My wife a 26 years was basically murdered by a doctor and the hospitals st. Mary's denied her healthcare two times and the third time she went brain-dead I lost the woman that worked in the world trade center in the 80s and the reason why I married her because she was very smart but I know she was a kind heart and I'm sure she's in heaven with her mother God bless
The love and bond between sisters is something so strong. The fact the sister used her last days to testify against her sisters killer, that made me cry. I pray they’re reunited, and are in heaven together.
Not all sisters or kids or sons and moms. My mother cldnt stand to see me shine, so unbeknownst to me has been sabotaging me for 5 yrs. Long story but boils down she can't mentally construct how social media works and thinks it's a battle between everyone. This is a woman that stayed w my father who beat us, sad thing is she wld instigate the abuse. She did it for attention. So many dark secrets. Sad and has affected me . Love everyone, is all i can say.
@@illumination101 I am really sorry how things turned out for you. I hope the rest of your days are as the path of the sun from dawn...shining ever so brighter like the perfect noon day without clouds
@@bambinaforever1402 she saw the emails and then had someone look up the ip address because she knew something wasn’t right and then gave that info to police, so yes loving sister. It’s easy to miss something like emails but she went back and checked. If she didn’t care she wouldn’t have checked. She went and spoke even a few days before passing away. That’s love.
@@bambinaforever1402 So after watching this video, the victims sister thinks she may have overlooked an email (which could mean anything, maybe the email went into a spam folder, she could have marked it as "read" by mistake, ANYTHING could've happened) and because of this, you feel that she wasn't a loving sister? She literally fought tooth and nail to find the answer to what happened to her sister. She testified KNOWING how hard it was going to be for her, she even passed out because it took so much out of her. She fought for her sister until her dying day....I don't know how you could even question her being a loving sister. How disrespectful..
It’s so absolutely tragic that those poor parents had to lose two daughters. My heart broke for them. I am so happy that her sister got to say her piece.
women marry CONVICTED serial killers..it's crazy, I mean chris watts is getting love letters right now, he should have been executed yet he's living off our tax dollars and thinking up ways to escape, he might even have another child, it's happened
She’s delusional like what makes her think he wont do the same to her if they ever get into a big fight one day? She’s as sick as her husband to still be with him after knowing he literally butchered an innocent woman up. Sick fks
Michelle spending her last moments avenging her sister, is the shining example of sheer determination, strength and fortitude despite her ailing health. Bryan Brimmager really took both sisters away, and he deserves to rot in prison for eternity. RIP Yvonne and Michelle, the Baldellis sisters might be gone but they're far from shattered. May they rest in peace in heaven, they'll missed dearly. However for Kristen Workhoven who stills stands by her so damn guilty husband till today, showing her any compassion is such an insult to humanity, UGH!! This case sends chills down my spine, and it still makes me shiver until now. Beware ladies, keep your eyes peeled before it's all too late!!
I don't think it's soap. Equating concern and encouraging women to be mindful with soap is an insult. Normally we don't go around searching for all things negative and red flags. But it seems in this day and age, that isy what is needed. Here we've got to a point where the wife - become so under dubious circumstances, plays ostrich politics - ie denial. Burying head in sand. It seems she is not disturbed by harbouring, sleeping with a calculating murderer and liar. Without regard for her own child. Very disturbing lack of morality
@@y2k029 I wonder why he wanted a child so badly. Because he wanted to pass on his strong moral values to the next generation? With a woman who is an equally valuable person with a stubbornly implanted moral vertical? That's honestly sick.
Its so sad that Michelle passed away from cancer. I mean I seriously cant imagine going through all of that and then losing another child. My heart goes out to the whole family
He was only sentenced to 24 years! How is this justice? Ugh, he should be serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole. Rest In Peace, beautiful sisters. Prayers for the parents of these two women. 🙏
I think he probably struck a deal with the prosecution. No amount of sentencing would have compensated for his crime anyway. Hope he shows some remorse and stop harming society.
I know, I didn't expect to cry, but when they showed her in her last days then said she passed away a few days later, I lost it! The poor dad and step mom, that clearly loved those girls, just breaks my heart. So horrible!
God Bless Yvonne, who was savagely killed, and God Bless her incredible Sister Michelle, with terminal cancer, made it to court to the deposition. She knew her last duty on this Earth was to get to that deposition. I can’t believe she passed just days later! Wow. I pray they are reunited! ❤💫
Oh God, seeing Michelle like that after she got cancer was gut wrenching. I cried like a little baby. This family had so much love for each other, it is sad that they were faced with so many struggles
Same. I didn't expect it, and didn't expect it to make me so emotional. She was such a strong person so it was really hard seeing her so physically weak. God bless her and her mental and emotional strength.
God cancer is terrifying. It takes seeing something like her sister decorate soo fast for it to hit home. I've never known anyone personally who have had it. I only know what I see on TV but, wow, that's soo scary.
This is one of the most heartbreaking story I ever came across , human cruelty , an innocent family pain of losing two daughters, my deepest prayers to this family
Why does his wife support him when he pleaded guilty & blood evidence etc?? Those types of women I’ll never understand. To side with a vicious killer over an innocent victim.
The fact that she still kept the fight on for her sister, inspite of fighting for her own life, tell us quite a lot about her. May her soul rest in peace.
Apart from the sister being an absolute hero, the mother is awesome too. She was her step mother and literally nobody could tell that she loved her any less. Beautiful family but stuck by too many tragedies.
Honestly, I thought it was her biological mother! I kept looking for some of the mother's features in her face and just thought... maybe the chin? Her skin tone does look a little darker than plain "white"? 💚 but I love that I couldn't tell by her love! That's how a step parent should be!
Damn, seeing the before and after of Michelle's cancer within a 3-month period really reminded me of my brother. It's crazy how aggressive and fast moving certain forms of cancer are. My bro went from working and moving like any of us to bedridden within months. He died in under a year. Rest in peace both of you.
Just reading this triggered me. My aunt had stage 4 ovarian cancer for 4 years. I think I'd rather die sooner than later than suffer like she did. It's sad either way. I'm sorry for your loss.
I know… my family was reeling from my one brother’s diagnosis of Lou Gerhig’s disease, and our older brother ..boom.. got diagnosed with cancer and was dead in 10 weeks!! Shockingly sad..losing a sibling is harder than I ever imagined.. ❤
Mrs. Faust was my French teacher in high school years ago. She was always so full of life and happy. One of the best teachers I’ve ever had. I am so heartbroken to see the pain her and her family are going and gone through. The sadness in her eyes is hurtful to see.
@@timmyshore3755 is it so unbelievable that this mother is a teacher ? She s speaking spanish i0n the video. Would be more convincable to say she was my teacher spanish right? That is for those who think ppl need validation from unknown ppl. Let me tell u. It is 100 % possible any student ( any and these are millions or more) see this video. Thank you
I can't believe his "wife" still stands by him!! Like wth?!! The guy left her to go live far away from her with another woman. And once he kills her, moves back in with you like nothing... Doesn't she realize that it could happen to her too??!... Hopefully not.
His wife is putting herself in such a denial and “prison of her own “. There’s a whole new life beyond her husband who is a killer . What future would you have with such a person who gets out in 2037? He never confessed and owned up to his evil . Why would he ever change? Prayers for her to find true happiness and healthy for her daughter .
The wife is just as cold and heartless as this murderer. She continues to stand by him knowing what he did?! She'll get hers as soon as this beast is released from prison.
I can't remember what case it was, but I remember a similar case where the wife had said something like "he killed her to be with me so that makes me love him more". Maybe this lady is also that sick and deluded. Some people can justify anything when they think they've "won".
Me too! UGH. I was cool listening to the story; they mentioned cancer, my heart dropped. But the moment they showed her in court looking so weak and sick and knowing she would have yanked hospital tubes off her to be in that courtroom and the fact that she passed out right after giving testimony and then died not long after the verdict~COMPLETELY SHATTERED ME! Just finished a whole Kleenex box, UGH. 😢 I know for sure that she somehow held on to see that day come to pass and after that day, her work here on earth was done and she was now ready to go on and be with that sister she so dearly loved! 💔💔💔 Literally, this case was solved BECAUSE OF HER SISTER, plain and simple, no doubt. This broke me like the story of that lady who relocated to Mexico and found herself a cute lil’ hubby with a sombrero in tow, and big ranch; perfect for her. They were doing so well and were happy, then her hubby was randomly kidnapped one day! Lord knows that man was tortured (from pics sent by the abductors and ofcourse what he later recounted to her. He was gone for like a year or two which was also daily torture for her as well. She did EVERYTHING to try and “save him/ get him back!She sold just about every single asset she had including borrowing against her house to also pay private investigators to try and help her find him. All the while, continuing to try and pay off his abductors who continued to ask for more money She then FINALLY found him! Less than 100 pounds later, and very unrecognizable, she nursed him back to health. So now they finally were going to go into the sunset and live happily ever after (in the U.S. this time) right? Wrong. She gets cancer not long after this whole debacle and then dies! 💔💔💔 (Can’t remember her name but that story broke me as did this one!)
The second they said the sister died too, I busted out crying. I can’t even imagine what this family went through-losing both girls. Absolutely devastating.
26 years just doesn't seem like enough. Much respect to everyone involved in holding this coward accountable. Your determination and many sacrifices are honorable. Rip sisters.
Men get much lighter prison sentences for murdering their partner than vice versa - even when they were battered women so it's self-defense. One man who murdered his wife while on a family vacation with their 2 young children got a mere 9 years!!!
The stress from knowing her sister was murdered could have been a huge factor in Michelle's diagnosis. Such love and tenacity for her sister.. she fought for justice to the end. RIP sweet girls.. you are together now in the great beyond.❤️❤️
If they knew the Lord Jesus Christ and had put their faith in Christ as the Son of God who died on a cross as our sacrifice for our sins and rose again from the dead, yes they are with the Lord in Heaven. Only through Jesus Christ can you enter the gates of heaven for the gate is narrow that leads to heaven and that gate is Christ.
@@likenl4508 Or maybe let others express sympathy for these poor young women who passed away before their time without bringing your fearmongering into it.
The sister testifying till she passed out due to her weakened state made me tear up 🥺 This kind of love is what makes me think sometimes that humanity might not be doomed after all ❤️
Oh, I agree. We see so many horrible people & forget that the vast majority of humanity is beautiful, like Michelle, who gave to Yvonne her last full measure of devotion. ❤
This entire case is so tragic....from losing your sister in such a horrific way to being diagnosed with cancer and given days to live....I don't even have the words
Undoubtedly, any symptoms she had, she could have waved off, easily, as just stress, anxiety, and lack of sleep over her sister. 😢 Rest in peace to both of them.
This broke my heart 💔 I've buried one of my daughters and it nearly killed me.. I couldn't even imagine losing 2 daughters 😭 I'm sending the family so much love ❤️🙏 Know that your beautiful girls are together in Heaven 🤍
My dad left my mom, me and my 5 siblings ! I was entering college and my younger sisters were about 15 years old. My younger sister was almost trafficked, if it wasn't for my sister who's gut instincts kicked in and tracked down the man that had her captured, she wouldn't be alive. The love of a sister is like NO OTHER. I'm so happy these sisters loved each other so much. Michelle is a hero.
@@Km01522 a dad is security and protection for a family. By all standards and cultures. That’s why! Can’t believe you can’t make that inference …a dad who abandons his kids is a coward and a flake.
Dr Berg, I’m. A 63 yo Family Nurse Practitioner. I enjoy your lectures most of all. Last year I completed surgery, chemotherapy and radiation for stage 3 breast cancer. I can’t tolerate the hormone blockers. The side effects are just too devastating for me. I have watched all of your videos. I am taking all of your nutritional advice to the “T” including fasting. I take a bunch of supplements….everyone you have said helps make your body more resilient against cancer. Now you are inspiring me to get more active. Thank you sooooo much! I have a Masters Degree in Science so I’m picky about who I listen to. You quote studies and I read them :) You are the best! You are greatly appreciated
I broke down and cried when I found out the death of Michelle. What a beautiful human being and the love she had for her sister and the bravery. Hope those sisters can reunite again somewhere somehow.
So this guy lies, cheats, murders, AND is unemployed while his new wife works? How do these evil monsters always seem to find the cushy life at the expense of the women who support them? And I definitely got misty-eyed when Michelle gave her final deposition. She was an amazing woman and the type of sister we all would be lucky to have.
I could not hold back tears. I'm so glad her sister, Michelle, was able to testify and bring some justice for her sister. I hope she is resting in sweet peace and she was able to see her sister again in heaven.
The bond between siblings is so strong that nobody can break it. It's Amazing how her sister stood up for her until the day she passed away. At least she is back with her sister in heaven. May God watch over her family and help them to heal.
Journo: chases down and harasses a random citizen about a crime they may or may not have committed Same journo: won't chase down and harass politicians who absolutely committed crimes on national television You people applaud this?
I'm so glad she was able to come home. It's so rare, especially when the killer uses a swamp to conceal a victim's body. I hope her and her sister found each other on the other side.
To loose both of your children in such horrific ways is unimaginable. Words cannot express how deeply sorry I am for this family to have to endure this…..parents should never outlive all of their children.
This made me cry. This monster cheated, abused, and killed a beautiful woman. Her family especially her sister are heroes. I hope the family is doing better but I can't imagine the pain.
Lol. The relationship was almost certainly mutually abusive. And she chose him. It's amusing how society views women as children unaccountable for their actions.
My heart breaks for this family. It's also upsetting that he only got 26 years when he was planning on taking that disgusting act to the grave. This man should've gotten life for the torture he put that family and his own family through.
The story of the sister is very emotional. As someone with siblings I couldn't imagine going thru something like the sister did and the fact that even as her day's were numbered she still gave every little bit she had left. As for the Guy who was a vet goes to show that not every veteran deserves praise.
Someone had to Fight for her to make sure he went to Prison. They were Close. Remember Yvonne was emailing her very often keeping her up to date with her life.
I've been watching 48 Hours for a while now, and I've seen a lot of sadness in many families, but this is by far, the most touching out of all of them, and reasons being, the selfless act and the courage of Yvonne's loving sister Michelle.
Major s|o to her sister for never stopping her loyalty to her sister. Even in death she still had her back. True sisterhood. I pray and know they’re reunited together 💕💕
Oh, ...he knows, he just doesn't care. Psychopath or Sociopath, not sure which, but it's obvious he has NO Empathy, he feels Entitled, has a Huge Ego. It's hard to imagine people like this.
So glad they got him!! So glad for the family that her body was found and they could mourn. Sadly he is getting out too soon! So sad for the sister who fought well, but thrilled for her she helped nail her sister's killer!The family fought to the end for justice and won!!
Michelle and Yvonne had a special bond and genuine unconditional sisterly love. It was horribly sad to see Michelle just perish away so so damn quickly. Without her persistent efforts to find her baby sister, I think Yvonne would still be buried in that swamp. My condolences to this beautiful family, and especially to both sisters who’ve been happily reunited once again. Job well done to the FBI, State Dept., Costa Rica, local volunteers, etc.. Kudos!!!’
This story was so devestating and I'm glad Michelle saw some justice before she passed. Watching Peter walk side-by-side with Brian outside the grocery store throwing such pointed questions at him was beautlful. Love Peter's confidence and tenacity.
So let me get this straight. The other woman didn't mind knowing she was a side chick who got knocked up and abandoned so long as he eventually married her. She didn't mind finding out that he murdered his long term girlfriend before he decided her as an option for him and she doesn't mind showing how gutless she is to stand by his side awaiting him to be released in 2037.
Yep. There are wacko like this. We had a case in Brazil similar to this. The dude was married and had the side 1. His wife discovered his cheating and wanted a divorce. He removed her from earth. Side 1 knew of this and run away with him. No self preservation at all. Then, the dude found a Side 2 in the new city they were living. Side 1, then his new wife, found out and wanted to leave him. He removed her from earth as well. At least, he got arrested for it though.
My heart goes out to the surviving family members and loved ones of Yvonne. It is heartbreaking that her sister passed away from cancer, but at least she was able to be her sister’s voice and confront Yvonne’s killer before she passed away. Rest in peace Michelle and Yvonne. 💗
I love my sister like that. I'm so lucky to have my sister. She's the best person in the world. If a man ever put a hand on her , he'd have to leave the planet if he wanted to live.
Some families place such importance on their daughter having a man ,anyman . Alot of red flags in this story . Anybody who wants to isolate you from your loved ones ,anyone who has a drinking problem . Anyone in the military
@@rottweilerfun9520 ppl who have loving siblings are so lucky, just like the comment below states, I would rather have had and have true loving family that some man just cuz (most) society says it's the norm.
R.I.P to both sisters my heart breaks for their family. I’m glad they got justice. It’s sad they had to bury two children, no parent should have to bury their children.
I have been watching crime documentaries of all sorts for more than 20years and I do believe this is the 1st one to bring tears to my eyes.💔🥺 May the families of Yvonne and Michelle be given a peace that surpasses human understanding.. My heart melts for you, you are in my prayers. Sisters (Yvonne & Michelle) may your spirits dance together forever in heaven, in Jesus mighty name, amen.🙏🏽❤️💕💖😘
From all the pain and anger experienced by this bloke, the way the family still managed to continue to act graceful and dignified throughout was truly amazing! I couldn't have!
an afterthought... there is no compensation that can be afforded to the victim's relatives, there is only the consolation that comes from the caging of a murderous brute for the remainder of their life, so that they are never again able to live freely as a self-deterministic agent. Sadly this murderous brute will be out on parole, indecently too soon.
I suspect that wife of his know more than she lets on. Her loyalty to him is otherwise unexplainable to me. My heart goes out to the parents of these two beautiful daughters.
I wonder if she’s just trying to hold on to the image she had of him, and them as a family. I’m giving her a small benefit of the doubt that maybe she’s unable to truly process all that happened. He literally had her waiting while planning to get rid of the woman he was with. He was abusive and extremely self centered. Those kind of people tend to know exactly what’s needed to manipulate people and situations.
That family has had way too much heartache than one deserves… I’m glad her sister was able to get answers and some sort of justice for her sister before she passed away
How about the first time anyone male or female hit you you end the relationship? Only problem with that is if they're married parting gifts and children along with child support HEAVILY favor women. Tell me I'm lying.
Most loving sister I’ve seen I hope she’s resting peacefully EDIT: I’m angry he confessed after the fact her sister passed away she deserved that closure 100% now there together 🕊
This episode broke my heart in so many ways. He could have just left Yvonne and returned to the US, and let her live out her life !!! The sister, Michelle was the fighting force behind bringing justice, and she fought till the very end of her life. I cried from my heart for her. RIP Yvonne and Michelle, my heart goes out to all the family !! As for the wife........I cannot even begin to understand how she stands by him !!!!!
My heart aches for Michelle. What a courageous woman, a fighter. I loved in the deposition that she called his outfit tacky. She wasn’t intimidated by him at all.
Rest easy Michelle! You were a brave and beautiful woman who's love for her sister is the most inspiring thing I've witnessed in a long time! You will forever be known as the hero that you were! Hope you and your sister can watch beautiful beach sunsets in the next life.
The stress of all the trauma, lies, stress, not knowing is what brought on her sisters cancer. STRESS IS A SILENT KILLER!! He is just as responsible for HER death as well as he is the reason she had to exert every ounce of her last remaining strength to avenge her sister. THAT is a deep sisterly ❤️
37:55 “This might be the last thing I get to do for her! Over and over again b/c it’ll be on camera forever!” A sister’s love! R.I.P. Yvonne and Michelle.
I'm not arguing for the defense... But did they get an opportunity to cross-examine her? I mean, don't get me wrong: Brimager is the worst of low-lifes; and probably deserves life, if not a death sentence! 😡 But she had to testify outside of court, due to her illness (understandable). It just seems that if his lawyer(s) _didn't_ get that chance (I was curious why they didn't show any of that on the clip), they could argue her testimony was inadmissible--which would've been a disaster for all.
Michelle you are the best. I send you love and light to heaven where you are. Please let her and her sister be happy together in paradise. She is a warrior and I was like that with my sister. I love her so much even though she's been gone 15 years. What an amazing spirit Michelle is.
This 48 hour episode made me cry. For so many reasons. 26 years in jail is a joke. And wife still loves him ,wtf. Rest in peace young lady and sister. Thank you f.b.i. and everyone involved
I remember seeing this story years ago & it's the tenacity of her sister that I remembered. I would go just as hard for my family. I hope they are together again & at peace.
This is heartbreaking! The sister fought fir her sister to the very end! Although they are no longer here, I know they were reunited in spirit. If u look in Brian's eyes you can see the evil.
Dang. The sister dying and with all she had left in her testifying made me cry. I'm a stage 4 cancer survivor, and i don't know how someone like me gets to live, and someone like her gets taken away. She is now with her sister. 😢

I like how Peter van Sant always acts surprised that none of the suspects he approaches on the show ever want speak to him
Watch a couple of Crime Watch episodes with Chris Hansen. Those reporters are nuts!
I always find this such a strange tactic. As if ANY suspect is gonna speak to a journalist holding a camera. Even if they're innocent, they shouldn't

However for Kristen Workhoven who stills stands by her so damn guilty husband till today, showing her any compassion is such an insult to humanity, UGH!!

I don't think it's soap. Equating concern and encouraging women to be mindful with soap is an insult. Normally we don't go around searching for all things negative and red flags. But it seems in this day and age, that isy what is needed. Here we've got to a point where the wife - become so under dubious circumstances, plays ostrich politics - ie denial. Burying head in sand. It seems she is not disturbed by harbouring, sleeping with a calculating murderer and liar. Without regard for her own child.
Very disturbing lack of morality
@@saciji yes 100% agreed... maybe she has no confidence in herself or can't do any better than her murderer husband.. just saying
@@y2k029
I wonder why he wanted a child so badly. Because he wanted to pass on his strong moral values to the next generation? With a woman who is an equally valuable person with a stubbornly implanted moral vertical? That's honestly sick.
Its so sad that Michelle passed away from cancer. I mean I seriously cant imagine going through all of that and then losing another child. My heart goes out to the whole family
He was only sentenced to 24 years! How is this justice? Ugh, he should be serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole. Rest In Peace, beautiful sisters. Prayers for the parents of these two women. 🙏
Because he pled guilty and showed remorse? That's how it usually works.
@@sandrabentley8111 that psycho never showed remorse. He’s only sorry he got caught!
I think he probably struck a deal with the prosecution. No amount of sentencing would have compensated for his crime anyway. Hope he shows some remorse and stop harming society.
Agree a 100% !!

Thinking about their parents losing BOTH daughters breaks my heart💔 😭
I know, I didn't expect to cry, but when they showed her in her last days then said she passed away a few days later, I lost it! The poor dad and step mom, that clearly loved those girls, just breaks my heart. So horrible!
Me too!!
Such a beautiful woman😰❗️ I hope they hang him up high 👿🤢👊❗️
God Bless Yvonne, who was savagely killed, and God Bless her incredible Sister Michelle, with terminal cancer, made it to court to the deposition. She knew her last duty on this Earth was to get to that deposition. I can’t believe she passed just days later! Wow. I pray they are reunited! ❤💫
That broke me
Oh God, seeing Michelle like that after she got cancer was gut wrenching. I cried like a little baby. This family had so much love for each other, it is sad that they were faced with so many struggles
I was not expecting that.
Cancer is a nasty beast! It has taken so many of my family members.
Same. I didn't expect it, and didn't expect it to make me so emotional. She was such a strong person so it was really hard seeing her so physically weak. God bless her and her mental and emotional strength.
God cancer is terrifying. It takes seeing something like her sister decorate soo fast for it to hit home. I've never known anyone personally who have had it. I only know what I see on TV but, wow, that's soo scary.
Deteriorate
This is one of the most heartbreaking story I ever came across , human cruelty , an innocent family pain of losing two daughters, my deepest prayers to this family
Why does his wife support him when he pleaded guilty & blood evidence etc?? Those types of women I’ll never understand. To side with a vicious killer over an innocent victim.
What about females that get their men straight from prison?🙄
Right?! I'd understand if she thought he was innocent but in this case ?!

Life without parole is what the monster deserves.
Thats a criminal sentence from a pos judge who was probably a former marine so he was lenient on this scumbag.
it's because the crime was not commited in US soil, he was sentenced only to 26 years in prison, he'll probably do 15 and will be out

God. Michelle’s passing was so hard to witness. Seeing her healthy and then seeing her in a wheelchair was brutal.
It really was 😞
The fact that she still kept the fight on for her sister, inspite of fighting for her own life, tell us quite a lot about her. May her soul rest in peace.
Michelle, bless her beautiful soul 😢 RIP praying for this entire family 🙏❤
Thats life
So shocking 🥺💔
Apart from the sister being an absolute hero, the mother is awesome too. She was her step mother and literally nobody could tell that she loved her any less. Beautiful family but stuck by too many tragedies.
Honestly, I thought it was her biological mother! I kept looking for some of the mother's features in her face and just thought... maybe the chin? Her skin tone does look a little darker than plain "white"? 💚 but I love that I couldn't tell by her love! That's how a step parent should be!
Wow! I had no clue she was her step mother. Yeah! She definitely loved and cared for her as her own.. Love that! Rest In Peace Yvonne 💔💔❤️
C go lcw❤❤❤ in on😂❤😂
Exactly
Damn, seeing the before and after of Michelle's cancer within a 3-month period really reminded me of my brother. It's crazy how aggressive and fast moving certain forms of cancer are. My bro went from working and moving like any of us to bedridden within months. He died in under a year. Rest in peace both of you.
Sorry for your loss.. I also saw my dad change and deteriorate in three months fighting cancer
So sorry to hear of your loss. That is tough. Until we see our loved ones again.
Just reading this triggered me. My aunt had stage 4 ovarian cancer for 4 years. I think I'd rather die sooner than later than suffer like she did. It's sad either way. I'm sorry for your loss.
I am so sorry as well.
I know… my family was reeling from my one brother’s diagnosis of Lou Gerhig’s disease, and our older brother ..boom.. got diagnosed with cancer and was dead in 10 weeks!! Shockingly sad..losing a sibling is harder than I ever imagined.. ❤
BEST sister a person could ever have!! RIP to both innocent women.
100% R.I.P to two special women.
What an incredible story! The sister testifies just days before dying of cancer. Heartbreaking, but justice was served.
God gave her enough days to witness his trial and testify before she joins her sister in heaven

I can't believe his "wife" still stands by him!! Like wth?!! The guy left her to go live far away from her with another woman. And once he kills her, moves back in with you like nothing... Doesn't she realize that it could happen to her too??!... Hopefully not.
They are both deserving of each other
His wife is putting herself in such a denial and “prison of her own “. There’s a whole new life beyond her husband who is a killer . What future would you have with such a person who gets out in 2037? He never confessed and owned up to his evil . Why would he ever change? Prayers for her to find true happiness and healthy for her daughter .
She a nasty b%%** for that. Smhhh ineanr
I think maybe the wife already knew what he had done from the beginning.
Trauma bonding or she’s a sociopath too
The wife is just as cold and heartless as this murderer. She continues to stand by him knowing what he did?! She'll get hers as soon as this beast is released from prison.
We can only pray, she exudes bad energy!
I can't remember what case it was, but I remember a similar case where the wife had said something like "he killed her to be with me so that makes me love him more". Maybe this lady is also that sick and deluded. Some people can justify anything when they think they've "won".
Women are stupid and have bad judgement, over and over. They marry cons in the prison itself; even mass murderers.
Poor baby girl of those two sicko
💯💯💯
This episode WRECKED me. RIP Yvonne and thank you to 48 hours for such a moving portrait and testimony of Michelle and the power of sisterhood.
Same here. Made me think of Laci Peterson.
Me too! UGH. I was cool listening to the story; they mentioned cancer, my heart dropped. But the moment they showed her in court looking so weak and sick and knowing she would have yanked hospital tubes off her to be in that courtroom and the fact that she passed out right after giving testimony and then died not long after the verdict~COMPLETELY SHATTERED ME!
Just finished a whole Kleenex box, UGH. 😢
I know for sure that she somehow held on to see that day come to pass and after that day, her work here on earth was done and she was now ready to go on and be with that sister she so dearly loved! 💔💔💔
Literally, this case was solved BECAUSE OF HER SISTER, plain and simple, no doubt.
This broke me like the story of that lady who relocated to Mexico and found herself a cute lil’ hubby with a sombrero in tow, and big ranch; perfect for her. They were doing so well and were happy, then her hubby was randomly kidnapped one day! Lord knows that man was tortured (from pics sent by the abductors and ofcourse what he later recounted to her. He was gone for like a year or two which was also daily torture for her as well. She did EVERYTHING to try and “save him/ get him back!She sold just about every single asset she had including borrowing against her house to also pay private investigators to try and help her find him. All the while, continuing to try and pay off his abductors who continued to ask for more money She then FINALLY found him!
Less than 100 pounds later, and very unrecognizable, she nursed him back to health. So now they finally were going to go into the sunset and live happily ever after (in the U.S. this time) right? Wrong. She gets cancer not long after this whole debacle and then dies! 💔💔💔 (Can’t remember her name but that story broke me as did this one!)
Maybe you should stop watching this show if you get that emotional over someone you didn’t know.
I love how these episodes are formatted. It has enough details in a compact format. Thank you for posting these.
This broke me so badly, but it's so inspiring the dedication she had for her sister. She literally lived for her. Best sister ever!!!
The second they said the sister died too, I busted out crying. I can’t even imagine what this family went through-losing both girls. Absolutely devastating.
So did I 😢 , my tears are dripping now .
Absolutely devastating! May they both rest in eternal peace 🥹

This entire case is so tragic....from losing your sister in such a horrific way to being diagnosed with cancer and given days to live....I don't even have the words
The trauma made her sick. I know it’s not possible to prove but similar to how ppl die of broken hearts. He is responsible for both.
Undoubtedly, any symptoms she had, she could have waved off, easily, as just stress, anxiety, and lack of sleep over her sister. 😢
Rest in peace to both of them.

Lol. The relationship was almost certainly mutually abusive. And she chose him.
It's amusing how society views women as children unaccountable for their actions.

My heart breaks for this family. It's also upsetting that he only got 26 years when he was planning on taking that disgusting act to the grave. This man should've gotten life for the torture he put that family and his own family through.
He should have gotten the gas chamber..such evil so he' will be in his 70s when he gets out..not fair.

The story of the sister is very emotional. As someone with siblings I couldn't imagine going thru something like the sister did and the fact that even as her day's were numbered she still gave every little bit she had left. As for the Guy who was a vet goes to show that not every veteran deserves praise.
Someone had to Fight for her to make sure he went to Prison. They were Close. Remember Yvonne was emailing her very often keeping her up to date with her life.
I've been watching 48 Hours for a while now, and I've seen a lot of sadness in many families, but this is by far, the most touching out of all of them, and reasons being, the selfless act and the courage of Yvonne's loving sister Michelle.

So let me get this straight. The other woman didn't mind knowing she was a side chick who got knocked up and abandoned so long as he eventually married her. She didn't mind finding out that he murdered his long term girlfriend before he decided her as an option for him and she doesn't mind showing how gutless she is to stand by his side awaiting him to be released in 2037.
Apparently not… Hey, it’s only 14 more years! 🎉😂😂
His wife has absolutely no character…
Yep. There are wacko like this. We had a case in Brazil similar to this. The dude was married and had the side 1. His wife discovered his cheating and wanted a divorce. He removed her from earth.
Side 1 knew of this and run away with him. No self preservation at all.
Then, the dude found a Side 2 in the new city they were living. Side 1, then his new wife, found out and wanted to leave him. He removed her from earth as well.
At least, he got arrested for it though.
Unfortunately, there are alot of women like her
It's tons of men and women like her out here.. they don't or can't love themselves so they look for others to show them what they may think is love.
My heart goes out to the surviving family members and loved ones of Yvonne. It is heartbreaking that her sister passed away from cancer, but at least she was able to be her sister’s voice and confront Yvonne’s killer before she passed away. Rest in peace Michelle and Yvonne. 💗
My heart breaks for the parents but my God, the love between these two sisters…. I pray they are reunited.
I love my sister like that. I'm so lucky to have my sister. She's the best person in the world. If a man ever put a hand on her , he'd have to leave the planet if he wanted to live.

From all the pain and anger experienced by this bloke, the way the family still managed to continue to act graceful and dignified throughout was truly amazing! I couldn't have!
26 years for a precious beautiful life... that hardly seems like fair compensation. Peace to Yvonne and to Michelle
an afterthought... there is no compensation that can be afforded to the victim's relatives, there is only the consolation that comes from the caging of a murderous brute for the remainder of their life, so that they are never again able to live freely as a self-deterministic agent. Sadly this murderous brute will be out on parole, indecently too soon.
26 years definitely was not enough! He should've gotten life.
In a way, he is guilty of killing both sisters, because stress, constant extreme stress can play a big role in getting cancer!
One of the most gut and heart wrenching cases I've heard
I suspect that wife of his know more than she lets on. Her loyalty to him is otherwise unexplainable to me. My heart goes out to the parents of these two beautiful daughters.
I wonder if she’s just trying to hold on to the image she had of him, and them as a family. I’m giving her a small benefit of the doubt that maybe she’s unable to truly process all that happened. He literally had her waiting while planning to get rid of the woman he was with. He was abusive and extremely self centered. Those kind of people tend to know exactly what’s needed to manipulate people and situations.
That family has had way too much heartache than one deserves… I’m glad her sister was able to get answers and some sort of justice for her sister before she passed away
The first time a man hits you, is the day you must defend yourself, and you must end the relationship. 😢🤕

RIP to Yvonne, the dog, and th⁰e amazing sister Michelle 💔 literally heart shattering
To know that her sister died fighting for justice for her sister breaks my heart
My heart aches for Michelle. What a courageous woman, a fighter. I loved in the deposition that she called his outfit tacky. She wasn’t intimidated by him at all.
I thought she said "khaki" 🤷🏽♀️
Rest easy Michelle! You were a brave and beautiful woman who's love for her sister is the most inspiring thing I've witnessed in a long time! You will forever be known as the hero that you were! Hope you and your sister can watch beautiful beach sunsets in the next life.
The stress of all the trauma, lies, stress, not knowing is what brought on her sisters cancer. STRESS IS A SILENT KILLER!!
He is just as responsible for HER death as well as he is the reason she had to exert every ounce of her last remaining strength to avenge her sister. THAT is a deep sisterly ❤️
It does effects whole nervous system
What a heartbreaking story. Her sister fought like a warrior to make sure he paid for what he did. Rip to both sisters.
37:55 “This might be the last thing I get to do for her! Over and over again b/c it’ll be on camera forever!” A sister’s love! R.I.P. Yvonne and Michelle.
I'm not arguing for the defense... But did they get an opportunity to cross-examine her?
I mean, don't get me wrong: Brimager is the worst of low-lifes; and probably deserves life, if not a death sentence! 😡 But she had to testify outside of court, due to her illness (understandable). It just seems that if his lawyer(s) _didn't_ get that chance (I was curious why they didn't show any of that on the clip), they could argue her testimony was inadmissible--which would've been a disaster for all.
Michelle you are the best. I send you love and light to heaven where you are. Please let her and her sister be happy together in paradise. She is a warrior and I was like that with my sister. I love her so much even though she's been gone 15 years. What an amazing spirit Michelle is.
This 48 hour episode made me cry. For so many reasons. 26 years in jail is a joke. And wife still loves him ,wtf. Rest in peace young lady and sister. Thank you f.b.i. and everyone involved
I remember seeing this story years ago & it's the tenacity of her sister that I remembered. I would go just as hard for my family. I hope they are together again & at peace.
This is absolutely heart wrenching! Michelle and Yvonne together in peace forever ❤
This is heartbreaking! The sister fought fir her sister to the very end! Although they are no longer here, I know they were reunited in spirit. If u look in Brian's eyes you can see the evil.
Dang. The sister dying and with all she had left in her testifying made me cry. I'm a stage 4 cancer survivor, and i don't know how someone like me gets to live, and someone like her gets taken away. She is now with her sister. 😢
Heartbreaking is an understatement. May the souls of the 2 righteous sisters rest in peace.
