But this is really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Rick Ennis, because the more police keep digging, the more they realize Lori clearly had no idea who she was friends with. So, I'm going to jump back into Rick's past now. It's 1993 in Montgomery, Alabama. On March 5th, a police dispatcher gets a call from a random driver saying a car appears to have driven off the highway.
It struck a fence, so they should send someone out to make sure everyone's okay. And then a state trooper named John Clark is sent to this scene. And as he gets there, his headlights shine on what appears to be a boy, like not much more than 12 years old. So the state trooper Clark gets out and asks the 12-year-old if he's okay.

And the boy says he's fine, but then tells the state trooper, I've actually stolen my parents' car. So Clark searches the kid's backpack, which the kid is cooperative about.

Now Clark's like, all right, kid, you're going to have to come down to the station with me so we can call your parents.
