It was a beautiful morning
when I received the phone call.

I did not understand
what was going on.

A shocking murder
no one saw coming.

Execution-style shootings
are very unusual

in orange county.

In fountain valley,
it was no exaggeration to say

this was a turning point.

It became a test to
the safety of the community.

A similar crime unearths
even more questions.

What possibly could be
the connection?

It made no sense at all.

Fountain valley was unable

to identify anything.

It was a dead end.

That person is
out there somewhere.

As two vicious acts of violence

threaten this picture-perfect
community,

any wrong turns
could be deadly.

They got themselves caught up

with a guy that was very evil.

When I first
got to orange county,

I thought that there was
a certain

"Stepford" quality to it.

Fountain valley is one of those
California communities

that has a sort of master plan,
cookie-cutter feel.

These communities are
planned meticulously,

and they're laid out on a grid.

A local joke the cops say
is that,

if you go home drunk,
make sure that,

when you walk in the house,
you're walking in the right one.

Orange county's
best-kept secret.

A community designed
and built around

an idealistic vision
of o.C. Perfection.

A place where families rising
through the upper middle class

can claim their own perfect
piece of the California dream.

Jane and al carver.
Found their place here,

living out a sun-kissed
fairy tale

with a big house, happy kids,
great friends.

All part of the master plan.

This is my dad and my mom
on their wedding day.

My parents were
very much in love,

and... and-and also
very much opposite.

My dad, he was director
of operations

at a health care company,

and my mom became a flight
attendant out of Los Angeles.

My dad was more of
a conservative-minded...

"Take the caution" approach.

And my mom was
a little bit more

adventurous, and I think that
that balance

in their personalities
attracted each other.

Jane carver. Was my best friend.

We met in stew school

in 1969.

We all started flying together

the same year,
with united airlines.

Janie just was fun and spunky

and easy to work with.

The group of US got nicknamed
"the ya-yas"

'cause we flew together so much.

We just had a good time.

People were just drawn
to Janie because she had this

twinkle in her eye
that drew people in.

Most all of our friends
lived in fountain valley,

so we drove to work together,

and we made plans
with our families.

She was just an incredible mom.

Really fun-loving
and laughing all the time

and joking and, like,
just making the best of life.

You could watch from the outside

and just be like,
"wow, she's got it."

We traveled a lot.

I can recall
going to Hong Kong.

We went to Europe.

She was very spontaneous

in her approach to travel.

If we were studying
the presidents or the capitals

or something like that,
and she was working

and going on a trip
to Washington, D.C.,

she was like, "hey, we're gonna
skip school today,

and I'm gonna go show you
the real thing, so let's go."

Running was her escape.

She always wanted
to be on the go.

She didn't sit much.

Jane just enjoyed life.

The carver.S couldn't know

that their master plan
for the good life

was about to go horribly wrong.

June 10, 1995,
the carver.S wake up.

Jane goes for a run,

and she runs right into
a nightmare.

Jane is about a block from home,

and then suddenly
she's confronted.

A man appears out of nowhere

and shoots her in the face.

Kim
there was one shot,
she falls down,

and this man looks briefly,

turns around and gets back
in his car and drives off.

And there are witnesses
across the street

that can hardly believe
what happened.

Witnesses describe the gunman

as being very calm

and sort of casual.

Al carver. Hears
the sirens coming...

...and he steps outside his home

trying to figure out
what's going on.

Jane carver. Was so close
to being

back at the house from her run

that the crime scene is within
yards of their front door.

I received a phone call
from al carver.,

who was choking up on the phone.

It was hard to understand
what he was saying,

that Jane had been shot.

I ran around the corner.

Al was just-just a mess.

You could read the pain
on his face.

He just looked at me
and he said,

"she's gone.
She's really gone."

I heard it on the police scanner

and came to the scene.

It was a lot of commotion,

and I was trying
to take it all in.

People were still talking about
a gunman on the loose.

It was hard to fathom the fact
that someone would

walk up and basically
execute this woman

in broad daylight.

A well-traveled street.

And all of a sudden,
that sense of safety

in the community
is absolutely shattered.

There wasn't much to go on
at the time, evidence-wise.

We had to rely on what
the witness statements were.

There are six witnesses
at the scene

who describe the gunman,

and their descriptions are
fairly consistent.

The suspect was wearing
a brown or tweed sportscoat

with a high-neck shirt
and dark pants.

He's between 30 and 40,
receding hairline.

We had a forensic artist
that we typically used,

and she came in
and did the composites

with two witnesses.

The car was a 1978 to 1984
two-door hatchback.

It was white.
And at that time,

we went and searched,
but we didn't find

the suspect or the car.

We collected one bullet casing

at the scene.

There was very little evidence.

The crime just doesn't add up.

She wasn't robbed.

There was nothing here
that explained why

this woman had been shot.

In an instant,
this sunny Saturday morning

became the worst day
in the carver.S' lives,

and would change this
o.C. Enclave forever.

Justin had been asleep
through this whole thing.

He was 14 at the time.

And that just broke my heart.

I-I couldn't imagine
how al could possibly

tell Justin that
about his mother.

It was like a dream to me.
-It was really...

Your life is changed like that.

It was a tough day.
A really tough day.

I was 20 years old,

and I was a sophomore
at Oregon state university.

I got that phone call,

and I felt like I was racing
to the airport,

but I felt like I couldn't
drive fast enough.

Everything was in slow motion.

Why would that happen?

Why would anybody
shoot Janie, of all people?

This didn't make any sense
at all.

In a tight-knit haven
like fountain valley,

the best resource
could be the friends

she held in closest confidence.

Perhaps there was
some secret conflict brewing

beneath the perfect
orange county surface

presented by the carver.S.

You can't assume that anybody
is excluded initially.

And that was my responsibility,

to interview family and friends
because this was a large effort

to try to find information.

I had to ask al
in that initial interview

did he have anything to do
with this murder?

Did he know anybody who had
anything to do with it?

He was devastated,
it was very clear,

but we just didn't know.

Al was very open
right from the beginning.

There wasn't any question
that he didn't answer.

His friends also corroborated
the fact that

al was in his home
when this occurred.

We were all in
a state of shock,

not knowing what to do.

The police came over,
and each one of US

was interviewed individually.

They just wanted to
get a sense on

what we did that morning
and who Jane was.

We tried to think
about something

she might have said to US.

Did she talk about anybody
on the plane bothering her?

You know, any incident where
somebody was angry with her.

But nothing.

You couldn't even wrap your head
around the whole scenario.

They have an idea what
the suspect looks like,

but they don't know
what the motive could be.

They were convinced it was
a contract hit.

Even when you get to
the bottom of this mystery,

there's another twist.

A man had called her,

and he was demanding to be paid.

There's another shooting
that happens.

This might have a connection.

Jane carver.'S o.C. Dream
was cut short

in a senseless execution,

leaving everyone
in her community

chasing the fragments of its
now-shattered perfection.

Homicides don't happen
in fountain valley.

Jane's murder was
the only one at that time

in 1995.

Could this idyllic place

have forever veered
from its master plan?

In the weeks after
Jane carver.'S murder,

it was no exaggeration to say
this was a turning point.

It became a test to
the reputation

and the safety of the community.

Everybody either knew
Jane carver. Or knew her name.

The one thing nobody knew is:
Why was she dead?

Fear spread as whispers
and speculation

were at the tip
of every tongue

and the top of every
news headline.

Could it be someone Jane knew?

Or if it was random,

what or who could be next?

From witness statements,

we were told that this person

had been seen parked

in the area prior
to the incident.

So therefore,
we considered that

it could possibly be
a stalking situation.

Was it some grudge
or secret relationship?

Every single theory
was being thrown around.

There was nothing ruled out.

You really have to feel for
al carver., because, I mean,

not only h-has he lost
his wife,

he's also not oblivious
to the fact

that people are looking at him
in a different way.

They say there's a thin line
between love and hate,

but there's an even thinner line
between marriage and murder.

At one point, I was having lunch
in this deli, and there were

two women talking
about the case,

and they were convinced
it was a contract hit done by

her husband.

Al carver. Was an open book.

Anything we needed to do
or asked of him,

he was more than willing
to cooperate.

He did take a polygraph
and he passed the polygraph.

It was straightforward
and very uncomfortable,

but it was something
that had to be done.

Even though it's not
admissible in court,

it did confirm my belief that

al was not involved.

We all knew that my dad
had nothing to do with it,

but it was a process
we were willing to do.

I mean, at that point,
we wanted answers,

and all you can do is provide
as much as you can.

And so the carver. Case
was becoming

a true murder mystery
in the eyes of the public.

As the pressure mounted,

would they ever find justice
for Janie?

The day of the funeral was

packed house,
standing room only.

We were there for support
for the family,

and, it was difficult,
for all of US.

You needed to kind of
just regroup

and think about
what the heck just happened.

And what-what do we do now?
What-what's life gonna be like?

There was a void.

But there were so many people
there to make sure

that we were gonna be okay.

We came back from the funeral

and we were trying to figure out
what to do.

How can we help fountain
valley police department

solve this?

They got a composite drawing,

they got a face,
and then they got the car,

but they don't have the guy.

So everyone, like, decided,
"okay, let's print

"thousands of these flyers

and we're gonna blanket
orange county."

Maybe we can get
some leads this way.

Because so many people
wanted to help,

I had to organize them
into groups.

There were more
than were employed

by the fountain valley
police department.

About 100 people
met at mile square park

to pick up flyers
bearing a composite sketch

of carver.'S alleged killer

and distribute them
to area businesses.

They're sure someone out there
knows who he is.

Friends of Jane
would stop at nothing

to shake out this killer
and restore a sense of safety

to their sunny streets.

We would meet every Saturday

and pick out certain areas.

We would go door-to-door.

We went to bars,

we went to hair salons.

E-Every place in the strip mall.

Laundromats, it didn't matter.

Anyone that would let US

put up a flyer,
we were happy to do it.

I mean, they got busy,

and it was an impressive thing
to see.

They started raising money,

and the airline that Jane carver.
Had worked for

kicked in $10,000
to help catch the killer.

They wanted to get
to the bottom of this.

The reward fund kept increasing

and it went up to $45,000.

We're talking 1995.
That's a lot of money.

It was an amazing effort,

and it was really cool to see
a community come together

for our family.

The support of our friends
and the community

is really what's giving me
the strength,

to, to keep going here.

If crimes could be solved
by concern,

the murder of Jane carver.
Would have been

an open-and-shut case
within a day.

You could have as much money
as you want,

but in this case,
police couldn't even buy a clue.

They had no leads at all.

Yes, we were disappointed
because we felt

that our hard work

was just not
getting US anywhere.

Time heals in one sense,
but until you catch the person,

it-- time is worse.

The thought crossed our minds:

Is this maybe a cold case?

This may never get solved.

Ten months crawled by,

and investigators were
no closer to any answers.

But a case without answers
can often turn cold.

The case does go cold
and it wanes.

We were very hopeful
that we might

get that one break to help US.

On April 10, 1996,

there's another shooting
that occurred in San clemente

which appeared very similar
to our case with Jane carver..

An individual was going
to his business

and as he arrived,
he was met by someone

who shot him one time
in the face and left the scene.

Another investigator saw a flyer

and thought it appeared
to have an m.O. Very similar

to our case with Jane carver..

The random murder of Jane carver.

Had shaken a perfectly planned
o.C. Community

and left friends, family
and investigators

seeking elusive answers.

But a similar attack
in south orange county

was about to rock
its foundation to the core.

Ten months
after Jane carver.'S murder,

something
interesting happens.

About 30 miles south,

investigators are looking
into another act of violence.

On April 10, 1996,

I responded to the city
of San clemente shortly after

a subject by the name
of James wengert

had been shot in the face

and surprisingly survived.

The suspect did not ask
for money.

In fact, said nothing
to wengert but instead

shot him in the face
without comment or warning.

And then turned and left.

Execution-style shooting is
very unusual in orange county.

My lieutenant made
an off-the-cuff remark,

the only one he could
recall had occurred

almost a year earlier--
a jogger, Jane carver.--

who had been killed
in fountain valley.

When we were able
to interview him,

James wengert immediately

focused our investigation on
someone that he had been having

contentious business
dealings with

by the name of Coleman Allen,

and felt that that person
was responsible.

James wengert was a businessman
and had no criminal record.

But at the time
of James wengert's shooting,

he had borrowed
a-a significant amount of money

from Cole Allen to try
and keep his business afloat.

Cole Allen had required wengert
to take out

a very large
life insurance policy

that listed Cole Allen
as the beneficiary.

And the amount
of the life insurance policy

was almost three times
the amount owed.

In any circumstance,
hearing someone is obtaining

life insurance policies
on people that owe them money,

this set off some significant
alarm bells for US.

This is the thing you see

on a television show
or read in a book,

but certainly not a crime
in orange county, California.

Was it possible that Cole Allen
was behind two brutal crimes

that tore at the tailored
fabric of orange county?

Could Janie carver.'S shooting
have been a murder for hire?

And if so, how had she become
tangled up

in this nefarious plot?

Two other law enforcement
agencies in southern California

had active investigations
targeting Cole Allen

for fraud and financial crimes

in a very sophisticated way.

Coleman Allen runs a company
called premium commercial

in huntington beach,
and this company

specializes in making loans,
often to small-business people.

He did sell them a form of hope.

This would be, like,
a bridge loan to get them

up on their feet,
but with the high interest rates

that he charged and the payment
demands that he made,

very quickly,

hope turned into a nightmare.

There is an air of Tony soprano
to all this.

It was very clear
when the money was due,

and it was also made clear
that if that money wasn't in,

there was gonna be consequences.

Cole Allen would use

the repayment of these loans
as a means

to blackmail his clients

in a very elaborate
loan-sharking scheme.

So he would take out
insurance policies

on the people
who owed him money,

and make himself and his company
the beneficiaries.

So now you have a situation
where someone is gonna spend

the rest of their life
paying this money.

And then when they're done
paying him,

then they're gonna die.

And then they're gonna
pay him some more.

That was one of the scams

that signal hill
police department as well as

the Los Angeles police
department were looking at.

Is Cole Allen
forcing his clients

to purchase life insurance

and then was he profiting by
having those clients murdered?

When we started
making arrangements

to go and interview Cole Allen,

we learned Cole Allen had died
of a massive heart attack

a couple of days before wengert
had in fact been shot.

It was extremely frustrating.

It raised more questions
than it provided answers.

We still conducted searches
at his business

to attempt to locate records

that might lead US
to who might have

shot James wengert.

As the investigation
uncovered a seedy motive

in the cold-blooded attack
on wengert,

detectives couldn't help
but recognize

the overt similarities
to the murder of Jane carver..

We decided to reach out

to fountain valley
police department

and ask them to start checking

for any connections
between the carver. Family

and Cole Allen
or premium commercial.

There's enough on the surface
of the two shootings

that police are looking into
whether or not

there's a connection there.

In both cases,
the attacker shot the victim

in the face before walking away.

This was something
that breathed a little air

back into the investigation.

There was talk that perhaps

the carver.S had
taken out a loan,

and that was not true.

I had never heard of Cole Allen
in my entire life.

What could possibly be
the connection there?

But the police thought
it was such an oddity.

It actually led
to more questioning.

And, truthfully, it led
to a lot of disappointment.

Fountain valley was
unable to identify

anything that remotely linked

Jane carver. With Cole Allen.

It was a dead end.

It seemed as if this lead
really had been snuffed out

before it could
even go anywhere.

I mean, there's a little bit
of panic there.

We just didn't know
if it was ever gonna be solved.

There's all
these different phases

that you go through,
and anger was one of them.

Why US?

Why her?

Why US as a family?

It was difficult, though,
because who are you angry with?

Besides... I guess, god?

These feelings that we went
through, my dad and brother

and I...
It lasted weeks, months.

It was drawn out.

Kim brown, I remember her

giving US hope, saying,
"we will find this person.

You just have to be patient."

We believed Kim,
but our Patience was

really dwindling
and we needed closure.

Fountain valley residents

wondered if their perfection
could ever return.

But the lack of leads
in two horrific crimes

seemed to hold little promise.

The Jane carver. Case
has gone cold.

And then the wengert attack,

especially
with the death of Cole Allen,

that's gone cold.

It doesn't look promising,
but then, something happens.

Ten days after the shooting
of James wengert,

Cole Allen's widow gets
a phone call.

And the person that's
on the phone identifies himself

as the triggerman.

The shooter believed
wengert had, in fact, died

on that garage floor,

and he was seeking payment,
as Cole was dead.

Everything indicated that Cole
Allen likely hired someone

to kill James wengert
for the life insurance payout.

I needed to ascertain
who this person was.

Who did Cole Allen hire
to shoot James wengert?

The surprise death of
orange county's most dangerous

loan shark, Cole Allen,
left detectives at a dead end.

Jane carver.'S brutal execution

and the near-fatal attempt
on James wengert's life

were like eerie mirrors
of each other.

Was this a random reflection?

Or did the surface match
reveal a deeper connection?

About ten days after
James wengert had been shot,

Cole Allen's widow
contacted law enforcement

to report that
a man had called her,

indicated he shot someone
at the direction of Cole Allen,

and he was demanding to be paid.

The caller was identified
as Paul alleyne.

We were able to find business
records from premium commercial

that tied Paul alleyne

directly to Cole Allen.

Paul alleyne is a man

who is in desperate straits.

Paul alleyne owns
an auto parts store and he also

owes money to Coleman Allen.

He's borrowed $30,000

with 36% interest
compounded annually.

This is a man
who was under the gun.

Could Paul alleyne's

insurmountable obligation

to Cole Allen have forced
his hand to commit murder?

A debt forgiven in exchange
for an unforgivable act?

We showed a photographic lineup
to James wengert,

and he positively identified

Paul alleyne as the person
who shot him in the face.

Suddenly, things are
starting to make sense.

Dots are being connected.

They pick him up
and they bring him in.

They hope that Paul alleyne is
the key that's gonna unlock

the door to this case.

During the interview
of Paul alleyne,

he continued to deny
any involvement

in the shooting
of James wengert.

So I challenged him on that.

And, in fact, told him,

that James wengert had not died
on that garage floor.

This got a visible reaction

from alleyne,
who seemed to be surprised.

He composed himself

rather quickly, and then said,
"well, it's a racial thing.

US black guys must all look
alike to an old white dude."

It was then that I reminded him

I had never described
James wengert to him.

The only reason he knew he was
"an old white dude"

was because he was the shooter.

I concluded the interview,
while I went

out into the office and asked

fountain valley to use
Paul alleyne's photograph

in a lineup
with their witnesses.

I was hopeful that if alleyne
was the person shooting

James wengert for Cole Allen,
maybe he had been involved

in shooting Jane carver.,
as well.

It was a long shot,
but you have

to just touch
every base in hopes

that you find the right answers.

News gets back
to fountain valley

about the arrest
of Paul alleyne.

And hope surges-- this is what
people have been waiting for.

This feels like
a break in the case.

We were very hopeful that
this was our suspect, too.

Unfortunately, Paul alleyne's

picture and description
did not match our suspect.

It was disappointing.

He was not picked out
by the eyewitnesses

as the shooter of Jane carver..

Back to square one
for fountain valley, and I

had to prepare for
the prosecution of Paul alleyne

for shooting wengert.

The case consumes you.

I'm thinking, "innocent victim,

"mother of two children,

"loved by everybody,

with absolutely
no reason to be killed."

This guy has to be out there.

He just has to be out there.

We as a family, we're also

concerned that we never
find this person.

Here is the angel pins

that we got from one
of our friends.

She brought them to everybody.

Then we all started wearing
the angel pins,

because Jane was
our angel looking over US.

We wore them to work
on our uniform.

We wore them every day

on our little lapels.

We hoped for something
good to happen,

but we were so afraid that

this was going
to just be a cold case.

We were confident in

the people that were
investigating

and sticking with it--
we really were.

We knew they were

adamant about
catching this person,

but at the same time,

without any leads,
it was, it was tough.

We knew it was tough for them.

Hope, however fleeting,

would not be lost,

thanks to the relentless
determination

of one of o.C.'S finest.

Christine Murray was going
through the transcripts

of the interrogation
of Paul alleyne,

and there on that page,

when she reads
this piece of information,

it hits her like a thunderbolt.

I found this

little... nugget of information.

Maybe a little piece of hope
for fountain valley

and Jane carver..

Near the end of the tape,

Paul alleyne made an offhanded
remark to my partner

that Cole Allen was mad

at a guy named Leonard Mundy,

because Leonard shot
the wrong person once.

It turns out that

Coleman Allen had sent
another person to do a job

and it didn't go well.

Could that have been
the shooting of Jane carver.?

There was some inquiry
by my partner as who was this?

What do you mean
he shot the wrong person?

Alleyne did not have
any details.

Hearing this on the tape,

what other murder happened
that I didn't know about?

Who was the wrong person
that got shot?

And who was Leonard Mundy?

Would one last lead

help detectives find
justice for Jane?

Or would her murder
be left unsolved?

Who was Leonard Mundy
and who did Leonard shoot?

A twisted piece of the puzzle
in the James wengert attack

revealed that there may be
another shooter out there

doing the dirty work
of Cole Allen.

I started going through
all of the documents

we had seized
from premium commercial,

but now instead of looking
for a needle in a haystack,

we needed to find
Leonard Mundy's

connection to Cole Allen
and the business,

and could it have anything
to do with fountain valley?

Leonard Mundy is
another small-business man.

And he's taken out a loan
from Coleman Allen.

In fact, he's taken out two.

There's a $40,000 loan and
then a month later, another one.

These are not numbers
that he can handle.

He is in a race to the bottom.

There's nothing about
Leonard Mundy's background

that suggests that he's
a violent man or a criminal.

But, you know, things change,

especially
when people are desperate.

But beyond
the now-clear connection

between Cole Allen
and Leonard Mundy,

a more tenuous link was
about to reveal itself,

as investigators tore
through the filing cabinets

at Cole Allen's business,
premium commercial.

I came across a file

that listed
a residential location

in fountain valley
and the owners of that property

were Margaret
and James wengert.

At the time wengert was shot,

they resided
in the city of San clemente.

So that led me to reach out
to the wengerts

and what I learned was

at the time
of Jane carver.'S murder,

the wengerts did, in fact,
live in fountain valley.

If the wengerts and the carver.S

both lived amidst the planned
perfection of fountain valley,

could there be
a more elusive connection?

Something that tied back to the
same slice of orange county

both claimed as their own?

So I conducted
a follow-up interview

with the wengerts and spoke

with Margaret wengert,
who went by the name Peggy.

And Peggy told me that

her husband and Cole Allen
had used their home

in fountain valley
as collateral to secure

the business loan James wengert
obtained from Cole Allen

without her knowledge.

And, in fact,
had forged her signature.

Cole Allen had been
attempting to seize

that house against
the debt wengert had accrued.

And as a result,
Peggy filed a civil lawsuit

against Cole Allen

for fraudulent
business practices,

and that suit was underway

in June of 1995.

By all accounts, Cole Allen
was livid and incensed

that Peggy wengert had
the audacity to sue him.

I looked at a calendar
and realized Peggy wengert

was due in court
to testify against Cole Allen

three to four days
after Jane carver.'S death.

Could that have, in any way,

contributed to the murder
of Jane carver.?

This new discovery
was soaked in mystery.

What had actually connected
the dots

on June 10, 1995,

in the pockets of this
perfectly planned community?

I decided to go look
at the wengert house

in fountain valley.

I had driven by using
the northbound 405 freeway,

and I inadvertently missed
the first brookhurst off-ramp,

which is what I needed
to get to the wengert home,

and instead took a cloverleaf,
or looping, off-ramp,

that pointed me in the
direction of the carver. Home.

And that made me start
to wonder,

could someone else
have made that same mistake?

Fountain valley is
a master-planned community,

and many
of the residential communities

tend to look
a little bit alike.

And I realized, if someone
told you to turn right

when you got off the freeway,
take the first turn,

pass a park,

and the next left takes you
into the wengert residence,

those same directions get you
to where Jane carver. Was shot,

if you made that mistake
on the off-ramp.

The two houses were almost
a mirror-image pattern

away from the freeway.

If a driver wasn't attentive

and didn't know whether
they were taking the north exit

or the south exit,
they could have ended up

in front of the wrong house.

And at the time
of Jane carver.'S murder,

Peggy wengert was
Cole Allen's biggest threat.

What if Jane carver. Were killed

because the master plan
of fountain valley

had undermined the master plan
of Coleman Allen?

I couldn't get past
the gut feeling

that led me to call
fountain valley back and say,

"I need you to do
one more photo lineup for me,

"and I want you to put in

a guy by the name
of Leonard Mundy."

When that photo came up,

there was no doubt that
that was our suspect.

Their witness
identified the shooter

of Jane carver.

As Leonard Mundy.

I was just so pleased
that finally

we had found him.

Fountain valley was able to get

a search warrant of their own

for premium commercial,
looking for documents

to tie Leonard Mundy
to Cole Allen and Peggy wengert.

And they found those documents.

They very much mirrored
the types of documents

that Paul alleyne had completed
for having shot James wengert.

Cole Allen was found
to have written off

two uncollectable loans,

and Cole Allen
didn't write off loans.

Cole Allen got his money back.

He was all about money.

The paper trail unveiled

Cole Allen's insidious greed.

Those fueled by desperation

would serve as reluctant
hit men to eradicate anyone

who dared stand
between him and his big payoff.

It was determined that the SWAT
team would serve the warrant

for Leonard Mundy
up in south L.A.

There was a lot of
anticipation-- I wanted to see

this person responsible
for this horrible crime.

When they brought him out,

it was just a culmination

of all the time,
energy and effort put into it,

and being able

to give the carver. Family
some closure.

The arrest of Leonard Mundy

brought to a finish line
much of the mystery

that surrounded the death
of Jane carver..

That's when you really start
to see all the moving pieces

and how they fit together.

After his arrest,

we needed to talk to him
and find out the truth.

It's even harder to believe now
than it was then.

Nearing
the one-year anniversary

of Jane carver.'S execution,

a hidden truth still lingered
in the seemingly safe streets

of this
perfectly planned place.

Even when you get
to the bottom of the mystery,

there's another mystery
waiting for you,

which led
to the entire unraveling

of this complex riddle.

What presents itself
is that Leonard Mundy

was sent to kill somebody,

but he ended up killing
Jane carver..

What put her in the crosshairs
that day?

The answer that they find is
a tragic one.

It turns out

she's a victim
of mistaken identity.

The actual target

on that June day in 1995

was Peggy wengert.

Peggy wengert

enraged Coleman Allen.

She had brought attention
to his criminal enterprises

through a lawsuit,
and he was furious.

He's not a guy
that you want to make angry.

So he launched an attack,

and that attack was
Leonard Mundy with a gun.

Leonard Mundy made a wrong turn

and shot the wrong person.

We did go
through all the records

to see what Cole Allen had
identifying Peggy wengert.

The only picture we were able
to find in the files

was an old driver's license
photo that had been xeroxed.

They may have somewhat,
size-wise, looked alike,

but obviously he decided
that Jane was his target,

and whatever amount of money he
got was worth taking her life.

Paul alleyne and Leonard Mundy

weren't sophisticated
criminals, but they

got caught up with...

Pure evil.

I would speculate that
Cole Allen used these men

to commit these assaults
because he could--

they were blackmailed
into taking actions

of an extremely violent nature.

He could intimidate them,
manipulate them,

order them around.

And he didn't have to pay them.

The truth came out, and it was

nothing short of shocking.

Something that I never

would have guessed.

It was relief,

but at the same time,

it was the worst kind
of scenario,

because we had nothing to do
with his business.

Somebody killed Jane,

thinking that
she was somebody else.

Are you kidding?
This is what actually happened?

That at least gives you
some sort of, I guess, closure,

and...

You know, you cross your fingers

and hope that justice is served.

Leonard Mundy was convicted

of the brutal killing
of Jane carver.

And then was sentenced

to life without the possibility
of parole.

Paul alleyne was convicted

of shooting James wengert

and was sentenced
to 25 years to life in prison.

It was pretty frustrating for US

that Allen wasn't alive
to see his day in court.

I feel for Mundy to this day.

He was in a tough spot and
had to make a stupid decision

that cost him his life,

and... cost US our mom.

I'm very relieved
with this, verdict today.

It's a day
that we've long awaited.

It's... kind of signals the,
the-the end

of a horrible chapter
in the life of our family.

At long last,
investigators had delivered

some measure of justice
for Janie.

And the community of fountain
valley rallied once more

around the memory
of one of their own.

Noteboom:
After something,

you know, so horrible,

you kind of want it
to stand for something,

and... and you don't want people

to forget.

We all thought
we would do something

that Janie
would really appreciate.

The marathon came together

as a way to honor Jane.

Jane...

Loved to run,

and she believed in education.

It was a huge success,

and the donations
that were made for the run

were going to be given
to some students

that needed a scholarship

so that they
could go on to college.

The race for Janie

raised $75,000,

and we had an entry of,
1,200 people.

I think the key
to solving this case

was the community.

The citizens
of fountain valley,

they kept Jane's memory alive,

and, because of that,
led US to think:

Is there a relation
between a San clemente shooting

and Jane's murder?

It's painful,
but I want her to be remembered

so that people know how she was.

I miss her so much.

It's never a hundred
percent better, but it's

just a little bit easier

as time goes on.

We've put our best foot
forward, and we try

and stay positive as a family,
and one thing

that was important
with all this is that

it brought my dad
and my brother and I

very close together.

If my mom were around today,

I would like to think
she'd be still traveling,

hanging out
with the-the grandchildren,

hopefully,

keeping my dad good company,

and living life

to the fullest--
she was good at that.

I'd like to think that
would carry on to this day.
