All right, guys. It's your boy HoodNewsKicks, man. Welcome back to another video, man. Today, we're going to be checking out Dr. Insanity, man. Family discovers missing dad's head inside of a garbage bag, man. Be sure to hit that like button, hit that sub button, hit that notification bell. Man, be sure to hype the video, too, man. I know y'all love hyping me. But, without further ado, man, shout out to Dr. Insanity. Got to do that as well before I start the video because the content is here. So, let's get right into it. We saw some part right here, let's say. Truck is the most likely truck that must have backed up right here, let's say, right? Okay. >> [screaming] >> Is that okay? Back up. Back up, please. Back up. Back up. Okay. Back up. Back up, please. >> [laughter] >> Back Back up. Back up. Back up. Back up. >> Officers report to a seemingly routine traffic incident in Moses Lake, Washington. What no officer on scene realizes is that this encounter [music] would be the start of a terrifying investigation leading to the most dark and twisted body cam footage we've ever shown on this channel. >> But, if you want justice >> I already know who did it. >> Listen to me, please. >> Get out of your car and come get my kid. Put him in cuffs right now. >> Don't say anything right now. We don't know. Man, did you do it? Look at me. Man, did you do it? >> [snorts] >> It's an early Sunday afternoon on November 3rd when officers patrolling downtown Moses Lake identify a truck matching a stolen vehicle report logged [music] just hours earlier. Multiple police units have been dispatched, more than typically assigned to a stolen vehicle report. Almost [music] as if from the very start, police somehow knew this vehicle theft report would soon unravel into something much worse. >> 145 at we're slow rolling. Uh parking lot at Porter House. >> Inside the vehicle is 27-year-old professional athlete Isaiah Thomas, the former A-star wide receiver for Eastern Oregon University, who's currently armed with a weapon. >> Woah. Hey, bro. >> Hey, you're going to get out of the car. Get out of the truck, please. Here's what happened. It's The truck was reported as stolen. Whose truck is this? You need to talk to me, man. >> It's my truck. >> It's your truck? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Do you have your ID? Registration? Just go and turn off, please. I apologize if it's your truck, but it wasn't registered in your name, man. >> Yeah, I know. >> Okay. >> There's ammunition in the front seat. >> Okay. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Okay. >> I need you to chill out, bro. You're going to be You're going to be okay. >> All right, man. >> Just Just come out and step out of the car, okay? >> The ammunition on the passenger seat suggests that Isaiah might be carrying a weapon. The officer quickly realizes that this encounter could escalate at any moment, so they swiftly order him out of the vehicle, only to uncover something interesting about his identity. >> Oh, what up, Greg? >> What's up, man? >> You know what they say when a cop know you, your ass in trouble. >> Alvarado? >> Yeah, how you doing, Isaiah? >> Another day. >> Another day. You're going to go Don't reach for anything. >> You want to put me in the penitentiary right now? >> No, no, bro. I'm going to make sure you don't have any weapons on you, okay? >> I do got a weapon on me. >> What do you have? >> I think I got a knife right here in my back pocket. >> Pocket knife? >> This one. >> That's it? Okay. Can I a seat in here? >> I'm one of the worst I know, man. >> Okay. >> I guess it's ridiculous how bad I need one, huh? >> I hear you. Do you know you? Yes, I went to high school with him. He was the star athlete, man. >> I was. >> Then he started He started talking and it was >> Kind of weird. >> Yeah, but >> It turns out Officer Alvarado and Isaiah went to high school together, and Alvarado recalls Isaiah as a standout football player who went on [music] to compete at the college level. But now, in front of him was a disoriented young man barely able to focus [music] and answer their questions in a stolen vehicle. A stark contrast to the [music] athlete Alvarado once knew. In reality, there is a very good reason for Isaiah's odd behavior. One that Officer Alvarado will soon understand as within [music] minutes, Isaiah and his family will be at the center of a murder investigation [music] with only one question left unsolved. For now, officers decide to contact Isaiah's family to inform them of his recent actions and detainment. They quickly get his family contact details and call his mother, 47-year-old Cassie Thomas. However, the information Cassie provides shifts the course of the investigation in an unexpected way. >> Hello. >> Hello, this is Officer Alvarado with the Moselle Police Department. I'm trying to reach Cassie. >> This is she. >> Hey, do you have a son uh Isaiah? >> Yes, I do. >> We had a call earlier about him being in someone else's vehicle. He he's in a truck now. It's a gray Chevy Silverado. >> Okay. >> We're trying to figure out if this is his truck or not cuz he's saying it is, but the person that called about him said that he stole the truck from another neighbor. >> No, uh now that's his his and his grandfather's. >> Okay, who's his grandpa if you don't mind me asking? >> Richard. >> Richard? >> Yeah, he probably let him borrow it. He's staying with his grandfather right now. >> What's the address? >> Uh 430 Dale >> Yep, that's where the truck was taken. >> Okay, that's weird. >> Yeah, I know that clarifies something cuz we we thought potentially this truck might have been stolen so we were trying to figure it out. Um >> No, I'm sorry about that. >> No, no, no worries. >> At this point, Officer Alvarado begins to realize the mistake they've made. Now it makes sense why Isaiah immediately asked for a lawyer. He was being accused of something he clearly didn't do. As [music] Officer Alvarado continues speaking with Isaiah's mom, he decides to ask about something that's been worrying him since the very moment Isaiah stepped [music] out of the truck. >> I went to high school with Isaiah. He wasn't never really like this. Is everything okay? >> Um he should be. He should be fine. >> Okay. >> Uh he's >> seemed a little bit off to me when he was talking. >> Well, probably because he's being accused of something he didn't do. So >> It's his grandpa's truck. >> Okay, he has to bring it back. >> Yeah, he he lives at 430 Dale. But thank you for answering my phone calls and my questions. It actually helps out a lot. >> Okay. All right. >> Okay, thank you. >> Thank you. Bye. >> Bye. >> Officer Alvarado doesn't know it yet, but his suspicion that something is very wrong with Isaiah isn't far from the truth. Still, with no evidence tying Isaiah to a crime, they have no choice but to release him. But as he walks away, Officer Alvarado follows him hoping to reconnect with his old friend. >> All right, let's walk over to the front of your truck. Look, I just want to tell you something, all right? I know you don't want to talk about this, but it's cool. You don't have to, okay? So, you all right, man? You you want Like, off the books, do you want to talk about anything? Cuz I'll turn off my camera and have a conversation, bro. >> Like, uh it's just like I We're out of time right now, bro. >> Yeah. >> There's a Is there a time in everybody's life, bro, where they just need to like really reevaluate what's >> Yeah. >> going on, you know? >> Yeah. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to call. I'll sit down and have a conversation with you, bro. >> All right. You take care. >> To Alvarado, it seems Isaiah wants to say something, but he just can't find the words. For now, Isaiah gets into his truck and drives off, unaware that this won't be the last time today he'll be accused of a crime. >> Man, Isaiah got some some [ __ ] going on, bro. He got a He got some [ __ ] going on, but it's getting interesting. >> Dispatch, can I help you? >> Um yeah, um I was wondering if I could speak to somebody about a missing person. >> In Moses Lake? >> It's my father. Nobody's seen him. Yes, Moses Lake. >> Okay. And his first and last name? >> Richard Andrews. >> And what is his home address? Is it the 430 Dale? >> Correct. >> All right, Kelly, I've got this report started. I'm going to hand it over to the officers. Um I just need you to try to find a recent picture of him. And if you hear from him or anything changes before they contact you, go ahead and give us a call back and let us know, okay? >> Okay. >> On the phone is Kelly Kirkendall, reporting that her father, 75-year-old Richard Andrews, mysteriously vanished. Officers are sent to his address, and minutes later they arrive to investigate. >> Hello. Well, I'm I'm better than you guys. >> How's it going? >> How are you? >> Carmen. >> Carmen? All right. Can I just talk to you? >> Waiting for Sergeant Rodriguez are Carmen, Kelly, and Cassie, daughters of Richard Andrews, the missing elderly man. As he begins speaking to them, hoping to learn more about their father's disappearance, a familiar face steps out of the house. >> So, we have no idea? >> The neighbor talked to my husband. This is my husband, Mike. >> Hi, Mike. I'm sorry. I didn't know. >> He hasn't seen him in a day and a half or so. >> I haven't seen him longer than that, but his phone's been ringing. His sister's called. Nobody knows where he's at. So. >> Okay. And this Is this normal? >> No. >> What's wrong? >> Okay. What's that? >> Nothing. >> Do you Do you know Do you know where where where your Is it your grandfather? >> Yeah, it's my grandpa. >> Do you know where he's at? >> No, I have no clue where he's at. >> No. >> He didn't tell you anything where he was going Did you see him leave? >> No. So, basically what I did see was him talking to somebody out here. He was kind of like parked a little farther out. Like he pulled off to the side a little bit. They're talking in the window. I looked down. That's it. >> He did tell me that he was going up to the res, but I just got confirmation from Greg, right? That he's not there, so I don't know. >> Which res? >> Uh Colville? >> Colville? >> Yeah. >> Yeah, he has property up there, but we already put a phone call up there and they said no he nobody >> Nobody's there. About what time was it when you saw him last? >> I don't remember. >> Was it morning, afternoon, night time? >> It was afternoon. >> Afternoon? >> It was in like late afternoon. >> Okay. >> All right. >> While officers are surprised to be speaking with Isaiah and his mother, Cassie, for the second time that day, their priority right now is finding his grandfather, Richard. With the timeline now established and Isaiah believed to be the last person to see Richard, Sergeant Rodriguez turns his attention to him. But as their conversation unfolds, he begins to notice something strange about this family. >> Isaiah, you said you saw him a day about a day and a half ago. And that would have been so yeah yesterday afternoon sometime or the day before? >> Yesterday, no. Not yesterday. Was that day a day and a half ago? >> So Friday, today's Sunday. >> Friday. >> So yeah bro. >> So November 1st. >> [laughter] >> When you saw him what were you doing? What was going on with that? >> Right there smoking. >> Okay and where was he? >> Right there talking to that guy and then I looked down, boom. And then that was that. >> Okay it's it's >> Was it weird for you that he wasn't here? Anything like that? You think that? Okay. >> He be gone for weeks. >> Yeah. >> Because he has this property. >> gone for weeks at a time. No one be hearing from >> That's why he's tripping. Why why are we tripping? >> Yeah bro. >> But the only thing that's weird is that he left his wallet here. >> That's the only weird thing that got me. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Okay. But it's not >> That's very strange to me. >> But it's normal for him to be gone weeks at a time. But not home. >> know where he's at. >> Usually down at the call them. Okay. >> What stands out to Rodriguez is how differently the family reacts to the disappearance of their relative. While Isaiah and his mother Cassie suggests that Richard's absence isn't especially unusual with Isaiah even casually smoking weed, his daughter Kelly sees it very differently and appears genuinely concerned for her father in a way the others do not. That's when Isaiah's father Anthony arrives bringing with him the breakthrough they've been waiting for. >> What you talking about up there? >> Yeah I see. >> You need to go down to a shop. Take some pictures down there. To me it looks like there's something going on down there. It looks like some burnt [ __ ] That's laid out there and some >> Where is the shop? >> The shop's down in the valley. >> Do you know what's >> know where the motorcycle shop is? >> That's just if he's not here he's usually down there. >> Oh I got you. I thought something Do you think something else is going on down there? >> No no no no. I'm just saying that if he's not here he's down there. >> No I'm just asking you. >> No what I'm saying is that something that was out there that was look like there's some bunked up [ __ ] out there that's near never been there. >> What's Carmen's address? >> A day and a half ago. >> He's already out. >> Bro, why y'all keep all in No, but y'all pissing me off. >> Hey, you pissing me off, too. >> Everybody pressing me like I >> You're the You're the closest thing to to his to to him. The last person he's seen. That's why he's out. >> All right. I'm I'm not going to get >> No no need to get frustrated now. >> I just keep I have to keep repeating myself. >> Would you be able to take one of my officers down there to where to where the shop is at? >> Yeah. >> Just so that way we know exactly what we're talking about. And it so that way if he's there, that's great. >> Right. >> Do you remember what he was wearing, uh, Isaiah? >> I cannot recall. >> Cuz that's part That's part of the report that I'm taking so I can enter it into the system. >> bugging, bro. >> Okay. I I know. I'm just letting you know. >> He had a >> He had slippers. >> I can't >> Okay. Are we leaving that? >> No, those are in the house. >> So, any any Remember any jewelry? >> Jewelry? >> No. >> No jewelry. >> No. Let me Let me >> I'm sorry. >> Let me talk >> to him. >> Thank you. You can go. >> Okay. >> You want to have him follow you? >> Yeah. So, uh, cuz we don't know the exact address. So, if you if you want to follow Anthony down to the his shop down in the in Cascade Valley. >> Okay. >> His cell phone's here, wallet's here, everything's here, dog's here. Just whatever he had on his person in his pocket is all he had. >> Okay. >> So, >> All right. >> All right. >> Anthony and several other family members head to the shop with a deputy while Sergeant Rodriguez stays behind to gather the remaining details. As he does so, he takes note of the family's statements so far and what stands out is Anthony's frustration with Isaiah. It seems like the two of them know something the others don't as the way Anthony questions his son sounds like he's accusing him of being involved with Richard's disappearance. Meanwhile, Isaiah is being defensive claiming everyone is overreacting. His mother, on the other hand, remains calm, smiling, and at times even answering questions that weren't directed at her. Rodriguez notes the contrast in this family's behavior and steps away to drive to Richard's shop. But before he can go, Isaiah's mother would make a horrifying statement, one [music] that would come back to haunt her. >> So, I'll get this logged in, and then if you guys have any, give me a call. >> Get out of your car and come get my kid. Put him in cuffs right now. >> Don't don't say anything right now. We don't know. Okay. So, yeah, let me know. Okay. Thank you. >> Those statements are coming from Isaiah's mother, Cassie, as she approaches the officer just out of frame. In a sudden shift, Cassie tells the sergeant to arrest her own son, catching him completely off guard. Just moments ago, she hadn't seemed particularly >> I ain't going to lie, that caught me off guard because she been sitting here just smiling and not saying anything, but calm as can be, but that just threw me completely off. >> concerned. Now, she's adamant that Isaiah is guilty of something. It's a sharp change in behavior, one that leaves officers wondering if Cassie knows far more than she's letting on. For now, the sergeant doesn't fully understand what Cassie's implying, but in the next few minutes, her urgency will make a lot more sense. By now, Anthony is on his way to Richard's shop, just 2 miles from the house, with a patrol unit following closely behind. And as the first deputy pulls up to the shop, he notices several other family members have also gathered. Expecting to find a lead on Richard's whereabouts, they would instead uncover something no one was prepared to see. >> Somebody take over this. Paul. >> There was a truck right here they're saying. Truck that must have backed up truck that must have backed up right here they're saying, right? Okay. >> [screaming] >> Is that okay? Back up. Back up, please. Back up. Back up, please. Back up, please. >> I want to see. I want to make sure. >> Back up. All right. >> I don't see anything. It would probably >> [laughter] >> Him, calm down. Oh my god, what did they >> Okay. Back up. Back up, please. [laughter] Back Back up. Back up. Back up. Back up. Okay. Ma'am, can you come this way, please? Ma'am, can you come this way, please? Ma'am. 141 Mike, I need 106 to my location. >> [laughter] [screaming] >> Okay. >> [laughter] >> Ma'am, can you come Can you take her over there, please? Please. This is This is now a crime scene. We need to >> Yes, I know. I'm trying to get him. >> Okay. [laughter] I know. >> Oh, Kelly. >> Sarge, he's he's buried in the ground. He's There's someone buried underneath the ground. [laughter] >> Buried in a shallow grave in the front yard of his own shop lies the dead body of 75-year-old Richard Andrews. Richard's daughter, Kim, is the first to see [music] him. She recognizes her father immediately, revealing part of his leg with the same jeans he always wore. >> [music] >> It's a horrifying discovery for them to make. Even the deputy is shaken and unable to control the situation on his own. But as he observes the family, something about it feels off. By the time he arrived, the family had already begun digging and within moments of uncovering Richard's body, they started pointing fingers, fixating on [music] the one person they're convinced is responsible. >> I'm not moving right I can't. >> Okay. >> Don't touch me. >> Do you want me to help you? >> No. Don't touch me. >> Okay. >> I knew this was going to happen. That little hit his son, my sister's gun is at their house right now, get it? And the gun's probably on the bed. It's a rifle. It's laying in my mom's bed, behind the bed. Wait. We have to wait till he leaves. >> So, we're having the county respond, okay? And their supervisor is going to come and they're probably going to set up a containment, okay? Please I I just ask that you guys try to try to cooperate as much I I can't make any I can't make any promises. >> No, we're not leaving. >> Okay. Well, ma'am >> I'm going to call him here right now. >> Is somebody over there getting that little psychopath? >> If Hold on. If you want to do what's best for >> No, what I want to do is go >> I just I just need you guys Please don't, okay? I just need you guys to at least try to have some understanding, okay? And I want you guys to listen. >> To the officer's surprise, Kim doesn't hesitate to blame her nephew Isaiah. Despite there being no direct evidence linking him to what happened here. Shaken and unsure how to handle the situation, the deputy allows the family to remain at the crime scene even after the body is discovered. Then 2 minutes later, Sergeant Rodriguez finally arrives stepping straight [music] into the chaos. He tries to regain control of the situation, but it doesn't take long before he loses his patience. >> Where are they at? >> Please, let them know we're there. >> Okay, we didn't touch it, did we? >> They >> They touched it when I was coming up here. They were touching it. >> Ma'am, let's let's get away, please, ma'am. Ma'am, we we need we need we need to preserve, okay? Come on. Come on, we need to make sure that we do this, okay? Okay, yeah, I'm right here. No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Yeah. >> And then it's like there's some stuff burned over here. >> Okay. Yeah, we need some We need everybody, please, we need everybody back, please, okay? Ma'am, we do need everybody out of here. If you want we need to preserve this, okay? I get it, you're upset. But if you want justice >> I already know who did it. >> Listen to me, please. I know you know, we need other things to make this work. Please. Please. >> Despite Kim's certainty, officers aren't yet convinced that Isaiah is their killer because as they inspect the scene closer, something else stands out. Something that starts to point to someone very different. Burned debris is scattered across the grass, clear sign that something had been intentionally destroyed. But the cover-up goes even deeper. The section of lawn where Richard was buried had been cut out, replaced, and even watered afterwards. An effort to make the yard appear completely untouched. For investigators, it's still unclear whether Richard was murdered here or only his body was dumped. To find out, they need to search his shop standing just a few feet away. >> Sir, the driver is making himself known. Come out with your hands up. Police, anybody in here? Sir, the driver is coming out. Hands out, make yourself known. Damn, I'm going to go right here. >> go left? >> Yep. >> Okay. >> Want to bump up to that door? >> Got it? >> Clear. >> Up ahead is Richard's shower, and strangely, the deputy notices it appears to have been recently used, suggesting the killer may have been here only minutes earlier. Officers then continue clearing the rest of the shop, finding no signs of a struggle, nothing to suggest Richard was killed here. So, they shift their focus to securing a search warrant for his house, a search that would end very differently. As officers begin to regain control of the chaotic scene, Richard's daughter, Cassie, arrives, the same woman who had told the sergeant earlier to arrest her son, Isaiah. Why she accused him before the body had even been discovered is now a question detectives need to answer. But first, they have to break the devastating news to her. >> Yeah. >> Yeah, gently. I know. >> I have to see. I need to find my dad. >> No, we can't. We can't. We're going to take you >> need to see. >> Just Just Let's go go around that way. That's going to be his, but the family member is the one driving it. So. >> No. Please, let me see. >> [laughter] >> No. No, you can't go. Now you can't Listen. Listen, you can't. >> I have to see. >> [laughter] >> Cassie. We We can't We can't cross that line. >> I just want to look over there. >> tough. She She She just wants to look over the line. We want She won't go past the line. I'll make sure. >> Let me see. >> Look Look by the door. >> Please, just let me >> By the door. Okay, it's >> Naturally, Cassie is distraught, not only because her father is dead, but because she suspects her own son may be responsible. For now, officers continue securing the scene and prepare to send Richard's body for autopsy. But as they do, they begin to overhear the family frantically talking amongst themselves. And what they're saying would suggest the situation is only escalating because someone else might be a >> I ain't going to lie, y'all. The mom is kind of giving off Ooh, she doing too much. Like I don't know, suspicious. I don't know. Y'all get what I'm saying. >> about to get hurt. >> Right. We We have one that's uh confirmed in a shallow grave. Do not start talking, please. Don't say anything. Just be quiet. Please. You know what what's going on. >> It's over there already. >> Guy doesn't do anything wrong in the house. That's what I'm trying to say. >> I get it, but we need I've heard everybody, but we need things to figure out. 106 Mac, we need uh units down at 430 Dale. Ma'am, please. >> I hit it out cuz it's behind you. >> We're going to have to leave the truck here for now. Please. >> 2930 on it. >> Well, where am I supposed to go then? >> I just want you to walk that way, please. >> All right, 25 back. I'm clear. Hey, David. And there's 106 man. 106 Mac, I have the uh father heading down to 430 Dale. And possible suspect is there and it might not be good. >> According to Carmen, Anthony is furious and already on his way back to the house, convinced [music] his own son Isaiah is responsible. He's just seen the body of his father-in-law buried in the ground. So, what he does next is completely unpredictable. Multiple units are quickly sent to the house, racing to get there before Anthony confronts Isaiah. Minutes later, officers make it to the house just seconds ahead of Anthony, who is right behind them, along with the rest of the family, all demanding answers. >> I want to get my partner and get him back. >> Nope, nope. Just Stay back. >> Stay Stay back. >> Back up. >> Stay back. Go back now. >> Come on. Did you Isaiah? >> No comment. >> Need you guys to stay back, okay? Please. Just let us secure him in your car, Thomas. >> No. >> First can First can we go out with him, please? >> Hey, did you do it? >> Please stay back, sir. >> Hey, did you do it? Look at me. Did you do it? >> Please. I need you to stay back, sir. >> Did you do it, Isaiah? Look at me. >> Why would I listen to you? >> Yeah, you're my firstborn. Did you do it? Yeah. One more time. >> No, no, no. Call my lawyer. >> All right, let's go ahead and do it in here. You can take a seat. Close the door. Here's the deal. That's family. >> Okay. >> One of the family members is his son. Does he seem straight? >> Yeah. >> So, they came down here to confront him cuz they think he did it. >> Yeah. >> The only reason he's in cuffs right now is cuz we don't >> I thought he was like the suspect. >> No, we don't have BCI reasonable. Right now, he's in there cuz they think he did it. We need to keep them separated. >> Okay. >> Got it. >> Cool. >> For the second time today, Isaiah is accused of a crime. Only now it's something far more serious and the accusations are coming from his own family. They stand by watching as he's taken into custody convinced the case is now solved. But what officers are about to uncover would complicate everything revealing that no one in this family can truly be trusted. But before we get to that, I used to just keep all my money in my bank account and not really thinking it was possible to grow it without having to wrap my head around all the different investments and As police continue speaking with the rest of the family. But by now Richard's daughters are too shaken to talk. So investigators turn to his son-in-law Greg, one of the first to discover the body. And they're about to learn that he has a vital information that would begin to piece together this meticulous murder. >> So let's start from the beginning. Um, how do you know the guy who works on the shop out here? >> Richard is my father-in-law. I married my is one of his daughters last year. >> Okay, so he's he is your current father-in-law. >> Uh, he is my father-in-law. I live across the street. >> Okay. So you're pretty close with him. >> I was very close to him. >> Okay. What what do you think happened? >> I think that um there may have been some type of transaction at Richard's house with Isaiah. Um I don't know exactly the full details of what's going on with him, but I know he's been having issues, paranoid issues and things of that nature. >> What do you mean by transaction? Like an altercation? >> Yeah, what I think is Richard's he's old school. He doesn't he's not into the white or the backyard or the marijuana. And I think maybe he confronted him. >> Somebody said something about the tarp that you saw. >> Yeah, I had a tarp we had a tarp at the house. And I'm not saying that's the actual tarp, but I know that it was a brown and gray tarp. >> That you had at your house? >> That we had at our house and I can't it It sitting right there on the um um really by my truck, but where where the but where the barbecue is and stuff and I hadn't seen it. So, I don't know if it blew away, I don't know, but it is missing. >> And sure enough, when the family began digging, they discovered Richard's body had been fully wrapped in a brown and gray tarp, with that tarp belonging to Greg, [music] it now raises two possibilities. Either he just incriminated himself or whoever did [music] this used it specifically to frame him. And Greg has his own theory about who may have set him up. >> It's it's he's Isaiah has been acting pretty pretty strange lately. >> You've met Isaiah? >> Yes. >> Has he ever been to your house? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> And the last time he was there he was he was super paranoid about everything. >> Does he drive Richard's truck very often? >> Uh everybody drives Richard's trucks often, to be honest with you. >> Okay. >> He He will drive them all the time, but um I do know that Isaiah was pulled over today, I want to believe. >> Yeah. >> And Moses. >> You'd mentioned seeing tire tracks, is that correct? >> Correct. Going into the grass. >> Going into the grass. >> Yes, sir. >> Tell me tell me about these tire tracks. >> Uh I seen it appear to either somebody was backing in or somebody had turned to the right, I believe. >> Okay. >> And I seen a tire mark going into the grass and I seen uh that's when I seen it and then I noticed the hose and everything like I told you. >> Is it common here on the property for vehicles to go into the grass? >> Negative. I Negative. He never goes on that grass. >> Okay. According to Greg, Richard's truck was shared and often driven by multiple members of the family, which immediately complicates things, as the tire tracks officers identified at the crime scene no longer point to a single suspect. But just as leads [music] begin to run dry, officers would learn that the search warrant for Richard's home has finally been approved. So, detectives quickly wrap up their interview with Greg and head straight back to the house. The moment they step inside the home, the detectives notice a strong scent of bleach in the air. All surfaces have been wiped down and inside there are clear signs of a cleanup job. Detectives know they're dealing with a methodical killer, possibly more than one, but even then they would overlook something critical. When detectives inspect the house more closely, they notice spots of blood on the back door handle that had been missed. Their first real piece of evidence [music] tying Richard's house to his murder. And then, they stumble upon something even more significant, a knife hidden in the living room still in its sheath marked with visible red stains. Whoever tried to erase what happened here didn't manage to get rid of everything. With the scene processed, all evidence sent for forensic analysis, and the family dispersed, the focus now shifts to the man back at the station. Since his arrest, Isaiah has refused to cooperate, but now as officers return to confiscate his clothing, they're about to discover the most crucial piece of evidence may have been right in front of them all day. >> Okay, Mr. Godfrey, take off your shoes. And then take off your sweatshirt. >> Bro, this hell >> Okay, I'll try to get you another blanket. You got two blankets there. I'll try to get you another one. >> Oh, [ __ ] >> When officers hold up Isaiah's shoes, they notice they're covered in dirt and possibly dried blood. It's the first and only detail that could place him anywhere near the crime scene, but it's far from definitive. With the day coming to an end, investigators finish processing their findings and prepare for tomorrow, hoping they'll finally be able to answer what really happened to Richard. As for Isaiah, by continuing to refuse to speak, he has effectively handed his fate over to his family, who have already begun forming theories and accusations, with even the closest relatives ready to completely turn on each other. The next morning, after nearly 12 hours of detectives digging through the family's past, troubling rumors begin to surface alleging Isaiah might have been involved in an old cold homicide case that remains unsolved to this day. Detectives also hear whispers that Isaiah's own parents may have helped cover it up and may have even known what happened to Richard long before anyone else. These are serious allegations that detectives will need to explore carefully, but right now their immediate priority is uncovering what truly happened to Richard and who's responsible. To do that, they begin calling family members into the station for formal interviews. The first to arrive [music] is Isaiah's father, Anthony. Among many other details, detectives need to address one critical question. Why was he so quick to suspect [music] his own son? Was it simply a gut feeling or did he know something no one else did? >> Oh, I think it was a week ago. Right? Almost the week before this incident happened. And Kim [clears throat] is like, "You guys need to come down here and Isaiah's acting crazy." We go down there and we walk in the house and as soon as we get in the house, he's like, you could He had this big bag of weed that you could tell that he got from like the dispensary or whatnot. It's big. And on my eyes, you know, it was like it was about this big. >> Yeah. >> What the [ __ ] are you doing here? This is why you kicked me out the house for, right? I was like, "Yeah." He says, "What the [ __ ] are you doing here? This has nothing to do with you." And I was like, "Listen here, man. Your aunt was scared because you're at you're wilding out up in here." So then I look I'm looking at him and he was like, "Say I say I am." He's got a butcher knife like this and he just like say but he's like crying. "Say I am." And say this I if if he had got me, it would have been all of us. You know. So I just said, "I'll leave." Like where did I mess up, you know, as a father did I do something wrong like what did I do cuz this is not I you he was just like "You're the best dad ever, man. I couldn't ask for a dad man better than you, man." It's kind of like you did everything right. You're great dad, man. And then and then Kim's like bust out crying and then he's just like "Get the out of here, mother [ __ ] kill you." >> Naturally, this account from Anthony catches detectives off guard as they realize the incident may have foreshadowed everything. So they paused the interview and look into it confirming that it did in fact occur. One week earlier, police were called to Isaiah's aunt Kim's house after reports that he was experiencing a manic episode. [music] And as detectives review the body cam footage of that incident, it quickly becomes clear why the entire family believes he did it. >> I please don't shoot just tase the [ __ ] out of him cuz he's got the knife. >> What's He's got the knife with him? >> Yeah. >> Okay, what's >> That's my husband. >> Okay. >> That's our oldest son and >> Okay, what's what's his issue like is he Can you Do you guys want to just stay out here? I know it's he's your son but we just don't know what the situation is, right? Um Isaiah, do you have a knife on you? Do you want to go down on the ground just just to verify, man? >> He's acting like he's >> Hey, Isaiah. We're going to put you in cuffs but it's just for your safety, okay? You're not under arrest. We just want to make sure you're okay, okay? You want to go down to your knees, man? Jeff Put your Put your hands behind your back, man. Can you put your hands behind your back? Again, you're not under arrest, okay? Just doing this for your safety. >> Is this Is it >> Yeah, I'm you're being recorded on a camera right here, so >> Is Is it Is it supposed to be red when it's recording? >> Yep. It's See how it's blinking red? >> Oh, okay. >> Yep. Yeah, you want to walk over here to our car, man? We're going to figure out what's going on and then kind of just go from there, okay? >> When officers detain Isaiah, they find him in tears, struggling to hold himself together. And as they pull him away from his family, he's about to tell officers something unexpected about himself. >> What's going on today? >> My [ __ ] ruined. I'm just going through a lot [ __ ] right now, so >> Okay. Do you want to Do you have any plans to hurt yourself or anything like that? >> Uh no, not No, I mean, I guess everybody do, you know, but I mean >> plans to hurt yourself today? >> No, not today, but This past few This past week >> So you're having having a rough time? >> Yeah. But it's all good, bro. I'll I'll bounce back, bro. I'm going to shake back. Yeah, but it's all good, bro. I'm I'm going to I'm going to shake back again. >> Yeah. >> And again and again >> Do you want to Do you want to Do you want to go to the hospital or anything >> and again and again >> Huh? >> Do you want to go to the hospital or anything like that? >> No, bro. It's good. Like, I'm good. >> So So what was the What was the deal with the knife? >> I got a swisher in there. It's called It's a blunt. Basically, I cut use a knife and I use it to split it. >> Okay. >> To cut to take out the tobacco to put my weed in. >> Okay. >> At first. >> Okay. >> And then me and my aunt start arguing when the knife was on the table, so >> And you decided it already. >> It was already there. Me I And we start arguing. I didn't want to leave, but she just It's not that big of a deal. I was a good person, bro. >> No one said you're not a good person. I don't I've never I've never met you. >> bro, like >> And what happened? >> I just life, bro. >> Clearly, there is sympathy in the officer's voice as he realizes the man in front of him has been dealt a very difficult hand in life. And although Isaiah downplays the incident, in hindsight, it would read very differently because perhaps this was the last and only time something could have been done to prevent the tragic fate of Richard Andrews. After analyzing the incident and forming a clearer picture of Isaiah, detectives returned to finish their interview with Anthony. Through his account, it becomes clear he believes Isaiah's issues stem from two factors: prolonged marijuana use and repeated head trauma from his time as a wide receiver, a position notorious for heavy hits and brain damage. Anthony also goes on to clarify crucial details about his son's mental state, making it evident that his initial suspicions of Isaiah were rooted in his son's increasingly unpredictable and volatile behavior. So, with Anthony's perspective now on the record, the interview comes to an end and detectives move on to Richard's daughter, Kim, the person who found the body. Kim goes on to explain why she immediately suspected her nephew Isaiah, pointing to his history of violent psychotic episodes, including pulling guns and knives on family members, as well as his white vans covered in dirt, something she says is highly unusual for him. Notably, she ends the interview by saying she fears that if Isaiah is ever released, he will do it again. With the case against Isaiah growing stronger by the minute, detectives then shift their attention to two more family members, Richard's daughter Chrissy and her partner, Floyd. Unlike everyone else, these two family members are about to become Isaiah's best and perhaps only chance of shifting how detectives view Isaiah's role in all of this. >> It's hard to kind of start this off, but as far as your would have been your father, right? >> Yes. So, I find out that they they find my dad buried in the back of his shop. >> I already knew. I told them, "Why are you letting that [ __ ] stay at my dad's house? You know he's going to kill him." >> So, I know you have questions for me, but then obviously I have questions for you and I think they're both geared around the same. >> When I got there, bro, it was weird. Weird, weird. And I'm like, "Man, something's not right." So, I left and that's when I told her and explained it to her. I even knew something was wrong before he had his episode. I said, "Something's not right with this kid." Something ain't You guys might want to be careful. Sure, soon as I leave, soon as we leave >> Yeah. >> all hell's breaking loose. >> Uh explain to me now the background how you knew something weird was going on with Isaiah. >> Because he Prior to this, he was staying with us and I've not exactly sure exactly what happened, but he started a conversation with my son. He pulls out a pistol from his drawers. I say to him, >> Isaiah, okay. >> sets it down. I got to go back home to my sister Cassie and I said, "You know that boy is sick. He's been on therapy. He needs [ __ ] help. Like, he needs to be medicated." >> Um >> The thing like I said, the the only thing the only thing that that that just bothers me the most, that kid was not clean at all. He wanted to make an attempt. He'll drop something on the floor and just walk away from it and leave it there. And usually I'll And usually I'll even ask, "Hey, where's Richard?" cuz I'll say hi to him. But for some reason it's just the atmosphere was just I'm like, "All right, something's wrong." So, I got on the phone with her and I'm like, "Oh, he's still wigging. He's wigging hard." And I said, "And your sister's tripping." I said, "Your sister acting like she's scared to death." Well, she knows he goes through his episode. Of course she's scared. I'm like, "Okay." It's when after after we found out what really happened is that she knew what he did. >> Mhm. >> At this point, detectives begin to realize Chrissy and Floyd aren't just angry at Isaiah, they also hold his mother accountable. And the couple's suspicions align with detectives who still can't explain why Cassie asked them to arrest Isaiah before the body was even discovered. So, with all of this in mind, detectives would ask them both point-blank who they believe is truly responsible for Richard's death. >> Uh so, I'm on the same page as you. You guys believe that Isaiah's mom >> Mhm. >> knew that he that >> She had She had knowledge of it. >> Richard's death. >> I She had to have knowledge of it. >> You think she >> That kid That kid wouldn't have cleaned. That kid wouldn't have done none of that. Because he ran over to the neighbor's house and tried to take their car. Did you guys get that information? >> Yes. >> All right. So, he's erratic. He's not clean. He's trying to He's running out He's trying to get out. He's trying to run off. He's trying to do whatever he can do to get out of the situation. He's not thinking about cleaning. He's not thinking about picking this guy up and putting him in the back of a truck and burying him. And then go down to the valley and go get a tarp, then go back up there in her dad's truck and they see it, and go back up to the house and wrap him in the tarp, and then come back and down to the valley, which is across the street from her sister's house, and bury him. When he Auntie's house. >> When you said that you you believe that she knew, do you believe that she helped cover the body? And clean up >> I can't go that far. I can't go that far because he doesn't have that mentality. >> At the end of this conversation, if she's not arrested by then, I don't know what to tell you guys. But, she sought She didn't sought it up like per se, like, "Oh, Isaiah's going to do this." And she manipulated the situation to her advantage. She knew what her son was capable of. She knew how to get him to that point of manic and psychosis. >> To detectives, accusations like these don't come lightly, especially between sisters. Additionally, Floyd's description of Isaiah aligns with what detectives already believe, that he's impulsive, messy, and incapable of thinking ahead. And with the next interview set to be Cassie herself, detectives understand just how >> What I tell y'all? I told y'all it was something about this lady right here, man. She just I don't know. Let's keep it going. >> much weight this conversation carries, not only for Isaiah's future, but for Cassie's as well. There's a lot they still need to figure out. Her unusual behavior outside the sergeant's car, her possible involvement in Richard's murder, and even lingering questions about a potential past homicide. But they know these answers won't come easily. They'll have to approach this carefully, waiting for the right moment to press her. And as her interview unfolds, watch closely for the moment Cassie begins to fear she's the one being implicated. >> There's no easy way to start this conversation. Go for it. >> Okay. Sorry. I'll work through it. Okay. So, um how has Isaiah's mental health been in the last few years? It sounds like he's been suffering. >> Um till last year, for sure. >> Last year? >> Um >> As far as like his mental health, is it something that he's diagnosed with, or just [clears throat] something you guys started noticing? >> We started noticing Uh >> [sighs] >> I'm trying to remember everything. Um October, that was before October of 2023. >> So, back for around >> Yeah. >> About a year ago? >> I believe that's when he started smoking and >> [sighs and gasps] >> Uh he didn't want to work, he didn't want to do that type of stuff and we kind of were like, "Well, he's going through it, you know, he's he's done some he's done playing football and that's something he's done since he's 5 years old." You know. >> Big cult like life change. >> Oh, yeah. No school, no schedule, no work out. >> Clearly, Cassie appears emotional, possibly even carrying a sense of guilt as she speaks about her son. Beyond that, nothing about her behavior stands out to detectives as suspicious, but as the interview continues, she begins recounting the same incident at Chrissy's house, where some noticeable differences between her story and the rest of the family starts to emerge. >> I knocked on the back door. She doesn't keep her back she uses it for her front door, but it's just and I walked [clears throat] in and my son's sitting at a little kitchenette table there. There's marijuana all over, a big bag, um some paraphernalia. [music] But he's sitting there with a knife and I walk in and I was like, "Son, hey son, what's going on? What are you doing here?" I said, "Well, what's going on with you? Is everything okay?" And he didn't see my husband. Uh his dad came in behind me and he seen his dad and instantly he's pissed. "What the are you doing here?" Uh But he hadn't gotten up yet. Like he was still sitting. >> Where's the knife in perspective? Like he's >> And he's sitting and he has it in his hand. He's not Like you're doing right now? So he's just sitting back in the chair? >> it and he's like trying He's like, "What are you doing here?" And we're still kind of standing at the door and when he seen my husband, he got even more pissed. "Who effing called you? What are you doing here?" My husband looked at me he and he stood in between us and he said, "Get out of here. Get out of here and go call the sheriff now." >> While retelling the story, Cassie appears far less disturbed by the incident despite it involving her own son. She also seems reluctant to discuss the part where he threatened her husband's life. So after a few hours of letting Cassie speak freely, allowing her to settle into the role of the victim, detectives would finally begin to push back [music] starting with one detail that would clearly catch her off guard. >> And I don't mean this this question in anything, but obviously like at this point >> only see certain things. >> Did you guys explain all of that about him pulling the knife on Anthony to the deputies? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> And dispatch too. She said, "Don't go back in there." >> Mhm. >> And I but I get why they're angry with me too. You know, that's what I said. And they don't think I did anything to try and help him. >> And I think most of it is emotions are going to be high right now. And >> No, they'll they'll they'll never talk to me again. I already know that. And they've made other threats. But they've also said other things too. And I And I don't know if you want to talk about those right now, but >> I think Uh Detective Hunt is following up on that part, but the weird vague comments about this is potentially not the first time Isaiah has done something. >> And I didn't hear any of it. I was at the house, but they were really going on like he's done this before and >> Like killed someone? >> That was the implication, but she also said that my husband and I helped cover it up. And that they know the name. Tragedies like this happened and people don't find their loved ones. We Well, at least we found my dad. >> Clearly Cassie is distraught, not only at the prospect of being ostracized by her family, but also at the possibility of being suspected by detectives as Isaiah's accomplice. But there's still one more question detectives [music] need answered, after which they'll have made up their minds about Cassie. >> When um you went to Sergeant Rodriguez and you made the comment that it's it's said you need to get him in cuffs. You need to get my son in cuffs. Why for you in that moment did you you know you knew it was Isaiah? Where was your mindset at? >> Uh >> I know I'm asking you to explain like a gut instinct. It's just >> just just the things he kept saying like you guys, why are you pressing me? He's like he's gone all the time weeks at a time. I said, how long has it been since you've seen him? And he was like a day and a half. >> So you've got kind of every other family member that's here that's worried and everything like that and his response didn't seem to match your guys's. >> Right. You just know. You feel it. It's It's like then I'm like he has to get him in cuffs. He has to go to jail. I have you know I just felt it. And I'm a I'm I'm a small you know, and I'm not in denial. And >> I do think personally you did the right thing. I think you handled everything as best as anyone could as best a parent could and I don't think that me saying that's going to bring you any comfort, but I do believe it. >> Thank you. >> Despite her unusual behavior, the detective appears to take Cassie at her word believing she may be genuinely innocent. Her family however remains unconvinced. After wrapping up this and several other family interviews, investigators find themselves between a rock and a hard place. So far there's no concrete evidence that Chrissy or anyone else was involved. In fact, at this stage there's barely enough to definitively prove Isaiah's involvement. So Isaiah remains in jail hoping that with the right lawyer and no further discoveries at the house, he might still be able to walk away scot-free. One week passes before the case finally sees an update, but it's not the one investigators were hoping for. The autopsy results have just come in. According to the coroner, Richard died at his home from a severe knife wound to the neck that resulted in significant blood loss. He also showed signs of blunt force trauma to the head along with bruising around both eyes. His body was then dragged out and later buried in a shallow tarp-wrapped grave at his own shop. But even with these horrific findings, it says little about who was responsible for Richard's [music] death other than suggesting it was someone deeply disturbed. And with every passing day, both detectives and the family begin to fear that the person or people responsible may never face justice. More than two months pass and the case begins to stall. But then investigators catch a break. They receive a major update from the jail where Isaiah is being held. So detectives rush over and meet with one of Isaiah's fellow inmates who has some very interesting information to share. >> We both detectives are mostly here first off we're not here for your case. Uh you're not in trouble or anything like that. It's about a different case that we want to talk to you about. With Isaiah Thomas? How does he act in there? >> Crazy. >> He's kind of out of his mind. >> Yeah. >> What kind of stuff does he do? >> Uh he bangs on the on the door >> Uh-huh. >> and then he starts screaming blood blood blood all night. And he doesn't let us sleep at all. >> Okay. So all night he's he's keeping people up? >> Yeah yeah he is. >> Does he piss people off a lot? >> Yeah he does. [snorts] >> What have you heard as far as I can say he's crazy? >> Uh Well that he killed his grandpa. >> Yeah. >> That he slit his throat open. >> Okay. >> And that before he killed him that he asked him if he believed in God. >> Oh really? >> Yeah. >> What did the What did the grandpa say? >> Uh that he did. >> Okay. >> And then uh he just did it. >> Did he Did he say why he killed the grandpa? >> Uh Oh yeah he was uh gay. His grandpa was >> Oh really? >> Yeah that was since he was a little kid. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> When he killed him was grandpa trying to do something? >> Uh Nah I don't know. >> Was this just he had a thing against him or something? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Sure enough what the inmate describes aligns with key details from the autopsy, particularly the fatal >> Bro grandpa was clapping his son's his grandson's cheeks. Like Oh my goodness, he was clapping his cheeks. >> a wound, but even then, investigators can't be certain. The inmate could be telling the truth or saying whatever he thinks will benefit him in hopes of a reduced sentence. But that uncertainty would soon come to an end with an update from Isaiah himself. Two weeks after speaking with the inmate in early February, Isaiah pleads guilty to second-degree murder and unlawful disposal of human remains. On March 10th, he is sentenced to a maximum of 20 years in prison along with mandatory mental health treatment and no contact orders involving several family members who cooperated with the investigation. As of now, no other family members have been charged with law enforcement ultimately concluding this was a solo actor homicide, dismissing any allegations of parental involvement. And as for the alleged prior homicide, police have so far found no evidence linking Isaiah to any unsolved cases. >> Hey man, if you enjoyed that video, leave a like on that thing, man. But I ain't going to lie, I kind of thought that mama had something to do with it cuz she just knew too much and and the way she was acting, but but dude, man, this grandpa was clapping them cheeks and and and and and man, that's woo, man.
