00:16I love you, and I'll talk to you later.
00:20That was the last video message that I got from him.
00:24Bradley and I, we met at vacation Bible school
00:27at the church that we attended.
00:30I was 14.
00:32Bradley was the type of guy that never met a stranger.
00:35He would drop whatever he's doing to come help you.
00:38He was just amazing.
00:41On January 28th was a normal morning.
00:44Bradley got up, got dressed, got his lunch,
00:48hugged and kissed me and all of our bodies.
00:54It's just never thought it would happen.
01:08A quiet apartment complex on the north side.
01:34We do have help on the way out there.
01:45How long ago did you find him?
01:47Four minutes ago, four minutes ago.
02:01For homicide detectives,
02:03their chance of solving a murder
02:04is cut in half
02:06if they don't get a lead
02:07within the first 48 hours.
02:3610-15, we got a call
02:38that one of the vendors that does pest control
02:40was found shot in front of one of the buildings.
02:44What's the victim's name?
02:46Jordan.
02:46Bradley Jordan?
02:47Bradley Jordan.
02:4923-year-old Bradley Jordan
02:51was the first of his family
02:53to graduate from high school
02:54and worked with his father
02:56in the pest control industry.
02:57He married his high school sweetheart,
03:00Hannah,
03:01just four months ago
03:02and they had a one-year-old son.
03:05Bradley also leaves behind his parents
03:06and three siblings.
03:10Welcome.
03:11Welcome.
03:12Welcome.
03:13Welcome.
03:14Welcome.
03:16Welcome.
03:16That's a lot of blood.
03:26Just one entry here,
03:27it looked like.
03:28Behind his left ear?
03:29Yeah.
03:30It looked like there was
03:31a chip on the other side.
03:32Yeah, he was open.
03:33Bradley was shot once in the head
03:35at close range.
03:37We have a shell casing
03:38next to the body.
03:39It's next to the front wheel
03:41of that black vehicle.
03:43The casing is a 9mm.
03:46He has a can right next to him.
03:47That's the cans
03:48that they use to spray.
03:51My guess is he's coming down
03:52with the can.
03:54He's coming back to his vehicle
03:55and then gets shot.
03:57Gets executed
03:58in the back of his head.
04:00Detectives believe
04:01the shooter walked up
04:02behind Bradley,
04:03catching him by surprise.
04:05His pants are tight enough
04:07to see his wallet
04:08and his phone
04:09in the pockets.
04:11We can get that phone
04:11in his pocket.
04:14It was already set
04:16to never utter lock.
04:17The team searches
04:18Bradley's recent messages.
04:20My one and only
04:23this morning
04:24is like,
04:24babe, call me.
04:25Babe, call me.
04:25Please, I love you.
04:27It's probably his wife.
04:29What time was that?
04:30All after?
04:30Yeah, it was all after.
04:31And find several
04:32missed calls
04:33and texts
04:34from family.
04:37I don't know.
04:38I gotta figure out
04:39why a guy
04:40would be executed
04:41in the breezeway
04:42while he's at work.
04:51That's my son.
04:53Okay.
04:53Bradley's father,
04:54who also works
04:55for the pest control company,
04:57rushed to the scene
04:57after hearing
04:58one of his co-workers
04:59had been shot.
05:01Were you and him
05:01working today together?
05:03No.
05:03We all work by ourselves.
05:05How often does he come here?
05:06Every week.
05:07Every week?
05:08Same day every week?
05:09Yeah.
05:09Same time every week?
05:11Usually about the same time
05:12he was on the middle of the week.
05:14He's only 23.
05:15He's just a kid.
05:16I don't know why
05:17anybody would hurt him.
05:19I mean,
05:19because he's just a nice kid.
05:20He goes to church.
05:21He doesn't have any enemies.
05:23He doesn't have no beef
05:23with nobody.
05:25My wife and my other sons
05:26are home,
05:27and I've got to get there
05:28with him.
05:28My wife, she's freaking out.
05:30Do you want me to see
05:30if I can send the unit
05:31over there?
05:32No, I just need
05:33to be there with him.
05:34Okay.
05:40One hour in.
05:41Okay, if you could,
05:42just tell me everything
05:43from the beginning
05:44as much detail as you can.
05:46Lawson interviews
05:46one of the 911 callers
05:48in her apartment.
06:10She says the shooter ran
06:13toward an apartment complex
06:14across the street.
06:16I'm like, oh my God.
06:19I saw the gun.
06:20It was a short-nosed gun.
06:23And clothing.
06:25I noticed he had
06:26the khaki pants.
06:27They had a light-colored shirt.
06:29Any facial hair
06:30or anything like that?
06:32I didn't really see his face,
06:34so I couldn't identify it.
06:37Okay, did you hear
06:38anything said?
06:40Not a word.
06:41Nothing?
06:42Not a sound.
06:44There wasn't a single person
06:45down here except me.
06:50She said she saw him drop,
06:52and she said it's a small,
06:54snub-nosed skin zone.
06:55There was no argument.
06:57There was no...
06:57He didn't rob him.
06:58He didn't take anything from him.
06:59He just freaking straight out
07:00executes this guy?
07:03That makes no sense.
07:07I'm going to go
07:07and start canvassing for cameras,
07:09see if I see anything
07:09on apartments.
07:11While the team searches
07:13for video in the complex
07:14where the shooting occurred...
07:16The female said
07:17they ran through here.
07:19The K-9 unit hopes
07:20to pick up the suspect's trail.
07:31Okay, I'm picking up
07:32crack right here.
07:34He could have ran down this hill.
07:36Here's the footprint right here.
07:44He's picking something up
07:45over here.
07:47I'm going to pull him.
07:50Yeah.
07:54I don't have anything
07:55here or there.
07:57The suspect's trail
07:58goes cold
07:59in the parking lot
08:00of the apartment complex
08:02across the street.
08:05When our K-9s
08:06were tracking them,
08:07they traveled on this side,
08:09but this was already here.
08:12So this is where
08:13it looks like he slid down.
08:16And then there's
08:17some tracks that go that way.
08:18I'm going to photograph
08:19those as I go.
08:28Two hours in.
08:30Let me talk to this
08:31name, this guy.
08:32Patrol finds a witness
08:33outside the apartments
08:34across the street.
08:37So what did you see
08:38this morning?
08:46The witness saw the man
08:48minutes before patrol
08:49arrived at the crime scene.
08:54What color
08:55was his shirt?
09:02His pants?
09:03The pantalón
09:04was of a
09:05gris,
09:06but of course.
09:08And in his pantalón,
09:10in the part
09:10of his pantalón,
09:11at the height of his pump,
09:12it was dirty.
09:16Okay.
09:17The stain itself,
09:18was it consistent
09:19with like somebody
09:20falling?
09:28Okay.
09:33Okay.
09:34You happen to know
09:35a make or a make
09:36or a model?
09:37We're at Ford
09:38Idle Star.
09:40All right.
09:43The dog
09:44tracked to that spot
09:45where they saw him
09:46get in that van.
09:49The dog tracked,
09:50there's like a muddy trail
09:51and the witnesses
09:52are seeing him all muddy.
09:54That could be
09:55our suspect vehicle.
10:12It's possible
10:13that could be
10:13our suspect vehicle.
10:15So right now,
10:16that's a vehicle
10:16we're going to go look into.
10:22Were you able
10:23to upload the video?
10:25Yeah, the actual video
10:27is right here.
10:27The team finds
10:29a doorbell camera
10:30next door
10:30to where Bradley
10:31was murdered.
10:32Right there.
10:33Ford Aerostar van.
10:37See the van?
10:39So,
10:39at 10.03,
10:40we've got him
10:40coming down
10:41through here
10:41on this camera.
10:43A green Aerostar
10:44drove through the complex
10:4510 minutes
10:46before Bradley
10:47was murdered.
10:50And that same van
10:52was seen parked
10:52at a complex
10:53next to here.
10:55And the dog
10:55did track
10:56all the way
10:57to where he was parked.
10:59The van is missing
11:00a hubcap.
11:02Detectives
11:02are unable
11:03to make out
11:03the tag number.
11:05They don't have cameras
11:06at the front entrance
11:07coming in, correct?
11:08They're not working.
11:11We have technology
11:12on our side
11:13as far as
11:13flop cameras.
11:15The sheriff's office
11:17will search
11:17for the green Aerostar
11:18on cameras located
11:19at major intersections
11:20throughout Gwinnett County.
11:26The property manager
11:27saw the vehicle
11:28yesterday
11:29between one
11:30and three.
11:31The property manager
11:33gave a description
11:34of the driver.
11:35Black man
11:36with glasses
11:36so there's
11:37prescription.
11:38Black frames.
11:41So that's the second
11:42time they've seen
11:43this van.
11:45That van came in
11:46here yesterday
11:47so he's obviously
11:48canvassing this place
11:50for some reason.
11:52Look at that.
11:53Yeah.
11:54Could be.
11:56Otherwise,
11:56it would be really random
11:57just for him
11:59to get shot out here
11:59while he's doing
12:00his pass control work.
12:05Just three hours in,
12:07the team gets a break.
12:08We found the same van
12:11this morning
12:12at 9.30
12:13in Walmart
12:14down the streets
12:15on a flop camera.
12:1745 minutes
12:19before the murder,
12:20a green Aerostar
12:21was captured on camera
12:22two miles
12:23from the crime scene.
12:25It's the green
12:26Astro van
12:26that's missing
12:27a hubcap.
12:28Okay.
12:28Same hubcap
12:29that's missing
12:30in this video.
12:31And they have a tag
12:32for it
12:32and the registered
12:33owner.
12:33It's a blackmail.
12:35Okay.
12:35This is the
12:36registered owner
12:36of the vehicle.
12:38The owner of the van,
12:4026-year-old
12:41Rakeem Wilson,
12:42grew up in Charlotte,
12:43North Carolina
12:44and works as a cook
12:45at a local restaurant.
12:48Just because the car
12:49was riding through here
12:51does not mean
12:52that he killed it.
12:53No.
12:54That he killed this guy.
12:55Let's take a deep breath.
12:58You got a pretty strong linkage.
12:59The dog tracking
13:01from here to over there.
13:02And that helps it
13:03because now you have
13:04the people saying
13:05he was covered in mud.
13:06How did that vehicle
13:07description,
13:08they see this guy
13:09get in?
13:09Definitely have
13:10a lot of CC
13:11to get into the car.
13:12It should come to the car.
13:23Now our victim,
13:24unfortunately,
13:25you know,
13:25he's just here
13:26for work
13:27doing pest control.
13:28So it's weird
13:29that this has happened.
13:32I definitely think
13:33it's personal
13:34because it was
13:35one shot to the head.
13:36There's nothing
13:36taking off the body.
13:39Hopefully we can figure
13:39out some kind of connection
13:40or why somebody
13:41would want to do
13:42something like this.
13:50Minutes later,
13:51the case takes a turn.
13:56Gang unit officers
13:58spot the green van
13:5910 miles from the scene
14:03and find Rakeem Wilson
14:06behind the wheel.
14:10He agrees to talk
14:11at homicide.
14:15And his van
14:17is brought down
14:18to headquarters.
14:20Nobody saw him
14:21shoot anybody.
14:23We have no physical
14:23evidence against him
14:25except for the van.
14:27I'm worried about
14:28the fact he didn't
14:28get in the van here.
14:30He got in the van
14:31across the street
14:32at the other complex.
14:33They didn't see him
14:34leave from here.
14:35They didn't see him
14:36come from this complex.
14:38No, no.
14:38All this could be
14:39a coincidence.
14:40Right, right.
14:41So that's my problem.
14:44Unfortunately,
14:45I think this is
14:46one of those things
14:46where you have to
14:47play the hand
14:48that you're dealt.
14:48Yep.
14:50Lawson heads back
14:51to homicide
14:52to interview
14:53Rakeem Wilson.
14:54We'll go up there.
14:55We'll go do our thing.
14:58When you deal
14:59with a homicide
15:00where you can't
15:01find an obvious
15:02or even an underlining
15:03motive, it is scary.
15:06At the end of the day,
15:07we want to find justice
15:07for the Jordan family
15:09and for the son
15:10as he goes on
15:12and does his journey
15:13without his dad.
15:15I can relate to that.
15:16You know,
15:17I lost my father
15:18at a young age.
15:18I was six
15:19at the time
15:20that he died.
15:21He was involved
15:23in a car accident
15:24where it was suspected
15:25that the other driver
15:26was intoxicated.
15:29And so knowing
15:31that Jordan's son
15:32is going to grow up
15:34without his father,
15:35that's a sobering thought.
15:37He will have
15:38a lot of resentment
15:39and anger,
15:40just like I have.
15:41But you can't hang
15:42on to that.
15:43You've got to deal
15:43with it
15:44and move on
15:46to be productive.
15:47All I can do
15:48is be the best
15:49that I can be
15:50and hopefully
15:50he looks down
15:51and he's proud.
16:01Right now,
16:02we're trying
16:03to establish
16:04PC
16:05for our homicide.
16:08We have no physical
16:09evidence against him
16:11to suggest
16:12that he is
16:12the suspect
16:14in this case
16:14except for the van.
16:16So at any point
16:17if he decides to leave,
16:18we have to let him
16:18walk out the door.
16:21It's going to take us
16:21a few hours
16:22to search the van.
16:25It's important
16:26for us to keep him
16:26talking, occupied
16:28so he does not leave.
16:32Clock's on.
16:35What was his demeanor?
16:37He was calm.
16:38He didn't even ask
16:39really why I was doing
16:40what I was doing.
16:41He wasn't like agitating.
16:43Kept saying that
16:44he was going to go
16:44and clean his car out.
16:45It looks like he lives
16:46in his car.
16:46He got a toothbrush,
16:47toothpaste.
16:49While we're trying
16:50to build a rapport
16:51with this guy,
16:52Smith's going to do
16:53the search warrant
16:53on the vehicle.
16:55We're going to have
16:55to speed up
16:56this whole process.
16:58All right, you ready?
16:59Let's knock it out of the park.
17:03A lot's riding
17:04on this interview.
17:07Is it Mr. Wilson?
17:08Yeah, I agree.
17:09All right, excellent.
17:10Can you sit right here
17:11for me, sir?
17:16So we're just going
17:17to talk to you,
17:18get some information.
17:19It's time to figure out
17:21why I'm here.
17:36Your vehicle is unique,
17:38and so we have interest
17:40in your vehicle.
17:41That's part of the reason
17:42that you're in this room
17:43right now.
17:43OK, I was just leaving
17:45the gym, and I had
17:46to clean out my car
17:46because I'd be sleeping
17:47in my car.
17:52I work right there.
17:54I work at the Hooters,
17:54and I work at the Margo's.
17:56I make pieces.
17:58What do you mean
17:59working at that?
18:00LA Fitness,
18:01I'm living here.
18:03So, I mean,
18:04I didn't do anything
18:04out of the ordinary.
18:06OK.
18:07What time did you
18:08go to LA Fitness
18:09to work out?
18:10It was maybe like 10.
18:15At 10.03,
18:16we got him coming
18:17down through here.
18:18On this camera.
18:20LA Fitness
18:20at Pleasant Hill
18:21in Sweetwater.
18:22See if this guy
18:23has a gym membership.
18:25OK.
18:25And see if he scanned
18:26to go in this morning.
18:28How could he be there
18:29when he was getting
18:29to see there?
18:30Good morning.
18:31Well, that's what
18:32we're trying to verify.
18:34He's talking.
18:35So that's applause.
18:37Detective Brian Dormady
18:38heads to Rakim's gym
18:40to check out his alibi.
18:42What am I here for?
18:45You know,
18:46I know it's not illegal
18:47to sleep in your car,
18:47but I didn't do nothing.
18:52We've had a real big rash
18:54of HVAC systems
18:56that are being stolen.
18:59Dunning tells Rakim
19:00they're investigating
19:01the theft of several
19:02air conditioning systems.
19:05And damage.
19:06People are...
19:07I'm homeless.
19:08So I ain't out of here
19:09stealing nothing or nothing.
19:13There's no stolen property
19:14in my car.
19:15I work.
19:16I get money.
19:17I haven't did nothing.
19:18I'm allowed by a system.
19:20He's not been anything
19:21like anybody would normally be.
19:22No.
19:23Very calm,
19:24but he's not saying,
19:24hey, get me out of here.
19:28I'm sure you know
19:29everywhere you drive,
19:30there are cameras.
19:32Okay?
19:33You're in an apartment complex
19:35at the same time
19:36that you say you're at
19:37L.A. Fitness
19:38working out.
19:41You've already decided
19:42you want to lie to us
19:43about where you are,
19:44and so that's why
19:45I'm asking you about...
19:47Wait, what?
19:51Am I a suspect
19:52or something?
19:52Am I...
19:53Why?
19:53So the cops pulled me over.
19:55What happened?
19:56Like, why am I here exactly?
19:59I just got pulled over
20:00out of nowhere.
20:03Did you go to the Walmart today?
20:06Dunning asks him
20:07about the location
20:07where his van was seen
20:08on Flock cameras
20:0945 minutes before the murder.
20:13Uh, okay, yeah, that way.
20:17Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
20:21I went to Walmart, uh,
20:23so what time is it now?
20:25So, uh, I went to Walmart
20:27before I went to the gym.
20:29Yeah.
20:31Uh, and I probably took
20:32some back roads, back.
20:34I probably made a U-turn,
20:36and, uh,
20:37Sugar Mill apartment.
20:40Rakim admits to driving
20:41through the apartments
20:42where Bradley was murdered.
20:45Is that the first time
20:46you've been in Sugar Mill's apartments?
20:51The property manager saw the vehicle
20:53yesterday between one and three.
21:01Why would you say
21:02specifically yesterday?
21:05Yeah, I'm looking for something
21:06to happen yesterday.
21:07I'm not.
21:11Do you have any tools
21:12or anything like that,
21:13any wrenches,
21:14screwdrivers,
21:15blowtorches,
21:15anything that would assist
21:16in removing an HVAC system
21:18or anything like that
21:19from behind a business?
21:20Oh, no, no, no.
21:21You ain't gonna find
21:21that strange in my car.
21:27While Lawson and Dunning
21:29try to keep Rakim talking,
21:31He's unsexual.
21:32Smith and CSI have a warrant
21:34to search the Aerostar.
21:37Khaki pants,
21:38a white shirt,
21:38and the muddy shoes
21:40are something
21:40we're looking for, too.
21:41Yeah.
21:42And then the gun
21:42is the most important
21:43for right now.
21:44Nine millimeter.
21:50He does have a notebook
21:51in here.
21:53He's, like,
21:54suing everybody
21:55on conspiracy theories.
21:56Like, he's suing
21:57Homeland Security.
21:58He's suing the government.
21:59Just take a picture
22:00of the insides
22:01because it's a little weird.
22:06Khaki pants
22:07over there in the apartment.
22:09They muddy?
22:10I feel like he went
22:11somewhere and washed
22:12the clothes
22:12because those pants
22:13looked like they were wet.
22:16I mean, a picture of them.
22:20They've got muddy shoes.
22:21They look like rocks.
22:23Yeah.
22:23They look like slip-ons.
22:25Yeah.
22:25They're muddy.
22:26Yeah, mud all over them.
22:39Down.
22:42Nine millimeter.
22:57Take a picture of the gun
22:58real quick
22:59so I can send it to Pat.
23:06So now I'm going to take
23:07this gun over to the range
23:08and we are going to
23:10have it test fired
23:12so we can get that round
23:13back over here
23:14and immediately try
23:15to compare it
23:15to the round from the scene.
23:17Will you text them that?
23:18Yeah.
23:27Anything else that would be
23:28of importance in your car
23:29that we should know about?
23:31Nothing strange at all?
23:33Outside of the trash,
23:34clothing, tools,
23:36weapons, anything at all?
23:37I don't know if I have
23:38a weapon in my car
23:39that I recently bought.
23:41It's a Ruger 9 millimeter.
23:44I just bought that gun
23:46because I was sleeping
23:48in my car.
23:48Somebody tried to, like,
23:50wiggle my doorknob
23:52and get into my car one night
23:53and I was, like,
23:54mad paranoid after that.
23:59As far as what you remember,
24:00you're working out today.
24:03I was at the gym this morning.
24:05You could check my movements,
24:07everything.
24:08I wouldn't know
24:08we're doing nothing
24:09with nobody.
24:13Okay.
24:14Let us follow up
24:15on some things
24:16and see if we can get you
24:16out of here
24:17as quickly as possible.
24:18That's fine.
24:19All right.
24:21One hour
24:22into the interview
24:23with Rakeem.
24:24Here's the thing.
24:25We're getting to the point
24:25where we're stretching out
24:26how long we're going
24:27to be able to.
24:27The gun needs to be test fired.
24:29That could take
24:29two to three hours.
24:31We have to keep him talking
24:32while this whole process
24:34takes place.
24:35Okay.
24:35I was trying to stall us
24:37as much as we can.
24:38He keeps asking,
24:40why am I here?
24:41Why am I here?
24:41Why am I here?
24:43I would just start
24:44putting the things out
24:45that we already know.
24:47Okay.
24:48When you said Walmart,
24:49oh, yeah, I did go there.
24:50And then he kept talking
24:52and then did you go
24:53anywhere else?
24:54No, no, no, no.
24:55And then somebody said
24:56something about
24:57department complex.
24:58You go in any apartment?
24:58Oh, yeah, I did.
24:59I made a U-turn
25:00in department complex.
25:02Every time we start
25:03to confront him,
25:03we thought, oh, yeah, yeah,
25:05he will backtrack.
25:05So we're going to have
25:06to give himself.
25:07You want to hit him
25:07with the muddy clothing
25:08first before you confront
25:09him with the other stuff
25:10because he starts getting
25:11on the defensive.
25:12He may shut down.
25:13Okay.
25:14You good with that?
25:15Yeah.
25:16Go back in there.
25:17Continue talking to him.
25:20All right.
25:23Detective Lawson wanted
25:24to discuss something
25:25else real quick.
25:26We're in your vehicle
25:27right now.
25:28Okay?
25:29And so one thing
25:30that I'm curious about
25:31is the muddy clothes
25:33that are in the front
25:34of the vehicle,
25:35which is fresh mud.
25:37How did that occur?
25:38Why would this mud
25:39have to do with this?
25:43Did you go into
25:44another apartment complex
25:46outside of Sugar Mills
25:47today?
25:49No.
25:50I did a couple U-turns.
25:51I was just joyriding
25:52minding my business.
25:54So was there a possibility
25:56that you did another U-turn
25:57in another complex?
25:58Because here's the thing.
26:00I have witnesses
26:00that describe you.
26:05No, sir.
26:05Yes.
26:06Yes.
26:08I saw the pants.
26:10Yeah.
26:10The light-colored pants
26:11with mud all over them.
26:13We're trying your vehicle
26:14right now.
26:15That's why we're asking
26:16you about this.
26:17So what is that?
26:18No, no, no.
26:19Make us understand it.
26:20No, sir.
26:20No, no.
26:21I don't know what
26:24y'all talking about.
26:27He's looking for this guy.
26:29To park all the way
26:30over there and walk,
26:31that's premeditated.
26:32So I don't know
26:32there's some kind of
26:34connection with him
26:35with that guy.
26:37At this point,
26:38it just doesn't make
26:38any sense.
26:39That guy's going to
26:40tell it all.
26:41We're going to know
26:41to see him.
26:42We're in your car.
26:44You've got a gun
26:45in your car.
26:46I have a gun
26:46for my process.
26:53I need this weapon
26:54test fire.
26:56What kind of is it?
26:57It's a Ruger 9mm.
26:59We're just in a time
27:00crunch holding this guy
27:01because we really don't
27:02have much to hold him on.
27:03So everything's just
27:04trying to go as fast
27:04as we can right now.
27:11There we go.
27:12Wonderful.
27:13I'll let you know
27:14if it matches.
27:15All right.
27:15Detective Smith
27:16will have the test
27:17fired casing
27:18compared to the shell
27:19casing found
27:20near Bradley's body.
27:23The dad of the victim
27:24said that he's
27:25a good kid.
27:26He goes to church
27:26all the time.
27:27He's got a new wife
27:28and they have a kid.
27:30As far as this
27:30potential suspect,
27:31right now the motive
27:32is the thing
27:33that's really bothering
27:34is what transpired
27:35for him to want
27:36to shoot this guy
27:38if he did.
27:44Okay, well,
27:46here's the thing.
27:46At the apartment complex
27:48that you drove in
27:49at 10.03,
27:5110 minutes later,
27:53a person is killed.
27:58Okay?
27:59And your description...
28:01He didn't hear for murder.
28:03Who got killed?
28:05There's a guy
28:06from pest control.
28:07Laying in the parking lot.
28:08Your description
28:09is given by witnesses.
28:13Dude, I don't know
28:14what type of stuff
28:15y'all doing
28:16that don't have
28:17nothing to do with me.
28:18I ain't kill nobody.
28:20Like I said,
28:21my stuff checks out.
28:22None of your stuff
28:23checks out.
28:24Your ain't checking out.
28:28Listen,
28:29y'all need to calm down
28:29when y'all talking to me.
28:30I'm not a killer.
28:32Well, right now,
28:33it looks like you are.
28:34I don't do these conversations.
28:35I don't know
28:35what y'all talking about.
28:42He's flustered now.
28:43Yeah, he is.
28:44He doesn't know what to do.
28:45He'll rub his hand
28:46or his belly.
28:48You get something
28:49that comes from
28:49when he starts rubbing
28:50his belly.
28:54I was working out.
28:55All I did today
28:56was work out.
28:57I ain't do nothing.
28:59Talking about
28:59killing people.
29:01Look, maybe,
29:03perhaps,
29:03you worked out.
29:05Perhaps I didn't
29:06kill anybody.
29:08Well,
29:0910 minutes before
29:10the killing,
29:11you're in Sugar Mill's
29:12apartment.
29:15And that's on video.
29:17Doing a U-turn.
29:20So you said?
29:23You can't.
29:24I think you were
29:25doing a murder.
29:29Bruh, it wasn't me, bruh.
29:30And don't be in here
29:31talking to me like you're crazy
29:32because I ain't kill nobody.
29:48I'm not a killer.
29:50I'm out here working hard,
29:51going to work.
29:51That's it.
29:52I got in trouble
29:54a while back
29:55for a burglary charge.
29:56But I worked real hard
29:57to get out of probation
29:58for that.
30:03You're not here
30:04just randomly.
30:07You had to call
30:08Ellie Finns
30:08because I was at
30:09this morning.
30:10And we've got somebody
30:11working on that.
30:25A half hour later,
30:27Dormany gets video
30:28from Akeem's gym.
30:30So,
30:31Rakeem Wilson's
30:32right here.
30:3311.17,
30:35so it's an hour
30:35after the 911 call.
30:37Rakeem arrived
30:38at the gym
30:39an hour
30:40after Bradley
30:41was shot.
30:45Basically in the middle
30:45of this workout area.
30:48Doing a little bit
30:49of a press.
30:54I have a hard time
30:55believing that
30:56someone is that cold
30:58that they can go
30:58pump iron
30:59after taking
31:00somebody's life.
31:02I'd probably be
31:03freaking out
31:03and driving
31:03as far as I could,
31:04but that is not
31:05normal behavior.
31:06We have to see
31:07what that firearm suggests.
31:09A lot's rotting
31:10on the gun
31:11that's in the car.
31:13Then...
31:17In the mud?
31:19Yeah.
31:20The shoe that's in his car
31:21matches the tread
31:22that's on the team.
31:46The shoes that are in your car,
31:48the shoe print
31:49matches the track.
31:51and I have
31:52and we have
31:52proof.
31:59I worked out
32:01I did mine right there.
32:02Did you go to the gym
32:03after you killed that man?
32:07And take a shower?
32:09Did you go
32:09to the gym
32:11after you killed
32:12that man
32:13in an apartment complex?
32:16I didn't kill no man, bro.
32:22You're trying
32:23to put this on me.
32:24Oh, you got so lucky
32:25this guy was in the area.
32:26No.
32:27I didn't kill that man, bro.
32:33We've got your black Crocs
32:35with the mud on them.
32:36It's still wet to the touch.
32:39Matching the shoe prints
32:40on scene.
32:41I don't want to care about
32:42I don't want to focus
32:43on the mud.
32:44Everybody probably got mud
32:45on their shoes right now.
32:48Everybody probably got
32:49a 9mm in their house
32:51and why are you not
32:52knocking on doors
32:53to see who killed that man?
32:55Whoever he was
32:56pest controlling
32:57probably killed him.
32:59I've never been in no
33:01first 48 office
33:03talking about murders,
33:04no gang activity,
33:05none of that crazy stuff.
33:06That gun
33:07does not even
33:08leave the car.
33:17We're just all
33:18going to stand
33:18over Brittany's shoulder.
33:21This is the casing
33:23from the scene.
33:24We take a picture
33:25of the head stamp
33:27to see
33:29like what type
33:30of characteristics
33:31could be
33:32a potential case
33:33linked to
33:34the other casings.
33:39A firearms examiner
33:40will compare
33:41the markings
33:41on the two
33:42fired casings.
33:43How long does it
33:44normally take her
33:45to look at them
33:45and compare?
33:46Well not long,
33:47like within an hour.
33:48If they match,
33:49he's done.
33:53We're going to
33:53test fire that gun,
33:55okay?
33:56And we're going to
33:56see if that shell casing
33:58from the test fire
33:59matches the shell casing
34:01that's next to the body.
34:02It's not the gun
34:03that killed that man.
34:07And that's the only gun
34:09you've ever had.
34:09That's the only gun
34:11I ever had,
34:11weapon I ever had.
34:13My gun didn't kill
34:14that man.
34:20Anything Brittany?
34:22Not yet.
34:23The firearms examiner
34:25is looking for
34:25tiny striations
34:26or grooves
34:27that appear
34:28on both casings.
34:30Okay.
34:31No, we're still waiting.
34:32I mean,
34:33she's supposed to expedite it,
34:34but I don't want it.
34:35All right, all right.
34:36They don't have agents.
34:44All right, got it.
34:47Come on, be a match.
34:51It matches.
35:00Hey, the shell casings match.
35:03Yes!
35:05It matched.
35:06All right.
35:06It matched.
35:07We're going to finish
35:08the search one on the car.
35:10All right.
35:10Hey, appreciate it.
35:11All right, bye.
35:11No problem.
35:12Was that Shelly that went,
35:13yeah!
35:15I've never heard of that happen.
35:16I neither.
35:17It's the best physical evidence
35:18we can have.
35:22I think, uh,
35:23the guns match.
35:25Nothing puts in the car.
35:26Yes, it matches.
35:27All right.
35:27So, guess what?
35:29Shell casing on scene
35:30matches your gun.
35:32No way.
35:36As your gun
35:37that is in your car
35:39matches
35:39the shell casing
35:41that is found
35:41next to his body.
35:43Period.
35:44I told you that was...
35:44Period.
35:58You want to just let go?
36:00This man was killed
36:01with a 9 million...
36:02With your gun.
36:03With your gun.
36:05It was killed
36:06with your gun.
36:07No denying that.
36:09Tests do not lie.
36:11When it fires a shell,
36:12a round goes out,
36:13the shell casing
36:14has marks on it.
36:15That shell casing
36:16next to this dead body
36:17comes from your gun.
36:23We've given you
36:24all the opportunity
36:25in the world
36:25to try to explain
36:26what happened today.
36:27I'm not a murderer, bruh.
36:29Stop talking to me
36:29crazy in here.
36:31Y'all need to investigate this.
36:32I didn't do it.
36:34We already found out
36:34who did it.
36:35It's you.
36:38You're being charged
36:39with murder.
36:39No ifs, ands, or buts.
36:41Your gun was used
36:42in that murder.
36:42I'm going to have to
36:43prove that in court
36:44because I didn't
36:45kill anybody.
36:46And especially
36:47no pest control dude.
36:49I'm trying to find out
36:50why he died
36:52for no reason.
36:54That's what I don't
36:55understand.
36:59It's a life.
37:00It's a son.
37:04Why did he have to die?
37:05Look, this dude
37:06is not connected
37:07to me in any way.
37:08Like, I don't know
37:09what you're saying
37:09about a firearm.
37:10That's the sad part of it.
37:11That is the sad part of it.
37:13We're done.
37:15Okay.
37:22This was definitely
37:23not an easy case.
37:25That was the most
37:26uncomfortable interview
37:26that I've done,
37:27and I've been doing
37:28interviews for a while.
37:30Just 10 hours
37:31into the first 48,
37:33Rakeem Wilson
37:34is charged
37:35with the murder
37:36of Bradley Jordan.
37:44So I'll just take you
37:46off the street
37:46and blame for murder
37:47and for the death.
37:48We presented you
37:49with more than enough
37:50evidence.
37:51We'll have your day in court.
37:55He didn't want
37:56to admit to anything.
37:59The family obviously
38:00doesn't have any reason
38:01for this,
38:02and I don't either.
38:05That's kind of hard.
38:08I don't have anything
38:09that showed
38:10that this victim
38:11had put himself
38:12in a situation
38:12other than going
38:13to work that day
38:14to be a victim
38:15of a homicide.
38:27We're trying to get
38:28to a motive.
38:29Lawson gets a lead
38:31on a possible motive
38:32from the notebook
38:33recovered in
38:34Rakeem's van.
38:37Everyone there
38:39has the same license plate
38:40starting with the letter R.
38:42I did not realize
38:44they'd been targeted
38:45and they obviously
38:46tapped my internet network
38:48and controlled
38:48the search results.
38:50Rakeem's writings
38:51suggest he believed
38:52he was being followed
38:53by government officials
38:54and that all
38:55of their license plates
38:57contain the letter R.
39:02That has an R in it.
39:04I already have my system
39:05so it's R.
39:07In Rakeem's phone,
39:08Lawson finds
39:09several photos
39:09of license plates
39:10with the letter R.
39:12Every single
39:14car that he comes across,
39:15he takes a picture
39:16while he's operating
39:17his vehicle.
39:18All of these people
39:19were potential victims.
39:22crazy.
39:24Just timing,
39:25circumstances.
39:26It just happens
39:27to be that the vehicle
39:28that belonged
39:29to your victim
39:30had a license plate
39:31that starts with R.
39:32Yeah.
39:32He takes pictures
39:33of our victim
39:35at 10.01
39:38inside the Sugar Mill
39:39apartments
39:40so he's already
39:41focused on
39:42oh, here's another person
39:43that's following me
39:45or is controlled
39:46by the government.
39:47The tag displayed
39:49on his vehicle
39:50just happened
39:50to contain a letter
39:51that set Mr. Wilson off.
39:55Moving forward,
39:56is he confident enough
39:59to stand a trial?
40:00Yeah.
40:01He's seen on video
40:0210 minutes before
40:03near that building
40:04but he had the wherewithal
40:06to park somewhere else.
40:07To park at another
40:08complex nearby
40:09and make his way
40:10back on foot.
40:10And that's rational thinking.
40:11Yes, it's twisted thinking
40:13but that is of somebody
40:15that's confident
40:16to reasonably think
40:17out of a plan
40:18to make somebody
40:19their victim.
40:20I have a strong feeling
40:21it would not have been
40:22his last.
40:46It's the first year
40:48he coached me.
40:51He made everyone feel
40:52like they were important
40:53on the team.
40:54That everyone had a place
40:57and he would run the bases
40:58with a superhero cape on
41:00just to be silly
41:02to make someone laugh
41:03to, you know,
41:05because that's the person
41:07he was.
41:08He taught me to show
41:10people love
41:11that even didn't show us love.
41:13Make everybody feel family.
41:16I just wish this guy
41:18would have known Brad,
41:19you know,
41:20to know that
41:21you took someone
41:23that would have been
41:24there for you.
41:29I'm going to miss most
41:30of the looks
41:30that he gave Oliver.
41:32When Brad looked at Oliver,
41:33you could see the love.
41:36He loved being that father.
41:38You know,
41:38it really breaks my heart.
41:40Oliver doesn't get
41:41to experience
41:41the great dad
41:42that he was going to be.
41:51Mom, my foot.
41:53Mom, my foot.
41:58Probably the top thing
42:00that I miss about Bradley
42:01sitting in with Oliver.
42:03Bradley's probably
42:03the best father I knew.
42:05When he would come home
42:06from work,
42:06Oliver,
42:07he was running to Bradley
42:08and he would be so excited.
42:11Hi!
42:12Oliver probably knows
42:13that he's gone,
42:14but he just,
42:15he's too little
42:16to actually understand.
42:21I'll just tell him
42:22that your dad passed away
42:23when you were a year and a half.
42:24Not go into the details.
42:26I don't think
42:27I could tell my kid that.
42:29Because then I wouldn't
42:30have a reason why.
42:31I don't have a reason why.
42:37I don't have a reason why.
42:38You know what?
42:39I don't get the story
42:39that he's to be alive.
42:40Oh, no.
42:42You can try me,
42:44I don't think that he's a little
