00:01In the late 1980s, Virginia was struck by a cruel killer.
00:06It was unstoppable, horrible, extreme.
00:12We weren't dealing with just any killer.
00:14His violent campaign spreads terror.
00:17If you don't feel safe, just nail the windows shut.
00:21This place was scary.
00:24His murders, slow and sadistic.
00:26While he was strangling her, he would squeeze her, release her, make her recover and then continue doing it again.
00:34Who is behind these heinous crimes?
00:37The important thing from a sadistic point of view is that he had total control over the victim.
00:43He was bad.
00:45This perverse murderer was born to kill.
01:18Richmond is a kind of miniature city.
01:25A mix of more or less well-off people.
01:30By the late 1980s, Richmond's more troubled neighborhoods cast a shadow over its wealthier areas.
01:38Richmond was a quiet southern town.
01:42The only crimes we heard about were at the hands of some gang,
01:47places in the city frequented only by bad people.
01:52The quiet Southside neighborhood is a kind of little paradise.
01:57The houses are old, large and made of bricks.
02:02It's a really nice place.
02:06But in September 1987, Richmond Detective Ray Williams,
02:12receives a call that shatters the serenity of the area.
02:17It was ten o'clock on a Saturday morning.
02:19There was a dead body, a somewhat unusual situation, a strangulation.
02:26It must have been someone the victim knew.
02:31to be strangled.
02:33I immediately thought of a colleague or a boyfriend.
02:39The detective's initial hypotheses, however, turn out to be wrong.
02:43As soon as he sets foot in the apartment.
02:49The first thing I said to myself was
02:52“Oh no, I've never seen anything like this before.”
02:55and I understood that this was a special case.
03:00Some elements have emerged
03:03which made us think that there was something underneath
03:07a sort of ritual.
03:10She was lying on the bed,
03:12with the upper torso protruding out.
03:16He had one hand tied behind his back
03:18and the other in front.
03:20They were held together with shoelaces
03:23placed in such a way that if he had pulled
03:25would have tightened the grip even more.
03:27He had wrapped two socks around her neck
03:29with a vacuum cleaner hose
03:3140 centimeters twisted in socks.
03:35The victim, even though she had been sexually abused,
03:39she had been dressed after the attack.
03:43There was a large amount
03:44of uncontaminated seminal fluid
03:48which could only come from
03:50from masturbation.
03:53The victim of the terrible gesture
03:55It's 35-year-old Debbie Davis,
03:58accountant of a magazine.
04:00Debbie kept me in charge of the accounts
04:02she had been married for a short time,
04:05then she got divorced.
04:06She had a sweet smile,
04:08engaging, friendly.
04:12Ray Williams and Glenn Williams
04:14they knocked on my door
04:16to tell me that she had been killed
04:17the night before.
04:20I almost fainted,
04:22I would never have imagined
04:23that something like this
04:26could happen to a friend of mine.
04:28That woman so sweet
04:30he could have no enemies.
04:36Faced with a murder
04:38apparently unmotivated,
04:39investigators are looking for
04:41to reconstruct the movements
04:42of the murderer.
04:44Of course we scouted
04:46the area right behind
04:47these bushes.
04:51The access point
04:53of the intruder
04:53in Debbie's apartment
04:55it is immediately evident.
04:58We noticed
04:59that under the window
05:00of the kitchen
05:01there was a rocking chair.
05:03The man placed it here,
05:05he cut the mosquito net
05:06and he broke into the house.
05:09This suggested to me
05:10one specific thing.
05:11It was about
05:12of an able person
05:14and very strong.
05:15As you can see,
05:17this is the exact point.
05:18The rocking chair
05:19it arrives more or less
05:20at this height.
05:20so it had to be
05:22strong enough
05:23to be lifted
05:24and enter
05:24from that window.
05:25I thought
05:26that he was an athletic type
05:28to do something like that.
05:29Our hypothesis
05:31is that once you enter
05:33I waited
05:34for her to come back home.
05:39The attacker occupies the time
05:41preparing to attack.
05:44He used the objects
05:46that he found at home
05:47without taking anything with you.
05:48The use it makes
05:50of the tourniquet
05:51artisanal
05:52he's really sadistic.
05:55He raped
05:56then he strangled her
05:57and waited
05:58that he regained consciousness
05:59to do it again
06:00repeating this process
06:02several times.
06:04When they emerged
06:05the details
06:06and we discovered
06:08how he had acted
06:09it was really terrible.
06:13He did it to her
06:14terrible things.
06:16He tortured her
06:17strangled
06:18she is tortured again
06:19until he saw her dead.
06:21It was like crushing
06:22a little bird.
06:23It's absurd.
06:27When the detectives
06:29they are scouting
06:29the macabre scene
06:30of the crime
06:31they understand that they have
06:32what to do
06:33with a meticulous opponent.
06:35When I received
06:36the results
06:37of the scientific
06:38there was no hair,
06:39fibers,
06:39physical evidence,
06:40nothing at all.
06:41Not even a witness
06:42or someone
06:43that he talked about it.
06:43the police
06:45it didn't work out
06:46to understand
06:46as if they were connected
06:48victim and murderer.
06:50Usually
06:51it is discovered immediately
06:52but not this time
06:54Unfortunately.
06:55The man was
06:56daredevil
06:57to enter the house
06:58and do things
07:00what he did
07:01even knowing
07:02that there were
07:03of the neighbors
07:03and no one
07:04he heard nothing.
07:06The citizens
07:06of the Southside
07:07they are shocked
07:08from the brutal murder
07:09but the silent one
07:10murderer
07:11he's already planning
07:12to terrorize
07:13again
07:14the neighborhood.
07:17In September
07:18of 1987
07:19the Southside
07:20of Richmond
07:21in Virginia
07:22it's theater
07:23of a horrible
07:23homocide
07:24accomplished
07:24from a sadist
07:25murderer.
07:26The 35-year-old
07:27Debbie Davis
07:28she is strangled
07:29at home
07:30after a long
07:31and perverse
07:31aggression.
07:33The police
07:34he's struggling
07:35in search
07:35of a track
07:36and two weeks
07:37After
07:37the detective
07:38Ray Williams
07:39it's still
07:40called
07:40in the Pacific
07:41Southside.
07:45A neighborhood
07:46Calm
07:46they feel
07:47the little birds
07:48bourgeois
07:48with beautiful houses
07:49and few crimes
07:51even thefts
07:52and robberies
07:53I am very
07:54very rare.
08:00The first
08:01impression
08:02of the house
08:02of the doctor
08:03Susan Ellams
08:04does not reveal
08:05what is hidden
08:05within.
08:06No sign
08:07of burglary
08:08at the entrance
08:08I headed there
08:09in the kitchen
08:10and I didn't see
08:11nothing unusual.
08:14The police
08:15he arrives
08:15after the macabre
08:16discovery
08:17by
08:17of the husband
08:18of the woman
08:18and back
08:19At home
08:19after having
08:20worked
08:20until late.
08:22I went
08:23above
08:24the bed
08:24it was undone
08:25and the sheets
08:27in disarray.
08:28The doors
08:29of the cabin
08:30Wardrobe
08:30they were open
08:32and I saw
08:34the hips
08:34and the legs
08:35that flowed out
08:37out
08:37yes outside.
08:39The doctor
08:41Susan Ellams
08:41neurosurgeon
08:43at the polyclinic
08:44of Virginia
08:44it was found
08:46Like this
08:46besides being
08:48was attacked
08:49sexually
08:50like Debbie Davis
08:51it was also
08:52beaten
08:53wildly.
08:56We didn't have
08:57what to do
08:58with a murderer
08:59anyone
08:59but with a
09:00personality
09:00very particular.
09:02It was clear
09:03That
09:04the killer
09:05had it
09:06somehow
09:07surprise.
09:10It had to be
09:10entered the house
09:12from a window
09:14open.
09:15The person in charge
09:17demonstrates
09:17an exceptional
09:18agility.
09:20It has arrived
09:21he jumped over
09:22the fence
09:22up to the second floor
09:23he cut
09:24the mosquito net
09:25and he climbed up
09:26in.
09:27Probably
09:28when she
09:28she arrived home
09:29it was hidden
09:30in the closet
09:31and left
09:32remove
09:32the earrings
09:33the clock
09:34he waited
09:35that he put them
09:35okay
09:36then he attacked her.
09:38One of the murders
09:39more brutal
09:39that I have ever seen.
09:42As for the murder
09:43by Debbie Davis
09:44two weeks ago
09:45the killer
09:46covers meticulously
09:48his tracks.
09:49He didn't leave
09:50Nothing
09:50nor a footprint
09:51not a hair.
09:53nothing that could
09:54to lead back
09:56to the person in charge.
09:58The only thing
09:59remained
10:00era
10:01the secretion
10:02seminal.
10:04The investigators
10:06they are horrified
10:06in learning
10:07of sadistic use
10:08of a noose
10:09hemostatic
10:09artisanal.
10:11Because
10:11some red dots
10:12near the eyes
10:13the doctor
10:15Forensic
10:15he supposed
10:16that the strangulation
10:17had lasted
10:17over 20 minutes.
10:19in practice
10:21the man
10:22continued
10:23for a long time
10:24he was holding her tight
10:25he freed her
10:27he made her recover
10:29for then
10:30continue
10:30to do it again.
10:33The thing
10:34important
10:35from the point of view
10:37of sadism
10:38is that he had
10:39the total
10:39check
10:40of the victim
10:41let her die
10:42slowly
10:43and with suffering
10:45make it
10:46aware
10:47that his life
10:48it depended
10:49from him
10:50it excited him
10:51so much
10:52to be extended
10:54that agony
10:54in a way
10:55to be able to
10:56satisfy.
10:59The singularity
11:00sadistic traits
11:01detected
11:02in both
11:02the murders
11:03of the Southside
11:04bring the police
11:05to a cruel one
11:06conclusion.
11:07We knew
11:08that was
11:08something happening.
11:10The rituals
11:11and the alterations
11:12of the scene
11:12of the crime
11:13they were identical
11:14in both cases
11:15that's how we understood
11:16that we were
11:17looking for
11:18the same person.
11:19Who had
11:20killed
11:21Debbie Davis
11:22had killed
11:22her too.
11:24The city
11:24then she came in
11:25in panic.
11:31When was it
11:32identified
11:33like murder
11:34serial
11:34in Richmond
11:35it has changed
11:36All.
11:38A Forest
11:39East Avenue
11:40all the lights
11:41they remained lit
11:42all the doors
11:43lockouts
11:43all the bolts
11:44Messi
11:45the hardware stores
11:46they had them
11:46all sold.
11:49To women
11:50it was said
11:51if you don't feel like it
11:53safe
11:53nailed
11:55the windows too.
11:56This place
11:57he was doing
11:58saura.
12:02At this point
12:03the police
12:04he is addressing
12:04to the FBI
12:05to draw up
12:06a profile
12:06of the murderer
12:07known by now
12:08as
12:08the strangler
12:09of the Southside.
12:11sincerely
12:12we thought
12:12that it was
12:14of a man
12:14white
12:15in his 30s
12:16who lived
12:17in that area.
12:20Intelligent
12:21maybe a type
12:22solitary
12:23he didn't speak
12:24of his crimes
12:25and it was turning
12:25at night.
12:28Of course
12:29he had it
12:30already done
12:30we didn't know
12:32if in Virginia
12:32or in some
12:33another place
12:34of the United States
12:35he couldn't
12:36to be certain
12:37a beginner
12:38who had
12:39done everything
12:39This
12:40I had
12:40a certain
12:41experience.
12:44As it unfolds
12:45of the investigations
12:46a clue emerges
12:47the victims
12:48I am involuntarily
12:49connected.
12:51Debbie Davis
12:52he worked
12:53as a sales assistant
12:53in a bookstore
12:54of the shopping center
12:56we put
12:58hand
12:58to the registers
12:59and so
13:01we discovered
13:02that the doctor
13:03Susan Ellams
13:04had purchased
13:05a book
13:06in that shop
13:07paying for it
13:08own
13:08to Debbie Davis
13:09with a check

15:36he was guiding me
15:37always keeping
15:38his hands
15:38on the saddle
15:39at a certain point
15:41I'm finished
15:42against a car
15:45I remember
15:45what he told me
15:46you don't have to look at me
15:48you have to keep your eyes open
15:49on the road
15:50for me it was really
15:52a brother
15:53loving
15:54even if he's a boy
15:56silent
15:57Spencer
15:57stands out throughout the neighborhood
15:59it was very nice
16:00my brother
16:02it was a blast
16:03when he passed by
16:05people were stunned
16:06as beautiful as it was
16:08they were hazel eyes
16:10which made it unique
16:11they changed depending on the weather
16:13he was always silent
16:15with other people
16:16but when we were together
16:17we talked and laughed
16:19like brothers do
16:23we told each other things
16:25he was my big brother
16:27when a person
16:30gets noticed
16:31to be particularly
16:33attractive
16:34and the people
16:35the trade
16:36as if
16:38it was special
16:40above all
16:40if it is already
16:42quite narcissistic
16:43he believes
16:44that they can
16:45to be granted
16:46certain behaviors
16:47but if this
16:48it doesn't happen
16:49it is possible
16:50that he gets angry
16:52Spencer looks for
16:53more and more
16:54to conform
16:55and his behavior
16:57it gets worse
16:57during the school term
17:00he was a student
17:02mediocre
17:02with some difficulties
17:04maybe he was smart
17:06but at school
17:08he didn't try very hard
17:09at the age of 12
17:12it happened
17:13that he urinated
17:14or defecated
17:15in public areas

19:34to the scene
19:35of the crime
19:36something
19:36that puts
19:37in evidence
19:38the crime
19:38that he makes them
19:39feel
19:40even more powerful
19:41alone
19:42think about the fact
19:45the previous cases
19:47they bring
19:47the profilers
19:48of the FBI
19:49to believe
19:50which statistically
19:51the person in charge
19:52be a white man
19:52but a discovery
19:54on the scene
19:55of the crime
19:55demonstrates
19:56something different
19:57the man
19:58he left
19:59a hat
19:59within
20:00some sheets
20:01rolled up
20:02the hat

20:09while the detectives
20:10they start working
20:11on the long-awaited
20:13track
20:13they don't know

20:35in addition to seminal fluid
20:37the evidence left behind
20:38at the crime scene
20:39there are very few
20:40but the investigators
20:41they are able to establish
20:42a connection
20:43among the victims
20:44all attended
20:46the shopping center
20:47Cloverleaf
20:48Diane Cho
20:49he lived for less
20:50of a kilometer
20:50from here
20:51Debbie Davis
20:52he worked in a bookshop
20:53and Susan Ellamas
20:54he came to go shopping with us
20:56the Cloverleaf
20:58it's still
20:58a famous meeting place
20:59for the 25 year old
21:00Timothy Spencer
21:03this boy
21:05solitary
21:05and thoughtful
21:06has a lot
21:07something to think about
21:08looking at the world
21:09that flows in front of him
21:11as early as nine years old
21:12he started
21:13to put yourself
21:14in trouble
21:15several times
21:18he started early
21:20and never stopped
21:23Travis Spencer
21:24remember how
21:25the behavior
21:26of his brother
21:27it got worse
21:28on the streets
21:28of the city of Arlington
21:29there were several boys
21:32that terrorized
21:33the neighborhood
21:34and he was one of them
21:39if stealing was
21:40a sport
21:41he would have been
21:42number one
21:43if they had told me
21:44he stole your studs
21:46I would have believed it
21:47if they had told me
21:48he stole your eyebrows
21:50I would have believed
21:51even to that
21:52the only experience
21:54that I had had
21:55with him
21:56it was a theft
21:57of when it was
21:58still a minor
21:59I had to ask
22:01to his mother
22:02the permission
22:03to take him
22:03the footprints
22:05I thought
22:06that to make me accepted
22:07I should be
22:08like him
22:08Me too
22:11with a friend of mine
22:12I went
22:13in a shop
22:14and we stole
22:15some sweets
22:16the owner
22:17it came out
22:18from the counter
22:19and he told us
22:19stop thieves
22:20so it arrived
22:21the police
22:22and brought us back
22:23At home
22:24when my mother
22:25she arrived at the door
22:26he saw that it was me
22:27and his face
22:28it has changed
22:29how to say
22:30No
22:32then my brother
22:33he came back home
22:34and I thought
22:35that we would have had
22:36something to share
22:38Instead
22:38he looked at me
22:39with serious eyes
22:40and he told me
22:41do not steal
22:43never again
22:44don't be like me
22:45Yes
22:46improve
22:47about me
22:49when Timothy Spencer
22:51turns 20
22:52his increasingly
22:53dense series of crimes
22:55leads to serious consequences
22:56the robbery
22:58so it's over
22:58in prison
22:59it didn't happen
23:00very far away
23:01from here
23:02in South Arlington
23:03at the border
23:04with the city
23:04from Alexandria
23:06he was arrested
23:08while he was looking
23:09to enter
23:09in a house
23:10he served
23:11the penalty
23:11for theft
23:12and defractions
23:14his period
23:15in prison
23:16it helped me
23:17to grow
23:19when I went
23:21to find it
23:21I was always crying
23:22I didn't understand
23:23the reason
23:23for which he was found
23:24there
23:26but when
23:27I became
23:28bigger
23:28I started
23:29to distinguish
23:31good from evil
23:32and if you do harm
23:33it's there
23:33that you finish
23:36if you finish
23:37in prison
23:38they can happen
23:39just two things
23:40or you become better
23:41or give in
23:42to the darkest side
23:45Spencer is released
23:46in 1987
23:48after three years
23:49of prison
23:49then it passes
23:51to a center
23:52of social reintegration
23:53distant
23:54from Arlington
23:54in Richmond
23:55in the neighborhood
23:56Southside
23:57his apartment
23:59that was it
23:59on the top floor
24:00on the left
24:02it's a house
24:04temporary
24:05for criminals
24:06non-violent
24:07here
24:07they are made
24:08to lodge
24:09in a way
24:09that they have
24:10a bit
24:10of time
24:11to get back into the swing of things
24:12in society
24:15while Spencer
24:16it fits
24:17to the new environment
24:18maintains
24:19the others
24:19of the house
24:19at a distance
24:20of safety
24:22he was a loner
24:24he didn't speak
24:24with no one
24:25he had no friends
24:26When
24:27when he ate
24:28he was putting himself
24:29at the end of the table
24:30and he didn't do it
24:31conversation
24:34However
24:34Spencer
24:35cultivate
24:35a relationship
24:36with a woman
24:37of the staff
24:39to be able to use
24:40the machine
24:40of the woman
24:41gives new opportunities
24:42to the shy one
24:43Timothy
24:43the only person
24:45with whom he spoke
24:46it was that woman
24:47but only
24:47to drive
24:48his car
24:49Spencer
24:50walk around the neighborhood
24:51and he goes
24:52at Cloverleaf
24:53in the nearby
24:53county
24:54of Chesterfield
24:55coming back a lot
24:56probably
24:57the morning after
24:59Usually
25:00in a center
25:01of reintegration
25:02you can go out
25:02to go to work
25:03but at night
25:04you have to come back
25:04you can't stay out
25:07but Spencer
25:08he doesn't play
25:08according to the rules
25:09they had to be
25:11controlled
25:11incoming
25:12and on the way out
25:12but that place
25:13it was not managed well
25:17Timothy Spencer
25:18keep turning
25:19on the streets
25:20at his pleasure
25:27while the inhabitants
25:28of Richmond
25:29continue to be
25:30tormented
25:31from the strangler
25:32of the Southside
25:33160 kilometers
25:34further north
25:35the city of Arlington
25:36it seems to be
25:37far away
25:38from the grip
25:38of the murderer
25:41here we are
25:42in South Arlington
25:43a beautiful one
25:44and quiet
25:45community
25:47it's very close
25:49in Washington
25:49I think that
25:51Richard Nixon
25:52lived here
25:54before becoming
25:55president
25:55it's a place
25:57very pleasant
25:58where to live
25:59with little crime
26:02as we get closer
26:03at the end of November
26:04the whole community
26:06he is preparing
26:06for the weekend
26:07of thanksgiving
26:08just like he does
26:10the editor
26:10of the local newspaper
26:11Susan Tucker
26:12Susan was
26:14a young woman
26:15professional
26:16from the build
26:17slender
26:19a bit
26:21silent
26:24very reserved
26:26he wouldn't have
26:27could have done
26:28of evil
26:28to a fly
26:32she was alone
26:33at home
26:34because her husband
26:35he was out
26:35for work
26:40in proximity
26:41of the weekend
26:41of thanksgiving
26:42the detectives
26:43of Arlington
26:44they are called
26:45at the address
26:46by Susan
26:46in the neighborhood
26:47of Fairlington
26:48me and Joe Orgas
26:49we were not on duty
26:51when we were called
26:52from the outside
26:53it was shown to us
26:54the possible point
26:55from which man
26:56he had entered
26:57a window
26:58of the basement
27:00below
27:02of those railings
27:02iron
27:03there was
27:03a small window
27:05used
27:06to ventilate
27:06the laundry
27:07or the area
27:09of the basement
27:11at home
27:12everything was
27:13been ransacked
27:14on the ground
27:15at the base
27:16of the ladder
27:16was
27:17found
27:18a handbag
27:19emptied
27:19of its content
27:22as soon as the detectives
27:23they arrive on the first floor
27:25they are located in front
27:26to a scene
27:27unforgettable
27:28Susan Tucker
27:29she was lying naked
27:31on the bed
27:32with your hands
27:34tied behind
27:35on the back
27:36and a rope
27:38that passed to her
27:38from the arms
27:39to the legs
27:40up to the neck
27:41she died
27:42by strangulation
27:43caused by the rope
27:44the body
27:46of Mrs. Tucker
27:47Unfortunately
27:48it was found
27:48after several days
27:50which
27:50made the scene
27:51of the crime
27:52even more unpleasant
27:54a scene
27:55terrible
27:56tremendous
27:57the thing
27:58what I remember
27:59moreover
28:00And
28:01the smell
28:03horrible
28:03that there was
28:04at home
28:06the tragic scene
28:08reveals
28:09another
28:09macabre element
28:10of the aggression
28:13was
28:15found
28:16an incredible
28:17amount
28:18of sperm
28:19on
28:20a blanket
28:21This
28:23leads to believe
28:25that while
28:26he killed her
28:27probably
28:28he was
28:29masturbating
28:32the macabre
28:33homocide
28:34he doesn't have
28:34witnesses
28:35but nature
28:36sadistic
28:37of strangulation
28:38pushes them
28:39investigators
28:39to watch
28:40in the past
28:41given that
28:42in Arlington
28:43were happening
28:44so few
28:44murders
28:45and again
28:46less
28:47of that
28:47type
28:50as soon as
28:50they saw
28:51the corpse
28:52bound
28:53in that
28:53way
28:53the detectives
28:56they couldn't
28:57do without
28:58to rethink
28:59to the murder
29:00Of
29:00Caroline
29:01ham
29:02happened
29:03three years
29:04Before
29:06it's already there
29:07a person
29:07that is
29:08discounting
29:08the penalty
29:09for the murder
29:09Of
29:09Caroline
29:10nevertheless
29:11the similarities
29:12between the two
29:12crimes
29:13I'm like that
29:13difficult
29:14to be ignored
29:15that the detectives
29:15they begin to wonder
29:17if it was
29:17convicted
29:18the right man
29:19Caroline Ham
29:20it was found
29:22with a rope
29:22tied around the neck
29:24and fixed
29:25to the bumper
29:25of a machine
29:26she was tied up
29:28with both
29:28the hands
29:29behind the back
29:31the investigators
29:32they remember
29:33also a series
29:34unresolved
29:34of assaults
29:35in the background
29:35sexual
29:36which present
29:37the same
29:37sadistic traits
29:38found
29:39in the murders
29:39by Caroline
29:40and susan
29:41it was known
29:43that in the area
29:44one was turning
29:45rapist
29:46what he was doing
29:47raid
29:48in the houses
29:49they called him
29:50the rapist
29:52black
29:53masked
29:54era
29:56unstoppable
29:57he was standing there
29:59at home
29:59with some ropes
30:01pending
30:02that a woman
30:03he returned
30:04must be
30:05one of the things
30:06scarier
30:07that they can be
30:08imagine
30:10even the unit
30:12of analysis
30:12behavioral
30:14of the FBI
30:14he agreed
30:16with me
30:16that the rapist
30:18black
30:18could be
30:19my killer
30:20those men
30:22they provided me
30:23of the information
30:24fundamentals
30:25that is to say
30:26that when
30:26the first girl
30:27she was raped
30:28the person in charge
30:29he brought it
30:30from one place
30:31or another
30:31it was likely
30:33that he lived
30:33in the area
30:34and that he had it
30:35flow rate
30:36in a place
30:37in which he felt
30:38more peaceful
30:39they go away
30:41in safe areas
30:42Why
30:43they try to act
30:44in a way
30:44not to be
30:45discovered
30:46they know well
30:47the streets
30:48which ones are
30:49the patrols
30:49that turn
30:50they have the information
30:52of the buildings
30:53where they enter
30:54in addition to knowing
30:55the person
30:55which follow
30:56and that they find
30:57more vulnerable
30:58around their
31:00dwelling
31:01there is a sort
31:02of the area
31:04bearing
31:06the detectives
31:08of Arlington
31:08they want to tighten
31:09the grip
31:10and they draw up
31:10a list
31:11of possible
31:11suspicions

31:14that tormented me
31:15for 5 or 6 years
31:16a man

31:58of reintegration
31:59in Richmond
32:01we started
32:03then to collaborate
32:04with Arlington
32:05and so we have
32:06put together
32:06all the pieces
32:08we met
32:09the detective
32:10Ray Williams
32:11very soon
32:13it is believed
32:13that Spencer
32:14could be
32:15the person in charge
32:15of a series
32:16of rapes
32:17and of the murder
32:18by Caroline Hamm
32:21the detectives
32:22of Arlington
32:23and Richmond
32:23they discover
32:24of the shocking ones
32:25similarities
32:26among the murders
32:27most recent
32:27of the two neighborhoods
32:28even the movements
32:30by Timothy Spencer
32:31they are impossible
32:33to be ignored
32:33we checked
32:35the sheets
32:35exit
32:36of the center
32:37of reintegration
32:38at every exit
32:39corresponded
32:40a murder
32:41not only
32:43they coincided
32:44the release days
32:45with the murders
32:46of Richmond
32:46but Spencer
32:47he also had
32:48obtained
32:49a permit
32:49to come
32:50in Arlington
32:51for the weekend
32:52in which it was
32:53killed
32:54Susan Tucker
32:57when the detectives
32:58they dig
32:59in the past
33:00by Timothy Spencer
33:01they discover
33:02a disturbing one
33:02behavioral pattern
33:04the key point
33:06emerged
33:06from the profile
33:07of the FBI
33:08was
33:09the arson
33:12in any case
33:13indicated
33:14what he was doing
33:15a sort
33:16of escalation
33:18he started
33:20with the entry
33:20in homes
33:21then to enter it
33:22and to defecate
33:23and hand by hand
33:24the mode
33:25it kept growing bigger and bigger
33:27there is evidence
33:28who was entering
33:28secretly
33:29in a house
33:29and stole their things
33:31then he waited
33:32that a woman
33:32he returned home
33:35Often
33:35who becomes
33:36a rapist
33:37start
33:38with the thefts
33:39for sexual purposes
33:40it's a sort of
33:43of experiment
33:43to see
33:45if he can
33:46to pass it
33:46smooth
33:47if you see
33:49that he likes
33:50pass
33:51to annoy
33:52the person
33:53Usually
33:55with
33:55harassment
33:56or rapes
33:58that can
33:59bring
34:00to torture
34:01sexual abuse
34:02or murder
34:05having established
34:06a painting
34:06more complete
34:07of the suspect
34:08the police
34:09decides to go
34:10to withdraw
34:11thicker
34:11when he arrived
34:13we were on the street
34:14out of the center
34:15of reintegration
34:16we entered
34:18we have it
34:19handcuffed
34:19and taken to the station
34:20I questioned him
34:22for 12 hours
34:23but he never spoke
34:24he just said
34:25I don't know what you're talking about
34:31he spoke well
34:32without jargon
34:33on the street
34:35at times
34:35I asked myself
34:36we really have
34:37taken
34:38the right man
34:38but for the rest
34:41of the time
34:41I was almost sure of it
34:45the horrible crimes
34:46they were brought
34:47at term
34:48from a murderer
34:49careful
34:49and calculator
34:50but with a number
34:51so limited
34:52of evidence
34:53there is a risk
34:54that Timothy Spencer
34:55may he return free
35:00afterwards
35:01to a series
35:01of murders
35:02sexually oriented
35:03in Virginia
35:03the police
35:04of Arlington
35:05and Richmond
35:05join forces
35:07to arrest
35:08Timothy Spencer
35:08in the center
35:09of social reintegration
35:11the case
35:11of the detectives
35:12it is based
35:12on circumstantial evidence
35:13but a recent one
35:14progress
35:15of medicine
35:16forensic
35:16provides an opportunity
35:17unprecedented
35:18as far as I know
35:20it was the first
35:21murder case
35:22of the United States
35:23with the proof
35:24of DNA
35:27even if the police
35:28has to do with
35:29with a meticulous
35:29opponent
35:30hopes to find
35:31a correspondence
35:32among the champion
35:33of blood
35:33by Spencer
35:34and the liquid
35:35seminal
35:35found at the scene
35:36of the crime
35:38as soon as we have it
35:39arrested
35:40we checked
35:41his DNA
35:42we were all
35:43on thorns
35:44and we waited
35:45impatient
35:46the arrival
35:46of the results
35:47at the time
35:48it was needed
35:49a few weeks
35:50we were
35:51everyone waiting
35:53if it wasn't there
35:54it was a feedback
35:55and Timothy Spencer
35:56it was a result
35:57innocent
35:57we would have been
35:58mocked
35:59from everyone
36:01but it corresponded
36:05corresponded
36:05to the case
36:06of Arlington
36:07and it coincided
36:08with
36:08two
36:09of the three
36:10crimes
36:11in Richmond
36:11Like this
36:13we had three
36:14cases
36:14with the proof
36:14of DNA
36:15we knew
36:16who was
36:17the person in charge
36:18but how would we have
36:19convinced
36:20the jury
36:22the police
36:23proceeds
36:24in building
36:25the case
36:25and continues
36:26to observe
36:27the movements
36:27by Spencer
36:28at Cloverleaf
36:29a place
36:30frequented
36:31from three
36:31of the victims
36:34it remained
36:36sitting
36:36for hours
36:36in the middle
36:37of the center
36:38commercial
36:39to stare
36:40women
36:40he was standing there
36:41there
36:41to look at them
36:42pass
36:42without ever
36:43buy
36:43Nothing
36:44as
36:45a chameleon
36:46he camouflaged himself
36:48and did not cause
36:49No problem
36:51it really was
36:52very meticulous
36:53in the choice
36:55of his victims
36:56once chosen
36:58a woman
36:58he followed her
36:59to see
36:59in which stores
37:00he was entering
37:01we succeeded
37:02to provide
37:03of the evidence
37:04which demonstrated
37:05that was that
37:06the place
37:07in which
37:08he chose
37:08his victims
37:11between July
37:121988
37:13and June
37:141989
37:15Spencer comes
37:16accused
37:16of rape
37:17and of the murder
37:18of four women
37:18of Arlington
37:19and Richmond
37:21even if involved
37:23in the murder
37:23by Caroline Hamm
37:24and in the series
37:25of rapes
37:26of Arlington
37:26the investigators
37:27they decide to prosecute him
37:29only
37:30for the crimes
37:30most recent
37:33he never gave me
37:34the impression
37:35to be disturbed
37:38from what he heard
37:40in the classroom
37:40he was standing there
37:42just sitting there
37:45the defendant
37:47he wakes up
37:47only when
37:48the accusation
37:49circulates
37:49the images
37:50of the terrible
37:51crime scenes
37:52he really wanted them
37:54see those photos
37:55the table
37:56of the defense
37:57was here
37:57and the jury
37:58there
37:59and he
37:59he leaned out
38:00in this way
38:01to see
38:02every photo
38:02I am against
38:05the death penalty
38:06but Timothy Spencer
38:08he was so evil
38:11that for nothing
38:12to the world
38:13I would have risked
38:14to make him come back
38:16on the streets
38:16he was bad
38:21Spencer is declared
38:22guilty
38:23of the murders
38:24of women
38:24of Richmond
38:25Debbie Davis
38:26Susan Ellams
38:27and Diane Cho
38:28in addition to that
38:29by Susan Tucker
38:30of Arlington
38:33the man who was
38:34was arrested
38:35for the murder
38:35by Caroline M
38:36he is acquitted
38:37and released
38:39when Spencer
38:40is put
38:40in the arm
38:41of death
38:41it remains to ask ourselves
38:43how did he do it
38:44this burglar
38:45and rapist
38:46serial
38:46to become
38:47the most sadistic
38:48of the assassins
38:49it was the part
38:50more difficult
38:51of all history
38:53one thing
38:54they are the thefts
38:58but I would never have
39:00imagined
39:00my brother
39:01capable
39:01to kill someone
39:05he was a person
39:06very angry
39:08with people
39:09he wanted to have
39:10the control
39:11on them
39:12for some reason
39:13he hated women
39:15it wasn't the part
39:16sexual
39:17the thing
39:18which gave him more
39:19satisfaction
39:20for some reason
39:22he accumulated anger
39:23towards
39:24of women
39:24and he manifested it
39:26torturing them
39:28torture
39:29is part of
39:30of anger
39:31who vented
39:32against his victims
39:34it's a kind
39:36of experiment
39:36to see
39:37how do they manage
39:38not to be discovered
39:39once taken
39:41a person
39:41and aware
39:42that cannot escape
39:44they try to prolong
39:45the feeling
39:46of power
39:47towards
39:48of the victim
39:51but what is there
39:52at the base
39:52of this fury
39:53perverse
39:54Timothy Spencer
39:56he was born to kill
39:59Perhaps
40:00there was some problem
40:02in his head
40:04and if someone
40:05he's sick
40:06there are cures
40:08the medicines
40:09the doctors
40:11I think my brother
40:13era
40:13without a doubt
40:15sick
40:17there is nothing
40:18of genetic
40:19that can
40:20to transform
40:21someone
40:22in a murderer
40:23in the background
40:24sexual
40:25but if it is also
40:26a predator
40:26psychopath
40:27At that time
40:28there are factors
40:30that are of interest
40:31areas of the brain
40:32that do not inhibit
40:34the assault
40:35and others
40:36in which
40:38the capacity
40:39to take
40:39moral decisions
40:41it is atrophied
40:42if the crime
40:44sexual
40:45it happens
40:46by the hand
40:46of a psychopath
40:47it is possible
40:48that that person
40:49you become
40:50a criminal
40:50aggressive
40:51I wouldn't say so
40:53that it was
40:54a murderer
40:55born
40:55but that one
40:56diverted
40:56excitement
40:57sexual
40:58it is definitely
40:59congenital
41:00and some
41:01events
41:01of childhood
41:03they could
41:04to have thrown
41:05the basics
41:05to do it
41:06vent
41:09Timothy Spencer
41:10he is executed
41:11at the correctional center
41:12of Greensville
41:13April 27th
41:141994
41:15they called me
41:17and they asked me
41:18if he wanted to go
41:19but I answered
41:19no
41:20I'm dealing with
41:21with death
41:21everyday
41:22and even if
41:23for the state
41:23it's legal
41:24it's always about
41:24of murder
41:25I'm not saying
41:26that he didn't deserve
41:27to die
41:27Why
41:28so he won't kill
41:29never again
41:29but
41:30but I'm not there yet
41:31convinced
41:32on the death penalty
41:34that day
41:35candle
41:36yes I was there
41:38for his
41:39last day
41:39on earth
41:40when they told us
41:41that we had
41:42two minutes
41:43to greet him
41:45stay there
41:46sitting
41:46with a person
41:47perfectly healthy
41:50in the end
41:51they had to
41:52divide us
41:57I remember
41:58that when
41:58he was executed
42:00it was a day
42:01very strange
42:02for me
42:02I didn't succeed
42:05to speak
42:05with no one
42:06all day
42:07I was carrying inside
42:08about me
42:08the memory
42:10of my friend
42:11for many
42:13the actions
42:13of this
42:13sadistic killer
42:14I'm simply
42:16a chapter
42:16of the past
42:18but for others
42:20the pain
42:21continues
42:22be able
42:24to do
42:24what he did
42:26kill
42:27in that way
42:28it was a real
42:30monster
42:30it was the incarnation
42:31of evil
42:32the person
42:33meaner
42:34to the world
42:34for sure
42:36it was the person
42:38worse
42:38that I have ever
42:39encountered
42:41in the 25 years
42:43that I have
42:44spent
42:45in
42:45that environment
42:48I'm there at night
42:50where I dream it
42:51and I would like
42:52hug him
42:53but he
42:55there is no
42:55there is no more
42:58I wake up
42:59And
42:59nine times
43:01out of ten
43:01I'm crying
43:03he did
43:04what he did
43:05there is no doubt
43:06and it can't be done
43:07cancel
43:09we are all
43:10victims
43:10life
43:11it goes on
43:12but
43:13it's a
43:14continues
43:15struggle
43:16I'm sure
43:17that also
43:17the families
43:18of the victims
43:19are fighting
43:20in this situation
43:22Nobody
43:23it comes out
43:24to win
