MY FIRST NAME IS JOSEPH. MY LAST NAME IS SCHILLACI.

VERY PROUD TO SAY THAT I WORKED

WITH THE CITY OF MIAMI POLICE DEPARTMENT,

ROUGHLY 29 TO 30 YEARS OF SERVICE.

I WAS A HOMICIDE DETECTIVE FROM 2001 TO 2006.

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER ]

I'D WORKED THREE STRAIGHT DAYS.

I WAS MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY EXHAUSTED

AND EXTREMELY EXCITED ABOUT GOING HOME.

I GET A CALL FROM DETECTIVE RODRIGUEZ,

I KNOW YOU'RE TIRED, GOING HOME.

I GOT THIS. I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT."

OKAY.

HE'S IN A COURTYARD OF A HIGH-END APARTMENT COMPLEX

ON BISCAYNE BAY.

SCHILLACI, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I SAID, JUST GIVE ME A COUPLE OF MINUTES

TO SEE WHAT'S GOING ON, AND THEN, YOU KNOW, I'LL GO.

WHAT DO WE GOT?

IT WAS SURREAL BECAUSE YOU HAVE ALL THIS LIFE AROUND YOU,

BUT THEN RIGHT AT YOUR FEET,

YOU HAVE DEATH.

I PULLED THE SHEET BACK, AND I WAS IMMEDIATELY STRUCK

BY HOW YOUNG HE LOOKED.

AND I THOUGHT TO MYSELF,

WHAT WOULD BE SO BAD IN THIS MAN'S LIFE

THAT HE WOULD DO SOMETHING SO HORRIFIC,

SO DESPERATE, SO LONELY?

COME HERE. DID YOU SEE THIS?

BUT THEN I QUICKLY REALIZED THAT SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT.

THE LAST THING I WAS EXPECTING TO SEE WERE THE STAB MARKS.

SO THEN I KIND OF, LIKE, A STEP BACK EMOTIONALLY

AND STARTED TO REALLY LOOK DEEPER.

SCHILLACI ALSO SEES INCISED WOUNDS, CUTS IN HIS ARMS,

HIS HANDS, AND HIS WRISTS.

ARE THOSE DEFENSIVE WOUNDS,

TRYING TO PROTECT HIMSELF FROM SOMEBODY WIELDING A BLADE?

ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS WE LOOK FOR ARE THE FINGERNAILS.

HE HAD CHIPPED FINGERNAILS,

LIKE IF HE WERE STRUGGLING OR FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE.

I DON'T THINK HE JUMPED FROM THE BALCONY.

I THINK HE WAS THROWN FROM THE BALCONY.

ALL RIGHT, EVERYONE, COME ON, GATHER AROUND.

I TOLD EVERYBODY THEY HAD TO STOP WHAT THEY WERE DOING.

AND SEES 20 STORIES OF APARTMENTS.

WHICH ONE IS THE MAGIC ONE?

HE DOESN'T KNOW.

Schillaci: WHEN WE WERE OUT THERE IN THE COURTYARD,

WE NOTICED CAMERAS.

YEAH, WE GOT CAMERAS STATIONED ALL OVER THE PLACE.

WHO'S THAT RIGHT THERE?

WE ACTUALLY SEE A YOUNG WOMAN

AND HOW CAN SHE BE WITH THIS GUY

2 HOURS AND 10 MINUTES BEFORE HIS DEATH?

IS SHE PART OF THIS?

Schillaci: WE HAD TO FIND THAT GIRL.

SHE COULD UNLOCK A LOT OF UNANSWERED QUESTIONS FOR US.

Woman: WE HAVEN'T HEARD A THING.

-BANGING, SCREAMING, NOTHING? -NOTHING.

DURING THE CANVASS, I WAS GETTING EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED

BECAUSE WE WEREN'T GETTING THE HELP WE WERE HOPING FOR.

Schillaci: WHAT FLOOR YOU LOOKING AT?

UM, 13?

NO, NO, NO. IT'S 14.

I IMMEDIATELY REALIZE

THAT A PART OF A 1414 BELONGED TO OUR VICTIM,

JAMES GLASS, AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BUILDING.

SO NOW THEY KNOW WHO HE IS AND WHERE HE CAME FROM.

THE QUESTION REMAINS, HOW DID HE GET THAT WAY?

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER ]

Schillaci: SO NOW AT THAT POINT,

I KIND OF SAW OUT OF MY PERIPHERAL

SOME BLOODY DRAG MARKS GOING OFF.

SO I PEELED OFF FROM THE GROUP AND FOLLOWED THE BLOODY TRAIL

INTO THE BATHROOM.

Kenda: IN THE BATHROOM,

HE FINDS A BLOODY TOWEL ON THE FLOOR.

AND OUT OF THE CORNER OF HIS EYE,

HE SEES SOMETHING IN THE BATHTUB.

AND I COULDN'T BELIEVE THE HORROR OF WHAT I SAW.

I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER ]

♪♪

I JUST REMEMBER HOLDING MY BREATH.

I DIDN'T REALLY THINK

WHAT I WAS SEEING IS WHAT I WAS SEEING.

IT JUST -- IT WAS TOO SURREAL TO ME.

Kenda: IN THE BATHTUB IS A FEMALE

DRESSED IN HER UNDERWEAR,

AND HER HAIR IS MATTED WITH BLOOD.

SCHILLACI LOOKS AT HER AND REALIZES IT'S THE GIRL

FROM THE SURVEILLANCE VIDEO IN THE GARAGE.

THIS WOMAN'S NOT A WITNESS.

SHE'S NOT A SUSPECT.

SHE'S VICTIM NUMBER TWO.

JOSE!

I WAS SO SHOCKED.

JOSE!

I JUST COULDN'T GET PAST THE INNOCENCE

OF WHAT SHE LOOKED LIKE TO ME.

IT'S NOT THAT I'M JUST SEEING THE VICTIM

LAYING IN A BATHTUB.

I'M SEEING MY OWN CHILDREN.

SCHILLACI'S EMOTION WAS HINGED TO HIS FAMILY.

HE PICTURED HIS DAUGHTER IN THAT BATHTUB.

I UNDERSTAND THAT.

I'VE BEEN THERE, AND IT IS BEYOND UGLY.

Schillaci: AFTER GETTING OVER THE INITIAL SHOCK,

MY IMMEDIATE THOUGHTS WERE, WE HAD A DOUBLE HOMICIDE.

I NOTICE THAT THERE'S A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF BLOOD

COMING FROM UNDERNEATH HER CHEST.

HE SEES TWO STAB WOUNDS IN THE CENTRAL CHEST.

THEY APPEAR TO BE DEEP.

HE ALSO SAYS BLUNT-FORCE TRAUMA TO THE HEAD,

PRODUCING THE MATTED BLOOD IN THE HAIR.

SO HE LOOKS AROUND IN THE BATHROOM TO SEE

IF THERE ARE ANY WEAPONS IN HERE,

AND HE SEES A PAIR OF BLOODY SCISSORS ON THE SINK.

Schillaci: THERE WAS SOME HAIR

THAT WAS INSIDE THE FOLD OF THE SCISSORS

THAT LOOKED LIKE IT MATCHED BLACK HAIR OF THE VICTIM.

THEN I COULD SEE SOME BLOOD DROPLETS.

IT WAS VERY APPARENT TO ME

THAT SOMEBODY HAD STABBED HER WITH THOSE SCISSORS.

THERE WAS AN IRON THAT HAD SOME BLOOD ON IT.

IT LOOKED LIKE THE CORD HAD BEEN BROKEN OFF OF IT,

WHICH, IN MY LINE OF WORK,

THAT'S CALLED A CLUE, A BIG CLUE.

MOST LIKELY, THE IRON IS USED AS AN INSTRUMENT OF BLUNT TRAUMA.

BUT WHY IS THE CORD RIPPED OUT OF THAT IRON?

WAS YOUR ATTEMPT TO STRANGLE THE VICTIM WITH THAT?

Schillaci: AFTER BEING IN THAT BATHROOM

FOR JUST A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME,

I FOUND MYSELF LITERALLY IN HELL.

THERE'S A PURSE IN THE LIVING ROOM OF THIS APARTMENT.

AND IT'S BEEN DUMPED ON THE FLOOR.

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER ]

Schillaci: GOING THROUGH THE BELONGINGS,

WE WERE ABLE TO FIND IDENTIFICATION

THAT BELONGED TO 26-YEAR-OLD AMY HOYOS.

THAT WAS THE YOUNG LADY THAT WAS IN THE BATHTUB.

WE ACTUALLY FOUND A COUPLE OF CELLPHONES ON THE FLOOR,

AND IT LOOKED LIKE ONE OF THE CELLPHONES

MAY HAVE BELONGED TO AMY.

IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS PASSCODE-PROTECTED.

WE'RE GONNA NEED A WARRANT TO GET IN...

IF WE COULD JUST GET INTO THE PHONE,

THAT WOULD CERTAINLY UNLOCK A LOT OF CLUES OR INFORMATION

THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL IN THIS CASE.

ALL RIGHT, WHAT ELSE ARE WE LOOKING AT HERE, GANG?

Woman: RIGHT HERE, DETECTIVE.

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER ]

♪♪

WE DISCOVERED THERE WAS A BLOODY KNIFE.

OBVIOUSLY, THAT WAS GONNA BE A WEAPON THAT WAS USED.

THERE WE GO.

Kenda: SOMEONE IS MOTIVATED TO KILL THESE PEOPLE.

USE A BLADE OR A PAIR OF SCISSORS?

THAT'S BECAUSE YOU MEAN IT.

AND WHEN YOU'RE WORRIED THAT THE STAB WOUNDS

AREN'T GONNA WORK,

YOU HIT THIS GIRL OVER THE HEAD WITH AN IRON,

AND YOU THROW THE MALE OFF A BALCONY

14 STORIES ABOVE THE STREET.

YOU ARE DETERMINED THAT THESE PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE.

Schillaci: I WANT TO SEE IF I CAN GET IN TOUCH WITH THE FAMILIES.

ARE YOU OKAY TO PURSUE THIS?

YEAH, MAN, I GOT THIS.ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU.

WHAT IS GOING ON BETWEEN THESE PEOPLE?

WE NOW FIND THEM TO BE UNITED IN DEATH.

HOW WERE THEY IN LIFE?

FAMILIES ARE THE BEST SOURCE FOR THAT KIND OF INFORMATION.

-HAVE A SEAT. -THANK YOU.

I GOT AHOLD OF AMY'S FATHER FIRST.

IS AMY IN SOME SORT OF TROUBLE?

COULDN'T EVEN GET THE WORDS OUT.

I DO REMEMBER NOT BEING ABLE TO TELL HIM,

"YOUR DAUGHTER IS DEAD."

SHE'S GONE.

I CAN ONLY SAY, "YOUR DAUGHTER'S GONE."

NO.

[ SOBS ]

IT'S AN EXPERIENCE THAT I'LL NEVER FORGET

FOR AS LONG AS I'M ALIVE.

I KNEW, I COULD HEAR IT IN HIS VOICE,

HOW MUCH HE LOVED HIS DAUGHTER.

I JUST FELT LIKE I WRONGED HIM IN THE WORST WAY.

NO!

EVERYTHING THAT HE LIVED FOR, HIS MERE EXISTENCE,

IN A BLINK OF AN EYE WAS GONE.

GETTING THAT TYPE OF NEWS IS DEVASTATING,

IT REALLY IS, THAT YOUR LITTLE SISTER IS GONE.

I NEVER IMAGINED THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOULD HAPPEN.

Foster: AMY WAS A BEAUTIFUL PERSON,

BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT.

SHE WAS JUST ALWAYS THOUGHTFUL AND WANTED TO PUT PEOPLE FIRST.

SHE JUST HAD A REALLY KIND SOUL.

Shapiro: AMY WAS A RECEPTIONIST, AND SHE ALSO MAY HAVE DONE

A LITTLE BIT OF CLUB PROMOTING HERE AND THERE,

BUT IT WASN'T LIKE HER ASPIRATIONS IN LIFE.

SHE DID IT HAPPILY,

BUT SHE REALLY WANTED TO BE A FIREFIGHTER.

Foster: SHE WAS A TOUGH GIRL, BUT SHE HAD THAT SOFT HEART.

SHE ALWAYS WANTED TO CARE FOR OTHERS.

AMY WOULD HAVE BEEN AMAZING AS A FIREFIGHTER.

MR. HOYOS, WHAT CAN YOU TELL ME ABOUT AMY'S FRIEND JAMES?

DID YOU KNOW HIM WELL?

NO, NOT REALLY.

Schillaci: TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE RELATIONSHIP WAS

WAS VERY, VERY IMPORTANT.

FROM WHAT MY SISTER TOLD ME, JAMES WAS NEW HERE.

HIS FAMILY WAS FROM TEXAS.

HE DIDN'T REALLY KNOW ANYONE.

AND SO SHE WANTED TO BE A GOOD FRIEND TO HIM.

JAMES WAS A NORMAL GUY.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN AMY AND JAMES

WAS STRICTLY FRIENDSHIP.

THERE WAS NEVER ANYTHING MORE TO IT.

SHE'S A CARETAKER, SO, YOU KNOW,

SHE JUST KIND OF WANTED TO BE THAT FRIEND

TO KIND OF SHOW HIM AROUND THE CITY.

[ THUNDER RUMBLES ]

[ SOBBING ]

HEY.

I PROMISE YOU,

I WILL FIGURE OUT WHO DID THIS TO YOUR DAUGHTER.

Schillaci: AND I CAN TELL YOU ONE THING FOR SURE, FOR SURE.

I WAS GONNA GET THAT MAN ANSWERS.

I WAS GONNA GET THAT MAN ANSWERS.

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER ]

[ LINE RINGING]

SCHILLACI GETS IN CONTACT BY TELEPHONE

WITH JAMES GLASS'S FAMILY IN NORTH TEXAS.

Schillaci: I'M SORRY TO HAVE TO TELL YOU THIS,

BUT SOMETHING'S HAPPENED TO YOUR SON JAMES.

Schillaci: DEATH NOTIFICATION TO ME, PERSONALLY,

IS THE HARDEST PART OF THE JOB

BECAUSE YOU'RE ESSENTIALLY GOING TO A MOTHER OR FATHER,

BROTHER OR SISTER, AND YOU'RE TURNING THEIR LIVES UPSIDE DOWN.

WHEN I CALLED HIS DAD, I LEARNED THAT JAMES'S FAMILY,

THEY WERE THE REAL-ESTATE BUSINESS,

AND JAMES ACTUALLY HAD COME TO MIAMI

TO START UP HIS OWN REAL-ESTATE BUSINESS.

SEARCHING THE APARTMENT, THERE WAS SOME PAPERWORK

THAT WE FOUND THAT DEALT WITH HIM

TRYING TO START UP A REAL-ESTATE BUSINESS,

BUT HE DIDN'T COMPLETE IT.

WELL, WHAT ABOUT AMY?

DID HE EVER MENTION HER?

Father: YES.

HE BROUGHT HER UP A COUPLE TIMES.

JAMES'S FATHER KNEW VERY LITTLE ABOUT AMY,

BUT HE DID KNOW THAT JAMES REALLYLIKED HER.

HE LIKED HER SO MUCH THAT HE WAS SHOWING THE FAMILY HER PICTURE

AT A WEDDING THAT HE WENT TO IN TEXAS.

DID JAMES HAVE ISSUES WITH ANYONE THAT YOU KNEW OF?

JAMES' DAD SAID, NO, THAT HE DID NOT HAVE ANY ENEMIES

THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF.

WE'LL BE IN TOUCH AS SOON AS WE FIND ANYTHING OUT.

THANK YOU.

[ KNOCKS ]HEY. COME ON IN.

IT LOOKS LIKE THE LAST CALL ON THE CALL LOG

WAS FROM A LOCAL NUMBER.

THAT'S GREAT. LET'S TRY IT.

Schillaci: BEING ABLE TO GET THE SEARCH WARRANT

AND GET INTO AMY'S PHONE

WAS VERY INSTRUMENTAL IN THIS INVESTIGATION.

[ LINE RINGING]

WHEN SCHILLACI CALLS THAT LAST NUMBER...

Man: HELLO?

...A GUY ANSWERS IMMEDIATELY.

SCHILLACI SAYS, "ARE YOU A FRIEND OF AMY HOYOS?"

Man: WHO IS THIS?

THIS IS DETECTIVE SCHILLACI WITH THE MIAMI POLICE DEPARTMENT.

WHAT? WAIT. THE POLICE? WHAT EXACTLY IS THIS ABOUT?

HE KEPT ASKING ME QUESTIONS THAT I COULDN'T PROVIDE.

I CAN'T TELL HIM WHAT'S GOING ON BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHO HE IS.

SIR, DID YOU SPEAK WITH AN AMY HOYOS LAST NIGHT?

[ LINE DISCONNECTS]

HELLO!

HE HUNG UP ON ME.

THAT'S MAKING HIM VERY, VERY, VERY SUSPICIOUS.

SCHILLACI KNOWS IT'S TIME TO FIND OUT,

WHAT IS THE STORY WITH THIS GUY,

AND HOW DOES HE KNOW A GIRL THAT HAPPENS TO BE DEAD IN A BATHTUB?

[ LINE RINGING]Man: HELLO?

SIR, DID YOU SPEAK WITH AN AMY HOYOS LAST NIGHT?

[ LINE DISCONNECTS]

HELLO!

Schillaci: HE HUNG UP ON ME.

HIS BEHAVIOR MADE ME VERY WORRIED,

VERY WORRIED ABOUT HIM.

[ CELLPHONE RINGS ]

-WHAT DO YOU WANT? -SIR, DO NOT HANG UP ON ME.

I NEED YOU TO LISTEN TO ME.

Metz: I DID NOT RECOGNIZE THE PHONE NUMBER THAT CALLED ME.

I SAID, LOOK, I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE.

FOR ALL I KNOW, YOU KNOW, YOU COULD BE SOMEBODY CRAZY.

I SAID, "WHY DON'T YOU GIVE ME YOUR NAME, BADGE NUMBER,

AND WHAT DEPARTMENT YOU'RE WITH

AND LET ME VERIFY WHO YOU ARE?"

OUR POLICY IS THAT WE HAVE TO IDENTIFY OURSELVES.

SO I GAVE HIM MY BADGE NUMBER.

THEN HE STARTED TO OPEN UP AND SHARE SOME MORE INFORMATION

ABOUT HIMSELF AND AMY.

MY NAME'S ABE METZ.

Kenda: HE SAYS HIS NAME IS ABE METZ.

HE DRIVES A LIMOUSINE FOR A LIVING

AND HE DOES TAKE SOME RATHER WELL-KNOWN PEOPLE AROUND MIAMI.

Metz: BASED ON EXPERIENCE AND BACKGROUND,

I DID NOT WANT TO DIVULGE INFORMATION ABOUT

PEOPLE WHO I KNOW OR CLIENTS

TO ANYBODY WITHOUT FIRST VETTING WHO THEY ARE.

OKAY, ALL RIGHT, I UNDERSTAND THAT, ABE,

AND I'M SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION.

DO YOU THINK YOU CAN PLEASE TELL ME HOW YOU KNOW AMY?

AMY WAS A CLUB PROMOTER, AND I WAS AT THE TIME

WORKING FOR A LARGER LIMOUSINE COMPANY,

AND I HAD MET HER THROUGH HOTEL CONCIERGES

WHERE SHE WOULD PROMOTE THE CLUBS THAT SHE WAS ENGAGED WITH.

THE BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP THAT WE HAD

ENDED UP TURNING INTO A FRIENDSHIP.

ALL RIGHT, SO WHY WERE YOU IN CONTACT WITH HER LAST NIGHT?

DID YOU SEE HER?

SO AT THIS POINT, THE CASE GETS REALLY INTERESTING

BECAUSE THE LIMO DRIVER TELLS ME

HIM AND AMY WERE AT A CLUB WITH JAMES.

Metz: WE MET UP WITH JAMES...

THIS IS JAMES.

AND THIS ANOTHER GENTLEMAN NAMED JUAN.

JAMES JUST MOVED HERE FROM TEXAS.

-HOW DO YOU LIKE MIAMI? -IT'S AN ADJUSTMENT, BUT...

Metz: THERE WERE NO ISSUES AT THE CLUB.

THERE WAS NO INSTANCES OF ANY ARGUMENT OR ANY FIGHT OR SPAT.

-WHAT ARE YOU DRINKING ABE? -NO, I'M GOOD.

UH, EARLY MORNING.

SO ABE SAYS THAT HE DECIDED TO LEAVE THE BAR

BECAUSE HE HAD TO WORK THE NEXT DAY.

NOW I KNOW THAT JAMES, AMY, AND JUAN ARE TOGETHER,

ALL THREE OF THEM, AT THE CLUB.

-YOU KNOW JUAN'S LAST NAME? -NO, I DON'T.

I THINK HE SAID HE LIVES IN THE SAME APARTMENT COMPLEX AS JAMES.

LOOK, I CAN'T TALK RIGHT NOW. I'M WAITING TO PICK UP A CLIENT.

I GOT TO GO.ALL RIGHT. THANKS.

Schillaci: NOW I WANT TO KNOW WHO JUAN IS.

LET'S GO.

Kenda: SCHILLACI GOES BACK TO THE APARTMENT COMPLEX

AND ASKS THE RESIDENT MANAGER,

"IS THERE ANYBODY NAMED JUAN WHO LIVES HERE?"

WELL, THERE'S A GUY NAMED JUAN DIAZ

WHO LIVES ON THE 10th FLOOR.

HE'S 26 YEARS OLD.

THAT COULD WORK.

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER ]

PLEASE HAVE A SEAT, MR. DIAZ.

Schillaci: MR. DIAZ WAS COOPERATIVE.

HE COMES TO THE STATION,

AND HE GIVES ME A TAPE-RECORDED STATEMENT.

DURING THAT TAPE-RECORDED STATEMENT,

HE GIVES ME DETAIL AFTER DETAIL, A TIMELINE OF WHAT TRANSPIRED.

JUAN SAYS IT WAS ABOUT 3:00 IN THE MORNING,

AND THEY DECIDED THEY WERE GONNA GO HOME

AND CONTINUE TO PARTY.

HE TOLD US THAT WHILE THEY WERE AT THE APARTMENT,

AMY WAS UNCOMFORTABLE WITH MR. DIAZ

BECAUSE SHE THOUGHT HE WAS GONNA GIVE DRUGS TO JAMES.

SHE WAS TRYING TO HELP JAMES,

SO SHE DIDN'T WANT ANY DRUGS IN THAT APARTMENT.

SO SHE ASKED JAMES TO ASK JUAN TO LEAVE.

SCHILLACI LOOKS AT JUAN AND SAYS,

"YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'VE JUST TOLD ME, DON'T YOU?

YOU'RE THE LAST PERSON IN CONTACT WITH TWO PEOPLE

WHO ARE NOW DEAD AS A RESULT OF A VIOLENT ATTACK."

AND JUAN SEES WHERE THIS CONVERSATION IS GOING AND SAYS,

"NOW, WAIT A MINUTE. I WASN'T THE LAST GUY TO LEAVE."

THAT JUST ABSOLUTELY BLEW MY MIND.

AND I'M LIKE, "WHAT? DID I JUST HEAR THAT?"

BECAUSE ABE NEVER SAID THAT HE WENT TO THAT APARTMENT, EVER.

NOW SCHILLACI'S THINKING,

"WHY DID YOU FAIL TO TALK ABOUT THAT?

THAT'S PRETTY IMPORTANT, DON'T YOU THINK, ABE?"

Kenda: MIAMI HOMICIDE DETECTIVE JOE SCHILLACI

THOUGHT HE WAS CLOSE TO FINDING WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE

FOR THE MURDER OF JAMES GLASS AND AMY HOYOS.

Schillaci: YOU MIND IF I RECORD OUR CONVERSATION?

BUT NOW HE'S BEING TOLD THAT HIS PRIME SUSPECT

WAS MAYBE NOT THE LAST PERSON TO SEE JAMES AND AMY ALIVE.

AS FAR AS JUAN DIAZ AND HIS ALIBI,

WE WERE ABLE TO GO BACK TO THE VIDEO FOOTAGE.

AND LO AND BEHOLD, WE SEE HIM GET ON AN ELEVATOR

RIGHT AROUND 3:45, AND WHAT BUTTON DOES HE PUSH?

♪♪

THE 10th FLOOR.

Kenda: AND THE ELEVATOR TAPES DO NOT SHOW HIM

REGAINING THE ELEVATOR THE REST OF THE EVENING.

SO HE'S NOT THERE, LIKE HE SAYS,

CERTAINLY LEFT BEFORE THESE PEOPLE WERE KILLED.

AT THAT POINT, WE ESSENTIALLY ELIMINATED HIM AS OUR SUSPECT.

[ SIREN WAILING ]

SO NOW I NEED TO GO FIND THE LIMO DRIVER.

BECAUSE HE WAS THE LAST PERSON TO BE SEEN WITH JAMES AND AMY,

HE BECAME MY NUMBER-ONE SUSPECT.

-HELLO? -IT'S DETECTIVE SCHILLACI.

Metz: POLICE CALLED BACK AGAIN.

I MADE IT CLEAR THAT I COULDN'T MEET WITH THEM

OR TALK TO THEM FOR VERY LONG BECAUSE

I HAD A CUSTOMER COMING INTO THE VEHICLE

AND HAD TO TAKE THEM TO DINNER.

I'M LIKE, "I DON'T CARE WHERE YOU'RE AT.

STOP. I HAVE TO TALK TO YOU."

HE'S AT COCONUT GROVE FOR THE NEXT 30 MINUTES.

NOW IT'S ALMOST LIKE A CAT-AND-MOUSE GAME,

AND IN MY MIND, HE'S DODGING ME.

I MEAN, THE LEVEL OF URGENCY WAS INDESCRIBABLE.

[ SIREN WAILING ]

Metz: THAT NIGHT THAT THE POLICE TALKED TO ME,

IT FELT VERY UNCOMFORTABLE.

LISTEN UP, ABE, I'M GONNA ASK YOU THIS ONLY ONCE,

Schillaci: BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT HIM TO KNOW,

"YOU'RE MY NUMBER-ONE SUSPECT,"

BUT I ALSO WANTED HIM TO KNOW, "HEY, YOU GOT TO WORK WITH ME."

DID YOU GO BACK TO JAMES'S HOUSE LAST NIGHT AFTER THE BAR?

YEAH, YEAH, I DID.

ABE ADMITS IT. "YES, I WAS THERE.

I WAS THERE. I TOOK THEM ALL BACK THERE."

THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST TELL US THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE?

IT'S BECAUSE OF MY JOB.

Metz: IT WASN'T DONE SO MUCH AS TO HIDE ANYTHING.

IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE FACT

THAT I HAD IN MY CONTROL A COMPANY-ISSUED VEHICLE.

Schillaci: HE WAS USING THAT LIMOUSINE FOR PERSONAL SERVICES,

THAT HE WASN'T SUPPOSED TO.

Kenda: ABE'S EXPLANATION DOES MAKE SENSE TO SCHILLACI

BUT HE STILL REMAINS

THE LAST PERSON THAT SEES THOSE TWO ALIVE.

AND HE'S PHYSICALLY IN THAT APARTMENT.

Schillaci: AND I SAID, "TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED

WHEN YOU WENT BACK TO JAMES'S APARTMENT."

AFTER JUAN LEFT,

IT WAS JUST MYSELF, JAMES, AND AMY,

AND I WAS AT THAT POINT DRIFTING OFF

BECAUSE I WAS EXHAUSTED.

I HAD TO BE BACK AT WORK AT 8:00 A.M.

[ LAUGHS ]

AND I REALIZED THAT, IF I DON'T LEAVE NOW,

I'M NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO FUNCTION.

SO I MADE THE DECISION TO LEAVE.

-HEY, GREAT TO MEET YOU, MAN. -NICE TO MEET YOU.

GET HOME SAFE, OKAY?.

♪♪

NOW, WHAT TIME DID YOU SAY YOU PICKED UP YOUR CLIENT AGAIN?

I'VE BEEN WITH HIM ALL DAY.

I PICKED THEM UP AT 8:00 THIS MORNING.

SO THERE'S NO WAY THAT ABE COULD BE IN THAT APARTMENT

AT 9:00 IN THE MORNING KILLING PEOPLE

WHEN HE'S DRIVING A CLIENT AROUND BEGINNING AT 8:00 A.M.

THERE'S NO WAY MR. ABE METZ WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR DEATHS.

HIS TIMELINE MATCHES UP. HIS ALIBI MATCHES UP.

SO WE ELIMINATE HIM AS A SUSPECT.

SO IS AMY OKAY?

WHEN I FINALLY TOLD HIM THAT JAMES AND AMY WERE DEAD,

HE REACTED THE WAY I THOUGHT SOMEBODY THAT REALLY CARED

ABOUT THEM WOULD REACT.

HE WAS DEVASTATED.

OH, MY GOD.

Metz: I WAS SHOCKED.

I HONESTLY COULDN'T BELIEVE THAT SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAPPENED.

I'M VERY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

Kenda: WHAT DO WE DO NOW?

ABE IS NOT A SUSPECT IN THIS CRIME.

HE'S NOT EVEN A WITNESS TO THIS CRIME.

WE HAVE LITERALLY RUN OUT OF SUSPECTS.

Schillaci: WE HAD A DOUBLE HOMICIDE,

AND I SO BADLY WANTED TO KNOW WHO DID THIS.

SO I GO TO AMY'S FAMILY TO FIND OUT,

DOES SHE HAVE ENEMIES?

DOES SHE HAVE PEOPLE THAT DON'T LIKE HER?

AND WHAT KIND OF PERSON IS SHE

THAT WOULD ULTIMATELY CAUSE WHAT HAPPENED TO HER?

HONESTLY, IF I'M WORRIED ABOUT ANYONE...

...IT'S JAMES.

WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?

Shapiro: I HEARD ABOUT JAMES THROUGH MY MOTHER.

I BELIEVE MY MOTHER SAID,

"AMY IS KEEPING COMPANY WITH THIS BOY,

AND I DON'T FEEL GOOD ABOUT IT."

I NEVER ACTUALLY MET HIM,

BUT OTHER PEOPLE IN MY FAMILY HAVE,

AND THEY ALL GOT THIS REALLY WEIRD FEELING ABOUT HIM.

Kenda: SHE SAYS TO SCHILLACI THAT IT SEEMED TO THEM

THAT JAMES HAD A FIXATION OF ROMANCE WITH AMY

THAT AMY WASN'T RECIPROCATING.

SHE CARED FOR HIM, AND I GUESS HE PROBABLY TOOK HER GOOD HEART,

HER GOOD NATURE -- HE TOOK IT THE WRONG WAY,

THINKING THAT MAYBE

THERE WAS SOMETHING MORE THAN JUST FRIENDSHIP.

-DID YOU TALK TO AMY ABOUT THIS? -YES, WE ALL DID.

Schillaci: THEY URGED HER NOT TO HANG AROUND WITH HIM

BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T ON THE SAME LEVEL WITH EACH OTHER.

Shapiro: AMY SAID, "HE'S A FRIEND.

HE NEEDS ME. HE DOESN'T HAVE ANYONE ELSE.

AND I WANT TO BE A FRIEND TO HIM."

Foster: AMY'S THAT PERSON THAT SHE'S GONNA STICK BY YOUR SIDE.

SHE REALLY KEPT HER FRIENDS CLOSE,

AND, YOU KNOW, SHE'S GONNA BE THAT RIDE-OR-DIE KIND OF PERSON.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME.

I APPRECIATE IT.

SHE DOESN'T KNOW IF THIS INFATUATION

JAMES APPARENTLY HAS WITH AMY PLAYS A PART IN THIS CASE,

BUT HE KNOWS ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT IT COULD.

Schillaci: SO I WENT BACK TO THAT APARTMENT

BECAUSE THAT APARTMENT POSSESSED THE ANSWERS.

IT WASN'T AT AMY'S PARENTS' HOUSE.

IT WASN'T AT JAMES'S PARENTS' HOUSE.

IT WASN'T AT THE CLUBS.

THE REAL, REAL ANSWERS, TO ME, WERE IN THAT APARTMENT.

SCHILLACI STARTS LOOKING AT THIS APARTMENT

DIFFERENTLY THAN HE DID BEFORE.

BEFORE IT WAS ALL ABOUT PHYSICAL EVIDENCE.

BUT NOT NOW.

NOW HE'S LOOKING FOR LIFESTYLE INDICATIONS.

WHO ARE YOU, JAMES?

WHO ARE YOU?

EVERY SQUARE INCH OF THAT HOUSE I SEARCHED.

IN HIS BEDROOM,

HE HAD EVERYTHING STREWN ALL OVER THE PLACE.

Kenda: BUT THEN SCHILLACI FINDS

A PRISTINE DISPLAY OF CLOTHING, NEATLY PRESSED,

IT'S AS NEAT AS A PIN.

SO WHAT EXACTLY DOES ALL THIS MEAN?

THAT JAMES JR. HAS TAKEN ANTIDEPRESSANTS IN THE PAST,

THAT HE HAD A RECENT BREAKUP WITH A GIRLFRIEND IN TEXAS,

I WAS SITTING ON THE BED, AND A LIGHT BULB CAME ON.

IT WAS LIKE A HALOGEN LIGHT BULB.

THEY JUST LIT MY BRAIN UP.

HE'S GOT UNWORN SHOES, UNWORN SUITS IN ONE AREA.

BUT THEN HIS FLOOR'S IN DISARRAY.

I REALIZED AT THAT MOMENT THAT HE WAS LIVING A DOUBLE LIFE.

HE WAS TRYING TO LIVE IN THE SHOES OF HIS FATHER,

AND HE WAS TORN.

HE WAS JUST ABSOLUTELY TORN. HE COULD NOT DO IT.

NOW I'M THINKING THAT JAMES KILLED AMY

AND THEN KILLED HIMSELF.

THE MOST MADDENING PART OF HOMICIDE INVESTIGATION

IS NOT HAVING THE ANSWERS YOU REQUIRE.

AND THE BEST OF ALL OF US IN HOMICIDE,

SCHILLACI BEING AN EXAMPLE,

DO NOT REST UNTIL THEY FIND THOSE ANSWERS.

Schillaci: SO AT THIS POINT OF THE INVESTIGATION,

I GO TO THE AUTOPSY

BECAUSE I KNOW THIS WAS GONNA GIVE US A LOT OF THE PIECES

OF THE PUZZLE THAT NEEDED TO FIT.

THE MEDICAL EXAMINER ULTIMATELY TELLS US

THAT THE WOUNDS ON HIS ARMS

THAT I THOUGHT WERE DEFENSIVE WOUNDS

FROM BLOCKING BLOWS WERE WOUNDS FROM THE FALL.

Kenda: THEY'RE AS A RESULT OF FALLING THROUGH A PALM TREE

AT HIGH SPEED FROM THE 14th FLOOR

BECAUSE THE CORONER FINDS PLANT MATERIAL IN THE WOUND SITES.

FURTHER...Schillaci: ON THE WRIST?

...THE WRIST CUTS APPEAR TO BE SELF-INFLICTED,

SUPERFICIAL CUTS TO THE WRIST,

WHICH IS NOT UNCOMMON IN PEOPLE WHO TRY TO KILL THEMSELVES.

WHEN WE LOOK ON THE CHEST...

Schillaci: THE MEDICAL EXAMINER WAS VERY CLEAR ABOUT

THE STAB WOUNDS TO HIS CHEST.

THEY ONLY WENT IN ABOUT HALF AN INCH OVER THE HEART.

THIS IS A SELF-INFLICTED WOUND AS WELL.

SO EVERYTHING IS EXPLAINED AS NOT BEING PUT THERE

BY SOMEONE TRYING TO KILL THIS PERSON.

THE ULTIMATE CAUSE OF DEATH FOR JAMES

WAS BLUNT-FORCE INJURY FROM THE FALL.

LET'S GO. COME ON.

IF HIS PURPOSE WAS TO END HIS DAYS,

AND HE FELL TO HIS DEATH FROM THIS BALCONY,

WELL, WHO KILLED AMY?

THE ONLY PERSON THERE...

WAS JAMES.

AMY WAS JAMES'S LAST LIFELINE,

HIS LAST GRIP ON SOCIETY.

SHE WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT UNDERSTOOD HIS FEELINGS

AND HIS DEPRESSION OVER HIS CIRCUMSTANCES.

WE DON'T HAVE MR. DIAZ AND THE LIMO DRIVER

LEFT THE APARTMENT.

THEY'RE OUT OF THE PICTURE.

WE KNOW THAT AT SOME POINT

JAMES AND AMY LEAVE THE APARTMENT AND GO OUT AGAIN

BECAUSE WE SEE THEM COMING IN AT 6:52.

[ DOOR OPENS, KEYS JANGLE ]

-YOU WANT ANOTHER DRINK? -NO, NO, I GOT TO GO TO SLEEP.

AND SO SHOULD YOU.

DO WANT TO SLEEP IN MY BED, MAYBE?

[ LAUGHS ] NO, NO, I'M GOOD HERE.

ALL RIGHT, NIGHT, BUDDY.GOOD NIGHT.

HEY, JAMES, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

HEY.

I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT JAMES WAS SO INFATUATED

AND SO IN LOVE WITH HER

THAT HE MADE SOME ADVANCES TOWARDS HER.

-STOP, STOP! -COME ON, AMY.

I SEE THE WAY THAT YOU LOOK AT ME.

THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS IS.YEAH, WELL, WHAT IS IT?

YOU JUST GET OFF ON TEASING ME?

-STOP! -I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH?

JAMES, STOP! AGH!

AMY VIOLENTLY RESISTS HIM.

GET OFF OF ME!

SO WHEN HE FELT THIS BETRAYAL, HE SNAPPED.

WHAT IS IT? I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU?

HE ABSOLUTELY SNAPPED.

Kenda: JAMES GLASS IS DEPRESSED.

HE IS CONCERNED ABOUT HIS FUTURE.

HE DOESN'T BELIEVE HE HAS ONE.

HE HAS A GIRL WHO SEEMS TO CARE ABOUT HIM,

AND HE DISCOVERS HE DOESN'T RESPOND TO HIM ROMANTICALLY.

ALL THIS HAPPENS TO HIM

IN A MATTER OF A FEW MILLISECONDS.

AGH!

[ SCREAMS ]

IN THAT MOMENT, HE WENT INTO A RAGE.

I THINK HE WENT BLACK.

HE THRUST...

[ SCREAMS ]

...A SCISSOR...

STOP!

...STRAIGHT THROUGH HER STERNUM BONE INTO HER HEART.

Kenda: THAT DOESN'T CAUSE HER IMMEDIATE DEATH.

[ GASPING ]

HE TRIES TO STRANGLE HER WITH THE CORD IN THE IRON,

AND IT BREAKS LOOSE FROM THE IRON.

THEN HE USES IT AS A BLUNT INSTRUMENT

AND STRIKES HER IN THE HEAD WITH IT,

AND THIS DOES KILL HER.

Schillaci: THEN...

HE DRAGGED HER LIFELESS BODY INTO THE BATHROOM.

HE THOUGHT IF HE PUT HER IN THE BATHTUB,

THAT HE COULD CLEAN UP WHAT HE DID,

BUT IT DIDN'T HAPPEN THAT WAY.

HE NOW IS AT A POINT WHERE HE REALIZES WHAT HE'S DONE,

AND THERE'S NO WAY OUT.

HE TOOK THE LIFE OF THIS INNOCENT, BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY

WHO WAS THE ONE PERSON THAT LISTENED TO HIM,

THAT UNDERSTOOD WHAT HE WAS GOING THROUGH.

AND...

HE TOOK THAT AWAY.

Kenda: "WHAT HAVE I DONE?

I DON'T DESERVE TO LIVE."

HE TRIES TO CUT HIS WRISTS, AND THAT DOESN'T WORK.

Schillaci: HE EVEN STABBED HIMSELF IN THE CHEST

OVER THE HEART TO SAY, YOU KNOW, "I'M NOT WORTHY."

AND THEN WHEN THATDIDN'T WORK,

HE ULTIMATELY MADE THAT CALL...

-DAD? -...TO HIS DAD,

TOLD HIS DAD, "DAD, THIS IS A MESS

THAT YOU CAN'T CLEAN UP."

Glass: I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO.

TELL EVERYONE I LOVE THEM AND I'M SORRY.

SO WHAT'S HE DO NEXT?

HE KNOWS SOMETHING THAT WILL WORK.

HE LOOKS AT THAT BALCONY.

THERE'S ONLY ONE TEAR-DROPPED BLOOD DROP,

ONE DROP.

HE'S NOT WALKING, HE'S RUNNING --

RUNNING TO HIS DEATH.

THAT WAS IT. HE WAS NOT GONNA FAIL AT IT.

HE FAILED AT EVERYTHING ELSE,

BUT HE WAS NOT GONNA FAIL AT THAT.

[ THUD, CAR ALARM WAILS ]

Kenda: THE MURDER OF AMY HOYOS IS CLOSED BY EXCEPTION

BECAUSE THE SUSPECT IS DECEASED.

AND THE DEATH OF JAMES GLASS IS A SUICIDE --

SELF-INFLICTED, NO CRIME.

Schillaci: ONE OF MY BIGGEST RESPONSIBILITIES

AS A DEATH INVESTIGATOR

WAS CARRYING THAT MESSAGE BACK TO THE FAMILY TO SAY,

"THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED."

Foster: PUTTING ALL THE PIECES TOGETHER

AND FIGURING THINGS OUT,

JAMES WAS OBSESSED WITH HER.

I WISH SHE WOULD HAVE LISTENED,

YOU KNOW, WHEN I SAID, "LEAVE HIM ALONE."

AT FIRST I WAS MAD, BUT THEN AGAIN,

I THOUGHT HE WAS SICK,

SO I DON'T THINK THAT SOMEONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND

WOULD BE CAPABLE OF DOING SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

AND SO I HAVE FOUND IN MY HEART

TO FORGIVE HIM FOR WHAT HE DID.

Foster: THE WAY THAT IT HAPPENED SO TRAGICALLY,

IT TOOK A TOLL ON ME.

IT TOOK ME SOME YEARS TO KIND OF PUT HER SPIRIT TO REST

AND JUST REMEMBER ALL THE HAPPIER TIMES.

Shapiro: I'LL NEVER HAVE THE CHANCE

TO HAVE THAT TIME WITH MY SISTER,

TO SHARE ADULTHOOD WITH HER,

TO HAVE HER MEET MY CHILDREN,

AND I'LL NEVER SEE HER GET MARRIED

AND HAVE HER OWN CHILDREN.

THAT PART OF IT IS DEVASTATING.

Schillaci: I WILL GO AS FAR AS SAYING THIS CASE

IS THE CASE THAT HAS HAUNTED ME THE MOST.

JAMES NEEDED HELP, BUT UNFORTUNATELY,

IT WAS THE KIND OF HELP THAT AMY COULDN'T PROVIDE.

Kenda: AMY DID NOT REALIZE OR SUSPECT

THAT JAMES GLASS'S DEPRESSION WAS SO DEEP-SEATED.

HAD SHE UNDERSTOOD

WHAT A FRAGILE CONDITION HIS EMOTIONS WERE IN,

SHE WOULD NOT HAVE STAYED IN THAT APARTMENT.

SHE DIDN'T BELIEVE JAMES COULD HURT HER OR HURT HIMSELF.

SHE WAS WRONG.
