They told us we had to cull the whole flock.
That summer we were flat broke.
- And how did Jesse hear about the job at the caravan park?
- Saw it advertised in the local paper, I think.
It was only a summer job.
- He also visited Dunmore Sands on a later occasion.
The same day a three-year-old child was abducted.
- You're the copper what questioned him.
The missing child.
- Her name was Zoe Lindsey.
- Jesse had nothing to do with that.
- He also lied to the police about his movements that day, Mrs. Halpin.
(suspenseful music) - He's not even gone to his grave and you come to my house and drag it all back up again.
- Did Jesse ever mention a man named Daniel Preston?
- What has this got to do with the murder of my husband?
- Just answer the question, Mrs. Halpin.
- Not that I remember.
Now, if we're done here, I've got work to do.
(suspenseful music continues) - Her husband was murdered.
What happened to compassionate policing?
- Oh, come on.
She's covering for him.
She must know something.
- Is this really about closing a cold case, or is it actually about getting one over on Goodwin?
- This is about a parent who lost a child 14 years ago.
- But we've got nothing on Halpin, except that he worked there that summer.
- Well, maybe it's time we went back to the crime scene.
