You're tracking Christie's phone?

Yeah.

Is this an address that you recognize?

You blast out this address, and very quickly you get responses.

Yeah.

What are those responses?

So when you heard overdose, you immediately thought drugged.

Got a call at home, apparent overdose.

Christy, she was deceased.

People recognized this guy right away, and they were urged to call us.

And in November 2021, Detective Jonathan Vanderley and Detective Calvin Yu had to figure out why a lifeless woman was left at this emergency room.

This video from Southern California Hospital shows staff pulling a woman out of a black Prius and helping her onto a stretcher while two men look on.

When the stretcher moves into the ER, it becomes clear the car has no license plates.

Detective Vander Lee would later learn that the two men told the staff they found the woman, quote, passed out on the curb somewhere nearby, and they were trying to be good Samaritans.

They left without giving their names or phone numbers.

They were masked, disguised.

This must be adding up to something that sounds very sketchy to you.

Very sketchy, but then you still have to figure out if an actual crime occurred.

The woman was Christy Giles, and her mother, Dusty, will never forget the call that came from the hospital, telling her her 24-year-old daughter was dead from a drug overdose.

Two hours later, at a hospital just two miles away, a second woman was left at another emergency room by the same two men, also in a black Prius and wearing masks.
