NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
- NICE.
- IS THAT GOOD?
- YEAH.
- ALL RIGHT.
SHOOT YOUR ARM ALL THE WAY BACK.
FOLLOW THROUGH.
HAND BACK.
ALL RIGHT.
YEAH.
PUT SOME - - YES.
- GREAT.
- ALL RIGHT.
JERRY GLASER WAS VERY WELL
KNOWN AND VERY LIKED IN THE COMMUNITY.
JERRY WAS AN ELECTRICIAN
AT WARNER ROBINS AIR FORCE BASE.
OKAY.
LET'S CHECK OUT THE BURGERS.
ALL RIGHT.
SOUNDS GOOD.
THEY WERE NOT RICH.
THEY WERE YOUR AVERAGE
MIDDLE-CLASS FAMILY
BUT LIVING WELL.
JUST AN ALL-AROUND GOOD FAMILY
FROM WHAT YOU COULD SEE.
HEY, TAYLOR,
COULD YOU HELP YOUR SISTER?
YEAH.
THANK YOU.
YOU REMEMBER I LIKE MINE
A LITTLE PINK, RIGHT?
EIGHTEEN YEARS OF MARRIAGE,
AND YOU STILL DON'T TRUST ME.
THANK YOU, MR. GLASER.
YOU'RE WELCOME,
MRS. GLASER.
JERRY AND DOROTHY
HAD A GOOD, LOVING RELATIONSHIP.
THEY HAD TWO CHILDREN - -
A 15-YEAR-OLD BOY
AND A 13-YEAR-OLD GIRL.
AND THEY WERE WHAT APPEARED
TO BE A VERY CLOSE FAMILY.
DELICIOUS.
DIG IN, GANG.
THEY WOULD HAVE BARBECUES.
THEY WENT TO SPORTING EVENTS.
THIS FAMILY
DID A LOT OF THINGS TOGETHER
IN A VERY,
WARM AND LOVING WAY.
THIS LOOKS DELICIOUS.
THERE YOU GO.
THE METABOLISM
OF A TEENAGER.
GOD, I MISS THOSE DAYS.
ME, TOO.
SERIOUSLY?
THAT'S GROSS.
WELL, I THINK THIS COULD BE
NORTHSIDE'S YEAR.
I THINK SO.
YEAH.
THAT NEW, QUARTERBACK,
WHAT'S HIS NAME?
- CLAY PHILLIPS.
- YEAH.
THAT KID'S GOT ONE HELL
OF AN ARM ON HIM.
WELL, IF THEY MAKE IT TO STATE,
WE'RE GOING.
DEFINITELY.
WELL, WHAT DO YOU KNOW?
IT LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE MIGHT BE
COMING AROUND AFTER ALL.
I LIKE FOOTBALL.
SINCE WHEN?
SINCE JAKE FANNING
JOINED THE TEAM.
JAKE FANNING?
I THOUGHT HE PLAYED BASEBALL.
HE'S DOING BOTH THIS YEAR - -
AS HIS NUMBER-ONE FAN HERE
WOULD JUST LOVE TO TELL YOU.
SHUT UP, DAVID.
I'M NOT EVEN INTO HIM ANYMORE.
THAT WAS LIKE TWO WEEKS AGO.
WELL,
WHEN THE TIME DOES COME
AND BOYS
START COMING AROUND,
THEY BETTER BEWARE...
'CAUSE I'LL BE WATCHING!
LORD, HELP US.
KEEPING HIS FAMILY SAFE
HAS ALWAYS BEEN 41-YEAR-OLD
JERRY GLASER'S FIRST PRIORITY.
AND, HERE, IN THE TIGHT-KNIT
MILITARY COMMUNITY
OF WARNER ROBINS,
THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN EASY TO DO.
BUT IN THE FALL OF 1985,
THAT SENSE OF SECURITY
STARTS TO CRUMBLE.
YOU HAVEN'T SEEN
"THE GOONIES" YET?
MY GOD, IT'S SO GOOD.
YEAH, MY MOM
CAN DRIVE US TO THE MOVIES,
THEN I'LL JUST ASK MY DAD.
YEAH, I'LL ASK HIM TONIGHT
AND I'LL LET YOU KNOW TOMORROW
FOR SURE.
OKAY.
BYE.
PERFECT.
IF THIS IS ONE
OF DAVID'S STUPID FRIENDS...
MY GOD.
MY GOD.
MY GOD. MY GOD.
MY GOD.
THEIR 13-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER,
JENNIFER, SAW SOMEONE
THAT SHE DID NOT KNOW.
SHE GOT VERY FRIGHTENED
AND CALLED HER FATHER,
WHO WAS STILL AT WORK.
- Hello?
- DAD! DAD!
COME HOME, PLEASE!
PLEASE!
JERRY IMMEDIATELY
CALLS THE WARNER ROBINS POLICE.
BUT, BY THE TIME
HE AND THE OFFICERS ARRIVE,
THE INTRUDER IS GONE.
STILL, POLICE PROMISED TO DO
ALL THEY CAN TO TRACK
DOWN THE PEEPING TOM.
OKAY.
THANK YOU, OFFICERS.
GOOD NIGHT.
BELIEVE ME, SWEETIE.
WHOEVER THIS CREEP IS,
I WON'T LET HIM HURT YOU.
HIS EYES.
THE WAY HE WAS LOOKING AT ME.
I KNOW, I KNOW.
I'M SORRY THIS HAPPENED.
BUT, TRUST ME, THE POLICE
ARE HANDLING IT.
OKAY.
THEY'LL GET HIM.
JERRY WAS QUITE UPSET
BY THIS.
THIS IS - - THIS REALLY RATTLED
HIM, AS IT WOULD ANY FATHER.
HE WAS QUITE CONCERNED
ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON
IN HIS NEIGHBORHOOD.
WHAT A NIGHT.
POOR JENNIFER.
YEAH.
I'M READY FOR SOME SLEEP.
YOU KNOW, I WAS THINKING, MAYBE
WE SHOULD GET THE LOCKS CHANGED.
JERRY, YOU KNOW THOSE THINGS
MAKE ME NERVOUS.
NO ONE'S HURTING MY FAMILY.
A MONTH GOES BY WITHOUT
ANY LEADS IN THE PEEPING TOM CASE.
BUT WITH THE AUTUMN SEMESTER
IN FULL SWING,
JERRY AND HIS FAMILY
HAVE PLENTY OF DISTRACTIONS.
RAD! GO, EAGLES!
WHOO!
WOW,
IT IS REALLY COMING DOWN.
EVERY YEAR, IN OCTOBER,
THEY HAVE THE WARNER
ROBINS-NORTHSIDE FOOTBALL GAME.
AND I GUARANTEE YOU,
THREE-QUARTERS OF THE CITY OF
WARNER ROBINS
WAS AT THAT BALLGAME.
GOD, DO YOU THINK THEY'RE GOING
TO PLAY TONIGHT IN THIS WEATHER?
YEAH.
THEY'RE GONNA PLAY
AND THEY'RE GONNA WIN.
YEAH, THEY'RE GONNA
WIN STATE THIS YEAR.
GUARANTEE IT.
ESPECIALLY
WITH JAKE AS QUARTERBACK.
MY GOD.
I LEFT ENOUGH JUST ROOM
FOR DESSERT.
BE MY GUEST.
COME ON.
LET ME JUST GRAB YOU SOMETHING.
NO. I THINK I'M GOING
TO CALL A TIME-OUT.
ALL RIGHT.
WHO WANTS TO GO THE BOOSTER CLUB
BAKE SALE WITH ME?
THIS GUY.
ONLY IF THEY HAVE
THOSE LEMON BARS.
- THAT'S RIGHT.
- YES.
NO, THANK YOU.
I'M GONNA TO STAY HERE
WITH DOROTHY, WHERE IT'S DRY.
OKAY, COME ON.
LET'S GO, GANG.
HAVE FUN, GUYS.
AS THE GLASERS'
TAILGATE STARTS TO WIND DOWN,
JERRY AND DOROTHY
ARE COMPLETELY UNAWARE THAT,
BACK AT THEIR HOUSE ACROSS TOWN,
THEY'VE GOT COMPANY.
I'LL GET THE COOLER,
DAD.
OKAY, SON.
GREAT.
IT'S GAME TIME,
AND THE RAIN IS CLEARING OUT.
BUT BEFORE THE GLASER'S EVEN
GET TO THE STADIUM...
HEY, HON, YOU OKAY?
I'M NOT FEELING WELL.
GOSH.
WELL, DO YOU STILL THINK
YOU CAN MAKE THE GAME?
I'M NOT SO SURE.
- LET'S DO THIS.
- ALL RIGHT.
Y'ALL READY?
I THINK WE MIGHT HAVE
A PROBLEM.
KIDS, I MIGHT HAVE
TO TAKE YOUR MOM HOME.
SHE'S NOT FEELING VERY WELL.
DOES THAT MEAN
WE ALL HAVE TO LEAVE?
BUT IT'S HOMECOMING.
YEAH.
WE CAN TAKE 'EM HOME.
IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL.
- YEAH, LET 'EM STAY.
- FINE.
BUT YOU GUYS
STICK WITH YOUR AUNT AND UNCLE.
- OKAY?
- WE WILL.
HEY, MOM, FEEL BETTER.
THANKS.
HAVE FUN.
I LOVE YOU.
ALL RIGHT.
SEE YA.
I'LL CALL YOU.
ENJOY THE GAME.
GO, EAGLES.
- SORRY I RUINED YOUR EVENING.
- DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
WE'LL LISTEN TO THE GAME
ON THE RADIO.
OKAY.
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING
IS THAT YOU'RE OKAY.
I THINK I'M JUST GOING
TO LAY DOWN ON THE COUCH.
OKAY,
I'LL GO TO THE BEDROOM,
GRAB YOU A BLANKET.
THANK YOU.
IT'S HOMECOMING,
A HUGE NIGHT FOR FOOTBALL
IN WARNER ROBINS, GEORGIA.
GOD, DO YOU THINK THEY'RE EVEN
GONNA PLAY TONIGHT IN THIS WEATHER?
YEAH. THEY'RE GONNA PLAY,
AND THEY'RE GONNA WIN.
BUT WHEN JERRY GLASER'S WIFE,
DOROTHY, SUDDENLY FALLS ILL,
THE COUPLE IS FORCED
TO END THE NIGHT EARLY.
Y'ALL READY?
I THINK
WE MIGHT HAVE A PROBLEM.
BACK HOME,
AS DOROTHY LIES DOWN TO REST,
JERRY WALKS UP TO HIS BEDROOM,
WHERE HE'S HIT BY
THE BIGGEST SHOCK OF HIS LIFE.
GUNSHOT CREASED HIS HEAD.
NO!
HE WAS THINKING, "MY GOD,
THIS IS IT,"
BECAUSE WHEN YOU GOT
A GUN POINTED RIGHT STRAIGHT
AT YOUR HEAD,
IT'S THE END OF THE LINE.
THE SHOOTER PANICS
AND RUNS OUT OF THE BEDROOM.
AT THAT POINT, JERRY THEN GOES
WHERE HE THINKS HE'S GOT
A. 38 CALIBER PISTOL.
HE LOOKS FOR IT, AND IT'S GONE.
DOROTHY?
- JERRY!
- DOROTHY!
JERRY, JERRY, THERE WAS A MAN!
HE WAS IN BLACK.
- ARE YOU OKAY?
- HE WENT OUT THE DOOR.
- ARE - - ARE YOU HURT?
- MY GOD.
MY GOD.
YOU GOT HIT.
JERRY, ARE YOU OKAY?
JERRY, SIT DOWN.
SIT DOWN.
ARE YOU OKAY?
YOU'RE BLEEDING.
MY GOD.
MY GOD.
HERE.
I'M GONNA CALL FOR AN AMBULANCE.
OKAY?
JUST SIT HERE.
SHH, SHH.
HOLD ON.
I'M JUST GONNA CALL.
AS JERRY HEADS TO THE HOSPITAL,
WARNER ROBINS POLICE
ARRIVE AT HIS HOUSE.
WITH THE SHOOTER STILL AT LARGE,
THEY WORK QUICKLY
TO PROCESS THE SCENE.
WHEN I WALKED IN,
I NOTICED SOME RED DROPS
ON THE BEDROOM FLOOR AND ALSO
THE SHELF IN THE BEDROOM
WHERE THE GUN WAS KEPT.
POLICE COLLECT
WHAT LITTLE EVIDENCE
THEY CAN FIND AND FOLLOW UP
WITH JERRY AND HIS WIFE
WHEN THEY RETURN HOME
A FEW HOURS LATER.
JERRY WAS ONLY HIT BY ONE BULLET
THAT JUST GRAZED HIS TEMPLE.
HE WAS HOME THAT NIGHT
WITH A BANDAGE ON HIS HEAD.
OKAY, SO HE WAS WEARING A BLACK,
HOODED JACKET, BLACK GLOVES
AND BLUE JEANS,
RIGHT?
YES.
AND HOW BIG OF A MAN
WOULD YOU SAY HE WAS?
HE DIDN'T SEEM THAT BIG.
YEAH, YEAH.
AVERAGE BUILD.
MAYBE 5'8 ", 5'9".
JERRY HAD NO IDEA WHY SOMEONE
WOULD BE COMING AFTER HIM,
THIS LOVING FATHER
WHO WAS ALWAYS INVOLVED
IN THE COMMUNITY.
THIS HAD TO BE A ROBBERY.
THAT'S THE ONLY THING
THAT IT COULD BE.
BUT IT DIDN'T APPEAR
THAT THE HOUSE
HAD BEEN BROKEN INTO AT ALL.
WE NOTICED THAT THERE WERE
NO SIGNS OF FORCED ENTRY.
DOES ANYONE
BESIDES YOU AND YOUR KIDS
HAVE A KEY TO YOUR HOUSE?
MY SISTER NELL.
BUT HER AND HER HUSBAND, ANDY,
WERE AT THE FOOTBALL GAME
ALL NIGHT.
ANYONE AT ALL THAT YOU THINK
OF THAT COULD BE BEHIND THIS?
- NO. I - - NO.
- N-NO.
WELL, THERE - -
THERE WAS AN INCIDENT
ABOUT A MONTH AGO.
GO ON.
WELL, WELL, THERE WAS A MAN
OUTSIDE MY DAUGHTER'S WINDOW.
AND, HE - - HE - -
HE WAS SPYING ON HER.
I - - I REPORTED IT TO - -
TO THE POLICE.
EXCUSE ME.
WE'VE CANVASSED
THE ENTIRE HOUSE,
AND THERE'S NO SIGN
OF A GUN.
ARE - - ARE SURE
IT WAS IN THE NIGHTSTAND?
YES. YES.
THE ONLY THING THAT WAS MISSING
FROM THE RESIDENCE
WAS JERRY'S. 38 REVOLVER.
THERE WAS NO OTHER PROPERTY
TAKEN FROM THE RESIDENCE.
DO YOU SUPPOSE ONE OF YOUR KIDS
COULD HAVE TAKEN IT?
NO.
NO. THEY - - THEY
DON'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT IT.
THE KIDS.
WHERE ARE THEY?
THEY'RE AT MY SISTER'S HOUSE.
IT'S PROBABLY BEST
IF WE STAYED THERE TONIGHT, TOO.
OKAY.
THAT'S PROBABLY A GOOD IDEA.
MRS. GLASER, WOULD YOU
LIKE TO COLLECT A FEW THINGS?
OKAY.
THANK YOU.
I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
OKAY.
JERRY IS NOT A STUPID MAN.
HE LOOKS AT THE EVIDENCE,
AND HE THINKS THAT THIS IS NOT
A BURGLARY GONE WRONG.
HE THINKS SOMEBODY IS OUT
TO GET HIM.
AND WITH JERRY'S GUN MISSING,
POLICE HAVE TO WONDER,
"COULD HE HAVE BEEN SHOT
BY HIS OWN WEAPON?"
AFTER THE SHOOTING,
JERRY'S PERSONALITY CHANGED.
HE WAS AFRAID OF ANYONE THAT WAS
AROUND HIM THAT HE DIDN'T KNOW.
HEY, DAD.
DAD.
JERRY, FEARING THAT SOMEONE
MIGHT COME BACK
AND DO HARM TO HIM AGAIN, WENT
AND PURCHASED A. 357 MAGNUM.
HE KEPT IT WITH HIM
AT ALL TIMES.
HE - - HE WAS AFRAID TO - - TO BE
ANYWHERE WITHOUT HIS WEAPON.
HEY.
I,
I THOUGHT YOU COULD USE THIS.
THANKS.
YEAH.
HEY, UM, IS THE GUN
REALLY NECESSARY, DAD?
HIS SON AND HIS DAUGHTER
WERE CONCERNED WITH HIS BEHAVIOR
BECOMING MORE PARANOID
AND CARRYING THE WEAPON
WITH HIM AT ALL TIMES.
THEY WERE SCARED, AS WELL.
JERRY WENT FROM BEING
A VERY OUTGOING, FUN GUY,
WHO WAS INVOLVED IN HIS KIDS'
LIVES, INVOLVED IN HIS FAMILY,
INVOLVED IN THE COMMUNITY,
TO SOMEONE WHO HAD VERY MUCH
WITHDRAWN INTO HIMSELF.
THOUGH HIS FAMILY
TRIES TO REASSURE HIM,
KNOWING HIS SHOOTER
IS STILL ON THE LOOSE,
JERRY JUST CAN'T SHAKE
THE FEELING HE'S BEING HUNTED.
HELLO.
HELLO?
HE HEARD THE HEAVY BREATHING,
AND IT TERRIFIED HIM.
IT JUST
ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED HIM.
HE HAD ALREADY SURVIVED
ONE SHOOTING.
HE DIDN'T THINK HE WAS GOING
TO SURVIVE ANOTHER ONE.
FIVE DAYS AFTER BEING SHOT
POINT-BLANK IN THE BEDROOM
OF HIS GEORGIA HOME...
NO!
...AN ALREADY PARANOID FATHER
OF TWO, JERRY GLASER,
RECEIVES A DISTURBING
PHONE CALL.
HELLO.
HELLO?
IT WAS SOMEONE JUST CALLING,
BREATHING HEAVY,
AND THEN HANGING UP.
AND OF COURSE,
IT REALLY SEALED FOR JERRY
THAT SOMEONE WAS AFTER HIM,
THAT SOMEONE
WAS COMING TO GET HIM.
WHAT TIME DID HE CALL?
IT - - IT WAS, LIKE, 2:00 A. M.
I - - I DON'T REMEMBER.
IT'S JUST - -
SOMEONE'S TRYING TO GET ME.
HERE.
DRINK SOMETHING.
DID HE SAY ANYTHING?
IT WAS JUST HEAVY BREATHING,
LIKE SOMEONE'S TAUNTING US.
WELL, WE'LL GET OUR GUYS
TO SET UP A WIRETAP.
AND IF ANYTHING COMES UP,
WHATEVER IT COULD BE,
JUST LET US KNOW RIGHT AWAY.
OKAY?
THANK YOU.
JUST - - I'M TELLING YOU,
SOMEONE'S TRYING TO GET ME.
TRUST ME, JERRY.
WE'RE DOING EVERYTHING
WE CAN TO GET THE GUY
WHO DID THIS TO YOU.
WE'LL BE IN TOUCH.
HE WAS ALREADY PARANOID.
HE WAS DEPRESSED AND, HE - -
HE JUST DIDN'T TRUST ANYBODY.
THE FAMILY HAS TO WALK
VERY LIGHTLY AROUND JERRY.
AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT
THEY NEVER HAD TO DO BEFORE.
J-JERRY.
JERRY.
JERRY, IT'S ME.
PUT THE GUN DOWN.
JERRY, I-IT'S DOROTHY.
PUT THE GUN DOWN.
JERRY!
JERRY!
IT'S ME.
- GOD.
- IT'S ME.
PUT THE GUN DOWN.
I'M SORRY.
I...
- PUT THE GUN DOWN.
- I'M S--
- IT'S OKAY.
- I'M SORRY.
IT'S OKAY.
IT'S OKAY.
GOD, I THOUGHT
YOU WERE SOMEBODY ELSE.
IT'S OKAY.
IT'S OKAY.
JERRY, IT'S OKAY.
JERRY WAS HAVING BOUTS
OF AMNESIA.
HE WAS, UM, DOING THINGS
WITHOUT REALIZING IT.
IT WAS ALMOST
LIKE HE WAS IN A STATE
WHERE HE COULDN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE
WHO WAS IN FRONT OF HIM.
JERRY IS FALLING APART.
BUT, THEN,
ONE MONTH AFTER THE GLASERS'
PEEPING TOM INCIDENT,
POLICE FINALLY HAVE A SUSPECT.
COULD THIS SAME MAN
BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ATTEMPT
ON JERRY'S LIFE?
THE LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT
IDENTIFIED A SUSPECT
WHO HAD BEEN PEEPING
INTO THE RESIDENCES IN THE AREA.
RONALD STAPP WAS ARRESTED.
THE GLASERS REALLY THOUGHT
THAT THEY HAD GOT THE PERSON
WHO WAS INVOLVED.
HE MATCHED
THE PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
EVEN OF THE SHOOTER, AND THEY
REALLY THOUGHT THAT THE POLICE
HAD FOUND THE RIGHT PERSON.
HEY,
IS THIS GONNA TAKE LONG?
'CAUSE I'VE GOT OTHER STUFF
I'VE GOT TO TAKE CARE OF.
ALL RIGHT, RONALD.
THEN LET'S GET RIGHT TO IT.
WHERE WERE YOU ON THE EVENING
OF OCTOBER 4th?
I THOUGHT Y'ALL
BROUGHT ME IN HERE BECAUSE...
JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION,
RONALD.
LET'S SEE.
I WAS...
I WAS AT MY FRIEND'S HOUSE,
HANGING OUT.
WHAT FRIEND WOULD THAT BE?
GOSH.
UM, LET'S SEE.
WAIT A SECOND.
DID YOU SAY THE 4th?
MY BAD.
I WAS AT HOME,
WATCHING TELEVISION.
IS THERE ANYONE
THAT CAN VOUCH FOR YOU?
I WAS ALONE.
POLICE ARE SUSPICIOUS
OF RONALD'S EVER-CHANGING STORY.
BUT WHEN THEY TELL HIM
HE'S A SUSPECT
IN JERRY GLASER'S SHOOTING,
RONALD
MAKES ONE THING VERY CLEAR.
I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT.
BUT YOU HAVE BEEN TO THE
GLASERS' HOME BEFORE, RIGHT?
TO SPY ON THEIR DAUGHTER?
I WAS JUST LOOKING.
I SWEAR, I HAD NOTHING
TO DO WITH THAT SHOOTING.
WARNER ROBINS POLICE
LOOK INTO BOTH OF RONALD'S ALIBIS
AND SOON DISCOVER THERE IS
SOME TRUTH TO HIS STORIES
AFTER ALL.
WE STARTED TALKING TO WITNESSES
THAT HE FIRST SAID HE WAS WITH,
AND WE GOT THE TRUE STORY.
HE WAS NOT ANYWHERE
NEAR THE GLASER RESIDENCE.
WE HAD NO RECOURSE
BUT TO TURN HIM LOOSE.
BECAUSE YOUR NEIGHBOR WAS ABLE
TO IDENTIFY RONALD STAPP
AS THE PEEPING TOM, AND HE
MATCHES THE DESCRIPTION
OF YOUR DAUGHTER'S PERP,
WE'RE MOVING FORWARD
WITH CHARGES ON THAT FRONT.
BUT WE STILL GOT NOTHING
THAT TIES HIM THE SHOOTING.
BUT WE ARE WATCHING HIM.
WHAT ABOUT THE PHONE CALLS?
WELL,
UNFORTUNATELY,
THEY'RE ALL FROM PAY PHONES, SO
IT DOESN'T LEAVE US WITH MUCH.
SO YOU'RE SAYING
YOU'VE GOT NOTHING?
I DON'T WANT TO
SUGARCOAT IT.
I WISH WE HAD MORE.
WE'RE COMMITTED
TO GETTING THIS GUY.
AND ONCE THEY FOUND OUT
THAT RONALD WAS NOT A SUSPECT
IN THE SHOOTING, IT - -
IT REALLY DISCOURAGED THEM.
JERRY
BECAME EVEN MORE CONCERNED,
MORE PARANOID
THAT SOMEONE WAS STILL OUT THERE
TRYING TO GET HIM.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME,
BUT JERRY NEEDS HIS REST.
COME ON, SWEETIE.
MRS. GLASER?
I THINK IT'S TIME
THAT JERRY SEES SOMEONE.
UM, THIS GUY
IS THE BEST AROUND.
TELL HIM I SENT YOU.
WE NEEDS SOME GOOD NEWS.
HOPEFULLY, I'LL HAVE
SOME FOR YOU VERY SOON.
NELL SAID HE WANTS SOMETHING
SMALL FOR HER BIRTHDAY,
SO I WAS THINKING
WE COULD HOST A DINNER PARTY,
MAYBE AT THAT ITALIAN PLACE
THAT SHE LOVES.
THAT SOUNDS LIKE FUN, RIGHT?
- I HOPE Y'ALL ARE HUNGRY.
- AAH!
THEY'RE TRYING TO GET ME!
SOMEONE HERE'S
TRYING TO GET ME!
THREE WEEKS AFTER JERRY
GLASER SURVIVED A GLANCING SHOT
TO THE HEAD...
...POLICE ARE NO CLOSER TO
FINDING THE PERSON RESPONSIBLE.
I DON'T WANT TO SUGARCOAT IT.
I WISH WE HAD MORE.
AND THOUGH HIS PHYSICAL
INJURIES HAVE STARTED TO HEAL,
EMOTIONALLY, JERRY
IS ON THE BRINK OF COLLAPSE.
- I HOPE Y'ALL ARE HUNGRY.
- AAH!
THEY'RE TRYING TO GET ME!
SOMEONE HERE'S
TRYING TO GET ME!
JERRY IS DEALING
WITH EXHAUSTION.
HE'S DEALING WITH MALNUTRITION.
HE'S JUST FALLING APART.
SO THE POLICE STRONGLY SUGGEST
THAT HE SEEK HELP
WITH A PSYCHIATRIST.
SO, JERRY,
I WOULD LIKE TO GO AHEAD
AND SCHEDULE
A FOLLOW-UP NEXT WEEK.
MAYBE NOW THAT
YOU'VE MET ME,
YOU'LL FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE
COMING TO THE OFFICE.
MAYBE.
JERRY, I'D - -
I'D LIKE YOU TO CONSIDER PUTTING
AWAY THAT GUN FOR A WHILE.
I CAN'T.
AT LEAST
FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS.
GIVEN YOUR MENTAL STATE
AND YOUR LACK OF SLEEP,
I DON'T THINK
IT'S A GOOD IDEA
FOR YOU TO BE
RUNNING AROUND WITH THAT.
BUT WHAT IF HE COMES BACK?
JUST THINK ABOUT IT FOR ME.
OKAY?
AND I'D STRONGLY ADVISE
YOU GET CHECKED OUT
BY A HEAD TRAUMA SPECIALIST.
ONCE HE WENT TO SEE
THE HEAD TRAUMA SPECIALIST,
JERRY
WAS TOLD A MILD CONCUSSION
AS A RESULT OF THE SHOOTING,
COULD BE RELATED TO
WHAT HE WAS EXPERIENCING.
HE WENT HOME
THAT DAY FEELING BETTER.
IT ALSO MADE DOROTHY
FEEL BETTER.
IT - - IT WAS LOOKING UP.
THEY - - THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE
ON THE ROAD TO RECOVERY.
IT'S SO GOOD TO HAVE YOU IN BED
WITH ME AGAIN.
IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK.
WE SHOULD TAKE A TRIP.
JUST YOU AND ME.
MAYBE FLORIDA?
YEAH.
THAT SOUNDS NICE.
I THINK
IT'D BE GOOD FOR YOU.
OKAY.
GOOD NIGHT.
I LOVE YOU.
I LOVE YOU.
HONEY, DON'T.
JERRY.
HELLO.
LEAVE ME ALONE!
SAME OLD THING.
BREATHING.
NOTHING SAID.
AND THAT TAKES WHAT LITTLE BIT
OF PROGRESS THAT SEEMED TO BE
OCCURRING
SPIRALING RIGHT BACK DOWN.
SO THIS PHONE CALL,
IT CAME FROM A PAY PHONE TOO?
- YES, MA'AM.
- UNBELIEVABLE!
WHAT ABOUT RONALD STAPP?
HE MAY BE A PERVERT,
BUT WE DON'T THINK
HE'S A KILLER.
THEY HAD LOOKED INTO RONALD.
THEY HAD WATCHED
HIM THROUGH SURVEILLANCE.
THEY HAD TALKED TO PEOPLE.
THEY HAD DONE AN INVESTIGATION
ON THIS GUY,
AND THERE WAS NOTHING
TYING HIM TO THE SHOOTING.
SO THEY ELIMINATED HIM
AS A SUSPECT.
JERRY, I THINK
IT MIGHT BE WISE
FOR YOU TO TURN YOUR GUN
OVER TO ME.
I CAN'T.
I'M JUST CONCERNED THAT YOU
MIGHT HURT YOURSELF OR SOMEONE
YOU CARE ABOUT.
WHOEVER SHOT ME
IS GOING TO COME BACK FOR ME.
AND I'M GONNA TO BE READY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOT ONLY IS JERRY
A DANGER TO HIMSELF,
HE'S A DANGER TO HIS FAMILY.
HE STILL WILL NOT LET
THEM TAKE HIS FIREARMS.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
DETECTIVES
PROMISE TO PURSUE EVERY LEAD,
BUT, PRIVATELY, THEY WONDER
IF THE BIGGEST THREAT
TO JERRY GLASER
IS JERRY GLASER HIMSELF - -
THAT IS, UNTIL THE MORNING
OF OCTOBER 31, 1985,
FOUR WEEKS AFTER THE SHOOTING.
OKAY, STAY PUT.
YEAH, WE'RE ON OUR WAY.
THERE'S BEEN ANOTHER SHOOTING
AT THE GLASER HOUSE.
LET'S GO.
WHAT THE HELL?
JERRY GLASER HAD BEEN SHOT.
AT THIS POINT, DETECTIVES
DON'T KNOW WHETHER HE HAD BEEN
SHOT BY A GUNMAN, SHOT BY - -
IN SELF-DEFENSE,
OR SHOT HIMSELF.
UNFORTUNATELY,
HE DIED BEFORE POLICE
COULD ASK HIM WHAT HAPPENED.
THE POLICE KNEW
THAT BOTH DOROTHY AND JERRY
HAD BEEN
GETTING THESE PHONE CALLS.
THERE HAD BEEN THIS SHOOTING
A MONTH BEFORE.
THEY THOUGHT THAT THERE WAS
SOME KIND OF OUTSIDE GUNMAN.
BUT WHEN POLICE
HEAR FROM JERRY'S WIFE, DOROTHY,
THEY'RE SURPRISED TO FIND
THAT'S NOT AT ALL THE CASE.
THE TRUTH IS MUCH MORE SHOCKING.
I WENT INTO THE BEDROOM 'CAUSE
I THOUGHT HE WAS SLEEPING.
AND I GOT IN THE BED
WITH HIM 'CAUSE
I WANTED TO SEE IF HE WAS AWAKE.
HE WAS AWAKE,
BUT - - BUT HE WASN'T.
IT WAS LIKE HE WASN'T HIMSELF.
AND THEN,
HE POINTED THE GUN AT ME.
AND I WAS SAYING, "JERRY,
IT'S ME.
IT'S ME.
LOOK AT ME."
I TRIED TO GRAB THE GUN
TO GET IT AWAY FROM HIM.
AND IT JUST - -
AND IT WENT OFF.
SO WHEN THE GUN WENT OFF,
WHO WAS HOLDING IT?
I...
WE BOTH WERE.
I THOUGHT HE WAS GONNA SHOOT ME.
AFTER THE SHOOTING,
THERE WAS A CORONER'S INQUEST.
AND AFTER HEARING
EVERYTHING, HOW IT HAPPENED,
THE CORONER RULED IT ACCIDENTAL.
- THANK YOU.
- THANK YOU.
I HOPE THE POOR GUY
IS AT PEACE NOW.
YEAH.
DAVID, I'M SO SORRY.
JENNIFER, I'M SO SORRY.
DOROTHY, MY HEART
GOES OUT TO YOU ALL.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
FOR WHAT'S LEFT
OF THE GLASER FAMILY,
THIS TRAGEDY IS THE CAP ON TWO
MONTHS OF EXCRUCIATING TERROR.
THEY CAN ONLY HOPE
THAT WITH GRIEF,
EVENTUALLY, WILL COME CLOSURE.
AFTER MONTHS
GO BY WITH NO MOVEMENT
IN THE CASE OF JERRY GLASER'S
FIRST SHOOTING,
DETECTIVES ARE FORCED TO MOVE
ON TO MORE PRESSING MATTERS...
UNTIL FIVE YEARS LATER,
WHEN A STARTLING NEW LEAD BREAKS
THE INVESTIGATION WIDE OPEN.
EXCUSE ME, THE RECEPTIONIST
SAID I NEED TO SEE YOU.
FOR WHAT?
I NEED TO REPORT A MURDER
FOR HIRE.
I'M GONNA HAVE TO
CALL YOU BACK.
NO!
FIVE YEARS AFTER THE
ACCIDENTAL DEATH OF JERRY GLASER,
WARNER ROBINS DETECTIVES ARE HIT
WITH A STUNNING DEVELOPMENT.
I NEED TO REPORT A MURDER
FOR HIRE.
I'M GONNA HAVE TO
CALL YOU BACK.
WHAT'VE YOU GOT?
SO MY AUNT COMES TO ME
AND SAYS, "I NEED YOUR HELP."
I SAID, "SURE,
ANYTHING YOU NEED."
YOU KNOW, I'M THINKING
IT'S A FAMILY MATTER,
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
AND THEN, SHE SAYS, "I NEED YOU
TO KILL SOMEBODY FOR ME."
WHO?
HER SISTER'S HUSBAND,
ANDY.
WHY'D SHE WANT YOU
TO KILL HIM?
TO COLLECT THE LIFE INSURANCE
POLICY.
SAID SHE'D GIVE ME
A BIG CUT TOO.
ALL RIGHT,
WHAT'S YOUR AUNT'S NAME?
DOROTHY.
DOROTHY GLASER.
WARNER ROBINS POLICE CERTAINLY
KNOW THE NAME DOROTHY GLASER.
BUT COULD THE GRIEVING WIDOW
WHO ACCIDENTLY SHOT HER HUSBAND
TO DEATH BACK IN 1985
BE THE SAME WOMAN
NOW PLOTTING A MURDER?
THE DETECTIVES HEAR THAT THIS
WOMAN WHO HAD BEEN INVOLVED
IN A SHOOTING
FIVE YEARS EARLIER,
NOW WANTS TO HIRE SOMEONE
TO MURDER HER BROTHER-IN-LAW.
I THINK WE MIGHT HAVE
A PROBLEM.
POLICE KNOW THAT
IF THIS RUMOR IS TRUE,
IT CALLS ALL THE CIRCUMSTANCES
OF JERRY GLASER'S DEATH
INTO QUESTION.
SO THEY SET OUT
TO CONFIRM BOBBY'S STORY
AND TRY TO FIND OUT
WHO THE REAL DOROTHY IS
BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
THANKS.
YOU HEAR?
LOUD AND CLEAR.
OBVIOUSLY, WE HAD TO,
CORROBORATE THE INFORMATION.
BOBBY WAS A COOPERATIVE
WITNESS.
AND WE PLACED A BODY RECORDER
ON HIS PERSON
AND ALSO A MICROPHONE SO THAT WE
COULD HEAR THE CONVERSATIONS.
THEN WE SET UP
A MEETING WITH DOROTHY.
SO, WHAT EXACTLY
IS YOUR PLAN?
MAKE IT LOOK
LIKE A ROBBERY GONE WRONG,
AND NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW. I MEAN,
WHAT IF SOMETHING DOES GO WRONG?
LISTEN.
I GET IT.
YOU'RE NERVOUS.
BUT TRUST ME.
I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
I'VE DONE IT BEFORE.
WITH JERRY.
THAT'S IT.
ON TAPE, DOROTHY GLASER
CONFESSES THAT SHE ACTIVELY
PLANNED THE FIRST ATTEMPT
ON HER HUSBAND'S LIFE.
BUT SHE DOESN'T STOP THERE.
DOROTHY STATED THAT SHE HAD BEEN
TO THE BALLGAME, CAME HOME,
AND THAT SHE HAD HIRED SOMEONE
TO BE IN THE RESIDENCE.
I'LL GO TO THE BEDROOM,
GRAB YOU A BLANKET.
THANK YOU.
AND THEY WERE TO KILL JERRY
WHEN THEY WALKED IN.
SEE, I HIRED SOMEONE TO DO IT,
BUT THE LITTLE SON OF A BITCH
COULDN'T GET THE JOB
DONE RIGHT.
SO I TOOK MATTERS
INTO MY OWN HANDS.
WHAT DID YOU DO?
AFTER THE FIRST SHOOTING,
I HAD AN ENTIRE MONTH TO PREPARE
THE POLICE AND NEIGHBORS
AND FRIENDS THAT HE WAS
GOING CRAZY AND DELIRIOUS
AND THIS IDEA THAT SOMEONE WAS
COMING BACK TO GET HIM.
THE PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAUMA
THAT SHE SUBJECTED HIM TO
FOR A MONTH
BEFORE KILLING HIM,
JUST HEAPING IT ON
AND MAKING HIM SO PARANOID
ABOUT EVERYTHING
THAT WAS HAPPENING...
LEAVE ME ALONE!
...WAS SETTING HIM UP
JUST TO SPIRAL DOWNWARDS IN - -
IN PSYCHOLOGICAL HELL.
IT WAS TOO EASY.
AND AFTER WEAVING A
WEB OF FEAR AROUND HER HUSBAND
FOR NEARLY A MONTH, DOROTHY
FINALLY GOES IN FOR THE KILL,
SHOOTING JERRY IN THE STOMACH
WITH HIS OWN GUN.
SHE SET THE WHOLE THING UP.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO.
SO YOU'RE SAYING THAT JERRY'S
DEATH WASN'T AN ACCIDENT?
DON'T WORRY.
I GOT AWAY WITH IT ONCE.
WE CAN
GET AWAY WITH IT AGAIN.
DOROTHY GLASER,
YOU NEED TO COME WITH US.
LET'S GO.
YOU SET ME UP.
YOU SON OF A BITCH.
HANDS ON THE TABLE.
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT
TO REMAIN SILENT.
- ANYTHING YOU SAY...
- YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE.
...CAN AND WILL BE USED AGAINST
YOU IN A COURT OF LAW.
IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD
AN ATTORNEY,
ONE WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU.
AFTER THEY ARRESTED DOROTHY,
SHE CONFESSED TO THE CONSPIRACY
TO WHAT SHE HAD DONE WITH BOBBY.
UM, SHE DID NOT CONFESS
TO THE MURDER OF JERRY.
SHE CLAIMED THAT SHE WAS JUST
TRYING TO PUT BOBBY AT EASE
AND SHE WAS TRYING TO MAKE
HIM FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE,
THAT IT WAS OKAY TO CARRY OUT
THAT PARTICULAR SCHEME.
BUT DETECTIVES
DON'T BUY HER STORY.
THE POLICE CHARGED HER
IMMEDIATELY
FOR THE CONSPIRACY ON WHAT SHE
WAS TRYING TO HIRE BOBBY FOR.
BUT, ULTIMATELY, THEY ALSO
CHARGED HER FOR THE MURDER
OF JERRY THAT HAD HAPPENED
5 YEARS EARLIER.
UNFORTUNATELY, WE NEVER
FOUND OUT WHO THE ACTUAL SHOOTER
WAS ON THE FIRST INCIDENT.
WHOEVER THE FIRST
SHOOTER WAS, PROSECUTORS
SPECULATE THAT DOROTHY LED HIM
TO JERRY'S WEAPON UPSTAIRS.
AND WHEN JERRY REPLACED
HIS STOLEN GUN JUST WEEKS LATER,
LITTLE DID HE KNOW HE WAS
BUYING HIS OWN MURDER WEAPON.
THE DETECTIVES BELIEVED
THAT DOROTHY HAD KILLED JERRY
FOR $250,000 OF INSURANCE MONEY.
SHE HAD BLOWN THROUGH EVERYTHING
THAT SHE HAD RECEIVED
FROM JERRY'S MURDER,
AND SHE NEEDED MORE.
DOROTHY WANTED BOBBY
TO KILL HER BROTHER-IN-LAW
FOR THE SAME REASON
THAT SHE HAD KILLED JERRY - -
FOR THE INSURANCE MONEY.
SHE WAS JUST A - -
A SCHEMING, CONNIVING WOMAN
WHO KNEW WHAT SHE WANTED
AND WAS NOT AFRAID
TO TAKE ANY STEPS TO GET IT.
IF SHE WASN'T HAPPY,
DIVORCE THE MAN.
GOD PUT THAT MAN ON EARTH
FOR A PURPOSE.
SHE DID NOT HAVE THE RIGHT
TO TAKE IT AWAY FROM HIM.
SO, THEREFORE,
I THINK SHE'S A GREEDY DEVIL.
ON AUGUST 20, 1993,
DOROTHY GLASER IS FOUND
GUILTY OF MALICE MURDER
AND CRIMINAL ATTEMPT
TO COMMIT MURDER.
SHE IS SENTENCED
TO LIFE IN PRISON.
SHE CAME ACROSS
AS A NORMAL PERSON.
SHE WAS A WIFE,
SHE WAS A MOTHER, AND TO BE
HIDING WHAT SHE HAD INSIDE, UM,
WHETHER IT WAS EVIL
OR WHATEVER IT WAS,
IT'S JUST OVERWHELMING.
EIGHTEEN YEARS OF MARRIAGE,
AND YOU STILL DON'T TRUST ME.
- THANK YOU, MR. GLASER.
- YOU'RE WELCOME, MRS. GLASER.
JERRY HAD BEEN
MARRIED TO DOROTHY FOR 18 YEARS.
LIKE MOST,
MARRIAGE RELATIONSHIPS,
HE HAD COMPLETE TRUST
IN HIS WIFE,
BUT THAT
SHE EVENTUALLY BETRAYED HIM,
MAKING HER HUSBAND
FEEL PARANOID,
OF COMING UP WITH A SCHEME
TO HAVE JERRY KILLED.
IT'S - - IT'S JUST
TRAGIC THAT JERRY WAS A - -
A SOLID, GOOD MEMBER
OF THE COMMUNITY
AND HE JUST HAPPENED TO PICK
THE WRONG WOMAN TO MARRY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
- NICE.
- IS THAT GOOD?
- YEAH.
- ALL RIGHT.
SHOOT YOUR ARM ALL THE WAY BACK.
FOLLOW THROUGH.
HAND BACK.
ALL RIGHT.
YEAH.
PUT SOME - - YES.
- GREAT.
- ALL RIGHT.
JERRY GLASER WAS VERY WELL
KNOWN AND VERY LIKED IN THE COMMUNITY.
JERRY WAS AN ELECTRICIAN
AT WARNER ROBINS AIR FORCE BASE.
OKAY.
LET'S CHECK OUT THE BURGERS.
ALL RIGHT.
SOUNDS GOOD.
THEY WERE NOT RICH.
THEY WERE YOUR AVERAGE
MIDDLE-CLASS FAMILY
BUT LIVING WELL.
JUST AN ALL-AROUND GOOD FAMILY
FROM WHAT YOU COULD SEE.
HEY, TAYLOR,
COULD YOU HELP YOUR SISTER?
YEAH.
THANK YOU.
YOU REMEMBER I LIKE MINE
A LITTLE PINK, RIGHT?
EIGHTEEN YEARS OF MARRIAGE,
AND YOU STILL DON'T TRUST ME.
THANK YOU, MR. GLASER.
YOU'RE WELCOME,
MRS. GLASER.
JERRY AND DOROTHY
HAD A GOOD, LOVING RELATIONSHIP.
THEY HAD TWO CHILDREN - -
A 15-YEAR-OLD BOY
AND A 13-YEAR-OLD GIRL.
AND THEY WERE WHAT APPEARED
TO BE A VERY CLOSE FAMILY.
DELICIOUS.
DIG IN, GANG.
THEY WOULD HAVE BARBECUES.
THEY WENT TO SPORTING EVENTS.
THIS FAMILY
DID A LOT OF THINGS TOGETHER
IN A VERY,
WARM AND LOVING WAY.
THIS LOOKS DELICIOUS.
THERE YOU GO.
THE METABOLISM
OF A TEENAGER.
GOD, I MISS THOSE DAYS.
ME, TOO.
SERIOUSLY?
THAT'S GROSS.
WELL, I THINK THIS COULD BE
NORTHSIDE'S YEAR.
I THINK SO.
YEAH.
THAT NEW, QUARTERBACK,
WHAT'S HIS NAME?
- CLAY PHILLIPS.
- YEAH.
THAT KID'S GOT ONE HELL
OF AN ARM ON HIM.
WELL, IF THEY MAKE IT TO STATE,
WE'RE GOING.
DEFINITELY.
WELL, WHAT DO YOU KNOW?
IT LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE MIGHT BE
COMING AROUND AFTER ALL.
I LIKE FOOTBALL.
SINCE WHEN?
SINCE JAKE FANNING
JOINED THE TEAM.
JAKE FANNING?
I THOUGHT HE PLAYED BASEBALL.
HE'S DOING BOTH THIS YEAR - -
AS HIS NUMBER-ONE FAN HERE
WOULD JUST LOVE TO TELL YOU.
SHUT UP, DAVID.
I'M NOT EVEN INTO HIM ANYMORE.
THAT WAS LIKE TWO WEEKS AGO.
WELL,
WHEN THE TIME DOES COME
AND BOYS
START COMING AROUND,
THEY BETTER BEWARE...
'CAUSE I'LL BE WATCHING!
LORD, HELP US.
KEEPING HIS FAMILY SAFE
HAS ALWAYS BEEN 41-YEAR-OLD
JERRY GLASER'S FIRST PRIORITY.
AND, HERE, IN THE TIGHT-KNIT
MILITARY COMMUNITY
OF WARNER ROBINS,
THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN EASY TO DO.
BUT IN THE FALL OF 1985,
THAT SENSE OF SECURITY
STARTS TO CRUMBLE.
YOU HAVEN'T SEEN
"THE GOONIES" YET?
MY GOD, IT'S SO GOOD.
YEAH, MY MOM
CAN DRIVE US TO THE MOVIES,
THEN I'LL JUST ASK MY DAD.
YEAH, I'LL ASK HIM TONIGHT
AND I'LL LET YOU KNOW TOMORROW
FOR SURE.
OKAY.
BYE.
PERFECT.
IF THIS IS ONE
OF DAVID'S STUPID FRIENDS...
MY GOD.
MY GOD.
MY GOD. MY GOD.
MY GOD.
THEIR 13-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER,
JENNIFER, SAW SOMEONE
THAT SHE DID NOT KNOW.
SHE GOT VERY FRIGHTENED
AND CALLED HER FATHER,
WHO WAS STILL AT WORK.
- Hello?
- DAD! DAD!
COME HOME, PLEASE!
PLEASE!
JERRY IMMEDIATELY
CALLS THE WARNER ROBINS POLICE.
BUT, BY THE TIME
HE AND THE OFFICERS ARRIVE,
THE INTRUDER IS GONE.
STILL, POLICE PROMISED TO DO
ALL THEY CAN TO TRACK
DOWN THE PEEPING TOM.
OKAY.
THANK YOU, OFFICERS.
GOOD NIGHT.
BELIEVE ME, SWEETIE.
WHOEVER THIS CREEP IS,
I WON'T LET HIM HURT YOU.
HIS EYES.
THE WAY HE WAS LOOKING AT ME.
I KNOW, I KNOW.
I'M SORRY THIS HAPPENED.
BUT, TRUST ME, THE POLICE
ARE HANDLING IT.
OKAY.
THEY'LL GET HIM.
JERRY WAS QUITE UPSET
BY THIS.
THIS IS - - THIS REALLY RATTLED
HIM, AS IT WOULD ANY FATHER.
HE WAS QUITE CONCERNED
ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON
IN HIS NEIGHBORHOOD.
WHAT A NIGHT.
POOR JENNIFER.
YEAH.
I'M READY FOR SOME SLEEP.
YOU KNOW, I WAS THINKING, MAYBE
WE SHOULD GET THE LOCKS CHANGED.
JERRY, YOU KNOW THOSE THINGS
MAKE ME NERVOUS.
NO ONE'S HURTING MY FAMILY.
A MONTH GOES BY WITHOUT
ANY LEADS IN THE PEEPING TOM CASE.
BUT WITH THE AUTUMN SEMESTER
IN FULL SWING,
JERRY AND HIS FAMILY
HAVE PLENTY OF DISTRACTIONS.
RAD! GO, EAGLES!
WHOO!
WOW,
IT IS REALLY COMING DOWN.
EVERY YEAR, IN OCTOBER,
THEY HAVE THE WARNER
ROBINS-NORTHSIDE FOOTBALL GAME.
AND I GUARANTEE YOU,
THREE-QUARTERS OF THE CITY OF
WARNER ROBINS
WAS AT THAT BALLGAME.
GOD, DO YOU THINK THEY'RE GOING
TO PLAY TONIGHT IN THIS WEATHER?
YEAH.
THEY'RE GONNA PLAY
AND THEY'RE GONNA WIN.
YEAH, THEY'RE GONNA
WIN STATE THIS YEAR.
GUARANTEE IT.
ESPECIALLY
WITH JAKE AS QUARTERBACK.
MY GOD.
I LEFT ENOUGH JUST ROOM
FOR DESSERT.
BE MY GUEST.
COME ON.
LET ME JUST GRAB YOU SOMETHING.
NO. I THINK I'M GOING
TO CALL A TIME-OUT.
ALL RIGHT.
WHO WANTS TO GO THE BOOSTER CLUB
BAKE SALE WITH ME?
THIS GUY.
ONLY IF THEY HAVE
THOSE LEMON BARS.
- THAT'S RIGHT.
- YES.
NO, THANK YOU.
I'M GONNA TO STAY HERE
WITH DOROTHY, WHERE IT'S DRY.
OKAY, COME ON.
LET'S GO, GANG.
HAVE FUN, GUYS.
AS THE GLASERS'
TAILGATE STARTS TO WIND DOWN,
JERRY AND DOROTHY
ARE COMPLETELY UNAWARE THAT,
BACK AT THEIR HOUSE ACROSS TOWN,
THEY'VE GOT COMPANY.
I'LL GET THE COOLER,
DAD.
OKAY, SON.
GREAT.
IT'S GAME TIME,
AND THE RAIN IS CLEARING OUT.
BUT BEFORE THE GLASER'S EVEN
GET TO THE STADIUM...
HEY, HON, YOU OKAY?
I'M NOT FEELING WELL.
GOSH.
WELL, DO YOU STILL THINK
YOU CAN MAKE THE GAME?
I'M NOT SO SURE.
- LET'S DO THIS.
- ALL RIGHT.
Y'ALL READY?
I THINK WE MIGHT HAVE
A PROBLEM.
KIDS, I MIGHT HAVE
TO TAKE YOUR MOM HOME.
SHE'S NOT FEELING VERY WELL.
DOES THAT MEAN
WE ALL HAVE TO LEAVE?
BUT IT'S HOMECOMING.
YEAH.
WE CAN TAKE 'EM HOME.
IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL.
- YEAH, LET 'EM STAY.
- FINE.
BUT YOU GUYS
STICK WITH YOUR AUNT AND UNCLE.
- OKAY?
- WE WILL.
HEY, MOM, FEEL BETTER.
THANKS.
HAVE FUN.
I LOVE YOU.
ALL RIGHT.
SEE YA.
I'LL CALL YOU.
ENJOY THE GAME.
GO, EAGLES.
- SORRY I RUINED YOUR EVENING.
- DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
WE'LL LISTEN TO THE GAME
ON THE RADIO.
OKAY.
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING
IS THAT YOU'RE OKAY.
I THINK I'M JUST GOING
TO LAY DOWN ON THE COUCH.
OKAY,
I'LL GO TO THE BEDROOM,
GRAB YOU A BLANKET.
THANK YOU.
IT'S HOMECOMING,
A HUGE NIGHT FOR FOOTBALL
IN WARNER ROBINS, GEORGIA.
GOD, DO YOU THINK THEY'RE EVEN
GONNA PLAY TONIGHT IN THIS WEATHER?
YEAH. THEY'RE GONNA PLAY,
AND THEY'RE GONNA WIN.
BUT WHEN JERRY GLASER'S WIFE,
DOROTHY, SUDDENLY FALLS ILL,
THE COUPLE IS FORCED
TO END THE NIGHT EARLY.
Y'ALL READY?
I THINK
WE MIGHT HAVE A PROBLEM.
BACK HOME,
AS DOROTHY LIES DOWN TO REST,
JERRY WALKS UP TO HIS BEDROOM,
WHERE HE'S HIT BY
THE BIGGEST SHOCK OF HIS LIFE.
GUNSHOT CREASED HIS HEAD.
NO!
HE WAS THINKING, "MY GOD,
THIS IS IT,"
BECAUSE WHEN YOU GOT
A GUN POINTED RIGHT STRAIGHT
AT YOUR HEAD,
IT'S THE END OF THE LINE.
THE SHOOTER PANICS
AND RUNS OUT OF THE BEDROOM.
AT THAT POINT, JERRY THEN GOES
WHERE HE THINKS HE'S GOT
A. 38 CALIBER PISTOL.
HE LOOKS FOR IT, AND IT'S GONE.
DOROTHY?
- JERRY!
- DOROTHY!
JERRY, JERRY, THERE WAS A MAN!
HE WAS IN BLACK.
- ARE YOU OKAY?
- HE WENT OUT THE DOOR.
- ARE - - ARE YOU HURT?
- MY GOD.
MY GOD.
YOU GOT HIT.
JERRY, ARE YOU OKAY?
JERRY, SIT DOWN.
SIT DOWN.
ARE YOU OKAY?
YOU'RE BLEEDING.
MY GOD.
MY GOD.
HERE.
I'M GONNA CALL FOR AN AMBULANCE.
OKAY?
JUST SIT HERE.
SHH, SHH.
HOLD ON.
I'M JUST GONNA CALL.
AS JERRY HEADS TO THE HOSPITAL,
WARNER ROBINS POLICE
ARRIVE AT HIS HOUSE.
WITH THE SHOOTER STILL AT LARGE,
THEY WORK QUICKLY
TO PROCESS THE SCENE.
WHEN I WALKED IN,
I NOTICED SOME RED DROPS
ON THE BEDROOM FLOOR AND ALSO
THE SHELF IN THE BEDROOM
WHERE THE GUN WAS KEPT.
POLICE COLLECT
WHAT LITTLE EVIDENCE
THEY CAN FIND AND FOLLOW UP
WITH JERRY AND HIS WIFE
WHEN THEY RETURN HOME
A FEW HOURS LATER.
JERRY WAS ONLY HIT BY ONE BULLET
THAT JUST GRAZED HIS TEMPLE.
HE WAS HOME THAT NIGHT
WITH A BANDAGE ON HIS HEAD.
OKAY, SO HE WAS WEARING A BLACK,
HOODED JACKET, BLACK GLOVES
AND BLUE JEANS,
RIGHT?
YES.
AND HOW BIG OF A MAN
WOULD YOU SAY HE WAS?
HE DIDN'T SEEM THAT BIG.
YEAH, YEAH.
AVERAGE BUILD.
MAYBE 5'8 ", 5'9".
JERRY HAD NO IDEA WHY SOMEONE
WOULD BE COMING AFTER HIM,
THIS LOVING FATHER
WHO WAS ALWAYS INVOLVED
IN THE COMMUNITY.
THIS HAD TO BE A ROBBERY.
THAT'S THE ONLY THING
THAT IT COULD BE.
BUT IT DIDN'T APPEAR
THAT THE HOUSE
HAD BEEN BROKEN INTO AT ALL.
WE NOTICED THAT THERE WERE
NO SIGNS OF FORCED ENTRY.
DOES ANYONE
BESIDES YOU AND YOUR KIDS
HAVE A KEY TO YOUR HOUSE?
MY SISTER NELL.
BUT HER AND HER HUSBAND, ANDY,
WERE AT THE FOOTBALL GAME
ALL NIGHT.
ANYONE AT ALL THAT YOU THINK
OF THAT COULD BE BEHIND THIS?
- NO. I - - NO.
- N-NO.
WELL, THERE - -
THERE WAS AN INCIDENT
ABOUT A MONTH AGO.
GO ON.
WELL, WELL, THERE WAS A MAN
OUTSIDE MY DAUGHTER'S WINDOW.
AND, HE - - HE - -
HE WAS SPYING ON HER.
I - - I REPORTED IT TO - -
TO THE POLICE.
EXCUSE ME.
WE'VE CANVASSED
THE ENTIRE HOUSE,
AND THERE'S NO SIGN
OF A GUN.
ARE - - ARE SURE
IT WAS IN THE NIGHTSTAND?
YES. YES.
THE ONLY THING THAT WAS MISSING
FROM THE RESIDENCE
WAS JERRY'S. 38 REVOLVER.
THERE WAS NO OTHER PROPERTY
TAKEN FROM THE RESIDENCE.
DO YOU SUPPOSE ONE OF YOUR KIDS
COULD HAVE TAKEN IT?
NO.
NO. THEY - - THEY
DON'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT IT.
THE KIDS.
WHERE ARE THEY?
THEY'RE AT MY SISTER'S HOUSE.
IT'S PROBABLY BEST
IF WE STAYED THERE TONIGHT, TOO.
OKAY.
THAT'S PROBABLY A GOOD IDEA.
MRS. GLASER, WOULD YOU
LIKE TO COLLECT A FEW THINGS?
OKAY.
THANK YOU.
I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
OKAY.
JERRY IS NOT A STUPID MAN.
HE LOOKS AT THE EVIDENCE,
AND HE THINKS THAT THIS IS NOT
A BURGLARY GONE WRONG.
HE THINKS SOMEBODY IS OUT
TO GET HIM.
AND WITH JERRY'S GUN MISSING,
POLICE HAVE TO WONDER,
"COULD HE HAVE BEEN SHOT
BY HIS OWN WEAPON?"
AFTER THE SHOOTING,
JERRY'S PERSONALITY CHANGED.
HE WAS AFRAID OF ANYONE THAT WAS
AROUND HIM THAT HE DIDN'T KNOW.
HEY, DAD.
DAD.
JERRY, FEARING THAT SOMEONE
MIGHT COME BACK
AND DO HARM TO HIM AGAIN, WENT
AND PURCHASED A. 357 MAGNUM.
HE KEPT IT WITH HIM
AT ALL TIMES.
HE - - HE WAS AFRAID TO - - TO BE
ANYWHERE WITHOUT HIS WEAPON.
HEY.
I,
I THOUGHT YOU COULD USE THIS.
THANKS.
YEAH.
HEY, UM, IS THE GUN
REALLY NECESSARY, DAD?
HIS SON AND HIS DAUGHTER
WERE CONCERNED WITH HIS BEHAVIOR
BECOMING MORE PARANOID
AND CARRYING THE WEAPON
WITH HIM AT ALL TIMES.
THEY WERE SCARED, AS WELL.
JERRY WENT FROM BEING
A VERY OUTGOING, FUN GUY,
WHO WAS INVOLVED IN HIS KIDS'
LIVES, INVOLVED IN HIS FAMILY,
INVOLVED IN THE COMMUNITY,
TO SOMEONE WHO HAD VERY MUCH
WITHDRAWN INTO HIMSELF.
THOUGH HIS FAMILY
TRIES TO REASSURE HIM,
KNOWING HIS SHOOTER
IS STILL ON THE LOOSE,
JERRY JUST CAN'T SHAKE
THE FEELING HE'S BEING HUNTED.
HELLO.
HELLO?
HE HEARD THE HEAVY BREATHING,
AND IT TERRIFIED HIM.
IT JUST
ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED HIM.
HE HAD ALREADY SURVIVED
ONE SHOOTING.
HE DIDN'T THINK HE WAS GOING
TO SURVIVE ANOTHER ONE.
FIVE DAYS AFTER BEING SHOT
POINT-BLANK IN THE BEDROOM
OF HIS GEORGIA HOME...
NO!
...AN ALREADY PARANOID FATHER
OF TWO, JERRY GLASER,
RECEIVES A DISTURBING
PHONE CALL.
HELLO.
HELLO?
IT WAS SOMEONE JUST CALLING,
BREATHING HEAVY,
AND THEN HANGING UP.
AND OF COURSE,
IT REALLY SEALED FOR JERRY
THAT SOMEONE WAS AFTER HIM,
THAT SOMEONE
WAS COMING TO GET HIM.
WHAT TIME DID HE CALL?
IT - - IT WAS, LIKE, 2:00 A. M.
I - - I DON'T REMEMBER.
IT'S JUST - -
SOMEONE'S TRYING TO GET ME.
HERE.
DRINK SOMETHING.
DID HE SAY ANYTHING?
IT WAS JUST HEAVY BREATHING,
LIKE SOMEONE'S TAUNTING US.
WELL, WE'LL GET OUR GUYS
TO SET UP A WIRETAP.
AND IF ANYTHING COMES UP,
WHATEVER IT COULD BE,
JUST LET US KNOW RIGHT AWAY.
OKAY?
THANK YOU.
JUST - - I'M TELLING YOU,
SOMEONE'S TRYING TO GET ME.
TRUST ME, JERRY.
WE'RE DOING EVERYTHING
WE CAN TO GET THE GUY
WHO DID THIS TO YOU.
WE'LL BE IN TOUCH.
HE WAS ALREADY PARANOID.
HE WAS DEPRESSED AND, HE - -
HE JUST DIDN'T TRUST ANYBODY.
THE FAMILY HAS TO WALK
VERY LIGHTLY AROUND JERRY.
AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT
THEY NEVER HAD TO DO BEFORE.
J-JERRY.
JERRY.
JERRY, IT'S ME.
PUT THE GUN DOWN.
JERRY, I-IT'S DOROTHY.
PUT THE GUN DOWN.
JERRY!
JERRY!
IT'S ME.
- GOD.
- IT'S ME.
PUT THE GUN DOWN.
I'M SORRY.
I...
- PUT THE GUN DOWN.
- I'M S--
- IT'S OKAY.
- I'M SORRY.
IT'S OKAY.
IT'S OKAY.
GOD, I THOUGHT
YOU WERE SOMEBODY ELSE.
IT'S OKAY.
IT'S OKAY.
JERRY, IT'S OKAY.
JERRY WAS HAVING BOUTS
OF AMNESIA.
HE WAS, UM, DOING THINGS
WITHOUT REALIZING IT.
IT WAS ALMOST
LIKE HE WAS IN A STATE
WHERE HE COULDN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE
WHO WAS IN FRONT OF HIM.
JERRY IS FALLING APART.
BUT, THEN,
ONE MONTH AFTER THE GLASERS'
PEEPING TOM INCIDENT,
POLICE FINALLY HAVE A SUSPECT.
COULD THIS SAME MAN
BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ATTEMPT
ON JERRY'S LIFE?
THE LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT
IDENTIFIED A SUSPECT
WHO HAD BEEN PEEPING
INTO THE RESIDENCES IN THE AREA.
RONALD STAPP WAS ARRESTED.
THE GLASERS REALLY THOUGHT
THAT THEY HAD GOT THE PERSON
WHO WAS INVOLVED.
HE MATCHED
THE PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
EVEN OF THE SHOOTER, AND THEY
REALLY THOUGHT THAT THE POLICE
HAD FOUND THE RIGHT PERSON.
HEY,
IS THIS GONNA TAKE LONG?
'CAUSE I'VE GOT OTHER STUFF
I'VE GOT TO TAKE CARE OF.
ALL RIGHT, RONALD.
THEN LET'S GET RIGHT TO IT.
WHERE WERE YOU ON THE EVENING
OF OCTOBER 4th?
I THOUGHT Y'ALL
BROUGHT ME IN HERE BECAUSE...
JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION,
RONALD.
LET'S SEE.
I WAS...
I WAS AT MY FRIEND'S HOUSE,
HANGING OUT.
WHAT FRIEND WOULD THAT BE?
GOSH.
UM, LET'S SEE.
WAIT A SECOND.
DID YOU SAY THE 4th?
MY BAD.
I WAS AT HOME,
WATCHING TELEVISION.
IS THERE ANYONE
THAT CAN VOUCH FOR YOU?
I WAS ALONE.
POLICE ARE SUSPICIOUS
OF RONALD'S EVER-CHANGING STORY.
BUT WHEN THEY TELL HIM
HE'S A SUSPECT
IN JERRY GLASER'S SHOOTING,
RONALD
MAKES ONE THING VERY CLEAR.
I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT.
BUT YOU HAVE BEEN TO THE
GLASERS' HOME BEFORE, RIGHT?
TO SPY ON THEIR DAUGHTER?
I WAS JUST LOOKING.
I SWEAR, I HAD NOTHING
TO DO WITH THAT SHOOTING.
WARNER ROBINS POLICE
LOOK INTO BOTH OF RONALD'S ALIBIS
AND SOON DISCOVER THERE IS
SOME TRUTH TO HIS STORIES
AFTER ALL.
WE STARTED TALKING TO WITNESSES
THAT HE FIRST SAID HE WAS WITH,
AND WE GOT THE TRUE STORY.
HE WAS NOT ANYWHERE
NEAR THE GLASER RESIDENCE.
WE HAD NO RECOURSE
BUT TO TURN HIM LOOSE.
BECAUSE YOUR NEIGHBOR WAS ABLE
TO IDENTIFY RONALD STAPP
AS THE PEEPING TOM, AND HE
MATCHES THE DESCRIPTION
OF YOUR DAUGHTER'S PERP,
WE'RE MOVING FORWARD
WITH CHARGES ON THAT FRONT.
BUT WE STILL GOT NOTHING
THAT TIES HIM THE SHOOTING.
BUT WE ARE WATCHING HIM.
WHAT ABOUT THE PHONE CALLS?
WELL,
UNFORTUNATELY,
THEY'RE ALL FROM PAY PHONES, SO
IT DOESN'T LEAVE US WITH MUCH.
SO YOU'RE SAYING
YOU'VE GOT NOTHING?
I DON'T WANT TO
SUGARCOAT IT.
I WISH WE HAD MORE.
WE'RE COMMITTED
TO GETTING THIS GUY.
AND ONCE THEY FOUND OUT
THAT RONALD WAS NOT A SUSPECT
IN THE SHOOTING, IT - -
IT REALLY DISCOURAGED THEM.
JERRY
BECAME EVEN MORE CONCERNED,
MORE PARANOID
THAT SOMEONE WAS STILL OUT THERE
TRYING TO GET HIM.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME,
BUT JERRY NEEDS HIS REST.
COME ON, SWEETIE.
MRS. GLASER?
I THINK IT'S TIME
THAT JERRY SEES SOMEONE.
UM, THIS GUY
IS THE BEST AROUND.
TELL HIM I SENT YOU.
WE NEEDS SOME GOOD NEWS.
HOPEFULLY, I'LL HAVE
SOME FOR YOU VERY SOON.
NELL SAID HE WANTS SOMETHING
SMALL FOR HER BIRTHDAY,
SO I WAS THINKING
WE COULD HOST A DINNER PARTY,
MAYBE AT THAT ITALIAN PLACE
THAT SHE LOVES.
THAT SOUNDS LIKE FUN, RIGHT?
- I HOPE Y'ALL ARE HUNGRY.
- AAH!
THEY'RE TRYING TO GET ME!
SOMEONE HERE'S
TRYING TO GET ME!
THREE WEEKS AFTER JERRY
GLASER SURVIVED A GLANCING SHOT
TO THE HEAD...
...POLICE ARE NO CLOSER TO
FINDING THE PERSON RESPONSIBLE.
I DON'T WANT TO SUGARCOAT IT.
I WISH WE HAD MORE.
AND THOUGH HIS PHYSICAL
INJURIES HAVE STARTED TO HEAL,
EMOTIONALLY, JERRY
IS ON THE BRINK OF COLLAPSE.
- I HOPE Y'ALL ARE HUNGRY.
- AAH!
THEY'RE TRYING TO GET ME!
SOMEONE HERE'S
TRYING TO GET ME!
JERRY IS DEALING
WITH EXHAUSTION.
HE'S DEALING WITH MALNUTRITION.
HE'S JUST FALLING APART.
SO THE POLICE STRONGLY SUGGEST
THAT HE SEEK HELP
WITH A PSYCHIATRIST.
SO, JERRY,
I WOULD LIKE TO GO AHEAD
AND SCHEDULE
A FOLLOW-UP NEXT WEEK.
MAYBE NOW THAT
YOU'VE MET ME,
YOU'LL FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE
COMING TO THE OFFICE.
MAYBE.
JERRY, I'D - -
I'D LIKE YOU TO CONSIDER PUTTING
AWAY THAT GUN FOR A WHILE.
I CAN'T.
AT LEAST
FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS.
GIVEN YOUR MENTAL STATE
AND YOUR LACK OF SLEEP,
I DON'T THINK
IT'S A GOOD IDEA
FOR YOU TO BE
RUNNING AROUND WITH THAT.
BUT WHAT IF HE COMES BACK?
JUST THINK ABOUT IT FOR ME.
OKAY?
AND I'D STRONGLY ADVISE
YOU GET CHECKED OUT
BY A HEAD TRAUMA SPECIALIST.
ONCE HE WENT TO SEE
THE HEAD TRAUMA SPECIALIST,
JERRY
WAS TOLD A MILD CONCUSSION
AS A RESULT OF THE SHOOTING,
COULD BE RELATED TO
WHAT HE WAS EXPERIENCING.
HE WENT HOME
THAT DAY FEELING BETTER.
IT ALSO MADE DOROTHY
FEEL BETTER.
IT - - IT WAS LOOKING UP.
THEY - - THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE
ON THE ROAD TO RECOVERY.
IT'S SO GOOD TO HAVE YOU IN BED
WITH ME AGAIN.
IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK.
WE SHOULD TAKE A TRIP.
JUST YOU AND ME.
MAYBE FLORIDA?
YEAH.
THAT SOUNDS NICE.
I THINK
IT'D BE GOOD FOR YOU.
OKAY.
GOOD NIGHT.
I LOVE YOU.
I LOVE YOU.
HONEY, DON'T.
JERRY.
HELLO.
LEAVE ME ALONE!
SAME OLD THING.
BREATHING.
NOTHING SAID.
AND THAT TAKES WHAT LITTLE BIT
OF PROGRESS THAT SEEMED TO BE
OCCURRING
SPIRALING RIGHT BACK DOWN.
SO THIS PHONE CALL,
IT CAME FROM A PAY PHONE TOO?
- YES, MA'AM.
- UNBELIEVABLE!
WHAT ABOUT RONALD STAPP?
HE MAY BE A PERVERT,
BUT WE DON'T THINK
HE'S A KILLER.
THEY HAD LOOKED INTO RONALD.
THEY HAD WATCHED
HIM THROUGH SURVEILLANCE.
THEY HAD TALKED TO PEOPLE.
THEY HAD DONE AN INVESTIGATION
ON THIS GUY,
AND THERE WAS NOTHING
TYING HIM TO THE SHOOTING.
SO THEY ELIMINATED HIM
AS A SUSPECT.
JERRY, I THINK
IT MIGHT BE WISE
FOR YOU TO TURN YOUR GUN
OVER TO ME.
I CAN'T.
I'M JUST CONCERNED THAT YOU
MIGHT HURT YOURSELF OR SOMEONE
YOU CARE ABOUT.
WHOEVER SHOT ME
IS GOING TO COME BACK FOR ME.
AND I'M GONNA TO BE READY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOT ONLY IS JERRY
A DANGER TO HIMSELF,
HE'S A DANGER TO HIS FAMILY.
HE STILL WILL NOT LET
THEM TAKE HIS FIREARMS.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET ME.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET MY FAMILY.
DETECTIVES
PROMISE TO PURSUE EVERY LEAD,
BUT, PRIVATELY, THEY WONDER
IF THE BIGGEST THREAT
TO JERRY GLASER
IS JERRY GLASER HIMSELF - -
THAT IS, UNTIL THE MORNING
OF OCTOBER 31, 1985,
FOUR WEEKS AFTER THE SHOOTING.
OKAY, STAY PUT.
YEAH, WE'RE ON OUR WAY.
THERE'S BEEN ANOTHER SHOOTING
AT THE GLASER HOUSE.
LET'S GO.
WHAT THE HELL?
JERRY GLASER HAD BEEN SHOT.
AT THIS POINT, DETECTIVES
DON'T KNOW WHETHER HE HAD BEEN
SHOT BY A GUNMAN, SHOT BY - -
IN SELF-DEFENSE,
OR SHOT HIMSELF.
UNFORTUNATELY,
HE DIED BEFORE POLICE
COULD ASK HIM WHAT HAPPENED.
THE POLICE KNEW
THAT BOTH DOROTHY AND JERRY
HAD BEEN
GETTING THESE PHONE CALLS.
THERE HAD BEEN THIS SHOOTING
A MONTH BEFORE.
THEY THOUGHT THAT THERE WAS
SOME KIND OF OUTSIDE GUNMAN.
BUT WHEN POLICE
HEAR FROM JERRY'S WIFE, DOROTHY,
THEY'RE SURPRISED TO FIND
THAT'S NOT AT ALL THE CASE.
THE TRUTH IS MUCH MORE SHOCKING.
I WENT INTO THE BEDROOM 'CAUSE
I THOUGHT HE WAS SLEEPING.
AND I GOT IN THE BED
WITH HIM 'CAUSE
I WANTED TO SEE IF HE WAS AWAKE.
HE WAS AWAKE,
BUT - - BUT HE WASN'T.
IT WAS LIKE HE WASN'T HIMSELF.
AND THEN,
HE POINTED THE GUN AT ME.
AND I WAS SAYING, "JERRY,
IT'S ME.
IT'S ME.
LOOK AT ME."
I TRIED TO GRAB THE GUN
TO GET IT AWAY FROM HIM.
AND IT JUST - -
AND IT WENT OFF.
SO WHEN THE GUN WENT OFF,
WHO WAS HOLDING IT?
I...
WE BOTH WERE.
I THOUGHT HE WAS GONNA SHOOT ME.
AFTER THE SHOOTING,
THERE WAS A CORONER'S INQUEST.
AND AFTER HEARING
EVERYTHING, HOW IT HAPPENED,
THE CORONER RULED IT ACCIDENTAL.
- THANK YOU.
- THANK YOU.
I HOPE THE POOR GUY
IS AT PEACE NOW.
YEAH.
DAVID, I'M SO SORRY.
JENNIFER, I'M SO SORRY.
DOROTHY, MY HEART
GOES OUT TO YOU ALL.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
FOR WHAT'S LEFT
OF THE GLASER FAMILY,
THIS TRAGEDY IS THE CAP ON TWO
MONTHS OF EXCRUCIATING TERROR.
THEY CAN ONLY HOPE
THAT WITH GRIEF,
EVENTUALLY, WILL COME CLOSURE.
AFTER MONTHS
GO BY WITH NO MOVEMENT
IN THE CASE OF JERRY GLASER'S
FIRST SHOOTING,
DETECTIVES ARE FORCED TO MOVE
ON TO MORE PRESSING MATTERS...
UNTIL FIVE YEARS LATER,
WHEN A STARTLING NEW LEAD BREAKS
THE INVESTIGATION WIDE OPEN.
EXCUSE ME, THE RECEPTIONIST
SAID I NEED TO SEE YOU.
FOR WHAT?
I NEED TO REPORT A MURDER
FOR HIRE.
I'M GONNA HAVE TO
CALL YOU BACK.
NO!
FIVE YEARS AFTER THE
ACCIDENTAL DEATH OF JERRY GLASER,
WARNER ROBINS DETECTIVES ARE HIT
WITH A STUNNING DEVELOPMENT.
I NEED TO REPORT A MURDER
FOR HIRE.
I'M GONNA HAVE TO
CALL YOU BACK.
WHAT'VE YOU GOT?
SO MY AUNT COMES TO ME
AND SAYS, "I NEED YOUR HELP."
I SAID, "SURE,
ANYTHING YOU NEED."
YOU KNOW, I'M THINKING
IT'S A FAMILY MATTER,
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
AND THEN, SHE SAYS, "I NEED YOU
TO KILL SOMEBODY FOR ME."
WHO?
HER SISTER'S HUSBAND,
ANDY.
WHY'D SHE WANT YOU
TO KILL HIM?
TO COLLECT THE LIFE INSURANCE
POLICY.
SAID SHE'D GIVE ME
A BIG CUT TOO.
ALL RIGHT,
WHAT'S YOUR AUNT'S NAME?
DOROTHY.
DOROTHY GLASER.
WARNER ROBINS POLICE CERTAINLY
KNOW THE NAME DOROTHY GLASER.
BUT COULD THE GRIEVING WIDOW
WHO ACCIDENTLY SHOT HER HUSBAND
TO DEATH BACK IN 1985
BE THE SAME WOMAN
NOW PLOTTING A MURDER?
THE DETECTIVES HEAR THAT THIS
WOMAN WHO HAD BEEN INVOLVED
IN A SHOOTING
FIVE YEARS EARLIER,
NOW WANTS TO HIRE SOMEONE
TO MURDER HER BROTHER-IN-LAW.
I THINK WE MIGHT HAVE
A PROBLEM.
POLICE KNOW THAT
IF THIS RUMOR IS TRUE,
IT CALLS ALL THE CIRCUMSTANCES
OF JERRY GLASER'S DEATH
INTO QUESTION.
SO THEY SET OUT
TO CONFIRM BOBBY'S STORY
AND TRY TO FIND OUT
WHO THE REAL DOROTHY IS
BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
THANKS.
YOU HEAR?
LOUD AND CLEAR.
OBVIOUSLY, WE HAD TO,
CORROBORATE THE INFORMATION.
BOBBY WAS A COOPERATIVE
WITNESS.
AND WE PLACED A BODY RECORDER
ON HIS PERSON
AND ALSO A MICROPHONE SO THAT WE
COULD HEAR THE CONVERSATIONS.
THEN WE SET UP
A MEETING WITH DOROTHY.
SO, WHAT EXACTLY
IS YOUR PLAN?
MAKE IT LOOK
LIKE A ROBBERY GONE WRONG,
AND NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW. I MEAN,
WHAT IF SOMETHING DOES GO WRONG?
LISTEN.
I GET IT.
YOU'RE NERVOUS.
BUT TRUST ME.
I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
I'VE DONE IT BEFORE.
WITH JERRY.
THAT'S IT.
ON TAPE, DOROTHY GLASER
CONFESSES THAT SHE ACTIVELY
PLANNED THE FIRST ATTEMPT
ON HER HUSBAND'S LIFE.
BUT SHE DOESN'T STOP THERE.
DOROTHY STATED THAT SHE HAD BEEN
TO THE BALLGAME, CAME HOME,
AND THAT SHE HAD HIRED SOMEONE
TO BE IN THE RESIDENCE.
I'LL GO TO THE BEDROOM,
GRAB YOU A BLANKET.
THANK YOU.
AND THEY WERE TO KILL JERRY
WHEN THEY WALKED IN.
SEE, I HIRED SOMEONE TO DO IT,
BUT THE LITTLE SON OF A BITCH
COULDN'T GET THE JOB
DONE RIGHT.
SO I TOOK MATTERS
INTO MY OWN HANDS.
WHAT DID YOU DO?
AFTER THE FIRST SHOOTING,
I HAD AN ENTIRE MONTH TO PREPARE
THE POLICE AND NEIGHBORS
AND FRIENDS THAT HE WAS
GOING CRAZY AND DELIRIOUS
AND THIS IDEA THAT SOMEONE WAS
COMING BACK TO GET HIM.
THE PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAUMA
THAT SHE SUBJECTED HIM TO
FOR A MONTH
BEFORE KILLING HIM,
JUST HEAPING IT ON
AND MAKING HIM SO PARANOID
ABOUT EVERYTHING
THAT WAS HAPPENING...
LEAVE ME ALONE!
...WAS SETTING HIM UP
JUST TO SPIRAL DOWNWARDS IN - -
IN PSYCHOLOGICAL HELL.
IT WAS TOO EASY.
AND AFTER WEAVING A
WEB OF FEAR AROUND HER HUSBAND
FOR NEARLY A MONTH, DOROTHY
FINALLY GOES IN FOR THE KILL,
SHOOTING JERRY IN THE STOMACH
WITH HIS OWN GUN.
SHE SET THE WHOLE THING UP.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO.
SO YOU'RE SAYING THAT JERRY'S
DEATH WASN'T AN ACCIDENT?
DON'T WORRY.
I GOT AWAY WITH IT ONCE.
WE CAN
GET AWAY WITH IT AGAIN.
DOROTHY GLASER,
YOU NEED TO COME WITH US.
LET'S GO.
YOU SET ME UP.
YOU SON OF A BITCH.
HANDS ON THE TABLE.
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT
TO REMAIN SILENT.
- ANYTHING YOU SAY...
- YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE.
...CAN AND WILL BE USED AGAINST
YOU IN A COURT OF LAW.
IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD
AN ATTORNEY,
ONE WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU.
AFTER THEY ARRESTED DOROTHY,
SHE CONFESSED TO THE CONSPIRACY
TO WHAT SHE HAD DONE WITH BOBBY.
UM, SHE DID NOT CONFESS
TO THE MURDER OF JERRY.
SHE CLAIMED THAT SHE WAS JUST
TRYING TO PUT BOBBY AT EASE
AND SHE WAS TRYING TO MAKE
HIM FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE,
THAT IT WAS OKAY TO CARRY OUT
THAT PARTICULAR SCHEME.
BUT DETECTIVES
DON'T BUY HER STORY.
THE POLICE CHARGED HER
IMMEDIATELY
FOR THE CONSPIRACY ON WHAT SHE
WAS TRYING TO HIRE BOBBY FOR.
BUT, ULTIMATELY, THEY ALSO
CHARGED HER FOR THE MURDER
OF JERRY THAT HAD HAPPENED
5 YEARS EARLIER.
UNFORTUNATELY, WE NEVER
FOUND OUT WHO THE ACTUAL SHOOTER
WAS ON THE FIRST INCIDENT.
WHOEVER THE FIRST
SHOOTER WAS, PROSECUTORS
SPECULATE THAT DOROTHY LED HIM
TO JERRY'S WEAPON UPSTAIRS.
AND WHEN JERRY REPLACED
HIS STOLEN GUN JUST WEEKS LATER,
LITTLE DID HE KNOW HE WAS
BUYING HIS OWN MURDER WEAPON.
THE DETECTIVES BELIEVED
THAT DOROTHY HAD KILLED JERRY
FOR $250,000 OF INSURANCE MONEY.
SHE HAD BLOWN THROUGH EVERYTHING
THAT SHE HAD RECEIVED
FROM JERRY'S MURDER,
AND SHE NEEDED MORE.
DOROTHY WANTED BOBBY
TO KILL HER BROTHER-IN-LAW
FOR THE SAME REASON
THAT SHE HAD KILLED JERRY - -
FOR THE INSURANCE MONEY.
SHE WAS JUST A - -
A SCHEMING, CONNIVING WOMAN
WHO KNEW WHAT SHE WANTED
AND WAS NOT AFRAID
TO TAKE ANY STEPS TO GET IT.
IF SHE WASN'T HAPPY,
DIVORCE THE MAN.
GOD PUT THAT MAN ON EARTH
FOR A PURPOSE.
SHE DID NOT HAVE THE RIGHT
TO TAKE IT AWAY FROM HIM.
SO, THEREFORE,
I THINK SHE'S A GREEDY DEVIL.
ON AUGUST 20, 1993,
DOROTHY GLASER IS FOUND
GUILTY OF MALICE MURDER
AND CRIMINAL ATTEMPT
TO COMMIT MURDER.
SHE IS SENTENCED
TO LIFE IN PRISON.
SHE CAME ACROSS
AS A NORMAL PERSON.
SHE WAS A WIFE,
SHE WAS A MOTHER, AND TO BE
HIDING WHAT SHE HAD INSIDE, UM,
WHETHER IT WAS EVIL
OR WHATEVER IT WAS,
IT'S JUST OVERWHELMING.
EIGHTEEN YEARS OF MARRIAGE,
AND YOU STILL DON'T TRUST ME.
- THANK YOU, MR. GLASER.
- YOU'RE WELCOME, MRS. GLASER.
JERRY HAD BEEN
MARRIED TO DOROTHY FOR 18 YEARS.
LIKE MOST,
MARRIAGE RELATIONSHIPS,
HE HAD COMPLETE TRUST
IN HIS WIFE,
BUT THAT
SHE EVENTUALLY BETRAYED HIM,
MAKING HER HUSBAND
FEEL PARANOID,
OF COMING UP WITH A SCHEME
TO HAVE JERRY KILLED.
IT'S - - IT'S JUST
TRAGIC THAT JERRY WAS A - -
A SOLID, GOOD MEMBER
OF THE COMMUNITY
AND HE JUST HAPPENED TO PICK
THE WRONG WOMAN TO MARRY.
