- 0:26Speaker 1: how different things are. And I've always known her to
- 0:29Speaker 1: be a real, bubbly, spontaneous girl. I knew she was
- 0:32Speaker 1: very smart, and she made straight a's in school, and
- 0:35Speaker 1: she's real determined to get what she wanted. I know
- 0:38Speaker 1: I made bad decisions, a lot of bad decisions, and
- 0:41Speaker 1: a lot of bad judgments. I had no physical partners.
- 0:47Speaker 1: They had it all. One at a military academy, one
- 0:53Speaker 1: at the Naval Academy, the top schools in the country,
- 0:57Speaker 1: the top military schools, young, beautiful, handsome, great grades, honor students.
- 1:06Speaker 1: How in the world these two sweethearts end up charged
- 1:12Speaker 1: with murder? Joining me right now, Crime Stories investigative reporter
- 1:16Speaker 1: John Limley, forensic expert, DestinE investigator Joseph Scott Morgan and
- 1:22Speaker 1: lawyer psychologist Dr Brian Russell, host of Investigation Discoveries, hit
- 1:27Speaker 1: show Fatal Vows and author of a new book stop
- 1:32Speaker 1: moaning and start owning. Okay, I gotta figure that one out.
- 1:36Speaker 1: But first, to John Limley, Crime Stories, investigative reporter, how
- 1:40Speaker 1: did these two, they're both beautiful, the guy and the girl,
- 1:45Speaker 1: Diane Zamora end up charged with murder. Le Let's just
- 1:50Speaker 1: start at the beginning. What happened? We go back first
- 1:53Speaker 1: to the early morning morning hours of December four of
- 1:58Speaker 1: farmer is drive along as sleepy desolate country road near Mansfield, Texas,
- 2:05Speaker 1: and he sees something behind a barbed wire fence and
- 2:11Speaker 1: pulls over and discovers it's the body of a teenage girl.
- 2:16Speaker 1: At first, he actually thought he was looking at roadkill.
- 2:20Speaker 1: She was unrecognizable. The girl's face was completely obliterated. One
- 2:26Speaker 1: bullet hole was in her left cheek, another in her forehead.
- 2:31Speaker 1: She had also been hit so many times and so
- 2:34Speaker 1: hard on the left side of her head that part
- 2:37Speaker 1: of the skull above her ear, and this is a
- 2:40Speaker 1: pretty tough part of the skull was completely caved in.
- 2:44Speaker 1: She was wearing flannel shorts a gray T shirt that
- 2:47Speaker 1: read U I L Region one cross Country Regionals. Within hours,
- 2:53Speaker 1: police officers identified her as Adrian Jones, sixteen year old
- 2:59Speaker 1: high school sophomore from the town of Mansfield that's just
- 3:03Speaker 1: southeast of Fort Worth. Let me go to Joe Scott Morgan,
- 3:07Speaker 1: forensic expert Joseph Scott Morgan, professor at Jacksonville State University.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Joe Scott he thinks that actually it may have been
- 3:19Speaker 1: an animal on the side of the road when he
- 3:22Speaker 1: finds his beautiful, young blonde girl, just sixteen years old,
- 3:26Speaker 1: athletic honor student, the works and she's been bludgeoned and shot.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Now for him to not even be able to tell
- 3:37Speaker 1: if it's a human or not until he sees that
- 3:41Speaker 1: the body is wearing a T shirt. That's bad. Joseph
- 3:44Speaker 1: Scott Morgan, Yeah, it is, and it really speaks to
- 3:48Speaker 1: our human nature as well. I can't tell you over
- 3:50Speaker 1: the years as a death investigator in New Orleans and Atlanta,
- 3:53Speaker 1: how many times I had people that found bodies and
- 3:57Speaker 1: their first statement and it this is interesting there her
- 4:00Speaker 1: statement as always, I thought it was a dead animal
- 4:03Speaker 1: because our mind doesn't allow us to think this. And
- 4:05Speaker 1: then you come across this is ghastly seen where this
- 4:09Speaker 1: girl is just literally her body is just ripped to
- 4:11Speaker 1: shreds uh. And it's the only way you can kind
- 4:14Speaker 1: of rationalize it, and I find that among the general
- 4:17Speaker 1: public that just find bodies. This is very, very consistent
- 4:21Speaker 1: with what I've heard over the years, and what a
- 4:23Speaker 1: nightmare to be driving along and find a dead body.
- 4:28Speaker 1: But that's exactly what happened to psychologist Dr Brian Russell.
- 4:33Speaker 1: You know, I've prosecuted so many homicides that I've actually
- 4:40Speaker 1: had nightmares of finding a dead body, of just finding one,
- 4:46Speaker 1: and it when you're exposed to that, it haunts you
- 4:50Speaker 1: the rest of your life. I mean, you think of
- 4:54Speaker 1: it at the very oddest times, when you're walking down
- 4:57Speaker 1: the hallway or going into a public bathroom, you think
- 5:00Speaker 1: of a case where do you find a dead body?
- 5:03Speaker 1: I mean, this is how Adrian Jones was discovered. Someone
- 5:07Speaker 1: just drives by and Caesar, they're dead at a barbed
- 5:12Speaker 1: wire fence on the side of the road, and Nancy.
- 5:15Speaker 1: This is just one more reason that the public should
- 5:17Speaker 1: be grateful for the first responders and public servants who
- 5:21Speaker 1: respond to these things and whose response we sort of
- 5:23Speaker 1: take for granted because they are haunted by the memories
- 5:27Speaker 1: of the things that they see. My dad was a
- 5:29Speaker 1: career law enforcement officer, and my brother is a firefighter
- 5:32Speaker 1: e MT And most of the time, even within their families,
- 5:36Speaker 1: they don't do a lot of talking about it, but
- 5:39Speaker 1: they do live with those memories as you do inside themselves,
- 5:43Speaker 1: and it's just an additional burden that they bear. We
- 5:46Speaker 1: don't pay them nearly enough, and just another reason to
- 5:49Speaker 1: be thankful and grateful next time you see one of them,
- 5:51Speaker 1: you know, back to John Linly Crime Stories, investigative reporter
- 5:56Speaker 1: John Linley. So the guys driving along and find Adrian's body.
- 6:01Speaker 1: At that point, nobody has any idea what happened. Now,
- 6:07Speaker 1: this is a farming community, right and it's all built
- 6:09Speaker 1: around a grain elevator and a rodeo arena. Um, it's out.
- 6:15Speaker 1: I wouldn't say the mill of Nowhere because it's kind
- 6:18Speaker 1: of this scenario how I grew up. But it's a
- 6:22Speaker 1: rural area where you don't expect to find a dead body,
- 6:25Speaker 1: so it's very uncharacteristic. The night before Adrian's body was
- 6:30Speaker 1: found along that rural road near Mansfield, the high school
- 6:35Speaker 1: sophomore had received a phone call around Her mom very
- 6:41Speaker 1: quickly told her to get off the phone, that it
- 6:44Speaker 1: was too late for a young lady to be talking
- 6:47Speaker 1: on a school night. So they go to bed the
- 6:50Speaker 1: next morning around seven o'clock. Now, wait a minute, hold on,
- 6:53Speaker 1: I want to follow up on that. That's not entirely
- 6:56Speaker 1: unusual because I remember we couldn't talk. It never really
- 7:02Speaker 1: even happened. We just knew we weren't supposed to talk
- 7:04Speaker 1: on the phone late at night. And and here is
- 7:07Speaker 1: so funny, John. The other day the phone, the landline rang,
- 7:12Speaker 1: and the twins Loo tupe went, what was that? They
- 7:15Speaker 1: did not even know what a land like? Said, They said, Mom,
- 7:18Speaker 1: what's that written? That bell? What's that bell? I said,
- 7:22Speaker 1: it's called a landline. So needless to say, they're not
- 7:26Speaker 1: talking on the phone late at night. We don't even
- 7:28Speaker 1: have the phone ring. Um for for a reason, I
- 7:32Speaker 1: don't want it to ring. But here's the thing with
- 7:35Speaker 1: Adrian jones A. She was an honor student, and it
- 7:38Speaker 1: was very rare that she was allowed to stay out
- 7:41Speaker 1: after nine o'clock on weekends, even and she's sixteen years old.
- 7:46Speaker 1: In fact, if she would tell her dad she was
- 7:48Speaker 1: going to a movie or she loved to go to
- 7:50Speaker 1: six Flags over Texas, she'd have to show him the tickets.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Stub Okay, now, I think so it could hardly be
- 8:00Speaker 1: said that Adrian Jones was out sneaking around the neighborhood
- 8:06Speaker 1: at night. Okay, that did not happen. Okay, back to
- 8:10Speaker 1: what you were saying. I just want to set the
- 8:11Speaker 1: scene of how this girl was not a run around.
- 8:15Speaker 1: She didn't sneak out of the house, she didn't even
- 8:17Speaker 1: go wasn't out past nine o'clock, she didn't even get
- 8:19Speaker 1: on the phone that light. Okay, back to you, John,
- 8:22Speaker 1: because she was anything but a rebel. In fact, she
- 8:25Speaker 1: spent at least two hours every night doing her homework.
- 8:29Speaker 1: Uh so they go after this phone. Also had a job.
- 8:33Speaker 1: Not only did she was she an Honors to unit,
- 8:36Speaker 1: she had a job at the Golden Fried Chicken Write,
- 8:38Speaker 1: a fast food restaurant, and she was a valued, trusted
- 8:42Speaker 1: employee who had a really great sense of humor, her
- 8:46Speaker 1: co workers have said. Incidentally, um Adrian that night tells
- 8:52Speaker 1: her mom that it was her friend David that that
- 8:57Speaker 1: had called and and her mom, Linda didn't recall hearing
- 9:02Speaker 1: about David before, didn't think anything about it after the
- 9:07Speaker 1: phone call. After after they talked, they went to bed
- 9:12Speaker 1: the next morning around seven o'clock. Adrian's brother, Justin Knox
- 9:17Speaker 1: on Linda Adrian's mom's door and asked, where's Adrian. All
- 9:23Speaker 1: of the girls books her book bag were still in
- 9:26Speaker 1: her bedroom and it was long past time for classes
- 9:30Speaker 1: for school to have started, so Linda calls the school
- 9:34Speaker 1: and was told that Adrian didn't show up that day.
- 9:37Speaker 1: After calling Adrian's friends and their parents, Linda finally reports
- 9:43Speaker 1: her daughter missing to police. She has no other choice
- 9:47Speaker 1: at that point, and it's not long before investigators are
- 9:50Speaker 1: able to match what they have at the moment as
- 9:54Speaker 1: a Jane Doe found in the field with this missing girl. Okay,
- 10:00Speaker 1: I just had to pause right there, Joseph Scott Morgan,
- 10:04Speaker 1: because I mean, to find out your child didn't show
- 10:10Speaker 1: up at school, and then find out there on the
- 10:14Speaker 1: side of the road, on the other side of a
- 10:16Speaker 1: barber fence so destroyed a passer by thought your child
- 10:24Speaker 1: was road kill. It's almost too much to take in.
- 10:30Speaker 1: I mean, Joseph Scott Morgan, you have children, Yeah, and uh,
- 10:34Speaker 1: it's uh. I've had to make just under two thousand
- 10:41Speaker 1: uh notifications in person in my career, Nancy, and it's uh.
- 10:48Speaker 1: It's one of the single most impactful things that you
- 10:53Speaker 1: have to do. No matter how much you witness it,
- 10:56Speaker 1: and no matter how much you you convey this information
- 10:59Speaker 1: to a family, you cannot even begin to feel the
- 11:04Speaker 1: depths of just despair and the haunting nature of this
- 11:08Speaker 1: thing where it just rips your guts to pieces. And
- 11:11Speaker 1: that's that's what's happened. Uh, in this particular case. You
- 11:15Speaker 1: you have this idea that your child is is up
- 11:18Speaker 1: on their own legs and you know, kind of moving
- 11:20Speaker 1: forward their future and everything. You have an expectation that
- 11:23Speaker 1: there will be this normalcy, they'll be able to go
- 11:25Speaker 1: in and go to school, and you know your your
- 11:28Speaker 1: life is moving along like clockwork. And then all of
- 11:31Speaker 1: a sudden, it's like somebody pulls a pen on the
- 11:32Speaker 1: grenade and throws it into the room of your life
- 11:35Speaker 1: and just destroys it in that one instance. And and
- 11:39Speaker 1: that's what this mother had to endure. It's it's a horrible,
- 11:42Speaker 1: horrible set of circumstances. Yeah, you know, to lawyer and
- 11:46Speaker 1: psychologist Dr Brian Russell, who is a host of investigation
- 11:51Speaker 1: Discoveries Fatal Vows, I remember waking up day after day
- 11:56Speaker 1: after day after my fiancee was murdered, and I would
- 12:00Speaker 1: wake up and just think I want to go back.
- 12:03Speaker 1: I want to go back to two days ago, to
- 12:08Speaker 1: four days ago, as time passed, I want to go
- 12:10Speaker 1: back to a year ago. You just it's you can't
- 12:13Speaker 1: take it in and I cannot even imagine. What do
- 12:16Speaker 1: it be like to lose your child like this? Yeah,
- 12:19Speaker 1: I think it's it's such a it's such a flood
- 12:25Speaker 1: of emotion, uh that you know, you know, encompasses uh,
- 12:31Speaker 1: disbelief and denial and anger and sadness and and everything
- 12:36Speaker 1: and and people I think until they experience a death,
- 12:41Speaker 1: at least even if it's not a you know, a tragic,
- 12:44Speaker 1: untimely death, don't really realize how struck they're going to be.
- 12:49Speaker 1: But by the finality of that realization, like you just said,
- 12:53Speaker 1: where you realize, oh my god, just just a day ago,
- 12:56Speaker 1: two days ago, two weeks ago, three months ago, they
- 12:58Speaker 1: were here and they're not and they're never coming back.
- 13:01Speaker 1: You never get over it. You just learned to just
- 13:04Speaker 1: live to live on with that being the reality. And
- 13:09Speaker 1: what was so complex, so um confusing, is that this
- 13:14Speaker 1: isn't an adult that has you know, a family and
- 13:18Speaker 1: a defined workplace. This is a young girl who was
- 13:22Speaker 1: popular at school. I think she was a cheerleader and
- 13:26Speaker 1: she worked in a fast food place. She would see
- 13:29Speaker 1: different students from all sorts of schools all the time,
- 13:33Speaker 1: including her own high school. She would see strangers coming
- 13:38Speaker 1: through the fast food where she worked. Anybody could have
- 13:43Speaker 1: done it, and there was no sign of a struggle.
- 13:47Speaker 1: There were no marks on her hands or legs, there
- 13:51Speaker 1: were no defensive bruises or cuts. There was no sex attacks.
- 13:55Speaker 1: So what's the motive? This is what else we learned
- 13:59Speaker 1: that not when Adrian disappeared. Sometimes after midnight, one of
- 14:03Speaker 1: Adrian's little brothers heard uh an engine outside the house
- 14:07Speaker 1: and when he looked up, he thought what he saw
- 14:10Speaker 1: was a pickup truck driving away. And it was the
- 14:13Speaker 1: next morning Adrian was nowhere to be found. Um, the
- 14:18Speaker 1: cross country coach at her high school, asked, who is
- 14:23Speaker 1: somebody named David on the cross country team? Who is
- 14:29Speaker 1: David John Limley? David is David Graham? Uh, Diane Samora's
- 14:36Speaker 1: uh not only boyfriend but now fiancee and he and
- 14:43Speaker 1: as far as we know, Um, Adrian had sort of
- 14:50Speaker 1: a pretty close friendship. Most people assumed it was nothing
- 14:55Speaker 1: more than just friendship. I mean, this guy is a
- 15:00Speaker 1: national merit semifinalists. He is um got into the US
- 15:05Speaker 1: Air Force Academy through the help of Congressman Martin Frost.
- 15:11Speaker 1: I mean, you have to have recommendations from your congress
- 15:15Speaker 1: people to get into these military schools when you get
- 15:17Speaker 1: to that level. And he was in the r OTC squadron.
- 15:23Speaker 1: He presented colors before football games. He was an honor student.
- 15:29Speaker 1: He played high school football, cross country, the works. This
- 15:34Speaker 1: guy was every mom's dream son, right, And that's the
- 15:39Speaker 1: David that comes into the mixture, and he happens to
- 15:45Speaker 1: be engaged to Diane Zamora. I knew that the relationship
- 15:52Speaker 1: we had was too serious for that time in our life,
- 15:56Speaker 1: and I tried to slow it down, but there was
- 15:59Speaker 1: nothing I could do. I was infatuated with her and
- 16:02Speaker 1: she was obsessed with me. Now, at the beginning, Adrian
- 16:05Speaker 1: Jones's murder just seemed like another killing in a small town.
- 16:10Speaker 1: Nobody seemed to be able to figure out what happened.
- 16:15Speaker 1: Within the little town itself. Everyone was in shock. Um
- 16:22Speaker 1: Adrian Jones was found murdered. There was no doubt about
- 16:25Speaker 1: it that she was murdered. There was no suggestion of
- 16:29Speaker 1: a suicide or an accident, and then the hunt was on.
- 16:35Speaker 1: Uh what happened to her? But then there was a
- 16:39Speaker 1: crack in the case. Back to you John. The year
- 16:42Speaker 1: after Adrian's murder, a young female midshipman, Diane Zamora is
- 16:50Speaker 1: at the U. S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, and
- 16:54Speaker 1: one night she is doing something quite normal. She's chatting
- 16:58Speaker 1: with her roommates about their love lives past and present.
- 17:04Speaker 1: The young women are talking about guys and relationships. Diane
- 17:09Speaker 1: starts talking about her longtime love at this point. They
- 17:14Speaker 1: went to two separate schools near Mansfield, Texas, but they
- 17:18Speaker 1: had a fast and furious uh love and they became
- 17:24Speaker 1: uh engaged. Uh. Diane bose that she and her fiance,
- 17:30Speaker 1: David Graham, have proven their love and devotion to one
- 17:34Speaker 1: another in a most unusual way. It seems that when
- 17:39Speaker 1: they were both in high school, David, during their relationship,
- 17:44Speaker 1: confessed to Diane that he had cheated on her and
- 17:48Speaker 1: had sex with a girl at his school in their
- 17:52Speaker 1: dorm room. That night on the academy campus, Diane tells
- 17:56Speaker 1: her roommates that she and David killed that girl as
- 18:01Speaker 1: retribution for David's having had sex with her. The next day,
- 18:05Speaker 1: Diane's roommates waste no time contacting authorities on the academy campus.
- 18:12Speaker 1: To Dr Brian Russell, host of investigation Discoveries, Fatal Vows,
- 18:16Speaker 1: a gorgeous young brunette student at the elite Naval Academy
- 18:24Speaker 1: here in the US suddenly confides to a roommate she
- 18:31Speaker 1: was deeply in love, but that her sweetheart had stated
- 18:37Speaker 1: that he once cheated, once once cheated. Dr Brian Russell,
- 18:48Speaker 1: how often. I mean, I can't imagine that one episode
- 18:52Speaker 1: of infidelity when you're not even married and these are
- 18:56Speaker 1: are teens, for Pete say, there is just barely in college.
- 19:02Speaker 1: I mean, they're the best of the best in the
- 19:04Speaker 1: Naval Academy and the top military school in the country.
- 19:10Speaker 1: I just can't imagine that that is a motive for murder. Brian. Well,
- 19:14Speaker 1: and it's fascinating to think about. Uh, sadly fascinating to
- 19:18Speaker 1: think about. Okay, So if that happened between the boyfriend
- 19:25Speaker 1: and and the murder victim, you know, why in the
- 19:29Speaker 1: world would that uh you know, why would the murder
- 19:33Speaker 1: victim have been perceived to have wronged Diane? You know,
- 19:40Speaker 1: what have the murder victim do that the murder victim
- 19:43Speaker 1: didn't have any uh, val I mean they weren't married,
- 19:47Speaker 1: but didn't have any relationship to Diane, didn't oh Diane anything.
- 19:52Speaker 1: It was the boyfriend that had betrayed Diane. So we're
- 19:55Speaker 1: circling back. Dr Brian Russell. Yes, and it's it's again.
- 19:59Speaker 1: It's this, Um, it's more than that. It's this very
- 20:04Speaker 1: deeply narcissistically possessive, just really twisted idea that Okay, because
- 20:15Speaker 1: you did this to me, I'm not really that mad
- 20:19Speaker 1: at you, but I want you to I'm gonna stay
- 20:23Speaker 1: with you, but I want you to show your love
- 20:26Speaker 1: and loyalty to me by going and and taking my
- 20:31Speaker 1: anger at you out upon upon this girl, this this
- 20:35Speaker 1: that had nothing, no relationship to me ever. Uh, it's
- 20:39Speaker 1: it's just, uh, it's it's amazing that she's not she's
- 20:42Speaker 1: gonna stay with him, but she apparently wants him to
- 20:47Speaker 1: go out and show this this act of love for
- 20:49Speaker 1: her by committing a murder. Wants the girl dead. Listen
- 20:55Speaker 1: to this. She said that the girl, everyone knew that
- 20:58Speaker 1: the girl was a tramp and a slept and that
- 21:00Speaker 1: she deserved to die. Now. Diane Zamora is who we're
- 21:03Speaker 1: talking about, and take a listen to her resume. She's
- 21:08Speaker 1: a high school senior at a nearby town of Crowley.
- 21:10Speaker 1: She's super smart and equally as determined as her boyfriend
- 21:15Speaker 1: David to get in one of the top military academies,
- 21:19Speaker 1: member of the student Council, member of the Key Club,
- 21:23Speaker 1: um in the National Honor Society, in a science organization
- 21:28Speaker 1: called Masters of the Universe. She played the flute in
- 21:31Speaker 1: the marching band. She also ran on the high school
- 21:35Speaker 1: cross country team. I mean, when you look at them,
- 21:39Speaker 1: they seem like this couple destined for great greatness, maybe
- 21:44Speaker 1: even the White House someday. It's like your I is
- 21:49Speaker 1: playing a trick on the mind. Dr Brian Russell. Yeah,
- 21:53Speaker 1: it's uh, it's an actually an interesting lesson for people
- 21:59Speaker 1: that you cannot uh, you cannot expect that just because
- 22:04Speaker 1: somebody outwardly uh, there there are million things that they
- 22:10Speaker 1: could be doing. They could be doing uh you know,
- 22:12Speaker 1: military service, they could be um involved in their church
- 22:16Speaker 1: and talking about it all the time. You can't look
- 22:20Speaker 1: at any one aspect or even a number of aspects
- 22:24Speaker 1: of somebody and conclude that they're not capable of profoundly
- 22:30Speaker 1: evil behavior and you know what really correct did just
- 22:33Speaker 1: got Morgan was not forensics, your forte, but the fact
- 22:37Speaker 1: that months later, after her body's found, a friend, Tina Dollar,
- 22:44Speaker 1: and that was the manager at the fast food restaurant,
- 22:47Speaker 1: recalled and told police that one day, one day, the
- 22:51Speaker 1: teen girl, Adrian, had pulled out a photo of a
- 22:54Speaker 1: boy from her wallet and showed it and she said
- 22:59Speaker 1: his name is David Well. David, of course, turns out
- 23:02Speaker 1: to be David Graham, whose fiancee is Diane Zamora. They
- 23:08Speaker 1: had met before Adrian's murder, and he had had a
- 23:13Speaker 1: relationship with Adrian, and that is what blew it all
- 23:19Speaker 1: wide open. Go ahead, John Lenny, exactly, Nancy. The Grand
- 23:25Speaker 1: Prairie police were then contacted because Grand Prairie was the
- 23:29Speaker 1: actual jurisdiction where Adrian's body was found, and Zamora and
- 23:34Speaker 1: Graham were arrested for capital murder um. And once the
- 23:40Speaker 1: two are arrested, uh Graham interrogated for thirty hours, during
- 23:46Speaker 1: which he confesses to killing Jones. Zamora also confesses to
- 23:52Speaker 1: the murder. And this is where we begin to see
- 23:56Speaker 1: key details of the event, because there there's aries at
- 24:00Speaker 1: the time were very similar. According to Graham. He and
- 24:04Speaker 1: Zamora planned to kill Jones and put her in the
- 24:08Speaker 1: lake nearby with waits tied to her body. He called
- 24:13Speaker 1: Adrian on the night of December three and arranged to
- 24:17Speaker 1: drive her to Joe Pool Lake. It seemed innocent enough
- 24:21Speaker 1: to Adrian Well. The plan was for Zamora to hide
- 24:25Speaker 1: in the hatchback of that car. Zamora said in her
- 24:29Speaker 1: confession that they arrived at a spot by the lake
- 24:33Speaker 1: a little after midnight on December four. She said that
- 24:37Speaker 1: when Graham stopped the car, she came out from the hatchback,
- 24:42Speaker 1: actually through the back seat, and asks Adrian point blank.
- 24:48Speaker 1: Surprises her and asks her if she had sex with Graham.
- 24:53Speaker 1: She claims Adrian said that she had, but that she
- 24:57Speaker 1: didn't enjoy it because she felt guilty. Za Laura becomes
- 25:01Speaker 1: even more enraged. Zamora and Graham both said in their
- 25:05Speaker 1: confessions that they got into a struggle. Zamora hits Adrian
- 25:11Speaker 1: on the head with waits and that Jones fought back.
- 25:16Speaker 1: Uh Adrian gets out of the card takes off across
- 25:21Speaker 1: the field. Graham comes up behind her shoots her twice
- 25:26Speaker 1: with a nine millimeter handgun. After she fell, According to
- 25:30Speaker 1: Zamora's confession. When he returned to the car, Graham said,
- 25:35Speaker 1: I love you baby. Do you believe me now? And
- 25:38Speaker 1: this is what Zamora says. Zamora insists she had nothing
- 25:43Speaker 1: to do with Adrian's death. Listen, we the jury find
- 25:47Speaker 1: the defendant, Diane Michelle Zamora, guilty of the offensive capital
- 25:51Speaker 1: murder as your punishment us hear about said in Life
- 25:53Speaker 1: in prison. Convicted killer Diane Zamora, who has spent the
- 25:57Speaker 1: majority of her life behind bars, is speaking now when
- 26:01Speaker 1: the jury or the judge came back and said your
- 26:03Speaker 1: sentenced to life in prison? What was that moment like
- 26:06Speaker 1: for you? I don't even really remember it. Um blur
- 26:11Speaker 1: it really is um. I think after they said guilty,
- 26:14Speaker 1: that was probably the last thing I heard Diane clean.
- 26:17Speaker 1: She's not a cold blooded killer. In fact, she now
- 26:21Speaker 1: says she played no real physical role in Adrian's death.
- 26:26Speaker 1: Did you pull the trigger? Did you harm Adrian in
- 26:30Speaker 1: any way? The only thing I did was poor hair.
- 26:33Speaker 1: I remember one time they were they were fighting. But
- 26:36Speaker 1: while prosecutors couldn't prove she played a physical role in
- 26:39Speaker 1: the murder, they did prove Diane was the mastermind behind
- 26:42Speaker 1: the killing when she allegedly told David to kill Adrian. True,
- 26:47Speaker 1: did you ever ask David to kill her? No? But
- 26:50Speaker 1: I did wish her did at one point, and I
- 26:52Speaker 1: think that it went from there. Um. But of course
- 26:56Speaker 1: I wished him. Did I wished myself dade Um? But
- 27:02Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't believe anything like that would or
- 27:06Speaker 1: could happen. And then when it did, um, I was
- 27:10Speaker 1: in denial. I think he did this because he was
- 27:15Speaker 1: obsessed with guns. Um. I think he wanted to know
- 27:19Speaker 1: what it was like to use them on someone. So
- 27:23Speaker 1: someone were to say you were the foundation behind this,
- 27:28Speaker 1: I think I was a good excuse. I really think
- 27:32Speaker 1: now that's what I was. I was a good excuse
- 27:35Speaker 1: to do something he already wanted to do. What was
- 27:37Speaker 1: your role in all of this? Were you there? Did
- 27:40Speaker 1: you participate? You were there. I didn't hit her in
- 27:43Speaker 1: the head with a way Did you see that happen?
- 27:46Speaker 1: She didn't get hit in the head with a waight? Um,
- 27:49Speaker 1: she got hit in the head with the butt of
- 27:51Speaker 1: David's gun. Did you see that happen? No? But I
- 27:54Speaker 1: saw his elbow come down. I didn't have my contacts,
- 27:56Speaker 1: and I didn't have contacts or glasses at all. But
- 27:59Speaker 1: you were hiding in the back of a car that
- 28:01Speaker 1: night your parents Mazda correct. True, does she cry for help?
- 28:06Speaker 1: I didn't hear her. Um, I'm sure she did, but
- 28:10Speaker 1: I didn't hear her. At this point, you spent more
- 28:12Speaker 1: time behind bars and you have in the outside world.
- 28:15Speaker 1: What is that like for you? It's strange, Um, it's
- 28:21Speaker 1: something you know. UM. I talked about a lot with
- 28:24Speaker 1: a lot of people because I was I was so young.
- 28:28Speaker 1: I had no experiences out there. I can't even tell
- 28:32Speaker 1: you what was going through my mind except that I
- 28:37Speaker 1: was just so young and stupid. I was like, Yeah,
- 28:40Speaker 1: I want to meet the squirrel. And you don't. You
- 28:43Speaker 1: don't think things through. You don't think, oh, it's really
- 28:45Speaker 1: late at night, that's when bad things happen. That's from
- 28:48Speaker 1: Crime Watch Daily, And in keeping with that first to
- 28:53Speaker 1: you just got Morgan. They're going to have to have
- 28:55Speaker 1: some serious forensic evidence to pin it on Zamora. I mean,
- 28:59Speaker 1: this is a girl who, when she was nine years old,
- 29:02Speaker 1: told her family tells her family she wants to be
- 29:05Speaker 1: an astronaut, and sent to NASA for brochures. She immediately
- 29:09Speaker 1: starts keeping a spiral notebook of all the achievements she
- 29:12Speaker 1: has to accomplish to get a college scholarship. Her family
- 29:17Speaker 1: cannot afford it. Her dad is an electrician, her mom
- 29:21Speaker 1: a registered nurse. She knew what her gray point average
- 29:24Speaker 1: had to be and when her s A T scores
- 29:26Speaker 1: had to be. She even carried a knapsack full of
- 29:29Speaker 1: school books everywhere she went in case she had an
- 29:32Speaker 1: extra ten minutes that she could used to study. She
- 29:36Speaker 1: hung out with the smart kids at school and would
- 29:38Speaker 1: call them her homework buddies, and she was dead set
- 29:42Speaker 1: on being an academic star. In her junior year, when
- 29:47Speaker 1: she posed for her graduation photo, she asked to be
- 29:51Speaker 1: allowed to wear the special taskle for being the top
- 29:54Speaker 1: ten per cent of the senior class, even though at
- 29:57Speaker 1: that time she didn't know whether she would make it
- 29:59Speaker 1: or not. She just wanted to have the photo to
- 30:02Speaker 1: keep her going so she could wear that tassel her
- 30:05Speaker 1: senior year. This is a year ahead of time, just
- 30:09Speaker 1: got mortgage. She was convinced she would make it and
- 30:11Speaker 1: wanted to wear that tassel. So you know you've got
- 30:14Speaker 1: that dichotomy juxtaposed against a cold blooded killer. Yeah you do.
- 30:21Speaker 1: Um almost reptilian, isn't it. Uh, this idea that she
- 30:27Speaker 1: can plan her life out like that. But another thing
- 30:30Speaker 1: that she planned out was, uh, let's call it for
- 30:33Speaker 1: what it is. It was an ambush and a slaughter
- 30:36Speaker 1: of of this young girl planned it out just like
- 30:39Speaker 1: she thought that she had planned out her academic future.
- 30:43Speaker 1: And Uh, the wheels came off of this. The wheels
- 30:46Speaker 1: came off of it because, uh, you know, as you
- 30:49Speaker 1: had talked about earlier, Uh, there were these little clues
- 30:52Speaker 1: long way. It's not yeah, I am a forensic guy,
- 30:54Speaker 1: but it's forensics is just a tool, Nancy. What really
- 30:58Speaker 1: sawce cases like this is old fashioned shoe leather, the
- 31:01Speaker 1: police going out and asking questions, following leads, and that's
- 31:05Speaker 1: what they did in this particular case, tying everything back together.
- 31:10Speaker 1: Uh you know, and the story that the two of
- 31:13Speaker 1: these people are telling didn't necessarily always match up and
- 31:17Speaker 1: marry up. And it would seem as though that this
- 31:20Speaker 1: uh Zamora tried to pin everything back on this young man,
- 31:26Speaker 1: and granted he did have his hand in it, but
- 31:29Speaker 1: there was a lot of planning that went along with this,
- 31:31Speaker 1: this idea that she was hiding in the back of
- 31:33Speaker 1: this hatchback. He imagined, how horrible this is. A young
- 31:36Speaker 1: girls riding down the road with this guy that she's
- 31:38Speaker 1: been intimate with. She's only sixteen years old, and all
- 31:41Speaker 1: of a sudden he stops on the side of the road.
- 31:43Speaker 1: She probably thinks they're gonna have an intimate moment together again,
- 31:47Speaker 1: and suddenly this person springs out of the back and
- 31:49Speaker 1: begins to accuse her. Just a huge frenetic environment that
- 31:53Speaker 1: that you've got going on. This girl can't control her rage.
- 31:56Speaker 1: Apparently strikes her with one of the weights that they're
- 32:00Speaker 1: talking about waiting her body down with in this lake.
- 32:04Speaker 1: This goes to this idea that they're they're premeditating all
- 32:07Speaker 1: of this. You know, they had this plan laid out,
- 32:10Speaker 1: and of course it never comes off, you know, like
- 32:12Speaker 1: they think that it will. And this happens case after casey.
- 32:16Speaker 1: Sings get a lot more layered and complicated once you
- 32:18Speaker 1: get into the dynamic of it, and suddenly you lose
- 32:21Speaker 1: taste for it. You want to try to separate yourself
- 32:24Speaker 1: from this horrible, ghastly thing that that has ensued. And
- 32:27Speaker 1: apparently that's what happened, you know, Just so you know,
- 32:31Speaker 1: Dr Russell, she did make the top Timber Center her
- 32:34Speaker 1: senior class. By the way, she works so hard because
- 32:37Speaker 1: she knew her parents cannot afford to cent her to college. Um,
- 32:41Speaker 1: the dad gets laid off from work. The mom, Gloria,
- 32:45Speaker 1: took on to nursing jobs a day, then sold Mary
- 32:49Speaker 1: Kay cosmetics to help pay the bills when the electricity
- 32:52Speaker 1: was cut off. Diane Zamora was studied by candlelight. Then
- 32:57Speaker 1: she meets David am on Civil Air Patrol. Um, hold on,
- 33:05Speaker 1: Joe Scott, isn't your son in Civil Air Patrol? Yes, spam,
- 33:08Speaker 1: he is. What is that? It is auxiliary Arm of
- 33:11Speaker 1: the United States Air Force. Uh. They do search and
- 33:14Speaker 1: rescue for down planes and they work in uh disasters,
- 33:19Speaker 1: like if there's a hurricane or tornado. Uh, they'll go
- 33:22Speaker 1: out and do recovery and aid aid victims and that
- 33:25Speaker 1: sort of thing. So it's like the perfect storm. Dr
- 33:29Speaker 1: Brian Russell. These two met. They have the exact same
- 33:34Speaker 1: goals and they think that their store a cross lovers.
- 33:38Speaker 1: They both love calculus, physics, government, talk on the phone
- 33:43Speaker 1: late at night about their homework. They fall in love.
- 33:47Speaker 1: Is only high school students can do. And then when
- 33:51Speaker 1: she's away, Uh, she at Air Force Academy. He at
- 33:57Speaker 1: the U S Naval Academy, she can fastest to the
- 34:00Speaker 1: roommate her boyfriend she calls and fiancee cheated and the
- 34:06Speaker 1: only way to regain her honor is for the third
- 34:12Speaker 1: wheel to be murdered. Is that far fetched? Dr Brian Russell, Absolutely,
- 34:17Speaker 1: it's far fetched. In my career, I have evaluated, and
- 34:21Speaker 1: this might shatter, you know, some people's faith in the
- 34:24Speaker 1: medical professions, but I have evaluated literally dozens of physicians
- 34:30Speaker 1: who have been in trouble for everything ranging from uh,
- 34:35Speaker 1: trying to set up a hit on a former physician
- 34:40Speaker 1: practice partner, to dealing drugs uh in exchange for sex. Uh,
- 34:47Speaker 1: you know. And so as I've said that the appearance
- 34:52Speaker 1: of success and ambition and motivation and all of that
- 34:55Speaker 1: does not mean that underlying that cannot be a profound narcissism.
- 35:02Speaker 1: That actually narcissism is the trait that is always underneath
- 35:07Speaker 1: sociopathy and psychopathy. Because it looks at this case, she
- 35:11Speaker 1: feels entitled to commit murder to make herself feel better
- 35:16Speaker 1: about the fact she was cheated on. He feels entitled
- 35:19Speaker 1: to commit murder to hang onto his girlfriend after he's
- 35:23Speaker 1: cheated uh Narcissism is an interesting trait because to a
- 35:28Speaker 1: point it can actually help people achieve things, because, for example,
- 35:32Speaker 1: if you wanted to run for public office, you first
- 35:35Speaker 1: would have to believe that of all the people in
- 35:38Speaker 1: the community who could run, you were the most qualified
- 35:41Speaker 1: to be the leader. So it can be helpful to
- 35:43Speaker 1: a point. But when it starts causing you to feel
- 35:47Speaker 1: entitled to do things, particularly profoundly destructive things, things you
- 35:52Speaker 1: would never tolerate anyone doing to you, is where it
- 35:55Speaker 1: really gets malignant and really very dangerous. Well, the two
- 35:58Speaker 1: became obsessed with each each other, and after Diane lost
- 36:03Speaker 1: her virginity to David, which she had planned not to do.
- 36:08Speaker 1: In her mind, that was a dramatic act and it
- 36:11Speaker 1: would change her life. She said repeatedly, if I can't
- 36:16Speaker 1: be Mrs David Graham, then I will die as Ms
- 36:22Speaker 1: Diane Zamora. In other words, he was the only one
- 36:27Speaker 1: for her for life because they had sex. Okay, where
- 36:33Speaker 1: does that thinking come from, Brian Russell, You're the shrink
- 36:37Speaker 1: host of Fatal Vows on Discovery. I d what helped
- 36:40Speaker 1: me out? That means that's a commitment for life now, Well,
- 36:43Speaker 1: I think what you're seeing is the malignancy of the
- 36:50Speaker 1: narcissism in Diane Zamora, where it gets to the point
- 36:55Speaker 1: that she feels entitled to a person as as we
- 37:00Speaker 1: might feel entitled to a thing. If we, uh, we
- 37:05Speaker 1: decide we want a particular car, and we go out
- 37:07Speaker 1: and work hard and earn the money, and we buy
- 37:09Speaker 1: that car. That car belongs to us, and if somebody
- 37:12Speaker 1: else tries to drive off in it, we are are righteously,
- 37:16Speaker 1: rightly indignant. But but these these sociopathic narcissists see human
- 37:21Speaker 1: beings that way. I see it all the time on
- 37:23Speaker 1: fatal vows, where people get so uh so possessive of
- 37:29Speaker 1: another human being that if they even think that that
- 37:32Speaker 1: other human being might be looking in a different direction,
- 37:35Speaker 1: they feel entitled to administer the death penalty if they
- 37:40Speaker 1: want to to that person. And sometimes they're so hell
- 37:43Speaker 1: been on doing that that even if they go down
- 37:45Speaker 1: in it, that's all right with them, uh, rather than
- 37:49Speaker 1: rather than have taken from them what they feel they're
- 37:53Speaker 1: entitled to to have be there. This is what David
- 37:55Speaker 1: Graham says, quote, when this precious relationship we have ad
- 38:00Speaker 1: was damaged by my thoughtless actions, the only thing that
- 38:04Speaker 1: could satisfy her womanly vengeance was the life of the
- 38:09Speaker 1: one that had for an instant taken her place. I've
- 38:13Speaker 1: never heard so much bs in my whole life. Listen
- 38:17Speaker 1: to this. Look what you did? You make him do that? Diane?
- 38:29Speaker 1: No us let me mean her? Had you ever asked
- 38:44Speaker 1: him to kill Adrian Jones for you? I had no
- 38:48Speaker 1: physical part in this, even though they tried to prove
- 38:51Speaker 1: I did at first, and even though I said I
- 38:53Speaker 1: did that stupid confession, UM, I had no physical part
- 38:57Speaker 1: in it, and they proved that in court. How do
- 38:59Speaker 1: they piece together? John Limley and these two ultimately are
- 39:03Speaker 1: charged right they After hearing the stories that each Graham
- 39:09Speaker 1: and Zamora tell police, they realized that this is something
- 39:14Speaker 1: that that took some planning, that that they really had
- 39:19Speaker 1: to put a lot of thought into exactly how this
- 39:22Speaker 1: was going to unfold. Ultimately, it did not unfold the
- 39:25Speaker 1: way they thought it with um. Both later recanted their confessions.
- 39:33Speaker 1: Graham said that he was not guilty of killing Jones,
- 39:36Speaker 1: but helped to cover up the murder, which he claimed
- 39:40Speaker 1: Zamora committed by herself. Zamora claimed that Graham committed the
- 39:45Speaker 1: murder all by himself. A nine millimeter handgun alleged me
- 39:50Speaker 1: in the murder. Weapon was found in the Graham's attic,
- 39:54Speaker 1: which could be reached through David Graham's bedroom. The police
- 39:59Speaker 1: investing did the case for nine months. UH. Law enforcement
- 40:03Speaker 1: officials associated with the case stated that the sexual encounter
- 40:08Speaker 1: between Graham and Jones did not happen, but was all
- 40:12Speaker 1: invented by Graham. You know. After the murder, they resumed
- 40:16Speaker 1: life as normal. No matter what she was talking about,
- 40:21Speaker 1: Diane would always bring up David's name. They would be
- 40:24Speaker 1: together doing homework all the time. He would come over
- 40:28Speaker 1: every afternoon to run with Diane Samora. It would stay
- 40:31Speaker 1: at her home every night until he would get sleepy
- 40:34Speaker 1: and leave. Then they set off. David to the Air
- 40:37Speaker 1: Force Academy, Diane to the Naval Academy. They had special
- 40:41Speaker 1: ceremonies at their high school. UH. They were presented with
- 40:45Speaker 1: academy acceptance letters. Life went on, except that there was
- 40:52Speaker 1: a murder. Adrian was dead. In the end, their own
- 40:58Speaker 1: words bring them down, and Joe's got Morgan, Isn't that
- 41:02Speaker 1: it is? Uh? You know, people commit these acts they
- 41:06Speaker 1: think that they're going to get away with it. They
- 41:08Speaker 1: think that they've planned the perfect crime, and then they
- 41:11Speaker 1: begin to get very comfortable with this atypical reality that
- 41:14Speaker 1: they're living in, this this idea that uh, you know, well,
- 41:18Speaker 1: hey man, I I went out and I I committed
- 41:21Speaker 1: this this ghastly uh, this ghastly act. Uh, and I've
- 41:25Speaker 1: gotten away with it. At this point, it's almost like
- 41:28Speaker 1: they have to purge themselves in some way that you know,
- 41:31Speaker 1: we were reflecting earlier about these comments that she had
- 41:34Speaker 1: made at the Naval Academy. What level of arrogance does
- 41:38Speaker 1: that does that take? Uh? You know that that that
- 41:41Speaker 1: you're gonna, you know, admit to a group of people
- 41:44Speaker 1: this darkness that that kind of dwells you in this event.
- 41:48Speaker 1: And this happens over and over again, Nancy. We've seen
- 41:51Speaker 1: it time and again where people will, uh you know,
- 41:54Speaker 1: they don't adhere to the old the old adage about
- 41:56Speaker 1: loose lips sink ships. Uh. They go hadn't start running
- 42:00Speaker 1: their mouth, even though they've gone to great links as
- 42:03Speaker 1: is evidenced in this particular case, where to plan and
- 42:07Speaker 1: do all these things. They maybe they could have gotten
- 42:10Speaker 1: away with it if they've just kept their mouth shut,
- 42:12Speaker 1: but uh, fortunately they didn't get away with Well, listen
- 42:16Speaker 1: to this. One of Zamore's roommate was talking to Diane
- 42:20Speaker 1: Zamore and said, I bet you guys would do anything
- 42:22Speaker 1: for each other. Zamora says yes. The roommate says, even
- 42:25Speaker 1: kill for each other. Diane Zamora pauses and says, we
- 42:31Speaker 1: have uh, then tells a story about killing Adrian and
- 42:37Speaker 1: I don't know if it was out of pride or guilt,
- 42:40Speaker 1: but it was very soon after that the two were arrested. Nancy,
- 42:44Speaker 1: Let's listen to this from A and E's American Justice.
- 42:47Speaker 1: She told me that she had she had told her
- 42:50Speaker 1: roommates stuff. She had given him several different versions, and
- 42:54Speaker 1: but when the police came, she said she denied everything.
- 42:56Speaker 1: So I thought, well, if the flee come and talk
- 43:01Speaker 1: to me, I just tell him I don't know anything
- 43:02Speaker 1: about it. It came to a point where the detectives
- 43:05Speaker 1: were threatening, telling me that it didn't matter what I said.
- 43:08Speaker 1: I was going to get the death penalty and Diane
- 43:11Speaker 1: was gonna get the death penalty to And one of
- 43:13Speaker 1: the detectives said, David, just write us a story, tell
- 43:15Speaker 1: us something. You will make sure they go easy on you.
- 43:19Speaker 1: So I said, Okay, here, I'll write you something. I
- 43:21Speaker 1: hadn't really internalized it yet. And I guess after being
- 43:25Speaker 1: awake for so many hours, you know what I said
- 43:29Speaker 1: to the police, didn't I guess I didn't see how
- 43:33Speaker 1: any of that could affect my life. She said, Um,
- 43:37Speaker 1: this is a girl they had sex with and they
- 43:41Speaker 1: had planned her murder. Could I hope they planned her murder?
- 43:46Speaker 1: At first? They were planning to snap her neck and
- 43:49Speaker 1: drop the body the link, but it didn't go as planned.
- 43:54Speaker 1: I'll have to get out of the bathroom. Day was
- 43:56Speaker 1: just holding Diane, and she's kind of weapons and stuff,
- 44:01Speaker 1: and that this laid down my floor. I went to
- 44:04Speaker 1: sleep for a while. And she had told me one
- 44:06Speaker 1: time that she had promised David that if she had
- 44:10Speaker 1: ever cheated on him, that she would do the same
- 44:13Speaker 1: thing for him that they had already done. She would
- 44:16Speaker 1: kill the person that she cheated with. Yes, she said
- 44:19Speaker 1: that she and David went to the funeral, and that
- 44:21Speaker 1: when she went to the funeral, she saw the parents
- 44:23Speaker 1: and she saw how sad they were and it made
- 44:26Speaker 1: her feel very bad. Um, she felt sorry for the parents.
- 44:30Speaker 1: Take a listen to what Adrian Jones, the victim in
- 44:34Speaker 1: this scenarios parents say. And at noon I knew something
- 44:38Speaker 1: was really, really, really wrong. And I called my husband
- 44:42Speaker 1: up and I said, the Adrian's not here. We can't
- 44:44Speaker 1: find her anywhere. She's not at school, she's not her friends.
- 44:46Speaker 1: We called everybody in her address book looking for him,
- 44:50Speaker 1: the David's especially, I was looking at every David and
- 44:52Speaker 1: her address book. But he was extremely frustrated. You know,
- 44:56Speaker 1: you won't know what happened. And nobody he's talking to you,
- 44:59Speaker 1: nobody's answering your question. My husband had to go with
- 45:02Speaker 1: the detectives and identify her body. And I called all
- 45:06Speaker 1: my family and and I can still hear her forces saying, no,
- 45:09Speaker 1: you're wrong, and uh it was. It was the truth.
- 45:18Speaker 1: She had been shot and murdered by somebody. No one
- 45:22Speaker 1: could figure out why. I mean, here, she was, this
- 45:26Speaker 1: beautiful young girl and she's found in this really wackedy
- 45:28Speaker 1: place that I didn't know where land, and she's been
- 45:32Speaker 1: shot in the face and bludgeon in the back of
- 45:35Speaker 1: her head. And you don't know why. What did this
- 45:38Speaker 1: young sixteen year old little girl know or do? It
- 45:44Speaker 1: had caused she didn't hate her that much because she
- 45:48Speaker 1: mean a lot to me. And when she died, something
- 45:53Speaker 1: was worked out of my heart that will never be replaced.
- 45:58Speaker 1: When I heard the gualty heard, I've felt so much
- 46:03Speaker 1: pain come over to me from Mrs Graham. She knew
- 46:07Speaker 1: what I knew about that we've all lost our children.
- 46:11Speaker 1: The memories I have of Adrian Arver soccer and watching
- 46:16Speaker 1: her play and knowing that she was going to do it,
- 46:21Speaker 1: watching her hair, flipping the air, watching her with people.
- 46:25Speaker 1: John Limley, where are they now? Graham and Zamora. We're
- 46:31Speaker 1: both convicted of Adrian's murder and have spent now over
- 46:35Speaker 1: two decades behind bars, and that's where they'll remain, at
- 46:39Speaker 1: least until they are eligible for parole in twenty six.
- 46:45Speaker 1: They ended their relationship long ago and have each married
- 46:50Speaker 1: someone else meanwhile. That's though, where the similarities end when
- 46:55Speaker 1: it comes to their prison experiences. Both have made TV
- 47:00Speaker 1: appearances and in interviews have talked about Adrian's murder and
- 47:05Speaker 1: their lives behind bars. We've discovered that Graham started a
- 47:09Speaker 1: blog from prison with a fellow inmate called prison News Exposed,
- 47:15Speaker 1: and he planned to debate prison issues. According to a newspaper,
- 47:21Speaker 1: of Course, without the Internet, Graham said he posted to
- 47:24Speaker 1: the site by way of mail to a third party.
- 47:28Speaker 1: Graham has become very religious. Uh. He's also earned a
- 47:32Speaker 1: bachelor's degree in criminology, and while he had previously recanted
- 47:39Speaker 1: his confession, which was the centerpiece of the prosecution against him,
- 47:44Speaker 1: he told a reporter it was accurate and that he
- 47:48Speaker 1: deserved to be in prison. Zamora now says she is
- 47:54Speaker 1: completely innocent, that she witnessed the girl's death and helped
- 47:59Speaker 1: hide it, but did not help kill her. Take a
- 48:02Speaker 1: listen to this. Their worthy belong. Nothing they say will
- 48:06Speaker 1: ever change what is a fact, and the one priority
- 48:10Speaker 1: fact that remains is Adrian Jones died by their hands,
- 48:16Speaker 1: by their callous thinking on December four And she's a
- 48:22Speaker 1: box of ashes waiting to be buried. And that's all
- 48:25Speaker 1: I got left of my baby. Nancy Grace Crime Stories,
