You know on all my years I never realized that peoe with challenges get on dating sites just like everyone else 🫢 I'm worried now, for these vulnerable young ladies😞
If you listen to the messages from her, you wouldnt be so soft on her. This might seem like a strange question, im not american, alot, if not all, of these friends, acquaintances and others seem to be a bit mentally challenged? I find this very strange because they are not all from Cedar rapids. Even if they were, what are the chances? Or am i misjudging something?
It makes me so angry that people take advantage of other that are young, vulnerable, insecure. When I watched her testify, in the beginning I had tears in my eyes…
Most young people these days are not used to speaking face to face of having real conversations because they do most of there speaking by text. They are all constantly on their phones these days.
They were vulnerable and just wanted to be loved 😔so sad for these young helpless ladies. I hope they have family who intervene and safe them from these monsters !
I've never seen a witness look at a defendant so much. Either she hates him or still loves him. Either way he used these women and preyed upon women with disabilities.
Everyone in this case seems to be intellectually challenged in some way. It’s just tragic . There won’t be any winners here. It reminds me of the play”of mice and men “ . The big question is,how do we deal with people like this? . All these years later we still don’t have an answer. It’s just really sad unfortunately.
I wonder where this lady's family is daily. I understand she has an apartment and possibly a job. But I wonder- if she was my daughter, would I want her to be dating? She will need mentoring in any relationship, whether casual or marriage. If she has kids, she will need assistance and mentoring. ❤
Somebody please review the Iowa public school system. All of these kids show poor developmental skills. This is an important witness. She literally told him "me or her" and he took that literally apparently. Poor Melody, she didn't deserve this. Praying for the family's peace.
Pattern of using vulnerable young women wanting boyfriends and attention. The other female witness who had the other perpetrator confess to her was also very vulnerable - - letting a person into her house and into her private room because 'He Declared He Needed to Talk " . She wasn't even close with him - - These young women are so conditioned to accept contact with anyone that wants it -- she is Lucky She Didn't Get Sucked Into the Bad Motivations of the Defendant and His Accomplice.
no disrespect intended but this young woman seems and acts like a 12 year old child! it hurts my heart just listening to her try to remember her answers! sad
I 💯 totally agree! And what’s so very sad about this whole situation and murder is that ALL of these witnesses and people involved all seem to have that 12 year old like state of mind. Truly sad. Justice for Melody! 🙏💜💫
Why did this women lower her standards when trying to date a man. You have to search REALLY hard to actually pick this dude & “date” it. Gets pregnant & does not know who might be “father”??
Sadly it’s NOT really hard to do. Men will just say and do whatever to get what they want or need from women. And So many women are NOT secure, and love themselves enough, on their own prior to meeting such evil. A lot of them don’t have a father in their lives, to be shown the correct way to be loved, in the first place. OR The men in their lives, treat them horrifically bad to begin with, and it’s all they have ever known. Then add in, mentally challenged, into the mix, with all of these dang dating apps/sites and BOOM disaster! We need better laws to help, protect and prevent, all these evils in our societies, that pray upon the most vulnerable, and weaker ones. it’s beyond sad and scary out here. BUT it’s happening daily. And only getting worse, by the day.😢
She doesn't seem scared to me. I feel she was embarrassed when the lawyer asked about the defendent not being the father. She looked at him as if she wanted him to be. This case is sad to begin with. Then i heard her say she had a baby... made me more sad and scared for her child ..depending on what age they label her developmentally Seems like a 10 to 12 yr old. I could be wrong bbut i really hope she has support or a guardian for the baby
I don’t think it is so much that she likes him, rather she is extremely nervous testifying. She is challenged and she knows it, so this hard for her and she is doing her best. Very brave. Life has been hard for her. 😢
She is constantly looking at him and staring. It almost as if she is happy giddy to get his attention or see him. But same time she is young. I don’t think she is nervous seeing him at all. I think she is in absolute what she thinks “love” with me. If she was nervous about seeing him she would do long deep stares at him and constantly looking at him. She would try to avoid looking his way I would think. I think she thinks he did this so he could be with her so that makes her happy. She seems very child like. How old is she?
10:30 'he left melody and came back to me' she's Def still in love with this nasty dude. All the glances and the way she's describing everything... I know she's challenged but what if she had more of a part in the plot than we know?? It's wild how some peoples brains work. Maybe she put the idea in McKinleys head. 🤷🏼♀️ One of those 'me or her' type situations that he took too far.. Wouldn't put it past her. Shes already cheating on everybody.
Idk if this girl is sweet... She told the guy "me or her" I think she was the catalyst for his murder plan. He's the one who did it.. But we don't know what happened behind closed doors. Plus the way she looks at him.
@39:18 the witness is asked, "After January, by the time we got into February there were no issues with Melody at that point, correct? Answer, "NO." Did that mean 'not correct' or 'there were no issues'. Sloppy attorney.
@@grneys45, I taught in secondary school for many years. Lots of kids! She probably does have some learning disabilities. I don’t know her current age, but here she does act immaturely. She also seems to have low self esteem, which wouldn’t be unusual.
Watch More McKinley Louisma Court Clips: bit.ly/McKinleyLouismaTrial
Predators seek out the vulnerable prey , she is almost child like 😔.
Yes, very intellectually challenged for sure.
This defendant really took advantage of these challenged women
Sure did! Pregnant with his baby too! Argh..the challenges!❤❤
The entire group seems challenged. The education system in this area needs investigating because they all seem to have trouble with simple English .
@@cathyridley3005duh! She’s mentally challenged 🤦🏽♀️
@@cathyridley3005they might well have other challenges that are on the autism spectrum tbh. ❤
Omg I just realized that. Was he also challenged in some way the courts haven't talked.
These poor Women should have Never been on any Dating sites.Seems like they Could be easily Trafficked.
Yes your honor

Every time she looks over at him she gets more nervous.
She kept looking over at him
This poor girl is really stressed. Please be gentle with her!

This is such a sad sad story. Breaks your heart .
This sickens me. This poor girl is terrified of the defendant and having to be there. Bless her heart 😢
So horrifically limited in any manner of human function.
Most young people these days are not used to speaking face to face of having real conversations because they do most of there speaking by text. They are all constantly on their phones these days.
@@cathyridley3005 Absolutely right, well said.
Who is letting this girl have children.... She obviously cant look after herself let alone a baby.....
I was going to say that but didn’t want people coming for me. 😅
What in the world could they have seen in Him? Attention I guess?!?
I know right he’s vile 🤮🤮🤮🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
BIG BULLY 🦧
They were vulnerable and just wanted to be loved 😔so sad for these young helpless ladies. I hope they have family who intervene and safe them from these monsters !
It’s clear these young women aren’t capable of making rational adult decisions. He knew exactly the type of young women to target.

OMG just got a look at the perpetrator. These challenged women were selected.
Poor victim was slaughtered by an animal.
BOS AS WELL!!!!!!

Exactly!!!
Agreed! I'm not seeing fear when she looks at him. Like you said, either hate or longing. Very odd behavior but this whole case is odd.

She seems still very terrified of him.
Poor girl looks terrified
She couldn't take her eyes off of him. It's like she was hoping he'd look at her.
I wonder where this lady's family is daily. I understand she has an apartment and possibly a job. But I wonder- if she was my daughter, would I want her to be dating? She will need mentoring in any relationship, whether casual or marriage. If she has kids, she will need assistance and mentoring. ❤
SO true. Parents/guardians completely abandoned this poor girl who desperately needed guidance & support!
These women have very low self esteem. Hanging around these losers was never going to turn out well.
This young lady seems terrified
The other young lady was terrified on the stand as well!!
So sad

Omg, the defendant is repulsive!!! Those poor women. 😟
He really went after these challenged women.
He was challenged himself
@@hayalistanbul5418🙄
Sad that a girls worth is reduced to screwing in the back of a truck in a bar parking lot
This makes me sad for all of this guys victims. RIP Melody.💔
Having a machete in your car for "protection" is wild.
Bless Her Heart! What a monster He is!👹
Oh no, so it's probably his kid. 😢

It's disgusting! All the children out there being raised by uneducated trailer people. You know the direction that child's going in.

Romance is a stretch
There's been no romance that's for sure.
I hope Nikia's baby doesn't belong to the defendant.
She’s pregnant smh
Already had the baby
My gosh sweet heart you dodged a bullet! Kiss the floor and pray hard!
What a beautiful young woman . Hope her and the baby girl found peace .
She constantly is looking over at him it makes me sick. 🤢 She definitely shouldn’t have a baby she obviously can’t take care of herself.

They allegedly have a child together

@@deborahcollins5819 Thank you for seeing what I see! She looks terrified NOT in love!!

Sadly, I think she still loves him
She seems complicit. She is lying.
Talk about this girl but don't insult the victim guys please
I wonder was that his baby she was pregnant with.
She can't form a complete sentence?
She’s strange
This girl seems scared to death Maybe even as much as lying for him only a few minutes but She's definitely scared
