Hey folks! With the holiday season, there's potentially just ONE video next week on Tuesday, so I'll see you then! I have lots of VERY interesting cases coming your way! Keeping up to date with cases - ➤ Instagram: instagram.com/coffeehousecrime ➤ Twitter: twitter.com/coffeehcrime
Need you to cover the Kamarie Holland case, you will bring so much attention to it… her father is currently trying to pass a law in her name… Kamarie’s Law, which prevents her killer from pleading Insanity and getting away with it.
You know the brother loved his sister when he just up and got the next plane to go personally search for her. If my baby sister went missing I'd do the same.
Imagine how betrayed the brother felt when he discovered it was her own boyfriend who killed her, while everyone saw them as a very close strong couple.
@@sleepymonsteraddict you don't kno that, he definitely doesn't either. Y'all loons need to stop acting like you kno everything bc media pushes narrative in a certain way. 0 evidence. That's how innocent people get screwed by the system. Needs to stop. Bet you were one of the believe all women ppl too. How'd that go
I wasn't expecting them arresting him this recent in comparison to when the crime happened. It's amazing and sad how it's been 17 years for the family with dealing with not having a proper arrest and justice for their daughter. I hope that the case gets correctly solved and that justice is finally served for Simone.
We have a bad habit of dropping the ball with backpacker disappearances, even after Milat. To be fair, we do have a number of people overstay their visas and show up years later and this is probably why, but it is no reason to simply not take action when friends and family say they haven't heard anything.
I hope so too, since he's living here with the new wife whose parents are RICH. I'd be scared he was going to kill my daughter, or myself for money if I was her parent. Clearly he targeted her because of her family's wealth.
Holy smokes the years have not been kind with him tho 😂 he looks like death warmed over. I guess killing your girlfriend and getting away with it for so long does take a toll on a murderer.
Still not sure what exact evidence they had to charge him..circumstantial evidence should NEVER put you in prison..if hes guilty, toss the book at him..but I NEED real proof bfor I help lock someone up..condolences to her family..
@@cherbear1996a lot of cases only have circumstantial evidence. The OJ case a famous one. He did it and got away with it. He even wrote a book on it. Then you have the Gabby petito case. It was also all circumstantial that the boyfriend did it.
Am I the only one wondering just why in tf it took *6 whole, entire days* to find her lying a mere *100 meters away* from her last known destination?!? Esp considering she had no friggin shoes on?!!
Even found in a storm drain/ditch with stinky,stagnant water you would think authorities knowing the area would think: “Let’s check that storm drain/ditch since it always has a natural stinky stench it would be a good place to hide a body” It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to find a body so close either. So I’m wondering if her body was moved so close after the search. Thinking no one checks areas twice. Unless that area wasn’t checked a first time.
I was a young adult during this time and everything from the clothes to the travel reminds me of my life then... hard to imagine my life ending at that point. So sad. I hope Simone’s family sees some justice.
Thank you for covering this. Lismore is my home town. I was only 10 when this happened but I remember it so vividly, it really shook the whole community. I’m glad he has finally been arrested. Side note: as you mentioned the flooding around here, earlier this year Lismore suffered a particularly devastating flood that far exceeded 1974. Hundreds of people still do not have homes.
@@magicalmystery1964 I can tell you did well on your reading comprehension tests in school, kiddo. You're very good at understanding blatant and obvious sarcasm.
@@jeffbrownstain my reading and comprehension is excellent. Reading intent in a comment or text is another matter. Perhaps you should consider that before running your mouth.
She probably knew of his past and believed his story that she disappeared and was murdered. He hasn't been convicted yet so we still don't know if he did it.
Out of all the cases I've seen you talk about, this is the first one where the main suspect has remained dead silent and being very consistent with his story 5 or 6 times in a row when he was originally interrogated years ago, it is so bizarre! Most cases the main suspect breaks down after a while or has left a trail behind leading to their culpability, but here, there's nothing but a single strand of hair and ... that's it! I for sure will be on the lookout for an update, thank you for the awesome content
This highly reminds me of the cases of Sigrid Paulus, Lolita Brieger and Kim Mirgel The only difference is that the spouses admitted a dispute prior to their wives' /girlfriends' disappearances
It's truly heartbreaking, that someone can so carelessly take a life. And then just move on with their lives. As if nothing ever happened. I just cannot make myself grasp the thought that such heinous behavior can just go untouched..like hey no big deal..just proceed with your life. What is wrong with these monsters! God bless Simone and her family.
I think there is something up with Tobias and Katrin. His denial to return in 2007 and Katrin running away all seem to point that they know something. I think it was an argument that got out of hand combined with drugs, alcohol, and aggression made Simone get killed accidentally. Hiding the body is something someone who doesn't want to face jail would do because they're not thinking straight. Just my two cents. Thanks for video Adrian! Keep up the great work!
All three of them are suspect in my opinion. They probably helped hide the body at least. That said, their actions afterwards don't prove anything to me. If police and media all believed I had killed someone because I didn't want them to know that we had argued, gotten drunk and smoked weed (weed is illegal in Germany fyi) I'd probably shut up as well. And if the brother of my alleged victim approached me in the street I'd run away too.
Or, you know, the could be tired of being harassed for years by the same people with the same questions hoping for different answers. That "wouldn't you cooperate" line is a trick- they all did cooperate for quite awhile. But if you know yourself to be innocent of the crime and know the focus is only on you and they're just going to keep harassing you for YEARS and not even attempt to find other answers, it's time to stop "cooperating". You can only give them what you know but if thats not what they want to hear they WILL keep after you.
Adrian, I love your content. Your videos have such a professional polish and the dive you take into each case is quite thorough. You provide painstaking detail, setting the stage, stressing the loss by the victim and the loved ones, and highlighting the crime without glorifying the criminal. Such a fantastic delivery of true crime! Keep up the great work.
Hi Adrian. I hope you get this & it doesn't get hacked or erased. Why didn't these creeps get convicted? I hope they rot in hell! It's sad that most people act as if this case can't be proved or solved but eventually, it will & they can enjoy jail, just where everyone else has to go when they commit crimes. Narcissistic people like them feel entitled or privileged, when in reality, they're just ordinary people like everyone else in life. Love your channel & see you on the next video, peace, love, Janine Smiley🙂😀😋😘😍☕🍩☕🥧⌚🛋🚗🚘🆒️💯❕❗🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🎄🎈🎉🎊🎍🎋HAPPY HOLIDAYS! 🦓🦄🏡
@@CoffeehouseCrime This woman was a victim of a different a phenomenon your aware of but have no true understanding. I would have body exhumed and see if it truly was smother with no fight or se-×ual assault.
Adrian, I’m a huge fan of your videos and I have a case that I feel isn’t getting enough attention and is currently on going. I’m from Albany, New York and close by is the town of Schenectady. Currently there is a missing 14 year old girl named Samantha Humphrey who just vanished. She’s been missing since November 25th when she went to meet her ex boyfriend (also 14) at midnight. They found her jacket along the river banks of the Mohawk River but no trace has been found since. I also read that her best friend went missing a few days before her and I don’t think she’s been found either. If you could cover it, I hope it would bring attention to it and hopefully help find them.
I hope her family will be given the justice and closure that they so desperately need and deserve. They have gone through so much for so long, I pray that they will at least be given that small amount of peace 🙏 Thank you for bringing light to another case that many people have been unaware of. Hopefully, there will be an update soon. Rest in peace angel 🙏 🕊 xx
How very sad I live in Australia and can't remember hearing about this case 😥...I do hope Simona's killer/killer's are bought to justice it's been a long time for her family to be "wondering who and why"...I'm guessing they like me have a feeling of who/why...someone knows exactly what happened that night...RIP Simona 😥💜...Adrian thankyou again I'm very glad I found your channel 🙂
My day’s always a lot better with a steaming hot episode of Coffeehouse Crime. I would have never survived rehab (not drug rehab, rehab to recover from dual foot surgeries 😂) without being able to mainline episodes. Thank you, Adrian, for treating these cases with deep, abiding empathy. 💜💜💜
Thank you for covering this. Will you ever return to Australia? I think a fair few of your fans are based here since you have covered a fair few of our cases over the years. I am glad to hear you enjoyed your time with us and had a safe, happy journey. This is what we want for our visitors.
Over the years I've met a lot of travelers here in Australia who were on their 'big adventure'. In many of these meetings, it's been a couple, and in many of those relationships, tension had been building between the two. I think it's because they are suddenly in a place where having to stay in that relationship no longer seems like their dream come true. I remember this case and often wondered if it was a relationship breakdown that led to the murder of this young woman.
Yes - it must be awful to be on an extended trip away from family and friends, travelling with someone you are not getting along with. Even worse if you are posting everything to Instagram, trying to make it look like you're having a great time. Think of dear little Gabby Petito.
Adrian you are so respectful to the victim and all your information is educational, we learn so much. Thank you for all your hard work. You are amazing 👏
Honestly I hate the name. 😂 'Toe-bias' is an american/westernised version of the name. But this Tobias is German and in Germany is pronounced 'Toe-bee-us'. Genuinely couldn't nail it down consistently because I'm used to hearing so many versions of it across the world. Simone's name has a pronunced E with an upward inflcection at the end of it too!
Whatever the last known people to see Simone did or didn't do, they are highly suspicious. Their lack of transparency seems cruel to Simone's loved ones. I am aware that being a bad person isn't a crime in itself even though there may be moments when I wish it was.
It seems like this was the awful result of excessive drinking by a young man who couldn't control his temper. So sorry for this young woman's family. Rest in peace Simone.
@xfKYZacTri wow, that touched a nerve. Sure sounds like you're making excuses for something awful you've done while drunk. As for myself, I suspect my knowledge of terminology is a fair bit better than yours, seeing as I did two law degrees and passed the bar. They don't accept rage and emotional defensiveness about one's addictions as sufficient answers there.
He probably did it, but we have no way of knowing. Obviously we're not going to be privy to all the evidence/facts of the case, as the trial still needs to take place. If he was charged only because a single strand of his hair was found, that's an extremely flimsy case. People with long hair get it everywhere, it would be perfectly reasonable to think one of the strands got onto his girlfriends clothing during the course of their night before she went for a walk. I think he most likely killed her, but proving it is near impossible at this point
My Christmas wish is a 3 hours special with 3 absolutely crazy stories from coffeehouse crimes. Mr nightmare and Mr ballen having an hour each in their respective styles. That would absolutely shut down RUclips
How sad for Simone & her family. Liquor combined with anger is never a good thing. This time it was a deadly mix. My sympathies to Simone’s family and friends. Adrian! I love your Coffeehouse Christmas decor….& I love listening to you narrate these awesome stories. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year! ❤️✝️
Hi Adrian, thank you so much for covering this case! I sent through this suggestion so long ago, I honestly thought you didn’t think it was interesting enough to cover. It’s such a sad case & hopefully it’s put to rest soon as it’s been a long time & her family need closure. I’m glad you used the news footage that you did, as it clearly shows the many inconsistencies in the media reporting, both back when it happened, & still to this day. Also, in regards to Lismore’s floods - the town was hit by a record breaking 14m flood in Feb 2022, then another almost as big exactly 1 month later. The town still looks like a war zone, with many traumatised people still living in tents & caravans in their yards - so many houses are completely unliveable. The Gollan pub mentioned in your video was decimated & is unlikely to reopen, along with so many other businesses & buildings in the CBD
Watched you from when you had 200K subs...am still shocked at how quickly you ve grown your channel, I used to watch you and wondered whether ppl would find your channel, am so happy, keep going brother xx
I had never heard of this case. I’m from the U.S. and this reminds me of the case that happened here last year of Gabby Petito. It strangely has a LOT of similarities.
It's not weird for people in Australia to walk around without shoes on. So many of my mates do it. My girlfriend walks into the city barefoot, so on a campsite it's nothing. Just one of those things Down under!
When I visited Australia I would be far more likely to take my shoes off in the city than in a grassy area, because of the insects. Though of course they vary between cities and states.
True, however I know that I tend to always at least wear thongs when walking around in the bush or foresty areas, since sharp rocks, small twigs and, depending on the area, those pain-in-the-ass needle leaves are everywhere. In my opinion, stepping on those bs needle leaves is worse than stepping on legos. Sincerely, a fellow Aussie
Starting this channel was such a blessing to us as viewers honestly. I truly hope with the amount of time you're dedicating to it, you're making a decent amount of return that can keep it going 🌸🌸🌸
I’m a loyal subscriber,and I always love your content ! Wishing you and yours the happiest of holidays and a fabulous new year🎉!(that includes wonderful wishes for all of your supporters!)
It is outrageous the authorities did not bother to search for three days. If they had searched sooner, there would surely have been more opportunity to gather evidence. And even if someone is just lost, finding them sooner will help their chances of survival. Australia is looking a lot less inviting as a travel destination. Tobias clearly did lie to investigators and should have been held to account for that much earlier. But as for who did away with Simone, the evidence is very thin (due to the authorities neglecting her disappearance for days). My feeling is that, sadly, this case will never be resolved unless someone decides to talk. If they go to trial with nothing for evidence except sketchy behavior and a hair (which any attorney could easily explain), I can't imagine a jury convicting.
The aussie authorities are almost completely useless when it comes to missing persons. When my parents listed my older brother as missing, the police told them they had to wait at least 48hrs before they would start to search for him. A few days later, his body was found in his car, parked next to a rest stop. In the 48hrs the cops had told my parents to wait, he'd committed suicide. To this day, I believe there's a strong chance that he would still be alive if the cops had started searching for him straight away.
Yes I think the same. I stopped watching early on when one ep Adrian said "now sit back and enjoy" or something and I thought it was inappropriate to talk about "enjoying" a murder report. But I was drawn back by his consistency and commitment and I have felt great respect for the victims in all eps I've watched lately. Also Adrian has either got a good editor, or has learnt to cut excess words to create a nice, tight script that doesn't repeat itself or use unnecessary words. I think he is getting better and better with every video. Bravo.
Adrian, have you ever considered writing a book? of any sort, non-fic, fiction, personal essays? your research skills are so good, you have a natural way with pacing a narrative & you have a lovely way with words, you'd probably make a brilliant writer- although I guess your delivery is a big part of why your vids are so enjoyable & we wouldn't get that in a book!
Update in case anyone is watching this later, the charges were dropped due to lack of evidence, so much so infact that the prosecution had to pay him $190,000 asd to cover his legal fees.
Knowing the dump that Lismore is - Im impressed, you almost convinced me it was nice! 😂 I lived for a while in that caravan park - there is no way you couldnt walk around the perimeter and not have found her. Its suspect that no-one did for days so Im not surprised they had trouble solving the case. Rip Simona. What a long drawn out ordeal for her family.
Just got my hot peppermint mocha cappuccino from Starbucks, snuggled up on my couch, and ready to listen to the soothing sound of my main man Adrian’s awesome video! Thanks hun! Happy holidays
You should send your evidence to the authorities right away. You are just as bad for withholding what you know. Unless you don't actually know anything.....
This ignorance of the court of public opinion is what gets people convicted wrongly at times far before the trial it allows detectives to be lazy you wasnt there you truly dont know anything you haven't poured over the evidence you have watched a video thst gives details and eludes to aome odd behavior from her partner with no concrete evidence
Another extremely well presented case. I absolutely love the way you narrate and provide all the facts. The problem with the case itself is, if all they have is a strand of hair, it doesn’t prove anything. They were a couple and a hair can go on her easily. I want to think the boyfriend did it but there is absolutely no proof whatsoever. Also sometimes innocent people don’t want to say they argued as they know they are already police’s number one suspect. But then his behaviour after her disappearance was so odd. I really don’t know what to think. Simone and her family deserve justice and closure and I hope they do get it.
I really enjoy your intros. Describing the towns/countries where events in the case take place. You almost lull me into thinking I'm about to watch a travel show, and then BOOM, get straight into the nitty gritty. By the way, my 7yo Son is the only other person I know who is so polite and constantly saying 'by the way" 😊
Oh man, never thought I'd see this one on here. Like another commentator, I was a young child (six or seven I believe) in Lismore when this happened and it shocked the whole town. Everyone was horrified and I remember us talking about it on the school playgrounds at Lismore Heights Primary School. I've since moved away to Melbourne, but I always kept an eye on this case in the hopes that he would be arrested.
Good Evening Adrian, I hope you are well. Thank you for all your classy, well presented and eloquent videos. I hope you and yours have a very HAPPY Christmas. 😊 kind regards, Lizzie X
Hi, I don't know if you do cases from this far back but I think the 1989 murder of Edward Baldock by Tracey Wigginton and her three accomplices would be an interesting story for you to cover. Its regarded as one of the most bizarre cases in Australian criminal history and has the moniker of the 'Lesbian Vampire Killer'. Just wanted to bring it up since I live in the city where it happened and hearing one of my lecturers bring it up as a case study. Anyway, Merry Christmas.
Nah that case has been done to death, I'd like to see the case of Stuart Rattle covered. I have a feeling his prominent family got the coverage squashed
The case of James Hanratty being hanged (the last man in England) for the brutal attack of Valerie Storey and her partner at the time, is a very interesting and twisted case with many plot twists that would make for an amazing video in your style... Keep up the good work!
This is a difficult case because he was probably aware that if he said yes, they did have an argument that people would have accused him of murdering his girlfriend (so it could be a reason why he lied). Also, they were living in close proximity so it is possible that she had a hair on her from him anyway. The thing I find most suspicious is that he left so soon after she went missing. If someone I loved went missing I would be distraught and first do everything I could to find them, I would only go home when I really had to.
The combination of professionalism and personal sentiments from you is received with gratitude, the experiences of the victims in your stories are truly sad however awareness is essential, so I’m thankful to the way you deliver them with such care. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you and your loved ones 🎉 And a heartfelt hello from Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺 👋
I feel the need to share my own experience because it may help you understand how difficult it is to judge such things. I experienced something traumatic and, when asked to come in to "talk about it," was shocked to find that they did not believe I was a victim, but was actually the suspect, and I was taken to a small room and interrogated. I was shocked, angry, desperate, and any other emotion you can imagine. Believe me, my response was aggressive. They told me that I would be sent away for a very long time, I would never work in my field again (I taught at a university and would never be able to work in that field, and many others, as a felon- imagine trying to find any job after prison), my minor child would be taken away from me and I would not see them for a very long time, my name would be all over the front page for a long time (I lived in a small city where such things are front-page news), especially during the trial, and on and on. Everything I'd ever worked for - my family, my house, my reputation, my career, my sanity - would be gone. My life would be ruined. For almost a year, I fought back and got a lawyer, but felt like I was shouting into the void. The police would not believe me. They used faulty science that they felt pointed to me, and would not listen to reason, nor would they consider that I'd never been in trouble in any way, so there was no pattern, so to speak. I went into a tailspin, feeling broken, unheard and alone, crying myself to sleep every night, and was suicidal. I was going to kill myself. In the end, their contact with me became less frequent until I stopped hearing from them. But, I was told that the statute of limitations was 17 years, so, even though I try not to think about it, I still haven't been able to breathe a sigh of relief. There are still 8 years left. Before all of this happened to me, I had many beliefs that I no longer carry: the police can spot lying (they can't), they use good up-to-date science and, when a suspect commits suicide, it's because they were guilty and couldn't face the punishment. I wish I'd never gone through what I went through, as it has completely changed me and has also tainted my view of police. Sorry for this long comment. I do hope it contains some value for you and/or others. As for whether or not Tobias is guilty, I honestly don't know, but answering aggressively could indicate guilt or innocence. I reacted the same way when I was asked if it did it (I wasn't accused of murder, but it was a very serious accusation that could potentially carry a term of 10-20 years or more). Thank you for reading this far, if you did!
@@Andrea-xs4ny- I am so sorry to hear what you went through. I also fully understand what you are saying. Believe me, even if I am witness to a car accident, I don't volunteer any assistance to the police because I know how it can come back and haunt one. They appear to have targets to meet and any candidate can be panel-beaten to fill their quotas. BUT, I must also add... Once when I needed the police, they went out their way to assist me and for that I am grateful. If only they were all like that. I know the worry you are living with and hope all is quiet between now and your statute of limitations. Best wishes and have a happy festival season.
@@friendlypiranha774 I've never met a friendly piranha before. Thank you for your very warm and kind response. I truly appreciate it. May you have a blessed Christmas holiday yourself! 🎄
This was so sad. I have seen what alcohol does to people. They're okay with that fourth or fifth beer, but have that sixth, and a whole new person emerges. I pray the family finally gets closure and justice will be served. May Simone rest peacefully and eternally. 🕊️🙏❤️
Good thing that the new person that emerges from me after 6th beer is just cuddly blabbering moron that only wants to go to sleep :V But yeah I do know some people for whom that transformation is not that calm, let's just say.
@@Magepure6749 , I'm the same loveable and funny girl I am when I drink. I haven't drank, by choice, in over 12 years. Lots of internal medical issues.
Surely there is more evidence than what has been released! I can’t see a murder conviction after 20 years with such little and circumstantial evidence. RIP and thoughts are with her friends and family ❤️
It happens all the time. Often the arrest is done to acquire DNA evidence even if they don't have any other evidence to present. They were hoping the DNA matched, but it doesn't seem like it did because they are now turning their attention elsewhere.
What evidence do investigators really have? Her bf’s hair on her body is circumstantial. He was in close proximity with her as they were intimate. I am not 100% convinced he killed her.
It seems it was obviously the boyfriend but without concrete evidence he goes free. I really don’t know how people can live with such a guilt hanging over one’s head.
If it is a full blown narcissist, they can kill. No consciousness and no remorse. Look at this imperialistic system...buy and SELL..advertisements EVERYWHERE, Slavery income(poor) media FEEDING people with FEAR...so they(governments)can use and abuse the SLAVES(we common people)😊 They care for their slaves just to obey... so be quite and work your way to FREEDOM 😅😂😂 You see how cunning they are? 😉 The only way out is KNOWING and UNION
Hey folks! With the holiday season, there's potentially just ONE video next week on Tuesday, so I'll see you then! I have lots of VERY interesting cases coming your way!

They obviously didn't take the search for her that seriously. The group were arguing and she "stormed off".
That was the first thing that stood out to me. How in the world did it take that long and she was literally right there.
@@jeanettec30 cops literally wait until a body shows up.. or it’s been a couple weeks and the mother is freaking out … otherwise no search
Even found in a storm drain/ditch with stinky,stagnant water you would think authorities knowing the area would think: “Let’s check that storm drain/ditch since it always has a natural stinky stench it would be a good place to hide a body”
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to find a body so close either. So I’m wondering if her body was moved so close after the search. Thinking no one checks areas twice. Unless that area wasn’t checked a first time.

Thank you for covering this. Lismore is my home town. I was only 10 when this happened but I remember it so vividly, it really shook the whole community. I’m glad he has finally been arrested.
Side note: as you mentioned the flooding around here, earlier this year Lismore suffered a particularly devastating flood that far exceeded 1974. Hundreds of people still do not have homes.

@@jeffbrownstain my reading and comprehension is excellent. Reading intent in a comment or text is another matter. Perhaps you should consider that before running your mouth.
It’s crazy how frequent this type of scenario occurs… “friends” going away & someone winding up -.
I cant imagine how it would feel to find out your husband, and father of your children, is a different person and being charged with murder.
My thought too.
He may have told her though. Who knows? Obviously, he would have said he was innocent, but he might have told her about his ex.
But is hasn't been proven that he is gulty. A normal spouse would stand with you and support you. At least ultil proven guilty
That poor innocent woman. Imagine finding out your husband is capable of murdering someone he loved.
She probably knew of his past and believed his story that she disappeared and was murdered. He hasn't been convicted yet so we still don't know if he did it.
Out of all the cases I've seen you talk about, this is the first one where the main suspect has remained dead silent and being very consistent with his story 5 or 6 times in a row when he was originally interrogated years ago, it is so bizarre! Most cases the main suspect breaks down after a while or has left a trail behind leading to their culpability, but here, there's nothing but a single strand of hair and ... that's it! I for sure will be on the lookout for an update, thank you for the awesome content
He was drunk when he did it and he hated her, so he feels no remorse. It isn't hard to practice a story that she went walking and he went to bed.
@@madsdee7803 could very well be... sadly
After much thought, it points to the boyfriend. The fighting, and drugs and alcohol, his reaction prove culpability.
We know at least part of what he was saying were lies though, because the fighting he claimed didn't happen is proven.
This highly reminds me of the cases of Sigrid Paulus, Lolita Brieger and Kim Mirgel
The only difference is that the spouses admitted a dispute prior to their wives' /girlfriends' disappearances
It's truly heartbreaking, that someone can so carelessly take a life. And then just move on with their lives. As if nothing ever happened. I just cannot make myself grasp the thought that such heinous behavior can just go untouched..like hey no big deal..just proceed with your life. What is wrong with these monsters! God bless Simone and her family.
I bet her boyfriend had something to do with the murder
@@evantambolang3052 was my thought aswell
Innocent until proven guilty. I doubt he did it.
He definitely did it.
I think there is something up with Tobias and Katrin. His denial to return in 2007 and Katrin running away all seem to point that they know something. I think it was an argument that got out of hand combined with drugs, alcohol, and aggression made Simone get killed accidentally. Hiding the body is something someone who doesn't want to face jail would do because they're not thinking straight. Just my two cents.
Thanks for video Adrian! Keep up the great work!
All three of them are suspect in my opinion. They probably helped hide the body at least. That said, their actions afterwards don't prove anything to me. If police and media all believed I had killed someone because I didn't want them to know that we had argued, gotten drunk and smoked weed (weed is illegal in Germany fyi) I'd probably shut up as well. And if the brother of my alleged victim approached me in the street I'd run away too.
@@contra1124 agreed. There's a reasonable chance he did do it, but nothing presented proves anything.
@@that.ll_do_pig i heard this story before
Or, you know, the could be tired of being harassed for years by the same people with the same questions hoping for different answers. That "wouldn't you cooperate" line is a trick- they all did cooperate for quite awhile. But if you know yourself to be innocent of the crime and know the focus is only on you and they're just going to keep harassing you for YEARS and not even attempt to find other answers, it's time to stop "cooperating". You can only give them what you know but if thats not what they want to hear they WILL keep after you.
why didn't he help look for her tho...?
I’ve got to give thankfulness, gratitude and praise for detectives who just don’t ever give up. Respect! 🏆
Adrian, I love your content. Your videos have such a professional polish and the dive you take into each case is quite thorough. You provide painstaking detail, setting the stage, stressing the loss by the victim and the loved ones, and highlighting the crime without glorifying the criminal. Such a fantastic delivery of true crime! Keep up the great work.
Thank you!
Hi Adrian. I hope you get this & it doesn't get hacked or erased. Why didn't these creeps get convicted? I hope they rot in hell! It's sad that most people act as if this case can't be proved or solved but eventually, it will & they can enjoy jail, just where everyone else has to go when they commit crimes. Narcissistic people like them feel entitled or privileged, when in reality, they're just ordinary people like everyone else in life. Love your channel & see you on the next video, peace, love, Janine Smiley🙂😀😋😘😍☕🍩☕🥧⌚🛋🚗🚘🆒️💯❕❗🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🎄🎈🎉🎊🎍🎋HAPPY HOLIDAYS! 🦓🦄🏡

This woman was a victim of a different a phenomenon your aware of but have no true understanding. I would have body exhumed and see if it truly was smother with no fight or se-×ual assault.
Adrian, I’m a huge fan of your videos and I have a case that I feel isn’t getting enough attention and is currently on going. I’m from Albany, New York and close by is the town of Schenectady. Currently there is a missing 14 year old girl named Samantha Humphrey who just vanished. She’s been missing since November 25th when she went to meet her ex boyfriend (also 14) at midnight. They found her jacket along the river banks of the Mohawk River but no trace has been found since. I also read that her best friend went missing a few days before her and I don’t think she’s been found either. If you could cover it, I hope it would bring attention to it and hopefully help find them.
I hope this case gets the attention it deserves. This young girl and her family need justice
Thank you for bringing this case up. Sounds horrible. I hope Adrian covers this.
Shut up. Nobody cares but you.
So she is in the water. No other option
@@karlaisonfire they have been searching the river for almost three weeks and haven’t found anything
Thank you for covering this story. I hope her family gets an answer and justice is served for Simona. 🙏🏻❤️
I hope her family will be given the justice and closure that they so desperately need and deserve. They have gone through so much for so long, I pray that they will at least be given that small amount of peace 🙏 Thank you for bringing light to another case that many people have been unaware of. Hopefully, there will be an update soon. Rest in peace angel 🙏 🕊 xx
What a beautiful poem on the stone left in her memory. Such a sad story, poor girl :(

thank you so much for covering this case. Love from Würzburg.
Didn't think I would get news from my area here on your channel (Würzburg)... Holy moly ...
R.I.P Simone, I can only hope the monsters that took your life are brought to justice.
How very sad I live in Australia and can't remember hearing about this case 😥...I do hope Simona's killer/killer's are bought to justice it's been a long time for her family to be "wondering who and why"...I'm guessing they like me have a feeling of who/why...someone knows exactly what happened that night...RIP Simona 😥💜...Adrian thankyou again I'm very glad I found your channel 🙂
My day’s always a lot better with a steaming hot episode of Coffeehouse Crime. I would have never survived rehab (not drug rehab, rehab to recover from dual foot surgeries 😂) without being able to mainline episodes. Thank you, Adrian, for treating these cases with deep, abiding empathy. 💜💜💜
Thank you for covering this.
Will you ever return to Australia? I think a fair few of your fans are based here since you have covered a fair few of our cases over the years. I am glad to hear you enjoyed your time with us and had a safe, happy journey. This is what we want for our visitors.
Yeah it was tons of fun with brush fires and CONvid 😂
Over the years I've met a lot of travelers here in Australia who were on their 'big adventure'. In many of these meetings, it's been a couple, and in many of those relationships, tension had been building between the two. I think it's because they are suddenly in a place where having to stay in that relationship no longer seems like their dream come true.
I remember this case and often wondered if it was a relationship breakdown that led to the murder of this young woman.
Yes - it must be awful to be on an extended trip away from family and friends, travelling with someone you are not getting along with. Even worse if you are posting everything to Instagram, trying to make it look like you're having a great time. Think of dear little Gabby Petito.
@@VanillaMacaron551 Yep. That was tragic.
I hate it when there is no ending to the story. It feels even sadder....
Adrian you are so respectful to the victim and all your information is educational, we learn so much. Thank you for all your hard work. You are amazing 👏
Agreed. This is the reason I prefer his true crime channel over others. He doesn’t make the case a spectacle and shows great respect to the victims
I just noticed the cat in background, behind Adrian in intro wearing a Christmas Santa hat. So cute x
I love how he says "Tobias" differently like 5 times lmfao
Honestly I hate the name. 😂 'Toe-bias' is an american/westernised version of the name. But this Tobias is German and in Germany is pronounced 'Toe-bee-us'. Genuinely couldn't nail it down consistently because I'm used to hearing so many versions of it across the world. Simone's name has a pronunced E with an upward inflcection at the end of it too!
@@CoffeehouseCrime but you did it perfectly at ~2:50 😊 (I speak german as L1/mother tongue)
And "Simone" si-moan no simona now lol
@@CoffeehouseCrime you can spell it like two beers
@@cynjones9603 in German it’s SimonA. Look it up.
Whatever the last known people to see Simone did or didn't do, they are highly suspicious. Their lack of transparency seems cruel to Simone's loved ones. I am aware that being a bad person isn't a crime in itself even though there may be moments when I wish it was.
Ohhhhhh just got my coffee and got the notification. Morning is better now. Great job as always. Thank you sir
Man I hope their some resolution to this case soon. Such a beautiful soul!
It’s always sad when hearing that justice hasn’t been served. I hope this guy rots in jail. R.I.P to that young woman
It seems like this was the awful result of excessive drinking by a young man who couldn't control his temper. So sorry for this young woman's family. Rest in peace Simone.
Lots of people drink. Many get drunk. Most of them don't murder their girlfriends. Bad excuse.
@xfKYZacTri wow, that touched a nerve. Sure sounds like you're making excuses for something awful you've done while drunk. As for myself, I suspect my knowledge of terminology is a fair bit better than yours, seeing as I did two law degrees and passed the bar. They don't accept rage and emotional defensiveness about one's addictions as sufficient answers there.
He probably did it, but we have no way of knowing. Obviously we're not going to be privy to all the evidence/facts of the case, as the trial still needs to take place. If he was charged only because a single strand of his hair was found, that's an extremely flimsy case. People with long hair get it everywhere, it would be perfectly reasonable to think one of the strands got onto his girlfriends clothing during the course of their night before she went for a walk.
I think he most likely killed her, but proving it is near impossible at this point
My Christmas wish is a 3 hours special with 3 absolutely crazy stories from coffeehouse crimes. Mr nightmare and Mr ballen having an hour each in their respective styles. That would absolutely shut down RUclips

How sad for Simone & her family. Liquor combined with anger is never a good thing. This time it was a deadly mix. My sympathies to Simone’s family and friends. Adrian! I love your Coffeehouse Christmas decor….& I love listening to you narrate these awesome stories. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year! ❤️✝️
Hi Adrian, thank you so much for covering this case! I sent through this suggestion so long ago, I honestly thought you didn’t think it was interesting enough to cover.
It’s such a sad case & hopefully it’s put to rest soon as it’s been a long time & her family need closure. I’m glad you used the news footage that you did, as it clearly shows the many inconsistencies in the media reporting, both back when it happened, & still to this day.
Also, in regards to Lismore’s floods - the town was hit by a record breaking 14m flood in Feb 2022, then another almost as big exactly 1 month later. The town still looks like a war zone, with many traumatised people still living in tents & caravans in their yards - so many houses are completely unliveable. The Gollan pub mentioned in your video was decimated & is unlikely to reopen, along with so many other businesses & buildings in the CBD
Hi just wanted to say thank you ! Love your work
Watched you from when you had 200K subs...am still shocked at how quickly you ve grown your channel, I used to watch you and wondered whether ppl would find your channel, am so happy, keep going brother xx
Hi Adrian from Hong Kong at 3.17AM.
Could not sleep....watching your channel to divert my mind from insomnia. Thk U
I had never heard of this case. I’m from the U.S. and this reminds me of the case that happened here last year of Gabby Petito. It strangely has a LOT of similarities.
Gabby’s felt very much different than this. Besides backpacking, that’s the only similarity that seems to present itself 🤷🏽♀️
Rest in peace Simone 🕊🌻
Prayers for your family and friends 🙏
I hope your killer'(s) are brought to justice
It's not weird for people in Australia to walk around without shoes on. So many of my mates do it. My girlfriend walks into the city barefoot, so on a campsite it's nothing. Just one of those things Down under!
When I visited Australia I would be far more likely to take my shoes off in the city than in a grassy area, because of the insects. Though of course they vary between cities and states.
True, however I know that I tend to always at least wear thongs when walking around in the bush or foresty areas, since sharp rocks, small twigs and, depending on the area, those pain-in-the-ass needle leaves are everywhere. In my opinion, stepping on those bs needle leaves is worse than stepping on legos.
Sincerely, a fellow Aussie
They do the same in South Africa.its not a strange sight at all.walking around barefoot is a common sight specially during summer
Even in Germany there are people walking barefoot around town
@@theacecase7939 thongs are flip flops right?

Watching people die is so much fun if you're mentally ill. Women are vile
@@RAAZR- I said a good video, you weirdo. I didn’t say anything to the effect of what you’re implying 🤦🏼♀️
@@jenniferwilson9129 Get some help and stop replying to me
@@RAAZR- You go first 😄
It is outrageous the authorities did not bother to search for three days. If they had searched sooner, there would surely have been more opportunity to gather evidence. And even if someone is just lost, finding them sooner will help their chances of survival. Australia is looking a lot less inviting as a travel destination.
Tobias clearly did lie to investigators and should have been held to account for that much earlier. But as for who did away with Simone, the evidence is very thin (due to the authorities neglecting her disappearance for days). My feeling is that, sadly, this case will never be resolved unless someone decides to talk. If they go to trial with nothing for evidence except sketchy behavior and a hair (which any attorney could easily explain), I can't imagine a jury convicting.
The aussie authorities are almost completely useless when it comes to missing persons. When my parents listed my older brother as missing, the police told them they had to wait at least 48hrs before they would start to search for him. A few days later, his body was found in his car, parked next to a rest stop. In the 48hrs the cops had told my parents to wait, he'd committed suicide. To this day, I believe there's a strong chance that he would still be alive if the cops had started searching for him straight away.
Is it just me, or does this channel just keep getting better and better with each video?
Yes I think the same. I stopped watching early on when one ep Adrian said "now sit back and enjoy" or something and I thought it was inappropriate to talk about "enjoying" a murder report. But I was drawn back by his consistency and commitment and I have felt great respect for the victims in all eps I've watched lately. Also Adrian has either got a good editor, or has learnt to cut excess words to create a nice, tight script that doesn't repeat itself or use unnecessary words. I think he is getting better and better with every video. Bravo.
Adrian. Thanks so much for your time.
Adrian, have you ever considered writing a book? of any sort, non-fic, fiction, personal essays? your research skills are so good, you have a natural way with pacing a narrative & you have a lovely way with words, you'd probably make a brilliant writer- although I guess your delivery is a big part of why your vids are so enjoyable & we wouldn't get that in a book!
Update in case anyone is watching this later, the charges were dropped due to lack of evidence, so much so infact that the prosecution had to pay him $190,000 asd to cover his legal fees.
Thanks for covering the cases that I've never heard of before!
Made my morning, as usual. 👌
My prayers to Simone’s family and friends. I hope justice is soon served.
"Are now estranged clans with shattered trust", it's succinct passages like this that keep me coming back every episode!! Oh and the coffee too!
Thank you for subtitling Australian news presenter. No joke, it made it easier to understand her.
Happy holidays Adrian. Thanks for your great dedication 💕 stay safe
Knowing the dump that Lismore is - Im impressed, you almost convinced me it was nice! 😂
I lived for a while in that caravan park - there is no way you couldnt walk around the perimeter and not have found her. Its suspect that no-one did for days so Im not surprised they had trouble solving the case.
Rip Simona. What a long drawn out ordeal for her family.

Anothher great episode, Adrian. Very sad. I hope Simone gets the justice she deserves now
He was angry, tired, drunk and pissed off, and he killed her. He should confess. How anyone could live with that guilt is scary.
if there were 100 angry, tired and drunk pissed off people...how many do you think would kill?
@@skagenpige88 look in the bushes near by lol
You should send your evidence to the authorities right away. You are just as bad for withholding what you know. Unless you don't actually know anything.....
I'm often angry, tired, drunk and pissed off. I don't kill people because I'm not a filthy murderer. All those things are no excuse
This ignorance of the court of public opinion is what gets people convicted wrongly at times far before the trial it allows detectives to be lazy you wasnt there you truly dont know anything you haven't poured over the evidence you have watched a video thst gives details and eludes to aome odd behavior from her partner with no concrete evidence
My first time actually drinking a coffee while watching Coffeehouse Crime
Another extremely well presented case. I absolutely love the way you narrate and provide all the facts.
The problem with the case itself is, if all they have is a strand of hair, it doesn’t prove anything. They were a couple and a hair can go on her easily. I want to think the boyfriend did it but there is absolutely no proof whatsoever. Also sometimes innocent people don’t want to say they argued as they know they are already police’s number one suspect. But then his behaviour after her disappearance was so odd. I really don’t know what to think. Simone and her family deserve justice and closure and I hope they do get it.
I really enjoy your intros. Describing the towns/countries where events in the case take place. You almost lull me into thinking I'm about to watch a travel show, and then BOOM, get straight into the nitty gritty.
By the way, my 7yo Son is the only other person I know who is so polite and constantly saying 'by the way" 😊
Watching as soon as notification cane through. Awesome videos dude 😎
Thanks!
Oh man, never thought I'd see this one on here. Like another commentator, I was a young child (six or seven I believe) in Lismore when this happened and it shocked the whole town. Everyone was horrified and I remember us talking about it on the school playgrounds at Lismore Heights Primary School. I've since moved away to Melbourne, but I always kept an eye on this case in the hopes that he would be arrested.
Thanks Adrien I love this channel!

Hi, I don't know if you do cases from this far back but I think the 1989 murder of Edward Baldock by Tracey Wigginton and her three accomplices would be an interesting story for you to cover. Its regarded as one of the most bizarre cases in Australian criminal history and has the moniker of the 'Lesbian Vampire Killer'. Just wanted to bring it up since I live in the city where it happened and hearing one of my lecturers bring it up as a case study. Anyway, Merry Christmas.
Terrible australian cases. With the damage done to the tourism incomes and industry, i understand the amount of cameras
This case has been covered extensively on other true crime channels tho…
'this far back'....... God I'm old 😒
😂
@Ms Bliss Just stop having so much crime.
Nah that case has been done to death, I'd like to see the case of Stuart Rattle covered. I have a feeling his prominent family got the coverage squashed
The case of James Hanratty being hanged (the last man in England) for the brutal attack of Valerie Storey and her partner at the time, is a very interesting and twisted case with many plot twists that would make for an amazing video in your style...
Keep up the good work!
This is a difficult case because he was probably aware that if he said yes, they did have an argument that people would have accused him of murdering his girlfriend (so it could be a reason why he lied). Also, they were living in close proximity so it is possible that she had a hair on her from him anyway. The thing I find most suspicious is that he left so soon after she went missing. If someone I loved went missing I would be distraught and first do everything I could to find them, I would only go home when I really had to.
true
Factsssss
The combination of professionalism and personal sentiments from you is received with gratitude, the experiences of the victims in your stories are truly sad however awareness is essential, so I’m thankful to the way you deliver them with such care.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you and your loved ones 🎉

His response is very aggressive. I never believe it when people describe a relationship as perfect. You don't know.
Exactly. YOU don’t know
You know what they say too much positivity can kill.
I feel the need to share my own experience because it may help you understand how difficult it is to judge such things. I experienced something traumatic and, when asked to come in to "talk about it," was shocked to find that they did not believe I was a victim, but was actually the suspect, and I was taken to a small room and interrogated. I was shocked, angry, desperate, and any other emotion you can imagine. Believe me, my response was aggressive. They told me that I would be sent away for a very long time, I would never work in my field again (I taught at a university and would never be able to work in that field, and many others, as a felon- imagine trying to find any job after prison), my minor child would be taken away from me and I would not see them for a very long time, my name would be all over the front page for a long time (I lived in a small city where such things are front-page news), especially during the trial, and on and on. Everything I'd ever worked for - my family, my house, my reputation, my career, my sanity - would be gone. My life would be ruined. For almost a year, I fought back and got a lawyer, but felt like I was shouting into the void. The police would not believe me. They used faulty science that they felt pointed to me, and would not listen to reason, nor would they consider that I'd never been in trouble in any way, so there was no pattern, so to speak. I went into a tailspin, feeling broken, unheard and alone, crying myself to sleep every night, and was suicidal. I was going to kill myself. In the end, their contact with me became less frequent until I stopped hearing from them. But, I was told that the statute of limitations was 17 years, so, even though I try not to think about it, I still haven't been able to breathe a sigh of relief. There are still 8 years left. Before all of this happened to me, I had many beliefs that I no longer carry: the police can spot lying (they can't), they use good up-to-date science and, when a suspect commits suicide, it's because they were guilty and couldn't face the punishment. I wish I'd never gone through what I went through, as it has completely changed me and has also tainted my view of police. Sorry for this long comment. I do hope it contains some value for you and/or others. As for whether or not Tobias is guilty, I honestly don't know, but answering aggressively could indicate guilt or innocence. I reacted the same way when I was asked if it did it (I wasn't accused of murder, but it was a very serious accusation that could potentially carry a term of 10-20 years or more). Thank you for reading this far, if you did!
@@Andrea-xs4ny- I am so sorry to hear what you went through. I also fully understand what you are saying. Believe me, even if I am witness to a car accident, I don't volunteer any assistance to the police because I know how it can come back and haunt one. They appear to have targets to meet and any candidate can be panel-beaten to fill their quotas.
BUT, I must also add... Once when I needed the police, they went out their way to assist me and for that I am grateful. If only they were all like that.
I know the worry you are living with and hope all is quiet between now and your statute of limitations.
Best wishes and have a happy festival season.

This was so sad. I have seen what alcohol does to people. They're okay with that fourth or fifth beer, but have that sixth, and a whole new person emerges. I pray the family finally gets closure and justice will be served. May Simone rest peacefully and eternally. 🕊️🙏❤️
yup, I had a roommate that pretty much was a completely different person when she drank, and not the good kinda different.
Good thing that the new person that emerges from me after 6th beer is just cuddly blabbering moron that only wants to go to sleep :V
But yeah I do know some people for whom that transformation is not that calm, let's just say.
@@Magepure6749 , I'm the same loveable and funny girl I am when I drink. I haven't drank, by choice, in over 12 years. Lots of internal medical issues.
Surely there is more evidence than what has been released! I can’t see a murder conviction after 20 years with such little and circumstantial evidence. RIP and thoughts are with her friends and family ❤️
It happens all the time. Often the arrest is done to acquire DNA evidence even if they don't have any other evidence to present. They were hoping the DNA matched, but it doesn't seem like it did because they are now turning their attention elsewhere.
@@halofornoobs93 interesting. I really hope it gets solved for the families sake.
What evidence do investigators really have? Her bf’s hair on her body is circumstantial. He was in close proximity with her as they were intimate. I am not 100% convinced he killed her.
Always nice to see u Adrian
An excellent and compassionate summary!
Love listening to you talk. It’s heartwarming. But my heart goes out to those affected by these tragic stories.
You're one of the best. Keep up the great work!😁
It seems it was obviously the boyfriend but without concrete evidence he goes free. I really don’t know how people can live with such a guilt hanging over one’s head.
They can live with it because they DONT feel the guilt. So it’s easy to go on about their lives.
If it is a full blown narcissist, they can kill. No consciousness and no remorse. Look at this imperialistic system...buy and SELL..advertisements EVERYWHERE, Slavery income(poor) media FEEDING people with FEAR...so they(governments)can use and abuse the SLAVES(we common people)😊
They care for their slaves just to obey... so be quite and work your way to FREEDOM 😅😂😂
