Detectives learned that Eric had recently copied keys at a Tustin hardware store, where he also had a fake silencer like this one made for his Beretta 92F, reportedly as a movie prop.

Authorities believe that Eric shot Bill, ran out the pedestrian access gate, along this bike path, and over the Newport Boulevard bridge to the Thunderbird nightclub, where he worked.

In 1994, it took less than three minutes to walk across the bridge from Balboa Coves to the Thunderbird.

Nanette lived the high life in Orange County with her second and third husbands, chartering this boat for drinks and dinner in 2005.

Nanette (shown in 2007) had a sizable collection of pricey designer dresses, which she wore to eat lavish meals and dance at nightclubs every weekend.

Orange County District Attorney Investigator Larry Montgomery helped bring this case to trial.
