1. The— there were events that began at...
Copy !req

would— Floyd and I had bonded.
Copy !req
4. He threw a cornhole celebration.
Copy !req
5. You know where the Jamba Juice

Copy !req
6. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's...
It's right near the station.
Copy !req
7. That's right near my office.
Copy !req
8. It's right behind the Jamba Juice,
Purina Corporate.
Copy !req

Copy !req
10. You know, that—
That's my Jamba Juice, too. Central.
Copy !req
11. - Okay. Well, wow, me too.
- I'm in there all the time.
Copy !req
12. Like, the—
The Go Getter is my energy lift, you know?
Copy !req
13. It used to be coffee, but I was drinking,
Copy !req
14. like, way, you know— it was like,
"Hang on here, what?"
Copy !req
15. You know?
Copy !req
16. Yeah.
Copy !req
17. Nice. Yeah, Go Getter.
It's me too. Wow. Okay.
Copy !req
18. - Is that right?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
19. It's the healthiest one,
more or less. Don't you think?
Copy !req
20. Floyd gets the PB Chocolate Love.
Copy !req
21. - PB Chocolate Love.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
22. - That's nice.
- I mean, it's pretty much a milkshake.
Copy !req
23. What about the girls?
What do they like to do?
Copy !req
24. Oh, well, let's see.
Lately, they're into crafting.
Copy !req
25. - Dance.
- Dance. You guys have a dance school?
Copy !req
26. No, we just— we just
started looking, actually.
Copy !req
27. Dance with Miss Ashley
Dance Academy on Campbell.
Copy !req
28. - Yeah, that's a good one, huh?
- Good? No, it's great.
Copy !req
29. We signed Richard up there
for the— He, you know,
Copy !req
30. he has some things.
Copy !req
31. He doesn't like sports...
Copy !req
32. - Oh, okay.
- ... So we've had to
Copy !req
33. - try some other things.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
34. Hey, hey! Hey, Richard!
Copy !req
35. Show Eimy some of your dance moves.
Copy !req
36. I don't have any dance moves.
Copy !req
37. Yeah, that's right.
Okay, right answer. Awesome.
Copy !req
38. Does he— he hasn't learned anything yet?
Copy !req
39. - Or he's just being bad, or—
- No, that's what I'm saying.
Copy !req
40. We bought, like, a three-month dance pack,
and then he didn't even go.
Copy !req
41. Like, not even once.
Copy !req
42. But I didn't want it to be a thing
where he felt like he had disappointed us
Copy !req
43. because we paid all that money, so I went.
Copy !req
44. I'm a... I sign.
Copy !req
45. I do the big stage
at the 314 Fest every summer.
Copy !req
46. The big, like, R&B, hip-hop stage.
Copy !req
47. And, you know, they just want me
to sign the lyrics,
Copy !req
48. but I— I wanted to give the deaf audience,
Copy !req
49. like, a richer experience.
Copy !req
50. So I wanted to link the lyrics
to, like, a rhythm and groove.
Copy !req
51. And I got, you know, really into it.
Copy !req
52. - Wow.
- And then I renewed the pack.
Copy !req
53. - For you?
- Fuck yeah.
Copy !req
54. Wow.
Copy !req
55. So, you do the weather?
Copy !req
56. Yeah, I do. Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
57. Clark Forrest. My favorite, actually.
Copy !req
58. Total favorite.
Copy !req
59. Thank you so much.
Copy !req
60. - That's—
- Total favorite local weather.
Copy !req
61. Channel ten.
Copy !req
62. That's very...
Copy !req
63. I...
Copy !req
64. You know, I do— It's not the only...
Copy !req
65. I have a... I have a deep-sea
demolition company
Copy !req
66. off the coast of Canada...
Copy !req
67. - Wow. Wow.
- ... That I founded.
Copy !req
68. And I... And I still...
Copy !req
69. I go...
Copy !req
70. I oversee and I engineer,
the— the— the big demo.
Copy !req
71. So, yeah, I... I do that.
Copy !req
72. - I...
- What?
Copy !req
73. I'm the...
Copy !req
74. They call me...
Copy !req
75. The Bang Master, actually.
Copy !req
76. Or Big Bang, sometimes.
Copy !req
77. So, anyway, I'm up there. I'm doing that.
Copy !req
78. I'm overseeing, you know,
really the whole, you know,
Copy !req
79. fucking company. Everything dangerous.
Copy !req
80. So I, you know, I do that in addition
to the weather.
Copy !req
81. You know, I gotta mix it up a little bit.
Copy !req
82. - Wow.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
83. Okay.
Copy !req
84. Bang Master.
Copy !req
85. The Big Bang.

Copy !req
89. Clap your hands. Good job!
Copy !req
90. Jump. Jump. Two, three. To the right.
Copy !req
91. To the left. Now we go around the world.
Oh, here we go!
Copy !req
92. Come on.
Copy !req
93. Beginner hip-hop, five minutes.
Copy !req
94. What class are you in?
Copy !req
95. - Intermediate hip-hop.
- All right.
Copy !req
96. Yeah, it's a good workout.
You know, I'm trying to lose a few.
Copy !req
97. Well, it's good for the heart rate.
It's good for my curve, too.
Copy !req
98. - For your what?
- Peyronie's.
Copy !req
99. - Oh, yeah.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
100. Usually caused by trauma. Blunt trauma.
Copy !req
101. Mine was.
Copy !req
102. What— what ha— what happened?
Do you mind me asking?
Copy !req
103. No, I'll tell you.
Copy !req
104. I went on this job interview in Chicago.
Copy !req
105. I had an interview
to maybe start equity trading.
Copy !req
106. Carol's idea. It was a good idea.
Copy !req
107. You look great.
Copy !req
108. I was selling printer toner,
which nobody was really buying anymore.
Copy !req
109. Okay.
Copy !req
110. The Chicago job would have been
pretty good money,
Copy !req
111. like a big deal for the family.
Copy !req
112. So, I headed downtown for this thing.
Copy !req
113. She made me get there really early.
Copy !req
114. So I'd be early.
Copy !req
115. And so, I'm there
crossing LaSalle, busy street,
Copy !req
116. sun's coming up, and I witnessed this thing.
Copy !req
117. This kid is in the middle of, like,
Copy !req
118. - five lanes, six lanes. I don't know.
- Hey, hey, hey! Yeah!
Copy !req
119. Walking back and forth.
He has mental health issues.
Copy !req
120. And there he is.
Copy !req
121. Like, that's where he wants
to be, like, in that danger.
Copy !req
122. Whiz, man. Like, cars just, like,
flying right next to him. Whiz!
Copy !req
123. Like, he's almost getting killed,
Copy !req
124. but he keeps smiling
and, like, spinning around,
Copy !req
125. almost dying the whole time.
Copy !req
126. - You— So, what, like...
- So, I... I go get him.
Copy !req
127. And I get him.
And I get him into a firm embrace.
Copy !req
128. And then we, like,
Frogger back over to safety.
Copy !req
129. We made it. We made it.
Copy !req
130. And then what happened?
Did you get hit in the penis by a car?
Copy !req
131. No, no. I got on the news.
Copy !req
132. I'm here with Floyd Smernitch,
who just hours ago
Copy !req
133. risked his life to save a troubled young man
Copy !req
134. from real danger on LaSalle this morning.
Floyd, do you consider yourself a hero?
Copy !req
135. You— I... No, I don't think that's—
I don't think that's important.
Copy !req
136. I think— I think what's important...
Copy !req
137. So, I bolt across this busy downtown street
Copy !req
138. 'cause I'm late,
and Carol really wants to get this job.
Copy !req
139. Yeah. But tell me what happened with the—
Copy !req
140. Okay, beginner hip-hop.
Copy !req
141. - That happened later.
- Yeah?
Copy !req
142. Yeah. Hey! Hey, first day?
Copy !req
143. - Yeah.
- Yeah. Are you excited?
Copy !req
144. All right, cool.
Well, I want you to have a good time
Copy !req
145. and, you know, dance your best.
Copy !req
146. But remember, you don't have to dance better
Copy !req
147. - than anybody else...
- That's right.
Copy !req
148. Because it's not a sport.
It's a form of expression.
Copy !req
149. And here we go! And feel it.
Copy !req
150. Yes! Looking great!
Copy !req
151. - All right!
- Hey, Clark, can I get a jump?
Copy !req
152. - Yes.
- A jump?
Copy !req
153. All right. Looking good!
Copy !req
154. Yeah, sorry, man.
Copy !req
155. Yeah, this car is 14 years young,
but I guess that means she's old.
Copy !req
156. - Hey, sweetheart.
- Hey.
Copy !req
157. Yeah, it's dead. Way.
So, I'm gonna have to get it towed.
Copy !req
158. I gotta wait till my next paycheck, I guess.
Copy !req
159. - Okay.
- I'm just gonna go and tell Miss Ashley
Copy !req
160. that we're gonna abandon
the car here, for a little bit.
Copy !req
161. Okay.
Copy !req
162. Tried to get her going again with my jumpers.
Copy !req
163. You could probably just touch it,
with your hand.
Copy !req
164. It would probably just start right up.
Copy !req
165. She's cool with it!
Copy !req
166. Okay.
Copy !req
167. - She's cool with it.
- Okay.
Copy !req
168. - Later, man!
- Later, man.
Copy !req
169. Oh, hey. Thank you.
Copy !req
170. One-car household.
Copy !req
171. I mean, even if I wasn't taking
the R&B dance class,
Copy !req
172. we still wouldn't have enough
for another good car,
Copy !req
173. just so you know.
Copy !req
174. I don't want you to blame it
on the R&B dance lessons.
Copy !req
175. Okay.
Copy !req
176. - It's weird.
- What?
Copy !req
177. Taking the bus.
Copy !req
178. You're not taking the bus.
I'm taking the bus.
Copy !req
179. You're taking the one car
Copy !req
180. because I work on the street,
the bus goes down,
Copy !req
181. and you work in weird, faraway places.
Copy !req
182. I don't even know why you're
still sitting here at the bus stop.
Copy !req
183. You have to take Richard to school.
Copy !req
184. I wanted to say that it's weird
that you're taking the bus
Copy !req
185. while I'm taking the car.
Copy !req
186. I wanted to say that before I got in the car.
Copy !req
187. - Okay, thank you.
- Okay.
Copy !req
188. - I love you.
- I love you too.
Copy !req
189. Okay.
Copy !req
190. - I love you.
- What?
Copy !req
191. I love you.
Copy !req
192. I love you.
Copy !req
193. Okay, I can't hear—
I can't hear you over our one car.
Copy !req
194. What are you saying?
Copy !req
195. - I love you.
- I love you too.
Copy !req
196. - Okay, bye, see ya.
- See ya.
Copy !req
197. Fuck.
Copy !req
198. Come on, come on.
Copy !req
199. Oh, nice. Okay.
Copy !req
200. - All right, see you.
- Bye.
Copy !req
201. Okay.
Copy !req
202. Hi.
Copy !req

Copy !req
205. Same. Usually take a midday break,
get the energy up.
Copy !req
206. I hear ya.
Copy !req
207. - What is "bunting"?
- For the batter?
Copy !req
208. The— It says "bunting"
in this little book that they gave me,
Copy !req
209. but it's like I should already
know what bunting is.
Copy !req
210. - Okay.
- I don't know what it is.
Copy !req
211. - Yeah, it's—
- Bunting.
Copy !req
212. Yeah... I'm gonna explain it to you.
Copy !req
213. Whenever I ask Floyd
anything about ump stuff,
Copy !req
214. he's like— he acts
like I'm not even talking.
Copy !req
215. Have you— have you always been
in love with umpiring?
Copy !req
216. I've never been in love with umpiring,
even now when I'm doing it.
Copy !req
217. But it's 85 a game,
and it's right behind the house, so...
Copy !req
218. You're blowing up.
Copy !req
219. It's a demo call. That's for demolition.
Copy !req
220. Sorry. The— the guys, they're...
They got a big job today.
Copy !req
221. They're... They get nervous
and kind of puss out.
Copy !req
222. And they got to call someone who's,
Copy !req
223. you know, done it a bunch of times, you know?
Copy !req
224. They pussy out.
Copy !req
225. - What's that?
- They pussy out and they call you?
Copy !req
226. So, I don't know anything about ump stuff.
Copy !req
227. Maybe I should go to like
a Cardinals game, yeah?
Copy !req
228. But that's pricey.
Copy !req
229. And I probably don't even
understand what's going on
Copy !req
230. in a Cardinals game.
Copy !req
231. You know, we get group tickets.
Copy !req
232. - Yeah?
- Yeah, at WTGK.
Copy !req
233. We get— we get 'em in block, and...
Copy !req
234. Maybe you could join one of those?
Copy !req
235. Yeah, I mean, that would—
I would like to join, yeah. Like, when?
Copy !req
236. There's a schedule of games.
Copy !req
237. That information is on here.
Copy !req
238. Like, look. Thursday?
Copy !req
239. Can you do it Thursday?
And then I could maybe join that block?
Copy !req
240. - Let me check my work schedule.
- Come on.
Copy !req
241. Don't pussy out.
Copy !req
242. - Why is he walking out to the pitcher?
- To talk to the pitcher.
Copy !req
243. Here you go.
Just pass that one down there.
Copy !req
244. - About what?

that doesn't have a clock.
Copy !req

334. That's usually how it,
like, goes down, you know?
Copy !req
335. Okay.

Copy !req
357. That's when you and Clark Forrest
began your relationship?
Copy !req
358. No, that's when I met Clark Forrest.
Copy !req
359. And he told me that he owned
and operated or founded, whatever,
Copy !req
360. a company that did
deep sea explosions in Canada.
Copy !req
361. - Clark Forrest told you this?
- Yeah, that's what I just said.
Copy !req
362. And this wasn't true?
Copy !req
363. I found out later. No, that was untrue.
Copy !req
364. - None of that was true?
- No.
Copy !req
365. But at the time, did you believe him?
Copy !req
366. I had no reason to think he was lying.
Can you speak up, please?
Copy !req
367. And what effect did this have on you
when you were told that
Copy !req
368. Mr. Forrest oversaw underwater explosions
and that sort of thing?
Copy !req
369. Yeah, I was interested and curious,
you know, about his explosion work. Yeah.
Copy !req
370. And what did you talk to Mr. Forrest about?
Copy !req
371. I talked about my son, and about work,
Copy !req
372. and, Jamba Juice, and...
Copy !req
373. And my husband, that's about all.
Copy !req
374. I mean, I didn't think
that the ordinary matters
Copy !req
375. of my life would be very intriguing,
really, to anybody.
Copy !req
376. They're samey as anyone else, so...
Copy !req
377. I don't really talk a lot,
so I didn't say very much.
Copy !req
378. So, is it fair to say that this relationship,
Copy !req
379. it was instigated by Clark Forrest?
Copy !req
380. Can you speak up?
Copy !req
381. He was trying to seduce you,
or in that manner?
Copy !req
382. - He was behaving in that manner?
- He was behaving in that manner, yes.
Copy !req
383. Explosions, I mean.
Copy !req
384. Yeah. Right? Come on.
Copy !req
385. And when did you see Mr. Forrest next?
Copy !req
386. - Jamba Juice.
- So, you were at the same Jamba Juice.
Copy !req
387. You bump into Mr. Forrest.
Copy !req
388. - Yeah.
- Who was there first?
Copy !req
389. I remember...
Copy !req
390. I saw Mr. Forrest at the counter
barstool situation, when I entered.
Copy !req
391. So, he was there.
Copy !req
392. - Then you came in.
- Yes.
Copy !req
393. - And we ordered the same thing.
- The same Jamba Juice.
Copy !req
394. Jamba Juice makes different combinations
of juices, yeah.
Copy !req
395. And Mr. Forrest and I ordered the same one,
Copy !req
396. which was the Go Getter.
Copy !req
397. You know, so we had
a little laugh about that.
Copy !req
398. You had a laugh.
Copy !req
399. Yeah.
Copy !req
400. So, cornhole, Jamba Juice,
another few encounters,
Copy !req
401. - and then a brief intimacy began.
- Yes, and then it ended.
Copy !req
402. Had you ever discussed leaving your husband?
Copy !req
403. - Discussed with Clark?
- Yes.
Copy !req
404. - Yes, many times. Many times.
- Discussed in what way?
Copy !req
405. Discussed in the way
where I said many times to him
Copy !req
406. that I had no interest in leaving my husband
Copy !req
407. and that I would never do that.
Copy !req
408. That's all.
Copy !req
409. Thank you.
Copy !req
410. Okay.
Copy !req
411. I have a warrant to take the mail
that you received this week into evidence.
Copy !req
412. - That's again?
- That again what?
Copy !req
413. - You're doing that again?
- We're doing that each week.
Copy !req
414. For a duration.
All will be returned to you.
Copy !req
415. Your bills and files are kept where?
Copy !req
416. - In the hutch.
- The hutch?
Copy !req
417. Yeah, we don't have an office-type
situation in this house, so...
Copy !req
418. We maintain all the paperwork
in a hutch. Wow.
Copy !req
419. "Wow"?
Copy !req
420. Wow with all the questions
and stuff and shit, okay?
Copy !req
421. I'm sorry. Sorry.
Copy !req
422. - It's okay.
- You know, it's just been...
Copy !req
423. A lot.
Copy !req
424. Of course.
Copy !req
425. May I see the hutch?
Copy !req
426. Sure.
Copy !req
427. This contains tax matters?
Copy !req
428. Of your family's? This box?
Copy !req
429. That's Floyd's stuff.
Copy !req
430. I'd like to take this
for assessment too, ma'am.
Copy !req
431. So, she makes your dreams
come true, Carol Smernitch.
Copy !req
432. She makes your dreams come true, Clark.
And then she tells you,
Copy !req
433. after all that,
she's still in love with her husband.
Copy !req
434. Isn't that what happens to you next?
Copy !req
435. Nails, hair, hips, heels
Face done, lips real
Copy !req
436. Purse full, big bills
Yes, I'm a big deal...
Copy !req
437. It was really nice of Floyd
to get us all tickets.
Copy !req
438. Yeah, totally.
Copy !req

New phone, who this?
Copy !req
440. Do you guys want a water?
Copy !req

Copy !req
443. - No? Okay.
- Thank you. Thank you.

Copy !req
463. or that an overweight guy
would be great at fluttering.
Copy !req
464. He's athletic.
Copy !req
465. You know, I mean, I'm worried

Copy !req

she's still in love with her husband.
Copy !req
492. I have your texts.
Copy !req
493. And then...
Copy !req
494. Then you befriend him, the husband.
Copy !req
495. I mean, really befriend him.
Copy !req
496. No?
Copy !req
497. I get that timeline wrong?
Copy !req
498. Because that's when you two,
you and Floyd Smernitch, that's when—
Copy !req
499. That's when you got closer to him.
Copy !req
500. - That's right.
- Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
501. So you could gain his trust. Yeah.
Maybe deal with him.
Copy !req
502. Get rid of him. Get some kind of plan.
Copy !req
503. I don't know what kind.
Copy !req
504. But you get some kind of a plan.
Copy !req
505. - So, what is DTF St. Louis?
- It's a subscription the victim had.
Copy !req
506. It's a dating site, hookup site.
Copy !req
507. - We subpoenaed them.
- Hookup?
Copy !req
508. Yeah. It's like a sexual encounter site.
Copy !req
509. - So, what's in here?
- He was arranging meetings. With men.
Copy !req
510. Yeah, right Well, Daddy's little secret.
Copy !req
511. He was really into Indiana Jones.
Copy !req
512. - I don't know, it was his thing, personal.
- He met with this guy.
Copy !req
513. To do it?
Copy !req
514. I mean, "it" like in fucking?
Copy !req
515. - What? Do they meet to fuck?
- Yeah, it's like a sex site.
Copy !req
516. - Okay.
- Yep. For married people
Copy !req
517. to hook up and like...
Copy !req
518. Yeah, in private places.
Copy !req
519. - Around St. Louis?
- Around St. Louis, yeah.
Copy !req
520. He met this guy, but here's the thing.
Copy !req
521. Weeks later, he meets up with this guy.
Copy !req
522. - Tiger Tiger.
- Yes.
Copy !req
523. This is Tiger Tiger here?
Copy !req
524. Yes, it's the profile for this younger guy.
Copy !req
525. Tiger Tiger says,
"Meet me at the Kevin Kline pools."
Copy !req
526. Oh, wow. That's where he was killed.
Copy !req
527. - The morning of?
- 4:00 a.m.
Copy !req
528. The morning we discovered the body.
Copy !req
529. Okay, did you subpoena this profile,
Copy !req
530. - man, this young guy?
- Yes, but he's not a young guy.
Copy !req
531. He was just posing as a young guy.
Copy !req
532. It's Clark Forrest.
Copy !req
533. The weather guy?
Copy !req
534. Clark Forrest is Tiger Tiger.
Copy !req
535. - You doing okay?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
536. You wanna take a break
or something there, Tiger?
Copy !req
537. Wanna take five, Tiger?
Copy !req
538. Why do you keep calling me Tiger?
Copy !req
539. Because you're Tiger Tiger.
Copy !req
540. Yeah.
Copy !req
541. You created this profile.
Copy !req
542. DTF St. Louis,
Tiger Tiger, your IP address.
Copy !req
543. They have to tell us when they're subpoenaed.
Copy !req
544. Smernitch...
Copy !req
545. He liked to meet men on this site.
Copy !req
546. - You posed as a man.
- Floyd didn't like to meet men.
Copy !req
547. You don't know what you're talking about.
Copy !req
548. - This is a guy, right?
- Yes.
Copy !req
549. His name is Christopher Robert Spurce.
Lives in Twyla. Small business owner.
Copy !req
550. And he had a sex date with Floyd Smernitch?
Copy !req
551. - Yes.
- Get him in here.
Copy !req
552. Modern Love?
Copy !req
553. Yes.
Copy !req
554. So, you met this Rocksolid for breakfast?
Copy !req
555. Yeah. Ordinary breakfast.
Copy !req
556. Ordinary guy. Nice guy.
Copy !req
557. Did breakfast lead to any intimacy or sex?
Copy !req
558. Breakfast led to...
Copy !req
559. - A little intimacy play and...
- Little— A little what?
Copy !req
560. A little intimacy play.
Copy !req
561. What's that?
Copy !req
562. Well, it could be any number of things,
Copy !req
563. but in this case, it was just
making out in the parking lot.
Copy !req
564. - You kissed?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
565. Kissing of what sort?
Copy !req
566. Like the kind where I put my tongue
in his mouth, kissing.
Copy !req
567. Was there any additional...
Copy !req
568. Ass play.
Copy !req
569. Okay.
Copy !req
570. Who played with whose ass?
Copy !req
571. I touched his ass a little bit.
Copy !req
572. And that led to some brief grinding.
Copy !req
573. Hey, Forrest.
Copy !req
574. You wanted this guy gone.
He liked to meet men.
Copy !req
575. You introduced him to DTF St. Louis.
You're buddies now. He goes on this site.
Copy !req
576. He goes— he goes to meet Tiger Tiger.
Copy !req
577. But that's you, though. Gets dead instead.
Copy !req
578. Clark. You get the girl.
Copy !req
579. That's what happened. Yeah?
Copy !req
580. Clear as day.
Copy !req
581. What, you afraid to talk to me now?
Copy !req
582. - I'm not.
- Not what?
Copy !req
583. - Not Tiger Tiger?
- I'm not afraid.
Copy !req
584. - You're Tiger Tiger.
- I'm Tiger Tiger.
Copy !req
585. Fuck. But...
Copy !req
586. But what?
Copy !req
587. You'll find this app under DTF St. Louis.
Copy !req
588. And while I'm not going
to tell you what DTF stands for,
Copy !req
589. if you know, then you'll know
Copy !req
590. that this is targeted towards married couples
Copy !req
591. who still might want
to have a little secret fun
Copy !req
592. with a new face here in the St. Louis area,
Copy !req
593. no strings attached.
Copy !req
594. No strings attached.
Copy !req
595. All of the excitement,
none of the consequences.
Copy !req
596. September 14th,
Carol Love-Smernitch to you.
Copy !req
597. "I love Floyd so much, right?
He's so sweet,
Copy !req
598. wow, and he needs someone
to take care of him.
Copy !req
599. And that's me.
And that's what I want to do."
Copy !req
600. Okay, the next text on your phone,
you don't respond to her.
Copy !req
601. You text Floyd soon after, and your text is...
Copy !req
602. "Hey, man, we're having
a get-together Sunday.
Copy !req
603. Can you guys come?"
Floyd, "Cool, we're there."
Copy !req
604. Hey.
Copy !req
605. Hey. So, I— I— I saw this thing.
Copy !req
606. A segment while I was getting
ready for my broadcast.
Copy !req
607. Okay.
Copy !req
608. It was a report about an app.
Copy !req
609. Dating— dating app.
Copy !req
610. I mean, it's not really
a dating app, actually...
Copy !req
611. DTF St. Louis.
Copy !req
612. What's DTF?
Copy !req
613. "Down to fuck."
Copy !req
614. Down to fuck?
Copy !req
615. Someone responds to your profile,
you set a meeting, someplace quiet,
Copy !req
616. then you meet.
Copy !req
617. I got a hit. First one says "Modern Love."
Copy !req
618. - Hey, you got a hit, man!
- I got a hit.
Copy !req
619. - Nice one.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
620. - I think he liked my profile.
- He definitely liked your profile.
Copy !req
621. That's why you got the hit.
Copy !req
622. - Yeah. And he liked it.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
623. You know, I think I want to meet him.
Copy !req
624. Put it on the projector.
Copy !req
625. So...
Copy !req
626. You posed as Tiger Tiger.
Copy !req
627. Floyd messages Tiger Tiger
and he makes a plan to meet for sex.
Copy !req
628. And he brought some dad porn
to get his game face on.
Copy !req
629. Daddy's favorite
Indiana Jones jack-off classics.
Copy !req
630. Then you show instead.
Copy !req
631. On your nerd bike.
Copy !req
632. You have a drink together.
Bloody Mary found at the scene.
Copy !req
633. It's got a massive dose of Amphezyne in it.
Copy !req
634. A pharmaceutical amphetamine.
Copy !req
635. Twenty minutes later, he's dead.
Copy !req
636. You were prescribed
Amphezyne on November 3rd,
Copy !req
637. six days before the murder.
Copy !req
638. That's premeditation. That's murder one.
Copy !req
639. And in the state of Missouri,
which is the state we're in,
Copy !req
640. that's the death penalty, buddy.
Copy !req
641. Well, now you're afraid to talk.
Copy !req
642. Hello? Yes. What?
Copy !req
643. Is this Floyd Smernitch?
Copy !req
644. Yeah.
Copy !req
645. Oh, my God, yes. From when he was young.
Copy !req
646. - Your name?
- Jodie Plumb.
Copy !req
647. - Thank you. It'll be right up.
- Okay.
Copy !req
648. Pardon me.
Copy !req
649. I'm a detective with the Twyla police.
May I ask you a question?
Copy !req
650. Sure.
Copy !req
651. Do you recognize this customer?
Copy !req
652. Yeah.
Copy !req
653. That's Watermelon Breeze.
Copy !req
654. And why do you call her "Watermelon Breeze"?
Copy !req
655. She always gets Watermelon Breeze.
We do that. Tina.
Copy !req
656. Who's that?
Copy !req
657. Watermelon Breeze.
Copy !req
658. Would it be strange for this woman
to order the Go Getter?
Copy !req
659. - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
660. - Because she's Watermelon Breeze.
- Yeah, she's Watermelon Breeze.
Copy !req
661. There was that one weird day, though.
Copy !req
662. So this guy was seeing men
on the side, on this website.
Copy !req
663. - The victim?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
664. The weatherman poses as a guy.
He lures him to the Kevin Klines.
Copy !req
665. And this poor guy,
he thinks he's going there for sex.
Copy !req
666. He brings his little pregame boner fuel,
some, like, classic Indiana Jones porn.
Copy !req
667. But Forrest shows up
with a dosed canned beverage.
Copy !req
668. - "Dosed canned beverage"?
- Amphezyne.
Copy !req
669. - We got him on the prescription.
- Okay.
Copy !req
670. - That's the whole thing?
- That's the whole thing.
Copy !req
671. Well, if that's the whole thing,
that's murder one. Capital.
Copy !req
672. - Sound about right?
- Sounds about right, yeah.
Copy !req
673. Pretty good day.
Copy !req
674. Okay.
Copy !req
675. I mentioned to you this morning,
Copy !req
676. we get him in holding
Copy !req
677. and some more of the elements
of the case will break.
Copy !req
678. That's pretty ordinary, but, yeah.
Copy !req
679. And so, they did, as I expected.
Copy !req
680. - So... Pretty good day.
- Good.
Copy !req
681. Yeah.
Copy !req
682. So, Tiger Tiger...
Copy !req
683. That's our guy, Forrest. False profile.
Copy !req
684. He led Smernitch to believe
it was a sex hookup on DTF.
Copy !req
685. And he was ready for sex,
Copy !req
686. as evidenced
by the Indiana Jones jack-off classics.
Copy !req
687. But the weatherman shows up instead
with a Bloody Mary
Copy !req
688. and it's got Amphezyne in it.
Copy !req
689. And, yeah, the weatherman
had a prescription for it.
Copy !req
690. Less than a week before.
Copy !req
691. It's Palomar.
Copy !req
692. - What's that?
- Palomar?
Copy !req
693. You never heard that in Twyla?
Copy !req
694. - No.
- That's the world's strongest knot.
Copy !req
695. That's what we call a case
like this that's tied up tight.
Copy !req
696. It's a Palomar.
Copy !req
697. Floyd Smernitch wasn't jacking it
to those Indiana Jones photos.
Copy !req
698. 'Cause those photos are of Floyd Smernitch.
Copy !req
699. That's not porn.
That's a younger Floyd Smernitch.
Copy !req
700. It has some other meaning.
Copy !req
701. - That's him?
- Yes.
Copy !req
702. He...
Copy !req
703. What?
Copy !req
704. He brought pictures of himself there?
Copy !req
705. - The morning he was killed?
- Yes.
Copy !req
706. And...
Copy !req
707. - And what?
- And the wife lied to me today.
Copy !req
708. - Yeah, about?
- Their affair.
Copy !req
709. - She's claiming that Forrest seduced her.
- Yeah, and?
Copy !req
710. I think it was the other way around, Homer.
Copy !req
711. On your left!
Copy !req
712. Meteorologist Clark Forrest has been charged
Copy !req
713. with murder of American Sign Language
interpreter Floyd Smernitch.
Copy !req
714. We are learning
from the District Attorney's office
Copy !req
715. that there was an affair
Copy !req
716. between Forrest and Floyd Smernitch's wife.
Copy !req
717. Further details of this ongoing investigation
Copy !req
718. have not yet been released.
Copy !req
719. Hey, Eimy.
Copy !req
720. I'm being charged...
Copy !req
721. This...
Copy !req
722. This guy...
Copy !req
