1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,680
This program is about unsolved mysteries.

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,280
Whenever possible, the actual family members and police

3
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:09,280
officials have participated in recreating the events.

4
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,120
What you are about to see is not a news broadcast.

5
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:18,960
In New Hampshire, freak accidents take the lives

6
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,120
of a mother and her son 25 years apart.

7
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,560
Some believe that Rena and Donnie Paquette

8
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,400
were in reality murdered by a woman who was killed

9
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,040
by a woman who was killed by a woman.

10
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,040
Rena and Donnie Paquette were in reality murdered

11
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,600
because he had seen the face of the same killer.

12
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,520
In Aurora, Illinois, Lavelta Richmond

13
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,680
was injured in a car crash on a lonely country road.

14
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,880
Simultaneously, her identical twin sister, LaVona,

15
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,120
claims that she saw the accident from her living room 20

16
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:49,520
miles away.

17
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:54,960
Could this be a case of ESP between identical twins?

18
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,120
In this edition of the FBI's 10 Most Wanted List,

19
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:03,360
perhaps you can help track down a serial child molester.

20
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,120
Also, we have a heartwarming update

21
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,840
from our story of a Tennessee adoption home which abducted

22
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,960
children and sold them to wealthy clients.

23
00:01:10,960 --> 00:01:13,000
After our broadcast, one of those orphans

24
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,640
was reunited with her two brothers

25
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,200
after a 30-year separation.

26
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,320
You can share in their joyous reunion tonight

27
00:01:20,320 --> 00:01:21,600
on Unsolved Mysteries.

28
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,120
The End.

29
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,480
30 years ago, Hooks at New Hampshire

30
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,840
was home to 2,500 people, many of them farmers.

31
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,520
The surrounding woods concealed an abundant population

32
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,120
of deer that attracted hunters all over New England.

33
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,360
But by the winter of 1964, a hunter of a different kind

34
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,440
had arrived in the area.

35
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,760
Two teenage girls had been found murdered

36
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,680
after having first been tortured.

37
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,960
The second victim was a 15-year-old high school

38
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,520
sophomore named Pamela Mason.

39
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,720
It was thought that her killer lived in the area

40
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,800
and neighbor regarded neighbor with suspicion.

41
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,280
One area resident had good reason to be frightened.

42
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,640
47-year-old Rena Pequett told her friends and family

43
00:03:05,640 --> 00:03:09,640
that she believed she knew who had killed the two teenage girls.

44
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:11,600
At the time, nobody took her seriously.

45
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,720
February 3, 1964, Rena's son, 13-year-old Danny Pequett,

46
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,480
had the day off from school.

47
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:22,480
Mom?

48
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,960
Danny and Rena were alone at the family farm.

49
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,840
But when the boy came down for breakfast, his mother was gone.

50
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,560
Uncle Charlie, this is Danny speaking.

51
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,640
Yeah, I can't find my mom.

52
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,080
Well, she said she was going to take me to Dennis today.

53
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,560
When Danny got up that morning, he couldn't find my mom.

54
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:41,960
All right, all right.

55
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,000
Bye.

56
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,000
Dan couldn't understand where she was because her purse

57
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,600
and her winter coat were there.

58
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,360
And it was extremely bitterly cold.

59
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,200
And it was highly unlikely that she went anywhere

60
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,440
without her coat or her purse.

61
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,040
She's not in there, Uncle Charlie.

62
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,480
Let's try the big find for her.

63
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,880
Danny's uncle immediately came over to help look for Rena.

64
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,640
Though the two searched for over an hour,

65
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,120
Rena was nowhere to be found.

66
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:10,000
Mom?

67
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,000
Rena?

68
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,000
Mom?

69
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,000
Rena?

70
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,000
Mom?

71
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,000
Rena?

72
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,000
Rena?

73
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,000
Rena?

74
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,000
Smoke.

75
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,000
Smoke.

76
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:19,880
Mom?

77
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:20,800
No, it's Mom.

78
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,800
Danny, no, Mom.

79
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:23,800
No, Mom.

80
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:24,800
No, Mom.

81
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:25,800
No, Mom.

82
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:26,800
No, Mom.

83
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,640
Rena's paquette was dead.

84
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,960
Her charred body was found in the paquette barn

85
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,320
one mile from the family home.

86
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,000
Police concluded that she had somehow set herself on fire

87
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,680
and then crawled into the barn to die.

88
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,080
However, no flammable substances or containers

89
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,040
were found near the area.

90
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,920
Though her death was ruled a suicide,

91
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,520
her other son, Victor, believes that she was murdered.

92
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,200
I don't really believe my mother committed suicide

93
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,080
because of the tremendous amount of fear and panic

94
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:04,800
in the community, because of the too earlier brutal murders

95
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:10,840
that I think it was just kind of like kept

96
00:05:10,840 --> 00:05:16,000
on a very low profile, not to create more public hysteria.

97
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,880
I feel at the time of my mother's death,

98
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:23,800
the person that was found to be the person responsible for killing

99
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,600
the young Pamela Mason girl was the same person that

100
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,840
was responsible for my mother's death.

101
00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:33,040
In February of 1964, a local delivery man

102
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,560
was arrested, convicted, and sentenced to life in prison

103
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,960
for the murder of Pamela Mason.

104
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,800
At long last, the nightmare seemed over.

105
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,280
But 20 years later, Rena's son Danny was also found dead,

106
00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:46,440
gunned down in front of his house.

107
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,280
There are those who believe that Danny and his mother

108
00:05:48,280 --> 00:05:50,640
both died for the same reason.

109
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:51,680
They knew too much.

110
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,600
The Rena paquette left behind five children.

111
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,320
Her son Danny seemed the most affected by her death.

112
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:06,040
His brother Victor became his closest friend.

113
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:10,520
Mom being killed was very traumatic for Danny.

114
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,320
I think everybody's mom is a little security blanket.

115
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,680
And from there, you lose that.

116
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:22,120
Emotionally, it leads to a lot of problems.

117
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:23,960
Danny grew from a troubled adolescent

118
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,640
into a troubled adult.

119
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:30,200
He married, became a father, but then divorced in 1981.

120
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:35,360
In a bitter legal battle, Danny lost custody of his children.

121
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,400
I believe that Danny loved his children more than anything.

122
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,160
I'm sure that Danny was extremely upset,

123
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:48,320
angered at the thought of losing his children.

124
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,520
It would, of course, mean to him another loss.

125
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,120
In the summer of 1983, frustrated by not being

126
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,120
allowed to see his children, Danny

127
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,200
went to his former wife's home.

128
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,160
Steve!

129
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:05,560
What are you doing here?

130
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:06,480
What are you doing here?

131
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:07,680
Steve, I want to see the kids.

132
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:08,720
I haven't seen them in a month.

133
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:09,620
Now open the door.

134
00:07:09,620 --> 00:07:10,520
You're not going to see the kids.

135
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,160
You're not even supposed to be around here.

136
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,880
Dee, I'm telling you, if I have to come through this play

137
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,440
glass door, I want to see my kid.

138
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:16,440
I want to call the cops.

139
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:17,440
Call the cops!

140
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,000
After this frightening outburst,

141
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,320
Danny's former wife called police.

142
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:22,600
They took him to the custody.

143
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:33,560
I'm going to take you back to February the 3rd, 1964.

144
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,320
Danny was ordered to undergo psychiatric examination

145
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,640
at Concord State Medical Hospital.

146
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,440
It was during this time that the tragedy from his past

147
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,680
began to catch up with his present.

148
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,360
Under hypnosis, Danny began to recall details of the morning

149
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:48,880
that his mother was killed.

150
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:49,680
I remember, right?

151
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:57,960
I woke up because I heard, uh, I heard voices.

152
00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:58,860
Why?

153
00:07:58,860 --> 00:07:59,760
Why?

154
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:00,560
Why?

155
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:01,800
Why?

156
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,040
It's my mom's voice.

157
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,720
And, uh, you know what you're doing to me by doing this?

158
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,120
You know what you're doing?

159
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,600
There's a man's voice.

160
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,600
You know what you're doing to me by doing this?

161
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:13,600
Stop, stop.

162
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,080
You're acting like you're acting like you're making me

163
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,080
make me make you stop.

164
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,080
I'm not going to do this.

165
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:19,580
It's folks want want.

166
00:08:19,580 --> 00:08:21,080
What do I get to my kids?

167
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,080
He was a delivery man.

168
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,640
I knew Danny was yelling at my mother.

169
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,400
And I remember I went back to my room.

170
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:29,360
I was scared.

171
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,560
I mean, I didn't, I didn't.

172
00:08:32,560 --> 00:08:35,960
Danny became convinced that he had seen his mother's murder.

173
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,400
He told friends that he was certain that the killer was

174
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,200
the same delivery man imprisoned

175
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,640
for the murder of Pamela Mason.

176
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,640
However, there has never been any evidence

177
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:45,960
to support this belief.

178
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,600
How's things going here anyway?

179
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,700
During this troubled time, Danny's brother

180
00:08:54,700 --> 00:08:56,200
would visit every day.

181
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,320
And when Danny was released after five months,

182
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,640
he found that Victor had paid all of his bills.

183
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,920
Our damnant's, uh, mailed out.

184
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:08,800
After Danny went home, he tried to pick up

185
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,320
the pieces of his life.

186
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,000
He and Victor would spend many afternoons together,

187
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,320
motorcycling through the countryside.

188
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,760
We spent time together, and we started to enjoy life.

189
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,880
It was a real turning point for him.

190
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,840
Saturday morning, November 9th, 1985,

191
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,600
Danny was repairing a bulldozer while two of his friends

192
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,160
worked on a car in the garage.

193
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,840
At 11 AM, Danny's friends heard a loud pop.

194
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,320
I ran up towards where Danny was working.

195
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,240
It appeared to me that he'd been electrocuted.

196
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,040
We noticed an air escaping from a hole

197
00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,720
in the middle of his chest.

198
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,600
And I thought that it was a welding probe that he

199
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,520
fell on when he hit the ground.

200
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,640
The time I didn't know it was a bullet wound.

201
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,720
Staying in them, let's look around.

202
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:09,520
Something wrong here.

203
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,240
Danny pecketed and shot through the heart

204
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:12,600
with a single bullet.

205
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:13,640
He died instantly.

206
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,240
After police arrived, they discovered footprints

207
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,680
behind Danny's house where the bullet may have come from.

208
00:10:24,680 --> 00:10:26,960
The distance between the individual footprints

209
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,520
raised the possibility that someone had been running

210
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,640
from the scene.

211
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:36,360
A search of the area revealed about 50 to 80 yards away

212
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,160
footprints heading toward the woods,

213
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,840
whether it was incidental or, in fact, someone's

214
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,440
footprint that was fleeing the scene

215
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,480
is speculative at this time.

216
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,800
Telephone service had been interrupted at about the time

217
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,080
Danny was shot.

218
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,640
Their linemen had discovered a projectile in the telephone

219
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:56,560
cable.

220
00:10:56,560 --> 00:10:58,720
We did recover a bullet from it that

221
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,640
was in line with Danny's position.

222
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,160
Investigators determined that the bullet in the telephone line

223
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:08,800
was the same one that had killed Danny.

224
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,400
The day of Danny's death was also

225
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:14,960
the beginning of hunting season.

226
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:19,440
And police began to theorize that he had been shot accidentally.

227
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,240
In order to test this theory, they

228
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,360
tried to pinpoint the location of the gunman.

229
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:30,040
We were able to ascertain that there were hunters in a gravel

230
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,000
pit approximately a mile away that was citing their weapons

231
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:33,840
in at the time.

232
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,280
If Danny was shot accidentally, the fatal bullet

233
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,720
may have come from this gravel pit.

234
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,360
For this to happen, the bullet had to travel nearly a mile,

235
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,440
climb 1,000 feet, pass through Danny,

236
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,160
and lodge in the telephone wire.

237
00:11:53,520 --> 00:12:01,360
In the summer of 1990, ballistics expert RJ

238
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,640
Breglia was brought in from New York City

239
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:08,680
in order to determine if such a shot could have occurred.

240
00:12:08,680 --> 00:12:11,320
After examining the locations, Breglio concluded

241
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,960
that such a shot would have been impossible.

242
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,560
I would rule out the possibility that there

243
00:12:17,560 --> 00:12:21,280
was an accident, that the gun was fired from a mile or more

244
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:22,200
away.

245
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:28,840
Rather, it was a shot fired in the vicinity deliberately.

246
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,880
You would have to traverse through woods.

247
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,000
You would have to travel around vehicles,

248
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,480
get through a 24-inch opening on a bulldozer,

249
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,560
and hit somebody directly through the heart

250
00:12:41,560 --> 00:12:44,920
before being projected upwards into the telephone cable.

251
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:50,680
I think that's very hard to believe that that could happen.

252
00:12:50,680 --> 00:12:53,560
I'm not any expert, but I just don't buy that.

253
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,040
If anybody thinks that I'm going to lay down or go away

254
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,760
on this one, oh, they're wrong.

255
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:06,760
We as a family are, I think, pretty well determined

256
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,000
that the system is going to have to work.

257
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:14,760
The system is going to have to get out there and do its job.

258
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:23,840
Was Danny Paquette the victim of a freak hunting accident?

259
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,360
Or was he deliberately murdered?

260
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,080
Danny, if you knew anything about me,

261
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,320
did someone want him silenced about what he claimed

262
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,160
to have witnessed the morning of his mother's death?

263
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,040
You've been telling everybody in town

264
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,200
that I did something that I did not do.

265
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:39,920
I got Danny upstairs.

266
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:41,640
I don't care about Danny.

267
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:42,560
Let's go outside.

268
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,920
Or did someone just want Danny dead?

269
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:46,520
No one knows.

270
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:21,760
In 1949, the Tennessee Children's Home Society in Memphis

271
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:23,760
was considered a model orphanage.

272
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,160
Director Georgia Tan was credited with placing 5,000

273
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,760
orphans with new families and one national praise

274
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,200
for her efforts.

275
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,360
But Georgia Tan's orphanage had a darker side.

276
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,280
When I was growing up, I was told

277
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,640
that I was adopted from Memphis, Tennessee.

278
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,600
After my adopted mother passed away,

279
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,760
I found correspondence from the Tennessee Children's Home.

280
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,760
And that's when I started my search.

281
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,920
Two and a half years later, I found my name.

282
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,880
Two hours later, I found my mother.

283
00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,880
Come on, run over here.

284
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:00,880
Run over here.

285
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,480
Cindy LaPresto discovered that her mother had never

286
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,440
placed her for adoption.

287
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,760
I was playing on the playground.

288
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:15,320
And Georgia Tan drove up in her proverbial black limousine.

289
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:16,240
OK, George.

290
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,360
Let's go home now.

291
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:23,200
Georgia Tan had simply abducted Cindy.

292
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,880
Good morning, children.

293
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,120
You're going to be on the lawn.

294
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:28,840
A few days later, Judge Camille Kelly

295
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,080
ordered the custody of Cindy be given to the Tennessee

296
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,000
Children's Home Society.

297
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,160
Miss Tan?

298
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,160
Thank you, Judge Kelly.

299
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,480
Thank you, Judge Kelly.

300
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:45,280
I'm confident that Camille Kelly was

301
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,560
involved with Georgia Tan in this operation.

302
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,600
Georgia Tan could not have carried it on without her.

303
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,880
And Camille Kelly could not have lived in the style

304
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:57,320
she lived unless she had outside income.

305
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,720
In 1950, Robert Taylor investigated Georgia Tan

306
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,360
in the Tennessee Children's Home Society.

307
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,040
He discovered that Tan was using the orphanage as a cover

308
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,920
for a black market baby ring, and that she was making

309
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,320
a fortune in the process.

310
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,120
On September 12, 1950, Robert Taylor

311
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,240
presented his report to the governor of Tennessee.

312
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,480
Three days later, Georgia Tan died of cancer.

313
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,880
Two months later, Judge Camille Kelly resigned.

314
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:30,560
The Tennessee Children's Home Society was shut down.

315
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,120
I get very angry when I think of Georgia Tan and Camille Kelly,

316
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,280
because of what they've done to me

317
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,720
and thousands of other people.

318
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,680
It makes me very angry, because my mother

319
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,360
missed my growing up.

320
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,560
And those years can never be replaced.

321
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,400
We've been robbed.

322
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,000
Tonight, we are pleased to announce

323
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,200
that because of our broadcast, another orphan

324
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,200
from the Tennessee Children's Home Society

325
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:55,840
has been reunited with her family.

326
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,640
Lin Hines was five years old when

327
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,800
she was adopted by a wealthy California couple.

328
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,680
I was adopted into a very, very fine family,

329
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,520
but there wasn't a lot of love in the family.

330
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:17,240
And even though you try to make the adopted child part

331
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,800
of the family, you're always still just a little bit different.

332
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,360
And so it meant a great deal to me

333
00:17:22,360 --> 00:17:25,840
to find that I really had a true family.

334
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:27,680
Lin was born Martha Jean Goukin,

335
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,520
was placed in Georgia Tan's orphanage in 1949.

336
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:35,000
She never saw or heard from her natural family again.

337
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,240
Then just three weeks after our broadcast,

338
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,360
Lin learned that her father and two brothers, Paul and Randall,

339
00:17:40,360 --> 00:17:42,840
were still living in Tennessee.

340
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,360
One of the things that I had been fearful of

341
00:17:44,360 --> 00:17:48,120
is that the family did not want me to find them.

342
00:17:48,120 --> 00:17:50,120
When I did finally get hold of Randall, Randall said,

343
00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:52,280
if you don't come here, we're coming there.

344
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,440
Like, tomorrow, you know, it wasn't soon enough.

345
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:02,240
The next day, Lin flew from her home in Dendrick, Colorado

346
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:06,080
and saw her brothers for the first time in more than 40 years.

347
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,080
I'm so sorry.

348
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,080
I just want to wait here.

349
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:13,600
Get me that one to find you guys.

350
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,000
She walked all the plane.

351
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,480
I knew she was just like that.

352
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,680
She's spitting image of her mother.

353
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,880
A very spitting image.

354
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,880
You have a void.

355
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:28,080
That, uh, they've never been filled.

356
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,080
Who was it?

357
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,520
That afternoon, Randall and Paul took Lin to meet

358
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,520
their 86-year-old father, Rufus Gukin.

359
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,680
I had pictures of myself when I was adopted,

360
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,680
that the adopted parents had taken.

361
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:47,680
And they had pictures of Randall and I and mother

362
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,680
and they had pictures of me and my mother.

363
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,680
I had pictures of Randall and I and mother

364
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,680
before I had been adopted.

365
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,680
So we naturally had to compare all our pictures

366
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,680
and all that type of thing.

367
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,680
And I guess we decided that we really were brothers and sisters.

368
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,680
It was very exciting, very thrilling.

369
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:12,680
As we grew older, while we just always had a...

370
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:17,680
the thought there, the love there, but she wasn't there.

371
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,680
You want me to take it with me when I leave?

372
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,680
You know, just like yesterday, you know,

373
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:29,680
somebody to love, be loved by, that you never had before.

374
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,680
I would have to say that this is like Christmas, New Year's,

375
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,680
everything rolled up into one.

376
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:42,680
When I found the family, I felt like I was queen for a day

377
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:44,680
and all my needs.

378
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:56,680
There are over 15 million sets of identical twins

379
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,680
living in the world today.

380
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,680
Throughout history, they are fascinated and delighted us all.

381
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:09,680
Their mirror images are a perfect example of nature's whimsy.

382
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,680
The physical similarities of identical twins

383
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,680
can easily be explained by genetics,

384
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,680
but in the three stories you're about to see,

385
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,680
these eerie likenesses go beyond the realm of science

386
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,680
and defy explanation.

387
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,680
Mark Newman and Jerry Levy are identical twin brothers

388
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,680
who were separated at birth.

389
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,680
For 32 years, neither one knew the other existed.

390
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,680
When they met for the first time three years ago,

391
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,680
they were amazed to discover that their uncanny resemblance

392
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,680
was more than skin deep.

393
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,680
Too much.

394
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,680
The first time we met and we went into the bathroom

395
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:55,680
and looked in the mirror, to me it was a little spooky.

396
00:20:55,680 --> 00:21:00,680
Now I was seeing four of my faces

397
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,680
instead of just one when I normally looked in the mirror.

398
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:05,680
I graduated in 1972.

399
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,680
Incredibly, Mark and Jerry separate lives

400
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,680
on a different planet.

401
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:13,680
Incredibly, Mark and Jerry separate lives

402
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,680
and personal habits were nearly identical.

403
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,680
Both are volunteer firemen and have worked in the lawn care industry.

404
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,680
Both are confirmed bachelors.

405
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,680
They always drink the same brand of beer

406
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,680
and they even carry their keys in the same distinctive manner.

407
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,680
We were instantly comfortable with each other.

408
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,680
The only way I could explain it was it was almost like

409
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,680
a brother who moved away for 32 years

410
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:42,680
and then came back and what he'd been doing for the last 32 years.

411
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,680
And as it turned out, we were doing the same exact things.

412
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,680
My uncle.

413
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,680
And still after 32 years of separation,

414
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,680
it was like there wasn't any separation.

415
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,680
Our lives were basically parallel.

416
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,680
That's too much coincidence.

417
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,680
Too much.

418
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,680
These identical twins were at a part

419
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,680
of a world where they were remarkably like

420
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,680
on almost everything we look at.

421
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,680
Okay, Mark and Jerry, let's have you stand up against the wall over here.

422
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,680
Mark and Jerry are alike, you know, wide array of ways.

423
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,680
They have a lot of gestures and postures that are the same.

424
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,680
They tend to hold their beer can in the same way.

425
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,680
They tend to laugh in the same way.

426
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,680
There's kind of a cycle and a pattern to their laughter.

427
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,680
And I've watched them sit in chairs

428
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,680
and just watch the way they crossed their legs, things of that sort.

429
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,680
There's a whole pattern to their behavior that's very much alike.

430
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,680
Now that raises the question,

431
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:46,680
how is it that two individuals, rear to part in entirely different environments,

432
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:51,680
come 40 years later when they're reunited to be so similar?

433
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,680
We really as scientists simply do not know.

434
00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,680
In some cases, the unique bond between identical twins is even more mystifying.

435
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,680
Some identical twins claim to have paranormal experiences,

436
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,680
such as telepathic communication or ESP,

437
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,680
and even a bizarre phenomenon known as shared pain.

438
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:16,680
Scientists can either dismiss or explain these strange occurrences.

439
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,680
There's a saying among twins that's very, very common.

440
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,680
It's us against the world.

441
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:25,680
So when we go back to back, we can see 360 degrees.

442
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,680
We're not blindsided.

443
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,680
We see things that other people don't,

444
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,680
and we protect each other.

445
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:37,680
Identical twins Lewis and Donald Keith have lived in separate cities for most of their lives,

446
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,680
but believe they are connected by a sixth sense.

447
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,680
They even claim to have experienced shared pain.

448
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,680
The first incident occurred three years ago

449
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,680
while Lewis was working out at a health club in Chicago.

450
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:55,680
I took a swim.

451
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,680
I did a few bicycle exercises,

452
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:03,680
and I tried this exercise, which had been told to me

453
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:09,680
was good for getting rid of those, I guess they're colloquially called, love handles

454
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,680
that everybody would like to get rid of.

455
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,680
Anyway, I tried the exercise.

456
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,680
It was going along very well.

457
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:17,680
It's not difficult.

458
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:18,680
It's not painful.

459
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,680
It doesn't take any great intellectual talent,

460
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,680
but I hurt myself.

461
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:29,680
It was probably the most intense pain that I ever felt in my life.

462
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:38,680
At that exact moment, Donald was over 500 miles away at his office

463
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,680
just outside of Washington, D.C.

464
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,680
I had some papers to Xerox at the office,

465
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,680
and as I was walking down the corridor,

466
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:53,680
there was this pain in my right groin area.

467
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:58,680
This pain was unlike any I had ever experienced in my life,

468
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,680
and then it was gone.

469
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,680
And I wondered, what was the pain and what caused it?

470
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,680
Later that day, I called Lewis,

471
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,680
and his secretary said that he had injured himself,

472
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,680
and he was home.

473
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:17,680
And then my curiosity got the best of me, and I said...

474
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,680
Curiosity or a sixth sense?

475
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,680
I don't know. I really don't know whether it was curiosity or sixth sense,

476
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,680
but I wanted to know where you hurt yourself.

477
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:31,680
And then I found out that he had injured himself

478
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,680
in the same place that I felt this pain,

479
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,680
and then I asked him about the time.

480
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,680
And when the time clicked, I remembered distinctly

481
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,680
the hair on the back of my neck standing up.

482
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:46,680
It was electric.

483
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,680
I could just feel every hair sticking straight out.

484
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:58,680
The experience of sharing pain proved again

485
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,680
that we were identical twins, again that we were very close,

486
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,680
again that psychologically and psychically

487
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,680
we were able to communicate with us.

488
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:10,680
It didn't surprise it.

489
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,680
It just confirmed what we already knew.

490
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:17,680
We feel pain for each other.

491
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,680
Whenever anything happens to one,

492
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:22,680
the other one can experience it,

493
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,680
like if they're going through the same thing herself.

494
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,680
For example, I fell downstairs at school.

495
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,680
They came in to tell my sister they were taking me to the hospital,

496
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,680
and she was unconscious.

497
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,680
LaVona and LaVelda Richmond were born in 1933

498
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,680
and have lived together ever since,

499
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,680
even after they married their identical twin husbands,

500
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,680
Alwyn and Arthur.

501
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,680
We are what they call identical mirror image twins.

502
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,680
Our medical history has been pretty much the same throughout our life.

503
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,680
In fact, when one gets ill anymore,

504
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,680
they check the other one to make sure she's going to be okay.

505
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,680
We've had townsals taken out together.

506
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,680
We've had breast biopsies the same time.

507
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,680
And we had major surgery together.

508
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,680
Now eye correction is the same except for opposite eyes.

509
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,680
My left eye is my weak eye.

510
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,680
My right eye is my root weak eye.

511
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,680
And our cavities have appeared on opposite sides.

512
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,680
LaVona and LaVelda have taken part

513
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,680
in many scientific studies of twin behavior.

514
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,680
In one study, they were rated highest among the 300 sets of twins

515
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,680
tested for extrasensory perception.

516
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:32,680
We feel among every set of twins,

517
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,680
one is the sender and one is the receiver.

518
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:37,680
I happen to be the receiver.

519
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,680
And I am the sender.

520
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:41,680
And whenever LaVelda has been in an occasion

521
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,680
where she has felt pain or has been in trouble,

522
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:46,680
I have sensed it.

523
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,680
The most startling example of this unique psychic bond occurred in 1952.

524
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,680
LaVelda was riding in a car with a young man

525
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,680
who had asked her to join him in town for a cup of coffee.

526
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,680
Where are you going? The coffee shop is this way.

527
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,680
Don't worry about it.

528
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,680
We'll somewhere nice and quiet where you and I can talk.

529
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,680
When this gentleman turned the opposite direction

530
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,680
of what he was supposed to turn,

531
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:12,680
I knew something was wrong.

532
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,680
I got very, very uneasy.

533
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:19,680
And I moved over as close to the passenger side of the door as I could.

534
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,680
And the more he drove, the more agitigate he got,

535
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,680
and the more frightened I got.

536
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,680
And I thought I was in trouble.

537
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,680
Then when the car skidded,

538
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,680
the only thing I could think of was,

539
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,680
oh my God, what are they going to tell my sister?

540
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,680
And evidently, that's when I got the strong message,

541
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,680
was when she started thinking of me,

542
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:47,680
how I was going to react if something had happened to her.

543
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,680
I was sitting in the living room studying.

544
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,680
And all of a sudden, it's just like if I went into a trance.

545
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,680
I could see what was happening,

546
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,680
but I could not stop the vision from happening.

547
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,680
Ivona, what's wrong?

548
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,680
Dad, I called the police.

549
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:13,680
The police what for?

550
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:15,680
Sis has been in an accident.

551
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:17,680
And I told father to call the police,

552
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,680
and I could not convince him that Sis was in trouble.

553
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,680
She's hurting. She's been in an accident.

554
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:24,680
How do you know?

555
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,680
I can see it. She's on a country road.

556
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,680
He told me I was jealous, I couldn't be with him.

557
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,680
That this was the first time we had been separated for any event,

558
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,680
and I'd better get used to it,

559
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:38,680
because there would be other times that would be separated from her also.

560
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,680
The car stopped just inches

561
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,680
before plummeting into a water-filled ravine.

562
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:45,680
Are you okay?

563
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,680
Lavelda hit her head on the dashboard,

564
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:49,680
but was not seriously hurt.

565
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,680
I did not see her hit her head on the dash at the time.

566
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:59,680
What I did see was a farmer coming with a tractor,

567
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:01,680
pulling them out of a ditch,

568
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,680
and I turned to dad, it's all right, Dad.

569
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:08,680
The danger has passed. She's going to be okay.

570
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,680
See, Dad, I told you.

571
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:15,680
You okay?

572
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,680
I was not surprised when Lavelda came in the house.

573
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,680
I was showing a little bit where for her adventure,

574
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,680
because I could sense what was happening,

575
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,680
and I knew what was happening,

576
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,680
but I was surprised at Dad's reaction.

577
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,680
Listen, I don't say a word.

578
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,680
Lavelda, you said you saw this thing happen, right?

579
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:38,680
We're going to get in the car right now,

580
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,680
and you're going to take us to where this thing happened.

581
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,680
And I said, hi, am I going to do it, Dad?

582
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:43,680
I've never been there.

583
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,680
He said, you saw it. You can show me where it is.

584
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:50,680
Just keep going this way.

585
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:51,680
All right.

586
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,680
Dad asked Lavelda which way to go,

587
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,680
and she directed him.

588
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,680
I sat in the back seat, and I kept very quiet all the way.

589
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:06,680
And the last we were driving, I told Dad,

590
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:07,680
you turn here, Dad.

591
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,680
You say, you ever been here before?

592
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:10,680
I said, no.

593
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:11,680
How do you know?

594
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,680
I said, I feel it. Turn here.

595
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,680
And she directed Dad to the actual road,

596
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,680
and when she got there, you could see the tire tracks

597
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,680
where we went off and where we were pulled back

598
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:21,680
onto the road.

599
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:25,680
Is this the place, honey?

600
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:27,680
Yes. It happened right here.

601
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:30,680
After we reached the crash site,

602
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,680
he said, you were right.

603
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,680
I never actually believed it could happen before.

604
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,680
He said, I know you told me it has happened in the past,

605
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,680
but he said, this is the first time I've actually saw it,

606
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:42,680
and I would never doubt you again.

607
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,680
If you tell me one of you is in danger,

608
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,680
he said, I'll believe you.

609
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,680
Three intriguing stories, three sets of identical twins.

610
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,680
Are they born with a paranormal ability

611
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,680
to sanately communicate?

612
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,680
If you were an identical twin, perhaps you already know.

613
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,680
The rest of us can only wonder.

614
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,680
When we return, a poignant story

615
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,680
of a Tennessee family search for their missing sister.

616
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,680
Our next story is about a family in the best sense of the word.

617
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,680
A family that has survived hard times

618
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:32,680
and endured to see better times.

619
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,680
But for the Hinkle family of Tennessee,

620
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,680
there was a sadness that the passing of 65 years

621
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,680
has not managed to erode.

622
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,680
It began when two infant girls were torn from their home.

623
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,680
Tonight, with your help, those painful memories

624
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,680
may finally be put to rest,

625
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,680
and you may be able to help reunite a family.

626
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,680
Greenville, Tennessee.

627
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,680
A small rural community 60 miles northeast of Knoxville.

628
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,680
It was the summer of 1924,

629
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,680
and though the Great Depression was five years away,

630
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,680
it arrived earlier than the tobacco farmers

631
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,680
who carved out a marginal living in the countryside.

632
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:14,680
Times were tough that summer,

633
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,680
and tenant farmer Rufus Hinkle

634
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,680
was forced to make an agonizing decision.

635
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,680
Shortly after giving birth to twin girls,

636
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,680
Rufus' wife of 22 years had died.

637
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,680
With nine other miles to feed,

638
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,680
Rufus felt incapable of making ends meet.

639
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,680
We're there a little bit sick,

640
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,680
but they can go to the hospital for a couple of weeks.

641
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,680
Here, hold your sister while I get in the truck.

642
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,680
Now, be careful. Be careful with her now.

643
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,680
Now, while I'm gone, son, Lloyd is in charge.

644
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,680
So you pay attention to what Lloyd says.

645
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,680
You hear me? He'd be a good boy.

646
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,680
He was a man that loved his family,

647
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:53,680
and he hated to part with any of us,

648
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:55,680
especially the twins,

649
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,680
but sometime you got to sacrifice

650
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,680
and just do the best you can do.

651
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,680
Bye, Mary. Bye, Martha.

652
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,680
Bye, Papa. Bye, son.

653
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,680
On that hot July afternoon in 1924,

654
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,680
Rufus Hinkle took his two baby girls

655
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:18,680
on a one-way trip to the orphanage.

656
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,680
He hoped to reclaim Mary and Martha

657
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,680
once his fortunes improved.

658
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,680
I'm sure that after he left the twins at the orphanage

659
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,680
that he worried about them and thought about them a lot,

660
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:35,680
and one of his sons, Lloyd,

661
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,680
remembers going to the orphanage with Rufus

662
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,680
to see about the twins and see if they could take them back.

663
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,680
Sadly, it was too late.

664
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,680
The twins had already been given away.

665
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,680
We did try to place them together,

666
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,680
but that was just not possible.

667
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:53,680
They'll be well taken care of, you say?

668
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:55,680
You don't have to worry about that. They're with fine families.

669
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,680
Well, must be the Lord's will.

670
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:00,680
I'm very sorry, Mr. Hinkle.

671
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:02,680
Thank you, ma'am.

672
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,680
Come on, son. We're going home.

673
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,680
Rufus Hinkle never saw his two daughters again.

674
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,680
He passed away in 1950.

675
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:23,680
Later on, I heard that they would not tell us

676
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,680
where they were at until my father died.

677
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,680
So shortly after he died,

678
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:33,680
we started looking for the twins and we found Mary.

679
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:39,680
In 1955, Rufus' son, Shorty, contacted the orphanage.

680
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:43,680
Though unable to locate Martha, they were able to trace Mary.

681
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:46,680
In September of that year,

682
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,680
Shorty and his wife drove into Bluefield, West Virginia

683
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,680
to meet the sister he never knew.

684
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,680
As we drove by, my wife says to me,

685
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,680
right there she sat, said,

686
00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,680
I know that's her. She looks just like your brother.

687
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:01,680
And sure it was Mary.

688
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,680
We know the first look that it was.

689
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,680
And it was a very happy time. Very.

690
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:18,680
It was like finding a part of you that had always been missing.

691
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:21,680
And just like putting something together,

692
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,680
and when you put two and two together, you got a hold, you know?

693
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,680
And it was just great.

694
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:28,680
Oh, it feels great to know that we can,

695
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,680
we'll all be together at times and be a family

696
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,680
that they are a part of me and part of my,

697
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:36,680
I'm part of their blood, they're part of mine.

698
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,680
Why don't you come on over here and have a seat.

699
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,680
Let me take your picture.

700
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,680
Okay. Sit down.

701
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,680
Okay. Smile.

702
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:48,680
Oh, great. No shorty.

703
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,680
It's amazing how much he looks like Dalton.

704
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,680
I can't believe it. She does.

705
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,680
That afternoon, Mary learned that she had a twin sister.

706
00:36:57,680 --> 00:36:59,680
Mary, I've got some news for you.

707
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:02,680
You have a twin sister named Martha.

708
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,680
Really? Really.

709
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:06,680
I just don't came to explain how I did feel,

710
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:12,680
not knowing that I had a twin sister, a part of me.

711
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:13,680
Where is she?

712
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:15,680
Well, we don't know that exactly.

713
00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:19,680
Shorty told Mary that the orphanage had lost track of Martha.

714
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,680
She had never been officially adopted,

715
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,680
and instead been sent to a temporary home.

716
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,680
We can't seem to find her.

717
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:30,680
I've often wondered if it's been good,

718
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,680
or if Martha's life has been bad.

719
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,680
You wonder about them things.

720
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,680
Thirty years later, Rufus' granddaughter, Jackie,

721
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,680
took on the family quest.

722
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:46,680
Well, I started my search for Martha at Hostin Home

723
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:48,680
for children in Greenville,

724
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,680
and I was placed along with Mary in 1924.

725
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,680
And they showed me what records you know that they could

726
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:56,680
that were available.

727
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,680
Record to her.

728
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:00,680
Yeah.

729
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:04,680
In 1986, Jackie uncovered the original orphanage records.

730
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:06,680
Greenville, Tennessee.

731
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,680
She learned that in November of 1924,

732
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:10,680
Martha had been given temporarily

733
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,680
to a Charles and Lidah meek in Johnson City,

734
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,680
a small town 30 miles away from Greenville.

735
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:17,680
She's adorable.

736
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,680
Oh, wonderful.

737
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:24,680
So then I centered my search in Johnson City,

738
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,680
and I went through old record books and census records

739
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,680
and city directories and things of that sort.

740
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,680
Went down Sydney Street where she was supposed to live,

741
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:39,680
and I've never found any trace of the meeks whatsoever,

742
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:43,680
so I really don't know what happened to them from there.

743
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,680
Congratulations.

744
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,680
Not much is known about the meeks,

745
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,680
other than the fact that Charles was a 34-year-old farmer

746
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,680
and a member of the Holiness Church.

747
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:56,680
Well...

748
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:58,680
In April of 1990,

749
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:02,680
three generations of Hankels got together for a family reunion.

750
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:06,680
There was only one person missing.

751
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:10,680
Today, the family refuses to give up the search for Martha.

752
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,680
They are certain that she is alive somewhere.

753
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,680
They want her to become part of a family

754
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,680
that has never stopped caring about one another.

755
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,680
Our family has been very close, very close,

756
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:28,680
but we're not a complete family without finding any other sister.

757
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,680
We found Mary, this was the part of it,

758
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,680
but there's still a part of us missing yet.

759
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:39,680
Oh, it would just be the happiest day of my life

760
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:44,680
to get to be reunited with my twin sister, Martha.

761
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,680
There are no known pictures of Martha,

762
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:51,680
but there is a chance that Mary and Martha are identical twins.

763
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:55,680
These photographs of Mary may help identify her lost sister.

764
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,680
The first was taken when she was eight years old.

765
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,680
The second when she was 17.

766
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:06,680
This is how Mary appears today.

767
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:10,680
She and Martha were born in the spring of 1924.

768
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:14,680
They were taken to the Holston Orphanage in Greenville, Tennessee

769
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,680
when they were four months old.

770
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,680
Shortly after our broadcast,

771
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,680
one of our viewers, Sandy Detain of San Bernardino, California,

772
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,680
contacted the Hankel family with surprising news.

773
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,680
During a search for her mother's biological family,

774
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,680
Sandy accidentally discovered the location

775
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,680
of Martha Hankel's adopted family.

776
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,680
Martha lived with John and Lidah Meeks for three years.

777
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:42,680
When the couple divorced,

778
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:45,680
Martha was taken in by the Dan Jackson family

779
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:47,680
of Johnson County, Georgia.

780
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,680
In 1940, she married James Thomas,

781
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,680
and together they had four sons.

782
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,680
Sadly, Martha passed away just weeks

783
00:40:56,680 --> 00:41:00,680
before the Hankel family could contact her.

784
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,680
I'm glad that I found her.

785
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,680
We won't have to do no more searching,

786
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:09,680
but it's so sad that I couldn't meet her,

787
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,680
that I couldn't be with her just to talk to her,

788
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:17,680
just for air to and tell her that I loved her.

789
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,680
Although she never realized her dream

790
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:23,680
of meeting her twin sister,

791
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,680
Mary's 35-year search was not in vain.

792
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,680
On July 27, 1991,

793
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,680
Martha's four sons met Mary

794
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,680
and decided the family they had never known.

795
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,680
That day, in a bittersweet reunion,

796
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,680
two families came together as one.

797
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,680
We were part of the family before we ever walked up

798
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,680
and touched one of them.

799
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:50,680
It was written all over their faces.

800
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,680
When we saw those smiles and tender hearts,

801
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,680
all the little fears, big fears,

802
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,680
and apprehensions just left.

803
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,680
It was all over the whip.

804
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:02,680
I'm glad to be home with our family.

805
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,680
I'm proud that she left four sons,

806
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:12,680
left part of her here for me to get together

807
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,680
and know her through her sons.

808
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:19,680
But part of them is gone that I never found,

809
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:21,680
and I never will find,

810
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,680
but she'll always be in my heart.

811
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:34,680
The End

812
00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,680
Next, a cunning and disturbed child molester

813
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:40,680
is added to the FBI's 10 Most Wanted List.

814
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:52,680
40 years ago, the Federal Bureau of Investigation

815
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:54,680
initiated its 10 Most Wanted List

816
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:57,680
to alert the public of the most dangerous criminals in America.

817
00:42:57,680 --> 00:42:59,680
Now from Washington, D.C.,

818
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:03,680
a special appeal by FBI Director William Sessions.

819
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:09,680
Since 1950, 125 fugitives on the FBI's 10 Most Wanted List

820
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,680
have been captured thanks to your help.

821
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,680
Tonight, with this broadcast of Unsolved Mysteries,

822
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:17,680
we are announcing the most recent addition

823
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:19,680
to the Most Wanted List.

824
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,680
He is Kenneth Robert Stanton,

825
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,680
who has been on charges of child molestation, burglary,

826
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,680
unlawful flight to avoid prosecution,

827
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:28,680
and impersonating a police officer.

828
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:30,680
Please watch carefully.

829
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:37,680
In 1964, Kenneth Robert Stanton was convicted of child molestation.

830
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:41,680
He was committed to a state mental hospital in Ionia, Michigan.

831
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:45,680
Stanton was diagnosed as a criminal sexual psychopath.

832
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:50,680
A few years later, Stanton was declared fit to re-enter society

833
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:52,680
and set free.

834
00:43:55,680 --> 00:44:00,680
In 1989, Kenneth Stanton was identified by a young girl in Jackson, Mississippi.

835
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,680
The events she described matched the modus operandi

836
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,680
of numerous molestations attributed to Stanton.

837
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:12,680
Kenneth Robert Stanton quite frequently scouts

838
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:14,680
in upper middle class white neighborhood

839
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:19,680
and carefully selects a house where a victim is quite often home alone.

840
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:24,680
Usually, a young white female is between the ages of 7 and 12,

841
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:29,680
and his job as a traveling salesman permits him time to do this.

842
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:33,680
He is careful to approach the house so as not to disturb anybody.

843
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,680
He usually wears a conservative suit.

844
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:38,680
He's nice looking. He's well dressed.

845
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,680
Quite often, Stanton comes to the front door of the house,

846
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:47,680
presents himself as a person of authority,

847
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:52,680
and quite often shows a badge as though he were a policeman dressed in plain clothes.

848
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,680
Hi, is your mother home?

849
00:44:57,680 --> 00:44:58,680
No.

850
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,680
Well, I'm Officer Tom Cole. I'm with the local police department.

851
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,680
We're helping out the county health service.

852
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,680
There's been a report of contaminated milk in the area,

853
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:07,680
and I'd like to come in and check if I could.

854
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:09,680
I'm not supposed to let strangers in the house.

855
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:11,680
Well, I'm not a stranger. I'm a policeman.

856
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:13,680
I've been up and down the neighborhood all day

857
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:16,680
checking your neighbor's icebox for the milk and the expiration date.

858
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:23,680
He often has a clipboard and indicates to the child in the house that he's taking a survey

859
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:29,680
or that he's looking for contaminated milk and that he's there to test the milk and the refrigerator.

860
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,680
Do you know where your milk is coming from?

861
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:33,680
No.

862
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:36,680
Well, that's even more reason I should come in and check.

863
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:38,680
It'll only take a minute.

864
00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:41,680
If a young person would resist entry,

865
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:46,680
Stanton quite often displays a bag of marijuana or a marijuana cigarette,

866
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:48,680
stating that he found this on the front porch,

867
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:52,680
and he's entitled to search the house for evidence.

868
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,680
Well, how do I know that you're really a policeman?

869
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,680
Well, here's my badge.

870
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,680
He has a high IQ, and he's very intelligent,

871
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,680
and he's able to gain their confidence to get inside the house.

872
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:05,680
I'll be gone.

873
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:06,680
Okay.

874
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:07,680
All right.

875
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:18,680
Once he's inside and he's determined that the children or child is alone,

876
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:21,680
he blindfolds them frequently.

877
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:26,680
Quite often he uses eye drops and a thermometer, possibly for a distraction.

878
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:31,680
It's at that time then that he continues on and assaults the children.

879
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:32,680
Get out.

880
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:33,680
Get out.

881
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:39,680
In the summer of 1989, at Jackson, Mississippi, Stanton,

882
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,680
was in the house of a young white female attempting to assault

883
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,680
when she screamed and scared him away.

884
00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:50,680
When he ran out of the house, a neighbor boy saw him jump into a car

885
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:53,680
and correctly wrote down his license tag number.

886
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,680
Thereafter, police were able to use that license number

887
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:05,680
and identify that car as being registered to Kenneth Robert Stanton of Mobile, Alabama.

888
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:09,680
Christy, what I need you to do is I need you to look at each and every picture

889
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:13,680
and think in your mind what this man looks like,

890
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:18,680
and then look at each and every picture and pick out the picture that looks like him.

891
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:19,680
Okay?

892
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:20,680
Hey.

893
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:22,680
The young girl who was assaulted on that day,

894
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:27,680
thereafter picked out a photograph of Stanton from a spread presented to her

895
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,680
by the Jackson, Mississippi Police Department.

896
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,680
That's the man.

897
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:33,680
That's the man?

898
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:35,680
That's him.

899
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:38,680
After the Jackson, Mississippi assault,

900
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:42,680
Stanton apparently traveled east through Alabama and Georgia

901
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:48,680
and committed several crimes before he was identified at Houston County, Georgia.

902
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:54,680
There were identifications of Stanton at Jackson, Mississippi and Columbus, Mississippi,

903
00:47:54,680 --> 00:48:01,680
as well as Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Leesburg, Georgia, Douglasville, Georgia, and Warner Robbins, Georgia.

904
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:10,680
Stanton is suspected of at least 11 child molestations from Mississippi, Alabama, and into Georgia.

905
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:16,680
After reviewing a number of these cases and looking at Stanton's history from the early 1960s,

906
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:21,680
we were able to conclude that he apparently was a lifelong child molester

907
00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:26,680
and probably could be described as a serial child molester.

908
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:32,680
Kenneth Robert Stanton is 52 years old, approximately 6 feet tall and weighs 170 pounds.

909
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:35,680
He has blue eyes and brown thinning hair.

910
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:39,680
He usually wears glasses and occasionally sports a mustache and beard.

911
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:43,680
Stanton travels frequently and works as a heavy equipment salesman.

912
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:45,680
He is known to have relatives in Indiana.

913
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:50,680
In December of 1989, his car was found abandoned in Terriesburg, Ohio.

914
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,680
Update. Kenneth Robert Stanton has been captured.

915
00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:01,680
Within minutes of our broadcast, several viewers called our telecenter

916
00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:05,680
to report that Stanton was living in a trailer park in Moreno, Ohio with his wife.

917
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,680
He had been married just a few weeks earlier.

918
00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:12,680
Local police and FBI agents arrived at Stanton's trailer

919
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:16,680
only to learn that he himself had seen our broadcast and fled.

920
00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:20,680
Stanton's wife and neighbors were stuck.

921
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:23,680
I've talked to my son and I've had him in front of the house

922
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,680
staying in the yard just in case he comes back.

923
00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:29,680
You know, I don't want someone like him running around the streets at all.

924
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:33,680
You know, anyone that does anything like that should be put away.

925
00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:36,680
Five days later, Stanton's identified in Rock Hill, South Carolina

926
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:41,680
after he allegedly attempted to molest a nine-year-old girl.

927
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:43,680
Based on seeing the segment on the program,

928
00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:45,680
coupled with a police report,

929
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:50,680
we suspected there was a strong possibility that Stanton was in Rock Hill

930
00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:52,680
or somewhere in this area.

931
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:57,680
And we proceeded on that assumption that he was possibly staying at a local motel.

932
00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:04,680
Two days later, FBI agents spotted Stanton's car in the parking lot of this motel.

933
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:06,680
After identifying the vehicle,

934
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:13,680
we established the surveillance of the motel with FBI agents in New York County Sheriff's Department of Detectives.

935
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:19,680
Incredibly, a check with the motel office revealed that Stanton had registered under his own name.

936
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:25,680
He had indicated to the clerk previously that he wanted to stay an additional week,

937
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:28,680
but he also wanted to move to the main building.

938
00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:35,680
The clerk in our direction called his room, told him the new room was ready

939
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:37,680
and he could move.

940
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,680
When Stanton emerged from his room, we arrested him.

941
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:44,680
We asked Stanton his name. He said, you know who I am.

942
00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:50,680
And he indicated that he was not a threat to us, that he was only a threat to himself.

943
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:54,680
He did indicate that the following day was his birthday.

944
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:17,680
Next week, Unsolved Mysteries falls on Halloween.

945
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:24,680
In keeping with that tradition, four intriguing mysteries of eerie people and events which cannot be explained.

946
00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:31,680
Scores of witnesses in South Carolina say they have encountered legendary ghosts called the Gray Man.

947
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:37,680
Some even claim that he has saved their homes by warning them of approaching hurricanes.

948
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:45,680
We'll also meet a woman named Katie, whose apparent psychic powers have left eyewitnesses baffled and skeptics crying fraud.

949
00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:53,680
On Halloween, just two years ago, 29-year-old David Stone set forth on a spiritual odyssey in the bleak desert in New Mexico.

950
00:51:53,680 --> 00:52:00,680
He never returned. Authorities are still perplexed by a trail of mystical clues he left behind.

951
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:05,680
Join us on Halloween for a special edition of Unsolved Mysteries.
