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.
00:19At an apartment complex on Tulsa's south side.
00:25911, do you need police, fire, or medical?
00:28Oh, police.
00:30I'm calling the report gunfire.
00:32About eight or nine shots were fired right in front of my apartment.
00:36There were some people out here arguing, and then, uh, we heard the shots.
00:42Did you see what they looked like?
00:44No.
00:45They laid my window face. You could see the sparks from the gun.
00:50I'll let the officers know.
00:53Police and EMS race to the scene and find a man lying in some bushes.
01:02Shot dead.
01:12For homicide detectives, their chance of solving a murder is cut in half if they don't get a lead within
01:19the first 48 hours.
01:35Yeah.
01:36Hey, Max.
01:36How's it going, man?
01:38Detective Max Ridin will lead the investigation.
01:41Do you mind showing me the body?
01:43Yeah.
01:48So he's laying over here next to some bushes.
01:52Looks like he died right there.
01:55So we got a name for our victim?
01:58For the Jenkins.
02:0132-year-old Brandon Jenkins was born and raised in Jenks, Oklahoma.
02:07He attended Jenks High School and went on to work in construction.
02:11Brandon leaves behind his mother, brother, and sister.
02:19He's got a gunshot wound to the chest.
02:22Brandon was shot once in the upper torso.
02:26You can see where he tried to push open the door right there with the blood on the door.
02:31Blood on that, dripping for a little bit.
02:35Look empty. Nobody lives here.
02:37The first floor apartment is unoccupied.
02:41Okay.
02:43Walk me through this.
02:46Following the bloodshed.
02:49When he was shot, he fell down at some point right in the area.
02:54Bleeding pretty heavily.
02:56The team discovers a trail of blood that leads from the parking lot.
03:00Gets back up.
03:02There's a pump right here.
03:03Like, he steadied himself.
03:06Start to head this way.
03:07To the door of the apartment, near where Brandon was found.
03:14Looks like he was trying to get away and just didn't make it.
03:19Did we find any casings in this area?
03:22New.
03:23Hmm.
03:24But there's casings over here.
03:26Okay.
03:27In the parking lot, 30 feet from Brandon's body.
03:30So there's casings here.
03:32Bam, bam, bam, bam, bam from this part.
03:35The team recovers four .32 caliber shell casings.
03:39And then ran down probably 30 more feet and shot again.
03:43And four more, 60 feet from where Brandon was found.
03:48I got shell casings.
03:49That's about it.
03:50Not a lot else.
03:51It's really early in the game, but we'll go try to find some witnesses.
04:04One hour in.
04:07Post police.
04:08Hey.
04:08Can I come in and talk to you?
04:09Yeah.
04:09Okay.
04:10The team canvases the apartment complex.
04:14Okay, thank you.
04:19This lady says basically she hears disturbance coming from that apartment before the shots.
04:26A neighbor heard people arguing outside the apartment upstairs from where Brandon was found.
04:32Shortly after that, they hear bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, coming from here.
04:36They look out their window and then they see the muzzle flashes where those other casings would have come from.
04:40And they said they hear bam, bam, bam, bam, bam.
04:44And I go, do you know who lives it?
04:45And she said a black female.
04:47And then a white girl, she said the lesbians.
04:52They say that there's two black females that live by the office of lesbians.
04:56And they said these two hang out in that apartment by the office.
05:02Ryden's witness said the women that live above the crime scene are good friends with a couple who live near
05:07the office.
05:09I just talked to a witness who just got in for a moment.
05:11Detective Chase Calhoun spoke to the 911 caller.
05:16And she said the dead guy, he goes over there tonight, they're fist fighting, there's a disturbance.
05:20Mm-hmm.
05:22She said that the white girl, she kind of asked, if you will, says, I'm going to go get my
05:26gun.
05:28Goes into the apartment, comes out, she shoots him, and then take off.
05:34So basically, everybody says the top part was the problem.
05:37So I'm going to go knock on that.
05:52False, please.
06:03Nobody's angry.
06:07We need to do a search for one in that apartment.
06:09They may have threw the gun back in there before they left.
06:12Yeah.
06:14We need to secure the upstairs apartment, because our shooter came from there.
06:18So if a white girl and a black girl show up while we're securing it, grab them.
06:22And when the management opens up, I should be able to find them with the descriptions I got.
06:28Okay.
06:34While Detective Calhoun works on the search warrant...
06:37Is this the manager?
06:38Yeah.
06:39...the manager of the complex arrives.
06:42Why don't you sit in my car?
06:43Okay.
06:44Okay.
06:50The upstairs apartment has a lot to do with this.
06:53Who lives there?
06:56That...
06:56She gives him the name of the woman who rents the upstairs apartment.
07:00Okay.
07:01So...
07:02Her phone number?
07:03918.
07:04And her phone number.
07:06Okay.
07:07And then who lived there with her?
07:10It was supposed to be her and her daughter.
07:15Let me, uh...
07:18Ryden calls the woman who rents the upstairs apartment.
07:22Hello?
07:23This is Detective Ryden with Tulsa Police Department.
07:26The reason I'm calling is a murder happened last night.
07:30I have a dead body basically in front of your apartment down below.
07:46I saw that your daughter lives out there.
07:48Is that correct?
07:49Yes.
07:51Because here's what I'm guessing.
07:52There's a very high likelihood that your daughter's a witness because it's your apartment.
07:56So, I was hoping maybe I can ask her, what happened?
08:02That would be great.
08:06She gives Ryden her daughter's phone number and name.
08:10Okay.
08:11Is she a lesbian?
08:13Yeah.
08:14Does she have a white girlfriend?
08:16Yeah.
08:17She gives him the name of her daughter's girlfriend.
08:21I'm going to break it down to you so you're on board.
08:25I believe your daughter and her are people I need to talk to.
08:29So, I'm going to try to call her, but there's a good chance she's not going to talk to me
08:33without Mom saying, hey, you need to call that detective right away
08:36because if I have to find her, it makes her look in a lot worse light.
08:41Okay.
08:41Okay.
08:42I'm going to be honest.
08:43I have to get a search warrant to go in your apartment
08:45because I've been told that this all started at the apartment.
08:52If you were in Tulsa, I'd just have you come in here and let me in,
08:55but since you're in Kansas City, that...
08:56Yeah.
08:57Okay.
08:59Bye-bye.
09:01Give me one second here.
09:03Sure.
09:03Next in a row.
09:05Ryden calls the daughter.
09:08Oh, don't tell me she turned off her phone.
09:10But she doesn't pick up.
09:13Hi.
09:14Hi.
09:15You kind of heard everything.
09:16Do you know two black females that live by the office?
09:19You seen them?
09:20No.
09:22Would maintenance them know?
09:24They might know.
09:25They usually see a lot more.
09:27Right, yeah.
09:27I'm sorry.
09:29It's on you right now.
09:30Okay.
09:31Thank you, ma'am.
09:35So we're going to head back to the office
09:36and I see how Chase is doing with that search warrant.
09:39Don't know where the suspects are at,
09:40but we'd like to get in that apartment as soon as possible
09:42since they might be in there.
09:56As Dee breaks...
09:57We're going back to the crime scene.
10:00We've got a search warrant for the suspect's apartment
10:03right above where Brandon's body was found.
10:07We're going to be looking for evidence, gun,
10:09any bloody clothes, anything like that.
10:11And then hopefully we'll have enough.
10:13We'll start the hunt for the suspect.
10:20Hey, did they give you a key?
10:27Go in there and make sure they're not there.
10:29And maybe they just know we've been out here all the time
10:31and we've got to be safe.
10:41Tulsa, please.
10:42Search warrant.
10:46Tulsa, please.
10:47Search warrant.
10:48Search warrant.
11:20No one's in there, so now we're going to search for evidence.
11:23Hopefully we'll find a gun or something.
11:25Where would they have kept their gun?
11:27The team scours the apartment.
11:31Hoping beyond hope that maybe there'd be a magazine,
11:34a box of ammunition.
11:36Something.
11:37Something.
11:4130 minutes later.
11:43What's going to shake that?
11:46Nothing.
11:47No gun or nothing like that.
11:50I've got warrants to sit on this apartment.
11:52Yeah.
11:53The fugitive warrants unit will keep eyes on the apartment
11:56in case the suspects return.
11:59I'm going to go find the two black lesbians
12:00that live in a complex by the office.
12:04Supposedly the suspects might be friends of theirs,
12:06so maybe the suspect went over there afterwards
12:08where they can tell me where they're at.
12:16Are they maintenance?
12:18They're maintenance?
12:20Here's the deal.
12:21I have a witness saying that there's two black females
12:23that are also lesbians that live over here somewhere
12:27that are both black.
12:29Do you know who they would be?
12:31Yeah, absolutely.
12:32I know exactly what you're talking about.
12:33I've seen over here before.
12:35He points out the women's apartment.
12:38Okay.
12:39I got a black girl and a white girl
12:41that live in that upstairs apartment.
12:43Supposedly they stay there
12:44when the real owner is out of town.
12:46Yes.
12:47You think that they went there?
12:49Ryden asks him
12:50if the women that live above the crime scene
12:52could be hiding out with the women
12:54who live near the office.
12:56I think that if anybody shot somebody,
12:58they wouldn't stay on the same property where they shot somebody.
13:00You never know.
13:01You're correct.
13:02Trust me.
13:02We don't catch the smart ones.
13:05Thanks.
13:06Have a good day.
13:15Call us, please.
13:21We're homicide detectives.
13:23Is this your place?
13:26She says the women that live in the apartment
13:28are not home.
13:30What's your name?
13:32But identifies herself as the black female
13:34that lives upstairs from the crime scene.
13:37What's your name?
13:38Along with her sister.
13:40Sister?
13:41Yeah.
13:42Is there in there?
13:44Ryden asks her if her girlfriend,
13:45the alleged shooter, is there.
13:49What's your name?
13:52Okay.
13:53So, this is a murder investigation.
13:56There's a dead guy underneath your apartment.
14:00I think you know who got killed.
14:05I don't want you or your sister
14:07to be in trouble for what other people do.
14:10But I know for a fact
14:11that you guys know what happened.
14:14And I'm not going to talk about it
14:15in the middle of the courtyard.
14:16Okay.
14:18And I need you to come down, too,
14:19because we'll work through it.
14:21Okay.
14:22Both sisters agree to talk at homicide.
14:25We'll have a chat
14:26in a more air-conditioned environment.
14:36Do you think your sister
14:37is going to be honest with us?
14:39Mm-hmm.
14:40Sergeant Brandon Watkins
14:41transports the sister of the woman
14:43who lives upstairs from the crime scene.
14:46I'm not going to go back to prison
14:48for somebody else's
14:50and I just got out of prison
14:51for somebody else's.
14:52There you go.
14:53You know what I'm saying?
14:54So, I'm not,
14:55and I don't want my sister
14:55to go to prison either.
14:56Nope.
14:57She didn't do anything.
14:58Yeah.
15:00The situation that happened over here
15:02is crazy.
15:03She says she was at her sister's apartment
15:05when Brandon was killed.
15:08This is what, um, I know.
15:11All of a sudden,
15:12somebody just comes up
15:14and starts shooting,
15:16and we went in.
15:18Well, I mean, I, I, I,
15:21I didn't, I didn't see,
15:22I didn't see who it was,
15:24but I know.
15:25You know who it was?
15:27Shorty.
15:28She's my sister's friend.
15:31Shorty?
15:31Mm-hmm.
15:33That's like saying
15:33I know him by Loke.
15:35Everybody's nickname is Shorty.
15:37What does Shorty look like?
15:39Um, nurse-ended,
15:40I want to say, like, five, five,
15:42and she was pretty average
15:46and has the most common nickname
15:48of all time.
15:50Yeah.
15:52They call it Shorty
15:53and they call it K.
15:55K.
15:55K.
15:56Okay.
15:57So, I'm thinking
15:58that her real name
15:59starts with K.
16:00That would be,
16:00that would be a guess.
16:02Right.
16:02Yeah.
16:04You're making the right call
16:05and being honest
16:06because, obviously,
16:07it's real serious.
16:09If we find a picture of K,
16:11you can ID her.
16:13Yeah.
16:24I'll see her.
16:26K.
16:26I'm going to try
16:28to find out who that is.
16:30Right and runs the nickname
16:31K in the database.
16:32And how about Shorty?
16:38Okay.
16:40Here we go.
16:44Okay, Rona McNack.
16:59I think this is the girl
17:01you're looking for.
17:0332-year-old K.
17:04Rona McNack
17:05is a mother of four.
17:07She has an outstanding warrant
17:08for a traffic violation.
17:11I think we know
17:12who it is.
17:13K is a black girl.
17:16Chase talked to
17:17the 911 caller
17:17at the crime scene
17:18and I got told
17:20the suspect
17:21was a white female.
17:22So, all this time
17:23we've been looking
17:23for a white female.
17:25Yeah.
17:33This is Detective Ryden.
17:34Ryden calls
17:35the 911 caller
17:36who Calhoun spoke to
17:38at the crime scene.
17:39I got a couple questions.
17:41I know that you talked
17:43to my partner,
17:43Detective Calhoun,
17:44this morning
17:46and a girl
17:47was brought up
17:48that's a white female.
17:50Mm-hmm.
17:51Do you remember
17:53how you got
17:54that information
17:55that a white girl
17:56might be involved?
17:58All the guys
17:58supposed to see
17:59really...
18:00She now admits
18:00she's not sure
18:01the shooter
18:02was a white female
18:03and that it was
18:04just a rumor
18:05she heard
18:05from other neighbors.
18:07I don't see
18:08people,
18:09so I find out
18:10for just some
18:11people talking
18:12and stuff now.
18:15Well,
18:16I appreciate you
18:16talking to me.
18:17If I have any
18:18follow-up questions,
18:19I might call
18:19this number, okay?
18:20Okay, yeah.
18:21Bye-bye.
18:25The white girl
18:25is a bad lead.
18:27That was hearsay
18:28because that was
18:29a third hand.
18:31Sometimes we chase
18:31down leads
18:32that end up
18:32being dead ends,
18:33but just part
18:35of the investigation
18:36and you don't lose
18:36any sleep over
18:37falling on a lead
18:38that just didn't work out.
18:40So,

19:11She says last night
19:13she was at her
19:13sister's apartment
19:14above the crime scene.
19:15My sister was talking
19:17about meeting up
19:18with Kay.
19:20And who's Kay?
19:22It's her friend.
19:23Do you know
19:24this girl's name?
19:25I don't know
19:26how to pronounce it.
19:27I just call her Kay.
19:28Okay.
19:30So,
19:30is this Kay?
19:32Mm-hmm.

20:39Is she yelling

21:07But it was actually
21:08a woman that looks
21:08like Kay
21:09who had taken it.
21:11He's standing down there
21:12and he's,
21:13you know,
21:14explaining himself.
21:16Somebody comes up
21:17from, like,
21:17a little bush
21:18right there.
21:19Does this person
21:20sneak up behind him?
21:22I'm looking
21:23out the back
21:24and he's looking
21:25up right there.
21:26She says Brandon
21:27was standing
21:28under her sister's
21:29balcony
21:29with his back
21:30to the parking lot.
21:31Does he even
21:32know they're there?
21:35How close
21:36is the person
21:39to Brandon?
21:40A couple steps
21:41into the street.
21:44Did they say anything?
21:47The gunshots
21:48started going out.
21:50As soon as I heard
21:50the first one,
21:51I, like,
21:52fell to the ground
21:52and my grandma
21:54and sister,
21:54we kind of
21:55fall into the apartment.
21:57When I heard
21:58the gunshots
21:59stopped,
21:59I would look
22:00up the window
22:01and he's like,
22:01help, help.
22:02I'm like,
22:02oh my God.
22:04And I'm like,
22:05he's it.
22:18How many gunshots
22:20did you hear?
22:21Probably, like,
22:22four and four.
22:29The person
22:30that you saw,
22:31it looked like
22:32it was her body
22:33frame.
22:34Like,
22:34it had on all black
22:35and,
22:36you know,
22:38she says the shooter
22:39had a hoodie
22:40closed tightly
22:40around their face.
22:42Like a South Park
22:43wherever you
22:43do it.
22:45Okay.
22:46Who do you think
22:47that person is now
22:48after you've had,
22:49okay,
22:51how confident
22:51are you in that?
22:54Very.
22:56Where does she live?
23:01She says
23:02Kay lives
23:02in an apartment
23:03complex
23:03a block
23:04from the crime
23:05scene.
23:06Okay.
23:07So from the time
23:08that you see
23:09Kay leave
23:11until the time
23:12that
23:13Brandon gets
23:14shot,
23:15would she have
23:16had time
23:16to go home
23:17and return?
23:19Yeah.
23:21Okay.
23:22Follow me.
23:23Okay.
23:24I'm going to
23:24switch places
23:25with you
23:25and your sister.
23:32Okay.
23:37I'm going to
23:37first get into
23:38just some basic
23:39background
23:40of Brandon Jenkins.
23:43How long
23:43have you known
23:44Brandon?
23:45Like,
23:45one,
23:45two years now.
23:46Okay.
23:47Tell me about
23:48you and Brandon's
23:49relationship.
23:56She says
23:57she dated
23:57Brandon
23:58before she
23:59met her
23:59girlfriend.
24:00Did you guys
24:01like each other?
24:02Very good.
24:05Okay.
24:05Well,
24:05now we're
24:06going to
24:06go into
24:06a timeline
24:06from yesterday
24:07until the time
24:08we met
24:09today.
24:11Yesterday morning,
24:12I was kind of
24:12late in my home.
24:14And at some
24:15point,
24:15is someone
24:16supposed to
24:16come pick you
24:16up and give
24:17you a ride?
24:17Yes.
24:19I call her Kay.
24:20Call her Kay.
24:21So she arrives.
24:23And then
24:23she's parked
24:24right there
24:25by my house.
24:27I'm down
24:27the stairs
24:28by this time.
24:29Here come
24:30Brandon.
24:31He grabbed me
24:32and pulled me
24:33towards him
24:33and hugged me
24:34very tight
24:35and said,
24:36I love you.
24:37Okay.
24:40Ew.
24:42Sorry.
24:43Take a deep breath.
24:47So then
24:48what happens?
24:49Okay.
24:50She's sitting
24:51in her car.
24:51Mm-hmm.
24:52Waiting on me.
24:54And you start
24:55saying,
24:56get my phone.
24:57Get my phone.
24:59I wish I could
25:00like really show you
25:01me talking.
25:02You can.
25:02You can stand up
25:03and ring and act it.
25:04I have no problem
25:04with that.
25:05Okay.
25:06The next thing
25:07I heard was
25:10I'm like,
25:13and I see him
25:14in her tussling.
25:15and he drives
25:17out of the car.
25:18I mean,
25:18like,
25:18he was really
25:19hitting her.
25:20Or fighting.
25:21Sitting young.
25:22I heard.
25:24Like,
25:24this is a man.
25:26Okay.
25:28I grabbed him.
25:30He pushes me
25:31to get back to her.
25:34Bitch,
25:35get my phone.
25:36Bitch,
25:36you got my phone.
25:37You know what it is.
25:39Do you think
25:40he was intoxicated
25:40last night?
25:41Oh,
25:41he very much was.
25:43So,
25:43alcohol?
25:45And that.
25:46Okay.
25:48I go upstairs.
25:49I went to this.
25:51I heard a car.
25:54She heard a car
25:55speeding out
25:55of the parking lot.
25:57Yeah.
25:58Okay.
25:58There was no one
25:59over there.
26:00So,
26:00she's left?
26:01Mm-hmm.
26:02Okay.
26:03So,
26:03then what's
26:04the next thing
26:04that happens?
26:05I hear a story
26:06next way to go.
26:08Boom!
26:09And then my
26:10sister took,
26:13I ran,
26:14in my black ass
26:15now.
26:16All I heard
26:18was somebody
26:19screaming.
26:21Was it ran?
26:23Yeah,
26:23it did.
26:26But I also
26:27heard
26:30now.
26:32So,
26:32did you ever see
26:33the person
26:33that shot him?
26:34Yes,
26:34sir.
26:36Okay.
26:37Have you ever
26:37seen her
26:38or heard her
26:39talk
26:39about having
26:41a gun?
26:42Yes, sir.
26:44Do you know
26:44what department
26:44she was in?
26:45Of course I do.
26:46She gives
26:47Raiden
26:47Kay's address
26:48and phone number.
26:50Okay.
26:51Okay.
26:57I've got both
26:58witnesses saying
26:59the victim
27:00was beating
27:00up suspect.
27:02Suspect leaves
27:03within minutes.
27:04A figure
27:05that matches
27:06this girl
27:07appears from
27:09the bushes,
27:09gets up
27:10behind him
27:10and executes
27:11him.
27:13It doesn't
27:13appear either
27:14one of our
27:14witnesses
27:14saw McNack's
27:15face
27:15whenever the
27:16trigger was
27:17pulled.
27:19Yes,
27:19we think
27:20she's a suspect.
27:21I think
27:21it's definitely
27:22enough to bring
27:22her down here,
27:23but here's
27:25the deal.
27:25Unless we
27:26get a gun
27:26on confession,
27:27it's weak as hell.
27:28Raiden
27:29will get a
27:29search warrant
27:30for Kay's
27:31apartment.
27:32It's probable
27:32she did it,
27:33but I need a gun
27:34that's gonna match
27:35what's at the scene
27:35or I need
27:36a confession.
27:38She has a warrant.
27:39At least I can
27:39talk to her,
27:40get a feel.
27:4721 hours in.
27:49We're gonna go
27:50to Kay's house
27:50and search it
27:51for a gun.
27:53With the
27:54signed search
27:54warrant in hand,
27:55the team heads
27:56to Kay's apartment.
27:58Basically,
27:59she lives right
27:59around the corner
28:00before it happened.
28:01She had plenty
28:02of time to go
28:02home, park her
28:03car, and go
28:03kill the guy.
28:09Come on!
28:17Call the police!
28:18Search warrant!
28:23Call the police!
28:24Search warrant!
28:47This is pretty bare.
28:50About as bare
28:51an apartment
28:51as you can
28:52possibly get.
28:59Came up dry.
29:00It looks like
29:00they've been
29:01moving out.
29:01There's actually
29:02very little in there.
29:03Most of what
29:04was in there
29:04was junk.
29:06Come on,
29:06canvas.
29:07The team
29:08canvases the complex,
29:09hoping for a lead
29:10on Kay's whereabouts.
29:12I'm looking
29:13for Shorty.
29:15I've not seen
29:16her.
29:16since this thing
29:17happened.
29:18The neighbor
29:18says she last
29:19saw Kay
29:20yesterday afternoon.
29:23Has she got
29:24something to do
29:25with it?
29:26Well, let's
29:26put it this way.
29:27We just kicked
29:28her in her door.
29:29I'm a homicide
29:30detective,
29:30and she's my
29:31number one person
29:32I have to find.
29:33She's been
29:34superior.
29:35You know where
29:35she would have
29:36went, though?
29:37We don't
29:37walk out there.
29:38Okay.
29:39She's driving
29:40a black Nissan
29:41rope.
29:42You have a tag?
29:43She has a
29:44pro tag.
29:44She says
29:46Kay's
29:46Nissan
29:46Rogue
29:47has paper
29:48tags
29:48from a
29:48local
29:49dealership.
29:50Was it
29:51here last
29:51night?
29:51No.
29:53She's home.
29:54Yeah.
29:55There's my
29:56number.
29:57If you see
29:57that car at all,
29:58you can
29:59call me
30:00night or
30:01day.
30:02Okay.
30:03I appreciate
30:03your time,
30:04man.
30:08I know
30:08what the car
30:09is now.
30:09It's a
30:09Nissan
30:09Rogue.
30:10Riding
30:11will put out
30:11a bolo for
30:12Kay's
30:12black Nissan
30:13Rogue.
30:14So, at least
30:15we have
30:15something to
30:16narrow it
30:17down.
30:19Then...
30:19How are you
30:20doing?
30:21Did you see
30:22the apartment
30:22we went in?
30:23Yeah.
30:24When's the
30:25last time you've
30:25seen a resident
30:26there?
30:27I've seen
30:28activity over
30:29there at the
30:29last four
30:30days.
30:32Did you hear
30:33anything last
30:33night?
30:34I heard
30:34somebody knock
30:35on the door.
30:36It was after
30:36the dark.
30:37But I've got
30:38surveillance.
30:41Oh, good.
30:43I appreciate
30:44you very much.
30:52The guy
30:53out there's
30:53got a camera
30:54right?
30:54It's pointing
30:54this way.
30:55He says we
30:56could look
30:56at him.
30:57Cool.
30:58Can you
30:58handle that?
30:59I'm looking
31:00from 7.30
31:01to 9.
31:01Yep.
31:027.30
31:02p.m.
31:03to 9.
31:04Basically,
31:04she has
31:05the fight
31:05with the
31:05victim.
31:06She leaves
31:07in her car
31:08and comes
31:08here.
31:09I'm trying
31:10to figure
31:10out,
31:10did she
31:11go back
31:11and kill
31:12him or
31:12did she
31:12have a
31:13guy go
31:13through it?
31:14The witnesses
31:15think it
31:15was her.
31:18I'm going
31:18to go up
31:18there with
31:19Nathan because
31:20Nathan's
31:20got,
31:20he's probably
31:21got a thumb
31:21drive.
31:21Okay.
31:24Our potential
31:25suspect is not
31:26liked in this
31:27complex by
31:27anybody.
31:28Like, every
31:29neighbor wants
31:29to come tell
31:30on her.
31:30So, we'll
31:32see.
31:39I realized
31:40today I've
31:40eaten one
31:41donut and
31:42went up
31:42one cookie.
31:43As
31:43Ryden takes
31:44a break
31:44after working
31:4522 hours
31:46straight.
31:49Give me
31:50some good
31:51news.
31:51Detective
31:52Jason White
31:53calls in with
31:53an update on
31:54the surveillance
31:54video.
31:55We're still
31:56trying to get
31:56into this
31:57system, so
31:58we're not
31:58there yet
31:59with any
31:59news, but
32:00we're trying.
32:00Okay, that's
32:01going to be
32:02huge if we
32:03see how many
32:04people come
32:04in and out
32:04during the
32:05murder time
32:05frame.
32:07Fingers crossed
32:07we'll have a
32:08problem cause.
32:09If there's
32:10something on
32:10this guy's
32:10camera, we'll
32:11get it.
32:12Thanks, Jason.
32:13I appreciate it.
32:14All right, buddy.
32:14Bye.
32:16Time to go
32:17home and get
32:18some sleep.
32:33The next
32:34morning, I
32:34got the
32:36video
32:36surveillance
32:36from the
32:37neighborhood.
32:38It's a pretty
32:39good video.
32:42This is
32:42Miss
32:43McNack's
32:44apartment.
32:44We'll see
32:45what happens.
32:51There she
32:51goes.
32:52Three minutes
32:53before the
32:54911 call,
32:55at 7.25
32:56p.m.
32:58There's a
32:58suspect
32:58returning home
32:59right after
33:00the fight.
33:01She runs
33:02in, leaves
33:02the door
33:03open.
33:04Not
33:05intending
33:05to stay,
33:06it looked
33:06like, since
33:07we left
33:07the door
33:07wide open.
33:09Now she
33:10ran back
33:10out.
33:12More
33:12than likely
33:12got a
33:13gun.
33:15Four minutes
33:15later.
33:17Okay, now
33:18she's returning
33:19after the
33:19shots have
33:20been heard.
33:20She's running,
33:21trying to
33:22get in.
33:25So this
33:26is a minute
33:27after the
33:28shots were
33:28called in
33:29by the police.
33:32She didn't
33:32make it in.
33:33Now the
33:34entire family
33:34is running
33:35out of the
33:35house to
33:36the suspect.
33:38This
33:38surrounds her
33:39neighbor.
33:39It's a strong
33:40timeline of what
33:41happened.
33:41She was
33:42involved in the
33:43murder.
33:45I'm gonna
33:46try to get a
33:46warrant for
33:47her arrest
33:47issue today.
33:48The next
33:49step is to
33:49find her
33:50and get
33:50her set
33:50of the
33:50story.
33:58As the
33:58first 48
33:59ticks away.
34:00Now four
34:01or five
34:01places up
34:02here to
34:02check.
34:04Detectives
34:05in the
34:05fugitive
34:06warrant
34:06squad scour
34:07the city
34:08for Kay
34:08and her
34:09black
34:09Nissan
34:09Rogue.
34:22Here it
34:23is right
34:23here back
34:23there.
34:24That's her
34:25car.
34:26Detective
34:27Brad Sharp
34:28spots the
34:28Nissan
34:29outside the
34:29home of
34:30one of
34:30Kay's
34:30relatives.
34:32We'll get
34:32turned around
34:33up here.
34:34Warren's
34:35officers will
34:35keep eyes
34:36on the
34:36house,
34:37hoping to
34:37catch Kay
34:38returning to
34:39her car.
34:40There's
34:41the back
34:42door.
34:43I have
34:43that
34:43covered.
34:52An hour
34:53later,
34:54Sharp calls
34:55Ryden
34:56with an
34:57update.
34:58So we
34:58stopped
34:58the
34:59family
35:00member
35:00who
35:00left.
35:02Warren's
35:03officers
35:03spoke with
35:04a family
35:04member
35:04of Kay's
35:05who
35:05left
35:05house.
35:07She gave
35:08us some
35:08information
35:09that she
35:10had dropped
35:10her car
35:11off here
35:11this afternoon.
35:13The woman
35:13said Kay
35:14dropped her
35:14car off
35:15at 1.30
35:16p.m.
35:17She was
35:18with a
35:19sister.
35:19Then left
35:20with her
35:20sister in
35:21a blue
35:22mercury
35:22grand
35:22marquee.
35:28As the
35:29Warren's
35:30squad
35:30continues to
35:31search for
35:32Kay,
35:32I'll pull
35:33over.
35:34Ryden
35:34reaches out
35:35to her.
35:36I texted
35:37her
35:37suspect
35:38and said
35:38it's
35:38Detective
35:39Ryden
35:39with TPD.
35:40I'm sure
35:40you're aware
35:40that the
35:41police are
35:41looking for
35:41you.
35:42I'm a

35:49Thanks,

35:50Ryden.
35:51At this
35:52point,
35:52she's not
35:52going to
35:52talk to
35:53me.
35:53She's
35:53going to
35:53run.
35:55We'll
35:55see.
36:09One week
36:10later.
36:11I was at
36:12home watching
36:13the Sun's
36:14band parade
36:14and I got
36:15called in.
36:16Ms. McNack
36:17has turned
36:17herself in
36:17and wants
36:18to give
36:18a statement.
36:20Warren's
36:20guys did
36:21a great
36:21job and
36:21tightened
36:22the circle
36:22where she
36:23couldn't
36:23hang out
36:23anymore.
36:24So she
36:24turned
36:24herself in
36:25and we'll
36:25see what
36:25she has
36:25to say.
36:31Ms. McNack?
36:32Hi,
36:33I'm
36:33Detective
36:33Ryden.
36:34I do
36:35appreciate
36:35you coming
36:35down here.
36:36I'd like
36:37to get
36:37your side
36:37of the
36:38story if
36:38you want
36:38to give
36:39it.
36:39Make
36:39sense?
36:40Okay.
36:42I know
36:42you're
36:42supposed to
36:43give those
36:43ladies a
36:44ride and
36:45then truth
36:46tells itself.
37:01They
37:02called me
37:02on the phone
37:03and told
37:04me that
37:05they need
37:05to go
37:05send
37:05their
37:06mom
37:06and
37:06daddy
37:06some
37:07money
37:07because
37:07they
37:07were
37:07in
37:08Wichita.
37:08Okay.
37:12As soon
37:12as I
37:13arrived
37:13on there
37:13she was
37:15coming down
37:15this dirt
37:16and
37:17this one
37:17the dude
37:18walked up.
37:19She says
37:20as she parked
37:20her car at the
37:21apartment
37:21she saw
37:22Brandon approach
37:23her friend.
37:25He ran
37:25up to her
37:26and like
37:27spoiled her.
37:28Then Brandon
37:29and her friend
37:29walked toward
37:30her car.
37:31I was
37:32getting out
37:33the car
37:34and he just
37:35turned around
37:36and was like
37:36where the
37:37my phone
37:38is.
37:38I don't know
37:39who he thought
37:40I was
37:41and I was like
37:42real calm.
37:43I was like
37:43I don't got
37:44your phone
37:44I don't even
37:45know you like
37:46that.
37:46And then from there
37:47he just started
37:48hitting me.
37:49He kept
37:50beating me
37:51all like
37:52in my face.
37:53Face?
37:54He made
37:55me smash
37:55my hand
37:56in the door
37:56and he threw
37:57me on the
37:58ground
37:58and at the
38:02same time
38:02she's trying
38:03to get him
38:04off of me.
38:05Get off her
38:05get off her
38:06but he studied
38:07going crazy.
38:09Had he ever
38:10had a beef
38:10with you before?
38:11No.
38:12Okay.
38:13She finally
38:14got him
38:15to get
38:16off a little
38:16bit
38:17I turned
38:17around
38:18and I grabbed
38:19my gun
38:19and my
38:20glove
38:20before
38:22and then
38:23I turned
38:24back around
38:24he was
38:25rushing
38:25back to
38:26me
38:27and then
38:28I started
38:29shooting
38:30and he
38:31was still
38:32like
38:32rushing
38:33towards me
38:34I'm like
38:34what the
38:35heck
38:35because I
38:36shot like
38:37four shots
38:38or five shots
38:39before I
38:40even hit him.
38:42Did you
38:43shoot again
38:44because I have
38:45a pause
38:46in between
38:46shots.
38:47The pause
38:48is when
38:48I'm seeing
38:49he was rushing
38:50and he came
38:51closer
38:51and then
38:53I'm guessing
38:54that's
38:54like
38:54when I
38:55hit him
38:55because
38:55he didn't
38:56try to
38:56charge me
38:57no more
38:57like that.
38:59When I
39:00jumped in
39:00my car
39:01and I
39:01drove up.
39:03Then where
39:03did you
39:04go?
39:04Home.
39:05And what
39:06did you
39:06do?
39:07Got my
39:07kids
39:08and then
39:09I left
39:09for them.
39:10She says
39:10she and
39:10her kids
39:11drove to
39:12a relative's
39:12house.
39:13Okay
39:13we're gonna
39:15go into
39:15a little
39:15more details.
39:17This is
39:17gonna sound
39:18like a weird
39:19question
39:19but I'm
39:19gonna ask
39:20you.
39:20Why
39:20did you
39:21shoot him?
39:22Because
39:23I felt
39:24upset
39:25that I
39:25was good.
39:27He was
39:27erratic
39:28like he
39:29wasn't
39:29gonna
39:29stop.
39:32So
39:33there's a
39:34couple
39:34inconsistencies
39:35and I'm
39:35gonna ask
39:36you about
39:37them
39:37and then
39:37maybe
39:37you can
39:38explain
39:38them.
39:39I have
39:40been told
39:40that
39:41you left
39:42in your
39:43car
39:43and went
39:44home for
39:45like not
39:45even a
39:46minute.
39:47and I
39:47see you
39:47on video
39:48and you
39:49go in
39:49your
39:50apartment
39:51and you
39:52leave
39:52within
39:52seconds
39:54and that's
39:55when it
39:56appears the
39:56shooting was
39:57called into
39:58the police.
39:59So this
40:00is my
40:00question
40:01after the
40:02fight.
40:03Did you
40:03go in
40:03the house
40:03and get
40:04the gun?
40:09Okay
40:09that's
40:10what I
40:10want to
40:10know.
40:13Did you
40:13have to
40:13load the
40:14magazine?
40:14Yeah.
40:16in the
40:16car.
40:18Now
40:18when you
40:19went back
40:19over there
40:19did you
40:20have to
40:20drive or
40:20did you
40:21just walk?
40:22I drove
40:23halfway
40:24and when
40:25I got
40:26back he
40:26was still
40:27right there
40:28going crazy
40:28and then
40:30that's when
40:30I jumped
40:31out and
40:31I came
40:32up and
40:33I'm like
40:33fire,
40:34fire.
40:36And we
40:36was a
40:37stretch
40:37away.
40:40Did you
40:41fire the
40:41first four
40:42and then
40:42get closer
40:43to him?
40:44I'm
40:45getting
40:45closer.
40:46He's
40:47getting
40:47close.
40:48Okay.
40:49Do you
40:50think you
40:50shot him
40:50with the
40:51first set
40:51or the
40:52second set
40:53if you
40:53know?
40:55Second.
40:58And then
40:58did you
40:58go back
40:59to the
40:59apartment
40:59to get
40:59the kids?
41:00So all
41:00that stuff
41:01is true.
41:03Do you
41:04think you
41:04did make
41:04a bad
41:05decision
41:05looking back
41:06on it
41:06now?
41:07Yes.
41:09If you
41:09had to
41:10do it
41:10over
41:11would you
41:11just call
41:12the
41:12police?
41:15Okay.
41:16I'll be
41:16back
41:16very
41:16shortly.
41:23That's
41:24one of
41:24the better
41:24confessions
41:25I've had
41:25in homicide.
41:27She's
41:28likable.
41:28She just
41:29had a story
41:29and then
41:30she lied
41:30and then
41:30she told
41:30the truth
41:31and that's
41:31exactly
41:32what the
41:32investigation
41:33revealed.
41:34I just
41:34didn't know
41:35she went
41:35and got
41:35bullets.
41:36I thought
41:36she went
41:36and got
41:36a gun
41:36but she
41:37had to
41:37get
41:37bullets
41:37below
41:37the
41:38guy.
41:41That was
41:42the most
41:42premeditated
41:43murder I've
41:43ever heard
41:44of though.
41:45She basically
41:45had three
41:46minutes to
41:47decide I'm
41:48going to go
41:48kill him
41:48and this
41:49is how
41:49I'm
41:49going to
41:49go do
41:49it.
41:50So it
41:50really can't
41:51get more
41:51first-degree murder
41:52than that.
42:02She's
42:03got four
42:03kids.
42:04I mean
42:05it's sad
42:05that four
42:05kids' lives
42:06have changed
42:06because their
42:07mom went
42:07to go get
42:08a ride
42:08to someone
42:08trying to
42:09be a good
42:09person and
42:1010 minutes
42:10later she's
42:11killed
42:11Brian Jenkins.
42:13He shouldn't
42:14have assaulted
42:14a female
42:15to begin
42:15with.
42:16She shouldn't
42:16have gone
42:17and premeditated
42:18her murder.
42:19She could
42:19have called
42:19the police
42:20and we
42:20would have
42:20been happy
42:20to arrest
42:21Brian Jenkins
42:21for beating
42:22her up.
42:23There's so many
42:23things that can
42:24have been
42:24done different
42:24in this case.
42:26You can't
42:26go take
42:27justice
42:27in your own
42:27hand and
42:28kill someone
42:28just because
42:29you got
42:29beaten up.
42:30It's not
42:30right that
42:31she was
42:31assaulted but
42:33it doesn't
42:33justify killing
42:42her son.
42:43She was
42:43trying to
42:43I don't
42:44I don't
42:44I don't
42:44I don't
