My focus was, my staff's focus was, we gotta find Orlando. We have information Orlando's sister had originally contacted Binghamton University Police the morning of March 9th to say that she had received an alarming text message from her brother Orlando. And this is before. Haley has been found deceased.
In that message, he had made statements that he was a failure, that he left his car at JFK Airport. And Binghamton University Police contacted us. I reach out to some law enforcement partners at that point, specifically the local FBI agent, to say, can you check to see if he has boarded a plane? And I was notified that Orlando had boarded a flight to Nicaragua.

And Orlando was no longer in the United States. We've had suspects flee on us before, whether it be to New York City or Florida. In my 24 years, this is the first time that I've ever dealt with a case where we've had a suspect flee the country.

Flight is, in my mind, in my experience, is a pretty clear sign of guilt.

Orlando fled the United States, but we had to still move forward. At that point, I was confident he's the guy that we want, but now my staff had to collect the evidence to prove that he's the guy that we wanted.

We retrieved video from the residence at 23 Oak Street, and basically we're going to track every move that we can, whether through video, credit cards, whatever we can do to kind of follow Orlando's movements. Upon reviewing the video from 23 Oak Street, Orlando was seen leaving his residence at 23 Oak Street around 2.30 in the morning.

on the 8th, he returns at around 3.30 in the morning with Hallie. They're seen on video walking in together. The one thing that's important to note that after that 3.30 timestamp on the 8th, Hallie's never seen again. She's seen walking in, but she's never seen leaving the residence. Orlando, on the other hand, is seen numerous times coming and going from the home. At around

say 8.30 at night on the 8th, he's clearly packing his car with luggage and goes. That night, Haley is due to meet her friends at a poetry reading, and she never arrives to meet them.

again putting those pieces of the puzzle together it's reaffirming kind of what we knew but what greater power is than the video evidence of two people walking in and only one person walks out we actually sent guys down to jfk airport port authority police brought us over to the terminal

They were able to pick him up actually walking in to the terminal on security cameras. And immediately you saw the head bandage around his head. Pretty telltale because that kind of just confirmed what we thought from the scene about a possible attempted suicide. They were able to track him throughout the airport from the time he got there till the time he boarded the plane.
