00:00:04,546 --> 00:00:06,924
When it comes
to forging her own destiny,
2
00:00:07,007 --> 00:00:10,802
29-year-old Morgan Fox
is a master strategist.
3
00:00:12,095 --> 00:00:13,805
She knew what she wanted in life.
4
00:00:14,306 --> 00:00:17,184
She documents her triumphs meticulously,
5
00:00:17,601 --> 00:00:19,811
like her recent promotion to manager.
6
00:00:19,895 --> 00:00:21,939
She was very smart. She worked hard.
7
00:00:23,190 --> 00:00:25,651
But when her confidence poses a danger,
8
00:00:26,276 --> 00:00:28,654
she finds herself in the crosshairs.
9
00:00:30,405 --> 00:00:33,158
Like, who would intentionally kill Morgan?
Who?
10
00:00:33,242 --> 00:00:36,203
As investigators peel back the layers...
11
00:00:36,995 --> 00:00:40,415
The boyfriend, coworkers,
everyone at this point is a suspect.
12
00:00:40,791 --> 00:00:44,211
...they unearth
twisted paths of fixation
13
00:00:44,294 --> 00:00:47,422
and carefully curated messages
from Morgan
14
00:00:47,506 --> 00:00:50,759
that reveal a disturbing pattern
of mistreatment.
15
00:00:50,843 --> 00:00:54,388
The most powerful evidence we had
was found on her computer.
16
00:00:55,180 --> 00:00:57,641
Hours before she was killed,
she sent this email.
17
00:00:58,308 --> 00:01:01,270
Could Morgan's
own words of self-advocacy
18
00:01:02,229 --> 00:01:04,064
lead to her killer?
19
00:01:04,147 --> 00:01:07,484
You've gotta really
watch out who you're getting close to
20
00:01:07,568 --> 00:01:10,320
'cause you don't know
anybody's true intentions.
21
00:01:15,868 --> 00:01:17,870
She solved her own murder
from beyond the grave.
22
00:01:17,953 --> 00:01:20,122
The fitness app on the phone.
23
00:01:20,205 --> 00:01:21,665
It was overwhelming evidence.

It's October 28th in Canton, Ohio.
32
00:01:55,657 --> 00:01:57,326
Halloween is three days away,
33
00:01:57,409 --> 00:02:00,787
and 29-year-old Morgan Fox
is doing it all.
34
00:02:02,164 --> 00:02:05,542
She's balancing her dreams
of a promising career
35
00:02:05,626 --> 00:02:08,504
and cultivating a happy family
with her loving boyfriend,
36
00:02:08,587 --> 00:02:10,756
Jason, and their young daughters.
37
00:02:10,839 --> 00:02:14,468
♪ But I can't get you out of ♪
38
00:02:14,551 --> 00:02:17,638
But early one morning,
when he looks out the window,
39
00:02:17,721 --> 00:02:21,350
Jason sees something alarming
and dials 911.
40
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,313
Morgan is getting in her
vehicle, getting ready to leave for work.
41
00:02:27,481 --> 00:02:29,983
She's usually gone by 2:15 a.m.,
42
00:02:30,067 --> 00:02:32,569
and she was taken by surprise.
43
00:02:33,737 --> 00:02:35,948
She was shot.
She died immediately.
44
00:02:37,115 --> 00:02:39,451
My name's Rocco Ross.
I was the lead investigator
45
00:02:39,535 --> 00:02:41,703
for the Morgan Ashlye Fox case.
46
00:02:46,542 --> 00:02:48,418
When I arrived there,
47
00:02:49,419 --> 00:02:51,421
there were several other people
standing around.
48
00:02:52,798 --> 00:02:54,591
Aside from law enforcement,
49
00:02:54,675 --> 00:02:56,718
there was a reporter standing there.
50
00:02:56,802 --> 00:02:58,345
Walking towards the residence,
51
00:02:58,428 --> 00:03:02,182
you can see there's a white vinyl fence
52
00:03:02,266 --> 00:03:05,394
that had mud flung along the fence.
53
00:03:05,477 --> 00:03:08,438
Right next to that,
there were tire tracks in the mud,
54
00:03:08,522 --> 00:03:10,607
in the grass right off of the roadway.
55
00:03:11,900 --> 00:03:14,862
I approached the vehicle in the driveway.
56
00:03:14,945 --> 00:03:17,781
I saw Morgan Fox sitting in her vehicle.
57
00:03:17,865 --> 00:03:21,201
I saw her slumped over the center console
58
00:03:21,285 --> 00:03:24,830
with blood on the side of her head
and running down her shirt.
59
00:03:25,998 --> 00:03:28,959
Her belongings lie abandoned
on the damp ground
60
00:03:29,042 --> 00:03:31,044
beside her cracked cell phone.
61
00:03:31,712 --> 00:03:33,630
Someone walked up to Morgan
62
00:03:33,714 --> 00:03:35,632
and shot her multiple times...
63
00:03:35,716 --> 00:03:38,218
-...killing her instantly.
64
00:03:39,887 --> 00:03:41,638
Morgan Fox's mom arrives,
65
00:03:41,722 --> 00:03:44,766
and she said that she received the call
66
00:03:44,850 --> 00:03:49,021
from an employee of the shipping company
that Morgan works for.
67
00:03:49,104 --> 00:03:52,107
Called her and said, "Hey,
Morgan did not come to work last night.
68
00:03:52,191 --> 00:03:55,527
Just checking in to see if she's okay."
69
00:03:55,611 --> 00:03:57,404
And while I'm speaking with her,
70
00:03:57,487 --> 00:04:00,407
the reporter blurts out that
she was shot in the head.
71
00:04:00,490 --> 00:04:04,786
So, that's how Morgan Fox's mom found out
what had happened to her daughter.
72
00:04:05,787 --> 00:04:09,249
And the news of her murder
hits her family hard.
73
00:04:09,333 --> 00:04:11,627
Cora Stonerock.
74
00:04:11,710 --> 00:04:13,670
-Mark.
75
00:04:14,046 --> 00:04:17,216
My name is Cora Stonerock
and I am Morgan's stepsister.
76
00:04:18,842 --> 00:04:22,721
The day she died, I was trying
to get the kids out the door.
77
00:04:22,804 --> 00:04:25,349
My sister screams my name.
78
00:04:25,432 --> 00:04:29,061
She was ghost white,
and she said, "Morgan's dead."
79
00:04:33,190 --> 00:04:35,859
I remember, like, screaming at her.
80
00:04:35,943 --> 00:04:38,320
She's trying to tell me
that Morgan's dead,
81
00:04:38,403 --> 00:04:39,905
but I don't know how...
82
00:04:40,697 --> 00:04:43,575
I-- Like-- It doesn't seem possible.
83
00:04:45,410 --> 00:04:48,080
It's hard to believe anyone
would want to hurt Morgan.
84
00:04:49,331 --> 00:04:51,583
Clever, smart, and friendly,
85
00:04:51,667 --> 00:04:53,919
she was loved by everyone.
86
00:04:54,002 --> 00:04:56,672
She's part of a modern-day
Brady Bunch family.
87
00:04:58,674 --> 00:05:00,717
My dad and Cyndi, Morgan's mom,
88
00:05:00,801 --> 00:05:02,553
met when I was in the second grade.
89
00:05:02,636 --> 00:05:04,346
We were a family of seven,
90
00:05:04,429 --> 00:05:08,475
and Cyndi's family was five,
so together, there was 12 of us.
91
00:05:09,101 --> 00:05:11,770
Me and Morgan were best
friends from the get.
92
00:05:13,105 --> 00:05:17,109
She definitely was somebody that knew
what she wanted in life.
93
00:05:17,526 --> 00:05:20,237
Morgan knows exactly what she wants,
94
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,947
when she wants it.
95
00:05:22,030 --> 00:05:24,283
But as soon as she turns 20,
96
00:05:24,366 --> 00:05:27,786
life comes fast and she becomes a mom.
97
00:05:27,870 --> 00:05:30,873
She was super excited to be a mother.
98
00:05:30,956 --> 00:05:32,791
She was thrilled. She longed for this.
99
00:05:32,875 --> 00:05:36,545
But things don't work out
between Morgan and her daughter's father.
100
00:05:36,628 --> 00:05:39,381
So Morgan moves
to Canton for a new start,
101
00:05:39,464 --> 00:05:41,842
where she lands a promising career
102
00:05:41,925 --> 00:05:45,596
and a seemingly perfect boyfriend,
Jason Scarnecchia.
103
00:05:45,679 --> 00:05:48,807
She could not wait to be married,
for her dream house,
104
00:05:49,516 --> 00:05:52,477
for her dream job, for her family,
105
00:05:52,561 --> 00:05:56,190
and that's why she chose FedEx,
'cause she wanted to be able to move up.
106
00:05:56,273 --> 00:05:58,567
She wanted something where
she would make enough money
107
00:05:58,650 --> 00:06:00,444
to be able to give her daughter, Emilia,
108
00:06:00,527 --> 00:06:02,779
the life that she, she always
wanted to give Emilia.
109
00:06:03,864 --> 00:06:05,407
Morgan ended up getting promoted
110
00:06:05,490 --> 00:06:08,702
and ended up moving up to be team manager.
111
00:06:08,785 --> 00:06:11,330
So, that was a goal of hers,
and she accomplished it.
112
00:06:11,955 --> 00:06:15,000
But now,
Morgan's dreams have been cut short,
113
00:06:15,083 --> 00:06:17,794
and detectives need to know why.
114
00:06:17,878 --> 00:06:19,755
They inspect the scene for clues.
115
00:06:21,340 --> 00:06:24,426
My name is Dennis Barr,
and I'm the chief criminal prosecutor
116
00:06:24,510 --> 00:06:26,178
for Stark County, Ohio.
117
00:06:26,261 --> 00:06:28,722
- Dennis Barr, marker.
118
00:06:29,848 --> 00:06:32,643
We found in her console,
there was some money.
119
00:06:32,726 --> 00:06:34,811
Her purse was laying on the ground.
120
00:06:35,562 --> 00:06:37,606
This is not a robbery gone bad.
121
00:06:37,689 --> 00:06:39,566
Somebody, for some reason,
122
00:06:39,650 --> 00:06:43,529
came here with the specific intention
of killing Morgan Fox.
123
00:06:44,905 --> 00:06:47,032
Police check
the neighborhood for witnesses,
124
00:06:47,115 --> 00:06:49,993
but they come up empty-handed.
125
00:06:50,077 --> 00:06:52,746
There was a few people that
had Ring doorbell cameras...
126
00:06:55,791 --> 00:06:57,167
...but didn't capture anything.
127
00:06:57,251 --> 00:07:00,128
-We had no weapon on the scene.
128
00:07:00,212 --> 00:07:04,216
And not one person
heard a peep, gunshot,
129
00:07:04,299 --> 00:07:07,970
or even a scream,
including Morgan's boyfriend, Jason.
130
00:07:09,096 --> 00:07:12,182
Jason was the first person to find Morgan.
131
00:07:12,266 --> 00:07:13,809
And for a grieving boyfriend,
132
00:07:14,351 --> 00:07:16,562
he's oddly calm.
133
00:07:17,813 --> 00:07:20,482
Jason Scarnecchia is
the one that called 911.
134
00:07:30,951 --> 00:07:34,454
My first contact with him,
he appeared to be a little bit in shock.
135
00:07:34,538 --> 00:07:36,373
I asked for his cell phones,
136
00:07:36,456 --> 00:07:38,917
and he handed over his personal one.
137
00:07:40,085 --> 00:07:42,963
He was more hesitant to
hand over his work cell,
138
00:07:43,046 --> 00:07:44,506
and said it wasn't his.
139
00:07:46,383 --> 00:07:49,094
If Jason has nothing to hide,
140
00:07:49,178 --> 00:07:51,346
why is he so hesitant?
141
00:07:51,430 --> 00:07:54,266
Once we told him that he would
probably get it back at some point,
142
00:07:54,349 --> 00:07:55,893
he handed it over.
143
00:07:57,811 --> 00:08:00,314
We told him, "You're gonna go to
the sheriff's office for some questioning.
144
00:08:00,397 --> 00:08:01,940
We need talk to you a little further."
145
00:08:02,024 --> 00:08:04,568
He was barefoot at that point,
146
00:08:04,651 --> 00:08:06,737
so I asked him where his socks were kept.
147
00:08:08,113 --> 00:08:09,198
"I'll go get 'em for you."
148
00:08:10,908 --> 00:08:12,159
This is now a crime scene.
149
00:08:12,242 --> 00:08:14,870
We can't just let people wander around it.
150
00:08:14,953 --> 00:08:17,497
One of the things they could do
is maybe hide evidence
151
00:08:17,581 --> 00:08:19,082
or destroy evidence.
152
00:08:22,461 --> 00:08:24,755
He chose to go without the sock s.
153
00:08:24,838 --> 00:08:27,132
It was very odd.
154
00:08:29,092 --> 00:08:31,428
Once Jason Scarnecchia
got to the sheriff's office,
155
00:08:31,512 --> 00:08:33,263
he was interviewed there.
156
00:08:33,889 --> 00:08:36,642
But Jason's subdued demeanor continues.
157
00:08:36,725 --> 00:08:40,729
Not what I would expect
for someone who just woke up
158
00:08:40,812 --> 00:08:43,690
and found the woman that they love
159
00:08:43,774 --> 00:08:45,734
dead in the front seat of her car.
160
00:08:46,944 --> 00:08:48,779
Jason says the night before,
161
00:08:48,862 --> 00:08:51,198
Morgan dropped her daughter
off at her mom's house,
162
00:08:51,281 --> 00:08:55,118
then came home around 9:30 p.m.
and went to bed.
163
00:08:57,371 --> 00:09:00,666
Early the next morning at 1:30 a.m.,
164
00:09:00,749 --> 00:09:02,835
Morgan got up to go to work.
165
00:09:02,918 --> 00:09:06,505
Only, she never made it
out of the driveway alive.
166
00:09:08,173 --> 00:09:09,341
Jason heard nothing
167
00:09:09,424 --> 00:09:12,636
and saw nothing until
he found Morgan's body.
168
00:09:13,846 --> 00:09:17,307
He did admit that they had
some arguments and fights.
169
00:09:18,976 --> 00:09:20,853
But they were fine at that moment.
170
00:09:21,937 --> 00:09:24,815
But text messages found on Jason's phone
171
00:09:24,898 --> 00:09:27,484
paint a different picture.
172
00:09:27,568 --> 00:09:31,071
It appeared that Morgan Fox
and Jason Scarnecchia
173
00:09:31,154 --> 00:09:34,241
had some fights prior to this incident...
174
00:09:35,993 --> 00:09:37,077
...and it turned violent.
175
00:09:38,579 --> 00:09:41,164
Is it possible
that a couple's quarrel
176
00:09:41,248 --> 00:09:43,792
pushed her boyfriend,
Jason, over the edge?
177
00:09:43,876 --> 00:09:45,919
The detectives begin to realize
178
00:09:46,545 --> 00:09:51,175
this is just the start
to a disturbing new twist.
179
00:09:59,558 --> 00:10:01,852
Morgan Fox
was building the life and career
180
00:10:01,935 --> 00:10:03,812
she always wanted.
181
00:10:03,896 --> 00:10:06,523
But when she's found dead
in her driveway,
182
00:10:06,607 --> 00:10:09,443
the detectives zero in on her boyfriend,
183
00:10:09,526 --> 00:10:11,445
Jason Scarnecchia, for answers.
184
00:10:12,946 --> 00:10:17,159
And his strange behavior
makes him look extremely suspicious.
185
00:10:17,242 --> 00:10:19,912
We always start off with
their significant other.
186
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,956
Any reason, any motive that
might give them a reason
187
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,583
to commit this crime.
188
00:10:25,167 --> 00:10:27,794
Was this just a typical lover's quarrel?
189
00:10:27,878 --> 00:10:30,422
Or was Morgan in a toxic relationship,
190
00:10:30,506 --> 00:10:33,258
destined to end in tragedy?
191
00:10:33,509 --> 00:10:36,011
♪ Say you want me ♪
192
00:10:36,094 --> 00:10:38,931
Morgan met Jason Scarnecchia at FedEx.
193
00:10:39,473 --> 00:10:41,475
He was very kind to her,
194
00:10:41,558 --> 00:10:43,894
and he also had a daughter.
195
00:10:43,977 --> 00:10:47,105
♪ I am so reckless,
leaving always breathless ♪
196
00:10:47,189 --> 00:10:48,899
And then, they realized that
197
00:10:48,982 --> 00:10:50,776
if they wanted to take things
to the next level,
198
00:10:50,859 --> 00:10:53,278
one of them were gonna have to move jobs.
199
00:10:53,362 --> 00:10:56,073
So that's when Jason chose to leave FedEx
200
00:10:56,156 --> 00:10:58,534
so that him and Morgan could
continue to be together.
201
00:10:58,617 --> 00:11:02,871
Is it possible that Morgan's
boyfriend, Jason Scarnecchia,
202
00:11:02,955 --> 00:11:05,415
isn't the nice guy he appears to be?
203
00:11:06,625 --> 00:11:09,336
After two hours of intense questioning,
204
00:11:09,419 --> 00:11:12,297
-he bursts into tears.
205
00:11:12,381 --> 00:11:15,843
It finally hit him that his,
his girlfriend was just murdered.
206
00:11:16,343 --> 00:11:19,221
Is this the clever act of a murderer?
207
00:11:19,304 --> 00:11:22,140
Could these tears actually
be tears of guilt?
208
00:11:23,892 --> 00:11:26,436
Other than evidence of one intense fight,
209
00:11:27,020 --> 00:11:30,148
there's no reason to hold Jason,
so he's free to go.
210
00:11:30,858 --> 00:11:32,150
For now.
211
00:11:32,234 --> 00:11:34,736
But questions remain.
212
00:11:34,820 --> 00:11:37,155
Why didn't Jason hear those fatal gunshots
213
00:11:37,239 --> 00:11:39,867
just a few feet outside
his bedroom window?
214
00:11:41,034 --> 00:11:42,828
Where is the murder weapon?
215
00:11:44,413 --> 00:11:47,791
So detectives shift their gaze
into Morgan and Jason's home.
216
00:11:51,253 --> 00:11:53,338
In searching their residence,
217
00:11:53,422 --> 00:11:56,049
it did not appear that there
was any struggle inside.
218
00:11:56,133 --> 00:11:57,885
And once they get to the bedroom,
219
00:11:57,968 --> 00:12:02,806
detectives find what Jason was trying
to hide from them earlier that morning.
220
00:12:02,890 --> 00:12:05,684
We found a little bit of
marijuana in his sock drawer.
221
00:12:07,186 --> 00:12:11,106
He was worried about the drugs,
and here his girlfriend was just murdered.
222
00:12:11,190 --> 00:12:15,652
Could a simple bag of marijuana
be the cause of Jason's anxiety?
223
00:12:15,736 --> 00:12:17,738
Or was there another factor at play?
224
00:12:18,989 --> 00:12:23,368
With no evidence of foul play
and no murder weapon accounted for,
225
00:12:23,452 --> 00:12:27,539
Morgan's boyfriend, Jason,
is not in the clear just yet.
226
00:12:27,623 --> 00:12:29,208
You focus first on the spouse,
227
00:12:29,291 --> 00:12:32,252
and then you've gotta focus on,
who does she know?
228
00:12:32,336 --> 00:12:34,254
Who are her acquaintances?
229
00:12:34,338 --> 00:12:38,634
That morning,
Morgan's mother told the deputies,
230
00:12:38,717 --> 00:12:44,640
"Look, she had a problem with some people
at FedEx where she worked."
231
00:12:44,723 --> 00:12:48,393
Something about her phone,
which led us to FedEx.
232
00:12:52,189 --> 00:12:53,649
My name is Michelle Hanus.
233
00:12:53,732 --> 00:12:56,985
I worked at FedEx Ground in North Canton.
234
00:12:57,569 --> 00:13:01,031
My position was operations
administrator, HR.
235
00:13:02,950 --> 00:13:05,827
The police had asked me
about Jason Scarnecchia.
236
00:13:05,911 --> 00:13:08,163
When I first started as a package handler,
237
00:13:08,247 --> 00:13:10,499
he was my manager.
238
00:13:10,582 --> 00:13:12,626
He was very encouraging,
239
00:13:12,709 --> 00:13:14,336
so I liked him.
240
00:13:15,546 --> 00:13:18,590
But could he have killed Morgan?
241
00:13:18,674 --> 00:13:23,345
I had expressed that to the police that
there was no way he would've done that.
242
00:13:24,847 --> 00:13:28,267
I felt that there may have been
one of the other managers
243
00:13:28,350 --> 00:13:29,935
or one of the other employees
244
00:13:30,018 --> 00:13:34,273
that were retaliating against Morgan.
245
00:13:35,858 --> 00:13:39,069
Retaliate?
What could she have possibly done
246
00:13:39,152 --> 00:13:42,281
to warrant retaliation from a coworker?
247
00:13:42,364 --> 00:13:44,700
I learned that one of the coworkers,
248
00:13:44,783 --> 00:13:46,535
he had a crush on Morgan
249
00:13:46,618 --> 00:13:49,705
prior to her getting
with Jason Scarnecchia.
250
00:13:49,788 --> 00:13:53,083
She really was drawn to Jason
and ended up being with Jason,
251
00:13:53,166 --> 00:13:56,962
and I think that a lot of
people's feelings were upset.
252
00:13:57,045 --> 00:13:59,047
And that's when a lot of the problems...
253
00:14:00,299 --> 00:14:01,341
occurred.
254
00:14:02,342 --> 00:14:06,138
But that's not the only drama
swirling around the office.
255
00:14:06,221 --> 00:14:10,100
When Morgan gets the promotion to manager
she's been gunning for,
256
00:14:10,184 --> 00:14:12,853
many of her male colleagues
become jealous.
257
00:14:14,313 --> 00:14:15,772
There weren't a lot of women
258
00:14:15,856 --> 00:14:18,734
who went into management positions.
259
00:14:18,817 --> 00:14:20,027
It felt like a boys' club.
260
00:14:21,153 --> 00:14:24,031
The jealousy or intimidation
261
00:14:24,114 --> 00:14:26,950
with Morgan's attire,
what she wore to work.
262
00:14:27,034 --> 00:14:28,493
They didn't like how she dressed.
263
00:14:28,577 --> 00:14:30,621
So, they complained about that.
264
00:14:30,704 --> 00:14:32,581
She was feeling like
she was being bullied
265
00:14:32,664 --> 00:14:34,875
or harassed by other managers,
266
00:14:34,958 --> 00:14:37,169
and it, it bothered me.
267
00:14:38,462 --> 00:14:42,549
Then, the investigators learned
these same two managers
268
00:14:42,633 --> 00:14:46,512
and one of Morgan's friends
were involved in the cell phone incident
269
00:14:46,595 --> 00:14:48,889
that Morgan's mom had warned them about.
270
00:14:48,972 --> 00:14:50,349
I saw her crying.
271
00:14:50,432 --> 00:14:51,892
She said, "I need to talk to you."
272
00:14:51,975 --> 00:14:53,477
She had set her phone down
273
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,522
to help another employee
get her line caught up,
274
00:14:56,605 --> 00:14:59,483
and then they had just taken her phone.
275
00:14:59,566 --> 00:15:02,027
Morgan's phone was unlocked,
276
00:15:02,110 --> 00:15:05,239
and these two managers
just started scrolling.
277
00:15:05,989 --> 00:15:07,658
♪ You got something to hide ♪
278
00:15:07,866 --> 00:15:09,743

279
00:15:09,826 --> 00:15:12,079
Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook.
280
00:15:12,162 --> 00:15:15,958
She posted more than, like,
the average person, for sure.
281
00:15:16,041 --> 00:15:18,126
-She used social media a lot.
282
00:15:18,544 --> 00:15:22,005
Like, I saw
the managers talking about her
283
00:15:22,381 --> 00:15:25,634
and looking at her social media.
And I knew,
284
00:15:25,717 --> 00:15:27,594
like, that's totally inappropriate.
285
00:15:28,595 --> 00:15:32,349
But there are some photos
that coworkers aren't meant to see.
286
00:15:34,184 --> 00:15:37,521
Ones that Morgan had taken
for her boyfriend's eyes only.
287
00:15:40,107 --> 00:15:43,735
She radioed, uh,
"Hey, does anybody see my phone?"
288
00:15:43,819 --> 00:15:47,823
Another person told her
that Jason McDermitt
289
00:15:47,906 --> 00:15:51,076
had it in the sort tower,
you know, an elevated area
290
00:15:51,159 --> 00:15:55,247
where the boxes are being
moved on the conveyor belts.
291
00:15:56,748 --> 00:15:59,751
Morgan was friends with Jason McDermitt,
292
00:15:59,835 --> 00:16:01,503
who was a package handler at the time.
293
00:16:02,129 --> 00:16:05,048
She went up there to confront him about,
294
00:16:05,132 --> 00:16:06,884
you know, getting her phone back.
295
00:16:06,967 --> 00:16:10,637
He lied to her at first and told
her that he did not have the phone.
296
00:16:10,721 --> 00:16:14,850
And then, she saw the phone,
and he ended up handing it to her.
297
00:16:15,184 --> 00:16:18,854
Morgan wasn't shocked
the other two guys went through her phone,
298
00:16:18,937 --> 00:16:23,066
but she would've never expected this
from her friend Jason McDermitt.

She was upset and didn't
want anything to do with him.
302
00:16:37,164 --> 00:16:38,582
After her phone was stolen,
she had said,
303
00:16:38,665 --> 00:16:40,709
"I don't think,
like, we should be friends,
304
00:16:40,792 --> 00:16:42,794
like, friends don't lie to each other."
305
00:16:44,046 --> 00:16:47,424
Morgan reports the incident
with three of her coworkers
306
00:16:47,508 --> 00:16:49,801
to a manager who promises
to take care of it.

309
00:16:57,184 --> 00:17:00,187
When Morgan asks
her manager for an update,
310
00:17:00,270 --> 00:17:02,648
she gets reprimanded instead.
311
00:17:02,731 --> 00:17:04,691
The result of Morgan asking,
312
00:17:04,775 --> 00:17:08,237
"Hey, what's gonna happen about
this person who took my phone?"
313
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,864
Instead, gets handed
a dress code violation.
314
00:17:10,948 --> 00:17:12,824
"You're wearing leggings.
You shouldn't be wearing leggings."
315
00:17:14,576 --> 00:17:18,038
Morgan Fox filed a complaint
against some of her coworkers
316
00:17:18,121 --> 00:17:20,165
for harassing her for this attire.
317
00:17:21,375 --> 00:17:23,544
Morgan thought that
by filing this complaint,
318
00:17:23,627 --> 00:17:25,295
she thought HR would've
handled that with them.
319
00:17:27,047 --> 00:17:30,676
Then, the harassment starts to escalate.
320
00:17:30,759 --> 00:17:34,555
Somebody took her chair
and her clipboard one day.
321
00:17:34,638 --> 00:17:37,641
Two of the managers were,
like, talking behind her back
322
00:17:37,724 --> 00:17:38,851
and, like, gossiping.
323
00:17:38,934 --> 00:17:41,812
She told me that she had heard comments
324
00:17:41,895 --> 00:17:43,814
and that it was inappropriate.
325
00:17:43,897 --> 00:17:45,858
You know, like, sexual comments.
326
00:17:46,775 --> 00:17:48,151
Morgan felt targeted.
327
00:17:51,572 --> 00:17:54,491
13 days after Morgan's phone was taken
328
00:17:54,575 --> 00:17:57,369
and one week before she's murdered,
329
00:17:57,452 --> 00:17:59,872
Morgan's patience runs out.
330
00:17:59,955 --> 00:18:03,458
Like, you could see her
more withdrawn than usual,
331
00:18:03,542 --> 00:18:06,879
where Morgan usually was
very spunky and happy.
332
00:18:08,797 --> 00:18:11,258
Morgan is done sitting on the sidelines.
333
00:18:11,592 --> 00:18:15,637
Furious and supported by Michelle,
she takes action.
334
00:18:15,721 --> 00:18:19,892
My solution to, you know,
our conversation was,
335
00:18:19,975 --> 00:18:21,894
why don't I reach out to HR,
336
00:18:21,977 --> 00:18:24,730
the head of HR in Columbus,
337
00:18:24,813 --> 00:18:28,525
and see if maybe she can do something?
338
00:18:29,568 --> 00:18:32,946
This is an excerpt from
the email that I sent to HR.
339
00:18:33,906 --> 00:18:36,617
"Morgan Fox asked to
speak with me yesterday
340
00:18:36,700 --> 00:18:40,412
"about some issues she is
having as an ops manager.
341
00:18:40,495 --> 00:18:42,331
"Apparently, someone took her phone.
342
00:18:42,414 --> 00:18:45,459
"She believes private items were looked at
343
00:18:45,542 --> 00:18:48,337
by at least two to three
people in the building."
344
00:18:50,130 --> 00:18:52,049
It felt better.
Like, okay, great.
345
00:18:52,132 --> 00:18:53,217
This, you know,
346
00:18:53,300 --> 00:18:56,136
some of these issues
have been put on paper.
347
00:18:56,220 --> 00:18:58,972
Like, they're known. Now, they're known.
348
00:18:59,056 --> 00:19:00,849
This is what's going on,
and maybe there will be
349
00:19:00,933 --> 00:19:03,268
some kind of resolution for,
for Morgan.
350
00:19:04,937 --> 00:19:09,399
But, there was no response to the email.
351
00:19:10,484 --> 00:19:13,695
Another week goes by,
and she has still heard nothing.
352
00:19:14,613 --> 00:19:16,823
Morgan has had it.
353
00:19:16,907 --> 00:19:18,325
That was her final straw.
354
00:19:18,408 --> 00:19:20,661
She wanted something done about this.
355
00:19:20,744 --> 00:19:22,746
Like, they, they were just
harassing her so much
356
00:19:22,829 --> 00:19:24,248
that she wanted it addressed.
357
00:19:24,331 --> 00:19:26,458
The tension was boiling over.
358
00:19:27,668 --> 00:19:30,128
She stood up for herself.
She stood up for the things
359
00:19:30,212 --> 00:19:33,048
that were going on at the workplace
that were hostile.
360
00:19:34,341 --> 00:19:37,636
On October 28th,
as soon as I went in to work,
361
00:19:37,719 --> 00:19:41,473
I looked for Morgan
because I had anticipated
362
00:19:41,557 --> 00:19:43,267
that we would have a conversation.
363
00:19:43,350 --> 00:19:45,227
I texted her.
364
00:19:45,310 --> 00:19:46,728
She never answered.
365
00:19:46,812 --> 00:19:49,606
Police had called and told me...
366
00:19:50,524 --> 00:19:51,984
that Morgan had passed.
367
00:19:53,735 --> 00:19:56,905
I was completely shocked, horrified,
368
00:19:56,989 --> 00:19:59,408
and confused.
369
00:20:00,701 --> 00:20:03,662
All these people at work
were bothering her,
370
00:20:03,745 --> 00:20:07,624
and I thought,
did one of those people hurt her?
371
00:20:09,334 --> 00:20:11,044
The investigators need to talk
372
00:20:11,128 --> 00:20:13,380
to all of the men
involved with the incident.
373
00:20:14,506 --> 00:20:17,718
So they start with Morgan's friend
Jason McDermitt.
374
00:20:19,261 --> 00:20:23,140
Maybe he can shed some light
on why Morgan was being targeted at work.
375
00:20:29,688 --> 00:20:33,108
The coworker crushes, swirling jealousy,
376
00:20:33,192 --> 00:20:34,776
and workplace bullying.
377
00:20:35,569 --> 00:20:37,696
Could Jason McDermitt hold the key
378
00:20:37,779 --> 00:20:41,366
to solving the mystery
of who killed Morgan Fox?
379
00:20:47,706 --> 00:20:50,792
Morgan Fox was pushing her way
through the glass ceiling
380
00:20:50,876 --> 00:20:53,462
at FedEx as a manager,
381
00:20:53,545 --> 00:20:56,215
possibly making a few enemies
along the way.
382
00:20:56,298 --> 00:21:00,260
A pattern of jealousy,
betrayal, and harassment
383
00:21:00,344 --> 00:21:03,430
from a small group of male
coworkers is uncovered.
384
00:21:04,890 --> 00:21:06,600
But what detectives want to know
385
00:21:06,683 --> 00:21:09,269
from Morgan's friend Jason McDermitt is
386
00:21:09,353 --> 00:21:13,106
could one of these workplace
bullies be a murderer?
387
00:21:52,980 --> 00:21:56,942
McDermitt's statements seemed
to point back at their first suspect,
388
00:21:57,025 --> 00:22:00,028
Morgan's boyfriend, Jason Scarnecchia.
389
00:22:00,112 --> 00:22:03,031
-But then, McDermitt says something
390
00:22:03,115 --> 00:22:04,491
that catches them off guard.
391
00:22:19,464 --> 00:22:21,884
If McDermitt
doesn't think Morgan's boyfriend
392
00:22:21,967 --> 00:22:25,637
is capable of murder,
perhaps he knows who is.
393
00:22:43,739 --> 00:22:46,575
The investigators want
to know more about the cell phone incident
394
00:22:46,658 --> 00:22:49,077
with her male colleagues a few weeks back,
395
00:22:49,620 --> 00:22:53,040
an incident McDermitt is
intimately familiar with.
396
00:23:21,318 --> 00:23:23,487
It's no secret that Morgan had issues
397
00:23:23,570 --> 00:23:27,032
with her coworkers after
being violated like that.
398
00:23:27,115 --> 00:23:29,910
But would anyone go to the extreme
to murder her over it
399
00:23:29,993 --> 00:23:32,663
after she went to HR?
400
00:23:32,788 --> 00:23:37,125
McDermitt doesn't have a clue,
so he's free to go.
401
00:23:37,668 --> 00:23:41,421
And his instincts about
Morgan's boyfriend were right.
402
00:23:41,505 --> 00:23:43,632
The absence of gunpowder
residue in their home
403
00:23:43,715 --> 00:23:48,262
and on his body clear
any suspicion of Jason Scarnecchia.
404
00:23:48,345 --> 00:23:51,265
He couldn't have been the person
to fire the gun.
405
00:23:53,183 --> 00:23:56,228
I never really thought
it was Jason Scarnecchia.
406
00:23:56,311 --> 00:23:58,772
Like, it just wasn't...
it wasn't his character.
407
00:24:00,023 --> 00:24:02,943
So Morgan's boyfriend
joins the rest of her family
408
00:24:03,026 --> 00:24:06,029
as they continue to grapple
with this senseless tragedy.
409
00:24:07,281 --> 00:24:10,325
Watching my family, especially Cyndi,
410
00:24:10,409 --> 00:24:11,869
Morgan's mom,
411
00:24:11,952 --> 00:24:14,288
lose a child,
412
00:24:14,371 --> 00:24:17,082
and her daughter, Emilia,
to lose a mother,
413
00:24:17,165 --> 00:24:19,001
her only parent,
414
00:24:19,084 --> 00:24:23,046
you can't really describe the trauma,
the heartbreak, the feelings.
415
00:24:25,090 --> 00:24:27,217
I just have to trust that the detectives
416
00:24:27,301 --> 00:24:29,803
and the police are going to do their job.
417
00:24:34,183 --> 00:24:38,061
But when something so heinous
happens in your own family,
418
00:24:38,145 --> 00:24:39,938
your own community,
419
00:24:40,022 --> 00:24:43,275
no one can be prepared
for that kind of shock.
420
00:24:43,358 --> 00:24:46,612
This was probably one of
the most emotional cases
421
00:24:46,695 --> 00:24:50,657
just because the senselessness
of the killing.
422
00:24:50,741 --> 00:24:54,536
You have an innocent victim
who hasn't done anything.
423
00:24:55,621 --> 00:24:58,540
And a girl who lost her mom,
424
00:24:58,624 --> 00:25:00,959
and they were the two
closest people in the world.
425
00:25:01,043 --> 00:25:04,505
♪ Under the weight of your shadow ♪
426
00:25:04,588 --> 00:25:07,174
You've got a family
that's lost a loved one,
427
00:25:07,257 --> 00:25:08,926
and they wanna see some justice done.
428
00:25:09,635 --> 00:25:11,303
Bringing them justice falls on me.
429
00:25:11,386 --> 00:25:16,391
♪ Cold, cold world ♪
430
00:25:19,645 --> 00:25:23,440
But first,
detectives have to find Morgan's killer.
431
00:25:24,066 --> 00:25:28,320
And nearly 10 hours after her body
was found in her driveway,
432
00:25:28,403 --> 00:25:30,822
detectives get a lucky break.
433
00:25:30,906 --> 00:25:34,117
An anonymous tip about
one of Morgan's bosses
434
00:25:34,201 --> 00:25:38,622
sends the investigators racing back
to FedEx for another interview.
435
00:25:40,499 --> 00:25:42,251
Morgan Fox may have been having an affair
436
00:25:42,334 --> 00:25:45,754
with one of the higher-ups at the company.
437
00:25:46,964 --> 00:25:48,549
Very suspicious.
438
00:25:49,174 --> 00:25:51,593
Could the tension and jealousy
439
00:25:51,677 --> 00:25:54,096
surrounding a hidden romance
in the workplace
440
00:25:54,471 --> 00:25:56,723
be the reason for Morgan's tragic end?
441
00:25:57,891 --> 00:26:01,270
With no time to waste,
the detectives are on the hunt
442
00:26:01,353 --> 00:26:03,146
for their next big lead.
443
00:26:04,356 --> 00:26:07,901
We went to this person's residence.
444
00:26:07,985 --> 00:26:10,779
We spoke to his wife, ex-wife.
445
00:26:10,863 --> 00:26:14,700
They were just recently divorced,
and she told us where we could find him.
446
00:26:14,783 --> 00:26:17,035
So that's where we went
to get ahold of him
447
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:18,662
and bring him in for an interview.
448
00:26:19,705 --> 00:26:23,292
He was hesitant,
didn't wanna come in, but he did.
449
00:26:23,375 --> 00:26:26,420
Salacious tales of a workplace affair
450
00:26:27,171 --> 00:26:29,673
and a new person of interest.
451
00:26:29,756 --> 00:26:33,427
Someone at FedEx could be Morgan's killer.
452
00:26:33,510 --> 00:26:36,930
There was a lotta talk,
a lotta rumors going back and forth.
453
00:26:37,014 --> 00:26:39,766
Could this anonymous caller
be onto something
454
00:26:39,850 --> 00:26:41,560
that no one saw coming?
455
00:26:49,735 --> 00:26:52,654
Stories about tense workplace harassment
456
00:26:52,738 --> 00:26:53,822
have sent investigators
457
00:26:53,906 --> 00:26:56,909
looking into a tip
about a possible affair.
458
00:26:56,992 --> 00:27:00,537
Is it possible this had something
to do with her murder?
459
00:27:00,621 --> 00:27:03,707
He gave consent at first
to look through his phone.
460
00:27:03,790 --> 00:27:06,251
It was his work phone.
There were so many blocks,
461
00:27:06,335 --> 00:27:08,003
we couldn't really see anything in it.
462
00:27:08,086 --> 00:27:10,964
Morgan's boss denies the affair.
463
00:27:11,924 --> 00:27:16,178
Is he hiding something?
The answers could be
464
00:27:16,261 --> 00:27:17,638
in his locked phone.
465
00:27:17,721 --> 00:27:20,891
When we told him we're just gonna
have to keep this for further analysis,
466
00:27:20,974 --> 00:27:23,018
he was not happy at all.
467
00:27:24,478 --> 00:27:25,938
A few hours later,
468
00:27:26,021 --> 00:27:28,065
the lab analysis
of his phone comes back,
469
00:27:28,148 --> 00:27:29,149
and it's clear...
470
00:27:31,151 --> 00:27:32,778
...this is not their guy.
471
00:27:35,531 --> 00:27:39,243
They got their kids together
for a little get-together,
472
00:27:39,326 --> 00:27:42,371
but that's the extent of
the relationship that we found.
473
00:27:42,454 --> 00:27:45,916
There was a lotta talk,
a lotta rumors going back and forth.
474
00:27:45,999 --> 00:27:48,627
You know how gossip
goes around with people.
475
00:27:49,461 --> 00:27:51,964
Is this anonymous tip
just another instance
476
00:27:52,047 --> 00:27:55,759
of Morgan's colleagues taunting her,
even after her death?
477
00:27:56,802 --> 00:28:00,347
Or is it a killer's attempt
to throw the detectives off their trail?
478
00:28:01,515 --> 00:28:05,102
Detectives go back to
Morgan's toxic work situation
479
00:28:05,185 --> 00:28:08,605
and the cell phone incident
that might have started it all.
480
00:28:08,689 --> 00:28:13,569
We got the phones of most
of the men she was having issues with.
481
00:28:13,652 --> 00:28:16,029
Those people were quickly ruled out
482
00:28:16,113 --> 00:28:19,241
based upon things we found
in Morgan's phone,
483
00:28:19,324 --> 00:28:22,035
things we found in their phone
when they let us look at it.
484
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,037
One guy had an alibi.
485
00:28:24,121 --> 00:28:27,291
But the one person we couldn't
rule out was Jason McDermitt.
486
00:28:30,210 --> 00:28:31,879
In order to unravel the truth
487
00:28:31,962 --> 00:28:34,464
about what was really going on at FedEx,
488
00:28:34,548 --> 00:28:37,259
investigators call in some help.
489
00:28:38,677 --> 00:28:39,845
I'm Bryan Johnson.
490
00:28:39,928 --> 00:28:41,763
I work for the Stark County
Sheriff's Office.
491
00:28:41,847 --> 00:28:43,390
I'm a sergeant detective,
492
00:28:43,473 --> 00:28:46,059
and I assisted with investigating
Morgan's murder.
493
00:28:47,060 --> 00:28:49,396
We ultimately had to get
a search warrant
494
00:28:49,479 --> 00:28:52,399
for FedEx and obtain personnel files,
495
00:28:52,482 --> 00:28:56,153
and I was able to obtain security videos
496
00:28:56,236 --> 00:28:58,280
inside of their warehouse,
497
00:28:58,363 --> 00:29:02,284
particularly for the incident
that occurred on October 8th.
498
00:29:02,826 --> 00:29:06,580
Jason McDermitt took
Morgan Fox's phone off of a desk.
499
00:29:07,873 --> 00:29:09,249
For 50 minutes...
500
00:29:12,711 --> 00:29:14,421
...he was looking at her phone.
501
00:29:18,300 --> 00:29:21,637
There was nothing done from
that incident on October 8th.
502
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,223
According to Jason,
503
00:29:24,306 --> 00:29:26,892
he simply retrieved the phone,
504
00:29:26,975 --> 00:29:28,685
like any good friend would do.
505
00:29:28,769 --> 00:29:30,354
But according to the video,
506
00:29:30,437 --> 00:29:33,607
he spent way more time swiping through it.
507
00:29:33,690 --> 00:29:36,902
Now that the detectives know McDermitt
lied about the phone incident,
508
00:29:36,985 --> 00:29:41,114
they start to take a closer look
at how he acted in the workplace.
509
00:29:41,198 --> 00:29:42,699
Jason McDermitt's coworkers
510
00:29:42,783 --> 00:29:45,994
told us that after
that October 8th incident,
511
00:29:46,078 --> 00:29:48,038
he talked to several of them about,
512
00:29:48,121 --> 00:29:51,083
"How can I get Morgan back into my life?"
513
00:29:52,334 --> 00:29:56,964
Then, Jason's file reveals
that this mild-mannered friend
514
00:29:57,047 --> 00:30:00,217
is more dangerous
than anyone could have thought.
515
00:30:00,300 --> 00:30:04,471
Jason McDermitt's personnel file,
um, unknown to us,
516
00:30:04,555 --> 00:30:07,349
had not only the incident
517
00:30:07,432 --> 00:30:10,727
with Morgan Fox on October 8th,
518
00:30:10,811 --> 00:30:13,772
but it also had an incident
from that same year
519
00:30:13,856 --> 00:30:15,315
from June 6th.
520
00:30:18,527 --> 00:30:21,488
Cyanna Clements interview, take one.
521
00:30:21,864 --> 00:30:26,285
My name is Cyanna Clements.
I started FedEx back in 2019.
522
00:30:26,368 --> 00:30:27,744
I was 18 years old.
523
00:30:29,246 --> 00:30:31,248
When I first met Jason McDermitt,
524
00:30:31,331 --> 00:30:33,166
they threw me up into the sort tower,
525
00:30:33,250 --> 00:30:35,210
so he was actually
training me at the time.
526
00:30:36,336 --> 00:30:37,838
After a few months,
527
00:30:37,921 --> 00:30:41,383
Cyanna felt comfortable enough
to ask Jason for some help.
528
00:30:41,466 --> 00:30:43,635
Back in 2019 of September,
529
00:30:43,719 --> 00:30:46,722
I lost my license
due to a traffic infraction.
530
00:30:46,805 --> 00:30:49,099
I started getting rides
from Jason McDermitt.
531
00:30:49,183 --> 00:30:50,767
A few months later,
532
00:30:50,851 --> 00:30:53,896
one of Cyanna's other friends
gets a job at FedEx, too,
533
00:30:53,979 --> 00:30:56,315
so she stops getting rides with Jason.
534
00:30:57,691 --> 00:30:59,776
That's when things get weird.
535
00:30:59,860 --> 00:31:02,321
Jason McDermitt would
get on my social media
536
00:31:02,404 --> 00:31:05,282
and just start commenting on everything,
537
00:31:05,365 --> 00:31:06,658
inboxing me,
538
00:31:06,742 --> 00:31:08,785
whether it's my TikTok,
539
00:31:08,869 --> 00:31:11,371
Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook.
540
00:31:11,455 --> 00:31:14,625
He wanted to know
what I was doing at all times.
541
00:31:14,708 --> 00:31:17,753
He started being very persistent.
542
00:31:19,588 --> 00:31:21,215
He would text.
If I didn't answer,
543
00:31:21,298 --> 00:31:23,717
text again, text again,
544
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,303
-over and over and over and over again.
545
00:31:27,513 --> 00:31:30,724
You knew he was creepy,
but you didn't know he was that creepy.
546
00:31:30,974 --> 00:31:32,643
I didn't wanna be around him no more.
547
00:31:32,726 --> 00:31:35,145
I didn't wanna have
contact with him no more.
548
00:31:35,229 --> 00:31:36,480
You know, like, leave me alone.
549
00:31:38,273 --> 00:31:41,109
One day during
Cyanna's counseling session,
550
00:31:41,777 --> 00:31:45,197
Jason McDermitt took things
to a terrifying new level.
551
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,157
I was at my court counselor.
552
00:31:47,241 --> 00:31:49,993
Just got a ride from my friend,
got dropped off.
553
00:31:50,619 --> 00:31:54,540
The session starts,
and Cyanna catches a glimpse of a familiar
554
00:31:54,623 --> 00:31:56,792
and frightening sight.
555
00:31:56,875 --> 00:31:58,710
You see that blue little car...
556
00:31:59,795 --> 00:32:02,130
right in front of the door.
557
00:32:02,214 --> 00:32:03,423
And then he sits out there.
558
00:32:04,216 --> 00:32:06,260
Like Morgan would do months later,
559
00:32:06,343 --> 00:32:08,470
Cyanna files a complaint.
560
00:32:08,554 --> 00:32:10,973
I remember going to my managers at FedEx
561
00:32:11,056 --> 00:32:13,600
for the reasoning of feeling harassed
562
00:32:13,684 --> 00:32:15,435
and just overwhelmed with the situation
563
00:32:15,519 --> 00:32:18,605
because I got to the point,
I had no idea what to do.
564
00:32:19,982 --> 00:32:23,485
And like Morgan,
she received a similar response.
565
00:32:23,861 --> 00:32:25,904
At the end of the day,
nothing got handled.
566
00:32:25,988 --> 00:32:28,073
About a month later, the manager,
567
00:32:28,156 --> 00:32:30,742
he pulled me into the office
and let me go.
568
00:32:32,035 --> 00:32:36,206
Cyanna's tale of being
stalked by Jason is scary,
569
00:32:36,290 --> 00:32:40,669
but there's no evidence
that he was doing the same to Morgan.
570
00:32:40,752 --> 00:32:42,629
So the detectives keep digging
571
00:32:42,713 --> 00:32:47,009
as Morgan's family and coworkers
keep reeling with shock.
572
00:32:47,092 --> 00:32:50,846
Morgan's sister-in-law made a flyer,
um, and it just said, like,
573
00:32:50,929 --> 00:32:53,640
"Please help bring justice to Morgan."
574
00:32:53,724 --> 00:32:57,603
I remember going through my Facebook
and seeing who was posting.
575
00:32:57,686 --> 00:33:00,647
Other people that were
at FedEx weren't posting,
576
00:33:00,731 --> 00:33:03,025
but Jason McDermitt's been
there three times now.
577
00:33:04,193 --> 00:33:08,280
Changing his profile picture,
making these big, long posts.
578
00:33:08,363 --> 00:33:11,366
Something, for me, was not... not right.
579
00:33:14,494 --> 00:33:17,581
With concerns
mounting from Morgan's family,
580
00:33:17,664 --> 00:33:19,666
Ross speaks to Jason's parents
581
00:33:19,750 --> 00:33:23,128
to see if he can connect him
to the scene of Morgan's murder.
582
00:33:23,212 --> 00:33:25,672
The dad I talked to first.
He said it had been months
583
00:33:25,756 --> 00:33:28,300
since Jason McDermitt had been home.
584
00:33:29,218 --> 00:33:30,761
But mom said, "Oh, no.
585
00:33:30,844 --> 00:33:34,181
"He stopped the other day
to pick up some mail,
586
00:33:34,264 --> 00:33:36,433
"and that's the last time I really saw him
587
00:33:36,517 --> 00:33:38,310
until the morning of the, the murder."
588
00:33:39,478 --> 00:33:41,563
On a hunch, Detective Ross asks
589
00:33:41,647 --> 00:33:43,857
if there are any firearms in the house.
590
00:33:43,941 --> 00:33:46,652
McDermitt's dad took us to his gun locker.
591
00:33:46,735 --> 00:33:49,863
It was locked,
but the key was six feet away
592
00:33:49,947 --> 00:33:51,698
in a drawer at the work bench.
593
00:33:52,491 --> 00:33:55,953
Jason McDermitt's father
allowed us to take
594
00:33:56,036 --> 00:33:59,248
several of his handguns that
we believed were similar calibers
595
00:33:59,331 --> 00:34:02,543
to the ones that killed Morgan Fox.
596
00:34:02,626 --> 00:34:06,630
We were able to send those
to the crime lab for analysis.
597
00:34:06,713 --> 00:34:08,757
And when the results come back,
598
00:34:08,841 --> 00:34:12,928
one gun from the McDermitts'
residence is a potential match
599
00:34:13,011 --> 00:34:15,472
to the same gun used to kill Morgan.
600
00:34:17,182 --> 00:34:21,603
And now, it's becoming clearer
to us that this is our guy.
601
00:34:21,687 --> 00:34:24,231
We just gotta get enough
evidence to prove it.
602
00:34:24,314 --> 00:34:26,483
Digging deeper,
603
00:34:26,567 --> 00:34:29,903
Ross scrutinizes McDermitt's
interview from October 28th
604
00:34:29,987 --> 00:34:32,906
and uncovers a curious omission.
605
00:34:34,283 --> 00:34:37,953
The day of Morgan Fox's homicide,
606
00:34:38,036 --> 00:34:39,663
when I made contact with McDermitt,
607
00:34:39,746 --> 00:34:41,790
we noticed his car was clean.
608
00:34:42,124 --> 00:34:44,084
He told us that he had just
ran it through the car wash
609
00:34:44,168 --> 00:34:47,379
on the way to his parents'
house that morning.
610
00:34:47,462 --> 00:34:49,506
But when the other detectives
611
00:34:49,590 --> 00:34:51,466
spoke to him at the sheriff's station,
612
00:34:51,550 --> 00:34:54,553
McDermitt switched things up.
613
00:34:54,636 --> 00:34:56,054
When asked where did you go from work,
614
00:34:56,138 --> 00:34:58,015
McDermitt left that information out.
615
00:34:58,098 --> 00:35:00,267
He didn't say he stopped at the car wash.
616
00:35:00,350 --> 00:35:02,352
I knew he stopped at the car wash.
617
00:35:05,314 --> 00:35:08,609
Ross heads to Sheetz Car Wash
to ask for the surveillance footage.
618
00:35:10,777 --> 00:35:13,822
I watched all of that.
All the video downloaded on a disk,
619
00:35:13,906 --> 00:35:17,201
and saw McDermitt pull into the car wash,
620
00:35:17,284 --> 00:35:20,162
slowly pull through the chassis wash,
621
00:35:20,245 --> 00:35:21,997
and then back up.
622
00:35:23,373 --> 00:35:26,543
And then slowly pull through
the chassis wash again,
623
00:35:26,627 --> 00:35:29,922
making sure the front of
that vehicle was washed.
624
00:35:30,005 --> 00:35:32,257
That is why those tire impressions
625
00:35:32,341 --> 00:35:34,259
were on the scene of the homicide.
626
00:35:37,429 --> 00:35:39,723
This vehicle left that tire impression
627
00:35:39,806 --> 00:35:42,267
and had mud in the wheel well
628
00:35:42,351 --> 00:35:44,686
and on the wheel,
and that's why he went to the car wash.
629
00:35:48,357 --> 00:35:50,359
So, once I get the search warrant
for McDermitt's car,
630
00:35:50,442 --> 00:35:52,945
I go to his parents' house where he was,
631
00:35:53,028 --> 00:35:54,530
and I have a tow truck
632
00:35:54,613 --> 00:35:56,615
transport it back to the sheriff's office.
633
00:35:56,698 --> 00:36:00,452
We had the dog that's capable
of smelling explosives
634
00:36:00,536 --> 00:36:03,997
do a sniff around it, and he indicated
635
00:36:04,081 --> 00:36:07,668
that there was the odor of explosives.
636
00:36:07,751 --> 00:36:10,712
And that means to us that,
at some point in time,
637
00:36:10,796 --> 00:36:12,464
there was a gun there,
638
00:36:12,548 --> 00:36:14,967
which was a big piece of evidence.
639
00:36:15,050 --> 00:36:18,846
But so far,
the evidence is purely circumstantial.
640
00:36:18,929 --> 00:36:22,599
To us, that was just
another piece of the puzzle
641
00:36:22,683 --> 00:36:24,017
that we're putting together.
642
00:36:24,309 --> 00:36:27,479
The investigators need one final piece
643
00:36:27,563 --> 00:36:30,524
of solid evidence to catch Morgan's killer
644
00:36:30,607 --> 00:36:33,235
and make an arrest.
645
00:36:33,318 --> 00:36:37,197
The most powerful evidence we had
was something we found on her computer.
646
00:36:44,079 --> 00:36:48,041
Morgan Fox wasn't going
to let anyone push her around.
647
00:36:48,500 --> 00:36:52,171
But that same confidence
put a target on her back.
648
00:36:53,172 --> 00:36:55,090
The evidence that proves Jason McDermitt
649
00:36:55,174 --> 00:36:57,968
is Morgan's killer is stacking up,
650
00:36:58,051 --> 00:37:00,470
but there's no smoking gun just yet.
651
00:37:00,554 --> 00:37:03,265
We're still doing a lot of
leg work, a lot of investigating,
652
00:37:03,348 --> 00:37:05,058
trying to find anything we can.
653
00:37:05,142 --> 00:37:07,436
If the detectives can place McDermitt
654
00:37:07,519 --> 00:37:09,313
at the scene of the crime,
655
00:37:09,396 --> 00:37:12,608
they may have just enough
evidence to make an arrest.
656
00:37:12,691 --> 00:37:13,984
I mapped
657
00:37:14,067 --> 00:37:16,945
several routes around
McDermitt's apartment
658
00:37:17,029 --> 00:37:18,989
to Morgan Fox's house.
659
00:37:19,072 --> 00:37:22,326
With all of the video footage
that I was able to obtain
660
00:37:22,409 --> 00:37:24,077
from the city of North Canton,
661
00:37:24,161 --> 00:37:25,454
we were able to identify
662
00:37:25,537 --> 00:37:28,290
one vehicle in that area
663
00:37:28,957 --> 00:37:31,084
that matched the timeframe
that she was murdered,
664
00:37:31,168 --> 00:37:33,545
and that was Jason McDermitt's vehicle.
665
00:37:33,629 --> 00:37:35,589
Bingo.
666
00:37:36,882 --> 00:37:38,967
With all the information
we were to gather,
667
00:37:39,051 --> 00:37:42,429
we were able to get probable cause
for an arrest warrant for Jason McDermitt.
668
00:37:44,056 --> 00:37:47,559
About a week after
Morgan's life was cut short,
669
00:37:47,643 --> 00:37:50,812
detectives take Jason McDermitt
into custody.
670
00:37:52,064 --> 00:37:55,317
McDermitt's fixation
with Morgan was evident,
671
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:59,863
but an analysis of his cell phone confirms
he was stalking her as well.
672
00:37:59,947 --> 00:38:02,491
We found at least 100 pictures of Morgan
673
00:38:02,574 --> 00:38:04,868
that he had surreptitiously obtained.
674
00:38:04,952 --> 00:38:07,996
Her Snapchats, TikToks.
675
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:12,042
We also found multiple videos
that he had recorded
676
00:38:12,125 --> 00:38:13,877
of Morgan while she was at work.
677
00:38:17,548 --> 00:38:19,174
I guess they want it done now.
678
00:38:19,258 --> 00:38:21,426
In addition to that, there was a day
679
00:38:21,510 --> 00:38:23,554
that he went over to Morgan's house,
680
00:38:23,637 --> 00:38:26,557
videotaping her without her knowledge.
681
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,684
She was bending over,
getting stuff out of the kitchen.
682
00:38:28,767 --> 00:38:31,186
I dunno, eventually...
683
00:38:31,270 --> 00:38:33,480
And he just has his phone out,
recording her.
684
00:38:33,564 --> 00:38:35,315
And then,
685
00:38:35,399 --> 00:38:37,818
texts to a coworker clinches it.
686
00:38:37,901 --> 00:38:41,154
He wasn't just upset Morgan
ended their friendship.
687
00:38:41,238 --> 00:38:45,200
He was scared she was going to
make trouble for him at work as well.
688
00:38:45,742 --> 00:38:49,955
When prosecutors look closer
at Morgan's laptop,
689
00:38:50,038 --> 00:38:53,333
they find one final critical
piece of evidence
690
00:38:53,417 --> 00:38:56,128
pointing directly to Morgan's killer.
691
00:38:56,211 --> 00:38:58,172
The most powerful evidence we had
692
00:38:58,255 --> 00:39:00,424
was something we found on her computer.
693
00:39:01,550 --> 00:39:03,844
One day before her murder,
694
00:39:03,927 --> 00:39:06,388
Morgan was insistent on
someone acknowledging
695
00:39:06,471 --> 00:39:09,892
and taking action about
her toxic work situation.
696
00:39:09,975 --> 00:39:13,103
Morgan felt like she had
exhausted all of her options
697
00:39:13,187 --> 00:39:15,355
at FedEx.
698
00:39:15,439 --> 00:39:19,318
On the 27th, I had said to her,
699
00:39:19,401 --> 00:39:22,404
"Why don't you reach out to HR yourself?
700
00:39:23,030 --> 00:39:26,325
"I can help you with that letter.
You can CC me.
701
00:39:26,408 --> 00:39:29,786
We can talk about it tomorrow and,
and go over that if you'd like."
702
00:39:31,914 --> 00:39:35,209
Morgan never made it to work that day.
703
00:39:36,418 --> 00:39:39,171
But what the investigators
find within that email
704
00:39:39,254 --> 00:39:43,217
contains exactly what they need
to convict Morgan's killer.
705
00:39:44,593 --> 00:39:47,679
"I feel like I'm being targeted at work.
706
00:39:48,263 --> 00:39:51,892
"I'm sure speaking with you
is just going to make things for me
707
00:39:51,975 --> 00:39:55,479
at work even worse, but at this point,
I have no other choice."
708
00:39:57,439 --> 00:40:00,776
Morgan wasn't going
to stop advocating for herself.
709
00:40:00,859 --> 00:40:04,363
Jason McDermitt was
specifically named in the email.
710
00:40:04,446 --> 00:40:07,616
And he had a feeling that Morgan
was going to get him fired.
711
00:40:09,159 --> 00:40:13,163
Morgan's email proves that
his suspicions were correct.
712
00:40:13,247 --> 00:40:15,832
HR finally responded to Morgan's request
713
00:40:15,916 --> 00:40:17,960
to set up a call the following day.
714
00:40:18,043 --> 00:40:20,170
But by then, it was too late.
715
00:40:22,172 --> 00:40:24,591
This gives the prosecution
everything they need
716
00:40:24,675 --> 00:40:26,844
to show that this was the catalyst
717
00:40:26,927 --> 00:40:29,930
that turned Jason from
stalker to murderer.
718
00:40:30,013 --> 00:40:33,100
Stalking is a sign of obsession,
719
00:40:33,767 --> 00:40:37,437
and obsession oftentimes leads to murder.

Jason McDermitt got a sentence of

life without the possibility of parole.
727
00:40:55,831 --> 00:40:59,084
When Emilia took the stands
and gave her victim statement
728
00:40:59,168 --> 00:41:01,461
is the only time Jason McDermitt
729
00:41:01,545 --> 00:41:04,256
shows any remorse, anything.
730
00:41:04,339 --> 00:41:06,508
Morgan Fox's 8-year-old daughter
731
00:41:06,592 --> 00:41:08,844
spoke in open court before sentencing.
732
00:41:08,927 --> 00:41:11,847
I wish she could
see me graduate from high school.

736
00:41:19,730 --> 00:41:21,899
You hurt so many people.

I'm a pretty tough guy,
740
00:41:29,698 --> 00:41:31,992
but that statement almost
brought me to tears.
741
00:41:34,411 --> 00:41:35,787
It was so powerful.
742
00:41:35,871 --> 00:41:39,666
Morgan now serves as an example to all.

Don't back down.
Make yourself heard.
744

Justice for Morgan Fox was served here,
745
00:41:47,174 --> 00:41:49,009
and I think the family was satisfied
746
00:41:49,092 --> 00:41:52,304
with the fact that
he can't hurt anyone else.

the Morgan Ashlye Fox Foundation

Morgan did it.
Morgan sent the letter.

Morgan put the letter together,
765
00:42:48,110 --> 00:42:51,530
and she was brave and courageous,
and hit send.
766
