Fake Royalty, Real Killer | The Case of Count Albrecht Muth
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- Viola Drath was married to the much younger Albrecht Muth, living in Georgetown. However, who really was Albrecht 'Count Albi' Muth? A secret agent? UN diplomat? Iraqi Special Forces Commander? Or a simple German con-man, who would do anything to get his hands on Viola Drath's money?

Thing of it is, if he weren't so whack, he could have *had* everything he wanted. All he had to do was be a decent person and keep an elderly lady company and do some tasks for her, and in return he could have had options and help from the rich and powerful, and eventually even some of her estate no doubt.
It's the "decent person" part that he got hung up with...
Maybe I misheard Mike, but weren't they married for twenty-some years? If he'd married her later (closer to her natural expiry), he could've kept the "decent person" charade going long enough for her not to want to divorce him.
He might have been unique in his eccentric affectations & characters he imagined for himself, but unfortunately, he's far from unique in getting hung up on the 'decent person' part.
I don’t know how an intelligent person like her could listen to his stupid stories and be around a phony for so long. I can’t stomach people like that for an hour.
Ahhhhh, yes……the “decent person” aspect. That seems to be an issue with so many. Love your comment!!!!
@@HayleysComet3 when women are lonely they put up with a lot of BS
'Nothing stands in the way of love... Not even walkers!"
I actually laughed. Good job.
Lol, I’m always laughing but agreed that joke was another laugh out loud one!
That comment made me howl. lmao.
🤭
😅
Mike never disappoints!
“He would walk around in these army outfits”
“Did you think he was in the military?”
“No.” No hesitation 😂
That neighbor was great!
Typical German
I wonder if anyone ever tried to tell her about their suspicions? Maybe she suspected or actually knew herself but was so reliant on him afterall domestic violence abusers make a pattern of making the victim not trust their own minds and isolate them from all family and friends so they think that they can't manage without the abuser
So sad all round
is it just me who watches his videos and after finishing one, felt like the video ended too soon? It felt like a 5-minute video. That's how good his videos are.
Thank you!
@@ThatChapter it would definitely be absolutely amazing if you did the odd longer deeper dive video every so often or maybe as a treat the next time you surpass a certain number of subscribers or something?!! We would all definitely appreciate it I'm sure x
I have adhd so I listen to the episodes at 1.5 speed. I can fit in a whole extra episode in the time it takes to watch two episodes normally :D

It’s crazy how consistently Mike has been giving us these videos. Looking back on the old school stories from 3-4 years ago. You deserve all the success Mike 👏🏻
America never fails to provide insane murder drama🙄
Him and Dr Grande are my go to's for nefarious non fiction ( w/ a bit of dry humour)
@@burrellbikes4969 Don't forget Canada!!
Also Mike seems to up his game slightly every video.
Bring back Captain Conspiracy... tinfoil hat's are cool LoL
How sad for Viola and her family. Imagine living such a long life just to be murdered in the end over money. May she forever rest in peace knowing her wealth went to her family and not that evil man.

This has to be one of the funniest interrogations. “The judge will declare me looney” Det: “YOU’RE ALREADY LOONEY” 🤣💀
“Yes but tomorrow I’ll be certifiable” 😂😂
"Thank you for the compliment" You can't shame a shameless sociopath.
You're not the only one enjoying your jokes, Mike. Your little "Life Insurance" dance makes me laugh out loud every time.
agree
🥳🥳🥳🥳🕺🕺🕺💃💃💃💃
The comic sans kills me
OMg every time I laugh so hard and scream and be like “Yeeesss! Get that life insurance money Mike! Bitch better have your money!” 🤣🤣🤣
Every time!! 😂
If that detective said "clearly" one more time during the interrogation, I would have ended up in one of Mike's episodes...
Clearly....ya know....if you end up on ya know....oh was of Mike's episodes..... clearly, ya know....you are in big trouble. Clearly
Clearly you are upset 🤣ya know…er…clearly.
ha ha ha me toooooo clearly
Clearly!!!!!
Clearly you have some anger issues, clearly.
Wow. That that’s a story I have not heard. Crazy ass dude. Poor woman. To make it 91 years in life to be killed by a selfish man baby is doubly tragic. Ugh. Great content as always. We love you too!

No, Mike, Your timing is perfect. Your jokes are always entertaining, your way of telling the story is more than awesome, your voice is easy to listen to, and never a boring chapter. You have a 'down to earth' nature. You are the best! Know that we appreciate you. Forever a fan.
Something I've learned through watching true crime is that if someone tells you that they're a spy and regails you with stories about their secret super spy adventures, they probably aren't a spy
But isn't that exactly what a real spy would want you to think?
Yeah I don't imagine real spies are allowed to brag about their exploits! LOL

@@ThatChapter YEAAAAAA FOR MIKE!!!!!!!!
@@ThatChapter in this whole videeooo we love it!
I’ve really enjoyed Mike’s progression in front of the camera. He’s already a very likable, natural storyteller and has sped up his delivery and made it more conversational as the years have gone on. Mike would be an incredible dinner guest. My wife and I could just sit and listen for hours.
I am old enough to be his mother... and I'd like to adopt him !! Bloody nice young man. I'm in Oz' blessings to all Mike's viewers ".
Love Mike. He has a fun sense of humor but it doesn't take away from the respect he gives each case he covers.
@@wendycox9476I’m from Australia too and probably old enough to be his grandmother….lol. I am now an avid viewer of his channel and love his humour as well as his disdain for the perpetrators in his stories. You are a gem Mike 😀
Congrats on 1.5 million Mike!! Very deserved and here's to millions more
Well done Mike, you deserve this great news
How's it not higher? ?
Really deserves it 👏 x
IKR?! I also trust he's done his research. There's at least one crime podcaster I can't watch anymore because I don't trust what he says when he put out incorrect information in one of the crime stories he was relating which led some commenters to believe an innocent man could have committed the murder. It wasn't a minor detail. It only takes to double check the facts before it results in misleading the viewers.
I can only imagine how difficult it is to interrogate someone, but if that police officer said "clearly" one more time, I was going to jump out of my skin.
Yes, clearly.
Same 🤣🤣🤣
Clearly and of course.
Cops are stupid.
What did you expect?
OMG me too! It was driving me nuts... like torture repeatedly saying that. I finally had to FF.
Ok, let's play another game of "Will the murderer tell anyone about it?!"
That’s how they ALLLLL get caught!…. Big mouths.
Mike: You know I usually like to make little jokes in my video, which probably only I enjoy.
Me: Nope. I enjoy them as well.
Pretty sure I'm not the only one as well, Mike. Your little jokes help break up the darkness in your videos and that's part of the reason why I watch your videos.
This is without a doubt the most consistently enthralling and entertaining content I watch. I’ve been watching for a couple of years and I still get excited for each upload. Thanks for all the wonderful content.

*Ditto!*
😊💋🥰🥰i
Always!!
Definitely agree 💯💯❤
My grandmother lived to be 98 and there were 2 different times that she hired caregivers and hid the emotional and financial abuse from her family. In fact I became her Summer caregiver and because of that I was able to get into her financial records and caught the first woman stealing from her and treating her very poorly. Same thing happened with the next person...they stole from her also and didn't care for her well at all. My grandmother took the abuse because she was terrified of being alone! These people also physically neglected her and I'm sure she was afraid for her life. My family lived far from her and we tried to put her in a facility but she refused. She was totally mentally sound and had nothing wrong with her but age so we couldn't force her. It was a completely awful situation. It sounds like that is what this poor woman went through something even worse. I'm sure Albert threatened all sorts of terrible things in addition to beating her. She was probably terrified of him and and afraid that he would kill her if she kicked him out. Sadly, she wasn't wrong. As soon as she decided "Enough is Enough" he murdered her. He's just evil, to torture and murder an elderly person takes a special kind of psycho!
People prey on the vulnerable
Why didn't you ask your grandmother to live with you? Or why didn't another family member do the same?
Family do the same thing, my sister used our mums bank account like it was her own, hid letters, bills, etc. She didnt think as an executor of her will, i could get bank records sent to me...big shock when i confronted her!
@@JohnSmith-mk1rj Sometimes elderly people don't want to leave the comfort of their own home.
That’s horrible!
Calls 911, asks for the police to be sent to his house like he's ordering a pizza. Stone cold. Poor woman. Rest in peace Viola.
People react to crisis in different ways, it's not impossible for normal people to act that way.
He pronounced the 'th' in bathroom, his German is lacking validity too. Is there anything about this man that was real ?? Greed I guess...THAT was real.
I remember this guy. I was a bartender in Georgetown during this time. After the story broke, all the area bartenders were talking about him. He was a weirdo and he wore that German military outfit out and he would sit at bars by himself. We all knew he was weird, he gave off serial killer vibes. I think the park that he used to sleep in was called Rose Park.
I think it was Volta Park. It’s a couple blocks from the house. I know who saw him there during those days. And Yup always crossed the street when saw him.
Hats off to Viola. She imposed some sort of prenup so he wouldnt get access to her money. That was in the 80s. She mustve had some inkling he wasnt 100% trustworthy
Okay, this Al dude clearly has more than one screw loose, but I have to admit that I smiled a lot at his interrogation scenes. His answers and demeanour were somehow really funny and unique. That coffee is not coming?...😄
Especially when he was in bed. The interviewer wasn't buying anything he was saying. 😂
"Thank you for the compliment" Bizarre to see this behaviour in a murder case. And so amusing. Because nobody was fooled, it looked more like entertainment than strategy.
IKR
he made her laugh she was into it
I loved Mike’s caption about the indescribable noise he made 😂😆🤣
Viola seemed like an interesting, intelligent, and beautiful woman. It is so sad that she ended up with this creep.
I’ve never heard about Viola’s story.. thank you for telling. I’m glad he was finally found out and prosecuted.
Edited to say... it really seems like it could be a movie plot.
Based on her picture with Kissinger?
There’s a movie. I juuust randomly watched. Georgetown.
@@amberredd22 that’s awesome
@@jumpinjohnnyruss no bc she seemed artistic and pretty cool to be a woman journalist during that time. I just find that interesting
A person who started off life wealthy and had everything handed to her on a silver platter.
After becoming socially ret/
ded because everyone agreed with everything she said and did (because of the wealth), she eventually failed to notice the murderer who came for her money.
Holy shit! There is no one I’d rather hear this wackadoodle tale from than YOU! Thanks for another great episode, Mike ❤️
Take a drink every time that first cop says “clearly”.
I can’t, I’d be wasted and i gotta go back to work🤣
omg right!? it was bothering me so much 😵💫
The work that goes into these stories is impressive Mike. You should be proud of yourself.
Oh he be proud!
He isn't going to comment back
Clearly, that detective loves the word "clearly" so much that he managed to use it, like, 20 times during that interrogation. Every time he said "clearly", I pictured that "apparently" kid, Noah.
Holy crap I’m so glad I’m not the only one that noticed this.
Ya know?
Haha same! Word of this episode is clearly clearly. 😝
😂😂😂 for real! That was the worst interrogation I’ve clearly ever seen!!!
I thought he sounded like woody harrelson!
Investigators: “Who did this?”
Count: “The Libyans. I don’t know how but they found me. Marty, run for your life!”
"CLEARLY 88 MILES PER HOUR!"
He said "the audience", not "the Iranians". Let resist the temptation to blindly (or deafly) accept the laziest interpretation provided for us.

@ThatChapter You said in the beginning that your jokes only cheer you up. You and your jokes are the reason I watch you! They get me to smile and now a days I don't do that very often. You help me battle my depression and for that my friend I cannot thank you enough 🙏 ❤️ 💙 much love, a fan for life! Ally
I love that you included the victims backstory..it's kind and sensitive
So many true crimes just gloss over the victims, it really rubs me the wrong way. Such a horrible fate to be remembered by the public as a tally for some vile monster. We ought to remember for the people they were and give them the proper respect
Been watching and enjoying for yonks, but this one has resulted in my first ever comment. I actually laughed out loud at this piece of shit demanding coffee like he was in some posh place where the service was not to his liking. Some humans never fail to surprise me and Herr Alb has just joined their ranks. Thanks Mike, for shocking and entertaining me in equal measures twice a week. That's more than my ex husband ever did. 😁

Clearly, in my opinion, this is clearly the best That Chapter vid to date, clearly. Clearly can be seen the effort that went into it and clearly it was enjoyable to watch. I clearly with great anticipation await the next video.
Clearly.
thank you, i came here looking for this comment. clearly
THANK YOU! I have literally been scrolling to make sure no one else has made this comment. CLEARLY they have!!
Please be clear! What are you saying?
I was looking for this comment, that interrogator is driving me up the wall!
I prematurely made my own comment about clearly and then saw yours. CLEARLY that guy got on all our nerves.
That had to be the most nonchalant 911 call I've ever heard. 🙄
What a loony-toon. His behavior and responses during his interrogations are so odd, and creepy. He's clearly trying to find out the details so he can adjust his story accordingly. He's also so clearly full of it, I wonder how many people actually fell for his schtick... Great job, Mike - this was a new one for me. Very sad tale for Viola and her family. Raise your hand if you think Mike is AWESOME!! 🙋🏼♀🙋🏼♀🙋🏼♀🙋🏼♀🙋🏼♀
Detective "Clearly, you know"
@@arkim01 I clearly would love to have a dollar for every time he said "clearly." Ya know?
I don't know, I was kind of impressed when he insisted on knowing how she was murdered because, if they "knew" she was murdered, then they should know how.
@@arkim01 I’d be drunk if that video was a drinking game…clearly.
Nothing like a good ol bit of ASPD to liven up the drama in true crime, eh?
Mike!! There’s a story no one talks about from my home town, the Hickory Street murders in Joliet IL. The two boys who were murdered should have their story told! One of the people involved is out of jail! I’d LOVE to hear you tell the facts of the case here!! My gf and I love your channel!! Thanks for all the hard work you put into these videos Mike!! ♥️
I grew up in Berwyn IL and that is one sad story
Now I want to hear the story 🤔
Just looked it up! Crazy!!! Mike needs to cover this!
Oh man. I need to know! Mike please please look in to this 🙏❤️
I really hope he hears you barking, Big Dog. I'd love to give that a goo
The first interview the detective continuously stuttering and showing no confidence in his tone drives me absolutely mad how has this man made it so long in law enforcement he couldn’t have gotten Steve urkel to confess
I know it was weird, I wondered if he was still 'new' and given 1st chair coz he really lacked confidence or was intimidated for some reason? But to be honest, at first, I could only see the Detective to the left of screen and this Albrecht guy facing away and talking to the wall, not making eye contact, so I thought this unnerved the D on the left and he lost confidence being treated so invisibly like that. At some point I saw a foot or something on the right and realised it was another Detective🙄😂
And the ‘clearly’ 😬
All the ´you know´ drove me crazy!
I wonder if he did it on purpose to make him feel more comfortable and maybe slip up. Feed his ego
It’s a strategy.
I love the big detective that just slowly inches his chair closer and closer to Muth 😂
He must’ve been obsessing over that initial question of: “does anybody have keys to the house?” Since it took him decades to finally think of a corresponding lie.
I mean why didn't he just mention lockpicks 😂
i wish she asked why iranian's had keys in the first place
@@gristamshackleford2102 - probably the same reason the Iraqi's don't wear underwear...lol
I can't believe the level of entitlement this man has:
''that coffee is not coming?'' while he's interrogated for MURDER. he has a few screw loose.
Hey! Brigadier General here!!☕☕☕
"Are you in the business of speculation?" Dude if I was that detective I wouldve bit that bullet so hard. I'd be like, "YES! What do you think detectives are paid for? To speculate about how crimes occurred. But we dont merely only speculate, we follow the evidence & see if it lines up with our speculations. It's a process of elimination of many speculations. Until we end up with the truth. That you murdered her." Lmao
@@frankmarano1118 so you would have leave the room after him saying this, just to come back and reply your essay after 20 min thinking? That would have hit him hard😅
@@janieldanu338 😂😂

7:14 "hE'S A bit of a dick....but she liked that about him......."....lol
This case is one of those ones where it's like, the guy isn't wrong, cops and prosecutors DO railroad suspects, flub evidence, get tunnel vision to bone someone even if they didn't do it, and prosecutors are complicit since both just want to get a win, especially in high profile cases
..buuut, he DID do it hahaha, so it's using a true argument to cover your ass and try and get away with it.
It's too bad the interrogation was edited to shit. I can't follow along with anything unless it's slowed to %.50 this channel used to be comprehensive and now it seems like it's all flash editing and inside-joke comedy bits. The life insurance policy dance was fun for a while, but it's getting corny and stale. I think farming out the editing is the main problem recently.

Feel Better ❤️🩹
you weren't kidding about this shit being comical - i laughed out loud several times throughout. what an absolute lunatic! sad for viola, though. her final years must have been awful 😞
That police interrogation is pretty comical, haven't watched the entire video yet, but clearly Count Al is a smart dude. The police officers on the other hand are not, stuttering, pausing, trying to be clever and failing miserably in their attempts to manipulate someone obviously smarter than them. Count Al is clearly annoyed and losing his patience, I would be too.
One thing I've learned from Mike's videos is how inept, inarticulate and transparent those interrogators are, every now and then there is actually a clever one, but most of the time it obvious they didn't get there because they were the sharpest tool in the shed, or maybe they were, which is pretty sad.
Just before watching this video I watched the confession of Russell Williams. That detective was absolutely amazing! Got him to confess to everything. Watch it if you never have it's really worth it.
@@tabby73
I will. Thanks 👍
It could be an attempt to trick the guy. An arrogant individual like the "count" will be more likely to let something slip if he is lulled by ineptitude. This guy did not have to stay in that room...he could have walked out at any time.
I dated a guy EXACTLY like this dude. Lemme tell you - this guy is 100% sane. He is completely aware of how crazy he sounds and how bizarre he is acting. He thinks life is a game so he's playing in chaos mode. He learned early that if he's weird people don't know how to act and they let him get away with whatever he wants, boosting his ego. By the time consequences start falling on him, it's too late - he has lived the 'game god'life so long he thinks it's the best path to take for anything and everything.
I believe he was delusional. If he was thinking rationally, he wouldn't have killed his only golden goose.
@@thefreedomguyuk he did it when he found out that she had cut him out of her will.
I think you’re definitely correct!
Real life d and d
You are absolutely right. People often give a pass to eccentrics when they seem harmless. I made a similar comment above. It was funny until it wasn't. He was 100% a fake about everything. Even his weirdness was fake.
This story was portrayed in a movie called “Georgetown” starring Christoph Waltz - an amazing performance.
As an individual who lives in the DC area, I can honestly say that most of the people who are trying to gain access to that sacred “inner circle” of politics, are full of crap; always embellishing their accomplishments and trying to make the right “contacts” while stabbing their competitors in the back. Don’t get me wrong, there are a great deal of truly brilliant people in DC, but there are probably twice as many BS artists and throat-cutters right behind them.
Like the wizards at Unseen University before Mustrum Ridcully
@Sheerluck Holmes "Washington attracts psychopaths" Might this have something to do with the fact that the concentration of psychopaths is pretty high there already and has been for quite some time?
Makes sense everyone is an attorney lol from what I understand
I was literally picturing him playing this dude if there was a movie. I think it’s just because he’s so good at playing calculating, weird assholes
Also in the DMV. Can confirm.
He’d be an embarrassment to some pretty powerful and supposedly intelligent people ! So I’d imagine that they would want this case wrapped up quickly ! Before the focus slips !
Watching this guy get interviewed is like watching a teacher try and explain long division to a petulant kid.
Omg! This caused me some pain...just go on and say it.." We know you did it"
Clearly! You are correct. It was painful to listen to those two ya know? Lol. So sad that she was so desperate to not be alone that she allowed this man to continue mistreating her.
I worked in elementary school as a para educator and watching that interaction brought me back me back to those days of working one on one teaching math & reading to students who were not interested. Watching the body language of the detective on the left is priceless! As the detective leans in closer, he begins to become part of the wall. If only!
Omg. Spot on. You can tell the detective is in disbelief....
He refuses to listen to anything and it’s maddening!
Cop: "YOU'RE A MONSTER!!"
Muth: "Thank you for your compliment."
Wow. Just wow.

Excellent! Another great That Chapter story!
Hope you enjoy it!
The way you can tell these gruesome, serious, sensitive stories while squeezing in some jokes is so amazing! They're never in bad taste and never take away from your humility and respect. Kudos mate really appreciate you Mike thanks for putting yourself out there 😜 💜❤️
I recently saw a bunch of people complaining on Reddit about how his jokes are bad taste,& I’m just thinking “how is that true when all the jokes are directed at the suspects and how idiotic they think?” People complain bout everything
@@dontgotnonamebih I saw that too! Some people take absolutely everrrrrything seriously. Or they're the other type- they are the only ones who can make jokes and no one else can. Meh, Mike's videos are unique and funny. Honestly, I think it's a great change from the gross ol murderer praise that some of them do.
Have a good one
When Mike makes a mean comment on a person, its only the person who has been found guilty of the crime and frankly its usually just what we are all thinking! If others think the guilty party also deserve dignity and respect then props to them, they're more magnanimous than I am! Cos I'm firmly in the "intentional murderers are scum" camp.
All of these costumes, lies, letters and stories of proof of being an interesting fellow and he was just as boring as greed is.
God bless Mike and the mama that raised our most beloved murder storyteller!

Well, clearly😂, at 11:52, I noticed the detective leaning forward with elbows on his knees, I've heard on other interrogation shows that detectives use this to get the suspect to mirror them and Mr royalty absolutely mirrored him immediately! It was bizarre, I don't think I've ever seen it happen that fast before just thought I'd mention it, happy Easter y'all❤
There’s a similar technique in psychology where the counsellor mirrors the client’s body language. It’s supposed to create various responses, such as the client feeling more comfortable and opening up more. It’s an interesting dynamic.
He said "the audience", not "iranians". He was talking about the stage and the play and the audience killed her. You heard it here first, folks. Also this guy could have been related to the Talented Mr. Ripley.

So Mike is so incredible with his videos that this one has only been posted for 3 hours and ALREADY has 108,000 views! I'm always amazed by this. It happens on all of his videos. Everytime I get to the newest one (I'm usually pretty early, or so I think) there's already 100,000+ views if not more- into the 200k. Go Mike!!! So happy for you and your success & popularity!
Edited bc I posted that I was "pretty easy" instead of "pretty early." Don't want that info getting out into the general public, lol
😂🙃🤷🏼♀️👀
The last sentence 😂😂😂😂😂
Lol... so it was, I'm usually pretty easy? Yes funny. Good thing you caught it.
He's got a lot of loyal watchers
He releases them earlier for his patreons. Which just shows how many loyal fans pay monthly to get to see his videos just a little earlier. It’s still amazing!
at least 10 of them are from me, I always try to watch them when I'm tired, fall asleep then have to watch from beginning. He's the best true crime channel for sure
Mike is my Tuesday afternoon hero
I’ll gladly take that title haha
You have a hero for each day of the week?...
@@UCUSmusic and for different times of the day!
Congrats on your 'Götterdämmerung" pronunciation, you nailed it. I love how you dig up lesser televised/youtubed cases. I also chuckle at you jokes. You have a quite unique style and delivery, and standing out in the vast true crime sea is not easy. The success is very much deserved, i had totally missed you are now a BIG channel. Peace and love from Belgium.
Detective: “You are a monster!”
Al: “Sank you for ze complement”
😅
I'm only 3 mins in and already laughing at the most unemotional matter-of-fact 911 call I've ever heard of someone reporting their spouse deceased.
“She is…clearly dead.”
Yes..She is Dead ..(I made sure)..
Even knowing nothing about this man, that interrogation was seriously suspect. Weird is the best way to describe his answers.
Yea, he has the air of someone who believes he is absolutely bossing it!
@@-xirx- Or just a German.
@@glauvie or both
The detectives acted like they were intimidated by him.
Little Bear
Exactly!
I've never seen anyone be so cold, marriage of convenience or not. She sounded like she was a very kind and humble woman that just wanted to feel safe and was anything but safe with him.
He married a 71-year-old woman, didn't expect her to live another 20 years, and got impatient!
🤣
Mike, you're so awesome. There are very few creators as big as you who still respond and read the comments. We all seriously appreciate the care you put into your work!!!
Best part of Tuesday! Thanks Mike
Thanks for being here!
Man Michael, you have the unique gift of keeping really dark and depressing topics lighthearted. I enjoy your videos immensely. Covering stuff would take a toll on anybody. Whatever you need to cope with this rough stu
Yes he's a scumbag, but we all must admit it's absolutely amazing watching him destroy those detectives' attempts at interrogation.
They appeared to be a pair of idiots.
They seemed to think that just telling him "We know it's a murder. Not gonna tell you how we know, but we do" would somehow move the interrogation forward.
is the coffee not coming?
Clearly 🤣
@@suzzzzzzy oh god "clearly" drove me nuts listening to that investigator!!
It’s awful but I totally laughed out loud when he said “she’s CLEARLY dead,” hahahaha
Same
May I ask why?
@@SupremeCommanderBaiser for me it's just if I think things are strange or morbid for people to say it makes me laugh.
The detective in that interrogation said "clearly" nearly every sentence.
In 911 call the german guy said "clearly dead". I wonder if detective was deliberate in his word choice?
Nearly every sentence that we were shown, anyway.
Mike is one of the most kind and coolest creators out there, I messaged him a question about his music and how he recreates them and he helped! Even at 400K he got back to me. I’m so glad he’s at over 1M subscribers. There’s no one else that deserves many more but Mike. “Take care of yourselves..see you in the next video”
So, if I may, where's the music from? (the two-three themes at the beginning and the end)
@@korkunctheterrible4302 there is a link to the whole playlist in the description.
1) "Nothing stands in the way of true love. Not even walkers."
Mike, I'm not even sure how you locate all these amazing cases. This one in particular has as many twists and turns as an anaconda's asspipe and I'm left stunned by the curveballs "Count" Muth keeps throwing.
These one-liners, though, are the stuff of legend. Keep it coming, Mike--we love ya!
Anaconda's ass pipe, that's a new one. 🤭
“She provided the stage, I provided the play” is a cold line tho
I love Mike’s sense of humor. That’s why I believe this is best true crime RUclips channel out there.
I mean, even without the humor, the content is the best :D
I love him he's the male equivalent to Bailey Sarian
@@dyanlizotte9933 there’s always some dope comparing him to someone else. There is no other so give over
Agreed
Here here! So true!
I love listening to the interview with Muth. What I hear in his voice is a man who believes he is a Class well-above the Investigating Detectives. This Class system doesn't exist in the US, just Wealth. I learned this in Germany, where I was told the Doctor's kids don't play with the Plumber's kids, and later on when I was an investigator.
He feels straight out of an Agatha Christie novel
RIP to her. She didn't deserve any of this.
On a side note, this is now my favorite video you've made. The relative that fell off the elephant was kinda unexpected. 😭
Al: "Tomorrow I'll be loony"
Detective: "You'll be completely loony."
Al: "I'll be certifiable".
Me: Clearly
I always hit the like before I even watch because you never disappoint and this one is no exception. Thanks for the great content!
Me too! I know Mike has high standards. His shows are always great!
Same! Instantaneous!
I love your jokes! 😂 I mean a lot of these stories would be too hard to deal with if you didn't put that little comedic spin on them. Like, it literally does keep you sane.
Hey You - Hi Mike - I read about this bizarre story some time ago. I’m surprised Viola didn’t divorce him years ago after
being beaten so many times. Albrecht was indeed eccentric and cruel. All he wanted was her money. I hope he rots
in jail. I can’t imagine killing a frail 91 year old woman. What a cowardly act. I love you too Mike🥰
It’s sad, he caught this woman in a moment of pain and loneliness, I doubt she wanted him to be her gigolo or something like that I feel she was just a person who didn’t want to spend the rest of her years alone and more after her husband’s death with her kids all grown up living their lives away from her. Very, very sad she seemed an interesting person who aged with grace (I wish I look like that if I live to 99) and probably would have been smarter than that if it was not for her loneliness.
The idea that she was 99 and was spoiling this little prick without asking anything but company and help, that even accepted him living his life with a male partner for the sake of not being alone and forgave him his mistreatment of her, he still was ungrateful enough to abuse her again not even talking to wait and let her live the time she had left in peace.
I don’t understand it, even putting my mind in such disgusting person if you really are that heartless just let the woman live the time she is left why bear her, why murder her when she already was giving you everything? If he had some intelligence he would have been nice to her and would walk off from this marriage of “mutual convenience” a rich man just as he wanted.
Anyway a very sad story indeed she deserved better and could have done better, it’s amazing how even an intelligent person may make commit a mistake and involve herself with a monster if the circumstances are bad enough.
As sad as it is, it’s a cautionary tale for others. never settle, no matter how lonely we get
Funny, I recall Mike saying a few times that she was 91. IDK where you got 99 from.
>> Tom's wife Pam
@@tomfromoz8527 Yep was about to say the same as Pam😅
He knew she disinherited him, no wonder as he kept beating her. Its a weird story
He may have been afraid that she was planning to write him out of her will. She could certainly have left everything to her children.
I appreciate your sense of humour to be honest, it breaks down the nastiness of the stories. I end up with the cautionary tale and lessons at the end of this rather than the nightmares. So thank you Mike :)
U have completely convinced me that I want to marry an Irishman. I absolutely CANNOT get enough of your accent!!!
As soon as I see That Chapter... I've gotta watch!
Watched every episode and I will watch every new one. Great channel. Getting close to a half a billion views, good job Mike
Was waiting for that "Insurance Rave" dance Mike does. Always amazed by your content. 2007 I had an amazing girlfriend that ended up being a con artist and stole many people's identities in Hawaii. The courts had $1mil in bail that got revoked later and they were trying to get life in prison. Crazy story. Luckily I was not murdered. Just heart broken. Issues dating since. SUSAN SHAW, from HAWAII
Thank god nothing happen to you. Cheers!
Don't let her steal your love life too.
But you described her as an “amazing girlfriend”!?
@B4Y SH!T you don't understand sarcasm huh? And yet your watching this channel. Weird
Theres a movie with Christophe Waltz called The Worst Marriage In Georgetown about this whole story and its good!!!
'nothing gets in the way of true love, not even a walker' OMG I guffawed. So sad for that lovely woman and her family. Shocking how people fall for these nutters. We love you too Mike. Never forget it
My wine went down the wrong way 😂😂😂
He was one class above me when i was at school and we often played cards during the breaks. When this story was first told in Germany i recognised him as i lost sight of him when he left school.
His first name (at that time) is in fact Albrecht Gero and we used this name as a nick name for all the lads who wore suits (we wore jeans and stuff), listened to classical music (we were at heavy metal and so) , were never invited to any parties, and never had s…x, but had the best grades in all school exams…. I do not know how those guys are called in the us, but i am sure you remember some of those „Albrecht Gero‘s“ from your past school or university.
He grew up in Bergisch Gladbach, a city close to cologne, not in cologne itself. His mother was a teacher at the school he attended. Even his last name at that time was not Muth, but a double name, so he was not Albert/Albrecht Muth, but Albrecht Gero Muth Blossfeld (or so) . With such a name you will have difficulties and become the victim of mobbing….. of course we made his name to Albrecht Gero Muth Bloss Nicht where Bloss nicht is german for beware or stay away…..
I did not know what became of him, as i lost contact when he left school. But in fact he was nobody’s friend. His attitude was always „i am better than anybody else“ and this pseudo-elitarian approach, of which his clothing, his language, his isolation (i do not listen to your music, i do not go out with you) was a symptom. He must have been very lonesome, and this is the sad part of this story too. As i see it, his mother made him that way, and by this „i am better than everybody else“ his latter behaviour may be explained, his lies and fairy tales.
I was rather astonished when i read about this case in a German magazine.

Wow! Thank you so much for the extra background information on him! I can definitely see where he has a very arrogant and overinflated air of superiority around his person. 👍🏻
Nerds is what we call them in the UK
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I was in Germany for a bit more than 5 years, but in Berlin, from 1986 to 1991. I have several pieces of the Berlin Wall, some barbed wire from the top of the wall, etc.
