But when police find a dead body in her garage, the case takes an unexpected turn. She was laying on her side. with a dead dog behind her. As they search for the truth, detectives unravel a tightly wound mystery. I observed two trash cans. There were notes that were attached to the trash cans.
The notes talk about what you're gonna find. You're gonna find Two females. This is what you're supposed to do with the bodies.
Possibly we had two sisters, each of whom wanted to die. The investigation reveals evidence of a more sinister plot.
There was no indication whatsoever that she wanted to end her life.
So, was this a tragedy or an expertly crafted murder? Did she accidentally survive or did she produce this scene and plan to survive the whole time? I kept telling the detective that there's no way that she did this.
I get where you're seeing this from. All I can say is I'm the best person I know.
It's March 2015 in Studio City, California, an LA suburb that's home to some of the world's best-known TV and film lots. This quiet enclave of LA is disrupted midday when 911 hears from a concerned woman who just received a strange call from a friend. The Los Angeles Police Department received the nine one one call from Tracy She's concerned about a friend of hers who lives in Studio City. She may have had a stroke. She doesn't know what's going on, but she's spoken to the woman in peril and paramedics need to get to that address. The fire department uh arrived and they went through the front door. And when they went to the front door they found Joe Blackstone in a back bedroom. The woman Jill Blackstone is conscious but disoriented.
How did first responders discover Wendy Blackstone’s body and the strange garage scene?
Щед крол. From the front yard to her bedroom. When the fire department assessed her, I believe her speech was a little slurred. And she was talking slowly. Tracy said she thought she had had a stroke, but They did not find any evidence of a stroke. She really didn't give a clear explanation as to why. She didn't call nine one one herself. Though the woman's condition is not as dire as originally feared, those on scene sense that she is not alone. One of the paramedics notices that there's lots of dog bowls and lots of dog toys, uh, food bowls, and so he inquires. She tells them that they have three dogs. Those dogs may be in the garage with her younger sister, Wendy Blackstone. One paramedic stays with Joe Blackstone as the other paramedic walks over to a detached garage.
His eyes start to burn. He knows by just his experience that the burning of his eyes uh is probably some form of of gas or something burnt inside the actual garage. So he opens the main garage door. The light reveals a tragic scene. He observed Wendy Blackstone to be laying on her side. He went and checked for vitals and found that she was deceased. As responders take in the scene, they discover charcoal smoldering in a grill and the three family dogs. One dog was dead next to Wendy Blackstone's body. Two dogs were still in movement. see a dog deceased and dead like that and next to a body and a scene the way that Wendy Blackstone was I think it was very difficult to to see me see that. Detectives are called to the scene as first responders tend to Jill and the surviving dogs.
Tracy had gotten there right when they were taking Jill Blackstone out on a gurney to the ambulance. We didn't interview Chill at that time. Animal Reg came out and took those dogs to a hospital. One of the dogs had Um sort of arc shaped burns on his nose that were consistent with him trying to knock over the Weber girl, and it was knocked over. As detectives assess the scene for any signs that could have led to their deaths, they identify some troubling notes.
I remember entering the garage seeing Wendy on the ground. And dog next to her, the barbecue's still on and a big culprit could be carbon monoxide. And then we see these notes.
In front of a detached garage.
