- 0:00Speaker 1: He gets his inheritances after him. That's why, or a movement.
- 0:05Speaker 2: We're going to bear all our.
- 0:06Speaker 1: Bills off that we need to pay off and then
- 0:08Speaker 1: take a long vacation.
- 0:11Speaker 3: Less than twenty four hours from this footage, Aina Deachinoyer's husband,
- 0:16Speaker 3: Steve Riley, was life lighted to the hospital due to
- 0:19Speaker 3: a sudden sickness that immobilized his body. Within an hour
- 0:24Speaker 3: of being at the hospital, he would pass away.
- 0:30Speaker 4: I thought everybody knew it for.
- 0:34Speaker 5: Why.
- 0:36Speaker 3: What the cop doesn't realize at this time is that
- 0:39Speaker 3: Aina is a very good actor, and she knows far
- 0:43Speaker 3: more about Steve's sickness than she leads on. See, Steve
- 0:48Speaker 3: was less than an hour away from cashing in a
- 0:51Speaker 3: thirty seven million dollar inheritance payment when he became fatally ill,
- 0:56Speaker 3: and as the multi week investigation would progress, detectives would
- 0:59Speaker 3: quit discover that Steve's death was due to poisoning. Someone
- 1:05Speaker 3: had killed him, and everyone close to Steve all had
- 1:09Speaker 3: dire needs to claim his newfound fortune by any means necessary.
- 1:14Speaker 6: It was like twenty million.
- 1:17Speaker 7: Best thing you can do is to get on the
- 1:20Speaker 7: plane and don't look back.
- 1:31Speaker 8: Police department, it's the police department.
- 1:34Speaker 1: It's not yet.
- 1:35Speaker 3: This bodycam was recorded the night before Steve Riley's death.
- 1:39Speaker 3: Steve and Aina's drunken neighbor had been harassing them and
- 1:42Speaker 3: other residents of the neighborhood, so Aina called nine one
- 1:45Speaker 3: one to de escalate the situation. What makes this specific
- 1:49Speaker 3: footage interesting is not the situation with their drunken neighbor,
- 1:52Speaker 3: but rather what Ina would tell police after her thirty
- 1:56Speaker 3: seven million dollar inheritance fund that she's just our away
- 2:00Speaker 3: from cashing in.
- 2:02Speaker 6: You thought it was Chad? Yeah, who was kicking everybody's door?
- 2:06Speaker 9: Who was hitting?
- 2:06Speaker 6: Rested the light?
- 2:08Speaker 10: Look at the desk?
- 2:09Speaker 2: Kad?
- 2:10Speaker 8: Who is her?
- 2:10Speaker 1: Who is he fighting? Fiance?
- 2:15Speaker 3: He went for a walk down?
- 2:17Speaker 1: Who's your parents?
- 2:19Speaker 4: Riley?
- 2:19Speaker 1: Steve Riley? What's your name?
- 2:23Speaker 6: I mean?
- 2:23Speaker 11: As is your fiance?
- 2:25Speaker 7: Heard it all?
- 2:27Speaker 11: He got cash in my forehead.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Okay, you know, we just want to talk with him
- 2:32Speaker 1: to just make sure he's all right.
- 2:33Speaker 10: In lost.
- 2:37Speaker 7: Didn't flood all the way over there.
- 2:39Speaker 1: So what actually happened to night?
- 2:41Speaker 4: What were they fighting over?
- 2:42Speaker 11: Ed was kind of kicking in the door just for
- 2:45Speaker 11: no reason or just just drap He does that?
- 2:48Speaker 4: Where do you think your fiance would have went?
- 2:50Speaker 8: So we could just get inside of the story real quick.
- 2:52Speaker 4: Oh, I don't know he got a phone on.
- 2:55Speaker 1: No, we don't have a phone until this afternoon.
- 2:58Speaker 3: But this is where I know reveals something she shouldn't have.
- 3:01Speaker 3: Their plans to pay off all of their bills, which
- 3:04Speaker 3: had over the years been racking up, and she does
- 3:07Speaker 3: this for one reason to brag.
- 3:10Speaker 1: He gets his inheritances after him.
- 3:13Speaker 12: That's why.
- 3:14Speaker 10: Or move it.
- 3:17Speaker 1: We're gonna beare all our bills off that we need
- 3:19Speaker 1: to pay off.
- 3:21Speaker 3: His lawyer gets here today.
- 3:22Speaker 1: At two on the paperwork for his money, okay, and
- 3:26Speaker 1: then he's gonna go pay that and a lawyer pay
- 3:31Speaker 1: the rest of his child tower and then take a
- 3:34Speaker 1: long vacation.
- 3:37Speaker 3: According to Aina, Steve is set to receive an inheritance
- 3:40Speaker 3: from his late uncle tomorrow, which supposedly is enough money
- 3:44Speaker 3: to turn their lives around completely. What police don't realize
- 3:48Speaker 3: at this time is how enormous this inheritance sum really is.
- 3:54Speaker 3: In twenty sixteen, Steve's friend had received a call from
- 3:57Speaker 3: a man named Marcus Riley, who claimed to be Steve's
- 4:01Speaker 3: long lost uncle from Ireland. He had explained that he
- 4:04Speaker 3: finally wanted to get in touch with his nephew Steve.
- 4:07Speaker 3: After connecting with each other, Steve had learned he was
- 4:10Speaker 3: in line to receive an inheritance upon his uncle's passing,
- 4:14Speaker 3: which was a sum of over seventeen million dollars at
- 4:17Speaker 3: the time. This was enough to permanently fix the financial
- 4:21Speaker 3: struggles he and Aina had been dealing with a couple
- 4:23Speaker 3: of years Later, four months prior to the footage you
- 4:27Speaker 3: just watched, Steve would learn of his uncle's passing from
- 4:29Speaker 3: a British lawyer who had contacted him. Additionally, he would
- 4:33Speaker 3: learn that his seventeen million dollar inheritance had grown to
- 4:36Speaker 3: over thirty million due to his uncle's successful investments over
- 4:40Speaker 3: the years. That's why Aina cannot hold herself from boasting
- 4:44Speaker 3: to the police. Tomorrow, they planned to meet with their
- 4:47Speaker 3: lawyer to officially sign the documents and claim the thirty
- 4:51Speaker 3: million dollar inheritance fund. The two planned to take the
- 4:55Speaker 3: money and live with Steve's long lost family in Ireland
- 4:58Speaker 3: quote living in the castles. In less than twenty four hours,
- 5:03Speaker 3: Aina will be rich. So as officers lead for the night,
- 5:07Speaker 3: Aina would make one final statement about how her life
- 5:12Speaker 3: was about to change forever.
- 5:15Speaker 8: If you want to step back inside, and then if
- 5:16Speaker 8: Steve shows back up, we're gonna try to with for
- 5:19Speaker 8: him to get his side of the story as well.
- 5:20Speaker 4: But if Steve shows back up, if you just want
- 5:22Speaker 4: to give.
- 5:22Speaker 8: Us a call, or have him give us a call,
- 5:23Speaker 8: we'll talk to that.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, you're gonna stop buy anything's like I said,
- 5:27Speaker 1: sounds good. I've only been able to put like.
- 5:29Speaker 11: Five dollars on his fines, but at least.
- 5:31Speaker 1: It was something.
- 5:32Speaker 4: Okay, sounds good.
- 5:34Speaker 11: We're gonna pay it all off, all at once.
- 5:37Speaker 4: Perfect, Thank you.
- 5:39Speaker 3: Steve would return to his and Aina's apartment that night,
- 5:43Speaker 3: and the two would patiently wait, not being able to
- 5:46Speaker 3: sleep as they counted down the hours until they would
- 5:49Speaker 3: receive their millions. The plan to receive the funds was simple.
- 5:53Speaker 3: At two pm, the group would go to the airport
- 5:56Speaker 3: to meet their lawyer, who was flying in with their
- 5:58Speaker 3: inheritance paperwork, and Steve obliged and would arrive at the
- 6:02Speaker 3: airport alongside their two friends, Billy and West, before patiently waiting. However,
- 6:08Speaker 3: while they were waiting for the lawyer's arrival, Steve would
- 6:12Speaker 3: become extremely sick. He would claim, feeling drunk, even throwing
- 6:17Speaker 3: up in the airport bathrooms. His heart rate was rapidly increasing,
- 6:21Speaker 3: and his condition worsened to the point where Wes decided
- 6:24Speaker 3: to take him home to help him treat his sickness.
- 6:27Speaker 3: Aina would wait at the airport for the lawyer to arrive. However,
- 6:31Speaker 3: he would never show up, and after a couple of hours,
- 6:35Speaker 3: with no lawyer, no money, and a sick fiance, she
- 6:40Speaker 3: would return home as well. Everyone believed that Steve had
- 6:45Speaker 3: suffered from a heat stroke as a result of working
- 6:48Speaker 3: on his truck for hours that morning, but Steve's symptoms
- 6:51Speaker 3: were far more fatal than the heat strokes he had
- 6:54Speaker 3: received in the past, even experiencing fatal signs of kidney failure.
- 6:58Speaker 3: Throughout the night and in the morning, Steve would become
- 7:03Speaker 3: completely unresponsive, forcing Aina to call nine one one.
- 7:12Speaker 2: My husband's really sick. He got he broke yesterday and
- 7:17Speaker 2: now he's not waking up.
- 7:20Speaker 1: Come on, wake up.
- 7:22Speaker 2: What's the calling from. I don't have a phone over
- 7:28Speaker 2: it's a phaone that never got finished getting set up.
- 7:31Speaker 2: Come on, babe, I've been trying everything, ice water okay,
- 7:42Speaker 2: but he is breathing, yes, he's snoring. He won't talk
- 7:48Speaker 2: to me anymore. He won't look at me, he won't
- 7:50Speaker 2: open his eyes. Okay, I've got help on the way.
- 7:54Speaker 6: Just keep an eye on his breathing.
- 7:55Speaker 2: If anything changes with his breathing, tell me immediately.
- 8:02Speaker 4: Hello, Yeah, it's officers.
- 8:10Speaker 11: All that might not be.
- 8:21Speaker 3: Inside the home. Officers would find Steve fully unresponsive and
- 8:26Speaker 3: they would drag him out of the house through piles
- 8:29Speaker 3: of trash and filth. Quickly he was rushed to the
- 8:32Speaker 3: nearest hospital, but with his conditions so poor, he would
- 8:35Speaker 3: be flown to the Saint Alexis Hospital to undergo more
- 8:38Speaker 3: professional treatment. But before we get to that, I want

- 8:56Speaker 3: or a loved one. If so, you've probably been shocked

- 9:01Speaker 3: not even mentioning what companies, data brokers, and scammers might
- 9:05Speaker 3: know about you. In twenty twenty four, during the National
- 9:08Speaker 3: Public Data breach, a friend of mine's name and social
- 9:10Speaker 3: Security number got leaked, which could have allowed malicious people
- 9:14Speaker 3: to open credit cards and take out loans in his name. Luckily,
- 9:17Speaker 3: he caught it in time and could take precautions. But
- 9:19Speaker 3: over two point nine billion records were stolen in that
- 9:22Speaker 3: data breach, and many of those people involved don't even
- 9:25Speaker 3: realize their information is out there. Ara will help you
- 9:28Speaker 3: take those precautions today by removing your personal information from

- 9:53Speaker 3: After Steve was flown to the hospital, I know what
- 9:56Speaker 3: explained to the officers that Steve had gotten a heat
- 9:59Speaker 3: stroke which caused his illness. The officers had no reason
- 10:02Speaker 3: not to believe her story, so they would comfort her
- 10:05Speaker 3: throughout the day as Steve was being treated. Unfortunately, Steve
- 10:10Speaker 3: would never again regain consciousness. This is Billy Burkhead, Steve
- 10:17Speaker 3: and Aina's neighbor, and he was with Stephen. Aina the
- 10:20Speaker 3: entire day of his sudden sickness, even working on the
- 10:23Speaker 3: truck with Steve and traveling with them to the airport.
- 10:26Speaker 3: Billy simply refused to believe that Steve's death was caused
- 10:29Speaker 3: by heat's stroke, especially since Steve seemed perfectly fine all
- 10:33Speaker 3: day until they reached the airport. Instead, Billy suspected something
- 10:38Speaker 3: far more sinister and wanted to share his theory with
- 10:41Speaker 3: the detectives, So the day after Steve's death, Billy would
- 10:45Speaker 3: call officers back to Apartment nine one two A to
- 10:48Speaker 3: detail his side of the story.
- 10:50Speaker 5: We think she poisoned me.
- 10:53Speaker 7: I'm not sure she poisoned that.
- 10:55Speaker 4: So what's your plan right now?
- 10:56Speaker 7: That would making sure nothing goes because you know they
- 11:00Speaker 7: got jailed to death.
- 11:01Speaker 4: I say, here, when to give her up?
- 11:13Speaker 1: He's dead and he was poisoned.
- 11:17Speaker 3: Billy's explanation for Steve's death is well horrifying. If I
- 11:24Speaker 3: truly did poison Steve, then his symptoms would make sense
- 11:28Speaker 3: and would add up far more than the idea of
- 11:31Speaker 3: him having a heat stroke. However, why would I know
- 11:35Speaker 3: want to poison her husband if they were about to
- 11:37Speaker 3: live such a good life. Well, Billy seems to have
- 11:41Speaker 3: the exact answer to that question.
- 11:44Speaker 4: Another day, stuff out the yard from his from his house,
- 11:49Speaker 4: and he.
- 11:50Speaker 1: Come out and he was holding his head down.
- 11:52Speaker 7: And then we're supposed to go up to the airport
- 11:55Speaker 7: and meet this guy because he's warts to get quite a.
- 11:58Speaker 5: Bit of money.
- 11:59Speaker 7: Come back. We had to help him out of the car,
- 12:02Speaker 7: had to help him in the house, and everyone, Billy
- 12:06Speaker 7: come home.
- 12:07Speaker 6: And then the next morning she's.
- 12:09Speaker 7: Throwing all this stuff out. I think she was most called.
- 12:14Speaker 3: Billy thinks that Aina was secretly planning to split with
- 12:17Speaker 3: Steve after the inhabitants was received, even going so far
- 12:21Speaker 3: as to throw his belongings out of the house after
- 12:23Speaker 3: they returned from the airport. Even worse is that Anah
- 12:27Speaker 3: lied about getting help for Steve after they returned from
- 12:29Speaker 3: the airport, pretending to take him to get treated, when
- 12:33Speaker 3: in reality, they never left the house. Unfortunately, Aina overheard
- 12:38Speaker 3: all of this talk and decided to give Billy a
- 12:41Speaker 3: piece of her own mind.
- 12:44Speaker 1: I've taken off, I meant a brother.
- 12:54Speaker 8: Picture what Billy, how you Steve call out yesterday?
- 13:07Speaker 1: It's the hospital I found out poisoned?
- 13:12Speaker 8: How'd you find that out?
- 13:15Speaker 7: You told?
- 13:16Speaker 1: I'm just telling the son don't ever stop at that.
- 13:21Speaker 1: They're nasty people.
- 13:22Speaker 3: They're nasty coincidentally seemed to put the blame on the neighbors,
- 13:27Speaker 3: calling them evil people. It's become more clear that Steve's
- 13:32Speaker 3: death was far more sinister than officers had first expected.
- 13:36Speaker 3: Officers now had a potential homicide case to investigate, but
- 13:40Speaker 3: as they went to leave, one officer accidentally broke the
- 13:44Speaker 3: news to Aina that her fiance had passed away.
- 13:47Speaker 4: And I knew. I guess his son is on his
- 14:05Speaker 4: way here. Okay, early, the son is on the way here.
- 14:14Speaker 6: So tom.
- 14:19Speaker 3: Aina's reaction to her husband's passing is one of the
- 14:23Speaker 3: strangest I've ever seen. She starts bawling her eyes out,
- 14:27Speaker 3: then suddenly jumps right back to her normal self, as
- 14:31Speaker 3: if she hadn't even heard the terrible news to begin with.
- 14:34Speaker 3: It's becoming more and more clear that something is not
- 14:37Speaker 3: adding up. Billy was not the only person to initially
- 14:41Speaker 3: put the blame on Aina. In fact, he was only
- 14:44Speaker 3: one of many who would come forward with their concerns.
- 14:48Speaker 3: In fact, Billy's wife, Lynn, had stated that Aina had
- 14:51Speaker 3: made horrifying statements in the past, alluding that if she
- 14:55Speaker 3: was to ever kill her partner, she would poison him
- 14:58Speaker 3: using an anti free To add to the pile of
- 15:02Speaker 3: already incriminating information, Steve would be tested for ethylene glycol
- 15:06Speaker 3: in his bloodstream, a key ingredient in anti freeze. To
- 15:09Speaker 3: nobody's surprise, the results showed toxic levels of ethylene glycol
- 15:14Speaker 3: in his system. This information would serve as the catalyst
- 15:17Speaker 3: for initiating a formal homicide investigation into the death of
- 15:21Speaker 3: Steve Riley. Following the commencement of the investigation, a series
- 15:25Speaker 3: of intensive interrogations would be conducted with all parties connected
- 15:28Speaker 3: to the incident, including Ayina, to ultimately solve Steve's murder. However,
- 15:34Speaker 3: before that, Aino would launch a plan of her own.
- 15:38Speaker 3: It must have been made apparent to her that she
- 15:40Speaker 3: was in hot water, as the day after this encounter
- 15:43Speaker 3: with the police, she would call them back to Apartment
- 15:46Speaker 3: nine one to two A to explain theories of her own.
- 15:50Speaker 4: Hi, Okay, what's going on?
- 15:55Speaker 1: I don't know if it.
- 16:00Speaker 11: Where's the truck at the garage?
- 16:02Speaker 1: Is this the no?
- 16:04Speaker 5: No?
- 16:04Speaker 1: No, this is uh property that Steve was Bryan after
- 16:11Speaker 1: his inheritance got here. I think he left it to
- 16:13Speaker 1: his son, But I had to google where to go
- 16:18Speaker 1: to get his inheritance swipped over.
- 16:22Speaker 12: Two people he left it too.
- 16:24Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 16:26Speaker 1: I don't know today he was supposed to be his lawyer.
- 16:30Speaker 1: Apparently I thought it was he's from.
- 16:34Speaker 11: Apparently he was poisoned.
- 16:36Speaker 1: I'm fighting out with Afres.
- 16:40Speaker 11: All right, and I don't know how to get a
- 16:42Speaker 11: hold of the guy Hick in London inheritance.
- 16:45Speaker 1: He should be here in town.
- 16:48Speaker 12: You never should up.
- 16:48Speaker 6: A scare for, of course, how to figure out.
- 16:51Speaker 3: Why Kinda seems to conspire to the idea that Steve
- 16:56Speaker 3: may have drank the anti freeze himself, or that someone
- 16:59Speaker 3: may have poisoned him. However, despite all the suspicion being
- 17:03Speaker 3: thrown her way, she can only stay on track for
- 17:06Speaker 3: minutes before going back on tangents about her inheritance fund.
- 17:10Speaker 3: It was clear at this point that somebody had poisoned Steve.
- 17:14Speaker 3: The idea of this being self inflicted was unlikely, as
- 17:17Speaker 3: Steve had a life changing amount of money waiting for
- 17:20Speaker 3: him and would have had to drink the anti freeze
- 17:23Speaker 3: just hours before going to claim the catch. Clearly, Aina
- 17:28Speaker 3: can be made out as the lead's suspect due to
- 17:30Speaker 3: the amount of fingers being pointed her way, but the
- 17:33Speaker 3: other potential suspects should not be ruled out either. With
- 17:36Speaker 3: this in mind, officers would bring their first suspect in
- 17:40Speaker 3: for questioning, Rebecca. Rebecca was another neighbor of Aina and
- 17:43Speaker 3: Steve's who was very involved with the entire case so far,
- 17:47Speaker 3: pitching her opinion to police whenever she could. Rebecca was
- 17:50Speaker 3: brought in primarily to add to the pile of evidence
- 17:52Speaker 3: to confront Aina with later, but as the interview would continue,
- 17:56Speaker 3: strange red flags would arise from Rebecca's eye personality.
- 18:01Speaker 5: You guys know my daughter, how's she doing?
- 18:06Speaker 10: Yesterday?
- 18:08Speaker 5: God works and mister eusways she was arrested release She said,
- 18:14Speaker 5: this is the demons that are in her, the spirits
- 18:18Speaker 5: that follow her is able to change her butt cheeks,
- 18:22Speaker 5: so maybe they'll stop following her.
- 18:26Speaker 9: Well hopefully, she miss I.
- 18:28Speaker 10: Prayce she does.
- 18:30Speaker 3: Starting off a homicide interview explaining how demons left your
- 18:34Speaker 3: daughter's butt is an interesting way of proving your innocence.
- 18:38Speaker 3: But the detective isn't here to judge, rather to get
- 18:41Speaker 3: to the bottom of Steve's death, so he'll ignore these
- 18:44Speaker 3: strange remarks.
- 18:48Speaker 10: I know something.
- 18:49Speaker 5: I'm a nose.
- 18:50Speaker 10: Your neighbor's good.
- 18:51Speaker 6: I like it.
- 18:52Speaker 10: Well, I know I know what cause belong, what cause don't.
- 18:58Speaker 10: Who lives in my neighborhood? Who doesn't? Yes, that's good.
- 19:02Speaker 9: We're investigating Steve's passing just because it sounds like maybe
- 19:06Speaker 9: there's something.
- 19:06Speaker 10: I was just ambitious about. Whatever. Line know, how long
- 19:11Speaker 10: have you see and Inna lived there that you know of?
- 19:15Speaker 10: Two years? Okay? How is their relationship that you know?
- 19:18Speaker 5: The first year was Steve was looking great, doing great
- 19:23Speaker 5: the past year. I don't know if she suffers for
- 19:26Speaker 5: mental illness at times, but her mental state went downhill
- 19:31Speaker 5: the past year.
- 19:33Speaker 10: When you lose weight, when.
- 19:34Speaker 5: You're not acting right, shady stuff going on, you're not working.
- 19:40Speaker 10: Yes he was, he said. It got worse in the
- 19:45Speaker 10: last couple of months.
- 19:47Speaker 3: It seems as though Steve's life wasn't as straightforward as
- 19:51Speaker 3: initially thought, having drug issues, weight loss, and possibly depression.
- 19:57Speaker 3: Whether or not I know was a large contributor to
- 19:59Speaker 3: these deteriorating issues is something they will soon learn, as
- 20:03Speaker 3: this interview would become a pivotal piece of evidence, laying
- 20:06Speaker 3: the groundwork to dismantle her defense entirely. During the interrogation
- 20:11Speaker 3: and it got more the.
- 20:13Speaker 10: Last couple of months. You think likely that pride whatever?
- 20:17Speaker 6: Yes, do you think she was using?
- 20:19Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 20:19Speaker 10: Okay?
- 20:20Speaker 5: And alcohol used to okay, yes, both of them alcohol.
- 20:24Speaker 6: Okay.
- 20:24Speaker 10: So Steve had mentioned before, like in the past, about
- 20:27Speaker 10: about getting money. Yes, how many?
- 20:29Speaker 6: Like two million?
- 20:31Speaker 3: The amount Steve had planned to receive was something he
- 20:34Speaker 3: kept very secret, often lying to people like Rebecca on
- 20:38Speaker 3: how much he was actually getting. As we'll soon find out,
- 20:42Speaker 3: this number was much much larger than two million.
- 20:46Speaker 5: One of the uncle passed away. Yes, first he said
- 20:51Speaker 5: he was gonna leave it to Ina, and then they
- 20:53Speaker 5: were quite and a couple months later he said he
- 20:56Speaker 5: went back and changed the will.
- 20:58Speaker 6: He told me, he was like, don't tell you, but
- 21:00Speaker 6: I changed it.
- 21:02Speaker 3: This statement from Rebecca would explain what AA was talking
- 21:05Speaker 3: about last time she spoke to police, and how she
- 21:08Speaker 3: was trying to switch the will over from Steve's son
- 21:11Speaker 3: to herself. If Ia discovered his plan, it would have
- 21:15Speaker 3: given her a strong incentive to do whatever it took
- 21:18Speaker 3: to change the will back in her favor, possibly by
- 21:21Speaker 3: any means necessary.
- 21:23Speaker 5: Because it started five months and he told me, yeah,
- 21:26Speaker 5: I got a will, I'm leaving everything to Ena. Something happened,
- 21:29Speaker 5: and then it seemed like two months after that, he's like, yeah,
- 21:33Speaker 5: Millstone because she's a so yeah, that's how he Yeah.
- 21:39Speaker 10: Was he ever talking about leaving Ena?
- 21:41Speaker 5: Yes, Okay, you know I'm going to get this money
- 21:44Speaker 5: and leave her, get my own place, so go back
- 21:46Speaker 5: to California.
- 21:48Speaker 6: Okay, I met her son last night. Okay, her Sunday.
- 21:51Speaker 10: I'm tyrish his son. I'm well, that's okay.
- 21:55Speaker 6: He flewent.
- 21:57Speaker 3: He came up to my apartment.
- 21:59Speaker 10: But as she's leaving, she came up knocked on my
- 22:03Speaker 10: door when he was up.
- 22:04Speaker 6: Yeah, I did get him.
- 22:06Speaker 5: I think she was nervous that it was like she
- 22:09Speaker 5: was he was up there, and then she's like, I just.
- 22:13Speaker 10: Want to let you know I found the will papers.
- 22:15Speaker 10: So she's been in front of you though that she
- 22:17Speaker 10: will Yes, yep.
- 22:19Speaker 3: Aina clearly had become obsessed with the idea that she
- 22:23Speaker 3: was about to live the life of her dreams with
- 22:25Speaker 3: Steve's inheritance, But after rumors of Steve leaving her, it
- 22:29Speaker 3: seems Aina became terrified that she might not receive the
- 22:32Speaker 3: funds and will be stuck with her depressive living conditions.
- 22:36Speaker 3: It's now become obvious how these events and Steve's strange
- 22:41Speaker 3: death could be correlated to one another. However, as Rebecca
- 22:44Speaker 3: had stated herself, she was a nosy neighbor looking for
- 22:47Speaker 3: any rumors or conspiracy theories to help solve the neighborhood drama.
- 22:51Speaker 3: I've also cut out over forty minutes of completely false
- 22:54Speaker 3: information Rebecca gave to detectives, which certainly doesn't add to
- 22:58Speaker 3: her authenticity. In order to further confirm the accuracy of
- 23:02Speaker 3: these claims, two more reliable sources would be brought in
- 23:05Speaker 3: the following day. Steve's son Ryan and Billy Burke had
- 23:09Speaker 3: If anyone would be able to give proper insight into
- 23:12Speaker 3: Steve's life, it would be these two, as they were
- 23:14Speaker 3: by far the closest people to Steve.
- 23:17Speaker 12: We're assigned the kids of your dad's passing. You're really
- 23:23Speaker 12: the only next of Kim that maybe had a relationship
- 23:27Speaker 12: with your dad.
- 23:28Speaker 6: It sounds like, yeah, okay, did you ever talk to
- 23:30Speaker 6: you about you now when you guys talked to last.
- 23:33Speaker 7: Year, Yeah, he was talking about how he was getting
- 23:37Speaker 7: a large sum of money and he kind of just
- 23:40Speaker 7: wanted to leave her.
- 23:41Speaker 6: Because she didn't really have a job and was like
- 23:44Speaker 6: leaching off the th did Steve ever talk about leaving head?
- 23:52Speaker 6: She was.
- 23:52Speaker 7: She talked about boys and Steve and me because we're
- 23:57Speaker 7: always together, and she didn't like it. I don't know
- 24:01Speaker 7: how much it was. Is supposed to be his way
- 24:04Speaker 7: of arenel money. It was like twenty something million. Best
- 24:11Speaker 7: thing you can do is get on the plane and
- 24:14Speaker 7: don't look back. Yeah, so that's the best thing you
- 24:18Speaker 7: can do.
- 24:19Speaker 3: Almost every piece of information the detectives receive leads straight
- 24:23Speaker 3: to Aina as the killer. It also makes sense why
- 24:26Speaker 3: Aina hated Billy and Steve's son so much, as they
- 24:29Speaker 3: knew far more information than she would have liked about
- 24:32Speaker 3: the inheritance and her schemes to obtain it. These interviews
- 24:36Speaker 3: wouldn't last long, as detectives got all the information they
- 24:39Speaker 3: needed from the two and could directly confront Aino with it.
- 24:43Speaker 3: But before leaving, they would break disturbing news to Ryan,
- 24:48Speaker 3: which would make this case even more of a terrible tragedy.
- 24:53Speaker 12: Oh this inheritance now, thinking that's the same thing we're thinking,
- 25:00Speaker 12: which I mean, I know they said, I'm sure, but
- 25:04Speaker 12: by all counts of looking at it, it looks like
- 25:06Speaker 12: it's a scam, looks like it's a I mean different
- 25:10Speaker 12: thoughts in it and things and so, and the fact
- 25:13Speaker 12: that they're doing goner.
- 25:15Speaker 10: Several times change showed up to their work.
- 25:18Speaker 8: And all the emails that they tried to send back
- 25:22Speaker 8: to the center of Lodi Mills had always came back unglovable.
- 25:27Speaker 3: The inheritance was a scam. Steve had lived for the
- 25:31Speaker 3: past seven years under the impression that if he just
- 25:34Speaker 3: patiently waited living through his terrible living conditions, he would
- 25:38Speaker 3: come out with more money than he could dream of
- 25:40Speaker 3: and finally enjoy life. Even worse was that this very
- 25:45Speaker 3: scam that stagnated his life for years may have been
- 25:49Speaker 3: the cause of his very own death. With such a
- 25:54Speaker 3: pity of a case, detectives would go on to interview
- 25:57Speaker 3: a handful of other suspects in order to get as
- 26:00Speaker 3: much information as they possibly could to help break down
- 26:03Speaker 3: Aina's defense, and after multiple days of interviews, the day
- 26:07Speaker 3: finally came to confront Aina with everything they've gathered. But
- 26:12Speaker 3: despite all this evidence against her, officers knew they would
- 26:15Speaker 3: have a hard time prosecuting Aina without a confession or
- 26:18Speaker 3: incriminating statements, and that's exactly what they were determined to get.
- 26:23Speaker 3: Inside this cut down, one and a half hour interview.
- 26:26Speaker 3: You'll see some of the most clever interrogation tactics I've
- 26:30Speaker 3: ever shown on this channel, slowly dismantling Aina's story until
- 26:35Speaker 3: all she has left is an incoherent string of lives.
- 26:42Speaker 10: So, like I said, we have been just talking to everyone.
- 26:46Speaker 9: Like Billy Ross, everybody the kind of just new Steve,
- 26:50Speaker 9: just to get an idea.
- 26:51Speaker 10: What was going on live so us or in our relationship?
- 26:57Speaker 6: Okay, how long had you guys been together for junior?
- 27:00Speaker 9: Okay?
- 27:00Speaker 6: Where did you guys meet home? On shelter in in
- 27:06Speaker 6: North Dakota, Washington, in Washington. Okay.
- 27:09Speaker 3: The detectives would go on to get more information about
- 27:11Speaker 3: Aina and Steve's early relationship, but it wouldn't last long
- 27:15Speaker 3: before I know, would start conspiring against Billy and others
- 27:19Speaker 3: she wanted to paint as suspects.
- 27:22Speaker 6: And I'm begging him, just you know, stay away. We've
- 27:25Speaker 6: We've gotten into fights to stay away friend, Billy and Lynn. Okay.
- 27:31Speaker 11: I don't like calling people nasty, and I've seen basing
- 27:35Speaker 11: them worse than Steve because he's tall and mean looking.
- 27:38Speaker 6: People were intimidated by him, Okay, just by a look.
- 27:42Speaker 6: So what why.
- 27:43Speaker 10: Would you want him to stay away from Billy and.
- 27:45Speaker 6: Lynn because they're really really nasty people.
- 27:48Speaker 11: Elanie's breaking into places. I knew they did more of
- 27:56Speaker 11: the pot, you know, smoking more of the pots.
- 28:00Speaker 10: Do you smoke more than marijuana? No, he's allergic to one.
- 28:04Speaker 6: Okay.
- 28:05Speaker 10: Did he use other drugs?
- 28:07Speaker 6: Uh? Not.
- 28:08Speaker 10: For the longest time.
- 28:11Speaker 6: Was he using? Was using?
- 28:14Speaker 5: No?
- 28:14Speaker 6: Okay?
- 28:15Speaker 11: So he didn't after that, After he got the MAX
- 28:18Speaker 11: the last time, Yep, He's like, screw this, I'm gonna
- 28:22Speaker 11: just do what I want and want what I want.
- 28:25Speaker 6: Okay.
- 28:26Speaker 10: So that's when he started using, I think.
- 28:27Speaker 6: So okay.
- 28:29Speaker 3: This would be the first of Aina's lies during this interrogation.
- 28:34Speaker 3: She knew Steve had been using long before the incident
- 28:36Speaker 3: she described, but in order to make Billy seem like
- 28:39Speaker 3: the villain in their lives, she wanted to make it
- 28:41Speaker 3: seem as though he was the reason for Steve's drug use.
- 28:45Speaker 3: Take note of Aina's body language. While she clearly lies,
- 28:48Speaker 3: she glances up and avoids eye contact, constantly, fidgets and
- 28:52Speaker 3: scratches her skin, and most notably, stutters and slurs on
- 28:56Speaker 3: her speech as she tries to make up a story.
- 28:59Speaker 3: Keep this in mind for the rest of the interrogation
- 29:01Speaker 3: and you'll be able to accurately point out when Aina
- 29:04Speaker 3: isn't telling the truth. But now the police would ask
- 29:07Speaker 3: her perhaps the most intriguing question, what exactly did she
- 29:11Speaker 3: plan to do with the inheritance money?
- 29:14Speaker 6: So?
- 29:14Speaker 10: How when did he find out about this inheritance?
- 29:17Speaker 6: I want to say, three months ago, four months ago?
- 29:20Speaker 6: So what is the inheritance?
- 29:22Speaker 9: I know he had shown if that first day of
- 29:24Speaker 9: Lieutenant Akin I came, you showed us kind of that
- 29:27Speaker 9: letter that was on Steve's phone.
- 29:30Speaker 10: Is that that's the inheritance? That was the letter, Okay?
- 29:34Speaker 11: And he was talking to an actual lawyer, I guess,
- 29:38Speaker 11: okay from London.
- 29:40Speaker 10: So this lawyer reached out to him and said.
- 29:43Speaker 5: I guess I don't even know how he.
- 29:44Speaker 10: Found out about it.
- 29:45Speaker 5: He just it just.
- 29:48Speaker 10: Weird and he was reading that the money, was it.
- 29:52Speaker 11: Cursed or whatever every single person that went for the
- 29:56Speaker 11: Riley money or there Yeah, even those twenty one years.
- 30:01Speaker 6: It passed away.
- 30:03Speaker 3: Clearly, Ana is running out of resources to take suspicion
- 30:07Speaker 3: off herself, and the detectives won't take long before making
- 30:10Speaker 3: her abundantly aware of how horrible of a liar she is.
- 30:15Speaker 3: But for now, they'd like to get some more information
- 30:17Speaker 3: on this inheritance, and if I know, would admit to
- 30:21Speaker 3: trying to claim it all for herself.
- 30:23Speaker 6: How much money was it?
- 30:25Speaker 5: It ended up it was supposedly seventeen million, seventeen.
- 30:31Speaker 2: Million, five hundred thousand, so, but.
- 30:34Speaker 11: It was all the property sold off. It ended up
- 30:37Speaker 11: being thirty seven.
- 30:39Speaker 6: So there is cash and the properties versu Okay.
- 30:44Speaker 10: So I gave all the information supposed to be coming from.
- 30:47Speaker 10: Who was the family.
- 30:48Speaker 11: Member Marcus something?
- 30:50Speaker 6: Riley was the brother or uncle? That was an uncle?
- 30:56Speaker 10: Did he live in Ireland?
- 30:59Speaker 6: Okay?
- 31:00Speaker 10: How does it get to Is it starting to be that.
- 31:02Speaker 6: The lawyer is starting to give him.
- 31:05Speaker 10: Like a time that he's coming to mine not.
- 31:08Speaker 11: Yeah, that's pretty much one. He kept saying, I'm going
- 31:11Speaker 11: to show up at this time, and Steve would write
- 31:15Speaker 11: down there and he wasn't there, and then he get
- 31:18Speaker 11: the email autport so he was could come and tell
- 31:21Speaker 11: later to later.
- 31:24Speaker 3: The detectives would spend the next twenty five minutes trying
- 31:28Speaker 3: to understand Aina's timeline for the day they planned to
- 31:31Speaker 3: receive the inheritance. Whenever she gave a time for when
- 31:34Speaker 3: the group went to the airport. She would conveniently change
- 31:37Speaker 3: that time entirely just a few minutes later, but one
- 31:40Speaker 3: detail would stay the same. Unlike her original claims to
- 31:44Speaker 3: officers on the day of the murder, she would insist
- 31:47Speaker 3: that Steve had never gone to the airport, but rather
- 31:50Speaker 3: Wes had gone instead to represent Steve. This was confusing,
- 31:56Speaker 3: but Aina's reason as to why Steve couldn't make it
- 31:59Speaker 3: to the airport would make just as little sense.
- 32:02Speaker 11: Because he was drinking beer all day.
- 32:04Speaker 6: He was working in the garage. He was spray painting
- 32:06Speaker 6: his truck.
- 32:07Speaker 11: You know, with the doors and the and the windows closed,
- 32:12Speaker 11: barely drinking any water.
- 32:14Speaker 10: So he consumed almost a case of beer.
- 32:17Speaker 6: In Oh, did drink more than that?
- 32:20Speaker 3: Pay attention to Aina here, she's carefully crafting a story
- 32:23Speaker 3: to deflect suspicion. But the detectives came prepared.
- 32:27Speaker 10: I've seen him, Okay, so good on that day.
- 32:29Speaker 6: Yeah, it was a case.
- 32:30Speaker 9: Spirit from probably six or seven in the morning until
- 32:35Speaker 9: two in the afternoons, so five to six hours.
- 32:38Speaker 6: Then turn right, Oh, okay, did you drink anything else?
- 32:45Speaker 10: Uh?
- 32:46Speaker 1: Just a glass of water and his teeth.
- 32:49Speaker 6: I made iced tea because he begged for rice.
- 32:51Speaker 3: Tea, Steve had no traces of alcohol in his system
- 32:55Speaker 3: the day of his death, proven by a blood test
- 32:57Speaker 3: and toxicology, so detectives no. Clearly Aina is lying through
- 33:02Speaker 3: her teeth.
- 33:02Speaker 9: So I just have a lot of concerns here, okay,
- 33:05Speaker 9: And I'm just going to be honest. Video, you told
- 33:07Speaker 9: the paramedics when they were there that morning or afternoon
- 33:10Speaker 9: that he had been drinking till five in the morning,
- 33:12Speaker 9: that he'd been can drinking alcohol.
- 33:14Speaker 10: That's on body cam.
- 33:15Speaker 6: Okay.
- 33:15Speaker 9: You said he was drinking all day of the day
- 33:17Speaker 9: before and that he drank his last drink at five am.
- 33:20Speaker 10: Okay, And now you're telling me, Tea, that's not what
- 33:23Speaker 10: you say on this video.
- 33:24Speaker 6: Okay.
- 33:25Speaker 10: I want to see this video.
- 33:26Speaker 6: Okay.
- 33:26Speaker 10: Well, I'm not going to show you the body camp.
- 33:28Speaker 10: I'm just telling you that that's what's on there.
- 33:30Speaker 9: There's reports that West came to the house that morning,
- 33:35Speaker 9: and you said that Steve was at the walking clinic.
- 33:38Speaker 10: He wasn't. Wasn't Steve didn't want to see West anymore, Okay.
- 33:42Speaker 10: But Steve wasn't at the walking clinic.
- 33:44Speaker 6: He was at the hospital.
- 33:45Speaker 10: He wasn't at the hospital, but he.
- 33:47Speaker 6: Just left with the ambulance when West showed up there.
- 33:52Speaker 10: That's not what's been reported to us.
- 33:54Speaker 6: This was their prior to the time of Sam proved
- 33:57Speaker 6: that I want Okay, that's fine.
- 34:00Speaker 3: Realizing she's running out of options to defend herself, and
- 34:03Speaker 3: with the detective's closing in, resorts to something surprisingly clever
- 34:08Speaker 3: as a last ditch effort, asking for a lawyer.
- 34:13Speaker 5: Being arrested.
- 34:14Speaker 6: Nope, you're being arrested. We're just talking.
- 34:16Speaker 10: So but if you want, if you want a layer,
- 34:18Speaker 10: we can stop talking right now.
- 34:19Speaker 6: That's fine. But I'm telling you the god honest truth.
- 34:24Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 34:25Speaker 6: We're not happy.
- 34:26Speaker 2: I wasn't there.
- 34:27Speaker 3: I wish I was there.
- 34:28Speaker 4: I wish I was.
- 34:29Speaker 5: With him every second the day. I wish I wanted
- 34:33Speaker 5: every single But I'm not his God damn.
- 34:36Speaker 10: Mom, you asked her lawyer in a word? Is gonna
- 34:40Speaker 10: end this now?
- 34:41Speaker 5: Okay?
- 34:42Speaker 6: I'm talking anymore? All right? Are so unbelievable? M fucking where.
- 34:54Speaker 3: The second I realized the detective saw right through her story,
- 34:59Speaker 3: she folded under the pressure and insisted on a lawyer.
- 35:03Speaker 3: Aina had finally realized her game was over. Following this interrogation,
- 35:09Speaker 3: Aino would roam free while detectives scrambled for concrete evidence
- 35:12Speaker 3: that she had poisoned Steve. Aina would continue fighting for
- 35:16Speaker 3: her innocence, making more deranged theories such as Steve drinking
- 35:21Speaker 3: the anti freeze out of shame, that the lawyer was
- 35:23Speaker 3: a fraud, or that she had too been poisoned just
- 35:26Speaker 3: months prior. Unfortunately for her, police managed to file a
- 35:30Speaker 3: search warrant on apartment nine to one two A, finding
- 35:34Speaker 3: multiple alarming items, an old windex bottle without a cap
- 35:39Speaker 3: containing a bright green liquid suspected to be anti freeze,
- 35:43Speaker 3: as well as a COR's light bottle containing anti freeze
- 35:46Speaker 3: found in the garage Steve had been working in that morning.
- 35:50Speaker 3: This exact COR's light bottle was what Aina used to
- 35:54Speaker 3: poison Steve with. Antifreeze contains ethelene glacol, an ingredient that
- 35:59Speaker 3: may the liquid taste sweet. By mixing this with tea,
- 36:03Speaker 3: Steve was fully unable to tell this fatal substance apart
- 36:07Speaker 3: from his typical morning tea. Additionally, by hiding the liquids
- 36:10Speaker 3: in the dark cores light bottle, Steve was unable to
- 36:13Speaker 3: see the bright green color of this drink. With all
- 36:17Speaker 3: of this newfound completely incriminating evidence, as well as the
- 36:22Speaker 3: numerous lies and false claims Aina had told law enforcement.
- 36:26Speaker 3: She would finally be arrested on October thirtieth, twenty twenty four.
- 36:33Speaker 1: I know, please lock up the house, will up the house.
- 36:40Speaker 8: I'll give you the.
- 36:44Speaker 1: Why me.
- 36:54Speaker 4: We like you some of the cigarette.
- 36:55Speaker 1: Give me decent.
- 36:58Speaker 9: With you.
- 37:00Speaker 1: I've never got arresting before like this.
- 37:03Speaker 8: I've never done anything.
- 37:04Speaker 1: I haven't done anything.
- 37:06Speaker 2: It seems like I'm a easy stick.
- 37:10Speaker 11: No I am.
- 37:13Speaker 1: If I was gonna kill him, I would have killed
- 37:16Speaker 1: them the day life of me.
- 37:18Speaker 11: And I found out you were doing drugs, I'm just
- 37:21Speaker 11: gonna grab follow us, and I would have done it physically,
- 37:24Speaker 11: not physically.
- 37:26Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm a woman.
- 37:30Speaker 8: Nobody out here to watch the dogs, just you.
- 37:32Speaker 4: No friends or anything. You have any friends at work
- 37:35Speaker 4: that would take them. We just don't want them to
- 37:38Speaker 4: die there, all right?
- 37:40Speaker 2: Why we don't know.
- 37:43Speaker 1: So we'll have our officers grab the dogs.
- 37:44Speaker 4: We'll put a hold hold on them, all right.
- 37:49Speaker 3: Six months following Ana's arrest, she would sit down in
- 37:52Speaker 3: the courtroom for one final time, accepting a plea deal
- 37:56Speaker 3: for the murder of Steve Riley. It had been a
- 37:59Speaker 3: matter of principle for Aina throughout this entire investigation, staying
- 38:03Speaker 3: true to her word, no matter how delusional it sounded.
- 38:06Speaker 3: But in this courtroom, Ayina was left with no choice
- 38:10Speaker 3: but to finally confess. Aina Theachnoyer was charged with murder
- 38:16Speaker 3: intentional knowing or with extreme indifference of an adult victim.
- 38:20Speaker 3: She was sentenced to life in prison. Her first chance
- 38:23Speaker 3: at probation will come in twenty fifty
