Oh wow, that Mom in the Box case sure was interesting ! Some obvious mental health issues going on there.
I'm confused. Why did Mandy sleep with Tim before he killed her?
"Francesca had died from starvation and investigators didn't suspect foul play". You see, it's things like these that scream all over you're American. In Europe, dying of starvation IS considered foul play. Whether by denying the person food, shelter or psychiatric yhelp, the state is considered to blame.
i fully support using people's taxes to reopen case and investigate it again, knowing that it gives closure to a distressed family is satisfying and warms my heart.
Boy, you weren't kidding about Eddie's evil eyes! Creepy! Mom in the box story was interesting! It appears that while she had an ex-husband she did not have children. Or I missed you saying that about her. Some thing that may have been a good thing.
I love how the detective said to Tim “of course I did” about sneakily getting his DNA. Lol I love it, gotcha fucker!!
The last case is giving Ed Gein vibes…😮
Amanda’s mom was relentless in fighting to find out what happened to her daughter- she’s an incredibly strong woman that has clearly suffered a lot. I can’t imagine waiting so long and working so hard to find the killer… just to find out your neighbor, whom was so young at the time, was the person that was guilty. Prayers of healing🙏🏻 For the victims & their families/loved ones.
👍🏻
10:55 Sans souci (pronounced sahn – sue – see) is French for without a care or carefree. It's a very pretentious term or name.
Thanks
Maybe in the last case she stole her mother's body from the morgue? Or the mom died of natural causes and she kept her to save on burial costs?
So people who grow up in good areas can’t be killers???
I followed Amanda Savik's story a long time ago, and then again now… I hate to come across as "superficial".. Right is Right and Wrong is WRONG… Filters in my eyes, mind, etc… I will never understand why someone can just snuff out a beautiful live with not even any provocation… No, I get how they do it… It definitely isn't a special attribute, even if they are the most disgusting versions of horror.. Kids grown.. Single now and have lived a really good life.. LOVE my relatives.. However, I'd trade my life in a heartbeat if I could swap with Amanda, and most all others.. No, I wouldn't lay down and just die.. I'm sadly well experienced dealing with scum over the decades… Even if it weren't the case, I still would trade who I am today for good people.. The eyes and smiles don't lie.. Amanda Stavik (and the like) that have been stolen from the world is so much larger than the pain everyone who loves her / them… I'd say the same for someone that isn't pretty, a beautiful smile and eyes.. I'm just speaking on Amanda at the moment.. RIP beautiful young woman…
20:10 Ok Wait a Sec, im Confused. So the Eldey Black Woman here Was Killed & Raped by a Relative of hers?? Narrator explains it So Confusingly
…didnt consider him a suspect in a murder & rape investigation because he was from a good family. WTF??? No wonder it took multiple decades to solve.
joseph dimare’s case reflects so poorly on the police. from the second he was killed, she seemed guilty. she didn’t even half ass the crime scene staging, she quarter assed it. nothing fit what she said happened. shame on the police for not investigating her. i’m glad paul novak was able to confirm the truth to bring joseph’s kids some closure but the evidence he found is, again, embarrassing.
Shame on those two women for not coming forward sooner. I'm sorry, but that's 100% selfish.
I feel no sympathy for #3 murderer Eddie, who was put to death. What he did to young Lisa was despicable.
thanks for sharing that last one.
Thank you for including the Mom in the Box story. The world is filled with very strange people.
Ok Number 1 just creepy to me
Wait….how did the woman in the "Mom in the box" case, starve to death? How could she have done that on here own? It's a weird way to go. It leads me to believe she couldn't afford food. But still that is weird to have an apartment but no food. Strange.
They never checked him out because 'he came from a good family'? What the hey?
Thank you for another amazing video
🥀
Love from the Caribbean
His boss is a real one! Thank god she got his dna he thought he really got away with it, living his life like he didn’t take her life…. Evil & sick !
I wonder how many suspects have been missed over the years because police dismissed them immediately because they came from ‘a good family’! I’m so happy Mandy’s family has some closure.
My uncle was one of the prosecutors on Leesa’s case and has kept in contact with her mother for 23 years. He supported her through his execution and says her mother is glad Loden cannot harm anyone else ever again.
Can you imagine losing two of your children to murder?!
That last case was a doozy. Thanks for covering it.

I love your channel ❤❤
Can someone please explain it to me, why do black folks, some of them, have bloody yellowish merky eyes. Like really yellowish. Is it due to some illness or drugs? If so, what in particular? Thanks in advance.
RIEP Lillian 🌹
Horrific.
The police was so incompetent with Joseph Dimare's case. There were red flags all over his wife. The fact that they took money only and didn't take his expensive accessories, the wife having no wounds after claiming she ran barefoot and her not telling people that her husband has been shot. Such a corrupt system Seriously for shame to those incompetent officers. Francise thought she won't also die, May she rot in hell. Am glad his son Richard Never gave up on his father's case. RIP Joseph. you didn't deserve what happened to you 😢 Rip to all the vicitims.
The first case…just because someone is from a “good family”, doesn’t mean they are good. Asshole cops🤦🏻♀️
That last case sounds like a true version of "Psycho" but with a daughter instead of a son. That's really weird, and I'm glad you included it.
Congratulations Sir Richard, so sorry your poor father married a troll
OMG Tim Bass is so full of it, hes making all this up… Leesa's case, eesh, who r*pes and murders an 89 year old woman?
I appreciate the way you find lesser-known cases–at least to me–rather than just covering the same-old, same-old! Thank you.
That old gold digger to that murder to her grave sad sad sad
