2:18
Speaker 2: like something something weird. There's damage to the vehicle, including
2:23
Speaker 2: one of the windows. It was just a conspicuously placed
2:28
Speaker 2: vehicle in a weird condition.
2:34
Speaker 1: But this is three or four miles so it could
2:36
Speaker 1: be waged that. Yeah, I'll watch the road.
2:40
Speaker 7: It looks are.
2:42
Speaker 5: There is.
2:46
Speaker 3: And it took a little bit of time for the
2:48
Speaker 3: patrol officers to locate the vehicle.
2:58
Speaker 1: Okay, we don't know if I'm talking about it. They
2:59
Speaker 1: got to your front clear, really not a good way
3:01
Speaker 1: to approach it. But let's try to approach from the back.
3:03
Speaker 1: So we'll go down here and up and around right.
3:04
Speaker 3: Okay, the vehicle was essentially stuck on a dirt road.
3:10
Speaker 1: You want to pass through your side. I got the
3:13
Speaker 1: drivers watch crossfire a right, just in case, don't see
3:18
Speaker 1: anybody around.
3:21
Speaker 2: Check the trunk quick, nobody in there?
3:27
Speaker 5: Quick, nobody's in here?
3:31
Speaker 2: Are people's clear?
3:33
Speaker 3: They were able to reach through the window and access
3:38
Speaker 3: the trunk.
3:40
Speaker 1: I don't know what, but see if it's into Yeah,
3:42
Speaker 1: that's right there by. You see that, go ahead and
3:44
Speaker 1: pop it.
3:45
Speaker 3: It was filled with betting and towels.
3:50
Speaker 2: Hey, uh, I think we got something else.
3:55
Speaker 6: Something doesn't look right.
3:56
Speaker 2: Right there.
3:57
Speaker 6: What yep?
3:58
Speaker 2: Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, Wait a minute,
4:02
Speaker 2: wait a minute.
4:02
Speaker 6: I'm down, I'm down. I smelled something, yeah with it.
4:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a body, That's what I'm thinking.
4:13
Speaker 3: Yeah. And then that's what the officers meet, the grizzly
4:16
Speaker 3: discovery of a human body.
4:20
Speaker 2: It's not Trump around here anymore.
4:22
Speaker 1: It's a crime scenier, a copy.
4:24
Speaker 2: Okay.
4:24
Speaker 7: We were just able to access to the trunk.
4:30
Speaker 3: I think they might have wanted to take it further
4:32
Speaker 3: in there to ditch it, and they got stuck, and
4:34
Speaker 3: they're just like, this is where it's going to get left.
4:36
Speaker 5: At the fact that the car was left abandoned in
4:40
Speaker 5: the desert tells investigators that whoever left the car there
4:45
Speaker 5: is likely involved or has some connection to the homicide.
4:49
Speaker 1: To begin with, Obviously they didn't walk out of here,
4:51
Speaker 1: so there was another vehicle.
4:53
Speaker 6: There was a good thing we checked the trunk then, but.
4:56
Speaker 5: If you're also willing to leave a car in a
4:58
Speaker 5: desert area, that shows you pretty desperate to get out
5:01
Speaker 5: of town.
5:06
Speaker 3: The primary focus that night was to get the body
5:10
Speaker 3: out of the vehicle and do what we could to identify,
5:16
Speaker 3: and the vehicle was towed to the Las Vegas Metropolitan
5:19
Speaker 3: Police Department crime lab. The body was extracted from the
5:22
Speaker 3: trunk and in one of the pockets with a credit
5:27
Speaker 3: card or debit card that had his name, Thomas Bouchard.
5:35
Speaker 2: What was most unique about this was that the person
5:38
Speaker 2: in the trunk was not the typical victim that we
5:41
Speaker 2: run across, those associated with gambling, gambling debts, or those
5:46
Speaker 2: associated with the casinos. Instead, it was a psychiatrist from California,
5:52
Speaker 2: a pretty well renowned psychiatrist, doctor Thomas Bouchard.
6:04
Speaker 5: Thomas Burchard lived in Monterey. It's one of the most
6:09
Speaker 5: expensive places to live in California, and by all accounts,
6:14
Speaker 5: he was very successful.
6:17
Speaker 3: And very quickly we found out that he had been
6:20
Speaker 3: reported missing by woman by the name of Judy Earp.
6:26
Speaker 7: One of the reasons that I knew something was seriously
6:29
Speaker 7: wrong when Tom did not come home is I knew
6:32
Speaker 7: he had patients scheduled the next day in the whole week.
6:38
Speaker 7: In all of the nearly twenty years that I knew him,
6:42
Speaker 7: he only missed work twice. I was extremely worried for his.
6:49
Speaker 6: Well being. Tom and I met in the early two thousands.
7:05
Speaker 7: I was in the middle of a divorce and Tom
7:09
Speaker 7: had just finalized his divorce and we got together. He
7:15
Speaker 7: was primarily a children's psychiatrist and he had been practicing
7:20
Speaker 7: there for over forty years. He just had a very
7:25
Speaker 7: friendly personality that people could relate to, and he was
7:30
Speaker 7: very well known and well liked in the Monterey community.
7:44
Speaker 2: Doctor Burchard didn't have any known enemies. He wasn't associated
7:47
Speaker 2: with any mobs or gangs. He didn't have any of
7:51
Speaker 2: those things you typically find. It's somebody that ends up
7:53
Speaker 2: in the trunk of a vehicle in the desert here
7:55
Speaker 2: in Las Vegas.
7:57
Speaker 3: And the vehicle contained a tremendous amount of evidence. In
8:01
Speaker 3: addition to Thomas Boschard's body, there was betting, there were
8:07
Speaker 3: bath towels, there were nitral gloves. Some of those nitrol
8:12
Speaker 3: gloves had apparent blood on them, and there was a
8:15
Speaker 3: baseball bat that was also recovered from the trunk area.
8:20
Speaker 3: There was also apparent bloodstains inside the cab of the
8:24
Speaker 3: vehicle that was indicative that there was violence or violence
8:27
Speaker 3: had occurred to mister Burchard there.
8:31
Speaker 2: So, I've seen a lot of autopsies, and this one
8:33
Speaker 2: was particularly brutal. The amount of lacerations on doctor Burchard
8:40
Speaker 2: was something you don't typically see in a murder.
8:43
Speaker 3: Mister Burchard primarily had injuries which were blunt force trauma
8:48
Speaker 3: and sharp force trauma to his head and neck area.
8:53
Speaker 2: So obviously the next steps are finding out how to
8:56
Speaker 2: be end up killed dead in the back of the
8:59
Speaker 2: trunk and two, whose vehicle is this?
9:05
Speaker 3: My partner? And I asked our fellow detectives to reach
9:08
Speaker 3: out to miss her, and.
9:11
Speaker 7: I see that it's a Las Vegas number that was
9:14
Speaker 7: calling me.
9:16
Speaker 3: The detectives purported themselves intentionally to be missing persons detectives
9:23
Speaker 3: as opposed to homicide detectives because miss irp at this
9:27
Speaker 3: particular time as a potential suspect in mister Bouchard's death.
9:34
Speaker 3: She told us he left to come to Las Vegas
9:36
Speaker 3: on March first, with the expectation that mister Burchard was
9:39
Speaker 3: supposed to return to California on March fourth and did not.
9:44
Speaker 3: She also indicated in her missing person report that he
9:48
Speaker 3: was in the company of a woman by the name
9:50
Speaker 3: of Kelsey Turner.
9:54
Speaker 2: Kelsey Turner was somebody that had a huge social media presence,
9:58
Speaker 2: a number of followers on his Oh my god, why.
10:02
Speaker 3: Did you document this night, this terrible, terrible.
10:07
Speaker 2: She was somebody that modeled as well and was making
10:10
Speaker 2: money off.
10:11
Speaker 6: Of her looks.
10:12
Speaker 3: Right, do you have a woman who has a Bad
10:16
Speaker 3: Barbie persona who is an influencer and a model, then
10:21
Speaker 3: you have a well known, well regarded child psychiatrist. He
10:27
Speaker 3: Missterrup was quite candid about the relationship, obviously a relationship
10:31
Speaker 3: that she did not like.
10:36
Speaker 8: When police put in the name Kelsey Turner, they find
10:39
Speaker 8: an Instagram handle called bad Barbie And if you look
10:43
Speaker 8: at it, you see this wall of photos of a
10:45
Speaker 8: beautiful woman in sexy poses and they're self generated, so
10:48
Speaker 8: it looks like most of them she either took herself
10:51
Speaker 8: or she instructed somebody to take. She's trying to appeal
10:53
Speaker 8: to male followers on Instagram, who are most likely to
10:56
Speaker 8: engage with this kind of content. The problem with social
10:58
Speaker 8: media always is that it doesn't I mean, you can
11:00
Speaker 8: directly translate that into earnings, and so there's still a
11:03
Speaker 8: question here of how is she making her money.
11:06
Speaker 2: Kelsey, like a lot of people, was putting on a
11:09
Speaker 2: lifestyle on social media that didn't exactly match for real life.
11:15
Speaker 2: She was a single mother, she had a child that
11:17
Speaker 2: she was living with. She had another child that she
11:19
Speaker 2: wasn't living with, but she was very important to her
11:23
Speaker 2: that she projected an image of this partying lifestyle, luxurious
11:27
Speaker 2: lifestyle out here in Las Vegas.
11:38
Speaker 3: We met a really nice super lady with some starburst
11:40
Speaker 3: in her card.
11:41
Speaker 8: She was a sweetheart.
11:44
Speaker 7: All of her money was frozen in the bank for
11:48
Speaker 7: something she didn't do. That seems to be her catchphrase.
11:52
Speaker 7: She contacted him saying that she needed someone to co
11:57
Speaker 7: sign a lease for her husband was abusing her and
12:02
Speaker 7: she had two small children. She wanted to leave him,
12:07
Speaker 7: but she would be homeless if she left her abusive husband.
12:14
Speaker 7: She said that she was a successful model and she
12:17
Speaker 7: could pay rent, but she just didn't have a credit
12:20
Speaker 7: history to qualify. I said, Tom, this is like a
12:27
Speaker 7: thirty five hundred dollars house. And said, well, she's going
12:33
Speaker 7: to pay the rent and everything, and I'm just co
12:35
Speaker 7: signing the lease.
12:37
Speaker 6: I was suspicious.
12:42
Speaker 8: Now, yeah, oh, this feels a bit like a romance scam.
12:47
Speaker 8: You've got this younger woman who is engaging online with
12:50
Speaker 8: as much older man. They're sending messages back and forth,
12:52
Speaker 8: and she quick quickly asked for money, which is not
12:55
Speaker 8: something you normally do with someone you're interested in romantically online.
12:59
Speaker 8: And then it's also the SOB story background, which is
13:02
Speaker 8: really common to romance scams. Anybody can fall for romance scams.
13:07
Speaker 8: It's not people who are low aqu we know. I
13:09
Speaker 8: mean in his case, Thomas Bouchard is an intelligent man.
13:12
Speaker 8: It's that people craft a narrative that they know the
13:15
Speaker 8: other person wants to hear, and then they take advantage
13:17
Speaker 8: of it.
13:21
Speaker 3: The relationship is peculiar, to say the least, and you
13:26
Speaker 3: struggle to find a reasonable explanation as to why these
13:31
Speaker 3: two are involved with each other so quickly.
13:36
Speaker 7: Tom always felt the financial difficulties was one of the
13:41
Speaker 7: main problems for most people, so he would generously give
13:47
Speaker 7: money to whomever he thought needed it.
13:50
Speaker 2: Doctor Bouchard clearly felt like he was doing something to
13:54
Speaker 2: help Kelsey and who knows what he was getting.
13:56
Speaker 4: In her tracks, Bouchard is described as a man who
14:03
Speaker 4: is incredibly generous, somebody who likes charitable giving. But I
14:09
Speaker 4: think that we have to be real here. There are
14:13
Speaker 4: many ways to give to charity, and in actual fact,
14:18
Speaker 4: Dr Bouchard reaches out to young attractive women and he
14:24
Speaker 4: pays them. So I think that it's a case of well,
14:28
Speaker 4: who's exploiting who. As this story starts to.
14:31
Speaker 5: Progress in the investigation, the detectives figure out Kelsey Turner
14:40
Speaker 5: is connected to the car. She required the car, the Mercedes,
14:44
Speaker 5: when she was living in California. The payments were made
14:49
Speaker 5: by Thomas Burchard on Kelsey's behalf. The fact that his
14:55
Speaker 5: body is in the trunk of her car put her
14:58
Speaker 5: front and center in terms of an investigation.
15:13
Speaker 8: Kelsey Turner was born in nineteen ninety three. She grew
15:17
Speaker 8: up in this small community in Jonesboro, Arkansas. From a
15:23
Speaker 8: young age, she took part in beauty pageants. And I
15:27
Speaker 8: think what this means in terms of her own development,
15:29
Speaker 8: her own psychology is there's off of this critique that
15:32
Speaker 8: beauty pageants can sexualize young girls, and the knock on
15:36
Speaker 8: effects of that I think are poorly understood. She her
15:40
Speaker 8: whole life has particularly been praised from putting herself in
15:42
Speaker 8: revealing outfits on stage for the attention of others and
15:46
Speaker 8: to win money or prizes. And so I think that
15:48
Speaker 8: that will fundamentally shift and shape how you think you
15:53
Speaker 8: should be in the world, who you think is respected,
15:56
Speaker 8: and also what you think are the possibilities in terms
15:58
Speaker 8: of making money from your looks.
16:02
Speaker 4: Kelsey is in a small town and she has got
16:06
Speaker 4: bigger ideas and bigger aspirations, and her looks are what
16:12
Speaker 4: she feels is her ticket out of there. Unfortunately, Kelsey
16:17
Speaker 4: is one of many many pretty girls who want to
16:22
Speaker 4: have careers as glamor models or become actresses. So's she's
16:28
Speaker 4: ten a penny unfortunately, particularly when she gets to California.
16:42
Speaker 3: While we were collecting background information on mister Burchard, we
16:47
Speaker 3: were also communicating with some of his associates and friend.
16:52
Speaker 2: Doctor Burchard was sending thousands of dollars to Kelsey. He
16:56
Speaker 2: paid for her whole life, really, because there's no other
16:59
Speaker 2: in being generated by Kelsey at this time.
17:04
Speaker 5: At various stages in the investigation, people that knew mister
17:07
Speaker 5: Bochard indicated that there was a sexual component to the relationship.
17:22
Speaker 2: Certainly doctor Bouchard was portraying it as a sexual relationship
17:25
Speaker 2: in the text messages.
17:28
Speaker 8: Kelsey moved to California and realized that this dream of
17:30
Speaker 8: being a model probably wasn't going to work out, and
17:34
Speaker 8: so now she's scrambling to find alternative sources of funding,
17:38
Speaker 8: and one way in which pretty girls on the Internet
17:41
Speaker 8: can make money is to sell explicit content, and so
17:44
Speaker 8: she moved into this realm of more hazy relationships with
17:47
Speaker 8: older men, specifically with Thomas Bouchard.
17:50
Speaker 5: I think colloquially you'd say he was her sugar daddy.
17:54
Speaker 6: I knew what Kelsey Turner was doing. I believe that
17:59
Speaker 6: Tom thought that it.
18:02
Speaker 7: Was maybe flattering that this supposed playboy model was, you know,
18:10
Speaker 7: paying attention to him.
18:12
Speaker 6: The bumpy ride.
18:13
Speaker 8: At first, I didn't know if we were going to
18:15
Speaker 8: get through it, but we made it.
18:20
Speaker 4: Between twenty seventeen and twenty nineteen, Tom sends at least
18:26
Speaker 4: three hundred thousand dollars to Kelsey, So wow, that's an.
18:31
Speaker 6: Awful lot of money.
18:33
Speaker 4: You know, if she was being paid by the hour,
18:35
Speaker 4: that is a good hourly rate.
18:47
Speaker 8: The text messages between Kelsey and Thomas Bouchard revealed that
18:51
Speaker 8: there is this push and pull between them where he
18:54
Speaker 8: expresses that he's no longer happy with the financial arrangement.
18:59
Speaker 7: Turned was extremely manipulative, and it got worse and worse
19:05
Speaker 7: and worse. She said she needed a car because her
19:09
Speaker 7: husband took the car and the divorce and it was
19:11
Speaker 7: a BMW and I told Tom this time, I said,
19:13
Speaker 7: do not even put her name on it, you know,
19:16
Speaker 7: keep it in your name, which thankfully he did.
19:21
Speaker 6: And when she didn't.
19:22
Speaker 7: Make the payments on it, he told her that she
19:25
Speaker 7: needed to return it. Well, she wouldn't and she ditched it.
19:30
Speaker 7: And then she managed to take over the lease of
19:34
Speaker 7: a Mercedes, and she sent me a picture of this
19:39
Speaker 7: Mercedes and with an obscene gesture of her middle finger
19:45
Speaker 7: saying that the Mercedes was better than the BMW.
19:52
Speaker 2: Tomba shop.
19:53
Speaker 4: Definitely got more than he boggained full when he contacted
19:57
Speaker 4: Kelsey Turner. She's even mess his girlfriend, So be careful
20:03
Speaker 4: what you wish for. I guess what could have just
20:06
Speaker 4: been a short term transactional relationship has turned into something
20:10
Speaker 4: that is intense and incredibly toxic.
20:17
Speaker 7: I was beginning to suspect that she was a little dangerous.
20:23
Speaker 6: One time when he had gone.
20:26
Speaker 7: Over there, she was taking canned goods out of the
20:30
Speaker 7: kitchen cabinet and throwing them at him.
20:33
Speaker 6: She definitely show violent.
20:35
Speaker 7: Tendencies and in the end he told her he was
20:39
Speaker 7: not going to co sign a renewal. She needed to
20:43
Speaker 7: either move or make gather arrangements with the landlord. And
20:48
Speaker 7: then she texted him back seeing that I was on
20:51
Speaker 7: her list and that if I caused her to be evicted,
20:59
Speaker 7: she was going to kill me.
21:05
Speaker 8: In the next batch of messages, what we see is
21:07
Speaker 8: a real shift in the tone of the messages, and
21:19
Speaker 8: she's now made an explicit threat, and she might have
21:22
Speaker 8: this volatility in her that is also physically threatening, and
21:25
Speaker 8: that within the relationship of Judy and Thomas introduces this
21:29
Speaker 8: additional fear of what is she capable of. And what's
21:33
Speaker 8: in some way surprising is that despite saying to her, oh,
21:38
Speaker 8: I'm not so sure about this anymore, he's unable to
21:41
Speaker 8: completely withdraw from this relationship arrangement that they have and
21:46
Speaker 8: he continues to give her money.
21:48
Speaker 2: I think this is the most politically incorrect I've ever
21:51
Speaker 2: been in an uber.
21:59
Speaker 3: Kelsey had moved to Las Vegas around November of twenty eighteen,
22:04
Speaker 3: so not long before this incident occurred, and was able
22:06
Speaker 3: to get a residence because again mister Bochard was paying
22:09
Speaker 3: for the property.
22:12
Speaker 7: Several times Tom would receive texts from the landlord of
22:16
Speaker 7: the house with complaints from the neighbors the loud parties.
22:22
Speaker 7: So I think the police were over there a lot
22:27
Speaker 7: and at that time was when it was really ramping up.
22:31
Speaker 7: She went from borrowing and never paying back to stealing.
22:37
Speaker 7: She would be out somewhere and say, oh, my credit
22:41
Speaker 7: card got declined for the Uber can you loan me
22:44
Speaker 7: a credit card number? Well, she would keep that and
22:47
Speaker 7: then a few weeks later it would have massive chargers,
22:52
Speaker 7: and then it went from stealing to bank fraud. She
22:58
Speaker 7: manufactured checks, the bank caught it. They were so poorly
23:03
Speaker 7: done that even his name Brischard was not capitalized, but
23:08
Speaker 7: it had her address in Las Vegas on the checks.
23:20
Speaker 5: The detectives worked towards figuring out where the house was.
23:24
Speaker 5: Once they did that, and then from the connection to
23:28
Speaker 5: the car, there was enough evidence to issue at warrant.
23:32
Speaker 3: We were able to prepare a search warrant and we
23:37
Speaker 3: arrived at the residence on Puritan Avenue.
23:43
Speaker 6: Kelsey's not at our house. The house is abandoned.
23:47
Speaker 3: Immediately upon making entry through the garage door, we were
23:51
Speaker 3: able to identify another crime scene. There was evidence of
23:56
Speaker 3: a cleanup. There appeared to have been biological material on
23:59
Speaker 3: the ground and somebody or pee Bull had made an
24:03
Speaker 3: effort to clean it up. There was a very strong
24:06
Speaker 3: chemical smell coming from the garage. One of the two
24:11
Speaker 3: trash bins was filled with what appeared to be ammonia.
24:16
Speaker 3: One of the towels that was folded on the couch
24:19
Speaker 3: was the same pattern as a towel that had been
24:22
Speaker 3: recovered from the trunk of the Mercedes Benz. In one
24:27
Speaker 3: of the bedrooms, there was a door completely missing from
24:31
Speaker 3: the frame, and we had found that door literally broken
24:34
Speaker 3: into two pieces, with one half on the first floor
24:38
Speaker 3: and another half in the garage. Also in that bedroom
24:42
Speaker 3: we found mister Burchard's blood and evidence of a struggle.
24:53
Speaker 6: That was the worst time in my entire life. You know, I.
24:59
Speaker 7: Receive a call from a detective in Las Vegas and
25:05
Speaker 7: they told me that he's deceased, and I just, you know,
25:09
Speaker 7: I just I couldn't accept it. Just no, no, no, no,
25:13
Speaker 7: no no no. I knew immediately who was responsible. I mean,
25:20
Speaker 7: there was no doubt in my mind, and there still
25:23
Speaker 7: is no doubt in my mind, one hundred percent Kelsey
25:25
Speaker 7: Turner is responsible for Tom's murder.
25:30
Speaker 3: As far as the location of miss Turner and anyone
25:34
Speaker 3: else that was associated with the murder, it was unclear
25:37
Speaker 3: where they were at that particular time, So ultimately we
25:40
Speaker 3: issued an arrest warrant for miss Turner.
25:46
Speaker 2: Shortly before March first, Kelsey had reached out to doctor
25:49
Speaker 2: Bichard and as doctor Bachard to.
25:50
Speaker 7: Pay the rent for She had contacted him and told
25:56
Speaker 7: him that her son was sick, she couldn't afford medicine,
26:00
Speaker 7: she was going to get evicted, and he bought a
26:04
Speaker 7: plane ticket.
26:06
Speaker 2: Immediately, Doctor Bichard decides he's going to come and play
26:13
Speaker 2: surprises and out to Kelsey at the house that he's
26:15
Speaker 2: paying for.
26:18
Speaker 7: He calls me from the airport and he said that
26:22
Speaker 7: she was such a pervasive wiar that he needed to
26:25
Speaker 7: see it for himself.
26:27
Speaker 4: This is about him going and trying to figure out
26:32
Speaker 4: in his own mind how he feels about Kelsey and
26:37
Speaker 4: maybe trying to orchestrate a way of saying goodbye to
26:42
Speaker 4: her because he's he's emotionally involved with her.
26:47
Speaker 8: When Thomas Bischard gets on the plane to go and
26:49
Speaker 8: fly to Vegas to see Kelsey, he doesn't know that
26:52
Speaker 8: there's another man in Kelsey's life.
26:57
Speaker 5: John Logan Kennison was Kelsey Turner's new boyfriend. They had
27:01
Speaker 5: only been together a couple of weeks. Kelsey Turner did
27:05
Speaker 5: not want Burchard to know that Logan was her boyfriend,
27:09
Speaker 5: so they were trying to keep that hidden from him.
27:14
Speaker 4: Bob Bobby may well have met bat Ken because Logan
27:20
Speaker 4: is well, he's got everything that you would imagine on
27:23
Speaker 4: the CV. He's been involved in criminal activity, he's involved
27:29
Speaker 4: with drugs, he's involved with gang violence, and yet this
27:35
Speaker 4: is somebody that Kelsey appears to be really really keen on.
27:44
Speaker 2: Within a very short time of and Logan meeting each other,
27:47
Speaker 2: they get magic tattoos, they were at the clubs a lot,
27:51
Speaker 2: a lot of drinking, a lot of partying, and then
27:53
Speaker 2: he's moving into her house.
27:58
Speaker 5: The combination of Kelsey and Logan was really volatile, and
28:03
Speaker 5: either one of them on their own is probably volatile,
28:06
Speaker 5: but if you put them together, it was definitely far
28:10
Speaker 5: far worse. They're just a bad match, and things just
28:14
Speaker 5: got very, very out of hand.
28:17
Speaker 2: It was a very hot and heavy relationship within a
28:20
Speaker 2: matter of weeks, turns into a murder.
28:31
Speaker 5: When Thomas Burchard arrived at the house, he was expecting
28:34
Speaker 5: Kelsey and maybe one other person besides the four year
28:38
Speaker 5: old son. Instead, he also found another couple and Kelsey's friend, Diana.
28:46
Speaker 5: Diana Cleans the house and then acts as a sort
28:50
Speaker 5: of nanny for Kelsey's four year old son.
28:55
Speaker 2: I think doctor Burchard just thought he was paying for
28:58
Speaker 2: Kelsey's lifestyle. I don't think he realized he is paying
29:00
Speaker 2: for multiple people's lifestyles.
29:02
Speaker 3: Mister Burchard had been assisting miss Turner financially over a
29:08
Speaker 3: couple of years, to the tune of about three hundred
29:11
Speaker 3: thousand dollars, and there was a lot of.
29:15
Speaker 5: Partying going on in the house, drinking, some drug use.
29:19
Speaker 5: I think it would have been obvious to Thomas Burchard
29:22
Speaker 5: that this four year old shouldn't be in the situation
29:26
Speaker 5: that he was in.
29:27
Speaker 2: When he arrives, Kelsey has taken off guard, but she
29:32
Speaker 2: quickly adapts. He meets all the roommates, including Logan, who
29:36
Speaker 2: is described as just a friend. Kelsey makes sure everybody
29:41
Speaker 2: knows not to call Logan her boyfriend. She's very concerned
29:45
Speaker 2: that her money train will end if doctor Bichard finds out.
29:58
Speaker 7: The last message the I received from Tom was Saturday.
30:03
Speaker 6: It was March second.
30:04
Speaker 7: I believe at three point thirty three pm says all
30:07
Speaker 7: is well here and I look forward to coming home.
30:12
Speaker 7: In retrospect, I believe he had made the decision to
30:16
Speaker 7: report that Kelsey Turner's son was not in the best
30:20
Speaker 7: the living situation.
30:22
Speaker 5: The environment was just not a place anyone would want
30:26
Speaker 5: a four year old.
30:30
Speaker 7: The text that I received the next day supposedly from him,
30:36
Speaker 7: I immediately suspected wasn't from him. I had texts, why
30:41
Speaker 7: don't you answer your phone? And the response was, I'm
30:45
Speaker 7: out to lunch. I will send it to you in
30:48
Speaker 7: a bit, because I just knew it wasn't his way
30:52
Speaker 7: of talking. It's in at three thirty four, and I said,
30:55
Speaker 7: call me now, or I'm reporting you missing.
31:00
Speaker 3: After our thorough search of the residence, all we knew
31:03
Speaker 3: was there was a vehicle that was several miles away
31:06
Speaker 3: from the residence that contained mister Bouchard's body, and we
31:11
Speaker 3: were beginning to conclude that maybe he was killed in
31:14
Speaker 3: the residence, then loaded into the vehicle and then taken
31:18
Speaker 3: out to the desert to be destroyed along with all
31:21
Speaker 3: of the other evidence.
31:23
Speaker 2: Living in the house was Kelsey Logan and then Opania.
31:27
Speaker 3: And we were able to then follow up on those names,
31:31
Speaker 3: trying to determine if they have any involvement in this
31:35
Speaker 3: particular murder. We began to try to find these individuals
31:47
Speaker 3: through electronic surveillance utilizing the individual's cell phones. The day
31:53
Speaker 3: the media reported a body had been recovered from a vehicle,
31:58
Speaker 3: Kelsey's phone was shut down, along with the phone that
32:03
Speaker 3: mister Kennison was using. The fact that both of their
32:07
Speaker 3: phones were deactivated on March seventh was more than just coincidence.
32:17
Speaker 3: The first person that we were able to arrest was
32:19
Speaker 3: Miss Turner on March twenty first. She was arrested in Stockton, California,
32:25
Speaker 3: and when she was taken into custody, she was quite
32:29
Speaker 3: resigned to the situation. She had been caught, and undoubtedly
32:34
Speaker 3: she was tired from going from place to place and
32:38
Speaker 3: trying to keep a low profile. After Miss Turner was
32:45
Speaker 3: arrested in late March, Miss Paynia reached out to us
32:50
Speaker 3: and arranged for her surrender. Miss Paania was able to
32:55
Speaker 3: provide candid details about what transpired from the moment that
33:00
Speaker 3: mister Burchard arrived in Las Vegas on March first up
33:05
Speaker 3: to the murder.
33:08
Speaker 2: By March third, there's already been tension in the house.
33:11
Speaker 2: Later that evening, doctor Bouchard, along with Kelsey, go to
33:16
Speaker 2: pick up Diana from her job at the Caesar's Palace.
33:20
Speaker 2: On the way back, they get lost, and so they
33:22
Speaker 2: refer to their phones to get the GPS up, and
33:25
Speaker 2: Kelsey gets doctor Bouchard's phone. She starts looking throughout the
33:29
Speaker 2: rest of his phone, and in particular are the text messages,
33:33
Speaker 2: and what Kelsey discovers is a text conversation between Kelsey's
33:38
Speaker 2: mother and doctor Bochard not about Kelsey and the way
33:41
Speaker 2: she's living and some of their concerns about Kelsey's young son.
33:45
Speaker 2: Kelsey sees these text messages and then starts freaking out.
33:49
Speaker 2: She starts punching and even kicking doctor Burchard while he's driving.
33:57
Speaker 8: Attacking somebody while they're driving and you're also in the
33:59
Speaker 8: car just means that you've really lost control over your anger.
34:03
Speaker 8: She's acting out both the stress of the financial dependency,
34:07
Speaker 8: but also the stress of what if I lose my
34:10
Speaker 8: kids and he is going to be responsible, and now
34:14
Speaker 8: I need to do anything that I can to stop
34:16
Speaker 8: that from happening.
34:21
Speaker 2: I'm sure when doctor Richard arrives home after that car confrontation,
34:26
Speaker 2: he's wondering what he's doing with this relationship at all.
34:29
Speaker 2: He's funding a house, he's funding a lifestyle, and he's
34:33
Speaker 2: starting to realize that he's not really getting much out
34:36
Speaker 2: of it. Kelsey, I think, at this time, has to
34:40
Speaker 2: realize that the money train's going to stop. This situation
34:45
Speaker 2: only brings out the worst in every part of Kelsey's personality.
34:50
Speaker 5: At the house, Kelsey Turner announces to people that she
34:55
Speaker 5: has found child pornographic images on Burchard's phone. And of
35:00
Speaker 5: course something that is so offensive tends to rile people
35:05
Speaker 5: up and makes everybody instantly more angry. So I think
35:12
Speaker 5: introducing that label on Burchard to the group put him
35:18
Speaker 5: more in danger than he otherwise was.
35:22
Speaker 3: The release of that information could be damaging to his
35:27
Speaker 3: reputation as a very well known child psychiatrist. A forensic
35:34
Speaker 3: examination of mister Bouchard's iPhone was conducted and there was
35:39
Speaker 3: no evidence of child pornography.
35:46
Speaker 8: Why would Kelsey lie about the fact that he had
35:49
Speaker 8: child pornography on his phone?
35:50
Speaker 6: And I think the.
35:51
Speaker 8: Answer is really simple, and it is literally the worst
35:53
Speaker 8: thing anyone can think of anyone else doing. And she
35:56
Speaker 8: throws it into the room like this catalyst say go
36:00
Speaker 8: get him.
36:04
Speaker 2: Logan's at the house at this point. Diane is at
36:06
Speaker 2: the house. Doctor Bechard retreats to the bedroom that he
36:09
Speaker 2: was staying in at the house, hoping things will calm down,
36:13
Speaker 2: hoping things will settle down. They don't. They only get worse.
36:17
Speaker 2: Kelsey keeps on yelling at him, asking him for his phone.
36:21
Speaker 2: So Doctor Chard gives over his phone. She sees him
36:24
Speaker 2: talking to other women, and so she's getting angrier and
36:28
Speaker 2: angrier and angrier, and of course this triggers Logan.
36:33
Speaker 5: For John Logan Kennison, I think there are two things
36:36
Speaker 5: that play for him.
36:39
Speaker 6: First, he's hearing.
36:41
Speaker 5: That Richard may have child pornography on his phone, and
36:45
Speaker 5: then I think, on top of that, because he has
36:48
Speaker 5: strong feelings for Kelsey, he is more enraged at this situation.
36:56
Speaker 2: Logan takes it upon himself to break through the door,
37:00
Speaker 2: and then Logan goes right into the room and attacks
37:03
Speaker 2: the seventy year old man with a baseball bag. Kelsey
37:07
Speaker 2: is encouraging Logan to continue beating up on doctor Burchard,
37:13
Speaker 2: and Logan was willing to do anything to make Kelsey happy,
37:16
Speaker 2: including violence, and in fact it's Diana who helps break
37:22
Speaker 2: up the fight. Doctor Burchard tells Diana that he's really
37:27
Speaker 2: hurt that he thinks he needs to go to a
37:30
Speaker 2: hospital immediately. So what he does he goes downstairs, goes
37:34
Speaker 2: into the car, and asks for a ride to the hospital.
37:37
Speaker 2: He even tells Logan and Kelsey that I'll tell the
37:41
Speaker 2: police I was mugged. I'm not gonna get you guys
37:43
Speaker 2: in trouble. Diana then goes into the car with doctor
37:47
Speaker 2: Burchard and talks to him for a little while, and
37:51
Speaker 2: doctor Burchard slowly starts to realize that there's no intention
37:54
Speaker 2: to take him to the hospital, and in fact, doctor
37:56
Speaker 2: Burchard tells Diana, they're gonna kill me.
38:04
Speaker 3: According to Miss Panya. She is then directed by Miss
38:07
Speaker 3: Turner to go and clean up or the result of
38:10
Speaker 3: the physical altercation in the bedroom. There were bloodstains on
38:15
Speaker 3: the walls, but then there was a fairly large blood
38:19
Speaker 3: stain that was just outside of the door to that bedroom.
38:24
Speaker 2: Logan and Kelsey at this point are spiraling. They've put
38:27
Speaker 2: themselves in a situation they don't know how to get
38:29
Speaker 2: out of. First, their financial lifestyle is gone, there's probably
38:33
Speaker 2: no question about that. But second, they've brutally injured somebody
38:37
Speaker 2: and they don't know what's going to happen to them.
38:39
Speaker 2: So they're trying to figure out a way out. The
38:42
Speaker 2: next thing that they hear from the car is doctor
38:45
Speaker 2: Bouchard screaming saying I need help. Kelsey gets even angrier
38:51
Speaker 2: and she instructs Logan to knock him out, and Logan complies.
38:57
Speaker 3: This attack was Brutalis in his pistol, whipping mister Burchard
39:03
Speaker 3: as he sat in the back of that Mercedes beds,
39:07
Speaker 3: beating the life.
39:08
Speaker 6: Out of him.
39:10
Speaker 2: The next thing that Diana and Kelsey no is they
39:14
Speaker 2: see Logan coming out with blood on him, saying doctor
39:17
Speaker 2: Burchard is dead.
39:25
Speaker 7: I had an old phone that we kept just as
39:28
Speaker 7: a backup that the cloud would back up all of
39:32
Speaker 7: his photographs to that and the last photograph that was
39:37
Speaker 7: on his phone was early that Sunday morning of someone
39:43
Speaker 7: kicking him. I don't know if he had tried to
39:50
Speaker 7: call nine to one one or he was describbing his
39:53
Speaker 7: phone or something, but I'm pretty sure that's a photograph
39:57
Speaker 7: of when they were killing him.
40:00
Speaker 4: HM.
40:09
Speaker 2: After doctor Burchard is dead, Kelsey, Logan, and even Diana
40:15
Speaker 2: have a big problem.
40:16
Speaker 6: What to do next.
40:18
Speaker 2: They move doctor Burchard's body from the back of the
40:21
Speaker 2: car into the trunk. They haphazardly wrap him in some blankets,
40:26
Speaker 2: and then Logan takes off in the vehicle, not even
40:28
Speaker 2: knowing where to go or what to do with the vehicle. Next,
40:32
Speaker 2: Logan contacts a friend who has to follow him in
40:34
Speaker 2: another car and dumps the body out in the desert
40:52
Speaker 2: something how can we help him?
40:54
Speaker 7: Can you switch him cuffs?
40:55
Speaker 3: And I'll find out.
40:58
Speaker 6: With them.
40:59
Speaker 3: The day that mister Kennison was arrested, mister Kennison declined
41:04
Speaker 3: an interview with us, and because it was so sloppy
41:08
Speaker 3: in the way that they attempted to clean up and
41:11
Speaker 3: dispose of the body, dispose of the evidence, that the
41:14
Speaker 3: best course of action was probably not to say anything
41:18
Speaker 3: to further avoid being implicated in this matter. Logan or
41:22
Speaker 3: John Logan over Loth's officers.
41:25
Speaker 2: I'll be right back.
41:25
Speaker 5: I love you.
41:27
Speaker 3: Got my partner and I concluded that we had the
41:32
Speaker 3: right person and that was involved in this murder.
41:35
Speaker 4: All men, we're not going to.
41:36
Speaker 6: Jail right now. You're going to our headquarters.
41:38
Speaker 1: Some detectivey to talk to you.
41:47
Speaker 5: When Kelsey Turner appeared in court, she seemed to be
41:50
Speaker 5: very aware that there were always cameras present. I think
41:54
Speaker 5: she knew they were there for her, and I think
41:57
Speaker 5: to some extent she liked the attention.
42:01
Speaker 4: When you look at the footage of Kelsey in court,
42:06
Speaker 4: she's aware of the attention that she's receiving and this
42:11
Speaker 4: is her big moment. I think this is the fame
42:14
Speaker 4: that she's always felt that she was destined for her
42:18
Speaker 4: maybe entitled too. You can take the girl out of
42:21
Speaker 4: the pageant, but you can't take the pageant out of
42:24
Speaker 4: the girl.
42:30
Speaker 9: I'm sorry for everything that overcame our cause and everything
42:34
Speaker 9: that they've had to go through these hard timy I
42:37
Speaker 9: hope back to day they'll get the clothing they deserve
42:40
Speaker 9: for between the Paul parts and everybody has better understanding
42:45
Speaker 9: to want everybody to someone move on and gives use.
42:49
Speaker 5: Logan pled guilty to second degree murderer and his sentence
42:56
Speaker 5: will be forty five years, with parole eligibility after eighteen
43:00
Speaker 5: years has been served.
43:02
Speaker 2: Logan was a tool of Kelsey's, and Kelsey, i'm sure,
43:05
Speaker 2: will maintain that she had nothing to do with this,
43:07
Speaker 2: had no idea what Logan was gonna do, but that
43:10
Speaker 2: to me is all part of her manipulation.
43:12
Speaker 6: So you were influenced by Kelsey?
43:14
Speaker 4: Mm hmmm, No, I went overboard.
43:17
Speaker 9: I lost control of my blacked out. I was really
43:21
Speaker 9: I was really missed up on drugs.
43:23
Speaker 2: Are you gonna feel like you took the fall for her? No,
43:26
Speaker 2: I won't.
43:26
Speaker 9: I hope she goes home so you can go with
43:29
Speaker 9: the kids.
43:30
Speaker 3: You're toiler kids too.
43:32
Speaker 9: So she deserves to be her real name. They deserve
43:36
Speaker 9: to have her in their lives.
43:38
Speaker 4: I don't really believe him. I think that he wants
43:41
Speaker 4: Kelsey's approval. This is testimony I think to just how
43:47
Speaker 4: under the skin of these men Kelsey can get a
44:03
Speaker 4: little bit of breaking.
44:04
Speaker 3: News out of the fatic of the trial for former
44:07
Speaker 3: Playboy model Kelsey Turner, now off the book She has
44:11
Speaker 3: Fled Guilty.
44:13
Speaker 2: What Kelsey engages in is what's called an Alfred plea,
44:17
Speaker 2: And in an Alfred plea, what happens is the defendant
44:20
Speaker 2: acknowledges that the state could prove their case beyond a
44:23
Speaker 2: reasonable doubt, but they still maintain their innocence.
44:27
Speaker 5: Kelsey Turner was culpable as what we call legally as
44:30
Speaker 5: an aidor and a better meaning that she encouraged someone
44:34
Speaker 5: else to commit the crime. From the evidence, her DNA
44:38
Speaker 5: is on a bat that suggests that she's involved in
44:41
Speaker 5: striking Thomas Burchard as well.
44:45
Speaker 6: Her sentence is twenty five.
44:47
Speaker 5: Years, with parole eligibility after ten years has been served.
44:53
Speaker 6: Diana.
44:54
Speaker 5: She got a sentence where she got probation as an accessory.
45:00
Speaker 2: To murder Diana. She's not involved in the murder at all,
45:04
Speaker 2: but she's genuinely concerned about her safety given the legs
45:08
Speaker 2: that she saw John and Kelsey go through during the
45:11
Speaker 2: murder of doctor Bishark.
45:13
Speaker 5: But I think the sentences were fair and I don't
45:16
Speaker 5: think Kelsey Turner is likely to change too much in
45:19
Speaker 5: her fundamental nature on how she interacts with people, so
45:23
Speaker 5: I think there will always be an aspect of her
45:26
Speaker 5: probably manipulating who she comes in contact with.
45:36
Speaker 2: Kelsey is a cautionary tale of somebody who thirst for
45:39
Speaker 2: fame and money over anything else. For her, she was
45:43
Speaker 2: so protective of the illusion of success, the illusion of wealth,
45:47
Speaker 2: the illusion of having made it, that she was willing
45:49
Speaker 2: to do anything to protect that illusion, to include murdering
45:53
Speaker 2: doctor Thomas Machark.
