04:51y se han hecho exactamente lo que han planeado.
04:55Y tenían más grandes aspiraciones
04:58de hacer un escuelo en Pocatel High School.
05:17Estaban pensando en un escuelo en Pocatel High School.
05:40La primera vez que escuché la película,
05:42yo estaba sorprendido.
05:45Yo todavía no sabía lo que estaba en ese momento.
05:48No quiero más sorprendidos, Brian.
05:50Si hay algo más que hay que decirle,
05:52me diga.
05:53Pero él downplayó la película.
05:56Él downplayó la película.
05:58Torey y él,
05:59playing around,
06:01doing pranks
06:02at school.
06:05They watched the video,
06:06and then they arrested him
06:08in the interrogation room.
06:12He was taken back to the Bannock County Jail
06:15where he was booked into custody
06:17on first-degree murder charges.
06:21Now the next step is Torey.
06:24He has no idea that Brian's been arrested.
06:27We've got to get to him.
06:28We've got to talk to him.
06:31I did not want to take Torey in to the police station.
06:35My husband Sean said we needed to get an attorney.
06:39Torey had not said anything.
06:41He needed a lot of crying and breaking down,
06:44and I thought it was because of his friend dying.
06:47I thought there's no way Torey
06:50could have been involved in anything like this.
06:53We don't know what to do.
06:56The Adam Cech parents went back and forth,
06:59whether they were going to retain an attorney,
07:00let us, you know, speak to him.
07:03Finally, his parents agreed to let us interview him
07:06with the parents in the room.
07:19Brian, during his confession, had told us
07:21that they were going to go out there
07:22and just scare Cassie with some masks.
07:26And Torey then began stabbing, you know, Cassie.
07:36Everything Brian told me, we've got to confirm with Torey.
07:41We have physical evidence about this case.
07:43We know what Brian's role is.
07:46Now we want to hear what Torey's role is.
07:50No matter what, Torey was going to be arrested
07:52at the conclusion of the interview.
07:54But John and Andy really wanted to get a confession.
07:59You know, first of all, why we're here.
08:01And, uh, we're investigating the homicide.
08:03He did seem a little too relaxed.
08:07And we were kind of, in an odd way,
08:10impressed and frustrated with how casual Torey was.
08:14We were planning to get up there about 8.
08:16When did you say we? Who's we?
08:18Me and Brian.
08:19Okay.
08:20Like he'd said before,
08:22he'd been to the Whispering Cliffs' house
08:24to see Cassie that night.
08:26What happened? When did he get there?
08:28Cassie and Mac gave us a tour of the entire house.
08:31Yeah.
08:32First door.
08:33He's maybe rehearsed the story a bit,
08:35so he feels comfortable with it.
08:37And he feels like maybe we're buying it.
08:40Yeah, we worked on the weight machine for a little while, and...
08:44Basically, his interview mimicked that of Brian's.
08:47We knew the movie started at 10.
08:50He said, oh, no, we hit the movie, then, when we pressed it,
08:52okay, we didn't go to the movie.
08:53And he changed his story.
08:57At that point, I started to hear things that I had no clue about,
09:01that, yeah, I got, definitely got worried during that point.
09:05We were scoping the neighborhood.
09:07Why?
09:08Because we were planning to go through cars.
09:10When you say go through cars, what do you mean?
09:12Oh, see the ones that are open, we don't go through any with alarms,
09:16or that are locked.
09:17We just walk by, push the handle,
09:20and if it's open, we get in it, and still the gasp on your chain.
09:23So, so have you done that before?
09:25Uh, once a year, and in ninth grade.
09:30Okay.
09:31There was no doubt in our minds that Brian and Tori
09:33were communicating between the interviews.
09:36So he's gonna go with the same story that Brian told
09:39that we were burglarizing cars.
09:41Do you think it's real frequent, or you say just a couple times?
09:43Just a couple times.
09:44Okay, so it's fairly new to you.
09:46Yeah.
09:47I was like, what the heck, that's a felony.
09:51You were really doing that?
09:53I was thinking these thoughts.
09:56It was a pretty bare street, though.
09:59Okay.
09:59You said you got, like, into three cars on that street.
10:01I got up to three cars.
10:03I didn't get mad at them all.
10:04What was the next car that you got up to?
10:07Uh...
10:07After that white car?
10:10Uh, it was...
10:11I thought it was a truck.
10:13Okay.
10:14Truck.
10:15Okay.
10:15He had an answer for everything.
10:17And the long answer, usually,
10:19and would provide details.
10:21There's a red car.
10:23There's something deep-seated in him
10:25that's different from Brian.
10:26So it's a car?
10:27There's something that comes from him
10:29that's a little more diabolical and deliberate.
10:31Where'd you buy that?
10:32Are we almost done?
10:33We honestly are.
10:34Okay.
10:35And then there was an interruption,
10:37and it, quite frankly, kind of ruined our momentum.
10:41Because our son has to be picked up in, like,
10:43could he finish in, like, ten minutes?
10:45Well.
10:45My younger son was waiting for me to pick him up.
10:47I'll call you if I need to.
10:50Thanks.
10:52Okay.
10:52Now that we've confirmed all the information
10:55that Brian's told us,
10:56now's the time we're gonna begin to move in and press.
11:00We don't believe your story.
11:01And I don't think your dad will teach your story
11:03about going through the cars.
11:04It's a tough one.
11:05And I don't believe it, especially,
11:07because I know it's not true.
11:09You could tell that the wheels were turning
11:11when you looked into his eyes.
11:13And you could see him.
11:14He's thinking,
11:15do they really know what they know?
11:21Can I talk to him in turn?
11:23Okay.
11:24We can do that.
11:26We can kill it now.
11:32I love you, son.
11:35Do you know I love you?
11:37No.
11:37Do you know that I love you?
11:41Look at me.
11:42I do love you.
11:46There was some conversation after we'd stopped the interview.
11:49It was unsolicited.
11:52We do know that they murder Cassie.
11:55We got the evidence at this point to prove that.
11:58So is that why you want him to lie?
12:01I'm sorry, that's the way it goes.
12:02He's gonna be charged with first-degree murder.
12:05They want you to cooperate.
12:06We know the details.
12:07We've got the knife that you used.
12:09We've got the masks that you used.
12:11We've got the videotape.
12:13This is right, Tori.
12:14And what they're saying is true.
12:16Sure.
12:19Tori never gets emotional,
12:21even when he knows that he's pretty much done.
12:25He never really changes.
12:30Draper's, he's remorseful.
12:33He's sorry.
12:35We're never getting that from Adam Tick.
12:38I truly believe he was getting ready to confess.
12:43In my opinion, he essentially confessed to his father.
12:47We got what we needed.
12:49We've got the two that murdered Cassie.
12:53I get into the police station, and they had handcuffed Tori and arrested him while I was gone.
12:59And they tell us, Brian's confessed.
13:02We have a videotape.
13:04They're going to be arraigned tomorrow.
13:08And I remember them telling me, he's gonna be looking at something like a 20-year prison sentence.
13:15And I remember thinking, he's 16.
13:20Today, police shed light on the mysterious death of Cassie Jo Stoddard.
13:24And tonight in jail, two 16-year-olds charged with her murder.
13:28One count of first-degree murder, and one count of conspiracy to commit first-degree murder.
13:40It's a traumatic event for a murder of a 16-year-old girl to happen in a town like Pocatello.
13:46Just about the only thing that could make it more traumatic is to find out that there's a likelihood that
13:52two 16-year-old boys who knew her committed the murder.
14:00When Tori was arrested, literally, Tori had never been in any trouble.
14:05Never.
14:06Pretend like you didn't watch him.
14:09Tori was a very happy child.
14:12You know, he was in scouts.
14:14He was in a bowling league.
14:16Very artistic.
14:18He's always making something.
14:21There's a family photo.
14:24And he, at a very young age, became very interested in movies.
14:28Three days.
14:30Kid horror movies.
14:31Yeah, you're ugly too, haha.
14:32BMX movies.
14:36These are kids being really silly.
14:40He's not an aggressive person.
14:42He's not a fighting person.
14:46He's just not that person.
14:49That's pretty much my video.
14:53And I couldn't believe it.
14:55That's the other one.
14:58And I believe that we're all God's children.
15:01Help me.
15:03I know that there's nothing my child could do where I cannot love him.
15:11Plans are in the works for Idaho's sixth LDS temple, this one for Pocatello.
15:17My parents were converts to the Mormon church, and my wife grew up LDS as well.
15:27The things that pulled for me, as far as our religion went, the things that I still value are the
15:34family.
15:36We tried for quite a while to have children, and she had several miscarriages.
15:42So we adopted Brian.
15:46He just lit the room up from the time he was born.
15:50Extremely athletic.
15:52Basketball, soccer, skateboarding.
15:56He was a musician.
15:58Played the piano.
15:59Pounded on the drums.
16:01And my son did have some problems with anxiety.
16:06He went to therapy on a regular basis.
16:09Can't sit still.
16:10Never.
16:11So they put him on Ritalin.
16:12But he was still ace in school.
16:16We were very close, in my mind.
16:20But obviously not close enough for him to tell me what is on his mind.
16:27It just seemed impossible.
16:3216 years old.
16:33He had no reference to really the finality of this, or what it meant.
17:02I remember sitting in class, and the TV was on.
17:08Police say they have strong evidence tying Draper and Adam Chick to Cassie's gory death.
17:12There's no way that there's kids our age that did this terrible, heinous thing.
17:19Monday morning, when I found out Cassie was killed, Brian and Tori were still going to class.
17:24They were still in school.
17:25Everyone thought Matt Beckham was the one that killed Cassie.
17:28Police want to know that Cassie's boyfriend is not a suspect, and the teen's murder is not linked to the
17:34Nori Jones case.
17:36I didn't know if it was real at first.
17:40I remember calling my friend who knew Tori, and I was like, guess what?
17:43I was like, Tori killed this girl that I go to school with.
17:45And she was like, what?
17:48I had a class with Brian, Tori, and Cassie.
17:53Brian usually kept to himself.
17:55I know that he was on the soccer team.
17:57When he would get nervous, he would stutter pretty bad.
18:00And you could tell that it did affect him.
18:03He felt embarrassed by it.
18:05The Brian thing blew my mind.
18:07I would have never expected this.
18:10He would do a lot of things for Shock Factor.
18:13Okay, dude, we get it.
18:14You know, like, you're Billy Badass.
18:17He was always constantly trying to fit in.
18:22Tori, I don't know if he kept a low profile.
18:25He didn't really talk to nobody but Brian.
18:29Tori was hyper.
18:31He was a jokester.
18:33He could screw with somebody and get away with it.
18:36He would.
18:38In eighth grade, he seemed really just kind of funny and quirky.
18:42But then in 10th grade, he had a very different look about him
18:45than he had when I knew him in junior high.
18:48He always kind of looked mean.
18:50He just looked angry.
18:52I was almost afraid to talk to him.
18:55When Brian would talk about Tori,
18:57he would talk about his knives
18:59or that he had a knife obsession.
19:00And, I don't know, gave me the creeps.
19:04It doesn't make any sense that they could be friends with Cassie
19:08and see how awesome she is and then still want to do that.
19:12Like, that's kind of mind-blowing to everybody involved.
19:22And then the next day, the police are standing there.
19:26That's when I found out.
19:27They said, we're here to let you know that they have been stalking you
19:31and your house is on the videotape.
19:34And we're going over to Nathan's house.
19:37We're going to go snoop around over there
19:39and try to see if she's home alone or not.
19:40Maybe she's home alone.
19:42Splat!
19:43She did.
19:44Don't bear humor into this, Brian.
19:47This investigation had a whole new turn.
19:50This may have not been the first attempt
19:53Tori and Brian made to kill somebody.
19:57No one walked around with cameras like they do now.
20:00Wait, there's a little guy in here.
20:03This camera thing was like a new development
20:05once ninth grade hit and he started, you know, just recording stuff.
20:09And it was kind of always on his hand like this.
20:13Hey, look.
20:14Hello, Cassie.
20:15They filmed Cassie that same day at her locker,
20:18knowing what they knew.
20:19I'm getting you on tape, okay?
20:21And the police told my parents that Brian and Tori
20:24had been filming their house.
20:27I remember their faces, like, just wide-eyed.
20:32They had a list of people they were going to kill.
20:37Sometime later that week,
20:39a police officer came to my mom's house
20:41and she said,
20:43you might want to sit down.
20:44I heard some news about Kirsten.
20:47She's going to be home alone from six to seven.
20:51They had written out a list of people
20:54that they were planning on killing.
20:57It was part of what they thought was a screenplay
21:00of the whole murder.
21:03Brian and Tori were really into horror movies.
21:07I have a Halloween style.
21:09It's pretty fucking sweet, isn't it?
21:10My trench coat.
21:11It was the Niners.
21:12I had to do something this week.
21:14They were always looking for storylines
21:17and filming people at school.
21:20Brian told us that they wanted to make a movie.
21:24Did you ask Cassie to make a movie with you?
21:26Yes.
21:26We wanted to meet, like, the character and stuff.
21:29What's this movie about?
21:31Uh, we were making, like, slasher footage.
21:35They were making their own movie.
21:38They were trying to recreate the movie Scream.
21:49The movie's just pretty much about the Scream killer
21:52that wanted to scare and hurt their friends.
21:58They dressed up like the Scream character
22:00with real knives and masks.
22:03We're going to be just like Scream except real-life germs.
22:08We're going to be murderers.
22:09That's going to be good, baby.
22:15Brian and Tori pulled our house phone
22:17trying to find out if I was home alone.
22:24I was told that they were seeking me out as well.
22:29Brian and Tori, they were always, like,
22:32always sitting behind me in every class I had.
22:35Shaking my chair.
22:36I'm like, can you knock it off?
22:39She's dead or something.
22:41She just told me to be quiet and shut up
22:44so now she's dead.
22:48Brian would look at me.
22:50I didn't really look back.
22:53I wasn't interested in him.
22:57All of a sudden, I remember there was a car
23:01that was always parked in the church parking lot
23:03after school.
23:05It was facing the house.
23:07The car would just sit there for, like, hours.
23:10We've already snooped around her house a couple times.
23:14She's not home, so we're going to the church over there
23:17and we're going to call a girl, a guy named Cassie and Matt.
23:20They're our friends, but we have to make sacrifices, so...
23:25Then another time, somebody's outside my window.
23:28I saw flashlights shining and I heard footsteps.
23:33I told my mom and dad and they were like,
23:36no, it's just the neighbors' headlights.
23:39That was Brian and Tori.
23:40And they were checking the house like they said they did.
23:44Get our first kill back and keep going.
23:50That's when I think I started to see my life through a different lens.
23:55Who's watching me, right?
23:58I would go to school and I would think,
24:00what if Brian's other friends are in on it?
24:05Maybe I was supposed to die, but I somehow got out of it.
24:09I got lucky, in a sense.
24:13I feel like you're alive because Cassie's dead.
24:29There's this big rock in front of our school that we paint.
24:34And this rock is one that we paint before the football games.
24:42I did a portrait.
24:44With the help of my students, a portrait of Cassie.
24:48There would be rows of people around watching us paint this thing.
24:53And they would come up to us and talk about what Cassie meant to them.
24:58She was pretty much one of the sweetest girls here.
25:01If she didn't know you and you talked to her, if she talked to you,
25:04she'd known you her whole life.
25:05To me, it showed how loved Cassie was.
25:09And how sad and tragic it was that her life had been cut short.
25:13It's been a long week for Paul and Josefina Cisneros.
25:17I put them like that and then I fix them.
25:19A long week defined by several different emotions.
25:22Whoever done this to her, they not only hurt her,
25:25they hurt her family, friends,
25:28and they hurt all the people from this community.
25:37The investigation phase is kind of winding down.
25:41And you're dealing with the, you know, the young girl that has to be buried.
25:50I did attend Cassie's funeral.
25:53As did many students and teachers.
25:56And it was a very sad affair.
26:00I know there's many family and friends that love and care about her.
26:04She, she's a very special person to all of us.
26:07And we'll miss her dearly.
26:09I remember her family there and crying and, and it was beautiful.
26:17A bunch of us went to the funeral, which was in itself very unusual.
26:21That's how powerful this, this was.
26:26So it was important to show our support to the family.
26:32This was something that really kind of shook all of us.
26:40It was hard for me to reconcile how two 16 year old boys could want to murder a 16 year
26:48old girl.
26:48And let alone carry it out.
26:52When I saw them on the arraignment video,
26:55my first impression was, wow, these are the guys who, who did this.
26:59Brian Draper and Tori Adam chick are both charged,
27:01but authorities say the boys are innocent until proven otherwise.
27:06They don't look like killers.
27:08I had this thing in the back of my mind that Brian was a juvenile and he would be treated
27:15differently.
27:17That was not the case.
27:19They'll be treated for all intents and purposes from today forward as adults.
27:24I mean, they're adults as far as the criminal justice system is concerned.
27:31I was one of the attorneys that represented Brian Draper.
27:35The first time I met Brian was shortly after we got the file at the public defender's office.
27:41I went out to the jail to visit him.
27:44Brian was scared and was being held separately since he was underage.
27:54Ordinarily, juveniles are tried in juvenile court, but murder is an automatic waiver.
28:05After I received the second interview, my view of the case changed dramatically.
28:11He was just saying, I have to kill him, I have to kill him since tethered in juvenile court.
28:15That interview showed Brian didn't intend this to happen and didn't expect it to really happen.
28:21My theory was that Tori was the main actor and Brian was less culpable.
28:30At that point, I needed a lot more information about the relationship between Brian and Tori.
28:39Brian, he had very good friends.
28:42All of his friends hung out at our house.
28:45I was mom.
28:45So, I was close to all of his little group of friends.
28:50He's always had a stutter.
28:53But his friends knew that and it didn't bother them at all.
28:58When he started junior high, that was a different story.
29:02He was tall, extremely thin, his veins would show.
29:06He was just so insecure with himself, with his appearance, because he was teased so badly all the time.
29:20In 2005, we moved to another house and Tori lost touch with his group of friends.
29:28He had always had the same group of friends.
29:32Tori really struggled with that.
29:36And it was shortly after moving that Brian met Tori.
29:40At first, they did not like each other at all.
29:44But towards the end of the 10th grade, they became friends.
29:50Brian came over to see Tori's movie collection.
29:53And it wasn't too long after that that Brian started coming over more often.
29:58And then pretty soon he was coming over a lot.
30:01Of course, I was on the road working as a consultant.
30:06He'd be gone for a month or two and then he'd come home for a week.
30:10I was caught up in my own world of making money and living large and working my way up the
30:17corporate ladder.
30:18One time, Pam called me.
30:21I told him, I don't like this.
30:23I don't feel good about this kid.
30:27Tori was very much into horror movies and Brian started to become a bit obsessed with violent movies as well.
30:38And this room started being covered with horror posters, lots of horror films.
30:44It was very obvious that the four months they knew each other, Brian was being influenced in a direction that
30:51he didn't know anything about.
30:53Because he hadn't watched any movies like that.
30:57But the most alarming thing was videos about Columbine.
31:01And that really set us back a little bit.
31:06Why is my son interested in this?
31:10Tori wasn't interested in making friends with all of us.
31:14So Brian stopped skateboarding with us and hanging out.
31:18More than one of his friends told Pam, we don't want to hang around Tori.
31:25I told him Tori needed to start spending time at our house.
31:29And he argued with me, of course.
31:33Brian would be at Tori's almost all the time.
31:37They did come on fast.
31:39We're only talking a couple months.
31:42All of a sudden, all of Brian's other friends disappeared.
31:48Tori did become his whole world.
31:58Draper and Adamczyk both plead not guilty as their attorneys argue they need separate trials.
32:04You have to decide the guilt or innocence of Mr. Draper on what you hear in this courtroom and not
32:10what you've heard in the media.
32:12Judge Peter D. McDermott was fair.
32:16His process was open.
32:18It was absolutely appropriate to split the trials, to not try them together.
32:23They were both mounting a similar defense.
32:26Both took the same approach of their client thought they were pulling a prank and the other one went crazy
32:34and killed her.
32:36Knowing what Tori's counsel's argument might be, that it might be similar to ours, we made a decision to go
32:42first.
32:46Both teams are accused of killing Cassie Jo Stoddart, but Draper's attorneys maintain that it was Adam Cech who's mainly
32:53responsible.
32:56With the trial unfolding, I couldn't get enough of it.
33:01Because I think I was so lost with the why.
33:04I didn't understand why I was targeted.
33:07That's why I followed it very closely.
33:10The day started with opening statements from prosecutors and defense attorneys.
33:13Prosecutor Mark Heideman told jurors that-
33:15The full impact of everything was felt during the trials.
33:18We just killed Cassie.
33:19We just left her house.
33:21This is not- I saw her lifeless body.
33:25Cassie Jo's family did a really good job of maintaining their- their emotions in the courtroom.
33:31Today, prosecutors in the Brian Draper murder trial submitted exhibits 59 through 97, including the bloodstained clothes Cassie Stoddart was
33:38wearing the night she was killed.
33:41It was horrible to see it.
33:44The clothes that Cassie was wearing.
33:46The masks.
33:48Then Cassie Stoddart's mom took the stand.
33:50And his daughter testified that she went to the home where Cassie had been house-sitting and where she was
33:55found just a few days after her death.
33:56And I started screaming.
33:58I want my daughter.
34:00I want my daughter.
34:04I thought a lot about what would happen if this was my daughter.
34:10I can't imagine it.
34:12That's why my feelings towards that family are so strong and I always wanted to give them the respect that
34:21they deserve.
34:21Because I look at my daughter, I would be devastated.
34:29Brian's attorneys reassured us that the best chance was an appeal.
34:34And I went into the trial with full knowledge that my son would be in prison for a short period
34:42of time.
34:44He recognized that what he did was horribly wrong.
34:49And he took accountability for it.
35:00The way that Brian acted in his confession, there was clearly emotion there.
35:07I believed that Brian assisting the police in locating the videotape demonstrated his remorse and desire to come clean.
35:21Brian admitted that he was there when Cassie was murdered.
35:27That Tori Adamczyk was really the driving force behind it.
35:31Who's in there?
35:32Tori made him stab her.
35:35He said, I have to kill her. I have to kill her since he's covered.
35:39What are you doing?
35:40We were in for the job. Everyone in there and stabbed her.
35:44I felt that had Brian not met Tori, this never would have happened.
35:56The Adamczyk family hired me to represent Tori in this manner.
36:00I knew that Draper had talked to the police and said, well, you know, I was there, but Tori was
36:07the leader.
36:09And, of course, that became a major question in the case.
36:13Who was the leader in this case?
36:18Tori wrote down the address where he was going that night.
36:21He told me.
36:22He specifically said, we're going to Whispering Cliffs, Cassie's house, her boyfriend Matt's going to be there.
36:32If you're planning to go and kill somebody, do you tell your mother the whole details of where you're going?
36:40I just, I don't know. None of it made any sense. None of it makes any sense.
36:50Brian had all that stuff. It was at his house.
36:54He had the knives and the shirts.
36:56He packed it all, he brought it.
36:59I think that Tori got involved in something and he did not know how far it was going to go.
37:08They were writing a screenplay, but that has nothing to do with the video that is made.
37:15That is completely separate.
37:21Very okay.
37:23It's a pretty compelling piece of evidence.
37:25The video by now had become a little bit infamous.
37:29Attorneys for both defendants sought to suppress the video tape.
37:33This homemade tape was admitted despite repeated efforts by the defense to keep it from the jury's eyes, claiming it
37:39was improperly handled and duplicated by police.
37:42What would we be able to potentially keep out?
37:46It was going to be an extremely daunting challenge to deal with that.
37:52We're hearing this, Veronica.
37:54Fortunately, we have the grueling task of killing our two friends.
37:58And they are right in a house just down the street.
38:07Everyone in the courtroom, I think, was impacted by that moment.
38:14We just killed Cassie.
38:16We just left her house.
38:18This is not a fucking joke.
38:19I stabbed her in the throat and I saw her lifeless body just disappear.
38:25It doesn't sound like my son.
38:28I don't see a kid bragging.
38:32I don't see a kid...
38:36I don't see that.
38:37I see and hear in my son's voice shock of what just happened, that it was real.
38:47I can hear that in his voice because I know him.
38:51This is not a fucking joke.
38:53Oh, fuck.
38:54That felt like fucking real.
38:56The tape Brian and Tori made is damning.
39:00It is the whole case.
39:07The defense maintains Draper thought all along he was only making a home movie,
39:11and that Adam Cech is responsible for the murder.
39:14The problem with Draper's interviews is he never tells the truth.
39:17They were bigger, they were stronger, and they were armed with knives that evening.
39:23Cassie didn't stand a chance.
39:27Okay.
39:29Prosecution's case, you know, how do you defend this?
39:47I was going to be one to make the primary strategy decisions in consultation with Aaron Thompson.
39:54There was really no physical evidence.
39:57All of that was circumstantial.
40:00Tori's DNA was found on one of the masks and on his shirt.
40:06Draper's DNA was pretty much on everything.
40:09Folks, the evidence will be clear.
40:11The evidence will show that Brian Lee Draper killed Cassie Stoddard.
40:17Our strategy would, of course, be to show that the police stopped their investigation.
40:23The police felt like the case was done once they found that tape.
40:28The most damning evidence that we had on Tori Adamczyk would be the video.
40:34The problem with that is that videotape doesn't prove what they wanted to prove.
40:40The only person that confessed to stabbing Cassie was Brian.
40:45Was it just during the stomach area of the child or the lady?
40:49The lady takes home to catch him with the lady.
40:54This boy takes ownership.
40:56He doesn't say it.
40:57He says, ah.
40:59That 16-year-old voice speaking, folks, was not Tori Adamczyk.
41:04In Brian's defense, they were trying to allude to the possibility that Brian was just a bystander while Tori was
41:13committing the crime.
41:15In Tori's defense, they were flat out trying to tell you Tori didn't do anything, Brian did it.
41:22Brian even admitted it.
41:23All of the evidence in terms of the actual stabbing tied Draper to the event and nothing tied Tori.
41:32There was no specific DNA evidence, no witnesses.
41:37When Draper threw Tori under the bus, the police clearly bought that story hook, line and sinker, and the forensic
41:44evidence didn't match that.
41:46Thomas was questioned on how carefully evidence was gathered, pointing out Adamczyk's DNA was not found on any of the
41:52items.
41:53Brian Draper's DNA was.
41:56The police recovered two knives at Black Rock Canyon.
41:59It's a Sloan knife.
42:01The other one was identified as a Rambo knife that had a serrated edge.
42:07And the forensic evidence was that almost all of the wounds were created by the Rambo knife.
42:13What color is your name?
42:15Black.
42:16And it was silver and soft.
42:18The Rambo knife was connected to Brian Draper.
42:23The other thing that was out there was that Draper had clearly demonstrated a dissatisfaction with his classmates and with
42:32his life.
42:34Brian wrote, the past five years in my life have been a living hell, teasing, taunting, getting picked on.
42:42I was asked by the court to conduct a psychological evaluation of Brian.
42:49I got the videotape and then I did get some of his writing.
43:02This Black River essay, it's a violent story about two students who do sort of a Columbine kind of episode
43:11at Pocatello High School.
43:13Two gunmen wearing black trench coats and black masks came in shooting and began working their way through the school.
43:20The writing that he did was a way of coping with those violent thoughts.
43:29I felt like Brian has to be disturbed. He'd spent years thinking about things like this. I saw that Tori
43:38did not have that. And that was a big deal.
43:48Black River was something that I didn't know about. And I remember telling our lawyer, don't ever do that to
43:56me again. Don't ever let me find something out in court.
44:00It's very obvious that Draper was emotionally invested in things like Columbine and that some of these thoughts were ingrained.
44:12Cassie's DNA was found on one mask. That mask was connected to Brian.
44:18Cassie's DNA was found on one knife. That knife was connected to Brian.
44:24Cassie's DNA was found on one shirt. That DNA was connected to Brian.
44:30Cassie's DNA was found on one hand. I think that the evidence clearly showed that Draper was the individual who
44:38actually stabbed and murdered Cassie.
44:41There was no direct evidence that put the knife in Tori's hands.
44:47He didn't do it. And you know he didn't do it because of the evidence.
44:53He was led along by a guy named Brian Lee Draper. And he says on the videotape, I killed her.
45:02There was one assailant. It was Brian Lee Draper.
45:23He doesn't do it.
45:41He was a σε okay guide.
45:41He was a beast.
45:41Gracias.
