( laughs ) new windex outdoor all-in-one. a streak-free shine in half the time. s.c. johnson, a family company. breaking news tonight, a young mom, just like millions of moms across america, goes out for an evening walk, on a rural roadway, not far from her home. talking away on her cell phone, a friend on the other end. the friend on the other end hears screams. and also the young mom screaming, please, don't take me. her voice has never been heard again. she has vanished without a trace. that cell phone later found discarded, thrown into someone's lawn just two miles away. tonight, where is kristi cornwell?

>> along a country road, a single mom kidnapped taking a nightly stroll. new today, her cell phone has been found, more than three miles from where she was taken. >> a property owner mowing his grass right near the road spotted the cell phone. he picked it up, turned it on, and recognized immediately that it belonged to christy. >> it would have forensic evidence. it would have had fingerprint evidence. they may be able to recognize a voice. >> they're going to look for strangers. on a statistical basis, it's much more likely that she was kidnapped by a client, a neighbor, a friend, somebody who knew her. >> the words that she used, the fact that she was on a cell phone and somebody did it anyway. the location, as i understand it, is not a location where somebody would be driving around looking for a random victim. >> you'd have to go out and

interview almost everybody she knew, particularly the probationes or parolees. you can't eliminate anyone. >> and tonight, live to anaheim. a quite community reeling after a suitcase is opened to reveal a body. the petite small-framed young woman remains unidentified. who is she? how did she come to be murdered and then thrown away like trash? tonight cops work o around the clock to make an i.d. >> i reached over into the zum ter, pulled up the flap, and i discovered the body. >> a shocking discovery. a 20-something woman's body found in a suitcase. police looking for who did it. >> officers received a call about 7:00 this morning from a subject that had been looking for recyclables in the dumpster. while looking for recyclables he came across a suit case and

while looking at the suit case he came across a woman. >> man trolling the dumpster finds the woman. the police find a nude, small-framed woman inside a suit case. the suit case just about three feet long, according to one witness. >> it was probably about a three-foot suitcase. when my manager opened up the suitcase, you could see a shoulder and an arm. there where no clothes on it. >> an autopsy just conducted, trying to determine cause of death. >> how they got it in a suitcase that small, i don't know. you know, it's horrible. also tonight, lady justice does a backflip. a 27-year-old savannah policeman, father of two little children just 7 weeks old and almost 2, shot dead when he rescues a homeless man from a vicious attack by street thugs. the killer gets the death

penalty. but tonight the courts bend over backwards for the killer. and former president jimmy carter and the pope over in rome inject themselves siding with the killer, the cop killer. no offense, but why? the alert tone goes out again over the radio, and this time they said that it was an officer down. as i turned to come into the parking lot, my headlights came across a police officer face down on the parking lot. >> that officer, mark mcfail. while working an off-duty security job, he stepped in to stop a fight, and he was shot twice. this officer started cpr. at that moment nothing else had

mattered. >> mark had just had a baby. these are all things you think of a little bit later. he was out there in uniform, working an extra job for money for his family and the new baby. >> he says the violent way he died while trying to stop violence was unforgivable. >> he chose to engage because of what the officer represents, and he shoots him. and when he's down on the ground and he's trying to push back up to live and he stands over the top of him with what people in the crowd said was a smirk executed this police officer. >> a jury only took a few hours to find him guilty, and a few more hours to send him to death road. the primary reason he was convicted? the witness testimony. the slain police officer's wife agrees. >> they were adamant about what they saw when they saw it. >> they believe that the

he committed the crime and that the jury's recommended punishment should stand. >> good evening. i want to thank you for being with us. a young mom, like millions of mers across america, goes out for an etching walk, along a rural roadway not far from her home. taking her cell. the friend on the other end hears screams and hears the young mom scream, please, don't take me. her voice has never been heard again. she's vanished without a trace. tonight where is kristi cornwell? breaking new developments in the search for a missing single mom. kidnapped along a walk almost a week ago. at first the only trace of kristi cornwell were her belongings, left on a country road in blairsville. her cell phone was found. >> it was found friday night. dive teams went into the water on notally lake road. today, teams went to the road

where she was abducted. >> what we're attempting to do is conduct a systematic search of the area surrounding the abduction sight as far out as possible. >> they have brought in blood hounds to help the with searching. they have about 100 people on the scene. >> authorities are stopping cars on jones creek road. asking drivers if they saw anything friday night. as they wait for that one tip that turns into a viable lead. >> we're not going to stop. we're still not going to stop. it doesn't matter how long it takes. there will never be an end to this search. >> straight out to eric gems with wrga news radio. eric, what happened? >> that's what everyone would like to know tonight, and that's what they're doing. a woman disappears after going out for a walk. she's on the phone with her boyfriend, the boyfriend hears screams, hears her say, no, don't take me, and that's the

last anyone has heard from her. that's the big question tonight, where is she? more people getting involved searching a wider area. and they're as optimistic as possible at this point six days after this occurred. >> everybody e, this san everyday mom. take a look at kristi cornwell. she's out walking not far from her own home in the evening, not late at night, barely 9:00 p.m., talking on her cell phone like so many of us do when they're out exercising. on the other end, the boyfriend hears her screaming, please don't take me. kristi cornwell has not been seen alive againlet. her cell phone has been found, obviously thrown out the window of a vehicle about two miles a way on a lawn. straight out to our producer leticia lance standing by outside the command center. leticia lance, what can you tell me about two vehicles that the

cops are interested in? >> one is a white suv, the other is a tan or gold colored sub compact car, which could be either a nissan or toyota. >> when you say subcontract what do you mean by that? four-door or two-door? let me break it down for you. four-door or two-door? >> they're not saying. sub compact car, nissan or toyota, tan or gold colored. >> let's put the photos up again. leticia, where are they getting apb on the two vehicles, the white suburban suv or you see this tan or gold-colored toyota. where are they getting these descriptions? >> these are coming in from leads. i was stopped today by law enforcement. they're taking people's licenses. they're wanting to know where these vehicles came from. they don't think the vehicleses are from this area.

and the population in blairsville is only about # 20 people. it's a small community, a tight-knit community. so if there's a car that doesn't belong or a person that doesn't belong, they'd be able to recognize it. >> joining me now is a very special guest. we are taking your calls live. help us. we are involved in the search for this young woman. no idea. no real lead. where is kristi cornwell. out to richard corn well. her brother. richard, thank you for joining us tonight. what are cops telling you tonight? >> they briefed us on the search today, using helicopters, atvs, ground searches. horseback. they've got canine teams. they've got divers that are searching lake nottely, primarily around bridges. so they are continuing their --

continuing to throw all their assets that they can at the search. >> richard kron well is joining us. this is her brother joining us from blairsville, georgia. you mentioned canine dogs. richard, did the dogs pick up her scent along the road where she was walking? >> i'm not aware of the details of that. i know they have used canine units in the vicinity of the abduction sight. they used canine units close to the cell phone location. so they're using canine units throughout the search. the cell phone was found a few miles way. >> richard, how far away had she gotten. i know she was walking along a rural road, not a lot of traffic on the road. how far had she gotten from the home? >> well, it was the loop that she made on a routine basis. i was a couple of miles.

so it was some point in that two-mile round trip that the an dukds occurred. >> so not even two miles away. this young mom -- everybody, there is not some hollywood celebrity out at 2:00 a.m., 4:00 a.m. hitting all the night spots. this is a young mom out taking an evening stroll for exercise, talking on her cell phone. she's gone. help us find kristi cornwell. the tip line 706-439-6038. christy's younger brother richard said she's a loving mother, sister, and aunt. she's a former probation officer, counselor. he wants the public to know what kind of a strong-willing person she is. >> i want to get her face out on the television as much as possible so we can ultimately get someone that has spotted her lately.

last seen walking here on tuesday night a little after 9:00. investigators say she was on her cell phone talking to her boyfriend in atlanta. >> she says a car was pulling up to her and as she was he was on the phone with her he heard signs of a struggle. he reportedly heard her screaming and heard don't take me and that's when the phone

call cut off. >> nearly 100 people from more than a dozen different law enforcement agencies combed through the area where kristi cornwell's cell phone had been found. >> we were looking for anything that could have been left or disposed of, anything that could have been thrown out a window, any additional item of evidence that might be beneficial to the investigation at this point. >> we keep hoping, keep love alive, and continue to do so until we find her. >> straight back to eric gems with wrga news radio, was this a normal routine? did she take this walk every evening? i don't know if it was routine, if this was something she did. you mentioned earlier it had just gotten cool out and this is the time she would have been in that place. >> i don't even know if it's dark at this time of the night. we're talking about a very nice area in georgia, blairsville,

georgia. it's calm, beautiful. right there on the carolina border. joining me along is leticia lance at the command center where everyone is searching for kristi cornwell is a very dear friend of hers. sherry kimsey is with us. sherry, thank you for joining us. tell us about kristi's routine. did she take this walk often? >> she walked late in the afternoons or evenings because it was cooler. i think that she had taken a fall earlier and had an injury, and was trying to walk off the soreness and pain. this happened a few weeks earlier. she was exercising, trying to get rid of the pain, i think. >> sherry kimsey, joining us at

the command center. miss kimsey, we keep hearing that personal items were found, and that is how police are marking the spot from where she was taken. what personal items did she take with her to go on a walk? >> i'm not sure about that. i've not been in contact with the authorities. i've pretty much stayed in contact with her family and close friends. i do know that i think she dropped a shoe during the struggle, and, of course, the cell phone thing was thrown out later, but that's about all i know about that. >> so she had what? a foot or a leg injury? >> i'm not sure. she had taken a fall at her apartment. >> right. >> and she had briefly told me about it and said that, you know, she was in some pain. i don't know. i think it was her back. >> so back to richard corn well, her brother, wasn't she in school studying? >> yeah.

she was between semesters. she's been attending dalton state college in dalton, georgia, studying medical lab technology. she was between semesters, so she was staying at my parents' home rather than her apartment in dalton. >> richard, describe the area for me. it's rural, beautiful country. it almost seems as if it would not be an outsider. this is a rural road. who would know about it? this is a two-lane asphalt county road. about 12 miles from the city of blairsville so, it is a rural area, about halfway between blue ridge, georgia, and blairsville, georgia. >> everybody, this is where the blue mountain s are starting ont

appalachian trail. >> caller: you're the best thing that happened to tv besides color. >> i'm going to get a recording of tonight's show. and when the twins are fussing at mommy, i'm going to play it for them, what you just said, all right? >> i appreciate that. >> what's your question. >> caller: i was wondering, has the boyfriend been ruled out as a suspect? i saw her mother this morning, she is the one that called 911. that doesn't add up to me. >> susan. interesting scenario. leticia lance, explain that. how did that unfold? >> the boyfriend called the mother first. he told her what happened. he was horrified about it. the mother called 911, and he also called 911 right after that. >> we'll be joined when we come back by marc klaas and joshua perper. we're taking your calls and we'll unleash the lawyers.

a mother of a 15-year-old son, disappears out on a walk in a rural area. just disappears. the last known contact was with her boyfriend in atlanta, he on the cell phone with her at the time when she appears to be in distress, sounds like a struggle going on. the last thing he reports hearing is her saying don't take me and then he loses the kekd and there's been no sign hoff her since then. someone might have known her routine. she e took this path every night. she was a probation officer, maybe somebody seeking revenge. >> i think taking the same path, someone seeking revenge is extremely far-fetched. eleanor dixon, and peter odom. and joining us from seattle, ann bremner. eleanor, typically the criminal will come back and get the person that sent them to jail, not the probation officer? they kept them out of jail?

that doesn't even make any sense. >> no. we don't even see cases like that. you're right, nancy. it's not usually the judge or the prosecutor tore defense attorney. it's the person who made the charges. >> especially the probation officer, for pete's sake. she wouldn't have anything with him going to jail. in factor she would have something to d women staying out of jail, so that theory doesn't make any sense. peter odom in your practice of law, how many times have you seen is somebody come back and get a probation officer? >> very rarely. let me just take issue with you and the other prosecutor, nancy. probation officers get up close and personal with the criminals all the time. they go to their houses, take urine samples from them. >> she has not been an officer since 2002. >> there's no evidence that there's a former probationer involved at all.

that's pure speculation. >> ann. >> i was going to say you're the best thing since black-and-white perry mason on ter i have. they either go after the judge or their own lawyer. the prosecution rarely. the probation officer, almost never. cock-a-doodle-do.

abduction, and the gbi is using that word. >> she was abducted, placed in a vehicle, and removed from the area. that speaks for itself. she is in danger. >> we would just plead that they would have mercy on her and return her safely back to her family. and we just want to say that we need her, and she has -- she has a 15-year-old son that needs her very much in his life. >> how many times, ladies, have you walked or jogged along, talking on your cell phone? this young mom walking along a rural road near her own home. this is not a heavily traveled area. suddenly abducted. boyfriend on the other end of the phone hears her scream, please, no. don't take me. she has not been seen again. kristi cornwell, 5'5", 150 pounds. dark shoulder-length hair. she was wearing a dark t-shirt,

tan shorts. she has custody of her 15-year-old son who needs her desperate desperately. take a look at her. kristi cornwell. i'm taking a caller. >> caller: my question being, with her being into the -- with her colleagues, have they questioned the colleagues or anything of that nature? >> you mean the other students where she was in school? she hasn't been a probation officer since 2002. >> caller: right. but what about the students in the school. >> good question. what do we know, eric gems from wrga radio? >> she was in between semesters. any great details are not being released that time, and there's no word as to whether that's helpful at this point. >> to marc klaas, wondering how routinely she took this walk and wondering if anyone was familiar. it was a loop, a loop, according

to her brother, who's with us tonight. someone could very easily see her walking this loop. >> that's absolutely true. nancy, i would look at this as a bit of a cautionary tale. this is a woman who was a probation officer and taught self-defense as well. if someone could come and snatch her cell phone and take her with her training, what hope does a child have with a child predator? i think people have to take this into considering and i think it might be wise for women by themselves to have some form of self-defense and for children not to be out by themselves. >> a lot of times, women have a false sense of security when they're out and have their cell. >> absolutely. because she did know self defense, maybe there was a false sense of security. the martial arts professionals

will tell you, it can still happen. women should be walking with other women even if it's in a familiar place because women are victimized more than men are. >> nancy from massachusetts. >> caller: hi, nancy, thanks for taking my call. i'm wondering kristi's frame of mid prior to the disappearance. her statement, please don't take me, seems strange. i'm wondering if this is something she could have planned. >> to her brother, had she been known to stay away overnight or disappear? >> oh o, absolutely not. she had plans to come visit my home in tennessee actually this weekend. so she was -- she was happy. and there ee just no reason why she would cause this to happen. >> and to sherry kimsey, a very

close friend of kristi's outside the command center, what can you tell me about her as a person, and what was her state of mind at the time she was taken? >> well, as far as her state of mind, the last time i talked to her, she was just extremely happy. she was happy with school. she was doing well. she was looking forward to life, and the thing that -- there's two things about kristi that really struck me when we first became friends. number one, she is a true woman of faith. she's an independent person. it was a little surprising that she was overtaken. i believe that that was probably a sudden thing that happened. she's a very -- just a very -- like myself, very independent. sometimes that can get us into trouble.

but she's a kind, sweet person. she would help anybody in a minute. she and i had many conversations about the good lord and her faith, and that's what we're all doing here is praying. >> right. with me is sherry kimsey. along with her, leticia lance and kristi's brother, richard corn well. you're seeing photos of a young mom who has disappeared into thin air out near her home. taking a walk in the evening, talking on a cell phone. how many millions of women do that every evening after work. the tip line, 706-439-6038. please, help find kristi. we're switching gears. live to anaheim. take a listen. about 7:00 this morning my neighbors came over and knocked on my door and said the guy that takes the trash in the morning

collecting cans and bottles and stuff thought he saw a body in the back >> a man looking for aluminum cans got more than he was looking for. a blood-stained suitcase, inside, a woman's body. police say the woman appears to be in her 20s with no obvious signs of trauma. >> we have no identification. appears to be a female, early 20s. >> investigators believe she probably died within 24 hours of her disposal. a witness claims he noticed a puncture wound in the woman's back which could be from a bullet or stab wound, he claimed. how did a woman in her 20s end up dead, folded in a suit case like yesterday's laundry? >> i was probably about like a three-foot suit case, like a small bag you carry, very thin one, canvas bag, green canvas bag. you wouldn't think there would be a full-size body in there. >> not a child. not a child. yornl nalley it was reported as a child. i think originally because of

the size of the suit kaz, that's what they thought. but as of now it's a female adult. >> straight out to john baird, joining us from knx 1070. you open a suit case and find a body. what led the person to open the suitcase to start with? >> he was there. he lives in this working-class neighborhood. he was looking for cans and bolls. it was 7:00 in the morning. he wanted to collect some. sees the suit case, sees what he thinks is a body, goes to an adjacent property owner, looks again, sees the skin. sees the trauma. calls 911. they've done an autopsy. the police think she was murdered, she had only been there a few hours, and she was killed some place else. >> to clark gannon, our producer

on the story. what can you tell us? >> people thought it was a small child. a two-foot by three-foot suitcase been an adult female was in there, in her 20s, she had dark hair. there was no identification on the victim. >> and to sergeant shaun morgan from the police department. thank you for being with us. how long do you believe the woman had been dead? >> our initial report, a few hours prior to finding the body, shortly after 7:00 a.m. on saturday. >> i bet whoever put her in the suit case had know idea it would have been opened so quickly. police found an unidentified woman in a suit case in anaheim. police trying to feverishly make an i.d. of her. to tonight's safety tips. with millions of people trying to squeeze in a summer vacation, how to stay healthy on the road.

to find something like that, 7:00 in the morning, getting ready to go to work, have something like that happen. why our neighborhood? why here? because it's probably 200 to 300 feet back there where they dropped the body in the dumpster. why they picked that particular dumpster, i don't know, or this particular neighborhood. but i don't think it -- you know, it's anyone from around here. you would think somebody came here and dropped the body. >> straight out to dr. joshua

perper chief medical examiner, author of "when to call the doctor." dr. perper, what does it say about the condition of the woman if they cannot make identification? >> i think they can make a fast identification because the body was not decomposed. they can broadcast an electronic image of her face. even if she has some discoloration or injury on the face, they can edit that. that can be ee raesed and get identification in a very short time. i've gotten identifications within half an hour from people calli calling. >> to diana, a forensic artist, one of 26 certified forensic artists in the world. what would be the challenge of trying to reconstruct what she looked like in life? >> as long as i have a clear photo of the deceased, i would study the photograph, open the eye, do all the maurmts, redau

her face, and then it would be put out to the public. people are identified according to proportion. as long as you open the eyes, swelling or decomposition, a forensic artist could see through that and bring the person back the life. >> you're with us from the police department. how are you going to go about trying to identify the victim? that would be step number one. before you can really start pursuing the perpetrator? i'll be right back with dr. sergeant shean morgan. i lost his satellite. let me throw that out to bill majewski, former detective. how do you do that? >> if the fingerprints are available, facial characteristics, if the face is visible. you have dental records. i mean the police are confronted with two simultaneous problem here, one, identifying the body as quickly as they can. also they go to a database, a

missing persons database. they should be looking into checking with the local police departments. find out if anybody was reported missing. they have to solve the crime. clearly this woman was murdered. they can speak to finding out the motive once she's identified. but there -- >> out to the lines. to trinita in illinois. hi, how are you. >> caller: good evening. how are you. >> i'm fine. what's your question? >> caller: have the police been compiling any woman coming up missing in in area? >> good question. what about it, john? >> basically the police told us today they cannot match any missing personses report to a female in her 20s. they're still looking. it's going to be up to the coroner's office. they just don't know. >> what can they do? they can't try finding the

persperp until they identify the victim. >> what can they do? >> they're trying to check for surveillance. there may not be any. they're hoping for a shot in the dark. to our understanding they have not been successful. >> to eleanor, what does it say to you. you prosecute things like this all the time, that the victim was folded up and put in a suitcase. >> i'm not a psychologist, but certainly it shows she was treated worse than trash in a sense, thrown away very quickly. it's so good the body was found so close in time after death. this is a good thing for the state. >> everyone, a very disturbing story next. a young police officer gunned down trying to save a homeless person from a vicious beating by street thugs. he's shot dead, leaving behind two little children. the killer gets the death penalty. but before it's implemented, suddenly the courts are bending over backward to help the killer!

and joining in the frey, former president jimmy carter and the pope sitting over in the vatican have decided to come to the aid of the killer. no disrespect, but why? take a listen. ♪ >> since 1989, one of these police memorial roses represents officer mark mcphail. friends knew him as mack. >> he was a great family man. loved everyone close to him. was a truly a good man. >> new information coming into us in the case of georgia death row inmate troy davis. the supreme court is ordering a new hearing for davis who spent 18 years on row for killing a police officer 20 years ago. >> it's still tough. i drive by the cemetery all the time. and it's tough for me to go in, but i think when this is

resolved, i think i'll probably have the opportunity to go by there, you know, and just sit down with him. >> straight out to annalisa mcphail. this is the mother of the murdered officer, mark mcphail, who came to the aid of a homeless person, gunned down. mchlt mcphail, thank you for being with us. are you stunned that now this is going back down for another evidentiary hearing? >> caller: nancy, is this you? is this you? >> yes, dear. go ahead. >> caller: thank you for talking to me. i'll absolutely stunning and besides that, e-mai'm kind of a. we've been going through this for all these years and we were hoping it was coming to an end.

or they saw him shooting the cop. now where we're at in this state, witnesses are now saying they don't even know who shot him. >> but that's only what i think two or three of all those eyewitnesses have recanted? >> correct. >> some of them are saying they don't know what happened. nobody's said no, he didn't do it, did they? >> exactly. they're either saying, you know, someone else shot him or they don't know who did it, but they're not saying he didn't confess. >> this is so wrong. this case has been through about how many levels, eleanor dixon, very quickly, on the death penalty case, how many times has this thing been reviewed? >> times before trial, times after trial, state and federal. so it's as many as ten or more. >> 20 years later, this cop still cannot rest in peace. it's just wrong. everyone, i want to stop and remember marine lance corporal
