<i>What I know now</i>

2
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,120
<i>is that there were a lot of people
out there that loved Robby.</i>

3
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,480
<i>I loved him, too,
because he was wonderful.</i>

4
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,200
It's not fair that Robby is not here.

5
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:03,720
He was only 25...

6
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,680
and he had his whole life ahead of him,

7
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,560
but I made the choice.

8
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:11,320
I took his life...

9
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,360
and there's nothing I can do to undo it.

10
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,280
<i>This is a true story.</i>

11
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:32,960
<i>I'll start it off like that.</i>

12
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,280
<i>I just wanted to rebel.
I wanted to cause chaos.</i>

13
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,120
<i>I looked over at him.
We'll see who kills who, huh?</i>

14
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:40,520
<i>I made the choice.</i>

15
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:42,640
<i>I took his life.</i>

16
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,160
<i>It's something
that I never intended to do,</i>

17
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,440
<i>I wish I didn't do.</i>

18
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,560
<i>I knew I was gonna get out
of that car and murder those two men.</i>

19
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,040
<i>As he kneeled in front of me,</i>

20
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,560
<i>all I remember is pulling the trigger.</i>

21
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,040
<i>I'd killed them both.</i>

22
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,640
<i>I'd stabbed them to death.</i>

23
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,080
- Oh, goodness.
- Doesn't help.

24
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,400
It's difficult to get it
in the right position.

25
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:47,760
Yeah, it's weird.

26
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,160
My name is Lindsay Haugen.

27
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,080
I grew up in Portland, Oregon.

28
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,120
I enjoyed going to church.

29
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,200
Um, I loved to study the Bible
and I loved to sing.

30
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,040
In high school, I became very rebellious

31
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,880
and I started to do things
that maybe I would have said no to before.

32
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:31,400
I started smoking marijuana
and hanging out with a different crowd.

33
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:36,960
Around 15,

34
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,360
I started to run away from home.

35
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,200
I spent the rest of the time
in Portland, on the streets,

36
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,520
living with a very rough crowd,
and I went straight from

37
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,040
trying marijuana a couple of times, to...

38
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,600
taking methamphetamines,
um, with a needle.

39
00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,800
And from there, it became...

40
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,200
heroin, and I realized
that I was addicted.

41
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,640
And I was probably 16.

42
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,040
One day,
I decided to take a pregnancy test,

43
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,320
and it turned out
I'd been pregnant for three months

44
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,000
and I had just turned 17.

45
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,560
I changed... I changed right then.

46
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,080
I stopped using drugs,

47
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:27,760
and I wanted to be a parent.

48
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:31,000
I wanted to do well,
and I wanted to take care of my son.

49
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,560
I loved basic training.
I loved the uniform.

50
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,800
I loved being able to do
more push-ups than the boys,

51
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,560
and it was probably
some of the best times of my life.

52
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,680
I met this man in the end of 2013.

53
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,600
He was in the Army as well.

54
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:16,760
Almost immediately,

55
00:05:16,840 --> 00:05:19,000
he was mean to me when he drank whiskey.

56
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,400
He would lose his mind over things
that didn't even matter,

57
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,200
or weren't real,
that he would make up in his head.

58
00:05:25,280 --> 00:05:26,960
He told me he didn't like my work

59
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,840
because there were
too many attractive men there.

60
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:34,280
And... I tried to tell him I'm used to it.
This is what I've always worked around,

61
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,080
and it doesn't affect me.
I don't even notice them.

62
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,520
But it didn't matter. It made him crazy.

63
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,840
He hit me while I was driving
a couple of times,

64
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,440
just trying to get me to say
what he wanted me to say.

65
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,360
He just wanted to hear me tell him
that I was not being faithful.

66
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,280
I remember nights of him
throwing me on the floor

67
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,080
and spitting chewed-up food on me,

68
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:04,520
pouring beer on my head...

69
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,000
Um...

70
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:07,360
raping me...

71
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,120
in all sorts of ways

72
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:14,720
and calling me dirty,
calling me names that I wouldn't repeat.

73
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,040
And it got worse.

74
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,640
I remember one time he...

75
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:28,880
He spit on me...

76
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:31,920
while I was in the bathroom.

77
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:33,240
And so, I stood up...

78
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,840
I knew he blocked the only way out.

79
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,080
And so, I lifted my arm to swing at him,
and he grabbed my hand.

80
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,880
And then he grabbed my other hand,
and he crushed them.

81
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:43,560
I screamed...

82
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,080
until he started mocking my screams.

83
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,720
And so, I stopped screaming,
and I looked him in the eye,

84
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,440
and I felt my hand break.

85
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:56,960
And...

86
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,520
he put me in a choke-hold.

87
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,240
I said, "If you're gonna do this,
please don't let me wake up,

88
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,000
because I can't do this anymore."

89
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,400
And so, he held me in that choke-hold,

90
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,680
and made me look at myself in the mirror
and said, "Watch yourself die."

91
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:22,960
And it went dark.

92
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,200
I found myself at home
with no one to talk to but my dog,

93
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,800
drinking... drinking a lot.

94
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,040
I would wake up and I would drink.

95
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,760
I would drink until I went to sleep
and I would wake up and drink again.

96
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,120
It felt crazy.

97
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,080
So, when I met Robby, I had just
gotten out of a tough relationship,

98
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,120
and he had just gotten out of rehab
in June of that year.

99
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,400
But I didn't know that.

100
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,880
What I knew was
that there was this beautiful smile

101
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,440
sitting in a big pile of empty beer cans
on the floor,

102
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,080
with no shirt on and dreadlocks.

103
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:44,160
And...

104
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,120
just very carefree.

105
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,320
He leaned back on his hands,

106
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,120
and he just went, "Hi," and...

107
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,080
there was just
kind of this instant connection.

108
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,880
Robby embraced
what he called a traveler lifestyle...

109
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,440
but he really lived it a lot harder
than a lot of people did.

110
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:13,880
He would hop freight trains

111
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,680
and ride to wherever they were going,

112
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,240
hitchhike, whatever it was,

113
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,800
just traveling, never really staying
in one place for a long time.

114
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,320
And I said,
"I'll give you a place to stay.

115
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,400
You don't have to do anything.
Just be here when I get home."

116
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,360
And he said, "I just can't stay
in one place any longer. I need to go."

117
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,400
I said, "Okay, I'll come with you."

118
00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:51,760
There were times when we'd be on the road.
I'd be singing to him.

119
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,200
He'd just look at me and say,
"I just love you."

120
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,320
And I just adored him.

121
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:58,560
He was my best friend.

122
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,240
And there were times
when I would expect him

123
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:11,960
to treat me poorly, or to accuse me
of something, or to think badly of me...

124
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,280
and he just wouldn't.

125
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,320
And... I treasured it.

126
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:22,680
I loved it so much.

127
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,560
But there was a time
when we were driving...

128
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,400
Um, I think we were in Montana
at that point, and...

129
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,400
I was looking at the scenery,
just enjoying it,

130
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,400
thinking, "Man, this is awesome,
look around us," and...

131
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,520
he looks at me,
and he holds my hand, and he says...

132
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,560
"I wish I could just be happy with you,

133
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,040
but I'm not.

134
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:54,920
And it's not you."

135
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:00,720
And it just crushed me.

136
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,480
He kept telling me he wanted to see
what the next life was like.

137
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,040
He was hurting.

138
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,880
He'd always be talking or motioning

139
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,240
as though he was shooting himself
in the head.

140
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,160
Talking about how he wanted to die,
about how tired he was.

141
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,760
And I just kept trying
to bring him back from that.

142
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,440
"Robby, you're better than that.
Robby, you have so much to live for."

143
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,560
I took it personally,

144
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,760
like I wasn't enough for him
to be happy with.

145
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,040
One day, he looked at me,
and again, he said, "Lindsay, I'm tired.

146
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:56,720
I don't wanna do this anymore.

147
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:58,360
I just wanna die."

148
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:03,400
So, I said...

149
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,040
"I know of a way to do it that won't hurt.

150
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,880
You'll just go unconscious,
and then you just won't wake up."

151
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,280
He looked at me,
his eyes sparkled,

152
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,480
and he said, "You would do that for me?"

153
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,480
And I said, "Robby, I love you.
I would do anything for you."

154
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:28,080
And he said, "Okay."

155
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,360
And that floored me,
and I broke down, and I cried so hard.

156
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,560
And so, he said, "No, no, no, no."

157
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,000
He hated to see me sad.
He hated to see me cry.

158
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,640
And so he held me and he said,

159
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,600
"No. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it.
Don't be sad. Please don't be sad."

160
00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:49,440
He just held me
and we slept that night.

161
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,280
And the next morning,
I woke up, and I said,

162
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,040
"I'm sorry I couldn't do that last night.

163
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,160
I didn't expect you to be so ready."

164
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:14,240
And he said...

165
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,960
"I couldn't have expected you
to do that for me."

166
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,160
And there, again, my heart broke.

167
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,040
I expected him to say,

168
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,360
"No, we were just drunk,
I didn't mean it," or...

169
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,200
you know, "I'm glad you didn't, because,
you know, today is nice," or something.

170
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:33,360
But, no, he said,

171
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,000
"I couldn't have expected that from you."

172
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,800
And so I just felt
like I'd let him down again.

173
00:13:56,560 --> 00:13:59,800
When we got to Billings,
we sat in the parking lot at Walmart.

174
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,200
We had wine to drink, enjoyed the sun.

175
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:10,720
And we got back in the truck,

176
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:13,600
and he motioned again...

177
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,160
that he was shooting himself in the head.

178
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:19,440
And I...

179
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:27,200
I... I just felt like I was
letting him down again, like I just...

180
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,120
I thought we were having a nice day,

181
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,480
but now here he is again,
just wanting to die.

182
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,480
And I asked,
"Is that really what you want?"

183
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:38,480
And he said, "Yes."

184
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,040
And I said, "Are you sure?"

185
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:44,440
And he said, "Yes."

186
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:46,680
So I said, "Okay."

187
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,360
And I sat on the center console,
and I said, "Come here."

188
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,200
And he came to me.

189
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,000
And I put...

190
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,400
my arms around his neck,

191
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,840
and then, he just bowed his head.

192
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,800
When I started,
I didn't feel like I could really do it.

193
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:34,360
I squeezed,
and I could tell it wasn't hard enough.

194
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:39,600
And so,

195
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,520
I put my other arm behind his neck

196
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,480
and squeezed until he was unconscious.

197
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,360
And...

198
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:53,320
...he shook.

199
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,240
I thought maybe he was waking up.

200
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,640
I thought
maybe he was gonna stop me.

201
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,960
But then he stopped. He stopped shaking.

202
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,240
And I knew I had to go.

203
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,320
And so, I buckled him in... and...

204
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,760
I went to drive out of the parking lot,

205
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,560
and I realized
I had no idea where I was.

206
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,000
And I...

207
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:30,840
I looked...

208
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,400
I looked to Robby
because he always knew where to go.

209
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:36,480
And...

210
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,400
And I said, "Baby, where do I go?"

211
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,480
And he looked like he was sleeping.

212
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,000
And I started to think about...

213
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,320
how I could get him back.

214
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,200
And I pulled into traffic

215
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,080
and crossed lanes
and got into a parking lot.

216
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,360
I unbuckled his seat belt,
and I put him on the center console...

217
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,440
...and I started doing CPR.

218
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,720
And I breathed into him,
and I could hear...

219
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,040
...like air was going in,
like something was happening,

220
00:17:10,120 --> 00:17:13,560
and I begged him, "Robby, please,
wake up, please, wake up!"

221
00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:16,120
And then, I heard a knock on the window.

222
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:18,960
And somebody said, "Excuse me."

223
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,160
There was a police officer.

224
00:17:25,120 --> 00:17:26,680
I just told him, "I killed him.

225
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:31,760
Please bring him back."

226
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,560
This is a good time.

227
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,400
There's Robby.

228
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,440
<i>My name is Dori Greeson,</i>

229
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,160
<i>and I was born
and raised in Tampa, Florida.</i>

230
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:27,920
I love this one.

231
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,160
<i>Robby was my son.</i>

232
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,680
I met my first husband, Bob Mast...

233
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,000
when I was 24.

234
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,640
We had our first son, Benjamin,

235
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,840
and then, we had our second son,
Robby, in 1990.

236
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,080
Robby was fun.

237
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,920
He was outgoing.

238
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,320
Of course, I loved him very much.
And he was so precious.

239
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,560
Well, my name is Gene,
and I actually became...

240
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,000
a part of this family in May of 1996.

241
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:12,280
I got to be...

242
00:19:12,360 --> 00:19:14,840
I'd been Robby's stepfather about, uh...

243
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,840
I guess, 12 years or so
before they left home.

244
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,240
And I thought we had a good 12 years.

245
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,600
I didn't know when I'd see him
again. I had no idea where he was going.

246
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,640
And Gene and I were standing on the road,
and I just collapsed...

247
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:55,040
in Gene's arms, because I thought,
"Where's he going? What's he gonna do?"

248
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,760
It was a year and, uh, 24 days

249
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:06,600
before we heard from him.

250
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,000
The reason we didn't hear
from him very often

251
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,040
was because he knew that his lifestyle

252
00:20:15,120 --> 00:20:17,000
would be painful to us,

253
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,720
especially if he called us
when he was drinking.

254
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,200
We'd be able to tell.
And he knew that would make us sad.

255
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,920
There was just so much we didn't know.

256
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,240
In May, he checked himself
into a alcohol rehab.

257
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,560
Got to talk to his supervisors.

258
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,920
Everybody said he was doing so well.

259
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,680
And so, we thought we would hear
when he got out.

260
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:58,560
We never heard from him again.

261
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,920
Next thing we heard was, you know,
four months later, he was dead.

262
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,360
It was September the 17th.

263
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:12,480
When the phone rang,

264
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,200
she just told me that Robby was dead,
just like that.

265
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,600
I was... Of course, I was shocked.
I couldn't believe it. What?

266
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,800
I just yelled and yelled.

267
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,480
I yelled for Robby, "Robby, Robby!
Come back! Robby, come back!"

268
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:30,000
As if he could hear me, and he would
come back. Just, "Robby, come back."

269
00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:37,120
And when I learned he had been murdered,
I was... I was upset

270
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,560
that somebody...

271
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,200
would... would kill Robby.

272
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,720
You know? Because he was a nice guy.
He was a good guy.

273
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,880
He was just a hurting guy.
I thought maybe someone just killed him

274
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,240
because they didn't think he was
worth anything. And I hated that.

275
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,160
Then I read about it,
and I saw that it was this woman.

276
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,400
And the paper said she was his girlfriend,
and I was like,

277
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,440
"No, no, no. Who is this woman?
And why would she kill Robby?"

278
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,200
<i>It's not every day that,
here in Billings, we have...</i>

279
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,640
<i>a female accused
of such a horrendous crime.</i>

280
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,240
<i>And not only that,
but one that would use their own hands</i>

281
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:43,480
<i>to commit that crime.</i>

282
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,760
<i>My name's Steve Hallam. I've been
with the Billings Police Department</i>

283
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,400
<i>here in Montana for roughly 14 years.</i>

284
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,360
When I had
Lindsay step into the interview room,

285
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,720
obviously, I kind of had an idea
of how Robby lost his life.

286
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,480
And it was just to figure out
what happened and why it happened.

287
00:23:12,120 --> 00:23:14,920
<i>And when did he start asking you
to end his life for him?</i>

288
00:23:16,120 --> 00:23:20,080
<i>- Probably about a week ago.
- How'd that conversation come up?</i>

289
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:26,240
<i>We drank a lot of wine, and we were drunk,
and he... he was just like, you know...</i>

290
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:33,040
<i>"I'm not happy here. I'm really not.
I just wanna die. I just wanna go away."</i>

291
00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:35,080
<i>And I was like, "Well, look...</i>

292
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,160
<i>...I am a big, strong girl,</i>

293
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,800
<i>and I can take you out, and it won't hurt.</i>

294
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,000
<i>I promise you.</i>

295
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:44,640
<i>Um...</i>

296
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,520
<i>And if that's what you really want,</i>

297
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,760
<i>I love you,
and I want to give that to you."</i>

298
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,800
Very rarely, if ever,
have I ever heard up until this case

299
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,720
somebody asking somebody else
to kill them.

300
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,280
I've been doing this job for a long time.
If somebody wants to end their life,

301
00:23:59,360 --> 00:24:02,640
there are plenty of other ways to do it.

302
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,320
<i>So, let's go back to, uh, this morning.</i>

303
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,200
<i>What were you guys talking about</i>

304
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,280
<i>when laying on the ground
in the parking lot</i>

305
00:24:11,360 --> 00:24:14,000
<i>- behind your Tahoe at Walmart?
- Nothing at all.</i>

306
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,160
<i>We were talking about getting more booze.</i>

307
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,080
<i>- Yeah? Just shooting the shit?
- Yeah.</i>

308
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,000
<i>No, just hanging out and making sure...</i>

309
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,400
According to Lindsay's testimony
up to this point in time,

310
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,360
they're intoxicated
and talking about how good things are.

311
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,200
And now, a couple minutes later,
we're inside the Tahoe.

312
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:33,000
Now, all of a sudden, she's saying
that Robby's telling her he's not happy.

313
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,880
He wants to die,
and he wants her to kill him.

314
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,440
It just, again, didn't make sense.

315
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:38,760
<i>Show me what you did.</i>

316
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,080
<i>I put him in a rear naked choke
like this...</i>

317
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:42,080
<i>Okay.</i>

318
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,040
<i>Until he, like,
he started seizing a little bit.</i>

319
00:24:45,120 --> 00:24:47,840
<i>And then, he passed out.
And I was like, "All right."</i>

320
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,520
<i>And then, once he was out,</i>

321
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,160
<i>I got in front of him
and grabbed his nose and mouth</i>

322
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,360
<i>- and, like, kept his chin shut.
- Okay.</i>

323
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,400
<i>And, like, he foamed at the mouth
a little bit.</i>

324
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,080
<i>Like, I kept thinking he was dead,
and I let him go,</i>

325
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,480
<i>and he'd fucking seize some more.</i>

326
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,800
<i>I'm like, "Robby, you really
fucking want me to do this?</i>

327
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,640
<i>Because I don't want to."</i>

328
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,320
<i>And he just kept putting my hand back.</i>

329
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,840
<i>And I'm like, "Okay, they're apart."</i>

330
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,680
That, right there, is an absolute lie.

331
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:23,560
If you listen to the video real carefully,
she states that he kept grabbing her hand

332
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,160
and putting the hand back on his mouth.

333
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:27,760
Well, if you're unconscious,

334
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:32,040
you're not going to have that ability
to grab somebody

335
00:25:32,120 --> 00:25:34,080
and put their hand back on your mouth.

336
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,840
There's no way that could have happened.

337
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:41,760
Every act that she's committing on him now
is at her own hand. That's it. Period.

338
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,200
<i>What were you planning on doing
with, uh, Robby's body?</i>

339
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:48,400
<i>Um...</i>

340
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,440
<i>I was having a hard time with that.
I mean, like, you know,</i>

341
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,760
<i>I was having a hard time
with the whole fucking thing.</i>

342
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:58,800
<i>But I was just figuring I'd find</i>

343
00:25:59,360 --> 00:26:02,560
<i>a scarcely populated area
and fucking dump him. I mean...</i>

344
00:26:03,120 --> 00:26:05,600
So, after she took the life from Robby,

345
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,280
she was going to find a place
to bury him, drop him off.

346
00:26:09,360 --> 00:26:13,280
And it seems like a total inconvenience,
from her, based on her testimony.

347
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,800
And then,
she's gonna go back to Washington

348
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,160
and act like she never even knew Robby.

349
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,440
So, that goes to show you
just how much she loved Robby.

350
00:26:23,120 --> 00:26:24,240
She didn't love Robby.

351
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,320
If she would have loved Robby,
she would have never done this act.

352
00:26:29,120 --> 00:26:32,040
<i>Even if he begged you to do that,
why did you do that?</i>

353
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,760
We're at the point where the interview
has turned from an interview

354
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:36,960
into an interrogation.

355
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,600
I was pretty stunned and shocked
what came out of her mouth next.

356
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,760
<i>Lindsay, here's the deal. I've been doing
this shit for a while, okay?</i>

357
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:46,760
<i>I buy how it happened.</i>

358
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:48,680
<i>I buy you guys were traveling.</i>

359
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,320
<i>I don't buy that he was unhappy,
and he begged you to take his life.</i>

360
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,920
<i>No, that's absolutely what happened.
That's absolutely what happened.</i>

361
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,680
<i>But yes, um...</i>

362
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,280
<i>I don't, I don't...</i>

363
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,360
<i>I just wanted to kill somebody
with my bare hands, honestly.</i>

364
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,800
<i>Well, then that makes more sense to me.</i>

365
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,880
That right there was stunning. Shocking.

366
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:14,680
I've never had anybody say that to me
in an interview room before.

367
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,680
<i>So, you just wanted to know
what it felt like to kill somebody</i>

368
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:19,960
<i>with your bare hands?</i>

369
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,040
<i>- Kind of, but no.
- Okay.</i>

370
00:27:22,120 --> 00:27:23,440
<i>It was also that he asked.</i>

371
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,280
<i>Hang on. One thing at a time, my dear.</i>

372
00:27:26,360 --> 00:27:28,840
<i>- You're making me out to be the bad guy.
- No, I'm not.</i>

373
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:30,816
<i>- I'm not a bad guy.
- Have I ever called you bad?</i>

374
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,360
<i>- No.
- Are you in handcuffs right now?</i>

375
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,880
<i>- No.
- Do I have, like, five guys next to me</i>

376
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:36,680
<i>'cause I'm scared shitless of you?</i>

377
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:37,800
<i>- You should be.
- Huh?</i>

378
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,000
<i>Just kidding.</i>

379
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:40,400
<i>- No.
- You know what I'm saying?</i>

380
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,560
<i>- I know.
- All right. So, you just came out</i>

381
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,000
<i>and you told me
you just kinda wanted to feel</i>

382
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,840
<i>what it would feel like to kill somebody
with your bare hands.</i>

383
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,000
<i>What is... What made you think like that?</i>

384
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,840
<i>Was it past experiences or what?</i>

385
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,440
<i>Well, my last fiancé,</i>

386
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,080
<i>he broke my hand like this.</i>

387
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,720
<i>And... and then he got...
You know what I mean?</i>

388
00:28:01,120 --> 00:28:03,720
<i>Just like I did to Robby,
and fucking choked me out.</i>

389
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:07,200
<i>I remember waking up on the floor
and it was like I was under water,</i>

390
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,800
<i>but I wasn't, and I knew he was, like,
he was smothering me, and, uh...</i>

391
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,720
<i>I guess I just wanted to do that back,</i>

392
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,240
<i>but not to someone so sweet like Robby.</i>

393
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,440
<i>He just...
He just wanted it to happen, so I...</i>

394
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:22,760
<i>I saw my opportunity, I guess.</i>

395
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:24,200
<i>Okay.</i>

396
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,840
"I saw the opportunity."

397
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,640
That's the whole case there.

398
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,800
Perfect opportunity. He can't fight back.

399
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,160
We're in an unknown location.
Nobody knows us.

400
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,720
I'm ready and willing. Let's get it done.

401
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,200
Let's... I want to take somebody's life.

402
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,800
From her own words. You can't contest

403
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,160
this video and what Lindsay says
in her own words.

404
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:56,920
I think Lindsay tries to paint a picture
of herself to kind of minimize

405
00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,400
who she really truly is.

406
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:07,240
She is a deliberate homicidal killer.

407
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,480
Let's see what we got here.
So, there is a seven o'clock call,

408
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,840
- which is nine o'clock.
- Does it say 7:00? Where?

409
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:41,440
- Yeah, here, at 7:00.
- Got it.

410
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,000
Nine o'clock our time.

411
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:45,840
- Oh, 'cause we're gonna do two.
- We'll do two calls in a row.

412
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,520
<i>Dori and I have been
ministering in prisons</i>

413
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:54,040
<i>for at least 14 years,
and most of them that we have met</i>

414
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,640
<i>are not the same person they were
before they went to prison.</i>

415
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,800
<i>So, we have compassion</i>

416
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:06,160
<i>for those people who have lost
their freedom due to their own stupidity</i>

417
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:07,840
<i>and own bad choices.</i>

418
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,520
Let's be quiet,
because she could come on.

419
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:11,840
- Hi.
<i>- Hi, guys.</i>

420
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:13,920
Hi. Oh, you did good.

421
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,520
- So, did you have...
<i>- Okay.</i>

422
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:16,960
Did you leave early?

423
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,080
<i>No, we all left at the same time,
but there was somebody on the phone,</i>

424
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:22,600
<i>- so, I had to take a walk.</i>
- Good.

425
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,800
- So, you didn't miss anything?
<i>- No.</i>

426
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:29,000
I'm going to have to write you up
though, Lindsay, you were 50 seconds late.

427
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:30,960
- Oh, man.
- You need to work on that.

428
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,960
<i>- I was doing so good.</i>
- Yeah, you're doing so good. I know.

429
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:36,520
<i>Well, actually,</i>

430
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:40,680
<i>honestly, Friday, when Dori had
a hard time getting on the computer,</i>

431
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,240
<i>I was, like, 30 seconds late.</i>

432
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,080
- And I didn't know.
- You were? You're admitting that now, huh?

433
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:47,400
Yeah.

434
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:48,760
Tell us about it.

435
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,320
- How was your weekend?
- <i>It was amazing.</i>

436
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,600
<i>As the newest girl in choir,
I'm really enjoying it.</i>

437
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,520
<i>I was able to forgive Lindsay</i>

438
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,680
<i>- because I know I am forgiven by God.
- We asked the volunteer</i>

439
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,680
<i>if it was okay if we sang a song together.</i>

440
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,440
<i>To hang on to things</i>

441
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:06,760
<i>can bring so much resentment inside of us
that it can destroy us.</i>

442
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,280
How about you singing it for us now?

443
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:11,360
Can you do that?

444
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,280
<i>- Oh, okay.</i>
- It's been a while since I've heard it.

Thank you, Lindsay.
We love hearing you sing,

455
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,240
and let's say our goodbyes.

456
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:57,400
We love you. Bye.

457
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,040
Call us anytime. Bye.

458
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,440
<i>I think it's important
to get the message out</i>

459
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,920
<i>about forgiveness,
both receiving it and giving it.</i>

460
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,400
In the beginning,
I think our forgiveness was real.

461
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,920
I think what we didn't have
and what you see now

462
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,040
is we didn't have a love for Lindsay.

463
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,360
I mean, how could you, you know?
As I've said in my first letter,

464
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,120
I usually begin my letters
with "Dear Lindsay,"

465
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,160
but I certainly do not consider you dear,

466
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:42,720
given what you've done.

467
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,960
But then, it wasn't long in the letters
going back and forth

468
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,280
that I could say, "Dear Lindsay."

469
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,160
I did not expect this to go this far.
I just...

470
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,080
And I felt, you know, okay,

471
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,880
this precious human being is sorry.

472
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,240
She's got to pay for this in prison.

473
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,480
But the letters just kept going until now.

474
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,880
I wish you all could have
been there when Dori met Lindsay.

475
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,840
We were in a room, a visiting park.
They cleared it all out just for us.

476
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:26,200
So, Lindsay walks in.
We hear her steps coming down the hall.

477
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:27,280
The door opens.

478
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:31,760
She walks in. Walking towards Dori.
Dori walking to her.

479
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:33,200
And Lindsay says,

480
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,560
"I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry."

481
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:37,200
<i>And Dori says,</i>

482
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,960
<i>"I forgive you.
Lindsay, I forgive you. I love you."</i>

483
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:42,400
<i>And they hugged.</i>

484
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,200
- Oh, thank you so much.
- You're welcome.

485
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:51,880
It was just precious,

486
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:56,560
and Dori knew then
her forgiveness was real,

487
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:57,960
her love was real.

488
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:02,960
Of course, I got to say,
Lindsay has brought me a lot of joy

489
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,000
in how she's responded.

490
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,720
♪ <i>You're my friend ♪</i>

491
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:11,840
<i>♪ And you are my brother even though... ♪</i>

492
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,240
The person who took my son's life...

493
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,280
<i>♪ You are a king... ♪</i>

494
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,280
Her just saying, you know, "I'm so sorry,"

495
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,480
and receiving our forgiveness.

496
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:26,440
She's been an example
of how I need to be with my savior,

497
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:27,960
the one who's forgiven me.

498
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:31,160
♪ <i>...desire and I long ♪</i>

499
00:34:31,240 --> 00:34:35,760
<i>♪ To worship thee... ♪</i>

500
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:02,120
This right here...

501
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:28,640
<i>So, you spent Friday afternoon
in Missoula with, uh, Robby, Robert Mast,</i>

502
00:35:28,720 --> 00:35:31,280
<i>and the girl he was with, Lindsay.</i>

503
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:35,320
<i>She was pretty intense.
They both definitely had been drinking.</i>

504
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,760
<i>Like, she was really, really about him.</i>

505
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,960
<i>It was like, "Oh, I'm in love with Robby.</i>

506
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,560
<i>I really care about him.
I really like him."</i>

507
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,600
<i>But they hadn't really known each other
that long.</i>

508
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,000
You know somebody for four weeks,

509
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,760
and now, he just out of the blue says,
"You know what?

510
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,920
I've known you for four weeks.
You seem like a great gal.

511
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,280
I don't want to live anymore.
Would you mind killing me?"

512
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:26,360
Doesn't... No way.
It did not happen like that.

513
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:32,600
<i>He was talking about his ex a lot,
Kate, who's a mutual friend of ours,</i>

514
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:37,200
<i>and that seemed to really piss her off.
They were together for years,</i>

515
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,640
<i>and had something really strong,
even though they spent time apart.</i>

516
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,720
<i>That's kind of what he was saying,
that he missed Kate.</i>

517
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,560
<i>You know? It was apparent.
He kept talking about her.</i>

518
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,480
<i>And, uh, Lindsay seemed
pretty annoyed with that.</i>

519
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,760
<i>Why do you think Robby was
with this Lindsay girl?</i>

520
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:54,640
<i>Um...</i>

521
00:36:54,720 --> 00:36:57,360
<i>I don't know. She had a vehicle.
It's a ride.</i>

522
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,520
<i>They were talking about
going up to the northeast.</i>

523
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:02,600
<i>I know that's the area Kate was in, too.</i>

524
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,440
<i>Maybe he kind of had ulterior motives,
and maybe she was figuring that out.</i>

525
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,560
That jealousy deep inside her,
knowing that...

526
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,120
she loved Robby way more
than Robby loved her,

527
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:17,600
if he even did at all.

528
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,160
And he was using her
to get back to the love of his life, Kate.

529
00:37:21,240 --> 00:37:24,120
I think that was kind of fuel on a fire.

530
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:28,040
And it was a perfect storm
up there in the Walmart parking lot

531
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:29,480
in Billings, Montana.

532
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,200
When others would say to me,

533
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,880
"I would never be able to forgive someone
who killed my child,"

534
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:25,440
I felt they were saying it
like I was betraying him.

535
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,280
And I do understand, uh, people who have

536
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,520
a hard time forgiving or even those
who haven't forgiven Lindsay.

537
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,840
We are confident as we could be
about anything in life

538
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,120
that what Robby would want us to do

539
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:44,800
is to forgive Lindsay.

540
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,320
You know, I know there are some
who doubt whether Lindsay

541
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,120
is being totally honest,

542
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:55,080
and I don't have any problem
accepting Lindsay's story.

543
00:38:55,160 --> 00:39:01,000
The bottom line is, let's say that it was
premeditated with malice and so forth.

544
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,240
I still believe our place is
to forgive her.

545
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,520
She should have taken him to a hospital,

546
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,800
and he should have gotten
the help he needed.

547
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,120
I know it. Gene knows it. She knows it.

548
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:20,720
She's expressed that to us.

549
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,640
But I don't make any excuses
for what she did.

550
00:39:23,720 --> 00:39:24,760
I just know

551
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,280
that redemption is real.

552
00:39:32,240 --> 00:39:35,200
We believe that who Lindsay is becoming,

553
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,160
the life that Lindsay is living

554
00:39:38,240 --> 00:39:40,680
helps to give Robby's life purpose.

555
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:45,240
And in saying that, I guess you'd say
helps to give Robby's death purpose.

556
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:04,080
<i>People hear the story,
and they think that Dori is maybe damaging</i>

557
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,960
<i>her son's memory
or disrespecting his memory</i>

558
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:08,720
<i>by being friends with me.</i>

559
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,280
<i>I understand
where they're coming from.</i>

560
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,160
<i>I know it's a hard thing to grasp.</i>

561
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:26,320
<i>But I can't help think
that Robby would have wanted it this way.</i>

562
00:40:55,240 --> 00:41:00,960
I guess my relationship with Dori and Gene
could be seen as beneficial to my parole,

563
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:05,040
but... that is not something
that I'm concerned with.

564
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:08,040
Do I hope I get out someday?
Yeah, absolutely.

565
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:12,800
But I believe that God has me here
for a reason.

566
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:14,400
And if he...

567
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:19,120
wants me to stay here for all 60 years,
then I'll stay here.

568
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,600
I don't know that Robby felt
as strongly as I did

569
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,560
about me, as I felt about him.

570
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:39,400
I had barely met him.

571
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,680
We talked a lot, and we were very close,

572
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,360
but I didn't even know...

573
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:51,120
what his mom was like
or that he had a stepdad.

574
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,600
When I first started hanging out
with Robby,

575
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,520
he was talking about going
to the beet harvest

576
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:58,000
and getting back with Kate.

577
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:02,120
And we met some of Robby's friends
along the way in Missoula,

578
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,840
just a few days before his murder,

579
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:08,240
and they all spoke very fondly of Kate.

580
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,240
It was something that made me jealous.

581
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,520
It made me feel very hurt
and very insignificant.

582
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,000
And, um...

583
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:19,040
it was something that Robby
and I actually had a fight about.

584
00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,560
And so, we did have that talk.
We did have that fight.

585
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:26,720
It doesn't surprise me at all that people
think he was still going to meet Kate,

586
00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,400
because that was probably
the last anyone heard of him.

587
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,640
But he expressed
that he wanted to stay with me,

588
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:34,760
and I believed him.

589
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:38,560
I still believe that he meant it.

590
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:45,920
So, just listen to it?

591
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:51,160
<i>I buy how it happened.</i>

592
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,040
<i>I buy you guys were traveling.</i>

593
00:42:53,720 --> 00:42:57,280
<i>I don't buy that he was unhappy,
and he begged you to take his life.</i>

594
00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,640
<i>No, that's absolutely what happened.</i>

595
00:42:59,720 --> 00:43:02,560
<i>That's absolutely what happened.
But yes, um...</i>

596
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:09,160
<i>I just wanted to kill somebody
with my bare hands, honestly.</i>

597
00:43:09,240 --> 00:43:11,360
<i>Well, that makes more sense to me.</i>

598
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,120
I haven't heard that clip in a long time.
I'm shocked by it.

599
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,440
Um, I'm embarrassed.

600
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:24,760
I'm ashamed.

601
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:30,080
And I'm sorry that my attitude
was so flippant.

602
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:31,520
It's appalling.

603
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,200
I said I just wanted to know
what it felt like

604
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,760
to kill someone with my bare hands,
because...

605
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,160
I was getting called a liar again.

606
00:43:41,240 --> 00:43:43,440
And in the relationship before Robby,

607
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:48,040
I was being called a liar all the time
when I was being honest.

608
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:52,120
And I found that the easiest way

609
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:54,640
to stop being called a liar

610
00:43:55,480 --> 00:44:01,040
is to tell the person calling me a liar
what it was that they wanted to hear.

611
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:06,760
For anyone who thinks that
that was something that I had...

612
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,360
looked for or planned for

613
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:12,360
or wanted to do...

614
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,280
I don't know that there's
anything I can do to change your mind,

615
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:21,640
but it's not true.

616
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:26,240
I've never wanted to kill anybody.

617
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:39,640
Once you've killed somebody,
you can't just feel normal.

618
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:41,880
I'm afraid to give somebody a hug.

619
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,920
You know, people look at my hands
like... Are they dirty?

620
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:49,080
Is there something wrong with them?
I kind of feel like they are sometimes.

621
00:44:55,920 --> 00:45:01,120
The only way, I think,
that I can really show how sorry I am

622
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:04,800
is to live a different life

623
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:08,080
and be the best person I can be

624
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,960
for Robby and for all the people
that I hurt by taking him.

625
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:15,800
If I can make a difference,
if I can do something good with my life,

626
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:19,720
it's like Robby's living on through me,
like Robby's life still has meaning.

627
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:20,880
That might...

628
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:25,080
never be enough, but it's all I can give.

629
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,960
And that's what I intend to do,
and that's what I do every day.
