The Killer Beside Me (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 3 - The Evil Inside - full transcript

SHE HAD NO REASON TO BELIEVE
THAT HER LIFE WAS IN DANGER.

SHE'D TELL ME IF THERE WAS
ANYTHING THAT WAS REALLY WRONG.

WE FOUND 1,000 HOURS OF FOOTAGE.

IT REVEALED THEM IN THE MOST
INTIMATE OF SITUATIONS.

FIRST THING I SAID TO THEM WAS,
"HE KILLED HER."

AND THEN HE WAS LIKE,
"HOW DID YOU KNOW?"

EMPLOYEES TRIED TO
COMFORT EACH OTHER

FOLLOWING THE MURDER
OF A FELLOW WORKER,

31-YEAR-OLD KERRI HARRIS.

SPLOTCHES OF THE BLACK POWDER
USED TO LIFT FINGERPRINTS

COULD BE SEEN ON THE DOORWAY
INSIDE HER OFFICE.



KERRI WAS EXCITED ABOUT THIS
NEW JOB AT THE PROCESSING PLANT

BECAUSE THIS JOB WAS
THE PERFECT JOB FOR HER...

HEY, EXCUSE ME, MISS.

...ONE, BECAUSE
IT FIT HER CAREER FIELD, TWO,

BECAUSE SHE WAS
CLOSER TO HER FAMILY,

AND THREE, SHE WAS CLOSER TO ME.

CAN YOU SIGN IN?

SURE.

SHE WAS THE PROFESSIONAL,
BUT I ALWAYS PICKED WITH HER

BECAUSE I SAID SHE WAS, LIKE,
THIS FOOD SCIENTIST-CHEMIST,

LIKE, THE MAD SCIENTIST.

I GOT THAT.

SHE SAID THAT IT WAS
JUST A NORMAL FIRST DAY

MEETING NEW PEOPLE, FINDING OUT
WHERE SHE WAS GOING TO SIT,



THOSE KIND OF THINGS.

HI, KERRI?

HI, WARREN.

- HI.
- GOOD TO SEE YOU.

THIS IS THE E-MAIL
THAT THE PROCESSING PLANT

SENT OUT TO ALL THE
EMPLOYEES WELCOMING KERRI

AS THEIR NEWEST EMPLOYEE.

IT, LIKE, HAD HER PICTURE
ON THE FRONT OF IT,

AND IT ALSO HAD, LIKE,
A LITTLE MINIBIO ABOUT HER

THAT WAS, LIKE, IN THERE
FOR DESCRIBING WHAT SHE DID

AND WHERE SHE WAS GOING TO WORK
AT TO THE WHOLE COMPANY.

SHE DIDN'T REALLY CARE FOR THEM

EVEN SENDING IT OUT
THE WAY THEY DID.

SHE DIDN'T NEED TO BE
IN THE FOREFRONT.

SHE WAS MORE OF A PERSON
THAT WOULD PREFERRED

TO HAVE WENT A DIFFERENT WAY,

LIKE, GONE AROUND
AND MET EVERYONE FIRST

AND THEN KIND OF LIKE,

"HERE, FOR THE PEOPLE THAT
DON'T KNOW, THIS IS KERRI."

KERRI WAS NOT THE TYPE TO MIX
BUSINESS WITH PERSONAL LIFE

OR BUSINESS WITH PLEASURE.

SHE WAS NOT THAT TYPE OF PERSON.

SHE KEPT HER PERSONAL LIFE
TO HERSELF.

SHE KEPT FAMILY TO HERSELF.

SHE KEPT HER FRIENDS TO HERSELF.

IT WAS REALLY NO CROSSING.

WHEN IT CAME TO STARTING NEW
CHALLENGES FOR KERRI, IT WAS...

THE NERVOUSNESS,
I THINK, WAS THERE,

BUT HER CONFIDENCE
OVERSHONE HER NERVOUSNESS,

ESPECIALLY TO OTHERS
BECAUSE THEY WOULD SEE NOTHING

BUT THIS SUPER STRONG WOMAN,
AND I WOULD SEE BOTH SIDES.

YEAH?
COME IN.

KERRI?
YEAH?

HI, I'M KERRI,
AND YOU ARE?

CRAIG.

I SAW THE BOSS' E-MAIL,

AND I JUST WANTED TO
COME BY, INTRODUCE MYSELF.

THERE WAS THIS GUY TO WELCOME
HER TO HER NEW JOB.

CAN I DO SOMETHING
FOR YOU, CRAIG?

WELL, YEAH.

I MADE YOU THIS.

WOW.

YOU REALLY SHOULDN'T HAVE
GONE TO ALL THAT EFFORT.

WHEN CRAIG BAKED
THE CAKE FOR KERRI,

I THOUGHT IT WAS A NICE GESTURE,
A WELCOMING GESTURE.

THANK YOU.

CRAIG WAS A REALLY NICE GUY.

HE WAS EASY TO TALK TO.

HE SEEMED TO BE CARING
OF OTHER PEOPLE,

BUT KERRI DID NOT
WANT TO EAT THE CAKE

BECAUSE SHE WAS VERY PARTICULAR
ABOUT THE FOOD

SHE ATE FROM PEOPLE'S HOMES

BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T KNOW
HOW THEY KEPT THEIR KITCHEN,

IF IT WAS CLEAN OR NOT.

PLEASE, HELP YOURSELVES.

WHEN KERRI FIRST
STARTED AT THE JOB,

SHE WOULD COME BACK AND FIND
THINGS MOVED IN HER OFFICE.

I WOULDN'T QUITE CALL IT AN OCD,

BUT I WOULD SAY
SHE WAS METICULOUS.

WHEN IT CAME TO PROFESSIONAL
THINGS, EVERYTHING WAS IN PLACE.

THERE WAS NOT A SINGLE THING
THAT COULD EVER BE OUT OF PLACE.

SHE COULDN'T FIGURE OUT
WHO WAS DIRECTLY DOING IT,

BUT SHE DIDN'T LEAVE
ANYTHING IMPORTANT AT WORK.

SORRY, WARREN.

YOU SCARED ME.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

YEAH.
YEAH, ALL GOOD.

THANKS, WARREN.

MYSELF AND KERRI,
WE TALKED ON THE PHONE

ALMOST EVERY DAY ON THERE

FOR WHETHER IT WAS HER
CALLING ME AT HER LUNCHTIME

THAT SHE HAD A BREAK
FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES

BECAUSE SHE WOULD SAY, WELL...
I SAID, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"

SHE WAS LIKE, "I'M GOING OUT
TO MY CAR TO HAVE MY LUNCH,"

OR, "I'M GOING DOWN
TO THE LOCAL PLACE,"

OR SHE'D GO TO A PARK.

ONE EVENING, SHE HAD
SOME FRIENDS

SHE WAS GOING TO BE GOING OUT
WITH AND HAVING A GOOD TIME,

AND SHE WAS TALKING
ABOUT THAT AT WORK.

I WAS ON THE PHONE WITH HER,
AND SHE WAS GOING HOME.

HEY, JASON.

YOU WORKING LATE AGAIN?

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

YOU WORK TOO HARD.

NO.

YOU KNOW YOU DO.

NO.

IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT
CONVERSATION, SHE'S DRIVING,

AND IT KIND OF, LIKE...

SHE JUST KIND OF PAUSES.

UM...

OKAY.

I'M LIKE, "HEY.
YOU STILL THERE?"

SHE'S LIKE, "YEAH.
I'M STILL HERE," AND I'M LIKE,

"WELL, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"

SHE'S LIKE, "I THINK A CAR
IS FOLLOWING ME."

SHE FELT LIKE SHE WAS BEING
FOLLOWED SEVERAL TIMES

WHEN SHE WAS LEAVING WORK.

I SAID, YOU KNOW,
"IS IT SOMEBODY YOU KNOW?"

SHE WAS LIKE, "I CAN'T
REALLY MAKE IT OUT,

BUT IT'S GETTING CLOSE,
AND EVERY PLACE

I'M TURNING IT'S TURNING,"

AND I'M LIKE,
"WELL, A LOT OF TIMES,

PEOPLE HAVE WHERE THEY'RE JUST
NOT REALLY FOLLOWING YOU,

BUT THEY'VE GOT TO WEAVE THEIR
WAY OUT THE SAME WAY YOU DO."

LOOK, I KEEP TURNING.

I'VE TAKEN A COUPLE
OF SIDE ROADS.

THEY'RE STILL THERE.

I SAID, "DRIVE YOURSELF AROUND.

BE SURE YOU STAY
ON A WELL-LIT ROAD,

AND TAKE YOURSELF TO
THE NEAREST POLICE STATION,

AND PULL IN THERE AND SEE
IF THEY FOLLOW YOU."

AND THEN, RIGHT AS SHE WAS
GETTING NEAR THE POLICE STATION,

THE CAR THAT WAS
FOLLOWING HER TURNED OFF.

IS EVERYTHING OKAY, MA'AM?

YEAH, YEAH.

SORRY, OFFICER.

IT'S A STRESSFUL DAY.

OKAY.
DRIVE SAFE NOW,

KERRI WAS ONE OF THE MOST
UNIQUE PEOPLE I'VE EVER MET.

I MEAN, THE GIRL STARTED
READING AT THE AGE OF 3.

AND THEN, BY THE TIME
SHE REACHED THE AGE OF 5,

YOU KNOW, SHE WAS HAVING
THESE 300-PAGE BOOKS

THAT SHE WAS GETTING 10
AT A TIME FROM THE LOCAL LIBRARY

AND TAKING THEM HOME
AND READING THEM

IN A FEW DAYS
AND TAKING THEM BACK.

IT WAS AMAZING.

I MET KERRI IN COLLEGE,

AND WE WERE STAYING
IN THE SAME DORM TOGETHER.

WE JUST CLICKED.

IT WAS EFFORTLESS.

WE FOUND A LOT OF THINGS
IN COMMON, TRAVEL,

BASICALLY TALK ABOUT

HOW WE WANTED TO TRAVEL
AFTER WE GRADUATED.

THIS PICTURE MEANS A LOT TO ME.

THIS IS ONE OF THE VACATIONS
THAT KERRI AND I

TOOK TO THE BEACH.

IT WAS ONE OF OUR
FAVORITE PLACES.

WE LOVED THE WATER.

WE LOVED THE SUN.

SHE WAS MY TRAVEL PARTNER.

SHE WAS THE ONE
THAT I DID EVERYTHING WITH.

AS A QUALITY-CONTROL MANAGER,
IT WAS KERRI'S JOB

AT THE PROCESSING PLANT
WHERE THEY MADE A FOOD ADDITIVE

TO TEST ALL ASPECTS OF IT

AND ENSURE IT WAS
SHIPPED OUT PROPERLY.

SHE TOUCHED EVERY ASPECT
OF THE OPERATION.

KERRI WAS A VERY
METICULOUS PERSON

THAT STRIVED FOR PERFECTION
IN EVERYTHING THAT SHE DID

AND EVERYTHING THAT HAD
HER STAMP APPROVAL TO IT.

IF IT DIDN'T GO OUT WITH HER
LEVEL OF QUALITY TO IT,

THEN IT WOULDN'T LEAVE.

WHEN KERRI FIRST STARTED
HAVING CAR PROBLEMS, SHE SAID,

"JAY, I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING
ON WITH MY CAR, YOU KNOW.

I'M STARTING TO HAVE
ALL THESE WEIRD

LITTLE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS."

IT WAS VERY ODD.

SHE HAD ONE INSTANCE
WHERE THE CAR ITSELF

WOULDN'T START AT WORK.

CRAIG CAME OUT AND THEN
LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE HOOD

AND HELPED HER WITH IT,
AND IT STARTED UP.

YOU KNOW, SHE HAD
ALREADY HAD AAA,

SO SHE HAD SOMEONE COME OUT,

BUT SHE WAS THANKFUL
BECAUSE HE KNEW

EXACTLY WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT.

SORRY.

WHAT'S ALL THIS?

CRAIG BOUGHT KERRI SOME FLOWERS,

AND HE SEEMED TO BE
VERY INTERESTED IN HER.

WELL, I JUST WANTED TO SEE
IF YOU'D LIKE TO GO OUT

FOR A DRINK SOMETIME.

SHE WASN'T INTERESTED IN CRAIG

BUT DID NOT LIKE TO HURT
PEOPLE'S FEELINGS.

THAT'S SWEET,
AND THE FLOWERS ARE NICE,

BUT I DON'T DATE COWORKERS.

WHEN CRAIG GAVE HER FLOWERS
AND SHE TOLD THEM THAT THAT WAS,

YOU KNOW, NOT A GESTURE
THAT SHE WAS ACCEPTING OF,

HE WAS NOT HAPPY.

AW, COME ON.

LOOK, I'VE GOT A MEETING
TO GET TO IN ABOUT 5 MINUTES.

ALL RIGHT?

KERRI SAID, "HE POUTED AWAY
LIKE A LITTLE CHILD."

I TOLD HER IT WAS ODD.

THANKS.

FINE.

IT WAS ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT,

IF IT WASN'T IN
A PROFESSIONAL SETTING,

SHE DIDN'T WANT TO DO
ANYTHING WITH HIM.

"THANK YOU VERY MUCH
FOR THE GESTURE,

BUT IT'S NOTHING
THAT I'M LOOKING FOR."

CRAIG WANTED KERRI TO BE MORE
INTERESTED IN HIM THAN SHE WAS,

AND SO HE WOULD PURSUE HER.

YOU KNOW, HE WOULD TRY TO
TAKE HER OUT ON DATES.

HE WANTED A RELATIONSHIP.

SHE DID NOT RETURN
THOSE FEELINGS,

AND SHE WISHED
HE WOULD STOP PURSUING HER.

THERE WAS A PARTICULAR INCIDENT
WHERE MY MOTHER HAD WENT OUT

AND ACTUALLY BOUGHT HER
A SET OF DIAMOND EARRINGS.

IT WAS FOR HER BIRTHDAY.

NICE EARRINGS.

YEAH, YOU KNOW, GIFT.

AND THEY WERE CUTE,
A LITTLE NICE SET,

YOU KNOW, A NICE
MOTHER-TO-DAUGHTER GIFT.

HEY.

SORRY.

I JUST WANTED TO SAY,
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY."

CRAIG WENT OUT AND BOUGHT A
BIGGER, BETTER SET OF EARRINGS.

I'M NOT SURE IF THEY
WERE DIAMOND OR NOT,

BUT KERRI FLAT-OUT REFUSED.

I'M SORRY.

NO, I CAN'T ACCEPT THEM.

HE JUST DID WANT
TO STEP BACK FROM HER.

IN ESSENCE, SHE WAS
JUST SAYING THAT,

"I DON'T WANT TO DATE YOU."

I'LL LEAVE THEM IN MY OFFICE
FOR WHEN YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND.

I CAME BACK TO KERRI.

IT SOUNDED LIKE, YOU KNOW,
SHE NEEDED ME TO COME DOWN THERE

AND HAVE A TALK WITH SOMEBODY,
AND SHE WAS LIKE, "NO, JAY.

DON'T DO IT. THERE'S NO NEED.
I'VE GOT THIS HANDLED."

KERRI WENT TO HR TO INFORM THEM
OF CRAIG'S INFATUATION.

UM, HI.

IT WAS STARTING
TO GET OUT OF HAND.

SHE FELT LIKE THAT WOULD SOLVE
HER PROBLEMS WITH CRAIG.

SHE FELT THAT THEY COULD
GIVE HER GUIDANCE

ON HOW TO HANDLE
THE SITUATION.

THEY GAVE CRAIG DIRECTION
AS WELL AS A WRITE-UP

IN HIS PERSONNEL FILE,

AND THE DIRECTION
THAT THEY GAVE HIM WAS,

UNLESS IT WAS
WITH DIRECTLY OFFICIAL BUSINESS,

THAT THERE WAS NO INTERACTION

THAT HE'D REALLY NEED
TO HAVE WITH KERRI.

SHE KNEW THEY HAD TALKED TO HIM
BECAUSE THEY TOLD HER

THAT HE WAS GOING TO GO,
YOU KNOW, LICK HIS WOUNDS

AND MOVE OFF ON HIS OWN WAY.

KERRI WAS HOPEFUL THAT
THE PROBLEM HAD BEEN RESOLVED.

HEY.

I'M SORRY I'M LATE.

THANKS.

SO, THANKS FOR THIS.

I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW MUCH
I NEEDED A DRINK.

SHE CONFIDED IN HER
THAT SHE WAS AWARE

THAT CRAIG WAS
INFATUATED WITH HER,

AND SHE HAD FOUND OUT SOME
HORRIFIC INFORMATION ABOUT CRAIG

THAT SHE HAD
TO SHARE WITH KERRI.

WHAT?
WHAT IS IT?

I THINK THE COWORKER
WAS SCARED FOR KERRI

BECAUSE SHE KNEW
THIS WAS TRUE.

KERRI CALLED ME THAT EVENING
AND TOLD ME THAT HER COWORKER

HAD JUST TOLD HER THAT CRAIG
HAD SPENT TIME IN PRISON

FOR MANSLAUGHTER OF A GIRL.

I WAS SHOCKED.

IT WAS ONE OF THOSE THINGS,
LIKE, I NEEDED TO VERIFY,

SO I DID SOME RESEARCH
AND LOOKED UP HIS NAME,

LOOKED UP NEW JERSEY,

LOOKED UP THE GIRL'S NAME
THAT SHE GAVE

AND FOUND OUT IT WAS TRUE.

HE HAD COMMITTED
THIS HORRENDOUS CRIME.

CRAIG WAS ABLE TO KEEP
HIS CRIMINAL PAST A SECRET

FROM THOSE AROUND HIM.

HE HAD COMPLETED HIS SENTENCE.

HE WAS NO LONGER UNDER
THE DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS.

HE WAS NO LONGER IN JEOPARDY.

HIS COWORKERS DESCRIBED HIM
AS A NICE GUY.

IT WAS STARTING TO FEEL LIKE
THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING.

YOU HAD A WHOLE BUNCH
OF MIXED EMOTIONS

BECAUSE NOW YOU KNOW YOUR FRIEND
WHO YOU'RE VERY CLOSE TO

IS NOW WORKING WITH A KILLER.

I WANTED HER TO FIND
ANOTHER JOB.

I WANTED HER TO TRANSFER.

I DIDN'T CARE WHERE SHE WENT.

SO WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT KERRI
GOT HER MASTER'S DEGREE,

I WAS OVER THE MOON.

IT JUST WAS
A SOLIDIFICATION FOR HER

AS AN ACHIEVEMENT
IN HER INDUSTRY.

THIS IS KERRI
ON HER GRADUATION DAY.

I KNOW SHE WAS FULL OF PRIDE,
AND I WAS FULL OF PRIDE FOR HER

THAT THIS IS SOMETHING SHE HAD
FINALLY WORKED SO HARD FOR,

STRUGGLED HERSELF THROUGH

AND MADE HAPPEN.

HEY!

HI.

SO HOW WAS YOUR WEEKEND?
DO ANYTHING FUN?

NO, I MEAN,
NOTHING EXCITING.

GROWING UP WITH ME AND KERRI,
THERE WAS ALWAYS A DIRECT

SORT OF COMPETITION

THAT WE HAD ON CERTAIN THINGS,

THAT BANTER BACK AND FORTH
BETWEEN US ON THAT

FOR BEING WHICH ONE WAS GOING
TO BE THE FIRST ONE

TO MAKE SOME MAJOR
ACHIEVEMENT IN OUR LIFE

AND THAT NEW MILESTONE,
AND HONESTLY,

I HAVE TO SAY
MY LITTLE SISTER BEAT ME.

KERRI, CAN I BORROW YOU
FOR A SECOND?

YEAH, SURE.

I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.

WHEN KERRI WAS FINISHING OFF
HER MASTER'S DEGREE.

BEING THE PERSON THAT SHE WAS,
SHE DIDN'T WANT ANYONE TO KNOW.

YOU KNOW, SHE WANTED TO BE
ABLE TO ANNOUNCE

ON HER OWN TIME,
HER OWN SPACE.

WHAT'S ALL THIS?

CONGRATULATIONS.

HER BOSS SAYS, "HEY,
EVERYBODY, YOU KNOW,

I'VE GOT AN
ANNOUNCEMENT TO MAKE.

LET'S ALL CONGRATULATE KERRI.

SHE JUST FINISHED OFF
HER MASTER'S DEGREE."

SHE SAID SHE COULD NOT BELIEVE
THAT HE DID THAT TO HER.

THANK YOU.

HEY, KERRI.

CONGRATULATIONS.

WHEN CRAIG FOUND OUT ABOUT KERRI
GETTING HER MASTER'S DEGREE,

HE WENT OUT IN TRUE FASHION AND
WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND ABSURD,

AND HE BOUGHT HER A GIFT.

FOR KERRI'S GRADUATION GIFT,

CRAIG PURCHASED
A DIGITAL ORGANIZER FOR HER.

IT WAS AN EXPENSIVE GIFT.

WOW,
YOU REALLY SHOULDN'T HAVE.

KERRI WAS WORRIED
ABOUT UPSETTING CRAIG

AFTER HEARING
ABOUT HIS CRIMINAL PAST.

SHE DIDN'T WANT TO
UPSET HIM IN ANY WAY.

SHE DID WANT TO GIVE IT
BACK TO HIM,

BUT SHE ALSO WANTED TO DO IT IN
A WAY THAT DIDN'T TICK HIM OFF.

LOOK, I CAN'T ACCEPT THIS.

IT'S TOO MUCH.

YOU CAN AND YOU WILL.

I'M NOT TAKING IT
BACK THIS TIME.

EXCUSE ME.
I'VE GOT A MEETING.

THANK YOU AGAIN.

EXCUSE ME.

WHEN KERRI TOLD ME
ABOUT THIS, I WAS LIVID.

I SAID, "THAT IS NOT A GIFT

FOR SOMEBODY TO GIVE YOU
FROM WORK AT ALL."

WELL, NOW I SAYS,
"WHO IS THIS GUY?"

I SAID, "NO, THERE'S
SOMETHING WRONG WITH HIM,"

AND I SAID, "YOU NEED
TO WATCH YOURSELF."

I SAID, "YOU"...

SHE SAID, "JAY, I AM.
I'M WATCHING OUT FOR MYSELF."

I SAID, "NO. NO."

I SAID, "YOU'VE GOT
TO UNDERSTAND THIS.

YOU DON'T JUST HAVE TO WATCH
YOURSELF FROM THE FRONT.

YOU'VE GOT TO WATCH
YOURSELF FROM THE SIDES

AND FROM THE BACK, YOU KNOW,
WITH SOMEBODY LIKE THIS

BECAUSE THAT'S WAY
TOO MUCH OF A GIFT."

I TRULY BELIEVE THAT SHE WAS
HEAVILY CONCERNED AND SCARED,

BUT I PUT IT TO THE SIDE.

I SAID, "NO, SHE'D TELL ME
IF THERE WAS ANYTHING

THAT WAS REALLY WRONG,"

AND THAT WAS THAT, THINKING THAT
WE WERE GOING TO TALK AGAIN.

KERRI, ARE YOU OKAY?

THAT CONVERSATION NEVER CAME.

KERRI, ARE YOU OKAY?

YEAH, I'M FINE.

IT'S JUST I'M JUST
A LITTLE OVERWHELMED.

A FEMALE COWORKER OF KERRI'S
HAD WENT TO THE RESTROOM.

WELL, WHILE IN THE RESTROOM, SHE
NOTICED SOMETHING ON A SHELF,

AND IT CAUGHT HER CURIOSITY.

WHAT IS...

IT WAS A FLASHING RED LIGHT.

IT WAS COMING FROM A MAKEUP BAG.

IS THAT A CAMERA?

THE CAMERA WAS IN A COMPACT BAG,

SANITARY NAPKINS ON TOP OF IT

SO THAT THERE WAS A DIRECT
IMAGE OF THE LADIES

AS THEY WENT
TO THE RESTROOM.

IT REVEALED THEM IN THE MOST
INTIMATE OF SITUATIONS.

KERRI WAS HORRIFIED.

SHE FELT VIOLATED, AND IT WAS
AN INVASION OF HER PRIVACY.

SHE SAID, "WHAT KIND OF
PSYCHOTIC, CREEPY PERSON

WOULD ACTUALLY PUT A CAMERA
IN THE LADIES' RESTROOM?"

YOU KNOW, RESTROOMS FOR WOMEN
ARE BONDING PLACES.

WE GO TOGETHER.

YOU KNOW, WE PUT OUR
MAKEUP ON IN THERE.

WE GET CHANGED IN RESTROOMS.

WE DO EVERYTHING
IN THE RESTROOM,

AND TO FIND OUT THAT
ONE OF MY COWORKERS

HAD PLACED A CAMERA IN THERE
WHERE I'M AT MY MOST VULNERABLE,

THE LEVEL OF INVASION...

I ACTUALLY -- I REALLY --
I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE THAT.

SHE DIDN'T TELL ME.

IF I WAS TOLD THAT SOMEBODY
HAD BEEN SETTING UP A CAMERA

IN THE WOMEN'S RESTROOM
AND WATCHING HER,

I'D HAVE BEEN ON THE ROAD,
DRIVING DOWN THERE,

TRYING TO YANK HER UP
AND MOVE HER HOME.

KERRI AND THE ASSOCIATE
THAT FOUND THE CAMERA

WENT TO HR HIGHER-UP,

AND AT THE TIME,
NO ONE WAS PRESENT,

SO KERRI SECURED THE CAMERA,
AND THE NEXT MORNING,

SHE AND THE COWORKER
REPORTED TO HR.

ON THAT FRIDAY MORNING,
KERRI WAS WALKING OVER

TO HR'S OFFICE

WITH THE CAMERA.

CRAIG ACTUALLY WAS
WALKING PAST HER,

GOING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION,

HEADING TOWARD HER BUILDING.

SHE AND THE COWORKER
REPORTED TO HR.

HR CONTACTED
THE POLICE DEPARTMENT,

AND THE POLICE WERE
IMMEDIATELY ON THE SCENE.

THEY WERE HORRIFIED
ONCE THEY REALIZED

THAT THIS CAMERA
HAD BEEN THERE.

NO ONE KNEW HOW LONG.

AFTER KERRI AND HER COWORKER
TURNED OVER THE CAMERA TO HR,

KERRI SIMPLY WENT
BACK TO WORK.

SHE HAD NO REASON TO BELIEVE,

BASED UPON THE EVIDENCE
THAT WE INVESTIGATED,

THAT WE DISCOVERED,
THAT HER LIFE WAS IN DANGER,

SO SHE WENT TO DO THE JOB
THAT THEY PAID HER TO DO.

THE ABSOLUTELY UNFORTUNATE THING
FOR KERRI IS THAT, AT THE TIME,

SHE HAD NO CLUE WHO HAD PUT
THE CAMERA IN THE STALL.

CRAIG HAD EVERY OPPORTUNITY
TO LEAVE THAT DAY.

WHAT CAN I DO
FOR YOU, CRAIG?

HEY, BOSS.

I'M NOT FEELING SO WELL,

AND I THINK I'M GOING
TO HEAD OFF HOME.

OKAY.
NO PROBLEM.

YOU KNOW, HE'D SEEN
THE POLICE COME AND LEAVE.

"THEY'RE GOING TO FIND OUT
ABOUT THE CAMERA.

THEY'RE GOING TO
DUST IT FOR PRINTS.

THEY'RE GOING TO
FIND OUT IT WAS ME."

WE FOUND HE HAD COMPILED
A COMPACT DISC,

THOUSANDS OF HOURS OF FOOTAGE,

WHICH BASICALLY
COVERED EVERY DAY

THAT THAT CAMERA
WAS IN THE RESTROOM.

CRAIG HAD TAKEN THE
IDENTIFICATION PICTURES

OF HIS COWORKERS,

PLACED THEM ON THE COVER
OF COMPACT DISC CASES

AND GIVEN EACH OF HIS COWORKERS
THEIR OWN INDIVIDUAL FILES

WHERE HE DOWNLOADED
ALL OF THE PICTURES

FROM THE CAMERA.

EMPLOYEES TRIED TO COMFORT
EACH OTHER

FOLLOWING THE MURDER
OF A FELLOW WORKER.

31-YEAR-OLD KERRI HARRIS
WAS INSIDE HER OFFICE

WHEN ANOTHER EMPLOYEE,
CRAIG ARMSTEAD,

ALLEGEDLY ATTACKED HER
WITH A KNIFE.

AS YOU CAN IMAGINE,
GETTING CALLED TO A WORKPLACE

TO INVESTIGATE
A WORKPLACE MURDER

IS NOT AN EVERYDAY OCCURRENCE,

AND THE POLICE WERE
IMMEDIATELY ON THE SCENE.

THE POLICE IMMEDIATELY PUT OUT
WHAT WE CALL A BOLO,

A BE-ON-THE-LOOKOUT,
FOR CRAIG ARMSTEAD,

AND THEY WERE ABLE TO
APPREHEND HIM IN SHORT ORDER.

I JUST FELT THAT THERE
WAS SOMETHING WRONG.

LIKE, I COULDN'T BREATHE.

I LOST...

I LOST MYSELF.

I ACTUALLY GOT UP OUT OF
THE MEETING THAT I WAS IN.

JUST ALL OF A SUDDEN,

EVERYBODY WAS LOOKING AT ME
LIKE THERE WAS SOMETHING...

AND I HAD TO WALK OUTSIDE,

AND IT WAS RAINING OUTSIDE,
AND I WALKED OUTSIDE,

AND RIGHT AS I GOT OUTSIDE,
THE RAIN WAS COMING DOWN.

IT JUST KIND OF STOPPED.

AT THAT POINT, I COLLAPSED.

AT THAT MOMENT,
I TOLD THEM MY NAME,

AND HE TOLD ME AT THAT MOMENT,
HE SAYS, "I'M SORRY, MR. HARRIS,

TO INFORM YOU THAT
YOUR SISTER, KERRI,

WAS MURDERED TODAY."

I SAID, "DO YOU HAVE HIM?"

HE SAID, "YES," YOU KNOW,
"WE CAUGHT HIM."

WE BELIEVE THAT CRAIG
SAW KERRI WALKING TO HR,

AND WHEN HE SAW THEM
WALKING TO HR, HE PANICKED.

HE KNEW THAT HIS GIG WAS UP,

AND IT IS THEN THAT HE BEGAN
TO PLOT THE MURDER OF KERRI.

CRAIG MURDERED KERRI
WITH A WEAPON

THAT HE FOUND AT THE JOB,
A BUTCHER KNIFE.

THE EVIDENCE INDICATES
THAT IT IS LIKELY

THAT SHE NEVER SAW IT COMING,

AND HE LEFT HER IN HER OFFICE.

HE LEFT HER ALONE.

HER COWORKERS WERE ONLY
FEET AWAY, JUST A FEW FEET AWAY.

THEY WERE HAVING
A LUNCH MEETING.

CRAIG DID NOT CARE.

THEY HEARD HER SCREAMS.

THEY HEARD THE COMMOTION.

AFTER THEY HEARD HER SCREAMS,

THEY CAME TO SEE
WHAT WAS GOING ON.

THEY SAW CRAIG FLEEING.

COWORKERS
WENT INTO KERRI'S OFFICE,

AND SHE WAS LYING ON THE FLOOR,

KNIFE STUCK THROUGH HER NECK,
NO LONGER BREATHING.

CRAIG HAD KILLED HER.

KERRI'S FAMILY CALLED ME, AND
THE FIRST THING I SAID TO THEM

WAS, "HE KILLED HER,"

AND THEY WERE LIKE, "WHAT DO YOU
MEAN HE KILLED HER?"

AND I WAS LIKE, "HE KILLED HER.
CRAIG KILLED HER,"

AND THEY'RE JUST LIKE,
"HOW DID YOU KNOW?"

IN 1992, HE PLEADED GUILTY
BY REASON OF INSANITY

TO THE MURDER OF HIS
EX-GIRLFRIEND IN NEW JERSEY.

HE SERVED 5 YEARS OF A 10-YEAR
MANSLAUGHTER SENTENCE.

HE WAS A SICK INDIVIDUAL.

SHE WAS ANOTHER PERSON THAT WAS
ON THE TOP OF HER WORLD

AND MOVING FORWARD
WITH HER LIFE,

READY TO SET THE WORLD ON FIRE,
JUST LIKE MY SISTER,

AND HE TOOK HER AWAY, TOO.

ARMSTEAD'S RECORD
ALSO SHOWS A FELONY

PEEPING TOM CONVICTION
IN CLAYTON COUNTY IN 1999.

I WAS THERE WHEN THE TRIAL
HAPPENED FOR CRAIG ARMSTEAD.

I WAS THERE EVERY DAY.

CRAIG HAS NEVER SHOWN AN OUNCE
OF REMORSE, REGRET, OR SORROW

THAT HE DID WHAT HE'S DONE.

CRAIG'S DEFENSE WAS
ONE OF LEGAL INSANITY.

LUCKILY FOR KERRI AND HER
FAMILY, THAT DID NOT WORK,

AND THE JURORS SAW THROUGH THAT,
CONVICTING HIM ON ALL ACCOUNTS.

ONCE CRAIG REALIZED THAT
THE CAMERA HAD BEEN FOUND,

HE COULD NOT BEAR
THE THOUGHT OF KERRI

KNOWING THAT IT WAS HIM.

HE WAS ATTRACTED TO KERRI.

HE WANTED TO DATE KERRI.

HE WANTED TO BE
KERRI'S BOYFRIEND.

SHE WAS NOT ATTRACTED TO HIM,
SO ONCE THE DISCOVERY WAS MADE,

CRAIG DECIDED HE HAD TO
KILL HER INSTEAD OF HER

KNOWING THAT IT WAS HE THAT PUT
THE CAMERA IN THE STALL.

I FEEL THAT ANY COMPANY
THAT WANTS TO HAVE SOMEBODY

THAT IS LIKE THAT WORK FOR THEM,

THEY SHOULD INFORM THE PEOPLE

AND GIVE THEM THE CHOICE OF WHAT
THEY WANT TO WORK NEXT TO

AND WHAT THEY WANT TO BE WITH.

YOU KNOW, YOU DON'T JUST TAKE
AND HAVE SOMEONE HANGING OUT

IN THIS WORLD
NEXT TO YOU THAT IS A THREAT.

SHE HAD SO MUCH TO OFFER.

SHE WAS...

WE HAD SO MANY PLANS
TO TRAVEL, TO DO THINGS,

AND HE TOOK HER AWAY FROM US.

THERE'S JUST AN EMPTINESS,

A VOID THAT CAN'T BE
FILLED BY ANYONE ELSE.

MY SISTER WAS
A BEAUTIFUL PERSON.

WHEN IT CAME TO KNOWING
SOMEONE AND WANTING TO SAY

THAT I HAD SOMEBODY IN MY LIFE

THAT WAS A TRUE FRIEND,

A TRUE PERSON, A GOOD PERSON,
THAT WAS MY SISTER, KERRI.

SHE WAS A LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS
FOR SO MANY PEOPLE.

THE ONE THING THAT I'M THANKFUL
FOR IS THAT MY SISTER, KERRI,

AND I, WE ENDED
EVERY CONVERSATION

THAT WE EVER HAD
WITH THE WORDS, "I LOVE YOU,"

AND IF THERE WAS ONE OTHER THING
THAT I COULD TELL KERRI

RIGHT NOW

AND SAY TO HER
IS THAT, "I MISS YOU.

I WISH I COULD HAVE
SAVED YOU FROM THIS.

I HOPE THAT YOUR SOUL
IS AT PEACE

AND THAT,

WHEREVER YOU ARE,

THAT YOU KNOW, AS ALWAYS,

THAT I LOVE YOU."
