Makes sense.
Not.

Husband did it of course. I don’t think you should be living with a person you’re divorcing and meanwhile dating others. Very dangerous situation
James L : So absolutely true. No way this is an acceptable form of living together under these circumstances. Herad of quite a few crimes like these under hte exact same living conditions after separation.
Agreed!
Asking him to not go on the family cruise so that her new boyfriend can go must have been a sting as well. What are these women thinking?
It is..my brother went through it..went through a nasty divorce both there lawyers advised neither of them to move out..so they lived in the same house with the three kids until it was settled..luckily he got back with his first wife his highscool sweetheart and married again xo
@@robs1873 and what is a hor wive
That daughter is the bravest young lady i've ever seen, i cannot fathom the strength she has within her to be able to do that interview. My heart goes out to you.
Message to the older daughter, you're an amazing young lady for stepping up and becoming an adult figure, well done and stay strong.
She wasn't unbiased enough, she is an Adult after all.
@Hamilton Jet Sport Association why you think that is?
@@hamiltonjetsportassociatio4407 It's her father and children always see their parents in a different light than you would a spouse or a significant other. You can tell that this really hurt her to find out that her dad was capable of doing this. It would break anyone.
@@littlebottleofink Fair comment
Absolutely!
I heavy cried when Madden said he would take care of his little sister. What a strong little boy💔 I pray for those kids
*who else knew immediately it was the ex husband? I knew damn well the uncle had nothing to do with it*
Yeah! I hate how they blame the uncle because he was “too emotional and got in the way”. He raised crystal so he was basically her father. He was clearly so distraught over her disappearence. He probably didnt even realise that he was getting “in the way” because he was so desparate to find her. And I find it disgusting that the detective shamed him for showing human emotions
@@ifjchsiwocjcjs4378 thank you! You said what I was thinking, I hated they even mentioned the Uncle he is his like Father for goodness sake
Into the video just 2mins and I knew.
Exactly. I knew immediately that the ex lost control & killed her. It’s so weird that the police were divided on this issue. The ex had motive, no one else.
✋️
Imagine being an uncle who probably felt for years like he couldn't let down his deceased brother, feeling as though he failed by not being able to protect her and then being treated that way for not wanting to let down his deceased brother again and now deceased niece. 😔
Horrendous how they classified him as a suspect just for showing grief and wanting to find his niece.
Right?!? I would not even think he did it. He raised her come on…that’s like her father
That sorry DA had the nerve to try to blame the uncle because he kept trying to get the investigation going
@@mikerivera7509 Yeah, it was so toxic the way they made an excuse by saying that this is not a game and he was acting like it was. Like there was no remorse for the way he was treated. Sounded more like narcissist who couldn't admit that they were wrong and needed to apologize. Smdh 😤
@@floram.rosariopomales9104 that DA needs to be fired
His daughter was so well spoken. When her voice finally broke .. that was so heartbreaking.
…what. She was very sweet and I feel for her but she was most definitely NOT well-spoken or articulate. There were fifty ‘likes’ in one sentence. She spoke just like most genZ do- poorly. I don’t mean to be sassy or anything, I’m just surprised that standards have gotten so low now that this would be considered well-spoken, ya know? It most definitely is not. ✌🏻🤗🤗
@@krisuler7734what are you smoking? She didn’t do all that. Yeah, she said like in a five word sentence. But that’s it.
Probably a great bartender.
What a well spoken and pretty girl. God bless her😔
😝😝😝
Imagine loving someone so much that when they go missing, you are "so emotional" and call the police and then take it upon yourself to search --- only to be told that "since you're so worried... You must be guilty..." lord. If my kid went missing, I would be sleeping on the steps of the police station until they threw me in jail for trespassing.
The little boy telling his little sister he will always take care of her...so touching. I hope the older sister stays in contact with her little siblings, they need her.
First time i've cried because of a youtube video
K'i
So do I!
All men have sinned against God,
but so God loved this world that he gave Jesus
as a perfect sin offering, so we would have
forgiveness of sins and eternal life.
So read the New Testament, believe in Jesus
Repent and start loving God and obeying Him.
Whoever believes in Jesus and obeys the Word of God,
shall not perish, but have eternal life.
Clearly, there is more to the story if they are with 'a family friend' and not her uncle or aunt. I like you hope their sister can have a positive relationship with them.
What’s crazy is they didn’t suspect the husband bc he was “nice” but suspected the Uncle bc he cared so much and the boyfriend who cried missing her. Wtf ‼️
Exactly!
The IQ level requirement for being a cop isn't very high.
I right away suspected the ex husband. She was the provider and he was a loser.
right holy fawk
That's why you never talk to a cop without an attorney. Their hunches and lie detectors are worthless.
I have to give the Aunt huge credit for telling the kids the full truth and being clear on what happened.
It was inappropriate what she told those kiddos, only for her hate, she traumatized them more, it was not right.
If she had made some lie then they learn the truth in the future it would've wrecked them and the relationship with the aunt.
I feel so bad for her uncle who raised her like she was his daughter from when she was little. Of course he was going to be super worried about her and emotional about it. Poor guy. :(
To be fair his actions when being interviewed, it felt like he was acting. 😂
I love how derogatory the district attorney was regarding her description of the private investigator that the family hired to help in the search. It seems quite ignorant to ignore the plethora of police failures during investigations that result in perpetrators going free. If my family member went missing and had the funds to hire a PI just in case they pick up something in the investigation that the police missed I would hire one.
They seem real bitter.
It was an obvious sign right off the bat that the uncle and boyfriend offered up a reward and the ex-husband did not.
You are exactly correct. This family saw that the investigation wasn't as aggressive as it should've been...in their opinion. They did all that they could to find her. The FAMILY found her vehicle!!!For the DA to be so unprofessional in the media is no surprise. Harris & Chambers County, TX. Enough said. So tragic.
@@djholliday5132 There was a hurricane going on. There were thousands of stranded cars, and people needed to be rescued from drowning.
@@merryhunt9153 I'm from Baytown, TX. Born & raised. I lived through Hurricane Harvey myself. The family did the right thing by doing all they could & not fully depending on law enforcement. This investigation lasted way longer than the flooding. I remember this. It lasted a long time. You can't put all of your faith in law enforcement when you have a missing loved one. You have to hit the pavement. Chambers County is very small & country AF. I wouldn't depend on them if it were my family member.
That’s crazy that showing CONCERN over his beloved niece cause him to become a suspect! Guess he should’ve been “less emotional” over a loved one going missing and ending up dead….wow. What an injustice period.
yea then they would have said he was guilty because he was emotionless
@@badazzbarbiePOV great point!
Remember they said he kept inserting himself into the investigation. Hiring the investigator to go through her townhouse.
Sometimes criminals do that.
Yeah, I knew he was innocent from the beginning...... Many uncles get a bad rap in situations like this...
Exactly plus he was more of a father/Uncle figure having brought her up
Poor uncle. So sad. He clearly wanted her found asap and did everything he could to find her. He is such a loving uncle. I would want my family to investigate. No one just relies on police. Police take forever sometimes
“This isn’t a game to us.” This DA made me laugh. Their whole reasoning for suspecting the uncle looked like a game to me. “He made a lot of noise.” Wait…🤔 As a family member, what are you supposed to do?!? You DAMN RIGHT I’m gonna hire a PI to do your job and hope you would understand the extra help. We are not obligated to ONLY let law enforcement work to find missing people. Society has been let down too many times for them to find this offensive.
It’s normal for an innocent parent and he was a step parent to make ‘noise’. Guilty people don’t make noise, they don’t ask how the investigation is going
I agree. The DA gave me a lot of "ego insecurity" vibes.
It is a woman who spoke, just ignore it; otherwise you will only have a headache.
The Da and sheriff owe the uncle an apology for going off on him because he was a grieving uncle.
@@abej4507 no need for the misogyny
I feel so, so, so sorry for the uncle who loved his niece so much and was worried about her. So much so, that law enforcement thought he was suspect. God bless the uncle and please make Steve pay with his life. Thank goodness, the state took his kids to protect them.
so true.. God bless the detectives who scheduled those babies to be rescued that night.
U are realy also a sweet girl. But hi will not give the wife hardcore sex. Hi whant him to not be so nice . So that way she now dead?
Women act like men don’t have feelings. Wow such is life.
She is a woman that's why she said stupid things. Don't be upset honey
He basically raised her and they treated him like a random
Imagine suspecting the uncle for being “emotional” because he’s desperate to find his relative. 😒Cops…
Im an aunt 7x over and I’d take a bullet for any one of them. I had some uncles who would have done anything for me! I am desperately afraid of dogs but I ran in between a charging snarling dog and my nephews once.
Hard to believe the uncle was ever even considered a suspect.
He loved her so much too. 😢
You care about someone = "very suspect" , not caring "very suspect".
Main suspect = police
Are y’all really that arrogant that you think you know better than cops who investigate crimes like this for a living that someone acting that way cannot possibly be a suspect? Cops KNOW that it is not uncommon for the perpetrator to stick close to the investigation and really involve themselves! That’s why they began to suspect him. There are so many cases of people -usually the spouse- being very outwardly emotional over their partner being missing or murdered and frequently doing emotional interviews with the press or organizing searches and they end up being GUILTY. They were doing their job and they were right to not overlook the uncle until the evidence pointed elsewhere.
@@cruisepaige My mother had 3 sisters who would have done ANYTHING for me. And did. I adored them.
His older daughter broke my heart. Kudos to her deceased mother who raised her.. her husband is a vicious animal...
Im so sorry for the daughter she seems as a genuine person i hope she stays strong... and i hope the other kids stay safe..
I felt so bad for his older daughter who had to explain how she felt realizing her father did it and her world falling apart.. I literally teared up for her she seems like an angel of a person that is dealing with this situation
I know same that’s so freaking sad
I’m actually so happy they brought her on. You don’t really think of the family of the murderer and how this impacts them unless you hear it directly from them. Her interview was extremely impactful for me.
i didnt…shes way too forgiving of her pathetic dad
@@jogaleone7224 and she still thinks the victim was going to remarry her dad?? 😮💨 she's an apologist
@@elizabethr4107 maybe she just had a father figure. he obviously hated the wife and didn't want her as an example of sort. not excusing his actions, but she seems to be very provocative to begin with. he was just her demise as far as match up goes. sniff out the crazy and defend yourself. you never know nowadays.
The insult to injury of murderers placing the deceased in trash bags and leaving them on the side of the road is a grim thing that enrages me every time I listen to a true crime case. I know I shouldn’t underestimate someone who takes the life of another, but to put another human being in a trash bag really upsets me more than words can explain. So horrible.
I agree. The whole thing of I didn't mean to, and wish I could take it back just doesn't fly when you put a bag over their face and then in a trash bag.
@annac I know… it’s so disheartening… That’s a human life and they just put them in a garbage bag and dump them off like they’re just trash!!?? It’s so demeaning… just because they think the person is trash doesn’t mean the whole rest of the world agrees because we don’t!
she was an adulterer
she deserved it.
It’s convenience and less suspicious, people will think you’re just taking out trash.
I love how the law enforcement in this episode don’t take a private investigator seriously yet in another 48 hours episode a private investigator solves the whole damn case!
The uncle, he’s really a kind caring person. Thank God for kindness in this world. Its so rare.
I feel for his older daughter.... She seems like such an awesome, solid, young lady
Can you imagine your dad telling you that he murdered someone
Kind of choked me up when she told her side of her dad being taken away after confessing, poor girl.
Agree. And She looks a lot like the victim!
Yeah the oldest daughter... I feel for her.
So sad that she defended him until he told her about knowing where he put his ex-wife’s body.
"He loved her so much, it was almost an obsessive sort of controlling love"
🤔 That's not love, that's selfishly viewing another as a possession.
💯👏
✔️
FOR REAL! Big difference between lover/spouse, and chattel. I had a similar marriage. Had to ESCAPE!
Controlling someone means you don’t love them at all. It’s all about what the controller wants with no concern for the other person.
@Cali Yes. People who have Narcissistic and Antisocial Personality Disorders are very dangerous to other people. They are never suitable for anyone to be in a relationship with. It’s very unfortunate when you’re born into a family with parents who have the disorder like I did. It grooms the child to accept the same type of behavior from others when they go out into the world.
This episode was done so well! I was tearing up at the end. Both for the older daughter, and for the kids - the bear hugs to the detectives and hugging each other.
My aunt was killed by a man who couldn't handle being left. Never turn your back on an emotional man!
😂😂😂😂
It’s true.
My condolences for your Aunt. ✨
The uncle was an easy target for incompetent police. Bless his heart.
100% agree.
@James Trower your right. Instead of looking for evidence I who did it.
Absolutely agree. The uncle had raised her from the young age of 11 when both of her parents died. Basically they didn’t treat him as the father that raised her. Disgusting really, that poor man was broken.
I felt so badly for the uncle. On the other hand you have to understand how police have to work these cases. They have to look at everyone close to the victim who might have the slightest motive and play out the scenarios amongst a group to see what makes sense. It's really the only way to do it. Otherwise they would have directed all their attention to the ex-husband from the beginning and it would have been seen as railroading.
Right? Once the DA said they had no business hiring a private detective, I thought the same. Most times the only reason LE doesn't just drop the case is because of families fighting to keep them looking and the case open.
His daughter could not possibly know what her father was like in a relationship. You just don’t understand the complexities of manipulation between spouses that results in manipulation of kids. My mother told me her version of events daily. It took me a long time to work out that maybe my dad had a different experience of events.
Exactly, his story that she had multiple affairs but he still loved her is not believable.
You must have an awsome mum. Wish she could teach me how to explain my views on our events so my kids could eventually understand why things happened, happen in our lives
Excatly
Facts! I was 40 when I learned my mom and dads “true state” of affairs🤔……….a mess!
1correnthians 13 is the LOVE chapter in the bible
This story is breathtaking. Despite the tragedy, the testimony of the kid's reaction to the loss of their parents is so brutally emotional and humanizing. This story also proves there is hope, even in the most absolute emptiness. The muderer's daughter is so sweet and strong. She carries so much on her shoulders. She accidentally finds herself in a situation where besides finding out that your father murdered someone, she also feels responsible for giving back to her step-siblings the love and caring of a mother and a father. God will have a place for you. Can only wish them a long, happy and quiet life.
They are her half siblings, not step.
😊
It sickens me when a parent does what their father did and never thought about what he was doing to his children ,it was all about himself and what he wanted I hope these 3 children will be alright and go on to have a wonderful life despite what their cruel father did .I'm so sorry for the loss of their Mother and their father being in prison and I pray for all 3 of those children. How strong they seem to be ,bless them and the rest of the family and friends .
Lets us hope they will never do what their parents did.
Steve not only murdered Crystal, he hurt SO many people. His kids don't have a mother OR father, now, and his older daughter (who initially believed him) will always be torn up about what her father did. God Bless those kids. RIP Crystal.
Yeah too bad Crystal didn’t make better choices in her life she would be alive right now
@@RainsWorldVegasSlots her ex-husband is the one who should’ve made a better choice… not strangling his ex
Steve’s beautiful daughter being so devastated and heartbroken. A lovely young woman. I hope she has been able to put this as far behind her as possible and go straight forward because she deserves it!
She deserves it other than being so stupid, ignorant, and blind. Anybody could have seen from a mile away that he did it.
Absolutely
You can never put that behind you.
I kinda feel like his daughter was intentionally trying to make her look like the crazy one. I’m betting it was only HIM that was crazy.
it's kinda confused me since she looks A LOT like her stepmother...
When the daughter cried after finding out the truth, I cried 😥
Get your hormones checked, mate.
@@Gonken88 I'm a man, what do you want?
That oldest step-daughter is an angel and a hero all wrapped in one.
As a criminal Justice student this makes me mad for the simple reason he couldn’t let go off her. It’s unfair that he thought of himself before his children who need their mother 😔
Not making any excuses, but as a criminal justice student I hope you are aware that a huge contributing factor in many of these stories is that the fathers know they will most likely now be losing their children very shortly via the courts handing custody to the mothers. It is an absolutely devastating prospect to face at a time of already being emotionally broken by the ending of a relationship, many cannot handle that reality that is about to consume them.
@@aqwfervfgrt4so you'd rather leave your kids parentless than see them live with the mother? That sounds selfish and clearly shows no love for the kids
How does it feel to waste so much money on a useless degree?
Maybe you should switch to being a psych major and then it will make sense to you. you are in the wrong profession to understand simple emotional effects
Malignant narcissism 101.
The fact that her close uncle-father advocating for her location singled a problem is crazy. Of course, he's going to make a big thing of it.
but thats the da for you
I was thinking the exact thing!!
That’s Texas 😂😂
Think about how sorry that DA and the keystone cops are with that statement
She is a weird sheriff... It's obvious both the uncle and boyfriend had every right not to trust the sheriff's team
This always hits me so hard cause I knew her & she really was an angel on earth! She was my flight attendant trainer when I got hired and pined my wings on me! So beautiful inside and out! So kind & just one of the best humans I’ve had the privilege to know😭
she was a cheater lol good riddance
@@feederdiaries4862 wow, what a horrible lie to say about a stranger…
@@Alex-rh7ej um, it says it right in this episode she was cheating with multiple people during their one year marriage... if the state actually did something to right these types of wrongs, perhaps MAnY kids would still have at least one parent in their lives
@@feederdiaries4862 their marriage lasted 10yrs, if something did happen in year 1, it’s kinda irrelevant to what happened here
@@Alex-rh7ej your right, it was ten years, but she had affairs throughout it. People like that... wow. Not okay, not okay at all.
How an able bodied man depends on a wife financially is beyond me!
What beautiful eyes she had - wow. I am also impressed by his oldest daughter - she handled that really well. Hopefully all siblings will recover and heal from all the trauma they went through.
The relationship started out rocky but let's have kids together because that always solves everything....
Stories like this go to show you how easy it is for police to be fixated on the wrong person. How easy it could have been for them to accuse the wrong man. If they didn't have the video of the husband, then they could have blamed the uncle or bf and made up a scenario of how they did it. It is a scary situation to be a part of.
At least they waited and kept discussing with open minds, lots of them don't
The sad thing is that this kind of shoddy police is more the rule than the exception
I knew it was the ex husband before it even started.
@@blessedmwsmom ah, you'd make a perfect cop with your preconceived guessing.
@@tstieber they didn’t wait bc they were actually looking at all avenues. They waited bc they couldn’t prove he did it. They needed him to confess.
This teen(?) girl taking the responsibility for her younger siblings has my biggest respect
Truly heartbreaking. Great compassionate work by all law enforcement here under extreme circumstances
I’m impressed that they were able to eventually find the evidence to convict the ex husband during and after a big storm.
This case is beyond heartbreaking. The children lost so much due to the selfishness of their father. May God bless them.
Daughter said it best. They were toxic for each other. Both of them made bad choices seems to me. Not that she deserved to die. Nope. But she has a measure of responsibility being an adult. Flaunting being with other men rubbing it in wasn’t smart.
I know, in these cases all the killer spouse does is ensure their children will be virtual orphan’s, with the one parent dead ant the other in prison.
I will never understand that. The kids wind up losing the most, as they lose both parents.

The oldest daughter is an inspiration.
I remember hearing about her being missing and thinking that it was the husband. He was just acting weird. The story is heartbreaking.
The suggestion by law enforcement that the family interfered heavily with the investigation initially and then turned around to ask the family to help with the investigation is crazy…
The family had to find the car for the police.
Some Texas law enforcement think they’re Walker Texas Ranger and then realize without actually admitting it that they’re egotistical morons.
Imagine being a suspect because your a concerned uncle
It's literally disgusting
The "ex" husband was the Only suspect from day 1. Law enforcement and Detectives frustrate me in so many ways.
It's frustrating that they want to make sure they get the right f person by following all leads and suspects? Or is it frustrating that they showed up everyday, to search and work this case, even after their personal homes have been destroyed? Hard person to please, I guess 🤷🏻♀️
@@salmonjanet it’s frustrating because the ex husband and wife sharing a house. He should have been suspect #1

Great introduction. I started following you during the Alex Murdaugh trial and, from there, to the Terry Sanderson vs. Gwyneth Paltrow trial. You have a fantastic sense of humor and dry wit. Keep it coming...
Thank you!😄
The end brought tears to my eyes.
I must admit, I got a little choked up when the children hugged.
The level of selfishness in these cases truly amazes me.
No consideration for the children - it's all about THEIR feelings 😡
You just explained the entire reason for this tragedy, selfishness! Not only on the husband's part, but the wife as well. I'm notcat all blaming the victim, because no matter what no one has the right to take a life under any circumstances other than self defense, but she should have considered being more discreet about her new relationship around her ex-husband especially since she knew he wasn't right in the mind, and that she was staying with him. We can't always live how we want, especially when there are children to consider!
Bingo!! This is so common nowadays.
Especially with black women. Its sad
I agree that’s true of their father. I don’t know much about their late mother, sadly. 😞
@@guerralg63 its all on the husband the wife was too nice. Thats not crime steve is a coward and a monster.
@Zib Ndix I'm not sure what your point is, but there's nothing wrong with being discreet and cautious. The problem with people today is that think it's their right to say and do whatever they want and never think about how it may affect others and the consequences. If you know that your Ex has mental or emotional issues, perhaps it would be best to not expose your personal life to them. Id rather be discreet and cautious and be alive, than to let expose my business to everyone knowing I have an unstable jealous Ex, and end up hurt or worse.
Ever since social media, people have forgotten the benefit of discretion and anonymity.
She was such a pretty woman. Glad they arrested her killer. Sad for her children. No one won now the children have neither parent.
She looks like jessica simpson
I feel so terribly sad for the children. So many lives ripped apart by jealousy and selfishness. Rest in peace Crystal ✝️
My heart melts for the 2 innocent children 😢... i wish them well and may they live their lives full of love for one another.

YOU HAVE A GREAT HEART.
As someone who was raised in a chaotic environment (was medical stuff, it wasn't anyone's fault) I had that mentality at the age of 7, its entirely possible if their home life wasn't great or if there were a lot of stressful and anxiety inducing situations happening around them
my heart goes out to his grown daughter, as well as to the younger two children...
Home
😊
So sad. I hear stories like this and they terrify me. I have a restraining order on my ex husband and am terrified of him coming after me and our kids (who I have full custody of). His own family is afraid for my safety as well. Constantly looking over my shoulder is a hard way to live
It's sad I had to live like that for a couple years because of my ex. Going to a d.v. shelter and him finding me and police not taking him out my home although I had a restraining order. I was a prisoner in my own home. I was close to being on an episode of snapped because I was rapidly losing hope. I was numb to the abuse and the cops not doing anything all because they prove a restraining order is nothing but a piece of paper. Thank God for family coming by when things were happening and I haven't looked back since
@eveliscamareno5358 hope you are doing well today! 🙏
who else thinks this is so very sad for the kids?
I dated a guy briefly that was too obsessed with me from the get-go. When they said he would brush her hair if she wanted him to I immediately thought of him. I had to break it off because he literally wanted to spend every minute outside of work with me and that is a HUGE red flag for anyone. Very unnerving for your partner to not have any identity outside of the relationship.
Oh sorry to hear that. There were no red flags before you started dating him?
@@eat_pray_love. No, I did not get too know him well until the first few weeks and that's when I realized I was just not that into him and he was way more into me than I was him. Broke it off. He just wanted someone to love and to love him, but it was not me. Nice guy, but that kind of dependence is not for me.

@@PamelaLaForestFirst few weeks isn't really that crazy lol. I mean alot of dates go south after a few weeks
Autonomy! Everyone need autonomy outside of their relationship.... and I mean EVERYONE!
When she told the ex husband that he can't come on the family vacation anymore and that she is taking her new boyfriend with their family instead....I felt like he did it immediately.
@@delynnaycock9534 She was stringing the ex along and payed the ultimate price.
@@delynnaycock9534 And in so many of these types of relationships, the guy is controlling and abusive and that's what drives the woman away. Then he can't understand why she wants to leave. From what was said around 7:53, it sounds like he was a narcissist (for those who are familiar with narcissistic abuse) - the idolizing/putting on a pedestal and subsequent devaluing, etc.
Pretty woman , very pretty indeed. when you are pretty many guys would want to have you but it's dangerous because once you rejected them its hard for them to just let go. I have a feeling that the ex husband tried his best to accept the end of marriage or her new relationship but deep inside he is hurting . Many sleepless night for the ex husband everytime the ex wife spent time with her new bf. How does it feel to be rejected by the person you loved the most? It's easy to say , just let her go but when you are in love with someone it ain't easy.
Yeah I thought the same .. i don’t think he could watch her with another man .
Blessings to those poor kids❤
Wow. That Hog D.A is repellent. Being mean to the Uncle because he is frantic with worry over his niece.
Thank you 48 for the full episodes! Very much appreciated. 👍👍👍 You rock.
Extremely thankful! I'm addicted to these.
Divorce is the most dangerous moment for everyone involved. There are thousands of these cases that women/wives, particularly should learn not to stay within vicinity of soon to be ex husband. No amount of "friendly" and "he was never violent before" can stop a frustrated man once his ego has been beaten to pulp. Ladies beware. Think about your children.
And maybe try and avoid “beating their ego into a pulp” smh
So true! It does not matter if someone has never hurt a fly before. They are still capable of one day snapping. Everyone in the world be careful, not just females.
@@nestoguevera1857 Men do that to themselves. Do you think that if every woman who felt her ego was beaten to a pulp killed the man responsible it would be okay? There would be a lot of dead men, lots. Men are so fragile and emotional, it's crazy that they think they are the tougher sex.
@@tracymonroe6001 Her actions were deplorable, she invited her new man on a vacation with her husband and kids. Even the new guy tried to use logic to reason with her saying that it wouldn’t be a good idea, but she wanted to have her cake and eat it too. when the new guy refused, she in turn told the FATHER of the kids not to come. I’m not excusing the husbands actions, but if the shoe was on the other foot and a guy asked his new gf to come out with his ex wife (whom he was still living with!) and kids it would surely be classified as “emotional” or “mental” abuse, and he would be labeled a POS. He didn’t do that to himself.
@@nestoguevera1857 I agree, she was a player.
So everyone was a suspect initially, but that is how a good thorough investigation should be. At the end of the day they got the right guy. My hat's off to the older daughter. So mature and brave to agree to be interviewed for this episode. I can only imagine what she went through when the killer confessed to her not in so many clear words that he had killed the mother of his two young children!!
I love these detective who did it type shows.👍
This is beyond heartbreaking it’s so sad to think those babies have lost their parents. I pray for peace for the 3 children.
Lol... Pretty sure you already said this already Fosturd from Rockford 🤡 you say it about every case 😂😂
Their parents were bad for them. It's probably good that the children are raised by someone else.
Well, they aren't exactly "babies," but yes, it is beyond heartbreaking.
This is exactly why I didnt stay in the house as my ex husband when I went through my divorce and had a new boyfriend as well. Something told me he would not be safe to be around in that type of situation. Three kids lost everything due to one mans selfishness.
Well being a ho3 does sometimes get you clipped
@@SaintSkanderbegus . IDGAF cuz ive been with him for 10 years now.
Cus of his selfishness? She also had affairs so it was both
Yeah it's basically a cuck situation at that point
@@Blackcrow350 nobody deserves to die because of infidelity.
My heart breaks for his daughter. She’s so brave. Amazing soul
This is such a heart ❤️ wrenching story.
The oldest daughter is such an amazingly great young lady!
I have two daughters of my own and I can’t imagine what all three of the kids have to live through.
😢
She was gorgeous. What a terrible loss of life for her and her kids. And for *his* daughter, as well. Absolutely heartbreaking.
I feel so much for his daughter. You could tell he was her hero 😞 It must have shattered her to realize what he did. I hope she’s doing all right. 🙏🏻
I’m so thankful she’s involved in the kids’ lives. I hope they can all find healing.
@@rocketta.chique5761 there is nothing wrong with his daughter - she is alive and well.
Would this story have been covered by both the Weather Channel and CBS if the lady was fat, ugly and lived in a trailer park? Of course not. Just look at nearly all the photos of her in "glamor shot" and sexy poses here.
@@bambinaforever1402 do you not get there would be emotional damage? The children lost their mother, and his daughter lost her as well.... Rocketta chique explained to you that her dad was a hero in her life...can you imagine finding out your parent is a monster and sent away because of that? Dumb comment...
This is what could happen to a 304. She was cheating on her husband. Then still living with him dating and 304ing another man. Like what do you think will happen? Seriously.
They should of never gotten married.
The eldest daughter is a sweetheart. God bless her
The sheriff has a calling to save indeed. His heart is so pure and so much love and compassion. God bless you sir.
Investigators going after her sweet uncle who was obviously upset for good reason is frustrating to me 😢
Wow. His oldest daughter. What a trooper. I can't even imagine.
I’m so heartbroken for that poor lady. Those beautiful children. Bless them and I hope they take care of each other. All the best ❤❤❤
I'm not. What was she doing sleeping with another man, while living with her ex-husband. Talk about rubbing it in his face. No wonder why he snapped. I bet she was type to have cheated on him while she was out of town as well. He should have only been charged with the crime of passion law they have in Texas. Still if I was the ex-husband, I would have let her go on with her life of slutdom. He could have had a younger more attractive trade up. His ex-wife had already hit the wall, so let some other dude deal with her selfish stale smelling arse.
The uncle adopted her at age 11. Let’s make it perfectly clear that’s her dad. That man was distraught not guilty. It’s clear it was the ex husband.
That’s so sad to see the daughter in so much denial about her dad😢
Sad but understandable. She shouldn't be dissed for that
@@RichMcc she needs lots of therapy. Here way of describing the serious events is so casual and almost happy. Working at a bar, raspy voice it’s like not for me.

Going after the uncle is infuriating. How many brain cells does it take to understand an ex-husband still living with a hot, successful, ex-wife who is happily dating others is your guy?
You're missing the point. These are the keystone cops and also rampant shoddy police work is the norm today
When will people understand that these cases are presented in a way to make them more suspenseful for the purposes of entertainment. It's a TV show! In reality, they may have considered the uncle as a person of interest for all of 5 minutes.
@@dollciita lollll so true
Bingo 🎯
@@dollciitaat the very least they had him listed as a person of unrest and it appears that they interrogated him. It's more the vibe and feel of the way that they were talking about him - they weren't acting! Condescending at the absolute very least, unkind and insensitive to be sure
My heart goes out to the daughter! God Bless You And Your Family. So sorry for your loss ❤❤🙏🙏
Prayers for the children truly sad may God bless you and give you the strength you will need through your journey in life.
Oh my gosh, that had me in tears at the end! That was so deep when the detective was saying “that’s the moment you realize the impact on children that family violence has.” So sad, innocent children. 😢 🙏🏼🙏🏼 I’m rooting for them!
No entity has destroyed more lives than the police!
Those poor kids.. big sister is very strong. ❤
Wish I had a loving uncle like hers 😢, may her soul rest in peace 🕊
Me too.
😭
My heart breaks for the two littles and their older sister. Their dad is a very selfish man. This situation is way more than any child should have to deal with. I'm not sure why they're no longer with their aunt and now with a family friend but I hope they're happy and healthy and I hope all 3 kids live amazing lives ❤ God be with them all.
The woman who got killed was selfish too. Why date a new guy when you're still living in the same house as your x husband?
When my 2nd wife divorced me I was sad heartbroken lost and depressed. But my goodness I not once ever thought to take the life of the mother of my children!
Such a sad and heartbreaking story. The daughter is such a strong girl.
A very fine line between love and hate
She was gorgeous 🤦🏼♀️ Them kids lost both parents, that's sad!!!
The kids break my heart. Knowing that the oldest has to relive the moment that her dad confessed to her in the way he did and knowing that the little ones and her will always have a reminder because of the internet. I’ll keep the 3 in my prayers always 🙏🙏
This is why someone I know divorced her husband after 6years of seperation- the doctor told her if he Strangled you then because of his mental issues he will get away with it- she made the right choice. Even he himself told their children it was the right choice he was no good with the children, it was his fault. His wife kept the house clean made tasty food kept house clean n worked but he wronged her.
Sharing her story on national TV was incredibly brave. I truly hope that she, along with her siblings, finds peace someday.
@@My_Secret_ArtSketchbook. Yes, abuse is breaking vows, not leaving an abuser!
Waooo I had watch a lot of episodes and I gotta say this one broke my heart, and to tell y’all the truth, brought me tears in my eyes and also my heart! 😢😢😢😢😢
Man, this is so tragic. His oldest daughter is so beautiful and sweet. All the kids are beautiful. And his ex. Wow
His oldest daughter breaks my heart....
The selfishness of the killers who make innocent children essentially orphans, traumatized forever.
