The Betrayal of Molly Watson

- Опубликовано: 2 июл 2024
- In 2018, Molly Watson was happy. She was just about to marry her boyfriend of 7 years, her nail polish business was taking off, and life was on the up for this bubbly person. However, when her body was found beside her car on a lonely road, not everything was what she had thought.

"I can't marry you because I'm a two-timing scumbag who's still married to another woman."
You see how easy that was?
Women having terrible taste in men, what else is new.
@@BalboaBaggins you start this every thread
@@azurecielo52479 I think he has some unresolved maternal issues.
Not easy for someone not living in reality, apparently. Lol.
He didn't want her off with someone else. He also didn't want her talking and telling everyone he was a cheat. They worked together so he would have had to leave his job too. Sick selfish puppy.
Major props to the guy who found Molly and called 911-- he listened to his intuition and (bravely!) went back because he knew something wasn't right.
Why wasn't he able to identify James as the guy he spoke too first time around?
@@dalefc9331 Yeah, I don't get that. Did he not testify or what? Him positively identifying James would probably have squashed any remaining doubt.
@@dalefc9331 Could be lots of things. Maybe he was wearing a hoodie... Maybe he didn't turn around to look at the guy. Maybe the guy wasn't looking at his face. Who cares? The guy did it.
@@twizz420 `Corona mask? even out in nowhere. alone.
@@TheTitFlop not in 2018.
I am baffled by how many murders happen as a "solution" to ending a relationship. The lack of humanity someone must have to think that killing someone who loves and trusts you is the best option... it's astounding.
Exactly, but maybe easy to a narcissist.
Exactly we've all been in those first love high school love relationships even though you at the time feel so hurt I'd never kill someone because they wanted put of a relationship. Some people are just mentally crazy. Bullshit you love them if you kill them.
Right! Just ghost me. Fool just wants yo go to prison, I guess. You can easily leave a relationship in many cases unless the other person is a stalker or abusive.
Most homicides are domestic and committed by someone victim knew.
Seriously. DUDE JUST BREAK UP.
He hid a whole second life secret for 7 years, but he couldn't keep a murder secret for 30 minutes.
So glad , Molly gets some justice. He was- is a Narcissist, who kill just because he didn't want to face his shameful deeds. It all about HIM !!! Dam poor Molly and his loving family. What a greedy pig.
Right?! LOL
Hopefully this is the case for all murder crimes. I hope no blood goes wasted.
Great comment! Is it just me, or does he look like he's well into his sixties?

I'm cackling
Telling Molly his wife was dead implies, to me anyway, that he was always going to kill one of them and that the coin fell Molly's way. What a coward he is.
Seems to me she porbably found out he had a wife before, so he told her she had died recently so she would feel too bad to keep pressing the issue.
Totally agree - I feel like he was making his mind up right up to the very last minute. Maybe she pushed the issue - maybe this was his one night where he could do it. Who knows? But I agree that he was trying to figure out which one to kill right up to the end. Can you imagine how his wife must feel if she figured that out?
I agree. I see premeditation and manipulation. What a piece of work.
Women having terrible taste in men, what else is new.
Well said!! Weirdo!! Poor Molly... Very sad!
Something about seeing Molly's phone with the kitty stickers broke my heart
I know, so silly, joyful and nerdy...shows her personality...and we're reminded she was brutally murdered. Horrific.
+1
that bit got me too
Kittens are seen as innocent so that's how we see the person a little more. And she was innocent. It's awful such an amazing life was just snuffed out....
Same here. Then I felt angry. The best people get snuffed out, and the worst has us paying for the air they breathe for the rest of their lives in prison.
The guy that found Molly dead is lucky the perp did not murder him as well, considering it was on a lonely backwoods Missouri road at night.
I thought the same.... Maybe the coward can only kill women?
@@vegemitesandwich81 apparently it's often the case, lots of serial killers target women or children because they know they'll have a physical upper hand, too cowards to attack someone that'd be able to defend themselves
Absolutely. But no matter what happened, the killer seems to be dumb as a sack of hammers, no way he couldn't have been caught. Plus the defence lawyer in that 1880s style check pattern suit looked like a Disney cartoon villain!
Imagine how she must have felt, in those final moments, being murdered by the person she was so excited to marry. I can't imagine the heartbreak and terror she must have felt.
@@thecultofjohnnydelr.soulsw7010 Aren't you clever 🙄
"OH NO, I DIDN'T HIT MY WII FIT GOALS, HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN!"
Omg Angela she must have been terrified? Men like him deserve the death penalty!!!

That poor thing was murdered and left like trash on the side of the road? I normally can handle crime shows. But this hit me hard 😥
@@heathernikki5734
I know my psychotic personality types, obviously, once bitten twice shy, thrice gone.
And the confusion, I'd be like "but why?!"
I remember when this happened, I am a nail tech and a nail artist on IG, she was one of the indie creators in my community online. Her murder rocked us, her polishes went on a final sale and lots of people sold their polishes of hers to raise money for her funeral. So fucking sad.
I'm sorry for you, and all the peripheral people that are hurt by senseless murder.
Such a horrible situation. It was nice of the nail polish community to donate. Such a senseless crime 😞
She looked so talented and capable. So sorry
That’s really awesome everyone chipped in like that. Such a tragic situation. She was so in love too 😞
Dear Luka B: This gal should've spent more time checking out her BF, and less time selling nail polish online. I find it incredible that Molly and her BF spent 7 years together, yet no one in that small town of 12,000 clued her in about her BF being married all that time. In a small town like that, doesn't everyone usually know everyone else's business ??? And exactly where did this naive young lady think he was when he wasn't with her ??? There's something wrong with that picture. Furthermore, many years as a True Crime Fan has taught me that only a FOOL lets a stranger into their life, either as a serous romantic partner or as a business partner, without doing a background check on them first. If she had even done a Google Search on the guy, she should've come up with something suspicious. But a full online background check on anyone is as cheap as $30. It wasn't really her married BF that murdered Molly, but her Fantasy Life on the Internet instead, a Fantasy Life that took her Out Of The Reality of what was happening right under her nose in that small MO town. NO One deserves to be murdered, but some people are apparently smarter than others about how to avoid a situation that can get them murdered, and it seems that Molly was Naive and Clueless in that regard. It's Survival Of The Fittest in Cold "Dog Eat Dog" American Society, and it looks like Molly just wasn't Fit Enough to Survive.
I remember watching this trial. His daughter testified that the t shirt found at the scene was one of a kind. She had made it in a screen printing class and it had turned out badly and she gave it to her dad.
😮🙄
What a shock that would have been!
😲😲😲😲
Whenever you see a video of a person that you know is about to meet their demise you just want to jump into the frame and turn back time to change it for them. It's such a helpless feeling.
The way I feel too.
Exactly! I often pause the video as though it would somehow keep the person alive and safe. I know, stupid but still - these stories break my heart, especially the senseless ones that involve innocents.
Think about this guys....... With all the cameras n CCTV, everyone's last days, hours and minutes will be on film somewhere 😢
@@unapologetic3674 wow that’s an interesting thought, I’ve never considered that! Hopefully my demise is picturesque lol
I was just thinking this. Seeing her in her dress, excited to get married.....that's so sad
So just ending the affair and telling molly he was a piece of sh*t was impossible but killing her so he wouldn't have to marry her that was the best way to handle the situation!! I feel so sorry for his children and wife. Imagine getting a knock on the door from police just to find out your husband of over 2 decades not only is a cheater but also murder!! Disgusting
In cases similar to this (but where the cheater and killer DOES admit to their crime) they often claim they chose to kill rather than break up because they “didn’t want to put their love through the pain of a betrayal and broken heart”.
WHAT?!? How disgusting can someone be?! A person can heal from a broken heart and find love again. You can’t heal from *death*. Killing someone for such a reason is nothing but pure-evil selfishness. Whether the killers admit it to themselves or not; they were thinking “If I can’t have you, no one can” not “I loved you too much to bear hurting you emotionally”.
Maybe the killer doesn't see a difference between killing a dream and killing the person. Especially if the dream was something they'd wanted their whole life. Then again, most people don't really think things through....how do you think a correction officer gonna be doing in prison in Missouri? Yikes. Now everyone's dreams die. Stupid man...
I Never understand why people decide to murder a person rather than just walk away. They would rather not only destroy that person’s life but also their own (and their families) than just admit what a douchebag they truly are. So bizarre.
They’re normally narcissistic so think themselves much cleverer than they actually are!
This case was obvious he was gonna be caught, especially with the guy that saw him coming back cos he was acting suspicious? Was lucky the guy didn’t have number of his car, but saw make,model & colour?
Didn’t he think that was a tiny bit suspicious,never even arranged an alibi?
That very old chestnut
“ visited a friend but they were out” REALLY SOB!!
@Doree Everson--i'm with you as it baffles me, too, and the fact that whatever the murderer is trying to keep a secret by killing the person--an affair, or a love child, or even a bizarre fetish for eating human poop while wearing women's lingerie (remember Mark Redwine?)--ends up being blasted by the news agencies to even the remotest areas of the world, thus making the secret they killed to protect anything but secret. I almost wish they'd learn from previous people's mistakes and then,at least in that regard, an innocent person wouldn't have died for no apparent reason. RIP Molly.
Cowards. It's all about them not getting caught and shamed.
I would say especially those who took part in military campaigns, the real ones where they killed innocent people like this case where the real and the fak digital reality are confused!
@@Dabooshky what the hell dude?
Molly seemed to be a gentle soul. The world is a little more colder without her.

Love, your RUclips Grammar N. 😊
Gosh, even the defense attorney sounds like he's trying to convince HIMSELF that they didn't have the evidence he'd done it.
Most do
It's particularly painful when genuinely decent, kind-hearted people meet an end like this. Just heartbreaking.
Yes it is, mate!
It's so so sad, and also bewildering.
Like why, oh why was it necessary to kill or even hurt Molly? Just walk away you POS....don't hurt such a sweetheart, or anyone for that matter...
exactly....why my heart hurts for her.
As a brother to 3 younger sisters, you always have to instill that chances your first indications of boys is probably right. I’m not saying Molly did anything inherently wrong, but being with a guy for 7 years, you would wonder why he never invited you to stay over. She seemed like the sweetest. Hope she is geeking it up in heaven.
People who get killed aren't automatically "innocent", when will you every learn that?
@@daytractor8553 There were so many red flags but some people just cannot see them at all, and if you mentioned it they would think you are silly .It is not her fault she is naive but the murderer's fault. Unfortunately there are so many murders towards women by men that I assume all men are bad, and avoid being alone with them. I had a man offer me a lift the other day, as I had heavy shopping but immediately I said No. If I got in that car, who is to know if I would come out alive. If I said why I refused to get in the car, he would just say Oh not all men are like that. True, but it is safer to say No than take the risk of getting in a car with man who is a stranger. After all, his wanting to help you 'could be a ruse'. For many of us women, trusting men is no longer something we will do. As a woman, I don't want to be taken advantage of with a ruse, unfortunately this means even the nice men, will be treated the same as the bad uns
Anyone who's been married 4 times previously is a huge red flag.
"Oh they didn't work out"
It's not a pair of shoes, or a microwave
It's 2 for me; 3 is being too generous...
The only thing better than being married is not being married. 😏
Lol my mom has been married 3 times, my dad twice. I have 3 older sisters that have been married 2,3,4 times! Great role models lol
I have a friend who's been married 5 times. You start to see a pattern after two, I think...
I genuinely think some people are more into the party you get for GETTING married.
Aww 😭💔 seeing her in her wedding dress broke my heart. She should've had years longer in life and love.
my favorite part of these videos are the awkward sentimental goodbyes. i freaking love you.
note from this video: RIP Molly, you looked like the biggest sweetheart. you deserved better.
Its scary how often people will straight up murder someone to avoid appearing like an immoral person.
it's like they don't want their victim to feel a ways about them and their actions - but ok with risking the world at large knowing everything
These people live in their own world/bubble.
Which, ironically, makes them look really bad lol
I know! It’s the worst kind of self fulfilling prophecy
Hasn’t that been the entirety of human history ?
I can't believe how many people kill just to get out of having an awkward conversation. Yes there would have been tears and heated words exchanged, embarrassment etc. but eventually they both would've just got on with their lives. Molly seemed like a genuinely lovely and good person, perhaps somewhat naive, which makes this all the more sad. The cat stickers on her phone tell me she was a sweet person. Nearly made me cry. What a waste and disgusting betrayal. Poor girl. 😢
It amazes just how little integrity some people possess! All he had to do is ghost her! Works all the time!
These cat stickers on her phone brought me to tears
Indeed. I believe he targeted her because she was naive, believed his line, wanted a fairy tale.
@@freedomofspeech766 I’m sorry if this sounds mean, but I wonder if she had any learning disabilities or disorders. For a woman of her age she seemed quite child like. That kiss on his shoulder told me a whole bunch.
I often wonder whether psychos have an adversity to confrontation, cos this happens so much. I can’t get my head around how murder is an option for the most mundane problems
It's lovely to see all of the supportive and kind comments on here about Molly. She sounded like a real sweetheart. But am I gonna be the only one to bring up the question of how in the heck someone like James has to juggle women in his life? Lord have mercy. He's got nothing going for him. How could he be the center of a love triangle? Ladies: we've got to have better standards.
Thank god some said it
This is one of the saddest tragedies I’ve ever heard. RIP sweet Molly 🕊
He legit could’ve either broken up with her or as fucked up as it is he could’ve simply just ghosted her, that would’ve been extremely cruel to do to her( she seemed so sweet and trusting ) but obviously it’s better than freaking murder. This dude is just garbage, he not only stole her life but he stole 7 years from her where she could’ve met and found someone who genuinely loved her and was actually single and capable of creating a life and family with her
What if he didn't do it?
@@elpatron7916 Oh yea he didn't do it, just his tires were there. At the scene of her murder. 2 days before a married man was due to marry her. Yea I'm sure he didn't do it
@@hansolo631 you believe police crime labs
@@elpatron7916 he also had zero alibi.
@@margaritales9972 you and I also have zero alibi. He doesn't have to prove innocence. The state has to PROVE guilty.
i feel bad for the guy who found molly’s body. i can’t imagine how traumatic that was. ppl in his position never get much thought in true crime videos
That's so true but I think of that all the time. My daughter and her bf were the first ones to find a guy that was hit by a car and the people just drove away. She tried giving the guy CPR, even though the back of the guys head and part of his face was gone. She said he still had a slight pulse but still put her mouth over his and tried anyway. She has nightmares about it all the time. This happened about 12 years ago and they still never caught the driver. The guy was crossing the street RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIS OWN HOUSE, and was killed. So yeah, it's horrible for the ones that find the bodies. She also feels alot of guilt bc he didn't survive.
@@jamierupert7563 will you raised a good one and I’m happy to hear she tried but she needs to know it was always out of her hands. Tbh she didn’t have to act or say anything. She could’ve been calloused and walked away but she’s *not* that kind of person and that’s a wonderful quality to have.
RIP to Molly and your John Doe.
@@Viper-py4pg that's really sweet. RIP molly and that John doe. Hugs
It's because there's no more information to be found on them most of the time. Often you don't even get their names, just the 911 calls.
My friends Grandfather found his Grandmother deceased in the home they shared for over 60 years.
It's different because they knew and loved each other. But the man was never the same after that. He was always so jolly and would always tell us stories about his past and give really good advice for life.
Now he's just a shell of himself and it really breaks my heart man. I can't even comprehend what he's going through but he always forces his signature smile whenever we visit him, but it's lost all its warmth.
He's robbed a young woman of her life, a child of its mother, and his own children of their own father (now that he will be in prison forevermore), all because he didn't have the testicular fortitude to simply break it off with one of the women in his life. Disgusting.
Molly seemed like a beautiful person and I am so sorry to Molly's family, she deserved better.
It doesn't make sense. I've been married twice and had to show my divorce degree from my first marriage in order to get my marriage license for my second marriage.
Its so sad. I wonder what he told his wife when he went on all those vacations. In 7 years Molly never went to his house? How did he manage to date her for that long but she never once went to his home?? Unbelievable and it should have been a red flag for Molly. It's bad enough that he led her on for 7 years, but he could have just broken up with her. He didn't need to murder her.
Ive been married multiple times in multiple states and never had to show a divorce decree. Maybe only certain states really care? Im not sure, but i agree this guy was definately sketchy as heck and he coukd have just broken up with her!!
n she had a degree in psychology...she should've seen the red flags then
@@rc6888 two psychology degrees. I don't mean to blame her at all but how did she not see it?
@@rc6888 the type of things these kind of people do are very insidious and you should never EVER victim blame!
Maybe he had a little apartment or something, or used a friends house on the regular? Sometimes I wish Mike would deep dive more but I know that can get really intense! I live in Canada and I’ve had to show my divorce decree as well! It’s interesting how different states can vary so far from each other when it comes to laws like that 🙋♀️🌺
She looked such a happy person. A really pleasant face. RIP
Bless your heart
I'm so sad for her. That's so awful, she just wanted to get married.

this is maybe one of the saddest ones ive seen from this channel, for me
she seemed like such a bright, livey personality... she reminds me in almost every sense of a best friend of mine (in looks, interests, even her voice)
i cant imagine a life without her in it
so i can barely even fathom what Molly's family must have gone through
Seems odd to me that you could be dating someone for 7 years and never have been to there house.
I had similar thoughts. Seven years without either woman knowing something was up. Very doubtful.
He could have been renting a small place
@@mimisezlol for sure
She had been to his house. so much is left out on these shows.
@@memoryheroit had been done before, some people can be very gullible
this is such a sad story. molly was clearly wonderful, upbeat, a beautiful personality. her only wish, to love someone : and this was how life rewarded her. I'm sure that there are many who would watch this video and feel as I do, that Molly would be a wonderful friend to be in touch with. We get hardly any time on earth as a rule, and this lady deserved a long, loving and fruitful life. it takes a lot of coldness to leave a woman of so much beauty and light left for dead on some nameless back road in the middle of the night. another case of the very best meeting the very worst. So sad.
What a beautifully put statement 🙏🏼💕
Eloquently said! The sting of this event runs deep 😔
Exactly my thoughts.

Thank you! Well said! RIP Molly the world needs more people like You!!
She was obviously a really intelligent woman educationally wise, but very naive and trusting in her emotional life. Such a sad story.
@@cansee8637 yeah she has several degrees - very impressive
I’m not sure how smart she was. How do you have a 7 year relationship with someone and not go to their home? There was no red flag? Maybe there’s more to it like he had a secret apartment. I don’t know but this guy is garbage. She seemed like a real good person. So sad she couldn’t see warning signs
a lot of victim blaming going on here
@@rlm2476 a person can be book smart, with college degrees etc… but not people smart, or common sense smart ( wise ). I’ve known many.
@@steverogers2603 you are absolutely correct. It’s incredibly sad. No one deserves what happened to her. I find it interesting people are saying “a lot of victim shaming goin on” when it’s pointing out the obvious she was lacking intelligence in her emotional life. It’s in no way an indictment of her as a person and did not deserve this. It’s a shame she didn’t find someone who would truly care for her. This “man” is trash and prey upon her weaknesses. Awful!
I've watched this several times.
There is something strangely disingenuous about this story. Apparently they had common acquaintances, you mean to tell me in SEVEN YEARS nobody felt compelled to tell her this creep was married? Especially after receiving wedding announcements for the two of them? What kind of friends would do that? Especially nosy female friends.
I have a feeling something has been omitted in this story.
Agree 100% .... something is being buried here
Well sadly they were both cheating on their significant others when they entered their relationship so maybe people just left them to their own devices. At any rate she knew he was married. Eventually he told her they were separated and later that his ex-was killed in an accident. Shame that she connected the dots too late and that's pretty much what got her killed.
Yes, true enough, but none of her friends informed her his wife not only wasn't dead, he was still living with her? That's pretty hard to believe.
I think she may have been autistic. It would explain college degrees and complete lack of incredulity. This in no way absolves the murder, in fact it makes it even crueler, if possible.
A person worked with them wrote that they suspected these two were together. Again, this piece of work is very secretive, quiet and calm so I bet he has no friend. He likes Molly because she was sweet and affectionate towards him.
That defense lawyer had one of the worst arguments I've ever seen in a courtroom
That’s such a sad story. She seemed like a really nice person who just wanted to be loved
Just like we all do... Why does it have to be so complicated?
My thoughts also, so Sad.
Intelligent and multi talented too. Such a waste of potential that could've been saved by a simple "cold feet/it's over" lie. Couldn't even look her in the eye and do that though, had to shoot her from behind like a fucking coward.
I've gotta pull a side note--
Nice handle, PPP

This one hit me pretty hard. I'm getting married this Spring. I can understand some of the excitement Molly must have been feeling and it's just so sad all around.
Molly reminds me of one of my friends Angie, they had similar personalities. I'm so scared for my friend, her boyfriend got out of prison this year and they moved a few hours away in Missouri. He is mentally unstable and extremely abusive. I'm so sad she stuck with him all 12 years he was in prison, after everything he put her though.
Tell her to get a gun, or pepper spray, or taser, I'd say pepper spray or gun is the best option, tasers aren't as great as they seem, you don't need a conceal carry permit in Missouri so she can carry any one of three without problem. You don't even have to tell her to get it for her boyfriend, just tell her the world is crazy now and every woman should have something for protection.
You can’t cure stupid.
Until she leaves him, i wouldnt consider her a good person to be around.
So confused as to how this creep was smart enough to conceal a double life from two woman for seven years but also dumb enough not to realize that the minute Molly showed up dead, his lies would be revealed anyway. Poor Molly, she seemed like a very sweet and innocent person who only wanted to be loved.
Right? Left all that evidence, even her phone was right there.
Heart bleeds for Molly😓🥺
I Get The Feeling Molly Was A Very Trusting, Caring, Soul. She Spent SO MANY YEARS In College After H.S./Working & Getting All Those Degrees. She May Not Have Had A Lot Of "Worldly" Education. She Came From That Small Area In Mexico, Missouri. She Was Only 35yo Compared To Him Being In His 50's!!! He Clearly Had Much More Ass*hole Years & Knowledge Then Her. I'm Sure He Had Her In The Palm Of His Hand.
@@ladeelibra925 he must have been a very skilled liar. His wife of 22 years definitely thought she knew who he was, and sadly so did Molly. As a gifted liar, he could have easily broken up with her instead of killing her.
I bought one polish from her before on Facebook years ago and my heart breaks for her and her family. She seemed like a great, wonderful, and special person - it sucks that she met that waste of a man.
I really appreciate this format because I had no clue where this was going until we got there. You did a great job explaining this horrible case.
My heart aches for Molly, such a wonderful life gone to waste 😞
She was going to become a counselor. That’s a hard job and we need more counselors in this world. She was a kind and caring person. She would have helped so many people.
Very sad 😢
Did you know her? Or are you going by what you see on the internet?
@@alessandrogambino420 what does it matter? She’s dead, we can mourn that even if we didn’t know her personally. She probably would’ve been a fine member of society.
You can't make any comments or assumptions about the kind of person she was or wasn't if you didn't know her. Why that's not already totally obvious in the first place is beyond me but I figured it needed to be explained to you.
@@alessandrogambino420 👏🏼Finally, another person with some common sense, thank you!👏🏼
👍🏻
Molly was an absolute sweetheart. She was caring & always ready to help people. We love her and miss her.
I'm truly sorry for the loss of your beautiful friend. 💜
Yes me also, very sorry 😔 with Love from Washington State 🌲💚
I'm so sorry for your loss. Molly seemed to be a bright gem of a person and when someone like her is taken we all lose in a way. It's a testament to Molly looking at all these comments, her personality clearly shone through in the brief time we got to see her in this video and her genuine character has touched us all. I hope you are all finding peace as time goes on, in whatever sense that may come. You all deserved better x
@bekah I'm sorry for your loss. But you all can't tell me no one knew about this Fool being married a wife & kids at home? C'mon now. Niueve is one thing, but for having a master's + to be oblivious is incomprehensible.
Where were was everyone to warn her? I don't get it ...
@@dorothyc6390 You would be shocked by how easy it is to pull off a double life like he did. Her family only met him a couple of times so it is likely her friends met him the same amount or even less.
This is one of the saddest chapters of That Chapter. Molly is the type of person the world needs more of. Unreal that her life was stolen from her.
This one is sad as hell :( She was so happy and excited about her big day....
World can be so damn cruel.
Molly's murder was so senseless, and sad.
The whole case makes zero sense.
How did he keep up these lies? This makes no sense. I break into a sweat calling in sick to work for 1 day let alone holding 2 different lives for over 7 years.
The stress of it would kill me. I don't know how these people do it
Psychopathy
I lived in Monroe County Missouri for a few (extremely LONG) years in the early 2000's and you can rest assured that the entire area is like this. Something like 50% of the population cheats on the other 50% of the population and many of the cheaters end up committing some pretty dark crimes in order to escape their situations. I think there must be something in the water... Thank god I got out when I did.
Molly seemed like such an amazing person …. So sad that she had to go out like this
Well she dead now
It seriously doesn’t make sense to me that people KILL to get out of relationships!! You can’t just tell her the truth and break up with her?? Wtf! This is SO much worse for everyone!
This was so tragic. Molly seemed so sweet. She was in a good place in her life before she met that POS. She meant nothing to him. And proved it by killing her. My heart also goes out to Melanie. She found out after 22 years her husband was a POS. She’s a victim as well.
When you said he was married so many times I thought for sure that the "that chapter life insurance dance " would certainly be inserted and that I'd get to rock out to it once again
This case really got to me. She seemed like such a sweet girl with so much to give. 😔
I don’t understand how hard it was to just break up with her???? There was no need to kill her. None. Nothing he’d gain if she passed. This was an evil act of pure spite. I’m glad he’s in there for life, what little is left.
I suspect she was on to the fact his wife was still alive and living with him and he was worried Molly would go see her to spill the beans on him.
He didn’t want anyone having either of the women besides him. Like you said, he’s sick and evil.
..and to rip her from her son's life in a flash without a second thought😔
Yep & he should've known better. Missouri is a death state.
Poor Molly, she seemed so child like and innocent, having no idea what she was wrapped up in.
Child like? She was brilliant, educated, artistic, and could handle being in corrections! Please ! Being sweet and happy doesn’t mean child like. Grow a brain
@Marshall Carwood She did seem like a person that would learn something from a book and that's it, she is childlike I agree, and seems like a person that people could easily take advantage of and manipulate. As far as being a prison guard, I have a friend whose daughter is one, she's a pushover, doesn't mean they're necessarily tough.I agree with you completely.
@@donnawatkins8404 I don't think she was childlike. Naive maybe or believing the best of people, but that's not childlike. That's just a decent human being.
@@shaldana Some synonyms of childlike are--- innocent, trusting, simple and naive. Saying she is childlike is not cutting her, it's as she appears.
@@joanbaczek2575 That cell phone showed a child like side of Molly for sure. I think child like because she was too trusting of him and he fooled her for years. You can be very book smart and still be child like.
Why would anyone think that killing someone was the best way out of a dilemma? It makes you think that the people who commit these horrible acts are actually also the stupidest among us.
So bizarre to me that people are so worried about "ruining their lives" that they completely destroy it, take someone elses whole life, and damage the lives of everyone that loved the person. Its so nonsensical
This one is hitting me really hard. No idea why, its not like I live in the States, I'm an Irish boy! But this one really hits ya in the heart. She seemed like such a sweetheart who was thoroughly lovely, happy soul. This one will stick with me.
Yeah this case and the Jessie Blodgett one have me fucked up. It's like way to go guys you killed the nicest people on earth.
Same. I'm over here in Africa, nowhere near where this happened but just seeing those videos of her reminds me of how my sister's personality is like so I could relate to her
I agree. Those videos of hers really make this case feel personal. She's clearly such a sweet, trusting person... She deserved to live happily ever after. 😔
Probably bc it is so dumb. Like all of these are cowardly and dumb normally but this one… just dump the girl. Like what was the point? Thank god that dude found her. I’m sure it was so tough for him to drive up on that but he’s a hero, her family got to bury her and know what happened and a murderer is in jail bc of him. If he hadn’t found her she may not have been found honestly.
+1
I can’t imagine being married to someone and having no clue that for SEVEN YEARS, there was an affair going on. How in the world did he get away with that?!?! I feel awful for these women that got sucked into this man’s evil ways. What a sick, sociopathic monster. My heart breaks for Molly’s family.
He and his wife led separate lives.
@@kimmoran4437 Absolutely!! You’re right.
This didn't happen, but can you imagine when she went through that photo album and she saw that her picture had been cut out of photos. That would be a Lifetime movie!
7 years to me seems so impossible. How do you explain being absent on holidays and vacations? Also, you would think at some point leading up to the wedding, he could have just said, hey I've got cold feet. Makes you wonder if he didn't know which woman he wanted to keep until the very end. Very sobering thought.
@@oldhickory4686 Exactly!!!!! All the pics of Molly and him on vacation and I’m thinking, where did the wife think he was?!?! There’s no way my husband could go on vacations with another woman and I wouldn’t figure it out. You’d have to be one smooth son of a gun!!!
He's got to be a psychopath. If he has no feelings, he can mimic what he needs to for both Melanie & Molly emotionally because there's no guilt for them to pick up on. He's just being a chameleon for what they need, changing his emotional colors as required. No guilt involved. It is a seriously spooky situation.
How terrible for his actual wife to listen to that nasty man proclaim how much he loved that PTY he was abusing. Ya know?
@Angel Child "PTY"? Did you mean "PYT"? Honest question.
@@lisahinton9682 yes! :)
This case was especially sad. Something about Molly’s videos just made the whole situation even more tragic.
Stories like these really get to me. To see videos of someone so happy that she's getting married to the guy she's deeply in love with, only to then get murdered by that same guy. It just bothers me. Imagine the hurt and betrayal she felt when he pulled out that gun. Truly heartbreaking.
The clip of her trying on her wedding dress was painful to watch. It was such a beautiful dress and she was so excited about getting it just right...
I can't stand those men who think that they're entitled to two women, and have absolutely no words for those who are such cowards that when the shit is about to hit the fan they can't even just end it with one of them but would rather just kill them. Molly was obviously such a sweet person and he really preyed on that, it's beyond sickening.
women cheat all the time too, not sure why you think the gender is important?
@@xGaLoSx Because women tend to not kill the men they're cheating with....with some notable exceptions, but exceptions prove the rule.
@@xGaLoSx men cheat more.
@@elinalukaziak693 says you, got a link to your study on that?
Women having terrible taste in men, what else is new.
aw man, it sounded like she was living her best life at the moment. Some things were awkward but it looks like she loved it.
That nail polish creating is so freakin awesome. I ended up watching RUclips videos on nail polishes a whole new world has seemingly opened up to me. She was clearly a sweet girl, may she rest peacefully.
Can you imagine the horror that the 911 caller felt when he went to help the woman on the ground only to realise that she was dead? How traumatised he would be afterwards? Kudos to him for noticing something was off and going back to the scene to investigate. He sounded so calm on the phone...
So, so sad Molly was taken advantage of. He played with her emotions. He didn’t have to do that. Sick, sad behavior. He belongs in prison.
I never feel to bad for these type of victims. They chose to be with these psychos.
@@nealkelly9757 What a lovely sentiment. Not. 😑
@@nealkelly9757 Oh man, you're a big red flag 🚩 like, I hereby sentence you to Yikers Island for that weird ass comment.
@@nealkelly9757 I hope you never end up in a horrible situation you didn't predict and that if you do the people in your life are more understanding than you are
@@blossomentrails3398 I imagine Neal IS the horrible situation some find themselves with.
What I love about this channel, (apart from Mikey of course)! Is the way they use actual video/audio relative to the story. Even some of the established crime channels on Sky tv don't have as much footage. All makes for That Chapter to be exceptional. I hope he doesn't wink too much tho because he makes me blush....!
@@kimmoran4437 I know. l learned it just after I posted! Edited now.
His attorney kept making faces that scream "what in the F@CK am I saying right now." I almost feel bad for some defense attorneys having to put up with trash like this
My heart breaks for Molly and her son who is now left without a mother. What the hell was that selfish self-centred man thinking. I also can’t imagine the pain and distress his wife and daughters are feeling. I have the same sentiments as a lot of others “ how the hell did he get away with this affair for 7 long years”. It just shows how deceitful he was. Wow RIP Molly and I hope with all my heart that her son has good kind and loving people looking after him.
Her son was already in the custody of his father when this happened.
I agree with most everything you pointed out... I'm only commenting so you might hear another point of view I agree he's a monster, killer and deserves everything coming to him. But let's ask the begging question. How could she not know for 7 years. Perhaps it's outside my experience, perhaps she looked the other way. I assume she must have had suspicion.
The guy has a Grim Reaper tattoo on his forearm. Outward sign of his own heart.
@@jjoosneaphh I think you’re most probably right she might have suspected but ignored it. There must have been red signs like not being invited to his home or meeting his family even if he gave her some sort of explanation
@@truecrimebuff5631 luck you, you’ve never met a lying no count low down no good worthless shiftless man. Some (not all) lie so well that you’d think the sky was made from red cashmere if they said it was.
The defense attorney is about the only person I've seen that can make a plaid suit look good... and also he knew he couldn't save his client from jail.
that defense attorney needs his own channel, please.
He also looks weirdly familiar. I wonder if he's closely related to an actor or a wrestler?
@@happydudemarius9404 He sort of reminds me of the dude who played euron greyjoy in game of thrones
The suit was pimp, but that tie should be reported for crimes against humanity.
He had to try, because it was his job, and because everyone is entitled to a competent defense, even guilty people. But I can tell he knew there was no way to successfully defend him.
This is absolutely heartbreaking. Poor girl just wanted the life of her dreams and this piece of shite took all that away from her…
Sad sad story Molly sounds like a great person. Thanks Mike for this story ❤❤❤
“She was like wife age.”
That was phenomenal.
So sad for molly. She seemed lovely. 🖤
I wonder. If he was with Molly for 7 years, did she never go to his "home" ? How do you get away with that? Molly, dear girl, seemed a bit too innocent and accepting of whatever tale he told to her. So sad.
It happens, the person trusts the deceiver and they might have suspicions here and there from time to time. Ultimately the person decides to trust the deceiver
I agree- sometimes when someone is so in love with someone, they don’t question anything. When you look at the world through rose colored glasses- all the red flags just look like flags.
These creeps know who to pick 😓
@@clearcomm Or they look like red flags, but you're sooooo in love and heavily invested in the relationship so you ignore it and you're in complete denial. I've seen it too many times with my friends and I've been through it with an ex. He was such a bad boy and I didn't care. I was also 16 lol. 16-22 wish I could get those years back haha
RIP Molly
Might've had an apartment or something that he brought her to, these double life people tend to go all out with their charades, especially the longer they keep them going for.
Rip Molly. I’m so sorry for what happened to you!. I’m glad the one responsible is behind bars!
Mike...you're over 1.5 mills in subbies. Congratulations and thank you for giving us everything. Most true crime creators has lost their touch or gone on to other things and I'm happy that you're are still true to your channel and your story telling. Xoxo
My question is: How do you date someone for SEVEN years and even make wedding arrangements without ever going to their house? Unless he had a secret bachelor apartment on the side that was never mentioned in this video?
That’s what I presumed.
I'm more baffled as to how he spent significant time with either one of them for seven years without getting caught or arousing suspicion.
I know many people have said that they can’t imagine how she felt in those final moments and all the fear and heartbreak she must of been going through.
I don’t agree. The coward shot her in the back of the head. I don’t think she ever saw it coming.
I hope she didn't. This is really just so awful.
Yeah Id say he got her out there on some emergency pretence like a broken car, then shot her when her back was turned.
I dont think coward is a good word. No matter the circumstances, actually going through with killing a human being is fairly ballsy in and of itself, i think the correct term is "a sneaky fucking bastard." This isnt meant as any sort of defence for the guy, hes a real piece of shit.
Hope your right,agree this coward was never gonna face his victim, bet he thought of killing his wife or Molly? But thought Molly would be easier to get away with!!
What a worthless piece of 💩!!
🤞Let's Hope So. 🤞
I didn't know that anyone outside of the news outlets had a video on Molly. She was such a nice person. I used to chat with her often because we were in a polish maker's collaboration group. She was always willing to help anyone out in the nail polish maker community. I remember how happy she was about her pending wedding. She truly didn't deserve this and he could have called it off at any time. Glad that justice was served on the day that would've been their 3rd wedding anniversary. Bittersweet because her mom and dad didn't get to see justice handed down. Her brother hung in there and kept everyone updated on the trial and everything.
RIP, Molly! 🙏🏾🕊️❤️
Poor Molly 😢 I didn't know anything about her until I watched this video. But it made me so very sad. Nobody deserves to be treated as she was.
"I'm sorry, I lied" is so hard for some people huh.. gotta take it to 100 right away instead. poor her ...
How can these people believe everything will be alright if they just kill someone? Some disconnection?
Well these days prison is basically setting you up for life. Maybe not a great life, but you can live a decent life. You get fed three times a day, you get a roof over your head, you get a bed to sleep in, and you get a shower to wash yourself. Not to mention free healthcare. Access to phones to call family/friends. And if you have someone putting money on your books? You can have all kinds of delicious foods, snacks, and drinks. You can get Nike shoes. You can get a radio/mp3 player. You can get e-cigs. Some prisons even have mini TVs. If you’re a woman you can buy the “more comfortable” feminine hygiene products, you can buy makeup, you can literally buy allll kinds of stuff. You can buy sweatpants, sweatshirts, tshirts. Literally anything. A lot of people just don’t care. Hell, a lot of people are living a better life in prison than the life they would be living in the free world. Some prisons you even got access to a computer you can send emails! And don’t even get me started on prisons in countries like Norway. That’s practically a vacation. Heated floors, your own individual rooms with your own bathrooms (basically think of it like a college dorm) your own washing machine and dryer, a COMFORTABLE NICE bed, DELICIOUS food provided by the actual prison, you get a desk, tv, so much more.
(I’m not saying that prison is a cake walk btw. To me and you, we would much rather be living comfortably in our homes. I’m just saying that these people don’t think like you and me. They have nothing to lose, and prison to them can actually be “beneficial” in their eyes. Kinda like how sometimes homeless people will intentionally commit a crime just so they can have 3 meals, a roof over their heads, and a bed to sleep on.)
@@aestheticallysad_3016 please check out Jimmy Calandra's channel and his post today. Prison is hell. Granted, some people's home lives are so horrible that prison does seem like a viable option. Appreciate your thoughts and response. Truly
I can imagine being the wife just sitting in court. Hearing how your husband has been telling everyone your dead and that literally they were days away from getting married. Like imagine what his kids thought
He and his wife led separate lives.
She said afterwards that she wasn’t surprised to find out he’d killed someone!
@@kimmoran4437 Dang ... Can you imagine living with and sleeping with someone that you truly believed would murder someone?
@@vintagetoycollector4983
They slept in separate rooms too, apparently!
But yeah, it’s crazy!
It’s crazy that in such a small city he could keep these two women secret from each other!
That defense attorney seemed more concerned with his physical appearance than any actual argument.
This made me cry, she was vulnerable and wanted to be loved, I hope her son and family find peace. A big red flag to all who are looking for love out there, be careful your knight is not so shining.
7 years....ugh so sick
that's the worst part of it: she really seemed to want to be loved, to the point of self-deception about Jim. How the hell could she never go to his place in 7 years?
I am said knight, I am still shiny after 24yrs....so.🙂
(Meaning we are still very much in love, happy, after 24yrs. So there are plenty of shiny knights out there...maybe you're the problem. Miserable thing.)
Unfortunately it’s not always obvious if your in the relationship… but you should always listen to your family if they don’t like your partner.
So often knights in shining armor turn out to be turds in tin foil....
This makes me so mad. You could really tell she was a very sweet person. I hate when things like happen to innocent, beautiful people. May you continue to Rest In Peace Molly. 😢
How sad! Seeing Molly in her videos makes this story even more sad. RIP Molly. ❤️
The lawyer. LMFAOO. He was the worst. Imagine that being the person you’re paying to defend you.
"Why don't we just..."
*waiting*
"....give it a go!"
HE SAID THE THING!!!!!!!
Mike, I just got home from a long shift at work. I've been depressed, sleeping like hell, there's a month long wait to see a psychiatrist in my area, and let me tell you, every time I remember you've uploaded, it makes a crappy day a little brighter. Thanks for doing what you do.
♥️🙏🏼
Yes... There's nothing like innocent people being killed to brighten ones day 🤗 No wonder you are depressed! Watch the Simpsons instead.
I have 2 nights in the week that I get to go to bed early and have some time to myself (hubby takes kid to bed everyother night but I have 2 nights I'm not busy) Anyway my me time is always brightened by knowing I have a That Chapter to watch! Definitely one of my weekly highlights so know how you feel. Keep going your days will get brighter again, enjoy and celebrate the small things even if they're a miniscule thing to someone else make it a huge thing for you. Much love and healing to you 💖
I make it a habit to like all Mike's videos before I watch them, that way I know if I missed one or not. Congrats on almost 2 million! Been hanging out since about 25k!
Mike, I really can’t say enough great things about your content, man. I got my whole family hooked. We love how you can use humor but, are never disrespectful. We love the respect and reverence you show the victims and their families. We love the way you research, deliver, edit…. Whatever it takes, to put out one top-notch video after another. In fact, I believe you were the first channel I ever subscribed to, that wasn’t hockey, motor racing or comic books. My first, “depth content” subscription. Lol. Cheers, brother. Keep it up. We’ll all be here for it! 👊🏻 -Aaron, out
How the hell does your spouse go on a Disney vacation with someone else? I guess some partners are just oblivious, under extreme manipulative control, or know and simply do not care.
Fear is how I saw it.
Ignorance is bliss.
Maybe she was told he was on a 'work trip'
Imagine his wife's shock finding those vacation photo albums!! My God you'd want to murder him yourself!!!
no shit
This one hit me pretty hard, I know a girl with similar personality, so sweet and nerdy/geeky the thought of someone hurting her like that is awful 😖
I'm so sorry you were hurt and killed by the one you loved poor dear 😞
My childhood dog got into the trash and ate cheese and it killed her. Don’t give your dogs cheese.
I sincerely hope she didn't see it coming. Poor thing
She seems like such a sweet soul. I went and looked at her page, it's so sad, bridesmaid dresses and her wedding dress. What a pos
