He was telling the truth, just made some bullshit up. May 2005, Mike, Tina's dad, contacted the detective with a story. His friend's daughter had been having dreams. Tina was coming to her, telling her where her body was. Really? The daughter said that she didn't know her father was friends with Mike, nor did she know anything about the Sandoval case. They didn't know anything about that.
Poliisi ei pystynyt puhumaan hÀneltÀ jÀlkeen joulukuussa 2005, kun hÀn oli Veldt-kuntien jÀlkeen, kun hÀn oli vahvistunut rukouksista. HÀn sanoi, ettÀ aloin ajatella unelmia ensin Tina Sandovalin tullessaan, sitten kuulin muista ihmistÀ, ettÀ Lori Ortega sanoi, ettÀ Tina oli vahvistunut ja pöytÀnyt pöytÀkoneessa, jossa oli Pepsin distribuutio-centra ja Downtown Greeley.
So, you know, she's got this big story. And she said that she dreams of Tina doing all this. She said another man came in the room and asked John what he was doing while he was killing Tina. And John said, shut the fuck up and get out of here. And then John went back to beating her. And all of this type of thing. It is... I like... Okay, I'm not a fan of psychics. But that one knowing... The...
Joku sanoi, ettÀ joku sanoi hÀnelle, ettÀ hÀn auttoi hÀnet, mutta se toinen psykiatri sanoi, ettÀ kaksi henkilöÀ tehtiin tÀtÀ. Se on liian paljon. Se on paljon. He sanoivat, ettÀ haluatko jollain medikaatiota? HÀn sanoi, ettÀ ei. He sanoivat, ettÀ oletko ottanut jollain drugsia viimeisenÀ? HÀn sanoi, ettÀ olen puhunut marihuanaa yleensÀ ja olin kÀyttÀnyt metanfetaminaa yleensÀ, mutta olen saanut sen kaksi kuukautta. Olen varma, ettÀ kaikki on hyvÀ nyt.
Kaksi kuukautta. Olen kylmÀ ja kylmÀ. Se on hyvÀ. 2.2.2007. Toinen tippu.
He said they were there for four hours and remembered them talking about going to an upcoming Led Zeppelin concert in Denver in 1995. The ground was really hard and they were only able to get 18 inches into the ground. They did a Google search and found that the Zeppelin concert was at the end of August that year, giving the timeline for the trench was three months before the desert. It's before Tina even left him. Makes no sense.
June 2007 a woman called to say she was sure Tina was buried under her house in Greeley after hearing her renters arguing and the male threatening the female with burying her beneath the house. Quote, just like Tina was. Police didn't bother looking that one up. Police in November of 2007 get another psychic tip from Mary Ellen. They said they brought cadaver dogs and for three hours they searched.
Ja kyllÀ, ei löytynyt mitÀÀn. Loppu-2008, alkuperÀinen 2009, on uusia nÀköjÀrjestöjÀ asemassa. Uuden DA-asistentti Michael Roark. HÀn ei tiedÀ mitÀÀn John Sandovalista tai muuta hÀntÀ.
He said, he wanted the family to know prosecution could still happen and they were still looking at this. Right.
So they present a bunch of shit to the family and said, at the end of the presentation, Rourke said, my thought was, it's not going to get any better with waiting any longer. What are we waiting for? So he said that he would have waited if he was that other guy, the old district attorney. He said, but the girl hadn't been missing long enough to really show a jury it was much more than a missing persons case. But he said, I remember reviewing the PowerPoint, and I wouldn't say there was no doubt, but I felt like...
HeillÀ oli oikea henkilö ja meidÀn piti vain löytÀÀ tavoitteen. Olin melko uskomattomassa, mutta samalla se oli hieno suunnitelma, ettÀ hÀnet pitÀisi kÀsitellÀ ja mennÀ. He sanoivat, ettÀ yritÀmme kÀsitellÀ Jonin kanssa ja katsotaan, mitÀ me saamme. He sanoivat, ettÀ kuten jokaisella kÀsitteellÀ, he mennevÀt takaisin ensimmÀiseen ja katsovat kaikkia evidenssejÀ, koska tÀmÀ on uusia nÀkymiÀ.
So this Olsen, who's been here the whole time, pulled out notebooks and began flipping through the pages. He said, I knew we had to have missed something. Something is here and we haven't discovered it yet. The smoking gun, so to speak. Then he was looking at diagrams of evidence found in John's bathroom. His boots, pile of his clothes, his glasses on the counter. And then he saw it.
Noted right on the diagram as two separate numbers indicating two credit cards found in the drawer in the bathroom. They had forgotten that was there.
Se ei koskaan tullut evidenssiin, siksi he eivÀt olleet rauhoittaneet. HÀnen kredittikorttiaan? HÀnen kredittikorttiaan, joita hÀn ei olisi saavutettava. Ei ollut syy, ettÀ heillÀ olisi niitÀ. Ei. He sanoivat, ettÀ katsotaan ja nÀhdÀÀn evidenssiin, ettÀ siellÀ on kredittikortteja. En pystynyt löytÀmÀÀn mitÀÀn kertaa kredittikortteista. Joku tÀysin haastoi sitÀ. He pysyivÀt. MitÀ? He pysyivÀt ja jÀttiin. He sanoivat, ettÀ he olivat valmistuneet ja ei ollut mitÀÀn, ettÀ he olivat löytÀneet. Tai ettÀ he olivat Tina's name. He olivat vain kappaleessa. Sitten siellÀ.
She said these credit cards of Tina's, one in which she had just used three days before the homicide, were in her possession. He could not have gotten those credit cards from her unless it was on that night. Right, he had to have seen her. Because she had them three days before. And she hadn't been in any contact with John for 30 days.
Poliisi sanoi, ettÀ ne olivat pysyneet ruokakauppaan, joten se kertoo, ettÀ hÀn oli niitÀ onnistunut ruokakauppaan rauhassa ja nopeasti pysynyt niitÀ ruokakauppaan. Kukaan ei ole löytÀnyt niitÀ vuonna 1995. Kukaan ei ole nÀhnyt kredittikarttoja. Se on periaatteellinen esimerkki, miksi sinÀ jatkat menemÀÀn takaisin.
Oh shit. So they look at the clothes, the credit cards, and they're looking at all this, and they said, John's t-shirt was drenched in perspiration. He'd been out in the middle of the night and it was 20 degrees outside. The perspiration marks were so heavy they left a ring of salt on the shirt. Ew, he'd been working his ass off.
He said, this is someone profusely perspiring. To leave a white stain, you're exerting a lot of energy, whatever you're doing. And then there's sand found in places where it normally wouldn't be. His pockets in the hood of his sweatshirt. How does dirt get into the hood of your sweatshirt? Because you're down below ground level throwing a shovel over your shoulder. That's how. You're in a hole. Yep. Sand ultimately determined to come from a riverbed of some sort was found in the grommet of the flashlight as well as hidden in the crevices of John's clothes.
They said in 1995, I don't think we put together where all the sand debris was, like in his pockets or his hood. We didn't understand the significance. They fucked up a lot. No kidding. They said also, you can envision it's dark outside, he's doing his work, he's got a flashlight around his neck, he's digging a grave. The glasses themselves with muddy spots don't mean anything, but if you put it all together, you can envision what sinister acts are occurring. He's digging in the ground, mud's coming up.
The rope around the flashlight was to hang it like a necklace. Like a soap on a rope. Wow. So Rourke said, when I got done reading everything, I was left with the very strong feeling that John Sandoval killed her. If we can present everything to the jury that I just read in these reports, the jury will understand and get it. Yeah.
