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