to make headlines in the decades
3:34
and fall. And we were talking about.
3:36
Really? Three killers here. Yes,
3:39
To. Them. Serial. Killers
3:41
who happened to be brothers
3:43
who acted independently. Basic.
3:45
Story. Sorry. Buddy Are you a
3:47
to get into this episode of True
3:49
Crime all the time? I'm so I
3:52
am ready. Were talking about the Curia
3:54
family murders. On. July Twenty ninth.
3:56
Two Thousand And Seven. Jane.
3:58
Syria was enjoy. A visit
4:00
from her family. Who. Lived in Tinge.
4:03
Jane. Her three children and
4:05
a young cousin. Who. Was
4:07
saying over. went to bed
4:10
and were bludgeoned. In.
4:12
Their sleep. Jane. And her
4:14
daughters died from their injuries. But
4:16
her son and his cousin server.
4:19
Once. They recovered. They. Had no
4:21
memories of the attack. And. This
4:23
was. Obviously a very
4:26
horrific triple murder that
4:28
remains unsolved today. And
4:30
I'm surprised they don't recall anything that happens
4:32
a lot. and some of these cases when
4:34
they've had. Severe. Head Trauma. Yeah.
4:37
And I'm sure their age may have played a
4:39
factors well. Jane. Curia and
4:41
her children were originally from
4:43
Kenya. Sources: Didn't.
4:46
Really provide much information about
4:48
James early life and articles
4:50
even listed different ages for
4:53
her. At. The time of her
4:55
death. Some. Articles reported that she
4:57
was young as forty two, while
4:59
others said she was forty nine
5:02
years old. And unfortunately this
5:04
is something we run into side
5:06
a bit. You know, we
5:08
looked through so many different
5:10
articles while researching a case
5:13
and you just fine. Differences.
5:16
In the report. Now
5:18
sometimes you can find a
5:20
nos. To settle on.
5:22
Something. Being a fact. Sometimes.
5:25
You can't. So. What I will
5:27
say is it to say the James
5:30
in her forties. She had three
5:32
children. Two daughters and a son.
5:34
Her. Daughter Isabella was nineteen years
5:37
old when she was murdered.
5:39
Annabel was sixteen years old.
5:42
And. Jeremy was a. At the
5:44
time of the attack. Although. There
5:46
were some sources that listed him
5:48
as seven. Relatives. Described
5:51
how Isabella. And
5:53
Annabel loved and spoiled their
5:56
little brother. A. Man he
5:58
love to hear that. Because. You
6:00
know, often times we hear
6:03
about. The. Say there's two
6:05
older sisters. And they like to gang
6:07
up. On. Their their younger
6:09
brother and in torment him.
6:12
And. In the other way around
6:14
as well sometimes. but. I
6:16
always like to hear about
6:18
older siblings. You. Loving,
6:21
spoiling, protecting, Their.
6:24
Youngest ever yeah it is Give
6:26
you a really good feel emitters.
6:28
What aca a new loved year
6:30
old. Difference between. Between. Him
6:32
and. And. So that probably has
6:34
something to do with yet. Your.
6:36
They result like they were. You.
6:39
Nine, Eleven And Thirteen.
6:41
Okay, maybe they would have been a little
6:43
more friction. If. That was the case,
6:46
James. Nephew Mark to mob.
6:49
Did. An interview for the show
6:51
still a mystery where he
6:53
described. Isabella is calm and
6:55
collected. She. Was also a
6:57
highly intelligent straight a student.
7:00
It was sad that Annabel
7:02
loved children and participated in
7:05
church leadership. So. I had a
7:07
lot in common with Isabella. Calm. Collected
7:09
straight a student. highly intelligent.
7:11
Well, he said enemy, but
7:13
thank you. But. Here
7:15
again, as we often. Hear.
7:18
Her. Talking about. People.
7:21
Who. Are victims of
7:23
a horrible crime? And. We
7:25
find out that to just amazing
7:27
people. yeah they're just. Levin.
7:29
Lies doing within. And. Just doing the
7:31
right thing. Jane. And her children
7:33
left Kenyan January two thousand and
7:36
one. After her husband died
7:38
in their home was destroyed. Sources:
7:41
Didn't specify how their home
7:43
was destroyed. However, it was
7:46
reported the Jane and her
7:48
husband were target because of
7:50
their opposition to female genital
7:52
mutilation. Is. In L a strange thing
7:54
to be targeted for. When. You're saying?
7:57
A. Is Not right? And
7:59
someone. Decides that. They.
8:01
Want to target you? Heard chew?
8:04
Over. That believe Yeah yeah. Female.
8:07
Genital mutilation comprises all
8:09
procedures that involve partial
8:12
or total removal of
8:14
the external female genitalia
8:16
for non medical reasons.
8:19
It. Has no health benefits
8:21
and can cause bleeding,
8:23
urinary tract issues. Serious
8:25
infections and complications with
8:28
sober. According to a
8:30
February Two Thousand Twenty Four
8:32
report by the World Health
8:34
Organization, there are currently two
8:36
hundred million living individuals who
8:39
have undergone female genital mutilation
8:41
across thirty countries in Africa,
8:43
the Middle East, and Asia
8:45
where it is most commonly
8:48
practice. Female. Genital mutilation,
8:50
often abbreviated as Fgm is
8:52
mostly done to girls between
8:55
infancy and age fifteen. It's.
8:57
Classified as a human rights
9:00
violation. So. I mean
9:02
when you find out. You. Could
9:04
understand. Why? There would be a
9:06
lot of people. Who would oppose?
9:08
Oh, for sure. But. If
9:11
you're in. A country,
9:13
let's say where it's practice.
9:15
Could. That opposition. Lead.
9:18
To troubles free. Yeah.
9:20
Save Them. If. It's
9:22
consider that the outsider er
9:25
an outlier gap or something
9:27
along those lines. M.
9:30
Like I said, we don't have all the
9:32
details, but it does sound. As
9:34
if this opposition. To
9:37
ask Gm. Was. Kind of
9:39
the heart. Of. The.
9:41
Troubles that they have. You.
9:44
Could it have. Had something to
9:46
do with her husband's death. Could.
9:48
Have. Had. Something to do
9:50
with their homes being destroyed. And
9:53
I would say. Yes, To both
9:55
we just don't know. Fgm
9:57
is sometimes done by people who
9:59
are. Religious, but the World
10:02
Health Organization report said no
10:04
religious scripts call for the
10:06
practice. Gene. Curia was
10:08
outspoken against this issue because
10:11
she was forced to undergo
10:13
Fgm because of an extremist
10:15
religious sects. according to Star
10:18
News online, She. Fled the
10:20
country because she didn't want her daughter's
10:22
to go through the same thing. The
10:24
Catholic Church helped Jane and her
10:27
children travel to South Africa. They.
10:29
Arrived in Boston in March two
10:32
thousand one. And. Moved to Georgia.
10:34
In. February Two Thousand Two.
10:37
Clumsy. Can see. probably felt safe. You.
10:40
Know sitting at worry about. Somebody.
10:42
Coming by wanting to perform. The.
10:45
Surgery on her daughters. Are
10:47
forcing it to be perform road
10:49
or anything along those lines? Yeah.
10:51
I wasn't. All. That familiar.
10:54
With. This practice. And
10:56
I was kind of stance by some
10:58
of the numbers and. How
11:00
widespread it is. And
11:02
the wonder pore we reference was. From.
11:05
Earlier this year. So. Obviously
11:07
is still pretty prevalent.
11:10
Today. Later. That year
11:12
they settled in Powder Springs,
11:14
a suburb of Atlanta be
11:16
join the Harvesters Ministries International
11:19
Church in Marietta in Jane
11:21
Or and a nursing degree.
11:23
So. Sounds like you know they arrived
11:26
in the Us. They. Were doing
11:28
pretty well. Yes, He got a
11:30
nursing degree and I feel about nurses.
11:32
Oh love nurses. My mom's a nurse,
11:34
my daughter studying to be a nurse.
11:36
He. Was said. the Jane was willing
11:38
to do anything it took to provide
11:41
for her killed. At the
11:43
time of Er Das, she worked in
11:45
a hospital and a nursing home. At
11:47
one point two or three jobs, But.
11:50
She had to quit one of them. Due.
11:52
To exhaustion. But. Is not
11:54
surprising to me and mean here's a mom
11:56
it said so do anything for her kids.
11:59
In for her. Two jobs, Three jobs. He's trying
12:01
to do any and everything she can make ends
12:03
meet. And obviously you have
12:05
to. You. Know applaud.
12:08
That. type of thinking he was
12:10
so often on T Cat. Were.
12:13
Talking about killers who
12:15
often have bad childhoods.
12:17
Fathers. Who beat them?
12:20
Mothers who neglect them. Were.
12:22
Obviously not talking about that
12:25
here. Jane. Was committed.
12:27
To being a good mother.
12:30
Doing. The best that she could
12:32
to provide for her children. In.
12:34
Two thousand saw Jane and the
12:36
kids moved into a larger home
12:38
in a nice quiet neighborhood. James.
12:41
Neighbor: When Mason told The Atlanta
12:43
Constitution that Jane told her she
12:45
used to live in an apartment.
12:48
And loved having a house for herself and the
12:50
kids. And there's nothing. Wrong.
12:53
At all with living in an apartment
12:55
lot of people do. Sir. They
12:57
do. But. For me. And.
12:59
I'm just talking about myself. Something.
13:02
So nice about. A
13:04
house. Having. Your own space,
13:07
not being connected to any
13:09
one else. Having. Your own
13:11
yard. It's. Nice. But.
13:14
You know with it comes the fact that
13:16
you have to do a lot maintenance as
13:18
the you know what the people don't want
13:20
that assist the weather argument. On the
13:22
other side of be like look. We. Have a
13:24
nice yard but somewhere else maintains it.
13:26
The you know we don't have to
13:28
do the exterior maintenance and the. And
13:30
we have. This is a beautiful living
13:33
space and sometimes there are things inside
13:35
the house. they get six by somebody
13:37
else. Some apartments I'm sure. So.
13:40
Yeah, there's there's. Pros: And
13:42
cons for bucks. He had been:
13:44
was ill your personal preference? Yes
13:46
Absolutely. James. Immigration Attorney
13:48
Charles Koch told The
13:50
Atlanta Constitution. Jane. Was
13:53
an extraordinary woman. Who. Had
13:55
succeeded despite the odds against
13:57
her. She. Had really be gone
13:59
to. The American Dream. Jane's.
14:02
Nice Diana mean I expressed similar
14:04
thoughts the i'll let eleven a
14:06
lot saying Jane was really really
14:08
hard work. She. Was so
14:10
dedicated to her family and even after
14:13
her husband does. She. Was
14:15
so dedicated to raising her
14:17
children. So. I think
14:19
for sure we're getting a really
14:21
good picture here. Of
14:24
Check. Your hard working
14:26
mom! Very. Dedicated to
14:28
her shelter. And a sounds
14:30
like she came from a difficult. Past.
14:33
She. Fled to the U S. And.
14:35
I'm sure she was do everything she can.
14:38
To. Keep her kids from have to go back
14:40
to that. Wife. Diana.
14:42
Added that she couldn't think
14:44
of any reason someone would
14:46
want to her. James the
14:48
whole family was fun loving
14:50
and polite. Others, Jane, especially
14:52
was outgoing and loved hosting.
14:55
People. And we hear this refrain
14:57
a lot. You know when when
14:59
somebody is murdered? A. Lot of
15:01
times people come out say. Well.
15:03
They have no enemies. They were nice to
15:06
everyone. I can't think of a
15:08
single person. Who. Would want her.
15:10
First. It's. Love Hosting
15:12
New Loss Hosting. Not me,
15:14
me neither. As often you knew
15:16
some nothing. I am not a
15:18
host. Not. A host. James.
15:21
Neighbor Ramen Reisman told The
15:23
Atlanta Constitution that her husband.
15:26
Health. Jane hang curtains and or
15:28
new home. She wanted curtains covering
15:30
all the windows. Even. The
15:33
large ones above her front door
15:35
so that no one could see
15:37
through without getting on a laugh.
15:40
She. Thought this was a little unusual. Especially.
15:43
After James till. Then I
15:45
could see where you'd have that saw do. Now.
15:48
I like for. I don't
15:50
want people being able to see.
15:53
In South. Yemen. Your house
15:55
is a little strange. I will say
15:57
that the fact that most homes have.
16:00
So many windows on a. Website.
16:02
That you have lakes for windows,
16:05
Around the whole house, it's it, as I
16:07
don't want any on the front. Yes, is
16:09
brick the whole thing. It was really strange
16:11
by guess. I'm used to it now, yes,
16:13
but. You. Can see. Why?
16:16
This would be a little
16:18
strange to someone, but how
16:20
much more strange would it
16:22
be after that person? Was.
16:24
Murder Jeff is undertaken home
16:26
I guess is that why
16:28
she was concern? and yeah,
16:30
because she was fearful of
16:32
something or someone. By. Two
16:34
thousand and Seven James oldest
16:37
daughter Isabella was in college.
16:39
She was living in Chattanooga,
16:41
Tennessee. And. Attending pharmacy
16:43
school, Annabel was in
16:45
high school in Germany, was in
16:47
elementary school. At the time of Er.
16:49
Det. Jane. Was dealing with
16:52
some issues with their families
16:54
immigration status. She had applied
16:56
for asylum. But. Her request was
16:58
denied. And she was in the
17:01
process of appeal. Hearing. For
17:03
her daughter's was scheduled for August
17:05
twenty ninth. And I'm sure they had
17:07
a be. Nerve. Wracking? yeah, I'm sure
17:09
weight on her mean you mentioned it.
17:12
I got the sense that. If.
17:15
She was pretty happy. In
17:17
her. New. Place right?
17:20
Here. In the Us. I. Can
17:22
imagine that she wanted to go back.
17:24
And. Say some of the issues that
17:27
she had dealt with before. Yeah,
17:29
Some. Sure that was weighing on her, it
17:31
was on her mind. According. To
17:34
her attorney, Charles cocked the
17:36
judge believe she gave inconsistent
17:38
testimony. And that's she
17:40
was not subjectively afraid to
17:42
return to Kenya, which is
17:44
a requirement to prove that
17:46
an individual needs a sign.
17:49
Subjectively. Yeah. I
17:51
was. Trying. To can as. Dissect.
17:55
Know. Maybe it's in the word
17:57
see use during the testimony.
18:00
Because. I can't imagine that she wasn't
18:02
afraid to return. Given. All
18:04
of the things that we talked about.
18:07
In. Her fear. That. Her
18:09
daughter's would be subjected to.
18:12
The. Same thing that she was. That.
18:14
Would be fearful. Than. You would
18:16
think. That. Are tourney. Probably
18:19
that coach or. On. What
18:21
to say? What's needed for asylum? He
18:23
would think so. In July
18:26
two thousand and seven some members
18:28
of Jane's family revisiting her from
18:30
kinda. On. July twenty ninth.
18:33
Jane. Sister in law Pauline then.
18:36
Dropped. off her ten year old son peter.
18:38
Nicknamed. Pk to play with
18:41
Jeremy and sleep over Jane's house.
18:44
And I remember when my kids were younger.
18:46
You. The have two cows. And. I
18:48
was a big deal. Either.
18:51
Yo. Because. I'm staying
18:53
here. Them. Staying over the
18:55

20:29
The two boys spend all day playing
20:31
outside and went to bed early that
20:33
evening because they were exhausted. That
20:35
day Jane cooked in, visited with her
20:37
sister in law. On. July
20:40
twenty ninth Jane Curtain talk to
20:42
her sister in law, loosey goosey
20:44
about her new job. But.
20:46
No one heard from Jane on
20:49
Monday July. Third, And while
20:51
this was concerning. No. One
20:53
went to the how sad it. On July
20:55
thirty first. A cousin named Oh
20:57
and then went to Jane's house to
21:00
check on every once he looked through
21:02
the windows on either side of James
21:04
front door. But. Couldn't see or
21:06
hear anything. He. Noticed that Jane
21:08
and Isabel those cars run the driveway,
21:11
but he figure that someone else might
21:13
have picked them up to take them
21:15
out to dinner. So. He
21:17
laughed without investigating further. By.
21:20
August First Pauline. Jane.
21:23
Sister in law was panicking. Shen.
21:25
Heard from Jane. Or. Seen her
21:27
son. Into full day. And.
21:30
It wasn't like Jane. To
21:32
avoid communicating with her family so.
21:35
Pauline. Knew something was seriously wrong.
21:37
By. This point. And two days
21:40
isn't as a long time. Yeah, I'm
21:42
is day three, right? He. Said to
21:44
four days passed. Out on of I can
21:46
make it that long. Yeah. I had that thought
21:48
as well. But. Again, It's.
21:51
Family. So. Maybe you
21:53
don't worry as quickly, but. I.
21:55
Had that thought to. As a long
21:57
time to go without hearing from you. Child.
22:01
A room. How did you go last night?
22:03
He. Doing okay over there. You need anything.
22:06
But. You know, some people were more.
22:08
Relaxed. But. Obviously
22:11
she's not relaxed at this point. she's
22:13
panic. James. Other sister in
22:15
law, Lucy, had also been calling
22:17
her home and sell and received
22:19
no inch. Pauline Vocab
22:22
James Nice Diane around nine
22:24
thirty am. She. Asked Diana
22:26
to go with her to James House so
22:28
they could see what was going on. Diana
22:31
recall that Pauline was any
22:33
complete pan fry that she
22:35
was. They. Got their just before
22:37
ten am. They. Assume that by
22:39
this point in the morning someone
22:42
would be up making breakfast and
22:44
easy. You. Know, with most people,
22:46
that's a pretty good assumption. Here.
22:49
Few cups of coffee probably of importer
22:51
a d and we see or I
22:53
know you probably would have five cups
22:55
of coffee Porter eighty, maybe some eggs
22:57
and bacon. Gotten her. Something. As
22:59
can be some go. Pauline.
23:02
And Diana notice that Jane and
23:04
Isabella cars were stolen the driveway.
23:06
Diana. Told Pauline to check the
23:09
front door while she went around
23:11
back. But. Both women ended
23:13
up going towards the back of the
23:15
house. They. Walked up a set of
23:17
stairs to a porch on the second store.
23:20
Where. There was a sliding glass door. They.
23:22
Couldn't see anything through the back window.
23:25
The. Vertical blinds on the sliding glass
23:27
door was closed, but there were
23:29
deaths. The house was very dark,
23:32
Which. Made it difficult to see
23:34
anything. Diana. Tried the door
23:36
and realize that it was unlocked.
23:39
She. Stepped inside and saw that
23:41
all the curtains were drawn. And.
23:43
Cartoons were playing on the
23:45
Tv. There. Was just enough line.
23:48
For. Her to see a large pool of
23:50
blood and a body on the for. And.
23:53
Right there my adrenaline would suit up. Yeah.
23:55
Me either you would for anyone
23:58
the level loves saw seer. I
24:00
mean there's all kinds of different
24:02
words you could use. Seeing a
24:04
large pool of blood and a
24:06
bot to you're already worth. What
24:09
we talked about. These. People are
24:11
worried. They have been worried.
24:13
The word panic is been
24:15
used. And now. Your.
24:17
Worst fears. If that
24:20
has even enters your mind, Or
24:22
beings him for. Something. Really
24:24
bad his hat. Than.
24:27
A Toward Eleven a lot There
24:29
was blood like on the walls
24:31
and it was really really dark.
24:34
Diana. Immediately step back outside.
24:36
And. Told Pauline not to go in
24:39
the house. She. Dialed Nine One
24:41
One. Pauline. Pleaded with her
24:43
to tell her what she saw. Diana
24:45
told her I saw body. I.
24:48
Don't know who's it is. She.
24:50
Suspected it was her Aunt
24:52
Jane, but she wasn't sure.
24:55
In. Or nine one one call Diana
24:57
reported I saw body on the
24:59
floor. And. There's book. And.
25:01
Pauline. Me: I think
25:03
she was the one that was most. Panicked.
25:06
To. Begin with. I can
25:09
imagine her state of mind after
25:11
hearing that news from Diane. Yeah.
25:14
That you'd want to Russian. Find
25:16
your child but also. Afraid
25:18
what you'll find? Yeah, I
25:20
can imagine some conflicting emotions.
25:23
Or. Ideas.
25:25
Bouncing. Around. You. Know what?
25:27
Do I do? Too. I wait for
25:29
the police to get here and let
25:31
them go in first. Could my
25:34
child be alive and heard? Do they
25:36
need me? So like I might
25:38
wanna run in. But. Also, is
25:40
there a thought that. Maybe.
25:43
There's a really bad individual still
25:45
inside the home. Yeah, What?
25:47
Am I walking into. First. Responders
25:50
got there within minutes. Detective John
25:52
Dogs described the crime scene is
25:55
one of the most vicious assault
25:57
he'd ever seen. Jane.
26:00
Isabella, an animal. Had.
26:02
Been bludgeoned to death, Jane.
26:04
Was found in the kitchen. it
26:06
appeared. That. She tried to fight
26:08
her attacker. But. Was over power.
26:11
Isabella was on the landing at the
26:13
top of the stairs. It looked like
26:16
Annabel was attacked as she stepped out
26:18
of her. Said. Any
26:20
doesn't surprise me one bit. Did.
26:22
See here that. Jane. Tried
26:25
to fight her attacker me based off of
26:27
everything that we've said about her. She
26:29
would have done anything for
26:32
her children. Yes, I mean.
26:34
She. Was a fighter. In. She would have
26:36
fought to her last breath. Yeah, And
26:39
I think she probably did. Pk.
26:41
And Jeremy were store. Bought.
26:43
Severely injured. Jeremy.
26:46
Was found in a bad m. P.
26:48
K was found next to a living
26:50
room couch. The boys had been unconscious
26:52
for about twenty four hours. According.
26:55
To one investigator, detective John
26:57
Dawes theorize that they survived
27:00
the attack. Because. Their
27:02
heads were laying on pillows and
27:04
mattresses. Which. Soften the
27:06
blow somewhat. Interesting, You
27:09
know, On. That theory. But.
27:11
Thankfully that's you know they had the
27:13
pillows or the. The. Mattress that
27:16
soften. The. Blow the came down on.
27:18
The clearly do some damage. They were unconscious
27:20
for twenty four hours. Yeah, they
27:23
were both rushed to the Atlanta
27:25
Children's Hospital. And. Then they
27:27
were unconscious for a number of
27:29
days after that. There. Were no
27:31
signs of forced entry. Which. Further
27:33
added to the mystery. And
27:35
I keep going back and forth on.
27:38
Forced. Entry. I. Understand
27:40
what it means to
27:42
investigators. Obviously you know if you
27:44
go to a crime scene. As.
27:46
An investigator. And.
27:48
The doors kicked death right? Well.
27:51
That's obviously forced answer. Or the
27:53
back window is broken? Or the
27:56
sliding glass doors broken? That's.
27:58
Deathly going to tell you some. The. But.
28:01
The absence of any sign
28:03
of forced entry, That's.
28:05
When I'm not really sure about what is
28:07
it? Me: Because. We.
28:09
All have answer the door. For.
28:11
People. Sometimes. I even answers
28:14
the door for people I don't know. You.
28:16
Do whizzing it. Would it be
28:18
possible? For. Someone as soon as
28:20
you answered the door, Open The door.
28:23
To receive. Absolutely. And
28:25
therefore, they're really wouldn't
28:28
be. To. Have those telltale
28:30
signs of forced entry. He also make
28:32
the case at the door was unlocked
28:34
and they just came on in the
28:36
ad or fall one the kids in
28:38
there's a number of different scenarios that
28:40
you could make but I understand why
28:42
it always comes up and case. But
28:44
you also can serve to the point
28:46
that. Maybe. It was somebody
28:48
with the family. New work or
28:50
seen new. Yeah, a new yes
28:53
and no. Once they came in.
28:55
A test. And. I think a
28:57
lot of times the absence of forced
29:00
entry does. Tend to lead
29:02
investigators to thinking that or at
29:04
least you know the possibility of
29:06
than. But. Like I said, I
29:08
did he he can't always mean that
29:11
because a stranger could. Figure.
29:13
Out a way to get in. Without.
29:15
using. Force. Or leaving
29:17
saw. That. They forced their way
29:19
and. While. The police were
29:22
investigating the crime scene. Pauline.
29:24
Was outside scream. Are. They
29:26
all dead. Are they all that? According.
29:29
To one neighbor. Diana. Recall
29:31
that the family felt hopeless
29:33
and devastate. They weren't sure
29:35
what to do because. They. Weren't
29:38
citizen? They. Were also confused
29:40
and had no idea. Who. Would
29:42
want to harm the same. And
29:44
I think that's a a big point
29:46
to consider hear. You. There
29:48
visiting from Tin. Some.
29:50
Of these individual to be scary if
29:53
you're from here. Oh absolutely,
29:55
but not to be from the
29:57
country and not knowing how things
29:59
work? The hill be even more
30:01
so the I would adam level. To.
30:04
What would already be a
30:06
very scary situation? And
30:08
at this point they don't even know.
30:10
The. Status of every in saw. Obviously.
30:13
Because Pauline is screaming Or the all
30:15
dad? Are they old Dad? Pk.
30:18
Regained consciousness about a week
30:20
after the attack. But. He had
30:22
no memories of what happened or who
30:25
entered the home. Severe. Head
30:27
trauma. Not surprised. No. I I
30:29
think. He. Was very lucky.
30:32
That. Even server. And
30:34
the same goes with germs. and
30:36
he was unconscious for several more
30:38
weeks. He spent about two
30:40
months in the hospital. Recovering.
30:43
From his injuries. And. I think
30:45
that just tells you how severe. They.
30:47
Were. Two. Months in the hospitals
30:49
a long time. To. Some of
30:51
that, you know he was unconscious. But.
30:54
Obviously. He was lucky
30:56
to have escaped with his life. Investigators
30:59
determined that the murder
31:01
weapon. Was. A long,
31:03
skinny object. That was likely
31:06
forth at one end. The. Weapon
31:08
was not found at the house. Detective.
31:11
John Dawes theorize the Jane was
31:13
the target of the attack. And
31:16
so with the kids were just some. Something.
31:18
That had to be dealt with. Well if
31:20
you think about. Jane.
31:23
Been the target, which I could
31:25
understand why that theory would emerge.
31:28
It's. Her house? Yeah, She's.
31:30
Of the old is she probably knows
31:32
the most people. Dead. And
31:34
I think you have to go to. The.
31:37
Perpetrator. Not.
31:39
Wanting to leave behind witnesses.
31:42
As the only thing I can think of
31:44
this is Jane is that the target in
31:46
the only target. Yobs. Is thinking
31:48
of the. If the boys were asleep
31:50
but we don't know, they were actually sleep. They.
31:52
Could just been. Yeah, we have no idea. Yeah.
31:55
But. Door de Sac. Sixty days worth
31:57
of James phone records for evidence.
32:00
The identified a number. They belong
32:02
to a man named Patrick. For.
32:04
At least sixty days, if not
32:07
longer. Patrick in Jane talked every
32:09
single day. Sometimes.
32:11
Twelve The Sistine times a day.
32:14
That's a lot. Show. You
32:17
a like talking to somebody twelve or
32:19
fifteen days and a year. That.
32:21
Is very true. But.
32:23
Depending. On what this relationship?
32:25
What? If you're in
32:27
that sign of. New. Stage
32:29
new! Getting to know you.
32:32
On. The Verge of Love
32:35
states. I'll. Call it. I
32:37
don't know if it's abnormal. To. Talk a
32:39
Lot. I mean my wife and I used is
32:41
hop on the phone a. Before.
32:44
She was my wife. Now. It's all non
32:46
verbal. Now
32:48
we don't talk at all on the skin. Western,
32:51
you're still discovering each other
32:53
and. Trying to figure out who
32:55
people are and you know you want to get
32:57
to know them you want to talk to the
32:59
the some people to talk. Some
33:02
people do. I. Am not one of those people.
33:04
According. To James nephew Mark
33:07
Mana Patrick was married. So.
33:09
The family didn't think too much of
33:11
his relationship with Jack. He. Noticed
33:13
that Patrick was always hanging
33:16
around. Sources: Didn't say
33:18
if the family knew about their many
33:20
phone calls before the murder. So.
33:22
Once you find out that
33:24
information, Why? Obviously. That.
33:27
Add some context. it does.
33:29
Because. These are not to single
33:31
people. Getting. To know each
33:33
other, One. Of the participants
33:35
is Mary. Patrick in jane
33:38
last spoke around ten pm. On.
33:40
The day of the murder. And investigators thought
33:43
it was on. That. He
33:45
stopped contacting her. After
33:47
that. When. The police spoke
33:49
to Patrick. He couldn't explain. Why?
33:52
He suddenly stopped calling j.
33:55
And how could they not find that
33:57
off? The mean: you're going back through
33:59
records. Talking ten fifteen
34:01
times a day. Every day.
34:04
For. At least. Sixty.
34:06
Days probably longer. And
34:09
then all the sudden the phone call start.
34:11
To. Flee bizarre. As. Gonna have to
34:13
Would put some why it on there there's
34:16
no doubt. And even more
34:18
if you can explain.
34:20
Why? That is. Known. For the
34:22
phone calls went both ways. That
34:24
also think it might put a low
34:26
light on Patrick's wife to, right? maybe
34:29
she found out about this. Well.
34:31
Sure, it entered the minds of
34:33
investigate once they found all this.
34:35
So. You. Could we have
34:37
a situation here? Where.
34:40
A Why sound out that her
34:42
husband was talking to another woman?
34:45
Twelve. Fifteen times a day.
34:48
Maybe. She discovered that there was even
34:50
more going on tour. And
34:52
in a jealous rage. Committed.
34:55
This horrible. Attack in.
34:58
Multiple. Murders effort a similar
35:00
scenarios before. Recording. To
35:02
Detective Dogs Patrick was willing
35:04
to speak officers and answer
35:06
their questions. By. When he
35:09
was asked serious questions related to the
35:11
case, he had nothing to say. However,
35:14
Dawes. Said that Patrick was com.
35:17
And. Showed knowing Xiety while speaking
35:19
to the. Okay, What?
35:22
Do you make of that? So.
35:24
It's one thing to say. You
35:26
know I'll answer your question. In.
35:30
You. Ask me a tough question. And
35:32
then I've got nothing to say was
35:35
easy to sit and answer such services.
35:37
In A and then I did. You have to.
35:40
Can figure out what to make of
35:43
this guy. Being. Calm showing
35:45
knowing Xy the. Your.
35:47
You can look at it as. He
35:50
was com because. He
35:52
didn't have anything to worry about. Or.
35:55
Some. People are just. Able to
35:57
do that. And. That's something we've
35:59
learned. The. With. Killers before.
36:01
Yeah, it just seems. Strange
36:04
that you know this woman. That.
36:07
He. Actually cared a lot about because
36:09
he was talking to her so many
36:11
times every day. And now see
36:13
his dad. And. Her.
36:15
Two daughters are dead. At. This
36:18
would think that he be more shook up
36:20
there would be hard to be. Com
36:22
just on that alone. Or.
36:24
Even if you didn't have anything to do
36:26
with. The fact that this
36:29
horrible thing has happened. Yeah.
36:31
You wouldn't think most people would
36:33
be described as com. Patrick
36:36
presented a theory that led
36:38
the police to look into
36:40
the. Mungiki. Get.
36:42
Also known as the Kenyan Mossy.
36:45
According. To Patrick. Jane. Revealed
36:47
that the gang murdered her
36:49
husband. Charity. Give your
36:52
investigators. And you learn.
36:54
From. Family. What? Jane had been
36:57
through. The. Fact that. She
36:59
fled Sin. Yeah, You'd.
37:01
Have to take this story
37:04
somewhat seriously. Number. One her
37:06
husband did die. Yeah, And. She
37:08
did fear for her safety.
37:11
And. The safety of her girls, But.
37:13
I don't have the police believed him. Why
37:15
definitely think they. Began.
37:18
To doubt him. When. They obtain
37:20
the. Death. Certificate.
37:22
And learn that James husband died
37:25
of pneumonia. They. Began to
37:27
believe that Patrick was trying to
37:29
throw off their investigation by kinda
37:32
bringing up this get. Know.
37:34
I will throw little. Rents. Into
37:36
this. By saying. Maybe.
37:38
The Kenyan mob. Had. Ties
37:41
to. The corner. And
37:43
said a. Put. Down he died from.
37:46
Some illness him we don't up.
37:48
You. Know. Ten Discount Know.
37:51
But. If he really did die of
37:53
pneumonia. That probably takes
37:55
the Kenyan mafia out of.
37:58
Yeah. So either he made it up. Or.
38:01
Was information that Jane told him and he
38:03
was just passing on what. Jane.
38:05
And told him and that could have been as well. The.
38:07
Please Also learned that Patrick
38:09
Ball five thousand dollars from
38:11
Jane. While. Searching the house
38:14
they found handwritten notes on the dining
38:16
room table. The. Notes were numbers
38:18
that added up to five thousand
38:21
dollar. And Patrick admitted that
38:23
he owed Jane five thousand dollars,
38:25
but was insistent that she wasn't
38:27
pressuring him to pay her back
38:29
at the time of her death.
38:31
Studying. Patrick spent a couple of
38:33
things going against him a those. Number
38:36
One is married. He's. Obviously.
38:39
You. Having. This.
38:41
Very large number of phone calls
38:44
on a daily basis with another
38:46
woman we don't know exactly. What?
38:48
Was going on at this point. But.
38:51
There could have been a mode of their. Along
38:53
that route and then you have
38:55
this five thousand dollars. He
38:57
resists something he couldn't pay back.
39:00
We've. Seen people kill. Others
39:02
for a lot less than five thousand
39:05
dollars. Her hair. And maybe
39:07
there's a connection between the two. Your.
39:09
Pay me the money. Or. I'm
39:11
telling your wife's you could go, You
39:14
know something along that route as well.
39:16
So I'll stop you from telling my
39:18
wife. A Also
39:20
we mentioned it police thought he
39:22
acted as somewhat strange deaths. According
39:26
to James sister in law, Lucy,
39:29
the family lost contact with Patrick
39:31
after the Barry. Mean. I really.
39:33
Surprised. They're the family. Didn't really seem
39:36
like they cared about him anyway. He
39:38
probably felt that and probably just thought.
39:40
Was. Best when he had no
39:42
connection year to them really anyway,
39:45
his connection was with Jane, so
39:47
know that's that's not surprising to.
39:50
Detective. John Dawes noted
39:52
that Jane had no
39:54
significant deposits. Or. Dead. In
39:57
her account. About. A year
39:59
after the murder. Detectives.
40:01
Received or the jane was expecting a
40:03
large sum of money. But.
40:05
There was no evidence to support this.
40:08
However, Dawes noted that they
40:10
could not access Jane's kin.
40:13
Bank. Account. And I was
40:15
kinda surprised by that that she
40:17
still even have. A
40:20
Kenyan. Banks. Is how. You
40:22
would say. If you're moving
40:24
to the Us. In your
40:26
starting. A new. They're.
40:29
Doing. Close everything else you want to
40:31
take everything with. Yeah, I would
40:34
think so too, but maybe. Because. She
40:36
had family there she needed to we some
40:38
money into the account. or maybe she couldn't
40:40
close the account. Maybe. The see how to
40:42
get out of there so quick? As. He
40:44
was not able to fully close the
40:46
account now. or maybe she died. You
40:49
know, if. The. Worst happened and
40:51
they had to go back. She.
40:53
Would leave it there and yeah, don't know. While.
40:56
Lucy and the family were
40:58
making funeral arrangements. A woman
41:00
named Elizabeth who went to
41:02
church with Jane was trying
41:04
to obtain guardianship of germs.
41:07
It's possible that this woman
41:09
was Elizabeth. Munda. The.
41:12
Atlanta Constitution identified her
41:14
as James best friend.
41:16
An article from Two Thousand Eight.
41:18
However, this is unconfirmed. It
41:21
was around this time several weeks
41:23
after the attack. the jeremy finally
41:25
opened isn't. As an adult,
41:28
Jeremy. Recalled that he went to
41:30
sleep. And. His next memory
41:32
was waking up in the hospital.
41:35
Unable to speak or. Move
41:37
So. That does clear up one
41:39
thing. For. Us your question
41:42
you had. Had. The even
41:44
fallen asleep and a sounds like at
41:46
least Jeremy had. Been.
41:48
I see you're really. Your highlights
41:51
the extent of his memory
41:53
Will he remembered Gnostic? Which.
41:55
You know, I mean, he kind
41:57
of wish he remembered who did this.
42:00
The you're also glad he doesn't have a memory
42:02
of this. Horrific. Event:
42:04
Yes, Yep! I get that.
42:07
Lucy and other family members flew
42:09
to Kenya for the burials. Jeremy.
42:12
Remained in the hospital. An
42:14
Elizabeth was a frequent visitor.
42:17
When. Lucien Jeremy, his paternal grandmother returned.
42:19
As you ask, one of the
42:21
first thing they wanted to do
42:23
was go see Germany. But. Their
42:25
name had been removed from
42:27
the approved visitors list without
42:29
their knowledge or consent. And.
42:31
That seem seat. right? On the
42:34
part of some. Who. Wouldn't
42:36
want. The paternal. Grandmother.
42:39
To. See germ. And why wouldn't
42:41
you want that at this point? He needs
42:44
as much family as again around them. Because.
42:46
He doesn't have much to laugh though. Elizabeth
42:49
Head also established herself as
42:51
Jeremy legal guardian. While.
42:53
They were gone. She became
42:56
close with Jeremy maternal grandmother
42:58
who allowed this to happen.
43:00
Elizabeth eventually removed the rest of
43:02
the same. From. Jeremy record
43:05
so they could not see him
43:07
without her permission. It's. Wonder
43:09
why that is? You know, is it
43:11
a control thing? Or. You just didn't
43:13
want. The. Rest of the family
43:15
around him because we try to
43:18
protect them were was are other
43:20
reasons I'm not seeing protection. Because
43:22
I don't know why there would be
43:24
a need. To protect him
43:27
from his damn. I'm.
43:29
Getting a more sinister
43:31
vibe. You. Know it starts
43:34
with okay, you don't want
43:36
to Paternal grandmother. To. See
43:38
him. But. Then she gets
43:40
very close with the maternal. Grandmother.
43:44
Who. Allows her. To. Be
43:46
his legal guard. And then
43:48
after that. Sounds like
43:50
she just takes everybody else the
43:52
list so nobody can. See.
43:56
But. What was reported was that she'd
43:58
been inserting herself into. The case.
44:00
From. The be in. For. Example:
44:03
Genes Nice Diana toward Investigation
44:05
Discovery that on the day
44:07
she was supposed to identify
44:09
the bond. Elizabeth.
44:11
Told her she would handle. She.
44:13
Presented herself as a spokesperson for
44:16
the family which confuse them. Diana.
44:18
Said that culturally it was bizarre.
44:21
For. Elizabeth to step into that role.
44:24
She was in early twenties. At
44:26
the time. And felt that
44:28
she couldn't question. The. Older
44:30
one. So. You know regarding
44:32
all of this is gonna have
44:35
to ask yourself as someone who's
44:37
trying to help out. Or.
44:40
Is. It someone who is. Trying.
44:42
To establish themselves. As
44:45
can have an important call.
44:48
In in the process or
44:50
you know, within the family.
44:53
With. The ultimate goal of gaining
44:55
legal guardianship of Germ. Why
44:57
is that what? What's. The
45:00
benefits for her. Because. I don't
45:02
really see the benefits for him. So.
45:04
See doing this because somehow it's gonna
45:06
benefit her. She just wants control. Know
45:09
my first saw it was that. He.
45:11
Or she wanted. To. Be
45:13
Germany's legal guardian. But. You're
45:15
kind of leading me down a
45:17
path that you may be. There.
45:20
Was. Other motives as well.
45:22
You're. When you think about it, Jeremy.
45:25
The only survivor of that same
45:27
right? So. If there was
45:29
money, Which. We just talked about
45:31
the fact that. There. Was some talk
45:33
that she was about Brady Com and
45:35
a some money will then who would
45:38
that go to? It would
45:40
go to Germany's legal guardian some since
45:42
I've a financial benefits. According
45:44
to James nephew Mark to Mata,
45:46
things move fast. After Jeremy was
45:49
discharged from the hospital, he moved
45:51
in with Elizabeth and his maternal
45:54
grin. So. Sounds like. Those.
45:57
Two. Were. Okay with each
45:59
other. Or. Elizabeth was okay
46:01
with her. She. Wasn't okay with
46:03
everyone else in the same. Jeremy.
46:05
Paternal side of the families claim
46:08
that Elizabeth isolated Jeremy in only
46:10
allow them to visit him once
46:12
or twice a year. Elizabeth
46:15
soon began selling James
46:17
personal belongings are car
46:19
and eventually her house.
46:21
She. Said she was doing this to
46:23
set aside money in trust for Jeremy,
46:26
but the family believes she kept the
46:28
money for herself. And. Me, That's. Really
46:30
easy to prove you're right, She. Wanted
46:32
to seek it out the trust papers. says.
46:35
Counts say oh here's the paper will
46:37
bow on years, the balance it's in
46:39
else he concedes as dress and here's
46:41
the attorney managing it. But you can
46:43
see where the family is going with
46:45
this sir. And it's down
46:47
the road of. You, This
46:50
was all done. To. Get her
46:52
hands on. One. In
46:54
his interview for the show still
46:57
a mystery, Germy said elizabeth restricting
46:59
control. He. Could hardly do
47:01
anything or see anyone without her
47:03
permission. To. Forbade him to contact
47:06
his father's side of the family. She.
47:08
Brush them off whenever he asked about
47:10
the trust, saying things like i'll tell
47:13
you, wait. Jeremy. Claim that
47:15
he has never had access to
47:17
this month. And. There
47:19
he go. Mean. Why would she want to
47:21
keep him away from. His father's.
47:24
Side. Of the family. From. Everything
47:26
that we know. His. Mom.
47:29
Loved. His. Dad. There.
47:31
Was no issue. There seemed like she
47:34
got along with. Both. Sides of the
47:36
family. Why? Think if you go
47:38
down the conspiracy theory road. It.
47:40
Would be. That. She wants
47:42
to keep him away from almost
47:45
everyone. Because. There's.
47:47
Gonna be question. You. Know how you
47:49
doing, Is. She buying you everything
47:51
you need. Yeah, And what is,
47:53
she's not. She. Doesn't want
47:55
those questions to be answered his
47:57
she's not doing what she said.
48:00
Host to be don't re. providing.
48:02
Him with the things he needs taken care
48:04
of Him. Loose said
48:06
that they weren't. Necessarily
48:08
of sad about the financial situation,
48:11
they were upset that Elizabeth took
48:13
Jeremy away from the. Lucy.
48:15
Believes that Elizabeth know something about
48:18
what happened to Jane and her
48:20
daughter, and I think that notion
48:22
really leads you down the conspiracy
48:25
theory. Yeah. Because.
48:27
That would be the start up. To.
48:29
Get the money. You. Have
48:31
to have. Legal. Guardianship.
48:34
But. To get legal guardianship.
48:36
You. Have to get dressed as a family.
48:39
Out of the pits year began to be out of the way.
48:42
And. How do you do that? And does
48:44
it help explain? Why?
48:46
Jeremy was left a lot. Or.
48:48
Allowed to live. You. Can
48:50
make the case that. Person.
48:53
Hit him hard enough to try to do some.
48:56
Damage but not to kill. Basic.
48:58
Doing and capacity them. And.
49:00
That they would have to have full control
49:02
the estate. And. Never be question about it.
49:05
Yeah, I guess my one
49:07
struggle with that. His
49:09
his injuries were so severe.
49:12
I. Don't know. That
49:14
someone could do that in
49:16
ensure that. He.
49:19
Was. Going to live right? For. The
49:21
anything okay could have been. Something.
49:23
Very terrible happened. And.
49:25
Then somebody decided to try to profit off
49:28
of. That. Trash? Yes, yeah
49:30
there. There's a number of different.
49:32
Avenues. I think to go here.
49:35
And that's all assuming that. Elizabeth
49:37
was. Really? Trying to
49:40
do something. That. She shouldn't have
49:42
been. do. We. Don't know you to make case
49:44
it. She. Did it to. Look. Out
49:46
for his best interests. Seized. The
49:48
money's Razem. Maybe. There wasn't as
49:50
much money. They're what it thinks there was.
49:53
That. Because of she doesn't sell for counting fort.
49:55
Nobody's ever going on. know. But. I
49:57
think the one thing that goes against that
49:59
is. Your being you know, in his
50:02
twenties now. He's. Been a dollar
50:04
for a walk, right? So.
50:06
At. The very least. You.
50:08
Would think. He. Would be owed
50:11
and the king. Of the trucks.
50:13
yeah, I'd show me. Where. The money
50:15
went. Much. Upset.
50:17
Used it on me. In. To
50:19
raise me but. Not. Even
50:22
shown me that. As. Far
50:24
as Elizabeth potential connection to James
50:26
friend Patrick, the only thing linking
50:28
to was the fact that they
50:30
attended the same church. They.
50:33
Were never formally named as suspects.
50:35
No. Murder weapon or usable Dna
50:37
was left behind the crime scene,
50:39
but one piece above it still
50:42
gives investigators hopes that the keys
50:44
to be salt. In. The
50:46
days after the murders. Someone.
50:48
Spotted bloody hand towels and a
50:50
ditch about two miles from James.
50:52
How's. The. Towels were sent to
50:55
the state crime labs in a full
50:57
Dna profile was obtained. Civil.
50:59
Liberties protections prevent investigators
51:01
from running the profile
51:03
through a criminal database.
51:06
Now I've never heard of that either.
51:08
On that strange. But. Investigators were
51:10
able to work around this
51:12
by entering the Dna into
51:15
a genealogy database. Which. Is
51:17
another way to find a match. Still,
51:19
A mystery reported that results were
51:21
expected by the end of Two
51:23
Thousand Twenty Two. But. There
51:25
doesn't seem to be any news articles
51:28
online about the test results. And.
51:30
That always leads me to believe. That.
51:33
Nothing significant has come up
51:35
yet. Because. If there
51:37
had been somebody would write about rate. We.
51:40
Would have heard about. Jeremy. And
51:42
his cousins and kids have tried to
51:44
live normal lives after they survived the
51:46
attack. In. Two thousand eighteen
51:48
Germy was living in kids
51:50
with his grandmother. James.
51:53
Nice! Diana told eleven a lot that
51:55
Germy was studying to become a doctor.
51:58
He. Was seventeen years old. The
52:00
data. In. February Two Thousand
52:02
Eighteen Fox Five Atlanta reported that
52:04
he had surgery to remove a
52:07
brain to. It. Was believed to
52:09
be. A benign tumor. The.
52:11
Kenyan community in Atlanta made efforts
52:14
to raise money to pay his
52:16
hospital bill. When. Converted to
52:18
U S Dollars. You'd. Almost
52:20
thirty eight thousand doll. Jeremy.
52:23
Was supposed to travel back to Atlanta
52:25
for further treat. So. Again, you
52:27
know if there's this trust? Why?
52:30
Does he need people to help? Raise.
52:32
Money, You. Enlist. Like
52:34
you said, there wasn't that much
52:36
money in the trust and it was
52:38
all spends. Know it's expensive
52:41
to raise it is. But.
52:43
Yet these are things we just don't
52:45
know. But because the way it was
52:48
handled, it makes. You. Not really
52:50
sure why. is it makes
52:52
things seem suspicious? Yeah, Because
52:55
of the way that it all
52:57
went deaf ear sega say was
52:59
nobody's business that's why i admire
53:02
and again that but then a
53:04
day he saying. He. Hasn't
53:06
seen accountability for the. When. He
53:08
hasn't seen any of them on any. Jeremy.
53:10
Social media profile says he lives
53:13
in Kenya but works in Georgia.
53:15
So. It's a little unclear exactly
53:17
where he is at the moment,
53:19
but he's likely back in the
53:22
Us in two thousand eighty. it
53:24
was reported that's Germany's cousin Pj
53:26
was studying at the University of
53:28
Nairobi. Over. The years. Pk.
53:31
Has had a few memories of the
53:33
attack. He. Recalled someone coming
53:36
into the house. But.
53:38
He didn't know who they were. In
53:40
two thousand and seventeen Pk
53:42
was eating. You. God.
53:45
Which. Is a dish made of corn
53:47
meal and spinach. Apparently he was eating
53:49
the the very same thing. On.
53:51
The day of the attacks. In
53:53
this triggered a memory. And. Pk told
53:55
his mother did The man in
53:57
the house was wearing an African.
54:00
Heard I've. Heard of people.
54:03
You. Know having a memory triggered by
54:05
something like death? Yeah, I have
54:07
to. It's interesting. You know
54:09
he's seeing a man when an African
54:11
shirt. What? Does that mean them? And
54:14
owner. Doesn't. Lend credence
54:16
to the Kenyan mafia
54:18
story. Is is someone
54:20
who knew about the Kenyan
54:22
mafia and therefore dawned. And
54:25
Al says. Or for. Someone given
54:27
a gift of a shirt. And.
54:29
Decided to wear areas don't know when he
54:31
came over to visit. I. Think
54:34
what is interesting is that he
54:36
does say it's a me. Now
54:38
what does that mean? Does. That mean that
54:40
there was. No. One else involved
54:42
than I would say. No. The.
54:44
Curia family case is currently being
54:47
investigated by the Cobb County Cold
54:49
Case Unit. It's been over sixteen
54:51
years since Jane and her daughters
54:54
were murdered. Jane. Was a
54:56
wonderful month. And. A hard working nurse.
54:59
And. Her daughters had their
55:01
futures taking away from them by
55:03
an unknown kill. And. Jeremy.
55:06
Had so much taken away from hill. His.
55:08
Mother his sister's. All.
55:11
Those memories. That.
55:13
They would have shared to get. Your.
55:15
Jane. Fled. Kenya.
55:18
To. Protect her daughter from haven't this?
55:20
Terrible medical procedure. On.
55:23
Wanna Procedures. And it's
55:25
is heartbreaking because. He or she is.
55:27
She's making a. Good. Life for
55:29
her. And her kids.
55:32
Working. Hard. And whoever
55:34
this individual was came in and
55:36
just toward all part. That's.
55:38
A sad case. Is no doubt
55:40
about that. If you have any
55:42
information, you can contact the Cobb
55:44
County Da's Office cold Case unit.
55:47
Tip One. It's. Seven, Seven
55:49
Zero. Five. To wait. Three.
55:51
Zero three to or
55:53
email Cold Case a
55:55
Cobb County.for. So. As
55:57
we wrap this one up gibbs. In.
56:00
I'll. Be honest with you my mind.
56:03
Has. Gone on a bunch of
56:05
different direction. I mean, you
56:07
can't really? Say too much
56:09
about any one person because
56:12
there's just not enough evidence
56:14
to really say much about
56:16
them. You. When. We
56:18
talked about Elizabeth. I
56:21
will say some of the things she did
56:23
were very strange. But. You
56:25
can't say that. You. Know she had
56:27
anything to do with the murders. There's
56:30
no evidence to suggest that. I
56:32
do think that the whole interaction
56:35
with germy and and all that.
56:37
Is either. For. Trying to
56:40
do the right they are what she
56:42
saw was the right thing and protecting
56:44
him and protecting and taken care of
56:46
him. Or it was her trying to
56:48
get her hands on. Some. Money.
56:51
And. I have no idea which one it is.
56:53
Yeah, And then there's this whole thing was.
56:56
So bizarre. You. Know what
56:59
was. The state of
57:01
that relationship. We. Don't know.
57:03
It was five thousand dollars. enough to.
57:06
Cause. Her to be murdered. Or
57:08
was it a sense of jealousy? Or.
57:11
None. Of the above. Or. The thread
57:13
of. You know, his
57:15
wife been told again. There's so
57:17
many different avenues that you can
57:19
explore, but there's really just no
57:21
evidence to support any of them.
57:24
So. We're really
57:26
last. With. A.
57:28
Lot of questions in theory. Mood.
57:30
Have some hope right that maybe
57:32
something will be. Discovered.
57:34
With the Dna. Maybe. Yeah,
57:37
in that's assuming that. The.
57:39
Killers Dnase even on that's true.
57:42
We. Don't know who's dnase on. And
57:44
then you think, maybe. Pk.
57:46
Or. Jeremy. Will eventually
57:49
have more recall memories. Maybe.
57:52
They. Can go into better descriptions of what they
57:54
seem That might. The. I just,
57:56
I don't know. It's been so many
57:58
years. Sixteen years. I would
58:01
be very surprise. Yeah. Especially
58:03
with Jeremy if if he ever. Remembers.
58:06
Anything from that night. I. Mean
58:08
Pk did have that one memory so
58:10
it's possible. For. Something to to
58:12
trigger. But. That's it for our
58:14
episode on the Curia Family Murders. Get
58:16
some voice mails gives you an unchecked
58:18
as I assume. I guys
58:21
earn. Money. By.
58:23
The stereo and a solid let you know
58:26
that last. Episode you were
58:28
talking about.speaking. Had to
58:30
laugh because I was. Eating
58:33
or hops is so has a
58:35
high stakes are all good sized.
58:38
Love that is on. Came from
58:40
a few months. yes it's a
58:42
truncated for the better. I. Target
58:45
died He see. Rock. Picking.
58:48
She. Gets it? Does. You tried to
58:50
do that whole thing. With. An
58:52
Australian accent? We mean, try as.
58:55
I understand the good day. the
58:57
rest of it kind of morphed
58:59
into a very strange sea goddess.
59:02
She understands completely. His. Idea
59:04
what was angle is some spots in
59:06
terms of the accent. I
59:09
understood it to I'm talking about. You.
59:12
Trying to do the accent through the whole thing.
59:14
You. Have the one for it. You.
59:17
Know whether it's British or good day
59:19
or whatever it is that part comes
59:21
out. Yeah, it's when you try to
59:23
go further on. Into the conversation
59:25
I think we start to to I
59:27
was inspired to lose that a little
59:29
bit. Like us only barely. The guy
59:32
that does the wolverine. With. Remember his
59:34
name right now. A. Good look and chat. With.
59:36
His business. We're not going to help me. I
59:39
know you want me to tell you his name.
59:41
I can see him. You. Know but
59:43
then you should be able to think of all
59:45
his name at this moment I'm not telling her
59:47
no hidden for us and we're just gonna move
59:49
on. We are going to have to. Hi

was arrested and sent to prison for
1:00:40
her murder. He spent six
1:00:42
years in prison and then she
1:00:44
was released pieces season. Is a
1:00:46
new sound? be acquitted him or
1:00:49
something. Arm there was. Dna can
1:00:51
have selected as the side
1:00:53
to this day is still
1:00:55
not insisted on their accusations.
1:00:57
of political corruption and
1:00:59
com all kinds of

And. It's a group of people from
1:01:18
the area is still talking about this
1:01:20
case forty years later. There are tons
1:01:22
of rabbit holes through down in the
1:01:25
thorns. There's a lot of information about
1:01:27
this tastes it's been going on for
1:01:29
years on his is to use a
1:01:31
county New York's most notorious unsolved case.
1:01:34
I think he. Signed it very
1:01:36
interesting again by the Martha lottery
1:01:38
Processed have agreed. Aims to drones
1:01:40
I suggest. You. Have heard that
1:01:42
too, so I see. Least
1:01:45
one other person is not more
1:01:47
have suggested so I know it's
1:01:49
on the list. Which. Need to
1:01:51
move it up because sounds like people really
1:01:53
wants is to. Do. The. Into
1:01:55
for news to. Use. His
1:01:57
from upstate New York. You.
1:02:00
Will hear a by say Upstate
1:02:02
I'm from upstate Ohio. I'm. From
1:02:05
Upstate you don't hear that Tsunami York
1:02:07
cannot and will hurting by sight of
1:02:09
from Upstate somewhere. Know people say they're
1:02:12
from Upper Michigan? Yeah, I've heard that.
1:02:14
But. Ups Dates. And
1:02:17
there may be some other states, but New
1:02:19
York is obviously we hear that eerie by
1:02:21
say, the from downstate New York. Know.
1:02:24
But. Nobody really wants to say the from Ohio
1:02:26
anyway. So. It's
1:02:28
where your ass from. Ohio makes no
1:02:30
difference, is offensive is always found that
1:02:33
interesting if that's you know. I'm assuming

Yes, And maybe it's because we don't
1:02:39
have like and a New York City.

1:02:44
City. Like that we have a number of
1:02:47
the. Medium. Size? Yeah, good
1:02:49
size cities. Effort to. Random
