Dear Sophia: 1) Per Wiki, Cortes Island is 16 miles X 8 miles, rather small actually. 2) Population (2016) = 1035, pretty tiny. 3) The producer has lived on the island since he was 7, and still has a cabin there, yet the murder scene is so remote that a local had to give him directions just for this show. In other words, very few residents even knew where it was. 4) it's still possible that an outsider did it (even the Italian Mafia) but it takes 3 ferries to get there so access is very limited so that should narrow down any outsiders very quickly. -- It didn't take a Sherlock Holmes to figure out who the murderer was here, whoever that was. THEREFORE, it looks like the RCMP was totally incompetent in this case from Day #1. If residents don't want to talk then you drag them down to the police station and "sweat" information out of them. I sure hope that what happened is that someone in the RCMP got bribed to cover this case up, because the ugly alternative is that the whole RCMP were a bunch of incompetent clowns in this investigation. ... jkulik919@gmail.com
Good one. I've been strategically inactive all morning in bed watching documentaries. But it's sad the police was strategically inactive during the terror the guy was making his victims go through
@@JosephKulik2016 it was clearly self defense from one of his victims since the police didn't send him to jail for his crimes. A guy who beats someone and uses an axe like that is a domestic terrorist and a potential murderer, should have been locked up. Because he didn't, he clearly got popular justice lol
The new boyfriend saying "we have a new life and want to live that new life, the other life is done" (or something very close to those words) and the fact he said they don't talk about it and they don't care really came across as them knowing something or who did it and they just want to leave it in the past. Because facing it would mean jail.
The present RCMP are happily spending the 200M given from Canadian taxpayer money for hurting the feelings of a few females on the force. God help our nation.
Wife's new boyfriend : We don't talk about it, we don't think about it, we don't care!" Im sure they don't have a problem spending that murdered man's money though!!
True People are usually killed by someone close to them, boyfriend, girlfriend, lovers husband or the spouse. I would put money on the wife and her lover at that time. When someone is killed in their sleep it's usually done at that time and in that way to avoid confrontation or because the murderer isn't strong enough to over power the victim so I would put money on the wife, she has the most to gain and loose if they divorced, she may even be asked to leave Canada...growing up in Cuba I'm sure she's seen many murders in her young life, so killing her husband isn't hard for her when she felt threatened....it's the wife
This would not be so hard to figure out. Follow the money. This man lives in a remote location that is not easy to find. He is killed up in a loft, in his sleep. Whoever killed him knew this island and knew the layout of the home to be able to get there and sneak up on this man to kill him in his sleep! He brings this strong, social woman up from Cuba “that made the island hers”. He surely keeps up his abusive habits with women into this relationship. And then starts planning on leaving the island to go back to Italy. I don’t think the wife was wanting to leave...she was the island queen! I think if you followed the money you’d find a “loony from the boonies” that had made some money off of this murder. The wife is behind this. It is so obvious.*the quotes are from part one of this story
Yea, I mean he only terrorised & assaulted God knows how many women, in front on young children too apparently, so I don't know why anyone wouldn't be scrambling to his defence? With some gentle encouragement he might even have killed his wife before anything happened to him.
@LOVE BLESSINGS. Yea, it would certainly seem like her or her son are likely involved or at least know who is. Although there's no excuse for murder, if the allegations about his extreme violence were true this should be taken into account when looking at this! If the boy had grown up witnessing his mother being abused, being mentally & possibly physically abused himself, this is certainly going to have a major impact on him.
@@petej8556 he didn't kill anyone, whatever his ex said is speculation, there are no police reports of him being violent, and I herd plenty of people saying how great of a guy he was.

Oh come on now, it's not like remnants of The Manson Family moved up there at the end of the 60s because one of the communities on Cortes Island is named Manson's Landing! Why, if that were the case, then you would find a bunch of people there trying to live in secrecy, and trying to make sure nobody dig into things in general too deeply; and you'd find other people just too afraid to talk openly about things . . .
The fact that Abigails new beau is the son of the woman who pointed out how horrendous it was for him to see his mother beaten by the murder victim is not suspicious in the slightest! And his clear threats to the fifth Estate is completely normal!
Unless your in the bed or under it..wat makes you think she tells the truth about being beaten..do we know she is credible? Why did she not report this to the R.C.M.P...??why didn't he 'beat' the other girl friend.doesnt sound rite to me
When I watched the first story on this, I didn't realize that Abigail's son was 16. Considering how angry she is at the investigations by the Fifth Estate on Cortes Island, I would not be surprised to find that her son possibly and his friend had something to do with this. I hope Cristiano finds closure someday.
Wow I would love to see this case solved. Deffinetly think a cover up is happening. I personally believe wife's son did it, but I think all three were involved. Mom being gone wasn't just lucky. I don't see why this case is unsolved.
@@graceelaine698 That's the point. When the reporter asked him "what do you think" he's ASKING him to speculate. Personally, I thought dude was creepy. And did you notice that he took his sweatshirt off? I thought I saw something cross his face when he held the son at arm's length after he hug, too. I don't know, it was uncomfortable.
@@Silenceisgolden25 I had to watch him twice because he was so weird. More than just him being homely there were other things he did that didn't sit right- like taking his sweatshirt off, for example.
As a summer resident at Cortes Island this concerns me that the RCMP basically knows who it is and is just waiting for him to “slip up” again and then arrest him. But why wait for another persons life to be lost when it’s as clear as day who did it. We don’t know anything about this Nick Jordan (Samuals friend on the property the night of the murder) other then he didn’t answer any calls from CBC. Marco Fisch also sounds like one that is very aggressive when it comes to this case. It almost sounded like a challenge to come seek more information I dare you. The people of Cortes are kind folk but to turn a blind eye on this puts everyone in danger. Sounds like Stefano was a Street angel, house devil but two wrongs do not make a right and do the right thing so poor Christiano can begin the healing and put his unrest conscience a piece of mind. To keep this under wraps is a shame for the RCMP and Islander Canadians. Not very Canadian at all!
Sounds like the son of the beaten woman. She obviously was there with the boys, so, why is this so hard to figure out & test the hair & blood that was at the scene? That makes no sense!
@@dellahicks7231 we could put the theory "someone came on a boat and left not without using the road" It could have been her and not the mafia. I mean obviously she knows a lot more considering she is not happy about people trying to solve her husband's case!
Right! Son and friend in cabin next store. Motive: Son saw mom get a beat down many times. Son and and mom inherit everything. Evidence: Blood on chair in sons' cabin. Ext circumstances : mom not mom not on island. Violent murder n the boys heard nothing ? Alot people think son had the right to take care of it. Mom currently with one of the murderers. This is a no brainer.
I was at Bertha's market (Manson's) this past summer and the poster is still up there... I hope they solve this. my Grandparents and my parents have properties there. I love Cortes, been going there my whole life...
The fact that Cristiano's reward posters were removed over the following weeks definitely strikes me as VERY suspect. The new husband or boyfriend of the ex-wife of Cristiano's murdered father speaks rather incredibly, despicably, and surprisingly so. Threatening you that he'd fight you if CBC ever returned to the Island again, for this investigation anyway, definitely is part of why the guy spoke very incredibly. I think it may well be enough for the RCMP to question that couple, drillingly. But why on Earth would anyone of the Island remove those reward posters, again, is very suspect, and maybe it could be treated as obstruction of justice, if the police can ever find out who's guilty! Of course the police would need to first CARE enough to investigate this, as well. When posting these notices, Cristiano was surely acting withing his RIGHTS, and whoever removed those posters surely WASN'T acting within their rights! Samuel is also VERY strange, and I wonder what the evidence was that the RCMP found in the cabin Samuel and another were occupying on the same property the night of the murder, for it seems that the RCMP believed it was related or relevant to the murder. Some people are hiding some things, knowledge about all of this; f.e., the person who removed the reward posters remains unknown to others, but not to the person who did this. That fact, alone, is proof that some people there have relevant knowledge that's being kept secret.
mikecorbeil makes you wonder how much corruption is within the RCMP as well as other police forces that just let crimes like this go unsolved… it seems to me that if they have to do any sort of deep investigative work they can’t be bothered
Clear as day Wife put the hit the son/boyfriend finished him. In islands everyone knows everyone’s business. The mafia theory is funny and sounds stupid. But Cubans don’t play around threatening the crew looks ridiculous. Bad father or good he was murdered and police have a duty to treat the cases like any other.
Nobody seemed to ask the question of who benefited by the artist's death. The comment was made that Abigail inherited the Canadian assets. Huge motive.
@@autumnbray8790 Hi, I saw another episode months ago - when they first started. Then they went to Italy to find his son and this one is the son going back.
At least his son is doing something about his death, apparently in the first segment the deceased was known to abuse his wife or girlfriend, it had a lot of people thinking she had him killed
That new boyfriend.. Seems a bit aggressive for an innocent bystander.. And the son and mother combo! Oh she's hiding something... Get that dna looked at!! Push for that dna to get tested!!
Fascinating story. Whoever did this is STILL on he island or he/she came back to the island to take those posters down, and I think the cops know who did it & they're still looking for more proof.
Cristiano fascinates me - he strikes me as a super-intelligent, profound person. I hope he gets the closure he seeks. Usually if there’s a conspiracy, as there patently is here, it’s pretty easy to crack once the conspirators are in custody.
So Abigali's current boyfriend, Marco, is Carla's son!!!😮 Now it's much harder to believe Carla's dramatic abuse stories! What if they all just wanted his money so they planned to kill him together? This case is so obvious and easy. I don't know what all those "geniuses" in RCMP are doing with all the time on their hands?😂Are they really that dumb that they're unable to solve such an easy case?!
*A Path Forward* 1. Get warrants to wire tap Abigail, boyfriend, Samuel & his friend. There's is enough probable cause here. 2. Implement the taps. 3. Tickle the wires. Publish a report that new evidence might lead to an arrest. Record all phone calls. 4. Flip Samuel's friend with a plea deal and to testify. 🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭
Very GOOD investigative report, and it's great that some locals were willing to answer some of your questions. I wish Cristiano success with this case that clearly is very difficult to get solved. And I wish him SAFETY if he ever returns to Cortes Island again ; something he surely shouldn't do alone.
I honestly doubt anyone is after Cristiano... He has been here on Island various times and always found a welcoming and loving environment... He is always welcome here and needs no escort!
The wife and her lover did it period. She left the island to have an alibi! If she had divorced her husband she feared being sent home to Cuba! Cuba is a seriously rough country! She has not only seen murder there but knows several murderers in her own family! Life is cheap in the third world...the wife did it, her lover did it for her
Either that or her son did it and they are covering it all up. Dollars to donuts mamma knows something! I am willing to put money on the son being guilty. The lover would have had a man's strength and wouldn't need to wait for him to be asleep, but the boy child couldn't risk him being awake and waited till he was sleeping to get the upper hand. The more I think about the mother's reaction and the evidence, my money is now on the kid and mom helped cover it up.
Wow! How admiral of him to sacrifice his livelihood for the good of consumers’ LIFE AND DEATH needs. It is repulsive how money is considered more important than people’s pain and wellbeing. ALL pharmacies and their CEOs should be audited, investigated and monitored on a regular basis by law…
I believe that the reason most of the islanders doesn't want the murderer to be found is because they knew who did it and feel the person is not a threat to them. Otherwise they would probably be very eager to get a murderer locked up or they wouldn't know who would be next. The story about mafia killing him, is probably a story they tell tourists so they will not be afraid visiting the island because mafia doesn't just kill random people.
@Jo Pearson funny she found a way off the island that night. And hmm I'm sure she could find a phone and dial 911. In addition there are resources available to people living in abusive situations. And last time I checked abusers didn't get the death penalty.
After watching both reports, it’s fairly clear the two other people at the compound were involved. It would be interesting to know who is taking those posters down. You have a producer who lives there so put them back up and put a camera on them.
@Vanguard Supreme, There is usually physical abuse involved, when there is "controlling" behavior. It usually starts out subtle, with mental control, like suggesting they wear something else or do things differently. And it usually escalates to physical abuse.
"Strategically Inactive" in my mind means they pretty much know who did it but they can't prove it therefore they're running a covert/sting type operation. This means they may have an agent placed that will befriend the suspect and gain his/her trust and in time will set up a reason why that person needs to disclose the murder. Depending on the suspect it could take a very long time to establish trust. If the suspect was a criminal they could hire him to do false crimes and pay him money. The big boss wants to make him part of the crew but needs to know he's trustworthy and wants details about crimes he/she has done in the past. Once details are videotaped that only the killer could know they arrest the person. This is the reason the R.C.M.P. won't release details as to how the victim died. I can tell you the victim's killer hated him for some reason. The spray on the rafters happens when a knife in plunged in the victim time and time again. As the knife comes out it pulls blood and sprays it outwards. Much can be learned from blood spatter, right or left handed killer can often be determined. I think we all know who did this and why so I'll leave that part out.
There was a quick picture showing a horse drawn cart. That poor horse was skin and bones! To know it was stated that this man inherited a family fortune. Why was that horse in such a malnourished state!? Forgive me, yes I'm sorry for his loss and I hope the killer is caught.
Clearly her son and friend had something to do with it and the community knows. Now, the questions is “community! What if it was your wife, son, husband? Would you like somebody to speak up?” Also if the man was as bad as the girlfriend described him maybe that’s why the whole thing is a cover up.
literally the first documentary that was done with the producer going back to cortes....there was a picture shown of Abigail and her son and I instantly said in my mind it was Samuel, Abigail and another person....now I see this for the first time...with out a shadow of a doubt it's that exact case, how this hasn't been solved is beyond me. suspect
For his widow to get upset because they're trying to find the killer of her husband. Is not normal. There were 2 other people there & evidence at the cabin they were in. Are the rcmp really that incompetent, or were they bought off?
I hate this for Cristiano, I can see how uncomfortable he is and probably in anguish. I have felt this myself, with the murder of my best friend and the the death of my Italian wife, Suzette, of complications from chemotherapy, in April of this year, 2019. I miss the Italian culture that she turned me onto, as well.
The posters were torn down?!? Wow that place is sick as there secrets. Whomever torn them down is the person hiding info. The place where he felt at home and had his love and joy betrayed him in many ways. Evil a d sick and so wrong. They turned on him by not helping or trying TO get more info.
It’s interesting to learn how all this story unfolded. It reminds me one of the novel written by our famous authors of our time, Jiro Akagawa. I somehow can see what is the truth.
When the system is proven weak and ineffectual, the people will go back to a more primal system of justice. I'm not declaring my support, just stating a fact.
True, but had this happened on the mainland it would have been a different story, I think. Lawless people is right; you can have Cortez Island! If the murdered man was abusive he could've been prosecuted and gone to jail. I think it's possible all the women who fell in love with him fell in love with his pocketbook!
Crime scene was too unprofessional to ever be a mafia hit. They don’t usually leave blood spatter all over the walls and themselves. I think the widow’s son is the most likely suspect given the history of the victim beating his ex’s. I don’t see why the ex girlfriend would lie about the axe story and beatings in her phone interview, she doesn’t have anything to gain and she sounded very credible to me.
Marks voice always soothes me … it just feels so Canadian .. His voice has become so familiar with Canadian media /reporting … I would watch any show he was involved in … 🤗😊
Not a lot of people realise that widows/widowers receive all of their spouse's inheritance. Spouses have to share any inheritances.... but not if one of them is dead.
Think the boyfriend of the widow and widow herself planned it, paid someone.😒The other son knows now or suspects what his mother did, but cant say anything cause its his mother.
At 22:25 is when they start talking about police reports. Four witness statements. Samuel called 911 at 8:34 a.m. And Crime scene evidence was found in Samuel's cabin. That's suspicious. He should have left that scene alone.
Is/was Marco Fisch an islander? The mafia would have created a more chilling scene. An adult would have had the victim's body thrown into the sea to conceal the murder. I hope Canada's highest investigation bureau arrest the murderer/s.
It sounds like a case of vigilante justice after listening to the gal that had lived with him before. That community seems to think his wife was a kind person and worked hard to be part of a whole new climate and culture.
I understand a little how he might feel. My papa's death ruled self murder but other evidence said it was an impossibility. I shall never know the truth of who murdered him. Too many years have passed.
Sounds like that woman knows something. It’s sure is a beautiful place to live. This is the first learning about the island. And my Stefano painted beautifully. Anyone that’s bought his art is very lucky. The man had a talent. The colour’s remind me of a beautiful bird. ❤ Sorry for your loss 🙏

Considering how angry she is at the investigations by the Fifth Estate on Cortes Island, I would not be surprised to find that her son possibly and his friend had something to do with this. I hope Cristiano finds closure someday.
Wow I would love to see this case solved. Deffinetly think a cover up is happening. I personally believe wife's son did it, but I think all three were involved. Mom being gone wasn't just lucky. I don't see why this case is unsolved.
The guy who said he didn't want to comment is so weird, THEY KNOW.
@Bhosadike : They know something or some things about this murder "story", but we don't know what they know about this, so people can only speculate.
Weird? He was most likely being completely honest. . ....Anything I say is only speculation. (His words).
@@graceelaine698 That's the point. When the reporter asked him "what do you think" he's ASKING him to speculate.
Personally, I thought dude was creepy. And did you notice that he took his sweatshirt off? I thought I saw something cross his face when he held the son at arm's length after he hug, too. I don't know, it was uncomfortable.
@@Silenceisgolden25 I had to watch him twice because he was so weird. More than just him being homely there were other things he did that didn't sit right- like taking his sweatshirt off, for example.
Maybe Stefano was disliked if he treated Abigail roughly, and the murder seen as homegrown justice.
Isn't it illegal to threaten people not to investigate? I would press charges.
I feel bad for his son but I have ZERO sympathy for violent men who come to a violent end.
It's the Universe's justice.
As a summer resident at Cortes Island this concerns me that the RCMP basically knows who it is and is just waiting for him to “slip up” again and then arrest him. But why wait for another persons life to be lost when it’s as clear as day who did it. We don’t know anything about this Nick Jordan (Samuals friend on the property the night of the murder) other then he didn’t answer any calls from CBC. Marco Fisch also sounds like one that is very aggressive when it comes to this case. It almost sounded like a challenge to come seek more information I dare you. The people of Cortes are kind folk but to turn a blind eye on this puts everyone in danger. Sounds like Stefano was a Street angel, house devil but two wrongs do not make a right and do the right thing so poor Christiano can begin the healing and put his unrest conscience a piece of mind. To keep this under wraps is a shame for the RCMP and Islander Canadians. Not very Canadian at all!
Well said!
J Krainer I couldn’t agree more. I’m in Comox on the island and I’ve never heard of this until now.
The RCMP is incompetent. Poor training and a poor pool of officers to choose from.
Sounds like the son of the beaten woman. She obviously was there with the boys, so, why is this so hard to figure out & test the hair & blood that was at the scene? That makes no sense!
What do you mean she was "There with the boys"? She wasn't on the island the night he was murdered.
@@dellahicks7231 we could put the theory "someone came on a boat and left not without using the road" It could have been her and not the mafia. I mean obviously she knows a lot more considering she is not happy about people trying to solve her husband's case!
@@wildflower942 Exactly! Why she wouldn't support everybody trying to find out who had killed her husband?
@@dorisf7368 To protect her son, Samuel, the killer.
who could it be? It is not a difficult case to solve.
Yeah, Crime scene evidence was found in Samuel's cabin.
@@bonnielee7134 Samuel was in the cabin with her now Man who was a teenage at the time.
Right! Son and friend in cabin next store.
Motive: Son saw mom get a beat down many times. Son and and mom inherit everything.
Evidence: Blood on chair in sons' cabin.
Ext circumstances : mom not mom not on island.
Violent murder n the boys heard nothing ?
Alot people think son had the right to take care of it.
Mom currently with one of the murderers.
This is a no brainer.
I was at Bertha's market (Manson's) this past summer and the poster is still up there... I hope they solve this. my Grandparents and my parents have properties there. I love Cortes, been going there my whole life...
The fact that Cristiano's reward posters were removed over the following weeks definitely strikes me as VERY suspect. The new husband or boyfriend of the ex-wife of Cristiano's murdered father speaks rather incredibly, despicably, and surprisingly so. Threatening you that he'd fight you if CBC ever returned to the Island again, for this investigation anyway, definitely is part of why the guy spoke very incredibly. I think it may well be enough for the RCMP to question that couple, drillingly. But why on Earth would anyone of the Island remove those reward posters, again, is very suspect, and maybe it could be treated as obstruction of justice, if the police can ever find out who's guilty! Of course the police would need to first CARE enough to investigate this, as well. When posting these notices, Cristiano was surely acting withing his RIGHTS, and whoever removed those posters surely WASN'T acting within their rights! Samuel is also VERY strange, and I wonder what the evidence was that the RCMP found in the cabin Samuel and another were occupying on the same property the night of the murder, for it seems that the RCMP believed it was related or relevant to the murder. Some people are hiding some things, knowledge about all of this; f.e., the person who removed the reward posters remains unknown to others, but not to the person who did this. That fact, alone, is proof that some people there have relevant knowledge that's being kept secret.
mikecorbeil makes you wonder how much corruption is within the RCMP as well as other police forces that just let crimes like this go unsolved… it seems to me that if they have to do any sort of deep investigative work they can’t be bothered
I just love the fifth estate god bless u all the team 💗💗💕💕❤️😘🙏🙏💐💐💗💪💪💪💪
God not god
@@tp1201 ok Grammar police
I had a feeling from the first episode when I heard Abigail’s angry voice that it was her son, and his friend who killed Stafano.
Why hasn't the friend of the son been named? It's not Marco Fisch, is it?
Clear as day Wife put the hit the son/boyfriend finished him. In islands everyone knows everyone’s business. The mafia theory is funny and sounds stupid. But Cubans don’t play around threatening the crew looks ridiculous. Bad father or good he was murdered and police have a duty to treat the cases like any other.
Zc
This is not a difficult case at all!! Its pretty obvious on who's hiding information about the murder. its sad that nothing is being done
the cops know, they just don`t have any solid proof. Unbelievable that they botched this investigation...
Nobody seemed to ask the question of who benefited by the artist's death. The comment was made that Abigail inherited the Canadian assets. Huge motive.
Killed in his sleep. His son is trying to get justice for his dad. I hope he finds it one day.
I wanted a deeper dive into this.
Julie Barnes they stared it’s just part 1 so hopefully the rest of the story will be up soon. It may be up now, I haven’t checked yet.
@@autumnbray8790 Hi, I saw another episode months ago - when they first started. Then they went to Italy to find his son and this one is the son going back.
what someone just got hear and said we could do more?
It's clearly a member of the family, or someone who was very close to the family.
At least his son is doing something about his death, apparently in the first segment the deceased was known to abuse his wife or girlfriend, it had a lot of people thinking she had him killed
She did arrange it.
@@juliepoppy1021 how do you know?
@@rishaa682 Body language, critical thinking analysis, psychological analysis of the presented facts.
Julie Barnes That’s bullshit. You can’t prove anything. You could be right but you don’t actually know anything for certain.
@@juliepoppy1021 lol ok didnt know you were psychic as well.
Sounds like some form of community justice.
I hope that woman who spoke pretty openly to him watches her back.
That new boyfriend.. Seems a bit aggressive for an innocent bystander.. And the son and mother combo! Oh she's hiding something... Get that dna looked at!! Push for that dna to get tested!!
Watching These Shows Makes me Realize The Fuzz North of The Border Are Just as Inept as The Fuzz South :D
Canadian here... can confirm!!!
Fascinating story. Whoever did this is STILL on he island or he/she came back to the island to take those posters down, and I think the cops know who did it & they're still looking for more proof.
or the widowed wife took them down.. or her boyfriend. most likely either of the two in my opinion.
Cristiano fascinates me - he strikes me as a super-intelligent, profound person. I hope he gets the closure he seeks. Usually if there’s a conspiracy, as there patently is here, it’s pretty easy to crack once the conspirators are in custody.
So Abigali's current boyfriend, Marco, is Carla's son!!!😮 Now it's much harder to believe Carla's dramatic abuse stories! What if they all just wanted his money so they planned to kill him together? This case is so obvious and easy. I don't know what all those "geniuses" in RCMP are doing with all the time on their hands?😂Are they really that dumb that they're unable to solve such an easy case?!
I have to go with the new boyfriend Marco. 2 reasons, 1) He is Abigail's new lover & 2) the deceased beat his own mother regularly
He was also creepy and threatening in his responses.
Wife.
*A Path Forward*
1. Get warrants to wire tap Abigail, boyfriend, Samuel & his friend. There's is enough probable cause here.
2. Implement the taps.
3. Tickle the wires. Publish a report that new evidence might lead to an arrest. Record all phone calls.
4. Flip Samuel's friend with a plea deal and to testify.
🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭
I think so too. This is not rocket science, like someone else said.
@@Clixremix616 Very true Yarina.
Very GOOD investigative report, and it's great that some locals were willing to answer some of your questions. I wish Cristiano success with this case that clearly is very difficult to get solved. And I wish him SAFETY if he ever returns to Cortes Island again ; something he surely shouldn't do alone.
I honestly doubt anyone is after Cristiano... He has been here on Island various times and always found a welcoming and loving environment... He is always welcome here and needs no escort!
This is a great Y.T channel. Thanks for everything.
The wife and her lover did it period.
She left the island to have an alibi!
If she had divorced her husband she feared being sent home to Cuba!
Cuba is a seriously rough country! She has not only seen murder there but knows several murderers in her own family!
Life is cheap in the third world...the wife did it, her lover did it for her
Either that or her son did it and they are covering it all up.
Dollars to donuts mamma knows something!
I am willing to put money on the son being guilty.
The lover would have had a man's strength and wouldn't need to wait for him to be asleep, but the boy child couldn't risk him being awake and waited till he was sleeping to get the upper hand.
The more I think about the mother's reaction and the evidence, my money is now on the kid and mom helped cover it up.
Wow! How admiral of him to sacrifice his livelihood for the good of consumers’ LIFE AND DEATH needs. It is repulsive how money is considered more important than people’s pain and wellbeing. ALL pharmacies and their CEOs should be audited, investigated and monitored on a regular basis by law…
I believe that the reason most of the islanders doesn't want the murderer to be found is because they knew who did it and feel the person is not a threat to them. Otherwise they would probably be very eager to get a murderer locked up or they wouldn't know who would be next. The story about mafia killing him, is probably a story they tell tourists so they will not be afraid visiting the island because mafia doesn't just kill random people.
@Jo Pearson funny she found a way off the island that night. And hmm I'm sure she could find a phone and dial 911. In addition there are resources available to people living in abusive situations. And last time I checked abusers didn't get the death penalty.
After watching both reports, it’s fairly clear the two other people at the compound were involved. It would be interesting to know who is taking those posters down. You have a producer who lives there so put them back up and put a camera on them.
Marco Fisch is most likely the one removing the posters.
@15:07 He hasn't even asked the question yet "has she told you..." and she shakes her head. I find that quick responsive body language strange...
They say controlling they mean he’s abusive and violent towards his partners?
@Vanguard Supreme, There is usually physical abuse involved, when there is "controlling" behavior. It usually starts out subtle, with mental control, like suggesting they wear something else or do things differently. And it usually escalates to physical abuse.
Norma Cunningham I lived through that for a decade and a half and if he hadn’t passed away would probably still be there!
@Vanguard Supreme, I'm sorry to hear that. I too went through this. No one should have to live like that.
I noticed that too
"Strategically Inactive" in my mind means they pretty much know who did it but they can't prove it therefore they're running a covert/sting type operation. This means they may have an agent placed that will befriend the suspect and gain his/her trust and in time will set up a reason why that person needs to disclose the murder. Depending on the suspect it could take a very long time to establish trust. If the suspect was a criminal they could hire him to do false crimes and pay him money. The big boss wants to make him part of the crew but needs to know he's trustworthy and wants details about crimes he/she has done in the past. Once details are videotaped that only the killer could know they arrest the person. This is the reason the R.C.M.P. won't release details as to how the victim died. I can tell you the victim's killer hated him for some reason. The spray on the rafters happens when a knife in plunged in the victim time and time again. As the knife comes out it pulls blood and sprays it outwards. Much can be learned from blood spatter, right or left handed killer can often be determined. I think we all know who did this and why so I'll leave that part out.
October, 2019 it was reported RCMP were "closing in on the suspect."
It's now, November, 2023, four years later, and so much for that.
Will there be a part three? 🙏🙏🙏
Remote island with small population, perfect scenario for Agatha Christie's Ten Little Indians.
Hercule Poirot would solve it.
@@fionagregory8078
Most definitely.
Or 1000 snaggle-toothed sheep.
I really feel for this man and his family my dads murder still has not been solved :(
Vanderhoof bc December/22/1982
Soo sorry for you
Hmmm Abigail certainly had motive!
Marcus Lee doesn’t mean she didn’t conspire or hire someone
@@Silenceisgolden25 very plausible.
Marcus Lee if I were the police I would lock you up for being stupid and not shutting up when you should! Quit replying. It’s my opinion. deal with it
The wife, her son and the new boyfriend clearly knows something. Despicable people
"Strategic inactivity" lol I'm going to use that at work
Super excited to see part 2!
There was a quick picture showing a horse drawn cart. That poor horse was skin and bones! To know it was stated that this man inherited a family fortune. Why was that horse in such a malnourished state!? Forgive me, yes I'm sorry for his loss and I hope the killer is caught.
That was in Cuba, where they got married. Not his horse.
Clearly her son and friend had something to do with it and the community knows. Now, the questions is “community! What if it was your wife, son, husband? Would you like somebody to speak up?”
Also if the man was as bad as the girlfriend described him maybe that’s why the whole thing is a cover up.
Of course it is. It's also awkward that Carla's little boy grew up to be Abigail's boyfriend.
That’s is so sad for the son that people don’t want to help him find the killer that took a father away from him
Sounds like Abigail and Samuel strategically orchestrated the demise of Stefano.
Wife knew he wanted to leave Cortes for Italy..maybe also to leave her???to be sure someone killed Stefano in this way all belong to his widow
I wonder if he left her or the son an inheritance and if under the circumstances of his death did they receive it. Motive
Its pretty obvious who did it and police are covering it up. End of story.
Who knows they got paid to look the other way.(allegedly). cause she inherited all his money 🤑💰.
literally the first documentary that was done with the producer going back to cortes....there was a picture shown of Abigail and her son and I instantly said in my mind it was Samuel, Abigail and another person....now I see this for the first time...with out a shadow of a doubt it's that exact case, how this hasn't been solved is beyond me.
suspect
For his widow to get upset because they're trying to find the killer of her husband. Is not normal. There were 2 other people there & evidence at the cabin they were in. Are the rcmp really that incompetent, or were they bought off?
So the victim was “complicated.” That along with other descriptors says tell me IMO he was a narcissist. R.I.P. Stephano🌈
I hate this for Cristiano, I can see how uncomfortable he is and probably in anguish. I have felt this myself, with the murder of my best friend and the the death of my Italian wife, Suzette, of complications from chemotherapy, in April of this year, 2019. I miss the Italian culture that she turned me onto, as well.
He was a amazing artist. Reminds of Salvador dali'
I have never heard of this case. I sure do hope his son keeps searching. Obviously the RCMP isn’t doing too much to find out.
The posters were torn down?!? Wow that place is sick as there secrets. Whomever torn them down is the person hiding info. The place where he felt at home and had his love and joy betrayed him in many ways. Evil a d sick and so wrong. They turned on him by not helping or trying TO get more info.
My bet is on Marco Fisch as the one who removed the posters.
Oh man. Even if it was self defense it needs to be finished.
It’s interesting to learn how all this story unfolded. It reminds me one of the novel written by our famous authors of our time, Jiro Akagawa. I somehow can see what is the truth.
When the system is proven weak and ineffectual, the people will go back to a more primal system of justice. I'm not declaring my support, just stating a fact.
True, but had this happened on the mainland it would have been a different story, I think. Lawless people is right; you can have Cortez Island! If the murdered man was abusive he could've been prosecuted and gone to jail. I think it's possible all the women who fell in love with him fell in love with his pocketbook!
Very lousy statement considering the "battered wife" took all the money off the abuser, just a side effect, right?
How convenient that the wife was away that night. Its her and her son. I believe she was having an affair with that Mark guy before they killed him
Exactly
Awful lot of sympathy for a misogynistic wife-beater going on in this comment section.
Crime scene was too unprofessional to ever be a mafia hit. They don’t usually leave blood spatter all over the walls and themselves. I think the widow’s son is the most likely suspect given the history of the victim beating his ex’s. I don’t see why the ex girlfriend would lie about the axe story and beatings in her phone interview, she doesn’t have anything to gain and she sounded very credible to me.
Marks voice always soothes me … it just feels so Canadian .. His voice has become so familiar with Canadian media /reporting … I would watch any show he was involved in … 🤗😊
Not a lot of people realise that widows/widowers receive all of their spouse's inheritance.
Spouses have to share any inheritances.... but not if one of them is dead.
Has there been an information since this was taped.
RCMP is a JOKE
Abigail knows what happened - why does she refuses finding out the truth what happened to him who murdered Stefano..
Think the boyfriend of the widow and widow herself planned it, paid someone.😒The other son knows now or suspects what his mother did, but cant say anything cause its his mother.
At 22:25 is when they start talking about police reports. Four witness statements. Samuel called 911 at 8:34 a.m. And Crime scene evidence was found in Samuel's cabin. That's suspicious. He should have left that scene alone.
Bingo!! I said I thought it might be him after the first episode.
Is/was Marco Fisch an islander? The mafia would have created a more chilling scene. An adult would have had the victim's body thrown into the sea to conceal the murder. I hope Canada's highest investigation bureau arrest the murderer/s.
I’d be looking at the Mrs...or Ms.
Somebody accused Italy of being involved and he said that’s “a big bullshit!” Hope he gets justice.
On my saved list, will watch later. Is this another corrupt and inept Canadian police case?
It sounds like a case of vigilante justice after listening to the gal that had lived with him before. That community seems to think his wife was a kind person and worked hard to be part of a whole new climate and culture.
I understand a little how he might feel. My papa's death ruled self murder but other evidence said it was an impossibility. I shall never know the truth of who murdered him. Too many years have passed.
Very sad. Perhaps fifth estate could investigate on your behalf.
Sounds like that woman knows something. It’s sure is a beautiful place to live. This is the first learning about the island. And my Stefano painted beautifully. Anyone that’s bought his art is very lucky. The man had a talent. The colour’s remind me of a beautiful bird.
❤ Sorry for your loss 🙏
People who are close to him. This is not over money, it has to do with hatred or resentment. We can go ahead and eliminate the mafia theory.
i feel bad for the son but at the same time the guy sounded like a total psycho.
Nothing psycho about him. Just a typical Italian... you need to get out more.
