Short filmTranscript
00:00:02I'm handcuffed to the wall in this torture chamber.
00:00:09There's no windows.
00:00:12It feels eerily silent.
00:00:16This is like a horror film.
00:00:19Am I going to die chained to this wall?
00:00:24There's nowhere to run.
00:00:26There's nowhere to hide.
00:00:30I'm just stuck.
00:00:33I did not picture myself surviving.
00:00:37I want other women, whether they've been stalked or not believed, to see my story and think things can change.
00:00:58I was 20, 21.
00:01:01It was my last year of school.
00:01:03I was working a job.
00:01:06I had an internship.
00:01:08I was so busy.
00:01:10I felt like I had no time.
00:01:12I show up at my job on campus and work my shift, and I hear the door open.
00:01:19And I look, and Christopher's there with flowers in his hands.
00:01:25I just freeze, and my eyes get big, and on the inside, I'm flaming mad, is the angriest I've been,
00:01:33because I thought we were past all of this.
00:01:37He said, you know, I'm really sorry I heard a grandpa passed away.
00:01:41I say, like, I told you, Christopher, I don't want to see you.
00:01:45I don't want to talk to you.
00:01:46I don't want the flowers.
00:01:47Like, just leave me alone.
00:01:51I think he was surprised that I wasn't flattered.
00:01:58I'm, like, waiting outside in the cold at this bus stop, and he approaches me again, and he's like, I
00:02:06just don't understand, and I cut him off, and I said, I don't know what there is to not understand
00:02:14about this situation.
00:02:16And he's like, well, I just feel like there needs to be some closure.
00:02:20I want to figure this out with you, Christopher.
00:02:23I've told you multiple times by text I've blocked you.
00:02:27I don't want to see you.
00:02:29I don't want to talk to you.
00:02:30Don't talk to me.
00:02:31Don't text me.
00:02:32Don't show up where I am.
00:02:33Leave me alone.
00:02:36He thought that was his chance.
00:02:38You know, he's a little Romeo.
00:02:39Not at all.
00:02:40He was creepy.
00:02:42It's the first real experience where I feel like somebody knows what my wishes are very clearly and doesn't care.
00:02:55Christopher, to me, he was, like, a sad, lonely guy.
00:03:01I wouldn't say my first impression was very memorable.
00:03:04I mean, he was certainly older by six, eight years, maybe.
00:03:11He seemed very socially awkward.
00:03:14She was a little bit nice to him, and he took that and he spun it into something it wasn't
00:03:18and ran away with it.
00:03:41One day I caught him at frisbee practice, like, sitting in the stands by himself watching us.
00:03:49And it was a women's frisbee team.
00:03:53And then every week at practice, I would see him either up walking on the track or sitting in the
00:04:00stands.
00:04:02But he never approached me, never talked to me.
00:04:07But at that point, I was like, I just want to graduate.
00:04:10I just want to get through and do the things I'm going to do next.
00:04:20I felt like it was just something I could deal with on my own.
00:04:30Sam initially seems hesitant to accept the situation for what it is.
00:04:37It seems like she's in danger, and it's frustrating to watch her downplay that.
00:04:44This isn't a normal situation.
00:04:46This isn't a coincidence.
00:04:47Like, this is a hazard.
00:04:56I'm very excited to graduate.
00:04:59My mom and my grandma were there, so that was special.
00:05:06I wanted to take a little time off before I did graduate school.
00:05:11So I returned back to Elk Rapids in northern Michigan.
00:05:17The Christopher chapter is behind me.
00:05:22Kind of nice to just catch up with Pat and Robin and some of our other friends.
00:05:28I met Samantha on the soccer team.
00:05:32She was a senior when I was a freshman in high school.
00:05:36It doesn't matter your age or your lifestyle.
00:05:41Sam will give everybody a chance.
00:05:47We lived in this apartment right downtown, across from the local pub, above the Chinese restaurant.
00:05:54Our door was always unlocked, and it was fun.
00:05:58It was cute.
00:06:05Christopher messaged me a few times, like, you know, wanting to come up to Elk Rapids or meet with me.
00:06:11And when I show Carissa, you know, we just kind of laugh and just kind of brush the messages off.
00:06:18He became a running joke, just being this guy who doesn't get it and, you know, get a life.
00:06:24There wasn't room for a villain.
00:06:25It didn't fit in the plot of this story I had written about our situation in paradise.
00:06:37I wanted to take a year or so off and kind of explore my faith a bit more.
00:06:42There was a ministry internship that really caught my eye, and I applied and was accepted.
00:06:48I was located in Kansas City.
00:06:50I was very excited.
00:06:56I've known Sam about 25 years.
00:06:59My youngest daughter is her same age, so they were in school together.
00:07:04You know, Sam doesn't have an active dad in her life.
00:07:06And so I did a lot of the dad stuff, you know, provided rides, tried to be as supportive as
00:07:12I could.
00:07:14Two days before I left to go to Kansas City, Craig and I are running errands together.
00:07:25We had noticed there was a red motorcycle following us.
00:07:35My heart just sank.
00:07:36I knew it was him.
00:07:40How did he find us?
00:07:41Like, I'm not even in my own car.
00:07:44How did he know where we were?
00:07:49So I pull into the high school parking lot.
00:07:51He gets off his motorcycle.
00:07:52I'm going to go confront him.
00:07:54Sam says, nope, I'll do it.
00:07:56I get out of the car, and I say, Christopher, what are you doing here?
00:08:00Like, why are you in my town?
00:08:02He's like, well, I applied for the same internship you did, and I was accepted.
00:08:08Do you think you could give me a ride out there?
00:08:14I am just stunned and deflated.
00:08:20Like, the thing I had been looking so forward to for so long feels like it's ruined.
00:08:25And I tell Craig what Christopher says.
00:08:31Craig says, this is a problem.
00:08:34I'm a solver.
00:08:34So it's like, all right, we're going to stop this.
00:08:39Sam's over at our house.
00:08:40We're sitting down at the table, talking about what happened during the day.
00:08:45Craig's son comes home and says, Sam, there was somebody looking for you.
00:08:50And I said, who was it?
00:08:53And he's like, well, I didn't recognize him.
00:08:55Was he, like, bald and short and redheaded?
00:09:00Sam shows my son, Josh, a picture of Christopher, and Josh realizes he's seen him coming out of Sam's apartment.
00:09:07And that's really when it starts to get even more serious.
00:09:11I realized the gravity of how terrifying that was, that he was literally coming out of our apartment.
00:09:19I felt, like, actually scared and threatened, that he would drive two hours and find where I lived.
00:09:32This man is not just, like, obsessed with you.
00:09:37He's dangerous.
00:09:45Craig says, I think we need to consider a restraining order or a personal protection order, a PPO.
00:09:54I was like, oh my gosh, like, a PPO, a restraining order?
00:09:58Like, Christopher?
00:10:00Like, it just felt so surreal.
00:10:04So we urge her, sit down right now and write down all the things he's done and all the places
00:10:10he's showed up.
00:10:12It's now not just a school issue.
00:10:14It's an all-year-round issue.
00:10:20I thought through the past two or three years and wrote down the list of interactions with Christopher.
00:10:31I met Christopher in 2011.
00:10:36He had joined the same Christian group.
00:10:41I want to be welcoming and kind, so I saw him at different events the group was doing.
00:10:47He friended me on Facebook one day.
00:10:52At first, I think he's just lonely for some reason, finds me an approachable person to talk to.
00:11:02And then, at some point, it kind of changes.
00:11:06He's asking me out on a date if I'm free between classes, have some time for lunch.
00:11:12And so I'm just kind of saying no and letting him down easy and thinking he must get the message.
00:11:17But he doesn't get it.
00:11:37Before my birthday, he approaches me.
00:11:40He says, hey, I know your birthday is coming up.
00:11:43I was wondering, would you want to go see a Red Wings game?
00:11:45I got us tickets.
00:11:50I am just kind of speechless in a bad way.
00:11:53I tell him I'm not interested in going to a Red Wings game with you.
00:12:00It's not like there's anything wrong with you, Christopher.
00:12:02I just don't have any romantic interest in you.
00:12:12He puts a few red roses under my windshield wiper, more flowers, like at my doorstep, with a weird love
00:12:20note.
00:12:21I said, I think you need to kind of back off and to leave me alone.
00:12:27But he won't stop.
00:12:31He was following me to my work, following me in my internship there at Frisbee practice.
00:12:42It was the first time I had really laid out each interaction with him in such a way that once
00:12:50they're put all together, I'm like, this guy's stalking me.
00:13:03I received Samantha's petition requesting a personal protection order against Christopher.
00:13:11I have 24 hours in which to review it and decide whether it should be granted or deny it.
00:13:23I've never seen a stalking case as severe as this.
00:13:28He was obsessed.
00:13:30If you looked up stalker in a dictionary, there'd be a picture of Christopher.
00:13:36So I granted the personal protection order for six years.
00:13:40At the time, this was the longest personal protection order I'd ever issued.
00:13:46I get a hold of the director of the prayer ministry in Kansas City and explain to him,
00:13:51hey, there's a restraining order on Christopher.
00:13:54Can you take care of it?
00:13:56He calls him and says, we're revoking this.
00:13:59You can't come out here.
00:14:01It was a relief.
00:14:03It was over.
00:14:04And I could just pack my car and drive off into the sunset.
00:14:13After the PPO is granted, life goes back to normal and it's like he never existed.
00:14:23I went to graduate school and I trained as a private practice therapist.
00:14:29I had friends that were, like, interested in what I was doing.
00:14:34So I write this blog and there's a woman named Sarah Mott that comments.
00:14:40And she just said, well, I just stumbled across your blog.
00:14:45And I was like, oh, this is kind of cool.
00:15:02I moved back to Michigan because I really missed, I missed home.
00:15:08A lot had changed.
00:15:10My mom and my grandma passed away.
00:15:18It was really tough for me.
00:15:21I think it shook a lot of kind of my identity.
00:15:29I buy a house and I dug into painting and house projects.
00:15:38I joined this, like, adult recreational soccer league.
00:15:44This league is a true social gathering.
00:15:48Sam's good.
00:15:49She's a skilled player.
00:15:51She's very confident with the ball and knows what she's doing.
00:15:58I'm arriving to one of my soccer games and I see Christopher.
00:16:11I just stopped dead in my tracks.
00:16:15It looks like he's lost a lot of weight.
00:16:17Like, what is he even doing here?
00:16:20I was kind of shaken up the whole game just seeing him again.
00:16:24He didn't acknowledge me or speak to me.
00:16:29Like, what, am I in danger?
00:16:36I went back through my files and found the PPO and saw it had expired.
00:16:42There's something wrong with this guy.
00:16:43This guy's not here to play soccer.
00:16:45He's here to watch Sam.
00:16:48And when did he start doing that?
00:16:49He started as soon as his restraining order lapsed.
00:16:57I do worry that he maybe is coming after me in a vengeful way,
00:17:03wanting to hurt me for denying him all those years ago.
00:17:10When Sam first met Christopher,
00:17:14he was this kind of just soft,
00:17:18chubby,
00:17:19seemingly harmless,
00:17:21awkward guy.
00:17:23It seemed to me
00:17:25when I saw him ten years later,
00:17:27he had been training
00:17:29for something.
00:17:30That's how it felt.
00:17:47Christopher didn't scream soccer player.
00:17:49He was kind of awkward with his body,
00:17:51didn't really know how to play,
00:17:53didn't know how to move his legs and feet correctly.
00:17:59I approached this league's organizers
00:18:03and tell them about my fear
00:18:05that Christopher is following me again.
00:18:08And the league organizer says,
00:18:12I'm sorry,
00:18:13like I spoke with an attorney
00:18:14and there's nothing I can do
00:18:15to really kick him out.
00:18:18Technically,
00:18:18Christopher's not doing anything wrong.
00:18:23Then one day I am grocery shopping
00:18:27and I see him.
00:18:33I remember her telling me
00:18:35that she would go to the gym
00:18:36and she would see him there.
00:18:42He was everywhere.
00:19:11I'm playing soccer one day
00:19:13and he's playing against me
00:19:15and somebody passes the ball.
00:19:20He's faster than me
00:19:22and he beats me to the ball.
00:19:25Christopher was overly aggressive with Sam,
00:19:28just running into her,
00:19:30almost to like just put a body on her
00:19:33instead of go for the ball.
00:19:36It was not normal behavior.
00:19:40He turns around and looks at me
00:19:43and sticks out his tongue.
00:19:44He's like,
00:19:48and I just am infuriated.
00:19:55Like I felt like no matter where I played,
00:19:58he was just always in my area
00:20:01and I just kind of broke down.
00:20:03Like I subbed out of the game.
00:20:08I feared that I would never be free of him.
00:20:19Carissa comes into Elk Rapids
00:20:21and she stays at the same apartment
00:20:23we used to live in in college.
00:20:30We go up on the roof,
00:20:32we're drinking wine,
00:20:33we're chatting.
00:20:34Neither of us told each other,
00:20:35but we were both scanning the premises.
00:20:40And I happened to glance over
00:20:43next to this alleyway
00:20:44next to my apartment
00:20:45and I see,
00:20:47guess who?
00:20:48Christopher looked around
00:20:50when he was walking down the street a lot,
00:20:52like he was looking for me.
00:20:54And at that point in me,
00:20:56like a switch flipped
00:20:58and I got up,
00:21:01I ran downstairs
00:21:02and I just scream.
00:21:05I've never screamed.
00:21:06I said,
00:21:06Christopher,
00:21:07what are you doing?
00:21:09What are you doing in Elk Rapids?
00:21:12He said,
00:21:13well,
00:21:13I can't go home
00:21:15because I'm drunk.
00:21:16I'm like,
00:21:17you're not even drunk.
00:21:18Why are you following Sam?
00:21:22And he said,
00:21:24I haven't talked to Sam.
00:21:26I haven't said a word to Sam
00:21:27in eight years.
00:21:31I said,
00:21:31then why are you following her?
00:21:34And he said,
00:21:34I'm not following you.
00:21:36I said,
00:21:37well,
00:21:37you're everywhere
00:21:38and it's weird.
00:21:39So stop.
00:21:40And if I see you again,
00:21:41I'm going to call the police.
00:21:43I was terrified.
00:21:45I called my family.
00:21:47I called all of Sam's friends.
00:21:49I said,
00:21:50I'm really concerned about this.
00:21:55The more Sam sees Chris out in public,
00:21:57the more she gets concerned.
00:22:02She is a little more on edge.
00:22:06She's more irritable.
00:22:10People were concerned for Sam at this point.
00:22:13You have to get on the PPO.
00:22:15We will all write reports.
00:22:16There's no way
00:22:17that they can deny this evidence.
00:22:20It's frustrating for me.
00:22:21I had the gut feeling
00:22:22that I did not have enough evidence.
00:22:26We all thought
00:22:27that Christopher was a psychopath.
00:22:32Robin had suggested,
00:22:34you know,
00:22:35do you have any protection in your home?
00:22:38Like,
00:22:38do you have a firearm?
00:22:41Like,
00:22:41what's to prevent him
00:22:42from potentially trying to break in your home?
00:22:46And I said,
00:22:47well,
00:22:48like,
00:22:48all my windows and doors are locked.
00:22:50My friend had gotten me a ring camera.
00:22:54I kept,
00:22:56like,
00:22:56a really sharp hatchet.
00:22:58Like,
00:22:59it was,
00:22:59like,
00:22:59sharp to the touch like a knife
00:23:01right under my mattress.
00:23:03I felt better having a weapon.
00:23:05It's an easy access thing
00:23:08if something goes bump in the night.
00:23:20Pat
00:23:21and a friend
00:23:22had come up
00:23:23to stay with me
00:23:24and hang out
00:23:25for the long holiday weekend.
00:23:29We went to a bar.
00:23:31The first conversation we had
00:23:33was with Sam
00:23:35telling us how
00:23:36Chris followed her
00:23:37the other night
00:23:38and Carissa,
00:23:40classic Carissa,
00:23:41she goes off on this guy.
00:23:4330 seconds later,
00:23:45who walks in?
00:23:46Chris walks in.
00:23:50We all sink our heads.
00:23:52Holy hell,
00:23:53this guy's,
00:23:54this guy's tracking her.
00:23:58I see Christopher
00:23:59sitting by himself
00:24:01with his phone out
00:24:02directly behind me.
00:24:05There's just no way
00:24:07how is he here also
00:24:08and I'm scared.
00:24:10And I say,
00:24:12hey,
00:24:12can we leave?
00:24:14I gotta make this stop.
00:24:17As soon as I got next to him,
00:24:19you could almost like
00:24:20see him tense up.
00:24:22I remember saying his name.
00:24:24I said,
00:24:24Chris,
00:24:25I know you're following Sam.
00:24:27I know what you're doing.
00:24:28I know you're stalking her.
00:24:32Once we got back from the bar,
00:24:33we knew who he was tracking her.
00:24:36That was the first time
00:24:37we really
00:24:39kind of brainstormed,
00:24:40like how could Christopher
00:24:41possibly
00:24:43keep showing up
00:24:44at the same places?
00:24:46Like,
00:24:47is he driving by her house?
00:24:53I cleaned out
00:24:54the inside of my car.
00:24:56I looked around
00:24:57by my windshield
00:24:59and like my hatch.
00:25:02Like,
00:25:02I'm not,
00:25:03I'm not a mechanic.
00:25:04I don't know.
00:25:05What does a tracker
00:25:06even look like?
00:25:08We kept digging
00:25:09until our
00:25:10flashlights
00:25:11died
00:25:12and
00:25:12until our shirts
00:25:13were dirty.
00:25:16Unfortunately,
00:25:17I didn't find it.
00:25:21I decided
00:25:22I needed to
00:25:23try to get a PPO
00:25:25and I needed to
00:25:26try to get proof
00:25:28because I
00:25:28didn't think
00:25:29I had enough evidence
00:25:30to really
00:25:31get another
00:25:32restraining order.
00:25:34She
00:25:35felt confident
00:25:36that she
00:25:37didn't have enough evidence
00:25:38for a PPO
00:25:39when we felt
00:25:40certain that she did.
00:25:42We were all
00:25:43scared
00:25:44and feeling
00:25:44very urgent
00:25:45like,
00:25:46Sam,
00:25:46we need you
00:25:47to do this.
00:25:48Something has to be done.
00:25:49This guy's a weirdo.
00:25:52I got in touch
00:25:53with Devin
00:25:53who is an assistant
00:25:55prosecutor
00:25:55and said,
00:25:57can you help me
00:25:58with a PPO?
00:25:59Christopher
00:26:00had smartened up.
00:26:02He never tried
00:26:03to even talk
00:26:04to me
00:26:04or get in touch
00:26:05with me.
00:26:06So I feel like
00:26:07it's going to be
00:26:07tough to prove.
00:26:10And she's like,
00:26:11I don't know,
00:26:12I think we should try.
00:26:18I would be scared
00:26:19if I was Sam.
00:26:20I didn't want
00:26:21to freak her out,
00:26:22but I wanted her
00:26:24to start
00:26:25taking steps
00:26:26to protect herself.
00:26:28I filled out
00:26:29the paperwork.
00:26:30I actually met
00:26:31Devin
00:26:32at the courthouse
00:26:34and formally
00:26:36filed it.
00:26:38We also
00:26:39attached
00:26:40her previous
00:26:41personal protection order.
00:26:43I wanted
00:26:44it to be shown
00:26:46that there was
00:26:46a six-year
00:26:47personal protection order,
00:26:48which to me
00:26:49is unheard of
00:26:50for a first time.
00:26:51When I was
00:26:53at the office,
00:26:54I specifically
00:26:56asked the clerk,
00:26:56I said,
00:26:57if Christopher
00:26:59were to come
00:26:59in and inquire
00:27:00if there was
00:27:01any petitions
00:27:02filed against him,
00:27:03would you be able
00:27:04to answer that?
00:27:06And she said,
00:27:07no,
00:27:07that information
00:27:08is confidential.
00:27:13I felt hopeful.
00:27:16There's an assistant
00:27:17prosecutor
00:27:18helping me file this.
00:27:20Like,
00:27:20she must think
00:27:22I've got enough.
00:27:22What's the harm
00:27:23in granting it?
00:27:29On Friday,
00:27:31I checked the mailbox
00:27:32and I opened
00:27:35the letter
00:27:35and it says
00:27:37the petition was denied.
00:27:43Because it appeared
00:27:45myself and Christopher
00:27:47had a complicated
00:27:49relationship.
00:27:53I was very upset.
00:27:55I remember just
00:27:57cranking music
00:27:58in my car
00:27:58and driving out
00:27:59to where I was
00:28:00meeting my friend.
00:28:04I felt so defeated.
00:28:06It felt like
00:28:07a slap in the face.
00:28:12And then,
00:28:13what does he do?
00:28:14He goes to Menards,
00:28:15he starts building
00:28:16in his bunker.
00:28:23That's when
00:28:23he took action.
00:28:26I was shocked
00:28:27and worried for Sam
00:28:29when the PPO was denied.
00:28:30What you're essentially
00:28:31telling her
00:28:32is you don't believe her.
00:28:36The people
00:28:37that were supposed
00:28:37to protect her
00:28:38have failed her.
00:28:40if Sam
00:28:42is going to get
00:28:43stalked
00:28:43and not get
00:28:44protected,
00:28:46then who will?
00:28:49I think it's
00:28:50definitely
00:28:51a comment
00:28:52on society
00:28:53about
00:28:53how hard women
00:28:55have to fight
00:28:55to be believed,
00:28:57how easy
00:28:59it is
00:29:00to just look
00:29:01the other way.
00:29:05he knew
00:29:06where she lived.
00:29:10I don't know
00:29:11what his intent is.
00:29:12If he wants
00:29:13to hurt me,
00:29:14it's just
00:29:15this ticking
00:29:16time bomb
00:29:17that I couldn't
00:29:18do anything about.
00:29:40This really becomes
00:29:42kind of a fight
00:29:43for my life.
00:30:03It was a Friday
00:30:04morning.
00:30:06I heard
00:30:07a noise.
00:30:08I heard
00:30:08like the squeak
00:30:09of a floorboard.
00:30:11It sounded like
00:30:12it was just
00:30:12outside my bedroom
00:30:13door.
00:30:16I could see
00:30:18some sort
00:30:19of shadow
00:30:19that wasn't
00:30:20normally there.
00:30:23And my heart
00:30:24starts racing.
00:30:27My mind
00:30:28shoots to
00:30:29the hatchet
00:30:30I kept
00:30:31under my mattress.
00:30:33In that second,
00:30:35someone storms
00:30:36into my room
00:30:37and jumps
00:30:38on me
00:30:39while I'm in bed.
00:30:41And I begin
00:30:41screaming,
00:30:42hoping that
00:30:43someone would
00:30:43hear me.
00:30:45And I feel
00:30:47his hands
00:30:48around my throat.
00:30:49and he
00:30:50begins to choke
00:30:52me.
00:30:54And it gets
00:30:55tougher to breathe.
00:30:57And I just think
00:30:58he's going to kill me.
00:31:02I recognize
00:31:03immediately
00:31:06that it's Christopher.
00:31:10He picks me up.
00:31:13We approach my car.
00:31:14he puts me
00:31:16in the back seat.
00:31:18I'm being kidnapped
00:31:19in my own vehicle.
00:31:21Once we leave
00:31:22my house,
00:31:23the likelihood
00:31:24of me surviving
00:31:25this experience
00:31:26goes down
00:31:27drastically.
00:31:29This really becomes
00:31:32kind of a fight
00:31:33for my life.
00:31:39He stops the car
00:31:41and asks me
00:31:42to lean forward
00:31:43and he ties
00:31:44a bandana
00:31:44around my eyes
00:31:45so I can't
00:31:45see anymore.
00:31:47But I know
00:31:47the neighborhood
00:31:48and I begin
00:31:50counting the turns.
00:32:06So I see
00:32:07like a garage
00:32:07door.
00:32:22Christopher gets out
00:32:23of the car
00:32:24and he picks
00:32:24me up again
00:32:25and we kind
00:32:27of take a couple
00:32:29steps and then
00:32:29we crouch
00:32:32and I can smell
00:32:33lumber.
00:32:37Then I can hear
00:32:38that I'm like
00:32:39in a more
00:32:40enclosed space
00:32:41and then we go
00:32:42through another
00:32:43threshold
00:32:44and then
00:32:46he sets me down
00:32:47on this soft surface
00:32:48and takes off
00:32:49my bandana.
00:32:54I look around
00:32:55and I'm in
00:32:55this tiny
00:32:58seven by seven
00:32:59little room.
00:33:03I see like
00:33:04these soundproof
00:33:05patches on the
00:33:06wall.
00:33:09So no one's
00:33:11going to hear
00:33:11me scream
00:33:14and I glance
00:33:15over and I see
00:33:16metal rings
00:33:17on the walls
00:33:18and I just
00:33:20think
00:33:20oh my god.
00:33:22This is like
00:33:24a horror film.
00:33:29and I say
00:33:31you want to
00:33:32talk?
00:33:32Let's talk.
00:33:34He says
00:33:35well I didn't
00:33:37just bring you
00:33:38here to talk
00:33:40for the day.
00:33:41You're actually
00:33:42going to be here
00:33:42for two weeks.
00:33:44He says I've
00:33:45taken vacation
00:33:46and we're
00:33:48going to spend
00:33:48some time
00:33:48together.
00:33:51And I
00:33:52try to hold
00:33:53back tears
00:33:56and I say
00:33:59okay what are
00:34:00we going
00:34:00to do for
00:34:01two weeks
00:34:02Christopher?
00:34:04He says
00:34:05well I have
00:34:05a deck
00:34:05of cards.
00:34:08And I say
00:34:09well people
00:34:09are going to
00:34:10know I'm
00:34:10missing.
00:34:12And he says
00:34:13well I think
00:34:13I'll keep
00:34:14them occupied.
00:34:16I've planned
00:34:17to take
00:34:18your paddleboard
00:34:19and leave
00:34:20it out
00:34:21at Lake
00:34:21Michigan
00:34:22and let
00:34:23people think
00:34:24maybe you
00:34:25drowned
00:34:26and that
00:34:26will keep
00:34:27them busy.
00:34:35I maybe
00:34:35have the
00:34:36day
00:34:36before people
00:34:37start to
00:34:39raise eyebrows
00:34:39about where
00:34:40I am.
00:34:41Is he
00:34:41going to panic?
00:34:42Are things
00:34:43going to get
00:34:43tense?
00:34:44Is he
00:34:44going to
00:34:44kill me?
00:34:45I say
00:34:46to him
00:34:46let's talk.
00:34:47I'm a social
00:34:48worker.
00:34:48I can talk.
00:34:51He asks
00:34:52me specific
00:34:53things like
00:34:54who was I
00:34:54with when
00:34:55we went
00:34:55camping
00:34:57on this
00:34:57date?
00:35:04What was
00:35:05I doing
00:35:06in Glen Lake
00:35:06two Thursdays
00:35:08ago?
00:35:11I answer
00:35:12him truthfully
00:35:15I think
00:35:16he's testing
00:35:16me because
00:35:17he already
00:35:18seems to
00:35:19know the
00:35:19answer.
00:35:21He reveals
00:35:22with some
00:35:22pride that
00:35:23he has a
00:35:24tracker on
00:35:24my car.
00:35:27He showed
00:35:28me the
00:35:28app on his
00:35:29phone that
00:35:29he used
00:35:30and you
00:35:30know anytime
00:35:31you leave
00:35:32your little
00:35:33neighborhood
00:35:33it alerts
00:35:34me and I
00:35:35see where
00:35:35you're going.
00:35:38and he
00:35:40revealed he
00:35:40also had
00:35:42trackers on
00:35:43my roommate's
00:35:44car and
00:35:45my friend's
00:35:45car.
00:35:48I asked
00:35:49him how
00:35:50long he'd
00:35:50been doing
00:35:50that and he
00:35:51said maybe
00:35:52a year.
00:35:56Christopher is
00:35:57a psychopath.
00:35:59he is
00:36:01someone that
00:36:02I can't
00:36:03use normal
00:36:03logic with.
00:36:06I decide
00:36:07to ask
00:36:07him more
00:36:08about this
00:36:09space that
00:36:10he has
00:36:10me in.
00:36:11Did you
00:36:12build this?
00:36:13And he
00:36:14says yes.
00:36:14He built
00:36:15it himself
00:36:15and he
00:36:16kind of
00:36:16takes pride
00:36:17in building
00:36:19this structure.
00:36:21He tells
00:36:22me I
00:36:23kind of
00:36:24got this
00:36:24idea for
00:36:25this bunker
00:36:26from watching
00:36:27that show
00:36:27the TV
00:36:28show You.
00:36:33The show
00:36:35You is
00:36:36about a
00:36:37good looking
00:36:38young man
00:36:38who becomes
00:36:40obsessed with
00:36:41a woman
00:36:42and he
00:36:43essentially
00:36:43kidnaps
00:36:45her and
00:36:46keeps her
00:36:47in this
00:36:48glass room
00:36:49which Christopher
00:36:50says wasn't
00:36:51logistically
00:36:51possible.
00:36:53He had
00:36:53looked into
00:36:54it.
00:36:54This main
00:36:55character
00:36:56is this
00:36:57psychopath.
00:36:58He ends
00:36:59up murdering
00:37:00the woman
00:37:00and you've
00:37:01related to
00:37:01this person.
00:37:03I need
00:37:04to try
00:37:05to convince
00:37:06him that
00:37:07we can
00:37:07be friends.
00:37:17That afternoon
00:37:18he pulled
00:37:21a piece of
00:37:21clothing out
00:37:23out of
00:37:23this tub
00:37:24and he
00:37:25says
00:37:26there's
00:37:26something
00:37:26I've
00:37:27really
00:37:27wanted
00:37:27to
00:37:27give
00:37:28you
00:37:28and
00:37:29maybe
00:37:29it's
00:37:30kind
00:37:30of
00:37:30silly
00:37:30but
00:37:31I've kept
00:37:32it all this
00:37:32time.
00:37:33He pulls out
00:37:35this
00:37:35Red Wings jersey
00:37:37and on the back
00:37:39it has my last
00:37:40name on it.
00:37:42He says
00:37:43I actually
00:37:44got this
00:37:44for you
00:37:45when I bought
00:37:47those Red Wing tickets
00:37:48all that time
00:37:49ago.
00:37:54Christopher
00:37:55initially bought
00:37:55those tickets
00:37:56in college for my
00:37:57birthday and I told
00:37:59him I never wanted
00:38:00to go to a Red Wings
00:38:01hockey game with
00:38:02him.
00:38:04And I said to him
00:38:06you know
00:38:07maybe after
00:38:08all of this
00:38:09maybe we can
00:38:10go see a Red Wings
00:38:11game sometime.
00:38:12You know
00:38:13maybe we can
00:38:13be friends.
00:38:15I think
00:38:16okay
00:38:17I have this
00:38:18foot in the door.
00:38:22He says
00:38:23I'm really sorry
00:38:24I did that
00:38:25to you this morning.
00:38:26I just had to
00:38:27talk to you
00:38:28and I thought
00:38:28you would never
00:38:29talk to me
00:38:31unless I did
00:38:32something like this.
00:38:38He has this
00:38:39moment where
00:38:40he says
00:38:42that he's
00:38:43scared of
00:38:44prison
00:38:45and he says
00:38:46I would never

00:55:17your
00:55:17Netflix
00:55:17history
00:55:21you know
00:55:22I don't
00:55:23even
00:55:23open
00:55:23the TV
00:55:24so
00:55:25the way
00:55:25that he
00:55:25snapped
00:55:26his head
00:55:26and looked
00:55:26at me
00:55:26when I
00:55:27asked him
00:55:27I knew
00:55:27that he
00:55:27had seen
00:55:28him
00:55:29he's kind
00:55:30of surprised
00:55:30during the start of the role
00:55:31playing
00:55:31yeah
00:55:32that's why I took it too far
00:55:33like when my wife
00:55:35like when my wife says
00:55:35surprised me
00:55:36I take her out to dinner
00:55:36and gave her flowers
00:55:37I mean
00:55:38there's role playing
00:55:41and then there's
00:55:41breaking into someone's house
00:55:43kidnapping them
00:55:44binding and gagging them
00:55:45putting them in a car
00:55:47driving them to a storage unit
00:55:49that you have staged
00:55:50with a soundproof room
00:55:52hooking them to a
00:55:53metal bracket
00:55:55on the wall
00:55:56making the
00:55:57in a bucket
00:55:58and then raping them
00:55:59I didn't rape Sam
00:56:02but if she was not
00:56:03okay with this
00:56:04as you said in the beginning
00:56:05that's rape
00:56:07knowing the things
00:56:08that he did to her
00:56:10I'm looking
00:56:10across the table at him
00:56:11and I am thinking
00:56:12that he is pure evil
00:56:15I've never seen
00:56:16daylight again
00:56:17why do you say that?
00:56:18because you've already
00:56:19built a case against me
00:56:20and you're taking
00:56:21everything that she says
00:56:23as truth
00:56:24he's trying to
00:56:26give us a story
00:56:27to paint
00:56:27Sam
00:56:28in a terrible light
00:56:30and that she was
00:56:31complicit in everything
00:56:32I have a lot of experience
00:56:34doing these types of cases
00:56:35and what I've
00:56:37come to understand
00:56:39over the years
00:56:39especially with juries
00:56:41is they expect
00:56:43somebody to act
00:56:44a certain way
00:56:44if they're being sexually
00:56:45assaulted
00:56:45they should fight
00:56:46they should run
00:56:47and if they don't do that
00:56:49they're not believed
00:56:51so I'm going to do
00:56:51a buckle swab
00:56:52on the right side
00:56:53and a buckle swab
00:56:54on the left side
00:56:58there was a lot
00:56:59more information
00:56:59out there
00:56:59that we had
00:57:00to try to find
00:57:13at the hospital
00:57:14Sam mentioned
00:57:15that he removed
00:57:16all the hair
00:57:16from his body
00:57:17so he could
00:57:18avoid detection
00:57:19DNA wise
00:57:20he didn't want
00:57:21to leave hair behind
00:57:22so he tried
00:57:23to chemically
00:57:24remove a bunch
00:57:25of his hair
00:57:25and it had
00:57:25a bad skin reaction
00:57:29and when he took
00:57:31his pants
00:57:32and his shirt off
00:57:33you could see
00:57:33chemical burns
00:57:34on his body
00:57:37I want to put
00:57:38a case together
00:57:39that makes him
00:57:40go to jail
00:57:40for the longest
00:57:41time possible
00:57:56one of my first
00:57:57phone calls
00:57:57was to Noelle
00:57:58Mogenberg
00:57:59she's the head
00:58:00prosecuting attorney
00:58:01in Grand Traverse
00:58:01County
00:58:03I got a call
00:58:04from Detective
00:58:05Matucci
00:58:06and we've worked
00:58:07together for a long
00:58:08time so I was
00:58:09kind of like

00:58:10up
00:58:11that's a good
00:58:11one
00:58:12but what's going

00:58:13you need

00:58:14no I'm serious
00:58:15and in my mind
00:58:17at that point
00:58:17I'm formulating
00:58:18okay what is this
00:58:19going to look like
00:58:20when we go to court
00:58:22I had just hoped
00:58:23that a jury
00:58:24would believe Sam
00:58:25and she was
00:58:26extremely believable
00:58:27and had this long
00:58:28history of telling
00:58:29him no
00:58:33this is a prepaid
00:58:34call from

01:00:00I didn't have
01:00:00to find
01:00:01another
01:00:01plan
01:00:02to hide
01:00:03or escape
01:00:04or
01:00:05live in fear
01:00:06that he could

01:00:07to my home
01:00:08he was locked
01:00:09up
01:00:09and
01:00:10it felt
01:00:11like another
01:00:12win
01:00:12all right
01:00:14hold on
01:00:14one sec
01:00:16all right

01:00:171024
01:00:20every piece
01:00:21of information
01:00:22that we got
01:00:22was important
01:00:23we did our best
01:00:24to locate the
01:00:25trackers
01:00:25initially he had
01:00:27outright denied
01:00:28having any trackers
01:00:29on any vehicles
01:00:30where's Sam's at
01:00:31on her car
01:00:32you don't know
01:00:34where you put it at
01:00:36she put it in there
01:00:37she did not
01:00:38put a tracking
01:00:39place on her own
01:00:39car Christopher
01:00:40she didn't
01:00:41he didn't want
01:00:42to admit to a
01:00:43misdemeanor
01:00:43of tracking
01:00:44somebody
01:00:46and meanwhile
01:00:47he's looking
01:00:47at several
01:00:48life offenses
01:00:49for what he
01:00:50had just done
01:00:51nowhere could
01:00:52I find them
01:00:53I even told
01:00:53Sam that I
01:00:54can't believe
01:00:55that I'm being
01:00:55beaten by this
01:00:56guy on these
01:00:57placements
01:00:57of these trackers
01:00:58one of the
01:00:58cars we put it
01:00:59up on a rack
01:00:59where we could
01:01:00get underneath
01:01:00it
01:01:05he put them
01:01:06up underneath
01:01:06the bumpers
01:01:07these particular
01:01:08trackers
01:01:08you only get
01:01:09a couple of
01:01:10weeks worth
01:01:10of battery
01:01:10life on
01:01:11them
01:01:22so he had
01:01:23to travel
01:01:23to all
01:01:24these
01:01:24different
01:01:24locations
01:01:24to constantly
01:01:26check the
01:01:26batteries
01:01:27charge the
01:01:28batteries
01:01:28and place
01:01:28the trackers
01:01:29back on
01:01:29and off
01:01:30all these
01:01:30vehicles
01:01:32it seemed
01:01:33like when
01:01:34he was not
01:01:34at work
01:01:34or sleeping
01:01:35he was
01:01:35tracking her
01:01:36so when we
01:01:38looked at his
01:01:38phone
01:01:38I can't even
01:01:39count how
01:01:40many videos
01:01:41and pictures
01:01:42of Sam

01:02:02whole time
01:02:02I just
01:02:03had the
01:02:03feeling
01:02:03like I
01:02:04was being

01:03:33scary
01:03:52I got a text
01:03:53message
01:03:54and it was
01:03:55the detective
01:03:55from Grand
01:03:56Traverse
01:03:56and he said
01:03:57can you
01:03:57call me
01:03:57so I
01:03:58called him
01:03:59and he
01:04:00said
01:04:00do you
01:04:00remember
01:04:02a guy
01:04:03named
01:04:03Christopher
01:04:04Thomas

01:04:05think I
01:04:06said
01:04:07I will
01:04:08never
01:04:08forget
01:04:09a guy
01:04:10named
01:04:10Christopher
01:04:10Thomas
01:04:22in 2009
01:04:24I was
01:04:25in college
01:04:26full time
01:04:26and working
01:04:27at a residential
01:04:27treatment center
01:04:28and that's
01:04:29where I met
01:04:29Christopher
01:04:31one day
01:04:32he asked
01:04:33if I wanted
01:04:33to go to
01:04:34dinner
01:04:37and I
01:04:38didn't really
01:04:38think too
01:04:39much of it
01:04:40but apparently
01:04:41he did
01:04:44so next
01:04:44he wanted
01:04:45to know
01:04:45if I wanted
01:04:46to go
01:04:46ice skating
01:04:47I did not
01:04:48want to go
01:04:48ice skating
01:04:49with him
01:04:51but that's
01:04:52when I was
01:04:52younger
01:04:52and still
01:04:53trying to
01:04:53be nice
01:04:54and so
01:04:55I told him
01:04:56that I had
01:04:57studying to do
01:04:57instead of
01:04:58just flat out
01:04:58saying no
01:04:59I don't
01:04:59want to go
01:05:02when I
01:05:03set those
01:05:03boundaries
01:05:04and he
01:05:04didn't
01:05:04like it
01:05:05things
01:05:05kind of
01:05:05escalated
01:05:05after that
01:05:09the spring
01:05:10semester
01:05:10I was
01:05:11sitting in
01:05:11class

01:05:12would see
01:05:12him drive
01:05:13through the
01:05:14parking lot

01:05:19not long
01:05:20after that
01:05:20my friend
01:05:21was at the
01:05:22house
01:05:23and I
01:05:24looked out

01:05:26was like

01:05:40serious

01:06:38his behavior
01:06:39he found
01:06:40a new
01:06:40victim
01:06:40I always
01:06:41knew
01:06:42that there
01:06:42would be
01:06:43somebody
01:06:43else
01:06:44and at
01:06:45that point
01:06:45you know
01:06:45I didn't
01:06:46know who
01:06:47I didn't
01:06:47know where
01:06:48I didn't
01:06:48know when
01:06:49and when
01:06:50I talked
01:06:50to the
01:06:50detective
01:06:50there was
01:06:51like this
01:06:51guilty
01:06:52like he
01:06:53did do
01:06:53it to
01:06:54somebody
01:06:54else
01:06:54I was
01:06:55right
01:06:55I knew
01:06:55this was
01:06:56going to
01:06:56happen
01:06:59how could
01:06:59this have
01:07:00gone on
01:07:00so long
01:07:00with me
01:07:01if he's
01:07:02done
01:07:02something
01:07:02like this
01:07:03before
01:07:04the
01:07:04system's
01:07:05not set
01:07:06up to
01:07:06really
01:07:06protect
01:07:07and
01:07:07defend
01:07:08women
01:07:09a victim
01:07:10of rape
01:07:11or sexual
01:07:12assault
01:07:15doesn't
01:07:17necessarily
01:07:17see justice
01:07:18most of
01:07:19the time
01:07:19so
01:07:21what's
01:07:21going to
01:07:21be
01:07:22different
01:07:22about
01:07:22me
01:07:24I found
01:07:25out that
01:07:25the defense
01:07:25wanted to
01:07:26have
01:07:26Christopher
01:07:27evaluated
01:07:27for criminal
01:07:28responsibility
01:07:29which means
01:07:30was he
01:07:31at the time
01:07:31of the offense
01:07:32able to
01:07:32understand
01:07:33right from
01:07:33wrong
01:07:36the risk
01:07:37always is
01:07:37if someone
01:07:38comes back
01:07:39and the report
01:07:40says that
01:07:41they are
01:07:41are insane
01:07:42then what
01:07:43happens
01:07:43is
01:07:44they're
01:07:44hospitalized
01:07:44and then
01:07:45after a
01:07:46certain
01:07:46time
01:07:47they're
01:07:47released
01:07:48it was
01:07:49several
01:07:50competency
01:07:50evaluations
01:07:51and each
01:07:52time
01:07:53he was
01:07:54ruled
01:07:55responsible
01:07:56for his
01:07:56actions
01:07:57you know
01:07:58I want
01:07:59to get
01:08:00some closure
01:08:00for myself
01:08:01and
01:08:02it just
01:08:03drags on
01:08:04his attorney
01:08:05wanted to
01:08:06get an
01:08:06independent
01:08:06competency
01:08:07exam
01:08:08to compare
01:08:08to the
01:08:09state
01:08:09exam
01:08:10but they
01:08:11came up
01:08:11with the
01:08:11same
01:08:11conclusion
01:08:37there were
01:08:37a few
01:08:37conversations
01:08:38that he
01:08:38had with
01:08:39his mother
01:08:39when she
01:08:40would get
01:08:40upset
01:08:41and it
01:08:41was one
01:08:41phone call
01:08:42in particular
01:08:43really
01:08:45it kind
01:08:45of scared
01:08:46me a little
01:08:46bit
01:08:46but anyways
01:08:47I'm sorry
01:08:48that you
01:08:48were so lonely
01:08:49and I'm
01:08:50sorry
01:08:52I made you
01:08:53get your own
01:08:53place
01:08:54I should
01:08:54just let you
01:08:56stay here
01:08:58you know
01:08:58it wouldn't
01:08:59have mattered
01:09:00I think
01:09:01it would
01:09:01have
01:09:01I don't
01:09:04think you
01:09:04even had
01:09:05her on
01:09:05your mind
01:09:06at that
01:09:06point
01:09:07I mean
01:09:07I mean
01:09:09every day
01:09:10for the
01:09:11last
01:09:1212 years
01:09:15I never
01:09:15heard you
01:09:16mention
01:09:16her name
01:09:17once
01:09:18so we
01:09:19could have
01:09:19got you
01:09:19help or
01:09:21counseling
01:09:22or something
01:09:23we could have
01:09:23worked through
01:09:24all this
01:09:25could have
01:09:25been a whole
01:09:26different path
01:09:27than this
01:09:27path
01:09:40he's so
01:09:41far gone
01:09:41so far
01:09:42obsessed
01:09:42with her
01:09:43that
01:09:43I believe
01:09:44if he had
01:09:45the opportunity
01:09:46he would
01:09:46do something
01:09:47again
01:09:52we do
01:09:53have to
01:09:53always be
01:09:54prepared
01:09:54for trial
01:09:55but
01:09:56we knew
01:09:57that there
01:09:57was a
01:09:58potential
01:09:58for a
01:09:58plea
01:09:58bargain
01:09:59in this
01:09:59case
01:10:01so
01:10:02we get
01:10:02a call
01:10:02from
01:10:02Jesse
01:10:03Christopher's

01:10:05we started
01:10:06talking about
01:10:06what those
01:10:07pleas would
01:10:07look like

01:10:09Jesse
01:10:09came back
01:10:10a few
01:10:10days later
01:10:11and said
01:10:12he's not

01:10:13to admit
01:10:13that he
01:10:14raped her
01:10:14he says
01:10:15it was
01:10:15consensual
01:10:18despite
01:10:18his
01:10:19attorney's
01:10:20attempts
01:10:21to
01:10:22explain
