There's two types of jacks involved in this incident. One is a regular car jack. The other jack was a boat jack, which is basically a tube with another telescoping tube that comes out of it. not safe for a car. His story is that this car jack, this more stable one, didn't work, so he used a boat jack to jack up the car.

There were lug nuts under the car. And then he said he went to the back of the Jeep and he tossed the tire into the back of the Jeep. and that when he did that, it dislodged the Jeep. And he heard a scream, and he said he ran to the front of the vehicle, and he could see that the vehicle had dropped and was laying on his wife.

I was given the Lynn Henthorne case to reinvestigate in January of 2013. I discovered in the documentation one of the first witnesses on scene. When I called her up, I said, can you think of any reason why a detective from Douglas County would want to call you and talk to you? And her response to me was, that lady, I still have nightmares about that.

When Dave Weaver was assigned to the case, he opened it up as a possible homicide. And he was looking at is that even physically possible for someone to crawl under a car to get lug nuts and then have this jack collapse?

Yeah.

Yeah.

So one of the versions that Harold gave lands here six feet away from the Jeep. He takes the tire, he walks to the back, puts the tire to the back. Whatever he did caused the Jeep to fall off the jack.
