The father finding his daughter is just incredibly horrific.
The guy had the creepiest smile...a pretty damn unsettling gaze...it bothers me a lot that HIS was the last face that poor girl would ever see in this life. Pretty sure he's what evil looks like.
I know. He wakes up in the morning and brews a nice coffee. Is taking the dog out. I just imagine a nice, crisp morning in his robe feeling good and rested. Then, he finds such an awful awful scene. Then years later his family stops him from confessing? I guess they’re happy that he went in to kill at least four more? He was abused by all of them so why did they even care if he confessed? All of it is infuriating and both police departments were a total joke 😡
I thought the same thing. How awful.
im not sure i'd survive that
Thanks for the spoiler 😎
The father and daughter who took him from the house should be held responsible as well. Gaurantee he was going to confess what happened. People who cover for murders because they're family should be charged with preventing justice.
100 percent, if the victims were my family we'd be settling out of court with extreme prejudice.
The police department that made excuses for why his dna was found under a murder victims fingernails should face some kind of judicial punishment as well.
It's all so easy when you're driving from the backseat.
@@theunmitigateddisaster676 If they didn't have enough of a case, they wouldn't be able to try him a second time and it would be tough to get a conviction on only a single piece of evidence that even a semi-competent attorney could explain away.
Agree
So, he told his family and they came and dragged him out of the house to stop him confessing, and that led to other women being murdered. What a lovely bunch of people. Should all be in jail.
Maybe it was a set up. Maybe his family had planned on waiting until Tricias father came home and then immediately storm in and take Michael out. It’s too much of a coincidence for him to have been there and they just happen to show up at the right time. It sounds planned.
Exactly! How do they not become accessories ????
Agree
People will only ever be as good as the people they are surrounded by
@@carbon-based-lifeform9172 They have choice. Many people come from terrible backgrounds to be beautiful, thoughtful and hardworking people who contribute wonderfully to everyone around them.
I remember Ashton Kutcher’s date being murdered and him testifying. You did a great job starting with Tricia who doesn’t have fame and telling her story.
He was subpoenaed, so he had to testify
I am sure this would have shaken Kushners chill.
Mike’s just going in order of who got killed first
@@kimberleesara9486 depends, not always
Kutcher is heavy into the Illuminati. The gf was a sacrifice. Celebs can't achieve fame & big fortune unless they sign a contract in their own blood. The satanic elites run Hollywood. Kutcher is famous because he obeys the elites. They all worship the baphomet. Kutcher's testimony about saving kids who are victims of trafficking was an act. After all, "he" is an actor. It's possible he saves some tin order to look good, but he's not a good person. You wouldn't want to leave your child alone with him.
I know you might feel like you are making people roll their eyes with your opening and endings, but NO. We adore you, and we come for your take on stories. Please don’t doubt how fabulous you are.
**reply to all those who questioned (or worse) in regards to my comment to Mike:
For all of you that have been watching as long as I have, when Mike only had a few HUNDRED subscribers, we know how he wrestled with the decisions about how to start and end his videos. He has always been very interested in feedback from his community.
Understand why it means something to Mike to have the continued constructive comments that help reinforce the reality of the majority of his subscribers and lurkers alike.
I’ve watched this channel for years, and have supported Mike’s evolution. It is brilliant, and I am proud to say I’ve never doubted his compassion or empathy for the victims.
Mike, if you read this, you’re fookin awesome.**
To be fair, he's probably saying that in a tongue-in-cheek way
I second your comment!
I tune in just for the "aye you"!
Facts!
I agree and if he ever changed up his opening and ending I’d still watch. His story telling is great and keeps me interested and despite the horrific stories he keeps it liv by hearted somehow and still respectful
The fact that Mike is still getting 30 000+views in half an hour after all these years just shows how much people luv him and his content.
Well done Mike ,keep doing your thing,don't ever stop and leave us without great content and personality.👍
Yup lol. He uploads at 12pm PST where i am, so i sit here refreshing on tuesdays and fridays. Gotta have my fix
@@baussify
8 p.m here. ☺️🇮🇪
And it just keeps getting better everytime!
5am Australian time🤣
Although I totally agree w you, it sounds funny to say after all these years. Mike's only been on YT 4 yrs and the true crime weeklies are about 3 years old. I think you must be waaay younger than me!🤣
That last intended victim, Michelle, saved her own life & other lives. Incredible- to wake up & successfully fight off an armed psycho killer much bigger than you...wow!
Agreed - it’s truly incredible. What a woman.
It left her scared and she moved out of state.
Exactly! Quick to react!
Simp alert.
Some absolute Queen shit
What a horrible experience for a dad to discover his daughter had been stabbed to death right outside the door while everyone else was inside sleeping.
The police failed the system
And a serial killer got a free pass to kill again
Between his parents and the police mayhem led to more crimes way to go LEO
The murderer's family should be charged as "Accessories After the Fact" because they KNEW he killed Trisha.
Thanks for another brilliant Chapter, Mike! 👍
So would these be the same parents and siblings that abused him and left him in a closet for days? There needs to be accountability for that too
@L what's descrimination?
I bet they was afraid of what he might do if he finds out they told on him. Fear makes you helpless
It's suspicious but could have been completely unrelated. You would need to get them to talk to prove the case.
@L
I said they should be CHARGED, it would be up to the jury to find them guilty or not. And whether they were found guilty or not guilty would not change the verdict for this killer, and no one involved would have grounds to sue anyone for discrimination.
I was at a random Dr. app earlier and a couple people were chatting in the waiting room about appreciating crime docs/shows. I brought up this channel, and your name and BOTH people talking lit up and exclaimed how much they love your show.. and then the receptionist chimed in and said she watches you too! You are loved a lot out here in Pennsylvania!
Please never stop bringing us such well done content, for real
That's awesome 💕
@@millardf452 oof. Just looked up your comments. You really try hard to tell everyone how you don't like Mike/this channel that you can't stop posting about, eh?
Thanks because engagement in the comments brings more views. 💕🤣
@@millardf452 Can you point at this doll and show us exactly where Mike or this poster hurt you?
Grow up. I'm from Pennsylvania and all of my friends watch Mike too.
@@millardf452 You sound as though you need some treatment by a good psychiatrist; let us know when you start feeling better. No doubt you're jealous of Mike's success as well.
@@millardf452 I mean he has nearly 2 million followers so it's really not that far fetched that people who watch true crime know him. Why so miserable?
That poor girl and her father finding her is so horrible. This man is a monster.
11 years between arrest and trial is unbelievable and unacceptable.
That’s crazy should be a time limit imagine how many innocent people have spent years in jail
Because of that
Holy shit the neighbor that survived, Michelle, is a fucking badass. I'm so happy she managed to fight him off.
I have no doubt her strength in that moment saved countless women’s lives.
And he ran away screaming, _I'm sorry._ Obviously, this is a very sick and tortured human being. Its a shame he wasnt caught earlier. You would think with the family of the first victim knowing that something was up with him, his sending them presents, and then his DNA (apparently a full profile. Why that would be dismissed as touch DNA is beyond me) under her nail, at the very least, merited an all night grilling by police, but they did nothing apparently just bc he's been in the house in the past. I feel like they bear some of the responsibility for not even trying.
I can’t imagine she’ll ever get a good nights sleep again tho. Wow. Sad.
A complete stranger telling stories on RUclips makes my heart happy when he says "cause I love ya", and it's just said in a "because you're a fellow human" way, not a creepy way 😂 💚 we love ya Mike!
Hearing him say that is what keeps me here until the very end. It is so authentic to me and always makes me smile.
@@oliverc.griffin1304 exactly!
@@oliverc.griffin1304 not stories but rather other people’s misery.
No matter how many times i watch him repeat it, i always believe in his sincerity. I feel he's telling a story & discussing it with friends rather than presenting a case to an audience. I must confess, when he says "My name is Mike.", i often respond with a wave & a "Hi Mike!".
He seems to be just what he portrays to the camera, a genuine, caring fellow human being, unless he's a very good actor. 😆
@@MJ-fj9yv You have not read these comments correctly if you think I meant the stories make me smile.
To the parents of this monster - shame on you. To the "detectives" who had clear cut DNA to stop this monster - shame on you. To the son of this monster- pity on you... may all the victims RIP!
Detectives don’t decide if there’s enough evidence to prosecute him, it’s the courts who decide if there’s sufficient evidence.
@@TJ-bn2cn- The District Attorney decides.
That’s how I felt
The girl in Chicago had her killer's DNA under her fingernails and the police just blew if off as incidental contact DNA? That is so insanely ridiculous. They could have saved all those other lives.
Again this is just sloppy cop work, they should of been fired for letting him go.
Should be sued
I’m disgusted cause they could have stopped this crazy
It is Chicago....I mean they literally, not figuratively, literally let assault with a deadly weapon and violent r*pe suspects out without bail, or with extremely low bail to roam and commit more crime while waiting for trial in a year or two. Google it.
When someone SO adorable presents something SO terrible...but does it with empathy and respect for the victims and absolutely none for the killer. Gotta love our Mike.
Are you Mikes mum?
@@erinp.420 No. But my family is largely Irish...and he reminds me of a family member gone too soon. Same loveable, affable, funny kind of guy. So, "our Mike" sounds right to me.
Gotta love our Mike!
The fact that he took so long to get caught, was not because he was fast. But that the police are unbastardly incompetent, hearing the court speech at the end is astounding.
Fresh blood and probably human tissue under that poor girls nails after she was murdered and years later when they get a DNA match the police brush it off because he’d been in their house before !!! How do these people get hired into law enforcement ?? WTF 🤬
@@mayberelevant3237 DNA analysis was available then. Too sad.
Hell yeah... That fucker should be under the bars right when the DNA connected him to the first murder...
Obviously he is an adult and plenty of abused kids grow up to be wonderful people, but it's really hard not to blame this guys parents
Michelle is a hero for stopping this creep. He would've kept doing it if it wasn't for her. The police clearly were not going to stop him even though they had plenty of evidence. No punishment is severe enough for this guy.
Good grief i can't even begin to imagine how horrific it would be to find your own daughter in a pool of blood that's the sort of trauma you may never recover from.
REVENGE!!....helps.
Hello my fellow True Crime fanatic, fancy running into over here on Mike’s good ol’ channel just given it a goo! 😋
Literally said the exact same thing to my misses. Absolutely horrific
Also the fact that she was just seconds from the security of her house. She was with the keys in hand. That detail mess with my mind.
I agree that would be next level tramatic/devestating. Made even worse by knowing that you, and the family were asleep nearby, and even had the killer in your home on multiple occasions.
Your intro are what set you apart man. Don’t stop being you. You’re my favorite true crime creator by a long shot and you actually have a sense on humor and great story telling skills. Keep it up mike
I love how much he's evolved since he 1st started this channel. Been watching him from the start, he's amazing! And I'm not just saying that because I'm Irish 😁🍀
😀😀😀❤❤❤
His writers do a great job working with his personality.
I think this is one of the reasons Ashton got so heavy into advocating for missing and trafficked women. Imagine thinking you got stood up as a famous rich celebrity, only to find out later she was brutally stabbed and laying in the house when u showed up to scoop up ur date. Dang.
You know you're an avid true crime watcher when you're few minutes into a story then you're like; "aaah, I know this one..."
lol I know! AND you continue to watch anyway
This is an extreme example of why you don’t allow the ignoring or assumed ignorance of social cues to prevent you excluding someone from your life or friend group. Trust your instincts.
You have to wonder what his family knew - if he had been about to confess. Their intervention - and police incompetence- led to more victims. Terrible.
You also have to wonder about his family, i.e. what the heck went on there?
@@karentalbot5798 true
Family knew a lot they didn't want the family's dark secrets out
@@karentalbot5798 they use to lock him in the closet for days at a time no food or bathroom God only knows what else
To be fair, the DNA found under her fingernails was not enough to charge or convict him, as he had recently given her a ride somewhere. DNA is transferred pretty easily, so it could have been done through a hand shake or something similar. Imagine the wrongful convictions that would happen if that was the only evidence. Once he was linked to the other murders, it was a much easier conviction.
it's weird to me that the family wanted to cover for him but treated him poorly too. Makes me think there was something else going on in the family they didn't want brought to light by Michael's crimes.
Possibly some MK ultra shit
The dynamic of a narcissistic family maybe...
Scientology I'm guessing
I love your videos, Mike.
I am chronically ill and mostly housebound. Your channel is one of the few that I really love to binge on. Always great entertainment! You give me a way to temporarily get out of my body and my situation. I love the humor you put in and your personal touch. Wonderful storytelling!
Sincerely, thank you.
Thank god Michelle survived and now they had evidence
It’s disturbing they could have arrested him but were to lazy and didn’t take this case seriously
@@jodiforeman3314too not to
Literally not sure how you don’t have a tv contract telling crime stories . You are seriously the best !!!!! I always wait for you to post every week . Your content is so addicting . You keep my attention peeled the whole time . I’ve watched some people that literally put me to sleep . Lol you do a great job . Keep being you mike , because we love you .
I'd be shocked if he hasn't been offered one, but the conditions weren't acceptable.
I hope he wouldn't take it, he makes a lot of money doing it this way and he's in control.
This Mike ^^^🥰^^^
You must be young(ish) to think that having a tv contract working for someone else would be better than what he already created for himself. But yes he is awesome.
@@millardf452 How many illegitimate one's?
I love the way you conduct your shows. I love the way you say “let’s give it a go.“ As a matter fact, when I wake up in the morning and I struggle to get out of bed and finally get to that point where the covers are thrown to the side, I say “let’s give it a go“. Pretty much with the same tone that you use. And then I laugh. Because when you do it I love it and when I do it it makes me happy (and gets me out of bed) (I’m 69). You keep doing you the way you’re doing you.Everything about your presentations is spot on, your humor, your silliness, keep it up.
That’s lovely!
I hope you don’t mind me telling you that the expression is “give it a goo”.
It means to watch or look at. ☺️🇮🇪
Now if he could just pronounce T and H together. Tirty tree and a turd
"Let's give it a go".. can make all the difference in life..love it too and use it all the time😄
Give it a goo..sorry !!
Yep! Me too, and I'm 68. I love this guy Mike. I lost my own husband Mike 2 weeks ago and That Chapter is one thing that gets me going and filled with life for as fragile as it can be.
"Make like a tree and get the hell outta here"
Great to hear a Back To The Future reference!
So awful that the police did the DNA test on the skin under Trisha's fingernails, found out it was Michael, and then the police said "Eh whatever, let's just let him go".
Yeah I don't understand that at all, only thing I can think of is corruption. How else would DNA get under her nails, like literally HOW ELSE?
Makes me wonder how someone can be married and have a double personality and the wife never knows
When someone has died so many years ago I always think to myself all the years they've missed all the things they never got to do the children they never had all the milestones with family it's just so incredibly sad 💔⚘
@Bubble -x12 I carry nothing but my own baggage but when I listen to these case's I show empathy an feel sad for the life they never got a chance to have, but I'm guessing you've probably never been through much an possibly quite young.
So spot on. I've felt that way for decades. It's bad enough that they are murderers, but, they do much more than that, they STEAL. They steal so many beautiful moments from those people, that life can bring. A million thumbs up for your comment.
@@slimbuttermilk thank you appreciated ⚘⚘
@@melly9037 yes exactly
@Bubble -x12 goes to show we all feel and think differently I'm glad I don't feel and think ur way but if that's what makes it easy for u nothing wrong with that
The detective in the Maria Bruno case said "the violence visited on this woman was phenomenal… something from a horror movie"
It was beyond even the season investigators' experience's that this kind of horrific brutality could have occurred in real life.
Michael is simply an evil demon in human skin.
Or just more proof that "Hurt People Hurt Other People", as he was horrifically abused as a child...
One likely cause was repeated blows to the head when he was a child...
Nope. No such thing as demons and humans create their own evil.
Demons aren’t real but terrible people are sadly
@@davidhollenshead4892 Not. An. Excuse.
@@WobblesandBean no shit, really??? I'm sure he was just trying to excuse this murderer's behavior...
He was in there like swim wear!! OMG I have to steal this. Love you Mike!
It’s a common saying in Ireland. ☺️🇮🇪
“It’s like Red Dragon, except shite.” You’re the best Mike!
This guy was literally a neighbor to all his victims. That is so disturbing. I remember Trisha’s case. If the police had looked closer at her circle of friends/acquaintances, the others would still be alive.
Seems they fail more often than anything
They had looked at him, but there wasn't any evidence to charge or convict him.
@@willw7523 It might seem that way because those are the cases we remember most, but if you look at all of the solved cases, you'll see that most investigations are done well.
If and if and if..........
I think if his father and sister hadn't pulled him out of the house that day, that the others would be alive.
Disgusting how the dad and daughter pulled him from his first victim's house, as he sat at the kitchen table waiting to no-doubt confess. Sorry, but those two people are also at fault and I wish there was a law that states that so they, too, could be held accountalbe for all the subsequent murders this piece of sh!te ended up committing.
Accessory after the fact, I believe
@@moonxshakti Unfortunately that only goes as far as actively hiding or disposing of the body and/or evidence after the fact and even then the sentencing is fairly minimal
Ah right, because what this country REALLY needs is a law making it illegal to take your child home when they're upset. I can't possibly see law enforcement ever using such a law for nefarious purposes. It's not like they're known for stepping all over our rights and using mental torture and intimidation to force false confessions. 🙄
Seriously, try THINKING before you spout off about emotional nonsense like this.
I bet karma has come for them 😎
I hope his parents are proud of themselves, stopping him from admitting his first kill, leading to more deaths.... some people literally don't deserve to live.
They made him, ofc they'll enable him and try to save face for the entire family. Disgusting.
Sometimes skills and strength are no match for the fear of losing one’s life.
Mike's the only one that can make dad jokes while telling a messed up story and NOT come off as an idiot.
I love and look forward to your video's. Thank you for the content and keep up the amazing quality. You and Mr. Ballen are the videos I have notifications for.👍
Thank you!?,Mike!!
It seems to be common, why do you use an apostrophe in video's?
Yeah, he truly is disrespectful with his jokes.
@@BariumCobaltNitrog3n I usually do it to irritate pedants but that's just me.
@@stenbergskij101 No, he's not. He's able to add levity while keeping respectful, IMO. That takes skill.
Crazy this wasn’t brought up BUT….he actually took so many steps in planning his attacks that he actually would wait until a unit close enough to his victims became available. This was so he could watch/stalk the victims every move. The women were not victims of opportunity, meaning he selected them way ahead of time. He would plan and wait until he had moved in and got to know everything about their daily lives!
*i bet his mother was very pretty and feminine.*
@@OrchestralOrg what would make you think that?
Wow. That says a lot. . .
@@leahgolden7242 *the sort of females he went after were all the same, very pretty and feminine. if he had a bad mother who is responsible for what became of him (arguably typical for some serial killers) then he was essentially trying to kill his mother by proxy.*
@@OrchestralOrg or simply killing the kind of woman who rejected him as a lover...sweet pretty girls who rejected him for being creepy?
Seems like he maybe subconsciously wanted to be caught, bragging to coworkers and stashing the disposable shoe cover, instead of throwing it away.
Mike!!! I just laughed so hard at the "look at them Manson Lamps!!" You have an uncanny ability to capture the compassion that respects the victims and also make us laugh. Thank u for this.
The term "Mansion Lamps" or "Mansion Peepers" is older than Mike O himself....

Your channel is my “guilty pleasure” so to speak. I am often bedridden from cystic fibrosis. Your channel gives me the fuel to explore and thrive. My dad was a police officer for 25+ years. I used to listen to his stories as a kid. Your stories, as terrifying as they are…..bring me back to those stories my dad used to share. He knew I was always fascinated with human nature, and the way the criminal mind works. You have a way of honouring the victims and their families, and not giving credit to the criminal. Your sarcasm is a welcomed uplifting vice! Keep being you, and Mike is a great name if it is given to the right person!
@Kimberly Hasson I think I've seen a comment of yours before. I'm sorry that you're dealing with such an awful health condition. I wish you joy, peace, and healing.
Saw a love movie once where both leads had that condition. It was very good.
Yeah, Mike's videos give me comfort, despite the subject matter. Not only is he interesting and a great story teller, but his genuine, kind, and lovable personality just makes the world better.
It's great to find something reliably good to look forward to, that temporarily distracts from the difficulties of life, and gives us a moment of relief.
His channel is definitely one of my favourites and I love his sarcasm especially the life insurance boogie 🤣hope you stay well 👍🇬🇧
Hi Kimberly. I love Mike's channel and his manner too. I don't have what you have, but I'm long-term terminal with MCAS (unless it decides to not do the long-term thing) and fully empathise. There are days I can do a bit of exercise, laundry and cook and there are days that leave me unable to get out of bed due to fatigue or not breathing very well at all. Much love to you. Quality channels like this are an absolute life saver, especially as, with my condition being set off with fragrance, most who I thought were friends have left. It's less lonely watching friendly people like this. I love the facts he digs ups and presents with great logic too, like on the Elisa Lam case that others want to turn into something that is hurtful to the family. Anyhoo, I hope you're having a good week. xxx
Puke.

@@JamesHeinrich-vk7vz You never know what kind of bizarre trauma someone else has had to endure, and often they somehow blame themselves. Sometimes a story about someone else's trauma actually helps others by making them feel like maybe they are not as crazy as they themselves think they are. It is strangely validating to hear that someone else has had to deal with similar craziness because it makes you feel less alone while trying to deal with your own demons.
@@sharronbrown9182 orrr hasn't had to endure. ya don't know either. we can just simply enjoy his work, and our own personal perception of it.
I concur.
There’s so many crime teller's,but mike is number 1.
More than just makes me laugh,his personality,voice,facial expressions,his not annoying trying to sell products I mean the list goes on.
🤣🤦♀️
To everyone who's saying his parents should go down with him, because they 100% knew, as Mike said, "We will never know what he was going to say that day." The burden of proof would be on the prosecution, and there just isn't enough evidence to show that they knew. While I agree with you guys, realistically it would be beyond an uphill battle.
Thanks, Mike, for covering crimes that often disappear from the radar. I live near Glenview, and this crime has disappeared from the public consciousness. I appreciate your time and attention to detail!
I was born and raised in Glenview. I was young but remember when Tricia was murdered. Too bad the police let him get away. It would have saved the other women 😞
I grew up like 3 streets away, terrified me as a child when it happened! I used to walk past the street on my way to school. I grew up on gladish lane, it happened on hubor lane. I saw an article in people about it a few years ago, but that's about it.
Kudos for covering this one! It surprises me how many people have never heard of him. Much love from across the pond!
Big fan of your channel! It's fun to see you here too!!!

Imagine the guilt Ashton Kutcher felt when he was told it wasn't red wine but her blood
After the trial of his friend, the convicted S offender Danny Masterson, one of Danny's victims (basically his ex girlfriend) disclosed that actually Ashton entered the house that night and saw the dead body of this girl (as he wouldn't be able to see the blood through the window) but instead of calling 911, he called his friend Danny who advised him to not call the police as this would have ruin his career. So Ashton went to the party. The police knew that he had entered the house but decided not to make it public, as at that point they were already investigating Michael.
@@MiraculousAngelTarot Yep! Yep…. Ashton saw her body and Danny Raperson told him to pretend that he didn’t. And then Ashton supported him during his trial.
Terrible birds of a feather flock together I guess..
My mom grew up in Glenview as well, and I'm proud to say that she both hasn't killed anyone and has always been the most understanding and loving mother one could ask for!

This man was my sister and her husband’s neighbour when he stabbed Michelle. He lived across the alley and a few buildings south of Michelle in Santa Monica. He lived with his wife and mother-in-law. He could see Michelle’s window from where he lived. He scaled the outside of the building onto her balcony on the second floor. The owner’s have changed the balcony so it can’t be done again. My sister and her husband owned the building directly across from Michelle and where Michael fled after the attack. He jumped their security fence and ran along the walkway of the building. The police traced him because he had cut himself and knew where he lived. He should never have committed all of these crimes. The police in the first case botched it and are responsible for all of the further crimes known and unknown he committed.
What about his son Andrew
was there son living with Michael and his wife
With such a predictable MO, you'd think the detectives on the case would look at everywhere he lived to see if any women were murdered in the area at the time he lived there. The other frightening thing is his family pulling him out of the Picaccio house just as he was probably about to confess to Tricia's murder. He had to have confessed to them beforehand. So that makes them accessories after the fact. Knowing that they could've prevented other murders, how do they sleep at night?
TC is my first stop when I need me some TrueCrime😎...and I live in Toronto 😉😂
I don't know how it's possible that you only have 1.7 million subscribers. You should be in the stratosphere by now! And I don't care what anyone else thinks, I love MrB., too, but you're the #1 storyteller on RUclips, no doubt!!! So it just doesn't make sense that your channel isn't reaching as many people.
Just so you know, I've been with you since you had around 20k subs or so and I never miss a single episode. And I can never make myself turn your videos off until I hear those words: "Mike out!" You're the best, Mike! ✨️❤️
*how it's possible he isn't the man version of jenna marbles: only a percentage of humans are interested in murder death kill. mike can talk to us all day and night long about dirt and grass and he's gonna have an audience because he's him but of the people who aren't interested, they're more than likely not interested in the subject matter.*
*there's something wrong with all of us.*
@ominousthings it's not nothing, but this is Mike we're talking about. He should have many more subs than he does. Mr. Ballen started after Mike and he has over 6 million subs. But he's probably not recommended as much as some of these other channels are, for whatever reason. That's the only thing I can think of. Because I watch a lot of true crime creators, and he's one of the most genuine and engaging creators that I've ever come across on here.
But as far as my message to Mike, I mean this as a compliment. He's really good at what he does and I don't understand how he doesn't have 3 or 4 million subs at minimum by now.
The fact that this dude's family took up for him is insane.
Probably didn't want anyone to know about their abuse of him.
I believe his parents knew he killed the first girl not just because of the weird situation where they stopped him talking to the girls father but he must have been covered in blood when he went home which I believe they saw. He is ultimately responsible but if his parents did know then some of those women's blood is on their hands. I know if my son committed a murder like this I would turn him in and going by all the descriptions this guy was not right mentally for a long time and his parents must have also saw how unhinged he was but decided to relocate and cover for him which is unforgivable in my opinion. It took too long for a trial and he should have been put to death a long time ago.
Yeah, I've got a lot of questions about that family. Abusive dynamics and possible CTIs from playing football would certainly set this dude up for violence.
You do realise that kids sneak in and out of their homes without the parents seeing right? Just a fyi.
Ask those parents whose kids have been killed after they snuck out or someone snuck into their home and stole their kid.
@Hazel Bradley-Britt Kids sneaking out was not my point, he had to return with his clothes and shoes covered in blood. He could either wash the clothes and shoes or throw them out but I know if any of my boys came home and started washing clothes at 1 in the morning just as a young girl was killed I would be asking questions and I would notice if they all of a sudden had one less pair of shoes along with clothes mysteriously disappeared. I think that's why later on he used the shoe covers, he was learning from his mistakes. If they didn't know why did they just walk into that house without invitation and rush him out then move to Hollywood?. They knew he would be at that house because they knew he was going to confess to the girls father, what other explanation do you have for just walking into someone else's home like that without even knocking and waiting to be let in?.
@@killercat5231 exactly.. serial killers always grow and evolve- and those shoe covers are are perfect example of that. His parents had to have noticed he was either missing his shoes or that he had bloody shoes and clothes when he came back from the first murder. It would be extremely hard to hide everything. And the fact that they burst in like that just proved that they were fully aware that they knew he murdered their daughter. Otherwise, why on earth would they have done that? They wouldn’t have.. if he was innocent.
@@PiXie232 his Father probably was more afraid the guy was going to tell on them for tying him up and locking him in a closet for days at a time..
Its interesting how many of these criminals inflict such pain and the second they are tested, it's "poor me" in this case running away saying "sorry"
It's because they're inherently weak. It takes a weak man to take out his anger and frustrations on others.
@@chemistryofquestionablequa6252 or does it...?
@@chemistryofquestionablequa6252 -especially those smaller, weaker than themselves.
@@nickyblue4866 yes. Weak people take out on others the things they’re not capable of dealing with themselves, especially emotions
@@dmreddragon6 almost EXCLUSIVELY those smaller and weaker than themselves. Easy kills, especially the guys who go after people on the edges of society.
If someone says they've killed someone, believe them ALWAYS and go to the cops.
Mike telling me to take care because he loves us momentarily cures my depression every time
I really wished that Trisha's parents would've sued his parents in a civil suit because they are very much 100% responsible for all the murders and attempt one after Trisha besides their son doing the physical doing. That's so wild how he was feeling remorse enough to confess and his disgusting parents stopped him. No wonder he was so comfortable and brazen with his actions. Based on his parents actions ,his actions and what his son has said about him , karma gonna do them filthy (as she should) on a good day for many generations to come. RIP to all the victims 🙏🏼 💔
Geez, could you imagine being married to a serial killer and not even know it?!?
Well... my wife has no idea.... 🤫
@@nickyblue4866 There’s a lot you don’t know about your wife too.
Makes me wonder about some of my friends 🤔
Those poor women. So sad. This one really was touching. The words you used to describe him at the end were too kind.
My fiance took his life yesterday thank you for being there. This has been my only means of coping when I'm not able to get out of bed.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
(May he rest in peace).
Makes you wonder if Michael was going to come clean about murdering Tricia to her dad before his dad n sister burst in & took him away.. that would mean they knew what he'd done which makes it even more disgusting.
not only they knew but were willing to stop him from confessing… its so insane
Abuse and neglect doesn’t turn normal kids into serial killers. It’s the pull of the trigger of an already loaded gun.
No, there is absolutely no evidence of that. Parents being allowed to abuse their children is what perpetuates the cycle of violence and creates abusers. And then people like you mythologize the whole thing by downplaying the parents' role and upholding the exact same system that leads to such horrific murders (among a lot of other suffering). It's such a lazy cop-out to pretend like certain kids are born "evil". No such thing, but abusive parents, a shitton, unfortunately.
I JUST REALIZED there's a creepy face on the background of the phonecalls. That is such a good detail Mike wtf love you even more now
I love when Mike calls them “Manson Lamps”😂🤣
You're on fire Mikey O! You are adored! And we love ya too!
Another horrifying story of law enforcement dropping the ball on a profound level.

This is, BY FAR, my favourite channel on the entirety of RUclips!
I just love, Love, LOVE IT!!!
11yrs to go to trial.... so much for the right to a speedy trial. Imagine being the surviving victim of a ghastly crime and having to wait 11yrs AFTER HE WAS CAUGHT just to relive the crime again in court. Sheesh.
I was literally just searching for your channel when the notification popped up. Thank you Mike for your consistency and hard work 🙏🏾
Thank you! Appreciate that
Always uplifting to see another That Chapter upload. He's built such a great community of true crime folk who can come together to honor victims, call out criminals and have a wee chuckle at the brutal irony of life.
@@mrs.h2725 so well said:)♥️
@@ThatChapter I appreciate you. Since the first time I watched your videos, back when you were pretty new, I immediately appreciated your genuine, kind, and very likable personality. I love your humor best when you are not trying and just being your own subtle, sarcastic, excellent self.
Your storytelling and research is excellent. I look forward to your videos, and you never fail to make life just a little bit brighter, despite the subject matter.
If I had one request I would just request more cat cameos. I love your intro and outro, the music, your personality, and if I was in your area I would buy you a coffee or a drink of your choice.
Some people act awkward about things, but you are just a very likable person. Your personality shines through, and though we are all strangers, you feel like a friend. Your storytelling gives a moment of relief and is always something to look forward to.
And even though you probably regret the first time that you told us that you love us, it oddly just makes a person feel cared for in a world that can be quite harsh. Thank you for that. I know some people think that people who love a stranger must be somewhat bent, but we're just humans appreciating another human who happens to be of obviously excellent character.
Thank you and have a great day
Mike don’t mess about Dutchie
Tuesday Mike. Thank you for another creepy , disturbing , and crazy video. Be safe all
You too!
Ive got a story idea for you!! There's a story here in my home town in Central Washington about a guy who murdered another guy, buried him in a barn, then went to jail for unrelated charges. After he was released, he went and partially dug the guy up, then proceeded to blame it on his soon to be ex wife. The guy had been missing just shy of a year. The murder got 40 years for what he did. This dude was seriously wrong in the head. He had multiple felonies in other states before this all happened too...
Crazy! What was the killers name? Id like to read up on this

@@staceywilson8901 thanks! I hadn't heard of it either.
Call what you will, but, don’t call him Mike! 😂🤣😂🤣
My girl and I are long distance and we love listening to you together when we can. Keep up the great work. Hey Steph!
omg same except watching 🧐
That's awesome! Hi Stephanie! Lol
Damn I wanted so badly to see her comment here too. Hi steph!
Yall are cute
Pls tell me Steph will see this 🥰
What a monster!! I'm so upset they didn't arrest him when they found out his DNA was under his first victim's nails. How was that not enough evidence? So sad he was able to commit so many other murders. He's where he belongs! I hope he rots in jail! As always Mike, you are the best storyteller and I love ya!
Because its the Feds and they need to be sure of a conviction before charging people with crimes. They knew a good attorney could have set up a reasonable doubt scenario. Plus we all know his dad and sister would help out.
He is white!
That's what can happen with just 1 or 2 bad cops. Most are decent but the the bad ones are the reason not enough guilty people get caught and too many innocent people are locked up.
ruru what does white have to do with It? Bad cops ruin everybody's lives no matter your color. Why does race have to be thrown into everything? The people who think like that are the ONLY ones who care about race. I know I don't. I've been endlessly hassled by 1 particular cop and I'm white so color don't mean anything
@@ruru4738 no its california.
People need to stand their ground and to call police on those "friends" who keep showing up unannounced, calling all the time, and not letting you live your life. Call police on them, it is only way.
WHOA....that Rainbow Bar and grill customer attack hits way too close to home! I used to frequent the strip after work at Universal Studios around 1999. That's just unnerving to think I may have come across him
I feel like at first I came here to listen about murders. Now, I'm here just to listen and look at Mike. CHARISMA
I grew up in LA and now live in Chicago so hearing about this guy for the first time, never knowing this monster was running around in my childhood city is so trippy.
His truth is that he’s innocent. Shows validity of that phrase
The way you keep the delivery so sharp is really impressive, massively inspiring for us new true crimers to keep growing, massively hats off to you, love your work
I think it’s wise to point out that neglect and abuse turns most normal kids into… normal adults (with a bit of emotional scar tissue) and not killers.
While it is true that abuse can contribute to disfunction of some kind in later life it is more a weight on the scale and less a light switch
I don't know, there are just far too many psychopaths that have been horrifically abused as children. I mean, almost all. Sure there are a few that weren't abused that still become psychopaths, but it's like over 90%. And remember not all psychopaths kill, some are just horribly abusive husbands/wives, abuse their children, act as horrible bosses, become troublesome neighbors, or just cause trouble to those around them. I know a guy whose brother is diagnosed psychopath, he's a raving alcoholic and drug addict with more than a dozen felonies, and my friend and I believe if he hadn't spent most of his life in prison he would probably have killed someone by now. But he hasn't.
And I agree with you, abuse doesn't make someone a psychopath, but I think is makes certain people, with certain mental traits, for sure.
But what do I know, I'm just a small country bird lawyer.
You, my friend, are an absolute legend of the true crime genre. I've watched so many different hosts do the same thing you do, absolutely none of them do anywhere close to what you do. You cover stories I know and stories I don't know, and I watch every single one of them religiously. How you don't have your own TV show on prime time TV is beyond me. Keep up the phenomenal work Mike, because we love ya
Coffeehouse Crime is another of my favorites. You should give it a try. These are my two favorite channels!

So between Gargiulo's original family who clearly knew he was a killer back in the 1990s, and the cops in Chicago who matched his DNA to Tricia's murder but did nothing, Gargiulo could have been stopped and wasn't! And as a result, at least two more women were brutally murdered and another was almost murdered (Wikipedia lists the number of his victims as between 3 and 10). So how have these coverups not been looked into? Surely Tricia's family told the police about his strange visit (and his family's sudden intervention), and when you add the DNA evidence, It's almost as if the Chicago police went out of their way to protect Gargiulo!
It just doesn't make any sense at all, his family and the cops are basically complicit.
I would sue all of those people into oblivion and feel great doing it
Glenview police, not Chicago.
Well what's two (most likely more than 2) dead women when you may possibly accuse an innocent man with some pretty good DNA evidence(!) against him.
The family was obviously wealthy, and Chicagos slogan is literally "the corruption city" AKA "The windy city" it's not called that because it's windy(it's not a super windy city at all actually, there is far more windy places like boston) the windy city slogan comes from old slang about the politicians being "full of wind" + a crazy tornado that came through at the time. A since the politicians were so "full of wind" making false promises and such, the nickname stuck.....
My point is, maybe they bribed them, because that's the only thing that makes sense tbh.
I could've sworn I learned in school in the 2000s(when DNA tech was getting really good and tons of cold cases were getting solved) that the only way DNA could get on the finger nails is if someone REALLY scratched you like in a self defense way, I remember the teacher was asked "what if someone just scratched you earlier that day then happened to get murdered shortly after, then the DNA could put a person in jail falsely?" The teacher made it clear to us that wouldn't happen because to get enough DNA on the nails they would have to scratch extremely hard in a self defense way....
So how else would his DNA be on her nails "in some other way" other than him murdering her?
The ONLY thing that makes sense is the cops were bribed.
