Dave Was 47: The Kacie Woody Case

In the fall of 2002, a 13-year-old girl in rural Arkansas spent her evenings chatting with a boy named Dave. Dave said he was 17, a surfer from San Diego. Dave was actually David Fuller, 47, of La Mesa, California. On the night of December 3, 2002, Kacie Woody stopped answering her instant messages mid-sentence, and roughly twenty hours later police found her in a rented van inside a Conway storage unit, in one of the first widely documented cases of a predator using the internet to groom, abduct, and kill a child.

In this episode, we tell the story on two screens at once: the chat window in a farmhouse living room in Holland, Arkansas, and the reality behind it in California. We follow Kacie, a police officer's daughter who lost her mother at seven, through the innocent logic that put her online, and we trace Fuller's two months of preparation: the reconnaissance flight to Little Rock, the gun, the storage unit, the chloroform, and the fake story about a dying aunt that positioned his arrival. Then we watch small-county investigators with no cybercrime unit improvise the manual in real time, from the bent eyeglasses and the true-love notes in a bedroom trash can to the phone records that matched a rental car agreement and the credit card charge that led them to the door.

Person: Kacie Rene Woody, 13, of Holland, Arkansas
Date: December 3 to 4, 2002
Location: Faulkner County, Arkansas
Case: Online grooming, abduction, and murder; resolved as a murder-suicide

- The Yahoo Messenger chat room and the two boys, one real and one invented
- Fuller's reconnaissance trips, purchases, and paper trail
- The 9:41 p.m. silence and the friend in Georgia who raised the alarm
- The twenty-hour investigation that found the van
- The Kacie Woody Foundation and the FBI's Innocent Images program

The Kacie Woody case became the starting point for internet safety education in Arkansas and far beyond, carried forward by her father, a patrol officer who refused to let her story be meaningless.
