The Buried Car at Don Studey's Green Hollow Nobody Will Search

Over a hundred hours of phone calls. Sixteen months of investigation. Boots on the ground in Green Hollow. And one question that still doesn't have a clean answer — is Lucy Studey-McKiddy telling the truth about the alleged Green Hollow Killer? Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta approached the Don Studey case the way he approaches every case — looking for the lie. 

He probed Lucy's stories for red flags. He looked for inconsistencies. He pushed for details that didn't match. What he found was a woman whose accounts were repetitive but locked in — always the same stories told the same way with the same details. 

Meanwhile, Lucy's sister Susan was drunk-texting Bob during his time in Green Hollow insisting their father wasn't a killer. Two daughters. Opposite stories. No clean resolution. Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Drake brings a behavioral lens — Lucy clearly experienced trauma, and the fact that her outcry started in childhood gives it significant weight. 

But trauma can also produce exaggerated or distorted memories. Robin notes that serial killers statistically almost never involve family members, making Lucy's account of helping dispose of bodies an outlier. And there's a data gap that can't be ignored — nobody has come forward as the family of a missing person connected to Don Studey, and searches of missing persons databases haven't produced matches. Lucy arrived at her estimate of fifty victims by calculating roughly two a year over twenty-five years. 

The number may be lower. The truth may be somewhere between what Lucy says and what Susan denies. Part three of the conversation.
