wouldn't have left them

with her estranged husband

of whom she was afraid.

The police were called

to the Reiser house

three times during the months

leading up to the separation.

Hans appeared twice

in family court

for refusing to pay for

his children's medical expenses.

The last time

he appeared in court,

his request to have the children

for labor day weekend

was denied.

Twelve hours later,

Nina Reiser disappeared

from the face of the earth.

When he was arrested,

he was carrying $9,000 in cash,

two books about

unsolved homicides

and a three-page letter.

The letter begins...

"I've been telling you

about Nina and nobody listens."

"I may be a danger

to the worldview of some,

but I am no danger

to my children."

Hey.

You forgot your notebook.

This is where you say thank you.

Thank you.

How much did you read?

Nah, just a little.

I had to find your name.

I want to see

if I should be embarrassed.

I wrote, "Hans Reiser trial.

Get transcript

of letter thing."

With search terms like that,

should be a breeze.

Let me see what you wrote.

Whoa!

This is thorough.

So really inadequate.

Miss Lana Edmond.

I write for the times.

Are you covering the trial?

Not sure yet.

Do you want to get a drink?

Like right now or in general?

Right now.

I have to take a rain check.

I have to do something for work.

All right.

I totally understand.

It's a really big decision.

You have to

think about it a lot.

So you'll have plenty of time

to do that on our way there.

No f***ing way!

Is this your bike?

Yeah.

I'm driving.

That's Hans' mother's house.

They're right, you know.

The body is buried here.

There's no way

he buried the body that close.

Oh, yeah.

Where would you dump a body?

Hudson canyon.

Okay. It's weird you had

an answer for that, but...

It's in New Jersey

off the coast.

It's this underwater canyon.

It's starts in the basin

and goes out in the ocean,

like 400 miles.

It's as big as the Grand Canyon,

but nobody knows about it.

So people just abandon

things there all the time.

I once dropped

an engagement ring in there.

Sorry.

I don't know

why I just said that.

Jesus Christ!

Um, so what are you

doing tonight?

Lana:
I don't know.

What do you have in mind?

Stephen:

"I never went back.

I couldn't stand

to see her that way.

Three months later,

she was dead.

My father told me in the front

seat of his convertible

after finding me in a park.

He was already living

with his new wife

and her children

somewhere in the suburbs.

He wouldn't tell me which one.

I lived on the streets until an

overdose put me in the hospital

and I became

a ward of the state.

The day my father was found
