00:30This is lead number 14-1 with the Major K-Squad.
00:40I want to interview you in reference to what transpired on 3rd.
00:46Right.
00:46Okay.
00:47I was working that day.
00:48I went home on lunch.
00:53And actually, I live early right around the corner.
01:00I heard somebody knock on the door, knocked on him again, and Willie that works at the
01:17convenience store, he was there.
01:19And he said, Ross is dead, Ross is dead.
01:26So I just ran out.
01:29I didn't know what kind of situation it was.
01:31Went out the door, it was cracked, I could see the TV on.
01:50You know, the stench, I mean, it was bad.
01:53I just put my head inside the door.
02:07I called the chief.
02:09Like, hey, we got a party over here.
02:11Like, hey, we got a party over here.
02:41I was the deputy chief for the Cahokia Police Department.
03:08I was contacted about a body found on Elm Street in Cahokia.
03:15We believe the deceased was Jermaine Ross, the barber in the area.
03:20But we didn't know it for sure.
03:22Apparently, Jermaine had missed some appointments with some clients.
03:25And so they decided to go check on him at his home.
03:27And when they got there, they noticed the smell.
03:33And they noticed that the windows were covered with flies, like a black tarp across the window.
03:38When I arrived at the house on Elm Street, I could tell something wasn't right.
03:49I met with the officer from Cahokia PD, and he said, he's just dead.
03:59It's natural.
04:00Don't see any injuries.
04:02It really smells in there.
04:03And I'm going to wait outside, and you can do what you are supposed to do,
04:07as far as taking pictures and processing the scene.
04:21The deceased is immediately on the right, sitting on the couch as you walk through the door.
04:26He's completely unclothed, naked as can be.
04:29The smell of a decaying body is very, very putrid.
04:37You have to sort of turn your mind off to it and focus on the job at hand.
04:44The home is fairly disorganized, but nothing in the home appeared to have been the result of a struggle.
04:54There are a lot of flies.
04:56The flies tend to like the body, so they'll eat until they're full.
05:00They'll fly away to lay eggs, and then they'll crawl as maggots back to the body.
05:06And it was obvious by the level of decomposition that he had been dead for at least a couple of days.
05:16Examining the body, I didn't observe anything that I could readily say was an injury.
05:22After a body starts to decompose, it makes it very difficult to see if there's any type of a puncture wound,
05:28or entry wound, or exit wound, or anything like that.
05:32But there was something very unusual on the body.
05:36There's a coffee table in front of him.
05:39On the coffee table, there was a can of abrasive cleaner
05:42that is not normally used in the living room.
05:48And the victim also had it dusted all over his crotch.
05:55I also located what appeared to be the cleaner
05:59moistened and wiped onto the deadbolt and the interior doorknob.
06:03Seeing things like that out of place leads me to believe that it wasn't a natural death.
06:13Because that was just weird, like very strange, and then like seeing it on the door
06:17and having that, aha, like this is definitely wrong.
06:23At this point, we had no idea what had happened.
06:25So we needed an autopsy to be conducted.
06:31The coroner's office had x-rays done.
06:34And the forensic pathologist found the bullet projectile that pierced the heart.
06:40The entry was in the buttocks.
06:42It traveled up through his body, through the core of his body, and struck his heart.
06:50We knew it was no longer a mystery.
06:52Jermaine Ross, he'd been murdered.
06:55After we completed the autopsy, I returned to the house
07:02and found a bullet defect or a bullet hole
07:05from the wood frame of the back of the couch.
07:11Of course, we didn't know who has wanted Jermaine dead.
07:16It could have been anybody at that point in time.
07:18So the Major K Squad was immediately activated.
07:33The Major K Squad is the NATO of police.
07:36This is an alliance of local law enforcement.
07:40So when there's a big case, the Illinois State Police, local police departments,
07:45everybody pitches in to move with a great deal of speed.
07:48We started the canvas just looking for any bit of information, anything at all.
08:00Maybe that somebody saw something.
08:04People that we talked to about this are like, oh, is that because Nelm Street?
08:07Any time the Major K Squad is activated, it is certainly noticed by the media.
08:14The media was definitely paying attention to this case from the very beginning.
08:19Cahokia is right outside of St. Louis, and the community is very small, so it's very tight-knit.
08:26It was shocking because Jermaine Ross was a well-legged guy.
08:30He owned a local barbershop not far from his house in Cahokia that hadn't been closed down.
08:37He had had a fire, so that put him out of business for a period of time.
08:42He was still trying to cut hair, but he was cutting hair out of his house,
08:46or he would just go to other people's houses.
08:49Mr. Ross knew a lot of people.
08:51He had a lot of social connections from people coming in the barbershop.
08:55So you could have a potentially large pool of people who could be suspects.
09:00We didn't have much information.
09:06But all of a sudden, we get a neighbor saying that she has some information about Jermaine Ross.
09:13Yeah, obviously, as you can see, we are recording now.
09:16I know it's kind of repetitive, but the goal, we're getting up to a name.
09:20Sunday night, around between midnight and one, I heard two gunshots called Pop Pop.
09:30I looked out my back window.
09:42Spaces.
09:42Spaces.
09:43Ross' kitchen window.
09:45Pitch dark out, no lights on in Ross' house.
09:47And now we have a good time frame of when this murder occurred.
10:05And apparently, Mr. Ross was having some other issues in the neighborhood.
10:10You were neighbors with Ross, neighborly with him?
10:12Um, we spoke.
10:13You know, I mean, I lived here for years.
10:15Ross always told us before his door has been kicked in and that people was after him.
10:31But I didn't know what was going on.
10:49Clearly, investigators had to find this person that was threatening Jermaine Ross.
10:53Because they are still somewhere out there within the community.
11:01I was at home and I received a call.
11:21It was like 12 o'clock at night and I was trying to go to sleep.
11:2415 minutes later, I got another call from my sister.
11:31And that's when I realized something was going on.
11:33She told me that, uh, they found our uncle dead.
11:39It was devastating.
11:40I broke down and started crying because I couldn't believe it.
11:46If you knew him, you knew he was a good person.
11:48Jermaine was my baby brother.
11:54He wasn't perfect, but Jermaine was a person that reached out and helped people.
12:01He was a community person.
12:04You know, he had a heart.
12:08His passion was barbering.
12:11He loved to cut hair.
12:12After the shop burned down, he was cutting out of his house.
12:19You know, he was going to figure out a way.
12:23Children whose parents did not have money for cutting their hair for school,
12:28Jermaine felt that these children needed to keep their appearances.
12:32Even though they didn't have money, Jermaine reached out to do that from his heart.
12:38It was vibrant.
12:39You know, some of them just come in just to hang out with him.
12:43That's the kind of person he was.
12:45His barbershop was really just people's barbershop.
12:51For them to walk away and leave a person's body like that is not...
12:57Yeah.
13:02Yeah, it, uh...
13:03Jermaine was the type of person that speaks his mind.
13:11The last time I seen him, he told me that I have some problems with some people over here.
13:16He never told me why was he into it with anybody.
13:25He just said that, you know, he had problems with people.
13:33He says, I got it taken care of, you know, I keep a gun on me and whatnot.
13:36I said, a gun ain't gonna matter, Jermaine, if somebody run up on you, you know.
13:39And so he said, okay, whatever, man.
13:43And then he told me that he wasn't afraid to die.
13:49And sure enough, two months later or so, he was dead.
13:54It was almost like he knew something was gonna happen, but he just didn't know what.
14:05Cahokia is almost literally in the shadow of the St. Louis Arch.
14:11It's part of the state of Illinois that is right across the Mississippi River from the city of St. Louis.
14:18This is a very tight-knit community.
14:21People care about each other.
14:24But, uh, you do have some really challenging poverty.
14:29Some of the conditions are pretty difficult for some people.
14:34Sometimes you have situations where people don't trust, uh, the police, and so they don't want to say anything.
14:40Or they may be fearful for their own safety.
14:43They just don't want to be involved.
14:46But in this case, you had many people in the community immediately call the police.
14:50You got in your hair cut by Ross before?
14:55Yeah.
14:55Okay.
14:56He was a pretty cool dude, man.
14:57You know what I'm saying?
14:58He ain't really bothered nobody.
14:59You know what I'm saying?
15:00Yeah.
15:00Talked a lot.
15:01You know what I'm saying?
15:01And drunk a lot.
15:02But he didn't seem like he was in trouble with me or nothing like that.
15:05Yeah.
15:05But Jermaine Ross is well-known within the, the small area that he lived.
15:10And when we did our campuses, people were willing to talk.
15:13But when he cut out her, it was funny because he had a, a pistol in it, and it's the barbacoy.
15:24Finding witnesses who maybe observe some things that can explain how things unfolded, that is absolutely critical to these type of investigations.
15:32He had a gun that was a chrome and black, a .380.
15:37Somebody had stolen it from the shop.
15:38They stole it from his barbershop.
15:40He was mad about them.
15:42He said he, he had a lot of problems over here.
15:44Yeah, he had a lot of problems.
15:46What was causing those problems?
15:49I, I don't really know.
15:51I don't.
15:52There will be gossip.
15:53There will be rumors.
15:55There will be a lot of speculation.
15:57Yeah, because I heard something about one little guy, a little young guy beat him up maybe like four or five months ago.
16:02I'm like, man, what you should need to be hanging out and drinking with these little guys?
16:05Big challenge for law enforcement is to be able to find, within all those various strands of information, good, cold, hard facts.
16:15What did he come into this money for?
16:18The insurance off his bills, his barbershop he had.
16:21His barbershop, it caught fire, correct?
16:23Yes, sir.
16:23And how long ago was that he got?
16:24He got it about two weeks ago.
16:32Investigators learned that Jermaine had recently come into some insurance money after his barbershop burned down.
16:41And this is something that he talked about very openly.
16:43Jermaine grew up working at an early age, but he never had a lot of money.
16:53The money that he got from the insurance company.
16:57And he told me he had 25-something, but, you know, that's my baby brother.
17:00And sometimes he's telling me things I don't feel like it's really accurate, you know.
17:07But apparently it was true.
17:08So he said he had ran into a little money?
17:13Yeah, because he was telling everybody he had about $10,000 in cash.
17:17So he wasn't hiding it?
17:18No.
17:18Yeah, he showed it.
17:19He showed it to me.
17:21What, was it just a big wad?
17:22It was in a yellow envelope, about that thick.
17:25And I asked the man, what is he doing, right?
17:28He needs to have that much money in the bank.
17:29I said, he's got to be crazy.
17:32It seems like he was actually flashing large amounts of money, kind of showing it off.
17:36He's having issues with people.
17:39He comes into some money, and then he's getting threatened.
17:41Was he talking about anything?
17:42He told me a guy was talking about robbing him.
17:44I said, you need to keep your mouth shut and stop telling these people that you got money.
17:48Best of you over here by yourself.
17:49Then he pulled out his little gun he had on the side.
17:52He said, I got something for that .
17:53Did he say who that was that was talking about robbing him?
17:56No, he never told me.
17:56I don't know none of the guys he deal with over there.
17:58I don't know none of them.
17:59But the only cash that investigators found was a couple hundred dollar bills that were crammed
18:08under the mattress.
18:10The large amount of money was not found.
18:13If there had been cash there, that cash was gone.
18:16On October 3rd, earlier in the day, we get a call at the police department, a lady saying
18:26that she has some information about the Jermaine Ross, a lady by the name of Melinda Graves.
18:34They lived in the same area, and she knew him as the barber.
18:38When Melinda Graves arrived at the police department, she was scared, nervous.
18:45She said those people were saying, I killed him, and I stole his money, and listen, I didn't
18:48do that.
18:50But she had been at Jermaine's house, and she was afraid that she was being accused of it,
18:55and she felt threatened.
18:57Melinda is being threatened by the man in a black car.
19:01This man is demanding that she turn over to him whatever money she stole from Jermaine Ross.
19:10And so she wanted to tell the police what she knew.
19:15Melinda says that she has a friend that she was hanging out with on the Saturday night,
19:19and that woman's name was Jasmine Madison.
19:25Jasmine has a relationship with Jermaine.
19:27So they walk from Jasmine's house over to Jermaine Ross' house.
19:34Jasmine says that Jermaine recently acquired a lot of money, and he was going to spend that
19:42money having a good time.
19:45They were partying with him.
19:48They left, and he was still alive.
19:50Melinda is very adamant that she did not kill Jermaine Ross, and that Jasmine didn't either.
20:02Her story made sense that if she was being accused, that she might feel that she was in harm's way.
20:08And in cases like this, it's almost always a male shooter as opposed to a female shooter.
20:13Clearly, one of the people that needed to be found as quickly as possible was whoever this is that's
20:20driving around in a black car threatening Melinda Graves.
20:25And we knew someone had been threatening, Jermaine Ross, as well.
20:29At this point, police were concerned that if Melinda was right, the killer wasn't just hiding.
20:34They were circling.
20:35The other person to find is Jasmine Madison.
20:45Melinda's only person that we had talked to who said,
20:48I was there, and we knew that Jasmine was with her.
20:51So we needed to find out if she was telling the truth.
20:55And we were reaching out to anyone and everyone in the community who may know Jasmine Madison
21:00to figure out where she may be hanging out.
21:02But at that point, Jasmine Madison is nowhere to be found.
21:10And we became very concerned about Jasmine.
21:13We had to think about the worst possibilities.
21:18Was she abducted or was she killed?
21:23Or did she have something to do with it and she was just hiding out?
21:26It's likely she's an important witness in this case.
21:34And so she is particularly vulnerable from whoever was involved in this murder.
21:38After Jermaine was murdered, he was cremated.
22:05They gave my oldest sister his ashes.
22:13And Jermaine used to always say, if he ever died before her, he's going to come back and get up.
22:18Okay.
22:19So anyway, I'm at her house and she's saying some black things flying around, flying around.
22:24And my sister said, it's Jermaine.
22:30And that's what he said he was going to do.
22:32And believe it or not, yes.
22:36He said he's going to fly in there many times.
22:42I believe he would try to do that just to be funny because that's the kind of person he was.
22:46You know, he wants you to know, I'm here.
22:49I'm around.
23:03Jasmine Madison and Melinda Graves were the last people to see Jermaine alive.
23:08This is according to Melinda because Jasmine's nowhere to be found.
23:11Jasmine lived within walking distance of Jermaine.
23:19And we knew that she might be in harm's way.
23:23And we didn't know if she was still alive.
23:28Jasmine Madison needed to be found as quickly as possible.
23:31It became even more urgent for the police to go back to Melinda to see if they can pull any more information out of her.
23:45She was scared, somewhat frantic.
23:50And her story changes.
23:52It's like, can you just go through your story one more time?
23:55It was frustrating.
23:57But that turned out to be a key moment.
23:59Melinda says that Jermaine actually goes to the bedroom, gets some money out, shows it to him.
24:17And he takes the money back to the bedroom.
24:20Melinda goes to use the bathroom.
24:22Melinda told investigators that Jasmine and Jermaine had been hooking up.
24:38She decided to make herself scarce to give them some privacy and began wandering around the house.
24:43She's admitting that they're going to do this lick, a robbery.
24:53Obviously, it looks bad for Melinda and for Jasmine both.
24:59She told police,
25:00Melinda takes care of her younger brother.
25:06I believe she was his guardian.
25:09How was your brother?
25:10What?
25:11No.
25:12So you're just in a bad spot right now?
25:14Yeah.
25:14I'm actually.
25:16Yeah.
25:17Her house burnt down.
25:19And she needed a deposit for this new place that she was going to take her brother to.
25:23So this was her opportunity, and she was desperate.
25:29I didn't find a plane, so it was pointless.
25:38Eventually, she rejoined Jermaine and Jasmine, and that's when she heard Jermaine make a phone call.
25:47And you made a phone call for some cocaine or whatever.
25:50Five, maybe seven in the boat, dude coming in the door.
25:56He's not even not going to do anything.
25:58He just comes straight in.
26:01Melinda said that she did not know who it was.
26:03It's not somebody that she'd ever seen before.
26:06When he do, he's a couch right here, and there's a couch right here, and the window's right here by this house.
26:10So when he come in, he's a boy right here.
26:12So when he come in or whatever, he's standing like this for a dude,
26:16but his hand on his side.
26:17He had a black face on with a car on it with two pockets on it and whatever.
26:22So he got his hand right here and whatever.
26:24He's talking to me.
26:25He's like, where the money is?
26:26He's like, man, your money right there and whatever.
26:27He's like, no, nigga, where the money is?
26:29They pulled his gun out.
26:30Come in.
26:31Where's your money now?
26:34Where the s*** is the money at?
26:39I'm shocked.
26:40That was my people to f***ing potter.
26:42Melinda said she and Jasmine ran for their lives, but she did have one piece of information.
26:52A black four-wheel car head came up.
26:55They did see the killer's car outside.
26:57It was black, four doors, with a dent in the passenger side.
27:01Melinda was genuinely afraid that the man would try to find her and kill her as well.
27:11As we go along in the investigation, Melinda Grace's initial story was so simple.
27:30We went from just partying to going home and everybody's alive to, yeah, we went over there
27:34and now Jermaine Ross is dead and the drug dealer did it.
27:39What seems off is the fact that she's changing her story.
27:45Investigators didn't know if Melinda was a sadistic, cold-blooded killer that they needed
27:49to get off the streets or if she might end up the same as Jermaine.
27:55It could be that Melinda didn't mention the drug dealer because it was somebody that she knew.
28:00Maybe he knew her.
28:02Maybe she was afraid of him.
28:03Or maybe she really didn't know who he was.
28:08But Melinda gave us a description of the drug dealer's car.
28:13So a big part of any murder case that's being investigated is a neighborhood canvas.
28:19And we had a bit of good luck.
28:21There's video evidence that's obtained from the security cameras.
28:25We locate a car that's driving in that area that matches that description.
28:32There was a man in the neighborhood in the immediate area there who drove a car very similar
28:37to what Melinda had described.
28:41He went by the name of Modi.
28:43So we did talk to him.
28:45And the driver just so happens to know Jermaine.
28:51And so that seems like a connection.
28:54At this point, police were thinking this could be their killer.
29:01So what do you know, man?
29:03Tell me what you know.
29:04Oh, man.
29:05Okay.
29:06Jermaine Ross' murder was shocking.
29:33And investigators had no idea if this was an isolated incident.
29:38But they located the vehicle that Melinda Graves described at Jermaine Ross' home the night
29:44of the murder.
29:45It turns out the driver also knows Jasmine Madison, the only other witness to the crime
29:51who has disappeared.
29:51So let me ask you something.
29:54Do you know, do you know, do you see?
29:56I move on.
29:57Okay.
29:59So you need something on the wall, so?
30:00Yeah, I just need something on the stove most of the time.
30:02You want something to cut her.
30:03You never come out here, though.
30:06Why was your car identified the night of his passing?
30:11Of Mr. Watson's passing?
30:13Yeah, that's been positive.
30:15What were you going to say?
30:16I was at home.
30:16Oh, I'm very glad that you were at home.
30:18Oh, everybody.
30:20Okay.
30:20Everybody.
30:22So, do you know where Jasmine holds up?
30:24No.
30:25Does Jasmine come over here, honestly?
30:27Uh, yes.
30:27Come over here, sometimes.
30:29What's what time she's going to?
30:31What, Sunday?
30:32Okay.
30:33What's she at?
30:34No, two.
30:35Oh, man.
30:36No, hold on.
30:37Just have a second.
30:38All right.
30:40At that point, I thought that we were on to something.
30:44All right.
30:44It turns out the driver wasn't a drug dealer, like Melinda had claimed, and he had an alibi
30:57the night of the murder, so he wasn't their guy.
31:02Even though he didn't know Jasmine, it's such a close-knit area right there.
31:08Everyone knows everybody.
31:09We follow up on every single lead, and that particular warrant ended up being a dead end.
31:17It was nothing.
31:18It was frustrating.
31:23Without any leads, we're back at square one.
31:26As police continued to canvass the neighborhood, a resident came forward who said Jermaine had
31:37fallen on tough times.
31:38To have a pretty good understanding of how difficult the financial circumstances were for Mr. Ross,
31:47it turns out he didn't even have running water at that residence.
31:50And you've got to be pretty down on your luck if you don't even have water coming into your house.
31:58So when he got some cash, he was working on getting his water turned back on.
32:05He was just happy to have some money, and that night, and probably just wanted to have a good time,
32:13which was something he probably wasn't able to do very often.
32:18He didn't splurge about his money at all.
32:23He didn't have a lot, but you wouldn't think that.
32:28He let people stay with him that needed the place to stay.
32:31No charge, no rent, no nothing.
32:33You know, he'd give his shirt off his back.
32:34He was that person.
32:36He was a given person.
32:52The night of the murder, Melinda said that she was at Jermaine's home with her friend Jasmine,
32:57and that's the one person who could corroborate her story.
33:02But there's no word on her whereabouts.
33:04If we're looking for somebody in the day of modern technology, it's relatively simple to find people.
33:12And so if it comes a little bit difficult, you start to wonder, has something happened to that person?
33:17Jasmine Madison was a very critical witness in this case, and potentially a suspect.
33:24The Major K Squad does a very good job of being able to find people.
33:30And in this case, they were able to locate where she was through other witnesses and people that knew her.
33:37She was afraid to talk to the police because she had some outstanding warrants, and she was hiding out.
33:44And through some sweet talking, we convinced her to come in and talk to us.
33:52Once they were able to talk to her, a picture of what happened began to emerge.
34:00Unless you're here to tell me the truth about me.
34:03I didn't even tell you the truth.
34:04You told me your story that I don't need to talk to you anymore.
34:07That turned out to be a key moment.
34:09I'm not a mother.
34:10Are you here to tell me the truth now?
34:12I didn't do it again.
34:14I didn't do it again.
34:14So at this point, we have three stories.
34:35We have the first story that Melinda Graves told law enforcement.
34:40And then we have the second story that Melinda Graves told law enforcement that accuses some unknown male of being the person that robbed and killed Mr. Ross.
34:52And now we have a third story.
34:55And that is the story from Jasmine Madison of her involvement.
34:59And she gave a story that some points were similar to Melinda's, but were a little bit more extreme.
35:09Jasmine's story actually started similarly.
35:31Her and Melinda did walk over to Jermaine Ross' house.
35:36Jasmine says that she and Jermaine did have a romantic relationship.
35:39an ongoing one.
35:42And that she knew that he had a sum of money from an insurance settlement.
35:48And Jermaine did bring out some money.
35:51Then after he put it away, she and Jermaine were having intercourse on the couch.
36:01And that Melinda showed up with Jermaine's handgun.
36:07Melinda wanted the money.
36:09She ended up shooting Jermaine two times.
36:16I don't have nothing to do with this.
36:19I don't have nothing to happen.
36:21Jasmine's story was that after Melinda had shot Jermaine, Melinda tells her to pour this cleansing agent on his genital area and his legs.
36:29And Jasmine says she just grabs her clothes and just bolts out of the house naked and heads for home.
36:34One of the things that makes Jasmine Madison's story more believable is that unlike Melinda Graves, Jasmine Madison's story does not change.
36:49In addition to that, it was established from multiple sources and multiple witnesses that very quickly, Melinda was spending some of that money.
37:00One of the key individuals that law enforcement speaks to is the younger brother of Melinda Graves.
37:22He overheard Jasmine Madison and Melinda Graves talking about going over to Mr. Ross's house and they were going to take his money.
37:33Part of her brother's interview was that they took the Metrolink to St. Louis and that the gun was in a lunchbox and that it was disposed of somewhere on the arch grounds.
37:46So the big question of where is the firearm is answered by this young man who is simply telling the truth.
37:57We went back to Melinda Graves confronting her with this new information, confronting her with these facts and trying to see if she ultimately will tell the truth.
38:08This is a tough act right here and I'm slowly chunked apart with all your lines.
38:14If there are things that you put into your story that just didn't happen, okay, and we got Jasmine's side, okay, we got a story and you're trying to make it up, this is your opportunity to come clean.
38:29What are you worried about?
38:34What was it, my brother?
38:35I didn't see that you feel bad about it.
38:37How much time would this be taken away from my brother?
38:40We don't have that answer.
38:43But you know, I can tell you that truthfulness is always something that's taken into account.
38:50What if they give me life?
38:52It's only one that would happen.
38:54And again, like I said, I know you didn't think for any of this to go this way.
38:58So tell me what would happen.
39:02How many times would you shoot him?
39:03Twice.
39:04Twice.
39:07What did you do when you shot him?
39:10A panic.
39:21Any loose ends, they're followed up on.
39:23And some of the things that we did not ever locate was money or the murder weapon.
39:28But the facts were overwhelming.
39:32And her own statement were the basis for the state's attorney's office issuing charges of first-degree murder.
39:42Melinda Graves pled guilty to first-degree murder and was sentenced 25 years to life.
39:48Jasmine Madison pled guilty to obstruction of justice and tampering with evidence.
39:53I just asked this woman, Melinda, why did she kill my brother, Jermaine?
40:02What did he do?
40:03You know, she couldn't even answer me.
40:08My brother left in a very rude way.
40:13Jermaine did not deserve to die like that.
40:16He did not deserve to die by the hands of another.
40:23But I'm glad, though, the justice system prevailed and gave us some closure.
40:30But it's still hurtful and hard.
40:33The street Jermaine lived on Amst Street.
40:43Jermaine's spirit was there.
40:46If the spiritual situation is unsolved, then there's an ease.
40:52And crossing over is a very major thing to do.
40:54But after solving his case, his spirit went on.
41:11It would be very common to find bones in the state game lands.
41:17But extremely uncommon to find human remains.
41:20The fractures were very clear that it was trauma.
41:25Somebody wanted this person to disappear and never be found.
41:27You're thinking, could this happen to me?
