So they searched dairies, they searched wells, sewers, abandoned farms, everywhere they searched. Goldschmidt said, I wouldn't say we searched top to bottom throughout the county, but a good portion of it and Larimer County too. FBI reports showed no DNA, no fingerprints, nothing linking Tina to John's clothes or her car or his. Huh.
No physical evidence. Plant life and sand collected from Tina's car and John's boots were coming up with little also. They didn't match either. So Goldschmidt said it was frustrating. We had some tips that were better than others that were more plausible just by virtue of where they were and what we knew about what was discovered in John's car and places he may have been. Some tips seems like they had potential and the majority did not.
He check his job here, call center in Greeley where he called in sick the whole week of her disappearance. They just said he was very quiet, he was a loner. That's it. There's a hair lady, lady that cut John's hair about a week before Tina's disappearance. She said that he seemed distraught and that he blamed his depression on the breakup of his marriage.
She said that his talk made her uncomfortable as it was so intimate. He complained to the young woman that he'd missed three days of work sitting in his bedroom in the dark trying to deal with the breakup. She said that he told her that he finally decided to pull himself together. But he kept bitching, though. She said, he said, I gave her everything. I can't understand why she's leaving.
TÀmÀ ei ollut joku, joka on saanut hÀntÀ vuosia ja tietÀÀ hÀntÀ. TÀmÀ oli hÀnen ensimmÀinen tuntemus saloon. HyvÀ. Jeesus Kristi. TÀmÀ on jokainen, joka kuuntelee. Jokainen ystÀvÀ. John kertoi myös hÀnelle, ettÀ hÀnen kaveri oli nÀhnyt toisen ihmisen. HÀn pysyivÀt hÀntÀ konfusioon. HÀn sanoi, ettÀ hÀn halusi työskennellÀ asioita yksi minuutti, sitten hÀn halusi perustaa seuraavan.
A couple weeks later the cops get an anonymous call from a woman stating that she had spoken with someone who knew an inmate who roomed with John in the jail, who bunked with him in there, and said that he talks in his sleep. And the inmate had told her that John said in his sleep, I cut her up and fed her to the pigs. This becomes a very common one. There's a bunch of people who say that they heard him say, I cut her up and fed her to the pigs. Hmm.
Two weeks later, a Greeley resident called Rex Tincher called police to report a conversation with John at a bar the night before Tina's disappearance. This Rex told Goldschmidt that he had run into John at Rafferty's, a bar in West Greeley, at about 11 p.m.
The two men sat down for a drink. They commiserated about their problems with women for 10 minutes. He said John seemed upset when the conversation ended. He said, quote, too bad we can't just kill him.
TÀmÀ kaveri sanoi, ettÀ se oli yllÀttÀvÀÀ sanoa. Se on yllÀttÀvÀÀ sanoa. Se on yllÀttÀvÀÀ sanoa. Se on yllÀttÀvÀÀ sanoa.
for the woman he followed. The same day he also appeared in court to face a felony weapons charge, that Taurus 9mm in his car. As a convicted felon he wasn't allowed to carry any guns. Nope. So they found one in his home and one in his car. He pleads guilty in March of 96 to the trespassing charge in the other case in exchange for the gun possession charges being dropped in a plea agreement and they sentence him to, you sir, may fuck off six years in prison finally.
Wow. They said noting his past like normally I wouldn't be giving six years for this, but you have earned every day of this shit. While he's in prison, they can really follow up now. But they keep getting these leads, quote unquote, that are more like just dead ends and false trails and just, you know, shadows of nothing, basically. So tips come in and police would interview anybody. They didn't care. They had nothing. So they need to interview anybody.
He said, unfortunately our investigation at the beginning was kind of rerouted from investigating John to trying to find Tina. Everybody was put in that direction, including investigators, and we shouldn't have been. He said we should have thought from the beginning, she's dead, investigate him. But instead, they were trying to find her.
April 29th, 1996, Goldschmidt goes searching from the air, repeating areas that they searched on foot, a trailer court, some town over here, gravel pits, Barnesville areas where they had once lived in that area. May 13th, 1996, another call came in from a man whose friend said he overheard John in jail saying the best way to get rid of a body is to feed it to the pigs. We've had this come up several times. So many times.
There's a psychic who sent Mike and Mary Ellen, Tina's parents, on a field trip to Wyoming...
A tip about an old mine that sent them all the way on private property to some closed down mine. They could have been shot. They could have fallen in a mine. They found nothing, obviously. July 31st, 1996, Weld County jail inmate Robert Brown tells Detective Goldschmidt he once served time with John. In that time while they were incarcerated, there was one instance in which John appeared to be drugged from some medication that
He was taking. So this guy said, what happened to your wife as they lay in the bunks? John, he said, smirked and said sarcastically, they'll never find her. I cut her up. Brown said that John had either buried or burned the body, but he couldn't remember which. He also told the detective that he talked to other inmates who had apparently heard the same story from John, but Goldschmidt could find no other inmates who claimed to have heard that.
A month later another call came from a woman whose mother knew something, or knew someone who was housed in jail with John. This person said that John admitted to shooting Tina, then burying her in the Red Feather Lakes area of northwest Fort Collins, also in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. So they contacted the mother, who was afraid of giving police information, and said she firmly believed John would come back and kill anyone who provided the police information.
Joten hÀn ei puhu. Lopulta vuodesta 1996 on psykinen nimi, Nancy Miller, joka puhuu siitÀ. Toinen. KyllÀ. Mary Ellen, Tina's Àiti, yrittÀÀ arvostaa Goldschmidtia puhumaan psykisille. Okei. Nyt poliitikot pohjaavat tietysti psykisistÀ, mutta Goldschmidt sanoi jotain, kuka tietÀÀ. TiedÀt, mitÀ tarkoitan? HÀn sanoi myös, ettÀ noin vuosi ennen Goldschmidtin työtÀ, jossa ihminen tappoi kaksi naisia Fort Collinsissa,
HÀnen tyyppiÀnsÀ tuli poliisi yksikölle, joka sanoi, ettÀ vain psykiatriset voivat saada hÀnet tuohon. Se oli hÀnen tyyppiÀnsÀ, Goldschmidts. HÀn sanoi, ettei pystytÀ ratkaisemaan ihmisiÀ, jotka sanovat, ettÀ he ovat psykiatriset. He voivat vain kÀyttÀÀ psykiatrisen nÀkökulman, jotta he saavat enemmÀn tietoa. Kun saan psykiatrisen ratkaisun, ajattelen aina siitÀ tapauksesta, ja jos siinÀ on ulottuvuus. He voisivat olla murhaukset. TÀmÀ kuulostaa. TÀssÀ tapauksessa psykiatri kertoi Goldschmidta, ettÀ Tina oli yhdessÀ tyyppiÀ.
who was a white male, and on the date of her disappearance, they met at a restaurant with the word sizzler in it. Gee, wonder which one that was. Sizzler maybe? There's also western sizzling in Colorado. You know what? Yeah. Or isn't that western skillet? Western sizzling.
