0:00
Speaker 1: Fitness mom Missy Beaver's bludgeon dead in the local church
0:05
Speaker 1: basement just before a fitness class. Good evening, I mean,
0:10
Speaker 1: sye Grace, this is crime stories. I want to thank
0:13
Speaker 1: you for being with.
0:14
Speaker 2: Us, exercise mom, Missy Beavers stabbed dead?
0:24
Speaker 3: Who is this person? How did they arrive? How did
0:27
Speaker 3: they get away without even being seen?
0:30
Speaker 1: The time of the day, even the weather outside suggests
0:35
Speaker 1: this was a targeted murder.
0:37
Speaker 4: So this is our little shrine in honor of my mom.
0:42
Speaker 4: And we just have a couple of family photos laid out.
0:45
Speaker 4: This is probably our one, actually one and only family
0:48
Speaker 4: photo that we have, and we're all pretty young in it.
0:52
Speaker 1: A couple of weeks ago. Both of y'all are busy,
0:54
Speaker 1: so I had no bid to hang out with.
0:58
Speaker 5: I like went to Target and I saw one of
1:00
Speaker 5: my friends and her mom and it was like such
1:03
Speaker 5: a nice day outside, it was like a Saturday. And
1:07
Speaker 5: I got in the corners her cry because I was like,
1:12
Speaker 5: oh my god, like I forgot that, Like people do that,
1:15
Speaker 5: Like people like hang out with their moms and like
1:18
Speaker 5: co shopping and stuff like that.
1:20
Speaker 1: That is heartbreaking. That's Missy Beaver's daughter missing her mom.
1:26
Speaker 1: She said, she saw another mom and daughter she knew,
1:29
Speaker 1: and they went in the car and cried because it
1:33
Speaker 1: hit her. That's what other people do. That from our
1:37
Speaker 1: friends at CBS, the case of Missy Beaver's Unsolved, straight
1:44
Speaker 1: out to special Guests, longtime colleague and friend Alan Duke,
1:48
Speaker 1: investigative journalist, editor in chief, Lead Stories dot Com. Alan,
1:53
Speaker 1: thank you for being with us. Who would have thought
1:57
Speaker 1: that this much later you and I would still be
2:01
Speaker 1: trying to solve the Missy Beaver's case.
2:04
Speaker 6: It's heartbreaking. You know, back nine ten years ago, I
2:09
Speaker 6: was talking with Brandon Beavers and he was thinking it
2:14
Speaker 6: wouldn't take that long. You know, after two or three
2:16
Speaker 6: months has started to get frustrating, and to go on
2:20
Speaker 6: for a decade for these children to have grown up.
2:24
Speaker 6: I think the youngest was in the second grade when
2:26
Speaker 6: this happened, and I suppose she's probably about to graduate
2:30
Speaker 6: or has graduated from high school by now. They're talking
2:33
Speaker 6: about getting married and all of this without their mother.
2:37
Speaker 6: It's still a mystery. Who was that person in that
2:40
Speaker 6: makeshift police swat gear, walking with a hammer and a
2:46
Speaker 6: pick down the hallway of their church and then killing
2:50
Speaker 6: Missy Beavers. It's unbelievable that all of the scientific, the
2:54
Speaker 6: forensic analysis that you can do not has not developed
3:00
Speaker 6: a solution to this. We've had other cases like this,
3:03
Speaker 6: but but this one is the one that really sticks
3:05
Speaker 6: in my heart.
3:06
Speaker 7: The suspect ride of the church first had forced entry
3:09
Speaker 7: into the location. Missy arrived a few minutes later.
3:14
Speaker 8: Excuse me.
3:15
Speaker 7: First time surveillance captured the suspect on video was about
3:18
Speaker 7: ten minutes before four am. Miss Beavers arrived at about
3:22
Speaker 7: four sixteen in the parking lot and entered the church
3:25
Speaker 7: immediately a few minutes later she was inside the church,
3:29
Speaker 7: not realizing the intruder was already inside, and shortly thereafter
3:33
Speaker 7: she was murdered inside of the church. I'm not going
3:36
Speaker 7: to discuss the details of how Miss Beavers was murdered.
3:40
Speaker 7: Our communication center received some calls to nine to one
3:43
Speaker 7: to one at about five am reporting the incident to
3:46
Speaker 7: a Middle Othi police department.
3:49
Speaker 6: Just want to.
3:49
Speaker 7: Reiterate that our top priority is finding missus killer.
3:52
Speaker 1: Straight back out to Alan, joining us editor in chief
3:56
Speaker 1: Lead Stories dot Com, Alan, Let's start at the beginning.
4:02
Speaker 1: Missy Beavers ultimate mom, gladiator mom. Remember that she led,
4:08
Speaker 1: She didn't just attend she led the gladiator style aerobics
4:13
Speaker 1: workout there at the mid Lothian Church, which, coming from
4:17
Speaker 1: a spot in the middle of nowhere, rural Bibb County,
4:21
Speaker 1: we had to drop twenty five minutes to get to
4:22
Speaker 1: McDonald's in the middle of nowhere, mid Lothian, Texas, zero
4:30
Speaker 1: crime rate. She's at the church, mid Lothian Church, four
4:35
Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning to prepare for one of those
4:39
Speaker 1: excruciating mom workouts that they have before they wake the
4:44
Speaker 1: children up and before they go to work. Uh agony.
4:49
Speaker 1: But she loved it, and so did all of her students.
4:52
Speaker 1: So she is there at a church in the middle
4:55
Speaker 1: of nowhere for a m It's dark outside, okay, I
5:00
Speaker 1: said the scene pick it up.
5:03
Speaker 6: Well, there's actually some video that tells us what happened
5:07
Speaker 6: before her murder, including outside of the church. There was
5:11
Speaker 6: the video that you and I examined so closely nine
5:15
Speaker 6: or so years ago of the Ultima that was driving
5:18
Speaker 6: through the gun store parking lot just up Highway to
5:21
Speaker 6: eighty seven, pulled in, did some mysterious parking and turning
5:26
Speaker 6: around wondering what were they doing. Notice it's raining in
5:29
Speaker 6: the middle of this, and eventually The theory is that
5:33
Speaker 6: this car, this ultima, because of the timing of it
5:36
Speaker 6: and the remoteness of all of this, was probably related
5:41
Speaker 6: to this murder. But where did the car park. I've
5:45
Speaker 6: looked at the aerial the aerials of this area. It's
5:50
Speaker 6: surrounded by woods. Unless you pull into the parking lot
5:53
Speaker 6: and walk into the church, you're going to have to
5:55
Speaker 6: walk in through woods, that kind of thing. It is raining,
5:59
Speaker 6: it was messy, and it was early in the morning,
6:01
Speaker 6: but this is remote inside the church. Speaking of looking
6:07
Speaker 6: at video, just today I started looking for the first
6:11
Speaker 6: time in several years at the interior video, and I
6:14
Speaker 6: noticed some things Nancy, I don't remember noticing. If you
6:19
Speaker 6: watch him walking or he or her walking down the
6:22
Speaker 6: hall that hammer is in the left hand there, opening
6:27
Speaker 6: those dutch doors and then continuing down. And then what's
6:32
Speaker 6: odd about this video is in a couple of seconds
6:35
Speaker 6: the video freezes, it stops, and you see him the
6:39
Speaker 6: person again, walking back. But one of the odd things
6:42
Speaker 6: is that the forty two second mark, as the killer
6:47
Speaker 6: approaches a door in the hallway. For the first time
6:50
Speaker 6: today I noticed another tool which could have been the
6:53
Speaker 6: murder weapon, a pick. It's not the hammer, that I
6:56
Speaker 6: was thinking was used to kill Missy Beavers. There is
7:00
Speaker 6: a pick that is in the right hand, while the
7:03
Speaker 6: hammer is in the left hand, while the killer right
7:07
Speaker 6: right here, while the killer is trying to pry open
7:10
Speaker 6: that door.
7:11
Speaker 1: Okay to Joseph Scott Morgan joining us and everybody on
7:16
Speaker 1: the panel, please jump in. Just got Professor Forensics, Jacksonville
7:20
Speaker 1: State University. He is the author of Blood Beneath My
7:23
Speaker 1: Feet on Amazon, and he is the star of a
7:26
Speaker 1: hit podcast, Body Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan. But for
7:31
Speaker 1: our purposes, he is a death investigator who I first
7:35
Speaker 1: met when he was at the Fulton County Medical Examiner's
7:37
Speaker 1: office many years ago when I was prosecuting, and he
7:40
Speaker 1: has over ten thousand death scenes under his belt. You
7:44
Speaker 1: know what's interesting, Well, everything that Alan Duke says is interesting,
7:49
Speaker 1: but the fact that every time you re examine a
7:53
Speaker 1: case you find something new. I've always found that to
7:56
Speaker 1: be true. It can be a tiny tidbit, but something
7:59
Speaker 1: new or you see in a different way. Did you
8:01
Speaker 1: hear what he just said about a pick?
8:04
Speaker 8: Yep, yep, And it actually fits in Nancy with the
8:09
Speaker 8: cause of death that they've listed for Missy all these years.
8:13
Speaker 8: Actually multiple puncture wounds, Nancy and Alan's mentioning a pick
8:18
Speaker 8: well that would fit in, that would fit in with
8:21
Speaker 8: the pathology findings. Missy sustained multiple puncture wounds to the
8:29
Speaker 8: head and also to the chest, Nancy. So that gives
8:33
Speaker 8: you an indication, I think from a death investigative perspective,
8:37
Speaker 8: in the dynamics of what happened to her, where she
8:40
Speaker 8: was positioned, how she was positioned, and also how the
8:44
Speaker 8: perpetrator was positioned relative to her when this individual savagely
8:50
Speaker 8: murdered her. Nancy.
8:51
Speaker 1: Doctor Jerald Utter is with US clinical psychologist specializing in
8:55
Speaker 1: psychological evaluations and risk assessments for individuals in the justice system.
9:02
Speaker 1: Author of Mainlining Philly Survival, Hope, Resisting Drug Addiction, and
9:07
Speaker 1: after Shock, How Past Events shake up your life Today
9:12
Speaker 1: and more. She is producer and star of Utter Nonsense,
9:16
Speaker 1: a documentary. Doctor Gerlyn, thank you for being with us.
9:20
Speaker 1: I find it very interesting and I'm sure it means something.
9:24
Speaker 1: It's probative, it proves something, the cause of death, the
9:29
Speaker 1: manner of death. She was attacked multiple times. Now hold on,
9:35
Speaker 1: let me give you some more facts, Alan Duke, isn't
9:38
Speaker 1: it true? That At first people suggested this was a
9:42
Speaker 1: burglary of a church gone wrong. What were they going
9:45
Speaker 1: to steal the video equipment? Please? That never works in
9:49
Speaker 1: any local church ever. But why kill her so many
9:54
Speaker 1: times over with a blunt object the way they did?
9:59
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, the only thing that this burglar took
10:02
Speaker 6: was Missy Beaver's life. There's nothing reported stolen from the church.
10:07
Speaker 6: And as you watch the video, it doesn't look like
10:09
Speaker 6: a typical burglar. It looks like a search just looking
10:12
Speaker 6: around familiarizing yourself with the scene, and this burglar came
10:17
Speaker 6: prepared with murder weapons. If you notice that pick I
10:20
Speaker 6: was mentioning, ends up in a tool belt on the
10:24
Speaker 6: killer's hip, the right hip.
10:27
Speaker 1: Let's start that video again. As you're speaking, allent, repeat
10:31
Speaker 1: what you just sat. I find it very significant, right,
10:34
Speaker 1: So this burglar, if that's what it was, the only
10:39
Speaker 1: thing the burglar stole was Missy Beaver's life.
10:41
Speaker 6: As you watched this person going up and down the hall,
10:46
Speaker 6: I only recently noticed that there was a pick. It
10:49
Speaker 6: was hanging from the apparently the belt and approaching this
10:53
Speaker 6: door trying to pry it open. You will see the
10:57
Speaker 6: hammer being used to try to pry it open while
10:59
Speaker 6: there is a pick. It's at the forty two second
11:01
Speaker 6: mark on the YouTube video. You will find that there
11:05
Speaker 6: is a pick in the right hand, which I didn't
11:11
Speaker 6: notice it before, and it kind of shocked me this
11:14
Speaker 6: week when I was looking at this video and said,
11:17
Speaker 6: why did I even think about that? I assume the
11:19
Speaker 6: police did.
11:21
Speaker 1: Let's assume that, so it's a right handed purp. But
11:25
Speaker 1: I don't know why, Alan Duke, you even suggest this
11:29
Speaker 1: is a burglary. The purp and I'm not saying the
11:33
Speaker 1: guy because I have serious questions as to whether it
11:36
Speaker 1: is a guy. But the purp lay in wait. If
11:39
Speaker 1: they wanted something, go get it and leave. And you know, Alan,
11:43
Speaker 1: as you and I have discussed many many times, all
11:45
Speaker 1: the way back to our HLN days, with burglaries gone wrong.
11:51
Speaker 1: In other words, the burglar comes in and somebody comes
11:53
Speaker 1: inbody comes home where they find someone in there, they leave.
11:58
Speaker 1: The statistics are overwhelming. Burglar comes into typically steal and
12:03
Speaker 1: when they're confronted with a person they high talent. Like
12:06
Speaker 1: in Guthree, for Pete's sake, that was not a burglary
12:09
Speaker 1: gone wrong. The burglar didn't coming and go oh my
12:12
Speaker 1: stars missus Guthrie's home. Let's take an eighty four year
12:14
Speaker 1: old woman with us. It's just ridiculous. Same thing here.
12:17
Speaker 1: Is this not a burglary, it's a killing.
12:21
Speaker 6: I had two burglars come into my home a year
12:24
Speaker 6: ago and in our garage. My wife and I went
12:27
Speaker 6: down confronted them. These were two young men about thirty
12:31
Speaker 6: years old. They could have beaten those that out of
12:33
Speaker 6: me and my wife, but they didn't. They fled. I
12:36
Speaker 6: got some great video of it too. They were afraid.
12:39
Speaker 6: They did not want to be of course you did.
12:41
Speaker 1: Did you give yourself the very first interview?
12:45
Speaker 6: Yes, I did.
12:46
Speaker 1: Alan. That just bears out what I'm saying. This was planned.
12:50
Speaker 1: Who's driving around in a parking lot in the pouring
12:53
Speaker 1: rain at four am, and that you know is the
12:56
Speaker 1: same person. The population there is what three or four thousand?
13:02
Speaker 6: They could have known missing was going to be there
13:04
Speaker 6: because guess what the gladiator's class was posted where on Facebook?
13:09
Speaker 1: Okay, doctor jerreln Utter joining us. I was coming to
13:12
Speaker 1: you earlier, doctor Utter, because the number of blows which
13:17
Speaker 1: included her torso all over her, that is killing her
13:23
Speaker 1: multiple times over. If it had been a burglary, a
13:27
Speaker 1: overwhelmingly the burglar would leave. They're not there to kill somebody,
13:33
Speaker 1: They're there to get something. And what are you really
13:35
Speaker 1: going to get? At a church they clean out the
13:38
Speaker 1: offering plate immediately after the offering's taken. There's nothing of
13:42
Speaker 1: value there. What do they want the VHS equipment? No,
13:47
Speaker 1: And plus the killer was lying in wait waiting for
13:54
Speaker 1: Missy Beavers. They could have taken whatever they wanted and left,
13:57
Speaker 1: but they didn't.
14:01
Speaker 3: Yeah, so, Nancy, I watched the videos, I read the articles,
14:06
Speaker 3: and one of the first things that I noticed was
14:08
Speaker 3: how rural the actual area is to your point, So
14:12
Speaker 3: no one is going to this area without a plan.
14:15
Speaker 3: So to me, it feels very planned and very calculated.
14:19
Speaker 3: Also the fact that the message was on Facebook promoting
14:22
Speaker 3: the class that miss Beaver's taught, So anybody that's going
14:26
Speaker 3: to this area is going there with intention. If it
14:29
Speaker 3: was a burglary, to your point, they would take what
14:31
Speaker 3: they want to get and leave. If they were to
14:33
Speaker 3: run into her, if it was what we would call
14:35
Speaker 3: her traditional burglary, they would probably get scared, run away,
14:38
Speaker 3: or if they had a weapon or you know, they
14:41
Speaker 3: would try to maybe you know, push the person or
14:43
Speaker 3: maim them to an extent so they can leave and
14:45
Speaker 3: get out of there. What you're looking at as far
14:48
Speaker 3: as her manner of death is what we call overkill.
14:51
Speaker 3: So she wasn't just maimed in order for them to
14:54
Speaker 3: burglarize something to leave. It was very personal. It felt
14:57
Speaker 3: like a very personal attack about her head and about
15:01
Speaker 3: her chest. So the person that did this from a
15:04
Speaker 3: psychological perspective, is somebody that felt they had a connection
15:08
Speaker 3: to her, maybe had a connection to her, and that
15:10
Speaker 3: she was very much targeted because it was overkill. They
15:14
Speaker 3: wanted to create pain, they wanted to hurt her, they
15:17
Speaker 3: wanted to hurt you know, potentially folks that knew her
15:19
Speaker 3: were in her world. So absolutely right, not a burglary.
15:23
Speaker 3: Definitely something that we would consider overkilled due to a
15:25
Speaker 3: personal connection that this person may have felt to Miss Beaver's.
15:32
Speaker 9: I got my phone rang at about five am and
15:40
Speaker 9: it was one of the one of the campers who
15:44
Speaker 9: of me and Missy have known for a long time,
15:47
Speaker 9: and he said, Brandon, you've got to come down here.
15:50
Speaker 9: He said there's been an accident. And I said, what
15:52
Speaker 9: do you mean. I said, I'm not at home and
15:57
Speaker 9: he said, you know you need to come come here.
15:59
Speaker 9: There's he's you know. I got another phone call from
16:02
Speaker 9: the scene from a female mid Lothian officer and she
16:09
Speaker 9: said that Missy's no longer with us and I didn't know.
16:15
Speaker 6: Did you did it register that?
16:17
Speaker 1: She meant like Missy had died or was killed.
16:21
Speaker 9: That's we went in there, my dad and I both
16:24
Speaker 9: my dad went there kind of as in a support role,
16:28
Speaker 9: and we met in one room and they started asking
16:36
Speaker 9: some questions. You know that we're pointed, you know, hey,
16:39
Speaker 9: you know, where have you been? You know, you know whatever,
16:43
Speaker 9: and then they left the room. I said, if there's
16:46
Speaker 9: anything that I can contribute to this to find out
16:50
Speaker 9: what happened? Who's responsible? I said, I'm not. I'm not
16:55
Speaker 9: going to run from it.
16:56
Speaker 1: That is Missy Beaver's husband, Brandon Beaver, speaking to Scott Brook's,
17:00
Speaker 1: a president at the Waxahachie son Alan, do you let's
17:04
Speaker 1: talk about the husband, which is typically the first place
17:08
Speaker 1: you start a murder investigation when a married woman is
17:12
Speaker 1: found dead.
17:14
Speaker 6: Well, the position he was in, he still had to
17:18
Speaker 6: raise his three children, he had to go on or
17:21
Speaker 6: try to recreate this normal life without his wife, and
17:26
Speaker 6: added to that is the suspicion. You know, we were
17:30
Speaker 6: calling him. Everybody in the world was calling him. His
17:33
Speaker 6: neighbors were suspicious, looking at him, side eyed perhaps, and
17:38
Speaker 6: he was getting letters from people he didn't know accusing
17:41
Speaker 6: him of something. Yet I've talked to him several times,
17:44
Speaker 6: and I can tell you I did not get any
17:47
Speaker 6: indication that he was anything but sincere and the police
17:52
Speaker 6: investigators obviously didn't have any timeline or any DNA or
17:56
Speaker 6: any other evidence to connect him. Now, I don't think
18:00
Speaker 6: they've ruled anybody out as a suspect. They say that,
18:03
Speaker 6: but I don't see any reason to believe that Brandon
18:07
Speaker 6: was a suspect. I think just the size of the
18:11
Speaker 6: person in the video is not doesn't exactly match him.
18:15
Speaker 6: So and the.
18:16
Speaker 1: Timing, no, it doesn't match him at all. Let's take
18:19
Speaker 1: a look at it, Alan Duke. He's a tall guy,
18:22
Speaker 1: and I have watched him walk and he does not
18:27
Speaker 1: walk like this. Look at how the purp is walking.
18:31
Speaker 1: That is not at all even remotely similar to the
18:34
Speaker 1: way that Brandon Beavers walks. And I've got to tell you,
18:38
Speaker 1: I put Brandon Beavers under the microscope and I kept
18:41
Speaker 1: him there for months and months until I compared the gate.
18:48
Speaker 1: The gate of the purp never breaks. It's this gate,
18:52
Speaker 1: and that is not how Brandon Beavers walks simply put.
18:57
Speaker 6: Yeah, this killer is between five in five seven. If
19:01
Speaker 6: it's a man, it's a short man. If it's a woman,
19:05
Speaker 6: about average, perhaps, but we don't even know that. But
19:09
Speaker 6: Brandon doesn't even know that. I think he suspects. The
19:12
Speaker 6: last I've heard, he suspects it was actually a woman
19:15
Speaker 6: who killed his wife.
19:16
Speaker 1: I suspected it too, and I'll tell you why. At
19:19
Speaker 1: a certain point, the purp throws out a hip and
19:24
Speaker 1: it's just a feminine gesture. And I know I'm stereotyping,
19:29
Speaker 1: but I know what I know, and that's my observation.
19:31
Speaker 1: Joe Scott Morgan, let's talk about the scene. Let's talk
19:36
Speaker 1: about the crime scene and what if anything we can
19:40
Speaker 1: glean And is there a possibility, as in Nancy Guthrie's case,
19:45
Speaker 1: that the initial scene was botched. I hate to even
19:49
Speaker 1: say that.
19:51
Speaker 8: Yeah, I suppose that anything's possible here at this point
19:55
Speaker 8: in time. Looking back on this case, Nancy, I first
19:59
Speaker 8: started covering this with you at Hilen all those years ago,
20:03
Speaker 8: and you know, we had several thoughts about this. We've
20:06
Speaker 8: got broken class at the scene which this individual was
20:09
Speaker 8: walking about. If I remember correctly, I might be misremembering.
20:13
Speaker 8: The actually knocked out a couple of windows with this
20:15
Speaker 8: instrument that was left behind.
20:17
Speaker 1: I hope that they can please please hold on put it.
20:22
Speaker 1: Jos got up. You know that was just a staging.
20:27
Speaker 1: Let's make it look like a break in b as
20:30
Speaker 1: it was not. That's no, that didn't happen. I mean,
20:33
Speaker 1: I agree with you, there was glass. I think it was.
20:36
Speaker 8: My point. Forensically, what I'm thinking about is if this,
20:41
Speaker 8: if these items were touched anyway, if that instrument they
20:44
Speaker 8: were using transferred anything onto the surfaces that it was
20:48
Speaker 8: making contact with, If this person had potentially handled that
20:53
Speaker 8: instrument ungloved in some way, some kind of trace element
20:57
Speaker 8: may have been transferred over. You know, when you see them,
21:00
Speaker 8: they're completely clad and this garb that they have. You know,
21:05
Speaker 8: one of the things that we think about a trace elements, hair,
21:08
Speaker 8: skin cells, all these sorts of things that have fallen
21:11
Speaker 8: off they've made contact with, right Nancy. And also I'm
21:15
Speaker 8: thinking about these injuries that Missy sustained, going back to
21:19
Speaker 8: my earlier comment about puncture wounds. If this instrument. Obviously,
21:25
Speaker 8: if that is the instruments making contact with her body,
21:28
Speaker 8: did it leave anything behind? It goes back to Lecarte's principle,
21:32
Speaker 8: right every contact leaves a trace, does it go back
21:35
Speaker 8: to anything specifically matching that weapon? I'm thinking tool marks.
21:40
Speaker 8: I'm also thinking trace evidence here, and how much do
21:43
Speaker 8: they still have retained? How stable is this evidence that
21:46
Speaker 8: they have, because there's going to be a lot of
21:48
Speaker 8: people that are going to be picking over this evidence.
21:50
Speaker 8: Who do they allow to have this? I'm hoping, and
21:54
Speaker 8: you know, maybe it's a little boy. I mean, I
21:56
Speaker 8: hope that Texas Rangers are on this case because I
22:00
Speaker 8: would really hope that the Texas Department of Public Safety
22:03
Speaker 8: will form up maybe a brand new group of cold
22:07
Speaker 8: case investigators. To Allen's point earlier and to what you
22:10
Speaker 8: said to him, it's always better to get a new
22:14
Speaker 8: generation of people that can put their eyes on things,
22:16
Speaker 8: because they very well might see something Nancy, they haven't
22:19
Speaker 8: seen before that the old investigators have not seen. I
22:22
Speaker 8: don't even know how many of these people are still around.
22:24
Speaker 8: And you can't tell me that the little Mendelothian, Texas
22:28
Speaker 8: Police Department is running down all the leads. This is
22:31
Speaker 8: a broad spectrum event that took place. This is a
22:34
Speaker 8: targeted event. This is somebody that knew her. I think
22:38
Speaker 8: this is somebody that wanted to brutalize her because Nancy,
22:41
Speaker 8: with an instrument like this, it would essentially take one blow.
22:45
Speaker 8: That's not what we're talking about. We're talking about penetrative
22:48
Speaker 8: crushing injuries here. That was pure and total violence.
22:57
Speaker 7: Release some additional surveillance footage from inside the church just
23:00
Speaker 7: a few minutes ago, and that could be found on
23:02
Speaker 7: our social media sites. We really do believe that somebody
23:06
Speaker 7: still knows that this person is out there. Somebody knows
23:09
Speaker 7: who this person is and haven't yet come forward. We're
23:12
Speaker 7: convinced of that, and we ask the public to analyze
23:15
Speaker 7: the footage once again. Watch the mannerisms of walking style
23:18
Speaker 7: of the suspect. If they have any information, please contact us.
23:22
Speaker 1: Alan Duke, that is Kevin Johnson, Assistant Chief Midlothian PD. Alan,
23:28
Speaker 1: He's right, somebody does know. Let's talk about the marriage problems,
23:33
Speaker 1: and again I'm convinced that the person walking around that
23:37
Speaker 1: church is not the husband. What can you tell me
23:41
Speaker 1: about financial problems and more important sex affairs?
23:46
Speaker 6: Well, like many couples. They have financial problems. Email messages
23:52
Speaker 6: showed that. But I think most interesting not long before
23:56
Speaker 6: this happened, just a matter of weeks missing taking a trip.
24:00
Speaker 6: I think it was to San Diego on a fitness trip,
24:04
Speaker 6: and had been with some people there. There's some speculation
24:06
Speaker 6: about that one of the most mysterious things were linked
24:10
Speaker 6: in messages from this man who had been exchanging flirtatious
24:16
Speaker 6: LinkedIn messages with Missy. My understanding is that he might
24:21
Speaker 6: have been ruled out, but still in my mind that
24:25
Speaker 6: is suspicious. Maybe not him, but maybe somebody connected to
24:28
Speaker 6: that person was upset about what was going on.
24:34
Speaker 1: Okay, why are you dancing around the subject? Were they
24:37
Speaker 1: having sex affairs? Simple?
24:39
Speaker 6: Yes, No, The messages are called flirtatious. I think that's
24:43
Speaker 6: the best. We don't know. I don't know if they were.
24:47
Speaker 6: You can only suppose it what was going on. You
24:51
Speaker 6: know that does happen in marriages sometimes, and it does
24:56
Speaker 6: lead to murders sometimes, but of course most no, I
25:00
Speaker 6: would hope.
25:01
Speaker 1: Dave mac joining US Crime Stories investigative reporter I recalled
25:05
Speaker 1: distinctly at the time sex affairs were alleged, Dave Ellen,
25:11
Speaker 1: do I don't care. I don't care who's sleeping with who,
25:15
Speaker 1: cats and dogs sleeping together, don't care. I'm not the
25:19
Speaker 1: church lady. I'm trying to get information regarding a potential
25:24
Speaker 1: motive so I can get to the killer. I don't care.
25:28
Speaker 1: Who's doing what with who, doesn't matter, Dave mac were
25:32
Speaker 1: they having sex affairs?
25:34
Speaker 10: According to a search warrant released my law enforcement, Missy
25:39
Speaker 10: Beavers was allegedly having an affair.
25:41
Speaker 1: What about him, Brandon Beavers?
25:43
Speaker 10: They say affairs plural meaning law enforcement, But I'm not
25:47
Speaker 10: seeing anything on Brandon specifically having an affair. The couple
25:51
Speaker 10: had serious financial struggles that also came out during the investigation,
25:56
Speaker 10: and they had text messages back and forth between Brandon
25:59
Speaker 10: and Missy about their financial issues. The other external to
26:03
Speaker 10: the marriage, intimate relationships, seem to be on Missy's side
26:08
Speaker 10: of things.
26:09
Speaker 1: Okay, not judging, don't care. I'm trying to get to
26:13
Speaker 1: a potential motive because to me, Alan Duke, let's see
26:17
Speaker 1: that video again. This is the best thing we've got
26:19
Speaker 1: in the case. Never have gotten any substantial DNA nothing.
26:25
Speaker 1: Keep on the video. You've got a slew footed killer.
26:30
Speaker 1: Toes point out, they're short around five to two to
26:35
Speaker 1: five seven, the way they walk. I'm just telling you,
26:41
Speaker 1: I think it's a woman. I've always thought it was
26:44
Speaker 1: a woman. What is the motive. It's not a sex attack,
26:48
Speaker 1: it's not a theft, it's not a burglary. So what
26:52
Speaker 1: would the motive be? Anger? Hate? Revenge Alan Duke over
26:57
Speaker 1: an alleged affair between Missy Beaver and a woman's husband.
27:03
Speaker 6: It's what's been in my mind for all these years
27:06
Speaker 6: is that that is the most obvious thing because it happens,
27:11
Speaker 6: and it's a mystery to me as to why the
27:15
Speaker 6: Midlothian Police haven't been able to get to the bottom
27:18
Speaker 6: of that. Keep in mind about every two years they've
27:20
Speaker 6: changed investigators, which may be good, may be bad. But
27:24
Speaker 6: the one that took over in twenty eighteen, Sergeant Vaughn
27:28
Speaker 6: Andy Vaughn, is no longer even a detective there. He's
27:32
Speaker 6: in charge of support services for the department, which is
27:34
Speaker 6: an administrative thing. If you look at his resumes with the
27:37
Speaker 6: other resumes, what was their qualifications really? To dig into this,
27:42
Speaker 6: I hate to say this, but this was a small
27:44
Speaker 6: town department. Joe can certainly speak to this. My question
27:49
Speaker 6: is I've always wondered, also, what did they do at
27:53
Speaker 6: the scene that might have compromised the scene? It was raining?
27:57
Speaker 6: Where were their footprints? Why couldn't they they get something?
28:00
Speaker 6: Now the advances in a decade in DNA testing. I mean,
28:05
Speaker 6: I'll send in my DNA if it helps the case.
28:08
Speaker 6: Everybody seems to have sent their DNA in and they're
28:12
Speaker 6: not able to track anything. What are they doing? Why
28:14
Speaker 6: after ten years, hasn't the forensic science advanced to the
28:18
Speaker 6: point that we can solve this?
28:20
Speaker 1: And I also wonder how often they're sending what they
28:22
Speaker 1: do have in for repeat testing. Okay, back to what
28:27
Speaker 1: you're saying to Doctor Jeralin Utter joining us a clinical
28:32
Speaker 1: psychologist specializing in forensic cases. Doctor Jerlin the mode of
28:38
Speaker 1: death repeat stabbings, potentially with a pickaxe or a pick
28:46
Speaker 1: to the head, very often in revenge or anger killing.
28:51
Speaker 1: Specifically when women are the victim. Their beauty is destroyed,
28:56
Speaker 1: their face is desecrated. Think about kill gonsolves and Mattie Morgan,
29:03
Speaker 1: Brian Coberger kill them, stab them, including in their faces.
29:11
Speaker 1: That's horrific to even imagine some of their teeth were
29:16
Speaker 1: actually dislodged. He was desecrating their beauty because of his
29:22
Speaker 1: repressed sex problems. According to some experts, does this seem
29:28
Speaker 1: like an angry wife Hale bent on revenge?
29:34
Speaker 3: This this definitely seems like someone that wants to inflict
29:37
Speaker 3: pain and to your point, desecrate her. Because again I'll
29:41
Speaker 3: make the statement we referenced it as overkill. It wasn't
29:44
Speaker 3: like they were just trying to kill her and move on.
29:47
Speaker 3: They wanted to inflict pain. And then even if she
29:51
Speaker 3: died quickly, and Joe Morgan's the one that can answer that,
29:53
Speaker 3: they wanted to mangle her, you know, her face, her chest.
29:57
Speaker 3: That's what you want to pay attention to, because maybe
30:00
Speaker 3: they are trying to desecrate her beauty and you know,
30:03
Speaker 3: make it so there's a close casket and really really
30:06
Speaker 3: hurt her and maim her. But another thing that I
30:09
Speaker 3: was thinking, and again, Nancy, this is just the thought.
30:13
Speaker 3: We're surmising or hypothesizing that this could be a female.
30:16
Speaker 3: But this female could also be the one that she
30:19
Speaker 3: may have had a relationship with. We don't know. We're
30:22
Speaker 3: making the assumption that this could be an angry wife.
30:24
Speaker 3: But also let's just be opening.
30:26
Speaker 1: Okay, I've got it on good authority that all that
30:30
Speaker 1: her affair was with a male. But you're right to
30:34
Speaker 1: pursue every possible avenue you have to, and if you don't,
30:39
Speaker 1: you'll hear about it at trial. Hey, did you focus
30:42
Speaker 1: on my client first? Did you get tunnel vision? Did
30:44
Speaker 1: you ever look at this? Did you ever look at that?
30:46
Speaker 1: So they have to investigate exactly what you just said
30:50
Speaker 1: to you. Joe Scott Morgan following up on what doctor
30:53
Speaker 1: jeralden Utter just said. The manner of death. Wow, that
30:59
Speaker 1: many blows to her head, her torso, including her breasts.
31:05
Speaker 1: What is that telling you? You've seen this before.
31:09
Speaker 8: It's overkilled, Nancy, particularly with a sharp instrument. Okay, So
31:13
Speaker 8: remember what I said earlier about we can get an
31:16
Speaker 8: idea of the physical relationship. And I'm talking about it
31:19
Speaker 8: as a crime scene, all right, just to qualify that
31:22
Speaker 8: relative to the perpetrator and Missy, I think that she
31:26
Speaker 8: would have had to have been on her back because
31:28
Speaker 8: they're talking about her sustaining these wounds to the chest.
31:31
Speaker 8: This goes to this idea that maybe you know they're
31:35
Speaker 8: saying head that could mean face. And I say one
31:38
Speaker 8: other thing too, Nancy, When I look at this individual
31:42
Speaker 8: kind of ambulate around first, off, they pronate, which means
31:45
Speaker 8: they turn in their feet. They're walking on the balls
31:48
Speaker 8: of their feet. If you look at the right leg,
31:50
Speaker 8: it looks as though there could potentially be some kind
31:52
Speaker 8: of existent injury because even though they both feet pronate,
31:57
Speaker 8: the one on the right looks like they favored that
32:00
Speaker 8: leg as well. Another bit here. This person is a
32:03
Speaker 8: real slob, whoever they are. They're dressed also in riot
32:07
Speaker 8: gear because what this is, what this is when you
32:10
Speaker 8: see them, they're carrying around a lot of weight. This
32:13
Speaker 8: is very bulky. They've got a vest on. It looks
32:16
Speaker 8: like they've got a helmet on. They had to have
32:19
Speaker 8: snuck up on Missy. Missy. You know you showed that
32:22
Speaker 8: image just a second ago of Missy climbing that rope.
32:27
Speaker 8: She is in top shade. Okay, this person is not
32:33
Speaker 8: going to go face to face with her because they're moving.
32:37
Speaker 8: They almost look like the micheline man. Okay, and they're
32:40
Speaker 8: having to attack her. This is a very dynamic environment, Nancy.
32:44
Speaker 8: This person is easily i think identifiable just visually you
32:49
Speaker 8: begin to do gate analysis. If she or he has
32:53
Speaker 8: got a bad leg, he can't change that, and you
32:56
Speaker 8: can't change the way you walk. This is something we
32:58
Speaker 8: have understood forensics for a long long time, so I
33:02
Speaker 8: think that the field can be narrowed here significantly. I'm
33:05
Speaker 8: wondering if the FBI has gotten involved with this and
33:09
Speaker 8: they've done an actual gait analysis on her or him,
33:13
Speaker 8: because that's the reality of what they can do at
33:16
Speaker 8: this point. You couple that with, as Alan mentioned earlier,
33:20
Speaker 8: with modern forensics, modern in our context relative to DNA evidence,
33:25
Speaker 8: how sensitive everything is now. I just hope that they
33:29
Speaker 8: have enough sample of whatever it is they had in
33:31
Speaker 8: the beginning that they can still run it through to testing.
33:35
Speaker 1: Imagine this video with the helmet off and let's just
33:40
Speaker 1: pretend a long ponytail hanging down the back. Keep watching
33:45
Speaker 1: as the person walks, keep watching. I mean, Alan Duke,
33:52
Speaker 1: I can totally visualize this being a woman right there.
33:55
Speaker 6: There's another thing that did not exist ten years ago
33:58
Speaker 6: that they can use. That's a on you see all
34:01
Speaker 6: these fake AI videos. There probably are AI tools now
34:07
Speaker 6: or will be in another week or two. The way
34:09
Speaker 6: it's going that they can take this video and they
34:11
Speaker 6: can sharpen it, they can change it, they can generate
34:17
Speaker 6: more detail in it, and we're going to see more
34:20
Speaker 6: have they done that. Have they thought about doing that?
34:23
Speaker 6: I think that they should because we're ten years down
34:26
Speaker 6: the road and things are so much more, so much
34:31
Speaker 6: more as possible with analyzing video, and I want to
34:34
Speaker 6: see them do that.
34:36
Speaker 1: The population there was just twenty two thousand people at
34:41
Speaker 1: the time Missy was murdered.
34:43
Speaker 10: Mid Lothian, Texas is having some severe weather, not severe
34:47
Speaker 10: enough to prevent mother of three, Missy Beavers, early morning
34:50
Speaker 10: fitness class. As you posts on Facebook, if it's raining,
34:54
Speaker 10: we're still training. No excuses. You are gladiators, MISSI informed students.
34:59
Speaker 10: Because the rain, they will be training inside the church
35:02
Speaker 10: rather than the parking lot. Beavers arrives at the church
35:05
Speaker 10: before the sun comes up to get things prepared for
35:07
Speaker 10: her gladiators.
35:08
Speaker 11: Missy Beavers arrives at Creekside Church at four sixteen am
35:12
Speaker 11: and begins setting up for her five am fitness class.
35:15
Speaker 11: She doesn't realize there's someone else in the building. Video
35:18
Speaker 11: surveillance inside Creekside Church shows a person dressed in full
35:21
Speaker 11: police SWAT tactical gear walking through the halls of the
35:24
Speaker 11: church with an unusual gait while clutching a hammer. The
35:27
Speaker 11: unknown person uses force to get into the church when
35:30
Speaker 11: he is first seen on video about three point fifty
35:32
Speaker 11: am Alan Duke.
35:34
Speaker 1: She put it out there, even if it rains, we're
35:38
Speaker 1: going to train anyone interested at all, and Missy Beavers
35:43
Speaker 1: could find that.
35:45
Speaker 6: Yes, it was obvious if you were so motivated, and
35:50
Speaker 6: apparently this person was so motivated. I agreed with you.
35:53
Speaker 6: They weren't burglarizing, they weren't trying to take anything but
35:56
Speaker 6: her life. And it was there. She put it out
35:59
Speaker 6: on Facebook. I'm going to be there, I'm going to
36:01
Speaker 6: be alone, and that's your opportunity.
36:04
Speaker 1: And the person went in ahead of time and was
36:07
Speaker 1: lying in wait. Correct, Alan.
36:09
Speaker 6: They knew the routine, they knew that she would be there,
36:12
Speaker 6: probably at a certain time. They arrived just before four
36:15
Speaker 6: o'clock in the morning. It was about sixteen or seventeen
36:18
Speaker 6: minutes later that Missy walks in and is attacked. And
36:22
Speaker 6: by the way, we don't see the video that they got.
36:24
Speaker 6: The police do have other video of her entering, of
36:27
Speaker 6: the suspect entering, and of other things happening, but we
36:31
Speaker 6: don't see them. We have only seen two minutes of
36:34
Speaker 6: for six blurry security cameras.
36:36
Speaker 1: I wonder why they're still hanging on to it, Allan,
36:40
Speaker 1: I don't.
36:40
Speaker 6: Think that they're even releasing the police report, still saying
36:43
Speaker 6: it's an active investigation. Maybe Dave mac or Joe Scott
36:47
Speaker 6: no different. But I know we were requesting it and
36:50
Speaker 6: they were saying, no, we can't let you have the
36:52
Speaker 6: initial police report. The officer responding to the scene would
36:56
Speaker 6: have filled that out. How do they handle the crime scene?
36:58
Speaker 6: What did they see we have? I've never seen it
37:01
Speaker 6: and I don't think it's ever been released.
37:03
Speaker 1: What was the point of entry? Allan?
37:06
Speaker 6: It was apparently a fourth century and breaking glass four century.
37:12
Speaker 6: I don't know which door it was in, but it
37:15
Speaker 6: was supposedly according to the chief years ago, it was
37:17
Speaker 6: a forced entry.
37:22
Speaker 1: To Dave Matt, what can you tell me about unusual
37:28
Speaker 1: linked in messages Missy got within about three days before
37:33
Speaker 1: her murder.
37:34
Speaker 10: There was a message that arrived less than three days
37:38
Speaker 10: before the murder, and it shocked Missy enough that she
37:42
Speaker 10: shared it with a very close friend. Showed her the
37:44
Speaker 10: message because it was weird and creepy and from a man,
37:49
Speaker 10: or allegedly a man, and Missy didn't know who the
37:52
Speaker 10: person was, but it bothered her enough to show it
37:55
Speaker 10: to the friend. The friend also took least she didn't
37:58
Speaker 10: know who this individual was. So you've got an anonymous
38:01
Speaker 10: or an unknown person sending a creepy message to Missy
38:05
Speaker 10: Beaver's in seventy two hours before she's you.
38:08
Speaker 1: Give you any idea what was in the message, Dave
38:10
Speaker 1: mac No.
38:11
Speaker 6: They have not.
38:13
Speaker 10: Just it has been called creepy and strange. That is
38:17
Speaker 10: all we've been told about it, you know.
38:18
Speaker 1: Alan Duke, I would not put it past the killer
38:22
Speaker 1: to have staged that to make it look as if
38:26
Speaker 1: she had a male stalker to throw interest elsewhere.
38:32
Speaker 6: Social media messaging and misinformation is the area I've worked
38:36
Speaker 6: in for the last ten years, as you know, at
38:38
Speaker 6: lead Stories, and I can tell you it's very easy
38:41
Speaker 6: to deceive somebody with a post on LinkedIn or Facebook
38:44
Speaker 6: or anywhere, because they don't really know who you are.
38:47
Speaker 6: You could be in a different country, you could be
38:49
Speaker 6: somebody completely different, and it would be a good way
38:53
Speaker 6: of setting something up if someone had the forethought and
38:56
Speaker 6: the motivation to do that.
38:58
Speaker 1: I have no doubt this was planned in advance.
39:01
Speaker 10: Missy Beaver's death investigation now includes a vehicle of interest
39:05
Speaker 10: that police say is captured on surveillance cameras at a
39:08
Speaker 10: nearby business just before the murder. It's a twenty ten
39:11
Speaker 10: to twenty twelve niss On Ultimus silver or light color
39:13
Speaker 10: with a no oval sticker on its bumper. Police also
39:16
Speaker 10: rule out Missy Beaver's husband, Brandon, as he is on
39:18
Speaker 10: an annual fishing trip at the time of the murder,
39:20
Speaker 10: but Brandon's father, Missy Beaver's father in law, Randy, might
39:24
Speaker 10: have some explaining to do a police search. One that
39:27
Speaker 10: says four days after the murder, Randy Beavers took bloody
39:30
Speaker 10: shirts to the Dry Clean supercenter of mid Lothian.
39:33
Speaker 1: Allan, that was a dead end. Explain, Yeah, it.
39:36
Speaker 6: Was an animal's blood, I think a dog blood. There
39:40
Speaker 6: were no no signs of human blood on that laundry,
39:44
Speaker 6: so that was a dead end. It did raise suspicion
39:48
Speaker 6: about the father in law, but didn't go anywhere.
39:51
Speaker 1: The point of entry was on the side door on
39:55
Speaker 1: the north southwest side. A pride bar was used to
39:58
Speaker 1: smash a glass pain and all this went down about
40:03
Speaker 1: thirty minutes before Missy arrived. I'm convinced Alan Dick that
40:10
Speaker 1: the knew, of course Missy would be there, knew what
40:13
Speaker 1: time she would be there and knew that the husband
40:18
Speaker 1: was out of town on an annual fishing trip. In
40:21
Speaker 1: a community that's small, you know when your neighbor is
40:25
Speaker 1: going on a fishing trip.
40:27
Speaker 6: Yeah, and probably knew what door not to smash so
40:32
Speaker 6: that it wouldn't raise her suspicion as she entered Derek,
40:34
Speaker 6: Now that I think of it, she probably went through
40:37
Speaker 6: a regular door that she would regularly go through, and
40:40
Speaker 6: this person apparently knew that and smash the window in
40:43
Speaker 6: the other door.
40:43
Speaker 1: And the suspect enters at three point fifty am. Missy
40:48
Speaker 1: walks in at four eighteen am eighteen minutes later. Quite
40:53
Speaker 1: the coincidence. Alan, You and I both agree, there is
40:56
Speaker 1: no coincidence. In criminal law, I.
40:58
Speaker 6: Agree, there's no no question in my mind, this was
41:01
Speaker 6: not a burglary. This was a planned killing. If it's
41:04
Speaker 6: a burglar, why would a burglar invest in this fake
41:07
Speaker 6: swat gear? Police get up and put it on and
41:10
Speaker 6: go in. Why would they do that just for a burglary?
41:14
Speaker 6: No burglar. Burglars, by the way, are about the stupidest
41:17
Speaker 6: people I know. I met a few of them, put
41:19
Speaker 6: some in jail. And this was not a burglar.
41:27
Speaker 1: Alan, Duke joining US editor in chief lead Stories dot com.
41:31
Speaker 1: Where does the investigation stand now, Well.
41:36
Speaker 6: They've switched investigators off and on. They say they're working
41:39
Speaker 6: with the state police. The FBI has a role in it.
41:42
Speaker 6: But as Joe Scott mentioned earlier, let's hope that they're
41:45
Speaker 6: resubmitting the DNA evidence if there is any for reanalysis
41:50
Speaker 6: with the new forensics. On many cold cases, it's just
41:54
Speaker 6: a matter, I guess, of waiting for technology to give
41:56
Speaker 6: you a clue to help you. You know, you've You've
41:58
Speaker 6: done many many of the show those where killers were
42:01
Speaker 6: caught because of DNA advancements or other technology, and I
42:05
Speaker 6: think really AI video technology could play a role in this.
42:09
Speaker 6: So I guess we just got to sit on our
42:11
Speaker 6: hands while police do something. Un Let's hope they're doing it.
42:14
Speaker 1: Alan, Did you ever believe that we would be trying
42:17
Speaker 1: to solve Missy Beaver's murder ten years later?
42:21
Speaker 6: No, No, I thought that the attention to it that
42:25
Speaker 6: you gave to it, that others and other news agencies
42:29
Speaker 6: gave to it would put pressure on the police to
42:32
Speaker 6: open up. And it's amazing now how the crimes are
42:36
Speaker 6: solved because detectives do that. They let information out there
42:42
Speaker 6: so we can crowdsource it. I know some people turn
42:44
Speaker 6: their nose up at doing that, and some law enforcement,
42:47
Speaker 6: but that's I think is what's needed. If you go
42:49
Speaker 6: in line search Missy Beaver's you'll see a lot of
42:52
Speaker 6: people and Reddit and elsewhere are talking about it. Let's
42:55
Speaker 6: do more and let's solve this. You know, some of
42:59
Speaker 6: the big murders over time have been solved because somebody
43:03
Speaker 6: actually said, hey, I'm free, I'm going to write a
43:05
Speaker 6: book about it. And I doubt that we'll see a
43:07
Speaker 6: book written about this, but maybe there's going to be
43:11
Speaker 6: a confession somewhere along the line. Somebody on their deathbed
43:15
Speaker 6: will make a confession.
43:16
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I hope you don't have to
43:18
Speaker 1: wait for someone else to die before the case is solved. Guys,
43:22
