I feel bad for Ruby smart dog she was talking in her way she was upset and told the Boyfriend there is a tragedy please come look. Very sad for the dog.
This reminds me of that supernatural episode where the dog was the only witness so dean does a spell so he can talk to the dog which he does but ends up acting like a dog... if only that was possible in real life so many crimes would be solved
Wait... someone REALLY blamed her for calling the police? I wouldn't care if it was my wedding day if you are in danger I will stop my wedding to make sure you are safe. Victim blaming is getting really old!
It's so sickening. What kind of world do we live in that a woman is shamed for trying to protect herself? If it was my wedding I'd call the cops myself!
Without going into a lot of details, I know of someone who was assaulted a day before her family member's wedding and not only was she demoted from being a bride's maid because of it, but said family member also didn't want the police involved bc she didn't want her special day ruined. Talk about victim blaming. They even saw the person in the act, and let him go.
My daughter told no one she was being abused. Her boyfriends mom saw bruises on her arms and made her and their 2 kids move in with her, and she broke up with her boyfriend...a few months later he said he was taking the girls to the park. He put them in his car and then shot my daughter multiple times in the kitchen. He then killed himself, he didn't die until after his mom found them and he arrived at the hospital. My daughter Samantha never thought her ex Jordan would kill her.. you cannot trust abusers, you have to cut all ties somehow. Its harder if you have kids. If Kenny didn't kill Egypt, maybe it was someone that was jealous of Egypt. Its sad that Egypts mom cannot see that an abuser is the most likely killer, however I agree with not coming out with no evidence that he committed the murder. I will add that since I am 46, a lot of older people either don't want to believe who and what abusers actually are capable of or were taught the "boys will be boys" mentality. I never liked my daughters ex. He always seemed controlling to me. I hope this case is solved for her loved ones.
Our daughter passed away April 28th 2009 & we played THAT SONG at her wake & Funeral.... Then my Husband passed away April 28th 2012 3YRS TO THE DAY AFTER OUR DAUGHTER PASSED & we played THAT SONG at her wake & Funeral as well.... I IMMEDIATELY started crying when I heard it in the intro.... Then I read Danelle's comment saying it was Egypt Singing in the intro.... THEN THE WATERWORKS REALLY STARTED*!*!*!*!*! I got chills all the way up & down my spine knowing that it's EGYPT singing that SPECIFIC SONG..........
I feel like her size and strength doesn't add in as much since she was shot. People will do a lot of things at gunpoint. Especially if she knew him and thought she could talk him down.
My thoughts exactly. Even if she *didn't* know the killer, it's possible that she might have thought she could talk them down - she seems like the kind and empathic type who would have at least had a chance at it!
She did know her killer. Thanks to Van Buren police for a shotty investigation because Kenny may never be charged. Egypt was one of the nicest people I ever had the pleasure to be around. Truly a heartbreaking loss for so many people.
I think she said that it had to have been someone she knew that surprised her because she would have tried to kick their ass. And a gun would do it. Most people would try to talk them down. And the lights could have been from her cleaning and making space for Curtis in a closet or something.
if he was taking care of the dog after her death and her mom was okay with it im sure the dog acted normal around him... and it definitely wouldnt if it saw him killing its family member. says a lot
It may even be the reason he asked for the dog - to cover his tracks and pamper the dog before investigators are around to see how the dog reacted. Plus those little dogs are like some cats: make a fuss of me, and I don't care what I've seen you do to someone else (somewhat self centered and silly); if this had been a dog bred to 'protect the herd' like a German Shepherd, Husky, a Ridgeback or a hound the killer would have been shredded during the attack or any time the dog sees him after. Sickening that there are no leads on the monster that did this! I do believe the killer will boast, or threaten a new partner with a confession - justice for Egypt will come in the next five years 💐
I understand you can't just pin something on them and ruin their reputation without evidence... but if Kenny causes a scene like that in public (yelling, etc.) I can't imagine how he acted behind closed doors.
A family member of mine got pinned for murder and reputation ruined when they were innocent. Shotty police work for sure. Life never the same. Wish they could sue. The real murderer was the one that was deceased. An obvious suicide. Luckily the case had been dropped bc there was no way they could prove murder. No evidence. Nothing.
Carpe-This MAGA-Diem I believe they should only release suspect information to family members to avoid situations like this. They just costed that person a lot of jobs. Hell, their life, potentially
Yeah, like everything else going on wasn't warning enough. I feel like it wasn't a crime of passion but more so dispassion. Him not wanting her to move on from him by punishing her to a slow and suffering death. Cold blooded. 𝘐𝘧 𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶, 𝘯𝘰 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭.
The one thing that makes the Christmas lights part less strange is the fact that she was going through her things in preparation for Curtiss to move in. She might’ve had seasonal decorations sitting out because she was Re-organizing a storage space. So if someone came in and decided on the spur of a moment to hurt her, that might’ve been the closest thing to a rope that was in reach
Right? And I'm not trying to just be one of those "oh the poor dog" people cause this is still devastating for the people. But the dog can't even talk about it?
WTF! A young woman is brutally murdered and all you're worried about is the dog? Let's crowd source for a dog shrink and get the dog some counselling! FFS, get a sense of perspective!
I know some people don't like it when people comment on her appearance/makeup during these videos but I don't mind it. I think a little appreciation of artistic talent doesn't do any harm (wish I could put a shrug emoji here)
That mother is stronger than I could ever be. I believe what she's doing is "keeping her enemies closer". If she explodes on him and point her finger at him SHE will never get all of her questions answered SHE may never get closure. So i believe, although frustrating, shes playing him mentally so she can get as much closure and answers as possible.
@@loganhensley1042 lol. Serious. I was literally reading the comments to see if anyone said how naive she was being then your comment made me change my mind completely
@@dimincodimini7316 Ya that was actually my first thought too but then my 3rd eye kicked in ... I just try and look at things from every angle ... Things are usually never what they seem to be at face value.
Ok but her "keeping him close" is doing nothing for the investigation....if she actually thought that befriending him would help, it would've helped by now but it hasn't
It takes a special person to do videos that are completely about someone else, MOST RUclipsrs like the attention on themselves and for that I commend Danelle 😍😍😍😍
Wow, thank you all for liking my comment I even got some love from Danielle as well!!! 😮. I struggle with anxiety and depression this made my day thank you all for the love. I truly hope Egypt is found safe please share her information 🙏❤️
You're not going to tell your mom you're being abused, i never did until you could visually see it and she asked. You need to let someone know it could save your life. RIP 👼
I never told my Mom until I ended up in the emergency room because of him... Then the relationship was over, that was my last straw. But you are correct, you don't usually tell your parents every time it happens.
@@mommy2rae586 same my ex gave me a brain hemmorage and now he's in prison for attempted murder. Good riddance. We deserve better and will get better one day 🤗💗💗
That's what I was thinking. And I think I may be remembering it wrong, otherwise I think Danelle would have pointed it out, but wasn't the door not fully closed? what if the murderer knocked on her door and then threatened her with the gun, pushing their way in. Even if the door was completely closed that's still a possibility.
Yeah, she told me once that she felt like she wasn't going to live a long life. She died in a car crash when we were teenagers. Extremely heartbreaking 💔 however, the life she lived was beautiful and she was such a lovely soul.
Yeah, right. I don't believe u. If it is true, maybe u should turn the computer off and spend time with ur kid. Her channel is about brutal crimes and murder.
Really? How rude. The child is two. They're not gonna understand any of this. No matter how smart they are. My granddaughter is a genius and she wouldn't have understood this at that age. Grow up
I'm a relatively new sub. And 10 years older than you... But you're literally living my dream. Good for you! I have been binge watching your videos for a week. You're an amazing woman and are so respectful to the families. I hope to see much more
@@polynesian_tingz906 How about you worry about yourself, especially considering you know nothing about the situation (age of the boy, mental health of the boy, etc)? Is that too much to ask nowadays?
The thing is, if it's premeditated with a gun as the weapon, then the person goes in knowing what they're going to do and how they're going to get away with it. Gunshot to the back of the head= they didn't want to look at the victim's eyes before they shot them. This means they could've been feeling guilt and knew that they may change their mind if they looked into her eyes. That leads me to believe she may have opened the door for someone (likely Kenny) she trusted, been ambushed with a gun and lead to the bedroom. She could have trusted that she may be able to talk this person into dropping the weapon, which is why she didn't fight back. We really don't have enough evidence of blood spatter, positions, time of death, etc., to come to a closer conclusion.
@@TheSpasticAvenger not necessarily. She might've just been tied for "aesthetic" purposes (as morbid as that is), especially considering that they were Christmas lights. Or someone who thought they would actually hold her down, i.e an idiot or someone under the influence. It's been a minute since I watched this video, but if I recall, doesn't she get tied up post mortem too or no? Also, it's mentioned that she is quite good at kicking ass, even to men, so it was likely just someone she knew that knew how strong she was, and didn't want to fight her. Not necessarily that they were weaker than her. I also don't know how large she is but she seems very tall and Amazonian- like too. Most of these are slight generalizations about the case without rewatching the video, so correct me if I'm wrong about any of it.
@@susiechoban1542 the person was obviously smart enough to not leave evidence at the scene, so maybe they knew if they started muddling with other stuff at the scene that they would be more likely to leave evidence the more they touched things and moved things around.
Oh Danelle, you always find a way to make me cry. If it wasn’t the intro/outro, it’s how beautifully passionate you speak about these victims. You’ve got copious amounts of empathy and I just hope that if you ever experience anything similar (god forbid) someone will speak up the same way and get you justice. Thankyou for yet another amazing video!
Re: the Christmas Lights. She was cleaning up her house and getting rid of stuff to make room for her boyfriend. The Christmas Lights were probably her lights, and she was in the process of packing them up.
No disrespect to Egypt but it's very clear that she was entertaining her ex Kenny, still keeping in contact with him, updating him on her love life with Curtis. I don't believe it was stalking considering Egypt kept talking to him
@@vecam2059 i think she knew how volatile he was and was trying to pacify him and keep him from doing anything crazy......many women do this in abusive relationships because they are scared and always try to keep the peace
@@Pussycatfeathers Exactly, and sometimes it is safer to “keep tabs” on your ex by staying in contact with them. Especially if she was afraid of what he might do. I’ve been in an abusive relationship and did something similar after we broke up. He beat me and told me: “I could slit your throat while you sleep and nobody would hear you. I’d bury you in buttfuck nowhere, and you’d never be found.” I have never been more terrified in my life, but I thought perhaps if I kept in contact following the break up, I’d be able to anticipate if he might do something. It’s a sad reality and I’m so sorry for Egypt and her family. May she Rest In Peace.
She had such a beautiful voice... Thinking about what dudes are like to women who work as waitstaff always makes me glad that I did my stint bartending in gay bars as the "token lesbian"!
To whom it may concern, For future reference, once someone is an ex, you owe them no more explanations. People have GOT to stop acting like "Oh, he/she needs to hear it from me". No, the psycho doesn't need to hear ANYTHING from you. The SECOND they became an ex, any claim they may have previously had on your time or any say in your choices is O.V.E.R. Not blaming her whatsoever but we, as a collective, need to stop pretending like relationship/breakup violence is a thing that doesn't happen often. It happens all the time. It is also most likely to happen when the relationship ends & when you move on. It happens to both genders. Men are more likely to perpetuate it but it also is not uncommon for men to be abused this way too, just usually to a lesser extent. If someone can't seem to let go (man or woman), that is a problem. That is something that needs to be reported. That is something to which there needs to be immediate consequences. I also get pretty tired of people who just cannot hear the other person. No means no. If you aren't mature enough to deal with hearing that, you are not mature enough for ANY romantic relationship. Period. If one person is no longer happy & wants out you don't have a relationship anymore anyway. You have something else entirely & it ain't good. Let them go, heal, move on & find that one person who "gets" you. Also I suggest finding yourself a good therapist. This has been a friendly PSA. Sincerely, Me P.S. Have a great day & good luck out there. It sounds savage to be looking for a relationship. Glad I don't have to do that.
I genuinely hope that whoever took this girl's life gets caught. It's absolutely disgusting how someone can take a life away from someone else and be able to walk among the rest of us
The Christmas lights were probably out because she was cleaning the house. She was probably subdued because her killer had the gun pointed at her. She said she felt Kenny was like a poor puppy dog so she could have felt bad for him and also been scared of him at the same time. Guilty people do cooperate with authorities when being questioned. If only Ruby could speak...
The Christmas lights almost seem symbolic somehow. I love how invested you get in these cases. Every time I listen, it feels as though I'm hearing you talk about someone you personally know.
If the dog was around when he was shouting at her it would react negatively, so that would tell you only that he wasn't trusted. I find it interesting that the dog ran from her boyfriend, did the dog just mistrust males?
Becca, do you know if the 3 men that killed her were charged yet? I’m guessing you probably know what actually happened to Egypt. I found the rest of the story online today. So sad that they were at the wrong house.
Oh my godddd that ending of Egypt singing that song has me SOBBING in public 😭 I didn’t realize the intro was her!! What a beautiful human being, it’s so heartbreaking that such good people are taken from this earth so tragically and needlessly. I hope they are able to put a close to this case soon. 💜
I think the x lover hired a hitman! That's why he could tell in detail about his day, and that's why it didn't look like a crime of passion or personal! That's my guess.
Its obvious how much work you put into your videos!! They are all so well put together and good. I know these families appreciate this from you! This is a sad story and I too remember this from crime watch daily. Certain cases stick w me and this was one of them!! You could tell how deeply Curtis cared about her. She was a gorgeous girl and deserves justice!!!! Prayers for this family. Keep up the good work in spreading awareness!!
In which room was she murdered in? That itself shows a lot - maybe it was one of her friends (that Kenny slept with) and she came to talk to her. If she was killed, for example, in her bedroom, it had to most likely be someone she trusted enough to let them further into her apartment. The christmas lights might be explained with her moving and cleaning up or maybe the killer came to return the lights from when she had borrowed them to someone? Also my first instinct was that she was tied up afterwards aswell! But maybe they pointed a gun at her and that's why she didn't show any signs of struggle. In my opinion it could be Kenny but it could also be one of her friends (who had a thing with Kenny).
Thank you for pushing through and presenting this case for us to all learn about Egypt and the quest for justice on her behalf. This was really emotional! Mother sounds like the type who trusts people and takes them at their word -- unfortunately though the world is not so kind in return. Normally I wouldn't say something like this buuuut this makes me think of a few bartenders I've gotten to know. Pretty girls with hundreds and hundreds of Facebook with lots of creepy stalker-type issues going on all the time. This is so weird about the Christmas lights - I remember seeing this "sexy" picture on Tumblr a few months ago that was like an erotic photoshoot using christmas lights. How incredibly sad. They need a P.I. to put some pressure on this case
i love how i can make breakfast for my family while listening to your stories. so much information and presented so well, you’re really getting these victims names out there and it’s so great. keep it up💖
Very moving and respectful video, I pray the search for the truth will end very soon! Her family deserves that soo much! Brought tears to my eyes, and reminds me that everyone who is missing deserves those that will continue to push for answers! Keep up all the hard work Danelle!!
If someone had Egypt at gun point the entire time then I don't think their would have been a struggle, some people won't want any confrontation when the other person has a weapon. They just do what they're told. Also what if Kenny is threatening Egypt's mother, so she said he doesn't seem like a violent suspect.
so proud of your determination and compassion with this and other cases! I promise I'll spread the word about Egypt! shared on facebook and twitter! ❤️
*_Good and very informative video.I recall reading about this story on a blog when it occurred.The mother is in total denial about Kenneth because the fact that he not only stalked her but she ONCE saw him shove her._*
I wonder if it was work related. Maybe even a female from work. Maybe an ex or current significant other of Kenny. Egypt may have felt comfortable letting a woman in to "talk" and was shot from behind and hands tied afterwards.
Danielle & Stephanie uploading in the same hour?! I'm in heaven 😆😇 perfect way to end my long work day. I can enjoy listening to both of you while I do laundry!! 💜😀
When you said that Egypt's mom let Kenny dog sit Ruby I wonder if anyone saw how the dog reacted to him? Or would too much time have passed for the dog to react? I imagine the dog might remember the smell of someone who attacked their owner.
This whole thing is an absolute tear jerker. Gorgeous girl with a beautiful voice, and such a senseless, horrible thing to have her life taken away so young. Thoughts and prayers to her family and loved ones. :'(
Unlike a lot of the people that commented so far, I care more about the victim rather than how early I commented or if I was first. This was someone's daughter, best friend, girlfriend and how about her poor dog??? Completely heartbreaking. Praying for an arrest and conviction. Praying for peace and closure for her family and friends. Someone does know, I hope they see that they need to do the right thing for justice for Egypt. 💔
I’m from Michigan and there was no news stories about her murder which is super unheard of. The news around here covers murder cases in the while state.
i live 15 minutes from van buren michigan and had only heard of this case briefly from my boyfriend at the time whose mom had known egypt. thank you for spreading the word. this is the first case of yours i’ve heard that has been close to home for me. God bless you and your family!
I went to school with Egypt. Such a wonderful girl to be around. Thank you so much for giving her story a chance. It's been almost 2 years and still no answers 😔
May her loving soul rest in peace. Danelle, keep up with the amazing work! I completely agree that’s it’s crazy knowing that her killer is functioning and continuing with life as I’m typing this comment.
I live about 20 min from where this happened, and I know a few people who knew Egypt personally and say she was a ray of sunshine and would light up any room she entered. So incredibly sad and tragic; I pray her case gets solved soon. 🙏❤ Thank you for shedding light on Egypt.
I can see her having the Christmas lights sitting out. She might’ve been cleaning out a closet, making room for Kurtis’s things. This is such a heartbreaking story.
I actually suggested this case to you and I’m glad you’re finally covering it. I never met her personally but quite a few people I’m friends with knew her and I’m glad you’re keeping her story alive.
2022 UPDATE: Egypt was home watching a movie when, according to court testimony, two men broke into her duplex, shot her to death, and wrapped her up with Christmas lights. Those men, Timothy Eugene Moore, and Shandon Ray Groom, are headed to trial later this year. A third man, Shane Lamar Evans, has a competency hearing this summer. Moore is charged with first-degree murder, felony murder, and first-degree home invasion, as well as four counts of felony firearm. Groom is charged with first-degree murder, felony murder, and first-degree home invasion, and three counts of felony firearm. Evans is charged with felony murder and first-degree home invasion. According to court testimony, Evans did maintenance at the duplex where Covington lived, and he knew that her neighbor's home would be empty that weekend because the man was at Electric Forest music festival. That man kept marijuana in his home, was a licensed caregiver, and had talked about it on local programs, according to court testimony. His home had been burglarized prior to Covington’s murder and marijuana had been stolen. Evans told investigators that he was with his brother and cousin when they wanted weed, so they decided to go steal some from the empty duplex. Evans said he drove by the home and pointed out which one was the correct one. Moore, Groom, and another person were allegedly in a truck behind him. Evans also claimed he explained which door the men needed to enter. However, Groom and Moore are accused of entering the wrong side of the duplex, and found Covington watching a movie. "We know that they were in this home for about four or five minutes. While they were in the home, Miss Covington was bound in Christmas lights, and they took a cushion off a couch and put it over her head when they shot her in the head," said Victoria Shackelford, the assistant prosecuting attorney in Wayne County. In an interview, Evans said Moore texted him, "Wrong door." Evans said he didn't remember replying to the text and claimed he found out about Covington's death when he saw a news report. While Evans didn't go in the house, he faces felony murder, a charge that is used if someone dies during the commission of a felony, in this case - home invasion. It was initially believed that Covington knew who killed her, and Van Buren police named an ex-boyfriend as a person of interest. However, more than three years passed with no arrests. Her family pushed for Michigan State Police to handle the investigation, and in August 2020, MSP took over. Just a few months later, in November 2020, Evans and Moore were arrested. Groom was taken into custody in December 2020. Cell phone records and GPS locations were used to place Evans, Moore, and Groom at the scene of the crime. Prosecutors said the men also stole Covington’s cell phone, which pinged to the same location as their phones before they threw it away. They’re still awaiting trial as of September 2022.
I just finished watching the True Crime Daily videos of this case and it makes me tear up thinking about how her boyfriend had to find her, and to listen to him talk about her, def shows how much he LOVES HER! and also shows how big the Hole in his heart is!! R.I.P Beautifulq Angel!💜💜
I got my ass beat by an ex and never told my mom. He acted like a perfect gentleman around her. The mom is sadly in denial. She doesn't want to believe he was hurting her daughter without her knowing it.
hi there! new subscriber. i came here via cayleigh elise’s mini shoutout on her goodbye video i am sad to see her go but i’m glad she gave a shoutout to others you seem like you genuinely care as well thank you for giving a voice to those who are no longer here or receiving the coverage they need 💙
She mightn't have let her killer in per-say, it's after 10pm the door bell rings or there's a knock on the door, Ruby runs to the door barks, wags tail, indicating she knows the person, Egypt opens the door, the killer puts a gun into her face, she backs up and he enters the home. She was found lying in fetal position which indicates to me, she was told to knell down, she was shot in the back of the head which is an execution, but the trajectory of the bullet will determine that hopefully at a trial. The killer then or while she was knelling tied her hands behind her with the Christmas lights, which were more likely in the room she died in as she was moving items. Her biological Mother's attitude to the POI is worrying to say the least.
so beyond happy i ran into this video. this is one of my older sister dearest friends & not enough people have talked about her case:( we want justice for her so badly!
For anyone watching this in 2021 it turns out she was murdered by three men who mistakenly broke into her house instead of her neighbors house. They were intending to steal drugs as the neighbor was a dealer and he was away that night. They broke into the wrong house and weren’t expecting anyone to be there and shot Egypt as she sat on her couch watching a movie. All three of them were at the house for about 4/5 minutes they were arrested in November 2020 and are all facing charges including first degree murder, first degree home invasion, felony murder and felony with a firearm! Hopefully Egypt gets her justice and these men are locked up for a long long time
Such a heartbreaking case. You're so great a what you do! Thank you for taking the time on this channel to bring awareness to those of us who might never have heard about these important situations! BTW: Your hair is gorgeous.
Wow wow wow, she worked where I live and this was a big deal and then just disappeared. No one seems to have any idea what happened and no one talks about it anymore.
I'm from the area and this video is the first time I've seen her story. Thank you for speaking for people who can't and not letting victims be forgotten.
I am binge watching your videos.. it looks like her killers were just arrested in 2020!! It was a home invasion 😔 and it was meant to be a robbery of the neighbors! She was in fear for damn good reason
Her mom was exactly right the whole time...Egypt didn't feel safe because of the drug environment right next door to her. And that lead to her death. So heartbreaking.
Just to clarify, the intro is Egypt singing. Now leave your drama at the door before you proceed lol.
I LOVE that you added her voice in the intro
Hey as egypt is my brother in laws cousin i thank you so much you have made my families day omg again thank you
❤️Thank you for giving a voice to so many that need to be heard. ❤️
she nailed that song too xx
Danelle Hallan I haven’t seen any comments creating drama lol but I can see how it can be caused
If only dogs could talk... so many crimes only have one witness and that's the dog
I feel bad for Ruby smart dog she was talking in her way she was upset and told the Boyfriend there is a tragedy please come look. Very sad for the dog.
So true..
Brianna Taylor SERIOUSLY THOUGH! I think there has been at least one case where a dog identified the killer. I could be wrong though
This reminds me of that supernatural episode where the dog was the only witness so dean does a spell so he can talk to the dog which he does but ends up acting like a dog... if only that was possible in real life so many crimes would be solved
I thought this exact same thing. I bet if her dog was to see the person who did it, again, she would react differently towards whoever it was
Wait... someone REALLY blamed her for calling the police? I wouldn't care if it was my wedding day if you are in danger I will stop my wedding to make sure you are safe. Victim blaming is getting really old!
It's so sickening. What kind of world do we live in that a woman is shamed for trying to protect herself? If it was my wedding I'd call the cops myself!
100th like
Without going into a lot of details, I know of someone who was assaulted a day before her family member's wedding and not only was she demoted from being a bride's maid because of it, but said family member also didn't want the police involved bc she didn't want her special day ruined. Talk about victim blaming. They even saw the person in the act, and let him go.
Simply RaeAnn you are so Wright! Wow how can people be so crass. Succinctly put btw. X
Exactly! If someone must be blamed for ruining the Big Day then it's the person that made her unsafe, not her for calling the police. Wow.
My daughter told no one she was being abused. Her boyfriends mom saw bruises on her arms and made her and their 2 kids move in with her, and she broke up with her boyfriend...a few months later he said he was taking the girls to the park. He put them in his car and then shot my daughter multiple times in the kitchen. He then killed himself, he didn't die until after his mom found them and he arrived at the hospital. My daughter Samantha never thought her ex Jordan would kill her.. you cannot trust abusers, you have to cut all ties somehow. Its harder if you have kids. If Kenny didn't kill Egypt, maybe it was someone that was jealous of Egypt. Its sad that Egypts mom cannot see that an abuser is the most likely killer, however I agree with not coming out with no evidence that he committed the murder. I will add that since I am 46, a lot of older people either don't want to believe who and what abusers actually are capable of or were taught the "boys will be boys" mentality. I never liked my daughters ex. He always seemed controlling to me. I hope this case is solved for her loved ones.
Sorry For Your Loss
I'm so sorry.
so sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry you lost your daughter. I don't want to even imagine what that feels like. God bless you!
Christy Jones you are so strong talking about your daughters story. All my love to you xxx
Our daughter passed away
April 28th 2009 & we played THAT SONG at her wake & Funeral.... Then my Husband passed away April 28th 2012 3YRS TO THE DAY AFTER OUR DAUGHTER PASSED & we played THAT SONG at her wake & Funeral as well....
I IMMEDIATELY started crying when I heard it in the intro....
Then I read Danelle's comment saying it was Egypt Singing in the intro.... THEN THE WATERWORKS REALLY STARTED*!*!*!*!*!
I got chills all the way up & down my spine knowing that it's EGYPT singing that SPECIFIC SONG..........
Annalise Giovanni owwwww my heart hurts 😫
one of the most heartbreaking things I've ever read. I'm so so sorry for your loss
Let them R.I.P😭😭😭😭
So sorry for your loss!!!
Sending love and support to you!
I feel like her size and strength doesn't add in as much since she was shot. People will do a lot of things at gunpoint. Especially if she knew him and thought she could talk him down.
My thoughts exactly. Even if she *didn't* know the killer, it's possible that she might have thought she could talk them down - she seems like the kind and empathic type who would have at least had a chance at it!
She did know her killer. Thanks to Van Buren police for a shotty investigation because Kenny may never be charged. Egypt was one of the nicest people I ever had the pleasure to be around. Truly a heartbreaking loss for so many people.
@@aliciab7067 they said she may have knew her killer because there was no sign of a struggle
I agree. I see this a lot in videos regarding people's size, but let me tell you, that stuff can be totally ignored when a gun is pointing at you!
I think she said that it had to have been someone she knew that surprised her because she would have tried to kick their ass. And a gun would do it. Most people would try to talk them down. And the lights could have been from her cleaning and making space for Curtis in a closet or something.
I wonder how Egypt's dog acted around Kenny when her mum let him watch her? Might be quite telling
if he was taking care of the dog after her death and her mom was okay with it im sure the dog acted normal around him... and it definitely wouldnt if it saw him killing its family member. says a lot
It may even be the reason he asked for the dog - to cover his tracks and pamper the dog before investigators are around to see how the dog reacted. Plus those little dogs are like some cats: make a fuss of me, and I don't care what I've seen you do to someone else (somewhat self centered and silly); if this had been a dog bred to 'protect the herd' like a German Shepherd, Husky, a Ridgeback or a hound the killer would have been shredded during the attack or any time the dog sees him after. Sickening that there are no leads on the monster that did this! I do believe the killer will boast, or threaten a new partner with a confession - justice for Egypt will come in the next five years 💐
@@MiszzMiszz But the initial encounter: I wondered the same thing.
I understand you can't just pin something on them and ruin their reputation without evidence... but if Kenny causes a scene like that in public (yelling, etc.) I can't imagine how he acted behind closed doors.
Yes! Made me think of a certain rapist/RnB singer that gave a rather emotional interview recently.
@@Stopthisrightnow560 Hm gee could that possibly be a monster named R Kelly!
True
A family member of mine got pinned for murder and reputation ruined when they were innocent. Shotty police work for sure. Life never the same. Wish they could sue. The real murderer was the one that was deceased. An obvious suicide.
Luckily the case had been dropped bc there was no way they could prove murder. No evidence. Nothing.
Carpe-This MAGA-Diem I believe they should only release suspect information to family members to avoid situations like this. They just costed that person a lot of jobs. Hell, their life, potentially
It's not physical until that one time that is... That one time could be fatal..
So much truth. I lived in denial for 15 years
True. It happens more than people realize.
Amen sister ✋✋
Yeah, like everything else going on wasn't warning enough. I feel like it wasn't a crime of passion but more so dispassion. Him not wanting her to move on from him by punishing her to a slow and suffering death. Cold blooded. 𝘐𝘧 𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶, 𝘯𝘰 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭.
Facts!
The one thing that makes the Christmas lights part less strange is the fact that she was going through her things in preparation for Curtiss to move in. She might’ve had seasonal decorations sitting out because she was Re-organizing a storage space. So if someone came in and decided on the spur of a moment to hurt her, that might’ve been the closest thing to a rope that was in reach
Yes! That's exactly what I was thinking when I was listening to this. Let's hope that the person or persons who are responsible will be caught.
That poor dog having to witness that but being unable to help ☹️
Right? And I'm not trying to just be one of those "oh the poor dog" people cause this is still devastating for the people.
But the dog can't even talk about it?
WTF! A young woman is brutally murdered and all you're worried about is the dog?
Let's crowd source for a dog shrink and get the dog some counselling!
FFS, get a sense of perspective!
@@octowuss1888 Oh, shut up.
@@octowuss1888 shut up, jerk!
Octowuss No one is taking away any compassion or concern about the poor woman who was murdered by also being concerned about the dog, so stfu.
Can we just stop a little to appreciate Danelle's hair and makeup? Sis looking gorgeous 💕
That lewk!
She's always beautiful but especially so today!!♡
Agreed!
Agreed! Really a stunning look on her!
I know some people don't like it when people comment on her appearance/makeup during these videos but I don't mind it. I think a little appreciation of artistic talent doesn't do any harm (wish I could put a shrug emoji here)
That mother is stronger than I could ever be. I believe what she's doing is "keeping her enemies closer". If she explodes on him and point her finger at him SHE will never get all of her questions answered SHE may never get closure. So i believe, although frustrating, shes playing him mentally so she can get as much closure and answers as possible.
You just blew my freakin mind
@@dimincodimini7316 LOL ... Are you being serious or sarcastic ? I can't tell lol
@@loganhensley1042 lol. Serious. I was literally reading the comments to see if anyone said how naive she was being then your comment made me change my mind completely
@@dimincodimini7316 Ya that was actually my first thought too but then my 3rd eye kicked in ... I just try and look at things from every angle ... Things are usually never what they seem to be at face value.
Ok but her "keeping him close" is doing nothing for the investigation....if she actually thought that befriending him would help, it would've helped by now but it hasn't
Man, at the end when you realize it's her singing. I wasnt going to cry. That was beautiful. She was so beautiful and I hope this gets solved.
It takes a special person to do videos that are completely about someone else, MOST RUclipsrs like the attention on themselves and for that I commend Danelle 😍😍😍😍
Wow, thank you all for liking my comment I even got some love from Danielle as well!!! 😮. I struggle with anxiety and depression this made my day thank you all for the love. I truly hope Egypt is found safe please share her information 🙏❤️
Paris Graves she was murdered
You are right, I watched the video, I seem to have gotten her case mixed up with a different one I watched after, thank you for the correction 😀
Paris Graves r u sure ur ok? Are you typically this clueless or is it just a phase?
You're not going to tell your mom you're being abused, i never did until you could visually see it and she asked. You need to let someone know it could save your life. RIP 👼
I feel this so deep❤️
I never told my mom, until she told me she knew. She told me to get out, so I did.
I never told my Mom until I ended up in the emergency room because of him... Then the relationship was over, that was my last straw. But you are correct, you don't usually tell your parents every time it happens.
@@mommy2rae586 same my ex gave me a brain hemmorage and now he's in prison for attempted murder. Good riddance. We deserve better and will get better one day 🤗💗💗
Charlie Charlie. Same with me. 😢
Maybe she didn't fight back bc the killer had a gun pointed at her. Great video as always
That's what I was thinking. And I think I may be remembering it wrong, otherwise I think Danelle would have pointed it out, but wasn't the door not fully closed? what if the murderer knocked on her door and then threatened her with the gun, pushing their way in. Even if the door was completely closed that's still a possibility.
And also at the back of her head so she prob didnt even see a gun at all at first
Oh it turns out it was a armed robbery. They have 3 ppl just looked it up
EVERYONE LISTEN TO THAT SONG IN DANELLE'S DESCRIPTION. Egypt's voice is so beautiful and just ...holy crap. Rest in peace 💕
@OZ OMG so true. That happened with one of my friends 💕 it's so crazy, the premonitions and gentle hints that people feel. Ahh breaks my heart 💔
@@Indi_Waffle_Girl your friend had a premonition?
Yeah, she told me once that she felt like she wasn't going to live a long life. She died in a car crash when we were teenagers. Extremely heartbreaking 💔 however, the life she lived was beautiful and she was such a lovely soul.
Apparently I watch Danelle a lot bc my two year old just came running saying "Dani Dani"😂❤️
Tamara Ramage thats so sweet! 😭💕
Yeah, right. I don't believe u. If it is true, maybe u should turn the computer off and spend time with ur kid. Her channel is about brutal crimes and murder.
Really? How rude. The child is two. They're not gonna understand any of this. No matter how smart they are. My granddaughter is a genius and she wouldn't have understood this at that age. Grow up

Can your son not clean his own room? 🤷🏽♀️
@@polynesian_tingz906 hes probably really young and has toys all over
@@polynesian_tingz906 How about you worry about yourself, especially considering you know nothing about the situation (age of the boy, mental health of the boy, etc)? Is that too much to ask nowadays?
I watch these videos while cleaning too and ironing! So relaxing
desdemona42 I love listening to her videos while cleaning too!
The thing is, if it's premeditated with a gun as the weapon, then the person goes in knowing what they're going to do and how they're going to get away with it. Gunshot to the back of the head= they didn't want to look at the victim's eyes before they shot them. This means they could've been feeling guilt and knew that they may change their mind if they looked into her eyes. That leads me to believe she may have opened the door for someone (likely Kenny) she trusted, been ambushed with a gun and lead to the bedroom. She could have trusted that she may be able to talk this person into dropping the weapon, which is why she didn't fight back. We really don't have enough evidence of blood spatter, positions, time of death, etc., to come to a closer conclusion.
Emily Custer Not necessarily - single gunshot to the back of the head is standard execution. If the killer felt guilt, the body would be covered.
...but why tie her up, seems like it was someone smaller than her?
@@TheSpasticAvenger not necessarily. She might've just been tied for "aesthetic" purposes (as morbid as that is), especially considering that they were Christmas lights. Or someone who thought they would actually hold her down, i.e an idiot or someone under the influence. It's been a minute since I watched this video, but if I recall, doesn't she get tied up post mortem too or no? Also, it's mentioned that she is quite good at kicking ass, even to men, so it was likely just someone she knew that knew how strong she was, and didn't want to fight her. Not necessarily that they were weaker than her. I also don't know how large she is but she seems very tall and Amazonian- like too. Most of these are slight generalizations about the case without rewatching the video, so correct me if I'm wrong about any of it.
@@susiechoban1542 there are many ways to show guilt. Execution style can also be the murderer trying to disconnect oneself with the victim
@@susiechoban1542 the person was obviously smart enough to not leave evidence at the scene, so maybe they knew if they started muddling with other stuff at the scene that they would be more likely to leave evidence the more they touched things and moved things around.
Side note, your hair & make up look absolutely gorgeous.
Brennan Gappy Agreed. My hair is about the same Length, would Love a detailed tutorial!💕💕💕
The just woke up look
Oh Danelle, you always find a way to make me cry. If it wasn’t the intro/outro, it’s how beautifully passionate you speak about these victims. You’ve got copious amounts of empathy and I just hope that if you ever experience anything similar (god forbid) someone will speak up the same way and get you justice. Thankyou for yet another amazing video!
Re: the Christmas Lights. She was cleaning up her house and getting rid of stuff to make room for her boyfriend. The Christmas Lights were probably her lights, and she was in the process of packing them up.
After u mentioned her bf I remembered watching this on crime watch daily. He seemed like he was so incredibly in love with her. So sad
It was terrible to watch
@@DanelleHallan Egypt is my friend's sister. October 5th 2020 2 men were arrested for her murder.
Why didn’t Curtis ever stand up to Kenny? If some guy was messing around with my girl I’d be up in his face to back off and leave.
prob because Egypt would not let him so to keep the peace because she knew that her x would hurt him and would be dangerous,Egypt knew!!!!
No disrespect to Egypt but it's very clear that she was entertaining her ex Kenny, still keeping in contact with him, updating him on her love life with Curtis. I don't believe it was stalking considering Egypt kept talking to him
We also dont fully know. For all we know they could of had "words" through the duration of the relationship...
@@vecam2059 i think she knew how volatile he was and was trying to pacify him and keep him from doing anything crazy......many women do this in abusive relationships because they are scared and always try to keep the peace
@@Pussycatfeathers Exactly, and sometimes it is safer to “keep tabs” on your ex by staying in contact with them. Especially if she was afraid of what he might do. I’ve been in an abusive relationship and did something similar after we broke up. He beat me and told me: “I could slit your throat while you sleep and nobody would hear you. I’d bury you in buttfuck nowhere, and you’d never be found.” I have never been more terrified in my life, but I thought perhaps if I kept in contact following the break up, I’d be able to anticipate if he might do something. It’s a sad reality and I’m so sorry for Egypt and her family. May she Rest In Peace.
I got chills listening to Egypt singin rise up on RUclips. And then realizing the intro to this episode was her singing full body chills
Thanks for posting this!!!!! I went and listened and holy crap 💛
@@Indi_Waffle_Girl yes it got me a bit choked up thinking about her end
Thank you for sharing....I got the chills. So incredibly heartbreaking!!!
@O Z I agree any job that requires politeness seems to be a ticket to do whatever to this creepy agressive men
She had such a beautiful voice... Thinking about what dudes are like to women who work as waitstaff always makes me glad that I did my stint bartending in gay bars as the "token lesbian"!
Woah I watched the Crime Watch Daily series and it was so heartbreaking. My prayers are with them 💖😭
To whom it may concern,
For future reference, once someone is an ex, you owe them no more explanations. People have GOT to stop acting like "Oh, he/she needs to hear it from me". No, the psycho doesn't need to hear ANYTHING from you. The SECOND they became an ex, any claim they may have previously had on your time or any say in your choices is O.V.E.R.
Not blaming her whatsoever but we, as a collective, need to stop pretending like relationship/breakup violence is a thing that doesn't happen often. It happens all the time. It is also most likely to happen when the relationship ends & when you move on. It happens to both genders. Men are more likely to perpetuate it but it also is not uncommon for men to be abused this way too, just usually to a lesser extent.
If someone can't seem to let go (man or woman), that is a problem. That is something that needs to be reported. That is something to which there needs to be immediate consequences. I also get pretty tired of people who just cannot hear the other person. No means no. If you aren't mature enough to deal with hearing that, you are not mature enough for ANY romantic relationship. Period.
If one person is no longer happy & wants out you don't have a relationship anymore anyway. You have something else entirely & it ain't good. Let them go, heal, move on & find that one person who "gets" you. Also I suggest finding yourself a good therapist. This has been a friendly PSA.
Sincerely,
Me
P.S. Have a great day & good luck out there. It sounds savage to be looking for a relationship. Glad I don't have to do that.
I genuinely hope that whoever took this girl's life gets caught. It's absolutely disgusting how someone can take a life away from someone else and be able to walk among the rest of us
I hope she rest in peace
The Christmas lights were probably out because she was cleaning the house. She was probably subdued because her killer had the gun pointed at her. She said she felt Kenny was like a poor puppy dog so she could have felt bad for him and also been scared of him at the same time. Guilty people do cooperate with authorities when being questioned. If only Ruby could speak...
I had to pause the video as soon as it started to go listen to 'Where'd You Go', how did I ever forget that song existed.
Fort Minor
I live in the same town as she did. We are all so puzzled about it. I follow this case super closely. THANK YOU for bringing light to it!!!
The Christmas lights almost seem symbolic somehow. I love how invested you get in these cases. Every time I listen, it feels as though I'm hearing you talk about someone you personally know.
From what Ive noticed a gun changes the situation real quick! The smartest and strongest become victims with a gun pointed at them. So sad.
I wonder how the dog Ruby acts around Kenny. That would probably say alot. Obviously inadmissible in court though. Lol
If the dog was around when he was shouting at her it would react negatively, so that would tell you only that he wasn't trusted. I find it interesting that the dog ran from her boyfriend, did the dog just mistrust males?
@@TheSpasticAvenger was prbly just scared in general when the boyfriend came over
Finally a story I'm connected to. A good friend of mine was friends with her. So heartbreaking. I hope they get justice
Becca, do you know if the 3 men that killed her were charged yet? I’m guessing you probably know what actually happened to Egypt. I found the rest of the story online today. So sad that they were at the wrong house.
@@leahgolden7242 i know one of the three men's trial is set for Oct. 3rd. Not sure when the others are
@@Beccamonster hopefully soon…it’s been too long as is. Praying for her family and friends. 🙏🏼❤️
I live right down the street. I'm so glad you covered this! There's not enough coverage at all.
Oh my godddd that ending of Egypt singing that song has me SOBBING in public 😭 I didn’t realize the intro was her!! What a beautiful human being, it’s so heartbreaking that such good people are taken from this earth so tragically and needlessly. I hope they are able to put a close to this case soon. 💜
Hi Dannelle! Thanks again for your hard work. Can't wait to receive the information you've gathered.
I live in Michigan and I have NEVER heard of this case. Thank you Danelle.
I think the x lover hired a hitman! That's why he could tell in detail about his day, and that's why it didn't look like a crime of passion or personal! That's my guess.
Since no one seems to have heard a gun shot it's a safe bet but IMO wrong suspect.
EXACTLY!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽✊🏾
yup sounds like a execution no struggle no rape hands tied and shot in the head
But why would Egypt let in a strange person she didn't know late at night?
Could be,he probably resented her for dating other people when they were on a break
Its obvious how much work you put into your videos!! They are all so well put together and good. I know these families appreciate this from you! This is a sad story and I too remember this from crime watch daily. Certain cases stick w me and this was one of them!! You could tell how deeply Curtis cared about her. She was a gorgeous girl and deserves justice!!!! Prayers for this family. Keep up the good work in spreading awareness!!
Um okay lady!! I see your hard work at the gym 👏🏻👏🏻 looking healthy and glowing ❤️
In which room was she murdered in? That itself shows a lot - maybe it was one of her friends (that Kenny slept with) and she came to talk to her. If she was killed, for example, in her bedroom, it had to most likely be someone she trusted enough to let them further into her apartment.
The christmas lights might be explained with her moving and cleaning up or maybe the killer came to return the lights from when she had borrowed them to someone?
Also my first instinct was that she was tied up afterwards aswell! But maybe they pointed a gun at her and that's why she didn't show any signs of struggle.
In my opinion it could be Kenny but it could also be one of her friends (who had a thing with Kenny).
I also think it's a woman, I have a feeling about it
Thank you for pushing through and presenting this case for us to all learn about Egypt and the quest for justice on her behalf. This was really emotional!
Mother sounds like the type who trusts people and takes them at their word -- unfortunately though the world is not so kind in return.
Normally I wouldn't say something like this buuuut this makes me think of a few bartenders I've gotten to know. Pretty girls with hundreds and hundreds of Facebook with lots of creepy stalker-type issues going on all the time.
This is so weird about the Christmas lights - I remember seeing this "sexy" picture on Tumblr a few months ago that was like an erotic photoshoot using christmas lights.
How incredibly sad. They need a P.I. to put some pressure on this case
i love how i can make breakfast for my family while listening to your stories. so much information and presented so well, you’re really getting these victims names out there and it’s so great. keep it up💖
Very moving and respectful video, I pray the search for the truth will end very soon! Her family deserves that soo much! Brought tears to my eyes, and reminds me that everyone who is missing deserves those that will continue to push for answers! Keep up all the hard work Danelle!!
If someone had Egypt at gun point the entire time then I don't think their would have been a struggle, some people won't want any confrontation when the other person has a weapon. They just do what they're told.
Also what if Kenny is threatening Egypt's mother, so she said he doesn't seem like a violent suspect.
so proud of your determination and compassion with this and other cases! I promise I'll spread the word about Egypt! shared on facebook and twitter! ❤️
*_Good and very informative video.I recall reading about this story on a blog when it occurred.The mother is in total denial about Kenneth because the fact that he not only stalked her but she ONCE saw him shove her._*
I love your videos. They make me realize i have to live life to the fullest , i love you thank you.
TRUTH!
I wonder if the mom let Kenny watch the dog to to see how it would react.
that was my first thought.
Thank you for talking about the hard things Danelle 💕
I used to decorate with Christmas lights in my twenties year round
Two Cents I still use white lights for decoration sometimes. It’s certainly not the craziest thing I’ve ever heard.
Katie Trimue 😉
Danelle you’re a beautiful and amazing women. Please don’t ever change. Thank you for all you do! ❤️
I hear they have 2 arrests. I have been praying for justice. Egypt needs justice and the family needs closure most definitely! I pray this to be true.
I wonder if it was work related. Maybe even a female from work. Maybe an ex or current significant other of Kenny. Egypt may have felt comfortable letting a woman in to "talk" and was shot from behind and hands tied afterwards.
Women don't typically go for violent... err messy? murders. At least that's what I learned from Criminal Minds
address unknown or ui
@@archerart
Maybe this particular person was not acting alone. Plus there is an exception to every rule.

True maybe she saw something or someone thought she did?
Danielle & Stephanie uploading in the same hour?! I'm in heaven 😆😇 perfect way to end my long work day. I can enjoy listening to both of you while I do laundry!! 💜😀
When you said that Egypt's mom let Kenny dog sit Ruby I wonder if anyone saw how the dog reacted to him? Or would too much time have passed for the dog to react? I imagine the dog might remember the smell of someone who attacked their owner.
i personally think that it was kenny and it was an "if i cant have you nobody can" type of situation, but i could be so so wrong, just my theory
I believe either Kenny did it or he knows who did. It's possible he paid somebody to do it.
This whole thing is an absolute tear jerker. Gorgeous girl with a beautiful voice, and such a senseless, horrible thing to have her life taken away so young. Thoughts and prayers to her family and loved ones. :'(
Sis that hair 😍😍😍
The Iron Maiden it does!!! 🥰
I’m loving it! It suits her so well
Agreee! I want to know what she uses for her hair!
Absolute chills when we see it was her singing the intro.
Ahhh lump in my throat! 😭
Unlike a lot of the people that commented so far, I care more about the victim rather than how early I commented or if I was first. This was someone's daughter, best friend, girlfriend and how about her poor dog??? Completely heartbreaking. Praying for an arrest and conviction. Praying for peace and closure for her family and friends. Someone does know, I hope they see that they need to do the right thing for justice for Egypt. 💔
I love the enthusiasm you emit when you describe the people you are doing a video on. It really brings them to life : )
I’m from Michigan and there was no news stories about her murder which is super unheard of. The news around here covers murder cases in the while state.
I don't remember this either!
i live 15 minutes from van buren michigan and had only heard of this case briefly from my boyfriend at the time whose mom had known egypt. thank you for spreading the word. this is the first case of yours i’ve heard that has been close to home for me. God bless you and your family!
You did an awesome job with this video... yet again. Thank you for the information and dedication to your channel.
I went to school with Egypt. Such a wonderful girl to be around. Thank you so much for giving her story a chance. It's been almost 2 years and still no answers 😔
May her loving soul rest in peace.
Danelle, keep up with the amazing work! I completely agree that’s it’s crazy knowing that her killer is functioning and continuing with life as I’m typing this comment.
I live about 20 min from where this happened, and I know a few people who knew Egypt personally and say she was a ray of sunshine and would light up any room she entered. So incredibly sad and tragic; I pray her case gets solved soon. 🙏❤ Thank you for shedding light on Egypt.
Do u have a new camera? Or new lights? Anyways it LOOKS AMAZING!
Her hair is on FIRE! So pretty!
You really have a superb crime channel! Just found it yesterday and I’ve already binged about seven stories!!
I can see her having the Christmas lights sitting out. She might’ve been cleaning out a closet, making room for Kurtis’s things. This is such a heartbreaking story.
I actually suggested this case to you and I’m glad you’re finally covering it. I never met her personally but quite a few people I’m friends with knew her and I’m glad you’re keeping her story alive.
2022 UPDATE:
Egypt was home watching a movie when, according to court testimony, two men broke into her duplex, shot her to death, and wrapped her up with Christmas lights.
Those men, Timothy Eugene Moore, and Shandon Ray Groom, are headed to trial later this year. A third man, Shane Lamar Evans, has a competency hearing this summer.
Moore is charged with first-degree murder, felony murder, and first-degree home invasion, as well as four counts of felony firearm. Groom is charged with first-degree murder, felony murder, and first-degree home invasion, and three counts of felony firearm. Evans is charged with felony murder and first-degree home invasion.
According to court testimony, Evans did maintenance at the duplex where Covington lived, and he knew that her neighbor's home would be empty that weekend because the man was at Electric Forest music festival.
That man kept marijuana in his home, was a licensed caregiver, and had talked about it on local programs, according to court testimony. His home had been burglarized prior to Covington’s murder and marijuana had been stolen.
Evans told investigators that he was with his brother and cousin when they wanted weed, so they decided to go steal some from the empty duplex.
Evans said he drove by the home and pointed out which one was the correct one. Moore, Groom, and another person were allegedly in a truck behind him.
Evans also claimed he explained which door the men needed to enter.
However, Groom and Moore are accused of entering the wrong side of the duplex, and found Covington watching a movie.
"We know that they were in this home for about four or five minutes. While they were in the home, Miss Covington was bound in Christmas lights, and they took a cushion off a couch and put it over her head when they shot her in the head," said Victoria Shackelford, the assistant prosecuting attorney in Wayne County.
In an interview, Evans said Moore texted him, "Wrong door." Evans said he didn't remember replying to the text and claimed he found out about Covington's death when he saw a news report.
While Evans didn't go in the house, he faces felony murder, a charge that is used if someone dies during the commission of a felony, in this case - home invasion.
It was initially believed that Covington knew who killed her, and Van Buren police named an ex-boyfriend as a person of interest. However, more than three years passed with no arrests.
Her family pushed for Michigan State Police to handle the investigation, and in August 2020, MSP took over.
Just a few months later, in November 2020, Evans and Moore were arrested. Groom was taken into custody in December 2020.
Cell phone records and GPS locations were used to place Evans, Moore, and Groom at the scene of the crime.
Prosecutors said the men also stole Covington’s cell phone, which pinged to the same location as their phones before they threw it away.
They’re still awaiting trial as of September 2022.
Wow, thanks for the update!
Great video! Love that you added a clip of her singing in the intro:)
I just finished watching the True Crime Daily videos of this case and it makes me tear up thinking about how her boyfriend had to find her, and to listen to him talk about her, def shows how much he LOVES HER! and also shows how big the Hole in his heart is!!
R.I.P Beautifulq Angel!💜💜
This one is so heartbreaking. You did an amazing job telling her story.
I got my ass beat by an ex and never told my mom. He acted like a perfect gentleman around her. The mom is sadly in denial. She doesn't want to believe he was hurting her daughter without her knowing it.
hi there! new subscriber. i came here via cayleigh elise’s mini shoutout on her goodbye video
i am sad to see her go but i’m glad she gave a shoutout to others
you seem like you genuinely care as well
thank you for giving a voice to those who are no longer here or receiving the coverage they need 💙
i would be interested to know where kenny's phone pinged when he was sending the good morning text and subsequent worried texts
You have so much empathy for others, its one of the things I love the most about you!
She mightn't have let her killer in per-say, it's after 10pm the door bell rings or there's a knock on the door, Ruby runs to the door barks, wags tail, indicating she knows the person, Egypt opens the door, the killer puts a gun into her face, she backs up and he enters the home.
She was found lying in fetal position which indicates to me, she was told to knell down, she was shot in the back of the head which is an execution, but the trajectory of the bullet will determine that hopefully at a trial. The killer then or while she was knelling tied her hands behind her with the Christmas lights, which were more likely in the room she died in as she was moving items.
Her biological Mother's attitude to the POI is worrying to say the least.
so beyond happy i ran into this video. this is one of my older sister dearest friends & not enough people have talked about her case:( we want justice for her so badly!
This is so sad... especially because I live not even 30 minutes from where this happened and have never heard one thing about this case 😔
Thank You for your hard work on this video and sharing Egypt's story. This is such a sad story 😔😔💔
For anyone watching this in 2021 it turns out she was murdered by three men who mistakenly broke into her house instead of her neighbors house. They were intending to steal drugs as the neighbor was a dealer and he was away that night. They broke into the wrong house and weren’t expecting anyone to be there and shot Egypt as she sat on her couch watching a movie. All three of them were at the house for about 4/5 minutes they were arrested in November 2020 and are all facing charges including first degree murder, first degree home invasion, felony murder and felony with a firearm!
Hopefully Egypt gets her justice and these men are locked up for a long long time
Thank you for this update!
So sad
I always appreciate the work you put into your videos, thank you for covering this case !
You can tell that you put your all into each and every case. You're a beautiful soul 💗💗
Such a heartbreaking case. You're so great a what you do! Thank you for taking the time on this channel to bring awareness to those of us who might never have heard about these important situations!
BTW: Your hair is gorgeous.
Wow wow wow, she worked where I live and this was a big deal and then just disappeared. No one seems to have any idea what happened and no one talks about it anymore.
to add to this, she was a good friend of someone I’ve known for my whole life. her death had a huge and painful impact.
He was really happy to see that her case was still being talked about.
I'm from the area and this video is the first time I've seen her story.
Thank you for speaking for people who can't and not letting victims be forgotten.
Everytime I see your face in my subscriptions I get so excited! Sending you my love ❤️
I haven’t been back to this channel in months, but I love your new (?) hair! Thank you for continuing to cover cases.
I am binge watching your videos.. it looks like her killers were just arrested in 2020!! It was a home invasion 😔 and it was meant to be a robbery of the neighbors! She was in fear for damn good reason
Her mom was exactly right the whole time...Egypt didn't feel safe because of the drug environment right next door to her. And that lead to her death. So heartbreaking.
Thank you for bringing my sisters case back into the light.
