Emily Simpson

You know, this background of like religion and like this small town.

And Brian was adopted, I believe, through the church.

He wasn't their biological child, but they adopted him when he was a baby.

Because the whole time I kept thinking he doesn't look anything like his mom or his dad.

But then they later talk about how he was adopted.

Okay.

But anyway, so the dad, if you look at the interrogation videos of the dad when he's sitting next to Brian, when Brian's being interrogated by the police.

This is back in 06.

He's like a really healthy looking, hefty guy.

He's got kind of like a full head of red hair.

And he's like, you know, kind of, I don't, I was gonna say full figured, but what do you say for a man?

He's like kind of, you know, stocky.

Anyway, then when you watch him in the documentary, like present day, like talking about- 20 years later.

20 years later.

Yeah.

He, I don't know if he, I'm speculating, but it looks as if maybe he had a stroke or something.

He has trouble talking.

It sounds like you can tell, you can see that the 20 years of his son being in prison and being convicted of being a murderer and also the devastation of the other family and just everything that he's dealing with as a father just completely devastated this man.

Like he is, you can see it physically physically.

No, he was very thin.
