No, that's what, honestly, Emery, that's what made this story unusual and very satisfying. It's rare that a story develops in front of our eyes. But when we start on a missing persons case, the family may have very definite ideas about what happened, but we have to be more careful. There was no evidence of a crime. There was no evidence of a crime scene.

Even though it did seem after that much time hard to believe that she had simply disappeared and gone somewhere else. I think a missing persons case is tougher to report because we have to be very skeptical.

The other thing, though, about covering this case, and both Sarah and I agree on this, we realize that there's emotions and a poignancy that you don't always encounter in a homicide case, a case that has already been declared a homicide. In this case, the family members were absolutely convinced that Dee had been murdered, but they still had that question. Maybe she was out there.

I think one of the reasons why the family was so open with us was because 48 Hours had started on this story pretty early. We have a development producer by the name of Cindy Caesar who really, about a year after Dee disappeared, had reached out to the family and spoke with them frequently and stayed in touch with them.

And I think it really opened a lot of doors for me when I came and sat down with these family members.

And everyone said this, that Dee Warner was a nonstop texter. This was a woman who, if you didn't respond to a text, she was sending you another. Everyone said that. And so while there was certainly some evidence that she had disappeared on her own, I should point out, and you hear this in the hour. Her hair iron was missing. Curling iron. Yeah, curling iron was missing.
