He says, are you Tonya Hudkins McCarter?
She just got this distant deer in the headlight look.
And she didn't say anything.
She just stared at us.
And it was just like she was staring right through us.
Steve says we are with the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation, and we have been conducting an investigation alongside the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, and we actually have reason to believe that you're not Tonya Hudkins-McCarter, but that you are, in fact, Margo Freshwater, who is a fugitive.
And I knew right then, we were about 99, 98% sure that this was the right person.
But when I got that right there, it was like, she just realized this is it.
They finally called up to me.
Keep in mind, we're in the parking lot.
Everybody's looking around like, what in the hell is going on?
She has no emotion, like stoic, like there was no color in her face, but no emotion.
So now you're getting the, Daryl is like, you know, what, what are you talking about?
That's my wife.
And the kid's going, that's my mom.
They were...
for your fingerprints and she says fine are you you gonna take him here and we said no we are going to take you down to the columbus police department where they will be taken so at that point she turns and she started walking toward daryl and i remember like stopping her saying whoa whoa whoa whoa and she looked at me and said i just want to say goodbye so
She hugged him, whispered something in his ear, and his face went white.
We handcuff her, we're walking her to the cruiser, and she looks at Daryl and says, call the attorney.
I still couldn't relax yet, but that's when I thought it's got to be her.
