  Speaker 1: All right, here's the deal.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: You're in charge the murder. A never belave.
• 0:08
  Speaker 3: This is thirty seven year old Nicole Woodard. Just forty
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: eight hours ago, police discovered her husband, Daniel Rayburn, brutally
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: beaten and deceased in the yard of his own home.
• 0:21
  Speaker 4: Neighbors said that, oh, they heard some subjects organ and
• 0:24
  Speaker 4: possibly one gunshot last night.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: At first, detectives believed this tragedy was the result of
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: a robbery, but they would be horribly wrong. As the
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: week's long investigation began, detectives would uncover a toxic relationship
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: and a twisted conspiracy, with Nicole at the very center
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: of it.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: All.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: Your DNA's gonna be on that gun. Now's the time
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: you need to tell me, because there's not going to
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: be another opportunity.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: On July fourth, officers in Dublin, Georgia, received a disc
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: sturbing call. A passing motorcyclist reported seeing a motionless body
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: on the front lawn of a nearby house and urgently
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: requested a welfare check. When first responders arrived at the scene,
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: it quickly became clear the man was already beyond saving.
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: Hi yaudor.
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: Come across his arm, not there.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: He's like somebody on through the tack or or something.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: As first responders took a closer look, the disturbing condition
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: of the man's body became clear. His skin was covered
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: and bruise's insects crawled across his face, and most troubling,
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: a gunshot wound was clearly visible at the back of
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: his head. Even more telling was the stiffness of his body,
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: clearly indicating he'd been dead for several hours. To the
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: officers on scene, one thing was immediately clear. This was
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: a homicide, and they needed to figure out who this
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: man was and why he was so brutally killed. Luckily,
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: it wouldn't take long before officers began uncovering crucial details.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Do we even know he don't know his name?
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: Dude?
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we ran.
• 2:11
  Speaker 7: That's as far as that.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, we're positively.
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: Twenty sixth radio off at twenty eight That was rain
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: at this location. We would come back to Daniel vern
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: Never and.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: Ark and the victim was quickly identified as Daniel Rayburn,
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: a forty year old father and the homeowner himself. With
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: this in mind, officers would approach Daniel's neighbors, who would
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: reveal information that would prove crucial to solving this case.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Later on, have y'all.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Been home a day, been to the grocery store?
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Have y'all heard anything over there?
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: No, like toy.
• 2:59
  Speaker 7: By so pretty?
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: You know, there's a man deceased in her yard.
• 3:05
  Speaker 7: What, Yeah, he's dead right there, Yeah, she said. Mommy
• 3:21
  Speaker 7: went five, she said, was the garman? H You see
• 3:26
  Speaker 7: his body right here near the h Lady lives there
• 3:33
  Speaker 7: with him.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Man, she can't.
• 3:35
  Speaker 7: That's the same leader that. Her name is Nicole Nicole?
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Is she younger or older?
• 3:41
  Speaker 7: Younger than so?
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: I'm forty three, so she might be early thirties, early
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: to mid thirties.
• 3:49
  Speaker 7: Some passersby just come back. He's been there for a while.
• 3:54
  Speaker 8: Later across the road seven here in about one am
• 3:58
  Speaker 8: for one shot, especially as email that results to by
• 4:01
  Speaker 8: the name of a TLL.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Why a female you know, see if she's insolved.
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: Yes, we're not gonna do. And if it's on Loine,
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: we can think and we do a welfare ship.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: Officers didn't know who Nicole was yet, but she would
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: become a very familiar figure over the coming days. Without
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: wasting any time, officers moved to search Daniel's home and
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: what they would find inside would soon blow the case
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: wide open. But before we continue, it's worth noting that
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: situations like these can be extremely distressing, not only for
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: those directly involved, but also for anyone following along at home.

• 5:32
  Speaker 3: that said, let's get back to the investigation officers. We're
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: about to search Daniel's home. Oh, where there could be
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: another victim or even someone dangerous hiding inside.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: There's a door lot.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Well, uh.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: Sorry, police, quartmit police, police varmit.
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: All right, So, females, gu you got a female name.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: All we know is it's a white female by the
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: name of Nicole right here, Nicole Water.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Fortunately for officers, the house turned out to be empty,
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: with no visible signs of violence or struggle inside. However,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: they did uncover one crucial clue, a letter revealing Nichole's
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: full identity, Branda Lee Nicole Waded, Daniel's wife. This discovery
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: immediately opened up new leads for investigators, but officers were
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: about to catch another clue. One of the paramedics on
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: the scene would recall encountering a woman with the exact
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: same name just hours earlier.
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: About it, I don't dan the neighbors saying that they
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: hears so just arguing last night and am possible one
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: gun shot? See yeah, they say it's supposed to be
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: a white female stand with them. First name by Nicole
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: who went in and cleared it. Nobody ain't in there,
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: but it's a letter in there with her name on it.
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: Quay with Nicole Wooden. That name we just picked up
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: afore some at Applebey's with the same name, thirty seven
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: years old.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: He stand up, According to the paramedic, thirty seven year
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: old Brandelein. Nicole Woodard had been working at a nearby
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: Applebe's when she suffered a seizure and was rushed to
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: the er earlier that day. Two detectives, this timing felt
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: a little too convenient. Nichole's medical emergency occurred just hours
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: after Daniel's brutal murder, potentially giving her an alibi to
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: distance herself from the crime. If this was in fact
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Nichole's plan, it wouldn't work out very well. Officers were
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: now able to easily locate her at the hospital and
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: question her regarding the actions leading up to Daniel's death.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: Since her injuries were minor, she was quickly transferred to
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: the station for questioning.
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: Did he have any friends that came over to visit.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Oh, once in a blue moon, we'd go over and
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: hang out with Tim and Sylvie, but we had seen
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: them in a couple of months than that.
• 8:05
  Speaker 6: You can't tell me anything else that you might know,
• 8:12
  Speaker 6: cause he was not in the yaw when he was
• 8:13
  Speaker 6: found in the US afternoon before they called about that.
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: After they called, you did get in contact with you.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: The officer showed up at the hospital.
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: We'll almost say you got in contact. I got in
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: contact with you, okay, so loving that you hadn't.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Seen him then before that I hadn't sent him at all.
• 8:34
  Speaker 7: Today.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: Even though Nicole insisted she had no idea what happened
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: to Daniel that night, her demeanor told the detective a
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: different story. Her shaky voice and uneven answers indicated extreme nervousness.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: She seemed on edge, uncomfortable, and far from natural. These
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: subtle cues could mean one of two things. Either Nicole
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: was genuinely shocked to learn that Daniel was killed, or
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: she was hiding something. This detective strongly suspected the latter
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: and intended to find out exactly what Nicole was holding back.
• 9:07
  Speaker 9: And you don't know anybody that might have been he'd
• 9:09
  Speaker 9: had a problem with, is all I was giving him problems?
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: Anything like that. How was he on the job and
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: he had problems on the job, anything like that that
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: you know?
• 9:21
  Speaker 9: I mean, we don't know if anybody's accident anything to him,
• 9:25
  Speaker 9: or whether he might have just felled and passed out
• 9:27
  Speaker 9: or whatever.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: If I asked you how much did he drink last night?
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: Well, you said you drunk a bottle I.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Was drinking last night. Drink he was drinking bigger, sir?
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: Has he able to drink alcohol to the phone where
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: he would fall out?
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, I told you, But he hadn't drunk like that stance.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: I mean he had drink to us right, Well, that's
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: all anything that you tell him.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: According to Nicole, she and Daniel had been drinking the
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: night before when a verbal argument escalated into a physical altercation. However,
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: she still insisted that he was alive and well when
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: she left. Ultimately, detectives weren't able to get any useful
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: information from Nicole and had no choice but to let
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: her go. However, unbeknownst to Nicole, this was only the
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: beginning of a very long week. Back at the crime scene,
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: officers continued collecting evidence to determine who had been at
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: the home. At around one am, Now with a search
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: warrant in hand, officers moved into Daniel's home, hoping it
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: would hold the evidence they desperately needed.
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: At the pastor, Danny.
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: He said, he got canceled the don.
• 10:49
  Speaker 7: Nous.
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: She clearly later stuff out yet about stuff.
• 10:54
  Speaker 8: In this They got a list of the leg here,
• 10:59
  Speaker 8: this got a listening short and careesper fits hants.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: Is it the place?
• 11:13
  Speaker 7: A tool?
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: Ain no blood nor wheel stip about.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: The Unfortunately for officers, no evidence was found inside the home.
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: With that in mind, officers expanded their search to the
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: property outside, and that's when they made a critical discovery.
• 11:38
  Speaker 8: He cool, I take the dread.
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: Yeahcurity models.
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: A severed dreadlock was found just feet away from where
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: Daniel was killed. The hair clearly didn't match Daniel or
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: Nichole's hair tie, confirming that someone else besides Nicole was
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: present that night. Detectives now needed to identify who this
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: unknown person was and figure out if Nicole might know
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: who he is. But while detectives were finishing up their
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: search at Daniel's home. His family arrived at the scene,
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: and officers had to break the tragic news.
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: How's go right now? Half the hours something, Yeah, this
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: is my son. I missed Dan, Let's go go.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: No, not yeah, I remember you.
• 12:30
  Speaker 8: But Matthew we had a past fire or see somebody
• 12:34
  Speaker 8: laying down and they called me out here and that's
• 12:37
  Speaker 8: when I.
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: Was seen him.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: Was he married or anything?
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: He was living with a woman.
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: What was that woman's name? Nicole Waters and.
• 12:45
  Speaker 7: Beach excuse me.
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: Although the family's comments about Nicole were somewhat vague, one
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: thing became clear. Daniel and Nicole likely had a deeply
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: troubled relationship. But suspicions alone weren't enough. Officers needed solid
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: evidence if they were going to identify Daniel's killer. Before
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: wrapping up for the day, investigators would review surveillance footage
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: from the neighbors across the street and spotted Nicole leaving
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: in her dad's car earlier that morning. Additionally, when police
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: analyzed Nicholl's phone records, they discovered that she had pleased
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: a call shortly before Daniel's murder. With suspicions now firmly
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: centered on Nicole, investigators began questioning her acquaintances to find
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: out what they knew about her troubled, deteriorating relationship with
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: Daniel and potential involvement in his death. That's when they
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: first heard the name Misty Edge, a friend of Nicholes, who,
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: as it turned out, had received a visit from her
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: just hours after the murder.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Oh my monster, she is so hully backed up, thang
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: a water.
• 13:58
  Speaker 7: No, they hadn't lie till John him. Hang on, Just.
• 14:03
  Speaker 10: How are you?
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: I'm good?
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: This is Missy Edge, Nichole's friend and coworker. She reached
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: out to police, claiming Nichole had shown up at her
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: house early the previous morning, acting strangely and carrying several bags.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: When detectives arrived at Misty's house, they never expected the
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: shocking details she was about to share.
• 14:24
  Speaker 11: Okay, well, she make with me the other night. It
• 14:27
  Speaker 11: was the range of when I see yet that he
• 14:29
  Speaker 11: had been beaten, arranged. She coming around five o'clock that morning.
• 14:32
  Speaker 11: She said she was very confused, that she didn't know
• 14:35
  Speaker 11: what was going on, that front door was open, that
• 14:37
  Speaker 11: his car was still drump everything. Yeah, we'd come back
• 14:43
  Speaker 11: and she felt she was still drunk. She fell asleep
• 14:46
  Speaker 11: on the cat and I feel like I really felt
• 14:47
  Speaker 11: like she.
• 14:48
  Speaker 7: Was coming off of something.
• 14:49
  Speaker 11: You just don't see her made yourself shake for no right.
• 14:53
  Speaker 7: I feel like I really thought she was trying to
• 14:54
  Speaker 7: hide something from me.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: This description of Nichole's demeanor sounded eerily familiar to how
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: she behaved in the interview room earlier. According to Misty,
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: Nicole was visibly shaking, nervous, and clearly on edge, as
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: if she was hiding something. Whatever Nicole had seen or
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: knew clearly made her unstable, possibly explaining her sudden seizure
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: and fainting earlier that day. But what detectives quickly realized
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: was that Misty herself knew far more than she initially
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: let on, and for reasons of her own, she decided
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: to drop the biggest bombshell.
• 15:29
  Speaker 12: Yet.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: Let me excuse, why did she tell you about Danny.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: She told me that she hadn't made a phone Crouse
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: and what get rid of it.
• 15:40
  Speaker 7: She also said she.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Wants and dev and then she don't want me.
• 15:43
  Speaker 7: Did she wants in.
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: My front door?
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: It was like she keep me my ass.
• 15:47
  Speaker 7: I said, keep me my eye. I said no that
• 15:50
  Speaker 7: I'm not doing that. That's not me. I don't have nothing.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: I have no record.
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: I've been good in my whole life, so none. That's
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: not me. She said, she needs an Aliba.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: Detectives now had a testimony supporting their suspicions that Nichole
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: was at the house around the time Daniel was killed.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: Even worse, Nichole supposedly made some phone calls to quote
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: take Daniel out. Not only had she likely witnessed the murder,
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: but she may have even coordinated it. It was time
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: to find Nichole. This time there would be no walking away.
• 16:26
  Speaker 11: How are you?
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: The next day, investigators set up a meeting with Nichole
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: at her sister's house, prepared to see just how much
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: her story would hold up under pressure. The goal was
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: to pressure her into revealing the names of the people
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: she called that night and what exactly she had told them.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: All Right, here's deal. You know, while we're here than unfor.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: What are we hear a girl Daniel and him not
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: being here anymore.
• 16:56
  Speaker 12: And because of the fact that may and him have
• 16:59
  Speaker 12: been posted in fighting and so so much slightly that
• 17:02
  Speaker 12: I may have had something to do with it, and
• 17:03
  Speaker 12: I swear I don't. I mean, I'm told him at times, Yeah,
• 17:09
  Speaker 12: you're gonna keep on on bitch ass or some shit
• 17:11
  Speaker 12: like that. But I swear I've never put my hands
• 17:13
  Speaker 12: on him. The first furthest I've done is I've pushed
• 17:15
  Speaker 12: him backwards. I've never put my hands on him, and
• 17:18
  Speaker 12: I never would.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: He used the one that made the craft out of me.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Back in November I was in.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Waynes Although detectives hadn't openly accused Nicole of anything, yet,
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: she immediately began defending herself, almost as if she knew
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: suspicion would inevitably fall on her. Her husband had just
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: been brutally murdered, Yet Nicole seemed less concerned with helping
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: the investigation and more focused on clearing her name.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: Anything been physical since then.
• 17:44
  Speaker 12: Nay and I wish screamed and hollered at each other
• 17:46
  Speaker 12: a little bit and sent some nasty messages back and forth.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: The thing with us, I mean, if we were not
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: girding at each other, there was something wrong.
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: As Nicole painted a harrowing picture of domestic abuse, her
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: explanation seemed carefully chosen to cast Daniel in a negative light,
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: almost as if she had hoped investigators would see her
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: as the victim, and while parts of her story may
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: indeed be true. Detective sense that she was subtly deflecting
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: blame and possibly laying the groundwork for a future legal defense.
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: But investigators would see right through this tactic, and it
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: only made them push harder to uncover what Nicole was
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: really hiding to be done.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: You just say it justst and fighting. I don't know,
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: but you just say it just a segment, you know,
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: while we're here. Look, I've been told three different things.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: I've been told he may have had a heart attack
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: in the yard. I've been told he was fatal, and
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: I've been told that they don't know what the hell happened,
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: just that he was found in the yard. No, I
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: don't listen to listen to me. It's always better. And
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: I know you talked to the tap the other day.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: It's the things of change, and we noticed himself that
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: you did.
• 19:02
  Speaker 7: We need you to come forward and tell the truth.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, I mean, I'm calling tell the people and stuff.
• 19:08
  Speaker 12: And I've told him at times I love him, I
• 19:11
  Speaker 12: hate and get me out of here, stuff like that.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: But I'm never already away.
• 19:16
  Speaker 10: I would never perman.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Tony, listen to me, Listen, look at me, Look at me.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: My sergeant just told you, we know more. We want
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: to hear yourself.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: I did not touch him.
• 19:33
  Speaker 10: I did not know Hell I do you know who did?
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: And it's time for you to tell us.
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: Who dear this to him.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: The stress was clearly getting to Nicole. Detectives made it
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: obvious they knew she wasn't telling them everything, and the
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: pressure was starting to show visibly nervous and beginning to break.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: Nicole was about to give detectives exactly what they came
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: here for.
• 19:59
  Speaker 9: This is bake.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: If my boss or brother may have had something, or
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: adopted brother may have had something to do with it,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: because I did call him and I did ask them
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: for help to get me out of there.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: Why do you suspect that he had something?
• 20:10
  Speaker 12: Because they've all said before if he kept on hurt me,
• 20:13
  Speaker 12: they were going to do something.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: And the last time that we had they come up,
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: he pitched.
• 20:19
  Speaker 7: Him out and that was it.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: Brandon, we know that you have made a phone call
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: to somebody. I called Pops, which is Hewlett.
• 20:28
  Speaker 12: Green, and I asked him if he would come over
• 20:29
  Speaker 12: and take and calm me down and stuff.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: And I called Andrew and Tom Tom and told them to.
• 20:35
  Speaker 10: Come over and find out what thought was going on,
• 20:37
  Speaker 10: and to Andrew and TomTom said they couldn't get there
• 20:39
  Speaker 10: anytime soon.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: Why were you wanting them to come over there? What
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: were you wanting them to take care of?
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: Not him?
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: Not like that?
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: I swear nothing like that.
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: That's what you just said.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: I wanted them to calm him down.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: I wondered, what is that?
• 20:54
  Speaker 11: Not like that?
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: We know you said I didn't want them to No,
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: I did not, all right, So.
• 21:00
  Speaker 10: Listen, there was camera fittes across the streets, So let's
• 21:04
  Speaker 10: talk about it.
• 21:04
  Speaker 11: Okay.
• 21:05
  Speaker 10: I never saw anything that have been I've heard him
• 21:08
  Speaker 10: out there, present and stuff, and.
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: Then they left.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Listen to me, you know more about what happened.
• 21:14
  Speaker 10: I have my suspicions, but I don't want to accuse
• 21:17
  Speaker 10: anybody of anything.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: You know more about what happens.
• 21:20
  Speaker 11: Now you give us the run around already, No, you have,
• 21:26
  Speaker 11: and that points fingers at you, that raises red flags
• 21:29
  Speaker 11: with you.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: Nicole would finally loosen up a bit, giving detectives a
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: couple of names, but that alone wasn't enough. Detectives still
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: needed to find out who actually pulled the trigger.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: What did you see and what did you hear I
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: heard shouting, and I've heard all the fireworks and all
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: that shit. That is all I've heard.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: What kind of shout?
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: You called something and ordered something on that phone? You
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: did not order because I haven't ordered anything.
• 21:57
  Speaker 7: You think the guys would have come over there.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: Go somewhere because he was being an ass holding me.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, I just told him, I said, y'all, just
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: get him to stop. No, I can't take it anymore.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: Y'all come get me. Y'll just get me out of
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: a here. Don't you want justice?
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: Far?
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: Is this what I'm telling He was left laying in
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: the yard. He's why I'm telling you. I'm giving you
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: the names that I have. Do I need a lawyer?
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: Despite Nicole bringing up her right to legal counsel, detectives
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: weren't ready to give up yet and moved in closer,
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: physically encircling her and increasing the pressure. And it's a
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: good thing they did, because Nicole was seconds away from
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: finally breaking down and confessing.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: I told him and told him to come fey his ass.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: I was fucking tired of the bullshit. But I didn't
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: think that they would do it.
• 22:48
  Speaker 7: They never done it before.
• 22:50
  Speaker 10: And then it was scared, and I didn't know that
• 22:53
  Speaker 10: he was doing it's for good.
• 22:55
  Speaker 12: I did not know that he was looking and did not.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: I thought maybe they're just rob the.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Ban friends.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: They just rolled them up.
• 23:11
  Speaker 10: A little bit and they committed a little one as
• 23:13
  Speaker 10: motherfucking just dating though.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: He would come in any Yeah, your brother be mad.
• 23:25
  Speaker 9: I was. I'm worried.
• 23:29
  Speaker 12: I didn't mean to.
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: I was a scaring.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: And they had already called me before that if they
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: beat him up. They got old on that I was
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: in trouble.
• 23:45
  Speaker 10: But I guess they never did it before. And I
• 23:48
  Speaker 10: told them multiple times I'll just compete. Has a fucking
• 23:51
  Speaker 10: tired of it, And nobody ever did the only thing
• 23:55
  Speaker 10: that ever happened, But I ended up calling up.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Did you go out him make sure he was a right?
• 24:02
  Speaker 6: No?
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: I did not say new or I did not. You're
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: almost there. You got about ten percent that you're not
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: telling us of what happened after the fact.
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: No, I don't.
• 24:16
  Speaker 7: Romas, I don't.
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: No, you don't know.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: Sit there and think about it.
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: Even if parts of Nichole's story were true, her overwhelming
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: emotional reaction seemed driven more by panic and fear than
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: genuine sorrow and By now, detectives had everything they needed
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: to move forward, and Nichole would be arrested and taken
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: to prison. Wile officers had enough evidence for an arrest
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: and were nearly certain of Brando Lee's involvement in the murder,
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: whether she had actually wanted Daniel dead remained unclear. To
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: solve this, detectives now turned their attention to Thomas Harper
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: and Andrew Huber, the two men Nicole claimed carried out
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: the attack. Fortunately, locating them didn't take long, and due
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: to their high likelihood of involvement, both men would be
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: arrested immediately and questioned the very next day. During their arrest,
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: police discovered a piece of clothing with bloodstains at Andrew
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: Huber's residence. After running a DNA test, this would prove
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: to be Daniel's blood, confirming that Andrew was present that night,
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: and he would be charged with murder. Still, there was
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: one person left and a final nail in the coffin
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: for Nicole, her adopted brother, Thomas Harper. During his arrest,
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: officers discovered a handgun along with four spent casings directly
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: matching the bullet fired into Daniel's head. On top of
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: that the dreadlock found at the crime scene would turn
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: out to be a direct match to Thomas himself. Neither
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: Andrew nor Thomas ever claimed Nichole was outside during the fight. However,
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: police could confirm that Nicole had seen Daniel leave and
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: heard gunshots, yet she never checked on him and never
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: called nine one one. Instead, she simply walked away, choosing
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: to protect Andrew and Thomas. This, paired with Misty's disturbing
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: witness statement and the phone logs confirming the timeline, was
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: more than enough evidence for police. Nichole may not have
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: pulled the trigger herself, but she set it all into motion,
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: and because of her actions, Daniel was killed. In the end,
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: justice caught up with all three. Andrew Huber was convicted
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: of felony murder and sentenced to life in prison without
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: the possibility of parole. Nicole and Thomas Harper both pleaded
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: guilty to voluntary manslaughter, likely receiving sentences ranging anywhere from
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: ten to twenty years in prison for their roles in
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: Daniel's brutal death.
