Allie Conte: 本集讲述了我在德克萨斯州调查连环杀手案的经历,以及Tim Miller对Robert Abel的骚扰和Robert Abel最终自杀的事件。我亲身经历了Tim Miller的调查方法,包括其对Clyde Hendrick的恶作剧,以及在杀戮田野的实地考察。我观察到Tim Miller在处理案件时,其幽默感和对案件的认真态度之间存在矛盾,这让我感到困惑。同时,我也对Tim Miller的行事方式,特别是其对Robert Abel的骚扰感到担忧。
David Gomez: 我作为一名退休的FBI特工,参与了对连环杀手的侧写工作。我们根据尸检报告和犯罪现场照片,对犯罪者的性格特征进行分析,以缩小嫌疑人范围。
Tim Hootman: 我是Robert Abel的律师,Robert Abel坚称自己与杀戮田野案件无关,他认为自己仅仅因为性格古怪和居住地靠近犯罪现场而成为嫌疑人。媒体的报道和Tim Miller的骚扰严重损害了他的名誉。
Robert Abel: 我从未杀害任何人,我与杀戮田野案件无关。
Tim Miller: 我致力于寻找杀害我女儿Laura Miller的凶手,我坚信Clyde Hendrick是凶手。为了找到证据,我采取了各种手段,包括对Clyde Hendrick的恶作剧,以及对Robert Abel的调查和骚扰。虽然我最终没有杀害Robert Abel,但我承认我的行为给他带来了巨大的伤害,我为此感到后悔。
Allie Conte: This podcast is about my investigation into the Texas Killing Fields case and the events surrounding Tim Miller's harassment of Robert Abel, culminating in Abel's suicide. I experienced Tim Miller's investigative methods firsthand, including his prank on Clyde Hendrick and a visit to the Killing Fields. I observed a contradiction between Tim Miller's sense of humor and his serious approach to the case, which left me puzzled. I was also concerned about Tim Miller's actions, particularly his harassment of Robert Abel. David Gomez: As a retired FBI agent, I was involved in profiling serial killers. Based on autopsy reports and crime scene photos, we analyzed the criminal's personality traits to narrow down the suspect pool. Tim Hootman: I'm Robert Abel's lawyer. Robert Abel insisted that he was not involved in the Killing Fields case. He believed that he became a suspect simply because of his eccentric personality and his proximity to the crime scene. Media reports and Tim Miller's harassment severely damaged his reputation. Robert Abel: I never killed anyone, and I have nothing to do with the Killing Fields case. Tim Miller: I'm dedicated to finding the killer of my daughter, Laura Miller, and I firmly believe that Clyde Hendrick is the culprit. To find evidence, I used various methods, including a prank on Clyde Hendrick and an investigation and harassment of Robert Abel. Although I didn't end up killing Robert Abel, I admit that my actions caused him great harm, and I regret it.
Tim Miller plays a prank on Clyde Hedrick, involving a local journalist, to get him talking about Halloween decorations that might link him to murders. Tim believes the prank could yield clues but also raises questions about his methods.
