- IT'S WORKING.
- STOP!

THIS IS THE STORY
OF A TYPICAL AMERICAN FAMILY,

THE MYERS.

MY MOM FINALLY FOUND
HER SOUL MATE.

LIKE MOST FAMILIES,
THEY ENJOY LIFE'S SMALL MOMENTS,

ALL CAPTURED ON THESE
NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN HOME MOVIES--

TIRE-SWINGING IN THE YARD...

NOT HIGH ENOUGH!

...BARBECUES...

FLIP THEM BURGERS, GRANDPA.

...LAZY AFTERNOONS WATCHING TV.

THERE'S MY MOM
OVER THERE.

THEY ALWAYS WANTED
FAMILY AROUND THEM.

THEY LOVED US.
WE LOVED THEM.

BUT ALSO, LIKE MOST
FAMILIES, THEY HAVE SECRETS.

HE'S COMING UP THE STEPS.

QUICK! QUICK!

CLOSE YOUR EYES.
CLOSE YOUR EYES.

IT WAS TERRIBLE.

SOME MONSTER'S OUT THERE THAT
HAS SNUCK INTO PEOPLE'S HOUSE

AND GOING TO KILL THEM.

IT'S A A LOVELY DAY
FOR A WEDDING IN WESTERN OHIO.

TODAY, TWO FAMILIES
ARE BLENDING.

AFTER LIVING TOGETHER
FOR 7 YEARS,

48-YEAR-OLD LINDA THOMPSON

AND 45-YEAR-OLD JACK MYERS

ARE FINALLY MAKING IT OFFICIAL.

MY MOM DID ALL
THE WEDDING DETAILS HERSELF.

NO ONE HELPED HER.

SHE PLANNED IT ALL.

SHE DID IT ALL,
AND SHE DID A GREAT JOB.

IT ISN'T THE FIRST WEDDING
FOR THE BRIDE OR THE GROOM.

WHOO!

Woman #2:
OKAY. CUT IT.

GET A ROOM.

GET A ROOM, GUYS.

THE WEDDING PARTY
IS MOSTLY MADE UP

OF THEIR NOW BLENDED FAMILY.

LINDA'S THREE GROWN DAUGHTERS
ARE BRIDESMAIDS,

INCLUDING KIM HUDELSON.

MY MOM ALWAYS SAID
SHE'D NEVER MARRY AGAIN.

BUT WITH JACK, THERE WAS
JUST SOMETHING ABOUT JACK.

I BELIEVE IT WAS LOVE
AT FIRST SIGHT.

I REALLY DO.

MY MOM FINALLY FOUND
HER SOUL MATE IN JACK.

I'M GETTING OUT OF HERE.
I NEED TO BREATHE.

I NEED A BEER.

THE BLUSHING BRIDE
IS ACTUALLY A GRANDMOTHER.

KIM'S 11-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER
AMBER IS ALSO HERE TO CELEBRATE.

EVEN AS A KID,
IT WAS A VERY FUN WEDDING.

EVERYBODY FROM THE FAMILY WENT.

WE WERE ALL TOGETHER,
AND IT WAS JUST A GOOD TIME.

REPRESENTING THE GROOM'S SIDE

IS JACK'S 18-YEAR-OLD SON GREGG.

AND HE'S BEEN GIVEN
A HUGE RESPONSIBILITY.

JACK AND GREGG WERE VERY CLOSE.

JACK ASKED GREGG TO BE
HIS BEST MAN AT THE WEDDING.

HE WAS THE RING BEARER,
AND HE WAS THE WITNESS

FOR THEIR WEDDING CERTIFICATE.

IT'S A TYPICAL WEDDING...

SHE'S HUNGRY.
I'M STARVED.

...PERHAPS MORE FUN THAN MOST.

EVERYBODY SAW HOW
MUCH THEY LOVED,

AND THEY CARED
ABOUT EACH OTHER.

- DON'T YOU EITHER, GRANNY!
- HEY! GET ON WITH IT.

THIS FOOTAGE, SHOWING
JACK AND LINDA'S FIRST MOMENTS

OF WEDDED BLISS,

HAS NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE
BY ANYONE OUTSIDE THE FAMILY.

BUT FOR THE MYERS' FRIENDS
AND RELATIVES,

IT HAS BECOME
AGONIZING TO WATCH

THANKS TO THE EVENTS
ABOUT TO UNFOLD.

JACK, LINDA, AND JACK'S
SON GREGG LIVE HERE,

ON THIS SPRAWLING HOMESTEAD
OUTSIDE GETTYSBURG, OHIO.

IT'S NOT A WORKING FARM ANYMORE,

THOUGH JACK BREEDS
SHEEP JUST FOR FUN,

AS THIS FOOTAGE,

SHOT BY LINDA'S
GRANDDAUGHTER, AMBER, SHOWS.

HERE'S SOME OF THE SHEEP
AND LAMBS AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

LET'S GET A CLOSE-UP
ON THE BABIES.

AW, SHUT UP.

AREN'T THEY CUTE?

OOH!
MMM.

THEIR NEIGHBORS
ARE NOT CLOSE BY,

SO WHEN JACK AND LINDA'S KIDS
AND SEVEN GRANDKIDS VISIT--

AND THEY OFTEN DO--

THEY CAN MAKE AS MUCH
NOISE AS THEY LIKE.

I AIN'T GOING
UNDER YET.

THAT TOOK ALL
OF MY STRENGTH.

GRANDMA CAN'T
BE HUGGING YOU.

WE ALL WOULD JUST HANG
OUT AND TALK TO EACH OTHER,

GOOF AROUND WHILE
THE ADULTS WERE, YOU KNOW,

MAYBE HAVING A DRINK OR DOING
WHATEVER THEY WERE DOING.

NO.
I WANT TO WATCH YOU COOK.

I MEAN, WE ALL HAD GREAT FAMILY
THINGS THAT WE DID TOGETHER.

FLIP THEM BURGERS, GRANDPA.

WHEN LINDA'S
GRANDDAUGHTER AMBER

IS NOT MAKING HOME MOVIES...

THERE'S GRANDPA JACK.

...SHE LOVES NOTHING MORE

THAN PLAYING ON THE TIRE
SWING WITH JACK'S SON GREGG.

HE'S A GOOD KID.

NOW IT'S HER MOM KIM'S
TURN BEHIND THE CAMERA.

HERE SHE GOES.

HEY, GREGG!
WHAT?

THAT WAY!
WHAT WAY?

THAT WAY!

I THOUGHT YOU
SAID THIS WAY.

NO!
THE OTHER WAY, GREGG.

WHAT OTHER WAY?
THAT WAY.

UH-HUH.
THERE'S GREGG.

GREGG WAS SHY.

YOU HAD TO BRING HIM
OUT OF HIS SHELL, YOU KNOW.

HE DIDN'T LIKE TO TALK MUCH.

WE WERE ALL SO CLOSE
THAT YOU DIDN'T PUT

THAT STEPPARENT
OR STEPSON INTO THINGS.

YOU KNOW, WE WERE
ALL JUST REALLY CLOSE.

NO, YOU CAN'T.

BUT THERE'S ONE FAMILY MEMBER
MISSING FROM THESE HOME VIDEOS.

HE HASN'T BEEN AROUND
THE FARM FOR YEARS,

AND HIS NAME IS
RARELY MENTIONED--

JACK'S OTHER SON, GREGG'S
OLDER BROTHER, TRAVIS MYERS.

I'D MET TRAVIS ONCE,
BUT IT WAS BRIEF.

I REALLY COULDN'T TELL YOU
WHAT HE LOOKED LIKE OR ANYTHING.

WHEN JACK'S MARRIAGE ENDED,

HIS OLDEST SON TRAVIS

CHOSE TO LEAVE THE FARM AND GO
WITH HIS MOM TO ARIZONA.

ANGRY THAT HIS FATHER HAD
OPENED UP THEIR FARMHOUSE

TO A NEW FAMILY,

HE REFUSED TO COME TO JACK
AND LINDA'S WEDDING.

SO TO JACK'S NEW FAMILY,
TRAVIS IS A MYSTERY.

I DON'T KNOW WHY TRAVIS
AND JACK OR MY MOM

DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING
TO DO WITH ONE ANOTHER.

I'M GONNA KICK YOU!

YOU KICK ME,
AND I'LL KICK YOUR BUTT.

JACK AND LINDA
SAVOR THESE MOMENTS

WHEN THEY CAN ENJOY THEIR FAMILY
AND SOME MUCH-NEEDED DOWNTIME.

DON'T PUT ME
IN A TREE.

THEY BOTH WORK LONG HOURS.

LINDA RUNS AN ALL-PURPOSE MARKET
IN NEARBY SHELBY COUNTY,

L J HOUSTON
MARKET AND PIZZA.

IN THE STORE,
YOU COULD GO GET EVERYDAY ITEMS.

THEY ALSO HAD THE PIZZA AREA,
SO YOU CAN ORDER PIZZAS.

UH, GRANDMA,
WE NEED YOUR HELP.

I REMEMBER ONE TIME
WORKING WITH HER.

HEY!

WE GOT INTO, LIKE,
A LITTLE PIZZA FIGHT,

JUST THROWING INGREDIENTS
AT EACH OTHER.

IT WAS JUST CRAZY.

HERE I GO.

SO IS THIS HOW
WE RUN A BUSINESS?

JACK HAD A LOT OF JOBS.

HE WORKED IN THE FACTORY
FIRST SHIFT,

AND THEN HE WOULD GO
AND WORK THE STORE.

HE WAS BOSS MAN.

THE MYERS HAVE
BUILT THE FOUNDATION

OF A WONDERFUL LIFE
TOGETHER ON THE FARM.

OH, THAT'S GRANDMA.
HI, GRANDMA.

THERE WAS NO REASON
TO EVER THINK

THAT ANYTHING BAD
WOULD GO ON THERE.

BUT WITHIN 3 YEARS,
THE CAREFREE WORLD

CAPTURED IN THESE VIDEOS
WILL DISAPPEAR.

A NEW ARRIVAL WILL THROW THE
MYERS HOUSEHOLD INTO A TAILSPIN.

...AND MURDERED
EXECUTION-STYLE.

AND EVENTUALLY,
THE FARM WILL BE THE SITE

OF UNSPEAKABLE HORROR.

WHEN YOU SEE A GREEN DOT
IN THERE, IT'S RECORDING.

WAIT A MINUTE.
I GOT TO ZOOM IT.

HERE ON THEIR RURAL FARMSTEAD
OUTSIDE GETTYSBURG, OHIO,

LINDA AND JACK MYERS

ARE THE ANCHOR
OF A GROWING BLENDED FAMILY,

AS THESE NEVER-BEFORE-BROADCAST
HOME MOVIES SHOW.

ALL RIGHT, GREGG.

BUT FOR JACK'S SON GREGG AND
LINDA'S GRANDDAUGHTER AMBER,

THESE CAREFREE DAYS
OF YOUTH WON'T LAST.

I GET TO PUSH YOU.I DON'T CARE.

BRENDA, DO YOU
WANT THE CAMERA?

AFTER FINISHING HIGH SCHOOL,
JACK'S SON GREGG

WILL START FINDING
HIS OWN WAY INTO THE WORLD.

AS GREGG GOT OLDER,
HE MET HIS WIFE

AND MOVED AWAY FROM THE FARM.

GREGG WILL END UP
LANDING A DECENT JOB

AT A NEARBY AUTO PLANT

AND STARTING A FAMILY
OF HIS OWN.

OH, I KNOW SOMETHING.
I CAN'T SAY ANYTHING.

HE GOT 3 MORE
DAYS OF SCHOOL.

AMBER WILL HAVE A FAR ROUGHER
TRANSITION INTO ADULTHOOD.

AMBER, HONEY,
WHAT IS IT?

MY GRANDMOTHER
WAS WHO YOU WENT TO

WHEN YOU NEEDED
TO TALK TO ANYBODY.

I'M PREGNANT.

HONEY, AMBER,
IT'S ALL RIGHT.

WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT
MY DAUGHTER WAS PREGNANT,

I WANTED TO WRING HER NECK,

BUT THE DAMAGE
WAS ALREADY DONE.

AND WHEN DAMEON CAME ALONG,
HE WAS JUST SO PRECIOUS.

BUT AMBER'S RELATIONSHIP

WITH LITTLE DAMEON'S FATHER

IS NOT DESTINED TO LAST.

SOMETIME LATER, AFTER THAT,
YOU KNOW,

WITH THE ADDED PRESSURES,
WE WERE A YOUNG COUPLE,

WE JUST KIND OF
PARTED OUR WAYS.

AMBER STILL NEEDS TO
FINISH SCHOOL, AND HER MOM, KIM,

DOESN'T HAVE THE ROOM
TO RAISE A BABY.

LUCKILY, THERE'S PLENTY OF SPACE
AND PLENTY OF LOVE

OUT ON THE FARM.

MY MOM AND JACK WERE KIND ENOUGH
TO OFFER THEIR HOME

TO KEEP DAMEON UNTIL AMBER
GOT HER LIFE BACK ON TRACK.

IT WASN'T A HARD DECISION
FOR THEM TO TAKE DAMEON IN.

YOU KNOW, THEY LOVED HIM,

AND THEY LOVED ME ENOUGH
TO HELP ME OUT,

AND SO THEY HELPED ME WITH HIM.

THE FARM USED TO BE
A BUSY HIVE OF CHILDREN

ROMPING THE GROUNDS,

BUT BY 2003,

THE ONLY CHILD LIVING HERE
IS 4-YEAR-OLD DAMEON.

FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER,
DAMEON HAS AGREED

TO SHARE HIS STORY ON CAMERA.

DURING THAT TIME, MY MOM,

SHE WAS KIND OF GOING
THROUGH A ROUGH PATCH.

SO I WAS LIVING
WITH GRANDMA AND GRANDPA

'CAUSE, THEM BEING THE KIND,
LOVING PEOPLE THAT THEY WERE,

THEY TOOK ME IN AND CARED
FOR ME AND EVERYTHING,

AND MOM WOULD
COME AND SEE ME.

WE WERE ALWAYS HAVING FUN,

LAUGHING AND JUST CARRYING
ON AND WHATNOT.

AND I JUST REALLY MISSED HER
WHEN SHE WAS AT WORK

OR TAKING CARE OF THE STUFF
SHE NEEDED TO TAKE CARE OF.

OH, I LOVE YOU
THIS MUCH.

I'M BIGGER THAN YOU.

WHILE JACK AND LINDA ARE ABLE
TO OFFER DAMEON A STABLE HOME,

BY 2003, THINGS AREN'T
GOING SO WELL

FOR JACK'S OWN SON GREGG.

DAMEON, DO ME A FAVOR.

RUN TO THE KITCHEN
AND GRAB YOURSELF A COOKIE.

OKAY?
OKAY.

GREGG WAS GETTING A DIVORCE.

HE WAS LOSING HIS HOUSE.

HE WASN'T GOING TO WORK, AND HE
WAS JUST FALLING ALL APART.

DAD,
I NEED SOME MONEY.

WHAT'S NEW?

GREGG JUST WASN'T DOING
ANYTHING TO GET BETTER

THAT THEY DECIDED THEY WEREN'T
GONNA GIVE HIM NO MORE MONEY.

IT'S BEEN 8 LONG YEARS

SINCE GREGG'S CAREFREE
YOUTH ON THE FARM.

AS FOR AMBER,
THINGS ARE FINALLY LOOKING UP.

WHOA!

SHE'S FINISHED SCHOOL
AND MARRIED A DECENT GUY.

HERE YOU GO.

SOON, SHE'S HOPING

THEY'LL BE ABLE TO GIVE DAMEON
A HOME WITH THEM.

YOU CAN PAINT YOUR ROOM
ANY COLOR YOU WANT.

LET HIM FINISH OUT HIS PRESCHOOL
WHENEVER WE WERE,

YOU KNOW, GETTING ON OUR FEET,

GETTING OUR HOME READY
TO HAVE HIM HOME WITH US.

JUST AS THINGS SEEM
TO BE COMING TOGETHER

FOR THIS EXTENDED FAMILY,

CATASTROPHE STRIKES.

IT'S MARCH 27, 2003,
AND LITTLE DAMEON NEEDS HELP.

THE ONE PLACE HE CAN THINK
OF IS HIS PRESCHOOL

OVER A MILE AWAY FROM THE FARM.

OH, THERE AIN'T
NO SHEEP BACK HERE.

WE GOTS TO GO FIND THE SHEEP.

EIGHT YEARS AFTER THIS IDYLLIC
HOME-MOVIE FOOTAGE WAS SHOT...

THAT'S BETTER
THAN THE OTHER ONE.

...SOMETHING TERRIBLE
HAS HAPPENED

ON JACK AND LINDA MYERS' FARM.

THEIR 4-YEAR-OLD
GRANDSON DAMEON

HAS ARRIVED AT HIS PRESCHOOL
OVER A MILE AWAY ALONE.

WE RECEIVED A 911 CALL
FROM A LOCAL CHURCH.

RECORDS ON THE RESIDENCE
REPORTED THAT

JACK AND LINDA MYERS
LIVED THERE.

OF COURSE,
THERE WAS SOME CONFUSION

AS TO WHAT THIS
4-YEAR-OLD BOY MEANT.

WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT WE HAVE.

WE DON'T KNOW WHAT
WE'RE GETTING INTO.

DETECTIVES MARK
WHITTAKER AND RODNEY BAKER

OF THE DARKE COUNTY SHERIFF'S
OFFICE ARE FIRST AT THE SCENE.

WE'RE ALREADY TALKING
ABOUT HOW QUIET THE HOUSE IS.

THERE'S NO SCREAMING OR YELLING
OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

THIS IS VERY CONCERNING TO US
GIVEN THE CIRCUMSTANCES.

WE NOTICED IMMEDIATELY, FROM
THE VIEW OF THE LIVING ROOM,

THAT THERE WAS A BASEMENT DOOR
STANDING OPEN.

CHECK UPSTAIRS.

BAKER!

THIS CRIME SCENE WAS ONE
OF THE WORST CRIME SCENES

THAT I'VE SEEN IN MY CAREER,

AS FAR AS HOMICIDES GO.

JACK AND LINDA MYERS
LIE IN THEIR BED SIDE BY SIDE,

BOTH BRUTALLY GUNNED DOWN.

LINDA HAS SUFFERED A GUNSHOT
WOUND DIRECTLY TO THE FACE

AND ALSO TO THE HAND.

THE INJURY SUGGESTS
LINDA RAISED HER HAND

TO PROTECT HERSELF
BEFORE BEING SHOT

AT POINT-BLANK RANGE
IN THE FACE.

THERE WAS NO WAY SHE COULD
HAVE SURVIVED THAT INJURY.

IT'S ALSO CLEAR THAT
IT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN JACK

WHO PULLED THE TRIGGER.

I NOTICED HE HAD A WOUND
TO THE BACK OF HIS NECK.

THEY BOTH FELT A LITTLE BIT WARM
TO THE TOUCH,

WHICH TELLS ME
IT HASN'T BEEN DAYS

THAT THEY'VE BEEN DECEASED.

IT'S PROBABLY MORE LIKE HOURS.

THE BLAST RADIUS IS HUGE,

THE SIGNATURE OF A SHOTGUN.

BUT THEY CAN'T FIND
ANY SPENT SHELLS IN THE ROOM,

WHICH MEANS THE SHOOTER
TOOK THE TIME

TO STOP AND PICK THEM UP.

BUT THE KILLER DID LEAVE
A MYSTERIOUS CLUE.

THERE WAS PLASTIC MAROON
OR RED-COLORED DISCS AROUND.

WE SUSPECTED THEY WERE PROBABLY
RELATED TO THE AMMUNITION,

BUT WE DIDN'T KNOW FOR SURE.

THE SHOTGUN SLUGS
WILL LATER BE RECOVERED

FROM THE VICTIMS' PILLOWS.

FORENSICS MIGHT BE ABLE TO
IDENTIFY THE GAUGE OF THE WEAPON

AND BRAND OF AMMUNITION,

BUT THEY WILL HAVE TO WAIT.

THAT'S WHEN DETECTIVE
BAKER SPOTS

SOMETHING OUT OF PLACE
ABOVE JACK'S HEAD.

I NOTICED THERE WAS MASKING TAPE
ON THIS MATERIAL.

I FIGURED
WHOEVER THE KILLER WAS,

WAS TRYING TO MAKE SOME
SORT OF HOMEMADE SILENCER.

HE FIRED AT THE FIRST SHOT,
THE FIRST SHOT BEING JACK MYERS.

IT BLEW OFF THE END.

STILL, THE SHOTGUN
BLASTS MUST HAVE KILLED JACK

AND THEN LINDA INSTANTLY.

THEY DIDN'T EVEN
MAKE IT OUT OF BED.

AND THE THING THAT COMES
TO MY MIND IS THE COLDNESS

AND THE CALLOUSNESS
OF THE PERSON

WHO PERPETRATED THIS CRIME.

WHO COULD DO SUCH
A HORRIFIC THING

TO A COUPLE WHO HAD
SO MUCH LOVE FOR ONE ANOTHER

AND FOR THEIR FAMILY?

LATER THAT DAY, DETECTIVES PAY
A VISIT TO LINDA'S GRANDDAUGHTER

AMBER TO BREAK
THE TERRIBLE NEWS.

HI. AMBER MYERS?YES. WHAT DID I DO?

OH, NOTHING.
CAN WE COME IN?

SURE.

WE EXPLAINED TO THEM THAT
WE WERE DOING AN INVESTIGATION,

THAT WE'D BEEN CALLED TO JACK
AND LINDA'S RESIDENCE.

YES. IT'S--
IT'S MY GRANDMA

AND--
AND HER HUSBAND.

THE DETECTIVES TOLD ME THAT
THEY WERE NO LONGER WITH US,

AND I WAS CONFUSED.

WHERE ARE THEY?

ALL WE CAN SAY IS,
THEY'RE NOT ALIVE.

WHEN I TALKED TO MY MOM
ON THE PHONE,

I BELIEVE SHE HAD TALKED TO ONE
OF THE DETECTIVES ALREADY.

SHE WAS A MESS.

IT WAS TERRIBLE...

TO KNOW THE INJURY
THAT SHE HAD.

I'M SORRY.

I SAID, "AND DAMEON, TOO?"

BECAUSE THE WAY
THAT THEY WORDED IT

MADE ME THINK
MY SON WASN'T HERE, EITHER.

WE REASSURED HER
AT THAT POINT IN TIME

THAT WE ACTUALLY HAD CUSTODY
OF HER 4-YEAR-OLD-CHILD,

THAT HE WAS SAFE
AT THIS POINT IN TIME.

AMBER'S SON DAMEON HAS
BEEN JOINED AT HIS PRESCHOOL...

WHAT'S HIS NAME?

...BY DETECTIVE BURNS.

BEING WHAT AGE I WAS AT,
I WAS SCARED

'CAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW
AT ALL WHAT WAS GOING ON.

FOUR-YEAR-OLD DAMEON

IS THE INVESTIGATORS'
BEST AND ONLY WITNESS.

HE MUST REMAIN WITH OFFICERS
FOR HIS OWN SAFETY.

THIS BOY'S KIND OF OUT
HERE ALL BY HIMSELF.

HE'S BEEN ASKED
TO TALK TO PEOPLE

THAT HE HAS NO CLUE
WHO THEY ARE.

AND I FELT CONNECTED TO HIM.

IT WAS NICE HAVING HIM THERE.

YOU LOOK AT THE POLICE
AS SOMEONE TO PROTECT YOU

AND KEEP YOU SAFE,

SO I JUST FELT REALLY
GOOD BEING AROUND HIM.

SLOWLY BUT SURELY,
DETECTIVE BURNS

GETS LITTLE DAMEON TO EXPLAIN
WHAT HE SAW THAT MORNING.

I LOOKED AT THE CLOCK
AND REALIZED

I WAS LATE FOR SCHOOL,
SO I GO DOWNSTAIRS

TO WAKE UP GRANDMA
AND GRANDPA JACK.

AND I WALKED INTO THEIR ROOM,

AND THE FIRST THING
I SAW WAS GRANDMA,

AND SHE WASN'T MOVING.

I WENT TO TOUCH HER FEET
TO SHAKE HER, TO WAKE HER UP,

AND SHE SEEMED COLD.

I WENT TO LOOK AT HER FACE,
AND THERE WAS BLOOD EVERYWHERE,

AND I COULDN'T REALLY
SEE HER FACE.

HER FACE WAS, LIKE, GONE.

GRANDPA JACK, HE WAS LAYING
RIGHT NEXT TO HER,

AND SO I WENT OVER
TO WAKE HIM UP,

AND I SEEN HE HAD BLOOD
COMING DOWN HIS NOSE,

ON BOTH SIDES, ALL THE WAY DOWN
TO HIS STOMACH.

I WENT TO GET KLEENEXES, AND
I TRIED TO WIPE UP THE BLOOD.

I KNEW SOMETHING
BAD HAD HAPPENED,

'CAUSE NEITHER OF THEM
ARE BREATHING,

AND I WAS OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW
THAT THAT WAS BAD.

AS DETECTIVE BURNS
TRIES TO TALK TO DAMEON...

...BACK AT THE MYERS FARM,

THE CRIME SCENE
IS A HIVE OF ACTIVITY.

WE FINGERPRINTED ALMOST
EVERYTHING WE COULD FIND.

THE FIRST BIG CLUE
IS DISCOVERED OUTSIDE

BY A BASEMENT WINDOW.

THERE WAS SHOE
IMPRESSIONS IN THE MUD

ALL ALONG THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE.

THE FOOTPRINTS STOP
RIGHT AT THE BASEMENT WINDOW.

WHICH WOULD EXPLAIN WHY THE
BASEMENT DOOR WAS FOUND OPEN.

PERHAPS JACK AND LINDA
WERE THE VICTIMS

OF A PARTICULARLY
VIOLENT ROBBERY.

BUT DETECTIVES FIND EVIDENCE
THAT SUGGESTS OTHERWISE.

WE FOUND CASH.

WE FOUND ELECTRONICS,
AND NONE OF IT WAS DISTURBED.

THEFT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE
THE IMMEDIATE MOTIVE HERE.

IT APPEARS THAT THE
DOUBLE HOMICIDE WAS PERSONAL.

AND THEN, UPSTAIRS,

INVESTIGATORS MAKE
A CHILLING DISCOVERY.

DURING OUR INVESTIGATION,
WE HAD FOUND EVIDENCE THAT,

WELL, THERE WAS BLOOD TRANSFER

ON THE 4-YEAR-OLD'S BEDDING.

IT SEEMS THE GUNMAN
ENTERED DAMEON'S ROOM

AFTER THE SHOOTINGS,

SMEARING BLOOD ON HIS SHEETS.

IT RAISES A NEW POSSIBILITY--
DID DAMEON SEE THE KILLER?

NOW, AT THE POLICE STATION,
DETECTIVE BURNS COMES UP

WITH A WAY TO HELP DAMEON
REMEMBER WHAT HE SAW

AND HEARD THAT NIGHT

BEFORE HE FOUND
HIS GRANDPARENTS' BODIES.

THEY HAD LITTLE PUPPETS OF ME
AND GRANDMA AND GRANDPA.

GRANDPA JACK,
WHERE DOES HE GO?

I HAD SHOWED THEM WHAT I DID
AND WHAT HAD HAPPENED.

THIS WAS A NORMAL NIGHT.

I WAS IN BED.
I WAS SLEEPING.

AND WHERE'S DAMEON SLEEPING?IN THE BED.

IN THIS BED OVER HERE.

AND THEN WHAT HAPPENED?

I HEARD THE DOOR CLICK.

AND SO I PEEKED, 'CAUSE I DIDN'T
WANT TO GET CAUGHT BEING UP.

YOU PRETENDED
TO BE ASLEEP.

I FIGURED IT WAS GRANDMA
OR GRANDPA COMING IN

TO TALK TO ME OR SOMETHING.

BUT FOR THIS CHARACTER,
DAMEON DOESN'T USE THE DOLL.

THEN WE ASKED,
"WELL, WHO IS IT?"

"I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T KNOW."

SHOW ME HOW
THEY WALKED IN.

THE GREEN MONSTER.

HE DISCLOSES THEN THAT,
"IT'S THE GREEN MONSTER,

AND HE'S COMING UP THE STEPS.

QUICK! QUICK!
CLOSE YOUR EYES.

CLOSE YOUR EYES.

DON'T LET THE GREEN MONSTER
SEE THAT YOU'RE AWAKE."

I WAS ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED.
I WAS SCARED.

THIS DARK GREEN MASS
OF A MAN POINTED A GUN.

I JUST CLOSED MY EYES,
AND, EVENTUALLY,

I OPENED MY EYES TO PEEK,

AND HE WAS GONE.

IT REGISTERED WITH ME
THAT THIS 4-YEAR-OLD BOY

HAD COME PRETTY
MUCH FACE-TO-FACE

WITH SOMEBODY THAT HAD
JUST KILLED HIS GRANDPARENTS.

IT'S BEEN 7 YEARS
SINCE JACK AND LINDA MYERS

TIED THE KNOT HERE
IN TROY, OHIO.

WHOO-HOO!

THEIR WEDDING WAS
A HUGE EVENT FOR THE COMMUNITY

CELEBRATED BY FRIENDS
AND FAMILY.

BUT NOW, ON MARCH 27, 2003,

THE COUPLE HAVE BEEN FOUND
MURDERED IN THEIR BEDS.

IT IS NOT NORMAL
FOR A TOTAL STRANGER

TO JUST SNEAK INTO
SOMEBODY'S HOUSE OVERNIGHT

AND MURDER SOMEBODY AND WALK OUT
FOR NO APPARENT REASON.

SO THE INVESTIGATION IS GOING
TO START TO CENTER AROUND

THOSE THAT ARE CLOSEST
TO JACK AND LINDA.

DETECTIVES QUESTION
THE ENTIRE MYERS CLAN.

IT'S LINDA'S DAUGHTER KIM
WHO SUGGESTS A POSSIBLE SUSPECT,

A NAME RARELY SPOKEN
IN THE MYERS FAMILY.

IS THERE ANYONE
YOU CAN THINK OF?

TRAVIS.

I THOUGHT THAT TRAVIS
HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT,

BECAUSE I KNEW THAT TRAVIS
DIDN'T GET ALONG WITH JACK.

JACK'S OLDEST SON,
TRAVIS, WAS CONSPICUOUSLY ABSENT

AT HIS FATHER'S
WEDDING TO LINDA.

WHEN WE LOOKED
INTO JACK'S FAMILY,

THERE WAS TRAVIS AND GREGG.

GREGG WAS THE QUIETER
ONE OF THE TWO BOYS,

HADN'T BEEN IN MUCH TROUBLE.

DETECTIVES DISCOVER
THAT TRAVIS, ON THE OTHER HAND,

HAS A CRIMINAL RECORD.

TRAVIS APPEARED TO BE A LOT
MORE AGGRESSIVE ON THINGS

WITH HIS CRIMINAL HISTORY.

BUT BY ALL ACCOUNTS,

TRAVIS HASN'T BEEN
AROUND DARKE COUNTY

IN YEARS

SINCE HE LEFT
WITH HIS MOTHER TO ARIZONA.

SIXTEEN HOURS AFTER THE MURDER
OF JACK AND LINDA MYERS,

THE PRESSURE
STARTS BUILDING

ON DETECTIVE WHITTAKER
AND HIS TEAM.

THE BODIES OF JACK
MYERS AND HIS WIFE LINDA

WERE FOUND MURDERED IN
THIS FARMHOUSE NEAR GETTYSBURG,

BOTH SHOT TO DEATH
EXECUTION-STYLE.

IT'S ALREADY MADE THE NEWS,

AND THE PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY
ARE AFFECTED BY THIS.

THEY THINK SOME MONSTER'S
OUT THERE

THAT HAS SNUCK
INTO PEOPLES' HOUSE

AND GOING TO KILL THEM.

WE DIDN'T KNOW WHO DID IT,

BUT WE KNEW IT HAD
TO BE SOMEBODY CLOSE.

I WAS TERRIFIED.

DETECTIVES NEED TO
TRACK DOWN THEIR LEAD SUSPECT,

JACK'S SON TRAVIS.

THEY'RE HOPING TO GET HELP
FROM HIS NOW 25-YEAR-OLD

YOUNGER BROTHER GREGG.

GREGG?

WHEN WE GOT THERE,
GREGG WAS AT THE HOUSE.

GREGG,
WHO ARE THESE GUYS?

ACTUALLY, HIS BROTHER
TRAVIS WAS THERE, TOO.

COPS.

IT SEEMS THAT TRAVIS,
THE BLACK SHEEP OF THE FAMILY,

HAS RETURNED TO THE FOLD.

IN FACT, HE'S BEEN IN OHIO
FOR SEVERAL WEEKS NOW.

GREGG SEEMED DOWN OR DEPRESSED.

TRAVIS, I CAN'T SAY THERE
WAS REALLY ANY REAL EMOTION

OUT OF TRAVIS
AT THAT POINT IN TIME.

DETECTIVES INVITE BOTH BROTHERS

BACK TO THE STATION
FOR QUESTIONING.

WHILE TRISSEL SITS DOWN
WITH THE PRIME SUSPECT, TRAVIS,

WHITTAKER IS FOLLOWING UP
ON THE CRIME-SCENE EVIDENCE.

ONE OF THE IMPORTANT
THINGS IS WHAT

WAS THE FIREARM THAT WAS USED?
WHAT KIND OF AMMUNITION?

WHAT CALIBER OR GAUGE
ARE WE DEALING WITH?

THE SLUGS RECOVERED
FROM THE MYERS' PILLOW

DELIVER THE ANSWER HE NEEDS.

THE CRIME LAB STEPS UP, AND THEY
CALLED US FAIRLY CONFIDENT

IT WAS FEDERAL BRAND AMMUNITION,

SABOT 12-GAUGE SLUGS.

SO NOW WE NEED TO GO FIND OUT.

WHERE DID THIS COME FROM?

NO AUDIO REMAINS OF THE POLICE
INTERVIEW WITH TRAVIS.

THE VIDEO SHOWS A DESPERATE MAN.

AT THE SAME TIME, NEXT DOOR,
DETECTIVE BURNS ASKS GREGG MYERS

TO TELL HIM WHAT HE CAN
ABOUT HIS BROTHER.

BURNS WANTS TO KNOW MORE ABOUT
TRAVIS' RELATIONSHIP

WITH JACK AND LINDA

STARTING WITH HIS RESPONSE
TO THEIR MURDERS.

WE LEARNED THAT JACK AND TRAVIS
JUST DID NOT GET ALONG AT ALL,

THAT TRAVIS FELT THAT
HIS FATHER HAD CHEATED HIM

OUT OF SOME FINANCIAL GAINS

THROUGH THE FARMING BUSINESS

AND JUST DIDN'T
SETTLE WELL WITH TRAVIS.

NEXT DOOR, TRAVIS
IS STRUGGLING WITH HIS ALIBI.

FOR THE FIRST TIME,
TRAVIS MYERS HAS AGREED

TO SPEAK PUBLICLY
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.

I HAD MY MIND WORKING
AS FAST AS I COULD.

WHEN YOUR ONLY DEFENSE
IS, "I WAS ASLEEP IN BED

WHEN YOU SAY THIS HAPPENED,"

THAT'S NOT THE EASIEST
THING TO PROVE.

THE LAST TIME I'D SEEN JACK
AT THE FARM,

I DEFINITELY FELT LIKE THERE
WAS NO REASON TO EVER GO BACK.

I HAD SETTLED OUT WEST
FOR A LITTLE WHILE,

AND I HAD A SITUATION

WHERE IT WAS TIME
TO REGROUP IN LIFE,

AND I'D DECIDED THAT I HAD
NEVER MET GREGG'S CHILDREN.

I WOULD JUST COME BACK
TO OHIO AND MEET THEM.

MEANWHILE,
DETECTIVE BURNS DECIDES

THAT HE'S GOTTEN
ALL HE NEEDS FROM GREGG.

WE HAD JUST A GENERAL
CONVERSATION ABOUT THINGS

AND WANTED TO KNOW IF,

"HEY, IF I NEEDED MORE,
CAN I COME BACK?

CAN I SPEAK WITH YOU
AT A LATER TIME?"

AND GREGG WAS JUST
PRETTY NONCHALANT.

"OH, YEAH. SURE. THAT'S NOT
A PROBLEM, WHATEVER YOU NEED."

BUT TRAVIS IS GOING NOWHERE.

WHEN THE SHERIFF'S
DEPUTIES QUESTION YOU,

BASICALLY YOU'RE
LOCKED IN SOMETHING

NOT MUCH MORE THAN A CLOSET
WITH A SMALL TABLE AND A CAMERA

AND A DETECTIVE
WHO THINKS AND ACTS

THAT YOU ARE THE DEVIL,

AND HE'S JUST WAITING ON YOU
TO TELL HIM WHY YOU DID THAT.

JUST AS DARKE COUNTY POLICE
THINK THEY'VE GOT THEIR MAN,

TRISSEL RECEIVES THE CALL

THAT WILL TURN
THE CASE ON ITS HEAD.

AND I RECEIVED A CALL
FROM A JOHN HAMILL DOLLAR.

HE BELIEVED HE HAD
SOME INFORMATION FOR US

REFERENCED TO OUR INVESTIGATION.

JOHN HAMILL DOLLAR
IS A FAMILY FRIEND.

HE COMES TO TELL POLICE
ABOUT A TROUBLING CONVERSATION

HE HAD WITH ONE
OF THE BROTHERS.

JACK AND LINDA MYERS' FARMHOUSE

WAS ONCE A RETREAT FOR THEIR
ENTIRE EXTENDED FAMILY.

NOW IT'S THE SCENE OF
A HORRIFIC DOUBLE HOMICIDE.

...BOTH SHOT TO DEATH
EXECUTION-STYLE.

DETECTIVES HAVE BEEN
INTERVIEWING JACK'S TWO SONS.

NOW A NEW WITNESS COMES FORWARD
SAYING HE HEARD

ONE OF THEM MAKING A THREAT.

I HAD ASKED DETECTIVE TRISSEL
AND DETECTIVE BURNS TO DO,

OF COURSE, AN IMMEDIATE
INTERVIEW ON THIS GENTLEMAN

BECAUSE THAT'S PROBABLY THE
BIGGEST LEAD WE HAD SO FAR.

OKAY.

I JUST COULDN'T WRAP MY HEAD
AROUND HIM, OF ALL PEOPLE.

I NEVER SAW HIM BE VIOLENT
OR YELL OR SCREAM

OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

IT WAS VERY SHOCKING.

I WAS JUST CONVINCED
THEY HAD IT WRONG.

MEANWHILE, TRAVIS' MOM AND
GIRLFRIEND CONFIRM HIS ALIBI.

HE WAS MILES AWAY FROM THE SCENE
THE NIGHT OF THE MURDER.

IT IS A LITTLE UPSETTING
THAT PEOPLE POINT THE FINGER.

YOU KNOW, BUT A LOT OF TIMES,
I'LL POINT THE FINGER MYSELF.

YOU KNOW, HAD I NOT BEEN
OPEN AND HONEST

ABOUT I REALLY
DIDN'T CARE FOR JACK, PROBABLY,

I WOULDN'T HAVE HAD FINGERS
POINTED AT ME AS THEY WERE.

WITH THIS STUNNING NEW EVIDENCE,
DETECTIVES BRING GREGG MYERS

DOWN TO THE STATION
FOR ANOTHER,

MORE POINTED, INTERVIEW.

HE SEEMS TO KNOW
HE'S IN TROUBLE.

ALL YOU HAVE
TO DO IS LISTEN.

GREGG AT NO POINT STOOD UP
AND SAID, "I DID NOT DO THIS.

I DID NOT KILL JACK OR LINDA."

ONCE GREGG ASKS FOR A LAWYER,
THE INTERROGATION HAS TO STOP.

DETECTIVE WHITTAKER TRIES
TO BARGAIN WITH GREGG.

IF HE CONFESSES TO THE MURDERS
OF JACK AND LINDA HERE AND NOW,

THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY

WILL NOT PURSUE
THE DEATH PENALTY.

BUT GREGG TURNS THE DEAL
DOWN AND GOES SILENT.

WE WERE UNDER THE GUN.

GREGG MYERS DID THIS.

THE NEXT DAY,
AT THE DETECTIVE BRIEFING,

THAT WAS THE SOURCE
OF CONVERSATION.

I SAID, "WE HAVE GOT
TO FIND EVIDENCE TO DEFINITIVELY

CONNECT GREGG MYERS
TO THIS CRIME."

WITHOUT THAT EVIDENCE,
WITHOUT THAT CONNECTION,

HE WALKS.

THE DETECTIVES
GO THROUGH EVERY INTERVIEW

AND EVERY SHRED OF EVIDENCE,

DESPERATE TO SEE IF
THEY'VE MISSED SOMETHING.

I LOOKED IN GREGG'S WALLET,
AND ONE THING I NOTICED

WAS A WALMART GIFT CARD.

AND AT THIS POINT,
I'M TRYING TO FIND ANYTHING

AT ALL TO LINK GREGG
TO THIS CRIME.

IT'S A LONG SHOT, BUT
WALMART DOES SELL AMMUNITION.

I ASKED THE STORE MANAGER,

"DO YOU SELL FEDERAL
SABOT SLUGS?"

NOT ONLY DO THEY SELL THE SLUGS,

THEY'RE MADE WITH
THE SAME RED PLASTIC

THE DETECTIVES FOUND
AT THE SCENE.

SO THE MANAGER CHECKS THE UPC
NUMBERS ON THE BOX OF SHELLS,

AND THEY SOLD TWO BOXES.

THE SECOND TRANSACTION,
IN MARCH, IT'S A GIFT CARD.

AND THAT PURCHASE WAS
CAUGHT ON SECURITY CAMERAS.

YOU CAN SEE GREGG MYERS
GO TO THE FIREARMS COUNTER

AND PURCHASE A BOX
OF THOSE SHOTGUN SHELLS.

THE GIFT-CARD NUMBER THAT
PURCHASED THOSE SHOTGUN SHELLS

MATCHED THE CARD
IN GREGG'S WALLET.

IT'S A DAMNING
PIECE OF EVIDENCE.

BUT MORE WILL SOON TURN UP
FROM A SEARCH PARTY

CHECKING ALL THE RIVERS

BETWEEN THE MYERS' FARM
AND GREGG'S WORKPLACE.

THERE, ON A SANDBAR IN A SHALLOW
AREA OF THE STILLWATER RIVER,

LOOKS TO BE A 12-GAUGE SHOTGUN.

BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY,
IT HAS TAPE ON THE END OF IT.

THE SAME TAPE USED
TO SECURE THE HOMEMADE SILENCER

RECOVERED AT THE SCENE.

I KNEW WE HAD THE GUN,
AND THAT'S WHAT WE NEEDED.

WE NEEDED THAT GUN.

AND WHEN THE TEAM COMBS THE
SURROUNDING MURKY SHALLOWS,

THEY FIND A TRASH BAG.

INSIDE IS ALL THE PROOF
INVESTIGATORS NEED.

THE THING THAT STUCK OUT AT ME

RIGHT AWAY WAS THE SHOES
WERE IN THERE,

AND THEY WERE TURNED
IN SUCH A FASHION

THAT I COULD SEE THEIR SOLE.

AS SOON AS I SAW IT, I'M LIKE,
"THAT'S THE SHOE PATTERN."

THE BAG ALSO CONTAINS
ITEMS OF GREEN CLOTHING.

AS SOON AS I SAW
THAT GREEN FABRIC,

IT ALL MADE SENSE TO ME.

THAT WHAT THIS BOY IS RELAYING
TO US AT THE AGE OF 4

LOOKED LIKE A GREEN
MONSTER TO HIM.

JUST A TALL, DARK,
GREENISH FIGURE,

JUST KIND OF HAD
A HAUNTING SCARINESS TO HIM.

THERE'S ALSO A PAIR
OF LATEX GLOVES INSIDE

THAT PROVIDE INVESTIGATORS
WITH THE FINAL PROOF THEY NEED.

AND THE CRIME LAB WAS ABLE
TO PULL GREGG MYERS' FINGERPRINT

OUT OF THE INSIDE
OF ONE OF THE GLOVES.

IN APRIL OF 2004, GREGG MYERS
GOES ON TRIAL FOR THE MURDER

OF HIS FATHER JACK

AND STEPMOTHER LINDA MYERS.

HIS MOTIVE-- MONEY.

WITH THE DEATHS OF JACK
AND LINDA,

HE WAS THE ONLY
OTHER NAMED BENEFICIARY

ON HIS FATHER'S WILL.

SNEAKING IN,
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT,

AND THEY NEVER
HEARD A DOOR OPEN.

THEY DIDN'T HEAR
THE WINDOW MOVE.

I THINK IT MAKES YOU REALIZE
HOW VULNERABLE WE ALL ARE

TO SOMEONE, A PREDATOR.

HE JUST GOES IN.

HE PULLS THE TRIGGER,
PUMPS THE SHOTGUN

AND PUTS ANOTHER ROUND IN, AND...

GREGG, NO!

...HE'S LOOKING LINDA
RIGHT IN THE FACE

WHEN HE SHOOTS HER,

I CAN ASSURE YOU OF THAT,

WITH HIS 4-YEAR-OLD NEPHEW UPSTAIRS.

AND IF HE'D DO THIS
TO HIS OWN FAMILY,

WHO ELSE WOULD HE DO IT TO?

GREGG MYERS IS FOUND
GUILTY OF TWO COUNTS

OF AGGRAVATED MURDER

AND SENTENCED TO LIFE IN PRISON

WITHOUT THE POSSIBILITY
OF PAROLE.

TO HEAR A GUILTY VERDICT, IT'S
LIKE BEING HIT BY A MACK TRUCK.

I DON'T KNOW THAT A TRUCK
COULD HAVE HIT ME THAT HARD.

AND, YOU KNOW, IT WAS
THAT KIND OF SITUATION.

SORRY ON THAT ONE.

IT WAS TERRIBLE, AND I HOPE
HE REGRETS IT A LOT.

HE DESERVES TO BE THERE
FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE

FOR TAKING THEM FROM US.

HONESTLY, I JUST HOPE HE ROTS.

I WOULD DESCRIBE GREGG, NOW,
AS A COLD, CALCULATED MONSTER.

THESE HOME MOVIES
ARE NOW BITTERSWEET MEMORIES

FOR THE FAMILY.

NONE OF IT GOES AWAY.

YOU STILL HAVE TO DEAL
WITH THE REALIZATION

THAT THEY AREN'T THERE,

AND SOMETHING HORRIBLE
HAPPENED TO THEM.

I LIKE TO REMEMBER THEM

LIKE HOW WHEN WE WERE ALL
OUT AT THE FARM.

FAMILY GATHERINGS.
CHRISTMASTIME WAS THE BEST TIME,

THE BEST TIME.

EVERY DAY, I THINK
OF THEM EVERY DAY.
