00:24The man has a long history of committing crimes and then turning around and
00:29informing to authorities and a hitman who's forced to improvise nothing says professional
00:41hitman quite like a van wrapped in black construction paper in business connections can be the difference
00:56between success and failure in 2011 businessmen doug carlisle and james henrickson are introduced
01:06through a mutual friend tim scott makes the introductions in doug carlisle's spokane
01:13washington office tim has worked for doug for years in the contracting business and knows that
01:21doug is always looking for a good deal james also has a background in construction and met tim on a
01:28job site back in the day with their common background the two really hit it off the initial
01:35opportunity seems promising james has a deal to build roads in russia for the upcoming sochi olympics
01:42for many in construction international contracts like that spell serious money
01:53though the russia deal falls through doug and james keep looking for opportunities to partner together
01:59james has a foothold in north dakota's booming shale oil business he and his wife sarah relocated to
02:07north dakota from texas earlier in the year to build their fortune north dakota's back in oil patch holds
02:15incredible opportunity for wealth throughout the region more than 1 000 wells are producing close to
02:231 million barrels of crude a day but you need to be in business with the right people one-third
02:30of the
02:31oil is on fort berthold indian reservation land so access is everything james trucking company has
02:39lucrative contract with the mha nation tribal chairman tex hall hydraulic fracturing or fracking
02:47requires a lot of water and blackstone has a fleet of a hundred trucks hauling water to drill sites
02:54it's incredibly lucrative but james is always looking to take on new partners
03:03doug and alberta have been married for 42 years and are parents to six grown children they share a strong
03:10faith which has helped them weather the ups and downs of the contracting business but it hasn't always
03:17been smooth sailing after a rough patch in the 1990s doug was forced to file for bankruptcy
03:24and just as he was recovering he was hit by the effects of the 2008 financial crisis
03:32despite a beautiful home in the wealthy south hill neighborhood he's desperate for that one big break
03:40doug really admires the hustle he sees in james and sarah
03:44and decides that the north dakota oil boom is where he'll make his fortune as well
03:53by 2013 doug and james have found the perfect opportunity north dakota is the new wild west
04:02lots of promise but also lots of potential for danger with high stakes come hot tempers and when
04:11there's a deal available you have to jump on it before anyone else does through his contacts james gets a
04:19line on a leasing opportunity for 640 acres of prime oil field land on the reservation
04:26and he offers the deal to doug doug recruits some other business partners to join him in forming a
04:35company called kingdom dynamics in order to secure the lease for the land doug holds 51 percent of the
04:43company while james and sarah both invest several hundred thousand dollars in the new venture it's
04:49a life-changing opportunity the oil business is incredibly lucrative the surrounding land is pumping
04:57out 250 000 a day in oil profits but drilling is very capital intensive the lease alone costs 2 million
05:09dollars to secure the 2 million entry fee is pennies compared to the profits they'll reap but it's a
05:17steep entry price for doug who's still cash poor and that's just for the lease on the land once that's
05:26finalized they'll need to drill each individual drill site costs up to 15 million dollars eight drill
05:33sites will easily run them 100 million dollars to set up and they can't secure the lease until they
05:40can demonstrate that they've got the funds to drill still they're going to be spectacularly rich
05:49doug gets to work drumming up additional investors
05:54between the money from the henriksons and a few other wealthy contacts doug manages to pull together
06:011.6 million doug has a great deal to offer anyone willing to put their money into the project
06:09it's such a sure thing that he promises everyone a hundred percent return on their money within two
06:15months then he secures an angel investor who will bring the remaining four hundred thousand dollars to
06:23the table plus foot the bill for the drilling but the first rule of investing there's no such thing as
06:31a sure thing when the angel investor pulls out doug is left scrambling
06:42the two months come and go without anyone seeing a dime that's never what you want from a new
06:50partnership by the fall of 2013 everyone is on edge if doug doesn't come up with that missing 400
06:59grand quick everyone will lose out on the opportunity completely so they call an emergency meeting and things
07:07go from bad to worse now it's every man for himself everyone's going to do whatever they need to do
07:18to save the deal even if it means cutting the others out james finds another investor named tormazoff to
07:26fill the gap there's just one problem tormazoff refuses to invest in any company where doug carlisle
07:33owns 51 he claims doug ripped him off in the past for james it's the last straw he begins to
07:41wonder who
07:42exactly he got into business with james's approach however is less than professional james confronts one of
07:53doug's sons and demands the four hundred thousand dollars that he feels doug owes him when that doesn't work
08:01he tries to buy doug out of his share of kingdom dynamics but doug flat out refuses to sell the
08:10encounter
08:11leaves both doug and his son rattled doug channels his energy into finding someone to buy james out instead
08:21doug once again doug once again hits the phones hoping for a miracle doug finds one last chance at
08:29salvation an oil man out of texas sees a tremendous opportunity in the land that doug leased he's sure
08:37it's worth a billion dollars and agrees to come on board and buy out the project entirely
08:42their meeting to finalize the details is set for december 16th 2013
08:53the day before the meeting doug and alberta attend a church christmas party
08:59the carlisles are active volunteers of their church with the holidays approaching the church
09:06puts on a dinner as a thank you to its members
09:09things have finally turned a corner for doug in alberta the mood is bright as the couple heads out
09:16they joke to each other about an odd looking van as they pass by
09:25hours later they notice the same van on their return home the carlisles get home at 7 pm
09:35alberta enters the house first through the back door while doug lags behind to close the gate
09:42but as soon as doug steps inside a masked intruder emerges from the darkness and follows him into the
09:50house alberta is halfway up the stairs to her bedroom when she hears voices coming from the kitchen
09:57she calls out doug and then heads back downstairs in the kitchen alberta is shocked to find a man who
10:06appears to be a cop dressed in black tactical gear but also wearing a balaclava pointing a pistol right
10:13at her husband alberta freezes as the man looks straight at her this is no cop
10:32doug carlisle and james henrickson see dollar signs when they partner on a lucrative oil opportunity
10:39in north dakota but when doug can't secure the financing to finalize the lease the entire project
10:46is in jeopardy turning on each other james and doug each secure an outside investor hoping to buy the other
10:54out for james it's the last straw he begins to wonder who exactly he got into business with
11:03then just before christmas in 2013 doug is confronted in his home by a man who is definitely not a
11:11cop
11:15a terrified alberta takes refuge in a closet and calls 9-1-1 when the closet door opens
11:23she's relieved to find a real cop on the other side
11:28the detective comforts the shaken woman as she gives him a full account of the traumatic ordeal
11:41she describes coming into the house and heading up the stairs hearing voices in the kitchen
11:50then seeing a man dressed in tactical gear pointing a pistol at her husband according to alberta the gunman
12:00looked straight at her and her husband instructed her not to do anything at that point she turned and ran
12:09upstairs as she fled she heard six gunshots she then took refuge in the closet called 9-1-1 and
12:21waited for the police to arrive
12:26alberta isn't able to provide a description of the shooter despite reporting that she looked straight at him
12:33but police do find other leads when police check the perimeter of the house they find a man's footprint
12:41near the back gate
12:45they also find a heavy welder's glove in the backyard the glove is bone dry despite the fact that it
12:52had
12:53rained earlier in the day which implies that the glove had been left there that evening
13:05in the kitchen police recover seven shell cases from a 45 caliber pistol they also recover doug's wallet
13:15and nothing in the house appears to have been stolen the shooting has all the hallmarks of a
13:22professional hit except for one detail that makes no sense why leave the witness alive
13:32the implausible nature of alberta's story puts her at the top of the suspect list police need to be
13:39very cautious and thorough when they interview alberta as a homicide detective you learn to spot when
13:46someone is faking their reactions or hiding the truth but sometimes it can be difficult to tell the
13:54the difference police need to consider the possibility that alberta was a shooter herself
14:02or that she hired someone to do the job she needs to be carefully excluded from having been involved in
14:10the crime
14:13lead detective burbridge interviews both alberta and one of her sons
14:19during questioning alberta unravels the complex web of her husband's business dealings alberta tells the
14:27detective about the project in north dakota and the months her husband has spent deal making with
14:32investors lots of promises made and lots of promises broken the carlisle son describes the incident when
14:41james henrickson burst into the office months ago demanding money after that confrontation his father
14:48had taken up shooting practice and recently he had warned his sons if anything happens to me look at james
15:00in homicide investigations we would consider that a clue with a capital c when a victim names his potential
15:08killer before being murdered we tend to pay attention it may be circumstantial but it's a great place to
15:16start but james henrickson is not the only name dropped during the interview the son also tells the
15:24detective that based on the mother's description the shooter sounds a lot like rob de leo henrickson's
15:31right hand man rob de leo is a known criminal in spokane he has a violent past including convictions
15:40for manslaughter and drugs when police tracked down james henrickson he's already heard the bad news
15:50the detective phones james who has already heard about doug's death from tim scott james claims that doug
15:58owes him close to two million dollars from all of the failed business deals and missed deadlines but
16:04he denies any involvement in doug's death and a cell phone ping confirms that he's in north dakota giving
16:11him an airtight alibi rob de leo also in north dakota an angry investor who happens to be out of
16:23town on
16:23the night the night of the murder is one thing but here's where it gets complicated as the detective
16:29looks further into doug's business dealings he realizes that it's not just james that doug owed money
16:35to he had a dozen angry investors and they're all conveniently out of town tonight it may just be a
16:44huge
16:45coincidence but to a good homicide investigator there are no coincidences just more work
16:53with suspicion off alberta police set about investigating the shooting as a murder for hire
17:00but as they look further into the evidence this professional hit job starts to look less and less
17:08professional besides the glove found at the scene police also recover video surveillance footage from
17:15a school behind the carlisle's home the footage shows a man dressed in black tactical gear running by
17:21right after the time of the murder police also learned that alberta wasn't the only person to call 9-1
17:30-1 that night
17:31an hour after the carlisle's leave for church a neighbor spots a suspicious van parked near her house
17:39it's a white panel van the kind used commonly by trades people she notices that the van has no license
17:46plate and has black construction paper taped around the outside the driver is a white male wearing a
17:55baseball cap his attempts to appear inconspicuous are failing spectacularly
18:04later that evening the woman once again sees the strange van
18:10when it drives away she follows it oddly it just drives around the neighborhood
18:21and keeps on driving an hour later the same weird and impossible to miss van
18:29is back once again parked near her house at this point she's certain the driver is up to no good
18:37and calls 9-1-1 the following day police learn more about the mysterious vehicle
18:46police canvass the neighborhood and identify more sightings of the same odd van some neighbors even
18:53captured it on home surveillance cameras from the surveillance footage investigators are able to narrow
19:00down the van's make and model when they run a search with the washington department of licensing
19:06they learn there are 75 just like it in the spokane area it's a start but they have a long
19:14way to go
19:16in the following days detective burbridge continues to work on clearing all of doug's angry business
19:22partners as suspects with a list this long police know there might be more people out there with
19:30information about doug on december 18th three days after the murder they put out a call to the public
19:37asking anyone who had business dealings with the victim and might have something to share to come
19:42forward to the police and it works but shockingly the man who casually strolls through their door
19:52is the last man they expected to see
20:00after spokane washington businessman doug carlisle is gunned down in his own kitchen
20:07in a shooting with all the hallmarks of a professional job
20:11his wife and son point the finger at his business partner james henrickson or possibly
20:18henrickson's right-hand man rob de leo when police learn henrickson was only one on a long list of business
20:26partners angry with doug they have their work cut out for them with a list this long police know there
20:33might be more people out there with information about doug until rob de leo voluntarily shows up
20:41at the police station rob de leo cooperating with the police is nothing new the man has a long history
20:49of committing crimes and then turning around and informing to authorities de leo has served prison
20:55time on weapons charges and is known to be involved in the drug trade he volunteers that he knows both
21:02doug carlisle and james henrickson and wants to make sure police know he had nothing to do with doug's
21:09death de leo's strategy for clearing his name starts with an unusual approach denying involvement in a
21:18murder nobody has accused him of committing when someone rushes to tell police they didn't do something
21:25that police haven't even accused them of yet that's definitely something that would raise a few eyebrows
21:33police decide to give him a polygraph surprisingly de leo passes but his eagerness to avoid suspicion
21:42has precisely the opposite effect it puts him right at the top of the suspect list
21:49but de leo has science on his side on december 31st the forensic report comes back on the glove found
21:58at
21:59the crime scene there's dna on it but it's not de leo's he's officially cleared as the hitman or at
22:07the very least he's not the one who left evidence in doug's backyard investigators submit the sample to
22:15the combined dna index system which is a national dna database maintained by the fbi if the person who
22:24owns that glove has a criminal record he'll be in the database in the meantime detective burbridge
22:32continues to work the case the detective scours social media and the internet searching for leads
22:39sometimes the best detective work happens behind a computer screen and sometimes the internet provides
22:46you exactly what you're looking for burbridge finds a website called the ripoff report it's a
22:53detailed account of all of james henriksen's shady dealings and criminal history going way back even before
23:00he set foot in north dakota apparently james henriksen had more angry business partners than even doug carlisle did
23:11the ripoff report describes the henriksons as con artists and thieves and warns people they're dangerous
23:20james and sarah have been called the ken and barbie of north dakota but it seems they were more like
23:26the bonnie and claude the report describes henriksen's previous felony convictions in oregon and washington
23:35state it also accuses him of being directly involved in the murder of both doug carlisle and of another
23:43man in north dakota named casey clark the post is anonymous it's not evidence but it's good information
23:54so police now suspect they're on the right track in early january 2014 burbridge pays a visit to north
24:03dakota henriksen's not talking but detective burbridge finds a confidential informant who will
24:11the man describes witnessing james wishing doug dead on multiple occasions he's also seen james practice
24:20forging doug's signature on documents in his office but even getting someone to go on the record
24:27is tough there are a lot of people in north dakota who are afraid of james henriksen on january 10th
24:36however
24:36the case breaks in another direction the detective gets a hit on codis the dna on the welder's glove
24:45found in doug's backyard belongs to a man named timothy sukau his dna is in the system from a stint
24:54he did
24:54in prison for burglary back in the 1990s sukau is now a family man gainfully employed and with a
25:03wife and children living in the suburbs there's nothing in sukau's record that indicates any
25:08connection to doug carlisle but alberta has never heard of him his dna couldn't have landed in her
25:16backyard by accident sukau works for a local asbestos removal company and his company vehicle
25:25the same make and model van seen driving randomly around the neighborhood the night of the murder
25:35police obtain a search warrant for sukau's van his home and his personal vehicle
25:42in sukau's car they find a police hat just like the one alberta described seeing on the assailant
25:51in the center console is a handwritten list with items such as wheel man wipe tools down
26:00and practice with pistol when you've got a complicated task to pull off it's smart to write
26:06a to-do list but maybe if the task is a murder don't keep the list in your car for
26:12a month
26:18sukau's phone reveals the link authorities need the contacts in sukau's phone have a listing for james
26:25n d with the exact same phone number the police have been using to contact james henrickson
26:32in north dakota sukau's phone also reveals over a hundred calls and messages between him and rob
26:40de leo leading up to doug carlisle's murder the same rob de leo who is henrickson's right-hand man
26:47and claimed he had nothing to do with the murder and even passed a polygraph but also the same rob
26:55de leo
26:55who's been an informant in the past and when they bring rob in again he agrees to cooperate with the
27:03police
27:07when sukau learns that rob de leo is cooperating he agrees to spill as well but sukau's confession
27:14reveals something nobody expected doug carlisle wasn't the first murder he'd committed for james henrickson
27:26the dna on a glove accidentally left at the scene of doug carlisle's 2013 murder points to timothy
27:34sukau as does the less than inconspicuous van seen driving around the neighborhood and the murder
27:42to-do list found in sukau's car a search of sukau's phone reveals a connection to the man who really
27:49no
27:49longer wanted to be doug's business partner the contacts in sukau's phone have a listing for james
27:56n d with the exact same phone number the police have been using to contact james henrickson
28:02in north dakota and when sukau starts talking he reveals just how far henrickson is willing to go
28:10to break off business ties in february 2012 sukau gets a call from rob de leo who he knows from
28:20when
28:20they worked together at the asbestos removal company back in 2007. de leo offers sukau a job
28:27the boss needs someone roughed up and he's willing to pay a few thousand dollars
28:35sukau takes a train from spokane to willison north dakota on february 21st but when he gets there
28:42henrickson changes the plan james explains that he has a beef with one of his employees
28:48casey clark casey had followed james from texas to north dakota on the promise james would make him
28:56operations manager in the trucking company but when james failed to deliver casey planned to quit
29:04and potentially start a rival company james is having none of that he wants casey dead
29:13and he offers sukau 20 000 to make it happen and he's not about to accept no for an answer
29:25when casey arrives at james office to return his employee badge
29:32sukau is hiding behind the door with a weapon
29:37after bludgeoning casey to death
29:41he cleans up the scene with bleach and buries the body out of town casey's disappearance goes
29:49unsolved a year and a half later in september 2013 timothy sukau once again hears from his old friend
30:00sukau meets de leo in a park in spokane to talk about a business proposition de leo's main job for
30:07henriksen is getting a drug manufacturing operation off the ground henriksen has been trying to make
30:15oxy pills laced with heroin and offers to cut sukau in as their distributor in washington state but during
30:24the meeting he mentions that the boss has a business partner who's stolen a lot of money from him and
30:30he
30:30might want the guy dead sukau doesn't want to commit another murder he didn't even want to commit the
30:36first murder he asked can i just beat the guy up but de leo indicates that he'll have to consult
30:44with
30:44the boss a beating won't pay as much and now we're negotiating
30:52over the next few months daleo and sukau work out the terms of their deal henriksen agrees to just
30:59a beating but will only pay two thousand dollars then he flip-flops and insists it has to be a
31:06murder
31:07sukau needs more than two thousand dollars so he agrees to do a murder but only for the same twenty
31:13thousand dollars he was paid last time henriksen thinks the job shouldn't pay as much as last time
31:19because this time it's local last time sukau had to travel there's nothing like cheaping out on your
31:27hitman i guess you get what you pay for right eventually henriksen agrees to pay twenty thousand
31:35dollars and sukau agrees to do the murder sukau remembers that rob de leo said carlisle had stolen
31:43on a lot of money assuming he might have cash in the house sukau decides to sweeten the pot by
31:50robbing his victim as well he recruits two buddies lazaro piscina and robbie war to help him in
31:57committing a home invasion robbery conveniently leaving out the part about a murder
32:07just before christmas henriksen gets wind of doug's impending meeting
32:12with an investor from texas who will take over the deal and cut james out and insists the hit needs
32:20to happen now but when sukau said he wasn't up for committing another murder james really should have
32:29listened robbie ware is the designated getaway driver but he can't find a vehicle for the job
32:37so sukau decides to improvise and use his work van but the van is covered in logos that now need
32:47to be
32:47hidden so as not to draw any attention nothing says professional hitman quite like a van wrapped in black
32:54construction paper where drops off sukau and piscina near the carlisle's back gate
33:09the men both have trench coats but they're just getting in the way so they drop them and make their
33:15way into the yard then piscina realizes he's got the wrong ammunition for the shotgun so sukau sends
33:24him back to rendezvous with the van that's easier said than done because by this point the van is on
33:31its round the neighborhood tour being followed by the nervous woman and caught on surveillance cameras
33:43in the backyard sukau realizes that somehow he's lost his pistol but it's so dark he needs to use
33:51his phone's flashlight to search around until he finds it when piscina returns he's got his hands full
34:00piscina tries to hand over items to sukau and sukau tries to hand them back and somehow in the scuffle
34:07sukau drops the welder's glove but it's so dark that neither of them even notice it after piscina
34:14leaves again sukau spots where driving the van back and forth in front of the house he appears to be
34:22trying to say something on his walkie-talkie but it just comes out as static it's at this point that
34:29the
34:29neighbor across the street calls 9-1-1 pro tip if you're trying to blend in maybe don't make
34:37your van look like a kindergarten art project when sukau encounters alberta he forgets all about his
34:46plan to rob the house after shooting dove sukau flees through the back gate runs past the school
34:56the surveillance cameras and semi-home manages to meet up with the van when they search the crime scene
35:03police find the welder's glove in the backyard right where sukau had left it the ironic part of this
35:10entire scheme on sukau's handwritten operation plan the glove was just a maybe he brought it in case he
35:19had to break a window at the carlisle house but the dna on that glove led police right to him
35:27a few days
35:28after the murder sukau reaches out to daleo again asking about when he'll be paid after all it's
35:36christmas and sukau has a family to buy presents for daleo puts him on the 30-day payment plan
35:44he'll get his twenty thousand dollars on january 15th
35:49but one day before payday sukau is arrested for doug's murder
35:57on the same day federal authorities raid henriksen's home in north dakota and find a stash of weapons
36:04as a convicted felon it's illegal for him to possess firearms and they track him down and arrest him a
36:10a few days later but as the case is prepared for trial authorities learn that henriksen's criminal
36:18enterprise is far bigger than they ever imagined
36:30after the murder for hire of spokane businessman doug carlisle in december 2013
36:36authorities arrest timothy sukau as the hitman and rob daleo as the middleman but the real prize is
36:45the mastermind behind it all james henriksen as prosecutors build their case one thing is clear
36:53henriksen takes the concept of life of crime to the extreme with varying degrees of success
37:01james is released from jail in washington state in february 2011. after a failed attempt at becoming
37:10a drug lord in texas he and sarah get married and moved to north dakota in december of that year
37:17rob
37:18daleo joins them rob and james met while they were both incarcerated in washington state and rob's job
37:26is to get the drug manufacturing business up and running again in the meantime james and sarah get
37:33involved in trucking on the reservation establishing an elaborate fraud where they
37:38get investors to put in money to buy trucks for a guaranteed high return and then fail to pay back
37:45claiming the trucks had broken down all the while moving the profits around from company to company
37:52in order to hide them when tribal chairman tex hall gets wind of the fraud he's furious
38:00and bans james from ever doing business on the reservation again
38:05which is why james has doug put his name on the new company instead in february 2012 when james hires
38:14sukow to kill casey clark he stumbles onto a whole new way of dealing with rivals once james has
38:23successfully hired one hitman it becomes his go-to solution has an old business partner been bad
38:30mouthing you because you swindled him out of his investment hire someone to kill him is the tribal
38:35chief upset that you embezzled half a million dollars from his company and knocked up his 20 year old

39:03thousand
39:03dollars to kill a drug rival but wiz pockets the money and doesn't do the murder
39:10so when james decides to have doug carlisle killed he goes back to the source the only hitman that's
39:17actually followed through timothy sukow by the time james is formally charged in september 2015

40:03businessman doug carlisle here in spokane this whole thing really have played out like a crime novel
40:08but tonight with the information in these court documents right here this whole thing just took on
40:13another scandalous turn according to federal prosecutors henrickson was in the spokane county
40:18jail when he struck up a friendship with the inmate in the next cell prosecutors tell us that henrickson

41:17prosecutors against henrickson rob de leo originally agrees to a 14-year term in exchange for his
