The fact that the judge already made up a number in her mind before the actual hearing tells you all you need to know. This judge does not need to be a judge anymore.
@@pattyadams2338Being liberal has nothing at all to do with it. There are statues that each carry a maximum sentence and Judges must follow/stay within the law. They can’t just go around making laws as they please. Tell me you don’t know anything about the legal system without telling me you don’t know anything about the legal system.
Life sentences are extremely rare in Australia - as of 2022, there were less than 400 inmates who were given life sentences for hom*cide - that's NATIONALLY. It is used only for extremely rare cases, usually criminals who accumulate multiple victims. Additionally, "life sentence" doesn't always mean "until the inmate isn't alive". Even a sentence of 10 years can be called a "life sentence" in Australia. The legal system is completely different, particularly as the death penalty was abolished in 1985. Food for thought: hom*cide rates are more than three times lower in Australia than in the USA per capita (0.86 vs 3.8 per 100,000 in 2021). I know it still doesn't feel like justice for victims and their families, though. :(
America and China, middle eastern countries, are the only countries that really do life in prison and death penalty.. European countries, Australia, Iceland Greenland, Canada, even Mexico rarely give the death penalty or life in prison and believe in reforming unfortunately its sickening 😢😢
Unfortunately, reform isn't possible for life's little accidents. I call him one of 'life's little accidents', because the day that condom broke, & he was conceived. Was the day women in Australia who happened to come across this f**k up, were no longer safe.
The way Celeste and her family were repeatedly let down by the government is absolutely devastating and enraging. That sentence is a JOKE Thank you for telling her story- I hope her family finds peace someday.
In Australia the sentencing rate, especially for violent crimes are shamefully and disgustingly lenient. In all honesty, even for some of the worst crimes I’ve heard of go on here can I remember a life sentence being ruled without some kind of parole being available. Especially when it comes to CSO’s the prosecution rate and how protected they are is shameful.
18 minutes in but I have to mention, Australian here! It’s actually normal for police to say these things to you. DV and Violence towards women has skyrocketed over the last 3 years, and a very big part to play in this is how Australian Police don’t take your concerns seriously, and often will say to you they cannot do anything until something more extreme warrants it.
Gosh, that's so scary... It's similar in Canada tbh. They just look at you and shrug saying "tell us when he acts on something", and I just don't understand how any criminal justice system can operate this way when it's so statistically clear that men like this are inherently dangerous.
Genuinely asking-but in the US, if our local/city police don’t want to take a report, we can go to the county (sheriffs). If they don’t care, we could then try for the state police. Or the state’s federal agencies (like the Colorado Bureau of Investigations), maybe even FBI-also federal but m for over state lines or multi state crimes. If your local police station won’t help, where else can you go? Can you report to other agencies? I think I’ll get a better answer here than if I Google it. 🤷🏻♀️
@@kittikat2318 you can get protection orders put in place with your state police, and reach out to DV support communities, & organisations. They do have a DV goverment fund, up to $15,000 for support to get out of a DV situation, which is obviously amazing and I do applaud this. Must note: almost no advertisement or education is given to women about this, I get what they’d say about why that is, but I think posting DV support phone lines on the inside of our public toilets isn’t going to solve the problem quicker than advertising how someone CAN get out could. And there’s a few more honourable mentions I’m sure I’m missing, but overall you can only go to your State Police to have legal action taken, if they don’t listen, you can go back again, request to speak to someone else, be asked to submit an online form instead of speaking to someone (if any Australian is ever reading this, beg to put in a statement in person because f that stupid website so hard) and just keep pushing for your protection. You can get assistance from these DV organisations to get to Women’s shelters, a safe place, a safety plan, support and guidance, and even just someone to talk to, they do very amazing things that our government and police should be doing. And they carry a major load of protecting women, and women’s individual rights in Australia. They do majority of the education in schools and online. It’s like Australian Government and Police have just given up and are relying on these amazing people to do their work, therefore ensuring that perpetrators go free and women live in fear, constantly defending themselves. I’ve witnessed it countless times as a young manager in a retail space of all women, for over 10 years, and it’s heart breaking
@kittikat2318 as someone going through this . There is no where to go. I have been in he'll for nearly 9 months and it took me going to a local member of parliament for some action was taken when I say some action...1 night in jail. Mind you this person has breached the order over 30 times. I have stopped counting.
The relief and happiness you feel when you hear your child cry for the first time as they’re being born, i imagine the pain and heartache she felt hearing her daughter’s last breath was absolutely devastating. No mother should ever have to experience what she suffered. I wish she never had to go through this
@@Sharletwitch Wow...your viewpoint is so heart wrenching. To hear her daughter's last breath had to be devastating for her mother smh! to compare it to hearing your child's first cry after being born really put things into perspective smh. May this family receive comfort, justice, and healing smh 🥺😭
I actually worked for the same company (but at a different site to Celeste). And yes, there was an expectation for us team leaders to walk out our staff who had either resigned or were fired. We didn’t have security guards onsite and there were multiple situations that team leaders would have to de-escalate themselves. I personally (as a 24 year old female) had a 60+ year old male yell and swear and throw things at me on one of these walk outs. I knew a lot of people who had worked with Celeste and to say they were devastated was an understatement. I also knew a lot of people who had worked with her murderer - all of them said there was always something off about him and some said he had dead eyes.
i was SA’ed in New Zealand in public. The police told me that he would not go to prison because he had a clean record and had to offend at least 3 TIMES. In the end after SAing myself and another woman, he received 11 months ‘supervised probation’. The justice system in New Zealand and Australia is the worst. People are not scared to commit crimes like these because they will be able to serve time and go back to living their lives while people have theirs altered forever.
@@lilianmellado843 thank you for your kind comment ❤️ i am doing well now but try to use my experience with the justice system here to highlight how much it truly needs to change
@@hanlovescows I am in the UK and our justice system isn’t much better unfortunately!! I reported my ex for DV and the police closed the case due to lack of evidence despite hundreds of photos and hours of footage!! Victims deserve more than what they are given and i’m so glad to hear you are using your experience to highlight how much things need to change instead of letting it control your life and destroy you as it’s so easy for that to happen ❤️❤️❤️
I went and looked this up and honestly, infuriated by the judge's response. Apparently she admitted his prospects for rehabilitation were extremely limited, that he showed no remorse, that he clearly was aware of what he had done... but on the very slim chance he MIGHT be rehabilitated she didn't want to take that chance away. When he already stole HERS away, she wanted him to have the chance to live his life. Awful.
The judge is a joke. There is no rehabilitation for these types of people a crime prevention officer states this in "I Profile Serial Killers" on LADbible Stories. She talks about stalking too. I just watched it and then saw Kendall posted.
Let’s see how she feels when he shows up at her house when he’s released from the sentence she gave him. He may have taken a shine to her for being kind to him and we’ve seen how that goes.
They aren't trained in the signs or psychopathy. I just watched a video on LADbible Stories "I profile serial killers" and she talks about the signs and how they lead to the "final crescendo". Stalking is the drip drip, how far the stalker can go and the final act of harming the victim. And it is preventable.
Thank you so much for covering this case. In Australia we have a current and ongoing issue of women being murdered, with 93 being murdered this year already. Any help we can get is greatly appreciated in changing how those who commit such horrific acts are prosecuted and support the victim’s families.
Signed the petition, thanks for sharing this horrific story in hopes to make a change with the system! 36 years for all that he did is bs, he deserves life. Love to her family I hope some positive change happens with their continuing fight for actual justice
👏👏👏Wish more people signed free petitions, took seconds to fill in. Celeste was failed by Authorities right from the beginning! Least we can do is small positive thing for the family & people who find themselves in same position as Celeste.
I'll say this as PC as possible but if someone finds out what he did in jail it will be life. Australian criminals unite in their hatred of people like this.
I’ve had 2 stalkers & I cannot stress enough how important it is to go to the police. Even if they do not seem helpful or say no crime has been committed, try again as sometimes the police give you bad/incorrect information. I had to call the police 3 times before I reached someone who would help. Also, deactivate your social media!! You can go back on when it is safe.
Australian here, I sent the email to Attorney General Symes. I really hope Celeste's family can achieve what they are trying to achieve as well as any other victims of stalking The Australian Government has a lot to work on, including domestic violence. Thank you Kendall for covering this case, means a lot.
My stalking started in 1990 when I was 14…. And no one cared. I reported EVERYTHING… in case I had to defend myself lethally. It continued for over 15 years. It’s living in a constant state of hyper vigilance. Awful 💔
@@isuckatguitar6252 thank you. I’m here though… and healed. While stalking is taken a bit more seriously today, it’s often not taken seriously ENOUGH 💔
These types of people CANNOT be rehabilitated. They cannot. All signs and threats must be taken seriously. These are all leading to what happened to Celeste. Each breach is a signal they can keep doing what they are doing.
As a woman stories like this one really freak me out. To all my fellow women out there: 1. Be aware of your surroundings 2. Always carry some kind of defense mechanism with you 3. Be careful who you let into your personal life 4. Always report any kind of harassment 5. Stay safe out there! ❤❤❤
It's so ridiculous how much we need to watch out. Had a discussion with my boyfriend about it. He doesn't understand and thinks it is overthinking. Mind blown
@ I never said she did. It’s just always a good idea to practice these safety measures even if they failed one person. She did everything right. This was not her fault.
This one was a hard watch. I have a mutual friend with Celeste and seeing how devasted she was after her passing made me feel like I lost someone too. Violence against women in Australia is getting scary, and our government doesn't care. Thank you for covering cases from here and spreading awareness.
You know what's awful? I live in Melbourne and I've never heard of Celeste, or this case. I've never heard of him. And most sadly, I was 'pleasantly surprised' that he got as much as 36 years! "Life" sentences here are dismal and often more like 25 years! It's truly disgusting! 😢
What was that judge thinking? Does she have a thing against strong, smart, beautiful young women? Does she have a thing for the beast? Someone paying her? Or she just has absolutely no sense of morality whatsoever? Unbelievable.
I could not believe the judge said that at 46:11 He doesn't deserve life imprisonment? Why?? Does taking someone else's life (especially in that way) not deserve that? Unfortunately, I live in Canada and our justice system is not much better. 😡 Why are the justice systems constantly on the side of the criminals? Why not the victims? It's so frustrating.
I live in Canada too and our justice system is a joke ! The priority is the criminal not the victims. I'm sad to see it's the case elsewhere in the world too.
It's so frustrating that no matter the jurisdiction or place, stalking legislation is basically useless. The fact that most law enforcement can't do anything until AFTER the stalker does something violent is such a failure of law.
I am a woman in Australia. Please please please do more women's stories from Australia 🇦🇺 to expose what is happening over here. 1 woman a week is dying in Australia, but our government CONTINUES to say the system isn't broken 'NOT TRUE'. That police response is the general response, so women continue to die 😢 It might surprise you that 30 years in prison is actually a high sentence in Australia Please do more stories. THANK YOU ❤
Australian here. Australia regularly gives light sentences to violent offenders. They are often given another chance at freedom. It’s terrible for future victims. This is such a tragic story. I hope Celeste’s family find some peace.
Oh that poor, beautiful girl. Look, I live in Australia. Based on horrific experiences of my own, I can totally see how this could happen. The justice system does not help women in danger. That interview with her mum - oh my heart 💔 I will definitely be sending that letter.
It’s so scary how easily he could go from no one to someone’s worst nightmare. She was too good for this world and too kind, which shouldn’t even be a concept
Kendall, your content on true crime is significantly better then others, and the main reason for this is the fact that you express emotion while going through each story. When you spoke about being a mother and relating to Aggie, it showed real care and sadness for Celeste's story. Thank you for creating content which is full of humanity and emotion. It is disheartening to see others sharing true crime stories in a robotic way.
As a mom to a baby girl, the interview with Celeste’s mom was incredibly hard to watch. That is a pain I can’t even imagine feeling. The beast doesn’t deserve to see the light of day ever again… his sentencing was appalling.
That video of Celeste’s mom…god. It really just choked me up. I cannot imagine. And the comment about not wanting to drop her on the glass. She cared for her daughter more than words can describe. And the way she tells the events of the night..you can tell she’s fighting so hard to get the words out. What a horrific scene to wake up to.
Kendall, you have no clue how much you've helped my anxiety & depression. At my lowest, most lonely moments, your podcast, channel, and The Sesh have been there for me. Tysm for being you 🫶🏼
As a victim of DV and being stalked, I didn't get help from the authorities when I went to them. They literally told me I was overreacting and overthinking. Then, when my abuser did finally attack me, they said there wasn't enough evidence to charge him with ANYTHING. I didn't get a restraining order, DV charges pressed, nothing. All because the law enforcement said there wasn't any evidence.
94 women in Australia have been killed thust far, and it's absolutely disgusting how our justice system (lack thereof) is so terribly broken. Our system is there to defend the perpetrators, not the victims.
Her mom! How absolutely heartbreaking. That was hard to hear… I work with victims of abuse, sexual assault, and human trafficking. Our agency gives OOP (orders of protection) to victims for free. Our judges take these orders very seriously. I’m so thankful for that. Sweet Celeste, I am so sorry. ❤
Kendall, never apologise for your anger in calling him a POS. There are not enough words to describe his evil. There are so many instances in our court system, (Aussie here 🇦🇺), where victims are failed by that system. My heart goes out to the family, friends and colleagues of Celeste and I hope the memories they have are a blessing on the road to healing.
Thank you for covering this case so well, Kendall. As someone who lives in Victoria, Australia, it frustrates me to the ends of the earth that my government does not hold the priority of their citizens safety high enough to properly prosecute dangerous criminals, especially those that vocalise intent to offend again. I know that most of you do not live in this area of the world, but I would definitely want to encourage you to please sign the petition and advocate on the behalf of victims in this state. So many women I know are terrified for their lives, as well as the lives of the generations ahead.
This is why I don’t add people I don’t know on social media and this is why I keep everything private and I will teach my children the same. It’s insane how dangerous another human can be that we have to be so cautious
Unfortunately, this behavior almost always comes from someone you know, even if it’s someone you don’t know well. Even in this case, she barely knew the guy, but that in person interaction at their work was enough for him to start doing this. It’s more likely to come from a friend of a friend or someone you’ve come across a few times than to come from a stranger. And it’s more likely to come from a current or former partner. Most violent crimes and sex crimes are the same way. It isn’t a creepy stranger we all need to look out for, it’s a trusted family friend who gets a little too attached, or a controlling boyfriend, or a friend who freaks out after they don’t get exactly what they want, or an acquaintance who gets too attached. We can’t just hope to avoid awful people, we need to have the skills to recognize signs of a problem before things get dangerous.
I'm so glad to see Celeste's case here talked about by you Kendall! Celeste's mother is an absolute warrior, demanding justice and reform for her daughter. As an Australian, I can absolutely say the system is broken in this country. Huge issues with bail, huge issues with sentencing. We're also in the midst of a DV crisis, so many women and children have died this year. The more awareness we can bring to these issues, the more chance we can prevent deaths like Celeste's.
Yes Kendall I want to thank you for bringing attention to domestic violence and stalking of women. I am an RN and I feel this goes on much too frequently in our society. The statistic that murder is the number one cause of a pregnant woman’s death shocks me so much!! It is totally unacceptable. And Celeste was such a beacon of kindness and concern for others!! You are the best Kendall!!
Thank you so much for covering this case, I live in Victoria and the police and legal system have failed so, so many women. I watched this happen and was utterly disgusted and pained. I have joined protests and signed a number of petitions but still nothing has changed. All we can hope for is that people keep applying pressure to the government, the more voices the better. It doesnt matter what part of the world you live in, please send your voice. Thank you to everyone who has already done so.
Utterly impressed by your contribution to enforcing change. I am from Sydney and study law - if changes are made to Victorian laws this may also contribute to shaping other jurisdictions such as NSW! Petition has been signed and email has been sent!
Thanks KR, I'm Australian, and it's crazy how lenient we are over here. We seem to look after people's "rights" when their actions truly should have removed them all together... Sad, tragic story!
I am about to have a baby girl. & this really really broke my heart. How horrifying, how infuriating! I am commenting hoping this video gets to more people. BUT ALSO, any Australian’s out there, i encourage you to share it & spread the word!
Signed the petition and sent the email to Jaclyn Symes. I'm from the UK and immediately questioned whether I could do anything, so thank you for letting us know we can! Honestly, it scares me that nobody saw/can see what a dangerous man this is. I've signed for Celeste and her family but also selfishly for me because my babies will be all grown up when this man is let out and I can't let them grow up in a world where I didn't try to do what I could. Sending all my love to Celeste's family. Hopefully this man gets whats coming to him!
Feels great to be back. Due to mental health reasons i have been staying away from true crime since january. Sounds like a very long time but i really needed this time focus on getting well, but now i back!❤
Hey Kendall, I’m from Australia and unfortunately life over here is only 25 years. It’s disgusting I would prefer your justice system than ours . Thanks Alison
I’ve seen many my a case in the US where perpetrators have been out on bail or the victim was not taken seriously It’s unfortunately a world wide problem
Kendall, thank you for covering this case and being so respectful. As soon as I saw this pop up in my new videos my eyes filled with tears and I got goosebumps. I was a similar age to Celeste and grew up in Melbourne not too far from her, this case shook every single person I knew. The person who did this to her in an absolute monster and never got what he deserved, she was such a beautiful young lady with such a bright future and my heart breaks for her family, partner and friends still to this day..
Hi Kendall! I discovered your channel during a week at home with COVID in 2022-it was the first time I could truly rest after nonstop work in healthcare (I’m a pharmacist). I’ve been a fan ever since and look forward to your uploads every week! I’ve watched them all, and now I listen on Spotify while driving. 😂 I really appreciate how respectfully you present these cases and give a voice to the victims and their families. Keep up the amazing work! ❤️
australian viewer here and usually a silent viewer. but thank you for sharing celeste's story far and wide. australia's laws are beyond broken, and more women are going to continue to die until changes are made. my heart breaks for celeste's family, and I hope changes are made, because we won't stop until they are.
Listening to her mother get so upset in that interview is one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve heard in a true crime video. I am so so sorry for her family’s loss. How horrible.
In Germany a life sentence is only 25 years. If the prisoner is obviously still a danger to society, they can keep him longer. Our justice system is really mild, especially compared to the US, where people get more than humanly possible. While the idea to give people a chance to change for the better is really nice when it comes to certain crimes, I don't think murderers deserve that kindness.
It's the same here. Generally "life" in Australia = 25 years. So I am not surprised by this result at all. Not sure if it's still this way all some states but it also used to be 40% sentence discount for an early guilty plea.
Sadly in Australia this is very common & to be blunt there’s so many more brutal cases like this.. e.g. jus a this year not even 1km away a 19yo SHOT his 25+yo missus which happened to be one of the mums at the daycare centre my partner runs. Incredibly sad
Xiaozheng Lin... killed 2 women in Melbourne in 24 hours. He was convicted to 15 years, 9 year non parole. With time served he could be out in 7 years. They made a DEAL with him. Make it make sense!
Just signed the petition.. this is absolutely heartbreaking. I will never understand judges like this. This family has been through enough, I can’t even imagine… Justice for Celeste and her family.
As a mother of 4 little girls I am so terrified of what's to come as they grow older. My oldest is almost a teenager. Hearing this mother broke my heart. This world can be so devastating. This young lady was so beautiful and would have done something great in life. Some people are monsters why couldn't he ask for help he knew what was in his head.
Social media has made it easier for stalkers to stalk and harass their victims and it isn’t just an aspect of social media. I think officers who shrug off reports of harassment like this should be reprimanded make it clear that you don’t shrug off victims.
I signed Celeste’s petition. I watch a lot of true crime but this case is just heartbreaking. I’m a mom of a wonderful young adult daughter.. my deepest condolences to her mom and family 💔❤️🩹I pray that all of their work brings about change and some sense of peace
Glad to see an Australian case again! I'm from Melbourne and i remember this case so well, absolutely devastating 😔 our justice system continues to be a disgrace
thank you so much for covering an Australian case, this one happened right where I live, but there are thousands more of DV murders and random murders of women every year, and the government doesn't take it seriously. Even when the murderers have already been arrested for DV and the victims had already tried to ask for help. Thank you also for brining the petition to light and the call to email our government, I wasn't aware of either option before this video!!
another shocking Australian case was the murder of Mackenzie Anderson, at 21 years old. She had a restraining order against her ex partner and even though she called the police when he broke into her home, he was able to murder her in front of her three year old. SO horrific.
Our legal system is a joke. My Psychologist was murdered by her husband and Victoria Police referred to her as a ‘serial pest’ when she would call them scared when her ex kept breaking the Protection Order. Protection Orders here don’t mean anything.
Women can’t do literally anything. Can’t just simply exist. Can’t ignore weirdos. Can’t entertain the weirdos either. Every choice has danger and risk. I’m so tired
I’m currently being harassed, I don’t want to use the term stalked because it scares me, by my next door neighbour. I went to the police after I started receiving letters and consistent visits and they made me feel as if I was wasting time! Australia’s action towards women’s safety is appalling, Celeste deserved better we all deserve better.
Thank you for sharing such a devastating case about such an incredible woman. She’s from the same city as a lot of my friends so we have mutual friends and they continue to celebrate Celeste constantly. Everyone knows how beautiful, how intelligent and how great an impact she has had on the world. The police absolutely failed her and did nowhere near enough to protect her. All of my love goes out to Aggie and her family and friends - I don’t know how they are able to keep going 💛
That 2 bit Temu version of John Oliver should have been punished for breaching the no contact order. There needs to be a range of punishments for doing that that match the severity of his behavior, including jail time. Blood is on the hands of the court and blood is on the hands of the police.
Thanks for always standing up for those that can no longer stand on their own… you’re definitely my kind of people! ♥️ thanks for all of the awareness you spread
I've been watching u for so many years and absolutely love how you've always been into charity and raising funds for the families. And today seeing u with ur husband being all happy and talking about ur own foundation makes me so happy. Gud luck with this initiative and I hope u continue to grow and help those in need.
Guys, and girls, no means no. No is not an invitation. I can’t believe the length some individuals will go. Its psychotic. The fact that not even in her daughters death, momma couldn’t even read her thoughts. These last thoughts should be absolutely unfiltered. That’s the LEAST that should be allowed.
It’s a shame sentencing isn’t done more like in America! Here in the UK it’s not unusual for ‘life’ to mean 20-25 years. It needs to change for people like this!
Thank you for covering this story and highlighting issues in the justice system. Unfortunately in Victoria maximum penalty for Murder is only 25 years.
JUDGES MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE
If this had happened to the judge's daughter, the judge would be singing a different tune. 🤬
@@medusa3592I was just about to say that. It’s sickening.
Who appoints these liberal judges?
The fact that the judge already made up a number in her mind before the actual hearing tells you all you need to know. This judge does not need to be a judge anymore.
@@pattyadams2338Being liberal has nothing at all to do with it. There are statues that each carry a maximum sentence and Judges must follow/stay within the law. They can’t just go around making laws as they please. Tell me you don’t know anything about the legal system without telling me you don’t know anything about the legal system.
WHY would they go easy on him? This is the kind of man who will 100% do this again.
And they don't stop, you can think they have, and you find out 8 years later, it's still happening
Life sentences are extremely rare in Australia - as of 2022, there were less than 400 inmates who were given life sentences for hom*cide - that's NATIONALLY.
It is used only for extremely rare cases, usually criminals who accumulate multiple victims. Additionally, "life sentence" doesn't always mean "until the inmate isn't alive". Even a sentence of 10 years can be called a "life sentence" in Australia. The legal system is completely different, particularly as the death penalty was abolished in 1985.
Food for thought: hom*cide rates are more than three times lower in Australia than in the USA per capita (0.86 vs 3.8 per 100,000 in 2021).
I know it still doesn't feel like justice for victims and their families, though. :(
@@veryvanillavideos He belongs UNDER the prison. I'm aware of the differences in legal system (at least in the western world) and it's still bullshit.
America and China, middle eastern countries, are the only countries that really do life in prison and death penalty.. European countries, Australia, Iceland Greenland, Canada, even Mexico rarely give the death penalty or life in prison and believe in reforming unfortunately its sickening 😢😢
Unfortunately, reform isn't possible for life's little accidents. I call him one of 'life's little accidents', because the day that condom broke, & he was conceived. Was the day women in Australia who happened to come across this f**k up, were no longer safe.
The way Celeste and her family were repeatedly let down by the government is absolutely devastating and enraging. That sentence is a JOKE
Thank you for telling her story- I hope her family finds peace someday.
that’s the Aussie government for you, our justice system is that WORST.
Law enforcement does not take these crimes seriously.
In Australia the sentencing rate, especially for violent crimes are shamefully and disgustingly lenient. In all honesty, even for some of the worst crimes I’ve heard of go on here can I remember a life sentence being ruled without some kind of parole being available. Especially when it comes to CSO’s the prosecution rate and how protected they are is shameful.
Did that judge say: "His right to mercy is MORE IMPORTANT than HER right to LIVE???!!!"
EXCUSE ME????!!!
18:26 ❤❤❤❤❤hqjjjjjhmm😊😊
dude same. when i heard that my mouth dropped to the floor. why should he be given the mercy that he never gave celeste
@indigenoustruecrime no the judge didnt with the sentence that was given that's how her family felt ❤
That was the mother's quote, but the judge might as well have said it by their actions
Yes the judge did say that. She should have been immediately disbarred from ever being a judge after that comment!!
18 minutes in but I have to mention, Australian here! It’s actually normal for police to say these things to you. DV and Violence towards women has skyrocketed over the last 3 years, and a very big part to play in this is how Australian Police don’t take your concerns seriously, and often will say to you they cannot do anything until something more extreme warrants it.
Gosh, that's so scary... It's similar in Canada tbh. They just look at you and shrug saying "tell us when he acts on something", and I just don't understand how any criminal justice system can operate this way when it's so statistically clear that men like this are inherently dangerous.
That makes me sad and angry af! I’m n the US
Genuinely asking-but in the US, if our local/city police don’t want to take a report, we can go to the county (sheriffs). If they don’t care, we could then try for the state police. Or the state’s federal agencies (like the Colorado Bureau of Investigations), maybe even FBI-also federal but m for over state lines or multi state crimes. If your local police station won’t help, where else can you go? Can you report to other agencies? I think I’ll get a better answer here than if I Google it. 🤷🏻♀️
@@kittikat2318 you can get protection orders put in place with your state police, and reach out to DV support communities, & organisations. They do have a DV goverment fund, up to $15,000 for support to get out of a DV situation, which is obviously amazing and I do applaud this. Must note: almost no advertisement or education is given to women about this, I get what they’d say about why that is, but I think posting DV support phone lines on the inside of our public toilets isn’t going to solve the problem quicker than advertising how someone CAN get out could.
And there’s a few more honourable mentions I’m sure I’m missing, but overall you can only go to your State Police to have legal action taken, if they don’t listen, you can go back again, request to speak to someone else, be asked to submit an online form instead of speaking to someone (if any Australian is ever reading this, beg to put in a statement in person because f that stupid website so hard) and just keep pushing for your protection.
You can get assistance from these DV organisations to get to Women’s shelters, a safe place, a safety plan, support and guidance, and even just someone to talk to, they do very amazing things that our government and police should be doing. And they carry a major load of protecting women, and women’s individual rights in Australia. They do majority of the education in schools and online. It’s like Australian Government and Police have just given up and are relying on these amazing people to do their work, therefore ensuring that perpetrators go free and women live in fear, constantly defending themselves. I’ve witnessed it countless times as a young manager in a retail space of all women, for over 10 years, and it’s heart breaking
@kittikat2318 as someone going through this . There is no where to go. I have been in he'll for nearly 9 months and it took me going to a local member of parliament for some action was taken when I say some action...1 night in jail. Mind you this person has breached the order over 30 times. I have stopped counting.
The way she closes her eyes😔 she’s replaying those moments in her head, she has not forgotten her daughter’s last breath, so heartbreaking 💔
The relief and happiness you feel when you hear your child cry for the first time as they’re being born, i imagine the pain and heartache she felt hearing her daughter’s last breath was absolutely devastating. No mother should ever have to experience what she suffered. I wish she never had to go through this
@@Sharletwitch Wow...your viewpoint is so heart wrenching. To hear her daughter's last breath had to be devastating for her mother smh! to compare it to hearing your child's first cry after being born really put things into perspective smh. May this family receive comfort, justice, and healing smh 🥺😭
Hearing her mom describe that night was heart wrenching. Wow! That really messed me up.
I know it’s horrible
For real that’s such a wildly traumatic situation
I balled my eyes out here at work, and acted like it was allergies
I have tears STREAMING down my face watching this footage of her
Bawled my eyes out in bed listening 23.20 uk, Aggy was obviously reliving that moment it was heartbreaking 💔
Shame on that company for sending a woman to make sure a man that got terminated left the building.
That’s what I was thinking!!!! What in the world!
For real. Usually you would send like a security guard or something???? What the heck?!
Literally my first thought. Such bullshit
I actually worked for the same company (but at a different site to Celeste). And yes, there was an expectation for us team leaders to walk out our staff who had either resigned or were fired. We didn’t have security guards onsite and there were multiple situations that team leaders would have to de-escalate themselves. I personally (as a 24 year old female) had a 60+ year old male yell and swear and throw things at me on one of these walk outs.
I knew a lot of people who had worked with Celeste and to say they were devastated was an understatement. I also knew a lot of people who had worked with her murderer - all of them said there was always something off about him and some said he had dead eyes.
@@melissajames7812 I hope they changed that policy!
i was SA’ed in New Zealand in public. The police told me that he would not go to prison because he had a clean record and had to offend at least 3 TIMES. In the end after SAing myself and another woman, he received 11 months ‘supervised probation’. The justice system in New Zealand and Australia is the worst. People are not scared to commit crimes like these because they will be able to serve time and go back to living their lives while people have theirs altered forever.
I’m so sorry you went through this. I hope you’re healing and get the justice you deserve ❤
I’m so incredibly sorry you experienced that 💔 i am sending so much love and healing to you 🩷🩷
@@lilianmellado843 thank you for your kind comment ❤️ i am doing well now but try to use my experience with the justice system here to highlight how much it truly needs to change
@@wickedmurph thank you ❤️
@@hanlovescows I am in the UK and our justice system isn’t much better unfortunately!! I reported my ex for DV and the police closed the case due to lack of evidence despite hundreds of photos and hours of footage!! Victims deserve more than what they are given and i’m so glad to hear you are using your experience to highlight how much things need to change instead of letting it control your life and destroy you as it’s so easy for that to happen ❤️❤️❤️
I went and looked this up and honestly, infuriated by the judge's response. Apparently she admitted his prospects for rehabilitation were extremely limited, that he showed no remorse, that he clearly was aware of what he had done... but on the very slim chance he MIGHT be rehabilitated she didn't want to take that chance away. When he already stole HERS away, she wanted him to have the chance to live his life. Awful.
The judge is a joke. There is no rehabilitation for these types of people a crime prevention officer states this in "I Profile Serial Killers" on LADbible Stories. She talks about stalking too. I just watched it and then saw Kendall posted.
Let’s see how she feels when he shows up at her house when he’s released from the sentence she gave him. He may have taken a shine to her for being kind to him and we’ve seen how that goes.
She'd have a different view if it was her child!
She should be careful being so understanding and "nice" to him. The last woman that was clearly those two things to him ended up dead smh 😭
i’d like to start some form to get this judge fired bc that is ridiculous
"Just ignore him.", famous last words. Why do cops keep giving this terrible advice?
Bc they are lazy!!!
They aren't trained in the signs or psychopathy. I just watched a video on LADbible Stories "I profile serial killers" and she talks about the signs and how they lead to the "final crescendo". Stalking is the drip drip, how far the stalker can go and the final act of harming the victim. And it is preventable.
@@JenAgrippathey are still police and have the job of protecting and they did not
For real, they ignore stalking, harassment and sex crimes enough for the whole class 🙄🙄
It’s kinda like if it was that simple she would’ve though of it 😒 ignoring these people is never enough
Thank you so much for covering this case. In Australia we have a current and ongoing issue of women being murdered, with 93 being murdered this year already. Any help we can get is greatly appreciated in changing how those who commit such horrific acts are prosecuted and support the victim’s families.
Ninety four 😪
the way my rage is building as i watch on
Same here.
Signed the petition, thanks for sharing this horrific story in hopes to make a change with the system! 36 years for all that he did is bs, he deserves life. Love to her family I hope some positive change happens with their continuing fight for actual justice
👏👏👏Wish more people signed free petitions, took seconds to fill in. Celeste was failed by Authorities right from the beginning! Least we can do is small positive thing for the family & people who find themselves in same position as Celeste.
I'll say this as PC as possible but if someone finds out what he did in jail it will be life. Australian criminals unite in their hatred of people like this.
I’ve had 2 stalkers & I cannot stress enough how important it is to go to the police. Even if they do not seem helpful or say no crime has been committed, try again as sometimes the police give you bad/incorrect information. I had to call the police 3 times before I reached someone who would help. Also, deactivate your social media!! You can go back on when it is safe.
@@AcidCasper17 Yeah, even if the police aren't being particularly helpful, at least there is a record.
@ Exactly! And tell everyone you know so they can keep an eye out too & not share any info about you on social media, etc.
While my experience with police has been very unhelpful in these situations I totally agree that at the very least it’s documentation!
Australian here, I sent the email to Attorney General Symes.
I really hope Celeste's family can achieve what they are trying to achieve as well as any other victims of stalking
The Australian Government has a lot to work on, including domestic violence.
Thank you Kendall for covering this case, means a lot.
The mum thinking its her fault is another level of devastating 😥😢😢
My stalking started in 1990 when I was 14…. And no one cared. I reported EVERYTHING… in case I had to defend myself lethally. It continued for over 15 years. It’s living in a constant state of hyper vigilance. Awful 💔
I literally cannot imagine what this has done to you and your mental health. I am so so sorry.
That's awful! Sorry u had to deal with this.
Bloody hell! Thats dreadful 😢
@@chynnhowe I’m lucky, I survived. And therapy and self defense helped. But too many times, it doesn’t end this way…. 💔
@@isuckatguitar6252 thank you. I’m here though… and healed. While stalking is taken a bit more seriously today, it’s often not taken seriously ENOUGH 💔
Someone wisely said that stalking is murder in slow motion.
These types of people CANNOT be rehabilitated. They cannot. All signs and threats must be taken seriously. These are all leading to what happened to Celeste. Each breach is a signal they can keep doing what they are doing.
Absolutely 💯
As a woman stories like this one really freak me out. To all my fellow women out there:
1. Be aware of your surroundings
2. Always carry some kind of defense mechanism with you
3. Be careful who you let into your personal life
4. Always report any kind of harassment
5. Stay safe out there!
❤❤❤
It's so ridiculous how much we need to watch out. Had a discussion with my boyfriend about it. He doesn't understand and thinks it is overthinking. Mind blown
@ it’s impossible to understand outside of the female perspective. Sad but true.
@@skyjoy07Not necessarily. My boyfriend is very understanding of this issue.
It’s all good advice but she didn’t “ let” him in
@ I never said she did. It’s just always a good idea to practice these safety measures even if they failed one person. She did everything right. This was not her fault.
This one was a hard watch. I have a mutual friend with Celeste and seeing how devasted she was after her passing made me feel like I lost someone too. Violence against women in Australia is getting scary, and our government doesn't care. Thank you for covering cases from here and spreading awareness.
You know what's awful? I live in Melbourne and I've never heard of Celeste, or this case. I've never heard of him. And most sadly, I was 'pleasantly surprised' that he got as much as 36 years! "Life" sentences here are dismal and often more like 25 years! It's truly disgusting! 😢
Same here 😢
Her mother’s interview was devastating. Brought me to tears and I had to take a pause and come back.
What was that judge thinking? Does she have a thing against strong, smart, beautiful young women? Does she have a thing for the beast? Someone paying her? Or she just has absolutely no sense of morality whatsoever? Unbelievable.
Judge like that needs to be revaluated for their decisions. Something is not right.
Women like that are truly male identified pick mes.
All of the above
I could not believe the judge said that at 46:11
He doesn't deserve life imprisonment? Why?? Does taking someone else's life (especially in that way) not deserve that?
Unfortunately, I live in Canada and our justice system is not much better. 😡
Why are the justice systems constantly on the side of the criminals? Why not the victims?
It's so frustrating.
I was thinking the same thing! If stabbing someone over 20 times doesn’t warrant a life sentence, what on earth does?!
I live in Canada too and our justice system is a joke ! The priority is the criminal not the victims. I'm sad to see it's the case elsewhere in the world too.
Same pathetic sentences here in the UK. Especially when looking at violence against women.
Leftist areas do that here in the USA too.
It's so frustrating that no matter the jurisdiction or place, stalking legislation is basically useless. The fact that most law enforcement can't do anything until AFTER the stalker does something violent is such a failure of law.
I am a woman in Australia. Please please please do more women's stories from Australia 🇦🇺 to expose what is happening over here. 1 woman a week is dying in Australia, but our government CONTINUES to say the system isn't broken 'NOT TRUE'.
That police response is the general response, so women continue to die 😢
It might surprise you that 30 years in prison is actually a high sentence in Australia
Please do more stories.
THANK YOU ❤
Australian here. Australia regularly gives light sentences to violent offenders. They are often given another chance at freedom. It’s terrible for future victims. This is such a tragic story. I hope Celeste’s family find some peace.
Oh that poor, beautiful girl.
Look, I live in Australia.
Based on horrific experiences of my own, I can totally see how this could happen.
The justice system does not help women in danger.
That interview with her mum - oh my heart 💔
I will definitely be sending that letter.
It’s so scary how easily he could go from no one to someone’s worst nightmare. She was too good for this world and too kind, which shouldn’t even be a concept
Kendall, your content on true crime is significantly better then others, and the main reason for this is the fact that you express emotion while going through each story. When you spoke about being a mother and relating to Aggie, it showed real care and sadness for Celeste's story. Thank you for creating content which is full of humanity and emotion. It is disheartening to see others sharing true crime stories in a robotic way.
As a mom to a baby girl, the interview with Celeste’s mom was incredibly hard to watch. That is a pain I can’t even imagine feeling. The beast doesn’t deserve to see the light of day ever again… his sentencing was appalling.
That video of Celeste’s mom…god. It really just choked me up. I cannot imagine. And the comment about not wanting to drop her on the glass. She cared for her daughter more than words can describe. And the way she tells the events of the night..you can tell she’s fighting so hard to get the words out. What a horrific scene to wake up to.
Kendall, you have no clue how much you've helped my anxiety & depression. At my lowest, most lonely moments, your podcast, channel, and The Sesh have been there for me. Tysm for being you 🫶🏼
Sending you love🩷🩷
Ditto ❤ sending love
I’m so happy to hear this☺️ thank you
Sending prayers your way. I experienced a really bad depression session recently, but I promise it will get better ❤️🩹
God bless you, you got this 🙏🏻
As a victim of DV and being stalked, I didn't get help from the authorities when I went to them. They literally told me I was overreacting and overthinking. Then, when my abuser did finally attack me, they said there wasn't enough evidence to charge him with ANYTHING. I didn't get a restraining order, DV charges pressed, nothing. All because the law enforcement said there wasn't any evidence.
This is so sad..! All because a male can’t take no for an answer.. Someone who has a current stalker it is scary, and not a joke!
94 women in Australia have been killed thust far, and it's absolutely disgusting how our justice system (lack thereof) is so terribly broken. Our system is there to defend the perpetrators, not the victims.
This case is truly heart wrenching. Thank you for sharing and being open with your own emotions. Praying for their family.
Her mom! How absolutely heartbreaking. That was hard to hear… I work with victims of abuse, sexual assault, and human trafficking. Our agency gives OOP (orders of protection) to victims for free. Our judges take these orders very seriously. I’m so thankful for that. Sweet Celeste, I am so sorry. ❤
Kendall, never apologise for your anger in calling him a POS. There are not enough words to describe his evil. There are so many instances in our court system, (Aussie here 🇦🇺), where victims are failed by that system. My heart goes out to the family, friends and colleagues of Celeste and I hope the memories they have are a blessing on the road to healing.
Thank you for covering this case so well, Kendall. As someone who lives in Victoria, Australia, it frustrates me to the ends of the earth that my government does not hold the priority of their citizens safety high enough to properly prosecute dangerous criminals, especially those that vocalise intent to offend again. I know that most of you do not live in this area of the world, but I would definitely want to encourage you to please sign the petition and advocate on the behalf of victims in this state. So many women I know are terrified for their lives, as well as the lives of the generations ahead.
I know it’s so hard for people to get actual life here in Australia
Gosh I just got to the part where her mum described that night and it has completely shattered me, i just want to hug that poor woman 😭
I’m an Australian… and the amount of reports with evidence they had put in before this monster got to her is disgusting!
This is why I don’t add people I don’t know on social media and this is why I keep everything private and I will teach my children the same. It’s insane how dangerous another human can be that we have to be so cautious
Unfortunately, this behavior almost always comes from someone you know, even if it’s someone you don’t know well. Even in this case, she barely knew the guy, but that in person interaction at their work was enough for him to start doing this. It’s more likely to come from a friend of a friend or someone you’ve come across a few times than to come from a stranger. And it’s more likely to come from a current or former partner. Most violent crimes and sex crimes are the same way. It isn’t a creepy stranger we all need to look out for, it’s a trusted family friend who gets a little too attached, or a controlling boyfriend, or a friend who freaks out after they don’t get exactly what they want, or an acquaintance who gets too attached. We can’t just hope to avoid awful people, we need to have the skills to recognize signs of a problem before things get dangerous.
I'm so glad to see Celeste's case here talked about by you Kendall! Celeste's mother is an absolute warrior, demanding justice and reform for her daughter. As an Australian, I can absolutely say the system is broken in this country. Huge issues with bail, huge issues with sentencing. We're also in the midst of a DV crisis, so many women and children have died this year. The more awareness we can bring to these issues, the more chance we can prevent deaths like Celeste's.
Kendall, your advocacy for all victims is just incredible. You speak so eloquently and passionately, i adore you and what you do!❤️❤️
Yes Kendall I want to thank you for bringing attention to domestic violence and stalking of women. I am an RN and I feel this goes on much too frequently in our society. The statistic that murder is the number one cause of a pregnant woman’s death shocks me so much!! It is totally unacceptable. And Celeste was such a beacon of kindness and concern for others!! You are the best Kendall!!
Thank you so much for covering this case, I live in Victoria and the police and legal system have failed so, so many women. I watched this happen and was utterly disgusted and pained. I have joined protests and signed a number of petitions but still nothing has changed. All we can hope for is that people keep applying pressure to the government, the more voices the better. It doesnt matter what part of the world you live in, please send your voice. Thank you to everyone who has already done so.
Utterly impressed by your contribution to enforcing change. I am from Sydney and study law - if changes are made to Victorian laws this may also contribute to shaping other jurisdictions such as NSW! Petition has been signed and email has been sent!
Thanks KR, I'm Australian, and it's crazy how lenient we are over here. We seem to look after people's "rights" when their actions truly should have removed them all together... Sad, tragic story!
I am about to have a baby girl. & this really really broke my heart. How horrifying, how infuriating! I am commenting hoping this video gets to more people. BUT ALSO, any Australian’s out there, i encourage you to share it & spread the word!
unfortunately as women and mothers we have to stick together now no matter what, protect eachother, protect our girls and babies ❤️😢
Signed the petition and sent the email to Jaclyn Symes. I'm from the UK and immediately questioned whether I could do anything, so thank you for letting us know we can! Honestly, it scares me that nobody saw/can see what a dangerous man this is. I've signed for Celeste and her family but also selfishly for me because my babies will be all grown up when this man is let out and I can't let them grow up in a world where I didn't try to do what I could. Sending all my love to Celeste's family. Hopefully this man gets whats coming to him!
That interview with her mom......I started tearing up.
HOW IS STALKING NOT ILLEGAL!?!? IT SHOULD BE ITS OWN CRIME, NOT EVEN A SUBSET OF HARASSMENT. STALKING KILLS.
Feels great to be back. Due to mental health reasons i have been staying away from true crime since january. Sounds like a very long time but i really needed this time focus on getting well, but now i back!❤
Happy your ok.😊
I completely understand that situation. Took a few months' break from true crime myself this year. Glad you are doing better!
I have never cried to one of your stories but listening to the mom my heart BROKE!!! 😭😭💔
I love everything you do to help the community and the family of the victims.
May the memories of love outweigh the grief of loss.
This was so preventable. So fucking angry. And the judge deserves to have her job reevaluated.
‼️‼️‼️
Hey Kendall, I’m from Australia and unfortunately life over here is only 25 years. It’s disgusting I would prefer your justice system than ours .
Thanks Alison
I’ve seen many my a case in the US where perpetrators have been out on bail or the victim was not taken seriously It’s unfortunately a world wide problem
Its appalling that his sentence is actually harsh (top end) here in VIC for taking a life :(
It's like saying, if you don't like being stalked, just don't go anywhere! Wth??
Kendall, thank you for covering this case and being so respectful. As soon as I saw this pop up in my new videos my eyes filled with tears and I got goosebumps.
I was a similar age to Celeste and grew up in Melbourne not too far from her, this case shook every single person I knew.
The person who did this to her in an absolute monster and never got what he deserved, she was such a beautiful young lady with such a bright future and my heart breaks for her family, partner and friends still to this day..
Hi Kendall! I discovered your channel during a week at home with COVID in 2022-it was the first time I could truly rest after nonstop work in healthcare (I’m a pharmacist). I’ve been a fan ever since and look forward to your uploads every week! I’ve watched them all, and now I listen on Spotify while driving. 😂 I really appreciate how respectfully you present these cases and give a voice to the victims and their families. Keep up the amazing work! ❤️
Me too I'm a nurse ❤ my husband says I can't wait to drive with Sylvia and kendall 😂😂😂😂
australian viewer here and usually a silent viewer. but thank you for sharing celeste's story far and wide. australia's laws are beyond broken, and more women are going to continue to die until changes are made. my heart breaks for celeste's family, and I hope changes are made, because we won't stop until they are.
Listening to her mother get so upset in that interview is one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve heard in a true crime video. I am so so sorry for her family’s loss. How horrible.
Her mom’s testimony brought me to tears. I hope she can find joy again.
What a monster!!!!! I cannot believe his sentence!!!!!!! How horrific for Celeste and her family. Just incredible
That mom’s interview…no words. Just heartbreaking.
In Germany a life sentence is only 25 years. If the prisoner is obviously still a danger to society, they can keep him longer. Our justice system is really mild, especially compared to the US, where people get more than humanly possible.
While the idea to give people a chance to change for the better is really nice when it comes to certain crimes, I don't think murderers deserve that kindness.
It’s 20 years in Australia before parole unless it’s stated
It's the same here. Generally "life" in Australia = 25 years. So I am not surprised by this result at all. Not sure if it's still this way all some states but it also used to be 40% sentence discount for an early guilty plea.
I pray we are able to make a difference & help this family, absolutely devastating 💔
Sadly in Australia this is very common & to be blunt there’s so many more brutal cases like this.. e.g. jus a this year not even 1km away a 19yo SHOT his 25+yo missus which happened to be one of the mums at the daycare centre my partner runs. Incredibly sad
Xiaozheng Lin... killed 2 women in Melbourne in 24 hours. He was convicted to 15 years, 9 year non parole. With time served he could be out in 7 years. They made a DEAL with him. Make it make sense!
Just signed the petition.. this is absolutely heartbreaking. I will never understand judges like this. This family has been through enough, I can’t even imagine… Justice for Celeste and her family.
Lets hope he unalives in prison...
The justice system Inside the prison gives a better outcome.
As a mother of 4 little girls I am so terrified of what's to come as they grow older. My oldest is almost a teenager. Hearing this mother broke my heart. This world can be so devastating. This young lady was so beautiful and would have done something great in life. Some people are monsters why couldn't he ask for help he knew what was in his head.
Social media has made it easier for stalkers to stalk and harass their victims and it isn’t just an aspect of social media. I think officers who shrug off reports of harassment like this should be reprimanded make it clear that you don’t shrug off victims.
Poor Ashley Milden can't indulge her narcissism on social media anymore, boo hoo hoo.
There is absolutely NO reason why he is not in prison for life. So upsetting.
I'm listening from melbourne, Australia. Thank you for covering this for Celeste. We need to do better.
I signed Celeste’s petition. I watch a lot of true crime but this case is just heartbreaking. I’m a mom of a wonderful young adult daughter.. my deepest condolences to her mom and family 💔❤️🩹I pray that all of their work brings about change and some sense of peace
Glad to see an Australian case again! I'm from Melbourne and i remember this case so well, absolutely devastating 😔 our justice system continues to be a disgrace
thank you so much for covering an Australian case, this one happened right where I live, but there are thousands more of DV murders and random murders of women every year, and the government doesn't take it seriously. Even when the murderers have already been arrested for DV and the victims had already tried to ask for help.
Thank you also for brining the petition to light and the call to email our government, I wasn't aware of either option before this video!!
another shocking Australian case was the murder of Mackenzie Anderson, at 21 years old. She had a restraining order against her ex partner and even though she called the police when he broke into her home, he was able to murder her in front of her three year old. SO horrific.
Our legal system is a joke. My
Psychologist was murdered by her husband and Victoria Police referred to her as a ‘serial pest’ when she would call them scared when her ex kept breaking the Protection Order. Protection Orders here don’t mean anything.
My heart goes out to this family.
Big hugs from one morning mama to another
Women can’t do literally anything. Can’t just simply exist. Can’t ignore weirdos. Can’t entertain the weirdos either. Every choice has danger and risk. I’m so tired
You'd feel a lot better if you quit watching this crap.
I’m currently being harassed, I don’t want to use the term stalked because it scares me, by my next door neighbour. I went to the police after I started receiving letters and consistent visits and they made me feel as if I was wasting time! Australia’s action towards women’s safety is appalling, Celeste deserved better we all deserve better.
Hi from the UK.
I was just listening to an older Mile Higher about Missy Bevers, so very surprised to see a new vid waiting!
Truly devastating and awful. It is scary to know that if someone wants you dead there is nothing you can do.
the resemblance to Bryan Kohberger is crazy….
Yes
@@marilynnhudson2849I thought that too! However, I’m convinced Bryan has been framed.
Thank you for sharing such a devastating case about such an incredible woman. She’s from the same city as a lot of my friends so we have mutual friends and they continue to celebrate Celeste constantly. Everyone knows how beautiful, how intelligent and how great an impact she has had on the world. The police absolutely failed her and did nowhere near enough to protect her. All of my love goes out to Aggie and her family and friends - I don’t know how they are able to keep going 💛
That 2 bit Temu version of John Oliver should have been punished for breaching the no contact order. There needs to be a range of punishments for doing that that match the severity of his behavior, including jail time. Blood is on the hands of the court and blood is on the hands of the police.
Thanks for always standing up for those that can no longer stand on their own… you’re definitely my kind of people! ♥️ thanks for all of the awareness you spread
I've been watching u for so many years and absolutely love how you've always been into charity and raising funds for the families. And today seeing u with ur husband being all happy and talking about ur own foundation makes me so happy. Gud luck with this initiative and I hope u continue to grow and help those in need.
It's mindblowing that the judge, as a woman, doesn't understand the severity of the situation.
This is still my comfort RUclips channel till this day . Very sad case and may this beautiful soul rest in peace 😢
Guys, and girls, no means no. No is not an invitation. I can’t believe the length some individuals will go. Its psychotic.
The fact that not even in her daughters death, momma couldn’t even read her thoughts. These last thoughts should be absolutely unfiltered. That’s the LEAST that should be allowed.
Ughhhh 😢 the mom recalling that night just broke my heart….you feel and hear the pain
Unbelievable. My anxiety just soared. My love goes out to the family. Thank you for taking the time to say that Kendall 33:13 ❤️
How horrible! Not only the crime, but also the " punishment "....Celeste and her family deserve so much better. RIP, sweet girl.
The stalkers need to wear ankle bracelets and the victim have their every single movement on their phone. Tit for tat.
1000%
Prey must become predator.
It’s a shame sentencing isn’t done more like in America! Here in the UK it’s not unusual for ‘life’ to mean 20-25 years. It needs to change for people like this!
Technically “life” in Australia is 20 years. However, many judges now place a higher number of years of sentencing before allowing parole
Thank you for covering this story and highlighting issues in the justice system.
Unfortunately in Victoria maximum penalty for Murder is only 25 years.
