Woman Finds Out Her Disabled Brother Has Been Dead for 2 Days

fall never arrives all at once first the air then the light and slowly the things you love begin to find each other a jacket meets a dress a hoodie slips beneath a blazer an old cap finds a new scarf because you don't simply step into the season you create it layer by layer until it finally feels like fall find fall your way at ross hank joined bj's wholesale club the day he became a father of 30 i coach football now coach hank saves up to 25 off grocery store prices 30 pounds of pasta three cases of protein bars 75 sports drinks and that's just pre-game he knows teamwork and bj's knows savings this is your home coach home of the save join for just 20 at bjs.com slash mesquite and save 10 cents per gallon for six months open soon limited time offer new members only bj's home of the save this is anna just moments ago the police found her brother decomposing inside his own house with signs of a brutal murder but little do these officers realize edward knew his killer and even let him inside it would take detectives two days to find their suspect two years to put him in jail all because of someone hiding the truth behind the murder until the final piece of evidence finally cornered them into a heartbreaking confession are you the neighbor okay two and i all right it's good six i definitely need a supervisor here and uh yeah that's it in the kitchen the officer finds 53 year old edward lewis his face and body are beyond recognition soon the police sergeant would arrive with his partner to assist in securing the scene and what they would find would bring two horrifying conclusions this wasn't a break-in and the victim was murdered in cold blood officers quickly document the victim's injuries there is one gunshot wound to the head that would later be identified as the fatal shot two more struck his torso another hits his thigh and a grazing wound is visible on his thumb officers would also recover four spent shell casings and a deformed bullet all near the victim's body the body is also found in the early stages of decomposition suggesting it had been there for days but one thing stands out the most there are no signs of a struggle or evidence of a fight edward hadn't tried to defend himself it appears that he was caught completely off guard and ambushed but who could have done it right there officers find an even bigger clue hiding in plain sight there are no signs of forced entry the doors remain intact locks are undamaged and windowed out of sight and the victim's body is found in the aren't broken. To the detectives on the scene, that pointed to only one possible yet terrifying conclusion. Edward was killed by someone he knew and trusted enough to open his door for. With the scene now secured, officers turned to their first priority, finding out who could have wanted Edward dead, and more importantly, why. That means talking to the people who knew him best, his family, friends, and neighbors, hoping that someone can point them towards a possible suspect. Officers begin with the man who first discovered the body, Edward's next-door neighbor. "And the people are good for dumping, so I went down to check. He backed up and said it was yesterday afternoon." "Afternoon? Like around what time?" "2 o'clock." "2 p.m. There was a white pickup truck?" "Yes." "Where was it at?" "It was parked on the other side of the street like it was coming up." "Like where the cruisers are over there?" "No, down further." "Further down? Closer to like Salt Springs?" "Yeah, about halfway up this hill there. So I noticed that he backed up, and he went that way. I said, 'Let me go down and check, maybe he's going that way.'" "Oh, they got backed up?" "Yeah, he backed up." "Did he see you?" "No." "He just backed up, and then he went up Salt Springs?" "Yes." "There's no way he'd go up there anyways." "They do. They go up that exit." "Okay. They do? Okay. But he went up that exit?" "I don't know." "You don't know? He just disappeared from your view?" "Yes." "Then what'd you do?" "Well, I came back up because I couldn't find the truck. So I came back up, and I noticed the door was open." "So you went like after him, and then you turned around, you saw the garage door open." "Yes." "Okay. And then, did you go in there?" "No, I did not." "At first?" "I didn't think of it." "That was yesterday, right?" "It was yesterday." "Okay." "So I told my wife, I said, 'There's something ain't right. Why don't you get a hold of Anna, his sister. Come with me and get her.'" "No, that's okay. I just don't want you. You're smoking, whatever. Just give me some soap. Oh, you can light up." Officers received their first crucial piece of information. Edward was likely murdered on Halloween night, October the 31st, as neighbors never saw him again outside after that day. The body lay inside for two days, which matched its state of slight decomposition. But this isn't the most haunting part of the testimony. It appears someone returned to the property, lingering outside Edward's house. If that is accurate, it points to a chilling possibility. The killer came back to the scene to make sure the body had not been discovered yet. Ironically, that suspicious visit is exactly what made the neighbor finally discover Edward's body. And to remember something suspicious was going on the night before his murder. "So go ahead. Let's proceed. Let's go from there. So you went in there and you found him?" "Yeah." "Did you go upstairs or did you just go around that corner?" "No, I just went right there." "How did you know he was around that corner right there?" "Well, because I went in the kitchen. I was looking for him. I was hollering at the scene." "That's the kitchen right there. That's like the main room. Because it's weird how it's set up." "Yeah, yeah. Bathroom downstairs." "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah." "But yeah, I was looking for him." "You didn't hear any shots fired?" "I did not." "Nothing?" "The other night, some black guy came here about midnight. And he had his footie up and tied all he could see was like his nose." "When was this?" "Not last night. Maybe the night before." "Like the 31st?" "That's today." "Today's the 2nd." "Yeah, 31st or the 30th. One of the two." "What time of the night was that?" "About 12:30." "Like midnight?" "Yeah." "Like after midnight?" "Yeah." "And where was he at? Where did you see him at?" "I don't know where he appeared from. My wife came downstairs." "Yeah, I know. But where did you see him?" "On the front. He was knocking. And he kept calling his name. Because I heard him keep saying, 'Ed, Ed, Ed.'" "Well, he didn't answer. And he went around to the back." That's the confirmation the police had been looking for. Edward didn't let any stranger into his home, but someone he knew and likely trusted. Unfortunately, the neighbor had no idea who that person could have been. Just as the officer finishes speaking with him, another witness arrives: Edward's sister, Anna. She was told what happened to her brother, and she is devastated. Still, she is the officer's best lead. She may know more about the victim, and perhaps even the name of a suspect who wanted him dead. "He hung around with Ashley Carlton. She was in prison." Ashley Carlton, C-O-U-L-T-O-N, Ashley Carlton, and Paris Jones. "So Ashley is. Describe Ashley to me. White female, black female, Hispanic?" They're both black. They're both sisters. Ashley was in prison, and then Paris. He was hanging around with Paris. "Paris Jones, black female?" Yeah, they're both black. "Do you know how old are they?" They're in their thirties. "Thirties. They're sisters?" Yeah. "Why do you think that's suspicious?" Because. "Does he do drugs?" That I don't know. "Is he involved in a crime?" Well, that's what I'm thinking. I don't know what they. I just know when I was with them one time. One day in the car, in Paris' car, they had marijuana in the glove department, so I don't know. I don't know the whole story, but like he said the other night, she told me at work. Well, Friday, Friday, and then you've got to talk to her because she talked to me at work, Gail did, and told me there was a black dude over there about 12:30 at night. He went to the front door knocking, and then he went. I guess they went to the back. So, do me a favor. Sit there for a second with them if you can, okay? Okay. I'm going to have my detectives and the sergeant come over and talk to you for a second. Okay. Judging by Anna's accounts, one thing becomes clear. Whoever Paris Jones is, she played an important role in Edward's life. But what's more terrifying, Anna confirms the neighbor's disturbing account. She knew that someone had been lingering around Edward's house before the murder. If that's the case, detectives should find something that points directly to their suspect, right on the crime scene, or so they thought. Unfortunately, they found no fingerprints or DNA samples. What's worse, Edward's nearby neighbors don't have camera recordings of the murder. All they have is Edward's body, several bullet casings, and no murder weapon in sight. Detectives realize this isn't going to be an ordinary homicide investigation. With virtually no physical evidence to work with, one question comes to mind. Was the killer simply lucky, or did he carefully plan the execution with Paris Jones? Shortly after speaking with the detectives off-camera, Anna provides another major lead. Months prior to his murder, Edward met a woman called Stacey, and they quickly became close friends. Too close, even, often spending all of his free time with her alone. Stacey, however, is in trouble. She's currently in jail for an unrelated felony. But this doesn't stop the investigators from questioning her right there, inside the facility. For now, she is the second best shot at learning what happened to Edward before his murder, and how Paris Jones is involved in this. Luckily for them, their witness in orange has something unpleasant to tell them about her. So kind of lead me into how you know it. Okay, I ended up meeting him like about three months ago, four months ago, at Jordan's Market. Okay. He was going through a breakup. I was going through a breakup. He just, he just spoke to me. I was walking out of the store. He's like, "Hey, can I get your number? You look like an ex-girl." I'm like, "Oh my god, dude." That's exactly how I started, but I gave him my, I don't know what drew me to them, I gave him my number. So we ended up chit-chatting. We went out for a couple dinners, he came over to my house a couple times, I went over to his house a couple times. When I went over to his house, he explained to me about, 'cause we're getting to know each other, he explained to me about this girl that he liked, or whatever, that was basically a user to him, 'cause from what he told me, all she does is take his checks, this, that, and what have you. So she had this male friend that had just got out of prison. Did he tell you her name? Do you know what? I never asked her name, and he went to go tell me, and because of the story with what he was telling me how she was, it kind of ticked me off, so I never even asked her name. But you can find out who she is because he did something for her with children's services where he helped her get her children back from CSB. So you'll be able to, 'cause I believe the children were really even supposed to have been with him, but he just signed for them and got them back, and they were still with her. As detectives dig deeper into Paris' background, they uncover something really surprising. She has seven children from multiple populations. One of them is her mother, and the other is her father, and the other one is her sister. She lost custody of both of them, but shortly before losing them, Edward stepped up with an unusual decision. He signed these kids under his name and let them live with Paris again. At first, it might seem like nothing more than an act of compassion, until detectives uncover something far more troubling. Not everyone was as happy with how much Edward was doing for Paris. He came to find out, I believe it was September, one of her male friends got out of prison. So some girl stays with her or whatever. She's like, "Are you gonna tell. " He goes over to visit her. "Are you gonna tell him what's going on?" So she tells him, "My guy's gonna be getting out or whatever, so we're gonna have to slow things down or whatever." But from what he told me, they never had sex, nothing. She just was taking his money. And he said he knew her for about six, seven years. So he gets to telling me about the guy. He went over there when the guy got out. The guy punched him in his face, took his money out of his pocket. So in him telling me that story, I'm like, "Well, Edward, you said you've known this girl for six or seven years." I said, "Well, where did she go out this?" He said, "Stacey, she didn't do nothing." I said, "Well, Edward, and us just getting to know each other, you gotta know, if you're somewhere with me, because he's a little nerdy white guy, nobody is gonna disrespect you. There is no way on God's spring earth that I'm gonna let somebody disrespect you. We're just getting to know each other." I said, "You've known this girl for how long, and she let this dude punch you in the face and take your money?" He said, "And the boy got mad because he told me he's supposed to be taking him to a job interview." Excuse me, because I may tear up. "He's supposed to be taking him to a job interview," he said, "because the boy punched him." He said, "I'm not gonna take you." He said, "When he said that to the boy, the boy told me he's gonna kill him." So I looked at him. I said, "Ed, you know, we're just getting to know each other." I said, "But in hearing that somebody's gonna kill you, my nephew just got shot August 26th." I said, "If somebody say they're gonna kill you, Edward, you better take it serious." You know what I'm saying? I said, "Leave her alone." You know what I'm saying? The case has taken a far darker turn than detectives initially expected. Edward wasn't just assaulted, robbed, and threatened. His so-called friend, Paris, allegedly did nothing to protect the man who supported her every step of the way. To detectives, this fact alone raises a disturbing possibility. Perhaps Edward thought they were close with Paris, while she was only taking advantage of his generosity. And Stacey wouldn't be the only person to think the same. And his boss may know he worked at, um, some type of junkyard thing. Yeah, we know where you're from. Okay, did you talk- the boss should know who the girl's name is, because the boss said- would tell him, "Ed, you're stupid." He told me. He said, "My boss would tell me I'm stupid because he'd just go over there and she would take his whole check." It sounded like she came to his job to get his check, too. Yeah. And I told him, even when us- even with us meeting, I said, "I'm not like that." I said, "I work. I make dope." When I said, "After all the 2014's you had to have this, baby." I said, "Yeah, you paying for dinner right now." I said, "But the next time we go out, I'm gonna pay for dinner." I said, "Because I'm not like that." Even with me and him- and he was like, "Oh, Stacey, I like that about you." And with me and him talking- Now detectives have another theory. All this time, Paris and the ex-convict may have been using Edward together until something went wrong. Or perhaps this isn't about exploiting a disabled man. The ex-convict could have become too jealous of what he believed was a romantic relationship between Edward and Paris. And- It ended in the most brutal way possible. They can't know for sure until they ask the "boyfriend" themselves. And Stacey might just happen to know where he is right now. There's a reason you never know what's coming around the corner.

Once he got out of prison, where? Probably with her, from the way it sounded, with her, because that's where he was at. That's why it couldn't go back over the house. She was trying to tell him not to come back over the house anymore, because he said she lived in the projects. He didn't even tell me which projects, because I might have been allowed, but he told me how ignorant she was to him. It was just like, I just, which I should have asked more. I should have gotten nosy, but I didn't get nosy. Like, who is she, this, that, whatever. He told me she was a little bit younger, that she doesn't have a Facebook, this, that, whatever. I'm like, Ed, I don't know no black young people who don't have a Facebook. I said, maybe she's just telling you that. I said, but she got a Facebook. Maybe he was telling you to protect her. Exactly. I said, maybe she's telling you that, because the sounds of things, no lie, from the way he was telling me about her, she was a little over. And she had a bunch of kids and some of them were taken away by CSB. Exactly. Within hours, detectives show up right at the doorstep of Paris Jones' house, unannounced. This is a deliberate ambush to see if her testimony holds up against the information. the police already have on her. And detectives will start the interview with the most sensitive question first. The one that would expose how she really treats Edward. So, when's the last time you talked to him? Just a couple of days ago, what day? Um, like Monday. And how did you talk, in person? No, yeah, it was in person because, um, yeah, because it was on Monday because he, um, brought me some cigarettes. Because he, um, works across the street from, like, a corner store. And he usually gets cigarettes and, like, on credit and he pays them on payday. Like, it has always been there for me. And that, you saw him, you say, on Monday. And, uh, Tuesday, did you try to call him on any Tuesday? Um, yeah, from my daughter's home. What's her name? But she said that she didn't say, she wasn't answering. Did your daughter call? And actually, um, I had, that's on, well, I have a phone too, but like I said, my phone is broken. To detectives, her answer makes no sense. If Paris was worried about her friend disappearing, then why didn't she go over to check on him? At the very least, she would have discovered his body and reported it to the police. Something is off, but for now, the detectives keep their composure and ask more questions. This time, to see if Stacy's most important claims are true. Was he staying here with you for a while? And that's what I'm saying. Like, he had to get kicked out of there at that house that he was living out in Philadelphia. It was a big old mess. That landlord store stole some of his stuff. And, you know, I wanted him to have his own place the right way because, basically, he never signed a lease with that lady. So she was able to kick him out whenever, even though she was paying him to stay there and pay the security deposit and the first month's rent. So I'm like, well, you know, you're going to leave here and you can stay with me. And he ended up finding the crib in July. And he, um, because I got the lease, too, because I made a copy of his lease just so he could have that proof. Because, like, it, like, he just kind of, like, been through a lot in his life. Like, so I just, he had my back. I always had his back. Now, Paris sounds more suspicious than ever. She claims to have encouraged Edward to move out just as her now boyfriend was released from prison in September. And according, to Stacey, that's exactly why Paris wanted the victim out of her house. But investigators notice something doesn't add up. Her new boyfriend isn't there. And Paris's car is not parked in the driveway either. This is the perfect chance to catch Paris off guard. I can tell you, I know you use this car sometimes. love begin to find each other. A jacket meets a dress. A hoodie slips beneath a blazer. An old cap finds a new scarf. Because you don't simply step into the season. You create it layer by layer until it finally feels like fall. Find fall your way at Ross. Where is your car, then, if you have your own car? I mean, I don't have my car with me right now. Like. Yeah, I understand that's not here. I see how you're now, you're kind of starting to be evasive with us. I mean. Here's the thing. We got to talk to prosecutors. And we got to say, you know, we talked to Paris. She's cooperative. I don't think she's, you know, she's got her kids. She's, you know, she's, she's helping the investigation. We got to say, she's apprehensive to tell us things. You know, I think you're a good person. I think you're, for some reason, you don't want to say certain things. Because it's just like, the last time, like the whole, when I first got my kids taken away from me. We're not, we're not children's services. The thing is, like. We're not, we're, we're not here to judge you, as far as how you're taking care of your children. We're worried about Ed. This kid looks happy. He's got Ed that laid dead in his house for a couple days. And you're not telling us the answers to simple questions. You know where my car is? It's in my driveway. Yeah, your car, you don't even want to tell us where your car is. Raymond's driving it? He's not driving it. How do you know? No, he's not driving it. How do you know that? No, my friend's, my son Mike is driving it. Your son Mike is driving it? Mm-hmm. What's Mike's last name? Lynn. Lynn, that was, how do you know Mike? Um, he, he used to be my neighbor. I haven't known him. Why doesn't, why doesn't Mike drive your car? Because I let him drive my car the next time. You don't have one, I guess? No. How long has he had it? How long has he had your car? Um, I just have my car. I just let him get my car. Oh. Today? Mm-hmm. And then this Mike Lynn guy that has your car, he's just a friend? Is he a guy you're dating or what's going on with him? That's, um, that's the reason I'm dating him. Paris finally breaks. She reveals the name of her boyfriend and the officer's prime suspect, who might have used her car to carry out the vicious murder. With the name on the table, the police have got what they came for and they leave the residence. Although, there is something up there. There's nothing about Paris they couldn't stop considering. She seemed too scared to tell them anything, rather than lying to hide her possible involvement in the murder. Either way, detectives shift their focus to Mikell Green, their prime suspect. Luckily for them, Mikell comes over peacefully, and now detectives have him right in their hands. But there is a problem. There's no hard evidence to tie him to Edward's murder, instead they'll have to pressure him, hoping that Glenn will slip. If he does, they'll slip up and reveal something he doesn't want the police to know. They'll start with some softball questions, and that's where the first problem begins to surface. Alright, so, you are the current boyfriend of Paris Johns. How long have you known Paris? I've known Paris since he was young, in this case. Okay. What kind of relationship do you guys have? Um, it's a good relationship. Cool, pretty good relationship. Do you live with her? No, I don't live with her. Why? Because she's my girlfriend. Why? Why? - Girl, if it was all like that, nothing like that. - Yeah, you're a good looking dude. You got feelings though. You got feelings. - Right. - You've been talking to her for a couple of years in prison. Did you ever go to his house to confront him? - No, I never went to his house before. I don't even know where he lived at. - Why would he be there? - It kind of sounds like you might, and it kind of sounds like you may have. - I really don't know where he lived at. I don't know where he lived at. - Okay, well, we're just getting you an opportunity to explain something. If there's a perfectly good reason why something happened, we're kind of just giving you an opportunity to explain now. - I don't know. - Because we have, we get from you, and we have to, if your story don't make sense, I gotta say to the prosecutor, this is what he's saying, it don't make sense. - It's not me. - You know what I mean? - Sure, I remember what you were telling me before. - Okay. - Unfortunately, this won't work. Glenn can keep denying the allegations as long as the detectives don't present any solid evidence to catch him off guard. However, detectives aren't ready to let the opportunity slip away. After seeing his reaction and defensiveness, they decide to try one last thing. - So once we get all the phone records from, so we do a tower dump, obviously, and that tells me everybody that's been in that area, it'll give me 1,000 phone numbers. And when I hit the search for known numbers, no phone that you have or Paris has or any of our kids have are gonna show up over at Ed's house on Tuesday. - I don't believe so, no sir. - You don't believe so. - I mean, I'm no sir. - You keep saying you don't believe so. - I mean, I don't have my phone or anything like that, 'cause I was with her that day, we was with each other. - So when I do Struthers, I'm gonna see you house to house, trick or treating with Paris and her kids. - Yes. - So when I pull where Ed lived, I'm gonna see you house to house, trick or treating with Paris and her kids. - So when I pull where Ed lived, I'm not gonna see your number, I'm not gonna see Paris's number, I'm not gonna see any of those people's numbers at Ed's house. - No, we was always over each other that day. - All day. - Yes, till I got out of school. - So you realize there's a lot of technology out there, there's cameras everywhere, everywhere. So the more people we talk to, if we find out that Mikel's lying to us, - He's definitely not lying to us. - That he wasn't out to treat you. - I got a reason to lie to y'all. - I got a reason. - But Glenn doesn't crack. Due to the lack of physical evidence, detectives have no other choice but to let him walk free. With only circumstantial evidence in hand, officers can't do anything but watch as their prime suspect leaves the interrogation room. The victim's family won't know justice, yet. In the days following the murder, 53-year-old Edward Lewis was buried in a local cemetery. His injuries were so severe that the funeral had to be held with a closed casket. And the worst is, his killer is still roaming free. Officers have witness statements, conflicting stories, and several people connected to Edward who had reason to be investigated. What they don't have enough of is evidence to charge anyone. So the case remained open. For the next two years, detectives continued to work through witness testimonies to figure out the whole story, but nothing more. But nothing came of it. And their prime suspects were keeping their mouths shut. But without any real, physical evidence, it would be impossible to get the truth out of them. That is, until the detectives found a major breakthrough in their investigation. As they looked at the district map, they noticed cell towers located not too far from Edward's house. Immediately, detectives requested the tower data on the night of the murder and began reconstructing the movements of the phones connected to this case. That is when they found evidence contradicting Glenn's and Paris' stories. Glenn's phone connected to a tower, and it recorded its last location, directly at Edward's house, on the night of his murder, October 31st, 2023. Now detectives have something they could use to confront him. But Glenn isn't the only person they still need answers from. On March 5th, 2025, detectives brought Paris back in. This time, they had more information than they did two years earlier, and they confronted her with what they had uncovered. They hoped or expected a confession, but Paris didn't budge and kept claiming they were never near Edward's house. Still, just like two years ago, she appears shaken and scared of talking. And this time, it's not the detectives' pressure that's making her keep quiet. It appears to be something else. Paris is eventually released. Shortly after, the detectives were preparing their case against Glenn, until two days later, detectives received an unexpected call. It's Paris. She wants to come back. And this time, she says she's ready to tell them everything. - The night on Halloween, or whatever, like I said, I didn't even think he really did it, because I didn't see it. But I heard the shots, whatever. So like I said, we was arguing. Ed was sitting outside. I think he was clearly waiting for my kids to come over. - Okay. - To see them in their costumes or whatever, because Ed played a big part. Not even playing, he was a huge part of all of our lives. - Yeah. - So he was just chilling, like he loved his house. Like, he loved his garage and stuff, so he was chilling out there. And then Mike got out the car and asked him, like, "Can I use your bathroom?" So Ed was like, "You wanna use my bathroom?" He was like, "Yeah." So they went inside or whatever. My baby was in the car, like, I only had my son, Aiden. I had temporary custody of him, 'cause I just want custody 'cause I'm fighting for my kids. So I didn't get out, 'cause like I said, I was tipsy. So, and I was already cussing the mom and stuff. And then I just hear like, maybe like four or five shots, like. So I'm like, but it didn't sound like, I really don't know. I thought it was like maybe fireworks, but when you hear something like that, especially like Ed's house, it's a quiet neighborhood and stuff, like that was supposed to be our crib. But like everything in there, even though it was just a little bit of stuff, like everything was to accommodate me. Like his bed, he even got me a TV. He even got cornstarch that I like to eat and my liquor that I like to drink. He even got a car to accommodate me. So I heard pop, pop, pop. So I sat there for a second and then I got off the car and Mike was coming out or whatever. And he grabbed me by my collar and he put me, like pushed me in the car. So I'm like, as we going up his street or whatever, I'm like, I know you ain't just do some shit like that. So he said some shit like he was trying to scare him or whatever, like, you know, just like some stupid shit or whatever. So I really honestly wasn't thinking anything of it until I tried to call him the next day and the next day. And my kids try to call him because he usually brings my kids over to see me. Or like to take them to school. Like, and always, he was helpful. - Mm-hmm. This is what detectives thought and feared all this time. Mikkel Glenn used Edward's kindness to get inside and kill him in the most brutal way possible by ambushing him from behind. Detectives come to a chilling realization. Had Paris never made that request to drive to his house after she argued with Glenn, Edward might have lived another day. And Paris would never realize what happened to Edward until one of her friends told her the whole truth. - And then I didn't realize that it was dead until that day that John talked to me. Because I say, like, maybe the day before or that day, a friend of mine that I was helping move out of her house, and I really don't want her to get caught up in anything 'cause she don't know anybody, like, people, like, that snitchy shit just goes way deep and far. - Yeah. - So, but I guess he said to her, like, he killed Ed. So she said to me, like, 'cause like I said, I would be-- - So Mikkel told somebody else that he killed Ed? - Mm-hmm. - Like, right after it happened? - Yeah, like, he told a friend of mine that was our best friend. So when she came to me, it was like, he said that he killed Ed or whatever. So I was like, what the fuck? So then I wrote past, "Is John dead?" I was like, "No, he's not dead. "He's at his job. "I seen he wasn't there. "Ed is a hard worker. "He goes to work. "He's not missing a beat." So I was like, "Oh my God." So then I probably, I dropped Mike off at my house, and then I had my daughter with me on some shit. Like, I was trying to make it like an excuse, like, "Oh, I gotta take her to her." So, and I really don't want children's services getting caught up in any of this shit, like, for real. So I realized that he was dead when I went to his house, and I seen somebody outside with, like, a metal detector thing. - Mm-hmm. - And then my godbrother had caught me because my godbrother was staying with me for literally a brief second, and he told me that detectives came to my house. So I'm like. And then y'all confirmed it, that he was dead. That's how I do it, for sure, for sure. But already, like, when I seen the metal, the people with the metal detectors, and he went past his job, I was already like, my heart sunk. And I was shaking and stuff, so I was shaking all the time. whole way home now paris's testimony could be enough to put mikhail green behind bars for good but detectives want to make the case as solid as possible they need one more thing from her if paris was really on the scene that night she may know what happened to glenn's gun the very weapon detectives believe was used to murder edward finding it could turn their case from a strong accusation into an open and shut case did you see a gun on him well the thing is it's like i didn't see the like literally the gun but like i know what gun he had because i know he bought it like did you see him with it that day no no like i don't really remember like because he honestly the type of dude that he is he's gonna always carry it okay uh it was just like it was like him putting his underwear on right so you've seen him a lot in the past leading up to that with a gun because and i'm gonna be honest like he just went to jail yeah and i gave the police a gun that he sat there and bought off the street like he stole my money like that's why i called the police because we was arguing about that because you stole my money to buy a burger yeah i see you got arrested like september last year for domestic and i think he had a pistol any idea what he did with the gun he sold it to somebody sold it to somebody here in the city struthers but they probably got rid of it yeah any idea how soon after he got rid of it he had to immediately after like probably a couple of days okay text messages asked if he's going to be able to buy it this certainly complicates the case without the gun it will be harder to prove glenn's guilt still there's one question detectives can't get out of their heads after all two years have passed since the murder paris was given multiple opportunities to tell them what she knew but each time she stayed quiet until detectives finally confronted her with solid proof of his involvement two days earlier but this is something they're not going to ask her now instead they have a different plan in mind a plan right on the detectives desks that will get mikhail off the streets even without a murder weapon fall never arrives all at once first the air then the light and slowly the things you love begin to find each other a jacket meets a dress a hoodie slips beneath a blazer an old cap finds a new scarf because you don't simply step into the season you're going to have to find a new scarf and you're going to have to find a new one because you don't simply step into the season you create it layer by layer until it finally feels like fall find fall your way at ross so what we what what i what my next steps will be now is um i'm gonna have some paperwork to do i'm gonna have some things to do and then i will take this to our prosecutor but you have to understand that at some point down the road you're probably gonna have to go and front of the prosecutor and the grand jury and tell your story how you tell them as long as i'm a cool like i don't want to so but that's what's going to put him in jail and that's what's going to keep him in jail within a week mikhail glenn is secretly indicted by a grand jury for the murder of edward lewis a day after the decision mikhail glenn is tracked down arrested and delivered right back to the mahoning county jail where detectives are already waiting for him with their final proof of his crime they'll give him a chance to express remorse but little do they know glenn isn't going down without a fight you remember me yeah i think so i'm detective anderson uh did they tell you why you're here it's just something for murdering i could make a burger or something like that yes the girl is lying on me man she didn't he's just saying that she was just calling my phone who the girl paris all right well um but she's lying on me though why was she even because i don't want to be right no more that's why she's making this up so ain't nobody making nothing up she definitely is hold on ain't nobody making nothing up because i got a lot of evidence what evidence a lot of evidence i don't have to tell you what my evidence is all you need to know is you've been arrested for the murder of edward lewis who is that you know exactly who i don't know who that even is sir so we interviewed you before remember yeah i remember yeah and then at that point you told me you knew exactly who edward lewis was living next to my oh my ex-girlfriend the girl right here paris making it up for her okay so here's what we're gonna do i'm gonna read you your rights and then we'll go from there okay if glenn's involvement isn't already clear enough he's making things more obvious than ever just like during his first interview it takes mere seconds for him to slip up and once the detectives begin laying out their evidence glenn is going to make things even worse for himself and play on the detective's nerves do you know what you know what a cell phone is right yeah you have a cell phone so on halloween did you have your cell phone with you that entire time i believe i probably did i'm quite sure i did okay so you're telling me you had your cell phone with you that entire time do you know what cell phones do other than make phone calls so when you have your cell phone with you that cell phone is constantly communicating with the towers regardless if you're making phone calls playing on internet googling tick-tocking doesn't matter that cell phone is constantly communicating with the tower so where do you think your cell phone because i wrote a search warrant for your cell phone and i have all that data i also have where is it the data where's the uh the stuff you put out all the stuff out like no i don't have to have anything how don't you so this is a whole investigation okay i will show you one piece of stuff that i have right here i will show you something i have right here so this is a map of the west side this is data from your cell phone this is data from your cell phone from t-mobile your provider i'm not even with you i've never been with t-mobile guess when you were with t-mobile i never was with t-mobile guess when you were with t-mobile i've never had t-mobile in 2023 you've never had absolutely customer forever guess who boost is true it's not t-mobile it is t-mobile no it's not so regardless your phone number but what phone number your phone let's see i believe the last three is six oh one four or something like that okay did you just stop right now it's your no it's your phone it's your number so guess what you see that little dot right there you see that line that is your phone see that right there that's ed's house at this point most suspects would instantly give up under this kind of pressure but not glenn instead he's about to pull out one of the most believable defense tactics these detectives have no chance of defeating but how that made no sense man it absolutely makes sense i've never been in a house before sir okay there i've never been there you're lying i'm not lying you wanted me to show you i just showed you i've never been to this house before so guess what no it made no sense your phone puts you at that's house all right so how come a long time ago i got a damn big coming restaurant how am i being because i didn't have this information that's what i'm saying that's what i'm saying she's definitely she's lying on me i don't know she's definitely why do you think why do you think it's paris telling me this because i know it's paris because she just called me so guess what if you tell me the other day she just come down and talk to you guess what what do you mean i know it's fair there's more people that you told us i don't know there's more people you told about this murder so you're you're going to jail for the murder how am i going to jump for a bird i haven't even seen her that's what my word is you were indicted yesterday by the mahoning county grand jury because yesterday is when i presented it to the grand jury the murder with all the evidence i have i understand that i have the evidence i haven't even did anything sir it wasn't it wasn't even me you did the girl is lying you didn't do it i did not do it so now is your time to tell me why i didn't even do it it wasn't even me the detective's patience is running thin in front of him is a stubborn suspect who refuses to admit guilt despite repeatedly slipping up and having concrete evidence pointing straight at him still the detective will attempt to get a confession out of him and deliver one of the most satisfying beatdowns in the entire case you are absolutely i took out a new ad from my ex-girlfriend ann campbell i used to be right next door to ed i mean the girl we broke up i went away to prison that was it and you came home from prison you found out that ed was enjoying paris's company how did that happen - Yeah, son, no, I'm not a freak. I'm not no jealous type of dude. I never been no jealous type of dude. I don't care about no girl messing with me. - You're killing me, you killed a guy. - I didn't ever kill this guy. - You killed a guy because he was friends with Paris. - I don't care about her having friends. - And friends with her daughters. - I don't care about none of that. - You clearly did. - How can you even say that I did? That doesn't make no sense, man. - I have an entire folder full of evidence. - So what's the, show me all the evidence that you have. Show me all the evidence. - I already showed you. - Your daughter also flew on the west side. - If that you want to ask. - No, we did not. - So you went to Ed's, you took Ed in the house. - You see, that's a good question. - And you killed him. - Trying to talk over me and stuff like that. No, I didn't do that. - What did I do that for? - Your story. - I don't need to fucking kill Ed, though, sir. - It's complete BS. Complete BS. - How is it BS? - Well, I'll tell you what. Everybody loved Ed. Everybody cared about Ed. - It was cool, I didn't have a problem with Ed. - Ed, when this goes to court and they portray Ed in the light that he was, you're going to look like-- - It was cool, I didn't-- - Stone cold killer. - I ain't got a problem with Ed. I ain't never had a problem with Ed. - You are going to look like a stone cold killer to the jury, and they are going to show you no mercy. Now is your time to say, yeah, me and Ed went in the house. We got in a love argument. - No, see, now is your chance to make it look like you have a soul. - I never been to Ed's house before, sir. - Well, you clearly can't say that. - Yes, I can. - I never been to Ed's house before. - For another five minutes, Glen keeps repeating the same story. Until the detective realizes he's never going to confess, there's only one thing left to do, tell Glen how badly he screwed up. - Bullet shells and the gun. - I know where the gun is. - That don't make no sense. - So where's the gun? - So that wasn't me, so that don't make no sense. - We'll get you over to the county jail. Thank you. - I never did nothing. That don't make no sense. Not even gonna stop talking to me now, though. That don't make no sense, man. Not even gonna stop talking, though. Come on, man. - But the sentencing of Mikel Glen wasn't as smooth as police wanted it to be. After the interview, Paris Jones disappeared for roughly nine months, causing prosecutors to nearly drop the case. Then on November 17th, the day Glen was originally scheduled to go on trial, she resurfaced. A judge ordered her held as a material witness. Jones testified that Glen killed Edward, saying that she feared what he might do to her and her children if she spoke up, confirming what she had already told detectives. Leanna Wolfe, a sister of Lewis, said that her brother was mentally challenged, but that he was a kind-hearted person who would never harm or threaten anyone. At last, jurors looked at photos of Lewis's body. After seeing its condition, one juror told the judge that he felt uneasy. His face went pale, only confirming the brutality of the senseless murder. Glen chose not to address the court. On December 5th, 2025, Mikel Glen was sentenced to 29 to 34 and a half years in prison for murder and aggravated burglary. It is the maximum sentence Glen can receive. At the end of the session, the judge said he would give Glen more time, but he was not able to do so. He was forced to leave the court.
