ANNOUNCER: This program is
about unsolved mysteries.
2
00:00:07,407 --> 00:00:09,510
Whenever possible, the
actual family members
3
00:00:09,510 --> 00:00:11,478
and police officials
have participated
4
00:00:11,478 --> 00:00:13,013
in recreating the events.
5
00:00:13,013 --> 00:00:15,315
What you are about to see
is not a news broadcast.

ROBERT STACK: Tonight
on "Unsolved Mysteries,"
8
00:00:23,557 --> 00:00:25,492
the story of newlywed
Shannon Davis
9
00:00:25,492 --> 00:00:27,361
who died in a riding accident.
10
00:00:27,361 --> 00:00:29,563
Shannon's husband had
purchased secret insurance
11
00:00:29,563 --> 00:00:35,068
policies totaling $330,000.
12
00:00:35,068 --> 00:00:40,140
In Oklahoma, Aileen Conway
died in a mysterious car crash.
13
00:00:40,140 --> 00:00:42,376
The highway patrol
ruled it an accident.
14
00:00:42,376 --> 00:00:44,111
Her husband believes
she was murdered.
15
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,384
In 1928, Glen and
Bessie Hyde vanished
16
00:00:50,384 --> 00:00:53,053
on a Grand Canyon River trip.
17
00:00:53,053 --> 00:00:55,789
50 years later, a secret
skeleton was found.
18
00:00:59,059 --> 00:01:02,029
In Concord, California,
housewife Dottie Caylor,
19
00:01:02,029 --> 00:01:05,132
terrified of unfamiliar
places, summoned the courage
20
00:01:05,132 --> 00:01:06,099
to take a train ride.
21
00:01:06,099 --> 00:01:07,701
She has never returned.
22
00:01:32,059 --> 00:01:35,595
Our four mysteries tonight are
connected by common threads--
23
00:01:35,595 --> 00:01:37,764
unexplained
circumstances, deceit,
24
00:01:37,764 --> 00:01:40,467
the suggestion of foul play.
25
00:01:40,467 --> 00:01:44,705
At the heart of each is
a husband and a wife.
26
00:01:44,705 --> 00:01:46,373
These mysteries will
be difficult to solve.
27
00:01:46,373 --> 00:01:49,509
But the stakes are high when
people's lives are involved.
28
00:01:49,509 --> 00:01:51,278
Perhaps you can help.
29
00:01:51,278 --> 00:01:54,214
We've recreated the events of
each story in precise detail,
30
00:01:54,214 --> 00:01:57,851
in the hope that someone,
somewhere, knows the truth.
31
00:01:57,851 --> 00:01:59,319
Join me.
32
00:01:59,319 --> 00:02:01,254
You may be able to
help solve a mystery.
33
00:02:15,869 --> 00:02:20,140
On July 23, 1980, in a small
Michigan farming community,
34
00:02:20,140 --> 00:02:22,743
newlyweds Dave and Shannon
Davis prepared to go
35
00:02:22,743 --> 00:02:24,011
for a sunset horseback ride.
36
00:02:29,583 --> 00:02:31,785
Within an hour,
Shannon was dead.
37
00:02:38,392 --> 00:02:42,396
According to Dave, Shannon
was not an experienced rider.
38
00:02:42,396 --> 00:02:43,997
When they reached the
edge of the woods,
39
00:02:43,997 --> 00:02:46,400
she lost control and
fell off the horse,
40
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,301
striking her head
violently on the ground.
41
00:02:54,408 --> 00:02:56,343
Dave's simple and
plausible story
42
00:02:56,343 --> 00:02:59,680
was immediately accepted by the
couple's family and friends.
43
00:03:03,150 --> 00:03:06,319
I felt that Shannon's
marriage was made in heaven.
44
00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:08,155
I really felt this.
45
00:03:08,155 --> 00:03:10,257
I had began to love David.
46
00:03:10,257 --> 00:03:13,960
I described him probably to
a lot of people as a man's man.
47
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:19,199
He was an outdoor
person, hunting, fishing.
48
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:24,337
He just was very manly
and very likable.
49
00:03:24,337 --> 00:03:26,840
LUCILLE MOHR: And she'd
say, isn't he neat, Mom?
50
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,742
And I thought he was neat.
51
00:03:28,742 --> 00:03:31,845
I thought he would
protect her from anything.
52
00:03:31,845 --> 00:03:36,349
I had no idea of what
he was really like.
53
00:03:36,349 --> 00:03:38,885
ROBERT STACK: After Shannon's
death, Bob and Lucille Mohr
54
00:03:38,885 --> 00:03:40,821
began to discover
that Dave Davis was
55
00:03:40,821 --> 00:03:43,590
not the man he seemed to be.
56
00:03:43,590 --> 00:03:45,959
They began to find clues
in Dave's behavior, which
57
00:03:45,959 --> 00:03:47,394
led them to believe
that their daughter's
58
00:03:47,394 --> 00:03:50,197
death was not an accident.
59
00:03:50,197 --> 00:03:51,998
Dave Davis has now disappeared.
60
00:03:51,998 --> 00:03:54,101
There's a warrant
out for his arrest.
61
00:03:54,101 --> 00:03:55,869
But the Mohrs are afraid
that their son-in-law
62
00:03:55,869 --> 00:04:00,307
may have gotten away
with a perfect crime.
63
00:04:00,307 --> 00:04:03,877
At the hospital, Shannon was
pronounced dead of the injuries
64
00:04:03,877 --> 00:04:04,911
caused by her fall.
65
00:04:07,581 --> 00:04:10,684
Minutes later, Shannon's
parents were surprised and upset
66
00:04:10,684 --> 00:04:13,887
when Dave insisted that their
daughter's body be cremated.
67
00:04:13,887 --> 00:04:16,055
Her request was
to be cremated.
68
00:04:16,055 --> 00:04:18,858
ROBERT MOHR: And I says, can
we take Shannon back to Toledo
69
00:04:18,858 --> 00:04:20,159
for burial?
70
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,761
Please, let's talk
her back to Toledo.
71
00:04:21,761 --> 00:04:22,896
Let's take her home.
72
00:04:22,896 --> 00:04:24,264
DAVE DAVIS: It's
not what she wanted.
73
00:04:24,264 --> 00:04:26,133
ROBERT MOHR: I suppose
our voices were
74
00:04:26,133 --> 00:04:28,401
getting a little
bit loud, because I
75
00:04:28,401 --> 00:04:29,669
don't believe in cremation.
76
00:04:29,669 --> 00:04:32,973
I knew Shannon didn't want that.
77
00:04:32,973 --> 00:04:34,908
This is what she wanted.
78
00:04:34,908 --> 00:04:37,677
I felt so strongly that if
he was going to insist on it,
79
00:04:37,677 --> 00:04:40,013
I was going to go
try and find a judge
80
00:04:40,013 --> 00:04:42,849
and get a temporary
restraining order
81
00:04:42,849 --> 00:04:46,520
to stop him from doing it.
82
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,056
ROBERT STACK: That night,
Lucille couldn't sleep.
83
00:04:50,056 --> 00:04:52,225
She remembered that her
husband Bob had caught Dave
84
00:04:52,225 --> 00:04:54,094
in a lie about life insurance.
85
00:04:56,496 --> 00:04:57,597
LUCILLE MOHR: Bob
says, David, do
86
00:04:57,597 --> 00:04:59,599
you have insurance on Shannon?
87
00:04:59,599 --> 00:05:00,967
He said no.
88
00:05:00,967 --> 00:05:02,602
And it just shot
right through me.
89
00:05:02,602 --> 00:05:04,638
I remembered Shannon coming
home from her honeymoon,
90
00:05:04,638 --> 00:05:06,907
the very next day
saying David took out
91
00:05:06,907 --> 00:05:09,543
a large life insurance on me.
92
00:05:09,543 --> 00:05:10,911
That was the first
lie I picked up.
93
00:05:17,150 --> 00:05:21,021
ROBERT STACK: Three days
later, Shannon was buried.
94
00:05:21,021 --> 00:05:25,692
Bob and Lucille Mohr noticed
that Dave seemed unmoved.
95
00:05:25,692 --> 00:05:28,695
PRIEST: I Bless the body of
Shannon with the holy water.
96
00:05:28,695 --> 00:05:30,831
ROBERT STACK: After the
funeral, Shannon's parents
97
00:05:30,831 --> 00:05:34,167
found out that Dave had
lived a life of deceit.
98
00:05:34,167 --> 00:05:37,938
He bragged that he'd
been wounded in Vietnam.
99
00:05:37,938 --> 00:05:42,309
His own parents said he
was never in the service.
100
00:05:42,309 --> 00:05:44,377
LUCILLE MOHR: All this
was crowding in on me.
101
00:05:44,377 --> 00:05:47,214
And I just-- all I could
think inside is David,
102
00:05:47,214 --> 00:05:50,116
did you kill my daughter?
103
00:05:50,116 --> 00:05:51,851
And it just was there.
104
00:05:51,851 --> 00:05:54,921
I knew that he had
murdered my daughter.
105
00:05:54,921 --> 00:05:57,324
I didn't know what
to do with it.
106
00:05:57,324 --> 00:06:00,427
I felt ashamed.
107
00:06:00,427 --> 00:06:03,463
I just felt like I was
going crazy inside.
108
00:06:06,499 --> 00:06:09,636
ROBERT STACK: Two days after the
burial, six separate insurance
109
00:06:09,636 --> 00:06:13,039
companies contacted the
funeral home, requesting copies
110
00:06:13,039 --> 00:06:16,509
of Shannon's death certificate.
111
00:06:16,509 --> 00:06:23,283
Her death left Dave Davis
the beneficiary of $330,000.
112
00:06:23,283 --> 00:06:26,553
Bob Mohr then discovered that
Dave may have been involved
113
00:06:26,553 --> 00:06:29,889
in other insurance scams.
114
00:06:29,889 --> 00:06:32,058
ROBERT MOHR: He burnt the
farm down across the road.
115
00:06:32,058 --> 00:06:36,563
And he had other fires
and the fake injury
116
00:06:36,563 --> 00:06:39,833
from when he worked for
the automotive company.
117
00:06:39,833 --> 00:06:43,937
So I think he was just out
to live on insurance money.
118
00:06:43,937 --> 00:06:48,141
And he just kept getting
bigger and bigger all the time.
119
00:06:48,141 --> 00:06:49,709
He started out
with a simple fire,
120
00:06:49,709 --> 00:06:51,978
and now he was up to
the point where he was
121
00:06:51,978 --> 00:06:53,513
going to collect big insurance.
122
00:06:56,449 --> 00:06:58,585
ROBERT STACK: At Bob and
Lucille Mohr's insistence,
123
00:06:58,585 --> 00:06:59,819
Shannon's body was exhumed.
124
00:07:02,689 --> 00:07:04,724
The medical examiner
found the injuries
125
00:07:04,724 --> 00:07:09,629
on the body consistent
with a fall from a horse.
126
00:07:09,629 --> 00:07:11,865
Indications of an
unknown drug, however,
127
00:07:11,865 --> 00:07:14,234
were found in Shannon's body.
128
00:07:14,234 --> 00:07:15,935
But the medical
report still ruled
129
00:07:15,935 --> 00:07:20,940
Shannon's death an accident.
130
00:07:20,940 --> 00:07:24,411
Three months later, an article
in the "Detroit Free Press"
131
00:07:24,411 --> 00:07:27,881
exposed Dave's alleged
insurance swindles.
132
00:07:27,881 --> 00:07:29,449
The case was reopened.
133
00:07:29,449 --> 00:07:30,483
And Dave moved to Florida.
134
00:07:34,287 --> 00:07:37,691
Detective Don Brooks was
assigned to the investigation.
135
00:07:37,691 --> 00:07:38,958
DON BROOKS: And the
information that
136
00:07:38,958 --> 00:07:42,562
was contained in that newspaper
article was phenomenal.
137
00:07:42,562 --> 00:07:44,798
I thought if this was
even 50% accurate,
138
00:07:44,798 --> 00:07:45,899
we're onto something here.
139
00:07:48,668 --> 00:07:50,804
ROBERT STACK: Brooks
contacted the toxicologist
140
00:07:50,804 --> 00:07:53,306
who had earlier found
traces of the unknown drug
141
00:07:53,306 --> 00:07:54,941
in Shannon's body.
142
00:07:54,941 --> 00:07:56,309
DR. ROBERT FORNEY,
JR: I explained to him
143
00:07:56,309 --> 00:07:58,478
that we had a very large
number of chemicals
144
00:07:58,478 --> 00:07:59,579
that we were looking at.
145
00:07:59,579 --> 00:08:03,350
There's over 250,000
chemicals in common use.
146
00:08:03,350 --> 00:08:08,054
And we had searched for
and ruled out maybe 1,000.
147
00:08:08,054 --> 00:08:10,457
And I said what I
need is some help.
148
00:08:10,457 --> 00:08:12,559
DON BROOKS: Is that the
metagraph right there?
149
00:08:12,559 --> 00:08:13,693
DR. ROBERT FORNEY,
JR: This is it.
150
00:08:13,693 --> 00:08:14,894
You see the peak is right here.
151
00:08:14,894 --> 00:08:17,263
Can you see how nice
and clean it is?
152
00:08:17,263 --> 00:08:21,267
Because it's so clean, that
means that I think it's a drug.
153
00:08:21,267 --> 00:08:23,336
This is important to the case.
154
00:08:23,336 --> 00:08:25,171
It's got to be, if we can
identify what that is.
155
00:08:25,171 --> 00:08:27,207
He asked me actually
for information
156
00:08:27,207 --> 00:08:28,575
about Davis's background.
157
00:08:28,575 --> 00:08:30,977
One of the things I told him
was that he was a dirt farmer.
158
00:08:30,977 --> 00:08:33,645
And he had some large
animals on a farm.
159
00:08:33,645 --> 00:08:35,447
Dr. Forney and I then
discussed the idea
160
00:08:35,448 --> 00:08:37,784
of contacting veterinarians
in the area that
161
00:08:37,784 --> 00:08:39,753
may have serviced Dave Davis.
162
00:08:39,753 --> 00:08:41,354
DON BROOKS: I'm Don Brooks
for the state police.
163
00:08:41,354 --> 00:08:42,589
I talked to you a
little bit earlier.
164
00:08:42,589 --> 00:08:43,957
That's right, Don.
165
00:08:43,957 --> 00:08:46,126
DON BROOKS: I happened to ask
two or three different vets
166
00:08:46,126 --> 00:08:49,462
in the area if they knew of
any drugs that may affect
167
00:08:49,462 --> 00:08:51,731
the muscular system
or the nervous system
168
00:08:51,731 --> 00:08:53,967
that they would use
on large farm animals.
169
00:08:53,967 --> 00:08:56,536
And when I did so, one of
the veterinarians I talked to
170
00:08:56,536 --> 00:08:59,105
provided me the name of a drug.
171
00:08:59,105 --> 00:09:01,408
ROBERT STACK: Dr.
Forney tested that drug,
172
00:09:01,408 --> 00:09:03,543
an animal tranquilizer.
173
00:09:03,543 --> 00:09:07,380
It matched perfectly the sample
taken from Shannon's body.
174
00:09:07,380 --> 00:09:11,051
Now Brooks needed to connect
the drug to Dave Davis.
175
00:09:11,051 --> 00:09:15,755
We were able to determine that
several years ago, Dave Davis
176
00:09:15,755 --> 00:09:19,492
took part in a deer hunting
camp, at which members
177
00:09:19,492 --> 00:09:22,562
of the camp used this
drug to hunt deer
178
00:09:22,562 --> 00:09:23,496
with, with bow and arrows.
179
00:09:26,866 --> 00:09:30,036
ROBERT STACK: Shannon was
exhumed a second time.
180
00:09:30,036 --> 00:09:33,306
Two injection marks were
found-- one on Shannon's
181
00:09:33,306 --> 00:09:37,777
shoulder, and one on her wrist.
182
00:09:37,777 --> 00:09:42,348
LUCILLE MOHR: Don Brooks
called, and he said bingo.
183
00:09:42,348 --> 00:09:46,686
They found Shannon is
injected with something.
184
00:09:46,686 --> 00:09:49,022
And we're going to move now.
185
00:09:49,022 --> 00:09:51,691
We're going to get him.
186
00:09:51,691 --> 00:09:54,194
ROBERT STACK: On
October 13, 1981,
187
00:09:54,194 --> 00:09:56,062
a grand jury issued
a first degree
188
00:09:56,062 --> 00:09:57,464
murder warrant for Dave Davis.
189
00:10:03,636 --> 00:10:06,739
Detective Brooks believes that
Dave Davis pushed or coaxed
190
00:10:06,739 --> 00:10:10,376
Shannon off her horse,
wrestled her to the ground,
191
00:10:10,376 --> 00:10:15,381
then paralyzed her with
a lethal tranquilizer.
192
00:10:15,381 --> 00:10:18,751
Brooks believes that Dave then
struck her head on a rock,
193
00:10:18,751 --> 00:10:21,387
so that the injuries
would appear accidental.
194
00:10:24,624 --> 00:10:26,993
DON BROOKS: I don't think
there's any question that this
195
00:10:26,993 --> 00:10:29,429
is premeditated murder.
196
00:10:29,429 --> 00:10:32,999
I believe he married
Shannon Davis to kill her
197
00:10:32,999 --> 00:10:35,668
and to profit.
198
00:10:35,668 --> 00:10:37,170
I want to get him.
199
00:10:37,170 --> 00:10:40,106
And I want him
see him locked up.
200
00:10:40,106 --> 00:10:41,708
And I want him to
feel at all times
201
00:10:41,708 --> 00:10:44,711
that we're breathing
right down his back.
202
00:10:44,711 --> 00:10:48,248
Because I will not let go.
203
00:10:48,248 --> 00:10:50,717
That can't bring her back.
204
00:10:50,717 --> 00:10:53,786
But put him, put
him away, before he
205
00:10:53,786 --> 00:10:55,655
does that to some other girl.
206
00:10:55,655 --> 00:10:58,258
And he will, he will.
207
00:11:02,228 --> 00:11:03,563
ROBERT STACK: After
our broadcast,
208
00:11:03,563 --> 00:11:06,366
a viewer recognized Dave Davis
as an acquaintance living
209
00:11:06,366 --> 00:11:10,036
in American Samoa, a small
island in the South Pacific.
210
00:11:10,036 --> 00:11:15,408
Davis was arrested nine
days later by FBI agents.
211
00:11:15,408 --> 00:11:18,077
At the time of his arrest,
Davis was living in this house
212
00:11:18,077 --> 00:11:20,346
with a 20-year-old Samoan wife.
213
00:11:20,346 --> 00:11:25,018
He told her that his first wife
had died in a tragic accident.
214
00:11:25,018 --> 00:11:27,954
3 And 1/2 weeks later, Davis
was returned to Michigan,
215
00:11:27,954 --> 00:11:29,989
to stand trial for murder.
216
00:11:29,989 --> 00:11:32,358
REPORTER: Any comment on the
charges against you Mr. Davis?
217
00:11:32,358 --> 00:11:34,127
I didn't do it.
218
00:11:34,127 --> 00:11:35,895
REPORTER: Police say
your wife was poisoned.
219
00:11:35,895 --> 00:11:36,729
I didn't do it.
220
00:11:39,666 --> 00:11:41,968
ROBERT STACK: After only 2
and 1/2 hours of deliberation,
221
00:11:41,968 --> 00:11:47,807
a Michigan jury convicted Dave
Davis of first degree murder.
222
00:11:47,807 --> 00:11:49,409
For Shannon's
parents, the verdict
223
00:11:49,409 --> 00:11:53,146
brought an end to their
nine-year struggle for justice.
224
00:11:53,146 --> 00:11:54,480
ROBERT MOHR: This is
what we waited for.
225
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,650
And we got what we wanted.
226
00:11:57,650 --> 00:11:59,686
He's going to be locked
up the rest of his life.
227
00:11:59,686 --> 00:12:00,887
That's what we wanted.
228
00:12:00,887 --> 00:12:02,755
But we'll go on the rest
of our life missing her.
229
00:12:02,755 --> 00:12:05,224
That's why I say he gave
us the death penalty.
230
00:12:05,224 --> 00:12:06,292
Now we're giving it to him.
231
00:12:25,645 --> 00:12:27,880
ROBERT STACK: Last September,
we presented the mystery
232
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,818
of George Marsh, a Kansas
City laborer who died alone
233
00:12:31,818 --> 00:12:34,687
in a nursing home in 1982.
234
00:12:34,687 --> 00:12:37,257
He had no known
heirs or relatives.
235
00:12:37,257 --> 00:12:41,594
But he left behind a
legacy of $175,000.
236
00:12:41,594 --> 00:12:43,463
We hoped that someone
watching the broadcast
237
00:12:43,463 --> 00:12:47,600
might have known George
Marsh or his heirs.
238
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,135
There were few clues.
239
00:12:49,135 --> 00:12:51,704
A birth certificate, showing
that George Marsh had changed
240
00:12:51,704 --> 00:12:55,441
his name from Joseph Zelenka
and some family photos,
241
00:12:55,441 --> 00:12:57,677
including this portrait
of a young woman,
242
00:12:57,677 --> 00:13:01,447
inscribed, "Your
loving niece, Eleanor."
243
00:13:01,447 --> 00:13:03,750
ELEANOR TOLAR: When
I looked up and saw
244
00:13:03,750 --> 00:13:10,323
my senior high school picture
on TV, I couldn't believe it.
245
00:13:10,323 --> 00:13:12,925
So then, when they read,
"Your loving niece,
246
00:13:12,925 --> 00:13:19,766
Eleanor," that that's how it
was signed, I was just stunned.
247
00:13:19,766 --> 00:13:22,402
I was just amazed.
248
00:13:22,402 --> 00:13:24,837
And then the very next
picture was Uncle Joe.
249
00:13:24,837 --> 00:13:29,876
And I said, my gosh,
that's Uncle Joe.
250
00:13:29,876 --> 00:13:31,978
ROBERT STACK: This
woman, Eleanor Tolar,
251
00:13:31,978 --> 00:13:35,982
is George Marsh's long-lost
niece in the high school photo.
252
00:13:35,982 --> 00:13:39,018
The Zelenka family lives
in Rock Springs, Wyoming.
253
00:13:39,018 --> 00:13:44,957
Joseph's brother Jim has been
looking for Joe since 1931.
254
00:13:44,957 --> 00:13:48,828
JIM ZELENKA: I would
never know, no idea, why
255
00:13:48,828 --> 00:13:52,031
he kept away from the family.
256
00:13:52,031 --> 00:13:54,500
Because there was
no hard feelings.
257
00:13:54,500 --> 00:14:01,074
We were all united
always, in everything.
258
00:14:01,074 --> 00:14:02,442
ROBERT STACK: The
Zelenkas are currently
259
00:14:02,442 --> 00:14:05,211
waiting for a final judgment
from the public administrator's
260
00:14:05,211 --> 00:14:07,280
office in Kansas City.
261
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:11,751
Jim and Eleanor plan to divide
the $175,000 among Joe's
262
00:14:11,751 --> 00:14:13,519
surviving relatives.
263
00:14:13,519 --> 00:14:17,323
But more importantly, they
want to preserve Joe's memory.
264
00:14:17,323 --> 00:14:20,460
They intend to bring his body
back to the family burial site.
265
00:14:28,568 --> 00:14:30,670
JIM ZELENKA: The money,
it don't mean as much
266
00:14:30,670 --> 00:14:34,207
as finding out where he's at.
267
00:14:34,207 --> 00:14:38,010
I just feel good all over
to know that I located him
268
00:14:38,010 --> 00:14:39,679
and know where he's at.
269
00:14:39,679 --> 00:14:42,181
And I'd be able to bring
his body back to rest
270
00:14:42,181 --> 00:14:43,649
with the rest of his family.
271
00:15:03,336 --> 00:15:05,571
In our next story, we'll
meet a man who returned home
272
00:15:05,571 --> 00:15:08,541
to find his house empty,
the bathtub full of water,
273
00:15:08,541 --> 00:15:11,711
the phone off the hook,
and his wife missing.
274
00:15:26,125 --> 00:15:30,196
April 29, 1986, 10:40 AM.
275
00:15:30,196 --> 00:15:32,799
A farmer in rural
Oklahoma notices
276
00:15:32,799 --> 00:15:36,269
an ominous plume of smoke
rising from a nearby road.
277
00:15:36,269 --> 00:15:37,537
[siren]
278
00:15:37,537 --> 00:15:38,771
He called the authorities.
279
00:15:38,771 --> 00:15:41,774
And 20 minutes later, the
Oklahoma Highway Patrol
280
00:15:41,774 --> 00:15:44,076
arrived at the scene.
281
00:15:44,076 --> 00:15:47,513
They found a burning car
embedded in a deserted bridge.
282
00:15:47,513 --> 00:15:49,248
The heat was so
intense that the car
283
00:15:49,248 --> 00:15:51,818
had actually melted
into the metal guardrail
284
00:15:51,818 --> 00:15:54,987
into which it had crashed.
285
00:15:54,987 --> 00:15:57,290
LARRY SALLEE: When the
highway patrol arrived,
286
00:15:57,290 --> 00:16:00,393
a body was inside
the car at the time.
287
00:16:00,393 --> 00:16:03,262
But it was a futile
exercise whatsoever
288
00:16:03,262 --> 00:16:06,666
to try to get to the
car, due to the car
289
00:16:06,666 --> 00:16:07,800
had already burned so bad.
290
00:16:11,337 --> 00:16:12,538
ROBERT STACK: By
the time the flames
291
00:16:12,538 --> 00:16:14,907
subsided, the body
behind the wheel
292
00:16:14,907 --> 00:16:16,542
was burned beyond recognition.
293
00:16:19,812 --> 00:16:22,481
Skid marks indicated that
the car's speeded impact
294
00:16:22,481 --> 00:16:25,384
was 50 to 60 miles per hour.
295
00:16:25,384 --> 00:16:27,386
To the highway patrol,
it seemed like just
296
00:16:27,386 --> 00:16:28,588
another senseless accident.
297
00:16:31,958 --> 00:16:35,161
A computer check revealed the
car belonged to Pat Conway, who
298
00:16:35,161 --> 00:16:37,330
lived with his family
in Lawton, Oklahoma,
299
00:16:37,330 --> 00:16:40,600
15 miles from the crash site.
300
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,002
The next day, the victim
was identified as Pat's wife
301
00:16:43,002 --> 00:16:47,473
of 33 years, Aileen.
302
00:16:47,473 --> 00:16:49,408
The Oklahoma
Highway Patrol ruled
303
00:16:49,408 --> 00:16:53,246
Aileen Conway's death as a
one-vehicle fatality accident.
304
00:16:53,246 --> 00:16:55,715
Within hours of the
crash, however, a number
305
00:16:55,715 --> 00:16:58,084
of mysterious
discrepancies emerged,
306
00:16:58,084 --> 00:17:00,920
which led Pat Conway to believe
that his wife had in fact
307
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,924
been the victim of foul play.
308
00:17:04,924 --> 00:17:07,827
There is no doubt in
my mind it was murder.
309
00:17:07,827 --> 00:17:10,029
And if I live to
be 100 years old,
310
00:17:10,029 --> 00:17:12,632
I'll still be pushing
to try to find
311
00:17:12,632 --> 00:17:15,268
the individual or
possibly two individuals,
312
00:17:15,268 --> 00:17:16,068
whoever was involved.
313
00:17:22,407 --> 00:17:24,342
ROBERT STACK: Pat
first became suspicious
314
00:17:24,343 --> 00:17:26,779
when he returned home a few
hours after the accident.
315
00:17:31,117 --> 00:17:34,921
The patio door was wide open.
316
00:17:34,921 --> 00:17:37,256
Aileen's purse, which she
always carried with her,
317
00:17:37,256 --> 00:17:39,191
was sitting by an arm chair.
318
00:17:39,191 --> 00:17:41,594
Her driver's license and
glasses were still in it.
319
00:17:44,297 --> 00:17:46,966
An ironing board was set up,
and the iron had been left on.
320
00:17:49,802 --> 00:17:52,338
Water from a garden hose was
running into the backyard
321
00:17:52,338 --> 00:17:53,139
swimming pool.
322
00:17:56,442 --> 00:17:59,011
And most significantly,
in the master bathroom,
323
00:17:59,011 --> 00:18:03,883
at the back of the house, the
tub was still full of water.
324
00:18:03,883 --> 00:18:08,187
And the phone was off the hook.
325
00:18:08,187 --> 00:18:10,690
PAT CONWAY: The thing that
really got my attention was
326
00:18:10,690 --> 00:18:12,825
the phone being off the
hook, as though she had
327
00:18:12,825 --> 00:18:15,428
attempted to make a
phone call, possibly
328
00:18:15,428 --> 00:18:16,329
to the police department.
329
00:18:16,329 --> 00:18:18,431
We have no way of knowing who.
330
00:18:18,431 --> 00:18:20,099
Between me and the
kids, one would
331
00:18:20,099 --> 00:18:22,468
say one thing and one another.
332
00:18:22,468 --> 00:18:23,936
And we started
putting it together,
333
00:18:23,936 --> 00:18:29,075
and right away we find out
there was no accident at all.
334
00:18:32,645 --> 00:18:35,481
ROBERT STACK: Another
disturbing detail nagged at Pat.
335
00:18:35,481 --> 00:18:39,385
What was Aileen doing out
on that lonely country road?
336
00:18:39,385 --> 00:18:41,487
Neither of them had
ever been in the area.
337
00:18:41,487 --> 00:18:43,489
And there was certainly
no reason for Aileen
338
00:18:43,489 --> 00:18:45,625
to be there by herself.
339
00:18:45,625 --> 00:18:49,061
Nothing about his
wife's death made sense.
340
00:18:49,061 --> 00:18:53,899
Pat contacted Ray Anderson of
the district attorney's office.
341
00:18:53,899 --> 00:18:55,101
RAY ANDERSON: The
first impression
342
00:18:55,101 --> 00:18:58,504
that I had of this case,
when I met with Mr Conway,
343
00:18:58,504 --> 00:19:03,275
was that of a spouse that was
left alone and behind, not
344
00:19:03,275 --> 00:19:06,245
expecting the
tragedy that happened
345
00:19:06,245 --> 00:19:09,048
and looking for an excuse
or looking for some reason
346
00:19:09,048 --> 00:19:12,952
why this happened, other than
it just being an accident.
347
00:19:12,952 --> 00:19:15,287
However, when you start
looking at the extenuating
348
00:19:15,287 --> 00:19:17,723
and surrounding circumstances,
the way that she left
349
00:19:17,723 --> 00:19:19,525
her house, then it
leads you to believe
350
00:19:19,525 --> 00:19:22,328
that there is a possibility
that there could be foul play.
351
00:19:27,299 --> 00:19:29,535
Pat, you want to take
that side of the road.
352
00:19:29,535 --> 00:19:30,936
And I'll take this side.
353
00:19:30,936 --> 00:19:34,073
And just look for anything that
might look familiar or unusual.
354
00:19:34,073 --> 00:19:35,508
ROBERT STACK: A few
days later, Pat and Ray
355
00:19:35,508 --> 00:19:39,245
Anderson went to the crash site,
looking for clues, any clue.
356
00:19:49,922 --> 00:19:51,424
Pat, could you come
over here a minute?
357
00:19:51,424 --> 00:19:52,958
ROBERT STACK: 200
feet from the bridge,
358
00:19:52,958 --> 00:19:55,394
they found a church
bulletin in the grass.
359
00:19:55,394 --> 00:19:58,330
This look familiar to you?
360
00:19:58,330 --> 00:20:01,200
PAT CONWAY: Yeah, this is the
church building out of our car
361
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:02,301
from the previous Sunday.
362
00:20:02,301 --> 00:20:04,804
And it was on the day
she was in the car.
363
00:20:04,804 --> 00:20:06,439
Are you sure that's out
of your car, you think?
364
00:20:06,439 --> 00:20:08,874
Yeah, I'm positive.
365
00:20:08,874 --> 00:20:10,776
There's no doubt
that's where it was.
366
00:20:10,776 --> 00:20:12,378
ROBERT STACK:
Aileen always drove
367
00:20:12,378 --> 00:20:16,115
with the windows rolled up and
the air conditioning turned on.
368
00:20:16,115 --> 00:20:18,918
The bulletin could not have
flown out of a moving car.
369
00:20:18,918 --> 00:20:21,721
The car would had to
have been stopped.
370
00:20:21,721 --> 00:20:23,389
RAY ANDERSON: Someone else
may have been with her.
371
00:20:23,389 --> 00:20:25,925
Opened the door,
set the accelerator,
372
00:20:25,925 --> 00:20:29,228
and slammed it into drive,
hoping to run Mrs. Conway off
373
00:20:29,228 --> 00:20:31,297
into the creek,
and make it appear
374
00:20:31,297 --> 00:20:32,164
as though it was an accident.
375
00:20:35,534 --> 00:20:37,736
ROBERT STACK: As a result
of Anderson's investigation,
376
00:20:37,736 --> 00:20:39,505
the Lawton district
attorney changed
377
00:20:39,505 --> 00:20:44,910
the official cause of death
from accidental to unexplained.
378
00:20:44,910 --> 00:20:48,447
The DA then asked the Oklahoma
State Bureau of Investigation
379
00:20:48,447 --> 00:20:50,316
and the state Fire
Marshal to evaluate
380
00:20:50,316 --> 00:20:53,052
the likelihood of arson.
381
00:20:53,052 --> 00:20:55,087
What made me
suspicious at first
382
00:20:55,087 --> 00:20:57,189
was looking at photographs
and seeing how much
383
00:20:57,189 --> 00:20:59,558
burn that was in the vehicle.
384
00:20:59,558 --> 00:21:02,728
This thing was completely
burnt, destroyed.
385
00:21:02,728 --> 00:21:06,398
The burn was similar to that
were gasoline or something
386
00:21:06,398 --> 00:21:08,501
like that was used in.
387
00:21:08,501 --> 00:21:10,569
And another thing that
brought my curiosity up
388
00:21:10,569 --> 00:21:13,172
was the fact that the
gas cap was missing.
389
00:21:13,172 --> 00:21:18,878
And most arson cases-- and this
is documented-- have a vehicle,
390
00:21:18,878 --> 00:21:22,047
the gas cap is removed.
391
00:21:22,047 --> 00:21:25,918
And that was the case here.
392
00:21:25,918 --> 00:21:27,920
ROBERT STACK: Informal
burn tests on dashboard
393
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,891
and upholstery samples from a
car similar to Aileen's suggest
394
00:21:31,891 --> 00:21:37,196
the inside of her car may have
been doused with gasoline.
395
00:21:37,196 --> 00:21:38,998
SONNY SANSOME: We
took the material.
396
00:21:38,998 --> 00:21:42,301
And we applied a blow torch to
it, set the material on fire,
397
00:21:42,301 --> 00:21:44,203
then removed the blow torch.
398
00:21:44,203 --> 00:21:46,572
And the fire went out,
which is consistent with a
399
00:21:46,572 --> 00:21:48,674
flame-retardant type material.
400
00:21:48,674 --> 00:21:51,177
And then we took some gasoline
and soaked the material.
401
00:21:51,177 --> 00:21:53,979
And then, of course, the thing
was completely destroyed.
402
00:21:53,979 --> 00:21:56,282
And the point being without
some type of an accelerant
403
00:21:56,282 --> 00:21:58,817
like gasoline, the fire
would not burn that bad.
404
00:22:02,021 --> 00:22:03,622
ROBERT STACK: If
Aileen Conway was
405
00:22:03,622 --> 00:22:08,294
murdered on a bridge that day,
one question still remains.
406
00:22:08,294 --> 00:22:10,896
Why?
407
00:22:10,896 --> 00:22:13,699
We don't really have an answer
for what put her out there.
408
00:22:13,699 --> 00:22:15,067
A lot of theories
floating around.
409
00:22:15,067 --> 00:22:17,102
Perhaps she
interrupted a burglary.
410
00:22:17,102 --> 00:22:19,538
We backtracked a little
bit into the neighborhood.
411
00:22:19,538 --> 00:22:21,507
And apparently there
had been reports
412
00:22:21,507 --> 00:22:23,475
of burglaries in
the weeks and months
413
00:22:23,475 --> 00:22:25,711
preceding this situation.
414
00:22:25,711 --> 00:22:30,616
So the possibility of an
interrupted burglary is there.
415
00:22:30,616 --> 00:22:32,818
PAT CONWAY: It
had to be robbery.
416
00:22:32,818 --> 00:22:36,088
Whoever came in didn't
know she was here.
417
00:22:36,088 --> 00:22:38,958
And once they found
out she was here,
418
00:22:38,958 --> 00:22:42,861
they didn't want to leave
her to identify them.
419
00:22:42,861 --> 00:22:46,799
So then this makes
murderers out of them.
420
00:22:46,799 --> 00:22:50,369
If this case is solved, it
will be because that there
421
00:22:50,369 --> 00:22:52,037
will be somebody that talks.
422
00:22:52,037 --> 00:22:54,273
There will be
somebody that admits
423
00:22:54,273 --> 00:22:55,875
their involvement in this.
424
00:22:55,875 --> 00:22:57,343
And of course, I'm
a firm believer
425
00:22:57,343 --> 00:23:00,012
that that's what
normally captures
426
00:23:00,012 --> 00:23:02,715
the criminals is their inability
to keep their mouth shut.
427
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,388
ROBERT STACK: No one
knows exactly what
428
00:23:09,388 --> 00:23:12,391
happened to Aileen Conway
on a remote country bridge
429
00:23:12,391 --> 00:23:14,894
in Oklahoma that day.
430
00:23:14,894 --> 00:23:18,664
A year later, Pat Conway is
still searching for answers.
431
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,235
PAT CONWAY: Even though
you're discouraged,
432
00:23:23,235 --> 00:23:26,238
you keep pushing it every day.
433
00:23:26,238 --> 00:23:29,508
You constantly think about it
when you go to bed at night
434
00:23:29,508 --> 00:23:31,143
or get up in the morning.
435
00:23:31,143 --> 00:23:33,345
It's on your mind
the whole time.
436
00:23:33,345 --> 00:23:35,881
That somehow it
needs to be solved.
437
00:23:35,881 --> 00:23:38,584
I'll never quit as far as
trying to solve the case.
438
00:23:46,358 --> 00:23:48,661
ROBERT STACK: Next, the story
of Glen and Bessie Hyde,
439
00:23:48,661 --> 00:23:50,729
who disappeared on
a perilous rafting
440
00:23:50,729 --> 00:23:52,898
trip on the Colorado River.
441
00:23:52,898 --> 00:23:55,034
Both were assumed
lost, until a woman
442
00:23:55,034 --> 00:23:58,404
claiming to be Bessie Hyde
said she murdered her husband.
443
00:24:23,195 --> 00:24:26,465
The Colorado River cuts through
the Grand Canyon, a perilous
444
00:24:26,465 --> 00:24:29,134
stretch of water that was once
considered the most dangerous
445
00:24:29,134 --> 00:24:31,837
in the world.
446
00:24:31,837 --> 00:24:35,274
In 1928, two newlyweds
set out to navigate
447
00:24:35,274 --> 00:24:36,842
these treacherous
whitewater rapids.
448
00:24:39,578 --> 00:24:40,846
They were never seen again.
449
00:24:43,949 --> 00:24:46,919
Emery Kolb, a Grand
Canyon photographer,
450
00:24:46,919 --> 00:24:48,821
was one of the last
people to see them alive.
451
00:24:51,757 --> 00:24:55,027
50 years later, when
Kolb died, authorities
452
00:24:55,027 --> 00:24:58,097
were surprised by a gruesome
discovery in his boathouse
453
00:24:58,097 --> 00:24:59,131
on the rim of the canyon.
454
00:25:06,905 --> 00:25:10,209
Hidden in a canoe was
a single human skeleton
455
00:25:10,209 --> 00:25:13,879
that appeared to have
suffered a violent death.
456
00:25:13,879 --> 00:25:16,014
Whose bones were these?
457
00:25:16,014 --> 00:25:19,518
And how did the victim die?
458
00:25:19,518 --> 00:25:20,753
DR. WALTER BIRKBY:
One good option
459
00:25:20,753 --> 00:25:24,490
would be that the individual
met death by homicide.
460
00:25:24,490 --> 00:25:27,893
A second option
would be suicide.
461
00:25:27,893 --> 00:25:30,763
It would be nice to know
who this individual was.
462
00:25:30,763 --> 00:25:32,898
I mean, somebody is missing.
463
00:25:32,898 --> 00:25:34,233
Somebody was out there.
464
00:25:34,233 --> 00:25:37,936
And there may be friends
or relatives who would very
465
00:25:37,936 --> 00:25:40,272
much like to know who it is.
466
00:25:40,272 --> 00:25:42,141
ROBERT STACK: The disappearance
of the honeymoon couple,
467
00:25:42,141 --> 00:25:44,710
and the discovery of the
human remains in the boathouse
468
00:25:44,710 --> 00:25:48,147
happened almost 50 years apart.
469
00:25:48,147 --> 00:25:51,417
Yet they were connected by an
article in an Idaho newspaper
470
00:25:51,417 --> 00:25:53,919
and by the Arizona
law authorities.
471
00:25:53,919 --> 00:25:55,788
They suggested that
the bones might
472
00:25:55,788 --> 00:26:00,058
be those of the adventurous
young river rafter, Glen Hyde.
473
00:26:00,058 --> 00:26:03,996
Tonight we'll examine these
mysteries of the Grand Canyon.
474
00:26:03,996 --> 00:26:07,166
What happened to Glen Hyde
and his bride, Bessie?
475
00:26:07,166 --> 00:26:09,535
Is their disappearance
connected to the secret
476
00:26:09,535 --> 00:26:10,969
of the bones in the boathouse?
477
00:26:13,705 --> 00:26:15,674
Glen And Bessie Hyde
were married in Twin
478
00:26:15,674 --> 00:26:20,446
Falls, Idaho on April 10, 1928.
479
00:26:20,446 --> 00:26:23,715
Glen was 27, and Bessie
just 18 years old.
480
00:26:28,053 --> 00:26:31,557
That fall, they built a boat for
a special honeymoon adventure,
481
00:26:31,557 --> 00:26:34,460
a trip down the Colorado
River to California,
482
00:26:34,460 --> 00:26:38,130
through the dangerous
Grand Canyon.
483
00:26:38,130 --> 00:26:39,898
Glen was a thrill seeker.
484
00:26:39,898 --> 00:26:43,936
This journey would
mean instant notoriety.
485
00:26:43,936 --> 00:26:45,604
SCOTT THYBONY: Glen wanted
to make a record run
486
00:26:45,604 --> 00:26:47,306
through the Grand Canyon.
487
00:26:47,306 --> 00:26:49,541
He wanted to do it
in a homemade boat.
488
00:26:49,541 --> 00:26:52,744
He wanted to do it with
a new bride, who had
489
00:26:52,744 --> 00:26:54,179
never been on rivers before.
490
00:26:54,179 --> 00:26:56,782
And he wanted to do it
without life jackets.
491
00:26:56,782 --> 00:26:58,183
In the fall of the
year, about six
492
00:26:58,183 --> 00:27:02,387
months after they were married,
they were in Green River, Utah.
493
00:27:02,387 --> 00:27:05,591
An experienced river man at
Green River looked at the boat.
494
00:27:05,591 --> 00:27:07,426
And he thought it looked
to him like a coffin.
495
00:27:07,426 --> 00:27:09,862
It was unlike anything that had
run down the Colorado before.
496
00:27:18,537 --> 00:27:20,772
ROBERT STACK: The
Hydes took 26 days
497
00:27:20,772 --> 00:27:22,608
to get from Utah
to the Bright Angel
498
00:27:22,608 --> 00:27:27,713
Trail in the heart of the
Grand Canyon, a new record.
499
00:27:27,713 --> 00:27:30,349
With the most dangerous
stretch still ahead,
500
00:27:30,349 --> 00:27:33,785
they stopped to see Emery Kolb
who had already twice navigated
501
00:27:33,785 --> 00:27:35,154
the Colorado River rapids.
502
00:27:37,990 --> 00:27:40,325
Kolb had arrived at
the Canyon in 1902
503
00:27:40,325 --> 00:27:43,996
and set about
documenting its grandeur.
504
00:27:43,996 --> 00:27:46,765
His stunning photographs and
immense knowledge of the river
505
00:27:46,765 --> 00:27:48,300
soon made Emery Kolb a legend.
506
00:27:51,336 --> 00:27:55,240
THELMA SELF: He was very
enthusiastic about his river
507
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,743
trips and so proud of them.
508
00:27:57,743 --> 00:28:01,380
Everybody that I know who's
interested in the river at all,
509
00:28:01,380 --> 00:28:03,181
in all the years
I was there, first
510
00:28:03,181 --> 00:28:06,218
came and talked to Emery Kolb.
511
00:28:06,218 --> 00:28:08,687
EMERY KOLB: Frankly, I just
don't think you should go.
512
00:28:08,687 --> 00:28:11,356
No woman has ever
traveled the river from--
513
00:28:11,356 --> 00:28:12,991
ROBERT STACK: When the
Hydes visited Kolb,
514
00:28:12,991 --> 00:28:14,993
Bessie had grown tired
of the river trip.
515
00:28:14,993 --> 00:28:16,428
EMERY KOLB: Now
Especially the idea
516
00:28:16,428 --> 00:28:17,462
of not taking life jackets.
517
00:28:17,462 --> 00:28:18,697
ROBERT STACK: Emery
tried to warn them
518
00:28:18,697 --> 00:28:20,732
of the certain dangers ahead.
519
00:28:20,732 --> 00:28:22,367
He asked them to stay with
him through the winter
520
00:28:22,367 --> 00:28:25,003
and postpone their trip
until the weather improved.
521
00:28:25,003 --> 00:28:26,071
Glen, I just don't think--
522
00:28:26,071 --> 00:28:27,339
ROBERT STACK: He even
offered the couple
523
00:28:27,339 --> 00:28:28,774
his own life jackets.
524
00:28:28,774 --> 00:28:31,443
But Glen refused
all Kolb's offers.
525
00:28:31,443 --> 00:28:32,978
There's really
no reason to fear.
526
00:28:32,978 --> 00:28:34,746
Both Bessie and I are
good strong swimmers.
527
00:28:34,746 --> 00:28:35,647
Come on Bessie.
528
00:28:35,647 --> 00:28:37,249
The light will be fading.
529
00:28:37,249 --> 00:28:40,085
THELMA SELF: Mr Kolb told
me that he tried his best,
530
00:28:40,085 --> 00:28:42,754
every way in the world
to talk him out of going.
531
00:28:42,754 --> 00:28:44,556
He said you have no idea of
what you're getting into.
532
00:28:44,556 --> 00:28:46,525
He said, I've been there,
and I know what it's like.
533
00:28:52,898 --> 00:28:55,200
He begged them to take
life preservers and even
534
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:56,101
inner tubes.
535
00:28:56,101 --> 00:28:58,870
And Glen flat refused.
536
00:28:58,870 --> 00:29:00,806
He said I'm going to
do it without or else.
537
00:29:14,019 --> 00:29:18,690
ROBERT STACK: Two days later,
Glen and Bessie disappeared.
538
00:29:18,690 --> 00:29:20,592
Army aviators flew
into the canyon
539
00:29:20,592 --> 00:29:23,495
and spotted the empty
boat below Diamond Creek.
540
00:29:30,969 --> 00:29:33,472
Emery Kolb was asked
to lead the search
541
00:29:33,472 --> 00:29:36,475
party to find the lost couple.
542
00:29:36,475 --> 00:29:41,513
Surprisingly, when he discovered
the boat, it was undamaged.
543
00:29:41,513 --> 00:29:42,314
Glen!
544
00:29:45,183 --> 00:29:46,985
Bessie!
545
00:29:46,985 --> 00:29:48,186
SCOTT THYBONY: The
boat seemed to be
546
00:29:48,186 --> 00:29:52,457
intact-- the clothes,
food, Glen's rifle
547
00:29:52,457 --> 00:29:56,428
was on board, a camera
with exposed film.
548
00:29:56,428 --> 00:29:57,963
There was a very sketchy diary.
549
00:29:57,963 --> 00:30:02,200
But a diary that Bessie Hyde
had been keeping was on board.
550
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,436
They found everything there
except for the people.
551
00:30:04,436 --> 00:30:05,237
There's no sign of them.
552
00:30:12,411 --> 00:30:14,046
ROBERT STACK: The bodies
of Glen and Bessie Hyde
553
00:30:14,046 --> 00:30:17,249
were never recovered.
554
00:30:17,249 --> 00:30:20,686
50 years later, the discovery
of the bones in Kolb's boathouse
555
00:30:20,686 --> 00:30:23,121
fueled speculation.
556
00:30:23,121 --> 00:30:25,757
Could these be the
remains of Glen Hyde?
557
00:30:25,757 --> 00:30:28,427
And how were they
connected to Emery Kolb?
558
00:30:28,427 --> 00:30:29,361
We'll get them examined.
559
00:30:32,831 --> 00:30:34,466
ROBERT STACK: The authorities
turned the skeleton
560
00:30:34,466 --> 00:30:37,102
over to Dr. Walter
Birkby, an expert
561
00:30:37,102 --> 00:30:41,206
in the science of
identifying human remains.
562
00:30:41,206 --> 00:30:42,474
He discovered that
the bones were
563
00:30:42,474 --> 00:30:47,112
of a male Caucasian,
20 to 23 years of age,
564
00:30:47,112 --> 00:30:51,383
six feet tall with
light brown hair.
565
00:30:51,383 --> 00:30:56,755
Dr. Birkby also discovered a
bullet embedded in the skull.
566
00:30:56,755 --> 00:31:01,126
What we found out from
the bullet that was removed
567
00:31:01,126 --> 00:31:04,663
from the skull was
that not only was
568
00:31:04,663 --> 00:31:07,332
this a 0.32 caliber projectile.
569
00:31:07,332 --> 00:31:11,336
It came from a
revolver that began
570
00:31:11,336 --> 00:31:14,139
manufacturing in about 1902.
571
00:31:14,139 --> 00:31:16,641
2.1 centimeters.
572
00:31:16,641 --> 00:31:18,577
ROBERT STACK: The production
date of the gun and clothing
573
00:31:18,577 --> 00:31:21,346
fragments found with the
skeleton suggest that death
574
00:31:21,346 --> 00:31:25,117
occurred in the 1920s.
575
00:31:25,117 --> 00:31:28,820
During that time, only two
people-- Glen and Bessie Hyde--
576
00:31:28,820 --> 00:31:30,856
are known to have disappeared
in the Grand Canyon.
577
00:31:34,192 --> 00:31:35,660
DR. WALTER BIRKBY:
Somewhere along the line,
578
00:31:35,660 --> 00:31:41,933
I heard a rumor to the effect
that Emery Kolb could have
579
00:31:41,933 --> 00:31:47,205
murdered Glen Hyde, in
order that he could have,
580
00:31:47,205 --> 00:31:49,808
I guess, beautiful Bessie.
581
00:31:49,808 --> 00:31:50,909
It's so preposterous.
582
00:31:50,909 --> 00:31:53,278
And that I just
can't believe it.
583
00:31:53,278 --> 00:31:58,450
That he would off somebody and
then keep the damn body around.
584
00:31:58,450 --> 00:31:59,885
You got verticality
on these mirrors?
585
00:31:59,885 --> 00:32:01,987
ASSISTANT: Yes.
586
00:32:01,987 --> 00:32:03,255
DR. WALTER BIRKBY:
We're going to have
587
00:32:03,255 --> 00:32:05,423
to rotate that more than that.
588
00:32:05,423 --> 00:32:09,427
ROBERT STACK: Dr. Birkby hoped
to put the rumors to rest.
589
00:32:09,427 --> 00:32:12,531
He superimposed a photograph
of Glen over the skull,
590
00:32:12,531 --> 00:32:15,000
to precisely compare
bone structure.
591
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,334
DR. WALTER BIRKBY:
Even more, even more.
592
00:32:16,334 --> 00:32:17,569
ROBERT STACK: This
was the only way
593
00:32:17,569 --> 00:32:20,705
to determine if the skeleton
was indeed Glen Hyde's.
594
00:32:24,442 --> 00:32:28,246
DR. WALTER BIRKBY: The skull
is of a different shape
595
00:32:28,246 --> 00:32:30,615
than the face of Glen Hyde.
596
00:32:30,615 --> 00:32:33,685
The eye orbits themselves
are angled in a different
597
00:32:33,685 --> 00:32:34,953
direction than Glen Hyde's.
598
00:32:34,953 --> 00:32:38,156
The cheeks are wider.
599
00:32:38,156 --> 00:32:40,325
Even the shape of
the chin is wrong.
600
00:32:40,325 --> 00:32:42,928
Glen Hyde's chin was
somewhat rounded, as we
601
00:32:42,928 --> 00:32:44,262
can see on the photograph.
602
00:32:44,262 --> 00:32:47,098
Whereas the chin of
the submitted skull
603
00:32:47,098 --> 00:32:49,301
tends to be fairly squared off.
604
00:32:49,301 --> 00:32:52,671
So those features
alone, do not match.
605
00:32:55,540 --> 00:32:59,344
These remains, these bones that
were submitted for analyses,
606
00:32:59,344 --> 00:33:03,782
are not the remains
of Glen Hyde, period.
607
00:33:03,782 --> 00:33:04,583
End of story.
608
00:33:08,954 --> 00:33:10,655
ROBERT STACK: But the
story, in fact, does go on.
609
00:33:10,655 --> 00:33:13,925
And the mystery deepens.
610
00:33:13,925 --> 00:33:16,628
If the bones do not
belong to Glen Hyde, then
611
00:33:16,628 --> 00:33:18,597
what happened to
Glen and Bessie?
612
00:33:21,633 --> 00:33:23,969
The answer may lie in
the eyewitness reports
613
00:33:23,969 --> 00:33:26,872
that claim Bessie
Hyde is still alive,
614
00:33:26,872 --> 00:33:29,441
and that she was seen
back in the Grand Canyon,
615
00:33:29,441 --> 00:33:32,677
retracing the steps of her
ill-fated honeymoon adventure,
616
00:33:32,677 --> 00:33:36,715
43 years after she disappeared.
617
00:33:36,715 --> 00:33:40,986
In 1971, an unknown woman
took a 20-day rafting trip
618
00:33:40,986 --> 00:33:42,921
through the Canyon.
619
00:33:42,921 --> 00:33:45,390
Geologist George Billingsley
was also in the party.
620
00:33:48,126 --> 00:33:49,961
She was a very serious person.
621
00:33:49,961 --> 00:33:52,530
She was always just
watching the Canyon
622
00:33:52,530 --> 00:33:55,066
and helping out a little bit
around camp, all the time
623
00:33:55,066 --> 00:33:57,068
wanting to do something.
624
00:33:57,068 --> 00:34:00,238
And fairly happy, but quiet.
625
00:34:00,238 --> 00:34:03,141
And pretty much to herself.
626
00:34:03,141 --> 00:34:04,542
ROBERT STACK: Towards
the end of the trip,
627
00:34:04,542 --> 00:34:08,045
they made camp at Diamond Creek.
628
00:34:08,045 --> 00:34:10,080
The same spot where
Glen and Bessie's boat
629
00:34:10,081 --> 00:34:12,117
had been found four
decades earlier.
630
00:34:12,117 --> 00:34:13,618
To this day, we have
no idea what happened.
631
00:34:13,618 --> 00:34:16,353
ROBERT STACK: That evening,
a river guide told the legend
632
00:34:16,353 --> 00:34:17,388
of the missing couple.
633
00:34:17,389 --> 00:34:18,523
WOMAN: I know.
634
00:34:18,523 --> 00:34:20,425
ROBERT STACK: And the
woman matter-of-factly
635
00:34:20,425 --> 00:34:22,226
revealed her true identity.
636
00:34:22,226 --> 00:34:25,362
WOMAN: I'm Bessie Hyde.
637
00:34:25,362 --> 00:34:27,398
GEORGE BILLINGSLEY: She told us
seriously enough, to where we
638
00:34:27,399 --> 00:34:29,199
wasn't sure what else to say.
639
00:34:29,199 --> 00:34:30,334
WOMAN: I killed him.
640
00:34:30,335 --> 00:34:31,168
GEORGE BILLINGSLEY: But
we all figured she was
641
00:34:31,168 --> 00:34:32,202
just making up her own story.
642
00:34:32,203 --> 00:34:33,471
MAN: How?
643
00:34:33,471 --> 00:34:35,607
GEORGE BILLINGSLEY: But
later on, we got to thinking,
644
00:34:35,607 --> 00:34:36,808
maybe she really was Bessie.
645
00:34:36,808 --> 00:34:37,876
Because the age was right.
646
00:34:37,876 --> 00:34:38,976
WOMAN: I got a knife,
and I stabbed him.
647
00:34:38,976 --> 00:34:40,344
GEORGE BILLINGSLEY:
And she never
648
00:34:40,344 --> 00:34:42,813
smiled when she said what she
said, as if she really knew.
649
00:34:46,184 --> 00:34:48,954
WOMAN: It was right around
here we had a bad fight.
650
00:34:48,954 --> 00:34:50,722
And he beat me up.
651
00:34:53,824 --> 00:34:55,059
ROBERT STACK:
According to the woman,
652
00:34:55,060 --> 00:34:57,027
Glen was obsessed with
completing the trip,
653
00:34:57,027 --> 00:34:59,331
no matter how dangerous.
654
00:34:59,331 --> 00:35:00,832
When she tried to
leave, a fight erupted.
655
00:35:17,549 --> 00:35:18,883
SCOTT THYBONY: I
got the full name
656
00:35:18,883 --> 00:35:23,188
of the woman then eventually
contacted her back in Ohio.
657
00:35:23,188 --> 00:35:26,324
But when I asked her about the
Hydes and their disappearance,
658
00:35:26,324 --> 00:35:28,259
she denied everything.
659
00:35:28,259 --> 00:35:31,262
She said she hadn't
told the story.
660
00:35:31,262 --> 00:35:33,565
She said she didn't
know anybody named Hyde.
661
00:35:33,565 --> 00:35:36,534
And she said she
wasn't Bessie Hyde.
662
00:35:36,534 --> 00:35:38,069
My gut feeling though
is that she was.
663
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,075
ROBERT STACK: The mysteries
surrounding this story still
664
00:35:44,075 --> 00:35:45,076
remained unsolved.
665
00:35:48,446 --> 00:35:50,382
If the bones in Emery
Kolb's boathouse
666
00:35:50,382 --> 00:35:53,151
are not Glen Hyde's,
whose are they?
667
00:35:53,151 --> 00:35:55,387
And why did Kolb keep
them hidden in that canoe
668
00:35:55,387 --> 00:35:57,689
for so many years?
669
00:35:57,689 --> 00:36:00,392
The mysteries have
survived the years.
670
00:36:00,392 --> 00:36:04,329
And for now, they remain part of
the legend of the Grand Canyon.
671
00:36:12,303 --> 00:36:14,839
Next, the story of a
woman trapped in her house
672
00:36:14,839 --> 00:36:17,242
by agoraphobia,
the irrational fear
673
00:36:17,242 --> 00:36:19,411
of unknown people and places.
674
00:36:19,411 --> 00:36:20,979
Strangely, she has vanished.
675
00:36:31,823 --> 00:36:34,359
The Bay Area Rapid
Transit system,
676
00:36:34,359 --> 00:36:36,594
known to commuters
as the BART trains,
677
00:36:36,594 --> 00:36:38,997
that link San Francisco
with the East Bay cities.
678
00:36:43,201 --> 00:36:47,272
On June 12, 1985, Jule
Caylor drove his wife Dottie
679
00:36:47,272 --> 00:36:50,442
to the BART station in
Pleasant Hill, California,
680
00:36:50,442 --> 00:36:52,811
18 miles from Oakland.
681
00:36:52,811 --> 00:36:56,347
She entered the station
and purchased a ticket,
682
00:36:56,347 --> 00:36:59,484
a simple task performed
each day by millions.
683
00:36:59,484 --> 00:37:03,121
But this was a test of
courage for Dottie Caylor.
684
00:37:03,121 --> 00:37:07,025
Dottie suffers from agoraphobia,
an irrational, overwhelming
685
00:37:07,025 --> 00:37:11,129
fear of being in public places.
686
00:37:11,129 --> 00:37:13,298
Facing the unknown
and the possibility
687
00:37:13,298 --> 00:37:14,799
of panic shadows every step.
688
00:37:17,969 --> 00:37:20,605
No one knows if Dottie
overcame her fear that day
689
00:37:20,605 --> 00:37:22,974
and actually boarded the train.
690
00:37:22,974 --> 00:37:26,277
What is certain is that
for 2 and 1/2 years,
691
00:37:26,277 --> 00:37:28,480
there's been no trace
of Dottie Caylor.
692
00:37:32,917 --> 00:37:34,919
JULE CAYLOR: After
the first few days,
693
00:37:34,919 --> 00:37:42,627
I thought that she had left
temporarily to-- well, simply
694
00:37:42,627 --> 00:37:46,397
make things inconvenient for me.
695
00:37:46,397 --> 00:37:50,602
I think that Dottie could
have disappeared to get even
696
00:37:50,602 --> 00:37:52,937
with her husband who
had disappeared on her
697
00:37:52,937 --> 00:37:54,906
for half of their married life.
698
00:37:54,906 --> 00:37:56,574
She could have done
that in the beginning.
699
00:37:56,574 --> 00:37:58,977
It's very hard to
imagine her doing
700
00:37:58,977 --> 00:38:03,214
that for a great
long period of time.
701
00:38:03,214 --> 00:38:04,816
ROBERT STACK: Immediately
after she disappeared,
702
00:38:04,816 --> 00:38:08,353
Dottie's friends wondered why a
woman so afraid of the unknown
703
00:38:08,353 --> 00:38:12,157
would leave behind everything
she had and everyone she knew.
704
00:38:15,026 --> 00:38:16,427
At first, they thought
she may have left
705
00:38:16,427 --> 00:38:18,429
to escape an unhappy
marriage and start
706
00:38:18,429 --> 00:38:20,632
a new life in another city.
707
00:38:20,632 --> 00:38:22,133
But as the months
and years elapsed,
708
00:38:22,133 --> 00:38:24,536
there was no word from Dottie.
709
00:38:24,536 --> 00:38:28,039
Holidays, birthdays, and
anniversaries went by.
710
00:38:28,039 --> 00:38:31,242
Now Dottie's friends and family
are wondering could she really
711
00:38:31,242 --> 00:38:33,378
have vanished voluntarily?
712
00:38:33,378 --> 00:38:35,113
Or was her disappearance
more sinister?
713
00:38:37,782 --> 00:38:40,885
In 1973, Dottie
married Jule Caylor,
714
00:38:40,885 --> 00:38:44,789
an entomologist with the
National Forest Service.
715
00:38:44,789 --> 00:38:48,159
They settled in the
Oakland suburb of Concord.
716
00:38:48,159 --> 00:38:53,164
But over the years, her home
became a self-imposed prison.
717
00:38:53,164 --> 00:38:55,466
JULE CAYLOR: Dottie
had what doctors
718
00:38:55,466 --> 00:38:57,535
have called agoraphobia.
719
00:38:57,535 --> 00:39:00,238
She would stay inside
most of the time.
720
00:39:00,238 --> 00:39:04,275
She couldn't even apply for a
job, much less hold one down.
721
00:39:04,275 --> 00:39:05,310
It was a real problem.
722
00:39:09,781 --> 00:39:12,317
ROBERT STACK: Dottie and
Jule's marriage deteriorated.
723
00:39:12,317 --> 00:39:15,153
Dottie was often home alone
because Jule was working out
724
00:39:15,153 --> 00:39:18,756
of town over 50% of the time.
725
00:39:18,756 --> 00:39:21,559
Then in November of
1981, the relationship
726
00:39:21,559 --> 00:39:24,929
erupted in violence.
727
00:39:24,929 --> 00:39:27,398
PAULA POWERS: She told me
that they got in an argument.
728
00:39:27,398 --> 00:39:29,467
It escalated to the point
where he finally hit
729
00:39:29,467 --> 00:39:31,236
her with a board or something.
730
00:39:31,236 --> 00:39:34,739
And she received a
wound in her head.
731
00:39:34,739 --> 00:39:39,010
And that she did grab
some scissors and said,
732
00:39:39,010 --> 00:39:42,880
you keep away from me,
and protected herself.
733
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,351
And she was standing over
top of me with those scissors.
734
00:39:46,351 --> 00:39:49,153
ROBERT STACK: Jule says that
Dottie started the fight.
735
00:39:49,153 --> 00:39:51,890
Swearing at me and
saying I'll kill you,
736
00:39:51,890 --> 00:39:56,261
you son of a-- I'll kill you.
737
00:39:56,261 --> 00:40:02,200
And I grabbed her little typing
stand and hit her with it.
738
00:40:04,902 --> 00:40:06,838
ROBERT STACK: Dottie needed
to pull together the threads
739
00:40:06,838 --> 00:40:08,873
of her disintegrating life.
740
00:40:08,873 --> 00:40:11,476
So in 1984, she
joined a support group
741
00:40:11,476 --> 00:40:13,878
called "Women in Transition."
742
00:40:13,878 --> 00:40:16,080
Without ever telling
Jule, she attended
743
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:19,284
meetings for over a year.
744
00:40:19,284 --> 00:40:20,752
PAULA POWERS: I met
her in the fall.
745
00:40:20,752 --> 00:40:23,521
And of course the last time
I saw her was in late spring.
746
00:40:23,521 --> 00:40:25,456
And I thought she'd
made a tremendous amount
747
00:40:25,456 --> 00:40:27,125
of progress, actually.
748
00:40:27,125 --> 00:40:29,894
As time went on, I would
notice she's adding a little
749
00:40:29,894 --> 00:40:32,063
more color to her outfits.
750
00:40:32,063 --> 00:40:36,067
She is taking a little
more care with her hair.
751
00:40:36,067 --> 00:40:38,136
She cut her hair in
a new style, which
752
00:40:38,136 --> 00:40:40,305
was a very scary thing for her.
753
00:40:40,305 --> 00:40:43,975
It was as if a new
Dottie were emerging.
754
00:40:43,975 --> 00:40:47,812
JULE CAYLOR: She had secret
lives, a secret existence
755
00:40:47,812 --> 00:40:50,481
that I knew nothing about.
756
00:40:50,481 --> 00:40:52,951
And she wanted it that way.
757
00:40:52,951 --> 00:40:54,919
She pursued that.
758
00:40:54,919 --> 00:40:58,623
I only began to become
aware of it near the time
759
00:40:58,623 --> 00:41:00,525
that she disappeared.
I wasn't even aware of it.
760
00:41:00,525 --> 00:41:03,628
I was just suspicious.
761
00:41:03,628 --> 00:41:04,862
ROBERT STACK: Dottie
secretly rented
762
00:41:04,862 --> 00:41:06,731
a post office box
so she could receive
763
00:41:06,731 --> 00:41:10,001
mail without Jule's knowledge.
764
00:41:10,001 --> 00:41:11,769
She opened a
personal bank account
765
00:41:11,769 --> 00:41:15,707
and transferred $5,000
into a cashier's check.
766
00:41:15,707 --> 00:41:18,443
Then one month before
Dottie disappeared,
767
00:41:18,443 --> 00:41:21,646
Jule told her he had to accept a
job transfer to Salt Lake City.
768
00:41:24,782 --> 00:41:26,784
JULE CAYLOR: Dottie
had said in the event
769
00:41:26,784 --> 00:41:29,420
that I got transferred
that she was not
770
00:41:29,420 --> 00:41:31,823
interested in going with me.
771
00:41:31,823 --> 00:41:36,494
So I wasn't expecting
her to go with me
772
00:41:36,494 --> 00:41:41,199
and wouldn't even have
wanted her to, I guess.
773
00:41:41,199 --> 00:41:44,202
ROBERT STACK: According to
Jule, on Wednesday, June 12,
774
00:41:44,202 --> 00:41:46,771
Dottie set off on
an overnight trip.
775
00:41:46,771 --> 00:41:48,973
He drove her to the
Pleasant Hill BART station.
776
00:41:53,711 --> 00:41:57,181
JULE CAYLOR: I took her
down to the BART station.
777
00:42:00,451 --> 00:42:04,188
She had with her a
little overnight bag.
778
00:42:04,188 --> 00:42:06,157
Bye, Jule.
779
00:42:06,157 --> 00:42:09,026
JULE CAYLOR: And
I dropped her off.
780
00:42:09,026 --> 00:42:12,463
And she walked around the corner
of the station and disappeared.
781
00:42:15,566 --> 00:42:18,136
ROBERT STACK: Jule is certain
that Dottie had her purse, as
782
00:42:18,136 --> 00:42:21,172
well as her overnight bag, as
she walked into the station
783
00:42:21,172 --> 00:42:23,241
for the last time.
784
00:42:23,241 --> 00:42:25,843
But he can't be sure that
Dottie ever boarded the train.
785
00:42:34,085 --> 00:42:37,655
The next day around noon, Jule
returned home early from work
786
00:42:37,655 --> 00:42:40,892
and got off the train at
the Concord BART station.
787
00:42:40,892 --> 00:42:43,961
In the parking lot, he was
surprised to find Dottie's
788
00:42:43,961 --> 00:42:47,131
Volkswagen next to his car.
789
00:42:47,131 --> 00:42:50,001
JULE CAYLOR: So I walked
over and looked inside.
790
00:42:50,001 --> 00:42:53,037
And then I noticed her purse.
791
00:42:53,037 --> 00:42:57,408
And that was very, very strange.
792
00:42:57,408 --> 00:42:58,843
SHELLEY WILSON: She
told me how important
793
00:42:58,843 --> 00:43:02,413
it was to her to have her
purse with her all the time.
794
00:43:02,413 --> 00:43:05,383
She felt secure if she felt
she had a lot of her things
795
00:43:05,383 --> 00:43:06,384
with her.
796
00:43:06,384 --> 00:43:08,686
And she felt safe
out in the world.
797
00:43:08,686 --> 00:43:11,255
That's one of the things
that made me feel so terribly
798
00:43:11,255 --> 00:43:13,424
upset, when I
realized that she had
799
00:43:13,424 --> 00:43:16,527
not taken her purse with her.
800
00:43:16,527 --> 00:43:18,262
ROBERT STACK: Jule left
a note on Dottie's car,
801
00:43:18,262 --> 00:43:21,699
asking her to contact him.
802
00:43:21,699 --> 00:43:23,334
Over the next four
days, he left two
803
00:43:23,334 --> 00:43:25,736
more notes, talking
about problems
804
00:43:25,736 --> 00:43:27,839
he was having with the house.
805
00:43:27,839 --> 00:43:33,478
He also expressed his love and
pleaded with her to come home.
806
00:43:33,478 --> 00:43:35,079
SHELLEY WILSON: I spoke to Jule.
807
00:43:35,079 --> 00:43:37,114
And Jule told me
that he hadn't seen
808
00:43:37,114 --> 00:43:41,552
her for three or four days, and
he didn't know where she was.
809
00:43:41,552 --> 00:43:46,257
And that her car was
there, her purse was there,
810
00:43:46,257 --> 00:43:47,859
and he didn't know
where she was.
811
00:43:47,859 --> 00:43:49,293
I was extremely upset.
812
00:43:49,293 --> 00:43:51,295
I asked him if he
called the police.
813
00:43:51,295 --> 00:43:53,331
And he said that he had not.
814
00:43:53,331 --> 00:43:59,003
And this made me very--
just almost hysterical.
815
00:43:59,003 --> 00:44:01,405
ROBERT STACK: Five days
after Dottie vanished,
816
00:44:01,405 --> 00:44:03,741
Jule filed a missing
persons report with the Bay
817
00:44:03,741 --> 00:44:05,910
Area Rapid Transit police.
818
00:44:05,910 --> 00:44:08,412
The following day, the
Concord Police Department
819
00:44:08,412 --> 00:44:11,649
was finally notified of
Dottie's disappearance.
820
00:44:11,649 --> 00:44:16,320
Not by Jule, but
by the BART police.
821
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:20,191
Two weeks after Dottie vanished,
Jule moved to Salt Lake City,
822
00:44:20,191 --> 00:44:21,526
where he still lives and works.
823
00:44:24,295 --> 00:44:27,932
Back in Concord, Diane hired
a private investigator,
824
00:44:27,932 --> 00:44:28,733
Francie Koehler.
825
00:44:31,369 --> 00:44:33,404
FRANCIE KOEHLER: : The status
of the case at this point is we
826
00:44:33,404 --> 00:44:38,042
view it as-- I view it as
10% missing persons case
827
00:44:38,042 --> 00:44:41,946
and 90% potential foul play.
828
00:44:41,946 --> 00:44:43,915
ROBERT STACK: As their attempts
to locate Dottie turned up
829
00:44:43,915 --> 00:44:47,285
no new leads, Diane and
Francie started to worry
830
00:44:47,285 --> 00:44:49,854
that Dottie might be dead.
831
00:44:49,854 --> 00:44:53,057
They began to consider
Jule a suspect.
832
00:44:53,057 --> 00:44:54,458
We don't know
for sure if Dottie
833
00:44:54,458 --> 00:44:55,893
ever got to the BART station.
834
00:44:55,893 --> 00:44:58,262
The only one that has reported
that Dottie went to the BART
835
00:44:58,262 --> 00:44:59,964
station is her husband Jule.
836
00:44:59,964 --> 00:45:02,366
We don't know if
she ever got there.
837
00:45:02,366 --> 00:45:06,137
If this proves to be
anything other than a straight
838
00:45:06,137 --> 00:45:11,542
disappearance case, Jule will be
a suspect in her disappearance
839
00:45:11,542 --> 00:45:13,578
or in her death,
whatever it may be,
840
00:45:13,578 --> 00:45:16,781
along with anybody else that
may have been close to her
841
00:45:16,781 --> 00:45:19,550
at the time or prior
to her disappearance.
842
00:45:19,550 --> 00:45:24,689
You would certainly consider
those around that person
843
00:45:24,689 --> 00:45:27,825
as being possible suspects.
844
00:45:27,825 --> 00:45:30,595
No, that doesn't
bother me at all.
845
00:45:30,595 --> 00:45:39,170
I suspect that she either
willfully disappeared and then
846
00:45:39,170 --> 00:45:42,707
was helped to
permanently disappear
847
00:45:42,707 --> 00:45:53,317
or perhaps just got in
with the wrong person,
848
00:45:53,317 --> 00:45:56,754
right at the start.
849
00:45:56,754 --> 00:45:58,823
ROBERT STACK: 2 And
1/2 years have passed.
850
00:45:58,823 --> 00:46:01,325
And still, no one knows
if Dottie Caylor built
851
00:46:01,325 --> 00:46:05,529
a secret life for herself, to
escape an unhappy marriage,
852
00:46:05,529 --> 00:46:09,400
or if she was simply
the victim of foul play.
853
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,802
DIANE RUSNAK: I think there's
a chance that Dottie is dead,
854
00:46:11,802 --> 00:46:14,805
which is very disturbing
to think about.
855
00:46:14,805 --> 00:46:16,641
I have many dreams about this.
856
00:46:16,641 --> 00:46:18,776
And the authorities I
speak to and the friends
857
00:46:18,776 --> 00:46:21,379
I speak to come up
with hundreds of ideas.
858
00:46:21,379 --> 00:46:22,647
There's no peace.
859
00:46:22,647 --> 00:46:25,650
There's no rest.
860
00:46:25,650 --> 00:46:27,151
There's no conclusion.
861
00:46:27,151 --> 00:46:31,355
And we won't forget her.
862
00:46:31,355 --> 00:46:33,491
It was hell
living with Dottie.
863
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:43,501
It was hell having her
disappear the way that she did.
864
00:46:43,501 --> 00:46:50,074
And yet, since I've gotten
here and gotten settled
865
00:46:50,074 --> 00:46:58,315
and into a new job and that
whole problem is behind me,
866
00:46:58,315 --> 00:46:59,750
things are really pretty good.
867
00:47:11,262 --> 00:47:14,065
Tonight's mysteries are
stories without endings,
868
00:47:14,065 --> 00:47:16,734
all missing that one vital clue.
869
00:47:16,734 --> 00:47:19,136
Perhaps someone watching
tonight knows what happened
870
00:47:19,136 --> 00:47:21,372
and can reveal the truth.
871
00:47:21,372 --> 00:47:23,341
Perhaps it's you.
