Latest / NO FILTER / She Claims That She Acted Alone_ The Plot to Murder Nicole Lenway [True Crime Documentary](MP3_160K)
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: On the twentieth of April twenty twenty two, Nicole Lenway
- 0:05Speaker 1: Ford was shot multiple times by a massed attacker on
- 0:09Speaker 1: the sidewalk of a busy intersection and in broad daylight.
- 0:13Speaker 1: Nicky wasn't the victim of a robbery or random violence.
- 0:17Speaker 1: Surveillance video showed the signs of a planned murder, an
- 0:21Speaker 1: attacker scoping the environment, hiding just out of sight, and
- 0:25Speaker 1: then choosing their moment. The young single mother worked as
- 0:29Speaker 1: a crime scene investigator. It was possible that she crossed
- 0:34Speaker 1: paths with the wrong person at work, or was this
- 0:38Speaker 1: terrifying attack motivated by something far more personal? Hi? There,
- 0:45Speaker 1: I'm Kevin, and welcome to Just Thought Lounge. Today we're
- 0:48Speaker 1: going to Hennepin County, Minnesota, where a mother picking up
- 0:52Speaker 1: her young son was ambushed in the street and the
- 0:55Speaker 1: only suspect had a rock solid alibi. Let's take a look.
- 1:14Speaker 1: In the spring of twenty twenty two, thirty three year
- 1:17Speaker 1: old Nicole Lenway was working as a forensic scientist with
- 1:20Speaker 1: the Minneapolis Police Department. Nicki was a real world CSI,
- 1:25Speaker 1: helping to solve some of the city's most brutal crimes.
- 1:29Speaker 1: The scientist was also a single mum. In twenty sixteen,
- 1:33Speaker 1: Nicki had given birth to son Callahan. Her romantic relationship
- 1:38Speaker 1: with her son's father, Timothy Amaker had not worked out,
- 1:42Speaker 1: As is so often the case, the parents fought over
- 1:45Speaker 1: time sharing and argued over their arrangements. Nicki had also
- 1:51Speaker 1: moved on romantically. She was in a new relationship with
- 1:54Speaker 1: police officer Donovan Ford. The two had fallen for each
- 1:59Speaker 1: other over an unconventional backdrop of flashing lights and crime tape.
- 2:05Speaker 1: On the twentieth of April, Nicky drove out to the
- 2:08Speaker 1: three thousand block of University Avenue in Minneapolis. She was
- 2:12Speaker 1: scheduled to collect Callahan from Family Wise, a supervised parenting center.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Tim was there spending time with their five year old son.
- 2:21Speaker 1: At roughly seven thirty pm, Niki exited her suv and
- 2:25Speaker 1: headed for the entrance of the building. Surveillance video of
- 2:29Speaker 1: the parking lot where Nicki pulled in and then began
- 2:32Speaker 1: waiting for her son captured the few terrifying moments that
- 2:35Speaker 1: followed Nicki exiting the vehicle. An individual wearing all black,
- 2:41Speaker 1: a hood, gloves, and a medical mask appears from the
- 2:44Speaker 1: far end of the parking lot in sprints towards her.
- 2:48Speaker 1: In the final seconds on screen, the mast attacker raises
- 2:52Speaker 1: a gun. Shots are fired, but beyond the view of
- 2:55Speaker 1: the camera. A second view from a building across the
- 2:58Speaker 1: intersectionure hear blurry images of what came next. The attacker
- 3:03Speaker 1: stood over Nicki and fired several shots. Cars drive past
- 3:09Speaker 1: the shooter, then ran back across the parking lot from
- 3:12Speaker 1: the direction they came. Nicki miraculously managed to get to
- 3:16Speaker 1: her feet. She tried first to get the attention of
- 3:19Speaker 1: workers inside the family wise building, but this failed. She
- 3:24Speaker 1: dialed nine one one. Once on the call, however, Nicki
- 3:28Speaker 1: realized that she must have been shot because she was
- 3:32Speaker 1: unable to speak. A driver coming through the intersection witnessed
- 3:37Speaker 1: the attack. She pulled her car over, helped Nicki into
- 3:40Speaker 1: the passenger seat, and took over the call to nine
- 3:43Speaker 1: one one. Emergency responders arrived in only a few minutes.
- 3:48Speaker 1: Emily Clancy, the driver who had pulled over to assist Nicki,
- 3:52Speaker 1: kept pressure on her neck, where it appeared that she
- 3:55Speaker 1: had sustained a gunshot. She was rushed to the hospital.
- 4:00Speaker 2: Coming up and I saw the two people, and then
- 4:04Speaker 2: all of a sudden, her fang.
- 4:06Speaker 1: Sang Emily told officers that she saw the shooter, whom
- 4:10Speaker 1: she believed was likely a male, run up behind Nicki
- 4:14Speaker 1: and put an object to her neck. The suspect ran off,
- 4:18Speaker 1: while Nicki staggered backwards. The sun went down outside the
- 4:23Speaker 1: family wise. While law enforcement began piecing together what had
- 4:27Speaker 1: occurred on the sidewalk, they found three discharged three eighty
- 4:32Speaker 1: cartridge cases, as well as three eighty live rounds. At
- 4:36Speaker 1: the hospital, medical personnel found that Nicki had suffered a
- 4:40Speaker 1: through and through gunshot to her arm, and the gunshot
- 4:43Speaker 1: to her neck had caused numerous injuries, including a perforated lung.
- 4:49Speaker 1: She remained in critical condition at that stage. She was
- 4:53Speaker 1: unable to communicate two investigators. Security cameras covering the parking
- 5:00Speaker 1: lot and surrounding area captured a twenty twenty two black
- 5:04Speaker 1: Dodge Ram pickup truck driving past the lot several times
- 5:07Speaker 1: that evening before parking just down the street. The hooded
- 5:11Speaker 1: and massed attacker emerged from this truck and was seen
- 5:15Speaker 1: pacing the area of the parking lot, presumably waiting for
- 5:18Speaker 1: Nicki to get out of her car, to the side
- 5:22Speaker 1: of the parking lot, around the side of the building
- 5:24Speaker 1: and behind a fence. The hooded figure eventually stopped and waited.
- 5:28Speaker 1: It is from this location that the shooter emerged from
- 5:31Speaker 1: hiding and ambushed Nicki as she walked towards the entrance.
- 5:36Speaker 1: The camera captured the shooter fleeing back to the vehicle
- 5:39Speaker 1: the same way they had arrived. The truck did not
- 5:44Speaker 1: have a license plate, and it was a common model.
- 5:47Speaker 1: It was void of any other defining characteristics. Police found
- 5:55Speaker 1: Nicki's ex boyfriend, Timothy Amicker inside the family wise where
- 6:00Speaker 1: it just had a visit with Callahan. Right now, I'm
- 6:06Speaker 1: going to ask you if I can search you for weapons,
- 6:08Speaker 1: quay for.
- 6:11Speaker 3: I've been here the whole time. I don't know what
- 6:12Speaker 3: happened on there.
- 6:14Speaker 1: Hannapin County police brought Tim in for questioning. They hoped
- 6:18Speaker 1: that her ex boyfriend could provide helpful information, anything that
- 6:23Speaker 1: might suggest who would wish to kill Nicki. He spent
- 6:26Speaker 1: a large portion of the interview describing how he is
- 6:29Speaker 1: a victim of family court, the Minneapolis police, and Nicki's
- 6:33Speaker 1: own behavior. When as if he had any idea who
- 6:37Speaker 1: would have shot her, Tim said absolutely. He claimed the
- 6:41Speaker 1: shooting must be related to her job as a forensic
- 6:44Speaker 1: scientist for the Minneapolis Police Department. Tim explained that Nicki
- 6:49Speaker 1: had recently been concerned that someone had been stalking her.
- 6:54Speaker 4: I was afraid because she thought people are driving bar
- 6:56Speaker 4: help He paid her last name to her middle name
- 7:00Speaker 4: on her.
- 7:00Speaker 3: Cocial media of Minneapo coming to her house all the time?
- 7:04Speaker 1: Who had me bring over my got gone were?
- 7:09Speaker 4: Now? It was choosing see.
- 7:13Speaker 1: There was nothing more that Tim Amaker could contribute to
- 7:16Speaker 1: the investigation. That night, officers drove him back to the
- 7:20Speaker 1: Family Wise parking lot where he could collect his jeep
- 7:23Speaker 1: and drive home. The vehicle was also searched at that time,
- 7:28Speaker 1: but nothing suspicious was found. The day after the shooting,
- 7:36Speaker 1: despite suffering life threatening injuries, Nicki Lenway woke up. The
- 7:41Speaker 1: bullet that had struck her neck was less than a
- 7:43Speaker 1: millimeter away from hitting an artery. If it had, she
- 7:47Speaker 1: would certainly have been killed. Nicki was unable to speak,
- 7:51Speaker 1: but she was capable of communicating through writing. What she
- 7:55Speaker 1: told investigators was unambiguous. The father of her child, Timothy Amaker,
- 8:01Speaker 1: had to have been responsible for the attack. He was
- 8:05Speaker 1: the only person that she knew who was both capable
- 8:08Speaker 1: and willing to kill her. There were a couple of
- 8:14Speaker 1: problems with Nicky's assertion. First, that employees from the family
- 8:18Speaker 1: wise confirmed that Tim had been inside with his son
- 8:22Speaker 1: when Nicki had been shot, he couldn't have been the shooter.
- 8:27Speaker 1: The second was that, in contradiction to what the key witness, Emily,
- 8:31Speaker 1: had recalled seeing at the scene, Nicki strongly believed that
- 8:35Speaker 1: her attacker had been a woman, not a man, though
- 8:39Speaker 1: she couldn't say who it could have been, but whoever
- 8:42Speaker 1: it was, they were put up to it by Timothy Amaker.
- 8:47Speaker 1: Of that fact, she had no doubt. Nicole Lenway met
- 8:55Speaker 1: the popular gym owner and taekwondo instructor Timothy Amaker into
- 8:59Speaker 1: the twenty twelve Nicki had been working out at his gym,
- 9:04Speaker 1: and the couple hit it off, dating for several months
- 9:07Speaker 1: before deciding to become serious. Nicki eventually moved into Tim's
- 9:11Speaker 1: house in Saint Paul. The taekwondo instructor, Master Amaker, as
- 9:16Speaker 1: he was known to his students, was eight years older
- 9:19Speaker 1: than Nicki. Over the course of their relationship, Tim grew
- 9:23Speaker 1: controlling and eventually both emotionally and physically abusive. In twenty fifteen,
- 9:29Speaker 1: Nicki called it quits. She packed her things and left
- 9:33Speaker 1: the house. One month later, she discovered that she was pregnant.
- 9:39Speaker 1: Nicki had a successful career with the Minneapolis p D.
- 9:43Speaker 1: In twenty sixteen, she gave birth to her son and
- 9:46Speaker 1: became a single, working mum. She was awarded full custody
- 9:50Speaker 1: of Callahan, a decision made after Niki told the courts
- 9:54Speaker 1: about Tim's abusive nature, how he had pulled her back
- 9:57Speaker 1: into the house by her ponytail when she he was
- 10:00Speaker 1: trying to leave him. Eventually, the two worked out arrangements
- 10:05Speaker 1: to share time with Callahan. The temporary peace did not last.
- 10:13Speaker 1: After Nicki met and became serious with her new boyfriend,
- 10:16Speaker 1: Minneapolis police officer Donovan Ford, Tim's controlling side flared up
- 10:21Speaker 1: all over again. He insisted on more and more time
- 10:24Speaker 1: with Callahan. He filed complaint after complaint in court and
- 10:28Speaker 1: with Child Protective Services. In the worst of his series
- 10:32Speaker 1: of allegations, Tim claimed that Donovan had molested his son
- 10:37Speaker 1: in Nicky's presence. The allegations against both Nicki and her
- 10:41Speaker 1: new man were found to be without merit. Indeed, the
- 10:45Speaker 1: five year old admitted that his father had told him
- 10:48Speaker 1: to lie when asked about the alleged incident so that
- 10:51Speaker 1: he could spend more time with Daddy. Relentless in his efforts,
- 10:57Speaker 1: Tim then filed a criminal complaint that a ledge that
- 11:00Speaker 1: Nicki had intentionally run over his foot with her car.
- 11:04Speaker 1: She went to trial to fight the assault charges, where
- 11:07Speaker 1: a jury rapidly found her not guilty. Eventually, Tim's regular
- 11:13Speaker 1: visitation was reduced to only supervised visits once a week.
- 11:18Speaker 1: These took place at the Family Wise on University Avenue.
- 11:23Speaker 1: It happened to be just outside those doors that Nicki
- 11:26Speaker 1: Lenway was ambushed and nearly killed back in twenty fifteen.
- 11:33Speaker 1: Just after Nickki packed up her things and left both
- 11:35Speaker 1: Tim and the house they had shared, the taekwondo master
- 11:39Speaker 1: moved in another woman, Eighteen year old Colleen Larsen, had
- 11:43Speaker 1: been a student of Master Amakers since she was twelve
- 11:46Speaker 1: years old. Moving into the spare room at his house
- 11:50Speaker 1: was said to be exciting for her, bringing the teenager
- 11:53Speaker 1: into regular close proximity to a man she had idolized
- 11:57Speaker 1: for years. According to former friends and neighbors, it wasn't
- 12:01Speaker 1: long before their master student relationship developed into something else.
- 12:07Speaker 1: Tim had a reputation as a ladies man, consistently dating
- 12:11Speaker 1: multiple women at the same time. This was true during
- 12:14Speaker 1: his time with Nicky and remained the case when he
- 12:17Speaker 1: began a romantic relationship with his young student, although she
- 12:22Speaker 1: considered herself his girlfriend, outside observers said that Colleen's role
- 12:27Speaker 1: could be more accurately described as Tim Amacker's servant. Over
- 12:32Speaker 1: the years that she lived at the house with him,
- 12:34Speaker 1: she cooked, cleaned, and even helped care for Callahan before
- 12:38Speaker 1: the supervised visitation was imposed. By the time of the
- 12:43Speaker 1: shooting in twenty twenty two, this had been going on
- 12:46Speaker 1: for years, all the while Colleen continued to call boyfriend
- 12:51Speaker 1: Tim master Amaker. Employees at the family wise suggested to
- 12:57Speaker 1: police that if it was a female shooter they were seen,
- 13:00Speaker 1: they should take a look at Colleen Larsen. The theory
- 13:08Speaker 1: linking Tim to the attempted murder through his young student
- 13:12Speaker 1: led to a search of the house in Saint Paul
- 13:14Speaker 1: where the couple lived. They recovered multiple firearms in the search,
- 13:18Speaker 1: but none of them was the three eighty caliber used
- 13:21Speaker 1: in the shooting. However, they found several three eighty discharged
- 13:25Speaker 1: cartridge cases. The Hennepin County Crime Lab later determined that
- 13:30Speaker 1: these were fired from the same gun as those found
- 13:33Speaker 1: discharged at the scene of the shooting. Investigators also learned
- 13:39Speaker 1: that Tim owned additional vehicles that he had not mentioned
- 13:42Speaker 1: to them when dropped off at his jeep on the
- 13:44Speaker 1: night of the shooting. This is your only come on,
- 13:47Speaker 1: I have a goshchunder too. It turns out that Tim
- 13:50Speaker 1: owned four vehicles in total. One of them was a
- 13:54Speaker 1: twenty twenty two black Dodge Ram purchased in January of
- 13:58Speaker 1: that year. It was id identical to the truck driven
- 14:01Speaker 1: by the shooter. Tim was brought in for questioning a
- 14:07Speaker 1: second time. Officers confronted him with the surveillance footage showing
- 14:11Speaker 1: the Dodge Ram. Tim denied that it was his truck
- 14:15Speaker 1: because it did not have two decals on it. These
- 14:18Speaker 1: were Superman symbols that adored his black pickup truck.
- 14:22Speaker 4: Or someone'll be the first guy he does.
- 14:24Speaker 5: Look at.
- 14:25Speaker 1: This is a picture right here that's not my truck.
- 14:30Speaker 1: The old pictures were not pictured of my front. Surveillance
- 14:35Speaker 1: of his vehicle the day following the shooting showed a
- 14:37Speaker 1: temporary license plate and the decals described by Tim to police. Curiously,
- 14:44Speaker 1: Tim had applied for a new personalized license plate on
- 14:47Speaker 1: April nineteenth, the day before the shooting. He claimed to
- 14:52Speaker 1: have swapped out the plate immediately. He was never driving
- 14:56Speaker 1: the truck without a plate as the shooter had been.
- 15:01Speaker 1: Verifying whether Tim Amaker's vehicle was the one driven by
- 15:04Speaker 1: the attacker proved to be a rather straightforward exercise. It
- 15:09Speaker 1: seems that the Dodge Ram was equipped with Wi Fi.
- 15:12Speaker 1: A search warrant obtained for its GPS data enabled investigators
- 15:16Speaker 1: to track the vehicle's exact movements and locations on the
- 15:20Speaker 1: day of the attempt at murder. At the same time,
- 15:23Speaker 1: cell phone location data from both Tim and Colleen's devices
- 15:27Speaker 1: were married up to the GPS tracking. Three hours before
- 15:31Speaker 1: Nikki was attacked, Colleen and Tim met at the Jim
- 15:35Speaker 1: Tim owned World Taekwondo Academy in White Bear Lake. There
- 15:40Speaker 1: they switched vehicles. Tim drove the Jeep to the Family
- 15:43Speaker 1: Wise building for his scheduled visit, while Colleen took the
- 15:47Speaker 1: Dodge First back to their house in Saint Paul. Then
- 15:51Speaker 1: she also drove to the Parenting Center. After the shooting,
- 15:56Speaker 1: she drove the Dodge Ram back to the Saint Paul
- 15:58Speaker 1: home using a similar route. Surveillance footage along the route
- 16:02Speaker 1: captured a female driver who matched Colleen's build driving the truck.
- 16:08Speaker 1: Tracking the movement of the truck just before the shooting,
- 16:10Speaker 1: investigators uncovered security camera footage from a KFC drive through.
- 16:16Speaker 1: It showed the truck with no decals and no license plate.
- 16:21Speaker 1: It was easy to deduce that these were added the
- 16:24Speaker 1: next morning in a failed attempt to disguise the vehicle.
- 16:30Speaker 1: In the same interview, Tim was asked what guns he owned.
- 16:34Speaker 1: At first, he did not mention a three eighty. When pressed,
- 16:38Speaker 1: he said he used to have two three eighty pistols.
- 16:44Speaker 1: Colleen Larson was arrested and charged with first degree attempted murder.
- 16:49Speaker 1: She had been caught on camera, tracked in the vehicle,
- 16:52Speaker 1: and lived at the home where the matching shell casings
- 16:54Speaker 1: were found. Although the motive pointed squarely at Tim Amaker,
- 16:58Speaker 1: the case against him was much weaker. That is, until
- 17:03Speaker 1: Colleen started talking. Colleen told the detectives, I took the
- 17:08Speaker 1: truck over there and then I shod her. When asked
- 17:11Speaker 1: whose idea it was to shoot Nikki, Colleen stated hesitantly Tim's.
- 17:17Speaker 1: But when she was asked outright, so Tim asked you,
- 17:20Speaker 1: if you felt comfortable, would you shoot Nicole? Colleen replied
- 17:24Speaker 1: simply yes. The student spoke softly and appeared reluctant to
- 17:30Speaker 1: blatantly point the finger at her instructor turned boyfriend. Tim
- 17:34Speaker 1: had told Colleen the same lies that he had told
- 17:37Speaker 1: to the courts and Child Protective Services that Nicki and
- 17:40Speaker 1: Donovan were abusing Callahan, except that Colleen believed him he
- 17:46Speaker 1: was doing bad things to the child and I wanted
- 17:49Speaker 1: to tumble the little maout. She claimed to have no
- 17:53Speaker 1: knowledge of how Tim disposed of the gun. Once the
- 17:56Speaker 1: deed was done, he took care of the rest. Timothy
- 18:01Speaker 1: Amaker was also charged with first degree attempted murder.
- 18:07Speaker 5: According to court documents, Larson hid behind a fence here
- 18:10Speaker 5: at the family Wise on University Avenue. Once the victim
- 18:14Speaker 5: got out of her car, she ran up from behind
- 18:16Speaker 5: and fired a few shots into her neck. Part of
- 18:18Speaker 5: the attack caught on these surveillance cameras. Amateur allegedly harassing
- 18:23Speaker 5: and stalking the victim over the last few years. Just
- 18:26Speaker 5: a few months ago, investigators say he even offered a
- 18:29Speaker 5: friend fifty thousand dollars to kill her.
- 18:34Speaker 1: The defense in Tim's trial called no witnesses. He did
- 18:38Speaker 1: not take the stand, but any concerns that the state
- 18:41Speaker 1: had not made their case dissipated quickly when the jury
- 18:45Speaker 1: returned promptly with a guilty verdict. Nicki Lenway, who had
- 18:51Speaker 1: in the interim married boyfriend at Donovan and became Nikki Ford,
- 18:55Speaker 1: spoke at the sentencing hearing. She requested that her face
- 18:59Speaker 1: not be captured in the recording. Tim Amiker faced up
- 19:02Speaker 1: to life in prison.
- 19:04Speaker 4: It has been over five years of threats and harassment,
- 19:07Speaker 4: preceded by another five years of mental, physical, and emotional abuse.
- 19:12Speaker 4: I fear for the day he is ultimately released.
- 19:14Speaker 1: He will not stop.
- 19:16Speaker 4: He is self serving, and I know losing this battle
- 19:19Speaker 4: will only fuel his rage further. I fear for anyone
- 19:22Speaker 4: who stands in his way, as he has the unlimited
- 19:25Speaker 4: capacity to cause chaos and destruction to those he deems
- 19:29Speaker 4: as adversaries. I asked that the Core protect not only me,
- 19:33Speaker 4: my son, and my family, but all of the others
- 19:35Speaker 4: that could suffer from his past and future fury.
- 19:39Speaker 1: The taekwondo instructor remained defiant, convinced that there was nothing
- 19:44Speaker 1: linking him to the shooting, and insisting that he had
- 19:47Speaker 1: been a victim of the system in various ways.
- 19:50Speaker 3: Over one hundred witnesses listed, and not one person could
- 19:53Speaker 3: say that they saw me do anything. Me and Miss
- 19:57Speaker 3: Reid still to this day question why I'm still sitting here.
- 20:02Speaker 3: It's obvious that miss Lenway got shot. I'm not denying that.
- 20:06Speaker 3: If we made him look like a bad guy, he
- 20:08Speaker 3: must be a bad guy.
- 20:09Speaker 2: I will note for the record that you have not
- 20:13Speaker 2: taken any accountability for your actions. You've shown no remorse.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Tim was sentenced to eighteen years in prison. Colleen Larson
- 20:23Speaker 1: pleaded guilty to attempted murder two weeks later. There was
- 20:27Speaker 1: no plea deal offered at her sentencing hearing. The topic
- 20:31Speaker 1: of discussion was the extent to which the now twenty
- 20:35Speaker 1: five year old had been groomed and manipulated by her
- 20:38Speaker 1: forty two year old instructor. She still believes now all
- 20:44Speaker 1: the lines that Omaka told her. Sure she's younger than him,
- 20:49Speaker 1: Sure he's charismatic and manipulative, but he's not a sorcerer.
- 20:53Speaker 1: Colleen remained loyal to Tim. She stated after the plea
- 20:57Speaker 1: that she had chosen to kill Nikki two weeks before
- 21:01Speaker 1: the shooting. Tim had in fact spoken to her about
- 21:04Speaker 1: how life would be easier if Nicki went away. In
- 21:08Speaker 1: that scenario, the two of them could be married, Colleen
- 21:11Speaker 1: could formally adopt Callahan as her own son, and they
- 21:15Speaker 1: would be a family together. She claimed that Tim was
- 21:19Speaker 1: unaware of her plans that night when she drove his
- 21:21Speaker 1: truck to the parenting center and tried to kill the
- 21:24Speaker 1: mother of his child. Nicki also spoke at Colleen's sentencing
- 21:30Speaker 1: she had been betrayed by the young student, whom she
- 21:33Speaker 1: had believed before the shooting was a good hearted woman
- 21:36Speaker 1: who loved and cared for her son.
- 21:40Speaker 4: She has admitted her intent and her eagerness to follow
- 21:43Speaker 4: through with such violent and traumatizing actions that fateful day
- 21:47Speaker 4: she stood over me, which felt like only inches away,
- 21:50Speaker 4: continuing in her attempts to end my life, even pursuing
- 21:54Speaker 4: me after I thought from married. She has even admitted
- 21:58Speaker 4: she had every intention of killing me, and admitting guilt
- 22:02Speaker 4: was essentially her only option. In her own words, she
- 22:05Speaker 4: wasn't manipulated into such actions and wanted to do this
- 22:09Speaker 4: on her own volition. In either instance, manipulation or her
- 22:13Speaker 4: own initiative is terrifying. She's either easily coerced into taking
- 22:18Speaker 4: a stranger's life based on a false reality and lies,
- 22:22Speaker 4: or she truly wanted to. I have been informed that
- 22:25Speaker 4: she is still in contact with Tim's inner circle, still
- 22:29Speaker 4: communicating her love for him, even expressing she wants a
- 22:32Speaker 4: future with him. Even today, almost a year later, she
