well, it s been a long time. since he was doing work for me. and pam denied ever having a romantic relationship with ron. and you never were boyfriend girlfriend? never had an affair? no, no. in my opinion, she minimized it. she s saying, he s just the person that did some work for me, i didn t see him in months. now a guy i was involved with? no. not a guy who i refused to sign the complaint down with the cops came? correct. but despite pam s startling reaction to the question to the ron young issue, the cops had nothing on her. nothing placing them in tucson on the day of the murder. and nothing connecting either one of them to the bomb that killed gary triano. after three interviews, other than this thing with ron young, and we didn t have him to talk to, there wasn t anything that i thought that
correct. he was dead, what, instantly? yes. the gold watch around gary triano s frozen time at 5:38 pm. his family and friends didn t know what to think. who could have done this? and why? coming up . the person who set off the bomb was watching gary triano get in his car? they re watching and saying, he s on it. and the motive? what might that be? follow the money, follow the money, you look at who benefited from the death. when dateline continues. birds flyin high, you know how i feel. breeze driftin on. [coughing] .by, you know how i feel. if you re tired of staring down your copd,. it s a new dawn, it s a new day. .stop settling. .and i m feelin good. start a new day with trelegy. no once-daily copd medicine has the power
was running late. and she was trying to figure out where i was. melissa called her aunt mary, gary s first wife. my aunt mary answered the phone and then told me that they believe that my uncle had been killed. and that they knew this because they were watching it on television. and that was his car. and i thought she was kidding. i completely i got angry and said, what do you talking about? this is not funny. she said, no, it s not a joke. melissa knew that he planned to meet up with some friends after the golf game. he talked with the bartender there. he answered the phone and i
so he s blackmailing, her even though she d into anything wrong? she did not do anything wrong. she was concerned about her reputation, because reputation is everything in the business that she did. okay, let s follow that out, even though she hadn t committed any crime, even though she didn t hire ron young or anyone else to kill her husband, she couldn t go to the police when she got extorted? do you know how many people don t go to the police when they are extorted. somebody threatens to frames you for a murder i had nothing to do with, it read the police is the first phone call i m making. there are many, many people who get extorted, blackmailed, and they basically just want to make the problem go away. and so rather than go to the police, pam continued making payments to ron young. the only thing they had were those tapes, and that was it. those were the words of a person trying to get money from another person. that is it. that is not a criminal conspiracy in
i remember we were at a restaurant, and there was a waitress that really seemed like she was struggling. he did an origami flower out of a 100 dollar bill and gave it to her. he did that, not to showboat, he did it to be nice. he did it to be kind. and then came the day that changed everything. a nightmare come to life. it was late afternoon, november 1st, 1996. gary had just played a round of golf, at the top tier tucson country club called la paloma. he climbed into the lincoln town car he d borrowed from a friend. and was then instantly killed. killed by a bomb that literally blew him to pieces, right there in the parking lot. gary was just a few days shy of his 53rd birthday. some of his friends were already at his home, preparing for a surprise party. my cousin heather kept paging me, over and over again, 9-1-1, 9-1-1. and i thought it was because i
