00:01This program documents actual homicide investigations.
00:05Criminal charges are often dropped or reduced,
00:07and all suspects shown are presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
00:24911, please, paramedical.
00:26Believe in medical, someone just got shot like five times.
00:31Do you see the person who got shot?
00:32They're laying on the floor.
00:34There's so many people out here.
00:37Not one.
00:37There's a man shot.
00:39He's still breathing.
00:40And he got on light pulse.
00:42Did you see who shot them?
00:43I just heard it.
00:45Dude is bleeding out right here.
00:46Y'all need to hurry up.
00:47They need to come back.
00:51Oh, hell.
00:52Shot five or six times.
00:53Yeah, get everybody.
00:54Okay, let's roll.
01:02Get back up.
01:03Get back up.
01:03Get back up.
01:04They find the gunshot victim dead.
01:22For homicide detectives, their chance of solving a murder
01:25is cut in half
01:26if they don't get a lead
01:28within the first 48 hours.
01:31What's up, man?
01:45Detective Mark Kennedy
01:46will lead the investigation.
01:49So we're seeing that.
01:50Right around here.
01:58What's the victim's name?
02:00Isaac Walker.
02:0521-year-old Isaac Walker
02:07was a senior at Langston University.
02:10He was a linebacker
02:12on the college football team
02:13and spent his free time
02:15fixing motorbikes.
02:17An only child,
02:19Isaac leaves behind his mother
02:20and a large extended family.
02:31Man, he hit him at close range.
02:33Isaac was shot seven times.
02:37You got his rifle casings.
02:39Really?
02:40Well, he looked like 223, or...?
02:42Yeah.
02:44CSI collects seven 223 rifle casings.
02:48His cell phone's over there.
02:55When he pulled up,
02:56there were 30 people.
02:58Had everybody that
02:59supposedly saw anything
03:00do with anything
03:01take it downtown.
03:03Patrol transported
03:04several witnesses to homicide
03:06for questioning.
03:08I spoke with a friend
03:09of the victim.
03:10The victim had been living with him
03:11for the past couple days,
03:12but he himself
03:14was not at the apartment complex
03:16when the victim was shot.
03:17He was at the store.
03:18Right.
03:22We've worked a few murders
03:23at this complex before.
03:25They're in the camera in here.
03:27The complex doesn't have
03:28any surveillance video.
03:31This is mine, right here.
03:33He's speaking wrong.
03:34Okay.
03:35Ms. Walker,
03:36I'm Detective Kennedy.
03:37I'm going to be the one
03:38that's got this case.
03:39Reggie's my backer.
03:40Sorry for your loss.
03:43Hello.
03:44We're going to take you down,
03:45and we just want to get
03:46all the information we can
03:47from you.
03:48Yeah.
03:48All right?
03:55One hour in,
03:56the team gets a lead.
03:58She said,
03:59as soon as they ran
03:59in that corner,
04:00they pulled up a big gun.
04:02A witness saw two men
04:03wearing baseball hats
04:04heading toward the crime scene
04:06with a rifle.
04:08Those two baseball cats
04:09primed by their car.
04:10You guys had them all.
04:12When the two men fled,
04:13they dropped their hats.
04:16So the hats
04:17are going to belong
04:17to our suspects?
04:18Yeah.
04:24So it's going to have
04:25them on the other side.
04:26All right.
04:31It says,
04:32little T is royalty.
04:34That'll stand out.
04:36If we're lucky,
04:37we got DNA on the hats.
04:40Right now,
04:41we're in the very infant
04:42stages of this,
04:43and I don't know
04:44where it's going to lead us.
04:51All right, Reg,
04:52you ready to start
04:52interviewing?
04:53We want to knock
04:54everybody out
04:54and do mom laughs?
04:55Yes.
05:01Hey, my name is Reggie.
05:03I'm a homicide detective.
05:05My name is
05:06Detective Kennedy,
05:07okay?
05:08Mm-hmm.
05:08Kennedy and
05:09Detective Reggie Warren
05:10split up
05:11to interview the witnesses.
05:13I'm the one
05:14that's going to be
05:14working this case
05:15and trying to figure out
05:15who did this to
05:16Isaac, okay?
05:18Yes, sir.
05:19When the shooting happened,
05:21can you tell me
05:22where you were at?
05:23I was on the other
05:24side of the building
05:25and I seen the two
05:26people walk in
05:27and they was coming
05:27in the gate.
05:28Did they walk
05:29into the complex
05:29or did they get
05:30out of a car?
05:31I just seen them
05:31walking on the sidewalk
05:33and then I seen
05:33the gun in his pants
05:35and then they was
05:36walking up,
05:37they had schema
05:37that's gone
05:38and I walked
05:39in front of them.
05:40He says he passed
05:41the two suspects
05:42as they were headed
05:43toward the apartment
05:44where Isaac was shot.
05:46Then I looked back,
05:48he had up
05:48and put the gun out.
05:50I was going to force me
05:52and then we were
05:53wha, wha, wha.
05:55Both of them
05:56had masks on.
05:58Did they have
05:59baseball caps on?
06:00I don't really know
06:01if they both had caps on.
06:02I only seen one
06:03of them had caps on.
06:04I don't know.
06:05I know this isn't
06:06everything you do
06:07every day, man,
06:08but I get it,
06:09but just remember
06:09as much as you can.
06:11Yes.
06:12Which one had the gun?
06:13They both of them
06:14had them.
06:15Was it like a pistol
06:16or was it like a rifle?
06:18It was a big gun.
06:19Clip.
06:21Gotcha.
06:22Is that all you know?
06:23Mm-hmm.
06:25All right.
06:27Down the hall,
06:28you heard the shots
06:29you just took off.
06:30You didn't see anybody
06:30who's walk off
06:31or anything?
06:32No.
06:32Warren wraps up
06:33with another witness.
06:35Okay.
06:36Then I'll get you.
06:37All right.
06:39But he doesn't get
06:40any new leads.
06:47None of the witnesses
06:48I spoke with
06:48actually saw the shooting.
06:50They did see the suspects
06:52as they approached the scene.
06:53Others saw the suspects
06:54that they were running away
06:55from the scene
06:55after the shooting.
06:57They were masked up
06:58and everybody said
06:58they came from the north
06:59and they ran back
07:00to the north.
07:01Here's the thing about it.
07:03Whoever went there
07:04to shoot him
07:04knew exactly
07:05where he would be.
07:08We'll get to mama
07:09here in a minute.
07:11Kennedy and Warren
07:12head in to speak
07:13with Isaac's mother.
07:17Is you all right?
07:18No.
07:19I know you're not,
07:19but it's kind of
07:20a stupid question,
07:21but I just want to make
07:22sure you can talk.
07:25Yeah.
07:25I'm really sorry
07:26you're going through this.
07:28How many times
07:29he got hurt?
07:30It looks like
07:31he was hit
07:31multiple times.
07:33He just couldn't make it
07:34in the house on time.
07:35No, he couldn't.
07:36I know my child
07:38is gone, man.
07:39He is.
07:40I'm sorry for that.
07:41Multiple times.
07:47I know you're hurting.
07:49We just want to get
07:50as much information
07:51as we can.
07:56You're the closest
07:57to Isaac
07:58and you knew
07:58what was going on
07:59in his life
08:00more than anybody.
08:01Yes.
08:02So that's kind of
08:02what we want to get at.
08:04Any beast
08:05that Isaac had
08:06with anybody.
08:07I want to know anybody.
08:09He got in a fight
08:10with somebody named
08:11Javion Washington.
08:14She says a month ago,
08:16Isaac got into a fight
08:17with a friend
08:18named Javion Washington.
08:21What happened
08:22during the fight?
08:22Well, my son
08:23had shanked him.
08:25She says during the fight,
08:27Isaac stabbed Javion
08:28with a knife.
08:30So why did it happen?
08:31It was something dumb.
08:32Patty.
08:33Patty stuck.
08:34He used to stay
08:35with me
08:35and I was at one month.
08:37We was helping him
08:38because he had
08:38nowhere else to go.
08:40I ain't seen him
08:40in a minute
08:41since he left.
08:42She says Javion
08:43left town
08:44after the fight
08:45with Isaac.
08:46Where's he from?
08:48He from Arkansas.
08:50And so since that
08:51is shanking,
08:52has Javion
08:53made any threats
08:54towards your son?
08:55He has, yes.
08:57So that one night,
08:59he made a breath
08:59and said he's going
09:00to come down here
09:00with some dudes too.
09:02Who's they?
09:04When was the last time
09:05that there was
09:06a threat sent
09:07that you know of
09:07to Isaac
09:08from Javion?
09:10In September.
09:12She says Javion
09:14made the threat
09:15a month ago.
09:16So it's been
09:17kind of quiet
09:18since then?
09:18Yes.
09:20So that's
09:21the only person
09:22you really know
09:22that he's really
09:23had a violent encounter
09:24with.
09:25and there's a lot
09:25of people
09:26beefing with Isaac.
09:27There was just
09:28a lot of beefing
09:29going on
09:29and I just wanted
09:30all to stop.
09:31Did Isaac ever
09:32call you and say
09:33man, I'm talking
09:34to somebody
09:35they're giving me
09:35problems?
09:37He told me today
09:37he got in two
09:39with some people
09:39out there
09:40in the sunset.
09:42She says Isaac
09:43called her this morning
09:44after arguing
09:45with some men
09:45at the same
09:46apartment complex.
09:48He said
09:49I need me
09:49a piece today.
09:51And he asked her
09:52to get him a gun.
09:53He kept on saying
09:54mama,
09:55y'all gonna have
09:55to plan for my
09:56funeral and all this.
10:11He said
10:13f***ing him
10:13got in two
10:14with some dudes
10:14out there
10:15in sunset.
10:17She says
10:17Isaac's friend
10:18the man he was
10:19staying with
10:19at the complex
10:20was there
10:21when Isaac
10:22got into a fight
10:22today.
10:23Did he say
10:24these guys
10:24come threaten
10:25to shoot him?
10:25Somebody was gonna
10:26come and shoot him.
10:32Hold on.
10:33Let's back up.
10:34So he's telling you
10:34that these guys
10:35are threatening
10:36him to shoot him
10:37today?
10:38Yes.
10:40Okay,
10:40that's big.
10:41Yeah.
10:42You know,
10:42that's huge.
10:43Yes.
10:44Did he say
10:44who it was?
10:46Who they were?
10:46Tell me who it was.
10:48Did he say
10:49it was over?
10:50No, he didn't.
10:51He didn't tell me that.
10:52We need to figure out
10:53what that's about.
10:54Yes.
10:55And f***ing
10:55should know about that,
10:56correct?
10:56Yes.
10:57She says Isaac's friend
10:59should know
10:59who he had a beef with.
11:02Is there anything else
11:03I haven't asked?
11:05I don't know
11:05anything else.
11:10I can't even,
11:10I don't,
11:11I just,
11:11I just see my,
11:13I just,
11:13I just see my child
11:15just laying there, man.
11:16No, I understand.
11:17I'm sorry
11:17you have to go through this.
11:21All right,
11:22sorry for your loss.
11:33I just have a patrol officer
11:34over here.
11:35Okay.
11:36Warren sent patrol officers
11:37back to the apartment complex
11:38to look for Isaac's friend.
11:41Hopefully that he'd come down
11:42and I'll shed some more light
11:44on what we need to know.
11:51An hour later,
11:53all right.
11:55Patrol finds Isaac's friend.
11:57We found some information
11:59that I wanted to ask you about.
12:01I know that Isaac
12:03had been at your house
12:04all day long.
12:05Yes.
12:06Had he been beefing
12:07with anybody
12:08while he was at your house
12:09that you know of?
12:11No.
12:13I'm going to be
12:14straight up with you.
12:15We talked to his mother.
12:16He told her
12:17that him
12:18and you
12:19got into it
12:19with a couple of guys
12:20in the complex
12:21and he needed a gun.
12:27Who are these guys
12:28that you supposedly,
12:29he's saying,
12:30you got into it with?
12:34You have to get more specific.
12:40How did you know them?
12:42Because I'm a street tattoo artist.
12:44I've tatted him back up
12:45back in the day.
12:46He just wanted to talk to me
12:48about getting some more tattoos.
12:51Okay.
12:52How did that get turned
12:53into the point
12:54to where Isaac's telling his mom
12:56that you guys got into it?
12:58I'm not sure.
13:01So did Isaac get into it
13:03with these guys?
13:04Isaac didn't get into it
13:05with anybody.
13:05Did he talk to them at all?
13:06He didn't talk to nobody.
13:08So nothing bad happened?
13:10Nothing bad happened.
13:11That would cause somebody
13:11he won't come back
13:12and shoot the place up?
13:13No.
13:16All right.
13:17So tell me what you do know
13:19about Isaac.
13:20Did he have any money?
13:21Was he selling dope?
13:22Was he doing anything like that?
13:24Isaac was trying to get a job.
13:25What kind of job is this?
13:27It's a resource one.
13:28All right.
13:29Has he been into it
13:30with anybody lately?
13:31He's been into it
13:32with one guy.
13:34I don't know his name.
13:36I just call him Jay.
13:39Has he said anything
13:40about this Jay person
13:42threatening him
13:42to hurt him or anything?
13:46Okay.
13:48I wish I knew more.
13:51All right, man.
13:51We'll get you out of here, okay?
13:56He didn't have any reason
13:57to lie to us
13:57because that was his friend.
13:59And I think if he knew something,
14:00he would tell us the truth.
14:02He said that the victim
14:03was feuding
14:04with a guy named Jay.
14:05When I spoke
14:06with the victim's mom,
14:07she said that he had been
14:08beefing with a guy
14:09named Javion
14:10about a month earlier.
14:12Now, it's highly likely
14:13that Jay and Javion
14:14are the same person.
14:17Kennedy looks up
14:18Javion Washington
14:19in the database.
14:21So that's him.
14:23He's got no record here
14:25other than getting
14:26a ticket for fireworks
14:28with my victim.
14:29Three months ago,
14:31Jayvion and Isaac
14:32were stopped by police
14:33on the 4th of July.
14:34Hold on.
14:35Let me look at this.
14:39This is a body cam
14:40from my officers
14:40on 4th of July.
14:45So there's my victim
14:46sitting right there.
14:47Have you ever talked
14:49to police court?
14:54Spell your first name.
14:57Okay.
14:58This is a guy
14:59they say he's into it with.
15:01On the 4th of July,
15:02it's obvious
15:03these two are friends.
15:04You know,
15:04their buddies
15:05are together.
15:07but Javion is a person
15:09of interest.
15:11We're going to come back
15:12in in the morning
15:13and Reggie and I
15:14are going to start
15:15looking for some video
15:16around there.
15:17If we can catch
15:18the suspects
15:18with those hats on,
15:19we've got a starting point.
15:21We've got a long ways
15:22to go on this one.
15:23It's not going to be
15:23an easy ride.
15:32The next day.
15:34We're going to look
15:34for a video
15:35at the complex
15:36where this murder happened.
15:38Kennedy and Warren
15:39circle back
15:39to the crime scene
15:40to see if any neighbors
15:41have doorbell cameras
15:42that captured video
15:43of the suspects.
15:45Here's the thing.
15:46You're not going to walk
15:47very far with masks on.
15:48Carrying a freaking rifle.
15:50I agree.
15:53There's a camera
15:54right there.
15:55That's a good camera, dude.
15:57Let's get out
15:58and look at this one
15:58and see if we knock
15:59on the door.
16:06Tulsa Police.
16:10Hey, how are you?
16:11Hey, I'm Detective Kennedy
16:12with Tulsa Police Homicide.
16:15I noticed you have a camera.
16:17Yeah, it doesn't work.
16:18It doesn't work at all?
16:20No.
16:21All right.
16:25I don't know.
16:26That might be one there.
16:27Is it?
16:29No, it's not.
16:36Then.

16:44So what do you know?
16:45You know something?
16:46I don't know
16:47what was said
16:48and it didn't happen.
17:00You want to come downtown?
17:02Follow us downtown.
17:02Follow us.
17:05It can only happen
17:06to Mark Kennedy.
17:08Well, this isn't nothing yet.
17:09I like that, though.
17:14At this time,
17:15I'll take anything.
17:17See, this is why you come out
17:18and do follow-ups, boys.
17:19You're right.
17:27All right.
17:29So tell me about
17:30everything you know.
17:33Jay is from Little Rock, Arkansas.
17:35Okay.
17:36One day, him and Jay
17:37got into a fight
17:38and Jay knocked out
17:39Isaac's tooth.
17:40Then Isaac seen him again
17:41and Isaac stabbed him
17:43in his back.
17:46He went to the hospital
17:47and then after that,
17:49when he got released,
17:49he had somebody
17:50drop him back to Arkansas.
17:53She called us, like,
17:55two weeks before
17:56this all happened.
17:57She says two weeks ago,
17:59she got a call
18:00from Javion's girlfriend.
18:02She called us
18:03letting us know
18:04that they're finna
18:04come down here
18:05and shoot him.
18:08Jay's coming up here
18:09to shoot Isaac.
18:11Yeah.

18:13come down here
18:13and they're finna

18:15in the back.
18:17And we tell her,
18:18we let Isaac's mama
18:19hear all this.
18:20She says they were
18:21with Isaac's mother
18:22at the time
18:23and put the call
18:24on speakerphone.
18:26So she called you
18:27a couple weeks ago
18:28and said that Jay's
18:29going to come up here
18:30and take care
18:30and shoot Isaac.
18:32And his mama
18:33didn't tell y'all that?
18:34No, she didn't say
18:35anything about you.
18:37She had a hard time
18:38last night.
18:38That's her only son.
18:39That was her only child.
18:41Did Jay ever get
18:41on the phone
18:42and say it?
18:43He didn't say it.
18:44Did she say
18:44if he was bringing
18:45anybody with him or?
18:47No.
18:48But I know he did.
18:50He's going to have
18:51somebody else do
18:51his dead work.
18:52He's kind of smart.
18:54And last night
18:55when we found out
18:55Isaac was dead,
18:57we caught her.
18:58They called
18:59Javion's girlfriend
19:00to ask about
19:01Isaac's murder.
19:02She was like,
19:03oh,

19:21mother lives.
19:24Do you know

19:27would hang out

19:29Yep.
19:30He used to hang
19:31out there with him.
19:32Okay,
19:32so he knew
19:33exactly where to go.
19:33I used to be friends.
19:35Right.
19:35Yes.
19:36Before the chaos.
19:37Before the chaos.
19:38Oh,
19:38and it's really over,
19:39b***h.
19:40She says
19:41the feud started
19:42because Isaac
19:43liked Javion's girlfriend.
19:45Okay.
19:46So it's over there.
19:47The girl more
19:47than there's anything else.
19:49Yeah,

19:59that lives down here.
20:01She says
20:01the mother
20:02of Javion's children
20:03lives in Tulsa.
20:04All right,
20:05is there anything else
20:05we haven't asked you,
20:06information that you
20:07think we need
20:08to know about it?
20:09No, sir.
20:10I told you
20:11everything I knew.
20:13Well, young ladies,
20:14I appreciate you
20:15coming down
20:15and giving us
20:15that information.
20:22You have two new messages.
20:25I just want to know
20:25what's going on with me.
20:27I'm just hoping
20:27I just let me know
20:28something.
20:30I don't know my son,
20:31please.
20:37Kennedy reaches out
20:38to Isaac's mother.
20:39Hello?
20:41Francine,
20:41Detective Kennedy,
20:42what can I do for you?
20:44I just want to know
20:45have y'all found out
20:46any information?
20:47So,
20:48Jay is our biggest
20:49person of interest
20:50right now,
20:50but I can't call him
20:51a suspect yet.
20:52Well,
20:53the girl should be
20:54the one also.
20:55She has something
20:56to do with it.
20:57She says Javion's
20:59girlfriend also made
21:00threats toward Isaac.
21:01How come you didn't
21:02mention to me last night?
21:06I know,
21:07and I get that,
21:09and I apologize.
21:10I, you know,
21:12sometimes forget
21:13the grief you're
21:13going through,
21:14and I apologize for that.
21:17So,
21:18I've got that
21:18information today,
21:19and we're working
21:21on that,
21:21but I want
21:22some more intel
21:24and some more information
21:25before I go at her
21:26because I don't want
21:27to burn that bridge
21:28before I have
21:29some more ammo
21:30to go at her, okay?
21:31Okay.
21:32But I am aware
21:33of her,
21:34and I want
21:35to get some things
21:36in place first
21:36before I play my hand.
21:38Okay.
21:39All right,
21:40well, God bless you.
21:41You take care,
21:41all right?
21:42All right.
21:43All right, bye.
21:46You know,
21:47sometimes we get
21:48so in-depth
21:49into these cases
21:50trying to solve them,
21:50we forget about
21:51the human aspect
21:52this and forget
21:53how they're hurting,
21:55and I cannot imagine
21:57what she's going through.
21:58I can't imagine
21:59having my kid killed,
22:01so it's hard
22:02for us to relate
22:03to that,
22:04but we have
22:05to keep it in mind,
22:05and sometimes
22:06I get so wrapped up
22:07in trying to solve it
22:08that we forget
22:09about that.
22:10Right now,
22:11Javion's
22:11our number one target.
22:25I would say right now,
22:26Javion's our number one
22:27person I'm interested in.
22:29We've just got to
22:30build a case.
22:38The next morning,
22:40Kennedy looks to see
22:41if Javion filed
22:42a police report
22:43after he was stabbed
22:44by Isaac.
22:46I'm looking for a stabbing.
22:48I don't see any stabbings
22:49or even assaults
22:51that match up to mine.
22:52We can look at their
22:53body cam
22:53and see kind of
22:54if it's...
22:5523, yeah,
22:56look at that.
22:59Kennedy locates
23:00the responding officer's
23:01body cam footage.
23:03Javion, what was
23:04your last name?
23:05Washington.
23:06Oh, Washington.
23:07He didn't know his name.
23:08He said,
23:08come here.
23:10What's up?
23:12Javion, you want
23:13to press charges?
23:16He did tell the officers,
23:17you don't want to
23:17press charges.
23:18That's probably why
23:18they didn't do a report.
23:19Probably, yeah.
23:21Isaac got his tooth
23:22knocked out by Javion,
23:25and Javion and I
23:25got stabbed by Isaac.
23:27I mean, the escalation
23:28definitely increased
23:30over a short period of time.
23:34But right now,
23:35we don't have anything
23:35to show that Javion
23:37was involved in the murder.
23:39if he is involved,
23:41I need to get some
23:42proof video,
23:43phone records,
23:44things like that
23:45that'll put him
23:45at the scene.
23:57In the first 48,
23:59Tulsa Homicide
24:00responded to the murder
24:01of Isaac Walker
24:03gunned down
24:03outside his friend's apartment,
24:05interviewed witnesses
24:06who said they saw
24:08two masked men
24:08with rifles
24:09approaching the apartment,
24:11and saw the same two men
24:13drop their hats
24:14as they fled the scene.
24:15Discovered Isaac
24:16was feuding
24:16with a former friend
24:17named Javion Washington,
24:19but haven't found
24:20any evidence
24:21tying Javion
24:22to the murder.
24:28Nine days later...
24:29We're going to start
24:30kind of ruffling
24:31some feathers.
24:32We're going to go
24:33try to find
24:34baby mama
24:35of Javion Washington,
24:37and then we're going
24:39to go to
24:39the current girlfriend.
24:41Need to talk to him.
24:42Here we go.
24:44While Detective Max Ryden
24:46and Sergeant Jeremy Stiles
24:47look for the mother
24:48of Javion's child,
24:50Kennedy and Detective
24:51John Brown
24:52head out to an address
24:53for Javion's girlfriend.
24:56Right here.
25:09Hey, how's it going, man?
25:11A family member
25:12of the girlfriend
25:12answers the door.
25:14What's up, dog?
25:16Yeah.
25:17Where's your boyfriend at?
25:18You jerk?
25:19Yeah.
25:19That's my team.
25:20You're supposed to go
25:21to Arkansas.
25:23How long ago was that?
25:25Well, it's Isaac.
25:26You're a kid.
25:27So you know Isaac?
25:29Yeah.
25:29He's got back here.
25:31This guy's
25:31a person of interest
25:32in this.
25:33Was he back here
25:34that day
25:35that that happened?
25:36Well, he came.
25:43He says Javion showed up
25:45at his house
25:45the day of the murder
25:46with another man
25:48he'd never seen.
25:49The other guy
25:50go by anything?
25:51I don't know.
25:52I ain't ever seen him.
25:53He says he never got
25:54the other man's name.
25:56They have caps on
25:57or anything?
25:58Yeah.
25:59Kennedy shows him
26:00photos of the hats
26:01from the crime scene.
26:04Yeah.
26:05Who's wearing that?
26:10Has she been staying
26:11here since he's left?
26:13He says the girlfriend
26:14may be staying
26:15with another family member.
26:17Hey, appreciate you, man.
26:18Thanks for being
26:19straight up with me.
26:26Javion was here
26:27the day that Isaac died.
26:30He said they showed up
26:31his place around
26:32three-ish,
26:33so I think we need
26:33to pull video
26:34from, like, noon
26:34to, like, 4 or 5 in here.
26:36The team will work
26:37on getting video
26:38from the apartment complex.
26:40So, that's good stuff
26:42right there.
26:42We need to follow up
26:43on that.
26:45Detectives head
26:45to the other address
26:46where the girlfriend
26:47may be staying.
26:49That's it right there,
26:50isn't it?
27:01Tulsa police.
27:04Hey, how are you?
27:05Hello.
27:06Good.
27:06I'm Detective Kennedy,
27:08Detective Brown,
27:09with Tulsa police.
27:10Can we talk to you for a minute?
27:11Yeah, sure.
27:12Is here?
27:14Mm-mm.
27:14You know where
27:15she's at?
27:16I think she went
27:17to Arkansas.
27:18She went to Arkansas
27:19with who?
27:20Her boyfriend.
27:22She says Javion,
27:23his girlfriend,
27:24and another man
27:25she didn't know,
27:26stayed at her house
27:27the night of the murder,
27:28then left for Arkansas
27:30the next day.
27:31You know what
27:32how a car is driving?
27:33It was a white car
27:34with a pig tag on it.
27:44Well,
27:45that was pretty informational.
27:50Detective Ryden
27:51calls in with an update.
27:53The mother of Javion's
27:55child wasn't home.
27:57All right,
27:58we'll see you downtown.
28:00We got good information
28:02about the time left
28:03of them being here
28:04and when they left.
28:06He thinks white car
28:07with four doors,
28:09not real big,
28:11and it had a paper tag on it.
28:21One week later...
28:23So,
28:24do we have a phone number?
28:25Really?
28:25Yeah.
28:26The team
28:27finally tracked down
28:28the mother of Javion's
28:29child
28:30and got his phone number.
28:31So, I'm going to do
28:32a warrant.
28:33We're going to get
28:34phone records
28:35from Javion.
28:36Hopefully,
28:37that phone will track
28:38to the area
28:39of the crime scene
28:40at the time
28:41of the shooting.
28:4925 days
28:49after Isaac's murder.
28:52Let's see.
28:54Javion's phone records
28:55are in.
28:58Oh, my God.
29:01What do you got in there?
29:02My murder went out
29:03at 1741,
29:04and there is
29:05where his phone's at.
29:07I got him
29:07within a few meters
29:09from where it happened.
29:23I've got his phone
29:25at the time
29:25of the murder
29:26right there.
29:28We need to get
29:29a warrant for him.
29:30He's going to get
29:31a DNA swab.
29:37My name is
29:38Detective Mark Kennedy
29:38with the Tulsa Police
29:39Homicide Unit.
29:40Yes, sir.
29:42Kennedy reaches out
29:42to homicide detectives
29:44in Little Rock, Arkansas.
29:45I'm going to need
29:46to get a DNA swab
29:47from him
29:48because they left a hat
29:49when they took off
29:50running
29:50and they came
29:50off their heads.
29:52Yes, sir.
29:52Little Rock PD
29:53will start searching
29:54for Javion.
29:55Okay, thank you.
29:56Appreciate it.
29:58All right, you take care.
30:00So, I've got
30:00a DNA warrant
30:01being served
30:03in Arkansas
30:03at some point
30:04when they find him.
30:05So, when they do that,
30:06I'm going to go down
30:06to Arkansas,
30:07talk to him,
30:08see if I can lock him
30:09into a store.
30:16One week later...
30:17So, I got with
30:19Little Rock, Arkansas,
30:20Detective Stephen Henry
30:22to get Javion's DNA.
30:26Detectives in Little Rock
30:27track down Javion
30:28at a relative's house
30:29and serve the warrant
30:30for his DNA.
30:32Now that we have his DNA,
30:33we want to get a Russian
30:34map with our lab
30:35to compare it to that.
30:37Continue straight on.
30:38So, we're going to
30:39collect the DNA
30:40from Detective Henry
30:42and we're going to see
30:42if we can make contact
30:43with Javion Washington
30:45and see if he wants
30:46to talk to us.
30:51Four hours away
30:52in Little Rock, Arkansas.
30:54Hey, Stephen,
30:55Mark Kennedy.
30:56Nice to meet you.
30:56John Brown.
30:57Nice to meet you.
30:59Is that the DNA
31:00right there?
31:00Yes.
31:01Buckle swabs?
31:02Buckle swabs.
31:03Nice.
31:04We said that night
31:04he was up here with us.
31:05Shaking like a breeze.
31:10So, we have an idea
31:11where he could be?
31:12Yes.
31:13Possibly.
31:14Okay.
31:15Henry believes Javion
31:17may be staying
31:17with the relative
31:18who brought him
31:19in for the DNA swab.
31:20So, we're going to
31:21go try to find him
31:22and talk to him.
31:23Sound like a plane,
31:24sugar, please?
31:26We are following
31:27these detectives
31:27just trying to make
31:28contact with Javion Washington.
31:31They were driving
31:32a little white four-door
31:33with a paper tag in it.
31:35I definitely want to
31:36see if it's here.
31:44I'm going to hit
31:45a jackpot right here.
31:46Interesting.
31:47So, this might be the car.
31:51Who's it registered to?
31:53Order information
31:53shows it's registered
31:54to quality cash cards.
31:56Well, we can call them.
31:57Okay, thank you.
31:59It takes a picture
32:00of his car.
32:03You can go out there
32:03and check.
32:14No one answers.
32:19So, we'll go to the office.
32:20Maybe they can tell us
32:21a little bit?
32:23Detectives turn
32:24to the apartment manager.
32:25How are you?
32:27This is the guy
32:28I'm looking for.
32:30Yes.
32:31She says she's seen
32:32Javion within the last week.
32:34Okay.
32:36Then...
32:37Hey.
32:39Javion's relative
32:40reaches out.
32:40She got an alert
32:41from her doorbell cam
32:42and recognized
32:44Detective Henry
32:44who had collected
32:45Javion's DNA.
32:47So, is he home?
32:49No, he's not home.
32:50Where's he at?
32:51I think he's with my dad
32:52in Hot Springs.
32:55I'll introduce myself.
32:57My name is Detective Mark Kennedy
32:58with Tulsa Police, okay?
33:00Yes, sir.
33:01So, let me ask you this.
33:03How long have you guys
33:04had the white Camry?
33:05Maybe right at a month.
33:06Okay.
33:07Who drives that?
33:08I drive it sometimes.
33:10Javion drives it.
33:11Okay.
33:12Well, I need to talk
33:13to Javion
33:15about a case
33:15I'm working
33:16back in Tulsa.
33:18We gave his DNA
33:20or whatever.
33:20Right.
33:21We don't know
33:22what's going on.
33:23I need to talk to him.
33:25I wanted to get
33:26Javion's side of the story
33:27and see if he was
33:29even in Tulsa
33:29the day that this
33:30case I'm working
33:32occurred.
33:33We don't even know
33:34what day
33:35anything about anything.
33:37Well, I mean,
33:38his name's been brought up.
33:40Well, I really
33:41am not going to get
33:42into that a whole lot
33:42until we talk.
33:44I just want to have
33:44a discussion, okay?
33:48I'm going to see
33:49what I can do.
33:52All right.
33:53Well, we know
33:54the car's there.
33:55We'll see if she calls back.
33:58I really appreciate
33:59all you guys' help.
34:03Two days later,
34:05still with no word
34:06from Javion,
34:09his girlfriend shows up
34:10after hearing detectives
34:12were looking for her.
34:14All right.
34:15My name's
34:16Detective Kennedy
34:16with Tulsa Police.
34:18I'm a homicide detective.
34:19This is Detective
34:20Reggie Warren.
34:21I kind of got a feeling
34:22you probably know
34:23what we're here about.
34:24Yes.
34:25What do you think
34:25we're here about?
34:26About a death
34:27that occurred,
34:27I think, last month.
34:29I think his name
34:30is Isaac.
34:32I've seen him
34:32a couple times.
34:33Did you know
34:33he got murdered?
34:36Not until my auntie
34:37called me and told me.
34:40Where were you at
34:41whenever she called you?
34:42I was in Arkansas.
34:44We're at Arkansas.
34:45I was with my friend.
34:46Who's your friend?
34:47Jay.
34:49Okay, so you know
34:51Isaac soon.
34:52I didn't really know him.
34:52I've seen him
34:53a couple times.
34:54Everybody knows
34:55you all know each other.
34:56You.
34:56Hold on.
34:57Just let me finish
34:58before you start
34:58interrupting me
34:59because I want to tell
35:00you what I found out.
35:02Okay, without even
35:03talking to you.
35:04You and Isaac
35:06and Jay
35:07and everybody
35:07was cool.
35:08At some point
35:09that Isaac and Jay
35:10become uncool,
35:11okay,
35:12and they got into a fight.
35:14Isaac stabbed Jay.
35:16I know he went
35:17to the hospital
35:17and he went back
35:19to Little Rock
35:19after that, didn't he?
35:20The same day, yes.
35:24When did Jay
35:25come to Tulsa?
35:27They came to Tulsa
35:28on the 14th.
35:29She says the day
35:30Isaac was murdered,
35:32Jayvion came back
35:33to Tulsa with a friend.
35:34Who's his friend?
35:36I don't know his friend.
35:37And we were
35:38at my auntie's house
35:39the whole day.
35:43Here's the thing.
35:44You seem like
35:45an intelligent girl
35:46and I don't want you
35:47to screw your life up
35:48because this is
35:49a murder investigation
35:50and I know
35:51that Jayvion
35:53is the one
35:53that killed Isaac.
35:55Okay, let me tell you.
35:57You'd have to know
35:58something about that
35:58and I'm going to tell you
35:59why because you just
36:00locked yourself
36:01into a story
36:02about these young men
36:03being with you
36:04the whole time
36:04at your auntie's house.
36:06I got Jayvion's phone number
36:08and guess what?
36:09I can put his phone
36:11at Sunset Plaza.
36:25I don't know
36:26nothing about that.
36:27God didn't know about that
36:28because you said
36:28they were with you
36:29the whole time.
36:30I don't know
36:30anything about that.
36:33Okay.
36:34Guess what else I got?
36:36I really don't care.
36:37No, you probably need to.
36:39I'm going to show you
36:39something.
36:41See if you recognize this.
36:45No, I do not.
36:46You don't recognize that?
36:48No, I do not.
36:48You recognize that?
36:49The two hats
36:50that they were wearing
36:51that day?
36:51You don't recognize those?
36:53Sure you don't.
36:55I don't.
36:59All right.
36:59Well, I can see
37:00we're going to not
37:01get anywhere with you.
37:02So here's what
37:03I'm going to tell you.
37:04I've got enough
37:05probable cause
37:06at this point
37:06that Javion killed Isaac.
37:09And you know that
37:10and I know that
37:11and you don't want
37:11to talk about that.
37:12Well, I don't know
37:12what you're talking about.
37:13Oh, yeah, you do.
37:15Ma'am, you know,
37:16I've been doing this
37:16for a long time
37:17and I don't have
37:17to know somebody
37:18very well to know
37:19when they're lying to me.
37:21Well, I'm telling you
37:22I'm not lying.
37:22I'm done.
37:24And you're welcome
37:25to get out of here.
37:27You're welcome.
37:31I was losing my patience.
37:32I was going to get
37:33ugly there
37:34if I didn't get out
37:35of there with her
37:35and she wasn't going
37:36to come off of it.
37:38It doesn't matter
37:39if people are going
37:40to talk to us or not.
37:41We're going to try
37:42to find things
37:43that we don't need
37:44witnesses for,
37:45you know,
37:45such as videos,
37:46such as DNA.
37:48Sometimes we have
37:49to do it the hard way.
37:54The next day.
37:59Oh, here it is.
38:00The team gets video
38:01from the apartment complex
38:03where Javion's girlfriend
38:04was staying
38:04on the day
38:05of the murder.
38:07Oh, there it is.
38:09So the car's backing up
38:10right there.
38:11You can see it.
38:13You can even see
38:14the paper tag.
38:16If I could just catch
38:17one of the knuckleheads
38:18with that freaking hat on,
38:21but you can't tell
38:22who's in there.
38:26And then it leaves
38:27about 518.
38:31It's about a seven
38:32or eight-minute drive
38:33to the crime scene.
38:36Kennedy turns
38:37to surveillance video
38:38the team recovered
38:39from a business
38:40next to the crime scene.
38:44Yeah, about 537.
38:47Seven minutes
38:48before the 911 call,
38:49the same white Camry
38:51pulls into the complex.
38:53Same front end,
38:55same type of vehicle,
38:56same headlights.
38:58So, yeah,
38:58we've got a vehicle
39:00that matches
39:00the description
39:01of Javion Washington
39:03entering the crime scene
39:05at near the time
39:07of the murder.
39:09Looking at the totality
39:11of this whole investigation,
39:12we have motive,
39:13we have means,
39:15and we have opportunity.
39:18Javion and Isaac
39:19were obviously feuding.
39:22And I got Javion's cell phone
39:25hitting off a tower
39:26in direct direction
39:28of where the crime occurred
39:31and then the vehicle
39:33in that complex
39:34at the same time.
39:36We have plenty enough
39:37for a first-degree murder charge
39:38on Javion Washington.
39:41My belief is
39:42he's in Little Rock, Arkansas.
39:44I've contacted Detective Henry
39:47with the homicide unit there.
39:49They're on it.
39:50We'll put his face
39:52on the news.
39:53We'll see if we can get him
39:54to either give himself up
39:57or be apprehended.
40:01New at 9,
40:03detectives believe
40:03a Tulsa murder suspect
40:05may be in Arkansas.
40:07Now, police in Little Rock, Arkansas
40:08posted this digital
40:10wanted poster
40:11of Washington today.
40:18Three months
40:19after Isaac was murdered.
40:21We had Little Rock PD
40:22trying to find Javion Washington.
40:25They put out media release
40:27that he was wanted
40:28for a murder in Tulsa.
40:30I guess it was enough pressure
40:31on him that he decided
40:32to come turn himself
40:33into the Tulsa County Jail.
40:35Tried to go talk to him,
40:37but he requested an attorney.
40:39So he's been booked in
40:40on one count of first-degree murder.
40:49Kennedy calls Isaac's mother.
40:51Hello?
40:52Hey, it's Detective Kennedy.
40:53I just want to let you know
40:55that Javion is in custody.
40:59You're very welcome.
41:00He's in the Tulsa County Jail
41:01right now.
41:04So now we just start
41:06the court process.
41:07It's going to be a lengthy time,
41:09so just get prepared.
41:10It doesn't happen overnight.
41:11Okay.
41:12All right?
41:13All right.
41:14We'll take care.
41:17I think she's just happy
41:18he's in custody.
41:20Obviously, there's a second person.
41:21We would love to know
41:22who that is,
41:23so I'll keep trying
41:24to work on that
41:25and figure out
41:25who that could be.
41:56Guys that used to be friends,
41:59one's dead
41:59at the hands of the other.
42:02It's sad.
42:03It's unnecessary.
42:04It could have easily been avoided
42:07by just walking away
42:08or just being men
42:10and sitting there
42:10talking about it.
42:13The younger generation,
42:14they don't seem to have
42:16those coping skills.
42:18If it's such a situation
42:19that you think
42:20that violence could occur,
42:22call the police.
42:23Have us come out there.
42:24You know,
42:26we have officers
42:27that are highly trained
42:28to resolve
42:29high-stress situations.
42:32There's nothing worth
42:33taking another life.
42:35We'll be right back to you guys.
42:38We'll be right back to you guys.
42:39We'll be right back to you guys.
42:39We'll be right back to you guys.
42:40We'll be right back to you guys.
42:40We'll be right back to you guys.
42:42We'll be right back to you guys.
42:43You
