Christopher Tapp

Until, you'll recall, January of 1997, when Tapp was brought in for questioning after his friend Ben Hobbs was arrested for a Nevada sexual attack, which police said was similar to the murder of Angie Dodge.

And as you've seen, over the course of several weeks, Christopher Tapp soon went from saying he knew nothing about Angie Dodge's murder to being the only man charged in the case.

Well, of course, one of the difficulties was your story kept changing, right?

Very much it did.

I mean, you went from saying, I don't know anything about this, to then saying, well, maybe Ben had something to do with it.

To then, well, maybe there's a third guy involved, to...

Wait a minute, I was there, and, oh, yeah, and I cut her.

Where did that come from?

And indeed, here it is on tape with then-detective-turned-mayor Jared Furman in charge of the interview.

Do you believe that story?

Hook, line, and sinker.

Try to put yourself there right now and tell me what was going on inside your stomach and your brain.

Scared.

And then they charged you with murder?

Yeah.

As we spoke here back in 2012, Chris Tapp was fighting to clear his name with the support of the Idaho Innocence Project and the victim's mother.

Carol Dodge came around.

To your side, what was that like?

Carol, of course, despite this turnabout and new mission in life, was still stuck in her grief.

And by the time our first report on this case aired in 2012, more than 16 years after the murder of Angie Dodge, those river kids, Chris Tapp's friends, had tried to move on as well, but couldn't.
