    Okay, um, basically… the truth of the matter is… me and ****** went to the old college and we got in a big argument and fight… and it was over money that she wouldn't give back to me. It was some change of a $20 bill. She hauled off and punched me. I then… not thinking… pushed her. She fell backwards and her head… when she fell backwards, her head impaled on something sharp sticking out of the ground. I then said: “Are you alright?”. I run over to her and she just mimed a little bit and… there was nothing else. I hollered out for help too cause Holmes Boulevard is right there. Nobody came, nobody yelled back or anything. I didn't want to leave her… I freaked out… I didn’t… I said I don’t know what to tell you all. I couldn’t tell you all. I just freaked. Uh, so I… not thinking… I freaked… I tripped… I just didn't know what to do… I buried her. I didn’t know what to do. It was the wrong thing to do, I agree. But I was 14 years old. I wasn’t thinking. I then… I came home after that, but she was dead. Definitely dead before I buried her. That I know because I checked her stomach and all that. Then after that, I sit therefor about 30 minutes… 30 to 45 minutes… just didn’t know what to do. I went home, I got cleaned up. I regret it, I'm sorry it did happen. I regret pushing her. I wish I could go back in time and not have done that. I wish I could turn time, if I could turn time back, I wouldn’t just… you know. It was all over money… and you know what money will do to you when you’re a kid. I don't know… you were a kid… you had a certain amount of money… the money was valuable to you then, you know. But that's the way it was with me when I was a kid. Every dime I got, I depend on. Because most stuff like that I had to work for.

  • Roger Dean Pt. Two
    Jan 3 2025
    November 21, 1985. Littleton, Colorado. A masked gunman enters the home of 51-year old businessman Roger Dean and forces him to tie up and blindfold his wife, D.J.. After an apparent dispute over money, the gunman fatally shoots Roger and flees the scene, but investigators find evidence to suggest that Roger may have hired the intruder himself in a failed attempt at a kidnapping-robbery scheme. Nearly five years later, D.J. receives an anonymous letter from a man claiming to be Roger’s killer, who threatens to murder her daughter unless she pays him $100,000. Even after he instructs D.J. to drop off the money at a specified location, he does not show up and breaks off all contact. Were the extortionist and Roger Dean’s killer actually the same person? If so, what was his motive for the crime? Did Roger have some dark secrets in his background which led to his death? On this week’s episode of “The Path Went Chilly”, we examine a very bizarre and complex case of murder and extortion.

    In this episode Robin and I (Jules)discuss the case of Tim Molnar, one that was never discussed in full on the Trail Went Cold since there wasn't enough material. This case is baffling and we go round and round (and dive down a Reddit rabbit hole) as to what we think happened.

Great job. I did the math. A person can run a max of 28 mph at peak, so 11 mph is not an unreasonable initial velocity and would not require much run up for an athletic person. Remember, you are not having to jump up, like in long jump competition. With an 11 mph velocity, jumping from a height of 15 floors to land on the second floor is around 150 feet. The math says you would hit the roof at around 49 feet. That's a very rough calculation, but it shows that it was not impossible.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
