She was really weird bcs both her previous husbands were murdered n she strikes up a relationship with a murderer. I think she had a lot of screws loose, but anyone who would have a romantic relationship with a murderer would have.
Unsolved mysteries was so needed. It gave a voice to victims, families who lose family to crimes, missing family, that the police or national news didn’t care to help or cover. I think unsolved mysteries solve more crimes than the police.
He knows the answe to all the stores he shared even the ones without explanation...im sure he guides yhpse involved and is with those who have passed on who were a part of each story
Michelle’s case is infuriating to me. So much proved it was homicide. Then after they finally agreed it was homicide a jury was like “nah fam” and he was acquitted. Wtf. How.
I think he had a good defense lawyer. It has also been proven that good looking people are acquitted more often and I guess he was a handsome guy. It really sounds like a miscarriage of justice and I think that's why he or anyone on his side refused to be interviewed. If you have money for a good lawyer and looks you're more likely to get away with murder and it sounds like he did sadly.
He’s guilty as f. All the evidence was stated here: www.reddit.com/r/TrueCrimeDiscussion/comments/b5hgwh/did_the_jury_get_it_right_in_the_michelle/?. He probably has a shitty life.
Good attorneys probanly. Same reason OJ was acquitted. In a perfect world, all criminals would be found guilty, no innocents would be prosecuted, and there would be no bias ever in any courtroom. Sadly we don't live in a perfect world. I wish we did.
The Federali's don't screw around, you disrespect them and they will not hesitate to kill you. I was robbed by them in Matamoros and counted myself lucky that's all they did.
rowdy blacks shouldn't fuck with the cops in mexico. they get away with it in America cus they're scared of being called racist, they think they can get away with it down there.
@@user-jm8bj1hd3d I just watched an episode of Forensic Files where they discounted someone as a suspect because he willingly passed two polygraph tests. Turns out his DNA was all over the crime scene, it just took someone new to the case to test it. He wasn't even a serial killer, she was his only victim and it was a crime of chance in the moment. He was just evil, like her husband. Another episode of Unsolved Mysteries a man was given polygraphs and hypnosis and in both he lied. Turns out his story about 'two men picking her up in a truck' wasn't true and he killed her. That's why polygraph are no long substancial evidence and can't be used as proof in court.
why was a man convicted of murder and serving life without parole transferred to a minimum security prison? It’s almost as if they wanted him to escape. Minimum security prisons are for those with short sentences with no incentive to escape. American courts might as well have given him a ride to whatever destination he wanted.
the show side-stepped that process. But typically there is someone involved in convincing the parole board that he's been a model prisoner and can be given some leniency. I agree that a lifer should not be put in a low security situation.
I truly don’t understand that either. If I were looking at life in prison and they sent me to one of those no way I’m staying. Who would? Medium security I can understand but it would take a very special case to transfer a lifer to minimum security.
I suffered a brain hemorrhage when I was six weeks old. In the hospital, the story goes, I had so many iv's in me that the doctors ran out of places to stick me. While I had health issues throughout my childhood as a result, I survived. The survival rate of a brain hemorrhage is an even 50/50, and I have heard countless stories of full grown adults who have died from it (never come across anyone who survived). I cannot comprehend how or why a six week old baby survived an ordeal like that. The only explanation is the people that my grandmother enlisted to pray for me. The power of prayer saved me.
I believe many doctors lie with their educated guesses. I also survived my h been kept from me my entire life. Like what happened to my mother found out yesterday the woman that was not my mother. Never have I felt so orphaned in my life. Yes. Answered inform truth. An entire life of lies.
I don’t get it....was a proper autopsy never conducted on Michelle?? It would have determined beyond doubt whether the injuries were consistent with a fall or consistent with a beating.
He killed her. No newly wed sits and plays Solitare, and if they were fighting as much as he claimed, why the fuck would you get marired in the first place? He was having second thoughts, didn't wanna go through the process and expense of a divorce, so he killed her.
@@annnee6818 Because he passed the test twice. Therefore people who believe he's guilty will say they are unreliable. But if he failed the test then you would be saying something like "He failed the test twice so he must be guilty". Not necessarily you in particular but you get the point.
@@Brandon-rq3ys Yeah. It doesn't make a difference whether someone passed or failed it, it's unreliable in any case and just shouldn't be used at all was my point. I'm just shocked how few people know this which is why I keep banging on about it. Polygraphs are pseudoscience and are only used in the states as far as I know (certainly not Europe and western style democracies) which I find quite embarrassing, dunno about you...
Pssshh!!!I’ll go to the kitchen, I ain’t scared.I’m just gonna wake somebody up and ask them to come with me, grab my 🔦 🔪🔫 ✝️ yeah...I ain’t scared bruh👀👀
I seen this story a few times. I’m so angry with my own culture. I always wanted to go to Mexico but after this hell no. My mother even got stuck there once and that the police are so corrupt.
Remember the story of missing girl Nyleen kay Marshall was on UM and Cayleigh Elises channel. She went missing from a national park and they beleive she was abducted due to creepy letters the mother kept getting with details only known to her. She went to Mexico to look for her and was murdered, found hung and supposedly took her own life after overdosing. 😓😓😓😓
Truly one of the greats, a fine gentleman and a great actor, Robert Stack died at age 84 of a heart attack on May 14, 2003 in Beverly Hills, California.
I saw a documentary once where a psychologist explained that these men have nothing but time to dedicate to lonely women. Men on the outside have jobs and other things to focus on and men in prison have time to write them letters, call them, think about them etc. The psychologist explained that the extra time they dedicate makes all the difference.
@@silvervalleystudios2486 Ok but nowhere in my reply did I say it made sense. I literally said that it explained that way by a psychiatrist in a documentary. I didn't say that women should do that or that it was ok.
I wouldn't call it desperate. She didn't need him that bad more like pathetic. But people do really dumb stuff when they don't realize they do have worth. She lost everything. She must have been going through a life trauma
Donna was my mother she was gone for 15 years the statute of limitations on helping someone break out of prison is seven so the statute of limitations had already ran out so they couldn’t prosecute her if they were going to she was willing to pay the price but she did come back home and got to spend the rest of her life with her family and her new grandkids
Lonely and desperate is not a good combo when attracting a mate. You will usually attract the bottom of the barrel, people who prey on your lack of self-love.
What a sick woman - Donna getting obsessed w/ that man and abandoning her kids. How awful for them. Loosing both dads, then their mom running off and leaving them for a criminal, just to have a boyfriend. - wow
Very sad.Every single mom I know they make it known that their children are their top priority and to me, that makes them more attractive.I can’t imagine the heartbreak them kids went through.
Jeremy Witherell did it. "He passed a polygraph twice." Who the hell cares? By the time this episode aired in the late 90s; people should have known how easy it is to "beat" a polygraph by remaining calm no matter what they ask you. When I was a kid I asked my mom why people are always hooked up to those machines on cop shows. She explained how they work and my response was something like "that's kinda dumb" and I never forgot how that made her crack up and laugh.
Apparently you're allowed to assist in a prison break and harbour a fugitive with impunity. What kind of a justice system grants a murderer serving a life sentence, minimum security where a 4 foot fence is all that stands between him and freedom.
Both of Donna's previous husbands had been murdered! Maybe, on some subconscious level, she felt like a dangerous husband wouldn't get killed. It's totally irrational, but subconscious things often are.
Me neither. The fact that 1 of his friend saw him in a police car and they didn't even ask him to identify the officers in that car is so fishy. No records of him ever get to the station hesaid. Well it is because he was never brought to the station..!!!! Everything about this case is just not right
You're in another country and drinking heavily and yet have the balls to talk shit at the cops in corrupt Mexico. The results of such an encounter are plainly obvious!!!!!
I visited Charlene Marie Richard on 5-24-2020 . Her grave is beautiful. My husband needed prayer . I had a wonderful experience while I was there . Im going back soon. Bless Charlene Marie and RIP. little Angel😇🙏🙏
I've been wanting to go there since watching this story..ive said her prayer on and off many times over the years esp in tough times..just started again
As a Louisianan, and who lives not far from the cemetery where Charlene Richard’s grave is, I can assure you that you do not hear of the countless people who pilgrimage to our area and are never healed. Due to our French-Canadian ancestry, Roman Catholic superstitions abound throughout southern Louisiana. It is desperate, lonely people giving their time and money to an institution whose leaders think about nothing more than spiritual bondage to tradition and material donations to programs. It is offensive, it is sad, but it is true!
Agree. I understand more than anyone, as a single mother, that it's lonely and men like that are very manipulative. However, as a mother, I put my child first and would not ever help a known criminal.
So, let me get this straight. This lady can aid in the escape of a convicted killer and not have to suffer any consequences, due to being lonely and vulnerable. Get the hell out of here 🤦♂️
Certainly part of a case of benevolent sexism. But part of me thinks this was just the cops hoping to entice her to come back and actually face charges because there's no way what she did wasn't illegal and inexcusable. I'm laughing at imagining a scenario where a lonely and desperate man helps a convicted killer escape her punishment and the cops saying "oh he was just lonely!".
Everyone knows that in Tiajuana the Federales own the streets. This guy didn't have enough sense to be a gentleman and the Feds were glad to take him down a notch. A 'notch' is bigger in Mexico.
He got "stupid drunk" in a foreign country, decided to turn his "gangster" on, with the Mexican Police. Who were having absolutely none of his bullshit..
@@raysplace6548 yup bad time too have an attitude..its partly his fault why that happened..u be arrogant n disrespectful towards the wrong person..that can be it for u..the brother is lucky they didnt involve him in the beatdown as well
Passing a polygraph and letting someone off the hook based on it is as bad as flunking a polygraph and assuming the person did it. There’s a reason results aren’t admissible in court.
Jeremy Witherell changed his story so many times but despite this, Jeremy Witherell clung to one of his attorneys, his face awash in tears of joy that he had just been found innocent of the death eight years ago of his first wife, Michelle. Wow!
I don’t get how anyone can marry someone in prison. I can love you all the same but damn it, it’s not happening. If you go to prison we either getting a divorce/not getting married. Secondly why would you tell a drunk person to walk or trail BEHIND you? Why would you walk away from him?
1. She's really desperate. Two of her husbands were murdered. I think she believes that this guy is a changed man and I think he is. He could've killed her after she helped him out of prison but he didn't. I think the reason he broke out of prison is because of her existance in his life. 2. I think he's had enough of his brother's drunk attitude.
Yeah I don't get it either. You can't go home with a prisoner or spend time with them outside the prison walls. It would be a horribly lonely existence
Thanks for for another episode of unsolved mysteries The first story Michelle Didn't comment Suicide jeremy wetherell hit her with Something and pushed her off the damn balcony to collect money and he gott Away with it period truly sad😪
As someone who lives in San Diego I can't believe that someone would be stupid enough to start trouble on that side of the border! 🤨 That would be straightout suicide!
Mexico has a known history for satanic ritual killings, corruption, and racisim , Malcom X grandson was beat to death down their, a few other anericans tho white was also murdered this way taken by mexican police and killed later , mexico is a evil place full of horror and innocent blood stay away from that zombie waist land.
Victim or not, Donna Brown help in his escape. There was also nothing said about her being held against her will, in going home to see her children. Choosing a convicted murderer over your own children is such an insult, especially when a murderer(s) killed her first *_TWO_* husbands. Don't need someone whose clever at manipulation when it comes to someone whose mentally not all together there. I'd like to know how she paid for gas & car insurance that whole time she was following him from prison to prison....

22:20 I'm so sick of the "too dumb to know right from wrong" excuse. She knew exactly what she was doing. She was living with and hiding a convicted murderer.
That's the first prison I've heard of where an inmate and female visitor can walk around holding hands, and somebody can bring them shoes.. or anything else... After 3 yrs missing : 'Hi, it's me - Mom'. ..'Mom who?'
Hi this is Sherry Nickerson my mother is on one of these episodes she is Donna Brown I wanted to let everybody know that back in 2000 she got sick and came back home Michael went to the prison and turned himself in by going to the front gate and telling them his name he was not captured. my mother was not convicted of a crime because the statute of limitations for that crime is seven years they were gone 15 years .My mother knew she had made mistakes she missed us and we miss her very much she never considered herself a victim and neither did my brother nor I did. The show was aired never really to get my mom to come home but to capture Michael they just made it look this way so they could try to get my mother to reach out but she never did not until the year 2000. She died in 2017 and she was a great mother and she got to know her grandchildren and they loved her very much.
This lady lost two husbands to murderers and then decided to marry one? I don't think that's quite what they mean by "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em!"
Guess she thought if I marry one of them then they would be less likely to be killed since they carry weapons and have a different Outlook and could notice danger.
My experience in Tijuana 1959 - I parked my car on the street by the motel I was staying at, the next morning my car had a notice on the windshield - we have your license plates - Tijuana Police - I had to pay $100 to get them back
I am glad Donna Brown was found. I was afraid she had been killed since there was nothing to stop her from returning to her family, no legal ramifications for assisting in the prison escape.
My mother wasn’t captured she came back home because she was dying and wanted to be with her family so Michael went to the prison went to the front gate and told him he was they didn’t capture him like they said on the show it was completely different.
I can't believe Donna Brown didn't get some kind of punishment for aiding and abetting a criminal!! I can't believe her kids are like "ya just come see your grandkids." If Donna is an innocent victim of charm and persuasion than so is everyone who picks up a gun or robs a bank... If someone's mind is that malleable they can marry a man in prison for life, break him out, and hide him for almost 8 years, they are not innocent! Unbelievable.
TheOneanjel first of all I think that you might need your story a little bit straightened up he have a life sentence but if you know anything a life sentence doesn’t exactly mean a life sentence anymore you might want to check on that the second part my mom never claimed to be a victim of anything third they were gone 15 years she was not convicted of a crime because the statute of limitations for that crime is seven years they were gone 15 so just to straighten things out for you might want to start following up a little bit

There is something wrong with our legal system and there is something wrong with Donna brown. How can a cold blooded murderer be allowed to get married at a maximum security prison? How can a cold blooded murderer be transferred to a minimum security institution so he can escape? How can Donna Brown not be charged with aiding and abetting the escape of this murderer? How can Donna Brown choose a murderer to the point that she literally abandoned her children for him? This whole thing is fucked up!!!
Antonio Acevedo the judicial system transferring brown to a minimum security prison is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen. It was essentially a get out of jail free card. Why the hell would a man serving life stick around when he could easily escape? American courts wanted him free I guess. 🤦🏾♂️
I guess that the same stupidity that you mentioned is the cause of law enforcement not charging Donna Brown for harboring a fugitive or aiding and abetting an escape. It is beyond my understanding. It is beyond my understanding that a convicted murderer is allowed to get married in prison? Who the fuck would want to get married to a prison lifer? What kind of future and security can he provide this lady? This case is one for the books. @@dantegood2195
MissDroplette My mother never lied to me about not ever being with him we always knew she was with him don’t know what you’re talking about but Donna was my mother might wanna get your facts straight
I’m not sure how other states work but in Oklahoma when Michael was first convicted and put on death row they switched it and they weren’t allowed to put people on death row anymore so they transferred his sentence to life well that doesn’t really mean life and so the longer you go on in the better you become as a prisoner you get change to different securities a prisons throughout Oklahoma when they got married they got married in a prison called MacLeod which is not maximum it’s like a medium security prison and I know all this because Donna was my mother once Michael got I little better at being a good prisoner they sent him to a work release prison in Muskogee and that’s how she was able to break them out they release them so they could go get jobs during the day and she was waiting for them and they left
SoDonna Brow had 2 husbands that were murdered wow that is horrible, maybe that made her very vulnerable, but I do not think she was manipulated on that level. She was with him bc she wanted to be...Leaving your kids though?? That is not an option for me
I am blown away that she helped this murderer escape and hide from authorities and not be charged criminally. I'm with you about her abandoning her children for this low-life. You don't find love in a maximum security prison, but I guess Donna didn't know that, but I hope that I am not judging her.
Ahh love Unsolved Mysteries! I was just a kid watching this. Would come home from school and watch it. Robert Shack and his voice can never ever be replaced. I tried watching the newer episodes but didn't like it because Robert Shack wasn't the host :(
Balcony Death; I know through experience those injuries could be sustained by the fall. If you are flying face first at the ground one instinct is to pull your arms up to shield your head which will break your wrist(s), Another instinct is to turn your head which can damage your eye and jaw but not impact your nose. However, taking into consideration the distance from the building she impacted does confirm that she dove or was thrown from the balcony as she would have been flying face first off of the balcony. Take Care All
@Tangerine Sky333 If you put your hands out as if to stop yourself yes you would mess up your hands but if you pull your arms up and cross them to protect your head/face then the wrists break and the hands are undamaged.
@@clayraynard9936 It would be next to impossible for her to receive the injuries she had. Which makes his testimony questionable at best. She 'flew' off that balcony head first. Unless he had a part in her 'flying off the balcony' he would have had no reason to lie. So yes, it's very likely he did it.
In the old days before Tinder and online dating if a lady wanted to hook up with a nutter she went to the local prison and did it one on one. With modern technology opportunites like this have been lost forever.
1st story- When she squeezed his hand, why didnt they ask her "did your husband do this to you?" If so, squeeze my hand 3x. And if not, squeeze only 2x. And then they would have known if it was him or not. I am not sure if she is able to hear but it would be worth a try.
Sorry I'm late to the party, just subscribed. That's the second comment I've seen saying that and it's just as ridiculous. Everyone knows exactly what they would do in every situation that they've never been in. Smh. They were sitting by their dying daughter's side, ffs, not worried about accusing her husband. It clearly stated that they didn't get suspicious of him until after he told the 2 different versions, after she died. Even if they did do that, I sincerely hope you don't believe that any squeezing of a hand would even remotely be considered evidence.
I cannot believe this story!!!! I think she was smarter than that , BUT : 3:19, I don't believe she was putting lights up like that. HONESTLY its extremely dangerous.
Polygraph assessments are psuedscience. They are not admissible in a court of law for a reason. So it doesn't matter if Jeremy "passed or failed", it doesn't prove innocent or guilt.
Jaysons brother should have never let him walk behind him... I would have kept him in front so I can keep an eye on him... but obviously police cover up
I don’t think she ran down the hallway to get away from him, neighbors would definitely hear that chaos passing their doors. He beat her unconscious/to death on the balcony and dropped her off to make it look like she fell.. as he sat there, he’s thinking, it’s too many loose ends, why did she fall? What’s the story?? So he went outside to move her, thinking he’d be driving..double locked the door..picked her up to take her somewhere/hide her, as if someone else did it to her….but it was getting to be too involved..it’s too many steps, he’s panicked, doesn’t even have half his story straight..and definitely doesn’t want to be seen holding his dead girlfriend/cramming her into his car - better keep the story short and sweet - he left her where that 5 second thought process happened (about 9ft away) and settled on telling everyone he thinks she just fell off the balcony as he played solitaire. And didn’t waiver. Edit: the reason why internal organs/her pelvis and such weren’t injured, is because a limp body almost absorbs the strength of force - think of a drunk driver coming out of a horrible accident with nothing broken..meanwhile, the people they hit are seriously injured/dead. Why, because they’re all loosey-goosey, going with the motions. The sober person is anticipating it, tenses up, tries to prepare for impact. It’s the same thing here. She wasn’t conscious when she hit the ground.
I read a little more about the Jeremy Witherell trial. They left out the fact that Michelle Witherell's blood alcohol level was 0.195 when she was brought into the hospital. At trial the defense called a medical examiner from another state as an expert witness to testify. That witness testified that there was no direct evidence of an assault and that injuries were consistent with the victim falling on the left side of her face and body. He also pointed out that her blood alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit for driving which meant she was more than likely impaired at the time. Also, apparently there were discrepancies in the testimony of a few of the prosecution witnesses and two of the witnesses contradicted each other. In the end, the jury couldn't find beyond a reasonable doubt that she was even murdered let alone that her husband did it. Honestly, if she was that drunk she wasn't acting rationally so who really knows if she fell or not.
Those are good reasons that would explain the not guilty verdict. If the medical examiner can't conclusively say how it happened and/or that it wasn't an accident/suicide, a prosecutor is going to have a hard time proving that case.
There was no voice like Robert Stack back then, he was the best!!

One of the main lessons of Unsolved Mysteries seems to be that very lonely women probably shouldn't correspond with convicts.
No good woman would leave her kids for a convict. Loneliness ain't a excuse to be a moron.
EVEN IF GOD SAYS TO...
She was really weird bcs both her previous husbands were murdered n she strikes up a relationship with a murderer. I think she had a lot of screws loose, but anyone who would have a romantic relationship with a murderer would have.

That’s the most accurate description of Robert Stack’s voice I have ever seen *clap*
😅 love the description
Thats poetic and accurate as f lol
Unsolved mysteries was so needed. It gave a voice to victims, families who lose family to crimes, missing family, that the police or national news didn’t care to help or cover. I think unsolved mysteries solve more crimes than the police.

Michelle’s case is infuriating to me. So much proved it was homicide. Then after they finally agreed it was homicide a jury was like “nah fam” and he was acquitted. Wtf. How.

It happens all the time
No proof he did. He passed TWO lie detector tests. Yes, those can be faked at times....but its rare and to pass TWO lie detector tests? Come on....
Complexion for the protection

Another episode of Unsolved Mysteries a man was given polygraphs and hypnosis and in both he lied. Turns out his story about 'two men picking her up in a truck' wasn't true and he killed her.
That's why polygraph are no long substancial evidence and can't be used as proof in court.
So this gud was never charged for murder
I love unsolved mysteries since I was a little girl. Especially when Robert stack was still alive.
why was a man convicted of murder and serving life without parole transferred to a minimum security prison? It’s almost as if they wanted him to escape. Minimum security prisons are for those with short sentences with no incentive to escape. American courts might as well have given him a ride to whatever destination he wanted.
the show side-stepped that process. But typically there is someone involved in convincing the parole board that he's been a model prisoner and can be given some leniency. I agree that a lifer should not be put in a low security situation.
He jumped a four foot wall!
I truly don’t understand that either. If I were looking at life in prison and they sent me to one of those no way I’m staying. Who would? Medium security I can understand but it would take a very special case to transfer a lifer to minimum security.

I suffered a brain hemorrhage when I was six weeks old. In the hospital, the story goes, I had so many iv's in me that the doctors ran out of places to stick me. While I had health issues throughout my childhood as a result, I survived. The survival rate of a brain hemorrhage is an even 50/50, and I have heard countless stories of full grown adults who have died from it (never come across anyone who survived). I cannot comprehend how or why a six week old baby survived an ordeal like that. The only explanation is the people that my grandmother enlisted to pray for me. The power of prayer saved me.
You had a 50/50 chance... not prayer
I believe many doctors lie with their educated guesses. I also survived my h been kept from me my entire life. Like what happened to my mother found out yesterday the woman that was not my mother. Never have I felt so orphaned in my life. Yes. Answered inform truth. An entire life of lies.

@Codyy Wisconsin True but she didn’t have injuries consisting of someone who fell 3 stories
Cmon man. You know the thing
I'd say she was murdered by blunt force, then he put her body there afterwards to make it look like she fell.
I don’t get it....was a proper autopsy never conducted on Michelle?? It would have determined beyond doubt whether the injuries were consistent with a fall or consistent with a beating.

@@HaxAras Yeah but you fray after a while😂
He killed her. No newly wed sits and plays Solitare, and if they were fighting as much as he claimed, why the fuck would you get marired in the first place? He was having second thoughts, didn't wanna go through the process and expense of a divorce, so he killed her.
Polygraphs are unreliable😕
Of course they are. But if he failed the polygraph twice then you would have a completely different outlook. You'd believe it then, wouldnt you?
@@Brandon-rq3ys I can't make out if you're serious or not. Taking a shit test twice doesn't make the result any better.
@@annnee6818
Because he passed the test twice. Therefore people who believe he's guilty will say they are unreliable. But if he failed the test then you would be saying something like "He failed the test twice so he must be guilty". Not necessarily you in particular but you get the point.
@@Brandon-rq3ys Yeah. It doesn't make a difference whether someone passed or failed it, it's unreliable in any case and just shouldn't be used at all was my point. I'm just shocked how few people know this which is why I keep banging on about it. Polygraphs are pseudoscience and are only used in the states as far as I know (certainly not Europe and western style democracies) which I find quite embarrassing, dunno about you...

I love unsolved mysteries with Robert Stacks. Me and my brother use to watch these episodes together
I seen this story a few times. I’m so angry with my own culture. I always wanted to go to Mexico but after this hell no. My mother even got stuck there once and that the police are so corrupt.
Yep
Remember the story of missing girl Nyleen kay Marshall was on UM and Cayleigh Elises channel. She went missing from a national park and they beleive she was abducted due to creepy letters the mother kept getting with details only known to her. She went to Mexico to look for her and was murdered, found hung and supposedly took her own life after overdosing. 😓😓😓😓
I understand. America is humiliating most of the time.
Agreed
@@silentj624 not as bad as Mexico well sadly it might be with these Democrats running everything
This is a great show.
Truly one of the greats, a fine gentleman and a great actor, Robert Stack died at age 84 of a heart attack on May 14, 2003 in Beverly Hills, California.
Just popping this on to soothe me into my afternoon depression nap
Vicious murderers should be in prison for life with no parole. Never let them out. And make sure they never escape
How can you marry someone who is serving life in prison?
I saw a documentary once where a psychologist explained that these men have nothing but time to dedicate to lonely women. Men on the outside have jobs and other things to focus on and men in prison have time to write them letters, call them, think about them etc. The psychologist explained that the extra time they dedicate makes all the difference.

@@silvervalleystudios2486 Ok but nowhere in my reply did I say it made sense. I literally said that it explained that way by a psychiatrist in a documentary. I didn't say that women should do that or that it was ok.
How can you love someone who has killed someone, some people are so stupid.
I said how can you marry someone who is in prison not how can you love someone in prison.
Damn that's some serious desperation for a man on Donna's part wow she actually helped this man escape from prison and got away with it wow
Stop saying wow
I wouldn't call it desperate. She didn't need him that bad more like pathetic. But people do really dumb stuff when they don't realize they do have worth. She lost everything. She must have been going through a life trauma
Donna was my mother she was gone for 15 years the statute of limitations on helping someone break out of prison is seven so the statute of limitations had already ran out so they couldn’t prosecute her if they were going to she was willing to pay the price but she did come back home and got to spend the rest of her life with her family and her new grandkids
Lonely and desperate is not a good combo when attracting a mate. You will usually attract the bottom of the barrel, people who prey on your lack of self-love.
Aaron S. Lol 😂🤣😂
What a sick woman - Donna getting obsessed w/ that man and abandoning her kids. How awful for them. Loosing both dads, then their mom running off and leaving them for a criminal, just to have a boyfriend. - wow
Exactly! I would have disowned her as a mother. Selfish, greedy woman.
Very sad.Every single mom I know they make it known that their children are their top priority and to me, that makes them more attractive.I can’t imagine the heartbreak them kids went through.
She was brainwashed and manipulated by this guy. Stop shaming the victim!
It's a little suspicious that both her husbands were murdered....
@@merewetherful prove that....I'll wait.
Jeremy Witherell did it. "He passed a polygraph twice." Who the hell cares? By the time this episode aired in the late 90s; people should have known how easy it is to "beat" a polygraph by remaining calm no matter what they ask you. When I was a kid I asked my mom why people are always hooked up to those machines on cop shows. She explained how they work and my response was something like "that's kinda dumb" and I never forgot how that made her crack up and laugh.
There's a reason that they're not admissible in court. If you ask me cops should stop using them.
Unsolved mysteries is just not the same without Robert stack!!!
I have nothing against Dennis Farina but his voice is nothing compared to the smooth and easy on the ears Stack.
Apparently you're allowed to assist in a prison break and harbour a fugitive with impunity.
What kind of a justice system grants a murderer serving a life sentence, minimum security where a 4 foot fence is all that stands between him and freedom.

"Apparently you're allowed to assist in a prison break and harbour a fugitive with impunity." only if you are a woman

This is the best show. Robert Stack, was always making it seem easy.
Where are the chistmas lights? 🤔
Invisible. Or non existent. ..
@Norbero Fontanez It was only a few months and they had no children; I don't think it would have been an expensive or complicated divorce.
That's one of the stories he told the family, not the police.
Both husbands had been murdered? Whaaaat!???
Ikr?!
Yeah that was some bullshit. They were probably gang members because this lady is addicted to criminals
Maybe she was a black widow.....
Both of Donna's previous husbands had been murdered! Maybe, on some subconscious level, she felt like a dangerous husband wouldn't get killed.
It's totally irrational, but subconscious things often are.
What a coincidence that she got married twice and that happened to her husband's
@@Crushbra I know what you may be thinking but in both cases her husbands' killers were apprehended. She had nothing to do with it.
I don't believe that Mexican cop.
Me neither. The fact that 1 of his friend saw him in a police car and they didn't even ask him to identify the officers in that car is so fishy.
No records of him ever get to the station hesaid. Well it is because he was never brought to the station..!!!!
Everything about this case is just not right
Cheryl staples American police are same too.
bigger liar than Canadian cops
Never be cheap u look bad. Especially in front of girls.
You're in another country and drinking heavily and yet have the balls to talk shit at the cops in corrupt Mexico. The results of such an encounter are plainly obvious!!!!!
I visited Charlene Marie Richard on 5-24-2020 . Her grave is beautiful. My husband needed prayer . I had a wonderful experience while I was there . Im going back soon. Bless Charlene Marie and RIP. little Angel😇🙏🙏
I've been wanting to go there since watching this story..ive said her prayer on and off many times over the years esp in tough times..just started again
As a Louisianan, and who lives not far from the cemetery where Charlene Richard’s grave is, I can assure you that you do not hear of the countless people who pilgrimage to our area and are never healed. Due to our French-Canadian ancestry, Roman Catholic superstitions abound throughout southern Louisiana. It is desperate, lonely people giving their time and money to an institution whose leaders think about nothing more than spiritual bondage to tradition and material donations to programs. It is offensive, it is sad, but it is true!
I luv this show!! The stories are really great. In this episode, Donna's story was really unfortunate
Donna was not a victim and she put a felon before her kids and got used
I agree. That story really bothered me. She abandoned her ever forgiving, sweet children for a complete looser and murderer! 😕
I agree. She should have been charged with aiding and abetting a prison escape
Agreed.
Agree. I understand more than anyone, as a single mother, that it's lonely and men like that are very manipulative. However, as a mother, I put my child first and would not ever help a known criminal.
all for a bit of cock.
So, let me get this straight. This lady can aid in the escape of a convicted killer and not have to suffer any consequences, due to being lonely and vulnerable. Get the hell out of here 🤦♂️
Certainly part of a case of benevolent sexism. But part of me thinks this was just the cops hoping to entice her to come back and actually face charges because there's no way what she did wasn't illegal and inexcusable.
I'm laughing at imagining a scenario where a lonely and desperate man helps a convicted killer escape her punishment and the cops saying "oh he was just lonely!".
A man would be doing 5 to 10 years for that.
@Beautifully Mastered skin color no, genitals yes.

Passing a polygraph and letting someone off the hook based on it is as bad as flunking a polygraph and assuming the person did it. There’s a reason results aren’t admissible in court.
Well, they did end up charging him and prosecuting him so apparently it didn't sway them too much.
Jeremy Witherell changed his story so many times but despite this, Jeremy Witherell clung to one of his attorneys, his face awash in tears of joy that he had just been found innocent of the death eight years ago of his first wife, Michelle. Wow!

I don’t get how anyone can marry someone in prison. I can love you all the same but damn it, it’s not happening. If you go to prison we either getting a divorce/not getting married.
Secondly why would you tell a drunk person to walk or trail BEHIND you? Why would you walk away from him?
1. She's really desperate. Two of her husbands were murdered. I think she believes that this guy is a changed man and I think he is. He could've killed her after she helped him out of prison but he didn't. I think the reason he broke out of prison is because of her existance in his life.
2. I think he's had enough of his brother's drunk attitude.
Yeah I don't get it either. You can't go home with a prisoner or spend time with them outside the prison walls. It would be a horribly lonely existence
So, this is Robert Stack 🤣. I was always asked if I was related as a joke haha
Thanks for for another episode of unsolved mysteries The first story Michelle Didn't comment Suicide jeremy wetherell hit her with Something and pushed her off the damn balcony to collect money and he gott Away with it period truly sad😪

Victim or not, Donna Brown help in his escape. There was also nothing said about her being held against her will, in going home to see her children. Choosing a convicted murderer over your own children is such an insult, especially when a murderer(s) killed her first *_TWO_* husbands. Don't need someone whose clever at manipulation when it comes to someone whose mentally not all together there. I'd like to know how she paid for gas & car insurance that whole time she was following him from prison to prison....

After 3 yrs missing : 'Hi, it's me - Mom'. ..'Mom who?'
Hi this is Sherry Nickerson my mother is on one of these episodes she is Donna Brown I wanted to let everybody know that back in 2000 she got sick and came back home Michael went to the prison and turned himself in by going to the front gate and telling them his name he was not captured. my mother was not convicted of a crime because the statute of limitations for that crime is seven years they were gone 15 years .My mother knew she had made mistakes she missed us and we miss her very much she never considered herself a victim and neither did my brother nor I did. The show was aired never really to get my mom to come home but to capture Michael they just made it look this way so they could try to get my mother to reach out but she never did not until the year 2000. She died in 2017 and she was a great mother and she got to know her grandchildren and they loved her very much.
sherry nickerson glad to hear
She should have gone to jail too. She helped Michael and another prisoner escape.
Thank goodness you had a relationship with her after all that
Your mother was a criminal too for helpin 😡🖕
Sorry to hear she passed.
We thanks for the preview saved me 42 min of my life ✌️👍🏼👋🏽👋🏽

Right! As soon as I heard the update music I was waiting to read that she had died or was murdered.
My mother wasn’t captured she came back home because she was dying and wanted to be with her family so Michael went to the prison went to the front gate and told him he was they didn’t capture him like they said on the show it was completely different.

I can't believe Donna Brown didn't get some kind of punishment for aiding and abetting a criminal!! I can't believe her kids are like "ya just come see your grandkids." If Donna is an innocent victim of charm and persuasion than so is everyone who picks up a gun or robs a bank... If someone's mind is that malleable they can marry a man in prison for life, break him out, and hide him for almost 8 years, they are not innocent! Unbelievable.
Exactly!!
TheOneanjel first of all I think that you might need your story a little bit straightened up he have a life sentence but if you know anything a life sentence doesn’t exactly mean a life sentence anymore you might want to check on that the second part my mom never claimed to be a victim of anything third they were gone 15 years she was not convicted of a crime because the statute of limitations for that crime is seven years they were gone 15 so just to straighten things out for you might want to start following up a little bit

Jayson was murdered by the Mexican police.
robert stack : join me..
everyone and their mommas: Ok!!!
There is something wrong with our legal system and there is something wrong with Donna brown. How can a cold blooded murderer be allowed to get married at a maximum security prison? How can a cold blooded murderer be transferred to a minimum security institution so he can escape? How can Donna Brown not be charged with aiding and abetting the escape of this murderer? How can Donna Brown choose a murderer to the point that she literally abandoned her children for him? This whole thing is fucked up!!!
Antonio Acevedo the judicial system transferring brown to a minimum security prison is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen. It was essentially a get out of jail free card. Why the hell would a man serving life stick around when he could easily escape? American courts wanted him free I guess. 🤦🏾♂️
I guess that the same stupidity that you mentioned is the cause of law enforcement not charging Donna Brown for harboring a fugitive or aiding and abetting an escape. It is beyond my understanding. It is beyond my understanding that a convicted murderer is allowed to get married in prison? Who the fuck would want to get married to a prison lifer? What kind of future and security can he provide this lady? This case is one for the books. @@dantegood2195
MissDroplette My mother never lied to me about not ever being with him we always knew she was with him don’t know what you’re talking about but Donna was my mother might wanna get your facts straight
I’m not sure how other states work but in Oklahoma when Michael was first convicted and put on death row they switched it and they weren’t allowed to put people on death row anymore so they transferred his sentence to life well that doesn’t really mean life and so the longer you go on in the better you become as a prisoner you get change to different securities a prisons throughout Oklahoma when they got married they got married in a prison called MacLeod which is not maximum it’s like a medium security prison and I know all this because Donna was my mother once Michael got I little better at being a good prisoner they sent him to a work release prison in Muskogee and that’s how she was able to break them out they release them so they could go get jobs during the day and she was waiting for them and they left
@@sherrynickerson5995 She should have been arrested and put in jail for helping Michael and another prisoner escape
SoDonna Brow had 2 husbands that were murdered wow that is horrible, maybe that made her very vulnerable, but I do not think she was manipulated on that level. She was with him bc she wanted to be...Leaving your kids though?? That is not an option for me
In 2016 she was arrested in Pittsburg county, Okla. for fraud and identity theft. So I don't think she's all that innocent.
Deborah Young
Yea that is very telling, she had a little criminal inside anyway
I am blown away that she helped this murderer escape and hide from authorities and not be charged criminally. I'm with you about her abandoning her children for this low-life. You don't find love in a maximum security prison, but I guess Donna didn't know that, but I hope that I am not judging her.

Balcony Death; I know through experience those injuries could be sustained by the fall. If you are flying face first at the ground one instinct is to pull your arms up to shield your head which will break your wrist(s), Another instinct is to turn your head which can damage your eye and jaw but not impact your nose. However, taking into consideration the distance from the building she impacted does confirm that she dove or was thrown from the balcony as she would have been flying face first off of the balcony.
Take Care All
@Tangerine Sky333 If you put your hands out as if to stop yourself yes you would mess up your hands but if you pull your arms up and cross them to protect your head/face then the wrists break and the hands are undamaged.
Yeah but going by her testimony she didnt die from diving to her death she was hanging for dear life .he killed her i know it in my heart
* his testimony
@@clayraynard9936 It would be next to impossible for her to receive the injuries she had. Which makes his testimony questionable at best. She 'flew' off that balcony head first. Unless he had a part in her 'flying off the balcony' he would have had no reason to lie. So yes, it's very likely he did it.
In the old days before Tinder and online dating if a lady wanted to hook up with a nutter she went to the local prison and did it one on one. With modern technology opportunites like this have been lost forever.
lol!
1st story- When she squeezed his hand, why didnt they ask her "did your husband do this to you?" If so, squeeze my hand 3x. And if not, squeeze only 2x. And then they would have known if it was him or not. I am not sure if she is able to hear but it would be worth a try.
Ok this is probably obvious but does everyone understand why I said 3x and 2x and not 2x and 1x? I would hope so. But if not I will explain.
Ok I am only 6 mins in now and I think either way it's totally obvious he had something to do with her fall
If she even fell at all. Sounds like he staged it. How do you tell 3 different stories and pass a lie detector test? lol
Sorry I'm late to the party, just subscribed. That's the second comment I've seen saying that and it's just as ridiculous. Everyone knows exactly what they would do in every situation that they've never been in. Smh. They were sitting by their dying daughter's side, ffs, not worried about accusing her husband. It clearly stated that they didn't get suspicious of him until after he told the 2 different versions, after she died. Even if they did do that, I sincerely hope you don't believe that any squeezing of a hand would even remotely be considered evidence.
I cannot believe this story!!!! I think she was smarter than that , BUT : 3:19, I don't believe she was putting lights up like that. HONESTLY its extremely dangerous.
Polygraph assessments are psuedscience. They are not admissible in a court of law for a reason. So it doesn't matter if Jeremy "passed or failed", it doesn't prove innocent or guilt.
Jaysons brother should have never let him walk behind him... I would have kept him in front so I can keep an eye on him... but obviously police cover up
@12:33 that synth bass makes you feel like something is going to happen
I like the love ppl still have in every episodes's comments for the great Robert Stack ♥️
I hang Christmas lights from a tight rope three stories up too. Not scary at all. Very plausible. Let me get back to my game of Solitaire now
I like the new unsolved mysteries.. can't wait until October 5th for the new season.. old ones like these are good 2 but the new one is good also
Lliar those cops they know what happened to the American guy
I don’t think she ran down the hallway to get away from him, neighbors would definitely hear that chaos passing their doors.
He beat her unconscious/to death on the balcony and dropped her off to make it look like she fell.. as he sat there, he’s thinking, it’s too many loose ends, why did she fall?
What’s the story??
So he went outside to move her, thinking he’d be driving..double locked the door..picked her up to take her somewhere/hide her, as if someone else did it to her….but it was getting to be too involved..it’s too many steps, he’s panicked, doesn’t even have half his story straight..and definitely doesn’t want to be seen holding his dead girlfriend/cramming her into his car - better keep the story short and sweet - he left her where that 5 second thought process happened (about 9ft away) and settled on telling everyone he thinks she just fell off the balcony as he played solitaire. And didn’t waiver.
Edit: the reason why internal organs/her pelvis and such weren’t injured, is because a limp body almost absorbs the strength of force - think of a drunk driver coming out of a horrible accident with nothing broken..meanwhile, the people they hit are seriously injured/dead.
Why, because they’re all loosey-goosey, going with the motions.
The sober person is anticipating it, tenses up, tries to prepare for impact.
It’s the same thing here. She wasn’t conscious when she hit the ground.
Jason was killed by those cops
I read a little more about the Jeremy Witherell trial.
They left out the fact that Michelle Witherell's blood alcohol level was 0.195 when she was brought into the hospital.
At trial the defense called a medical examiner from another state as an expert witness to testify. That witness testified that there was no direct evidence of an assault and that injuries were consistent with the victim falling on the left side of her face and body. He also pointed out that her blood alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit for driving which meant she was more than likely impaired at the time.
Also, apparently there were discrepancies in the testimony of a few of the prosecution witnesses and two of the witnesses contradicted each other.
In the end, the jury couldn't find beyond a reasonable doubt that she was even murdered let alone that her husband did it.
Honestly, if she was that drunk she wasn't acting rationally so who really knows if she fell or not.
Those are good reasons that would explain the not guilty verdict. If the medical examiner can't conclusively say how it happened and/or that it wasn't an accident/suicide, a prosecutor is going to have a hard time proving that case.
I can't believe no one here isn't talking about the murder of Jayson by the police
This us madness how can u merry someone who is in jail
