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 --> 00:00:20,880
to see is not a news broadcast.

4
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:27,040
March 1990. NATO tracking stations in Belgium pick up a strange unidentified aircraft on

5
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:32,960
radar. The Belgian Air Force deploys two fighter jets to intercept the intruder, only to have

6
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:38,560
it dart out of range and disappear at supersonic speed. It is the most dramatic of thousands

7
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:45,760
of recent UFO sightings in Belgium. In the late 1960s, Rock Creek, Ohio was besieged

8
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:50,800
by a wild gang of street tufts. When Robert Hamrick took charge of the police force, he

9
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:56,000
was determined to run the gang out of town. Six months later, Hamrick was killed in a

10
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:02,080
suspicious car accident. Philip Breen was a successful businessman with a remarkable

11
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:08,640
knack for making money and for taking money. In 1990, he vanished after defrauding his employer

12
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:15,120
out of millions of dollars and leaving his unsuspecting wife to pay the debt.

13
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:20,720
Also a woman's search for her long lost mother is finally ended, thanks to our viewers. Join

14
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:31,440
me for their heartwarming reunion on Unsolved Mysteries.

15
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:26,400
Brussels, Belgium is known as the capital of capitals, an ancient city of charm and elegance.

16
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:33,600
It would seem unlikely that old world Brussels would be the focal point of a very contemporary

17
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:41,840
controversy. Since the fall of 1989, several thousand people from all walks of life have

18
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:48,800
reported that Belgium is being invaded from the skies. Basically what we saw was this big

19
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:57,120
triangle object with three bright white lightnings in the corners. And it was in mobile above the

20
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:04,640
motorway. In the middle was a flashing red light. It passed by approaching the roofs

21
00:03:04,640 --> 00:03:13,680
since it was flying so low. You could see three white lights which formed an equilateral triangle.

22
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:20,080
What exactly is it that thousands of people have been seeing in the night sky over Belgium?

23
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,280
These drawings were generated from the testimonial hundreds of eyewitnesses.

24
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,880
Almost without fail, they describe an immense triangular object with bright lights at the

25
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:39,200
corners and another light in the center. Then on July 11th, 1991, an extraordinary press conference

26
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:45,040
was held. High ranking members of the Belgian military briefed the media on a UFO which

27
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:50,560
Air Force jets had attempted to chase down and remarkably had recorded on their radar screens.

28
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:56,320
Tonight we will show you the evidence presented at that conference for the first time on American

29
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:03,680
television. UFO sightings here in the United States have traditionally been met with skepticism.

30
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:09,600
In most cases justified by government and military officials. The reports have elicited

31
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:14,960
either denials or in most cases a simple no comment. What you are about to see as a first,

32
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,760
this story was filmed with a complete cooperation of the Belgian Air Force and the Jean-Dame

33
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:27,520
Rie, a national law enforcement agency. Belgium lies on the southeast edge of the North Sea,

34
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,480
bordered by Germany, France, Luxembourg and the Netherlands.

35
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:39,120
The mystery of the Belgian UFOs began on the night of November 29th, 1989, just outside of the small

36
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,400
town of U-Pan, less than seven miles from the German border.

37
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:50,640
Jean-Dame's Heinrich Niko, an U-Bear von Montigny, won a routine patrol.

38
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:11,040
As we approach the crossroads at Neurop's road, our attention was drawn to an unusual sign.

39
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:21,040
We saw a field near the road that was all lit up. It was like lights on a huge football field.

40
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:27,440
We thought it was strange and we wanted to know what was causing those lights.

41
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,680
So we pulled over to the side of the road.

42
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:48,000
There was a huge triangular platform and underneath it, strong headlights.

43
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:55,440
And in the middle was this blinking, pulsating orange light. The whole thing was floating in the air.

44
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,960
Niko and von Montigny immediately call the dispatcher in U-Pan, Albert Kreuz.

45
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,080
Suddenly they told me they were seeing a strange object in the sky.

46
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,400
It made no noise.

47
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:23,600
We joked about it and said it might be sent a close trying to land.

48
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,880
Kreuz noted the unusual report in his log, but remained skeptical.

49
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:54,080
The gendarmes followed the unknown object as it soared across the Belgian countryside toward U-Pan.

50
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:06,960
We could see it clearly because the headlights were very strong. We could also see the flickering orange ball underneath.

51
00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:14,480
We were driving very slowly because it seemed like there was someone in that object

52
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:19,760
and that someone was trying to observe what was happening on earth.

53
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:30,880
Lois later, a strange light flashed across the window of Kreuz's office in U-Pan.

54
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:36,800
Often the distance I could see something bright, but I didn't know what it was.

55
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:43,680
Suddenly I saw something that looked like a laser beam, shoot out of the light and then come back to the light.

56
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:56,800
We continue to observe the object as it circled over the city of U-Pan.

57
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,800
It appeared to be heading toward the forest.

58
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:14,800
Gendarmes Nikol and his partner were mesmerized. They began to suspect that this visitor had some special purpose.

59
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:22,800
On each side of the object there was a kind of laser beam and a ball that was leaving the object

60
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:30,800
and coming back as if the ball were trying to measure something. So it was easy for us to keep track of it in the sky.

61
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:40,800
When Nikol next called into dispatch, Kreuz reported that he had contacted four local airports.

62
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,800
Each had reported no unusual activity in the skies.

63
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:52,800
For a full 30 minutes the Gendarmes watched in awe as the object hovered in the distance.

64
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,800
Then the remarkable episode took another unexpected turn.

65
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:06,800
All of a sudden it came out of nowhere. Another spacecraft. We were a little frightened.

66
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:14,800
The one we'd been following was still over there and now a second one was rising up into the sky.

67
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:22,800
At a given moment it tilted slightly. We could see again the shape of a triangle with bright headlights and one in the middle.

68
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:30,800
It was exactly like the first object. We could see some kind of dome on the top with two or three small windows and there was a light inside the object.

69
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,800
By the time we realized what it was, the object flew away.

70
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,800
The object was still in the sky.

71
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:50,800
Moments later whatever doubts dispatcher Kreuz still had evaporated.

72
00:09:50,800 --> 00:10:00,800
I see a floating. Through the open window I saw a strange machine floating about 500 feet away from me.

73
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,800
It looked like a large ship floating in the air.

74
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:12,800
It drifted in front of me for a few seconds then flew away in the direction of La Calamine.

75
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,800
It was a beautiful thing to see.

76
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:26,800
Six minutes later two other Gendarmes encountered a similar object in the small village of La Calamine, eight miles to the north.

77
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:37,800
We had heard our colleagues talking about this flying object.

78
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:46,800
In the beginning we thought it was some sort of joke, but then we saw something. It wasn't fun anymore.

79
00:10:47,800 --> 00:11:05,800
Both of us had a strange feeling. It was impossible to explain what the object was. We thought it was an American airplane or something.

80
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:15,800
We had no other explanation for what it might be, but it was real and it was above us.

81
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:30,800
Then another object was leaving the main object. It was a red light, proceeding and descending vertically from the object.

82
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:36,800
It turned to the right side and moved off behind the building.

83
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:43,800
According to Gendarmes Plimo and his colleague, the episode culminated with a stunning climax.

84
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:51,800
The craft seemed to transform into a single beam of light. Then it disappeared.

85
00:11:55,800 --> 00:12:01,800
All four of these extraordinary sightings occurred within 20 miles in one hour of each other.

86
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:08,800
That same day 11 other Gendarmes and more than 100 private citizens came forward with similar reports.

87
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:14,800
Suddenly, Belgium was buzzing with talk of UFOs.

88
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:21,800
That remarkable evening in 1989 was just the beginning of an incredible wave of sightings which continues to this day.

89
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:29,800
It may seem unbelievable, but when we return we'll present startling evidence of the first acknowledged military tracking of a UFO.

90
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:36,800
A video radar recording provided by the Belgian Air Force, which has never been seen before by the American public.

91
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:48,800
On November 29, 1989, Gendarmes and Belch reported sightings of an unidentified flying object.

92
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:56,800
Over the next few months, hundreds of witnesses would come forward, all describing a similar triangular object.

93
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:01,800
Then in April of 1990, this extraordinary photograph was taken.

94
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:06,800
It shows the same array of lights which was described by the eyewitnesses.

95
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:14,800
By using a computer to enhance the film's contrast, the triangular shape becomes clearly visible.

96
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,800
That remarkable image is currently being analyzed by scientists in Belgium.

97
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:26,800
It offered what many believe is the first photographic evidence that UFOs were frequenting the Belgian sky.

98
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:31,800
In the last two years, Belgian authorities have been deluged by thousands of sightings.

99
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:40,800
The difficult task of deciphering and coordinating the reports has been undertaken by a privately funded organization of scientists and citizens known as SOBEPS.

100
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:52,800
Working hand in hand with the Belgian military and the Gendarmes Ries, SOBEPS opened lines of communication and set up procedures anticipating future encounters.

101
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,800
They did not have to wait very long.

102
00:13:55,800 --> 00:14:01,800
In March of 1990, the next wave of Belgian UFO sightings began.

103
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:10,800
Captain Jacques Passant, the Gendarmes Ries, was called to a residence outside of Brussels when dinner guests reported a series of strange lights in the sky.

104
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,800
These points of light were very different than the other stars.

105
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:27,800
They were much bigger and much brighter and not the color of stars.

106
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:32,800
The main colors were reddish or yellow and the others were green.

107
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,800
Later, they began to travel short distances in an erratic manner.

108
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:48,800
Thirty miles away at a NATO tracking station, radar had detected an unknown object at the exact location the dinner guests had reported seeing the lights.

109
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:55,800
It showed up as a small circle with a tail in the lower left quadrant of the radar screen.

110
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:08,800
We phoned two other civilian and military radar sites like Zemmelsack, Burton, Saint-Hubert and they had precisely the same echo at the same place.

111
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:16,800
We were unable to identify this echo as being either enemy, either friendly.

112
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,800
It was not very clear for us that it was an aircraft.

113
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:27,800
With confirmations from four different radar stations, the Belgian Air Force was now on alert.

114
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,800
Something very unusual was in the skies over Belgium.

115
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:47,800
Two F-16s from the Belgian Air Force were immediately deployed, their mission to locate and identify the object.

116
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:55,800
The pilots gave chase and soon locked onto the object with onboard radar.

117
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,800
Delta 5-7, this is to confirm that we now have a lock on.

118
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:05,800
But after just five seconds, the object bolded out of range at a blistering speed.

119
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:15,800
We measured some exceptional accelerations which cannot be related to conventional aircraft. That is clear.

120
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:23,800
For the next hour, the pilots reported that the object seemed to be playing a high-tech game of cat and mouse.

121
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:28,800
Each time they achieved lock on, the object darted out of range.

122
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:37,800
The pilots confirmed that it was impossible for them to accelerate as quick as the target was doing.

123
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:44,800
An examination of the onboard radar footage astonished the military.

124
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,800
This is a portion of the actual footage recorded that evening.

125
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,800
The UFO appears in the center of the screen as a diamond shape.

126
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:59,800
The figure in the upper right hand corner indicates the altitude of the object in thousands of feet.

127
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:04,800
When the pilots first locked on, the object was at 7,000 feet.

128
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,800
But within seconds, it had climbed at 10,000 feet.

129
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:14,800
Then incredibly, the object plummeted to just 500 feet in a span of only five seconds.

130
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:24,800
At the same time, the object accelerated to 990 knots, more than 1,000 miles per hour, or one and a half times the speed of sound.

131
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:31,800
This fantastic combination of acceleration and descent would have been fatal to a human pilot.

132
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,800
And there is yet one additional oddity.

133
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:45,800
Even though the craft exceeded the speed of sound, remarkably no one on the ground ever reported hearing a sonic boom.

134
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:55,800
The data done at all these performances which were registered during the lock on of the radar,

135
00:17:55,800 --> 00:18:01,800
it was totally outside of the normal performance envelope of any airplane.

136
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:07,800
Despite the fact that the UFOs have been observed by thousands of eyewitnesses,

137
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,800
despite the fact that they have been recorded on military radar,

138
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:17,800
and despite the fact that one unknown object has easily evaded sophisticated high-tech fighter jets,

139
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:23,800
skeptics continue to dismiss the sightings as nothing more than mass UFO hysteria.

140
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:30,800
They believe that the radar reports can be attributed to false echoes or changes in atmospheric conditions.

141
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,800
Some people don't believe us and the things we have seen.

142
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,800
Well, they are free not to believe us. It doesn't matter to me.

143
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,800
But I have seen something and what else can I say?

144
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,800
It was not some invention of my mind. I saw it and it was very real.

145
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,800
And it happened just as I have said.

146
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:56,800
I got out of the car and however Ingolverus was a big black triangle.

147
00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:01,800
It was very dark. The triangle had a large light on top of it and the light circled around

148
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,800
while the triangle remained suspended in the air.

149
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:13,800
There have been thousands of observations in Belgium and I think it's our job to try to find out

150
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:22,800
if there is really something in the air where it comes from, what the origin is and what the intentions are.

151
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:28,800
Indeed, there is something going on in Belgium which is beyond our control.

152
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,800
There is one curious fact which bears mentioning.

153
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:41,800
Despite thousands of sightings in Belgium, there have been just a handful of UFOs reported in the neighboring countries of France,

154
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:43,800
Germany and the Netherlands.

155
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:48,800
For skeptics this is additional proof that the sightings are nothing more than fantasy.

156
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:53,800
However, some people speculate that the objects may be attracted to Belgium's highway system

157
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:58,800
which is so brightly lit at night that it was visible even to the astronauts on the moon.

158
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:18,800
A September 26, 1991, an emotional, joyous reunion took place in Temple Hills, Maryland.

159
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:28,800
Thanks to our viewers, Mary Maxwell and Carla Downing came together as mother and daughter for the first time.

160
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,800
Grandma, the girls are here. I got my homework done in my room, nothing.

161
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:35,800
Good, good.

162
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,800
It all began in 1965 when Carla was 16 years old.

163
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:44,800
Shortly after her mother's death, she met a mysterious woman in her grandparents' house.

164
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:45,800
Thank you.

165
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:46,800
You're welcome here.

166
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:47,800
Carla.

167
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,800
This is Mary. Mary was a friend of your mom's in high school.

168
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,800
Hi. You look fair for Maya.

169
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:55,800
I saw you when I was a little girl.

170
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,800
At the time, Carla had no idea who the woman really was.

171
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,800
Carla Downing had grown up in a happy close-knit family.

172
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:10,800
But shortly after her brother was born, she began to feel that she somehow did not fit in.

173
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:20,800
The whole time I was growing up, I always knew that there was just something not right, mainly because of the difference between my brother and I.

174
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:29,800
He had blue eyes and blonde hair, and it was curly, and I had straight, dark hair, dark eyes, olive complexion.

175
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:35,800
It was just obvious to me even that we just weren't alike.

176
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,800
Honey, I've got something in the truck to the car.

177
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:44,800
Not until her father's death in 1990 did Carla's tangled family history finally begin to unravel.

178
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,800
This belonged to your dad, and he wanted you to have it.

179
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:54,800
In her father's briefcase, she would come across documents which unveiled a startling family secret.

180
00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:00,800
The father and mother who raised her were not her natural parents.

181
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:07,800
Carla learned that in 1948, her mother, Mildred, met a recent immigrant from Belgium named Mary.

182
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:13,800
Mary was all alone and pregnant. She knew that she would be unable to care for her baby.

183
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,800
The two women concocted a scheme to switch ID cards in the hospital.

184
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,800
What's her name?

185
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,800
Her name is Mildred Graham.

186
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,800
Mildred?

187
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:31,800
In doing so, Mildred would be listed on the birth certificate as Carla's mother.

188
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:38,800
I just have this need to find Mary. I want to be in the same room with someone I resemble.

189
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:45,800
I want my mother. I want somebody that I've been looking for for a long time.

190
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,800
On the night of our broadcast, Carla Downing's prayers are finally answered.

191
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:56,800
Her natural mother, Mary Maxwell, was still very much alive and very anxious to see her daughter.

192
00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:01,800
Carla was also overjoyed to discover she had two half sisters.

193
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:11,800
Eight days later, Carla traveled from her home in Tennessee to Maryland, where she was finally reunited with her mother.

194
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:29,800
You know, I see her come. I knew it was her. I couldn't believe it.

195
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,800
And all I could say was, Carla, who come?

196
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:37,800
And I ran out the door and she almost fell out the car, I think.

197
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:42,800
And we couldn't do nothing else but hold each other and cry.

198
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:49,800
When I saw her for the first time, I just can't describe that feeling.

199
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:54,800
It's a poem at last. I can breathe again.

200
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,800
It's just the happiest moment of my whole life, you know.

201
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,800
Just the happiest moment of my whole life.

202
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:09,800
This is your grandfather and your grandmother, and this is your grandfather and grandmother when they got married.

203
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:15,800
It's like a miracle. I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe it for the longest time.

204
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:23,800
I says, this is not happening to us. It only happens to other people that they find somebody they're looking for, not us, but yet it happened to us.

205
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:33,800
When I found out that my mom was alive and healthy and okay, that was just the best news in the world.

206
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:44,800
But then the extra bonus was, I have two sisters and a nephew, so it's a happy ending. It's a fairytale come true.

207
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:58,800
Next, a small town cop who stood up to a gang of thugs harassing his community and then died under unusual circumstances.

208
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:19,800
In the late 1960s, a group of young men began terrorizing tiny Rock Creek, Ohio.

209
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:25,800
Once quiet and peaceful, Rock Creek became a community held hostage by fear.

210
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,800
They were involved in fights. They were involved in threats.

211
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:39,800
They pretty much had the entire village under their thumb when they spoke, the village pretty much listened.

212
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:47,800
At the time, the town relied on the Ashda Bula County Sheriff's Department for Protection,

213
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:53,800
but with limited resources, the department seemed unable to stem the crime wave and gulfing Rock Creek.

214
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:59,800
The townspeople decided to fight back. They organized their own police department.

215
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:10,800
In July 1969, Robert Hamrick became the third man in less than six months to take charge of Rock Creek's police department.

216
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:16,800
His predecessors both left after allegedly receiving threats from members of the Rock Creek gang,

217
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,800
but Robert Hamrick was confident that he could clean up the town.

218
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,800
Congratulations. You're on the force.

219
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:24,800
Well, come on, give him a kiss.

220
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:30,800
He tried to do the best job that he knew how to do. He wanted it to be a nice friendly town,

221
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:39,800
and he wanted, you know, to get this gang off the streets so that people wouldn't have to be afraid of him.

222
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:46,800
Almost immediately, Chief Hamrick and his family became the targets of a systematic campaign of harassment.

223
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,800
They just did anything that they could to aggravate him when they knew he was home.

224
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,800
And, you know, he would get fed up, take off out there after him,

225
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,800
and then at least it would quiet down there by the house.

226
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:16,800
Five months after he was sworn in, Chief Hamrick investigated an abandoned building on the edge of town.

227
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,800
Inside, he found an expensive sports car.

228
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:25,800
A check of the license plate revealed that the car was stolen.

229
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,800
We come across it, found it.

230
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,800
Fingerprinted it.

231
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,800
Fingerprinted it, and we bugged the building because we didn't know who was there.

232
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:42,800
And we put a bug in the building, put a radio in our car, and just drove around and listened until the guys come back.

233
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:47,800
Bob was hiding in the office, and when they set up, we jumped down and busted him.

234
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:49,800
Freeze! Hands in the air! Come on!

235
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,800
Come on, come on!

236
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:58,800
The suspects were believed to be members of the Rock Creek Gang. They were arrested and released on bail.

237
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:06,800
Shortly after these guys was arrested for the stolen car is when the threats came in on the telephone.

238
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:12,800
And I don't really know how many threats came in because if he was home, most of the time he answered the phone.

239
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,800
But this one day, I was in the kitchen and the phone rang.

240
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,800
Hello?

241
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,800
It was a man on the other end, and he said,

242
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:33,800
tell your husband to leave things alone and get him out of town, or he's going to be hurt, and he's going to be hurt bad.

243
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:48,800
8-5 to 5-28.

244
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,800
One month later, on March 10, 1970, during a routine patrol,

245
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:58,800
Chief Hamrick notified the sheriff's dispatcher that he was in pursuit of a car heading west out of town.

246
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,800
An hour and a half passed with no further radio contact.

247
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:17,800
Finally at around 3 a.m., the dispatcher requested the sheriff's deputies try and locate the missing chief.

248
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:23,800
He had high-speed chase going west on Callender Road from Route 45.

249
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:33,800
Four hours later, Sheriff's Deputy Denny Chapman discovered Hamrick's patrol car on an isolated road just outside of town.

250
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,800
The car had collided with a tree.

251
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,800
Chief! Chief!

252
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,800
Hamrick was semi-conscious and barely alive.

253
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:49,800
Hey, 11, this is 5-28. Send out a signal on 29. Chief Hamrick is hurt real bad.

254
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:56,800
He had head and facial injuries, probably the right side and left side both.

255
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,800
I was surprised to find him moving when I got there, you know,

256
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:08,800
and then my next thing was to get him to keep him from moving so that he wouldn't do further injury to himself.

257
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,800
From the onset, the investigating deputies suspected foul play.

258
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,800
They found blood covering the back seat.

259
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,800
Hamrick's service revolver and night stick were missing.

260
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:24,800
In fact, nothing at the scene seemed consistent with an accident.

261
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:28,800
The ignition's been turned off, so's the lights.

262
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,800
The patrol car's ignition and light switches were in the off position.

263
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:38,800
But why would Hamrick, who was barely conscious, turn off the engine and headlights but not radio for help?

264
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,800
Robert Hamrick never regained consciousness.

265
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,800
Ten days later, he died.

266
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:54,800
Despite compelling evidence to the contrary, Hamrick's death was officially ruled an accident.

267
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:59,800
I didn't believe then, and I still don't believe to this day,

268
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:04,800
that all the injuries that Bob received was a result of that car accident.

269
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:13,800
I believe my husband's death was not a car accident and that he was beaten to death and that it was covered up.

270
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:21,800
There's so many questions and there is evidence and people just have ignored that evidence

271
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:27,800
and they've ignored the circumstances at the time and what was going on in the village at the time.

272
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:34,800
Six hours after the crash, the car that Hamrick had been chasing was found at a local gas station.

273
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,800
It was splattered with mud and had a damaged tire.

274
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,800
The owner stated that she had taken the car in for repairs a previous day.

275
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:42,800
Since yesterday?

276
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:46,800
One of the station employees was known to be a member of the Rock Creek gang.

277
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:48,800
You're driving this car last night?

278
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:49,800
No.

279
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:55,800
The owner told us when she dropped the car off, the car was in very clean condition.

280
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,800
There was no flat tires on the car when she dropped it off.

281
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:04,800
In fact, I think she was a little surprised that they had to keep it overnight.

282
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:14,800
Knowing that he was from hung around the Rock Creek area and I had trouble with him in the past from answering calls.

283
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:19,800
Down in the Rock Creek area, I felt that he was directly involved.

284
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:21,800
I would say early 20s.

285
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:27,800
One local woman claims that she overheard members of the Rock Creek gang bragging that they had murdered Chief Hamrick.

286
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:35,800
Then they were saying, we killed us a cop and we got away with it.

287
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:48,800
And they proceeded to tell how they killed him, how they beat him in the head.

288
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,800
They had it all planned.

289
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,800
They set him up, getting down here on this dirt road.

290
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,800
And they took his Billy Club and they started hitting him with it.

291
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,800
Get him out of the way!

292
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:09,800
Get him out of the way!

293
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,800
Get him out of the way!

294
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:13,800
Give me that!

295
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,800
Give me that!

296
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:17,800
Give me that!

297
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,800
Get him out of the way!

298
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:21,800
Get him in the car, man.

299
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:23,800
Get him out of the way!

300
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,800
You can't do too much, Colburn!

301
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:27,800
Too much!

302
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:32,800
They put him back into his car and then they left him there.

303
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,800
Left him to die.

304
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,800
They said, we'll never get caught.

305
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,800
And I knew in my heart, I knew they were right.

306
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:50,800
They would never get caught.

307
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,800
They were above the law.

308
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:56,800
I've been checking into it for 20 years.

309
00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:59,800
Constantly.

310
00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:03,800
If somebody actually hurt that man, more than likely I know them.

311
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:05,800
Probably call them a friend.

312
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:10,800
And I would hate to think that somebody that I knew

313
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,800
and somebody that I called a friend

314
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,800
would leave a man in the condition he was in.

315
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,800
There's no way my father's death could have been an accident.

316
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:24,800
Because I have read the files

317
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:29,800
and there's enough material in there to point to other things.

318
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,800
And I just can't believe it.

319
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,800
I just hope that we find out what actually happened.

320
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:44,800
And if by some miracle we find out who's responsible,

321
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,800
that they pay for what they did.

322
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:49,800
They took my father from me

323
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,800
and they've lived a life thinking that they got away with it

324
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:55,800
for over 20 years now.

325
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:59,800
And I think it's time that they got something taken from them.

326
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:05,800
The case of Robert Hamrick has been officially closed

327
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,800
for more than 20 years.

328
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,800
However, authorities are prepared to reopen the investigation

329
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,800
should any new evidence come to light.

330
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,800
Next, authorities need your help to find a businessman

331
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,800
accused of embezzling millions of dollars.

332
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:27,800
Every year in the United States,

333
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,800
thousands of adult men and women seemingly vanish without a trace.

334
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,800
Sadly, in many cases, a missing person is a victim of foul play.

335
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,800
However, there are those who engineer their own disappearances,

336
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,800
leaving family and friends to wonder not only where they are,

337
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,800
but what happened?

338
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,800
Philip and Kathleen Brine were married in Detroit, Michigan

339
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:51,800
in the spring of 19th century.

340
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,800
Philip was a dashing, high-powered corporate executive,

341
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,800
Kathleen, a young, successful businesswoman.

342
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:01,800
Together they enjoy the good life,

343
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,800
complete with a vast array of expensive grown-up toys

344
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,800
apparently paid for by Philip's investments in the stock market.

345
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,800
For Kathleen, the marriage was a dream come true.

346
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:14,800
Do I take the wheel?

347
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,800
I don't want to, it's bad.

348
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,800
Oh no! Oh no!

349
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,800
There were a lot of things that were really great about him.

350
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:25,800
I think it was his sense of humor was one thing that I thought was really great.

351
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,800
And we were crazy about each other.

352
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,800
I mean, I really loved this person,

353
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,800
and I believe that he really loved me,

354
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,800
and I believe that I could trust him.

355
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:35,800
Great.

356
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:39,800
Philip was the president of a highly successful Detroit mortgage company.

357
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,800
His position gave him the authority to purchase mortgages

358
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:44,800
for the company to service.

359
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:46,800
I can't wait to call in all these people.

360
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,800
He's going to be very excited about this.

361
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:52,800
By the way, we hear anything back on that commercial property on 15 Mile?

362
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,800
He always came across kind of as a happy-go-lucky guy,

363
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:58,800
a wizard in the stock market.

364
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,800
I mean, he was always coming and saying,

365
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,800
oh, I made a great killing today.

366
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,800
I made a hundred grand. I made this.

367
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,800
I bought these options. I sold these options.

368
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:10,800
He just thought this person had a certain knack that nobody else had.

369
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,800
Hey, Al. Yeah, Phil Breen.

370
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,800
I got some good news.

371
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:17,800
Philip Breen was also generous.

372
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:19,800
When a friend's business hit hard times,

373
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,800
Philip loaned him $100,000.

374
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:24,800
No problem. You can pick up a check tomorrow.

375
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,800
He wrote me a check with no questions asked.

376
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:31,800
He never came off as the big wheeler dealer.

377
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:36,800
He came off as a kind and good person

378
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,800
and wanting to share what he had with other people.

379
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:41,800
He certainly shared it with me.

380
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:44,800
In the spring of 1989,

381
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:49,800
Breen purchased the Orlando Juice baseball team for $700,000.

382
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:51,800
The team was one of eight franchises

383
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:55,800
in the newly formed Senior Professional Baseball Association,

384
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,800
a league-builder-all-retired big-name ball players.

385
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,800
The venture was risky,

386
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:03,800
and Breen's work at the mortgage company

387
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,800
soon took a backseat to his role as a team owner.

388
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,800
It seemed like it was something that he really wanted to do.

389
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,800
It was important to him,

390
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,800
but in a lot of ways, I didn't like it

391
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,800
because I thought that it put an awful lot of pressure on him,

392
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,800
and it seemed like he was just, at that point,

393
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:24,800
running himself into the ground.

394
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,800
You know, it didn't make sense to me.

395
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:29,800
I don't see what your problem is with this.

396
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:31,800
Why don't we just get out of the house for a while?

397
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,800
I'm going to get out of here.

398
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:35,800
I've got some calls I've got to make.

399
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:37,800
Phil, this is our vacation. You haven't done one thing with me.

400
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:39,800
What are you going to do? Why don't you go do it?

401
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,800
By year's end, the enterprise seemed doomed to failure.

402
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,800
Philip's investment had ballooned to more than $2 million

403
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:47,800
and he'd begun drinking heavily.

404
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:49,800
Hey, what are you doing, Phil?

405
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:51,800
Yeah, great.

406
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:53,800
During a two-week vacation at their Florida condo,

407
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,800
Kathleen became concerned about her husband's mental state.

408
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:58,800
I said I'd cover it. What?

409
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:00,800
I said I'd cover it.

410
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:03,800
I said I'd cover it. What?

411
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,800
Well, I'll send the cash. Oh, alright.

412
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,800
I noticed I changed in him.

413
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:12,800
He seemed to be spending more money.

414
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,800
It just seemed like as time went on,

415
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,800
the money was going more and more to his head.

416
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,800
Uh-huh.

417
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:24,800
So you have no lien on this property.

418
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,800
Back in Detroit, the mortgage company where Philip was employed

419
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:30,800
made an unsettling discovery.

420
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:32,800
What about the one on Guilford?

421
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:34,800
They'd been servicing loans at breanard purchase

422
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:36,800
from companies that simply did not exist.

423
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:40,800
The company suspected Philip Brink of embezzlement.

424
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,800
And the one on Walnut?

425
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:44,800
It was just mind-boggling.

426
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,800
I mean, something like that could happen.

427
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:48,800
You know, the things that ran through your mind is,

428
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:50,800
my God, you know, we trusted this guy.

429
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,800
How could he do this to us?

430
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:57,800
On Friday, January 5th, 1990,

431
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,800
Philip and Kathleen returned from their Florida vacation

432
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:02,800
to their home in Detroit.

433
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,800
Hello?

434
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:06,800
Yes. Alright. Alright. Just a minute.

435
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,800
Just a minute.

436
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,800
Phil is in the office.

437
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,800
Alright. I'll take it in here.

438
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:27,800
Something seemed to be not right, and I didn't know what.

439
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,800
And so I took his briefcase into him in the room

440
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:33,800
where he was on the phone.

441
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:37,800
And that room was a complete disaster area.

442
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,800
He had records piled all over the floor.

443
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:43,800
Papers were strewn all over.

444
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,800
I...

445
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:47,800
Well, I have the signatures right here.

446
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:48,800
I work with these people.

447
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:50,800
He looked very upset.

448
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,800
I mean, he had a very funny expression on his face

449
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,800
and it frightened me to see him freaked out like that.

450
00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:58,800
Look at that.

451
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,800
Well, how do you think I feel? I mean, my phone's a ring.

452
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:06,800
That evening, he revealed to me that he had somehow been

453
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:12,800
the victim of people selling phony mortgages.

454
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,800
He said to us,

455
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,800
don't worry.

456
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:17,800
I'll get these guys.

457
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,800
I know they can explain it.

458
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:21,800
There's not a problem.

459
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,800
You know, it kept reassuring us there's not a problem.

460
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,800
I'll get ahold of them over the weekend.

461
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:30,800
I kept saying, shouldn't we be contacting an attorney?

462
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,800
Should you be talking to a lawyer?

463
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,800
What do we need to do?

464
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,800
I was just confused.

465
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:40,800
I didn't know what to do.

466
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:41,800
I was afraid.

467
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,800
I was afraid for him.

468
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:45,800
I was afraid for us.

469
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:50,800
By Monday morning, Philip had convinced Kathleen

470
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,800
that he could straighten everything out.

471
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,800
He left for work at around 8 o'clock,

472
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,800
explaining he had an early meeting.

473
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:01,800
Philip Breen never arrived at his office.

474
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,800
That night, Kathleen's hopes that Philip would return were dashed

475
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,800
when she discovered he had taken some of his clothes and luggage.

476
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:21,800
I was really upset.

477
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:27,800
The idea that he would have actually gone just was

478
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:29,800
incomprehensible to me.

479
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,800
I couldn't believe it.

480
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,800
So I did some of my own investigation.

481
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:35,800
And I found out.

482
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:37,800
An investigation by the FBI revealed the magnitude

483
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:39,800
of Philip Breen's embezzlement scheme.

484
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:41,800
In less than two years,

485
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,800
he had created at least 99 fictitious loans,

486
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,800
netting him more than $10 million.

487
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,800
That the more loans that you have, the more I respect you.

488
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,800
Breen allegedly used the money to support his extravagant lifestyle.

489
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:55,800
I see they're pretty substantial.

490
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:58,800
The FBI also discovered that 12 years earlier,

491
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:05,800
Philip Breen had been convicted for fraud and embezzlement in Florida.

492
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,800
There was just this whole person that I didn't know.

493
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:13,800
I think that I was really just numb with shock.

494
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:21,800
And then I questioned my own sanity, my own intelligence.

495
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,800
How could you not know?

496
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:25,800
And why didn't I know?

497
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:31,800
I mean, I found myself questioning absolutely everything.

498
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:35,800
On the advice of her attorney, Kathleen filed for divorce.

499
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,800
It was too late.

500
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:42,800
The courts held her legally responsible for Philip's debts.

501
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:46,800
She was forced to sell nearly everything she and Philip owned.

502
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:53,800
Their cars, boats, Florida condo, and Detroit home.

503
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:56,800
For Kathleen Breen, the dream was not just over.

504
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:58,800
It had been shattered.

505
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:02,800
I felt like I was married to a monster from outer space.

506
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,800
And it almost just sickens me in a way.

507
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:10,800
Like, just haunted by it.

508
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:14,800
And still even now, it's just very difficult to believe

509
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,800
that someone that you think that you know would be capable

510
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:21,800
of just picking up and just leaving like that.

511
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:23,800
I think that's the most important thing.

512
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:26,800
Excuse me.

513
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:30,800
Why does it have to go wrong?

514
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:32,800
Now, I can see it over here.

515
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,800
I don't know if I'm taking the situation out

516
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:37,800
well because it doesn't work.

517
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:39,800
It's just weird what happened to it.

518
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:46,800
кажд view possible?

519
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:48,800
I'll make you see it, Johnny.

520
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,800
If you got a new version of this,

521
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,200
textbook picture perfect marine.

522
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,120
Then he was found shot to death in his own bed.

523
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,720
When police ruled it a suicide, Digmund's Paris

524
00:44:58,720 --> 00:45:01,400
began their own investigation and sent out

525
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:05,600
to prove that their son had been murdered.

526
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:07,480
Also thanks to our viewers, a man

527
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,560
wanted for kidnapping and attempted murder

528
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:11,680
is now in custody.

529
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:12,880
Join me next time.

530
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,480
Perhaps you may be able to help solve a mystery.
