What's your daughter's name?
My name is Slavomir Markowitz. I'm a retired sergeant with the English Police Department. I am originally from Poland and I have an engineering degree, but the police work was something that always fascinated me. So I applied to the English police department and I was hired. That was one of the happiest days in my life. I was at my desk in the homicide unit.
The officer told me that we have a case of a missing person, Samantha Koenig. She was supposed to get a ride home from her boyfriend. When he arrived, she wasn't there. The Anchorage Police Department were close with the FBI, and they offered their help.
James Koenig said that it would be totally out of her character to just walk away and not inform him. But on the other hand, it's a coffee stand right in the center of a big commercial area. It would be very unusual for someone to, you know, disappear without anybody noticing.
Several officers were at the scene. We searched the coffee stand collecting evidence.
It seems like Alaska has more than its share of missing persons cases. And a lot of that is not crime related, but just the wilderness.
During the winter, there are people that fall through ice on snow machines.
So we're wondering, who are these friends? What's her circle look like? Is there any truth to that text message?
The way the text was written didn't sound like Samantha Dalton.
It's 2012. It's not like 80s or 90s where you build your cases only by fingerprints and witnesses. You know, now you look for video evidence. That's the first thing you do. Later in the afternoon, when we finally had the video, we played it in the Cybercrimes Unit office. We all wanted to see that video. the lieutenant, the captain, patrol officers, and some detectives from my unit.
We played it time and time again.
At one point, she turns towards the window and she reacts.
She then walks across the coffee stand and turns the lights off. Samantha took the money from the cash register. Then Samantha puts her coat on. That was the moment where a lot of detectives focused on. She casually pulled her hair from behind the coat and spread it around the coat. Some detectives were saying, well, look, she just behaves normally. There is no fear.
She's just getting ready to go out.
And then they both leave. They walk side by side through the parking lot. It looked like they both walked out peacefully. There's no struggle. We didn't know what to make of it.
He seems calm and she seems calm. Do they know each other? Maybe she took the money and just wanted to have a good time somewhere. Did she leave willingly? Did she not leave willingly? Also, right next to the light switch, there's an alarm. If she was in danger, why didn't she hit the alarm? She had a perfect chance to press the alarm button. She didn't do that.
As we were analyzing the video, we focused on the moment that she walked out with somebody.
And that was about 8.20 p.m.
But when we looked at that video for a longer time... We noticed that there was like a light showing up on the counter. The light would come on and then it would disappear. So we thought that it could be a phone. And then we looked further at the video and I was surprised. We saw that after 11 p.m. the person came to the coffee stand. That person was wearing
headlight, you know, like right in the center of the head. He spent some time in the coffee stand looking for something.
