+Jody H. Melbourne, Australia. May be, you are right. But, may be , not also. The truth is that in this case we will never know, unless/until more credible evidences are produced. May be, the husband/father did the four murders or he hired someone to do the crimes or they were just random murders/burglary went wrong.
Grace was my friend in school. She was scared of her father. I also know one of the detectives who was on the case. We both know he did it. I hope that man lives every day of his life in fear of dying. He's going to get the punishment he deserves in the afterlife.
@@heididietrich9800 thank you. I remember going to school afterward. Our teacher gathered us all into a circle and told us Grace wouldn't be coming back. She could barely speak because she was crying. It's odd to me that now everyone gets counseling and days off from school for tragedies; we had none of that.
He totally did it. How convenient he leaves on a business trip after they come home from Chucky Cheese. Kids still have food in their stomachs when they were found? His reaction after finding out? No tears, no nothing from him. He wasn’t brainwashed because of his religion, they aren’t allowed to divorce?? It was his only way out of the marriage. It’s shows he’s a complete loser and pos after being married 4 times. I don’t get how monsters can kill their own children. Just disgusting 🤬
What his religion was also against, even more so than divorce, is murder!!!! The man totally deviated from any moral convictions when he committed this massacre.
@JVC DISPATCH I think the dectives should have folled the money : investigate his account at the bank to check out if a big amount of cash was retrieved to pay some hitman (or hitmen).
The fact that you think he’s guilty with zero evidence proving his guilt shows that people like you are part of the pitchfork mob! There are literally dozens of people sitting in jail right now for murder, even though there’s video evidence showing that the alleged perpetrators were at work with dozens of easily provable alibis. Unfortunately they were convicted anyway because of feebleminded people like you will believe anything that a overzealous prosecutor or a so-called compromise paid expert tells you to believe. Although you are 100% correct, in the end they will have to face our maker, and then and only then will they be vindicated for their innocence or proven guilty by the all knowing. A word of advice, question everything! “Judge not, that ye be not judged”
I live here in Bloomington Illinois I used to be a waitress at Bob Johnson's Restaurant where the family of Hendrix used to come and eat and I in my heart bleed and I have always believed that he did it he killed his family and I just hope that someday they get the justice that they deserve
I was living there then too and though I did not know any of them at all, I always thought he did it. This was not some random killing, it was 100% David Hendricks who killed his wife and kids.
There will be A Judgment in God’s heavenly sanctuary. They weren’t robbed, no enemies. He was flirting around and getting slim before his family was slaughtered. And that statement about being with the Lord. Seems like he had been thinking about them being with the Lord for some time God will reckon with him Great telling Lamont 👍🏽🌹
Very good observation & well said! Only God knows! But what kind of man kill his wife & children!? He still has to answer to God! I wish they still had the DEATH PENALTY!!
I was pretty young and being a single mom I wasn’t totally into this story but not living that far from Bloomington I knew I was scared to death whoever did it could be after more people. I have always thought he was guilty. I feel he did it or had someone do it for him. The money he had, he could have ordered a hit from another state. They did it and was gone. Your right though, there is only one true judge and he will pass or fail his test one Day!
Hello Lamont & everyone else!!, It's no doubt to me that he killed his family or had something to do with it, Rest In Peace 🙏💔💐to the family of four!!🌹🕊️
But wouldn't the alleged hired hitmen, if that's true, would have a conscience at some point? In some cases, people on their deathbed make a confession about things done in the past, as a way to make things right
The Kids were probably already dead by the time the Wife came home, just leaving her to be killed before he left on his car journey…easy peasy when you think about it.
Hi Lamont. I think he killed them or hired someone to do it. There was a very similar thing that happened in Colorado many years ago. There was 1 survivor, a little girl that was too young to name the suspect. Love your stories!!! Have a wonderful blessed week

I had medical imaging to determine how long it takes for my stomach to empty. It was four hours, and the doctor said that was normal. I'm an adult, but even children could take longer than two hours.
I grew up in Normal, IL, and I remember those murders. He absolutely got away with murder because of two words a judge used at sentencing in his first trial.
I believe David was guilty. Sometimes those involved in religious sects can do some pretty sick things. And nothing wrong with marrying four women but most devoutly religious people wouldnt have done that by such a young age. The baseball player buried there was a star pitcher in the 1800s known as Old Hoss Radbourne. During an era of two man rotations the other pitcher walked away from team and Old Hoss forced to pitch every remaining game. He won record 60 games and had one of the best seasons ever. Member of Hall Of Fame.
Looking at these four graves and thinking about what they went through and how they were murdered just breaks my heart I pray they didn’t suffer long RIP. My condolences to the family.

Thank you so much for all you do! These videos are so interesting and needed. The people that have been victims of others insanity or sometimes their own need to be remembered. They lived and thank you for keeping their memories alive and also when you bring light to unsolved cases in search of answers. These stories need to be told. You are an angel on earth. ❤🌹
@@jurgenjunco5400 That problem in this world people believe what they want to believe and it happening. I don't hear anyone ask for forgiveness from God and Jesus.
Lamont, thank you for bringing new attention to this case and it's victims. Evergreen cemetery was my stomping grounds. My first real ghost hunt with a team. The Hendricks grave is my favorite spot to lay a blanket out and just sit with a voice recorder. I've gotten a lot of paranormal evidence in that cemetery but also at the Hendricks grave. Thank you so much for shining some light on this family. All the locals are protective of them. God knows David wasn't.
I love reading true crime stories and that is why I love your channel. Leave everything in God’s hands for his judgement day is coming. RIP to the Hendricks family.
Lamont , You always do a great job uncovering and telling us these mysteries . So many of them will never be solved here on this side of heaven . How very sad for everyone involved . . . 💐
I can say this.... As an ICU nurse, I've had the misfortune to witness many deaths. That comment of "they are with the Lord now" is not that uncommon. Many deeply religious people feel that being with God is better than any kind of life here on earth. It's the end goal of their trials of the earthly plain. Many also feel that overly grieving for their loss, shows a lack of faith. So I don't think his reaction is unreasonable. That being said... He did it.
Why would he leave a long drive in middle of the night?? And asking his neighbors to check up on them while he could just easily turn around and go check up on them himself if he was so worried??? 🤷♂️
@@H2Ocritter The "orange man" was made out of a tree that died in a spot near (not quite 60 feet, 6 inches from his final resting place) Charles Gardner “Old Hoss” Radbourn's grave. The man responsible for the work of art. Bill Baker of Naperville-based Top Notch Chainsaw Carvings spent four days in late April of 2019 carving the Radbourn likeness, which is lifesize, and includes his infamous left middle-finger "bird" flip. He's depicted with finger extended in a team portrait, and on a baseball card. Radbourn is believed to be the first person ever photographed in such manner. In 2015, a tree was carved into an airplane, near the location where a plane crashed into a tall oak tree in 1948. A WWII trainer plane, a Vultee BT -13 Valiant, was flying low over the cemetery dropping poppy flowers on a crowd to commemorate Memorial Day.
Sad story, if not David someone knows something. The cemetery at the start of your video was amazing, is it possible for you to take another walk through. Hopefully one day you will revisit it. Safe travels.
I agree with some of the comments below. He had enough money to hire someone to possibly commit this crime while he was out doing other things which would serve as his alibi. His response was odd when they found his family
Not enough evidence, for me to make a decision of that nature. I find his behavior very disturbing though. But I still couldn't in good conscience convict anyone without sufficient proof.
Chris Ruthford-- Right. My Feelings, Exactly, and I stand in Agreeance, with Susan Loughlin,(as she said that, too), and I'm not just saying that, to "Copy" her.. But, that's how I really feel. I don't think David Killed his Family. He went out of Town, on a Business trip, and Couldn't have been home, killing his Family, at the same time!! R.I.P Hendricks Family. 🙏🙏🙏😭😥😢 Praying for Justice, and Praying for You 4 Family Members. Your lives, were taken from You, Way too early. 😥😭😢🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😥😭😢
Plus , him saying they are in a better place did not happen on the first night.. it was after sometime and possible after the funerals where the clergy always say .. “ they are in a better place.” ( he might have just been repeating what they always say at funerals.. when my brother died I was livid when the clergyman said he was in a better place. My daughter had to comfort me, when I went on at the end of the service to do the eulogy, I made a comment to try he fact that he did not want to be there yet!!! My daughter and myself have promised each other that that will not be said at either of ours!! ..
I really think you should relook at some of the insinuations made by the police.. also check into the crimes that had taken place within 2 or 3 hours of the area , before and after the crime. Also , stomach contact equals junk science and also police often rush to judgment to calm the residents in the area. Unfortunately, there are random killings.. 3 weeks is not a sufficient time to investigate a crime. Also, crimes have been randomly committed and also many people flirt or even commit adultry and don’t end up killing their families! ( if so I believe we would have a lot more family murders. It’s a very sad story. However, I definitely feel like it was definitely a rush to judgment and an example of police incompetence and confirmation bias. I read a book about this years ago and he was found guilty ( he was still in prison and I thought there was definitely not enough evidence to convict him of murder!) I totally agreed with the judge and years later I was very happy to hear that he had been acquitted!!)
This was a horrible murder. Your videos are great. The way you describe these stories really draws a picture of what happened. Keep up the great work Lamont. Also, just a thought, and i've actually watched your titles incase you ever cover this story. Years ago I saw some type of documentary of the Robert Spangler murders. Maybe look him up because it was something you would be awesom at as far as doing a video on. Not sure when the guy died, but for years he got away with killing his first wife and children. Theres alittle bit of information on google about it, but the guy, Robert Spangler I think married 2 more times, and killed his 3rd wife as well?
If that hadn't been the ONLY thing he said, I wouldn't find it that odd. My family being in Heaven with the Lord would be about the only thing that would get me through such a horrible thing. However, I certainly would've been asking who did it and what happened, and wouldn't have just "accepted it" and moved on 🤨
Your the best story teller Lamont x I spotted a pretty cool carving of a plane made outta of a tree while you was in the grave yard really caught my eye x godbless this poor family 😭😭😭😭
I believe that cemetery is the one where the creator of Wizard of Oz's 3/4 year old niece is buried. She died just before the WOZ was released. His wife (the bio aunt of the little girl) was so distraught by the loss of her little niece that he changed the name of the lead in WOZ to Dorothy in honor of this little one.
I lived in Peoria back then. I was young. I was obsessed with this case. Did a TON of reading, researching, etc. I have absolutely zero doubt that this monster slaughtered his family. Zero. Doubt.
It seems very suspicious they would be murdered in his absence. From the evidence presented I believe he's the murderer. If he is his final sentencing awaits. Thanks for sharing Lamont. ✌🏾❤
This is a terrible tragedy. His statement to the police that he knew that they were in a better place is fairly normal for someone who was deeply religious. What I question is the length of it. He just found out that they died so the whole thing about it being selfish to want them here with him seems planned thought out. That's something that it takes time to process maybe he was in shock but I find it odd. Rehearsed. I know that people often leave at odd hours to go on long trips in order to avoid traffic I just find it too convenient that he left and then they were killed. I'm wondering if he hired somebody or at least had help. As far as the multiple blood spatter they had multiple victims so I'm not surprised because that will depend on the angle and the height of the person that they're striking. If more than one weapon is used I could also change it. I'm very surprised they found no DNA to use later as it was not available in the early 80s but blood type was. Problem is that he lived there. I do agree with the judge that there was not enough evidence to convict even though my gut says they're just too many convenient coincidences here the fact that he was out of town leaves huge amount of Reasonable Doubt. Thank you so much for the video it is much appreciated!
I agree. When I loose a loved one, the second thought I usually have is they are home in heaven. The first is the reaction of acknowledgment of the death.
I think after the horror and shock you may think they are in a better place but this would not be your initial reaction no matter how religious you are, unless you are a Robot.
Idk, statements and body language are only really discernable to people that know the person, we dont have a baseline, obviously some people are such bad liars like Chris Watts were its fairly obvious they are lying to most.
@@ellexpress111 I've seen churches that follow the Bible literally and they don't cry at funerals or in front of others because the Bible says not to grieve as the heathens do we are not supposed to question God's will kind of thing but human emotion to me would be a huge Spectrum here complete horror helplessness Soul ripping sadness an absolute rage I would think come first but I've seen people suppress all of that but it was just to rehearsed and long-winded almost to make himself look better than everyone else as the perfect Christian
"At least they're in heaven now?" Innocent or guilty, that's a very callous thing thing to say. I'd be freaking out and wanting them (the victims) with me. Selfish I guess.,.
To begin with if it was my family and they couldn't be reached I would be on my way back to check on them instead of calling someone to check. Yes, we are all different including those children so they should have digested the pizza differently.
My friend died last year and I was happy that he was no longer in pain but I cried buckets. Bill was a Christian so he is with God but I still cry. His wife cries and I cry because I wanted them to be married well into their nineties. But he was fifty six years old when he died. A year later, I still cry. He and Susan took me to their home on holidays and we celebrated my birthday together. I made a doll for their granddaughter after Bill died. As a way to honor him.
That was very strange story. I wonder if he hired a couple of guys to kill them since someone had thought it was done by 2 people from the way the murder scene looked I guess maybe the blood splatters. He may think in his mind he wasn't guilty if someone else did his dirty work. But he was just as much if that was what happen. I feel like they didn't do enough investigating. It was in the 80s and am sure they didn't have as much back then like they do now to do crime scenes. Something really don't make sense for sure. Since the man had lots of money who knows if he didn't pay someone to look the other way on this. People will do anything for money even back then. I think he had something to do with it and he got away with it. Truth may come out some day but like you said there is a judge we all must face someday and he knows it all you can't hide nothing from him
Lamont you are fantastic this is Thomas from Santa Rosa Cali not working busted left knee garbage man 32 years at home love your work you my friend kick ass keep up the great work I can’t get enough of you
He is absolutely guilty!!! The pizza in their stomachs, not in wife's. The weird flirting with models, losing weight. Saying what he said to an investor. I believe normal people who love their children and spouses would have been in hysterics! I would not have been able to function. I would have hired extra detectives and wanted to kill them myself. Your family should be your life. I pray for the children and wife who did not deserve the horrendous death.
Exactly! He would have been screaming when he seen his wife and kids dead........ Either he did it or had someone take care of it.. He had the money to do it not to mention maybe sloppy police work.. BTW! Great Comment..!

Such a tragic and sad incident. Poor family. May the rest in peace.
What a horrible tragedy the children so beautiful Lamont you paid a great tribute to the Hendricks family , RIP to all 4 victims 🕯
Thank you so much for all you do! These videos are so interesting and needed. The people that have been victims of others insanity or sometimes their own need to be remembered. They lived and thank you for keeping their memories alive and also when you bring light to unsolved cases in search of answers. These stories need to be told. You are an angel on earth. ❤🌹
Yes i concur...💙💙💜💜💜💙💙
Lamont I'm glad that you are making these videos to bring light to crimes like this and exposing!
After he got out it jail he remarried four times. I thought his religion was against divorce
religion is manmade, Relationship is Not...💙💙💜💜💜💙💙
I guess his church wasn't against murder.
Exactly! Religious people are some of the most Hypocritical people on earth. Some of these religions are made by man and isn't the true word of God.
I guess his religion says it was okay to kill his family? What a sick bastard.
@@jurgenjunco5400 That problem in this world people believe what they want to believe and it happening. I don't hear anyone ask for forgiveness from God and Jesus.
Lamont, thank you for bringing new attention to this case and it's victims. Evergreen cemetery was my stomping grounds. My first real ghost hunt with a team. The Hendricks grave is my favorite spot to lay a blanket out and just sit with a voice recorder. I've gotten a lot of paranormal evidence in that cemetery but also at the Hendricks grave. Thank you so much for shining some light on this family. All the locals are protective of them. God knows David wasn't.
I love reading true crime stories and that is why I love your channel. Leave everything in God’s hands for his judgement day is coming. RIP to the Hendricks family.
hey
how are you
Lamont , You always do a great job uncovering and telling us these mysteries . So many of them will never be solved here on this side of heaven . How very sad for everyone involved . . . 💐
I can say this.... As an ICU nurse, I've had the misfortune to witness many deaths. That comment of "they are with the Lord now" is not that uncommon. Many deeply religious people feel that being with God is better than any kind of life here on earth. It's the end goal of their trials of the earthly plain. Many also feel that overly grieving for their loss, shows a lack of faith. So I don't think his reaction is unreasonable. That being said... He did it.
Haha. Great comment. Love the way you set it up!
So showing no emotion is ok when you wife and kids are killed is reasonable?
@@cheyennethedoberpup478 Re-read the comment. Every single word be I said unreasonable explains why I said unreasonable.
I grew up in this church, and you are right. That's how they spoke.
Why would he leave a long drive in middle of the night?? And asking his neighbors to check up on them while he could just easily turn around and go check up on them himself if he was so worried??? 🤷♂️
There are some very interesting graves there. Do you think you could go back at some stage, and do a video on some of them?
Like the orange man and the airplane tree sculpture!
@@H2Ocritter there is also Alice as well
@@H2Ocritter The "orange man" was made out of a tree that died in a spot near (not quite 60 feet, 6 inches from his final resting place) Charles Gardner “Old Hoss” Radbourn's grave. The man responsible for the work of art. Bill Baker of Naperville-based Top Notch Chainsaw Carvings spent four days in late April of 2019 carving the Radbourn likeness, which is lifesize, and includes his infamous left middle-finger "bird" flip. He's depicted with finger extended in a team portrait, and on a baseball card. Radbourn is believed to be the first person ever photographed in such manner.
In 2015, a tree was carved into an airplane, near the location where a plane crashed into a tall oak tree in 1948. A WWII trainer plane, a Vultee BT -13 Valiant, was flying low over the cemetery dropping poppy flowers on a crowd to commemorate Memorial Day.
@@supermama4748 Thank you!
@@supermama4748 Thank you for sharing the history of those graves.
If he is guilty he's not going to get away with it he still has to face God rest in peace to the Hendricks family
If he repented, he won't have to answer.
Lamont, you are right! God is the true judge. One may feel he got away but at the end ; he will pay. Rest In Peace to the Hendricks family.
did he hire detectives to find the killers? I bet not
Watch watch do the same thing or OJ did write a book if I would've done it
Rest in Eternal Peace Hendricks Family. If your husband/father did this, he'll pay, BELIEVE ME!!!!
I feel certain he did this. So sad.
I'm sure hell will be a shocking place for David Hendricks, no way he didn't do it. Thank you for your hard work and sharing these stories.
My husband’s father and grandparents have the exact same headstone! RIP to this family that is gone too soon!
I agree with you 100%. Very interesting Lamont
Sad story, if not David someone knows something.
The cemetery at the start of your video was amazing, is it possible for you to take another walk through.
Hopefully one day you will revisit it.
Safe travels.
I agree with some of the comments below. He had enough money to hire someone to possibly commit this crime while he was out doing other things which would serve as his alibi. His response was odd when they found his family
Not enough evidence, for me to make a decision of that nature. I find his behavior very disturbing though. But I still couldn't in good conscience convict anyone without sufficient proof.
My feelings exactly.
Chris Ruthford--
Right. My Feelings, Exactly, and I stand in Agreeance, with Susan Loughlin,(as she said that, too), and I'm not just saying that, to "Copy" her.. But, that's how I really feel.
I don't think David Killed his Family. He went out of Town, on a Business trip, and Couldn't have been home, killing his Family, at the same time!! R.I.P Hendricks Family. 🙏🙏🙏😭😥😢 Praying for Justice, and Praying for You 4 Family Members. Your lives, were taken from You, Way too early. 😥😭😢🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😥😭😢
Plus , him saying they are in a better place did not happen on the first night.. it was after sometime and possible after the funerals where the clergy always say .. “ they are in a better place.” ( he might have just been repeating what they always say at funerals.. when my brother died I was livid when the clergyman said he was in a better place. My daughter had to comfort me, when I went on at the end of the service to do the eulogy, I made a comment to try he fact that he did not want to be there yet!!! My daughter and myself have promised each other that that will not be said at either of ours!! ..
I really think you should relook at some of the insinuations made by the police.. also check into the crimes that had taken place within 2 or 3 hours of the area , before and after the crime. Also , stomach contact equals junk science and also police often rush to judgment to calm the residents in the area. Unfortunately, there are random killings.. 3 weeks is not a sufficient time to investigate a crime. Also, crimes have been randomly committed and also many people flirt or even commit adultry and don’t end up killing their families! ( if so I believe we would have a lot more family murders. It’s a very sad story. However, I definitely feel like it was definitely a rush to judgment and an example of police incompetence and confirmation bias. I read a book about this years ago and he was found guilty ( he was still in prison and I thought there was definitely not enough evidence to convict him of murder!) I totally agreed with the judge and years later I was very happy to hear that he had been acquitted!!)
This was a horrible murder. Your videos are great. The way you describe these stories really draws a picture of what happened. Keep up the great work Lamont. Also, just a thought, and i've actually watched your titles incase you ever cover this story. Years ago I saw some type of documentary of the Robert Spangler murders. Maybe look him up because it was something you would be awesom at as far as doing a video on. Not sure when the guy died, but for years he got away with killing his first wife and children. Theres alittle bit of information on google about it, but the guy, Robert Spangler I think married 2 more times, and killed his 3rd wife as well?
I recognize that cemetary because I lived in Bloomington Illinois from 1991-2018
I'm addicted to this channel now. Thank you Lamont. 😊
“At least they are with the lord.”
Me: So that makes their death okay? 🙄🙄 smh
Exactly?? SMH 🤦
If that hadn't been the ONLY thing he said, I wouldn't find it that odd. My family being in Heaven with the Lord would be about the only thing that would get me through such a horrible thing. However, I certainly would've been asking who did it and what happened, and wouldn't have just "accepted it" and moved on 🤨
Your talking about a hyper religious person, thats not a weird statement at all from someone like that.
Great work and research, as usual. Thanks, Lamont, for remembering this tragic family.
Your the best story teller Lamont x I spotted a pretty cool carving of a plane made outta of a tree while you was in the grave yard really caught my eye x godbless this poor family 😭😭😭😭
Prayers for all who are left to grieve this great loss justice will one day be served thanks for remembering this family and telling this story!
I believe that cemetery is the one where the creator of Wizard of Oz's 3/4 year old niece is buried. She died just before the WOZ was released. His wife (the bio aunt of the little girl) was so distraught by the loss of her little niece that he changed the name of the lead in WOZ to Dorothy in honor of this little one.
I lived in Peoria back then. I was young. I was obsessed with this case. Did a TON of reading, researching, etc. I have absolutely zero doubt that this monster slaughtered his family. Zero. Doubt.
I think he felt trapped, he was money hungry. No way was he going to let his wife get half…
He did it right before his trip. R.I.P. Grace and babies
That’s so how the husband got away with killing his family, there’s no justice aux more. RIP to the Hendricks 💐💐💐💐. Take care Lamont. Xxx
A neighbor down the block where I grew up murdered his family, then died of a heart attack afterwards. I don't know why ppl do these things.
Very suspicious but you have to have evidence in order to convict!
here it's required True...
Yes
Thank You Lamont for another great ( but sad) vlog. Always looking forward to your next one.
He has a very devious mind. 🖤
It seems very suspicious they would be murdered in his absence. From the evidence presented I believe he's the murderer. If he is his final sentencing awaits. Thanks for sharing Lamont. ✌🏾❤
This is a terrible tragedy. His statement to the police that he knew that they were in a better place is fairly normal for someone who was deeply religious. What I question is the length of it. He just found out that they died so the whole thing about it being selfish to want them here with him seems planned thought out. That's something that it takes time to process maybe he was in shock but I find it odd. Rehearsed. I know that people often leave at odd hours to go on long trips in order to avoid traffic I just find it too convenient that he left and then they were killed. I'm wondering if he hired somebody or at least had help. As far as the multiple blood spatter they had multiple victims so I'm not surprised because that will depend on the angle and the height of the person that they're striking. If more than one weapon is used I could also change it. I'm very surprised they found no DNA to use later as it was not available in the early 80s but blood type was. Problem is that he lived there. I do agree with the judge that there was not enough evidence to convict even though my gut says they're just too many convenient coincidences here the fact that he was out of town leaves huge amount of Reasonable Doubt. Thank you so much for the video it is much appreciated!
I agree. When I loose a loved one, the second thought I usually have is they are home in heaven. The first is the reaction of acknowledgment of the death.
I think after the horror and shock you may think they are in a better place but this would not be your initial reaction no matter how religious you are, unless you are a Robot.
Idk, statements and body language are only really discernable to people that know the person, we dont have a baseline, obviously some people are such bad liars like Chris Watts were its fairly obvious they are lying to most.
I agree about the "with the lord now" statement, that seem especially innocuous from such a religious person.
@@ellexpress111 I've seen churches that follow the Bible literally and they don't cry at funerals or in front of others because the Bible says not to grieve as the heathens do we are not supposed to question God's will kind of thing but human emotion to me would be a huge Spectrum here complete horror helplessness Soul ripping sadness an absolute rage I would think come first but I've seen people suppress all of that but it was just to rehearsed and long-winded almost to make himself look better than everyone else as the perfect Christian
I read the book on the case, "Reasonable Doubt", and I firmly believe that he killed his family BEFORE he went on his phony business trip.
Good morning. I'm off work today and tomorrow so catching up with my fav RUclipsrs.
If any religion restrict you from living normal life than I'm happy without one..😐
*Then 🙄
@@rachelsill79 …awwwwwww ..how sweet..
"At least they're in heaven now?" Innocent or guilty, that's a very callous thing thing to say. I'd be freaking out and wanting them (the victims) with me. Selfish I guess.,.
Anastasia, if you would want someone to come back to this world, from heaven, yes, very selfish.
@@yvonnemorrow2251 Then I guess we're ALL selfish for wanting our loved ones back with us.
Why does everyone seem to be having trouble with the context? Hes a hyper religious person, its not weird statement at all.
I'm selfish because I don't know If there's an an afterlife and neither do you? Yes, I am selfish!
YES YOU ARE!!@annastasiajones9915
Lemont had some really nice eyes. You really do sir. Remember to always stay safe in the new places you go to
To begin with if it was my family and they couldn't be reached I would be on my way back to check
on them instead of calling someone to check.
Yes, we are all different including those children so they should have digested the pizza differently.
My friend died last year and I was happy that he was no longer in pain but I cried buckets. Bill was a Christian so he is with God but I still cry. His wife cries and I cry because I wanted them to be married well into their nineties. But he was fifty six years old when he died. A year later, I still cry. He and Susan took me to their home on holidays and we celebrated my birthday together. I made a doll for their granddaughter after Bill died. As a way to honor him.
I don't understand not admitting the testimony of the models.
Good video Lamont
Great backstory.
your videos are great keep it up 💯
The Lord knows who was there, and the Lord will deal with them when the time comes!
Rest In Peace to the mother and her children
✝️🕯🕊🌼🌸🌺🪆🧸
That day will haunt us still here in Bloomington! He got away with it!!
You good 👍 love to hear the story you told ! Without you ! We won’t even know all this ! Thankyou ! I follow you the next one !
That was very strange story. I wonder if he hired a couple of guys to kill them since someone had thought it was done by 2 people from the way the murder scene looked I guess maybe the blood splatters. He may think in his mind he wasn't guilty if someone else did his dirty work. But he was just as much if that was what happen. I feel like they didn't do enough investigating. It was in the 80s and am sure they didn't have as much back then like they do now to do crime scenes. Something really don't make sense for sure. Since the man had lots of money who knows if he didn't pay someone to look the other way on this. People will do anything for money even back then. I think he had something to do with it and he got away with it. Truth may come out some day but like you said there is a judge we all must face someday and he knows it all you can't hide nothing from him
Check his bank accounts were there large amounts of money taken out
Lamont you are fantastic this is Thomas from Santa Rosa Cali not working busted left knee garbage man 32 years at home love your work you my friend kick ass keep up the great work I can’t get enough of you
He is absolutely guilty!!! The pizza in their stomachs, not in wife's. The weird flirting with models, losing weight. Saying what he said to an investor. I believe normal people who love their children and spouses would have been in hysterics! I would not have been able to function. I would have hired extra detectives and wanted to kill them myself. Your family should be your life. I pray for the children and wife who did not deserve the horrendous death.
Exactly! He would have been screaming when he seen his wife and kids dead........ Either he did it or had someone take care of it.. He had the money to do it not to mention maybe sloppy police work.. BTW! Great Comment..!
@@alberteinstein4103 Oh, go ahead! Mention the sloppy police work. You saved me the trouble, lol.

Thank’s for sharing this 🙏🏼♥️
