BACK TO YOU AS THE NEWS BREAKS.
TED WILLIAMS LIVE ON THE GROUND.
LET’S BRING IN FORMER LAPD
DETECTIVE MARK FURMAN.
HE LIVES A COUPLE HOURS AWAY
FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO.
GREAT TO HAVE YOU ON.
I WANT THIS ON THE SCREEN.
THIS IS THE STAFFING FOR THE
INVESTIGATION.
MOSCOW POLICE DEPARTMENT, FOUR
DETECTIVES, 24 PATROL OFFICERS,
THE FBI, 22 INVESTIGATORS IN
MOSCOW, IDAHO STATE POLICE, 20
INVESTIGATORS, 15 TROOPERS.
LOOKS LIKE THIS IS AN ALL HANDS
ON DECK SITUATION.
THEN WE’RE HEARING STORIES ABOUT
NEIGHBORS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN
INTERVIEWED.
THIS IS A SLOW-MOVING
INVESTIGATION.
YOU THINK THIS INVESTIGATION IS
MOVING ALONG WELL.
>> WELL, I THINK IT’S MOVING
ALONG WELL.
THEY ESTABLISHED A TASK FORCE
AND BROUGHT IN LEADERSHIP AND
EXPERTISE FOR SPECIFIC AREAS
LIKE BLOOD SPLATTER ANALYSIS,
PROFILING THE SUSPECT.
ANYTHING THAT THEY COULD WORK
WITH AT THE SCENE.
THEY ALSO RELIEVED THE IDAHO
STATE POLICE ALL OF THE MOSCOW
OFFICERS AND DETECTIVES TO WORK
SPECIFICALLY ON THIS HOMICIDE.
THERE WAS GREAT LEADERSHIP
TRENDS GOING ON THERE.
THERE’S ALSO THE ABILITY FOR
THEM AND WHICH THEY DID.
THEY WORKED FROM THE CENTER AND
THEY RAID YEAHEDED OUT FROM
THERE AND ACCOUNTED FOR THE FOUR
VICTIMS WHEREABOUTS FROM THE
LAST TIME THEY WERE SEEN ALIVE
TO THE POINT WHERE THEY WERE
MURDERED AT THEIR RESIDENCE.
SO THEY HAVE COMPLETED THIS.
NOW THEY’RE RADIATING OUT FROM
THERE ASKING HELP FROM THE
PUBLIC AND TRYING TO GO TO MORE
REMOTE AREAS OF INTEREST, WHICH
COULD BE SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS,
RESIDENT’S RING CAMERAS,
VEHICLES THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN IN
THE AREA.
SO THEY’RE DOING THIS PROPERLY.
SOMETIMES IT TAKES TIME.
UNFORTUNATELY IT HAS NOT EBBLICI
ELICITED BLOOD SPLATTERS.
>> Trace: WE HAD A PARENT THAT
SAID INVESTIGATORS SAID IT WAS A
SLOPPY SCENE, IT WAS A MESS AND
THERE WAS BLOOD SPLATTER
EVERYWHERE.
BUT IF THEY GET DNA AND THIS
SUSPECT WHOEVER THEY MAY BE IS
NOT IN THE SYSTEM, CAN THEY USE
GENETIC GENEALOGY TO TRY TO
ATTACH THIS PERSON, THE DNA TO
SOMEBODY?
>> WELL, THE GOLDEN STATE KILLER
WAS CAUGHT EXACTLY THAT WAY.
THAT’S A LONG WAY DOWN THE ROAD.
FIRST, BLOOD SPLATTER ANALYSIS
HAS TO ESTABLISH WHICH VICTIM
WAS FIRST, SECOND, THIRD AND
FOURTH.
THEY CAN DO THAT AND FAIRLY
RAPIDLY BECAUSE IT’S NOT
SCIENTIFIC TEST.
IT’S USING TRIGONOMETRY AND A
LOT OF CALCULATIONS AT THE SANE.
TOMORROW AT THE PRESS
CONFERENCE, I THINK THAT WE
SHOULD DEAL WITH WHAT FACTS WE
KNOW AND I THINK SO SHOULD THE
PRESS CONFERENCE.
TRY TO SIMULATE THE PUBLIC TO
WORK ON WHAT THEY CAN AND
REMEMBER WHAT THEY CAN.
ONE OF THOSE THINGS TOMORROW
SHOULD BE WHY THEY THINK
SOMEBODY WAS TARGETED.
OF COURSE, IF YOU’RE A VICTIM OF
A CRIME, YOU’RE ALWAYS TARGETED.
THAT’S NOT THE POINT.
IF IT WAS SO SPECIFIC THAT THEY
CAN ESTABLISH ONE, WHO THE FIRST
VICTIM WAS THAT WAS STABBED.
IF THEY CAN ESTABLISH ANYTHING
ELSE, THEY SHOULD RELAY IT TO
THE PUBLIC.
THE SECOND THING IS, LET’S GO
BACK TO THE MURDER WEAPON.
THE CORONER AND THE PATHOLOGIST
WORKING WITH EACH OTHER
ESTABLISHED THAT THE VICTIMS
WERE ALL KILLED WITH THE SAME
WEAPON WHICH WAS A
MILITARY-STYLE SURVIVAL-TYPE OF
BUOY KNIFE.
THEY KNOW THIS BECAUSE OF A FEW
REASONS.
THIS IS A LITTLE GRAPHIC.
BUT THIS IS THE KNIFE THAT THEY
WERE LOOKING AT.
THIS STYLE OF KNIFE.
THIS HILT RIGHT HERE, WHEN
YOU’RE IN THE AUTOPSY, WHEN A
VICTIM IS STABBED WITH THIS
KNIFE CAUSES A BRUISES.
THAT’S HOW THEY KNEW THEY HAD
THIS STYLE OF A KNIFE WITH A
HILT.
SO RE-ESTABLISHING THE FACTS
TOMORROW IN THE PRESS CONFERENCE
MIGHT HELP PEOPLE TO WORK ON
THINGS OVER THE HOLIDAY THAT
OTHERWISE THEY WOULDN’T.
I THINK THAT’S ONE OF THE WAYS
THAT WE’LL MOVE THIS FORWARD IF
