Couple of corrections to this story, this is from someone close to the case.
- Jared robbed Ashley in 2013, not 2011
- Mario decided to check the basement after a friend of Ashley's started looking through the trash outside for her. A saw blade was found
- James and Barbara weren't arrested. They walked in to be booked and bonded out immediately
- Part of Ashley wasn't burned in the fire pit, no one knows what happened (except the obvious)
- Barbara only served 29 days, James 14
- Ashley's parents are offering a cash reward for information leading to the return of Ashleys remains
Thanks Mike! We all appreciate such precision, even with the travesty of the mere days that Barbara and James received.
How is it possible to help conceal a murder and get that for a sentence. Not equivalent
Mike! Loves the channel! I’m sure you are at no loss for material , but take a look into Luke Woodham in a little town In Mississippi. I actually lived through this a one. Was my freshman year of high school!
@@tomrl6674 Special consideration might have been taken do to the fact that they were his parents. What the two of them did was obviously wrong, but they did it to protect their son. I don't think they had anything to do with the homicide itself. Anyone with kids can probably relate (at least a little.) The fact that they helped cut up the body makes it a lot harder to have any sympathy for them though.
Love everything about your way of telling these frime. Keep up the great work.🌟🌟🌟
Ashley’s mum being told she would never have kids, then miraculously having Ashley, only for her to be murdered by a complete monster in this way aswell. . Truly horrific I’m so sorry she had to go through that
That tore my heart to pieces.
Her statement even got Jared's own defense attorney to cry. That was heartbreaking to listen to.
@@amityislandchum I saw that. This is so sad...
Wanted to cry. Just terrible.
@John Jones its called *'""emotions""'* try it some time.
When Ashley's mom gave the speech to that human garbage. I felt that. I felt the rage.
Yes I felt that too and did you see him, he didn't even react just stood there smug...... I think motive was: he wanted her so bad but she would never give it up to him so he killed her so he could take her from the world.
It was funny not gonna lie
I felt the rage and the deep sorrow
@@neverburyyourenenmiesalive That was actually funny to you? Jesus
@@emiliyah8890 classic case of "if I can't have you, no one can". Mom earned that rage.
A month in prison for destroying a body and covering up the crime and refusing to say where her body is!? Un-fucking-acceptable!
its now 200 years lol
That's called privilege
When your defence lawyer is in tears listening your victim's mother you know you’ve done something vile. His whole family are pretty disgusting and his parents got off far too lightly no matter what his father did for a job. Surely his dad should lose his pension for this behaviour. His mother sounds as sorry as the average person is when they bump into someone in a shop.
Please don’t get into a relationship with a person thinking 'you can change them', the only person you can change is yourself.
Yea, a lot of people give defense lawyers shit for the people they have to defend as if they always wanted to defend pieces of shite as their dream job since childhood or something, but for the majority of them, it’s a job that someone has to do. Like a dirty job, basically - things normal people wouldn’t want to do or couldn’t bring themselves to do, but a job that has to be done no matter what because everyone in the US deserves the right to a fair trial. No matter how heinous, they have a right to be represented. The people going into that field know they’re taking a risk and know that a lot of their cases will be lost, but they have to pretend to try.
Seeing that grown man stand there next to his client in tears as the mother read her victim impact statement I think says it all, and he probably felt a lot of pain and guilt himself for having to defend such a POS. I don’t think he’s losing sleep for losing that case for his client at all, and I wouldn’t blame him one bit if he breathed a sigh of relief that the verdict was given in the manner that it was.
As for the parents, I think it’s safe to say that connections played a part. They knew someone somewhere that lightened that slap on the wrist even more. Makes you wonder what else has been covered up with that bunch.
Yea, I kinda felt bad for that guy..probably a first for a lawyer lol.. kind of a rough spot to be in though. Someone Has to defend these "people". Its kinda nice to know some lawyers are human.
@@TwoBs Well said on the lawyer. I felt for the guy No Doubt.
I realised that the saying A leopard never changes its spots is true. I thought my husband would change time and again but he never did to his last breath. He's dead now but he remained abusive and a spendthrift all his life. Now I'm old, poor and struggling with cancer. My only relief is he died two weeks ago. I couldn't even divorce him.for various reasons mainly the lack of money. Never think a person will change because of kindness or love or you.
oh look 20:50, such a kind lawyer patting the cold-blooded killer's shoulder to comfort him which he clearly doesn't deserve.
The parents carried and burned her dead limbs and only got 45 days and probation? That's absurd..
That badge has mighty powers
It had nothing to do with a badge. The guy was no longer a cop and hadn’t been for a while. And the mom was never a cop so?? They got off lightly because they lawyered up and because the prosecution made the disgusting deal to keep a higher conviction rate and lower court costs..
@@colleenwhitman9040 what ever you gotta tell yourself
As opposed to her live limbs?
@@BalboaBaggins found the incel 😏
One of my favorite things about this channel is that Mike doesn't act like so many other true crime channels and try to narrate his videos in a preposterous, over the top attempt at a "creepy voice."
Thank you, humor not a weird "" compassion voice ""
Yes! Totally
* tings
Imagine him say turty tree very very slowly trying to be creepy! 😂
@Kevin...Exactly! I can't even watch other crime videos, they just don't compare.
Can we all just take a minute to appreciate Mario for his bravery and decision to do the right thing in spite of what must have been terrifying? Imagine looking in a dark creepy basement for a body knowing that the killer lives upstairs and doesn’t want it found.
Makes me wonder how many times the dad broke the law while being a cop. SMH.
Can you imagine how dirty of a cop his dad was? How many countless people suffered under his badge. SMH.
Why because he helped is son? Please..
@@lawrencegray5403 anyone willing to do what he did isn’t a good person PERIOD. He never helped his son, he failed his son. Garbage breeds garbage. Stop defending bad people.
@@lawrencegray5403 ummmm yes
@@lawrencegray5403 bruh is this a family member of theirs? Lmao
@@advert25 i didnt say he was a good person, i just said helping your son is an instinct that doesnt necessarily transfer over to being a very dirty cop or making ppl suffer under his badge. ...its reprehensible, but, he didnt help kill her right? Just attempted to help him avoid detection? All I'm saying is a lot parents who arent generally bad people just might do the same.
Jared’s parents saying “sorry” is absolutely meaningless.
IF they were actually sorry they would tell that poor mother where the rest of her daughter is. His parents are as bad as him in my eyes.
My man got less time for destroying part of a GIRLs body than people get for non violent drug possession cuz he’s a pig
They burned that poor girls hands, feet and head and the mom had the audacity to say, “I’m sorry for how things happened.”
Sorry for how things happened? How about you’re sorry you raised a monster and disposed of a woman’s body.
@WiLD CHiLD White cop privilege in particular.
They sure as hell weren’t sorry helping their son get rid of some of her remains
I knew Ashley when I lived in Allendale, Michigan on the outside of Grand Rapids. She was dating a buddy of mine who was living in a college town house back in 2013. His name was Moody. Great guy. She was a really kind person with a big heart. I was really shocked to hear she was murdered especially in this fashion. We all shared many meals together in those town houses and threw some real fun parties with our friends. RIP❤
She had a big heart but a small brain. She thought any criminal psycho is a "victim of circumstances" and can be "reformed".
The fact that helping dispose of a corpse carries a max 5 year sentence but perjury carries a max life sentence is disgusting. Lying to a government, who constantly lies to us should not be seen as worse than the end of a human beings life.
i agree with you 100%. i can understand how lying to detectives to cover up or impede a murder investigation, or filing a false police report, is illegal and should carry some sort of punishment.
as for perjury, i can also understand its' illegality, especially if the act of lying under oath results in a dangerous criminal being found not guilty and being set free to harm more people. but even if that's the case, life in prison is what murderers are sentenced for literally KILLING. lying is not the same as murdering!
'life in prison' for perjury compared to the absurdly light sentence of 5 years for disposing a human body is ridiculous and quite backwards. how is lying under oath worse than desecration of a corpse?! again, even if those lies result in a murderer being found not guilty, it's a bit extreme to give the life sentence to the liar as a replacement for the murderer, right?
Wow those parents and that son are horrible. They can't even tell the mother of the victim where the rest of her daughter is.
Women having terrible taste in men, what else is new.
@@clementine2001 Oh God. XD My eyes
🙏👼
That is real mean...
His father disposed the rest of her!,sonny bubbles not the full quid.
Even Jareds lawyer is trying not to cry as the mom yells at him.
I think he was crying.
Any human being would...I cried.
Got me in the feels as well.
Yeah nah I don't think he was eh
I agree, the lawyer felt for his client, not the mother. He was rubbing his shoulder the whole time during the sentence reading.
My heart goes out to Ashley’s mum. So much suffering… there’s nothing more painful than the lost of a child.
Yeah
Her only one.
This was all super crazy and disturbing. I knew Jared for a long time before all of this happened. I met him back in 2004 or 2005. He used to come to my house. I wasn't super close to him, but he was close friends with a lot of my close friends. When I heard about this I was extremely shocked. Deep condolences to Ashley's family.
"We're so sorry"....my ASS, woman! If you're so sorry, help Christine find some peace & tell her where the rest of her daughter's remains are.
My heart breaks for her mother 💔
@Eventual Visitor God damn! I didn't expect that.
I can't believe his parents didn't get longer. Absolutely disgusting. RIP angel
Meanwhile, some people are doing life for marijuana distribution... Welcome to America ma friends.
Cop. What do you expect? We just had one arrested for drunk driving in her cruiser, in her uniform, which she was wearing off duty because her lover liked it when they screwed in her uniform. She had smashed into a guys fence, rolled up into his yard, was too drunk to stand up. Got nothing.
Where is Women's Lives Matter when you need them?
You can’t believe a cop didn’t get in trouble for disposing of a kids head, arms and feet?? Have you been paying attention to ANYTHING with the criminal justice system and police at all?
And non cops can have a friend borrow their car and kill someone and the dude who lent them the car gets a life sentence even though they weren’t involved with the actual killing
They have eternity in Gehenna all is well
I'm actually in tears because of Ashley's mother. Sadly, though, none of her words even phased him. I'm not trying to be a downer but my brother's a psychiatrist and people like that don't care when you scream at their face. If anything he got off on it and he thought he had "won". If it was catharsis for her then I hope that she got some kind of relief, however small. But if anybody reads this know when you're dealing with narcissists, sociopaths, or both showing them your pain like this does nothing except give them their jollies. The best way to get at them is to make them feel like they are unremarkable, unmemorable, unintelligent. A narcissists and sociopaths worst fear is to be deemed unremarkable or ordinary in any way.
May God not have mercy on his soul. Even as a Christian I know I shouldn't say that but I can't bring myself to wish any type of Mercy on him.
The compounding levels of injustice in this case magnify the wickedness of this case. First, Jared returned horrific evil for Ashley's tremendous compassion. Second, Jared's parents worsened the crime by making it harder to execute justice and by depriving Ashley's family of healing closure. Finally, the judge magnified the injustice by giving insufficient punishment to Jared's parents.
The fact that the judge let her go off on him like that says a lot. Normally, any outburst in the court is a no-go.
Yes even with victim impact statements. I'm so glad she got to say it to him. She probably cried out in agony so many times before she was so strong to face him.
They typically don't allow you to berate the victim and her mother expertly avoided doing so. She yelled but everything she said was about her own feelings and experiences. It was surprisingly measured which is why I expect the court allowed it.
@@abebuckingham8198 - The victim? The victim in this case was her daughter.
The mom screaming at him was so justified, so raw and honest. I'm so glad that was permitted. even sanctioned.
Me too
Same, I wouldn’t want to be on the receiving end of such a tone
Yeah, I’m pretty sure that was the defense lawyer who had to wipe his eyes. Powerful.
SHE DESERVED EVERY MOMENT OF IT... 100%!
@@emmettgraves4925 that hit me hard, too. That poor mother 💔
As a member of Ashley's family, thank you. He was a piece of shite, but she always saw the best (including me). I'm glad that someone finds this worthy of telling after the initial press run. Good on you. I don't want this disgusting piece of American History to be forgotten.
The reason why that monster became gradually more and more of a monster is his parents. They never held him accountable. If parents can cover for their little monster and carry bits and pieces of another person's child in a box, then there isn't anything they can't or haven't already covered.
They deserved to be discontinued.
They deserve to be discontinued.
I actually cried when her mom yelled at him. That poor lady.
Me too.
The sheer agony in her voice....heartbreaking
Me too! Just commented on her poor mom😥💕
Here to say "same" 😢
She was more calm than I would have been! Bless her heart and bless her Angel!
I'm not ashamed to admit that I shed a tear when Christine was ripping Jared a new one in court. Even his lawyer had to wipe his eyes.
I noticed that, too. Trying to maintain composure.
You could feel her pain and anger, it made me sad no one should feel like that.
Wonder, I wish she'd been able to do what she said she wanted to..."rip him from limb to limb."
@@ice9594 Right? It wouldve been a very fitting punishment
Yes! Made me cry!
Those parents should have done a minimum of 5 years in prison (for each one). Absolutely heartbreaking. I pray for her mother, family and friends.
His parents should have gone to jail for much longer. I think it shocking that they helped their son cover up a murder.
Hi TC. Why did his parents not do any time in prison for being accessories after the fact? It almost seems as if this was a set up scheme against her family, probably for no reason other than them being liars. Like your channel & hopefully watch again. Peace to you & all, love, Janine Smiley✌👍🆒️☕🍩🆒️☕🥧🆒️☕🍰🙂😀😎😏😉🦓🦄🚘🎡🎢🎠💒🌝🌞🌚🌜🌛🏡
Jared's lawyer back there crying and nodding when Ashley's mother screams says it all I think.
You'd hope that would be an "ah ha" moment for him when he realizes, "You know, I should probably stop being a scumbag defense attorney trying to get worthless pieces of crap off on horrific crimes."
@@musewithscissors2069 these cases actually ruined their reputation so unless friend with parents or they got paid dump truck money then yes
@@musewithscissors2069 could he have been court appointed?
@@musewithscissors2069 see that isn't right either. Of course it sucks that these scumbags have an attorney but that also means that their basic human rights are still very much in place, which is a good thing. Even though he is a monster. He still is a human being and deserves to have a defense. Its the job of the rest of the court system to make sure it that them having an attorney doesn't do shit for them when they are guilty. So lets not blame attorneys for doing their job. Im sure as it is, it aint fun all the time to do this.
This is the scumbags fault. Lets not deflect because we are angry. Having that raw emotion thrown into your direction by that poor mother must have been tough for that attorney. Glad that piece of shit wont get out of jail ever now.
@@musewithscissors2069 You can't blame a defense attorney for doing his/her job since everyone has a right to fair trial.
Ashley’s mother’s righteous rage made me cry. And then his parents’ weak ass apology so gross.
I binge true crime and all stories like it and nothing has ever brought me to immediate tears like Ashley’s moms words. They just hit me in my core and I got goosebumps. Know I that this was the first time I’ve just broken down over the words of the victims family makes me hate Jared even more for just sitting there and not showing any sympathy
I thought the EXACT same thing about both- I cried too- such pain... and the pathetic blank look and empty apology given..,
@@spartan89988 💯💯 I am a true crime person too, and nothing has affected me so quickly like the rage of Christine Young. I was so proud of her. I would love to tell her that, but I don’t even want to remind her of this POS.
@@spartan89988 this had the same effect on me. I rarely cry watching victim impact statements or statements of family. But this had me crying right when she started.
I remember when the father of Ashley stayed at my hotel I was following the case then he checks in and tells me who he is. All I could do is offer him a free drink at the bar and listen to him as that case proceeded. I could feel the pain everyday he walked through my doors. I hope she found peace on the other side.
@Artemist Grim
Thank you for being an ear for him. You likely gave him quite a bit of comfort in so doing.
Then helping him just tells me why he was a disgusting excuse for wasting oxygen
Hearing Ashley‘s mother yell at him. I think all criminals need that kind of face-to-face with the mother of victims.
That’d be giving the criminals too much satisfaction. Better to lock them in a room with the families for some time and anything goes.
I am surprised that the judge let it. Too many times the judge censors the family.
@@TheFraggler they're entitled to victim impact statements
@@DumpsterFairy97 I know. But some judges don't allow the victims to talk at the criminals, or use foul language. That's what I'm saying. I don't think it's fair to stop them from making an impact, you know?
His lawyer was even wiping away tears thinking about his children and having defended this PoS
Even Jared's lawyer was crying when Ashley's mom was talking to Jared. That hit me on a different level.
Fck your right ....
Not all lawyers have it easy :/
Jared doesn't seem smart enough to think to hide Ashley's identifiable parts. That was all the dad and moms doing. I can't believe they just basically got to walk away Scott free! Did the police check their premises thoroughly, do they have a holiday home, a farm, etc. Just like the Laundries but much worse. Smh Nothing stays hidden forever so hopefully the rest of Ashley's remains will be located one day.
This makes me SO damn angry - I hope Ashley's mum sues Jared's parents for every damn cent they have. 14 & 29 days for _knowingly helping their son cover up a murder???_ I've seen people jailed for years for 'accessory' when they were literally under threat of their own life! So much for law enforcement being held to a higher standard... and this went way beyond protective parents too, his father _knew_ his son committed a grievous crime to an innocent young woman who was trying to _help_ the useless piece of shit that _they_ had raised & done nothing about. Even their other son had more of a moral compass than his parents. It's revolting. Thoughts with Ashley's mum & RIP Ashley 💜🤍💜
I’m really glad Ashley’s mother didn’t hold back, usually victim’s families are too forgiving when they don’t have to be at all, especially considering he essentially rubbed salt in her wounds by forcing this to go to trial just to prevent her being able to bury her daughter.
Yeah hes a real bastard
@@neverburyyourenenmiesalive he looks like he has an iq of about 12 he probably doesn't remember plus being a druggie wont help
Usually courts don’t let you do this .. if the defense attorney objects to it... then the judge makes them stop
@@PoptartParasol wow your soo great
@@ginagina9592 yeah for a reason tho
I'm all for being a supportive parent, but I think when your kid's committed murder, its time to give up
Exactly right
Helping him turn himself in WOULD have been the supportive thing to do. I can’t imagine ever being so callous as to think that my child’s lies are more important than another family’s peace.
Well said
@@SessVlogs it would if there is any chance at rehabilitation. It isn't much supportive when your prison system is so unappologetic. Admitting to a crime in the US is idiotic.
For real
I am a parent. I love my children without end. That being said, never would I ever help them cover up their crimes. I would have no remorse or guilt calling police to report what I knew. In fact, my 32 year old son is awaiting trial for his own piss poor choices. I say it's exactly where he needs to be. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. I hope they can find the rest of Ashley's remains one day.
That victim impact statement by her mom is one of the most genuine I've ever seen. I know everyone experiences and processes grief differently and often don't want to give the killer even more of themselves by showing extreme pain. But I can't imagine being calm while addressing someone who murdered someone I love. I give Christine kudos for laying into him like that. He deserves it. I hope she finds some semblance of peace. Rest in peace, Ashley. 🕊
Started crying when Ashley’s mom started yelling. She has been through so much. I hope she finds peace somehow
Same! Even the attorney seemed to be holding back tears
Instant tears
Heartbreaking
I dont have it in me to feel sad for her
Its just the way i am
Jared looks like he did EVERYTHING that anybody ever said he did.
Lmao spot on girl
Man right??
@@Positive_affirmations3 I posted that as soon as Mike posted Jared's pic..I was like whoaaaa..he did it..all of it.!!😩🤣
@@Leoprincess3038 He has that crazy freaky uncle meth head thing look going on ..🥴😂
I actually snort laughed. You’re so right 😂😂
This case makes me wish that you could charge these monsters with a charge that you can torture the killers like they way they torture their victims
The mothers statement to him absolutely broke my heart I’ve never cried so hard
The real heroes are the three roving guys with baseball bats. Probably the only time this guy had ever been held accountable for his actions in his life.
Maybe they could pay him another visit
I was cracking up when he said that.. I knew it was probably drug related but they did a job thing anyways.🤣
Mr. Ryan they should visit his parents next
@@millsmami Maybe Jared was selling them the shit he kept OD'ing on. Maybe he made one of theirs OD. Maybe he told the cops where he got the stuff he OD'd on. Who knows
@@hansolo631 he prob would have been selling for them, when they came to collect he didn't have the cash cause he took more than he sold.
Her mom made me sob. I'm so glad she was able to actually express herself
Absolutely! I've heard of cases where they tell the family of the victim to remain calm and respectful towards to POS during their victim impact statement (pardon if that's not the proper term) and that is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS! They have every single right to say WHATEVER they feel! I'm so glad she was able to get that out. I wish she was able to take some of her rage out on him properly!
He should have been handed over to her to do as she wished
@@MystiDawn do you remember the father that asked the judge "I just want 5 minutes alone with him." "Just 5 minutes" then charges the defendant? That would be me!
I'm guessing the man next to him during that was his lawyer and even his lawyer couldn't hold back the tears
Oh me too. Sweet lady
i just wanna know why he did it. like it’s so weird it seems like he didn’t have a reason
I've never been so mad at the outcome of one of these cases. I can't imagine that his parents are out & about, no consequences to their actions. Ashley's mom is my hero for the way she spoke to him. God be with her.
His mother seems completely unapologetic. She was going to take care of her precious psychopath no matter the cost to another family.
Yep- I mean...damn.. I love my child and will love him no matter what.. but at the same time..I'm not going to enable him with a fucking murder. Absolutely crazy.
"Her precious psychopath" sent me
No wonder she raised a psychopath
@Yardbirds 68 I find it hilarious there are people like all of you that are high and mighty but have probably never been in a truly compromising situation before. No one knows what they going to do or how they’ll act when these things are actually happening in real time and having a material effect on them.
Yep. The parents seem a bit sociopathic themselves. They should be behind bars for the next 30 years.
The way his parents “apologised” to Ashley’s mum 😬 so casual they sounded like they were talking about which day the bins need to go out, absolute monsters
They didn't. That video is their sentencing. They hide from all of us. We go to their home with posters and they still dont come out and say anything
@@evamolina2191 I'm assuming that you are related in some way to that beautiful angel. I am so very sorry for your loss. I can't imagine.. I'm sure Ashley is so proud of her family and friends, never giving up and fighting for her justice. You and yours will be in my thoughts and prayers for strength.🕯
Probably a good time for them to just keep their mouth shut.
@@evamolina2191 You could paint yellow arrows pointing to their home in the street to go with the posters...
Of course, it snows a lot in Michigan, it would be a shame if a contractor spilled roofing nails from their truck every month or two...
And his dad was an ex cop?! They were sorry for “ what happened”!! Like it was an accident or some shit. They couldn’t even say they were sorry for what their son DID.
His parents ‘protected’ their son from a crime. That mother never got even a chance to protect her daughter from a deranged criminal. EFFED UP on way too many levels. 💔💔💔
The parents deserve major jail time too... smh
Jared’s mother’s apology couldn’t have sounded more insincere.
On one hand an unarmed citizen can be "justifiably" shot DEAD for expired tags but then a retired cop who helps his son dispose of pieces of a dead body ONLY gets *30 days?* 🤔
Ashley's mother😭💔😭💔As a mother,I can't even imagine 😭💔Thankful she got to tell that pos how she felt! Jared's parents, despicable!!!!
It’s disgusting how little time the parents received.
They actually served less than the sentence. Barbara did 29 days and James did 14
@WiLD CHiLD yeah black people never get away with stuff, OJ Simpson, Jessie Smollet.....
Don’t worry they will rot in helll
@WiLD CHiLD it was a white woman who died. sigh Im all for blm but this shit gets old.
"Basic bitchness of criminality" iconic.
Just imagine the things he did when he was a cop ... Just. Imagine.
I was thinking the same thing. All of his old cases should be looked at again. No way he wasn’t corrupt af!
you bet
Spot on
Especially out in that area of Michigan...
Who polices the police? One of the great questions of all time.
I would really hate being a lawyer and having to be the killer's lawyer. This is such a heartbreaking case. Ashley and her family didn't deserve this
I honestly don't know how Ashley's mom kept her composure in front of that monster without running to him and slaming him against the wall.
Notice how barbara does not take any ownership through her language “I’m sorry this happened.” Not...”I’m sorry I raised a psychopath, aided and abetted in the abuse of a corpse, didn’t call the police immediately when my demon spawn told me he had killed a woman...” And that is exactly why jared is what he is. That the parents got essentially no punishment is disgusting.
Blechhh "I wish I could have done things differently..." Bitch, I have a LIST
Permissive parenting at it's finest! Those 2 should have gotten life as well. They covered for him and helped him to become was he was and to not just admit it and return that girls whole body to her mom is unforgivable. I hope karma catches up with them!
Would it make a difference if we held parents accountable for the crimes of their children? I think so. I also believe that parenting should be taught in school.
0 emotion in her voice, they should be locked up.
They will in the afterlife on judgement day. they will be sent straight to the devils den with the rest of people who got away with murder, and being an accessory to crimes.
Imagine being Ashley’s mom, forever searching for her daughter’s head, hands, and feet. How agonizing must it be every day, coming up empty. That is the worst torture
I'm assuming based on the fact they burned some of the remains, and apparently just hadn't yet gotten to the others, but I assume it was their intention to burn them as well, that - not to be too morbid - I don't think there other remains existing that weren't just scattered ashes/pieces left over from burning them. It's definitely salt in the wound of already having killed her though, to put it lightly.
@@JET7C0 There should still be bones somewhere, as I doubt they were able to make a fire hot enough to turn bone to ash. Unless, they had access to some sort of incinerator, which should be looked into.
Knowing that, at any time, on any day, until you die, you could get a call saying "we've found another piece of Ashley" must be horrible - there's no end in site for this ordeal, no completion, no closure. I don't know how her friends and family will move on.
I can appreciate ppl like the neighbors who hunted for the death smell, found it, then called the cops ❤️🙏🏽!!! If it weren't for those lovely people Ashley probably never would have been found...... Good/GREAT 👍🏼 😏 People!!!
Mom had me in tears. This is a despicable family. Instead of disciplining their drug-infested child, out him on rehab or make him have a taste of what prison is like, Ashley would still be alive. Instead, they condoned and protected him althroughout his evil ways. It's the coldest "I'm sorry" I've ever heard from the Mom.
I think he won't tell them anything more because it would incriminate his family further. I can guarantee you the parents know more.
When Ashley's mother started yelling, that truly broke my soul. Poor parents did not deserve this, RIP Ashley ❤️🕊
There's so much pain in the world. It really is overwhelming.
Even his attorney was trying not to cry, he even did a little bit. You could see him choking up. Sad.
I cried listening to Ashley's mum, how cruel that he wont disclose where the rest of Ashley is and his parents mg despicable and so was their pathetic sentence, if my son came to me having done that, I would have reported him, beyond comprehension.
Not gonna lie, it hurt to hear her...I teared up
I bet his parents have never shouted at him like that . Parents like that usually make all about them and how they’re going to face the neighbours but never discipline. They just bail them out and sweep it under the carpet.
When Jared was arrested and when they uncuffed him he was OBVIOUSLY high as a kite on heroin or opiates. I really think jared probably needed/wanted drugs and Ashley wasn't willing to pay for them and he probably attacked her then. Or he tried robbing her and she threatened to call the cops and he flipped out. My heart breaks 💔 for the friends and family. I can't believe they let the parents off like that ESPECIALLY taking the youngest son along omfg it's no wonder their son is fkd up!! They should've lost that child. I can't imagine how he feels knowing what happened. We needed tougher laws PERIOD. And I definitely support the death penalty.
Omg can you imagine going down to that basement and finding a tarp covered in blood??? The thought brings me full body shivers and nausea.
He knew he could call his parents. That in it self speaks volumes. The whole lot is piss poor morally.
The brother Conrad seemed to be trying to do the right thing
@@michael-h8153 he is the key to getting the info about her remains.
My parents have always been understanding and I know they love me more than words. That being said if I did something like this they would flip to the cops IMMEDIATELY. As you should...
Looks like the apple obviously didn’t fall far from the tree in this case!!!
His dad being a retired cop is frightening. Obviously he's piss poor morally like you said and who knows what awful things he got away with over the decades.
Edit: I also gotta say the victim impact statement Ashley's mom gave was the best one I've ever seen. I hope it was cathartic and that she can find some peace.
What kind of parents help cover up a crime like that! That’s disgusting. They should all be in jail.
Ya I gotta say I would do almost anything for my child but if my kid call me like Dad I killed an innocent person ima say welp it was nice knowing u lol
They found Ashley’s skin in the sink trap, I think they were literally going to hacksaw her into pieces and send her down the garbage disposal.... 🤢🤮 how sickening. At what point is too much for these parents 🤦♂️
@@CoffeeBrainzz those people are idiots then because theres Far Easier ways to get rid of a body. Batter acid in a special container - problem solved. but then again, intelligent people dont generally help their child cover-up a fucking murder. smh
Agree 100%
Pity
22:18 the Mom's speech was so powerful, I started tearing up. You can hear the emotion in her voice. I don't even believe in God but I could sense a powerful energy from within her, as if God was speaking through her and directly judging Jared, personally guaranteeing him his own grimey place in hell for what he's done.
Ashley was so beautiful inside and out. She looks like someone I would have been friends with. My heart shattered when the scene of her mother screaming at the murderer came on, so much heart break and pain. RIP Angel Ashley, look over your mama who loves you so much xxx
He had nothing to say for himself. Truly pathetic.
Oh, and let’s not forget his parents: phony, heartless, and should be ashamed of themselves.
I want a law that will punish parents for enabling their terrible children
@@mandalorianhunter1 there is but they got away with it

I respect the simple fact ThatChapter does not beg for “likes”, “subscriptions” and to join 10 other services. It’s actually a huge breath of fresh air and he seems hella wholesome. Straight to the point, I dig it.
He and deadbug says are my favorite.
@@Gioachina0279 DeadBug rocks!
That is why I always like the videos and I am actually subbed
You hit the nail on the head: no pandering, no begging and he’s appreciative of his followers. He lets his content speak for itself.
Mike is my favorite true crime reporter. No one else like him
I love how you sneak in the literary references Mike. "Because, because"! 🧙
There’s no way he truly thought he could get away with this! 31 years was a gift and he stupidly denied it
Her mom crying out in pain and disgust to Jared brought tears to my eyes....powerful victim impact statement.
Yes, this was more affecting that Sharon Tate's mothers confrontation with Ted Watson.
Jared’s Mom isn’t sorry, just sorry she got caught!
Agree!
That video was their sentencing. The never, and i mean not one single time, even attempted to apologize or do the right thing. They have never said a word! They laughed in our faces at court for 19 months! Laughing at her mother's pain, laughing at all of us that loved her.
Someone always says this about people who get caught for anything. What evidence is this based on?
If they were socio/psychopaths, they wouldn't have helped their son, because it was entirely to their detriment, and he, as someone who IS likely a manipulative psychopath, appealed to their empathy, and begged and pleaded for their help. And they were very stupid and helped him. That's why they put up with him their whole lives. That's not how psychopaths act...it just isn't. They likely had empathy, and they likely felt bad for what they did. Doesn't make it OK, doesn't mean they should've done it, doesn't mean they aren't bad people for doing it.
There's no specific reason to think they don't actually feel bad about what they did. It's human nature to do stupid shit and feel bad for it. Yep - even really really, really, awful stuff. Especially when a family member is emotionally manipulating you into doing it. Not an excuse, just an explanation.
@ Eva Molina so sorry for your loss.
Weak apology. Seemed put off by having to do it.
The fact there was never any motive……
Love the content. Thanks for uploading!
Rest in Peace Ashley. I’m so sorry you had to endure what you did. Life truly is cruel. It’s always the good people who are taken advantage of.
Wow listening to Ashley's mother gave me chills. I could feel her anger, I hope she is learning to heal. ❤
With the amount Jared was in trouble with the law before this, you just know his dad was using his badge to pull strings behind the scenes to keep Jared out of more serious consequences. The parents did everything to enable his horrific behavior long before Ashley. It was only a matter of time before Jared figured they would help him out with murder too.
Spot on.
The parents are disgusting. They should’ve gotten years, not days in jail. Corrupt justice system.
They're not parents. Parents don't cover up their kids murder. Maybe a friend or a spouse might, but not a real parent. I love my kids to death, but no way I'd ever consider covering up a murder. Like I said, parent!
I'd say decade(s).
@Nah mate lol what does that have to do with anything? And the dude isn't much of a looker either
Seriously. We should develop AI just to hand out sentences. They deserved years.
Agree, now i know why lots of things are fucked up in USA...
By the look on his face on the thumbnail, you can tell that he doesn't look guilty for what he did.
If Jared's parents felt any anguish over what their son did, they only prolonged it by covering for him. Can you imagine what else Jared might have done if he had gotten away with it?
Wth kind of sentencing was that that was handed down to his parents??! There are people who have done more time for shoplifting!! Smh...sad and disgusted.
I agree. They should have received at least 10 years for their involvement. Vile people, all of them.
I guess being a former cop has its privileges.
Right and a joint 🙄
Jared's parents should have been given a FAR stiffer sentence. Especially given they didn't try to help recover the last of Ashley's remains.
Let’s hope their community gives them shit for breathing air! Monsters, the lot of them!
for real! the least they could do was tell people where the rest of her was, cause they had to know.
This was absolutely horrible. I knew Ash quite well. I did her hair and makeup for prom. This was so tragic!! Her best friend just posted about her today. I’m so glad you did her case! RIP 💜🙏
I just love you...the way you tell these heartbreaking stories...well its thee only way to hear them...your lil mix of humour with a dash of sarcasm .....priceless!! ❤
Those parents are LIARS!!! They aren’t grieving for Ashley, they are only grieving the loss of their monster son’s future. If they were any better than their son they would have given the answers that everyone is desperately seeking, but no...they are just as self serving as their POS son. I was glad that he didn’t get death and that he got an actual life behind bars sentence. He deserves every last second of it. RIP Ashley.
I thought the same. Sometimes death is too merciful for people who do these things. We can do our best to serve them a living hell before eternal darkness drags them away.
Until society accepts my proposed idea to catapult turds like this into the sun, 100 years in prison will have to do.
Agreed. Other inmates don’t look kindly on men who murder innocent women.
I feel this isn't the first time his parents have helped him like this, because of how fast they came to cover things up. Being that his dad was a policeman no telling what else he's done and they've covered up.
I hear ya...on the one hand he probably covered up alot but probably nothing this major because there was so much evidence in their possession good thing they're idiots tho
Retired police dad, son who's been arrested more than 30 times with no consequences... yeah, I think you're right in saying this isnt the first time the parents bailed out their son once he was in trouble.
I think after so many years of doing this over and over, a body was no problem and didnt even phaze them... that's horrifying stuff honestly
yeah I wouldn't be surprised if the dad ends up being just another ex-cop serial killer
I was thinking the exact same thing.
Im not saying ACAB. But it is too easy for someone to get out of things when their family is a cop.
I was playing games on the tablet while listening to this and the second the mother screamed out in the court I LITERALLY started to bail. Her pained screams ripped the tears out and I swear after 13 and more years of true crime for me, this never happened before to me. That mother is in so much pain and anger. I literally can't stop crying. May God give Ashley's mother and family so so so much strength and love and safety forever. This was horrible to watch especially the end. May that low piece of a "human" thing suffer in jail.
Thank you for all you do Mike! You’re a quite unique man. Keep ‘em coming!
Seems like he got away with shit all his life. His parents excused him time and time again. No wonder he didn’t know where to draw the line
Nah he knew EXACTLY where to draw the line
His parents didn't know where to draw the line. The acorn doesn't fall far from the tree.
Agreed! My in laws treat their grandson the same way... never holding him accountable, always bailing him out of situations. I’m afraid he’ll end up the same.
I saw a snippet of one of your old videos about the Cecil Hotel in a netflix documentary! I felt like a proud mum lmfao
literally same, haha!
Lol
Saw it too! I thought, "That's our Mike!!!!" Felt the mum pride as well!!!! 😀👍💖
I saw that also and felt proud because I love Mike's videos so I am not the only one.
Me too ❤
Thank you so much Mike. This tragic case left me broken 😢 The cruelty that Ashley went through is beyond evil.
They should have gave James "As soon as you tell us where the parts are, you'll be released. But not until then."
The fact that his pen-pal account says “interested in building long lasting friendships” after killing a friend
should have said 'interested in dismembering, burning and burying friends'
Friends until death do us apart
He’s innocent. I think her mom was in on it. She lookked suspicious.
