1
00:00:03,044 --> 00:00:06,214
[water splashing]
2
00:00:07,716 --> 00:00:09,801
- This guy's literally
bigger than life.
3
00:00:09,843 --> 00:00:12,095
- Jimmy was outgoing.
4
00:00:12,137 --> 00:00:13,805
People were just drawn to him.
5
00:00:13,847 --> 00:00:15,598
- He was involved
with the wrong people.
6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,726
- When you owe money to
the mob, you've got a problem.
7
00:00:22,772 --> 00:00:25,608
- She says, "Are you gonna
kill me? Am I gonna die?"
8
00:00:25,650 --> 00:00:28,236
And he says,
"No, you're too pretty to die."
9
00:00:29,571 --> 00:00:30,530
- They were there
for one reason,
10
00:00:30,572 --> 00:00:32,699
and one reason only.
11
00:00:32,741 --> 00:00:36,369
- You've got a cold-blooded
execution-style murder.
12
00:00:36,411 --> 00:00:39,581
- They're trying to send
a message to somebody.
13
00:00:39,622 --> 00:00:43,168
- This wave of organized
crime violence.
14
00:00:43,209 --> 00:00:44,586
This one of those cases
I'll never forget.
15
00:00:44,627 --> 00:00:46,504
I mean, it had so many
twists and turns.
16
00:00:46,546 --> 00:00:50,133
- It's such a serious crime
and then it goes cold again.
17
00:00:50,175 --> 00:00:52,719
- It was really hard
waiting to find out
18
00:00:52,761 --> 00:00:54,554
what had happened to Jimmy.
19
00:00:54,596 --> 00:00:56,556
- The case goes cold
for 30 years.
20
00:00:56,598 --> 00:00:58,558
And then I get a phone call
21
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,226
from the Orange County
DA's office saying that
22
00:01:00,268 --> 00:01:01,644
they have somebody in custody.
23
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,116
[dramatic music]
24
00:01:15,158 --> 00:01:22,123
* *
25
00:01:26,711 --> 00:01:29,714
[peaceful music]
26
00:01:29,756 --> 00:01:31,883
* *
27
00:01:31,925 --> 00:01:33,718
- You've got a wide variety
28
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,721
of culture and life
here in Orange County.
29
00:01:36,763 --> 00:01:38,264
Little bit of
"Lifestyle Rich and Famous"
30
00:01:38,306 --> 00:01:39,641
down by the beaches.
31
00:01:39,683 --> 00:01:41,267
- Where else
can you have the ocean
32
00:01:41,309 --> 00:01:42,519
30 minutes away from you,
33
00:01:43,645 --> 00:01:44,604
or the mountains
30 minutes away from you?
34
00:01:45,689 --> 00:01:47,482
You can go skiing
in the morning,
35
00:01:47,524 --> 00:01:49,359
surfing in the afternoon.
36
00:01:49,401 --> 00:01:52,445
- The city of Buena Park,
there's a different vibe.
37
00:01:52,487 --> 00:01:53,905
It's a little bit nicer,
38
00:01:53,947 --> 00:01:56,533
the buildings
are a little bit newer.
39
00:01:56,574 --> 00:01:59,160
- Nestled between
the blue Pacific waters
40
00:01:59,202 --> 00:02:01,287
and the San Bernardino
mountains
41
00:02:01,329 --> 00:02:04,290
sits Buena Park,
an amusement destination
42
00:02:04,332 --> 00:02:07,711
that draws millions
to Orange County every year.
43
00:02:07,752 --> 00:02:09,879
- In the '80s,
44
00:02:09,921 --> 00:02:14,718
was a big party spot
and really a lot of fun.
45
00:02:17,679 --> 00:02:20,348
- It's a place that's happy.
46
00:02:22,267 --> 00:02:24,769
- The good times
come to a grinding halt
47
00:02:24,811 --> 00:02:28,356
for one high-rolling
Buena Park couple
48
00:02:28,398 --> 00:02:31,443
shortly after ringing in 1987.
49
00:03:05,685 --> 00:03:07,854
- My name is Robin Lindley
50
00:03:07,896 --> 00:03:10,273
and in 1987,
51
00:03:10,315 --> 00:03:11,858
I was a crime scene
investigator
52
00:03:11,900 --> 00:03:13,693
for the Buena Park
Police Department.
53
00:03:13,735 --> 00:03:16,404
On January 2nd that year,
54
00:03:16,446 --> 00:03:18,656
I got a call
right after midnight.
55
00:03:18,698 --> 00:03:21,534
We were the first homicide
in the county that year
56
00:03:21,576 --> 00:03:24,412
and I was called out
to a location in Buena Tierra.
57
00:03:24,454 --> 00:03:25,789
I was a little nervous
58
00:03:25,830 --> 00:03:29,292
because it was my first
big case in Buena Park.
59
00:03:29,334 --> 00:03:30,669
The condo was located
in the northern end
60
00:03:31,836 --> 00:03:33,630
of Buena Park, which is
the upper scale area.
61
00:03:33,672 --> 00:03:34,923
When I arrived at the scene,
62
00:03:34,964 --> 00:03:37,842
we had a victim there
that was still alive.
63
00:03:37,884 --> 00:03:39,761
The victim, Shelly,
was very distraught,
64
00:03:39,803 --> 00:03:42,430
very upset,
which is understandable.
65
00:03:42,472 --> 00:03:44,974
She was very concerned
about the other victim.
66
00:03:45,016 --> 00:03:47,435
She did say that that was
her boyfriend, Jimmy Casino.
67
00:03:49,771 --> 00:03:51,439
When the officer
that had arrived first
68
00:03:52,732 --> 00:03:53,817
who was in charge of the scene
took me into the house,
69
00:03:54,859 --> 00:03:56,903
you could see the house
was disheveled
70
00:03:56,945 --> 00:03:59,322
and had been ransacked.
71
00:03:59,364 --> 00:04:01,574
He guided me upstairs
to where the other victim
72
00:04:01,616 --> 00:04:04,411
was laying upstairs
in the hallway, dead,
73
00:04:04,452 --> 00:04:06,663
and then pointed out
where the bedroom was
74
00:04:06,705 --> 00:04:10,709
where the other attack
had taken place.
75
00:04:10,750 --> 00:04:12,752
And the first thing
to go through my mind is
76
00:04:12,794 --> 00:04:14,337
what things can I print?
77
00:04:14,379 --> 00:04:16,756
Where would they
leave fingerprints?
78
00:04:16,798 --> 00:04:19,300
That's the areas I want to
look at and cordon off
79
00:04:19,342 --> 00:04:21,052
and make sure
they're preserved
80
00:04:21,094 --> 00:04:22,595
so that when
I go through processing,
81
00:04:22,637 --> 00:04:25,306
we make sure
we have all those things.
82
00:04:25,348 --> 00:04:27,767
It looked like somebody
had moved the victim.
83
00:04:27,809 --> 00:04:30,979
We had blood stain
on the cabinets.
84
00:04:31,021 --> 00:04:32,605
We took photographs of that
85
00:04:32,647 --> 00:04:34,649
and marked measurements
of those
86
00:04:34,691 --> 00:04:36,943
so we could kind of determine
where and how he was seated
87
00:04:36,985 --> 00:04:38,570
when he was actually killed.
88
00:04:40,447 --> 00:04:42,741
There was one bullet
casing found upstairs.
89
00:04:42,782 --> 00:04:45,118
It was a .22 bullet casing.
90
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,454
Once you find evidence
you mark it,
91
00:04:47,495 --> 00:04:49,414
and you photograph it.
92
00:04:49,456 --> 00:04:50,999
We tried to collect evidence
93
00:04:51,041 --> 00:04:54,419
knowing that it has
to be preserved
94
00:04:54,461 --> 00:04:55,962
'cause we didn't
know about DNA.
95
00:04:56,004 --> 00:04:58,465
All we knew about
was fingerprinting
96
00:04:58,506 --> 00:05:00,383
and maybe trace evidence.
97
00:05:00,425 --> 00:05:03,511
So you had to make sure that
everything was done properly.
98
00:05:04,637 --> 00:05:06,056
- I'm Sharon Katchen,
99
00:05:06,097 --> 00:05:08,683
and I covered
the Orange County Bureau
100
00:05:08,725 --> 00:05:12,687
for KFWB for 20 years.
101
00:05:12,729 --> 00:05:14,981
On one side, it looked like
it was a robbery.
102
00:05:15,023 --> 00:05:16,900
These guys took everything
103
00:05:16,941 --> 00:05:18,818
they could get their hands on
that was of value.
104
00:05:18,860 --> 00:05:21,404
They took money.
They took credit cards.
105
00:05:21,446 --> 00:05:22,864
They stole two cars.
106
00:05:22,906 --> 00:05:25,492
They stole the Mercedes
and the Camaro.
107
00:05:25,533 --> 00:05:27,660
They left the Rolls Royce
in the garage.
108
00:05:27,702 --> 00:05:29,621
Once police talked to Shelly,
109
00:05:29,662 --> 00:05:31,998
they established which cars
were taken,
110
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,918
they put out an
All-Points Bulletin for them.
111
00:05:36,461 --> 00:05:38,880
- My name is Robert Sayne.
112
00:05:38,922 --> 00:05:41,508
And in 1987
I was a police sergeant
113
00:05:41,549 --> 00:05:43,468
for the Santa Ana
Police Department.
114
00:05:43,510 --> 00:05:44,636
As far as taking the cars,
115
00:05:44,678 --> 00:05:46,054
I think it was
a matter of convenience.
116
00:05:46,096 --> 00:05:48,848
They obviously
were dropped off there,
117
00:05:48,890 --> 00:05:52,560
'cause they didn't have any
transportation out of there.
118
00:05:52,602 --> 00:05:53,853
- The brazen suspects
119
00:05:53,895 --> 00:05:57,023
leave a trail of destruction
in their wake.
120
00:05:57,065 --> 00:05:59,192
When detectives interview
Jimmy's girlfriend,
121
00:05:59,234 --> 00:06:01,444
Shelly Fisher, they realize
122
00:06:01,486 --> 00:06:03,822
just how terrifying
an ordeal it was.
123
00:06:07,909 --> 00:06:10,036
- They went out to the movies
during New Year's.
124
00:06:10,078 --> 00:06:11,830
James Casino
had his son with him.
125
00:06:11,871 --> 00:06:13,206
They went to the movies,
had a good time.
126
00:06:13,248 --> 00:06:15,792
They dropped his son off
with a friend.
127
00:06:15,834 --> 00:06:17,210
They go park into their condo
128
00:06:17,252 --> 00:06:19,963
that he was residing in
at that time.
129
00:06:20,005 --> 00:06:21,881
- Shelly said that they go
into the condo,
130
00:06:21,923 --> 00:06:24,759
and they're met by two men
with guns and masks.
131
00:06:24,801 --> 00:06:26,803
One of the men
takes Shelly upstairs.
132
00:06:26,845 --> 00:06:29,472
She says, "Are you gonna
kill me? Am I gonna die?"
133
00:06:29,514 --> 00:06:33,059
And he says,
"No, you're too pretty to die."
134
00:06:33,101 --> 00:06:35,729
And he proceeded to rape her.
135
00:06:35,770 --> 00:06:39,190
They left her tied up
in the bedroom upstairs.
136
00:06:39,232 --> 00:06:41,234
One of them went with Jimmy
137
00:06:41,276 --> 00:06:43,570
and he made sure
that he opened up the safe.
138
00:06:43,611 --> 00:06:45,613
And they got all the jewelry
from the safe,
139
00:06:45,655 --> 00:06:47,615
they got credit cards.
140
00:06:47,657 --> 00:06:49,659
Shelly managed
to free herself.
141
00:06:51,202 --> 00:06:53,121
Shelly heard what
she thought were gunshots.
142
00:06:53,163 --> 00:06:54,873
[gunshots]
143
00:06:54,914 --> 00:06:58,168
She saw Jimmy
in a pool of blood, dead.
144
00:06:58,209 --> 00:07:01,796
She went to a neighbor's house
and then she called 911.
145
00:07:02,797 --> 00:07:04,257
They still had to ask
her questions
146
00:07:04,299 --> 00:07:06,634
because the investigation
had to go on,
147
00:07:06,676 --> 00:07:08,678
and they had to catch her
when she still had
148
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,264
profound memories
of what happened.
149
00:07:11,306 --> 00:07:13,725
She never saw
the men who raped her,
150
00:07:13,767 --> 00:07:15,727
but it took a tremendous
amount of strength
151
00:07:15,769 --> 00:07:17,145
for Shelly
to pull herself together
152
00:07:17,187 --> 00:07:20,523
and talk to the police.
153
00:07:20,565 --> 00:07:23,193
- We arranged to have her
taken to the hospital
154
00:07:23,234 --> 00:07:24,194
to have a rape kit done.
155
00:07:26,654 --> 00:07:27,697
Being the only female,
156
00:07:27,739 --> 00:07:30,116
I would go with
the female victim.
157
00:07:30,158 --> 00:07:32,994
The hospital does
the actual rape kits
158
00:07:33,036 --> 00:07:34,913
but I'm there to collect
any evidence
159
00:07:34,954 --> 00:07:36,748
and collect
the rape kit itself.
160
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:38,833
And then it's turned over
to the Orange County crime lab.
161
00:07:41,628 --> 00:07:45,090
At that point,
the victim was very quiet.
162
00:07:45,131 --> 00:07:47,050
After everything had happened
163
00:07:47,092 --> 00:07:48,635
and trying
to process everything,
164
00:07:48,677 --> 00:07:50,095
you've already been violated
by somebody
165
00:07:50,136 --> 00:07:52,722
and now you have to have
other people look at you.
166
00:07:55,642 --> 00:07:58,103
- It's a tricky case
for homicide detectives.
167
00:07:58,144 --> 00:07:59,979
With two attackers on the run,
168
00:08:00,021 --> 00:08:01,940
police must quickly figure out
169
00:08:01,981 --> 00:08:05,151
who was lying in wait
for Shelly and her boyfriend,
170
00:08:05,193 --> 00:08:08,863
and more importantly, why?
171
00:08:12,701 --> 00:08:14,703
- My name's Dan Wagner.
172
00:08:14,744 --> 00:08:16,705
I was the supervisor
of the homicide unit.
173
00:08:16,746 --> 00:08:18,873
I had oversight
over this case.
174
00:08:18,915 --> 00:08:20,625
Jimmy Casino, the businessman,
175
00:08:20,667 --> 00:08:23,795
you know, was 100%
hustle and grit,
176
00:08:23,837 --> 00:08:27,966
and hard work,
and just never say die.
177
00:08:28,008 --> 00:08:30,093
- Detectives soon learn
their murder victim
178
00:08:30,135 --> 00:08:32,345
was born James Stockwell,
179
00:08:32,387 --> 00:08:34,806
but a love for flash and Vegas
180
00:08:34,848 --> 00:08:38,184
led to rebranding himself
"Jimmy Casino."
181
00:08:38,226 --> 00:08:39,978
- Jimmy Casino was one
of these guys
182
00:08:40,020 --> 00:08:41,813
you would probably want
for a friend.
183
00:08:41,855 --> 00:08:44,774
He was generous with his time,
with his money.
184
00:08:44,816 --> 00:08:47,027
He seemed
to really like people.
185
00:08:47,068 --> 00:08:50,989
He had a penchant for having
a very lavish lifestyle,
186
00:08:51,031 --> 00:08:54,576
and that was probably
his downfall over his years
187
00:08:54,617 --> 00:08:57,203
because whenever he would
be starting a new venture,
188
00:08:57,245 --> 00:08:59,581
instead of putting the money
into the venture,
189
00:08:59,622 --> 00:09:02,625
he would put it into nice cars,
190
00:09:02,667 --> 00:09:05,003
very good clothes,
having a nice place to live,
191
00:09:05,045 --> 00:09:07,047
and projecting an image
192
00:09:07,088 --> 00:09:08,840
of somebody
who had a lot of money.
193
00:09:10,216 --> 00:09:12,135
- Talking to those
who knew him best,
194
00:09:12,177 --> 00:09:14,137
authorities flesh out
the portrait
195
00:09:14,179 --> 00:09:17,766
of this larger-than-life
O.C. entrepreneur.
196
00:09:17,807 --> 00:09:20,352
- My name is Yvonne Hill.
197
00:09:20,393 --> 00:09:23,271
I was Jimmy's friend.
198
00:09:23,313 --> 00:09:25,857
I felt always like
I was his younger sister.
199
00:09:25,899 --> 00:09:28,318
My mom was dating his dad.
200
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,154
He was so much fun.
201
00:09:31,196 --> 00:09:34,616
He always had
a different girlfriend.
202
00:09:36,618 --> 00:09:39,412
- He really looked at her
as his sister.
203
00:09:39,454 --> 00:09:42,248
He would drive down
Rodeo drive
204
00:09:42,290 --> 00:09:44,417
and take her
in his Rolls Royce
205
00:09:44,459 --> 00:09:46,920
to check out Beverly Hills.
206
00:09:46,961 --> 00:09:50,215
When he went to the Oscars,
he took her as his plus one.
207
00:09:50,256 --> 00:09:53,760
- He actually took me to buy
a really nice outfit
208
00:09:53,802 --> 00:09:55,720
to wear there, yeah.
209
00:09:55,762 --> 00:09:57,764
And then on the other hand,
210
00:09:57,806 --> 00:09:59,683
I believe Jimmy was
a really good dad
211
00:09:59,724 --> 00:10:02,185
to his son, Shane.
212
00:10:02,227 --> 00:10:05,313
He made sure that Shane
didn't go without anything
213
00:10:05,355 --> 00:10:09,317
and took him on his own
to places.
214
00:10:09,359 --> 00:10:12,362
Jimmy lived with one foot
in his projects.
215
00:10:12,404 --> 00:10:15,323
- And these projects
included business ventures
216
00:10:15,365 --> 00:10:18,910
that raised eyebrows
in conservative Orange County.
217
00:10:18,952 --> 00:10:22,288
- Jimmy Casino owned
the Mustang Ranch, a bar,
218
00:10:22,330 --> 00:10:27,002
which was a considerable issue
for law enforcement
219
00:10:27,043 --> 00:10:31,798
due to the type of clientele
that showed up there.
220
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:37,137
- The Mustang was
a restaurant before,
221
00:10:37,178 --> 00:10:40,724
and then it was
bikini only at first.
222
00:10:40,765 --> 00:10:43,059
And then it went topless.
223
00:10:43,101 --> 00:10:44,853
- Could this
risqué establishment
224
00:10:44,894 --> 00:10:47,689
have roots in something
more menacing?
225
00:10:47,731 --> 00:10:49,858
Something that led
to Jimmy's murder?
226
00:10:49,899 --> 00:10:51,234
- As far as I knew,
227
00:10:51,276 --> 00:10:54,821
Jimmy Casino owned
a topless bar in Santa Ana,
228
00:10:54,863 --> 00:10:57,323
and he had connections.
229
00:10:57,365 --> 00:10:59,701
[gunshot echoing]
230
00:11:02,412 --> 00:11:03,496
- You wouldn't expect to find
231
00:11:03,538 --> 00:11:05,290
organized crime
in Orange County,
232
00:11:05,331 --> 00:11:07,459
but that's because
they don't want to be found.
233
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:08,835
- When you see
that kind of money
234
00:11:08,877 --> 00:11:10,420
that's being made there,
235
00:11:10,462 --> 00:11:13,757
that's always gonna be very
attractive to organized crime.
236
00:11:13,798 --> 00:11:16,134
What are the connections
and who's behind all this?
237
00:11:16,176 --> 00:11:19,137
Who killed Jimmy Casino?
238
00:11:19,179 --> 00:11:22,140
[dramatic music]
239
00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:29,481
[dramatic music]
240
00:11:29,522 --> 00:11:31,107
* *
241
00:11:31,149 --> 00:11:34,110
[waves crashing]
242
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,242
- Just two days into 1987,
243
00:11:41,284 --> 00:11:43,244
the hunt is on for two men
244
00:11:43,286 --> 00:11:46,373
who killed Buena Park
businessman Jimmy Casino,
245
00:11:46,414 --> 00:11:49,209
and raped his girlfriend,
Shelly Fisher.
246
00:11:49,250 --> 00:11:52,045
Investigators know
time is of the essence,
247
00:11:52,087 --> 00:11:53,922
so when they get
a promising lead,
248
00:11:53,963 --> 00:11:57,842
they hope it will help
break the case.
249
00:11:57,884 --> 00:12:01,137
- The investigation
took a turn towards something
250
00:12:01,179 --> 00:12:04,474
the day after the murder
on January 3rd.
251
00:12:07,102 --> 00:12:09,145
- My name is Larry Welborn,
and in 1987,
252
00:12:09,187 --> 00:12:12,357
I was a staff writer for
the Orange County Register.
253
00:12:12,399 --> 00:12:14,109
The cars were found
254
00:12:14,150 --> 00:12:16,569
about five miles
from the crime scene.
255
00:12:16,611 --> 00:12:18,279
When the police
dusted the two cars,
256
00:12:18,321 --> 00:12:19,447
the Camaro and the Mercedes,
257
00:12:19,489 --> 00:12:21,074
they didn't find
any fingerprints.
258
00:12:21,116 --> 00:12:22,367
They didn't find any evidence.
259
00:12:23,493 --> 00:12:23,993
Nothing they could
link back to the crime
260
00:12:24,744 --> 00:12:26,454
on January 2nd, 1987.
261
00:12:29,332 --> 00:12:31,459
- When the vehicle search
comes up empty,
262
00:12:31,501 --> 00:12:33,920
detectives turn
to Jimmy's past
263
00:12:33,962 --> 00:12:37,048
to see if anyone may have
put a target on his back.
264
00:12:38,174 --> 00:12:40,176
- The bottom line is
265
00:12:40,218 --> 00:12:42,554
Jimmy Casino hustled people.
266
00:12:42,595 --> 00:12:44,639
And I think to the point
267
00:12:44,681 --> 00:12:46,975
where he knew he was
never gonna pay them back
268
00:12:47,017 --> 00:12:50,645
in the first place.
269
00:12:50,687 --> 00:12:52,981
- You know, once we dug down
deep into his character,
270
00:12:53,023 --> 00:12:54,232
we found that he had some
271
00:12:54,274 --> 00:12:55,900
shadowy things
in his background.
272
00:13:00,238 --> 00:13:03,950
- After prison, Jimmy did
seem like a changed person.
273
00:13:03,992 --> 00:13:05,493
He wasn't like a criminal,
274
00:13:05,535 --> 00:13:09,497
but he just got into
some really bad deals.
275
00:13:09,539 --> 00:13:13,668
I think Jimmy had
some really bad luck.
276
00:13:13,710 --> 00:13:16,171
- But Jimmy hoped
his newest business venture,
277
00:13:16,212 --> 00:13:19,466
the Mustang Theater,
would prove to be different.
278
00:13:19,507 --> 00:13:20,925
- In the entire United States,
279
00:13:20,967 --> 00:13:22,177
there was no place
more conservative
280
00:13:22,218 --> 00:13:23,887
than Orange County.
281
00:13:25,430 --> 00:13:27,265
- At the time
the Mustang was opening,
282
00:13:27,307 --> 00:13:29,184
it was a wildly
controversial idea.
283
00:13:29,225 --> 00:13:30,894
Frankly, very unpopular.
284
00:13:30,935 --> 00:13:32,354
It was certainly
an open question
285
00:13:32,395 --> 00:13:34,522
as to whether or not
it would be legal or not.
286
00:13:34,564 --> 00:13:37,567
- I think that eight out of ten
judges in Orange County
287
00:13:37,609 --> 00:13:39,402
who would have heard
that case who said,
288
00:13:39,444 --> 00:13:41,154
"No, it's not freedom
of expression.
289
00:13:41,196 --> 00:13:42,655
It's not protected
by the first amendment."
290
00:13:42,697 --> 00:13:44,991
They got the right judge
at the right time.
291
00:13:45,033 --> 00:13:46,451
And boom, there you go.
292
00:13:46,493 --> 00:13:48,286
They got permission
to open up a topless bar
293
00:13:48,328 --> 00:13:49,621
in Orange County.
294
00:13:49,662 --> 00:13:52,499
- Jimmy Casino was a salesman.
295
00:13:52,540 --> 00:13:54,084
Like, a super salesman.
296
00:13:54,125 --> 00:13:56,961
Whatever he had his eyes on,
he could sell.
297
00:13:57,003 --> 00:14:00,006
And he could probably sell ice
to people in Alaska.
298
00:14:00,048 --> 00:14:03,468
You know, putting
a topless theater
299
00:14:03,510 --> 00:14:06,346
in Santa Ana
was a winning proposition.
300
00:14:06,388 --> 00:14:10,558
And it did. It was a very
money-making proposition.
301
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:15,063
- The Mustang was the largest
topless club in the area
302
00:14:15,105 --> 00:14:17,607
and a lot of people
came to check it out.
303
00:14:19,275 --> 00:14:23,446
He finally found his niche.
304
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:25,532
- Police learn that after
305
00:14:25,573 --> 00:14:28,660
Jimmy's run
of failed businesses,
306
00:14:28,702 --> 00:14:32,580
he finally struck gold
with the Mustang.
307
00:14:32,622 --> 00:14:34,165
- The Mustang,
right off the bat,
308
00:14:34,207 --> 00:14:37,585
is just seeing
a lot of money coming in.
309
00:14:37,627 --> 00:14:40,130
Very lucrative.
And so investigators find
310
00:14:40,171 --> 00:14:44,342
that's attracting
a lot of attention.
311
00:14:44,384 --> 00:14:45,635
- And some of the attention
312
00:14:46,761 --> 00:14:47,637
came from characters
who were involved in
313
00:14:48,763 --> 00:14:49,639
a different kind of
organization,
314
00:14:50,306 --> 00:14:53,309
the Orange County mafia.
315
00:14:53,351 --> 00:14:55,562
- You see that kind of money
that's being--
316
00:14:55,603 --> 00:14:57,313
that's being made there,
317
00:14:57,355 --> 00:15:01,484
that's always gonna be very
attractive to organized crime.
318
00:15:01,526 --> 00:15:04,612
There's all kinds
of suspicion and rumors.
319
00:15:04,654 --> 00:15:06,614
Prostitution is happening
out of there.
320
00:15:06,656 --> 00:15:08,116
You're certainly
attracting people
321
00:15:08,158 --> 00:15:11,286
who are coming and using drugs.
322
00:15:11,327 --> 00:15:14,289
It's just a place
for criminals to come
323
00:15:14,330 --> 00:15:16,166
and meet each other.
324
00:15:18,335 --> 00:15:19,377
- You wouldn't expect to find
325
00:15:19,419 --> 00:15:21,254
organized crime
in Orange County,
326
00:15:21,296 --> 00:15:23,798
but that's because
they don't want to be found.
327
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,092
- Through the investigations,
we had found out
328
00:15:26,134 --> 00:15:29,387
he had more connections
with the mob
329
00:15:29,429 --> 00:15:31,723
and money laundering
and things like that
330
00:15:31,765 --> 00:15:34,476
involving the bar.
331
00:15:34,517 --> 00:15:36,227
- Law enforcement is kind of
drawing up the list
332
00:15:36,269 --> 00:15:38,229
of potential suspects.
333
00:15:38,271 --> 00:15:39,481
People who are the muscle
334
00:15:39,522 --> 00:15:41,232
within the local
organized crime
335
00:15:41,274 --> 00:15:44,194
are gonna be looked at.
336
00:15:44,235 --> 00:15:48,490
Jimmy Casino and
his nightclub, The Mustang,
337
00:15:48,531 --> 00:15:50,450
this was a candle
that burned very bright
338
00:15:50,492 --> 00:15:52,786
and attracted
a lot of moths to it.
339
00:15:58,041 --> 00:16:01,294
Jimmy owed people money
and wouldn't pay,
340
00:16:01,336 --> 00:16:05,298
and he was getting paid back
for not paying his debts.
341
00:16:05,340 --> 00:16:07,175
- Police came out
and talked to me.
342
00:16:07,217 --> 00:16:11,513
I thought somebody had
sent those guys
343
00:16:11,554 --> 00:16:16,726
to rough him up
and steal his stuff
344
00:16:16,768 --> 00:16:19,437
because he owed--
345
00:16:19,479 --> 00:16:23,149
well, he owed
a couple people money.
346
00:16:23,191 --> 00:16:24,818
- Because of his lifestyle,
347
00:16:24,859 --> 00:16:26,152
I don't think he owed
348
00:16:26,194 --> 00:16:27,445
a little bit of money
to people,
349
00:16:27,487 --> 00:16:30,573
I think he owed
a lot of money to people.
350
00:16:34,244 --> 00:16:37,706
- With Jimmy Casino owing
so much money to so many,
351
00:16:37,747 --> 00:16:40,208
investigators have their work
cut out for them,
352
00:16:40,250 --> 00:16:42,085
but they soon get a hot lead
353
00:16:42,127 --> 00:16:45,088
that just might help
break the case.
354
00:16:47,757 --> 00:16:50,385
- So five days after the
murder, the big break comes.
355
00:16:50,427 --> 00:16:53,722
What seems like
it might be the big break.
356
00:16:53,763 --> 00:16:57,267
Investigators are alerted that
Jimmy Casino's credit card,
357
00:16:57,308 --> 00:16:58,727
his American Express card,
358
00:16:58,768 --> 00:17:01,604
has been presented to a clerk
at a department store,
359
00:17:01,646 --> 00:17:03,231
about 50 miles away
from the place
360
00:17:03,273 --> 00:17:06,234
where Jimmy was killed.
361
00:17:06,276 --> 00:17:07,652
- The fact that Jimmy's cards,
362
00:17:07,694 --> 00:17:09,446
Jimmy Casino's cards,
were taken
363
00:17:10,905 --> 00:17:12,741
and somebody tried to use them
in a very short period of time
364
00:17:12,782 --> 00:17:16,411
after he was killed,
to me was huge.
365
00:17:16,453 --> 00:17:18,163
- We suddenly had
our first real lead.
366
00:17:21,499 --> 00:17:24,502
[dramatic music]
367
00:17:29,591 --> 00:17:32,552
[dramatic music]
368
00:17:32,594 --> 00:17:35,472
* *
369
00:17:36,264 --> 00:17:36,765
- It's been five days
370
00:17:37,932 --> 00:17:39,225
since O.C. club owner,
Jimmy Casino,
371
00:17:40,393 --> 00:17:41,519
and his girlfriend
were attacked in his home,
372
00:17:41,561 --> 00:17:43,855
leaving Jimmy dead.
373
00:17:43,897 --> 00:17:46,232
Thanks to the quick actions
of a store clerk,
374
00:17:46,274 --> 00:17:47,609
police now have a hit
375
00:17:47,650 --> 00:17:50,570
on one of Jimmy's
stolen credit cards.
376
00:17:50,612 --> 00:17:53,406
- Two men were seen using
the cards at a store
377
00:17:53,448 --> 00:17:54,532
and they made a purchase.
378
00:17:55,492 --> 00:17:55,909
They were at
a department store
379
00:17:57,035 --> 00:17:58,328
and when the clerk
ran the credit card,
380
00:17:58,370 --> 00:18:00,663
it came back
as a "homicide hold."
381
00:18:00,705 --> 00:18:05,210
The clerk contacted security
to come and get these guys.
382
00:18:05,251 --> 00:18:08,254
- As the clerk is trying
to alert law enforcement,
383
00:18:08,296 --> 00:18:10,298
the two men, they turn and run
384
00:18:10,340 --> 00:18:12,342
and flee from
the department store.
385
00:18:15,762 --> 00:18:19,516
But the police
are almost there.
386
00:18:19,557 --> 00:18:22,394
And so law enforcement
gives chase.
387
00:18:24,729 --> 00:18:27,899
And it becomes a bit
of a lengthy car chase.
388
00:18:31,528 --> 00:18:33,405
And finally, two men
are taken into custody.
389
00:18:35,907 --> 00:18:38,576
These are extremely
strong suspects:
390
00:18:39,536 --> 00:18:42,789
Mark Corbett,
and Joseph Orozco.
391
00:18:42,831 --> 00:18:45,542
Corbett and Orozco
now are in possession
392
00:18:45,583 --> 00:18:48,253
of Jimmy Casino's credit card
393
00:18:48,294 --> 00:18:49,963
that was taken
during the murder.
394
00:18:50,005 --> 00:18:52,298
There's a direct trace
between them
395
00:18:52,340 --> 00:18:53,925
and the murder victim.
396
00:18:53,967 --> 00:18:56,261
- Detectives immediately
do a background check
397
00:18:56,302 --> 00:18:59,264
on Mark Corbett
and Joseph Orozco,
398
00:18:59,305 --> 00:19:01,558
and soon learn about
their questionable pasts
399
00:19:01,599 --> 00:19:03,476
and connections.
400
00:19:03,518 --> 00:19:05,520
- Mark Corbett had the more
established criminal history.
401
00:19:05,562 --> 00:19:08,565
He'd been in jail
and had some connection
402
00:19:08,606 --> 00:19:11,901
to the more seedier aspects
of Orange County,
403
00:19:11,943 --> 00:19:14,279
the real mob.
404
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:15,739
- These are people
that frequented
405
00:19:15,780 --> 00:19:18,992
the Mustang Theater.
406
00:19:19,034 --> 00:19:21,286
So that gives you the hope
that we're gonna be able
407
00:19:21,327 --> 00:19:23,329
to develop a motive
of why it was
408
00:19:23,371 --> 00:19:26,624
that they wanted to kill
Jimmy Casino.
409
00:19:26,666 --> 00:19:29,044
- Mike Corbett and Joe Orozco,
410
00:19:29,085 --> 00:19:31,421
their explanation was
411
00:19:31,463 --> 00:19:35,383
Joe had found the credit cards
in a parking lot
412
00:19:35,425 --> 00:19:38,345
and he took them to Corbett,
413
00:19:38,386 --> 00:19:40,597
and they were gonna pass them.
414
00:19:40,638 --> 00:19:43,933
- The two men in custody
seem like promising suspects,
415
00:19:43,975 --> 00:19:47,062
but investigators need proof
that Corbett and Orozco
416
00:19:47,103 --> 00:19:49,856
are more than
just petty thieves.
417
00:19:49,898 --> 00:19:52,692
- And the police are aware
that this timeline is ticking.
418
00:19:52,734 --> 00:19:55,487
You know, we have to have
enough evidence to file
419
00:19:55,528 --> 00:19:56,946
or else these men
get out of jail.
420
00:19:56,988 --> 00:19:59,449
And they're working hard
and they get a search warrant
421
00:19:59,491 --> 00:20:01,076
and they go
to Mark Corbett's house,
422
00:20:01,117 --> 00:20:03,620
and they turn it all over
looking for evidence.
423
00:20:03,661 --> 00:20:05,747
They find some
.22 caliber ammunition,
424
00:20:05,789 --> 00:20:08,541
the same caliber
as the murder weapon.
425
00:20:08,583 --> 00:20:11,419
But there's nothing that--
426
00:20:11,461 --> 00:20:13,088
particular about
that ammunition,
427
00:20:13,129 --> 00:20:14,339
there's no fingerprints,
428
00:20:14,381 --> 00:20:16,966
there's nothing that
directly links them,
429
00:20:17,008 --> 00:20:20,970
Corbett or Orozco,
to the crime scene itself.
430
00:20:21,012 --> 00:20:22,972
- Investigators
really couldn't establish
431
00:20:23,014 --> 00:20:25,517
any further connection
to the crime scene,
432
00:20:25,558 --> 00:20:29,771
and so Joseph Orozco
and Mark Corbett were released.
433
00:20:29,813 --> 00:20:31,690
- With the only two suspects
released
434
00:20:31,731 --> 00:20:33,483
due to lack of evidence,
435
00:20:33,525 --> 00:20:35,735
investigators check out
their acquaintances
436
00:20:35,777 --> 00:20:38,697
to look for
any possible connection.
437
00:20:39,572 --> 00:20:41,157
- Somebody who knew
Mark Corbett--
438
00:20:41,199 --> 00:20:43,660
there was another individual
in the mix there--
439
00:20:43,702 --> 00:20:45,662
was Richard Morris.
440
00:20:45,704 --> 00:20:46,871
He had some
criminal background
441
00:20:47,872 --> 00:20:48,665
but that was
up in the Pasadena area.
442
00:20:50,250 --> 00:20:52,419
In 1987, a few months after
the killing of Jimmy Casino,
443
00:20:52,460 --> 00:20:53,753
Richard Morris,
444
00:20:53,795 --> 00:20:56,548
he had been stopped
by the Pasadena police,
445
00:20:56,589 --> 00:20:58,883
questioned,
he was under suspicion
446
00:20:58,925 --> 00:21:01,761
of a robbery murder
that happened in Pasadena.
447
00:21:01,803 --> 00:21:03,847
He'd actually told
Pasadena police
448
00:21:03,888 --> 00:21:06,808
that he had some knowledge
about an Orange County murder.
449
00:21:07,726 --> 00:21:10,979
- He was a real "Chatty Cathy,"
talking about his buddies.
450
00:21:11,021 --> 00:21:14,566
Morris admits his friend,
Mark Corbett,
451
00:21:14,607 --> 00:21:16,860
the same guy who had
Casino's credit cards,
452
00:21:16,901 --> 00:21:20,739
told him he was paid $10,000
to kill a guy in Orange County
453
00:21:20,780 --> 00:21:23,408
several months earlier.
454
00:21:23,450 --> 00:21:25,785
Morris is doing
what they all do:
455
00:21:25,827 --> 00:21:27,829
he's rolling over
on his partner,
456
00:21:27,871 --> 00:21:33,126
is what he's doing here,
which is so, so, so common.
457
00:21:33,168 --> 00:21:36,838
- Common or not, investigators
want to talk to Corbett again.
458
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,424
But when they reach out,
they learn he left the state
459
00:21:39,466 --> 00:21:41,468
and are unable
to track him down,
460
00:21:41,509 --> 00:21:44,220
leaving investigators
back at square one.
461
00:21:44,262 --> 00:21:47,057
- The Mustang Theater
was making a lot of money,
462
00:21:47,098 --> 00:21:50,894
like $150,000 a month,
and despite all that,
463
00:21:50,935 --> 00:21:54,481
Jimmy Casino still couldn't
pay back his debts.
464
00:21:54,522 --> 00:21:57,567
- As detectives dig into Jimmy
Casino's business dealings,
465
00:21:57,609 --> 00:21:59,903
they learn about an associate
who they hope
466
00:21:59,944 --> 00:22:03,490
can provide some insight
into who Jimmy owed money to.
467
00:22:03,531 --> 00:22:05,200
- Gene Lesher was a financier,
468
00:22:05,241 --> 00:22:07,535
and Jimmy Casino convinced him
469
00:22:07,577 --> 00:22:09,079
to help put up
some of the money
470
00:22:09,120 --> 00:22:11,206
for the Mustang Theater.
471
00:22:11,247 --> 00:22:13,124
- Gene Lesher
tells law enforcement
472
00:22:13,166 --> 00:22:16,127
that Jimmy was deep in debt
to Bill Carroll,
473
00:22:16,169 --> 00:22:18,463
and obviously,
Bill wanted his money back.
474
00:22:18,505 --> 00:22:20,924
Bill even filed
a lawsuit against Jimmy,
475
00:22:20,965 --> 00:22:22,759
claiming that Jimmy
owed him money
476
00:22:22,801 --> 00:22:24,761
and Bill wanted to collect.
477
00:22:24,803 --> 00:22:27,681
- Bill Carroll was an investor
in The Mustang
478
00:22:27,722 --> 00:22:31,768
and did loan Jimmy
a lot of money
479
00:22:31,810 --> 00:22:35,522
and was wanting his payments.
480
00:22:35,563 --> 00:22:37,941
- Bill Carroll, he's got ties
to the Mustang Theater,
481
00:22:37,982 --> 00:22:39,776
he's got connections
in the mob.
482
00:22:39,818 --> 00:22:41,111
- When you owe money
to the mob,
483
00:22:41,152 --> 00:22:42,779
you've got a problem.
484
00:22:42,821 --> 00:22:44,823
And Jimmy Casino
was into Bill Carroll
485
00:22:44,864 --> 00:22:47,617
for at least
couple hundred thousand.
486
00:22:47,659 --> 00:22:49,619
Bill is not the kind of guy
you want to owe money to.
487
00:22:49,661 --> 00:22:52,997
That had to be looked at
as a strong motive here.
488
00:22:53,039 --> 00:22:55,667
- With mob money
and murder motives,
489
00:22:55,709 --> 00:22:59,504
Bill Carroll has all
the makings of a lead suspect,
490
00:22:59,546 --> 00:23:02,882
but police may never get
a chance to question him.
491
00:23:02,924 --> 00:23:05,635
- So fast forward
to May 1st, 1987,
492
00:23:05,677 --> 00:23:08,638
just a few months after
the killing of Jimmy Casino,
493
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,182
something else
pretty extraordinary happens.
494
00:23:12,058 --> 00:23:14,978
What looks like a dead body
turns up in the Costa Mesa
495
00:23:15,020 --> 00:23:17,188
Performing Arts parking lot.
496
00:23:17,230 --> 00:23:18,773
The man is Bill Carroll,
497
00:23:18,815 --> 00:23:21,609
and he's got three
bullet wounds to the head.
498
00:23:23,945 --> 00:23:25,655
- An eyewitness said
that this victim
499
00:23:25,697 --> 00:23:27,991
had been in a car
with two other men
500
00:23:28,033 --> 00:23:30,618
and that he'd gotten three
shots to the back of the head
501
00:23:30,660 --> 00:23:32,662
and then been
thrown out of the car.
502
00:23:32,704 --> 00:23:35,832
- Carroll had money
invested in the bar,
503
00:23:35,874 --> 00:23:37,917
and somebody didn't feel like
504
00:23:37,959 --> 00:23:39,586
they were getting
their fair share
505
00:23:39,627 --> 00:23:42,088
of all of the money that
that bar was making.
506
00:23:42,130 --> 00:23:44,591
They think that's
how they do business, so.
507
00:23:46,217 --> 00:23:48,845
- This was another
execution-style murder,
508
00:23:48,887 --> 00:23:51,181
except somehow,
509
00:23:51,222 --> 00:23:53,850
Bill Carroll survived.
510
00:23:53,892 --> 00:23:56,811
He is blinded
as a result of the gunshots,
511
00:23:56,853 --> 00:23:58,146
but he won't talk.
512
00:23:58,188 --> 00:24:00,023
He's completely uncooperative.
513
00:24:00,065 --> 00:24:04,110
And so that kind of reaches
a dead-end right at that point.
514
00:24:04,152 --> 00:24:07,697
- With Mustang front man
Jimmy Casino already executed,
515
00:24:07,739 --> 00:24:09,616
and what looks like
a hit on his money man,
516
00:24:09,657 --> 00:24:11,034
Bill Carroll,
517
00:24:11,076 --> 00:24:14,079
police are certain
the two are connected.
518
00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:15,789
- When it comes to
The Mustang,
519
00:24:15,830 --> 00:24:17,123
investigators have
to start to wonder
520
00:24:18,291 --> 00:24:19,709
if there's going to be
much more cold-blooded,
521
00:24:20,669 --> 00:24:23,088
premeditated,
deliberate murder.
522
00:24:23,129 --> 00:24:26,091
[dramatic music]
523
00:24:30,762 --> 00:24:33,640
[dramatic music]
524
00:24:34,099 --> 00:24:35,058
* *
525
00:24:39,813 --> 00:24:42,774
- While police search
for Jimmy Casino's killers,
526
00:24:42,816 --> 00:24:45,652
Bill Carroll, a top investor
at the Mustang Theatre
527
00:24:45,694 --> 00:24:46,986
is gunned down,
528
00:24:47,028 --> 00:24:49,823
but miraculously survives.
529
00:24:49,864 --> 00:24:52,033
Detectives now feel
the two shootings
530
00:24:52,075 --> 00:24:56,788
are related to Orange County
organized crime.
531
00:24:56,830 --> 00:24:58,123
- Now that Bill Carroll
has been shot
532
00:24:58,164 --> 00:25:00,333
after Jimmy Casino is shot,
533
00:25:00,375 --> 00:25:03,294
something's very active
in the community
534
00:25:03,336 --> 00:25:05,463
that's causing
all this violence.
535
00:25:05,505 --> 00:25:09,092
And law enforcement
is pouring resources into it
536
00:25:09,134 --> 00:25:10,969
and looking very closely
to try to figure out
537
00:25:11,011 --> 00:25:12,220
what are the connections
538
00:25:12,262 --> 00:25:13,972
and who's behind all this?
539
00:25:14,014 --> 00:25:15,807
And what always
keeps coming up
540
00:25:15,849 --> 00:25:17,851
is the people that
law enforcement is looking at,
541
00:25:17,892 --> 00:25:20,437
they all have ties
to the Mustang Theater.
542
00:25:23,857 --> 00:25:25,817
- As we reported this story,
now it looks like
543
00:25:25,859 --> 00:25:28,319
maybe Bill Carroll
had Jimmy Casino whacked
544
00:25:28,361 --> 00:25:31,823
because he wanted
more control of the Mustang.
545
00:25:31,865 --> 00:25:33,825
- But if Bill put the hit out
on Jimmy,
546
00:25:33,867 --> 00:25:36,995
then who put the hit out
on Bill?
547
00:25:37,037 --> 00:25:39,706
As if police don't have enough
burning questions,
548
00:25:39,748 --> 00:25:41,124
the entity
at the center of it all
549
00:25:41,166 --> 00:25:43,043
goes up in smoke.
550
00:25:47,088 --> 00:25:50,425
- January 1988,
Mustang Ranch burned down.
551
00:25:50,467 --> 00:25:52,927
- I mean, right in the middle
of all these shootings,
552
00:25:52,969 --> 00:25:55,805
in the middle of the night,
the place goes up in flames.
553
00:25:55,847 --> 00:25:58,099
But nobody ends up
being killed.
554
00:26:00,143 --> 00:26:02,145
- The madness and mayhem
of the Mustang
555
00:26:02,187 --> 00:26:04,189
continues into the spring,
556
00:26:04,230 --> 00:26:08,485
when police are notified of
an all-too-familiar scenario.
557
00:26:09,527 --> 00:26:11,946
- On March 12th of 1988,
558
00:26:11,988 --> 00:26:14,866
there's a body found
in a parking lot.
559
00:26:14,908 --> 00:26:17,243
- He was a bouncer
at the Mustang,
560
00:26:17,285 --> 00:26:20,455
a known muscle man
for the mob,
561
00:26:20,497 --> 00:26:24,042
and he turns up in an Irvine
industrial complex parking lot,
562
00:26:24,084 --> 00:26:25,251
middle of the night,
563
00:26:25,293 --> 00:26:28,296
gunshot wound to the head
from close range.
564
00:26:28,338 --> 00:26:32,133
- That's the third so-called
execution-style hit,
565
00:26:32,175 --> 00:26:34,302
or would-be hit
out of the Mustang
566
00:26:34,344 --> 00:26:36,930
in less than 15 months.
567
00:26:36,971 --> 00:26:39,474
This story keeps getting
bigger and wilder and crazier.
568
00:26:41,226 --> 00:26:43,478
- After Jimmy was killed,
569
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,815
I did not go back
to the Mustang.
570
00:26:46,856 --> 00:26:50,944
I was really upset and shocked
when I heard that
571
00:26:50,985 --> 00:26:56,116
one of our bouncers
also got shot.
572
00:26:56,157 --> 00:26:57,826
That was pretty scary,
573
00:26:57,867 --> 00:27:02,288
being that he was involved
in the Mustang also.
574
00:27:02,330 --> 00:27:04,916
I don't like
to remember it all.
575
00:27:06,459 --> 00:27:09,087
- After Jimmy Casino
was murdered,
576
00:27:09,129 --> 00:27:12,090
there subsequently
was more fallout.
577
00:27:12,132 --> 00:27:13,425
And when you look at it,
578
00:27:13,466 --> 00:27:16,428
they don't necessarily
all tie together
579
00:27:16,469 --> 00:27:19,055
other than the fact that
they are all somehow
580
00:27:19,097 --> 00:27:23,101
involved in the Mustang.
581
00:27:23,143 --> 00:27:24,477
- So although there seemed
to be some connections
582
00:27:24,519 --> 00:27:26,146
with the shootings,
583
00:27:26,187 --> 00:27:27,439
nothing was able to be
584
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,858
definitively linked
by investigators,
585
00:27:29,899 --> 00:27:32,277
and we're still left wondering
who killed Jimmy Casino.
586
00:27:35,488 --> 00:27:38,074
Then in October 1988,
587
00:27:38,116 --> 00:27:40,952
police get an unexpected
phone call from Bill Carroll.
588
00:27:40,994 --> 00:27:42,620
He hadn't wanted
to talk to the police
589
00:27:42,662 --> 00:27:45,832
at the time that he got shot
and blinded.
590
00:27:45,874 --> 00:27:47,542
He says he's ready to talk.
591
00:27:47,584 --> 00:27:50,128
Bill Carroll tells the police
that the people who shot him
592
00:27:50,170 --> 00:27:52,505
were hitmen for the mafia.
593
00:27:52,547 --> 00:27:54,341
- Bill Carroll
seems to confirm
594
00:27:54,382 --> 00:27:56,051
investigators' suspicions
595
00:27:56,092 --> 00:27:57,927
that organized crime
is to blame
596
00:27:57,969 --> 00:28:00,513
for the violence connected
to the Mustang Theater,
597
00:28:00,555 --> 00:28:04,392
but suspicions carry no weight
without actual evidence.
598
00:28:04,434 --> 00:28:06,603
- Further investigation
doesn't show any link
599
00:28:06,644 --> 00:28:10,106
between these two men
and the Jimmy Casino murder.
600
00:28:10,148 --> 00:28:13,902
No fingerprints, nothing else
places them in the home
601
00:28:13,943 --> 00:28:15,320
on the night of the murder.
602
00:28:15,362 --> 00:28:17,030
- The men who shot
Bill Carroll
603
00:28:17,072 --> 00:28:18,990
are convicted
of his attempted murder,
604
00:28:19,032 --> 00:28:20,867
but fearing they'll be next,
605
00:28:20,909 --> 00:28:23,495
no one with ties
to the Mustang comes forward
606
00:28:23,536 --> 00:28:26,623
with helpful information
about Jimmy Casino's murder
607
00:28:26,664 --> 00:28:29,167
and the case goes cold.
608
00:28:29,209 --> 00:28:32,504
- It was really hard
waiting to find out
609
00:28:32,545 --> 00:28:34,381
exactly what had
happened to Jimmy.
610
00:28:35,465 --> 00:28:37,008
- Part of your motivation
611
00:28:37,050 --> 00:28:38,510
in wanting to solve
a crime like this
612
00:28:38,551 --> 00:28:40,553
is to do justice
for the victims.
613
00:28:40,595 --> 00:28:44,015
It is very much a motivator
and it can be frustrating
614
00:28:44,057 --> 00:28:49,354
to not be able to bring about
that justice for them.
615
00:28:49,396 --> 00:28:52,440
- More than 11 years go by
with no leads,
616
00:28:52,482 --> 00:28:55,527
but in 2001,
an incarcerated mobster
617
00:28:55,568 --> 00:28:57,529
claims he has pertinent
information
618
00:28:57,570 --> 00:29:00,407
that could turn
the case upside down.
619
00:29:00,448 --> 00:29:01,950
- The case was cold,
620
00:29:01,991 --> 00:29:04,661
but the DA's office
is still working on it.
621
00:29:04,703 --> 00:29:07,038
They'd still like
to try to solve that case.
622
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:08,540
And they hear that
there's someone imprisoned
623
00:29:08,581 --> 00:29:10,959
who wants to talk to them
and maybe make a deal.
624
00:29:11,001 --> 00:29:14,379
So enter Frank Randazzo.
625
00:29:14,421 --> 00:29:17,215
- Frank Randazzo is another
person with ties to the mob.
626
00:29:17,257 --> 00:29:20,093
He's certainly a person
that's around the Mustang.
627
00:29:20,135 --> 00:29:22,137
- At the time,
Frank was in prison
628
00:29:22,178 --> 00:29:25,348
for some other crime
that he had committed.
629
00:29:25,390 --> 00:29:26,641
- So he's in poor health.
630
00:29:26,683 --> 00:29:27,976
He would like
to get out earlier.
631
00:29:28,018 --> 00:29:29,519
He tells the DA's office that
632
00:29:29,561 --> 00:29:33,106
he'd like to see if he could
cut a deal to get out earlier.
633
00:29:33,148 --> 00:29:36,317
- He always was in a position
that he want to offer
634
00:29:36,359 --> 00:29:39,237
a fair trade somehow,
and involve himself,
635
00:29:39,279 --> 00:29:42,282
and "Well, I can tell you this
if you'll do this."
636
00:29:42,323 --> 00:29:45,577
So he was a wheeler-dealer
type of guy.
637
00:29:45,618 --> 00:29:48,038
- Frank Randazzo
claims to have information
638
00:29:48,079 --> 00:29:50,081
about the Jimmy Casino murder.
639
00:29:50,123 --> 00:29:52,042
So police come,
and they're all ears,
640
00:29:52,083 --> 00:29:55,170
tape recorders are rolling,
and Frank lays out this story
641
00:29:55,211 --> 00:29:57,547
of how the Jimmy Casino
murder went down.
642
00:30:09,517 --> 00:30:11,269
- The information
Frank Randazzo gave us
643
00:30:11,311 --> 00:30:12,645
was promising.
644
00:30:12,687 --> 00:30:14,981
- It's like bullseye, bingo.
645
00:30:15,023 --> 00:30:16,524
This is the kind of
powerful evidence
646
00:30:16,566 --> 00:30:18,151
tied to the crime scene
647
00:30:18,193 --> 00:30:19,652
that has been
the missing element.
648
00:30:19,694 --> 00:30:21,988
- After almost 30 years,
I get a phone call
649
00:30:22,030 --> 00:30:23,573
from the Orange County
DA's office saying
650
00:30:23,615 --> 00:30:24,741
they have somebody in custody.
651
00:30:24,783 --> 00:30:26,034
I couldn't believe
what I was seeing.
652
00:30:29,537 --> 00:30:32,499
[dramatic music]
653
00:30:36,711 --> 00:30:39,547
[dramatic music]
654
00:30:40,006 --> 00:30:46,304
* *
655
00:30:46,346 --> 00:30:48,181
- More than a decade
after club owner
656
00:30:48,223 --> 00:30:50,183
Jimmy Casino's execution
657
00:30:50,225 --> 00:30:52,686
and the rape of
his girlfriend, Shelly Fisher,
658
00:30:52,727 --> 00:30:54,396
detectives still don't know
659
00:30:54,437 --> 00:30:56,523
who was behind
the brazen attack,
660
00:30:56,564 --> 00:30:59,693
but an imprisoned mobster
with a penchant for gab
661
00:30:59,734 --> 00:31:02,153
claims he can identify
the killers.
662
00:31:02,195 --> 00:31:04,072
- The information
Frank Randazzo gave us
663
00:31:04,114 --> 00:31:06,241
was promising
to solve this cold case.
664
00:31:07,575 --> 00:31:09,536
- I think Frank was desperate.
665
00:31:09,577 --> 00:31:11,454
He had a heart condition,
and the prison system,
666
00:31:11,496 --> 00:31:14,082
they weren't going to
do the operation
667
00:31:14,124 --> 00:31:16,710
that Frank Randazzo
felt like he needed.
668
00:31:16,751 --> 00:31:20,380
So he started,
you know, talking.
669
00:31:20,422 --> 00:31:22,173
Frank Randazzo,
when he conveyed the story,
670
00:31:22,215 --> 00:31:23,717
it took the officers a while
671
00:31:23,758 --> 00:31:26,136
to run it down
and figure it out.
672
00:31:32,350 --> 00:31:35,186
- Frank Randazzo,
he implicated a guy
673
00:31:35,228 --> 00:31:37,272
by the name of Jimmy Sevedra.
674
00:31:56,833 --> 00:32:00,211
- After a period of time,
we had learned that
675
00:32:00,253 --> 00:32:01,921
what Frank Randazzo
might tell you
676
00:32:01,963 --> 00:32:05,133
might not exactly be all true.
677
00:32:19,814 --> 00:32:22,442
- Police get as many details
as they can from Frank,
678
00:32:22,484 --> 00:32:24,152
and they want to corroborate
what he's saying.
679
00:32:24,194 --> 00:32:26,529
And they check out
every detail they can.
680
00:32:26,571 --> 00:32:27,822
And over and over,
681
00:32:27,864 --> 00:32:29,783
those details
are not checking out.
682
00:32:29,824 --> 00:32:32,410
And so, what seemed like
a big break
683
00:32:32,452 --> 00:32:34,287
ends up again
being a disappointment.
684
00:32:34,329 --> 00:32:36,164
And they go back to Frank
and just say,
685
00:32:36,206 --> 00:32:37,457
"Buddy, you're full of it."
686
00:32:37,499 --> 00:32:39,250
And Frank actually ends up
admitting that
687
00:32:39,292 --> 00:32:40,669
and saying he was lying
to the police.
688
00:32:42,253 --> 00:32:44,214
- Despite yet another
dead end,
689
00:32:44,255 --> 00:32:46,216
investigators hold out hope
690
00:32:46,257 --> 00:32:49,552
that someday they'll bring
justice to Jimmy's son, Shane,
691
00:32:49,594 --> 00:32:52,639
and girlfriend, Shelly Fisher.
692
00:32:52,681 --> 00:32:55,433
- 2008, 20 years has passed
since the murders,
693
00:32:55,475 --> 00:32:58,561
and people's lives,
they've moved on.
694
00:32:58,603 --> 00:33:00,605
Shane and Shelly
both live in Orange County,
695
00:33:00,647 --> 00:33:02,857
they both have lives,
they both have families,
696
00:33:02,899 --> 00:33:05,276
and have gone on
697
00:33:05,318 --> 00:33:06,444
and put this behind them.
698
00:33:07,904 --> 00:33:09,239
- The case goes cold.
699
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,492
I go on, I have two children.
700
00:33:12,534 --> 00:33:15,203
At times, I bring stuff out
to show my children and stuff
701
00:33:15,245 --> 00:33:17,831
and we talk about it
and often wonder, "What if?"
702
00:33:19,582 --> 00:33:21,751
- Basically,
everybody had gone their way,
703
00:33:21,793 --> 00:33:25,338
except the police, who were
still trying to figure out
704
00:33:25,380 --> 00:33:27,465
how can they solve that case.
705
00:33:27,507 --> 00:33:29,884
And some people
probably died and--
706
00:33:29,926 --> 00:33:31,428
who were witnesses--
707
00:33:31,469 --> 00:33:33,596
and a cold case
just gets colder.
708
00:33:33,638 --> 00:33:36,266
- And then,
seemingly out of the blue,
709
00:33:36,307 --> 00:33:38,435
the cold case that's haunted
Orange County
710
00:33:38,476 --> 00:33:40,729
for two decades heats up.
711
00:33:40,770 --> 00:33:42,689
- After almost 30 years,
I get a phone call
712
00:33:42,731 --> 00:33:44,524
from the Orange County
DA's office saying that
713
00:33:44,566 --> 00:33:46,484
they have somebody in custody.
714
00:33:46,526 --> 00:33:48,653
I couldn't believe
what I was hearing.
715
00:33:48,695 --> 00:33:52,782
They had got a hit on the DNA
from the rape kit.
716
00:33:52,824 --> 00:33:55,243
- That DNA,
collected at the hospital
717
00:33:55,285 --> 00:33:57,704
after Shelly's
horrifying rape,
718
00:33:57,746 --> 00:34:00,373
has just been matched
to a familiar name,
719
00:34:00,415 --> 00:34:03,501
former suspect Richard Morris.
720
00:34:03,543 --> 00:34:05,628
- Richard Morris
was a name familiar to police
721
00:34:05,670 --> 00:34:07,464
because he's the one
who claimed
722
00:34:07,505 --> 00:34:09,549
that Mark Corbett
had bragged about
723
00:34:09,591 --> 00:34:11,760
killing a man
in Orange County.
724
00:34:11,801 --> 00:34:15,889
- This barely known
bit player in the crime world
725
00:34:15,930 --> 00:34:17,640
named Richard Morris,
726
00:34:17,682 --> 00:34:20,810
was living on
the island of Hawaii.
727
00:34:20,852 --> 00:34:22,395
- He was driving
under the influence.
728
00:34:22,437 --> 00:34:23,646
They were able
to take a DNA sample
729
00:34:23,688 --> 00:34:26,399
as part of the arrest process.
730
00:34:26,441 --> 00:34:29,569
- And so, Richard Morris' DNA
goes into a database.
731
00:34:29,611 --> 00:34:31,905
This is what we call
a cold case hit.
732
00:34:31,946 --> 00:34:35,575
There's a prior DNA sample
taken from the crime scene.
733
00:34:35,617 --> 00:34:38,286
The rape/murder
of Jimmy Casino
734
00:34:38,328 --> 00:34:39,746
and his girlfriend Shelly,
735
00:34:39,788 --> 00:34:42,749
and now it's matched up
with a DUI suspect.
736
00:34:44,584 --> 00:34:46,795
- And so, bang,
that's what set off the alarm.
737
00:34:46,836 --> 00:34:49,005
And that's when it started
the ball rolling.
738
00:36:05,999 --> 00:36:07,459
- Morris denies
any involvement
739
00:36:07,500 --> 00:36:08,626
in the rape of Shelly
740
00:36:09,586 --> 00:36:11,671
and/or the murder
of James Casino.
741
00:36:11,713 --> 00:36:15,091
- While Morris stonewalls
under interrogation in Hawaii,
742
00:36:15,133 --> 00:36:17,594
local authorities are able
to hold him in custody
743
00:36:17,635 --> 00:36:19,054
based on the DNA evidence.
744
00:36:21,723 --> 00:36:24,017
- Well, after Richard
was incarcerated,
745
00:36:24,059 --> 00:36:26,728
the DA's office
was able to get him
746
00:36:26,770 --> 00:36:29,022
returned to
the state of California
747
00:36:29,064 --> 00:36:32,859
to face the charges
on this case.
748
00:36:32,901 --> 00:36:37,530
- It's like bullseye, bingo.
This is it.
749
00:36:37,572 --> 00:36:39,824
This is the kind
of powerful evidence
750
00:36:39,866 --> 00:36:41,743
tied to the crime scene
751
00:36:41,785 --> 00:36:42,994
that has been
the missing element.
752
00:36:43,036 --> 00:36:44,829
Now we've got him.
753
00:36:44,871 --> 00:36:48,833
Now we know
who was inside that house...
754
00:36:51,628 --> 00:36:54,422
On New Year's Day, 1987.
755
00:36:57,759 --> 00:36:59,719
So all our focus is on him,
756
00:36:59,761 --> 00:37:00,970
proving that he was
one of the two men
757
00:37:01,012 --> 00:37:03,598
that came inside the home
on January 1st.
758
00:37:05,517 --> 00:37:07,060
- Since Orange County
prosecutors
759
00:37:07,102 --> 00:37:10,105
have concrete proof
Richard was at the scene,
760
00:37:10,146 --> 00:37:12,190
they just need
to secure the testimony
761
00:37:12,232 --> 00:37:14,651
to make it stick in court.
762
00:37:14,693 --> 00:37:16,736
- So that's a process and,
you know, you kind of gear up
763
00:37:16,778 --> 00:37:18,113
and you get organized,
764
00:37:18,154 --> 00:37:20,115
and you gotta
subpoena witnesses,
765
00:37:20,156 --> 00:37:22,659
and there's a lot of work
to be done
766
00:37:22,701 --> 00:37:25,578
when it's a case
that happened 30 years ago.
767
00:37:25,620 --> 00:37:27,997
So investigators have to go
knock on a lot of doors
768
00:37:28,039 --> 00:37:31,584
and follow a lot of leads
to find the witnesses.
769
00:37:32,460 --> 00:37:35,005
It's never easy for the victim
of sexual assault
770
00:37:35,046 --> 00:37:37,549
to have to go through
the legal process.
771
00:37:37,590 --> 00:37:39,676
But a very important person
has to be located
772
00:37:39,718 --> 00:37:41,469
and her name's Shelly.
773
00:37:44,180 --> 00:37:47,183
[dramatic music]
774
00:37:51,813 --> 00:37:54,691
[dramatic music]
775
00:37:55,150 --> 00:37:56,067
* *
776
00:38:01,114 --> 00:38:03,033
- More than 25 years after
777
00:38:03,074 --> 00:38:06,536
the presumed mob hit
of Jimmy Casino,
778
00:38:06,578 --> 00:38:08,872
police have finally
IDed Richard Morris
779
00:38:08,913 --> 00:38:13,043
as one of the men involved
in the brutal home invasion.
780
00:38:13,084 --> 00:38:15,879
Improved DNA forensics
now pins Morris
781
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,132
to the rape of Jimmy's
girlfriend, Shelly Fisher.
782
00:38:19,174 --> 00:38:22,761
- Now we know
who was inside that house
783
00:38:22,802 --> 00:38:24,846
on New Year's Day, 1987.
784
00:38:24,888 --> 00:38:27,098
But Richard Morris
had no personal reason
785
00:38:27,140 --> 00:38:28,975
to kill Jimmy Casino.
786
00:38:29,017 --> 00:38:30,769
Somebody paid him to do it.
787
00:38:30,810 --> 00:38:33,897
Who paid Morris
to go kill Casino?
788
00:38:33,938 --> 00:38:37,275
And Richard Morris sat tight
789
00:38:37,317 --> 00:38:40,070
and kept his mouth closed.
790
00:38:41,071 --> 00:38:42,697
- But does placing him
at the scene
791
00:38:42,739 --> 00:38:44,699
mean prosecutors
can also secure
792
00:38:44,741 --> 00:38:47,202
a special conviction
for Jimmy's murder?
793
00:38:47,243 --> 00:38:50,622
- Law enforcement has databases
and Shelly needs to be located
794
00:38:50,663 --> 00:38:51,664
and she's contacted.
795
00:38:51,706 --> 00:38:53,208
For her, it's difficult.
796
00:38:53,249 --> 00:38:54,834
But she kind of does
the soul searching
797
00:38:54,876 --> 00:38:59,589
and decides that
she's willing to testify.
798
00:38:59,631 --> 00:39:03,301
Richard Morris is charged
with the Jimmy Casino murder.
799
00:39:03,343 --> 00:39:06,971
At trial, prosecutors
have Shelly's testimony
800
00:39:07,013 --> 00:39:08,932
plus the DNA evidence.
801
00:39:08,973 --> 00:39:10,809
And Shelly,
she was very courageous,
802
00:39:10,850 --> 00:39:14,646
came forward
and explained at trial,
803
00:39:14,688 --> 00:39:17,065
faced by the accused,
804
00:39:17,107 --> 00:39:19,651
the perpetrator who had done
this terrible thing to her,
805
00:39:19,693 --> 00:39:22,946
she explained to everyone in
that courtroom what happened.
806
00:39:24,864 --> 00:39:27,033
- During the trial,
they basically asked me
807
00:39:27,075 --> 00:39:28,910
to open up the evidence.
808
00:39:28,952 --> 00:39:31,246
And you could imagine,
looking at evidence
809
00:39:31,287 --> 00:39:33,164
that's blood
that's crumbling down
810
00:39:33,206 --> 00:39:34,874
because it's 30 years old,
811
00:39:34,916 --> 00:39:36,209
it did jog your memory
a little bit
812
00:39:36,251 --> 00:39:38,128
as what you're seeing.
813
00:39:38,169 --> 00:39:39,921
- And the evidence
that the defense
814
00:39:39,963 --> 00:39:42,841
hopes will pin the murder
on two earlier suspects
815
00:39:42,882 --> 00:39:46,011
are Jimmy's
stolen credit cards.
816
00:39:46,052 --> 00:39:49,097
- So Morris' defense pointed
to the credit card evidence.
817
00:39:49,139 --> 00:39:51,433
The two men that were found
with the stolen credit cards
818
00:39:51,474 --> 00:39:52,892
five days after the murder.
819
00:39:52,934 --> 00:39:54,102
They're saying, "Ah, you know,
820
00:39:54,144 --> 00:39:55,770
"there's two murderers,
821
00:39:55,812 --> 00:39:57,063
"and here's two guys
with the credit cards.
822
00:39:57,105 --> 00:39:58,398
"It's those two.
823
00:39:58,440 --> 00:39:59,983
It's Mark Corbett
and Joseph Orozco."
824
00:40:00,025 --> 00:40:03,194
Not a very strong argument.
825
00:40:03,236 --> 00:40:05,947
- We have one of the people
that were there.
826
00:40:10,243 --> 00:40:11,453
One of the people that were in
827
00:40:11,494 --> 00:40:12,704
Jimmy Casino's apartment
that night
828
00:40:12,746 --> 00:40:13,955
was Richard Morris for sure.
829
00:40:13,997 --> 00:40:15,123
I mean, his DNA was there,
830
00:40:15,165 --> 00:40:17,250
the girl was raped,
he was there.
831
00:40:17,292 --> 00:40:19,961
- You just can't have these
kinds of things go unpunished.
832
00:40:20,003 --> 00:40:21,921
And that's the responsibility
of the prosecutor
833
00:40:21,963 --> 00:40:25,091
to bring that evidence forth,
to explain the law to the jury,
834
00:40:25,133 --> 00:40:26,760
and to convince them
835
00:40:26,801 --> 00:40:30,805
that the only just verdict
would be guilty.
836
00:40:30,847 --> 00:40:33,391
- Will a case almost
three decades in the making
837
00:40:33,433 --> 00:40:36,311
finally result
in a guilty verdict?
838
00:40:36,353 --> 00:40:38,063
- The jury found Richard Morris
839
00:40:38,104 --> 00:40:40,190
guilty of murder
in the first degree,
840
00:40:40,231 --> 00:40:41,900
and further found
that he was guilty
841
00:40:41,941 --> 00:40:43,735
of the special circumstance
842
00:40:43,777 --> 00:40:45,487
of murder in the commission
of a robbery
843
00:40:45,528 --> 00:40:47,989
and murder in the commission
of a rape.
844
00:40:48,031 --> 00:40:51,993
Shelly's testimony,
plus the DNA evidence,
845
00:40:52,035 --> 00:40:53,161
that really sewed it up.
846
00:40:53,203 --> 00:40:54,871
That was a pretty powerful case
847
00:40:54,913 --> 00:40:55,872
against Richard Morris.
848
00:40:57,874 --> 00:41:00,168
- The rape kit
is what brought him down.
849
00:41:00,210 --> 00:41:02,003
Because he'd raped Shelly,
850
00:41:02,045 --> 00:41:04,089
he left behind the evidence
that brought him down.
851
00:41:09,427 --> 00:41:11,930
- Bottom line is, undeniably,
852
00:41:11,971 --> 00:41:13,848
he was there that night.
853
00:41:13,890 --> 00:41:17,852
The DNA was found
inside of a victim's body.
854
00:41:17,894 --> 00:41:19,312
I mean, that is just--
855
00:41:19,354 --> 00:41:21,022
no way you can get around that.
A trillion to one.
856
00:41:22,732 --> 00:41:24,275
- So Richard Morris
has been sentenced
857
00:41:24,317 --> 00:41:27,737
to the California state prison
for the rest of his life,
858
00:41:27,779 --> 00:41:31,157
without the possibility
of parole.
859
00:41:31,199 --> 00:41:33,993
- Because Morris
maintains his innocence,
860
00:41:34,035 --> 00:41:35,870
finding the second
masked gunman
861
00:41:35,912 --> 00:41:37,330
who helped carry out
the attack
862
00:41:37,372 --> 00:41:41,001
against Jimmy and Shelly
proves to be trickier.
863
00:41:41,042 --> 00:41:43,420
Some investigators believe
an earlier suspect
864
00:41:43,461 --> 00:41:45,880
might have left Morris
holding the bag.
865
00:41:45,922 --> 00:41:48,383
- Corbett's kind of
the mystery man here.
866
00:41:48,425 --> 00:41:51,344
Morris said that Corbett told
him that he did the murder,
867
00:41:51,386 --> 00:41:54,264
and he was paid $10,000.
868
00:41:54,305 --> 00:41:57,350
I mean, he could be lying
but I don't think so.
869
00:41:57,392 --> 00:42:00,061
And the problem is we don't
have anything else linking.
870
00:42:00,103 --> 00:42:02,147
All we have is
a parolee's statement
871
00:42:02,188 --> 00:42:05,191
that this other guy
did the case.
872
00:42:05,233 --> 00:42:07,569
So they really didn't have
much of a case on him.
873
00:42:07,610 --> 00:42:10,488
Corbett gets convicted
of a robbery murder
874
00:42:10,530 --> 00:42:12,365
in the state of Tennessee,
875
00:42:12,407 --> 00:42:14,117
doing a life sentence there.
876
00:42:14,159 --> 00:42:16,286
If you've been convicted
for life in jail
877
00:42:16,327 --> 00:42:17,787
without possibility of parole,
878
00:42:17,829 --> 00:42:20,206
why would you talk
to the cops about anything.
879
00:42:20,248 --> 00:42:22,542
- It may never be known
whether Mark Corbett
880
00:42:22,584 --> 00:42:25,545
had something to do
with Jimmy Casino's murder,
881
00:42:25,587 --> 00:42:29,132
but he too will spend the rest
of his life behind bars.
882
00:42:31,468 --> 00:42:33,928
- Jimmy Casino was
a guy that made it big,
883
00:42:33,970 --> 00:42:35,388
tried to live
bigger than life.
884
00:42:35,430 --> 00:42:38,099
And I think that he got
caught up in some things that
885
00:42:38,141 --> 00:42:40,518
people weren't gonna
forgive him for.
886
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,146
- The whole process of,
you know, doing the crime scene
887
00:42:43,188 --> 00:42:46,232
and trying to find the killers
and the assault people
888
00:42:46,274 --> 00:42:48,443
is to find closure
for everybody.
889
00:42:48,485 --> 00:42:50,904
The family, the children,
890
00:42:50,945 --> 00:42:52,405
for the girlfriend.
891
00:42:52,447 --> 00:42:54,491
They need that.
892
00:42:54,532 --> 00:42:56,242
- In a lot of ways,
Shane was robbed
893
00:42:56,284 --> 00:42:58,286
at the same time
Jimmy Casino was robbed
894
00:42:58,328 --> 00:43:01,206
because Jimmy Casino
wanted his son Shane
895
00:43:01,247 --> 00:43:03,458
to have everything in life
that he didn't have,
896
00:43:03,500 --> 00:43:07,379
and now Shane didn't even have
a father growing up.
897
00:43:07,420 --> 00:43:11,341
- I can't imagine
what Shane must have felt
898
00:43:11,383 --> 00:43:14,135
losing his dad.
899
00:43:14,177 --> 00:43:17,597
It has been over 30 years
and it's still sad.
900
00:43:17,639 --> 00:43:21,142
Makes me sad
to think about it.
901
00:43:21,184 --> 00:43:24,020
I feel like it's incomplete.
902
00:43:24,062 --> 00:43:25,980
If Jimmy was here right now,
903
00:43:26,022 --> 00:43:28,900
he would be doing stuff
with his son,
904
00:43:28,942 --> 00:43:33,363
and I would have liked
to had him meet my son.
905
00:43:33,405 --> 00:43:35,490
I miss Jimmy.
