When it comes to love, there's no way to know what secrets are hidden or what happens when
Starting point is 00:00:45 those secrets are revealed. What happens when a lover is betrayed? Some women search for him, a fairy tale prince charming. I have dreamed of a knight in shining armor. Don't laugh, but I've kept a medallion of gold and silver of a knight upon a steed for the day I meet him. And then he actually appears, comes out of her dreams to sweep her off her feet. I have a huge heart of gold that I want to share with my partner. But sometimes fairy tales don't have a happily ever after. It starts on Friday night, the 4th of July weekend in Norfolk, Virginia.
Starting point is 00:02:00 It's about 1.30 in the morning, patrolling the East Ocean View area when I got the call from dispatch to respond to Fridon Street. As I'm approaching the steps, I can see that the interior front door is open and I can also see that there's a light on inside the residence. And he sees an older woman on the floor on the rug next to a phone that appears to have blood on it. This woman has been stabbed multiple times and her throat has been slit. Her name was later determined to be Vonda Goina,
Starting point is 00:02:54 and she was 74 years of age. I immediately drew my weapon, walked in, asked the elderly female, is there anybody else in the residence? She said, my daughter is in the bedroom. My main concern was, is the person that did this still in the residence? Took a couple of steps towards the bedroom, walking down the hall. He knew what he was going to find, a second victim.
Starting point is 00:03:33 She was clearly deceased, covered in blood, laying naked face down on the floor. She was later identified to be Angelique Guayena. She was 35 years old. Her nickname was Angel. And the scene in her room was stomach-turning. Unfortunately, I've been to a lot of homicide scenes. It was probably one of the worst. That room literally just looked like something out of the movies.
Starting point is 00:04:03 It didn't even look real. It was very clear that she had more stab wounds than what you could possibly count. Within the blood-soaked bed, you have this heartbreaking image of her childhood teddy bear, also soaked in blood. It is an image that is hard to forget. In the living room, Angel's mother is barely alive. As EMTs work, Whiteside steps out to call a homicide detective who tells him what has to happen next. He asked me at that time to do a dying declaration.
Starting point is 00:04:44 He asked me at that time to do a dying declaration. Normally somebody has the right to confront their accuser in court. This is the exception to that. The accuser is actually dead. So with their last breath, it's presumed to be the truth. A dying declaration can be used in court, but there is one rule. The person has to believe that they're going to die when they give you the statement. A dying declaration can be used in court, but there is one rule. The person has to believe that they're going to die when they give you the statement, and then ultimately they have to die. For them to tell you their last thoughts is, this is who did it to me, that's very powerful.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Walter Lucas, she says. Walter Lucas. On my answering machine from 15 years ago, it's Angelique and mom singing Happy Birthday to me. Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you. I kept it so a month later they're not on our planet. Happy birthday to you. Somehow it's still intact. And many more. Angel is the baby of the family. She's younger than her three siblings by 16 years. And she loves fantasy novels. She loves dressing up in Elizabethan style.
Starting point is 00:06:17 But her heart is clearly in her poetry. A heart is judged by the love it gives, its thoughts, deeds, and actions. First you must open your heart and take a chance. Angel and her mother Vonda were very close. She was the caretaker for her mom who had dementia and heart problems and that was her world. Well it was like my little sister was my mom's keeper. My mom was from West Virginia and she was a hoot. Oh my gosh, you know you couldn't pull the wool over her eyes at all. You know we all tried.
Starting point is 00:07:02 They were really in tune with one another, more so as friends, beyond that mother and daughter special bond. Angelique and mom would always go out to the beach to go to one of the stores for the Wicca. Wicca is a pagan spiritual practice. They see all of the earth and sky and moon, all of nature as a mother goddess. Angelique's always been fascinated with the stars. There's definitely energy to things, kind of like the force, be with you kind of thing. Beyond that, they also love tarot cards, reading each other's future and fortunes.
Starting point is 00:07:41 They did everything together, They went everywhere together. Except for, you know, of course when Angelique would go out on a date. Mom couldn't go then. She wanted to be married and she wanted a family. Yes she did. She talked about it. In 2006, Angel decides to put herself out there. So she signs up to a dating app. And then days after, she meets a man who's a father of two. What you can't live without, my dream is of finding happiness and love. My true love is out there still deep out. I would love one day to get my poetry published or to get my story published.
Starting point is 00:08:14 You place a strong emphasis on family as well. You get an A in my book. Angel's discovering so much more about David Hoshaw. He is an electrical designer. He's a scout master, he's seeming more and more to her like he could be the one. Within a matter of months, they fall in love,
Starting point is 00:08:38 David proposes, and now he's moved in with her and Vonda. I think my married name will be pretty, Angelique Elaine Hoschaw. I wonder if our children will have dark hair like me and blue eyes like David. Angel was into the Renaissance and she was having a special dress made. It was red trim, you know, just kind of fairy tale. It was very much Angel.
Starting point is 00:09:07 I still have the dress that I purchased to wear as maid of honor. Of course, neither of those dresses are ever worn. Two months before her wedding, Angel is killed. Who would kill Angel and her mother so brutally and why? The police are about to get a chilling clue, a letter from the killer himself. Can't get enough 2020 True Crime?
Starting point is 00:09:35 This podcast is for you. Go behind the scenes of 2020's gripping stories and get exclusive audio you won't hear anyplace else. Join me, Deborah Roberts, for 2020 The After Show, part of the 2020 podcast. Listen now ad free on Amazon Music. Hello, it's Robin Roberts here. Hey guys, it's George Stephanopoulos here. Hey everybody, it's Michael Strahan here. Wake up with good Morning America. Robin, George, Michael, GMA, America's favorite number one morning show.

Starting point is 00:10:37 Two women stabbed to death inside this Frieden Street home. Tonight, Norfolk police are looking for the person responsible. The door frame around the front door had not been forced. They fingerprinted all the windows and found no latent fingerprints on any of the exterior windows to the house. No signs of some sort of forced entry. Nothing is stolen and there is no murder weapon.
Starting point is 00:11:01 All the DNA and fingerprints belong to Vonda, Angel, her live-in fiance David David and other family members. But remember they do have one clue. Vonda gave the police a dying declaration and said it was Walter Lucas. Walter Lucas. He doesn't live in the home but they found his DNA. Is this their big break? Walter is my ex-husband. We were married back in our 20s. And then, you know, we got divorced. But he stayed in touch with the family.
Starting point is 00:11:33 Everybody loved him. When the detectives told me that Vonda mentioned my name, I knew I wasn't there. And I knew that she had Alzheimer's. But he said my DNA was there and I said well of course I was there the week before visiting them. The detectives find that on the night of the murder Walter was more than 200 miles away. His alibi checks out so they have to cross Walter Lucas off the list. If there is no break
Starting point is 00:12:02 in the next question police ask is who could get into the house. Everyone who has a key, family, David, the fiance, all have alibis too. The family members confirmed that David Hoshaw is a couple hours away on the Middle Peninsula in Virginia at a Boy Scout week-long camp. David is with his 12-year-old son. Other parents see him there at 11 o'clock Friday night. Now 6.30 Saturday morning, he's there for camp breakfast. And David drives back into Norfolk that afternoon.
Starting point is 00:12:38 Police track him down and they tell him that they need him to come down to the station. So we talked to them, gave the alibi, denied committing the murder, and because there's nothing that points to him, he's allowed to leave. Days are passing and there's no arrest, no clues, no clear direction. Within a development that most murder investigations never see, a letter from the killer, and it's postmarked in Chicago. You don't have a clue, do you?
Starting point is 00:13:18 I met the pretty biatch at the beach a few days before I killed her. She had her mother with her. She told me she was getting married in September, but she wanted to have one last fling beforehand. It references Angel and her mother going to the beach. Now investigators cross-check her diary, where she actually talks about
Starting point is 00:13:38 going to the beach with her mom. Me and mom decided not to waste a good day. I were ready to be on the beach by 8 a.m. or so. And the dates line up. How would the writer know all this unless they knew the women? Unless they were actually there? About 12.30 or so, I got my knife and did the dirty deed. What a rush.
Starting point is 00:14:03 I should have gagged her first because she screamed and woke up her mother. Don't bother checking for prints or DNA. I'm wearing a body suit and gloves. Clearly it showed a killer that was reveling in what he had done. And then lo and behold, a second letter is received. It's mailed from Gaylord, Michigan, which is a small community in the middle of Michigan. This one is so badly spelled it's hard to read. Let me try. Detectives, I write to you again. I must confess I have done it for a second time.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Fryden Street was just the beginning for me. So now they're checking the Midwest for unexplained homicides. A killer could be roaming from state to state. Both letters and envelopes were forensically checked. No DNA on either of them. We have an extremely psychotic killer who is taking pleasure in taunting the police. Taunting the police is not a smart move. It tends to make them even more determined. That's when a new detective is added to the case, Rick Malbin.
Starting point is 00:15:10 He knows that the letters are all they have. Nobody is perfect when they commit a murder. There is no such thing as the perfect murder. But someone seems to be getting away with it. Malbin vows not for long. I was gonna do everything I possibly could to find that person A double murder
Starting point is 00:15:36 Two taunting letters from the killer and now that friends and family have been ruled out. No leads are panning it Prosecutor Phil Evans needs someone that he knows will get the job done. Let's get Rick Malbin on this case. We'll work it together. Detective Rick Malbin is a veteran homicide detective with 15 years under his belt. I knew that this case was gonna be difficult,
Starting point is 00:16:04 but deep down I felt that this was a solvable case. It may take time, but it was going to be a solvable case. You don't just look at suspects in a murder case. You also look at the victims. By 2008, Detective Malabon and his partner are digging deeper into Angel's past, and they find the ties to Wicca. Angelique's relationship with Wicca was more interest and I think that kind of trickled down to mom as well.
Starting point is 00:16:33 You know you can think of lunar rituals and secular worship. It is not black magic and Satanism. Wiccan rituals often involve a special set of mystical tools, commonly including a wand, a pentacle, a chalice, and a large knife called an athame, used only for symbolic purposes. Angel had become associated with a group that loosely operated out of a bookstore called the Mystic Moon.
Starting point is 00:17:05 To the police, that opened a Pandora's box of, well, who did she meet there? There's a call to the Northrop Police Department. There's a man that wants to talk about the Goyena case. He considered himself a vampire. We met with him. The man very quickly indicates that he knew Angel. He knew her from the Mystic Moon.
Starting point is 00:17:35 And he said he was part of that community where there were some people who were involved in vampirism. He also, disturbingly, implied to the detectives that he may know something about Angel's murder. The self-described vampire hands over an athame knife, he says, is the murder weapon. The knife was submitted to the lab. There was no DNA blood trace, and the knife could not have made the injuries on the bodies.
Starting point is 00:18:11 And so once we talked to him and knew that he was not close to the family, I didn't have a problem eliminating him. It's another costly detour, squandering time and resources. The police investigation of everyone Angel knew, including people from the Wicca bookstore, has led nowhere. The only real solid clue that they have at this point are these two letters. Detective Malbin knows that the whole case is riding on the letters. Proof who sent them and they have their killer.
Starting point is 00:18:45 Whoever wrote it knew a number of people. So Evans and Malbin take a harder look at someone who seemed to have an airtight alibi, Angel's fiance. We're talking about this guy, David Hosha. Who is he? Hosha has a job doing electrical work for a Virginia company with US Navy contracts. Detectives learn he tells Angel he's been placed on a project in the Midwest.
Starting point is 00:19:07 Most of the time, he'll be living up there and commuting back to Norfolk. He was supposedly building a ship, but why are you building a ship in Wisconsin or Michigan? It didn't make sense. There were definitely red flags that David possibly was cheating or hiding something from Angel.
Starting point is 00:19:28 When the forensic investigators were going through the house, one of the things that was of interest was a computer. We got the search warrant for the computer and once we got it to forensic, that's when we found out. On June 24, 2007, David Hoschaw, as the administrator for the computer, changed the password to 4AMANDA. Amanda? If David's marrying Angel in two months, who is Amanda? Detectives start digging into everything David Hoschaw said he was doing before, during, and after the killings. Was he really in Boy Scout camp the night of the murders?
Starting point is 00:20:12 We knew he was roughly 80 miles away at 11 p.m. at night, and he was there at 6 in the morning. That is not physically impossible to drive to Norfolk for two hours, commit a brutal homicide and drive back, but it's unlikely behavior. physically impossible to drive to Norfolk for two hours, commit a brutal homicide and drive back, but it's unlikely behavior. When you're looking at individuals capable of committing a homicide, David Hoschaw does not jump off the pages, but sometimes people that present that way are actually the most dangerous. Turns out David Ho Shaw was more dangerous
Starting point is 00:20:45 than anyone imagined. That's because there's a lot that Angel's Prince Charming hadn't told her. The cultural phenomenon, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is back with an all new season coming to Hulu May 15th. Where is everyone at? Mom Talk has gotten to a really hostile point. Demi's willing to kick Jessie out of the group.
Starting point is 00:21:08 I feel like I'm walking into a lion's den. It's going to get messy, for sure. Mom Talk is turning on each other left and right. The police are here. I can't see this going any other way but a pure bloodbath. This is so toxic. The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives streaming streaming on Hulu May 15th. FX presents, Welcome to Wrexham.
Starting point is 00:21:29 For the last four years, it's been this roller coaster of magic. The Emmy Award winning series returns. Come on, Wrexham! With an all new season. We're going into a really tough division. Birmingham, our absolute favorites, with the arrival of Tom Brady.
Starting point is 00:21:43 It's a friendly competition. Well, not so friendly. Imagine the opportunity to beat Tom Brady at sports. FX's Welcome to Wrexham premieres May 15th on FX. Stream on Hulu. David Hossaw was Angel's fairy tale hero. But detectives are coming to believe he may actually have been a dark prince. David Hoschaw became like a onion in the case.
Starting point is 00:22:15 The more you peeled him back, the more strange information came out. When Angelique Goiana meets her true love online, there's a lot he isn't telling her. Like, he's been married three times. I am Naomi Hoshaw. I was David's first wife. We were 16 and we met at Busch Gardens when we worked there. It's all the fun and splendor of old Europe, but a lot closer.
Starting point is 00:22:43 At first, neither one of us liked each other. You know, I looked at him like, oh, he's too preppy and his uniform's on too perfect, you know. I gave him a little bit of attention and he gave it back a million fold. I felt special. Of course, when he asked me to marry him, I definitely said yes. He then joined the United States Air Force and was transferred out to the Spokane, Washington area.
Starting point is 00:23:08 And the good times were good, but what I remember are more of the bad times. If you ever confronted him about anything, Switch would just flip in his brain. I found out I was pregnant, and he was like, no, you're not pregnant. And I was. And I was on bed rest at the very end. And I got up because I wanted something to drink. He came down the hall and grabbed my throat
Starting point is 00:23:41 and started strangling me. Finally, David let go. I was terrified and then there were some letters that I found. To my one true love. During his first marriage David also started to groom and unlawfully touch a 12 year old friend of the family. I went in there in hopes to be alone with you. Your mom would not have known. You're in your 20s and this person is still in elementary school. Love forever, David. I didn't know what was going on. I was naive. Naomi had complained to the United States Air Force about domestic abuse. The 12 year old girl and her parents cooperated with the United States Air Force about domestic abuse. The 12-year-old girl and her parents cooperated with the United States Air Force.
Starting point is 00:24:28 He pled guilty to both indecent acts and assault on the 12-year-old. The United States Air Force chose not to criminally prosecute him in a court martial, which could have sent him to prison, and administratively discharged him from the Air Force with an other than honorable discharge. I filed for the divorce, and he never fought me. After Naomi, he got involved with his eventual second wife, who he was married to for a short time.
Starting point is 00:25:02 And then there was me. My name is Allison Ashcroft. I am David's third wife. I met David in 2001 through an online dating website. He showered a lot of attention on me and that was not something that I was used to. At that time I was severely overweight and so that there was this to. At that time, I was severely overweight. And so that there was this person who found me attractive despite that was just mind blowing to me. We're trying to see if there's a continuity of violence
Starting point is 00:25:38 with Ho-Shaw. I had an injury at David's hands. I was having migraines and dizziness. And we had a massage roller. So he started rolling this thing back and forth across my neck. He started moving a little faster. And then eventually I just felt something just smack across the back of my head. And I just blacked out.
Starting point is 00:26:04 When I came to, he may have said he was sorry and that the roller just slipped out of his hands. In 2005, he said, this marriage isn't working out. I can't do this anymore. I think if I had tried to work things out with him, I might not be sitting here right now. And very soon, he would move on to things out with him. I might not be sitting here right now.
Starting point is 00:26:27 And very soon he would move on to a relationship with Angel. I was happy that my sister found someone, but when I met him, I didn't really care for him. You know, this force and energy, it wasn't good, but Angelique liked him, so I'm gonna like him too. Within a few months, David Hoschaw is moving in with Angel and Vonda. We were up in arms about that. You know, he's a bump.
Starting point is 00:26:53 He's gonna live in my mom's house for nothing. Angel's diary entries, they start to change. It's not all hearts and flowers anymore. He's been gr hearts and flowers anymore. He's been grumpy and moody. Tonight he was even arguing with mom. Well, I stood up for her, of course, but it put me in a strange place. David was wanting her to put Vonda
Starting point is 00:27:18 in a managed care facility, and Angel was vehemently against that. David didn't seem to have jumped in getting the wedding preparations together. He did nothing. He proposed, and that was it. She's bugging Hoshaw, who do you want to invite? And he kept saying, yeah, yeah, I'll get them to you.
Starting point is 00:27:39 And David Hoshaw's going back and forth to Michigan. He wasn't around, and I thought that strange And David Hoschaw's going back and forth to Michigan. He wasn't around. And I thought that strange for somebody who wanted to get buried. Angelique called me, and she was really upset and said that she'd had a bad dream, that she dreamed he was kissing someone else.
Starting point is 00:28:03 And I tried to console her. You're getting cold feet or something like that. In spite of all the red flags, even the day before she is killed, Angel is still looking forward to the wedding. Friday, after work today, as I always do, I check my voicemail and guess who finally called? David.
Starting point is 00:28:24 He'll be home sometime tomorrow, and for that, I am very glad. That is written just hours before she dies. After the murders, the family was completely puzzled by David's reaction. At the viewing at the funeral home, entire family shows up. Who doesn't show up? David Hoschaw.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Not only is David Hoschaw at no show at his fiance's funeral, he makes another stunning move. He packs up, leaves Norfolk, and moves to Michigan to be with a new girlfriend. A girlfriend he's been seeing behind Angel's back for months. Remember, as police were investigating Hoschaw, they discovered that shortly before the murder, he changed his computer password to For Amanda. Everybody settle please. Marking.
Starting point is 00:29:17 Tell me your first name and how you were connected to this case. Amanda and I was engaged to David Hosha. Amanda, who never knew there were three people in that relationship. Angel Guilena was brutally murdered and never knew one heartbreaking fact. While she was planning her wedding to David, Marking.
Starting point is 00:29:39 he was seeing another woman. Amanda and I was engaged to David Hulshaw. At Amanda's request we're not using her last name and have altered her appearance. She says David did tell her about an ex-girlfriend and that she had been killed. He was distraught, he was confused. He went to the police department and they're questioning him and I asked him I said did, did you do it? And he said, no. He said he was cleared. So I, you know, I believed him.
Starting point is 00:30:09 When I found out that he had another woman, I went, oh my gosh, Angelic's dream. It's like she was right. I set up a meeting with the victim's family and they were adamant that they knew it was David Hoschaw. And while police consider him a prime suspect, there's no physical evidence linking him to the murders.
Starting point is 00:30:34 And that's the real problem if they want an arrest warrant. We got two letters that we have a killer taking credit for the double homicide. But we needed evidence that showed that Hoschaw was the only person that could have a killer taking credit for the double homicide. But we needed evidence that showed that Hoshaw was the only person that could have mailed the letter. This is the envelope of the first letter that was mailed on July 23rd from Cardus Collins Processing Station in Chicago. We had to try to find something that would put him around Chicago. We started following the cell phone records of David Holeshaw. There was a cell call that bounced off a tower within a few miles of where this letter would have had to have been mailed.
Starting point is 00:31:17 That was really key. We were able to put him between 2.1 and 12.6 miles from that post office. August 15th. The second letter was dropped in the mailbox in Gaylord, Michigan. We knew that David Hoshaw took his new girlfriend, Amanda, on a little road trip. We started off in our town and we stopped at all these little different places.
Starting point is 00:31:46 And David Hosha's credit card purchases throughout the trip opened a window because his purchase history was literally a roadmap. There were hotels, there was the zoo, IHOP, movie theaters. We followed all of them. August 13th and 14th, he was consistently making purchases moving southward on the interstate to the point where he would go through Gaylord on August 15th.
Starting point is 00:32:18 So never saw him stepping away to go to the post office or mail anything. No, nothing's unusual. Now they've got a string of receipts and cell phone records that all connect David to the letters. The problem with that is that doesn't go into court and prove anything. It is always a lot more powerful when you have an eyewitness.
Starting point is 00:32:39 So Detective Malbun and his partner go on a road trip, talking to store owners and vendors. We ended up with 23 to 25 different people subpoenaed in this case. They present their case to the grand jury and get an indictment and an arrest warrant for David Hoschaw. David is now living with Amanda in northern Michigan, over 1,100 miles away from Norfolk, Virginia. The couple has one child, another one on the way, but the past has a way of catching up
Starting point is 00:33:13 with them. So, tell me about what happened. It was 4 a.m. In the Russian, one officer pushes me to the side. I'm asking what's going on. David Halshaw stepped out. He was handcuffed and escorted out of the house. They finally told me that he murdered two people, his ex. But really to find out it was his fiance. It wasn't his ex-fiance, it was just his fiance. What did you say?
Starting point is 00:33:47 I was stunned because I thought he was cleared. He was transported to state police barracks. Do you understand that in the state maybe he was used as evidence to catch you in a court of law. Where is that most secret, Mr. Schwoer? Yes. Do you understand that any statement you make may be used as evidence to catch you in court or not? Or is that more secretive than this one? Yes. Okay. We're here to talk to you about the death of something that's leaked into the FBI.
Starting point is 00:34:14 When we walked into that interview room, I expected to get a confession. I was so pumped. Right away, he shows Hosha all of the evidence that authorities say connects him to the anonymous letters. I know your heart is burning right now, man. But I guarantee you, once you get it off your chest, you're gonna feel a lot better. And then he broke my heart. I need to speak to Hunter. Huh?
Starting point is 00:34:43 I need to speak to Hunter. Okay. He lured up and I knew he wanted to talk to Amanda and Amanda had asked to talk to him. What is going on, dude? Being arrested for murder. Did you do it? Please be gone. Did you? I love you. I love you too with all my heart. Did you hurt these people? We have kids, honey. I know we do. I've asked for an attorney.
Starting point is 00:35:27 I don't want to say anything else in front of the police officer. So what did detectives say to you about talking to David during the interrogation? That I would have a private conversation in a room, and I could talk to him, and it would be just me and him. We'll give you that just me and him. Let me give you a message. This was in an interview room in which there was a camera that was discreetly placed.
Starting point is 00:35:55 And Detective Malbin advised David Hoschoff of his legal rights. Now where is that most sequence of this from? So did you know it was going to be recorded? No, I never knew that. Maybe I just, I need, you know, I'm just not the smartest cookie in the bunch, but I thought it was just a private room. He had a right to remain silent. He didn't have to talk to Amanda, especially about the case. He didn't have to answer her. I got stu... I got creeped. I'm crazy. I got crazy. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I don't know down there with that in my mind. I went down there to try and break up and things got out of hand.
Starting point is 00:36:50 I couldn't change his mind, right? That's what I tried to do. Amanda started going off. She picked up the letter. They have this letter. That was stupid. I was trying to get him off my back. She picked up the letter. They have this letter. That was that I was trying to get him off my back.
Starting point is 00:37:12 So at that point I knew I had the right person. If he had never mailed the letters, there's a very good chance the evidence would never have developed to charge him. would never have developed to charge him. I was pregnant at the time, and I just found out that my man is guilty of killing two, not one, but two people. I'm sorry I hurt you, Mr. Clark. That's what hurt me the most is the pain I'm causing you and our family. All I could think of is why I wanted to get up and slap him.
Starting point is 00:37:46 His smirky face. I love you. The man accused of killing a Norfolk woman and her mother now faces a capital murder charge. In Norfolk yesterday, a grand jury indicted David Wayne Hosha. But before the trial gets underway, David has one more surprise in store. I was shocked. Yeah, the NBA playoffs are here. And it's about to be ridiculous, unbelievable, unfair, damn right nasty. Straight up, can't miss, don't blink, grab your popcorn and strap in cinema.
Starting point is 00:38:44 This isn't about who's next. This is about who's now. This time, it's different. The NBA Playoff is presented by Google. Continue on ESPN ABC. The case was set to be tried for a month. We had about 140 witnesses subpoenaed. We were ready to go. We produced a mannequin and we asked the medical examiner to use knitting needles to demonstrate all of the wounds.
Starting point is 00:39:27 It not only shows just the incredible sheer number of stab wounds in this area, but it does clearly show that Angel sustained defensive wounds. A demonstration like that is so effective with the jury. It shows the level of violence of what they call overkill. The family has waited three years to hear David Hoshaw in the stand to see all the proof. You want people to be held accountable for their actions. Two
Starting point is 00:39:58 people are no longer with us who should be. Would you forgive somebody that killed your mom and sister? I won't. The death penalty is on the table. And facing all of that, Hosha surprises them all. David Hosha pleaded guilty to capital murder and first degree murder. He was originally scheduled for a jury trial next week. A guilty plea. No trial. And suddenly, it's over.
Starting point is 00:40:28 I was shocked. He deserved to go to trial to set that family free. Accepting the plea agreement for two life sentences, first-degree murder, David had to stand before the victims' loved ones, the Goyenas, and he had to admit to killing Angel and Vonda. Hey, you know, that really didn't go very far. That was more for the judge than for us.
Starting point is 00:40:55 Every word that came out of David's mouth in court just made me angry. Today, for the sake of my family family I'm pleading guilty to this horrific crime, putting their needs and their desires ahead of my own. Do you think that was for you and your children? I think he lied. He murdered him, he doesn't deserve to be alive. I'm sorry. He is ineligible for parole. He's gonna rot there in jail. Knowing that he's in jail, and my mom and sister are dead, no, no, it's not a whole lot of comfort there.
Starting point is 00:41:35 His past is horrific. He preys on those that are insecure and people he perceives as being weak, a group of women who just want to be loved. He was a predator. To avoid the death penalty, David Hoschaw had to admit that he killed Vonda and Angel, but he didn't have to say why.
Starting point is 00:41:55 And he wouldn't until more than a decade later. David Hoschaw agreed to interview with me over the phone since he is in a high-security prison facility. David tells me that night he went to Angel's house to simply break up with her at one in the morning. How were you thinking the night would have played out? and that things were over and I would go back to camp. But, yeah, I think the white woman got that way. Her emotions got my emotions going, and of course, got absolutely hurt. When I started to kill him, I just couldn't stop.
Starting point is 00:42:39 And his second victim? He says Vonda tried to stop him. I know that I can't change what has happened. second victim, he says Vonda tried to stop him. I think I am at peace. I know I am at peace. It's taken me years to get to this place. I just think of them very fondly. My mom's incredible sense of humor. And Angel just got Angelique was a gift to our family.
Starting point is 00:43:26 What are you left with when someone dies? For the Guyanas, angels' poems. The night with its endless realm of possibilities. What could last forever? Stars, scattered diamonds of the night. The stars watch and somewhat guide choices and outcomes. But in the end, the starsopoulos here. Hey everybody, it's Michael Strahan here.
