Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:15):
You want to pass your side. I got the drivers
watch crossfire right.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
Just in case.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
I don't see anybody around.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
Hey, uh right there, what I think We've got something else,
something to look.

Speaker 4 (00:35):
Right here in Las Vegas we get our own unique
brand of homicides.

Speaker 5 (00:42):
I've never encountered somebody so cunny.

Speaker 6 (00:46):
You've got a glamour girl and a man in his seventies.

Speaker 7 (00:51):
I think that and things just got very very out
of hand.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
It was just disgusting, I mean so evil.

Speaker 4 (00:58):
It was a very hot, heavy relationship within a matter
of weeks turns into a murker.

Speaker 8 (01:41):
I one, what did your merchant?

Speaker 4 (01:44):
On March seventh, twenty nineteen, Metro gets a phone call
from a person who is out in the recreational vehicles
out in the desert in this relatively abandoned, deserted area
that they find a blue Mercedes.

Speaker 9 (01:59):
So you saw the car and what did you guys do?

Speaker 2 (02:01):
Like, well, that's a pretty nice car, A nice car. Yeah,
and we've looked at it and they seem like the
window weekend did.

Speaker 5 (02:07):
You get out?

Speaker 2 (02:08):
Okay? And I've seen it in the car.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
I got a video there was and I've seen like
a lot a big ride like you.

Speaker 9 (02:17):
Have to be like something something weird.

Speaker 4 (02:21):
There's damage to the vehicle, including one of the windows.
It was just a conspicuously placed vehicle in a weird condition.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
But this three or four miles so it could be
waged that. Yeah, I'll watch the road.

Speaker 8 (02:40):
It looks like there.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
O there is.

Speaker 5 (02:46):
And it took a little bit of time for the
patrol officers to locate the vehicle.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
Okay, we don't know if I'm talking about it. They
got to your front clear, really not a good way
to approach it. But let's try to approach from the back.
So we'll go down here and up and around right.

Speaker 5 (03:04):
Okay, the vehicle was essentially stuck on a dirt road.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
You want the pass your side. I got the drivers
watch crossfire a right, just in case, don't see anybody around.

Speaker 5 (03:21):
Check the trunk.

Speaker 8 (03:26):
Quick, nobody in.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
There, quick, nobody's in here to agree.

Speaker 10 (03:31):
People's clear.

Speaker 5 (03:33):
They were able to reach through the window and access
the trunk.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
I don't know what, but see if it's into Yeah,
that's right there by. You see that, Just go ahead
and pop it.

Speaker 5 (03:45):
It was filled with betting and towels.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
Hey, uh, I think we got something else. Something don't
look right, right, there.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
What yep, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on,
Wait a minute, Wait a minute.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
I'm down, I'm down.

Speaker 8 (04:04):
I smelled something.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Yeah, yeah, there's a body of me.

Speaker 10 (04:12):
That's what I'm thinking.

Speaker 5 (04:14):
And then that's what the officers meet, the grizzly discovery
of a human body.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
It's not Trump around here anymore. It's a crime scenier,
a copy.

Speaker 11 (04:24):
Okay.

Speaker 10 (04:24):
We were just able to access to the trunk.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
I think they might have wanted to take it further
in there to dig it, and they got stuck, and
they're just like, this is where it's going to get left.

Speaker 9 (04:36):
At the fact that the car was left abandoned in
the desert tells investigators that whoever left the car there
is likely involved or has some connection to the homicide.

Speaker 7 (04:49):
To begin with.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
Obviously they didn't walk out of here, so there was
another vehicle.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
There was a good thing we checked the trunk then, But.

Speaker 9 (04:56):
If you're also willing to leave a car in a
desert area, that shows you pretty desperate to get out
of town.

Speaker 5 (05:06):
The primary focus that night was to get the body
out of the vehicle and do what we could to identify,
and the vehicle was towed to the LAS Vegas Metropolitan
Police Department Crime Lab. The body was extracted from the
trunk and in one of the pockets with a credit

(05:27):
card or debit card that had his name, Thomas Bouchard.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
What was most unique about this was that the person
in the trunk was not the typical victim that we
run across, those associated with gambling, gambling debts, or those
associated with the casinos. Instead, it was a psychiatrist from California,
a pretty well renowned psychiatrist, doctor Thomas Bouchard.

Speaker 9 (06:04):
Thomas Burchard lived in Monterey. It's one of the most
expensive places to live in California, and by all accounts,
he was very successful.

Speaker 5 (06:17):
And very quickly we found out that he had been
reported missing by woman by the name of Judy Earp.

Speaker 10 (06:26):
One of the reasons that I knew something was seriously
wrong when Tom did not come home is I knew
he had patients scheduled the next day in the whole week.
In all of the nearly twenty years that I knew him,
he only missed work twice. I was extremely worried for his.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
Well being.

Speaker 8 (07:00):
Tom and I.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Met in the early two thousands.

Speaker 10 (07:05):
I was in the middle of a divorce and Tom
had just finalized his divorce and we got together. He
was primarily a children's psychiatrist and he had been practicing
there for over forty years. He just had a very
friendly personality that people could relate to, and he was

(07:30):
very well known and well liked in the Monterey community.

Speaker 4 (07:44):
Doctor Burchard didn't have any known enemies. He wasn't associated
with any mobs or gangs. He didn't have any of
those things you typically find. It's somebody that ends up
in the trunk of a vehicle in the desert here
in Las Vegas.

Speaker 5 (07:57):
And the vehicle contained a tremendous amount of evidence. In
addition to Thomas Boschard's body, there was betting, there were
bath towels, there were nitral gloves. Some of those nitrol
gloves had apparent blood on them, and there was a
baseball bat that was also recovered from the trunk area.

(08:20):
There was also apparent bloodstains inside the cab of the
vehicle that was indicative that there was violence or violence
had occurred to mister Burchard there.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
So, I've seen a lot of autopsies.

Speaker 8 (08:33):
And this one was particularly brutal.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
The amount of lacerations on doctor Burchard was something you
don't typically see in a murder.

Speaker 5 (08:43):
Mister Burchard primarily had injuries which were blunt force trauma
and sharp force trauma.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
To his head and neck area.

Speaker 4 (08:53):
So obviously the next steps are finding out how to
be end up killed dead in the back of the
trunk and two, whose vehicle.

Speaker 12 (09:01):
Is this.

Speaker 5 (09:05):
My partner? And I asked our fellow detectives to reach
out to miss her, and I see.

Speaker 2 (09:12):
That it's a Las Vegas number that was calling me.

Speaker 5 (09:16):
The detectives purported themselves intentionally to be missing persons detectives
as opposed to homicide detectives, because miss irp at this
particular time as a potential suspect in mister Bouchard's death.
She told us he left to come to Las Vegas

(09:36):
on March first, with the expectation that mister Burchard was
supposed to return to California on March fourth and did not.
She also indicated in her missing person report that he
was in the company of a woman by the name
of Kelsey Turner.

Speaker 4 (09:54):
Kelsey Turner was somebody that had a huge social media presence,
a number of followers on his Oh.

Speaker 12 (10:00):
My god, why did you document this night, this terrible, terrible.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
She was somebody that modeled as well and was making
money off of her looks.

Speaker 5 (10:12):
Right, do you have a woman who has a Bad
Barbie persona who is an influencer and a model, then
you have a well known, well regarded child psychiatrist. Missterrup
was quite candid about the relationship, obviously a relationship that
she did not like.

Speaker 8 (10:36):
When police put in the name Kelsey Turner, they find
an Instagram handle called bad Barbie and if you look
at it, you see this wall of photos of a
beautiful woman in sexy poses and they're self generated, so
it looks like most of them she either took herself
or she instructed somebody to take. She's trying to appeal
to male followers on Instagram, who are most likely to
engage with this kind of content. The problem with social

(10:58):
media always is that it doesn't I mean, you can
directly translate that into earnings, and so there's still a
question here of how is she making her money.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
Kelsey, like a lot of people, was putting on a
lifestyle on social media that didn't exactly match for real life.
She was a single mother, she had a child that
she was living with, she had another child that she
wasn't living with, but she was very important to her
that she projected an image of this partying lifestyle, luxurious

(11:27):
lifestyle out here in Las Vegas.

Speaker 12 (11:38):
We met a really nice super lady with some starburst
in her card.

Speaker 6 (11:41):
She was a sweetheart.

Speaker 10 (11:44):
All of her money was frozen in the bank for
something she didn't do. That seems to be her catchphrase.
She contacted him saying that she needed someone to co
sign a lease for her husband was abusing her and
she had two small children. She wanted to leave him,

(12:07):
but she would be homeless if she left her abusive husband.
She said that she was a successful model and she
could pay rent, but she just didn't have a credit
history to qualify. I said, Tom, this is like a
thirty five hundred dollars house. And said, well, she's going

(12:33):
to pay the rent and everything, and I'm just co
signing the lease.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
I was suspicious. Now, yeah, oh, this.

Speaker 8 (12:45):
Feels a bit like a romance scam. You've got this
younger woman who is engaging online with as much older man.
They're sending messages back and forth, and she quick quickly
asked for money, which is not something you normally do.
With someone you're interested in romantically online. And then it's
also the SOB story background, which is really common to
romance scams. Anybody can fall for romance scams. It's not

(13:07):
people who are low aqu we know. I mean in
his case, Thomas Bouchard is an intelligent man. It's that
people craft a narrative that they know the other person
wants to hear, and then they take advantage of it.

Speaker 5 (13:21):
The relationship is peculiar, to say the least, and you
struggle to find a reasonable explanation as to why these
two are involved with each other so quickly.

Speaker 10 (13:36):
Tom always felt the financial difficulties was one of the
main problems for most people, so he would generously give
money to whomever he thought needed it.

Speaker 4 (13:50):
Doctor Bouchard clearly felt like he was doing something to
help Kelsey and who knows what he was getting.

Speaker 6 (13:56):
In her tracks, Bouchard is described as a man who
is incredibly generous, somebody who likes charitable giving. But I
think that we have to be real here. There are
many ways to give to charity, and in actual fact,

(14:18):
Dr Bouchard reaches out to young attractive women and he
pays them. So I think that it's a case of well,
who's exploiting who. As this story starts to.

Speaker 9 (14:31):
Progress in the investigation, the detectives figure out Kelsey Turner
is connected to the car. She required the car, the Mercedes,
when she was living in California. The payments were made
by Thomas Burchard on Kelsey's behalf. The fact that his

(14:55):
body is in the trunk of her car put her
front and center in terms of an investigation.

Speaker 8 (15:13):
Kelsey Turner was born in nineteen ninety three. She grew
up in this small community in Jonesboro, Arkansas. From a
young age, she took part in beauty pageants. And I
think what this means in terms of her own development,
her own psychology is there's off of this critique that
beauty pageants can sexualize young girls, and the knock on

(15:36):
effects of that I think are poorly understood. She her
whole life has particularly been praised from putting herself in
revealing outfits on stage for the attention of others and
to win money or prizes. And so I think that
that will fundamentally shift and shape how you think you
should be in the world, who you think is respected,
and also what you think are the possibilities in terms

(15:58):
of making money from your looks.

Speaker 6 (16:02):
Kelsey is in a small town and she has got
bigger ideas and bigger aspirations, and her looks are what
she feels is her ticket out of there. Unfortunately, Kelsey
is one of many many pretty girls who want to

(16:22):
have careers as glamor models or become actresses. So's she's
ten a penny, unfortunately, particularly when she gets to California.

Speaker 5 (16:42):
While we were collecting background information on mister Burchard, we
were also communicating with some of his associates and friends.

Speaker 4 (16:52):
Doctor Burchard was sending thousands of dollars to Kelsey. He
paid for her whole life, really, because there's no other
in being generated by Kelsey at this time.

Speaker 9 (17:04):
At various stages in the investigation, people that knew mister
Bouchard indicated that there was a sexual component to the relationship.

Speaker 4 (17:22):
Certainly doctor Bouchard was portraying it as a sexual relationship
in the text messages.

Speaker 8 (17:28):
Kelsey moved to California and realized that this dream of
being a model probably wasn't going to work out, and
so now she's scrambling to find alternative sources of funding
and one way in which pretty girls on the Internet.
Can make money is to sell explicit content, and so
she moved into this realm of more hazy relationships with
older men, specifically with Thomas Bouchard.

Speaker 9 (17:50):
I think colloquially you'd say he was her sugar daddy.

Speaker 10 (17:54):
I knew what Kelsey Turner was doing. I believe that
Tom thought that it was maybe flattering that this supposed
playboy model was, you know, paying attention to him.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
The bumpy ride.

Speaker 8 (18:13):
At first, I didn't know if we were going to
get through it, but we made it.

Speaker 6 (18:20):
Between twenty seventeen and twenty nineteen, Tom sends at least
three hundred thousand dollars to Kelsey, So wow, that's an
awful lot of money. You know, if she was being
paid by the hour, that is a good hourly rate.

Speaker 8 (18:47):
The text messages between Kelsey and Thomas Bouchard revealed that
there is this push and pull between them where he
expresses that he's no longer happy with the financial arrangement.

Speaker 10 (18:59):
Turned was extremely manipulative, and it got worse and worse
and worse. She said she needed a car because her
husband took the car and the divorce and it was
a BMW. And I told Tom this time, I said,
do not even put her name on it, you know,
keep it in your name, which thankfully he did.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
And when she didn't.

Speaker 10 (19:22):
Make the payments on it, he told her that she
needed to return it. Well, she wouldn't and she ditched it.
And then she managed to take over the lease of
a Mercedes and she sent me a picture of this
Mercedes and with an obscene gesture of her middle finger

(19:45):
saying that the Mercedes was better than the BMW.

Speaker 6 (19:52):
Tomba shop definitely got more than he boggained full when
he contacted Kelsey Turner. She's even mess his girlfriend, So
be careful what you wish for. I guess what could
have just been a short term transactional relationship has turned
into something that is intense and incredibly toxic.

Speaker 10 (20:17):
I was beginning to suspect that she was a little dangerous.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
One time when he had gone.

Speaker 10 (20:26):
Over there, she was taking canned goods out of the
kitchen cabinet and throwing them at him. She definitely show
violent tendencies and in the end he told her he
was not going to co sign a renewal. She needed
to either move or make gather arrangements with the landlord.

(20:47):
And then she texted him back, seeing that I was
on her list and that if I caused her to
be evicted, she was going to kill me.

Speaker 8 (21:05):
In the next batch of messages, what we see is
a real shift in the tone of the messages, and
she's now made an explicit threat, and she might have
this volatility in her that is also physically threatening, and

(21:25):
that within the relationship of Judy and Thomas introduces this
additional fear of what is she capable of. And what's
in some way surprising is that despite saying to her, oh,
I'm not so sure about this anymore, he's unable to
completely withdraw from this relationship arrangement that they have, and

(21:46):
he continues to give her money.

Speaker 7 (21:48):
I think this is the.

Speaker 4 (21:49):
Most politically incorrect I've ever been in an uber.

Speaker 5 (21:59):
Kelsey had moved to Las Vegas around November of twenty eighteen,
so not long before this incident occurred, and was able
to get a residence because again mister Burchard was paying
for the property.

Speaker 10 (22:12):
Several times Tom would receive texts from the landlord of
the house with complaints from the neighbors the loud parties.
So I think the police were over there a lot
and at that time was when it was really ramping up.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
She went from borrowing and never paying back to stealing.

Speaker 10 (22:37):
She would be out somewhere and say, oh, my credit
card got declined for the Uber can you loan me
a credit card number? Well, she would keep that and
then a few weeks later it would have massive chargers,
and then it went from stealing to bank fraud. She

(22:58):
manufactured checks, the bank caught it. They were so poorly
done that even his name Brochard, was not capitalized, but
it had her address in Las Vegas on the checks.

Speaker 9 (23:20):
The detectives worked towards figuring out where the house was.
Once they did that, and then from the connection to
the car, there was enough evidence to issue at warrant.

Speaker 5 (23:32):
We were able to prepare a search warrant and we
arrived at the residence on Puritan Avenue.

Speaker 7 (23:43):
Kelsey's not at our house. The house is abandoned.

Speaker 5 (23:47):
Immediately upon making entry through the garage door, we were
able to identify another crime scene. There was evidence of
a cleanup. There appeared to have been biological material on
the ground and somebody or pee Bull had made an
effort to clean it up.

Speaker 8 (24:04):
There was a very.

Speaker 5 (24:06):
Strong chemical smell coming from the garage. One of the
two trash bins was filled with what appeared to be ammonia.
One of the towels that was folded on the couch
was the same pattern as a towel that had been
recovered from the trunk of the Mercedes Benz. In one

(24:27):
of the bedrooms, there was a door completely missing from
the frame, and we had found that door literally broken
into two pieces, with one half on the first floor
and another half in the garage. Also in that bedroom
we found mister Burchard's blood and evidence of a struggle.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
That was the worst time in my entire life. You know.

Speaker 10 (24:58):
I receive a call from a detective in Las Vegas
and they told me that he's deceased, and I just,
you know, I just I couldn't accept it. No, no, no, no,
no no no. I knew immediately who was responsible. I mean,

(25:20):
there was no doubt in my mind, and there still
is no doubt in my mind, one hundred percent Kelsey
Turner is responsible for Tom's murder.

Speaker 5 (25:30):
As far as the location of miss Turner and anyone
else that was associated with the murder, it was unclear
where they were at that particular time, So ultimately we
issued an arrest warrant for miss Turner.

Speaker 4 (25:46):
Shortly before March first, Kelsey had reached out to doctor
Brichard and as doctor Bachard to.

Speaker 10 (25:50):
Pay the rent, but she had contacted him and told
him that her son was sick, she couldn't afford medicine,
she was going to get evicted, and he bought a
plane ticket.

Speaker 4 (26:06):
Immediately, Doctor Bichard decides he's going to come and play
surprises and out to Kelsey at the house that he's
paying for.

Speaker 10 (26:18):
He calls me from the airport and he said that
she was such a pervasive wiar that he needed to
see it for himself.

Speaker 6 (26:27):
This is about him going and trying to figure out
in his own mind how he feels about Kelsey and
maybe trying to orchestrate a way of saying goodbye to
her because he's he's emotionally involved with her.

Speaker 8 (26:47):
When Thomas Bischard gets on the plane to go and
fly to Vegas to see Kelsey, he doesn't know that
there's another man in Kelsey's life.

Speaker 9 (26:57):
John Logan Kennison was Kelsey Turner's new boyfriend. They had
only been together a couple of weeks. Kelsey Turner did
not want Burchard to know that Logan was her boyfriend,
so they were trying to keep that hidden from him.

Speaker 6 (27:14):
Bob Bobby may well have met bat Ken because Logan
is well, he's got everything that you would imagine on
the CV. He's been involved in criminal activity, he's involved
with drugs, he's involved with gang violence, and yet this

(27:35):
is somebody that Kelsey appears to be really really keen on.

Speaker 4 (27:44):
Within a very short time of and Logan meeting each other,
they get magic tattoos, they were at the clubs a lot,
a lot of drinking, a lot of partying, and then
he's moving into her house.

Speaker 9 (27:58):
The combination of Kelsey and Logan was really volatile, and
either one of them on their own is probably volatile,
but if you put them together, it was definitely far
far worse. They're just a bad match, and things just
got very, very out of hand.

Speaker 4 (28:17):
It was a very hot and heavy relationship within a
matter of weeks turns into a murder.

Speaker 9 (28:31):
When Thomas Burchard arrived at the house, he was expecting
Kelsey and maybe one other person besides the four year
old son. Instead, he also found another couple and Kelsey's friend, Diana.
Diana cleans the house and then acts as a sort
of nanny for Kelsey's four year old son.

Speaker 4 (28:55):
I think doctor Burchard just thought he was paying for
Kelsey's lifestyle. I don't think he realized is paying for
multiple people's lifestyles.

Speaker 5 (29:02):
Mister Burchard had been assisting Ms Turner financially over a
couple of years, to the tune of about three hundred
thousand dollars, and there was a lot of.

Speaker 9 (29:15):
Partying going on in the house, drinking, some drug use.
I think it would have been obvious to Thomas Burchard
that this four year old shouldn't be in the situation
that he was in.

Speaker 4 (29:27):
When he arrives, Kelsey has taken off guard, but she
quickly adapts. He meets all the roommates, including Logan, who
is described as just a friend. Kelsey makes sure everybody
knows not to call Logan her boyfriend. She's very concerned
that her money train will end if doctor Bichard finds out.

Speaker 10 (29:58):
The last message the I received from Tom was Saturday.

Speaker 2 (30:03):
It was March second.

Speaker 10 (30:04):
I believe at three point thirty three pm says all
is well here and I look forward to coming home.
In retrospect, I believe he had made the decision to
report that Kelsey Turner's son was not in the best
a living situation.

Speaker 7 (30:22):
The environment was just not a place anyone would want
a four year old.

Speaker 10 (30:30):
The text that I received the next day, supposedly from him,
I immediately suspected wasn't from him. I had texts, why
don't you answer your phone? And the response was I'm
out to lunch. I will send it to you in
a bit, because I just knew it wasn't his way

(30:52):
of talking. It's in at three thirty four, and I said,
call me now, or I'm reporting you missing.

Speaker 5 (31:00):
After our thorough search of the residence, all we knew
was there was a vehicle that was several miles away
from the residence that contained mister Bouchard's body, and we
were beginning to conclude that maybe he was killed in
the residence, then loaded into the vehicle and then taken
out to the desert to be destroyed along with all

(31:21):
of the other evidence.

Speaker 4 (31:23):
Living in the house was Kelsey, Logan and then Opania.

Speaker 5 (31:27):
And we were able to then follow up on those names,
trying to determine if they have any involvement in this
particular murder. We began to try to find these individuals
through electronic surveillance utilizing the individual's cell phones. The day

(31:53):
the media reported a body had been recovered from a vehicle,
Kelsey's phone was shut down, along with the phone that
mister Kennison was using. The fact that both of their
phones were deactivated on March seventh was more than just coincidence.

(32:17):
The first person that we were able to arrest was
Miss Turner on March twenty first. She was arrested in Stockton, California,
and when she was taken into custody, she was quite
resigned to the situation she had been caught, and undoubtedly
she was tired from going from place to place and

(32:38):
trying to keep a low profile. After Miss Turner was
arrested in late March, Miss Paynia reached out to us
and arranged for her surrender. Miss Paania was able to
provide candid details about what transpired from the moment that

(33:00):
mister Burchard arrived in Las Vegas on March first up
to the murder.

Speaker 4 (33:08):
By March third, there's already been tension in the house.
Later that evening, doctor Bouchard, along with Kelsey, go to
pick up Diana from her job at the Caesu's palace.
On the way back, they get lost, and so they
refer to their phones to get the GPS up, and
Kelsey gets doctor Bouchard's phone. She starts looking throughout the

(33:29):
rest of his phone, and in particular are the text messages,
and what Kelsey discovers is a text conversation between Kelsey's
mother and doctor Bochard not about Kelsey and the way
she's living, and some of their concerns about Kelsey's young son.
Kelsey sees these text messages and then starts freaking out.

(33:49):
She starts punching and even kicking doctor Burchard while he's driving.

Speaker 8 (33:57):
Attacking somebody while they're driving and you're also in the
car just means that you've really lost control over your anger.
She's acting out both the stress of the financial dependency,
but also the stress of what if I lose my
kids and he is going to be responsible, and now
I need to do anything that I can to stop
that from happening.

Speaker 4 (34:21):
I'm sure when doctor Richard arrives home after that car confrontation,
he's wondering what he's doing with this relationship at all.
He's funding a house, he's funding a lifestyle and he's
starting to realize that he's not really getting much out
of it. Kelsey, I think, at this time, has to
realize that the money train's going to stop. This situation

(34:45):
only brings out the worst in every part of Kelsey's personality.

Speaker 9 (34:50):
At the house, Kelsey Turner announces to people that she
has found child pornographic images on Burchard's phone. And of
course something that is so offensive tends to rile people
up and makes everybody instantly more angry. So I think

(35:12):
introducing that label on Burchard to the group put him
more in danger than he otherwise was.

Speaker 5 (35:22):
The release of that information could be damaging to his
reputation as a very well known child psychiatrist. A forensic
examination of mister Bouchard's iPhone was conducted and there was
no evidence of child pornography.

Speaker 8 (35:46):
Why would Kelsey lie about the fact that he had
child pornography on his phone?

Speaker 2 (35:50):
And I think the.

Speaker 8 (35:51):
Answer is really simple, and it is literally the worst
thing anyone can think of anyone else doing. And she
throws it into the room like this catalyst, say go
get him.

Speaker 4 (36:04):
Logan's at the house at this point. Diane is at
the house. Doctor Bechard retreats to the bedroom that he
was staying in at the house, hoping things will calm down,
hoping things will settle down.

Speaker 2 (36:14):
They don't. They only get worse.

Speaker 4 (36:17):
Kelsey keeps on yelling at him, asking him for his phone.
So Doctor Chard gives over his phone. She sees him
talking to other women, and so she's getting angrier and
angrier and angrier, and of course this triggers Logan.

Speaker 9 (36:33):
For John Logan Kennison, I think there are two things
that play for him. First, he's hearing that Burchard may
have child pornography on his phone, and then I think,
on top of that, because he has strong feelings for Kelsey,
he is more enraged at this situation.

Speaker 4 (36:56):
Logan takes it upon himself to break through the door,
and then Logan goes right into the room and attacks
the seventy year old man with the baseball bag. Kelsey
is encouraging Logan to continue beating up on doctor Burchard,
and Logan was willing to do anything to make Kelsey happy,

(37:16):
including violence, and in fact it's Diana who helps break
up the fight. Doctor Burchard tells Diana that he's really hurt,
that he thinks he needs to go to a hospital immediately.
So what he does he goes downstairs, goes into the car,
and asks for a ride to the hospital. He even

(37:38):
tells Logan and Kelsey that I'll tell the police I
was mugged. I'm not gonna get you guys in trouble.
Diana then goes into the car with doctor Burchard and
talks to him for a little while, and doctor Burchard
slowly starts to realize that there's no intention to take
him to the hospital, and in fact, doctor Burchard tells
Diana they're gonna kill me.

Speaker 5 (38:04):
According to Miss Panya. She is then directed by Miss
Turner to go and clean up for the result of
the physical altercation. In the bedroom. There were bloodstains on
the walls, but then there was a fairly large blood
stain that was just outside of the door to that bedroom.

Speaker 4 (38:24):
Logan and Kelsey at this point are spiraling. They've put
themselves in a situation they don't know how to get
out of. First, their financial lifestyle is gone, there's probably
no question about that. But second, they've brutally injured somebody
and they don't know what's going to happen to them,
So they're trying to figure out a way out. The
next thing that they hear from the car is doctor

(38:45):
Bouchard screaming saying I need help. Kelsey gets even angrier
and she instructs Logan to knock him out, and Logan complies.

Speaker 5 (38:57):
This attack was Brutalis in his pistol, whipping mister Burchard
as he sat in the back of that Mercedes Bend,
beating the life out of him.

Speaker 4 (39:10):
The next thing that Diana and Kelsey no is they
see Logan coming out with blood on him, saying doctor
Burchard is dead.

Speaker 10 (39:25):
I had an old phone that we kept just as
a backup that the cloud would back up all of
his photographs to that and the last photograph that was
on his phone was early that Sunday morning of someone
kicking him. I don't know if he had tried to

(39:50):
call nine to one one or he was describbing his
phone or something, but I'm pretty sure that's a photograph
of when they were killing him.

Speaker 6 (40:00):
HM.

Speaker 4 (40:09):
After doctor Burchard is dead, Kelsey, Logan, and even Diana
have a big problem what.

Speaker 2 (40:16):
To do next.

Speaker 4 (40:18):
They move doctor Burchard's body from the back of the
car into the trunk. They haphazardly wrap him in some blankets,
and then Logan takes off in the vehicle, not even
knowing where to go or.

Speaker 8 (40:29):
What to do with the vehicle.

Speaker 4 (40:30):
Next, Logan contacts a friend who has to follow him
in another car and dumps the body out in the
desert something how can we help him?

Speaker 10 (40:54):
Can you switch him cuffs? And I'll find out.

Speaker 2 (40:58):
With them.

Speaker 5 (40:59):
That day that mister Kennison was arrested, mister Kennison declined
an interview with us, and because it was so sloppy
in the way that they attempted to clean up and
dispose of the body, dispose of the evidence, that the
best course of action was probably not to say anything
to further avoid being implicated in this matter. Logan or

(41:22):
John Logan O Logan's officers, I'll.

Speaker 4 (41:25):
Be right back.

Speaker 9 (41:25):
I love you.

Speaker 5 (41:27):
Got my partner and I concluded that we had the
right person and that was involved in this murder.

Speaker 6 (41:35):
All men, we're not going to.

Speaker 2 (41:36):
Jail right now.

Speaker 1 (41:37):
You're going to our headquarters. Some detectivesy to talk to you.

Speaker 9 (41:47):
When Kelsey Turner appeared in court, she seemed to be
very aware that there were always cameras present. I think
she knew they were there for her, and I think
to some extent she.

Speaker 7 (41:59):
Liked the attention.

Speaker 6 (42:01):
When you look at the footage of Kelsey in court,
she's aware of the attention that she's receiving and this
is her big moment. I think this is the fame
that she's always felt that she was destined for her
maybe entitled too. You can take the girl out of

(42:21):
the pageant, but you can't take the pageant out of
the girl.

Speaker 12 (42:30):
I'm sorry for everything that overcame our cause and everything
that they've had to go through these hard timy I
hope back to day they'll get the clothing they deserve
or between the Paul parts and everybody has better understanding
to want everybody to someone move on and gives use.

Speaker 9 (42:49):
Logan pled guilty to second degree murderer and his sentence
will be forty five years, with parole eligibility after eighteen
years has been served.

Speaker 4 (43:02):
Logan was a tool of Kelsey's, and Kelsey, i'm sure,
will maintain that she had nothing to do with this,
had no idea what Logan was gonna do, but that
to me is all part of her manipulation.

Speaker 7 (43:12):
So you were influenced by Kelsey.

Speaker 12 (43:14):
Mm hmmm.

Speaker 11 (43:15):
No, I went overboard. I lost control of my blacked out.
I was really I was really missed up on drugs.

Speaker 2 (43:23):
Are you gonna feel like you took the fall for her? No,
I won't.

Speaker 11 (43:26):
I hope she goes home so you can go with
the kids. You know, you got toiler kids too. So
she deserves to be her real name. They deserve to
have her in their lives.

Speaker 6 (43:38):
I don't really believe him. I think that he wants
Kelsey's approval. This is testimony, I think to just how
under the skin of these men Kelsey can get.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
A little bit of.

Speaker 5 (44:04):
Breaking news On the fatic of the trial for former
Playboy model Kelsey Turner, now off the book She has
Fled Guilty.

Speaker 4 (44:13):
What Kelsey engages in is what's called an Alfred plea,
And in an Alfred plea, what happens is the defendant
acknowledges that the state could prove their case beyond a
reasonable doubt, but they still maintain their innocence.

Speaker 9 (44:27):
Kelsey Turner was culpable as what we call legally as
an aidor and a better meaning that she encouraged someone
else to commit the crime. From the evidence, her DNA
is on a bat that suggests that she's involved in
striking Thomas Burchard as well.

Speaker 7 (44:45):
Her sentence is twenty five.

Speaker 9 (44:47):
Years, with parole eligibility after ten years has been served.

Speaker 7 (44:53):
Diana.

Speaker 9 (44:54):
She got a sentence where she got probation as an accessory.

Speaker 2 (45:00):
To murder Diana.

Speaker 4 (45:02):
She's not involved in the murder at all, but she's
genuinely concerned about her safety given the legs that she
saw John and Kelsey go through during the murder of
doctor Bishark.

Speaker 9 (45:13):
But I think the sentences were fair, and I don't
think Kelsey Turner is likely to change too much in
her fundamental nature on how she interacts with people, so
I think there will always be an aspect of her
probably manipulating who she comes in contact with.

Speaker 4 (45:36):
And Kelsey is a cautionary tale of somebody who thirst
for fame and money over anything else. For her, she
was so protective of the illusion of success, the illusion
of wealth, the illusion of having made it, that she
was willing to do anything to protect that illusion, to
include murdering doctor Thomas Bechark.

Speaker 8 (45:57):
To me, Kelsey Turner is a hustler who will do
what or she needs to get the things she thinks
she deserves in life. She seems like someone who really
likes to be in control, and she really likes to
be in control of other people's realities in particular, and
she's unusually able to tell people what she knows they
want to hear, and to get money or favors in exchange,

(46:19):
And that is what's special or different about Kelsey Turner
