2:05
Speaker 1: So I was doing a wellness check on a good
2:09
Speaker 1: friend of mine that I was dating, and I found
2:13
Speaker 1: it weird because I haven't talked to him for like
2:14
Speaker 1: twenty four hours. What's his name, as Dalio Gutierres.
2:19
Speaker 11: You would always message me in the morning or message
2:22
Speaker 11: me good night. So I didn't get a text that night,
2:27
Speaker 11: and I.
2:28
Speaker 1: Just went to his house and his screen doors wide open, okad.
2:32
Speaker 1: I knocked on the door, and I saw something like
2:35
Speaker 1: scattered on the outside of the outside door.
2:39
Speaker 11: I think that's kind of when I got a very
2:42
Speaker 11: un easy feeling. I wasn't really expecting anything, you know,
2:48
Speaker 11: other than to find him there.
2:52
Speaker 1: And then I just you know, I kept calling his
2:54
Speaker 1: name and knocking on the windows and knocking on the
2:56
Speaker 1: door and.
2:57
Speaker 11: Called in, you know, and I didn't hear anybody in there.
3:01
Speaker 7: I didn't hear anything going on. I didn't get any answer.
3:11
Speaker 1: Inside. There's blood all over the floor in the living room,
3:15
Speaker 1: and I see him at all anywhere. I didn't go
3:17
Speaker 1: any further. Oh my god, I'm sorry. I'm kind of freaking.
3:26
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
3:27
Speaker 11: Obviously it was hurt something, you know, something bad happened.
3:30
Speaker 11: I guess I disbelieve was a lot of it and
3:36
Speaker 11: fear and what do I do now? You know, I
3:41
Speaker 11: have to stay right. But then now I'm also like
3:45
Speaker 11: thinking the worst.
3:46
Speaker 1: And you can't see him at all though I didn't
3:49
Speaker 1: go any further. No, I'm afraid. I just have blood
3:52
Speaker 1: on the floor and I don't that's not normal. Something
3:55
Speaker 1: something's not.
3:55
Speaker 11: Right, and I just I just kept saying, something's different,
3:59
Speaker 11: something different about this the room.
4:03
Speaker 7: There was a carpet here, and it's not there anymore.
4:06
Speaker 7: It's gone. There was a carpet there, it's gone.
4:10
Speaker 1: Should I go in? Do I not go in? I
4:12
Speaker 1: will try it.
4:12
Speaker 12: Up to you.
4:13
Speaker 1: But if you don't feel safe going and I don't
4:15
Speaker 1: suggest doing that, okay, Well, we do have an officer
4:17
Speaker 1: on the way.
4:20
Speaker 5: The officers with a notional police department responded to the
4:23
Speaker 5: Wood Creek apartment.
4:24
Speaker 9: It came in as a missing person.
4:26
Speaker 2: The resident was nowhere to be seen. They hadn't heard
4:30
Speaker 2: from him in a couple of days. Family friends. I
4:34
Speaker 2: did eventually do a walk through the apartment. I saw
4:37
Speaker 2: blood everywhere. It was on the walls, spatter on the walls,
4:43
Speaker 2: almost every wall.
4:44
Speaker 9: In the living room, it.
4:45
Speaker 5: Was evident that there was a struggle of some sort
4:49
Speaker 5: that had occurred.
4:50
Speaker 2: In the middle of the living room was a large
4:53
Speaker 2: pool of blood with a section of carpet. It was
4:56
Speaker 2: actually a rug that appeared to be missing. This was
5:00
Speaker 2: someone that was brutally attacked and it looked grim.
5:05
Speaker 5: We contacted local hospitals. We tried to do our best
5:09
Speaker 5: to determine where Rosalo could have been or could may
5:13
Speaker 5: have gone to.
5:14
Speaker 9: We tried via his cell phone.
5:18
Speaker 8: Your call has been forwarded to an automatic voice message system.
5:22
Speaker 5: Based on talking to the family and the close friends,
5:25
Speaker 5: that that definitely was unusual that that his phone was
5:29
Speaker 5: off and or going directly to voicemail.
5:34
Speaker 6: I knew in my heart and in my gut that
5:37
Speaker 6: my son wasn't responding to me, and I knew that
5:43
Speaker 6: something horrible had happened to him, that if he were
5:48
Speaker 6: able to.
5:48
Speaker 7: Call me, he would.
5:51
Speaker 13: Rosalio's mother, Celia Patterson, left immediately from her home in Colorado,
5:55
Speaker 13: strings for the sixteen hour drive to Kenosha straight to
5:59
Speaker 13: her son's apartment building.
6:01
Speaker 6: As I approached his front door, my heart shattered. I
6:10
Speaker 6: saw blood spatter on his front door, on the wall
6:15
Speaker 6: adjacent to it, some blood on the mailboxes. Sat on
6:20
Speaker 6: the stairway for a long period of time and just cried,
6:26
Speaker 6: where's my son? What happened to him? He was at home,
6:32
Speaker 6: he was in his apartment where he's supposed to be safe, and.
6:42
Speaker 7: I'm sorry.
6:45
Speaker 13: So now the search was on for Rosalio Gutierrez and
6:48
Speaker 13: anything in his background that might offer a clue as
6:51
Speaker 13: to what happened.
6:52
Speaker 2: I mean, it could be anything. Obviously, we look at
6:55
Speaker 2: everything from domestic to enemies, to finances to it could.
7:00
Speaker 9: Be a range of things.
7:02
Speaker 3: Is this someone who was kidnapped?
7:03
Speaker 14: You know?
7:03
Speaker 3: Is this someone that had you know, had some sort
7:05
Speaker 3: of mental health issue and you know left.
7:07
Speaker 6: He loved dancing, He enjoyed being with friends. He enjoyed
7:18
Speaker 6: the outdoors, hiking. He was a Cubs Cubs fan. As
7:24
Speaker 6: a dad, he loved his children. He was very involved
7:29
Speaker 6: with them baseball, with Cubs scouts, and with his daughter
7:35
Speaker 6: with gymnastics and dance. He ventured into flipping houses, you know,
7:41
Speaker 6: and working with contractors and that was his passion and
7:46
Speaker 6: he found his niche.
7:48
Speaker 5: We had, you know, immediately asked if there were any
7:53
Speaker 5: enemies that he may have, Any people maybe through a
7:56
Speaker 5: subcontracting that he owed money to or may have taken
8:00
Speaker 5: money from, and as well as just running a general
8:02
Speaker 5: criminal history, they may have contributed to what had happened.
8:06
Speaker 3: We were able to pretty quickly determine that he was
8:10
Speaker 3: exactly what he appeared to be, which was a family man,
8:12
Speaker 3: you know, kind of working his construction job to support
8:14
Speaker 3: his family.
8:16
Speaker 13: And then as his mother cleaned out Rosa Leo's apartment,
8:19
Speaker 13: a telling discovery.
8:21
Speaker 3: In the freezer of mister Gutier's apartment, behind some of
8:25
Speaker 3: the frozen food items, there was the wallet with the
8:29
Speaker 3: credit cards in it, and then the phone was on
8:30
Speaker 3: its side, kind of tucked back there. Kind of confirmed
8:33
Speaker 3: it for us that it was more than just you know,
8:36
Speaker 3: some sort of gone girl que escapade kind of a thing.
8:42
Speaker 11: I remember them asking the routine question, is there anybody
8:46
Speaker 11: that you know? I remember just telling them that, you know,
8:50
Speaker 11: I said, I've been having trouble with my ex.
8:55
Speaker 13: His name was Zachariah Anderson, involved in a bitter custody
8:59
Speaker 13: dispute Sadie, all playing out on phone calls he had recorded.
9:04
Speaker 4: I just told you it hurts.
9:06
Speaker 14: I'm jealous.
9:08
Speaker 11: You know something's not right here and I need to
9:13
Speaker 11: to protect myself and my kids.
9:16
Speaker 13: And Sadie told detectives their twelve year old daughter might
9:19
Speaker 13: know more about the missing Rosalio Gutierres.
9:24
Speaker 7: She immediately says to me, where's dad. You need to
9:28
Speaker 7: find dad. He knows where he is. And I said,
9:31
Speaker 7: why would you say that?
9:33
Speaker 11: She said, Bob, I know more than you think I do.
9:45
Speaker 11: Zach and I met back in like two thousand and seven.
9:48
Speaker 11: We got pregnant with our daughter. We were pretty new
9:54
Speaker 11: to each other, so just decided to start the family.
10:00
Speaker 13: Sadie Beacham and Zachariah Anderson had three children together over
10:04
Speaker 13: their years as a couple. They're now twelve year old
10:07
Speaker 13: daughter and twin five year old boys.
10:10
Speaker 7: I kept trying to stay together for the kid's sake.
10:15
Speaker 13: It was a turbulent relationship, hot and cold, and Sadie
10:19
Speaker 13: finally decided to call it quits.
10:22
Speaker 11: It was his violent outburst, It was his personality. You know,
10:26
Speaker 11: that's very angry, I want.
10:28
Speaker 7: To say, but like mean person. He wasn't nice. He
10:33
Speaker 7: just wasn't kind, He wasn't nice.
10:35
Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out how I really feel about things.
10:38
Speaker 6: And then you do stop and I'm.
10:40
Speaker 7: Like, no, it's jealousy. It's the ugly version. It's like, yeah,
10:48
Speaker 7: it's jealousy.
10:49
Speaker 14: It's the sickening feeling of that ugly evil And I'm sorry.
10:55
Speaker 11: It was always just you know, you're out pouring around
10:59
Speaker 11: or like it, like I shouldn't be out dating anybody,
11:03
Speaker 11: or I don't have the right to date somebody.
11:06
Speaker 7: I should be at home being a mom.
11:08
Speaker 9: Listen, listen.
11:09
Speaker 14: As far as knowing is concerned, I don't want the details.
11:12
Speaker 14: I want confirmation that my suspicions are accurate. Because if
11:16
Speaker 14: my suspicions are accurate and you're in a relationship with
11:18
Speaker 14: somebody else, then then it better matter because I'm not
11:24
Speaker 14: going to try and compete with some other guy for
11:26
Speaker 14: your interest Sadie.
11:27
Speaker 9: If you've moved on, you moved on.
11:31
Speaker 13: And Zach became aware that that somebody else was tis.
11:36
Speaker 11: I had been just kind of dabbling on Facebook dating,
11:43
Speaker 11: and that's when I met Rosalio and then just had
11:47
Speaker 11: a good conversation and it kind of went from there.
11:50
Speaker 14: I've confirmed that you were having you've taken an interest
11:52
Speaker 14: in other guys, and I've I've painfully enough, I've already done.
11:58
Speaker 8: That, ye would, You're done great?
12:01
Speaker 14: And the guy that stole the mother of my child.
12:03
Speaker 9: Anybody, he can't steal anything, all right?
12:06
Speaker 1: And I wasn't yours to fucking steal, wasn't yours to steal.
12:11
Speaker 4: When he saw she was truly interested in this new individual, rosalio, uh,
12:16
Speaker 4: he immediately started doing things like buying trackers and following
12:20
Speaker 4: people around.
12:22
Speaker 13: A large picture window makes it easy to see inside
12:25
Speaker 13: Sadie's living room.
12:26
Speaker 10: And you're not listening to me, fucking evidence that you
12:29
Speaker 10: were fucking stalking me. I'm not stalking you.
12:32
Speaker 1: You did here in the middle of the fucking night.
12:36
Speaker 1: I saw your car. You're writing to me, I saw
12:39
Speaker 1: you pull away, I saw the car.
12:41
Speaker 12: You were here, and you're fucking.
12:43
Speaker 1: Fighting on me.
12:44
Speaker 10: Holy shit, Well, I'm.
12:45
Speaker 1: Not fucking idiot.
12:47
Speaker 15: Are you gonna tell me the shirt?
12:48
Speaker 16: Now?
12:49
Speaker 8: He was worried about his children, and he would have
12:51
Speaker 8: hoped that she could have done better for their kids.
12:54
Speaker 8: That was all he ever really said to me about
12:57
Speaker 8: the nature of Sadie. And and Rosalio's relationship.
13:02
Speaker 13: On the day Rosalio was discovered, Missy Kenosha police detectives
13:06
Speaker 13: brought Sadie and her daughter in for question.
13:11
Speaker 5: When we've initially spoke with her, she was very shaken up.
13:15
Speaker 5: She was very distraught and concerned. Her ex boyfriend and
13:19
Speaker 5: the father of her children, Zachari Anderson, had been tracking
13:23
Speaker 5: her and stalking her and following her to places, and
13:28
Speaker 5: she had a feeling that maybe he was involved.
13:33
Speaker 3: It was pretty clear from about that point on that
13:37
Speaker 3: the daughter was being used to report on. Was mom
13:40
Speaker 3: talking to people, you know? Was there anyone new in
13:43
Speaker 3: her life? Was there any thing kind of going on.
13:46
Speaker 2: She said that Zachariah had made her go to the
13:49
Speaker 2: window to look at what was happening, and at one
13:53
Speaker 2: point actually had her cover her face so the steam
13:57
Speaker 2: from her breath wasn't getting on the window, which would
14:00
Speaker 2: be seen from the inside.
14:03
Speaker 11: Yeah, we were just sitting on the couch watching TV,
14:05
Speaker 11: and we were snuggled up next to each other.
14:08
Speaker 5: She had told us that he had put a cell
14:10
Speaker 5: phone in by the air conditioning unit to try to
14:13
Speaker 5: video what was going on. He basically wanted her to
14:16
Speaker 5: see her mom with somebody else.
14:21
Speaker 3: It's actually one of the things she said, I was
14:23
Speaker 3: his spy.
14:24
Speaker 9: It fucking burns. I can't unsee things.
14:27
Speaker 8: Fuck it hurts, makes me sick.
14:29
Speaker 9: Can't fucking undo it.
14:37
Speaker 13: But with Rosalio still missing, there was not enough evidence
14:40
Speaker 13: to warrant a charge of murder.
14:43
Speaker 5: We then started to look at zach Raya up from
14:46
Speaker 5: a stalking aspect, so it was almost as if there
14:49
Speaker 5: were signed two cases or two investigations going on at once.
14:53
Speaker 9: In state Wisconsin, stalking is a felony.
14:56
Speaker 5: He was held in the Kenosha County Jail on the
14:58
Speaker 5: evening of the nineteenth.
15:01
Speaker 3: The most important thing for us was to get him
15:03
Speaker 3: in custody and get him in custody on something we
15:05
Speaker 3: believed we could hold him on for the long term.
15:08
Speaker 3: At that point, there was a small chance that maybe
15:10
Speaker 3: mister Gutiraz was still alive.
15:12
Speaker 12: Somewhere pre Obra three to four or five to five.
15:23
Speaker 4: I've never seen more police effort to find a missing individual.
15:28
Speaker 5: The Anderson family had a tree farm that was located
15:33
Speaker 5: in Sheboygan County. We had an excess of I believe
15:38
Speaker 5: eighty law enforcement officers that did a search through that
15:42
Speaker 5: walking side by side along with three kadaverdogs.
15:47
Speaker 2: We turned over every rock we possibly could in this investigation.
15:52
Speaker 3: You know, we continue to have hope that we would
15:54
Speaker 3: be able to find mister Gutierrez because we kept having
15:57
Speaker 3: new leads and where he could be.
16:00
Speaker 13: One promising lead led to a state park and a
16:03
Speaker 13: small lake. They were a job site where Anderson had
16:05
Speaker 13: been working.
16:07
Speaker 5: They had an underwater like robot style vessel that they
16:10
Speaker 5: were able to put down there with a camera.
16:12
Speaker 6: I always thought that he would be there or somewhere
16:14
Speaker 6: around that vicinity, but nothing has come up.
16:18
Speaker 13: Detectives had used Anderson's phone to track where he went
16:21
Speaker 13: on the day Rosalalo disappeared, but.
16:24
Speaker 5: We also knew that he didn't take his phone everywhere.
16:27
Speaker 5: Mister Anderson had not used his phone for two to
16:30
Speaker 5: three hours prior to the disappearance and up until approximately
16:34
Speaker 5: two and a half hours after the disappearance.
16:38
Speaker 13: Anderson denied he was anywhere near Rosalieo's apartment building on
16:43
Speaker 13: the day of the disappearance.
16:44
Speaker 2: He initially said, well, he said he couldn't remember. Then
16:48
Speaker 2: he said he may have been home AT's sleep, he
16:50
Speaker 2: may have been with his girlfriend.
16:58
Speaker 13: But Anderson's phone was on when he went to a
17:00
Speaker 13: local walmart and police got the surveillance video.
17:04
Speaker 5: There were rubber gloves that were purchased, there were bleach
17:09
Speaker 5: wipes that were purchased, there was garbage bags that were purchased.
17:14
Speaker 4: Things that, from our perspective, were certainly consistent with a
17:18
Speaker 4: person disposing of a body.
17:20
Speaker 13: Detectives now had more than enough probable cause for an
17:24
Speaker 13: intensive search of Anderson's home.
17:28
Speaker 5: It was approximately a four acre of property in the
17:30
Speaker 5: mech One, Wisconsin area.
17:32
Speaker 3: Ultimately, what they were able to find there was incredibly crucial.
17:35
Speaker 2: There's this smoldering fire going on in the fronting ard
17:38
Speaker 2: of the house, all kinds of red flags going up
17:41
Speaker 2: with our finding.
17:42
Speaker 13: There, and inside the house a huge amount of cash.
17:47
Speaker 3: It was in a Wells fargo bag. It was about
17:50
Speaker 3: forty seven thousand and some change and it was all
17:53
Speaker 3: in twenties. We knew he was a drug dealer. He
17:55
Speaker 3: was pending a sentencing on a delivery of or transporting
17:58
Speaker 3: marijuana charge out of Health Dakota, and he knew that
18:01
Speaker 3: he was likely headed to prison here shortly. I think
18:04
Speaker 3: he did not wish to have another man in his
18:07
Speaker 3: kid's life for however long he was going to be
18:09
Speaker 3: gone We ended up coming up with the theory that
18:12
Speaker 3: that would have been his money to run with if
18:14
Speaker 3: he would have known that the police were looking for him.
18:17
Speaker 13: And Anderson's computer revealed even more.
18:21
Speaker 4: He was keeping track of Rosalio Gutierrez. He had an
18:25
Speaker 4: extensive file on Rosalio Gutierrez, including a number of pictures
18:29
Speaker 4: of Rosalio with his young children. He had texted a
18:33
Speaker 4: number of times things that I consider abusive and threatening
18:38
Speaker 4: regarding Rosalio Gutierrez. The weakness of the case was, you know,
18:56
Speaker 4: Rosalio was a fairly large guy, and so you know,
19:00
Speaker 4: the question we always had was how would the defendant
19:03
Speaker 4: bring him from that apartment to the van.
19:06
Speaker 13: There were no surveillance cameras around the apartment complex, no witnesses,
19:11
Speaker 13: and none of Anderson's DNA was found inside Rosa Leo's apartment.
19:16
Speaker 4: Those were the things that I worried that a jury
19:18
Speaker 4: would would at some point focus on.
19:20
Speaker 13: But the turning point of the case came after a
19:23
Speaker 13: thorough search of Anderson's van.
19:30
Speaker 2: I saw bleach stains on the van. Inside, on the carpet,
19:34
Speaker 2: the seats are removed, and there was a chunk of
19:36
Speaker 2: carpet missing.
19:37
Speaker 13: And a tiny spot marked with evidence number A one
19:41
Speaker 13: that appeared to be the color of blood.
19:43
Speaker 3: One little spec I would say it was less than
19:45
Speaker 3: a millimeter across.
19:46
Speaker 13: There wasn't even enough for the state lab technicians to
19:49
Speaker 13: test it for both blood and for DNA.
19:52
Speaker 3: They were able to pull it out and then make
19:55
Speaker 3: the decision to swab it for DNA, and which ultimately
19:57
Speaker 3: was obviously the right call because it gave them a
20:00
Speaker 3: very robust profile that matched mister Gutierrez. How did mister
20:03
Speaker 3: Gutiers's blood end up in mister Anderson's van when we
20:07
Speaker 3: know that those two had never met.
20:14
Speaker 13: Zachariah Anderson was charged with first degree murder even though
20:18
Speaker 13: there was still nobody seven months after Rosalieo disappeared.
20:24
Speaker 9: I don't know that he's dead.
20:25
Speaker 8: Nobody proved that he's dead.
20:27
Speaker 9: Is it likely? Maybe?
20:29
Speaker 1: Sure?
20:31
Speaker 8: Is it proven? No? How do we know that Rosalia
20:34
Speaker 8: didn't get hit in the head, get up, get confused,
20:37
Speaker 8: get up and try and make his way out of
20:39
Speaker 8: the patio door, and just disappear into the night.
20:51
Speaker 6: I was not going to miss any court proceeding. I
20:55
Speaker 6: would like to think that I showed him that my son,
20:58
Speaker 6: although gone, he is not forgotten.
21:01
Speaker 13: Zachary Er. Anderson's family was also present, including his brother Solomon.
21:06
Speaker 8: I asked him, hell, what really happened? Did you do this?
21:10
Speaker 8: He said no, I'm innocent. He said, good, he didn't
21:14
Speaker 8: commit this crime. Don't get me wrong. He's not a
21:16
Speaker 8: perfect human being, but he's still a good man.
21:20
Speaker 4: Lazies, gentlemen, Judge, Ladies, gentleman of the panel, thank you.
21:25
Speaker 4: I had never done a bodyless homicide before, there was
21:28
Speaker 4: a rare in Wisconsin. How do you prove beyond a
21:31
Speaker 4: reasonable doubt to twelve people who don't know this case,
21:34
Speaker 4: that someone is murdered and deceased when you don't have
21:37
Speaker 4: the body. There's been no evidence that his credit cards,
21:41
Speaker 4: or his bank accounts, or any other identifying pieces of
21:46
Speaker 4: that type have been used ever in they eighteen days
21:51
Speaker 4: since the home you'll see the pictures is filled with
21:56
Speaker 4: pictures of his two children, eleven and eight. He has
22:01
Speaker 4: missed their birthdays. He and his mother had a very
22:06
Speaker 4: close relationship, very close, and he has missed all of
22:10
Speaker 4: her important occasions in the last thy and eighteen.
22:14
Speaker 13: Days, and District Attorney Michael Gravely said it was all
22:18
Speaker 13: driven by Zachariah Anderson's jealous rage over Sades's new boyfriend.
22:23
Speaker 4: And that he has an overwhelming need in that jealousy
22:27
Speaker 4: to be in absolute control when it comes to see.
22:32
Speaker 4: Officers eventually get into the defendant's laptop. Picture after picture
22:37
Speaker 4: screenshots of Facebook photos of Rosalio Gutierrez out socializing, but
22:46
Speaker 4: also a number of pictures of him with his kids,
22:49
Speaker 4: and we're going to show those to you to let
22:50
Speaker 4: you think about whether this is obsessive sign of dangerous behavior.
22:58
Speaker 4: So you'll hear about the act itself. Well, you'll hear
23:01
Speaker 4: from people who love and care about Roussalio Gutierrez that
23:05
Speaker 4: he is gone. And when you combine all of those
23:08
Speaker 4: pieces of evidence, then from the stage perspective, you will
23:11
Speaker 4: have enough evidence and will hold the defendant response.
23:18
Speaker 17: You may proceed.
23:19
Speaker 13: Thank you, jo.
23:21
Speaker 15: The essence of this case is actually quite simple. At
23:25
Speaker 15: the end of the day, law enforcement nor the state
23:28
Speaker 15: have no idea what happened to mister Gutierz's body. They
23:34
Speaker 15: don't know when exactly anything happened in mister Gutier's apartment.
23:41
Speaker 15: They have no idea where any alleged remains of mister
23:46
Speaker 15: Gutier's body is. They have none of that there are
23:51
Speaker 15: no witnesses. They ignored the idea that it could be
23:55
Speaker 15: anyone else other than mister Anderson. Not only did they
23:59
Speaker 15: search his house, they also searched his family's tree farm.
24:03
Speaker 15: No body, no human remains, no murder weapon, no evidence
24:07
Speaker 15: of a crime scene clean up. Sir Anderson, as he
24:10
Speaker 15: sits in front of you today, is presumed innocent and
24:14
Speaker 15: he must stay that way because the evidence in this case,
24:19
Speaker 15: as it will come in through this trial, will not
24:21
Speaker 15: establish that mister Anderson committed the alleged crimes beyond a
24:26
Speaker 15: reasonable doubt. We will ask that you return the only
24:30
Speaker 15: just verdict, and that's a verdict of not guilty.
24:34
Speaker 5: Thank you.
24:41
Speaker 18: The same with call Celia Patterson to the stand. Mister Patterson,
24:47
Speaker 18: do you know someone by the name of Rosolio Gutierrez
24:50
Speaker 18: Jor I do, and who was mister Buttier's junior to you?
24:56
Speaker 16: He was my only child.
24:59
Speaker 13: Celia Paterson was no stranger to a courtroom, having worked
25:02
Speaker 13: as a victim's advocate for district attorneys in Colorado and Wisconsin.
25:07
Speaker 6: Never in my lifetime would I imagine that then my
25:11
Speaker 6: son would have been taken and that I was a
25:15
Speaker 6: victim myself.
25:16
Speaker 18: Never I'm just gonna show you States Exhibit fifty five,
25:21
Speaker 18: Missus Patterson, Is that one of the last pictures that
25:25
Speaker 18: your son sent you on May sixteenth of twenty twenty.
25:33
Speaker 16: It is?
25:36
Speaker 18: And after that conversation where that picture was sent to you,
25:40
Speaker 18: have you heard from your son ever?
25:42
Speaker 9: Again?
25:43
Speaker 4: My boy doesn't new stuff.
25:46
Speaker 11: My boy's book.
25:51
Speaker 13: There were tears in the courtroom, but not from Zachariah Anderson.
25:55
Speaker 8: A lot of people were critical about his facial expressions
25:57
Speaker 8: and whether or not he was empathetic. How are you
26:00
Speaker 8: empathetic about something that you didn't do. You're not going
26:03
Speaker 8: to have remorse for a crime that you didn't commit.
26:13
Speaker 18: Could you please state your name for the record, spell
26:15
Speaker 18: at Stadie Beacham, Sadi e Ba c Cham.
26:22
Speaker 7: Nothing really prepares you for that.
26:26
Speaker 11: It's a whole different kind of traumatizing experience, adds another
26:30
Speaker 11: layer of trauma that you just can't.
26:35
Speaker 7: Can't imagine.
26:37
Speaker 3: What was the status of your relationship with the defendant
26:40
Speaker 3: romantically during twenty nineteen.
26:43
Speaker 7: It was not we weren't we weren't doing well.
26:48
Speaker 11: It was.
26:52
Speaker 7: It was a relationship on its way out.
26:55
Speaker 3: She did a very good job, I think, in humanizing
26:58
Speaker 3: herself in terms of the relationship, but in terms of
27:01
Speaker 3: also the complex emotions and problems with when you have
27:05
Speaker 3: three kids with someone who's now starting to stalk you
27:08
Speaker 3: and track you.
27:10
Speaker 18: In this text message, obviously someone is being referred to
27:14
Speaker 18: as booger. Who did the defendant mean in your understanding
27:17
Speaker 18: to be booker?
27:18
Speaker 4: And how do you know that? Zach Raia told me.
27:22
Speaker 16: The night that he divulged, that he was there looking
27:25
Speaker 16: in the window that he saw Rosalio pick his nose
27:30
Speaker 16: and wipe it on the couch, and so he then
27:34
Speaker 16: started to refer to him as booger.
27:38
Speaker 13: But on cross examination, Sadie admitted that Rosalio had told
27:42
Speaker 13: her he might go beat up Zach.
27:45
Speaker 15: You send mister Gutierrez a text that says Zachariah Anderson
27:50
Speaker 15: lives in Mequon, correct, Yes, said well, I guess if
27:54
Speaker 15: he is your info, you should have his correct. Yes,
27:58
Speaker 15: And he says he can have all my info. I
28:00
Speaker 15: want him to know exactly who beat his ass up.
28:03
Speaker 4: Correct.
28:05
Speaker 15: Then he says there needs to be consequences for his actions.
28:09
Speaker 18: Correct.
28:10
Speaker 1: Correct.
28:12
Speaker 8: So if Rosalio himself said that he was going to
28:15
Speaker 8: go give him a taste of his own medicine, how
28:16
Speaker 8: do we know that he didn't?
28:22
Speaker 4: How old are you today?
28:24
Speaker 19: Fourteen years old?
28:25
Speaker 4: And what is your mom's name, Sadie Beacham?
28:28
Speaker 19: And what is your father's name, Zachariah Anderson.
28:35
Speaker 13: Sadie Beacham didn't want her daughter to have to testify
28:38
Speaker 13: against your father.
28:40
Speaker 4: It was hesitant, But there are moments where you know
28:43
Speaker 4: you are required to have people tell the truth and
28:47
Speaker 4: they're the only ones who know a certain truth. Back
28:50
Speaker 4: in the time period of April twenty fourth of twenty
28:55
Speaker 4: and twenty, were you asked by anyone to spy on
29:00
Speaker 4: anyone else? During that time period where you asked by
29:03
Speaker 4: anyone to spy on anybody else?
29:05
Speaker 20: Yes, who asked you to.
29:07
Speaker 4: Spy on someone?
29:10
Speaker 19: My dad?
29:11
Speaker 4: And who did your dad ask you to spy on
29:15
Speaker 4: my mom?
29:16
Speaker 11: I don't think that was easy at all for her,
29:20
Speaker 11: and it was very difficult to watch.
29:23
Speaker 4: What do you remember happening?
29:25
Speaker 9: Next?
29:26
Speaker 19: He jumps onto the porch and looks through my mom's
29:29
Speaker 19: window with a camera.
29:30
Speaker 4: Then what happened?
29:32
Speaker 19: And then he is looking through the window recording with
29:38
Speaker 19: not a camera like a phone recorder, but a handheld recorder.
29:42
Speaker 4: Okay, Then what happened next?
29:45
Speaker 19: And he came to the car and asked me if
29:47
Speaker 19: I would like to see you, and I said, yeah.
29:50
Speaker 4: What's the next thing that.
29:51
Speaker 19: Happened, mister guccier is I guess?
29:54
Speaker 11: Okay?
29:55
Speaker 19: And I saw him sitting on the couch with my
29:57
Speaker 19: mother coming out of the bathroom, and I think that
30:05
Speaker 19: has given me the sorry. They're listening to music and together.
30:14
Speaker 4: And where is the defendant during that period of time
30:17
Speaker 4: standing next to me?
30:18
Speaker 9: Okay.
30:20
Speaker 13: At one point, her father appeared to be trying to
30:22
Speaker 13: send a signal to her to be quiet.
30:25
Speaker 21: Things came to a screeching halt when during his daughter's testimony,
30:28
Speaker 21: prosecutors say that Sanderson Anderson actually signaled to her to
30:31
Speaker 21: stop talking or close her mouth.
30:33
Speaker 8: So this is a situation where where my niece was
30:36
Speaker 8: acting out on the stand and she was trying to
30:39
Speaker 8: talk to him, So he couldn't stop from being a
30:42
Speaker 8: dad even in this situation.
30:45
Speaker 21: Meantime, the defense claimed that her mother, Sadie Beacham, who
30:48
Speaker 21: was also in the gallery, may have been doing some
30:50
Speaker 21: sign language herself to tell her daughter what to say.
30:53
Speaker 4: Were you communicating with her in any other way without
30:58
Speaker 4: your hands, either facial expression or whatever.
31:02
Speaker 11: There was a moment where she got a little sassy
31:06
Speaker 11: up here, and my initial mom response was to go
31:11
Speaker 11: So if I did that, that would have been the
31:12
Speaker 11: only thing that I can recall I did.
31:14
Speaker 9: Okay.
31:16
Speaker 13: In the end, the judge told Deanerson's daughter she should
31:19
Speaker 13: not try to communicate with her parents during her testimony.
31:22
Speaker 3: She was incredibly conflicted, and unfortunately, as a fourteen year old,
31:26
Speaker 3: she had to kind of meander her way through that.
31:29
Speaker 15: And you said you saw your dad with a recording
31:33
Speaker 15: device and that you also saw your dad put a
31:37
Speaker 15: cell phone into the air conditioning unit. Correct, during this time,
31:44
Speaker 15: you are still in the vehicle.
31:47
Speaker 7: Yes, it's dark.
31:49
Speaker 19: Outside, but light enough where you can still see.
31:54
Speaker 15: You said it was the middle of the night.
31:56
Speaker 7: It is.
31:57
Speaker 19: That doesn't mean I have twenty twenty visions so I
32:00
Speaker 19: can see.
32:01
Speaker 11: Oh, okay, I think she did amazing. I'm super proud
32:06
Speaker 11: of her. I'm proud of her for just telling her truth.
32:21
Speaker 3: Knowing what we know about mister Anderson, I knew that
32:24
Speaker 3: he would want to testify because he had to sit
32:26
Speaker 3: there for what amounted to about three solid weeks and
32:29
Speaker 3: listen to people say pretty horrible things about him.
32:32
Speaker 17: Mister Anderson, you are not obliged to say anything at
32:37
Speaker 17: all in this case testify in any way? Do you
32:42
Speaker 17: have any questions about this at all?
32:48
Speaker 10: I think all the questions I have are now sitting
32:51
Speaker 10: with at least two of my three attorneys.
32:53
Speaker 19: And I think they're pretty clear on how things.
32:56
Speaker 6: Are going to go.
32:57
Speaker 3: He made it very clear in the courtroom to the
32:59
Speaker 3: judge that his attorneys had advised him not to testify,
33:02
Speaker 3: and he was going to follow their advice.
33:04
Speaker 17: Has anybody threatened you or pressured you, or a forced
33:06
Speaker 17: you in any way.
33:09
Speaker 19: In any way regarding.
33:10
Speaker 17: My decision about testimony? No, is your mind clear today?
33:15
Speaker 6: We've saw you.
33:15
Speaker 17: Are you feeling all right?
33:17
Speaker 6: What does that can be?
33:24
Speaker 17: Mister Gregory of the floor.
33:26
Speaker 4: Thank you, your honor.
33:27
Speaker 19: Earth.
33:27
Speaker 4: This is a highly planned, thought out and executed crime
33:33
Speaker 4: of murder, and so I want you to think about
33:37
Speaker 4: who there is in this case who has shown a propensity, right,
33:42
Speaker 4: who has shown day after day in the conduct that
33:46
Speaker 4: we have outlined patterns of that sort of planning, that
33:50
Speaker 4: sort of obsessive conduct. All of the things that happened
33:54
Speaker 4: and the evidence in this case could not have happened
33:57
Speaker 4: to an innocent man, right, So I think I made
33:59
Speaker 4: essentially an unluckiest man in the world. Kind of argument. Right,
34:02
Speaker 4: here's how unlucky you are if you're an innocent, falsely
34:05
Speaker 4: accused guy. All the electronics, all of the electronics in
34:11
Speaker 4: this case, backup, Sadie Beacham, would you be an innocent
34:15
Speaker 4: and falsely accused man who has your daughter? Say all
34:17
Speaker 4: those things, including I may just watch him or follow
34:21
Speaker 4: him to his house one time, just for the fun
34:23
Speaker 4: of him. And when you put all this evidence together,
34:27
Speaker 4: you will say to yourself, it was quite a plan,
34:31
Speaker 4: but it is not a plan that in the end
34:33
Speaker 4: can succeed because it is betrayed by that speck of
34:37
Speaker 4: blood of Rosalio Gutierrez. And you will find this defendant responsible,
34:42
Speaker 4: and you will hold him responsible despite this plan that
34:46
Speaker 4: he tried everything he could to avoid responsibility.
34:50
Speaker 1: Think you.
34:57
Speaker 9: Other morning, ladies and gentlemen.
34:59
Speaker 20: Nobody knows where Rosalio Hutierrez is. Nobody knows what happened
35:04
Speaker 20: to Rosalieu Huti's. Mister Graveley talks about how unlucky someone
35:09
Speaker 20: would have to be with all of this stuff, all
35:11
Speaker 20: these theories as to what had happened, the things that
35:14
Speaker 20: he suggests to you, the thing and the maybes and
35:16
Speaker 20: the what ifs. It's also interesting to note that a
35:22
Speaker 20: killer would have to be the luckiest person on the
35:24
Speaker 20: planet to be able to do this crime and not
35:28
Speaker 20: leave any DNA behind it the scene. That is impossible.
35:34
Speaker 20: This is a defense Exhibit three point forty. These are
35:37
Speaker 20: the photographs of Zachariah Anderson's hands right after he was arrested.
35:44
Speaker 20: Do not look like the hands of a man that
35:46
Speaker 20: just committed a violent attack.
35:49
Speaker 2: On somebody else two days before?
35:51
Speaker 20: And I'd ask, how is it possible for a man
35:55
Speaker 20: that has a history of back problems to wrap up
36:02
Speaker 20: a large man the size of Rosa Leogin, spirits into
36:05
Speaker 20: a carpet soaked with blood, and somehow lift that person outs.
36:09
Speaker 20: This entire case is built on possibilities and a series
36:13
Speaker 20: of what if questions, and it's an assembly of guessing.
36:19
Speaker 20: The tragedy is that the real killer is not being caught,
36:23
Speaker 20: if in fact it was Aliogen's dead. Zachari Anderson is
36:26
Speaker 20: not guilty.
36:34
Speaker 13: It took the jury two days to reach verdicts on
36:37
Speaker 13: the four counts against Anderson murder, two counts of stalking,
36:41
Speaker 13: and one count of hiding a corpse.
36:46
Speaker 3: Our greatest fear was that they didn't think we had
36:48
Speaker 3: proved that he was dead to begin with.
36:50
Speaker 13: Members of Rosaalio's family came wearing the jerseys of his
36:53
Speaker 13: favorite baseball team, the Chicago Cubs.
36:56
Speaker 6: We did it in his memory. We couldn't use anything
36:59
Speaker 6: that had his picture, but we all wore Cubs blue
37:04
Speaker 6: or T shirts, sweatshirts, hats.
37:07
Speaker 17: If there's any kind of behavior that is in the
37:11
Speaker 17: least bit disruptive without even needing to hear anything from me,
37:18
Speaker 17: you will be removed from the court.
37:20
Speaker 13: And deputies were keeping a close eye on Anderson too.
37:24
Speaker 8: They had like forty thousand vaults strapped to his leg.
37:27
Speaker 8: It was a safety is if just in case he
37:29
Speaker 8: were to like do something or act out or go
37:32
Speaker 8: after someone you know. And there's one of the three
37:36
Speaker 8: deputies in the in the courtroom that was that was
37:39
Speaker 8: holding the trigger for that.
37:45
Speaker 17: The defender will rise faced the jury and arken to
37:48
Speaker 17: its verdicts.
37:51
Speaker 22: And Ray and at a State of Wisconsin versus Zachariah
37:54
Speaker 22: Joseph Anderson, jury, I had defended and you'll be a
38:00
Speaker 22: stocky city beachon as charged guilty.
38:05
Speaker 9: A stocky was all your you tiras as charge.
38:11
Speaker 22: As to the third count of the information, we the
38:18
Speaker 22: jury fire the defendant.
38:23
Speaker 9: Is Zacharan Anderson.
38:33
Speaker 22: Guilty of intentional homicide degree ass charge.
38:42
Speaker 13: And guilty of the last charge of hiding a corpse.
38:46
Speaker 17: All right, ord ex finding the defendant guilty as to
38:50
Speaker 17: each count of the information. Yeah, you may be seated
38:59
Speaker 17: the state against Zachariah Anderson.
39:09
Speaker 8: This beach you.
39:11
Speaker 11: I've endured some tough losses, but no one could have
39:14
Speaker 11: prepared me for this kind of loss, loss of dignity
39:18
Speaker 11: and self esteem in a relationship that was manipulative, and
39:24
Speaker 11: I'm mostly abusive, and I cannot fix the damage you've done,
39:28
Speaker 11: but I can minimize the long term effects, and I
39:30
Speaker 11: intend to do that with love in my.
39:32
Speaker 7: Heart every day.
39:37
Speaker 13: And then Anderson's daughter, whose testimony helped to convict.
39:41
Speaker 19: Him, I never thought seven years ago this was the
39:45
Speaker 19: way met my mommy and my dead story ended. It
39:50
Speaker 19: breaks my heart to this day knowing things will never
39:52
Speaker 19: be this same. To this day, I wonder did he
39:56
Speaker 19: ever love me? Or was I just a pawn a.
40:00
Speaker 7: Or is it a golden retriever?
40:03
Speaker 19: You took me for granted and you will never get
40:05
Speaker 19: the same respect back. I've worked at myself for the
40:09
Speaker 19: past three years. It's your turn now if you want
40:12
Speaker 19: your baby girl back.
40:19
Speaker 6: Your honor. The selfish and monstrous actions mister Anderson took Sunday,
40:24
Speaker 6: May seventeen, twenty twenty forever altered accomplished lives. I no
40:29
Speaker 6: longer have the hugs and kisses of my son. What
40:33
Speaker 6: did he do with my son's body?
40:38
Speaker 17: All right, mister Anderson, is there anything you wish to
40:41
Speaker 17: say before sentence is pronounced.
40:46
Speaker 10: What I can tell you is I didn't kill anybody.
40:49
Speaker 10: But I can't tell you is I didn't stalk anybody.
40:52
Speaker 10: What I can't tell you is I didn't dispose of
40:54
Speaker 10: any corpse menacing. And if I killed somebody, situation was.
41:01
Speaker 10: I can tell you in my own heart it wouldn't
41:03
Speaker 10: be intentional if I didn't at all. Guy, I never
41:07
Speaker 10: met I don't really know. I don't really know what
41:11
Speaker 10: this is. But I didn't do it. A menacing judgement
41:16
Speaker 10: not not guilty, medicine, Thank you.
41:24
Speaker 17: What you did was frightening, horrible.
41:29
Speaker 6: Uh.
41:30
Speaker 17: And you can wag your head all you want. The
41:33
Speaker 17: jury found beyond a reasonable doubt that you did it.
41:38
Speaker 17: It is the sentence of the court that your custody,
41:40
Speaker 17: be committed to the Department of Corrections for confinement in
41:44
Speaker 17: the Wisconsin State Prisons for the remainder of your life.
41:49
Speaker 6: He's just an evil man. God only knows what he
41:54
Speaker 6: did with my son and where my son is right now.
41:57
Speaker 6: God and Zachariah Anderson.
42:02
Speaker 4: Celia is a hero to me in many ways. I
42:05
Speaker 4: live in hope and optimism that there's somebody out there
42:08
Speaker 4: who will watch this, who will understand that Celia will
42:13
Speaker 4: be haunted by the absence of her son and the
42:15
Speaker 4: ability to give him the burial she wishes.
42:18
Speaker 6: I go and park in front of his apartment and
42:20
Speaker 6: I sit there and I talk to him. I have
42:23
Speaker 6: my coffee and what have you? I cry, I laugh,
42:26
Speaker 6: or whatever it is that I'm going to do. To
42:29
Speaker 6: lose a child in such a manner and not to
42:34
Speaker 6: have his body is just the cruelest thing anyone can
42:40
Speaker 6: do as a mother.
42:43
Speaker 7: Hope a child that I love so dearly.
