family tragedy, and a campsite killer who will die in prison.
28
00:01:56.760 --> 00:02:05.439
This is Celebrity Trials. Quick update on the Nancy Guthrie disappearance.
29
00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:09.240
Yesterday we told you about Savannah Guthrie's eighty four year
30
00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:13.319
old mother. Nancy reported missing from her Tucson, Arizona home
31
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:17.840
on Sunday. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nano said investigators believe
32
00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:21.520
she was taken against her will. Signs of forced entry
33
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:25.840
at the home nighttime, kidnapping, Her cell phone, wallet and
34
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:29.840
car all left behind. She didn't wander off. She doesn't
35
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:33.879
have mental health issues, but she has limited mobility and
36
00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:38.240
takes medication that could be fatal if she doesn't receive it. Overnight,
37
00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:42.520
this story escalated, multiple news outlets received a ransom note
38
00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:48.719
referencing Nancy Guthrie, KGUN and Tucson TMZ others. The note
39
00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:53.319
demands several million dollars in bitcoin by today Thursday, threatens
40
00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:56.439
to kill Nancy if payment isn't received by Monday. The
41
00:02:56.520 --> 00:03:00.000
note also references two specific pieces of evidence allegedly from
42
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:03.800
the crime scene, which the news outlets could not independently verify.
43
00:03:04.719 --> 00:03:08.240
The Pima County Sheriff's Department released a statement, we are
44
00:03:08.280 --> 00:03:11.840
aware of reports circulating about possible ransom note or notes
45
00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:15.560
regarding the investigation into Nancy Guthrie. We are taking all
46
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:20.199
tips and leads very seriously. Here's where it gets complicated.
47
00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:24.680
Before the ransom note surfaced, investigators told the Associated Press
48
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:27.520
they did not believe this was a kidnapping for ransom plot.
49
00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:30.919
Didn't think it was a robbery or home invasion either.
50
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:34.800
The motive was a mystery. Now a ransom note appears.
51
00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:38.000
Is it real? Is it someone trying to exploit a
52
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:42.159
high profile disappearance. The sheriff isn't saying what we know.
53
00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:45.599
Nancy Guthrie was dropped off at her home around nine
54
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:49.919
thirty pm Saturday, reported missing about eleven am Sunday when
55
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:52.759
she didn't show up for church. Someone from her church
56
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:55.280
called a family member, who went to the home and
57
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:59.719
called nine to one point one. FBI is providing investigative support,
58
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:04.439
analyzing cell phone data and cell tower information, police reviewing
59
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:08.879
surveillance video from nearby homes and license plate cameras. Savannah
60
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:12.439
Guthrie released her first public statement Monday night, called her
61
00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:16.560
mother a woman of deep conviction, a good and faithful servant.
62
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:20.680
Asked supporters to raise your prayers with us and believe
63
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:22.439
with us that she will be lifted by them in
64
00:04:22.519 --> 00:04:27.079
this very moment. Bring her home. Nancy Guthrie's home is
65
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:30.279
in the affluent Catalina Foothills area on the northern edge
66
00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:34.279
of Tucson. She lives alone, and she's been missing now
67
00:04:34.319 --> 00:04:39.000
for five days. The sheriff put it bluntly. If she's
68
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:42.120
alive right now, her meds are vital. I can't stress
69
00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:44.759
that enough. It's been better than twenty four hours, and
70
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:47.120
the family tells us if she doesn't have those meds,
71
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:52.480
it can become fatal. That was Tuesday. It's now Thursday.
72
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:57.199
The clock is ticking. We'll keep following this. Anyone with information.
73
00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:14.120
Pima County Sheriff's Department. Gregory Zecha, thirty nine years old,
74
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:19.120
son of Francy Chapman, stepson of Dwayne Dog, the bounty hunter. Chapman,
75
00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:23.199
member of Dog's bounty hunting team, former police officer. Father
76
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:28.319
yesterday arrested by the Collier County Sheriff's Office in Naples, Florida,
77
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:32.399
charged with aggravated manslaughter of a child with a firearm
78
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:36.439
and using a firearm while under the influence the child.
79
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:40.560
He's accused of killing his own thirteen year old son, Anthony.
80
00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:47.000
July nineteenth, twenty twenty five, Saturday evening, Naples, Florida, Zeca
81
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:50.439
and Anthony are at a friend's apartment UFC fight on
82
00:05:50.519 --> 00:05:54.160
television Father Son Night. Except Zecha had been drinking for
83
00:05:54.279 --> 00:05:57.079
hours before they got there. Started at a local bar,
84
00:05:57.480 --> 00:06:00.319
drank for several hours, bought more alcohol on the way
85
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:03.680
to the friend's place, then at the apartment, continued drinking
86
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:07.160
and added marijuana to the mix. By the time deputies
87
00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:10.439
would arrive later that evening, Zecha reeked of alcohol and
88
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:14.319
weed was in plain view while watching the fights. Zecha
89
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:16.800
had a gun and he couldn't keep his hands off it.
90
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:21.199
According to the arrest warrant, Zeka repeatedly handled the firearm
91
00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:24.800
in his thirteen year old son's presence, practicing drawing it
92
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:28.759
from his waistband, dry firing, playing cowboy in front of
93
00:06:28.759 --> 00:06:32.759
his kid, while hammered. Initially, the firearm had been made safe,
94
00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:37.160
magazine removed, live round cleared from the chamber, standard procedure
95
00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:39.839
if you're going to handle a weapon, except Zecha was
96
00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:43.920
drunk and high and showing off. At some point, the
97
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:47.759
magazine was reinserted, a round was chambered, the gun was
98
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:52.240
live again, and Gregory Zeka blood alcohol at approximately zero
99
00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:55.120
point one point one six, nearly one and a half
100
00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:57.519
times the legal limit to drive a car in Florida,
101
00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:03.800
discharged a single shot. That shot struck Anthony, thirteen years old, fatal.
102
00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:07.720
By the time Collier County deputies arrived around eight pm,
103
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:11.720
Anthony was dead. Officers detected the odor of alcohol on
104
00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:15.920
Zecha and observed marijuana in the vicinity. An investigation was
105
00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:20.120
opened immediately. Detectives obtained two search warrants for Zeca's medical
106
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:25.000
records and a blood draw. A toxicology expert independently tested
107
00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:30.439
both samples estimated Zeka's blood alcohol concentration was approximately zero
108
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:32.800
point one point one six at the time of the shooting,
109
00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:35.759
nearly twice the legal limit to drive, and he was
110
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:38.720
handling a loaded firearm in front of his child. In
111
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:41.439
the days after the shooting, Zecha was placed on a
112
00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:46.680
psychiatric hold heavily sedated. Family representatives told TMZ at the
113
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:50.120
time that the hold was because Zecha was stricken by
114
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:53.399
grief and not because he feels guilty of a crime
115
00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:57.560
in relation to the shooting. Family was worried he might
116
00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:00.480
try to harm himself. Dog the bounty hunter and his
117
00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:03.920
wife Francy, released a statement, we are grieving as a
118
00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:07.879
family over this incomprehensible tragic accident and would ask for
119
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:10.639
continued prayers as we grieve the loss of our beloved
120
00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:15.959
grandson Anthony. They called it an accident, an incomprehensible tragedy,
121
00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:21.040
and for six months no charges were filed. Investigation ongoing,
122
00:08:21.399 --> 00:08:27.759
witnesses interviewed, forensic testing completed, subpoenas served, search warrants executed.
123
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:33.320
Then yesterday, arrest warrant obtained. Gregory Zecha taken into custody,
124
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:37.399
aggravated manslaughter of a child with a firearm, using a
125
00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:41.440
firearm while under the influence. If convicted of the manslaughter charge,
126
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:45.480
he faces life in prison. Sheriff Kevin Rambosk didn't mince words.
127
00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:50.480
This was a heartbreaking and preventable tragedy. Our detectives conducted
128
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:54.279
an exhaustive and thorough investigation, examining every element of what
129
00:08:54.399 --> 00:09:00.799
happened through witness statements, forensic testing, subpoenas, search warrants, and more. Preventable.
130
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:04.240
That's the word that matters. Preventable. Here's what makes this worse.
131
00:09:04.759 --> 00:09:09.240
Zecha knew guns. He was a former police officer. He
132
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:12.799
worked on Dog's bounty hunting team alongside Dog and Dog's
133
00:09:12.879 --> 00:09:16.879
daughter Lisa. This wasn't some novice who didn't understand firearms.
134
00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:20.279
This was a man trained in law enforcement, trained in
135
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:24.480
weapon handling, who knew the rules. Don't drink and handle firearms,
136
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:28.559
don't use drugs and handle firearms, don't practice your quick
137
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:30.720
draw with a loaded weapon in front of a child,
138
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:35.919
and yet drunk high playing with a gun in front
139
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:39.240
of his thirteen year old son. Zeka had even taught
140
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:42.480
Anthony how to shoot back in twenty twenty one, when
141
00:09:42.519 --> 00:09:46.159
Anthony was nine, Zeka took him to Franktown Firearms Shooting
142
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:51.240
Center in Colorado. Posted it on Instagram, getting some range
143
00:09:51.279 --> 00:09:54.480
time in with our buddies. Proud father teaching his son
144
00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:58.600
responsible gun use. Four years later, that same father killed
145
00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:00.679
that same son because he couldn't put the gun down
146
00:10:00.679 --> 00:10:03.879
while he was wasted. Dog the Bounty Hunter's family has
147
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:08.679
been plagued by tragedy. Dwayne Chapman seventy three, has thirteen
148
00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:12.559
children with six different women. Lost his fifth wife, Beth Smith,
149
00:10:12.639 --> 00:10:16.679
to throat cancer in twenty nineteen, married Franci Frayne in
150
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:19.759
twenty twenty one after they bonded over both being widowed.
151
00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:23.879
Francie lost her husband, Bob Frayn, to cancer in twenty eighteen.
152
00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:28.279
They built a new family together. Now that family is shattered,
153
00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:32.240
Anthony is dead, Gregory is in jail facing life, and
154
00:10:32.279 --> 00:10:36.799
there's another family tragedy. Nobody's talking about. Dog's youngest son.
155
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:40.679
Police officer Gary Chapman was involved in a high speed
156
00:10:40.759 --> 00:10:43.559
chase last year that resulted in the death of seventeen
157
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:47.840
year old Tristan Hollis. Dog's attorney, Joseph Lesniak said the
158
00:10:47.879 --> 00:10:53.720
case remains a devastating family tragedy. Added, we believe Greg
159
00:10:53.840 --> 00:10:57.200
loved his son deeply and that this was a tragic accident,
160
00:10:57.600 --> 00:11:02.240
one that has left many lives permanently checkered, especially Anthony's
161
00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:06.639
and Greg's. Nobody doubts Gregory loved his son. That's not
162
00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:11.600
the question. The question is whether love excuses recklessness, whether
163
00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:15.919
grief excuses negligence, whether calling something an accident makes it
164
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:21.039
any less criminal. Here's the legal reality. Aggravated manslaughter of
165
00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:23.720
a child with a firearm in Florida is a first
166
00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:28.799
degree felony life sentence, no exception for accidents, no exception
167
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:32.519
for grief, no exception for being a reality star's step son.
168
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:36.399
Zecha wasn't cleaning a gun that accidentally discharged. He wasn't
169
00:11:36.440 --> 00:11:39.799
carrying concealed and had a tragic malfunction. He was drunk
170
00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:43.679
and high, repeatedly drawing a firearm from his waistband and
171
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:46.960
dry firing it in his kid's presence, practicing his quick
172
00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:49.440
draw like it was a game, and at some point
173
00:11:49.799 --> 00:11:52.840
the magazine went back in around was chambered, and he
174
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:56.879
pulled the trigger and his son died. This case underscores
175
00:11:56.919 --> 00:12:00.799
what Sheriff Rambosk called the devastating tragedy that can result
176
00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:06.080
from mixing firearms, alcohol and drugs. Every responsible gun owner
177
00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:10.200
in America knows the rules. Don't drink and shoot, don't
178
00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:13.799
handle firearms while impaired, don't treat a weapon like a toy.
179
00:12:14.399 --> 00:12:18.200
These aren't suggestions. These are the rules that keep people alive.
180
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:22.000
Gregory Zecha broke every one of them, and his thirteen
181
00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:25.840
year old son paid the price. Anthony Zecha was thirteen
182
00:12:25.919 --> 00:12:29.759
years old. His step grandfather is a reality television star.
183
00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:33.080
His father took him to the shooting range, took him
184
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:37.120
to watch UFC fights. Anthony once told a story about
185
00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:40.879
feeling the Holy Spirit while visiting his grandmother in the hospital.
186
00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:43.960
Said he felt a gush of cold wind and knew
187
00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:47.480
it was something divine. He should be fourteen now, should
188
00:12:47.480 --> 00:12:49.799
be in eighth grade, should be learning to drive in
189
00:12:49.840 --> 00:12:52.879
a couple years, should be planning for high school. Should
190
00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:56.679
be alive. Instead, his father killed him because he couldn't
191
00:12:56.679 --> 00:12:59.279
put down the gun while he was drunk. Make it
192
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:04.879
make sense, We'll be right back. With the sentencing of
193
00:13:04.960 --> 00:13:09.360
Montana's campsite killer. Darren Abbey gets one hundred years for
194
00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:12.639
the axe murder of Dustin Curson. His response to the
195
00:13:12.720 --> 00:13:26.320
judge unprintable. Welcome back to celebrity trials. I'm reed Carter.
196
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:30.919
October twenty twenty four. Moose Creek area near Big Sky, Montana,
197
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:36.279
base of the Gallatin Mountains. Remote, no established campground, limited
198
00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:38.799
cell service, the kind of place you go to get
199
00:13:38.840 --> 00:13:43.240
away from everything. Dustin Kerson, thirty five years old, went
200
00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:48.360
camping there on October tenth. Self employed contractor built homes
201
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:52.360
in the Gallatin Valley near Bozeman. Father of two young children,
202
00:13:52.759 --> 00:13:55.279
had plans to meet a friend the next day. He
203
00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:58.399
never showed up. His girlfriend went looking for him, found
204
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:01.639
him dead in his tent. Extensive injuries to his skull
205
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:04.399
and body, so brutal that the first person to call
206
00:14:04.519 --> 00:14:07.519
nine to one one reported it as a possible bear attack.
207
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:13.279
Makes sense. Southwestern Montana Grizzly Bear Territory, remote campsite. Man
208
00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:17.000
found dead with massive wounds, but investigators found no evidence
209
00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:22.039
of bears, no tracks, no scat, no fur nothing. This
210
00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:26.679
wasn't nature. This was murder. Gallatin County Sheriff Dan Springer
211
00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:29.759
confirmed it publicly. We do know that someone was out
212
00:14:29.759 --> 00:14:32.679
there who killed someone in a very heinous way. So
213
00:14:32.799 --> 00:14:34.879
if you're out in the woods. I need you to
214
00:14:34.919 --> 00:14:40.039
be paying attention. You need to remain vigilant. Autopsy revealed
215
00:14:40.120 --> 00:14:45.600
Caersom died from multiple chop wounds inflicted by an unknown weapon. Homicide,
216
00:14:45.799 --> 00:14:49.720
no arrests. Initially no suspect, A murdered man in a
217
00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:54.679
remote campsite, and the killer was still out there. Investigators
218
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:59.200
processed the crime scene, found beer cans, shot glasses, sent
219
00:14:59.240 --> 00:15:02.799
them to the monte A crime lab. DNA testing tied
220
00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:05.840
the evidence to a pair of twins, Darren Abby and
221
00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:09.960
his brother, Dustin Abbey. Dustin Abbey was incarcerated at the time,
222
00:15:10.519 --> 00:15:13.240
couldn't have been at the camp site. That left Darren
223
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:17.480
Darren Christopher Abbey, forty one years old at the time,
224
00:15:17.960 --> 00:15:21.639
already in trouble. Butte police detained him on a probation
225
00:15:21.840 --> 00:15:28.279
violation while the murder investigation proceeded. Then Abby confessed told
226
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:33.159
investigators he killed Cursum, but claimed self defense. Said Cursom
227
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:36.519
threatened him at gunpoint, said fear and adrenaline took over.
228
00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:40.480
Here's what Abby admitted doing. Hit Cersom on the head
229
00:15:40.519 --> 00:15:43.159
with a piece of firewood, stabbed him in the neck
230
00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:45.639
with a screwdriver, hit him in the face with the
231
00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:50.440
blunt side of an axe, firewood, screwdriver, axe, three different
232
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:53.480
weapons on a man allegedly pointing a gun at him.
233
00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:59.240
That's not self defense, that's overkill, that's rage. After killing Cojersom,
234
00:15:59.440 --> 00:16:03.080
Abbey didn't call police, didn't report the incident. Instead, he
235
00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:06.399
cleaned up, took numerous items that had his fingerprints on them,
236
00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:09.840
two coolers, a point four to four magnum pistol and holster,
237
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:14.399
a shotgun, shotgun ammunition, washed the axe and screwdriver in
238
00:16:14.440 --> 00:16:17.960
the creek. Then he posed for photos with the stolen firearms.
