DNA from a plant just tells what kind of plant. It doesn't tell you exactly which plant. This is absurd. It's certainly not like that was the only Juniper tree in the area.

That's the good ole judicial system in 'MERICA!

I couldn't agree more. The grandparents in China should have received full custody.

Not to mention Mengqui’s parents’ feelings, having to communicate with the mother of the man who killed their only daughter and dump her body carelessly like she’s trash. And the recorded conversations were anger inducing.

You are so right!

Exactly, I couldn't agree more eneobande7433

Unfortunately, the child's only opportunity to live and be educated in the country of her birth, her natural citizenship, is to live with the paternal grandparent. The maternal grandparents will have several months every year to expose the child to the truth of who they are, and who her mother was. In that way, a kind of balance is struck. She will love all her grandparents and know when she's old enough to understand that her father killed her mother. She'll have all the evidence she needs to really know the truth.

​@@jeanvigneswhy give the child to parents that raised a murderer?

@@jeanvignessadly enough, she’ll be around the same age as her mother when that murderer is released from jail.

So sad 😢

So so sad

He was a rare one, he truly cared and wanted to bring those who could not speak for themselves, justice. If there is an afterlife I hope that man went to Heaven and he could tell Mengqi personally that he brought justice for her.

My heart sank when I read your comments that Prosecutor Dan has passed away. What a great human!

Apparently it was suicide :(

I don't know why I have a feeling it was not suicide, idk. I just have this strong feeling there's more to his death...

​@@Bbydoll90he probably was so haunted by all the evil he saw or maybe he suffered from mental health and took his life 😢

Tootie, yes, the murderer's mother saying it was out of character for her son to be violent when he was plainly, terribly abusive verbally proves she has no ability to raise his little girl. Courts and the public have to get wise to coercion in relationships, how dangerous it is, and how fundamentally unequal. (For his mother to take the position that she could and should be non-judgemental and even-handed between her son and Mengqi shows how ignorant she was about this offensive, dangerous behavior. Lundy Bancroft is an expert on this man's personality type and has several good books on the subject. Women, educate yourselves. We can protect ourselves with knowledge!)

Thank you!!!!! They should have never given her custody.

Still trying to figure out how the mother can say it was out of character for him when she was called to the house to mediate his violent temper. He expressed his desire to hurt her in front of the mother. She should be the one with summer visits and her parents should have primary custody.

@@kickrockspleze Yes! She should be the one with the summer visits...if at all! (And he expressed his desire to hurt the wife in front of the mother??! I missed that. For God's sake! That someone so blind should have custody of another child -- and likely to mess it up again! -- is a terrible mistake.)

I hate that they gave the daughter to the mother, who was a complete enabler of his abhorrent behavior.

There’s no worse omen in a relationship than a person who feels hurt by their partner’s success.

I don't know. It takes two. I don't condone what he did by any means but if he was in love with her and the child and she was lying to him and using him for a green card..

​@niraku321 where did you get that she was lying to him? I think she was In love with him but he showed his true colors when they got married and he knew she needed him in order to stay in the US. And of course she would want to stay! they already had a baby together!

so u came to America for Green Card lol

Love how you put this!!

And his enabling mother gets majority custody of her granddaughter. The mother of a murderer raising the child of the woman he killed! Disgusting.

​@@NefariousEvildoertruly turns my stomach but I'm grateful to know she will get to spend a good deal of time with her mother's parents still I think it works out in a way

You have NO idea how she raised her son. None. This guy is a GROWN MAN. HE is responsible for his actions. His mother was not and isn't on trial. It's easy to spew these things out of anger- but ultimately none of us know how he was raised. We are our own person. We all have a blueprint to who we are. Also, some parents can't fathom the fact that they have a kid who did this. Assumptions of a person does not make it true.

It's pretty horrible. The Chinese grandparents should've gotten full custody. I get the feeling that they didn't really understand American law well and therefore probably didn't put up enough of a fight.

My thoughts exactly!

Yup - made my post before I read yours. That was stunning. You know they keep in contact with their murderer son. This girl will grow up with that. Stunning, simply stunning. I don't care how "good" they are - that's not the point. They have no right to that child.

America. It's not shocking.

@@jenna-a-gogo The grandparents on both sides might believe his disgusting lies. And I don't understand how his mother can sleep at night knowing that she was told about the controlling nature of her son and did nothing to help.

Exactly my thoughts! How could they?? is it because she’s and American citizen? I had to comfort myself around that thought !

The mother appeared to speak truth into her son's life. She shouldn't be held accountable for his sins...especially since she didn't appear to show signs of enabling him. I am glad the grandparents on both sides are trying to show unity and peace in raising the child. The child already has to deal with enough turmoil and discord with being separated from her parents and the horrible circumstances surrounding the reason why. Be well and be at peace.

How did she not enable him. Notice how chill she was when he was talking if he should have smacked etc his mother in law. She barely only said “you don’t want to go there”. Even just the fact she want to keep the child

@@eraldadevole Going ballistic doesn't help when you are already dealing with crazy. You also don't know what else was said.. this is an edited show. Be well and be at peace.

​@@Kizzyfranthe bigger issue is likely that the girl is not a Chinese citizen. China doesn't have dual citizenship. It may be impossibly difficult for her to get Chinese citizenship, and if course she would have to surrender American citizenship. It's not like being a dual Irish American citizen. That's just not how it works there.

My abusive ex boyfriend mother is this way she swears she just can't for the life of her understand why he's that way Ohhhh BS!!! Literally enables him by running to his saving grace even after he has beaten a helpless woman she bails him out, sends him money etc and somehow can't fathom why he always wants his way These mothers of narcs are FULL OF IT 🤬

The fact she'd go on TV to say these things as well...Even if I thought that, I would come on TV and be nothing but apologetic. I'm very concerned for the child. 😢

I definitely agree with you!

Came here to the comments to say the same. That child should be with the maternal grandparents, period! It just makes my stomach turn that the same parent who raised such a monster is raising their child? WTF?!?! My jaw literally flew open when I heard the custody arrangement. And only 28 years for that POS?!?! Just disgusting.

@@TheKissyfer Oh yes, I know, I completely agree with you on everything that you said! 😐

The mother knew her son's behaviour...wtf is wrong with people and ignorance

Mengqi’s daughter should go back to Mengqi’s parent.

Likewise, that was one of the most disturbing moments, that he would even feel comfortable to talk that way in front of his mother. I would knock the head off of my 23 year old son if he EVER disrespected his elder such as Joe did!

Guaranteed that clown only talked down to women…. Dude is gonna get his face scramble in prison if he talks to any man like that

the amount of contempt he had for others makes me sick, how he thought himself as so much more important and smarter than others. The whole time this case was going on, he was so smug and arrogant.

Sounds like she never loved him but was scamming him for her true love interest in China? I feel for child.

Zero remorse and zero moral.

It makes me sick to my stomach thinking about that baby being raised by that woman that raised that monster. The baby should be with the Chinese grandparents. The Chinese grandma never got her traditional 100 days with her its so sad

I can't imagine losing my only child and only being able to see my only grandchild a few months of the year. And the other months of the year, she is being raised by the mother of my daughter's murderer. I wish the courts gave Mengqi's parents sole custody, but if its the same court system that only gave that monster 28 years....sole custody probably wasn't an option. And god yes the 100 days custom, they should be able to make up for the lost days by taking care of her for the rest of her life.

Absolutely she should have, so called judges are disgusting and evil.

@@furball192 I know, how horrible for the Grandparents in China, they deserve to have full custody of their Grandaughter!

But this shouldn’t be news to the Asian community….especially women.

Then you can stay in china

Totally I feel so sick about the outcome

In February 2022 he pleaded guilty to child abuse, child endangerment and domestic violence. He received and additional 10 years - to be served consecutively! He was 26 when sentenced, +28 + 10 = 64 years old. Sleep well.

The issue is that the maternal grandparents are in China not in US. Otherwise, that would not have been a problem. It is so unfortunate that it is the way it is.

@@RLU-wt8vi 50000 DOLLARS PER YEAR TO KEEP HIM ALIVE TIMES 32 YEARS = ALMOST 2 MILLION DOLLARS FROM OUR TAXES...SLEEP WELL

I believe a lot of that is due to Chinese law. This child is not a citizen, therefore legally it's not an option in this scenario.

And how do you know how she raised him? Plenty of murders were "raised right" in loving homes, and they still ended up being terrible human beings.

@@lisa8351in the “mediation” recordings, his mother heard him threatening both his wife and his mother in law and sounded completely unfazed. I don’t know how a parent could just be neutral listening to their adult child abuse their spouse, especially if they hadn’t raised them to behave that way.

​@@waynepolo6193this. Joe wishes he was a smooth talking psychopath.

@@waynepolo6193 Interesting. Of course no one who only watched this show could diagnose this scumbag, but I was wondering what made you lean malignant narc over psychopath?

@@touchofdumb Well, take for example his absolute loathing at Meng-Qi's mom's presence, as well as at them speaking "privately" in Mandarin. Narcissists are deeply fragile people and, in their minds, if you aren't praising them, you're criticizing them. I expect he truly was paranoid that they were insulting him behind his back. He also would have hated her having any kind of outside support system. Narcissists, paradoxically, need external supply/validation, while knowing that they would be judged negatively for the ways they go about getting and sustaining it. That's why isolation is the first step in the abuser's playbook: they're afraid of their victims ever figuring out that they can do better. Psychopaths, on the other hand, don't actually need what's called Narcissistic Supply in their day-to-day lives. Their interpersonal manipulation is purely for their own entertainment. They do it because they can, not because they need to. Casey Anthony might be a good example. Narcissists are in a constant battle against their own inner shame. They lie to avoid having to feel it. Someone like Casey Anthony is simply incapable of feeling it at all. There is no shame, no empathy, and no remorse in her actions. She lies and manipulates purely to continue on doing whatever she feels she should be allowed to do.

Of course she's making sure the daughter has contact with him. They're probably at the prison on visitation day every time! Ugh! Makes me sick that the mothers parents did not get custody of the baby because "they fear for the child's safety if it moves back to china"! A billion ppl live safely in China. She is Chinese and her mother and grandparents are Chinese she should be with her people. Not the parents of her mothers murderer. Imagine living with those ppl.

so true and also his eyes are so creepy+one can see the crazy in them

yes he reminds me of a sociopath like Chris Watts

You would figure they already raised one murderer,why should they get another chance to raise another baby.

@@Elaine-br4lw exactly!

I’m also an immigrant on F1. My story resonates with hers so much. When the narrator said her Visa was about to expire and she got married within 2 weeks. I totally understood her anxiety and desperation. I know that marriage visas eliminate a lot of our immigration problems but I just ask God for discernment. To know who’s meant to be in our lives. That man was so manipulative. To dangle the ‘deportation’ word like that

​@@pascalemwavaga9583there really needs to be more protection for immigrants (especially women) in these marriages. They are so at risk.

Yes! This 100%

Yes, food vibes. That mother listened to her son being hateful and disrespectful and said nothing to him about it. If he had been my son, you can bet I'd be coming down on him, but then again, I would have beat that out of him years before! No doubt Joe learned that violence and disrespect at home, and the mother was treated the same way.

The child is an American citizen. If Mengqi's parents want to fight for full custody, move to the US.

@@barbarapaige Physical punishment is abuse. You think that is better than lack of response/failure to address a problem?

@@MrCityslickerktm US citizens or not, his mom is NOT the only option! A murderer's parent who had proof of enabling such violent nature, should NOT be qualified to raise another child, even her own!

Dont step him on china, if he can give him a four fingers only in one hand.

Yes!! Please,' Justice needs REMOVE the baby from her.

My ex husband tried to deported me during divorce to find out that I became US citizen without anyone approval. I had a green card for many years and he didn’t want me to apply. You should see his face when he couldn’t do nothing to me .

@mariapilarme I'm glad you were able to get away from him, no one deserves to have their nationality used against them. Thank you for staying strong 💪

As a European who’s married to an American I remember when I first moved to the States they gave me all these information on how to apply for help and support in case of abuse in the relationship. The Custom officer told me there’s many case of broken relationships which ends up in domestic violence so I had so many contacts of agencies available to help women. I wish she knew what her rights where even as a none citizen! Of course I knew my husband wasn’t like that as we have been together for 12 years before I decided to move to the US with him but it was comforting know I had resources available to me incase I ever needed as I had no family or friends there.

@@mariapilarmeOh wow that's messed up sorry you went through that 🫤 I'm a born American and so is my dad but my mom isn't (she's from Austria a country near Germany) and even though my parent's marriage before they divorced was a toxic and unhappy one before my mom got her American citizenship my dad NEVER threatened my mom with deportation the thought never even crossed his mind. Not only is it morally wrong but my dad's side immigrated to America not too long ago too and not unless a person is full Native American everyone in America is either an immigrant or a descendant of immigrants so the logic behind bashing other immigrants makes no sense to me 🤷🏻‍♀️

I was also on the process of getting a green card with my ex, and let me tell ya. It didn’t matter what I did, or how much I forgave and got over his cheating, he would always threaten with divorce because he knew it would wreck my status. I was also the one with a steady job and career at the time. Men who have nothing like to use what ever little power they have to control a woman.

One thing I will say is that immigrant parents are desperate to get their children to a better life. She went MISSOURI university of all places just because it was in the US. Her parents most likely don’t want their grand daughter to have to grow up in china.

There are different ways to do it. Defense attorneys can do their jobs competently by raising doubt and questioning the sufficiency of the evidence, but they don’t have to smugly parrot every transparent line of BS their client says. In fact, they’re not supposed to. Defense attorneys aren’t the worst. Defense attorneys like THIS one are the worst. He needs to get off his high horse and stop blowing smoke.

Agreed! But regardless even murders have rights

You may think that, because of the job they have to do. I'm a former paralegal, and the defense attorneys I worked with (and had to hire one once) were among the most decent guys in the legal profession. Every citizen in the U.S. is entitled to a vigorous defense, and if you or I were wrongly accused/convicted of a crime, we'd be entitled to the best legal representation there is. While we may hate what they do, it's there for us too. (Also, it's no secret that the suicide rate in this profession is disturbingly high.)

Defense attorneys are such a necessity no matter how much you dislike their purpose. We all know that many individuals are falsely accused and ultimately tried for crimes they did not commit. If not for the defense, who is supposed to bring light to the truth? They must go through the process, all while understanding that many of their clients are guilty. They are also well aware that many are innocent, too. This unfortunate scenario is the reason you will see prosecutors step to the "dark side" and change their entire purpose. They've had to try cases where defendants were completely innocent. Vice versa, this also occurs. The undeniable truth in this is that both positions are a necessity in society.

What happened to the old adage doctors & lawyers should not be lied to! So, evidently, lawyers who defend the guilty know they're guilty. Treacherous liars!

Amen! 😢Mengchi was a tower of power! 😅

Exactly what I was thinking and was going to comment the same thing!

​​@@mrscooper1000as soon as he said that, I'm like that's familiar. I will never understand the evilness behind killing someone, it's just sad. The thing in the Shannan case that makes me sick is Chris killed the girls too. 😢😢
