3
00:00:45,545 --> 00:00:48,358
-Police on alert
after a deadly rampage.
4
00:00:48,382 --> 00:00:52,594
Five victims slain randomly,
all within 15 hours.
5
00:00:58,267 --> 00:01:00,269
-What am I gonna tell her...
Jocelin?
6
00:01:02,854 --> 00:01:04,815
How did I'm gonna tell her this?
7
00:01:07,276 --> 00:01:09,212
Her mom is not coming back.
19
00:04:26,057 --> 00:04:28,703
-Hello, this is a call from...
20
00:04:28,727 --> 00:04:30,496
-Lee Malvo
21
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,331
- an inmate at the Virginia
Department of Corrections,
22
00:04:32,355 --> 00:04:35,376
Red Onion State Prison.
23
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:40,423
-41-year-old man, John Muhammad,
and a Jamaican-born teenager...
24
00:04:40,447 --> 00:04:43,843
Sniper team that terrorized the
Washington metropolitan area.
25
00:04:43,867 --> 00:04:47,180
-19-11 I have one down.
There's blood all over...
26
00:04:47,204 --> 00:04:49,682
-...three weeks,
the most intense manhunt
27
00:04:49,706 --> 00:04:51,225
in American history...
28
00:04:51,249 --> 00:04:53,895
-The serial killer hunting down
random citizens.
29
00:04:53,919 --> 00:04:56,772
-We have fear levels hear that
I think are higher
30
00:04:56,796 --> 00:04:58,566
than they were
after September 11th.
31
00:04:58,590 --> 00:05:00,109
-Let me go past!
32
00:05:00,133 --> 00:05:02,612
-President Bush is talking about
fighting Iraq,
33
00:05:02,636 --> 00:05:06,491
and we have a war zone right
here in this own country.
34
00:05:06,515 --> 00:05:09,202
-Oh! Oh!
35
00:05:09,226 --> 00:05:12,788
Oh, man! Oh man!
39
00:05:32,499 --> 00:05:35,102
-Tonight, the manhunt still
underway, yet police admit
40
00:05:35,126 --> 00:05:36,854
they still don't know
what kind of person
41
00:05:36,878 --> 00:05:38,105
they are looking for.
42
00:05:38,129 --> 00:05:40,316
There are so few clues.
43
00:05:40,340 --> 00:05:43,653
-The person or the people
that are doing this,
44
00:05:43,677 --> 00:05:45,655
rethink what you're doing,
45
00:05:45,679 --> 00:05:50,868
turn yourself in
to law enforcement.
46
00:05:50,892 --> 00:05:53,746
-The person won't stop
on his own.
47
00:05:53,770 --> 00:05:55,331
He likes the shooting.
48
00:05:55,355 --> 00:05:57,458
This...
This is emotional heroin.
49
00:05:57,482 --> 00:06:00,485
And this person won't stop
until he's caught or killed.
50
00:06:20,463 --> 00:06:27,363
51
00:06:27,387 --> 00:06:34,245
52
00:06:34,269 --> 00:06:41,192
53
00:06:55,248 --> 00:07:03,248
54
00:07:05,091 --> 00:07:06,652
-Uh, good morning.
55
00:07:06,676 --> 00:07:09,238
We're happy to report
a very quiet overnight,
56
00:07:09,262 --> 00:07:11,931
no incidents related
to our situation.
57
00:07:15,018 --> 00:07:19,373
Very clearly, we are
at a level of anxiety
58
00:07:19,397 --> 00:07:22,126
with our morning rush hour
getting ready to start.
59
00:07:22,150 --> 00:07:26,172
I want, again, report a regular,
60
00:07:26,196 --> 00:07:30,176
normal opening of school.
61
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,428
We expect a regular school day.
62
00:07:32,452 --> 00:07:37,874
63
00:07:52,639 --> 00:08:00,639
64
00:09:16,514 --> 00:09:23,581
65
00:09:23,605 --> 00:09:30,629
66
00:09:30,653 --> 00:09:37,744
67
00:09:46,503 --> 00:09:54,503
68
00:10:19,786 --> 00:10:27,786
69
00:10:28,044 --> 00:10:32,566
-I came early for a meeting,
and I was coming down the steps.
70
00:10:32,590 --> 00:10:34,634
I heard a very loud bang.
71
00:10:37,220 --> 00:10:39,615
When I opened the door,
I expected to see a student
72
00:10:39,639 --> 00:10:41,075
right on the other side.
73
00:10:41,099 --> 00:10:42,910
I thought maybe somebody
had kicked the door.
74
00:10:42,934 --> 00:10:46,330
However, I saw a student like
10 feet away
75
00:10:46,354 --> 00:10:50,918
and yelling in pain.
76
00:10:50,942 --> 00:10:54,713
By the time I approached him,
he was going down,
77
00:10:54,737 --> 00:10:58,384
and he indicated
that he had been shot.
78
00:10:58,408 --> 00:11:01,744
He was clutching his stomach,
and he was afraid.
79
00:11:06,624 --> 00:11:07,876
-Uh-huh.
80
00:11:35,945 --> 00:11:38,740
-Is he conscious, breathing?
86
00:12:16,277 --> 00:12:19,423
-The one thing we knew...
That a high-powered rifle
87
00:12:19,447 --> 00:12:22,384
was used
in all of the other injuries.
88
00:12:22,408 --> 00:12:25,054
So, we were preparing ourselves
for what's called
89
00:12:25,078 --> 00:12:26,704
a blast injury.
90
00:12:28,998 --> 00:12:31,310
-Well, the mood was intense
91
00:12:31,334 --> 00:12:35,064
in all of the shootings,
in all of the deaths.
92
00:12:35,088 --> 00:12:38,817
It was really a anxious time.
94
00:12:40,551 --> 00:12:43,346
No one ever thought
that a child would be involved.
95
00:12:45,932 --> 00:12:47,618
-What happens is,
when the bullet goes in
96
00:12:47,642 --> 00:12:51,705
to any kind of an organ,
it generates a lot of energy,
97
00:12:51,729 --> 00:12:53,749
so it's like a cone
that goes out.
98
00:12:53,773 --> 00:12:55,960
So, the bullet might be
going straight,
99
00:12:55,984 --> 00:12:58,963
but that energy
that the bullet creates
100
00:12:58,987 --> 00:13:00,547
hits all the organs
101
00:13:00,571 --> 00:13:03,592
like you were thinking about
a cone itself.
102
00:13:03,616 --> 00:13:05,636
The spleen was shattered.
103
00:13:05,660 --> 00:13:08,514
Part of the tail of his pancreas
was injured.
104
00:13:08,538 --> 00:13:11,850
The lobe of the liver...
That was also shattered.
105
00:13:11,874 --> 00:13:16,772
He had a hole in his stomach,
and there was a lot of bleeding.
106
00:13:16,796 --> 00:13:18,565
Just that in and of itself
was enough
107
00:13:18,589 --> 00:13:20,109
to make me really concerned
108
00:13:20,133 --> 00:13:22,653
about how critical
his potential survival was.
109
00:13:22,677 --> 00:13:25,179
I was not convinced
that he was gonna survive.
110
00:13:27,515 --> 00:13:33,414
111
00:13:33,438 --> 00:13:37,459
-This just in
to the WTOP newsroom...
112
00:13:37,483 --> 00:13:39,753
-There has been a shooting
at a school this morning.
113
00:13:39,777 --> 00:13:41,296
A child has been shot
114
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,590
in front of the
Benjamin Tasker Middle School.
115
00:13:43,614 --> 00:13:45,300
This is in Bowie.
116
00:13:45,324 --> 00:13:47,511
There is no word on the
circumstances of this shooting
117
00:13:47,535 --> 00:13:49,346
or the condition of the child.
118
00:13:49,370 --> 00:13:52,224
-Understandably, the tensions
are very, very high in Bowie
119
00:13:52,248 --> 00:13:54,059
where a 13-year-old boy
has been shot.
120
00:13:54,083 --> 00:13:55,894
He's critically injured.
121
00:13:55,918 --> 00:13:57,771
-The shooting comes on the heels
of a series of deadly shootings
122
00:13:57,795 --> 00:13:59,356
that started
in Montgomery County,
123
00:13:59,380 --> 00:14:02,443
then extended into D.C.
and Northern Virginia.
124
00:14:02,467 --> 00:14:06,488
-The situation at Tasker
right now is a little fluid.
125
00:14:06,512 --> 00:14:08,490
We're trying to get kids
back home
126
00:14:08,514 --> 00:14:12,077
to their parents
from this one school only.
127
00:14:12,101 --> 00:14:13,829
All other schools,
128
00:14:13,853 --> 00:14:17,207
we are securing students
in those buildings.
129
00:14:17,231 --> 00:14:22,796
130
00:14:22,820 --> 00:14:24,423
-I don't know what's gonna
happen tomorrow,
131
00:14:24,447 --> 00:14:26,008
but I know what's
going on right now.
132
00:14:26,032 --> 00:14:27,342
He's with me.
133
00:14:27,366 --> 00:14:29,762
That's what's important.
134
00:14:29,786 --> 00:14:32,806
-I'm just happy that my dad
came to get me.
136
00:14:35,750 --> 00:14:38,062
-We've now crossed over,
where a student,
137
00:14:38,086 --> 00:14:39,813
an innocent student,
138
00:14:39,837 --> 00:14:42,816
doing what every student does
throughout this area...
139
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,718
Going to school every day...
Is shot.
140
00:14:49,388 --> 00:14:53,577
When you now involve
innocent children,
141
00:14:53,601 --> 00:14:57,664
in a wave of crime,
homicide shootings,
142
00:14:57,688 --> 00:15:00,417
you've crossed a line
in this country.
143
00:15:00,441 --> 00:15:04,421
I think it was a cold
and calculated message to say,
144
00:15:04,445 --> 00:15:07,216
"Now we're here to demonstrate
145
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,802
that your children are not safe.
146
00:15:09,826 --> 00:15:11,970
You haven't been able
to stop us,
147
00:15:11,994 --> 00:15:15,933
and now we are now going after
children."
148
00:15:15,957 --> 00:15:19,269
-I feel like this is a...
A war zone that I'm living in.
149
00:15:19,293 --> 00:15:24,024
You know, President Bush
is talking about fighting Iraq,
150
00:15:24,048 --> 00:15:25,651
going in and fighting Iraq,
151
00:15:25,675 --> 00:15:28,862
and we have a war right here
in this own county.
153
00:15:31,222 --> 00:15:33,867
-All right, guys.
154
00:15:33,891 --> 00:15:37,145
-Now this kid's been shot,
it becomes personal.
155
00:15:41,607 --> 00:15:45,027
It becomes us against them,
and we're losing.
157
00:15:50,533 --> 00:15:55,013
Whoever it is, is pretty good.
158
00:15:55,037 --> 00:15:57,599
Of course, we're all
really hoping
159
00:15:57,623 --> 00:15:59,893
and praying
that this kid makes it
160
00:15:59,917 --> 00:16:02,688
because now the whole game
has changed.
161
00:16:02,712 --> 00:16:09,444
162
00:16:09,468 --> 00:16:13,574
-Today, it went down
to the children.
163
00:16:13,598 --> 00:16:17,411
Someone is so mean-spirited
164
00:16:17,435 --> 00:16:19,746
that they shot a child.
165
00:16:19,770 --> 00:16:22,916
Now, all of our victims
have been innocent,
166
00:16:22,940 --> 00:16:24,960
have been defenseless.
167
00:16:24,984 --> 00:16:27,546
But now we're stepping
over the line
168
00:16:27,570 --> 00:16:30,632
because our children
don't deserve this.
169
00:16:30,656 --> 00:16:34,720
So, parents, please,
do your job tonight...
170
00:16:34,744 --> 00:16:39,266
Engage your children,
be there for them.
171
00:16:39,290 --> 00:16:40,559
We're gonna need it.
172
00:16:40,583 --> 00:16:42,168
We're gonna need you
to support them.
173
00:16:44,587 --> 00:16:47,900
I guess it's getting to be
really, really personal now.
174
00:16:47,924 --> 00:16:50,819
So, if there's any doubt
out there
175
00:16:50,843 --> 00:16:53,030
what law enforcement
is gonna be engaged in,
176
00:16:53,054 --> 00:16:57,075
what we're gonna be doing,
then you can remove all doubt.
177
00:16:57,099 --> 00:17:03,290
178
00:17:03,314 --> 00:17:07,628
When you're on TV at a press
conference as the police chief
179
00:17:07,652 --> 00:17:13,425
and you cry,
that's really, for many people,
180
00:17:13,449 --> 00:17:15,135
I guess it's unacceptable.
181
00:17:15,159 --> 00:17:21,016
182
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,269
You know, I didn't have any plan
to do that.
183
00:17:24,293 --> 00:17:27,356
That wasn't kind of
one of those, uh,
184
00:17:27,380 --> 00:17:29,191
"Let's have a meeting,
and we'll talk about it,
185
00:17:29,215 --> 00:17:32,194
and then when you get to
this moment,
186
00:17:32,218 --> 00:17:34,470
uh, you know, cry."
187
00:17:37,390 --> 00:17:41,036
But I will always be thankful
for a number of people
188
00:17:41,060 --> 00:17:44,414
in Montgomery County
and other places.
189
00:17:44,438 --> 00:17:47,334
They sent a message that
they appreciated the fact
190
00:17:47,358 --> 00:17:51,880
that they've got somebody
that cares.
191
00:17:51,904 --> 00:17:53,215
-The 13-year-old reportedly
192
00:17:53,239 --> 00:17:55,050
is suffering
from heavy blood loss,
193
00:17:55,074 --> 00:17:57,010
with wounds to his chest and...
194
00:17:57,034 --> 00:17:58,470
-Taken to Children's Hospital,
where he underwent surgery.
195
00:17:58,494 --> 00:18:01,098
He was last reported
in critical condition.
196
00:18:01,122 --> 00:18:02,808
We're gonna now take you
to Children's Hospital
197
00:18:02,832 --> 00:18:04,309
for an update.
198
00:18:04,333 --> 00:18:06,061
-And just confirm that
we have been taking care
199
00:18:06,085 --> 00:18:10,399
of a young man who sustained
a significant gunshot wound.
200
00:18:10,423 --> 00:18:13,610
It entered his abdomen,
went through his chest.
201
00:18:13,634 --> 00:18:15,237
-Is he breathing on his own?
202
00:18:15,261 --> 00:18:16,697
-No, he's not breathing
on his own.
203
00:18:16,721 --> 00:18:18,115
He's on a ventilator.
204
00:18:18,139 --> 00:18:20,659
We are actually,
uh, breathing for him,
205
00:18:20,683 --> 00:18:23,412
and we anticipate
over the next eight hours
206
00:18:23,436 --> 00:18:26,957
that we'll see how he responds.
207
00:18:26,981 --> 00:18:31,694
208
00:18:33,738 --> 00:18:38,218
209
00:18:38,242 --> 00:18:39,761
-A child has been shot
in front of
210
00:18:39,785 --> 00:18:42,264
the Benjamin Tasker
Middle School.
211
00:18:42,288 --> 00:18:50,288
212
00:18:51,589 --> 00:18:53,442
-Hey, hey!
How are you, man?
213
00:18:53,466 --> 00:18:54,860
Hey!
- How you doing?
214
00:18:54,884 --> 00:18:57,362
-The basketball player.
How you been?
215
00:18:57,386 --> 00:18:58,739
- I've been well.
- Can you still shoot that hoop?
216
00:18:58,763 --> 00:19:00,699
- Yes, sir.
- Huh? I got a picture of you
217
00:19:00,723 --> 00:19:03,243
up there with that ball
just going up there, huh?
218
00:19:03,267 --> 00:19:04,911
Hey, you look fantastic.
- He's a lot taller.
219
00:19:04,935 --> 00:19:07,289
- Yes, sir.
- Let me see your wound here.
220
00:19:07,313 --> 00:19:10,375
- Absolutely, absolutely.
- Oh, look at that!
221
00:19:10,399 --> 00:19:11,793
You must've had
some great surgeons.
222
00:19:11,817 --> 00:19:13,295
That's all I can tell you.
223
00:19:13,319 --> 00:19:15,130
Look at this.
224
00:19:15,154 --> 00:19:16,715
-My name is Iran Brown,
225
00:19:16,739 --> 00:19:19,092
and I was 13 years old
when I was shot.
226
00:19:19,116 --> 00:19:27,116
227
00:19:27,583 --> 00:19:33,023
-This is the WTOP radio network,
WTOP Washington, WTOP...
228
00:19:33,047 --> 00:19:36,258
-That morning I was driven
to school by my Aunt Tanya.
229
00:19:38,594 --> 00:19:44,993
I was suspended from the bus
because I was eating a Twizzler.
230
00:19:45,017 --> 00:19:48,955
And immediately after I got
out of the car, I was shot.
231
00:19:48,979 --> 00:19:55,003
232
00:19:55,027 --> 00:19:58,507
It was a burning sensation,
233
00:19:58,531 --> 00:20:00,050
and I remember
looking in the mirror.
234
00:20:00,074 --> 00:20:03,595
I was becoming real pale.
235
00:20:03,619 --> 00:20:05,830
-Is he... is he conscious
and breathing?
236
00:20:09,708 --> 00:20:11,436
-I was just losing
a lot of blood.
237
00:20:11,460 --> 00:20:13,438
My body was obviously in shock.
238
00:20:13,462 --> 00:20:15,214
My adrenaline was pumping.
239
00:20:19,552 --> 00:20:22,197
It was... it was difficult.
240
00:20:22,221 --> 00:20:25,242
It was difficult.
241
00:20:25,266 --> 00:20:26,809
-Okay, so you picked him up...
242
00:20:27,309 --> 00:20:28,853
Okay.
243
00:20:36,277 --> 00:20:37,879
-I just wanted to survive.
244
00:20:37,903 --> 00:20:44,094
245
00:20:44,118 --> 00:20:46,555
I remember explaining
to my aunt, that, uh...
246
00:20:46,579 --> 00:20:49,766
That I loved her and that...
Just that I appreciate her,
247
00:20:49,790 --> 00:20:53,061
and I was almost
preparing myself to possibly,
248
00:20:53,085 --> 00:20:54,670
you know, pass away.
249
00:20:58,799 --> 00:21:02,779
I remember being placed
on the gurney.
250
00:21:02,803 --> 00:21:05,264
Everybody was all rushing
to my aid.
251
00:21:07,433 --> 00:21:10,060
And shortly after, I passed out.
252
00:21:13,439 --> 00:21:15,709
-Well, we did take out
his spleen,
253
00:21:15,733 --> 00:21:19,921
a portion of his stomach,
a portion of his pancreas.
254
00:21:19,945 --> 00:21:21,506
The main thing
was to stop the bleeding
255
00:21:21,530 --> 00:21:25,177
that was coming
from those organs.
256
00:21:25,201 --> 00:21:28,555
I think he has weathered
a significant injury,
257
00:21:28,579 --> 00:21:31,641
and as of this point,
we're satisfied
258
00:21:31,665 --> 00:21:33,727
with how he has
gotten through surgery.
259
00:21:33,751 --> 00:21:35,103
- It's so good to see you.
- Thanks for coming.
260
00:21:35,127 --> 00:21:36,605
- My pleasure, guys.
- Yeah.
261
00:21:36,629 --> 00:21:38,064
- You guys are my heroes.
- Are you kidding me?
262
00:21:38,088 --> 00:21:39,774
- When did you get this tall?
263
00:21:39,798 --> 00:21:41,109
-I mean, I remember
this little guy
264
00:21:41,133 --> 00:21:42,986
laying there on the bed,
don't you?
265
00:21:43,010 --> 00:21:49,993
266
00:21:50,017 --> 00:21:51,453
-When I first came around,
267
00:21:51,477 --> 00:21:55,540
the first thing I saw
was my mother.
268
00:21:55,564 --> 00:21:59,127
That was a wonderful feeling.
269
00:21:59,151 --> 00:22:02,005
She was very emotional.
270
00:22:02,029 --> 00:22:06,843
271
00:22:06,867 --> 00:22:10,472
I believe my experience
definitely had a lot to do
272
00:22:10,496 --> 00:22:13,099
with what I do for a living.
273
00:22:13,123 --> 00:22:17,479
I work in the medical field,
and I just truly believe
274
00:22:17,503 --> 00:22:20,506
serving others
is the rent that we should pay.
275
00:22:23,676 --> 00:22:25,862
I give thanks every day.
276
00:22:25,886 --> 00:22:32,702
277
00:22:32,726 --> 00:22:34,353
It's a blessing.
278
00:22:36,939 --> 00:22:40,460
I just have to live with the
fact that I'll never be 100%.
282
00:22:52,162 --> 00:22:55,392
-Bowie is overrun by federal
and local officers.
283
00:22:55,416 --> 00:22:58,645
The ATF, the FBI,
and the Secret Service
284
00:22:58,669 --> 00:23:01,690
are all assisting.
285
00:23:01,714 --> 00:23:04,067
Investigators are scouring
for any evidence,
286
00:23:04,091 --> 00:23:05,360
like a bullet casing,
287
00:23:05,384 --> 00:23:07,862
that a sniper might've
left behind.
289
00:23:14,977 --> 00:23:16,538
- It was my first dog.
290
00:23:16,562 --> 00:23:18,456
His name was, uh, Beacon.
292
00:23:23,485 --> 00:23:25,005
His role that day, my role,
293
00:23:25,029 --> 00:23:27,906
was to search for evidence
of shell casings.
294
00:23:30,367 --> 00:23:33,579
They asked me to go in
and search this woodline.
295
00:23:36,248 --> 00:23:40,312
If we look to my right,
the woodline, uh,
296
00:23:40,336 --> 00:23:44,232
starts just past
those two trees right there.
297
00:23:44,256 --> 00:23:46,401
So, what I did was I kind of
tried to imagine
298
00:23:46,425 --> 00:23:50,596
if I was trying to shoot
somebody, where would I be?
299
00:23:53,223 --> 00:23:55,744
I just needed to come out
with a search pattern.
300
00:23:55,768 --> 00:23:58,371
So, I knew I didn't need to go
behind the school
301
00:23:58,395 --> 00:24:02,792
because obviously the bullets
don't turn corners.
302
00:24:02,816 --> 00:24:05,754
Come on. Let's go.
Seek.
303
00:24:05,778 --> 00:24:08,798
A shell casing does not put out
a lot of odor,
304
00:24:08,822 --> 00:24:12,242
so that's a very tough search
for any dog to do.
305
00:24:14,745 --> 00:24:17,682
One of the SWAT officers said,
"It's gonna be very unlikely
306
00:24:17,706 --> 00:24:19,476
that we're gonna
find anything."
309
00:24:26,423 --> 00:24:28,818
Honestly, I didn't even notice
the change in behavior
310
00:24:28,842 --> 00:24:33,031
until he said, "Hey,
pay attention to your dog."
311
00:24:33,055 --> 00:24:35,367
And when I looked,
he was sniffing a branch
312
00:24:35,391 --> 00:24:39,287
that was on the ground.
313
00:24:39,311 --> 00:24:43,357
The most tell-tale sign was that
big drool that was coming down.
314
00:24:46,902 --> 00:24:49,756
And hours later, they found
the shell casing in the area
315
00:24:49,780 --> 00:24:51,365
that the dog alerted.
316
00:24:55,786 --> 00:24:58,306
And that evening, one of
the agents called and said,
317
00:24:58,330 --> 00:25:01,041
"Hey, they found a...
Some type of note."
318
00:25:05,421 --> 00:25:07,148
It was a tarot card,
319
00:25:07,172 --> 00:25:10,235
and it had a very dark-sounding
statement on it.
322
00:25:23,522 --> 00:25:25,667
-On the back of the card,
there was a handwritten note
323
00:25:25,691 --> 00:25:28,503
that said, "Call me God.
324
00:25:28,527 --> 00:25:30,404
Do not release to the press."
325
00:25:32,531 --> 00:25:36,886
It didn't give a whole lot
of information.
326
00:25:36,910 --> 00:25:42,166
But it did mean that the shooter
was beginning to speak to us.
327
00:25:43,876 --> 00:25:46,020
Even though we didn't know
who we were talking to,
328
00:25:46,044 --> 00:25:50,024
we believed that
we were talking to the shooter.
329
00:25:50,048 --> 00:25:51,735
-The "Mister Police"...
Why does he...
330
00:25:51,759 --> 00:25:54,988
Why does he use that language?
331
00:25:55,012 --> 00:25:58,700
Is this someone who's been
put down by the police?
332
00:25:58,724 --> 00:26:01,453
Is there a grievance
by the police?
333
00:26:01,477 --> 00:26:06,416
Uh, why does he use that term
"Call Me God"?
334
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:07,876
"Please don't release
to the press"...
335
00:26:07,900 --> 00:26:11,004
That could have suggested
the author,
336
00:26:11,028 --> 00:26:14,674
the schemer behind the document,
was an older male.
337
00:26:14,698 --> 00:26:16,092
-Do we need to now, you know,
338
00:26:16,116 --> 00:26:17,385
do something
to trigger a shooting?
339
00:26:17,409 --> 00:26:18,970
No.
So, we're gonna respect
340
00:26:18,994 --> 00:26:20,263
the fact that says
"Do not release to the press,"
341
00:26:20,287 --> 00:26:21,598
and we're not gonna
talk about it,
342
00:26:21,622 --> 00:26:22,807
and we're not gonna
tell the press.
344
00:26:25,918 --> 00:26:27,562
-We continue to follow
developments
345
00:26:27,586 --> 00:26:30,273
in Montgomery County...
A terrible murder rampage.
346
00:26:30,297 --> 00:26:33,067
-However, unfortunately,
the next morning
347
00:26:33,091 --> 00:26:35,236
somehow
one of the local channels
348
00:26:35,260 --> 00:26:37,781
got information
about what the card said.
349
00:26:37,805 --> 00:26:41,242
-It could be a critical clue
in the sniper shootings.
350
00:26:41,266 --> 00:26:44,621
The gunman reportedly has left
a message for police.
351
00:26:44,645 --> 00:26:46,915
-Morning, Katie. Well, more
about that calling card.
352
00:26:46,939 --> 00:26:49,751
It was left at the scene
of the most recent shooting.
353
00:26:49,775 --> 00:26:52,420
It was a card
from a fortune-telling deck.
354
00:26:52,444 --> 00:26:54,255
-A Tarot card like this one
355
00:26:54,279 --> 00:26:57,759
that law-enforcement sources
say shows the figure of death.
356
00:26:57,783 --> 00:26:59,260
-I just said,
"Now, wait a minute.
357
00:26:59,284 --> 00:27:02,096
Is this card really part
of this thing," you know?
358
00:27:02,120 --> 00:27:03,598
I mean, come on.
This is like...
359
00:27:03,622 --> 00:27:05,934
it's really got to be
a horror flick
360
00:27:05,958 --> 00:27:07,560
if they dropping cards
and stuff.
361
00:27:07,584 --> 00:27:09,687
It's like "Silence of the Lambs"
or something.
362
00:27:09,711 --> 00:27:12,065
-To leave a Tarot card
at the scene
363
00:27:12,089 --> 00:27:15,485
the way the Son of Sam did
in the New York cases
364
00:27:15,509 --> 00:27:18,279
and the Zodiac Killer did
in California...
365
00:27:18,303 --> 00:27:20,615
-Tarot cards
are packed with symbolism.
366
00:27:20,639 --> 00:27:24,744
A message on the card reads
"Dear policeman, I am God."
367
00:27:24,768 --> 00:27:27,288
- on this report
of the tarot card
368
00:27:27,312 --> 00:27:31,626
found near
the Prince George's County site?
369
00:27:31,650 --> 00:27:38,925
-It is inappropriate to comment
about this... card.
370
00:27:38,949 --> 00:27:43,972
There's not been anything
authorized for release by me.
371
00:27:43,996 --> 00:27:47,308
-Obviously, this leak had come
from law enforcement.
372
00:27:47,332 --> 00:27:51,604
And why someone would
basically sell their soul
373
00:27:51,628 --> 00:27:54,148
and give that kind
of information out
374
00:27:54,172 --> 00:27:57,694
that might jeopardize
the investigation,
375
00:27:57,718 --> 00:28:00,488
or, worse, cause someone else
to get shot
376
00:28:00,512 --> 00:28:05,243
because you did what the shooter
said not to do,
377
00:28:05,267 --> 00:28:08,788
and the Chief was, ballistic,
to coin a phrase.
378
00:28:08,812 --> 00:28:10,248
-Our citizens have asked
379
00:28:10,272 --> 00:28:12,208
the Montgomery County
Police Department
380
00:28:12,232 --> 00:28:15,128
and all available
federal resources
381
00:28:15,152 --> 00:28:17,338
to work this case.
382
00:28:17,362 --> 00:28:19,841
I have not received any message
383
00:28:19,865 --> 00:28:22,176
that the citizens
of Montgomery County
384
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,846
want Channel 9
or "The Washington Post"
385
00:28:24,870 --> 00:28:28,057
or any other media outlet
to solve this case.
386
00:28:28,081 --> 00:28:30,435
If they do, then let me know.
387
00:28:30,459 --> 00:28:32,645
We will go and do
other police work,
388
00:28:32,669 --> 00:28:35,857
and we will turn this case
over to the media.
389
00:28:35,881 --> 00:28:38,526
-Well, this was indeed
an extraordinary news conference
390
00:28:38,550 --> 00:28:41,905
in Montgomery County
this morning, just minutes ago.
391
00:28:41,929 --> 00:28:44,741
-We all have responsibilities,
and we all have jobs to do.
392
00:28:44,765 --> 00:28:48,036
Our job is not to sit there
and just report the information
393
00:28:48,060 --> 00:28:51,039
that's handed out
at those briefings.
394
00:28:51,063 --> 00:28:55,710
-So, I think that there is an
investigative-reporter concept,
395
00:28:55,734 --> 00:28:59,255
and they're trying to get ahead
of their competitors,
396
00:28:59,279 --> 00:29:01,758
or, you know... or maybe they...
397
00:29:01,782 --> 00:29:04,052
They actually want
to solve the case themselves
398
00:29:04,076 --> 00:29:06,453
because that probably
helps their career.
399
00:29:22,678 --> 00:29:24,906
-Law-enforcement sources
say the card has been taken
400
00:29:24,930 --> 00:29:27,200
to an FBI lab for testing,
401
00:29:27,224 --> 00:29:30,620
looking for the card's origin
and analysis of the message.
402
00:29:30,644 --> 00:29:33,331
-And they're not giving us
a psychological profile?
403
00:29:33,355 --> 00:29:35,041
- No, No.
- They have one. They have...
404
00:29:35,065 --> 00:29:36,584
and we've talked to
lots of profilers
405
00:29:36,608 --> 00:29:38,252
who are not necessarily
working on this case.
406
00:29:38,276 --> 00:29:39,754
-You want a profile?
407
00:29:39,778 --> 00:29:41,923
Here's a guy who's gonna
turn out, I believe,
408
00:29:41,947 --> 00:29:44,008
to be a white, middle-aged male.
409
00:29:44,032 --> 00:29:45,843
-Statistically,
it's gonna be a white male
410
00:29:45,867 --> 00:29:49,430
-White male.
Young white male.
412
00:29:58,088 --> 00:30:01,192
It... it's somebody who's
probably working alone.
413
00:30:01,216 --> 00:30:03,778
-He's gone through a nasty
separation or divorce.
414
00:30:03,802 --> 00:30:05,488
-Significant substance abuse...
415
00:30:05,512 --> 00:30:07,490
Drug, alcohol, something
like that involved.
416
00:30:07,514 --> 00:30:10,660
-He's had training in firearms,
maybe the military.
417
00:30:10,684 --> 00:30:12,662
-These are people
who would relish
418
00:30:12,686 --> 00:30:15,022
seeing the press attention
that they're getting.
419
00:30:24,781 --> 00:30:32,557
420
00:30:32,581 --> 00:30:35,768
-We still do not know
who this is who's doing it.
421
00:30:35,792 --> 00:30:38,312
I don't think anybody can leap
to any conclusions
422
00:30:38,336 --> 00:30:41,274
or reach any conclusions
about who this is,
423
00:30:41,298 --> 00:30:43,401
and don't interpret that
to mean that we're open to
424
00:30:43,425 --> 00:30:45,153
the possibility that it is
something connected
425
00:30:45,177 --> 00:30:46,612
to terrorism.
426
00:30:46,636 --> 00:30:50,450
We simply don't know.
427
00:30:50,474 --> 00:30:54,311
-This case didn't make sense.
428
00:30:58,607 --> 00:31:01,794
The only thing I saw was just
random shootings,
429
00:31:01,818 --> 00:31:04,255
a shooting spree,
430
00:31:04,279 --> 00:31:08,092
that was to terrorize
our part of the world.
431
00:31:08,116 --> 00:31:14,265
432
00:31:14,289 --> 00:31:19,419
My boss said, "Toni, I want you
to stand up a tip line."
433
00:31:22,589 --> 00:31:24,025
And I looked at him.
434
00:31:24,049 --> 00:31:28,154
I said, "You gotta be kidding.
435
00:31:28,178 --> 00:31:31,115
Do you know what kind
of resources
436
00:31:31,139 --> 00:31:33,326
that's gonna bleed
out of our office?
437
00:31:33,350 --> 00:31:35,328
Are you kidding me?"
438
00:31:35,352 --> 00:31:38,897
And he said,
"You've got 24 hours."
439
00:31:41,441 --> 00:31:43,086
We didn't have
the infrastructure.
440
00:31:43,110 --> 00:31:44,879
We had to put in plugs.
We were putting in outlets.
441
00:31:44,903 --> 00:31:46,881
We were putting in computers.
We were setting up phones.
442
00:31:46,905 --> 00:31:49,509
We were setting up lines.
443
00:31:49,533 --> 00:31:52,887
And we barely got it completed
by 6:00
444
00:31:52,911 --> 00:31:55,247
the morning we were
supposed to turn it on.
445
00:31:57,999 --> 00:32:01,229
And we had a big-screen TV
on the front of the room,
446
00:32:01,253 --> 00:32:02,563
and I'll never forget it.
447
00:32:02,587 --> 00:32:05,817
The 1-888 number
went up on the screen...
448
00:32:05,841 --> 00:32:07,902
-I want to throw out
this tip-line number.
449
00:32:07,926 --> 00:32:09,195
If you know anything,
450
00:32:09,219 --> 00:32:10,780
if you think
you know anything...
451
00:32:10,804 --> 00:32:15,409
888-324-9800.
452
00:32:15,433 --> 00:32:17,829
- and within seconds,
453
00:32:17,853 --> 00:32:22,166
there was so much noise
of phones ringing
454
00:32:22,190 --> 00:32:24,168
that I was stunned.
456
00:32:26,695 --> 00:32:29,006
One of my technical supervisors
came up behind me
457
00:32:29,030 --> 00:32:31,634
and said, "We're already
15 minutes backlogged."
459
00:32:34,578 --> 00:32:39,767
We ended up having 88 lines
going at a time, 24/7.
461
00:32:47,507 --> 00:32:50,111
-We were tasked with trying
to get a handle
462
00:32:50,135 --> 00:32:53,054
of the thousands of tips
that were coming in.
463
00:32:57,767 --> 00:32:59,871
For example,
someone would call...
464
00:32:59,895 --> 00:33:01,372
"Well, I think
my husband did it.
465
00:33:01,396 --> 00:33:02,915
My ex-husband did it.
466
00:33:02,939 --> 00:33:05,668
He's a white "supremist,"
he owns a rifle,
467
00:33:05,692 --> 00:33:08,045
and he drives a white van."
468
00:33:08,069 --> 00:33:13,301
And we'd have these calls
by the hundreds.
469
00:33:13,325 --> 00:33:17,346
And we'd run the record check,
and if things matched,
470
00:33:17,370 --> 00:33:19,348
they went
to the top of the pile,
471
00:33:19,372 --> 00:33:22,393
and they were gonna get
a visit by an investigator.
472
00:33:22,417 --> 00:33:27,648
We were trying to find that
proverbial needle in a haystack
473
00:33:27,672 --> 00:33:29,984
in a field full of haystacks,
474
00:33:30,008 --> 00:33:34,071
and for that matter, it was
three states of haystacks.
475
00:33:34,095 --> 00:33:35,656
[ Telephone ringing ]
476
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,909
-I'm the snipers.
477
00:33:37,933 --> 00:33:39,452
-Excuse me?
480
00:34:01,248 --> 00:34:04,018
-Someone put up a sign...
"No more crazy calls."
481
00:34:04,042 --> 00:34:08,606
And it's like, I kind of got
really upset,
482
00:34:08,630 --> 00:34:11,150
and I said, "Come on.
483
00:34:11,174 --> 00:34:14,820
Who do you think's doing this
besides a crazy person?"
484
00:34:14,844 --> 00:34:17,597
You know, why would we not want
to take crazy calls?
485
00:34:21,017 --> 00:34:25,456
I didn't want us
to miss anything
486
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,876
because if we missed anything,
or if we weren't fast enough,
487
00:34:28,900 --> 00:34:30,544
someone else was gonna die.
502
00:36:47,372 --> 00:36:50,542
-I was a fresh officer,
just out of the academy.
503
00:36:53,711 --> 00:36:57,066
The call went out on the radio
that there'd been a shooting.
505
00:37:20,071 --> 00:37:23,592
They asked me to come
to the Bob Evans parking lot
506
00:37:23,616 --> 00:37:25,845
and to block it off
507
00:37:25,869 --> 00:37:27,763
and to speak to the individuals
508
00:37:27,787 --> 00:37:30,081
who were trying to
exit the scene.
509
00:37:34,335 --> 00:37:37,565
I started speaking to
the drivers and passengers...
510
00:37:37,589 --> 00:37:41,152
If anybody had heard
or seen anything.
511
00:37:41,176 --> 00:37:45,072
And the overall response was no,
just from everybody.
512
00:37:45,096 --> 00:37:51,412
513
00:37:51,436 --> 00:37:54,999
There was a blue Chevy Caprice.
514
00:37:55,023 --> 00:37:57,525
Inside was a black male.
515
00:38:01,404 --> 00:38:04,407
It appeared that the vehicle
was only occupied by the driver.
516
00:38:15,502 --> 00:38:18,772
I interviewed him,
asked him what had happened
517
00:38:18,796 --> 00:38:20,298
and, you know, why he was here.
518
00:38:31,935 --> 00:38:34,747
He stated that he was
on his way home from vacation,
519
00:38:34,771 --> 00:38:36,457
and as he pulled into this area,
520
00:38:36,481 --> 00:38:38,959
he was directed into
this parking lot by the police
521
00:38:38,983 --> 00:38:42,505
and that he was just
trying to get out.
522
00:38:42,529 --> 00:38:49,303
He was very calm, very normal,
and very courteous.
525
00:39:21,442 --> 00:39:23,837
The vehicle did smell.
526
00:39:23,861 --> 00:39:26,048
It was just a mess.
527
00:39:26,072 --> 00:39:33,389
528
00:39:33,413 --> 00:39:37,709
I do remember seeing a sock
stuck in the trunk lid.
532
00:40:19,917 --> 00:40:21,729
-We were looking for a white van
with ladder racks,
533
00:40:21,753 --> 00:40:25,649
driven by a white male
who'd already left the scene.
534
00:40:25,673 --> 00:40:27,901
Didn't write down
any of his information.
535
00:40:27,925 --> 00:40:31,322
I asked him to drive safely
and to move on.
536
00:40:31,346 --> 00:40:38,853
537
00:40:58,498 --> 00:41:04,021
538
00:41:04,045 --> 00:41:09,610
539
00:41:09,634 --> 00:41:12,613
You just feel like
you let the families down.
540
00:41:12,637 --> 00:41:18,017
We had 'em, and, uh,
my mistake...
542
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:28,986
I felt like I let 'em go.
543
00:41:32,073 --> 00:41:34,325
Plain and simple.
544
00:41:36,911 --> 00:41:43,894
545
00:41:43,918 --> 00:41:46,480
-A deadly shooting tonight
at a Sunoco gas station
546
00:41:46,504 --> 00:41:48,816
on Sudley Road in Manassas.
547
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,984
-We're told that one man
is dead.
548
00:41:51,008 --> 00:41:53,737
He was at the pump
at the gas station, shot dead.
549
00:41:53,761 --> 00:41:55,572
-The story is unfolding
as we speak.
550
00:41:55,596 --> 00:41:58,117
Whether it is connected to
the string of eight shootings,
551
00:41:58,141 --> 00:42:00,327
six fatal that we've seen
over a week,
552
00:42:00,351 --> 00:42:02,770
it is still unclear.
553
00:42:26,711 --> 00:42:32,735
554
00:42:32,759 --> 00:42:38,782
555
00:42:38,806 --> 00:42:40,701
-Eight dead now, two injured,
556
00:42:40,725 --> 00:42:42,703
the suspect still on the loose.
557
00:42:42,727 --> 00:42:46,230
-There is growing anxiety
about when he'll strike again.
558
00:42:54,655 --> 00:42:59,035
559
00:43:09,587 --> 00:43:12,232
-They have the most definite,
promising,
560
00:43:12,256 --> 00:43:14,526
concrete leads
that they've had at any point
561
00:43:14,550 --> 00:43:16,445
in this
two-week-old investigation.
562
00:43:16,469 --> 00:43:19,490
An eyewitness who last night
caught a glimpse of the killer
563
00:43:19,514 --> 00:43:22,201
and the gun
that he may be using.
564
00:43:22,225 --> 00:43:25,329
-I knew John.
565
00:43:25,353 --> 00:43:27,605
I knew what he was capable of.
566
00:43:39,951 --> 00:43:47,951
567
00:43:48,084 --> 00:43:56,084
568
00:43:56,175 --> 00:44:04,175
