Now, detectives had already done their background on Henry. He worked, wait for it, as a hot air balloon pilot. And by the looks of the house, the ballooning business was good. But there was evidence of some financial problems that had attracted the attention of the feds. And it appeared that he was currently on probation and still under investigation.

Henry was calm and collected and seemed to have the answers for all of the detective's questions. But he was prone to the one thing that is like catnip to a veteran investigator, oversharing.

You know, when you ask a question like that, normally the answer would be giving reasons why she would not be dead, right? Maybe she's with a friend and doesn't want to talk to me. Or maybe she's incapacitated lying in a hospital bed. Something other, Anastasia, than giving an indication that she may no longer be alive.

And that is partly due to one specific text message sent from Cassandra to Henry on the day she disappeared. a text message telling him their relationship was over.

But his story about a planned vacation, one from which she never returned, just seemed too implausible, especially for the mother of a child that was still nursing. And so with nothing more than a hunch that he was hiding something, Chad took a much deeper look into his suspect's life story in a search of hints that everything was not as it seemed.

Incredibly, Henry had never revealed to his close colleague, Nadine, that he even had a child. And apparently for a good reason.

And keep in mind, this big reveal happened just a day or so after Cassandra had supposedly left him. And immediately, Henry was disclosing with some pride, it seems, his daughter to his other girlfriend. Is that because he already knew Cassandra was never coming back?

So I don't know many hot air balloonists with a coffee business side hustle that require a chauffeur. But nevertheless, this Julian would prove to be a source of some critical information. Because on February 1st, just before baby Evelyn's birthday party, Julian remembered running Henry around town.

So Henry and Julian were up to no good hiding assets from the authorities and opening bank accounts behind the back of the feds. In fact, those multiple trips to Wells Fargo banks were an effort to deposit a large amount of cash without having to declare where the money came from.

Suana Seager, you know, as investigators always look to best ways to utilize as many tools as they can in a tool belt to get information. And here they have a situation where they likely don't have enough to even think about a search warrant for a crime like murder. But they need to get into his home to determine if they can gain any information that connects to Cassandra's disappearance.
