We get coyotes. Both here and in town.

and probably very close-knit...
84
00:05:09,019 --> 00:05:12,814

but if a man did this...
85
00:05:13,023 --> 00:05:17,277
...and it would typically be a man, he would be
emboldened by escaping detection...
86
00:05:17,486 --> 00:05:20,489
...and would likely kill again.
Evidence doesn't support that.
87
00:05:20,697 --> 00:05:23,992
Well, the broken neck supports that.
And the bite marks that you see...
88
00:05:24,201 --> 00:05:26,203

I wasn't thinking wolf.

more like a hell hound.

What's a hell hound now?
106
00:06:30,183 --> 00:06:33,061
It's a large black dog that guards the gates of
the underworld. That's neither here nor there.
107
00:06:33,270 --> 00:06:35,939
The point is stranger things
have happened around here.
108
00:06:36,147 --> 00:06:39,234
In 1658, a Puritan midwife
named Goody Bishop...
109
00:06:39,442 --> 00:06:41,945
...was accused of witchcraft
and lying with the devil.
110
00:06:42,153 --> 00:06:46,658
Legend has it she spontaneously combusted
in front of the assembled townsfolk.
111
00:06:46,866 --> 00:06:49,119
Right over there.
As we've discussed before...
112
00:06:49,327 --> 00:06:53,498
...people don't just spontaneously oombust.
That woman was undoubtedly an innocent...
113
00:06:53,707 --> 00:06:56,668
...a tragic victim
of religious persecution and hysteria.
114
00:06:56,876 --> 00:06:59,754
And anybody would know that
if they read beyond the tourist literature.
115
00:06:59,963 --> 00:07:03,216
Because there were bogus witch hunts
doesn't mean that there were no witches.
116
00:07:03,425 --> 00:07:07,345
While I do sadly concede there are probably
no ooywolves in Eastwood, Connecticut...
117
00:07:07,554 --> 00:07:10,390
...I suspect there are still
practitioners of the black arts.
118
00:07:10,599 --> 00:07:14,144
Practice all they want, it doesn't mean
witchcraft has any basis in reality.
119
00:07:14,352 --> 00:07:18,064
Yeah, well, and yet a young boy is dead.
120
00:07:18,398 --> 00:07:21,985
The only devil here probably parks right here
in front of the playground...
121
00:07:22,193 --> 00:07:25,238
...stirring something other than his caldron.

Irregular lacerations and abrasions
on the neck, throat and torso.
128
00:08:04,527 --> 00:08:09,866
A significant amount
of the lower abdomen...
129
00:08:10,075 --> 00:08:12,327
...is completely torn out and missing.
130
00:08:12,535 --> 00:08:14,829
That would appear to agree
with their findings.
131
00:08:15,038 --> 00:08:17,123
Well, evisceration fits animal predation...
132
00:08:17,332 --> 00:08:21,544
...but the condition of the body makes it almost
impossible to determine when it happened.
133
00:08:21,753 --> 00:08:26,966
Cervical fracturing fits with the picture
that he was most probably shaken to death.
