It sucks but the daughter and ex wife really should wrap their heads around the fact that Donald, whether due to alcohol, drugs, the stripper wife, whatever the reason, he turned into a p.o.s. and was no longer the husband and dad they knew. He wanted his young stripper wife and he got her, so be it. He created his own fate as a forty-something year old man. Rebekah was wrong but so was Donald. It all sucks. To pretend that he played no part in his own death is just straight up denial and it's ignorant.
@@FaithMichelle420 I dunno if you've ever been physically abused by someone, I hope you haven't. Either way, if you had, you'd know that every hit, kick, punch, slap, dog-cussing you take, it kills a little bit of the love you have for someone. The love is replaced with fear, hatred, loss of hope, defeat, frustration, resentment ...sometimes, not sayin it's right...but sometimes the negative overflows and there's no love left. Sometimes people snap. Even if the person isn't hurting you in that moment, some people just are fed up and know prison can't be any worse. So No Ma'am or Sir, Abuse is never an excuse for murder. However, abuse is absofuckinglutely a Reason.
@@christysivley i have been physically abused but i wasn’t completely inocent. i hit and fight back and i yelled too. on top of that even tho my dad still abuses me i wouldn’t be able to kill and i most certainly wouldn’t be able wait a whole 23 minutes before calling someone for help.
@@FaithMichelle420point is, don’t judge unless you’d rather be the one in their shoes getting judged. You don’t know what you would do bc you weren’t there
Some times especially the mother wants to hide what a son does and is. I seen it for years my own mom did it with my brother. He never did anything wrong when he did everything from abusing his wife getting drunk high and fighting my mom paying for his fine. So don't ever say your son or daughter was not involved
The fact your banking excuses for the woman is mind boggling. You don’t realise what some woman will do to a man. You don’t or ever date so you wouldn’t know. Try dating a stripper
Yes, absolutely. I was in an abusive relationship. He was a drunk, verbally, emotionally, and physically abusive. I thought I couldn't do better since I was disabled with a young son. It's a part of life we never talk about. Thankfully, he was sometimes at his father's house half the time. But still he heard and watched. When I heard him starting verbally on my son is when I knew I had to get out. What's also sad. Is that men find these younger women and leave their wives and children. For what they think is the greener side. It changes them. His wife says he was never like that with her. You can't compare the 2. Video doesn't lie that he was abusive to Rebekkah right in front of her son. As a mother, his ex and daughter should not be condoning his behavior for any reason. Absolutely no excuse. If you're a real man, you brush off moat comments. It's funny how there's NO video of her hitting him. Just proves to you that he was the abuser
My Mom told me, “I told your Dad once, “if I can’t getcha while you’re awake, I’ll getcha while you’re sleeping…” She said it and forgot about saying it. 20 years later, my Dad brought it up to her and said he slept with one eye open for years after that. My Mom laughed. RIP Mom & Dad.
She’s not innocent but for his ex wife and daughters to be ok that he’s hitting her they look like clowns. Pitiful! No one deserves to be abused mentally or physically nor is murder a way out of a toxic relationship. So sad
@vsbaretummysugastonguetech1540 hardly a beating certainly violent, but that wasn't a beating. You're exaggerating but she's definitely in denial we literally see him doing it.
@@godhg9694and he was a wicked man and got exactly what he deserved !it always behoves me to see people with The lords name in there user names and religious avatars being so willing to look at the evidence ignore it and come to a conclusion that only fits there narrative !Not based on fact or reality ! He liked that said wicked life style so he got a wicked death now didn’t he!
She’s not saying they’re lies she’s saying the wife provoked him. Basically, he hit her because she asked for it! 😒🙄 Wonder if she would’ve felt that way if it had been her mom and a stepdad?
Yeah she may have provoked him, and being under the influence he was not able to control his emotions. My question is, why did his first marriage fail? Who got his inheritance?
Absolutely! Daughters seem obviously biased and in denial. Imo, although Rebekah did shoot him, it appears that she had battered womens’ syndrome and 10 years seems appropriate to me, 2nd degree murder/crime of passion. This case reminds me of the Betty Broderick case. I believe Betty got life and her late lawyer husband put her through hell. The mental abuse was brutal. I always thought Betty got an unfair trial.
As an outsider looking at this, I see that the husband and wife both were abusive to each other. His family knows him as the sober , great father and husband but alcohol changes everything and people.
A great father that leaves his family to leave with a plastic titted stripper, so he can become the man he always wanted to be in secret. To chase his dark dreams that got him the only fitting reward in the end. The world is a better place with this shithead gone and the lousy mother behind bars. hopefully the son will have a decent foster family.
Regardless of whos to blame, the kids watch a video of their dad smacking his wife around and their answer "you dont know what she did to deserve it". Sounds like a real healthy and well balanced bunch.
They didn’t use the word deserve, reasons are not justifications just like the woman’s defenders are giving plenty of reasons of why she shot him to death barely avoiding the word deserve
The way he threw her in the pool and the hitting...He was an older man who could have been a leader.. He created a world that took his life.. His family makes a lot of excuses.. She's not innocent either.. What a waste.
the definiing of a video with no sound can be easily cast in what ever light the narrator wants it to be casted in, the pool thing she coulda been laughing and giggling, and before that he coulda been playing with the dog. also we dont even know how much footage they looked through.. was it a months worth?? or the span of their whole marriage? was that every instance or was their more clips? i thought u decided he was a miserable person before really seeing the whole picture, of course its in her best interest to say he was a miserable soul now cause she blew his brains out. i mean common she clearly stated she couldnt remeber a single thing about the night and she didnt even remeber shooting him, then she went into saying that she was bargining with him for her life, and he was about to call a hitman.
Plus, once they become a "angry" drunk there's no going back to happy go lucky drunk anymore. At some point they'll get angry for "whatever" reason. It's the alcohol!
He was a completely different person in his second marriage. I get the daughter and how devastated she is but if I watched a video of my father doing that I'd have to say I wouldn't be surprised about the outcome. They were both alcoholics. The claim one was annoying and one was abusive, so many reports to the cops I'm sure everyone that knew them knew they were a time bomb ticking. It made me sick watching him abuse her even if she was a pain in the arse!
I wonder what the pet did to set him off. It’s fine to say it was both of them, clearly it was, but when he was going after the animal it didn’t seem like an equal conflict at all.
yes!!!! and alcohol changes people!!! they were always using together! he still should never raise his hand to her. Just divorce her if your that unhappy.
Listen to what was said maybe, the claim was: the ex wasn't hit, because she didn't antagonize and bait the dead guy. Not that Donald never hit the stripper wife.
The video also shows her antagonizing him. Women need to learn that if they pick a fight with someone stronger than them, they should expect to get hurt. It's so disgusting to see women expecting double standards when they antagonize men. If you poke a bear, there's a chance that you'll get mauled.
Yes I know right LOL 😆 They are both so obviously addictive toxic individuals a blind man could see it. In saying that the ex family sounds bitter and delusional about him and his behaviour.
He was a normal and good husband to his first wife when he was younger, and a good father to his kids, good to his family, but turned to alcohol near the end of his marriage. It seems obvious, he was starting to have a mid life crisis, he starts working out, he lost weight, drinking a lot more, partying like he's a young man in his 20's with no responsibilities, no family, doing drugs, all with his new much younger stripper wife. This just SCREAMS mid life crisis! Being drunk and high every day along with his young wife, he became very physically and verbally abusive to his young wife, he was out of control! And his young wife just as out of control as he was! Disaster was inevitable.
You can't claim someone must be innocent because "he never did that to me," when you literally divorced him because he became someone you no longer knew nor wanted to be with. The ex-wife obviously no longer knows the man he became. It's sickening that they can watch that footage and not only defend him, but blame her.
Yeah he turned evil out of resentment, he got tired if being the perfect the ol dude, told by the people he associated with that he was a p....y , his business associates , that's what happens when you surround yourself by the wrong ppl.
Exactly she divorced him and laughed and what do you know he did not hunt her down and kill her which means the murderer had the same option, but chose murder over top of it
Im literally wondering if the ex wife had something to gain to not bad mouth him.. maybe some of his assets? Or the daughters inherited them and she needs to not publicly bad mouth to still get a piece of the pie..
😢 so sad for this family, I know our Lord hurts too, to see his children walking in so much hate, vengeance masked as justice. I pray he heals this family and DJ. He hates the sin, but wants to rescue the sinner. He sees the intent. His heart is so full of love, even to those that were ordered to killed him 😢 he said, "father forgive them, they know not what they're doing". Every time I hear his words of such love, I cry 😢 He loves us all, even while we are sinners. Maybe she find our Lord , so he can heal her and not some religion to follow after. That 911 call was slurred the first I heard it today. I was like whats this lady messed up on. Our Lord is full of justice and wants us to show his way of justice and to help the broken and pray for each other. Its good the appointed Judge showed justice and mercy and give her hope and time to change before our loving God and Lord that shows fairness non-bias to all mankind, his children. Showing Justice and Mercy for All 💙🩷🩷💜💙💙💙💛🩷🩷💙 🙏🏼Praying for victims; ones that are subjected to oppression, hardship, abuse or mistreatment, unjust hate, unjust judging.

Yeah its sad but I don't feel bad for him cause he decides to be with a crazy stripper?🤑!🤮! Wtf you think is gonna happen being with a ho***idiot's???!🤔🤣😂
They say that because he was not like that with them, he became a different person due to the drinking drugs and life style and like their friend said she would antagonize him nag to death and start stuff However it doesn't mean he should hit her, she should have left/divorced him period if she was so miserable etc.......
I think they were both crazy. The alcohol and drugs had probably gotten the best of both of them. Seems like he was actually a decent, responsible guy prior to his divorce. The girlfriend may have been the same before she got into stripping.
He probably wasn't. Does no one recognize that when he hits her she's in his face or storming off. Surely she wasn't saying sweet things. Alcohol affects your decision making ability, they drink way too much. Their friend says she instigated it, so she probably verbally provoked him women always know how to attack your insecurities. Being drunk feeling like his manhood was challenged he hits her in retaliation. Which is completely wrong on his part, but she knew what she was doing. Which was wrong on her part. We often say that physical abuse is more wrong than emotional abuse. But I would argue they are equally wrong. At end of the day she shoots him in the head without reason, he was just sitting on the couch trying to call his daughter, she was completely wasted went into the other room to get a gun and shoots the guy. She's a murderer and not like women who are really abused and doesn't deserve the same respect.
You dont see her hitting him because if you listened to the video it was said they were only showing her side they didn't show his side because if they did we would see her abusing him.
They already said you didn't see the videos of him being hit by her. And their "friends" who lived with them already said BOTH were violent against each other. So, you only saw ONE SIDE of the full evidence. Nobody has learned even now that you have to wait to see all the evidence before blaming anyone. What are you stupid?
@@It_About_Great_Reset_Tyranny. We are only showed certain clips. I wonder what his previous family were shown, to believe he was threatened by her, because in those shown here, the only thing she could’ve been doing to him was saying something he didn’t like and his actions were totally not justified. It is too bad that neither of them got away from each other. His family said he changed, but then defend him, referring to his previous way of life. I didn’t understand the friends saying she didn’t sound drunk on the 911 call, she sounded drunk to me.
Some people crave the excitement of toxic relationships and drama and often the life they are used to. They don't know how to live life any other way. I agree with you that it is a horrible existence. I love a quiet, drama free life and will not tolerate people attempting to drag me in to any toxic situations or relationships anymore. It's important to me to bring my daughter up in a safe, secure environment and lead by example.
He seems like a real gentleman, ignoring the fact that he knocked the crap out of her regularly and at a whim. I don't know how his daughters and former wife can ignore what's right before their eyes.
I’m so glad the comments are passing the vibe check. I can’t imagine losing my father like that, but if I saw video footage of him being so utterly violent and abusive, I’d definitely not be all over tv saying the woman he did that to was lying. It’s literally on video idk how you can even be in such blatant denial like that. He got what he had coming to him, imo. The thought that she should be locked up for life like the daughter wants is insane.
I'm grossed out by the daughter's comments... there is literal video evidence that he was violent. At minimum she should be acknowledging that her father was half the problem. It's wild to see her defending him like this.
totally agree!! ty for the sane comment thought i wouldnt find this in the comments section. the guy clearly beat and abused her and im glad he's gone. she took the trash out. sucks it cost a son his mother though.
Obviously the ex-wife divorced him because he became an alcoholic. I guarantee there were abusive signs happening while she was still married to him. She just knew when to leave before it got that bad. I think mom and daughter just jealous cause she looked younger and better than them both lol
Same. I also don't like that this channel has reduced her to "Stripper murders..." she is more than a past profession. I dont even think she should have been charged with second-degree, there is clear evidence here of perpetual abuse, variety of guns in the house. Its easy to slip into "if I dont, he will". She's known nothing but violence from him.
I like how the daughters who weren't there are so sure their father was not an abuser. Unreal, ma'am the video doesn't lie and even if the wife mouthed off and annoyed him, that's no reason for him to abuse his wife. Smh.
Pretend he is an abuser and she is harmless, then u have to admit she is a terrible mother and should not be raising her child, since she does not care for its safety. He stayed in the relationship since he knew she would get half his stuff, she stayed in the relationship to get all of his stuff.
She hit him as well. Her best friends even have confirmed it. I like that there was no reason for him to abuse her, but apparently murder is just fine.
the stripper is lying abusive women lie and say the men are the abusive ones because that helps them and are free to be abusive to the man who can't defend himself now because she is a woman and everyone just believes the women
‘ Never raised his voice let alone hit me ‘ just because he didn’t do it to you doesn’t mean that he wouldn’t do it to his now wife. How is the ex still in denial after video showed him shoving and throwing her around . Shame on the ex wife
I don’t feel bad for that man at all. Two trash bags ruining the life of an innocent child with their toxicity and abuse. My heart breaks for her son. He was seeing all of this and was probably terrified. I pray he gets the therapy and love he needs and deserves.
Yeh, I wonder where the boy was when the murder happened? That'd mess your mind hearing a gunshot then finding your mom calmly smoking a cig while she's watching a guy die.
Obviously both in fault The hooker made him like that and he was too lame to know better and then he falls for her lifestyle. Nobody deserved to die and of coarse, the kid is the victim here. Abbie, I hope you’re not in a violent relationship. You sound like you’re pissed cause it reminds you of something personal. I don’t wish violence upon anyone.
In spite of their toxic relationship, he was a despicable person. He constantly beat her and did so in front of the child. I don't understand why she continued to live in such a horrible situation. I don't feel sorry for him.
statistically, the most dangerous time (aka potentially lethal time) in an abused woman's life is when she is leaving her abuser. when as a society will we stop blaming the abused person for "not leaving"? some literally do and they are murdered during or after leaving. i have two people close to me in life, who thankfully escaped with their life. they were the lucky ones because they had family to help and make threats to the abuser.
@@hanhes Because not leaving a blatantly abusive relationship for months is enabling them to stay in an abusive relationship you knob. "We shouldnt tell them to leave, someplace somewhere someone left a abusive relationship got murdered!!!" So instead you're wanting them to stay in the relationship for an extended period of time longer... which will result in them eventually being murdered. Dumbass
Bcs she feared for her life. It's when you try to leave an abuser that you are the in the most danger. About 70% off the women who are killed by their spouse or BF are so when they try to leave. There is no protection for her or her son if she left. He could easily track her down & finnish her off. Cops can do nothing before he does something to her. That's not anywhere near adequate protection
I love that her entire existance is reduced to nothing more than a "stripper" it's actually kind of pathetic since he was an abuser...maybe reduce his identity to wife beater, that seems fair.
Thank you! She is so much more that what she did for a living for a while. Not that there is anything wrong with it, but you can change jobs, but once an abuser and wife beater, and wife-over-the-floor-dragger, animal beater, etc, it's very common that you stay that way. So yes, if we start to labeling: He was a wife beater, she is a mother.
I was in an abusive relationship. When I got pregnant he stopped hitting me but I knew once I had the baby it would continue. I told him I was coming to Canada to have the baby and come right back. I never returned. Today I'm a nurse and a single mom. I'd rather raise my son on my own than in a family where he's seeing his dad beat his mom. He never saw his son and hate my guts to this day. We haven't spoken for years. Yes I wish my son had his dad around but I also didnt want him to be the example for my son. He could have killed me if I stayed and that was enough for me to get out. That poor baby. I truly hope he is somewhere safe. No kid should have to witness this shit!!
I went through something similar … the best thing you can do for your son is find a good man to be in his life. A genuinely good man. Get therapy if you don’t know how to pick one of those (seriously) and you and your son will be just fine❤ my only regret is staying single and raising my son alone because he really needed a father figure and I was too scared to pick one honestly. You did a good job getting away from him!! God bless you and your son !
The first story, sorry daughter, your dad was a piece of crap! It doesn't matter if she antagonized him or not. That was pure abuse. Yes, she killed him, that is also bad. But I believe he lived in the land he created. Scum who kicks his pet? Not sure what the ex was all about. but, he didn't have tattoos, gages stretching his ears, or punching his ex-wife either, but he changed, didn't he?!
Let’s not give one sided arguments here. She tried to create those instances. If I walked up to Mike Tyson and pestered him, you would cheer for him beating my shit in and I know you would cause it actually happened and was a viral clip. She instigated fights hoping the would occur and wants to cry victim after the results it got her? Results that never left her bloodied, bruised, beaten, or battered as well? Not justifying his behavior, but removing all accountability from the aggressor isn’t the move my guy. He is guilty for hitting people. She is guilty for intentionally trying to start fights that lead to that as well as the murder she commited.
@@NoodlepenisI have to agree with you. I will agree that the abuse looked horrible and he was wrong for that, but I feel like if she was actually afraid of him she wouldn’t have antagonized him like she did. Also, it wasn’t just his kids and ex talking badly about the new wife, everyone they interviewed said she pestered and antagonized him.
Yes he did change and it didn’t happen until he got with that piece of s*** …… not excusing his behavior because he was abusive but she taunted him all day long just because she could ……she’s disgusting
@@nicolesallie5278 or he was being his real self. You're putting all of his behavior on her. He was a grown man. He'd already changed, that's why his first wife left him in the first place. He chose to do those things, lmao why are you putting them on her? He wanted the young hot stripper... he was loving it, as he smacked her around. But you're putting that all on her? 😅
Even when his daughters watch him beat on his wife they still make excuses and call her evil. They were both a mess and a man should never strike, push, punch, pull hair or drag a woman around by the hair. She got the last hit and unfortunately it cost him his life and she will sit in prison for twenty years. His daughters need to wake up. Their dad was an abuser to this woman.
One of those ladies, Karen, is his ex wife. He had children with her. I can’t understand how the ex's logic for proving his innocence was that he never hit her during their relationship together. It’s on video, plain as day, that he DID hit Rebecka, so her point is completely irrelevant. That really made me realise that no matter how much evidence is presented, they’ll always want to protect his status as a victim who did no wrong. IMO, they were both in the wrong in the end.
Last blow? Kill a man in cold blood. If she found him abusive, why didn't she separate? Stay away from me lady "last blow", your husband takes care of himself. Are you also a stripper?
I'm a stripper. Been with my husband for 12 years, were HS sweethearts.❤. I still danced for a while after we married until we could buy our house and our property and now I'm a chicken farmer and I am a webcam model. We don't drink but sometimes we are 420 friendly (legal where we live) He treats me like a princess and sometimes joins in on the webcam. We have 2 cars paid off, 3 acres, and 3 huskies. Were expecting our first child in 2015! Very blessed to have all these things and it's because mama worked her tits off work them ! Strippers can be very smart normal women....sometimes 😂😂😂
@@tedcruzeatemysonfrom a 44 yo female from the uk , well done babe, stripping is just a job , no different to modelling,webcamming, cat walks its all using what you got to get what you want and you did that! im glad your so happy and it says your expecting your first child in 2015 i was mega confused till i realised you mustve meant 2025 , most of these comments are from ugly jealous people lol
Unfortunately, the daughter is in complete denial of her dad’s *Vile* behaviour! The wife is a witch, but the hubby was a woman beater. There’s only so much a woman can take!
@@thetruthdatedr.4766 EXACTLY !!! She didn't think of her poor son witnessing and hearing all their disgusting behaviours. To me this in itself makes her an abuser too.
Wasn’t a bad guy? I saw the abuse in the videos. He could have left her instead of abusing her. She may be what changed him but there is NO excuse for his disgusting behavior!
True...BUT she could have also LEFT him instead of living with him (in a house that HE was paying for). But she didn't do that now did she? She shot him in the head. Like a silly lil bitch.
I don’t understand how the ex wife and daughters can say he wasn’t like that and there is clear video of him abusing her, I’m not saying that justifies murder, and I’ve never abused a woman or been abused myself, how do you do you deny what is clearly on video (him abusing her, and her shooting him) was obviously a recipe for disaster.
@@Reeeeeee12345your totally incorrect, no woman or man deserves to be treated like that, clearly some to many woman hurt you…but yours is the stupidest statement I’ve ever read, no one male or female deserves to be treated badly.
This story is a great reminder of what excessive drinking can actually do. Who knows, maybe they were good people before they started having alcohol for breakfast. That aspect is sad.
I can't feel bad for him , the abuse and humiliation is evil. Ive seen alot of abuse and the humiliation is what sticks most , my dad pouring food over my mom's head bc it was disgusting according to him , his favorite food , my mom had been cooking all day. Another time he just opened the fridge and pour stuff on her. I'm not justifying murder but I understand how this can happen. You can't just break and destroy a person, treat them like garbage and expect them to keep sane.
Agreed. It's right there on video for all to see. Did she instigate? I'm SURE she did! Does that justify his physical violence towards her? Absolutely not. LEAVE! Don't respond with violence.
That was the man that you knew, you divorced him because you said his drinking had gotten so bad. Well you did the smart thing. She didnt!! No excuses for him either IMO.
These daughters are delusional. He hit her on tape and they still say she was the abuser. They may have been mutually abusive at times but those tapes show HIM as the primary abuser. Where are the tapes of her abusing him?
this is an episode that the children pretends to be blind even the cctv shows a lot of so much abuse but prefers their loved one is still an angel. But of course, crime is not an excuse enable to be excused of such abuse
@@BFdEutschLaNd CCTV does not show what she is saying and doing and why she seems to be drunk and walking towards him in an aggressive manner prior to being abused.
What infuriates me is his ex wife and daughters making excuses for his despicable physical assaults. There is no excuse to EVER lay a hand on someone. That one punch to her head could've killed her! She got him before he got her!
What infuriates me is the daughter's vocal fry. The mother does it too but not as infuriating as the daughter. I thought that was a mostly California thing, but apparently, it's moved into Arizona too.
I agree with you.....men are not suppose to hit a woman the weaker sex he could had been the better person through all this instead he chose not to be and beat her instead.
I was an alcoholic for 15 years...I do not remember my 30s and half my 40s. I totally believe her! These two had no business having weapons in that home with a relationship like that! She freaking snapped!
@@TheMackoftheyear She is saying that she believes that the woman doesnt remember. Thats a very valid point from a professed alcoholic. I can't imagine drinking to the point of not remembering. So I cant imagine that. But to hear it from someone that was a hard core alcoholic say sit, it hold smore weight. Although clearly he smacked her around, I argue abuse can also be emotionally abusive, I argue they abused each other, in a alcohol fueled nightmare of a relationship. Co-dependent and alcoholic . You don't believe all women, you believe your eyes and the facts. women are not believed plenty. I would also argue that in many abusive relationships it goes both ways. I had a friend that was abusive to men, and she would verbally push a man beyond his limits. The good guys left, the bad guys hit her ,until she made them leave.
How can his ex-wife say that Rebecca’s accusations are just the lies of a pathological liar when the surveillance cameras clearly show him abusing her?
Because her ex married a stripper and she was more angry at the other woman than the dysfunctional man she's defending while he batters his new wife. Boggles the mind.
"blaming her for being beat is just disgusting..." Perhaps so is blaming him for being murdered. But I'm having trouble working up any feelings for either of these people. They just seem like users. He left behind his family for a hot chick, and she seemed to be in love with his money.
Witnesses say he put up the cameras, so what happened to the rest of the videos where is the sounds, was she harassing abusing him to give an "excuse" to murder him? No witnesses to support the majority of what she claims, and calmly smoking a cigarette after shooting him says a lot.
I agree, what I saw was a woman harassing him till he reacted the way she wanted because she knew his actions were being recorded! She was not an abused wife, she was a husband agitator! That's what I saw!
There is nothing more infuriating than family members gaslighting abuse victims by telling them that their family member was "nothing like that" In these cases two things can be true about a person - he may never have abused YOU but he may have been abusive to someone else's mother or daughter or sister. Sit with that. Let it sink in. The man you know abused a woman and that woman was not you or anyone in your family... but he is an abuser ... it is possible.
Nobody deserves to lose their life, but he was abusive as hell. I’m sure she was no angel either, but for the daughter to see those videos and claim “he was nothing like that” - that’s denial right there. I think they were both really bad for each other and they brought out the worst in each other. 20 years is appropriate in my opinion. She’s a killer but not a monster.
The ex wife: “He just turned into a completely different person.” Also the ex wife: “He never laid a hand on me. He wouldn’t do that.” Seems to me that she is either a liar or unable to understand the logic of her own statements (or the editing team used something taken out of context).
@@DJ-769 I’m use to seeing people change for the worse FAR more often than for the better. I have seen good or decent guys (not great, but not bad either) go from normal behavior to violent and/or aggressive behavior over the course of years. Some things just break people. Drugs, divorce, death of a loved one, being “left behind” by people who just outgrow them, and other things. So I think it’s at least possible that this guy may have been a decent guy to his first wife, but there an equal or great chance that you’re right and he just hid his behavior well the first time around.
The ex wife and daughter are in denial. Alcohol changes people (that’s why they divorced). Aggression & emotional dysregulation are common. When you frequently drink large amounts you can start to have blackouts while wide awake (amnesia). Sucks for both of them. He’s dead and shes in prison. It could have been the other way around too. 🤷🏻♀️
@@anh7807 yes total dirtbag thats why his first wife left him but sticks up for him?we can see him pounding her in the head they cant see that? even if she did so call antagonize him he could have walked out the door when I was was young my dad told me never lay hands on a woman no matter what walk away.
Those daughters are so ignorant. Shame on them for blaming the victim. The footage clearly showed he was abusive. Just because he wasn’t abusive to you doesn’t mean he wasn’t abusive to someone else.
How many times do you see these young girls, generally they’re strippers Or involved in some questionable trade as well as partiers. They latch on to a rich older man, and that man ends up dead down the road, you see it all the time. I seen in those videos her instigating him, I think she was setting him up, Setting up her alibi. His first wife and his first family say he never got angry, and never lifted a finger to his wife, kids, nothing and all of a sudden he becomes this terror, Doesn’t make sense. And Rebecca has her son witnessed this lifestyle for how many years, she’s where she belongs. These daughters have every right to be upset they’re kids,his kids, they’re young what do you expect, and then you call them ignorant. We really have turned bass Ackwards with what’s right is wrong and what’s wrong is right.
@@craigimeWell, you know the sleeping dog didn't antagonize him. There is no excuse for beating on another person unless in self defense or to protect someone defenseless. The dog was innocent, too.
@@nowirehangers2815 Read my comment again. Nothing in it implies a man should beat a women. But, if she poses an imminent threat to himself, family or property, all bets are off, and if it requires an @&& kickin', he has the right to subdue her by whatever means available.
My heart literally dropped after seeing this, no woman should have to go through something like that. Sad to say but no matter how much people deny it, alcohol and hard partying can lead to consequences such as this. I feel just as bad for their kid who literally had to witness the abuse and will probably be traumatized the rest of his life! At least he won’t have to deal with his crazy parents. Much prayers to the boy.
I find it disgusting that regardless of her antagonizing him his ex wife and kids made excuse for physical abuse and say u only got to hear one side of the story ok but u can clearly see the camera side of the story cameras don’t lie. They are seriously in denial n seem like they r salty about her being with him from the beginning
The daughters insist he wasn't an abuser and those videos somehow didn't show how she was the aggressor is ridiculous. He was an abuser and she should have gone to trial and walked! The vocal fry of the one daughter was like nails on a chalkboard.
OK I was all on his side until the videos of abuse were shown. I was so taken aback when the daughter kept saying, "She would antagonize him." Outrageous.
The ex wife was with him before he became a raging alcoholic. The daughter doesn’t want to remember her father as a alcoholic abuser but it’s on video. He repeatedly hits her. I saw no video of her hitting him. With no sound we can’t hear what happens before he attacks her but that doesn’t justify attacking her either. The daughter also only heard her fathers side of the story. The little boy would have better knowledge of their home life and what was going on. He saw it.
So sad. agree 100%. Im not saying she should’ve killed him but a woman saying that it’s because she wouldn’t stop talking that she was getting beat? no ma’am.
@@raimeyewens7518 The ex wife also seems more alpha than he was. He bowed to her so to speak. The whole situation is ick! After seeing the home security, the ex and the daughter are just willfully blind.
It's weird that his Ex and daughter sees him abuse his wife and refuses to accept that she was a victim as well? I'm not saying that she had a right to shoot him in that particular moment when he was on the phone, not physically fighting her... but to not hold him, in anyway accountable for his part... they're tone deaf.
I guess he installed cameras as he believed she was going to kill him. How can you beat a woman like this and not think that in the back of your mind. He didn’t deserve to die, but she didn’t deserve that level of abuse.
Happy the comments passed the vibe check y’all. I thought I was losing it for how I felt. He didn’t just hit her, he smacked her out of existence at times. He wasn’t this man that they used to know. I was abused by someone, no one believed me because in front of everyone else - he was the person everyone wanted to be around. He has a wife now, I don’t know if he hurts her. At the time I was in college and we were together for 4 years partying, and living our life. Partying changes people. Maybe him having a wife and children now and not being in college partying has changed him. But regardless, the first time he hit me was on my 21st birthday in a NYC bar. He got kicked out, and I chased him down trying to get him to take me to the hotel, getting a smack every time I approached him. I was young and stupid. But a person put me in a taxi and said “it’s time to go, leave him behind - I work for a domestic violence line.” I don’t know if she really did, but I’m glad she did that. I even went to an nyc cop in a park - flirting with girls - he did absolutely nothing for me but this stranger did. This was 6 months into our relationship. The day I left him he hit me on both sides of my head at the same time. I weighed roughly 115 pounds. He weighed 190 at least. I fell to the ground. I pretended to go to work that morning and called my Dad. Told him everything. I never went back. Moral of the story, I still see him here and there. He lives his life like he’s never abused me for 4 years. And I’m sure his friends and family think he never touched me aggressively. Just because someone doesn’t abuse you, doesn’t mean they don’t have the ability to do it to someone else.
You let it go 4 years what a trooper try 45 years of abuse to raise two family's then get ill and then when I'm no use anymore she takes it all and leaves 4 years you have no idea by the looks of it you got ten more try's
I know the type, and I guarantee you, a guy that hits women, does it because he enjoys it, so you weren't the last one he found an excuse to abuse. So glad you got out when you did, before he maimed you.
@@pamelamccarthy1412 You know what saddens me? It’s kind of a trauma I have but I’m going to be open. I didn’t call the cops ever on him. I did however on the last day, tell my parents. I expressed to common friends. (Who overall ignored my cries and believed him while he was calling my parents apologizing saying he was suicidal and he wants to work it out bc he loves me) And I tried calling his Mom, to have her get him in counseling, and she told me what happened between us, should stay between us. So, my trauma is also - because I didn’t get police reports when he hit me, or go to the police ever - May his wife be enduring the same abuse if not worse? That scares me. And I feel it’s my fault.
who cares if he's happy or not it sounds lame but you need to be happy and when you are you wont give a crap if he's dead or alive Ive been there its a hard road but you got to be happy do what it takes.I got stories to and time will tell I've been hurt by cheating and lies from women and I didnt have to do anything for revenge. they got theirs hearing about their lives 8 and 10 years later and it was cool not caring one bit im not going to say I didnt Toung and cheek it a little ...lol, but hey.
I was split from ex. I got home from work, i was in kitchen on phone with mom n bro. Ex walks in, starts yelling at me (mom hearing it), i was leaning over taking my boots off, he shoved me hard against stove (bent handle) so i right hooked him with heal of boot, knocked him to floor, stood over him n told him next time i wont stop....get out of my house. He got on phone with my mom n bro whinning n my mom was laughing n she told him DONT YOU REMEMBER SHES THE BABY WITH 6 OLDER BROTHERS????? YOUR NOT REAL SMART! He left i got on phone my bro was furious. I said why you mad, you taught me to not take any crap. Didnt see ex again till 20 yrs later. 🤧🤮
That is the question? So these women need to be taught better to get the hell out after the first physical violence when there's alcohol involved especially
Violence is not equal to antagonism. Give me a break. The end result of this is no surprise. Evil is as evil does. Neither one are innocent but his abuse of her trumps her being an idiot. Toxic all the way around.
way to just fall in line..... its really easy to build a narrative around video clips with no volume. sure its not right he hit her, but its in her best interest right now to turn everyone of them clips into him just being a monster and coming after her. for all we know for that pool clip he coulda been playing with the animal and she came out to give him some shit so he went to throw her in the pool playfully like they both coulda been laughing while it was happening. i mean look at all the videos on the internet where someone in thrown into a pool if u take away the volume and u knowing thtat its playful, it looks just like a horrible assault.
i didnt state that one because id say thats pretty cut and dry, but some of the other ones i think are questionable without sound to get a better picture. im sorry that somewhere in life some alcoholic fucked u up so bad, u cant even look at other situations objectively without just coming to a guilty conclusion.@@gobbledegook1
@@soulsreaper7145Wtf dude, he beat her! No excuse is good enough. I’m not saying she was right in doing it, just that maybe karma came for him. He was a pos!
Anyone who has ever been “black-out” drunk knows that it is absolutely possible to have zero recollection and do things completely out of the ordinary. I remember my alcoholic father trying to eat a stick of butter when he was black out drunk once. Not an excuse, but after seeing how hammered she was in the interrogation, I totally believe she doesn’t remember.
Except that after awhile you do begin to remember fragments of memories and you eventually do piece things together. I only know this from experience, having been blacked out several times myself. I know from experience that when you go to court and read the written testimony against you it definitely all clicks into place. Just sayin from my perspective.
@@arborian2112 yeah, everyone is different though. I’ve been there myself and hearing stories about things i did didn’t trigger any memories for me. Sad all around. Alcohol is evil. It really seems to have caused all of this including his abuse toward her. I had a cop tell me once that about 75% of DV calls involve alcohol. Meanwhile, I’ve heard zero incidents of abuse at the hands of someone on cannabis.
That’s a lie! You do not always remember. I stopped drinking in college because my last black out and I still don’t recall what I did. I’m just glad I was in my own space.
“I remember my alcoholic father trying to eat a stick of butter when he was black out drunk … [..] but after seeing how hammered SHE was [..] I totally believe SHE doesn’t remember
I'm 6'4" 240 lbs and Never would I ever think about putting my hands on a woman. I think men that abuse women and children are... I won't even say it. If that was my father doing that I would be disgusted and would NEVER defend it.
Very easy to say. It’s clear you’ve never spend extensive time around women. Men have physical capabilities. Women have verbal. I am in no way condoning violence against women but there is usually never evidence of the things a woman can say to you to drive you over the edge. This man’s ex wife said he never lifted a finger or his voice against her. That should tell you a lot.
The ONLY part I believe is about how the night he died he was probably messing with her saying he was going to put a "hit" on her. He even grabbed his phone and called his daughter and left a message. He did NOT say "hey it's dad", so she probably thought it was someone he was calling to kill her. 🤯🤷♀️
When you are in a relationship, often one of the two (but not both) is unreasonable and impossible to live with. I have been with women who had an attitude that everything I do is wrong and everything I neglected to do is wrong.
As someone who was completely sober, abused for the last year of a 4 year relationship, and almost killed on my 30th birthday… if I had a gun, I probably would’ve done the same thing. Thank God I didn’t, but I almost lost my life on the way out.. I have a cerebral contusion and have to deal with issues with my brain for the rest of my life… his family to this day calls him a “stand up guy” and doesn’t believe he’s capable of what was done even with proof.… I wish I could feel bad watching this, but I can’t find it in me to.
I'm so sorry, I too have been there and I agree with you. I got out just in time, before it was my life or his. You are so strong and you are a survivor! Sending love and hugs 🙏❤
I’m honestly surprised that the ex wife is defending him, it still doesn’t excuse abusing someone, get divorced, get away. Once you raise your hand you’re guilty.
The alcohol clearly changed him. Can't be a coincidence that the ex wife left him after he starting drinking excessively. Either she left him before the abusive personality came out, or she left him cause he was abusive but won't admit it because she doesn't want her kids to look at him differently.
The ex wife and daughter cannot admit he’s a bad guy. It’s protecting their egos to call the stripper “evil” and to exonerate the man they love. They don’t want to be wrong.
It sucks but the daughter and ex wife really should wrap their heads around the fact that Donald, whether due to alcohol, drugs, the stripper wife, whatever the reason, he turned into a p.o.s. and was no longer the husband and dad they knew. He wanted his young stripper wife and he got her, so be it. He created his own fate as a forty-something year old man. Rebekah was wrong but so was Donald. It all sucks. To pretend that he played no part in his own death is just straight up denial and it's ignorant.
@cynthiay.4abuse is never an excuse to kill. she clearly didn’t care about his life and never did. she smoked a cigarette before calling 911!
@@FaithMichelle420 I dunno if you've ever been physically abused by someone, I hope you haven't. Either way, if you had, you'd know that every hit, kick, punch, slap, dog-cussing you take, it kills a little bit of the love you have for someone. The love is replaced with fear, hatred, loss of hope, defeat, frustration, resentment ...sometimes, not sayin it's right...but sometimes the negative overflows and there's no love left. Sometimes people snap. Even if the person isn't hurting you in that moment, some people just are fed up and know prison can't be any worse. So No Ma'am or Sir, Abuse is never an excuse for murder. However, abuse is absofuckinglutely a Reason.

The fact that his family made excuse for him abusing his wife is mind boggling.
I totally agree. His behavior was abhorrent.
Some times especially the mother wants to hide what a son does and is. I seen it for years my own mom did it with my brother. He never did anything wrong when he did everything from abusing his wife getting drunk high and fighting my mom paying for his fine. So don't ever say your son or daughter was not involved
Right? EVERYTHING is on video???
The fact your banking excuses for the woman is mind boggling. You don’t realise what some woman will do to a man. You don’t or ever date so you wouldn’t know. Try dating a stripper
the girl literally said "he wont raise a hand to anyone" like didnt u see the video? that man literally hit her, dragged her and shit.
I can't imagine what her son had to go through with all the drunkenness and chaos. Poor kid. I hope he's ok.
Praying that he breaks the cycle, in Jesus's Name 🙏 🕊️
Him and the parrot.
what about thaddeus???????
Yeah it seems they forgot how traumatizing that whole thing was for that child. So sad😢😢
Yes, absolutely. I was in an abusive relationship. He was a drunk, verbally, emotionally, and physically abusive. I thought I couldn't do better since I was disabled with a young son. It's a part of life we never talk about. Thankfully, he was sometimes at his father's house half the time. But still he heard and watched. When I heard him starting verbally on my son is when I knew I had to get out.
What's also sad. Is that men find these younger women and leave their wives and children. For what they think is the greener side. It changes them. His wife says he was never like that with her. You can't compare the 2. Video doesn't lie that he was abusive to Rebekkah right in front of her son. As a mother, his ex and daughter should not be condoning his behavior for any reason. Absolutely no excuse. If you're a real man, you brush off moat comments. It's funny how there's NO video of her hitting him. Just proves to you that he was the abuser
My Mom told me, “I told your Dad once, “if I can’t getcha while you’re awake, I’ll getcha while you’re sleeping…” She said it and forgot about saying it. 20 years later, my Dad brought it up to her and said he slept with one eye open for years after that. My Mom laughed. RIP Mom & Dad.
I’ve always said if you ever put your hands on me you’ll be a fool to close both eyes around me. They’ll never open again.

Very well said 👏
Murder works. Abuse me I'm abusing you back. If I can't outbox you we going martial ! And I ain't stopping until one of us is done.

Seems like the daughter is in denial of her own dads toxic behavior
Extremely. It’s like she didn’t watch the videos, of her dad beating the …. out of her.
@vsbaretummysugastonguetech1540 hardly a beating certainly violent, but that wasn't a beating. You're exaggerating but she's definitely in denial we literally see him doing it.
She's a wicked woman she took his life.
@@godhg9694and he was a wicked man and got exactly what he deserved !it always behoves me to see people with The lords name in there user names and religious avatars being so willing to look at the evidence ignore it and come to a conclusion that only fits there narrative !Not based on fact or reality ! He liked that said wicked life style so he got a wicked death now didn’t he!
Because she’d have to face the reality that she has toxic relationships.
He was so abusive of her. How could his daughters say all the claims of abuse were lies when the camera showed him hitting her time and time again?
She’s not saying they’re lies she’s saying the wife provoked him. Basically, he hit her because she asked for it! 😒🙄 Wonder if she would’ve felt that way if it had been her mom and a stepdad?
Leave...not murder.....simples
They’re delusional & so is the ex. She divorced him bcuz of his alcohol abuse so I’m sure she knows how that makes people different.
Yeah she may have provoked him, and being under the influence he was not able to control his emotions.
My question is, why did his first marriage fail?
Who got his inheritance?
Absolutely! Daughters seem obviously biased and in denial. Imo, although Rebekah did shoot him, it appears that she had battered womens’ syndrome and 10 years seems appropriate to me, 2nd degree murder/crime of passion. This case reminds me of the Betty Broderick case. I believe Betty got life and her late lawyer husband put her through hell. The mental abuse was brutal. I always thought Betty got an unfair trial.
As an outsider looking at this, I see that the husband and wife both were abusive to each other. His family knows him as the sober , great father and husband but alcohol changes everything and people.
great father? he married a crazy stripper and beat her down in front of the kid. wow
A great father that leaves his family to leave with a plastic titted stripper, so he can become the man he always wanted to be in secret. To chase his dark dreams that got him the only fitting reward in the end. The world is a better place with this shithead gone and the lousy mother behind bars. hopefully the son will have a decent foster family.
Regardless of whos to blame, the kids watch a video of their dad smacking his wife around and their answer "you dont know what she did to deserve it". Sounds like a real healthy and well balanced bunch.
That actually sounds rational.
She should leave. Walk away. Press charges. Not watch someone die for 23 minutes
She antagonized him. Women poke and abuse men and then are shocked when the man hits back. Huge double standard. Don't hit men and you won't get hit.
They didn’t use the word deserve, reasons are not justifications just like the woman’s defenders are giving plenty of reasons of why she shot him to death barely avoiding the word deserve
@ErBeary so men are so weak minded that when someone says something mean, instead of responding similarly, they have to get violent? 😂 poor babies
My biggest concern is for her son. I hope he’s ok. He’s witnessed a lot.
Yeah and she put him through that for this man's money. She knew all of that was being filmed. She isn't as dumb blonde as she tries to sound.
Too damn much........that footage of her falling right next to him is heartbreaking....poor boy.
I wonder about her son, too. Hopefully he's well.
Exactly
it's never the childrens' fault :(
The way he threw her in the pool and the hitting...He was an older man who could have been a leader.. He created a world that took his life.. His family makes a lot of excuses.. She's not innocent either.. What a waste.
the definiing of a video with no sound can be easily cast in what ever light the narrator wants it to be casted in, the pool thing she coulda been laughing and giggling, and before that he coulda been playing with the dog. also we dont even know how much footage they looked through.. was it a months worth?? or the span of their whole marriage? was that every instance or was their more clips? i thought u decided he was a miserable person before really seeing the whole picture, of course its in her best interest to say he was a miserable soul now cause she blew his brains out. i mean common she clearly stated she couldnt remeber a single thing about the night and she didnt even remeber shooting him, then she went into saying that she was bargining with him for her life, and he was about to call a hitman.
Hmmm... sounds a lot like victim blaming. Bet you'd have a different tone if some hoe got killed.
Plus, once they become a "angry" drunk there's no going back to happy go lucky drunk anymore. At some point they'll get angry for "whatever" reason. It's the alcohol!
Too much money. Root of all evil

Getting into a relationship with a stripper and doing drugs. What can go wrong? 😂
thats what I was thinking??!!! lol i mean how could being carefree and drunk surrounded by assault weapons be anything but fun...
the booze was the culprit here
Absolutely everything.
Yes I know right LOL 😆 They are both so obviously addictive toxic individuals a blind man could see it. In saying that the ex family sounds bitter and delusional about him and his behaviour.
Never put it in crazy
He was a normal and good husband to his first wife when he was younger, and a good father to his kids, good to his family, but turned to alcohol near the end of his marriage. It seems obvious, he was starting to have a mid life crisis, he starts working out, he lost weight, drinking a lot more, partying like he's a young man in his 20's with no responsibilities, no family, doing drugs, all with his new much younger stripper wife. This just SCREAMS mid life crisis! Being drunk and high every day along with his young wife, he became very physically and verbally abusive to his young wife, he was out of control! And his young wife just as out of control as he was! Disaster was inevitable.
It's the liquor
Well, yeah, no surprises there eh
Douce deserves it. He got what was coming to him. Joker!
Not a midlife crisis, just him wanting to be himself.
You said it all when you said," doing drugs". And booze.
You can't claim someone must be innocent because "he never did that to me," when you literally divorced him because he became someone you no longer knew nor wanted to be with. The ex-wife obviously no longer knows the man he became. It's sickening that they can watch that footage and not only defend him, but blame her.
yeah disgusting
Yeah he turned evil out of resentment, he got tired if being the perfect the ol dude, told by the people he associated with that he was a p....y , his business associates , that's what happens when you surround yourself by the wrong ppl.
Exactly she divorced him and laughed and what do you know he did not hunt her down and kill her which means the murderer had the same option, but chose murder over top of it
You're evil. I'm glad your murdering hero is doing 20 years hard time.
Im literally wondering if the ex wife had something to gain to not bad mouth him.. maybe some of his assets? Or the daughters inherited them and she needs to not publicly bad mouth to still get a piece of the pie..
Such a shame when people are so blinded by sex and partying that they don't realize how toxic their lifestyle has become
Ethics notwithstanding!

He hates the sin, but wants to rescue the sinner. He sees the intent. His heart is so full of love, even to those that were ordered to killed him 😢 he said, "father forgive them, they know not what they're doing". Every time I hear his words of such love, I cry 😢 He loves us all, even while we are sinners. Maybe she find our Lord , so he can heal her and not some religion to follow after.

It is crazy how the ex wife and daughters can claim he wasn’t an abuser when there is literal video proof.
They say that because he was not like that with them, he became a different person due to the drinking drugs and life style and like their friend said she would antagonize him nag to death and start stuff However it doesn't mean he should hit her, she should have left/divorced him period if she was so miserable etc.......
I think they were both crazy. The alcohol and drugs had probably gotten the best of both of them. Seems like he was actually a decent, responsible guy prior to his divorce. The girlfriend may have been the same before she got into stripping.
He probably wasn't. Does no one recognize that when he hits her she's in his face or storming off. Surely she wasn't saying sweet things. Alcohol affects your decision making ability, they drink way too much. Their friend says she instigated it, so she probably verbally provoked him women always know how to attack your insecurities. Being drunk feeling like his manhood was challenged he hits her in retaliation. Which is completely wrong on his part, but she knew what she was doing. Which was wrong on her part. We often say that physical abuse is more wrong than emotional abuse. But I would argue they are equally wrong. At end of the day she shoots him in the head without reason, he was just sitting on the couch trying to call his daughter, she was completely wasted went into the other room to get a gun and shoots the guy. She's a murderer and not like women who are really abused and doesn't deserve the same respect.
No there isn’t! It’s not abuse, it’s self defense!
Well he’s dead.
His ex wife saying he knew she would hurt him is ridiculous. Not once do you see her hitting him. Grief does weird things to people.
I think she was saying it in out of jealousy!
You dont see her hitting him because if you listened to the video it was said they were only showing her side they didn't show his side because if they did we would see her abusing him.
Never seen an ex-wife defend an ex-husband like that. We're missing big chunks of family history here.
sure you belong to *believeallwomen movement. Pathetic.
They already said you didn't see the videos of him being hit by her. And their "friends" who lived with them already said BOTH were violent against each other. So, you only saw ONE SIDE of the full evidence. Nobody has learned even now that you have to wait to see all the evidence before blaming anyone. What are you stupid?
U r SO LOVED Chris Hanson, Anna Garcia, and all of the staff. We love and thank I for all your hard work. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hard to feel bad for him when he did this to his own life. His family was delusional…he was not the good guy they think he was
Yeah no doubt.. that doesn't mean you get to murder that person and ONLY get 20 years. But that's female privilege.
So he deserves to be murdered?
he wasn't and SHE deserves to be in prison too
You ignore his past and only see his reactions to her threats etc ...That video only showed his reaction to her evil threat....
@@It_About_Great_Reset_Tyranny. We are only showed certain clips. I wonder what his previous family were shown, to believe he was threatened by her, because in those shown here, the only thing she could’ve been doing to him was saying something he didn’t like and his actions were totally not justified. It is too bad that neither of them got away from each other. His family said he changed, but then defend him, referring to his previous way of life. I didn’t understand the friends saying she didn’t sound drunk on the 911 call, she sounded drunk to me.
How are people ok being in toxic relationships? Peace is a necessity for me and this seems like a horrible existence.
It is a horrible existence
i'd rather be alone for a thousand years.
*Because people are just toxic, You answered your own question* 😁
Some people crave the excitement of toxic relationships and drama and often the life they are used to. They don't know how to live life any other way. I agree with you that it is a horrible existence. I love a quiet, drama free life and will not tolerate people attempting to drag me in to any toxic situations or relationships anymore. It's important to me to bring my daughter up in a safe, secure environment and lead by example.
I have been in both conditions and definitely prefer peace
Never seen a guy in such a midlife crisis and afraid to get old. Dude acted and dressed like he was a teenager.
He was just embarrassing and his new wife knew it but she married his money. They deserved each other.
Yeah they were both toxic@@ponygirlusa

He seems like a real gentleman, ignoring the fact that he knocked the crap out of her regularly and at a whim. I don't know how his daughters and former wife can ignore what's right before their eyes.
They are blind and think she deserved it.
I totally agree with you. He was a violent bully and got what he deserved.
that what I was thinking, they are acting real stupid
"On a whim"? Really? Watch what she is doing before he hits her. She is agitating him! She knows it's all being recorded.
@@cherrydowns7745 So it's fine to hit a woman if she "agitates" you? I hope all the women in your life see this comment, so they're fairly warned.
I’m so glad the comments are passing the vibe check. I can’t imagine losing my father like that, but if I saw video footage of him being so utterly violent and abusive, I’d definitely not be all over tv saying the woman he did that to was lying. It’s literally on video idk how you can even be in such blatant denial like that. He got what he had coming to him, imo. The thought that she should be locked up for life like the daughter wants is insane.
I'm grossed out by the daughter's comments... there is literal video evidence that he was violent. At minimum she should be acknowledging that her father was half the problem. It's wild to see her defending him like this.
totally agree!! ty for the sane comment thought i wouldnt find this in the comments section. the guy clearly beat and abused her and im glad he's gone. she took the trash out. sucks it cost a son his mother though.
Obviously the ex-wife divorced him because he became an alcoholic. I guarantee there were abusive signs happening while she was still married to him. She just knew when to leave before it got that bad. I think mom and daughter just jealous cause she looked younger and better than them both lol
"He got what he had coming to him"? You filthy animal.
Same. I also don't like that this channel has reduced her to "Stripper murders..." she is more than a past profession. I dont even think she should have been charged with second-degree, there is clear evidence here of perpetual abuse, variety of guns in the house. Its easy to slip into "if I dont, he will". She's known nothing but violence from him.
I like how the daughters who weren't there are so sure their father was not an abuser. Unreal, ma'am the video doesn't lie and even if the wife mouthed off and annoyed him, that's no reason for him to abuse his wife. Smh.
Maybe she liked rough treatment?
@@bullseyenow1 bulls***
Pretend he is an abuser and she is harmless, then u have to admit she is a terrible mother and should not be raising her child, since she does not care for its safety. He stayed in the relationship since he knew she would get half his stuff, she stayed in the relationship to get all of his stuff.
She hit him as well. Her best friends even have confirmed it. I like that there was no reason for him to abuse her, but apparently murder is just fine.
the stripper is lying abusive women lie and say the men are the abusive ones because that helps them and are free to be abusive to the man who can't defend himself now because she is a woman and everyone just believes the women
I love how this reporter always chases after the suspects’ vehicles demanding answers as they drive off 🤣👍
Latina!
‘ Never raised his voice let alone hit me ‘ just because he didn’t do it to you doesn’t mean that he wouldn’t do it to his now wife. How is the ex still in denial after video showed him shoving and throwing her around . Shame on the ex wife
I don’t feel bad for that man at all. Two trash bags ruining the life of an innocent child with their toxicity and abuse. My heart breaks for her son. He was seeing all of this and was probably terrified. I pray he gets the therapy and love he needs and deserves.
Yeh, I wonder where the boy was when the murder happened? That'd mess your mind hearing a gunshot then finding your mom calmly smoking a cig while she's watching a guy die.
21 times the police went there and left this child with these scumbags
Obviously both in fault The hooker made him like that and he was too lame to know better and then he falls for her lifestyle. Nobody deserved to die and of coarse, the kid is the victim here. Abbie, I hope you’re not in a violent relationship. You sound like you’re pissed cause it reminds you of something personal. I don’t wish violence upon anyone.
Do u think he's going to the eternal lake of fire and brimstone?
She didn’t give a steaming $8!t about her son! That’s obvious. Estrella Women’s Prison you have a brand new inmate arriving soon!
Both of them are guilty, both of them are dealing with the consequences. Sad. Especially sad for the kids.
Yes, that's my opinion too 😀
Pure facts.
Neither of them is innocent.
The wedding pic of her, alone... smoking a cigarette was really telling.
I am still not convinced she just decided to wake up and shoot him
People should show this video to their teenagers and ask “do you want to be like this?”
You overestimate today's teens.

@@Southamericangirl42 🥺
In spite of their toxic relationship, he was a despicable person. He constantly beat her and did so in front of the child. I don't understand why she continued to live in such a horrible situation. I don't feel sorry for him.
statistically, the most dangerous time (aka potentially lethal time) in an abused woman's life is when she is leaving her abuser. when as a society will we stop blaming the abused person for "not leaving"? some literally do and they are murdered during or after leaving. i have two people close to me in life, who thankfully escaped with their life. they were the lucky ones because they had family to help and make threats to the abuser.
@@hanhes
Because not leaving a blatantly abusive relationship for months is enabling them to stay in an abusive relationship you knob.
"We shouldnt tell them to leave, someplace somewhere someone left a abusive relationship got murdered!!!"
So instead you're wanting them to stay in the relationship for an extended period of time longer... which will result in them eventually being murdered. Dumbass
She stayed with him for his money & what it could buy her!
- Unfortunately there's a price to pay for leading such a sin-ridden life!
@@andybricks576 True. Marion knows full well why she lived in the situation. As does everyone else. Marion's just being dishonest.
Bcs she feared for her life. It's when you try to leave an abuser that you are the in the most danger.
About 70% off the women who are killed by their spouse or BF are so when they try to leave.
There is no protection for her or her son if she left. He could easily track her down & finnish her off. Cops can do nothing before he does something to her. That's not anywhere near adequate protection
I love that her entire existance is reduced to nothing more than a "stripper" it's actually kind of pathetic since he was an abuser...maybe reduce his identity to wife beater, that seems fair.
Yeah, but we all know that whores love only money. He should have kept that in mind.
@@Cool1ForYou RUDE thing to say she is no whore
knock it off!!@@Cool1ForYou
Thank you!
She is so much more that what she did for a living for a while.
Not that there is anything wrong with it, but you can change jobs, but once an abuser and wife beater, and wife-over-the-floor-dragger, animal beater, etc, it's very common that you stay that way.
So yes, if we start to labeling: He was a wife beater, she is a mother.
I agree 10000% with this statement!
I was in an abusive relationship. When I got pregnant he stopped hitting me but I knew once I had the baby it would continue. I told him I was coming to Canada to have the baby and come right back. I never returned. Today I'm a nurse and a single mom. I'd rather raise my son on my own than in a family where he's seeing his dad beat his mom. He never saw his son and hate my guts to this day. We haven't spoken for years. Yes I wish my son had his dad around but I also didnt want him to be the example for my son. He could have killed me if I stayed and that was enough for me to get out.
That poor baby. I truly hope he is somewhere safe. No kid should have to witness this shit!!
Blah blah. You women always playing victim. You not innocent
Beautiful
❤❤❤❤ Thank God you got away!!!!!
I went through something similar … the best thing you can do for your son is find a good man to be in his life. A genuinely good man. Get therapy if you don’t know how to pick one of those (seriously) and you and your son will be just fine❤ my only regret is staying single and raising my son alone because he really needed a father figure and I was too scared to pick one honestly. You did a good job getting away from him!! God bless you and your son !
Thank goodness you got away! And I'm glad he never tried to come after you.
We're raising entire generations of people like this now
"We" have been raising our children liberally for a lot longer than that.

@@tribeofjudah9330right I almost did by the hands of my ex because I walked away and she stabbed me im no Saint though it works both way in my eyes
The first story, sorry daughter, your dad was a piece of crap! It doesn't matter if she antagonized him or not. That was pure abuse. Yes, she killed him, that is also bad. But I believe he lived in the land he created. Scum who kicks his pet? Not sure what the ex was all about. but, he didn't have tattoos, gages stretching his ears, or punching his ex-wife either, but he changed, didn't he?!
Let’s not give one sided arguments here.
She tried to create those instances. If I walked up to Mike Tyson and pestered him, you would cheer for him beating my shit in and I know you would cause it actually happened and was a viral clip. She instigated fights hoping the would occur and wants to cry victim after the results it got her? Results that never left her bloodied, bruised, beaten, or battered as well?
Not justifying his behavior, but removing all accountability from the aggressor isn’t the move my guy. He is guilty for hitting people. She is guilty for intentionally trying to start fights that lead to that as well as the murder she commited.
@@NoodlepenisI have to agree with you. I will agree that the abuse looked horrible and he was wrong for that, but I feel like if she was actually afraid of him she wouldn’t have antagonized him like she did. Also, it wasn’t just his kids and ex talking badly about the new wife, everyone they interviewed said she pestered and antagonized him.
Yes he did change and it didn’t happen until he got with that piece of s*** …… not excusing his behavior because he was abusive but she taunted him all day long just because she could ……she’s disgusting
@@nicolesallie5278 or he was being his real self. You're putting all of his behavior on her. He was a grown man. He'd already changed, that's why his first wife left him in the first place.

@@jsun68 No ….. I’m not putting it all on her but I don’t care too much for women who carry themselves like she did ….. she wasn’t no angel
Even when his daughters watch him beat on his wife they still make excuses and call her evil. They were both a mess and a man should never strike, push, punch, pull hair or drag a woman around by the hair. She got the last hit and unfortunately it cost him his life and she will sit in prison for twenty years. His daughters need to wake up. Their dad was an abuser to this woman.
Daddy paid their bills and continues to do so even in death. Their loyalty is to $$ as much as it is to him.
@@ashleybushaw4071 right, I wanted to slap them. So annoying. Little spoiled brats.
One of those ladies, Karen, is his ex wife. He had children with her. I can’t understand how the ex's logic for proving his innocence was that he never hit her during their relationship together. It’s on video, plain as day, that he DID hit Rebecka, so her point is completely irrelevant. That really made me realise that no matter how much evidence is presented, they’ll always want to protect his status as a victim who did no wrong. IMO, they were both in the wrong in the end.
Leave...not murder.....simples
Last blow? Kill a man in cold blood. If she found him abusive, why didn't she separate? Stay away from me lady "last blow", your husband takes care of himself. Are you also a stripper?

This story is a great reminder of what excessive drinking can actually do. Who knows, maybe they were good people before they started having alcohol for breakfast. That aspect is sad.
I can't feel bad for him , the abuse and humiliation is evil. Ive seen alot of abuse and the humiliation is what sticks most , my dad pouring food over my mom's head bc it was disgusting according to him , his favorite food , my mom had been cooking all day. Another time he just opened the fridge and pour stuff on her. I'm not justifying murder but I understand how this can happen.

@@TheMackoftheyear She is saying that she believes that the woman doesnt remember. Thats a very valid point from a professed alcoholic. I can't imagine drinking to the point of not remembering.

Although clearly he smacked her around, I argue abuse can also be emotionally abusive, I argue they abused each other, in a alcohol fueled nightmare of a relationship. Co-dependent and alcoholic .
You don't believe all women, you believe your eyes and the facts. women are not believed plenty.
I would also argue that in many abusive relationships it goes both ways. I had a friend that was abusive to men, and she would verbally push a man beyond his limits. The good guys left, the bad guys hit her ,until she made them leave.

How can his ex-wife say that Rebecca’s accusations are just the lies of a pathological liar when the surveillance cameras clearly show him abusing her?

Boggles the mind.
The ex wife and kids need therapy, blaming her for being beat is just disgusting.. their father wouldn’t have been murdered if he didn’t abuse her.
"blaming her for being beat is just disgusting..." Perhaps so is blaming him for being murdered. But I'm having trouble working up any feelings for either of these people. They just seem like users. He left behind his family for a hot chick, and she seemed to be in love with his money.
Witnesses say he put up the cameras, so what happened to the rest of the videos where is the sounds, was she harassing abusing him to give an "excuse" to murder him? No witnesses to support the majority of what she claims, and calmly smoking a cigarette after shooting him says a lot.
I agree, what I saw was a woman harassing him till he reacted the way she wanted because she knew his actions were being recorded! She was not an abused wife, she was a husband agitator! That's what I saw!

There is nothing more infuriating than family members gaslighting abuse victims by telling them that their family member was "nothing like that" In these cases two things can be true about a person - he may never have abused YOU but he may have been abusive to someone else's mother or daughter or sister. Sit with that. Let it sink in. The man you know abused a woman and that woman was not you or anyone in your family... but he is an abuser ... it is possible.
I bet he took revenge on his wife for divorcing him on this poor young woman
Nobody deserves to lose their life, but he was abusive as hell.
I’m sure she was no angel either, but for the daughter to see those videos and claim “he was nothing like that” - that’s denial right there.
I think they were both really bad for each other and they brought out the worst in each other. 20 years is appropriate in my opinion. She’s a killer but not a monster.

Does his family think it was alright to beat her.
Apparently, they do. Very sad.
The violence never subsides, it only worsens.

How many times do you see these young girls, generally they’re strippers Or involved in some questionable trade as well as partiers. They latch on to a rich older man, and that man ends up dead down the road, you see it all the time. I seen in those videos her instigating him, I think she was setting him up, Setting up her alibi. His first wife and his first family say he never got angry, and never lifted a finger to his wife, kids, nothing and all of a sudden he becomes this terror, Doesn’t make sense. And Rebecca has her son witnessed this lifestyle for how many years, she’s where she belongs.

Thankyou.. Best comment on here.
The ex wife was with him before he became a raging alcoholic. The daughter doesn’t want to remember her father as a alcoholic abuser but it’s on video. He repeatedly hits her. I saw no video of her hitting him. With no sound we can’t hear what happens before he attacks her but that doesn’t justify attacking her either. The daughter also only heard her fathers side of the story. The little boy would have better knowledge of their home life and what was going on. He saw it.
Right WTH! The way he knocked her around was pathetic!
So sad. agree 100%. Im not saying she should’ve killed him but a woman saying that it’s because she wouldn’t stop talking that she was getting beat? no ma’am.
@@raimeyewens7518 The ex wife also seems more alpha than he was. He bowed to her so to speak. The whole situation is ick! After seeing the home security, the ex and the daughter are just willfully blind.
I tried so hard not to laugh but the shooters world shirt got me
I think it’s ironic that the daughter’s swear up and down that he was “ a nice guy” when the videos shows he’s a total monster!!!
He 's a total psycho for sure.
Rebekah should’ve taken it to trial!
Poor lady:-(
It's weird that his Ex and daughter sees him abuse his wife and refuses to accept that she was a victim as well? I'm not saying that she had a right to shoot him in that particular moment when he was on the phone, not physically fighting her... but to not hold him, in anyway accountable for his part... they're tone deaf.
I guess he installed cameras as he believed she was going to kill him. How can you beat a woman like this and not think that in the back of your mind. He didn’t deserve to die, but she didn’t deserve that level of abuse.
I don't agree with plea deal should have been before a jury.
There’s no way people watch that guy knock her upside her head on multiple occasions and claim she’s the aggressor? That’s insanity.
Nah, that's the ✨️PATRIARCHY ✨️

Both were alcoholics. Abusive aggressive behaviours and an obvious outcome.
Happy the comments passed the vibe check y’all. I thought I was losing it for how I felt. He didn’t just hit her, he smacked her out of existence at times. He wasn’t this man that they used to know. I was abused by someone, no one believed me because in front of everyone else - he was the person everyone wanted to be around. He has a wife now, I don’t know if he hurts her. At the time I was in college and we were together for 4 years partying, and living our life. Partying changes people. Maybe him having a wife and children now and not being in college partying has changed him. But regardless, the first time he hit me was on my 21st birthday in a NYC bar. He got kicked out, and I chased him down trying to get him to take me to the hotel, getting a smack every time I approached him. I was young and stupid. But a person put me in a taxi and said “it’s time to go, leave him behind - I work for a domestic violence line.” I don’t know if she really did, but I’m glad she did that. I even went to an nyc cop in a park - flirting with girls - he did absolutely nothing for me but this stranger did. This was 6 months into our relationship. The day I left him he hit me on both sides of my head at the same time. I weighed roughly 115 pounds. He weighed 190 at least. I fell to the ground. I pretended to go to work that morning and called my Dad. Told him everything. I never went back. Moral of the story, I still see him here and there. He lives his life like he’s never abused me for 4 years. And I’m sure his friends and family think he never touched me aggressively. Just because someone doesn’t abuse you, doesn’t mean they don’t have the ability to do it to someone else.
You let it go 4 years what a trooper try 45 years of abuse to raise two family's then get ill and then when I'm no use anymore she takes it all and leaves 4 years you have no idea by the looks of it you got ten more try's
I know the type, and I guarantee you, a guy that hits women, does it because he enjoys it, so you weren't the last one he found an excuse to abuse. So glad you got out when you did, before he maimed you.
Leopards don't change their spots. Have no doubt he is abusing his current wife.
@@pamelamccarthy1412 You know what saddens me? It’s kind of a trauma I have but I’m going to be open. I didn’t call the cops ever on him. I did however on the last day, tell my parents. I expressed to common friends. (Who overall ignored my cries and believed him while he was calling my parents apologizing saying he was suicidal and he wants to work it out bc he loves me) And I tried calling his Mom, to have her get him in counseling, and she told me what happened between us, should stay between us. So, my trauma is also - because I didn’t get police reports when he hit me, or go to the police ever - May his wife be enduring the same abuse if not worse? That scares me. And I feel it’s my fault.
who cares if he's happy or not it sounds lame but you need to be happy and when you are you wont give a crap if he's dead or alive Ive been there its a hard road but you got to be happy do what it takes.I got stories to and time will tell I've been hurt by cheating and lies from women and I didnt have to do anything for revenge. they got theirs hearing about their lives 8 and 10 years later and it was cool not caring one bit im not going to say I didnt Toung and cheek it a little ...lol, but hey.
I was split from ex. I got home from work, i was in kitchen on phone with mom n bro. Ex walks in, starts yelling at me (mom hearing it), i was leaning over taking my boots off, he shoved me hard against stove (bent handle) so i right hooked him with heal of boot, knocked him to floor, stood over him n told him next time i wont stop....get out of my house. He got on phone with my mom n bro whinning n my mom was laughing n she told him DONT YOU REMEMBER SHES THE BABY WITH 6 OLDER BROTHERS????? YOUR NOT REAL SMART! He left i got on phone my bro was furious. I said why you mad, you taught me to not take any crap.
Didnt see ex again till 20 yrs later. 🤧🤮
Pity she didn't leave and ask for help because it was quite obvious he battered and abused that woman!
That is the question? So these women need to be taught better to get the hell out after the first physical violence when there's alcohol involved especially
the amount of abuse that she endured is crazy...slapped the you know what out of her...imagine all the other things we didn't see.
Exactly! And the clowns that blame her entirely make me vomit! It's right there for the world to see... imagine if there were not cameras
And threw her in the pool
Donald's daughters voice drives me to pew pew myself
Same! Couldn’t stand the sound of it 🙉
Vocal fry.
Sounds like they was on drugs during the interview
lol ! Pew pew yourself !!! Lol
I felt like it was slow motion. It was so annoying
The ex and daughter are in straight denial. Wow!!!
I’ve seen a lot of denial with people, but this had to be the worst.
I bet they saw the video and said it was fake or set up.
Violence is not equal to antagonism. Give me a break. The end result of this is no surprise. Evil is as evil does. Neither one are innocent but his abuse of her trumps her being an idiot. Toxic all the way around.
Imagine blindly standing up for your father's evil abusive behavior. Such a cope. Good riddance. He's lucky it didn't happen sooner!
way to just fall in line..... its really easy to build a narrative around video clips with no volume. sure its not right he hit her, but its in her best interest right now to turn everyone of them clips into him just being a monster and coming after her. for all we know for that pool clip he coulda been playing with the animal and she came out to give him some shit so he went to throw her in the pool playfully like they both coulda been laughing while it was happening. i mean look at all the videos on the internet where someone in thrown into a pool if u take away the volume and u knowing thtat its playful, it looks just like a horrible assault.
@@soulsreaper7145 Yea and I'm sure he was just "having a laugh" with that roundhouse slap too. Get a grip
i didnt state that one because id say thats pretty cut and dry, but some of the other ones i think are questionable without sound to get a better picture. im sorry that somewhere in life some alcoholic fucked u up so bad, u cant even look at other situations objectively without just coming to a guilty conclusion.@@gobbledegook1
@@soulsreaper7145Wtf dude, he beat her! No excuse is good enough. I’m not saying she was right in doing it, just that maybe karma came for him. He was a pos!
@@soulsreaper7145 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Anyone who has ever been “black-out” drunk knows that it is absolutely possible to have zero recollection and do things completely out of the ordinary. I remember my alcoholic father trying to eat a stick of butter when he was black out drunk once. Not an excuse, but after seeing how hammered she was in the interrogation, I totally believe she doesn’t remember.
Except that after awhile you do begin to remember fragments of memories and you eventually do piece things together. I only know this from experience, having been blacked out several times myself. I know from experience that when you go to court and read the written testimony against you it definitely all clicks into place. Just sayin from my perspective.
@@arborian2112 yeah, everyone is different though. I’ve been there myself and hearing stories about things i did didn’t trigger any memories for me. Sad all around. Alcohol is evil. It really seems to have caused all of this including his abuse toward her. I had a cop tell me once that about 75% of DV calls involve alcohol. Meanwhile, I’ve heard zero incidents of abuse at the hands of someone on cannabis.
That’s a lie! You do not always remember. I stopped drinking in college because my last black out and I still don’t recall what I did. I’m just glad I was in my own space.
“I remember my alcoholic father trying to eat a stick of butter when he was black out drunk … [..] but after seeing how hammered SHE was [..] I totally believe SHE doesn’t remember
@@Camden-z3m I’m referring to the woman in the video
They were both terrible people. I understand not wanting to think of your father in that light, but it's the truth.
I'm 6'4" 240 lbs and Never would I ever think about putting my hands on a woman. I think men that abuse women and children are... I won't even say it. If that was my father doing that I would be disgusted and would NEVER defend it.
As a domestic abuse survivor, thank you.
I've been hit by women. I don't like it, but I'm never hitting a woman.
I imagine that would take a lot of self restrain Terry. Good for you.🕊
you were brought up by good parents.
Very easy to say. It’s clear you’ve never spend extensive time around women. Men have physical capabilities. Women have verbal. I am in no way condoning violence against women but there is usually never evidence of the things a woman can say to you to drive you over the edge. This man’s ex wife said he never lifted a finger or his voice against her. That should tell you a lot.
The ONLY part I believe is about how the night he died he was probably messing with her saying he was going to put a "hit" on her. He even grabbed his phone and called his daughter and left a message. He did NOT say "hey it's dad", so she probably thought it was someone he was calling to kill her. 🤯🤷♀️
Excellent point!!
I thought that too. He was talking shit but she believed him.
She was a brave woman but some suffer with disastrous consequences so she probably thought it was her only recourse.
Yes that’s a great point very true!!
Yep
I don’t care what anyone says to you, putting your hands on them is not excusable. He used her as a punching bag.
It's always especially shameful when women deny the abuse of other women.
Can't stand unhealthy toxic and deadly relationships.. it disgusts me
Same
When you are in a relationship, often one of the two (but not both) is unreasonable and impossible to live with. I have been with women who had an attitude that everything I do is wrong and everything I neglected to do is wrong.
As someone who was completely sober, abused for the last year of a 4 year relationship, and almost killed on my 30th birthday… if I had a gun, I probably would’ve done the same thing. Thank God I didn’t, but I almost lost my life on the way out.. I have a cerebral contusion and have to deal with issues with my brain for the rest of my life… his family to this day calls him a “stand up guy” and doesn’t believe he’s capable of what was done even with proof.… I wish I could feel bad watching this, but I can’t find it in me to.
I'm so sorry you were put through all of that. You deserve the best in life. I wish you well❤
@@donnamariedavidson5065 thank you! I’m still healing overall but I have definitely been seeing brighter days ♥️☀️
My heart goes out to you. I'm sorry you had to live through that. I hope you're safe now. 🙏🏼
You are a Brave Woman.🤗Happy for you, that you got to escape from the phsyco.
I'm so sorry, I too have been there and I agree with you. I got out just in time, before it was my life or his. You are so strong and you are a survivor! Sending love and hugs 🙏❤
I’m honestly surprised that the ex wife is defending him, it still doesn’t excuse abusing someone, get divorced, get away. Once you raise your hand you’re guilty.
All THIS IS FILMED!? I'd rather be single than SICK with someone else.
I don’t get how his ex wife says he wasn’t a bad guy. He was on camera beating her and abusing her. How is that a good guy.
If he was so great why didn't she stay married to him?
Yes this is unreal. The ex wife should be ashamed of justifying this abuse in front of her daughters
The alcohol clearly changed him. Can't be a coincidence that the ex wife left him after he starting drinking excessively. Either she left him before the abusive personality came out, or she left him cause he was abusive but won't admit it because she doesn't want her kids to look at him differently.
The ex wife and daughter cannot admit he’s a bad guy. It’s protecting their egos to call the stripper “evil” and to exonerate the man they love. They don’t want to be wrong.
