Chapter 2: What happened to Anggy Diaz in Waller County?
Deputies were already en route. Still, more surprises were waiting on Oak Hollow Boulevard.
Oh, Constable, thanks for coming. Who you got detained? Emergency. Sir? Emergency. Oh, emergency. Okay. Okay.
The lead deputy assessed the scene. Jared was already in the back of a patrol car. His mom Lynn was weeping on the front lawn. His father Rodney paced back and forth when he wasn't seated on his riding mower. Other deputies kept them separate and took all of their phones. The lead deputy had the big picture, but the lead paramedic filled in the details.
The responding deputy thought he knew exactly what this was.
That redhead boy. He'd seen him before. But as the scene unfolded, something didn't sit right. What they found inside that small apartment was worse than anyone expected. And the truth was far stranger than the assumptions that had brought them there. Whatever happened wasn't just violent. It was something deeper. It was something harder to name.

Chapter 3: How did Anggy Diaz's family describe her life before the tragedy?
But interviews with the parents would shed light on Jared's recent behavior. He'd been acting unusual for some time. But the day of the murder, all the parents' worries would come to a head.
I think it was around noon when Jared came in and told me that we needed to go to a Houston store. He gave me the store number. I kept telling him, that doesn't tell me anything. I don't have an app to look up store numbers like you do because I don't work for an app. You have to give me an address so I know where we're going. He said, it's Houston. I said, Houston's fairly large.
It doesn't tell me shit. He went back there and his mother was asleep and he came back. And that's when I stopped him and cornered him and he heard where we were going and stuff. I don't think he was going to talk to me at all. I don't get the impression that he was there to talk to me. I got the impression he was there to talk to us about it. And then I asked him, what does he need?
He told me he needed his gun. What did you tell him? Told him you're not getting that gun back right now or you're like this. I said, what do you need your gun for? And he did this.
Already suspicious of his behavior, there was no way Rodney was going to give Jared his gun. When he asked him what he needed it for, he pantomimed putting the gun up to his own head. But then quickly tried to play it off like he was just scratching an itch. Odd, for sure.
I just need it. And I said, actually, I now want to work his mother up. And I started asking her, who do we call? Do we take him to the hospital? Do you want to go to a hospital? Do you want to go to a mental hospital? What do you want to do?
And that started the conversations, and I laid down, and the next thing I know, I woke up, and my wife was yelling at him from our bedroom to the hall bathroom, the common bathroom, because she heard him on the phone, and that was around 4, 4 p.m. today. And then his behavior just kept getting weirder and weirder and weirder. From 1 o'clock on? Yeah. He just wouldn't answer my questions.
I said, Jared, do you need me to take you somewhere? Do you need me to talk to someone? And then I just found him sitting in the bathroom on the toilet. He's looking at his phone. And then he's talking to someone. And I said, well, who are you talking to? And he wouldn't, like, answer me. He said, that was my boss. I said, well, you didn't say much. I said, what does he want?
I mean, he was giving me my instructions for tonight's job. And then he came in my bedroom, because I asked him, Jared, come here, because he wouldn't answer my questions. I heard a phone ring from the bathroom, and I was like, whose phone is that in the bathroom? He's like, well, I have two phones. And then I said, why do you have two phones? And then he goes, no, I only have one phone.

Chapter 4: What were the circumstances surrounding Anggy's marriage to Jared Dykus?
What happened? You said you were on drugs. Okay. But that didn't tell us what happened in that room. What was going on? Just drugs and you got to stay away from drugs. Well, I understand that. So you did it and tell us what happened after you did it. Drugs just make you go crazy. It makes you lose sight. It makes you not be able to see straight. Alright, so what did it make you do this morning?
Last night?
Jared was blaming the whole thing on drugs, but he was reluctant to be specific about what he did or why. Sometimes he would just stare back at the detectives, refusing to say a word. He would look as though he was about to cry, then return to a dazed and confused state.
That's clear. We're not asking for generalities. We're not asking about your personal relationship with God. Obviously, it's a struggle. It's a struggle for everybody. That's not a question. Nobody has a perfect relationship with him. But we're going to ask you one last time what happened. And if you don't want to talk about it, that's fine.
But your opportunity to have any kind of looking like a good guy, of this is what I did and I'm sorry and I can't believe I did it, that door is closing on you. Look, I didn't do it. You can't even keep it straight for anybody.
This dude cracks a joke? It was hard to gauge where his head was at. Almost crying one moment, stoic the next. Then, making jokes.
I'm crazy. I was just up too long. So what did she say to make you mad to do that to her? She had to say something? To be that mad to do what you did? Okay, so it did. So it made you do what? What did it make you do?
Jared was speaking in broken sentences it was hard to follow his train of thought but he said that something took control of him something on the screen was telling him what to do and it would stop time He claimed he wasn't in control of himself.
I was being forced. None of my free will. Okay, forced to do what? Forced to just walk, forced to go. Okay, what did it force you to do to her? What did it force you to do to her? It forced me. To what? To kill her. So how did you kill her? Tell us how you killed her. I don't know because it wasn't Jeremy's. He tried to explain that when he got home, Angie turned on the TV.
