Honestly if I found a person dead, and it was obvious they were dead with the possibility of it being a crime scene , I wouldn’t want to mess up the forensics by touching the body.
Which is why family members touching bodies in a potential crime scene is sus af. Don't give me that "they're family, it's natural to show love" argument, you'd think a family member would want to bring justice to their fallen loved one, instead of destroying vital evidence. *cough* John Ramsey *cough* Ironically, it's a double-edged sword.

I know I am MONTHS late on this, but her fingers not being wrinkled is not a good way to tell how long someone had been in the water. Your fingers wrinkling is an involuntary reaction by the body's autonomic nervous system. People who have nerve damage in their fingers do not get wrinkly when submerged for long periods of time. This has actually been known since the 1930's!
@@krasnodar94 no you dont wrinkle post mortem and in fact depending on water temprature and depth the body can decompose quickly or slowly the study of decomp in water is actually interesting due to a ton of different factors

Omg the first time i heard him say that on a video I literally threw my phone. I have a Great Dane. She had barked and I told her to shut up, and I swear immediately afterward Mike said i hear you barking big dog, and I got scared and threw the phone.😂
He has the best horror channel by far. His subscribers are like a little cult, always commenting things we like about his videos and how he should have more subscribers.
Mike’s switching up his attire I see ... wearing 2 of his shirts (out of his extensive collection of a total of 3ree shirts) at the same time instead of just one at a time ... 🥴 Revolutionary 🤤💀
Shaquail Watkins I think the only reason he hasn’t is cuz he knows the game will officially be killed... while simultaneously being resurrected for him wearing 100% of his closet all at once
It absolutely looked fake. I hope someone questioned that at the trial? The guy probably killed her and he’s a psycho but fake evidence won’t help matters....
sandra g that was my first thought too. I know of four grand was like pocket change to me, I’d spend it to screw my cheating millionaire husband in the divorce.
All these rich guys ever heard of a prenuptial agreement instead off killing their old ladys to keep everything they worked for they can just get the divorce and go on with life
Charlie Goin people are so weird too. Over done stroller? Start filming! They probably thought it was Beyoncé’s kid with a tall, beautiful nanny. Seriously, why were people following her in the city?
I hope one day parents will realize that all babies start out beautiful and mentally healthy. If they end up mentally ugly, the parents need only look in the mirror.
I'm thinking, Madagascar (where she's from) is one of the world's poorest countries. Maybe in her own, dysfunctional but genuine, way she was trying to give her daughter everything she felt she never had. I think she did the best she could with what she had, even though I agree with you that it's not the best by any measure.
I can't fault the handyman, I would not have gone in after her either. The anxiety and disorientation of finding a body would make it very dangerous to dive in deep water and attempt to lift a body out. I'm not a strong swimmer, I'd be hyperventilating, and I'm sure as heck not about to join her at the bottom for a tea party.
And he's a black man working what we can assume is a barley over minimum wage job in a wealthy neighborhood. There was the added stress that the police would pin it on him in a heartbeat

I have been binge watching your videos lately. You do a great job. I’m a 50 year old mom to 5 married kids and grandmother to 12 in Seattle area. I am really into learning about the cases you cover. Thanks for your contribution to this platform!!!
Of course she didn’t deserve what happened to her, but I’m always amused when a woman who involves herself with a married man is “devastated” when he has an affair. Stop it, honey. You knew what he was. If he’ll cheat WITH you, he’ll cheat ON you. Don’t act surprised.
Taco - Some women for sure. I ditched a friend once because she was knowingly sleeping with a married man and constantly badgering him to leave his wife and kids. No. I was out. I don’t associate with trash.
He totally did it. I have seen a lot more of the details of this case. He did several tv interviews, and they even had video footage from the night of the murder of them having an argument while driving into the gated community they lived in. He is classic narcissist.
@@legally_ellecee you can think that, the but person you’re replying to is absolutely correct. I mean a neighbor with zero motive to lie literally testified to seeing a woman matching Samira’s exact description being outside the house at 10:30 AM. The state’s own medical examiner discredited the jailhouse snitch’s story, by saying the injuries to Samira were not consistent with those inflicted by that golf club. These things alone provide reasonable doubt. If you disagree, then you don’t have a clear comprehension of what reasonable doubt means.
My poor patients have lost their foot doctor! My rich sensibilities have been offended by terrible cuisine and lack of turn-down services at the county jail!
The neighbor was clearly mistaken as to the time/date they saw a lady outside the house. Likely they saw her a day earlier - on Friday morning or Friday afternoon - and got confused. Eye witness testimony is very unreliable.
I've never heard of that deal before - dropping the death penalty in exchange for being tried by a jury that's half the size of a normal jury. That's strange.
And who on earth was directing her videos and came to the conclusions that "this is a great promo let's go with this it's perfect and not at all fist bitingly so cringeworthy it makes people's teeth itch"
“ I hear you barkin big dog...” Still my favorite line ever. And yes, I stole this phrase. Thanks mike! Not only for the cool videos but the awesome content and great lines. Lol
Fingers only prune when you are alive. It is a nerve response to water, and doesn't occur when you have nerve damage, or your nerves don't work because you are dead.
Love your work Mike! And humour is always at he appropriate times!

@@ca2955 Did they not teach you comprehensive reading in school? He said "less tragic" That doesn't mean he said it's ok. Stop being so emotionally charged over someone's observations.
I think he hit her with something in the head during a fight they were having, then grabbed the kids and left. I think when she was hit, she was knocked out and when she came through, she was stumbling around and fell in the pool and drowned. Thus why she was seen after he left, and was barely in the pool before she was found.
"Love at first sight...apparently." As my Mum would say, "There's no accounting for taste." But, for some people shiny things are enough of an incentive to let go of any standards you may have had.
"Why she would've bought that, I have no idea." The divorce proceedings. With that tape, she wins 100% without a shadow of a doubt. With that tape, you could find a unicorn and the pot of gold AND win 58,000 different lotteries before he had any chance of winning the divorce case.
Derek McCumber I have too, can run a series of symptoms, can’t speak kindly to anyone because the human element escapes them. Still, doesn’t mean he’s incompetent to stand trial. Bi-polar? Sure. Sociopath? Sure. But not incompetent if he’s a doctor. I wonder how the Medicare fraud finished.
You’re the best Mike. After watching your videos I always exclaim aloud to no one, “I love him” lol I do. Not in a creepy way, just think you and your videos are great. The content is obviously tragic, but the way you present it is just great. God love the Irish!
Came across your channel by "accident" and I'm hooked! 😻 Been binge watching your videos all day yesterday and happy I still got loads to go through. 👍🏼
When you soak in water, your nervous system sends a message to your blood vessels to shrink. Your body responds by sending blood away from the area, and the loss of blood volume makes your vessels thinner. The skin folds in over them, and this causes wrinkles... if your dead, there's no signal able to be sent lmfao
Not the first person who wanted their soon to be ex dead. Nothing about his story adds up, he’s so guilty. Thanks Mike, these videos of yours really are the best thing about TH-cam right now!
I have spent my career in healthcare - can someone explain to me how a Podiatrist got this wealthy and no one noticed? Of course there was insurance fraud......
Iv been a nurse 20 years and podiatrist make great money , for doctors they have limited liability . They have low insurance and fewer employees in general.
Are you serious? It's a specialist! If you have an HMO have you ever tried to get an appointment with a podiatrist? Took me almost 8 months and I work in healthcare! Very, very high demand for this specialty
I do not blame the pool guy/groundskeeper/whomever AT ALL for not taking her out of the pool. In fact, Mike's reaction to this is slightly offensive. You try being a black man in America and touch a rich lady's corpse. That is a nope to infinity!

Lol, that was very traumatizing 🤣😂
I have stumbled across one of your vids a few days ago and been hooked ever since. Love how you literally start from beginning and complete to the very end. Your sense of humor about the bullshit that flys around the story is awesome . Absolutely love your accent . Please don't ever stop.
"I hear ya barkin', big dog." Mike is quietly comical and I like it.
Yep. That’s what originally drew me to his videos. Great style and comical without disrespecting the victims. Keep up the great work Mike. 👊🏻🎃
Omg the first time i heard him say that on a video I literally threw my phone. I have a Great Dane. She had barked and I told her to shut up, and I swear immediately afterward Mike said i hear you barking big dog, and I got scared and threw the phone.😂
He has the best horror channel by far. His subscribers are like a little cult, always commenting things we like about his videos and how he should have more subscribers.
Not always quietly..." SNIP SNIP NICKY "
You are single handedly saving my quarantine shifts my dude. Cheers
Mike’s switching up his attire I see ... wearing 2 of his shirts (out of his extensive collection of a total of 3ree shirts) at the same time instead of just one at a time ... 🥴
Revolutionary 🤤💀
Victor Gonzalez Wait till he puts that “floating head” sweater on top of these two shirts....
Shaquail Watkins I think the only reason he hasn’t is cuz he knows the game will officially be killed... while simultaneously being resurrected for him wearing 100% of his closet all at once
Mike could be wearing a trash can liner and I would still love him.

That pic he took, is smeared blue marker. Blackened eyes don’t look that way .

"Adam was.........well, a piece of shit." I love how concise and to the point you are, Mike!!!
You wondered why she would buy the 'sex tape'-my thought is, ammunition in the divorce proceedings, probably.
Great job as always, Mike!
True, I imagine $4000 is nothing compared to what she is spending on a divorce lawyer.
sandra g that was my first thought too. I know of four grand was like pocket change to me, I’d spend it to screw my cheating millionaire husband in the divorce.
BINGO, I was thinking the same thing 😉😉😉
@Sara Allison unless they had a prenup.
Probably as proof or evidence. Maybe she didn’t want to believe he was having affairs and wanted proof....
All these rich guys ever heard of a prenuptial agreement instead off killing their old ladys to keep everything they worked for they can just get the divorce and go on with life
This one didn’t really work for it. He was a con artist with an insurance fraud as his primary occupation.

Yea it's funny but at the same time...parents are always going to feel like their baby is the cutest/best.
They pay people to follow them
I hope one day parents will realize that all babies start out beautiful and mentally healthy. If they end up mentally ugly, the parents need only look in the mirror.
Nothing like foisting fame onto your kid at such a young age. Child stars always turn out super well-adjusted, right?

I'm thinking, Madagascar (where she's from) is one of the world's poorest countries. Maybe in her own, dysfunctional but genuine, way she was trying to give her daughter everything she felt she never had. I think she did the best she could with what she had, even though I agree with you that it's not the best by any measure.
The lack of fame didn’t help their murderous father either
I can't fault the handyman, I would not have gone in after her either. The anxiety and disorientation of finding a body would make it very dangerous to dive in deep water and attempt to lift a body out. I'm not a strong swimmer, I'd be hyperventilating, and I'm sure as heck not about to join her at the bottom for a tea party.

I have been binge watching your videos lately. You do a great job. I’m a 50 year old mom to 5 married kids and grandmother to 12 in Seattle area. I am really into learning about the cases you cover. Thanks for your contribution to this platform!!!
@Michelle Vesely hey thank u!! We just found out number 13 is on her way!!!
You must have got married very young
Sup?
Yea I love Mikes videos too... FYI he post on Tuesday and Fridays
Mike, go for it, man.😏
Of course she didn’t deserve what happened to her, but I’m always amused when a woman who involves herself with a married man is “devastated” when he has an affair. Stop it, honey. You knew what he was. If he’ll cheat WITH you, he’ll cheat ON you. Don’t act surprised.
That's women for you
Taco - Some women for sure. I ditched a friend once because she was knowingly sleeping with a married man and constantly badgering him to leave his wife and kids. No. I was out. I don’t associate with trash.
Kevin hart^
At no point did he say whether or not she knew he was married...
Granola Bars - Give me a break... 🙄
He totally did it. I have seen a lot more of the details of this case. He did several tv interviews, and they even had video footage from the night of the murder of them having an argument while driving into the gated community they lived in. He is classic narcissist.
He might be a total pos , no argument from me . But there are enough questions and reasonable doubt to question if he did it.
@@robertlawrence4719 nah he is where he belongs
So was she.
@@legally_ellecee you can think that, the but person you’re replying to is absolutely correct. I mean a neighbor with zero motive to lie literally testified to seeing a woman matching Samira’s exact description being outside the house at 10:30 AM.
The state’s own medical examiner discredited the jailhouse snitch’s story, by saying the injuries to Samira were not consistent with those inflicted by that golf club.
These things alone provide reasonable doubt. If you disagree, then you don’t have a clear comprehension of what reasonable doubt means.
And we all forget that two small children have now lost both their parents, thats the saddest thing of all.
They both look crazy af tho
Not the judge or jury's fault.
Only the fault of the one who ripped it all away.
Wrong - all of us have not forgotten. They lost one parent and an abusive father of less than stable mental capacity.
My poor patients have lost their foot doctor! My rich sensibilities have been offended by terrible cuisine and lack of turn-down services at the county jail!
@Jake Yes, but the semen was found in her stomach. This marriage wasn't a complete waste of time and money.
@Jake No, he was blamed because he did it.
The neighbor was clearly mistaken as to the time/date they saw a lady outside the house. Likely they saw her a day earlier - on Friday morning or Friday afternoon - and got confused. Eye witness testimony is very unreliable.
You seen it so matter of fact like maybe you were there
I've never heard of that deal before - dropping the death penalty in exchange for being tried by a jury that's half the size of a normal jury. That's strange.
Same!

Fingers only prune when you are alive. It is a nerve response to water, and doesn't occur when you have nerve damage, or your nerves don't work because you are dead.
thats true maybe if you dead for a few days but not in that short time frame.
nerves still respond for a while after death. watch someone cut fresh gator meat & watch it jump around.

Just makes her death less tragic
@@richardd6016 that's kind of a fucked up comment...she participated in something dumb and silly but harmless so her murder is more ok?

What a shame. RIP Samira🕊. I hope for the best for those sweet lil girls💕.
I think he hit her with something in the head during a fight they were having, then grabbed the kids and left. I think when she was hit, she was knocked out and when she came through, she was stumbling around and fell in the pool and drowned. Thus why she was seen after he left, and was barely in the pool before she was found.
That's interesting... I like that theory!
I think he knew the lady who said she saw her after he left. Who knows though..
Definitely possiblity.
and he thought she was dead already. He could come clean and tried with involuntary manslaughter or self defence.
🤔 That's a good theory!
I think he was found guilty just because of the sky blue suit and the lemon tie he wore to court.
He's awaiting trial for his fashion crimes.
@@beanacomputer 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That was hideous wasn't it?
You need to see the decor at golden eagle to understand his suit
Lemon tie? You can just say “yellow” bro.
"Love at first sight...apparently." As my Mum would say, "There's no accounting for taste." But, for some people shiny things are enough of an incentive to let go of any standards you may have had.

"Why she would've bought that, I have no idea."

yup and she bought it with HIS money LOL
Not in a no fault state.
@EmperorJuliusCaesar I know. OP stated with tape they would get 100%, hence the comment.
Not in NY or any other “No fault” state. No one gives an eff about an affair unless marital waste is incurred
Maybe she wanted proof for personal reasons too. It’s very hard to find out your loved one is cheating...and they lie so convincingly about it...
Warning: You may want to skip over Samiras music.

Derek McCumber I have too, can run a series of symptoms, can’t speak kindly to anyone because the human element escapes them. Still, doesn’t mean he’s incompetent to stand trial. Bi-polar? Sure. Sociopath? Sure. But not incompetent if he’s a doctor.

When you soak in water, your nervous system sends a message to your blood vessels to shrink. Your body responds by sending blood away from the area, and the loss of blood volume makes your vessels thinner. The skin folds in over them, and this causes wrinkles... if your dead, there's no signal able to be sent lmfao
That's why the went so hard on that. He claimed she was alive when she "fell in" but if that were the case, her fingers would prune. Duh.

I have spent my career in healthcare - can someone explain to me how a Podiatrist got this wealthy and no one noticed? Of course there was insurance fraud......
Iv been a nurse 20 years and podiatrist make great money , for doctors they have limited liability . They have low insurance and fewer employees in general.
Depending on where in FL his practice was he couldve made as much as 520K a year.
Yeah podiatrist make plenty of money.
blaLaLa
Absolutely they make great money
Are you serious?
It's a specialist! If you have an HMO have you ever tried to get an appointment with a podiatrist? Took me almost 8 months and I work in healthcare! Very, very high demand for this specialty
I do not blame the pool guy/groundskeeper/whomever AT ALL for not taking her out of the pool. In fact, Mike's reaction to this is slightly offensive. You try being a black man in America and touch a rich lady's corpse. That is a nope to infinity!
