The Plot to Kill Jamie Faith | Full Episode | Forensic Files

[Music] all new at 5:00 Dallas Police say that they are very concerned about the city's
murder numbers homicides to say it was a shocking murder would be an understatement broad daylight seven
shots one person killed we see murders all day this one looked different a violent killing in
North Oak Cliff involving an American Airlines manager Jennifer and her husband Jamie were walking their dog
7:30 in the morning at that time someone approached from behind and simply started shooting Jamie Faith was shot
seven times they they sound one after another B you knew it was a gunshot yeah you can
smell in the air the gunpowder they G bow all over we got a phone call from our mutual friend started the
conversation with Jamie's gone and I'm like what do you mean Jam's gone and he like he's dead what are you talking
about so I started right away digging in trying to figure out give me details give me scenario what happened three
times to the Head three times to the chest and once to the groin and then turns to the wife knocks her down takes
the time to pull out duct tape and wrap her wrists Jennifer says that duct tape is used
to wrap around her hands to actually grab her and take her rings I went to that house Monday morning I briefly
spoke with Jennifer faith I asked her can you tell me what happened she said it was
awful here's a guy from small town Magano Wisconsin 7:30 in the morning residential
area a theft something's not right somebody would have committed a murder to get a ring that may be worth $3,000
$22,000 doeses that make sense right this isn't Kim Kardashian downtown Paris coming out of a hotel for a photo shoot
with a $5 million watch a stranger police believe may have killed the American Airlines technology director on
that Friday morning the one thing that entered our mind was because it was during the pandemic we thought maybe it
was a disgruntled employee that he had just laid off first time I found out about this case I heard it on the news
and as soon as I saw it I thought that's a hit a hit as in like a professional h
a professional hit because it didn't make any sense I've been practicing criminal law for almost 30 years and
none of it made sense who would want him dead nobody [Music] [Music] I hear the woman screaming for her life
that's terrible it sound like a movie so I hurry up and call the police saying hurry and come I think my neighbors just
got shot it was October 9th 2020 and residents of Oak Cliffe were still absorbing the shocking murder of Jamie
faith Dallas police detectives began going house to house detectives need any and
all information that might be related to the case ja's own front door security camera captured this haunting photo as
he left his house with Jennifer and their dog Maggie it was taken seconds before Jamie was shot to death as heard
on this audio other cameras captured images of the Killer's getaway truck leaving the
scene a black Nissan Titan pickup truck and it had something unique on its back window what was that police initially
told us about the te on the back window here in Dallas if you see a t on the back window it's for the baseball team
the Texas Rangers Steve picket a reporter for cbs1 in Dallas Fort Worth noted that the
cameras did not pick up the truck's license plate and so the effort begins to find this truck right that's right
absolutely who is driving a black Nissan Titan with that tea emblem on the back window for those who knew Jamie Faith
the big question was not only who had committed the murder but why Jamie by all accounts was a
funloving guy Jamie was the sweetest person and I said something's not right something wasn't
right Shimona Jackson and her wife Melissa Gonzalez who lost her hair due to cancer treatments lived next door to
Jamie and Jennifer for years but moved when the pandemic hit they needed more space for their seven adopted children
the first time I met them we all introduced ourselves and they were like do you have kids and I was like yeah we
have a lot of kids is it true that the faith house was a really fun place for your kids to go
yes Jennifer Faith instantly bonded with Shimona Melissa and their adopted children at least in part because she
was also adopted the face welcomed them like family inviting them to swim anytime
they liked in the Faith's backyard pool oh they love to go swimming that sometimes they spend the night over she
would just leave us the code and we'd come in through the back gate swim give me a sense of what uh Jennifer
Faith was like she was actually pretty fun I've never seen her get mad would you describe them as a loving
couple yes yes on the morning of the murder a cousin of Melissa called her with the
Dreadful news they rushed to the Faith home Jaime's lifeless body was still on the street right the way I noticed a
gunshot to the Head but he was laying there just in the street no covering no nothing it was a
heartbreaking um CU you hear somebody tell you that someone's passed but to see him there lifeless after we had just
seen them and uh it was hard to believe two states away in Arizona Teresa and Ross Jensen who had known
Jamie for years were floored by the news and the two of us just stared at each other for a little while in
what Teresa Jensen and Jamie Faith hail from the village of mwano Wisconsin and were classmates through high school and
college he later introduced Teresa to her husband Ross a close college friend 16 years later we said Jamie
literally changed our Liv we never we never would have met yep jimie may have been a successful
Matchmaker but he insisted that serious relationships were not for him he considered himself a confirmed Bachelor
for as long as we knew him he said I'm never getting married get married never having kids I don't want a part of it
but that changed in 205 and then he met Jennifer the attraction was instant in terms of the commitment and the
relationship and that was there that was there right off the bat they were two peas in a pod and that notion about not
wanting children Jamie bonded with Jennifer's then 8-year-old daughter Amber from her first marriage and I
remember thinking to myself it's interesting for a guy that didn't want kids how he stepped right in there and
he would go to the dance recital and super supportive the two got married married
in Las Vegas in 2012 and when Amber turned 18 Jamie legally adopted her he was working for American Airlines
in Arizona and Jennifer worked in healthc care administration I believe all of our friends and mutual
friends were very accepting of her Jamie Jennifer and Amber continued living in Arizona until
2017 when Jamie got promotion and they moved to Dallas he seemed very happy yep so did she they got along great and I
mean that's all you want for your friends you know be happy but the good times ended in gunfire that October
morning it was the day after the couple celebrated the 15th anniversary of their
first date in later news reports Jennifer said she was having a hard time coping with
Jaime's murder I'm not supposed to be widowed at 48 you know Jennifer told cops that the shooter
was wearing a blue mask and a blurry image was captured by that security camera near the back of the faith house
but the best lead was that black Nissan truck with the distinctive white tea on the back window
I have three dogs that I walk three four times a day what seemed like was a completely
random act it could have been any of us Jennifer steelan and Jenna Wilson live in the same oakcliff neighborhood where
Jamie Faith was Gunn down a man they could relate to learned that he was in it at a major airline my husband is in
it at a major airline they were walking their dog a few blocks from us I was just go oh my
gosh this could have been us though many neighbors didn't know the faiths personally they immediately stepped up
to support Jennifer and her daughter Amber we have a really amazing community in Oak Cliff the day after the murder
Jenna reached out to Jennifer and began coordinating a meal train to provide vegan meals as Jennifer requested how
many different families were contributing food would you estimate goodness got to be over 50 oh definitely
if you know what happened I need I need that for closer as Jennifer Faith appealed to the public for information
money was pouring into a GoFundMe account set up by Jennifer's feeling it came in fast it was shocking to see how
much people were contributing how much money was raised for the go over $60,000 father we thank you for the gift
of this amazing man Jennifer held two funerals for Jamie one in Dallas and one in Phoenix each was meticulously planned
they had all of the displays out little matchbooks for people to take cards for people to take
coasters more than anything I've ever seen at any other funeral while she was mourning Jennifer kept pressing the
public for more information about the murder of her husband truck is absolutely critical somebody has got to
know whose truck this is it's a black Nissan Titan extended cab it had a Texas Ranger sticker in the back
window as they do with every homicide investigation detectives looked into Jennifer's background they asked for her
cell phone and found that in April 2020 6 months before the October shooting Jennifer had texted a friend to say she
had gotten back in touch with an ex-boyfriend named Darren law enforcement goes through the phone and
they look in her phone book and they find the name Darren Lopez Jim Holland is a retired Texas Ranger and a CBS News
consultant they're going through and they're finding out every single thing they can about both these people really
discovering them Darren Lopez and Jennifer had dated in high school and reconnected in early 2020 Lopez had a
family of his own and was a special forces Army veteran who earned a purple heart and suffered a brain injury from a
roadside bomb in Iraq that killed 19 soldiers in his unit he is a military veteran going through a divorce himself
uh living in an isolated part of Tennessee uh raising his daughters [Applause] [Music]
authorities learned Lopez owned this 20 acre property in Cumberland Furnace Tennessee and there was something
else Darren Lopez owns a Nissan Titan pickup that just so happens to be black in
color a Nissan Titan the same make and model as the gunman's getaway truck in Jamie Faith's
murder Texas authorities reached out to law enforcement in Tennessee and they actually conducted aerial surveillance
of Darren's house Christy Jack is a prominent Texas defense attorney we asked to review this case and lo and
behold there's this truck with the tea on the back window the white tea the white tea all this time we thought Texas
indeed it was for the University of Tennessee but authorities didn't arrest Lopez after finding his truck they
continued to investig and build their case digging into his phone records what they find is this enormous amount of
communication between Jennifer faith and Darren Lopez sometimes they're communicating more than 500 times a
day but starting the afternoon of October 8th the day before Jaimie was killed Darren and Jennifer stopped
talking for approximately 28 hours that same day Lopez told his daughters he was going out of town on a
hunt trip for a few days according to debit card records he filled up at a gas station near his home
set his GPS for the facei house and headed west for the 10-hour drive to Dallas he doesn't realize it but he's
bringing law enforcement along with the ride with all the evidence he's leaving behind he's leaving this Trail in some
points it's you know giant markers and signs and others it's little breadcrumbs they can actually document where Darren
Lopez was they've seen security video of him at a convenience or a gas station surveillance photos from an
Arkansas gas station show Lopez wearing a blue mask the same color mask Jennifer
Faith told police the killer War at 2:19 a.m. the next morning GPS data shows he arrived at the Faith home
a security camera captured those grainy images of him at the vacant house next door it would make you wonder a lot of
different things you know the level of patience that someone has to you know be able to Stage 5 hours early and sit
there and wait for this murder to transpire at 7:30 a.m. when the Fai came out to walk their dog
Maggie cops say he ambushed them killing Jamie investigators say he then drove 650 Mi back home to Tennessee law
enforcement has to figure out why did he do it did he do it because of his own motives because of you know his love for
Jennifer Faith or did someone else ask him to do it [Music] in January 2021 3 months after Jamie
Faith was murdered Dallas detectives had discovered evidence including thousands
of texts that suggested Jennifer and Darren Lopez had a profound connection bordering on Obsession despite not
having seen each other for decades you have Jennifer who's you know happily married to Jamie and she's carrying out
this you know tremendous amount of communication with her former boyfriend there's no bigger motive for murder than
love or wanting to be with someone else and the texts weren't the only evidence against Lopez detectives also had that
cell phone data placing him near the crime scene and GPS coordinates that showed his exact route they could track
him from Tennessee to Dallas and back to Tennessee to the authorities it all added up to a murder charge now new this
morning an arrest made 3 months after an American Airlines employee was gunned down while walking his dog in Dallas
Police say Darren Lopez Sergeant Joseph Calhoun was there when police pulled Lopez over on January 11th 2021 in Dixon
Tennessee not far from his home he appeared to be nervous um but at the same time he was very quiet inside the
vehicle agents say they found a face mask the same color as the one Jennifer had told police the gunman wore Le she
says that the man had black eyes and was wearing a blue mask as Sergeant Calhoun
transported Lopez to the local jail the investigative team headed for his house their authorities say they found this 45
caliber handgun we know that Jamie was shot with a 45 caliber handgun round authorities say ballistic test
later matched the gun found in Lopez's house to shell casings found at the murder scene even more damning
authorities say that traces of Jaime's blood were found on the gun why the heck would he throw that gun
away you know I don't know if it wasn't some kind of momento some kind of symbol
of his love for her or what he was willing to do to have her and on the day that he is arrested what is he charg
chared with what he's charged with is a gun crime a federal gun crime and at the
state level he's charged with murder he pleaded not guilty to both charges and was transferred to the Dallas County
Jail where he was held on $1 million bail at this point police had become increasingly suspicious of Jennifer was
she involved in the murder plot or covering up for Lopez after the fact on the day of Lopez's arrest Dallas
detectives brought her in for more questioning is that just a coincidence no law enforcements would have Ed that
exactly I mean everything is coordinated uh to ensure that Jennifer doesn't know
that Darren's been arrested detectives say Jennifer denied ever having a sexual relationship with Darren Lopez but
admitted the two communicated every day and the volume was astounding in the six
months leading up to Darren Lopez's arrest cops say the two Tech texted each other
116,000 times when did they have time to sleep when did they have time to eat it
was constant they made sure that they communicated with each other all day long Homeland Security agents dug into
Lopez's phone and recovered text messages where Jennifer and Lopez even discussed deleting texts where they're
talking to one another about factory resetting their phone after Lopez texted Jennifer that he had
deleted texts she wrote big smile over here at that Lopez's phone contained a lot of sexting between the two and many
words of Love Darren wrote I love you with all of my heart and Jennifer responded sleep my angel holding you
tight I mean it goes us so far that uh they're both telling each other good night and talking about you know eating
chips and salsa but Jennifer Faith was not arrested from the start she had played The Grieving Widow remember that
TV interview where Jennifer pleaded for help in finding the getaway truck truck is absolutely critical somebody has got
to know who truck this is because investigators now knew that Jennifer later woke up panicked that the tea was
still on Lopez's truck she wrote something is eating away at me telling me you need to take the sticker out of
the back window of the truck at some point he responds to that text message it says sticker done meaning it's been
removed he's taking it off Jennifer was euphoric Oh yay she texted and then hours later I feel so much better it
looks like conspiracy it looks like a connection between those two individuals who are working together to ensure they
cover their tracks my gut was screaming at me I said hey things things aren't adding up if you're going to kill
someone you're going to kill the witness we wondered why Jennifer hadn't gotten shot we asked her why didn't he shoot
you and she said I think he didn't have any more bullets investigators also learned what
Jennifer had been saying to Lopez in December 2020 after she failed to collect Jaime's
$629,000 life insurance policy Jennifer texted Lopez they aren't processing the claim yet because detective Walton told
them I couldn't be ruled out as a suspect so I called him and basically said what the
f she had the audacity the boldness to contact the police and be righteously indignant as to why she didn't know what
was going on with the investigation and why she had not already been cleared as a
suspect Jennifer was nothing if not bold after Jamie died she began showering Lopez who was in financial
distress with cash and gifts she got some of that money from the GoFundMe account set up to help her deal with
Jaime's loss she drained that money within two months of people donating that sum records show that Jennifer paid
Lopez cash through a venmo account bought airline tickets for him and his daughters and allowed Lopez to use her
credit cards in an email she wrote please don't hesitate to use them for whatever you need this email is Jennifer
directly to Darren here's both of my major credit cards MX has no limit and I think the
Visa has like $35,000 limit I pay them both off every month so you never need to worry about
them being declined There's No Limit here to do it she wants him to do Jennifer seemingly was doing anything
she could to keep Lopez in her Corner even after he was arrested she sent a message to him and she sent through a
third party and she was telling him that she would always love him that she would
always be there for him no matter what happened but was it love or loyalty Jennifer was after she wants to make
sure that he does not talk go inside the case at 48 [Music] hours.com in early 2021 Darren Lopez was
behind bars in the Dallas County Jail and authorities felt they had a solid murder case against him but Jennifer
Faith remained free not charged with any Crime After Darren Lopez is arrested does he turn on Jennifer no no in no way
shape or form he's being the good soldier right yeah he's the Knight he has a sense of Duty and this honor
towards her prosecutors went ahead and built their case against Jennifer without
Lopez's cooperation and on February 24th 20121 48-year-old Jennifer faith is now
facing obstruction of justice charges related to the murder investigation of her husband Jennifer Faith was arrested
but she was not charged with homicide she was charged with obstruction of justice an in-house camera shows her
being booked at the Dallas County Jail the obstruction of justice means if you're tampering with or you're
destroying evidence to prevent its availability in a later trial or to to prevent it being available at all which
is what she was doing in destroying or deleting text messages on her phone or asking Lopez to take that t- sticker off
his truck's window the obstruction charge wasn't enough for Jaime's friend Ross Jensen and I said that wasn't the
charge that I was expecting I said well that's it that's what the charge is Jennifer later pleaded not guilty I
think the police were being very thorough in their investigation and they wanted to bring her into
custody then she doesn't have another opportunity to destroy any further evidence and authorities may have been
glad they did in Jennifer's house they found computers containing a cache of emails that took the investigation in a
whole different direction you know the emails get absolutely bizarre the strangest and most disturbing emails
came from an account in Jamie Faith's name and on the surface it appeared as though Jamie sent these messages most of
the emails are too explicit to show on television and they contain explosive claims that jime was physically and
sexually abusing Jennifer and there was more the emails were addressed to Darren
Lopez revealing an apparent connection between the two men in Jennifer's life it's Jamie Faith sending messages to
Darren that he is going to harm his wife he's going to sexually abuse his wife and he wants
Darren Lopez to see it he writes I am finally going to get what I want from her this weekend he was wanting Darren
to believe that he was going to sexually assault her in all sorts of ways the highly charged emails seem designed to
taunt Lopez to challenge him to action enjoy knowing you can't do an effing thing about it he provoking him he was
provoking him he was goting him as investigators looked more closely at the emails they discovered that some were
coming from a second email address in the name of one of Jennifer's male friends that friend's emails
corroborated the claims of abuse some even had photos attached supposedly depicting what Jaimie had done to
Jennifer pictures that showed injuries pictures that showed injuries and claiming this this is my body this is
what he's doing to me right and there were messages from the friend asking Lopez for help in getting
Jennifer away from jimie Jim Holland now a retired Texas Ranger says the emails clearly made Lopez fear for Jennifer's
safety Lopez wrote to the friend's account I know I won't feel better about her situation until she is away from him
or she lets me put a bullet in Jaime's head I keep offering and she keeps telling me no laugh out loud it's really
pushing daring into this protective mode where he has to help her he has to be the hero he has to save her Holland says
one of Jim's wounds suggests the emails had their desired effect on Darren Lopez
that gunshot to the groin I would guess that there's some type of sexual background or connotation to the murder
based on the shot to the groin you know we sometimes use the phrase that you know you couldn't sell this if you were
a screenwriter in Hollywood it's like a psychological Thriller do you agree yeah
I mean this is stuff that I don't think anyone could really make up there there's so many layers to the onion you
know fact is is better than Fiction at times in this in this case for sure prosecutors weighed the emails
along with all the other evidence they were collecting against Jennifer including her payments and gifts to
Lopez and in September 2021 7 months after she was charged with obstruction Jennifer was charged a
second time Jennifer faith is now charged with murder for hire a federal offense a Dallas woman accused of
orchestrating her husband's murder could face the death penalty I said that's the right charge
that's what I was waiting for in their indictment prosecutors laid out the murder for case against Jennifer
revealing details of the vile email sent to Darren Lopez and a shocking secret about who sent them it was not Jamie at
all that was sending these messages someone else was someone else posing as Jamie pretending to be Jamie it was
Jennifer all along [Music] [Music] when Jennifer Faith was finally charged with murder For Hire prosecutors
delivered that bombshell Jennifer was the one who wrote all those horrible emails to Darren
Lopez there is no question that Jennifer Faith was the puppet master and Darren Lopez was her puppet pulling the strings
and orchestrating her husband Jim's murder it is mindboggling the wherewithal you have to have to help
cultivate fake people fake emails pretending to be your husband to try to manipulate Darren Lopez I haven't seen
anything like that in a very very long time just my mouth on the ground couldn't believe
what she had done the mystery is why what drove Jennifer to want Jamie dead she seemingly had it all a husband
and daughter who loved her Financial Security and a happy home I think the grass is always greener and there were a
million reasons why on top of it you combine his life insurance and his 401k that's more than a million dollar she
wanted more people always want more they always want more than what they have they always think having more having
different having a different person having someone exciting is going to be better than what they have and 48 Hours
found that incredibly it wasn't the first time Jennifer went down this path she did the exact same thing to me we
track down this man Rick lob who was married to her in the early 2000s Jes is just the most evil person
I've ever come in contact with he says shortly after they began dating they took a trip to Disneyland
the so-called happiest place on Earth where Jennifer spun an ugly story of how she'd been abused by her first husband
physical mental emotional sexual just it was shocking it definitely came to a point where
I want to kill him and that lasted for a long time but then he says Jennifer changed her mind it was like oh
you can't do this to my daughter's dad there is no evidence of any abuse Rick says Jennifer wouldn't go to the police
we reached out to her first husband but got no response what is it about Jennifer faith that was so irresistible
to men do you think well there's something about her personality that really Drew men in she had a way about
her of portraying herself as a victim of something and Rick admits he fell for it
was he just the dry run yeah I think so I think ultimately where her failure was in Rick
is this wasn't a guy who's capable of killing someone now is Darren a person that you
would look at and think he's capable of killing someone a US Special Forces operative for more than 20 years in the
military who's been in combat yeah this is a guy you know is going to get the mission done shortly after the murder
for higher charge Holland says self-preservation kicked in and Jennifer Finally Revealed the details of her
intricate manipulative plot to have her husband killed Jennifer Faith decides to
accept a plea agreement she will cooperate with authorities on February 7th 2022 with attorney Toby shook by her
side Jennifer appeared in a Dallas courtroom and pleaded guilty to one count abuse of interstate comerce in the
commission of murder for hire in exchange for the guilty plea prosecutors agreed to take the death
penalty off the table and recommend a life sentence Jim Holland says even the guilty plea was vintage Jennifer she
can't allow herself to face the death penalty because she's incapable of killing herself because at the end of
the day that's the only person she really loves there was one important detail that authorities insisted be part
of that plea she has admit to the fact that her husband never abused her physically or sexually and as for those
photos she'd sent showing injuries she sent images that we know are stock images fake images they're not
real Jennifer also came clean about how she'd spent the GoFundMe money her supporters were devastated it's
heartbreaking it's heartbreaking do you feel that you were taken advantage of it's hard not to feel that way do you
feel betrayed it's hard not to feel that way what kind of person would do that a
Monster yeah a monster she may have used the GoFundMe account to pay Darren Lopez but court
records show that Jennifer did not pay for Jaime's funeral expenses and to this day owes
$6,500 what's more court records also show Jennifer has asked that $200,000 from Jaime's estate be put into
her prison commissary account it's a case of greed manipulation it's a tragedy all the way around she robbed
the community of someone that they respected she robbed her daughter of a father it was a very selfish act on so
many levels Jaime's parents and sister did not attend the hearing the family home was sold and Amber moved out of
Texas with their dog Maggie she still speaks to her mother twice a week I mean in the end Jennifer faith is the
only mother she'll ever know after Jennifer signed her plea deal Lopez also agreed to answer questions
and admitted killing Jaimie he told investigators he reconnected with Jennifer because he was in a very dark
place and initially never intended to reunite romantically or break up her family it's difficult to say which came
first whether it's the chicken or the egg whether their romance was Rec kindled at the same time as her
realization that he's the perfect Pawn now when you say romance it's very unusual romance one in which apparently
they physically were never together they were never physically together at that time but memories are powerful Lopez who
hasn't changed his not- guilty plea also told authorities the murder was Jennifer's idea his attorney has said
publicly that Jennifer took advantage of Lopez who suffered that traumatic brain
injury in the Army I almost feel that Jennifer is more responsible for Jaime's death and Darren because Darren was in
my opinion was just prayed upon by her and she manipulated him to do what she wanted
done those who knew and loved Jamie like former neighbor Melissa Gonzalez are still coping with his death he cared
about people it didn't matter what your race religion he didn't care about any of
that he was just an easygoing guy all right he was the guy for our kids that meant a lot the kind of guy that he was
you can't just get that anywhere friends Teresa and Ross Jensen are grieving too
he was just all around wonderful guy I was blessed to know him I hope that Amber carries some of Jamie forward I
hope she really does something unique and special with his memory [Music] who do you think is more responsible for
Jamie Faith's death a popular dentist and his wife on an African hunting Safari the shotgun
blast killed her almost instantly he said she was packing her gun it boggles the mind of two experienced hunters for
this to have been an accident was there a motive what happened on the Safari 48 hours Saturday on b s
