Westminster, Colorado. Feb 14, 1999. When Rich Lesmeister got the call that his friend, Paul Skiba, was missing, he asked right away if there was anything he could do to help. The call was from Paul’s on-off girlfriend, Teresa Donovan. It wasn’t just Paul that was missing, Teresa said. His daughter, Sarah, and his employee, Lorenzo Chivers, had also vanished. No one had seen the them since February 7, exactly a week before. Rich and his wife Carol went to the address where Paul’s moving business, Tuff Movers, was located. Smeared across the side of one of the large moving trucks was what appeared to be blood. Another truck had several bullet holes in it. On realizing that it was a crime scene, Rich and Carol called the police.
