It's the oldest motive

in the world.

Now, things did get

out of hand

and she lost control,

but greed was

the original motivator.

And it was a direct result

of her husband's diagnosis.

James recently updated his will

to include his children.

[V/O] For Detective Walker

and the rest of the officers

on the Pollack case,

the changing of James's will

seemed like an airtight motive.

But some didn't believe

Casey's motivation

was quite so simple.

Up next...

We sit down with one of the

only people who's heard

Casey Pollack speak since

the traumatizing events.

Right here on Inside Crime.

[light piano music]

I'm not ashamed to admit

I have values.

But you don't have to preach

the gospel to realize

that something's wrong

in this country.

When the dream

of a better life

is out of reach for some

while others continue

to use the system

for their own selfish ends.

As Governor,

I'll end the war on values.

And I'll fight against

attacks on our quest

for a better world.

Belief makes us strong.

It is belief that will deliver

us to a better tomorrow.

I'm Leslie Bison

and I approve this message.

[wind howling]

[laughs]

Yeah right.

Try it.

- Okay, what do I do?

- Just inhale.

[coughs]

- [laughs]

- You all right?

[coughs]

I'm fine.

It takes some

getting used to.

God, my grandma's

gonna kill me.

She might kill you.

She could kill you.

I just don't want

her to worry.

She's old.

Oh, come on.

What are you talking about?

You're like the best

good girl I know.

She has nothing

to worry about.

Yeah, well,

sometimes it seems like

I'm more capable of taking

care of her than she is.

Like, the other day,

I came downstairs

and she was just

watching the TV.

Not blinking.

Her mouth was wide open.

I had to call her name

three times

before she realized

I was even there.

She started acting

normal again.

Not that weird.

My grandma used to do

the same thing.

Yeah, but...

The TV was off.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

You know,

what can you do?

[muffled rock music]

Sh*t.

Are you just

gonna leave it?

Yeah. It was from

the disgusting,

dirty smokers who were

here before us.

Ah, I like the way

you think.

Let's go.

[wind howling]

[distant wolves howling]

Dump in the pasta.

What's taking him so long?

He'll be fine.

Give it a stir.

What are you looking for?

Ghosts?

What?

What do you mean?

Nothing.

Really.

It's just that...

I've just heard things

about these woods.

And the spirits

that live here.

- Stop it.

- What?

- You're scaring us.

- Oh, I'm not scared.

I'm just saying

it's not unheard of to...

see things out there

in the dark night.

Mom!

Sorry.

You're too easy.

[cellphone ringing]
