Thankyou so much :)

I agree. I like how he tells these stories - just the facts, no drama.

I love how they remind us humans have been selfish shitty people consistently. What motive for murder in 1756 is still the motive in 2022 (life insurance, robbery, cheating spouses, covering up corruption, etc)

Well said!!🌎🙏🏼🪔🪶☯️

Well said! Brilliant

I think Helen should’ve known better if her husband choses to kill their own unborn baby, that means he wasn’t worth being married to! What kind of man does that? It was a huge red flag!

@@renatacuriosa Agreed

Got any stories?

I agree.

Me too

Me too 😘

Thanks Brenda

Yes. I seriously wonder that he didn't deliberately botch the abortion. He made SURE the fetus was dead, and then just left it inside? That is a very STRANGE botch he HAD to have known... He wanted her to die of infection. Or blood loss from an eventual miscarriage.

I feel sorry for her, but she was stupid af. Imagine being treated like that and still wanting to be with him, plus asking HIM for medicine after the botched abortion he performed on her...Come on!

I think she had what they call a trauma bond.

I think her mother shamed her into marrying him for real. She probably believed marrying him was the only way to avoid a scandal that would destroy her reputation.

@@chickenlover657 It's actualy for a simple reason - she had no other option - no other person to help her, so she gone with the devli she knew. In her time as a woman there was not much power in het hands to do something abaut his abuse.

@@katarinatibai8396 Don't be ridiculous.

I'm in Western Australia and I've heard that New Zealand is getting battered by cyclone Gabrielle. Please stay safe!

Do stay safe.💜 Hopefully a bit of Brief Case eases the stress, even if only briefly.

Stay safe and take good care of yourself! Hugs from Italy

Keep safe mate!

I'm in Israel and I haven't checked the news today.Stay safe in New Zealand!

Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. I always side eye people who talk about how back in the day were "simpler times"🙄

They did have better judgment. Read the Little House on the Prairie books. The geography and math 8 year olds had to know- Yale students couldn't learn or recite today! But there has always been a segment of the population that is gullible, and the evil ones lying in wait for them

@@faefae2260 Simple AND boring!

@@faefae2260 Less red tape and more rights for the victims although more innocent people were prosecuted as well I’d assume.

That’s what I thought too. But thanks to the internet and access to information which wasn’t known worldwide I’m finding out otherwise. I’m following another channel called “Leaving the Message.” It’s about a Pentecostal preacher (one of their heroes) whose ministry was mostly a coverup for political agendas. Which included the KKK, Nazis, and all kinds of stuff! It’s so deep one day I need to start to listen to them over again from the beginning. You’d be surprised who all can be connected to this cult! I used to think the people in the Mtns where my mom grew up were perfect people. Lol! I’ve since found out differently. Affairs and all kinds of stuff. I think each generation thinks bad things didn’t happen way back. On a funny note: my grandson (he’s almost 19 now) used to think that because old tv shows were black and white way back , that the world was really black and white back then. No colors. Lol! Even he laughs and tells people that now.

💯💯💯 Back in the "good old days" when every rich scum bag was caled a gentleman... Good that he don't become a doctor - he would be bulletproof.

He would have become very much like H.H Holmes who had more then 200 victims

Exactly. He thought he was gonna be smart and keep 2 tablets because he knew she was gonna die. So he gives them the two he had which was exactly what he said he had given her but the dosage he gave was lethal. Poor Helen; she was just looking for love.

Thanks Melissa :)

Thanks for watching

Not wanting a scandal? In the 40s 50s and early 60s SCANDALS were of paramount importance! Got pregnant as a teenage girl? You suddenly disappeared from school and were gone for a year "visiting their aunt"...dyed your hair at home with "flaming sherry"?? Your mother bundled you down the back stairs and made you sit on the floor of the car so NO ONE WOULD SEE YOUR HIDEOUS HAIR!! You were driven to the family hairdresser to dye your hair back to brown and NO ONE was ever to know what you did!! How things LOOKED were very important.

Poor Helen was dumb af and her mother no better.

Some things never change 😢

he deserved it.

I have very mixed feelings about capital punishment as a whole, but I find the electric chair as shameful as any form of execution that has ever come from humanity. It's understandable why society considered it and advancement at first, just because harnessed electricity was new, and even believed it to be more humane than prior methods just because it was relatively bloodless and didn't appear to cause the kind of pain people could imagine from prior survived experiences (like being cut, burned or even shot). Then there's the fact that the voltage overrides brain signals to all muscles including even those of the larynx, so it's impossible to struggle or even scream, making such an assault appear painless. But if you've had any big electric shocks like I have, you know how bad it really is. Just me personally, I wouldn't even call it pain, it's something worse, a kind of 'bad' so strange, if I experienced it in (say) the Middle Ages, I would surely assume it came from a witch's spell, and might call for some local person to burn at the stake. So I find it particularly ironic for the "good guys" of society to kill "bad guys" (some of whom were literally proved innocent after execution) by using a technology that burns from the inside, cell-by-cell.

I don’t understand how with all the confiscated drugs that kill people daily from overdose that inmates with death sentence can’t be given the drugs and wouldn’t be any cost.

@@peaceworld5393 most definitely a humane way to die compared to the victims

I'm against capital punishment mostly because you can compensate the wrongly imprisoned but you can't revive a corpse and juries get it wrong all the time even if they get all the information, which doesn't always happen.

Just love all the cool cases. You really seem to know how to pick the most interesting cases.

You are inspiring me to try and write something like this. But damn it all, I'm too lazy.

@@pinup_charmer3348 I am, too. But this is just so interesting. It's worth it.

Thanks Berenice :)

If his mother made excuses for all his bad actions, that's enabling a sociopath.

I think it's because he probably exhibited some aberrant Behavior growing up but like too many mothers, she refused to see it and refused to acknowledge it. It's just easier to deny. Admitting it would mean she was complicit in some way by having reated and raised a monster and most people can't deal with that.

Ted Bundy's mother never believed that her "boy" committed all those murders. Even though he confessed everything to the police. She believed he was innocent until she died a few years ago.

Definatly intentional murder

Also I have a broken knee and chronic pain. So I have to take a low-dose opioid.. so this would have killed me very quickly. You get very sick taking opioids

There are some well known cases that I would like to do

@@BriefCaseOfficial your work is always stellar ! I enjoy every case. Many times I watch an older video again since there is so much information to sort through!👍

Thanks so much

So many women still being abused these days too

But do you ever wonder why women are so gullible and desperate?

If you study Freud, humans are born with no empathy or sympathy. They learn and develop it

Yeah, his theories problematic.....not sure i believe that

@@lazyhomebody1356 That is not correct. Freud never said that. Besides, Freud has been proven wrong on many counts.

@@chickenlover657 That's what the whole Id/Ego idea IS. I was summarizing. And no, he hasn't been "proven" wrong. Ideas have changed and people no longer can face harsh truths. He git most things right! Bettleheim and the other wussy behaviorists have been proven wrong! Infants aren't little lumps of goodness and they are only cute so people will take care of them!

SO well said!!!

They did know the cause morphine over dose go back and listen again

It makes me wonder if the parents of the killer of the 4 students in Moscow, Idaho, will end their lives believing he is innocent…. or if they will eventually accept reality.

There is a girl whose brother murdered their parents and her explanation is, he's the only family I have...

@lazyhomebody1356 .....all I can say to that is make a blank meme face. I can't begin to imagine what she went through though, but still. Wow.

Thankyou

I think he expected her to die
