00:00Lei ha detto che c'è qualcuno era in la basura e si è stato morto.
00:04Eh, f*** that. Y'all gotta go. Y'all gotta go.
00:07Well, I gotta ask, I mean, because you're making me...
00:09No, sir. No, sir.
00:10Well, you're making me a little suspicious now.
00:12Ain't nobody tied up in the basement. Can we look?
00:14No, f*** knows.
00:16But why would a crackhead say that about you?
00:18Probably because they want more crack, bro.
00:20Is anybody on that front porch?
00:21No.
00:22So, what's that noise I keep hearing?
00:24That you keep turning the music up on every time I hear something?
00:30Oh, Jesus.
00:31When police respond to a report of a woman imprisoned in a local residence,
00:35they encounter a bizarre homeowner who says their very presence is putting him in danger.
00:41But there's no sign of a woman.
00:43It's not until a second call brings them back that the cops go inside
00:47and make a shocking discovery that's beyond anything they could have imagined.
00:51The following report is based on official police records.
00:54On the afternoon of May 2, 2023, a woman calls 911 in Cleveland, Ohio,
01:00to share a disturbing story she just heard from a frightened stranger.
01:04I was just calling because I was at this store, right, and this lady had came out of nowhere
01:10and was just, like, all hysterical and scared and stuff or whatever.
01:13I don't know where she went to, but she said that this lady was supposed to be tied up in this basement.
01:18Now, I'm only calling because I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight
01:20knowing that somebody might be tied up, even if it is a lie or whatever.
01:24I kind of believe her because the way she was scared, like, no, she didn't say anything else.
01:28Officers with the Cleveland Police Department arrive at the address moments later.
01:33Police!
01:37There's music coming from the back.
01:52Hello?
01:57After a full three minutes of knocking,
02:01the police finally get a response from inside.
02:04Bro, y'all can't be here like this.
02:07You can't be here like this, bro.
02:09I'm just knocking on your door.
02:11I understand that, but you making me hot?
02:13What does that mean?
02:15I'm about to come out.
02:17Alright, come on out.
02:19How you doing, sir?
02:21Y'all can't be out here like this.
02:23Just so you know, everything's recorded.
02:25Listen.
02:26Yes?
02:27Turn those cameras off, please.
02:28Well, what's going on?
02:29Can you please turn the cameras off?
02:30You have to give me a reason and I can't.
02:32You guys are making my spot hot.
02:38I work for you guys, okay?
02:40Long story short.
02:41I work for you guys.
02:42Please get out here.
02:43You guys are blowing the spot up.
02:45Alright?
02:46Who do you work for?
02:47I can't tell you that.
02:48Why?
02:49I cannot tell you that because I'm not allowed to tell you that.
02:52Okay?
02:53So just understand that.
02:54Go home.
02:55We have a call.
02:56Here, sir, let me just tell you why we're here and then we'll leave.
02:58It could be nothing.
02:59I don't know.
03:00I don't know anything about you.
03:01Alright, I'm just saying y'all can't be here.
03:02Y'all making my spot hot.
03:03Alright?
03:04After pushing the cops to leave, the man finally asks what brought them here to begin with.
03:09What was your call about?
03:11Did you have a female here earlier that was a white female in a black coat?
03:16Hell no, bro.
03:18Alright, well, here's the complaint.
03:20Here's the complaint.
03:21What's the complaint?
03:22She made a complaint that says somebody was in the basement and they were injured.
03:26Man, f*** that.
03:27Y'all gotta go.
03:28Y'all gotta go.
03:29Well, I gotta ask.
03:30I mean, because you're making me-
03:31No, sir.
03:32No, sir.
03:33No, sir.
03:34Well, you're making me a little suspicious now.
03:35Man, listen.
03:36You need to leave.
03:37Not only do the police stick around, more of them soon arrive.
03:40Oh, my God.
03:41There's so many f***ing people here.
03:43Well, it's no big deal here.
03:44Man, it is a big deal.
03:45What?
03:46I'm trying to tell you guys to f*** it up.
03:49Well, we were told that a lady's tied up in the basement.
03:52There ain't nobody tied up in the basement.
03:53Can we look?
03:54No, f***ing no.
03:55Why not?
03:56Because I say something.
03:58Is someone tied up down there?
04:00No.
04:01What's your name, buddy?
04:02I can't tell you that, bro.
04:04What do you mean you can't tell me that?
04:05I'm trying to tell you I'm a confidential informant.
04:08That's all I have to say.
04:09You guys are bugging right now.
04:10You guys are bugging.
04:11No.
04:12That's not all you have to say.
04:13Who told you that?
04:14I can't say nothing else.
04:15Please.
04:16Well, if there's something that's happening in the basement, we got to talk.
04:18There's nobody in the basement.
04:19in the basement.
04:20So why can't I look?
04:21Why do you...
04:22Why do you...
04:23Because...
04:24All that stuff that went on in the past with those three girls, man.
04:27We got to take this seriously.
04:28What three girls?
04:29What three girls?
04:30The gym.
04:31I don't know them, man.
04:33You know what I'm saying?
04:34If we don't take this seriously...
04:36I'm about to give you my social security number.
04:39Oh, yeah.
04:40I'm sorry.
04:42We're not going anywhere.
04:44Yeah, he's trying to do that.
04:45Tell him, please, not to be there.
04:46While the man appears to believe that his status as a confidential informant puts him above suspicion,
04:51the police don't share that view.
04:53Wait.
04:54Detective Smith.
04:55Please, go.
04:56Which Smith?
04:57Detective Smith.
04:58The one in...
04:59Second District.
05:00Okay, that's how you know I'm not...
05:01Okay, well, I guarantee...
05:02His phone number's right here.
05:03No, no, listen.
05:04We'll call him.
05:05Listen, we'll call him.
05:06Don't call him.
05:07Well, why wouldn't I call him?
05:08Don't call him here.
05:09Listen, will you stop talking for a moment?
05:10I can't, bro.
05:11My life is on the f***ing line.
05:12Who's on the line?
05:13All you had to do was talk to us.
05:14You're the one who came outside.
05:15Y'all don't know what's going on, baby boy.
05:18That's all I'm saying.
05:19Listen, once again...
05:20I got drill pillars and everything that drive past her, and I got five cars out here.
05:23Alright.
05:24You're about to get me killed off this s***.
05:25Why are you acting this way?
05:28How do you keep...
05:29You understand why I'm acting this way, dude?
05:31No.
05:32If we have to talk to Detective Smith and say,
05:33Hey, do you think this guy would have a girl tied up in his basement?
05:36He's gonna say no.
05:37Is he?
05:38A hundred percent, bro.
05:39I just...
05:40He's willing to risk his career for all that?
05:42You think I'm f***ing.
05:43Oh my gosh.
05:44You're gonna take a crackhead's word over Detective Smith's word, right?
05:48I haven't spoken to Detective Smith.
05:50Well, you're gonna talk to him.
05:51He's gonna let you know what's going on.
05:52I was down there for an hour with him yesterday.
05:54Okay.
05:55I just left my probation officer.
05:56But why would somebody...
05:57Why would somebody say that?
05:58Because they're f***ing crackheads.
05:59But why would a crackhead say that about you?
06:01They're crackheads.
06:02Probably because they want more crack, bro.
06:03Do you have crack?
06:04I'm not gonna...
06:05Why would I say that?
06:06Why would you ask me that on camera?
06:07I don't know.
06:08Why don't you do that to me?
06:09I know I don't have no f***ing crack.
06:10It's my job.
06:11Well, why would the crackhead be here then?
06:13This man is...
06:14Wow.
06:15And the most confidential informants don't come screaming out the back door.
06:17I'm a confidential informant, do they?
06:19Despite the suspicious circumstances, the police sergeant lets the man, Delonte Edmund Geiger,
06:25go back inside his home while the other cops contemplate what they've heard.
06:29Have you ever, like, actually dealt with a confidential informant?
06:34Yeah.
06:35And every time they're up to no good and they're confident, that's what they do.
06:39That's how they act?
06:40Yeah, that's how they act.
06:42So, I don't know what's up.
06:44My only fear is there's somebody really in the basement.
06:46I actually think he's freaking out like that because he's...
06:49Up to no good.
06:50Yeah.
06:51He's gonna let us in.
06:53Um...
06:54He's real sketchy.
06:56He said, need another guy, but you come in to him and tell him you're on probation.
06:59It's a training thing.
07:00And then these guys are right back there in case you scream for help.
07:05Like girls?
07:06Ah!
07:07They're right.
07:16If it's a joke, it's one that will become much less funny before this day is through.
07:21Hey.
07:22Do you mind if they're...
07:23No!
07:24No, dude!
07:25There's too much going on.
07:26No!
07:27No!
07:28No!
07:29No!
07:30Alright, stand outside.
07:31Leave this crack though.
07:32It gets you screaming for a ****.
07:33Nobody's about to do nothing to y'all, dude.
07:34You can't.
07:35No, no, no.
07:36No, no.
07:37Seriously.
07:38It's a crack.
07:39Just in case you're screaming for a ****.
07:40No!
07:41They're not coming in.
07:42You have my word.
07:43Unless you start...
07:44Unless you start screaming.
07:46With that, the police go into the residence and as the sergeant checks the basement,
07:51his backup waits upstairs with Delonte.
07:53What's up?
07:54I got PTSD.
07:55Alright.
07:56I've been stabbed seven times, shot twice.
07:59Have we done any of that to you?
08:01No, no, no, no, no, no.
08:02It's just...
08:03Honestly, I'm trying to change my life and work with the police.
08:05I'm like ****.
08:06I don't...
08:07I just don't do that every day.
08:08You feel me?
08:09Alright.
08:10Turn that down for a moment.
08:12There you go.
08:13Actually, turn it off until we hear them and you're reaching out.
08:16That way I can hear everybody.
08:20Please, please.
08:22It's me.
08:25Alright, so what?
08:26Is someone just pissed off at you or something?
08:28I'll tell you, buddy.
08:29We'll make love for me.
08:30We'll never come back here again, okay?
08:32Alright.
08:33You want to wait, buddy?
08:35I'm having your hand.
08:40Well, listen.
08:41I got strikes.
08:42Wait, what?
08:43I don't know.
08:49I'm about to walk to the store right behind you guys.
08:52Okay.
08:53There's nothing down there.
08:56See you, bro.
09:03No cost.
09:04Okay.
09:05Alright.
09:06It's cold.
09:09You might want to keep an eye on this house.
09:11I know.
09:12As it turns out, the cops will be back sooner than they may have thought.
09:16That evening, a woman tips them off that Delonte showed her pictures of a woman being tortured and zip tied to a chair, warning that he would soon do the same to her.
09:26The police go back to the house at midnight, and once again, it's not easy to get someone to the door.
09:31Hey, Sergeant Neverto.
09:32Good place.
09:33Yes.
09:34Yes.
09:35Alright, so I appreciate this.
09:36Um, I appreciate a lot of you folks.
09:37Yeah.
09:38You know my nerves.
09:39We'll just sit down.
09:40What's up, bro?
09:41How y'all doing?
09:42Sand people, sand people, sand people?
09:43No.
09:44Sand people, sand people, sand people.
09:45You know?
09:46I don't know every time.
09:47I need y'all to come through the back door, okay?
09:48Yeah, you do.
09:49The back door?
09:50Yeah, yeah.
09:51You sure?
09:52Yeah.
09:53That's right for you.
09:54Absolutely.
09:55Sorry for not letting you in over here, bro.
09:56Sorry for my attitude, okay?
09:57Sounds good.
09:58Give me five seconds.
09:59You need to leave it back there?
10:00Oh, y'all.
10:01Alright.
10:02The police head around the house to meet with Delonte, but as one officer stays behind,
10:15he hears some loud movements coming from within.
10:30Delonte soon lets the cops in, and they head straight down to the basement to continue
10:34the search they cut short this afternoon.
10:37Okay.
10:38So, if you swallow me, just help me my nose, otherwise you'll get a little bit of enough.
10:44Okay.
10:45That's not a small cat pee, so.
10:51The basement, again, seems to be absent of any victims, tied up or otherwise, but this
10:56time, the cops are determined to search the entire house.
10:59Okay.
11:00I'm about to close the door, man.
11:01You can see the other door behind this door.
11:02Okay.
11:03Okay?
11:04Okay.
11:05Hang out up here, because this is rather fresh.
11:07I'm about to close the door, man.
11:08You can see the other door behind this door.
11:12Okay.
11:13Hang out up here, because this is rather fresh.
11:19There's some blood right here.
11:20There's some blood, like dried blood, I think.
11:22There's some blood.
11:23There's some blood, like dried blood, I think.
11:29There doesn't appear to be anyone else in the house, but suspicions are mounting.
11:30Not the least, because Delonte has decided the search requires an extremely loud soundtrack.
11:31What are you saying?
11:32Don't you just turn it up will?
11:33No, of course.
11:34No doubt, that's all.
11:35I'm with you.
11:36Don't you.
11:37Taylor?
11:38Just press the door.
11:39You got to go, and you can just turn it over here.
11:40Yes.
11:41I can't turn it over here.
11:42There's some blood right here.
11:43What is that?
11:44There's some blood?
11:45Like dried blood, I think?
11:46Love my RM.
11:47There doesn't appear to be anyone else in the house, but suspicions are mounting.
11:48There doesn't appear to be anyone else in the house, but suspicions are mounting.
11:54Not the least, because Delonte has decided the search requires an extremely loud soundtrack.
11:59Can you turn the music down?
12:25With the newfound silence, the police turned to Delonte, determined to finally get to the
12:50bottom of this runaround.
12:52But even on a day filled with rumors, strange claims, and unsettling tips, none of them
12:58are prepared for what comes next.
13:00Is anybody on that front porch?
13:02No.
13:03So what's that noise I keep here that you keep turning the music up on every time
13:06I hear something?
13:07Is anybody on there?
13:09I heard them dragging something out when we went from the front to the back, too, just
13:14so you know.
13:15Is anybody in that front there?
13:16Because I heard voices of the movement and noise.
13:18Who's out there?
13:27Who's out there?
13:28Sweating a lot.
13:29Oh, this is it.
13:30Did you hear it?
13:31The point is, who's out there?
13:36Who's out there?
13:37Who's out there?
13:38Where you at?
13:39She's under.
13:40There's a thing under.
13:41Remember I shined my flashlight when you guys went back there?
13:43All right.
13:44She's under.
13:45Police.
13:46All right.
13:47Yeah, I heard him sliding something under there when he went from the front to the back.
14:05Where you at?
14:06Where you at, man?
14:08There's a thing that's going to knock on the front.
14:15See that well.
14:16We're looking.
14:17How do you get through me?
14:22Is anybody to find a boss?
14:25Yeah.
14:26Oh my god.
14:28Yeah.
14:29It's probably me.
14:30I love you.
14:31That's right, though I'm kind of near.
14:34I'm paranoid.
14:36Oh my gosh.
14:37I'm paralyzed.
14:38All right.
14:39Okay.
14:40How old are you?
14:41I'm 60.
14:4360 o'clock.
14:45Oh my god.
14:47Yes.
14:48Are you injured besides that?
14:50I'm paralyzed.
14:51You're paralyzed?
14:53I'm paralyzed.
14:54What's your name?
14:55Cheryl Cyrus.
14:59Is he called Carol?
15:00Carol?
15:01No, it's Cheryl.
15:02Cheryl.
15:03Yeah.
15:04My leg's out.
15:07We got the MS coming.
15:09I don't want to move you because I don't want to hurt you more.
15:11Can you breathe?
15:12I can now.
15:13Okay.
15:14I want Cheryl to be injured.
15:18The police escort Delonte out of the house as they try to make sense of the bizarre discovery
15:23they've made on his front porch.
15:25Cheryl, do you know, is there anyone else here with you?
15:28I don't know.
15:29Okay.
15:30Cheryl?
15:31I don't know.
15:32I don't know.
15:33I don't know.
15:34They hurt.
15:35They hurt?
15:36They want to get you out of there, but I'm afraid to move you.
15:39I'm going to let EMS you all there, okay?
15:41You better commit.
15:42What did he do to you?
15:48He did what?
15:49Hey Scott, do you want a fire to come?
15:50At least get her upright?
15:52Make sure I'm in the back for her.
15:54I know, but if we get fire here, they can...
15:57Oh, here.
15:58No, but...
15:59They've got no ETA on EMS.
16:01They've got this badge.
16:02Huh?
16:03Did he stab you?
16:05I don't know.
16:06Where did he stab you think?
16:07I don't know.
16:08I don't know.
16:09I don't know.
16:10I don't know.
16:11Did he sexually assault you at all?
16:13I don't know.
16:14I don't know.
16:15I don't know.
16:16Do you know how long you've been here?
16:18No.
16:19Is it just one day?
16:23No.
16:24Okay.
16:25But even with Cheryl Cyrus somewhat responsive to their questions,
16:29there's nothing that can fully explain what's going on.
16:32What's the story here?
16:34Dude, there's a lot.
16:36I don't even know where to begin.
16:39This might not be the only victim, but we just searched the house and didn't find anything else.
16:45As rescue personnel get Cheryl free of the box and transport it to the hospital, police conduct another search of the home.
16:52She was supposed to be wearing a pink hoodie.
16:56Black pants and white pants.
16:58You got your pants?
17:00No.
17:01She was completely new.
17:03Oh, Jesus.
17:06Cat.
17:07Cat's scared to hell out of me.
17:09Come here.
17:13And the attic's done.
17:15There was a pink hoodie.
17:17That was it.
17:18Pink hoodie?
17:19Pink hoodie.
17:20Did she say it was this rumor?
17:21She just said that he was transporting her from the basement up here.
17:28That there was going to be an AK-47 in here.
17:33Drugs.
17:34Yeah.
17:35We're going to have to pull it apart to find a serial number.
17:40Nice.
17:41Dr. Will.
17:42There's no sign of any other victims in the house.
17:44But the one they did find will give detectives more than enough to discuss with Delonte when they visit him in jail the following night.
17:51Obviously, we know some bad things did go down.
17:54Do you want to give you a chance to go over?
17:56I'm a confidential informant for Detective Larry Smith out of the 2nd District.
18:02Okay.
18:03Okay.
18:04Okay.
18:05How long have you been doing that for?
18:06About a week and a half now.
18:07Okay.
18:08About a week and a half.
18:10And that was...
18:11I wasn't going to kill her.
18:12I wasn't going to...
18:13I've been taming her.
18:14You know what I'm saying?
18:15But I just can't have her.
18:16I don't know.
18:17I just...
18:18Because I'm working with Detective Swift trying to get him to the Levin's five AKs, four Glock Street.
18:25that's supposed to be going into the Valley like next week.
18:26You know what I'm saying?
18:27I'm trying to get him big red who moves six ounces a day of cold crap.
18:28And I'm trying to get him those who descriptions of the ounces of the day.
18:41But I found out that this is...
18:44is that.
18:45And you know what I'm saying?
18:46If I was...
18:47You found out with that flood?
18:48That what I was taking care of in my house is a rat.
18:53And if she didn't get back out on the street, it's close.
18:56Delonte, who calls Cheryl Cece, claims she's an addict.
19:00One among many who frequent his house.
19:03Well, Cece, she's always at my house smoking dope.
19:06Okay.
19:07So I'll take care of everybody on the streets.
19:09All the fiends.
19:10That's where they live.
19:12Okay.
19:13You know what I'm saying?
19:14Long story, sure.
19:15That's ground zero for the crackheads.
19:16According to Delonte, the entire situation began on April 27th,
19:20five days before police showed up at his house.
19:22wanting to search the basement.
19:24In an incident partially corroborated by police records,
19:27the car Delonte was driving was pulled over by vice cops.
19:31He says Cheryl was in the car as well.
19:34I left my house.
19:35And before I got four tires on the street,
19:37the police is hitting the block.
19:39I don't know what the f*** going on.
19:41I'm swerving around.
19:42I'm on the sidewalk trying to get around them
19:44because I don't know what's going on.
19:45Guns in my face.
19:46Get out the car.
19:47Get out.
19:48Where are you guys going?
19:49Boy, turn the car off.
19:51Empty out your pockets.
19:52I ain't got nothing, bro.
19:53Y'all tripping like y'all.
19:54Y'all just f***ed up.
19:55Like, what's going on?
19:56I had to stay with me.
19:57Oh, yeah.
19:58You know, we can get you for this.
19:59And since that note is right here,
20:00we're going to get you for that, man.
20:01Listen, I cannot go back to prison, bro.
20:03What do you need me to do?
20:04Delonte says that was when one of the detectives took his phone,
20:08programmed his number into it, and told him,
20:10you're working for me now.
20:12But it was how the police treated Cheryl,
20:14the woman they would later find in a box on his front porch,
20:17that really got his attention.
20:19Detectives told her, thank you.
20:21Bye.
20:22Okay.
20:23Detective Smith said, thank you.
20:24Bye.
20:25Keep on walking.
20:26Listen to the detectives.
20:27As we walk out the car, you can go.
20:29Thank you.
20:30Okay.
20:31Okay.
20:32You ain't even getting searched.
20:34It's crap.
20:35About $200 worth of dope in the car is skilled,
20:37and they just, you didn't even get searched.
20:39He concluded that Cheryl had set up the traffic stop
20:41and would now know that he'd been turned
20:43into a confidential informant for the police.
20:46The next time Cheryl came over to his house,
20:48he decided he couldn't let her leave.
20:51I feel like my life is in danger.
20:53People have tried to kill me three times already.
20:57You feel me?
20:58I'd have been shot in my .
20:59I don't need my underarm blood.
21:02All type of weird .
21:03It's crazy.
21:04I felt like I was going to die if I didn't hold her
21:07for like two days and let her know what was going on.
21:10I beat her up.
21:11I fed her.
21:12Showered her.
21:13All type of weird .
21:15Make sure she ate.
21:16But I just could not let her go back on the streets
21:18and tell everybody that I was wearing the feet off.
21:21Everything that went through, like the time
21:23where you and Cece were together, like what happened
21:25during those days?
21:27I just punched on her, slapped on her, tell her.
21:31Pushed on her, slapped on her.
21:33Pushed on her, slapped on her.
21:34Pushed on her, slapped on her.
21:35Pushed on her, slapped on her.
21:36Moved her from the basement to another room.
21:37Fed her.
21:38Showered her.
21:39Gave her some water.
21:40Put her blanket over her.
21:41I'm just telling you the truth, right?
21:43No, that's fine.
21:44What the ?
21:45No.
21:46Okay.
21:47Is that what you about to ask me?
21:48No.
21:49No, like were you giving her drugs and stuff like that?
21:51No.
21:52Why would I give her my drugs?
21:53Why the ?
21:54Why the ?
21:55What would I do that?
21:56I didn't know.
21:57I didn't know.
21:58No.
21:59So at any point, was she asking to leave?
22:03Different things like that?
22:04She has nowhere to go.
22:05Okay.
22:06She has nowhere to go.
22:07All she was just asking was why.
22:09Stop.
22:10I won't do it again.
22:11I'll never tell.
22:12I'll never tell.
22:13I'll never tell Blas, please.
22:14I'll never tell.
22:15I know I deserve this, but I'll never tell.
22:17Like that's a cold in the streets.
22:18While Delonte speaks to detectives, Cheryl lies in the intensive care unit on a ventilator
22:24in what the hospital classifies as a declining critical condition.
22:28In addition to being on dialysis, she's suffering from swelling to the head and brain,
22:33broken ribs, a collapsed lung, and multiple spinal fractures.
22:38But according to Delonte, it could be worse.
22:41I'll go kill the .
22:43I shot him in the knee.
22:45Long story short, I wanted to kill the .
22:47Delonte says that among other things, he had Cheryl sit down and write, I am a snitch
22:53and I am a rat over and over again.
22:56It's worth noting that while the police report from the traffic stop identifies two passengers,
23:01neither of them were named Cheryl.
23:03So, when cops came out the first time yesterday with you and stuff like that, they...
23:09They actually checked the basement.
23:11Yeah.
23:12She wasn't in the basement.
23:13She's upstairs laying down in the bed.
23:14Delonte went down in the basement.
23:15So, let me ask you, because there was a moment in time...
23:17I wasn't there, so I can't speak on it or anything.
23:20So, there was a moment to where, like, you were still inside the house for a little bit.
23:25Did you have to call anybody to ask if you should let the cops in or anything like that?
23:29My detentives.
23:30So then, at that point, he told you just to let them in if you want to check the basement?
23:34Yeah.
23:35He said, they're not going to...
23:36He said, a matter like this, they're not going anywhere until you let them in the house and check the basement.
23:41If you don't, they're just going to come back with a search warrant and check it anyways.
23:44and check it anyways.
23:45I said, alright, back.
23:46Five minutes.
23:47Tell them to come in.
23:48Five minutes.
23:49Took me three minutes to put her upstairs in the bed.
23:52Two minutes to let them in the house.
23:54And one minute for them to not do their job and go home.
23:57They only wanted to search one room.
23:59They searched that one room.
24:00She was there and they left.
24:01Okay.
24:02Stupid dude.
24:03Alright.
24:04So...
24:05Right?
24:06You should've searched the whole house.
24:08Yeah.
24:09We found somebody in the basement.
24:11Okay, come on in.
24:12Checked out in the basement.
24:15Nobody's there.
24:16See you later, sir.
24:17S***ing job.
24:19Y'all supposed to open up the tables?
24:21Open up the refrigerator?
24:24That's a horrible job on the lawnmower.
24:26Horrible job on the lawnmower.
24:27I'll be the first to see it.
24:29A missing body?
24:32Pretty serious?
24:33Yeah.
24:34Do you think so?
24:35Yeah.
24:36Well, next time, take it serious.
24:37After accepting Delonte's feedback on their police work,
24:40the detectives move on to the second visit to his home that night.
24:44Do you think anything else?
24:45Yeah, so the first time the police came, you said you moved her upstairs, right?
24:50And then she was upstairs.
24:52Obviously, the second time the police came, she was in that tote, right?
24:58How did that go down in between there?
25:00Well, I really wanted to check the upstairs.
25:02Right, but I'm saying, how did she get in there?
25:06I put her in there.
25:07Okay.
25:08And put her downstairs, and put her on the porch.
25:11Okay.
25:13No one thing else.
25:14Why'd you have the music going so loud?
25:16Just because if she made noise, they wouldn't hear her.
25:19When Cheryl improves to the point that she can speak to detectives, she tells them that Delonte,
25:24who was her dealer, turned on her and accused her of being a narc.
25:28Over a period of days, he beat her, stabbed her, dragged her across the floor, broke a television
25:34over her head, and put her in several different containers.
25:38She says he also poured water on her to the point she couldn't breathe, and fed her addiction
25:43so she could endure the pain.
25:45Even still, Delonte appears hopeful that this will mostly blow over.
25:50Are you going to try to help me or not?
25:52Well, like I said, it'll go from there once you see the judge and, like, the case starts
25:56moving forward.
25:57No, but you guys have to talk to the judge, though, and let her know that I am a confidential
26:00informant and that, like, I am working with the police.
26:04Like, I understand I'm in trouble, but what I need you guys to do is, like...
26:08Well, I'll put in the paperwork to let them know for...
26:11You know what I'm saying?
26:12Because I like doing my job.
26:13I like my job.
26:14And, like, I don't want guns on the streets.
26:16I don't want drugs on the streets.
26:17I can't do that if I'm in here.
26:19Detective Smith will buy me out.
26:21Believe it or not, if I get a bond, he'll come buy me out.
26:25You know what I'm saying?
26:26So I need a bond.
26:27And D.T. Smith will come buy me out, and I'm going right back to work.
26:32But that doesn't happen.
26:33And Delonte is soon informed that his bond will be set for $750,000.
26:38News that he responds to with a middle finger at his hearing.
26:42Eleven days after his interrogation, he's still in jail when he speaks to his mom on the phone.
26:47You think they lower my bond?
26:49If they lower my bond?
26:50If they lower my bond, like, $200,000, dude, I got...
26:53I got enough collateral to buy myself out.
26:55I already talked to...
26:56Like I said, I already talked to the bills by the way.
26:58He said, just bring me, bring me, bring me my collateral, bring him my...
27:01I'm trying to bring him my trailer, my tours.
27:03And that's where I had to put one of my businesses in.
27:05And I'm out of here.
27:06And that's what he said.
27:07He said, you got to run your bond.
27:09We just got to see tomorrow when you go to court.
27:13The worst outcome that comes out of this to you might be five years in a asylum.
27:22But things turn out a bit differently.
27:24At a court hearing six months later, Cheryl Cyrus recounted the horrors inflicted upon her
27:29and told the judge that she remained 98% paralyzed and dependent on others for her basic needs.
27:35Delonte Edmund Geiger pled guilty to one count of felonious assault, one count of kidnapping,
27:41one count of possessing a weapon under disability, and one count of tampering with evidence.
27:46In November 2023, the judge said, I've never seen an offense like this in my time on the bench,
27:52and sentenced Edmund Geiger to 16 to 20 years in prison with an expected release date of April 2039.
27:59He's currently incarcerated at the Trumbull Correctional Institution.
