48 Hours: Cal and Michele Harris
48 Hours Mystery talked about the disappearance of Michele Harris this week, and the multiple trials Cal Harris has faced for Michele’s murder. So far, Cal Harris he been convicted twice of murdering Michele. However, both times, he managed to get the verdicts thrown out. It’s mind-boggling. He is facing his third trial this coming September.
Cal Harris is a wealthy and influential businessman in Owego, New York. No surprise.
Cal came forward on 48 Hours to talk about the case for the first time, yet ironically, he barred 48 Hours from openly asking questions. That’s interesting, don’t you think?
He limited the questions he would answer by Erin Moriarty and frankly, he didn’t say anything that gave us a reason to believe him.
Furthermore, I found it astounding that Cal doesn’t want answers. At the press conference held this March by Cal, if you notice in the poster that was displayed, “Her kids want answers”.
Isn’t that interesting?
It’s interesting on two fronts: Not only is Cal speaking and creating this poster on behalf of his children (which shows control by Cal that they aren’t doing this on their own–because Cal create it), it also doesn’t say “WE” want answers– meaning Cal isn’t seeking answers. He doesn’t seem to have a need to know who did this, does he? He thinks only his kids should want answers. Hmmm…. I think it was a pretty big slip, if you ask me.
I also wanted to state that I believe Michele’s boyfriend Brian Earley and the nanny Barbara Thayer.
I do not believe Kevin Tubbs at all. It took him six years to come up with his story? Unbelievable. But his words alone give me reason not to buy what he is saying.
Sad story all around. I believe Cal Harris knows exactly where Michele’s body is.
Interesting case… you don’t think that maybe this is a case of ‘gone girl’ … Michelle was no saint and was pretty messed up. I do enjoy reading your blogs … you make me think.
Cal Harris speaks after the third trial:

There’s an alarming lack of denial in his initial words after each verdict and release. Nothing like “they got it wrong, they got it right, etc.” This is not a good sign for him being innocent either, as far as his speech and method of thinking is concerned.
He also says, “The cops believe that it [the murder] took place inside the home. It didn’t.”
Oh my goodness!!
He was actually bragging in front of a television camera about the murder!!!!!!!
Third trial, hung jury. Ugh.
Agreed. This man is a poor liar and a rich defendant. So he wins, no matter how hard the jurors, DA’s office, family of the victim and the truth wants to prevail.
