Where Is Robert Fisher? Page #5

---

that helped pull him out.

For all we know, he could've

helped, gave him a ride.

If you leave Phoenix and

you wanna go to Payson,

there's only one way to go.

So you're driving up Highway 87.

You hit Rye, which is a

small little tiny town

before you get to Payson.

- There was a bartender

at the Rye diner.

She said a couple

came into the bar.

A gentleman walked in.

A woman that came in with him

immediately went

to the restroom.

He came up and ordered a drink.

Once he orders this drink,

he steps away from the bar

and stands by, what's

a, there's a fireplace

across from the bar.

She says this man stood

and kept his face hidden

from everybody in the bar.

The woman came out

of the restroom,

and it seemed like they

were kind of arguing.

What was real interesting is,

I believe it was the next night,

we get a call from

somebody that lives in Rye.

Their doorbell is ringing.

It's a female that says

her boyfriend just,

they had an argument,

and he just dumped her.

And she needed to

call for a cab.

So they let her in.

Her description kinda

matched the Rye diner woman.

And see, and that's where

all this information came out

with Fisher having an affair.

- At one point in

their relationship,

we heard that he had an affair.

He confided in his church.

They told him that he needed

to confide in his wife.

They separated for a while.

They reconciled.

- About a year prior

to the murders,

he had gone to a masseuse

and allegedly contracted

a urinary tract disease

from the masseuse.

As their relationship

started going on,

she found out that he might

be having another affair.

Now how that affair she found

out, I'm not exactly sure.

But it almost appeared

to us like he was kinda

throwing it in her face.

- There's information

that he had told Mary,

"I had an affair."

- One of the things

that investigators

originally believed

was that there was a girlfriend

and that this woman was someone

who helped him get away.

They were never able

to confirm that.

Nobody in the workplace

was ever able to confirm

that there was some

sort of a workplace

romance going on.

- No one has any idea

who this person might be.

And then we go back to,

when we analyze who

Robert Fisher was.

Cocky, arrogant, conceited,

liked to talk about himself.

It's a very good likelihood that

maybe he just concocted it.

- I know that my

brother was unfaithful

one time in their marriage.

He had a back injury, and

he went to have a massage

and he fell into temptation.

Mary was gone at the time.

She came back, and my

brother confessed it to her.

And that's when they started

going through counseling.

The rumors that he was

unfaithful in other ways,

they're just rumors as

far as I'm concerned.

Their marriage suffered

greatly after that.

And I don't know if Mary ever

forgave my brother after that.

- As the years went by,

him and his wife fought.

And they fought a lot.

Now, to his credit,

he never really ever

raised his voice

or screamed at his wife.

It was always his wife doing

the screaming and yelling.

Calling him worthless, saying

she could've done better.

Now this happened

almost on a daily basis

for over a decade.

When him and his wife

would have an epic or just

a gigantic blowout, he'd

disappear for a week or two

or take a long weekend off

work and just go camping.

And he'd go out there

alone a lot of times.

He'd just take his dog.

- [Voiceover] Hello.

- [Robert] See you, Mom.

Be back Sunday morning.

- [Voiceover] Okay.

- [Robert] Here you go.

- [Brittany] Love you, Mom.

- [Voiceover] Love you, Mom.

I love you, Britt.

Hold my hand.

We'll take a picture

of Daddy drive away?

- [Brittany] Yeah.

- [Voiceover] Okay.

- The truck's gonna

be at Horse Pasture.

I'm gonna be fishing at the

Salt River arm of the lake.

- [Brittany] Oh.

- [Voiceover] Oh.

- [Brittany] Okay.

- [Voiceover] Okay.

- [Brittany] Bye, Dad.

- [Voiceover] Bye-bye.

- [Brittany] Love

Daddy (mumbles).

Bye!

- Mary was a very

good-hearted person.

But Mary wouldn't also

put up with a lot either.

We got information

that she was outspoken.

- Mary Fisher was complaining

to Robert's mother

by phone that he was sort

of this tough love husband,

and it was hard to please him,

and everything

had to be his way.

His mother told her

that it was the same way

when she was married

to Robert's father.

And it's just something

that you gotta deal with,

and you gotta be firm with him.

(dark ambient music)

- I think Mary finally

said, "Hey, enough!

We're done!"

And I don't think he

could deal with it.

- His general attitude

changed a lot over the years.

I mean he was a very

proud, sort of arrogant,

very confident person.

Years later in

their relationship,

when you'd see him on the street

or talk to him next door,

he was tired.

I mean, there was definitely

something different about him,

like he had a heavy

weight on his shoulder.

(eerie ambient music)

- When my parents divorced,

I was in sixth grade, my

brother was in high school,

and my older sister was out

of the house in college.

And yes, it affected all of us.

- With open hearts

He just delights in,

you should bring your

little children to Him,

and that you, his parents,

should come to Him

as little children.

We bring them in order

that He might bless them.

I think the primary way

is through mom and dad,

and through that, God plans

to bless your children.

Thus, to dedicate your children,

it seems proper that

you should choose then,

first of all, to dedicate

yourselves as well.

"As for me and my house,

we will serve the Lord."

(eerie ambient music)

- When his parents

divorced when he was young,

he went and grew

up with his father.

His father remarried a woman

who was very hard on him.

(eerie ambient music)

So in his eyes, he would

never do that to his kids.

And maybe it was,

rather than get divorced

and have his kids

raised by somebody else,

if his wife remarried,

he wanted to start all over.

- [Voiceover] Let's get a

shot of Dad in that suit.

- [Robert] Okay, Bobby.

(whistling)

I put a suit on

today for you, boy.

- [Voiceover] Look at Dad.

- [Robert] The next

time I'll put a suit

is at your high

school graduation.

Do you hear me all

you people out there?

- Divorce affects everybody

in all situations.

Whether or not you

can blame a murder on

a parent's divorce, I

don't think that's fair.

It did affect my

brother differently

than it affected me.

He always took marriage

very seriously.

If I was dating the

wrong type of person,

he would let me

know it, and say,

"Why are you dating

that person if

"it's not a person you

didn't intend on marrying?"

The divorce hurt me because

my parents were no

longer together.

And I did think twice about

getting married because of it.

(camera clicks)

But I would've

never thought that

divorce isn't an option

like my brother thought.
