As you can see,
hardly an ideal upbringing.

(SCOFFS) To say the least.

Saw his father m*rder his mother

(EXHALES) Trauma like that at that age

chemically alters the brain.

It skews emotional reactions
into adulthood.

- After the murders,

his father went to prison
and Cross went into foster care.

Bounced around until he was about 16.

What happened at 16?

He moved in with Matt Tolan's family.

Before long, they were
committing armed robberies.

Files run pretty parallel

Bank was held up at 8:09 a.m.

Bodega robbery was reported at 9:27 a.m.,
