Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:07,773
It was a massacre.
2
00:00:07,875 --> 00:00:11,877
The type of person that
created this murder is a devil.
3
00:00:11,979 --> 00:00:15,681
Newlyweds
brutally gunned down.
4
00:00:15,783 --> 00:00:17,816
This is something
very personal.
5
00:00:17,918 --> 00:00:20,819
A lot of rounds were
fired at them.
6
00:00:20,921 --> 00:00:25,224
A world of unexpected
suspects and secret deals.
7
00:00:25,326 --> 00:00:26,792
Did this family feud
that they have
8
00:00:26,894 --> 00:00:29,228
rise to the level of
a sister killing her brother?
9
00:00:29,330 --> 00:00:31,063
The life insurance policy
10
00:00:31,165 --> 00:00:32,364
was for $1 million dollars.
11
00:00:32,466 --> 00:00:35,300
If something happened to one,
the other would be paid.
12
00:00:35,403 --> 00:00:36,868
You have
somebody involved with
13
00:00:36,937 --> 00:00:39,872
an outlaw biker gang,
perhaps they owed money
14
00:00:39,974 --> 00:00:43,609
to this gang,
and the killing was retribution.
15
00:00:43,711 --> 00:00:45,811
The truth will be revealed.
16
00:00:45,913 --> 00:00:48,714
There's
the psychopathic undercurrent
17
00:00:48,816 --> 00:00:50,449
that was driving him,
18
00:00:50,551 --> 00:00:52,518
plus entitlement and greed.
19
00:00:54,121 --> 00:00:58,624
We have a cocktail of the most
volatile motivators.
20
00:01:00,895 --> 00:01:02,728
Every day in North America,
21
00:01:02,830 --> 00:01:05,164
dozens of people are murdered.
22
00:01:05,266 --> 00:01:07,666
The key to solving
the toughest of these homicides
23
00:01:07,768 --> 00:01:11,770
lies in the final 24 hours
of the victim's life.
24
00:01:11,872 --> 00:01:13,138
To crack the case,
25
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,975
detectives must reconstruct
that critical timeline,
26
00:01:17,078 --> 00:01:19,645
the minutes and hours
containing evidence
27
00:01:19,747 --> 00:01:21,780
that can help unlock
the mystery
28
00:01:21,916 --> 00:01:23,248
and catch the killer.
29
00:01:33,060 --> 00:01:35,828
Wilmington, Delaware,
the largest city in the state,
30
00:01:35,930 --> 00:01:39,031
where some of america's
wealthiest entrepreneurs live
31
00:01:39,133 --> 00:01:40,432
as modern-day royalty.
32
00:01:43,604 --> 00:01:46,271
The dupont chemical
corporation was founded
33
00:01:46,373 --> 00:01:47,773
right on the banks
of the river here
34
00:01:47,875 --> 00:01:50,843
and Wilmington
became sort of a prosperous
35
00:01:50,945 --> 00:01:52,277
little small city.
36
00:01:53,647 --> 00:01:56,815
It's still a city
with a lot of wealth,
37
00:01:56,917 --> 00:01:58,450
and in the suburbs
of the city,
38
00:01:58,552 --> 00:02:01,386
there's some of the richest
people in the world.
39
00:02:02,556 --> 00:02:05,924
Wilmington's also on
the corridor or i-95,
40
00:02:06,026 --> 00:02:07,893
so it's on
a pipeline of drugs.
41
00:02:09,964 --> 00:02:11,730
So consequently,
42
00:02:11,832 --> 00:02:14,900
there's a lot of drug gangs
that have popped up.
43
00:02:15,002 --> 00:02:18,337
Wilmington itself
has gotten some negative press.
44
00:02:18,439 --> 00:02:20,405
It was recently referred to
as murder town
45
00:02:20,508 --> 00:02:22,841
in a nationwide article.
46
00:02:22,943 --> 00:02:25,978
Wilmington was
the third most violent city
47
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,647
of its size in the country.
48
00:02:28,749 --> 00:02:31,750
But it's really based on
four small neighborhoods.
49
00:02:31,852 --> 00:02:34,520
If you go there at night,
and you're involved in
50
00:02:34,622 --> 00:02:35,621
anything illegal,
51
00:02:35,723 --> 00:02:36,855
your life could be
in jeopardy.
52
00:02:39,793 --> 00:02:41,393
Early one sunday morning,
53
00:02:41,495 --> 00:02:43,562
Wilmington's violence
crosses over
54
00:02:43,664 --> 00:02:46,265
into an unexpected
part of town --
55
00:02:46,367 --> 00:02:48,267
the paladin club condominiums.
56
00:03:09,190 --> 00:03:12,858
So 1:16 A.M.,
911 received a call
57
00:03:14,562 --> 00:03:16,862
about a woman down
on the ground
58
00:03:16,964 --> 00:03:19,965
apparently shot,
very bloody scene.
59
00:03:23,637 --> 00:03:25,704
Police arrive,
and they saw this woman.
60
00:03:27,208 --> 00:03:28,807
She was shot at close range.
61
00:03:31,845 --> 00:03:34,079
She was shot four times.
62
00:03:34,181 --> 00:03:37,883
She was shot in the face
and other parts of her body.
63
00:03:42,556 --> 00:03:46,425
The victim is
39-year-old Olga connell.
64
00:03:46,527 --> 00:03:49,861
Olga is this sweet,
65
00:03:49,964 --> 00:03:52,064
very striking woman.
66
00:03:53,901 --> 00:03:58,036
She's outgoing.
She likes to socialize.
67
00:03:59,607 --> 00:04:03,075
She grew up in -- in Russia
in this coastal city.
68
00:04:04,678 --> 00:04:07,846
In her mid-twenties,
she decided to come to
69
00:04:07,948 --> 00:04:08,880
the United States.
70
00:04:11,719 --> 00:04:13,018
At the crime scene,
71
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,654
police soon make another
grisly discovery.
72
00:04:18,559 --> 00:04:20,859
There was a male off
to the left of the front door.
73
00:04:22,263 --> 00:04:24,863
He was lying face down,
clutching his cellphone.
74
00:04:26,267 --> 00:04:28,834
He had multiple gunshot
wounds, and there were
75
00:04:28,936 --> 00:04:30,569
cartridge casings
around his body.
76
00:04:33,641 --> 00:04:35,507
With the close proximity of
the cartridge casings,
77
00:04:35,609 --> 00:04:37,442
you could tell that someone
stood over top of him
78
00:04:37,544 --> 00:04:38,810
and fired.
79
00:04:40,047 --> 00:04:42,414
The second victim
is Olga's husband,
80
00:04:42,516 --> 00:04:45,050
mechanic and entrepreneur,
Joe connell.
81
00:04:48,155 --> 00:04:51,823
My Joey,
he was a sweet boy.
82
00:04:51,925 --> 00:04:53,759
Joey was very active.
83
00:04:53,861 --> 00:04:58,130
He was interested in
so many things growing up.
84
00:04:58,232 --> 00:05:01,400
He had
a wonderful personality.
85
00:05:01,502 --> 00:05:04,102
He made everybody
around him happy.
86
00:05:05,873 --> 00:05:06,972
He was special.
87
00:05:09,243 --> 00:05:11,009
The connells
are newlyweds who
88
00:05:11,111 --> 00:05:12,711
got married three
months earlier.
89
00:05:14,481 --> 00:05:16,648
Joe was a rugged,
90
00:05:16,750 --> 00:05:19,851
motorcycle-driving mechanic
91
00:05:19,953 --> 00:05:21,920
who liked like to eat takeout
all the time.
92
00:05:23,657 --> 00:05:27,693
And then he met Olga, who was
sophisticated and gorgeous
93
00:05:27,795 --> 00:05:31,563
and liked to go out to
restaurants and fancy stuff.
94
00:05:31,665 --> 00:05:36,034
So they blended that -- she
would do what he liked to do.
95
00:05:36,136 --> 00:05:39,871
He did what she liked to do.
They just enjoyed each other.
96
00:05:41,842 --> 00:05:43,241
They were happy.
97
00:05:45,245 --> 00:05:46,712
Heading up the investigation
98
00:05:46,814 --> 00:05:49,281
into the murders of Joe
and Olga connell
99
00:05:49,383 --> 00:05:52,651
are sergeants Jamie Leonard
and Justin breslin.
100
00:05:57,091 --> 00:05:58,323
At the crime scene,
101
00:05:58,425 --> 00:06:01,093
Olga had her keys
in the front door.
102
00:06:01,195 --> 00:06:03,795
Her phone was on the sidewalk.
103
00:06:05,999 --> 00:06:07,532
All her jewelry was still on.
104
00:06:07,634 --> 00:06:10,602
They had car keys.
They had everything.
105
00:06:12,473 --> 00:06:13,939
We could tell
fairly quickly that it
106
00:06:14,041 --> 00:06:15,440
wasn't a robbery
or anything like that.
107
00:06:19,780 --> 00:06:21,079
This is something
very personal.
108
00:06:23,484 --> 00:06:26,151
A lot of rounds
were fired at them.
109
00:06:26,253 --> 00:06:28,487
Olga clearly made it
to the door.
110
00:06:30,491 --> 00:06:32,157
And she starts taking fire.
111
00:06:34,027 --> 00:06:36,528
And based upon the way
he fell, which was facedown,
112
00:06:38,465 --> 00:06:40,799
Joe attempted to flee
113
00:06:40,901 --> 00:06:42,367
but was unsuccessful.
114
00:06:47,241 --> 00:06:49,708
There was two different
calibers of ammunition.
115
00:06:49,810 --> 00:06:52,677
There was 9-millimeter and
22-caliber ammunition.
116
00:06:52,780 --> 00:06:55,147
It definitely means
two different weapons.
117
00:06:55,249 --> 00:06:57,516
But whether or not
there were two shooters
118
00:06:57,618 --> 00:06:59,551
remains to be known.
119
00:06:59,653 --> 00:07:02,387
This is often the telltale
marker of what we call
120
00:07:02,489 --> 00:07:05,157
a team killing,
which is two or more people
121
00:07:05,259 --> 00:07:07,793
united in
a single act of murder.
122
00:07:07,895 --> 00:07:10,162
This wasn't something that
just randomly happened.
123
00:07:10,264 --> 00:07:12,297
It was something that appeared
to be planned.
124
00:07:13,634 --> 00:07:15,133
There's an empty
parking spot directly in front
125
00:07:15,235 --> 00:07:18,637
of their building, and in that
parking spot off to the side,
126
00:07:18,739 --> 00:07:21,072
there's a live round
of ammunition.
127
00:07:21,175 --> 00:07:24,609
So was the shooter parked
in this parking spot?
128
00:07:24,711 --> 00:07:27,913
And if they weren't, why didn't
Joe and Olga park directly
129
00:07:28,015 --> 00:07:30,282
in front of their building,
because it had been raining?
130
00:07:30,384 --> 00:07:33,885
So the natural deduction in
that was that this particular
131
00:07:33,987 --> 00:07:35,887
spot was occupied
by the person
132
00:07:35,989 --> 00:07:37,389
or people responsible
for this.
133
00:07:40,260 --> 00:07:42,694
This case was unique in
the sense that there were
134
00:07:42,830 --> 00:07:44,463
two victims.
135
00:07:44,565 --> 00:07:48,200
We deal with and have seen
drug-related killings
136
00:07:48,302 --> 00:07:52,137
or killings that were the result
of a robbery gone bad.
137
00:07:52,239 --> 00:07:54,339
But the manner in which
they were shot is not something
138
00:07:54,441 --> 00:07:58,477
we customarily see and hear,
and that is an execution.
139
00:07:58,579 --> 00:08:01,913
They were executed
in front of that building.
140
00:08:02,015 --> 00:08:04,216
Someone came there to do
a specific task,
141
00:08:04,318 --> 00:08:06,651
was successful in that task,
and then fled
142
00:08:08,822 --> 00:08:10,755
to find the connells' killer,
143
00:08:10,858 --> 00:08:12,657
detectives will need
to reconstruct
144
00:08:12,759 --> 00:08:14,960
the final 24 hours
of their lives.
145
00:08:16,697 --> 00:08:19,798
So police know
that between 1:16 A.M.
146
00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:21,666
And 1:19 A.M.,
147
00:08:21,768 --> 00:08:23,869
there were the sounds of
gunshots, and that
148
00:08:23,971 --> 00:08:25,871
provides a window for when
this might have occurred.
149
00:08:28,675 --> 00:08:30,075
Timelines are
important, generally speaking,
150
00:08:30,177 --> 00:08:31,810
because they give you
a starting point.
151
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,981
We have the homicide of
Joe and Olga connell,
152
00:08:36,116 --> 00:08:38,149
and then we work backwards.
153
00:08:38,252 --> 00:08:41,620
And in working backwards,
we need to figure out who Joe
154
00:08:41,722 --> 00:08:43,321
and/or Olga were talking to,
155
00:08:43,423 --> 00:08:46,291
who they might have been with,
who they had seen
156
00:08:46,393 --> 00:08:47,592
before they were killed.
157
00:08:50,864 --> 00:08:53,465
To help fill out
the couple's final hours,
158
00:08:53,567 --> 00:08:56,268
investigators speak with Joe's
mother, mickie.
159
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,475
Olga was going
to be 39 years old.
160
00:09:03,577 --> 00:09:06,478
So that night, they went to
dinner with some of
161
00:09:06,580 --> 00:09:08,480
their friends.
162
00:09:08,582 --> 00:09:11,449
There was food,
there was drink,
163
00:09:11,552 --> 00:09:14,152
and it was, you know,
all their close friends.
164
00:09:14,254 --> 00:09:17,055
Everybody left around 12:30,
165
00:09:17,124 --> 00:09:19,424
and then Joe and Olga hung
around for a little bit.
166
00:09:19,526 --> 00:09:21,359
Maybe they had a last drink.
167
00:09:21,461 --> 00:09:23,562
And they left around
one o'clock.
168
00:09:25,999 --> 00:09:27,766
Detectives ask mickie
if she knows of
169
00:09:27,868 --> 00:09:30,802
anyone with a grudge
against Olga or Joe.
170
00:09:32,172 --> 00:09:37,208
She offers up an unexpected
tale of bitter sibling rivalry.
171
00:09:37,311 --> 00:09:41,046
I have four children,
and everyone grew up
172
00:09:41,148 --> 00:09:42,714
in Delaware.
173
00:09:42,816 --> 00:09:46,151
Kelly is the youngest.
Then comes Joe.
174
00:09:46,253 --> 00:09:49,854
I was closest
with Joey growing up.
175
00:09:49,957 --> 00:09:52,624
He was a jokester,
prankster.
176
00:09:52,726 --> 00:09:55,827
Did a lot of pranks
to me -- I grew up
177
00:09:55,929 --> 00:09:58,463
always knowing Joey
was the favorite.
178
00:09:58,565 --> 00:10:02,567
It just is how it was, you know,
he got everything he wanted,
179
00:10:02,669 --> 00:10:04,002
no matter what it was.
180
00:10:05,539 --> 00:10:06,871
It was always given to him.
181
00:10:09,242 --> 00:10:11,276
Detectives learn
that years earlier,
182
00:10:11,378 --> 00:10:12,744
when Kelly got married,
183
00:10:12,846 --> 00:10:15,313
her mother gave her
a diamond ring.
184
00:10:15,415 --> 00:10:17,282
The family heirloom
soon became
185
00:10:17,384 --> 00:10:19,851
a point of contention
between the siblings.
186
00:10:19,953 --> 00:10:24,689
Joey said "mom, I would really
like to marry Olga,
187
00:10:24,791 --> 00:10:27,726
and I was wondering what
you did with your ring."
188
00:10:27,828 --> 00:10:29,594
I said I gave 'em to Kelly.
189
00:10:29,696 --> 00:10:32,864
And he said, "you think you can
get 'em back from Kelly?"
190
00:10:34,768 --> 00:10:37,902
So I got the ring.
I gave it to Joe.
191
00:10:38,005 --> 00:10:41,006
I didn't see where Kelly
would really need that ring
192
00:10:41,108 --> 00:10:44,042
at that time,
because she's divorced,
193
00:10:44,144 --> 00:10:47,612
and Joey asked me, and I would
do anything for Joey.
194
00:10:50,617 --> 00:10:52,817
When Kelly found out,
195
00:10:52,919 --> 00:10:54,119
this was bad.
196
00:10:57,290 --> 00:10:59,024
It was a $20,000 ring.
197
00:11:02,229 --> 00:11:03,928
I mean, I was really angry.
198
00:11:05,899 --> 00:11:07,265
I just felt kicked
in the teeth.
199
00:11:10,370 --> 00:11:13,838
Furious,
Kelly confronts Joe and Olga.
200
00:11:13,940 --> 00:11:18,777
She made texts to Olga
asking for the ring back.
201
00:11:21,314 --> 00:11:22,547
Olga was upset.
202
00:11:23,917 --> 00:11:25,684
That's when
the fight started.
203
00:11:28,755 --> 00:11:29,721
Joe was livid.
204
00:11:31,324 --> 00:11:33,258
Joe said,
"I don't want anything
205
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,794
"to ever do with you
or your children again.
206
00:11:35,896 --> 00:11:38,463
Stay the f away."
They were getting nasty.
207
00:11:40,834 --> 00:11:42,701
When the couple's
home is burglarized
208
00:11:42,803 --> 00:11:44,502
shortly before the murder,
209
00:11:44,604 --> 00:11:46,504
all eyes turned towards Kelly.
210
00:11:49,443 --> 00:11:52,243
In July of that year,
someone had pried open
211
00:11:52,345 --> 00:11:56,514
their front door
and stolen some jewelry,
212
00:11:56,616 --> 00:11:58,116
a laptop, and fled.
213
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,920
Joe thought Kelly did it,
214
00:12:02,022 --> 00:12:03,555
because he was telling people,
215
00:12:03,657 --> 00:12:07,459
and some of the family said,
"Kelly probably did it."
216
00:12:10,497 --> 00:12:13,098
All arrows pointed to Kelly.
217
00:12:15,202 --> 00:12:18,503
So I was caught
in the middle of thinking,
218
00:12:18,605 --> 00:12:20,672
did she or did she not?
219
00:12:20,774 --> 00:12:24,142
It's not uncommon
for family to kill family,
220
00:12:24,244 --> 00:12:26,711
but did it happen
in this case?
221
00:12:26,813 --> 00:12:28,913
Sargeant breslin and I
had to get in there
222
00:12:29,015 --> 00:12:30,949
and figure out exactly
what happened.
223
00:12:38,525 --> 00:12:41,526
In the brutal murder
of Joe and Olga connell,
224
00:12:41,628 --> 00:12:44,362
detectives zero in
on a surprising suspect...
225
00:12:45,565 --> 00:12:48,166
Joe's sister, Kelly.
226
00:12:48,268 --> 00:12:50,769
Joe, Kelly, and Olga
had been fighting
227
00:12:50,871 --> 00:12:53,037
over this ring
and that burglary.
228
00:12:54,908 --> 00:12:57,675
The feud intensified,
and Olga tried
229
00:12:57,778 --> 00:12:59,611
to get what we call here
in Delaware
230
00:12:59,713 --> 00:13:01,079
a protection
from abuse order
231
00:13:01,181 --> 00:13:02,514
or you may know it as
a restraining order.
232
00:13:04,718 --> 00:13:07,519
The feud was certainly something
that could come to violence.
233
00:13:10,323 --> 00:13:11,756
Did this family feud
that they have
234
00:13:11,858 --> 00:13:13,091
rise to the level of
a sister wanting
235
00:13:13,193 --> 00:13:14,559
to have her brother killed?
236
00:13:14,661 --> 00:13:16,995
Or possibly
physically killing her brother?
237
00:13:21,101 --> 00:13:23,067
Detectives bring
Joe's sister Kelly
238
00:13:23,170 --> 00:13:24,602
into the station
for questioning.
239
00:13:26,673 --> 00:13:28,306
Kelly's reaction when
240
00:13:28,408 --> 00:13:30,241
we told her what happened
to her brother,
241
00:13:30,343 --> 00:13:31,543
it weighed heavy on her.
242
00:13:32,979 --> 00:13:36,815
We would have to go through
15 minutes, allowing
243
00:13:36,917 --> 00:13:39,217
her to compose herself
every time we talked to her.
244
00:13:41,454 --> 00:13:44,355
But her reaction
could be faked.
245
00:13:46,526 --> 00:13:48,993
With suspicion
swirling around Kelly,
246
00:13:49,095 --> 00:13:51,863
police ask about her whereabouts
the night of the murders.
247
00:13:54,467 --> 00:13:56,868
I'm home recovering from
surgery at this time.
248
00:13:58,238 --> 00:14:01,072
I'm just home,
focusing on me,
249
00:14:01,174 --> 00:14:04,008
focusing on my kids,
broken-hearted that
250
00:14:04,110 --> 00:14:06,911
Joey's not there for me.
251
00:14:07,013 --> 00:14:09,547
Detectives dig into
Kelly's story to confirm
252
00:14:09,649 --> 00:14:12,717
whether she's telling
the truth or lying.
253
00:14:12,819 --> 00:14:15,386
We learned that just prior
to her brother's death,
254
00:14:15,488 --> 00:14:17,255
Kelly had had a medical
procedure done
255
00:14:17,357 --> 00:14:20,458
that kind of rendered her
not necessarily bedridden,
256
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,427
but she didn't go out
of the house very often.
257
00:14:22,562 --> 00:14:23,995
She was weak.
She was tired.
258
00:14:25,498 --> 00:14:27,265
We're looking through her phone
and see she's communicating
259
00:14:27,367 --> 00:14:29,400
with people that night,
telling them,
260
00:14:29,502 --> 00:14:30,735
"hey, I'm at home tonight."
261
00:14:30,804 --> 00:14:33,071
Or, "yeah, I'm not
leaving the house."
262
00:14:33,173 --> 00:14:35,740
And also, GPS tower locations
show that
263
00:14:35,842 --> 00:14:37,175
she was where
she said she was.
264
00:14:38,979 --> 00:14:41,112
On top of all that,
we know
265
00:14:41,214 --> 00:14:45,783
she had no means to pay
someone to do this.
266
00:14:45,886 --> 00:14:49,721
This double homicide, if it was
a paid contract, it's not cheap.
267
00:14:51,024 --> 00:14:52,156
At this point in time,
268
00:14:52,259 --> 00:14:54,259
sergeant breslin and I
were confident that Kelly
269
00:14:54,361 --> 00:14:55,760
is not the driving force
270
00:14:55,862 --> 00:14:57,762
behind the death of her brother
and his wife.
271
00:15:02,202 --> 00:15:04,369
Before leaving,
Kelly reveals
272
00:15:04,471 --> 00:15:05,637
there's someone she's always
273
00:15:05,739 --> 00:15:09,107
been suspicious of --
Joe's business partner,
274
00:15:09,209 --> 00:15:10,608
Chris rivers.
275
00:15:10,710 --> 00:15:13,044
Kelly was not fond of
Chris rivers.
276
00:15:13,146 --> 00:15:16,247
She had nothing good
to say about Chris.
277
00:15:16,349 --> 00:15:19,918
Chris and Joe partnered
at this one shop called
278
00:15:20,020 --> 00:15:22,153
cns automotive.
279
00:15:22,255 --> 00:15:25,890
Chris bought this old
jiffy lube, and he converted it
280
00:15:25,992 --> 00:15:28,126
into a high-tech
auto repair shop,
281
00:15:28,228 --> 00:15:30,528
and it was very successful.
282
00:15:30,630 --> 00:15:32,497
Joe goes to work
at the shop.
283
00:15:33,934 --> 00:15:37,068
Joe was a good mechanic,
and he's reliable,
284
00:15:37,170 --> 00:15:39,003
and Chris asked Joe
to be his partner.
285
00:15:41,508 --> 00:15:43,007
Looking for answers,
286
00:15:43,109 --> 00:15:45,209
detectives bring
Chris rivers down
287
00:15:45,312 --> 00:15:46,678
to the station
for questioning.
288
00:15:49,049 --> 00:15:50,615
Talking to Chris rivers,
you could see
289
00:15:50,717 --> 00:15:51,816
that he was visibly nervous.
290
00:15:53,687 --> 00:15:55,720
He's breathing heavily,
and you could see his pulse
291
00:15:55,822 --> 00:15:56,854
in his neck.
292
00:15:58,258 --> 00:15:59,724
We told him we were there
to speak to him
293
00:15:59,826 --> 00:16:01,392
about his business partner.
294
00:16:17,277 --> 00:16:19,944
Chris's reaction
to Joe and Olga's death
295
00:16:20,046 --> 00:16:21,713
raises a red flag.
296
00:16:21,815 --> 00:16:26,084
Genuine grief just didn't
really manifest itself at all.
297
00:16:26,186 --> 00:16:28,152
I give him a minute,
298
00:16:28,254 --> 00:16:30,088
kind of stepped away
and watched from
299
00:16:30,223 --> 00:16:32,123
the monitoring room to see
if maybe it's just
300
00:16:32,225 --> 00:16:34,759
because there's, like, machismo,
he doesn't want to
301
00:16:34,861 --> 00:16:37,829
break down and cry in front of
me -- it just never changed.
302
00:16:37,931 --> 00:16:42,100
It was this fake, repetitive,
"my god, my god."
303
00:16:44,771 --> 00:16:46,204
It varies
case by case,
304
00:16:46,306 --> 00:16:49,507
what tells what reveals
a suspect who's actually
305
00:16:49,609 --> 00:16:54,445
committed the crime will sort
of unveil for investigators.
306
00:16:54,547 --> 00:16:57,115
Some will go too far,
will go over the top,
307
00:16:57,217 --> 00:17:01,219
excessive grief --
some become too restrained.
308
00:17:01,321 --> 00:17:03,888
Everyone deals with
grief differently.
309
00:17:04,024 --> 00:17:05,923
So you don't want to focus
310
00:17:06,026 --> 00:17:09,394
too much on a grieving
person's behavior.
311
00:17:12,332 --> 00:17:14,098
Despite his odd reaction,
312
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,267
Chris is forthcoming.
313
00:17:16,369 --> 00:17:18,970
He told US Joe had done
a little time in prison
314
00:17:19,072 --> 00:17:22,340
after an incident at a bar
where he brandished a shotgun.
315
00:17:23,910 --> 00:17:25,943
He was convicted
at a jury trial of
316
00:17:26,046 --> 00:17:28,346
firearms charges
and aggravated menacing charges
317
00:17:28,448 --> 00:17:31,249
and ends up with
a mandatory prison sentence.
318
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:34,786
After getting out of prison,
319
00:17:34,888 --> 00:17:36,954
Joe tried to turn
his life around.
320
00:17:38,858 --> 00:17:40,591
Joe was attempting
to do everything right.
321
00:17:40,693 --> 00:17:42,794
He got this job,
he's staying out of trouble
322
00:17:42,896 --> 00:17:44,896
by all accounts,
there's no record of him
323
00:17:44,998 --> 00:17:47,231
getting into any sort of
probation trouble
324
00:17:47,367 --> 00:17:49,167
after his initial prison term.
325
00:17:50,770 --> 00:17:52,103
He seems to be
on the right track.
326
00:17:54,407 --> 00:17:56,707
But Chris says
as the business grew,
327
00:17:56,810 --> 00:17:59,710
the partnership
started to fall apart,
328
00:17:59,813 --> 00:18:03,181
especially after Joe hired
Olga as the receptionist.
329
00:18:05,151 --> 00:18:08,753
He then goes on to say
that Olga works there, too,
330
00:18:08,855 --> 00:18:12,423
and they're always together,
and they leave early together.
331
00:18:15,762 --> 00:18:17,595
Ultimately,
Chris says that Joe had
332
00:18:17,697 --> 00:18:20,131
become a problem
around the shop.
333
00:18:20,233 --> 00:18:21,899
He wasn't pulling his weight,
334
00:18:22,001 --> 00:18:24,268
and he wasn't
working full hours.
335
00:18:41,221 --> 00:18:43,855
With tension at play
between Chris and Joe,
336
00:18:43,957 --> 00:18:47,058
detectives ask him where
he was the night of the murders.
337
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,327
Now we need to kind of
establish his timeline.
338
00:18:49,429 --> 00:18:51,295
"When was the last time
you spoke to Joe?
339
00:18:51,397 --> 00:18:55,399
When's the last time you guys
had met up or you socialized?"
340
00:18:57,937 --> 00:19:00,805
So he begins to give me
more or less a play-by-play
341
00:19:00,907 --> 00:19:03,441
of his whereabouts.
342
00:19:03,543 --> 00:19:04,675
Chris was supposed
to show up
343
00:19:04,777 --> 00:19:07,512
for a celebration
of Olga's birthday.
344
00:19:07,614 --> 00:19:11,149
However, Chris never showed up,
he never made it to the bar.
345
00:19:12,752 --> 00:19:15,052
He was late
getting done from work,
346
00:19:15,155 --> 00:19:19,323
and then he had to get
his child's mom dinner.
347
00:19:19,425 --> 00:19:21,559
Then he says
that he went home.
348
00:19:22,929 --> 00:19:25,963
So I ask Chris for times --
are you having
349
00:19:26,065 --> 00:19:27,999
any communication with
him back and forth?
350
00:19:29,202 --> 00:19:30,568
He said, "yeah, we were
texting back and forth
351
00:19:30,670 --> 00:19:33,704
related to are you coming down
to this party?"
352
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,441
According to Chris,
at 11:38, Joe texted,
353
00:19:37,544 --> 00:19:40,811
saying he and Olga would only
be out for another hour.
354
00:19:40,914 --> 00:19:43,114
So Chris decides to stay home
for the night.
355
00:19:44,617 --> 00:19:45,683
Chris said that he was home,
356
00:19:45,785 --> 00:19:47,552
and he said that he had
surveillance to support
357
00:19:47,654 --> 00:19:49,687
his alibi at the time
of the murder.
358
00:20:03,203 --> 00:20:05,102
Chris told US, take my
surveillance cameras that
359
00:20:05,205 --> 00:20:07,471
I have both inside
and outside of my house.
360
00:20:09,309 --> 00:20:11,342
Detectives
dig into Chris's alibi
361
00:20:11,444 --> 00:20:13,444
for the night of the murders.
362
00:20:13,546 --> 00:20:14,946
So we have more or less
this timeline from
363
00:20:15,048 --> 00:20:16,214
the surveillance cameras
364
00:20:16,316 --> 00:20:18,716
and Joe's phone that shows
this communication between
365
00:20:18,818 --> 00:20:20,585
he and Chris.
366
00:20:20,687 --> 00:20:22,320
We talked to his child's
mother, who said,
367
00:20:22,422 --> 00:20:25,756
"yeah, he came in
about 11 with dinner."
368
00:20:25,858 --> 00:20:29,460
We had good, quality,
credible information.
369
00:20:29,562 --> 00:20:31,963
Chris was home when Joe
and Olga were killed,
370
00:20:32,065 --> 00:20:33,564
that was clear --
he got home about 11,
371
00:20:33,666 --> 00:20:35,199
and he left
the following morning.
372
00:20:39,038 --> 00:20:40,571
With his alibi confirmed
373
00:20:40,673 --> 00:20:42,173
for the time of the killings,
374
00:20:42,275 --> 00:20:44,375
Chris tells police
he has some information
375
00:20:44,477 --> 00:20:46,043
he's been holding back.
376
00:20:47,513 --> 00:20:50,681
Chris says that Joe
used a lot of steroids,
377
00:20:52,785 --> 00:20:55,553
and Joe sells steroids
from my shop.
378
00:20:58,024 --> 00:21:01,392
Chris says to me, "it makes me
mad, and I'm angry about it,
379
00:21:01,494 --> 00:21:02,994
and I confronted him about it."
380
00:21:05,999 --> 00:21:07,832
And he also -- he says to me,
381
00:21:07,934 --> 00:21:09,433
"I don't want
these guys coming after me."
382
00:21:11,437 --> 00:21:13,237
I said, "what guys are you
referring to?"
383
00:21:13,339 --> 00:21:15,306
He's like, "well, this has got
to be about steroids."
384
00:21:16,976 --> 00:21:19,043
As detectives consider
that the murders could
385
00:21:19,145 --> 00:21:21,879
be related to Joe's illegal
side venture,
386
00:21:21,981 --> 00:21:24,715
Chris makes his most startling
disclosure yet.
387
00:21:26,686 --> 00:21:29,086
Chris had offered up
that Joe was involved
388
00:21:29,188 --> 00:21:32,423
with or a member of an outlaw
motorcycle club called
389
00:21:32,525 --> 00:21:34,158
the pagans.
390
00:21:34,260 --> 00:21:35,826
Chris had suggested
that maybe
391
00:21:35,928 --> 00:21:37,928
the pagans could be
responsible for this.
392
00:21:38,031 --> 00:21:41,132
We look at the fact that, one,
Joe and Olga were executed,
393
00:21:41,234 --> 00:21:43,634
two, we know now
from Chris that Joe was
394
00:21:43,736 --> 00:21:45,569
selling steroids.
395
00:21:45,672 --> 00:21:48,272
Now enter
this outlaw motorcycle club.
396
00:21:54,047 --> 00:21:57,348
For what we know
about their organization,
397
00:21:57,450 --> 00:21:59,450
killing, drug dealing,
398
00:21:59,552 --> 00:22:02,620
all these things kind of fit
in with the way they operate.
399
00:22:05,091 --> 00:22:06,657
So we're thinking that, yeah,
400
00:22:06,759 --> 00:22:08,392
this actually is
something to follow.
401
00:22:09,996 --> 00:22:11,662
These are
money-driven organizations
402
00:22:11,764 --> 00:22:12,963
at the end of the day,
403
00:22:14,701 --> 00:22:16,567
and it looks
as though Joe may
404
00:22:16,669 --> 00:22:18,302
have been in deep
to these people.
405
00:22:27,580 --> 00:22:29,113
In the brutal double homicide
406
00:22:29,215 --> 00:22:31,148
of Joe and Olga connell,
407
00:22:31,250 --> 00:22:33,918
police are working a new
theory that the newlyweds
408
00:22:34,020 --> 00:22:36,854
could have been killed
by outlaw motorcycle gang,
409
00:22:36,956 --> 00:22:38,122
the pagans.
410
00:22:38,224 --> 00:22:40,758
Talking to different
friends and family members,
411
00:22:40,860 --> 00:22:42,593
we found out,
while Joe was in prison,
412
00:22:42,695 --> 00:22:45,696
he became acquainted with
the pagans motorcycle club,
413
00:22:45,798 --> 00:22:48,265
um, and they became close,
414
00:22:48,368 --> 00:22:51,035
and Joe would associate
with the pagans.
415
00:22:52,405 --> 00:22:57,108
He loved all of them because
they were a group of riders.
416
00:22:57,210 --> 00:23:00,945
When he came out of prison,
they liked to ride together,
417
00:23:03,082 --> 00:23:04,215
I knew a couple of 'em,
418
00:23:04,317 --> 00:23:07,685
and one of 'em that really
was a good friend of Joe's.
419
00:23:09,489 --> 00:23:10,855
Through their law
enforcement sources,
420
00:23:12,592 --> 00:23:16,060
the police check the pagans
to see if there was any beef
421
00:23:16,162 --> 00:23:17,528
with Joe,
422
00:23:17,630 --> 00:23:19,797
and they assured
the police "no, there's --
423
00:23:19,899 --> 00:23:23,200
we've got no problem
with Joe connell."
424
00:23:23,302 --> 00:23:25,169
But could this be a lie
425
00:23:25,271 --> 00:23:27,671
being fed to them
by lower level gang members?
426
00:23:27,774 --> 00:23:29,540
We were able to
get in touch
427
00:23:29,642 --> 00:23:32,443
with a member of that club
who held
428
00:23:32,545 --> 00:23:34,612
an authoritative-type position.
429
00:23:36,249 --> 00:23:37,415
He reiterated to US
430
00:23:37,517 --> 00:23:40,651
that Joe was a friend of
several of the members there,
431
00:23:40,753 --> 00:23:42,486
but that they had nothing
to do with his death,
432
00:23:42,588 --> 00:23:45,589
that they were as taken
aback by it as everyone else.
433
00:23:46,959 --> 00:23:49,760
So we were able to close
the book on that,
434
00:23:49,862 --> 00:23:51,095
at least for
the time being.
435
00:23:53,399 --> 00:23:55,299
With the pagans
lead eliminated,
436
00:23:55,401 --> 00:23:57,668
the investigation
into the double homicide
437
00:23:57,770 --> 00:24:00,671
of Joe and Olga connell
hits a wall.
438
00:24:02,708 --> 00:24:04,809
People that live
in Wilmington and around
439
00:24:04,911 --> 00:24:07,144
Wilmington were worried
about all these shootings.
440
00:24:08,548 --> 00:24:12,783
Two people ended up dead in
front of their condo building,
441
00:24:12,885 --> 00:24:15,386
and these killers were still
walking the streets.
442
00:24:17,857 --> 00:24:19,590
There's the pressure
you put on yourself,
443
00:24:19,692 --> 00:24:23,928
and also the pressure from
these external factors.
444
00:24:24,030 --> 00:24:26,130
When it comes to narrowing
down the suspect,
445
00:24:26,232 --> 00:24:29,333
we're working through
these theories that we have.
446
00:24:29,435 --> 00:24:31,769
Eventually, one of these is
gonna lead to something.
447
00:24:33,873 --> 00:24:36,907
Police widen the scope
of their investigation,
448
00:24:37,009 --> 00:24:39,043
looking at anyone
in the connells' lives
449
00:24:39,145 --> 00:24:42,246
they may have missed who had
motive to want them dead.
450
00:24:42,348 --> 00:24:44,615
We also sent out
a media request saying,
451
00:24:44,717 --> 00:24:46,417
"hey, anything you guys
know about these people,
452
00:24:46,519 --> 00:24:47,618
can you please call US?"
453
00:24:49,622 --> 00:24:52,590
We were getting anonymous
tips about a guy named Harry.
454
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,093
He knew Joe.
455
00:24:56,195 --> 00:24:58,128
He would be up at
cns automotive,
456
00:24:58,231 --> 00:25:00,698
Chris and Joe's auto shop,
from time to time.
457
00:25:02,201 --> 00:25:04,735
Searching Harry's
name in their database,
458
00:25:04,837 --> 00:25:08,105
detectives discover
he has a long rap sheet.
459
00:25:08,174 --> 00:25:13,711
Harry cook does have, in fact,
history with criminal activity,
460
00:25:13,813 --> 00:25:17,781
and also he lives really close
to the scene of these homicides.
461
00:25:19,652 --> 00:25:21,852
So we focus our attention
on him.
462
00:25:24,023 --> 00:25:25,956
With Harry
in their crosshairs,
463
00:25:26,058 --> 00:25:28,592
police haul him down to
the station for questioning.
464
00:25:30,663 --> 00:25:33,130
It started off
a little adversarial,
465
00:25:33,232 --> 00:25:36,233
and Harry cook tells US,
"I'm not speaking to you."
466
00:25:36,335 --> 00:25:40,037
We need to figure out
what's happening
467
00:25:40,139 --> 00:25:41,872
and figure out
his whereabouts
468
00:25:41,974 --> 00:25:43,574
around the time
of this homicide.
469
00:25:46,212 --> 00:25:47,778
We ultimately end up
with a search warrant
470
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,148
of his house
and his phone records,
471
00:25:51,250 --> 00:25:53,584
but there's nothing that's
really out of the ordinary.
472
00:25:55,021 --> 00:25:56,587
The search doesn't
turn up anything
473
00:25:56,689 --> 00:25:58,155
connected to the murders.
474
00:25:58,257 --> 00:25:59,924
Looking for more information,
475
00:26:00,026 --> 00:26:02,660
investigators
question Harry's girlfriend.
476
00:26:02,762 --> 00:26:05,863
And she says, "look,
I don't really know a lot
477
00:26:05,965 --> 00:26:07,097
"about Harry's
business dealings,
478
00:26:07,199 --> 00:26:09,199
"but I do know on the day
that Joe and Olga were killed,
479
00:26:09,302 --> 00:26:10,367
Harry was in Pittsburgh."
480
00:26:10,469 --> 00:26:12,570
He went up there
with some friends
481
00:26:12,672 --> 00:26:14,672
to watch
a steelers game.
482
00:26:14,774 --> 00:26:17,741
So we trekked up to Pittsburgh,
found him on video,
483
00:26:17,843 --> 00:26:20,444
and realized, okay,
this guy has this alibi.
484
00:26:22,081 --> 00:26:24,415
Once Harry is
cleared as a suspect,
485
00:26:24,517 --> 00:26:26,784
he agrees to cooperate
with detectives.
486
00:26:28,487 --> 00:26:31,655
He was really forthcoming with
information about what he knew.
487
00:26:33,125 --> 00:26:36,060
He told US that he was
an investor in cns automotive.
488
00:26:36,162 --> 00:26:39,496
He invested over $150,000
into that business.
489
00:26:41,100 --> 00:26:42,399
He told the police
490
00:26:42,501 --> 00:26:44,268
Chris is always looking
for partners to
491
00:26:44,370 --> 00:26:47,438
put cash infusion
into the shop.
492
00:26:47,540 --> 00:26:50,741
His father put 325,000
into the business.
493
00:26:54,513 --> 00:26:56,914
Detectives
question why Chris rivers,
494
00:26:57,016 --> 00:26:59,249
who's running
a successful business,
495
00:26:59,352 --> 00:27:01,285
would be in need
of so much cash.
496
00:27:03,322 --> 00:27:05,589
Harry said that Chris
was blowing through money,
497
00:27:05,691 --> 00:27:07,958
because he was buying drugs.
498
00:27:08,060 --> 00:27:10,828
He's spending,
by some accounts,
499
00:27:10,963 --> 00:27:15,032
like $4,000 a week, just on
prescription painkillers.
500
00:27:15,134 --> 00:27:16,467
He was doing a lot of 'em,
501
00:27:16,569 --> 00:27:19,269
100 oxycodone pills,
like, twice a week,
502
00:27:19,372 --> 00:27:20,904
and sometimes cocaine.
503
00:27:22,341 --> 00:27:25,009
So Chris had
a very expensive drug habit,
504
00:27:25,111 --> 00:27:27,344
and he had a habit of
not paying his bills.
505
00:27:28,981 --> 00:27:31,815
He had debts, and he owed
a lot of people a lot of money.
506
00:27:33,653 --> 00:27:35,052
He always told everyone
Joe connell
507
00:27:35,154 --> 00:27:37,454
was spending everything,
living lavishly,
508
00:27:37,556 --> 00:27:39,957
going out to eat,
buying expensive Mercedes.
509
00:27:41,761 --> 00:27:43,260
When in actuality,
Chris rivers
510
00:27:43,362 --> 00:27:45,262
was the one spending
all the money.
511
00:27:47,566 --> 00:27:49,667
As investigators
comb through the automotive
512
00:27:49,769 --> 00:27:51,268
shop's financials,
513
00:27:51,370 --> 00:27:53,203
they make a crucial
new discovery.
514
00:27:55,341 --> 00:27:58,542
We found that there was
a large insurance policy
515
00:27:58,644 --> 00:28:00,377
that Chris
and Joe connell
516
00:28:00,479 --> 00:28:02,680
placed on one another
for the business.
517
00:28:04,050 --> 00:28:06,016
So they essentially
insured one another
518
00:28:06,118 --> 00:28:09,353
that if something happened
to one, the other would be paid.
519
00:28:11,323 --> 00:28:13,457
The life insurance policy
that Chris rivers
520
00:28:13,559 --> 00:28:15,926
had on Joe connell
was for a $1,000,000.
521
00:28:18,964 --> 00:28:21,699
Stockdale: Chris is reported
to have a significant debt.
522
00:28:21,801 --> 00:28:25,602
It's possible that he could
resort to desperate measures
523
00:28:25,705 --> 00:28:27,504
in an effort to pay this debt
524
00:28:27,606 --> 00:28:31,241
or to obtain even more
financial resources.
525
00:28:32,878 --> 00:28:34,311
It certainly
wouldn't be beyond
526
00:28:34,413 --> 00:28:37,548
the realm of possibility
for somebody to kill
527
00:28:37,650 --> 00:28:39,750
to obtain that money.
528
00:28:39,852 --> 00:28:42,119
Police can now see
a clear motive for Chris
529
00:28:42,221 --> 00:28:44,988
to kill his partner, Joe --
money.
530
00:28:45,091 --> 00:28:48,992
Harry said that several months
before, Chris was visibly upset,
531
00:28:49,095 --> 00:28:50,928
even crying,
he was angry,
532
00:28:51,030 --> 00:28:53,630
and he went on about how Joe
was taking money, and Chris
533
00:28:53,733 --> 00:28:55,532
couldn't pay the mortgage,
and he couldn't
534
00:28:55,634 --> 00:28:58,635
buy food for his kid and
kind of, like, doom and gloom.
535
00:28:58,738 --> 00:29:02,372
Chris had been bad mouthing
Joe a lot.
536
00:29:02,475 --> 00:29:04,208
Then Harry says
that Chris makes
537
00:29:04,310 --> 00:29:05,809
this really odd comment to him.
538
00:29:08,647 --> 00:29:10,514
He says, "I'm just gonna
have Joe killed."
539
00:29:18,023 --> 00:29:21,158
After a series of
false starts and dead ends,
540
00:29:21,260 --> 00:29:24,561
investigators circle back to
a previous suspect in Olga
541
00:29:24,663 --> 00:29:26,296
and Joe connells' murder,
542
00:29:26,398 --> 00:29:29,166
Joe's business partner,
Chris rivers.
543
00:29:30,503 --> 00:29:32,102
Chris rivers
was interesting,
544
00:29:32,204 --> 00:29:36,240
because there was money
and greed, drugs.
545
00:29:36,342 --> 00:29:38,909
But we have good information
that he is at home
546
00:29:39,011 --> 00:29:40,511
when the homicide happens.
547
00:29:40,646 --> 00:29:43,480
You always have to keep that
in your mind
548
00:29:43,582 --> 00:29:45,482
that I don't want to get
too far down
549
00:29:45,584 --> 00:29:48,819
this rabbit hole when
we should be over here,
550
00:29:48,921 --> 00:29:51,054
looking at
other possibilities.
551
00:29:55,161 --> 00:29:57,094
Looking for evidence
connecting Chris to
552
00:29:57,196 --> 00:29:59,730
the connells' murders,
police conduct a search
553
00:29:59,832 --> 00:30:01,899
of Joe and Chris's
automotive shop.
554
00:30:04,570 --> 00:30:05,869
We find steroids in the shop.
555
00:30:07,773 --> 00:30:10,207
And then Chris comes back
to our police station.
556
00:30:12,144 --> 00:30:13,811
Chris rivers described
557
00:30:13,913 --> 00:30:15,779
the steroids that were
at the shop as being Joe's.
558
00:30:15,881 --> 00:30:18,081
He specifically told US
that they were there.
559
00:30:18,184 --> 00:30:20,150
Then he said,
560
00:30:20,252 --> 00:30:22,085
"I told him to get that stuff
out of the shop,
561
00:30:22,188 --> 00:30:23,987
but he keeps selling it,
and..."
562
00:30:26,125 --> 00:30:28,959
The decision
had been made amongst US
563
00:30:29,061 --> 00:30:31,495
that we're gonna
charge Chris with the possession
564
00:30:31,597 --> 00:30:33,630
of these steroids
that were in his shop.
565
00:30:33,732 --> 00:30:35,699
So I informed him of that,
566
00:30:35,801 --> 00:30:37,935
and he requests
an attorney and says,
567
00:30:38,037 --> 00:30:39,236
"I'm not talking to
you anymore."
568
00:30:41,740 --> 00:30:43,574
With Chris refusing to talk,
569
00:30:43,676 --> 00:30:47,010
investigators subpoena
his cellphone records.
570
00:30:47,112 --> 00:30:49,813
They uncover calls
and text messages deleted
571
00:30:49,915 --> 00:30:51,849
around the time of
the connells' murders.
572
00:30:53,919 --> 00:30:55,953
We have Chris's call detail
records, who he was calling,
573
00:30:56,055 --> 00:30:57,588
who he was texting.
574
00:30:57,723 --> 00:31:00,257
Chris had deleted a lot of
575
00:31:00,359 --> 00:31:04,528
communication between he
and an unknown phone number.
576
00:31:06,065 --> 00:31:08,432
We've learned that that
number is associated
577
00:31:08,534 --> 00:31:09,867
with a guy named
Joshua bey.
578
00:31:11,437 --> 00:31:13,036
Joshua bey
and Chris rivers are texting
579
00:31:13,138 --> 00:31:15,105
back and forth
prior to the homicide.
580
00:31:17,276 --> 00:31:19,443
Digging into
Joshua bey's background,
581
00:31:19,545 --> 00:31:22,646
investigators learn
he has a checkered past.
582
00:31:24,783 --> 00:31:27,351
He's a felon
who had gun convictions.
583
00:31:27,453 --> 00:31:29,152
Most recently,
he was on probation for
584
00:31:29,255 --> 00:31:30,420
passing counterfeit
585
00:31:30,522 --> 00:31:33,757
$100 bills at the casino
south of Wilmington.
586
00:31:35,461 --> 00:31:36,860
When you look at
the cases in which
587
00:31:36,962 --> 00:31:39,830
he was involved in, he always
made some sort of deal.
588
00:31:39,932 --> 00:31:43,800
He always offered up some sort
of information to help him,
589
00:31:43,903 --> 00:31:46,536
and we thought maybe that
would be beneficial to US.
590
00:31:49,541 --> 00:31:51,041
Detectives
haul Joshua bey
591
00:31:51,143 --> 00:31:53,043
down to the station
for questioning.
592
00:31:55,648 --> 00:31:57,180
The first time
I talk to Josh,
593
00:31:57,283 --> 00:31:58,215
I just want to know,
594
00:31:58,317 --> 00:32:00,851
"hey, man, how do you know
Chris rivers?
595
00:32:00,953 --> 00:32:02,719
Do you know Chris rivers?"
596
00:32:02,821 --> 00:32:04,087
You know, we couldn't even
get past that.
597
00:32:04,189 --> 00:32:05,489
"No, I have
no idea who he is."
598
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,928
Then he said,
"he's my mechanic."
599
00:32:11,030 --> 00:32:13,830
"Okay, why were you talking
to him at 11 o'clock at night
600
00:32:13,933 --> 00:32:15,399
on the 21st?"
601
00:32:15,501 --> 00:32:17,167
"I must a butt-dialed him."
602
00:32:17,269 --> 00:32:19,069
So they go to bat.
603
00:32:19,171 --> 00:32:22,439
"But why did you call him
several times the night of
604
00:32:22,541 --> 00:32:24,908
this murder?
And he called you, too."
605
00:32:25,010 --> 00:32:27,611
Bey comes back
and has another story.
606
00:32:30,182 --> 00:32:33,817
So the police say, "well, then
that's not true either, is it?"
607
00:32:33,919 --> 00:32:35,485
He essentially lied
repeatedly
608
00:32:35,587 --> 00:32:37,387
to sergeant Leonard
during that interview,
609
00:32:38,757 --> 00:32:40,857
and he was charged with
providing a false statement.
610
00:32:43,228 --> 00:32:45,662
Then he admits
that he sells Chris pills
611
00:32:45,764 --> 00:32:47,097
and sometimes cocaine.
612
00:32:49,134 --> 00:32:52,169
Believing Chris and
Joshua were working together,
613
00:32:52,271 --> 00:32:54,838
investigators dig into
Joshua's phone records,
614
00:32:54,940 --> 00:32:57,374
looking for evidence
of a conspiracy.
615
00:32:57,476 --> 00:32:58,709
On the night of
the murders, you see
616
00:32:58,811 --> 00:33:00,978
Chris rivers
communicating with Josh bey,
617
00:33:02,548 --> 00:33:03,580
and Josh bey,
in turn,
618
00:33:03,682 --> 00:33:05,515
communicating
with someone else.
619
00:33:05,617 --> 00:33:07,017
And that number came back
620
00:33:07,119 --> 00:33:09,086
to a guy
named Dominique Benson.
621
00:33:09,188 --> 00:33:11,855
Dominique was known to
law enforcement and to other
622
00:33:11,957 --> 00:33:14,591
people around Wilmington as
being a contract hit man.
623
00:33:16,762 --> 00:33:19,062
Investigators
also learn that hit man
624
00:33:19,164 --> 00:33:20,597
Dominique often worked
625
00:33:20,699 --> 00:33:22,632
with another man
named Aaron Thompson.
626
00:33:26,005 --> 00:33:28,538
He said, "there are
two paid assassins
627
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:32,442
that will do hits
for $10,000 apiece."
628
00:33:34,513 --> 00:33:39,282
And he had named Benson
and Thompson as these guys.
629
00:33:42,821 --> 00:33:45,255
Working to establish
there was a conspiracy to kill
630
00:33:45,357 --> 00:33:48,291
the connells, investigators
also searched through
631
00:33:48,394 --> 00:33:50,093
Dominique Benson's
phone records.
632
00:33:52,598 --> 00:33:55,065
We found this communication
between all these people
633
00:33:55,167 --> 00:33:57,234
that we're talking about
up to this point --
634
00:33:57,336 --> 00:34:02,005
Joe, Chris, Josh, Dominique --
is all in here.
635
00:34:02,107 --> 00:34:03,940
You see that
636
00:34:04,043 --> 00:34:07,744
after Joe talks to Chris,
and Chris talks to Josh,
637
00:34:07,846 --> 00:34:11,048
Josh talks to dom --
dom then calls the guy
638
00:34:11,150 --> 00:34:12,249
named Aaron Thompson.
639
00:34:12,351 --> 00:34:15,352
The information was all
starting to kind of
640
00:34:15,454 --> 00:34:16,720
come together,
641
00:34:16,822 --> 00:34:21,058
but it all hinged upon
Josh putting context to
642
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:22,459
this conversation.
643
00:34:22,561 --> 00:34:24,094
The only person
that sat right in
644
00:34:24,196 --> 00:34:26,463
the middle of all this
was Joshua bey.
645
00:34:26,565 --> 00:34:28,732
He'd be able to tie the front
and the back end together
646
00:34:28,834 --> 00:34:32,002
for US, but Josh isn't
moving on his position
647
00:34:32,104 --> 00:34:34,871
that he does not have
any information to offer.
648
00:34:34,973 --> 00:34:36,373
So we're dead in the water
649
00:34:36,475 --> 00:34:38,275
from this point forward
unless Joshua bey
650
00:34:38,377 --> 00:34:39,509
can provide US
some information.
651
00:34:46,752 --> 00:34:49,319
Investigators suspect
Olga and Joe connell
652
00:34:49,421 --> 00:34:51,988
were killed in a conspiracy
masterminded by
653
00:34:52,091 --> 00:34:54,357
Joe's business partner,
Chris rivers,
654
00:34:54,460 --> 00:34:58,995
to collect on a $1 million
life insurance policy.
655
00:34:59,098 --> 00:35:01,431
Rivers' acquaintance,
Joshua bey,
656
00:35:01,533 --> 00:35:03,834
is key to cracking the case,
657
00:35:03,936 --> 00:35:05,769
but police
can't get him to talk.
658
00:35:09,341 --> 00:35:11,875
Frequently,
the low-hanging fruit, or,
659
00:35:11,977 --> 00:35:13,910
in this case,
somebody in the middle,
660
00:35:14,012 --> 00:35:15,645
if you can get
to them first,
661
00:35:15,747 --> 00:35:19,182
you can work the chain of
the conspiracy up from there.
662
00:35:21,854 --> 00:35:24,254
So we are preparing
for Josh bey's
663
00:35:24,356 --> 00:35:26,923
providing a false statement
to law enforcement trial.
664
00:35:27,025 --> 00:35:29,092
Sergeant breslin and I
went up to the courthouse
665
00:35:29,194 --> 00:35:31,328
to process Josh
on his arrest warrant.
666
00:35:33,732 --> 00:35:34,931
At the courthouse,
667
00:35:35,033 --> 00:35:37,434
Josh offered US
basically a full confession
668
00:35:37,536 --> 00:35:41,004
in what his involvement was
in this entire incident.
669
00:35:41,106 --> 00:35:43,940
Josh finally
collapses and gives in to
670
00:35:44,042 --> 00:35:45,842
what we call
death by 1,000 cuts.
671
00:35:48,180 --> 00:35:51,781
The investigators in this case
were relentless, and ultimately,
672
00:35:51,884 --> 00:35:53,450
that proved to be
too much for this guy.
673
00:35:56,021 --> 00:35:59,422
When detectives
question Joshua bey, he says
674
00:35:59,525 --> 00:36:02,859
to understand his role
in Joe and Olga's murders,
675
00:36:02,961 --> 00:36:05,061
he has to go back
to when he met Chris.
676
00:36:10,135 --> 00:36:12,469
From time to time,
he would go to cns automotive
677
00:36:12,571 --> 00:36:14,004
to have his car worked on.
678
00:36:14,106 --> 00:36:17,607
Josh had been in a car accident,
had been prescribed oxycodone.
679
00:36:18,977 --> 00:36:21,144
Chris says something to Josh
to the effect of,
680
00:36:21,246 --> 00:36:22,846
"hey, do you sell those?"
681
00:36:22,948 --> 00:36:24,814
Josh says,
"yeah, these are prescribed.
682
00:36:24,917 --> 00:36:26,349
I can get you
whatever you need."
683
00:36:26,451 --> 00:36:27,784
They begin to forge
this relationship
684
00:36:27,886 --> 00:36:29,686
based solely upon the sale
of drugs.
685
00:36:31,256 --> 00:36:33,590
Over the years,
Chris starts confiding
686
00:36:33,692 --> 00:36:36,159
in Joshua about
his business partnership.
687
00:36:38,730 --> 00:36:41,131
Chris says,
"Joe steals money.
688
00:36:41,233 --> 00:36:43,800
Joe doesn't come to work.
Joe drives fancy cars.
689
00:36:45,837 --> 00:36:47,837
Then Chris asked Josh something
to the effect of
690
00:36:47,940 --> 00:36:49,940
"hey, you know
anybody that could
691
00:36:50,042 --> 00:36:52,075
take him out?"
692
00:36:52,177 --> 00:36:55,579
And Josh says,
"I was a little taken aback,
693
00:36:55,681 --> 00:36:58,215
"wondering if they're
trying to set me up,
694
00:36:58,317 --> 00:37:00,350
so I laugh it off."
695
00:37:00,452 --> 00:37:04,487
Then a couple months later,
Chris says, "no, I'm serious."
696
00:37:04,556 --> 00:37:06,223
"What are we talking about?
697
00:37:06,325 --> 00:37:08,058
I'll pay whatever."
698
00:37:08,193 --> 00:37:11,661
Chris and Josh
go back and forth on price,
699
00:37:11,763 --> 00:37:14,431
and Josh tells US that he went
so far as to ask Chris, "well,
700
00:37:14,533 --> 00:37:16,199
why do we have to kill Olga?"
701
00:37:16,301 --> 00:37:19,436
And he says that Chris said,
"I don't know what will
702
00:37:19,538 --> 00:37:20,837
"they have --
I want to make sure
703
00:37:20,939 --> 00:37:22,505
she doesn't get
half this business."
704
00:37:24,276 --> 00:37:26,309
Ultimately, they decide
that Dominique's gonna
705
00:37:26,411 --> 00:37:27,944
do the killing
with Aaron Thompson.
706
00:37:29,648 --> 00:37:31,982
From that point on, Joe and
Olga became more or less hunted.
707
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,186
Joshua reveals
that prior to the murder,
708
00:37:36,288 --> 00:37:38,922
Chris orchestrated the break-in
at the connells' home,
709
00:37:39,024 --> 00:37:40,523
then worked
to shift the blame.
710
00:37:44,563 --> 00:37:46,830
He had Josh bey
burglarize Joe's home,
711
00:37:48,967 --> 00:37:50,900
and then Chris had
a burner phone,
712
00:37:51,003 --> 00:37:55,272
and he was sending these
threatening texts from "me"
713
00:37:55,374 --> 00:37:58,241
to Joe and Olga
to the point
714
00:37:58,343 --> 00:38:00,877
where they tried to get
a restraining order.
715
00:38:02,648 --> 00:38:05,382
Chris was fueling this fight
between Joe and I.
716
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:09,986
I didn't know
all this was going on.
717
00:38:11,456 --> 00:38:13,023
With Joshua's confession,
718
00:38:13,125 --> 00:38:15,225
detectives are now
able to fill in
719
00:38:15,327 --> 00:38:19,963
the final 24 hours of Joe
and Olga connell's lives.
720
00:38:20,065 --> 00:38:22,699
Josh says on the day of
the actual killing,
721
00:38:22,801 --> 00:38:23,800
he reaches out to Chris.
722
00:38:23,902 --> 00:38:25,402
Chris says something to him
723
00:38:25,504 --> 00:38:27,304
like, "tonight's the night.
Seven o'clock,
724
00:38:27,406 --> 00:38:28,672
they're going out
to a restaurant."
725
00:38:30,042 --> 00:38:32,842
On September 21st
at 7 P.M.,
726
00:38:32,944 --> 00:38:34,577
the connells head out
to celebrate
727
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,413
Olga's birthday
with friends.
728
00:38:38,583 --> 00:38:41,117
So at 8 P.M.,
Chris is at the shop.
729
00:38:41,219 --> 00:38:43,553
He texts Joe to find out
if they're at dinner,
730
00:38:43,655 --> 00:38:46,890
and Chris talked about that
he would actually go,
731
00:38:49,528 --> 00:38:50,627
but then, at 11,
732
00:38:50,729 --> 00:38:53,930
Chris arrived home with
his food for his girlfriend.
733
00:38:55,634 --> 00:38:57,967
At 11:38,
Joe texts and says look,
734
00:38:58,070 --> 00:38:59,703
"we're gonna
stay about another hour.
735
00:38:59,805 --> 00:39:01,604
We're having a good time."
736
00:39:01,707 --> 00:39:07,877
At 11:43, 5 minutes after Joe
texts Chris, Chris texts bey,
737
00:39:07,979 --> 00:39:10,947
and then bey follows up
with a text to Benson,
738
00:39:11,083 --> 00:39:14,784
and Benson follows up with
a text to Aaron Thompson.
739
00:39:14,886 --> 00:39:17,354
So they're all on the same
page before the murders.
740
00:39:18,724 --> 00:39:21,558
Olga and Joe
leave the restaurant at 1 A.M.
741
00:39:21,660 --> 00:39:22,759
And head straight home.
742
00:39:24,963 --> 00:39:26,329
At 1:15,
they arrive home.
743
00:39:28,100 --> 00:39:29,733
They walk up to the door.
744
00:39:29,835 --> 00:39:32,969
Olga puts her keys into
the lock and goes to open it.
745
00:39:34,773 --> 00:39:37,240
And someone started firing.
746
00:39:37,342 --> 00:39:39,843
Joe tried to take off.
Someone ran after him...
747
00:39:42,180 --> 00:39:45,048
And shot at him,
got him down,
748
00:39:45,150 --> 00:39:47,250
and then fired point blank
in the back of his head.
749
00:39:53,925 --> 00:39:55,792
It was horrible.
750
00:39:55,894 --> 00:39:58,027
He died hatin' me.
751
00:39:58,130 --> 00:39:59,562
Yeah.
752
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:02,699
It's the worst.
753
00:40:03,902 --> 00:40:06,770
My family really believed
for a long time
754
00:40:06,872 --> 00:40:08,705
that I had something
to do with this.
755
00:40:10,108 --> 00:40:12,142
That really hurts me.
756
00:40:12,244 --> 00:40:14,277
It was awful.
757
00:40:16,615 --> 00:40:18,715
Chris had all of US fooled.
758
00:40:20,619 --> 00:40:23,219
At the end, he took the heart
of our family away from US.
759
00:40:26,992 --> 00:40:29,092
Joshua bey,
the middleman,
760
00:40:29,194 --> 00:40:31,494
pleads guilty to conspiracy
761
00:40:31,596 --> 00:40:33,296
and is sentenced
to five years.
762
00:40:33,398 --> 00:40:35,665
Hitman Aaron Thompson is
763
00:40:35,767 --> 00:40:38,468
convicted of two counts
of first-degree murder.
764
00:40:38,570 --> 00:40:42,739
He's sentenced to two life
sentences plus 45 years.
765
00:40:42,841 --> 00:40:45,108
His partner,
Dominique Benson,
766
00:40:45,210 --> 00:40:47,777
receives five years
for conspiracy.
767
00:40:47,879 --> 00:40:50,680
These guys were foolish enough
to use their own phones,
768
00:40:50,782 --> 00:40:52,248
but thankfully for US, they did,
769
00:40:52,350 --> 00:40:55,685
because taking the evidence
that we have and meshing them
770
00:40:55,787 --> 00:40:57,620
into this timeline,
771
00:40:57,689 --> 00:40:59,956
we were able to push
the whole thing together
772
00:41:00,058 --> 00:41:02,792
and see it through
to successful prosecution.
773
00:41:02,894 --> 00:41:06,629
Finally, mastermind
Chris rivers is convicted of
774
00:41:06,731 --> 00:41:10,366
conspiracy and two counts
of first-degree murder.
775
00:41:10,469 --> 00:41:13,703
He's sentenced
to two life sentences,
776
00:41:13,805 --> 00:41:14,871
plus 50 years.
777
00:41:14,973 --> 00:41:17,874
This crime, I think,
speaks to, number one,
778
00:41:17,976 --> 00:41:22,078
the psychopathic undercurrent
that was driving him,
779
00:41:22,214 --> 00:41:25,448
but number two,
entitlement and greed,
780
00:41:25,550 --> 00:41:27,784
and there's really
no other way to slice it.
781
00:41:29,888 --> 00:41:34,090
I want people
to remember Joe and Olga
782
00:41:34,192 --> 00:41:36,759
and about the tragedy
that happened to them
783
00:41:36,862 --> 00:41:40,497
and how horrific it was --
it was a massacre.
784
00:41:42,167 --> 00:41:44,767
I want everybody to know
that the type of person
785
00:41:44,870 --> 00:41:47,070
that created this murder
786
00:41:47,172 --> 00:41:49,038
is a devil.
787
00:41:50,675 --> 00:41:52,008
It's good
to know that there's
788
00:41:52,110 --> 00:41:53,877
some sort of closure
for their family.
789
00:41:53,979 --> 00:41:56,246
It's not hanging unsolved,
790
00:41:56,348 --> 00:41:59,349
but it'll never
heal the wound of it all.
791
00:42:01,720 --> 00:42:03,953
When you love somebody,
make sure you tell them
792
00:42:04,055 --> 00:42:06,623
you love them,
make up with everybody.
793
00:42:06,725 --> 00:42:09,492
Don't go to sleep angry.
794
00:42:09,594 --> 00:42:13,062
You might never
get the chance again...
795
00:42:13,164 --> 00:42:15,532
You know, to tell them
you love them.
796
00:42:17,702 --> 00:42:19,536
That's a hard thing
to deal with.
797
00:42:21,273 --> 00:42:23,406
Kelly and I are
very close now.
798
00:42:23,508 --> 00:42:26,976
Went through a whole lot,
and thank god,
799
00:42:27,078 --> 00:42:31,648
but we miss everything
about Joe and Olga.
