- 0:53Speaker 5: Here.
- 0:53Speaker 6: How are you doing today?
- 0:56Speaker 3: Oh, we did?
- 0:58Speaker 4: What did you think was going to happen?
- 0:59Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 1:01Speaker 4: We're just having, it's basically just an interview.
- 1:03Speaker 3: And here's what I would say to you is, this
- 1:06Speaker 3: is your chance just to have your say.
- 1:08Speaker 5: Okay. Okay?
- 1:09Speaker 4: No one's heard from you for a long time. You good?
- 1:13Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm good.
- 1:17Speaker 4: How long have you been in there?
- 1:20Speaker 6: In where? In here. In prison? Yeah.
- 1:25Speaker 5: 11 years?
- 1:25Speaker 6: 4,289 days.
- 1:26Speaker 4: Wow, you remember them all. That might be my first
- 1:28Speaker 4: question for you.
- 1:30Speaker 3: This man is one of America's most notorious serial killers,
- 1:35Speaker 3: known as the Kansas City Strangler. Lorenzo Gilead was charged
- 1:42Speaker 3: with murdering 13 women. He's serving six life sentences. He
- 1:49Speaker 3: says he's an innocent man. He has never spoken publicly before.
- 1:56Speaker 3: What will Gilead say to the families of the victims
- 2:00Speaker 3: who've been denied answers for decades.
- 2:04Speaker 7: She would never hurt anybody for somebody to do what
- 2:06Speaker 7: they did to her.
- 2:11Speaker 3: If you had the chance to sit opposite him, what
- 2:13Speaker 3: would you say to him? We're not stupid.
- 2:19Speaker 6: We know what you did.
- 2:21Speaker 7: You're the only person walking the face of this earth
- 2:23Speaker 7: that did that. If he had a soul, he would
- 2:26Speaker 7: at least look me in the eye and tell me
- 2:28Speaker 7: he was sorry.
- 2:30Speaker 8: I worked lots of homicide cases, but I mean, as
- 2:34Speaker 8: far as the amount of victims that he had, the
- 2:40Speaker 8: length of time that this went on, no, I can't
- 2:43Speaker 8: think of anybody more despicable.
- 2:46Speaker 9: Than Gillyard.
- 2:51Speaker 10: What Lorenzo did was just stone evil stuff. Lorenzo, what
- 2:57Speaker 10: the hell were you thinking? What drove you to do this?
- 3:00Speaker 10: Where'd this come from? How'd you do that? How'd you
- 3:04Speaker 10: live those two lives?
- 3:30Speaker 3: A few hours before this police interview, Lorenzo Gilliard was
- 3:33Speaker 3: having supper in a diner. He hadn't killed anyone in
- 3:39Speaker 3: over 10 years and thought he'd got away with murder.
- 3:44Speaker 3: Catherine Barry was one of his victims.
- 3:48Speaker 2: And that's the photograph of Catherine Barry, discovered 314 of
- 3:51Speaker 2: 86 at 3001 Central.
- 3:52Speaker 1: Those are your initials on the bottom?
- 3:55Speaker 5: Yes.
- 3:56Speaker 1: Do you know Catherine Barry?
- 3:58Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge, no.
- 3:59Speaker 1: Have you ever seen her?
- 4:01Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge, I wouldn't remember it, no.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Have you ever had physical contact with her?
- 4:09Speaker 3: Not to my knowledge. In March 1986, the naked body
- 4:11Speaker 3: of Catherine Barry, a 34-year-old mother of three, had been
- 4:16Speaker 3: found half-hidden under a sheet of wood. There was a
- 4:23Speaker 3: black stocking knotted tight around her neck. This is where
- 4:29Speaker 3: Catherine Barry's body was found. What was unusual to you
- 4:36Speaker 3: about this scene?
- 4:37Speaker 9: The unusual part of it is she's partially covered. I mean,
- 4:40Speaker 9: she's partially covered with plywood and leaves. The thing is,
- 4:44Speaker 9: is that she's not out in the open like some
- 4:47Speaker 9: of the others were.
- 4:48Speaker 3: And some of the other bodies were deliberately left in
- 4:51Speaker 3: a purposeful pose.
- 4:54Speaker 9: Yeah, most of them were left where they would be found,
- 4:57Speaker 9: and most of it, I mean... To me or to
- 5:00Speaker 9: probably anybody else that would walk up and find that,
- 5:02Speaker 9: it would be shocking.
- 5:05Speaker 3: Twelve of the 13 that he's believed to have killed
- 5:09Speaker 3: were prostitutes who may well have had sex with him
- 5:12Speaker 3: voluntarily before he killed them. But certainly in Catherine Barry's case,
- 5:16Speaker 3: she was not a prostitute. So what do you think
- 5:18Speaker 3: he did to Catherine Barry?
- 5:20Speaker 9: You could assume that she didn't have sex willingly with him.
- 5:24Speaker 4: She was raped and then murdered?
- 5:26Speaker 6: Yes, that would be my assumption.
- 5:29Speaker 1: What kind of monster would do that?
- 5:37Speaker 4: How do you pronounce your surname?
- 5:39Speaker 5: Gilliard.
- 5:39Speaker 3: Gilliard.
- 5:40Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 5:40Speaker 4: Gilliard, yeah.
- 5:45Speaker 3: Lorenzo Gilliard was earning a good salary, working as a
- 5:48Speaker 3: supervisor at a waste management company. He was married and
- 5:54Speaker 3: living a quiet life. No one suspected he was capable
- 6:00Speaker 3: of killing anyone. Let me just ask you, first of all,
- 6:06Speaker 3: what has life been like for you inside prison?
- 6:12Speaker 6: It's different, you know.
- 6:13Speaker 11: I'm used to being able to travel, you know, do
- 6:18Speaker 11: whatever I wanted to. And here, somebody else controls it,
- 6:21Speaker 11: you know.
- 6:22Speaker 3: In the 15 years or so leading up to your arrest...
- 6:27Speaker 3: Your life seemed to be pretty perfect. You were very
- 6:31Speaker 3: happily married to Jackie. You were in a job that
- 6:34Speaker 3: you loved and you were successful. You'd become a supervisor.
- 6:39Speaker 3: You had very nice cars that you took great pride in.
- 6:42Speaker 3: You went on very nice holidays. Life seemed pretty good, Lorenzo,
- 6:47Speaker 3: in that period for you.
- 6:48Speaker 6: Yes, it was. Yes, it was good. I wish you
- 6:54Speaker 6: hadn't brought up her.
- 6:55Speaker 5: Jackie.
- 6:56Speaker 4: Jackie.
- 6:57Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 6:59Speaker 3: How do you feel about her now?
- 7:02Speaker 6: Nothing. I just miss... Nothing.
- 7:05Speaker 11: I'm not angry with her. She hadn't done anything. She
- 7:09Speaker 11: was nothing but a great wife.
- 7:10Speaker 3: Because you had a good marriage, right?
- 7:13Speaker 6: Yeah. To me, it was. I assume to her, it
- 7:17Speaker 6: was also.
- 7:19Speaker 3: Here you were, a man who had found true love
- 7:22Speaker 3: with a woman that he really adored... You had this
- 7:27Speaker 3: very rare Mercedes worth over $ 100, 000.
- 7:30Speaker 4: You bought your wife a Mercedes.
- 7:32Speaker 6: Yeah, but see, we had five of them. We traded up.
- 7:35Speaker 6: Not only did I have a nice car, I had
- 7:39Speaker 6: two or three Platinum MasterCards, two or three Visas, Platinum Visas.
- 7:43Speaker 6: I had a Platinum Discover. I had a gold Neiman Marcus.
- 7:47Speaker 3: You had a Rolex watch, right?
- 7:50Speaker 11: Yeah, I traded in my, I had a Piaget watch
- 7:54Speaker 11: at first. She bought me a Piaget at first. I
- 7:57Speaker 11: traded it in and.
- 7:58Speaker 6: Got a Rolex.
- 7:59Speaker 3: Because one of the inexplicable things about all this is
- 8:05Speaker 3: why somebody who was having such a wonderful life, apparently,
- 8:10Speaker 3: would want to commit offenses like this.
- 8:14Speaker 6: I can't imagine. I didn't, you know.
- 8:19Speaker 3: Do you think you're a violent person?
- 8:24Speaker 11: I get angry just like everybody else, you know, about
- 8:29Speaker 11: stuff that I find not true about.
- 8:31Speaker 4: What really makes you angry?
- 8:34Speaker 6: Lying.
- 8:51Speaker 3: So, Carl, we're now turning into Troost Avenue. And this,
- 8:56Speaker 3: at the time of these killings, was where many local
- 9:00Speaker 3: prostitutes would work.
- 9:02Speaker 4: Is that right?
- 9:03Speaker 12: Right.
- 9:03Speaker 6: That's true.
- 9:04Speaker 13: They would walk back and forth down Troost Avenue. Gilliard was,
- 9:12Speaker 13: without a doubt, very cunning. He was very cunning. You know,
- 9:17Speaker 13: he's the kind of guy that you would not expect
- 9:20Speaker 13: like a lot of serial killers.
- 9:21Speaker 6: He was very meticulous in what he did. He was careful.
- 9:30Speaker 6: He didn't... You know, he.
- 9:31Speaker 13: Didn't have a lot of friends, he didn't associate with
- 9:34Speaker 13: a lot of people, so, you know, nobody really knew
- 9:38Speaker 13: much about him to suspect.
- 9:40Speaker 6: Him of anything.
- 9:43Speaker 3: Lorenzo Gillyard was living a double life. At work, he
- 9:48Speaker 3: was popular and respected.
- 9:52Speaker 10: Lorenzo was, he was a good guy. He was always
- 9:57Speaker 10: eager to help or happy to help, and he never complained.
- 10:00Speaker 10: He just did his job and did.
- 10:02Speaker 6: It with a smile.
- 10:05Speaker 10: Lorenzo was the kind of guy you wanted out in
- 10:07Speaker 10: the neighborhoods. You wanted interacting with customers. I liked working
- 10:11Speaker 10: with him. You just took him as you found him.
- 10:13Speaker 10: Good standup guy.
- 10:26Speaker 3: Gillyard had made it out of a tough neighborhood and
- 10:29Speaker 3: was living here in a comfortable suburb of Kansas City.
- 10:33Speaker 14: This was the house that we lived in at the time,
- 10:36Speaker 14: and that was the house that Lorenzo Gillyard and his.
- 10:39Speaker 4: Wife lived in.
- 10:40Speaker 10: He's someone I knew from day one I would never trust.
- 10:45Speaker 14: One of the first days that we had moved in,
- 10:47Speaker 14: we were bringing a TV home, and to get the
- 10:50Speaker 14: TV in, I was going to back the truck into
- 10:52Speaker 14: the driveway. He said, I want you to come inside
- 10:55Speaker 14: and look at something. I want to show you something.
- 10:56Speaker 14: He came around from the corner from a bedroom, evidently,
- 10:59Speaker 14: and had 38 pistols in each hand. And he told me,
- 11:03Speaker 14: you see these? This is mine, and this is my wife's.
- 11:06Speaker 14: And if anybody comes in my yard, I'll shoot them.
- 11:10Speaker 4: That's not normal behavior. That's not normal.
- 11:14Speaker 3: Normal behavior it wasn't. Three years later, he was arrested,
- 11:20Speaker 3: and they found out who their neighbor really was.
- 11:23Speaker 15: Gileard was given six life sentences without the possibility of parole.
- 11:28Speaker 10: The 53-year-old sanitation worker will die in prison.
- 11:46Speaker 3: How do you feel, Lorenzo, about the fact that you
- 11:50Speaker 3: are sitting here as a convicted man as one of
- 11:55Speaker 3: America's worst serial killers.
- 11:57Speaker 4: How does that make you feel?
- 11:58Speaker 10: I hate it.
- 12:00Speaker 6: I truly hate it.
- 12:04Speaker 11: And I wish you wouldn't use that term again in
- 12:07Speaker 11: a conversation.
- 12:08Speaker 4: The phrase serial killer?
- 12:09Speaker 6: Yeah, and America's worst.
- 12:11Speaker 5: Right.
- 12:12Speaker 6: Because then I'll get up, I will leave.
- 12:13Speaker 3: Right.
- 12:14Speaker 6: Because I hate that.
- 12:16Speaker 4: Why do you take exception to that?
- 12:17Speaker 6: Because that's wrong.
- 12:21Speaker 3: What does it mean to you, that kind of phrase?
- 12:25Speaker 3: Why do you take such exception to it?
- 12:28Speaker 6: That's horrible. That's the best word I can term.
- 12:31Speaker 3: You think serial killers are horrible people and you don't
- 12:33Speaker 3: want to be associated with them?
- 12:35Speaker 5: No.
- 12:36Speaker 6: And that term, yes. I don't want to be.
- 12:41Speaker 3: You've been given a tag which you hate and you
- 12:44Speaker 3: don't want me to repeat it because you hate it
- 12:45Speaker 3: so much. But it's a tag that you know is
- 12:48Speaker 3: now associated with your name. If you put your name
- 12:50Speaker 3: into the internet... up comes Lorenzo Gillyard and Serial Killer,
- 12:54Speaker 3: you know that. It's not me, I'm not coming up
- 12:57Speaker 3: with it myself. And yet you find that tag really
- 13:00Speaker 3: offensive because you believe you're an innocent man.
- 13:04Speaker 6: No, I don't believe it, I know I am, okay?
- 13:11Speaker 3: When Catherine Barry, the mother of three, got into Lorenzo
- 13:14Speaker 3: Gillyard's car, she was mentally unwell and vulnerable. Leaving her
- 13:22Speaker 3: family at home, she would walk the streets of Kansas City,
- 13:26Speaker 3: trying to educate people about God. Her daughter Dawn was
- 13:32Speaker 3: 16 at the time of the murder. Dawn, you discover
- 13:38Speaker 3: that this was a serial killer who killed your mother.
- 13:43Speaker 3: Did that make it worse for you, to know that
- 13:45Speaker 3: she was just part of this monster's indiscriminate spree?
- 13:50Speaker 7: Yeah, it made it really hard to swallow to think
- 13:52Speaker 7: he'd gotten away with it and had done it that
- 13:54Speaker 7: many times.
- 13:55Speaker 4: Yeah, it made me angry.
- 14:00Speaker 7: It made me really angry. She would have been a
- 14:03Speaker 7: very easy target for him. How you could do that
- 14:07Speaker 7: to such a kind and sweet soul, I'll never understand.
- 14:10Speaker 1: A person with a heart couldn't do.
- 14:13Speaker 10: What he did.
- 14:18Speaker 3: Gilead has denied even meeting Dawn's mother, let alone strangling
- 14:22Speaker 3: her to death. How will he react when I confront
- 14:26Speaker 3: him with the faces of the women who were killed?
- 14:28Speaker 5: MUSIC PLAYS.
- 14:42Speaker 14: She too was found shoeless like all the victims and
- 14:45Speaker 14: placed in a sexually suggestive pose.
- 14:48Speaker 16: Her body contained the semen of the defendant and no
- 14:51Speaker 16: one else. The crime started back in 1977 and spanned
- 14:54Speaker 16: three decades.
- 14:55Speaker 13: Women strangled between 1977 and 1993.
- 15:00Speaker 16: Lorenzo Gilliard is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of murder
- 15:03Speaker 16: in the first degree for the deaths of Catherine Berry.
- 15:06Speaker 3: For the murders of Catherine Berry, Naomi.
- 15:08Speaker 6: Kelly, Ann Barnes, Kelly Ford. Kelly Ford and Sheila Ingold.
- 15:13Speaker 15: Sheila Ingold and Carmelene Hibbs.
- 15:16Speaker 1: First photograph I'm showing you is Sheila Ingold. Do you
- 15:19Speaker 1: know Miss Ingold?
- 15:20Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge. No, I don't.
- 15:22Speaker 1: This is a photograph of Stacey Swofford.
- 15:24Speaker 6: I didn't know her.
- 15:25Speaker 1: Have you ever had physical contact.
- 15:26Speaker 5: With Miss Swofford?
- 15:27Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge.
- 15:27Speaker 5: Nope.
- 15:28Speaker 1: Kelly Ford. Have you ever seen Miss Ford?
- 15:31Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge.
- 15:32Speaker 1: Photograph of Connie Luther.
- 15:34Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge.
- 15:34Speaker 5: Nope.
- 15:34Speaker 6: I don't know her neither.
- 15:36Speaker 1: You don't know her. Have you ever had physical contact
- 15:38Speaker 1: with her?
- 15:38Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge.
- 15:40Speaker 1: Carmelene Hibbs. Do you know Miss Hills?
- 15:42Speaker 8: Not to my knowledge, no.
- 15:46Speaker 3: Let me take you to the moment when you were arrested.
- 15:50Speaker 3: You remember that?
- 15:51Speaker 6: Oh, I remember it like it was yesterday.
- 15:53Speaker 3: Tell me what happened in your own words.
- 15:55Speaker 6: These two black guys came in and asked, you know,
- 15:59Speaker 6: what's my name? I said, yeah. Said, well, we'd like
- 16:02Speaker 6: to talk to you downtown. I said, who are you?
- 16:05Speaker 6: And he told me they was detectives.
- 16:07Speaker 3: Did they tell you what they wanted.
- 16:09Speaker 6: To talk to you about? No, he just said he
- 16:10Speaker 6: wanted to talk to me.
- 16:11Speaker 3: Did you have any idea?
- 16:12Speaker 6: I didn't know what they was talking about, but, you know.
- 16:14Speaker 3: So you were shocked?
- 16:15Speaker 6: Yeah, I was shocked.
- 16:17Speaker 11: So when I get downtown, they got to show me,
- 16:19Speaker 11: they asked me about some, show me some, they said,
- 16:22Speaker 11: do you know these people here?
- 16:23Speaker 6: Show me one picture at a time. I said, no,
- 16:25Speaker 6: not to my knowledge.
- 16:27Speaker 3: They showed you photographs of 13 women.
- 16:30Speaker 6: No, it wasn't 13. It was like five or six. Right. Yeah.
- 16:34Speaker 3: And they asked if you'd ever met them?
- 16:35Speaker 6: Yeah, and I said, no, not to my knowledge, you know.
- 16:38Speaker 3: I think they asked you, I think I'm right in saying,
- 16:41Speaker 3: they asked you two questions about each woman. They said,
- 16:43Speaker 3: have you ever met this person, and have you ever
- 16:45Speaker 3: had sex with them?
- 16:46Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 16:46Speaker 4: And you said, no, no, no, to all of them.
- 16:48Speaker 6: No, I said, no, not to my knowledge, yeah.
- 16:50Speaker 4: Yeah, not to your knowledge.
- 16:51Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 16:53Speaker 3: And none of these women look familiar to you?
- 16:54Speaker 6: No, because these were little bitty black and white pictures, so,
- 16:57Speaker 6: you know, I couldn't.
- 16:59Speaker 3: And did they then tell you why they wanted to
- 17:01Speaker 3: talk to you?
- 17:02Speaker 11: No, uh-uh. So when we got to talking then, I said, man,
- 17:09Speaker 11: what are we talking about?
- 17:09Speaker 3: I just want to look at some pictures here. These
- 17:18Speaker 3: are some of the people. They showed you the pictures.
- 17:20Speaker 4: Same thing. These are just a few of.
- 17:27Speaker 3: The images, Lorenzo.
- 17:29Speaker 6: Yeah, see, they weren't like that, though.
- 17:31Speaker 4: See, this picture here is Sheila Ingle.
- 17:33Speaker 6: Now, That's the only person that actually.
- 17:37Speaker 4: You did know her?
- 17:38Speaker 6: No, I didn't know her, but.
- 17:39Speaker 3: She was a friend of the woman you were seeing
- 17:40Speaker 3: at the time?
- 17:41Speaker 6: Yeah, right, right.
- 17:42Speaker 4: You'd never met her?
- 17:43Speaker 6: Never met her. Never seen her.
- 17:44Speaker 3: Do you recognize her now? No.
- 17:47Speaker 5: Uh-uh.
- 17:48Speaker 6: Never seen her before in my life.
- 17:50Speaker 4: This was Catherine Barry. This was Catherine Barry. Have you
- 17:55Speaker 4: ever seen her?
- 17:56Speaker 6: I've never seen her.
- 17:58Speaker 3: Doesn't ring any bells at all?
- 17:59Speaker 6: No, she never rings a bell. Never rung a bell.
- 18:05Speaker 3: This was Gwendolyn Kazin. She was just 15. It's obviously
- 18:09Speaker 3: not a good image of her, but she was the
- 18:11Speaker 3: youngest of these victims, 15-year-old girl.
- 18:14Speaker 6: I've never seen her, never knew her.
- 18:17Speaker 3: What do you feel, Lorenzo, about what happened to all
- 18:19Speaker 3: these women? Because they were all taken off the streets.
- 18:23Speaker 3: They were all strangled. And each strangulation apparently took several minutes.
- 18:28Speaker 3: I mean, it's a gruesome way to die.
- 18:30Speaker 6: Right, I know.
- 18:31Speaker 4: What do you feel about what happened to them?
- 18:33Speaker 6: I feel bad. But then I had nothing I could
- 18:35Speaker 6: do about it.
- 18:44Speaker 13: One of the things that just stood out to me
- 18:47Speaker 13: was that when we went to his apartment to do
- 18:52Speaker 13: a search, was how extremely neat he was. I'd never
- 18:58Speaker 13: really seen a man be quite that neat.
- 19:04Speaker 3: Incredibly tidy, clinical, precise. Everything was organized. It was all
- 19:10Speaker 3: very clean.
- 19:11Speaker 9: Yes.
- 19:14Speaker 13: If you went to look in a drawer, he could
- 19:18Speaker 13: not only tell you what was in the drawer, in
- 19:22Speaker 13: what order it was in. And I found that very
- 19:26Speaker 13: unusual for a man.
- 19:28Speaker 3: Does that tell you that he was a man who
- 19:31Speaker 3: liked to be completely in control?
- 19:34Speaker 6: Yes, that's exactly what that indicates.
- 19:38Speaker 3: And when you look at the precision with which he
- 19:41Speaker 3: carried out these murders and the way he left these
- 19:46Speaker 3: poor women, again, it was all very orderly.
- 19:49Speaker 4: It was very carefully executed.
- 19:52Speaker 5: Yes.
- 20:00Speaker 16: Her body was found at 45th and Garfield. Almost three
- 20:04Speaker 16: years later, 15-year-old Gwendolyn Kazin was found dead at 1312 Paseo,
- 20:09Speaker 16: a wire still wrapped around her neck.
- 20:12Speaker 17: Next was Margaret Miller.
- 20:15Speaker 3: In the 1970s and 80s, Lorenzo Gillyard was living within
- 20:19Speaker 3: a two-mile radius of where many of the bodies were found.
- 20:26Speaker 3: The last woman he was accused of killing was Connie Luther.
- 20:31Speaker 3: Her body was found here, with a shoestring tied around
- 20:34Speaker 3: her neck You were working these streets for seven or
- 20:40Speaker 3: eight years when we now know Lorenzo Gillyard was picking
- 20:45Speaker 3: women off the very streets you were on.
- 20:48Speaker 15: I feel extremely fortunate that I survived. But for girls
- 20:55Speaker 15: and women who this is how they made their livelihood,
- 20:58Speaker 15: this is how they survived, what were we to do?
- 21:02Speaker 6: We had to take our chances.
- 21:04Speaker 3: You didn't know who this killer was, what he looked like,
- 21:08Speaker 3: how old he was, anything.
- 21:10Speaker 15: I know for myself, you know, I would get in
- 21:12Speaker 15: a car after I tried to look for obvious things
- 21:16Speaker 15: and then I would just start praying.
- 21:18Speaker 6: I mean, I was in a constant.
- 21:20Speaker 15: Prayer, you know, and I know that's, some people don't
- 21:24Speaker 15: understand that, but, you know, when you're hungry or when
- 21:28Speaker 15: you have bills to pay and this is all that
- 21:29Speaker 15: you know and this is all that you've known since
- 21:31Speaker 15: you were a child, you know, you do what you
- 21:33Speaker 15: do and It was scary.
- 21:36Speaker 3: You know that these girls are getting taken by what
- 21:41Speaker 3: they think is a client and they're being taken to
- 21:43Speaker 3: horrific deaths.
- 21:44Speaker 6: Yes.
- 21:46Speaker 15: Yeah, so that's what's going through your mind, you know,
- 21:49Speaker 15: the whole time that you're in the car when you're
- 21:52Speaker 15: looking for your friend and where is she and no
- 21:55Speaker 15: one's seen her and then now a body's shown up
- 21:57Speaker 15: and you're waiting for the name and you find out that.
- 22:01Speaker 6: Someone you knew was murdered.
- 22:03Speaker 15: I mean, it was a terrifying time for everybody.
- 22:09Speaker 3: Your sister ended up, sadly, as a prostitute, didn't she?
- 22:15Speaker 3: What impact did that have on you?
- 22:21Speaker 6: I don't know how to answer that. It didn't have
- 22:23Speaker 6: no impact one way or another.
- 22:25Speaker 3: How did you feel about her being a prostitute? Did
- 22:27Speaker 3: you feel sad about that?
- 22:28Speaker 11: Yeah, because I wanted more for her than that.
- 22:34Speaker 3: You lived and worked in an area where there were
- 22:36Speaker 3: lots of women working the streets at night, lots of prostitutes.
- 22:39Speaker 4: What is your view of prostitution?
- 22:47Speaker 11: Frankly, I didn't have one view one way or another.
- 22:51Speaker 11: That was the best how they worked to make their money,
- 22:54Speaker 11: I guess.
- 22:55Speaker 4: You didn't find it repellent?
- 22:59Speaker 6: I don't know, man. I don't know how to answer that.
- 23:05Speaker 11: When you say repellent, you mean I found it disgusting
- 23:08Speaker 11: and hated it?
- 23:09Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 23:12Speaker 6: I don't know. I don't know what to say about that.
- 23:15Speaker 3: Have you ever had sex with a prostitute?
- 23:18Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 23:19Speaker 3: You don't know?
- 23:19Speaker 5: No.
- 23:20Speaker 4: You wouldn't forget, would you?
- 23:21Speaker 6: If he was at... Back then, man, clubs was club.
- 23:24Speaker 6: When we went clubbing. You know, women just... They might
- 23:28Speaker 6: have been working the streets at night, but they'd come
- 23:30Speaker 6: to clubs. You know, I don't know.
- 23:32Speaker 3: But have you ever paid a woman for sex?
- 23:33Speaker 6: No. No, I haven't.
- 23:36Speaker 10: Never?
- 23:36Speaker 6: Never.
- 23:37Speaker 3: Would you ever?
- 23:39Speaker 11: If she looked good enough, probably I would.
- 23:41Speaker 6: I don't know. I ain't going to put myself... I
- 23:43Speaker 6: would never put myself in that position.
- 23:46Speaker 9: No.
- 23:47Speaker 6: I don't... I don't know, man.
- 23:51Speaker 11: Basically, I was always taught, you pay a woman for
- 23:55Speaker 11: sex all the time.
- 23:56Speaker 6: If you buy her a drink, a dinner, take her
- 23:58Speaker 6: out and buy, do anything. That's paying for it.
- 24:02Speaker 3: Do you think all women are prostitutes, basically?
- 24:04Speaker 6: No, I didn't say that.
- 24:05Speaker 4: That's what you're implying.
- 24:09Speaker 6: And I'm going to end our conversation now because you're
- 24:11Speaker 6: taking things out of context. I didn't apply that.
- 24:15Speaker 4: I don't think I am taking things out of context.
- 24:16Speaker 3: I'm trying to work out what you're telling me. You
- 24:19Speaker 3: just said, when I said to you, you know, what
- 24:22Speaker 3: do you feel about paying women for sex? You said, well,
- 24:24Speaker 3: you pay women for sex all the time when you
- 24:26Speaker 3: buy them dinner.
- 24:26Speaker 6: And then you don't call them prostitutes.
- 24:28Speaker 3: You call them girls. But my question was about prostitutes.
- 24:31Speaker 3: So obviously when you answer the way you did, I
- 24:33Speaker 3: don't think it's irrational of me to then think you
- 24:36Speaker 3: you look at all women in that.
- 24:38Speaker 4: Way so if you want to clarify that please clarify it.
- 24:40Speaker 3: No i don't look at them i'm not trying to
- 24:41Speaker 3: be unnecessarily hostile i'm just reacting to what you're telling
- 24:45Speaker 3: me so explain what you meant.
- 24:50Speaker 11: Most men when you go you know when you take
- 24:52Speaker 11: a lady out what do you want to have sex
- 24:53Speaker 11: right so you buy her dinner buy her or.
- 24:57Speaker 6: Take her to a movie in hopes of what having
- 25:04Speaker 6: sex with her later on.
- 25:05Speaker 4: Well, I don't think it always has to lead to sex,
- 25:06Speaker 4: does it?
- 25:06Speaker 6: I mean.
- 25:08Speaker 6: Man, either that, if you don't, you're gay.
- 25:12Speaker 4: If it doesn't lead to sex, you're gay?
- 25:14Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 25:15Speaker 6: That's what, man, you're trying to.
- 25:18Speaker 11: That's what's... You're trying to pretend like that's never in
- 25:22Speaker 11: your repertoire. You know, you ain't never seen a beautiful
- 25:25Speaker 11: woman or a pretty woman And so, well, you know,
- 25:27Speaker 11: buy her lunch and a few drinks and hopefully go
- 25:29Speaker 11: to a hotel or go someplace.
- 25:31Speaker 3: No, but I wouldn't assume that if I didn't have
- 25:34Speaker 3: sex with a woman after a date in my life,
- 25:36Speaker 3: that somehow that meant I was gay.
- 25:38Speaker 4: That it was an automatic thing.
- 25:39Speaker 6: No, no, I didn't say it was automatic.
- 25:41Speaker 3: It would always be entirely of the choice of the woman.
- 25:44Speaker 6: Right, right.
- 25:45Speaker 3: And by the way, there are many, many dates that
- 25:46Speaker 3: happen every minute of the day that there's no... Right, okay.
- 25:51Speaker 4: Consequence of sex.
- 25:52Speaker 6: The first time, the first time out. But eventually, that's
- 25:55Speaker 6: what it's going to lead up to.
- 25:57Speaker 3: Right.
- 25:57Speaker 5: Right.
- 25:59Speaker 4: You're very angry.
- 26:02Speaker 3: Understandably, if, as you say, you're an innocent man, you're
- 26:04Speaker 3: very angry.
- 26:06Speaker 6: What do you hope... I'm sorry, if I... You know,
- 26:08Speaker 6: it's just... I'm getting tired of.
- 26:13Speaker 6: I didn't kill these people. Now, I'm 68 years old.
- 26:19Speaker 4: I don't have.
- 26:20Speaker 6: When you're trying to put words in my mouth, it's
- 26:23Speaker 6: twisted to.
- 26:24Speaker 4: I honestly don't want to put any words in your mouth.
- 26:28Speaker 6: If I'd have had sex with him, I'd have paid him.
- 26:34Speaker 3: Gilead says he's never had sex with any of the
- 26:37Speaker 3: women he's convicted of killing. So how will he explain
- 26:41Speaker 3: that the semen found on their bodies was his? Lorenzo
- 26:58Speaker 3: Gillyard is telling me he's never even met the women
- 27:01Speaker 3: he's convicted of killing. Any suggestion that he has gets
- 27:07Speaker 3: an angry response. When you were interviewed by the police originally,
- 27:11Speaker 3: you said you'd never met any of these women.
- 27:13Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge, I didn't.
- 27:15Speaker 4: And to your knowledge, you'd never had sex with them.
- 27:17Speaker 6: Right.
- 27:18Speaker 3: Just to clarify, you never told your lawyer you had
- 27:21Speaker 3: sex with any of these women?
- 27:22Speaker 6: No, I never did.
- 27:23Speaker 4: He just made that up?
- 27:23Speaker 6: I guess he did. I never told him that. If
- 27:26Speaker 6: you're going to keep saying that, then I'm going to
- 27:28Speaker 6: get up and leave.
- 27:28Speaker 5: No, no, no.
- 27:28Speaker 6: Because I keep telling you, I didn't tell him that.
- 27:30Speaker 3: Lorenzo.
- 27:30Speaker 6: That's beginning to piss me off. I didn't tell him that.
- 27:33Speaker 6: I don't have to lie.
- 27:33Speaker 3: Lorenzo, I have no dog in this fight. I'm just
- 27:38Speaker 3: trying to work out what happened.
- 27:40Speaker 6: I keep telling you over and over, I didn't tell
- 27:42Speaker 6: him that. Right.
- 27:48Speaker 3: Gilear will spend the rest of his life in prison,
- 27:51Speaker 3: but he nearly got away with murder. For years, police
- 27:57Speaker 3: were finding the bodies of women, but they had no
- 28:00Speaker 3: suspects and no idea there was a serial killer on
- 28:03Speaker 3: the loose. Then, one November morning in 1987, they found
- 28:12Speaker 3: the semi-naked body of Sheila Ingold in an abandoned van.
- 28:17Speaker 3: This murder would eventually lead to the capture of Lorenzo Gillyard,
- 28:22Speaker 3: almost 30 years after he's believed to have first killed.
- 28:30Speaker 6: This is where Sheila Engel was found, right there.
- 28:33Speaker 8: Right there.
- 28:35Speaker 6: The vans were parked out here in this lot.
- 28:51Speaker 16: The Kansas City Strangler killed four women in 1987, the
- 28:54Speaker 16: busiest year. Among them, Sheila Ingold's body was discovered in
- 28:59Speaker 16: an abandoned van on Troost.
- 29:04Speaker 3: Lorenzo Gillyard had a personal connection to Sheila Ingold. He
- 29:09Speaker 3: was dating her friend. She was the tenth woman he's
- 29:14Speaker 3: accused of killing. But it was the first time the
- 29:17Speaker 3: police would link him directly to a murder.
- 29:20Speaker 13: Sheila Ingold was found here in a van. Gillyard was
- 29:24Speaker 13: right there. And that tan building over there, it used
- 29:29Speaker 13: to be a fish market. And he was there getting
- 29:31Speaker 13: fish the day the body was found.
- 29:34Speaker 3: So that was the first time that you were able
- 29:37Speaker 3: to place him in the immediate proximity to one of
- 29:41Speaker 3: the dead women.
- 29:43Speaker 9: Yes.
- 29:44Speaker 13: Gillyard admits to being at the fish market while the
- 29:47Speaker 13: police were on the crime scene for Sheila Ingo. One
- 29:57Speaker 13: of the main things that led us to believe that
- 30:02Speaker 13: Gillyard was involved was Charles Berry told me that there
- 30:07Speaker 13: was an individual that wanted to look at the van.
- 30:11Speaker 4: Who's Charles Berry?
- 30:12Speaker 13: Charles Berry was the individual that had the car shop
- 30:16Speaker 13: here that owned the vans.
- 30:18Speaker 3: So the man who had the store here said that
- 30:21Speaker 3: a man named Lorenzo came and inquired about that van.
- 30:25Speaker 4: Yes.
- 30:27Speaker 13: And he didn't want to see any of the rest
- 30:28Speaker 13: of the vans. He wanted to see that particular one,
- 30:31Speaker 13: even though he was told that that particular van was
- 30:34Speaker 13: just one they used for parts.
- 30:36Speaker 3: So you now have him opposite where her body was found,
- 30:41Speaker 3: and you have him inquiring about trying to get that van.
- 30:46Speaker 9: Yes.
- 30:47Speaker 4: And you put all that together, and what have you got?
- 30:49Speaker 6: A killer. A killer.
- 30:56Speaker 3: Gillyard was questioned. Blood and hair samples were taken. But
- 31:01Speaker 3: there was not enough evidence to charge him. What was
- 31:05Speaker 3: curious about her death was that you were just opposite
- 31:10Speaker 3: where her body was found, and also you'd made inquiries
- 31:15Speaker 3: about buying the truck.
- 31:16Speaker 6: No, I didn't know nothing about no truck.
- 31:19Speaker 4: You never made any inquiries about it?
- 31:20Speaker 6: No, uh-uh.
- 31:25Speaker 3: I just want to go through the things that happened
- 31:27Speaker 3: to you in your earlier life, and I want you
- 31:29Speaker 3: to tell me just honestly what your reaction to it is.
- 31:33Speaker 3: Between 1969 and 1974, you were a suspect in five
- 31:37Speaker 3: separate rape cases, but you were never convicted.
- 31:41Speaker 4: What do you remember about those cases?
- 31:44Speaker 6: One of them was a girlfriend.
- 31:48Speaker 11: In 1969, that's how it started. So then after that,
- 31:56Speaker 11: whenever in the neighborhoods where I lived in the hood,
- 32:00Speaker 11: whenever rapes came up, I guess they come to arrest, you.
- 32:03Speaker 6: Know, see who lived in the neighborhood.
- 32:05Speaker 3: In 1975, you were charged with raping a friend's sister
- 32:08Speaker 3: near the Missouri River. You were charged with beating and
- 32:11Speaker 3: raping her. You told police she was lying. Ultimately, you
- 32:15Speaker 3: pled guilty to molesting the girl, and you got a
- 32:17Speaker 3: nine-month sentence in Jackson County Jail. Do you remember that?
- 32:20Speaker 6: Yeah, I remember that.
- 32:21Speaker 4: What happened there?
- 32:23Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 32:24Speaker 11: She's passed away, and her sister is passed away. That's
- 32:29Speaker 11: who I was living with, was her sister. And I
- 32:31Speaker 11: don't want to discuss that, what happened with that.
- 32:35Speaker 3: In 1980, you assaulted and threatened to shoot your wife,
- 32:38Speaker 3: who then divorced you. The next month, you assaulted your
- 32:41Speaker 3: ex-wife twice. You beat and pistol-whipped her. Is this true?
- 32:45Speaker 6: No, she lied.
- 32:46Speaker 3: Was it an abusive relationship?
- 32:48Speaker 4: Did you hit her?
- 32:49Speaker 5: No.
- 32:50Speaker 3: You never hit her?
- 32:51Speaker 6: Oh, she hit me, yes. I guess I ain't going
- 32:53Speaker 6: to lie. I did.
- 32:54Speaker 4: You did hit him?
- 32:55Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 32:57Speaker 3: The reason that they arrested you and then charged you,
- 32:59Speaker 3: and indeed why you got convicted, was that they found
- 33:03Speaker 3: your DNA on all of these.
- 33:07Speaker 4: Victims' bodies.
- 33:08Speaker 6: So they say.
- 33:09Speaker 10: Right.
- 33:10Speaker 4: But as you know, that's why you got convicted.
- 33:13Speaker 6: Right, right.
- 33:14Speaker 4: And the odds on this.
- 33:17Speaker 3: Being anybody but you, according to a forensic expert in court...
- 33:21Speaker 3: is one in 18 quadrillion. That's one in 18 million
- 33:26Speaker 3: billion chance that it could be somebody else other than you.
- 33:30Speaker 3: I mean, these are extraordinary statistics.
- 33:42Speaker 12: In this particular case, it was shocking that all 13
- 33:45Speaker 12: of those cases existed. But up until 2004, there had
- 33:48Speaker 12: been no resolution to them. So many victims, so many cases.
- 33:54Speaker 12: It's 13 people. That was the biggest we'd ever seen
- 33:58Speaker 12: in Kansas City's history.
- 34:01Speaker 3: Twelve of the bodies had semen on them, but detectives
- 34:05Speaker 3: had no way of knowing they were all from the
- 34:07Speaker 3: same man.
- 34:09Speaker 4: The murders went unsolved.
- 34:14Speaker 3: But then in 2003, over ten years since Gilead had
- 34:18Speaker 3: last killed, a grant from the federal government enabled DNA
- 34:22Speaker 3: analysis of those semen samples.
- 34:27Speaker 12: We had Lorenzo Gillyards, a blood standard from him that
- 34:30Speaker 12: was actually on file in our freezer. And it had
- 34:33Speaker 12: actually been taken in conjunction with the Sheila Ingold case.
- 34:38Speaker 12: We pulled the standard and decided to run it to
- 34:41Speaker 12: see if we could make an association or cross him
- 34:44Speaker 12: off as a potential suspect. There was a moment, oh
- 34:48Speaker 12: my God, it was the same profile. It was a
- 34:52Speaker 12: very exciting resolution, so that there was finally an answer
- 34:55Speaker 12: to all 12 of these cases that were now connected
- 34:58Speaker 12: to one person.
- 35:00Speaker 3: Gilead has always said the Kansas City police framed him.
- 35:04Speaker 3: He insists the DNA samples were tampered with, degraded too
- 35:09Speaker 3: much for accurate testing, or lost. I'm trying to work
- 35:13Speaker 3: out the truth here, because obviously you're facing at the
- 35:17Speaker 3: moment the rest of your life in this prison.
- 35:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 35:21Speaker 4: For crimes that you say you didn't commit.
- 35:23Speaker 6: I did not.
- 35:24Speaker 3: Why would the police frame you, do you think?
- 35:26Speaker 6: I don't know. Your guess is as good as mine's.
- 35:31Speaker 6: At that time, my assumption was they were trying, everybody
- 35:35Speaker 6: was trying to make a name.
- 35:36Speaker 3: Right, but what makes no sense to me, Lorenzo, is
- 35:38Speaker 3: that they arrested you years and years later. They were
- 35:42Speaker 3: just told by the DNA laboratory guys This is the
- 35:46Speaker 3: DNA we found on the bodies. And the one match
- 35:49Speaker 3: they found on every one of those bodies' DNA was
- 35:53Speaker 3: your DNA. Nobody else's. No one else they'd interviewed. And
- 35:58Speaker 3: I don't understand why so much later down the line
- 36:02Speaker 3: they would have any vested interest.
- 36:03Speaker 6: In framing you. How did they have my DNA to
- 36:05Speaker 6: match it to anything?
- 36:06Speaker 4: Well, they had it from when you were tested.
- 36:09Speaker 6: Tested when?
- 36:11Speaker 4: Back in the.
- 36:13Speaker 3: Well, you know when you.
- 36:13Speaker 4: Were tested, right?
- 36:14Speaker 6: I've never been tested. They've never had no.
- 36:16Speaker 3: But they had your blood and they had your.
- 36:18Speaker 6: No, it was destroyed in 1998.
- 36:21Speaker 3: But during the process of them interviewing you and arresting
- 36:24Speaker 3: you over Sheila Ingalls' death, they did take samples off you.
- 36:30Speaker 3: They took blood samples, they took hair, and they took saliva, right?
- 36:34Speaker 6: No, they didn't take no saliva.
- 36:37Speaker 4: What did you give them?
- 36:38Speaker 6: Blood and hair.
- 36:40Speaker 5: Right.
- 36:40Speaker 3: That was enough for them later when DNA testing came
- 36:44Speaker 3: in to get your DNA from that, from those samples.
- 36:47Speaker 3: But your argument is those samples were destroyed.
- 36:49Speaker 6: Those samples was destroyed.
- 36:51Speaker 3: But when they arrested you again, years and years later,
- 36:56Speaker 3: in connection with all these offenses, they did more tests
- 36:58Speaker 3: on you, didn't they?
- 36:59Speaker 6: No, they didn't get no DNA from me then. They didn't?
- 37:02Speaker 5: No.
- 37:02Speaker 3: They didn't take any blood tests?
- 37:03Speaker 5: No.
- 37:04Speaker 4: No more samples?
- 37:05Speaker 6: No, they did not.
- 37:07Speaker 3: The police arrested you for 13 murders.
- 37:09Speaker 6: 12, okay. Well, 12, but it was 13 in court.
- 37:13Speaker 3: And they never took any samples off him?
- 37:15Speaker 6: No, never did.
- 37:22Speaker 12: So you told me that Mr. Gilliard alleges his sample
- 37:24Speaker 12: was never taken again in 2004. And we have a
- 37:29Speaker 12: sample in 2004 that was taken from him that we
- 37:32Speaker 12: used for DNA analysis.
- 37:34Speaker 16: So I know.
- 37:36Speaker 12: That can't be true, essentially. And not only did we
- 37:39Speaker 12: have his DNA on our victim's, but we also had
- 37:43Speaker 12: victims' DNA on items taken from Mr.
- 37:45Speaker 10: Gillyard.
- 37:46Speaker 12: In 2004, they took a brand-new DNA standard from Mr. Gillyard,
- 37:51Speaker 12: and once we completed analysis on that, we went back
- 37:53Speaker 12: and checked to make sure that that standard matched all
- 37:56Speaker 12: 13 cases. It matched the 1987 blood standard that we
- 38:01Speaker 12: had from Mr. Gillyard, so everything across the board was consistent.
- 38:05Speaker 12: It was all the same person.
- 38:11Speaker 3: You have very good memory, incredibly precise memory about everything.
- 38:15Speaker 3: You can remember specific dates going back decades.
- 38:17Speaker 5: Yes.
- 38:18Speaker 3: And yet you occasionally have erupted with anger and threatened
- 38:21Speaker 3: to leave. And it suddenly fires up out of nowhere.
- 38:24Speaker 6: I've shared a lot with y'all, and I've got nothing
- 38:27Speaker 6: in return for it.
- 38:28Speaker 3: What do you want in return for me?
- 38:30Speaker 6: Nothing. Just nothing. I just felt offended, I guess.
- 38:35Speaker 3: What were you offended by?
- 38:37Speaker 6: The terms that you used and some of the questions.
- 38:45Speaker 3: What would you say to all the families of these women?
- 38:49Speaker 6: I'm sorry what happened to them. That's all I can say.
- 38:53Speaker 6: I didn't do it, but I'm sorry.
- 38:54Speaker 5: Margaret Miller, discovered.
- 39:04Speaker 17: 5-9 of 82-37 at Garfield. Do you know, or did you.
- 39:19Speaker 2: Know, Miss Miller? Not that I, know.
- 39:29Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge, no.
- 39:30Speaker 1: Have you ever had physical contact with Miss Miller?
- 39:32Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge.
- 39:33Speaker 1: Have you ever seen Miss Miller?
- 39:35Speaker 5: Nope, not to my knowledge.
- 39:37Speaker 1: Carmeline Hibbs, do you know Miss Hibbs?
- 39:40Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge, no.
- 39:41Speaker 1: Have you ever seen Miss Hibbs?
- 39:42Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge, no.
- 39:44Speaker 1: Have you ever had any physical contact with her?
- 39:46Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge, nope, nope. Not to my knowledge.
- 39:49Speaker 6: Not to my knowledge. Not to my knowledge. I didn't
- 39:52Speaker 6: know her. Nope. Not to my knowledge.
- 39:55Speaker 1: Have you ever seen her?
- 39:57Speaker 6: Not that I know her. Not to my knowledge.
- 40:18Speaker 4: Does it matter to you whether I believe you or not?
- 40:24Speaker 6: No, not really. I don't know why I would. After
- 40:27Speaker 6: you walk out of this room, you know.
- 40:29Speaker 3: You see, I think you're a plausible talker. You have
- 40:38Speaker 3: an answer for everything. But I find some of what
- 40:41Speaker 3: you've said about women a little bit disturbing. I think
- 40:45Speaker 3: other people will too. You've admitted to potentially being a
- 40:49Speaker 3: violent man. We know you have a record of convictions
- 40:53Speaker 3: for sexual assault and for violence. I thought you said.
- 40:57Speaker 4: Well, you have.
- 40:57Speaker 3: Criminal convictions for assault and for violence, right? You haven't
- 41:01Speaker 3: contested that. When you put it all together, and you
- 41:05Speaker 3: have the police saying they're categorically, in their words to me,
- 41:11Speaker 3: there is not a one in 100 million chance it
- 41:14Speaker 3: was anybody but Lorenzo Gilead. The DNA... From him, directly matched, each,
- 41:22Speaker 3: every one of these women. It's very hard to look
- 41:26Speaker 3: at you, Lorenzo, and see an innocent man. Okay.
- 41:30Speaker 6: Then that's it. So, are we through then? If you don't, yeah,
- 41:35Speaker 6: that's good.
- 41:38Speaker 3: Has any part of you, and I'll be straight with you,
- 41:43Speaker 3: you've always denied all this, despite the overwhelming evidence.
- 41:46Speaker 6: Overwhelming evidence.
- 41:48Speaker 12: DNA.
- 41:48Speaker 3: DNA is pretty overwhelming.
- 41:50Speaker 6: Okay. According to the police, okay.
- 41:54Speaker 4: According to anyone that studies the DNA results.
- 41:58Speaker 6: And who else did it? But the Kansas City Police Department.
- 42:02Speaker 3: Well, let me ask you this then.
- 42:03Speaker 4: If it wasn't you, who else was it?
- 42:05Speaker 6: I don't know. I don't know.
- 42:07Speaker 3: Have you got any theories?
- 42:09Speaker 5: No.
- 42:10Speaker 6: I don't know. I don't know, man. I truly don't know.
- 42:18Speaker 3: The problem I have, Lorenzo, is that you go from
- 42:21Speaker 3: being this charming, well-spoken, polite man to somebody very different
- 42:25Speaker 3: very quickly. You go to somebody that I could imagine,
- 42:29Speaker 3: if he was angry and he was pushed enough, could
- 42:33Speaker 3: be very dangerous.
- 42:34Speaker 11: So what these women have made me angry or pushed
- 42:38Speaker 11: enough to do to.
- 42:38Speaker 6: Make me hurt them?
- 42:39Speaker 3: You tell me.
- 42:41Speaker 6: I'm asking you. They couldn't have done nothing. They couldn't
- 42:45Speaker 6: have done nothing.
- 42:46Speaker 4: Did they disrespect you?
- 42:48Speaker 6: I don't know how they could have disrespected me. I
- 42:50Speaker 6: didn't know them.
- 42:54Speaker 3: Yet your DNA was found all over their bodies.
- 42:56Speaker 5: Okay.
- 42:58Speaker 3: But you know that.
- 42:58Speaker 6: All right. All over their bodies? Come on. I know
- 43:03Speaker 6: that wasn't right.
- 43:04Speaker 11: It was in their sex area with Sheila Ingle.
- 43:09Speaker 6: It was a spot on her leg.
- 43:14Speaker 3: How did they get that?
- 43:15Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 43:16Speaker 4: You've never met her, you said?
- 43:17Speaker 6: I never met her. I don't know. I just truly
- 43:22Speaker 6: don't know.
- 43:24Speaker 4: What was your defense in court?
- 43:28Speaker 6: I truly don't know. I was just there.
- 43:30Speaker 3: You have no idea what your defense was?
- 43:32Speaker 5: No.
- 43:33Speaker 3: I read it. You were charged with killing 13 women
- 43:37Speaker 3: by strangulation, and you have no idea what your defense was?
- 43:43Speaker 3: Do you think I'm an idiot, Lorenzo? Do I look
- 43:45Speaker 3: an idiot to you?
- 43:46Speaker 6: Get out and go back. Have a good day, y'all.
- 43:57Speaker 6: Thank you. All right. Here, this is your....
- 44:38Speaker 3: Tonight, Lorenzo Giliard will go back to his cell, as
- 44:42Speaker 3: he does every night. and reflect perhaps on how he
- 44:46Speaker 3: could have grown old with his wife Jackie, the woman
- 44:49Speaker 3: he told me he loved. Instead, he will die in prison,
- 44:55Speaker 3: a serial killer whose past eventually caught up with him.
- 45:01Speaker 17: MUSIC PLAYS.
- 45:15Speaker 7: When you don't have your mom, there's a part of
- 45:17Speaker 7: you that just, that missing piece that you have growing up,
- 45:20Speaker 7: you never get over it.
- 45:23Speaker 3: You just get the feeling he's managed to avoid having
- 45:25Speaker 3: to deal with any of this in.
- 45:27Speaker 4: Terms of accountability.
- 45:28Speaker 7: Yeah, nobody's, I mean, since the trial, I'm sure nobody's
- 45:30Speaker 7: been in his face to.
- 45:31Speaker 3: Tell him you're full of it. He's done no interviews, no, nothing.
- 45:34Speaker 4: He's not had anybody do it to him.
- 45:35Speaker 10: Good.
- 45:36Speaker 3: And it unnerved him.
- 45:38Speaker 7: As a human being, we all have that innate compassion.
- 45:41Speaker 6: He doesn't have it.
- 45:43Speaker 3: Having spent time with him, I actually think being incarcerated
- 45:47Speaker 3: for the rest of your life for someone like him
- 45:50Speaker 3: might be the best of all punishments.
- 45:52Speaker 7: That actually brings me a little bit of peace to
- 45:54Speaker 7: know that he's suffering. He should suffer because he devastated
- 45:59Speaker 7: us and we can't get it back.
- 46:02Speaker 6: So good.
- 46:03Speaker 7: I'm glad to hear that he's quite miserable.
- 46:05Speaker 6: I hope it continues.
