>> Janine: TWO YEARS AFTER HIS
SHOCKING DEATH, PARKER'S POLICE
FAMILY STILL HAS NO ANSWERS, AND
HIS WIFE OF NEARLY 40 YEARS

HAVE TO DO IS GET UP AND
BREATHE.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF THE REST."

THE PATRIARCH OF AN EXTENDED

IN 2015 JUST SIX YEARS AFTER HE
RETIRED AND A DAY AFTER HIS
62nd BIRTHDAY, BOBBY PARKER
TOOK HIS OWN LIFE.
>> I'VE TORN THIS HOUSE APART.
I'VE TORN THE GEORGIA HOUSE
APART.
I'VE TORN THE NORTH CAROLINA
HOUSE APART.
NOTHING.
I LOOKED THROUGH HIS PHONE, HIS
iPAD, HIS PERSONAL PAPERS.
NOTHING.
WE WERE SO HAPPY THAT DAY
THE STORM CAME AND THEN THE
LIGHTS WENT OUT.
I WAS STANDING IN THIS FRONT
YARD, AND MY SONS, THEY WENT TO
THE BACK, AND WHEN I HEARD THEM
SCREAM, THEY SAID, "DADDY, NO!"
I KNEW IT WASN'T GOOD.
AND THEN THAT'S WHEN I.
[ NOT AUDIBLE ]
I CLOSED HIS EYES.
I JUST LAID THERE ON TOP OF HIM.
I THINK IT WAS RESCUE TO TOOK ME
OFF.
>> JUST DID LIKE A PERIMETER
CHECK AROUND THE WHOLE HOUSE.
>> Calvin: PARKER'S TWO SONS
TOOK ME TO THE CANAL ACROSS FROM
THEIR HOME WHERE THEY FOUND
THEIR FATHER'S BODY.
>> DEFINITELY THINK ABOUT HIM
EVERY DAY.
WE MISS HIM SO MUCH.
>> I THANK GOD FOR HIM, YO
KNOW, EVERY DAY, FOR THE 24
YEARS THAT HE WAS IN MY LIFE.
>> IT WAS JUST SO UNEXPECTED.
FOR SOMEONE TO BE SO HAPPY AT
THAT TIME, YOU JUST NEVER KNO
AND THE REASON, WE JUST BELIEVE
IT WAS MENTAL ILLNESS BECAUSE HE
JUST DID NOT DISPLAY THE SIGNS
>> IT WASN'T JUST A LOSS FOR THE
FAMILY.
IT WAS A LOSS FOR THE COMMUNITY
HIS RACE WAS DONE AND HE HAD
FINISHED HIS RACE, AND IT WAS
TIME FOR HIM TO GO.
