Lieutenant Dave Messmore

He was beside himself. He didn't cry, but he was emotionally distraught. And he convinced me that there was something wrong. I'd never encountered a child that young to be so well-spoken. He was not like a little 11- or 12-year-old you'd normally talk to. He was just very astute. At that point, I couldn't really pass it off to another detective.

He was in despair. I just wanted to get it done, and I wanted to be able to tell Collier that we found his mother.

The more you talk to other people that are acquainted with him, you find out an awful lot about that person. And in his case, he had a completely different personality. You know, he was always laughing and joking around with people. But that wasn't him. That was a facade.

He would call me frequently, and I'd talk to him whenever I could. He was just worried, did you find my mother? And I said, no, Collier, not right now. I'm working on it, though. Just to reassure him.

Well, it kind of developed that way. I don't know that he was interested in it, but he had nobody else to confide in.

He had told people that his family was very important back in Pennsylvania where they lived. Mainline Pennsylvania people. None of that was true.

He was pretty well known around the hospital and the doctor's areas for having girlfriends and picking up girls. And people I talked to, they said that he's pretty much a philanderer. The more I talked to, the worse it got. And I thought, well, it's not a normal situation. He's not a family man.

I talked to a nurse who had been dating him off and on, and she left town. And she went to Florida. She was afraid of him. He found her condo. She said she came home and found that he'd broken in there. He took all of her clothes that he had purchased for her and threw them into a bathtub and then urinated on them.

As an indication that, I guess, that you didn't stay around with me, but I picked up another girl, that type of thing. This is how bizarre he is. I mean, he's got a real deep, deep problem.

I called the Navy investigators in the Pentagon, and they looked him up and... And what did he do? Nothing. He never set foot on a boat. He couldn't fly. His whole life is a lie.
