1
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:35,060
This was what we would call
basically a vicious murder.
2
00:00:39,100 --> 00:00:40,230
It looked like she was
3
00:00:40,340 --> 00:00:43,270
doing her best to get away
from whoever did this to her
4
00:00:43,370 --> 00:00:44,670
but didn't make it.
5
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,380
Ty was loving and caring, and
she just wanted to help people.
6
00:00:54,980 --> 00:00:56,480
There was a lot of fear
that somebody
7
00:00:56,590 --> 00:00:59,850
may be targeting
lgbtq people.
8
00:02:38,650 --> 00:02:41,160
Tyler police
promptly dispatch
9
00:02:41,260 --> 00:02:44,220
officer Joshua smedley
to the scene,
10
00:02:44,330 --> 00:02:48,630
a vacant house in the northern
section of the city.
11
00:02:48,730 --> 00:02:50,430
Due to it being
a major accident
12
00:02:50,530 --> 00:02:51,670
and gunshots being fired,
13
00:02:51,770 --> 00:02:54,800
I tried to get there
as soon as possible,
14
00:02:54,900 --> 00:02:58,040
and I tried to be
as tactical as I could.
15
00:03:01,610 --> 00:03:03,440
I activated my body camera.
16
00:03:06,020 --> 00:03:09,650
Approached the vehicle
and noticed that it was
17
00:03:09,750 --> 00:03:13,290
in the dirt
off the curb
18
00:03:13,390 --> 00:03:15,220
right next to
a telephone pole.
19
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,360
When I looked inside
the vehicle,
20
00:03:18,460 --> 00:03:20,790
the driver was motionless.
21
00:03:43,450 --> 00:03:46,390
Usually, when people
get into a major accident
22
00:03:46,490 --> 00:03:49,560
and they have a collision
with an object,
23
00:03:49,660 --> 00:03:52,590
they're gonna have more blood
coming from their nose,
24
00:03:52,700 --> 00:03:54,630
head, mouth area.
25
00:03:58,170 --> 00:04:01,800
But I noticed the blood was
coming from the shoulder,
26
00:04:01,900 --> 00:04:03,500
the wrists,
27
00:04:03,610 --> 00:04:08,310
and was pretty heavy on
the side of the victim,
28
00:04:10,610 --> 00:04:12,350
which seemed pretty strange.
29
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,640
I noticed that these wounds
on the victim in
30
00:04:36,740 --> 00:04:39,410
the shoulder and the wrist
area appeared to be
31
00:04:39,510 --> 00:04:42,410
impact wounds from gunshots.
32
00:04:45,410 --> 00:04:47,510
That raised concerns
that this is
33
00:04:47,620 --> 00:04:49,180
not just gonna be
an accident.
34
00:04:51,250 --> 00:04:54,450
Emts are unable
to revive the woman
35
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,220
and pronounce her dead.
36
00:04:56,330 --> 00:05:00,390
Officers also discover
the victim's cellphone still
37
00:05:00,500 --> 00:05:05,030
connected to the car stereo --
they collect it as evidence.
38
00:05:36,530 --> 00:05:37,600
There's no telling where
39
00:05:37,700 --> 00:05:39,800
this could've first occurred.
40
00:05:39,940 --> 00:05:44,600
Could be the suspect's riding
in the vehicle with the victim
41
00:05:44,710 --> 00:05:46,940
while shooting them
or are they chasing
42
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,610
after them in
their own vehicle?
43
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,730
There was only one thing
we knew for sure,
44
00:06:07,830 --> 00:06:09,530
and that's that
we had a homicide.
45
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,590
Investigators
also discover that
46
00:06:34,690 --> 00:06:36,990
their victim is
a transgender woman.
47
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,560
I spoke to family members.
48
00:06:44,670 --> 00:06:46,170
I spoke to friends.
49
00:06:46,270 --> 00:06:47,670
I spoke to
a lot of classmates
50
00:06:47,770 --> 00:06:50,940
and then also with some of
Ty's professors,
51
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:52,470
and they all told me about
the kind of
52
00:06:52,570 --> 00:06:55,880
person Ty was, that Ty
was loving and caring,
53
00:06:55,980 --> 00:06:57,510
and she just wanted
to help people.
54
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,720
She had gone back to school
specifically to be in
55
00:07:01,850 --> 00:07:04,150
the medical field to where
she could serve others.
56
00:07:12,590 --> 00:07:13,830
Back at the scene,
57
00:07:13,930 --> 00:07:16,100
officers tape off the area
58
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,800
and begin their homicide
investigation.
59
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:33,010
We found a passenger side
mirror on the ground.
60
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:38,720
It appeared that the vehicle
had run into this brick mailbox.
61
00:07:38,790 --> 00:07:41,390
And we discovered evidence,
62
00:07:41,490 --> 00:07:44,160
shell casings 100 yards
to the west.
63
00:08:21,660 --> 00:08:23,660
With the huge crime scene,
64
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,630
we knew we had quite a bit of
work ahead of US at that point.
65
00:08:40,780 --> 00:08:43,880
I then began to knock on
addresses nearby
66
00:08:43,990 --> 00:08:46,520
where the incident had
occurred in hopes of getting
67
00:08:46,620 --> 00:08:48,590
more leads to
the investigation.
68
00:08:50,490 --> 00:08:53,190
Not a lot of people
answered the door
69
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,000
due to it being past 3 A.M.
70
00:09:25,430 --> 00:09:26,960
Bianca: I was hoping
that she had witnessed
71
00:09:27,060 --> 00:09:28,730
more of the accident,
72
00:09:28,830 --> 00:09:32,000
but all she saw
was the vehicle.
73
00:09:32,100 --> 00:09:33,270
She didn't see anyone.
74
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,270
She didn't see anyone
inside the vehicle.
75
00:09:37,770 --> 00:09:40,810
So she ended up not having
any more leads to
76
00:09:40,910 --> 00:09:41,980
the investigation.
77
00:10:27,860 --> 00:10:30,690
Police in Tyler,
Texas, have just found
78
00:10:30,790 --> 00:10:33,990
the body of
24-year-old Ty Underwood...
79
00:10:35,460 --> 00:10:37,500
...shot to death in her car.
80
00:10:43,310 --> 00:10:47,210
She had been shot numerous
times, apparently four times
81
00:10:47,310 --> 00:10:50,110
from what looked like
outside of the vehicle.
82
00:10:51,610 --> 00:10:53,710
The suspect may have been
standing at the door
83
00:10:53,820 --> 00:10:56,350
or sitting in the car --
it looked like
84
00:10:56,450 --> 00:10:59,450
she was doing her best to get
away from whoever did this
85
00:10:59,550 --> 00:11:03,020
to her but didn't make it,
and she died in her car.
86
00:11:04,530 --> 00:11:08,030
We knew this was
what we would call basically
87
00:11:08,130 --> 00:11:09,060
a vicious murder.
88
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,080
Around this time,
there was a lot of fear in
89
00:11:23,180 --> 00:11:27,080
the lgbtq community about
people being who they were.
90
00:11:27,180 --> 00:11:30,150
When you start talking to
family members or classmates,
91
00:11:30,250 --> 00:11:33,320
it stops becoming more of
an abstract concept
92
00:11:33,420 --> 00:11:35,460
and this is a real person
who had
93
00:11:35,560 --> 00:11:37,620
real family and real friends
who are in real pain.
94
00:11:41,860 --> 00:11:43,260
Back on the streets,
95
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,370
the investigation continues.
96
00:11:46,970 --> 00:11:49,900
Investigators look
into Ty's background
97
00:11:50,010 --> 00:11:52,340
and come up with
her current address.
98
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,880
Detectives Nathan Elliott
and Andy erbaugh head
99
00:11:55,980 --> 00:11:58,140
to the apartment
to speak with Ty's
100
00:11:58,250 --> 00:11:59,880
roommate, breonna.
101
00:12:19,530 --> 00:12:23,200
When we go contact anybody
in a murder investigation,
102
00:12:23,310 --> 00:12:24,740
we don't know
how they're involved,
103
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:25,810
because they could be
the suspect.
104
00:12:25,910 --> 00:12:27,070
They could know
what happened.
105
00:12:27,180 --> 00:12:30,480
They could have information
that is valuable as evidence,
106
00:12:30,580 --> 00:12:31,810
so we don't
107
00:12:31,910 --> 00:12:33,910
want to give up too much
of our hand in this.
108
00:13:52,990 --> 00:13:55,460
She was touched emotionally
to the point of
109
00:13:55,560 --> 00:13:58,060
crying hysterically,
110
00:13:58,170 --> 00:13:59,500
almost to the point
of gagging.
111
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,530
So at that point in time,
112
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:05,040
we almost check her off as
somebody who's not involved.
113
00:14:09,980 --> 00:14:12,310
Ty and her friend
were living together,
114
00:14:12,410 --> 00:14:13,850
are best friends,
115
00:14:13,950 --> 00:14:18,280
and she knows pretty much
everything that Ty does.
116
00:14:18,390 --> 00:14:22,860
We were hoping that she could
provide some details about why
117
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,330
Ty was out at that time
of night,
118
00:14:25,430 --> 00:14:27,130
especially when Ty was
supposed to be at school
119
00:14:27,260 --> 00:14:28,600
that morning.
120
00:14:46,620 --> 00:14:48,510
Detectives bring breonna
121
00:14:48,620 --> 00:14:50,650
to the station to talk further.
122
00:15:57,020 --> 00:16:01,150
To know that they're having
to live in this kind of fear,
123
00:16:01,260 --> 00:16:03,560
to know that they're even
scared to walk on the street,
124
00:16:03,660 --> 00:16:06,990
too scared that they might be
killed just for who they are,
125
00:16:07,100 --> 00:16:09,060
it just kind of lights
a fire under you,
126
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,560
because obviously
you definitely
127
00:16:11,670 --> 00:16:14,430
don't want that to keep
happening and want to catch
128
00:16:14,540 --> 00:16:16,470
who did this, you know,
even more.
129
00:16:52,210 --> 00:16:55,710
While detectives work
to access Ty's phone,
130
00:16:55,810 --> 00:16:58,440
they continue to speak
with Ty's friends
131
00:16:58,550 --> 00:17:01,880
to learn more about
the people in her inner circle.
132
00:17:39,750 --> 00:17:42,160
We didn't know what Ty
needed the money for -- was it
133
00:17:42,260 --> 00:17:43,620
she was late on bills?
134
00:17:43,730 --> 00:17:45,320
Was she owed somebody
some money,
135
00:17:45,430 --> 00:17:46,760
where she's going to
meet somebody,
136
00:17:46,860 --> 00:17:47,830
to pay 'em the money?
137
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,500
We didn't know if Ty was gonna
138
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,170
go buy something from
an individual and got robbed.
139
00:18:12,090 --> 00:18:13,820
Once we learned
that Ty was dating
140
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,820
somebody who went to Texas
college and played football,
141
00:18:16,930 --> 00:18:19,790
and from the roommate that
the name was Carlton,
142
00:18:19,890 --> 00:18:22,500
so now we had
a lead to follow.
143
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,130
So our next step is
to go to Texas college,
144
00:18:26,230 --> 00:18:27,830
find out who Carlton is.
145
00:18:33,140 --> 00:18:36,180
Detectives travel
to Texas college,
146
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,050
where a 21-year-old football
player named
147
00:18:39,150 --> 00:18:42,780
Carlton champion, Jr., is
brought in to talk.
148
00:19:17,250 --> 00:19:19,690
At this point,
it was suspicious that Carlton
149
00:19:19,790 --> 00:19:21,050
would delete the app,
150
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:22,760
but this doesn't make him
a murderer.
151
00:19:43,710 --> 00:19:45,140
Champion:...
152
00:19:57,130 --> 00:19:59,890
Carlton was adamant,
stumbling over his words,
153
00:19:59,990 --> 00:20:02,400
that he hadn't
had sex with Ty --
154
00:20:02,500 --> 00:20:03,900
being a football player,
155
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,400
being that now a trans woman
has been
156
00:20:07,500 --> 00:20:09,340
killed a few blocks
from the college.
157
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,200
Word was getting out,
so I don't know if he didn't
158
00:20:11,340 --> 00:20:13,140
want to be associated with Ty
159
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,070
where everybody else
would know it.
160
00:20:15,180 --> 00:20:18,740
Detectives press
Carlton about his movements
161
00:20:18,850 --> 00:20:22,820
that night after he returned
from Dallas.
162
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,470
When we told Carlton that Ty
had been killed,
163
00:21:16,570 --> 00:21:18,770
Carlton was quick to say
that he had nothing to
164
00:21:18,870 --> 00:21:22,110
do with it, said that other
people could vouch for him.
165
00:21:22,210 --> 00:21:25,580
Just kept denying that he was
involved in any way.
166
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,210
He really didn't
have any emotions,
167
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,820
no emotion about somebody
being killed at all.
168
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:31,350
Kind of raised
some red flags.
169
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,830
The murder of
Ty Underwood
170
00:21:45,930 --> 00:21:48,300
has left the city
of Tyler, Texas,
171
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,040
struggling for answers.
172
00:21:54,580 --> 00:21:56,610
Ty's death was
a really scary
173
00:21:56,710 --> 00:21:58,610
moment for people
in this community,
174
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,650
and there was a lot of community
outrage about what had happened.
175
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:16,330
Now detectives set
their sights on one suspect,
176
00:22:16,430 --> 00:22:20,430
Texas college football player,
Carlton champion, Jr.
177
00:22:21,970 --> 00:22:25,670
As detectives try to verify
Carlton's statements,
178
00:22:25,770 --> 00:22:29,540
they focus on another hopeful
source of information --
179
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,710
Ty's locked cellphone.
180
00:22:33,050 --> 00:22:34,850
We knew that we needed to get
in the cellphone,
181
00:22:34,950 --> 00:22:36,750
but we didn't have
the pass code.
182
00:22:36,850 --> 00:22:40,650
We know that if you try
the wrong pass code on an iPhone
183
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,020
too many times,
it's gonna lock the phone up.
184
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:45,990
And luckily,
we typed in Ty's birthday,
185
00:22:46,090 --> 00:22:47,790
and it opened the phone.
186
00:22:47,900 --> 00:22:49,460
When we looked
in Ty's cellphone,
187
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,630
we saw that Ty had been
texting another person.
188
00:22:52,770 --> 00:22:55,530
We tracked down
that phone number and saw
189
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,800
that Ty have been texting
with another male at Tyler.
190
00:23:03,910 --> 00:23:07,550
Detectives give
the man, Dalton Howard, a call.
191
00:23:11,150 --> 00:23:12,450
192
00:23:26,500 --> 00:23:29,840
He seemed very surprised that
a detective would be
193
00:23:29,940 --> 00:23:32,270
calling him to begin with,
and he said that
194
00:23:32,370 --> 00:23:34,340
he didn't know anybody
by the name of Tyrone.
195
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,040
Not sure if Dalton
is telling the truth,
196
00:23:39,150 --> 00:23:42,720
detectives swan and Matthews
visit him at his home
197
00:23:42,820 --> 00:23:44,480
and press him about
the murder.
198
00:24:45,110 --> 00:24:46,250
...
199
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:08,470
He seemed pretty convincing
that he had never met her,
200
00:25:08,570 --> 00:25:12,870
but as an investigator, I have
seen people who lie very well.
201
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,920
When he told me that he was
willing to let US look
202
00:25:27,020 --> 00:25:28,150
at his phone or whatever,
203
00:25:28,260 --> 00:25:32,120
he certainly seemed willing
to help in some way.
204
00:25:32,230 --> 00:25:34,730
Then he tells US
that he deleted it,
205
00:25:34,830 --> 00:25:38,560
and suddenly we're thinking
okay, what does he have to hide?
206
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,140
Detectives aren't convinced
207
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,140
Dalton is telling the truth,
208
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,640
so they return with him
to the station for
209
00:25:47,740 --> 00:25:49,380
further questioning.
210
00:27:16,300 --> 00:27:19,470
Any time somebody makes
absolute statements like that,
211
00:27:19,570 --> 00:27:23,770
I never do things that might
cause US to want to go down
212
00:27:23,870 --> 00:27:25,100
that path,
213
00:27:25,210 --> 00:27:27,070
but for somebody to tell US
that they never leave the house
214
00:27:27,210 --> 00:27:28,210
at night,
215
00:27:28,310 --> 00:27:32,610
especially when they are
texting somebody
216
00:27:32,710 --> 00:27:35,780
that closely before a crime
217
00:27:37,180 --> 00:27:39,050
certainly brings suspicion
upon him.
218
00:28:02,980 --> 00:28:05,980
Detectives hunting
Ty Underwood's killer
219
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:07,480
in Tyler, Texas,
220
00:28:07,580 --> 00:28:13,120
have their eye on two suspects
that Ty met on social media.
221
00:28:13,220 --> 00:28:17,260
Now, the one they've been
questioning, Dalton Howard,
222
00:28:17,360 --> 00:28:20,060
has requested to
take a polygraph test.
223
00:28:22,430 --> 00:28:26,100
As the interview
progressed, he became much more
224
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,870
uncomfortable
as I began to question him
225
00:28:28,970 --> 00:28:33,270
more and more about the timing
and also whether or not
226
00:28:33,370 --> 00:28:35,070
he ever met
227
00:28:35,180 --> 00:28:38,140
Ty, so we gave him
a polygraph,
228
00:28:38,250 --> 00:28:40,380
and at the conclusion of
that polygraph,
229
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:44,050
we considered the fact
that he had not
230
00:28:44,150 --> 00:28:49,320
contacted or texted Ty
after the,
231
00:28:49,420 --> 00:28:53,090
last text, which was about
two hours before the death,
232
00:28:53,190 --> 00:28:55,790
and that,
233
00:28:55,900 --> 00:29:00,600
there was no plans to meet
Ty in those texts.
234
00:29:00,700 --> 00:29:04,770
I determined that he was
no longer a suspect.
235
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,740
Detectives next
turn their attention
236
00:29:10,850 --> 00:29:12,380
back to the other man
237
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:16,980
Ty had been communicating
with, Carlton champion Jr.
238
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:19,920
When I started looking at
Ty's cellphone, I turned
239
00:29:20,020 --> 00:29:21,720
the airplane mode off,
240
00:29:21,820 --> 00:29:26,130
which a lot of times we turn it
on to preserve evidence.
241
00:29:26,230 --> 00:29:28,530
Then all of these messages
started coming through.
242
00:29:28,630 --> 00:29:31,200
Then going through all
the kik messages, I saw
243
00:29:31,300 --> 00:29:34,100
that Ty and Carlton were
244
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,700
messaging back and forth
at two o'clock in the morning,
245
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:40,140
just minutes
before Ty was shot.
246
00:29:42,610 --> 00:29:45,910
They're arguing back and forth,
and they end up
247
00:29:46,010 --> 00:29:47,610
agreeing to meet.
248
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,320
Ty says she's coming
to the college.
249
00:29:50,420 --> 00:29:53,120
Carlton says,
"no meet me on 25th."
250
00:29:54,460 --> 00:29:56,720
And she says,
"I'm on my way."
251
00:30:01,700 --> 00:30:04,800
Detectives visit
Carlton at his dorm room
252
00:30:04,900 --> 00:30:06,600
as they ready
a search warrant.
253
00:30:21,620 --> 00:30:22,880
Now that we know he's lied,
254
00:30:24,220 --> 00:30:26,390
that's an advantage
to US as detectives,
255
00:30:26,490 --> 00:30:28,950
because now we have something
that we can
256
00:30:29,060 --> 00:30:30,460
interrogate him on.
257
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:48,770
He pretty much was...
258
00:31:50,370 --> 00:31:51,140
Throwing it in our face.
259
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:52,570
Like,
"how dare you ask me that?
260
00:31:52,670 --> 00:31:54,110
How dare you ask me
if I killed her?"
261
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,480
Investigators
carry out their search.
262
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,460
He would not
admit to anything.
263
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,700
He was just adamant that
he did not send those messages,
264
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:55,330
and he did not know who did.
265
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,140
So we did what we did
and served a search warrant
266
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,540
and seized some of
his belongings.
267
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,940
With the amount of
blood spatter
268
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,040
that was sprayed
through the car,
269
00:33:06,810 --> 00:33:08,210
if he had been
in the car with her
270
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,150
or even standing outside the car
when she was shot,
271
00:33:10,250 --> 00:33:11,420
there may be
biological evidence
272
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:12,820
or blood evidence
on that shirt
273
00:33:14,190 --> 00:33:17,360
or on his pants
or especially on his shoes.
274
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:25,230
But then investigators
find something revealing
275
00:33:25,330 --> 00:33:29,100
as they review the security
footage from Texas college.
276
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:30,440
During the interviews
with Carlton,
277
00:33:30,540 --> 00:33:31,840
he continued to say
that he never
278
00:33:31,940 --> 00:33:34,770
left his dorm room past 9:30
or 10 the night before.
279
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,410
We were able
to attain video from
280
00:33:36,510 --> 00:33:40,050
the surveillance cameras
of the dorm hall,
281
00:33:40,150 --> 00:33:42,710
which showed he left
the dorm about
282
00:33:42,820 --> 00:33:44,520
a little after two o'clock
that next morning
283
00:33:45,850 --> 00:33:47,950
and returned
about 20 minutes later,
284
00:33:48,060 --> 00:33:50,020
which would have gave him
enough time
285
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,090
to kill Ty and run back
to his dorm.
286
00:33:56,460 --> 00:33:58,460
Given all that we had
287
00:33:58,570 --> 00:34:02,030
learned up until this point,
it was time to bring Carlton in.
288
00:34:16,780 --> 00:34:19,920
Tyler, Texas, police
have prime suspect,
289
00:34:20,020 --> 00:34:22,720
Carlton champion, Jr.,
at the station,
290
00:34:22,820 --> 00:34:25,990
where they confront him
about his relationship with Ty.
291
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:38,760
When I was
interviewing Carlton,
292
00:35:38,870 --> 00:35:41,130
he knew he was at the center
of our investigation
293
00:35:41,240 --> 00:35:44,200
at this point,
and for his attitude --
294
00:35:44,300 --> 00:35:46,300
to be smirking,
to want me to go
295
00:35:46,410 --> 00:35:50,240
buy him some food,
to be nonchalant, is not
296
00:35:50,340 --> 00:35:53,950
ordinarily how a suspect
or a person being interrogated
297
00:35:54,050 --> 00:35:55,410
for a homicide acts.
298
00:36:17,700 --> 00:36:20,640
I could tell that Ty
wanted more in this relation,
299
00:36:20,740 --> 00:36:23,240
something Carlton did,
300
00:36:23,340 --> 00:36:25,840
Ty was more emotionally
invested in the relationship.
301
00:36:25,980 --> 00:36:28,950
Ty tells Carlton
that she's not coming.
302
00:36:29,050 --> 00:36:30,880
They're pretty much
through with,
303
00:36:30,980 --> 00:36:32,720
and then Ty messages
304
00:36:32,820 --> 00:36:35,150
a few hours later and says,
"no, I'm coming to pick you up."
305
00:36:53,310 --> 00:36:55,570
We explained
everything we had --
306
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,340
the messages,
the video, everything.
307
00:36:58,450 --> 00:37:00,510
It didn't seem
to matter to Carlton.
308
00:37:42,990 --> 00:37:45,290
We gave Carlton every
opportunity to tell US,
309
00:37:45,390 --> 00:37:47,160
you know, his defense,
310
00:37:47,260 --> 00:37:49,490
what actually happened
in his words,
311
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,030
and during
all the interviews,
312
00:37:52,130 --> 00:37:53,730
he wouldn't tell US
what happened.
313
00:37:53,830 --> 00:37:56,400
He'd just continued to say he
wasn't there, he didn't do it.
314
00:38:38,010 --> 00:38:40,850
Unfortunately,
without evidence to connect
315
00:38:40,950 --> 00:38:42,950
Carlton to the crime scene,
316
00:38:43,050 --> 00:38:46,050
detectives don't have enough
for an arrest
317
00:38:46,150 --> 00:38:49,950
until they receive word
back from the lab.
318
00:40:09,140 --> 00:40:10,140
There are some investigations
319
00:40:10,240 --> 00:40:12,470
when you have a lot of
evidence against somebody,
320
00:40:12,570 --> 00:40:15,940
sometimes people will
eventually say, "okay,
321
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:17,110
I'm guilty."
322
00:40:17,210 --> 00:40:18,210
With Carlton champion,
323
00:40:18,310 --> 00:40:21,510
he just dug his heels
in the dirt and continued
324
00:40:21,620 --> 00:40:24,120
to say that he had
no involvement in
325
00:40:24,220 --> 00:40:26,790
the homicide of Ty
when clearly there was
326
00:40:26,890 --> 00:40:29,320
evidence against him.
327
00:40:30,420 --> 00:40:32,160
I think Carlton
was threatened.
328
00:40:32,260 --> 00:40:34,430
I think he didn't want
his football players
329
00:40:34,530 --> 00:40:37,460
or his friends to know that he
was dating a transgender woman.
330
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:38,660
He didn't want that.
331
00:40:40,430 --> 00:40:42,300
And so that's why
he killed her.
332
00:40:53,210 --> 00:40:57,080
Based on the evidence,
Carlton champion, Jr., is
333
00:40:57,180 --> 00:41:00,850
charged with the first degree
murder of Ty Underwood.
334
00:41:03,020 --> 00:41:07,760
Through the trial, Carlton
was still flippant and cold,
335
00:41:07,860 --> 00:41:10,730
and denying and denying it.
336
00:41:10,830 --> 00:41:14,370
Going so far as to
lash out in the courtroom,
337
00:41:14,470 --> 00:41:15,970
caught on news cameras.
338
00:41:20,940 --> 00:41:22,610
I don't think that
sat well with the jury,
339
00:41:22,710 --> 00:41:27,310
and in the end, they convicted
him of murder and sentenced him
340
00:41:27,410 --> 00:41:28,850
to life in prison.
341
00:41:35,620 --> 00:41:38,560
There was a vigil for Ty after
the murder, when everybody
342
00:41:38,660 --> 00:41:41,360
began to learn more
about Ty as a person.
343
00:41:41,430 --> 00:41:44,930
It brought together a large
cross section of the community.
344
00:41:45,030 --> 00:41:47,570
We had probably about
50 people
345
00:41:47,670 --> 00:41:49,330
together from all over
the community,
346
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:53,540
family members, friends, coming
together to celebrate who Ty was
347
00:41:53,670 --> 00:41:56,770
as a person and the fact that Ty
was going to get justice.
348
00:41:57,840 --> 00:41:59,240
When Ty's death occurred,
349
00:41:59,350 --> 00:42:01,950
that also sparked a lot of
other conversations
350
00:42:02,050 --> 00:42:04,350
that weren't going to be had
in this community,
351
00:42:04,450 --> 00:42:08,320
and lgbtq advocates
in the community
352
00:42:08,420 --> 00:42:11,390
to take a harder stance,
to speak up.
353
00:42:11,490 --> 00:42:13,190
They needed to demand
humanization
354
00:42:13,290 --> 00:42:15,190
in their own community,
355
00:42:15,300 --> 00:42:18,760
and I don't think that
we would have the strong dynamic
356
00:42:18,870 --> 00:42:20,870
base of lgbtq advocates
357
00:42:20,970 --> 00:42:23,900
in this area had they not
taken that stance when
358
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:25,070
Ty was murdered.
