What I did is I took my chair, I put it right close to his so our knees were almost touching

and when they brought him in the room you could see the fire in his eyes, their eyes of anger.

I don't know what set him off but he screamed at me. You want it? You've

and want it? Get your tapered cord all.

It was early October 1993 and in Michigan that meant bow hunting season.

33 year old Charles Murray was an avid hunter. A rifle had been a weapon of choice up to that point

but that year he decided to venture into bow hunting. Excited to try out his new bow and this new sport,

Charles left his home in Pontiac which is just outside of Detroit. He headed up to the northern

part of the state for the very first day of bow hunting season. A few days went by and Charles

didn't come home. Then a few more days. Then a week. Until finally, Charles mother Sandy

decided something must be wrong so she filed a missing person's report, got in her car,

and headed north in search of her son. The hunt for the hunter was on. From A&E,

year that had been his first time.
