00:00:00.370 --> 00:00:02.669
Hey everybody, it's Emily here and I'd like to tell
2
00:00:02.710 --> 00:00:05.669
you about a new season of Campus Killings brought to
3
00:00:05.690 --> 00:00:09.720
you by Abjack Entertainment. Campus Killings is out right now
4
00:00:09.900 --> 00:00:13.179
with an all-new fifth season and hosts Dr. Megan Sachs
5
00:00:13.320 --> 00:00:16.480
and Dr. Amy Schlossberg are back to discuss a new
6
00:00:16.550 --> 00:00:21.410
set of shocking campus crimes. In every episode of Campus Killings,
7
00:00:21.449 --> 00:00:24.750
Megan and Amy provide details about a case that unfolded
8
00:00:24.890 --> 00:00:27.530
on school grounds, and then they provide their analysis of
9
00:00:27.550 --> 00:00:32.210
the case as both educators and trained criminologists. I'm about
10
00:00:32.250 --> 00:00:34.689
to play a short preview of the first episode from
11
00:00:34.729 --> 00:00:37.770
Season 5, which is the case of Hayley Anderson, a
12
00:00:37.810 --> 00:00:43.109
Binghamton University nursing student who was strangled to death in 2018.
13
00:00:43.109 --> 00:00:46.170
Her killer fled the country in an effort to evade justice.
14
00:00:46.950 --> 00:00:49.280
After listening to this preview, you can head on over
15
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:52.619
and check out the complete episode. We'll leave a link
16
00:00:52.659 --> 00:00:55.380
in the show notes. Thank you for listening to this
17
00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:57.530
special preview of Campus Killings.
18
00:00:57.909 --> 00:01:00.469
To kick off Season 5, we're starting off with a
19
00:01:00.530 --> 00:01:04.519
story that spans two continents and two very different criminal
20
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:09.120
justice systems. In addition to comparative criminal justice systems, it
21
00:01:09.219 --> 00:01:13.599
also covers the important topic of collegiate domestic violence. But
22
00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:15.900
before we get to that, let's take a look at
23
00:01:15.939 --> 00:01:18.579
the campus at the center of today's case, and that
24
00:01:18.620 --> 00:01:23.239
would be Binghamton University. Located on a wooden hillside just
25
00:01:23.340 --> 00:01:27.019
above the Susquehanna River in upstate New York, the university
26
00:01:27.140 --> 00:01:30.379
opened its doors to students in 1946 to serve the
27
00:01:30.420 --> 00:01:34.780
needs of returning World War II veterans. Originally a branch
28
00:01:34.810 --> 00:01:38.670
of Syracuse University, The school was incorporated under the SUNY
29
00:01:38.730 --> 00:01:42.069
umbrella in 1950, and it was one of only two
30
00:01:42.150 --> 00:01:47.019
liberal arts programs under SUNY. By 1955, the school's enrollment
31
00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:49.980
had expanded so much that the ground was broken on
32
00:01:50.019 --> 00:01:53.780
a larger university complex in the town of Vestal, which
33
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:56.799
is right outside the city of Binghamton. And the school
34
00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:00.299
continued growing through the next two decades. In that time,
35
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:03.810
they opened several new colleges within the university, including the
36
00:02:03.849 --> 00:02:07.750
College of Nursing in 1969. and that is where we'll
37
00:02:07.790 --> 00:02:10.789
be putting our focus today. Now, the program is quite
38
00:02:10.889 --> 00:02:14.050
renowned in the field with a very limited acceptance rate
39
00:02:14.150 --> 00:02:18.289
and an incredibly high post-graduation employment rate. So it was
40
00:02:18.349 --> 00:02:21.770
no surprise that when aspiring nursing student Haley Anderson was
41
00:02:21.789 --> 00:02:25.379
looking at schools, she would end up at Binghamton. Actually,
42
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:27.759
Haley grew up in Long Island as well. So she
43
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:31.539
was born in 1995 and grew up in Salisbury. So
44
00:02:31.580 --> 00:02:34.080
she grew up with her parents and younger sister, And
45
00:02:34.099 --> 00:02:38.259
Haley was reportedly exceptionally close with her mom. As she
46
00:02:38.300 --> 00:02:40.780
ended her high school career and began looking at colleges,
47
00:02:40.979 --> 00:02:43.860
she just wasn't sure what she wanted to do. But
48
00:02:43.979 --> 00:02:45.780
the one thing she was sure about was that she
49
00:02:45.819 --> 00:02:49.139
wanted to go to Binghamton University. And her mother recalled
50
00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:51.139
that as soon as they stepped on the campus, Haley
51
00:02:51.219 --> 00:02:54.490
fell in love with it. She went in undecided, focusing
52
00:02:54.539 --> 00:02:56.990
on making friends, you know, just kind of finding her
53
00:02:57.050 --> 00:03:00.490
footing and soaking in the college experience. But by the
54
00:03:00.550 --> 00:03:02.750
end of her freshman year, she figured out her future.
55
00:03:03.300 --> 00:03:06.069
She loved helping people, and she also wanted to travel,
56
00:03:06.449 --> 00:03:09.169
so she decided to major in nursing with the goal
57
00:03:09.229 --> 00:03:12.490
of becoming a traveling nurse. She figured this would allow
58
00:03:12.550 --> 00:03:15.069
her to see the whole United States while also bringing
59
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:19.039
medical and emotional support to her patients. She applied to
60
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:21.539
the nursing program at the beginning of her sophomore year,
61
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:24.759
and her family was ecstatic when she was accepted. And
62
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:27.210
it wasn't long into her new path that Haley also
63
00:03:27.270 --> 00:03:31.050
found love. Kevin Ocampo was a fellow nursing student and
64
00:03:31.069 --> 00:03:34.250
the two bonded over their academics and their dedication to nursing.
65
00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:37.500
But while Haley loved him fiercely, she was still a
66
00:03:37.539 --> 00:03:39.879
free spirit and she had her own plans for what
67
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:43.099
her life would look like after graduation. And her plans
68
00:03:43.139 --> 00:03:46.080
did not involve settling down. She also didn't want to
69
00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:49.310
be tied into a monogamous relationship at such a young age.
70
00:03:50.110 --> 00:03:53.129
Despite loving Kevin, she just wanted to experiment and live
71
00:03:53.169 --> 00:03:56.659
life on her own terms. And Kevin respected this, and
72
00:03:56.699 --> 00:04:00.219
while they had an on-again, off-again dating relationship, they remained
73
00:04:00.300 --> 00:04:03.360
friends even when Haley started dating other people. He was
74
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:06.740
happy to wait for her, and he felt confident that
75
00:04:06.780 --> 00:04:08.500
she would make her way back to him when she
76
00:04:08.539 --> 00:04:12.210
was ready, which is super sweet. I would say, like, confident,
77
00:04:12.219 --> 00:04:16.170
comfortable with yourself. Yes. But little did either of them
78
00:04:16.230 --> 00:04:18.769
know that one of their mutual friends would end any
79
00:04:18.829 --> 00:04:22.930
possible future that Kevin and Haley might have had. In
80
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:26.329
the spring of 2017, while Haley was attending a party
81
00:04:26.389 --> 00:04:30.889
at Kevin's apartment, she met another nursing student named Orlando Tercero.
82
00:04:32.230 --> 00:04:36.579
A first-generation American, Orlando's family had immigrated from Nicaragua to
83
00:04:36.620 --> 00:04:40.560
Miami in the 1990s. And while Orlando had been born
84
00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:43.459
in the U.S., he had been raised in Nicaragua, held
85
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:47.480
dual citizenship between the countries, and had several family members there.
86
00:04:49.069 --> 00:04:51.449
Haley found him easy to talk to, and she invited
87
00:04:51.490 --> 00:04:53.529
him to hang out with her and Kevin, to which
88
00:04:53.610 --> 00:04:55.920
Kevin discovered that he also had a lot in common
89
00:04:55.959 --> 00:05:00.360
with Orlando. They soon became best friends, and Kevin even
90
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:05.079
helped Orlando become a member of his fraternity. But unbeknownst
91
00:05:05.100 --> 00:05:07.560
to Kevin, there was something else that they both shared,
92
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:10.899
and that would be a love for Kevin's girlfriend. And
93
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:14.370
over the summer of 2017, while Haley and Kevin were
94
00:05:14.490 --> 00:05:17.170
on a romantic break, Orlando made a pass at Haley.
95
00:05:18.620 --> 00:05:21.600
Haley had always found Orlando attractive, so she initiated a
96
00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:25.579
friends-with-benefits situation and made it emphatically clear that she was
97
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:28.480
not interested in a monogamous relationship and that she did
98
00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:31.699
not want to be his girlfriend. I suspect this is
99
00:05:31.740 --> 00:05:34.560
going to be a problem. Yeah, I mean, at first
100
00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:38.250
Orlando seemed to respect her wishes, but Haley's friends later
101
00:05:38.290 --> 00:05:41.250
recalled that he often pressured her for a serious relationship.
102
00:05:42.170 --> 00:05:45.129
Did Kevin know about the situation between Haley and Orlando
103
00:05:45.350 --> 00:05:48.519
as well? While I mentioned it seemed that Kevin respected
104
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:51.360
Haley's desire to play the field when they weren't together,
105
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:54.319
he was certainly not okay with his best friends being
106
00:05:54.379 --> 00:05:57.470
one of the people that she hung around with. So
107
00:05:57.509 --> 00:06:00.689
their friendship did dissolve, and the fraternity brothers believed that
108
00:06:00.730 --> 00:06:04.370
Orlando had broken the so-called bro code by moving in
109
00:06:04.430 --> 00:06:07.610
on Kevin's girlfriend, even though they weren't together at the time.
110
00:06:08.490 --> 00:06:11.670
And I think when he got kicked out of his fraternity,
111
00:06:11.810 --> 00:06:15.589
that's when the situation got even more complicated. As the
112
00:06:15.629 --> 00:06:19.500
months went on, Haley and Orlando's situation became tumultuous. Their
113
00:06:19.540 --> 00:06:22.360
friends told 48 Hours that sometimes they seemed like the
114
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:25.360
best of friends, hanging out and laughing together, and then
115
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:28.579
other times they bickered horrendously and would suddenly keep their
116
00:06:28.620 --> 00:06:34.060
distance from each other. Orlando would show some disturbing behaviors. Then,
117
00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:37.850
in the fall of 2017, things got even more complicated
118
00:06:37.930 --> 00:06:40.389
because Haley and Kevin decided to get back together. Oh
119
00:06:41.230 --> 00:06:42.170
my gosh, okay.
120
00:06:42.769 --> 00:06:42.930
Yeah.
121
00:06:44.470 --> 00:06:47.269
Orlando saw them at a party together and reportedly got
122
00:06:47.329 --> 00:06:51.009
very upset and he left abruptly. It's unclear if Haley
123
00:06:51.060 --> 00:06:53.839
and Kevin were aware that Orlando spotted them that night,
124
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:57.180
but the couple woke up the next morning to find
125
00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:01.819
that someone had slashed Haley's car tires. On the morning
126
00:07:01.860 --> 00:07:05.569
of March 8th of 2018, Haley's roommates woke up to
127
00:07:05.610 --> 00:07:08.769
find that Haley wasn't in the apartment. On the one hand,
128
00:07:08.790 --> 00:07:11.610
it wasn't really a cause for alarm. Haley often did
129
00:07:11.649 --> 00:07:14.199
her own thing. However, her friends did find it a
130
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:16.819
little odd that she had left so early since they'd
131
00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:19.819
been up late having a fun wine and board game night.
132
00:07:20.779 --> 00:07:23.279
But despite her absence feeling a little weird, they went
133
00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:25.800
about their day and figured they'd see her at her
134
00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:29.360
best friend's poetry slam that evening. But Haley never arrived
135
00:07:29.420 --> 00:07:32.079
at the poetry reading. And when she then didn't answer
136
00:07:32.139 --> 00:07:34.389
texts or phone calls, her friends began to feel that
137
00:07:34.449 --> 00:07:38.670
something was very wrong. By late morning on March 9th,
138
00:07:38.810 --> 00:07:41.389
which is now 24 hours with no word from Haley,
139
00:07:42.129 --> 00:07:46.230
her friends were desperate to make sure that she was okay. Luckily,
140
00:07:46.269 --> 00:07:48.490
they had all been sharing their location on the Find
141
00:07:48.509 --> 00:07:51.569
My Friend app, and when they checked, Haley's icon was
142
00:07:51.649 --> 00:07:54.610
hovering over an address just down the street from her apartment.
143
00:07:55.189 --> 00:07:57.329
You want to guess where the phone was? Is this
144
00:07:57.389 --> 00:08:01.259
at Orlando's house? That is correct. So they went to
145
00:08:01.300 --> 00:08:04.800
his door immediately, but nobody answered when they knocked. But
146
00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:07.439
they knew that Haley's phone at least was inside, so
147
00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:09.860
they found an unlocked window on the first floor and
148
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:14.600
they climbed through. Orlando was very clearly not in the apartment,
149
00:08:15.019 --> 00:08:18.170
but when Haley's friends carefully turned into the bedroom, they
150
00:08:18.230 --> 00:08:21.189
found Haley lying in an unnatural position on the bed.
151
00:08:22.149 --> 00:08:25.009
Clearly not just sleeping, it was clear that something was wrong.
152
00:08:25.850 --> 00:08:30.810
And she was also unresponsive, so they immediately called 911. Tragically,
153
00:08:30.870 --> 00:08:33.990
Haley was deceased long before her friends had arrived, and
154
00:08:34.029 --> 00:08:36.889
it was quickly clear to investigators that somebody had killed her.
155
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:40.909
Was she strangled? Yes, unfortunately she was. There was visible
156
00:08:40.970 --> 00:08:44.190
bruising on her neck and arms and petechial hemorrhages on
157
00:08:44.230 --> 00:08:46.809
her face, all of which, as you know, are consistent
158
00:08:46.850 --> 00:08:52.230
with manual strangulation. Now, as investigators began assessing the scene,
159
00:08:52.350 --> 00:08:55.570
they found a necktie that had been threaded through three
160
00:08:55.629 --> 00:08:58.409
metal eye loops attached to the top of a doorframe.
161
00:08:59.009 --> 00:09:01.620
A bookshelf was knocked over, and a garbage can in
162
00:09:01.649 --> 00:09:04.740
the kitchen was filled with gauze pad wrappers and blood-soaked
163
00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:08.490
paper towels. Then they also found a note written in
164
00:09:08.549 --> 00:09:12.669
Spanish that translated to, quote, I'm really sorry about this.
165
00:09:12.929 --> 00:09:15.889
I never felt I could be capable of doing this. Father,
166
00:09:16.009 --> 00:09:19.000
I'll see you soon. I'm sorry. This is stupid. I'm sorry.
167
00:09:20.100 --> 00:09:22.360
For detectives, this was a pretty cut and dry scene.
168
00:09:22.580 --> 00:09:25.960
Orlando had strangled Haley, regretted his actions and tried to
169
00:09:26.019 --> 00:09:29.220
die by suicide by hanging himself with the necktie from
170
00:09:29.259 --> 00:09:32.600
the doorframe. But he had apparently failed, and based off
171
00:09:32.620 --> 00:09:35.440
the bloody bandage wrappers, he had probably hurt himself and
172
00:09:35.460 --> 00:09:36.570
then decided to flee.
173
00:09:36.690 --> 00:09:36.870
Right.
174
00:09:37.570 --> 00:09:39.690
But the big question is, where was he now?
1
00:00:00.370 --> 00:00:02.669
Hey everybody, it's Emily here and I'd like to tell
2
00:00:02.710 --> 00:00:05.669
you about a new season of Campus Killings brought to
3
00:00:05.690 --> 00:00:09.720
you by Abjack Entertainment. Campus Killings is out right now
4
00:00:09.900 --> 00:00:13.179
with an all-new fifth season and hosts Dr. Megan Sachs
5
00:00:13.320 --> 00:00:16.480
and Dr. Amy Schlossberg are back to discuss a new
6
00:00:16.550 --> 00:00:21.410
set of shocking campus crimes. In every episode of Campus Killings,
7
00:00:21.449 --> 00:00:24.750
Megan and Amy provide details about a case that unfolded
8
00:00:24.890 --> 00:00:27.530
on school grounds, and then they provide their analysis of
9
00:00:27.550 --> 00:00:32.210
the case as both educators and trained criminologists. I'm about
10
00:00:32.250 --> 00:00:34.689
to play a short preview of the first episode from
11
00:00:34.729 --> 00:00:37.770
Season 5, which is the case of Hayley Anderson, a
12
00:00:37.810 --> 00:00:43.109
Binghamton University nursing student who was strangled to death in 2018.
13
00:00:43.109 --> 00:00:46.170
Her killer fled the country in an effort to evade justice.
14
00:00:46.950 --> 00:00:49.280
After listening to this preview, you can head on over
15
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:52.619
and check out the complete episode. We'll leave a link
16
00:00:52.659 --> 00:00:55.380
in the show notes. Thank you for listening to this
17
00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:57.530
special preview of Campus Killings.
18
00:00:57.909 --> 00:01:00.469
To kick off Season 5, we're starting off with a
19
00:01:00.530 --> 00:01:04.519
story that spans two continents and two very different criminal
20
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:09.120
justice systems. In addition to comparative criminal justice systems, it
21
00:01:09.219 --> 00:01:13.599
also covers the important topic of collegiate domestic violence. But
22
00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:15.900
before we get to that, let's take a look at
23
00:01:15.939 --> 00:01:18.579
the campus at the center of today's case, and that
24
00:01:18.620 --> 00:01:23.239
would be Binghamton University. Located on a wooden hillside just
25
00:01:23.340 --> 00:01:27.019
above the Susquehanna River in upstate New York, the university
26
00:01:27.140 --> 00:01:30.379
opened its doors to students in 1946 to serve the
27
00:01:30.420 --> 00:01:34.780
needs of returning World War II veterans. Originally a branch
28
00:01:34.810 --> 00:01:38.670
of Syracuse University, The school was incorporated under the SUNY
29
00:01:38.730 --> 00:01:42.069
umbrella in 1950, and it was one of only two
30
00:01:42.150 --> 00:01:47.019
liberal arts programs under SUNY. By 1955, the school's enrollment
31
00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:49.980
had expanded so much that the ground was broken on
32
00:01:50.019 --> 00:01:53.780
a larger university complex in the town of Vestal, which
33
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:56.799
is right outside the city of Binghamton. And the school
34
00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:00.299
continued growing through the next two decades. In that time,
35
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:03.810
they opened several new colleges within the university, including the
36
00:02:03.849 --> 00:02:07.750
College of Nursing in 1969. and that is where we'll
37
00:02:07.790 --> 00:02:10.789
be putting our focus today. Now, the program is quite
38
00:02:10.889 --> 00:02:14.050
renowned in the field with a very limited acceptance rate
39
00:02:14.150 --> 00:02:18.289
and an incredibly high post-graduation employment rate. So it was
40
00:02:18.349 --> 00:02:21.770
no surprise that when aspiring nursing student Haley Anderson was
41
00:02:21.789 --> 00:02:25.379
looking at schools, she would end up at Binghamton. Actually,
42
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:27.759
Haley grew up in Long Island as well. So she
43
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:31.539
was born in 1995 and grew up in Salisbury. So
44
00:02:31.580 --> 00:02:34.080
she grew up with her parents and younger sister, And
45
00:02:34.099 --> 00:02:38.259
Haley was reportedly exceptionally close with her mom. As she
46
00:02:38.300 --> 00:02:40.780
ended her high school career and began looking at colleges,
47
00:02:40.979 --> 00:02:43.860
she just wasn't sure what she wanted to do. But
48
00:02:43.979 --> 00:02:45.780
the one thing she was sure about was that she
49
00:02:45.819 --> 00:02:49.139
wanted to go to Binghamton University. And her mother recalled
50
00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:51.139
that as soon as they stepped on the campus, Haley
51
00:02:51.219 --> 00:02:54.490
fell in love with it. She went in undecided, focusing
52
00:02:54.539 --> 00:02:56.990
on making friends, you know, just kind of finding her
53
00:02:57.050 --> 00:03:00.490
footing and soaking in the college experience. But by the
54
00:03:00.550 --> 00:03:02.750
end of her freshman year, she figured out her future.
55
00:03:03.300 --> 00:03:06.069
She loved helping people, and she also wanted to travel,
56
00:03:06.449 --> 00:03:09.169
so she decided to major in nursing with the goal
57
00:03:09.229 --> 00:03:12.490
of becoming a traveling nurse. She figured this would allow
58
00:03:12.550 --> 00:03:15.069
her to see the whole United States while also bringing
59
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:19.039
medical and emotional support to her patients. She applied to
60
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:21.539
the nursing program at the beginning of her sophomore year,
61
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:24.759
and her family was ecstatic when she was accepted. And
62
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:27.210
it wasn't long into her new path that Haley also
63
00:03:27.270 --> 00:03:31.050
found love. Kevin Ocampo was a fellow nursing student and
64
00:03:31.069 --> 00:03:34.250
the two bonded over their academics and their dedication to nursing.
65
00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:37.500
But while Haley loved him fiercely, she was still a
66
00:03:37.539 --> 00:03:39.879
free spirit and she had her own plans for what
67
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:43.099
her life would look like after graduation. And her plans
68
00:03:43.139 --> 00:03:46.080
did not involve settling down. She also didn't want to
69
00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:49.310
be tied into a monogamous relationship at such a young age.
70
00:03:50.110 --> 00:03:53.129
Despite loving Kevin, she just wanted to experiment and live
71
00:03:53.169 --> 00:03:56.659
life on her own terms. And Kevin respected this, and
72
00:03:56.699 --> 00:04:00.219
while they had an on-again, off-again dating relationship, they remained
73
00:04:00.300 --> 00:04:03.360
friends even when Haley started dating other people. He was
74
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:06.740
happy to wait for her, and he felt confident that
75
00:04:06.780 --> 00:04:08.500
she would make her way back to him when she
76
00:04:08.539 --> 00:04:12.210
was ready, which is super sweet. I would say, like, confident,
77
00:04:12.219 --> 00:04:16.170
comfortable with yourself. Yes. But little did either of them
78
00:04:16.230 --> 00:04:18.769
know that one of their mutual friends would end any
79
00:04:18.829 --> 00:04:22.930
possible future that Kevin and Haley might have had. In
80
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:26.329
the spring of 2017, while Haley was attending a party
81
00:04:26.389 --> 00:04:30.889
at Kevin's apartment, she met another nursing student named Orlando Tercero.
82
00:04:32.230 --> 00:04:36.579
A first-generation American, Orlando's family had immigrated from Nicaragua to
83
00:04:36.620 --> 00:04:40.560
Miami in the 1990s. And while Orlando had been born
84
00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:43.459
in the U.S., he had been raised in Nicaragua, held
85
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:47.480
dual citizenship between the countries, and had several family members there.
86
00:04:49.069 --> 00:04:51.449
Haley found him easy to talk to, and she invited
87
00:04:51.490 --> 00:04:53.529
him to hang out with her and Kevin, to which
88
00:04:53.610 --> 00:04:55.920
Kevin discovered that he also had a lot in common
89
00:04:55.959 --> 00:05:00.360
with Orlando. They soon became best friends, and Kevin even
90
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:05.079
helped Orlando become a member of his fraternity. But unbeknownst
91
00:05:05.100 --> 00:05:07.560
to Kevin, there was something else that they both shared,
92
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:10.899
and that would be a love for Kevin's girlfriend. And
93
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:14.370
over the summer of 2017, while Haley and Kevin were
94
00:05:14.490 --> 00:05:17.170
on a romantic break, Orlando made a pass at Haley.
95
00:05:18.620 --> 00:05:21.600
Haley had always found Orlando attractive, so she initiated a
96
00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:25.579
friends-with-benefits situation and made it emphatically clear that she was
97
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:28.480
not interested in a monogamous relationship and that she did
98
00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:31.699
not want to be his girlfriend. I suspect this is
99
00:05:31.740 --> 00:05:34.560
going to be a problem. Yeah, I mean, at first
100
00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:38.250
Orlando seemed to respect her wishes, but Haley's friends later
101
00:05:38.290 --> 00:05:41.250
recalled that he often pressured her for a serious relationship.
102
00:05:42.170 --> 00:05:45.129
Did Kevin know about the situation between Haley and Orlando
103
00:05:45.350 --> 00:05:48.519
as well? While I mentioned it seemed that Kevin respected
104
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:51.360
Haley's desire to play the field when they weren't together,
105
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:54.319
he was certainly not okay with his best friends being
106
00:05:54.379 --> 00:05:57.470
one of the people that she hung around with. So
107
00:05:57.509 --> 00:06:00.689
their friendship did dissolve, and the fraternity brothers believed that
108
00:06:00.730 --> 00:06:04.370
Orlando had broken the so-called bro code by moving in
109
00:06:04.430 --> 00:06:07.610
on Kevin's girlfriend, even though they weren't together at the time.
110
00:06:08.490 --> 00:06:11.670
And I think when he got kicked out of his fraternity,
111
00:06:11.810 --> 00:06:15.589
that's when the situation got even more complicated. As the
112
00:06:15.629 --> 00:06:19.500
months went on, Haley and Orlando's situation became tumultuous. Their
113
00:06:19.540 --> 00:06:22.360
friends told 48 Hours that sometimes they seemed like the
114
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:25.360
best of friends, hanging out and laughing together, and then
115
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:28.579
other times they bickered horrendously and would suddenly keep their
116
00:06:28.620 --> 00:06:34.060
distance from each other. Orlando would show some disturbing behaviors. Then,
117
00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:37.850
in the fall of 2017, things got even more complicated
118
00:06:37.930 --> 00:06:40.389
because Haley and Kevin decided to get back together. Oh
119
00:06:41.230 --> 00:06:42.170
my gosh, okay.
120
00:06:42.769 --> 00:06:42.930
Yeah.
121
00:06:44.470 --> 00:06:47.269
Orlando saw them at a party together and reportedly got
122
00:06:47.329 --> 00:06:51.009
very upset and he left abruptly. It's unclear if Haley
123
00:06:51.060 --> 00:06:53.839
and Kevin were aware that Orlando spotted them that night,
124
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:57.180
but the couple woke up the next morning to find
125
00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:01.819
that someone had slashed Haley's car tires. On the morning
126
00:07:01.860 --> 00:07:05.569
of March 8th of 2018, Haley's roommates woke up to
127
00:07:05.610 --> 00:07:08.769
find that Haley wasn't in the apartment. On the one hand,
128
00:07:08.790 --> 00:07:11.610
it wasn't really a cause for alarm. Haley often did
129
00:07:11.649 --> 00:07:14.199
her own thing. However, her friends did find it a
130
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:16.819
little odd that she had left so early since they'd
131
00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:19.819
been up late having a fun wine and board game night.
132
00:07:20.779 --> 00:07:23.279
But despite her absence feeling a little weird, they went
133
00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:25.800
about their day and figured they'd see her at her
134
00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:29.360
best friend's poetry slam that evening. But Haley never arrived
135
00:07:29.420 --> 00:07:32.079
at the poetry reading. And when she then didn't answer
136
00:07:32.139 --> 00:07:34.389
texts or phone calls, her friends began to feel that
137
00:07:34.449 --> 00:07:38.670
something was very wrong. By late morning on March 9th,
138
00:07:38.810 --> 00:07:41.389
which is now 24 hours with no word from Haley,
139
00:07:42.129 --> 00:07:46.230
her friends were desperate to make sure that she was okay. Luckily,
140
00:07:46.269 --> 00:07:48.490
they had all been sharing their location on the Find
141
00:07:48.509 --> 00:07:51.569
My Friend app, and when they checked, Haley's icon was
142
00:07:51.649 --> 00:07:54.610
hovering over an address just down the street from her apartment.
143
00:07:55.189 --> 00:07:57.329
You want to guess where the phone was? Is this
144
00:07:57.389 --> 00:08:01.259
at Orlando's house? That is correct. So they went to
145
00:08:01.300 --> 00:08:04.800
his door immediately, but nobody answered when they knocked. But
146
00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:07.439
they knew that Haley's phone at least was inside, so
147
00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:09.860
they found an unlocked window on the first floor and
148
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:14.600
they climbed through. Orlando was very clearly not in the apartment,
149
00:08:15.019 --> 00:08:18.170
but when Haley's friends carefully turned into the bedroom, they
150
00:08:18.230 --> 00:08:21.189
found Haley lying in an unnatural position on the bed.
151
00:08:22.149 --> 00:08:25.009
Clearly not just sleeping, it was clear that something was wrong.
152
00:08:25.850 --> 00:08:30.810
And she was also unresponsive, so they immediately called 911. Tragically,
153
00:08:30.870 --> 00:08:33.990
Haley was deceased long before her friends had arrived, and
154
00:08:34.029 --> 00:08:36.889
it was quickly clear to investigators that somebody had killed her.
155
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:40.909
Was she strangled? Yes, unfortunately she was. There was visible
156
00:08:40.970 --> 00:08:44.190
bruising on her neck and arms and petechial hemorrhages on
157
00:08:44.230 --> 00:08:46.809
her face, all of which, as you know, are consistent
158
00:08:46.850 --> 00:08:52.230
with manual strangulation. Now, as investigators began assessing the scene,
159
00:08:52.350 --> 00:08:55.570
they found a necktie that had been threaded through three
160
00:08:55.629 --> 00:08:58.409
metal eye loops attached to the top of a doorframe.
161
00:08:59.009 --> 00:09:01.620
A bookshelf was knocked over, and a garbage can in
162
00:09:01.649 --> 00:09:04.740
the kitchen was filled with gauze pad wrappers and blood-soaked
163
00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:08.490
paper towels. Then they also found a note written in
164
00:09:08.549 --> 00:09:12.669
Spanish that translated to, quote, I'm really sorry about this.
165
00:09:12.929 --> 00:09:15.889
I never felt I could be capable of doing this. Father,
166
00:09:16.009 --> 00:09:19.000
I'll see you soon. I'm sorry. This is stupid. I'm sorry.
167
00:09:20.100 --> 00:09:22.360
For detectives, this was a pretty cut and dry scene.
168
00:09:22.580 --> 00:09:25.960
Orlando had strangled Haley, regretted his actions and tried to
169
00:09:26.019 --> 00:09:29.220
die by suicide by hanging himself with the necktie from
170
00:09:29.259 --> 00:09:32.600
the doorframe. But he had apparently failed, and based off
171
00:09:32.620 --> 00:09:35.440
the bloody bandage wrappers, he had probably hurt himself and
172
00:09:35.460 --> 00:09:36.570
then decided to flee.
173
00:09:36.690 --> 00:09:36.870
Right.
174
00:09:37.570 --> 00:09:39.690
But the big question is, where was he now?
