's got a weapon. The escaped inmate is Edgar Kearns, a maximum security prisoner.

393
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:20,200
You don't want to try anything and somebody's getting hurt? I didn't know what they were going to do. When I saw the bathroom door was standing in the jar, so I just darted out and ran.

394
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:35,200
At first I felt a relief that I was, at least for the moment, safe. But then I was thinking, but my God, you know, what are you going to do here? And they have Kay. What are they going to do to her?

395
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:41,200
It appeared that Kay Beeman had been taken hostage by James Barnes, Edgar Kearns' cellmate.

396
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:49,200
I heard the buttons click and the controls and so I thought, well, they're going.

397
00:40:56,200 --> 00:41:00,200
Two days later, Kay Beeman telephoned her daughter Leslie.

398
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:13,200
It was about a quarter after five in the morning and she called Collette and she told me she was all right and that she loved me and she missed me and not to worry about her. She was all right.

399
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:18,200
And she said, she told me she was, I went with them.

400
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,200
We're out of here.

401
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:37,200
Three days after the breakout, James Barnes was apprehended. He told authorities that Kay Beeman's car was used in the getaway. He also claimed that Kay Beeman had helped plan the escape because she was in love with Edgar Kearns.

402
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:49,200
Edgar Kearns had been convicted of theft and forgery in West Virginia. He was awaiting sentencing in Maryland for passing bad checks.

403
00:41:50,200 --> 00:42:01,200
James Barnes said that Kay Beeman and Edgar Kearns had been romantically involved for three months. At the prison, the two had long, soulful conversations.

404
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:04,200
I haven't been playing, have I?

405
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:15,200
Mr. Barnes told us that she would spend sometimes half an hour or 40 minutes in the maximum security area just talking to Kearns. So there definitely was a relationship there.

406
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:17,200
Sleeping, as usual.

407
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:29,200
I guess you maybe fall in love with somebody and you do some strange things. But Kay's pretty well lost about everything that she ever had over this one incident.

408
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:46,200
Once there was almost a certainty in my mind of what had happened, I just, I felt so betrayed. I felt, I just couldn't believe she could do that.

409
00:42:47,200 --> 00:43:08,200
I want to know why she did it and I'd like to have her home so she can explain it to me. She hurt me and I don't know how to feel about it or about her. It just hurts a lot.

410
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:24,200
Sandra Kay Beeman is 46 years old and 5 feet 3 inches tall. She weighs 170 pounds. She has experience as a beautician and may have changed her hairstyle and color.

411
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:42,200
Edgar Eugene Kearns is 30 years old and 5 feet 9 inches tall. He weighs 200 pounds. His hair color and style may have been altered by Kay. On his right forearm, he has a tattoo of a panther and heart tattoos on both biceps.

412
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:51,200
Up to just 6 hours after our broadcast, Sandra Kay Beeman and Edgar Kearns were captured in Canada.

413
00:43:54,200 --> 00:44:06,200
On September 10th, 12 days after the escape, Beeman and Kearns checked into the Beach Motor Motel in Hamilton, Canada. They registered as husband and wife under the assumed names Fred and Sandy Smith.

414
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:23,200
I was watching TV and all of a sudden this lady's picture come on. So I called my wife and she was out in the kitchen ironing and I said, do you recognize this lady? And she said yes, she's the lady that's living in room 12.

415
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:35,200
And by this time, the gentleman come on and I said, uh oh, he also lives in there. So I reached over immediately and picked up the phone and called the police.

416
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:48,200
When we got to the Beach Motor Hotel, the information from the Mitchells was the effect that they hadn't left the room and it wasn't their policy to leave the room during the evening. We were convinced they were still inside the room.

417
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:57,200
The officers at the emergency response unit, which is equivalent to a SWAT team, forced the door open. The room was found to be vacated.

418
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:05,200
A witness later told authorities that he had seen the fugitive couple getting into a taxi cab earlier that evening.

419
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:12,200
We were able to determine the name of the cab and a check with the cab company revealed the driver.

420
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:22,200
I picked them up at the beach trip and that just up from the motel and I asked them where they were going and they said the Red Rose Motel.

421
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:38,200
When we got to the motel, the cab driver said he had taken one of our officers was able to determine from the office register at that location that they had in fact booked in and that current's in fact that uses his right name.

422
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:43,200
A few minutes later, the emergency response unit moved in.

423
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:56,200
Three or four officers of the emergency response unit approached the front door of the motel room. It was at that point that someone from the inside of the room looked out through the drapes.

424
00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:00,200
The officers then forced open the door, entered the room.

425
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:05,200
Kerns, he was forced to the floor of the motel room and held in a position of safety.

426
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:12,200
The female in the room was in the bed and her hands were handcuffed above her head to the headboard.

427
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:15,200
At that point there, both persons were arrested.

428
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:20,200
Kerns was removed by my partner and myself and transported to Central Station.

429
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:23,200
He wanted to know how we had learned of his whereabouts.

430
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:27,200
We asked him if he had ever seen the program before.

431
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:29,200
He said yes he had.

432
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,200
We told him that he was on it tonight and he was astounded.

433
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:57,200
Join us next week for another edition of Unsolved Mysteries.
