• 4:48
  Speaker 1: the blood is dry happens she's called she's that cold. No,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: I can't help but analyze that nine one one call.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: And this co worker doctor for treaty seems very very calm.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: I want to go to doctor Tim Gallagher right off
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: the top, the medical examiner for the entire state of Florida.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Doctor Gallagher. I mean, I know a lot of europe
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: patients don't hut, don't complain too much as you're the
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: medical examiner. But is that part of the training of
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: a doctor or could I read anything into his calm demeanor.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, if I found somebody Dad on the kitchen floor,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: bludgeoned dad, which is the whole nother cannon ORMs the
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: mode of death, he seemed pretty calm. Doctor Gallagher, Well,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: you know, doctors are human too, and everyone has their
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: own reaction to these type of things. But in our
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: medical training, you know, we are trained to remain calm
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: under stressful situations because people look to us as a
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: leader type individual in these situations, especially if there's a
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: medical condition involved, and then we have to project an
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: air of confidence and then direct the rescue personnel which
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: has resolved themselves to doctor Bethany Marshall's psycho analysts joining
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: us from LA You can find out doctor Bethany Marshall
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: dot com. Doctor Bethany I was the same way in court,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: no matter what happened, at least in front of a jury,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: I would stay extremely calm, even once when a prisoner
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: launched at me with a shank. Didn't make it, by
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the way, But long story short, not in other areas
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: of my life. But I guess when it's your duty
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: and your trained a certain way, you just carry on.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: What do you make of the nine one one call
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: doctor Bethany, Well, Nancy, let me tell you a little story.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: When I was doing your HLN show, I had a
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: patient who tried to kill herself. She overdosed on benzodiazepines.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: She called me up. She into like a sort of
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: a coma like state. I called nine one one, and
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: my biggest fear was that the nine one one call
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: was going to be played on the evening news. So
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: I was very formal and how I reported it. I said,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: this is Dr Bethany Marshall, this is my license number,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: this is where I got this call. This is the
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: woman's address, here's her diagnosis. Here the benzodiazepines, the number
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: of pills she took on down the road. Because I
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: knew that that was a very formalized report that this
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: could be played in course, this could be played on
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: the evening news. As I just said, so this is
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: the doctor who walks into a crime scene. The woman's
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: back of her head is Bashton, She's still wearing her
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: siletto shoes. He is the first one on the scene.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: So yes, doctor Kim Gallagher is correct. You have to
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: be authoritative, you have to be calm in the midst
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: of the storm. But there's also this anxiety about how
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: you are going to come across as you report the incident.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: You are the first responder, You're the person who's going
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: to be questioned. So how you make that verbal report
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: is extremely important. With me an all star panel today
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: to break it down put it back together again, of course.
• 7:37

  Speaker 1: those listeners that don't already know, Amanda Hall, when cops
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: came in, what did they find at the scene, Nancy?
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: When police came in in June of twenty fifteen, they
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: came in Sighed the Siver's home, and they found blood
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: in the kitchen, and they found Teresa's severs bludgeon to
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: death with the claw end of a hammer. Blood at Amanda, Amanda, Amanda,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Amanda Hall joining me, W, I and K. When you
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: say blood in the kitchen, I mean, you know, this morning,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I was chopping up green beans and I have to
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: chop the tips off every single one or Lucy won't
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: eat it, and I cut my finger. Okay, we're not
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: talking about that kind of blood. Nancy. Do you mean
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: by blood just a tiny drop? Tell me the whole thing, Amanda, Nancy,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: there was so much blood in there. You know. When
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: we have interviewed investigators and detectives who were initially on
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: this case, some of them had never seen anything like it.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: The amount of blood was stunning. When you look at
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: the report, seventeen crescent shaped cuts to her head. I
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: mean she was bludgeoned over and over and over and over.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: So you can just imagine the amount of blood inside
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: of that home. What else did they find, Amanda. The
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: other thing they found was that the crime scene was
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: staged to make it look like a break in, to
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: make it look like a robbery. The thing is, Nancy,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: they stuffed cash in different parts of the home, and
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: there was a whole cachet of guns that were untouched,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: so for it to be staged to look like someone
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: broke and entered, they didn't take anything. Climb stories with

• 11:39
  Speaker 1: diminutive woman. I think she was about four eleven, and
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: that's important because she always wore high heels, okay, and
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: to you know, give her a little height, and she
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: still had on her heels, or at least one of

  Speaker 1: went to her home again. I'm Nancy Grace. This is
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: crime Stories. Thank you for being with us, and you know.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Ashley Wilcot, judge and trial lawyer, anchor Court TV Ashley
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Wilcot dot com. Ashley, you and I both have a girl,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: and imagine two of them. You've got two boys and
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: a girl. I have a boy and a girl. And
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: John David is always just you know, happy, go lucky,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: care free. You know, he just wants to go outside
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: and jump on the trampoline. He wants to play with
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: his friends on the computer. You know, nothing for He'll
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: eat whatever I fix, He'll where wouldever I lay out,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: didn't care if his hair is come nothing, He's just perfect.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Girls are a whole nother ball game, and you need
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: your mother. You need a loving guiding hand. Somebody can
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: say stand up, don't walk like a field hand and
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: they don't get hurt. You're loving them, You're helping them
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: through all life's curveballs. These two little girls are with
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: dad at a Connecticut vacation with extended family. Their mom
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: is gone. I mean, how do you break something like
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: that to two little girls? Ashley? Yeah, I you know,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Nancy, you can't even imagine because depending
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: on the age, they don't even necessarily understand what that means.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: And so every day they're going to still look for
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: their mom and wonder where their mom is and try
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: to grasp what it means that she's literally gone forever.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: But the other thing that bothers me is, of course
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: it happens that one spouse is somewhere with the kids
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: and the other spouse has to travel back to work.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: But this to me was the beginning of the story,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: to say, he's in Connecticut with the kids, she's here
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: at home, and happens should then get killed the first night?
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Does this mean anything or not? Take a listen to
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the questions. The nine one one operator poses to doctor
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: but trades. Okay, And so you were there because they
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: asked you to take care of the house of that
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: collect mark. Her husband called me to say, please can
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: you chuck on her because not like her not to
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: show up to work in you like okay? So, and
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: I know you told him before. But when after he
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: called the chuck on his voice because she wasn't at work,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: correct all right? In kinably talked to him one okay,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: gatting the code number, he sounded a little you know whatever.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Can you see the call from work saying she wasn't there.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Okay, that's fine. You know he's her
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: office manager. Oh, she's the office manager of his business.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: You know, he's the office mander of her medical practice. Okay,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: right there, we're getting a lot of clarification. Did you
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: hear that to Amanda Hall, our special guests joining us
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: from WI n K wink TV Fort Myers, this is
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: in her backyard. So this is a common misconception. The
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: nine one one operators trying to figure out how this calm, cool,
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: collected co worker, a male co worker happens to show
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: up at the home to find a dead body, and
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: he says that the husband, Mark Severs, out of town
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: far away, calls and says he found out she wasn't
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: at work and had him go over and check on
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: doctor Severs. His wife gives him the burglary code, the
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: burglar alarm code. Why would he know that because he's
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: the office manager. And at first you hear the nine
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: on one operators say, oh, she's his office manager, and
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: he says no, Amanda Hall, tell me, what's your understanding
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: is how did doctor Patritis end up on the scene
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: to find a dead body? Because I always look at
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: who finds the body and who calls nine on one
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: because that tells me a lot. Circumstantially he gets it,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: does Nancy. And the reason that he was there is
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: because he was called by her husband, Mark, Mark was
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: alerted that she hadn't shown up for work, which is
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: very unlike her. You know, Teresa flew home a day
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: ahead of the rest of the family just so that
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: she could be at work Monday morning. She had a
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: late flight in Sunday night and was to see patients
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Monday morning. So when Monday morning rolled around and she
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: wasn't there, the staff called Mark, who ran the office
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: and said, hey, we we haven't heard from doctor Severs.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: She's not here. Wants you take a listen to what
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: our friends at ABC News says. In Florida, a prominent
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: doctor who appeared on local television found dead in her
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: home after failing to show up at her office. ABC's
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: Rina nine and is here with more on the story.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Rena, hey Amy, Good morning. This murder miss
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: has rock this South Florida community and right now law
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: enforcement asking everyone to do one particular thing, lock your doors.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: This morning, police and Benita Springs, Florida searching for clues
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: after doctor Teresa Severs, a local doctor and mother of two,
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: was found dead in her home. Please don't tell me
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: it's that house. Please don't tell me it's that house,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: he said it is. After a family vacation last week,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Severs returned to Florida alone, calling her husband to let
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: him know she'd arrived safely. When she didn't show up
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: for work Monday morning, worried colleagues called police, who discovered
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: her body. Hearing our hearing our friends there at Local ABC.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: The crime scene overwhelming. But as Amanda Hall just told you,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: the crime scene seemed staged because no money was taken.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: There was a cash off guns there as well, Amanda Hall,
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: I've never known there to have been allege any type
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: of sex attack. Is that correct? Correct? She's bludge and
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: dead in the kitchen, and is my understanding her pocket
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: book was there too, right, Amanda? Right? She came home,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: pulled into the garage and went from the garage into
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: the house and that's where she was attacked. You know,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: my first thought that when this happened was the burglar alarm.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: James Shellnutt and James, this is not a plug. But
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: I'm coming out with a book in Jeanne called don't
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: be a victim. And I had to research, and I
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: included this case, case after case after case after case
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: regarding burglar alarms locking your doors. That night that day,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: I heard about doctor Teresa Severs being murdered. My first
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: question was, what about a burglar alarm. It's hard for
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: me to believe that a medical doctor with an office manager, husband,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: and two little babies to take care of doesn't have
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: a burglar alarm. I mean, you can get a burglar
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: alarm for ninety nine dollars. It covers your whole house,
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: and why wouldn't they have a burglar alarm. Then I
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: found out, James, they did have a burglar alarm, and
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: that was a brain twister for me. James, Yeah, absolutely,
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: And so from everything I've researched, the indicatese that Mark
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Severs had actually told I believe it was either his
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: mother or her mother not to set the burglar alarm
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: because he was afraid that the pets may set the
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: alarm off. Huh. Well, okay, interesting on that, because I
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: have pets too, a cat and a dog and two
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: guinea pigs. God help me if they get loose. But
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: there are ways to set your alarm. Where the people
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: and animals can wander around and go in and out
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: doggy doors and cat doors without setting off the alarm.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Absolutely crime store with Nancy Grace. This is not new age,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: this is actually ancient years of wisdom of healing from
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Eastern medicine, known for a practice focusing on integrated health
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: using a mix of Eastern and Western medicine. Sivers was
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: a passionate advocate for holistic healthcare and a popular fixture
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: in her community. I remember the first time that I
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: went to see her, she spent more than an hour
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: with me. Severs was a popular fixture in her community.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: She had the quality like a mother Teresa. She cared
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: and she had nothing more than love. If she had
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: nothing else to offer, it would be her care and
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: her love for the patient. Thinking about doctor Teresa Severs,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: and you were just hearing about how she was often
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: called Mother Teresa because of the way that she treated
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: her patience in the community. That was ABC News reporter
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Na Nanan. But I wanted you to take a listen
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: to something very odd that happened at the funeral. Eight
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: days after doctor Teresa Severs was murdered, friends and family
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: came together for her funeral. Almost all her patients were there.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: I was numb. As we were going down to try
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: to get to the casket. We were seeing her sisters
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: on one side, and the look that we were getting
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: wasn't a look of sadness. It was look of hatred.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: Frank Pays and his wife Sandra say the look didn't
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: just come from doctor Sever's sisters. They were getting the
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: same look from the grieving widower. I hugged him. What
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: do you say? I said, Mark, I am so sorry.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: I don't have words to say to you. And he
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: squeezed me so tight and nothing came out of his mouth.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: Then Sandra hugged him. But Mark hugged Sandra. His teeth grinned,
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: and it wasn't nothing of sorrow or sadness. The look
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: was hatred that I stepped back as a holie. Strange
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: well perhaps, but doctor Teresa Severs killer hadn't yet been arrested.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: You are hearing our friend, I know you recognize that voice.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: Eron Moriarty at CBS forty eight hours, A look of
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: hate at the funeral and doctor Bethany Marshall's psychologists joining
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: me out of la Doctor Bethany, it's not that looking back,
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: he concocted this at the time, he said he recoiled
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: and was shot. At the look on the husband's face,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Why did he somehow blame her family? Why? Why would
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: hatred be a part of a funeral? That's the first
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: thing after a death that's unsolved. You start looking at
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: the crime scene, then at the funeral. Nancy, can you
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: imagine going to a funeral Teresa Fevers's dad. Her husband's there.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: You expect him to be crying and grieving, and instead
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: he's looking at a former employee with hatred. It tells me,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: first of all, he's worried about all the wrong things.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: But he's been worried about all the wrong things all along.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: He disarms the alarm because of the pets. His wife's
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: coming home alone, he stays behind with the girls. If
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: he's a real man, why not go home with your
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: wife and help facilitate her going back to work. He's
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: the office manager while she's out there seeing patients. I mean,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: on the face of it, nothing wrong with that, But
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: he's sending her out to work while he's doing the
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: easy work behind the desk. I mean, all along this
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: whole story, this husband has never acted like a husband.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: So the fact that he is glaring hatefully at one
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: of the attendees of the funeral tells me that he's
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: actually trying if he indeed is the one who did it,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: he's trying to shift the blame onto somebody else. Let
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: me go to Amanda Hall, Special Guests joining us from
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: w i n KTV Fort Myers, Florida. Amanda, what do
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: we know about the husband? And yes, I know he
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: was in Connecticut at the time. All of you just
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: joining us a major development in the murder of doctor
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: Teresa Severs. What do we know about Mark Sievers? Where
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: is he from? What's his deal? Well, we know that
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: the two met while he was a nurse and she
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: was a new doctor practicing in Saint Petersburg, Florida. We
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: know that they married very quickly, had their first daughter
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: shortly after they were married on the beach. They had
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: two girls, eleven and eight years old at the time,
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: and he became the office manager of her practice, propping
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: her up to do what she did best, and that
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: was treating people with a blend of traditional medicine and
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: holistic medicine. And he was really the more of the
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: caregiver for the two girls. Neighbors said that they always
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: saw him outside playing with them and attending to the
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: two daughters. Where did you tell me he's from, Amanda?
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: To start with, Mark Sievers grew up in a little
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: small town in Missouri, h Okay. I want to go
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: to doctor Tim Gallagher, medical examiner for the State of Florida.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Doctor Gallagher, I want you to describe if you could,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: the wounds to doctor Saver's body. And again there was
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: no sex attack and no theft or burglary from her
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: person or the home. So her wounds were concentrated mostly
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: on the back of her head. So they were the
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: crescent shaped impressions that a hammer would make when they
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: strike soft flesh. So she had a lacerations to the
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: back of her head. Who was extensive bleeding. There was
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: a physical brain damage done. The shards of the broken
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: skull had penetrated into her brain and there was massive bleeding.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: What did you just say about charge of the skull. Well,
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: when the skull is broken, they're broken into very sharp pieces.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: And as the attack continues, as the hammer keeps now
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: striking these pieces of bone, these loose pieces of sharp
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: bone are now being driven into the actual brain, causing
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: the tearing of the brain tissue and cutting of the
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: blood vessels that supplied blood to the brain. I'm just
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: trying to think about this massive attack on this tiny
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: woman and Amanda Hall, reporter w i K TV in
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: Fort Myers. Amanda most of the blows or to the
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: back of the head. Did she ever even get a
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: chance to fight back? No, Nancy, she didn't. You know,
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: she rolled her suitcase into an attack and ambush, so
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: her suitcase was still sitting there. A suitcase was still
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: in the garage. She had just walked in the door,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: hadn't had a chance to unpack anything, hadn't even had
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: a chance to change your clothes or do anything. This
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: is telling me so much about the attack. James shell
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Nutt twenty seven years Atlanta Metro major case swat officer,
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: now lawyer, James shell Nutt. Somebody, I mean, it's no
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: coincidence that somebody is right there in the kitchen as
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: she walks in from the garage, parts her car in
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: the garage, gets your suitcase out of the car, still
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: sitting there in the garage, she walks in the kitchen
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: and bam, She's attacked. Nothing stolen nothing taken from her,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: and on her pocketbook and on her cell phone, nothing.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: All that money they had hidden in various spots, the
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: guns that the husband kept, nothing taken, no sex attack.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: But someone is lurking right there. She can't even get
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: past the kitchen. They're waiting for her to come through
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: that garage door. Yeah, all of this adds up to
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: the fact that you need to start looking at someone
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: who is closely connected to this victim. This is not
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: something random. There's too many coincidences. The coincidence about the husband,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: you know, not flying back, the coincidence about the alarm
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: not being set, she walks into a house, there's no
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: other motive evidence at that point. You start where you
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: traditionally start, which is at the circle of people closest
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: to the victim, and that often starts with a spouse.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: Rick smile, you're not kidding. Crime stories. With Nancy Grace,
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: they bought, among other things, trash bags, flushable web wipes,
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: black towels, black shoes, and a lock picking kit. They
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: paid cash for their purchase with a one hundred dollars bill.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: After shopping of Walmart, Jimmy and Wayne continued using the
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: navigation system to find the beach. After soaking in some
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: sun at the beach, according to police, Affidavid's Wayne and
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: Jimmy returned the Sever's home, where they hung out for
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: hours in the garage, lying in wait for an unsuspecting
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: doctor Severs to arrive. Who in the hey are these
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: two you're hearing CBS Aeron Moriarty describing two guys, Curtis
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: Wainwright and Jimmy Ray Rogers coincidentally Curtis Wainwright, longtime friend
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: of doctor Severs husband Mark. Not only that, if you
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: look at the two of them side to side, and
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: you can see them at crime online dot com, they
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: look like twin brothers that often joked that they're brothers
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: from another mother. They look identical to each other, and
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: they grew up together and went to high school together.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: What were they doing in town? What were they doing
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: near Teresa Severs home? A real red flag as then raised,
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Listen to Aaron Moriarty, When investigators uncovered five life insurance
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: policies for Teresa totally more than four million dollars, it
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: was a red flag. So was that trip Mark made
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: to Missouri to be Wainewright's best man. And as it
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: turns out the other suspect, Jimmy Ray Rogers, was also
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: a wedding guest. Investigators wondered if that's where Mark hatched
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: a plan with the two men. Taylor's shoemaker. Jimmy's girlfriend
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: claimed this was a murder for hire and that Jimmy
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: was supposed to be paid ten thousand dollars. And then
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: I said I wasn't made money and it was murdering
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: Mark's fife. He said, m hired Wayne, Yes, and Wayne
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: hired him. Marked didn't know anything about jim Maybe and
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: hired supposed to come from entrance from her death. Okay?
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: Did he alread? No? Detectives still didn't have the proof
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: they needed to connect Mark to his wife Teresa's murder.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: And then, almost eight months after Teresa Sivers was killed,
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: Wayne Wright, facing a possible death sentence, only turned on
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: his brother from another mother and he took a deal.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: Mister Wright, why are you pleading guilty today to second
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: dree murder? Wayne admitted killing Teresa. I'm I'm pleading guilty
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: because of my role in the planning and participating of
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: the murders Teresa Severs, and he accused Mark Severs of
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: being the mastermind. That's all police needed. Mark. Did you
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: hire Wayne Wright to kill your wife? Mark Severs was
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: charged with the murder of his wife. Did you hire
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: anyone to kill your wife? You're hearing our friend Erin
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: Moriarty straight out to Amanda Hall, reporter w ian K
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: TV Fort Myers. How did these three hook up? Tell
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: me the whole thing, Amanda Hall? Okay, Wayne Wright is
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: a childhood friend. As you heard of Mark Severs. They
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: called themselves brothers from another mother, but they really looked
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: like real brothers. They looked like twins. So Waynewright is
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: getting married and Mark Sievers is his best man, and
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: they started planning this while he was there for the wedding.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: Market is saying that his wife is going to leave him,
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: and he's worried that he can't pay to battle her
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: for custody of their two daughters, and that his only
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: option is for Teresa to die, and so he hires
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Wayne to do the job. Says he'll pay him one
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars from the insurance money, and then Wayne
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: brings in Jimmy the Rogers Hammer, a man that he
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: met while they were both serving time in prison for
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: other crimes. So Mark hires Wayne, and Wayne brings in
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: the Hammer. Okay, now that's a heck of a nickname.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: You know. I gotta go to a shrink on that.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: Doctor Bethany Marshall the Hammer. Well, it's interesting he called
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: himself the hammer because that's what he used to bludch
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: a the victim to death. And he did it quite aggressively,
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: quite maliciously. And Nancy, this was overkilled. When when doctor
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: Gallagher was talking about shards of the skull in the brain,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: I realized they could have hit her once and killed her.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: They killed They hit her multiple times. So Jimmy the
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: Hammer has this fetishized interest in using a hammer on
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: a woman. Imagine what you want from that. But this
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: is an extremely aggressive man. Amanda to backtrack, how many
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: times is she bludging with the hammer? Doesn't at least seventeen?
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: We know from the autopsy report that there were seventeen
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: crescent shape wounds to the back of her head. To
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: doctor Tim Gallagher, the medical examiner for the state of Florida,
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: is that right seventeen? I thought they were eighteen. Well,
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: sometimes it's difficult to say exactly how many there are
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: when there when the number is so high, a lot
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: of them are intersecting, and a lot of them obscure
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: the one underneath it. So seventeen is probably a very
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: conservative number that they could definitively say, but often it's
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: quite more than that. I'm just so repelled at this
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: seventeen at least seventeen blows to the back of her
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: head with what I understand as a claw hammer on
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: this tiny, tiny little lady. To Ashley Willcott, judge and
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: trial lawyer anchor Court TV, Ashley, did you hear what
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: Amanda Hall said that? According to these two co defendants,
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: of course, who knows if they're telling the truth. They're
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: shifting all the blame to somebody else and off themselves.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: Look at him, not at me. They say that. At
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: one of their weddings, he basically said, we're gonna split,
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: We're gonna battle for custody. I have to kill her.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Why not just have joint custody? Asked me, We've not
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: a great question that we continue to entertain and on
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: this show because they're defendant. After defendant chooses to kill
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: someone instead of getting a divorce or having joint custody.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: You know, who knows? Why you can't answer why. You
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: can only look at what is the evidence show and
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: going after the person that the evidence show did such
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: a terrible thing, you know, just thinking through all of
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: the evidence. To Amanda Hall, reporter w i n K TV,
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: as a former prosecutor, you have to assess the witnesses
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: and see their faults. And here these two Curtis Wayne Wright,
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: the childhood friend of the husband Mark Sivers all the
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: way through school together is an identical twin Deceivers and
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Ray Rogers, nicknamed the Hammer, just twenty nine years old.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: They're POC's pieces of crap okay technical legal term. So
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: why should I believe them? What can you tell me
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: about these two? Wayne Wright and Jimmy Rogers are both
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: eleven hundred miles away from Benita Springs in a small
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: town in the middle of Missouri. And the way those
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: two are connected was from a stint in prison. So
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: that tells you a little bit about the character and
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: the kind of people that they are. Jimmy Rogers is
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: rumored to have been a hitman before. It's in fact,
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: it's something that he regularly bragged about, and that's why
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: Wayne ultimately brought him in because he was afraid he
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to go through with it, so he
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: needed a guy who has done it before and would
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: do it again, and he knew that he'd be the
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: one to actually kill her and go through with it.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: So fifty one year old Curtis Wayne Wright went to
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: school all the way through with Mark Savers childhood friends
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: in Missouri, and Savers moves to Florida, meets Teresa, They marry. Then,
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: when Mark Savers decides he needs a murder done and
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: he needs a hitman, Curtis Wayne Wright contacts Jimmy Ray Rogers,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: who he met in jail, twenty nine year old Rogers
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: aka the Hammer. Now, it would be so easy for
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: these two to blame Mark Severs to take the heat
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: off of them, but then enter another witness. Less than
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: an hour later, in the early morning hours of Monday,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: June twenty ninth, the GPS shows Jimmy and Wayne on
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: the highway headed northbound for the seventeen hour drive back
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: to Missouri. The electronic trail would eventually lead detectives to
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Ray Rogers door. Just like Wayne, he denied being involved,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: but when they pulled in Jimmy's girlfriend Taylor. Yes, what
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: a story she had to tell. Jimmy Ray Rogers took
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: his girlfriend Taylor for a ride right along Route forty
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: seven and Rule, Missouri. And along this road he asked
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: her to throw out parts of his cell phone, which
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: he is in a jumpsuit, he said, and then I
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: threw the bloods out, and then I threw out the
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: h did you ask Taylor Tall police. That's when she
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: pushed Jimmy to tell her exactly what happened in Florida. Wow,
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: what a couple of demons. You know. If the killer
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: is the devil, these two are his minions. Now we
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: know that Curtis Wayne Wright, the childhood friend, please guilty
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: to second degree murder. Then Rogers, so called the Hammer,
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: goes to trial and is convicted of second degree murder.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: But in the last hours a major development in the
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: case against Mark Sievers. Take a listen in the Circuit
