Larry McNabney (Victim)

And when he came back, he was full throttle.

Larry's drinking was affecting Ron, and eventually, he couldn't take it anymore.

We all have demons, and he had demons.

And he took those demons on and off, on and off over the years.

Their partnership broke up, and then along the way, Larry got married again and had two more kids.

I spoke to his daughter, Tavia, in 2002 when I first reported on this story.

What was he like as a father?

But while his kids say he may have been a loving dad, Larry's demons may have prevented him from being a great husband.

Larry was mentally abusive to women because of his drinking.

And then Cheryl Tangent came along.

My name is Cheryl Tangin and I grew up in Reno.

I'm an artist and I was with Larry for seven years.

They had joined this cult where they had tried to find inner peace.

He was trying to center himself.

But then I think they began to want him to get involved more, and Larry wasn't going to follow anybody else's drum.

He was going to beat his own.

This would have been probably in 1991.

He came back and business went off the hook.

You know, you could tell he was a true cowboy, almost like the Marlboro Man.

It worked because people immediately connected to him on that level.
