- 1:06Speaker 2: and twenty five pounds. Last scene twelve thirty in the morning,

- 1:27Speaker 2: young lady.
- 1:27Speaker 1: Pikesville, Maryland. Where is it. It's in Baltimore County, Maryland.
- 1:32Speaker 1: There's a lot of missing people there. That is just
- 1:35Speaker 1: northwest of Baltimore city limits. It's a suburb. It's a
- 1:40Speaker 1: beautiful little suburb, closest the first one out of Baltimore.
- 1:45Speaker 1: Now listen to this, Dave Mack. Has got a very
- 1:48Speaker 1: low population, about thirty thousand people, which means you've got
- 1:52Speaker 1: a smaller suspect pool. But it's a corridor along Interstate
- 1:58Speaker 1: seven ninety five. That's not good. It links to the
- 2:02Speaker 1: Baltimore belt Way, all right, that's not good. I don't
- 2:07Speaker 1: need to bring up Shasta and Dylan Gronie. A purps
- 2:10Speaker 1: saw them from driving down the interstate, spotted them, went back,
- 2:14Speaker 1: wiped out their family, and stole the children. That concerns
- 2:18Speaker 1: me whenever I find out that a location is near
- 2:21Speaker 1: an interstate Pikesville, Maryland. What more can you tell me
- 2:26Speaker 1: about Pikesville, Dave matc It is.
- 2:28Speaker 2: About twenty minutes from Baltimore. Would be referred to as
- 2:32Speaker 2: a bedroom community, a commuter community, and as you mentioned,
- 2:35Speaker 2: we're talking six ninety five ninety five major Highway throwfares
- 2:39Speaker 2: going through there and very close to Baltimore, so you've
- 2:42Speaker 2: got people driving constantly back and forth. But she went missing.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Remember this, She goes missing twelve thirty at night in Pikesville.
- 2:51Speaker 2: So was she communicating with somebody online? Was she meeting somebody?
- 2:57Speaker 2: Was she you know? What was she going to do
- 2:59Speaker 2: that night? It's not a time where a child in
- 3:02Speaker 2: school would be out rambling during the week, they would
- 3:05Speaker 2: normally be inside. So a lot going on here, but
- 3:08Speaker 2: not a lot of information, just that she is missing
- 3:12Speaker 2: and we've got to find her again. Four foot eight,
- 3:14Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five pounds. You would recognize a
- 3:17Speaker 2: sixteen year old that size.
- 3:18Speaker 1: You know. Another thing, the fact that she's last spotted
- 3:23Speaker 1: at twelve thirty in the morning makes me wonder where
- 3:28Speaker 1: was she who spotted her? Did her family see her
- 3:33Speaker 1: in the in the home? Was she going to bed.
- 3:37Speaker 1: There's been very little out there about Miracle Namma Moni,

- 4:34Speaker 1: maybe a sophomore in high school. What is she doing
- 4:38Speaker 1: out at twelve thirty or was she viewed in her

- 5:20Speaker 1: crime news Now.
- 5:21Speaker 3: I'm Drew Nelson. A huge distraction is now hanging over
- 5:24Speaker 3: a Team USA skater at the Winter Games after her
- 5:27Speaker 3: former childhood coach is arrested back home in Texas on
- 5:31Speaker 3: sex crime accusations involving athletes. Dallas area coach Benjamin Schrotz,
- 5:37Speaker 3: aged forty seven, is charged with indecency with a child
- 5:39Speaker 3: and sexual assault. Police say two athletes reported inappropriate relationships,
- 5:44Speaker 3: and investigators believe one began when the skater was still
- 5:47Speaker 3: a minor. Schrotz once coached American Olympian Amber Glenn, who
- 5:51Speaker 3: is currently competing overseas. A judge has barred him from
- 5:54Speaker 3: coaching or contacting skaters while the case moves forward. The
- 5:58Speaker 3: arrest is rattling the skating community, where coach athlete relationships
- 6:02Speaker 3: often begin in childhood and last for years. Former international
- 6:06Speaker 3: competitor Beverly Wooden now works as a licensed counselor and
- 6:10Speaker 3: is offering free therapy to anyone affected.
- 6:12Speaker 4: A lot of athletes are hesitant to come forward right
- 6:15Speaker 4: away because the coach is the person who holds your
- 6:19Speaker 4: dreams in your hands, and it's hard to challenge them
- 6:22Speaker 4: or speak up about it when they could potentially ruin
- 6:24Speaker 4: your career for doing so.
- 6:25Speaker 3: Wooden tails KTVT. The structure of figure skating itself can
- 6:29Speaker 3: create unusually private situations in the.
- 6:33Speaker 4: Figure skating environment. Most of your lessons are private lessons,
- 6:36Speaker 4: so it's you and the coach one on one, so
- 6:38Speaker 4: you have a lot more direct interaction versus with a
- 6:41Speaker 4: sport such as soccer a volleyball, where it's more team based.
- 6:44Speaker 3: Authorities have not said whether additional accusers have come forward.
- 6:48Speaker 3: Schwrotz Attorneys says he unequivocally denies the allegations and the
- 6:52Speaker 3: case should be decided in court, not in public opinion.
- 6:56Speaker 3: Please say. The investigation began February fifteenth after a report
- 7:00Speaker 3: was filed with Allan Police, and it remains active as
- 7:03Speaker 3: the Olympic flame burns thousands of miles away on the ice.
- 7:07Speaker 3: Amber Glenn has had a turbulent Olympics. She did help
- 7:10Speaker 3: the United States capture gold in the team event, but
- 7:13Speaker 3: then struggled in her own individual programs, finishing outside metal
- 7:17Speaker 3: contention after mistakes in the short program and landing thirteenth overall.
- 7:23Speaker 5: I'm Jennifer Gould. What started as a frantic nine one
- 7:27Speaker 5: one call about a midnight burglary in Tip City, Ohio,
- 7:31Speaker 5: has exploded into a chilling arrest of a former American
- 7:36Speaker 5: IDOL crooner who allegedly orchestrated his pregnant wife's execution. Here's
- 7:43Speaker 5: part of the nine to one one call.
- 7:46Speaker 1: What do you see my wife?
- 7:54Speaker 5: Caleb Flynn thirty nine, who once charmed national audiences by
- 7:59Speaker 5: gushing how much he loved his wife, now sits behind
- 8:03Speaker 5: bars on a two million dollar bond after his twisted
- 8:07Speaker 5: home invasion hoax hit a sour note with investigators. Here's
- 8:12Speaker 5: calebon Ai back in twenty thirteen.
- 8:15Speaker 3: I love my wife more than anything. She is very,
- 8:18Speaker 3: very pretty, just I love her.
- 8:21Speaker 5: The nightmare unfolded at two thirty am on February sixteenth,
- 8:25Speaker 5: when police rushed to the family's Cunningham Court residence. Officers
- 8:30Speaker 5: found thirty seven year old Ashley Flynn, a beloved Tippecanoe
- 8:34Speaker 5: Middle school volleyball coach and substitute teacher known for her warm,
- 8:39Speaker 5: smiling kindness, shot twice in the head. The unborn baby
- 8:44Speaker 5: was also killed. The couple, both Lee University grads and
- 8:49Speaker 5: active in the Christian Life Center, seemed picture perfect backyard
- 8:54Speaker 5: volleyball nets, driveway hoops, church involvement. While Flynn claimed a
- 8:59Speaker 5: mist reintruder breached their sanctuary, authorities quickly smelled a rat.
- 9:05Speaker 5: The crime scene featured a shoved aside fridge and a
- 9:09Speaker 5: rifled truck console where Caleb allegedly stashed the nine millimeter
- 9:15Speaker 5: murder weapon. Even more chilling, the couple's two young daughters
- 9:19Speaker 5: and their golden doodles were inside the house as the
- 9:23Speaker 5: life was blasted out of their mom. The community is
- 9:27Speaker 5: in a state of total shock, reeling from the betrayal
- 9:31Speaker 5: of a man who served as a music pastor and
- 9:35Speaker 5: even recently sold worship seating. Neighbor John Lenning spoke to
- 9:40Speaker 5: WHIOTV seven.
- 9:41Speaker 1: Been very disconcerting. I mean, you know you think you.
- 9:44Speaker 2: Know your neighbors.
- 9:46Speaker 5: Investigators from the FBI and Ohio BCI noted that despite
- 9:50Speaker 5: the staged forced entry, two spent shell casings at the
- 9:54Speaker 5: foot of the bed pointed directly to an inside job.
- 9:59Speaker 5: By February ninthnineteenth, the spotlight turned into a mugshot as
- 10:04Speaker 5: Flynn was hit with murder, felonious assault, and evidence tampering charges.
- 10:09Speaker 5: The irony is deafening. During his Season twelve Idle audition,
- 10:15Speaker 5: Flynn compared Ashley's beauty to carry Underwood. He advanced to
- 10:20Speaker 5: Hollywood but did not make the finals. Now Caleb remains
- 10:24Speaker 5: in Miami County jail as the case unfolds, The motive
- 10:28Speaker 5: remains a mystery.
- 10:30Speaker 6: I'm Nicole Parton. A woman from Minnesota faces felony charges
- 10:34Speaker 6: of child endangerment following an alleged assault on a ten
- 10:37Speaker 6: year old girl. Amber Lynn Raymond. She's thirty one, is
- 10:41Speaker 6: being charged with gross misdemeanors for malicious punishment of a
- 10:45Speaker 6: child and child neglect. The situation came to light on
- 10:48Speaker 6: February one when police received a report about a video
- 10:52Speaker 6: reportedly showing a man repeatedly striking the young girl. The
- 10:57Speaker 6: incident reportedly took place in the home that Raymond shared
- 11:01Speaker 6: with her boyfriend, Basil Neil Woods. Law enforcement obtained that video,
- 11:06Speaker 6: which allegedly shows the man, twenty five, wearing a mask
- 11:10Speaker 6: and lightweight boxing gloves that seemed to lack significant patting.
- 11:15Speaker 6: He is said to have entered the bedroom where the
- 11:17Speaker 6: child was asleep on the floor. He proceeded to punch
- 11:20Speaker 6: her in several areas, including the shoulder, the buttocks, the arm.
- 11:24Speaker 6: The girl cried out in pain. The complaint indicates that
- 11:28Speaker 6: Woods can be heard shouting at the girl before hitting
- 11:30Speaker 6: her again in the back of the head. After the
- 11:33Speaker 6: child tried to shield herself with a blanket, Woods allegedly
- 11:36Speaker 6: continued to assault her with the boxing gloves, threatening her
- 11:40Speaker 6: and making disturbing remarks. Woods is accused of striking the
- 11:43Speaker 6: girls again in the ribs before leaving the room. Authorities
- 11:47Speaker 6: conducted a search of the home on February four, where
- 11:50Speaker 6: the woman was present and allegedly assisted police in locating
- 11:53Speaker 6: the boxing gloves used in the assault. Investigators described the
- 11:57Speaker 6: home as chaotic and unsanitary. More than fifteen cats, turtles
- 12:03Speaker 6: waste the refrigerator was locked up. During an interview with investigators,
- 12:07Speaker 6: Raymond reportedly admitted to being aware of the assault and
- 12:11Speaker 6: claimed that she had asked the man to help her
- 12:14Speaker 6: with the girl. Acknowledging her involvement in the attack, she
- 12:18Speaker 6: asserted that the use of gloves was intended for playful boxing,
- 12:23Speaker 6: not to inflict pain. Raymond is set to appear in
- 12:26Speaker 6: court on February twenty six. She has not yet entered
- 12:29Speaker 6: a plea. The man was arrested on February three and
- 12:32Speaker 6: is facing charges of gross misdemeanor malicious punishment of a child.
