- 1:38that doesn't look very good for you and
- 1:40this is going to be your escape patch so
- 1:41to speak this is going to be the point
- 1:43where you stop all the lies and you stop
- 1:45all the fibs and you tell us exactly
- 1:46what's going on
- 1:48i'm just being you know being straight
- 1:50with you because obviously i know and
- 1:52you know that everything you told me is
- 1:54a lie correct
- 1:55not everything that i told you okay uh
- 1:58pretty much everything that you've told
- 1:59me including where kaylee is right now
- 2:01that i still i don't know where she is
- 2:03sure you do and here's absolutely listen
- 2:06let me let me explain something together
- 2:08a combined experience in this room we
- 2:10all have about 30 years of doing this
- 2:11okay both myself and sergeant john allen
- 2:14worked for the homicide division for
- 2:15several years we've dealt with several
- 2:17people we've we've conducted thousands
- 2:19of interviews between the three of us
- 2:21you know happy's got 20 years so just
- 2:23between the three of us we've got
- 2:24several years and i can tell you for a
- 2:26certainty that right now looking at you
- 2:28i know that everything that you've told
- 2:29me is a lie including the fact that you
- 2:32know
- 2:33your travel was not seen about a month
- 2:34ago
- 2:35and that you don't know where she is see
- 2:37i i i am very confident just by having
- 2:39talked to you this short period of time
- 2:40that you know where she is i don't you
- 2:43you do and here's the thing we need to
- 2:44get past that because we can sit here
- 2:46and go back and forth all day long about
- 2:48i don't i do i don't i do
- 2:50it's pretty obvious that with everything
- 2:52that you've told us
- 2:53nothing has been true
- 2:55you know where she is now my question to
- 2:57you is
- 2:58is this
- 2:59we need to find haley i understand that
- 3:02right now
- 3:03katie may not be
- 3:04in very good shape
- 3:06you understand what i'm saying she may
- 3:08not be
- 3:09the way we thought or what your family
- 3:11last remembers her we need to find out
- 3:14from you
- 3:15where kaylee is
- 3:16this this this right now is just this is
- 3:18going so far downhill and this has
- 3:20become such a mess that we need to end
- 3:22it
- 3:23it's very simple we just need to end it
- 3:24i agree with you i have no clue where
- 3:26she is
- 3:27i knew
- 3:28in any sense where she was this wouldn't
- 3:31have happened at all
- 3:33whatsoever this the stuff about about
- 3:35zany the the
- 3:36caretaker or the nanny taking care of it
- 3:39it's not the truth because it went to
- 3:41the apartment complex there's no person
- 3:42that ever lived there by that name the
- 3:43apartment's been vacant since march the
- 3:45same apartment now the apartment that
- 3:47you pointed out to me the two-story
- 3:48apartment that's an old folks home it's
- 3:50right across the street from your
- 3:51ex-boyfriend's house who you never
- 3:53mentioned and you said you wrote the
- 3:54address down because it was across the
- 3:55street that's a lot because i've already
- 3:57talked to him and we've already been by
- 3:59the house and we've already you know
- 4:00looked at everything we need to look at
- 4:01over there everything you felt is a lie
- 4:04well now there's a couple of ways that
- 4:05this goes right now
- 4:07we can
- 4:08you know we i've never met you before so
- 4:10i can look at you in one couple of ways
- 4:12i can look at you as a person who's
- 4:14scared
- 4:14who's concerned
- 4:16and who's kind of afraid of what's going
- 4:18to happen because of something bad that
- 4:19happened before
- 4:20or we can look at you as cold
- 4:23callous and a monster who doesn't care
- 4:26who's just trying to get away with
- 4:27something that that something bad that
- 4:28happened and trying to cover it up
- 4:30it's going to be one of those two
- 4:31options
- 4:32now
- 4:34as for much of what i've already talked
- 4:35to you okay you seem like a very bright
- 4:37young lady you don't seem like someone
- 4:39who has no education all right now what
- 4:42we have to do is we have to determine
- 4:43which way is this going to go are you
- 4:45are you a person who who's scared about
- 4:47the consequences of what happened or are
- 4:49you scared about something that happened
- 4:51or are you are you really this cold
- 4:53callous person who doesn't care about
- 4:54what happened is it one of these two
- 4:56options
- 4:57i'm scared that i don't know where my
- 4:59daughter is
- 5:00so i would not have put my entire face
- 5:03i want to ask you something yes sir
- 5:06like you said you you you seem like a
- 5:08pretty bright person okay you're here
- 5:10willingly right you're here because you
- 5:12want you're here to try to help right oh
- 5:14absolutely your whole reason for talking
- 5:16to us is is to try to help right
- 5:19nobody's forced you to talk to us right
- 5:21you once you want to you're here because
- 5:24you called you want us to find your
- 5:25daughter right
- 5:26now let me let me ask you something
- 5:29i want you to put yourself in
- 5:32push yourself in somebody else
- 5:34put something mushy from that okay
- 5:37since
- 5:37you talked to him this morning in an
- 5:39attempt
- 5:40to try to help find your daughter
- 5:43you've given him bad addresses okay
- 5:46you drove me all the way out here
- 5:49we walked from the gate back here

- 5:53okay
- 5:55to to an office that you don't have we
- 5:57got all the way into the building
- 5:59into the hallway out here before you
- 6:01finally says well i really don't have an
- 6:02office here but then we were walking to
- 6:04your office right
- 6:06okay so is it i mean does any of this
- 6:07make sense to you
- 6:09i understand how well that sounds no no
- 6:11no no here's the problem with that
- 6:13though here's the problem that okay
- 6:16you can carry the weight of this around
- 6:18for a long time it's not going to get
- 6:19any easier okay
- 6:21what he's trying to tell you right now
- 6:22i'm going to tell you
- 6:24you know in in the amount of time that
- 6:25i've done this
- 6:27almost 30 years now okay
- 6:29i've learned this people make mistakes
- 6:31everybody makes mistakes we every all
- 6:34the three of us have all made some
- 6:36mistake mistakes in our lives we've done
- 6:38some things we're not proud of okay
- 6:40but then there comes a point in time you
- 6:42either own up to it you say you're sorry
- 6:44you try to get past it or you lie about
- 6:46it you bury it you lie about it you bury
- 6:48it you lie about you bury it and it just
- 6:50never ever ever ever ever goes away
- 6:54okay
- 6:56that's it okay now you know
- 6:58you know i want you to stop and think
- 7:01about what's going on here okay
- 7:04at this point
- 7:06we can explain that you're afraid you
- 7:10know that you were ashamed of maybe
- 7:12something bad that happened you're
- 7:13afraid maybe what happened but now that
- 7:15we're giving you this opportunity and
- 7:16you continue to lie and you continue to
- 7:18lie then what happens at some point it
- 7:20becomes
- 7:21there's no excuse there's no reason
- 7:23there's no reasonable a reasonable
- 7:25person to look at us and go
- 7:27wow this is a person who really just
- 7:29doesn't care
- 7:31okay
- 7:32i mean i mean i mean think about what
- 7:33we've done so far okay you say you call
- 7:36us because you want our help he wants to
- 7:39find your daughter okay
- 7:40i'm calling you and i'm asking you for
- 7:42help i'm asking you to help me find my
- 7:44child that's been gone now for a month
- 7:46okay
- 7:47and to help you help me find the child
- 7:49what i've done to this point as i've
- 7:51given you a bunch of bad addresses to go
- 7:53look at addresses and people that don't
- 7:55exist okay then i take you to a place
- 7:57where i tell you that i work okay
- 7:59and i walk you past the security gate
- 8:01okay all the way to my office that i
- 8:04don't have
- 8:05okay
- 8:06you start getting a picture
- 8:08or just is this do you understand where
- 8:10we're headed here i understand okay now
- 8:13you know
- 8:15you're by hiding this by burying this
- 8:18okay you are not going to get yourself
- 8:20to a better place okay
- 8:22what you're going to do is you're going
- 8:23to cause everybody else around you to
- 8:25suffer okay
- 8:27and then at some point this is going to
- 8:29come out it always does it always comes
- 8:32out okay
- 8:33now
- 8:34your best bet is to try to put this
- 8:36behind you as quickly as you can go to
- 8:38your parents and tell them you know some
- 8:40horrible accident whatever happened
- 8:42happened get out in the open now okay
- 8:44instead of letting them worry worry
- 8:46worry and worry okay how old are you
- 8:49at some point okay
- 8:51you're going to want to
- 8:53to mend things with your family okay you
- 8:56let this drag out for another three days
- 8:58another week another two weeks okay you
- 9:01make us solve this some other way and
- 9:03we'll solve it we always do okay
- 9:06okay
- 9:07i mean
- 9:08there's no point in coming forward to
- 9:10say oh my god this is what really
- 9:12happened once we figured it out okay you
- 9:15ever had anybody do anything wrong to
- 9:16you everybody hurt you in any way okay
- 9:18let me ask you a question when
- 9:20somebody's hurt you in the past
- 9:22and they've come to you and said i'm
- 9:23sorry okay i really i'm from the bottom
- 9:26of my heart i'm sorry for what happened
- 9:28do you forgive them
- 9:30what about somebody that does something
- 9:32to you and in their lives
- 9:34lies lies lies and lies you forgive them
- 9:38it's a lot harder too sometimes a lot
- 9:40harder to
- 9:42come the last time somebody hurts you
- 9:43over and over and lets you suffer for a
- 9:46period of time and and lied about it
- 9:48then you caught them okay well once they
- 9:51once you caught them that apology didn't
- 9:52mean a hell of a lot did it okay
- 9:55all right
- 9:56right now your best bet is to just get
- 9:58it out in the open whatever happened and
- 10:01tell us now okay so we can we can kind
- 10:03of start getting passes try to help you
- 10:06explain okay because keep in mind you're
- 10:08talking to people there's nothing you're
- 10:09going to tell any of the three of us
- 10:11that's going to surprise us okay
- 10:12i had to sit down with with with mothers
- 10:15who
- 10:16rolled over their babies accidentally
- 10:18i've had to sit down with mothers whose
- 10:20kids have drowned in swimming pools i've
- 10:23had to sit down with mothers who had
- 10:25boyfriends who beat their kids to death
- 10:27uh you know who felt horrible about what
- 10:29happened and then try not to have to go
- 10:32to them and help them try to explain to
- 10:33their families
- 10:34okay
- 10:36and then i've also had to
- 10:38deal with people who have done
- 10:40horrible unspeakable things to children
- 10:43and then lied about it and lied about it
- 10:45and lied about it okay
- 10:47and i'll bet you somewhere in there i've
- 10:49probably dealt with somebody who maybe
- 10:50made a mistake but continued to lie
- 10:52about it maybe they weren't such a bad
- 10:54person but maybe the whole world didn't
- 10:56see it that way
- 10:57maybe their family didn't see it that
- 10:58way because they kept lying lying and
- 11:00lying and lie about it and then when it
- 11:01finally came in and in months down the
- 11:03road or you know days down the road when
- 11:05they finally decided to come forward
- 11:06okay people were past it you told me
- 11:09that you lied to me for the last time i
- 11:10don't listen what you have to say don't
- 11:12talk to me okay you know we've we've had
- 11:15to you know we've had to go into court
- 11:17and try to help people explain
- 11:18situations and we had to go into court
- 11:20in times and say you know
- 11:22the person just never said they kept
- 11:23lying to us and kept lying to us and
- 11:25lying to us and lying to us okay we're
- 11:27all human beings okay
- 11:29you tell me
- 11:31i mean
- 11:32you know you're a smart person figure it
- 11:34out okay so far well the only thing that
- 11:36we can say for sure
- 11:38at this point okay
- 11:40is that you have lied to him about all
- 11:43these things you brought us here okay
- 11:47all right i want you to look at this
- 11:49from an outsider's perspective
- 11:51somebody somewhere down the road they
- 11:52have to decide you know how this all
- 11:54plays out what would you do
- 11:57how would you see that person
- 11:59how did you see that person different
- 12:00than you might see somebody maybe a
- 12:02young mother who made a mistake and you
- 12:03know maybe initially was afraid to tell
- 12:05the truth but at some point came forward
- 12:07and said horrible thing happened i'm
- 12:09sorry i feel terrible about it but i
- 12:11have to tell you
- 12:13the horrible thing that happened and
- 12:15this is the honesty guys truth of
- 12:17everything that i've said i do not know
- 12:19where she is
- 12:20the last person that i saw her with is
- 12:22denial she's the last person that i've
- 12:25seen my daughter with and see here
- 12:26here's the problem i i think sergeant
- 12:28alice started out trying to get to this
- 12:30is that we we know that's not the truth
- 12:32you know listen
- 12:34we know that that's not true that can't
- 12:36be the truth because if that were the
- 12:37truth everything you would have told us
- 12:39would have been on the money the
- 12:41addresses you would have taken this
- 12:42would have been on the money everything
- 12:44else would have matched
- 12:45if you told us the truth we wouldn't be
- 12:47here at universal studios at a place
- 12:50that you've been fired since 2006
- 12:52were you trying to explain to us you
- 12:54know you have an office and and all that
- 12:55stuff who wouldn't be here
- 12:57so we know and this is the part we need
- 12:59to get past we we already know that
- 13:01you're not telling us the truth that you
- 13:02know what happened to kaylee you know
- 13:03where keeley is but here's here's here's
- 13:06what we're trying to get by is that
- 13:07there's
- 13:08you're one of you fall into one of two
- 13:10categories and i'm sure he explained it
- 13:11and i explained it is that
- 13:13if this is something that an accident
- 13:14that happened and
- 13:16no matter
- 13:17how you think people are going to look
- 13:19at you they're going to look at you a
- 13:20lot worse if they show if you continue
- 13:22showing that you're callous or not
- 13:24caring and that you just show complete
- 13:27dispassion and disregard for human life
- 13:29or they can look at you as someone that
- 13:31you know what i can understand i'm a
- 13:32young mother or she's a young mother
- 13:34first child something horrible happened
- 13:37she's thinking oh my god my life isn't
- 13:38going good right now i already know my
- 13:40life is struggling people don't see me
- 13:42in that great of a light i know i got
- 13:43problems at home and i've got problems
- 13:45with friends i know i got problems with
- 13:46work or lack of work all of a sudden
- 13:48something bad happens to my child and
- 13:49people are going to think i'm just a
- 13:51devil
- 13:52see
- 13:53there's a difference between this person
- 13:54who makes a mistake and says listen i'm
- 13:56i'm sorry this is the reason i i lied to
- 13:59you this is the reason i was scared
- 14:01compared to the person who might sit
- 14:02here and say i have no idea what you're
- 14:04talking about
- 14:06there's a big difference there and i can
- 14:08tell you now that everything you told me
- 14:09is a lot everything that you've told me
- 14:11this morning from from zany from the
- 14:14addresses from universal from all these
- 14:15people that you've talked to including
- 14:17people that you never told me their

- 14:19them
- 14:20you know
- 14:21everything that you've told me this
- 14:22morning is a lie every single thing
- 14:24that there's one of two options right
- 14:26now
- 14:27you need to tell me the truth and we can
- 14:30work with that
- 14:31or if you continue down this path and
- 14:33continue lying i can tell you that when
- 14:34this snowball gets at the bottom of the
- 14:36hill the only person that's going to get
- 14:38hurt in it is you

- 21:21i'm sorry is the baby's daddy actually
- 21:24dead
- 21:25it's a good question
- 21:27would you
- 21:32i mean you've told us some so many
- 21:34untruths right now i'm confused would
- 21:36your parents be upset if you had given
- 21:37the baby back to the daddy to take back
- 21:39for his grandparents for his parents to
- 21:41take care of he passed away last year we
- 21:43hadn't even talked much before that
- 21:46let me ask you this
- 21:48is the obituary in your office
- 21:50no i think i have a copy of the
- 21:52auditorium there's no office so there's
- 21:54no
- 21:55anything anywhere we've made that clear
- 21:57already
- 21:58so
- 21:59if i have a copy of it still it would be
- 22:01on my computer at home
- 22:03i'm pretty sure i kept that i don't
- 22:05think that's something i would have
- 22:06gotten right
- 22:08zany has never worked here
- 22:10how do you explain that she has an id
- 22:13she has an id with her name on it she's
- 22:14like you have just like you have an id i
- 22:16do have an id somewhere at my house both
- 22:18of my parents have seen it because my
- 22:20parents know that i've worked here i
- 22:21used to have an office
- 22:23now just like you have an office no
- 22:27and we're here to go to what to do what
- 22:30we're here because why
- 22:33try and put things together now we're
- 22:35here in this building because
- 22:40we put a lot more together than i think
- 22:41you realize we put together my question
- 22:44to you is we're in this office because
- 22:46we got here because
- 22:48we got here how to do what
- 22:50our purpose in coming here was to do
- 22:52what
- 22:53go where
- 22:55i guess there wasn't a purpose there
- 22:56wasn't a purpose whatsoever to come up
- 22:58here so we're wasting time valuable time
- 23:00without to be spent looking for your
- 23:01daughter
- 23:03i'm trying to think of places where i
- 23:04know she's been you're not answering my
- 23:06question do you want us to help can you
- 23:07help us find your daughter do you want
- 23:08you well then you need to help
- 23:11a good starting point would be to answer
- 23:13the questions okay
- 23:14if i say you we're here because and then
- 23:17you just ignore that like as if i never
- 23:19asked it and go off in some other
- 23:20direction is that answering the question
- 23:23okay all right let's go through this
- 23:25again we're here because
- 23:27we got here how to do what
- 23:29because i lied because i brought you up
- 23:32here
- 23:33and honestly i was reaching for no stop
- 23:35right here i want you to tell me how
- 23:37lying to us is going to help us find
- 23:39your daughter it's not going to
- 23:41it's not great well if if your big if
- 23:44the main thing you want to do is find
- 23:45your daughter and you don't think lying
- 23:47to us is going to help us find her why
- 23:48would you do that
- 23:52because i'm scared and i know i'm
- 23:54running out of options it's been a month
- 23:56what are you scared of i'm scared of not
- 23:58seeing my daughter ever again okay if
- 23:59you're scared if you're scared of not
- 24:02seeing your daughter again okay i want
- 24:04you to tell me how lying to us is going
- 24:06to solve that problem and help find your
- 24:09daughter quicker
- 24:10because if that's what you want okay
- 24:12obviously you're doing things to help us
- 24:14find your daughter right and i want you
- 24:15to tell me how lying to us
- 24:17is getting to that end how is lying to
- 24:19us helping find your daughter faster
- 24:22it isn't then why would you do that but
- 24:24saying i don't know and telling you that
- 24:26i just dropped her off and that was the
- 24:27last time that i've seen her even
- 24:29starting with that everybody else was
- 24:30like well and what happened after that
- 24:33that can't just be it you remember the
- 24:34phone call you were telling us about
- 24:36is that true yeah did you actually talk
- 24:38what day was that you talked to
- 24:39yesterday
- 24:40you know what time of day around noon it
- 24:42was from a private number okay what'd
- 24:44she tell you what'd your daughter say to
- 24:46you she said hi mommy that's it and she
- 24:49started telling me a story talking to me
- 24:50about her shoes and books it's important
- 24:53that you tell me i mean maybe there's
- 24:54something in what she said that can help
- 24:56us figure out where she is what did she
- 24:58say i tried to ask her where she was and
- 25:00she just kept talking about the book
- 25:02that she's been reading we have videos
- 25:03of her reading the story and she's
- 25:05telling me the story so she's happy
- 25:07she's happy
- 25:09she's fine
- 25:10there's nothing in the background
- 25:12telling you about a book having seen
- 25:14not no sign of any type of stress at all
- 25:17not at all great that's wonderful let me
- 25:19ask you a question your daughter hasn't
- 25:20seen you in over a month
- 25:22and she's not she's she was excited she
- 25:24was excited sorry to talk to me but at
- 25:27the same time
- 25:29it's crazy that she didn't get upset
- 25:31when she talked to me which yeah it had
- 25:33been my mom is that another thing
- 25:35that makes sense to you
- 25:37she never gets upset when she talks to
- 25:39me whether i haven't seen her for an
- 25:41entire day or if i had to work late at
- 25:44night i didn't see her almost an entire
- 25:45day until then last time the last time
- 25:48somebody took her and you didn't see her
- 25:50from five weeks was when
- 25:52never okay
- 25:54now
- 25:54you haven't seen her in five weeks she's
- 25:56not seeing you in five weeks
- 25:58okay she's been with this woman for
- 26:00somebody for five weeks
- 26:02hasn't been to her own home hasn't seen
- 26:04her mother in five weeks
- 26:06it's that didn't upset her
- 26:08she was fine she's talking about
- 26:10talking about the book i mean it's all
- 26:11that stuff you're saying true she's
- 26:12always been like that though i don't
- 26:14understand how okay but i'm getting
- 26:16better let's get back to you you say
- 26:18this has never happened before
- 26:20she's never not seen you for five weeks
- 26:23but now she now after five weeks of not
- 26:25seeing her mother
- 26:27not talking to her mother okay
- 26:30she finally talks to her mother for five
- 26:31weeks
- 26:32you're at you ask her where she is you
- 26:34begin asking these questions and she
- 26:36just wants to talk about the book she's
- 26:37happy she's not worried doesn't seem
- 26:39upset
- 26:41she's always like that you can even ask
- 26:43my mom she's the same okay let me go
- 26:45back to the boom is the last time
- 26:47you didn't see her five weeks was the
- 26:48last time something like this happened
- 26:50where she was gone and you didn't see it
- 26:51for five weeks the last time this
- 26:53happened when never okay so this is the
- 26:55first time this is the first time i've
- 26:57been away from her for more than a day
- 26:58okay
- 26:59you the first time you've ever been away
- 27:01from her for more than a day and she
- 27:03wasn't the least bit upset when you talk
- 27:05to her on the phone she wasn't the least
- 27:06bit upset when she went on about i
- 27:08didn't know i miss you mommy you know
- 27:09that i just thought that she talked like
- 27:11you said she talked about the book and
- 27:13all that stuff right that's it and when
- 27:14i asked her to give her the phone to
- 27:16another adult to somebody else
- 27:19she was fine she was willing to do it
- 27:20but the phone hung up
- 27:22she doesn't hang out
- 27:25i know that's the phone's called you're
- 27:26on that or your cell phone yes can i see
- 27:28that real quick
- 27:31now if this is the first time she's ever
- 27:33been gone for away from me for more than
- 27:35a day i'm a parent too i would have been
- 27:38i would have been just
- 27:39beside myself i have been i would have
- 27:41called the police immediately and that's
- 27:43the part that i just don't understand
- 27:45well we've got so many resources out
- 27:47there that we could help on day one you
- 27:50didn't know what to do i didn't know
- 27:51what to do at that point i'm thinking
- 27:53okay they haven't been gone that long
- 27:55maybe i can find them maybe i can track
- 27:56them down that first day they haven't
- 27:58been gone that long not first right
- 28:01that very first day
- 28:03that all of this happened that i went to
- 28:05pick up haley and she wasn't there
- 28:07initially my thought is
- 28:09that they went out to do something for a
- 28:11little bit maybe i just missed a phone
- 28:13call maybe i didn't get the call or the
- 28:15text message maybe something fell
- 28:17through the crack that's happened before
- 28:20but now after that right i understand
- 28:21all that okay i want you to focus on
- 28:24what we're doing here okay
- 28:26all right
- 28:27because i want to make sure we get this
- 28:28right after after having after having
- 28:30not seen your daughter or fight or heard
- 28:32from or not knowing your daughter was at
- 28:35for five weeks
- 28:37she calls you on the phone
- 28:39you have a conversation with her where
- 28:41she talks about the books and other
- 28:42stuff
- 28:44then you ask her to speak to an adult
- 28:46and then she hangs up
- 28:47or the phone hangs up okay correct she
- 28:50can't
- 28:51hold on hold on
- 28:52okay you have this conversation with her
- 28:54after not seeing her hearing for five
- 28:56weeks
- 28:57the phone calls terminated you don't get
- 28:59a chance to talk to an adult okay the
- 29:02very next thing you do after that is
- 29:03what call the police because now
- 29:05something really strange is absolutely
- 29:06you must have called the police right at
- 29:08that did you call the city police or do
- 29:10you remember who you called
- 29:11which police agency did you call
- 29:12yesterday i didn't call anybody at noon
- 29:15after i got that phone call i sat down
- 29:17you didn't think that was odd this
- 29:19conversation i thought it was extremely
- 29:21odd
- 29:22but not odd enough to call the police
- 29:23and try to get
- 29:25let me let me let me throw something if
- 29:27you don't mind sure uh
- 29:29rick is at the office and makes
- 29:31finishing up the interview and that was
- 29:32actually mick calling me uh you know
- 29:34ricardo right obviously your
- 29:35ex-boyfriend who brought him down to the
- 29:36office and he's been talking to a couple
- 29:37of our detectives down there and he was
- 29:39able to help us because he's telling us
- 29:42something obviously completely different
- 29:43than what you're telling us and i was
- 29:44just able to tell him that he pulled the
- 29:46surveillance camera from the video
- 29:47across the street at that old folks home
- 29:49that you drove me by
- 29:50and uh we're gonna get it enhanced to
- 29:52see if we could actually get some good
- 29:54detail on pictures and faces but ricardo
- 29:56was saying that he spent the night with
- 29:57him on the night and left on the 10th
- 29:59and this is being this is being
- 30:00corroborated right now which again shows
- 30:03that you're continuously lying about the
- 30:05ninth being the day that uh
- 30:09on the 9th of this month not of last
- 30:11month
- 30:12i was not at his place the 9th of that
- 30:15month so you stayed at your ex
- 30:16boyfriend's house in latin this month
- 30:18when you're staying at your other
- 30:19boyfriend's house tony the rest of the
- 30:21month he'd been out of town so staying
- 30:23over at another friend's place while he
- 30:25was gone that wasn't staying in his
- 30:27apartment
- 30:28i was staying with amy and ricardo and
- 30:31jp jp raparda owned the house
- 30:34so why didn't you tell us we were
- 30:36staying there we drove right by the
- 30:37house this morning didn't we when we
- 30:38went today okay and you're pointing at
- 30:40this old folks home which is another lie
- 30:42right because danny never lived there am
- 30:44i correct
- 30:45okay why were you pointing at this old
- 30:47folks home and saying zany lived there
- 30:49at one point when she didn't
- 30:52because she had gone there before right
- 30:54she went to the old folks home yes but
- 30:56but she never never dropped your kid off
- 30:57to her at an old folks home
- 30:59you never went into the old folk song
- 31:00and went to an apartment with her
- 31:02yet across the street from this old
- 31:04folks home right there on glenwood is
- 31:06where ricardo lives
- 31:07with amy and jp all of whom are at our
- 31:11station talking to our detectives right
- 31:12now so obviously you know
- 31:14we're not stupid okay and what you're
- 31:16doing right now is you're treating us
- 31:18like we're stupid and which i take that
- 31:20you know to be a personal insult i can't
- 31:22speak for them here here's where it
- 31:24comes down to
- 31:26none of us are sitting here believing
- 31:27what you're saying because everything
- 31:29that's coming out of your mouth is alive
- 31:31and unless we start getting the truth
- 31:33unless we start getting the truth
- 31:35we're going to announce two
- 31:36possibilities with kaylee if you give
- 31:38kaylee to someone and you don't want
- 31:40anyone to find out because you think
- 31:42you're a bad mom or something happened
- 31:43to kaylee and kaylee's buried somewhere
- 31:45or a trash can somewhere and you had
- 31:47something to do with it
- 31:48either way right now it's not a very
- 31:50pretty picture to be painting
- 31:51either way either way right now with
- 31:53everything that you're telling us you're
- 31:55painting yourself as a very bad person
- 31:57your family's gonna suffer for this your

- 37:57just gonna show up at your house no i
- 38:00sat around yesterday trying to figure
- 38:02out what to do i'm glad that i ended up
- 38:04seeing my mom that all of that stuff
- 38:06happened happened for a reason because
- 38:07you're glad you saw your mom let me ask
- 38:09you this
- 38:11you could have saw your mom five weeks
- 38:12ago said mom i don't know where you
- 38:14could have called your mom five weeks
- 38:15ago
- 38:16i saw my mom's reaction right off the
- 38:19bat and it would have been the same from
- 38:21the get-go
- 38:22well
- 38:23well
- 38:24so you're more afraid so wait a minute
- 38:26so
- 38:27you're more afraid of your mom's
- 38:28reaction than you are if you ever see
- 38:30your daughter again no i'm absolutely
- 38:32petrified
- 38:33absolutely petrified i know my mom will
- 38:35never forgive me i'm never going to
- 38:37forgive myself because there's that
- 38:39chance that i might not see kaylee again
- 38:41i don't want to think about well let me
- 38:42ask you let me ask you by lying to us
- 38:44and sending us all these goops out of
- 38:46these cases hold on a minute okay i want
- 38:49you to tell me okay this is a
- 38:51uh um i mean is it that there's some
- 38:53other thing more important in your life
- 38:55right now that maybe that you know but
- 38:57you just weren't kind of you just
- 38:58weren't really focused on uh what you
- 39:00were saying when you told us so yeah
- 39:02kind of just accidentally told us she
- 39:04had an office here and we needed to be
- 39:06here because we might find
- 39:08stuff that would help or victor lie to
- 39:10us perfectly where did you purposely
- 39:11just lead us
- 39:12which of those two is it
- 39:14purposely okay so you purposely misled
- 39:16us this was all an attempt to help find
- 39:18your daughter right
- 39:20that makes sense dude greg
- 39:23again in a backwards sort of way yes
- 39:26backwards i'm coming back to places that
- 39:28are familiar to me that i know are
- 39:29familiar to her
- 39:31familiar situations that
- 39:34maybe but just maybe she would help
- 39:36she's almost three she's almost three
- 39:38what do you think she's gonna take a cab
- 39:39here i mean how do you think she's gonna
- 39:41get here because she's with someone else
- 39:44if i could find her and find someone
- 39:46else
- 39:48okay hold on a second let's put this
- 39:49together to where it makes sense okay
- 39:51she's with someone else who's hid her
- 39:54from you for five weeks yes who let her
- 39:56call you on the phone yesterday but then
- 39:58hung up
- 39:59but you brought us here today because
- 40:00she might be here
- 40:02she could be anything
- 40:04that's true but why here why would it
- 40:06bother me ask this okay why would a
- 40:07person
- 40:08why would a person
- 40:10who has hid your daughter from you for
- 40:12five weeks
- 40:13okay
- 40:14bring her to the building that you used
- 40:17to work at
- 40:19i mean did you think you'd walk in or
- 40:21she'd be sitting in the lobby or okay
- 40:24well you brought us here to find her
- 40:27right
- 40:28because she thought maybe some weird
- 40:30sort of i think what you said backwards
- 40:32way
- 40:33that we find her here that this would
- 40:35help
- 40:35so i'm asking you she's been here within
- 40:37the last five weeks maybe they have
- 40:39something from up front her coming
- 40:41through the turnstiles i don't know
- 40:43so you think that this person who's hit
- 40:46her from you for five weeks
- 40:48okay that had her call you on the phone
- 40:50yesterday and tell you about this book
- 40:52she was reading and hung up
- 40:54would bring her to universal studios and
- 40:56in this office in particular not in this
- 40:59office coming to this you brought us
- 41:02you didn't take us to the turnstiles did
- 41:03you brought us here right right okay now
- 41:07when you when you told him about these
- 41:09other places that
- 41:10were wrong earlier today
- 41:12that was also an attempt to help us find
- 41:14her right these were other places that
- 41:16i've gone to and either seen kaylee or i
- 41:19know that her nanny has been too and you
- 41:21were completely truthful about it yes i
- 41:23was completely truthful about those
- 41:24places that we've been to i've been to
- 41:27those steps that's where i've dropped
- 41:28them now i'm not talking about the steps
- 41:30okay what about i'm talking about the
- 41:31other places
- 41:32the other houses i know hotel
- 41:35not the old folks home well so that was
- 41:38not really all the way true i know zanny
- 41:40has been to the old somewhere yeah
- 41:42pointing out he pointed the third floor
- 41:43window and he said well that's that's
- 41:44what's her name's bedroom and zany's
- 41:46bedroom is right below is on the other
- 41:47side that's what you're telling me
- 41:49so that was a lie
- 41:51and that was going to help find her how
- 41:52telling a lot about lying about that
- 41:54bedroom and where zandy's bedroom is
- 41:56that was going to help find her out
- 41:58huh it's not helping but why would you
- 42:01do it because we are i mean that's what
- 42:03we're here for right find her
- 42:05i don't know what else to do anymore if
- 42:07i knew where she was if something would
- 42:09have happened i would have admitted that
- 42:11do you think do you think do you believe
- 42:13picking up more lies that tell us will
- 42:14help us
- 42:18is your daughter in a better place
- 42:20no she's not
- 42:22are you worried about her i'm absolutely
- 42:23petrified if she was with her family
- 42:26right now she'd be in the best place
- 42:27she's not
- 42:30she's with someone that i absolutely do
- 42:33not trust
- 42:34and that i'm absolutely scared
- 42:36that that you don't trust yet with
- 42:38babysitting your daughter i don't trust
- 42:40her now
- 42:41because of what happened
- 42:43what point did you stop trusting her
- 42:45the moment that
- 42:47her phone was cut off and i couldn't get
- 42:49in contact with my daughter so you
- 42:51thought then man some something right
- 42:52something's wrong and when when you
- 42:54started thinking that something was
- 42:56wrong i wanted to which police age did
- 42:58you call first i was or the city police
- 43:00or who did you call first
- 43:02who did you go to for help first to help
- 43:04try to find her
- 43:06no one oh no okay all right
- 43:08okay
- 43:10well i'm glad we got that straightened
- 43:11out
- 43:16i can't think of anything else that i
- 43:18can say that that's going to convince
- 43:19you on how to do the right thing let's
- 43:21start let me talk to you outside about
- 43:22the surveillance station maybe but i
- 43:24have to use
- 43:35my one goal is
- 43:38regardless of how it happens like i said
- 43:40i don't care i will lie i will still do
- 43:43whatever i can to find my daughter
- 43:45i put that in my statement and i mean
- 43:47that with all of my heart i know but we
- 43:48don't want you we don't want you to lie
- 43:49because we work off of truth
- 43:52and
- 43:53we want to find your daughter as much as
- 43:54you do and i don't think you're a
- 43:56monster or anything like that i think
- 43:57you might have some pressures in your
- 43:58life
- 44:00who who puts who exerts the most
- 44:02pressure on you like my parents used to
- 44:04do me my mom does absolutely does she
- 44:07does she not think you care for your
- 44:09daughter good enough or
- 44:11yes i mean
- 44:12you're single your single mom
- 44:16got to be rough you'll never live up to
- 44:18your mother's expectations right at
- 44:20least not right now right
- 44:24is that
- 44:25and nobody means that i would ever do
- 44:27anything or let any harm come to that
- 44:29child
- 44:30she's the one thing in this world that i
- 44:31love more than anything and i understand
- 44:34that i believe it i see the tears in
- 44:35your eyes
- 44:36okay
- 44:38my concern is is i know from my years of
- 44:41experience i know what i know what young
- 44:44adults and young moms and dads can do
- 44:46when
- 44:47parents exert too much pressure on them
- 44:49they don't live up to their standards
- 44:50they don't so
- 44:52not that you would hurt your child but
- 44:54you might
- 44:55uh because you
- 44:57if your parent just constantly talks
- 45:00down on you makes you feel like crap
- 45:02you're not good enough
- 45:05the stuff that she says the thing that
- 45:06she said
- 45:08she's been right about everything what
- 45:09kind of things did she say
- 45:12she told me that
- 45:13i took advantage of her and she's right
- 45:15because
- 45:16for a very long time how did you take
- 45:18advantage of it by using credit cards
- 45:20when i had my own money i still used
- 45:22some of her money i went and bought
- 45:24material things for nothing right
- 45:26whether it was things for myself went
- 45:28out to eat right spend a little bit of
- 45:30time with friends or
- 45:32went took hayley shopping
- 45:34for whatever reason i was extremely
- 45:36selfish right i was extremely selfish
- 45:38for a few years quite a few years
- 45:42what about i don't know anything about
- 45:44this like i told you before i was just
- 45:46sitting at my desk and said hey come on
- 45:48it's something about a car it that am
- 45:50scott my car went out of gas i was
- 45:52driving actually to different places my
- 45:55car yes car that i bought from my
- 45:57brother three years ago okay
- 46:02sucks because i ran out of gas my gas
- 46:04gauge is obviously reading wrong the
- 46:06sensor could be wrong it showed i had
- 46:08half a tank of gas that it was empty
- 46:10when did it run out of gas
- 46:13but before or after your baby was
- 46:14missing
- 46:18i was definitely after yeah i was
- 46:21definitely afraid i guess in the parking
- 46:23lot of that check cash in store no it
- 46:25was right at the corner of goldenrod 50.
- 46:29as you can turn
- 46:31you get in that merging lane where sams
- 46:34is in the am scot right right right
- 46:36as you're going to get on to goldenrod
- 46:38from 50 that's where my car stalled
- 46:40right there
- 46:41so i had to get out to guys help me push
- 46:43it into that parking lot
- 46:45and i left two notes on the car even
- 46:47saying i was going to come back and put
- 46:48gas in it
- 46:49why is your mother saying that's her car
- 46:51or is she is that what i was still in my
- 46:53parents name it was my brother's car
- 46:55he ended up that was the car they bought
- 46:57my brother in high school obviously bob
- 46:59he bought the car he paid off the car
- 47:01and he sold his videos
- 47:03but not not officially without title
- 47:05training my parents kept the title
- 47:07whether for insurance purposes or
- 47:09whatever else they still kept in their
- 47:11name
- 47:12okay so the fact that it was at the
- 47:14check cashing place they just
- 47:16coincidentally because you ran out of
- 47:17gas
- 47:18it's not like you
- 47:19went there to cash a check you know you
- 47:22didn't go to the store
- 47:25i wasn't abandoning my car right it just
- 47:27happened circumstantially i ran out of
- 47:30gas right
- 47:31i had to call my boyfriend to me to come
- 47:33and pick me up
- 47:39wow

- 47:42do

- 48:00even when even when y'all were in good
- 48:02times did she would she send emails back
- 48:05and forth on occasion we would talk
- 48:06online not usually through emails so we
- 48:08might be able to track her we might be
- 48:09able to track her if i check my logs we
- 48:11could probably find her through instant
- 48:13messaging what would be great is if we
- 48:15could have our forensic computer guy
- 48:18take your computer with your permission
- 48:20and search it and he can probably track
- 48:22her
- 48:22by her
- 48:24aol or whatever account and maybe see
- 48:26because she's going to set up another
- 48:28account somewhere where she goes
- 48:30she's going to be something you'd be
- 48:31willing to do i'm okay with that yeah
- 48:34because i know that i have
- 48:35documentation on my computer somewhere
- 48:38okay well he can find it he what he does
- 48:40he makes a copy of what's on your
- 48:41computer so you don't lose anything on
- 48:43your computer
- 48:45and then he can search through it
- 48:47and uh
- 48:49maybe there's some clues there as far as
- 48:50where this lady
- 48:52has gotten off to
- 48:54um
- 48:55and when she was watching your baby she
- 48:57always for the year and a half almost
- 48:59two years almost two years was she
- 49:01always in that same building
- 49:03she had been at a house over in andover
- 49:06lakes for a while
- 49:07that was one of the main places was it
- 49:09her house or that one she would share
- 49:11there was a friend's house so it
- 49:12probably wasn't her name no it was not
- 49:15is that one of the addresses uh yuri had
- 49:18do you know that
- 49:20i do not know the address
- 49:22and overlays where's that
- 49:25dean and craig ford
- 49:27okay that's up
- 49:32do you remember how to get to that house
- 49:34so would you get the address maybe do a
- 49:36title search
- 49:38but she was probably just renting a room
- 49:40or i think she's just running a room
- 49:42there for a while she had a couple of
- 49:43the roommates i know the house wasn't in
- 49:45any of their names i think they were
- 49:46just
- 49:47running through did you know any of
- 49:49those roommates
- 49:50i have names i have two names for them
- 49:53but
- 49:54nothing have you given them to yuri

- 50:03you had any contact with them yeah
- 50:05have any way of getting a hold of
- 50:07themself i never really talked to that
- 50:09much anyway i think i probably saw them
- 50:11maybe a handful of times
- 50:13right their schedules were completely
- 50:14opposite of mine
- 50:18they were never really anybody that i
- 50:20met besides just in passing even with
- 50:23the boyfriend that was tonight i had
- 50:26last year i saw him maybe twice right
- 50:28they only dated a couple months it was
- 50:29never anything serious she never had him
- 50:32around kaylee or the other children to
- 50:34babysit so
- 50:36it was never an uncomfortable situation
- 50:38but this is
- 50:41so heart-wrenching because there was
- 50:42never a sign
- 50:44never a single sign that this was going
- 50:46to happen right do you know where she
- 50:47was from with the name like
- 50:49so right or whatever is in either
- 50:52she's mixed she's puerto rican and her
- 50:54father's black
- 50:55she's from new york
- 50:57from what i've been told that's where
- 50:59she was born
- 51:00she lived in miami she went to u of f
- 51:03and
- 51:04you said you went to colonial high
- 51:05school did you go to college afterwards

- 51:19i just wanted to do event planning
- 51:21period and
- 51:22working occasional events even before
- 51:25actually coming to the event department
- 51:27very part-time or as a seasonal employee
- 51:31there's just something i always wanted
- 51:32to do anyway
- 51:34right
- 51:36um
- 51:37when you were growing up you take any
- 51:38medicines or anything no
- 51:42uh your baby take any medicines didn't
- 51:44she need any medicine not at all she had
- 51:46good health she's had one cold and it
- 51:48lasted two days her entire life yeah
- 51:51wow she's been extremely healthy
- 51:58pediatrician
- 52:00who's your baby's pediatric dr silva
- 52:14the only people that were on the list
- 52:15was myself and both of my parents then
- 52:18my dad had come with me to a couple
- 52:19visits my mom i think came to one it was
- 52:21usually just kaylee and i
- 52:28favorite place to go
- 52:30i guess universal is one of them
- 52:32well as a theatrical thing of course but
- 52:35she like jay blanchard park going to
- 52:37lake underhill and walking around the
- 52:39lake
- 52:39where where abouts an apartment she
- 52:41liked the best the playgrounds she liked
- 52:44to just attempt to run around lake
- 52:46underhill she'd like to go and walk
- 52:49the big trail at jay blanchard park yeah
- 52:51that's a big tree oh yeah yeah we just
- 52:54finished walking that trail that's where
- 52:56the jogger was killed i believe
- 52:58it's a pretty park my mom didn't want me
- 53:00going out there to run for that reason
- 53:02yeah she didn't even want me running on
- 53:04the outside of our neighborhood around
- 53:06chickasaw for the longest time because
- 53:08of that
- 53:09i'm trying to think when you pull into
- 53:11the park
- 53:13is the playground off to the right if
- 53:14you're looking at the treats
- 53:17which one did she play at she's played
- 53:19at both of them but usually the bigger
- 53:21one that's down towards where the y is
- 53:23right that's the one she like the most
- 53:25cause there's more things to climb on
- 53:27and for her to run around there's
- 53:28usually a lot more little kids yeah
- 53:31and there's swings when was the last
- 53:32time she was there
- 53:34the last time i know that she was there
- 53:36was the end of may
- 53:38i took her in april a couple times i've
- 53:41taken a few times myself this year the
- 53:43last time that i know that she went with
- 53:44someone other than myself at the end of
- 53:46my end of may
- 53:48and she
- 53:49last used last summer june and 9th
- 53:52on monday
- 54:01do you remember what y'all did on june
- 54:02the 8th
- 54:04i can't think of what i did but
- 54:08anything significant
- 54:09i think i might have been at tony's i
- 54:11think my mom took haley up to see her
- 54:13parents and outdoors she either took her
- 54:14up there that saturday
- 54:16is my boyfriend's apartment oh okay
- 54:30so that was like a day visit
- 54:32for my parents or for my mom yeah maybe
- 54:34my mom goes up there even just by
- 54:36herself or with my dad or if i go up
- 54:38there with her
- 54:39it's usually just your mom
- 54:41that's your your current boyfriend right
- 54:43is that what she said
- 54:45so your mom will go there and she she's
- 54:47like my mom will go up to mount dora to
- 54:48see her parents oh okay
- 54:51and your your boyfriend's happy to live
- 54:53over too they're not no he lives off of
- 54:55university oh
- 54:57okay i got you
- 54:59so your baby went up there with your mom
- 55:01to see her parents
- 55:04see her great grandparents yeah how old
- 55:06are they
- 55:07oh my grandfather's i think 88 maybe wow
- 55:11and my grandmother's probably 82 83.
- 55:32that's my partner he's going on a cruise
- 55:36to
- 55:36bahamas i think
- 55:38was that three day four night or year
- 55:41four day three night or something like
- 55:42that
- 55:44that'd be nice i guess but i don't like
- 55:46boats
- 55:48so
- 55:53man i just don't know everything that
- 55:54was asked of you and i just don't know
- 55:57you're you're our biggest help you're
- 55:58going to be our biggest help in solving
- 56:00this i have nothing to go off of that's
- 56:02the problem
- 56:04i have perspective ideas of maybe where
- 56:06she could go at the same time
- 56:09she could have gone back up to new york
- 56:10she could have gone up to jacksonville
- 56:11where we have a friend could have gone
- 56:13down to miami where her mom and her
- 56:14sister live now she could have gone
- 56:17anywhere did she have any children no
- 56:19and we're talking about the babysitter
- 56:20right
- 56:21she didn't have any children could could
- 56:23she have children was it something that
- 56:24she could have done i'm pretty sure that
- 56:26she could that was never anything that
- 56:28come came up
- 56:37i love this child you know i wish you
- 56:39were mine or anything like that or never
- 56:41that i had witnessed or anybody else had
- 56:43ever told me she used to just say how
- 56:45much she loved katelyn that she was such
- 56:46a good kid
- 56:48and you know she was very very proud of
- 56:50how she was being raised right it was
- 56:52always good praise but more of
- 56:54things that i've heard from other
- 56:56friends nothing that
- 56:57sounded out of the ordinary that was
- 56:59ever strange or
- 57:00weird right
- 57:02but then this just
- 57:04happened
- 57:05she was nonchalant with me the morning
- 57:07of everything was perfectly fine
- 57:11and when you contacted when you would
- 57:13call like you would drop
- 57:15baby off in the morning or for the day
- 57:18or
- 57:19was it because you had to go to work and
- 57:21she was watching would you call during
- 57:23the day
- 57:28or send a text message or if i was
- 57:29online just to make sure that everything
- 57:31was okay or she would occasionally call
- 57:33me
- 57:33can you get online here or
- 57:35can you send text messages
- 57:38i usually just use my phone oh okay i
- 57:40usually
- 57:42text from well use my computer instant
- 57:44message from
- 57:45you know anywhere else where i have
- 57:47access
- 57:48well once again i mean that phone
- 57:50i'm not an electronic geek but i mean
- 57:53the phone might have some valuable clues
- 57:55in there that can help us try to track
- 57:57down maybe the bad thing is it only
- 57:58saves 20 calls at a time
- 58:02text messages it only
- 58:04saves the messages that i receive it
- 58:06doesn't show anything that i send that's
- 58:08why i pulled up a list of stuff for them
- 58:10is that a boost phone no it's a nokia
- 58:13it's an 18 t phone it's probably one of
- 58:16the cheapest cheapest crappiest simplest
- 58:18ones but the phone the phone company
- 58:20your service will have your telephones
- 58:22itemized for
- 58:24your video
- 58:25incoming and outgoing incoming and
- 58:27outgoing the thing is do you have those
- 58:29itemized bills for
- 58:31i printed off the ones for july did you
- 58:33give them to yuri okay we did last night
- 58:36actually i put them on
- 58:38a zip drive form i gave them my zip
- 58:39drive that has pictures
- 58:41and it has two different word documents
- 58:44one has my text messages one they were
- 58:46sent to what number and ones that i
- 58:48received it didn't show the actual
- 58:50message itself but it at least showed
- 58:52text message sent at this time to such
- 58:54and such number right same thing with
- 58:56the phone list i just need to go back
- 58:58through go back on the singular website
- 59:00and find the other mods
- 59:02right
- 59:03and i know she's had at least three
- 59:05different phone numbers in the last
- 59:07almost four years that i've met her
- 59:08mm-hmm
- 59:10and i know that she was on two different
- 59:11phone plans
- 59:13and she lived in two different places
- 59:15since did you know
- 59:17she's lived since she's been watching
- 59:18your childhood no she's lived just
- 59:20normally i know since i've met her but
- 59:22she had just standing over her legs
- 59:25she looked was she watching your baby
- 59:27there yeah and then in the uh whatever
- 59:29this other place is or there was another
- 59:31apartment that she had been in probably
- 59:33right about the time that i met her
- 59:35it's
- 59:36alaba club apartments does you already
- 59:38know all that mm-hmm
- 59:42so she'd only lived there for a few
- 59:44months i think haley probably was only
- 59:45there maybe once or twice
- 59:49did she live in the apartment did you
- 59:51drop her off at the steps was that one
- 59:52of the ones she lived down was that
- 59:54that was one of the places where we had
- 59:56met up a couple different times i
- 59:58actually have a couple friends that live
- 59:59in that complex so does she okay a good
- 1:00:01friend of mine from high school still
- 1:00:03lives there he has a one bedroom
- 1:00:04apartment you know right around the
- 1:00:05world you know who her friends were and
- 1:00:07their where they lived her names
- 1:00:12she used to talk about people all the
- 1:00:14time but would never use specific names
- 1:00:16or
- 1:00:17really go into any detail about anything
- 1:00:19and again it never seemed weird some
- 1:00:21people are just very particular about
- 1:00:23giving out details or specific details
- 1:00:26about other people so i understood all
- 1:00:28of that but all looking back at stuff
- 1:00:30now the privacy the way she was a little
- 1:00:33bit changing phones and
- 1:00:36it just it didn't seem right whatsoever
- 1:00:39right
- 1:00:40so
- 1:00:40looking back at any place that i know
- 1:00:42that she had ever gone to or
- 1:00:45that again would seem familiar for me
- 1:00:47that
- 1:00:48maybe i've gone to to meet her to drop
- 1:00:50off kaylee or to pick up kaylee for
- 1:00:52whatever reason we'd find neutral places
- 1:00:54sometimes or i'd go and pick her up at a
- 1:00:56grocery store if that's where they were
- 1:00:58to try to make it a little bit easier
- 1:01:01if if we found a nanny today and we
- 1:01:03found your baby what's what's your
- 1:01:05biggest
- 1:01:06what's the next biggest hurdle for you
- 1:01:08in your life as far as
- 1:01:11who's it
- 1:01:13maybe explaining something to somebody
- 1:01:14or who
- 1:01:16what's the next biggest concern i know
- 1:01:17your major concern now is finding your
- 1:01:19baby honestly
- 1:01:21that's all i care about at this point
- 1:01:23and i'll i'll take that necessary step
- 1:01:25with whatever with you know who would
- 1:01:27that be i mean
- 1:01:29who who's going to be the next
- 1:01:31hurdle in your life as far as trying to
- 1:01:33explain it no i'm not a neglectful
- 1:01:35mother i'm not you know is it gonna be
- 1:01:38your mom no it's gonna be saying that
- 1:01:41and proving that to myself every day
- 1:01:43my mom flat out told me yesterday she
- 1:01:45will never be able to forgive me and i
- 1:01:46even told her i'm never gonna be able to
- 1:01:47forgive myself every day i've been
- 1:01:49beating myself up about this every
- 1:01:51single day right not knowing where to go
- 1:01:54what to do
- 1:01:55running in circles literally because
- 1:01:56that's all i can do with this thing
- 1:01:58right even if i would have had my car in
- 1:02:00perfect condition
- 1:02:01you know under perfect conditions
- 1:02:04it wouldn't have mattered where would i
- 1:02:06have gone just
- 1:02:07driven around
- 1:02:08for nothing that's what it feels like
- 1:02:11yeah i just you know i mean
- 1:02:14i would hope this would never happen to
- 1:02:15you again but i think
- 1:02:17if it's ever happened never let this
- 1:02:25i wouldn't hesitate to talk to my
- 1:02:27parents this time if something happened
- 1:02:29i mean i learned
- 1:02:30the biggest lesson from all of us i made
- 1:02:32the greatest mistake that i ever could
- 1:02:34have made
- 1:02:35as a parent and i even you know told
- 1:02:38yuri that this morning and he said he
- 1:02:39couldn't disagree right
- 1:02:42now stand up straight
- 1:02:48well i know you've been in here a long
- 1:02:49time

- 1:02:54runner up we're not we're not trying to
- 1:02:56be big scary guys we're just trying to
- 1:02:58know and
- 1:02:59we're just trying to make sure we get
- 1:03:00accurate information so we have
- 1:03:02something to work off of i understand
- 1:03:04that i just wish i honestly had more
- 1:03:07things to help with we've talked about
- 1:03:09going through my computer maybe trying
- 1:03:11to find
- 1:03:12past conversations through instant
- 1:03:14messenger or through emails or something
- 1:03:18okay
- 1:03:19i'll offer up
- 1:03:21my computer in a heartbeat
- 1:03:24just like with my phone logs and
- 1:03:25everything else anything
- 1:03:27that could possibly help that's why
- 1:03:29we've set up websites and i've been
- 1:03:31making phone calls and trying to get a
- 1:03:32hold of people
- 1:03:34i had such a limited number of people i
- 1:03:36was actually trusting at that point
- 1:03:37thinking maybe they could help maybe
- 1:03:39they'd have some insight i didn't want
- 1:03:41to involve a bunch of people that maybe
- 1:03:43didn't know the situation the biggest
- 1:03:44mistake was not calling you guys right
- 1:03:46off the bat i understand
- 1:03:48all of that it's the biggest slap in the
- 1:03:50face and i did that to myself but the
- 1:03:51worst way i've done this to my daughter
- 1:03:54by
- 1:03:54allowing her to still be with someone
- 1:03:56else
- 1:03:58yeah that's true um you know you're
- 1:04:01right about that
- 1:04:02by failing to notify somebody
- 1:04:04right i'm glad you acknowledged that but
- 1:04:06by failing to notify somebody
- 1:04:09you put your daughter at greater risk
- 1:04:12you put your daughter in
- 1:04:14terrible danger by just letting this
- 1:04:15drag out for five weeks
- 1:04:17and not telling anybody
- 1:04:19that's uh
- 1:04:20you're right i'm not gonna argue with
