OMG Right?!

Judge should be removed from the bench! I just read yesterday some dude smashed a kids head over something silly like leaving his bike in his driveway. Killed him and he was bailed!! 😱🤬 F'ing shocking!!

It shocked me. He's a vile scumbag.

@@maggie_o5233 wow!!

@@magdalenamezydlo1271 Yea I just looked it back up. Attacked a 6 yo with a sledgehammer for leaving his bike in his driveway. Judges must be held accountable for their actions and removed from the bench when they fail to protect victims of crime and the public .

How are you doing?

Right, they didn't just assume she ran away & waited a month before searching. The early search made a difference.

Yeah this was awesome 👏

Yeah, if they hadn’t have taken het mother seriously and investigated sooner than 24 hours that they normally wait, Ashlee would have died.

Kudos for believing the BF and knowing that scumbag was the perpetrator!

w/ her strength she'll get better and better

The miracle is how much trust her boyfriend had in her. He had given her his truck and she used it to go to a rendezvous with a guy who then choked her and threw her out like trash.

her teacher clearly groomed her @@duvessa2003 I wonder how many others he groomed.

@@duvessa2003your comments are all negative towards women, your bias is showing. I bet you’d kill a women too.

Same. I'm glad Ashley somehow connected with Elizabeth because that would change everything for her; she'd no longer be alone.

I completely agree…i find it awesome

She is great isn't she?

I respectfully disagree. Feel sorry for what happened to her but otherwise I don`t think she got the right job,

@@fredajordan5704 amen! She is lacking interview skills. Awkward to watch sometimes

Right?! That always has pissed me off!

I agree! Attempted murder should be the same as murder! Just because the perp didn't succeed, doesn't mean they didn't try. I hate that about our "justice" system.

I am baffled at Americ's "Justice" system sometimes. It was MURDER. The ending to these type of situations is usually never good. I am soo glad she survived, but at the end of the day, "attempted murder" charge is just a joke. The fact he will be up for parole in 2024 is just disgusting.

Totally agree. He had intent and thought she was dead

Yes!! I have said this for years!!! Attempted murder should hold the same sentence as 1st degree murder. The intent was there, you just weren't successful!

seeing her laying there with her neck broken made me tear up ,what a piece of filth that man is , he should never get out of jail

I wonder if her boyfriend forgave her. He was too trusting.

Yeah it’s incredible how such a small gesture, holding her hand, can be so powerful, & can, really in an instant, say so much, like in this case, saying the following: “We understand he hurt you badly, & that he decided to, not only end your life, but also, that you should die here, all alone - *that is not going to happen* because we’ve found you, we’re right here w/ you, & we’re not going anywhere w/out you.

The podcasts are new and the only thing being made right now. This show has been canceled for some time now unfortunately.

I'm certain that many fathers feel this way when something like this happens to their child. It's a normal reaction to something that horrific.

I can empathize. If it were my child, dude might have not made it to trial.

And won't most likely do nothing to him. So many can talk the talk but not walk the walk.

Why would you tell that to the whole world? If something happens to this monster, they might subpoena you! Wtf

Agreed. More programs need people like her interviewing victims rather than nosey Nancys like the one and only Nancy Grace.

She’s fulfilling her purpose. I didn’t even know it was her.

It says so much about her strength

I think she might really be able to help people with these experiences. I feel like even when you know it’s not your fault there’s that self blame or what could’ve been different moments. I think she’s a great example, she took her power back and didn’t let trauma or fear run her life even at a young age. I hope she gets everything she wants from life ❤️

I know they said her name but I just came into realization it was her 😭 amazing

Amen!

not if he ever shows up at my house for any reason

That’s like, so soon. And knowing those Illinois softy judges, he’ll probably walk out.

Definitely!!!🤬

Imagine here in my country (Canada), max penalty for 1st degree murder is life with parole after 25 years, 2nd degree the absolute max is 25 years. It's an absolute joke. If your lawyer's good enough they'll downgrade you to a manslaughter and face 4 months - 4 years. I've seen multiple cases of double murder getting 25-30 years only, and released them on parole. Hell an old coworker got 29 years for bank robberies in the 80s, and yet murderers get special treatment. The justice system is so flawed all over the place.

Just because a person is eligible for parole doesn't mean it will be granted and since Ashley is such a fighter, I imagine she will show up to every one of his hearings with photos and documentation of what he did to her. Oftentimes, victim impact statements seal the deal for judges not to let the perpetrator out so easily.

It's wrong that because she was so strong, that scumbag got LESS prison time. Like, WTF? That POS did everything he could for her to die and they should sentence him accordingly.

It was only attempted murder you can’t give life for that

'only'? Two questions. Did he try multiple methods to finish her off when he didn't succeed at first? Did he leave her for dead and think he was leading the cops to a corpse? Yes to both, ergo he killed her in his mind. The fact she was extremely strong, she lived then had to rehabilitate herself as if she'd had a major stroke is kudos to her, not him Hang him high haha :0

Next time he isn't going to leave a witness..

@@ziggypop8106 agree with you, I was thinking the same..just luck that she's alive. Listening to him, he was finishing her off!! He deserves life!!

Agree, 100%! That vile, oxygen thief seduced her and what 17 yr. old female, or male for that matter, would turn down the good looking teacher! Kids in high school cheat all the time. So do adults. The difference is growing up and taking responsibility for your actions. No one deserves what this young woman endured.

Some people mess with other people's minds Shelton is a predator

It's not as simple as he was just cheated on though. She was a minor, and the teacher groomed her, and when she tried to end things with him, he got mad and tried to kill her, using several methods, before leaving her for dead

@@diaryhome4943 she was 17. She knew it’s wrong to cheat on her boyfriend. Of course we feel sorry for her but can’t deny that she did cheat on her boyfriend. He wouldn’t have found out if the teacher didn’t try to kill her

@@rlmelendez91 LOL. I expected to be crucified for this comment. So big up that some folks agree. It was just so out of left field in my humble opinion.

You are really not in the know. She had no serious injuries. Her neck was never broken and the police knew this the night they found her. They even lied to the judge about this the morning Shelton was arraigned. Why? To make things look much worse than they were. Wheelchair bound? She rode on the back of a motorcycle to her high school graduation a few weeks later! Shelton made a false confession. His family was being extorted. They refused to pay. Just like the crap on sites like this, everything is sensationalized and an innocent man went to prison to protect his family from unscrupulous players who just wanted to further their pathetic careers and a family who wanted to line their pockets. If you want to hear about the real Ashley, watch "Ashley Reeves Fact Check1" on KZfaq. This is her boyfriend's police interrogation. He's not lying in this. She owed drug money to an unknown drug dealer, had had multiple abortions, etc. Watch it and open up your eyes. Oh, and by the way, two other teachers at other districts lost their jobs because they were forced to leave their districts because Ashley would not leave them alone.
