A See No Evil episode titled “In My Heart, I Knew” that delved into the puzzling case of Diamond Bradley’s murder aired on Investigation Discovery on May 12, 2022.
The centrepiece of the episode was Diamond, a sixteen-year-old girl who vanishes in 2018 in an odd circumstance.
Police and detectives launch a hunt for her in an effort to use security footage to provide information about her whereabouts.
Their research, however, takes a terrifying turn when they learn that an older guy called Richard Henderson savagely stabbed her many times before abandoning her in a roadside trench.
He is an Illinois criminal. He received a severe prison term from the government for killing Diamond Bradley.
In Putnam County Court, Henderson admitted guilt to the counts of Diamond Bradley’s murder.
As a result, the judge gave him a 53-year prison term.
Investigators discovered that Henderson killed Diamond after they met online, according to Putnam County Sheriff Kevin Doyle.
Diamond agreed to meet him the morning of January 24, 2018, he added.
According to Sheriff Doyle, Henderson picked up Diamond from her home between the hours of 6 and 7 in the morning and took her to Granville Township, which is located about 100 miles southwest of Chicago.
After some time, they got into a heated argument that quickly escalated into a fight, which Henderson tragically ended by stabbing Diamond many times.
The murderer of Diamond Bradley is said to have dumped her body in a trench next to a rural road 100 miles southwest of Chicago.
Diamond vanished on January 24, 2018, and her damaged body was found by a bystander on January 27, 2018, close to the roadside ditch on Putnam County Road.
The police located Richard using mobile records and security camera footage.
He was detained on suspicion of first-degree murder.
Richard chose to strike a plea agreement rather than choose to go before Judge Stephen.
The Bradleys accepted the plea deal because they felt they had no other option.
Diamond’s mother, Doris Bradley, testified in court about the significant effect the murder has had on her family.
She had relocated to Illinois Valley in the hopes of giving her children a better life, but now that the tragedy had left her with painful memories, she voiced a wish to leave and start over somewhere else.
Bradley revealed that her other two kids, ages 14 and 11, have trouble going to sleep at night.
She said that it had affected her capacity to work, and that everyone in the family is doing their best to deal with the circumstance and move on.
She also mentioned how important Diamond was to their family and how they are deeply saddened by her passing.
Bradley emphasised that Diamond was extremely important to them by describing the house as being unnaturally quiet.
Their hearts are left with an unfillable void as a result of the dreadful tragedy.
Richard Henderson is currently incarcerated and will remain there for many more years, thanks to the cops.
