00:00This is 59-year-old Violet Rose.
00:02Violet is about to find out that she has been sleeping directly above a dead body for the past 25
00:09years.
00:10I was going to ask the obvious question.
00:12I was going to say, I assume we're here because you found something.
00:16May I ask where?
00:20Under one of the bedrooms.
00:22Hey, Violet.
00:23I'm not sleeping.
00:24Okay, Violet.
00:25Oh, that's okay.
00:26Hey, Violet.
00:27Violet in.
00:28You didn't know it.
00:30You trusted it.
00:31Okay?
00:32It's okay, Violet.
00:33It's okay.
00:34I'm sleeping.
00:34I understand, Violet.
00:36I understand.
00:38Oh, my God.
00:40Oh, my God.
00:41You're going to get through this.
00:42You're going to get through this.
00:43Oh, that's a shock.
00:46Perhaps what is even more shocking is how this body got there in the first place.
00:50He told me that she was at his house, and I guess they argued, and then he shot her.
00:56Did he say, what did he do with the body?
00:59He put her under the slab and wound the bedrooms.
01:02Who wound the body?
01:03Well, I understand this.
01:05Is Kimberly on the property?
01:06No.
01:07Is there any evidence of her murder on the property?
01:10It shouldn't be.
01:11No.
01:12Every step of this is just inhumane.
01:15All right, I say move.
01:16Boys, feet on the truck.
01:17Hands, hands, let me see your hands.
01:19Hands up.
01:21Hands up.
01:21It's insane.
01:22It's psychotic.
01:24That's what it is.
01:25Did you murder Kim?
01:26No.
01:3434-year-old Kimberly Langwell went missing in July of 1999.
01:39Vanished without a trace.
01:41Her purse and keys still inside the car.
01:43This case has captivated the public's interest.
01:46Sadly, for 25 years, Kimberly remained missing, and her family longed for answers.
01:52Until now.
01:53On July 9th, 1999, 34-year-old Kimberly Langwell went missing after finishing her shift at the
01:59Mobile Oil Refinery in Beaumont, Texas.
02:02Her car was later found seven miles away, abandoned in a mall parking lot.
02:07But the vehicle was squeaky clean.
02:09With no witnesses and a teenage daughter at home, the investigators found it highly unlikely
02:14that Kimberly had disappeared by her own free will.
02:17The Beaumont Police Department immediately started interviewing people that could have been involved
02:21in Kimberly's disappearance.
02:23But at the time, there wasn't enough evidence to arrest anyone.
02:27The case went cold for 24 years until being reopened in 2023 after a true crime TV show reignited
02:34law enforcement's interest in the case.
02:36They went through the suspect list from the original investigation and began interviewing
02:40them one by one.
02:42Bringing back some memories for you.
02:44It's been a long time.
02:51This is Frank McCormick.
02:54Frank was Kim's workplace supervisor back in 1999.
02:57Despite being a married man, Frank often showed up outside of Kim's house with fancy chocolates
03:02and handwritten love letters.
03:04But these romantic gestures quickly got out of hand.
03:07Frank became obsessed with Kim and his letters were getting more and more concerning.
03:11For example,
03:12Kim, I have developed this terribly strong crush on you.
03:16Something must be done about it.
03:17I can hardly work.
03:19It consumes all of my free time.
03:21Please help me to deal with this.
03:23Frank sent dozens of letters just like this.
03:26Since Kim had just left work before her disappearance, the investigators wondered if Frank had stalked
03:32and attacked her.
03:32However, Frank was not Kim's killer.
03:36Frank's alibi was that he had left work around 5pm to prepare for a poker night with his buddies.
03:41He went home and showered, then went to a grocery store to buy playing cards and snacks for the night.
03:46He then went back home around 7pm, right when people started showing up.
03:51He even had the receipts to prove this.
03:53It didn't take long for the detectives to cross Frank off their list and move on to their next suspect.
03:59This is Kim's ex-boyfriend, Terry Rose.
04:02Terry and Kim lived together for 5 years, from 1993 to 1998.
04:07They then broke up and Kim moved out.
04:09But they stayed in touch for the next year leading up to her disappearance.
04:13Despite this friendly relationship,
04:15Kim's family told the investigators that Terry was extremely controlling
04:19and he abused Kim, both emotionally and physically, during their relationship.
04:23He would also constantly keep track of Kim's whereabouts
04:26and bombard her friends with phone calls whenever she paid them a visit, even after their breakup.
04:31However, these obsessive phone calls suddenly came to a halt on the day that Kim disappeared.
04:37Kim's daughter Tiffany said that the last thing her mom told her was that she was going to Terry's house.
04:42She called me and she had just gotten off work, maybe around 5.30.
04:48She told me that we were, we had made plans that day that we were going to go out to
04:54eat.
04:54She told me that she was going to stop by Terry's, that she had to help him with something.
05:00I don't know.
05:01It was something about hanging a board or something.
05:04I didn't really pay attention to it.
05:06Terry told me he didn't know where she was.
05:08When Terry was questioned by the police, he said that Kim had stopped by his place after work
05:12to help him put up some 1x4s on the ceiling,
05:15and she stayed for a short time before leaving to pick up Tiffany.
05:19He later admitted to the authorities that he had no alibi after 5.30pm,
05:23up until he met up with his friend David Wiley a few hours later.
05:26They hung out playing pool until around midnight, before parting ways.
05:30They then got breakfast the next morning.
05:3325 years later, Terry was telling detectives the same story.
05:36What's your theory on what happened to her?
05:39I don't really know.
05:41Terry claimed that he and Kim were good friends right up to her disappearance,
05:44and he had no reason to harm her.
05:46He denied being obsessed and controlling following the breakup,
05:49and said that both of them had moved on by then.
05:53Once we broke it off, I figured just leave her alone.
05:56At this point, they didn't have any evidence to disprove Terry's story,
06:00so they went to speak with David Wiley.
06:02Mr. David.
06:03Yes, sir.
06:04How are you doing today?
06:05Good, how are you doing?
06:05He's doing great.
06:07Knowing Terry like he knew Terry,
06:09did he have anything to do with Kimberly's repair?
06:12I don't think so.
06:15Not at all, and I just don't think he's that type of person.
06:18David had nothing to say about Terry.
06:19He didn't know about Kim going to Terry's house,
06:22and had no clue what Terry was doing before they met up to play pool.
06:26However, the detectives struggled to believe anything either man was saying.
06:29They brought the case in front of a grand jury,
06:31and Terry and David were both summoned to testify under oath.
06:35During their testimony, they told their usual stories,
06:38but for some reason, David was extremely nervous.
06:41Seeing his behavior under oath, the detectives asked David to come in for a polygraph test.
06:46David refused.
06:47However, hours later, his attorney reached out to the detectives and told them he had information to share,
06:53but he wanted immunity.
06:55The detectives agreed, and David went to the police station for an audio-recorded interview.
07:00Our goal is you're here to tell the truth, okay?
07:03David said that on July 9, 1999, he had just finished work when he received a phone call from Terry.
07:10He called me and asked me to pick him up at Walmart.
07:15Probably between 5 and 6.
07:16He just said, when you get close to the parking lot, call me.
07:21I called.
07:22When I pulled up next to him, he was in Kim's car.
07:25He said that he did not like that parking lot, and to follow him.
07:29It's at the corner of Dowland and Phelan.
07:32There used to be an Eckerd's store there, and there's Market Basket and other businesses.
07:37So y'all left Walmart, and you followed him down to Colonnade?
07:40Turned into the Colonnade shopping center parking lot.
07:44He stopped in a spot, got out and got in my truck,
07:47and I took him and dropped him off at his house and went back to my little trailer I was
07:51living in.
07:52The two met up later that evening to play pool at the Corner Pocket,
07:56which was about 60 yards away from where they parked Kim's car.
07:59Did you ask him, why are you in the car?
08:01No, I did not ask.
08:03They eventually parted ways, and the next morning, they had breakfast together.
08:07Ate breakfast at Iron Skillet.
08:09Just kind of a normal conversation about plans for the day.
08:14It wasn't until later that week that Terry suddenly divulged the reason he was driving Kim's car.
08:20Sometime, it was either Friday night or the next day sometime,
08:24and he told me that she was at his house, and I guess they argued, and they shot her.
08:32The only thing he told me was the back of the head.
08:34I think I was too dumbfounded to ask anything else.
08:38And then after that, did he say what did he do with the body?
08:43He told me that he put her under the slab in one of the bedrooms.
08:52One of the bedrooms?
08:53I mean, is there which one?
08:55I believe he indicated it was the front bedroom closest to the street.
08:58The detectives asked him why he didn't report Terry's confession to the authorities immediately.
09:02I was shocked and astonished, didn't know what to think.
09:07I was afraid that I was involved in something that was going to have me in deep trouble.
09:13He said that after his grand jury testimony in 2024, he had a change of heart.
09:18After the day started going by, the thoughts just got too deep, too hard on me.
09:23I just couldn't put up with it anymore.
09:25I'm tired of being on my conscience.
09:27The more likely explanation for David coming forward was that he realized the detectives
09:32knew he was lying and preferred to work out a deal rather than being charged as an accomplice.
09:37Regardless, this interview was a huge breakthrough in the case.
09:40But before celebrating, they needed to make sure that David was being truthful with them.
09:44They started by asking David to do a polygraph test, which he agreed to.
09:49Did Terry tell you he shot Kelly?
09:51Yes.
09:52Did Terry tell you where he buried Kelly?
09:54Yes.
09:55Not only was David being completely cooperative, but he also passed the polygraph test with flying colors.
10:01They then invited Terry to the police station to discuss the death of his father,
10:05who, in a completely unrelated incident, was murdered in 2004.
10:10But after that decoy conversation was over, the detectives in Kim's case surprised him with a search warrant for his
10:16house.
10:16How are you doing? All right?
10:19Good, good.
10:19I'm lucky to remember me.
10:21You're amazing.
10:23I'm one of the guys that, uh, that I was, that I was working on, like, Kimberley and I'm well,
10:28okay.
10:29So, uh, it's been signed by the judge.
10:32I want you to understand what all it entails.
10:35Um, it's going to be a thorough search of the house, possibly under the house.
10:40So, if there is information that you want to tell us, is Kimberley on the property?
10:46No.
10:46Is there any evidence of her murder on the property?
10:50It shouldn't be.
10:52No.
10:54Did you murder Kim?
10:55No.
10:56So, is there any reason why we're going to find any kind of blood or evidence or remains or anything
11:03like that anywhere on your property, sir?
11:05No.
11:06I don't know what you want.
11:07We want the body.
11:09Well, I understand this.
11:10I don't have anything to tell you.
11:12Okay.
11:13We just want to give you that opportunity.
11:15Is this mine or?
11:16You can give it.
11:17That's your property.
11:17Yes, sir.
11:18Right after serving Terry these papers, they went to inform his wife, Violet, of what was going on.
11:24We have the search warrant to look for Kimberley Namwell all through the property.
11:30Okay.
11:30If there's anything that we need to know now before we begin, this is the time.
11:36I honestly can tell you I don't know anything about where she is or anything about that.
11:44So, y'all just do what you have to do.
11:46Well, if I had known this, I wouldn't wash the dishes.
11:49Don't worry about that.
11:52At this point, it wasn't clear if Violet actually knew something about Terry's involvement.
11:58However, the only way to know who was lying was to see what was under Terry's house.
12:02Terry and Violet were allowed to leave for now, and a hotel was booked for them to stay in.
12:06But while these interviews were taking place, officers had placed tracking devices on their vehicles.
12:12The next day, Beaumont PD and multiple other law enforcement agencies went to Terry's house and executed the search warrant.
12:19They used GPRs, ground penetrating radars, to scan each bedroom looking for any disturbances beneath the tiles.
12:26In Violet's bedroom, they discovered that the ground had been hollowed out.
12:30They observed an area in the front bedroom of the house that was, it appeared that it was missing a
12:35piece of rebar.
12:36So, that's kind of where we focused our search on.
12:39As they broke through the tiles, they realized that cinder blocks had been stacked underneath the floor in order to
12:44prevent the tiles from collapsing.
12:46They began removing the cinder blocks and sifting through the dirt, and they quickly uncovered several personal belongings.
12:52Within the first hour, we found a pair of broken sunglasses, a keychain, and a lighter were the first pieces
13:01of evidence that we found that were definitely out of place.
13:04We knew we were in the right area.
13:05It wasn't long before they started finding bones.
13:08They first located three small bones that we were able to verify were human toe bones.
13:14And then it took a couple more hours to kind of get to the main part of her remains, and
13:18she was wrapped in a blanket.
13:20And so luckily, it appeared that everything was in there, but that's when we found the further extent of the
13:26rest of the bones.
13:26The detectives were confident that these bones belonged to Kim, so they immediately filed a warrant for Terry's arrest.
13:32Using the tracker on his vehicle, they followed him to Tia Juanita's fish camp, where he was having lunch with
13:38Violet, and waited for him to exit the building.
14:01Terry was taken to the back of a police cruiser and transported to the station to speak with the detectives
14:06once again.
14:07We do have an arrest warrant for you, for the offensive murder.
14:11You don't want to talk?
14:12What can I say?
14:15Well, there's probably a lot to say.
14:17I mean, are you curious about what we have found or why we're here?
14:22You got what you want.
14:24I don't believe in any way.
14:26I'm not going to waste my breath.
14:28I mean, I'm interested in what you have to say.
14:30I really am.
14:30I will hear you out.
14:33The family, my baby.
14:35Do you have anything to say to Kim's family?
14:39No.
14:40With very little cooperation from Terry, he was transported to the county jail to await his arraignment hearing.
14:46Terry Rose, you're being charged with the murder of Kimberly Langwell.
14:49Do you have anything to say?
14:51Terry, tell us what happened that night in 1999.
14:54This could be your only chance to tell the public right now, right here.
14:57Do you have anything to say to Kimberly's family?
14:59Did you do it?
15:00Back inside the police station, Terry's family was still waiting for answers.
15:03So the detectives brought Violet and Terry's brother and sister into the interrogation room to break the news.
15:09I was going to ask the obvious question.
15:11I was going to say, I assume we're here because you found something.
15:15They found him?
15:15Yes.
15:16May I ask where?
15:19Under one of the bedrooms.
15:22Hey, Violet.
15:23I'm not sleeping.
15:24Okay, Violet.
15:25Violet, it's okay.
15:26Hey, Violet.
15:27Violet, man.
15:29You didn't know it.
15:30You trusted it.
15:31Okay?
15:31It's okay, Violet.
15:33It's okay.
15:34I'm sleeping there.
15:34I understand, Violet.
15:35I understand.
15:38Oh, my God.
15:39Oh, my God.
15:40You're going to get through this.
15:41You're going to get through this.
15:43Mm-hmm.
15:44Mm-hmm.
15:44You're going to get through this.
15:45I know.
15:46You're going to get through this.
15:47Okay.
15:47Okay.
15:48Okay.
15:48Okay.
15:50I'm sorry.
15:51Don't be.
15:52Don't be sorry.
15:53Oh, that's a shock.
15:55The excavation team back at Terry's house worked for 13 hours straight to make sure they had
16:00every last bit of remains.
16:02By the morning, they had recovered an entire human skeleton.
16:05All of the evidence was sent to the crime lab, and it was eventually confirmed through
16:09dental records that the remains did, in fact, belong to Kim.
16:12I'm so very grateful to have my mother back, not in the way that I wanted her, but to know
16:20that she's no longer being held is a good feeling.
16:25An autopsy revealed that a gunshot wound had penetrated the back of her skull, suggesting
16:30that Kim was killed execution style.
16:32Despite the overwhelming evidence against him, Terry pled not guilty.
16:36His bond was set at $1 million, a price he was unable to pay, so he remained in the county
16:42jail awaiting his trial.
16:43After several delays, his trial was set for December 8th, 2025, but before that date came
16:49in August, Terry was offered a plea deal.
16:52If he went to trial and was found guilty, his sentence would be anywhere from a minimum
16:56of five years to a maximum of 99 years in prison.
16:59This plea deal reduced that maximum sentence to 40 years, with the possibility of parole after
17:0520, in exchange for a guilty plea from Terry.
17:08And do you want to reject that offer and have your case set for trial?
17:11Yes, ma'am.
17:12Okay.
17:13Terry rejected this plea deal because he saw it as an insult.
17:16We know this, because following this hearing, he discussed it with his son, Terry Rose Jr.,
17:21over a jailhouse phone call.
17:23That 40-year offer was like an insult.
17:25I'm 68 years old.
17:2740 years, you had to do 20, so I'd be 88, and I'd go before the parole board, and you
17:34know
17:34a kid who's going to be there to say no, and then I've got to wait another six months
17:38and go again, possibly.
17:40You know, I'll be 90 years old before I get out, and then I've got to deal with parole for
17:47the rest of my life.
17:49Oh, no.
17:50Uh-uh.
17:50No, I'm sorry.
17:51I'm not accepting.
17:53Oh, man.
17:54They're shit in their 40s.
17:55They're behind their 40s and 50s all the time.
17:58That'd be sweet.
18:01Yeah, that'd be sweet.
18:02I'm going to pee in her cup, send it to y'all, to pour on her grave.
18:08I'll do that.
18:09You mean you're lying to the s*** for you?
18:11I'll fix it right up.
18:12Since you would have been honest and said, look, when I was out messing around on you,
18:16I could have just walked away, not had a problem, and now this s*** would have been a problem.
18:23But, no, she had to keep her run-off secrets.
18:25Terry must not have realized that this phone call was being recorded, because he just
18:30revealed what his motive was for killing Kim.
18:33Since you would have been honest and said, look, when I was out messing around on you,
18:37now this s*** would have been a problem.
18:38Clearly, Terry was lying when he said that he moved on following the breakup.
18:43Once we broke it all, I think it'd just leave her alone.
18:46Once the phone call with his son was submitted as evidence, Terry's defense team quickly changed
18:51their mind about the plea deal.
18:52One week before his trial, his attorneys reached out to the prosecutors and said that Terry was
18:57willing to plead guilty.
18:58The prosecutors offered the same conditions as before, a maximum of 40 years in prison
19:03with the possibility of parole after 20, in exchange for a guilty plea.
19:08And Terry agreed.
19:09You're charged with a first-degree felony offensive murder from July 9th of 1999,
19:14and how do you plead to that charge?
19:17Guilty.
19:18Are you pleading guilty because you did what they charged you with?
19:22Sorry.
19:23Yes.
19:23Yes.
19:24No, we're not playing.
19:26Hold on.
19:26You answer my question.
19:28Mr. Burbank, I'm not questioning you.
19:31Did you do what they charged you with in cause number 24, DCCR 1369?
19:38Yes.
19:38His sentencing hearing took place on December 16th, 2025.
19:42The prosecution wanted to make sure Terry would spend the rest of his life behind bars,
19:46and convincing the judge to hand down the 40-year maximum sentence would guarantee that.
19:51The first person they called to the stand was David Wiley.
19:55He told them all about the night Kim disappeared and the moment that Terry told him about the
19:59murder, before giving a half-apology to Kim's family.
20:03Is there something you want to say to Tiffany McInnes and her family?
20:06I wish that I came forward.
20:08Right when it happened.
20:09The defense tried to discredit David by suggesting that he only spoke up because he was worried
20:14about being charged as an accomplice.
20:16Back in 99, July of 99, how many times did the police come and talk to you?
20:21I think just once.
20:23Did you take part in trying to find Kim?
20:27No, I did not.
20:28You said at one time you were an employee of Terry, right?
20:33Yes.
20:34During that time, you would see him on a daily basis?
20:38Generally.
20:39Never said one thing to him saying, hey, man, you got to say something to somebody.
20:45No.
20:46Never did.
20:48Never went to the police?
20:50No.
20:50How many times did you talk to the police between the original time in 1999 and 2024
20:57when they came to your house just before Thanksgiving?
21:00None.
21:02You had a chance to tell them when they came to your door, right?
21:05Yes.
21:06I think it was two detectives, Detective Wilson and Detective Tamayo.
21:11Yes.
21:11You didn't tell them that?
21:12No.
21:14After that, you were called back into the grand jury, correct?
21:18Correct.
21:19And you could have told them then?
21:20Correct.
21:21However, David's intentions were irrelevant to the state's case.
21:25During the testimony of Detective Heather Wilson, they made it clear that David Wiley
21:28coming forward was the sole reason that Kim's remains were even discovered.
21:3325 years after she went missing, Kimberly Langwell's body was discovered under Terry Rose's house.
21:39Is that correct?
21:39That's correct.
21:40Yes, sir.
21:40With a gunshot wound to the back of her skull, consistent with what David Wiley said Terry
21:48Rose told him he did.
21:49Yes.
21:50Shot her in the back of the head.
21:51That's correct.
21:51Yes.
21:52This showed that regardless of David being complicit in the cover-up of Kim's murder,
21:56he was still hands down a credible witness.
21:59The bottom line was that Terry was the one being sentenced, so the state focused on his
22:04culpability and his actions following the murder.
22:06At any point in your investigation, has Terry Rose ever indicated he knew what happened to
22:11Kimberly Langwell?
22:12No, he did not. We had interviewed him several times and he indicated that he did not know
22:18where she was.
22:19In all this investigation, has there been any evidence to suggest this could have been an
22:24accident or unintentional act?
22:27No, sir.
22:28Well, the wound in the back of the head is pretty telling, isn't it?
22:30It is. Yes.
22:32Hiding a body under your home for 25 years and lying about it.
22:36What does that indicate to you?
22:38Yeah. I mean, it was a massive cover-up for sure.
22:41Obviously, Terry's actions had a profound effect on Kim's daughter, Tiffany, who was
22:45just 15 years old at the time of her mom's disappearance.
22:49Can you explain to the court what those first few days were like, not knowing where your mom
22:54was or what had happened to her?
22:57Um, it was terrifying.
23:00It, uh, it was shocking because I had just talked to her.
23:06She was just on the phone with me and she was excited for our plans.
23:13She was joking with me.
23:14And so I was lost.
23:17I didn't know what to think.
23:2015, my mom is the person that I go to for everything.
23:24No siblings. It's just been her and I.
23:26Yeah. So, um, lost. Very lost.
23:30You know, the first year, I think I threw myself into anything I could to try, um, to
23:37get through life, to not think about the fact that she wasn't there, but then you go home
23:43and you don't go home to your mom anymore.
23:46And so life is different. It looks very different.
23:49During this terrible chapter of Tiffany's life, Terry did very little to help find Kim,
23:54but he did do one thing.
23:55Was there physical searching going on? People looking for her?
23:59Yes.
23:59Were there billboards?
24:01Um, there was a billboard.
24:02Do you know who put that billboard up?
24:04Terry Rose did.
24:05Terry Rose put up a billboard to help find your mom?
24:09Yeah.
24:09To find my mom when he knew where she was at.
24:13Uh, they recovered her, her remains and, and did the testing and the DNA testing and said,
24:19yes, we know this is Kimberly Langwell.
24:21Were y'all finally able to lay her to rest?
24:23Yes, sir, we were.
24:25I would like him sentenced to at least 40 years.
24:29I think he deserves that.
24:31If one piece of evidence was going to convince the judge to give Terry 40 years,
24:35it was the state's exhibit number one, the jailhouse phone call with his son.
24:40You know, I'm not like a, uh, psychopath, sociopath, crazy, you know, I'm not none of that.
24:45I'm just, I had a bad day, I dealt with it wrong, I fucked up, and yeah, I'm gonna deal
24:50with it.
24:51She's in her 40s, people die in her 40s and 50s all the time.
24:56That'd be sweet.
24:57I mean, yeah, that'd be sweet.
25:00I will pee in her cup, send it to y'all, to pour on her grape.
25:05I'll do that.
25:06The defense claimed that Terry's comment about not being a psychopath was true,
25:11citing that this was the only crime he had ever committed.
25:14You have a gentleman here, though, unlike a lot of other cases that you see before this court,
25:20that has no record.
25:21He has gone 68 years, and there is no record.
25:25But you have an individual, uh, that has not been in trouble, that has been employed,
25:31except he kept a secret.
25:33And he kept a secret to the detriment of a family that was grieving at the time,
25:40uh, and wanted to know where their loved one was, especially a 15-year-old girl.
25:44And that he can't erase.
25:46They also said that Terry's offensive comments about Tiffany were a result of the pending civil
25:51suit that Kim's family had filed against him.
25:53But the state set the record straight, saying that Terry's comments in the phone call
25:57clearly had nothing to do with the civil suit.
26:00The phone call you heard, Judge, was him talking about how it greatly inconvenienced his life
26:05to have to deal with the parole board, should he ever make it that far.
26:10And that, no doubt, Tiffany McGinnis would tell the parole board not to let him out early.
26:15That's what he's complaining about.
26:16And his son, who's the other end of that phone call, mentions,
26:19well, maybe something will happen and she'll, she'll die.
26:21She's in her 40s.
26:22And his response to that is, I would gladly pee on her grave, Your Honor.
26:27And the reason I play that, this man has no remorse.
26:33No feeling whatsoever for what he did to Tiffany's mother and what he's done to this family.
26:38If you want to testify, you can get up here and testify.
26:43Otherwise, you have refrained from doing that.
26:45And so stop talking.
26:47And on that call, he blames a then 15-year-old girl for not telling him that her mother had
26:53moved on.
26:54And that's sick and twisted, Your Honor.
26:57No more sick and twisted than living in a home with your murdered ex-girlfriend under your floor.
27:02A home that he later shared with his common-law wife.
27:07Every step of the way has been a slap in the face to Kimberly's family.
27:13Every step of this is just inhumane.
27:16To put up a billboard and pretend you're trying to help find her is, it is vile.
27:24It is inhuman.
27:25And it is not worthy of any consideration from the court, Your Honor.
27:29I'm asking the court to enforce that full 40.
27:31So Terry Rose spends what's left of his life behind the bar, Your Honor.
27:34Because that's what he deserves.
27:35It was now time for the judge to hand down Terry's sentence.
27:38And quite frankly, she was disgusted.
27:41It's not often that I'm at a loss for words.
27:43And honestly, it's because I have too many words.
27:46And anything I say is not going to help Tiffany and her family other than getting this over with.
27:51But there's just certain things that I can't even look past to not point out.
27:58The fact on that phone call that you said you're not a psychopath is just beyond me.
28:05Who isn't a psychopath that kills someone that they once cared about and buries them in their house and lives
28:14on top of them for 25 years?
28:15I would think that's the definition in Webster's Dictionary of a psychopath.
28:20And Tiffany's right.
28:2240 years isn't enough.
28:24There is a part of me that wishes I had not accepted this plea agreement and that we had gone
28:28to trial last week.
28:29Because I do think a jury would have given you life for 99 years.
28:32I actually do.
28:33And the fact that you thought you wouldn't is the most narcissistic thing I think I've ever heard in my
28:38entire life.
28:38I mean, there's just so much more.
28:40The billboard.
28:40I mean, it's insane.
28:41It's psychotic.
28:44That's what it is.
28:45I hope that today gives Tiffany at least some final closure on all of this and her family.
28:53I'm going to sentence you to a term of 40 years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of
28:58Corrections.
29:01If I had 50, I'd give you 50.
29:03If I had 60, I'd give you 60.
29:04Whatever it was that the cap was going to be after hearing all this, it would have been whatever it
29:09was.
29:10Finally, after 26 years, Kim's family had some closure knowing her killer would be locked up for good.
29:16But before Terry was taken away, Tiffany spoke to the courtroom one last time.
29:21For 25 years, I woke up and I went to sleep with the same unbearable questions.
29:27Where is my mom and what happened to her?
29:30The pain of not knowing is indescribable.
29:33It is grief.
29:34It is fear and a deep sense of abandonment that never let go.
29:40The reality that she was buried beneath this man's house all of these years,
29:46held captive even in death, is unbearable.
29:50For Terry, do you remember me?
29:53That was the first thing you said to me when you approached me just three years after my mother disappeared.
29:59Then you asked, did you ever find your mom?
30:03I was stunned that you had the nerve to speak to me at all.
30:06And horrified by what you said.
30:09You were taunting me, knowing the entire time that you had my mother.
30:14You refer to the day you murdered my mother and buried her beneath your bedroom as a bad day.
30:19That bad day, that bad day cost me everything.
30:22It stole my childhood, my sense of safety, my trust, the future that her and I planned,
30:31and the chance for my children to ever know their grandmother.
30:34You have no regard for human life.
30:37Listening to you and your son, Terry Rose Jr. speak so callously about my death,
30:43about how happy it would make you if I died so you could pour pee on my grave,
30:49shows the depth of the evil you carry.
30:52It reveals a family that treats human life as disposable.
30:56You are a murderer.
30:57Your son clearly has learned to view life the same way you do,
31:03and now he passes that to his son, your grandson, who also awaits trial for murder.
31:09You all are vile, vile human beings.
31:14Terry Rose was transported to the Die Ball unit in the Texas Department of Corrections
31:19and will be eligible for parole at the ripe age of 88.
31:23I'm feeling relieved, a little bit of relief that this is finally over.
31:28Happy to walk away and know that we don't have to come back and do this anymore.
31:32I want people to remember my mom more than anything.
31:36To me, that's what's most important is that she is remembered.
32:03Cheers.
32:04You
