00:00:02.000 --> 00:00:06.120
High Crime Junkies. I'm your host, Ashley Flowers, and today
2
00:00:06.400 --> 00:00:08.919
I want to tell you about a case that has
3
00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:11.679
stuck with me for years. In two thousand and eight,
4
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:15.160
on a Saturday morning, a man walked into a Lane
5
00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:19.359
Bryant store in Tinley Park, Illinois and held six women
6
00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:24.199
at gunpoint. Five of them were murdered. What's always stood
7
00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:28.239
out about this case is what investigators had almost immediately,
8
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:33.719
a surviving witness, a detailed composite sketch, even the suspect's
9
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:36.719
voice captured on a nine to one one call. But
10
00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:40.960
nearly two decades later, no one has been identified and
11
00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:44.960
all potential leads went cold. Now, I first started looking
12
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.719
into this case for Crime Junkie, and I took to
13
00:00:47.759 --> 00:00:50.560
my socials and asked you all for any information that
14
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:55.200
could help us unravel this mystery. And so many tips
15
00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:58.479
and theories flooded my inbox that instead of answers, it
16
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:01.719
felt like every lead I got just led to more questions.
17
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:05.519
So today I want you to hear how those questions
18
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:10.239
ben led to something bigger. For the newest season of Counterclock,
19
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:13.840
host Dilia Diambra is gonna dig into the Lane Bryant
20
00:01:13.959 --> 00:01:17.719
murders dig into the evidence, the timeline and the details
21
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:20.519
that still don't add up. So I want you to
22
00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:25.400
go and binge every episode of Counterclock season eight, and
23
00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:27.159
then when you're done, you can head back here to
24
00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:31.599
Crime Junkie for more cases every week. Now here is
25
00:01:31.719 --> 00:01:34.359
just a taste of what you're gonna get this season
26
00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:41.680
on Counterclock. It started out as just another day in
27
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:47.439
a popular clothing store, but it ended in a bloody massacre.
28
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:51.840
At deadly shooting rampage at upscale Lane Bryant lady's clothing store.
29
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:57.159
Six women gunned down execution style. The February two thousand
30
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:00.439
and eight Lane Bryant homicides in Timley Park, Illinois are
31
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:03.920
a notorious case that for nearly two decades have looked
32
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:07.760
like one type of crime, but might just be something much,
33
00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:11.520
much bigger. It was like a big jigsaw puzzle and
34
00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:14.840
most of the pieces were upside down. For the last year,
35
00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:17.960
I've been heads down trying to turn every puzzle piece
36
00:02:18.039 --> 00:02:22.360
in this complicated case right side up. The search continues
37
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:22.960
for the gunman.
38
00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:27.039
We in those early days did not know somebody had survived.
39
00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:29.199
We were worried about her safety.
40
00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:32.719
What if this guy has her information? It has all
41
00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:33.479
of our information.
42
00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:38.719
This season on Counterclock, we're going inside a law enforcement
43
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:42.759
investigation that has been locked behind closed doors for years.
44
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.759
None of it made sense, the timing, the.
45
00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:49.719
Target, the victims, and the length of time that he
46
00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:51.000
stayed in the store.
47
00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:55.840
What were you dorm in for forty minutes? The further
48
00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:59.479
and further I dug into this crime, the stranger things got.
49
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:03.919
My reporting led me to some unexpected places. A church
50
00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:08.439
in crisis, a dilapidated mental health center, a notorious street game,
51
00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:15.240
and another violent shooting. Are you familiar with quin protoclo?
52
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:19.879
When you shoot somebody execution style, you've done it before,
53
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:24.560
a lot of things go down because some money. Maybe
54
00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:28.120
it was an inside job. People use church to do
55
00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:33.039
their devilish ways. Buckle up because this story is anything
56
00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:36.719
but straightforward. All of a sudden, I see the police
57
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:43.840
come like filling the neighborhood and coming up my driveway.
58
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:47.800
And we are not going on.
59
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:50.800
Most crimes.
60
00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:53.360
I see that's ten thousand, This was one hundred thousand.
61
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:56.360
Who does not say anything for one hundred thousand.
62
00:03:57.159 --> 00:04:00.360
When we first met and you provide I hadn't you
63
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:01.039
with this information?
64
00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:02.159
And my jaw dropped.
65
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:07.800
I was like Oh my goodness, thank god, you're investigative.
