1
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:18,960
What I know now
2
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,120
is that there were a lot of people
out there that loved Robby.
3
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,480
I loved him, too,
because he was wonderful.
4
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,200
It's not fair that Robby is not here.
5
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:03,720
He was only 25...
6
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,680
and he had his whole life ahead of him,
7
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,560
but I made the choice.
8
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:11,320
I took his life...
9
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,360
and there's nothing I can do to undo it.
10
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,280
This is a true story.
11
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:32,960
I'll start it off like that.
12
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,280
I just wanted to rebel.
I wanted to cause chaos.
13
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,120
I looked over at him.
We'll see who kills who, huh?
14
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:40,520
I made the choice.
15
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:42,640
I took his life.
16
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,160
It's something
that I never intended to do,
17
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,440
I wish I didn't do.
18
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,560
I knew I was gonna get out
of that car and murder those two men.
19
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,040
As he kneeled in front of me,
20
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,560
all I remember is pulling the trigger.
21
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,040
I'd killed them both.
22
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,640
I'd stabbed them to death.
23
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,080
-Oh, goodness.
- Doesn't help.
24
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,400
It's difficult to get it
in the right position.
25
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:47,760
Yeah, it's weird.
26
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,160
My name is Lindsay Haugen.
27
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,080
I grew up in Portland, Oregon.
28
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,120
I enjoyed going to church.
29
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,200
Um, I loved to study the Bible
and I loved to sing.
30
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,040
In high school, I became very rebellious
31
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,880
and I started to do things
that maybe I would have said no to before.
32
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:31,400
I started smoking marijuana
and hanging out with a different crowd.
33
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:36,960
Around 15,
34
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,360
I started to run away from home.
35
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,200
I spent the rest of the time
in Portland, on the streets,
36
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,520
living with a very rough crowd,
and I went straight from
37
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,040
trying marijuana a couple of times, to...
38
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,600
taking methamphetamines,
um, with a needle.
39
00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,800
And from there, it became...
40
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,200
heroin, and I realized
that I was addicted.
41
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,640
And I was probably 16.
42
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,040
One day,
I decided to take a pregnancy test,
43
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,320
and it turned out
I'd been pregnant for three months
44
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,000
and I had just turned 17.
45
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,560
I changed... I changed right then.
46
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,080
I stopped using drugs,
47
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:27,760
and I wanted to be a parent.
48
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:31,000
I wanted to do well,
and I wanted to take care of my son.
49
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,560
I loved basic training.
I loved the uniform.
50
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,800
I loved being able to do
more push-ups than the boys,
51
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,560
and it was probably
some of the best times of my life.
52
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,680
I met this man in the end of 2013.
53
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,600
He was in the Army as well.
54
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:16,760
Almost immediately,
55
00:05:16,840 --> 00:05:19,000
he was mean to me when he drank whiskey.
56
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,400
He would lose his mind over things
that didn't even matter,
57
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,200
or weren't real,
that he would make up in his head.
58
00:05:25,280 --> 00:05:26,960
He told me he didn't like my work
59
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,840
because there were
too many attractive men there.
60
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:34,280
And... I tried to tell him I'm used to it.
This is what I've always worked around,
61
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,080
and it doesn't affect me.
I don't even notice them.
62
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,520
But it didn't matter. It made him crazy.
63
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,840
He hit me while I was driving
a couple of times,
64
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,440
just trying to get me to say
what he wanted me to say.
65
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,360
He just wanted to hear me tell him
that I was not being faithful.
66
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,280
I remember nights of him
throwing me on the floor
67
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,080
and spitting chewed-up food on me,
68
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:04,520
pouring beer on my head...
69
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:05,880
Um...
70
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:07,360
raping me...
71
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,120
in all sorts of ways
72
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:14,720
and calling me dirty,
calling me names that I wouldn't repeat.
73
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,040
And it got worse.
74
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,640
I remember one time he...
75
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:28,880
He spit on me...
76
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:31,920
while I was in the bathroom.
77
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:33,240
And so, I stood up...
78
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,840
I knew he blocked the only way out.
79
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,080
And so, I lifted my arm to swing at him,
and he grabbed my hand.
80
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,880
And then he grabbed my other hand,
and he crushed them.
81
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:43,560
I screamed...
82
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,080
until he started mocking my screams.
83
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,720
And so, I stopped screaming,
and I looked him in the eye,
84
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,440
and I felt my hand break.
85
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:56,800
And...
86
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,520
he put me in a choke-hold.
87
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,240
I said, "If you're gonna do this,
please don't let me wake up,
88
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,000
because I can't do this anymore."
89
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,400
And so, he held me in that choke-hold,
90
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,680
and made me look at myself in the mirror
and said, "Watch yourself die."
91
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:22,960
And it went dark.
92
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,200
I found myself at home
with no one to talk to but my dog,
93
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,800
drinking... drinking a lot.
94
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,040
I would wake up and I would drink.
95
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,760
I would drink until I went to sleep
and I would wake up and drink again.
96
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,120
It felt crazy.
97
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,080
So, when I met Robby, I had just
gotten out of a tough relationship,
98
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,120
and he had just gotten out of rehab
in June of that year.
99
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,400
But I didn't know that.
100
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,880
What I knew was
that there was this beautiful smile
101
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,440
sitting in a big pile of empty beer cans
on the floor,
102
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,080
with no shirt on and dreadlocks.
103
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:44,000
And...
104
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,120
just very carefree.
105
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,320
He leaned back on his hands,
106
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,120
and he just went, "Hi," and...
107
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,080
there was just
kind of this instant connection.
108
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,880
Robby embraced
what he called a traveler lifestyle...
109
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,440
but he really lived it a lot harder
than a lot of people did.
110
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:13,880
He would hop freight trains
111
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,680
and ride to wherever they were going,
112
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,240
hitchhike, whatever it was,
113
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,800
just traveling, never really staying
in one place for a long time.
114
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,320
And I said,
"I'll give you a place to stay.
115
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,400
You don't have to do anything.
Just be here when I get home."
116
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,360
And he said, "I just can't stay
in one place any longer. I need to go."
117
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,400
I said, "Okay, I'll come with you."
118
00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:51,760
There were times when we'd be on the road.
I'd be singing to him.
119
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,200
He'd just look at me and say,
"I just love you."
120
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,320
And I just adored him.
121
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:58,560
He was my best friend.
122
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,240
And there were times
when I would expect him
123
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:11,960
to treat me poorly, or to accuse me
of something, or to think badly of me...
124
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,280
and he just wouldn't.
125
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,320
And... I treasured it.
126
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:22,680
I loved it so much.
127
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,560
But there was a time
when we were driving...
128
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,400
Um, I think we were in Montana
at that point, and...
129
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,400
I was looking at the scenery,
just enjoying it,
130
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,400
thinking, "Man, this is awesome,
look around us," and...
131
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,520
he looks at me,
and he holds my hand, and he says...
132
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,560
"I wish I could just be happy with you,
133
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,000
but I'm not.
134
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:54,920
And it's not you."
135
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:00,720
And it just crushed me.
136
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,480
He kept telling me he wanted to see
what the next life was like.
137
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,040
He was hurting.
138
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,880
He'd always be talking or motioning
139
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,240
as though he was shooting himself
in the head.
140
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,160
Talking about how he wanted to die,
about how tired he was.
141
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,760
And I just kept trying
to bring him back from that.
142
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,440
"Robby, you're better than that.
Robby, you have so much to live for."
143
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,560
I took it personally,
144
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,760
like I wasn't enough for him
to be happy with.
145
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,040
One day, he looked at me,
and again, he said, "Lindsay, I'm tired.
146
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:56,720
I don't wanna do this anymore.
147
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:58,360
I just wanna die."
148
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:03,400
So, I said...
149
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,040
"I know of a way to do it that won't hurt.
150
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,880
You'll just go unconscious,
and then you just won't wake up."
151
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,280
He looked at me,
his eyes sparkled,
152
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,480
and he said, "You would do that for me?"
153
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,480
And I said, "Robby, I love you.
I would do anything for you."
154
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:28,080
And he said, "Okay."
155
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,360
And that floored me,
and I broke down, and I cried so hard.
156
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,560
And so, he said, "No, no, no, no."
157
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,000
He hated to see me sad.
He hated to see me cry.
158
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,640
And so he held me and he said,
159
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,600
"No. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it.
Don't be sad. Please don't be sad."
160
00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:49,440
He just held me
and we slept that night.
161
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,280
And the next morning,
I woke up, and I said,
162
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,040
"I'm sorry I couldn't do that last night.
163
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,160
I didn't expect you to be so ready."
164
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:14,200
And he said...
165
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,960
"I couldn't have expected you
to do that for me."
166
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,160
And there, again, my heart broke.
167
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,040
I expected him to say,
168
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,360
"No, we were just drunk,
I didn't mean it," or...
169
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,200
you know, "I'm glad you didn't, because,
you know, today is nice," or something.
170
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:33,360
But, no, he said,
171
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,000
"I couldn't have expected that from you."
172
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,800
And so I just felt
like I'd let him down again.
173
00:13:56,560 --> 00:13:59,800
When we got to Billings,
we sat in the parking lot at Walmart.
174
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,200
We had wine to drink, enjoyed the sun.
175
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:10,720
And we got back in the truck,
176
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:13,600
and he motioned again...
177
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,160
that he was shooting himself in the head.
178
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:19,280
And I...
179
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:27,200
I... I just felt like I was
letting him down again, like I just...
180
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,120
I thought we were having a nice day,
181
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,480
but now here he is again,
just wanting to die.
182
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,480
And I asked,
"Is that really what you want?"
183
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:38,480
And he said, "Yes."
184
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,040
And I said, "Are you sure?"
185
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:44,440
And he said, "Yes."
186
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:46,680
So I said, "Okay."
187
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,360
And I sat on the center console,
and I said, "Come here."
188
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,200
And he came to me.
189
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,000
And I put...
190
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,400
my arms around his neck,
191
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,840
and then, he just bowed his head.
192
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,800
When I started,
I didn't feel like I could really do it.
193
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:34,360
I squeezed,
and I could tell it wasn't hard enough.
194
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:39,600
And so,
195
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,520
I put my other arm behind his neck
196
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,480
and squeezed until he was unconscious.
197
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,360
And...
198
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:53,280
...he shook.
199
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,240
I thought maybe he was waking up.
200
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,640
I thought
maybe he was gonna stop me.
201
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,960
But then he stopped. He stopped shaking.
202
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,240
And I knew I had to go.
203
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,320
And so, I buckled him in... and...
204
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,760
I went to drive out of the parking lot,
205
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,560
and I realized
I had no idea where I was.
206
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:26,920
And I...
207
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:30,840
I looked...
208
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,400
I looked to Robby
because he always knew where to go.
209
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:36,320
And...
210
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,400
And I said, "Baby, where do I go?"
211
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,480
And he looked like he was sleeping.
212
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,000
And I started to think about...
213
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,320
how I could get him back.
214
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,200
And I pulled into traffic
215
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,080
and crossed lanes
and got into a parking lot.
216
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,360
I unbuckled his seat belt,
and I put him on the center console...
217
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,440
...and I started doing CPR.
218
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,720
And I breathed into him,
and I could hear...
219
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,040
...like air was going in,
like something was happening,
220
00:17:10,120 --> 00:17:13,560
and I begged him, "Robby, please,
wake up, please, wake up!"
221
00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:16,120
And then, I heard a knock on the window.
222
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:18,960
And somebody said, "Excuse me."
223
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,160
There was a police officer.
224
00:17:25,120 --> 00:17:26,680
I just told him, "I killed him.
225
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:31,760
Please bring him back."
226
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,560
This is a good time.
227
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,400
There's Robby.
228
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,440
My name is Dori Greeson,
229
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,160
and I was born
and raised in Tampa, Florida.
230
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:27,920
I love this one.
231
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,160
Robby was my son.
232
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,680
I met my first husband, Bob Mast...
233
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,000
when I was 24.
234
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,640
We had our first son, Benjamin,
235
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,840
and then, we had our second son,
Robby, in 1990.
236
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,080
Robby was fun.
237
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,920
He was outgoing.
238
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,320
Of course, I loved him very much.
And he was so precious.
239
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,560
Well, my name is Gene,
and I actually became...
240
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,000
a part of this family in May of 1996.
241
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:12,280
I got to be...
242
00:19:12,360 --> 00:19:14,840
I'd been Robby's stepfather about, uh...
243
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,840
I guess, 12 years or so
before they left home.
244
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,240
And I thought we had a good 12 years.
245
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,600
I didn't know when I'd see him
again. I had no idea where he was going.
246
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,640
And Gene and I were standing on the road,
and I just collapsed...
247
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:55,040
in Gene's arms, because I thought,
"Where's he going? What's he gonna do?"
248
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,760
It was a year and, uh, 24 days
249
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:06,600
before we heard from him.
250
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,000
The reason we didn't hear
from him very often
251
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,040
was because he knew that his lifestyle
252
00:20:15,120 --> 00:20:17,000
would be painful to us,
253
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,720
especially if he called us
when he was drinking.
254
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,200
We'd be able to tell.
And he knew that would make us sad.
255
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,920
There was just so much we didn't know.
256
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,240
In May, he checked himself
into a alcohol rehab.
257
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,560
Got to talk to his supervisors.
258
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,920
Everybody said he was doing so well.
259
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,680
And so, we thought we would hear
when he got out.
260
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:58,560
We never heard from him again.
261
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,920
Next thing we heard was, you know,
four months later, he was dead.
262
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,360
It was September the 17th.
263
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:12,480
When the phone rang,
264
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,200
she just told me that Robby was dead,
just like that.
265
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,600
I was... Of course, I was shocked.
I couldn't believe it. What?
266
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,800
I just yelled and yelled.
267
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,480
I yelled for Robby, "Robby, Robby!
Come back! Robby, come back!"
268
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:30,000
As if he could hear me, and he would
come back. Just, "Robby, come back."
269
00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:37,120
And when I learned he had been murdered,
I was... I was upset
270
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,560
that somebody...
271
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,200
would... would kill Robby.
272
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,720
You know? Because he was a nice guy.
He was a good guy.
273
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,880
He was just a hurting guy.
I thought maybe someone just killed him
274
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,240
because they didn't think he was
worth anything. And I hated that.
275
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,160
Then I read about it,
and I saw that it was this woman.
276
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,400
And the paper said she was his girlfriend,
and I was like,
277
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,440
"No, no, no. Who is this woman?
And why would she kill Robby?"
278
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,200
It's not every day that,
here in Billings, we have...
279
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,640
a female accused
of such a horrendous crime.
280
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,240
And not only that,
but one that would use their own hands
281
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:43,480
to commit that crime.
282
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,760
My name's Steve Hallam. I've been
with the Billings Police Department
283
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,400
here in Montana for roughly 14 years.
284
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,360
When I had
Lindsay step into the interview room,
285
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,720
obviously, I kind of had an idea
of how Robby lost his life.
286
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,480
And it was just to figure out
what happened and why it happened.
287
00:23:12,120 --> 00:23:14,920
And when did he start asking you
to end his life for him?
288
00:23:16,120 --> 00:23:20,080
- Probably about a week ago.
- How'd that conversation come up?
289
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:26,240
We drank a lot of wine, and we were drunk,
and he... he was just like, you know...
290
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:33,040
"I'm not happy here. I'm really not.
I just wanna die. I just wanna go away."
291
00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:35,080
And I was like, "Well, look...
292
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,160
...I am a big, strong girl,
293
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,800
and I can take you out, and it won't hurt.
294
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,000
I promise you.
295
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:44,640
Um...
296
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,520
And if that's what you really want,
297
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,760
I love you,
and I want to give that to you."
298
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,800
Very rarely, if ever,
have I ever heard up until this case
299
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,720
somebody asking somebody else
to kill them.
300
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,280
I've been doing this job for a long time.
If somebody wants to end their life,
301
00:23:59,360 --> 00:24:02,640
there are plenty of other ways to do it.
302
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,320
So, let's go back to, uh, this morning.
303
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,200
What were you guys talking about
304
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,280
when laying on the ground
in the parking lot
305
00:24:11,360 --> 00:24:14,000
-behind your Tahoe at Walmart?
- Nothing at all.
306
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,160
We were talking about getting more booze.
307
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,080
-Yeah? Just shooting the shit?
-Yeah.
308
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,000
No, just hanging out and making sure...
309
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,400
According to Lindsay's testimony
up to this point in time,
310
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,360
they're intoxicated
and talking about how good things are.
311
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,200
And now, a couple minutes later,
we're inside the Tahoe.
312
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:33,000
Now, all of a sudden, she's saying
that Robby's telling her he's not happy.
313
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,880
He wants to die,
and he wants her to kill him.
314
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,440
It just, again, didn't make sense.
315
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:38,760
Show me what you did.
316
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,080
I put him in a rear naked choke
like this...
317
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:42,080
-Okay.
318
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,040
Until he, like,
he started seizing a little bit.
319
00:24:45,120 --> 00:24:47,840
And then, he passed out.
And I was like, "All right."
320
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,520
And then, once he was out,
321
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,160
I got in front of him
and grabbed his nose and mouth
322
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,360
-and, like, kept his chin shut.
-Okay.
323
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,400
And, like, he foamed at the mouth
a little bit.
324
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,080
Like, I kept thinking he was dead,
and I let him go,
325
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,440
and he'd fucking seize some more.
326
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,800
I'm like, "Robby, you really
fucking want me to do this?
327
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,640
Because I don't want to."
328
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,320
And he just kept putting my hand back.
329
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,840
And I'm like, "Okay, they're apart."
330
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,680
That, right there, is an absolute lie.
331
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:23,560
If you listen to the video real carefully,
she states that he kept grabbing her hand
332
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,160
and putting the hand back on his mouth.
333
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:27,760
Well, if you're unconscious,
334
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:32,040
you're not going to have that ability
to grab somebody
335
00:25:32,120 --> 00:25:34,080
and put their hand back on your mouth.
336
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,840
There's no way that could have happened.
337
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:41,760
Every act that she's committing on him now
is at her own hand. That's it. Period.
338
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,200
What were you planning on doing
with, uh, Robby's body?
339
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:48,320
Um...
340
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,440
I was having a hard time with that.
I mean, like, you know,
341
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,760
I was having a hard time
with the whole fucking thing.
342
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:58,800
But I was just figuring I'd find
343
00:25:59,360 --> 00:26:02,560
a scarcely populated area
and fucking dump him. I mean...
344
00:26:03,120 --> 00:26:05,600
So, after she took the life from Robby,
345
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,280
she was going to find a place
to bury him, drop him off.
346
00:26:09,360 --> 00:26:13,280
And it seems like a total inconvenience,
from her, based on her testimony.
347
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,800
And then,
she's gonna go back to Washington
348
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,160
and act like she never even knew Robby.
349
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,440
So, that goes to show you
just how much she loved Robby.
350
00:26:23,120 --> 00:26:24,240
She didn't love Robby.
351
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,280
If she would have loved Robby,
she would have never done this act.
352
00:26:29,120 --> 00:26:32,040
Even if he begged you to do that,
why did you do that?
353
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,760
We're at the point where the interview
has turned from an interview
354
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:36,960
into an interrogation.
355
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,600
I was pretty stunned and shocked
what came out of her mouth next.
356
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,760
Lindsay, here's the deal. I've been doing
this shit for a while, okay?
357
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:46,760
I buy how it happened.
358
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:48,680
I buy you guys were traveling.
359
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,320
I don't buy that he was unhappy,
and he begged you to take his life.
360
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,920
No, that's absolutely what happened.
That's absolutely what happened.
361
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,680
But yes, um...
362
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,280
-I don't, I don't...
363
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,360
I just wanted to kill somebody
with my bare hands, honestly.
364
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,800
Well, then that makes more sense to me.
365
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,880
That right there was stunning. Shocking.
366
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:14,680
I've never had anybody say that to me
in an interview room before.
367
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,680
So, you just wanted to know
what it felt like to kill somebody
368
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:19,960
with your bare hands?
369
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,040
-Kind of, but no.
-Okay.
370
00:27:22,120 --> 00:27:23,440
It was also that he asked.
371
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,280
-Hang on. One thing at a time, my dear.
372
00:27:26,360 --> 00:27:28,840
-You're making me out to be the bad guy.
-No, I'm not.
373
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:30,760
-I'm not a bad guy.
-Have I ever called you bad?
374
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,360
-No.
-Are you in handcuffs right now?
375
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,880
-No.
-Do I have, like, five guys next to me
376
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:36,680
'cause I'm scared shitless of you?
377
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:37,800
-You should be.
-Huh?
378
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,000
Just kidding.
379
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:40,400
-No.
-You know what I'm saying?
380
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,560
-I know.
-All right. So, you just came out
381
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,000
and you told me
you just kinda wanted to feel
382
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,840
what it would feel like to kill somebody
with your bare hands.
383
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,000
What is... What made you think like that?
384
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,840
Was it past experiences or what?
385
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,440
Well, my last fiancé,
386
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,080
he broke my hand like this.
387
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,720
And... and then he got...
You know what I mean?
388
00:28:01,120 --> 00:28:03,720
Just like I did to Robby,
and fucking choked me out.
389
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:07,200
I remember waking up on the floor
and it was like I was under water,
390
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,800
but I wasn't, and I knew he was, like,
he was smothering me, and, uh...
391
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,720
I guess I just wanted to do that back,
392
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,240
but not to someone so sweet like Robby.
393
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,440
He just...
He just wanted it to happen, so I...
394
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:22,760
I saw my opportunity, I guess.
395
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:24,040
Okay.
396
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,840
"I saw the opportunity."
397
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,640
That's the whole case there.
398
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,800
Perfect opportunity. He can't fight back.
399
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,160
We're in an unknown location.
Nobody knows us.
400
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,720
I'm ready and willing. Let's get it done.
401
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,200
Let's... I want to take somebody's life.
402
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,800
From her own words. You can't contest
403
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,160
this video and what Lindsay says
in her own words.
404
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:56,920
I think Lindsay tries to paint a picture
of herself to kind of minimize
405
00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,400
who she really truly is.
406
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:07,240
She is a deliberate homicidal killer.
407
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,480
Let's see what we got here.
So, there is a seven o'clock call,
408
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,840
-which is nine o'clock.
-Does it say 7:00? Where?
409
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:41,440
-Yeah, here, at 7:00.
-Got it.
410
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,000
Nine o'clock our time.
411
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:45,840
-Oh, 'cause we're gonna do two.
-We'll do two calls in a row.
412
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,520
Dori and I have been
ministering in prisons
413
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:54,040
for at least 14 years,
and most of them that we have met
414
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,640
are not the same person they were
before they went to prison.
415
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,800
So, we have compassion
416
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:06,160
for those people who have lost
their freedom due to their own stupidity
417
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:07,840
and own bad choices.
418
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,520
Let's be quiet,
because she could come on.
419
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:11,840
-Hi.
- Hi, guys.
420
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:13,920
Hi. Oh, you did good.
421
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,520
-So, did you have--
-Okay.
422
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:16,960
Did you leave early?
423
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,080
No, we all left at the same time,
but there was somebody on the phone,
424
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:22,600
-so, I had to take a walk.
-Good.
425
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,800
-So, you didn't miss anything?
-No.
426
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:29,000
I'm going to have to write you up
though, Lindsay, you were 50 seconds late.
427
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:30,960
-Oh, man.
-You need to work on that.
428
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,960
-I was doing so good.
-Yeah, you're doing so good. I know.
429
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:36,520
Well, actually,
430
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:40,680
honestly, Friday, when Dori had
a hard time getting on the computer,
431
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,240
I was, like, 30 seconds late.
432
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,080
- And I didn't know.
-You were? You're admitting that now, huh?
433
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:47,400
- Yeah.
434
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:48,760
Tell us about it.
435
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,320
-How was your weekend?
-It was amazing.
436
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,600
As the newest girl in choir,
I'm really enjoying it.
437
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,520
I was able to forgive Lindsay
438
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,680
-because I know I am forgiven by God.
-We asked the volunteer
439
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,680
if it was okay if we sang a song together.
440
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,440
To hang on to things
441
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:06,760
can bring so much resentment inside of us
that it can destroy us.
442
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,280
How about you singing it for us now?
443
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:11,320
Can you do that?
444
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,280
-Oh, okay.

Thank you, Lindsay.
We love hearing you sing,
455
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,240
and let's say our goodbyes.
456
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:57,400
We love you. Bye.
457
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,040
Call us anytime. Bye.
458
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,440
I think it's important
to get the message out
459
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,920
about forgiveness,
both receiving it and giving it.
460
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,400
In the beginning,
I think our forgiveness was real.
461
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,920
I think what we didn't have
and what you see now
462
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,040
is we didn't have a love for Lindsay.
463
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,360
I mean, how could you, you know?
As I've said in my first letter,
464
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,120
I usually begin my letters
with "Dear Lindsay,"
465
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,160
but I certainly do not consider you dear,
466
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:42,720
given what you've done.
467
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,960
But then, it wasn't long in the letters
going back and forth
468
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,280
that I could say, "Dear Lindsay."
469
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,160
I did not expect this to go this far.
I just...
470
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,080
And I felt, you know, okay,
471
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,880
this precious human being is sorry.
472
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,240
She's got to pay for this in prison.
473
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,480
But the letters just kept going until now.
474
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,880
I wish you all could have
been there when Dori met Lindsay.
475
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,840
We were in a room, a visiting park.
They cleared it all out just for us.
476
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:26,200
So, Lindsay walks in.
We hear her steps coming down the hall.
477
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:27,280
The door opens.
478
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:31,760
She walks in. Walking towards Dori.
Dori walking to her.
479
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:33,200
And Lindsay says,
480
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,560
"I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry."
481
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:37,200
And Dori says,
482
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,960
"I forgive you.
Lindsay, I forgive you. I love you."
483
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:42,400
And they hugged.
484
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,200
-Oh, thank you so much.
-You're welcome.
485
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:51,880
It was just precious,
486
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:56,560
and Dori knew then
her forgiveness was real,
487
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:57,960
her love was real.
488
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:02,960
Of course, I got to say,
Lindsay has brought me a lot of joy
489
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,000
in how she's responded.

and receiving our forgiveness.
496
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:26,440
She's been an example
of how I need to be with my savior,
497
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:27,960

This right here...
501
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:28,640
So, you spent Friday afternoon
in Missoula with, uh, Robby, Robert Mast,
502
00:35:28,720 --> 00:35:31,280
and the girl he was with, Lindsay.
503
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:35,320
She was pretty intense.
They both definitely had been drinking.
504
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,760
Like, she was really, really about him.
505
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,960
It was like, "Oh, I'm in love with Robby.
506
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,560
I really care about him.
I really like him."
507
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,600
But they hadn't really known each other
that long.
508
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,000
You know somebody for four weeks,
509
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,760
and now, he just out of the blue says,
"You know what?
510
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,920
I've known you for four weeks.
You seem like a great gal.
511
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,280
I don't want to live anymore.
Would you mind killing me?"
512
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:26,360
Doesn't... No way.
It did not happen like that.
513
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:32,600
He was talking about his ex a lot,
Kate, who's a mutual friend of ours,
514
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:37,200
and that seemed to really piss her off.
They were together for years,
515
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,640
and had something really strong,
even though they spent time apart.
516
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,720
That's kind of what he was saying,
that he missed Kate.
517
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,560
You know? It was apparent.
He kept talking about her.
518
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,480
And, uh, Lindsay seemed
pretty annoyed with that.
519
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,760
Why do you think Robby was
with this Lindsay girl?
520
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:54,640
Um...
521
00:36:54,720 --> 00:36:57,360
I don't know. She had a vehicle.
It's a ride.
522
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,520
They were talking about
going up to the northeast.
523
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:02,600
I know that's the area Kate was in, too.
524
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,440
Maybe he kind of had ulterior motives,
and maybe she was figuring that out.
525
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,560
That jealousy deep inside her,
knowing that...
526
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,120
she loved Robby way more
than Robby loved her,
527
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:17,600
if he even did at all.
528
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,160
And he was using her
to get back to the love of his life, Kate.
529
00:37:21,240 --> 00:37:24,120
I think that was kind of fuel on a fire.
530
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:28,040
And it was a perfect storm
up there in the Walmart parking lot
531
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:29,480
in Billings, Montana.
532
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,200
When others would say to me,
533
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,880
"I would never be able to forgive someone
who killed my child,"
534
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:25,440
I felt they were saying it
like I was betraying him.
535
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,280
And I do understand, uh, people who have
536
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,520
a hard time forgiving or even those
who haven't forgiven Lindsay.
537
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,840
We are confident as we could be
about anything in life
538
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,120
that what Robby would want us to do
539
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:44,800
is to forgive Lindsay.
540
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,320
You know, I know there are some
who doubt whether Lindsay
541
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,120
is being totally honest,
542
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:55,080
and I don't have any problem
accepting Lindsay's story.
543
00:38:55,160 --> 00:39:01,000
The bottom line is, let's say that it was
premeditated with malice and so forth.
544
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,240
I still believe our place is
to forgive her.
545
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,520
She should have taken him to a hospital,
546
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,800
and he should have gotten
the help he needed.
547
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,120
I know it. Gene knows it. She knows it.
548
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:20,720
She's expressed that to us.
549
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,640
But I don't make any excuses
for what she did.
550
00:39:23,720 --> 00:39:24,760
I just know
551
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,280
that redemption is real.
552
00:39:32,240 --> 00:39:35,200
We believe that who Lindsay is becoming,
553
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,160
the life that Lindsay is living
554
00:39:38,240 --> 00:39:40,680
helps to give Robby's life purpose.
555
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:45,240
And in saying that, I guess you'd say
helps to give Robby's death purpose.
556
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:04,080
People hear the story,
and they think that Dori is maybe damaging
557
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,960
her son's memory
or disrespecting his memory
558
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:08,720
by being friends with me.
559
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,280
I understand
where they're coming from.
560
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,160
I know it's a hard thing to grasp.
561
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:26,320
But I can't help think
that Robby would have wanted it this way.
562
00:40:55,240 --> 00:41:00,960
I guess my relationship with Dori and Gene
could be seen as beneficial to my parole,
563
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:05,040
but... that is not something
that I'm concerned with.
564
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:08,040
Do I hope I get out someday?
Yeah, absolutely.
565
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:12,800
But I believe that God has me here
for a reason.
566
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:14,400
And if he...
567
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:19,120
wants me to stay here for all 60 years,
then I'll stay here.
568
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,600
I don't know that Robby felt
as strongly as I did
569
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,560
about me, as I felt about him.
570
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:39,400
I had barely met him.
571
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,680
We talked a lot, and we were very close,
572
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,360
but I didn't even know...
573
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:51,120
what his mom was like
or that he had a stepdad.
574
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,600
When I first started hanging out
with Robby,
575
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,520
he was talking about going
to the beet harvest
576
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:58,000
and getting back with Kate.
577
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:02,120
And we met some of Robby's friends
along the way in Missoula,
578
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,840
just a few days before his murder,
579
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:08,240
and they all spoke very fondly of Kate.
580
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,240
It was something that made me jealous.
581
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,520
It made me feel very hurt
and very insignificant.
582
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,000
And, um...
583
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:19,040
it was something that Robby
and I actually had a fight about.
584
00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,560
And so, we did have that talk.
We did have that fight.
585
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:26,720
It doesn't surprise me at all that people
think he was still going to meet Kate,
586
00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,400
because that was probably
the last anyone heard of him.
587
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,640
But he expressed
that he wanted to stay with me,
588
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:34,760
and I believed him.
589
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:38,560
I still believe that he meant it.
590
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:45,920
So, just listen to it?
591
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:51,160
I buy how it happened.
592
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,040
I buy you guys were traveling.
593
00:42:53,720 --> 00:42:57,280
I don't buy that he was unhappy,
and he begged you to take his life.
594
00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,640
No, that's absolutely what happened.
595
00:42:59,720 --> 00:43:02,560
That's absolutely what happened.
But yes, um...
596
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:09,160
I just wanted to kill somebody
with my bare hands, honestly.
597
00:43:09,240 --> 00:43:11,360
Well, that makes more sense to me.
598
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,120
I haven't heard that clip in a long time.
I'm shocked by it.
599
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,440
Um, I'm embarrassed.
600
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:24,760
I'm ashamed.
601
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:30,080
And I'm sorry that my attitude
was so flippant.
602
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:31,520
It's appalling.
603
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,200
I said I just wanted to know
what it felt like
604
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,760
to kill someone with my bare hands,
because...
605
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,160
I was getting called a liar again.
606
00:43:41,240 --> 00:43:43,440
And in the relationship before Robby,
607
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:48,040
I was being called a liar all the time
when I was being honest.
608
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:52,120
And I found that the easiest way
609
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:54,640
to stop being called a liar
610
00:43:55,480 --> 00:44:01,040
is to tell the person calling me a liar
what it was that they wanted to hear.
611
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:06,760
For anyone who thinks that
that was something that I had...
612
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,360
looked for or planned for
613
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:12,360
or wanted to do...
614
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,280
I don't know that there's
anything I can do to change your mind,
615
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:21,640
but it's not true.
616
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:26,240
I've never wanted to kill anybody.
617
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:39,640
Once you've killed somebody,
you can't just feel normal.
618
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:41,880
I'm afraid to give somebody a hug.
619
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,920
You know, people look at my hands
like... Are they dirty?
620
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:49,080
Is there something wrong with them?
I kind of feel like they are sometimes.
621
00:44:55,920 --> 00:45:01,120
The only way, I think,
that I can really show how sorry I am
622
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:04,800
is to live a different life
623
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:08,080
and be the best person I can be
624
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,960
for Robby and for all the people
that I hurt by taking him.
625
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:15,800
If I can make a difference,
if I can do something good with my life,
626
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:19,720
it's like Robby's living on through me,
like Robby's life still has meaning.
627
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:20,880
That might...
628
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:25,080
never be enough, but it's all I can give.
629
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,960
And that's what I intend to do,
and that's what I do every day.
