1
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:11,160
(Sirens wailing)

2
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,280
Sydney: Tinder, I
met her on tinder.

3
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,020
I told you about those
sites, aren't you scared?

4
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,960
Narrator: Sydney loofe, 24,

5
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,180
a cashier at menards
home improvement store

6
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:28,480
in north Lincoln, Nebraska.

7
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,880
Sydney swiped right and matched
with a woman named Audrey.

8
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:34,480
For the next three days,

9
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,840
Sydney texted 140 messages
in her tinder app with Audrey

10
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,240
in anticipation of
a possible hook-up.

11
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,280
Sydney's recent romantic
reports posted online

12
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,080
reflected her loneliness
and longing for love.

13
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,300
As a 24-year-old
looking for love online,

14
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,020
Sydney was doing what her
generation does to meet people,

15
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,200
this way of meeting is a
standard in today's dating scene.

16
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:56,640
There is nothing weird about it.

17
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,640
People are an open book online.

18
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,000
They chat with strangers.

19
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:00,040
They chat with strangers.

20
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,120
But from a public
safety perspective

21
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,400
this can be a very daunting
and challenging task.

22
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,920
People, in general, have no
idea how far their reach is online.

23
00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:11,180
The amount of people who
have exposure to their lives,

24
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:12,880
locations and places of work.

25
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:14,360
It's important to know

26
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,860
that once you agree to
the terms and conditions,

27
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,960
it's up to you the user to
discern what is safe or a risk.

28
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,400
And in this case,
Sydney loofe agreed.

29
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:28,320
So, she was all-in on going
out with a complete stranger.

30
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,200
The attraction between
Sydney and Audrey was strong,

31
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,680
including a mutual love for
smoking marijuana and sex.

32
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:36,700
Sydney suffered from
bouts of depression.

33
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,860
So, naturally, the
exchange with Audrey

34
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,460
could have been a real
boost for her self-confidence.

35
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,920
Sydney's family was very concerned
about her chronic marijuana use,

36
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:46,120
and missing days at work.

37
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,340
She had family and
friends who did love her,

38
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,040
but she needed a lot
of external validation,

39
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:52,640
or she knew who she was

40
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,040
and that she had self-worth.

41
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,640
Sydney and Audrey
spoke via tinder messaging.

42
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:00,000
Audrey pressed
Sydney for a date.

43
00:02:00,001 --> 00:02:01,401
Audrey pressed
Sydney for a date.

44
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,100
Sydney was reluctant
to give up her address

45
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,600
and then she asked a
very important question.

46
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:43,320
♪ I'm a bad girl
I'm a bad girl... ♪

47
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,660
They drove through
Lincoln, Nebraska for hours,

48
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,660
getting high and getting
to know each other.

49
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,000
♪ I'm a bad girl I'm a bad girl

50
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,120
♪ I'm a bad girl... ♪

51
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:53,160
Cell phone data indicates

52
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,800
that Sydney and Audrey
spent several hours together

53
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,200
at various locations.

54
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:03,680
Audrey: What's this?

55
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:05,880
My tattoo.

56
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:10,240
"Everything will be
wonderful someday, it will be."

57
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:11,280
Yeah.

58
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,800
Do you want to take a
photo? No, no, I don't.

59
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:15,440
Don't do it.

60
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,300
Why not? I just
don't like photos.

61
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:19,320
Ok.

62
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,120
Just, I just want to
have a moment with you.

63
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,720
Ok, sorry. Audrey: It's ok.

64
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:29,800
Yeah.

65
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,080
Is that ok?

66
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,080
The date by all accounts
seemed to genuinely go well.

67
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,040
Sydney sends her friend
Brooklyn mccrystal a screenshot

68
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:41,680
of Audrey's tinder profile,

69
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,880
and details of their great date.

70
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,160
Sydney protected herself

71
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,140
by letting her friend
know what she was doing,

72
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,440
and who she was with.

73
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,240
She had a lot of messages
and phone records,

74
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,680
it all seemed very
legitimate with Audrey.

75
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,840
Sydney gets a text message at
12:53pm from Audrey the next day

76
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,000
during her break at lunch.

77
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,040
During her break at lunch.

78
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,200
Audrey wants to hook up again.

79
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:09,600
Phone records indicate

80
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,620
that the text message
for the second date

81
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,560
came from the parking lot at
menards home improvement.

82
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,280
Audrey finished texting Sydney

83
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:21,280
and got into a car with an
unidentified, much-older man.

84
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,080
The last message between
Sydney and Audrey was here,

85
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,760
Audrey texted Sydney outside
of her apartment at 6:54pm.

86
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,120
This was the last transmission
from Sydney's cellphone.

87
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,420
Sydney loofe went on
a date with a stranger

88
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,580
and never made it to
work the next morning.

89
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,480
She was reported missing
on 16 November 2017.

90
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,760
The Lincoln police department
reacted fast to gather information.

91
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,000
Sydney went missing on
the evening of 16 November.

92
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,240
On 17 November,

93
00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:56,160
Sydney's mother contacted
the Lincoln police department,

94
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,300
and then shortly after that,

95
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,000
it was determined
that she was missing.

96
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:00,240
It was determined
that she was missing.

97
00:05:00,280 --> 00:05:03,040
Sydney informs several people
that she was going on a date,

98
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,380
as well as posting
about it on Snapchat.

99
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,320
In looking at Sydney's
lonely online life,

100
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,700
she posted often about
being attracted to women,

101
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,860
needing support,
and being lonely.

102
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:13,920
It was all out there

103
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,360
for people to see
and take advantage of.

104
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,360
Sydney was a hopeless romantic,

105
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,260
one look at her
public Twitter profile

106
00:05:20,280 --> 00:05:21,880
portrayed Sydney as lonely.

107
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,160
She texts me and told me
about the date she had been on,

108
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,880
the night before with this girl.

109
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,080
The most troubling fact

110
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,200
was that Sydney's phone was
no longer transmitting a signal,

111
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,600
and there was zero communication
from Sydney since her date.

112
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,940
Clearly, finding out
who her date was,

113
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,320
was key to finding Sydney.

114
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,480
We are still seeking any and
all information from anybody

115
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,920
regarding the knowledge
of where Sydney could be,

116
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,960
and ask for their assistance.

117
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,840
Sydney loofe was
a missing person.

118
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,120
The Lincoln police department
needed to get data from social media

119
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,200
or her cell phone provider.

120
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,000
The first 48 hours
are absolutely critical.

121
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,900
The first 48 hours
are absolutely critical.

122
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,060
The Lincoln police
department acted quickly.

123
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,840
According to Sydney's phone,

124
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:12,520
the last ping to a cell tower was
at 8:31pm on 15 November 2017,

125
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,000
in wilber, Nebraska.

126
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,840
Searches engage
and saline counties

127
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,400
turned up no new evidence,

128
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,360
but authorities
continued to insist

129
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,160
that there was hope
in finding Sydney loofe.

130
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,540
The loofe family,
who are very private

131
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,500
and really do not
speak with the media,

132
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,560
stepped forward to alert the public
that Sydney was in fact missing.

133
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,600
In my opinion, someone
knows something.

134
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,320
Please, please
do the right thing.

135
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,200
The loofe family issued a poster

136
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,760
displaying Sydney's
distinctive tattoos.

137
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,160
Including a tattoo that read:

138
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,760
Or Sydney's family very
desperate to find her.

139
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,180
Woman: They've been
doing what they can,

140
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:50,920
but they're asking
for your help.

141
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,200
Sydney's tinder
date was a mystery,

142
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,040
and the local
community was tense.

143
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,240
I heard from her family,

144
00:06:58,280 --> 00:07:00,000
our whole community is really,

145
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:00,400
our whole community is really,

146
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,120
they've come together
so well through all of this.

147
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,640
Brittney: Sydney is a
beautiful young responsible girl,

148
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,340
and she has a lot of family
that loves and cares about her

149
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,620
and we just need her
home because we miss her.

150
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,880
Rumours began to spread
about persons of interest.

151
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,000
A woman, possibly
Sydney's tinder date

152
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:19,400
and a mystery man.

153
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,520
Where was Sydney loofe?

154
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,920
The investigation team suspected
Sydney's female tinder date

155
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,120
and a male accomplice,

156
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,880
but they were running into
dead ends trying to find them.

157
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,320
Sydney's friends, brittney
and Brooklyn, wanted to help.

158
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,240
The girls set up a
phoney tinder profile,

159
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:42,240
as they knew Audrey's profile
from Sydney texting it to brittney.

160
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,720
Brooklyn matched with Audrey
and asked for her phone number.

161
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,800
And Audrey actually
gave Brooklyn her number.

162
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,240
Brooklyn gave Audrey's phone
number to the Lincoln police department.

163
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,000
Investigators now had their
lead suspect's phone number,

164
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:00,200
investigators now had their
lead suspect's phone number,

165
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,760
which meant they could
now track their location.

166
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,960
We believe that Aubrey
trail and Bailey boswell

167
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,400
were two of the last people to
have known to been with Sydney

168
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,320
prior to her disappearance.

169
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,520
The investigation's lead suspect
Aubrey trail and Bailey boswell

170
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,360
were tracked down to a
motel not far from Lincoln.

171
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,480
But investigators
arrived too late

172
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,820
and the suspects had
already fled the hotel.

173
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,240
The FBI just missed
them at a local hotel

174
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,320
were they left
behind four sex toys

175
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:33,240
and maps of Iowa and the
texas/mexico border area.

176
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,640
Giving them possible places
their suspects might be heading.

177
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,000
As the mystery, unravelled
surveillance footage from the motel

178
00:08:42,039 --> 00:08:44,159
revealed a third female suspect.

179
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,360
Law enforcement was on the
trail of two women and one man

180
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,880
who may know the
whereabouts of Sydney loofe.

181
00:08:52,560 --> 00:08:55,260
Law enforcement prepared to
release the surveillance footage

182
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,280
to the public.

183
00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,000
When suddenly the persons
of interest beat them to it.

184
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:00,400
When suddenly the persons
of interest beat them to it.

185
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:05,360
Man: Good morning Lincoln and
Omaha and probably several other places.

186
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,200
This is Aubrey trail and
this is Bailey boswell,

187
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,920
I guess you also
know her as Audrey.

188
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,920
The video was uploaded to
the loofe family Facebook page

189
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,920
called finding Sydney loofe.

190
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,280
This is 'Batman
villain' level stuff,

191
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,640
normal people don't proclaim
innocence on social media,

192
00:09:23,680 --> 00:09:25,040
they turn themselves in.

193
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:29,600
I'm Bailey, Audrey on
tinder and a few other names

194
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,120
because I have warrants,

195
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,080
but this really isn't about me,

196
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,840
this is about Sydney.

197
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,440
I met her on a Tuesday,
we drove around Lincoln,

198
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,160
smoked weed,

199
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,280
I went to take her home

200
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,160
and she asked me to drop
her off at a friend's house,

201
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,080
so, I have not
heard from her since.

202
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,000
I just,

203
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,600
I guess I just want the family
to know that I'm truly sorry

204
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,000
and I didn't have
anything to do with this.

205
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:00,280
And I didn't have
anything to do with this.

206
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,040
And I hope that Sydney
is found very soon,

207
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,640
she is a sweet amazing girl,

208
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:08,840
I don't know,

209
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,240
babe, do you have
anything else to say?

210
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,240
But as far as I'm concerned

211
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,120
what they chasing
us around like dogs.

212
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,840
I wish the family the best.

213
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,200
I wish Sydney the best.

214
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,720
But as far as the police
department, (bleep) You.

215
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,480
Reporter: Now two weeks since
the 24-year-old's disappearance,

216
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:29,580
Lincoln's police chief saying

217
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,760
there's absolutely still
hope that Sydney is alive.

218
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,520
We believe Aubrey
trail and Bailey boswell

219
00:10:35,560 --> 00:10:39,320
were two of the last people to
have known to been with Sydney

220
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,200
prior to her disappearance.

221
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,120
With the help of Sydney's family

222
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:44,720
and tips from the
local community...

223
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,560
Recent information that we
have received from the public

224
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,920
has really helped our
investigation tremendously.

225
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,560
At 6am on 30 November 2017.

226
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,560
Aubrey trail and Bailey
boswell aka Audrey,

227
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:00,000
were arrested in
Branson, Missouri.

228
00:11:00,001 --> 00:11:01,981
Were arrested in
Branson, Missouri.

229
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,200
Aubrey trail and Bailey
boswell were arrested

230
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,040
for outstanding warrants
for fraud and scams,

231
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:12,920
that conned people of more than
$400,000 of antiques and coins.

232
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,560
The pair are now
in police custody,

233
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,980
reportedly being held on a
federal person of interest warrant,

234
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,880
in the disappearance of Sydney.

235
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,380
Bailey's cellphone
data was turned over

236
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,960
to Lincoln police
detector, Robert Hurley.

237
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,640
Hurley, a former police
accident reconstructionist

238
00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:30,720
who would attempt reconstruct
where the pair had driven to,

239
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,760
to ultimately find,
Sydney's whereabouts.

240
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,480
Sydney's phone number was
pinged to the wilber apartment location

241
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,440
on 15 November 2017, at 8:31pm.

242
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,920
So, basically a cell phone
tower can locate cell phone data

243
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,200
and by doing what
is called a ping

244
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,820
you can locate the last time that
cell phone data was last accessed,

245
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,420
and now that the
Lincoln police department

246
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:57,600
had Audrey's phone number,

247
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,340
they could get cell
phone tower info.

248
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:00,000
Capture the information
from the cell towers

249
00:12:00,001 --> 00:12:01,541
capture the information
from the cell towers

250
00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:04,920
and use it to triangulate
and locate the last position.

251
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:06,720
The last ping that accord.

252
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,600
A search warrant was issued

253
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,920
for the wilber apartment of
Aubrey trail and Bailey boswell.

254
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,160
Upon arriving at the wilber
apartment to collect evidence,

255
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,960
the landlord, Alan
koll and his family

256
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,640
reveal unusual activity

257
00:12:19,680 --> 00:12:21,620
on the night of the
Sydney's disappearance.

258
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,880
So, yeah, here's where I was,

259
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,640
sitting here on my
bed, texting my friend.

260
00:12:27,680 --> 00:12:29,800
Dayton koll, Alan's son,

261
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,080
who lived in the
apartment next door

262
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,360
described the sudden and
overwhelming smell of bleach

263
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:36,920
on the night of the 15th.

264
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,520
There was suddenly
this terrible smell.

265
00:12:39,560 --> 00:12:40,560
It was like bleach.

266
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,600
Definite bleach smell?

267
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,140
Dayton: It was, yeah. Oh, yeah.

268
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,760
Jennifer koll, Dayton's
mother, had allergies

269
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,440
and the smell of bleach was so
bad that she texted her husband Alan.

270
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:51,720
I told him.

271
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:57,160
Alan koll then said something
that got the attention of the detective.

272
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,240
This air conditioning unit,

273
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:00,000
they ran it for three
days at 60 degrees,

274
00:13:00,001 --> 00:13:01,901
they ran it for three
days at 60 degrees,

275
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:03,360
it was totally frozen over.

276
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,440
Koll said that he had to enter
the trail-boswell apartment,

277
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,000
to fix the air-conditioner.

278
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,080
The coils were totally frozen,

279
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,740
I have no idea why,
why did they do that?

280
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,460
Three whole days? Yeah.

281
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,020
Detectives were quickly
putting the pieces together,

282
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,220
to find the whereabouts
of Sydney loofe.

283
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,680
Thank you for all
of your prayers.

284
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,540
Reporter: Those prayers and support
have come in a huge outpouring,

285
00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:25,460
from prayer vigils
help for Sydney,

286
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:26,960
in her hometown, of neligh,

287
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,240
to wilber, her last
known location.

288
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,680
Investigators found phone data

289
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,800
from Bailey boswell's cell

290
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,840
and three women believed to
know the couple were contacted

291
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,760
directly by the Lincoln pd.

292
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,200
The women all told the same
story to FBI special agents,

293
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:51,480
that they met Bailey Audrey boswell
on tinder in the summer of 2017.

294
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:06,400
They mostly had sex with
Audrey, aka, Bailey boswell,

295
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,560
sometimes with trail
or both trail and boswell.

296
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,080
The women were
terrified of trail.

297
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:21,920
Trail wanted to be called daddy

298
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,080
and he would give the
women $200 a week allowances

299
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,120
to join their coven of witches.

300
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,840
In exchange for the money,

301
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:32,840
the women also helped set
up scams and steal antiques.

302
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,600
Trail and boswell conned
a coin-collecting couple

303
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:48,200
in hiawatha, Iowa, for $400,000.

304
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,520
Using the $400,000 stolen
from the coin collector,

305
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,280
trail and boswell lured
women online with the money

306
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,200
to create their coven
of thieves and witches.

307
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,000
There were allegedly
13 witches in the coven,

308
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:00,680
there were allegedly
13 witches in the coven,

309
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,120
although only four
have been identified,

310
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:08,080
and Bailey Audrey boswell
was the queen witch above all.

311
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,920
The women believed
Aubrey trail was a vampire

312
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,000
that could read minds and fly.

313
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,120
They were required
to kill someone

314
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,360
and take their last
breath to take their soul.

315
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,640
No, no!

316
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,120
A fascination Aubrey
trail seemed to have

317
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,680
from a Stephen King
novel, 'doctor sleep',

318
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,680
taking someone's dying breath

319
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,440
is referred to as taking the
steam, or breathing in the steam.

320
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,700
All three women say
they left the coven

321
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,200
two months before
Sydney loofe disappeared.

322
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:46,520
And then, a bombshell
hit on 4 December 2017.

323
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,440
Based on cell phone tower data
sourced by detective Robert Hurley,

324
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,180
investigators searched
an area of interest

325
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,760
90 miles southwest of
Lincoln in Clay county.

326
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,960
Detective Cory townsend was
sent to the area to investigate.

327
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,160
Townsend made
a grizzly discovery.

328
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,800
Body parts in black
plastic trash bags

329
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,480
and the distinctive tattoo
belonging to Sydney loofe that reads,

330
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,880
"everything will be
wonderful someday."

331
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,160
Officer: Yesterday afternoon,

332
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,080
a body was discovered
in rural Clay county.

333
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,880
At this time we believe it to
be the body of Sydney loofe.

334
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,240
Sydney was dismembered

335
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,080
and placed in 17 trash bags

336
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:35,160
across a rural area in
Clay county, Nebraska.

337
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,640
Woman: There are so many questions,
so many unanswered questions,

338
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,820
that that's what makes
this harder, I think,

339
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,520
'cause that we just don't know.

340
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,020
Court clerk: The court
is taking up the case

341
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,500
as the state of Nebraska
versus Aubrey trail.

342
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,240
This is case cr18 232.

343
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,240
Bailey would be tried separately

344
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,000
and Aubrey's trial
would happen first.

345
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:00,320
And Aubrey's trial
would happen first.

346
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,800
Opening statements begin in
the trial against Aubrey's trail.

347
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,560
He is accused of murdering
Sydney loofe in November 2017

348
00:17:07,599 --> 00:17:09,439
trail claimed it
was an accident.

349
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,680
However, surveillance footage
from home depot showed

350
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,800
that trail and boswell
bought the kill bag contents

351
00:17:15,839 --> 00:17:17,719
including saws, and cutters,

352
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,440
the morning of the
second tinder date

353
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,760
on 15 November 2017.

354
00:17:24,120 --> 00:17:27,200
The picture of Sydney's
last night became clearer.

355
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,900
Bailey picks up
Sydney from her house.

356
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,800
She calls you and tells
you that she is on her way.

357
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,180
This is true. Back to wilber.

358
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:37,440
This is true.

359
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,440
And Sydney never leaves
your place. This is true.

360
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,200
Except in six garbage
bags? This is true.

361
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,480
Dumped in the
trash? This is true.

362
00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:57,120
Sydney put up a
tremendous fight.

363
00:18:02,120 --> 00:18:04,880
I killed her. I mean,
I didn't mean to.

364
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:06,000
But I did.

365
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,440
Trail admitted that the end
was sloppy and poorly planned.

366
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,320
Claiming he wasn't a
killer, just a con-man

367
00:18:14,360 --> 00:18:17,400
and that the electrical cord
was part of the sex play.

368
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,160
The last thing Sydney
loofe ever said to me

369
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,680
was, "do you
promise I will be ok?"

370
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,120
It's the last thing
she ever said to me.

371
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,000
Bailey is innocent,
and I curse you all.

372
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,880
There was pandemonium in
the saline county courtroom

373
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,760
on day six of the trial

374
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,640
where the accused killer
Aubrey trail cut his own throat.

375
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,360
The trial for Aubrey trail
was an absolute circus.

376
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,000
Today, testimony resumes
in Nebraska, murder trial,

377
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,580
today, testimony resumes
in Nebraska, murder trial,

378
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,600
after a bizarre series of
events in the courtroom.

379
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,980
Judge Vicky Johnson
has instructed jurors

380
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,200
to disregard
yesterday's outburst,

381
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,560
and not consider it as evidence.

382
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,280
The trial included
groundbreaking technology

383
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,080
as Robert Hurley tracked
the phone of Bailey boswell

384
00:19:17,120 --> 00:19:20,400
via cell phone towers
and call activity.

385
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,540
Investigators could
accurately monitor

386
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,020
the speed that boswell's
phone was travelling at

387
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:26,960
and where the phone stopped.

388
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,240
Each stop directly
corresponded with a drop-off point

389
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:31,400
of Sydney's remains.

390
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,280
The duo left a digital trail

391
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,280
where all signs lead to them
being Sydney loofe's killers.

392
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,840
The information from
horizon that was received

393
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,520
was that the phone had been
inactive for about 24 hours.

394
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,040
But had last pinged
in wilber, Nebraska.

395
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,020
Chilling testimony
from the three women

396
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,240
who joined the
trail/boswell coven

397
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,700
included that the couple
wanted to kill another woman

398
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,280
on 22 November 2017,

399
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:56,920
one week after Sydney's murder.

400
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,000
Aubrey had a real talent
for collecting people

401
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:00,720
Aubrey had a real talent
for collecting people

402
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,720
to be part of his covenant.

403
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:07,960
Basically to be his cult followers
that were generally disenfranchised.

404
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:09,280
He was able to control them

405
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,460
and get them to do
really grotesque things

406
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,840
with just the smallest
amount of money.

407
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,040
They heard all of this
stuff, about the witchcraft,

408
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,520
they heard all of this stuff

409
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,880
about us plotting to
kill and torture people.

410
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,420
I'm gonna share something that
I've never shared with anyone,

411
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,160
and I sure as hell
didn't admit it to the FBI,

412
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,160
my goal was all
six of these women,

413
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,840
was to have them
kill one person,

414
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,320
that way, I would
have filmed it,

415
00:20:37,360 --> 00:20:40,320
I wanted to hide the
video somewhere,

416
00:20:40,360 --> 00:20:42,320
and then I own these girls,

417
00:20:42,360 --> 00:20:46,400
because I would have them
on tape murdering someone.

418
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,680
On 10 July 2019,

419
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,480
Aubrey trial was found guilty
for the murder of Sydney loofe.

420
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,040
The state of Nebraska

421
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,400
and Aubrey trail the defendant

422
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,000
guilty of murder
in the first degree.

423
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,060
Guilty of murder
in the first degree.

424
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:05,080
Trail was given the death penalty
for the murder of Sydney loofe.

425
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,020
Boswell found guilty
of the murder of Sydney

426
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,920
faces sentencing
on 8 November 2021.

427
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:15,160
A three-judge panel will rule if
the death penalty is warranted.

428
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,000
Sydney loofe met
her murderer online.

429
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,040
