of bullying is police initially

2:51

believed that she was a runaway that

2:54

is witnesses came forward she

2:56

appeared to have a stalker who lured

2:59

her from her home on

3:00

very computer where she said

3:02

every night to way

3:05

this is the story of

3:08

tricia archery

3:20

tricia and arteries went

3:22

by thresher was born on december

3:24

twelve that nineteen eighty four to

3:26

gillian and really are tree in

3:28

millville utah she

3:31

was the youngest of five children so when

3:33

she was born she joined

3:34

the older brothers bra

3:35

an arab and sisters

3:38

heather and bria dad

3:40

roy was born in texas and he

3:42

group in california where she met the

3:44

love of his life joanne roy

3:47

was raised religious but after

3:50

graduating high school he can they

3:52

to the church of jesus christ the latter

3:54

day saints and when joanne was

3:56

twenty one and roy was twenty three

3:58

they were married and moved the state of utah

4:01

to be closer to the head quarters of

4:03

their church which was in salt lake city dad

4:07

roy was very active in his local

4:09

congregation up he taught sunday school

4:11

and even served as a counsellor to the bishop

4:14

the was a builder by trade but stopped working

4:16

after his cancer diagnosis and ninety

4:19

ninety six when tricia would have been

4:21

just run

4:21

twelve years old

4:23

and again tricia and her siblings

4:25

were born in millville utah which

4:27

is about eighty miles or just one hundred

4:29

and twenty kilometers north of salt

4:31

lake city and near the border of utah

4:33

and idaho that eventually

4:35

the artery family relocated to

4:37

hiram utah just eight minutes

4:40

down the road from millville and still

4:42

situated in county so not

4:44

far at all

4:46

there was a bright creed iv and

4:48

free spirited teenager known for her bright

4:51

red hair she loved playing in the

4:53

rain and singing and she dreamed of

4:55

attending the juilliard school of music one

4:57

day

4:58

she performed in the cash county children's

5:00

choir she played guitar and

5:02

belong to the arts program at are high school

5:05

which was self cast school where

5:07

in the year two thousand she had just

5:09

finished up her freshman year so

5:12

far she had only traveled to arizona

5:15

california in montana but she

5:17

dreamed of moving out of utah and just

5:19

kind of traveling the world

5:21

the alien set of her daughter quote she

5:23

was a confidante opinionated and powerful

5:26

young woman she didn't take gulf

5:28

of any one

5:29

you spoke up passionately on crimes against

5:32

women and she didn't frighten easily

5:35

this is said that she wanted to change the world

5:38

so just fifteen years old at tricia

5:40

seem like such a bright and mature

5:42

person yard seem like she really understood

5:45

the world

5:46

better than most fifteen year old right

5:49

above all so more than guitar

5:51

singing and oliver other artistic interests

5:54

tricia loved to right wrote

5:57

her you that she wrote short stories

5:59

songs and poetry and would

6:01

spend hours typing furiously

6:03

on the family computer sounds a lot

6:05

like daphne the next

6:07

so as so as in high school she had

6:09

even already begun working on her first novel

6:12

yeah i love that about her so much because i felt

6:14

like i i know i'm acted with and

6:17

she just seems so awesome and i think that's

6:19

so cool the as a freshman she's already

6:22

like so much sure and knows

6:24

what she wants to do and is working towards

6:26

that goal you know i have just admire that

6:28

a lot and lily but with as much

6:31

as she had to offer she still had trouble

6:33

making connections with people her own age

6:35

and she really struggled to make friends

6:38

the had a few friends but her mom explained that tricia

6:41

felt that she lacked a true best friend

6:43

like her peers had

6:44

and that this meter feel like she was missing out

6:47

on something the typical teenager

6:49

she was eager to be like

6:51

often seeking external validation and

6:53

not getting it the only unexplained

6:55

later that adolescence had been really hard

6:58

for her daughter

6:59

he was frequently ostracized and

7:01

teased at school and all she wanted

7:03

was to be liked by her peers and

7:05

a have that one friend who would have her back

7:07

no matter what

7:08

this is nancy so sad because she

7:10

seems like she had so much to offer as a friend

7:13

and really had a lot going for her and she

7:15

had this huge genuine smile

7:17

and she looked so cool so i

7:19

don't understand why people were so cruel

7:21

to her like fuck holy yeah absolutely

7:24

and this this happens i

7:26

feel like to a lot of teams and

7:28

then they kind of grow into themselves after

7:30

high school like i know a lot of people who

7:32

you know didn't have a lot of friends in high school who

7:34

went on to become you know very great people

7:37

great friends and have great careers

7:39

so

7:40

the sad because at that age obviously

7:42

you're you're coming into your owning your self

7:44

conscious of course because you're

7:46

around all these new people and you're going

7:49

through puberty and you're growing and

7:51

figuring out who you are do not have anybody

7:53

to kind of share that with

7:55

it was really

7:55

ruff could not only did she not have any close friends

7:57

she did have some friends that not a

8:00

best friend like you're saying but she was bullied

8:02

and for what yeah you know and

8:04

it seems that she spent a lot of her time doing

8:07

the creative things that she liked to do which was

8:10

you know eventually probably going to put our the right

8:12

exactly so on the morning

8:14

of saturday june twenty fourth two

8:16

thousand around six am

8:19

tricia mom went into a room to check on

8:21

her fifteen year old tricia

8:23

was usually a light sleeper especially during

8:25

summer break when she was able to because

8:27

she was prone to staying up all hours

8:29

of the night the computer just typing away

8:31

her stories the news particular

8:34

morning for bed was made and

8:36

nothing in her room was out of place

8:38

except tricia was nowhere to be

8:41

found mister

8:43

brie and had been the last to see her

8:45

and said that when she had gone to bed at two

8:47

am when bran had gone to bed two

8:50

four hours before her mom when

8:52

into trish his room tricia was still

8:54

up and on the family computer completely

8:58

unsure of where her daughter could have gone

9:01

joanna frantically called around

9:03

to some friends of treasures and key she'd

9:05

gone over to one of their houses early that

9:07

morning no one had seen her and

9:10

that's a pretty it i mean six am on

9:12

a summer saturday is like not

9:14

the time

9:15

you would expect somebody to go visit their friend

9:17

yeah it doesn't seem normal at all

9:19

but obviously her mom is really trying to

9:21

figure out where she could go on this was one thing that

9:23

came to her mind for all i know she went there

9:25

early why i don't know but i hope she's with

9:27

a friend

9:28

none of them had seen her so that is

9:31

very alarming

9:32

with that joanne and

9:34

brianna quickly swept the

9:36

neighborhood but when they still turned

9:39

up no sign of tricia her

9:41

mother joanne called the police and reported

9:43

her missing at around six thirty

9:45

am no no it seems like they did a quick

9:48

ah just sweep of like the local

9:50

places in their neighborhoods because they weren't

9:52

got they were gone for very long but i heard

9:54

on minutes yeah exactly so from the

9:57

very beginning even thirty minutes into

9:59

looking for her something

10:00

the very wrong here

10:03

when police came and assess the situation

10:05

it didn't seem to be taking it seriously

10:08

yet and told julian and roy that

10:10

they suspected that fifteen year old tricia

10:12

had left voluntarily the

10:15

hundred zeroed in on her troubles with bullies

10:17

at school painting tricia as your

10:20

typical troubled teenage runaway joanne

10:22

protested that she hadn't brought

10:25

anything with her but the clothes on her back

10:27

including cash that was left in her bedroom

10:30

so she had nothing with her un

10:33

also notice that tricia had warned the clothes

10:35

that she'd been wearing all day at the

10:37

day before which included a bra

10:39

that she only war while sleeping or just

10:41

kinda hanging out at the house and a pair

10:43

of old tennis shoes that she didn't like

10:46

to didn't seem like she would have left in

10:48

those pieces of clothing

10:50

it does not like going out attire

10:52

the and also julien said that

10:54

running was are running away was

10:57

completely unlike her daughter i guess

10:59

she was seeing a friend or someone she knew she

11:01

would have probably changed to look more presentable

11:03

and her mom would have known that you're going on the

11:07

storm this is joanne thought perhaps

11:09

her daughter had taken like a late night

11:11

walked by herself and potentially

11:14

gotten snatch somewhere

11:15

long her route

11:17

she did she knew her daughter and

11:19

that it was not in her character to run

11:21

off like this but police

11:23

still believing there was a simple explanation

11:25

for this half heartedly interviewed

11:27

her friends and family just poking

11:30

for leads but also reportedly

11:32

told the family that ninety five

11:34

per cent of runaways contact

11:36

their family within the first three months

11:38

of leaving and that the artery

11:40

it should just wait patiently so

11:43

it seems like they're just like you know she's

11:45

she's gonna come backs an owner

11:47

santa please get these kind of calls often

11:49

and that the high majority and of not

11:52

being dangerous situations by the

11:54

tell the parents of a fifty year old girl that they

11:56

just need to be patient when they know

11:58

their daughter wouldn't just run off

11:59

it

12:00

rude yeah it's it's very disrespectful

12:02

my opinion the pretty had

12:04

been telling her family recently that she'd

12:06

started working on a new story so

12:09

when police were little help joanne turned

12:11

to this for answers your

12:13

when recalls that sometimes her daughter stories

12:16

contained liaisons with much older

12:18

men though she scoured curses

12:20

most recent piece for clues that

12:22

could have led to her whereabouts but

12:24

when she did she found that it wasn't

12:27

a story at all just scattered

12:29

thoughts typed out on a page the

12:31

what it has she been doing on the computer for all

12:33

those hours

12:35

investigators finally brought in an expert

12:38

john w georgie who did

12:40

some digging on the families computer's hard drive

12:43

unbeknownst to her family tricia

12:45

had three separate email accounts

12:48

and spent an excessive amount of time in

12:50

chat rooms more than she spent

12:52

writing stories or poetry then

12:55

it seemed as if this was like whoa refuge

12:57

from the students in peers who teased her at

12:59

school and especially for the sign this

13:01

does seem very normal did you ever go

13:02

the chat rooms in high school

13:05

no because i didn't

13:07

get a computer and cell i was out of

13:09

high ally yeah sorry if that is so we are

13:11

i actually did do this the when i was a

13:13

maybe in middle school or something probably like two

13:15

thousand and five or two thousand and six or something like that

13:18

idea to do this sometimes

13:20

just kind of for fun and

13:21

like you're a teenager he just again who can i talk

13:23

to talk to a stranger and right especially

13:25

in it's like a new thing like yeah you

13:27

know what i mean illiquid out rooms were fairly new at

13:30

know

13:30

and and was like my space coming

13:32

onto the scene and as the years after trisha

13:35

you'd you just start talking to people like that

13:37

kind of exciting your you have this

13:39

way to connect with people that you don't know when

13:41

you can i want to explore that so especially

13:43

considering she didn't have this core

13:45

group of friends it makes sense that

13:47

she's trying to china just chat with people

13:50

her family didn't know she was doing this and they thought

13:53

that she was just writing all the time when

13:55

in reality she was writing but she was also chatting

13:57

with soldiers oman

13:59

though

14:00

something very different about that particular

14:03

night in june

14:04

right rear yeah i'm on the morning of trish his

14:06

disappearance

14:08

the internet history cashes

14:10

in any store data on the arteries home

14:12

computer for the last few hours

14:14

had been deleted

14:15

to take a seat trying to cover

14:17

up what she was doing or what why

14:19

did why did that happen

14:21

yourself

14:22

though john claimed that this was not something

14:24

that tricia given her level of experience

14:26

with technologies would have known to

14:28

do herself the guess that

14:30

someone had taught her how to do this in order to

14:33

cover their tracks

14:34

the with that information the arteries

14:37

were now convinced that this was a case of

14:39

abduction

14:40

tricia had met up with someone from a chat room

14:43

and they didn't have good intentions like

14:45

she may have believe his

14:48

mom said in an interview that she thought for

14:50

she could easily be seduced into thinking

14:52

that someone wanted and needed her and

14:54

that she was an easy target for a predator

14:57

when questioned a few locals claimed

15:00

to have an eyewitness accounts the of tricia

15:02

last public sightings

15:05

the this is really important into the beginning

15:07

of the investigation because of you

15:09

neighbors had reported some suspicious

15:11

activity even in the weeks leading

15:13

up to trust his disappearance one

15:16

neighbor saw tricia get out of a red

15:19

car on a weekday afternoon

15:21

and then sneak into her family's house

15:23

as issue

15:24

didn't wanna be seen

15:26

according to another neighbor a

15:28

similar read a compact

15:30

economy car actually pulled

15:32

up to the arteries house on the

15:34

very morning that for said

15:36

disappear at around

15:38

four am on the morning of june twenty

15:40

four this neighbor claims

15:42

that he heard a car drive up on

15:45

their quiet street and that when

15:47

he looked out to observe what was going on

15:49

he saw a young man get out the

15:52

thing and looking nervous the

15:55

for long this man was joined

15:57

by a young woman and a gone

15:59

into the

15:59

our and drove off

16:02

the assume that it was your typical

16:04

teenager a sneak it out and he didn't think

16:06

much of it

16:08

the next the count however was more

16:10

alarming

16:13

few hours later around six am

16:15

the same time gillian begin looking for

16:17

her daughter a local convenience

16:19

store employee named blended trip

16:21

reported another sighting of tricia

16:24

in the store in which she worked he's

16:27

a treasure seem to apprehensive and nervous

16:30

that she was wandering around the store anxiously

16:32

for twenty minutes that she ultimately

16:34

left without buying anything the

16:37

lender recalls that tricia with intermittently

16:40

bobbing her head and standing on or tippy

16:42

toes just looking over the store shelves

16:44

toward the outside the

16:46

as tricia as he needed help

16:48

patricia responded that she did not

16:52

linda said that she had seen tricia around the

16:54

neighborhood before and that there was no

16:56

doubt in her mind that it was tricia

16:59

in her store that morning

17:01

so concerned that please seem to lack

17:03

the understanding of the gravity of the situation

17:06

the arteries hired a private investigator to

17:08

work alongside law enforcement

17:11

struggling under the weight of roy's chemotherapy

17:13

and healthcare the arteries decided

17:15

to sell their home to pay for

17:17

this detective

17:18

which know families who have to do

17:20

and this is so sad considering the only

17:22

reason they were hiring a p i in the first place

17:25

is because the police didn't have their

17:27

hearts in the case as they should have

17:30

and to serve quick shout out to private

17:32

investigations for the missing which is an amazing

17:35

non profit founded by bruce maitland

17:37

brianna maitland dad that provides

17:39

p i services for free for

17:41

families are in this very position so

17:44

they really could have the arteries really could have

17:46

benefited from something like this

17:48

yeah i really don't understand why the police were not

17:50

helping more but p i for the missing

17:52

is seriously such an amazing organization

17:55

so we really love those guys the

17:58

family and friends from there

17:59

the came over to prep the house to be ready to

18:02

sell and they also circulated

18:04

missing posters boasting a seven

18:06

thousand dollar reward offered by

18:08

the carol sunday carrington memorial

18:11

reward foundation based

18:13

in california this non profit was

18:15

established to provide families and law

18:17

enforcement with answers through reward

18:19

grant which is also amazing

18:22

yeah though two months after truces

18:24

disappearance a tip came in from

18:26

someone who had seen this missing

18:28

poster the man and bountiful

18:31

utah a suburb of salt lake city

18:33

about an hour's drive south from millville

18:36

the he'd seen tricia with

18:38

her potential abductors

18:40

a man named jerry start up that's

18:43

actually his last name was shopping

18:45

in his local grocery store and saw

18:47

what he described as a young lady

18:49

accompanied by another lady and

18:51

a man no he's

18:53

a did the young ladies eyes were partially closed

18:56

and the her face seemed puffy as

18:58

if she had been crying the

19:01

man with them matched the description of the

19:03

man that trish his neighbor had seen entering

19:05

the red car with her on the morning

19:07

that she disappeared the juri

19:10

also said that he was disturbed by

19:12

how the were treating her that

19:14

she was never able to leave their site

19:17

that it seemed as if she was being drugged

19:19

beaten and held against her will

19:22

eerie also said that he was a hundred percent

19:24

confident that it was tricia that

19:26

he saw in the store that day

19:29

the private investigator attempted

19:31

to check details that the police had missed

19:34

heather trust his sister told

19:36

this investigator that before her disappearance

19:39

russia had told her that she was afraid

19:41

of a man who called himself sam

19:45

tricia had been calling her mom almost

19:47

every day after school for a ride home

19:50

so that she did not have to run into

19:52

this sam guy

19:54

the p i began to chase down leads with

19:56

this in mind the artery family

19:59

20:08

succumbed to cancer without ever

20:10

20:14

because her family really did believe that that

20:17

is what happened on like the police

20:19

and with police still set

20:21

on the theory that tricia ran away they

20:23

were convinced that she would return

20:25

for her father's funeral and so they

20:27

posted up outside the there waiting

20:29

for her

20:31

the when there was no sign of trisha they

20:33

finally believed what

20:35

the artery family had known all along

22:29

ten months after

22:33

weeks later her jawbone

22:35

was

22:35

around i get that hindsight's

22:37

twenty twenty the like this is your job in

22:39

there is no time to waste in situations

22:42

like this it feels like that's what they

22:43

yeah it definitely feels like

22:46

there was more that could have been done and

22:48

it was

22:49

and obviously the the family did have a p

22:51

i that was working towards something

22:54

that he hadn't found anything the eaters

22:56

i understand that it doesn't mean

22:58

that they would have found her alive but

23:01

you can at least try it out

23:03

so here's exactly what happened i

23:06

keep came in that at the time of trish

23:08

his disappearance an employee

23:11

at the u s de a predator research

23:13

facility had been seen digging

23:16

holes on the property this

23:19

wildlife research center focused on behaviors

23:21

of wildlife predators such as coyote

23:24

is bears and wolves and it's

23:26

located on a hundred and sixty five

23:28

acres of open space and

23:30

hiking trails right in between a millville

23:33

and hiram utah just eight

23:35

miles from for says health this

23:38

man had actually been only cass county

23:40

police his radar for over six

23:43

months and on the p eyes for

23:45

even longer her sister

23:48

heather said that the private investigator

23:50

the ox retired actually had

23:52

him pinned as trusses killer within

23:54

two and a half months of starting

23:56

his own investigation

23:58

the the suspect had been

23:59

using the facilities backhoe which

24:02

if you guys don't know it's basically like a tractor

24:04

that can dig very large holes this

24:07

and we have reportedly been using the equipment

24:10

which was company property to dig

24:12

on a company property without

24:14

permission

24:16

in a large field on the campus of

24:18

the facility he was repeatedly

24:20

digging up

24:21

and in filling seeming the useless

24:23

whole obviously this looks very

24:26

weird to the company they're like okay why

24:28

are the aisle and what are you doing out there using

24:30

our equipment to just dig holes though

24:33

on a hunch from the private investigator and

24:35

the police seven cadaver dogs

24:37

were brought in to sorts the field all

24:40

seven dogs indicated to

24:42

the same area it

24:45

was a large area with a lot of dirt and

24:47

growth to displace so investigators

24:49

were skeptical that they would find anything

24:52

but begin to one earth anywhere that

24:54

they suspected the original holes had been

24:56

dug ten feet

24:59

they stumbled upon what looked like

25:01

a piece of bone

25:03

upon further inspection

25:05

of this area these sound

25:07

hundreds more fragments of

25:10

bones including the rest

25:12

of that jawbone

25:13

they also found a pair of tennis

25:15

shoes abroad and

25:17

the rift to elastic waistband of

25:20

the underwear that tricia had been wearing

25:22

that night

25:23

her clothing and some of the bones appeared

25:26

as if they had been burned

25:28

and after sending the samples off to a forensic

25:30

anthropologists and a medical examiner

25:32

for testing it was confirmed

25:34

that the bone was human

25:36

the and it that it was trisha

25:39

so who had been digging trenches

25:41

on company property

25:43

this guy's name up with cody

25:45

it lynette nielsen a twenty

25:47

year old man who had been working as a janitor

25:50

at the predator research facility

25:52

at that of trust his disappearance

25:55

so this guy doesn't even like do anything else

25:57

on the property used as a janitor right so mad

25:59

how weird it is that a janitor

26:02

is digging holes on

26:04

property with company equipment

26:06

yeah that's not even his job at

26:08

all so they're like dude why cody

26:11

no longer work there when he was questioned about

26:13

trish his disappearance because he was serving jail

26:16

time for multiple other offenses

26:18

yeah because he is a piece of shit

26:20

yes and it's safe to say that cody

26:23

has been to

26:23

old from the get go so

26:24

he was married from nineteen ninety two

26:27

to ninety ninety five

26:28

so when he was about twenty

26:30

two twenty five years old

26:31

and he had two children with

26:33

his first wife

26:35

after getting a divorce he married again

26:37

and ninety ninety seven so two years later

26:40

and had

26:40

more children

26:42

the second wife filed for divorce

26:44

in november of two thousand just

26:46

five months after pressure

26:48

disappeared

26:49

after cody had threatened her with a gun

26:52

though they were still married at winter so

26:55

disappeared

26:56

and if is it please

26:58

remember that because we're also gonna

27:00

mention another incident that happened

27:02

during the time he was mary that is really disgusting

27:05

and

27:06

that wouldn't will talk about that

27:08

when cody the wife called the

27:10

police on him for domestic violence

27:12

cody went into this tail spin

27:15

and he yelled at police quote i'm

27:17

not fucking going to jail you'll have to take

27:19

me and dead

27:20

too bad you did go to jail are you fucking idiot

27:22

yeah so he said this while

27:24

he was holding a knife to his own brody

27:27

the after talking him down at police

27:29

successfully arrested cody and charged

27:32

him with possession of a deadly weapon with

27:34

intent to assault before landing

27:36

the behavior unit of the local regional

27:39

hospital

27:40

they did put him in a a mental facility

27:42

if from that on

27:45

i know like to hold himself healthy

27:47

the yeah or like i don't know if it was

27:48

the potential suicide attempt or whatever

27:51

by it he you know the police were they

27:53

are because he threatened his wife with a gun

27:55

so this guy's like

27:56

kind of of off his rocker here

27:59

no this

27:59

the father of four children under eight

28:02

years old had actually been kind to more

28:04

than forty cases in

28:06

his when to a short years including

28:09

but not limited to racing

28:11

theft driving with a suspended

28:13

license perjury and

28:15

us

28:15

yeah we're also gonna talk about

28:18

more assaults yes we will

28:20

the shortly after trish his remains were discovered

28:23

a friend of truces team for in

28:25

claimed to have been raped by cody

28:28

just one month before

28:30

28:33

starting these young women and trying to rape

28:35

28:41

he's twenty years old preying on

28:43

t

28:44

28:46

though this friend claimed that cody

28:48

of introducing himself as

28:50

the am sam

28:51

and ruled by the girls on their walk

28:53

home from school one day and a green

28:56

pickup truck

28:57

stop to chat with them how gross

28:59

carry on

29:00

yeah he's just trying to pick amount your children

29:02

so he asked them what they like to do

29:04

for fun and if they ever liked to

29:07

go out and drink or parties like

29:09

i'm they can't drink their

29:11

fifteen yeah more on the yeah ah

29:13

gotta he disguise so much

29:15

that is me to he also offered

29:17

to give them ride home should the ever

29:19

need them no

29:22

according to this friend see i'm

29:24

had given tricia his pager number

29:27

which she had written down in a binder one

29:30

afternoon for says friend had taken him up

29:32

on his offer to give her a ride home from school

29:34

probably thinking that he was just being a nice guy

29:36

trying to make their lives easier

29:39

with a couple of with a quick ride home is

29:41

or fifteen like they don't have you know probably

29:43

really a

29:43

stand dire an older guy

29:45

is creepy it's not cool to have older

29:47

guy driving home it's actually very predatory

29:50

yes

29:50

instead he took her to the predator

29:53

research facility well you

29:56

know on brand your own brand ironic

29:59

where he will

29:59

the and works as his body was found and

30:02

then he raped this friend at

30:04

the facility which is so sad because he

30:06

or she is thinking he's gonna take her home

30:08

and

30:09

he should have been able to just go home he's

30:11

and he's a true predator early

30:13

so at the end of their freshman year

30:15

so very shortly before her disappearance

30:18

this friend had written interest

30:20

as yearbook the out of trouble

30:23

stay away from san

30:26

the work who are regarding whoever

30:29

tricia was talking to in the chat rooms

30:31

like we talked about earlier

30:33

it will likely you notice her having

30:35

fun chatting with people and not her trying

30:37

to meet up with someone because cody

30:39

did not come from a chat room so

30:41

although that lead seemed promising initially

30:44

it didn't go anywhere and it seem like this

30:46

guy the creeper who is driving by the school

30:48

or and kind of caught their attention as yeah

30:51

and then he

30:52

you know abducted tricia because it clearly

30:54

has his eyes honor yeah happened to be his

30:56

pager number and not the chat rooms

30:59

right

31:00

the between late may in

31:02

early june of two thousand and

31:04

remember tricia disappeared on june twenty

31:06

fourth two thousand

31:07

co worker of cody nielsen's named

31:09

william pitt noticed cody

31:12

digging a massive a whole lot

31:14

with the back oh so this was kind of

31:16

the first sighting of him starting the

31:19

dig

31:20

work yeah the eyewitness the first eyewitness

31:22

this is before pressure went missing

31:24

so when william question cody about

31:27

it again a janitor cody

31:29

had said that he wanted to see how deep

31:31

of a pay the he could dig with the equipment

31:33

little while real reason just i

31:36

want to dig a big ass hole for know

31:38

really i like i'm just dicking around for

31:40

yeah

31:42

william directed him to fill it in because

31:44

it pose a hazard for locals and employees

31:47

now nobody suppose we doing a plea

31:49

cover it up and carry on media please go

31:51

grab your mob and go clean the fucking holes

31:54

school

31:55

for the next few weeks coworkers

31:57

observed him continuing to fun

31:59

the over this area where he would like

32:02

pile debris nearby

32:04

hovering in uncovering the whole and

32:06

at one point even setting a pile

32:08

of what looks like trash ablaze

32:10

before bearing it so all the his coworkers

32:13

are seeing this happen and it's looking

32:15

really weird to them

32:16

when questioned by police cody admitted

32:19

to knowing tricia and also

32:21

to occasionally going by the nickname

32:23

sam

32:24

and you know i just want to point this out

32:26

for anybody who has forgotten

32:28

russia was allegedly afraid of a guy named sam

32:31

and had told her sister this before she disappeared

32:33

and cody is sam

32:36

though he wouldn't admit to killing tricia

32:38

but he didn't deny it either in

32:41

may of two thousand and one cody

32:43

was formally charged with capital

32:45

murder

32:46

the aggravated kidnapping and at

32:48

the desecration of a human body

32:50

on behalf of fifteen year old tricia

32:53

archery it as well as the rape

32:55

of her teenage friend

32:57

when it was time to enter a plea he actually

32:59

pled guilty hoping to avoid

33:02

the death penalty

33:03

and when he learned capital punishment could still be

33:06

on the table he actually withdrew his please

33:09

he admitted to killing tricia but swore

33:12

that her death was an accent

33:14

yeah right yeah

33:16

at his trial for women

33:18

testified that he'd rape them including

33:21

the

33:21

in a trend of treasures

33:23

you have them were teenagers just sixteen

33:26

and seventeen years old at this time

33:28

the other had been a local college

33:30

student at the time of the attack their

33:32

sorry of the attack or who had reported

33:34

it to campus police but was told that

33:36

there was not enough evidence to pursue

33:38

a conviction

33:40

when he

33:41

when it came about that he killed

33:42

that tricia these other women were able to

33:44

finally say that man raped me in

33:46

and i want

33:47

to be charged for it but that's so sucky

33:49

of campus police to find out like hey

33:51

it's like yeah you may know man

33:54

i is like too bad there's not enough like

33:56

we can't do anything for you yeah it's it's so

33:58

horrible

33:59

though

33:59

the curators the alleged that he used

34:02

ten or more instruments

34:04

on for says lifeless body including

34:06

an axe a nice and

34:08

tool to scrape the tissue from her

34:10

bones oh i know

34:13

the then buried her dug

34:15

her back up

34:17

around her and her belongings and

34:19

buried her again so this was all

34:21

these times that these coworkers or seen him

34:23

digging and then put in the back

34:26

in digging like it was him a hiding

34:28

trust his body

34:29

prosecution open their statement by

34:31

saying you can't

34:33

sugar coat evil true

34:35

that

34:36

the other witnesses testified that

34:38

he had stocks tricia prior to

34:40

her disappearance while

34:42

with his son at trial cody

34:45

his father suffered cardiac event

34:47

and was rushed to the hospital cody

34:50

was so emotional that he had to leave

34:52

the courtroom

34:53

yeah what about tricia your victim

34:55

who wasn't there with her family for her father's

34:57

funeral but you you get to crying

34:59

court because your dad had a cardiac event

35:01

yeah

35:02

this is so messed up so for most

35:04

of the trial he kept his head down sometimes

35:07

resting it on the table and crying

35:09

silently the sentencing

35:11

dragged on with the judge and jury

35:14

alike anguishing about whether or not

35:16

to issue the death penalty now

35:18

trish his brother arum took the

35:20

stand and explain how deeply code

35:22

his actions had affected his family

35:26

the ten year old daughter trusses nice

35:28

now thought that it was normal for children

35:30

to be abducted and killed and that

35:32

she started praying during families are

35:34

prayer circles to quote not

35:36

be afraid anymore that's how much that

35:39

that this therefore affected

35:41

their entire family will be

35:43

the by the time this is happening are i'm

35:45

sorry when nip patricia went missing

35:48

she was about six or seven years old

35:50

sushi nutrition yeah

35:52

he knew her and

35:54

though arum also pointed to cody

35:56

and said quotes that man over

35:58

there that hi i'm afraid

36:01

that's why you're afraid in

36:03

two thousand and three still in the midst of the trial

36:06

joey and on three it was diagnosed

36:08

with colon cancer but continued

36:11

to delay radiation and chemotherapy

36:13

treatments to be present for the trial

36:15

of her daughter's killer this poor

36:18

i am know i i'd so sad

36:20

the prosecutor said that she wanted to maintain

36:23

her composure and alertness for the trial

36:26

finally in january of

36:28

two thousand four cody

36:30

was convicted of truces murder and

36:32

given a life sentence without

36:35

the possibility of parole he

36:37

was tried again in two thousand and thirteen

36:39

but his conviction was upheld

36:41

i just wonder how up for abduction

36:43

even happened because he never

36:45

explained what he did because

36:48

we have to think about the witness sightings if before

36:50

her disappearance a neighbor had seen

36:52

her get into a red car with a young

36:54

man that looked like cody

36:57

does that mean that maybe she had hung out with him

36:59

before and didn't think he was a bad guy after

37:01

all

37:02

the you know what i mean

37:03

it seems that he was taking the opportunity

37:06

you get closer to teenage

37:08

girls in any way that he could so it's

37:10

possible that he said on you

37:13

know the fact that tricia didn't have very

37:15

many friends and just basically

37:17

try to post or into

37:20

some sort of relationship with him beat whether

37:22

it be a friendship or otherwise

37:23

yeah i mean that would make sense i just wonder because

37:26

she had told her sister she was afraid of this guy

37:28

named sam and because of what happened to her own

37:30

friend

37:31

i wonder if

37:32

the date of doctor from her house that

37:34

morning or if she willingly had gone with

37:36

him not knowing how bad

37:38

of a guy he really was and then when

37:40

she realized it was too late yeah because

37:43

this this was never really

37:44

the answer to everybody can have their theories by

37:47

one point she was in her bedroom and

37:49

and she was on the family computer to that

37:52

night and then

37:52

the gone within hours a day i kind

37:54

of forgot about that detail where she had told

37:57

her sister like hey i'm out of this guy named

37:59

sam and it's it already is

38:01

they that maybe she said that in and she changed her mind

38:03

because i is still a teenager

38:05

you know so

38:06

the movie he might have been able

38:08

to like you said kind of manipulator in her

38:10

nebulae her absolutely yeah

38:12

on january twelve two thousand and

38:14

ten joanna also succumb

38:17

to her cancer about nine years

38:19

after her husband roy had and

38:21

tricia would have been just twenty five years old at this

38:24

time like her daughter and

38:26

her husband before her she was severe

38:28

we mourned by her community

38:30

these remembered as an asset a mother

38:33

and friend to everyone who knew her after

38:36

traces guess she volunteered with law enforcement

38:38

agencies and to our local child

38:41

and family support center

38:43

she and her kids also started volunteering

38:45

together to council other victims with

38:47

missing and exploited children

38:49

a coworker at the nonprofits

38:51

julian quote nothing

38:53

short of amazing she's just absolutely

38:56

a miracle worker so sadly

38:58

the artery family really seem to have been dealt

39:00

a shorthand but joanne at never

39:03

let it dampen their spirits

39:05

the for her passing she had said quotes

39:07

39:10
