Cal Harris

From his perspective, they put him through hell, four trials, three years behind bars, and many years of separation from his children.

I know.

It's amazing.

It really is a story straight out of the movies.

Yeah, it really is.

You know, Andrea, I am not surprised.

Cal Harris made it clear in our Dateline interview years ago that he felt law enforcement had treated him unfairly from day one.

From his perspective, they put him through hell, four trials, three years behind bars, and many years of separation from his children.

Michelle's van was found abandoned at the bottom of the driveway of the home she and Cal shared with their four children.

The keys were still in the ignition of that van, but there was no sign of Michelle.

And remember, Andrea, it was 9-11, and the rest of the world was looking elsewhere.

No, no, they didn't, Andrea.

No.

He was not.

Now, Kyle will tell you, and he did tell us, that he didn't go out searching because there were plenty of other searchers, and he wanted to be with his children.

He is a dedicated dad.

But also, the 11-year marriage between Kyle and Michelle was on the rocks, and the two of them were in the process of getting divorced.

Some of Michelle's family members and friends told investigators that Kyle was controlling.

And just before she disappeared, investigators said he was particularly stressed out by the financial and custody implications of the split.

Investigators told us the biggest clue was something they found inside the Harris home.
