(04:17):
town with a population of only fivethousand, three hundred and eighty eight.
It is located in northeast Arkansas inLawrence County. You can get to Memphis
in about an hour and a halfdrive or to Little Rock in two hours.
Walnut Ridge is a little over sixteensquare feet and was established in eighteen

(04:40):
seventy five. This was when itwas known as the Old walnut Ridge Settlement
and used mainly for you guessed atthe railroad. Walnut Ridge takes a lot
of pride in its agriculture. Cityof walnut Ridge dot com describes the town
as a charming farming community with affordablehousing, friendly people in a great public

(05:03):
education system. William Baptist University islocated in walnut Ridge, and Arkansas State
University Jonesboro is nearby, along withthe Black River Technical College in Pocahonnas.
The median household income in walnut Ridgeis around forty one thousand dollars with a

(05:24):
median home price of ninety two thousand. The median rent averages around six hundred
with the cost of living index ofseventy eight point four, which is much
lower than the US average of ahundred. Nineteen percent of the residents in
walnut Ridge are living under the federalpoverty level. Walnut Ridge is located in

(05:47):
the Mississippi Delta Flyway, which isknown as the major waterfowl flyway in the
US. If you're like me andthis means absolutely nothing to you, don't
worry. I googled it thanks toducks dot org, because I have never

(06:08):
hunted in my life and had noclue what any of this meant. So.
The waterfowl flyway is a system thathas been used for almost seventy years.
It helps control the management of waterfowlharvesting while conserving the bird's habitat.
There are four flyways recognized by theUS Fishing Game, Atlantic, Mississippi,

(06:30):
Central, and Pacific. The systemprovides a way to effectively manage the harvesting
regulations, which they base on waterfowlpopulations, harvests, and the number of
hunters in each of these four regions. Each of the flyways are unique in
its geography, hunter numbers, harvests, hunting culture, and waterfowl habitat.

(06:57):
The birds are banded with a coloredband. Pacific is orange, Central's blue,
Mississippi is gray, and Atlantic isgreen. When hunters harvest one of
these birds, they are to reportit. This is how they are able
to effectively manage harvest regulations. TheMississippi Flyway includes fourteen states. Nearly half

(07:20):
of the nearly half of the nation'swaterfell hunters live in one of these fourteen
states. The Mississippi Flyway is fortyto fifty percent of the US duck harvest
and thirty to forty percent of theUS goose harvests. If you would like
more information, I'd like to pointyou to ducks dot org. Walnut Ridge

(07:43):
has some pretty interesting history behind it, especially when it comes to rock and
roll. The Rock and Roll Highwaysixty seven runs right through the town.
It was named this in two thousandand nine for the musicians who would play
alongside the high way in the nineteenfifties. The musicians just happened to be

(08:03):
the very well known Arkansan Johnny Cash, along with Elvis Presley, Billy Lee
Riley, Jerry Lee Lewis a mansaying and write or stream. This is

(08:28):
not the only rock and roll historywalnut Rich has. In fact, the
next story was so fun to readabout, and I'm pretty excited to share
the story with those who aren't familiarwith the town. Would you believe me
if I told you that rock androll legends the Beatles are connected to walnut

(08:50):
Rich I can imagine y'all are like, what in the world did the Beatles
have to do with this tiny townin Arkansas? While they were on tour
in nineteen sixty four, the guyswanted to take a small break and find
a quiet, secluded location to getin some rest and relaxation. It turns
out that the guy who operated thecharter airline that they flew on owned a

(09:13):
dude ranch near Alton, Missouri,so he offered them the dude ranch for
the weekend. They decided to takehim up on this offer, but they
had to change planes before getting tothe location, and they wanted a small,
quiet airport with no crowds. Theairport also had to have a large
runway to change flights at. Thecharter plane operator suggested that they use a

(09:35):
small airport located in walnut Ridge,Arkansas. They planned a flight into walnut
Ridge after their Dallas show, changeplanes, then fly to the ranch.
On September eighteenth, nineteen sixty four. As they began to land in walnut
Ridge, the airplane caught the attentionof some board teenagers who headed to the

(09:56):
airport to check it out. Theyhad no idea what they were about to
find out. About an hour later, they come flying back in here and
I was about any closed, andthey said, you're not gonna leave,
Jack, You're not gonna play this. I said what they were the Beatles?
And I said, no, boys, they'll come back in here and
start rooms like it. I said, they ain't nobody gonna do that.

(10:18):
Word. It was the Beatles.They had been in Dallash but on the
way to New York, and butthree days of R and R and I
said, the boys, I don'tplay that. They said, it's true,
Jacket. But they said when theBeatles got off, they was practicing
a quick raw and you know,having a good game. They talked.

(10:43):
Well, you can only imagine howfast the words started to spread in this
little tiny town. So on Sunday, when the band returned, they were
greeted by hundreds of eager fans,not the peaceful changing of planes that they
planned. They were very, verynice, and a few fans got to
shake their hands and some received autographsas they walk through the crowds. A

(11:07):
major bullet point in the history ofWalnut Ridge is They have the distinction of
being the only place in Arkansas visitedby the Beatles. If you're looking for
an interesting trip to take and happento visit the town, make sure to

(11:28):
head to Beatles Park, located atone ten Abbey Road. This was formerly
one ten Southwest Second Street. Atthe park, you can see a life
size sculpture of the Beatles as theyappear on the Abbey Road album. The
life size sculpture has more than thirtyhidden references to the Beatles songs, an

(11:50):
album I read on Beatles at theRidge dot com That quote, as lighting
changes throughout the day, the hiddendetails in the sculpture revealed themselves to the
observer, and at night, underthe powerful lighting, the scene takes on
a surreal quality and more secrets canbe seen end quote. Not far from

(12:13):
the Beatles Park is Guitar Walk,a tribute to nine rock and roll legends
who performed along the Rock and RollHighway sixty seven. This just isn't any
normal tribute, It's pretty unique.Guitar Walk happens to be a large pathway
that you walk along with information andearphones so you can listen to stories and

(12:37):
music and read about the legends.Yes, the pathway tells you the stories
like your grandfather used to. Thispathway is about one hundred and fifteen feet
long and forty feet wide. Inthe best part, the pathway is in
the shape of a huge epiphone casino, which was modeled after the very guitar

(13:00):
Linen played. I will try andremember to post some pictures of this place
every year. In September, whichis the month the Beatles flew in,
walnut Ridge hosts Beatles at the RidgeFestival. The website describes Beetles at the
Ridge as a music festival with manydifferent attractions. They have a wings cook

(13:22):
off, a car show, manyvendors, and an octopus garden for kids,
which isn't an actual octopus and itdoesn't have any It's just a kiddy
area with rides and jump houses.Please take a moment to hear a word
from our sponsors. The crime ratein Walnut Ridge is two point five seven

(13:50):
per one thousand residents, which ismuch lower than the state of Arkansas and
much lower than the national crimes rate. The town didn't have murders or numerous
missing children. The town was quiet, and that's what the residents were used
to, so you can only imaginethe shock of the community when they discovered

(14:13):
a well known and loved fourteen yearold girl was missing. As the days
went on and Sidney Nicole Randall wasnowhere to be found, the situation just
got more and more bizarre, andin the end, not all questions will
be answered, and a community willnever be the same. While all questions
might not be answered, and folksmay never know all the details, one

(14:37):
thing we do know is that DNAevidence can sometimes paint a very ugly picture.
In January nineteen ninety eight, Californiabanned smoking in all bars and restaurants.
The Denver Broncos would become the firstAFC team in fourteen years to win
the Super Bowl, defeating Green Bayby eight points. Abortion clinic in Birmingham,

(15:01):
Alabama, is bombed, killing oneand severely wounding others. In February,
voters in Maine repeal at gay rightslaw that was passed in nineteen ninety
seven. On March twenty third,nineteen ninety eight, the seventieth Annual Academy
Awards is hosted by Billy Crystal andThe Awful, Terrible Movie that It is

(15:24):
sorry, guys. Titanic took homeeleven oscars. During that same month,
in Arkansas, teenagers Mitchell Johnson andAndrew Gold would open fire on classmates during
a fire drill in Jonesborough, notfar from walnut Ridge. In April,

(15:52):
City Corps and Travelers Group would announcetheir merge, creating City Group, and
an F five tornado will hit westernAlabama, killing thirty two people. In
May nineteen ninety eight, the UnitedStates Department of Justice, along with twenty
US states, file an antitrust caseagainst Microsoft. In May, Saturday Night

(16:15):
Live star Phil Hartman is murdered byhis wife in his home, right before
she killed herself. In June nineteenninety eight, the GM parts factory in
Flint, Michigan will go on strike, with five other assembly plants following within
seven weeks. And the Great MichaelJordan played his last game with the Chicago

(16:37):
Bulls, helping them win their sixthNBA title in eight years. Open Chicago
with Lene. If that's the lastimage of Michael Jordans, how magnificent is
beating the Utah Jazz by one point. The Chicagogo have won their sixth NBA

(17:03):
championship and it's their second point andOn July fifteenth, nineteen ninety eight,
a beautiful girl was born in Jonesboro, Arkansas, to Victor and Denise.
They named her Sidney Nicole Randall.Sidney's big brother, Ben was three years
older but very excited for her tojoin the family. Although the relationship between

(17:29):
Victor and Denise would not last,she would find love again with a man
named John, and they would welcometheir child, Zach, into the world
in two thousand and one. Soonafter that, John and Denise would marry
Ben, and Sydney still had arelationship with their father, Victor and would
visit him, even though they livedwith Denise and John full time. Denise

(17:51):
had developed some health issues over theyears, including being diagnosed with cancer,
which she would eventually be and havingmajor back issues, ending with her under
going back surgery. Due to thehealth issues Denise suffered from, she was
deemed disabled and John was the breadwinner. He worked as a farmhand in Clover
Ben. This was just one ofthe things that allowed John to feel like

(18:14):
he was in complete control over Deniseand the children. Denise described John as
a selfish person. He drank alot and did not want anyone interrupting his
drinking time. Denise started to noticethe marriage falling apart and getting worse and
worse by the day due to Denise'sback issues. She said that their sex

(18:36):
life did not exist anymore. Itwould cause her so much pain and it
was something that she no longer wantedto do. John would get very rough
with her, knowing she was inpain. I was about to start the
next sentence with one of the lasttimes that she remembers them having sex,
because that's how she said it inthe article, but I quickly realized I
cannot word it that way, becausethis was not just sex. John physically

(19:03):
forced her to have sex with him. She did not have a choice.
He threw Denise, who is tiny, maybe weighing a hundred pounds, down
on the bed and raped her.He placed his hand around her neck and
began strangling her. John got pleasureout of hurting Denise. Denise's back pain
just got worse and worse. Shewould have to spend her days in bed,

(19:26):
sometimes medicating with what she could,and pain medication is known to knock
people on their ass. Eventually,she would undergo back surgery, but this
would put her even more out ofcommission. I had double back surgery back
to back, twenty days apart,and I couldn't even walk or sit on

(19:48):
the toilet to peep by myself.I can't imagine John actually taking care of
Denise. Often during times like these, life can just get away from you.
Please take a short moment to hearanother word from our sponsors. Sidney
had always been such a bright andhappy child. She was well known throughout

(20:11):
the community and very well ld.She stayed busy. She played softball and
participated in the Girl Scouts, allwhile competing in pageants. Sydney grew into
such a beautiful young lady inside anneout. She had this bubbly personality with
a constant smile on her face.She continued to stay active throughout her school

(20:36):
years. She played sports and competedin pageants, which was her all time
favorite thing. She was a beautyqueen. She was competing since the age
of two, and during her seventhand eighth grade year she would be crowned
Miss Bobcat and I assume that isa huge deal. Sydney's popular larity continued

(21:00):
to follow her all the way intomiddle school. She was on the flagline
team the dance team, band,and the volleyball team, all while continuing
to kill it in the pageantry world. Sidney Nicole was just so vibrant and
full of life. John and Sidneyweren't that close while she was growing up.

(21:23):
He would spend most of his timewith Zach and often been, but
never spent much time with Sydney.That started to change around two twelve.
He started to take Sydney with himhunting instead of the boys. He became
very protective of her and would notallow her to do much. She was

(21:44):
not allowed to stay overnight at afriend's house or even have a boyfriend.
If he found out that she wastalking to a boy, he would take
her phone and ground her. Hewould ground her over the weirdest stuff.
Every night, he would go intoher room and shut the door. Denise
said he would stay in there forthirty to forty minutes, but she didn't

(22:06):
think anything of it. He wasjust being a stepdad helping his child.
After a while, Denise started tofeel like John was spending too much time
with her. She told him thathe really needed to start spending time with
Ben because he had enlisted in theMarines and he was about to leave for
boot camp. After a while,Denise started to feel like John was spending

(22:30):
too much time with her. Shetold him that he really needed to start
spending time with Ben because he hadenlisted in the Marines and he was about
to leave for boot camp. Johncompletely ignored the request and continued on with
how he was living his life.Later, Denise will come out in an
interview and say that she suspected thatJohn may have been molesting Sydney, but

(22:55):
that she wasn't sure. Sidney's father, Victor, and his living partner also
later said that they suspected that Johnwas molesting Sydney. Victor was quoted saying
she said she was going to tell. During this time, Sidney's personality started
to change. Sure, she's ateenager and her hormones are going crazy,

(23:17):
but the girl who always had aglowing smile on her face started to become
distant. She told her friends thatshe was scared of John. She said
that he was mean to her andhe hit her once. Her father,
Victor, and her brother Ben bothsaid that Sidney was afraid of John.
Around February, John went into Hand R Block and filed his two and

(23:41):
twelve taxes. This was something thatDenise used to handle but couldn't. He
didn't tell her about it either,and on the eighth of February he received
a refund of almost seven thousand dollars, and by the end of February almost
all but a few dollars was gone. He went on a shopping spree,
mainly for himself. He spent almosta thousand dollars at an outdoorsman store purchasing

(24:07):
a gun. He bought Sidney avery expensive pageant dress, something he has
never done in the past. Hebought nearly fifteen hundred dollars in electronics at
Best Buy, including a laptop forhimself and for Sydney. Ben was pissed.
He said that he'd been asking hisparents for a computer for a long
time, so he wasn't very happywhen he found out that John purchased two,

(24:30):
but none were for him. OnSaturday, March ninth, twenty thirteen,
Denise, John, Zach and Sydneywere outside doing yardwork. Denise would
describe it as any normal day.Ben was in jones Borough for most of
the day training for the Marines.John ran a few errands, each time,

(24:53):
taking Sidney with him. These wereconfirmed with videos and receipts. They
brought home lunch after picking it upfrom McDonald's around eleven am. Ben returned
home around two pm and started tohelp the family finish up the yardwork.
When they were finished, Ben wentfor a run at the park. John
went inside and took a nap whilethe other three showered and prepared for the

(25:15):
night. When Ben returned home aroundsix pm, his friend Cody was with
him. He asked if his friendcould stay the night, and this apparently
pissed John off because he was quotedsaying, I guess that puts a cramp
in my plans. I was planningon drinking tonight. They all finished eating

(25:36):
supper around eight thirty. Denise,John, Sidney, and Zach watched TV
while Ben and Cody hung out inhis room. Denise went to bed around
ten pm. She said she tooka Xanax to help her sleep. She
said Sidney was in the kitchen gettingsomething to drink, and John and Zach
were in the living room watching TV. John usually stays up later than Denise,

(25:59):
watching TV and drinking. When shegoes to bed, she leaves the
small lamp on it and when hegets in bed, he turns it off.
Around four or five am, Denisewoke up because the light was still
on. She reached over to John'sside to find it empty. She figured
that John fell asleep in the livingroom, so she went in there to
wake him up, only to findZach asleep on the couch but no John.

(26:23):
She was a bit foggy because ofthe Xanix she took, but she
looked around and noticed that John's phoneand wallet were on the table. She
looked outside to see if his truckwas there, but it was gone.
She could not figure out what wasgoing on, so she started checking the
kid's rooms, first Ben and Cody. They were in there asleep, and

(26:45):
then she checked Sydney's room. Whenshe walked in, the room was empty.
This was the point when she startedto worry. She woke the boys
up and asked them if they knewwhere John or Sydney were. She thought
may maybe Sidney went to a friend'shouse and John found out and went and
looked for her. Denise started callingaround to all of Sydney's friends. They

(27:08):
all told her that she was notthere and they hadn't seen her. At
this point, Denise calls nine oneone. Yes, I I woke up
at three o'clock in the morning andmy father and my husband is gone,

(27:30):
and I was if there was acar accident or could help me in any
way. Okay, I haven't heardof any Your number six three seven,
Yeah, okay, what's your name? It's Denise cor Now, okay,
I'm gonna have to call you aboutjust one minute. Okay, okay,
thank you. Denise was then contactedand a police officer was sent to her

(27:56):
home. She stepped outside to lookaround and wait for the officer. A
few minutes later, John pulls upin his truck alone. He looks at
Denise confused and asks her what inthe hell she was doing outside at five
am. Denise told him that shehad to call the police and that she
was waiting for them because Sidney wasmissing. John looks at Denise and says

(28:22):
that's bullshit and starts to back up. She yells, where are you going?
He tells her that he's going straightto the police station to report Sidney
missing. Why wouldn't he just waitfor the police officer that was already on
his way, She said, Ialready called the police and they are on
their way. Just a few minuteslater, the police officer arrives at the

(28:47):
Cornell home. It's about five twentysix am. Denise went over the timeline
of the last twenty four hours allthe way up to win John backed out
of the driveway. The police officerchecked with the apartment and they said that
nobody has came in and made anykind of report. The officer takes Denise's
statement and the police ask if shethought that Sydney was in danger. She

(29:12):
told the officer that it seems likeshe ran off with her stepdad and if
that was the case, she's notin danger. And if that was the
case, she's not in danger.So Sydney's situation doesn't fit the criteria for
an Amber alert. Later that day, the police department receives a call Lawrence

(29:33):
Cammy Communications. Hi, Yes,I reported a missing teenager this morning and
I have an update that she mightwhere she might possibly be and we might
seam up possibly be with. CouldI talk to it Officer Plice? Oh?
Okay, hold on or is Imiss him from one it Rich?

(29:59):
I talked to it Tony h.He was the one that took the report.
Okay, This is where the recordingcuts off, and no other recording
was in the file. It's verystrange that they included a couple recordings and

(30:22):
a lot of them were cut off, and they didn't include the second part.
But I did receive all of theinvestigator's notes and case, so I
just have to retell it to you. Denise tells the officer that when he
took her statement, she told himthat she did not think John would hurt
Sydney, but now that she thoughtabout it, she's changed her mind.

(30:45):
She thinks that they may be together, and that she is in fear of
Sidney's safety. She told the policeofficer that John has abused her before in
the past and that she is afraidhe will hurt Sydney. In the investigator's
notes, he wrote, quote,we discussed that the rest of the family
did not think John would hurt Sydney. I'm not totally sure what they meant

(31:08):
by that, but it was inthe investigator's note. I would like to
think that they would believe the motherand look further into what she's reported.
By this time, the community wasalready helping in the search for Sydney.
Friends, family, and strangers cameto Walnut Ridge to help search for Sydney

(31:29):
throughout the day. Not even twentyfour hours later, a rack hunter from
walnut Ridge will stumble upon a gruesomediscovery. Tommy went rack hunting around one
am that morning. He stuck aroundhis first location for a few hours before
leaving and heading to a new location. He drove out to walnut Ridge Road

(31:52):
and continued past where the pavement ended. After he crossed the first creek,
he made a right turns he madethis turn, he noticed headlights shining to
his left. He turned around backonto walnut Ridge Road, traveling a short
distance to the next creek. Hetraveled north where he saw the headlights again
on the side of a ditch.He grew closer and the lights turned off.

(32:15):
He said. When he passed bythe truck, it was around four
thirty am. He didn't see anyonearound the truck, but noticed it was
a red Ford pickup. It appearedto be parked there facing the south.
As he drove off, he said, he noticed a flashlight shining on his
truck, coming from the same areawhere he saw the red truck. Not

(32:36):
knowing what was going on, hedrove off. Later that day, he
saw the news that the police werelooking for a red Ford pickup truck.
It fit the description of the truckthat he saw, so he decided to
call it in and report the situation. The police arrived at the location approximately
four miles down Old walnut Ridge Road. They located the four to pickup truck.

(33:01):
Not long after, they located thebody of John Cornell. He was
lying face down in blue nylon basketballshorts, a gray T shirt, brown
work boots with no socks and nounderwear. He had a pack of pal
malls in his pocket along with alighter, and about five feet west of

(33:21):
John was a brown ball cap witha pair of sunglasses inside. It looked
like they were placed there next toJohn liar Remington's semi automatic handgun. The
hammer was pulled back on the weaponand it was loaded with Winchester forty five
auto hollow point ammunition. The gunhad one round in its chamber and four

(33:43):
rounds in the magazine. Evidence pointedto suicide. He had a self inflicted
gunshot wound to his head. Atthis point, they activated an amber alert
because it was obvious that Sydney wasin danger. Please take a moment to
year a word from our sponsors fora third night, friends and family continue

(34:05):
to search for a missing fourteen yearold girl, Britty Johnson. Johnny Us
now with the very latest in thisstory that she has been caring for sometime.
She's live in walnut Ridge Tonight.Any news Brittany so far, no
news, no clues from the cruisethat are still on the ground searching for
this fourteen year old. We're toldthat they will continue to search throughout the
night. And there's one person whowishes she could be out there helping them,

(34:29):
and that Sydney Randall's mother. Butshe's following authorities instructions to stay at
home and wait. It's very hardto stay at the hope when your very
girl is up in. Miss DeniseCornell has been waiting by the phone for
days. My best thing I cando is to be home answering the phone
in case she called. The lasttime she saw her daughter, Sydney,

(34:51):
it was Saturday night. We areplanning for her to come home. Her
friends are waiting for her, whoare picking apart county maps, zeroing in
on farms, creek beds, everyplace they think there is a chance Sydney.
Maybe. They started with an areaoff County Road four thirty eight,
where her stepfather, John Cornell wasfound shot to death from an apparent self

(35:15):
inflicted gunshot wounds. Turning up nothing, they're now moving further out toward county
lines. Anxiously waiting inside the onlyline de Nase Cornell is focused on is
her phones, jumping at every ring, hoping it's the one for waiting for
that call that says that they havefound her. Sydney Randall's brothers actually skip

(35:40):
school today to join in the searchfor their sister. The family and law
enforcement say they're not going to giveup until they find her again. Crews
are out here looking throughout the countytonight, and we're told that more volunteers
are expected to join them in themorning. The following day, the police
visit the Cornell residence to do asearch of the home. Denise gave them

(36:01):
verbal consent to perform the SERF.First, they went into Sydney's room,
where they took into evidence a setof Sydney's bedsheets. Denise explained that her
mother was sick in the hospital,and on March second, she went to
stay with her mother. Upon return, Denise found that the sheets had been
removed from the bed this was notnormal. She was the only person who

(36:23):
did the laundry. They hadn't beenwashed yet, and she definitely thought the
situation was weird, but didn't askor do anything. They also took in
two cell phones and two handwritten notesthat they found in Sydney's room from the
home. They also removed all ofthe computers and laptops. They received names

(36:45):
and numbers of all of Sydney's friendsfrom her mother. The police questioned four
of Sydney's closest friends, kimber Lindsay, Alissa, and Kimberly. I received
two of the interviews and will playthem for you now. My name is
Alan Earnhard. I'm a special agentwith the Arkansas State Place. Today's date

(37:07):
is March the twelfth, twenty thirteen. The time is eleven fifteen am.
I'm at the Walnut Ridge Middle Schoolto conduct an interview with Alyssa Jones.
Alyssa Jimmy getting your day of birth? Five honey, Now, okay,

(37:28):
and you we talked a minute agoand you already know we're here to talk
about your friend, Yes, Sydney. Okay, alright, how long have
you known Sydney? Um, I'vegone to school with her for nine years.
Me and her haven't really gotten closeduntil this year. We got closer

(37:49):
last year, but this year we'vegotten really close and we're talking about school
year or yeah since January. Yes, I talked about school year August September

(38:09):
when we started. Yeah I have. I had banded with her and we
had band practices this summer and meand her we got close to Okay.

(38:30):
Um, she had made boyfriends.No, she didn't really miss with a
near that that I knew love.Um, she have a good home laugh.
She I heard her mention a coupleof times that she did not like

(38:52):
her stepdad. Um, I neverheard anything. They just stood out to
me about it. She didn't talkabout it a lot, but like she
never really. I wanted to bringit up around her because I didn't,
you know, I want to justcome up and ask if anything was wrong

(39:14):
with her, But she never wouldjust come right out and tell me anything
about it. She feels like somethingwas wrong. No, not really.
I knew that her mom had beensick, but that's it. Okay.

(39:37):
You know you're close friends, youcan find stuff, and you know,
I can find in my close friendsthat my distant friends. I don't you
know you understand that? And uh, you know, I I've said,
don't don't tell anybody this, butI don't tell you. You know you've
been in the same situation. Yeah. I guess it's just human nature to

(40:01):
be that way, you know.And you know I tried to abide by
the unwritten rule. This is acase where we can't go by the rule
because we've got a person that weneed to locate whilst and you understand that,
yes, And I mean if oneI'm wanting to know, is she

(40:22):
she told you any anything that's everwent on? But she didn't like her
step dad. You told me thatanything at all that's went on between the
two of them. No, shenever said anything like that, anything sexually.
No. I've had other people toldme that they that she told them

(40:43):
that, But she never told methat. When did these people tell you
this? Um? They came inand told they told me today that they
told I think one of the counselorsthat he had been molesting her. H

(41:07):
and you know, to clarify thatthat would be right, Yes, mum,
who was that student? Um?Kimber Yarboro, Courtney Winston and Mary
Moore told me that they told theyCancelor, Kimberly Yarboro and Courtney Winston.

(41:40):
I don't think. I don't thinkSidney told Courtney. I think that Kimber
told Courtney about it and Courtney decidedto tell Now. I know she told
Mallory about it, and I knowshe told Kimber. Okay, before today,
did you have any idea that hewas molesting her? I had thought

(42:06):
maybe he has after everything that's beengoing on, like what's been going on,
just with everything that I've been hearingthat you've been hearing, or that
Sydney actually told you that I've beenhearing. Did you go to her house
and hang out with her? No? My mom is she doesn't let me.

(42:27):
She's very rightly left me with theclasses. Sydney ever come up with
your class? Did you ever hangout of town or anything? So you're
you're close with her? I understandthat, but your relationship is all school
related. Yes, mainly, saysthe band. Did you have some other
classes to get you had every classbefore lunch together? Okay? The past

(42:53):
not wed yeah, the last yearokay. But Cindy just wasn't attap to
talk about her personal life that muchand Cindy ever told you about going home

(43:21):
drives with the family or with thestep dad run, you know, she
told me that, um, hetook her to Batesful to get her dress
through the pagins. It's coming up. And when she told me, she
showed me to their feet and sheactually thought she was kind of surprised that
he spent six hundred dollars under dressfor her. Okay, did did she

(43:46):
say her mother was, don't tellyou or anything. You know, my
um my mom, she's really intothe page and stuff, and she's really
just friends with the owner of thedress shop. And she called my mom
asking if she knew that people,and my mom told her yeah, And
she told her that when they werein there, that it was just weird

(44:07):
the way he was involved with herand everything. She said that it's not
unusual for das to come in therebuying dresses for their daughters. That they
usually just sit off in the corner, and she said he was just weirdly
involved with her. Yeah, yeah, right, I was. Can you

(45:00):
think of anything else any place thatyou might think she could be or anything
like that, I honestly don't know. Did you talk with her on the

(45:30):
phone occasionally, but not anytime recentlyor even know she had a phone recently,
not that I can think of.No Facebook or email or anything.
I didn't really messing your own Facebookeither, Okay, me and her really

(45:52):
remaining school friends. Sure, Okay, he listen. I'm gonna let you
get out of here and get backto class. It's eleven twenty five am.
The interview now, Okay, thankyou very much. From the detective's

(46:15):
notes. When he interviewed Kimber,she said that Sidney was dating an older
guy, but she didn't know hisname or any information about him. She
said that Sidney told her that shedidn't like her stepdad and was afraid of
him because he attempted to rape her. Kimber said that she told her this
right before the pageant on February ninth. Sidney didn't tell her much about it,

(46:39):
so she didn't know when or whereit happened or any of the details.
The name's Allan Earnhard. I'm aspecial agent for the Arkansas State Police.
Today's day is March twelfth, twentythirteen. The time is approximately ten
ten am. I'm at the walnutRidge Middle School to conduct an interview with

(47:04):
Kimberly Milgram. Okay, Kimberly,want your guy to Barth four nineteen ninety

(49:30):
She's grounded her? Well, shegrounded? What what world? She
did? Get grounded? Her stepdad said that she wasn't spending enough time
with the family and so he tookher privilege priviledge away. When did he
do this back in December? Shehad been grounded since December? Are you

(49:50):
serious? And she had just gotun grounded when he grounded her again and
did have a foot out. Itwas to lie when he ground her.
All right, when she's grounded,what what privileges does she have? Pretty

(50:15):
much to come to schooling back.They usually let her go with me,
my dad or just sending out.And that's felt pretty much anything like all
that she gets to do? Doyou get to hang out, whether any
on weekends or anything, when she'sgrounded, you do? I have to

(50:35):
go over there that you hang out, whether in her house or whatever?
Yeah? Is that where you cango in her room? Yeah? All
we hang out with her mom andall of them yeah, okay, um,
and you know this is really importantbecause we're trying to find her.
Yeah, you know, hopefully she'sgonna be okay, but we don't know

(50:59):
that. You know. That's whywe need to find her really quickly,
and we're trying to get all theinformation we can get. I'm not from
here, so I don't know anybody. And when somebody comes in, you
know, it says they're the bestfriend. That's how I want to talk
to you, because you know thingsy'all talk. You know, I talk
to my best friend and tell him. I don't know if you'd call it

(51:21):
sacreds or whatever, but you know, some of them might be sacred.
Some of it, you know,they just between me and him. But
you know, at this point,as serious as it is, you know,
that's that's Uh, that's really whatI want to talk to you.
And it's going to ask you didn'twhat about Sydney's boyfriend? But A good
time for birthday in July. Yes, we were all over there in Asian

(51:45):
town and a grinam Kaylin, we'rethere. We were talking to about him,
Joseph and as she ended up fordating journey for like maybe two days
Joseph. Yeah, I didn't knowwhen I didn't want to go school here.
No, he goes to Jonesborough somewhere, Okay, And like she'll have

(52:08):
crushes, but she's never really actuallyhad a real real boyfriend, and like
she'll talk to him and especially ina relationship with him and stuff like that
on Facebook, but they never reallymeet. You know, you think she's
just kind of saying it, butit's not really happening, that what you're

(52:30):
saying. Yeah, okay, Sothis was last July when she went up
with a guy named Joseph a coupleof times, and he's from Jonesborough.
How did he get that theory?Grab? Like they never met. We
were supposed to out of the mallthe very next day after on her birthday
and I ended up not going,and they were supposed to meet up with
him and they never get so thatshe meet him on Facebook or something,

(52:52):
okay, but she hadn't actually meethim face to face. Yeah, is
that correct? Okay? And that'sabout the same time you said she was
grounded, Like it was three dayslater she got grounded. Why do you
think she got grounded? She tellyou you don't have any he grounds her

(53:13):
for random rasings and so don't tellme about like grounded for there's much time
in her bed room or not notfeel that time of family when else she
did. She's at home, she'snot allowed to go anywhere. And if
she gets un grounded, she didn'tget eight none of her stuff back because
she's grounded all the time. Howlong has this been going on? But

(53:35):
as far as getting grounded is it? It didn't as long as women friends.
Okay, for the past three yearsshe has been getting grounded and it's
always by her step dad. Yeah, she'll henna trouble by her mom at
her start dable grounded. Okay.Has she talked about her stepdad to you?
Yeah, she says that he's beento her. She don't lock him

(53:57):
room and she thinks he don't lockher Okay. What she means by mean
and mean to her like I'm liketalking hateful towards her, or I book
play fight like you know, wrestle, But I mean he takes it a

(54:17):
little bit too far. He rastle'swith her. Yeah, she's not very
big, No, she's grown here. Okay, all right, what do
you mean by taking the rastling toofar? There's a certain point like,
yeah, I play wrestling that hegoes to like another step and actually goes
into tumbling her and stuff like that. Yeah, yeah, I think that's

(54:39):
a little bit too far, becausehave you seen her? She just told
you, I'm seeing some of it. You've seen some of it has and

(55:00):
this is kind of hard to talkabout. So has she ever said anything
about her stepdad and he'll mistreat hersexually? She has told me that she
could. She wakes up here tonight and probably around two and he'll just
be singing there over watching her.And that's as far as she told me.

(55:22):
I don't know what she's told anybodyelse. Do you think she's holding
back something because she always has aterrified look in her face and she talks
about it, and she shouldn't havethat look. But when she told you

(55:44):
that, you think she wasn't thesame Moor and just didn't have the courage
or was embarrassed or something. Yeah, that's that's your true fa do you
when you think she confided to anybodyelse some of her other best friends,
who do you think she might confounding? Last night at the ceremony we had
for it was a grown named KimberYarborough. Kimberly Garbro, Yeah, I

(56:07):
don't know how you sawing. Andwe were talking and she said, I
wish I would have told somebody whatshe told me. Where's she from,
Kimberly Yarbrough. I think you fromWantage. She got to school here in
Let School and you're great. Yeah? Are you friends with her? Yeah?

(56:30):
Have you and her talk about this? We talked last time. What
did you say, Kimberly? Whatwhat are you talking about? I said,
kimber what are you talking about?Right? And what she said to
you? She told me about himtouching her in all this, and I
was like, what touching her?Saber areas? Okay? And I know

(56:53):
the one person she would talk towould we shouldn't tell buds? And she
god were in the hospital, okay. And so you and Kimberly Yarborough had
a conversation last night and was thisthe first time anyone's ever really said it

(57:16):
to you? But you had yoursuspicions or what is that correct? You
never did ask Sydney if he wasabusing her. I wasn't like scared you
okay. And Kimberly Yarboro, thisis the first time that you heard this

(57:44):
from anybody that he was sexually touchingher. Did she go into any detail
when she said, Dad, Ijust had to hug. I understand.
I understand that. Do you knowif Kimberbolys tells this to anybody else?

(58:07):
I don't know. Okay, Isthere anything else you can fuct that might
help us locate this girl? Didshe ever say where her stepman took her

(58:29):
any certain place that would go orvisit? I know one time she told
me she took her driving and onthe back road right any you don't know
which back road, she says,talking about the seminary roads that I've been
up there before driving and I prettymuch to know those held back roads.

(58:52):
And there's it's some houses up therethat are banded worre some US road,
Um I hear roval wards. Youcan go on that road and that leads
to old Walntge Road. Yeah.And if you turn down that road to
the ls and go all the waydown and then not before you get to

(59:14):
the Watte church and turn on theravel road, you go like all the
way straight. You'll find a bunchof houses that are like empty, but
they're own cemetery road or cemetery however, you know, I just call it
a cemetery road because there's a cemeteryon it. Okay, So you go
down Cemetery Road and you you goto walnut Ridge Road, the old wad

(59:37):
old Ridge Ve. So actually you'reon that road then, aren't you.
Yeah, And then you go tothe churches in there, I don't know
what the name of it is,and turn left. Yeah, and then
I go to the church there.Before you get to the church into the
gravel road. But like you,if you stop in the middle world,

(59:58):
you see the church and you're rightside of the the road. If you
turned rot, you can go downthat road and you can just see how
the dunes did. Okay, mhmm. But as far as what Sidney

(01:00:22):
ever told you directly was about himstanding over smell and that she'd like she
never she never did, did yousilent ago she confinded in you that he
touched her or was that? Butyou had suspicions, yeah, because he

(01:00:45):
just come here. Put it offat that. I mean, you gave
me the creepy a lot, right, Okay, Um, I ain't got
anything else. We started talking aboutten minutes after ten and it's ten twenty

(01:01:08):
five right now. So if youcan't got anything else I want to in
the interview, I appreciate you comingto hand. They ran a forensics scan
on John's computer, and located onthe hard drive was fifty nine adult erotic
images, one age difficult image,sixty five thousand, five hundred and twenty

(01:01:34):
three never been seen before images.I'm not sure what that is, but
it doesn't sound good. Three thousand, one hundred and twenty nine marked as
evidence of child pornography. Evidence Finderwas also ran and located five hundred and
nine u rls in the browser history, including twenty four classified ads, eighty

(01:01:57):
dating sites, and three thousand,eight hundred and sixty seven Internet explorers in
private mode. What they found onhis computer did not make the situation any
better. They went back to theCornell's home and questioned Ben and Denise again.
Ben told the police that he reada note that was found in Sydney's
room that said something like this maybe the last letter I write. He

(01:02:22):
said it was obvious that John favoredSydney over the boys. He said he
suspected that John was sexually abusing Sydneybecause it was weird that John would go
into her room every night and shutthe door. Entering the eighth week of
the search for Sydney, John's sisterwas here from Australia to help with the

(01:02:44):
search and help handle the media.The family wanted to say how thankful they
were for the local authorities and everyperson who has helped in the search,
and urge everyone to continue searching forSydney. The last time that Leah John's
sister boke with him was four monthsprior to his suicide. She compared their

(01:03:05):
relationship as brother and sister to twins. She said that they were very close.
She did not believe it was asuicide and thinks something suspicious happened,
even though by this time the medicalexaminer's report confirmed that John's cause of death
was a self inflicted gunshot wound tothe head suicide. Her reasoning was because

(01:03:28):
he never gave any indication that anythingwas wrong. Not everyone announces their pain
and suicidal thoughts, and sometimes itoccurs when the person feels their life is
over, and I'm sure John knewwhere he was heading. She also expressed
her disbelief that John was sexually abusingSydney. She said that there was no

(01:03:50):
proof, but there was proof.I just don't know if she was in
denial or if the evidence had notbeen released yet to the family. Leah
said her brother was never a sexoffender, so the allegations of sexual abuse
are ridiculous. He would never doanything like that to his stepchild, and
she was determined to clear his name. Leah said quote he thought the world

(01:04:15):
of her que She went on totalk about the hurt the families going through
and how close she was to Sydney. They would spend hours on the phone
talking about makeup and clothes. Shesaid she believed wholeheartedly that Sidney was alive
and wanted the two families to worktogether to bring her home. Some people
stay in denial. She mentioned thather parents drove to Missouri to hand out

(01:04:41):
flyers. When asked why in Missouri, she said that they spoke with Sidney's
brother, Ben, who sent thaton March sixteenth, he received a message
from a friend that told him Sidneywas heading to Saint Louis and she was
one hundred percent willing. The conversationthat Ben had was posted as the video
online and showed texts and dates,but was soon removed. It was very

(01:05:03):
shady. John's father was asked wherehe thinks she is, and he said
he thought she was in a smalltown outside of Saint Louis on Highway US
sixty seven or I fifty five,south of Saint Louis, maybe staying with
relatives. The dates showed that theconversation would have taken place on March sixteenth,

(01:05:25):
and soon they'll realize that that wouldbe impossible. After John's suicide,
Denise made statements alleging that John sexuallyabused Sydney. She made the statements publicly.
His family was hurt by the statementsand wondered why the accusations had not
come to light until then. Ialso wonder this, prior to her knowing

(01:05:51):
about his suicide, she claimed hewas a good father figure to her and
looked out for their well being.I wonder if she thought nothing was wrong
with him and that he would comehome and almost like she didn't want to
have to deal with any of that. The medical examiner's report listed his cause

(01:06:11):
of death as suicide, a selfinflicted gunshot wound. They also found Sydney's
DNA on his body, including hispenis. This confirms, with DNA evidence
that John Cornell was sexually abusing hisstepdaughter Sidney, even if it was only
that one time, but the signswere there, and we may never find

(01:06:32):
out how long it went on,because on May eighteenth, twenty thirteen,
the entire community of walnut Ridge,and possibly the entire state, would receive
heartbreaking news. May nineteenth, twentythirteen, would have marked ten weeks that

(01:06:55):
Sydney had been missing. But theday before, a fisherman and his family
would come across something that was outof the ordinary while fishing on the Black
River. They were out on theirboat checking on some of their drop lines
when they saw what looked like amannikin tangled in the trees on the river.
As they moved in closer to theobject, the fisherman realized that this

(01:07:18):
was in fact a body. Hestopped the boat, and since the family
minus his adult son off to contactauthorities, he and his son moved closer
to the body to get a betterlook. It looked like a body of
a young female. The body wasentangled in the trees near Old Davison Lane
Park. They did not touch itor move it, but headed right back

(01:07:40):
to where the family was to waitfor authorities. Once the police arrived and
removed the body. They contacted thestate medical Examiner and let them know that
they have found a deceased, unrecognizablebody of a young female. The examiner
contacted Sidneyston and asked for her dentalrecords. Of course, they obliged and

(01:08:03):
sent them over. Sidney's family wasthen contacted and they told them that they
found a body and it's possible thatit might be Sydney. I can't even
imagine the pain and the anxiety,or the fear, the heartbreak that this
family went through waiting for those results, after waiting ten weeks just to hear

(01:08:27):
something. Not long after, theexaminer would confirm the worse. The body
found was that of fourteen year oldSidney Nicole Randall, a beautiful young lady
that was taken from this world waytoo soon. Sidney's cause of death was
blunt force trauma to the head.She had multiple skull fractures, but the

(01:08:48):
examiner could not determine if she wasalive when placed in the water. They
also found John's day on her body. Between the evidence found on both John
and Sydney's bodies, it was determinedthat sexual abuse was involved. There was
no other suspects in this case.This was an open and shut case.

(01:09:10):
There is a great book that waswritten by George Jared called The Creek Side
Bones. He knew Sydney personally,his wife taught her in school, and
his daughter plays softball with her.He was able to get a hold of
the autopsy report for John that didnot have redacted information like the one I
received. He did confirm that theDNA evidence from Sydney was found on John's

(01:09:34):
penis. He also covers a fewother cases in the book. George was
also featured on True Murder podcast wherehe mentions his theory of what happened.
His personal opinion is that it's possibleJohn had hurt Sydney while raping her,

(01:09:54):
freaked out and killed her because shewas raped right before she was killed.
Once the news broke, it seemedlike people started to speak up about the
sexual abuse victor. Her father wasquoted saying she told one of her friends
that John slugged her in the mouth. She was scared of him, she

(01:10:15):
was going to tell I don't wantto speculate that her friends and family had
any idea of what John was doingto Sydney. Abuse is hard to see
and hard to report, especially ifDenise was also being abused. Of course,
she would be frightened to tell anyoneanything. I was not in their
shoes, and I hopefully never willbe. I can only make an opinion

(01:10:38):
off the case report that I receivedfrom Arkansas State Police and off the media
that I've read and seen. SoI feel like Sidney was probably abused for
a while, maybe a year orso. Something tragic happened during the late
hours of March ninth, twenty thirteen, but the only people who know exactly
what happened are John Sidney, whichmeans we may never get the whole truth.

(01:11:03):
What we can do, though,is take what we have learned from
incidents and try to be more alertwhen we come across signs of sexual abuse.
One in every ten children will experiencesexual abuse before their eighteenth birthday.
That is scary. Thirty percent ofchildren sexually abused are abused by family members,

(01:11:26):
and the chances are always higher forchildren with divorced parents. It's all
so sad, especially because the statisticsaren't accurate due to so many assaults not
being reported. Strangers aren't the onlyones who groom their victims. Family members
stepparents, older siblings. Anyone cangroom their victim. It's not always a

(01:12:00):
guarantee that the abuse will be stoppedif someone speaks up. Often there are
situations when the reports are ignored,but if one person would have spoke up,
it's possible the death of Sydney couldhave been prevented. I am not
victim blaming or putting the blame onanyone, but the case files and articles
I read had some mention of peoplesuspecting that there was abuse, Why wasn't

(01:12:24):
anything done. I just hope thatby telling others about this case and they're
in this situation, they'll speak up. If you or someone you know is
suffering from any type of abuse,speak up, reach out. There are
people who care that don't even knowyou. There are so many organizations that
you can contact if you do notfeel safe telling a relative. The following

(01:12:46):
hotlines are important numbers to have.The National Sexual Assault halt Line one eight
hundred six five six four six seventhree. The National Domestic Abuse Hotline one
eight hundred seven nine nine seven twothree three. The National Child Abuse hot
Line one eight hundred four eight childor one eight hundred four two two four

(01:13:13):
four five three and the National Suicidehot Line one eight hundred two seven three
eight two five five never forget thatyou matter, all right, y'all.
That's it for episode twenty eight.It ended up being such a heartbreaking case,
very hard to research and write,but an important case to get out.

(01:13:36):
Thank you again for sticking it outwith me and coming back to download
an episode. We will be finishingoff the Rushed Execution series next with the
last two inmates of the Arkansas Eight, Kenneth Williams and Jason McGehee. I'm
looking forward to a new year fullof amazing episodes, and I wouldn't be
