6:30 am
for forced labor stress industrial injury. corporal punishment. oh no. words with which we are all familiar. are you certain that the world you live in abolish slavery long ago? my name is jason, wherever you are, you did you remember me? right? mm. he'd been searching the river. it was pretty obvious. he had muddy boots
6:31 am
on. he was arrogant. he was sitting there like this with his muddy blue and you know, flicking mud all over the floor. and he just like he was king of the world in thought. he was aggressive, even at that time as far as as a how he we handled himself. can he got that feeling that he was searching for a criminal and that's when he told me that my son was a drug dealer. you are, you're here for next semester. she kinda has told us that he wasn't just using marijuana that he was actually selling it on campus. and he is had
6:32 am
a felony against him and they hadn't charged him with it yet. but it was pending to values of deliveries, sauces. they took place on campus, both own their house. so they're kazi and on. and then he told us that andrew was a confidential informant. who asked for you to do is to use buys from either or you have to wear away or you have to go by merrill, i didn't even know what that was and had no idea what he is. even talking about what what he that meant each individual we do, we are due to deals on. okay, so you have to to neil: i've heard of it as thinking, well this is susan andrew. i mean, how can he, how could miss hockey, talking about the same guy? i mean, just, ah, agent webber told us that they believe, or he believed that he,
6:33 am
andrew was on the run because he had to make these buys by may 1st. and he only done half of them. you don't jerk were me a rose garden with you from strauser you know, our work anymore in the start of the watery rosalyn. i was just blown away. i mean here my son is missing and. and now they tell me he's a drug dealer or i maybe got all of them didn't make sense to me. but none of that made sense. nothing made. sounds mean pamius didn't know what to do. i mean, as far as her what even to believe really am though and where to turn in then sergeant helgren's son wanted us to do a press conference. we love you and we want you. we need to to come
6:34 am
home. everything will be okay, way pleaded for andrew on that news conferenced to come in like they wanted us to have him turn himself him. we love you. and we once you home with us, everything will be okay. well, i frankly not recall the ride ha or anything, cuz yeah, we up and left. i was kind of in free fall, it just seemed like it was snowballing. rapidly, everything seemed to be fine. i mean, there were no red flags, no, nothing. that's what's making this so difficult for us as law enforcement, it's i mean, ah, with
6:35 am
the school they had a vigil to other students put together, and they asked mander to talk eric, him. i said some worries for a little speech and i'll just beg and farm to come home if you are in trouble or just come home, want to help with your friends. ah, most of the electrical program missouri as far as with faculty and students. you know, people are pretty generous and, and they're going to give of their time and they're gonna, they're gonna form these search parties and they're going to go your scour. oh we're wherever law enforcement has identified us as potential places to walk. ah,
6:36 am
the campus police should obviously are going to go back to class. that basically turn to say where you are, any more students going missing? i was like, what makes no sense? is there a black hole, pine tree somewhere they didn't tell anybody about and people are falling into it? ah, we went just to places that we had gone or if we've got to go cruising or something all or smoke and we like drive down all the roads we go and, but all has together and tried her hardest to find something, get some sort of clues as to what happened or where he was or, and what was going on. but didn't come up with anything and started to seem like there was something else going on. and we learned that the college police department was the ones investigating this situation. campus police are supposed to make sure that you behave,
6:37 am
make sure you're following the rules of the campus. she snuck baron to your room, look out for the campus place. that's their job. and the campus police should have turned the situation over to another agency. immediately. they just don't have the experience and training necessary to deal with this situation. andrew sat at the end, the f. c. s student and disappeared on may 1st last seen leaving is dharm at the campus of the north dakota state college of science. as parents are john and tammy tammy, good to have you on news in this morning. give me an evaluation of where this search for andrew is at it. it's basically don cole with as far as the campus police are concerned. and we're, we're not gonna stop looking for it a living hell. you know, i think it's a living now it's july. 8th is the funds that are other than that. so. so
6:38 am
it's, it's fairly, a bad time a year. and now he's gone to how do you feel that the state college of science has been in dealing with this situation? it seems like they're not doing anything. andrews case just made me feel frustrated. but once you start hearing that other stations are having just as much difficulty getting basic answers, you realize there's something more going on. people were just trying to come up with theories and i think that's natural when you don't have a lot of answers, you want to find something i would say probably after the 2nd week started having some doubts about how tall is simone
6:39 am
b and take care of their investigative skills were pretty limited as lance, when i could see and all we thought that they were probably doing his best. they could, i don't know. i guess they didn't seem to frantic about trying to find him, i guess. but i asked him if they had checked with any of the other vit surveillance stuff in town. in all as far as seni and andrew are seeing a movement at his car moved. you know though, i says, well, did you check with the train and the and the tax season, any that stuff if, if handers gotten any about and checked in fargo, if any anybody seen him there or anything like that? oh no, that's good idea. i think it was just i don't know what they were doing. i mean the other than waiting for a phone call. i guess i don't understand what you're doing. this went on for i
6:40 am
say weeks and nothing. ah, fresh news to day folks in the andrew sat a case the young man we've all been searching for since he went missing on may 1st . now warrant has been issued for andrew's arrest. static is wanted on drug charges . details of these charges are still emerging, but andrew was allegedly caught selling marijuana on 2 occasions on april, 4th, and april night, 2013. 1 sale was for 20 bucks. the other was for $60.00. mm . was like, are you kidding me? all of this for $80.00 worth of pot. my son is missing for $80.00 worth of pot. i was wild, wild show me a campus, reach not fine. $80.00 worth of time.
6:41 am
i remember waking up the news that he had been charged and i'll say, what is this? i was this even a thing they can do. this is completely or try to get our friend home. and now you're gonna throw some kind of bogus charge. yeah. like i had not put it together at all. how does warned has happened now that he's gone missing or crime that he commit? where did they see him were like wow to why is that happening now? i knew it was everything was just confusing little mess for a while there. like that whole month was the most confusing thing at summer. happened the end of the file in the warranty, i think on monday, and they thought the other police have to get involved for it. all just kind of everybody's looking for him that i think that was the reasoning for filing the charges. so that kind of shut down the public's willingness to help.
6:42 am
nobody wants to look for a drug dealer. my own mother to this day believes that andrew was a drug dealer. anybody that knew him knew there was more to the story. i assume that, you know, he just took off, this is just more and he could handle, but at the same time i, i had this idea that yeah, but where is it? where's it going? where do you, where's it going to go in your next check? will be original, walton that we see if you don't check 11 me if i use contact with you, i'm just gonna assume you don't our work anymore and that i'm just, i got the warranty for us, but i
6:43 am
was having a panic here, sitting in the pedicure chair with my feet in the water and sergeant harrison called he said, what are you doing? and i said, i'm having a paddock hearing is, are you alone? and i'm like, no the girls here. you know what he goes? where is john? and i said he's on a fishing trip. get him home. ah, i was actually up fishing with my buddies, just kind of get a weekend away. ah. tammy had called me that they had found a body in the river. how often i knew it was handled. ah, i just got to the house. of course we're waiting. the sheriff showed up with
6:44 am
tammy's pastor and told that it was after ah, you a tool that was back your eyes and your post. yeah. that it would stop you from having real friends and finding a go friend playing video game at the station using a couple of them for the so we formed the solution of what sleep it's a little under a ga resume with much for to do stuff is no longer going, of course to make video games a high paying job. you have to be gifted and quick with it. hang on to a squint, a spike chip installation in particular the lithium vitamin. this sounds
6:45 am
a webpage been clear from young's produce park even established yet gala boy, when you mouse storm you mothers deal with adult. you mean mules, florida guy of the owner. but the outside vehicle it will still be sucked it these it's odd to do. i also use ah, you know what, where is he, you know, but it's all different. so when you finally, when they finally found the body and then you knew that he was dead enough, i murmured, just like i couldn't keep my eyes dry because this is just like the reality. now, you know, is tough to i mean, deep down, you kind of knew it because there's been a long time. you just didn't wanna accept it until smacked in the face.
6:46 am
6:47 am
a suicide. he was just waiting on the coroner, and once he found the gun, he would be confirmed that it was a suicide. mm. mm . so the 1st day i met tammy, she decided, i wanna talk to the news. so i walked in, i didn't know what to expect, you know what i mean, we had heard about what was happening, but i didn't know i was just walking into this. and tammy said my son was killed and i had a call my producers like, hey, this is actually your story today. i know you just wanted me to get a sound by here, but this is your story. she says her son was killed. mm. under statics, mom tammy sat. i spoke at a local radio station today saying she believed her son was murdered. we discovered that when andrew was found on june 27th,
6:48 am
he wasn't wearing the same clothes he might missing and cameras. in his dorm caught this footage, he was last seen wearing this sweatshirt, but when his body was bound, he was wearing a different jacket. ah, he was shot in the head. his backpack was weighted down and he was thrown in the river with the backpack or rocks, was kind of the kicker for me. and like if you're going kill yourself, he can do that anywhere. why would you need to make your body disappear? who and who was shot was a 22. andrew went in to the red river and he came up on the minnesota side of the red river. between him leaving that door. and when he was shot, there was a change of there were rocks in the backpack for me personally. andrew was murdered
6:49 am
. makes more sense than what the cops could come up was. and all they could come up with is a suicide. like, well, that's it, guys. yeah, rocks in his backpack tied to his body. that doesn't sound like a suicide. it sounds like murder one on one in this developing story. tammy, static is fighting back tears as she talks about not having answers in her son's death. just really hasn't been any effort to keep the here we updated. the static family is bringing their own attorneys to the fight. and now they want the f b i to investigate. i think people knew it was a major story right away. when that happened, people knew something was going on. that just doesn't happen. a rural college student doesn't just get shot in the head and found in a river like that. something else had to be happening. they're not going to do their jobs to let the f b i get involved,
6:50 am
somebody that can look at this case fresh without this suicide in the back of their minds, you know, planted by the campus police and everything. i want them to look at like the whole case objectively. when i met tammy that day and had a personal conversation with tammy, i thought, okay, we have the power of journalism. we have the power of finding public records. we have the power of being able to hold those who are paid by tax dollars accountable . ah talk, okay. meaning that she just has a lot of questions and can't seem to figure out where to get the answers. do you know where she should be looking? no, i really don't know where she should be looking on on that a it. i think that a lot of people have a lot of questions to understand the invest in the process. you just really have to
6:51 am
look at the timeline of events that took place when andrew was reported missing on i believe both may 2nd the campus police at the end. dfcs were the lead investigators by june, shortly before andrew's body was found. there were, i would say 3 or 4 different law enforcement agencies that were involved. but it was really still to this point, hard to tell who was actually in charge, who was actually doing anything. mm. the investigation was turned over to the b c a in minnesota. but n dfcs was originally investigating the north dakota agee's office and b, c. i in their report said it was a minnesota b, c. i case the b c. a said that's not true. they have nothing to do with it as furious as angry at the way everything is be presented from start to finish. the way the police were handling it from pretty much day one and
6:52 am
a static death investigation is being handled by campus police. the minnesota police were not working with the campus. police cops aren't sharing information. i was absolutely out. yeah. was the light away very light way of putting it, the f, b i's response was essentially that they weren't asked by local law enforcement to be involved unless they were asked by law enforcement to get involved. there was no reason for them to get involved at that point. all due respect to the campus, police, you know, they've got a job to do and it is not investigating a potential murder. i remember asking this school official. do you feel like you're in over your head? and i don't really remember his response at that time. i don't know if he had
6:53 am
response or not, but that was one of the last times we ever got to talk to a school official about the case. no one wanted responsibility and so if you didn't want responsibility in the front end by doing anything on the back end, you were taking responsibility. and so they were, it was much easier to use the narrative of. he took his own life because then he was responsible for the police came here. oh, i can't remember how long after his body was phoned. it was a while low and basically told us the progress or lack of progress that they were at what stage the investigation we didn't know all the particulars. they didn't tell us all the evidence of what was going on, but they weren't telling us everything. we
6:54 am
were at that time just trying to find anything, any document or any video they had. tammy had told us that they had his cell phone . tammy had told us, i had his laptop, things like that. so we were asking. okay, did you find information on his laptop? could we get a copy of that or do you have video documentation of him being interviewed? i didn't know what i was expecting, but when i 1st pressed play almost felt wrong watching m a g soon lever. ah yeah, it was just like you could and knocked me over with a feather. joy with november
6:55 am
22nd. his 20th birthday. it starts off with some smart alec comment that you don't want to spend your birthday here. for a while, you expressed interest as a whole day, but you said you're facing 2 families. of course miss meter church from yesterday. it's a 25 minute video. it took me probably a week to get through. it was 5 hour where you start off, you're, you're on football player and correct. so the police came in and destroyed his life for won. this was a kid. so college cd. so i mean that got me and it inspired me to really look at the case, but look at the case, i'm not looking to hang the police or any, but i'm looking at the fact that when i saw the fat,
6:56 am
i was scandalized. i wish i'd never seen anything as bad as you know, a good way is attacks me in the morning or the night before. okay, we'll use on for tomorrow while i'm off tomorrow, and then you can find some of my analysis of it was really simple, line them up not find criminals, and give evidence, line them up lanham of what, arrest and conversion to informants. because we have 4 agents that i work with, we are we, you know, you know, like you only see, we are working with other people and we work a big area with who's in for one mission to get another informant and another arrest number. and he did it. good thing is he investigates, you know, one look. so justification. what did you, for instance, when you interrogated him, find out what his source,
6:57 am
what could it be that you didn't do it? because if you question too much, you'd find out that it was one of your other informants who gave it to him. and if that's the case, you understand, you committed a felony yield a police officer. if that's the case, just like you in your situation, you have no clue who probably around you all. your no clue with you friday. maybe try to think of ideas and stuff, but i'm not going to tell you if you haven't form giving go to subject, subject gives it to inform it to where is the investigation? you the guy in charge of informers. you've created the crime and that's it. perfect. france, oh, i
6:58 am
wish you this. yes. remember that we're in the middle of an opioid epidemic, a rhythmic opioid epidemic. and the 1st thing i see is they haven't made one b. lloyd address, not one on a bunch of them. no wonder you didn't tell me. or tell anyone who are ah with both? well look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a
