THAT'S
THAT'S GOING TO LAST. JUST A FEW MINUTES JOHN >> ALL RIGHT SARAH THANK YOU.
TONIGHT I WANT TO SHARE A STORY
ONE THAT IS VERY TOUGH TO HEAR
IT'S HARD TO EVEN IMAGINE
LOSING A LOVED ONE AND THEN
HAVING NO CLOSURE NO REAL WAY
OF MOVING FORWARD. FOUR YEARS
AGO A FISHERMAN STUMBLED UPON A
GRISLY DISCOVERY IN THE
ARKANSAS RIVER A HUMAN LEG.
INVESTIGATORS WERE QUICKLY ABLE
TO CONNECT IT TO ONE OF TWO
MISSING NORTH LITTLE ROCK
WOMEN. THE TWO
>> FRIENDS VANISHED NEARLY SIX
YEARS AGO BUT IN
>> ALL THAT TIME FEW QUESTIONS
HAVE BEEN ANSWERED. TODAY TODAY
THEY DON'T THINK OF IT I DON'T
THINK I'M AN I WAS DANCING IT
WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED? WHERE
WERE THEY GOING. WHAT WAS GOING
ON THAT NIGHT. OH MY GOD IT IS
REAL. SHE'S A CHILD IN SOME
WAYS SO I THOUGHT IF THEY WERE
TOGETHER AND THAT HAPPENED TO
WHO'S TO SAY THAT THE SAME
THING COULD HAPPEN TO WHAT
SEEMS LIKE SMALL OR
INSUFFICIENT TO ONE PERSON TO
ME IN THIS CASE A VERY LARGE
GIVE ME SOMETHING TO LET ME
KNOW IF I CAN HOLD ON TO A
LITTLE BIT OR IF I NEED TO BE
PLANNING A SERVICE MYSELF AND
TONIGHT NORTH LITTLE ROCK
POLICE CHIEF MIKE DAVIS IS HERE
WITH ME TO TALK ABOUT THIS
CASE. THANKS SO MUCH FOR COMING
IN
>> GLAD TO BE HERE. YOU KNOW
THIS CASE WAS REPORTED BUT IT
WAS NOT WIDELY PUBLICIZED NOT A
LOT OF PEOPLE HEARD ABOUT IT.
LET'S GO BACK TO THE BEGINNING
WHAT HAPPENED. YOU RECEIVED TWO
MISSING PERSONS REPORTS. YES
>> THEY WERE PRETTY CLOSE. NOT
THE SAME DAY BUT PRETTY CLOSE
BUT NOBODY REALLY PUT IT
TOGETHER. AND YOU KNOW JANUARY
2014 HAD A LADY THAT REPORTED
MISSING POSSIBLY BEEN MISSING
THREE OR FOUR DAYS. AND THEN
YOU KNOW THE NEXT DAY WE GET
SOMETHING ELSE BUT WE DON'T PUT
IT TOGETHER. A LOT OF TIMES YOU
KNOW SOMETHING'S MISSING BUT
YOU KNOW THEY'RE NOT REALLY
MISSING AND THEY'RE JUST NOT TO
BE FOUND OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT
AND THAT TURNED OUT NOT TO BE
THE CASE IN THIS PARTICULAR
INCIDENT AND IT WAS DETECTIVES
>> WORK FINDING THE PHONE
RECORDS DISCOVERING THAT BOTH
THEIR PHONES BASICALLY DIED AT
THE SAME TIME YES THEY DID.
THEY WERE PINGING FROM THE SAME
CELL TOWER AND THEY BOTH WENT
DEAD AT THE SAME TIME SO THEY
THEY WERE TOGETHER THERE'S NOT
ANY DOUBT IN OUR MIND ABOUT
>> IT. AND THEN THE THE
DISCOVERY
>> IN THE ARKANSAS RIVER WHICH
DID YOU SUSPECT THEN UP UNTIL
THEN THAT THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A
HOMICIDE HERE
>> WE ADDED I MEAN I JUST
PICKED TWO PEOPLE JUST DON'T
VANISH
>> IN THEIR VEHICLES GOING AS
WELL AND NO SIGN OF ANYTHING NO
CONTACT WITH ANYBODY AND NO ONE
PERSON WOULD REACH OUT YOU KNOW
AT SOME POINT BUT IT DIDN'T
HAPPEN AT ALL. SO I JUST WAS
THERE THE WORK FROM THE
BEGINNING REALLY. YOU
>> KNOW THIS FULL VERSION OF
THIS STORY WILL AIR TONIGHT AT
10:00 AND I WENT TO YOU TO YOUR
OFFICE TO DISCUSS THIS CASE AND
THIS IS REALLY THE ONLY
CRIMINAL CASE FILE
>> THAT YOU KEEP ON YOUR DESK
WHY? YOU
>> KNOW I DON'T KNOW? I MEAN
IT WAS JUST ONE OF THOSE THAT
CAUGHT MY ATTENTION WHEN IT
HAPPENED. YOU KNOW WE HAD
SAMANTHA OCEAN THAT WAS KILLED
JFK MCCAIN. AND THAT'S ANOTHER
CASE THAT UNSOLVED THIS ONE.
THERE'S SOMEBODY THAT KNOWS
THERE'S MORE THAN ONE PERSON
THAT KNOWS WHAT'S GOING ON AND
WE JUST REALLY WANT THEM TO
CALL AND GIVE US JUST GET US
STARTED. YOU KNOW IF WE GET
YOUR NAME THAT'S GREAT BUT IF
WE GET SOME ANONYMOUS
INFORMATION THAT POINTS IN THE
RIGHT DIRECTION THAT'S WHAT
WE'RE AT FOR THIS CASE CAN BE
SOLVED AND THAT'S WHAT'S ON MY
DESK? I MEAN WE NEED TO FIND
CLOSURE FOR THE FAMILY. YEAH I
MEAN WE WOULDN'T BE TALKING
ABOUT A CHILD THAT'S STILL HERE
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PARENTS
THAT ARE DEALING WITH THE
SISTERS THAT ARE DEALING WITH
THIS EVERY DAY AND I THINK IS
THIS STORY GOING TO BEAR OUT IS
IT THEY'RE STILL STRUGGLING
WITH IT RIGHT NOW. AND I DON'T
BLAME THEY WANT TO KNOW WHAT
HAPPENED
>> AND QUICKLY NO PIECE OF
INFORMATION IS TOO SMALL
>> NO IT'S NOT AT ALL THERE'S
A REWARD. I MEAN WE WERE
OFFERED UP TO TWENTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS FOR INFORMATION ON SO
PLEASE. MEAN GET INFORMATION
CALL US LET US KNOW WHEN AND
HOPEFULLY TONIGHT SEEING THE
STORY AND WE'LL GET
>> THAT. THANK YOU SO MUCH
