They'd been waiting for Brian and Denise to turn on each other, and now it had happened.

He decides to kill himself.

He writes 10 suicide notes to his various friends, family members, his father, his mother, his son.

And then he decides before he does it, he wants to face Denise one last time.

He wants to confront her one last time.

He gets very drunk.

At night, he goes to Denise's house.

He climbs over the gate.

He hides in her car, in the back of her car.

Denise is absolutely petrified.

She's screaming.

She throws her phone down.

She manages to swerve into the parking lot of a pharmacy, a big pharmacy, and she pulls up where she knows that there's a security camera.

She did not want them to ask him about the murder or to charge him with the murder because she knew that he would implicate her.

And the prosecutors came to him and said, look, you're going to get life without parole unless there's anything you want to tell us about Mike's death.

And at this point, Brian realized it was his only chance.

So Brian began to tell the story of what actually happened on the lake.

He and Mike went duck hunting, as planned.

They went out on the lake, as planned.

Brian asked Mike to stand up in the boat, as planned.
