Kathy you have a condition called optic neuritis this is a condition where the optic nerve 1986 27 year-old Cathy Kumar
visited or ophthalmologist takes it back now Cathy Cathy thought she had a minor
problem but the doctors verdict was horrifying as a poor Cathy might be going blind a return it may not return
it was a very frightening experience he said I wouldn't run out right away and buy a white cane but it's very serious
and I was scared I mean I suddenly realized that there was a possibility that I could go blind I never I hadn't
taken it seriously all along Cathy's trouble had begun one week earlier I woke up one morning and I just saw that
there was a little area in my field of vision that I couldn't see out of and I just thought there was a speck on my eye
and that I tried to rub it away and nothing happened it didn't leave I didn't really think too much about it I
just thought it was unusual and I just let it go and throughout the day it didn't disappear and the next day it was
a little larger area by the end of the week when I couldn't see it all out of the eye I decided this probably isn't
normal and I probably should do something about it Cathy consulted to other ophthalmologists the diagnosis was
unanimous optic neuritis possible consequence blindness there is no known cure her doctor
recommended steroids Cathy was strongly opposed to the use of steroids and was determined to find an alternative she
consulted a doctor who was well versed in the mysterious methods of a man named Edgar Cayce Edgar Cayce became famous in
the 1920s as a diagnostician even though he had absolutely no medical training in
his lifetime case he made more than 9,000 diagnoses which he called readings but in a deep self-induced trance in
1937 Casey did a reading on this 18-year old one who suffered from scleroderma a
disfiguring chronic disease with no cure in which a person's skin hardens Cayce prescribed a number of treatments under
scleroderma went into immediate remission the rating was given in January and and the ratings were
followed to the letter in an interview 40 years later the woman gave Edgar Cayce full credit for her cure in June
in 1976 6 year-old Andrew Shenzhen suffered from severe psoriasis in desperation Andrews mother sought out a
doctor who utilized methods set down by Edgar Cayce 30 years earlier within four
months the psoriasis was gone [Music] today Andrew sands on his 21 years old and has had only one recurrence which
also responded to the Casey treatments some people write off edgar cayce secures his lucky coincidence the power
of suggestion acting on psychosomatic illness therefore those diagnosed with the disease of modern medicine cannot
cure or in some cases even explain edgar Casey's methods continue to hold out hope
Cayce died in 1945 even so each year thousands of inquiry small over the world Porter Casey's nonprofit Center in
Virginia Beach Virginia the thriving Center is an unlikely legacy for Edgar Cayce a quiet unpretentious man who came
of age in rural Kentucky at the turn of the century [Music] my father was a very ordinary person
he liked the garden he liked to fish we had Gardens whoever we lived he taught Sunday School I mean in everyday life
you wouldn't know him from anybody else it was only when he was asleep that he had extraordinary ability edgar cayce
discovered his mysterious ability when he was 13 time for lessons young man a borderline student Edgar fell asleep
over a spelling-book cabin what his father quiz dick Edgar could spell every word in the book and even knew the page
numbers for each word appeared cattle from that time all and all he had to do was sleep on his books at night and he
moved along very rapidly whether it was spelling or math or history or whatever and he became a exceptional student
rather than an average student in 1900 when Edgar was 23 he suddenly lost the power of speech for an entire year
physicians were unable to explain or cure his illness continue to breathe deeply as a last resort Casey's parents
convinced him to see a hypnotist his family physician attended and recorded the session in minut detail ward
Cayce sank into a deep sleep Edgar everyone present was stunned when for the first time in a year Edgar Cayce
spoken yes we have the body before us dad never had any formal medical training in fact his educational career
stopped it would be equivalent to the ninth grade now due to a paralysis of the interior muscles of the vocal cords
he would suggest things and describe things the parts of the body that he had no knowledge of this will remove the
trouble he started to talk and say yes we have the condition there's a constriction to the throat some
constriction of the blood flow so we will correct it the body will now awaken and when laying the hypnotist told him
to wake up he set up and coughed up a little blood and he could call and I think that was probably the first
reading though it was on himself hello a Casey's doctor persuaded him to attempt
diagnosis on other patients who had not responded to traditional medicine Casey agreed but the end result left him
disillusioned the problem developed when at the end of some of the readings people would start asking him questions
about who was going to what horse was going to win a race what was gonna happen in the commodity as a stock
market of the results of a ballgame and when he found out what had happened of what people were doing he said I'm
giving up Casey abandoned his psychic readings married and moved to Selma Alabama where
he worked as a photographer by 1914 he had two sons Edgar Evans and human when human was 8 years old he was
terribly injured in a darkroom explosion a local doctor held off little hope how
is he doc I've managed to remove most of the powder from his eyes but I found that the damage to the
tissue was so extensive that he may lose his sight my brother was playing in a in
the studio and dropped a match in a partially filled can of flashlights powder and it blew up in his face and
burned his eyes very badly the doctors examined him and said well we think we're gonna have to take out one eye
he's probably going to lose the sight in both of them and my brother said daddy give me a reading let's come into the
parlor for Edgar Cayce it was the ultimate test he had not attempted a reading in years could he now save his
own son from a life of blindness [Music] tannic acid would not be normally used under these circumstances he described
child an application for the eyes that included tannic acid baths well that was unheard of at the time and
the doctors thought it was too strong but they thought he was gonna lose his eyes anyway so they won't hurt to try
and when they first put it on where you then said this must be daddy's medicine it doesn't hurt it seemed like a miracle
within six weeks Hulan sight was completely restored word of the boys recovery spread edgar cayce
soon became famous in 1925 he moved to Virginia Beach Virginia within five years
Cayce established a center there to catalogue and interpret the readings the center received thousands of letters
most of them requests for readings although Casey normally did only two readings a day he was unable to turn his
back on those who seemed to need him so desperately he felt like he couldn't refuse people so he started doing two
and three and four and five and it got up to understand 9:00 at 10:00 a day and it was just too much for him
on the brink of exhaustion edgar cayce suffered a massive stroke he died on January 3rd 1945 leaving
behind more than 120,000 pages of readings which continued to serve as a wellspring of hope for those in search
of cures that may have eluded established medicine now Kathy an x-ray examination of your neck shows that you
have the deviation Kathy Kimora's optic neuritis was diagnosed in 1986 she went to dr. John Fergana a chiropractor in
New Jersey who was studied Edgar Cayce's readings for 30 years Cayce was very specific on what areas of
the spine to adjust vertebrae the fact that Cayce suggest that is completely a certain procedure for eye problems does
not mean that he specifically diagnosed it as optic neuritis he talked about vision problems blindness and that's
what I approached her not as optic neuritis per se would stretch you out a little bit sort of get the blood
circulating after I gave her an adjustment she called me the next day to tell me there's an improvement we
continued treatment and within seven days our sight was restored dr. Pagano believes that Edgar Casey's
treatments set forth in several readings given decades earlier brought back Kathy
Kimora's vision skeptics disagree I think much of the Cayce material is based upon illusion and I think there's
a placebo effect here at work often if you believe that someone is going to cure you you give them white to sugar
pills they might be cured so the power of a mind can have a powerful effect I do believe in the power of the mind and
I tried to will the sight back before I had gone to dr. Pagano and it didn't work and it was only after I had gone to
dr. Pagano and after he had adjusted my neck that that the sight came back I don't think that edgar cayce had any
psychic powers I don't think there's such a thing as psychic medicine and I don't I think wait one ought to be very
cautious about the claim that you can diagnose illnesses in some mystical way how can the unique life of Edgar Cayce
be explained he has been denounced as a soothsayer he has been heralded as a prophet the
medical establishment refuses to endorse Casey's methods yet at the same time is
unwilling to dismiss them before his death had your Casey wrote to a friend in my life and in the lives of
many will come in contact with the readings there seems to be much that is of help but you must judge for yourself
facts and results of the only measuring rods if this knowledge is to be of any lasting benefit it will require
open-minded intelligent research perhaps the readings of Edgar Cayce are one mystery that will be solved only through
patience medical evaluation and that greatest of all healers time next of aspiring actors is found dead in her Los
Angeles apartment the kkona ruled her death due to undetermined causes but some say it was murdered
[Music] Hollywood California The Dream Factory a fantasy land of myth and legend fueled
by the tantalizing fable that anyone can become famous overnight ever since the movies began beautiful
young girls have flocked to Hollywood lured by the glamor of Tinseltown on the promise of stardom it was this dream
which brought 23 year-old crystal Spenser to Los Angeles in the summer of 1982 for as long as she could remember
Crystal Spencer pictured his office not just an actress but a star sadlier searched for fame unfortunate only to
frustration failure and some say murder Christel in a Spencer was raised in the small Northern California town of Ukiah
when she was 8 her father died leaving her mother to raise three small children alone at 17 crystal dropped out of high
school and took a job to help support the family soon Hollywood beckoned and she moved to the Los Angeles area to
actively pursue her dream her early years were a struggle resulting only in a few bit parts Chris will quickly
realized that true stardom was elusive and perhaps unobtainable within two years of her arrival Krystal
reluctantly took a job as an exotic dancer to pay her bills on a good night she cleared up to $400 in tips but
crystal never fully accepted the fact that in essence she was a stripper sometimes she would just like start
crying like she felt degraded about herself of what she'd done in May of 1987 friends invited Krystal
to an outdoor barbecue she was eager to mix and mingle with people who might help further her acting
career there was something very alluring and compelling about Krystal that would
readily catch your eye she knew that she would become not only an actress but she'd become a very famous actress and
it's just a matter of time Krystal was taken with Anton Klein a would-be screenwriter and a PhD candidate in
history though they came from totally different backgrounds they soon fell in love
Anton took it upon himself to help Krystal broaden her horizons he introduced her to art galleries museums
and concerts Krystal was dazzled she loved classical music she loved fine art she wanted to know more about these
other wonderful things of life that she had never been exposed to before Pantone had no idea how Krystal earned
her living she walked to precarious tightrope discovering art and culture by day the immersed in Hollywood's dark
side by night [Applause] Kristen loved it she was very scared about him finding out she says well I
better change I better quit dancing then before he finds out I better quit doing
this before he finds out I want to get married I want to have a future I want to start you know doing something for my
life finally four months after they met and town found out about crystals other life my neighbor saw her dancing at the
club by the airport where she worked he said I saw their girls stage the other night no you couldn't have he said
that was her of course it was her and I was shocked he was very upset but he said it was okay he accepted it what
shocked her you know she didn't know what to say on Wednesday May 4th 1988 crystal was home with a cold
Anton stopped by and they talked about a promising offer she had received to work
in the Orient so what's happening with you I don't know um called yeah [Music] what do you mean
I'm not even sure if I have the job or not yeah she was very nervous but excited about
the possibility of traveling to Japan and seeing a whole different world than what she was accustomed to
I spoke to crystal about Thursday evening the next evening on the telephone are you doing you feeling
better that's good and the conversation lasted 115 minutes I said I'll be in touch and she said okay I hung up the
phone and now is the last time I ever spoke of her three days later Anton tried to reach crystal but continuously
got a busy signal an operator told him the receiver was off the hook [Music] [Music]
geography for crystals better not working today did she work here last night margin
confused Anton has seen the crystal had left for Japan without saying goodbye have you seen missile Spencer why have
you seen crystal Spencer do you know where she is I was expecting this is any day to receive a very excited phone call
from a very excited crystal saying it's wonderful here it's a whole different world here and instead I got a phone
call from the Burbank Police Department Friday the 13th of May 1988 police discovered the decomposed body of
Krystal Spencer she had been dead for nearly a week you are they had first just says she was
found dead in her apartment and they want to know when at last seen her and I said last saw her Wednesday
and how was she I said well she had a cold and they said they believe she died of natural causes an autopsy revealed no
trace of drugs or alcohol and crystal system there were no obvious signs of foul play or suicide the coroner ruled
that her death was the result of undetermined causes the body of Miss Spencer was in such an advanced state of
decomposition they were not able to ascribe the cause of death so they have no finding I was suspicious because I
did not believe a crystal Spencer died of illness and she was not a sick woman my last saw her or last spoke with her
she was a young woman for cold I was suspicious because the way I was told the body was found in an obscure corner
of her apartment nude from the waist down the phone went off the hook for days and I became extremely suspicious
when I learned that neighbors had heard terrible screams and shrills coming from
her apartment that some had described as a sounds of torture on the night of May 7th two of crystals
neighbors had been awakened by a strange intermittent wailing - 30 minutes after
4:00 I remember looking at the clock and I heard some moaning since I'm just a funny sounds you know how you are when
you wake up you just don't know what's going on my screaming but even before I even woke him up I laid there thinking
someone's being tortured someone's being hurt something's going on you know I had no past the prior
experience to what the sounds were because they were so blood-curdling eerie that they frightened me very much
all I could think about for some reason with someone taking a cigarette and putting it against her body torturing
her because we had heard like choking and moaning but then when this started that's all we heard Susan was very
adamant about calling the police but out of my fear of what I heard I didn't want
to get involved that was my first reaction I don't think ever be able to live with the fact that
I didn't call if I had maybe she would still be alive a week later crystals body was
discovered and the tailors finally told their story to the police witnesses who saw or heard something he just took my
statement took my name asked me for my driver's license that was it it was just very nonchalant about it I believe most
sincerely as does her family that crystal and a Spencer was murdered in the early morning hours of May 7th 1988
Crystal's family requested to view the body several times the coroner's office continually refused claiming the body
was in no condition to be seen for months Anton Klein was denied access to the police records however in September of
1988 he was able to obtain the autopsy report Anton was shocked by the discrepancies
he found crystal Spencer was barely five foot tall the autopsy report claims as she's an amazing five foot seven crystal
Spencer weighed approximately a hundred and five pounds I last saw her the autopsy claims the body is a
well-nourished 140 pounds I was stunned I said this is not the body of crystal Spencer and where is the real body of
crystal Spencer you don't you don't grow seven inches again fifty to sixty pounds
when you're dead the only thing that comes to my mind is a possible documentary error at the coroner's
office they are overwhelmed with work however we do have the remains identified by fingerprints from two
different agencies as I mentioned before and those really eliminate any possibility of the coroner's autopsying
the wrong remains I was told by one law enforcement official quote unquote bad things happen to bad girls and I said
you mean bad girls died of natural causes and he said you know what I mean and hung up on me on the phone
[Music] two weeks after the discovery of her body crystals family and friends gathered for a private memorial service
fittingly crystal Spencer's ashes were scattered beneath the famous Hollywood sign
I believe the investigation was bungled and I am angered that they are tempting now to suppress the police reports in
this case forever we need to know what happened to her it's important to all of us cared about
her to learn the truth that's all we want is the truth [Music] next police need your help to find the
man suspected in the brutal murder of his ex-wife [Music] Easter Sunday 1990 lonely road 12 miles
outside of Coldwater Michigan Ray Emery Thornton set off on a leisurely Drive in
the country as they did every weekend but in just a matter of minutes the routine Sunday outlet would places
ordinary or abiding couple at the center of a strange anomalous mystery we were driving to south on it's no Perry roads
and all of a sudden a band just honest and passed [Music] jeez must be in a hurry one of the things we
do when we're out driving around is we make names out of license plates Murray came up with the Jesus he's really in a
hurry because the first two letters of his license plate were Jeezy and it was just spontaneous really no thought
behind it several miles down the road the Thorntons came across the man and the van a second time as we approached
an old schoolhouse and I saw a man behind it and he had what appeared to be a bloody sheet as we continued passing
the school I saw the van parked between the building and a big tank there's the van that passed us where it's right
there [Music] minutes later a van pulled up behind them again and rode their bumper for
nearly two miles I'm gonna start our games really paid off because that helped me remember the first two letters
of his license-plate number but we wanted to get more if possible he's got a white school cat line right now like
mine finally a nervous Wraith Orton turned off the highway when he did the van pulled to the side of the road
we decided to turn around and come back and see if we get a license plate number
we felt if we could get the license number then we could turn the police the guy was acting very suspicious and we
just felt that authorities should be notified there he is he's in the back man he
looks like he's - yes he's changing plates he was behind his van with the passenger front door open and I saw that
the passenger door was covered with blood there's blood all over that door or door but they listened your door that
guy has done something the Thorntons fear that something unspeakable had happened they returned
to the schoolyard to search for the sheet well I was beginning to get nervous when
we got back to the schoolhouse we were very careful about where we walked we tried to find what this white thing was
that he had been carrying look look that's probably it [Music] partially stuffed into a small animal it
was a blood-soaked blanket [Music] on an otherwise Pleasant spring afternoon ray and Marie Thornton had
chanced upon evidence of a shocking crime a crime which marked the complete and tragic disintegration of a family
unwittingly the Thorntons were witness to the final chapter of a bitter heated conflict between a husband and his wife
which ended in murder through outward appearances Dennis and Marilyn Depew of Coldwater Michigan had a comfortable
middle-class life both had gratifying careers Dennis was a state of Michigan property assessor Marilyn a high school
counselor together they were raising three healthy children but beneath the surface
smoldering tensions threatened to erupt at any moment after the children were born
Dennis grew sullen and withdrawn he began to isolate himself from the family an accused Marilyn of turning the
children against him you know it's not that they they didn't it was just you know they didn't really talk she would
just say in general that she was unhappy and when when the lawyer or someone else
would ask her why she wanted to get a divorce she would say because the marriage is broken up and because she
was there was no longer a marriage there I want to make sure that you want to go
through with it this time if you do you gotta sign it on this page and sign it on the last page in 1989 after 18 years
of marriage Marilyn de PUE finally gave up thank you now do you have any questions at all
Marilyn what about Jim seeing the children down we'll have to wait till the hearing a week from Friday Marilyn
just wanted it to be more of her own person raising her family as she saw fit I believe that she felt at that time
that Dennis was in effect trying to domineer her that has run her life and not allow her to make decision that she
wanted to make he was agreeable to his wife having custody as far as property was concerned
he was very willing to allow his wife to have almost most of the property that she wanted how many times I had to fight
with him to you know get a fair share of their property but he was very willing to give her whatever she wanted I don't
I don't want this thing to happen I don't want this divorce it's not it's not um it's not something I want or want
to deal with and despite Dennis's attempts to keep the marriage intact the divorce became final in December of 1989
Denis was granted by weekly visitation rights but the children were often reluctant to spend time with him
[Music] Denis was also granted access to the guest house which uses an office and as
an excuse to maintain control over his family Marilyn had to change all the locks on the doors even after she
changed the locks on the doors she would tell me that there were some times when
she would come home in unlock the house and go in and there was Denis sitting on
the couch she didn't know how he got in because she had different keys made and new locks and everything and she seemed
whoa frightened about that he sort of out of the blue just indicated to me one day that he was contemplating suicide
and in murder Easter Sunday April 15 1990 denna survived to pick up two of the children for a visit his younger
daughter Julie had already refused to go with him come on Scott kitchen things put the
game down let's go get your jacket no I can't look I came here now you're going now the depew's eldest daughter Jennifer
ran to a neighbor's house to call the Sheriff's Office [Music] she wasn't walking completely he was
like throwing her up we're going to the hostel you kids stay here and when they're walking by on you no I just like
you know said ma'am ma'am you know and she she didn't even look at me she was just like kind of like in a daze
The Pianist never arrived at the hospital sheriff's deputy and the Michigan State Police immediately began
a search and missing couple that same afternoon ray and Marie Thornton found a bloodied blanket in the
school yard the area was quickly cordoned off the authorities began to assume the worst
Maryland deep uner is probably dead deputies discovered several fresh tire tracks and a large pool of blood
the tracks are later matched to Dennis's van the blood was Maryland's [Music] the stretcher all right the next day a
highway worker discovered Maryland depew's body just off a deserted road midway between the schoolhouse and her
home she had been shot once in the back of the head we had a feeling that he had really done
something terrible it was so brutal and premeditated that makes you so angry if she had been killed in an automobile
accident you could get over that but not this just days after the murder Dennis sent a
series of wild rambling letters to friends and relatives in which he tried to justify Maryland's death to co-worker
Jan Markowski Dennis wrote Marilyn had many many opportunities to treat me fairly during this divorce and she chose
to string it out trick me lied to me and when you lose your wife children and home there's not much left I was too old
to start over altogether Dennis at a total of 17 letters postmarked in Virginia Iowa and
Oklahoma it seemed as if Dennis was trying to say that those of us who were friends of Marilyn were the ones who
caused her death when in effect it was Dennis who pulled the trigger none of the rest of us did that the only closure
that we could get out of it would be to have Dennis Scott that's the only thing I can't think of anything else that
would help me I think of it day and night and I will the rest of my life and nothing even Dennis being caught will
not take this terrible feeling away and loss an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth a lie for a lie a life for a life
three months after the murder Dennis tip you sent copies of this 13 page letter to a number of friends and
relatives it reads like a treatise a chilling 5,000 word rationalization which takes literally from the Bible
throughout I realize that vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord but sometimes the Lord is too busy doing
other things Denis de PUE is six feet tall and weighs 200 pounds he has dark brown hair and
dark deep-set eyes he was last seen driving a 1984 cream-colored Chevrolet van with maroon stripes which may now
bear Illinois license plates at around 8:30 on the night of our broadcast a woman who asked that we call her Mary
arrived at her home outside Dallas Texas Mary's boyfriend Hank queen was already
home his van was parked in the driveway which was out of the ordinary because he
usually kept it inside the garage he told me that his mother was very ill and then he needed to make an emergency some
sandwiches that I could take on her it's a really long drive I was sure that something else must really be going on
but I didn't know what he was getting clothes out of the closet clothes out of some drawers gathering up some of his
personal items at the same time giving me instructions on preparing some food for him to take on the long trip me hug
he just gave me a little peck of a kiss and I gave him a big hug and said goodbye to him I've realized
that something was troubling him and I knew I'd never see him again later that night Barry was shocked to
learn that her boyfriend had Queen was really Dennis de PUE and that he had just been featured on unsolved mysteries
for nearly a year Dennis depew's whereabouts remained a mystery until the night of our broadcast
looking back on it now I'm sure he was watching yeah I think that he was deliberately keeping my attention
distracted in the kitchen so that I wouldn't save the segment and so that he could leave
a friend of Mary's called our telecenter and provided authorities with a Texas license plate number of Dennis two pews
van four hours later depew's life came to a violent end just across the louisiana mississippi state border when
louisiana state troopers spotted two puce van they attempted to pull him over he led police on a 15 mile high speed
chase and broke through to police barricades I told the David agency of the van refused to stop to shoot a tire
off over the front time and they missed the front tire but to get both back ones
he traveled about half a mile and just went going to felony stop after firing two shots through his windshield at
deputies and another through an open window the pew turned his gun on himself and took his own life
it was it was a funny feeling to to realize that the night before that you've been watching this man that he
was wanted for murder someplace and then you walk up to the van and you recognize
him as being the person that was on unsolved mysteries it it's a funny feeling but I think he intended to die
whether he had to do it by his own hands or where he can get us to kill him otherwise he would have stopped and we
forgot him out of the van alive and there Mindi shot fired while living as a fugitive Dennis de PUE said a chilling
letter to several friends tried to justify his ex-wife's death he wrote an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth alive
for a lie a life for a life at the time Dennis de PUE had no idea just how prophetic those words would be
for every mystery there is something somewhere holds a final piece of the puzzle join me next time for another
edition of unsolved mysteries [Music] [Applause] [Music] you [Music]
