- 0:00Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace, a beautiful young woman found
- 0:09Speaker 1: buried in the Nevada Desert. I'm Nancy Grace. This is
- 0:13Speaker 1: Crime Stories. Thank you for being with us. The victim
- 0:16Speaker 1: in this case, Jamie Fieden, just thirty three years old,
- 0:21Speaker 1: was lured into the desert by a Pennsylvania man, John
- 0:27Speaker 1: Matthew Chapman. She Jamie Fedden, just four feet tall, was
- 0:34Speaker 1: found suffocated with duct tape and left to die in
- 0:39Speaker 1: the Nevada Desert. We learn the defendant is revealed to
- 0:44Speaker 1: be a married man who had been living a double
- 0:47Speaker 1: life after he lied about his job despite dating Fedden again.
- 0:53Speaker 1: Chapman reportedly married to his wife Marien Chapman almost a year,
- 0:58Speaker 1: but on Facebook first to himself as single, calling his
- 1:02Speaker 1: wife Maureen Cysts under a profile picture. Maureene says she
- 1:07Speaker 1: learned of Chapman's relationship with Fedden, found dead, after he
- 1:12Speaker 1: called her from the police department and confessed. Jamie's loved
- 1:17Speaker 1: ones believe Chapman pretended to be her on social media
- 1:22Speaker 1: after her disappearance by making suspicious Facebook posts. The facts
- 1:29Speaker 1: in this case so disheartening, offering apparently to take Jamie
- 1:36Speaker 1: out into the desert for a photoshoot.
- 1:40Speaker 2: What more do we know?
- 1:41Speaker 1: This tiny, diminutive woman goes missing. It doesn't take long
- 1:48Speaker 1: before police discover a man with a double life.
- 1:53Speaker 3: Listen, well, I got off the phone with Chapman's wife
- 1:55Speaker 3: a short time ago, and there are really three big takeaways. First,
- 1:58Speaker 3: Maureen Chapman says her husband been called her this morning
- 2:01Speaker 3: and confessed to murder. She says she's just learning her
- 2:04Speaker 3: husband was living a double life, pretending to visit family
- 2:07Speaker 3: and lying about his job. And Lastly, Chapman says her
- 2:10Speaker 3: husband drove her truck to Vegas and the Nevada Desert,
- 2:13Speaker 3: where he confessed to murdering. Feed In Chapman has only
- 2:17Speaker 3: been charged with kidnapping at this point.
- 2:20Speaker 4: He said he had murdered a woman.
- 2:23Speaker 3: A frantic six am phone call woke up Maureen Chapman.
- 2:26Speaker 3: Her husband was calling from the Bethel Park Police Department.
- 2:30Speaker 3: His words, I killed her because I had to. This
- 2:35Speaker 3: is Jamie Fieden, the woman, police say John Chapman admitted
- 2:38Speaker 3: to murdering. Police say he drove her to Nevada, tied
- 2:41Speaker 3: feet in up to a post with zip ties, covered
- 2:44Speaker 3: her mouth with duct tape, and let her suffocate. Nevada
- 2:47Speaker 3: officials are now working to identify a body they found
- 2:50Speaker 3: that matches feed In's description.
- 2:51Speaker 1: Our friends at eleven News wpx R that was Amy
- 2:55Speaker 1: Hugh Dack. I think a big giveaway. A tip to
- 2:59Speaker 1: the wife who says she had no idea what was
- 3:02Speaker 1: going on on his Facebook page. He refers to her
- 3:05Speaker 1: or his wife as quote cis under a profile picture?
- 3:11Speaker 2: What cis?
- 3:13Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? That would be big, big giveaway.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Jamie Theeden, the victim in this case, As I said,
- 3:22Speaker 1: a tiny, diminutive woman. Can you imagine this guy allegedly
- 3:27Speaker 1: living a double life, wants to take you out for
- 3:30Speaker 1: a ride. You go out, you're driving through a beautiful
- 3:32Speaker 1: desert area. You get out, and suddenly you end up
- 3:36Speaker 1: tied up to a post or a tree, and then
- 3:39Speaker 1: duct tape is placed over your mouth and knows and
- 3:41Speaker 1: you die that way. The last thing you see is
- 3:45Speaker 1: the man you love and thought loved you with me
- 3:49Speaker 1: an all start panel, but right now to Crime online
- 3:52Speaker 1: dot Com investigative reporter Dave mac Let's just start at
- 3:55Speaker 1: the beginning of this timeline and dissect this. Says you
- 3:58Speaker 1: would if you were preparing a case for trial. When
- 4:01Speaker 1: did Jamie Feeden go missing?
- 4:05Speaker 5: Nancy?
- 4:05Speaker 6: The last time Jamie was seen was September the fifteenth,
- 4:09Speaker 6: and that was when she was lured out of town
- 4:14Speaker 6: by Chapman. Chapman and Feeden had a long relationship that
- 4:17Speaker 6: goes back to high school or community college. It was
- 4:20Speaker 6: referred to as an on again, off again relationship between
- 4:23Speaker 6: the two, but it was certainly one sided on the
- 4:26Speaker 6: side of Jamie Feeden because we know that Chapman has
- 4:30Speaker 6: been married at least two times, the first time for
- 4:33Speaker 6: seven years, and was married in the last twelve months
- 4:37Speaker 6: to a lady named Maureen.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Wait wait, sorry, didn't rupt you, Dave mac But Bethany Marshall, WHOA.
- 4:43Speaker 1: I know you have to deal with a lot of
- 4:45Speaker 1: problems like how much do my boots cost on rodeo
- 4:48Speaker 1: drive with all of your clients, And my house isn't
- 4:51Speaker 1: as big as my next door neighbors, and my pool's
- 4:54Speaker 1: not in the right shape, blah blah blah. But Bethany,
- 4:57Speaker 1: in the real world, I got a real problem with
- 5:00Speaker 1: this guy, John Chapman allegedly living a double life now.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Dave matt Crime online dot Com investigator reporter tells me Theeden,
- 5:08Speaker 1: Jamie was in love with him, But when you look
- 5:10Speaker 1: at his bio on Facebook, he says, I'm a thirty
- 5:13Speaker 1: nine year old single guy from Pennsylvania. I've lived here
- 5:16Speaker 1: most of my life. I'm always trying to meet new
- 5:19Speaker 1: and interesting people. Translation, I want to get laid. That's
- 5:23Speaker 1: what that means on Facebook. Okay, that's a technical legal term, Bethany.
- 5:27Speaker 1: I'm not sure you're familiar with it. But then it
- 5:31Speaker 1: goes on now wait for it, wait for it. Any
- 5:36Speaker 1: relationship to his wife Marien is further obscured when he
- 5:41Speaker 1: comments under his wife's picture looking good, sis help me, Bethany.
- 5:49Speaker 7: Well, actually, this is kind of a classic pattern of
- 5:52Speaker 7: an antisocial personality disorder. They often lead a double life,
- 5:55Speaker 7: They have multiple sexual partners, a great deal of promiscuity.
- 6:00Speaker 7: They relate to women as sexual objects, always trying to
- 6:04Speaker 7: conquer them. And what they do with the primary love object,
- 6:07Speaker 7: the wife at home, is that they will desexualize the
- 6:11Speaker 7: wife while being overly sexualized with other women in society.
- 6:15Speaker 7: I see this actually in couple's therapy with men like this,
- 6:19Speaker 7: where they actually kind of call the wife's dude sis,
- 6:23Speaker 7: you know, poker in the ribs. Treat her like she's
- 6:25Speaker 7: a little sister. All the while they're having a double
- 6:28Speaker 7: life and affairs all over the place. But the other
- 6:31Speaker 7: part is that that Chapman's wife could probably see.
- 6:35Speaker 1: But why do they do that? Why do people desexualize
- 6:38Speaker 1: the marriage partner.
- 6:39Speaker 7: Because they want control over the marriage partner and they
- 6:43Speaker 7: only want to have sex with people who do not
- 6:46Speaker 7: see them for who they really are. You know, the
- 6:49Speaker 7: people in your primary circle know that you have feet
- 6:52Speaker 7: of clay, right, They may know that you bounce a check,
- 6:55Speaker 7: or that maybe you've got a traffic violation, or maybe
- 6:58Speaker 7: you're not so nice, or maybe your breast else in
- 7:00Speaker 7: the morning that's not sexy to them. They're going to
- 7:03Speaker 7: de sexualize those partners. There's a very famous case in
- 7:06Speaker 7: my field written up by a man named John Malloy,
- 7:09Speaker 7: who reading Malloy excuse me, who talks about a case
- 7:12Speaker 7: where a man goes out, he makes his wife dress
- 7:16Speaker 7: up as a little girl like a doll, makes her
- 7:19Speaker 7: lie down in the bathroom, goes out, has sex with
- 7:23Speaker 7: other women, comes home and deficates on her. Now, this
- 7:26Speaker 7: is a classic case in my field. We talk about
- 7:28Speaker 7: it in classes because this perpetrator was over sexualizing every
- 7:33Speaker 7: woman in the world. And then he was turning his
- 7:36Speaker 7: wife into a little girl, an object in which he
- 7:40Speaker 7: just deficates on and she has no value at all.
- 7:43Speaker 7: So this is a classic, classic pattern.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Okay, can I just apologize right now to the listeners
- 7:48Speaker 1: for what doctor Bethany Marshall just said, because I'm going
- 7:51Speaker 1: to have that stuck in my head for I don't
- 7:52Speaker 1: know how many days. Okay, thank you, doctor Bethany Marshall
- 7:56Speaker 1: for ruining the rest of my day. But you know
- 7:58Speaker 1: what I asked for it. I did not expect that answer,
- 8:01Speaker 1: But I blame myself totally, which is probably another neurosis
- 8:05Speaker 1: of some sort.
- 8:07Speaker 8: You know.
- 8:07Speaker 1: Wendy Patrick, California prosecutor and author of Red Flags. The
- 8:12Speaker 1: problem is he's got a double life, as Bethany accurately
- 8:16Speaker 1: pointed out, where the whole wife, a whole life going
- 8:19Speaker 1: on that Jamie knew nothing about. But that does not
- 8:23Speaker 1: a murder case make That's great.
- 8:25Speaker 8: And you know, it's one of those things that likely
- 8:28Speaker 8: will play into a defense in a case like this.
- 8:30Speaker 8: We hear about love triangles all the time, and men
- 8:32Speaker 8: much of the time that does involve a double life.
- 8:35Speaker 8: It's also interesting that we have some online evidence here
- 8:38Speaker 8: that desexualization, though, is fascinating, you know, not just because
- 8:42Speaker 8: of the reasons doctor Marshall mentioned, By the way, the
- 8:44Speaker 8: read Malloy case is also interesting. I work with Reid
- 8:46Speaker 8: on in threat assessment cases. But it will play in circumstantially, Nancy,
- 8:50Speaker 8: as you and I and actually John Cardillo as well
- 8:53Speaker 8: have dealt with in formulating why this isn't just a
- 8:56Speaker 8: case of someone leading a double life, and why the
- 8:59Speaker 8: circumstance is indicate it is a murder. Now, that's obviously
- 9:03Speaker 8: some of the analysis that they're going to prepare for
- 9:05Speaker 8: trial and as we move forward, because remember, right now
- 9:07Speaker 8: it's just a kidnapping, and it's also an interesting case
- 9:10Speaker 8: regarding corpus. You know, somebody can confess to a crime,
- 9:12Speaker 8: but you also need to prove that it happened, So
- 9:15Speaker 8: all of what we're discussing here will also be relevant
- 9:18Speaker 8: proving that up as well.
- 9:19Speaker 1: You know what, You're right, Wendy Patrick. The law is
- 9:22Speaker 1: that a case cannot be made on a confession alone.
- 9:27Speaker 1: It must be proven otherwise. Crime stories with Nancy Grace
- 9:40Speaker 1: in the last hours, a Pennsylvania man who kidnaps his
- 9:43Speaker 1: girlfriend has confessed to her killing. We now know he
- 9:49Speaker 1: has led a startling and disturbing double life in the
- 9:55Speaker 1: last days. This guy a Pennsylvania man, John Matthew Chapman,
- 10:03Speaker 1: convicted and sentenced to life for the murder of thirty
- 10:08Speaker 1: three year old Jamie Theeden found buried in the Nevada Desert.
- 10:13Speaker 1: But what more do we know about the facts.
- 10:15Speaker 9: Jamie Feeden was last seen September fifteenth. On September twenty third,
- 10:20Speaker 9: both Vedan and John Chapman arrived in Las Vegas after
- 10:23Speaker 9: driving across country from Bethel Park. He told her that
- 10:25Speaker 9: they were going to look at Holmes and then two
- 10:27Speaker 9: days later, Chapman told Feieden they were going to drive
- 10:30Speaker 9: to the desert.
- 10:31Speaker 2: For a photoshoot. According to court.
- 10:33Speaker 9: Paperwork, Chapman told police, while in the desert, he tied
- 10:36Speaker 9: Vedan's hands and feet to a sign pole and covered
- 10:39Speaker 9: her mouth with duct tape, causing her to suffocate and die.
- 10:42Speaker 9: He then left her and drove back to Bethel Park. Then,
- 10:45Speaker 9: on October fifth, remains of a woman were found in
- 10:48Speaker 9: the Nevada Desert, and now on October fourteenth, the missing
- 10:51Speaker 9: person's report was filed for Feeden. Chapman called police and
- 10:55Speaker 9: was asked about Fidan's disappearance. He apparently gave detectives false
- 10:59Speaker 9: information about the case. He was charged in her kidnapping.
- 11:02Speaker 1: A charge does not a jury conviction make. As you
- 11:06Speaker 1: just heard, a confession alone cannot be the basis of
- 11:12Speaker 1: a murder, indictment or conviction. It's got to be proven
- 11:16Speaker 1: and corroborated. Anybody can walk into the police station and
- 11:19Speaker 1: give a false confession. Do I believe it happens? Often? No,
- 11:23Speaker 1: but it does happen, and it wreaks havoc in the
- 11:27Speaker 1: justice system. I'm Nancy Grace. This is Crime Stories. Thank
- 11:29Speaker 1: you for being with us. You just heard from Channel
- 11:31Speaker 1: eleven w p XI Lisa Sylvester describing what we think
- 11:36Speaker 1: is the timeline breakdown doctor Tim Gallagher, the medical examiner
- 11:41Speaker 1: for the State of Florida. To top it all off,
- 11:45Speaker 1: Jamie Feeden, the murder victim had something called Vader syndrome.
- 11:50Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure what that is. I'm just a JD.
- 11:53Speaker 2: You're the MD.
- 11:55Speaker 1: I know that she was only about four feet tall,
- 11:57Speaker 1: and she had been seeing John Chapman since either high
- 12:00Speaker 1: school or community college. They have been together a long time.
- 12:04Speaker 1: On top of that, he was a eelywed. He had
- 12:07Speaker 1: been married to his wife Marine less than a year.
- 12:11Speaker 1: So explain to me, doctor Gallagher, what is Vader syndrome.
- 12:15Speaker 4: Quo Vader syndrome is a collection of developmental abnormalities that
- 12:20Speaker 4: occur in one person after they're born. A Vader v
- 12:24Speaker 4: for Victoria, the first letter represents vertebral anomalies. For instance,
- 12:31Speaker 4: they may have severe scoliosis of the spine, which is bending,
- 12:34Speaker 4: twisting of the spine. It may be extra bones in
- 12:37Speaker 4: the spine, it's not a normal spine. Also, a the
- 12:41Speaker 4: A part of Vader stands for anus, and oftentimes the
- 12:46Speaker 4: anus is not open and that has to be opened surgically.
- 12:51Speaker 4: And then there are other abnormalities of the limbs and
- 12:53Speaker 4: of the internal organs that prevent them from development. For
- 13:00Speaker 4: for developing normally. That can lead to a very short
- 13:03Speaker 4: stature and a very difficult physical life.
- 13:06Speaker 1: You know, apparently all the signs were there. Doctor Bethany Marshall,
- 13:11Speaker 1: Hollywood psychoanalyst at doctor Bethany Marshall dot com. Did you
- 13:15Speaker 1: notice that her Jamie's friends did not like John Chapman.
- 13:21Speaker 1: They did not want her seeing him. That's a big,
- 13:23Speaker 1: big red flag.
- 13:25Speaker 7: I did notice that. And one of the things that
- 13:28Speaker 7: keeps grabbing my attention about this is the fact that
- 13:32Speaker 7: she had a disability and he didn't, and did he
- 13:35Speaker 7: use that to control her, Because people with disabilities are
- 13:38Speaker 7: often abused in very specific ways. Maybe they're shamed, maybe
- 13:42Speaker 7: their disability checks are taken. Sometimes they're thrust into a
- 13:47Speaker 7: public situation where they're demeaned by their partner. They're told
- 13:51Speaker 7: that they don't they're not allowed to have restroom breaks,
- 13:54Speaker 7: or that their voice sounds silly. So he chose a
- 13:57Speaker 7: partner who he had in his life for a long
- 14:01Speaker 7: long time, who I think he could probably control and
- 14:04Speaker 7: manipulate because of her disability, and so that held meaning
- 14:07Speaker 7: for him. And we see how it all ended. He
- 14:10Speaker 7: tied her to a post, he duct taped her mouth,
- 14:14Speaker 7: he watched her suffer. I cannot believe that this was
- 14:17Speaker 7: the first time he treated her this way. It's just
- 14:20Speaker 7: that it's spilled over into a homicide at this point.
- 14:24Speaker 7: But I'm sure violence, mistreatment and abuse towards her had
- 14:28Speaker 7: been building for many, many years.
- 14:30Speaker 1: Well, I know of one incident, and I'm curious as
- 14:33Speaker 1: to whether this will come into trial. John Cardillo with
- 14:36Speaker 1: me former NYPD host of America talks on Newsmax TV.
- 14:41Speaker 1: John a friend of Jamie's, claims that Chapman mistreated her,
- 14:47Speaker 1: including using Jamie for money, and she describes an incident
- 14:53Speaker 1: when Faden Jamie allegedly arrived at a restaurant with Chapman
- 14:58Speaker 1: and Jamie had two black eyes.
- 15:01Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean that that's indicative of a long term
- 15:04Speaker 10: period of abuse. She was probably hiding it. I mean, look,
- 15:06Speaker 10: as an investigator, we'd be looking into why he would
- 15:11Speaker 10: choose to cheat on his wife with somebody with such
- 15:14Speaker 10: physical infirmities. Was there some kind of of fetish, What
- 15:18Speaker 10: was he into something? You know, weird, bizarre? Quite frankly,
- 15:21Speaker 10: if it were me, I'd be looking for other victims
- 15:23Speaker 10: at this point, other disappearances of people with similar conditions
- 15:26Speaker 10: that lived in his area. Because the fact pattern, as
- 15:29Speaker 10: we know it indicates a very troubled guy, a very
- 15:33Speaker 10: dangerous guy. And so I think the instincts of the
- 15:35Speaker 10: friends were spot on. Look, they got a bad vibe
- 15:37Speaker 10: off the guy. That's typically indicative, even though it's intangible.
- 15:40Speaker 10: And now you combine that with physical evidence signs of abuse,
- 15:43Speaker 10: black eyes, I think law enforcement's going to be looking
- 15:46Speaker 10: very hard at his electronic devices, his history as bank accounts,
- 15:49Speaker 10: and again, if it were me, I'd be looking at
- 15:51Speaker 10: other victims that were either of similar stature, similar infirmity,
- 15:55Speaker 10: that may have gone missing, victims of abuse that didn't
- 15:57Speaker 10: report it in his area, because wouldn't surprise me if
- 16:00Speaker 10: we find other victims.
- 16:01Speaker 1: Yeah, because if he's living a double life, how do
- 16:03Speaker 1: I know it's a not a triple life or even worse?
- 16:08Speaker 7: Yeah?
- 16:08Speaker 1: Right, yeah, I even thought of that, John Cardillo, you know,
- 16:11Speaker 1: another issue straight out to Dave matt crimeonline dot Com
- 16:15Speaker 1: investigative reporter, how was Jamie's body sound?
- 16:20Speaker 6: It was actually found out in the desert by a
- 16:23Speaker 6: man who was out on a hike with his two
- 16:26Speaker 6: young sons. They had pulled off they were looking at
- 16:30Speaker 6: old train engines and pulled off onto an old dirt
- 16:33Speaker 6: road out in the middle of nowhere, and one of
- 16:35Speaker 6: his older sons actually saw something in the distance that
- 16:39Speaker 6: intrigued them and it ended up being what appears to
- 16:42Speaker 6: be because she hasn't been positively identified yet, but appeared
- 16:45Speaker 6: to be the body of Jamie.
- 16:46Speaker 1: What I know is, like Dave MATC just told us,
- 16:49Speaker 1: a man was out hiking with his boys and he
- 16:54Speaker 1: says that the boys saw something in the distance, but
- 16:57Speaker 1: they didn't know what it was, so he the dad
- 17:01Speaker 1: Linso tells the boys to get back in the truck,
- 17:04Speaker 1: and he went to investigate. He finds a body and
- 17:07Speaker 1: immediately calls the Lincoln County Sheriff's department. He says, at
- 17:11Speaker 1: first he thought it was a child's body because the
- 17:14Speaker 1: body was so tiny. And this is very probative or
- 17:19Speaker 1: proved something to me. You know, sometimes I see a
- 17:23Speaker 1: fact and I don't know exactly what it's telling me about.
- 17:26Speaker 1: I know that it's probative and will be probative at trial.
- 17:29Speaker 1: There were no clothes on the body and no clothes
- 17:34Speaker 1: to be found anywhere nearby, so her attack or her
- 17:39Speaker 1: killer either raped her or had sex with her and
- 17:43Speaker 1: left her that way, naked and tied to a post
- 17:47Speaker 1: in the desert with a duct tape over her mouth
- 17:50Speaker 1: and knows, or he took her clothing away so her
- 17:56Speaker 1: body would not be identified trial fact. Under the law,
- 18:02Speaker 1: the state can bring in evidence of what occurred before, during,
- 18:05Speaker 1: and after the incident to show frame of mind, course
- 18:09Speaker 1: of conduct mo motus operaandi. Neither of those two scenarios
- 18:14Speaker 1: reflect well on John Chapman at all. The body, Jamie
- 18:20Speaker 1: Feeden was already heavily decomposed and just dumped off like
- 18:27Speaker 1: a piece of trash. Police say Chapman asked Jamie to
- 18:32Speaker 1: drive to Las Vegas, Nevada for a vacation, then allegedly
- 18:37Speaker 1: brings her to the Nevada desert for a photoshoot where
- 18:41Speaker 1: he actually tied her up and bound her mouth and nose.
- 18:45Speaker 1: After luring her to Vegas for an alleged vacation, he
- 18:50Speaker 1: murders her. Chapman then charged with kidnapping and other counts,
- 18:56Speaker 1: now murder. What more happened in the Nevada day.
- 19:00Speaker 11: According to police, while she was missing, The victim's family
- 19:03Speaker 11: says someone reached out to them from her Facebook messenger account,
- 19:06Speaker 11: pretending to be the victim. The police sate Chapman was
- 19:09Speaker 11: on the other end.
- 19:10Speaker 1: Will it be able to be proven at trial that
- 19:14Speaker 1: this is Jamie Feeden and that John Chapman murdered her?
- 19:18Speaker 2: Big problem?
- 19:19Speaker 1: Of course, we all know that a murder case can
- 19:21Speaker 1: be proven without a body, but it does present a
- 19:25Speaker 1: host of difficulties. I'm Nancy Grace, this is Crime Stories.
- 19:28Speaker 1: Thank you for being with us. You were just hearing
- 19:30Speaker 1: our friends at Channel eleven w p XI. That was
- 19:33Speaker 1: Gabrielle de Luca reporting, Oh Man, every time we think
- 19:39Speaker 1: we're within reach of enough evidence to charge with murder,
- 19:43Speaker 1: another wrinkle appears in the case. How can she be
- 19:49Speaker 1: positively identified? To doctor Tim Gallagher, medical examiner for the
- 19:53Speaker 1: State of Florida, With her body in such an advanced
- 19:56Speaker 1: state of decomposure, how can she be identified?
- 20:00Speaker 4: We do have her skeletal remains, and because of her
- 20:02Speaker 4: medical condition, it's more than likely that she has X
- 20:07Speaker 4: rays that were taken out a doctor's office that we
- 20:09Speaker 4: can use to compare against the remains to see what
- 20:13Speaker 4: her developmental abnormalities are. You know, she does have a
- 20:19Speaker 4: Vader syndrome which has very distinct bone patterns, and I'm
- 20:24Speaker 4: sure that we could positively identify her using X rays
- 20:28Speaker 4: from her doctor's office and comparing those against the bony remains.
- 20:32Speaker 1: Well, what about her dental records.
- 20:34Speaker 4: We can also use that as a supplemental form of
- 20:37Speaker 4: identification as well. Between the two and the circumstances that
- 20:42Speaker 4: surround her being there, positive identification is certainly within the
- 20:47Speaker 4: realm of possibility.
- 20:48Speaker 1: And I'm going to circle back to John Cardillo about
- 20:50Speaker 1: her missing clothing. But doctor Tim Gallagher explain how specific
- 20:55Speaker 1: dental records can be unique to one individual like a thing.
- 21:00Speaker 4: Oh, absolutely it can, especially when there are dental restorations,
- 21:04Speaker 4: meaning some of the cavities have been filled with an amalgam,
- 21:07Speaker 4: some of the orthodonic work may still be in place.
- 21:11Speaker 4: We can use distinct and individualized characters of the person's
- 21:17Speaker 4: dental X rays to compare against the dental work that
- 21:20Speaker 4: they received. Additionally, gaps in the teeth or root patterns
- 21:27Speaker 4: that are the tooth that are below the gum line
- 21:29Speaker 4: are very distinctive individual to individual, and we could use
- 21:33Speaker 4: those dental records to compare and find the identification of
- 21:39Speaker 4: the person.
- 21:40Speaker 2: What does it say to you?
- 21:41Speaker 1: John Cardillo, host America, talks on News Next TV former
- 21:44Speaker 1: NYPD that all of our clothing was missing.
- 21:47Speaker 10: Well, one of the easiest ways to identify someone, right,
- 21:50Speaker 10: I mean, if you take the clothing, you can compare
- 21:52Speaker 10: it to maybe a photo that a victim posted to
- 21:54Speaker 10: social media the day before they went missing, a photo
- 21:57Speaker 10: a friend took of them. Family members would have made
- 22:00Speaker 10: maybe the mom or the dad says, oh yep, that
- 22:02Speaker 10: was her favorite church.
- 22:03Speaker 1: You loved that.
- 22:03Speaker 10: I bought it for her last Christmas, that's definitely hers.
- 22:07Speaker 10: And in her case, because of her condition Vader syndrome
- 22:10Speaker 10: and her stature, her clothing would have been very unique,
- 22:12Speaker 10: potentially child's clothing. So if you had those photos of
- 22:16Speaker 10: the clothing the day before or day that she disappeared
- 22:19Speaker 10: on social media on a cell phone, or the family
- 22:22Speaker 10: friends saying Yep, that's definitely hers. I had to buy
- 22:24Speaker 10: it for her. In the child section, you've got a
- 22:27Speaker 10: pretty key piece of evidence for identification, So removing them
- 22:30Speaker 10: certainly indicates that someone didn't want her to be identified
- 22:33Speaker 10: if she was found.
- 22:34Speaker 2: What do you make of it?
- 22:34Speaker 1: Wendy Patcheck, California prosecutor and author of Red Flag.
- 22:37Speaker 8: I'm just sort of adding to what's already been said.
- 22:40Speaker 8: You can get rid of the clothes, but you cannot
- 22:43Speaker 8: always get rid of what the remains tell you about
- 22:46Speaker 8: whose body this is, and particularly when you have these
- 22:49Speaker 8: unique features as we've been discussing. Of course, nobody wants
- 22:53Speaker 8: to jump to conclusions or reach them prematurely, but Nancy
- 22:56Speaker 8: is certainly back to one of the things you said earlier.
- 22:58Speaker 8: When it comes to pruiting a murder, we always like
- 23:01Speaker 8: to say we don't want to be callous about it,
- 23:03Speaker 8: but no body, no problem in terms of reaching a verdict,
- 23:07Speaker 8: but it has to proceed very differently the circumstances surrounding
- 23:11Speaker 8: why we know, even if we hadn't found a body
- 23:14Speaker 8: in this case, that's not to say a murder can't
- 23:16Speaker 8: be proven here. It is a lot more, is a
- 23:19Speaker 8: lot easier. And not only do we have the kind
- 23:22Speaker 8: of unique features we can match up the fact that
- 23:25Speaker 8: this man shows this particular woman, John talks about looking
- 23:28Speaker 8: for similar victims, one of the things we may find
- 23:30Speaker 8: in common is vulnerability. The vulnerability, the exploitation that took
- 23:35Speaker 8: place here. You know, this is one we also don't
- 23:37Speaker 8: need to prove motive, but motives going to matter in
- 23:40Speaker 8: a case like this, and everything we've been talking about
- 23:43Speaker 8: are just more of the things that the prosecutors are
- 23:45Speaker 8: going to get in line in getting this case ready
- 23:48Speaker 8: to go to which you're adding additional charges.
- 23:50Speaker 1: Well, here's another piece of evidence. Apparently even after she
- 23:55Speaker 1: goes missing, she is still continuing to Facebook.
- 23:59Speaker 5: Listen, we're back at the alleged victims Bethel Park home,
- 24:02Speaker 5: searching for more evidence. Police say the victim's uncle was
- 24:06Speaker 5: getting Facebook messages purporting to be her, but which we're
- 24:09Speaker 5: giving incorrect answers to questions.
- 24:13Speaker 12: But we don't believe that was in fact her. We
- 24:16Speaker 12: believe was mister Chapman posing as her.
- 24:18Speaker 5: The chief says, the investigation is continuing here and in Nevada.
- 24:23Speaker 12: What he has said that is in fact true, and
- 24:28Speaker 12: we're gonna have to see if we can find Jamie
- 24:33Speaker 12: either living or deceased, and we're hoping that there's still
- 24:37Speaker 12: a ray of hope that she is alive and we
- 24:39Speaker 12: can bring her back home safely.
- 24:41Speaker 1: You're hearing our friends at w t AE needs for
- 24:44Speaker 1: that was reporter Bob Mayo. You're also hearing Police Chief
- 24:49Speaker 1: Timothy O'Connor, what more do you need for Pete's sake?
- 24:53Speaker 1: Who would go on her Facebook and pretend to be her?
- 24:56Speaker 1: And I've got the Facebook postings? This is Jamie the
- 25:00Speaker 1: missing woman. H question to Jamie, did I miss something?
- 25:04Speaker 1: Did you and John break up? Someone wrote her? She
- 25:07Speaker 1: writes back, Yeah, but we're still friends. What happened? She writes,
- 25:11Speaker 1: Apparently I was too clinging and he couldn't take it.
- 25:14Speaker 1: Thinking back, maybe I was and I did not try
- 25:17Speaker 1: to be. But it's hard when I care so much question.
- 25:21Speaker 1: I feel you, girl, She responds. It was my idea
- 25:25Speaker 1: to be friends because I didn't want us to hate
- 25:26Speaker 1: each other. My family was also an issue as well.
- 25:31Speaker 1: Another question, when's John's birthday? That's an odd question. Have
- 25:35Speaker 1: you tried asking him? Maybe, try getting to know him?
- 25:40Speaker 2: Answer?
- 25:40Speaker 1: No, lol, I just saw a John Chapman in the
- 25:44Speaker 1: paper with a birthday. Didn't know if it was him, lol.
- 25:47Speaker 1: She allegedly writes back, Honestly, I'm not sure about John's birthday.
- 25:53Speaker 1: We dated, but I didn't feel he was quote the one,
- 25:55Speaker 1: and there was a lot I didn't know about him.
- 25:58Speaker 1: He has a history, I know that, but I never
- 26:01Speaker 1: felt unsafe around him, and he was always upfront about
- 26:04Speaker 1: his past.
- 26:05Speaker 2: Really crime stories with Nancy Grace.
- 26:20Speaker 1: A Pennsylvania man, John Matthew Chapman now gets life behind
- 26:25Speaker 1: bars for murdering a woman found in the Nevada desert. Apparently,
- 26:30Speaker 1: the wife, Maureene Chapman, practically a bride herself, had no
- 26:35Speaker 1: idea of her husband's cheating until he called her from
- 26:38Speaker 1: the Bethel Park Police Department. Wife Maureene said Chapman told
- 26:43Speaker 1: her he was taking her truck for a work trip
- 26:45Speaker 1: in Vegas after visiting relatives in Bethel Park. The truck
- 26:51Speaker 1: is now considered key evidence in a murder. Looking at
- 26:55Speaker 1: his Facebook page, is bio reads I'm a thirty nine
- 26:59Speaker 1: year old single from Pennsylvania. I've lived here most of
- 27:02Speaker 1: my life. I'm always trying to meet new and interesting people. Well,
- 27:06Speaker 1: you're not going to meet them out in the middle
- 27:09Speaker 1: of the desert.
- 27:10Speaker 2: This guy is a killer.
- 27:12Speaker 1: All romantic relationship with now wife Maureen is hidden when
- 27:17Speaker 1: he comments looking good sis under his wife's profile picture
- 27:22Speaker 1: and later lists his wife as his sister.
- 27:26Speaker 2: The wife now says, quote.
- 27:28Speaker 1: It's sick. It's really sick. I just want the truth
- 27:32Speaker 1: as to what happened. I feel I'm owed that, you're
- 27:36Speaker 1: owed that. What about Jamie's family? She's dead. Friends weighing in,
- 27:41Speaker 1: claiming that no one had any idea Chapman was married.
- 27:45Speaker 1: You know, at this point, I'd be more concerned about
- 27:47Speaker 1: the murder than the two timing.
- 27:50Speaker 2: What more do we know?
- 27:52Speaker 3: His stepmom told me he's married to another woman and
- 27:55Speaker 3: has been for about a year. The family says they
- 27:57Speaker 3: thought John Chapman was going to work for a trip
- 28:00Speaker 3: to Las Vegas, but that wasn't the case. According to police,
- 28:03Speaker 3: Chapman's family told me he met Jamie Fieden at either
- 28:06Speaker 3: a high school or a college for students with special
- 28:09Speaker 3: educational needs, and that he often has a lot of
- 28:11Speaker 3: close friends. Police a Chapman would often stay at Pheeden's
- 28:14Speaker 3: Bethel Park town home. Chapman's family also tells me he
- 28:18Speaker 3: was living with his wife and his mom in Oakmont
- 28:21Speaker 3: through the summer, and everything seemed to be fine until
- 28:23Speaker 3: they got a phone call from police a few hours ago.
- 28:27Speaker 13: What went through my mind is just what a horribly
- 28:30Speaker 13: sad tragedy. You know, we had heard that he had
- 28:34Speaker 13: gone to Las Vegas. He was going there for he said,
- 28:37Speaker 13: for a work convention. So I think at this point
- 28:39Speaker 13: we're all just in shock. It's just kind of you know,
- 28:42Speaker 13: it's it's just what you know. It doesn't seem like
- 28:45Speaker 13: it's real.
- 28:46Speaker 1: A work convention, man, that is so tired a work convention.
- 28:52Speaker 1: You were just hearing from our friends at Channel eleven
- 28:55Speaker 1: wp XI, that was Amy Hood at reporting Wow and
- 29:00Speaker 1: heard the voice of Pamela Chapman. This guy had really
- 29:04Speaker 1: snowed everybody. But I want to circle back to Bethany Marshall,
- 29:08Speaker 1: psychoanalyst in Hollywood, Bethany, she need this guy, Jamie need
- 29:14Speaker 1: John Chapman since they were in high school. But these
- 29:18Speaker 1: Facebook posting is these text responses. Honestly, I'm not sure
- 29:22Speaker 1: about his birthday. We dated, but I didn't really know
- 29:26Speaker 1: that much about him.
- 29:27Speaker 7: What Nancy, the fact that he's on her Facebook. Not
- 29:30Speaker 7: only is he trying to throw people off the trail,
- 29:32Speaker 7: but this tells me that he has infiltrated every part
- 29:36Speaker 7: of this victim's life. He men are at a school
- 29:39Speaker 7: for people with disabilities. He doesn't have a disability, so
- 29:42Speaker 7: that tells me he specifically chose her because of her disability.
- 29:46Speaker 7: People with disabilities tend to be more isolated. They're vulnerable,
- 29:50Speaker 7: they have fewer friends, they have less access to the
- 29:53Speaker 7: justice system. They are more willing to be pliable to
- 29:56Speaker 7: give their money away, to do anything to keep me
- 30:00Speaker 7: the love of the love objects, so he targeted her.
- 30:03Speaker 7: He had her under his firm control. One of the
- 30:06Speaker 7: reasons I believe she didn't have clothing on. According to
- 30:09Speaker 7: one report, he told her that they were going to
- 30:12Speaker 7: like a bondage and discipline photo shoot in the desert,
- 30:17Speaker 7: so he may have taken her clothes off before he
- 30:19Speaker 7: tied her to that poll, and the poor little thing
- 30:22Speaker 7: may have thought that she was, you know, sexy, and
- 30:24Speaker 7: he wanted her and he was taking pictures of her.
- 30:27Speaker 7: But not only that, then he poses as her on
- 30:31Speaker 7: her Facebook account, which tells me that he also believed
- 30:35Speaker 7: that she belonged to him, that she was his possession,
- 30:38Speaker 7: He could do whatever he liked with her body, her money,
- 30:41Speaker 7: her home, he stayed there, with her social media, that
- 30:45Speaker 7: it all belonged to him, including her life.
- 30:49Speaker 1: To John Cardillo, former NYPD, how do you trace from
- 30:54Speaker 1: where these messages came?
- 30:56Speaker 10: Oh, there are several ways you can do it. You can,
- 30:59Speaker 10: obviously you can locate IP address, You can ping his
- 31:01Speaker 10: cell phone. You can uh look and see if the
- 31:04Speaker 10: IP was coordinating with where his vehicle was, if you
- 31:08Speaker 10: can get a subpoena for the GPS on his car.
- 31:11Speaker 12: I mean, law enforcement.
- 31:12Speaker 10: Today, it's it's it's much easier to track your electronic
- 31:16Speaker 10: footprint in many respects than if you completely went offline,
- 31:19Speaker 10: went totally analog, and we're just walking around without any device.
- 31:22Speaker 10: So really you're you're you're a walking home beacon as
- 31:26Speaker 10: long as you've got a cell phone on you, and
- 31:28Speaker 10: if you've got any of the laptops that have wireless.
- 31:30Speaker 1: You know, it's even freak here out to Crime online
- 31:32Speaker 1: dot Com investigative reporter Dave Mack, a friend of Jamie's
- 31:37Speaker 1: got very suspicious and she's the one posing these questions
- 31:41Speaker 1: and he's giving some of the wrong answers. She got
- 31:44Speaker 1: very apprehensive about Chapman because he friended her the friend
- 31:51Speaker 1: on Facebook and began commenting on her photos like a
- 31:56Speaker 1: beautiful rose for a very beautiful woman. Of my husband
- 32:02Speaker 1: David Lynch sent a picture of a rose or commented
- 32:06Speaker 1: on a rose, A beautiful rose for a beautiful woman.
- 32:10Speaker 1: And it wasn't to me, you know, all h E
- 32:14Speaker 1: l would break loose. Dave Matt tell me about these postings.
- 32:17Speaker 1: How dare he friend her friend after he's killed her.
- 32:21Speaker 1: He's basically coming on to her online.
- 32:23Speaker 6: I think he was the ultimate con man, trying to
- 32:25Speaker 6: cover his tracks by trying to get this woman who
- 32:28Speaker 6: did not like him, but trying to get her to
- 32:30Speaker 6: warm up to him to continue his con But there's
- 32:33Speaker 6: something else very interesting about his pattern over the years.
- 32:36Speaker 6: In his first marriage, where he was married for seven years,
- 32:39Speaker 6: he and that wife stayed with Jamie Pheden at some
- 32:43Speaker 6: point during the marriage, and Chapman told his wife to
- 32:47Speaker 6: pretend that she was his sister so they could stay there.
- 32:52Speaker 6: And that wife, Tammy, said that she that Chapman bled
- 32:55Speaker 6: Jamie Drive every penny she had. Then after the divorce,
- 33:00Speaker 6: she found a number of zip block baggies that Chapman
- 33:04Speaker 6: had that had girls panties in these baggies with the
- 33:09Speaker 6: a name written on the baggie. And the question is
- 33:12Speaker 6: how many women did he possibly kill?
- 33:16Speaker 1: Okay, that's shedding a whole new light on this, and
- 33:19Speaker 1: it was mentioned earlier by John Cardillo, who really hit
- 33:22Speaker 1: the nail on the head. Are there other victims? I
- 33:25Speaker 1: want you to take a listen to our friends at
- 33:27Speaker 1: channel on eleven WPXI. This is Gabriel Gabrielle de Luca.
- 33:31Speaker 11: According to the criminal complaint, the suspect bound the victim's
- 33:33Speaker 11: hands and feet with plastic zip ties and it fixed.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Her to a signpost.
- 33:37Speaker 11: He then applied duct tape to her mouth and then
- 33:40Speaker 11: to her nose until such a time that she was
- 33:42Speaker 11: unable to breathe. Police say she suffocated, and Chapman then
- 33:45Speaker 11: untied her, removed the tape in her clothing, and left
- 33:48Speaker 11: her there. According to detectives in Las Vegas. They did
- 33:51Speaker 11: locate a body that fits many of the unique characteristics
- 33:54Speaker 11: of Jamie.
- 33:54Speaker 12: Finding a body, you're going to have to do your
- 33:57Speaker 12: due diligence to make sure that's the exact So until
- 34:01Speaker 12: we receive actual confirmation that they have found her, I mean,
- 34:06Speaker 12: there's always a possibility that she's still alive someone out there,
- 34:10Speaker 12: and we'd like to bring her home.
- 34:12Speaker 1: Wendy Patrick, This woman, Jamie Feden, has been described as sweet, gentle,
- 34:19Speaker 1: loving soul taken advantage of by a predator, and over
- 34:23Speaker 1: all the years I've prosecuted and covered crimes, it just
- 34:27Speaker 1: hurts me that the most tender and the most vulnerable
- 34:31Speaker 1: people are the ones that become victims.
- 34:34Speaker 12: Matthew.
- 34:34Speaker 8: It's just heartbreaking. And part of the reason that these
- 34:37Speaker 8: types of things happen, as you and I and John
- 34:39Speaker 8: and doctor Marshall have no doubt always encountered, is that
- 34:43Speaker 8: people that are less than the absolute physical ideal, less
- 34:48Speaker 8: than the kind of intelligence most people would want, are
- 34:51Speaker 8: uniquely susceptible to targeted attention. They're not used to receiving
- 34:55Speaker 8: flattery or sexual attention of any kind, and they are
- 34:58Speaker 8: also uniquelyvulnerable for exactly that reason. That's just what John
- 35:02Speaker 8: Cardillo said earlier, that maybe this is somebody who does
- 35:06Speaker 8: target this pool of individuals. And Dave Mack really kind
- 35:10Speaker 8: of shed the light on what we've learned so far
- 35:13Speaker 8: that brings it full circle, Nancy, to make it seem
- 35:16Speaker 8: like this fits a profile of that kind of a man.
- 35:19Speaker 8: And I would even add that what you pointed out
- 35:20Speaker 8: about friending the friends of the victim also not only
- 35:24Speaker 8: fits that profile, but also serves to further the narrative
- 35:27Speaker 8: of this victum, somehow is still alive.
- 35:30Speaker 1: We now know there acclaims Chapman mistreated Jamie, including using
- 35:34Speaker 1: her for money, and there was an incident when Jamie
- 35:38Speaker 1: arrived to a bar with Chapman with two black eyes.
- 35:42Speaker 1: It goes on and on with this guy, John Matthew
- 35:46Speaker 1: Chapman wrought in hell after a lifetime behind bars. Nancy
- 35:55Speaker 1: Gray signing off goodbye friends,
