Eligibility for parole in 35 years (for a 24 year old murderer) is a bit merciful. So maybe it worked.

Sexual predator was on the prowl. So sad that Lori was the woman who was too kind to say no to his pressure for a drive. I hate how these killers get to spin lies to save their hide from prison. And I don’t think his sentence was severe enough. Justice system needs to value women more. A kind, loving woman was brutally taken from the world. A scumbag loser POS gets to stay. He should have life, NO parole. He is a deceptive sexual predator and murderer.

There should not be any mitigating circumstances when someone is murdered because the murderer usually lies about the murder.

Stop telling women how to behave, dress, whether they should drink, or whether out of the kindness of their heart's they shouldn't be nice to strangers. From what her friends and family say, being a kind, caring, and trusting woman was a huge part of who she was, and it should not be used to blame her for what happened to her.

The character assassination of Lori by the culprit & his legal team is a disgrace. As for the methadone in her system, I'm on a drug for bipolar that can give false-positive results in drug tests for methadone, so it's quite possible she was on similar medication.

Ya well ,worse things have happened to better ppl.. Can't teach common sense... and common sense would naturally tell you not to pick up stranges..Her Ignorance is what got her killed..dumb girl. Correction, dumb dead girl..

As awful as these stories are, I really appreciate all the TC channels out there. They truly spread awareness and hopefully the victims/families get some answers. Your channel is absolutely great at every aspect Thank you for all your hard work. I'm not through the video yet & I'm already recoiling at this. 😮😢 RIP angel 🕊🌹❤️‍🩹 Prayers for the families.

@@Adrian-zd4cs It seems casinos there are very small scale and non regulated. Here in Quebec there is so much security, over the top... They will escort a losing client to a waiting taxi in case they are suicidal. Given gamblers are often compulsive this is a necessity. I assume she figured he was a young kid, like her own... That's why she IDed him and probably gave him a lift out of guilt because he appeared incapacitated... Mentally yes, physically no. Sad loss. Any casino needs the strictest protocol against fraternizing with clients. Look at that casino shooter that shot hundreds. His gf worked there, giving him inside information. People working in casinos need to set their own stricter boundaries. She should have refused him service outright, he was already problematic from the bar before...

You bring the stories in an honest and gentle way. Thank you.

57? She looks 37

57 she looked good r.i.p

Man... this one hit close to home for me.. i had the exact same job as her at a bar/casino.. locked up late at night alone.. having to run creeps off before closing.. weird people asking for rides home. That guy looked weird... i definitely would NOT have given him a ride. Situational awareness is a MUST HAVE with a job like this. Especially if you're a woman unfortunately. Prayers for her family... it's a shame a person gets killed for trying to be nice and helpful. She probably started second guessing her decision as soon as he got in. Kudos to her for scratcing the shit out of him and clinching his guilt! No way she offered the ride first.. you can tell in the viseo she was stopped by someone and asked. Pretty hard to appeal when you confess in a courtroom in front of a judge and many othet witnesses.

LADIES! Don't ever assume that a male is harmless just because he's polite and soft-spoken. In so many cases, these are wolves in sheep's clothing. A wolf will disguise himself as mild-mannered to gain your trust, and then he'll viciously attack with no mercy.

If you want another example that most don’t know about google the couple in Tennessee that were tortured and murdered by black thugs. Warning though because what happened to the young whyte couple is so disturbing that you might lose sleep over it. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Selfish, heartless and disgusting, there are too many men doing things like this. Do they realise they are an actual person? That she deserved to enjoy her life as much as he did? That she doesn’t want to feel fear and pain or die the same way he doesn’t? That she didn’t deserve too? That to put someone through that is sad and unfair? Do they not think leaving her to live her life was more important than a short-lived thrill? That she was someone’s daughter, mother, sister and they had no cause to take her from them? I pray he suffers, I really do.

As just wrote elsewhere in the comments, he was an opportunistic psychopath/sociopathic predator. This is someone who can play a game of politeness to the outside world but rotten to the core on the inside.

I live near this area. The towns surrounding Laurel are infamous for crime and unsolved murders. I cannot find anyone from America to take on the myriad of cases in my area. Between the "suicided" and the "missing Indigenous", it's a disconcerting situation. The case of Jalen Williams, a young black man found deceased - naked and deeply wounded on the backside of his body (as if he were dragged), is just one of these cases. I got Krime with Kait, out of Canada to do an hour long story on him, but we need more coverage. This case took place in Livingston, MT in February 2023. Thanks for this great work.
