Latest / Why Humans Lie / He Called Him By Name - The Cake, The Silence, The Trap
Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: At eight forty seven.
- 0:05Speaker 2: On the morning of nine eleven, two thoy nineteen, a
- 0:08Speaker 2: utility lineman climbed an electrical pole on the eastern edge
- 0:12Speaker 2: of Farrow Township, Pennsylvania. Through a gap in the Arberdyte hedge. Below,
- 0:17Speaker 2: he saw a folding table in a backyard. On it
- 0:20Speaker 2: sat a white cake, a single plate, a plastic fork,
- 0:24Speaker 2: and an open champagne bottle. The foam had already settled,
- 0:28Speaker 2: the tablecloth was soaked through with morning dew. Nobody was
- 0:31Speaker 2: there Inside the house. A bowl of cereals sat half eaten,
- 0:36Speaker 2: spoon balanced.
- 0:37Speaker 1: On the rim.
- 0:38Speaker 2: A glass of orange juice stood untouched and warm. A
- 0:41Speaker 2: silver compact car idled in the driveway, driver's window open.
- 0:46Speaker 2: On the kitchen counter, a wallet and a foam near
- 0:50Speaker 2: the back door. A pair of shoes, the left one
- 0:53Speaker 2: was tipped on its side. The cake had a name
- 0:55Speaker 2: written in blue gel. Richard Richard Hayes was twenty five
- 1:00Speaker 2: years old. He had not told any one he was leaving.
- 1:03Speaker 2: Richard Hayes had moved to for Copper Line Road in
- 1:06Speaker 2: Faroe Township in October of two thousand eighteen. He came
- 1:10Speaker 2: from Dunmore, about forty miles to the west for a
- 1:13Speaker 2: job as an account's receivable clerk at Hadden Building Materials,
- 1:18Speaker 2: a regional lumber supplier. He did not know any one
- 1:22Speaker 2: in Faroe Township when he arrived. No family in the area,
- 1:26Speaker 2: no old friends near by. He was starting over in
- 1:30Speaker 2: a place where nobody had a history with him. Yet
- 1:32Speaker 2: he built a quiet life. He went to work, he
- 1:36Speaker 2: kept to himself in ways that were not unfriendly, just careful.
- 1:40Speaker 2: By February of two thousand nineteen, he had joined a
- 1:43Speaker 2: Wednesday bowling league at Faroe Lane's. That detail matters more
- 1:47Speaker 2: than it might seem. His lane partner was Jim Kowalski,
- 1:51Speaker 2: a fifty year old property consultant who had been bowling
- 1:54Speaker 2: the same lane for six years. Jim noticed early that
- 1:57Speaker 2: Richard was a creature of habit in the best possible sense.
- 2:01Speaker 2: Same wrist wrap every week, worn the same way, ginger
- 2:05Speaker 2: ale from the vending machine, never anything else, Same three
- 2:10Speaker 2: practice rolls before the first frame, same sequence every time.
- 2:16Speaker 2: Jim later described Richard to investigators as someone who found
- 2:19Speaker 2: steadiness in repetition, someone who wanted things to be predictable,
- 2:24Speaker 2: because not everything in his life had been. Richard's twenty
- 2:28Speaker 2: fifth birthday was September twelfth, twenty nineteen, one day after
- 2:33Speaker 2: Dale Price climbed that pole. What investigators would piece together
- 2:37Speaker 2: over the weeks that followed was not a sudden disappearance.
- 2:41Speaker 2: It was the endpoint of something that had been engineered
- 2:43Speaker 2: across fourteen months quietly by someone Richard trusted completely. His
- 2:49Speaker 2: name was Charles Callahan. He was thirty nine years old
- 2:53Speaker 2: and lived in Stover County, sixty five miles southeast of
- 2:57Speaker 2: Faroe Township. By the time Richard moved to Copper Line Road,
- 3:01Speaker 2: Callahan already knew the house. He had serviced the heating
- 3:05Speaker 2: system there in September of twenty seventeen, called in by
- 3:09Speaker 2: the previous tenant for an emergency furnace repaired.
- 3:12Speaker 1: He knew the layout.
- 3:14Speaker 2: He knew there was a secondary entrance through the utility
- 3:16Speaker 2: room on the side of the house that led directly
- 3:19Speaker 2: to the back patio. Callahan had met Richard in July
- 3:22Speaker 2: of twenty eighteen at a hardware store in Dunmo. Richard
- 3:27Speaker 2: was buying drywalk Callahan offered to help carry it. According
- 3:31Speaker 2: to later testimony, Callahan was attentive, easy to talk to,
- 3:35Speaker 2: and seemed to appear at exactly the right moment. A
- 3:38Speaker 2: few weeks later, when Richard mentioned he needed to find
- 3:41Speaker 2: a place closer to his new job, Callahan helped him search.
- 3:45Speaker 2: He pointed Richard toward for Copper Line Road, as though
- 3:48Speaker 2: the idea had come to him naturally, as though it
- 3:52Speaker 2: just fit.
- 3:53Speaker 1: It was not natural.
- 3:55Speaker 2: Trauma specialist Raymond Brooks, brought in as a consulting expert
- 3:59Speaker 2: by the district attorney, described the tactic in his formal evaluation.
- 4:03Speaker 2: He called it manufactured providence. The manipulator designed circumstances to
- 4:09Speaker 2: appear destined. The target feels guided by good fortune. What
- 4:14Speaker 2: they are actually feeling is the shape of someone else's plan.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Richard moved in on a date Callahan helped choose into
- 4:21Speaker 2: a house Callahan had already walked through. Felicia Morrow worked
- 4:26Speaker 2: with Richard at Hadden Building Materials. She described him in
- 4:30Speaker 2: twenty nineteen as someone who had grown quieter over the months.
- 4:34Speaker 2: She had invited him to group dinners twice in March
- 4:37Speaker 2: of that year. He declined both times. She noticed bruising
- 4:41Speaker 2: on his forearm. In August, he told her he had
- 4:44Speaker 2: fallen off a ladder.
- 4:46Speaker 1: She did not push.
- 4:47Speaker 2: She was not sure later whether pushing would have changed anything.
- 4:51Speaker 2: Jim Kowalski noticed the absences. Richard had missed four Wednesday
- 4:56Speaker 2: bowling nights between August and September. Jim texted Tow twice.
- 5:01Speaker 2: Richard responded once, briefly saying he was tired. That was
- 5:05Speaker 2: the last message Jim received before nine to eleven. Something
- 5:09Speaker 2: had been closing around Richard Hayes for over a year.
- 5:12Speaker 2: The cake on the table was not a celebration. It
- 5:15Speaker 2: was the last thing Callahan set down before taking him.
- 5:19Speaker 2: The bowling alley was the only window left. By the
- 5:22Speaker 2: summer of twenty nineteen, Richard Hayes had reduced his world
- 5:26Speaker 2: to manageable size work at Hadden Building Materials, Wednesday nights
- 5:31Speaker 2: at Farow Lanes, and everything else had quietly fallen away.
- 5:35Speaker 2: It had not happened all at once. It had happened
- 5:39Speaker 2: the way a room slowly loses light. Not a switch,
- 5:42Speaker 2: but a series of small adjustments, each one reasonable on
- 5:46Speaker 2: its own. Jim Kowalski had been Richard's lane partner since February.
- 5:51Speaker 2: He noticed the rhythm of the man more than most
- 5:54Speaker 2: people would. Same wrist wrap every week, same ginger ale
- 5:58Speaker 2: from the machine by the entrance, same warm up sequence
- 6:01Speaker 2: before the first frame. Jim later told investigators that what
- 6:05Speaker 2: he noticed most was not what Richard did, but what
- 6:09Speaker 2: Richard stopped doing, the jokes, the lingering after the last game, then,
- 6:14Speaker 2: starting in August, the appearances themselves. Richard missed four Wednesday
- 6:19Speaker 2: nights in a row between August and September. Jim sent
- 6:23Speaker 2: two texts. One reply came back tired.
- 6:27Speaker 1: That was it.
- 6:28Speaker 2: Those four absences correspond exactly to four nights when Sylvia Prentiss,
- 6:33Speaker 2: Richard's landlord, observed a dark blue pick up truck parked
- 6:37Speaker 2: over night on Copperline Road. Prentiss was a retired school teacher.
- 6:42Speaker 1: She kept a careful eye on the street.
- 6:45Speaker 2: She had seen the truck before, since late July, she said,
- 6:48Speaker 2: sometimes several nights running.
- 6:51Speaker 1: She did not know whose it was. She did not
- 6:53Speaker 1: call anyone.
- 6:55Speaker 2: It did not seem at the time like something that
- 6:58Speaker 2: required a call. Truck belonged to Charles Callahan. Callahan was
- 7:03Speaker 2: thirty nine years old and lived sixty five miles southeast
- 7:08Speaker 2: in Stover County. His HVAC contracting license had lapsed in
- 7:12Speaker 2: twenty eighteen. Before it lapsed, his business records showed a
- 7:17Speaker 2: service call to four Copper Line Road in September of
- 7:20Speaker 2: twenty seventeen, a heating repair for the previous tenant. He
- 7:24Speaker 2: had been inside that house. He knew the layout. He
- 7:28Speaker 2: knew the utility room entrance that opened to the side
- 7:31Speaker 2: yard away from the street. He had known the address
- 7:34Speaker 2: for two years before Richard ever moved there. The lease
- 7:38Speaker 2: records show Richards signed in October of twenty eighteen. Callahan
- 7:43Speaker 2: had helped him find the place. He had pointed to
- 7:46Speaker 2: it the way you point to something you just happened
- 7:48Speaker 2: to think of. According to court testimony, he described it
- 7:52Speaker 2: as a good fit, quiet street close.
- 7:55Speaker 1: To the job.
- 7:56Speaker 2: Richard trusted the recommendation there was no reason not to.
- 8:01Speaker 2: By January of twenty nineteen, Richard had stopped seeing his
- 8:05Speaker 2: former room mates from Dunmore. By March, he had declined
- 8:09Speaker 2: both of Felicia Morrow's invitations to group dinners. Felicia worked
- 8:13Speaker 2: with him at Hadden. She described watching him become someone
- 8:17Speaker 2: who answered questions with shorter answers, who left the building
- 8:22Speaker 2: the moment his shift ended. Who in August had bruising
- 8:26Speaker 2: on his forearm that he attributed to a.
- 8:28Speaker 1: Fall from a ladder. Raymond Brooks.
- 8:31Speaker 2: The trauma specialist brought in as a consulting expert by
- 8:34Speaker 2: the District Attorney's office, put a clinical term to what
- 8:37Speaker 2: had been happening. He called it learned helplessness delivered as affection.
- 8:42Speaker 2: When Richard named something in the outside world that felt positive,
- 8:46Speaker 2: a friendly co worker, a good day, an invitation, Callahan
- 8:51Speaker 2: introduced doubt, not an argument, a raised eyebrow, an incomplete sentence,
- 8:57Speaker 2: a question that implied the positive thing was naive. When
- 9:01Speaker 2: Richard said he was tired or overwhelmed, Callahan reframed it
- 9:05Speaker 2: the world was too much for him.
- 9:07Speaker 1: He needed more protection than most people did.
- 9:09Speaker 2: He was fortunate to have someone who understood that the
- 9:13Speaker 2: reframing was not accidental.
- 9:15Speaker 1: It was the engine.
- 9:18Speaker 2: If he was found on September fourteenth, a fracture five
- 9:21Speaker 2: to twelve days old would date between September second and
- 9:24Speaker 2: September ninth. The last bowling night Richard attended before his
- 9:28Speaker 2: disappearance was in late July. The wrist fracture is not
- 9:32Speaker 2: in any latter story. There is no latter story for September.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Felicia Morrow saw.
- 9:39Speaker 2: Bruising in August and did not push. She said later
- 9:43Speaker 2: she was not certain pushing would have changed anything that
- 9:46Speaker 2: uncertainty is its own kind of evidence, evidence of how
- 9:50Speaker 2: thoroughly Callahan had managed the information landscape around Richard. No
- 9:54Speaker 2: one outside that house had a complete picture. Each person
- 9:58Speaker 2: had a fragment. Jim had the absences, Felicia had the bruises,
- 10:03Speaker 2: Sylvia had the truck. None of them had each other's
- 10:06Speaker 2: information until after nine eleven. The cake is where everything
- 10:10Speaker 2: becomes undeniable. Forensic analysis placed the cake's preparation on the
- 10:15Speaker 2: night of September tenth. Richard's birthday was September twelfth.
- 10:20Speaker 1: The cake was made.
- 10:21Speaker 2: Two days early and left outside in a yard where
- 10:24Speaker 2: a morning dew soaked through the tablecloth before eight forty
- 10:27Speaker 2: seven in the morning, when Dale Price spotted it from
- 10:30Speaker 2: twenty feet up a utility pole. One plate, one plastic fork,
- 10:36Speaker 2: one open bottle of champagne, with the foam already settled,
- 10:40Speaker 2: the glass warm.
- 10:41Speaker 1: To the touch.
- 10:42Speaker 2: The birthday was in two days. There was no second plate.
- 10:46Speaker 2: The champagne had not been poured. Brooks testified that the
- 10:50Speaker 2: staging was not celebratory.
- 10:52Speaker 1: It was proprietary.
- 10:53Speaker 2: The name written in blue gel on that cake was
- 10:57Speaker 2: not an invitation, it was a label. The table had
- 11:00Speaker 2: been set for possession, not for a party. Callahan had
- 11:04Speaker 2: planned to take Richard on the night of September tenth.
- 11:07Speaker 2: Something interrupted the plan. The cereal bowl inside was half eaten,
- 11:12Speaker 2: the spoon resting.
- 11:13Speaker 1: On the rim. The orange juice was untouched and warm.
- 11:18Speaker 2: The silver compact car sat in the driveway with the
- 11:21Speaker 2: driver's window open. Richard's wallet and phone were on the
- 11:25Speaker 2: kitchen counter. His shoes were on the floor by the
- 11:28Speaker 2: back door, the left one tipped on its side. He
- 11:31Speaker 2: had not walked out, he had been moved. The table
- 11:34Speaker 2: stayed in the yard. The cake stayed on the table.
- 11:38Speaker 2: Callahan did not stop to clear any of it. He
- 11:40Speaker 2: left in a hurry, or in a crisis, or both.
- 11:44Speaker 2: Picture the night of September tenth. Callahan had been in
- 11:47Speaker 2: that house before he knew the utility room, entrance, the
- 11:51Speaker 2: side yard, the geography of the place. In the dark,
- 11:54Speaker 2: he had made the cake himself and set the table
- 11:56Speaker 2: outside under the arborvite hedge, where it would not be
- 12:00Speaker 2: visible from the road. The champagne was already open. He
- 12:04Speaker 2: had thought through the evening, but the serial bowl says
- 12:07Speaker 2: the morning came. If Callahan had taken Richard quietly on
- 12:11Speaker 2: the night of the tenth. The bowl would not have
- 12:14Speaker 2: been there Richard ate breakfast. Something delayed the plan by
- 12:18Speaker 2: hours may be longer. Investigators believe Richard resisted or attempted
- 12:24Speaker 2: to leave. The tipped shoe is consistent with a struggle
- 12:28Speaker 2: near the back door. The fracture in his wrist, already
- 12:31Speaker 2: days old, is consistent with a previous attempt to stop
- 12:35Speaker 2: him from going somewhere.
- 12:36Speaker 1: The version where Richard went.
- 12:38Speaker 2: Willingly collapses the moment you look at that shoe. The
- 12:41Speaker 2: version where Callahan panicked collapses against a different fact. Richard
- 12:46Speaker 2: was not reported missing until five days after September tenth.
- 12:50Speaker 2: Callahan was arrested five days after Richard was found on
- 12:54Speaker 2: September nineteenth. The table sat in the yard through two
- 12:58Speaker 2: mornings of doom. No neighbor called, no one came to
- 13:02Speaker 2: the door. Callahan had read the isolation correctly. There was
- 13:07Speaker 2: no one close enough to notice quickly. His calculation was
- 13:11Speaker 2: not panic. It was patience applied over fourteen months. There
- 13:15Speaker 2: is a third possibility, and it is the one the
- 13:18Speaker 2: evidence supports most completely. Callahan did not improvise. The motel
- 13:23Speaker 2: Stover County, where he was eventually arrested is sixty five
- 13:27Speaker 2: miles southeast of Faroe Township. Bricket Falls, where Richard was found,
- 13:32Speaker 2: is forty miles north. The geometry does not suggest flight,
- 13:36Speaker 2: It suggests a destination that had been chosen before.
- 13:39Speaker 1: September tenth.
- 13:40Speaker 2: Richard was found malnourished and disoriented. The condition of his
- 13:45Speaker 2: wrist already fractured before the night of the Cake, means
- 13:49Speaker 2: the violence had a history. This was not a situation
- 13:52Speaker 2: that escalated suddenly into captivity. The captivity had been building
- 13:57Speaker 2: in the house on Copperline Road for months, and the
- 14:00Speaker 2: hotel was simply the next room. The cake was the
- 14:03Speaker 2: last thing Callahan staged before the staging moved somewhere else,
- 14:07Speaker 2: and then in a holding facility in Stover County, Callahan
- 14:11Speaker 2: said something to a man named Marcus Webb. Webb had
- 14:15Speaker 2: been charged with fraud. He and Callahan were housed in
- 14:18Speaker 2: the same unit while awaiting their respective proceedings. Webb later
- 14:22Speaker 2: told his attorney what Callahan had told him, and that
- 14:25Speaker 2: account reached the prosecution. Callahan said he had done this before.
- 14:30Speaker 2: He said Richard was the fourth. He said Kevin Pratt
- 14:33Speaker 2: had never been found because Pratt had a history of
- 14:36Speaker 2: leaving without notice, and no one had looked very hard.
- 14:40Speaker 2: In November of twenty nineteen, investigators found remains on a
- 14:45Speaker 2: rural property outside Elton Junction. DNA confirmed the identity Kevin Pratt,
- 14:52Speaker 2: thirty one years old at the time of his disappearance.
- 14:55Speaker 2: In twenty sixteen. Callahan's business records showed an h v
- 14:59Speaker 2: A A service call to a property adjacent to Pratt's
- 15:03Speaker 2: residence two weeks before Pratt vanished, the same approach, the
- 15:07Speaker 2: same access, the same disappearance into a gap that no
- 15:11Speaker 2: one was watching. Richard Hayes survived, Kevin Pratt did not.
- 15:15Speaker 2: The difference, according to every piece of evidence in the record,
- 15:18Speaker 2: was not luck. It was Dale Price climbing a utility
- 15:22Speaker 2: pole on a Tuesday morning to check fourteen residential meters
- 15:26Speaker 2: and seeing through a gap in an arborvite hedge a
- 15:29Speaker 2: birthday cake with a name written in blue gel sitting
- 15:33Speaker 2: at a table set for one. Detective Sandra Cole found
- 15:36Speaker 2: Richard Hayes on the fourteenth of September twenty nineteen at
- 15:40Speaker 2: a motel in Bricket Falls, forty miles north of Faroe Township.
- 15:45Speaker 2: He was malnourished, He was disoriented. His left wrist had
- 15:49Speaker 2: been fractured at some point in the previous.
- 15:51Speaker 1: Five to twelve days.
- 15:52Speaker 2: He had not gone there voluntarily. Five days later, on
- 15:57Speaker 2: the nineteenth of September, Charless Callahan was arrested at a
- 16:01Speaker 2: relative's property in Stover County. He did not resist. The
- 16:06Speaker 2: arrest came before the confession. In January of twenty twenty,
- 16:11Speaker 2: after a plea negotiation collapsed, the district attorney declined the agreement.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Callahan offered a formal confession. It changed nothing. The charges stood.
- 16:21Speaker 2: In the autumn of twenty twenty, he was convicted on kidnapping,
- 16:26Speaker 2: aggravated assault, and unlawful restraint in the case of Richard Hayes,
- 16:30Speaker 2: and on second degree homicide in the case of Kevin Pratt.
- 16:33Speaker 2: The two sentences ran consecutively. The confession did not mitigate
- 16:38Speaker 2: the outcome. The district attorney had already built the case
- 16:41Speaker 2: from the ground up business records, Sylvia Prentice's account of
- 16:45Speaker 2: the dark blue truck, Felicia Morrow's description of the bruising
- 16:48Speaker 2: in August, Jim Kowalski's precise recall of four missing Wednesday nights,
- 16:54Speaker 2: the birthday cake stored in an evidence locker for eleven
- 16:57Speaker 2: months and photographed from fourteen angles. The confession added a
- 17:01Speaker 2: voice to facts that had already spoken. Raymond Brooks, the
- 17:06Speaker 2: trauma therapist who had worked as a prosecution consultant, was
- 17:09Speaker 2: present at the court house on both trial days. He
- 17:12Speaker 2: waited in the corridor each time Richard Hayes testified. He
- 17:16Speaker 2: did not sit beside Richard inside the court room. That
- 17:19Speaker 2: was Richard's choice, and Brooks honored it. Richard testified in
- 17:23Speaker 2: both trials. He described fourteen months in detail. He described
- 17:28Speaker 2: the first meeting in a hardware store in Dunmore, the
- 17:31Speaker 2: way Callahan had carried the drywall without being asked. He
- 17:35Speaker 2: described the apartment on Copperline Road, the way it had
- 17:39Speaker 2: felt like good fortune when the unit opened up. He
- 17:42Speaker 2: described a Wednesday nights at faroh Lane's as the only
- 17:46Speaker 2: hours that felt like air. He described August. He described
- 17:50Speaker 2: the morning of September tenth, the cake on the table
- 17:53Speaker 2: outside the champagne already opened. The single plate. When the
- 17:58Speaker 2: verdicts were read, Richard Hayes did not look at Charles Callahan.
- 18:02Speaker 2: He walked out of the court house and did not
- 18:04Speaker 2: turn around. The following February he returned to Faroe Lanes.
- 18:09Speaker 2: Jim Kowalski was there, same lane, same wristrap, same ginger
- 18:15Speaker 2: ale from the machine. Kevin Pratt was thirty one years
- 18:18Speaker 2: old when he disappeared in twenty sixteen. His remains were
- 18:22Speaker 2: found on a rural property outside Elton Junction in November
- 18:26Speaker 2: of two thousand nineteen. By then, Richard Hayes had already
- 18:31Speaker 2: been home for two months. Callahan told Marcus Webb that
- 18:34Speaker 2: Richard was the fourth. The investigation confirmed at least two
- 18:39Speaker 2: victims by name. The other two alleged victims remain unconfirmed publicly.
- 18:44Speaker 2: That number four sits in the record without resolution, and
- 18:49Speaker 2: it is worth sitting with it for a moment. The
- 18:51Speaker 2: mechanism that Raymond Brooks named manufactured providence did not begin
- 18:56Speaker 2: with Richard Hayes and did not end with Kevin Pratt.
- 19:00Speaker 2: It began somewhere earlier, with someone whose name is not
- 19:03Speaker 2: yet in the public record, in a hardware store or
- 19:07Speaker 2: a parking lot, or a property where Callahan happened to
- 19:10Speaker 2: be working. It began with an offer of help that
- 19:13Speaker 2: felt exactly like luck. What makes this case different from
- 19:17Speaker 2: others built on isolation and control is the precision of
- 19:20Speaker 2: the architecture. Callahan did not simply separate Richard from the
- 19:24Speaker 2: people around him. He replaced them. He made himself the
- 19:28Speaker 2: only available explanation for why Richard's life felt manageable. When
- 19:32Speaker 2: Richard felt exhausted, Callahan offered the explanation. When Richard felt uncertain,
- 19:38Speaker 2: Callahan offered the certainty. The world outside became over fourteen months,
- 19:42Speaker 2: a place that required Callahan to navigate. Brooks described it
- 19:46Speaker 2: as learned helplessness delivered as affection. That phrase is clinical.
- 19:51Speaker 2: What it means in practice is that Richard Hayes was
- 19:55Speaker 2: made to feel cared for at every stage of his
- 19:57Speaker 2: own dismantling. The birthd day cake was not a celebration.
- 20:02Speaker 2: It was a final notation, a name written in blue
- 20:06Speaker 2: gel on a white surface. One plate, one fork, one fork,
- 20:12Speaker 2: champagne for no one. Callahan set it out the night
- 20:16Speaker 2: of September tenth, two days before Richard's actual birthday on
- 20:21Speaker 2: the twelfth. Because he was not waiting for the birthday.
- 20:25Speaker 2: He was ready to move before it arrived. Something in
- 20:28Speaker 2: that house interrupted him. The serial half eaten, the spoon
- 20:32Speaker 2: at the edge of the bowl, the left shoe overturned
- 20:35Speaker 2: on the floor, mined, and Richard ended up forty miles
- 20:40Speaker 2: away in a motel room instead of somewhere investigators might
- 20:44Speaker 2: never have thought to look. Dale Price climbed a utility
- 20:47Speaker 2: pole on the morning of nine reve eleventh to check
- 20:49Speaker 2: fourteen residential meters. He looked through a gap in an
- 20:53Speaker 2: arbor Tay Hedge and saw a name on a cake.
- 20:56Speaker 2: He called his dispatcher. That call is why Richard Hayes
- 21:01Speaker 2: testified in court instead of becoming a name in a
- 21:04Speaker 2: missing person's database that no one searched very hard. There
- 21:08Speaker 2: is something in this case that stays, not the violence
- 21:12Speaker 2: and not the verdict. It is the image of Richard
