His lawyer crying after he was sentenced was literally disgusting and flat out weird. And her saying “we wish you could have gotten to know the real Kevin that we know” is just as disgusting, insulting, disrespectful and disturbing.
She didn't act in a very professional manner, but perhaps she was mostly crying because she lost the case and not so much because she felt sorry for him.
She should serve time for her actions. We should get to know the person she got to know. A f*cking murderous liar??? Shame on her for ottering those words.
@@maureenmckillop3622 Serve time for feeling emotions and saying words? That's literally insane. Dont get me wrong, I think the lawyer was gross and unprofessional. But we don't jail people because we don't like what they say or feel. Seek help.
I've been around people who play victim card they are really good at manipulating people its almost like hypnosis playing on their emotional output. To get what they want. The guy is guilty as they come.
Makes me real glad to be an autist with limited emotional understanding, I understand some emotions and do feel, but the rest? I dunno, they’re outside my very small box of emotional capability, and it genuinely makes me very grateful when I see displays like this where it’s obvious that the emotional manipulator has once again, emotionally manipulated someone else.
Just wanted to say that long before I was diagnosed with end stage cancer, I watched your videos. Now I'm sick in bed all the time and I still look forward to them. Thank you for making such great vids. I can even play your theme on my little piano app! Thanks for letting us give it a gooo!
I went to school with Scott. He was real close with a lot of friends of mine. Its really weird to watch this one 😞 Scott was a very sweet and nice person. His death really hurt a lot of people 😞 Peace to everyone 💙
Scott was a family friend, this is wild to see a story hit close to home. Thank you Mike for doing a great job showcasing Scott and his passion for music and life ❤️ he’s continued to make a such huge impact here.
TBH I got out of an abusive relationship in part by watching channels like this. It's better to learn from others' mistakes, especially when they end so tragically :(
Come on! Why don't you give him a second chance? He's probably very sorry... I'm sure he changed and he's not going to do disrespect you once again. Right?
The thing about that is they get off on that. They will ceaselessly change tactics to keep you around,how many times have we all heard " well, she just gets really mad, but she's ok. She just yells alot" or " yeah he hits me, but not hard, I made him mad" they smooth it over and the cycle repeats. Just a game for the fucks.
Wow what faith can anyone have in the police if they’re literally watching a suspected murderer take another victim to a secluded spot where he murdered her! Bravo top notch police work!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
This is so sad. The fact that the police were watching them when she was killed is just egregious. They would've easily found the blood with a search warrant. Just depressing.
I gotta agree. Why on earth did they wait so long to execute a search warrant or question them, knowing that there had been domestic violence before? It seems insane to just watch and wait when it's pretty clear there's a possibility that Heather was in a bad position with a known violent man!
I think because from their point of view she looked like she had conspired with the ex bf to kill the current bf. They had no reason to think she was in danger and every reason to think she was a co-conspirator. Everything always looks really obvious after the facts are revealed but in the moment they usually aren’t. Im just sorry she didn’t think she could ask her nail tech to call the police and get her sons to safety. She must have known he was gonna kill her
@nada Gabri He was wanted for abuse, had a warrant, and had previously been reported by her for abuse. She would believe they would do anything why exactly? This is amazingly ignorant.
Yea like they knew he gonna kill her, do you really think that police can see in the future? Ofc they gonna try get more hard evidence before arresting.. Ridiculous to say police had culpability in the murder... But hey, you american, yall have smaller brain so i let that slide for now
No offence but how were they supposed to know that Hester wasn't involved in the murder? As the lawyer said, Hester used to roam freely for the entire week after the murder, and even got her nails done. This simply means that she deliberately didn't complain about Kevin, even when he had no hostages. She got what was coming to her unfortunately.
@@p2kCrime They had arrests warrants for both of them. While detained, Heather very well have told them what happened, knowing Kevin was also detained. She might have gotten some time, but at least she would have been alive. (Only saying she might have gotten some time because she didn’t come forward earlier. Since she was a victim she may not have.)
I love how his attorney says she wishes everyone had gotten to know "the Kevin Eastman" that they knew. There's only one of him, guys! And you knew he beat her viciously for years before this!
Two things that others have mentioned, that are sickening: 1: They actually let him drive away with Heather, to KILL her. 😠 2: The attorney crying at the verdict. 🙄
YESSS! I CAN FEEL HER DREAD AND FEAR RIGHT THROUGH THE SCREEN ! SHE WAS IN DIRE EXTREME DEADLY JEIPARDY and had a chance of RESCUE. BUT THEY JUST SAT THERE! W!! T!!! F!!!!!!🥵😡🤬💀☠️😭😭😭😭😱😨🥶😤😭
One of my best friends played bass in their band "the movers and shakers". Really hit him hard Scott seemed to be loved by a lot of people and seemed super genuine and happy with life. Sad story man ..
It was disturbing that the Lawyer was crying when he got sentenced also stating she wished everyone had got to know him as they had done! Thank you Mike as always, for all your hard work researching this case.
Just wanted to take a second to Congratulate you and Mrs Mike on getting hitched... Watch out for the life insurance dance!!! Seriously.. Congratulations to you both. Wishing you a long, happy life together. ♥️♥️♥️
Scott was an exceptional human being. He added so much love and light to this world. Back in the day, we would listen to some great jazz trumpet players and then play the solos ourselves to improve our own skills and chops. His passion for music was unmatched. I miss you my friend. I hope you’re playing some good tunes in the other side world. RIJ (Rest in Jazz) Scott & Heather
His lawyer said, "I wish you could get to know Kevin." I feel like if she had gotten to know him up close and personal years ago, she would be the reason Kevin is sentenced to natural life.
i don't know what the professional standards for lawyers are in the states but there is no way a lawyer here in new zealand would make a comment like that, weep and stroke her client during sentencing.
She was crying because she lost the case. She wasn't going to get a bonus, she was going to get a lecture. That's. Why she was crying. She didn't care about what happened to that fat f**k, she cared about her reputation and her paycheck.
@@happiedaze RIGHT! WHAT'S WRONG WITH HER? HAVING SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL? DID SHE ALREADY FORGET HOW THIS MONSTER BRUTALLY MURDERED TWO INNOCENT PEOPLE? WTH!
I'm so sorry. What an awful story. Looking at how he was killed, ambushed from behind it seems, absolutely made me feel sick - what a cowardly thing for that weird looking prick to do. Absolutely not fair.
I find it interesting that he asked her to marry him... knowing that in most states, a spouse can't be forced to testify against you. She said no. That made her a danger.
It's not a thing anymore, spouses most definitely can be made to testify against each other when necessary but no doubt when she said no to the marriage he would have realised he then had to kill her because she was a witness and was surely going to tell the police when she got the chance. He must have thought he could win her round by........ Murdering her new boyfriend in cold blood and forcing her to spend the following week with him, so romantic...... For a maniac!
It wouldn't have mattered either way. It would only protect during the time you're married. You don't have that privilege to not testify against them about something that happens pre-dating the marriage, which the murder would have. It also only covers what is said between the two. It would not work for actions. If he told her that he killed Scott, that would be protected and she wouldn't have to testify. If she witnessed him doing so, she would have to testify about it no matter what.
She had a pretty strong case of getting the marriage annulled, what with being held at gun point before, during and after the proposal, so not the greatest plan, lol. Also, I think the spouse has a right not to testify, but they still can, so that doesn't silence her at all.
This cretin I would like a psychological expose of. What kind of throwback rock did he grow up under? Why are there still men that think they can control a woman?
Some criminals, especially the sociopaths, are very very charming. I would think most attorneys would be wise to that, on the lookout for it, and careful to check their emotions toward any client, but perhaps this one got through those with this attorney.
This state has been going to Hell ever since they legalized pot 10 years ago, at least that's what the locals tell us. We moved here 2 years ago and can't wait to retire and get out.
@@kristinebailey6554 legalizing weed has proven time and time again to be a good thing. weed calms the brain and body which actually has been proven to reduce violence. so i can assure you weed is not the issue.
@@edinsoncavanirespector9078 if you actually did your research on it, you’d know that weed affects everyone differently. not only that but those symptoms are caused by weed dependency. i could say right now that alcohol makes people violent and mean but it’s not fully true is it? right! and that’s because alcohol affects everyone differently and usually the people who act violently are alcohol addicts. same shit except id rather be lazy than violent.
This is ridiculous. Those cops got her killed. How do you not just knock on the door and ask both of them to come answer questions. You dont think she wouldve rolled on him right there? Plus they had warrants already. Terrible.
Yeah, but I think, just in case Heather, who was going about her regular business as usual after Scott's murder, wasn't in on the murder too (and wouldn't roll on the murderer)...and I think they were being followed to see where they hid the murder weapon and/or who they interacted with just after the murder of Scott...who else could have been involved. As Mike said, they barely had enough circumstantial evidence on him at the time, and wanted to get more...but you're right...would have been better if LE went in earlier. I don't know how they would have known Heather was in danger bc she acted normally and did her normal stuff, without alert the police...which she could have done indirectly. Like her co-workers said, she acted alittle nervous but not very, apparently. I was pretty impressed LE found the murderer and Heather in the 1st place, to be honest. Yeah, it's too bad LE didn't go in earlier, but I think they were getting more evidence and didn't know Heather was in danger at the time.
And had they done that and not found anything? This would've just happened later. You expect cops to be predictors of crime, yet the own victim didn't even try to save herself when she had plenty of time too. Can't blame them for not knowing what even the person in the relationship refused to acknowledge. That's what's ridiculous.
Battered women typically don't talk to the police, or leave the abusive situation. Even when they do call the police, they often refuse to press charges or testify. Don't blame the cops.
Holy shit, 3 bootlickers in a row replied to your comment. Bootlickers: you are WRONG. The police had PROOF that Scott's death had occurred in Heather's house, and did not bring her in for questioning or get a search warrant for her house. They had PROOF that Kevin was involved, and did not arrest him or even bring him in for questioning. They had FUCKING ARREST WARRANTS IN HAND as they watched Kevin and Heather drive away. The police refused to do their jobs at EVERY step, because they wanted to live out their high-school-failure dreams of being spies. They are 100% responsible for Heather's death, period. Let's hope none of you bootlickers ever lose a loved one because of police negligence like this. Will you still be defending the cops and blaming the victims in that case? Pathetic.
Was his lawyer "invested" in him? Odd way she looked at him and the way she spoke of wishing they "knew" him the ways she/they did was not normal. She looked pained at the verdict, more than just an "Oh, poop, I lost" kind of look.
He probably used the fame manipulation tactics as he did with Heather. He even tried to draw some pity from the detective interviewing him with the whole rejected proposal b.s.
The fact he was last traced to her apartment should have been enough for a search warrant. The police literally have video of Heather marching to her death. So incredibly infuriating!
My favorite part of the judge reading his sentencing is that he said "life in prison, but we're going to award you 883 days towards that sentence." Jeez, that was funnier than it should've been.
@@thabsilechamane3774 It's referring to "time served," which is when the time you've spent in jail during the legal process counts towards your prison sentence. So if someone commits a crime and gets sentenced to 5 years, but they spent a year and a half in jail for the whole trial, they only have 3.5 years to serve in prison.
@@thabsilechamane3774 it goes towards "time already served" while awaiting trial. If he'd gotten a 30 year sentence, it would have been 30 minus 2 plus years while he was held in jail awaited trial.
@@roxannemoser its stupid but the judge gave him his time in the county jail awaiting trial towards his sentence. In larger counties usually jail time is not day for day. One day in jail may account for 2 days or 3 for 1.
I hate myself for first being shocked and then laughing. I do suspect that his butch old lady look will attract some new friends when he hits prison. His life should be tons of fun from here on out. Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.
I was thinking the same ... like wtf is this transformation in this short amount of time😳😳he was kinda slim and fit, and then jabba...... what happened really😳
@@ChaCha.44 I recognized his voice because I watched Chris Watts sentencing like 5 times over and then I remembered that this was Colorado so then I knew for sure!
I get odd reactions when I tell ppl who dont know this channel : "just had breakfast watching Mike talk about a murder case, it is such a lovely start of the, his way of telling is so funny without being ridiculous " but Mike.. Thank you!
I saw part of this trial where Scott's father was testifying. Bless his heart. He was admonished a few times for not waiting on the questions to be completed before trying to respond. It didn't click that this was the case until you started talking about him playing the trumpet, not showing up, and being found by the snow plow driver. RIP Scott & Heather
The ONLY thing I love about my first day having to go back to work is knowing that when I get home I know that there will be a new ‘That Chapter’ video waiting for me at home. 🙌🏻
I'm having trouble understanding why the cops had warrants for them, but decided to tail them instead of arresting him. They didn't even tail them and now this woman is dead. The police have some complicity in her death.
not if you're that scared. The fact that they were watching him and he killed Heather proved that if she had went for help, she would have died anyway. Look at how he manipulated his own lawyer and had her crying at the end.
Which tells me she was guilty of murder and trying to cover up by acting like nothing had changed in her life. She sure was busy that day ,I think she wanted everyone to see her acting normally.
The police seriously messed up here. They carried on watching Heather and Kevin and Heather died as a result of their inaction. Let's face it the possible scenarios when the police were watching them were, either Kevin, jealous ex had lured the new man over to the house and killed him and Heather was an unwilling participant in the crime meaning she was now in danger herself or the two of them were working together to kill the new boyfriend but there is absolutely no motive for Heather in that scenario whatsoever so it should have been obvious that scenario number two was extremely unlikely and it was more likely Heather wasn't part of the murder and therefore very likely in danger from her unhinged ex as she was a valuable witness. The cops should have seen this it's so obvious.
@@justmythoughts6313 I'm just struggling to see what benefits the police thought they could gain by monitoring the pair over time, they already knew that one or both were involved in the murder and the most likely scenario was that the ex was the killer and Heather was an unwilling participant. Whatever their thoughts they must have been aware that they were taking a significant risk with her life by continuing to allow them to carry on without bringing them in. I do understand its easy for me to say with the benefit of hindsight but nonetheless they must have been aware of the possible theories and the risk to further lives being lost by choosing their course of action.
A delusional, evil man takes the lives of two innocent people. The police watch them for days, with an arrest warrant in hand and yet they don't. I can't understand what they thought they would learn by tracking them instead of arresting them. So damned sad.
I think LE was tailing them, the killer and Heather (bc they didn't know she wasn't involved in the killing of Scott at her house), to get more evidence. See if they would lead LE to the murder weapon or anyone else involved...I don't think they knew Heather was scared or in danger bc she was acting "normally", apparently,
More info. An arrest warrant isn't a guaranteed stay in jail card. He could've just killed her when they got out if they didnt have enough evidence. She looked complicit, didn't even bother to save herself. Yet you expect the Leo's too. Amazing.
You'd also blame the police if they acted too quickly. He might have bailed out and fled or done even more harm. He might have gone to trial and been judged innocent for lack of evidence. PS, it is not illegal to be delusional or evil. These are judgement calls, and not valid reasons for arresting or convicting someone. If they were, we'd all be in jail, as others with different moral views would quickly place charges. Cancel culture, anyone?
Mike.. you shouldn’t really have to thank us for watching these videos. Of course it allows you to make this your actual job - but that’s because of the work and effort, and it’s personality you put into these! You’re the reason you’re successful, not us! You just give us entertaining and accurate videos to watch and we do..and that’s all we do. Give yourself a high five, cause as someone who’s followed you for years and watched you evolve into the successful creator you are now - I’m proud of you and thank you!
Yet...I'm amazed that she didn't try to save herself either...unless he drove her to everything she went to and drove her back. Even then, she could at the least passed a note to a co-worker or to the nail person that she was in danger and to call the police...told them everything, how he had killed Scott and where the body was...but she didn't. I'm sure she was terrified and had 3 sons to protect, but it also would have been beneficial if she alerted the police, even indirectly, herself. I don't know how the police would know that Heather wasn't just in on the murder of Scott (helped out the killer) as she appeared to go about her business as usual afterwards?
@@bettywith2girls Exactly. Its pretty hard to believe an innocent person goes through their normal routines while living at a murder scene for a week. Its also pretty hard to believe a person scared for their sons lives would go out to dinner with them, act perfectly normal, and still refuse to notify the police. If you are scared for you, and your sons life, sitting face to face to one of them but then proceed to leave to go back home to a muderer..?? It makes no sense.
She didn't even bother to save herself, yet you expect them to be what, predictors of crime? Easy to blame a job you never have to do. It's easy to criticize something we now have knowledge of afterwards. Yet they didn't at the time. It doesn't matter if he had abused her before. She didn't act like she was scared. They can't just go in for no reason and bust her out. Then the times the cops do try to help. They are demonized still by women and family who refuse to press charges and put them away. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
@CallMeAvocado she made some bad choices and was in essence the architect of her own demise, she had the opportunity to go to the police and didn't... stupid girl
@@p2kCrime I love judgemental people who wouldn't know empathy if it jumped up and bit them on the ass. My deepest sympathy to all the females in your orbit.
Yeah, everyone's acting like it makes her a horrible person, it's more likely that he was a very sad, pathetic, and manipulative man, and how long has that girl been out of law school? A year? She looks, and sounds, SO young. Probably naive, idealistic, gullible, hadn't met a hardcore criminal yet, and he persuaded her to believe him and pity him.
I watched most of the trial and it was often confusing. The two blonde defense lawyers were totally incompetent. Thanks for filling in some of the blanks; now I understand more clearly what happened.
Wow what an emotionally devoid guy. He looks like a Fraggle Rock character. He's got such a cold, empty stare. The lawyer crying is a bit weird too. Great video Mike!
Being from Colorado it's so strange when our cases are mentioned haha although sorta fun fact we do hold quite a few high profile prisoners in the southern part of the state
I stumbled upon Mike and That Chapter late one night and I can't miss an episode now. I also always say "Tirty-Tree" at random points in my day. Thank you Mike.
Would just like to say something for the people who are confused by Heather's behaviour. Some victims come to feel that they can prevent and control their abuser's violence by obeying, because they believe that the violence is caused by them - "This never would have happened if I had done what he wanted. This is my fault." Heather probably just fell back into a survival mode of doing anything to keep Kevin from getting angry, believing that if she tried to leave like she did before, it would just result in Kevin killing someone else.
So what you're telling me is that this abusive man who just murdered her boyfriend in front of her, he was the one that suggested his "girlfriend" go get her nails done? And this woman who was so cowed into compliance and going along with her captor told him to piss off when he asked her to marry him again? I'm not saying these things are impossible, but they really don't track with the story being presented here in my opinion. There is something off about their behaviour that does not jive with the idea that she was a helpless victim start to finish. It feels more likely to me that they were in on it together but there was a huge blowup at some point and he got rid of her as well, after the fact. It wouldn't be the first time that has happened either.
@@Person01234 i agree, it's really fishy. but i also don't want to completely dismiss the idea that she was so manipulated/traumatized/etc that she really thought everything would be ok if she just went about business as usual. the human brain has done stranger things. but again, it's very off
@@ediblefredible Its pretty hard to believe that she witnessed he new boyfriend being murdered in front of her and she just kept going to work for a week. The only possibility I can think of that she didnt get help was maybe if Kevin was holding her kids hostage and threating to kill them.. Still, you'd think anyone would have tried to seek some sort of help in that situation. She doesnt seem as innocent as Mike tries to paint her in this seemingly nonsensical story.
@@DownHillSkateTime oh i also personally don't think it adds up and she wasn't innocent. just thinking out loud i suppose lol, but you have a fair point i'm only going off this one vid
PSA: "A and An are two different forms of the same word: the indefinite article a that is used before noun phrases. Use a when the noun or adjective that comes next begins with a consonant sound. Use an when the noun or adjective that comes next begins with a vowel sound. Remember that what matters is the pronunciation, not the spelling."
I'm surprised Heather's family haven't charged the Greely police department with a wrongful death suit. Clearly if they had moved quicker with a search warrant for her place she'd still be alive and more questions answered. The old lady comment cracked me up. Mike always has a way of introducing some humour into these gruesome cases!!
Some people are really dumb and take no responsibility. She probably just autopilotted through life. Why else do you take a multi-time abuser back over and over?
@ConfusedOilPainter I believe he stayed in house with her children whilst she ran errands as a form of control of her, he probably even threatened to harm them as well.
@@avaforshort681 Doesn't Mike say in the video that after Scott was killed she went out to dinner with her son and his girlfriend? If so, then that coupled with the fact that her son claimed that she seemed "normal" after Scott died/before she was killed indicates that her kids had no clue what was going on, may have been old enough to defend themselves better than if they were still literal children, and were likely living elsewhere. There's something really off about all this and I'm not sure that I fully buy the whole "she was forced/her kids were threatened" story, especially when considering that she went about her daily routine as if nothing had ever happened.
My psychotic ex said yes after manipulating me to ask her. Sorry, yes she said when I asked her to make me the happiest man in the world... that followed by telling me she didn't believe in any of the wedding vows after a visit from an incest relationship of hers
Is that attorney serious right now? She wishes we could meet the Kevin that they knew? The same one with warrants for domestic assault? She needs to find a new career because she’s not very good at her job. Everyone knows it’s not the person you meet that you should worry about, it’s who they are behind closed doors.
Just because Heather did normal activities, doesn't mean she felt ok. Shed already tried to escape the guy brutalising her. By that point, I'm sure she was terrified, trapped & acting normal hoping she wouldnt be murdered. I wonder if he killed her just so she couldnt date while he was in prison..
I agree she was probably also afraid to go to police because either they wouldn't believe her , leave her unprotected, or even charge her with the murder. It's a terrifying position to be in especially if you're brainwashed and knowing you can't slip, make him mad, paranoid or any little thing to make him kill you too.
Yeah I'd be freaking terrified. Not only had she got away, but he came back. Found her new boyfriend and killed him? Surely from then on she'd be in survival mode.
Why on earth was his lawyer shedding a tear like his guilty verdict was a travesty of justice. Was she sad that we didn't get to know the real man behind the murders like his victims did! As if his rap sheet/record didn't tell us all what an abusive violent man he really was. Great vid Mike . Defence lawyers honestly!
Aside from the great content that Mike consistently delivers.... It's his genuine personality and sincere appreciation that he has for his viewers that keeps me coming back. Mike, you're an absolute legend! ❤❤❤
Wow. He’s one creepy mother lover. He didn’t even flinch at the trial. And….seriously made my stomach turn when his lawyer was shedding a tear 😬 Also- congratulations on your wedding Mike 😊🥳
Godddd I know how strong coercion from a violent spouse can be. I can’t imagine how terrifying it must have been for Heather that week. Goddddd I just wish she was able to lowkey call the cops. I wonder if she had any idea how bad it was going to get for her, or if she was working on a plan or if she thought he would eventually loosen the reins and then she would go for help. For all we know Kevin was always right outside her job, or when she went shopping or got her nails done or whatever. Maybe he always was watching or made her feel like he was always watching. Possibly he instructed her to do her normal routine as to not raise any suspicion. It’s just so frustrating that they had her under surveillance alive and they arrested him basically immediately after he murdered her.
He probably knew her kids and where they lived and worked. I’m sure he put them under threat as well if he felt she was trying to slip out of his grasp.
I understand that the police thought Heather was involved with Scott's murder but I truly wish they had arrested them both earlier. It seems like such a small easy thing to have done to avoid another senseless murder. Hind sight being 20/20 and all that.

That was just bizarre, lawyers are supposed to remain emotionally distanced, he was just a controlling abuser, so we did get to know him.
Or she has a thing for guys who commit crimes.
She didn't act in a very professional manner, but perhaps she was mostly crying because she lost the case and not so much because she felt sorry for him.

I shouldn't be excited bc they're always terrible/tragic stories, but.. I love Mike giving it a goo!
I'm very happy you said what I'm thinking.
He'll ya! That's so true! Lets give it a goo!😲😳
I just want an Idaho murder case update man
I started giving it a goo the second I got the notification
Giggity!
Why abusive and controlling people can't understand why the person being abused doesn't want to be with you anymore is just beyond me.
The thing about that is they get off on that. They will ceaselessly change tactics to keep you around,how many times have we all heard " well, she just gets really mad, but she's ok. She just yells alot" or " yeah he hits me, but not hard, I made him mad" they smooth it over and the cycle repeats. Just a game for the fucks.
Sadly because sometimes the victim takes them back.
They understand. They just don't care.
They genuinely dont think they are doing anything wrong
Is he praying on his knees ? Lol at 18.00
Wow what faith can anyone have in the police if they’re literally watching a suspected murderer take another victim to a secluded spot where he murdered her! Bravo top notch police work!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
This is so sad. The fact that the police were watching them when she was killed is just egregious. They would've easily found the blood with a search warrant. Just depressing.
I gotta agree. Why on earth did they wait so long to execute a search warrant or question them, knowing that there had been domestic violence before? It seems insane to just watch and wait when it's pretty clear there's a possibility that Heather was in a bad position with a known violent man!
@@TheDreamingMyriad but she was able to leave the house multiple times, work, nails, dinner. Why didn’t she go to LE? Wierd
I think because from their point of view she looked like she had conspired with the ex bf to kill the current bf. They had no reason to think she was in danger and every reason to think she was a co-conspirator. Everything always looks really obvious after the facts are revealed but in the moment they usually aren’t.
Im just sorry she didn’t think she could ask her nail tech to call the police and get her sons to safety. She must have known he was gonna kill her
True.
@nada Gabri He was wanted for abuse, had a warrant, and had previously been reported by her for abuse. She would believe they would do anything why exactly? This is amazingly ignorant.
I can not believe they didn't arrest him after they had the warrant! What in the actual F? They have culpability in the woman's murder!
I hope her family sues the police department for her children's sake! She could be alive ! Disgusting!
This is America 🤦🏽♂️
Yea like they knew he gonna kill her, do you really think that police can see in the future? Ofc they gonna try get more hard evidence before arresting.. Ridiculous to say police had culpability in the murder... But hey, you american, yall have smaller brain so i let that slide for now
No offence but how were they supposed to know that Hester wasn't involved in the murder? As the lawyer said, Hester used to roam freely for the entire week after the murder, and even got her nails done. This simply means that she deliberately didn't complain about Kevin, even when he had no hostages. She got what was coming to her unfortunately.
@@p2kCrime They had arrests warrants for both of them. While detained, Heather very well have told them what happened, knowing Kevin was also detained. She might have gotten some time, but at least she would have been alive.
(Only saying she might have gotten some time because she didn’t come forward earlier. Since she was a victim she may not have.)
Just the thought of him getting on his knees and praying, asking for her to be safe, after he killed them both. Sick f$$k!
Love you, Mike!
I love how his attorney says she wishes everyone had gotten to know "the Kevin Eastman" that they knew. There's only one of him, guys! And you knew he beat her viciously for years before this!

The murderer praying in the interrogation room is the most That Chapter thing ever.
Yeah. What a holy unholy thing to do. But I guess his prayers were answered.

"God, please keep Heather safe.
Love,

Thank you for shedding light on Scott's case. He was a beloved member of the music community here, and he is truly missed.
One of my best friends played bass in their band "the movers and shakers". Really hit him hard Scott seemed to be loved by a lot of people and seemed super genuine and happy with life. Sad story man ..
It was disturbing that the Lawyer was crying when he got sentenced also stating she wished everyone had got to know him as they had done! Thank you Mike as always, for all your hard work researching this case.

fantastic comment! 💚
Scott was an exceptional human being. He added so much love and light to this world. Back in the day, we would listen to some great jazz trumpet players and then play the solos ourselves to improve our own skills and chops. His passion for music was unmatched. I miss you my friend.

Surprising to see his lawyer wiping away tears during sentencing (around 30:13 ). I don't think I've ever seen that before.
Its because she lost. No one believed the crap she was putting out there
Especially over a jerk like him.
Lawyers can’t cry, due to them being extremely cold and dead inside. Something is fishy.
She was rocking the silver hair
I thought that was very weird . Also her statement at the end was weird. He was obviously guilty.

The lawyer crying at the end was ridiculous

@@sanityd1 exactly what i was thinking.
So unprofessional 🙈
So disrespectful to the victims and their families!
This lawyer is disgusting and hopefully the victims can sue her in civil court
I find it interesting that he asked her to marry him... knowing that in most states, a spouse can't be forced to testify against you. She said no. That made her a danger.
No, I'm afraid that is no longer accurate. You never watched The Sopranos?
It's not a thing anymore, spouses most definitely can be made to testify against each other when necessary but no doubt when she said no to the marriage he would have realised he then had to kill her because she was a witness and was surely going to tell the police when she got the chance.
He must have thought he could win her round by........ Murdering her new boyfriend in cold blood and forcing her to spend the following week with him, so romantic...... For a maniac!
It wouldn't have mattered either way. It would only protect during the time you're married. You don't have that privilege to not testify against them about something that happens pre-dating the marriage, which the murder would have. It also only covers what is said between the two. It would not work for actions. If he told her that he killed Scott, that would be protected and she wouldn't have to testify. If she witnessed him doing so, she would have to testify about it no matter what.
She had a pretty strong case of getting the marriage annulled, what with being held at gun point before, during and after the proposal, so not the greatest plan, lol. Also, I think the spouse has a right not to testify, but they still can, so that doesn't silence her at all.
This cretin I would like a psychological expose of. What kind of throwback rock did he grow up under? Why are there still men that think they can control a woman?
24:58 "In jail while awaiting trial he somehow turned into an old woman" LOLLL
He sure pulled the wool over his attorney's eyes. It just shows that he is a very manipulative person.
Some criminals, especially the sociopaths, are very very charming. I would think most attorneys would be wise to that, on the lookout for it, and careful to check their emotions toward any client, but perhaps this one got through those with this attorney.
Pretty disturbing that investigators had warrants for the arrests of Kevin and Heather but let her ride away with Kevin who would later kill her

This is ridiculous. Those cops got her killed. How do you not just knock on the door and ask both of them to come answer questions. You dont think she wouldve rolled on him right there? Plus they had warrants already. Terrible.
Yeah, but I think, just in case Heather, who was going about her regular business as usual after Scott's murder, wasn't in on the murder too (and wouldn't roll on the murderer)...and I think they were being followed to see where they hid the murder weapon and/or who they interacted with just after the murder of Scott...who else could have been involved. As Mike said, they barely had enough circumstantial evidence on him at the time, and wanted to get more...but you're right...would have been better if LE went in earlier. I don't know how they would have known Heather was in danger bc she acted normally and did her normal stuff, without alert the police...which she could have done indirectly. Like her co-workers said, she acted alittle nervous but not very, apparently. I was pretty impressed LE found the murderer and Heather in the 1st place, to be honest. Yeah, it's too bad LE didn't go in earlier, but I think they were getting more evidence and didn't know Heather was in danger at the time.
People put way too much faith in the police. They aren't paid enough to care...and it shows! And IMO they *don't care!*
And had they done that and not found anything? This would've just happened later. You expect cops to be predictors of crime, yet the own victim didn't even try to save herself when she had plenty of time too. Can't blame them for not knowing what even the person in the relationship refused to acknowledge. That's what's ridiculous.
Battered women typically don't talk to the police, or leave the abusive situation. Even when they do call the police, they often refuse to press charges or testify. Don't blame the cops.
Holy shit, 3 bootlickers in a row replied to your comment. Bootlickers: you are WRONG. The police had PROOF that Scott's death had occurred in Heather's house, and did not bring her in for questioning or get a search warrant for her house. They had PROOF that Kevin was involved, and did not arrest him or even bring him in for questioning. They had FUCKING ARREST WARRANTS IN HAND as they watched Kevin and Heather drive away. The police refused to do their jobs at EVERY step, because they wanted to live out their high-school-failure dreams of being spies. They are 100% responsible for Heather's death, period.
Let's hope none of you bootlickers ever lose a loved one because of police negligence like this. Will you still be defending the cops and blaming the victims in that case? Pathetic.
I watched Kevin’s entire interrogation, and it is bonkers! At first, you feel sorry for him until you realize that he did it!
Was his lawyer "invested" in him? Odd way she looked at him and the way she spoke of wishing they "knew" him the ways she/they did was not normal. She looked pained at the verdict, more than just an "Oh, poop, I lost" kind of look.
She wiped tears away.... For sure looked pretty unprofessional.
You are observant. X
Why is everyone afraid to say what's blatantly clear...
They were fucking,,,!
He probably used the fame manipulation tactics as he did with Heather. He even tried to draw some pity from the detective interviewing him with the whole rejected proposal b.s.
could be a relative.. small place.
The fact he was last traced to her apartment should have been enough for a search warrant. The police literally have video of Heather marching to her death. So incredibly infuriating!

My favorite part of the judge reading his sentencing is that he said "life in prison, but we're going to award you 883 days towards that sentence." Jeez, that was funnier than it should've been.
They do that, and I don't understand why.
What does that mean?
@@thabsilechamane3774 It's referring to "time served," which is when the time you've spent in jail during the legal process counts towards your prison sentence. So if someone commits a crime and gets sentenced to 5 years, but they spent a year and a half in jail for the whole trial, they only have 3.5 years to serve in prison.
@@thabsilechamane3774 it goes towards "time already served" while awaiting trial. If he'd gotten a 30 year sentence, it would have been 30 minus 2 plus years while he was held in jail awaited trial.

@@kathleenchaffin2591
They were adults, as far as I know.
not if you're that scared. The fact that they were watching him and he killed Heather proved that if she had went for help, she would have died anyway. Look at how he manipulated his own lawyer and had her crying at the end.
They're your kids no matter how old they are!!!
Which tells me she was guilty of murder and trying to cover up by acting like nothing had changed in her life. She sure was busy that day ,I think she wanted everyone to see her acting normally.
Why wouldn’t they immediately arrest a murder suspect when they had arrest warrants?
Also, Eastman even charmed his own attorney.. wow.
That’s one of the hallmark character traits of a sociopath or a narcissist. This is one reason why they’re such dangerous people;
because they didn't know if she was a murder suspect as well. The stupidity of people is truly astounding.
The police seriously messed up here.
They carried on watching Heather and Kevin and Heather died as a result of their inaction.
Let's face it the possible scenarios when the police were watching them were, either Kevin, jealous ex had lured the new man over to the house and killed him and Heather was an unwilling participant in the crime meaning she was now in danger herself or the two of them were working together to kill the new boyfriend but there is absolutely no motive for Heather in that scenario whatsoever so it should have been obvious that scenario number two was extremely unlikely and it was more likely Heather wasn't part of the murder and therefore very likely in danger from her unhinged ex as she was a valuable witness.
The cops should have seen this it's so obvious.
Hind sight is always 20/20. With your logic, we could actually say she got herself killed by getting involved with the looser in the first place.
@@justmythoughts6313 I'm just struggling to see what benefits the police thought they could gain by monitoring the pair over time, they already knew that one or both were involved in the murder and the most likely scenario was that the ex was the killer and Heather was an unwilling participant.
Whatever their thoughts they must have been aware that they were taking a significant risk with her life by continuing to allow them to carry on without bringing them in.
I do understand its easy for me to say with the benefit of hindsight but nonetheless they must have been aware of the possible theories and the risk to further lives being lost by choosing their course of action.
Those kids won’t have a mom now, will they?
Punctuation is your friend 😊
I mean. She was going to work, seen alive and fine with him. They really had no reason to suspect she was in danger.
You’re right about the lack of action on the part of the police. That police force should be ashamed to be such.
I started working at a DV shelter and the more I learn at my job the less surprising these stories become. Just makes me sad and numb.
A delusional, evil man takes the lives of two innocent people. The police watch them for days, with an arrest warrant in hand and yet they don't. I can't understand what they thought they would learn by tracking them instead of arresting them. So damned sad.
I think LE was tailing them, the killer and Heather (bc they didn't know she wasn't involved in the killing of Scott at her house), to get more evidence. See if they would lead LE to the murder weapon or anyone else involved...I don't think they knew Heather was scared or in danger bc she was acting "normally", apparently,
More info. An arrest warrant isn't a guaranteed stay in jail card. He could've just killed her when they got out if they didnt have enough evidence. She looked complicit, didn't even bother to save herself. Yet you expect the Leo's too. Amazing.
You'd also blame the police if they acted too quickly. He might have bailed out and fled or done even more harm. He might have gone to trial and been judged innocent for lack of evidence. PS, it is not illegal to be delusional or evil. These are judgement calls, and not valid reasons for arresting or convicting someone. If they were, we'd all be in jail, as others with different moral views would quickly place charges. Cancel culture, anyone?
pathetic policing her death is on them 100%
They wanted to play spy. Piece of shit bastards, like all cops.

Love how the judge gives a life sentence with no parole but then give credit for time served.
Poor Heather. The police were right there and could have saved her from that maniac. What a senseless tragedy
Yet...I'm amazed that she didn't try to save herself either...unless he drove her to everything she went to and drove her back. Even then, she could at the least passed a note to a co-worker or to the nail person that she was in danger and to call the police...told them everything, how he had killed Scott and where the body was...but she didn't. I'm sure she was terrified and had 3 sons to protect, but it also would have been beneficial if she alerted the police, even indirectly, herself. I don't know how the police would know that Heather wasn't just in on the murder of Scott (helped out the killer) as she appeared to go about her business as usual afterwards?
@@bettywith2girls Exactly. Its pretty hard to believe an innocent person goes through their normal routines while living at a murder scene for a week. Its also pretty hard to believe a person scared for their sons lives would go out to dinner with them, act perfectly normal, and still refuse to notify the police.
If you are scared for you, and your sons life, sitting face to face to one of them but then proceed to leave to go back home to a muderer..?? It makes no sense.
She could have reported him to the police by getting her sons with her first
She didn't even bother to save herself, yet you expect them to be what, predictors of crime? Easy to blame a job you never have to do. It's easy to criticize something we now have knowledge of afterwards. Yet they didn't at the time. It doesn't matter if he had abused her before. She didn't act like she was scared. They can't just go in for no reason and bust her out. Then the times the cops do try to help. They are demonized still by women and family who refuse to press charges and put them away. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
it's easy to have 20/20 hindsight but the cops didn't even have enough evidence to get a search warrant let alone charge anyone

I stumbled upon Mike and That Chapter late one night and I can't miss an episode now. I also always say "Tirty-Tree" at random points in my day. Thank you Mike.
Would just like to say something for the people who are confused by Heather's behaviour. Some victims come to feel that they can prevent and control their abuser's violence by obeying, because they believe that the violence is caused by them - "This never would have happened if I had done what he wanted. This is my fault." Heather probably just fell back into a survival mode of doing anything to keep Kevin from getting angry, believing that if she tried to leave like she did before, it would just result in Kevin killing someone else.
So what you're telling me is that this abusive man who just murdered her boyfriend in front of her, he was the one that suggested his "girlfriend" go get her nails done? And this woman who was so cowed into compliance and going along with her captor told him to piss off when he asked her to marry him again?
I'm not saying these things are impossible, but they really don't track with the story being presented here in my opinion. There is something off about their behaviour that does not jive with the idea that she was a helpless victim start to finish. It feels more likely to me that they were in on it together but there was a huge blowup at some point and he got rid of her as well, after the fact. It wouldn't be the first time that has happened either.
@@Person01234 i agree, it's really fishy. but i also don't want to completely dismiss the idea that she was so manipulated/traumatized/etc that she really thought everything would be ok if she just went about business as usual. the human brain has done stranger things. but again, it's very off
@@Person01234 EXACTLY!!! Society is so quick to excuse women
@@ediblefredible Its pretty hard to believe that she witnessed he new boyfriend being murdered in front of her and she just kept going to work for a week. The only possibility I can think of that she didnt get help was maybe if Kevin was holding her kids hostage and threating to kill them.. Still, you'd think anyone would have tried to seek some sort of help in that situation. She doesnt seem as innocent as Mike tries to paint her in this seemingly nonsensical story.
@@DownHillSkateTime oh i also personally don't think it adds up and she wasn't innocent. just thinking out loud i suppose lol, but you have a fair point i'm only going off this one vid
the emergency dispatcher did a nice job. sounded composed & compassionate. What a horrific discovery 😢
What an horrific man. Jealousy caused him to take the life of two innocent people. So so sad .

@@ALCRAN2010 You didn’t use quotations in your PSA and it made this hard to read
I'm surprised Heather's family haven't charged the Greely police department with a wrongful death suit. Clearly if they had moved quicker with a search warrant for her place she'd still be alive and more questions answered.
The old lady comment cracked me up. Mike always has a way of introducing some humour into these gruesome cases!!
I love you too Mike !! A talented man who brought so much joy to people through his music, killed because of jealousy.
Remember, when the psycho who has you against your will asks if you want to get married, you say YES.
Stall for any time you can get!
Some people are really dumb and take no responsibility. She probably just autopilotted through life. Why else do you take a multi-time abuser back over and over?
@@shadowmage661 the point is buy some time then _go to the police at your FIRST chance!_
@ConfusedOilPainter I believe he stayed in house with her children whilst she ran errands as a form of control of her, he probably even threatened to harm them as well.
@@avaforshort681 Doesn't Mike say in the video that after Scott was killed she went out to dinner with her son and his girlfriend? If so, then that coupled with the fact that her son claimed that she seemed "normal" after Scott died/before she was killed indicates that her kids had no clue what was going on, may have been old enough to defend themselves better than if they were still literal children, and were likely living elsewhere. There's something really off about all this and I'm not sure that I fully buy the whole "she was forced/her kids were threatened" story, especially when considering that she went about her daily routine as if nothing had ever happened.
My psychotic ex said yes after manipulating me to ask her. Sorry, yes she said when I asked her to make me the happiest man in the world... that followed by telling me she didn't believe in any of the wedding vows after a visit from an incest relationship of hers
Is that attorney serious right now? She wishes we could meet the Kevin that they knew? The same one with warrants for domestic assault? She needs to find a new career because she’s not very good at her job. Everyone knows it’s not the person you meet that you should worry about, it’s who they are behind closed doors.
Just because Heather did normal activities, doesn't mean she felt ok. Shed already tried to escape the guy brutalising her. By that point, I'm sure she was terrified, trapped & acting normal hoping she wouldnt be murdered. I wonder if he killed her just so she couldnt date while he was in prison..
I agree she was probably also afraid to go to police because either they wouldn't believe her , leave her unprotected, or even charge her with the murder. It's a terrifying position to be in especially if you're brainwashed and knowing you can't slip, make him mad, paranoid or any little thing to make him kill you too.
Absolutely agree. I don't think she'd ever be able to escape Kevin. Heartbreaking
@@Scarethelocals He probably threatened to hurt her kids if she went to the police. It's the only thing that makes sense.
Yeah I'd be freaking terrified. Not only had she got away, but he came back. Found her new boyfriend and killed him?
Surely from then on she'd be in survival mode.
True but she convinced him to come back after he left and tried to get over the relationship
Why on earth was his lawyer shedding a tear like his guilty verdict was a travesty of justice. Was she sad that we didn't get to know the real man behind the murders like his victims did! As if his rap sheet/record didn't tell us all what an abusive violent man he really was. Great vid Mike . Defence lawyers honestly!
Hey! Soon, if we lucky, will hear that his lawyer and him are married and sooooo muchhhh in loveeee 😂😂😂😂
Kevin's probably got a big one, that's why 🌭
She was throwin it back for him
Aside from the great content that Mike consistently delivers.... It's his genuine personality and sincere appreciation that he has for his viewers that keeps me coming back. Mike, you're an absolute legend! ❤❤❤
Wow. He’s one creepy mother lover. He didn’t even flinch at the trial. And….seriously made my stomach turn when his lawyer was shedding a tear 😬
Also- congratulations on your wedding Mike 😊🥳
How much crazy bs did people get away with before cell phones
🤣🤣🤣
Yay! Today is my birthday and I am so happy and excited to get an episode from That Chapter!
We love you, Mike! Thank you for all you do!
Happy Birthday Kalani Fergus and many Blessings to you wishing you a wonderful Day .Thank you💐🎂🍰🍾🥂🎈🎉
Scott seems like someone you'd love to know. A really good guy. It's really really sickening. What a waste.
His lawyer was more upset then he was
Godddd I know how strong coercion from a violent spouse can be. I can’t imagine how terrifying it must have been for Heather that week. Goddddd I just wish she was able to lowkey call the cops. I wonder if she had any idea how bad it was going to get for her, or if she was working on a plan or if she thought he would eventually loosen the reins and then she would go for help. For all we know Kevin was always right outside her job, or when she went shopping or got her nails done or whatever. Maybe he always was watching or made her feel like he was always watching. Possibly he instructed her to do her normal routine as to not raise any suspicion. It’s just so frustrating that they had her under surveillance alive and they arrested him basically immediately after he murdered her.
He probably knew her kids and where they lived and worked. I’m sure he put them under threat as well if he felt she was trying to slip out of his grasp.
Mike has such great comedic timing. Gotta love him!
I find him annoying and disrespectful.

Abuse is the new normal. Once a person is abused over a long period of time the victim learns to act normally away from the abuser
GREAT JOB COPS. They had an entire week to save Heather.
His lawyer is tearing up at the end, amazing....
I understand that the police thought Heather was involved with Scott's murder but I truly wish they had arrested them both earlier. It seems like such a small easy thing to have done to avoid another senseless murder. Hind sight being 20/20 and all that.
