JENNIFER WINCHESTER: The only
people, in my opinion,
527
00:37:50,768 --> 00:37:54,104
who know what truly happened
are Brian and Mike.
528
00:37:54,105 --> 00:37:55,481
And Mike's dead.
529
00:37:55,482 --> 00:37:57,983
And Brian said what
he's gonna say.
530
00:37:57,984 --> 00:38:01,236
KATHY: I firmly believe that
there is more to the story
531
00:38:01,237 --> 00:38:03,363
than what Brian has told.

00:38:03,364 --> 00:38:06,075
- The plan with Mike...
533
00:38:08,411 --> 00:38:10,496
KATHY: There was a time
in the past year
534
00:38:10,497 --> 00:38:16,293
that one of my border collies
had been hit by a car
535
00:38:16,294 --> 00:38:17,879
and was killed.
536
00:38:19,964 --> 00:38:23,300
And as I was hitting that
shovel down into the dirt,
537
00:38:23,301 --> 00:38:27,095
I was just thinking to myself
538
00:38:27,096 --> 00:38:31,391
what a difficult task
this was.
539
00:38:31,392 --> 00:38:34,353
It took a lot of strength,
540
00:38:34,354 --> 00:38:39,651
and it took a lot of energy
to bury a 45-pound dog.
541
00:38:41,778 --> 00:38:43,779
BRIAN: The plan with Mike
was that I would
542
00:38:43,780 --> 00:38:45,614
meet him at a gas station--
543
00:38:45,615 --> 00:38:47,783
Early morning over
to Lake Seminole.
544
00:38:47,784 --> 00:38:49,535
Very concerned--
I shot him.
545
00:38:49,536 --> 00:38:51,703
And I was panicking--
In the water.
546
00:38:51,704 --> 00:38:53,330
Ended up
putting him in the back--
547
00:38:53,331 --> 00:38:55,249
I sped back toward
Tallahassee.
548
00:38:55,250 --> 00:38:58,252
KATHY: This was going to
have to be done quickly,
549

watching for others
who may possibly see him.
550
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:04,466
BRIAN: The best thing for me
to do was to go back
551
00:39:04,467 --> 00:39:06,385
to my house, pretend that
I had overslept.
552
00:39:06,386 --> 00:39:09,012
I had to go to--
And I bought a shovel.
553
00:39:09,013 --> 00:39:13,976
Drove to Carr Lake

burying, and having that happen
within a few hours.
557
00:39:27,866 --> 00:39:29,825
BRIAN: Put him there
and covered him up.
558
00:39:29,826 --> 00:39:31,493
And later in my truck,
had blood on it.
559
00:39:31,494 --> 00:39:32,828
