I like how Mike woke up one day and was like "I'm going to make at least 1 to 2 quality videos every week for the next two plus years" and has done so.
Now the channel's up and running I'd like Mike to hire some research and production help so he can sit back and smoke cigars or whatever more often. And to take regular holidays! Love you Mike ;)

@Melissa831 Totally agree with you. They both have very different delivery styles, but are masters of speech. Also a new (to me) voice I recently discovered in this genre; Noor Jasmine with her tin foil hat. Once again, very different delivery style but always enjoyable.
Incredible how she lied about things that could have easily been explained. She could have said ya she had driven his car a few times. Wouldn't be that weird for a wife to drive husband car. The best was lying about the contacts while leaving 2 boxes were the police searched.
Rewatching this, I think it’s worth noting, someone from a “good neighborhood” left an expensive car with keys and gun in a “bad neighborhood” and all that happened to it was evidence was preserved.
People from so called good neighborhoods blow my mind. They really thought leaving a mustang like car at best with a gun in it was so tempting that it would've been stolen and later some "thugs" would've been blamed for it😂 that's not how the hood works you've been lied to by the media.
@warren lynch 1st , i was obviously being sarcastic in my first comment but then you asked this question so i just thought that you simply didn't get my sarcasm. 2nd, there was seriously no need to all that rude reply since i really thought that this reply was for me not for the original comment but well, i'm used to everything now on the comment section.
And he just stood there as each pitch was thrown. What did he do to disprove any of the allegations? He just bitched that she was innocent because I believe her. Wow and I’ve got a bridge to sell you real cheap.
To be fair, we didn’t see the whole trial. I imagine at one point he pulled out a pocket watch on a chain and chanted while swinging it, “you will become very sleepy”
She’s guilty lol , she was at the Walmart asking where the pay phone was. Her print was on the driver side door. She’s seen with the gun. Her alibi turned out to be a lie (computer wasn’t used that day at all), she was jealous about the affair
It was the lie about the contacts for me and getting busted by Dateline about it, too 😂 the life insurance policies were old so that wasn’t proof enough for me.
Not many people actually tell others when they find their partner having an affair (emotional affair is still an affair, shit talking your partner to your ap is worse). I would in my head dream about murdering them, but i would take my time planning how to ruin their life while leaving them instead. Lawyer will let you know if your plans will backfire and consequences if its not a viable option for you to win. If you shut up, prep and research while waiting for everything to be ready, and act like their is nothing affecting you, you can ghost your soon to be ex successfully
@@heatheraemathews You know, towards the end of the Dateline episode, the Contacts were the cherry on top for me also. I had missed the very beginning and by the time they arrested her the first time, I thought, WTH? Why are they arresting her? But I have to say, when she and the father in law were waiting to pick up the car and he broke down crying, the wife(killer)did nothing to comfort him, not reach out to even touch his shoulder and altho at that point I wasn't thinking it was her, because I hadn't quite tuned in to my sixth sense yet(which is usually on point btw)but when I saw that, my senses kicked in and I thought 'ok, something ain't right, who doesn't at least, touch a loved ones shoulder, especially when it's an older dad breaking down about his son and it's only been 4 days and also, she's not even upset?' And all she can say is something about getting hubby's cell phone back! By the end, my instinct was right! And she really convinced herself(and daughters)that she's innocent! Like most narcissists! She's just cold-blooded!
It's hard to argue against her attorney's airtight arguments though. I don't exactly remember what they were, other than "imagine what an innocent person would be going through right now...in theory"
I had to laugh out loud at her own defense attorney listing out clear motive after motive after motive and then saying “there was absolutely no motive!”

I just know that if I ever take out life insurance, no one is going to hear a word about it. And the beneficiary sure as hell isn’t going to be an adult.
I feel your pain. I was afflicted with terrible migraines for years. I was on a cocktail of Excedrin Migraine, Fiorocet and coffee. Finally had tests done, including 3 spinal taps, and was determined to have Pseudo Tumor Cerebri. Had a VP Shunt put in my brain 10 years ago and have had NO migraines ever since.
@@jacquelinea.guerra4066 I have actually had migraines that were so bad, Jacqueline, that it literally made my head move, almost pulsing with the headache itself, and also made me nauseous!
The wife looks considerably more heavy-set in that Walmart video than the person seen on the CCTV... makes me wonder if she’s taking the fall for one of her kids.
I agree. Maybe I'm bad at sizing up photos, but the person in the CCTV looked considerably more slender than the wife, I don't know see how anyone would have thought they were the same person. Maybe I'm missing something? I can see the mom taking the blame for the kid, but why would the police look at that and immediately think it was the mom?
@@thelogicaldanger The person in the walmart CCTV and running from the cab matches her body type. My guess is that the other CCT is lower quality and the image is slightly skewed on a barely discernable video as it is.
I really really love how you tell the stories. Its interesting, easy to understand and lets face it, I love the fact that it has no ''true crime dark vibe'' to it, you know.. halloween, spooky music all the time and told under the spotlight of a flashlight almost.. I love the simple, story telling vibe of this channel. It's great ! Thank you for that.
Some updates-Leslie's own brother testified against her. Yes, the taxicab driver was questioned and was not sure but said the woman, heavy-set, acted oddly. The 3 people in Bakersfield that took video footage and had her on their home surveillance camera that documented the woman got out of the cab, went into a now torn down Starbucks and came out in different clothes also testified. The taxicab driver dropped her off close to her home but she did not go directly home but into the Starbucks into the restroom there where she changed her clothes and then headed back home. Her oldest daughter-the one who claimed her mother was at home working that day and was considered a 'hostile witness' also had a bit of a change of heart in the direction against her mother when testifying. She stated in her testimony that she refused to look at any of the surveillance videos when asked to view them as 'it did not matter' and since others said it was her mother, could not 'handle' viewing them and as the eldest daughter, did not want her sisters viewing them either which is why none of the daughters viewed them initially, The trial depicted above was a 2nd trial as the first trial was declared a mistrial due to prosecutor 'conflict of interest. Leslie Chance took out four life insurance policies-not one-on her husband a few weeks before the murder and tried to claim on all four totaling 1/2 million not too long after his death. She also gained more education and made more money than her husband and considered him 'lazy' and unambitious since he stayed at the same company doing the same kind of work throughout their marriage. She had been on administrative leave since August 2016 not just because of this but there were some other issues of concern. The elementary school would not discuss them as they don't discuss personnel or disciplinary matters. After the verdict, they moved quite quickly to terminate her. After Todd's death, it was clear to everyone she did not give a shit that he was dead, had no impact on her at all and she never shed a single tear over it, Also odd that during all the time she was on leave of address from her employment, she did not make any effort to find other work.
Well the verdict makes a whole hell of a lot more sense now reading all of this. I felt like I was missing something(s) the way the story unfolded in the video. But taking all of that info into consideration.. yikes.
@@NyanyiC I think if there were caps on coverage & the person being covered was video tapped agreeing to sign for the insurance coverage, then many of these high-end & multiple policies wouldn't exist. Murdering people for financial gain is extremely evil. Sad world we're living in.
You gotta love and appreciate the fact that, That Chapter ALWAYS has the nicest comment section, we all just come to see our boy Mike and enjoy his story telling 😊 thanks for helping us find something positive in a world (and internet) that can sometimes be filled with negativity!
I honestly thought the same thing!! this is the first channel I've notice all positive comments. it was kind of refreshing. Everyone is usually so full of hate and looks for any reason to bash anything and everyone
@@kaymarie9712 Absolutely!! Whenever I scroll through the comments (as we all do) I never see anything hateful or negative.. even when someone posts their own opinion on the case, the responses are usually always positive or in good taste not defensive and rude. It really is nice to see that 😊
@@Amber-YAHUAHdaughter777 I'm glad we can all see that, I'm sure Mike appreciates too. The That Chapter Crew has to stick together and just keep enjoying these videos!
17:21 - 17:38 genuinely sounds like me when I’ve had loads of red wine but I’m trying to act like I’m sober and know what I’m talking about to the group
I don’t mean to sound cruel, but was the wife’s weight fluctuating a lot? She looks a different size in each picture, making the CCT footage confusing.
@@silvinasi That makes sense. Also taking into consideration what was said by her own lawyer about her being upset over photos taken of her with her belly hanging over that she was sensitive about. He basically painted her out to be an insecure, jealous woman who would’ve done this... because he’s just that great a defense attorney. 😒
The dramatic removal of the glasses David Caruso style while talking about the CSI experience did it for me. I literally laughed out loud at that one. Great job Mike! Always one to entertain.
Sometimes I think defense attorneys purposely throw the case as discretely as possible... because they know the truth yet dont stand for it... ye know that if they give their defendant up they will be barred
Is it just me or Does anyone else Drop what they’re doing and throw Mike’s new video from my phone or tablet up to the big screen TV to watch it while putting everything else on pause knowing it’s always going to be A great video
@@kimberlyharris2109 At first when the daughter was identifying the person in the videos I thought she was saying it was her and not her mom. I wonder though, if they ever were able to ask the cab driver, who would have seen her in person if s/he remembered the passenger.
Guy had been reading a lot on wikipedia on his computer in his mom's basement and subscribed to "catch a killer" crime solving game so he was definitely competent 🤣
Hahahaha right? They presented all this nonsense like"evidence" pshh, viable motives of insurance, jealousy..it didn't make any sense to me. I mean come on! Hahaha
The defence lawyer has cured my insomnia. When he says ‘I’m numb”, WE ALL ARE AFTER LISTENING TO YOU. Mike’s “white man over-bite” insurance dance, gets me going for my day!
@@thecatatemyhomework no that's the way it should be spelled across the world... the correct way. Like theres a u in colour and neighbour, defence is spelled with a c like it always was in the origin of the English and American languages xD

Is anyone else watching this in the dark whilst eating dinner and finding yourself constantly in moments of complete darkness waiting for the screen to come back to life so you can find your food on the plate ?
@@danielleseres1053 It was a pleasant surprise. Always love his little jokes and humor. First time I've seen that though and I've been watching for years lol
Hey friends! Our friend Mike is officially a TV star! I was watching "Crime Scene - The Vanishing At The Cecil Hotel" on Netflix and who did I see on my television screen? I checked tree times and lo and behold, it was Mike. Good for you!
It's a really exaggerated case for a simple incident of a mentally ill girl accidentally dying and a bunch of whackos like the ghost hunters fraud try and insert goofy supernatural crap, but that's still cool Mike got some Netflix revenue and cameo haha
Holy cow. I'm from there. I just moved back right before the pandemic. Thanks for covering a story on such a non-existent city. 😅 Always enjoy all of your videos.
Janae's body type seems to have gone back and forth a bit, so I would need to see a picture of her full body at the time of the murder to be sure if that was her in the CCTV footage or not. The woman in the footage looked tall and not exactly skinny, but definitely not heavy, while Janae mostly looks short and a tad heavy. But, then again, if not her - then who?
Literally no chance thats some random woman just would go kill some random Guy like that and not get cought, 100% she did it, women have tried to kill for less, heck one woman tried to stabb her husband for cheating,when she found photos of s younger attractive woman..... And it happend to be HERSELF when she was younger. 🤷
She's nearly 6 ft tall. She was heavy at the time but after she collected the insurance she had lap band surgery with the blood money she received from murdering her hubby. Dateline did a really in-depth episode about the murder. It was 100% Janea who killed her husband! BTW The Dateline episode is called, Point Blank, season 29 episode 14.
The woman/person (is it a female for sure?) on CCTV seems too slim to have been Leslie; bariatric surgery using life insurance money was long after the murder, not before it. I think she was plus sized when he died, or at least not thin.
i was kinda surprissed, normally it is a 100% certain that someone is guilty. i mean i know most effidence says so ( sorry if not prenounced right, english not my first language ).
Of course the daughters don't believe their mother did it, they can't accept the truth. Denial is always the first human instinct to protect the psyche in something so profound.
Lol was it the judge in the Ted Bundy trial that said "a defendant that uses themselves for an attorney has a fool for a client"? Or something along those lines? But oh yea, you can always defend yourself in court.
@@rolfdenver if the jury saw everything, all the evidence we did, which he surely showed them, then yea it was all on the jury after that. To me, it was not proven beyond a reasonable doubt. And after 8 days of deliberation they clearly had some problems coming to a guilty verdict.
no no , they think she wasnt on the computer ,same thinking it is her on that grainy shit video as the think it was her in the cab as they think she knowed about the message between hubby and old flame. i probably forgot like 20 they think , they had no prof it was that simple ,im from Sweden and the jury system scares me (we don't have it in Sweden), they put innocent in jail and let lose OJ ( the guilty ones) ( or Casey Anthony) it doesn't bother me so much they let OJ or Casey out more they put innocents in , better to let 100 guilty lose then put 1 innocent in jail ( you could be that innocent one)
@@tamo_amo so you say no people has 4 life insurance policies ? , if they do they all are killer or are in the process of planing a murder or what is 4 life insurance policies prof of ?
@@crisun Well, when you give the police multiple alibis that your defense is built on in proving your innocence in a murder and they prove you lied about essentially all of it... Also, including the fact the killer did the same thing the CSI convention they went to spoke about... Yeah there's no way it was her...
@@crisun you’re not very bright are you? Her alibi was that she was on the computer all morning and her daughter saw her, but it was then proven the computer was unused, so clearly showing her alibi was bullshit. That was a pretty important piece of evidence.
Yeah I thought the same thing! Like he was asked to give a speech at a funeral for someone he didn't know. Should have just been like "my client has said repeatedly that she has not done this. So I believe her? Doesn't matter. All that matters is that YOU believe her"
I thought exactly the same thing!!! In the Los Vegas photo, one daughter seemed the right height, body type, and age of the person in the video. The gait of the person in the video was younger than someone in their 50s, I thought.
"There's no motive..." ok, but he's dead and it really looks like she did it ...."But, there's no motive" ok, but, there kind of is ..."NO! There's just no motive so she couldn't have done it!!!"
I hope she didn't pay that defense lawyer. Holy crap he is terrible at his presentation of evidence..."she is innocent, I'm sure of it." That's all he said.
"I dont understand this whole case"... well that is a problem dude... because are you not the defence lawyer? Lmao. She lied... "do you have contact lenses?"... "no"... "yes you do... two boxes". Lmao. Doesn't bode well. Smh.
One of my Tort law professors was a former defense attorney and she said she required her clients to honestly tell her "the good, the bad, and the ugly". Such as telling the attorney before court she had contacts.
I’m not saying she is innocent but that case was just awful from both sides. The prosecution had no evidence and that defence attorney made me cringe so bad. The judge should have just walked out lol
That's probably the worst thing about any justice system. When both sides don't have a good showing and the truth is questionable, you're leaving someone's life to chance and taking it away because the story alone is compelling, not what you can prove.
@@MrTwotimess That's exactly what I thought! I immediately imagined the whole neighborhood giving the car the side eye and simultaneous eye roll. Just because it works on CSI (I'm sure I've seen that plot element on one of the shows) doesn't mean it's gonna happen in real life.
Nah not necessarily. I used to live in a nice neighborhood that was just on the edge of town where a lot of cops didn’t go so people would dump cars n stuff Bc no one would bother them for a minute.
@@JamesChessman We were joking about it being classy you read into that too much. You can't say shit on American T.V but you can say Shite. To an American who's never heard it before it can jokingly sound like a classier way of saying shit....get it.

Peter Gianakopoulos this video is literally sponsored and it has a ad lol
Thunderf00ts bullshit 10 ads in a 10 min video. Gotta admit tho enjoy his stuff
Mike you tell each story like no other , but the life insurance dance 💃🏻 is just priceless 🤣
Except it could be longer - even 5 seconds more would increase its impact.
I'm going to need that "Life Insurance" dance number to be a recurring segment in more videos, Mike. 😂
I thought he was having an Irish seizure. It was a dance?
11:45 😁
I just know that if I ever take out life insurance, no one is going to hear a word about it. And the beneficiary sure as hell isn’t going to be an adult.
No way.
yup yup
I'm lying here with a migraine listening to this and the life insurance dance break gave me a genuine laugh. I love this channel so much lmao
Kaitlyn G, you get migraines? u should take an extra strength excedrin!
I'm lying here with a brutal migrane watching right now too. And yeah the life insurance dance break made me smile.
I feel your pain. I was afflicted with terrible migraines for years. I was on a cocktail of Excedrin Migraine, Fiorocet and coffee. Finally had tests done, including 3 spinal taps, and was determined to have Pseudo Tumor Cerebri. Had a VP Shunt put in my brain 10 years ago and have had NO migraines ever since.
@@lisablais7913 Lisa, so u get migraines too? Have you taken an extra strength excedrin yet?
@@jacquelinea.guerra4066 I have actually had migraines that were so bad, Jacqueline, that it literally made my head move, almost pulsing with the headache itself, and also made me nauseous!
The wife looks considerably more heavy-set in that Walmart video than the person seen on the CCTV... makes me wonder if she’s taking the fall for one of her kids.
I agree. Maybe I'm bad at sizing up photos, but the person in the CCTV looked considerably more slender than the wife, I don't know see how anyone would have thought they were the same person. Maybe I'm missing something? I can see the mom taking the blame for the kid, but why would the police look at that and immediately think it was the mom?
@@thelogicaldanger some cops are lazy and focus on 1 suspect and distort the evidence to fit that narrative.
14:54?
@@thelogicaldanger The person in the walmart CCTV and running from the cab matches her body type. My guess is that the other CCT is lower quality and the image is slightly skewed on a barely discernable video as it is.
My thoughts exactly...
I really really love how you tell the stories. Its interesting, easy to understand and lets face it, I love the fact that it has no ''true crime dark vibe'' to it, you know.. halloween, spooky music all the time and told under the spotlight of a flashlight almost.. I love the simple, story telling vibe of this channel. It's great ! Thank you for that.
Egggggggzactly correct. 100% 👍
All in favor of making the Life Insurance dance a regular feature, say "Tree"

Some updates-Leslie's own brother testified against her. Yes, the taxicab driver was questioned and was not sure but said the woman, heavy-set, acted oddly. The 3 people in Bakersfield that took video footage and had her on their home surveillance camera that documented the woman got out of the cab, went into a now torn down Starbucks and came out in different clothes also testified. The taxicab driver dropped her off close to her home but she did not go directly home but into the Starbucks into the restroom there where she changed her clothes and then headed back home. Her oldest daughter-the one who claimed her mother was at home working that day and was considered a 'hostile witness' also had a bit of a change of heart in the direction against her mother when testifying. She stated in her testimony that she refused to look at any of the surveillance videos when asked to view them as 'it did not matter' and since others said it was her mother, could not 'handle' viewing them and as the eldest daughter, did not want her sisters viewing them either which is why none of the daughters viewed them initially,
The trial depicted above was a 2nd trial as the first trial was declared a mistrial due to prosecutor 'conflict of interest.
Leslie Chance took out four life insurance policies-not one-on her husband a few weeks before the murder and tried to claim on all four totaling 1/2 million not too long after his death. She also gained more education and made more money than her husband and considered him 'lazy' and unambitious since he stayed at the same company doing the same kind of work throughout their marriage. She had been on administrative leave since August 2016 not just because of this but there were some other issues of concern. The elementary school would not discuss them as they don't discuss personnel or disciplinary matters. After the verdict, they moved quite quickly to terminate her.
After Todd's death, it was clear to everyone she did not give a shit that he was dead, had no impact on her at all and she never shed a single tear over it, Also odd that during all the time she was on leave of address from her employment, she did not make any effort to find other work.
Well the verdict makes a whole hell of a lot more sense now reading all of this. I felt like I was missing something(s) the way the story unfolded in the video. But taking all of that info into consideration.. yikes.
Four life insurance policies & so close to his death, now that's highly suspect & big time motive.
Thanks for sharing. Now im even more convinced
@@razztazz1982 i think we should do away with this whole life insurance thing.. Its the common thread in most of these cases
@@NyanyiC I think if there were caps on coverage & the person being covered was video tapped agreeing to sign for the insurance coverage, then many of these high-end & multiple policies wouldn't exist.
Murdering people for financial gain is extremely evil. Sad world we're living in.
You gotta love and appreciate the fact that, That Chapter ALWAYS has the nicest comment section, we all just come to see our boy Mike and enjoy his story telling 😊 thanks for helping us find something positive in a world (and internet) that can sometimes be filled with negativity!
I honestly thought the same thing!! this is the first channel I've notice all positive comments. it was kind of refreshing. Everyone is usually so full of hate and looks for any reason to bash anything and everyone
@@kaymarie9712 Absolutely!! Whenever I scroll through the comments (as we all do) I never see anything hateful or negative.. even when someone posts their own opinion on the case, the responses are usually always positive or in good taste not defensive and rude. It really is nice to see that 😊
So true !!! & agreed !!! Very refreshing 😊
@@Amber-YAHUAHdaughter777 I'm glad we can all see that, I'm sure Mike appreciates too. The That Chapter Crew has to stick together and just keep enjoying these videos!
@@les_5184 yes !! 😁😊💜
My thoughts are that I don’t wanna spend the rest of my life in prison for any reason. Rest In Peace Todd :(
That defense attorney talks like he's drugged. He didn't understand the case because he probably had no idea where he was & why he was there.
I thought the same thing. He seems completely messed up LMAO
There wasn't much to understand he described it just as it was the CCTV footage don't even look like her lol
17:21 - 17:38 genuinely sounds like me when I’ve had loads of red wine but I’m trying to act like I’m sober and know what I’m talking about to the group
Definately on something. He also had cotten mouth. Might want to lay off the edibles before court.
What do u mean? Were u there?
"she needs glasses to even see, she's blind without them." 21:01
Not wearing glasses in court...
Hey don't forget about the "two full boxes of contact lenses"!!! 😂
🙈 haha never noticed that!
Defence attorney: She had an eye transplant!
I noticed that also
Dressing up as lady justice to court
I don’t mean to sound cruel, but was the wife’s weight fluctuating a lot? She looks a different size in each picture, making the CCT footage confusing.
I thought the same thing; so much that I was beginning to think I was crazy because it seemed like 4 different women throughout the video.
If I remembre correctly from other videos on this case, she got a gastric pass operation after he died, and that is why she looks so different.
Yea wtf. Mike can you explain this please?
She was prolly taking zenecal...can flush 20% of ur body weight in weeks
@@silvinasi That makes sense. Also taking into consideration what was said by her own lawyer about her being upset over photos taken of her with her belly hanging over that she was sensitive about. He basically painted her out to be an insecure, jealous woman who would’ve done this... because he’s just that great a defense attorney. 😒
The dramatic removal of the glasses David Caruso style while talking about the CSI experience did it for me. I literally laughed out loud at that one. Great job Mike! Always one to entertain.
That defense attorney looks like he's trying to scare the jury, like he's going to get them if they don't do what he wants.
I wanted to say something about the defense attorney, but you guys have already got it covered. 😂
But he did work for the money she paid he got her daughter to retract her statement but she's guilty and he knows it
@@moni2624 good that his parents kept the insurance cash from her. this cheap-ass lawyer has certainly compounded her situation
His client's victim is more alive than his defense.
Sometimes I think defense attorneys purposely throw the case as discretely as possible... because they know the truth yet dont stand for it... ye know that if they give their defendant up they will be barred
@@blakewilliams5344 That's not what happened here.
I fucking love this channel. The frequent uploads. Good humor without being disrespectful. The best true crime channel imo
Totally agree!!

Jim Can't Swim is better but this is good too.

Mike narration of these crime stories is so good. I really enjoy the way you walk us through the stories and the sense of humor you give us. Bravo!
Is it just me or Does anyone else Drop what they’re doing and throw Mike’s new video from my phone or tablet up to the big screen TV to watch it while putting everything else on pause knowing it’s always going to be A great video
Yep!!😄
Was watching another video when a prompt for this video appeared at the top ... immediatly click over to Mike cause NO other video is better ....
Yes!
Every time, kettle goes cold, cat goes unfed, dinner burns. After mike, I face the music...but not a minute before,

If the wife did not kill him, then who the hell went through this elaborate murder to be dropped off by a taxi near her home?

Her daughter lol
@@kimberlyharris2109 At first when the daughter was identifying the person in the videos I thought she was saying it was her and not her mom. I wonder though, if they ever were able to ask the cab driver, who would have seen her in person if s/he remembered the passenger.
Maybe the daughter?....Naw it was Principal Chance!
@@rolandm9750 same
She's blind without her glasses!
*Sits in court without them
LOL I didn't even notice that, well played friend.
She had contacts that she claims she never had!
masks fog up the glasses so likely its more comfortable to just keep them off
Lmao oh shit I didnt notice that!
I heard on dateline that she wasn’t allowed to wear them.
The whole leaving the car in a bad part of town was literally a plotline that happened in Desperate Housewives to cover up a murder.
When you’ve no money for a defence attorney and your friend says “yeah I be knowing all the laws, I gotchu”
Guy had been reading a lot on wikipedia on his computer in his mom's basement and subscribed to "catch a killer" crime solving game so he was definitely competent 🤣
😅😅
💀😭😭🤭
That defense attorney basically knew she lost, his just talking out of his ass.
I love when they do that.
Yeah he’s not making any sense
I think it was the attorney who was lost
Hahahaha right?
They presented all this nonsense like"evidence" pshh, viable motives of insurance, jealousy..it didn't make any sense to me. I mean come on!
Hahaha
yeah, he didn't bring up her getting out of that cab. must have forgotten bout that
Lawyer: "There was no believable motive"
Also lawyer: *lists like 4 very believable motives that were brought up*
Lawyer: "Yeah she's innocent"
They have to pretend they did something and believed the client, to justify taking their money.
he was reciting them in away to make it sound like silly reasons.
I know the pictures especially but damn it was 4 months ago
Tough job of a defense attorney knowing full-well that their client is guilty.
His speech pattern is quite irritating
Her lawyer: "The case hinges on whether she knew about the affair, and she swears she didn't, so she's clearly innocent!"
well to be fair nobody found a text from her saying "i found out about the affair and now i'm going to kill you" so impossible to know /s
Please do the life insurance song every time there’s a case with life insurance. It made my day and gave me much happiness 😂
I was thinking this 😂
the defense attorney was like "there's no motive" ~proceeds citing all motives~
Yes, he did, didn't he! He also ended he speech by hanging his head down, as if he didn't believe a word he said either!
He said the motives were ridiculous though, and why would he lie? Oh wait.
I caught that lol
🤣🤣
Not a very good attorney.
I literally watched the “life insurance” part a few times before continuing 😂 👌🏻
Me too
OMG I did too! How frigging funny was that? And very unexpected!! Lmfao
I did too 😂😂😂😂
I did a little dance to it ^^
@@vinayakmukherjee8917 😂
The defence lawyer has cured my insomnia. When he says ‘I’m numb”, WE ALL ARE AFTER LISTENING TO YOU. Mike’s “white man over-bite” insurance dance, gets me going for my day!
The prosecution: provides actual facts and evidence.
The defence: I... mean... she might.... not... be guilty.... I dunno
lmao
Is that the way to spell "defense" in GB?
@@thecatatemyhomework no that's the way it should be spelled across the world... the correct way. Like theres a u in colour and neighbour, defence is spelled with a c like it always was in the origin of the English and American languages xD
I lol'd out loud at that 😄
THE LIFE INSURANCE BIT KILLED ME
😂 😂 😂
I laughed so hard ha
Always irritates me when you get CCTV from multi-million pound shopping centres, and I couldn't swear if it shows my Mum or Dad even.
It’s to make the cases more interesting…you know add some spiceew
The taxi driver should have been contacted, and thorough search of their house might also revealed some DNA evidence, like changed cloths, shoes etc
Taxi driver was tracked down, contacted, and i think testified.

@@ispartacus1337 😂
Well, welcome to space comrade.

You do realise that the defence have to try and prove them not guilty. Whether they believe them or not they have a job to do

I'm totally down for the Disco Mike Dance Party.
Is anyone else watching this in the dark whilst eating dinner and finding yourself constantly in moments of complete darkness waiting for the screen to come back to life so you can find your food on the plate ?
That life insurance dance was epic. We need a full length version. The split second it was on the screen was too short.
Agreed. I changed the speed of playback to 25% for added epic-ness.
I spat my noodles out. I was not expecting it lol
@@danielleseres1053 It was a pleasant surprise. Always love his little jokes and humor. First time I've seen that though and I've been watching for years lol
Hey friends! Our friend Mike is officially a TV star! I was watching "Crime Scene - The Vanishing At The Cecil Hotel" on Netflix and who did I see on my television screen? I checked tree times and lo and behold, it was Mike. Good for you!
I noticed that too. 😊
I need to watch that
I just watched that other day too. Good show.
It's a really exaggerated case for a simple incident of a mentally ill girl accidentally dying and a bunch of whackos like the ghost hunters fraud try and insert goofy supernatural crap, but that's still cool Mike got some Netflix revenue and cameo haha
are you sure it was only tree times? not tirty tree? fess up.
The defense lawyer probably should have written down what he was going to say beforehand 🤦♂️
🤣
Lol
He smoked a fat one and winged it. I bet it sounded perfect in his own ears.
Do you really think he can read?
Holy cow. I'm from there. I just moved back right before the pandemic. Thanks for covering a story on such a non-existent city. 😅 Always enjoy all of your videos.
Not gonna lie, we literally lost our minds when Mike broke out the Life Insurance dance. There were ACTUAL tears.
No you didn’t stop lying
You literally lost your minds
Huh
@@stacybstacyb We still have not found our minds.
No you didn't...
That is the best part! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Hope things get better for you. I have been there, it is tough.
That's terrible. 😔 I hope it gets better for you. 🤎
lol 😂
wtf
@@cw4608 Oh, thank you so much for your kind words! I was half joking, but I guess it's hard to see from a text.
I just rewatched the "Life Insurance" dance around 8 times... Might watch it again. Rock on, Mike.
Janae's body type seems to have gone back and forth a bit, so I would need to see a picture of her full body at the time of the murder to be sure if that was her in the CCTV footage or not. The woman in the footage looked tall and not exactly skinny, but definitely not heavy, while Janae mostly looks short and a tad heavy. But, then again, if not her - then who?
Literally no chance thats some random woman just would go kill some random Guy like that and not get cought, 100% she did it, women have tried to kill for less, heck one woman tried to stabb her husband for cheating,when she found photos of s younger attractive woman..... And it happend to be HERSELF when she was younger. 🤷
She's nearly 6 ft tall. She was heavy at the time but after she collected the insurance she had lap band surgery with the blood money she received from murdering her hubby. Dateline did a really in-depth episode about the murder. It was 100% Janea who killed her husband!
BTW The Dateline episode is called,
Point Blank, season 29 episode 14.
The woman/person (is it a female for sure?) on CCTV seems too slim to have been Leslie; bariatric surgery using life insurance money was long after the murder, not before it. I think she was plus sized when he died, or at least not thin.
ROFL. 😂 The life insurance disco should be trademarked.
Best part of the whole video. Shake it Mikey shake it
Same
What's the song name
That Defense Attorney has *Really* got to brush up on his 'Jedi Mind Control' during his closing argument.

anyone else think that life insurance bit was an ad? 😂 picked up my phone to skip and saw Mike dancing his head off lol
11:45 i will never grow tired of your 'life insurance' song and dance.
"I love ya...Mike out." wink. That was so cute. I don't remember him saying "Love ya," before! We love ya, too Mike! ; )
It's a thirst trap :P

@@Cyanapanasati yeah, I thought it was cute. 😉
At the end, her joke of a defense lawyer actually convinced me that she had many motives to do this.
B-b-but the life insurance motive was ridiculous he said. Must be true.
Right 😂 why defend your client after they are found guilty and also claim you KNOW she is innocent. What a dumbass attorney
i was kinda surprissed, normally it is a 100% certain that someone is guilty. i mean i know most effidence says so ( sorry if not prenounced right, english not my first language ).
I thought the same thing! He kept bringing up what would be the very definition of motive!
@@JohnFKennedy420 Huh? Of course they continue defending them. They have appeals. The trial isn't the final step.
The temporary lawyer in My cousin Vinny executed his defense more clearly than that guy. I think he’s going through some stuff 😬
That good dopamine fix at the life insurance dance 😂
The dramatic pause before the life insurance dance literally put the biggest smile on my face lol
The extreme change in body type waS really confusing. I wish that would have been brought up more.
I just saw someone els reply under a similar comment that they read she had gastroplasty after he died which is why she looks so much thinner .
@@kloee7254 but even the CCTV seemed much thinner than the wife in the beginning of the video!? Right?
I bet she got her stomach stapled
@@renrut_7389 definitely agree 🧐
Jose Baez That’s possible, or the stress caused her to drop weight.
Of course the daughters don't believe their mother did it, they can't accept the truth. Denial is always the first human instinct to protect the psyche in something so profound.

@@rolfdenver if the jury saw everything, all the evidence we did, which he surely showed them, then yea it was all on the jury after that. To me, it was not proven beyond a reasonable doubt. And after 8 days of deliberation they clearly had some problems coming to a guilty verdict.

I no he was fucking shit 🤣
Look up the defence attorney in My Cousin Vinnie
"ramble ramble uh ramble photos de uh picted ramble ramble mumble"
One of the things that incriminated her was that it was proven that she didn’t use the computer that morning.
no no , they think she wasnt on the computer ,same thinking it is her on that grainy shit video as the think it was her in the cab as they think she knowed about the message between hubby and old flame.
i probably forgot like 20 they think , they had no prof it was that simple ,im from Sweden and the jury system scares me (we don't have it in Sweden), they put innocent in jail and let lose OJ ( the guilty ones) ( or Casey Anthony) it doesn't bother me so much they let OJ or Casey out more they put innocents in , better to let 100 guilty lose then put 1 innocent in jail ( you could be that innocent one)
@@crisun yeah and the four life insurance policies aren’t any sort of proof nope, just normal shit as usual, and all the Vegas stuff too
@@tamo_amo so you say no people has 4 life insurance policies ? , if they do they all are killer or are in the process of planing a murder or what is 4 life insurance policies prof of ?
@@crisun Well, when you give the police multiple alibis that your defense is built on in proving your innocence in a murder and they prove you lied about essentially all of it... Also, including the fact the killer did the same thing the CSI convention they went to spoke about... Yeah there's no way it was her...
@@crisun you’re not very bright are you? Her alibi was that she was on the computer all morning and her daughter saw her, but it was then proven the computer was unused, so clearly showing her alibi was bullshit. That was a pretty important piece of evidence.
The CSI Experience in Vegas is super cool. I took my daughter there when she was about 14 and we had a blast!
god Janae's lawyer just seems like he only started coming up with his defense the night before the trial lmao
My man went for the "TV show lawyer" strategy with about a 2/10 charisma stat
studied law at: Derek Zoolander Center For Children Who Can't Read Good And Wanna Learn To Do Other Stuff Good Too
Yeah I thought the same thing! Like he was asked to give a speech at a funeral for someone he didn't know. Should have just been like "my client has said repeatedly that she has not done this. So I believe her? Doesn't matter. All that matters is that YOU believe her"
He literally seems to give 0 fucks about the whole thing.
the lesson from this one is don't get a lawyer who looks like he's lying while defending you
More like, the lesson here is, GET A DAMN DIVORCE!
Dont know how you could learn that lesson without actually committing a crime
I thought exactly the same thing!!! In the Los Vegas photo, one daughter seemed the right height, body type, and age of the person in the video. The gait of the person in the video was younger than someone in their 50s, I thought.

Did they scrape him off of Skid Row or something? What a horrible lawyer
One of my Tort law professors was a former defense attorney and she said she required her clients to honestly tell her "the good, the bad, and the ugly". Such as telling the attorney before court she had contacts.
She cannot see without glasses.
Comes to court without glasses. I-
@@oevilone my dad always told me your lawyer and your doctor are the only 2 people you never lie to
That lied is probably what lost her the trial.
TBH
The rest of the evidence was a little iffy.
I’m not saying she is innocent but that case was just awful from both sides. The prosecution had no evidence and that defence attorney made me cringe so bad. The judge should have just walked out lol
I dont know who looked creepier, the defense attorney or the prosecutor with the dark hair and glasses.
They both sound so boring I had to skip 10 a few times
That's probably the worst thing about any justice system. When both sides don't have a good showing and the truth is questionable, you're leaving someone's life to chance and taking it away because the story alone is compelling, not what you can prove.
The judge: "all yall cringe.. I can't"
prosecution : "it was probably her....maybe, but we didn't think so the first time"
defense: "she is innocent I tell you innocent!"
Man, that insurance bit was brilliant :') Thanks for the videos, always fascinating
Defence attorney speaking to the Press at the end saying that there is no motive, then proceeds to name three possible motives!! :)

@@MrTwotimess That's exactly what I thought! I immediately imagined the whole neighborhood giving the car the side eye and simultaneous eye roll. Just because it works on CSI (I'm sure I've seen that plot element on one of the shows) doesn't mean it's gonna happen in real life.
