just a little more than two hours from soggy seattle sits yakima in a valley where orchards and vineyards flourish in the abundant sunshine of southcentral washington. and it was just outside yakima on a saturday in may 2013, that terra rockenfield was meeting her father-in-law. >> i'd sent him some messages early in the morning, asking if i could borrow his truck, cause i wanted to go to a nursery and he's like, well i'm gonna be out there anyway showing a house so i can just meet you there. >> reporter: terra's father-in-law, vern holbrook, was one of the best-known and best-selling realtors in this part of washington state. the meet time at the nursery was set, 11:15 a.m. >> i sent him a message when i got there and he said 'clients running late. just got here. see you in a bit' and about 30 minutes later i sent him a message and said that i was done. and i didn't hear anything. >> how much times goes by? >> two hours. >> did you think of going to look for him? >> yeah i did. then i thought well no i don't wanna interrupt him if he's with a client. do i regret that every second? yeah,
