Perhaps you hold the key. Perhaps you may be able to help solve a mystery. 17 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:57,000 The Sound 18 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:15,000 There is no mistaking the sound. The quiet thunder of bees. 19 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:22,000 Unless you're in the honey business, you undoubtedly avoid any person-to-person contact with bees. 20 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:29,000 However, to some people, honey bees are miniature flying drugstores, dispensaries of miracle cures. 21 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:34,000 You're about to meet two women who say they've experienced the miracle. 22 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:41,000 Both have multiple sclerosis, or MS, a crippling disease of the nervous system whose complications can be fatal. 23 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:47,000 Both have reversed the course of MS through a controversial treatment known as bee venom therapy, 24 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,000 literally stinging themselves with honey bees. 25 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,000 Kelly Ames was in high school when MS first crept into her life. 26 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,000 By the time Kelly was 22, her symptoms became impossible to ignore. 27 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,000 One day I was in work and I was walking down a flight of stairs. 28 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:14,000 There must have been like 12 stairs where I just lost the feeling in my feet, like all of a sudden, 29 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:19,000 and I fell down a flight of stairs and the women in my office were like, 30 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,000 wow, you know, I explained to them that my feet sometimes get numb. 31 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,000 Medical tests revealed a cruel truth. Kelly had MS, 32 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,000 the unforgiving disease first robbed her of the ability to walk alone. 33 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,000 Before long, MS was attacking her eyes. 34 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,000 It's like it took over my life. 35 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:50,000 Within that week, I lost vision in my left eye and I had no control over my muscles. 36 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,000 It was just very devastating. 37 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:57,000 I hated to depend on other people, but at times I needed other people to help me. 38 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,000 Kelly's doctor put her on steroids. 39 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,000 These potent drugs contemporarily relieve the symptoms of MS, 40 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,000 but no drug can stop its advance. 41 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,000 Having the steroid dripped into my arm, I would sit there for an hour and a half, 42 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,000 looking at other MS people coming in in the whale chairs 43 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,000 and wondering if that's going to be me someday, you know, in that whale chair. 44 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:25,000 Then Kelly met a woman who literally walked away from her wheelchair 45 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:29,000 after systematically stinging herself with honeybees. 46 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,000 For Kelly Ames, it was the last ray of hope. 47 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,000 Kelly's father brought her to a local beekeeper who'd been helping MS patients for years. 48 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,000 He was happy to donate the honeybees. The rest would be up to Kelly. 49 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,000 He told me that he didn't want to be bothered by me if I wasn't serious about it. 50 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:55,000 He says, you have to do this for six months straight every other day faithfully. 51 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:59,000 Increase it by two every other day until you get to 20. 52 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,000 And he scared me when he said that, 53 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,000 because I realized that I really had to take the responsibility of sticking to this. 54 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,000 And I did. 55 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,000 You all set, honey? 56 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,000 Kelly and her boyfriend set up a morning routine. 57 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:18,000 He placed the bees at specific spots on Kelly's body. 58 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,000 Spots from nerves running to the damaged areas were most accessible. 59 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,000 For Kelly's failing eyesight, that was behind the ear. 60 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:35,000 Bees were also positioned on Kelly's lower back to treat the weakness in her legs. 61 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:41,000 The bees were left in place for as long as 15 minutes to allow all their venom to penetrate Kelly's skin. 62 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,000 Finish getting dressed and I'll come back, OK? 63 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,000 OK. 64 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:50,000 MS had so ravished Kelly's nervous system that she stung herself several hundred times 65 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,000 before actually feeling the full wallop of a sting. 66 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:58,000 I could actually feel what a bee sting felt like and it hurt. 67 00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,000 It really hurt. 68 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,000 I was screaming. 69 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,000 I had my head in my pillow and I was screaming. 70 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,000 And I was screaming because I was happy because I could feel again. 71 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:13,000 I knew that this therapy was starting to work because within a week, 72 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,000 my eyesight started to slowly come back. 73 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,000 I didn't depend on my cane as much. 74 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:24,000 And right then and there, I just knew finally this was kicking in and it was working for me. 75 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:34,000 I know Kelly Ames and her situation is a perfect example of how bee venom therapy helps MS. 76 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,000 She was not doing well and when she started her bee venom therapy, 77 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:43,000 it had a clear difference in her symptoms and her outlook on life. 78 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,000 Do you think you're numb enough in that area? 79 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,000 OK. 80 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:52,000 OK, what I'm going to do is grab the bee by the upper part of the body. 81 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:58,000 Today, Kelly Ames teaches bee venom therapy to others in the grip of multiple sclerosis. 82 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:02,000 While some doctors dismiss the therapy as little better than voodoo, 83 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,000 Kelly's remarkable recovery is hardly unique. 84 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:12,000 When I decided to do bee venom therapy, we kind of kept it a little hush-hush 85 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,000 because I didn't know what other people's reactions would be. 86 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:22,000 I knew what the reactions from my doctors were, so I figured, you know, well, we'll keep it a little quiet. 87 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:33,000 Maureen Norton began to experience the symptoms of MS shortly after the birth of her second child. 88 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:40,000 She was seized by a tingling pins and needles sensation in her legs that made walking nearly impossible. 89 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,000 Mommy, will you play with me? 90 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,000 That was very scary. 91 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:51,000 I just kind of pictured myself in a wheelchair holding my little baby and my son along the side. 92 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:56,000 I didn't want that. 93 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,000 But that was right where Maureen was headed. 94 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,000 Then she started bee venom therapy. 95 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:08,000 I was always afraid of bees and about being stunned. 96 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:13,000 But I just felt that this was my only answer. 97 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:18,000 A beekeeper who lived nearby agreed to teach Maureen the fine art of bee wrangling, 98 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:24,000 how to grab its bristly neck and coerce it to jab its stinger at precisely the right location. 99 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,000 I was told to sting it right on the top of your foot right here, OK? 100 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:33,000 By the time Maureen got started with bee stings, MS had numbed her feet so thoroughly 101 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,000 she could hardly sense they were there. 102 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,000 To the touch, Maureen's feet were icy blue cold. 103 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,000 OK, I think that's long enough. 104 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,000 Within minutes, my foot was warm. 105 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:58,000 You could feel the venom going through and the blood felt like there was life in my foot again. 106 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,000 It was just an incredible feeling. 107 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,000 I knew right from that moment that something good was happening 108 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,000 and I felt that this was going to help me. 109 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,000 How much did it help? 110 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:17,000 This photograph of Maureen and her son was taken six weeks after she began the sting therapy. 111 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:22,000 Maureen has just crossed the finish line in a seven mile MS walkathon. 112 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,000 Three weeks later, Maureen was prancing across the dance floor 113 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000 at a party celebrating her spectacular recovery. 114 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,000 Today I'm a very active person. 115 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,000 I haven't had any attacks. 116 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:43,000 Sometimes, depending if the stress gets too much in my life, 117 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:48,000 that I'll get some pins and needles failings in my hands or in my right knee, 118 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:54,000 I immediately just take my bees out and I'll give myself a couple of stings and the failing's gone. 119 00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,000 Should we prize bees for their sting as well as their honey? 120 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,000 Mainstream science has hardly begun to address the question, 121 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:09,000 though some doctors believe bee venom therapy is far too promising to be ignored. 122 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,000 At first it may be easy to dismiss bee venom therapy. 123 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,000 The fact is it sounds a little kooky. 124 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:25,000 However, in studying about bee venom, there are certain substances which make sense in multiple sclerosis therapy. 125 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:31,000 We know that the immune system is involved and of course the neurologic system is involved. 126 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:38,000 Therefore, bee venom which has components which affect both the immune system and neurologic system 127 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:45,000 is a natural substance which seems to have some effects in MS. 128 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:53,000 Skeptics might argue that improvements reported by bee advocates are in reality the periodic remissions typical of MS. 129 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:59,000 But Kelly Ames is convinced her progress is a direct result of bee venom therapy. 130 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:06,000 I stopped doing the therapy for a couple of weeks and I felt myself sliding back. 131 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,000 I felt some symptoms coming on again and it scared me. 132 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:13,000 So right away I grabbed a bee, I stung myself a couple of times 133 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,000 and within seconds I could feel it go throughout my body and stimulate my muscles and make me much stronger. 134 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,000 So right then and there I know I'm not in remission. 135 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:29,000 It's time for physicians and the medical community to take a serious look at whether bee venom may relieve the suffering of some of our patients. 136 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:37,000 Estimates are that as many as 10,000 MS patients are currently using bee venom therapy. 137 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:42,000 Proponents also claim success in treating arthritis and chronic fatigue syndrome. 138 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:50,000 Recently the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America began funding major scientific research on this controversial treatment. 139 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,000 Bee experts do have one warning. 140 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:58,000 Roughly one person in 25 is deathly allergic to honey bee stings. 141 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,000 Anyone considering this treatment should consult a physician. 142 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,000 Coming up. 143 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:09,000 Last November the rape trial of Alex Kelly ended in a hung jury. 144 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,000 Now we put a critical defense claim to the test. 145 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:20,000 Also, when a popular exotic dancer is murdered, the only clue is an anonymous call to 911. 146 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:27,000 But first, a U.S. forest ranger searches for the unknown bomber who attacked his family. 147 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:34,000 March 31, 1995, Carson City, Nevada. 148 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,000 Guy the bomb was placed right over here on the window ledge. 149 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:42,000 And as you can see, U.S. Forest Service Ranger Guy Pence was called to work just after dawn. 150 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:47,000 An explosion had ripped through the window and the bomb was blown away. 151 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,000 The bomb was blown away by a bomb. 152 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:55,000 U.S. Forest Service Ranger Guy Pence was called to work just after dawn. 153 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:59,000 An explosion had ripped through his office the night before. 154 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,000 Do you have any idea what kind of bomb this was? 155 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:07,000 The FBI initially believed the bomber had targeted the building, not any particular employees. 156 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,000 Guy Pence suspected otherwise. 157 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:16,000 I really always felt that it was aimed as a direct statement to me. 158 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:23,000 Now, it may be aimed as a direct statement to me as a district ranger or as a federal employee, 159 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:27,000 and not so much at me specifically. 160 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:32,000 Why would Guy Pence or the Forest Service be a target? 161 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:37,000 Perhaps because they are on the front line of a war most of us don't even know about. 162 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:45,000 Some call it the sagebrush rebellion, an informal alliance of people opposed to federal control of local public lands. 163 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:54,000 For most of this century, ranchers, loggers and miners have had permits that gave them access to huge tracks of that land. 164 00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:00,000 In some families, those permits have been handed down through five generations. 165 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:07,000 Over a long history, we've always had conflicts over natural resource management. 166 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:14,000 And that can be conflicts over grazing, timber harvest, recreation. 167 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:22,000 To accommodate all users and protect the diminishing resources, the U.S. Forest Service began to restrict private use. 168 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:28,000 As district ranger, it was up to Guy Pence to make sure everyone complied with the new rules. 169 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:33,000 Everybody on the district across the board is going to make a 20% cut. 170 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:38,000 Well, I reckon we've been through worse. We'll handle this one too. I'm with you. 171 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,000 Well, I'm glad to hear it. 172 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:45,000 Most people didn't like it, but they went along. However, some saw Guy Pence himself as the enemy. 173 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:51,000 You wind up with 22 extra tomorrow. You just bring them back up on your own and we'll just call it good. 174 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,000 No, I don't think that's the case. We're running the whole herd through. 175 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,000 Michael, we went through this. We said 800 and you said you weren't going to give me any trouble about it. 176 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,000 I don't think that's the case, Guy. 177 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,000 You're making a mistake, Michael. 178 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:07,000 Guy Pence, as seems like this, has become a regular part of his job. 179 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:13,000 Similar conflicts all over the West, what originally gave rise to the sagebrush rebellion. 180 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,000 You're making a mistake. 181 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:20,000 The issue that we have here is these people have a right to grace forage. 182 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:24,000 They have a right to mine the minerals. They have a right to harvest timber. 183 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:29,000 And the bureaucrats have exceeded their authority in some way 184 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,000 or trying to stop them one way or the other. 185 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:37,000 And we are standing up as county governments to protect their rights. 186 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,000 Well, I'm telling you what's going to happen. 187 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,000 Ironically, many of the people opposed to the new federal rules 188 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,000 are local elected leaders like Commissioner Carver. 189 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:51,000 However, they too say they are dismayed by violent acts like the bombing of Pence's office. 190 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,000 We were devastated by it. 191 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:57,000 The first thing we did is notified our county sheriff's department 192 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:04,000 to put extra patrol on all the federal agency employees in Nye County. 193 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:09,000 We posted a $100,000 bond. 194 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:14,000 We want to put a stop to it as bad as anybody else. 195 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:20,000 Four months after the bombing, any question about whether Guy Pence had been personally targeted was erased. 196 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:25,000 Pence took a back country assignment. He brought along his youngest daughter. 197 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:34,000 Guy's wife Linda stated home with her two older daughters.

But dreams, I guess they do come true. 322 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:52,000 Coming up, a beautiful young dancer is murdered and some believe the killer himself notified the police. 323 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:57,000 But first, the trial of accused rapist Alex Kelly ended in a hung jury, 324 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:02,000 will independent testing validate the defense or the prosecution? 325 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:19,000 It was a trial ten years in the making. The case of scandalize 326 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:24,000 and captivated the national media. Last October alleged rapist Alex Kelly, 327 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:31,000 after nearly a decade on the run, faced his accuser in court. 328 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:36,000 She is now a grown woman. She claims that in February of 1986, 329 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,000 just after her 16th birthday, Alex Kelly raped her. 330 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:45,000 The trial ended with a jury hopelessly deadlocked. Tonight with the retrial on the horizon, 331 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,000 we will take a unique look at one of the pivotal issues in this case, 332 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:57,000 which may ultimately determine whether Alex Kelly could in fact be guilty as charged. 333 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:01,000 Darien, Connecticut, 40 miles northeast of New York City, 334 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:05,000 is one of the country's most affluent and exclusive communities. 335 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:11,000 Alex Kelly was one of Darien's brightest young men, with a wealthy, devoted family and a promising future. 336 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:17,000 In high school, Kelly was a gifted wrestler with a trademark move, the guillotine. 337 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:23,000 Alex Kelly was 18 years old when his perfect world came crashing down. 338 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:29,000 On February 10th, 1986, he met the alleged victim during a party at this house. 339 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:37,000 At around 11.30 p.m., Kelly offered to take her home in his girlfriend's Jeep Wagonier. 340 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:42,000 But according to the young woman, Alex Kelly did not drive her home. 341 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:52,000 Instead, she claimed he pulled into this secluded cul-de-sac and proceeded to rape her. 342 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,000 Four days later, this time at the nearby Stamford Country Club, 343 00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:04,000 another party, another young woman, another accusation against Alex Kelly. 344 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,000 Kelly was arrested for both alleged rapes. 345 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:12,000 He denied the charges, claiming that both incidents have been acts of consensual sex. 346 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:20,000 He was released on $200,000 bond pending the start of his trial. 347 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:25,000 But when jury selection commenced, Alex Kelly was nowhere to be found. 348 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:31,000 Over the next eight years, he continually eluded the authorities. 349 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:37,000 Then in July of 1994, police and FBI agents raided the Kelly home in Connecticut 350 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:42,000 and learned the surprising truth about Alex Kelly's years on the run. 351 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,000 Alex Kelly was leading the good life overseas. 352 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:51,000 He traveled all over his passport, was stamped with, you know, just dozens of countries in and out, 353 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:57,000 of Greece and Sweden and France and all over the globe. 354 00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:01,000 He spent a lot of his time at ski resorts, living the high life. 355 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:06,000 And, you know, he would write letters home talking about his hang gliding and his parasailing. 356 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,000 And in one letter, he even said, I could live like this forever. 357 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:14,000 And he wasn't exactly suffering. 358 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:20,000 Photographs in the Kelly home showed Alex's parents visiting him while he was in hiding. 359 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:26,000 Investigators also found an unmail letter which revealed Kelly's address in Sweden. 360 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:32,000 So Alex knows that law enforcement's closing in on him now. 361 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,000 Tom Puccio was hired by the family as Alex's lawyer. 362 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,000 Puccio met with Alex in Europe to negotiate the terms of his surrender. 363 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:48,000 And it was shortly thereafter in January of 1995 that he surrendered to Swiss authorities. 364 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,000 In May of 1995, Kelly was extradited to the U.S. 365 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,000 He was arraigned on charges of sexual assault and kidnapping. 366 00:29:55,000 --> 00:30:01,000 He was released on $1 million bond. 367 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:06,000 The trial for the first alleged rape commenced in October 1996. 368 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:13,000 Most days Alex Kelly arrived at court, hand in hand with his old high school girlfriend, Amy Molitor. 369 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,000 The star witness was Kelly's alleged victim. 370 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:21,000 In riveting details, she outlined the terror she said she had experienced. 371 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:30,000 At one point she said that his hand was on her neck the entire time before he pushed her into the back seat of the Jeep. 372 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:35,000 And at that time it just seemed like this was her description of what happened. 373 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:39,000 And it didn't seem like this was any more piece of evidence than anything else. 374 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,000 And that this wasn't going to mean anything more than anything else she was saying. 375 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,000 It turned out quite differently. 376 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,000 Defense Attorney Thomas Puccio leapt to the attack. 377 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:59,000 If Alex Kelly's hand had never left the victim's throat, it would have been impossible for him to both release and lower the back seat with his one free hand. 378 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,000 The first thought of a business is to thank the jury. 379 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:10,000 The case ended in a mistrial after the six-person jury deadlocked at Forda Convict and Tudua Quitt. 380 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:16,000 Later some of the jurors stated that the testimony about the seat latch had played a major role in the deliberations, 381 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:22,000 apparently leading some to believe a rape had never occurred. 382 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:28,000 The victim stated that he reached over and grabbed her by the throat. 383 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:34,000 He immediately put spread his legs over her body, was choking her. 384 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,000 Connie Williams was one of the six jurors. 385 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:43,000 Although he ultimately voted to convict, he has lingering doubts as to how the crime might have been committed. 386 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:49,000 On her throat, he reached around and at some point she heard a clicking noise. 387 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:53,000 The clicking noise was the lever being pulled. 388 00:31:53,000 --> 00:32:00,000 The lever is a spring-loaded device designed to be lifted and held up while a seat is pushed down. 389 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:09,000 As you can see, there is no way that I can pull this lever forward, let's put my hand forward, 390 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,000 and pulling the lever is forward with both hands in the seat. 391 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:17,000 There was no way I can do it with one hand. 392 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:21,000 Unsolved mysteries decided to put the defense claim to the test. 393 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:28,000 We asked failure analysis associates, an engineering consulting firm, to conduct an impartial demonstration. 394 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:42,000 The firm procured a 1983 Jeep Wagoneer and hired two actors with physical characteristics similar to Alex Kelly and the young woman. 395 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:50,000 Regarding the use of the seat latch, the actor portraying Kelly was simply told where the latch was and that it needed to be lifted to release the seat. 396 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:57,000 He was then told to simulate an attack and simultaneously lower the back seat using only one hand. 397 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:09,000 The test was repeated three times. In each instance, the actor successfully lowered the seat without difficulty. 398 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:22,000 Quite surprising to me that he could physically move the latch so quickly and move the seat back so fast, 399 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:28,000 given the impression I had about the latch mechanism when I first observed the car. 400 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:34,000 What we're seeing in this car is because of the condition of this particular vehicle that it is possible to lift this latch 401 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:39,000 and get it stuck on a exposed nut and bolt. 402 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:46,000 The test did, however, contain a built-in flaw. In 1986, the Wagoneer was just three years old. 403 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:55,000 The vehicle in the test was 13 years old. The scientists believe a decade of wear may have weakened the latch so that it could be moved laterally. 404 00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:01,000 To approximate the amount of wear on the latch at the time of the alleged incident, 405 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:08,000 failure analysis next brought in a 1990 Wagoneer, one of the last years the model was manufactured. 406 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:22,000 The test was repeated with a simulated attack. On four occasions, the actor attempted to manipulate the latch and lower the seat with one hand, 407 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:28,000 only once on his second attempt and with a fair amount of difficulty, was he successful. 408 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:35,000 A simple conclusion that it's possible or not possible doesn't seem to be in the works, 409 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:42,000 but nevertheless we could probably say that with a vehicle that's in relatively new condition, it's very hard to do with one hand, 410 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:50,000 although our actor was managed to do it that one time, so even there, it really surprised me, I think, that he could do that. 411 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:59,000 Whether that seat could have been operated in the way the alleged victim described is really dependent on the condition of the seat and the age of the vehicle, 412 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:06,000 and that's a primary factor in figuring out whether it could have happened, and that's something we'll never know about the subject vehicle, 413 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,000 is the condition of the seat in that vehicle. 414 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:16,000 It should be noted that the subject vehicle was not available for either the court case or a demonstration. 415 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:22,000 It was reported stolen approximately three years after Alex Kelly was arrested. 416 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:37,000 Music 417 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,000 When we return, she was a beautiful and popular exotic dancer. 418 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:47,000 Now the investigation into her murder hinges on a single question. 419 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:52,000 Who called the police? A good Samaritan or the killer himself? 420 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,000 You are about to hear an actual 911 call. 421 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:13,000 It was recorded by an emergency operator in Wheeling, Illinois, just north of Chicago. 422 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:17,000 The caller spoke from a pay phone and refused to give his name. 423 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:21,000 Police believe that he alone holds the key to solving a murder. 424 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:24,000 What time? 425 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:25,000 Wheeling Police Kelly. 426 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:29,000 Yeah, just a month to 1765, Stone Edge Court in Wheeling. 427 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:33,000 Immediately there's a young woman there who is not breathing, she's turning blue. 428 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,000 1765 Stone Edge? 429 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,000 Stone Edge.
