Her father made sure she could drive it.

The fact that it had a stick shift

was so instrumental in this story, as you will hear.

Still do.

And I take it some places, and you can't take it to valet half the time because sometimes they're not so sure how to do it.

Yes.

However, that was her life and that was why we called it that.

The story of the girl with the blue Mustang.

You know, initially we had a different name for this when it was a Dateline television show.

We were going to call it the man who knew too much.

Well, at least according to the police, he was too accurate.

And according to that lawyer who deposed him, Rex Paris, the lawyer who worked over Raymond Jennings, the security guard, for hours and hours and hours and really got them all riled up and just solidified the belief on the part of prosecutors and the family that

Raymond Jennings was the person who killed their daughter.

And again, it was because, you know, he came off as the man who knew too much and didn't bring a lawyer to the interview, didn't bring a lawyer to the interview with the police.

He was just...

Somebody who felt, well, I didn't do it, and I can tell them what happened, so I'll be helpful.

It was a perfect example of why, even if you want to be helpful and you're not guilty, it's a wise thing to have an attorney there with you so that you don't get yourself into trouble like he did.

Even if you're a highly experienced detective, he talked to everybody who was there and nothing made any sense except that this security guard was talking too much.

And that's usually a sign, often a sign that somebody, you know, is trying to hide his guilt by being too helpful.

But it's only one of many signs, except if that's all you have, you tend to latch onto it.
