  Speaker 1: Hi, are you good?
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: How are you home?
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: Police are speaking with Manuel Gian. Living inside his trailer
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: are his son Manny and his girlfriend Brianna. They've been
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: hiding a horrifying secret from their families that this detective
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: is about to uncover.
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: Hey, Mannie a Brianna, You guys know I am here
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: trying to talk to you guys.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: A year ago, the couple killed their daughter, buried her
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: body in the woods near their trailer, and continued living
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: as if nothing happened. Over time, Brihanna's family began to
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: grow suspicious, tipping off police that something is seriously wrong.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: By the time investigators catch on to the lies, both
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: killers would walk free, leaving their families and detectives to
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: confront one of the darkest and most tragic discoveries of
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: their lives.
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: State killed her, I did, and I know you've been
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: nine to us.
• 1:09
  Speaker 6: Tell us me that right there?
• 1:11
  Speaker 7: Y Oh, that's the feeling.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: This is the home of Aurelia and Manuel Senior, the
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: parents of many Guienne. Police believe Manny is connected to
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: a missing child investigation. Two days ago, Eddie County deputies
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: received a troubling call from relatives of Manny's girlfriend, twenty
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: four year olds Brianna Stallings reporting something concerning about her daughter.
• 1:43
  Speaker 8: We were concerned about my cousin.
• 1:46
  Speaker 9: Her name is Brandon Bali and we've never seen her
• 1:50
  Speaker 9: with her maybe anymore Grumpton all on social media and
• 1:53
  Speaker 9: everything with a guy named Manny many Gian.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: Brianna's cousin, would go on to explain that the family
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: hasn't seen Breonna's daughter in nearly a year, and that
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: one of the last places the child was seen alive
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: is right here at the residence of Manny's parents. These
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: officers are here simply to conduct a welfare check. Unknowingly,
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: they are moments away from stepping into one of the
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: most disturbing murder investigations of their careers.
• 2:24
  Speaker 10: Cassie, Hi, how are you, sir? Nice to meet you, Manuel,
• 2:39
  Speaker 10: Is anyone else here?
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Can we go talk over here?
• 2:45
  Speaker 11: You okay them?
• 2:46
  Speaker 7: Quick?
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Do you know if any well?
• 2:52
  Speaker 10: What are you here already?
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 2:53
  Speaker 12: I know away when I know my child because one day, uh,
• 3:00
  Speaker 12: they appeared over there. They had a problem.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: She don't here.
• 3:03
  Speaker 12: What did they they get up here?
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: But she's praying here she sprained it.
• 3:09
  Speaker 13: Did you know if the baby had been born? Did
• 3:11
  Speaker 13: you ever see the baby.
• 3:13
  Speaker 12: And gave open Now they will were together. They were
• 3:17
  Speaker 12: too good and uh like you.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: According to Manny's father, Brianna appeared estranged from her own family.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: She didn't seem to have anyone looking out for her,
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: and slowly began leaning on Manny and his parents as
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: she went through her pregnancy. On the surface, Manny's father
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: seems unaware that anything might be wrong with Brianna's daughter,
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: but officers are about to learn he may know far
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: more about the missing child than he realizes.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: So when when she had the baby, where were they
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: living there?
• 3:48
  Speaker 12: They had a baby me maybe no, maybe maybe a
• 3:52
  Speaker 12: week two weeks over there and they won't talk around.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: So right after they had to maybe they lived with
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: you for a little.
• 3:58
  Speaker 12: Bit and then they disappeared. They were going up what
• 4:05
  Speaker 12: they were staying. I respect, I knew were very bad.
• 4:10
  Speaker 7: Urt you.
• 4:11
  Speaker 11: Yeah, we are.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Through the language barrier, officers are able to piece together
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: more of the story. Manny's father goes on to explain
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: that his son served in the Marines and that he
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: believed many cared deeply for Brianna's daughter and took good
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: care of her. He also says that he tried to
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: help the couple, allowing them to stay with him, offering
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: support and showing sympathy for Brianna's situation after she became
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: estranged from her own family. However, he also admits the
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: couple were unstable. They would stay for a while then
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: disappear again. At the time, Manny's father believed he was
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: doing the right thing, helping a struggling couple get back
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: on their feet, but he has no idea that this
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: will become the biggest regret of his life. Before leaving
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: the place, officers also speak briefly with Manny's mother, who'd
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: have some concerning statements about the couple.
• 5:09
  Speaker 10: So Manuel and Brianna never lived there. When you were there,
• 5:15
  Speaker 10: come with the baby.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: Manny's mother would speak to officers in Spanish. She tells
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: them that every time she asked Brianna and Manny about
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: their daughter, the couple told her the child was with
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: a family member, but she leaves out several concerning details
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: about what was really going on in Manny's life, details
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: officers will soon uncover on their own. For now, police
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: leave the residents with more questions than answers. They still
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: don't know where Brianna and Manny are and they still
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: have no idea where their daughter might be. But just
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: as they prepare to leave, Manny's brother pulls up to
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: the house. Detectives quickly approached to speak with him, where
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: they'll get their first real lead on where Brianna's daughter
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: might be.
• 6:03
  Speaker 11: Your mom is a cool lady.
• 6:04
  Speaker 14: I completely forgot about.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Susan from the detective Johnston, man that's to meet you. Hey,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: so we're just we just talked to your mom.
• 6:11
  Speaker 15: Somebody's in trouble.
• 6:12
  Speaker 14: Yeah, no, but see, I have no idea why the
• 6:14
  Speaker 14: family contact you guys. I to her to call me
• 6:18
  Speaker 14: if she had any questions that I would give her
• 6:20
  Speaker 14: any information that I had. And I did that, called
• 6:22
  Speaker 14: it her family member, her aunt. Okay, I got the
• 6:26
  Speaker 14: messages right here.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: And have you talked to Brianna or Manuel and.
• 6:29
  Speaker 14: All or I talked to Brianna maybe a couple of
• 6:35
  Speaker 14: weeks ago.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Okay, have you seen her? Did she have her baby
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: with her?
• 6:40
  Speaker 14: I haven't not seen the baby since it's been a
• 6:42
  Speaker 14: couple of months on prob like three, maybe even work.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: I was one or two.
• 6:46
  Speaker 14: I was like, I haven't seen her in a while.
• 6:49
  Speaker 14: And the show Okay, chef told me that one of
• 6:51
  Speaker 14: her answers taking care of her.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: Though Many's brother reassures officers that the couple's child is
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: with one of Brionna's aunts, he admits he hasn't seen
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: her daughter in months and doesn't sound fully convinced by
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: Brianna's story. Following this, detectives begin contacting Brianna's family one
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: by one. Every one of her aunts tell the same thing.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: They do not have her daughter. One of Brianna's aunts, Ruby,
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: insists detectives come to speak with her in person because
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: she's seen and heard troubling details about Brianna and Manny's
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: relationship they need to look into. When detectives arrive to
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: speak with Ruby, they'll quickly realize there's more to the
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: story than a missing child.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Hello are you Ruby, Yes, Sir Detective Johnson. We spoke
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: on the phone.
• 7:38
  Speaker 16: Yes, yes, come on in, come in, Yes, thank you.
• 7:44
  Speaker 16: I know something's going on because when Brianna was pregnant,
• 7:48
  Speaker 16: she was here with me and she left. She I
• 7:51
  Speaker 16: raised brand since age six, and I spoke to her
• 7:54
  Speaker 16: brother earlier.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: I called him on my lunch break, but Brian and
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: used to pay what's going on?
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: I said, have you met your niece.
• 8:03
  Speaker 16: Have you seen her? He says, nope, I haven't because
• 8:07
  Speaker 16: when she had her baby that day, she called me
• 8:11
  Speaker 16: yeah and then yeah, I would ride away and he
• 8:14
  Speaker 16: kind of got mad and like, she's with right, yeah,
• 8:18
  Speaker 16: because I was taking yes, and he kind of got
• 8:22
  Speaker 16: mad and he whispered in her ear and he walked
• 8:25
  Speaker 16: out of the room, and I'm like, and I said,
• 8:28
  Speaker 16: he's mad.
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: I to Brianna become med.
• 8:30
  Speaker 17: Yeah, we have the pay attention to him.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: What the detective is hearing now isn't just concerning, it's
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: deeply unsettling. It's the first time the relationship between Brianna
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: and Mannie begins to sound volatile and potentially dangerous. Ruby
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: doesn't know it yet, but her intuition is spot on,
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: and in just a matter of days she will be
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: told the most horrific truth imaginable about her grand niece.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: For now, the detective leaves Ruby's home and heads back
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: to the station, knowing they need to move quickly and
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: locate Brianna and Manny. What Ruby shared was troubling, but
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: it's only the beginning, and far worse revelations are still
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: to come. Two days past, with no sign of the couple,
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: or their child. Then a call comes in from a
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: woman named Desiree, who identifies herself as Brianna's former roommates.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: She's heard about the missing child and has important information
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: about Brianna's boyfriend, Manny, details his own family never shared
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: with police.
• 9:33
  Speaker 8: The only reason that everything kind of worries me is
• 9:36
  Speaker 8: just she fell off and like she just don't talk.
• 9:38
  Speaker 13: To nobody, and this kind of life happened, you know,
• 9:41
  Speaker 13: do you know why kind of disassociated herself from other people.
• 9:46
  Speaker 8: Her and many were fighting so bad. He said he
• 9:48
  Speaker 8: didn't walk the baby. He has a son, and I'm
• 9:51
  Speaker 8: pretty sure that he had got that baby took it
• 9:53
  Speaker 8: away because he shout out of they and so he
• 9:55
  Speaker 8: doesn't have that kid anymore. The mom has a kid, Brianna.
• 9:58
  Speaker 8: She lived with my mom for two years. She live
• 10:00
  Speaker 8: with me for a year and a half. I've always
• 10:02
  Speaker 8: been like trying to help her out and stuff.
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: Well, when she's pregnant.
• 10:05
  Speaker 8: You know, he had said that he didn't want to
• 10:06
  Speaker 8: be with her, He didn't want the baby. He doesn't
• 10:08
  Speaker 8: want a kid. I play that word of his other kid.
• 10:10
  Speaker 8: So it kind of worries me on that part, you know.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: Needless to say, Desiree's call paints a disturbing picture of
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: the couple. If Manny already lost custody of his own
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: child due to abuse, then there's every possibility that Brianna's
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: big daughter may have suffered the same fate. Together, the
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: pair comes across as volatile, irresponsible, and deeply unfit, a
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: dynamic that only adds more urgency for the detectives to
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: locate them and find the missing child. The next day,
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: as detectives begin mapping out their next steps, they finally
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: receive a tip on the couple's whereabouts. Brianna and many
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: are staying at a trailer belonging to Manny's father. Officers
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: immediately drive to the address, hoping to finally speak with
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: the couple directly and get their side of the story.
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: Police department several minutes past with no answer, Then the
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: officer knocks again. When Breanna and Manny finally step out
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: of the trailer, it's clear they already know why the
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: police are here, and they have a story prepared.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: Hey, So, I'm Detective Johnson. By the way, Sorry, do
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: you guys know I am here trying to talk to you.
• 11:22
  Speaker 18: Guys speacause I heard I guess my family.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Be talking to his man, you know.
• 11:35
  Speaker 7: Paper.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: That's that's why I'm involved as a detective, you know
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: what I mean, just because stuff like that could pass
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: on to us.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: So where's your baby at right now?
• 11:46
  Speaker 7: She's a friend?
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Where is that?
• 11:49
  Speaker 11: What is?
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: And what is okay? Who is your friend?
• 11:55
  Speaker 7: And what is?
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: If you don't mind, I'm just gonna talk to you
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: guys individually real quick, and then I'm gonna talk to
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: both you quickly. So can you just hang out with
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: him for a minute and can I talk to you
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: over here? So obviously I don't I don't know your air,
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: personal life, I don't know anybody.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: I'm just trying to get it all figured out. And
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: that's because upset.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't talk to them.
• 12:18
  Speaker 7: I don't know what they're annoying, and they're all in
• 12:22
  Speaker 7: my life.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: And that's one reason why I because I used to
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: live with my aunt.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: She would come hill like like what like she would.
• 12:30
  Speaker 18: Always yell out on you and seeing her speaking, and
• 12:32
  Speaker 18: I don't know what I'm doing in business.
• 12:35
  Speaker 10: So I.
• 12:37
  Speaker 18: Don't like her an to do whatever she was its
• 12:40
  Speaker 18: very alone, and then looked for her over the years
• 12:43
  Speaker 18: and like all my business and one that's the only
• 12:46
  Speaker 18: reason why I blocked them is your friend.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, did you take your baby down there?
• 12:51
  Speaker 13: Yeah?
• 12:52
  Speaker 7: Play nut so she can take her because.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: I'm glad didn't want to speak.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: So how'd you guys into a shall win it happen?
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: That happens.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Ago.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Brianna's explanation sounds reasonable. Her family constantly interferes in her
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: life and she doesn't want to deal with them. She
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: even speaks negatively about her aunt Ruby, claiming she was
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: never supportive of her. Nothing about Brianna's story immediately raises alarms,
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: so to verify the details, the officer moves on to
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: speak with many separately to cross check what Brianna has
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: already said. This is when a small discrepancy surfaces, one
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: that will mark the beginning of the couple's story falling apart.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Hey, man, so can you kind of just giving me
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: a rundown on everything going on?
• 13:39
  Speaker 17: All right?
• 13:39
  Speaker 19: So, as far as I know, like her family's been
• 13:41
  Speaker 19: trying to get up rid of her because I guess
• 13:43
  Speaker 19: they haven't been in touch on how she's doing and
• 13:46
  Speaker 19: the baby's doing. And she spoke to a couple family
• 13:50
  Speaker 19: members I think it was, and her brother or some show,
• 13:53
  Speaker 19: I said, because they mess her and she told him
• 13:55
  Speaker 19: to like yeah, I'm like we're doing okay, like you
• 13:58
  Speaker 19: guys don't got to worry about nothing. And then they're
• 14:00
  Speaker 19: like okay, well just in order to make sure it
• 14:02
  Speaker 19: was okay, and then after that then they started okay.
• 14:06
  Speaker 20: My mom told me she's like, well, hey, there's detectives
• 14:09
  Speaker 20: here in my house, like trying to figure out because
• 14:11
  Speaker 20: you guys are missing or some you guys haven't like
• 14:13
  Speaker 20: talked to the family or like be like what the fuck?
• 14:16
  Speaker 20: Like she's talked to her answer someone, she's stuck a
• 14:18
  Speaker 20: couple of family members and let him know like everything
• 14:21
  Speaker 20: was okay, and like they're still doing this ship.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: So yeah, So the babies and waters, when did that happen?
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Roughly the day he or the month the beginning of
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: the year, like a long where in February do they
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: give you an address? Or like how are you guys
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: supposed to get in contact or what's the plan? Is
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: she going to go back for a baby at some point?
• 14:47
  Speaker 19: So as far as that years, like once we got
• 14:48
  Speaker 19: good and ship, we were gonna be I guess she
• 14:50
  Speaker 19: was gonna be hitting us out back then that's right,
• 14:53
  Speaker 19: that's all but all I know.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: So not only does Many give a completely different time
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: frame for when Brianna's daughter was given a but he
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: also can't provide any basic details for the supposed friend
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: the child was given to. When the officer circles back
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: to Brianna with the same question, she can't answer it
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: either and offers no way to verify that this friend
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: even exists. At this point, the officer's suspicion grows, and
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: with the inconsistencies piling up, he makes the call to
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: detain the couple and bring them to the station for
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: further questioning. Once at the station, Brianna and Many are
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: placed into separate interview rooms. They still don't know, their
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: stories don't match, and investigators intend to keep it that way.
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: This is the police's only chance to finally figure out
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: what really happened to Brianna's daughter and who's responsible. As
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: for the couple, one wrong answer could expose the horrifying
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: secret they've been hiding for months.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: And so, how did you get in contact with Marianne?
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: What's happening? When did this happen?
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Two minutes?
• 16:02
  Speaker 6: Two months ago?
• 16:02
  Speaker 10: Now?
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Okay, do you remember the day you don't remember.
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: Do you have the messages on what's up from Maria?
• 16:09
  Speaker 7: Be fun? Why I can't remember either. It's like all
• 16:14
  Speaker 7: kinds of you know, what's happened there? One one something yeah,
• 16:17
  Speaker 7: I don't I.
• 16:18
  Speaker 19: Know you get contact with the check one she told
• 16:20
  Speaker 19: me she was gonna get up Facebook like me, want
• 16:24
  Speaker 19: to talk to me?
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: Or I acually did I though she took you ever
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: talked to or you ever said you didn't talked to me?
• 16:31
  Speaker 11: Some stuff?
• 16:32
  Speaker 15: As so, how do we just make trick colonies?
• 16:35
  Speaker 17: Okay?
• 16:35
  Speaker 15: Man because Brienna doesn't seem to know how how we
• 16:38
  Speaker 15: can just ensure that Columbia say, if you think about it,
• 16:42
  Speaker 15: that's kind of disturbing a little bit, but a mother
• 16:45
  Speaker 15: maybe not a little bit more concerned about, you know,
• 16:47
  Speaker 15: just helping us.
• 16:48
  Speaker 17: Insure that the child to say.
• 16:49
  Speaker 21: As far as I know, I know sometimes she has
• 16:51
  Speaker 21: pass with their phone and she like.
• 16:54
  Speaker 14: Kind of has a right kind of get paid.
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: So maybe she applies into your phone bill.
• 16:58
  Speaker 8: Is there anything I can say?
• 17:00
  Speaker 15: Just wait for.
• 17:02
  Speaker 17: And contents.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: As expected, Brianna and Manny stick to their conflicting story,
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: But more importantly is that neither of them show any
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: concern for their daughter's well being despite not seeing or
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: hearing anything from the supposed friend for weeks. What the
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: couple doesn't know yet is that detectives have already followed
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: up on the supposed friend Brianna mentioned and discovered that
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: no such person exists. By now, it's painfully obvious to
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: investigators that both Brianna and Manny are lying, so detectives
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: decide it's time to lay out what they believe really
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: happened to Brianna's big daughter and confront her directly.
• 17:43
  Speaker 17: Marian, we need you this be truthful with this.
• 17:45
  Speaker 15: A lot of the stuff he said, is this not
• 17:47
  Speaker 15: making any sense? And it's kind of hard to wrap
• 17:49
  Speaker 15: our minds around the kind of the lack of concern
• 17:54
  Speaker 15: you're showing.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, we just need the truth.
• 17:56
  Speaker 22: We need to make sure Claudie's okay.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: I mean we get it.
• 17:59
  Speaker 17: Step happens.
• 18:00
  Speaker 23: You know people that through hard times, we understand that.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: Something happened, something that you don't, whether or not co
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: or not, something happened after this happened.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: If you guys discuss this, I become up sory talking
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: about a.
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: Person we are nothing about.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: No croup that Marie did.
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: Happen your stake happened?
• 18:27
  Speaker 11: What you do right now?
• 18:29
  Speaker 24: What matters?
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: D right?
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Brianna finally breaks and confesses to killing her daughter. After
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: this admission, she becomes visibly emotional, and for several minutes
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: the detectives are unable to get clear answers from her.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: As they slowly piece together her statements, a story begins
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: to form. Brianna claims she fell asleep on her daughter
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: while they were in the car, accidentally suffocating her. Panicked,
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: she and Manny buried her daughter's body in a remote
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: wooded area where it has remained for nearly a year.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: After the confession, detectives decide to give Brianna a few
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: minutes alone to collect herself and to reconsider the story
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: she's choosing to tell, because even now she's taking full
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: responsibility and insisting Manny had no part in what happened.
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: When detectives returned to the room, they know what they
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: need to do next. Convinced Brianna to be honest about
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: Manny's role and where her daughter's body is buried.
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: Brianna, how are you, I'm sergeant, your honor?
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Do it okay?
• 19:43
  Speaker 25: Myriads were getting anything we need water or anything, so
• 19:52
  Speaker 25: we kind of didn't understanding of what's going on.
• 19:55
  Speaker 24: Okay, you're got any kind of trouble right now? We
• 19:59
  Speaker 24: want to do what we can to help you, okay,
• 20:03
  Speaker 24: with I guess you being willing to help us as well? Okay,
• 20:08
  Speaker 24: would you be willing to drive up to Queen's right now?
• 20:10
  Speaker 24: All kind of shows where we need to go. You're
• 20:15
  Speaker 24: going to go with us? Yeah, and you're okay born
• 20:18
  Speaker 24: with us?
• 20:20
  Speaker 26: Yeah?
• 20:21
  Speaker 17: How'd you get here?
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: Manuel?
• 20:24
  Speaker 16: Can?
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: Would you be comfortable with Manual Born?
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: After agreeing to help detectives, Brianna seems to regain her composure,
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: speaking calmly and answering questions as if the weight of
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: her confession has already lifted. In the next room, Manny
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: has no idea his girlfriend just confessed and took all
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: the blame, but he's about to find out as detectives
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: prepare to drive both of them to the one place
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: they never wanted anyone to find you?
• 20:55
  Speaker 6: Ready, Okay, sorry this is.
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: As they prepare to leave, Brianna and Many are reunited,
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: and it's clear Manny immediately realizes she's told officers the truth.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: The couple and officers then drive out and hiked deep
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: into the woods to recover the body, a grim walk
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: that will lead to what can only be described as
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: a nightmare.
• 21:45
  Speaker 11: Go ahead, but we're gonna get you got it.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: They're gonna hear where the rocks at?
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: Where the rock kiss?
• 22:11
  Speaker 11: I'm sorry, do you pret rockets anything?
• 22:15
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: Right there?
• 22:17
  Speaker 7: Yeah, she's there, that.
• 22:18
  Speaker 27: One just sticking out there like a big ol'd thim boom.
• 22:23
  Speaker 17: With all those she's underneath the rock. Yeah, she's those rocks.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Here.
• 22:32
  Speaker 17: Welcome back.
• 22:32
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I marked it.
• 22:36
  Speaker 28: Okay, So I don't want to keep you guys out
• 22:40
  Speaker 28: of loop just because you guys came down here showed
• 22:43
  Speaker 28: us all this.
• 22:44
  Speaker 17: But we're gonna do stuff the way we do handle it.
• 22:47
  Speaker 17: And so what we're.
• 22:49
  Speaker 12: Gonna do is we gotta get a search for and
• 22:51
  Speaker 12: of course, but we're gonna bring out our other resources.
• 22:54
  Speaker 22: And we're gonna do this the right way.
• 22:55
  Speaker 17: Okay, we're gonna hold up.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: We're gonna secure this a couple of bit this apt
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: so we get a hold of you guys.
• 23:01
  Speaker 17: Well, we got to give them, we got to take
• 23:03
  Speaker 17: them back home.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right. Yeah, sorry, I forgot about that.
• 23:07
  Speaker 9: So it's not like we're just coming marketing and then
• 23:09
  Speaker 9: leaving so like swat to know that that's not what
• 23:12
  Speaker 9: we're doing.
• 23:12
  Speaker 17: So it's going to be a long process.
• 23:15
  Speaker 28: Okay, you're one hundred percent certain that's the spot though, Yes, okayama, guys.
• 23:22
  Speaker 22: I think we're good.
• 23:23
  Speaker 17: Now we've been marketing along the way.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: By now, officers believe they've found the burial site, but
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: because it's already dark, they halt the search until the
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: following day, before Breonna and many are allowed to leave,
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: detectives instruct them to return at noon. For now, the
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: pair isn't being detained and are treated as two people
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: who may simply be caught in a tragic situation, at
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: least based on what they're admitting, a far cry from
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: the real truth behind their lies, a horrific truth that
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: police are just hours away from discovering. The next morning,
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: Brianna meets detectives near the search site, but strangely, Manny
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: doesn't join her. Instead, he waits inside a detective's car,
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: refusing to return to the burial location. Brianna then leads
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: investigators back to the wooded area, with forensic experts following behind.
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: She's about to give them the confirmation they've been searching for,
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: even though the couple responsible will eventually still walk free.
• 24:32
  Speaker 17: Yeah, but that was over there.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: That was over there. Okay, You're like.
• 24:51
  Speaker 26: Okay, do you wanna hang out in the shade here?
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: Tragically, this discovery confirms detective's worst fears, But as investigators
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: examine the remains, something stands out. Although the body has
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: decayed significantly, it still shows signs of possible injuries. Suddenly,
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: Brianna's claims of an accidental suffocation no longer seem as
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: straightforward as she described, and detectives now need to get
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: to the bottom of what really happened. So, while forensics
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: continue their work, a detective speaks with Manny, hoping to
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: determine whether Brianna is telling the truth or if she's
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: just protecting him. What Manny says next makes one thing
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: unmistakably clear. He has no intention of taking responsibility.
• 25:54
  Speaker 17: I mean, you get it.
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: That's a baby passed away from you and for you
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: to buried. Yeah here, why why would you.
• 26:04
  Speaker 17: Try to hide that factor? You remember?
• 26:08
  Speaker 27: I think I remember the baby was being really fusty
• 26:11
  Speaker 27: and Fan was like, you know what, that's just still
• 26:16
  Speaker 27: outside of it was like, so we went outside and
• 26:18
  Speaker 27: we tried, like maybe going to the car and then
• 26:21
  Speaker 27: turning it around and maybe like with the help of
• 26:23
  Speaker 27: the car being turned on a oboration, probably help speak
• 26:28
  Speaker 27: see if I can.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: I can understand that.
• 26:30
  Speaker 29: For as much as you want closure in this, you
• 26:33
  Speaker 29: don't think that that I want closure.
• 26:35
  Speaker 17: I have my own babies.
• 26:36
  Speaker 29: But the only way that I can get that closure, man,
• 26:39
  Speaker 29: is if you guys just help us, like just and
• 26:43
  Speaker 29: by helping us, I mean just just be honest with us.
• 26:47
  Speaker 29: Was the baby did you was the baby in the backpack?
• 26:50
  Speaker 17: Did you put the baby in in something? Just gud picks.
• 26:56
  Speaker 17: That's where you rough showed us. That's where you remembered
• 27:02
  Speaker 17: the best of your knowledge as well.
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: Despite the detective's efforts to get any reaction out of him,
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: Many remains completely emotionless, taking no responsibility, and insists it
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: was nothing more than an accident caused by Brianna. With
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: Brianna already taking all the blame, detectives have no choice
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: but to accept their statements for now, and the interview
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: with Manny is wrapped up. Back at the burial site,
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: forensics finish documenting the scene and the remains are sent
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: for autopsy. At this point, officers could arrest the couple
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: for tampering with evidence. They already admitted to burying the body,
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: but detectives make a different decision and let the couple
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: walk free. On the surface, it seems like a strange choice,
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: but in reality it's a calculated move that will become
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: crucial later on. With that decision, the scene is cleared
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: and the day is wrapped up. Back at the station,
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: investigators regroup to discuss their plan. They agree that letting
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: the couple go, at least temporarily, is what's best for
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: the investigation. There is no autopsy yet, no confirmed cause
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: of death, and no clear way to prove who is responsible.
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: If Brianna and Manny were arrested immediately, they would almost
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: certainly lawyer up, and detectives would lose the only chance
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: to confront them once the medical evidence comes back. By waiting,
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: investigators gain a strategic advantage, the opportunity to secure a
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: confession when the autopsy reveals the truth. But their plan
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: comes with major risk. The couple is now completely free
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: to disappear, and what detectives don't know yet is that
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: Manny has family in Mexico. Over the following week, investigators
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: wait for the autopsy results, and begin searching for anything
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: that could help strengthen their case. They're certain Brianna hasn't
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: told the full truth, and with Manny's history of abuse
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: involving his previous child and wife, there is every reason
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: to suspect foul play in their daughter's death. So to
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: gain more insight into the couple, actives arranged to meet
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: Breonna's aunt, Ruby at her workplace. At this point, Ruby
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: has no idea that her grand niece is long gone,
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: and once detective to break the tragic news to her,
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: she will make it clear just how big of a
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: mistake it was to let the couple walk free.
• 29:17
  Speaker 17: If it's okay, Is it okay? If I ask you
• 29:20
  Speaker 17: some questions before we get started? Okay? So how did
• 29:22
  Speaker 17: this all come about?
• 29:24
  Speaker 5: I've I was six years old. I've had her.
• 29:27
  Speaker 16: She lived with me at age twenty three. She lived
• 29:30
  Speaker 16: in and out. You know, once they turn eighteen, they
• 29:32
  Speaker 16: know it all. She got pregnant from some guy out
• 29:37
  Speaker 16: of Texas. She was excited to be on all but
• 29:40
  Speaker 16: when she met this guy she's with now, she messaged
• 29:44
  Speaker 16: THEE I have my baby.
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: I rushed to the hospital. Where was that here?
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: There?
• 29:51
  Speaker 16: Yes, sir, I took baby pictures with the baby, and
• 29:54
  Speaker 16: he got upset. Before he walked out that room, he
• 29:57
  Speaker 16: whispered something in her ear and I looked at him.
• 30:00
  Speaker 16: I said, is he is he mad?
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: She says, yes, he's mad. I said, well, I don't
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: care if he gets mad.
• 30:06
  Speaker 16: I want to take pictures of the baby, me and
• 30:09
  Speaker 16: the baby. Her brothers was sending her money every Fridays
• 30:13
  Speaker 16: to help her out with the baby. He would ask her,
• 30:16
  Speaker 16: where's my baby niece. I want to meet my baby niece.
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: There's no baby. Her brother Brian.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: I spoke to him last night.
• 30:23
  Speaker 5: He goes, I haven't heard nothing the od.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: Or her brother and never called her. They argued, and
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: he told her.
• 30:30
  Speaker 16: Hey, I'm not going to be sending you any more
• 30:32
  Speaker 16: money if you don't bring me my baby niece to
• 30:34
  Speaker 16: meet her.
• 30:34
  Speaker 5: I don't even know her.
• 30:36
  Speaker 16: Every time they'd go, he said, she'd get the money
• 30:38
  Speaker 16: and go, and there's no baby. If she says she
• 30:41
  Speaker 16: left it with an aunt, we're the only aunts, me
• 30:44
  Speaker 16: one from rows one the other two baby even capable
• 30:47
  Speaker 16: of taking care.
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: Of a kid.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: Ruby would continue describing more concerning behavior from the couple,
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: especially Manny's anger and hostility around Breonna's daughter, But as
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: she talks, she begins to sense that the detective sitting
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: acros us from her may already know far more about
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: her grandniece's condition than she does.
• 31:05
  Speaker 16: Is there a baby, did they take him in for questioning?
• 31:08
  Speaker 16: Are they in the loose or they're a baby?
• 31:13
  Speaker 10: So the baby there.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: Was, but they all found her.
• 31:28
  Speaker 30: I know, but we still have I know, And it's
• 31:32
  Speaker 30: this part of the dual system that we have.
• 31:36
  Speaker 31: They should be locked up, they should be lost taking
• 31:41
  Speaker 31: her to her doctor visits or anything.
• 31:45
  Speaker 17: So it's still under investigation. Movie. There's still a lot
• 31:48
  Speaker 17: of questions we have.
• 31:49
  Speaker 30: Okay, well what do they say again if we haven't
• 31:54
  Speaker 30: really spoke to them.
• 31:55
  Speaker 17: Okay, they're going to be gone.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: If you go find them, they're going to be gone.
• 32:00
  Speaker 16: He's had family in Mexico, he has family as lungs
• 32:04
  Speaker 16: from Mexico.
• 32:05
  Speaker 5: They have family and bodies.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: Through her grief, she warns them about something they hadn't
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: fully considered. The couple could already be on the run,
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: especially with Manny's connections in Mexico. Additionally, her description of
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: Brianna as a follower only reinforces what investigators heard before.
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: It's starting to make sense to detectives why Brianna would
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: take the blame, even if many played a bigger role
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: in what happened. By now, though Ruby is devastated knowing
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: she will never see her grand niece again, her reaction
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: is far more emotional than anything detectives have seen from Brianna.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: But sadly, the tragic news doesn't stop there, because Ruby
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: is about to hear the most disturbing part about her
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: grandniece's death.
• 32:52
  Speaker 5: They killed her. He's killed her.
• 32:54
  Speaker 11: I know he did.
• 32:56
  Speaker 17: I could have had that baby, I could have raised her.
• 33:00
  Speaker 17: Know who the dad is?
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: We don't know him.
• 33:02
  Speaker 17: Nobody knows.
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: Nobody knows who he is.
• 33:05
  Speaker 17: The baby has been sent up to Albuque for an autopsy.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: How many months?
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: So you're before she turned one? O?
• 33:15
  Speaker 32: God, I don't know how old, but I'm guessing a
• 33:19
  Speaker 32: month to two months.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: When she passed away?
• 33:25
  Speaker 5: Thank god?
• 33:26
  Speaker 6: So she.
• 33:31
  Speaker 17: Going off the information that I was told.
• 33:35
  Speaker 16: Yeah, I bet you stopped breathing because all they all
• 33:38
  Speaker 16: he did was when I got to that car and smelt.
• 33:41
  Speaker 5: Like bad back like we I bet that you couldn't
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: even breathe. Why are they still out of living?
• 33:50
  Speaker 33: Well?
• 33:51
  Speaker 17: You know it takes about six months.
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: God, they'll be gone. They'll be gone.
• 34:00
  Speaker 17: That's why we don't want them. We don't want to
• 34:02
  Speaker 17: split them one and.
• 34:03
  Speaker 10: They'd already want the minute.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: You already discovered that.
• 34:06
  Speaker 17: It's why they are.
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: They're gone.
• 34:09
  Speaker 30: I know they're corn.
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: Ruby is justifiably furious. She wants justice, even if it
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: means putting her own niece behind bars. But without an autopsy,
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: detectives still don't have definitive proof of how Brehanna's daughter
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: died or who is responsible. Making an arrest now could
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: jeopardize the case. With that uncertainty hanging over the investigation,
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: detectives wrap up the interview with Ruby. At this point,
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: they still believe waiting is a safer option, but that
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: decision comes with a dangerous consequence. It gives the couple
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: exactly what they need, time to run, disappear, and make
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: sure they're never found. Over two months later, the autopsy
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: results finally come in, and the findings are more disturbing
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: than anyone imagined. The report reveals multiple injuries in the
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: child's system. Most importantly, the manner of death is ruled
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: a homicide. For the first time, detectives have confirmation that
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: foul play was involved. Now they need to figure out
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: which one of them is responsible, and, more importantly, where
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: they are. Detectives are quickly sent out to search for
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: the couple, but they're nowhere to be found. Days turn
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: into weeks, and every possible address comes up empty. It
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: begins to look like Ruby was ride all along. The
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: couple may have disappeared for good and gotten away with
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: the murder of her grand niece. Eight full weeks pass
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: and still no sign of Brianna or Manny. Then in February,
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: detectives receive a tip that the couple has returned and
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: is quietly staying at Manny's father's trailer at a nearby park.
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: It's the first real lead since the autopsy. Officers are dispatched,
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: but they're told to keep the encounter calm and convince
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: the couple to come involuntarily. The goal is to extract
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: a confession, not spook them into running again. Minutes later,
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: they arrived at the trailer park, hoping this time the
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: pair won't slip away.
• 36:23
  Speaker 31: There in there, Hie, are you good? How are you good?
• 36:37
  Speaker 11: Good?
• 36:38
  Speaker 13: Here your kiddo's home?
• 36:42
  Speaker 31: Oh okay, hi, nice.
• 36:44
  Speaker 11: To see you again.
• 36:47
  Speaker 13: If you don't mind, sir, Can you just call Brienna
• 36:51
  Speaker 13: out just right now if you wouldn't mind.
• 36:59
  Speaker 31: I'm as Briannah.
• 37:04
  Speaker 13: Some things have come up and I wouldn't I would
• 37:07
  Speaker 13: want to know if you'd like the chance or the
• 37:09
  Speaker 13: opportunity to speak with us on it. Okay, would you
• 37:14
  Speaker 13: mind going to our station just down and have a
• 37:17
  Speaker 13: conversation where it's a little more.
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you'll go. Okay, you just want to.
• 37:29
  Speaker 28: Yeah, we'll give you a ride and then we'll bring
• 37:30
  Speaker 28: you right now.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: You don't have any knives or anything on you?
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 37:34
  Speaker 13: Do you mind if I just password you just really quick,
• 37:36
  Speaker 13: just make sure you don't have anything on you.
• 37:37
  Speaker 31: No, you're good, okay.
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: Brianna doesn't ask a single question and simply steps into
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: the back of the cruiser, a strangely calm reaction considering
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: she's been out of sight for months. But things are
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: about to get even stranger once officers call many to
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: come out.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: Time one more time, one more time.
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: Okay, do you mind coming and talking with that?
• 38:03
  Speaker 17: Okay?
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: Cool, we're right.
• 38:07
  Speaker 30: Yeah, just as a precaution, that's going to patch you
• 38:11
  Speaker 30: down to make sure you don't have it.
• 38:12
  Speaker 11: Okay, good, all right?
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it, Okay, thank you.
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: With that, Manny's reaction is just as baffling as Brianna's.
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: He also agrees to come along without asking a single question,
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: an odd level of cooperation for a couple who's avoided
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: police for nearly two months. The pair is quickly transported
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: to the station. Upon arrival, they're separated immediately. The detective,
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: Amanda Keller, leads both interrogations. Investigators need to determine which
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: one of the two is responsible, or whether they both
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: played a role. If they can't sort that out, prosecutors
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: may never be able to prove who actually killed the child,
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: and both Brianna and Manny could walk away without a
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: single order charge. For the killer couple, everything is on
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: the line as well. If one of them slips up,
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: they risk a life sentence, But if they both stick
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: to the same story, there's a chance they get nothing
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: more than tampering charges or even walk out completely free
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: for the second time.
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: Ranmos, Rihanna, did you get some water? Oh but it's
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: been a while, so yeah, my name's Amanda Keller. This
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: is Edward Ronda. So we're here today to.
• 39:33
  Speaker 13: Like we said out there, basically, this investigation is coming
• 39:35
  Speaker 13: to an end, and we just had additional questions for you.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: How did that night start off?
• 39:42
  Speaker 18: Well, okay, I was tired, and whenever after I gave
• 39:47
  Speaker 18: birth and all that, I got depressions, so I would
• 39:49
  Speaker 18: take those and that when that time happened, I took that,
• 39:54
  Speaker 18: and I took a so whenever that happened, okay, because
• 40:00
  Speaker 18: a whole car thing.
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: I know, I said that, but the actually the.
• 40:04
  Speaker 18: Actual thing was I you were in the bed and
• 40:08
  Speaker 18: I slipt over.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: Now, so you woke up, baby was cold, You started
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: doing CPR. What about Manny? What is nanny doing?
• 40:16
  Speaker 10: Yeah?
• 40:16
  Speaker 7: I mean I tried to ress it, but then he
• 40:20
  Speaker 7: friked out, like like, oh, she was.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: Having great And then what did you decide to do?
• 40:25
  Speaker 5: I just.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: Put a plastic bag and everything and.
• 40:33
  Speaker 13: Said, you know, I guess I'm just confused as to
• 40:36
  Speaker 13: why y'all would say that you were living in the
• 40:37
  Speaker 13: vehicle and.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: I were just staying like just I don't know.
• 40:42
  Speaker 5: I don't know why I said that.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: I was just freaked out.
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: Forts Brianna still clings to the claim that her daughter's
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: death was accidental, and through it all, she continues defending Manny,
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: insisting he had nothing to do with it. What Brianna
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: doesn't know is that police already have an AUNTS that
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: directly contradicts her explanation of what happened that night, and
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: the detective is about to use it to completely dismantle
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: her story.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: So she did test positive for do you know why
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: that would be?
• 41:16
  Speaker 8: I'm not sure?
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: Okay, do you use? Does man use? Has he used?
• 41:25
  Speaker 7: He hasn't used it whenever he got together or anything that.
• 41:28
  Speaker 31: I know them.
• 41:29
  Speaker 5: Okay, we're just trying to figure out.
• 41:33
  Speaker 32: Why are these lab results telling us this? We know,
• 41:38
  Speaker 32: you know, did he use often? It's a very addicting
• 41:46
  Speaker 32: it is. Does he still use?
• 41:51
  Speaker 30: No?
• 41:52
  Speaker 17: Well, that's good.
• 41:55
  Speaker 7: He changed to me, you know, not what no with girl?
• 42:01
  Speaker 17: Yeah, that's great.
• 42:04
  Speaker 28: How long did he use for? You don't know, he's
• 42:11
  Speaker 28: like some months that some years.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: Brianna's hesitation to admit Manny's drug use only confirms what
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: detectives already suspect. She's hiding the truth, and she seems
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: far more focused on protecting Manny than revealing what happened
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: to her own daughter. But Brianna's denials are about to end,
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: because detectives still have more gruesome details from the autopsy
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: things only a truly evil parent could do.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: So when we review the autopsy, there were also some
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: injuries to her phones, and one was before.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: She had passed.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: Do you know why she would have injuries to her
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: to or to her leg?
• 43:05
  Speaker 7: Hm?
• 43:07
  Speaker 13: Did you ever leave her with anybody? So was primarily
• 43:13
  Speaker 13: either you or manning around her at all times?
• 43:17
  Speaker 17: Did you really fall asleep on Klan? Yeah, that's what
• 43:21
  Speaker 17: killed her.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: Were you guys arguing and he may have taken it
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: out on Kilanie or was she upset?
• 43:37
  Speaker 7: I just feel like you don't like crying all him?
• 43:42
  Speaker 17: This was just one time all the time. But when
• 43:49
  Speaker 17: you hurt her? Was this just one time or was
• 43:51
  Speaker 17: this all the time?
• 43:55
  Speaker 5: You never like ever just that time?
• 43:57
  Speaker 17: So I just lost to school, it seems.
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not that.
• 44:02
  Speaker 7: I just feel like when he went to the military,
• 44:05
  Speaker 7: feel like it changed.
• 44:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 44:06
  Speaker 13: Absolutely, Yeah, that gonna happen, and if you don't get
• 44:10
  Speaker 13: help for it, it just kind of back.
• 44:12
  Speaker 5: So I was like that once too.
• 44:14
  Speaker 18: Then I got out because I was always trying to
• 44:17
  Speaker 18: kill Yeah.
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: For the first time, Brianna isn't blaming herself. She's hinting
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: that Manny may have played a role in the child's death.
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: It is at this point detectives decide to pause the
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: interrogation and give her a short break, worried that she
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: might shut down completely if they push any harder. But
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: when they return to the room, something has changed. Brianna
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: can't hide the truth any longer. She's about to break
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: and finally reveal what happened to her daughter that fateful night.
• 44:49
  Speaker 30: Do you really think he's going to be honest or
• 44:51
  Speaker 30: do you think he's going to put it.
• 44:53
  Speaker 18: On you feel like you didn't.
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: You tell me?
• 45:02
  Speaker 17: Why is that fuse?
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: That shouldn't be fine?
• 45:06
  Speaker 5: You think that's right?
• 45:09
  Speaker 13: Why did you say earlier if you felt like if
• 45:11
  Speaker 13: you had met somebody else.
• 45:13
  Speaker 20: That.
• 45:18
  Speaker 7: Because none of this happen.
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: Why is that?
• 45:25
  Speaker 18: I just feel like he's different, like ever since you
• 45:29
  Speaker 18: went to the military.
• 45:32
  Speaker 5: It's okay, it's not your fault. It's not your fault.
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: It's not your fault.
• 45:40
  Speaker 30: I have.
• 45:42
  Speaker 11: Do what you know.
• 45:43
  Speaker 17: I get it.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: You don't have to.
• 45:49
  Speaker 15: You know that, right.
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: You don't have to go back there.
• 45:54
  Speaker 5: You don't feel track, You don't have to go back there.
• 46:03
  Speaker 5: Why do you bind yourself? Yeah, because I have to.
• 46:09
  Speaker 33: You can find something for you to go you know
• 46:15
  Speaker 33: your family loves you. I know that you find they
• 46:20
  Speaker 33: do they do. Even still, they still take up for you,
• 46:23
  Speaker 33: they still ask about you if we've heard from you.
• 46:27
  Speaker 33: They love you, they do regardless of what's happened.
• 46:32
  Speaker 7: All my life I've lived here.
• 46:37
  Speaker 5: Should get it, y'all know this is the first steps. Yeah,
• 46:44
  Speaker 5: this is this is this.
• 46:46
  Speaker 17: Is ship.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: But it's okay. But you're doing it now. That's the point.
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: You're doing it now.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: Late, but it's not too late, right, It's not too late.
• 47:07
  Speaker 5: Do you feel safe, Brion? Is what we're getting at.
• 47:10
  Speaker 17: Do you want our help?
• 47:14
  Speaker 5: Do you want us to give you a little bit
• 47:15
  Speaker 5: of time to think?
• 47:16
  Speaker 17: Real quick?
• 47:17
  Speaker 5: I'll find you a cooke, try to find you something.
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: Weeel safe.
• 47:22
  Speaker 7: I just like I say, he's good.
• 47:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: Brianna's lies are unraveling before her eyes. She says the
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: military changed Manny, insisting that if it weren't for him,
• 47:38
  Speaker 3: her daughter would still be alive. As she breaks down,
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: even the detectives grow emotional with Brianna's side of the
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: story now revealed. Detectives wrap up the interview and move
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: her into another room, ready to question the person they
• 47:51
  Speaker 3: believe is the real killer. This time, their strategy is different.
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: They plan to confront him with evidence almost immediately and
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: see whether his version of events aligns with Brianna's. But
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: after avoiding consequences for more than a year, Manny still
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: believes he can talk his way out of trouble. And
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: the worst part is he might be right on the.
• 48:13
  Speaker 17: Head bulls in there.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: Everyone you will, what kind of medication did you take
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: that night?
• 48:20
  Speaker 17: I didn't take medication?
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: So what does that normally do to you? How does
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: that affect your body?
• 48:27
  Speaker 17: Knocks me up?
• 48:29
  Speaker 11: It does what?
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, It knocks me up, knocks you out, like,
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: just makes you tired.
• 48:35
  Speaker 13: Okay, okay, So even in that time, right, she can't
• 48:37
  Speaker 13: hold her head up right. She can't crawl, so she's
• 48:41
  Speaker 13: very dependent on somebody right to hold her to move
• 48:45
  Speaker 13: her right. She can't just put something in her mouth
• 48:48
  Speaker 13: or however, okay, so how would she have consers? So
• 48:53
  Speaker 13: who else could have been around her and smoked it
• 48:57
  Speaker 13: or somehow? Goodness, Okay, that doesn't make sense to me.
• 49:02
  Speaker 13: Do you see how we're kind of if you're yeah,
• 49:07
  Speaker 13: how did the baby get hold of it?
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: That's what I understand.
• 49:10
  Speaker 3: Either Manny's admission to taking the drugs only further confirms
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: detective suspicions. At this point, he is their primary focus,
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: and investigators believe he's the one responsible for their daughter's death,
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: so they stop circling around the topic and decide to
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: fully accuse Manny of murder to see if they can
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: break his story and elicita confession.
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: This is your knee essentially right and right here?
• 49:39
  Speaker 11: Do you see that?
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: It's more of a this isn't like an actual This
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: is more of like.
• 49:43
  Speaker 13: A yeah, like here's right and then it's.
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: Right here on the corner. Do you know why she
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: would have had injury right there?
• 49:58
  Speaker 22: The only the only I think that I would know,
• 50:01
  Speaker 22: The only thing that worded me was her probably being
• 50:05
  Speaker 22: because whenever we did do the CPR, that's what the
• 50:08
  Speaker 22: only cause the injuries that I would know, like every.
• 50:11
  Speaker 30: Yanked your leg or nothing like that.
• 50:16
  Speaker 17: Man, I'm gonna be honest with you. We know.
• 50:21
  Speaker 5: We know what happened. Like the facts don't lie on
• 50:23
  Speaker 5: the autopsy report.
• 50:24
  Speaker 30: Okay, we know that the injuries occurred before death, all right,
• 50:31
  Speaker 30: so that CPR doesn't play in fact.
• 50:34
  Speaker 17: Okay, so the.
• 50:35
  Speaker 30: Medical examiners have a way of proving injuries before death
• 50:39
  Speaker 30: because the bone will actually start to try to heal
• 50:42
  Speaker 30: almost immediately. Does that make sense? You're still getting blood
• 50:45
  Speaker 30: flow and all that kind of stuff. I don't know
• 50:47
  Speaker 30: the science behind it, but based off what happened, injuries
• 50:52
  Speaker 30: were prior to death, meaning she was still alive when
• 50:54
  Speaker 30: the injuries occurred, all injuries.
• 50:59
  Speaker 17: Does that make sense?
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: As detectives continue laying out the evidence against him, Manny
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: sits stone faced. This is the moment where everything hangs
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: in the balance. With all cards on the table and
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: murder accusations in front of him, many could shut down
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: the entire interrogation, ask for a lawyer, and refuse to
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: answer another question. What happens next will determine not only
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: his fate, but Brianna's as well.
• 51:26
  Speaker 17: Just tells her I already.
• 51:28
