Chapter 90 Section 12

Suddenly, so many police cars suddenly appeared from nowhere, surrounding the Joker jeep.Glenn remembered that he heard someone yelling, "Get out of the car!"He was also handcuffed. After an indeterminate amount of time, the officer ordered Glenn to stand up, and he saw his friend Lyle Monadez being wheeled into a police car.After the blue Ford disappeared from view with a puff of smoke, someone came to unlock his handcuffs and told him to go. Afterwards, Glenn Stevens heard that the police did not arrest Lyle at Monadez's home because his grandmother, José's mother Maria Monadez, lived there and they did not want to be arrested. Take her grandson away in front of the old man.Glenn also heard that the police had planned to arrest the brothers together, but they heard that Lyle was leaving Los Angeles soon, so they had to arrest him first.

At this time, Eric was participating in the International Tennis Open in Israel with his coach Mark Hoffernan. Lyle Monadez was first taken to the West Hollywood Police Station for registration, photographed, fingerprints, etc., and then sent to the Los Angeles District Men's Prison in downtown Los Angeles.That afternoon, Los Angeles District Attorney Ira Reiler told reporters at a news conference that the Monardez brothers were motivated by "greed."She said: "I don't know what kind of experience you have, but based on our many years of experience in handling cases in the District Attorney's Office, $14 million is enough to make some people have murderous thoughts." When it came to the tapes and notes of Dr. Geromi Ozer, Ira Riele replied "No comment".

The next few days and nights were the most anxious and restless in Les Zoyler's life.The media speculates that in the Middle East where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, it would be easy for Eric to abscond.Many newspapers outright criticized the police for being too eager for success.But the relatives of the Monadez family believe that Eric is very dependent on Lyle, "Even if he goes to hell, Eric will follow Lyle." Sure enough, three days later, on March 11, Eric and Mark Hoffernan returned to the United States from Israel.Eric first went to Miami, the capital of Florida, to meet his aunt Marta Kano, and then, accompanied by Mrs. Kano and his cousin Andy, flew back to Los Angeles to surrender.

The police learned from the information provided by Zhu Dairong Smythe that Lyle and Eric made a special trip to San Diego to buy guns.Les Zoeler then asked the Justice Department for a directory of stores that sold guns in the San Diego area. Investigators initially thought the Monadez brothers were unfamiliar with San Diego and could only visit stores along the Los Angeles-San Diego Freeway, but the investigation turned out to be the opposite of what they expected.Little did they know that Lyle and Eric were frequent tennis players in San Diego and knew the sporting goods stores big and small there like the back of their hands.

On March 14, Les Zoeler and another detective, Thomas Edmund, tracked down the "Big Five", a national sporting goods chain in downtown, and on August 18, 1989, the store sold Two Mossburg 12mm rifles matched to the bullets removed from the victim's body, priced at $199.95 each.The buyer's name on the weapon purchase registration form is Donovan Gudry, who lives in San Diego. Les Zoeler had interviewed Lyle's former friend at Princeton University, Donovan Gudry, who is now a restaurant manager in New York, for this case.When the police found him, Donovan said he was working in a restaurant on August 18, 1989, and had a working time card as evidence.According to the investigation, the San Diego address on the weapon purchase registration form was fake, but the driver's license number used as an identity document was actually Dongnovan Gudry's.Rice faxed a weapons purchase registration form to the New York side. It was verified that Dong Nuofan's signature on the form was forged.

Les Zoyler went to San Diego again and asked to see the security tape from that day.The store manager first said that the storage period of the video tape was three months and that it had been destroyed, but later admitted that in order to save money, the video camera was only used as a decoration, and there was no tape in it at all. Les Zoyler had to apply to the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office for a court order ordering Lyle and Eric to provide samples of their writing.After comparing with the handwriting on the "Weapon Purchase Registration Form", the police finally obtained the first physical evidence of the Monadez brothers committing the crime.

Since then, began a protracted lawsuit. Numerous relatives of the Monardez and Anderson families once again gathered in Los Angeles, Lyle and Eric's supporters included their tennis coach Mark Hoffernan, Lyle's girlfriend Jamie Bissassi and Eric's girlfriend Janice and others.Out of family affection and instinct, none of them doubted the innocence and innocence of the Monadez brothers.In particular, due to various reasons, the police and the public prosecutor have been refusing to disclose the evidence they have to the outside world. Even the two parties involved in this case, Lyle and Eric, do not know that their psychiatrist Jiromi O. Dr. Zell has been forced to hand over the tapes to the police.

The relatives hired two lawyers for Lyle, Jill Lanson and Michael Porter.Eric also had two lawyers, Leslie Aranson and Marcia Morrissey.The two prosecutors were a newlywed couple, Pam and Pete Bojanich. First of all, the hearings, appeals and re-appeals concerning the audio tapes of Dr. Geromi Ozer lasted for two years. Among the 17 tapes, 3 tapes were recorded that Lyle threatened the doctor and were related to the facts of the case, including Dr. Four talks on 28th and 11th December.Most of the remaining tapes consist of conversations about the Monadez family history that are not directly related to the case.Jewelry Smythe had told the police that Jerome Ozzel encouraged Lyle and Eric to tell all the details of what had happened in the family, saying he might be able to learn from the fragmented, seemingly unrelated In the case of Lian Lian, find out the reason that finally led to the two brothers joining forces to commit the crime.
