Who Killed Elizabeth?

In January 2000, 18-year-old Elizabeth Bannister was tragically stabbed to death in a house full of people in Evansville, Indiana. Strangely, no one claims to have seen or heard anything. This baffling, unsolved case has left investigators and the community searching for answers.

In this episode, I join Savannah on her YouTube channel, Don’t Hate. CREATE, to delve into the details of this haunting case.

If you have any information that could help solve Elizabeth’s murder, please contact the Evansville Police Department at 812-436-7979.

So this is our discussion on the
Elizabeth Banister case.

65
00:02:18.469 –> 00:02:21.150
Speaker:
This is the case of Elizabeth
Banister.

66
00:02:21.150 –> 00:02:25.270
Speaker:
And she was murdered at eighteen
years old in her apartment.

67
00:02:25.270 –> 00:02:28.030
Speaker:
She was murdered in a house
that’s full of people, yet no

68
00:02:28.030 –> 00:02:30.629
Speaker:
one heard or saw anything there.

69
00:02:30.629 –> 00:02:31.789
Speaker:
And there’s no shortage of

70
00:02:31.789 –> 00:02:33.150
Speaker:
suspects, as far as I’m

71
00:02:33.150 –> 00:02:34.310
Speaker:
concerned.

72
00:02:34.310 –> 00:02:38.250
Speaker:
The House had apparently at the
time of her murder, which was

73
00:02:38.250 –> 00:02:42.949
Speaker:
around one a m on January
twentieth, two thousand.

74
00:02:42.949 –> 00:02:46.389
Speaker:
There was apparently someone
passed out on a couch.

75
00:02:46.389 –> 00:02:48.830
Speaker:
There was someone in the
bathroom.

76
00:02:48.830 –> 00:02:50.110
Speaker:
There was somebody watching a

77
00:02:50.110 –> 00:02:51.669
Speaker:
rerun of Matlock in another

78
00:02:51.669 –> 00:02:52.509
Speaker:
room.

79
00:02:52.509 –> 00:02:54.629
Speaker:
Um, yet no one.

80
00:02:54.629 –> 00:03:00.080
Speaker:
No one heard anyone come in or
leave or anything.

81
00:03:00.080 –> 00:03:01.800
Speaker:
Apparently about an hour.

82
00:03:01.800 –> 00:03:03.319
Speaker:
Yeah, it’s very weird.

83
00:03:03.319 –> 00:03:06.680
Speaker:
And she had an just an absolute
tragic life.

84
00:03:06.680 –> 00:03:08.800
Speaker:
I mean, leading up to that
point.

85
00:03:08.800 –> 00:03:09.960
Speaker:
It’s just the more I read about

86
00:03:09.960 –> 00:03:11.360
Speaker:
it, the more like horrifying it

87
00:03:11.360 –> 00:03:11.639
Speaker:
is.

88
00:03:11.639 –> 00:03:14.360
Speaker:
How just bad her life was.

89
00:03:14.360 –> 00:03:17.919
Speaker:
And her sister Sara, um, she’s
done some podcasts and talks a

90
00:03:17.919 –> 00:03:21.599
Speaker:
lot about she’s an advocate for
finding her sister’s murder.

91
00:03:21.599 –> 00:03:24.639
Speaker:
Um, she talks a lot about the
abuse that took place and, and

92
00:03:24.639 –> 00:03:25.360
Speaker:
that sort of thing.

93
00:03:25.360 –> 00:03:28.199
Speaker:
But, um, she was born in, uh,
California.

94
00:03:28.199 –> 00:03:29.680
Speaker:
And then when she was eight, she

95
00:03:29.680 –> 00:03:30.860
Speaker:
and her family moved to the

96
00:03:30.860 –> 00:03:32.439
Speaker:
Evansville area.

97
00:03:32.439 –> 00:03:36.280
Speaker:
And so Elizabeth had, um, she
had three siblings there, Sarah,

98
00:03:36.280 –> 00:03:38.199
Speaker:
Rebecca and Doug.

99
00:03:38.199 –> 00:03:39.840
Speaker:
So Sarah, Rebecca, and Doug were

100
00:03:39.840 –> 00:03:41.840
Speaker:
from a different father than

101
00:03:41.840 –> 00:03:42.560
Speaker:
Elizabeth.

102
00:03:42.560 –> 00:03:45.280
Speaker:
So they were kind of separated
for that reason, I believe.

103
00:03:45.280 –> 00:03:49.240
Speaker:
And also Elizabeth seemed to
have some behavioral issues.

104
00:03:49.240 –> 00:03:52.659
Speaker:
Um, so she spent most of her
time in group homes and with

105
00:03:52.659 –> 00:03:56.610
Speaker:
other groups rather than with
the other three siblings, which

106
00:03:56.610 –> 00:03:57.810
Speaker:
is kind of sad too.

107
00:03:57.810 –> 00:03:59.210
Speaker:
Yeah.

108
00:03:59.210 –> 00:04:03.650
Speaker:
So Sarah, Rebecca and Doug ended
up with one group and then

109
00:04:03.650 –> 00:04:05.810
Speaker:
Elizabeth off by herself.

110
00:04:05.810 –> 00:04:10.430
Speaker:
And Sarah tells the story about
how when Elizabeth was eight,

111
00:04:10.430 –> 00:04:13.289
Speaker:
she was actually assaulted by a
male relative as well.

112
00:04:13.289 –> 00:04:15.610
Speaker:
So that’s when she was also sent
off.

113
00:04:15.610 –> 00:04:18.050
Speaker:
Um, later on to live with
someone else as well.

114
00:04:18.050 –> 00:04:19.730
Speaker:
So there was that factor as
well.

115
00:04:19.730 –> 00:04:22.569
Speaker:
So she, she did not start off
very well.

116
00:04:22.569 –> 00:04:27.170
Speaker:
She was sent off after she got
like, um, yeah, the timeline is

117
00:04:27.170 –> 00:04:32.389
Speaker:
confusing as far as like when
she was eight, she was assaulted

118
00:04:32.389 –> 00:04:33.689
Speaker:
by a male relative.

119
00:04:33.689 –> 00:04:38.009
Speaker:
So I’m not sure how soon after
that that she was actually sent

120
00:04:38.009 –> 00:04:39.009
Speaker:
off somewhere else.

121
00:04:39.009 –> 00:04:42.290
Speaker:
I don’t know if she did not
report it until a later date,

122
00:04:42.290 –> 00:04:45.370
Speaker:
but oh yeah, I know that would
probably explain her behavioral

123
00:04:45.370 –> 00:04:46.970
Speaker:
problems too a bit.

124
00:04:46.970 –> 00:04:47.569
Speaker:
Correct.

125
00:04:47.569 –> 00:04:50.089
Speaker:
So I don’t know who knew what
and when kind of a thing.

126
00:04:50.089 –> 00:04:52.050
Speaker:
Um, but apparently it did damage

127
00:04:52.050 –> 00:04:53.819
Speaker:
to her where she couldn’t have

128
00:04:53.819 –> 00:04:54.420
Speaker:
children.

129
00:04:54.420 –> 00:04:56.420
Speaker:
I mean, it was like that kind of
a thing.

130
00:04:56.420 –> 00:05:00.899
Speaker:
According to her, her foster
mother later on said that, um,

131
00:05:00.899 –> 00:05:05.699
Speaker:
while Elizabeth was away with
living with where she was, Sarah

132
00:05:05.699 –> 00:05:11.500
Speaker:
and Rebecca and Doug were with
their mom, Rose, and her various

133
00:05:11.500 –> 00:05:12.980
Speaker:
boyfriends, and apparently she.

134
00:05:12.980 –> 00:05:16.300
Speaker:
Rose did not pick men very well,
apparently.

135
00:05:16.300 –> 00:05:19.860
Speaker:
So they were all abusive to her
and the children.

136
00:05:19.860 –> 00:05:23.420
Speaker:
And, um, one of those boyfriends

137
00:05:23.420 –> 00:05:25.639
Speaker:
that she was with was named Mark

138
00:05:25.639 –> 00:05:29.420
Speaker:
and Mark when Mark was a truck

139
00:05:29.420 –> 00:05:31.819
Speaker:
driver and when Mark would go

140
00:05:31.819 –> 00:05:34.660
Speaker:
off on over the road trips, he

141
00:05:34.660 –> 00:05:37.000
Speaker:
would have Sara or Rebecca go

142
00:05:37.000 –> 00:05:37.300
Speaker:
with him.

143
00:05:37.300 –> 00:05:38.660
Speaker:
They would demand it.

144
00:05:38.660 –> 00:05:41.540
Speaker:
And Rose would say, Rose, their
mother would say, yeah, I want

145
00:05:41.540 –> 00:05:45.180
Speaker:
you to go with him, um, to give
me a break, you know, and he

146
00:05:45.180 –> 00:05:46.620
Speaker:
would only want one at a time.

147
00:05:46.620 –> 00:05:47.259
Speaker:
Of course not.

148
00:05:47.259 –> 00:05:48.660
Speaker:
Both of them.

149
00:05:48.660 –> 00:05:50.920
Speaker:
Apparently, Sarah and Rebecca
would tell their mother, you

150
00:05:50.920 –> 00:05:53.759
Speaker:
know, he’s he’s abusing, he’s
putting his hands on us, that

151
00:05:53.759 –> 00:05:54.480
Speaker:
kind of thing.

152
00:05:54.480 –> 00:05:55.680
Speaker:
And she really wouldn’t listen.

153
00:05:55.680 –> 00:05:58.639
Speaker:
So that is really, really sad.

154
00:05:58.639 –> 00:06:00.040
Speaker:
It’s really sad.

155
00:06:00.040 –> 00:06:03.360
Speaker:
Like people need to listen to
their children.

156
00:06:03.360 –> 00:06:06.560
Speaker:
I do not imagine I it’s

157
00:06:06.560 –> 00:06:07.680
Speaker:
appalling when people do not

158
00:06:07.680 –> 00:06:08.819
Speaker:
listen to their children saying

159
00:06:08.819 –> 00:06:09.160
Speaker:
these things.

160
00:06:09.160 –> 00:06:11.160
Speaker:
It’s just like you just you
can’t believe it.

161
00:06:11.160 –> 00:06:12.519
Speaker:
But it does happen.

162
00:06:12.519 –> 00:06:13.680
Speaker:
Apparently he did.

163
00:06:13.680 –> 00:06:16.639
Speaker:
Um, Mark did assault Sarah on
one of these trips.

164
00:06:16.639 –> 00:06:18.319
Speaker:
She says in one of the podcast,

165
00:06:18.319 –> 00:06:19.360
Speaker:
we’ll actually listen to a clip

166
00:06:19.360 –> 00:06:20.939
Speaker:
of that, um, here in a bit, but,

167
00:06:20.939 –> 00:06:22.680
Speaker:
um, I don’t know what Rebecca

168
00:06:22.680 –> 00:06:23.759
Speaker:
has not spoken, so I don’t know

169
00:06:23.759 –> 00:06:25.839
Speaker:
if she’s also, but it would not

170
00:06:25.839 –> 00:06:27.399
Speaker:
surprise me if he also did stuff

171
00:06:27.399 –> 00:06:28.519
Speaker:
to her.

172
00:06:28.519 –> 00:06:29.000
Speaker:
Yeah.

173
00:06:29.000 –> 00:06:33.240
Speaker:
Um, it goes to stands to reason
that that would happen.

174
00:06:33.240 –> 00:06:34.199
Speaker:
Exactly.

175
00:06:34.199 –> 00:06:37.439
Speaker:
So and this just kind of giving,
giving a little background

176
00:06:37.439 –> 00:06:40.199
Speaker:
because it just gets weirder
here in a bit.

177
00:06:40.199 –> 00:06:44.120
Speaker:
Rose started going downhill
physically, um, and started

178
00:06:44.120 –> 00:06:44.720
Speaker:
needing some help.

179
00:06:44.720 –> 00:06:50.829
Speaker:
So Elizabeth came home with Rose
and started helping her at home

180
00:06:50.829 –> 00:06:53.410
Speaker:
and she ended up passing away.

181
00:06:53.410 –> 00:06:56.610
Speaker:
Elizabeth actually found her
mother dead in the bed.

182
00:06:56.610 –> 00:06:57.170
Speaker:
Mhm.

183
00:06:57.170 –> 00:07:00.850
Speaker:
Um, she had apparently passed
away of emphysema.

184
00:07:00.850 –> 00:07:03.370
Speaker:
And there’s some weirdness
there, too, because apparently

185
00:07:03.370 –> 00:07:06.930
Speaker:
she was next to her then
boyfriend, which was not Mark at

186
00:07:06.930 –> 00:07:09.129
Speaker:
the time, apparently.

187
00:07:09.129 –> 00:07:12.610
Speaker:
But a dog had eaten like half of
her face off, so apparently she

188
00:07:12.610 –> 00:07:15.290
Speaker:
had been there long enough for a
dog to have eaten her face.

189
00:07:15.290 –> 00:07:17.569
Speaker:
But the guy she was with didn’t
know, so.

190
00:07:17.569 –> 00:07:19.490
Speaker:
Oh gosh, there’s some suspicion

191
00:07:19.490 –> 00:07:20.610
Speaker:
there with like, what really

192
00:07:20.610 –> 00:07:22.490
Speaker:
happened, but I don’t think that

193
00:07:22.490 –> 00:07:23.769
Speaker:
was ever even an open case or

194
00:07:23.769 –> 00:07:24.050
Speaker:
anything.

195
00:07:24.050 –> 00:07:26.490
Speaker:
It’s just she passed away of
emphysema.

196
00:07:26.490 –> 00:07:30.790
Speaker:
And then, um, Elizabeth was
dating a guy that her her

197
00:07:30.790 –> 00:07:32.930
Speaker:
correct mom was with.

198
00:07:32.930 –> 00:07:35.329
Speaker:
After Rose passes away,

199
00:07:35.329 –> 00:07:37.050
Speaker:
Elizabeth goes back to the group

200
00:07:37.050 –> 00:07:37.209
Speaker:
home.

201
00:07:37.209 –> 00:07:40.209
Speaker:
I think she goes to Hillcrest,
Washington youth home in

202
00:07:40.209 –> 00:07:42.930
Speaker:
Evansville until she ages out.

203
00:07:42.930 –> 00:07:45.810
Speaker:
And when she ages out at
eighteen, she moves into the

204
00:07:45.810 –> 00:07:49.060
Speaker:
apartment on Washington Avenue,
which is where she was murdered.

205
00:07:49.060 –> 00:07:51.319
Speaker:
She moved in with her boyfriend,

206
00:07:51.319 –> 00:07:53.660
Speaker:
then boyfriend Mark, who was the

207
00:07:53.660 –> 00:07:55.279
Speaker:
same guy that her mother was

208
00:07:55.279 –> 00:07:57.600
Speaker:
engaged to or dating or whatever

209
00:07:57.600 –> 00:07:59.060
Speaker:
later on.

210
00:07:59.060 –> 00:08:05.339
Speaker:
So yes, she ends up dating Mark,
her her deceased mother’s

211
00:08:05.339 –> 00:08:07.660
Speaker:
fiance, I guess you’d say.

212
00:08:07.660 –> 00:08:08.300
Speaker:
Um, wow.

213
00:08:08.300 –> 00:08:09.660
Speaker:
This obviously caused issues

214
00:08:09.660 –> 00:08:12.160
Speaker:
with Sarah and, uh, Elizabeth

215
00:08:12.160 –> 00:08:14.959
Speaker:
because Sarah was appalled that,

216
00:08:14.959 –> 00:08:16.300
Speaker:
you know, this man who had done

217
00:08:16.300 –> 00:08:17.899
Speaker:
all of these bad things to her

218
00:08:17.899 –> 00:08:20.300
Speaker:
and her sister would actually be

219
00:08:20.300 –> 00:08:21.860
Speaker:
interested in their other sister

220
00:08:21.860 –> 00:08:23.259
Speaker:
and that she would go along with

221
00:08:23.259 –> 00:08:23.660
Speaker:
Mark.

222
00:08:23.660 –> 00:08:25.339
Speaker:
Mark was the truck driver.

223
00:08:25.339 –> 00:08:27.139
Speaker:
Mark was the truck driver.

224
00:08:27.139 –> 00:08:28.620
Speaker:
Oh my goodness.

225
00:08:28.620 –> 00:08:31.680
Speaker:
Mark the truck driver, who was

226
00:08:31.680 –> 00:08:33.259
Speaker:
the their mother’s boyfriend who

227
00:08:33.259 –> 00:08:35.799
Speaker:
was abusing the other siblings,

228
00:08:35.799 –> 00:08:38.659
Speaker:
ends up dating Elizabeth after

229
00:08:38.659 –> 00:08:39.860
Speaker:
Rosa’s death.

230
00:08:39.860 –> 00:08:40.659
Speaker:
That’s crazy.

231
00:08:40.659 –> 00:08:44.019
Speaker:
Was Elizabeth’s older than the
other three or she was younger?

232
00:08:44.019 –> 00:08:46.159
Speaker:
Yeah, she’s a few years older.

233
00:08:46.159 –> 00:08:50.000
Speaker:
I think she’s four years older
than Sarah, and I’m not sure how

234
00:08:50.000 –> 00:08:51.399
Speaker:
old the other siblings were.

235
00:08:51.399 –> 00:08:51.759
Speaker:
She.

236
00:08:51.759 –> 00:08:54.919
Speaker:
I don’t know that, but she’s
older than the others.

237
00:08:54.919 –> 00:08:56.039
Speaker:
Okay.

238
00:08:56.039 –> 00:08:57.399
Speaker:
Yeah.

239
00:08:57.399 –> 00:09:02.200
Speaker:
So Mark was obviously one of
the, the people who were

240
00:09:02.200 –> 00:09:07.200
Speaker:
questioned by the police because
he, he’s clearly on that list of

241
00:09:07.200 –> 00:09:10.039
Speaker:
people who might have reasons to
have done something.

242
00:09:10.039 –> 00:09:11.159
Speaker:
I guess he’s just at the very

243
00:09:11.159 –> 00:09:13.039
Speaker:
top of mind right now as far as

244
00:09:13.039 –> 00:09:15.080
Speaker:
that story.

245
00:09:15.080 –> 00:09:20.600
Speaker:
And Kelly Fontaine is the foster
mother who actually helped raise

246
00:09:20.600 –> 00:09:22.960
Speaker:
Elizabeth from the time she was
twelve to seventeen.

247
00:09:22.960 –> 00:09:26.000
Speaker:
She was a big part of her life
at that time.

248
00:09:26.000 –> 00:09:28.600
Speaker:
She says that Mark had something
to do with it.

249
00:09:28.600 –> 00:09:29.679
Speaker:
She knew Mark had something to

250
00:09:29.679 –> 00:09:31.240
Speaker:
do with it before she even knew

251
00:09:31.240 –> 00:09:32.759
Speaker:
the details that she was even

252
00:09:32.759 –> 00:09:33.639
Speaker:
dating Mark.

253
00:09:33.639 –> 00:09:37.120
Speaker:
She did not know that they were
dating, and she immediately

254
00:09:37.120 –> 00:09:39.440
Speaker:
suspected Mark for whatever
reason, because he gave her a

255
00:09:39.440 –> 00:09:41.639
Speaker:
bad vibe or something.

256
00:09:41.639 –> 00:09:43.600
Speaker:
Um, but she was kind of shocked

257
00:09:43.600 –> 00:09:44.730
Speaker:
to learn that they were actually

258
00:09:44.730 –> 00:09:46.610
Speaker:
dating at the time that she was

259
00:09:46.610 –> 00:09:48.710
Speaker:
murdered, but he apparently had

260
00:09:48.710 –> 00:09:49.809
Speaker:
an alibi.

261
00:09:49.809 –> 00:09:53.409
Speaker:
He was working when she was
murdered.

262
00:09:53.409 –> 00:09:53.850
Speaker:
So.

263
00:09:53.850 –> 00:09:54.049
Speaker:
Yeah.

264
00:09:54.049 –> 00:09:54.570
Speaker:
Right.

265
00:09:54.570 –> 00:09:56.090
Speaker:
I’m just kidding.

266
00:09:56.090 –> 00:09:56.929
Speaker:
That’s what I’m thinking.

267
00:09:56.929 –> 00:09:57.889
Speaker:
I’ve.

268
00:09:57.889 –> 00:10:00.450
Speaker:
I’ve fallen down so many rabbit
holes to figure out who this guy

269
00:10:00.450 –> 00:10:02.830
Speaker:
is, because none of the names
have been released other than

270
00:10:02.830 –> 00:10:04.009
Speaker:
Sarah saying his name.

271
00:10:04.009 –> 00:10:05.409
Speaker:
Mark.

272
00:10:05.409 –> 00:10:07.409
Speaker:
Um, on a few podcasts.

273
00:10:07.409 –> 00:10:09.210
Speaker:
Um, because I’m trying to figure

274
00:10:09.210 –> 00:10:09.889
Speaker:
out like, where did the guy

275
00:10:09.889 –> 00:10:10.090
Speaker:
work?

276
00:10:10.090 –> 00:10:10.570
Speaker:
Like who?

277
00:10:10.570 –> 00:10:12.649
Speaker:
How did they verify he was at
work?

278
00:10:12.649 –> 00:10:14.929
Speaker:
I don’t know if he was a truck
driver at that time.

279
00:10:14.929 –> 00:10:16.690
Speaker:
I know he was back a few years

280
00:10:16.690 –> 00:10:18.289
Speaker:
earlier, but was he a truck

281
00:10:18.289 –> 00:10:19.610
Speaker:
driver then?

282
00:10:19.610 –> 00:10:21.970
Speaker:
I guess that would be easier to
verify if you were on on the

283
00:10:21.970 –> 00:10:22.730
Speaker:
road or something.

284
00:10:22.730 –> 00:10:24.210
Speaker:
But it’s not that hard for

285
00:10:24.210 –> 00:10:25.370
Speaker:
somebody to clock you in if

286
00:10:25.370 –> 00:10:26.769
Speaker:
you’re like, working in a plant

287
00:10:26.769 –> 00:10:28.090
Speaker:
or something.

288
00:10:28.090 –> 00:10:29.210
Speaker:
Uh, totally.

289
00:10:29.210 –> 00:10:30.370
Speaker:
Yeah.

290
00:10:30.370 –> 00:10:32.049
Speaker:
The coroner, who was Annie

291
00:10:32.049 –> 00:10:34.470
Speaker:
Groves, says that it was a crime

292
00:10:34.470 –> 00:10:35.850
Speaker:
of passion because apparently it

293
00:10:35.850 –> 00:10:36.649
Speaker:
was.

294
00:10:36.649 –> 00:10:39.929
Speaker:
She was stabbed multiple times
in her apartment, and apparently

295
00:10:39.929 –> 00:10:41.490
Speaker:
the first stabbing was fatal.

296
00:10:41.490 –> 00:10:45.659
Speaker:
Like it hit her in the aorta and
that’s the one that did her in.

297
00:10:45.659 –> 00:10:47.980
Speaker:
And the person just kept
stabbing.

298
00:10:47.980 –> 00:10:50.100
Speaker:
They think it’s a crime of
passion, not like just some

299
00:10:50.100 –> 00:10:53.139
Speaker:
random guy staggering into the
apartment, you know?

300
00:10:53.139 –> 00:10:55.899
Speaker:
Yeah, like overdid it, overdid
it.

301
00:10:55.899 –> 00:10:56.299
Speaker:
Right.

302
00:10:56.299 –> 00:11:01.059
Speaker:
So. But there’s no proof the at
the time.

303
00:11:01.059 –> 00:11:03.279
Speaker:
And to add some more strange

304
00:11:03.279 –> 00:11:05.139
Speaker:
things here, about an hour

305
00:11:05.139 –> 00:11:07.440
Speaker:
before she was murdered, she had

306
00:11:07.440 –> 00:11:08.940
Speaker:
asked if Elizabeth had asked a

307
00:11:08.940 –> 00:11:11.519
Speaker:
friend for some money to use the

308
00:11:11.519 –> 00:11:12.700
Speaker:
payphone.

309
00:11:12.700 –> 00:11:14.139
Speaker:
The friend came over, gave her

310
00:11:14.139 –> 00:11:18.580
Speaker:
the money and left, and he comes

311
00:11:18.580 –> 00:11:20.620
Speaker:
back an hour later to check on

312
00:11:20.620 –> 00:11:20.860
Speaker:
her.

313
00:11:20.860 –> 00:11:22.179
Speaker:
For some reason, I don’t know
why he would.

314
00:11:22.179 –> 00:11:24.340
Speaker:
I don’t know if he was coming
back to get more money, get the

315
00:11:24.340 –> 00:11:27.980
Speaker:
money back, or where’s the
payphone at that?

316
00:11:27.980 –> 00:11:30.740
Speaker:
I don’t know, so I’m guessing it
was nearby their house.

317
00:11:30.740 –> 00:11:35.059
Speaker:
Um, she borrows money from this
friend to use a payphone.

318
00:11:35.059 –> 00:11:36.440
Speaker:
An hour later, he comes back to

319
00:11:36.440 –> 00:11:38.580
Speaker:
check on her and he finds her

320
00:11:38.580 –> 00:11:38.899
Speaker:
dead.

321
00:11:38.899 –> 00:11:40.559
Speaker:
Or he finds the crime scene.

322
00:11:40.559 –> 00:11:41.440
Speaker:
I don’t know if he’s the one who

323
00:11:41.440 –> 00:11:42.559
Speaker:
actually found her body, but he

324
00:11:42.559 –> 00:11:43.720
Speaker:
comes back and finds that she’s

325
00:11:43.720 –> 00:11:44.879
Speaker:
been murdered.

326
00:11:44.879 –> 00:11:48.820
Speaker:
So a cabbie was questioned by
police because a cab did

327
00:11:48.820 –> 00:11:53.440
Speaker:
actually come to the house, had
been called, but no one ever

328
00:11:53.440 –> 00:11:55.519
Speaker:
came out when he got there.

329
00:11:55.519 –> 00:11:56.720
Speaker:
So he took off.

330
00:11:57.919 –> 00:12:01.000
Speaker:
So it we don’t know, like where

331
00:12:01.000 –> 00:12:02.059
Speaker:
was she going, that kind of

332
00:12:02.059 –> 00:12:02.559
Speaker:
thing.

333
00:12:02.559 –> 00:12:06.559
Speaker:
Um, so we’ve got another that’s
always a strange situation.

334
00:12:06.559 –> 00:12:08.279
Speaker:
Just that, that whole the friend

335
00:12:08.279 –> 00:12:09.519
Speaker:
with borrowing money and coming

336
00:12:09.519 –> 00:12:10.559
Speaker:
back to check on her an hour

337
00:12:10.559 –> 00:12:12.080
Speaker:
later, that’s just strange as

338
00:12:12.080 –> 00:12:13.200
Speaker:
well.

339
00:12:13.200 –> 00:12:17.059
Speaker:
There are reports in the
Evansville papers that a, a

340
00:12:17.059 –> 00:12:21.159
Speaker:
neighbor saw an African American
male jump out of a window and

341
00:12:21.159 –> 00:12:22.679
Speaker:
run down the street.

342
00:12:22.679 –> 00:12:25.240
Speaker:
That sounds you know, that
sounds.

343
00:12:25.240 –> 00:12:28.240
Speaker:
I don’t know, I’m not gonna say
convenient.

344
00:12:28.240 –> 00:12:33.679
Speaker:
Yeah, it sounds like a little
bit of racism or something, you

345
00:12:33.679 –> 00:12:34.879
Speaker:
know, like, I don’t know, maybe.

346
00:12:34.879 –> 00:12:35.000
Speaker:
Yeah.

347
00:12:35.000 –> 00:12:35.600
Speaker:
There’s a black guy.

348
00:12:35.600 –> 00:12:38.000
Speaker:
There was, I don’t know, it’s

349
00:12:38.000 –> 00:12:41.129
Speaker:
yet another strange part of this

350
00:12:41.129 –> 00:12:43.289
Speaker:
and it just gets stranger with

351
00:12:43.289 –> 00:12:43.730
Speaker:
this.

352
00:12:43.730 –> 00:12:45.169
Speaker:
Um, yeah.

353
00:12:45.169 –> 00:12:47.250
Speaker:
Did she live in like, a bad part
of town though?

354
00:12:47.250 –> 00:12:48.330
Speaker:
I guess I shouldn’t say that.

355
00:12:48.330 –> 00:12:49.289
Speaker:
It’s like out of.

356
00:12:49.289 –> 00:12:49.570
Speaker:
Yeah.

357
00:12:49.570 –> 00:12:50.809
Speaker:
It wasn’t a great part of town.

358
00:12:50.809 –> 00:12:54.889
Speaker:
And she lived in a house that’s
um a lady owned it.

359
00:12:54.889 –> 00:12:57.970
Speaker:
She apparently the lady who
lived there, uh, who owned it

360
00:12:57.970 –> 00:13:00.970
Speaker:
was in her seventies and I don’t
think she was doing very well

361
00:13:00.970 –> 00:13:03.590
Speaker:
either, because I was, I’ve been
doing some research on her, but,

362
00:13:03.590 –> 00:13:07.110
Speaker:
um, I think she had maybe
Alzheimer’s or dementia kind of

363
00:13:07.110 –> 00:13:11.049
Speaker:
developing at that time, but she
would bring in these people.

364
00:13:11.049 –> 00:13:11.809
Speaker:
She kind of turned her house

365
00:13:11.809 –> 00:13:13.250
Speaker:
into an apartment complex where

366
00:13:13.250 –> 00:13:14.450
Speaker:
people would just come in and

367
00:13:14.450 –> 00:13:15.169
Speaker:
rent rooms.

368
00:13:15.169 –> 00:13:18.690
Speaker:
So I think she was living in the
basement.

369
00:13:18.690 –> 00:13:20.769
Speaker:
Yeah, the lady was living in the
basement of that house.

370
00:13:20.769 –> 00:13:21.610
Speaker:
The lady was living in the

371
00:13:21.610 –> 00:13:23.610
Speaker:
basement, from what I

372
00:13:23.610 –> 00:13:24.289
Speaker:
understand.

373
00:13:24.289 –> 00:13:25.769
Speaker:
And then she was renting out the

374
00:13:25.769 –> 00:13:27.889
Speaker:
room so that there were, uh,

375
00:13:27.889 –> 00:13:29.210
Speaker:
four people renting rooms, I

376
00:13:29.210 –> 00:13:30.169
Speaker:
believe at that time, there was

377
00:13:30.169 –> 00:13:31.450
Speaker:
Elizabeth and then three others,

378
00:13:31.450 –> 00:13:32.409
Speaker:
I believe.

379
00:13:32.409 –> 00:13:34.570
Speaker:
Oh, this the pictures you sent

380
00:13:34.570 –> 00:13:36.715
Speaker:
me that like it was torn down,

381
00:13:36.715 –> 00:13:37.899
Speaker:
right?

382
00:13:37.899 –> 00:13:38.980
Speaker:
It was torn down.

383
00:13:38.980 –> 00:13:40.100
Speaker:
Let me give you.

384
00:13:40.100 –> 00:13:42.460
Speaker:
I’ve got a picture here.

385
00:13:42.460 –> 00:13:44.659
Speaker:
Like the older pictures that.

386
00:13:44.659 –> 00:13:45.100
Speaker:
Yeah.

387
00:13:45.100 –> 00:13:45.940
Speaker:
It’s like a black and white.

388
00:13:45.940 –> 00:13:47.100
Speaker:
It’s from the newspaper.

389
00:13:47.100 –> 00:13:48.220
Speaker:
I have that, I think.

390
00:13:48.220 –> 00:13:48.620
Speaker:
You got that?

391
00:13:48.620 –> 00:13:49.820
Speaker:
Okay.

392
00:13:49.820 –> 00:13:53.580
Speaker:
And I went there a few months
ago to, um, take some pictures

393
00:13:53.580 –> 00:13:54.299
Speaker:
of the actual scene.

394
00:13:54.299 –> 00:13:57.100
Speaker:
I got a video as well of the
current scene, but.

395
00:13:57.100 –> 00:13:57.580
Speaker:
Oh. Do you.

396
00:13:57.580 –> 00:14:00.019
Speaker:
You can share your screen if you
want.

397
00:14:00.019 –> 00:14:02.159
Speaker:
Um, Hiawatha says that they

398
00:14:02.159 –> 00:14:03.500
Speaker:
would love to read the police

399
00:14:03.500 –> 00:14:04.059
Speaker:
report.

400
00:14:04.059 –> 00:14:08.580
Speaker:
And you did try to get like
FOIA, um, the information.

401
00:14:08.580 –> 00:14:09.059
Speaker:
Right?

402
00:14:09.059 –> 00:14:11.580
Speaker:
And they wouldn’t give you stuff

403
00:14:11.580 –> 00:14:12.860
Speaker:
or they would not give me

404
00:14:12.860 –> 00:14:13.419
Speaker:
anything.

405
00:14:13.419 –> 00:14:15.659
Speaker:
Go ahead and share your screen
because mine is not bringing up

406
00:14:15.659 –> 00:14:17.059
Speaker:
my pictures for some reason.

407
00:14:17.059 –> 00:14:21.820
Speaker:
Um, I sent a FOIA request to the
Evansville Police Department a

408
00:14:21.820 –> 00:14:22.620
Speaker:
couple of months ago.

409
00:14:22.620 –> 00:14:24.299
Speaker:
Maybe it was over a month ago.

410
00:14:24.299 –> 00:14:28.759
Speaker:
And since I mean, this has been
now almost twenty five years, I

411
00:14:28.759 –> 00:14:32.940
Speaker:
would I’ve got to think that
this is, uh, you know, not

412
00:14:32.940 –> 00:14:34.419
Speaker:
considered a super active case.

413
00:14:34.419 –> 00:14:36.269
Speaker:
So I did send a FOIA request for

414
00:14:36.269 –> 00:14:37.350
Speaker:
all of the information on this

415
00:14:37.350 –> 00:14:37.590
Speaker:
case.

416
00:14:37.590 –> 00:14:41.149
Speaker:
And then they responded a couple
of weeks ago that they are still

417
00:14:41.149 –> 00:14:42.389
Speaker:
considering this an active case.

418
00:14:42.389 –> 00:14:46.429
Speaker:
So they’re not going to release
any of the, um, police reports,

419
00:14:46.429 –> 00:14:47.750
Speaker:
which is very frustrating.

420
00:14:47.750 –> 00:14:49.950
Speaker:
It’s like it’s almost a quarter
of a century later.

421
00:14:49.950 –> 00:14:51.629
Speaker:
It’s like, come on.

422
00:14:51.629 –> 00:14:52.190
Speaker:
Yeah.

423
00:14:52.190 –> 00:14:55.149
Speaker:
Like, yeah, that’s crazy.

424
00:14:55.149 –> 00:14:55.470
Speaker:
Yeah.

425
00:14:55.470 –> 00:14:56.789
Speaker:
I mean, so I would really love

426
00:14:56.789 –> 00:14:58.029
Speaker:
to read the police report as

427
00:14:58.029 –> 00:14:59.629
Speaker:
well.

428
00:14:59.629 –> 00:15:00.870
Speaker:
Yeah, there’s the house.

429
00:15:00.870 –> 00:15:02.870
Speaker:
So she apparently lived.

430
00:15:02.870 –> 00:15:04.990
Speaker:
Um, God, that’s a horrible
picture.

431
00:15:04.990 –> 00:15:06.110
Speaker:
Um, but that’s really the one of

432
00:15:06.110 –> 00:15:06.990
Speaker:
the only ones I could find

433
00:15:06.990 –> 00:15:07.950
Speaker:
because like I said, it was

434
00:15:07.950 –> 00:15:08.429
Speaker:
knocked down.

435
00:15:08.429 –> 00:15:09.809
Speaker:
So actually what happened was in

436
00:15:09.809 –> 00:15:11.350
Speaker:
two thousand and four, the owner

437
00:15:11.350 –> 00:15:13.549
Speaker:
of the house was apparently a

438
00:15:13.549 –> 00:15:13.830
Speaker:
hoarder.

439
00:15:13.830 –> 00:15:15.870
Speaker:
Apparently she was not doing
well at all.

440
00:15:15.870 –> 00:15:18.029
Speaker:
So she would stack newspapers
all over the place and they

441
00:15:18.029 –> 00:15:19.350
Speaker:
caught on fire.

442
00:15:19.350 –> 00:15:22.389
Speaker:
And the whole place burned down
in two thousand and four.

443
00:15:22.389 –> 00:15:25.429
Speaker:
So which is kind of upsetting
because, I mean, it had whatever

444
00:15:25.429 –> 00:15:28.149
Speaker:
evidence might have been in this
house is gone.

445
00:15:28.149 –> 00:15:30.409
Speaker:
Uh, you know, they really can’t,

446
00:15:30.409 –> 00:15:32.230
Speaker:
you know, look into anything any

447
00:15:32.230 –> 00:15:32.629
Speaker:
further.

448
00:15:32.629 –> 00:15:35.009
Speaker:
So which makes it even more
difficult.

449
00:15:35.009 –> 00:15:36.169
Speaker:
Yeah.

450
00:15:36.169 –> 00:15:38.610
Speaker:
Um, but yeah, so now it’s just a
vacant lot.

451
00:15:39.809 –> 00:15:42.850
Speaker:
So, um, this happened in two
thousand.

452
00:15:42.850 –> 00:15:43.450
Speaker:
Is that correct?

453
00:15:43.450 –> 00:15:45.250
Speaker:
Yeah, this was in two thousand.

454
00:15:45.250 –> 00:15:46.730
Speaker:
So a couple of years ago.

455
00:15:46.730 –> 00:15:48.730
Speaker:
This was in twenty twenty three.

456
00:15:48.730 –> 00:15:50.169
Speaker:
And this is another twist that’s

457
00:15:50.169 –> 00:15:51.769
Speaker:
just it just gets weirder and

458
00:15:51.769 –> 00:15:52.690
Speaker:
weirder.

459
00:15:52.690 –> 00:15:54.509
Speaker:
In twenty twenty three, uh, Phil

460
00:15:54.509 –> 00:15:57.009
Speaker:
Chalmers, a podcaster who has a

461
00:15:57.009 –> 00:15:58.610
Speaker:
podcast called or did have a

462
00:15:58.610 –> 00:15:59.450
Speaker:
podcast, I don’t think he’s

463
00:15:59.450 –> 00:16:00.649
Speaker:
releasing episodes anymore, but

464
00:16:00.649 –> 00:16:01.809
Speaker:
it’s called Where the Bodies are

465
00:16:01.809 –> 00:16:02.850
Speaker:
Buried.

466
00:16:02.850 –> 00:16:03.889
Speaker:
Okay.

467
00:16:03.889 –> 00:16:10.090
Speaker:
And his very first episode, he
interviews William Clyde Gibson.

468
00:16:10.090 –> 00:16:11.690
Speaker:
He, William Clyde Gibson is a

469
00:16:11.690 –> 00:16:13.889
Speaker:
serial killer who killed three

470
00:16:13.889 –> 00:16:16.009
Speaker:
people in the Louisville, New

471
00:16:16.009 –> 00:16:18.610
Speaker:
Albany, Indiana area in, I

472
00:16:18.610 –> 00:16:19.970
Speaker:
believe, twenty twelve, I

473
00:16:19.970 –> 00:16:20.730
Speaker:
believe.

474
00:16:20.730 –> 00:16:23.049
Speaker:
Um, that time and he was he’s on

475
00:16:23.049 –> 00:16:24.409
Speaker:
Indiana’s death row right now

476
00:16:24.409 –> 00:16:25.049
Speaker:
for murder.

477
00:16:25.049 –> 00:16:27.970
Speaker:
And he, I mean, I’m not going to
get into the graphic details,

478
00:16:27.970 –> 00:16:30.129
Speaker:
but he was basically a bad guy.

479
00:16:30.129 –> 00:16:33.620
Speaker:
Um, the stuff he was doing was,
pretty much horrible.

480
00:16:33.620 –> 00:16:38.879
Speaker:
But during this podcast, he
actually brings up, um,

481
00:16:38.879 –> 00:16:41.980
Speaker:
murdering Elizabeth Bannister.

482
00:16:41.980 –> 00:16:44.960
Speaker:
Um, and he goes into some
details about why he, you know,

483
00:16:44.960 –> 00:16:46.100
Speaker:
what he did exactly.

484
00:16:46.100 –> 00:16:49.019
Speaker:
And you know, he mentions her
name and that kind of thing.

485
00:16:49.019 –> 00:16:51.580
Speaker:
If we want to, I think I have it
queued up if we want to listen

486
00:16:51.580 –> 00:16:54.379
Speaker:
to some of what he says.

487
00:16:54.379 –> 00:16:54.820
Speaker:
Yeah.

488
00:16:54.820 –> 00:16:57.759
Speaker:
Um, I somebody was saying
something about like, um, a new

489
00:16:57.759 –> 00:17:02.139
Speaker:
law being passed in Indiana or
like semi new law where after

490
00:17:02.139 –> 00:17:06.019
Speaker:
like a certain length of time,
if like a family member can

491
00:17:06.019 –> 00:17:10.740
Speaker:
request that, um, a case be
either like given to somebody

492
00:17:10.740 –> 00:17:14.680
Speaker:
else or like not declared or
declared a cold case so that

493
00:17:14.680 –> 00:17:16.660
Speaker:
more information can get out.

494
00:17:16.660 –> 00:17:19.420
Speaker:
Um, I wonder if that’s something
that could happen.

495
00:17:19.420 –> 00:17:21.180
Speaker:
That’s something to definitely
look into.

496
00:17:21.180 –> 00:17:23.319
Speaker:
Um, so maybe if, uh, you know,

497
00:17:23.319 –> 00:17:25.220
Speaker:
the family, uh, Sarah in

498
00:17:25.220 –> 00:17:26.839
Speaker:
particular, maybe, uh, you know,

499
00:17:26.839 –> 00:17:27.960
Speaker:
something to think about because

500
00:17:27.960 –> 00:17:29.019
Speaker:
I actually, she’s actually

501
00:17:29.019 –> 00:17:30.869
Speaker:
agreed to talk to me on my for a

502
00:17:30.869 –> 00:17:31.710
Speaker:
future episode.

503
00:17:31.710 –> 00:17:33.710
Speaker:
Sarah, um, Elizabeth’s sister.

504
00:17:33.710 –> 00:17:36.029
Speaker:
So that might be something to
ask her.

505
00:17:36.029 –> 00:17:38.309
Speaker:
Yeah, for sure, because I was
holding off on interviewing her

506
00:17:38.309 –> 00:17:41.069
Speaker:
until after the FOIA information
came through, because I was

507
00:17:41.069 –> 00:17:43.750
Speaker:
hoping I’d get that and then be
able to kind of look through all

508
00:17:43.750 –> 00:17:46.269
Speaker:
that stuff and then have better
questions for her.

509
00:17:46.269 –> 00:17:48.109
Speaker:
But apparently that’s not going
to happen now.

510
00:17:48.109 –> 00:17:50.990
Speaker:
So. Well, that’d be cool if she
could get like that.

511
00:17:50.990 –> 00:17:52.869
Speaker:
Yeah, it would because I just, I

512
00:17:52.869 –> 00:17:53.710
Speaker:
mean, it’s been twenty five

513
00:17:53.710 –> 00:17:54.349
Speaker:
years.

514
00:17:54.349 –> 00:17:56.029
Speaker:
And also we have a confession.

515
00:17:56.029 –> 00:17:57.470
Speaker:
This guy is confessing, which it

516
00:17:57.470 –> 00:17:58.829
Speaker:
makes me think, too, that maybe

517
00:17:58.829 –> 00:18:00.769
Speaker:
they don’t buy his confession

518
00:18:00.769 –> 00:18:01.990
Speaker:
because if they, you know, they

519
00:18:01.990 –> 00:18:02.910
Speaker:
could close the case out and

520
00:18:02.910 –> 00:18:04.210
Speaker:
say, oh, yeah, serial killer

521
00:18:04.210 –> 00:18:05.589
Speaker:
just confessed it’s a closed

522
00:18:05.589 –> 00:18:06.750
Speaker:
case, but they’ve not closed the

523
00:18:06.750 –> 00:18:06.950
Speaker:
case.

524
00:18:06.950 –> 00:18:10.190
Speaker:
It’s still considered active
even though he has confessed.

525
00:18:10.190 –> 00:18:13.789
Speaker:
Um, also, Sarah does not, uh,
buy the confession as well.

526
00:18:13.789 –> 00:18:17.349
Speaker:
She’s come out and said that
she’s not satisfied that he

527
00:18:17.349 –> 00:18:19.349
Speaker:
actually did it.

528
00:18:19.349 –> 00:18:21.950
Speaker:
Well, like, what are the chances
that he would just be like, I

529
00:18:21.950 –> 00:18:24.589
Speaker:
mean, I don’t know if he was
like common to that area.

530
00:18:24.589 –> 00:18:27.390
Speaker:
Was he like, I don’t know, I
don’t think so.

531
00:18:27.390 –> 00:18:29.769
Speaker:
I don’t think that I’m not
aware.

532
00:18:29.769 –> 00:18:32.730
Speaker:
I mean, he didn’t have any other
killings in the Evansville area

533
00:18:32.730 –> 00:18:33.410
Speaker:
that I’m aware of.

534
00:18:33.410 –> 00:18:37.769
Speaker:
I mean, the thing is, he claims
he’s killed thirty three people.

535
00:18:37.769 –> 00:18:39.849
Speaker:
He’s been convicted of killing
three.

536
00:18:39.849 –> 00:18:43.049
Speaker:
So there are other people that
he claims are out there.

537
00:18:43.049 –> 00:18:44.650
Speaker:
And so that’s this Phil
Chalmers.

538
00:18:44.650 –> 00:18:48.569
Speaker:
His whole point of his podcast
was to talk to serial killers

539
00:18:48.569 –> 00:18:51.250
Speaker:
and convicted killers, to try to
get them to confess to other

540
00:18:51.250 –> 00:18:52.970
Speaker:
crimes they’ve committed.

541
00:18:52.970 –> 00:18:53.369
Speaker:
Oh, yeah.

542
00:18:53.369 –> 00:18:56.250
Speaker:
So which is it’s kind of
convenient.

543
00:18:56.250 –> 00:18:57.210
Speaker:
It was very first episode.

544
00:18:57.210 –> 00:19:00.210
Speaker:
He does find somebody who just
spills the beans on a. Yeah.

545
00:19:00.210 –> 00:19:00.569
Speaker:
Okay.

546
00:19:00.569 –> 00:19:03.730
Speaker:
So some people are very
suspicious of that.

547
00:19:03.730 –> 00:19:04.690
Speaker:
It’s very convenient.

548
00:19:04.690 –> 00:19:06.170
Speaker:
But the guy did say, I mean, it

549
00:19:06.170 –> 00:19:07.410
Speaker:
is recorded, it’s a recorded

550
00:19:07.410 –> 00:19:08.930
Speaker:
conversation, but a lot of these

551
00:19:08.930 –> 00:19:10.769
Speaker:
convicted killers do just they

552
00:19:10.769 –> 00:19:12.089
Speaker:
want attention and to be

553
00:19:12.089 –> 00:19:12.730
Speaker:
relevant.

554
00:19:12.730 –> 00:19:14.769
Speaker:
So maybe he’s just.

555
00:19:14.769 –> 00:19:16.410
Speaker:
Well, I think that you’re right.

556
00:19:16.410 –> 00:19:17.329
Speaker:
I think the police would

557
00:19:17.329 –> 00:19:20.369
Speaker:
probably have like a not it

558
00:19:20.369 –> 00:19:21.609
Speaker:
wouldn’t be a cold case anymore

559
00:19:21.609 –> 00:19:23.529
Speaker:
because they’d have a confession

560
00:19:23.529 –> 00:19:24.049
Speaker:
and.

561
00:19:25.130 –> 00:19:25.369
Speaker:
Yeah.

562
00:19:25.369 –> 00:19:26.049
Speaker:
Right.

563
00:19:26.049 –> 00:19:27.299
Speaker:
Exactly.

564
00:19:27.299 –> 00:19:32.099
Speaker:
Uh, so this is the part to
where, um, Phil is actually

565
00:19:32.099 –> 00:19:36.480
Speaker:
talking to, um, William Clyde
Gibson and his prison, I guess

566
00:19:36.480 –> 00:19:39.859
Speaker:
the prison about the case here.

567
00:19:40.900 –> 00:19:41.579
Speaker:
Hello.

568
00:19:41.579 –> 00:19:46.700
Speaker:
This is a prepaid call from
William Gibson, an inmate at the

569
00:19:46.700 –> 00:19:48.460
Speaker:
Indiana State Prison.

570
00:19:48.460 –> 00:19:49.940
Speaker:
Here’s what I want to ask you.

571
00:19:49.940 –> 00:19:53.339
Speaker:
Clyde, are you positive you
killed Elizabeth Bannister in

572
00:19:53.339 –> 00:19:57.660
Speaker:
Evansville, Indiana, which was a
very high profile case?

573
00:19:57.660 –> 00:19:59.180
Speaker:
Yes.

574
00:19:59.180 –> 00:20:01.180
Speaker:
Elizabeth Bannister is a cold

575
00:20:01.180 –> 00:20:03.200
Speaker:
case murder that dates back

576
00:20:03.200 –> 00:20:04.059
Speaker:
twenty years.

577
00:20:04.059 –> 00:20:05.940
Speaker:
So we know the details of the
case.

578
00:20:05.940 –> 00:20:07.500
Speaker:
We know that Elizabeth was

579
00:20:07.500 –> 00:20:09.140
Speaker:
killed inside of her home, which

580
00:20:09.140 –> 00:20:10.259
Speaker:
was split up into little

581
00:20:10.259 –> 00:20:11.180
Speaker:
apartments.

582
00:20:11.180 –> 00:20:12.940
Speaker:
We know she was stabbed to
death.

583
00:20:12.940 –> 00:20:14.180
Speaker:
We also know that the

584
00:20:14.180 –> 00:20:15.740
Speaker:
perpetrator escaped without

585
00:20:15.740 –> 00:20:16.420
Speaker:
being seen.

586
00:20:16.420 –> 00:20:18.160
Speaker:
My next step now is to talk to

587
00:20:18.160 –> 00:20:20.019
Speaker:
William Clyde Gibson and to see

588
00:20:20.019 –> 00:20:21.059
Speaker:
what he has to say about the

589
00:20:21.059 –> 00:20:23.039
Speaker:
case, and see if his story

590
00:20:23.039 –> 00:20:24.500
Speaker:
matches up with the story the

591
00:20:24.500 –> 00:20:26.349
Speaker:
media released.

592
00:20:26.349 –> 00:20:28.029
Speaker:
A lot of your crimes have to run
together.

593
00:20:28.029 –> 00:20:30.269
Speaker:
How do you know of her
specifically?

594
00:20:30.269 –> 00:20:31.470
Speaker:
Well, I just remember.

595
00:20:31.470 –> 00:20:34.109
Speaker:
But just mainly because of what
she looked like.

596
00:20:34.109 –> 00:20:35.950
Speaker:
How do you know that was her
name, though?

597
00:20:35.950 –> 00:20:37.349
Speaker:
Well, she told me her name when

598
00:20:37.349 –> 00:20:38.630
Speaker:
I first met her, and I just

599
00:20:38.630 –> 00:20:39.269
Speaker:
remembered.

600
00:20:39.269 –> 00:20:41.190
Speaker:
Okay, there’s a lot of details I

601
00:20:41.190 –> 00:20:43.109
Speaker:
don’t remember just because of

602
00:20:43.109 –> 00:20:43.670
Speaker:
the time.

603
00:20:43.670 –> 00:20:47.190
Speaker:
There’s so many other people
that I killed, it’s hard to keep

604
00:20:47.190 –> 00:20:48.309
Speaker:
it all in line.

605
00:20:48.309 –> 00:20:49.470
Speaker:
Was it a big case?

606
00:20:49.470 –> 00:20:51.390
Speaker:
Like, was it on the news and
stuff?

607
00:20:52.750 –> 00:20:56.190
Speaker:
Well, you know, I don’t really
know because I went back to New

608
00:20:56.190 –> 00:20:58.869
Speaker:
Orleans, so we don’t get much
news down there.

609
00:20:58.869 –> 00:20:59.869
Speaker:
You know what I mean?

610
00:21:01.150 –> 00:21:02.150
Speaker:
Walk me through it.

611
00:21:02.150 –> 00:21:05.549
Speaker:
You’re literally from the very
beginning moment you laid eyes

612
00:21:05.549 –> 00:21:06.750
Speaker:
on Elizabeth Bannister.

613
00:21:06.750 –> 00:21:07.589
Speaker:
Where how?

614
00:21:07.589 –> 00:21:10.589
Speaker:
I mean, walk me through the
whole story until you left.

615
00:21:10.589 –> 00:21:12.910
Speaker:
Well, like I said, I’ve just
seen her on the side of the road

616
00:21:12.910 –> 00:21:16.509
Speaker:
waving her hands and shit, just
wanting a ride.

617
00:21:16.509 –> 00:21:18.190
Speaker:
I picked her up, and then, you

618
00:21:18.190 –> 00:21:19.829
Speaker:
know that you you picked you up

619
00:21:19.829 –> 00:21:21.230
Speaker:
and you took her to her house,

620
00:21:21.230 –> 00:21:22.710
Speaker:
right?

621
00:21:22.710 –> 00:21:24.410
Speaker:
Right.

622
00:21:24.410 –> 00:21:26.289
Speaker:
as far as I can remember.

623
00:21:26.289 –> 00:21:29.210
Speaker:
I mean, like I said, I was, I
was stoned.

624
00:21:29.210 –> 00:21:30.130
Speaker:
What did I tell you?

625
00:21:30.130 –> 00:21:31.970
Speaker:
Might not be exactly correct,

626
00:21:31.970 –> 00:21:34.390
Speaker:
but I remember a great thing for

627
00:21:34.390 –> 00:21:35.690
Speaker:
some reason.

628
00:21:35.690 –> 00:21:38.130
Speaker:
I’m pretty sure that’s okay.

629
00:21:38.130 –> 00:21:41.690
Speaker:
But it was like a like a big
apartment type building or

630
00:21:41.690 –> 00:21:45.730
Speaker:
something like a house, but it
was a bunch of apartments.

631
00:21:45.730 –> 00:21:48.170
Speaker:
So that’s what it seemed like to
me.

632
00:21:48.170 –> 00:21:50.450
Speaker:
It was nighttime when we went.

633
00:21:50.450 –> 00:21:54.450
Speaker:
Yeah, I have, I can’t, I don’t
recall that much of it.

634
00:21:54.450 –> 00:21:57.890
Speaker:
And did you kind of walk into
the apartment with her?

635
00:21:57.890 –> 00:21:59.809
Speaker:
There was other people around
too.

636
00:21:59.809 –> 00:22:01.289
Speaker:
I mean, it wasn’t like, you

637
00:22:01.289 –> 00:22:03.690
Speaker:
know, it was incognito type

638
00:22:03.690 –> 00:22:04.130
Speaker:
stuff.

639
00:22:04.130 –> 00:22:06.210
Speaker:
I mean, you know, it was it was

640
00:22:06.210 –> 00:22:08.650
Speaker:
outside and shit, but it was

641
00:22:08.650 –> 00:22:09.170
Speaker:
just weird.

642
00:22:09.170 –> 00:22:11.089
Speaker:
I mean, it shouldn’t happen like

643
00:22:11.089 –> 00:22:13.869
Speaker:
that to me many times where I

644
00:22:13.869 –> 00:22:15.009
Speaker:
should have been caught, you

645
00:22:15.009 –> 00:22:15.450
Speaker:
know?

646
00:22:15.450 –> 00:22:16.130
Speaker:
Right.

647
00:22:17.410 –> 00:22:19.970
Speaker:
I just killed her and pretty
much left.

648
00:22:19.970 –> 00:22:25.980
Speaker:
I didn’t, I didn’t hack her up
and stabbed her up.

649
00:22:25.980 –> 00:22:27.019
Speaker:
You stabbed her?

650
00:22:28.019 –> 00:22:28.660
Speaker:
Mhm.

651
00:22:28.660 –> 00:22:29.460
Speaker:
So you’re just like.

652
00:22:29.460 –> 00:22:31.180
Speaker:
I kind of have the the feeling
I’m.

653
00:22:31.180 –> 00:22:32.220
Speaker:
I think I can kill this girl.

654
00:22:32.220 –> 00:22:33.740
Speaker:
I’m going to follow her in and
do this.

655
00:22:33.740 –> 00:22:34.299
Speaker:
Yeah.

656
00:22:34.299 –> 00:22:34.619
Speaker:
Yeah.

657
00:22:34.619 –> 00:22:37.059
Speaker:
I mean, that’s that’s how it
works.

658
00:22:37.059 –> 00:22:38.579
Speaker:
That’s how I did most of them.

659
00:22:38.579 –> 00:22:40.259
Speaker:
I mean, I just go out with that

660
00:22:40.259 –> 00:22:42.740
Speaker:
mindset and that’s what ended up

661
00:22:42.740 –> 00:22:43.539
Speaker:
happening.

662
00:22:43.539 –> 00:22:46.380
Speaker:
I never knew exactly who it was
going to be, you know.

663
00:22:46.380 –> 00:22:47.339
Speaker:
Right, right.

664
00:22:47.339 –> 00:22:49.220
Speaker:
Do you remember stabbing her and
where’d you stab her?

665
00:22:49.220 –> 00:22:50.420
Speaker:
And how many times?

666
00:22:50.420 –> 00:22:53.859
Speaker:
If I sit around and think about
it for a while, it might come

667
00:22:53.859 –> 00:22:54.579
Speaker:
back to me.

668
00:22:54.579 –> 00:22:57.500
Speaker:
I mean, I see, I see it in my
mind.

669
00:22:57.500 –> 00:22:58.220
Speaker:
You know what I mean?

670
00:22:58.220 –> 00:23:00.220
Speaker:
When you left, did anybody see
you leave?

671
00:23:01.539 –> 00:23:04.299
Speaker:
Well, I wasn’t really paying
attention, but I’m sure that

672
00:23:04.299 –> 00:23:05.940
Speaker:
people did see me leave.

673
00:23:05.940 –> 00:23:06.700
Speaker:
Got the hell out of there.

674
00:23:06.700 –> 00:23:09.059
Speaker:
Got in your truck and went home.

675
00:23:09.059 –> 00:23:09.700
Speaker:
Yeah.

676
00:23:12.579 –> 00:23:13.259
Speaker:
All right, so that’s.

677
00:23:13.259 –> 00:23:14.819
Speaker:
I mean, I could go on.

678
00:23:14.819 –> 00:23:16.539
Speaker:
You can listen to the rest of
the episode if you’d like.

679
00:23:16.539 –> 00:23:20.349
Speaker:
It’s actually pretty
interesting, but, um, I mean, so

680
00:23:20.349 –> 00:23:24.230
Speaker:
someone says, um, if he said he
killed her, why not believe him?

681
00:23:24.230 –> 00:23:25.430
Speaker:
Um, that’s a good question.

682
00:23:25.430 –> 00:23:27.589
Speaker:
Uh, Sarah, the sister doesn’t

683
00:23:27.589 –> 00:23:28.829
Speaker:
believe him because some of the

684
00:23:28.829 –> 00:23:30.470
Speaker:
details don’t line up with what

685
00:23:30.470 –> 00:23:31.910
Speaker:
apparently happened.

686
00:23:31.910 –> 00:23:32.269
Speaker:
Did.

687
00:23:32.269 –> 00:23:34.390
Speaker:
Was there a mirror that was
broken?

688
00:23:34.390 –> 00:23:36.029
Speaker:
That’s a good question, I don’t
know.

689
00:23:36.029 –> 00:23:38.190
Speaker:
Um, but that’s a very specific
thing to mention.

690
00:23:38.190 –> 00:23:39.869
Speaker:
If there maybe there was a
broken mirror.

691
00:23:39.869 –> 00:23:41.309
Speaker:
Again, there’s not much they

692
00:23:41.309 –> 00:23:42.829
Speaker:
haven’t released a lot about the

693
00:23:42.829 –> 00:23:43.630
Speaker:
case.

694
00:23:43.630 –> 00:23:45.349
Speaker:
The murder weapon, we assume was
a knife.

695
00:23:45.349 –> 00:23:45.710
Speaker:
It was.

696
00:23:45.710 –> 00:23:47.109
Speaker:
I don’t think it was ever found.

697
00:23:47.109 –> 00:23:49.910
Speaker:
I think they’re withholding some
of the information.

698
00:23:49.910 –> 00:23:52.789
Speaker:
Um, to see if, you know,
somebody does come forward.

699
00:23:52.789 –> 00:23:54.789
Speaker:
At some point, they might know
something and they don’t want to

700
00:23:54.789 –> 00:23:57.509
Speaker:
release everything, obviously,
because for that reason.

701
00:23:57.509 –> 00:23:59.910
Speaker:
But Sarah, I think Indiana.

702
00:23:59.910 –> 00:24:00.750
Speaker:
Exactly.

703
00:24:00.750 –> 00:24:04.509
Speaker:
Some of the information doesn’t
line up with whatever actually

704
00:24:04.509 –> 00:24:05.710
Speaker:
happened, according to Sarah.

705
00:24:05.710 –> 00:24:07.269
Speaker:
So I don’t know what that is.

706
00:24:07.269 –> 00:24:09.390
Speaker:
If. Well, is is he saying that

707
00:24:09.390 –> 00:24:10.990
Speaker:
he gave her a ride to her house

708
00:24:10.990 –> 00:24:12.470
Speaker:
and then went in with her and

709
00:24:12.470 –> 00:24:12.829
Speaker:
killed her?

710
00:24:12.829 –> 00:24:14.950
Speaker:
Because that’s like, not what
happened, right?

711
00:24:14.950 –> 00:24:17.150
Speaker:
Because she was at home
beforehand.

712
00:24:17.150 –> 00:24:19.000
Speaker:
Well, One thing, right?

713
00:24:19.000 –> 00:24:19.559
Speaker:
She was at home.

714
00:24:19.559 –> 00:24:21.359
Speaker:
So one thing that could have
happened is where she was

715
00:24:21.359 –> 00:24:23.880
Speaker:
hailing or, you know, waiting
for a cab on the corner.

716
00:24:23.880 –> 00:24:26.559
Speaker:
Maybe he drove by and saw her
there.

717
00:24:26.559 –> 00:24:29.680
Speaker:
Um. Oh it didn’t this wasn’t

718
00:24:29.680 –> 00:24:31.599
Speaker:
discussed in, but she apparently

719
00:24:31.599 –> 00:24:33.119
Speaker:
was prostituting at that time

720
00:24:33.119 –> 00:24:33.880
Speaker:
too.

721
00:24:33.880 –> 00:24:35.799
Speaker:
So I don’t know if he picked her
up for that reason.

722
00:24:35.799 –> 00:24:40.099
Speaker:
And under that circumstance, um,
he, she was bringing him back

723
00:24:40.099 –> 00:24:43.940
Speaker:
under those circumstances, but
apparently she had called a cab

724
00:24:43.940 –> 00:24:45.440
Speaker:
but didn’t make it to the cab.

725
00:24:45.440 –> 00:24:48.279
Speaker:
So I don’t know if she was
standing outside and he happened

726
00:24:48.279 –> 00:24:49.119
Speaker:
to see her.

727
00:24:50.119 –> 00:24:51.680
Speaker:
You know, that’s not clear.

728
00:24:51.680 –> 00:24:54.559
Speaker:
So was he like a big rig truck
driver?

729
00:24:54.559 –> 00:24:56.039
Speaker:
Um, that I don’t know.

730
00:24:56.039 –> 00:24:56.799
Speaker:
I don’t think he was.

731
00:24:56.799 –> 00:24:58.839
Speaker:
I think I’m not aware that he
was a truck driver.

732
00:24:58.839 –> 00:25:00.720
Speaker:
I just think he was out.

733
00:25:00.720 –> 00:25:02.720
Speaker:
Oh, he was just, like, in a
truck driving.

734
00:25:02.720 –> 00:25:04.519
Speaker:
And then she held him.

735
00:25:04.519 –> 00:25:06.680
Speaker:
I get it, yeah.

736
00:25:06.680 –> 00:25:07.359
Speaker:
Um.

737
00:25:07.359 –> 00:25:07.640
Speaker:
Sarah.

738
00:25:07.640 –> 00:25:08.960
Speaker:
Sarah doesn’t believe it.

739
00:25:08.960 –> 00:25:11.400
Speaker:
Um, after talking.

740
00:25:12.759 –> 00:25:14.559
Speaker:
After talking to him, do you
believe his story?

741
00:25:14.559 –> 00:25:18.940
Speaker:
What’s your feeling after
talking to, I think he’s he’s

742
00:25:18.940 –> 00:25:21.440
Speaker:
talking about like that
interview after like listening

743
00:25:21.440 –> 00:25:25.819
Speaker:
to that interview, you know, I
don’t know why someone would

744
00:25:25.819 –> 00:25:27.420
Speaker:
make up something so random.

745
00:25:27.420 –> 00:25:29.660
Speaker:
It seems so specific to me.

746
00:25:29.660 –> 00:25:30.859
Speaker:
I would be leaning towards that.

747
00:25:30.859 –> 00:25:31.779
Speaker:
He did it like, I don’t know

748
00:25:31.779 –> 00:25:33.619
Speaker:
what he has to gain by bringing

749
00:25:33.619 –> 00:25:34.940
Speaker:
up Elizabeth Bannister, of all

750
00:25:34.940 –> 00:25:35.819
Speaker:
people, because it really

751
00:25:35.819 –> 00:25:37.740
Speaker:
wasn’t, uh, it’s kind of a

752
00:25:37.740 –> 00:25:38.259
Speaker:
random case.

753
00:25:38.259 –> 00:25:41.460
Speaker:
It’s not like some sort of
prolific case everyone’s been

754
00:25:41.460 –> 00:25:43.019
Speaker:
talking about for twenty years.

755
00:25:43.019 –> 00:25:44.220
Speaker:
It’s something.

756
00:25:44.220 –> 00:25:47.619
Speaker:
But was it a big case at the
time?

757
00:25:47.619 –> 00:25:48.339
Speaker:
It just wasn’t.

758
00:25:48.339 –> 00:25:51.420
Speaker:
I think some of these it was a
kind of a bizarre case, but it

759
00:25:51.420 –> 00:25:52.180
Speaker:
didn’t get a lot.

760
00:25:52.180 –> 00:25:53.180
Speaker:
It wasn’t like a national.

761
00:25:53.180 –> 00:25:54.460
Speaker:
I don’t understand why this one

762
00:25:54.460 –> 00:25:56.599
Speaker:
isn’t like a Dateline NBC forty

763
00:25:56.599 –> 00:25:58.980
Speaker:
eight hours kind of high profile

764
00:25:58.980 –> 00:25:59.460
Speaker:
case.

765
00:25:59.460 –> 00:26:00.559
Speaker:
Like I could see Nancy Grace,

766
00:26:00.559 –> 00:26:01.940
Speaker:
like going crazy on something

767
00:26:01.940 –> 00:26:02.900
Speaker:
like this.

768
00:26:02.900 –> 00:26:05.660
Speaker:
I mean, you have all these
suspects and just the craziness

769
00:26:05.660 –> 00:26:08.460
Speaker:
of it, but it really wasn’t, um,
she was just murdered.

770
00:26:08.460 –> 00:26:12.059
Speaker:
And, you know, police just, I
think for people like that who

771
00:26:12.059 –> 00:26:14.944
Speaker:
are kind of living on the
outskirts of society, they don’t

772
00:26:14.944 –> 00:26:18.349
Speaker:
get a lot of, you know, if she
had come from a wealthy family,

773
00:26:18.349 –> 00:26:19.430
Speaker:
probably she’d have.

774
00:26:19.430 –> 00:26:22.309
Speaker:
This has gotten a lot more
attention, right?

775
00:26:22.309 –> 00:26:24.109
Speaker:
To be honest, it just didn’t.

776
00:26:24.109 –> 00:26:25.349
Speaker:
Well, he said that there was

777
00:26:25.349 –> 00:26:26.829
Speaker:
people all around when they went

778
00:26:26.829 –> 00:26:27.470
Speaker:
in, right?

779
00:26:27.470 –> 00:26:27.789
Speaker:
Like.

780
00:26:27.789 –> 00:26:27.950
Speaker:
Right.

781
00:26:27.950 –> 00:26:29.869
Speaker:
And nobody says nobody saw
anything.

782
00:26:29.869 –> 00:26:33.190
Speaker:
I mean, they have to believe the
police must really believe all

783
00:26:33.190 –> 00:26:36.470
Speaker:
of the people in the house, or I
could I cannot imagine that

784
00:26:36.470 –> 00:26:38.829
Speaker:
they’d all all be lying.

785
00:26:38.829 –> 00:26:42.390
Speaker:
Um, and having seen this killer
come in, it seems like somebody

786
00:26:42.390 –> 00:26:43.910
Speaker:
would have said, oh, yeah, we
saw this guy.

787
00:26:43.910 –> 00:26:44.630
Speaker:
And the fact that he.

788
00:26:44.630 –> 00:26:47.150
Speaker:
For sure, I don’t know if, you
know, somebody could have seen

789
00:26:47.150 –> 00:26:47.589
Speaker:
me or not.

790
00:26:47.589 –> 00:26:48.789
Speaker:
It seems like you’d remember if

791
00:26:48.789 –> 00:26:50.049
Speaker:
somebody saw you after you

792
00:26:50.049 –> 00:26:50.829
Speaker:
murdered somebody.

793
00:26:50.829 –> 00:26:52.950
Speaker:
Like it seems like that would
stick in your head like, oh,

794
00:26:52.950 –> 00:26:56.549
Speaker:
yeah, there was a guy standing
there and he’d be like, drenched

795
00:26:56.549 –> 00:26:59.789
Speaker:
in blood, probably, you know?

796
00:26:59.789 –> 00:27:00.630
Speaker:
Right.

797
00:27:00.630 –> 00:27:04.349
Speaker:
Um, but these people who were in
this house, I think it’s again,

798
00:27:04.349 –> 00:27:05.109
Speaker:
kind of like you.

799
00:27:05.109 –> 00:27:07.109
Speaker:
You were saying it’s kind of a
seedy neighborhood.

800
00:27:07.109 –> 00:27:10.109
Speaker:
And I, I don’t think these are,
you know, people up late

801
00:27:10.109 –> 00:27:11.509
Speaker:
studying kind of people.

802
00:27:11.509 –> 00:27:15.079
Speaker:
They’re probably all Drunken
high or whatever.

803
00:27:15.079 –> 00:27:17.559
Speaker:
So yeah, they might have just.

804
00:27:17.559 –> 00:27:19.799
Speaker:
If they did see something,
they’re not they weren’t paying.

805
00:27:19.799 –> 00:27:20.279
Speaker:
Attention.

806
00:27:20.279 –> 00:27:22.400
Speaker:
I don’t know, it’s just a sad
situation.

807
00:27:22.400 –> 00:27:24.759
Speaker:
Um, Sarah doesn’t buy it.

808
00:27:24.759 –> 00:27:27.279
Speaker:
Um, so the and the case is still
active.

809
00:27:27.279 –> 00:27:28.119
Speaker:
It’s not closed.

810
00:27:28.119 –> 00:27:30.400
Speaker:
So I don’t think the police

811
00:27:30.400 –> 00:27:31.839
Speaker:
necessarily buy his story

812
00:27:31.839 –> 00:27:32.640
Speaker:
either.

813
00:27:33.680 –> 00:27:34.359
Speaker:
Yeah.

814
00:27:34.359 –> 00:27:39.079
Speaker:
I mean, that mirror detail would
definitely like, like be

815
00:27:39.079 –> 00:27:41.460
Speaker:
something that they would be
able to check or they would

816
00:27:41.460 –> 00:27:43.720
Speaker:
like, know about, you know?

817
00:27:43.720 –> 00:27:44.079
Speaker:
Yeah.

818
00:27:44.079 –> 00:27:47.240
Speaker:
I mean, to me that’s like an, if
there was a, a weird mirror that

819
00:27:47.240 –> 00:27:50.279
Speaker:
had broken or something that
would be a case closed situation

820
00:27:50.279 –> 00:27:52.720
Speaker:
in my mind, like what are the
chances that he knows about a

821
00:27:52.720 –> 00:27:54.640
Speaker:
mirror that was broken?

822
00:27:54.640 –> 00:27:57.759
Speaker:
Um, was she killed in the
bathroom or in her room?

823
00:27:57.759 –> 00:28:02.400
Speaker:
I don’t know, I. Sarah had
mentioned in, um, in a podcast

824
00:28:02.400 –> 00:28:04.400
Speaker:
that she was up in her room.

825
00:28:04.400 –> 00:28:05.759
Speaker:
So she mentioned that somebody

826
00:28:05.759 –> 00:28:06.779
Speaker:
would have had to have come in

827
00:28:06.779 –> 00:28:08.640
Speaker:
two doors in the bottom door and

828
00:28:08.640 –> 00:28:09.960
Speaker:
then gone upstairs and then gone

829
00:28:09.960 –> 00:28:11.619
Speaker:
into her bedroom or her

830
00:28:11.619 –> 00:28:12.740
Speaker:
apartment.

831
00:28:12.740 –> 00:28:14.940
Speaker:
Oh, I think she was killed in

832
00:28:14.940 –> 00:28:15.900
Speaker:
her apartment, which was

833
00:28:15.900 –> 00:28:16.420
Speaker:
upstairs.

834
00:28:16.420 –> 00:28:17.839
Speaker:
So it’s not like somebody

835
00:28:17.839 –> 00:28:20.299
Speaker:
staggered in and randomly killed

836
00:28:20.299 –> 00:28:20.500
Speaker:
her.

837
00:28:20.500 –> 00:28:23.220
Speaker:
They would have had to have gone
to her apartment.

838
00:28:23.220 –> 00:28:23.900
Speaker:
Um.

839
00:28:23.900 –> 00:28:24.180
Speaker:
Right.

840
00:28:24.180 –> 00:28:25.720
Speaker:
And what I understand about the

841
00:28:25.720 –> 00:28:27.380
Speaker:
house is that there was like a

842
00:28:27.380 –> 00:28:28.859
Speaker:
communal bathroom.

843
00:28:28.859 –> 00:28:30.900
Speaker:
And then each of like the then

844
00:28:30.900 –> 00:28:32.460
Speaker:
there was like little apartments

845
00:28:32.460 –> 00:28:33.099
Speaker:
throughout.

846
00:28:33.099 –> 00:28:34.019
Speaker:
Right?

847
00:28:34.019 –> 00:28:34.539
Speaker:
Right.

848
00:28:34.539 –> 00:28:36.660
Speaker:
It had been converted to
multiple apartments.

849
00:28:36.660 –> 00:28:38.940
Speaker:
So but they all shared one
bathroom.

850
00:28:38.940 –> 00:28:41.779
Speaker:
So, you know, people are coming,
coming and going all the time.

851
00:28:41.779 –> 00:28:45.900
Speaker:
I assume that would be an
interesting living situation.

852
00:28:45.900 –> 00:28:48.240
Speaker:
So. And then and then her mom’s

853
00:28:48.240 –> 00:28:49.700
Speaker:
ex-boyfriend slash her

854
00:28:49.700 –> 00:28:52.119
Speaker:
boyfriend, he lived in the same

855
00:28:52.119 –> 00:28:54.579
Speaker:
apartment thing, but didn’t she

856
00:28:54.579 –> 00:28:55.859
Speaker:
also have an ex-boyfriend that

857
00:28:55.859 –> 00:28:56.660
Speaker:
lived there?

858
00:28:56.660 –> 00:28:57.259
Speaker:
Yeah.

859
00:28:57.259 –> 00:29:00.019
Speaker:
So some of the early reports
were, I think people were

860
00:29:00.019 –> 00:29:01.819
Speaker:
confused on the relationships.

861
00:29:01.819 –> 00:29:04.579
Speaker:
I think because some of the
reports say, oh, yeah, an

862
00:29:04.579 –> 00:29:07.500
Speaker:
ex-boyfriend and her mom’s
ex-boyfriend lived there.

863
00:29:07.500 –> 00:29:09.460
Speaker:
That was the same person.

864
00:29:09.460 –> 00:29:10.109
Speaker:
I think.

865
00:29:10.109 –> 00:29:13.349
Speaker:
I don’t think her she had an ex
living there along with the guy

866
00:29:13.349 –> 00:29:17.190
Speaker:
she was dating, Mark, who was
her mom’s ex, but they have not

867
00:29:17.190 –> 00:29:19.349
Speaker:
released who these other people
in the house were.

868
00:29:19.349 –> 00:29:20.509
Speaker:
Um, so I don’t know.

869
00:29:21.670 –> 00:29:25.230
Speaker:
And then like the guy that came
over to or that gave her money

870
00:29:25.230 –> 00:29:29.190
Speaker:
for the that I think maybe
that’s like he was getting drugs

871
00:29:29.190 –> 00:29:33.089
Speaker:
or getting like, uh, like paying
for sex or something because

872
00:29:33.089 –> 00:29:35.869
Speaker:
like, why would he come over and
give her money for the payphone

873
00:29:35.869 –> 00:29:39.869
Speaker:
and then leave and then come
back to check or something like

874
00:29:39.869 –> 00:29:41.269
Speaker:
that doesn’t sound right.

875
00:29:41.269 –> 00:29:43.950
Speaker:
That sounds like a story to me
of some kind.

876
00:29:43.950 –> 00:29:46.990
Speaker:
Like he was buying like, I agree
there was something else there.

877
00:29:46.990 –> 00:29:48.029
Speaker:
Like, why would you give some I

878
00:29:48.029 –> 00:29:49.289
Speaker:
mean, what is a phone call like

879
00:29:49.289 –> 00:29:50.549
Speaker:
a quarter at the time or

880
00:29:50.549 –> 00:29:50.910
Speaker:
something?

881
00:29:50.910 –> 00:29:53.730
Speaker:
Like when I came back, she’s
going to get it back like

882
00:29:53.730 –> 00:29:56.609
Speaker:
afterwards, like she had the
money she would already like,

883
00:29:56.609 –> 00:29:58.470
Speaker:
why would she what did he think
she was doing?

884
00:29:58.470 –> 00:30:01.130
Speaker:
Maybe she, he thought she was
going to be earning some money

885
00:30:01.130 –> 00:30:03.029
Speaker:
doing something, and then he was
going to come back and get the

886
00:30:03.029 –> 00:30:06.390
Speaker:
money, maybe see something about
that doesn’t make any sense.

887
00:30:06.390 –> 00:30:07.230
Speaker:
Yeah, definitely.

888
00:30:07.230 –> 00:30:09.039
Speaker:
And why would he come back to
check on her?

889
00:30:09.039 –> 00:30:10.000
Speaker:
Like what?

890
00:30:10.000 –> 00:30:11.920
Speaker:
I hope the police ask these
questions.

891
00:30:11.920 –> 00:30:12.720
Speaker:
That’s all I have to say.

892
00:30:12.720 –> 00:30:14.680
Speaker:
Like, why did you think you
needed to?

893
00:30:14.680 –> 00:30:17.440
Speaker:
Like, if I let someone borrow a
dollar or whatever, it was like,

894
00:30:17.440 –> 00:30:21.579
Speaker:
I’m not going to at one o’clock
in the morning, go to check on

895
00:30:21.579 –> 00:30:22.599
Speaker:
them an hour later.

896
00:30:22.599 –> 00:30:23.960
Speaker:
Oh, is everything still okay?

897
00:30:23.960 –> 00:30:25.920
Speaker:
You know, why would I do that?

898
00:30:25.920 –> 00:30:28.559
Speaker:
Yeah, that doesn’t make it
doesn’t make sense.

899
00:30:28.559 –> 00:30:29.640
Speaker:
But again, we’re dealing with

900
00:30:29.640 –> 00:30:30.880
Speaker:
some probably some interesting

901
00:30:30.880 –> 00:30:31.680
Speaker:
people here.

902
00:30:31.680 –> 00:30:33.599
Speaker:
Um, so Sarah, later on, like

903
00:30:33.599 –> 00:30:35.519
Speaker:
when she turns eighteen, starts

904
00:30:35.519 –> 00:30:37.079
Speaker:
investigating herself, like,

905
00:30:37.079 –> 00:30:38.160
Speaker:
she’s like, she wants to find

906
00:30:38.160 –> 00:30:39.279
Speaker:
the answers.

907
00:30:39.279 –> 00:30:40.640
Speaker:
So she goes back to the house.

908
00:30:40.640 –> 00:30:43.039
Speaker:
Of course, the house has been,
you know, knocked down.

909
00:30:43.039 –> 00:30:43.720
Speaker:
It’s a vacant lot.

910
00:30:43.720 –> 00:30:44.759
Speaker:
But she goes around to the

911
00:30:44.759 –> 00:30:46.039
Speaker:
neighbors and starts asking them

912
00:30:46.039 –> 00:30:46.480
Speaker:
questions.

913
00:30:46.480 –> 00:30:48.519
Speaker:
And one of the neighbors that

914
00:30:48.519 –> 00:30:49.920
Speaker:
was living there at the time was

915
00:30:49.920 –> 00:30:51.359
Speaker:
still there.

916
00:30:51.359 –> 00:30:53.759
Speaker:
So she was asking him questions.

917
00:30:53.759 –> 00:30:58.220
Speaker:
And he said he distinctly
remembers Elizabeth arguing with

918
00:30:58.220 –> 00:31:01.000
Speaker:
Mark in the yard that night.

919
00:31:01.000 –> 00:31:02.720
Speaker:
But Mark was working.

920
00:31:02.720 –> 00:31:04.400
Speaker:
So this is what the neighbor is
saying.

921
00:31:04.400 –> 00:31:05.559
Speaker:
He he knew Mark?

922
00:31:05.559 –> 00:31:07.380
Speaker:
Apparently so.

923
00:31:07.380 –> 00:31:10.900
Speaker:
I don’t know whether there’s any
if that’s believable or not.

924
00:31:10.900 –> 00:31:12.259
Speaker:
I have no idea.

925
00:31:12.259 –> 00:31:13.220
Speaker:
Well, I can’t decide if.

926
00:31:13.220 –> 00:31:16.539
Speaker:
I just don’t like Mark because
of what he did to like her

927
00:31:16.539 –> 00:31:18.339
Speaker:
little sisters and stuff.

928
00:31:18.339 –> 00:31:22.460
Speaker:
Or if, you know, because like,
that’s, that’s a person that I’m

929
00:31:22.460 –> 00:31:23.980
Speaker:
like, oh, yeah, he did it.

930
00:31:23.980 –> 00:31:27.099
Speaker:
He’s obviously a piece of crap,
you know, like, right.

931
00:31:27.099 –> 00:31:28.859
Speaker:
But I mean, there’s no shortage

932
00:31:28.859 –> 00:31:30.259
Speaker:
of reasons to not not like this

933
00:31:30.259 –> 00:31:30.859
Speaker:
guy.

934
00:31:30.859 –> 00:31:34.099
Speaker:
Um, but whether or not he did
it, I mean, the police

935
00:31:34.099 –> 00:31:38.940
Speaker:
apparently have they checked out
his alibi and they, they he’s

936
00:31:38.940 –> 00:31:40.140
Speaker:
he’s not a suspect.

937
00:31:40.140 –> 00:31:40.700
Speaker:
Apparently.

938
00:31:40.700 –> 00:31:44.420
Speaker:
For that reason, I would like to
dig into more about his alibi.

939
00:31:44.420 –> 00:31:45.940
Speaker:
Like what?

940
00:31:45.940 –> 00:31:47.099
Speaker:
What did he say he was doing?

941
00:31:47.099 –> 00:31:49.140
Speaker:
And is it possible to, like, you

942
00:31:49.140 –> 00:31:51.339
Speaker:
know, fudge those records or

943
00:31:51.339 –> 00:31:52.500
Speaker:
whatever to say he was, you

944
00:31:52.500 –> 00:31:53.700
Speaker:
know, or did he pay somebody off

945
00:31:53.700 –> 00:31:54.660
Speaker:
to say he was there and he

946
00:31:54.660 –> 00:31:55.819
Speaker:
wasn’t?

947
00:31:55.819 –> 00:31:56.819
Speaker:
Yeah.

948
00:31:56.819 –> 00:31:59.619
Speaker:
Because it just I know he’s not
a suspect and he was apparently

949
00:31:59.619 –> 00:32:01.819
Speaker:
working, but he’s got to be at
the top of the list.

950
00:32:01.819 –> 00:32:03.180
Speaker:
Then you have the serial killer

951
00:32:03.180 –> 00:32:04.644
Speaker:
coming forward saying he did it

952
00:32:04.644 –> 00:32:04.950
Speaker:
too.

953
00:32:04.950 –> 00:32:06.349
Speaker:
So do you.

954
00:32:06.349 –> 00:32:10.710
Speaker:
Did did he volunteer that, like
without the podcast or bringing

955
00:32:10.710 –> 00:32:13.109
Speaker:
it up, or did the podcaster
like, bring it up?

956
00:32:13.109 –> 00:32:16.910
Speaker:
He randomly brought it up in the
middle of the episode like he’s

957
00:32:16.910 –> 00:32:20.390
Speaker:
so he, the podcaster did.

958
00:32:20.390 –> 00:32:22.950
Speaker:
Had never heard of Elizabeth
Bannister before.

959
00:32:22.950 –> 00:32:25.170
Speaker:
So in the middle of the podcast,

960
00:32:25.170 –> 00:32:26.230
Speaker:
he’s talking about the other

961
00:32:26.230 –> 00:32:27.230
Speaker:
three murders, which are

962
00:32:27.230 –> 00:32:27.789
Speaker:
horrible.

963
00:32:27.789 –> 00:32:29.269
Speaker:
By the way, if you, if you’re,

964
00:32:29.269 –> 00:32:30.410
Speaker:
if you’re wanting to listen to

965
00:32:30.410 –> 00:32:30.710
Speaker:
those.

966
00:32:30.710 –> 00:32:31.990
Speaker:
But they’re just horrible.

967
00:32:31.990 –> 00:32:37.029
Speaker:
But he, he starts digging for
other cold case.

968
00:32:37.029 –> 00:32:38.349
Speaker:
You know, for him to drop hints

969
00:32:38.349 –> 00:32:39.509
Speaker:
about things and he, he just

970
00:32:39.509 –> 00:32:41.190
Speaker:
drops Elizabeth Bannister’s name

971
00:32:41.190 –> 00:32:41.589
Speaker:
randomly.

972
00:32:41.589 –> 00:32:42.390
Speaker:
He didn’t expect it.

973
00:32:42.390 –> 00:32:44.390
Speaker:
He was like, is this guy just
feeding me full.

974
00:32:44.390 –> 00:32:46.349
Speaker:
Is he just feeding me crap?

975
00:32:46.349 –> 00:32:49.269
Speaker:
So he googles Elizabeth
Bannister and finds out there is

976
00:32:49.269 –> 00:32:51.150
Speaker:
a cold case out of Evansville.

977
00:32:51.150 –> 00:32:53.150
Speaker:
And he’s like, oh, maybe he’s on
to something here.

978
00:32:53.150 –> 00:32:54.829
Speaker:
And he just goes on from there.

979
00:32:54.829 –> 00:32:57.950
Speaker:
So he did not like, um, go into
it thinking, oh, I’m gonna see

980
00:32:57.950 –> 00:32:59.910
Speaker:
if I can get him talking about
Elizabeth Bannister or anything.

981
00:32:59.910 –> 00:33:01.509
Speaker:
He brought it up himself.

982
00:33:04.279 –> 00:33:07.480
Speaker:
I mean, he could have googled it
or found cold cases and just

983
00:33:07.480 –> 00:33:11.440
Speaker:
randomly, you know, landed on
that one, I guess.

984
00:33:11.440 –> 00:33:12.720
Speaker:
But it’d be strange.

985
00:33:12.720 –> 00:33:15.200
Speaker:
But I don’t know what to think.

986
00:33:15.200 –> 00:33:17.160
Speaker:
It’s, it’s one of these things
that you can kind of convince

987
00:33:17.160 –> 00:33:20.720
Speaker:
yourself of multiple people
having done this.

988
00:33:20.720 –> 00:33:23.759
Speaker:
Well, I mean, any of those
people, it seems like the the

989
00:33:23.759 –> 00:33:27.799
Speaker:
cops like would have moved
forward on it if they’re if it’s

990
00:33:27.799 –> 00:33:32.119
Speaker:
still an active investigation,
you know, and I’ve gone down

991
00:33:32.119 –> 00:33:33.279
Speaker:
some rabbit holes myself.

992
00:33:33.279 –> 00:33:34.839
Speaker:
I’ve there are ways to find out

993
00:33:34.839 –> 00:33:36.279
Speaker:
who lived in certain places at

994
00:33:36.279 –> 00:33:37.559
Speaker:
certain times.

995
00:33:37.559 –> 00:33:39.000
Speaker:
So I’ve gone through lists of

996
00:33:39.000 –> 00:33:40.240
Speaker:
people who I think might have

997
00:33:40.240 –> 00:33:41.200
Speaker:
been living there at that time

998
00:33:41.200 –> 00:33:42.859
Speaker:
and like done background

999
00:33:42.859 –> 00:33:44.039
Speaker:
searches to find out if there

1000
00:33:44.039 –> 00:33:44.839
Speaker:
were someone who was there who

1001
00:33:44.839 –> 00:33:46.220
Speaker:
was like, who’s got some sort of

1002
00:33:46.220 –> 00:33:47.619
Speaker:
seedy history that would be

1003
00:33:47.619 –> 00:33:48.279
Speaker:
flagging me.

1004
00:33:48.279 –> 00:33:49.839
Speaker:
But, you know, it’s easy to get

1005
00:33:49.839 –> 00:33:51.160
Speaker:
lost down these rabbit holes

1006
00:33:51.160 –> 00:33:52.960
Speaker:
and, and you don’t know what

1007
00:33:52.960 –> 00:33:54.000
Speaker:
you’re really going to find

1008
00:33:54.000 –> 00:33:54.440
Speaker:
anyway.

1009
00:33:54.440 –> 00:33:56.839
Speaker:
But, um, because the truth is,

1010
00:33:56.839 –> 00:33:58.599
Speaker:
the people who rent these sorts

1011
00:33:58.599 –> 00:34:01.005
Speaker:
of rooms are, are not model

1012
00:34:01.005 –> 00:34:02.009
Speaker:
citizens.

1013
00:34:02.009 –> 00:34:05.529
Speaker:
So almost all of them have like
serious records.

1014
00:34:05.529 –> 00:34:08.210
Speaker:
Um, because they, they need
cheap places to live.

1015
00:34:08.210 –> 00:34:10.210
Speaker:
And, you know, she probably
accepted cash or something.

1016
00:34:10.210 –> 00:34:10.929
Speaker:
I mean, you know what I mean?

1017
00:34:10.929 –> 00:34:14.530
Speaker:
Like it’s a certain kind of
person is attracted to those

1018
00:34:14.530 –> 00:34:15.250
Speaker:
kinds of places.

1019
00:34:15.250 –> 00:34:18.329
Speaker:
So it’s, you know, it’s hard to
kind of nail down who might be a

1020
00:34:18.329 –> 00:34:20.530
Speaker:
suspect or who even was in the
house at that time.

1021
00:34:20.530 –> 00:34:23.329
Speaker:
I have to think that the owner
of the house, the seventy year

1022
00:34:23.329 –> 00:34:25.010
Speaker:
old lady, might have been one
of, I don’t know if she was one

1023
00:34:25.010 –> 00:34:27.210
Speaker:
of the three or if she was in
the basement and not even

1024
00:34:27.210 –> 00:34:29.010
Speaker:
considered being there.

1025
00:34:29.010 –> 00:34:31.130
Speaker:
I’m kind of confused on that.

1026
00:34:31.130 –> 00:34:32.389
Speaker:
I don’t know, it’s kind of like

1027
00:34:32.389 –> 00:34:34.269
Speaker:
funny to think of, I don’t know,

1028
00:34:34.269 –> 00:34:35.250
Speaker:
like an old lady in the

1029
00:34:35.250 –> 00:34:35.650
Speaker:
basement.

1030
00:34:35.650 –> 00:34:39.130
Speaker:
But it really, it really is.

1031
00:34:39.130 –> 00:34:41.530
Speaker:
The whole situation is just
bizarre.

1032
00:34:41.530 –> 00:34:44.690
Speaker:
Um, yeah, it really is.

1033
00:34:44.690 –> 00:34:45.489
Speaker:
I don’t know.

1034
00:34:45.489 –> 00:34:47.829
Speaker:
Uh, if you have any questions or

1035
00:34:47.829 –> 00:34:51.250
Speaker:
anyone in the chat does, um, let

1036
00:34:51.250 –> 00:34:51.849
Speaker:
me see.

1037
00:34:51.849 –> 00:34:53.409
Speaker:
Sorry.

1038
00:34:53.409 –> 00:34:56.449
Speaker:
Oh, it’s Evansdale and
Evansville.

1039
00:34:56.449 –> 00:34:57.849
Speaker:
Evansville.

1040
00:34:57.849 –> 00:34:59.869
Speaker:
That is a little confusing.

1041
00:34:59.869 –> 00:35:00.190
Speaker:
Yeah.

1042
00:35:00.190 –> 00:35:02.590
Speaker:
Evansville is in southern
Indiana.

1043
00:35:02.590 –> 00:35:04.190
Speaker:
Where’s Evansdale?

1044
00:35:04.190 –> 00:35:06.190
Speaker:
I’m not sure where Evansdale is.

1045
00:35:06.190 –> 00:35:06.989
Speaker:
Let me look.

1046
00:35:08.030 –> 00:35:08.789
Speaker:
Iowa.

1047
00:35:08.789 –> 00:35:10.710
Speaker:
Apparently, Evansdale is in
Iowa.

1048
00:35:12.030 –> 00:35:12.789
Speaker:
Interesting.

1049
00:35:12.789 –> 00:35:16.469
Speaker:
Um, well, yeah, I guess like

1050
00:35:16.469 –> 00:35:20.050
Speaker:
with that case, I would say that

1051
00:35:20.050 –> 00:35:22.030
Speaker:
that, um.

1052
00:35:22.030 –> 00:35:23.929
Speaker:
Yeah, this person said probably

1053
00:35:23.929 –> 00:35:28.530
Speaker:
walking from or to the payphone,

1054
00:35:28.530 –> 00:35:30.090
Speaker:
like that guy could have like

1055
00:35:30.090 –> 00:35:31.389
Speaker:
picked her up, I think is what

1056
00:35:31.389 –> 00:35:32.349
Speaker:
they’re saying.

1057
00:35:33.590 –> 00:35:34.630
Speaker:
Um, and she had only lived.

1058
00:35:34.630 –> 00:35:36.510
Speaker:
I’m kind of looking through my
notes here.

1059
00:35:36.510 –> 00:35:38.510
Speaker:
Um, she had dropped out of high
school.

1060
00:35:38.510 –> 00:35:39.670
Speaker:
She didn’t finish high school.

1061
00:35:39.670 –> 00:35:42.789
Speaker:
She had, um, she worked at
rallies, which is like a fast

1062
00:35:42.789 –> 00:35:45.989
Speaker:
food restaurant in Evansville
and the west side of Evansville.

1063
00:35:45.989 –> 00:35:49.250
Speaker:
Prior to her, a few months prior
to her death, she had worked,

1064
00:35:49.250 –> 00:35:51.070
Speaker:
um, at rallies.

1065
00:35:51.070 –> 00:35:51.909
Speaker:
According to one of her

1066
00:35:51.909 –> 00:35:53.190
Speaker:
coworkers who was apparently a

1067
00:35:53.190 –> 00:35:55.230
Speaker:
friend of hers, she only lived

1068
00:35:55.230 –> 00:35:56.750
Speaker:
there at the apartment for a few

1069
00:35:56.750 –> 00:35:58.320
Speaker:
weeks, apparently before she was

1070
00:35:58.320 –> 00:36:00.199
Speaker:
murdered there.

1071
00:36:00.199 –> 00:36:01.239
Speaker:
Oh. Her sister.

1072
00:36:01.239 –> 00:36:04.000
Speaker:
The last thing that she told her
was she hated her.

1073
00:36:04.000 –> 00:36:04.880
Speaker:
That’s sad.

1074
00:36:04.880 –> 00:36:07.599
Speaker:
Oh, what’s kind of strange about
Sarah?

1075
00:36:07.599 –> 00:36:08.199
Speaker:
She talks about.

1076
00:36:08.199 –> 00:36:09.760
Speaker:
And there’s a podcast called

1077
00:36:09.760 –> 00:36:12.639
Speaker:
Dealing Justice, where Sarah

1078
00:36:12.639 –> 00:36:14.519
Speaker:
talks about, um, her sister’s

1079
00:36:14.519 –> 00:36:14.920
Speaker:
case.

1080
00:36:14.920 –> 00:36:17.119
Speaker:
And she mentions that on the

1081
00:36:17.119 –> 00:36:18.360
Speaker:
night that Elizabeth was

1082
00:36:18.360 –> 00:36:19.719
Speaker:
murdered.

1083
00:36:19.719 –> 00:36:21.599
Speaker:
So she was murdered around, um,

1084
00:36:21.599 –> 00:36:23.440
Speaker:
the police were called and

1085
00:36:23.440 –> 00:36:25.559
Speaker:
arrived at one eleven a m on

1086
00:36:25.559 –> 00:36:27.000
Speaker:
January twentieth.

1087
00:36:27.000 –> 00:36:29.599
Speaker:
So around one eleven a m is when
all that happened.

1088
00:36:29.599 –> 00:36:31.400
Speaker:
Apparently, the night of

1089
00:36:31.400 –> 00:36:33.679
Speaker:
Elizabeth’s murder, Sarah had a

1090
00:36:33.679 –> 00:36:36.159
Speaker:
dream that Elizabeth was running

1091
00:36:36.159 –> 00:36:38.519
Speaker:
through the woods, being chased

1092
00:36:38.519 –> 00:36:39.719
Speaker:
by someone with a knife and

1093
00:36:39.719 –> 00:36:40.840
Speaker:
being killed by someone with a

1094
00:36:40.840 –> 00:36:41.719
Speaker:
knife.

1095
00:36:41.719 –> 00:36:45.639
Speaker:
And Sarah wakes up at one oh
four one oh two one oh three a

1096
00:36:45.639 –> 00:36:48.559
Speaker:
m. You know, in a panic
thinking, oh my God, Elizabeth

1097
00:36:48.559 –> 00:36:50.000
Speaker:
just got stabbed.

1098
00:36:50.000 –> 00:36:53.239
Speaker:
And little did she know that,
you know, one, she probably had

1099
00:36:53.239 –> 00:36:54.159
Speaker:
been at that time.

1100
00:36:54.159 –> 00:36:56.610
Speaker:
So very strange.

1101
00:36:56.610 –> 00:37:00.369
Speaker:
And I’m not saying she’s a
suspect or anything, but it’s

1102
00:37:00.369 –> 00:37:01.650
Speaker:
just really bizarre.

1103
00:37:01.650 –> 00:37:02.849
Speaker:
And then she, you know, they had

1104
00:37:02.849 –> 00:37:04.650
Speaker:
the the fight was the last real

1105
00:37:04.650 –> 00:37:06.210
Speaker:
conversation.

1106
00:37:06.210 –> 00:37:08.929
Speaker:
She later went through her, um,

1107
00:37:08.929 –> 00:37:09.889
Speaker:
Sarah was going through

1108
00:37:09.889 –> 00:37:12.090
Speaker:
Elizabeth’s things later on and

1109
00:37:12.090 –> 00:37:14.329
Speaker:
found a note that Elizabeth had

1110
00:37:14.329 –> 00:37:17.050
Speaker:
written to Sarah that said, I’m

1111
00:37:17.050 –> 00:37:19.210
Speaker:
sorry I forgive you, Sarah, I

1112
00:37:19.210 –> 00:37:20.010
Speaker:
love you.

1113
00:37:20.010 –> 00:37:20.889
Speaker:
So she never.

1114
00:37:20.889 –> 00:37:22.849
Speaker:
That’s way cool, at least.

1115
00:37:22.849 –> 00:37:23.849
Speaker:
Yeah, she did find that.

1116
00:37:23.849 –> 00:37:26.730
Speaker:
So she, of course, broke down,
uh, after finding that.

1117
00:37:26.730 –> 00:37:28.610
Speaker:
But I guess she never gave it to
Sarah.

1118
00:37:28.610 –> 00:37:30.010
Speaker:
But she found that in her stuff.

1119
00:37:30.010 –> 00:37:35.929
Speaker:
So just a horrible story all
around, basically.

1120
00:37:35.929 –> 00:37:38.170
Speaker:
Yeah, totally.

1121
00:37:38.170 –> 00:37:38.690
Speaker:
Yeah.

1122
00:37:38.690 –> 00:37:42.489
Speaker:
Um, I think I have another clip
we could watch really quick.

1123
00:37:42.489 –> 00:37:42.809
Speaker:
Okay.

1124
00:37:42.809 –> 00:37:45.570
Speaker:
Um, let me share my screen.

1125
00:37:48.010 –> 00:37:50.010
Speaker:
Oh, uh, somebody asked, was the

1126
00:37:50.010 –> 00:37:52.610
Speaker:
murder weapon found in DNA and

1127
00:37:52.610 –> 00:37:53.210
Speaker:
fingerprints?

1128
00:37:53.210 –> 00:37:54.230
Speaker:
Cryptex.

1129
00:37:54.230 –> 00:37:55.309
Speaker:
Was it?

1130
00:37:55.309 –> 00:37:55.949
Speaker:
Yeah.

1131
00:37:55.949 –> 00:38:00.269
Speaker:
Um, the murder weapon was never
found, as far as I know.

1132
00:38:00.269 –> 00:38:03.190
Speaker:
Um, so they say that a knife was

1133
00:38:03.190 –> 00:38:04.510
Speaker:
never found on the scene or

1134
00:38:04.510 –> 00:38:04.869
Speaker:
whatever.

1135
00:38:04.869 –> 00:38:06.710
Speaker:
So whoever took off took off

1136
00:38:06.710 –> 00:38:07.829
Speaker:
with the murder weapon, they

1137
00:38:07.829 –> 00:38:08.510
Speaker:
say.

1138
00:38:08.510 –> 00:38:11.550
Speaker:
It’s possible that they’re not
releasing that information.

1139
00:38:11.550 –> 00:38:13.150
Speaker:
Um, and the last we heard was

1140
00:38:13.150 –> 00:38:15.590
Speaker:
they were doing DNA testing on

1141
00:38:15.590 –> 00:38:17.809
Speaker:
William Clyde Gibson to see if

1142
00:38:17.809 –> 00:38:19.230
Speaker:
any of the DNA matched whatever

1143
00:38:19.230 –> 00:38:20.690
Speaker:
they might have found at the

1144
00:38:20.690 –> 00:38:20.989
Speaker:
time.

1145
00:38:20.989 –> 00:38:22.030
Speaker:
The serial killer.

1146
00:38:22.030 –> 00:38:23.510
Speaker:
That’s the serial killer.

1147
00:38:23.510 –> 00:38:25.510
Speaker:
And nothing has ever been
released on that.

1148
00:38:25.510 –> 00:38:27.269
Speaker:
So, I mean, that’s been enough

1149
00:38:27.269 –> 00:38:28.190
Speaker:
time where they’d have some

1150
00:38:28.190 –> 00:38:30.030
Speaker:
information, but there’s no news

1151
00:38:30.030 –> 00:38:30.389
Speaker:
on that.

1152
00:38:30.389 –> 00:38:33.349
Speaker:
So I don’t know if they’ve also
factored that in to the fact

1153
00:38:33.349 –> 00:38:36.710
Speaker:
that they’ve they’re not really
taking him seriously.

1154
00:38:36.710 –> 00:38:37.829
Speaker:
Yeah, probably.

1155
00:38:37.829 –> 00:38:38.710
Speaker:
Huh.

1156
00:38:38.710 –> 00:38:41.829
Speaker:
Okay, so we can watch this clip
really quick.

1157
00:38:41.829 –> 00:38:44.030
Speaker:
Or maybe we’ll watch the whole
thing, I don’t know, we’ll see

1158
00:38:44.030 –> 00:38:45.230
Speaker:
how good it is.

1159
00:38:45.230 –> 00:38:45.710
Speaker:
Sure.

1160
00:38:45.710 –> 00:38:48.710
Speaker:
It’s two decades after the
murder of their loved one.

1161
00:38:48.710 –> 00:38:51.070
Speaker:

member says it has more

1163
00:38:55.480 –> 00:38:59.440
Speaker:

1164
00:38:59.440 –> 00:39:00.360
Speaker:
in the case.

1165
00:39:00.360 –> 00:39:05.079
Speaker:
Eyewitness news Noah Alonso has
the latest on the investigation.

1166

like me and my siblings, my

1167
00:39:07.900 –> 00:39:09.800
Speaker:
family have been disrespected.

1168
00:39:09.800 –> 00:39:12.440
Speaker:
Somebody on the inside is trying

1169
00:39:12.440 –> 00:39:16.239
Speaker:
to use their authority and their

1170
00:39:16.239 –> 00:39:19.500
Speaker:
power to cover something else

1171
00:39:19.500 –> 00:39:20.079
Speaker:
up.

1172
00:39:20.079 –> 00:39:20.760
Speaker:
It’s a story.

1173
00:39:20.760 –> 00:39:22.079
Speaker:
Eyewitness news first brought

1174
00:39:22.079 –> 00:39:24.119
Speaker:
you on Monday, a potential break

1175
00:39:24.119 –> 00:39:25.559
Speaker:
in a cold case from two

1176
00:39:25.559 –> 00:39:26.360
Speaker:
thousand.

1177
00:39:26.360 –> 00:39:29.079
Speaker:
The family of Elizabeth
Bannister is keeping up the

1178
00:39:29.079 –> 00:39:32.820
Speaker:
pressure tonight, as a private
investigator now says agents are

1179
00:39:32.820 –> 00:39:34.960
Speaker:
nearing closure on the case.

1180
00:39:34.960 –> 00:39:38.519
Speaker:
One of Bannister’s sisters,
Rebecca Swett, says she still

1181
00:39:38.519 –> 00:39:40.000
Speaker:
has many questions.

1182
00:39:40.000 –> 00:39:40.920
Speaker:
They all ruled them.

1183
00:39:40.920 –> 00:39:43.119
Speaker:
The police force ruled everybody
out.

1184
00:39:43.119 –> 00:39:45.719
Speaker:
It makes no sense.

1185
00:39:45.719 –> 00:39:47.360
Speaker:
I don’t understand this at all.

1186
00:39:47.360 –> 00:39:49.719
Speaker:
Then nobody heard anything
strange.

1187
00:39:49.719 –> 00:39:52.050
Speaker:
Okay, so all of a sudden
somebody goes in there and they

1188
00:39:52.050 –> 00:39:54.210
Speaker:
see her stabbed multiple times.

1189
00:39:54.210 –> 00:39:57.829
Speaker:
Okay, uh, three people in the
apartment at the time, it says,

1190
00:39:57.829 –> 00:40:02.730
Speaker:
and it says at the time, uh,
never saw anyone break in.

1191
00:40:02.730 –> 00:40:03.210
Speaker:
Okay.

1192
00:40:03.210 –> 00:40:05.570
Speaker:
But an elderly, elderly neighbor

1193
00:40:05.570 –> 00:40:11.150
Speaker:
saw a African American man, uh,

1194
00:40:11.150 –> 00:40:11.769
Speaker:
flu.

1195
00:40:11.769 –> 00:40:12.130
Speaker:
Flu?

1196
00:40:12.130 –> 00:40:13.530
Speaker:
The flu vaccine.

1197
00:40:13.530 –> 00:40:15.690
Speaker:
The family says they are fed up

1198
00:40:15.690 –> 00:40:16.809
Speaker:
with the response from

1199
00:40:16.809 –> 00:40:18.090
Speaker:
Evansville police.

1200
00:40:18.090 –> 00:40:19.530
Speaker:
I feel like they did absolutely
nothing.

1201
00:40:19.530 –> 00:40:22.349
Speaker:
All they did was go and talk to
people that were around there

1202
00:40:22.349 –> 00:40:25.650
Speaker:
that were supposedly around at
the time of her death.

1203
00:40:25.650 –> 00:40:26.210
Speaker:
Then what?

1204
00:40:26.210 –> 00:40:27.210
Speaker:
Okay, shake it off.

1205
00:40:27.210 –> 00:40:28.369
Speaker:
No suspects.

1206
00:40:28.369 –> 00:40:30.210
Speaker:
Rule out two weeks later.

1207
00:40:30.210 –> 00:40:34.090
Speaker:
Cold case and a promise from a
family still reeling from a

1208
00:40:34.090 –> 00:40:37.809
Speaker:
tragic death twenty years ago to
never give up.

1209
00:40:37.809 –> 00:40:40.250
Speaker:
I just want people to know that
I’m not blaming.

1210
00:40:40.250 –> 00:40:41.889
Speaker:
I’m not pointing fingers at
anybody.

1211
00:40:41.889 –> 00:40:45.929
Speaker:
But if you really look at this
case, if you really sit down and

1212
00:40:45.929 –> 00:40:49.989
Speaker:
look at this case and take all
of the articles that were from

1213
00:40:49.989 –> 00:40:54.150
Speaker:
point A to point B to the from
the beginning to the end.

1214
00:40:54.150 –> 00:40:58.030
Speaker:
Take them and compare them and
they make no sense.

1215
00:40:58.030 –> 00:40:59.429
Speaker:
I just feel like they need to

1216
00:40:59.429 –> 00:41:00.690
Speaker:
start doing more work in

1217
00:41:00.690 –> 00:41:01.230
Speaker:
Evansville.

1218
00:41:01.230 –> 00:41:03.989
Speaker:
Noah Alonso, Eyewitness News.

1219
00:41:03.989 –> 00:41:07.150
Speaker:
We reached out to the Evansville
Police Department earlier this

1220
00:41:07.150 –> 00:41:10.550
Speaker:
week, and we were told that
detectives are looking at a

1221
00:41:10.550 –> 00:41:12.070
Speaker:
possible person of interest.

1222
00:41:12.070 –> 00:41:12.909
Speaker:
We’ll pass along more

1223
00:41:12.909 –> 00:41:14.349
Speaker:
information as soon as it

1224
00:41:14.349 –> 00:41:17.190
Speaker:
becomes available.

1225
00:41:17.190 –> 00:41:17.510
Speaker:
Yeah.

1226
00:41:17.510 –> 00:41:19.590
Speaker:
Fifteen people of interest.

1227
00:41:19.590 –> 00:41:22.750
Speaker:
That’s weird that like the they
said that the private

1228
00:41:22.750 –> 00:41:25.070
Speaker:
investigator said something, but
they didn’t, like, say anything

1229
00:41:25.070 –> 00:41:25.869
Speaker:
about what it was.

1230
00:41:25.869 –> 00:41:27.150
Speaker:
That’s I don’t know, I guess

1231
00:41:27.150 –> 00:41:29.469
Speaker:
it’s maybe it’s not weird, but

1232
00:41:29.469 –> 00:41:32.070
Speaker:
yeah, I think and I think the

1233
00:41:32.070 –> 00:41:33.269
Speaker:
person of interest, I think is

1234
00:41:33.269 –> 00:41:34.309
Speaker:
when they were talking about

1235
00:41:34.309 –> 00:41:36.429
Speaker:
the, the serial killer, William

1236
00:41:36.429 –> 00:41:38.110
Speaker:
Clyde Gibson, I think that was

1237
00:41:38.110 –> 00:41:39.269
Speaker:
coming out with, you know,

1238
00:41:39.269 –> 00:41:40.730
Speaker:
they’re looking into him, um, at

1239
00:41:40.730 –> 00:41:41.110
Speaker:
that time.

1240
00:41:41.110 –> 00:41:43.389
Speaker:
So I don’t know if that was the
person they were talking about

1241
00:41:43.389 –> 00:41:45.429
Speaker:
as the person of interest.

1242
00:41:45.429 –> 00:41:46.550
Speaker:
Oh I see yeah.

1243
00:41:46.550 –> 00:41:47.920
Speaker:
I’m not aware that there was
another.

1244
00:41:47.920 –> 00:41:50.480
Speaker:
There’s been another person of
interest other than him.

1245
00:41:50.480 –> 00:41:53.639
Speaker:
After that podcast came out in
twenty twenty three.

1246
00:41:53.639 –> 00:41:56.440
Speaker:
So yeah, I think Mark, I think
it’s Mark.

1247
00:41:56.440 –> 00:41:58.920
Speaker:
I don’t know, right.

1248
00:41:58.920 –> 00:42:02.199
Speaker:
And actually, I have another
clip, um, of Sarah talking about

1249
00:42:02.199 –> 00:42:03.119
Speaker:
Mark a little bit more.

1250
00:42:03.119 –> 00:42:04.599
Speaker:
If you, if you want to hear
about that.

1251
00:42:04.599 –> 00:42:05.579
Speaker:
Um, yeah, it’s kind of her

1252
00:42:05.579 –> 00:42:07.239
Speaker:
talking about Mark and how he

1253
00:42:07.239 –> 00:42:08.599
Speaker:
treated them and it’s coming

1254
00:42:08.599 –> 00:42:09.360
Speaker:
from her.

1255
00:42:09.360 –> 00:42:14.119
Speaker:
It sounds a little better than
me saying it, but, uh, let me.

1256
00:42:14.119 –> 00:42:14.440
Speaker:
Right.

1257
00:42:14.440 –> 00:42:17.440
Speaker:
And then this, uh, Cryptex asked
sensitive question.

1258
00:42:17.440 –> 00:42:19.719
Speaker:
Could it be drug related?

1259
00:42:19.719 –> 00:42:23.360
Speaker:
I mean, oh, I, I that could
certainly be on the table with,

1260
00:42:23.360 –> 00:42:24.480
Speaker:
uh, a drug deal gone.

1261
00:42:24.480 –> 00:42:24.719
Speaker:
Right?

1262
00:42:24.719 –> 00:42:28.880
Speaker:
Well, considering the she
borrowed money for a phone call,

1263
00:42:28.880 –> 00:42:31.199
Speaker:
and who knows if that wasn’t
really drug money to go get

1264
00:42:31.199 –> 00:42:36.199
Speaker:
drugs and somebody, uh, I would
say it could be, I think

1265
00:42:36.199 –> 00:42:37.840
Speaker:
anything is on the table here.

1266
00:42:37.840 –> 00:42:40.199
Speaker:
And then like the person, the

1267
00:42:40.199 –> 00:42:43.059
Speaker:
person running out, like maybe

1268
00:42:43.059 –> 00:42:45.684
Speaker:
could be like the dealer or a

1269
00:42:45.684 –> 00:42:47.210
Speaker:
John if she was being a

1270
00:42:47.210 –> 00:42:47.769
Speaker:
prostitute.

1271
00:42:47.769 –> 00:42:49.570
Speaker:
That’s a high risk occupation.

1272
00:42:49.570 –> 00:42:51.289
Speaker:
So it is.

1273
00:42:51.289 –> 00:42:51.889
Speaker:
Yeah.

1274
00:42:51.889 –> 00:42:54.210
Speaker:
And I mean, it could even be a

1275
00:42:54.210 –> 00:42:56.289
Speaker:
situation where she was murdered

1276
00:42:56.289 –> 00:42:57.730
Speaker:
in her apartment and some other

1277
00:42:57.730 –> 00:42:58.730
Speaker:
guy was going up there to do

1278
00:42:58.730 –> 00:43:00.849
Speaker:
something and finds her and then

1279
00:43:00.849 –> 00:43:01.449
Speaker:
runs.

1280
00:43:01.449 –> 00:43:02.489
Speaker:
He freaks out and runs out.

1281
00:43:02.489 –> 00:43:03.849
Speaker:
You know, it might be the guy
that ran away.

1282
00:43:03.849 –> 00:43:04.849
Speaker:
He wasn’t.

1283
00:43:04.849 –> 00:43:05.289
Speaker:
You know what I mean?

1284
00:43:05.289 –> 00:43:07.130
Speaker:
Like, I think anything is
possible at this point.

1285
00:43:07.130 –> 00:43:11.369
Speaker:
Like she could have been there
for drugs or, you know, for any

1286
00:43:11.369 –> 00:43:13.929
Speaker:
number of reasons and ran out if
that even happened.

1287
00:43:13.929 –> 00:43:14.889
Speaker:
I mean, that’s just the neighbor

1288
00:43:14.889 –> 00:43:15.949
Speaker:
saying it, but I mean, I don’t

1289
00:43:15.949 –> 00:43:16.650
Speaker:
again, I don’t know why the

1290
00:43:16.650 –> 00:43:17.570
Speaker:
neighbor would make that up,

1291
00:43:17.570 –> 00:43:18.409
Speaker:
but.

1292
00:43:18.409 –> 00:43:19.610
Speaker:
Well, she was elderly.

1293
00:43:19.610 –> 00:43:23.130
Speaker:
And so I don’t know how good her
site is or like all, there’s a

1294
00:43:23.130 –> 00:43:24.010
Speaker:
lot of questions there.

1295
00:43:24.010 –> 00:43:26.409
Speaker:
What was she doing up at one
o’clock in the morning?

1296
00:43:26.409 –> 00:43:26.570
Speaker:
Yeah.

1297
00:43:26.570 –> 00:43:27.090
Speaker:
I don’t know.

1298
00:43:27.090 –> 00:43:28.050
Speaker:
The neighbor.

1299
00:43:28.050 –> 00:43:29.369
Speaker:
I think it was a man, but I

1300
00:43:29.369 –> 00:43:30.670
Speaker:
don’t know if they’ve named who

1301
00:43:30.670 –> 00:43:31.929
Speaker:
the neighbor was that saw the

1302
00:43:31.929 –> 00:43:33.150
Speaker:
African American running out,

1303
00:43:33.150 –> 00:43:33.570
Speaker:
did they?

1304
00:43:33.570 –> 00:43:34.690
Speaker:
Oh, I thought, I thought it was

1305
00:43:34.690 –> 00:43:35.929
Speaker:
that older lady that they

1306
00:43:35.929 –> 00:43:36.889
Speaker:
showed, but that probably

1307
00:43:36.889 –> 00:43:37.489
Speaker:
wasn’t.

1308
00:43:37.489 –> 00:43:39.570
Speaker:
Oh, it might have been, I don’t
know.

1309
00:43:39.570 –> 00:43:39.730
Speaker:
Yeah.

1310
00:43:39.730 –> 00:43:42.730
Speaker:
They probably wouldn’t show who
the eyewitness was.

1311
00:43:42.730 –> 00:43:43.250
Speaker:
They might not.

1312
00:43:43.250 –> 00:43:45.860
Speaker:
I wouldn’t want my name anywhere
around this case.

1313
00:43:45.860 –> 00:43:46.619
Speaker:
Uh, honestly.

1314
00:43:46.619 –> 00:43:47.659
Speaker:
Yeah.

1315
00:43:47.659 –> 00:43:50.420
Speaker:
As somebody who’s a witness
anyway.

1316
00:43:50.420 –> 00:43:50.940
Speaker:
Mhm.

1317
00:43:50.940 –> 00:43:53.019
Speaker:
All right, let me get this cued
up.

1318
00:43:53.019 –> 00:43:54.579
Speaker:
Yeah, I don’t know.

1319
00:43:54.579 –> 00:43:56.940
Speaker:
Like, I always thought it was
evansdale, too.

1320
00:43:56.940 –> 00:43:59.059
Speaker:
Maybe it’s always been
Evansville.

1321
00:43:59.059 –> 00:44:00.179
Speaker:
That’s crazy.

1322
00:44:03.940 –> 00:44:05.420
Speaker:
We only make the news for bad

1323
00:44:05.420 –> 00:44:07.199
Speaker:
things when there’s a tragedy or

1324
00:44:07.199 –> 00:44:07.940
Speaker:
drug things.

1325
00:44:07.940 –> 00:44:08.940
Speaker:
It’s like, oh, we were like the

1326
00:44:08.940 –> 00:44:10.659
Speaker:
meth capital of the world and

1327
00:44:10.659 –> 00:44:11.260
Speaker:
and stuff.

1328
00:44:11.260 –> 00:44:13.699
Speaker:
Oh, that’s that’s something to
be proud of right there.

1329
00:44:13.699 –> 00:44:14.380
Speaker:
Exactly.

1330
00:44:14.380 –> 00:44:17.300
Speaker:
So it’s like, can we not ever
win any nice awards?

1331
00:44:19.019 –> 00:44:21.860
Speaker:
I guess I wouldn’t have material
for my podcast if we did.

1332
00:44:21.860 –> 00:44:22.500
Speaker:
Yeah.

1333
00:44:23.659 –> 00:44:24.019
Speaker:
All right.

1334
00:44:24.019 –> 00:44:25.179
Speaker:
And this is a clip from the

1335
00:44:25.179 –> 00:44:27.539
Speaker:
Dealing Justice podcast season

1336
00:44:27.539 –> 00:44:29.420
Speaker:
one, episode eight, where

1337
00:44:29.420 –> 00:44:30.639
Speaker:
they’re talking to Sara

1338
00:44:30.639 –> 00:44:32.139
Speaker:
Elizabeth’s sister about the

1339
00:44:32.139 –> 00:44:32.860
Speaker:
case.

1340
00:44:34.420 –> 00:44:37.900
Speaker:
Mark was not a good man, and I
think everybody knew that.

1341
00:44:37.900 –> 00:44:41.820
Speaker:
My mother, I love her to death,
but she, uh, she tended to be

1342
00:44:41.820 –> 00:44:46.079
Speaker:
with men who were very abusive
towards her and us.

1343
00:44:46.079 –> 00:44:47.519
Speaker:
My mom just never believed the

1344
00:44:47.519 –> 00:44:48.719
Speaker:
stories that we would try to

1345
00:44:48.719 –> 00:44:49.559
Speaker:
tell her.

1346
00:44:49.559 –> 00:44:54.119
Speaker:
When it came to her boyfriends,
Mark broke my finger trying to

1347
00:44:54.119 –> 00:44:56.960
Speaker:
spank me with a belt.

1348
00:44:56.960 –> 00:45:03.760
Speaker:
Um, Mark was a truck driver and,
um, we were made to go with him.

1349
00:45:03.760 –> 00:45:05.480
Speaker:
We didn’t have a choice.

1350
00:45:05.480 –> 00:45:07.800
Speaker:
Give my mom a so-called break.

1351
00:45:07.800 –> 00:45:10.940
Speaker:
He wanted us to take turns, and

1352
00:45:10.940 –> 00:45:12.739
Speaker:
I would go with him one time,

1353
00:45:12.739 –> 00:45:14.400
Speaker:
and then my sister would go with

1354
00:45:14.400 –> 00:45:14.599
Speaker:
him.

1355
00:45:14.599 –> 00:45:15.800
Speaker:
Another time.

1356
00:45:15.800 –> 00:45:17.519
Speaker:
He would take you and your other
sister, though.

1357
00:45:17.519 –> 00:45:19.880
Speaker:
On the truck ride, not Elizabeth
Wright.

1358
00:45:19.880 –> 00:45:21.800
Speaker:
It was just you and your other
sister.

1359
00:45:21.800 –> 00:45:23.199
Speaker:
Me and Rebecca.

1360
00:45:23.199 –> 00:45:25.000
Speaker:
He would take on truck rides.

1361
00:45:25.000 –> 00:45:26.719
Speaker:
I didn’t want to go because of.

1362
00:45:26.719 –> 00:45:31.159
Speaker:
Okay, he’s already putting his
hands on me like I was scared.

1363
00:45:31.159 –> 00:45:32.880
Speaker:
You know, I didn’t want to go.

1364
00:45:32.880 –> 00:45:36.480
Speaker:
I begged my mom not to make me
go.

1365
00:45:36.480 –> 00:45:39.840
Speaker:
And she would make me go like
you can’t.

1366
00:45:39.840 –> 00:45:40.559
Speaker:
We wanted to go.

1367
00:45:40.559 –> 00:45:42.730
Speaker:
Me and my sister wants to go
together.

1368
00:45:42.730 –> 00:45:46.130
Speaker:
And he said no. But he never
would let two of us go.

1369
00:45:47.130 –> 00:45:48.570
Speaker:
He’d only do one.

1370
00:45:48.570 –> 00:45:49.409
Speaker:
Each one of us.

1371
00:45:49.409 –> 00:45:49.730
Speaker:
One.

1372
00:45:49.730 –> 00:45:51.530
Speaker:
One at a time.

1373
00:45:51.530 –> 00:45:52.769
Speaker:
Now I know why.

1374
00:45:52.769 –> 00:45:57.090
Speaker:
Well, when I was in the truck
with him, I was eight years old.

1375
00:45:57.090 –> 00:45:59.449
Speaker:
And he told me he wants her.

1376
00:45:59.449 –> 00:46:01.409
Speaker:
Those were his words.

1377
00:46:01.409 –> 00:46:03.289
Speaker:
He wants her.

1378
00:46:03.289 –> 00:46:06.610
Speaker:
And I had no idea what he was
talking about.

1379
00:46:06.610 –> 00:46:08.170
Speaker:
And I asked him, what do you.

1380
00:46:08.170 –> 00:46:10.170
Speaker:
What are you talking about?

1381
00:46:10.170 –> 00:46:12.409
Speaker:
He pointed to what he was
talking about.

1382
00:46:12.409 –> 00:46:13.849
Speaker:
He would point.

1383
00:46:13.849 –> 00:46:16.449
Speaker:
Only Mark and Sara were in the
truck together.

1384
00:46:16.449 –> 00:46:20.130
Speaker:
So that means when Mark was
pointing and saying her, he was

1385
00:46:20.130 –> 00:46:21.489
Speaker:
pointing at Sara.

1386
00:46:24.449 –> 00:46:27.329
Speaker:
And he said he wants her as he

1387
00:46:27.329 –> 00:46:28.650
Speaker:
pointed to what he was talking

1388
00:46:28.650 –> 00:46:29.969
Speaker:
about.

1389
00:46:29.969 –> 00:46:30.969
Speaker:
I was scared.

1390
00:46:30.969 –> 00:46:37.050
Speaker:
I told him no. And he writes me.

1391
00:46:38.329 –> 00:46:39.139
Speaker:
He ain’t years old.

1392
00:46:39.139 –> 00:46:41.139
Speaker:
You don’t think parents are

1393
00:46:41.139 –> 00:46:42.219
Speaker:
telling you, I’m sorry, I didn’t

1394
00:46:42.219 –> 00:46:43.380
Speaker:
mean to hurt you, yada yada

1395
00:46:43.380 –> 00:46:43.699
Speaker:
yada.

1396
00:46:43.699 –> 00:46:44.539
Speaker:
You’re going to believe it.

1397
00:46:44.539 –> 00:46:44.860
Speaker:
You know?

1398
00:46:44.860 –> 00:46:48.300
Speaker:
You’re going to believe it
because you, you you love them

1399
00:46:48.300 –> 00:46:49.940
Speaker:
or you care about them.

1400
00:46:49.940 –> 00:46:51.300
Speaker:
I never talked about it.

1401
00:46:51.300 –> 00:46:54.139
Speaker:
The only person I ever told was
my sister.

1402
00:46:54.139 –> 00:46:56.539
Speaker:
So as I got older, when my

1403
00:46:56.539 –> 00:46:59.239
Speaker:
sister was murdered, me and my

1404
00:46:59.239 –> 00:47:01.699
Speaker:
adopted mom, I told my adopted

1405
00:47:01.699 –> 00:47:02.460
Speaker:
mom.

1406
00:47:02.460 –> 00:47:03.380
Speaker:
I remember we were in the

1407
00:47:03.380 –> 00:47:05.420
Speaker:
bathroom and she was doing my

1408
00:47:05.420 –> 00:47:05.860
Speaker:
hair.

1409
00:47:05.860 –> 00:47:09.780
Speaker:
We were talking and I told her,
I told her, I told her

1410
00:47:09.780 –> 00:47:14.900
Speaker:
everything that I just mentioned
and she said, Sarah, why have

1411
00:47:14.900 –> 00:47:18.059
Speaker:
you not told me this before?

1412
00:47:18.059 –> 00:47:22.940
Speaker:
I was scared, I was scared like
I was going to get beat.

1413
00:47:22.940 –> 00:47:24.139
Speaker:
I was going to get.

1414
00:47:24.139 –> 00:47:27.699
Speaker:
Nobody would believe me, I was
terrified.

1415
00:47:27.699 –> 00:47:29.460
Speaker:
She reported to the authorities.

1416
00:47:29.460 –> 00:47:31.059
Speaker:
She did call them and she

1417
00:47:31.059 –> 00:47:32.539
Speaker:
reported everything that I told

1418
00:47:32.539 –> 00:47:33.380
Speaker:
her.

1419
00:47:33.380 –> 00:47:36.780
Speaker:
They spoke with me and then they
spoke back with her.

1420
00:47:36.780 –> 00:47:39.099
Speaker:
According to authorities, there

1421
00:47:39.099 –> 00:47:40.960
Speaker:
is nothing that they can do

1422
00:47:40.960 –> 00:47:44.639
Speaker:
because they don’t know where to

1423
00:47:44.639 –> 00:47:46.000
Speaker:
happen.

1424
00:47:46.000 –> 00:47:49.280
Speaker:
Given that I was in a semi
truck, you know, one of those

1425
00:47:49.280 –> 00:47:52.159
Speaker:
ones with the bed in it, you
know, because you go over state

1426
00:47:52.159 –> 00:47:56.260
Speaker:
lines or I couldn’t verify that
it happened here at one point

1427
00:47:56.260 –> 00:47:57.480
Speaker:
because not every time.

1428
00:47:57.480 –> 00:48:00.360
Speaker:
I mean, it happened twice.

1429
00:48:00.360 –> 00:48:03.840
Speaker:
So before we got taken again.

1430
00:48:03.840 –> 00:48:08.119
Speaker:
So I’m not sure like where it
happened.

1431
00:48:08.119 –> 00:48:09.159
Speaker:
I don’t know any of that.

1432
00:48:09.159 –> 00:48:11.639
Speaker:
And because we don’t know that
information.

1433
00:48:11.639 –> 00:48:14.719
Speaker:
They’re saying that there’s
nothing they could do.

1434
00:48:14.719 –> 00:48:16.000
Speaker:
There’s even more shocking

1435
00:48:16.000 –> 00:48:17.719
Speaker:
information to come involving

1436
00:48:17.719 –> 00:48:18.800
Speaker:
Mark.

1437
00:48:18.800 –> 00:48:21.800
Speaker:
Their mother, Rose, was guilty
of having terrible taste in men.

1438
00:48:21.800 –> 00:48:25.719
Speaker:
But one thing Sarah does insist
upon was, despite it all, she

1439
00:48:25.719 –> 00:48:26.679
Speaker:
loved her mother.

1440
00:48:26.679 –> 00:48:27.480
Speaker:
I mean, my mother.

1441
00:48:27.480 –> 00:48:29.599
Speaker:
I love her dearly, and I will
always love her.

1442
00:48:29.599 –> 00:48:31.559
Speaker:
And I don’t blame her for
anything.

1443
00:48:31.559 –> 00:48:31.960
Speaker:
She.

1444
00:48:31.960 –> 00:48:33.920
Speaker:
You know, she bought us what she
could.

1445
00:48:33.920 –> 00:48:34.760
Speaker:
She fed us.

1446
00:48:34.760 –> 00:48:36.090
Speaker:
She had a bed for us.

1447
00:48:36.090 –> 00:48:39.849
Speaker:
She had bedrooms like she had
all that.

1448
00:48:39.849 –> 00:48:42.769
Speaker:
It was just her health
conditions were wearing in on

1449
00:48:42.769 –> 00:48:47.610
Speaker:
her and we were molested and
abused in the home, but it was

1450
00:48:47.610 –> 00:48:49.329
Speaker:
never by her.

1451
00:48:49.329 –> 00:48:51.809
Speaker:
She had a lot of health
problems.

1452
00:48:51.809 –> 00:48:53.329
Speaker:
Rose’s health continued to

1453
00:48:53.329 –> 00:48:55.449
Speaker:
deteriorate, and as Elizabeth

1454
00:48:55.449 –> 00:48:57.210
Speaker:
was turning seventeen, Rose was

1455
00:48:57.210 –> 00:48:58.969
Speaker:
able to get custody back of

1456
00:48:58.969 –> 00:49:00.289
Speaker:
Elizabeth.

1457
00:49:00.289 –> 00:49:03.409
Speaker:
Elizabeth moved in with her mom
and Mark, and she helped care

1458
00:49:03.409 –> 00:49:05.010
Speaker:
for her ailing mother.

1459
00:49:05.010 –> 00:49:06.250
Speaker:
In nineteen ninety seven,

1460
00:49:06.250 –> 00:49:07.610
Speaker:
Elizabeth and Sara’s mother

1461
00:49:07.610 –> 00:49:08.690
Speaker:
passed away.

1462
00:49:08.690 –> 00:49:09.650
Speaker:
Elizabeth was there.

1463
00:49:09.650 –> 00:49:13.170
Speaker:
I guess she found her body, I
think is what happened.

1464
00:49:13.170 –> 00:49:14.610
Speaker:
She had emphysema.

1465
00:49:14.610 –> 00:49:15.889
Speaker:
When they did the autopsy, they

1466
00:49:15.889 –> 00:49:16.809
Speaker:
found out that she had

1467
00:49:16.809 –> 00:49:17.969
Speaker:
emphysema.

1468
00:49:17.969 –> 00:49:21.409
Speaker:
And they claimed that she died
of emphysema.

1469
00:49:21.409 –> 00:49:23.289
Speaker:
I mean, how old was she when she
passed away?

1470
00:49:23.289 –> 00:49:23.650
Speaker:
She was.

1471
00:49:23.650 –> 00:49:27.570
Speaker:
How old do I think she was in
her thirties.

1472
00:49:27.570 –> 00:49:30.809
Speaker:
Elizabeth was not yet eighteen
when her mom died.

1473
00:49:30.809 –> 00:49:32.489
Speaker:
So after she lost her mother,

1474
00:49:32.489 –> 00:49:34.380
Speaker:
she was briefly put into a group

1475
00:49:34.380 –> 00:49:36.820
Speaker:
home until she aged out of the

1476
00:49:36.820 –> 00:49:39.239
Speaker:
system, and then she moved in

1477
00:49:39.239 –> 00:49:40.619
Speaker:
with Mark.

1478
00:49:40.619 –> 00:49:41.219
Speaker:
That’s right.

1479
00:49:41.219 –> 00:49:42.659
Speaker:
She moved in with the same man

1480
00:49:42.659 –> 00:49:44.139
Speaker:
who took Sarah on those truck

1481
00:49:44.139 –> 00:49:45.539
Speaker:
driving runs.

1482
00:49:45.539 –> 00:49:46.860
Speaker:
And this is where it comes with.

1483
00:49:46.860 –> 00:49:50.260
Speaker:
When I said I was angry with
Elizabeth because she knew.

1484
00:49:50.260 –> 00:49:52.059
Speaker:
She knew what happened to me.

1485
00:49:52.059 –> 00:49:54.780
Speaker:
And she started living with him
when she got the group home.

1486
00:49:54.780 –> 00:49:57.460
Speaker:
Elizabeth and Mark weren’t just
roommates either.

1487
00:49:57.460 –> 00:50:03.340
Speaker:
He asked her to marry him, is
what she told me, and I thought

1488
00:50:03.340 –> 00:50:04.500
Speaker:
it was immoral.

1489
00:50:04.500 –> 00:50:06.059
Speaker:
I thought it was wrong.

1490
00:50:06.059 –> 00:50:11.980
Speaker:
He was engaged to my mother, and
I told her if she did, I would

1491
00:50:11.980 –> 00:50:17.059
Speaker:
never speak to her again and
that I. I hated her for it.

1492
00:50:18.260 –> 00:50:20.139
Speaker:
Yeah, it’s pretty horrible.

1493
00:50:20.139 –> 00:50:22.400
Speaker:
Well, I mean, it it it does kind

1494
00:50:22.400 –> 00:50:24.739
Speaker:
of like, um, make sense because

1495
00:50:24.739 –> 00:50:26.500
Speaker:
he was like grooming her

1496
00:50:26.500 –> 00:50:27.300
Speaker:
obviously.

1497
00:50:27.300 –> 00:50:27.659
Speaker:
Right.

1498
00:50:27.659 –> 00:50:28.820
Speaker:
She wasn’t eighteen yet.

1499
00:50:28.820 –> 00:50:32.280
Speaker:
So like it’s not really like her
fault.

1500
00:50:32.280 –> 00:50:35.480
Speaker:
You get like a skewed vision of
like what?

1501
00:50:35.480 –> 00:50:38.840
Speaker:
Like, you know, love or caring
is so.

1502
00:50:38.840 –> 00:50:39.280
Speaker:
Yeah.

1503
00:50:39.280 –> 00:50:43.000
Speaker:
And according to Kelly Fontaine
and Kelly Fontaine was the

1504
00:50:43.000 –> 00:50:46.519
Speaker:
foster mother for Elizabeth for
a number of years.

1505
00:50:46.519 –> 00:50:49.280
Speaker:
I think she was between twelve
and seventeen years old.

1506
00:50:49.280 –> 00:50:51.880
Speaker:
So she had a big part of her
life at that time.

1507
00:50:51.880 –> 00:50:55.159
Speaker:
And Kelly says that Elizabeth
was kind of like mentally

1508
00:50:55.159 –> 00:50:56.400
Speaker:
stunted as an eight.

1509
00:50:56.400 –> 00:50:59.960
Speaker:
Basically, she was a, you know,
a seventeen year old with an

1510
00:50:59.960 –> 00:51:01.639
Speaker:
eight year old mentality.

1511
00:51:01.639 –> 00:51:03.559
Speaker:
She never really, you know,

1512
00:51:03.559 –> 00:51:05.199
Speaker:
progressed past that sort of

1513
00:51:05.199 –> 00:51:05.639
Speaker:
mentality.

1514
00:51:05.639 –> 00:51:07.360
Speaker:
So yeah, it’s definitely I could

1515
00:51:07.360 –> 00:51:08.480
Speaker:
see how she might fall into

1516
00:51:08.480 –> 00:51:09.400
Speaker:
this.

1517
00:51:09.400 –> 00:51:11.559
Speaker:
With Mark, I guess.

1518
00:51:11.559 –> 00:51:12.679
Speaker:
Yeah.

1519
00:51:12.679 –> 00:51:13.239
Speaker:
Yeah.

1520
00:51:13.239 –> 00:51:16.280
Speaker:
It does not sound like a very
nice guy for sure.

1521
00:51:16.280 –> 00:51:19.760
Speaker:
No, no. So I don’t know what you
know.

1522
00:51:19.760 –> 00:51:20.840
Speaker:
I don’t know what’s become of

1523
00:51:20.840 –> 00:51:22.199
Speaker:
Mark or, you know, what he’s

1524
00:51:22.199 –> 00:51:22.800
Speaker:
doing.

1525
00:51:22.800 –> 00:51:26.079
Speaker:
Uh, hopefully he’s moved on to
good things in his life, and

1526
00:51:26.079 –> 00:51:29.519
Speaker:
he’s not continuing this sort of
behavior, but I don’t know.

1527
00:51:29.519 –> 00:51:32.530
Speaker:
I seriously doubt I have no
hopes for that.

1528
00:51:32.530 –> 00:51:33.369
Speaker:
Really?

1529
00:51:33.369 –> 00:51:36.769
Speaker:
Uh. Sounds like he was doing it
for years and years.

1530
00:51:36.769 –> 00:51:38.889
Speaker:
And it’s not like a one time
thing.

1531
00:51:38.889 –> 00:51:40.530
Speaker:
Yeah, I’d be curious to know.

1532
00:51:40.530 –> 00:51:43.170
Speaker:
Like, I mean, I hope the police
that are investigating this look

1533
00:51:43.170 –> 00:51:46.050
Speaker:
into that sort of thing and
like, oh, he’s involved in

1534
00:51:46.050 –> 00:51:48.929
Speaker:
another disappearance or this
weird thing happened over here.

1535
00:51:48.929 –> 00:51:49.769
Speaker:
You know, I hope people are

1536
00:51:49.769 –> 00:51:51.409
Speaker:
connecting these dots, but I,

1537
00:51:51.409 –> 00:51:52.730
Speaker:
I’ve looked into these things

1538
00:51:52.730 –> 00:51:53.809
Speaker:
long enough to know that they

1539
00:51:53.809 –> 00:51:55.809
Speaker:
don’t like, like, I don’t think

1540
00:51:55.809 –> 00:51:57.030
Speaker:
there’s a lot of follow up or

1541
00:51:57.030 –> 00:51:57.250
Speaker:
things.

1542
00:51:57.250 –> 00:52:00.210
Speaker:
I think that’s why like internet
sleuths need to kind of connect

1543
00:52:00.210 –> 00:52:03.130
Speaker:
dots for, for them sometimes
because I don’t think they do.

1544
00:52:03.130 –> 00:52:06.630
Speaker:
They don’t have the resources a
lot of times to, to, especially

1545
00:52:06.630 –> 00:52:07.610
Speaker:
if they moved out of the area.

1546
00:52:07.610 –> 00:52:09.050
Speaker:
If he’s living in.

1547
00:52:09.050 –> 00:52:11.730
Speaker:
Well, as far as I know, I think
he is living out of state.

1548
00:52:11.730 –> 00:52:13.150
Speaker:
Uh, from what I found, but, uh,

1549
00:52:13.150 –> 00:52:14.949
Speaker:
did he move like right after the

1550
00:52:14.949 –> 00:52:17.369
Speaker:
murders or or the not long

1551
00:52:17.369 –> 00:52:17.769
Speaker:
after?

1552
00:52:17.769 –> 00:52:19.329
Speaker:
Yeah.

1553
00:52:19.329 –> 00:52:20.489
Speaker:
It’s from what I can tell, he’s

1554
00:52:20.489 –> 00:52:22.369
Speaker:
he’s he’s living out of state,

1555
00:52:22.369 –> 00:52:23.929
Speaker:
so I haven’t really looked in to

1556
00:52:23.929 –> 00:52:25.570
Speaker:
see if, you know, if there are

1557
00:52:25.570 –> 00:52:26.690
Speaker:
criminal records up there or

1558
00:52:26.690 –> 00:52:28.030
Speaker:
whatever, you know, that kind of

1559
00:52:28.030 –> 00:52:28.250
Speaker:
thing.

1560
00:52:28.250 –> 00:52:30.619
Speaker:
But I mean, like, if they got in

1561
00:52:30.619 –> 00:52:33.039
Speaker:
a fight in the yard and then

1562
00:52:33.039 –> 00:52:34.099
Speaker:
that happened.

1563
00:52:34.099 –> 00:52:34.900
Speaker:
Nobody heard.

1564
00:52:34.900 –> 00:52:38.019
Speaker:
Nobody heard it in the house,
like quote unquote.

1565
00:52:38.019 –> 00:52:39.780
Speaker:
Like, I don’t know, he just

1566
00:52:39.780 –> 00:52:42.380
Speaker:
seems like definitely one to

1567
00:52:42.380 –> 00:52:43.380
Speaker:
look at.

1568
00:52:43.380 –> 00:52:44.940
Speaker:
It’s also, it’s unbelievable for

1569
00:52:44.940 –> 00:52:46.179
Speaker:
me that no one heard anything in

1570
00:52:46.179 –> 00:52:46.619
Speaker:
the house.

1571
00:52:46.619 –> 00:52:47.579
Speaker:
I just can’t believe it.

1572
00:52:47.579 –> 00:52:49.019
Speaker:
Like somebody got murdered.

1573
00:52:49.019 –> 00:52:50.179
Speaker:
Like there was a I had to be a

1574
00:52:50.179 –> 00:52:51.420
Speaker:
fight or something and nobody

1575
00:52:51.420 –> 00:52:52.260
Speaker:
heard anything.

1576
00:52:52.260 –> 00:52:52.579
Speaker:
But.

1577
00:52:52.579 –> 00:52:54.480
Speaker:
Well, you said that, um, the

1578
00:52:54.480 –> 00:52:56.920
Speaker:
first stab got hurt, like got

1579
00:52:56.920 –> 00:52:57.139
Speaker:
hurt.

1580
00:52:57.139 –> 00:52:57.619
Speaker:
Right?

1581
00:52:57.619 –> 00:53:00.780
Speaker:
Oh, maybe if he just walked in
and did it, then maybe there was

1582
00:53:00.780 –> 00:53:05.059
Speaker:
no noise and it just, you know,
but if he was in a rage, if he’s

1583
00:53:05.059 –> 00:53:07.739
Speaker:
stabbing and I mean, I don’t
know, maybe there was a loud

1584
00:53:07.739 –> 00:53:08.539
Speaker:
music or something.

1585
00:53:08.539 –> 00:53:12.539
Speaker:
Maybe there was I, I don’t know,
seems like somebody.

1586
00:53:12.539 –> 00:53:13.380
Speaker:
I’m in the bathroom.

1587
00:53:13.380 –> 00:53:15.380
Speaker:
Like what you were in the
bathroom for what?

1588
00:53:15.380 –> 00:53:16.780
Speaker:
For when were you in the
bathroom?

1589
00:53:16.780 –> 00:53:17.820
Speaker:
Like exactly that moment.

1590
00:53:17.820 –> 00:53:18.380
Speaker:
How did you know that?

1591
00:53:18.380 –> 00:53:20.739
Speaker:
That was the moment that that
was happening?

1592
00:53:20.739 –> 00:53:22.460
Speaker:
Yeah, yeah, you know what I
mean?

1593
00:53:22.460 –> 00:53:23.940
Speaker:
Like, I was in the bathroom at
that time.

1594
00:53:23.940 –> 00:53:25.900
Speaker:
Well, at what time?

1595
00:53:25.900 –> 00:53:27.469
Speaker:
She was found at one.

1596
00:53:27.469 –> 00:53:29.750
Speaker:
But that doesn’t mean that’s
when she was actually killed.

1597
00:53:29.750 –> 00:53:30.550
Speaker:
Huh?

1598
00:53:30.550 –> 00:53:31.070
Speaker:
She was killed.

1599
00:53:31.070 –> 00:53:32.789
Speaker:
Well, so the the timeline is

1600
00:53:32.789 –> 00:53:34.710
Speaker:
between midnight and one was

1601
00:53:34.710 –> 00:53:36.070
Speaker:
when she was killed because the

1602
00:53:36.070 –> 00:53:38.510
Speaker:
guy let her borrow the money at

1603
00:53:38.510 –> 00:53:39.269
Speaker:
around midnight.

1604
00:53:39.269 –> 00:53:40.510
Speaker:
He says.

1605
00:53:40.510 –> 00:53:43.949
Speaker:
And so when he comes back at one
o’clock or whatever, you know,

1606
00:53:43.949 –> 00:53:45.750
Speaker:
she’s has been murdered.

1607
00:53:45.750 –> 00:53:48.989
Speaker:
So it’s between midnight and one
a m that, according to the

1608
00:53:48.989 –> 00:53:51.349
Speaker:
timeline from that guy that she
borrowed money from, that would

1609
00:53:51.349 –> 00:53:52.829
Speaker:
be the timeline.

1610
00:53:52.829 –> 00:53:54.570
Speaker:
And the coroner, uh, Annie

1611
00:53:54.570 –> 00:53:55.909
Speaker:
Groves says that she had been

1612
00:53:55.909 –> 00:53:56.989
Speaker:
dead a very short period of

1613
00:53:56.989 –> 00:53:57.349
Speaker:
time.

1614
00:53:57.349 –> 00:53:59.429
Speaker:
So she.

1615
00:53:59.429 –> 00:54:03.349
Speaker:
Yeah, it was not it was it was
between midnight and one that

1616
00:54:03.349 –> 00:54:04.750
Speaker:
that actually happened.

1617
00:54:04.750 –> 00:54:05.110
Speaker:
Yeah.

1618
00:54:05.110 –> 00:54:06.929
Speaker:
So I would think that like,

1619
00:54:06.929 –> 00:54:08.349
Speaker:
maybe the music wouldn’t be loud

1620
00:54:08.349 –> 00:54:09.389
Speaker:
then, but I don’t really know

1621
00:54:09.389 –> 00:54:12.110
Speaker:
because I’m like, that’s past

1622
00:54:12.110 –> 00:54:12.949
Speaker:
the time you should have your

1623
00:54:12.949 –> 00:54:13.469
Speaker:
music loud.

1624
00:54:13.469 –> 00:54:15.329
Speaker:
But I know that people don’t

1625
00:54:15.329 –> 00:54:16.829
Speaker:
like follow the rules a lot, you

1626
00:54:16.829 –> 00:54:17.309
Speaker:
know?

1627
00:54:17.309 –> 00:54:17.710
Speaker:
Yeah.

1628
00:54:17.710 –> 00:54:19.989
Speaker:
And if I mean, you have an old
lady living in the basement,

1629
00:54:19.989 –> 00:54:22.789
Speaker:
you’ve got somebody asleep on a
couch, passed out drunk or

1630
00:54:22.789 –> 00:54:24.349
Speaker:
whatever, and you’ve got
somebody in the bathroom and

1631
00:54:24.349 –> 00:54:25.969
Speaker:
somebody’s watching Matlock.

1632
00:54:25.969 –> 00:54:26.530
Speaker:
Somebody’s watching.

1633
00:54:26.530 –> 00:54:29.289
Speaker:
Matlock is probably not, you
know.

1634
00:54:29.289 –> 00:54:31.329
Speaker:
You know, screaming Metallica or
something.

1635
00:54:31.329 –> 00:54:33.250
Speaker:
You know, whatever they were
listening to at that time.

1636
00:54:33.250 –> 00:54:36.170
Speaker:
Um, it could have been somebody
listening to music, but I don’t

1637
00:54:36.170 –> 00:54:37.929
Speaker:
know who it would have been
because they were all they all

1638
00:54:37.929 –> 00:54:38.690
Speaker:
seemed to have an alibi.

1639
00:54:38.690 –> 00:54:40.650
Speaker:
Was the guy in the bathroom
listening to music?

1640
00:54:40.650 –> 00:54:41.929
Speaker:
Um, yeah.

1641
00:54:41.929 –> 00:54:43.090
Speaker:
Yeah, I don’t know.

1642
00:54:44.130 –> 00:54:45.250
Speaker:
I don’t know.

1643
00:54:45.250 –> 00:54:46.610
Speaker:
So I don’t know that we’re ever

1644
00:54:46.610 –> 00:54:47.690
Speaker:
going to find an answer on this

1645
00:54:47.690 –> 00:54:47.969
Speaker:
one.

1646
00:54:47.969 –> 00:54:50.769
Speaker:
But hopefully, hopefully they do
get some answers.

1647
00:54:52.530 –> 00:54:55.389
Speaker:
If you have any information on
Elizabeth’s case that you think

1648
00:54:55.389 –> 00:54:58.409
Speaker:
may be relevant, call the
Evansville Police Department at

1649
00:54:58.409 –> 00:55:03.130
Speaker:
eight one two four three six
seven nine seven nine.

1650
00:55:03.130 –> 00:55:06.289
Speaker:
Even if you think it’s an
insignificant detail, maybe

1651
00:55:06.289 –> 00:55:08.809
Speaker:
it’ll be that one thing that
helps crack the case.

1652
00:55:08.809 –> 00:55:09.929
Speaker:

links.
