Man Terrified After Learning Roommates Evil Secret

come on outside okay so I is is staying up here this is the father and son who owned this Ranch House in the New Mexico desert miles from anywhere police believe a murderer is hiding inside their home Thomas Lopez a man who days earlier beat his girlfriend to death Jesus Christ do you know where he might be stand at or anything but what makes this interesting is that the son is in fact hiding this man and the father is about to find out that his son is protecting a murderer inside the vents of his own

home they said he might be in the vent Thomas Thomas talk to me m I know you're down there we don't come over here for simple Stu yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah so what's up dead on the 24th of February police were called to a hospital in New Mexico to investigate something horrifying 26-year-old Sabrina Calderon had just been brought in unconscious covered in bruises barely Clinging On To Life um so her name is Sabrina cauldon C is in such like dehydration that her kidneys are failing she is too sick for even us to take care

of and who brought her in I believe said they thought it was her dad what is that would you say is that something from being being hit she's 26 years old she should not be in this condition right Sabrina is in such critical condition that the nurses are almost certain she won't survive but what made the hospital so suspicious is that Sabrina's injuries were that of someone who had been viciously beaten and the man who dropped her off left almost as quickly as he possibly could the hospital called in police but with no leads the

cops decided to use her emergency contact info and call up her dad to see if he could shed any light on what just happened can you hear me now Mr Kon uh yes could you tell me what happened real quick why she has these injuries uh yes oh Thomas Lopez he got it from here I guess that night point he took it over there and uh where's over there it's a ranch house he had her locked up in the room and he was just be there she said he was be there every day that was

was almost disturbingly simple apparently a man had taken her at knife point from her dad's home and was beating her every day at a house out on a ranch somewhere in New Mexico the cops find it extremely strange that he never contacted police so there is some amount of Suspicion to cast on him regardless they ask him for some details about the guy that he claims did this to her knowing that if this lead hits a dead end they know who to suspect next where does he live at he was just going from place to

place how did you get her he ended up taking her to the hospital and I thank God for that and dropped off and took off do you know what he looks like I sure don't I sure don't say his name one more time uh Thomas Lopez Thomas Lopez Okay police now have a name Thomas Lopez the victim's father claims that Lopez was the one who both attacked and dropped Sabrina off at the hospital which would explain why he was in such a big rush to leave what do you think he would mostly in car's b

or in ptalis I mean he he just St wherever he could I guess it seems like Thomas is going to be extremely difficult to track down the cops don't have a description of him he has a common name and constantly jumps from place to place without a known address if this guy had gone on the run it could be weeks before they managed to find him but that's when everything changed Sabrina briefly woke up and found the strength to confirm that it was indeed Thomas that had done all this to her and she managed to

give police the address of the ranch her father mentioned all before taking her final breath and dying moments later Sabrina had just solved her own murder immediately the cops head to the address heavily armed knowing that they might come face to face with an aggressive killer however there is one problem police haven't had time to get a search warrant meaning that they have no right to enter the home without permission that means they're stuck outside knowing that just feet away a brutal murderer could be hiding Ian is that you Ian come to the front door

for me hold on a second who is it it's the Sheriff's Office let me let me see your hands come outside let me see your hands let me see your hands is the dog okay sir hey rice I got contact I don't have nothing okay sit T right here man okay yes sir s this is Ian part owner of this Ranch and good friend of Thomas Lopez Sabrina had told cops about him and said that he could be vital to tracking Thomas down at this point the cops have no idea how much Ian knows but

they do know that his house is supposedly where Sabrina was attacked for all they know he could have been involved as well so they have to be extremely cautious when dealing with him and clearing out the house who's all here man my father um my friend Bugsy what's Bugsy's real name I don't know come on outside keep your hands Ro to see him what's going on here Thomas staying out here or has he been out here been out here a few times seen is there anybody else inside you said Bugsy if I can go with

you with the door can you call her outside yeah okay let me go get her yeah well just call her from the door please Bugsy is another one of Ian's friends that happened to be staying at the property around this time she couldn't have anything to do with the crime but cops are still pleased to hear that there might be another witness and someone that could help them track their suspect down so what we're doing we're asking everybody to come out of the house piix to do a search war on the house supposedly there was

an incident a couple of nights ago where somebody got beat up out here and so now we secur in the house to do a search War for evidence okay see how Perry keeps looking over to Ian it's almost like he knows something is wrong because this isn't the first time that Ian's brought criminals over to this house something police would later bring up with that said Perry obviously doesn't want to give his own son up to the police so he decides to stay quiet we're we're good uh we're out here with way so there's nobody

else in the trailer so we just chilling out here for now for temple notice how Ian doesn't say a word that's because he just hours earlier helped Thomas crawl into the vents inside his house to hide him from the cops however his father has absolutely no idea yeah we're good we're good for the next few minutes out here uh just that'll work thank you well we don't have it right now we're getting it like I said we just came here okay well then we don't have to do anything you say we're secure in the house

you don't actually have a warrant no I do not have a come here here exercising my rights I come here so we can talk okay would you mind if I walked inside with you just so we can make sure there's nobody else inside sure okay I I will go with you like I said I'm not looking for anything except for just make sure there's nobody inside they're still not 100% sure that the house is empty Ian mentioned someone called bugy but wasn't sure if they were still around or not so the officer prepares to head

inside and clear the scene with Ian okay you you might have to put on some L yeah go for it man it make it easier for both of us and you don't have anybody staying with you currently no no I just want to make sure you know not somebody waiting behind me you know back here man so okay didn't mind if I walk make sure there's nobody on the side go ahead man okay appreciate it man yeah absolutely okay thank you you mind if I walk in here like I said I'm not worried go ahead

go ahead I'm not looking for anything just make sure nobody's in here sure yeah it happens man um do you mind if I take a look inside abolutely appreciate that too okay thank you my cross be fing right on do you have just friends stay from time to time or you have I have once a while you [Music] know hey hey sorry my bad hey I'm right here okay come back here what you under the covers let me see your hand what's up hey there's somebody under the blanket there you under the covers let me

see your hands it's let me see your hands it's not a guy but you see it's not a guy okay right M coming with us ma'am you're looking for okay no she's fine look for a dude we're we're not looking for her but we do ma'am need to ask that you come outside with us clearly Bugsy isn't the person they're looking for but she would turn out to be extremely useful to the case down the line she's been staying at the house recently so the cops keep her around thinking she might have seen something and

didn't the officer then clears the rest of the house and finds it to be totally empty in the meantime the officer outside catches Perry up on everything that's been going on at the house lately and what they plan to do in the search so you're ref to this thas SC yes yeah Thomas has gotten himself into some pretty heavy at this point so uh yeah but what I've seen I don't care for the dude okay uh keep this between me and you uh I'm here trying to make right and I apologize for my son you

know what what happens what's up okay not dude okay that's yeah obviously not the guy we're looking for so Mr Wayan yes um so they're fing where they are right now but what it's sounding like is uh the investigators are wanting to do the entire property covered in the search warrant so what does that mean well meaning the car is going to have to stay here they can they're okay in there for now um but they and they are asking the entire property you want to go through the Barns and yes sir that's what it's

sounding like we could probably go do that right now well the wellhouse is locked up and the Barn's unlocked okay I could take y'all on a tour if you want yeah we're going to wait for them to get the paperwork done just so that I don't think I'll be honest I don't think Thomas is hiding in the shop or something like that but on the off chance that he is I don't want him to have the uh the ability to talk to a and say will they illegally search the barn even if we have permission

at this point we're just going to kind of Stand By and do it to by the books for the paperwork okay the thing is Officer rice was wrong thinking that Thomas wasn't hiding on the property had he gone looking for him on his own things could have ended much much worse for him however the day is coming to an end and it's time for the officers to go over everything they figured out so far however they can't risk Ian or Perry overhearing any of this see if you can figure out why that might be and

we'll reveal it after this clip she's been living here probably you ask her I have I would ask her CU if she has been living here she might have witnessed this sorry I don't mean to be on edge but you yeah especially after yeah but um I guess the way it's looking she died that situation like those people I see I'm guessing there was some inter Turtle injuries so it wasn't like you trapped her down the way it see okay the officers are clearly trying as hard as they can to conceal the exact details of

the case from Ian and Perry that's because detectives plan to interview them later so the less information that gets put into their heads the better this is usually for two main reasons if they're guilty of something this stops them from changing their answers to hide evidence based on what they know or if they're just a witness it stops them from giving answers based on what they heard from the cops rather than what they actually saw protecting their credibility in court it should be made clear that this isn't the first time that cops have been dispatched

to Ian's house and in fact multiple criminals had been arrested here before though never Ian himself he just seems to hang around with the wrong people let me tell okay Hey listen they're expanding the search through the whole property we cannot take the car okay so okay so the thing is with it and is you guys physically yourselves are not being entertained okay other other than I guess today any other issues going on no okay that's that's good I guess fortunately no um got a nice place out you got be more select about who comes

out yeah that's do honestly I used when I lived out in the county if I had friends over and they brought somebody I didn't know I would straight up tell him back guys I'm cool with all y'all said but him I don't know him he said and if I don't know him he doesn't need to be here if you haven't noticed the longer this goes on for the more un comfortable Ian seems to get and as that continues the cops start to get more suspicious too after having multiple criminals caught and arrested on his property

you'd think he'd start to be more careful about who comes over that's what made the cops suspicious here if he's been hanging around so many criminals he might feel obligated to cover up for them that's the main thing on the officer's mind when he decides to bring Ian into the interview room but they actually decide to wait before questioning him they have a fairly large number of witnesses for the case so they want to get as much information from the others first before talking to the riskiest of the group ideally they'll get information that could

help catch Ian and a lie and force him into telling the truth so they start by questioning his father Perry the owner of the property too many people coming and going I'm getting sick of this so you were in your room they had been there a couple of days um you heard her getting slapped you knew she was getting slapped by the way she was sounding you peeed out Ian was tell hey y'all need to call him quit or whatever he said the girl outside this Elizabeth chick um and some other guy gave the girl

that was being slapped after she says y'all even help me but that apparently was two different women see I thought the girl that would got beat up was not this girl I don't know I'll stay back in my room but you saw a woman getting beat yeah but I didn't think it was her she was already in Carl's bad right is a to she just barely got in Carl's Bad probably Friday it seems that Perry absolutely heard Thomas attacking at least one woman but wasn't able to confirm who it was he backs up Ian's propensity

to let anyone and everyone over to the house and tells the cops that it was bound to end up badly eventually if Perry can identify the girl that he saw Thomas hitting though it could be a massive help for the cops as it would mean all the evidence lines up and they can begin their search for him immediately suppos we just got the N you got the faces mixed up which you don't seem sure but you knew wom thought I thought these two there and there was there is Thomas did beat up another girl that

he has warrants out for his arrest now too that's why he's running do he beat up every woman he comes in contact with see I thought we was talking about another woman I knew this I knew of this chick the picture you showed me I knew of her her going to the ER but the chick that I heard through the wall saying y'all got to help me was not her okay Perry is saying that he had heard Thomas beating a girl up but that it was a completely different girl to the one that they were

looking for so now there was even more reason to catch him as soon as possible as it seems like this wasn't an isolated incident at all maybe I'm confused cuz Okay once she went to the ER she never went back to the house right okay I'm thinking of another chick does that make sense no but we'll figure it out I'm sorry man I'm sorry this whole thing is just confusing this for me I need to be more involved I know with who comes and goes but you know he thinks he's a grown man now I's

going to have to start putting his put down about who stays at the house PL of simple well we need to get this man Perry unfortunately didn't have much else to add so now they turn their attention to Bugsy their surprise witness who might just have the answers they're for okay cuz you might have might have seen or heard something that happened out there at gan's house a couple days ago um honestly I just got there today to do some laundry so I have well Ian says you were out there a couple of days ago

whenever this incident happened okay um okay you know Thomas the guy that's always out there with Ian and all them guys I mean I've seen him a few times out there yeah I mean even if I was if I was there I didn't I mean I didn't see none of that did you hear any of it I didn't after first glance it seems like Bugsy might not be as much help as they anticipated but things can change quite quickly when a witness is told just how serious the situation is that's why the officer decides to

let her in on what happened to Sabrina and see if that jogs her memory at all the reason we're here it's because there's a girl that was with Thomas today she started having complications from what Thomas and Saina had an altercation over okay she is now deceased unfortunately for the cops this didn't change the fact that Bugsy hadn't seen anything at the house however she was able to give them one piece of information that could end up proving infinitely more useful than what they were hoping for initially she gave them the address of another house

Thomas was known to stay at inside that house is actually another one of Thomas's victims and the police are about to discover that he's actually a Serial domestic abuser this is crucial to build a strong case against Thomas good and yourself very good all right looking for Thomas he's not here um my my friend Monique that's her boyfriend okay she me to stay here CU she's is Monique not here either she not she went she went toov okay and I'm just watching do you know where Thomas is he's not supposed to be here we just

really need to talk to him he not supposed to be here we changed the locks for her CH the lock for she's really scared of him so oh yeah yes we changed the lock okay do have was she battered a while back is that what that do you mind if we just just make sure he's not in the house that's you what that I'm a friend but nobody else is in this house yeah um the only thing is that she she called me said she scar my boyfriend changed out the box for her he took

her phone oh he took her phone yeah when you're saying her who are you talking about M she has been here all day I you stay your phone but she still lives here yes yes she hasn't had contact with him that you would know of pretty much nothing to do with him how long ago was it was their incident that happened that was yesterday but she called me and told me you to come change out her locks because she scared you it turns out this is the home of the other girl that Thomas had reportedly

been beating which if anything is worrying the cops even more since we know he's not limiting his violence to one girl it would make sense if he's hiding out here waiting for this girl to come back home the homeowner however is telling the cops that he's not here and she's not seen him for days is she working or where is she at um she just got a rehab and she went to club with her daughter oh I guess that's what it was about 7:30 yesterday does he have any friends over here that we know that

he hangs out with family I know of him because she's my friend I know she don't have nobody terrorizes her do you think he still has her phone oh he does get that number he does have her phone the officers continued to search every room in the the house as well as the attic but weren't able to find him anywhere according to everyone they talked to Thomas had gone off the grid and was nowhere to be seen but there was still one person they hadn't talked to the one person that they knew was acting strange

from the very beginning Ian whan if anyone was going to know where he was it was going to be Ian so later that night they brought him into the interrogation room for hopefully the last interview that they need in this case their their cameras are down so I'm using this thing okay okay I'll explain to you why we're here talking you're not in any kind of trouble okay not in any trouble you have any idea why you might be down here well yes about what because of the fight or whatever I guess that Thomas had

right you know anything else about it no remember Ian hasn't been told any details of what actually happened yet he doesn't know that Thomas killed Sabrina or even that there was a physical exchange but that's all about to change in just a few moments Tom let's talk about Thomas Lopez when was the last time you seen him it's been about like a day or so day or so what about his girlfriend Sabrina about a day or so okay what happened between Sabrina and Thomas I just like heard an altercation I didn't like see anything I

just heard them screaming at each other enough to where it alarmed me were they inside your house when they did that when they were screaming okay was there any anything physical going on or just screaming did you see anything physical did you hear anything physical did you hear yelling stop or M stop or anything mhm no so whenever you heard screaming and stuff where were they at like I guess it would be like down towards the kitchen area I don't know I heard them yelling what not and I went out there and I was like

hey man are yall okay and you're just like yeah man fine you know and what did she say that's it's clear Ian was around when the fight happened but it seems like he didn't realize how bad things had actually gotten apparently Sabrina was actually crying when he went to talk to them but he just figured it wasn't his business and went back to sleep in his room do you know what the fight was about I don't and honestly I've got so much stuff of my own crap like okay when was the last time you heard

from Sabrina I don't know Sabrina like I'm not making this up like that's Thomas's girlfriend or whoever I I don't even know that like I just know that that there was an altercation between I I don't even know if this Sabrina is if this is who like messed up teeth I'm assuming that's who it was so that day that when we went out there was as the officer mentioned earlier Ian has a habit of letting people that he barely knows stay at his house but it turns out this is a recipe for disaster since people

know he likely won't get involved in their business they see this property as a an area out in the middle of nowhere where they can do whatever they want with no eyes on them at all initially this only resulted in smaller crimes robbery or drug possession but this time it turned into something much more serious and Ian is now about to find out exactly what happened do you know why I'm here no remember I told you last time we don't we don't come over here for simple stuff yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I remember you

told me that so what's up dead you're me what happened do you know well from what she told us before she died was that she was getting her ass beat by Thomas over that your house in the barn with a golf club died and so whenever you heard him arguing when he said he was getting pretty rough or what did you see him do like just slapping her just sling well I just trying to figure out what happened and first of all if he's in your house he let know so yeah from the very beginning

cops figured he knew a little more than he was letting on now he knows exactly what happened how serious it was and what the consequences will be if he doesn't give up everything he knows not only will he be implicated in the crime but if Thomas is on the property and he ends up harming an officer that will be his fault the question is is that enough for him to turn in his friend when was the last time you seen Thomas when even he at your house house I know where does he hide in your

house whenever the cops are trying to get him where did where would he go hide inside we're over there okay the house is secure we're going to Surge War for it where would he be hiding if he's in your house where would he be at you don't want that problem at your house no like I didn't know have you seen Thomas have you seen Thomas today tell me the truth man yeah I mean where was he at when you seen him uh in the house okay was he there when the cops got there just a

while ago um can we take the oh do this is Ian's ultimatum Ian had been put in a scary position he knew what the right thing to do was but he was also terrified of this footage getting out amongst the people he hung around he didn't want to be seen as someone untrustworthy so he asked for the camera to be turned off and told the detectives the truth Ian admitted that Thomas was at his house in fact he was hiding in the vents apparently that's where he was the whole time now the cops knew exactly

where he was but getting to him would be no easy task to arrest him they'd have to try everything they could to make contact with him or else get into the cramped vents with a known killer right I mean he knows we're here yeah I assume he knows we're going to come back I guess I don't know the in the interview they said he might be in the vent oh yeah that's what they're CLA that's what Ian is claiming is that he might be so in a vent the only one large enough for an adult

that I know of is when you go in there's a hallway that goes all the way to back house so there be a blanket in the hallway right now as we go in and still clear all the little areas that we go past so I don't want to get fixated and have him com behind us you hit that vent the downside is you'll have two rooms to clear in the hallway before the vent so the last door is literally next we'll figure it out if anybody see something weird several cops made it to the scene

a few minutes earlier and have managed to locate the vents they think he's hiding inside of Thomas this is the RO County Sheriff's Office come outside he's not answering let know if he doesn't resp sh bman fall out man with your hands up know you're down there is that the B he went in or this goes down there's no access back there I I had the he put the vent back on so he knew he was down there the officers are right the vent cover couldn't have been put in place from the inside side so

Ian had to have helped him hide but they'll figure out what to do about that later for now they need to figure out a way to get Thomas out of the vents to start with locate his exact position and they came up with a creative solution to do this huh he was right there how far approximately just trying to see if there's a mirror I got a good point just need du mirror probably duct tape in the garage tape a phone and flashlight in there just so we get some really good light and light them

up just firm it sounds far-fetched but after pointing a phone and a torch deep into the vents they were able to confirm precisely where Thomas was it looks like you can see the back his neck a jacket the problem was he still wasn't responding and they certainly didn't want to get in the vents with him so while another group of officers checked the outside to ensure he couldn't escape the cops tried desperately to reach out to him but quickly they started to get concerned about something else entirely Thomas if you can hear me man answer

I know you're down there we saw you in the pictures answer me just let me know you're okay man are you okay down there like you would think that he shuffle a little bit I haven't heard looks like he moved since yeah like no noise nothing Thomas had been down there for hours now possibly even days the cops know he's there but they haven't seen his face or any movement whatsoever they're fearing the worst but they still can't risk going down there with him that's when one of the officers gets a genius idea you're going

to want to push him back this way cuz he's going to have to come out this way so if you introduce gas you want to introduce him on that okay you have a foger you pe spray yeah I would introduce it down there you going to do the same thing with a video it may make him uncomfortable enough you'll come out that's going to make you cough now looks like he's facing us hey his his head's up here for sure he went in feet yeah cuz you don't want them to crawl so I would introduce

it over there too push them this way yeah yeah they're planning to shoot pepper spray into both ends of the vents forcing him out if he was to stay inside he'd end up choking and ring in the pain the gas caused but it turns out this plan was so smart and terrifying to Thomas that they wouldn't even have to put this into action I hear him hey come on out man dude come on out what did I do come out we'll talk I'm I'm scared sir well there's nothing to be scared about come on out

I've been beat up by the cck before I understand but nobody's going to hurt you I just need you to come out slow something to e yep we'll get something to be got some dirt in there take the off the concept of being stuck in the vents with the pepper spray was just too much to Thomas and with some convincing they were able to get him out the ideas and tactics used in this extraction were far from textbook but they were incredibly smart now they just had one more job to do interrogate Thomas and finally

figure out the truth of what happened to Sabrina move all this over here okay you speak English or Spanish both okay you want preferably English though preferably English and we'll stick with English so listen to me we are in America you have the right to remain silent anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law well what we are here for is what happened with Sabrina the other night that's what all this is about there is an enormous amount of evidence against Thomas remember everyone involved in the case has

pointed the finger towards him including the murder victim herself but that doesn't mean he's not going to try and defend himself notably without the presence of a lawyer the story he chooses to go with though isn't the most convincing okay we we talked to Sabrina okay she told us what happened to her okay I need you to be honest with me and tell me the truth okay were you guys fighting that night just argument that's all it was we wen't fighting get physical did she how many times did she hit you I don't want her

to get in trouble sh okay how many times did you hit her I didn't hit her sir we just bumping each other like you know what I mean did you shove her down the steps for those injuries M have sh her it's my kid's mom but you guys have a kid together I don't want to he her so tell me what happened in that bar that's what she fell on Ser went back there and argued cuz I don't want we want to be arguing in in that house I want to get thrown CU I know

I don't have knowwhere to live but apparently they went out to the barn because they didn't want to argue in the house and Sabrina slipped and fell down some steps causing all of her injuries you guys are arguing okay and it did get phical but you didn't want to tell me what happened right is that what you're telling me he got physical but you don't want to tell me what happened said just kind of just got each other's face but it was that the same you took her to the hospital um I mean it it

was ongoing for like a couple days so you guys were just like basically arguing for two days pretty much when was the pushing and shoving I to say pushing and shov we just kind of chest pump and whatever yeah when was that during that that night when she fell okay so you guys do this chest chest P we we want to argue in that house cuz I don't want to get thrown out of there Thomas is also claiming that he didn't hit her or even push her around the worst they did was get into each

other's faces and bumped each other's chests as I'm sure you're aware that's not exactly consistent with Sabrina's injuries or what she told the police but Thomas's story gets even more unbelievable as he continues so then you guys go out to the bar what happens next just sitting there just smoking a cigarette and stuff we're up there so you guys go up and you like upstairs in the barn is that what you're saying yeah in that L you start up there and then she start coming back down and she Los her footing she goes down the

damn steps so was so when was the the I pick her up walk her to the house and she's like if I can't bear it no more than I need to take me to the emergency room so when were when was the uh the chest bumping or uh all that where was that at was kind of beginning we got in there like got in there then that's what how'd she fall down the stairs she lost her footing I guess like you look at the stairs and there inside that place it's there's a big ass gap

between each it's not constructed pretty good there like some some just put together and we talking from the top all the way to the bottom like halfway maybe the bottom she lost her footing kind of junk and stuff that's in that bar so not only did Thomas not have anything to do with her injuries but when she got hurt they'd already made up he believes that this story has explained a way why Ian will have heard shouting in the house why they went out to the barn and why Sabrina got such horrific injuries this is

why it's so important that detectives keep as much of the evidence as possible secret he's constructed a story that technically covers up all the evidence that he thinks exists and while it's not comprehensive it would definitely make proving his guilt in a courtroom slightly harder but it doesn't explain a huge number of other things like how the injuries were sustained by a golf club or the drugs Sabrina said he injected her with both things he doesn't know the cops know about and in fact he was never able to explain these other things away there was

simply too much evidence for Thomas to deal with and he chose to plead guilty at his trial nurses from the hospital told the jury that Thomas had initially told them she'd fallen down the stairs too but Sabrina immediately refuted this claim when she woke up she said he'd hit her multiple times with his bare fists struck her multiple times full force with a Golf Club and had her tied up to a chair in the barn for a large amount of time while this all happened even worse she said this had been going on for around

a month and for the entire time she felt as though she had been held captive obviously there wasn't much Thomas could do against this defense and he was convicted of murder kidnapping and resisting an officer he was sentenced to 18 years behind bars if you're interested in watching our uncensored extended two to 4-Hour coverages of these original cases make sure to check out our patreon Linked In the description
