Raise your right hole, please. Do you swear or affirm? Do you tell us who you are?
I'm Collier Landry Boyle.
Can you tell us how old you are now?
I am 12 years old.
It's 1990, and we're in a courtroom in Mansfield, Ohio. The prosecution's star witness has just taken the stand. He's about to describe something that happened one fateful night a few months ago.
You awoke at 3 to 3.15 a.m., I believe was your time. Okay. And what awoke you?
I heard the two bangs and heard the scream.
Okay.

Chapter 2: Who is Collier Landry Boyle and what did he witness?
I said, hmm. Hmm, that's Dave's characteristically restrained reaction to any new suspicion. So Dave, now suspicious, decided he'd start looking into Dr. Jack Boyle. As it turned out, Dr. Boyle's patients really loved him. They described him as funny, intelligent, gregarious, caring.
The kind of doctor who'd go above and beyond, who'd make house calls and stay up all night at the bedside of a sick patient. Even at the police department, Dave discovered his fellow cops were fans.
Some of the guys that worked for me were ex-Marines. So they said, yeah, we know about Dr. Boyle. He's an ex-Navy doctor, retired Navy doctor, flew jets over in Vietnam. And he's just a great guy.
Plus, one of Jack's friends said he was devastated that Noreen left. She recalled Jack sobbing on the phone to her. She's gone. She's gone. And then Dave learned something that made Noreen's disappearance seem understandable.
Apparently there was some talk of divorce, but I didn't know exactly what the circumstances were.
In fact, Noreen had filed for divorce less than two months before. And it was contentious. There were fancy cars to fight over, a lot of money in the bank, child support, alimony, joint credit cards. Maybe Dave's original hunch had been right. In the midst of a rough separation, with both parties sleeping under the same roof, Noreen just needed a few days to herself.
Hmm.
And why did her son insist that something was wrong? Dave decided it was time to get more details from his prime source, the one inside the Boyle household. He phoned the private school that Collier attended and requested that the principal arrange a meeting. This is just what Collier had been hoping for.
I knew it was my chance right there to just get it all out, right? I don't know if I'm ever going to get this opportunity again.
