Transcript

00:00I'm on a vacation with a friend.

00:20I went from Calgary to Curacao to do this diving trip.

00:26The site that we agreed on was the best.

00:29And we kept going back there was Port-au-Marie.

00:33Port-au-Marie, it was kind of set up for locals.

00:37You have to know where this is and you have to want to go there.

00:43If you saw more than half a dozen people, you'd be lucky.

00:55The reef is great.

00:57The water's warm.

00:59It's got good visibility.

01:01There's lots of sea life in it.

01:07We had just come out of the water.

01:10We were washing our equipment in the wash area.

01:14I look down the beach and I see three people walking towards us.

01:18There's one guy, there's a girl in the middle, and then there's another person who looked like he was from the island.

01:26As they came closer to me, she comes right up to me, she was in good shape, she was tan, she was a smoker.

01:36And she's just about to say something to me when the person who was on the inside comes up.

01:52I'm looking right at him, he stared at me, doesn't say a word, and motions her away.

02:00If he had not stared at me, I would have forgotten everything, but I can't.

02:09I think about this every day, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't.

02:16And I think if I had ten seconds more, what would I have done?

02:21About two and a half weeks after Amy's disappearance, we decided to go back down to Curacao to have a press conference.

02:44The purpose of this press conference is to not only let people know what happened and how we feel, but it's to try to find Amy, to get our plea out.

03:00We asked the captain of the ship to please notify the passengers that she was missing, and he said that he could not do that because it would disturb the passengers.

03:12We went back to Curacao because I felt like I had to do something.

03:17Who was the member of the family that last saw Amy alive?

03:24It was me.

03:26You?

03:28You know, it's very difficult to talk about the last time I saw her.

03:34You don't believe that she fell overboard?

03:37Absolutely not.

03:38What clothing she had on?

03:42She had on a white top.

03:44Silver wax and silver earrings.

03:46Was she intoxicated?

03:48She had been drinking.

03:50Everyone on the ship had been drinking.

03:52We checked the bar tab, and she had had seven light beers from starting at about 6 p.m.

03:59I tried to hold back my feelings.

04:04Why?

04:07I don't know.

04:08I guess just, even though she's 23 years old, you still try to protect her, and sometimes I think I didn't do enough.

04:19I stayed back, manned the phones because I didn't think I could go to Curacao and not come home with her a second time.

04:32I don't remember eating, I don't remember showering, I don't remember sleeping.

04:39I was hoping and praying someone would call with information.

04:47The reward has been raised to $260,000.

04:52It's been raised, and we're still trying to get more and more money from associates and friends and family.

04:58If someone has her, please let her go.

05:02Leave her somewhere in the middle of the night blindfolded.

05:05We won't ask any questions.

05:08You can remain anonymous.

05:11We just need her back.

05:13After the press conference was over, we were out standing in a lobby area outside, hanging flyers, talking to officials, newspaper people.

05:25And we saw this gentleman come up to us.

05:29He introduced himself.

05:31His name was Deshi, and he was a taxi driver.

05:35And he had one of Amy's flyers in his hand.

05:38And he said, are you the father of the girl that's missing?

05:43And I said, yes, I am.

05:44And he pulled me to the side, and he said, I want you to know that your daughter did not fall from the ship.

05:52Your daughter did not jump from the ship.

05:55Your daughter was not thrown from the ship.

05:58She's on this island, and I hope you can find her.

06:00My heart started beating, and he said she approached my taxi.

06:09She seemed like she was a little frantic.

06:11He said, I never will forget her green eyes.

06:13And he said she was wearing a white top with jeans, which is what she had on underneath that yellow shirt, and the jeans that were missing.

06:24She says, I need to use a phone.

06:27And he said, I pointed in the direction of the phones, and he said, Amy went the other way.

06:38It was the first indication that she's alive.

06:43And she's out there.

06:46He said, you need to go to a place called Coral Cliffs, which is a resort.

06:51You need to go to a place called Kadushi Cliffs.

06:55And he said, when you go to these places, he said, you want to look around.

06:59You don't want to talk to anybody.

07:01Just look, observe.

07:05We met a fellow named John Mentor with the Harbor Police.

07:09It was April of 1998.

07:11The family came down to see if you could see anything.

07:14Taxol driver was positive that he had seen Amy Bradley and that she had gotten off the ship.

07:20You know, it struck me.

07:22It struck me.

07:24They were not that familiar with the island, so I went with them.

07:27He said it was dangerous, and he needed to be with us.

07:34They cannot be there by themselves.

07:35Locals will attack them or mess them up.

07:38As a policeman, it won't be a problem, but by themselves, no.

07:42We were told in these places that they were owned and controlled by different mafia groups.

07:53A couple of them had open water access, you know, that obviously you could come and go from

07:59and not be checked by authorities and that kind of thing.

08:03Some of those areas we were looking, there were makeshift kind of landing strips.

08:07It could have been drug trafficking trade or maybe even sex trade.

08:13Curacao is a very lovely island, but the crime we have here is drug-related

08:17because we are not too far from Venezuela, and we also have some prostitution on the island

08:22and sometimes sex trafficking.

08:26She could have been lured off the ship.

08:28Someone might be able to sweet-talk her.

08:30We went down one particular road, and we came upon it like a junkyard kind of thing.

08:44Old cars, old shacks.

08:48And there was one shack that we went in, and one thing that stood out to me was

08:55there was a container of Tic-Tacs that were laid up on the bed.

09:01And my first thought is, I wonder if Amy was here, because Amy loved Tic-Tacs.

09:07And this is where they maybe brought her.

09:10You know, somebody got her off the ship, and they brought her here.

09:14So that was what my mental state was.

09:16And I remember driving through these thorn or briar patches were basically on this little

09:26five-foot-wide dirt path with thorns two, three inches long, scraping down both sides of the

09:33vehicles at 1 o'clock in the morning, and I distinctly hear what was obvious to me was Amy's voice say,

09:42Brad!

09:44In what seemed like a vehicle that was passing us.

09:47And I freaked out.

09:50I mean, I spun around and, like, asked everybody if they hear that, and, you know, they did.

09:55And so we whipped around.

09:59Followed them all up into the hills and these backstreet neighborhoods, fully expecting we're

10:04going to pull the guy over and she's going to be in the car.

10:07And then the car pulled over.

10:14Then ended up just an old dude by himself.

10:18Brad, Brad, Brad.

10:20Say goodbye, Brad.

10:21I know what it sounds like when Amy calls me, and it was very distinct.

10:26Here comes a car.

10:28I've never been so sure of anything in my life that that's what I heard and what that was.

10:34What, Brad?

10:35Amy.

10:37We didn't find her anywhere.

10:41But with this, I know that she's still out there somewhere.

10:46We have the taxi driver coming forward saying that they saw her.

10:51It really changes everything.

10:54We have to try our best to find any other individuals that might have seen her.

10:59To try to get the public or anybody to report information.

11:03Our next case involves a mystery on a cruise ship.

11:15A mystery of a passenger who vanished.

11:18We contacted America's Most Wanted.

11:21She's our life.

11:22She's our heart.

11:23She's one of us.

11:24We wanted to get Amy's face out there.

11:27She may have reappeared hundreds of miles away.

11:33Off to a tropical paradise for some R&R.

11:37That's what the Bradley family was after.

11:39America's Most Wanted was on.

11:41The focus was a missing girl from a cruise ship line.

11:45And missing on the island of Curso.

11:47Amy Bradley has a tattoo of the Tasmanian devil.

11:51With a basketball on her left shoulder blade.

11:55There's a picture of the Bradleys standing on a gangway or something.

11:58The minute I saw the picture, I went like, are you kidding me?

12:04That girl was the girl on the beach in Curso.

12:08It was.

12:12The tattoos and the piercings.

12:14They were the same.

12:16I'm 100% sure.

12:17Not 99% sure.

12:19100% sure.

12:20I spoke to the FBI.

12:24I recounted in detail my story of my sighting.

12:28And the people that were with her at the time.

12:32Now, one of the two men stared at me.

12:35And he's a big guy.

12:37He's got a very distinctive face to me.

12:41I see that same face on America's Most Wanted.

12:43Amy was with two men.

12:52And the one that I could identify was Alistair Douglas.

12:58We have a witness saying that they saw Amy on the beach with some individuals.

13:04This witness identified one of them as Alistair Douglas.

13:08The band leader from the cruise.

13:10And you also have the taxi driver saying that he saw Amy and spoke to Amy.

13:16And we can't confirm these sightings.

13:18But we have to ask.

13:19If Amy was still alive and on Curacao, did she walk off the ship?

13:26Or was she smuggled off the ship?

13:28If Amy was abducted or taken off the ship, they'd have had their hands full.

13:35I mean, she is a fighter.

13:37Amy was strong, super athletic.

13:43If somebody took her off the boat, Amy put up a fight.

13:47Yes!

13:48Two big players in the trash pile.

13:50Certainly, I feel like she could hold her own.

13:53You know, she was a star basketball player.

13:56Amy was the first female to ever get a full college scholarship to Longwood.

14:00She was very mentally and physically strong.

14:04But, although Amy was strong, Amy was not large.

14:09I mean, they could have put her in something.

14:12And, you know, disguised it as luggage and taken her off the ship.

14:19Amy was pretty tiny.

14:21And I, you know, she drank.

14:24She liked to party.

14:25I mean, she could throw down.

14:28She could, she could handle alcohol.

14:31We're, we're thinking, did she meet the wrong person?

14:33Did someone buy her a drink?

14:36I mean, I don't know.

14:37Could that have happened?

14:38I think she was so much more complicated and textured and layered than people really can even understand.

14:48Amy always knew who she was.

14:50I'm gonna get a call on my 16th birthday.

14:53By a college, she was ready to share it with everybody.

15:02The best memory I have of Amy was probably when she came out to me.

15:08And she said, I'm gay.

15:09And I said, well, what about me?

15:13And she said, I'm not your, you're not my type, Sarah.

15:15I mean, that still makes me laugh because, you know, I was 17, 18 years old.

15:20Well, why the hell am I not your type?

15:22What's wrong with me?

15:24At Longwood, a feeling between the two of us just started to evolve.

15:28And she kissed me one night.

15:30And that was my clue.

15:33Junior year, we were suite mates.

15:40We sat on the bathroom floor.

15:42And she said, can you help me tell my parents?

15:45Can you come with me?

15:46I remember the drive home with her.

15:51That scared her.

15:54Because she never wanted to disappoint her parents.

15:57I've never seen anybody as close to their family as Amy was.

16:03The Bradleys, they're a very special family.

16:06They love hard.

16:07I don't think they missed a single sporting event or activity that they ever did, ever.

16:20She did tell her parents about us specifically, and they were not happy.

16:28They were surprised and disappointed.

16:35Her dad wrote a letter to me that was very clear on how he felt.

16:40It was a, you know, a three-page letter outlining in all the ways in which he was disappointed.

16:46It's, it's Amy's life.

16:51It wasn't, it wasn't what we would choose for her.

16:55But it's her life, and we love to run conditionally.

16:58And I remember putting that in the letter.

17:02It just put a lot of stress and strain on us.

17:06I think we all drink a lot in college.

17:08But I think Amy used it as a tool to kind of numb some of those big feelings.

17:18And I think she carried a heaviness that not all of us carried.

17:26I do think that it weighed heavy on her, that her parents were still processing it and didn't quite understand it.

17:32As parents, we were concerned that in 1995, those feelings would not be welcomed by the general population.

17:44It was the 90s, for crying out loud.

17:47That was taboo.

17:50You know, it's difficult for a parent to say, I have a child that's gay.

17:55But they loved her regardless.

18:02The Bradley family, right from the beginning, was very honest.

18:08And they spoke to investigators about her relationships and, you know, the challenges that she had.

18:17When we went to the cabin to take a look, search it and all that,

18:22then we see shoes and a small table pushed up against the balcony and so forth.

18:26We have to look at the potentiality of suicide.

18:30We did, you know, many interviews with, you know, numerous friends and family.

18:35And also, you know, outside that immediate bubble,

18:39just to have a better understanding of Amy's state of mind, the headspace of the victim.

18:44I do believe that we should be looking at every possibility.

18:52The notion of suicide, I thought that.

18:55But I also thought, man, that Amy loved to be, to not want to not be here.

19:04I do not believe that Amy committed suicide.

19:13There's no room for me to believe that.

19:17And by the time they went on the trip, she was excited about life.

19:21She had just gotten a new job.

19:25She had gotten this new bulldog, got an adorable apartment that we were all so excited about

19:30because Amy was going to have this space that we could all hang out the second day.

19:34They called home from the cruise and they were having a blast.

19:37And she sounded so upbeat and she and Brad had gone shopping,

19:44saying, I'll see you when I get back home.

19:45Can't wait to tell you all about my trip.

19:47I got you this gift.

19:49I mean, to me, that's not somebody who was wanting to commit suicide.

19:56Amy was very confident, you know, very happy individual.

20:00She definitely felt like her life was moving forward.

20:04I do believe in my, you know, in my being that I don't believe she committed suicide.

20:09But, you know, the door is still open on any of these possibilities, any of these scenarios.

20:13If you didn't have any of these sightings, would you be thinking something different?

20:16Possibly.

20:24My name is Bill Hefner.

20:25I live in Fowl, Nevada.

20:26I was in the Navy 20 years.

20:30I was on the USS Chandler.

20:38My ship pulled into Curacao.

20:41I think we were just there for an overnight.

20:43When I went out that night, I was a long ways from the harbor.

20:48And I stopped in a bar I wasn't supposed to be in.

20:52I saw the hotel above and it looked like a bar on the bottom.

20:55So I stopped in there and there's a guy with a stub nose .38 in his belt and says, what are you going?

21:02I said, I thought I'd go in and have a beer.

21:03And he said, oh, okay.

21:05So I went in there and four people come down the stairs, two guys, two girls, and I see the two guys got guns.

21:14So I sat down with the two girls and the guys went over to the bar.

21:20It was a white girl and a Hispanic girl.

21:22White girl was petite, dark hair, some tattoos on her.

21:28And then one of the girls got up, went over to the bar, and I should have just turned around right then and left.

21:37Because that's when the other girl, she said, hey, they're holding me against my will.

21:42I need help.

21:44She says, I owe them $200 and I can't, I can't get my freedom.

21:48This was my 18th year in the Navy.

21:51I've heard all kinds of stories from working girls.

21:55Singapore, Thailand, I've heard it before, you know.

22:00And that's when she said, with a southern accent, my name is Amy Bradley.

22:05She pronounced it Brantley, not too southern, but southern accent.

22:14And then she told me, she got off that ship and she left on her own because she was going to score drugs.

22:22She said, me and my brother are partying and I want a shorty to go get drugs and now I'm stuck here with these guys.

22:30She was trying to keep it on the down low that she told me anything.

22:33She didn't want the guys or the other girl to know that she told me.

22:37So when the other girl came back, she shut up again.

22:42I didn't know what it was.

22:45I just kind of took it with a pinch of salt and I left, you know.

22:48I knew there was a guy out front with a gun.

22:51I didn't want to try and cause no trouble.

22:55It wasn't until like 2001.

23:00It was three or four years before I even got reminded of it and said, whoa, you know.

23:07I saw the picture and connected the dots.

23:09There was a lead that came in from a Navy serviceman, but it had come in years later after he had been on the island.

23:19He never reported it originally because he was obviously in the military and that was, you know, frowned upon.

23:25Agents back then tried to confirm that or tried to at least see if the brothel, you know, had any kind of connection.

23:32But the information, you know, you're talking years and years later and it's not something that could be corroborated and could be confirmed.

23:39But it does make you wonder, could trafficking have occurred?

23:45I didn't report it because I didn't want to get busted, restricted to the ship.

23:50I didn't want to know that I went to the illegal bar.

23:54I was two years away from retirement.

23:58If I would have got busted down, I would have been, you know, retired lower rank.

24:03So, I didn't want to do that.

24:08How sure are you that the person you saw was Amy LaBroning?

24:13She said she was.

24:16And she looked like the picture I saw.

24:19So, yeah.

24:20The FBI put me in for an interview, a lie detector test.

24:30They asked if I could identify the guys from pictures.

24:33The picture that they showed me, I think, was yellow.

24:37And they said, is that the guy that was at the bar?

24:40And I couldn't be sure, so.

24:44And why should people believe you?

24:46You don't, you don't have to believe me, but the FBI did.

24:49And they did a lie detector test on me.

24:52So, yeah, I had nothing to gain.

24:56I came forward because it's the right thing to do.

24:59You know, so.

25:02Nothing more than that.

25:06Amy and I, I mean, we were together the whole cruise.

25:09I don't know what she could have gotten into to, you know, be in this type of situation

25:14where she's owing people money for drugs.

25:16That's just Miller Lite and Marlboro Lite.

25:19That was kind of her M.O.

25:22To get off of a boat to score a drug deal, none of that made any sense to me.

25:29But on the other hand, you've got yourself a really legitimate witness.

25:36Everything lines up.

25:37So, if she was being used in a brothel situation, we thought, well, how did she get there?

25:47What happened?

25:48How did it happen?

25:50We're thinking about the cruise over and over and over.

25:54Did we miss anything?

25:56And, you know, when we go back and take a look at the different things that happened prior to her disappearance,

26:03it's like, whoa, what about this?

26:06Or what about that?

26:07The thing that sticks out the most, I think, to me, anyway, is the attention that the waitstaff seemed to pay to Amy.

26:17But then, at some point, the waiter walked right up to us and looks at me and says, where's Amy?

26:25We want to take her to Carlos and Charlie's.

26:29At the time, at the time, all I knew it was a bar that was on Aruba.

26:33When I told Amy, she went, we're not getting off the boat.

26:36No way.

26:37Later, I did notice a man a couple decks up that I caught eye contact with a couple times.

26:44I couldn't figure out what this fellow was looking at.

26:48I'm wondering if he's looking at Amy or looking at us.

26:51At one point, I just kind of did this.

26:54Can I help you?

26:55And then I looked down to get my things, and when I looked up, he was gone.

27:01After dinner, I told Amy, I said, hey, let's go get our pictures.

27:06So we go into the gallery, and there's pictures hanging on the boards for passengers to purchase from the gallery guy.

27:15He recognized her immediately and said, oh, you're over here.

27:20So he went over and looked, and he took some out and looked behind him and looked again.

27:25Then he looked into a box, and he said, well, I put them there.

27:29Would anybody from your group have come in here and purchased those pictures?

27:34I said, no.

27:38I didn't think much of it, except I said to him, can you redo those pictures?

27:43And he goes, well, sure.

27:48Who was looking at Amy?

27:51Why did they try to get her off the boat?

27:54Why are Amy's photos missing?

27:59Somebody saw her and wanted her and took her.

28:04I took over the case in 2001, and talking to the Bradleys, you could hear the pain in their voices and their desperation to try to get some answers.

28:18People will do anything for their kids, right?

28:20They'll do anything for their daughter.

28:21So they were doing everything they could to try to solve the mystery.

28:27We checked embassies, hospitals, prisons.

28:30We talked to anybody that would talk to us about what was going on in that region of the world.

28:37And we had a hotline, we started calling the news, and we told the story hundreds of times.

28:46Joining us are Amy's parents, Iva and Ron Bradley.

28:48Iva and Ron Bradley.

28:50Iva and Ron Bradley.

28:51Her parents have never given up the search.

28:53I remember the phones ringing all times of the night.

28:57You know, people calling from different places.

28:59There's no way that I could ever explain what it would feel like to not bring one of your children home.

29:08It's reliving it every time we tell it.

29:13The year.

29:13Amy's very responsible.

29:15She's very conscientious.

29:17After year.

29:18If she was going to leave for more than 10 or 15 minutes, she would have absolutely left us a note.

29:22After year.

29:23Go to bed every night thinking about her.

29:25She's never off our mind.

29:27Any time the computer would ding, we'd all run to the computer to check what the email was.

29:35Some of them were about torture.

29:40Amy's feet were cut with razor blades so she couldn't escape.

29:44Amy's being tied to a tree.

29:47Your daughter's been hitting the head with a hatchet, and she's buried in a shallow grave in Venezuela, and here are the coordinates.

29:55And so what you do at that moment is you take a deep breath, and you check it out, and you're able to determine there are no such coordinates.

30:04It was frustrating.

30:13And then one day we get an email.

30:15In 2005, there was a series of photos that the family received, allegedly from a website.

30:31Where people would meet for free sex or to engage with prostitutes.

30:39When I got the case, I was recently assigned to the San Juan division, and I was responsible for, from Puerto Rico all through the West Indies, down to Trinidad and Tobago.

30:49It's a hotbed for human trafficking.

30:52There's lots of people going through that area and lots of money going out to places it shouldn't go.

31:00Seeing the photos, that's a terrible thing.

31:04It's a panic.

31:13It's a level of panic.

31:16All I could keep thinking is, is that my daughter?

31:20It's a pretty unsettling set of images.

31:23Just sickening.

31:24I mean, it's certainly not somewhere Amy would want any part of.

31:31We don't know what Amy looks like at this point.

31:36You know, seven years can change a person's appearance.

31:41We all looked at it.

31:43The nose, the chin, and the hair.

31:48It took my breath away.

31:50I thought, that could be Amy.

31:58It's a huge, tangible lead.

32:01Our job is to figure out where it came from, where it was taken.

32:04The photograph itself has been on a particular website that dealt with prostitution down in the Caribbean and in Venezuela area.

32:14The individuals in the photographs are of women in their risque attire.

32:19The FBI had a forensic analysis done of this photo.

32:27We have several photos, of course, of Amy, where we have her side profile, where she's looking straight on.

32:34We did measurements with the ear.

32:36We did measurements with, you know, the chin.

32:45We looked at the shoulder, the arm.

32:49A forensic analyst looked at the photo.

32:57And believed that it was Amy Bradley.

32:59It is like a stab in the heart.

33:13I've never thought that she wasn't out there.

33:15Neither has her dad.

33:17Neither has her brother.

33:20We've got to get to her.

33:22Woo!

33:22Hey, Jackie!

33:23Amy Bradley disappeared seven years ago.

33:31Now, Iva and Ron were forwarded a picture via email by someone who wants to remain anonymous.

33:38I want to show you this picture of who may very well be Amy Bradley seven years after her disappearance.

33:46Why don't we go through the features that the experts have picked out?

33:52What they do is they measure things that don't change in time.

33:56And you can see the cheekbones here that have some similarity.

34:00Now, look at her chin and even her hair widow's peak, which doesn't change.

34:05And if you look at it, it is dramatically similar.

34:08We know that Amy has four distinctive tattoos.

34:11Now, the picture, she was positioned in such a way as to cover every one of those areas.

34:19We want to look at...

34:20I have to work one day.

34:21I was just watching the Dr. Phil show.

34:27And I'm watching it, and a couple comes on.

34:31And they show this picture of this girl that went missing in the Caribbean.

34:37And I couldn't believe it.

34:38Couldn't believe it.

34:39I said, that's the girl I saw in Barbados.

34:42I saw her.

34:44I saw her.

34:45My husband and I, we were on a cruise.

34:53One of the stops was Bridgetown, Barbados.

34:58I wanted to get some souvenirs for my family.

35:02So we went to this store.

35:04It was downtown.

35:07And we were looking around, and I said, oh, there's really nothing here I want to buy.

35:10He goes, well, it's hot.

35:12Let's go back to the ship and eat.

35:13And I said, okay.

35:14But I need to use the restroom first.

35:21So I went in there.

35:23And I wasn't in there maybe three or four minutes.

35:26And all of a sudden, I heard people coming in.

35:30They were talking.

35:32And I thought, men are in this restroom.

35:35There was a man over by the door talking.

35:39I can't remember everything he said.

35:41But I heard him say, the deal's at 11 o'clock.

35:44And I'm warning you, you better be ready to go.

35:50I didn't know what actually it was.

35:53Maybe a drug deal.

35:54I didn't know what was going on.

35:57And then all of a sudden, the men left.

36:00And I opened the door, and there's this young woman standing by the sinks.

36:06She had real long, dark hair.

36:08And it was kind of wild and crazy.

36:12Had a skirt on, a straight skirt, and a sleeveless top.

36:17She had this awful look on her face, kind of crying.

36:20I walked over to the sink to wash my hands.

36:27And I said, hi.

36:30Are you on vacation here?

36:32And she just shook her head, no.

36:34Do you live here?

36:35She shook her head, no.

36:37Wouldn't talk.

36:40And then I says, well, what's your name?

36:44She said, Amy.

36:45I could tell she had a Southern American accent.

36:50So I said to her, well, where are you from?

36:54She was talking so low.

36:56I thought she said West Virginia.

36:58I went, oh.

37:02I thought I was cheering her up.

37:04I'm from near where you're from, and I have a daughter named Amy, and she's just about your age.

37:11And when I said that, she starts walking towards me, getting up in my face, and she backs me into a wall.

37:21And I just froze.

37:22So I'm talking a little fast.

37:23I'm going, oh, it's so nice meeting you.

37:26I hope you have a good time, whatever you're doing.

37:29And she watches me.

37:31She never moves.

37:32It's like she's frozen.

37:33Her back is to the door.

37:34So I open the door, and here's this man standing in the door, blocking my exit.

37:40So I play dumb tourist.

37:42I go, excuse me.

37:44I'm sorry.

37:45I got to get out.

37:46Excuse me, like that.

37:47And I just kept inching.

37:50Her back was to the door the whole time I'm leaving.

37:56And I get up to my husband, and he says, gosh, you were in there a long time.

38:01And I'm telling him, there's something going on.

38:03They're forcing that girl to do something she doesn't want to do.

38:08They all came out.

38:10It was their arms through her arms.

38:13I stood there and watched them until they disappeared.

38:17My husband's saying, well, there's nothing you can do, Judy.

38:21So we got back on the ship.

38:23And I remember we went to get something to eat.

38:26The cafeteria where we were sitting, they had windows.

38:29And I could see Barbados.

38:30And all I could think about was that girl.

38:32And that was all I could think about for weeks.

38:36But I didn't know what to do.

38:37I didn't know who she was.

38:38All I knew was that her name's Amy.

38:43She's got an American accent, and she said she's from West Virginia.

38:46I thought it was West Virginia.

38:48I tried to just put it out of my mind until I saw that on Dr. Phil.

38:53I called the FBI.

38:57And I said, it was her.

38:58It was Zach.

38:58And they showed the picture.

38:59It was her.

39:00It was the same girl.

39:01That's what she looks like.

39:02Our agents in Barbados went out trying to figure out, could it have been Amy?

39:09Could she have been in that restroom?

39:12They spoke to those folks.

39:14There's no cameras.

39:15There's no video.

39:16And tried to track down as best as possible.

39:19But it did not furnish anything.

39:21We looked at everything in that picture and anything that could be identified.

39:26Pieces of furniture that had markings on them.

39:29You know, you look at the bed.

39:30Could we possibly find out the manufacturer?

39:34Anything that could possibly give us a lead to where this photo was taken?

39:40Everything under the sun comes into play.

39:43But victims of human trafficking can be very, very difficult to find.

39:47Survivors, after they've been rescued, have told us that the traffickers said that their entire families would be killed back in their home country if they didn't continue to do what they had to do.

39:57Do you remember leads coming in?

40:02In all those grains of sand that come in, there may be, you know, something that actually solves the mystery.

40:08But to look at it as an investigative lead, you need something else.

40:16You need somebody that knew that person, that was close to that person.

40:20Message one.

40:24Hi, my name is Amika Douglas.

40:29I'm the daughter of Alistair Douglas.

40:34I was just wondering if we can talk for Amy Bradley.

40:40I'm not really good at this, but I have information.

40:45I would really, really love to talk to you.

40:49I'm not really good at this, but I'm not really good at this, but I'm not really good at this.

41:19I'm not really good at this, but I'm not really good at this.
