Good morning.

I'm meteorologist Stu Haines
in the Kyww Weather Center.

- Our five-day forecast...
- People filled the Modesto city council meeting,

many carrying signs...

You can feel the
excitement all over the city...

Welcome to Modesto Airport.

Please do not leave baggage unattended

for the safety of yourself
and all airport passengers.



Mr. Skokie. Chuck Palmer, Modesto P.D.

It's the last room over here.

Mr. Skokie,

someone inside the room is
going to pull the blind back.

You're going to see a
table with a body on it.

I need you to tell me if the
body you see is your son.

Let me know when you're ready.

Mr. Skokie.

Mm.

Go ahead.

That's Matt. That's him.

Why don't we, uh, go sit down somewhere...

Can I, um...

Is there
a bathroom I could use?

We took a call from one
of your son's neighbors.

Officers responded to your son's home,

where they found two victims.

Gwen? Is Gwen dead?

Gwen's at the hospital.
She's in critical condition.

I have to be honest, Mr. Skokie.
It doesn't look very hopeful.

We're still investigating what happened,

but we haven't been able to locate a wallet,

credit cards, I.D. for
your son at the scene.

It's possible the motivation was robbery,

but we're not ruling anything out.

Mr. Skokie, I can't go into specifics,

but your son's wife...

There are indications she
was sexually assaulted.

Oh, God.

Now, we
have a few leads that we're following.

- Oh, God.
- We have a very strong description

of a vehicle of interest
that was in the vicinity

during the shooting.

The driver we're looking for
is a young hispanic male.

Is Gwen all right?

Is she gonna... Is she gonna be all right?

She's in critical condition, Mr. Skokie.

I'd like to... I think I
would like to see her...

- I honestly don't know right now.
- And go where she is.

We want to catch the person who did this,

and if there's anything
you can do to help us...

Did your son ever mention anyone
that he had any problems with,

anyone who might...

No. Matt, he... I-I don't... h-he's not...

When was the last time that
you talked to him, Mr. Skokie?

Sunday.

W-we talked every...

That's when it happened, isn't it?

Have you called his mother yet?

No, sir. We had your number.

We contacted you for a positive I.D.

Would you like to call his mother?

Would you like to call her, Mr. Skokie?

- This it for you?
- That's it.

Yeah, these are sick, man.
Trying to get me a pair.

Yeah.

It's gonna be $235.35.

All right, Mr. Skokie. You enjoy those.

All right.

Hi, Papi.

Me and Carlos were doing homework.

You done? 'Cause if you're done, he can go.

Hey, um, see you
at school, all right?

Why do you have to be so rude?

Jenny, you know you're not supposed to have

anyone over during the week.

- We were doing homework.
- Homework?

- Yes.
- Really? No books?

- We finished.
- Oh, you finished.

No, you didn't finish, mija,
so don't tell me that.

All right. Now everything's a mess.

- You got boys coming over.
- It's not a mess! I was doing my nails!

Jenny, if you can't follow the rules,

then I guess you don't get to go

to your little party over the weekend

or anything else you had planned.

Jenny.

Jenny.

Papi.

Mijo.

How was your day?

Good.

So, the, uh... the starter came in.

Come by the garage
tomorrow. We'll put it in.

Okay.

So, you know this boy from school?

Mm, not really.

Well, does he get in trouble a lot?

I don't know him.

What were they doing?

Homework. And then you came in.

That's it.

I'm gonna watch TV.

I couldn't hardly recognize him.

The detective said that the... t-the gun

must have been right in
the front of his face.

Well, what are the police doing?

Well, they... they... they
have a description of a car.

A... when was Matt killed, Sunday?

It's Tuesday. All they have
is a description of a car?

And, uh, they said that,
uh, they think it might be

an hispanic kid.

Some illegal?

I... just "hispanic."

Why did they call you?

And, uh... and they said that they...

They think that maybe G-Gwen was raped.

I don't understand why they called you.

I'm his father.

No, I-I don't understand
why they called you first.

You know, they just, uh...

T-they found my number, and they called me.

What about Mark?

Yeah, I wanted to, uh,
you know, talk to you first.

Oh. You haven't called
Mark yet? Oh, my God, Russ.

No, no, I thought we
should call him together.

- I'll call him.
- Well, he's my son, too.

I'll call him.

We need to be a family now.

For both our boys right now,
we need to be a family.

I need to talk to the police.

I need to find out why
they're not doing anything.

It's all right.

I know there's a hit in my bag.

All right, I checked in my pockets,
all right? I just... can you just...

There's nothing but lint in there. Can you
just look... Pass me my bag, and I'll look.

There's nothing here. I've
been feeding you that crap.

I know that there's a hit in my bag.

- Okay.
- Did you smoke it?!

Why would you say something like that?

Why did you let those bitches jump you?

- What?
- Now we've got nothing.

Why did you let them jump you?

Why did you let them jump me?

Huh?

Why did you let them jump me?

That wasn't me.

I was never gonna let
that happen to me again.

I was never gonna let
that happen to me again.

I was never gonna let
someone make me their bitch.

- Okay.
- Do you realize...

- All right.
- Do you...

Shh. I understand. I hear you, okay?

- Do you?
- Yes.

I'm sorry, okay? I should have been there.

I'm gonna do better.

Help out more.

Get us paid.

I didn't
think I could do it.

I didn't think I could
take seeing her like that.

But I just prayed, "God..."

Hi, sweetheart.

"...give me strength to
walk into that room."

It's mommy and daddy.

"That's your baby girl..."

We need to discuss your daughter
having been sexually assaulted.

"...And she needs you."

Her hand was so warm.

There's still life in her.

She's gonna survive. She's
gonna get through this.

I know there's still life in her.

There is a reporter who would
like to do a story on us.

I think it's very important
for people to know

who our children were and
what happened to them.

And we have to keep what happened present.

That's just... that's... that's a reality.

If we don't keep talking about it,

in a week o-or two, people
will have moved on.

That's not something we're comfortable with.

All you have to do is talk about her.

Eve...

Just say what you said
about holding her hand.

I see no reason

to talk to people about our
daughter being violated.

None.

I'm trying to help.

Roll me up.

Turn it off. Turn it off.

All right, go ahead and close it up.

Tomorrow, I need you to take this out

and blow out the soot, okay?

Okay.

You should let Jenny go to
the party this weekend.

If she wants to go to parties,
she needs to follow the rules.

Yeah, but you always freak
out about everything.

I freak out?

Mijo, I walked through the door,

and she's sitting on the sofa with some boy.

And don't tell me they're doing homework.

You know, I know you don't believe this...

I know you don't... but I
used to be a teenager, too.

I know how you think.

You know, mijo, one day...

One day, you're gonna have
a little girl of your own.

And trust me... You're
gonna be the same way.

No, 'cause when I have my kids,

I'm not gonna freak out
about everything all the time.

- Miguel.
- Hey. What's up, man?

Hey, tell your boss the
next time he sends me a car

not to send it with chunts.

I don't want gang tattoos around here.

You kidding me, man? Those aren't gang tats.

I don't want that around my business.

You want to know what?

You know that?

Just tell him.

Come on, man. Let's get
this out of here, man.

Like a bitch.

What am I supposed to do with this, huh?

Hello?

Hey, it's me.

I'm a bitch.

I'll make opportunities for you.

- Opportunities?
- Yeah, bracero.

Why else you got to sneak across the border

if you ain't gonna be somebody?

Be somebody.

Be like you.

Living in a rat hole.

Rolling some other people's weed...

...And buying some stolen crap

'cause you too lazy to steal yourself.

See this one? My weed.

This is my joint.

And if you don't watch your mouth, baboso,

I'll own your ass, too.

¿Entiendes?

Yeah.

Yeah.

$50 for the headphones.

You want cash or weed?

Money.

Step.

Don't forget your phone, perra.

I-I haven't seen the body yet.

I...I don't want to see it.

I'm... I'm not gonna remember him like that.

Remember him how you have to.

I'm not...

I'm not gonna be one of those...

"Sit and look through scrapbooks crying."

Now is when Matt needs me,

and I have always been there for you two

when you needed me.

How's dad taking it?

And the police are doing nothing.

What do you mean, nothing?

Oh, Russ said they're...

looking for some Mexican.

I just, uh... I really need you here.

I need you to get here, Mark.

I'll fly back as soon as I can.

I need somebody else here.

Okay, mom. I love you.

Oh, honey, I love you, too.

This your car?

It's my dad... Well, his garage...

Can I get your license and registration?

I don't have registration,

but my dad told me to take this for...

- Is this your current address?
- Yes, sir.

Copy that description.

All right, stay in your car, please.

- Tony Gutiérrez?
- Yes, sir?

I have some other officers that
would like to speak with you.

Can I get you to come down and talk to them?

Go where?

They would like you to come down
to the P.D. and speak with them.

- What for?
- They just want to ask you a few questions.

You can leave your car here.

That officer will take care of it.

Can I get you to step out of your car, sir?

Sir?

Tony?

I'm Chuck Palmer with the
Modesto Police Department.

This is John Sanderson.

He works with me.

Tony, I want you to know your
father's already been contacted,

and he's on his way down here.

While we're waiting,

I was hoping we could ask
you a couple questions.

There's a few things we were
hoping you could help us with.

What things?

Is it okay if we ask you a few questions?

Yes, sir.

Okay, good.

So, the car you were driving
when the police pulled you over,

that's in possession of
your father's garage?

Well, me and my dad, we work on it.

It's just a hobby.

But it's not currently
registered for street-legal use?

I mean, I was just supposed
to blow out the soot.

I know I'm not supposed
to be on the road with it.

- Are you and your fa...
- Am I in trouble?

Besides the two of you,

- does anyone else have access to the vehicle?
- No.

Nobody over the last few days?

- No.
- What about Sunday night?

Nobody drove it Sunday.

What did you do Sunday night?

I was at home.

Did you watch football? Was it a good game?

Did you watch it with your family?

It's just my sister and my dad.

That's it.

So, you watched the game with them.

I was in the garage,

so I didn't get to watch the game.

You were at the garage?

Okay, from when to when?

I'm not sure.

About when to when?

Is my dad coming?

I don't care. I don't care.

- Listen.
- I don't care.

Listen.

Whatever I got to do... I'll handle it.

Okay?

I'm not letting you do that.

All right?

It's not real to me yet.

The phone rings. I expect it to be Matt.

It's people giving me condolences,

but I can't take them.

He's not... it doesn't...
feel like he's gone, so I...

I don't know how to take
other people's grief?

Mr. Skokie, when you got
the call from the police,

what was your first reaction?

Well, they weren't even sure it was him.

Uh, so, I had to, uh, fly out.

So I was just... I was hopeful, you know?

The whole... whole trip over,
I was... it was a mistake.

You know, I kept telling
myself that it was, um...

The things I was able to
find out about your son...

It seems like he was a
really good young man.

Yeah. Oh, yeah.

He was in the military. Is that right?

Yeah, he... yes, h-he
enlisted right after 9/11.

He wanted to do his service.

He was in Iraq, and h-he did
what was right for people.

Married a beautiful young girl...

Married his sweetheart.

She was a beauty queen,
right? She was literally...

Y... Gwen, uh, was Miss...
She was the runner-up

for Miss, uh, Modesto six or seven years ago

after Matt's service, right
when they moved out here.

Perfect couple.

He cared.

And he was happy.

Never mind that he did not
have it easy growing up.

- You and your husband are separated?
- We're divorced.

Me and the boys did not have a lot of money.

We didn't have any money.

It was hard for me to provide,
but Matt, his brother...

Um, Matt's brother, Mark,
he's in the military, too.

H-he's serving right now.

They both grew up knowing that
they had to be responsible.

A-and for s-something like
this to happen to Matt...

What are the police telling you?

Nothing. And they're not
doing much of anything.

I know the one person they're looking for

is an illegal... or something.

It just f-figures...

M-my son goes off to
another country to fight,

then he comes home to America,

and he gets killed by
somebody from another country.

I love you.

You don't have to
say things like that.

You know... you didn't have
to tell him we're divorced

or that you didn't have money
when the boys were young.

Say something that wasn't true?

It's not what you say, Barb.

It's how you say things. It's just...

I really don't care.

You say it with happiness.

I am proud that I was able to
take care of my children...

Our children.

That I was able to take care
of them when you couldn't...

- Our children.
- Or when you wouldn't.

I'm trying to get people to
find out who killed our son.

And you sit there, and you...

You worry about you. Stop the car.

- I what? What are you...
- Stop the car. I'm getting out.

I'm gonna get out of the damn
car unless... Stop the car.

Stop it!

- Stop the car.
- Barb.

Don't you walk away from me.
That was 20 years ago.

- I am not that same person.
- I am not here for you.

Listen, I admit I had some problems.

"Problems"?

S-s-say what you did! Say what you did!

Say what you did!

You gambled away everything we had.

Then you went and stole so
you could gamble some more.

Yeah, it was... You were off in Vegas...

- It was... It was an illness, Barb.
- Or Reno...

- It was an illness. It was an addiction...
- Throwing away all our money.

- And I got myself help.
- We had nothing.

- And now I am recovered!
- We had nothing,

raising those boys by
myself in public housing.

Do you have any idea
what that was like? Huh?

A-a white mother
and her two white kids...

Do you know what those people did to us

- day after day?
- Barb. Barb.

- Do you know how those people treated my boys?
- Barb.

- I am here trying to do what I can for Matt!
- Yeah.

And your feelings are hurt
over what I say to a reporter?

- Barb, Barb, come on.
- Stop saying my name!!

Now is easy to be a father, Russ,

when all you have to do is stand
in front of people and be sad.

You think... you think this is easy for me?

Do you have any idea how hard it was for me

to earn back the love and
the trust of our boys...

Our boys! Now get in!

It must have been so hard.

Just stay out of my way!

Or walk if you want.

Honest to God, I don't care.

Got Mr. Gutiérrez.

Mr. Gutiérrez. Chuck Palmer.

Have a seat, please.

Mr. Gutiérrez, we appreciate you coming in.

Now, your son is not under arrest.

Tony agreed to come in and speak with us,

and he agreed to answer some questions

outside of your presence, okay?

Yes. All right.

Now, there are a few more
questions that we have.

Can we get you to help
answer a few questions for us?

- Yes, sir.
- Okay.

Now, your son was stopped driving this car.

Is that car in the possession
of your garage?

I tell him to drive it around
the block when he has to,

but he knows he's not supposed
to be on the street with that.

And do you recall personally
operating that vehicle

- outside of your property this past Sunday?
- Sunday? No.

Would anyone else have
had access to the vehicle?

We have the keys... Nobody else.

Well, Mr. Gutiérrez,

your son told us that he wasn't
at home on Sunday night.

Do you recall if Tony was home with you?

No, he wasn't at home.

Mr. Gutiérrez, do you
know where your son was?

Well, he told me he was working on the car.

Tony, were you working on the car,

or were you out riding around in it?

Tony was telling us that
it's just you at home.

- Is that right?
- Yes.

My wife and I, we recently separated,

so I know how hard it is...

No, no, it's, uh, different. We didn't...

My wife, Roberta, had a heart... thing.

I'm very sorry about that.

Mr. Gutiérrez, we need your
son to tell us what's going on.

If he tells us what happened,
if he tells us the truth,

then that's that.

But if he lies to us, that's
going to be a problem.

- Papi, yo no he hecho nada.
- Unh-unh. Not like that.

If you have something to say, you say it.

Are you lying to them?

- Are you lying?
- No.

- So that wasn't our car?
- I don't know.

- Everything he's saying... That wasn't our car?
- Ino hice nada!

Stop it! Stop lying! Do
you want to go to jail?

- Huh? Do you want to be another cholo in jail?
- I want to go home.

Then tell the truth.

- Tell them what happened.
- I don't know.

- What did you do?
- Nothing! You never let us do nothing!

- I just wanted to make some money for myself!
- You're gonna blame me?

Antonio, was that our car?!

Yes.

We... we always told
him... him and his sister...

We always told them, "stay away from gangs.

Stay away from drugs."

Roberta and I,

we came to this country the
right way... the right way.

And we always told him,
"do things the right way."

Yes, sir.

So, he'll tell you whatever.

Whatever it is, he's gonna tell you.

What?

Hey, it's Carter.

Uh...

You don't remember?

Sean brought us around,
me and my girl Aubry.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where's she at?

She wants to come party some.
Later, though. Not now.

She's not feeling it right now, you know,

- needs a little helping out.
- Nah, man, I got nothing.

Hey, listen. Hey, oh. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I, loo... I-I-, uh...

Look, I-I don't want nothing
for nothing, all right?

All right? I just, uh... I
want to buy a little now.

Then... then Aubry wants to
come back and get serious.

Yeah?

You want something to eat?

I got some Chinese in the kitchen.

Nah, man. Just...
Just want to do business.

- That's all.
- Yeah, yeah. Just hang out a sec.

All right. I'll be right here.

This is all I got right now.

That's cool.

And, uh, Aubry, she's gonna come by later?

Yeah, you know... If she's feeling it.

Cool. All right. It's gonna be $40.

I'm gonna bring Aubry back.

Yeah, she wants to party with you.

Yeah, yeah. It's still $40, man.

Man, why you come over
here wasting my time, man?

Go. Come back when you got
the money, man, all right?

Just...

Damn, man.

Seriously?

Look, man...

Just give it to me, okay?

Man, please, don't. Please, don't do...

Bitch! Give it... to... me!

You... white... bitch! Give it!

- I got something for us.
- What?

I told you I was gonna do it, right?

Hmm?

Mm-hmm.

I want to show you something.
You know what I got?

Open it up.

We could put it up with your collection.

Adam was the first one.

Adam is...?

He's this kid at school.

I was showing him the car one day,

and... he starts going off.

"That's bad. That's sick.
I want to drive that."

And, you know, I told him,
"no, you can't drive it."

But then he pulls out $20.

I mean, $20 just to take it out riding?

I'm cool with that.

I mean, a week later,

a couple weeks later,
h-he comes back around.

Another 20 bucks just to take it out riding.

So it just got to be a thing.

I mean, he had friends and
stuff, so I just started...

You were renting our car?

Let's... talk about Sunday night.

Adam,

he knows this guy that's
looking for a car for the night.

And he's wanting to front me $50.

- I mean, $50.
- W-what do you need that you don't have?

I want to know about this other guy.

He shows up.

He's for real. You know what I'm saying?

He was in a gang?

H-he was scary.

That's all I know.

I mean, he gave me the money.

He took the car.

I thought he was gonna
steal it, but he came back.

I mean, after that,

he started texting me
sometimes... looking for a car.

Every time, it was $50.

You have the phone were texting him from?

I erased them.

I still need the phone.

Could you wait here, please?

The computer should
be back up in a minute.

Uh, you mind, uh, just
waiting for a little bit more?

That's fine.

Hey, um, I'm gonna use my phone real quick.

All right.

That's him!

No, I didn't tell you.

I had to go to my kid's
open house last night.

Get some suction in here,
please. No, no, it was, like,

hours of us sitting on those
little stools, you know?

Hector. You hear me?

Let me tell you where we are.

We've got a witness who can put a car

on the scene of a homicide,

and we've got somebody
who can put you in that car.

We've got credit card and
I.D. belonging to the vic

in your possession.

- I didn't kill nobody.
- Who did?

Why they got to shoot me?

Who did?

We're pulling your jacket.
What are we gonna find?

Robbery, assault?

- I don't do nothing violent.
- Then there's no problem.

What's this car thing about?

I just needed wheels, needed to be mobile.

What for? Do some hustling, deal some drugs?

Look, Hector, it's on somebody else,

or it's on you.

There's this black dude.

Him and his girl are a couple of meth heads.

He's a regular cust. He's
always looking to buy.

He comes to me Sunday. I get him some.

He starts rolling. He
wants more, but he's broke.

And I tell this fool I
can't do nothing for him.

And he starts getting puffed up, hyped up,

talking about how he's owed,

how he needs to settle up a score.

Says there's this white guy that owes him.

He tells me he can get me paid after.

After what?

After... that don't matter to me.

So, I don't know nothing about it.

All I had to do was run him over to Slauson.

Tell me... Why they got to shoot me?!

What address?

I ain't going anywhere with no meth head.

I take him over to the
mini-mall and hang out.

He goes off. Dude comes back.

Cash, cards... I don't know how he got it.

I didn't ask.

You know how to find this guy?

You know why you shot me?

'Cause you don't give a damn about me.

Yeah. I know where he's at.

And why did you
erase those texts, huh?

The one's from your phone?

'Cause you knew you were
doing something wrong.

You knew it.

No, I always erase my texts.

I know you go through my phone.

I'm your father. I want to know
what's going on in your life.

- You treat us like babies.
- You don't tell me what's going on.

You're always checking up on us!

- You never tell me anything.
- Tony.

Could I get you to stand up for me, please?

Why?

Stand up and put your
hands behind your back.

W-w-what's going on?

- You're under arrest for murder.
- I didn't kill nobody.

You have the right to remain silent.

W-what? No. No. No, no. He was driving.

- I didn't kill anybody.
- No, he was driving the car!

- That's all he was doing!
- You never said the words!

- Papi!
- He just took the car!

Anything you say may be used as
evidence against you in a court of law.

- I didn't kill... Papi!
- No, no, no, no. No!

Aah! Help me!

Help me!

Hi, Aubry.

My name is Tanea, and I'm gonna
be taking care of you today.

You look like you're pretty beat up.

Can you tell me how this happened to you?

Okay, I'm gonna feel your
nose and around the front part

of your face next, okay?

Again, any tenderness?

You could talk to us.

- You doing okay?
- You can help us.

Does that hurt at all?

Did he do that to you?

I'm gonna feel your neck now.

You don't have to protect him anymore.

You got to start thinking
about yourself, not him.

Any tenderness through here?

Got some pretty
mean scratches here.

We have four suspects in custody...

Two who facilitated and one
who we believe is the shooter.

We're going to be transferring
them to the jail for booking.

Did he say why h-he did it?

- He won't talk.
- But he did it?

Well, a gun was recovered,

so we're confident we can make the case.

I read where, uh, with the
appeals and everything,

it can take 12 years maybe
to execute somebody.

Is that true?

We have a long way to go
before we even get there.

I want to see him.

I want to see him.

Chuck.

Chris Thompson just brought this in.

You need to go talk to her.

You handle her. I got to
get Skokie to talk to Chris.

Mr. Skokie, this is Chris Thompson,

one of our investigators.

She has a couple of things

she'd like to ask you, if that's okay.

Okay.

Mr. Skokie,

you had a good relationship with your son.

You talked to him regularly.

Did he ever discuss aspects
of his lifestyle with you,

or did you ever feel like he
wasn't forthcoming with you,

that he was hiding something from you?

N-no. No, Matt never hid anything with me.

We talked all the time. We talked about...

We talked about his job, and, uh, you know,

I know he was happy with Gwen.

Did you ever get the sense
that he was involved in drugs?

No. No, no. No, no, no, no.

I... I would know if he were on drugs.

Mr. Skokie...

I mean, you know,
t-that's... That's just not...

I would know.

I would know if my son was having problems.

We don't know that your son

was having personal problems with drugs.

- What was found...
- In our search of his property,

we recovered a large quantity
of crystallized methamphetamine

and cannabis.

The amount and the way it was packaged

and the fact that it was securely hidden

indicates that it was
not all for his own use.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

M-m-Matt... Matt and I were close.

I mean, I w... I would
know something like that.

M-Matt would have... would have told me.

Would your son have told
you if he was a drug dealer?
