Israel recognizes a military insignia Bill has in his home, evidence that Bill served in the same unit as Israel, the 25th Infantry Division. Israel lets Bill know he's a military man too. After about 15 minutes go by, Israel has the couriers put on slippers. He doesn't want them stepping on broken glass and leaving a trail of blood through the house.

They tell Israel he can take what little they have if he just lets them go. Their car, savings, all of it. And they won't tell anyone either. They won't call the police. Bill, they explain, has medications he needs to take. Israel tells them not to worry. He's abducting them for ransom. He's bringing them to a drop house where some accomplices are waiting. They won't be hurt if they cooperate.

They arrive at the farmhouse around 4 a.m., passing a police car parked about 100 feet away. There's a for sale sign in the front yard. The house is set back from the road on a hill, partially hidden by a tree. It's old and run down. A large hole runs through the roof and second floor, allowing moonlight into the living room. The walls are maybe stucco or plaster, covered in dated wallpaper.

There's not much by way of furniture, an old three-cushion couch, a couple of bare mattresses on bed frames. In addition to Lorraine and Bill, Israel brings a propane stove to the house.

He tackles her to the ground and drags her back to the farmhouse. The escape attempt makes him mad.

Things turn physical as Bill fights back. Bill actually manages to shove Israel a bit, and Israel's not sure how to handle it. As Israel tells the FBI, he had a very specific idea of how the night was supposed to go, and Bill was ruining it. Israel has to bludgeon Bill with a shovel more than once to knock him down.

with a 10-round magazine. The bullets hit Bill in his arm, chest, neck, and head, but he's still standing afterward. Israel says he's never seen anything like it. Then he watches Bill fall to the ground, dead.

He strangles Lorraine with a rope, his preferred method of killing. But before he does, he brings her downstairs so she can see her husband's grisly murder scene. Israel pours Drano over their hands and faces, puts them in trash bags, and leaves them in a corner of the basement. He'd planned to burn the house down using the propane stove he brought, but there's no time. The sun's already up.

So he takes what he can, forgetting the ammo shells on the floor, and drives away. He leaves their car, a green Saturn, in a parking lot about a mile from their home. He parks away from any surveillance cameras, walks to his own car, and leaves the state. Israel says the whole night, from start to finish, is over in about six hours.
