[Music]

this program is about unsolved mysteries

whenever possible the actual family

members and police officials have

participated in recreating the events

what you're about to see is not a news

broadcast

[Music]

summer 1977

in the city of new york year-long

nightmare was coming to an end

on august 10th a man named david

berkowitz was arrested

police believe that he was a lone gunman

behind the son of sam killings a brutal

series of shootings that had left six

people dead and seven seriously injured

the media rejoiced

the elusive son of sam was behind bars

or was he

the general perception among the public

for years had been that david berkowitz

was a lone gunman

the facts and the evidence not

speculation the facts and the evidence

say otherwise

in 1977 the nation believed the son of

sam murders were solved

in the last 11 years reporter maury

terry has collected convincing evidence

that david berkowitz did not act alone

tonight we examine terry's theory and

present other mysteries where you may be

able to help

and a tiny baptist church in rural

georgia a deacon and his wife were the

victims of a double murder

the killer dropped a pair of glasses

that may lead to his identity

and from omaha nebraska a poignant story

of unrequited love a frugal bachelor who

left an unclaimed fortune of 200

thousand dollars

someone watching tonight may be his heir

join me

you

may be able to help solve a mystery

[Music]

son of sam's reign of terror began on

july 29 1976

it occurred in an area in the bronx

called pelham bay

the time was 1 10 am

[Music]

two young girls were hit by 44 caliber

bullets one died

a composite sketch of the gunman was

created from the survivor's eyewitness

description

on october 23rd in the borough of queens

another 44 caliber shooting occurred

a man suffered a serious head

injury a month later again in queens two

girls stood on a stoop talking

a man appeared out of the shadows

both survived but one would be confined

to a wheelchair for the rest of her life

eyewitnesses were able to help police in

creating a new composite of the gunman

[Music]

1977

two separate shootings took the lives of

two women

as in the earlier attacks a 44 caliber

bulldog revolver was used

eyewitnesses created two more composites

of the killer

they showed a very different face from

the earlier drawings each appeared to be

a different person

[Music]

on april 17 1977 another shooting

occurred again in the pelham bay section

of the bronx just three blocks from the

scene of the first shooting

this time a hand printed letter was left

at the scene it read quote

i am a monster i am the son of sam

i'm a little brat

the city was paralyzed with fear

the people in the local neighborhoods

particularly in the bronx were petrified

i remember people yelling

to people in the street get in that nuts

out there and this is an

early afternoon

no one double parked their cars

uh business at the local entertainment

places such as bars restaurants

will knill no one went out on memorial

day another letter from the son of sam

was sent to columnist jimmy breslin

written in the same distinctive style it

contained taunts and references to

satanism

finally on july 31st son of sam struck

for the last time

stacey moskowitz was killed her date

robert violante partially blinded

that guy came over

to the car and blew those people away in

less than four seconds like

you know you pre you press the trigger

and then both would you know

both could have died luckily robin's

alive

but

i'll never forget it

zayno gave police a description of the

shooter

another composite was created showing

the gunman

again there were more differences and

similarities when compared to the

earlier drawings

one of them would to look like

david berkowitz the others did not

resemble them at all it was completely

different

uh i thought it was rather strange

although we know that these drawings are

done by victims or witnesses who see the

killer for a brief period of time

and then a day or two or several hours

later they have to go to a police

department artist and he has to put that

on paper that's a very difficult thing

to do so many times these sketches are

not very accurate so i thought perhaps

maybe that's why we saw so many

different versions of the son of sam

on the composites

in their investigation of the moscowitz

shooting

police discovered a parking ticket had

been issued near the scene to a ford

galaxy owned by a postal employee named

david berkowitz

right back into the park

the police traced this ticket to

berkowitz's home

as they approached the building they saw

the car they spotted a duffel bag with

what looked like a rifle but protruding

through the opening automatic rifle

when they entered the car they found a

letter threatening another attack

it was signed

son of sam john look at this we got him

let's get back to these uh

the police staked out the ford galaxy

waiting for its owner to emerge

[Music]

at 10 p.m berkowitz walked to the car

inside the brown paper bag he was

carrying there was a 44-caliber revolver

as detectives moved into

he sat in his fort galaxy

almost passively

what took you guys so long step out of

the car

berkowitz confessed to all of the

shootings

he told the police that he received his

orders to commit the crimes from the

barking dog of an elderly neighbor named

sam carr

berkowitz pleaded guilty to all the

charges against him

he was sentenced to 25 years to life in

new york's attica prison

but to maury terry his confession seemed

too convenient

after the arrest of berkowitz uh just

through fate or whatever i started

poking around into the case because i

had some suspicions that uh

maybe there was more to it than the

public was being uh being led to believe

and that's when i started my own

investigation in into the case right

really the day after berkowitz got

arrested

maury terry believes that david

berkowitz did not act alone that he was

part of a gang of killers and it was the

killing of stacey moskowitz that first

aroused his suspicions

next we will go through a step-by-step

reconstruction of the events leading to

the killing of stacy moskowitz

mauri terry believes that this last

killing was deliberately planned and

executed not just by david berkowitz but

by at least three people

and he says that there is eyewitness

testimony to corroborate this theory

well the very early reports that um on

the moskowitz killing had me concerned

david berkowitz's resemblance his

features were widely different from the

sketches of the killer that had been

done by the police artist started

seeking out witnesses found tommy zayno

who was a key witness in the to the

shooting

tommy zano was with his girlfriend

parked on shore parkway in front of the

car that held stacy moskowitz and her

boyfriend

was looking through the mirror in the

car and i seen i noticed somebody you

know standing in the park

what i seen is he had long hair and it's

hard to really see the face but it was

he was then

he looked like he was in pretty good

shape

from looking through the mirror when he

was into the in the park

the guy who came over to the car

it's nice he walked up to the car like

as if he was gonna get in the car then

he went into a stance

shot and that was it

turned around and ran

i can't picture burka which run like

that

that's the thing that confused me after

they quote him if they seen him

as either he was he you know i in a week

he can't get that fat you know he that's

all i could say he's he's

you know he didn't look like the type of

guy run and do

that this is a map showing the

neighborhood where the last killing

occurred

stacy moskowitz and her boyfriend were

parked here

two blocks away on may 17th stream david

berkowitz received the incriminating

parking ticket on his ford galaxy parked

here

according to terry the events leading up

to the shooting began here at the shore

parkway entrance to the park at about

1am

witnesses saw a yellow volkswagen arrive

at the park entrance

two men emerged

this same car was seen fleeing the crime

scene after the shootings

30 minutes later tommy zano noticed the

yellow volkswagen drive past more than

once

a half hour later at 205 a policeman

issued a parking ticket to berkowitz's

ford galaxy

a neighborhood resident named cecilia

davis pulled up in a friend's car just

ahead of berkowitz's ford

she then said goodbye to her friend

we were triple parked

and i was looking in the in the back so

in case a car comes up

i saw

that guy taking the summons off his

windshield

and keep on looking watching the cops as

they still gave tickets

then he got in the car

and he came behind us

he couldn't pass because we were

blocking the whole street

and he blowed the horn at us

so i got out

and i took a look at him

more or less i gave him a dirty look

what's the percussion middle in the

night

cecilia has identified the man in the

car as david berkowitz

after she left her friend she saw

berkowitz drive up bay 17th street

and turn right on bath

following the police

the fact that david berkowitz

pulled up behind mrs davis and her date

as he did uh with the police car still

on the block or just pulling off the

block blaring his horn he would not be

doing something like that if he's the

elusive ingenious son of sam carrying

that 44 bulldog in his car he would he

would try to be as stealthy as possible

15 minutes after the parking ticket was

issued stacy moskowitz and robert

violante went for a late night stroll

as they walked in a nearby park stacy

and robert saw a man standing next to a

restroom watching

this restroom was over two blocks from

cecena davis's apartment

at 2 33 am

mrs davis returned to her apartment

after walking her dog

she saw david berkowitz the man who had

honked earlier walking straight towards

her

i know it was the same guy because i saw

him when i got out of the car for my

friend

i looked

at him because he blow their horn

cecilia saw berkowitz here

over two blocks away from where stacy

and robert were parked

approximately one minute later in her

apartment cecilia heard the sounds of

gunfire in the distance

those four shots killed stacey moskowitz

and almost blinded robert violante

how could berkowitz have traveled from

this spot where cecilia last saw him

to this area where stacy and robert were

shot in one minute

when it takes at least two and a half

minutes to briskly walk the two blocks

from bay 17th street to the park

just 15 seconds after the shooting

witnesses saw a man wearing a cheap

light-colored wig run out of the park

get into a yellow volkswagen and speed

away up 17th avenue

in his haste he ran a red light and

narrowly missed colliding with another

car

maury terry believes that at least three

people including david berkowitz were

involved in the moscowitz killing

he claims they were members of an

organized conspiracy responsible for

every single one of the son of sam

shootings

david berkowitz was selected to be the

fall guy on the son of sam killings

he was not a willing fall guy he wanted

it to be another way but berkowitz knew

that he had been involved in all the

shootings uh he has pulled the trigger

definitely two times responsible for

three murders he's not an innocent man

and was on the scene of all the others

as a lookout a wheel man whatever

so berkowitz was involved and berkowitz

knew he was guilty he also was

responsible for getting a parking ticket

on his car that night which also made

him susceptible to be the guy to be

picked out to take the fall and on top

of that the real killer escaped in the

yellow volkswagen and that person was

deemed more valuable to the conspirators

than david berkowitz was

no i didn't think it was david berkowitz

then and i don't think it's him now

i definitely don't think it's him it has

crossed my mind

and it's a strong opinion of mine that

david berkowitz was not the sole killer

and was aided

by other accomplices

we um

received information

that um

other people may have been involved

i had a statement made to me by someone

who allegedly spoke to david berkowitz

wherein david berkowitz is supposed to

have stated

that others were involved

new york prosecutor john santucci has

moved the status of the son of sam

investigation from inactive to active

next week we'll continue maury terry's

investigation

he has discovered that david berkowitz

and at least two friends were members of

a satanic cult

these two friends were brothers and

their father's name

was sam

next the poignant tale of curly green

for half a century he lived a solitary

frugal life in a tiny omaha apartment

when he died his friends were amazed

that he had amassed a 200 000 fortune

someone watching tonight may be his heir

[Music]

until ten years ago walter greene lived

alone in a small apartment near downtown

omaha

his nickname was curly and he lived a

simple frugal life

[Music]

he was cordial to his neighbors but kept

mostly to himself

on april 24 1978 curly green had a heart

attack

he died while working in his yard

everyone who knew him was astounded to

find that curly during his lifetime had

accumulated more than two hundred

thousand dollars

he left no will and his next of kin

could not be located

ten years after his death curly green's

fortune remains the largest unclaimed

estate in nebraska history

when it came out in the papers

that he

had the amount of money that they said

he had we were shocked

i can't imagine how he amassed that

amount

they found stock certificates i

understand they found a coin collection

and they found much to everyone's

surprise that curley actually owned the

apartment building where he was living

it is extraordinary that a man who lived

as simply as curly green could have

accrued such a large sum of money

it is even more extraordinary that the

money remains unclaimed

but this is not just a story of missing

airs and unclaimed fortunes

it is also a love story a sweden

haunting that began nearly eight decades

ago

[Music]

we don't know much about curly green's

early life

but we can surmise is this

when he was nearly 17 he hopped a train

bound for omaha

curly jumped off outside the city near a

small farming town called skyler

[Music]

curley immediately began to pound the

pavement looking for work

hal rominger a local tavern keeper saw

the young stranger and offered him not

only a ride but a home-cooked meal with

his family

[Music]

catherine the younger of the rummager

was then only nine years old

i don't know if my dad brought him

we suppose he came from denver we were

curious when he set up the table because

we'd never seen him before but he was a

nice looking young man

well i'll bet it's been quite some time

since you smelled cooking like this

curly well yeah a little while at dinner

curly was secretive about his family and

his birthplace in montana

where is your family curly

well i left my mom and my stepdad back

in denver and that's about all the

family i really have curly said he

hadn't gotten along with his stepfather

so he had traveled east

he had a very nice way of evading see

when mama asked him said didn't you have

some cousins or something he just said

well

i did once

and he

changed the subject and that's the way

curly was

and we respected him

for it

do you have any brothers or sisters

well

none as pretty as your daughters ma'am

the moment curly first saw jessamine

rominger catherine's older sister he was

smitten

he would never feel the same way about

anyone else

al rominger found curly a job working at

the local garage

the automobile was still a pretty

newfangled machine curly had a knack for

fixing cars

he earned enough to enable him to move

into a boarding house

[Music]

he wasn't a spendthrift

and i used to like it when i have to get

paychecks because he'd give me nickels

and dimes

with his new salary curly began to court

jessamine

he only had one problem

getting rid of catherine the little

sister go to the movies yeah

well i was thinking of the park how

about if you go to the movies and me and

justin go to the park

okay okay

well here we are

[Music]

he and jasmine would go wherever they

went

they had some friends in skyler

and but i didn't care where he went i

got the nickel and dime

that's all i cared about

curly's got quite a bit of adjustment

because he never went with other girls

only jasmine

in 1917 curly left his job as a mechanic

to enlist in the

army he also left his beloved jessamine

she began training to be a nurse

curly served on the european front

it was his unenviable duty to drive the

dead and wounded in a makeshift army

hospital

the suffering he witnessed scarred curly

but when the war ended he returned home

full of hope to skylar nebraska and to

jessup

[Music]

catherine it's good to see you again

have you been

fine

is justin in here

no curly i'm sorry he's gone to omaha

well nothing flowers

jasmine liked him and he was a gentleman

always

but she wanted other things out of life

and he didn't appear to be educated

and his earning capacity wasn't great i

suppose

and anyhow they didn't go together

anymore

[Music]

curly followed jessamine to omaha and

got a job

first as a mechanic at a newspaper the

omaha b

then as a night watchman for the union

pacific railroad curley refused to give

up on jessa

but jessamine rominger married another

man curly never fell in love again he

never married or had a family

curly spent the next 60 years alone

in all those years he never told anyone

who his real family was

other than catherine curley's best

friend was riley marr his barber and a

fellow member of the masonic lodge

i really never really got that close to

him actually i thought i was a pretty

good friend of his because he did invite

me over to his

home on occasion and we did sit around

and have coffee and talked about things

once riley noticed some postcards and

pictures neatly displayed in curly's

apartment

he was curious to know if they were from

curley's family i picked one of them up

and it had a postmark of brooklyn new

york and i asked him something about

where that was

it was a long ways from home and he said

never mind and he took it and put it

away

well it made me feel like i was probably

intruding on his privacy of some sort

and that he had something that he maybe

didn't want revealed or maybe he'd had a

tragedy in his lifetime somewhere along

the way that he was trying to avoid

talking about

over the years kirliad amassed a

considerable fortune but he kept that a

secret too

some people attributed curly's wealth to

an extremely valuable coin collection

but catherine thought he just plain

saved every penny he made

well he said he would get up in the

morning and after he'd eat breakfast

he'd put a can on the pilot light

and by the time he'd come back and ready

for lunch or the evening meal it was

just right to eat he was that saving

maybe that's how he got the money

when he died curly green had accumulated

a fortune of more than two hundred

thousand dollars

held primarily in real estate stocks and

bonds

so far no legitimate heirs have claimed

curley's estate

in 1986 investigator josh butler who

tracks down missing heirs professionally

began researching the case of curly

green

josh had heard that curly once mentioned

having a brother who was killed in a

shootout indeed there had been a man

named al green who was

shot and killed shortly after the fourth

of july in 1921. we really went to some

extremes in this case

but were surprised and a little

disappointed never to have found any

clear connection with curly green

part of the mystery here is that al

green's

father

i believe to have been a joseph greene

and i now understand that curly green's

father was a harry albert green

so

quite probably al green and

curly green we're cousins rather than

brothers

the man named al green was killed in

1921.

josh butler now thinks it is probable

that curley's actual brother was killed

several years earlier

the search for curly's heirs continues

it's very strange that a man would

accumulate 200 000 in his lifetime

and that he would have no known

relatives that anybody knew about

and not leave some sort of a written

document

concerning the disposition of this money

somewhere there's somebody who has

enough information in their own family

that they're going to be able to come

forward and prove their entitlement to

this it'll be a case of

going from the people back to the money

these are five of the few known

photographs of curly green

showing him as a young man

in middle age

and before he died

we know he said he was born in kendall

montana and lived in denver

we know he had a collection of gold

coins some of which he might have

obtained in mexico

he received postcards from someone in

brooklyn new york

curley claimed he had a brother who was

killed in a shootout

and he stated on a 1938 birth

certificate that albert harry greene

born in england and anne morin green

born in latvia

were his parents

none of these three relatives has been

traced

at curley's funeral a mysterious wreath

of flowers became the final clue to his

past this card came with the flowers

it signed mrs joe greener denver

colorado

perhaps mrs greener is the key to the

puzzling life of walter curly green

next the story of a double murder in a

tiny baptist church in rural georgia

the only clue is a pair of ordinary

glasses left behind by the killer

[Music]

[Applause]

there

waverly georgia population 825 is a

predominantly black community nestled in

the baptist bible belt

lumber farming and the paper mill

provide the income for this small

isolated area over 35 miles from the

nearest big city

jacksonville florida

[Music]

for years rising daughters baptist

church has served not only as a place of

worship but also as a social center for

the small township

[Music]

but on march 11 1985 this quiet

community was shattered by violence

the quiet sanctity of rising daughter's

church was violated by the brutal double

murder of harold and thelma swain

harold swain was a well-respected deacon

of the church a member of the county

jury commission and a spokesperson for

the black community

thelma swain was also closely involved

with church affairs harold and film had

been married for over 43 years

[Music]

harold was always happy and jolly

laughing it's something like that might

have come natural to harold

because of his love and kindness for

everyone

and he would always go out of his way to

help someone at any time

day or night no matter what time

if you needed a favor of any type and he

could do it he was there

same thing about them

all the people up here

well they came to this funeral most

people ever saw a funeral

here in my life

just

called everybody who you know thought

that much of hell and respect

on the night they were murdered harold

and thelma held their weekly tuesday

night bible class

nine women

do i put my attended

let me never be put to confusion

now let us pray

oh god i want to thank you for bringing

us together tonight

in jesus name

amen

now is there any father of business that

you care to discuss sister brenda yeah

well i'd like to remind everybody at 8

50 one of the women excused herself

may i help you

yeah i want to talk to somebody oh

some money in there

she encountered a stranger in the church

festival

i want to talk to him they'll be right

back

some of the other women in the group

caught just a glimpse of the man a young

white male

in april

excuse me

what's happening

[Music]

the women rushed into the pastor's

office and tried to call for help

the phone didn't work

20 minutes passed while the women waited

in fear

finally one of them made a dash for her

car and went to summon help

that night the georgia bureau of

investigation was brought in

a massive manhunt started in this tiny

black community

harold and thelma were personal friends

of mine and my families

and it was kind of a

shock to me i think i was in shock for a

while

when i got there there was a lot of

confusion

no one really knew what had happened

they didn't know what the facts were

they didn't know who had done the

killing they didn't know what the motive

was the swain's highly respected people

very active in the community

are just not the type of person that

you know would be the victim of a murder

plot

there was a lot of physical evidence at

the scene

bullet casings

two pair of glasses

for one we were able to determine belong

to the emt harold swan

the other pair

no one knew who they belonged to

the first gut reaction that i had was a

transient

because the glasses appeared to belong

to a person who did not have enough

money to

properly maintain their glasses or to

buy glasses when they needed them

these are the glasses found on that

night

and they're not ordinary glasses

the lenses are thick

the surface pocked by a welding torch

the earpieces don't match

or they drop by the killer

when the police discovered these glasses

they investigated the theory that the

murder may have been a transient

rising daughter's church is located on

busy highway 17.

transients often would stop by for a

handout or a free meal

but if robbery was the motive

why were over 300 left in harold swain's

pocket

other evidence suggests that the crime

was premeditated

the authorities feel that the church had

been cased before the brutal attack

[Music]

the telephone lines at the church had

been cut

which uh could or could not say that

it was a premeditated murder could have

been a premeditated armed robbery

attempt

the woman who left the church early

clearly saw the attacker

fearing for her life she did not want to

appear on camera

he was calm

i was thinking

that he was there for a handout

he didn't seem to be

someone to hurt anybody

i didn't see any weapon or anything

and it seemed like he had on scuff boots

and he had long blonde hair

shoulder-length hair

but i really wasn't looking at him that

hard you know because i wanted to leave

all right

the police attempted to create a picture

of the killer using an identicate but

the eyewitnesses did not agree on many

of the details

an artist was brought in to sketch a

composite drawing

for five months the police searched for

the killer using the composite drawing

but no new leads or clues surfaced

[Music]

finally on july 5th 1985 police 135

miles away in telfair county georgia

pulled over a car for a minor traffic

violation

in the trunk they found an automatic

weapon in a submachine

gun three suspects were taken into

custody one of them

donny baringtine

we were given some information by some

acquaintance of these people

that

donnie barrett

had told people in florida that he had

murdered a black preacher and his wife

in a church

after several interviews with donny he

uh

admitted that he had told these people

in

florida that he

killed a black preacher and his wife

and then he just smiled and said but i

was lying to him

we have never been able to come up with

any hard evidence to

connect

donnie with this case donnie barentine

was then given a polygraph test and he

flunked it as a matter of fact the

polygraph operator told us that mr

barentine was a very good suspect in the

murder the resemblance between the man

on the wanted poster and donnie

berringtime was inconclusive

so the eyewitnesses from the church in

waverly were taken to jacksonville for a

police lineup

you'll be viewing

five individuals

i'd like if you will to place yourself

in your mind

back at the church the night this

incident happened

okay yes sir five individuals on the

other side won't be able to see or hear

you

lights

lights

there was about six men there

and i really couldn't see

that

one of them was him you know because the

person i saw had short hair

his completion was a little bit lighter

but he had the same boots that i saw

that night

the boots was what i recognized

but i i wasn't really really sure

the murder charges against donnie

berringtime were not pursued but he was

subsequently convicted on weapons

charges and is currently serving five

years in a federal penitentiary

one year later the swain investigation

took a new direction

agent joe gregory came across a face in

a state crime bulletin which exactly

matched the identicate picture created

by one of the witnesses at the church

[Music]

it gave me a chill

it literally gave me a chill when i saw

the composite because there are so many

hundreds of thousands of combinations to

make a composite and what are the odds

that

two of them being exact

and these composites were exact

matches the kansas suspect was wanted

for armed robbery in a church but was

never taken into custody the kansas

bureau of investigation could not even

give agent gregory the suspect's name

we found that they had never developed

any leads

they don't know who he is

other than the fact that he drove an

older car with a florida tag on it

three years later the brutal murders of

harold and thelma swain remain a mystery

were they just random killings committed

by a violent transient

or were they a planned and premeditated

murder and if so

why

they say your first hunch is usually

your best

everything that night

uh

pointed

to a transit

attempting to pull a robbery

my feelings are

and that the individual did not get any

money

he went around and checked to find out

if there was a phone

and then cut those lines

and singled out one individual from the

church and brought him out to the

vegetable

shot him and then in my opinion intended

that he'd be dead he shot him the last

round in the temple there's no question

that his intent was to kill harold swain

personally

a case like this haunts you

it's it's the type of case that

you never forget

i drive by rising daughters

every day

coming into this county

and i never drive by that i don't look

and

think about the swains

update moses lake washington

within minutes of our broadcast 20

viewers in this small rural community

called the police to say they recognized

jerry strickland and missy mundy

seven hours later the police arrested

the fugitive couple at a friend's house

they discovered that jerry and missy had

themselves watched the broadcast and

we're waiting for the police

all he says i'm the guy you're looking

for

[Music]

and he was

just real calm and collect

no violence at all

i figured the time was about seven hours

and 15 minutes from the time the

unsolved mysteries aired and he was in

custody

i just felt sick about it

on february 12th jerry and missy were

extradited back to michigan to stand

trial for armed robbery kidnapping and

murder

jerry insists they are innocent

they got circumstance of evidence

all hearsay

it's people talking

but no

witnesses i mean

okay

that's why you know i say

they're gonna learn that we didn't do

this

we have enough evidence

circumstantial evidence and physical

evidence

uh that we feel he's guilty all they

want is a conviction and they don't care

if they burn me or not

thanks to our viewers jerry strickland

and missy mundy will have their day in

court

they're being tried separately and if

convicted could face life imprisonment

without the possibility of parole
