Vinnie I am truly LOVING THIS SHOW. You bring the story together with so much PASSION, CURIOSITY & CONCERNS until I can't move from my screen until it goes off. Thank you 👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾!
So glad Melissa survived. She wasn't a "strawberry" or some crackhead off the street. She's a human being. I'm happy that she's doing well and I wish her the best.
Me too! And if she’s manager at McDonald’s, that’s awesome - that means she’s working and providing for herself in a law-abiding job and not everybody can even be a manager at McDonald’s because ANY customer service job is not that easy!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 & she should have a go fund me or something!! so sad she couldn’t get those benefits! plenty of ppl have struggled w/ drugs! she’s no less of a human!!
I feel like Vinnie delivers these stories with such professionalism, yet he shows moments of his own outrage, disbelief and compassion just like all of us watching.
Melissa- you've got a great job as Manager, don't diminish your accomplishment, it's awesome. I'm sorry for what they did to you. You did not deserve that. Much love from Colorado ❤
This story alone proves she can do anything she puts her mind to!! I wish her nothing but the best. Also I applaud all the positive comments from the viewers to her this channel have the best subs ever!!! I hate to bring up race but it’s rare to see this much support on RUclips for a BW!!!
Tanika should have known that a woman who could survive what Melissa did, get out of a door with no knob, slip past a dog and out of a security door, would be a powerful adversary in court. What a tough great lady
This is a very wild story. Tanica Clement and her mum deserve all that time and more. Melissa is so brave. Praying for better days ahead. Great work Vinnie 👏🏾
I never knew about the Sistas Who Kill podcast until this. I like them. When the one sista said of the supposed kidnapping photo, "It's very much Summer Theater Camp", I almost choked on my food. 😂
I love the fact that Melissa seems like the type of person like “what you see is what you get”. She is a genuine person and just is what she is. No put on, no shows. That’s my favorite type of person and I respect that type of person more than any other type.
Yup! Same here. You never have to guess what they’re thinking or whether they’re bothered and not telling you or holding back. I love people that are up front!
So proud of Melissa, she is so articulate and clever and her will to live was so strong. So glad to see her healthy, living a good life. Well done, Melissa!!!
_"she was tough to rattle on cross examination"_ Melissa has been through some sh*t! Drug use, working the streets and almost got k*lled! That trial was nothing for her! I'm happy to see that she's doing better, has a good, honest job and has a new lease on life. She should be so proud of herself because I sure as hell am proud of her!! ❤
Me too. 37:43 She looked so pretty in those last pictures of her from court. She suits her hair short like that and the colour Royal blue. [44 years that demon got .... 44 YEARS!! Whoopee! 🎉]
I was in the same 2nd and 3rd grade classes with Tonica. She really was a smart girl and even pampered. Wore pretty dresses and doted on by her mother. I never thought in a million years she’d do something like this. It’s wild.
Never met her... but I know her brother and first cousins very well, been to tht house many times... blew my mind whn I seen this... I know mellissa too... Cleveland small as hell
It indeed runs in the Family 😮 🙄😳😭😭. Am glad that you're still here to tell your story, Melissa. Good for you and other victims that are Disregarded because of drugs, sex work etc
There was a case in Richmond that involved another Jenkins family. The family was doing serial murders in Richmond. Apparently, murder is in the Jenkins DNA. :.
Don't know about netflix... But tubi, yes. Tubi have probably done it already 😂. I thought id seen some crap films. But tubi!. That app, has some of them films , that are so bad, they are good. Like, good to have a laugh. I'm trying to think is there any movies that are good on tubi?? 🤔
Melissa is amazing. Shes the very definition of survivor. I hope the entirety of the rest of her life is filled with love, light and kindness. She deserves nothing less.
Vinnie you are so good at what you do and I can imagine you being amazing in a court room as a lawyer. I’m so happy Melissa survived and I pray for healing and for her to reunite with her children 💕
Yes this is crazy. I'm recovering addict and they should have known how hard it was to kill a coke head. Glad she got sober the best thing I ever did was get off that stuff
They were terrific! Wouldn't mind watching them on a show of their own regularly. No disrespect, but they were infinitely more entertaining and compelling than the lovely Miss Tamron Hall. She already got a show.
wow incredible story!!! Damn that gurl a cat! 9 lives! Vinnie, I think it's incredibly awesome that you shed light on what most Americans would call minority,or addicts, They are labeled and judged, And you expose a a horrific story without judgment!!!Good stuff!
The insulin injected was probably warm which would have saved Melissa's life .. I do hope that she really is off the drugs now and that she is truly on the road to recovery.🕊
This is heartbreaking and terrifying. I pray Melissa has reunited with her children, she looks happy and seems to be successfully healing. Melissa if you’re reading this I’m proud of you and all of your accomplishments. Manager at any multibillion dollar establishment is something to be very proud of. Don’t minimize to others anything you worked hard for ❤
Thank you Vinnie you are absolutely gracious and genuine when you report. Melissa you are incredible. Plus your dad is hilarious…Look dog🐶For as smart As Tonika could be she was absolutely stupid to reject the plea deal and go to trial 🙄🙄🙄. I can’t imagine going through what she went through then hear that she has to take insulin for the rest of her life and ON TOP of that is denied money from a victim’s fund is absolutely appalling 😡 Melissa your amazing just a symbol of strength🫶🫶 A strong beautiful smart Survivor❤️❤️🫶🫶🙏🏻💪🏻🫶❤️🫶❤️
You keep ur head up girl!! U deserve the best!! NO ONE has the right to judge anyone else whether u have done drugs or not!! Just keep fighting for ur babies and keep moving forward!!! U got this!! 🥰🥰
A fan here from Sistas Who Kill to support MaRah and Taz!! Theyre intelligent, funny and talented women and am so happy for them getting this opportunity. ❤ Not only do they do their research but tell the story so well. Please don't be shy to have them again!
Good job judge, jury, prosecutors, and even Tonica. Tonica wanted to roll the dice instead of serving a concurrent sentence. Tonica is now serving two consecutive sentences. This is a very dangerous, calculated, and manipulative woman and should never be released to the public. I hope Melissa is able to heal from this horrific tragedy and changed her lifestyle for the better. This was an eye opener on what drugs can lead to. Ohio is wrong for not providing victim benefits. She was a victim to a violent crime regardless of her drug addiction.
The criminal showed no remorse, made no apologies, so why would we think she has changed? One more danger to society released to mingle among us. I realize the prisons are overcrowded, but she attacked three guards at another jail where she was detained for fraud towards Yale and their scholarship program.
If Tonica would've used her cunning for good instead of evil imagine what she could've become. I'm glad she got caught. I'm glad Melissa survived. GOD BLESS her.
The two best parts of this story are the justice for the victim (Melissa) and the punishment for the criminals. I fell in love with Melissa’s spirit and attitude; and knowing she’s doing well made my heart sing. Managing to put her life together after drug addiction and a murder attempt says so much about her. Addiction is brutal; and it can destroy lives so easily. I can tell her family loves her and she loves them. To watch the scowling faces of the defendants sitting side by side revealed exactly what kind of people they are. It’s easy to look at drug addicts and write them off as low lifes. But in reality the low lifes are the daughter, mother and brother. They were willing to do anything to get what they wanted; even if it meant to murder someone. But in the end brother and sister didn’t get what they wanted; they got what they deserved. And mom will receive hers when she stands before God.
First I want to tell Melissa that she is doing fabulous. It sounds like she not only has a good job but it sounds like she has friends also. When you are an active addict you don't have friends, you have get-high buddies. Good for you darlin. But I still have 1 question. Who was paying for all of Tamika's lawyers? How did she get such high priced attorneys to take her case?
If Melissa isn't a victim of violent crime I sure do not know what is. I do know one thing for sure she is a beautiful courageous MIRACLE & she's also in my prayers. I can not even begin to imagine a night like she went through and this organization that's supposedly for victims of violent crime has to be a hoax or at the least they're very prejudiced.. Keep the faith Melissa angel🕊️God is with you.
Praying for Melissa’s healing, and her relationship with her children! This story was heartbreaking- but it looks like she was a great family that loves her! As for those other folks… judgment day shall come!
My momma always say God works in mysterious ways. Perhaps Melissa as hard as this sound, had to go through that horrid experience to change her life. She's now off drugs and is getting her life back on the straight and narrow. I wish her all the best and hope she reunites with her kids. As for the mother/daughter duo, I hope the daughter spends the full term of her sentence, she's a danger to society and it seem as if she's inreformable.
Melissa, you go girl, the universe had a better plan for you and I can tell you are a strong loyal honest and reliable woman . I wish you the very best xx
I remember this story from years and years ago. It gives me chills, just thinking About how Melissa must have felt. Being that close to death. I hope and pray that Melissa continued to do well.
She should be so proud of herself working as a manager @ McDonald's now is terrific. ❤️ She's had a lot to overcome & is still suffering from the effects yet she did with no help from the Victims Fund which I think she should have received something. I'm so happy she survived her deadly attack. She was able to take the stand & tell the truth that had them both convicted & sent to prison so she had the last laughter & took dangerous people off the streets. She overcame her addiction & she looks great & has her family members by her side. She's a survivor & an inspiration to others. I wish her all the best! ❤ Ontario, 🇨🇦
God bless you Melissa and congrats on your manager position. Good luck with making amends with your children, could be one of the reasons god kept you here ♥️
IAM very happy that Melissa survived and was able ti be happy after all what happened. I loved the two podcast girley, where do I find them. I didn't find them in RUclips
The mom would do anything to help her daughter not get convicted, but she did nothing to try to make her life better and keep her away from what they did and who they were. Evil family.
And that’s exactly how she created that monster of a daughter, not teaching and reinforcing boundaries and ‘overdoing and overloving’ her daughter to the point she created a narcissist… no mumma you weren’t no innocent and your daughter was an evil, manipulative, selfish brat who was willing to go to any length.
@@shell8481 There was a decided arrogance and lack of remorse in the mother's demeanor during the trial. And they were both smiling and gloating during the drug buy. So we can see one of the root causes right there, "MY baby can do no wrong!"
Who paid the high cost lawyers to try to get the Jenkins off of the hook. The judge & prosecution should have never let any questioning from the defense of bringing up her (criminal past). The Judge is complicit . Thank God the jury did the right thing. :.
Clapping 👏 for Melisa. Glad you made it. You are a strong woman 👍🏿💯♥️All the best forward sweetheart. It is not what happens to you in life but what you do with it. You are an over comer and know that great things w born in adversity💯♥️
Hey Court TV!! How about doing a show on victims and how they are moving forward and healing? Maybe a follow-up on Melissa at some point. We all become so interested and invested in the victims.
Well done Melissa for speaking up for yourself. You told the truth, proud of you sis. Look how far you have come and achieved. God has you covered! ❤🙏🏾❤️
God Bless Melissa! I can't imagine going through something like that and being strong enough to survive it. nothing but good vibes to her and her children. They should know how amazing she is.
Unbelievable that Ohio screwed her over..Melissa is a strong woman to fight off an outsmart her attackers an get away from years of drugs...I pray for her an wish her the best in life.

Vinnie I am truly LOVING THIS SHOW. You bring the story together with so much PASSION, CURIOSITY & CONCERNS until I can't move from my screen until it goes off. Thank you 👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾!
I believe you have a new fan Vinnie ‼️ nicely done 👍.
Well put together, BRAVO. I teared up & I laughed.
Thank you Vinnie..cool as always but there is too much crime in the US at present What is going on??,
No
So glad Melissa survived. She wasn't a "strawberry" or some crackhead off the street. She's a human being. I'm happy that she's doing well and I wish her the best.
Me too! And if she’s manager at McDonald’s, that’s awesome - that means she’s working and providing for herself in a law-abiding job and not everybody can even be a manager at McDonald’s because ANY customer service job is not that easy!
Yeh that dude was all too excited to call her a strawberry 😂
I'm infuriated the state of Ohio denied her victim's compensation. I really hope she was paid for this appearance.
@@LynxStarAutoI was like that’s so unprofessional. I have never ever heard someone refer to someone in the streets that!
Crackhead prostitutes are human beings.
Manager at McDonald’s is a huge accomplishment! She’s a productive member of society now. Good for her she should be so proud of herself.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 & she should have a go fund me or something!! so sad she couldn’t get those benefits! plenty of ppl have struggled w/ drugs! she’s no less of a human!!
Facts! It's a job, and she's making money legally and doing better for herself. No shame in working at McDonald's.
Amen
You go Melissa. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
An her mother with her doing this pathetic
I feel like Vinnie delivers these stories with such professionalism, yet he shows moments of his own outrage, disbelief and compassion just like all of us watching.
Right? I really enjoy Vinnie.
He does, he has all of our attention until it's over lol. He's a great TRUE CRIME CORRESPONDENT & ADVOCATE 💯!
Love it not quite bill Kurt but he is my next favorite voice is great !!!
🤎🤎🤎
A 🍓 ? 😂 I have been around awhile but that’s a new one for me
😅
Melissa- you've got a great job as Manager, don't diminish your accomplishment, it's awesome. I'm sorry for what they did to you. You did not deserve that. Much love from Colorado ❤
I agree! It can be a wonderful steppingstone to another career, and that career is commendable. It takes a lot to run McDonald’s.
This story alone proves she can do anything she puts her mind to!! I wish her nothing but the best. Also I applaud all the positive comments from the viewers to her this channel have the best subs ever!!! I hate to bring up race but it’s rare to see this much support on RUclips for a BW!!!
I second that. Double the love from Colorado.
I had a girlfriend in North Carolina that looks like tanika and at the end she was crazy ...
She is not a manager,she said:"they try to make me a manager".
Tanika should have known that a woman who could survive what Melissa did, get out of a door with no knob, slip past a dog and out of a security door, would be a powerful adversary in court. What a tough great lady
Yassss, the resiliency of this woman!!! I pray she continues to prosper…❤️❤️
So proud of her!!! Tanika will throw anyone under the bus!!
Go Melissa
Not to mention being stabbed, injected and beaten with a brick . . . repeatedly.
Melissa was covered by the blood of JESUS CHRIST, She had Angeles watching over her...Highly Favored..And it wasn't her time...
This case is absolutely bonkers. If Tanika’s mother really cared about her she would have stopped her, not helped commit the crime!
That mother looked very "slack-jawed" in the courtroom. Probably was never a good influence.
Safe to say she was a terrible mother
She knew her cousin to help her trying to kill Melissa, the extensive family are probably degenerates.
I think Tonica Jenkins should have gotten a longer sentence than she did. The federal govt was stupid to let her have house arrest in the first pace.
Everyone has a right to help their defense
I agree .
This is a very wild story. Tanica Clement and her mum deserve all that time and more. Melissa is so brave. Praying for better days ahead. Great work Vinnie 👏🏾
Who is Clement? Tonica last name is Jenkins
LOVE everything, Vinnie Politan does! His conviction is palpable! More air time for this Gentleman is needed ASAP!
I agree. I come in to Court TV only for Vinnie
I agree….well said 🙌
Agreed! 👌
Yes I was just saying, I think this has become one of my favorite shows on Court tv. Vinnie's style of how he tells the story is awesome 👏🏿💯!!!
@@chayukykenig3055Me too 🙋🏼♀️
I never knew about the Sistas Who Kill podcast until this. I like them. When the one sista said of the supposed kidnapping photo, "It's very much Summer Theater Camp", I almost choked on my food. 😂

great podcast💙

So proud of Melissa, she is so articulate and clever and her will to live was so strong. So glad to see her healthy, living a good life. Well done, Melissa!!!
Ms. Latham, good to know you're doing well and have the full support and love of your family. I hope you will be reunited with your children.
We need a part 2. We gotta pray for Melissa, she's amazing. Hoping all the best for her. That sentence they got was nothing btw.
_"she was tough to rattle on cross examination"_
Melissa has been through some sh*t! Drug use, working the streets and almost got k*lled! That trial was nothing for her! I'm happy to see that she's doing better, has a good, honest job and has a new lease on life. She should be so proud of herself because I sure as hell am proud of her!! ❤
She was tough because she was truthful. They wanted people to see the worst in her but fortunately the jury saw a true victim.
Me too.
37:43 She looked so pretty in those last pictures of her from court. She suits her hair short like that and the colour Royal blue.
[44 years that demon got .... 44 YEARS!! Whoopee! 🎉]
Melissa, you are worth it and God knows who you are. It's an honor to listen to you. Best.
Way to go Melissa !! Courage is a beautiful thing.

Melissa has made my heart sing, as a recovering drug user I can identify so much with her.
Listen I'm 6 minutes in and this is so good already. (Now Vinnie is my TV boyfriend ... so there's that 😂) I love this show!!!
😂😂Got to admit he is handsome.😊
He is and from Jersey like me!!!
Agreed 😉!!
Yessssssss!!! He's a silver fox and very handsome!!!! ❤
😂😂😂😂😂
Melissa, you are a powerful woman. Thank you for sharing your survival story.
God bless Melissa. She had me in tears 😢. I wish nothing but happiness for her.

Madness! I hope Netflix does a movie about this, I’ve never heard of this psychopath before.
Me either & I watch true crime docs all the time
This would be a great movie. She should be so PROUD OF HERSELF!!! GOD BLESS HER PLEASE 🙏 ❤
Only if it helps Melissa
I'm not into watching TV but a movie like this would capture my attention ..
Don't know about netflix... But tubi, yes. Tubi have probably done it already 😂. I thought id seen some crap films. But tubi!. That app, has some of them films , that are so bad, they are good. Like, good to have a laugh. I'm trying to think is there any movies that are good on tubi?? 🤔
Melissa is amazing. Shes the very definition of survivor. I hope the entirety of the rest of her life is filled with love, light and kindness. She deserves nothing less.
Vinnie you are so good at what you do and I can imagine you being amazing in a court room as a lawyer. I’m so happy Melissa survived and I pray for healing and for her to reunite with her children 💕
He was both a Prosecutor and a Defense Attorney before founding Court TV in the 90s..
I love this new series with Vinnie!
Nothing but miraculous. God gave Melissa another chance at life, and she is doing the most with it. God bless her 🙌🏽
Melissa, you give me inspiration. I'm honestly in awe of your attitude and spunk. I genuinely wish all the best for you!
Aww. Melissa. I’m glad you survived and surely wish you well. 🌹 ❤
Thank u
Melissa, you showed them how strong you are!! Good for you!!
So happy she is clean. A second chance at life even though the situation was horrific to get there. Bless her.
Yes this is crazy. I'm recovering addict and they should have known how hard it was to kill a coke head. Glad she got sober the best thing I ever did was get off that stuff
The two sista podcast co-hosts need to be back! I enjoyed listening to them!❤
They were terrific! Wouldn't mind watching them on a show of their own regularly. No disrespect, but they were infinitely more entertaining and compelling than the lovely Miss Tamron Hall. She already got a show.

Melissa, you should be proud of yourself! I'm so happy you're alive and well. You deserve every ounce of joy in your life.
Vinnie is absolutely great with these stories. I cover true crime and his videos really inspire me.
Melissa!!! You’re the hero, girl. Wow. She should be so proud.❤
Becoming a manger at Mc Donalds is BIG thing, especially when you come from the struggles that she did. She should be proud.
The insulin injected was probably warm which would have saved Melissa's life .. I do hope that she really is off the drugs now and that she is truly on the road to recovery.🕊
Yes addiction is horrible I spent 6 years in addiction. Don't wish it on anyone. It takes everything from u
Everything that Vinnie touches turns to gold.
Way to go Mellisa. I wish all the best in your new life. You are so strong.
This is heartbreaking and terrifying. I pray Melissa has reunited with her children, she looks happy and seems to be successfully healing.

Wow. My Pops was a diabetic and I've seen what insulin does. I'm amazed she survived that. She had an angel watching over her. Bless her. 🙏
Melissa is a warrior. She has a purpose in this world
God bless you Melissa and congrats on your manager position. Good luck with making amends with your children, could be one of the reasons god kept you here ♥️
God bless Melissa. May extra angels meet her on the path. I'm sober 25+ years and... but for the grace of God.
Beautiful💜
Yes, great job Vinny.
Melissa~ you are a gift and light this world. May you Always be blessed. 💜Much Love to you.

Thanks so much! This show is great 🤩👍
Great story. Never heard of it before
Hey Court TV!! How about doing a show on victims and how they are moving forward and healing? Maybe a follow-up on Melissa at some point. We all become so interested and invested in the victims.
Well done Melissa for speaking up for yourself. You told the truth, proud of you sis. Look how far you have come and achieved. God has you covered! ❤🙏🏾❤️
Gotta love, Vinnie Politan! Definitely a favorite and very entertaining ❤
Love the stories with Vinnie! ❤
God Bless Melissa! I can't imagine going through something like that and being strong enough to survive it. nothing but good vibes to her and her children. They should know how amazing she is.
Hello, Vinnie! I've watched you, and Court TV for years! I'm happy to see you! Thank You!
@MelissaLatham - you overcame the worst of life. It's time to be proud...... You are a reason to be inspired! Good luck moving forward xx
Yes he'll take you through some things. But he'll never ever let you down. He's always been there. You only need to thank him.❤❤amen.
I love that Vinnie is doing these stories! (Cases)
The mother didn't love her daughter, if she had, she would had hold her accountable for her actions. Tough love.
Yea the evil was definitely inherited here. The daughter and mother were both evil and selfish. Just wastes of life
Girl, you work that McDonalds job and be proud! You are alive and straight-Good for you!!❤
I love that podcast! I love seeing them on here.
I think this should be a movie it is just to crazy! That it almost feels like a dark horror comedy.
I love Melissa. You go girl! Glad you are still here to tell your story ❤
Unbelievable that Ohio screwed her over..Melissa is a strong woman to fight off an outsmart her attackers an get away from years of drugs...I pray for her an wish her the best in life.
Melissa...you are a MIRACLE!!
Well done, Melissa 👏🏾 ✔️
10 kilos for 90k sounds like a set up😂😂😂🤦
If the system had worked properly, Tonica would’ve had a record as well!
This case infuriates me!
Im glad this is on RUclips. I started watching this at work on my lunch break.
