1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,600 This program is about unsolved mysteries. Whenever possible, the actual family members 2 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,680 and police officials have participated in recreating the events. What you are about 3 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:15,680 to see is not a news broadcast. 4 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:28,680 Do you have any pain anywhere? Can you wiggle your toes for me? Do you know your name? Can 5 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:35,680 you squeeze my hand? You'll be okay. You're in the hospital. Can you tell me your name? 6 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:41,880 I'm still hypothermic. I'm still. When I first regained consciousness, I was extremely 7 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,600 afraid and confused. I didn't know who any of these people were. I didn't know if these 8 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,400 people were going to hurt me, whether they were going to help me. I wanted to know who 9 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:55,000 they were, where I was, who I was. My mind just felt like a big white sheet of paper 10 00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:01,680 that was nothing there. Fear was probably the most overriding feeling. Fear and confusion. 11 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:03,680 Everything's overpowered me. 12 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:04,680 I'm scared. 13 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,720 You're in the hospital. Do you know your name? 14 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:13,360 This man has amnesia. He is lost and alone. He has no idea where he's from, how old he 15 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,360 is, or even if he has a family. 16 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,560 Can you tell me your name? 17 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,360 Tonight on Unsolved Mysteries, we will examine this frightening and most baffling case of 18 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:27,440 amnesia. Found wandering in the desert nine months ago, this young man remains frozen 19 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:33,360 in a shadowy existence of not knowing who he is, with no past and no future. Perhaps 20 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,600 you can help. 21 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:41,440 We'll also profile the twisted saga of Joe Maloney. Maloney learned his estranged wife 22 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:46,520 into drinking a cocktail laced with poison. She died, and he has been at large for more 23 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,560 than 20 years. 24 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,960 We believe that this ancient strip of linen called the Shroud of Turin is the actual burial 25 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:59,640 cloth of Jesus Christ, and that it bears a miraculous imprint of Christ's body. Skeptics 26 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:05,160 claim that the shroud is the work of a masterful medieval forger. 27 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,480 Join me for this fascinating edition of Unsolved Mysteries. 28 00:02:49,560 --> 00:03:09,240 On January 28, 1991, a young man was found wandering aimlessly through the desert 30 29 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:15,520 miles from Las Vegas, Nevada. He was dressed in three layers of clothing, carried no identification, 30 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:22,520 and had apparently been in the desert for at least three days. 31 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,520 You OK? You OK? What happened? 32 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,520 I'm fine. 33 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,520 OK. 34 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:40,520 He was rushed to a hospital suffering from exposure and extreme dehydration. 35 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,520 Are you having any pain anywhere? 36 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:48,520 The patient was diagnosed with psychogenic amnesia, a condition caused not by physical 37 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,520 injury, but by some traumatic emotional experience. 38 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,520 Can you wiggle your toes for me? 39 00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:01,040 While a mysterious young man quickly regained his physical health, his memory remained completely 40 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:05,720 and totally blocked. The hospital staff gave him the name Tyler, and enrolled him in a 41 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:11,000 state-funded program which provided a job in an apartment. In the past nine months, several 42 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:16,720 tantalizing clues have surfaced. But Tyler is still a man without an identity. Tonight, 43 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:24,720 he desperately hopes that someone watching can finally tell him who he is. 44 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,920 Authorities in Las Vegas were baffled. They found no unreported missing who matched Tyler's 45 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:34,160 description. There was no record of his fingerprints with the FBI and the Department of Defense 46 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:40,480 of the CIA. However, doctors did find two clues. Evidence of hairline fractures in the 47 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:45,760 knuckles of both hands and what is believed to be an old gunshot wound on his right thigh. 48 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:52,760 Otherwise, it is as if Tyler never existed. Then another clue surfaced. During a conversation 49 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:59,280 with a fellow patient from San Diego, California, Tyler got the eerie feeling that he once lived 50 00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:06,200 there. But the recollections were vague and lacked any detail until he underwent hypnosis. 51 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:11,880 Under hypnosis has kind of sharpened the memories that I was having, and it brought pictures 52 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,440 to them. Whereas most of my memories of the past came to me just seemed like words coming 53 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:21,880 out of my mouth and more like I was looking at a piece of paper. Then I was really living 54 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:27,080 the memory, and this brought life to it. I started remembering a lot about the beaches 55 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:31,560 and different things around the beaches. I also remembered a lot about the military bases 56 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:38,160 in San Diego. There's North Island, Naval Air Station. There's a Coast Guard airfield 57 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,840 right across from Lindbergh Field, actually more like a hangar. And they have a gate that 58 00:05:41,840 --> 00:05:47,800 they open up and bring the planes across to Harbor Boulevard there. And it just really 59 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:54,700 got a sense of belonging like San Diego was the place that I needed to be. 60 00:05:54,700 --> 00:05:59,980 Under hypnosis, Tyler also vividly recalled flying over San Diego. He was struck by the 61 00:05:59,980 --> 00:06:07,660 certainty that he knew how to pilot an airplane. Tyler felt that getting behind the controls 62 00:06:07,660 --> 00:06:12,900 of a plane might help trigger additional memories. Accompanied by a flight instructor, he put 63 00:06:12,900 --> 00:06:18,500 his uncanny knowledge of flying to the test. Okay, let's try another turn, all right? Try 64 00:06:18,500 --> 00:06:22,380 to keep that nose level. Then watch your outtainment or just make sure it stays about the same all 65 00:06:22,820 --> 00:06:28,340 through. Finally, complete control of the plane was given to Tyler and he brought it in for a landing. 66 00:06:28,340 --> 00:06:37,940 There we are, not bad. The instructor concluded that although a little rusty, Tyler had definitely 67 00:06:37,940 --> 00:06:47,860 flown before. As time passed, more intriguing clues emerged. Although Tyler cannot remember 68 00:06:47,900 --> 00:06:53,460 his own name, incredibly he can single-handedly dismantle and rebuild a sophisticated racecar 69 00:06:53,460 --> 00:07:00,780 engine. He also possesses highly developed skills in scuba diving, martial arts and computer 70 00:07:00,780 --> 00:07:06,180 programming. Perhaps most intriguing of all is Tyler's detailed and intimate knowledge 71 00:07:06,180 --> 00:07:11,980 of the bombing mechanisms found on the Navy's A-6 attack plane. Many clues suggest that 72 00:07:11,980 --> 00:07:16,980 Tyler has some kind of military background, but no record of this man discovered in the 73 00:07:17,020 --> 00:07:21,500 desert last January has been found with the Navy or any other branch of the service. 74 00:07:21,500 --> 00:07:28,820 I'm really kind of a difficult point in my life right now where I can't move ahead with 75 00:07:28,820 --> 00:07:34,060 myself. I can't get on with my life. I can't do anything really. I'm almost like an illegal 76 00:07:34,060 --> 00:07:42,060 alien here. I have no identification of any form now. I can't go to work because I'm 77 00:07:42,060 --> 00:07:46,460 not eligible for a social security number. I can't drive a car because I don't have 78 00:07:46,460 --> 00:07:53,300 a social security number or a date of birth. And I'm starting to feel more frustrated as 79 00:07:53,300 --> 00:07:57,620 the days go by because I really feel this needs to come to an end. I do need to find 80 00:07:57,620 --> 00:08:07,020 out who I am. A county psychiatrist diagnosed Tyler as a genuine victim of amnesia. Last 81 00:08:07,020 --> 00:08:11,000 month his case took on added urgency when the state funding which provided his job and 82 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:15,780 apartment was abruptly cut off. Then on the night of our broadcast, Tyler searched for 83 00:08:15,820 --> 00:08:21,380 his identity came to a poignant but unsettling conclusion. Within minutes, Tyler was reunited 84 00:08:21,380 --> 00:08:26,620 with his mother by phone. But as more details emerged, some began to believe that Tyler 85 00:08:26,620 --> 00:08:33,620 may not have lost his memory at all. That evening, Tyler gathered with friends to watch 86 00:08:33,980 --> 00:08:39,860 the show. Before his segment even aired in Las Vegas, a man from Boise, Idaho called our 87 00:08:39,940 --> 00:08:45,940 telecenter and identified Tyler as his son. Unsolved mysteries immediately contacted Tyler. 88 00:08:45,940 --> 00:08:51,940 Yesterday. Sorry, it took so long but everything that I was looking to cross referenced and 89 00:08:51,940 --> 00:08:57,940 we have located your family for you. You have? Yes. I have located your dad and your mother 90 00:08:57,940 --> 00:09:04,940 and your wife who you've been separated from since February of 1990. And she, they've informed 91 00:09:05,940 --> 00:09:11,660 me that you also have two children and your wife lives in Iowa. Your mother lives in Iowa 92 00:09:11,660 --> 00:09:18,060 and your dad lives in Idaho. Okay. Tyler learned that his real name is Arthur Paul Beale but 93 00:09:18,060 --> 00:09:24,260 he goes by Paul. He is 23 years old and before he was stricken with amnesia he lived in Boise, 94 00:09:24,260 --> 00:09:30,100 Idaho. A few minutes later, a nervous Paul Beale called the mother and stepfather he 95 00:09:30,180 --> 00:09:37,180 could not remember. Hello. May I speak with Mrs. Beale? This is Mrs. Beale. This is your 96 00:09:38,020 --> 00:09:45,020 son. How are you? You sound great. I've waited so long to hear you talk. I miss you. I'm 97 00:09:45,020 --> 00:09:52,020 scared. I thought you are. I don't remember you. I don't remember you. I'll help you, 98 00:10:07,420 --> 00:10:14,420 Paul. The emotional phone call lasted nearly 20 minutes. You be strong, Paul. I'm sorry. 99 00:10:15,020 --> 00:10:22,020 Okay. I'll talk to you real soon. Okay. Okay honey. Bye. Bye. 100 00:10:24,500 --> 00:10:30,500 A short time later the case of Paul Beale, aka Tyler Doe, took a stunning and unexpected 101 00:10:30,500 --> 00:10:37,500 twist. North Las Vegas police arrived and placed Paul under arrest for grand larceny. He was 102 00:10:38,020 --> 00:10:45,020 wanted by Boise police in connection with a stolen shipment of frozen food. 103 00:10:45,020 --> 00:10:52,020 How long have you had amnesia? Nine months. How do you remember that? You got amnesia? 104 00:10:52,020 --> 00:10:59,020 I've come to get my son. The next night Paul's mother, Lynn Beale, arrived from Iowa to post 105 00:10:59,020 --> 00:11:06,020 bail for him. Paul. Paul. Their reunion was both emotional and awkward. Paul Beale still 106 00:11:06,020 --> 00:11:13,020 did not recognize his own mother. I don't remember you. He will. I don't remember you. 107 00:11:13,020 --> 00:11:20,020 It's strange being with Paul and his not remembering anything about me, not knowing who I am. I 108 00:11:20,020 --> 00:11:27,020 just want to push everything into his head, make him remember everything. I want to make 109 00:11:27,020 --> 00:11:34,020 sure I can do things to help him. I'm scared I don't want to do something to push it back 110 00:11:34,020 --> 00:11:41,020 farther. I want to reinforce happy thoughts, good memories. I just want him to know I love 111 00:11:43,020 --> 00:11:49,020 him. I just want him to know I love him. I just want him to know I love him. I just want him to 112 00:11:49,020 --> 00:11:56,020 know I love him. I just want him to know I love him. We all love him. Nightmares. And 113 00:11:57,020 --> 00:12:04,020 I'm relieved that he's safe. He's alive. The reunion was tempered not only by Paul's amnesia, 114 00:12:04,020 --> 00:12:11,020 but by the criminal charge against him. In Boise, Paul was a salesman for a food supply 115 00:12:12,020 --> 00:12:19,020 company. On January 5, 1991, he left for Las Vegas to sell a shipment of frozen food. He 116 00:12:19,020 --> 00:12:25,020 never returned to Boise. On January 25, Paul surfaced with the empty truck in Boulder City, 117 00:12:25,020 --> 00:12:32,020 Nevada, where he was questioned but not arrested by local police. At that particular time, 118 00:12:33,020 --> 00:12:40,020 my impression of Mr. Beale was that he was very intelligent. He was very intelligent, 119 00:12:41,020 --> 00:12:48,020 very well-versed, very possibly well-educated, very clean-cut and extremely talkative. It 120 00:12:51,020 --> 00:12:57,020 just wasn't Paul. That isn't something he would do. He's done silly stupid things like 121 00:12:57,020 --> 00:13:02,020 anybody else has made mistakes, but nothing to the degree that this was where he was 122 00:13:02,020 --> 00:13:08,020 actually breaking the law. I told him when he left, I said, Boise, you're going to get 123 00:13:08,020 --> 00:13:12,020 a warrant for you. You know, they're going to do it. It's going to be grand larceny, felony. 124 00:13:12,020 --> 00:13:16,020 So it's just a matter of time. You better get up there and go back up there. He said, 125 00:13:16,020 --> 00:13:21,020 yeah, I'm going back now. I'm going right back up there and take care of the situation. It'll be fine. 126 00:13:23,020 --> 00:13:28,020 Three days after he was detained, Paul Beale, who came to be known as Tyler, was found 127 00:13:28,020 --> 00:13:33,020 wandering in the desert. Detective Barman raises the obvious and disturbing question. 128 00:13:33,020 --> 00:13:40,020 Is Paul Beale faking? Amnesia is easy. I don't know. Who are you? I don't know. Where are you from? 129 00:13:41,020 --> 00:13:47,020 I don't know. Do you know anything? I don't know. It's easy. And a guy like him, he's convincing. 130 00:13:48,020 --> 00:13:59,020 Is this the four of you? Uh-huh. Thanks, Gaby. This still isn't my son in the fact that this isn't how he would react to me. 131 00:13:59,020 --> 00:14:07,020 We were very close. I could tell by his eyes when I first saw him tonight that he really didn't recognize me. 132 00:14:07,020 --> 00:14:17,020 He wanted to. I could see it in his face. He wanted to. If he was faking it, there was no way he could have faked that. 133 00:14:17,020 --> 00:14:39,020 I am not and have not throughout this entire ordeal faked anything. This is probably the most horrifying nightmare that anybody could go through losing an identity losing every ounce and fiber of a person's life having it pulled away. 134 00:14:40,020 --> 00:14:51,020 And then nine months later, I have it given back to you or have it presented to you, but you still don't have it. 135 00:14:54,020 --> 00:14:58,020 I give anything in the world to remember right now. 136 00:15:10,020 --> 00:15:16,020 Next, an international fugitive is wanted for the cold-blooded poisoning of his own wife. 137 00:15:27,020 --> 00:15:30,020 Will you come back here? I have to go to work. We've had this conversation. 138 00:15:30,020 --> 00:15:40,020 In March of 1967, 27-year-old June Maloney of Rochester, New York, walked out on her husband Joseph after five years of emotional and physical abuse. 139 00:15:40,020 --> 00:15:50,020 What about the kids? In an informal agreement, June assumed custody of the couple's two young children. Joe was allowed to visit whenever he wished. 140 00:15:51,020 --> 00:16:11,020 June confided in me that Joe had roughed her up a couple of times. He didn't hit her, she wasn't bruised, but he wasn't above with this flaring Irish temper of turning bright red and jumping around hollering and yelling and looking very dangerous and perhaps grabbing hold of you and shaking you. 141 00:16:11,020 --> 00:16:15,020 And that's pretty intimidating. 142 00:16:16,020 --> 00:16:22,020 So, Neil, suppose I wanted to kill a dog. What kind of poison could I use that couldn't be traced? 143 00:16:22,020 --> 00:16:29,020 Several weeks after June moved out, Joe Maloney paid Neil Dunkel for an unexpected visit. 144 00:16:29,020 --> 00:16:34,020 Neil, an amateur chemist, had set up a laboratory in the basement of his mother's home. 145 00:16:35,020 --> 00:16:54,020 He told me that there was a dog who was continuously tipping over his garbage cans and giving him fits, and he would like to poison the dog, but he was a little shaky about doing this because it belonged to a policeman that lived in his neighborhood. 146 00:16:55,020 --> 00:17:10,020 Joe showed interest in one particular chemical, a clear liquid which is odorless, tasteless and lethal when ingested in sufficient amounts. 147 00:17:11,020 --> 00:17:21,020 When Joe comes in and picks by mind about something like this, immediately afterward I would start thinking, why did he want to know that? 148 00:17:21,020 --> 00:17:37,020 And I got cautious. I went up and I double locked the side door that led into my laboratory and I informed the members of my family that no one was to go into my lab to keep everybody out and especially to keep Joe out. 149 00:17:37,020 --> 00:17:44,020 Josie, thank you so much. I appreciate you letting me down here like this. You are life-sick. 150 00:17:44,020 --> 00:17:46,020 I don't know, Joe. I hope this is okay. 151 00:17:46,020 --> 00:18:04,020 Unfortunately, it didn't work. My younger sister was at home, I don't know, two weeks later perhaps, and Joe showed up at the house and sweet-talked her into letting him into my laboratory because he had to sterilize some instruments. 152 00:18:04,020 --> 00:18:11,020 That's all I need. There. That's it. All done. 153 00:18:14,020 --> 00:18:26,020 Two weeks later, June arrived at Joe's house for their son's fifth birthday party. Joe offered June a drink and she stayed at the party for two hours. 154 00:18:26,020 --> 00:18:28,020 Here you are. Oh, thank you. 155 00:18:29,020 --> 00:18:33,020 You know, Joey told me this was his best birthday party ever. Okay? 156 00:18:33,020 --> 00:18:34,020 It's fine, Joe. 157 00:18:34,020 --> 00:18:35,020 Glad you stayed. 158 00:18:35,020 --> 00:18:36,020 It's a real nice day. 159 00:18:36,020 --> 00:18:47,020 During the time that she was at Joe's for the party, she had called up and she was kind of like wound up different than when she left. 160 00:18:47,020 --> 00:18:58,020 And I had asked her, I said, June, I said, how many drinks did you have? And she says, Wanda, I only had two. And so she went to her apartment. 161 00:18:58,020 --> 00:19:07,020 And a while later, I went over to check on her. And I asked her if she wanted me to stay with her. She said, no, she said that was not necessary. 162 00:19:07,020 --> 00:19:11,020 You know, she didn't feel quite well and she was going to go to bed. 163 00:19:11,020 --> 00:19:13,020 That's a good poison. 164 00:19:13,020 --> 00:19:21,020 The next morning, Wanda Mordenga was surprised to find Joe Maloney and a doctor in the hall outside June's apartment. 165 00:19:21,020 --> 00:19:23,020 Is everything all right here? 166 00:19:23,020 --> 00:19:27,020 June isn't feeling too well, so I called the doctor over. She's going to be fine. 167 00:19:27,020 --> 00:19:28,020 I think I'll go check on her. 168 00:19:28,020 --> 00:19:30,020 No, I don't think that's a good idea right now, Wanda. 169 00:19:30,020 --> 00:19:32,020 That's perfectly fine, Mr. Maloney. 170 00:19:32,020 --> 00:19:34,020 I'll just be a couple minutes. 171 00:19:35,020 --> 00:19:43,020 And when I went in to check on June, she was there and we were in the bedroom talking. 172 00:19:43,020 --> 00:19:52,020 And she didn't want me to leave her alone with Joe. She wanted me to stay with her. That was quite definite. She wanted me to stay with her. So I did. 173 00:19:52,020 --> 00:19:54,020 So what did the doctor say? 174 00:19:54,020 --> 00:20:00,020 He said he thought it was food poisoning, but I think it's something else. 175 00:20:01,020 --> 00:20:12,020 Also, she stopped and it was like a, almost, I would almost have to say a fear look in her eyes. 176 00:20:12,020 --> 00:20:16,020 And I looked over and Joe was standing in the doorway. 177 00:20:16,020 --> 00:20:19,020 Can I get you anything, June? 178 00:20:19,020 --> 00:20:21,020 No, thank you. 179 00:20:21,020 --> 00:20:22,020 What are you doing? 180 00:20:22,020 --> 00:20:26,020 I'm just going to the bathroom to get some aspirin. 181 00:20:26,020 --> 00:20:28,020 Aspirin? I'll get you the aspirin. 182 00:20:28,020 --> 00:20:34,020 She got up and walked around a little bit, went into the bathroom and he fouled behind her. 183 00:20:34,020 --> 00:20:36,020 I told you before, I don't want you here. 184 00:20:36,020 --> 00:20:38,020 Look, Joe, I'm just trying to help. 185 00:20:38,020 --> 00:20:39,020 Who wants your help? 186 00:20:39,020 --> 00:20:40,020 June is a friend of mine. 187 00:20:40,020 --> 00:20:42,020 Joe, I want her help. 188 00:20:42,020 --> 00:20:49,020 If you want to do something for me, go to the store and get me some plot. 189 00:20:49,020 --> 00:20:53,020 Okay. I'll get the prescription filled too. 190 00:20:59,020 --> 00:21:04,020 The next day, June lapsed into a coma and was immediately hospitalized. 191 00:21:04,020 --> 00:21:10,020 Despite a battery of tests, doctors could find no cause for her rapid deterioration. 192 00:21:10,020 --> 00:21:14,020 According to Wanda Mordenga, the situation appeared hopeless. 193 00:21:20,020 --> 00:21:23,020 Joe Maloney seemed unruffled by his wife's condition. 194 00:21:23,020 --> 00:21:26,020 He offered his own explanation. 195 00:21:26,020 --> 00:21:31,020 Doctor, my marriage has been on the rocks for about six months now. 196 00:21:31,020 --> 00:21:34,020 We're separated, not living together. 197 00:21:34,020 --> 00:21:41,020 Lately, she's been despondent, depressed, not getting along with people at work, being irritable with my son. 198 00:21:41,020 --> 00:21:46,020 I think there's a possibility that she might have attempted suicide here. 199 00:21:46,020 --> 00:21:54,020 Joe had tried to convince me that June had committed suicide and he told me that I shouldn't talk to anybody about anything. 200 00:21:54,020 --> 00:21:58,020 I didn't think she would commit suicide. 201 00:21:58,020 --> 00:22:05,020 I really wasn't, but I was afraid that they would, you know, somehow they would make it look like that. 202 00:22:05,020 --> 00:22:09,020 June Maloney never regained consciousness. 203 00:22:09,020 --> 00:22:13,020 On June 5, 1967, she died. 204 00:22:13,020 --> 00:22:21,020 An autopsy determined that June had ingested a lethal dose of the same type of chemical Joe had taken from Neil's lab. 205 00:22:25,020 --> 00:22:32,020 Four hours after his wife's death, Joe Maloney was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. 206 00:22:32,020 --> 00:22:38,020 It was, um, I thought she would get better, but she never did. 207 00:22:38,020 --> 00:22:44,020 Um, it was a shock. 208 00:22:44,020 --> 00:22:49,020 I couldn't believe that it happened and he would do that to her. 209 00:22:49,020 --> 00:22:56,020 Against his attorney's advice, Maloney has to be committed to the Rochester State Mental Hospital for psychiatric evaluation. 210 00:22:56,020 --> 00:23:01,020 The court granted his request. 211 00:23:01,020 --> 00:23:08,020 Authorities were unaware that Joe Maloney had once worked at the hospital and was familiar with the layout. 212 00:23:09,020 --> 00:23:21,020 On September 25, 1967, less than two weeks after he was admitted, Joe Maloney escaped from the hospital and disappeared. 213 00:23:25,020 --> 00:23:35,020 Five years later, and more than 3,000 miles away, authorities in Dublin, Ireland were called to investigate a burglary at the home of a Mr. Michael O'Shea. 214 00:23:36,020 --> 00:23:40,020 Morning, sir. Constable Devaney, this is Constable McCormick. 215 00:23:40,020 --> 00:23:45,020 The police apparently already knew Michael O'Shea. 216 00:23:45,020 --> 00:23:50,020 He didn't have any criminal record in Ireland. There was no allegation of criminal wrongdoing on his part. 217 00:23:50,020 --> 00:23:57,020 But, um, they were looking for the burglars' prints. All the people who were in the house obviously weren't the burglars. 218 00:23:57,020 --> 00:24:02,020 Um, so they wanted to be able to eliminate those prints from the prints taken. 219 00:24:02,020 --> 00:24:06,020 Do you mind if we check the mantle piece and the desk for fingerprints? 220 00:24:06,020 --> 00:24:08,020 Oh, no, none at all. 221 00:24:08,020 --> 00:24:10,020 Do you mind if we take your own? 222 00:24:10,020 --> 00:24:11,020 My own. 223 00:24:11,020 --> 00:24:16,020 For elimination purposes. It's standard procedure. 224 00:24:16,020 --> 00:24:18,020 Oh, well, fine. 225 00:24:18,020 --> 00:24:29,020 He allowed him to take his fingerprints. Well, this detective went right into his office and sent it into Interpol. And he had a hit. 226 00:24:30,020 --> 00:24:37,020 Investigators were stunned to discover that Michael O'Shea's fingerprints matched Joseph Maloney's. 227 00:24:39,020 --> 00:24:47,020 Incredibly, the twisted odyssey of Joseph Maloney was not over. He could not be arrested because Ireland and the United States had no extradition agreement. 228 00:24:48,020 --> 00:24:58,020 But 1984, the Irish Parliament did pass an extradition treaty. After 18 years at large, Joseph Maloney, a.k.a. Michael O'Shea, was finally taken into custody. 229 00:24:58,020 --> 00:25:04,020 He was held without bail, all the while steadfastly denying that he was Joseph Maloney. 230 00:25:05,020 --> 00:25:20,020 The suspect remained incarcerated for 14 months at Mount Joy Prison outside Dublin. He refused to cooperate with the authorities and did not allow himself to be photographed. 231 00:25:20,020 --> 00:25:28,020 Then in 1986, the Irish American Extradition Treaty was voided because of illegal technicality. 232 00:25:29,020 --> 00:25:38,020 On July 24 of that year, Joseph Maloney walked out of prison and disappeared, perhaps forever. 233 00:25:38,020 --> 00:25:57,020 When we return, the intriguing mystery of the Shroud of Turin. Could it be the actual burial cloth of Jesus Christ? 234 00:26:09,020 --> 00:26:28,020 The face of Christ, Jesus of Nazareth, his life and death have inspired artists through the ages. But how did they know what Jesus looked like? 235 00:26:29,020 --> 00:26:39,020 For more than 13 centuries, depictions of Jesus have been remarkably similar to one another. Yet the Bible does not contain a single word of physical description. 236 00:26:39,020 --> 00:26:47,020 Many people think this piece of linen holds the key. It is called the Shroud of Turin. 237 00:26:48,020 --> 00:27:05,020 According to the Bible, Jesus was wrapped in fine linen after he was taken from the cross. Many believe the Shroud of Turin is the actual burial cloth of Jesus Christ and that through some miracle his image was imprinted on its threads. 238 00:27:06,020 --> 00:27:25,020 This is the Shroud. It is 3 1 half feet wide and 14 feet long. The brown marks and lines on either side of the image are the results of a fire. After the fire, these triangular patches were sewn on by nuns. 239 00:27:26,020 --> 00:27:40,020 This Renaissance painting shows how the 14 foot long Shroud would have covered the body of Jesus, front and back. 240 00:27:41,020 --> 00:27:55,020 On the second half of the Shroud, there is a rear image showing a man of powerful bill 5 feet 10 inches in height. The faint imprints between the scorch marks are the source of hundreds of years of controversy. 241 00:27:56,020 --> 00:28:06,020 When I first began to study the Shroud of Turin, I was convinced it was a crock and that it would take me probably less than two hours to put away this pious fraud. 242 00:28:06,020 --> 00:28:13,020 After all, anyone with an IQ of 100 or over knows that all relics by definition are frauds. 243 00:28:14,020 --> 00:28:26,020 But I must admit, here I am some 17 years later, I who came to Scalf have stayed to pray. My own personal belief is that the Shroud is probably authentic. 244 00:28:29,020 --> 00:28:38,020 The Shroud was first exhibited publicly in Lyrae, France around 1355 A.D. in the Renaissance period. No one seemed to know where it had come from. 245 00:28:39,020 --> 00:28:50,020 Eventually the Shroud was acquired by the Royal House of Savoy. In 1578 A.D., they moved it to Turin, Italy, where it was rarely shown in public. 246 00:28:50,020 --> 00:28:57,020 In 1898, the Savoys allowed the Shroud to be photographed for the first time by a man named Sagunda Pia. 247 00:28:59,020 --> 00:29:04,020 Surprisingly, his photographic negatives showed more detail than could be seen by the naked eye. 248 00:29:05,020 --> 00:29:20,020 He was to write of this experience years later and would never forget that as he lifted that glass plate, he believed that he was the first person in 2000 years to have seen the face of Jesus of Nazareth. 249 00:29:21,020 --> 00:29:27,020 From that point on, the Shroud of Turin became more and more an object of scientific inquiry. 250 00:29:28,020 --> 00:29:40,020 Dr. Robert Bucklin, a forensic pathologist, has examined life-sized photographic negatives of the Shroud, looking for wounds that might correspond to the crucifixion. 251 00:29:42,020 --> 00:29:55,020 The body shows a number of injuries. On the head, we see a series of blood stains around the forehead, high in the scalp, and along the posterior portion of the scalp. 252 00:29:55,020 --> 00:30:00,020 These are consistent with the application of a crown or a cap of thorns. 253 00:30:01,020 --> 00:30:16,020 On the chest area, there is a rather unique wound. It is quite consistent with a puncture-type wound made by an implement which entered the chest cavity and produced an outflow of vote blood and water. 254 00:30:17,020 --> 00:30:29,020 In the region of the left wrist, there is a puncture wound which was clearly made by some implement which passed into the tissues of the wrist and produced bleeding. 255 00:30:31,020 --> 00:30:36,020 The crucifixion of Jesus has traditionally been depicted with nails driven through his palms. 256 00:30:37,020 --> 00:30:41,020 If it is real, why would the Shroud show puncture wounds through the wrists? 257 00:30:42,020 --> 00:30:50,020 Surprisingly, modern research has confirmed that at the time of Jesus' death, nails were, in fact, driven through the victim's wrists. 258 00:30:53,020 --> 00:31:00,020 Dr. Pierre Barbe, a French surgeon, long ago proved that a nail through the palm would not support the weight of the body. 259 00:31:01,020 --> 00:31:07,020 The Romans did an off of these, sometimes 500 a day, to be excellent anatomists. 260 00:31:08,020 --> 00:31:14,020 And like a butcher, they knew where the bones were. They put it in the wrist and it held the body and held it well. 261 00:31:18,020 --> 00:31:28,020 From the studies I've made on Roman crucifixion, I've been able to prove that the Shroud is an authentic image of Roman crucifixion. 262 00:31:28,020 --> 00:31:33,020 Whereas the medieval, this form of crucifixion was unknown. 263 00:31:36,020 --> 00:31:43,020 According to many, the Shroud of Turin is authentic. They hold that it somehow survived for nearly 2000 years. 264 00:31:44,020 --> 00:31:48,020 That it's stained with the blood of Jesus and bears a miraculous imprint of his body. 265 00:31:49,020 --> 00:31:55,020 However, some scientists believe that the imprint on the Shroud is more likely a masterful work in medieval French or Italian art. 266 00:31:55,020 --> 00:31:59,020 A painting with brush strokes so delicate they cannot be seen by the naked eye. 267 00:32:00,020 --> 00:32:08,020 The controversy about the Shroud's origins has taken on all the earmarks of an obsession for believers and skeptics alike. 268 00:32:10,020 --> 00:32:15,020 In 1978, the Shroud was made available to a number of scientists for the first time. 269 00:32:16,020 --> 00:32:25,020 Using particles lifted from the Shroud with adhesive tape, biophysicist John Heller and chemist Alan Adler determined that there was blood on the cloth. 270 00:32:26,020 --> 00:32:32,020 Further, their analysis showed chemical composition reflecting severe torture consistent with crucifixion. 271 00:32:33,020 --> 00:32:36,020 Their findings, however, are not universally accepted. 272 00:32:37,020 --> 00:32:40,020 When I first started working on it, I expected it to be authentic. 273 00:32:40,020 --> 00:32:43,020 And I looked for body fluids as the way I started. 274 00:32:44,020 --> 00:32:48,020 But the red turned out to be red ochre and another pigment, vermilion. 275 00:32:49,020 --> 00:32:51,020 These are common artist's pigments. 276 00:32:52,020 --> 00:32:55,020 There's no question in my mind that it is a painting. 277 00:32:56,020 --> 00:32:58,020 Many copies of the Shroud were made. 278 00:32:59,020 --> 00:33:07,020 It was felt by pious people at that time if you touched the copy to the original, it would give the copy extra sanctity. 279 00:33:07,020 --> 00:33:10,020 It's called a brandium is the technical name. 280 00:33:11,020 --> 00:33:14,020 When they were touched, of course, some of that pigment ended up on the Shroud. 281 00:33:15,020 --> 00:33:24,020 And that is what has been discovered, but it is not responsible for the image, let alone the whole body image, total front and total back. 282 00:33:26,020 --> 00:33:32,020 Dr. Max Frye, a renowned Swiss botanist who died in 1983, also examined tape samples. 283 00:33:33,020 --> 00:33:36,020 He discovered plant pollen trapped in the threads of the Shroud. 284 00:33:37,020 --> 00:33:42,020 These microscopic organisms have hard shells that allow them to survive for thousands of years. 285 00:33:43,020 --> 00:33:47,020 Dr. Frye found several pollens in the Shroud that were not native to Europe. 286 00:33:48,020 --> 00:33:58,020 In a documentary made five years before his death, Frye stated that most of the pollens came from the Middle East, including the area around Jerusalem where Jesus was crucified. 287 00:33:59,020 --> 00:34:03,020 Oddly, some of the pollens came from the region we now know as Turkey. 288 00:34:05,020 --> 00:34:15,020 The presence of such a significant number of pollens from plants growing in Turkey leads me to one fundamental conclusion. 289 00:34:16,020 --> 00:34:26,020 At some time of its history, the Shroud must have been exposed to the air in southern Turkey or the surroundings of Istanbul. 290 00:34:28,020 --> 00:34:35,020 If the Shroud is genuine, could it have been taken to Turkey after Jesus' death and kept there for more than a thousand years? 291 00:34:36,020 --> 00:34:41,020 Some believe the answer lies in a centuries-old legend which originated in the Turkish city of Odessa. 292 00:34:45,020 --> 00:34:49,020 Around the year 33 AD, the king, Apgar, fell ill. 293 00:34:50,020 --> 00:34:53,020 He had heard of Jesus' power to cure and sent for him. 294 00:34:54,020 --> 00:34:57,020 The king was not aware that Jesus was already dead. 295 00:34:58,020 --> 00:35:03,020 One of his disciples arrived instead carrying a mysterious image of the face of Christ. 296 00:35:04,020 --> 00:35:09,020 The king was immediately cured and the image came to be known as the Odessa cloth. 297 00:35:11,020 --> 00:35:20,020 It was then known only as a face cloth, but there's a key word in ancient documents, tetradiplon, which means doubled in four. 298 00:35:21,020 --> 00:35:25,020 If you double the Shroud in four, you end up with a little rectangle with a face in the middle. 299 00:35:26,020 --> 00:35:35,020 Many believe that the Odessa cloth was the Shroud, folded and partially covered to show only the face, because grave clothes were considered untouchable. 300 00:35:39,020 --> 00:35:44,020 The Odessa cloth was eventually brought to Constantinople, now Istanbul. 301 00:35:46,020 --> 00:35:51,020 In 1204 AD, crusaders sacked the city and the cloth vanished. 302 00:35:56,020 --> 00:36:01,020 150 years later, the Shroud surfaced in France. 303 00:36:02,020 --> 00:36:08,020 Are the pannons found by Max Frye proof that the Shroud was brought to France by returning crusaders? 304 00:36:09,020 --> 00:36:11,020 I think it's impossible. 305 00:36:13,020 --> 00:36:18,020 I'm in an awkward spot at this point because Max Frye was a friend of mine, 306 00:36:18,020 --> 00:36:25,020 but I think that he wanted the Shroud to be real so badly that he found pollen grains, which I didn't find. 307 00:36:26,020 --> 00:36:29,020 I had another set of tapes and I did not find the same pollens. 308 00:36:31,020 --> 00:36:38,020 Optical specialist Kevin Moran claims that computer studies reveal the unique qualities of the image on the Shroud. 309 00:36:40,020 --> 00:36:47,020 When I take a normal photograph, such as this child, and I place the child under the analyzer, 310 00:36:48,020 --> 00:36:52,020 I immediately see a very distorted figure. 311 00:36:53,020 --> 00:36:56,020 The nose with respect to the cheek is totally distorted. 312 00:36:57,020 --> 00:37:02,020 And this is because this is a reflected image. This image is made by reflected light. 313 00:37:03,020 --> 00:37:09,020 This is not what we see on the Shroud. The Shroud is a very different type of image. 314 00:37:10,020 --> 00:37:14,020 The image immediately comes into a three-dimensional form. 315 00:37:15,020 --> 00:37:20,020 The eyes and nose-mouth relationship are all clearly recognizable. 316 00:37:21,020 --> 00:37:29,020 The image on the Shroud is so unique that it almost enters a scientific faith factor all by itself. 317 00:37:30,020 --> 00:37:38,020 Many people believe that the resurrection caused a burst of radiation when the body was transformed to its new existence. 318 00:37:39,020 --> 00:37:44,020 This burst of radiation marked the Shroud in this incredible image. 319 00:37:46,020 --> 00:37:53,020 There simply is no way that we can duplicate this image even today, even now. 320 00:37:54,020 --> 00:37:56,020 And people have certainly tried. 321 00:37:57,020 --> 00:38:03,020 Investigative journalist Joe Nicoll created this pigment-on-cloth facsimile of the face on the Shroud. 322 00:38:04,020 --> 00:38:08,020 Nicoll's image is very similar in appearance to the Shroud of Turin. 323 00:38:09,020 --> 00:38:16,020 Under the computer analyzer, it does exhibit some, but not all, of the characteristics displayed by the Shroud image. 324 00:38:18,020 --> 00:38:21,020 This is the Joe Nicoll's painting. 325 00:38:22,020 --> 00:38:28,020 Note the height of the hair and the height of the forehead, the nose cheek. These are all quite at the same height. 326 00:38:29,020 --> 00:38:31,020 There's no proportioning or no shading. 327 00:38:32,020 --> 00:38:34,020 Here's the man of the Shroud. 328 00:38:35,020 --> 00:38:41,020 Notice particularly that the nose is sticking above the rest of the face. 329 00:38:42,020 --> 00:38:49,020 The proportions of the cheeks to mouth to chin area in respect to the nose are quite good. 330 00:38:50,020 --> 00:38:51,020 The forehead across the forehead. 331 00:38:52,020 --> 00:38:56,020 Notice how the hair actually stands up a little bit, but not too much. 332 00:38:57,020 --> 00:39:04,020 Bolstering Moran's work, believers say the fact that no brush strokes appear on the Shroud proves it is not a painting. 333 00:39:05,020 --> 00:39:09,020 Skeptics point out that Leonardo da Vinci's brush strokes were often invisible. 334 00:39:10,020 --> 00:39:15,020 Some maintain that the Shroud we know today was painted by Leonardo on commission by the Savoy family. 335 00:39:16,020 --> 00:39:22,020 In her diary, the last widow of the house of Savoy wrote that she believed the Shroud was not authentic. 336 00:39:26,020 --> 00:39:33,020 In an effort to resolve the centuries old controversy, the Vatican allowed samples to be cut from the outer edges of the Shroud in 1988. 337 00:39:34,020 --> 00:39:39,020 Each of three universities were provided with a tiny piece of linen for carbon dating. 338 00:39:43,020 --> 00:39:49,020 Dr. Paul Damon at the University of Arizona headed the carbon dating team in the United States. 339 00:39:50,020 --> 00:39:55,020 Their findings placed the Shroud's origin between 1290 and 1360 A.D. 340 00:39:57,020 --> 00:40:01,020 With less than five minutes, we could see that it could not possibly be first century. 341 00:40:02,020 --> 00:40:09,020 The difference between 14th century and first century is so great that you could see it within a few minutes in the first measurement. 342 00:40:10,020 --> 00:40:13,020 We made quite a few measurements, something like 16, but that was enough. 343 00:40:15,020 --> 00:40:24,020 The rest of us would say we have no disagreement with what they dated, but are you sure you dated the main body of the Shroud, 344 00:40:24,020 --> 00:40:27,020 or might you have dated a patch or a re-wave? 345 00:40:29,020 --> 00:40:36,020 My co-principal investigator, who is Irish from an Irish Catholic family, 346 00:40:37,020 --> 00:40:41,020 and tried to be quite blasé about the whole process, looked very dejected. 347 00:40:42,020 --> 00:40:43,020 And I said, Doug, what's wrong? 348 00:40:44,020 --> 00:40:47,020 And he said, I didn't think I'd be disappointed, but I'm terribly disappointed. 349 00:40:48,020 --> 00:40:52,020 The Vatican accepted the results of Paul Damon's carbon dating. 350 00:40:53,020 --> 00:40:58,020 At the same time, carbon dating tests done in Switzerland and England confirmed Damon's findings. 351 00:40:59,020 --> 00:41:06,020 In 1989, the Vatican issued a statement allowing that the Shroud was a suitable object for meditation and veneration, 352 00:41:07,020 --> 00:41:10,020 but the statement did not dispute the carbon testing results. 353 00:41:11,020 --> 00:41:19,020 On August 18, 1990, the Vatican agreed to accept proposals for a new route of scientific tests on the Shroud of Turin. 354 00:41:20,020 --> 00:41:25,020 The proposals could possibly include new carbon dating, but perhaps scientific analysis, 355 00:41:26,020 --> 00:41:30,020 no matter how fascinating or controversial, misses the point of the Shroud of Turin. 356 00:41:31,020 --> 00:41:34,020 For true believers, further testing will make little difference. 357 00:41:35,020 --> 00:41:39,020 For them, the Shroud has always been simply a matter of faith. 358 00:41:41,020 --> 00:41:46,020 Next, authorities need your help to solve the brutal murder of an elderly grandmother. 359 00:41:58,020 --> 00:42:05,020 The tranquil rolling hills of rural Orange County, Virginia are less than 70 miles but a world away from the streets of Washington, D.C. 360 00:42:06,020 --> 00:42:14,020 This peaceful landscape is an ideal setting for families looking to escape the crime and congestion of the nation's capital. 361 00:42:18,020 --> 00:42:23,020 The community of Burr Hill consists of little more than a post office and a few homes. 362 00:42:24,020 --> 00:42:29,020 For Ethel Kidd and her husband Gilbert, the township seemed the perfect refuge from the big city. 363 00:42:30,020 --> 00:42:35,020 They bought a plot of land in Burr Hill and in 1988 began building a retirement home. 364 00:42:39,020 --> 00:42:42,020 For Ethel Kidd, the move was a dream come true. 365 00:42:43,020 --> 00:42:49,020 Her children and grandchildren lived in the area in a 61 years of age, much of Ethel's life centered around her family. 366 00:42:51,020 --> 00:42:54,020 She was a good person. She was liked by everybody. 367 00:42:54,020 --> 00:43:05,020 She liked to cook. She liked to have cookouts and picnics and she just enjoyed life. 368 00:43:07,020 --> 00:43:12,020 Wednesday, April 12, 1989 brought the promise of an ordinary day in the country. 369 00:43:13,020 --> 00:43:17,020 The house was nearly complete and Ethel was spending most of her time in Burr Hill. 370 00:43:18,020 --> 00:43:22,020 That morning she visited her daughter who lived less than a mile away. 371 00:43:23,020 --> 00:43:27,020 Ethel returned home and was seen checking her mailbox shortly after 2 p.m. 372 00:43:28,020 --> 00:43:32,020 There was nothing to suggest to sinister events which were about to unfold. 373 00:43:34,020 --> 00:43:41,020 Thursday, the next morning, my wife called her mother about 7.30 and the after machine answered. 374 00:43:42,020 --> 00:43:47,020 She said, that's funny, mom. Must have left early. She's on her way here to have a cup of coffee. 375 00:43:50,020 --> 00:43:54,020 At 9.30 I rode by and I saw the car there. 376 00:43:55,020 --> 00:43:59,020 Something hit me that something was wrong if she didn't answer the phone. 377 00:43:59,020 --> 00:44:10,020 I saw this book and I saw that it was an atlas, a map. 378 00:44:11,020 --> 00:44:15,020 And I just picked it up and carried it with me and I thought maybe Ethel may have dropped it. 379 00:44:19,020 --> 00:44:22,020 When I opened the door, that's when my heart came up in my throat. 380 00:44:23,020 --> 00:44:26,020 That's when I knew something was wrong. 381 00:44:27,020 --> 00:44:31,020 It hit me that she would never leave the door unlocked. 382 00:44:32,020 --> 00:44:35,020 She always had the door locked even during the day. 383 00:44:43,020 --> 00:44:48,020 Ethel! Ethel, are you here? 384 00:44:49,020 --> 00:44:54,020 Not only was there no sign of Ethel, there was no sign of burglary or foul play. 385 00:44:55,020 --> 00:45:02,020 Everything in the house was eerily in place, as if Ethel had been there one moment and then simply vanished the next. 386 00:45:07,020 --> 00:45:11,020 With no other leads, authorities mobilized a large task force. 387 00:45:12,020 --> 00:45:19,020 Law enforcement officers fanned out from Ethel's home and acre by acre painstakingly searched the woods and fields. 388 00:45:20,020 --> 00:45:23,020 There was still no sign of Ethel Kidd. 389 00:45:28,020 --> 00:45:37,020 Eight days later, less than three miles from Ethel's home, a local hunter came across a shocking sight in the same area which had been thoroughly searched the previous week. 390 00:45:41,020 --> 00:46:00,020 It was a body of Ethel Kidd bound to a tree, an upright position facing a logging road less than 50 feet away. 391 00:46:01,020 --> 00:46:06,020 Investigators determined that Ethel had been strangled. 392 00:46:07,020 --> 00:46:13,020 They also found evidence of sexual assault and estimated that she had been dead for around seven days. 393 00:46:15,020 --> 00:46:22,020 This area had been searched by land and air. She was definitely not at that location earlier in the week. 394 00:46:23,020 --> 00:46:33,020 The killer is extremely brazen to bring a body back to the area where it was kidnapped from and place it in a position so as it would be found. 395 00:46:34,020 --> 00:46:43,020 Facing a road just off of a state road and just off of a logging road, it's even as if he may have been taunting the police. 396 00:46:43,020 --> 00:46:50,020 It seemed obvious that Ethel Kidd had been kept in storage after she was killed. 397 00:46:51,020 --> 00:46:54,020 Surprisingly, there were no signs of decomposition. 398 00:46:55,020 --> 00:47:04,020 The medical examiner stated that in his opinion, from the evidence that he found, there was no sign of a logging road. 399 00:47:04,020 --> 00:47:13,020 The authorities theorized that the body could have been kept in a refrigerated truck, an ice house or a walk-in freezer. 400 00:47:14,020 --> 00:47:20,020 Ethel Kidd's body was found in the area where she was killed. 401 00:47:21,020 --> 00:47:26,020 Ethel Kidd's body was found in the area where she was killed. 402 00:47:27,020 --> 00:47:34,020 The authorities theorized that the body could have been kept in a refrigerated truck, an ice house or a walk-in freezer. 403 00:47:36,020 --> 00:47:45,020 Other clues soon emerged. Ethel had been bound with a type of drape record used in hotels and hospitals but not available to the general public. 404 00:47:46,020 --> 00:47:49,020 Car upholstery fibers were recovered from Ethel's clothes. 405 00:47:50,020 --> 00:47:57,020 But the main focus of the investigation, centered on several items tucked inside the road atlas, found in Ethel's front yard. 406 00:47:58,020 --> 00:48:04,020 These two sheets of paper from a national motel chain contained sexually suggested messages. 407 00:48:05,020 --> 00:48:11,020 Investigators surmised that the notes had been used as flashcards to solicit sex along the interstate. 408 00:48:12,020 --> 00:48:17,020 The most chilling discovery was a handwritten list of seven items also found in the atlas. 409 00:48:17,020 --> 00:48:21,020 Police suspected that it was a meticulous blueprint for murder. 410 00:48:25,020 --> 00:48:30,020 Line 2, for instance, listed clothing and accessories which may have been used for disguise. 411 00:48:33,020 --> 00:48:37,020 Line 3 read ID ASAP, Paper Trip Book. 412 00:48:38,020 --> 00:48:44,020 The authorities were aware of a book entitled The Paper Trip, which details how a person can obtain a new identity. 413 00:48:47,020 --> 00:48:50,020 Item 4 simply read, Choose Location. 414 00:48:54,020 --> 00:49:02,020 Item 5 was perhaps the most baffling of all. It listed the abbreviations H, C, T, P and S, G. 415 00:49:05,020 --> 00:49:13,020 The best that we can come up with would be handcuffs, tape and either surgical gloves or stun gun. 416 00:49:17,020 --> 00:49:22,020 This individual is a methodical, very particular cunning individual. 417 00:49:23,020 --> 00:49:36,020 He is a loner, that he is a white male probably between 35 and 45 years old, and that he has not had successful relationships with females. 418 00:49:37,020 --> 00:49:44,020 We have to assume that this individual does traveling and stays in motels, 419 00:49:44,020 --> 00:49:50,020 which could be consistent with an interstate trucker or a salesperson. 420 00:49:55,020 --> 00:49:57,020 Ethel Kidd was extremely security conscious. 421 00:49:58,020 --> 00:50:03,020 Authorities theorize that the assailant may have devised a clever scheme which would not alarm her. 422 00:50:04,020 --> 00:50:08,020 Quite possibly, he used a road atlas to create the impression that he was lost. 423 00:50:15,020 --> 00:50:21,020 Hi, excuse me. I'm lost. Can you show me where polepepper is? 424 00:50:22,020 --> 00:50:27,020 This was a very cunning, devious, planned, calculated murder. 425 00:50:28,020 --> 00:50:40,020 Because of leaving clues, bringing the body back, just the way that he did everything in this case and hasn't been caught, yes, it's my opinion that he will kill again. 426 00:50:41,020 --> 00:50:46,020 Hopefully, if he gets put away for doing this, that it won't be done to anybody else. 427 00:50:47,020 --> 00:50:53,020 Because nobody deserves to be done like this. Nobody deserves to die like this. 428 00:51:10,020 --> 00:51:17,020 The End 429 00:51:26,020 --> 00:51:32,020 Join me next time. Perhaps you hold that crucial clue which could help solve a mystery. 430 00:51:40,020 --> 00:51:46,780 This besondator will make you self 431 00:51:52,020 --> 00:51:57,380 planet of the continent.
