1
Let me see if I got you some invoice numbers and that.
Laissez-moi vérifier si j'ai bien récupéré vos numéros de facture et tout ce qui va avec.
2
From a pile under his desk,
3
Fort Worth Detective Manny Reyes pulls out a murder file.
4
It starts small.
5
It's just a simple police report, maybe a few pictures.
6
And it just snowballs.
7
Yeah, it's 9-0-C-Charles.
8
Reyes' cold file bears the name of Jane Thompson.
9
16 years ago, she was beaten to death,
10
leaving behind her two sons,
11
who now want the case reopened.
12
Call case, Reyes.
13
The oldest brother called and just wanted to know the status of the case.
14
I didn't know anything about it.
15
We hadn't even considered looking at that case whatsoever.
16
So after putting them off for a while,
17
I went and got the case, opened it up.
18
It should be under service number 815.
19
Last one.
20
The more I read, everything's here.
21
What's wrong here?
22
It just seems to be falling in place as I'm reading the case itself.
23
One witness statement in particular catches Reyes' eye.
24
It is from Jane's son,
25
Josh Thompson, two years old at the time of his mom's murder,
26
and an apparent eyewitness to the crime.
27
He wasn't being told what to say.
28
Like, Josh, this is what happened, right?
29
The line of questioning was, what happened?
30
Where is she?
31
You know, and he answered those questions.
32
What I'm gonna do is we're gonna head towards the location.
33
He said that his mom was hit,
34
left out by some brush and brushes and stuff.
35
And the other part was that it was his dad.
36
The body was found right here.
37
They've closed this street down since then.
38
And then when I looked at the crime scene reports and I saw the crime scene photos,
39
what he was saying was making sense.
40
The body was a few feet away from the actual curb.
41
Obviously, that's where she was killed.
42
There was no signs of her being dragged and killed elsewhere.
43
And he agrees to meet with Josh Thompson and his older half-brother,
44
Val, at Val's house.
45
Just a question out of curiosity.
46
What made you decide to contact this?
47
Oh, man, because it never was closed.
48
My house was closed, wide open, man.
49
I mean, it's...
50
My little brother was there.
51
They're like, hey, we know you guys are busy and all,
52
and we're just wondering what the status in our mom's case was.
53
We felt like we've grown up now,
54
and we had to take care of something that should have been taken care of a long time ago.
55
For the first time in almost 20 years,
56
Josh tells his story to police.
57
I remember as soon as we got out of the car,
58
arguing, and I was in the back seat, of course.
59
So when she let me out the car, she sat me down.
60
And they just kept arguing,
61
they kept arguing, and he swung and hit her with his hand,
62
just by a fist.
63
Do you by chance remember what the arguing was about?
64
No. And the thing is,
65
he didn't come out and tell us,
66
OK, this is a conversation my mom and dad were having that night.
67
This is the location we were at.
68
It wasn't like that at all.
69
He just remembered a certain event that was extremely unusual for a two-year-old to see.
70
And he hadn't seen it before,
71
and he was real dramatic.
72
And that's what he told us.
73
The reason I remember is because it's the first time I saw my dad hit my mom.
74
And she fell.
75
She got up and put her hand in his face and then he hit her again.
76
Then once that happened, he took an object and he started beating in the head with it.
77
And then the next thing I know,
78
I'm back in the car.
79
And for me, I remember it was a purse sitting in my lap.
80
It was my mom's purse and there was blood on it.
81
And I asked him, where's mom?
82
And he was like, oh, she's fine.
83
She'll be okay.
84
I'm going to take you to your granny house.
85
And that was it.
86
She never got back in the car?
87
No. I remember she was surrounded by a whole lot of leaves.
88
I saw her laying on the ground.
89
And the one shocker of all that I got out of that first meeting was that the day that this happened,
90
when Bobby Woods dropped off his son at the grandmother's,
91
from that on, he had never made contact with him.
92
He just left and abandoned him that one day and never turned back.
93
When did you next see him again?
94
Never again.
95
Never.
96
Never seen him again.
97
After that day he came and brought my brother.
98
He never came back to the grandmother's house?
99
Never seen him.
100
Didn't see him at the funeral.
101
Didn't see him at any wakes.
102
Didn't see him at any gatherings.
103
Nothing.
104
Nothing.
105
I mean, it's apparent.
106
He disappeared for a while.
107
Disappeared.
108
Forever.
109
Forever.
110
It is unusual.
111
Too much of a coincidence that the last day your father saw you was that Friday afternoon.
112
Hello, Noella.
113
This is Detective Manny Reyes for the worst cold case.
114
I needed to get a 1990 autopsy report.
115
At the top of Reyes' suspect list is Jane Thompson's boyfriend at the time and Josh's biological father,
116
an ex-convict named Bobby Woods.
117
It turns out she was last seen on June 5th.
118
Depositions were taken.
119
Reyes zeroes in on depositions between the time of Jane's disappearance and the discovery of her body.
120
Again, just tell me what you remember from back then.
121
Remember, I really had a close relationship at one time.
122
Reyes unearths a former associate of Bobby Woods,
123
one who claims Bobby confided in him about the murder.
124
He's critical because he's pretty much a witness to what he said.
125
You know?
126
You go out there and you tell people what you did or what happened.
127
You know, you just, you do that, it's gonna come back.
128
Let's get to the part of Jane's disappearance.
129
He told her to turn around,
130
or something like he saw a rabbit or something,
131
he went and got the shotgun, he come back.
132
He told her to turn around,
133
and that's when he hit him in the back of the head with the shotgun.
134
And the shotgun broke, which is consistent with what the autopsy showed,
135
blind force trauma to the head.
136
On a Wednesday afternoon, Detective Manny Reyes prepares to arrest Bobby Woods for murder.
137
Reyes' best piece of evidence,
138
the couple's only child, Josh Thompson,
139
just two years old at the time and an alleged eyewitness to the crime.
140
When you pick him up at work, he knows it's serious.
141
It's a little more serious when somebody shows up at your work than they show up at your home.
142
It's just serious stuff.
143
Detectives transport the suspect downtown,
144
where Josh is waiting, with half-brother Vol and Vol's fiancee.
145
Sir, what am I here for?
146
Please.
147
Bonnie, you're in custody, like we've told you before,
148
because of something that happened a long time ago.
149
As a matter of fact,
150
the offense was in 1990.
151
We'll get to more details on that in a little bit.
152
But we are investigating the death of Jane Thompson.
153
I should have stayed at the fashion boutique with her.
154
At the what?
155
It's a fashion boutique.
156
Fashion boutique?
157
Beautique.
158
OK.
159
That's what she came up missing at.
160
At the fashion boutique?
161
Yes.
162
OK.
163
In 1990, Wood's statement made no mention of a fashion boutique.
164
Instead, he told police that Jane had disappeared,
165
but he took her to get food stamps.
166
It really surprised me.
167
I would have expected him to have rehearsed his story in his mind at least a thousand times.
168
If I'm ever arrested, if I'm ever questioned again in regards to Jane Thompson,
169
this is the story that I gave,
170
and this is the story I'm going to stick to.
171
And it turned out that he changed it all.
172
What did you do to the rest of that afternoon once you couldn't find her?
173
Well, second time, I went back across the street with Dasha.
174
We sit there.
175
His news story turned out now that he spent hours there where he had dropped her off at the boutique.
176
He spent hours there looking for her,
177
walking up and down, checking all the locations.
178
Then all of a sudden another shop was closing,
179
And I asked the guy,
180
I said, did you see a black woman wearing a brown shirt and yellow shorts?
181
He said, yeah.
182
He said she was talking with two guys.
183
And I said, two guys?
184
I said, where did he go?
185
He said, they were sitting in the car down here.
186
I said, how long ago?
187
Oh, he said hours ago.
188
The thing is, if that had really happened,
189
you would have at least brought that up,
190
if not to the family,
191
but to the police back then,
192
and say, hey, you need to look for two guys in a car because that's where she was last seen.
193
That would have been brought up back in 1990.
194
That would have been investigated in 1990.
195
And of course, he didn't bring any of that up in 1990.
196
Reyes turns the questioning to Woods' criminal past,
197
including his conviction for armed robbery.
198
Woods lays blame for the crime on his nephew.
199
What kind of weapon did your nephew have then?
200
He had a short, sawed-off shotgun.
201
So it was a sawed-off shotgun?
202
What I took from him.
203
So that was good to know
204
that we could actually put the possession of a shotgun on him a week prior to the murder.
205
And the day of the murder,
206
we believe the shotgun is what was used to hit her.
207
And you never were told or you have no idea how she died.
208
You don't know if she was shot or strangled, drowned, anything like that?
209
No, I'm going to tell you nothing.
210
We had reached the point where I was going to start telling him,
211
OK, now wait a minute.
212
You know, you said this, now it's this.
213
You said this, now it's this.
214
And everything that he had told me was going to be contradicted.
215
OK, let me go get that statement that you gave back then,
216
and I'll show it to you.
217
See if we can see if it'll refresh your memory a little bit.
218
I don't have an attorney or somebody because all this is going through
219
and I don't know if I'm going on or what's going on.
220
And you want to show me statements and I don't know what's going on.
221
No, it's your statement I want to show you.
222
The one that belongs to you.
223
I have an attorney to look at it with me because right now I don't know what I'm getting into.
224
So I think he realized,
225
well, what I just said,
226
I don't think is what I said back then.
227
What I'm being charged with, it's murder.
228
So he realized that it wasn't going to be very good after that.
229
Come on, you got to know who I am.
230
You know his name?
231
You got to know me, man.
232
Exactly, it's not Vol.
233
Vol, V-O-L.
234
I think the anger came afterwards when we found out he was denying it
235
and he was making up stories and stuff like that.
236
That's when the anger came.
237
I hope this helps you a little bit,
238
one way or the other.
239
A lot of it.
240
At day's end, Bobby Woods sits in a jail cell.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
