Yeah, I had first learned about the case because I had seen the footage.
And what immediately struck me about the video was how raw it was.
I mean, I've been doing this work like all of us for a long time.
And, you know, I've never seen this kind of extreme personal experience.
way that a person unraveled in real time.
I mean, the video shocked me, ripping off his shirt and pulling his hair out.
But then when I found out that the story was that dad was actually alive, it made me realize that all of these people that hear false confession stories all the time and say, did he really?
Well, this one we now know because dad's alive.
So it made me wonder, how did it all happen?
It was really the police that had never spoken before from their perspective.
And given Lester's work in this space and his reputation, they spoke exclusively to him to explain the backstory of why he came to be.
And he said also, Dad also said that they had felt, fallen before, that they had accidents in the house.

Yeah, I mean, I think that what you're referring to is confirmation bias, really, in that they saw him as a suspect.
