NORTH BEND IS
A SLEEPY SUBURB OF SEATTLE.

I THINK IT HAS 6,500 RESIDENTS.

BUT IT'S - -
IT'S DIFFERENT IN THAT



THERE'S SO MUCH THAT IT OFFERS
OF THE NORTHWEST.

YOU HAVE THE MOUNTAINS.
YOU HAVE HIKING.

YOU HAVE FISHING.

Narrator:
IT'S THIS ACTIVE LIFESTYLE

THAT HAS ALWAYS APPEALED
TO 26-YEAR-OLD

NORTH BEND RESIDENT
TENNYSON JACOBSON

AND HER HUSBAND, KYLE.

COME ON, TENNY.
YOU GOT THIS.

ONE MORE, ALL THE WAY UP.

MY WIFE, TENNYSON,
IS JUST SUCH A - -

A GREAT, YOU KNOW,
WIFE, MOTHER, UH,

AND FRIEND TO PEOPLE,

ALWAYS THINKING OF OTHERS,

YOU KNOW, JUST A SUPER,
KINDHEARTED, AWESOME WOMAN.



- [ GRUNTS ]
- THERE YOU GO. ALL RIGHT.

DROP IT.
ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.

WE OWN A GYM TOGETHER,

AND SHE WORKS OUT
EVERY SINGLE DAY.

SHE'S A PETITE WOMAN.
BUT SHE IS STRONG.

SHE'S SCRAPPY.

SHE KINDA PACKS A PUNCH.

COME ON, TENNY.

THREE, TWO, ONE, TIME.

[ PANTING ]

WATER.

YOU ARE KILLING IT
THIS WEEK, BABE.

THANKS, BABY.

KYLE'S A FIREFIGHTER
FOR THE CITY OF KIRKLAND.

HE IS ONE OF THE STRONGEST
PEOPLE I KNOW.

I KNOW HE WOULD
DO ANYTHING FOR ME.

THAT WAS FIVE ROUNDS.
REALLY?

YEAH.
YOU'RE UP ON THE BOARD.

- THAT'S NOT BAD.
- NO.

MM.

ALL RIGHT. COME ON.
GOTTA STRETCH.

- ALREADY?
- YEAH.

KYLE AND TENNYSON,

AT THE TIME,
THEY WERE NEWLY MARRIED,

HAD A BABY,

YOU KNOW, YOUNG COUPLE
STARTING A FAMILY.

HI, SWEET GIRL.

- HEY, SWEETIE.
- HEY, RYAN.

- HEY, GUYS.
- HEY.

HEY. HOW'S CONSTRUCTION?

YEAH.
UH, IT'S MOVIN' ALONG.

WE HAD A MINOR LITTLE SNAG
WITH THE PERMITS.

BUT, UM, HOPEFULLY,
WE'RE BACK ON TRACK.

OKAY. HEY. LET ME KNOW
IF YOU NEED A PAINTER.

MY COUSIN'LL GIVE YOU
A GOOD DEAL.

- THANKS, MAN.
- ALL RIGHT.

- THANK YOU.
- YOU'RE WELCOME.

- HAVE A GOOD ONE.
- YOU TOO.

Tennyson: KYLE AND I GOT
THE OPPORTUNITY

TO BE ABLE TO BUILD A HOME

ON, UH, KYLE'S PARENTS',
UH, PROPERTY.

WE MOVED IN WITH MY MOM
TO SAVE IN RENT.

AND, UH, MY MOM WAS AMAZING
AT HELPING WITH OUR DAUGHTER.

SO IT WAS KEY TO HELP US

GET TO THE NEXT STAGE
IN LIFE, I GUESS.

- HEY.
- YES.

THOUGHT YOU COULD USE THIS.

- THANK YOU.
- THANK YOU.

OH.
SHE'S JUST PERFECT, ISN'T SHE?

MM-HMM.

SO YOU TWO DECIDED

YET WHAT YOU'RE DOING
FOR MOTHER'S DAY?

MY FOLKS OFFERED UP

THEIR VACATION HOME
FOR THE WEEKEND.

THAT'S PERFECT.
IT'LL DO YOU GOOD TO GET AWAY.

- YEAH.
- ENJOY SOME TIME ALONE.

I'LL HAVE THIS LITTLE
ANGEL ALL TO MYSELF.

[ GIGGLES ]
ARE YOU SURE THOUGH, MOM?

I'VE NEVER REALLY BEEN
AWAY FROM HER YET.

IT'LL BE FINE.
JUST GO.

NICK SAID HE WOULD COVER
AT THE GYM FOR US.

REALLY?
I MEAN, OKAY,

AS LONG AS WE CAN BE BACK
FOR THE ACTUAL DAY.

WORKS FOR ME.

WORKS FOR ME, TOO.

THANK YOU.
LOVE YOU.

I LOVE YOU TOO, SWEETIE.

MOTHER'S DAY WEEKEND,
WE WENT OVER EAST,

UH, THE MOUNTAINS
TO KYLE'S PARENTS' HOME

ON THE COLUMBIA RIVER.

UH, SO WE SPENT
OUR WEEKEND THERE,

JUST HANGING OUT AND RELAXING.

I'M SO GLAD WE DID THIS.

MM.

ME TOO.

JUST THINK, PRETTY SOON,

WE'LL BE SITTING OUT
ON OUR BRAND-NEW DECK

IN OUR VERY OWN BACKYARD.

WE CAN HAVE DINNER
OUT THERE EVERY NIGHT.

THAT'S RIGHT.
YOU'LL DO THE GROWING.

I'LL DO THE EATING.

- OH, REALLY?
- YEAH.

- IS THAT HOW IT'S GONNA BE?
- THAT'S HOW IT'S GONNA BE.

- CHEERS TO THAT.
- YEAH, WHATEVER.

[ LAUGHS ]

BUT HONESTLY,
SOMETIMES,

I THINK WE HAVE A NEW HOME,

AMAZING HUSBAND,
BEAUTIFUL BABY GIRL.

I JUST FEEL REALLY,
REALLY LUCKY.

YOU DESERVE IT.

YOU DESERVE ALL OF IT.

[ HEAVY BREATHING ]

[ BEEP ]

[ SIGHS ]

THE TRUTH IS,

WOMEN SERVE ONLY ONE PURPOSE.

AND THAT'S TO DESTROY YOU

BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT
A WOMAN WANTS TO DO

SO SHE CAN FEEL
EQUAL TO A MAN.

[ SPITS ]

WOMEN ARE HORRIBLE,

MISERABLE...

EVIL, EVIL CREATURES.

AND THEY MUST BE STOPPED.

Narrator:
THE FOLLOWING SUNDAY,

KYLE AND TENNYSON
RETURN HOME TO NORTH BEND,

RESTED AND READY
TO ENJOY TIME WITH FAMILY.

WE CAME BACK TO NORTH BEND.

AND, YOU KNOW, WE WERE PLANNING
A NICE DINNER

AND TO CELEBRATE HER
FIRST MOTHER'S DAY,

A PRETTY SPECIAL EVENT.

SO WE WERE BOTH EXCITED FOR IT.

- SHE'S GONNA LOVE THAT.
- [ CHUCKLES ] I THINK SO, TOO.

I'M HEADED TO THE GYM
FOR A QUICK WORKOUT.

- BE BACK LATER.
- OKAY.

AND DON'T FORGET,
RESERVATION IS FOR 7:00 TONIGHT.

OKAY.

OUR CROSSFIT GYM WAS
GOING TO REGIONALS.

SO MY BUDDY, HAD A - -
I TALKED WITH HIM.

WE WERE GONNA GO TO THE GYM
AND JUST DO ONE OF THE WORKOUTS.

HAVE A GOOD WORKOUT.

MY HOUSE ALWAYS FELT
LIKE A SAFE,

YOU KNOW, A SAFE ENVIRONMENT
WHERE YOU JUST NEVER - -

YOU NEVER THINK ANYTHING
BAD'S GONNA HAPPEN.

AND SO I LEFT.

[ HEAVY BREATHING ]

NANA MUST HAVE
TIRED YOU OUT.

[ CLATTER ON GROUND ]

I NOTICED SOMEBODY
COMING UP OUR STEPS.

HE JUST KEPT WALKING
TOWARDS THE DOOR.

♪

I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK.
I WAS PETRIFIED.

Narrator: AT HOME IN NORTH BEND,
WASHINGTON,

26-YEAR-OLD TENNYSON JACOBSON

HAS JUST RECEIVED
AN UNEXPECTED VISITOR.

♪

MY HUSBAND WASN'T THERE,

SO I KNEW I DIDN'T
HAVE HIM TO PROTECT ME.

AND MY MOM WAS IN ANOTHER ROOM,
SO I JUST FELT ALONE.

[ WHIRRING ]
Tennyson: HELP!

[ PANTING ]

[ GASPING ]
[ BABY CRYING ]

HELP! SOMEONE - -
[ SCREAMING ]

[ MUFFLED SCREAMING ]

I DIDN'T KNOW IF HE WAS
GONNA TAKE ME

OR IF HE WAS GONNA
TAKE MY DAUGHTER

OR WHAT HE WAS GONNA DO.

[ GASPING, SOBBING ]

I DON'T WANNA HURT YOU.

I JUST WANT YOUR MONEY.

[ GASPING ]
[ BABY CRYING ]

[ SCREAMS ]

[ CRYING CONTINUES ]

HERE. HERE...

HE JUST STARED AT ME,

AND IT WAS THIS EVIL,
POSSESSED LOOK OF, "I HATE YOU."

[ GASPING, SOBBING ]

HE SMACKED HER SO HARD THAT HIS
BASEBALL CAP WENT FLYING.

[ BABY CRYING ]

[ GASPING ]

[ CRYING CONTINUES ]

[ TURNS DRYER OFF ]

[ BABY CRYING, LOUD THUMP ]

HELP!

HEY! TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED?

[ SOBBING, SHOUTING ]

[ CONTINUES SOBBING ]
[ DIALING ]

HERE!

LOCK THE DOOR!

HURRY, MOM!
I WAS FREAKING OUT.

I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

I THINK MY INITIAL RESPONSE
WAS JUST TO RUN TO MY DAUGHTER.

SO I RAN TO HER
AND PICKED HER UP

AND THEN CALLED 911
AS SOON AS I COULD.

Narrator:
MEANWHILE, ACROSS TOWN,

TENNYSON'S HUSBAND, KYLE,
HAS JUST ARRIVED AT THE GYM.

OUR GYM WAS PROBABLY 12
OR 15 MINUTES FROM THE HOUSE.

SO ANY BIG PLANS
FOR MOTHER'S DAY?

UH, BREAKFAST IN BED.
KIDS GAVE HER CARDS.

I GAVE HER
A GIFT CERTIFICATE

TO THE SALON SHE LIKES.

YOU? OH, MAN.

GONNA CHECK OUT
THAT NEW ITALIAN PLACE.

- YOU EVER BEEN?
- NAH.

YOU KNOW HOW IT IS.

WE'D JUST STARTED WARMIN' UP

WHEN I GOT THE CALL
FROM TENNYSON.

HEY. GIVE ME A SECOND.
[ PHONE VIBRATING ]

HEY. HEY. HEY.

SLOW DOWN A SECOND.
WHAT - -

WHAT?

AND SHE WAS OBVIOUSLY
STILL VERY UPSET.

AND, YOU KNOW, IT GOT ME
KINDA FREAKED OUT

ABOUT HER SAFETY
AND OUR SAFETY,

ABOUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING
AND WHAT WOULD HAPPEN AND...

HOLD ON.

OKAY. OKAY.

OKAY.

YEAH, I'LL BE RIGHT HOME.

IT'S MY WIFE. SHE'S - -
SHE'S BEEN ATTACKED.

- WHAT? SHE GOT ATTACKED?
- I GOT - - I GOTTA GO.

DUDE, DO YOU NEED HELP, MAN?
IS SHE OKAY?

IT'S KINDA CLICHé TO THINK,
YOU KNOW,

THIS'LL NEVER HAPPEN TO ME.

BUT, I MEAN,
I TRULY DID BELIEVE THAT.

Narrator: BACK AT THE HOUSE,

KING COUNTY SHERIFF'S
DETECTIVES RESPOND TO THE SCENE

AND WASTE NO TIME
COLLECTING INFORMATION.

THIS WAS TENNYSON'S HOME
THAT SHE GREW UP IN.

AND I - - I THINK IT REALLY
TOOK HER BY SURPRISE.

THERE'S ALWAYS AN ELEMENT
OF TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT - -

WHAT WOULD MOTIVATE
THIS TYPE OF CRIME.

MA'AM, WHAT COLOR WAS HIS HAIR?

IT WAS BLACK...

WITH SOME GRAY.

AND WHAT ABOUT HIS EYES?

THEY WERE DARK.

SO, BROWN?

I DIDN'T FEEL SAFE IN MY HOUSE,
AND I JUST KEPT SAYING

THAT OVER AND OVER AGAIN,
HOW I DIDN'T FEEL SAFE.

AND THE COPS WERE TRYING
TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER.

BUT I WAS SO AFRAID
HE WAS GONNA COME BACK.

SO AS FAR AS YOU KNOW, THE ONLY
THING HE TOOK WAS THE MONEY?

YEAH. THAT'S WHAT HE SAID,
"I JUST WANT YOUR MONEY."

WHERE THEY WERE LIVING
AT TENNYSON'S PARENTS' PLACE,

THERE WAS A HOMELESS ENCAMPMENT

NOT TOO FAR AWAY,
UM, ALONG THE RIVER.

IT REALLY DID APPEAR TO BE,

YOU KNOW, A CRIME
OF OPPORTUNITY.

EXCUSE ME, MRS. JACOBSON.

DO YOU RECOGNIZE THIS HAT?

UH-HUH. THAT'S HIS.

HE LEFT BEHIND A BASEBALL CAP,

WHICH IS A GEM
BECAUSE, YOU KNOW,

THE CHANCES OF GETTING
DNA OFF THAT ARE GREAT.

MAYBE K-9 CAN DO
SOMETHIN' ABOUT THIS.

MORE COPS STARTED SHOWING UP.

UH, AND, EVENTUALLY,

THEY HAD A COP
THAT HAD A CANINE,

A K-9 COP, UH,
TO SNIFF THE AREA.

[ DOG BARKING ]

HEY.
YOU FIND ANYTHING YET?

NOT YET.

[ SIGHS ]

THIS CREEP COULD BE ANYWHERE.

[ HEAVY BREATHING ]

[ BRANCH SNAPS ]

[ DOG BARKING IN DISTANCE ]

[ EXHALE ]

WE BROUGHT OUT, UH,
THE K-9 UNIT.

BUT THEY WEREN'T EVER ABLE
TO GET A VERY STRONG SCENT.

WE WOULD EXPECT
THAT THE INTRUDER

HAD GOTTEN INTO A CAR AND LEFT.

WHEN KYLE CAME HOME,
IT WAS JUST, LIKE,

THAT UNDER,
LIKE, SUBCONSCIOUS, LIKE,

"I LOVE YOU SO MUCH,"

JUST SEEING HIS LOOK
IN HIS EYES, JUST, LIKE,

"I CAN'T BELIEVE IT HAPPENED."

I AM SO SORRY.

I AM SO, SO SORRY.

[ CRYING ]

[ EXHALES ]

WHAT IS IT?

[ BREATHES UNEVENLY ]

I CAN STILL SMELL HIM
ON ME, KYLE.

POLICE JUST PRESUME.

THEY SAID, WELL,
SINCE HE CAME AND TOOK CASH

AND DIDN'T,
YOU KNOW, LIKE,

TRY TO REALLY HURT
ANYBODY SERIOUSLY WHILE

HE WAS THERE THE FIRST TIME,

IT WAS PROBABLY JUST
FOR DRUG MONEY.

MADE TOTAL SENSE TO ME.

OKAY. MR. AND MRS. JACOBSON,
WE'RE JUST ABOUT DONE HERE.

WE'LL BE IN TOUCH.

IF ANYTHING COMES UP
AT ALL, PLEASE CALL MY CELL.

WHAT IF HE COMES BACK?

[ SIGHS ] MRS. JACOBSON,
IN ALL MY YEARS,

I'VE NEVER KNOWN
SOMEONE TO COME BACK.

THEY WERE TRYING TO MAKE ME
FEEL BETTER ABOUT IT.

BUT THEY COULDN'T FIND
ANY TRACE OF WHERE HE WENT.

I THINK IT JUST ALL WASN'T
ADDING UP TO ME.

- THANK YOU.
- THANK YOU.

I DIDN'T FEEL GOOD ABOUT IT.

IT'S OKAY.

[ BREATHES UNEVENLY ]

I CAN STILL SMELL HIM
ON ME, KYLE.

Narrator: HOURS AFTER A HORRIFIC
HOME INVASION,

26-YEAR-OLD TENNYSON JACOBSON
AND HER HUSBAND, KYLE,

ARE DOING THE BEST THEY CAN
TO PUT THE INCIDENT BEHIND THEM.

Tennyson: IT WAS MY FIRST
MOTHER'S DAY,

AND WE HAD DINNER PLANS.

SO I SHOWERED AND TRIED TO, UH,

GO INTO DINNER
FOR MOTHER'S DAY,

UM, AS BEST I COULD.

SO REGIONALS IS COMING UP.
THAT'LL BE GOOD.

YEAH.

YEAH, IT SEEMS LIKE
EVERY CROSSFIT TEAM

IN THE AREA SIGNED UP FOR IT.

I WAS THINKING WE COULD MAKE

SOME NEW T-SHIRTS
WITH OUR LOGO ON IT.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

[ ECHOING ] HELP ME!

[ SCREAMING ] HELP!

[ SCREAMING CONTINUES ]

TENNY? TENNY?

TENNY?

[ GASPING ]

[ SCREAMS, GASPING ]

HEY, TENNY.

IT'S ALWAYS
A LITTLE BIT STRANGE

WHEN IT HAPPENS TO ONE PERSON,
NOT THE OTHER.

SO YOU'RE TRYING TO, YOU KNOW,

EMPATHIZE AND UNDERSTAND
WHAT THEY'RE GOIN' THROUGH.

BUT AS MUCH AS YOU CAN DO THAT,

YOU'LL NEVER REALLY KNOW
WHAT IT WAS LIKE.

MM-HMM.

HEY.

COME HERE.
COME HERE.

GIVE ME YOUR HAND.
I'M - - I'M SORRY.

[ CRYING ]

IT JUST WASN'T
A COMFORTABLE ATMOSPHERE

BECAUSE I COULD TELL
HOW CONCERNED TENNY WAS.

[ SIGHS ]

SO MUCH FOR A CELEBRATION.

Tennyson: I MEAN, YOU'RE IN
A LITTLE BIT OF SHOCK,

AND THEN YOU'RE
JUST FREAKING OUT

BECAUSE SOMEBODY
JUST CAME IN YOUR HOME

WHERE YOU ARE SAFE.

YOU SHOULD FEEL SAFE.

AND THEY TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THAT.

YOU HEARD WHAT THAT
DETECTIVE SAID, RIGHT?

INTRUDERS LIKE THAT
DO NOT COME BACK.

[ SNIFFLES ]

EVERYTHING
IS GOING TO BE OKAY.

I'M HERE NOW.

I'M NOT GONNA LET ANYTHING
BAD HAPPEN TO YOU.

ALL RIGHT?

PROMISE?

MISS, IS EVERYTHING
ALL RIGHT WITH YOUR FOOD?

SHE'S FINE.

UH, MY WIFE JUST
ISN'T THAT HUNGRY.

OH, OKAY.
UH, EXCUSE ME?

COULD YOU POINT ME
IN THE DIRECTION

OF THE RESTROOM, PLEASE?

IT'S RIGHT INSIDE TO THE LEFT.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

WHY WOULD I TAKE A BAT
TO TAKE THE DOGS OUT

TO GO TO THE BATHROOM?

FRIENDS YEARS AGO

HAD SAID A WASP SPRAY

FLED THE SCENE.

BUT HE - - HE MADE THAT CHOICE
FOR WHATEVER REASON.

HE DOES CROSSFIT.

BUT HE'S HAVING A HARD TIME.

- TENNY, HELP!

ARRIVE ON THE SCENE,

THEY ASSURE THE JACOBSONS
THIS INTRUDER

WON'T BOTHER THEM AGAIN.

Green: BY THE TIME
FIRST RESPONDERS ARRIVED,

THE SUSPECT, HE HAD A WEAK PULSE

BUT, UH, WAS LATER
DECLARED DEAD AT THE SCENE.

HE WAS STABBED 10 TIMES.

AND THERE WERE A NUMBER
OF PUNCTURE WOUNDS TO HIS BACK

AND THEN TO HIS ABDOMEN AREA.

MR. AND MRS. JACOBSON,

I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN
THROUGH A LOT TONIGHT.

BUT I'M GONNA NEED TO GET
STATEMENTS FROM EACH OF YOU.

[ CRYING ]

CAN MY WIFE AT LEAST
TAKE A SHOWER FIRST?

WE'RE GONNA NEED TO TAKE
SOME PHOTOS OF HER FOR EVIDENCE.

WHY DID HE COME BACK?

WHY?

NOBODY KNOWS WHAT
THIS GUY HAD PLANNED.

ONCE HIS BODY
WAS TURNED OVER

TO THE MEDICAL
EXAMINER'S OFFICE,

THEY FINGERPRINTED HIM.

AND IT WAS THROUGH
HIS FINGERPRINTS

THAT THEY WERE
ABLE TO IDENTIFY HIM.

HE HAD A RECENT
CONVICTION FOR THEFT.

AND SO HE WAS
SUBSEQUENTLY IDENTIFIED

AS KENNETH BOONSTRA.

HE WAS LIVING ON 7 ACRES
OFF OF MOON VALLEY ROAD.

HE HAD RECENTLY GONE
THROUGH A DIVORCE.

JESUS.

HE HAD ACTUALLY
BECOME A HERMIT.

HOW CAN ANYBODY LIVE LIKE THIS?
HE HARDLY WENT OUT.

HE WAS SO VERBALLY ABUSIVE

THAT NOBODY REALLY HAD
MUCH CONTACT WITH HIM.

[ PHONE VIBRATES ]

YOU GOTTA SEE THIS.

ONE OF THE OFFICERS
SENT ME A LINK.

WOMEN DO NOT DESERVE
SECOND CHANCES.

LOOK AROUND AT WOMEN AND GIRLS,

AND WHAT ARE THEY?

THEY'RE MISERABLE,
HORRIBLE CREATURES.

THEY HAVE ACCEPTED THE LIES

THAT THE WORLD HAS TOLD THEM.

THERE WERE A NUMBER
OF YouTube VIDEOS

THAT HE HAD POSTED,
JUST KIND OF,

LIKE, THESE WEIRD
RELIGIOUS RANTS

AND RANTS ABOUT WOMEN.

GIRLS AND WOMEN, WRETCHED.

THEY'RE ACTUALLY, YOU KNOW,

THEIR CREATED PURPOSE
IS AWESOME AND WONDERFUL.

YOU KNOW, BUT THEY'VE
ALL REJECTED IT AND - -

AND BECOME SATAN'S MINIONS,

SATAN'S TOOLS,
TOOLS OF THE DEVIL.

HE'S GOT OVER 30
OF THESE POSTED.

THEY'VE GIVEN UP
THEIR NATURAL FUNCTION.

LIKE I SAID, THIS,
YOU KNOW, I'VE HAD - -

I WAS MARRIED ONCE.

AND AFTER THAT EXPERIENCE,
UH, YOU KNOW,

A WOMAN'S HEART
IS FILLED WITH NOTHIN'

BUT SHARP PIECES OF TIN,

BROKEN GLASS,

RUSTY NAILS,
CRUSHED ROCK.

IT'S JUST THEIR HEARTS,

YOU KNOW, YOU - -
YOU COME ACROSS THESE GIRLS.

AND THEY'RE, YOU KNOW,
SO PRETTY.

THEY ARE SO - -
THEY'RE NOT BEAUTIFUL.

BUT THEY ARE SO PRETTY.

BUT THEIR HEARTS
ARE JUST HORRID - -

HORRIDLY BAD,
BAD CREATURES.

ENOUGH.
SEND ME THE LINK,

AND I'LL BE SURE TO INCLUDE
THAT IN THE REPORT.

ONE OF HIS BROTHERS
HAD SAID, YOU KNOW,

HE WAS GOING THROUGH
SOME KIND OF MENTAL BREAKDOWN

FOLLOWING
A REALLY BITTER DIVORCE.

AND WHETHER THAT SPILLED
OVER INTO, YOU KNOW,

A BITTERNESS OR A HATRED
TOWARDS ALL WOMEN,

I MEAN, WOULDN'T BE
THE FIRST NUT JOB WHO, YOU KNOW,

KIND OF TRANSFERRED
THAT KIND OF HATRED ONTO WOMEN.

I MEAN, UNFORTUNATELY,
IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.

SO WHY ME?
WHY US?

WE CAN'T ANSWER THAT.

BUT I CAN TELL YOU THAT
OUR INVESTIGATION HAS CONCLUDED

THAT YOU ACTED
IN COMPLETE SELF-DEFENSE.

Bartlett: WHEN HE CAME BACK
THE SECOND TIME,

HE HAD A CAMERA
THAT HAD A TRIPOD ON IT.

AND THEN WE ALSO
FOUND DUCT TAPE.

THOSE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS
THAT WE WOULD SEE IN TOOLS

THAT YOU WOULD USE FOR MORE
THAN A HOME INVASION ROBBERY.

YOU KNOW,
IS THE POSSIBILITY THERE

THAT HE CAME BACK
TO SEXUALLY ASSAULT HER,

TO ABDUCT HER?

I MEAN, WE'LL NEVER KNOW THAT.

NO CHARGES WILL BE FILED
AGAINST YOU IN THIS CASE.

[ EXHALES ]

[ EXHALES ]

I'M SORRY
THAT THIS HAPPENED.

THANK YOU.

I HAD NEVER SEEN HIM IN MY LIFE.

HE WENT THROUGH
A BITTER DIVORCE YEARS BEFORE.

AND SHE WAS BLONDE.

AND, UH, UM,
YOU KNOW WHAT,

MAYBE I SOMEWHAT RESEMBLED HER.

AND SO THE THOUGHT
WAS THAT HE SAW ME AS THIS,

YOU KNOW, YOUNG MOM AND, UM,

AND THE WOMAN THAT HE HATES.

Bartlett: YOU KNOW, WE ALL HAVE
A FIGHT OR FLIGHT.

WE'RE EITHER GONNA FIGHT,

WE'RE GONNA FLEE,
OR WE'RE GONNA FREEZE.

SO THE FACT THAT TENNYSON
JUMPED INTO ACTION,

I ALWAYS REFER TO BOTH HER
AND KYLE AS WARRIORS

BECAUSE THEY BOTH
JUMPED INTO ACTION.

MRS. JACOBSON, REMEMBER,

YOU DID WHAT YOU HAD TO DO
TO PROTECT YOUR FAMILY.

NEVER FORGET THAT.

[ DOOR LOCKS ]

[ EXHALES, SIGHS ]

THE 2 MONTHS AFTER
THAT WERE JUST,

I MEAN, WERE JUST
A NIGHTMARE, YOU KNOW,

AND NOT SLEEPING
AND BEIN' SCARED.

[ EXHALES ]
WE'RE THROUGH.

IT REALLY DID MESS US UP
PRETTY BAD FOR A WHILE.

BUT WE'VE COME A HECK
OF A LONG WAY.

AND IT'S SOMETHIN' MY WIFE
AND I WENT THROUGH.

I FEEL LIKE WE HAVE KINDA LOOKED
AT IT A DIFFERENT WAY,

YOU KNOW, PROUD OF EACH OTHER
AND FEEL LIKE WE, YOU KNOW,

WORKED AS A TEAM
TO OVERCOME EVIL.

IT'S REALLY WEIRD THINKING
THAT YOU'VE KILLED SOMEBODY.

I REMEMBER WALKING DOWN
THE STREET AND, YOU KNOW,

THINKING OF THE PEOPLE
WALKING NEXT TO ME

AND WHAT THEY'D THINK OF ME
IF THEY KNEW.

BUT I COULD SEE
HOW EVIL HE WAS.

AND THERE'S NOT ONCE
I'VE QUESTIONED WHAT I DID.

I JUST FEEL LIKE WE WERE
REALLY LOOKED OUT - -

OUT FOR THAT NIGHT BECAUSE
HE COULD'VE FOUND MY DAUGHTER.

HE COULD'VE FOUND US
IN OUR ROOM,

AND IT WOULD'VE BEEN
A TOTALLY DIFFERENT STORY.
