I know, I knew my children and knew them well. Clint was, he was never a suspect in my mind. That thought never entered my mind.
I mean, I just kept in the back of my mind that, you know, the truth is going to come out someday. But watching Clint go through all that was very sad and very hard. And I did stay angry about that a lot because we had lost one child. And in a sense, I felt like I had lost another child because... Somebody was trying to take your other child. Yes.
Somebody has my daughter. They have kidnapped her. Please get there now. They're on their way.
20-year-old female, blonde hair.
Holly was an absolute joy from the day she was born. It just seemed like there was something special about her. She was always kind to people and appreciated the small things in life.
I taught plant in the sixth grade and I had Holly in the fourth grade.
Yeah. Well, Holly was the perfect student. Always wanted to get her work finished and had everything ready ahead of time. Clint, I had to tap on his desk just about every day. And then when we'd get in the car, he'd say, why are you always tapping on my desk and no one else's? And I said, because everybody else is paying attention.
If something went wrong, she would always call me. We shared a bond that she would sometimes look at me and say, that's scary because we could finish each other's sentences. You were always that close? Always that close. From the time she was born? Pretty much from the time she was born. We enjoyed doing the same things. Like what? Riding horses, listening to the radio.
She said, well, that's silly for us both to drive. You could just ride with me. It's kind of a joke around school, like carrying your rides here.
You know, we even talked about, could they live close to us and things like that.
She was sitting up against the wall on her bed and had her books in her hands, and she said that she'd been up since about 4.30, studying for the test.
So that morning I got her muffins out of the refrigerator, put them on a plate and stuck them in the microwave. She was sitting at the kitchen table studying and I kissed her goodbye and told her I loved her just like every other morning.
She didn't want to alarm me, but the neighbor had called and thought they heard screams coming from the house.
I said, that's not Drew. Get a gun and shoot him. And Clint said, you want me to shoot Drew? And I think that's when I hung up and called 911. You know, when things like this happen, everybody's like, oh, I would have done this, I would have done that. The truth is, you don't know what you would do or say. So I never got the words out.
I've talked to Drew on the phone because I am in a full-fledged panic by then.
No, I was just trying to get someone over to the house.
And I collapsed to the floor, and everybody trying to say, it's okay, Karen, this is all just a mistake. But see, they didn't know what I knew that morning. Which was? Drew was not in our house. It couldn't be Drew. And that the neighbor had heard a scream. No one in that office knew that.
Somebody has my daughter. They have kidnapped her.
I'm trying to take her the fastest route. So I'm up on the window, you know, saying, hang a right, hang a left. I don't know how fast we were going, but fast.
When I get there, I don't remember what order everything went in. Ran through the woods, calling her name, and then more people come up.
