Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

Carrie, or the person, the imposter who was pretending to be Carrie, sent Dave about 15,000 email messages over a three-year span.

Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

So I thought, there's got to be a way we can track down this digital activity.

Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

Liz signed up for upwards of 20 or 30 fake addresses that say they're Carrie Farber, and there are different variations on Carrie's name or even her real email address.

Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

Every impersonated message, every text message, there's always a connection back to an account that she has, to a device that she has, or to her house.

Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

She was able to send messages pretending to be Carrie, and they would arrive while she was sitting on the couch next to Dave.

Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

It looked blank.

Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

If you plugged it into your computer, it would look like there was nothing there.

Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

But there was deleted information.

Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

That SD card, it turns out it had been in Liz's phone.

20/20
Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

And I wasn't sure what I was looking at first, but it turned out to be a human foot.

20/20
Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

What we discovered is that Carrie Farver had that tattoo on her foot.

Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

Liz Golier's charade was over.

20/20
Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

Carrie Farver did not voluntarily disappear and drop off the face of the earth.

20/20
Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

Very sadly, she was murdered.

20/20
Bad Romance: Tangled Web (Revisited)

It was important for us to clear Carrie's name because she was accused of stalking, she was accused of harassment, and she didn't do any of those things, and that's not who she was.
