00:00When I moved to Spain to study, I was an 18-year-old kid.
00:04I studied abroad in Sevilla.
00:07Sevilla, Sevilla.
00:08I really loved it.
00:10It was like an adventure.
00:12I was really excited by the whole thing
00:14and thinking about all the trips.
00:16Discover Excursions was recommended.
00:19And they emphasized safety.
00:21The main tour guide seemed like a nice guy.
00:23He was handsome.
00:24He knew everyone.
00:26A playful personality.
00:27We all were very vulnerable, and we didn't realize that.
00:32But Manuel saw it.
00:34The last night of the trip, he was like,
00:35oh, well, I can get champagne and we can all hang out in the room.
00:39I started getting really tired.
00:42I woke up the next morning.
00:43That's when I realized what had happened.
00:47The embassy said you shouldn't talk to anyone about this.
00:51Second he told me no, I was like, that's exactly what I'm going to do.
00:53I started building an investigation.
00:55The story just kept getting bigger.
00:57I went on the Today Show.
00:58I had no idea what I was involved in.
01:01I started shouting, it's him, it's him.
01:04A lot of people started reaching out to me.
01:06He had been doing this for years.
01:09And then I got a direct message on Facebook.
01:10It's a bad.
01:12And we knew that he had fallen out of the apartment of Manuel.
01:16It's terrifying.
01:17He started the trial against the tourist guide from Sevilla.
01:21I think he's a hunter, he's a hunter.
01:25He had a particular relationship with his customers.
01:28I couldn't have relationships with people.
01:30You feel like you were in the room with the devil.
01:32We thought that we would be quiet about it.
01:34If you were wrong, something has to change.
01:37This is just the beginning for him and me.
