I said, you've been hurting these women. And he shook his head, yes. And then he put his head in his hands, looked up and said, I want my psychiatrist and an attorney.
You'd have to watch every tape. I think there was 40-something tapes. And in between these movies, then it would be spliced in of an attack of a female.
And most, well, the three of them positively identified Miller as the suspect who attacked them.
Like it's a stone's throw to the college. I think the area he stays in is called College Town. So there's a laundromat a block away from where he's staying, and it's a 24-hour laundromat. Well, that's his M.O. They put him right back where he does everything. And so it's like, this is unbelievable.
So that's when we're called. We weren't involved at all until the car was found. And then the patrol deputy showed up, and then a detective came. You know, obviously, given the circumstances, it quickly morphed into, you know, something weird is going on.
Nowadays, we would have definitely kept stuff for DNA, but they didn't know what DNA was. So a heavy, intensive search starts. They had people on foot searching. They had bloodhounds. They actually arranged to have a helicopter from the Army National Guard when they did an aerial search. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources was also involved.
What that could mean is that he traveled away from where the car was found and could have potentially got picked up. Or he could have got on the road and walked a certain way. You know, it's hard to tell. I know there's mention in the reports of, I think, one of the nights around that time it rained. So that can throw this off, obviously.
The bed linens were unkept. Food was eaten out of the refrigerator. Somebody had emptied a cigarette ashtray out in her sink. I mean, it's apparent to me that whoever was at the house was there for a period of time, like they had been almost staying there for a little while.
She pulls in the driveway. The friend does. It's a long driveway up a hill. And there's a car sitting in the driveway facing up the driveway towards the house. And it's running with the lights on. So obviously, given the circumstances of what she was going there for, she was pretty freaked out. But she approached the car. There was a male in the driver's seat.
And he said, I'm looking for my friend, Bob. I'm looking for my friend. I'm looking for my friend, Bob. And she said, well, nobody by that name lives here. This is private property. She said he was very polite, very apologetic and said, I'm sorry. And then he put in reverse back down the driveway, got to the road and then continued east away from where the car was eventually found.
There's just so many avenues you can go, you know. It was not in his nature to not stick to the plan or at a minimum not let somebody know, like, let Randy know he wasn't going to be showing up at the house. He would have... stopped at a payphone to let Randy know, like, hey, I'm going to go check out a spot maybe to hunt tomorrow. I'll be late. That's what he would have done.
He wouldn't have no-showed or stood him up, especially if he knew that his mom was making dinner for them and that would have been disrespectful and he was not about that.
The quarry was kind of a popular place for locals to go and like target shoot and just, you know, whatever, hang out. So the following Thursday, somebody's in their target shooting and they notice there's these tires discarded in the quarry that weren't there the last time he was there, which was just a few days before. Also with the tires are the hubcaps from an AMC car.
So we get called down there. They talked to the guy that found the tires. And while you can't say 100% with certainty, they matched the hubcaps from the AMC to a T.
So what it's presumed happened was somebody took the wheels off of the AMC, which was almost a brand new car, and popped the hubcaps off the wheels and then put the new wheels on their vehicle and discarded their old wheels with the hubcaps.
So they kind of ran into a dead end with that because I think they were trying to narrow down who would have this type of car and it was just, there was just too many. And we don't know if that was somebody who was involved with Robert's disappearance or if it was somebody who was being an opportunist and saw the car sitting there and said, I could use those tires and I could use that battery.
and, you know, took him from the car without being involved with what happened to Robert. It's a possibility, but it's also possible that they are also the ones that are responsible for his disappearance.
They pretty much just were interviewing anybody and everybody who associated with Robert, who knew him. And he wasn't a guy that had a lot of drama, you know. Like I said, he was pretty cut and dry as far as like his personal life. Never had any history of running away. A very squared away guy. Nothing, never got in trouble. Was in Boy Scouts, you know, athletic.
And just had his life together, you know, for an 18-year-old kid.
I mean, they literally talked to his neighbors, all of his friends, of course family, and not a single person said he had any beef with anybody. I mean, he was just a likable guy who wasn't into drama or anything like that.
