00:00Did you see their corpses?
00:01They're filming out the mouth.
00:02They're still composing.
00:03Back there, their wounds healed though.
00:06Is that normal?
00:07That's not normal.
00:08They're like black out the mouth.
00:09Put them in the capsule.
00:10Put them in the container.
00:12Apple be angry.
00:14Order the oars.
00:16They're rising back.
00:17Even body.
00:18They're eating a lot of these.
00:19There's a lot of blood.
00:20Wait, wait, what?
00:21They're all dead.
00:24On October 13th, 2024,
00:28deputies from the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office
00:31receive a call from a concerned neighbor
00:32who heard about half a dozen gunshots somewhere nearby.
00:37When authorities arrive at the neighboring residence,
00:39they're greeted by 24-year-old Adlai Mestre
00:42and clear evidence that something horrific
00:44has recently happened in the home.
00:47Answers about this tragic case wouldn't come easy,
00:49not only because of the suspect's bizarre behavior,
00:53but because he didn't plan on staying in custody for long.
00:57I'm commanding you.
00:59What is he doing?
01:01Angel, come on.
01:02Open the door.
01:17The following report is based on official police records
01:21and most of the footage has never been seen before until now.
01:25Please note that all persons charged with a crime
01:27are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
01:31Around 1.45 in the afternoon on October 13th, 2024,
01:36a 911 call came into the Bernalillo County, New Mexico Sheriff's Office.
01:40And the property adjacent to me I also own, but I rent to a nice family that has been living there for some years.
01:47We heard like several gunshots about an hour and a half ago
01:51and thought what we heard was kind of like a dog crying.
01:55Anyway, we heard about five or six gunshots
01:57and then about ten minutes later a single gunshot.
02:00It did sound close by.
02:01You know, maybe I'm being paranoid.
02:04The caller, Daniel, said that despite hearing the shots an hour and a half earlier,
02:08he'd decided to text and call the Mestre family first.
02:12He also drove to their home and honked his horn several times.
02:15When there was no response, he called the authorities.
02:18It isn't until 2.50 p.m., about an hour after the 911 call,
02:23that deputies arrive at the Mestre family home.
02:29Sheriff's Office!
02:31Nothing could prepare the two deputies for the troubling encounter they were about to have.
02:35How you doing, sir?
02:37My family rushed me.
02:39Rushed you where?
02:40In my room.
02:41What do you mean?
02:42With a knife.
02:43Come on here real quickly.
02:45Yes, sir.
02:45What are you talking about, dude?
02:46You have any weapons on you right now?
02:48Yeah, I do.
02:48Hold on, no, no, no, no reach.
02:49No, I do, I do.
02:50Go on, turn around.
02:51Yes, sir.
02:53You're just going to tell me what's going on, okay?
02:55Give me a second.
02:56My family was trying to walk into my room,
02:58and they were trying to hit my heart,
03:00and my dad had a knife,
03:01and my sister's had a blade hammer,
03:03and I killed him.
03:05And then I found him.
03:06What?
03:06I killed him.
03:07But however, I found their bodies,
03:09and their wounds were healed.
03:11Do you want me to show you?
03:13In a minute, okay?
03:14We need a disclaimer.
03:15It was crazy.
03:16I don't know, like,
03:19I shot him in the head,
03:20and then they were convulsing.
03:23What's your name?
03:25Adlai.
03:26Adlai?
03:27Adlai.
03:27Are you okay, man?
03:28Yeah, no, I'm honestly shook.
03:30You shook up?
03:31Yeah.
03:31I got a pistol in here.
03:34I was going to put on my light.
03:38It was crazy.
03:39Is that normal?
03:45I don't know what happened.
03:47It's like they were trying to hit my heart,
03:49and then they were banging on my door,
03:50and it came like...
03:52You have blood on your hands, D.
03:53What's up with that?
03:54My dad rushed me,
03:55I hit him,
03:56and then my mom was like,
03:57you need to die.
03:58And I was like,
03:58what the fuck?
03:58If 24-year-old Adlai Mestre's claim
04:02seems strange now,
04:04they will only become even more bizarre.
04:07You know, I can show you my problem, man.
04:08No, just hold on.
04:09Just tell me where they're at,
04:10or you're going to come over here.
04:11Hey, hey, hold on.
04:12We have to detain you in a car, okay?
04:15You're over there.
04:15You're right.
04:16Okay.
04:16Are they in the house?
04:18No, she looks scary for them.
04:19They were biting their arms,
04:21and then there was like
04:21hot-boiling on the ground.
04:24Is that normal?
04:24Did you use that gun at all?
04:32I didn't.
04:33You did?
04:34Yeah.
04:35Against who?
04:36My dad.
04:37My sister.
04:38My mom.
04:39And my sister.
04:41I don't know what the fuck they're doing.
04:48Hold on.
04:49I'm going to sleep.
04:50I'm going to sleep.
04:54After securing Adlai in the vehicle,
05:02the deputies return to the residence.
05:04Sheriff's office!
05:05Anyone inside?
05:06Come on out with your hands up,
05:07open and empty.
05:09Look if there's a lot of blood.
05:10Give us 10 feet.
05:12When their announcement goes unanswered,
05:14the deputies wait for backup to arrive.
05:17However, even from the doorway,
05:18it's evident that something horrific
05:20has occurred recently.
05:22Blood can be seen in pools
05:23and smears on the floor and stairs.
05:26When backup finally arrives,
05:27they prepare to enter the home.
05:29Do you guys want to work with the shield?
05:31Yeah.
05:34How's the dog?
05:35The dog?
05:35I think it's kenneled.
05:37Okay.
05:41Burnley O'Kanning Sheriff's Office!
05:43Anybody inside?
05:44Come out with your hands up,
05:45open and empty.
05:46As the deputies make their way
05:48through the entirety of the home,
05:50they find more blood spatter
05:51leading up the stairs,
05:53soaked into the carpet,
05:54smeared on the walls,
05:56and trails of red into the bedrooms.
05:58There's a knife too right there.
06:00Come on up.
06:01Hold on right here.
06:05What's right?
06:08I'm going to take it to the showroom
06:09that's going to drop down to the right
06:10on the whole hallway.
06:11Cool.
06:12There's no heat on here.
06:14There's a lot of mud.
06:16Take a breath.
06:17Sheriff's Office!
06:20Shell pacing.
06:23Looks like someone was dragged.
06:25Yep.
06:26In another part of the home,
06:28they find evidence
06:29that one of the family's dogs
06:30has also been injured.
06:32I think this dog was shot too,
06:33so some of the blood
06:34may be coming from the dog.
06:36With no sign of Adlai's family
06:38anywhere inside,
06:39they head into the backyard.
06:41There's a drag mark still here.
06:42There's a drag mark still here.
06:47These are drag marks.
06:53It's trying.
06:54Stay out of them.
06:56Seeing the daunting expanse of the yard,
06:58one of the deputies heads back
07:00to the vehicles to speak with Adlai,
07:02hoping he can narrow down the search.
07:04Please don't kill me, officer.
07:06I'm not going to kill you,
07:07dude, but I need to know where they're at.
07:08All right.
07:08Did you see that dog?
07:10I can show you.
07:11No.
07:11Okay, so no.
07:12What are they?
07:13Are they inside the house
07:13or outside the house?
07:14They're in the backyard,
07:15so I was going to bury them.
07:17So there's a gate.
07:18Subject saying they're in the backyard.
07:19There's a gate with a trail.
07:20Gate with a trail,
07:21and then you're going to want to take a right,
07:23and there's going to be another gate,
07:24and you're going to want to go down.
07:25I can leave you there.
07:26Do you have a specific location?
07:28The deputy passes the information
07:29to the rest of his team,
07:31and it isn't long before they find
07:33Adlai's father, David,
07:35mother, Nancy,
07:36and 17-year-old sister, Braylay.
07:39Okay, I got him.
07:40Okay.
07:44Aw, f**k.
07:45Three deceased,
07:47one possibly looks like a juvenile.
07:49With the confirmation that Adlai
07:51has been telling the truth,
07:52at least about his mother,
07:53father, and younger sister
07:55already being dead,
07:56the deputies search him again
07:58before transporting him for questioning.
08:00Did you see their corpses?
08:01They're foaming out the mouth,
08:03but they're still convulsing.
08:04Back there.
08:05Can you find the bodies?
08:06Yeah, we found them.
08:08Their wound's healed, though.
08:10Is that normal?
08:10That's not normal.
08:12They're, like, black out the mouth.
08:14Did y'all take a picture?
08:15Did you see that?
08:16Grabbing his dog.
08:18After he's brought to the sheriff's office,
08:20Adlai is escorted to an interrogation room
08:22where his erratic behavior
08:23will only escalate,
08:25resulting in a truly shocking
08:26and troubling interview.
08:31I'm going to have him take you out of handcuffs.
08:35Go ahead and stand up.
08:37Get you out of handcuffs.
08:38It's a little easier if you stand up, okay?
08:39So, before I take you out, man,
08:43no problems, right?
08:44You're going to have to have any problems down here?
08:47No problems.
08:48No problems?
08:48Cool.
08:49While this may be true for now,
08:51Adlai will eventually cause
08:52the sheriff's department significant trouble.
08:55Just go ahead and hang tight for me.
08:56If you need anything,
08:57just knock on the door.
08:58I'll come back, okay?
09:01After some time alone,
09:04during which Adlai barely moved
09:05except to seemingly acknowledge
09:07something no one else could see,
09:09the detective returns again.
09:12Hello.
09:14Like I said, my name's Cameron.
09:16I'm with the sheriff's office.
09:18Okay, so I'm one of the detectives
09:19that's out here.
09:22Just going to come talk to you
09:25about what happened today, okay?
09:27Almost as soon as the detective returns,
09:29Adlai launches into a rambling story.
09:32So, you know,
09:34I would like to ask you a few questions
09:36about what went down.
09:38So, first off,
09:41is English your first...
09:42Around 9 p.m.,
09:44we're like facing,
09:45there's like seismic waves.
09:47So I was just aiming at cell towers,
09:49top of Big Bend,
09:50top of Seattle,
09:51and then I was hearing out
09:53a lot of seismic waves
09:54and a lot of women were hurting.
09:56So then I helped the woman
09:58and pulled coins out of her vagina
10:00and then healed her.
10:02And I aimed out some marines
10:04and next thing you know,
10:05the seismic waves would have stopped
10:07because they're only down for like 34 seconds.
10:10And next thing you know,
10:11the seismic waves wouldn't stop.
10:13My family starts to move over.
10:15And then 9.30,
10:18I'm boldly,
10:20just through this consciousness,
10:21brushes me.
10:22And then around like 9.30,
10:2310,
10:24my sister would show up,
10:26as I was told,
10:27and then I'm talking about it.
10:29There's a good one.
10:30Boom.
10:31They go rapidly.
10:32And then if you look on the police cams
10:34and a thermal imaging,
10:36I want a dog to do what happens.
10:39So there's like a major catastrophe for me.
10:42That sounds like it.
10:43So let me just...
10:44How many dogs?
10:45What's that?
10:46How many dogs?
10:47How many...
10:49I don't know.
10:51I haven't been out there.
10:52Can you write down...
10:54Sure.
10:54Yeah.
10:55Can I write something down?
10:56Sure.
11:00All right.
11:00So I'm going to continue to acknowledge
11:02around 8, 9,
11:05around 6,
11:06I'm going to say S-M-I-S-T.
11:11So it's how it's big man.
11:14What's even big man?
11:15Sure.
11:16It's probably right around this moment
11:17that the detective realizes
11:19this interrogation will be unlike any other.
11:22Okay.
11:23So before we keep going,
11:24I just need to make sure
11:25you understand a few things.
11:27Okay?
11:27Since why you're here, okay?
11:29So we brought you down to a police station.
11:31Okay?
11:32I just want to make sure
11:33you understand your rights.
11:34Okay?
11:35Have you ever had your Miranda rights
11:36told to you before?
11:38No, sir.
11:39Okay.
11:39The detective then Mirandizes him,
11:42making sure to check
11:43that Adlai understands
11:44each of his rights
11:45before continuing.
11:46Now,
11:47tell me what happened
11:48inside the house
11:49with your mom and dad
11:50and sister.
11:51Well,
11:52now I have one mom
11:54and dad and sister previously.
11:55I'm going to do a catastrophe.
11:57And it's, you know,
11:58I tried to leave.
12:01And it's, you know,
12:02come home.
12:04I'm going to stop.
12:04And I, you know,
12:06and Ms. Carson's
12:07just been,
12:07I had to.
12:10And when you say you had to,
12:11what did you have to do?
12:13Kill.
12:14Okay, he had to kill him.
12:16Okay.
12:17Anyway,
12:17I lost Carson's
12:18and I don't know what they're going to do.
12:20Okay, I raised him.
12:21They were driving back.
12:22And I'm like,
12:23half an hour later.
12:25He embodied.
12:26They were eating all of these.
12:28Grabbing the dog.
12:28During the clearing of the home,
12:40one of the deputies noticed
12:41something peculiar
12:42near the back of the house.
12:44Got a bunch of blood over here.
12:47This was cleaned up.
12:49Another noticed a blood-covered mop.
12:53Is that bleach?
12:56Adlai also mentioned
12:57that he shot
12:58one of the family's dogs.
13:00The animal was transported
13:01for emergency medical care
13:02after suffering
13:03from three gunshots.
13:05However,
13:05it could not survive its wounds
13:07and had to be euthanized.
13:09So,
13:10where was your dad
13:11when you had,
13:11when all this was happening,
13:12when you shot him?
13:14I don't know.
13:15I don't know.
13:16I don't know.
13:18Was he in his room?
13:19Yeah.
13:20Living room?
13:21I see his dumb energy camera.
13:22I mean,
13:23it's okay.
13:23Well,
13:24I'm just asking,
13:25would you want him?
13:25A 55-year-old.
13:26A 55-year-old.
13:27Yep.
13:28I've got it at the top.
13:29Where did you shoot your dad?
13:31I shot my dad in the room.
13:32In the living room?
13:34And did you shoot him?
13:36Where did you shoot him?
13:37Well,
13:38at first I was hit
13:39with him
13:40and then I was at the
13:41and then I killed him.
13:46Where did you shoot him?
13:46In the head?
13:47Did you shoot him in my chest?
13:49I shot him.
13:50What about your mom?
13:52Where did you shoot your mom at?
13:53My mom was saying,
13:54I'm saying,
13:55then I killed him.
13:56I got the floor.
13:57Though deputies found shell casings
13:59at the home,
14:00they also uncovered
14:01other evidence at the scene,
14:03including a bloody meat tenderizer
14:04and a knife.
14:06After discovering the bodies,
14:08some of the deputies at the scene
14:09speculated about how exactly
14:11Adlai's family was killed.
14:13Shot him then?
14:15There were shell casings
14:16at the house?
14:17I don't know if he shot all of them.
14:18There was a knife
14:18on the ground too
14:19with blood all over it.
14:20That's what I'm saying.
14:20I don't know if he shot all of them.
14:23What the f**k?
14:25In his interview, however,
14:26Adlai isn't adding much clarity
14:28about what happened.
14:30Well, my dad said to me,
14:31and then I don't know
14:33if he got possessed or something.
14:34Keep up the business.
14:35Possessed?
14:36Sure.
14:36So, you shot your mom.
14:39Was she upstairs or downstairs?
14:40Yeah, she was walking down
14:41to the top of the grave
14:42and I shot off from her.
14:44I brought my father
14:45and then my sister,
14:47same thing,
14:48just got scared.
14:49I shot through the wall.
14:51She raved,
14:53shot through the head.
14:55Raved and I was...
14:57killed her.
14:58And then where did you
15:00shoot your sister?
15:02Adlai emphasizes
15:11that he's referring
15:12to his younger sister
15:13as he also has
15:14an older sister,
15:15Nancy Jr.
15:17Investigators have tracked her down
15:18and the morning
15:19after Adlai's interview,
15:20they have the daunting task
15:22of informing her
15:22that most of her family
15:24has been killed.
15:27There's really no good way
15:28to tell you.
15:30So, your mom,
15:32your dad and your sister
15:33are dead.
15:35I wasn't expecting them.
15:36I was not expecting them.
15:39And unfortunately,
15:41I arrested your brother,
15:43Adlai.
15:45Our deputies went over there
15:46and your brother was there
15:49and, you know,
15:53he clearly had signs
15:56that there were some things
15:57that weren't good.
15:58So, our deputies
15:59went in
16:02and they located
16:03your mom,
16:04your dad
16:05and your sister.
16:07So...
16:08Where were they in the house?
16:15So, it looks like...
16:17So, they were actually
16:18found outside.
16:20It looks like
16:21it happened inside.
16:23And he dragged them outside.
16:24It looks that way.
16:29Where was the initial
16:30splatter at?
16:33It's hard to tell
16:34because it was everywhere.
16:40I was expecting
16:41for you guys
16:42to tell me
16:42that he's dead,
16:43not that they're dead.
16:45This is awful.
16:46I expected
16:49one day
16:50for you guys
16:51to come.
16:51I just wasn't
16:52expecting it
16:53to be
16:53my normal family.
16:57Nancy Jr.
16:58wasn't the only one
16:59who had to be informed
17:00of the tragedy.
17:01The neighbors
17:02who initially
17:02called 911
17:03were also told.
17:06Basically,
17:06what we can tell you
17:08is unfortunately
17:10David,
17:14Nancy...
17:14Oh, no!
17:15What?
17:16And...
17:17Brielle.
17:20Brielle?
17:21Brielle?
17:22Yeah.
17:23Oh, no!
17:24Wait, wait, what?
17:24They're all dead.
17:25Oh, no!
17:30Oh, no!
17:31And I was...
17:33I was the one
17:34I interviewed
17:35Adlai.
17:36Adlai, yeah.
17:37Adlai.
17:38And I arrested him
17:40for three...
17:42The three murders.
17:42No!
17:43What?
17:44Why?
17:46I'm...
17:47I wish I had
17:48more answers.
17:49Oh, God!
17:50Oh, God!
17:51Not Brielle!
17:53Really?
17:54Really?
17:55What the f*** happened?
17:57Was it all today?
17:59It looks like
18:00they were killed
18:01at some point today.
18:02We're not exactly sure.
18:04We heard the shots
18:05at whatever time
18:07it was.
18:07It could have been.
18:08It could have been.
18:09I mean,
18:10there were
18:10multiple
18:11multiple gunshots
18:13to each of them.
18:15So, we're just not...
18:16We're not sure.
18:17So, we have to wait...
18:18To each of them?
18:20Why would you not?
18:21Kill his sister?
18:22I know!
18:23So, kill his sister?
18:24I know, I know.
18:26So...
18:26The girl?
18:27Just to prepare you guys.
18:29Okay?
18:30The house...
18:31It's not good.
18:34There's...
18:34A lot of blood everywhere.
18:37Just...
18:37Being honest.
18:39As those who knew
18:40the mestre is real
18:41from this news,
18:42back in Adlai's interview,
18:43the detective continues
18:44to try and make sense
18:45of his story.
18:47Where was...
18:47So, where did you take them
18:49after you shot them?
18:50Well, I buried them.
18:51So, there's like a...
18:52There's like a trail.
18:53Okay.
18:54And then...
18:54And then I opened the gate,
18:56take a right,
18:57and I was going down the trail,
18:59and I put them all
19:01in the ravine.
19:02And why did you
19:03put them in the ravine?
19:05Because I was constantly
19:06taking pictures.
19:07Can you write some down?
19:08Yeah, I'll give it to you.
19:09Let me...
19:10I'm not...
19:10I feel like you're tampering.
19:11I'm not tampering.
19:12They think.
19:12I'll show you what I'm writing.
19:14How about I write home?
19:15Okay?
19:18Very good.
19:20Commissions.
19:23Commissions.
19:24Try.
19:25Try to kill me.
19:26Try to kill me.
19:28I'm never gonna see what you do.
19:29I'm never gonna see you.
19:32To kill me.
19:35I'm not consciousness.
19:37In her interview,
19:38Adlai's sister elaborated
19:39on why he may have been
19:40referring to possession
19:41in his interview.
19:43And we're having a baby,
19:44and he killed off
19:44everybody else.
19:46It's fucking nuts.
19:47This is fucking ridiculous.
19:48Jesus.
19:49What a piece of shit.
19:50I'm sorry,
19:51but what the fuck
19:51is wrong with me?
19:54There's...
19:54A lot.
19:55A lot.
19:55Yeah.
19:56It just kept being brushed off.
19:58Yeah.
19:58My mom kept saying,
20:00oh, he's just possessed.
20:01He's not fucking possessed.
20:03Yeah, he talked about possession.
20:05It's clear that something else
20:06is going on with Adlai,
20:07and so the detective
20:08attempts to get more information.
20:11Uh, have you ever been
20:12to the doctor at all
20:14for any type of
20:15mental health issues?
20:17Oh, yeah.
20:18I've probably been to the haven
20:18for, you know,
20:20curses.
20:21People used to curse me.
20:22I feel like my family's curse.
20:23Oh, really?
20:24I don't feel like
20:25I'm a family's curse.
20:27And why do you say that?
20:29I don't know.
20:30It's just...
20:31I always say something
20:33and my voice changed.
20:35Oh, wow.
20:36At the scene,
20:36deputies found
20:37discharge paperwork
20:38from September,
20:39indicating that Adlai
20:40had received help
20:41for his mental health.
20:42Tell them to surrender
20:43inventory hallucinations.
20:46Yeah.
20:46Hearing voices.
20:49Let's make sure
20:50we photograph that.
20:50Discharge diagnosis.
20:52End of September.
20:53September.
20:53They said he's not
20:54homicidal or suicidal.
20:56So they discharged him.
20:58Well, yeah.
20:59Yeah.
20:59Something changed.
21:00Yeah.
21:03So he was hearing voices,
21:04men and women voices.
21:09That is bizarre.
21:11When was that?
21:12David's?
21:13August?
21:14No.
21:17September 27th,
21:192024.
21:20Not too long ago.
21:21Adlai is a 24-year-old male.
21:22Adlai admitted to psychosis,
21:25presenting with
21:26command auditory hallucinations.
21:28He states,
21:28I'm hearing voices
21:29and the women are telling me
21:30to surrender to police force
21:31and come to my reality
21:33and the men are telling me
21:34to kill myself.
21:35He stated the voices
21:36have been present for years,
21:37but he has not paid attention
21:38to them.
21:38The patient stated
21:39that he went to the police
21:40to see if they had intelligence
21:41about his reality
21:42and might be interested
21:43in employing him
21:44into the police force.
21:45He states that he has planned
21:46to apply to the police academy
21:48after discharge.
21:49Adlai's older sister
21:50also had some insight
21:51into his mental health.
21:53I mean,
21:53did he have any...
21:55Indications that he wanted
21:56to kill him?
21:57No.
21:57Yeah, okay.
21:58No.
21:58No, so there was nothing that...
22:00Did he hear voices?
22:01Yes.
22:02Yeah.
22:03Okay.
22:04And was he supposed
22:05to be taking medication?
22:06Yes, and I'm pretty sure
22:08that's why.
22:09Because even I started
22:11getting on his ass about it.
22:12Okay, like that he wasn't
22:14taking it?
22:14Yeah.
22:14Oh, okay.
22:16And I'm 100% sure
22:18that that's why
22:18because they were all
22:19probably stressing him
22:20about that.
22:23My mom had found
22:24the pills in the trash.
22:27Like his schizophrenic break.
22:30It's been in the buildup,
22:32but he's been acting normal
22:33for months.
22:35Perhaps realizing
22:36that the interview
22:37isn't going anywhere productive,
22:39the detective attempts
22:40to take a break.
22:41I gotta go talk
22:42to my partner
22:43and try to figure out
22:43what all happened
22:45and we gotta figure this out.
22:46Okay?
22:47If you need anything,
22:47just knock on the door
22:48and just say hello
22:49and I'll come back
22:51and help you
22:52with whatever you need, okay?
22:54Alright?
22:55Sounds good.
22:56We'll talk to you soon.
22:57There he goes.
22:58Oh, okay.
23:03What else would you like to...
23:05What's he talking about?
23:05The room.
23:07What's that?
23:08Review.
23:09Well, you got...
23:10got family child.
23:12Try to say...
23:13What's it?
23:14Tragic cursing.
23:14Tragic cursing.
23:15Tragic cursing.
23:15Tragic cursing.
23:15Tragic cursing.
23:19Tragic cursing.
23:20Tragic cursing.
23:20Tragic cursing.
23:22Tragic cursing.
23:23Yeah, you broke that
23:24a bunch up there.
23:25Once again,
23:26the detective attempts
23:27to leave the room.
23:29May you please,
23:29may you please not alter?
23:31I will not alter it.
23:32You'll get a copy of these.
23:34You'll get a copy
23:34when we're done.
23:35Okay?
23:36Despite being left alone,
23:38Adlai soon begins
23:39to talk to himself.
23:41Fucking officer Adriel,
23:42but I'm Jesus.
23:43That's not me.
23:45Period.
23:47I ain't no Adriel.
23:48No frackers.
23:50I brought y'all to go ahead
23:51and pull this,
23:53pull some strings,
23:54let's make you an officer,
23:56the sheriff.
23:57Let's make it happen.
23:57I don't deserve,
23:59I don't deserve to spend
24:00life in prison
24:01over a catastrophe.
24:03I ain't no officer angel,
24:05bloodline Jesus.
24:06No such thing.
24:07Jesus was not conceived.
24:09You know what y'all believe?
24:10Officer angels,
24:11y'all believe there's
24:12bloodline Jesus.
24:13I'm talking.
24:16Officer med straight.
24:17Admiral med straight.
24:19Matter of fact,
24:20Admiral med straight.
24:23Admiral med straight.
24:24As things grow even stranger,
24:35Adlai begins directing
24:36his ramblings towards someone
24:37that no one else can see.
24:40No, no,
24:41that ain't no Adriel.
24:42Adriel,
24:43do not repeat
24:43after the frackers.
24:45Order's orders.
24:47Yeah.
24:48Yeah.
24:48Yeah.
24:48Yeah.
24:48Big A-A.
24:58Admiral Big A-D.
25:00Admiral Big A-D.
25:01You got it?
25:08Put him in the capsule.
25:09Put him in,
25:09put him in the container.
25:10Admiral Big A-D.
25:12Orders are orders.
25:15You know what I'm saying?
25:15Like,
25:16can't even do it.
25:17So right now,
25:18just...
25:23You got more detail?
25:28Fine,
25:29break?
25:30Adlai takes a quick break
25:31from his monologue
25:32to relieve himself
25:33in the corner of the room.
25:35Y'all just trying to kill me!
25:36Give me life!
25:40Honestly,
25:41you want to put it on me?
25:43I'm honestly powerless
25:46right now.
25:56After being in the room alone
25:58for about 40 minutes,
25:59Adlai begins to grow
26:00more distressed.
26:02Tell me,
26:03I'll lock the door!
26:06I can't.
26:09I can't.
26:10We shall open the door,
26:11please.
26:11Nah,
26:13can you just let me out?
26:15Look,
26:15we got him.
26:17Bro,
26:17can you just let me out?
26:24Bro,
26:24y'all suck,
26:25man!
26:27Angel!
26:29Look,
26:30he has his own brain!
26:34That's what I'm saying!
26:38I'm commanding you!
26:40What is he doing?
26:41Angel,
26:45come on!
26:46Open the door!
26:48Who else is coming?
26:50Nobody?
26:55What?
26:56Why is she controlling?
26:58Adlai's conversation
26:59with himself
26:59is interrupted
27:00as the detective returns.
27:02Are they coming?
27:03What are they?
27:04What are they?
27:04What are they doing?
27:05Who are you?
27:06How's it going?
27:07All right.
27:07It's the Texas Carol.
27:08Go ahead and sit down
27:09for me,
27:09okay?
27:09All right.
27:12So,
27:12that's gross.
27:14That's all right.
27:15You should have told us,
27:15dude.
27:15We would have
27:16taken you to the bathroom,
27:17bro.
27:17All right.
27:17What I need you to do, man,
27:23is just take a deep breath,
27:24okay?
27:25Mm-hmm.
27:25Okay?
27:26We got a lot to do,
27:27so just take a deep breath.
27:29Okay,
27:29you've been yelling a bunch.
27:30You doing okay?
27:32May you please release me?
27:33What's that?
27:34May you please release me?
27:35Release you where?
27:37From this?
27:38We can't, man.
27:40And we can't,
27:41so it's going to be
27:42a little while.
27:43Just hang tight,
27:43okay?
27:44Please.
27:44Are you going to send
27:45more soldiers?
27:46We have no soldiers here,
27:47man.
27:48We're all just cops.
27:50Are you going to send
27:51more soldiers?
27:52He's not a soldier.
27:53He's a cop.
27:54He's a deputy.
27:55All right.
27:55Am I going to spend the night?
27:57You're going to spend the night
27:58probably in jail.
27:59Nice.
28:00Okay.
28:01So,
28:01we'll be back,
28:02but I just need you to
28:03simmer down a little bit,
28:04okay?
28:05No,
28:06I don't care.
28:06There's a whole bunch
28:07of nice things.
28:09Yeah,
28:09it's a pretty rough day,
28:10man.
28:10You've had a rough day
28:11for sure.
28:12Yeah.
28:13So,
28:13just take a deep breath
28:14for me,
28:15all right?
28:18Despite the detective's
28:19request,
28:20Adlai would not be
28:21simmering down
28:21any time soon.
28:23In fact,
28:24this is when things
28:25take a turn.
28:26You wipe the camera?
28:29That's cold.
28:36As soon as Adlai escapes
28:58from the interrogation room,
28:59he heads for the elevators.
29:01Alerted by the sound
29:02of the wall breaking,
29:03it's only seconds
29:04before the deputies
29:05catch him.
29:07Oh,
29:08f***.
29:09No.
29:12Put your hands down.
29:13Turn around.
29:14We won't die by.
29:15Turn around.
29:15Put your hands
29:16behind your back.
29:17Turn around,
29:18put your hands
29:18behind your back.
29:18F***.
29:20Put your hands
29:21behind your back.
29:25All right.
29:26You done?
29:27I got it.
29:28I got it.
29:29He kicked a hole
29:30in the f***ing hole.
29:31Jesus Christ.
29:35Adlai,
29:35what are you doing,
29:36brother?
29:37You're all losing.
29:39No,
29:39we don't lose.
29:40I'm going to
29:41have a bunch of
29:42energy lit on me.
29:43I become powerful.
29:45Well,
29:45let's not be powerful
29:46now, okay?
29:47I just need you
29:48to relax.
29:50Realizing that
29:50the walls
29:51in the sheriff's office
29:52are ill-equipped
29:52to hold Adlai,
29:53they decide to secure
29:54him in a police vehicle.
29:57After some
29:57cooling down time,
29:59Adlai is once again
30:00brought inside
30:00in order to be
30:01photographed,
30:02to give a buckle
30:03swab sample,
30:04and to have his
30:04clothing collected.
30:06He's then given
30:06a temporary suit
30:07to wear and is
30:08escorted to the
30:09vehicle again
30:10and then to jail.
30:12Back in the car.
30:15When they arrive,
30:16Adlai is led
30:17to a holding cell.
30:18Before his sister
30:19was left to grieve
30:20the loss of her family,
30:21Nancy Jr.
30:22offered some
30:22possible insight
30:23into what may have
30:24sparked this horrific
30:25event.
30:26I guarantee you
30:27like they were
30:28getting on his ass.
30:30He already had
30:31some strife
30:31with my sister.
30:32Oh, really?
30:33Mm-hmm.
30:34Over what?
30:35Just because she's
30:36a teen.
30:37Yeah.
30:38She's a teen.
30:39She's a normal
30:40teenager.
30:41She has attitude.
30:42No, she doesn't.
30:43She didn't.
30:44No, none of this
30:46was supposed to happen.
30:47Like, someone who's
30:49schizophrenic and thinks
30:51that somebody's out
30:51to get him and
30:52she's probably,
30:55that's why I asked
30:57if the door was
30:58broken in because
30:58if she was the
30:59first one,
31:00I would not be
31:00surprised.
31:01I've been a cop
31:04a long time
31:04and I've been
31:05in homicide
31:06for a long time
31:07and this one
31:08was definitely
31:09one I'll never
31:11forget.
31:12It was,
31:13I mean,
31:16it was insane.
31:18Yeah.
31:19When he was
