They introduced themselves as Captain Klein and Joseph Ryan.

They were from the LAPD and the district attorney's office.

Amy had already seen the newspaper's speculation, so she understood why they'd come.

With her mother and children looking on, Amy detailed her kidnappings.

Captain Klein and ADA Ryan interjected with questions.

What did Steve and Rose look like?

What anesthetic did they use to knock her out?

How did she escape the shack?

Amy responded as if she were telling them about a party.

She aimed to charm the men by being pleasant.

but her attitude may have piqued their suspicion.

Eddie A. Ryan pointed out that several of Amy's details aligned almost perfectly with the ransom letters Minnie had shown them while Amy was missing.

For example, Amy said two people pretending to have a sick baby lured her away from the beach.

The notes from the alleged kidnappers said the same thing.

It also said they'd drugged Amy and shoved her into a car.

In Ryan's experience, criminals didn't often recount the details of their felonies in writing.

It was also strange how closely their descriptions matched hers, sometimes down to the word.

Almost as if Amy had seen the ransom notes before they were mailed.

But Amy insisted she knew nothing about the letters and was eager to help catch her kidnappers.

Once she was back in LA, Amy rode with Captain Klein and ADA Ryan to Venice Beach to show them step-by-step how she'd been abducted.
