Carolina a young Community with a large number of people in the armed forces it was home to 33-year-old Taylor
Wright and friend Vanessa Smith we both worked at Jacksonville Police Department together she loved
being a police officer she was happy to come to work she was happy to putle the uni for she was happy to go out there
and catch the bad guys and she would just she would do really good work Vanessa and Taylor both had
husbands in the military okay we're getting ready to start the engine being a military wife can be
difficult especially when your husbands deploy a lot we were each other's Rock when we needed it it was like a sisterly
friendship Taylor and her husband Jeff had had a son named Drake Taylor was amazing as a mom it was
fun to see Taylor transition from like this big bad cop to now this mother roll oh no no no no don't use this hand hold
it okay you P you won the wish now you have to make a wish did you make your wish okay give me
a kiss I love you there your typical family we hung out with them we went to dinner with them we go over to their
house a lot she was a part of the family she was a sister in 2015 Taylor and Jeff divorced
and Jeff eventually took custody of their son two years later Taylor moved 8800 miles away to start a
new life in Pensacola [Music] Florida Taylor started working as a private investigator and at the same
time applied for a job at Pensacola Police Department she made new friends and began a romantic relationship with a
woman who she moved in [Music] with life was settling down again but in September 2017
just a few months after moving to Pensacola Taylor disappeared her girlfriend at the time
sent me a Facebook message and asking if I had heard from Taylor if she was missing it was a shock because that
wasn't anything like her she loved her son she loved him endlessly and she would have never just gone and left him
didn't make sense Taylor was reported missing by her girlfriend Cassandra Waller Richard gigliotti was a detective
for the Pensacola Police Department the officer initially responded to this said she's an adult if
she wants to take some time off or take some time away she's more than welcome to do so
some time I went by I want to say close to a week or so the same reporting person Cassandra Waller come to the
station said that she still hadn't seen Taylor Wright still hadn't heard from her and was growing a little more
concerned as well as not returning home to Cassandra Taylor also failed to make any phone calls to her son who she
usually spoke with every evening I knew how she felt about her son Drake that she loved him with all of her heart and
she never would have just left him like that Taylor was building a new life in Pensacola despite the distance from her
old life and her child things seemed to be going well you have a mother who consistently calls her child now
suddenly not she has an application into to work at a police department she wanted to just disappear why are you
applying for jobs careers something was more than just a missing person's case the police needed to speak to
anyone who might have information about Taylor detective Chad willite was assigned to the
case well we investiga a Miss iners case um the first person that we're going to
talk to would be the reporting person which would be Cassandra Waller in this case the last day that y'all were
together can you kind of walk me through that day she made me breakfast she made
me like eggs and bacon and stuff and she was in no worry for anything you know just like the M
moment despite a few relationship issues and some erratic behavior all was well but her girlfriend received a message
later that day that was out of character Cassandra didn't hear from Taylor again and she didn't return
home Bridget Meers Jensen is the assistant State Attorney initially when someone goes
missing I think everyone is a suspect so in this particular case we looked at Taylor's girlfriend Taylor's
ex-husband possibly anyone that was involved in her Private Investigations were police looked at Taylor's
finances cameras that scann checks revealed a sudden large withdrawal from an account that she shared with her
ex-husband Taylor removed approximately $100,000 in cash out of the joint account that they had and the judge had
ordered Taylor to give the money back based on her ongoing dispute with her ex-husband Jeff and the fact that
there's $100,000 missing from the account he is a potential suspect in the case we did contact Jeff Wright he was a
friendly enough guy still had custody of their child he gave us a little background that Taylor you know has from
time to time taken off and didn't communicate with friends but did agree that she would still communicate with
her son there was still one key person the police needed to speak with with a friend of hers called Ashley
MacArthur who Taylor had trusted with a large sum of money Ashley MacArthur was a friend of Taylor Ashley's husband
actually worked with Taylor in the Private Investigations industry and so that's how Ashley and Taylor
met Ashley MacArthur had worked briefly as a crime scen technician at the sheriff's office she also worked for her
family's Amusement arcade company which supplied video games to local businesses Cassandra Waller paints this
picture Taylor let Ashley hold a significant amount of money and that Taylor kept trying to get the money back
Taylor grew more and more concerned about this and expressed this to Cassandra Taylor wri's girlfriend told
the police that Ashley had promised to give Taylor her money back on September 8th she was like okay well Ash is coming
over we're going to go to Ash's bank and we're going to pick up my money Ash had
pulled up and I was like all right you know we hugged we kissed I love you I went my
[Music] way that intimate moment was the last time Cassandra said she saw Taylor she also claimed that Taylor had
a funny feeling about Ashley it seemed like you can parid she was talking about how she felt like
something just wasn't right with Ash like she wasn't sure if Ash had her money or not because Taylor had been
trying to get the money for like four or 5 days and I was like Taylor you know she's probably been really busy you know
she goes no cash she goes like I'm telling you something just doesn't feel right with me I don't want to think this
but like I want to give you guys like whatever you guys need I be so wrong no I I'd rather you be wrong and have a
feeling or know something to tell us I to be mad at me cuz I like May or something as do even know
anything Cassandra's testimony meant the police were now becoming much more focused on Taylor's friend Ashley she
was called in for a chat to start with your relationship to Taylor okay she was more than happy to
cooperate and you all met how long ago about a year ago how often did y'all hang out
um probably once a week twice a week we kind of hone in on the day of The Disappearance with with Ashley and
really try to get her locked into a timeline the last day that you saw her was what day on Friday she discusses
going and picking up Taylor the morning of we went back to my house I believe and what
were what was your purpose purpose for going back there um to get the any of the papers that I had for her and the
money and stuff for her so the money was being kept at your house right how long
had the money been being kept there um it was only there for a few a few days where was it at before
that Taylor had it was Taylor trying to hide until she could recoup maybe funds that she had
spent was Taylor hiding this money with the hopes that they would just let it go
that was that was kind of an unknown Ashley gave a detailed account of what happened on September
8th I went to the gas station there to get a drink she was on the phone and I went in the store got a
drink and got her and her beer how much has she been drinking that day was she like intoxicated like she
didn't seem to be but I mean I don't drink at 10:00 in the morning either so I don't sure and
in fact I said something to her I was like beer at this time of the morning she was like well it's 5:00 somewhere
according to Ashley they proceed to Ashley's Family Farm out in East Milton this was a family farm that I had
instead we just drove out there and she was just team I guess she says Taylor rides
some of the horses and they um come back into Pensacola and Ashley says Taylor gets into an Uber and leaves her
residence she was fine she just said that she wanted to go have a beer and that she was going to get an Uber to
take her to go have a beer Ashley gives us permission to look into her cell phone at the time we kept the phone and
had the analyst plug it in and start start chipping away at downloading the police used the cell
phone data to check on Ashley's timeline of events then they tried to find evidence
for the route that Ashley said she and Taylor took we're looking for any kind of
surveillance cameras that we can find any kind of convenience stores that they may drive
past they began with the gas station that Ashley and Taylor went into on the last day to t er was
seen this is surveillance footage from a fuel station convenience store called Tom
Thumb as MacArthur going in purchasing some drinks she just grabbed a beer out of the cooler she's on the
phone here so it's presumed here that Taylor was likely in the vehicle she certainly
said that Taylor was in the vehicle the the video of Ashley in the gas station backed up her
timeline but when they got the cell phone data back Ashley's version of movements didn't match the root mapping
from her phone neither Ashley's cell phone or Taylor's cell phone ever goes over to
East Milton in fact their cell phon stay over in the area of that P station where
Ashley was observed making purchases inside the store we start looking for or any kind
of property that either of them may have connections to in that area we know that
Ashley her maiden name is Brit so we type in the last name Brit and it brings up Brit
Road the police discovered Ashley's family owned a farm on Brit Road just north of the gas station where she was
caught on [Music] camera it's nowhere near where Ashley said they were this is not the farm in East Milton
she's talking about it's in cantonement Bula area here in esami County detectives started to analyze the
inconsistencies in Ashley's version of events they also grew suspicious of her eagerness to help during the
investigation Ashley called several times inquiring about the case she would ask what we were up to or what we had
going on or if we' made any progress no one else during the investigation called
as half as many times as Ashley [Music] did someone being too involved in the investigation by constantly calling the
police is something that I've seen before and it is again one of those circumstances where the person's
probably overcompensating so they are trying to show that they're concerned about their friend what they're trying
to sort of theatrically perform is the worry friend but what they're obviously doing because that's not how normal
people behave is they're obviously trying to get information about the case so that they can adjust their story as
needed and almost certainly doing something as unusual as this is going to raise suspicions rather than qu
them her bank records enabled the police to track down surveillance footage of Ashley making a series of unusual
transactions you can see a large sum of money in her her hand that she was depositing into the ATM
machines we also received the image of the check that uh Ashley had deposited and you'll see various uh
images of Ashley making various transactions crucial footage at the ATM revealed inconsistencies in Ashley's
version of events we get Ashley deposit depositing Taylor's checks Taylor had checks made
out to her in her name and yet Ashley's on camera depositing them we look at Taylor's signatures
spanning back months and the signature on the back of the check that Ashley's depositing doesn't match the
signature in another breakthrough Ashley was caught on camera at a Home Depot store the day after Taylor disappeared
she had an unusual shopping list in the cart is concrete and potting soil this is an employee that's she's got
helping her push the cart and then she goes up and pays cash for the items when the police checked out
another one of Ashley's interview claims they were baffled Ashley told us that Taylor had
taken an Uber from her house we investigated that we learned she hadn't used Uber and quite some time we also
checked other ride share companies and none of those had any kind of records with Taylor still missing the way Ashley
MacArthur behaved was in complete contrast to Taylor's girlfriend Cassandra on the other hand we ask her
pass codes to her phone she gives them right over we ask her for consent to search everything she signs everything
open book it became quite apparent that Cassandra wasn't involved in Taylor's disappearance
Taylor's ex-husband Jeff Wright was in the Army and many miles away at the time of her
disappearance detective gigliotti was able to make contact with his command up at his base and confirm that he's been
at work the whole time and he hasn't left U that area so he was it was easy to rule him out as any kind of potential
suspect in the case with Cassandra and Jeff in the clear all the evidence seemed to be
pointing towards Ashley Arthur the big question was is Ashley lying to us because she's hiding
Taylor helping her hide out or is she lying to us cuz she hurt her the police decided they needed
another conversation with Ashley at the same time they planed to search three Key Properties including
the farm on Brit road we have teams in place to execute all those at one time we o have myself and gigliotti we are
going to conduct the interview here at the police department everything was riding on this
carefully planned operation the police needed Ashley to reveal what really happened to Taylor
and they needed to find hard evidence from the properties being [Music] searched hi how you been
doing when we were conducting an investigation we come across like I said several things we wanted to confront her
with the information at 12:10 you are in here M we know that your aunt and uncle and
Kyle own the farm there on Brit Road well at that point first time really ever in our interviews with
Ashley she changed her story Ashley initially told us she went out to East Milton well you look at the
cell records and it never went out to East Milton it's showing that you're probably near that farm or if not at
that farm and you're there when this is the time when you're telling us that you're probably Milton or headed towards
the milon CU it's uh 12:10 in the afternoon 12:46 you're still covering the farm
1301 you're out here for quite a while then you leave around at least at 1344 what were youall doing out there at
this Farm we know y'all were there we picked up some um stuff that Taylor had there that we
had what was that she had store um some kind of lock box that she had actually now tells us that the two did in fact go
to the Brit Road farm that day this is the first time she'd ever mentioned this why would you not tell us that or
because she asked me not to tell anyone ever you know we're investigating a missing person you called us dozens of
times why not say hey we went out to this location why why hold back and her excuse was is that Taylor just didn't
want us to know that she went out there which doesn't make any sense so you're the only one that was with her on
this day at this farm that you did not disclose to us I didn't do anything tell you this if she's at that farm we're
going to find her because we're executing the search one out there right now that's fine but she's not going to
be there where is she at I don't know where she in her second interview when she came in she had a completely
different demeanor she was not as forthcoming she clearly did not want to answer questions and she clearly did not
want to be as helpful as she was initially the police were holding out for information from the search teams
that would enable them to keep Ashley MacArthur in custody we're trying to prolong the
interview as long as possible it was a very long time for during the interview of not being
contacted with Ashley holding back detective Chad willite decided to go in hard me for a second don't cross the
legs when I removed her chair and turned it around I wanted to break down whatever defense she had if I can get
her thinking about how uncomfortable she is maybe she will slip up me for a second don't cross your legs
on for a second don't let us tell your story we're going to this is going to tell us what
happened this is exactly the kind of thing that you'd expect with What's called the read model
of interrogations which is more akin to good cop bad cop than other forms of interrogations or interviews and this
idea of sort of physically cornering somebody or physically intimidating someone by changing the room is very in
line with that technique don't let us tell us something that may not be true tell us what happened I think at
this point I need an attorney because it seems to be that you'll think that I did
something to her okay I respect that with no solid evidence to keep Ashley in custody they had to release
her it almost feels to a degree like you failed right because as an investigator
you want that confession uh and we didn't get it everything was now resting on the search at the farm on Brit Road
detective gigliotti made contact with the team on site I happen to call one of the sergeants at the time while he's on
the phone with me he's yelling in the background we have a body unquestionably we have
Remains the police had to confirm who the remains belonged to a unique item of jewelry helped
identification with had pictures of Taylor's necklace she commonly wore uh Cassandra said she was wearing it the
day of The Disappearance and sure enough the necklace was [Music] there Taylor's Body was discovered on
the other side of a fence in an area that was kind of wooded she was wrapped up in a tarp
she was covered with concrete and potting soil I will never forget the day that they announced you know they had found
her body it was difficult cuz Not only was she murdered that her body was put in a
grave that she just left her there to be it's it's awful they were able to determine pretty
quickly what appeared to be uh bullet wound to the back of the skull the remains are taken over the
medical examiner's office to confirm cause of death which was later determined to be a gunshot wound to to
the back of Taylor's head once the body was located everyone was on board that it was time to arrest Ashley and
prosecute her Bridget Myers Jensen led the case against Ashley in the summer of 2019 it
was very significant to law enforcement and to the prosecution of the case that Taylor's Body was actually located
Ashley could have used any defense I mean she could have come up with anything if we didn't have a body uh to
to prove that Taylor had been actually murdered the video surveillance footage proved vital for the
prosecution the surveillance footage of the store and Home Depot not only gave us the evidence that Ashley was
purchasing concrete and potting soil but what it does is shows us the accuracy of
the cell phone records right because defense Council later in trial paints this picture that the cell phone records
can be inconsistent and inaccurate and we can show that well in fact if the cell phone records show
Ashley's phone covering the Tom Thumb and she's in fact on the surveillance footage at the time similar to The Home
Depot and surveillance is corroborating that that these in these phone records are in fact very accurate it also helps
show the jury there's always that doubt well someone else could have deposited those checks into Ashley's account but
when they're on camera it's hard to refute the fact that she deposited them a range of cameras were used to help
capture Taylor's killer but the question remains why would Ashley MacArthur kill Taylor
Wright Taylor had withdrawn on approximately $100,000 from a bank account that she should not have
withdrawn based on court proceedings with her ex-husband in an effort to hide the
money I believe she gave the money to Ashley MacArthur to hold Ashley at the time was having an
affair and Ashley was showering this man with gifts the motive of the homicide was greed essentially Ashley Arthur was
in a position where Taylor needed her money back but Ashley couldn't give it back because Ashley had spent it
all we always want a profound psychological reason for murder and it rarely exists it's often much more
trivial and very often it's about things like money this shouldn't be the kind of
thing that motivates murder and yet much smaller debts have also led to similar outcomes
when I found out what had happened to Taylor it was devastating devastating that somebody she obviously loved and
cared for did that to her that they would kill her over something is small as money you
it's just just awful after a week-long trial the verdict came in Ashley MacArthur was
found guilty of first-degree premeditated murder she was sentenced to life in prison women killing women is so rare
that we have almost no research on it at all but we can take a little bit of the
research on women who perpetrate violent crimes and what we know is that women who perpetrate gun crimes are more
likely to score high in certain Psychopathic traits so they're more likely for example to be low in empathy
they're more likely to be manipulative and that is a package that makes women more likely to offend violently using
guns but even that we we really know very little about why women perpetrate violent offenses because so few women
[Music] do Taylor was an amazing person she had a huge heart and would she loved you she
loved EIG and she she was just a breath of fresh air she was very special to me yep she was there through a lot of
things in life I want people to know that she was a good person and that her life
mattered okay give me a kiss I love you [Music] Ashley and Taylor were just friends new
friends but what do you do if you feel a friend is not good for your mental [Music]
health there's so much in novels and movies and anecdotes from people around us about romantic relationships and
breakups and what those look like and how to end a relationship but there's so little comparatively on how to end a
friendship or how to deal with a friend who's not behaving appropriately or who you're not getting on with anymore um or
who's manipulating you and I think there's a real knowledge Gap there and a skills Gap and what do you even do if
you've got a bad friend how do you get rid of this person in our next case a friend of a
friend proves fatal after being secretive about his past in the UK tin and wear [Music]
Sunderland a port city on the northeast coast of [Music] England home to Michelle
Hansen Michelle was 47 years old she had five kids and one grandchild she was very close to them all her children
often spoke about sharing secrets for her they found it very comfortable to talk to her and they felt like they
could tell her anything Michelle was known as a very um outgoing person she had quite a lot of friends she was very
family orientated love going to parties L singing she was generally the life and
soul of the party in early 2022 Michelle invited friends and family to come over for a
drink but after going quiet the day after a family member checked in on her and was confronted by a devastating
scene Michelle's body was found by a family member face down on the floor she had about 29 uh stab wounds to her neck
and paid to have blood force trauma to her head as well there was a br and plate nearby and
she was found with porcelain in in her hair as well it was a brutal attack that ended
in Michelle's death when the police arrived they cleared the scene taped the area off
looked around for evidence any sort of forensic details that they could find they found blood on a window pane
in the bathroom they also found empty bottles of alcohol the police sent the evidence off
for DNA testing Michelle's body was sent for an autopsy a family member told the police
about a possible suspect who was seen with Michelle the night she had friends over
[Music] shell appeared to be quite comfortable in his company she was snuggling up to
him she even was said to have uh looked like she found him quite attractive when
the family member left she said that she was fine the family member gave the police a
rough description of the man and his name Alexander Carr the police urgently needed to speak
with Alex as soon as Alex car has been highlighted as a suspect or a person of interest
then the police will have gone and started to investigate where he might be his whereabouts he was a current student so
they were seen if he'd had student lodgings or contacted his friends on the call police started looking for
surveillance footage tracking back to the time Michelle's body was found they were aware that he didn't
have access to a vehicle so the obvious way in which someone would leave the locality would be to use public
transport on December 2nd a man matching Alexander car's description was captured
by bus surveillance cameras Ray Evans is a forensic image analyst who works regularly with the
police we know that he's a white male we can see that he has a shaved head the shape approximately of his
ear he's wearing a backpack that would give the police um a little more information so the footage could be used
for tracking the time the date and the location we can then utilize that footage to track people across a
location for a certain amount of time that would be very useful cuz it it would place somebody in a particular
position the bus footage also helped the police work out where Alexander Carr was
heading buses have a you know specific routes if they've got footage of him getting on the bus being on the bus and
then getting off the bus it would tell you approximately which direction he's going in it's all about getting that
little bit of information that allows the police to assess what the next step might be of a person that they're
looking for was very very useful indeed Professor Coral dando is a forensic psychologist the footage revealed
important details about Alexander Carr which proved helpful for the police investigation it reveals information
about him about his distinctive walk we refer to that as a gate so the way in which people walk has been used quite a
lot to identify individuals even when we can't see their face so he's got this sort of swagger his feet are turned out
and he does swagger from one side to another and it is quite an unusual walk as the last known person to see
Michelle the police needed to speak with Alexander Carr but he was proving difficult to track
down Alexander car was known as a a bit of an urban survivalist he was used to spend time outdoor a lot that was one of
his Hobbies he's had periods of homelessness and I think they've been at various
places around the country it would have taken them a while to track him down in terms of looking at all the particular
areas of the country that he might be but police received a tip off and moved in to raid the
property down this is footage from mobile phone it was filmed by a neighbor you'll notice that
they are armed police come the door down it's important to get the suspect quickly because if he turns out to be
the perpetrator the murderer then he's a danger to other people they didn't know if he was inside and
after several attempts to coax Alex out they entered the property Alex was not inside but the
police found a jacket heavily stained with Michelle's blood you wouldn't expect to see things
such as blood hair bodily fluids unless he'd been involved in some sort of violent incident with
her Alexander Carr was is now the prime suspect in Michelle's murder and he was on the
run a huge Manhunt was launched the police were trolling through CCTV footage the police were urging people
not to approach him if they saw him he was someone who enjoyed being outside he considered himself to be an urban
survivalist so no one knew way he could be at all with a killer on the loose news of
Michelle's death was met with sorrow and alarm no one could really believe what happened people had heard about the uh
the violent we that she she died there was a lot of fear and uh quite a lot of shock it was unclear why anyone would
murder such a well-loved member of the community Michelle's daughter Shannon Brown appealed to the public to help
catch her mom's killer my mom was a caring kind and loving person she would never hurt
anyone even if someone did something to her she will forgive them because she always saw the good in
people please if you have any information which can help the place with that investigation don't hesitate
to get in touch with them any little piece of information could help our mom deserves Justice thank
[Music] you the charity Crim Stoppers put Alexander Carr on their most wanted list
it offered a £10,000 reward for information leading to his arrest [Music] the police also made the decision to
release the footage from the bus the reason it's given to the public is to jog their memory to see if they've
seen this person on that particular day and that then gives the police something
that they can you know tie into and uh refer back to so it's it's useful as very useful as
reference obviously the the hope is that they will strike gold and someone says well I know that person very well and I
can vouch that um this is the person who I think it is but Alexander had slipped off the
radar he was on the run for quite a while and as the deers went by the police were growing more and more
concerned as were the community during the investigation the police received the DNA results from the
blood at the murder scene it was a direct match for Alexander Carr as the police dug further into Alexander
Carr's history they found a disturbing pattern of violence in 2010 car was sentenced to 3
and a half years in prison for a hammer attack it would be likely that someone that's got a background of attacking
another human being with a hammer violent nasty aggressive will go on to be offend
Alexander carrr posed a real danger to society and he was still on the loose 18 days in counting then the
police got another tip off there was information that car was in the north London area police then focused her
attention on the upper Hol railway station police moved in to arrest him you move move
move do not move police hands up Alex you got armed police pointing weapons at you laser guided sights on the canvas a
knife is used for Access we're going to open this door you do not move okay you follow instructions you
understand do not move no on the left understand three loaded automatic rifles get stay where you are pointed inside
the tent typically one wouldn't want to go and do a complex arrest such as this in
Woodland in the dark he's a known violent offender with a violent history so they will be concerned that he's got
a weapon anything about your person which could harm us sh no no good and they will also be concerned for their own
safety as well as his safety the W how know at this particular point he's managed to evade arrest for a certain
number of weeks so that may have given him confidence that actually he was being very smart being very clever and
maybe didn't think he was ever going to be apprehended Alexander Carr was transported back to
the Northeast David Huntley was in the court on the first day of his trial when I arrived at court he seemed
quite disheveled and quite bewildered uh didn't really seem to know where he was
at the time he'd been on the run for over two weeks living in a tent so he he wasn't in the best frame of mind at that
point everyone was quite pleased that this suspect had finally been caught during the trial the full details
of what happened on the the night of Michelle's murder became clear Michelle met car earlier that
night she invited him into her home they shared drinks they had a laugh together
a family member actually uh arrived at the property as well saw them both when the family member left Paul was left
alone with Michelle that's when he carried out the brute La tuck he chalked her smashed a plate over
our head he beat her up pretty badly as well as stabbing her around 29 times in the
neck after the murder he tried to find a key to get out uh couldn't find one had
to resort to climb out a bathroom window and Escape that way at first Alexander Carr pleaded
guilty to manslaughter with diminished responsibility Alex car has quite a complex psychological back
ground in the past he has had a lot of mental health episodes he has been diagnosed with
post-traumatic stress disorder and psychosis and also some borderline personality
disorders there can be triggers that can trigger a serious episode or incident and when that happens that individual
then can suffer um catastrophic drop in their mental health and that can sometimes uh result in very violent
Behavior despite KN finew well about his mental health condition his his mental illnesses his previous psychosis uh he
knew that if he consumed drinking drugs that it would affect him badly and he chose on that night to to make that
decision and self-medicate um and and do exactly what he knew he shouldn't have done and that was drinking and and
taking drugs and it ended in the worst way possible for Michelle Alexander Carr pleaded guilty
to Michelle Hansen's [Music] murder he was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of 19
years Michelle's family were were left devastated and completely broken he took the mother's life away from them and uh
they'll never forgive him for that they've been left traumatized and they'll never be able to get that time
back that they shared with her [Music]
