I think they were in a state of shock.

And I think at that point they were in a state of preservation.

Preserve that time so that cops, when they felt safe enough to contact them, could come.

And so what they did to make that place feel safe for Chris, they invited him in.

They offered him a drink.

I think they also cooked up some microwavable pizza, sat down.

The way that Jeff and Kim described it, they the entire time know he had just killed Angela Pritchard.

But Chris,

didn't act like anything was off, like it was just a normal night of catching up with friends.

And Kim was so she was so taken aback by how surreal this all was.

She secretly snapped a photo on her phone just to document it as they also contacted police.

At one point, you had Chris Prichard, I guess, so exhausted from everything that had happened, being on the run.

He passed out in a lazy boy reclining chair.

And he was still asleep when police eventually made their way to the property and carried out that arrest.

And long story short, that sets a really high bar to convict police.

You need to show an action.

And in a situation like that, it almost comes down to having a text message where a police officer is saying, we're friends with Chris.

Let's not arrest him.

Obviously, that did not exist.

When we spoke with Wendy, there was still this tremendous sense of guilt for not being there to do more, to protect.
