  2. 17:50 I am not sensing he is a super bad guy. Is he masking it? The cop is doing a good job of mirroring and meeting him where he is at. Nice interrogation. I wonder he distanced himself to cool things down, or escape domestic duties? 28:27 Now I believe his is a calculating psychopath.

  3. "This happened because she came into Your space today. You didn't go into Her space! Right??"

    "Well no.. I mean just to use the bathroom earlier.. And then I had to shower.. Oh and then I needed to do a load of laundry so I was kind of in and out for that.. And of course I gotta eat so I helped myself into the kitchen a few times to cook.. I didn't stay and do the dishes I dirtied because, well you know.. It's been awkward.. but other than that, No!" 😂😂🙄

    So basically the "deal" was he still got to do whatever tf he wanted, come in and out as he pleased, was already dating someone new so he was gone all the time, and his three kids he brought into the marriage were living under her roof and she was the one taking care of them… Yeah I can't think of any reason she would've had to be bitter or resentful of this guy.. 🙄🙄

  4. If they got married and she had legally adopted his three kids, that means their birth mother signed over her rights to them and she became their mom. Just because you get divorced, that does not make you stranger to the children you adopted. You're still their parent, regardless of whether or not the parents are together. I have to disagree with that statement, that she was a stranger to them. It sounds like they were still living in the house with her, while he was staying in the shack and going off with his new gf..

  5. That is insanely cold… Holy sht!! I didn't wanna help her because I feel like she just tried to kill me… Wowzers.

    He also loves throwing in that "she weighs 330 pounds" line doesn't he 😂😂

  6. As a man who is in love with a dominant woman, I often experience fear and high anxiety. But even if I thought I would die from smothering or something, I would never fight back. The way to handle dominant women is to SUBMIT at ALL TIMES!!!! ♀🛐

  7. I fell in love with the detective at around 37 minutes in, when he was humouring the perp, who was talking about 'how to make people better'. You could hear the amusement in the detective's voice 😅

  8. My 4mer husband and I are best of friends. While we live in different states he's been @ my place over a month helping me get things in order 4me 2sell…yes, I realize what a Blessing this is
    p.s. "YOU MADE UP 4IT"!!! + this guy gives waaay 2much info…his words + drawing+ he's GUILTY as H–E-🏒🏒

  9. And yes, I love this detective. He has been very cool with this suspect for the entire time. Made him feel comfortable enough to open and up, and boom… he gets the truth. Awesome vid!!

  10. Right in the beginning he couldn't say which hand she was holding the gun with. He said he prob the right, cause she was right handed, then quickly started getting into something else. You should be able to picture it

  11. I have never experienced an interrogation where the individual brags about their gun skills. "I hit centre mass, i dont miss", "my draw time is" buddy shut upppp. You're trying to stay out of jail lol 🥴
