Three years later, his older brother James was released. "Kidnapping was all about the money. When they arrested him he was busy selling the rights to the movie to some agent out of Hollywood. He has always been about the money. And these kids got in between him and money and whatever he had to do to get the money he would have done to those kids, including bury them alive," Moreno says.
