I'm surprises people thought Melissa was guilty. To me her emotions and behaviour was genenuine. She was distraught in the interview. Felt bad for her, grieving, traumatized and under suspicion.
I am already a sub of crimetastic, but I just wanted to say that I think it’s awesome that ya’ll share other creators videos.
@@thetruthwillsetyoufree9209I thought for a short time it was Melissa when things didn't add up with the police. But when others were interviewed I quickly changed my mind. Dawn should of been charged with murder. But I guess karma has its own ideas with her passing away at only 50. I am so glad everyone is doing well now.

Gotta admit I really thought Melissa was guilty at first, hearing how calm she was on the police call and then her story didn’t seem right. Goes to show everyone does handle these situations differently. I’m glad she was given custody of Alyssa.
@@kellyjean3973 to be fair to her she was breaking down every 30 seconds on the police call and she became “calm” because she said she was trying not to freak out her daughter (and by calm you could tell it was a very very obvious form of call because it sounded nothing like how she normally talks)
Me too
That’s how I the police knew she didn’t do it
When my son passed I didn’t no what to think
@@user-hy3vu6sq1i 'didn't know'
@user-hy3vu6sq1i Sorry to hear this. Hope you found some peace
When Melissa was being interrogated and the cops were obviously suspecting her but she didn’t seem mad about it and just kept coming up with explanations….i thought for sure she was guilty. And then she ended up being a saint and lucky to be alive. I feel like this goes against everything behavioral specialists think they know about interrogations.
I think she was in chok, and that is why she wasn't mad at them.
Survivel 😊
I think it shows how little "body language" matters as an actual factor. people behave so differently that it's ridiculous to generalize. like, I'm autistic and I would probably answer everything (well, not NOW, cuz I know not to talk to cops, but before I knew that) bc I take things people say at face value. sometimes I don't pick up on the subtext of what someone is saying bc their implying is too subtle
Dawn should have gone to prison for real. Bless Melissa and her family ❤😢

Chok... I think you meant, shock*
To know you’re innocent but know that the facts make you look guilty, terrifying.
Yeah. Thats exactly what I was thinking. That is really scary.
Everyone is guilty until proven innocent
@@RockyTop85bull crap
That has thee most sinking feeling
@@kandieskew2268 nope. it's very true. Just think about public opinion with media and social media these days.
Dmn.. imagine waking up with your significant other dead next to you then getting accused of killing them.
There are several true crime stories that start off like this. This is the first story where it was the truth. The 911 call was confusing too! Crying then talking normal… Then the brother was odd looking and sounding!
@@brittanydiane214yeah I thought for sure it was him as soon as they showed his picture.
@@highjinx6519people like you that judge someone just based off looks scare me, I really hope you’re never called for jury duty. I’ve heard a lot of people online say the opposite thing about attractive or wealthy people, that they couldn’t possibly have murdered someone, bc they have $ or are too attractive to possibly murder. It’s crazy scary how many people think the same thing & judge criminal acts esp murder on how attractive or wealthy or poor or strange/unattractive looking someone is
@@brittanydiane214I thought the same thing. Was convinced she was guilty.
@@honeybee1852Probably because he had that strung out look. 🤷♀️
There is absolute honesty in the pain in Melissa’s voice. When she said she was terrified of being blamed for her husbands death. Hearing her pain made me cry.
I hope she’s doing better in life today
What a fantastic 911 operator. She gets a ton of information from the caller.
Agree. Excellent operator!
Why do they need to interrogate on the call? I‘m not sure what the list of questions are that they are required to ask.
@@Beastiboo 8/5/24 I’m not sure either, but we all know those calls are used against you, if charged (or say something different that doesn’t match 911 call, ppl go into Shock!) now I know why ppl give address & hang up, or ask neighbor to call!
@@Katrina-qs2rl 8/5/24 I think they over step boundaries sometimes, some questions I think they have No business asking. Unless it pertains to safety of person or responders. Use against you, if answer differs and court if charged. She was in Shock! Many ppl are.
@@MAArch-ec7seI'm always amazed by how many people don't understand what a 911 operator does and how much pressure they're under.
This is so sad. I feel sorry for the wife and the little girl.

Was she guilty?
And the little brother! Poor kid was also being accused and he was just in high school!
@@twincherry4958no
I’ve watched this three times and the way she is treated compared to the actual person who did this in the interrogation is sickening
She was laying next to the victim, it was the night of, they thought she was guilty 🤷 the GSR cleared her so they moved on.
I heard about her, and this is terrifying
@@tjmurphy3081 8/5/24 Exactly, and went on to press brother in law, her brother. Sick, but nice as pie to the unfit drunk, mad 😡 she had to pay child support (she lost custody)
@@erikamccarthy1457almost as if someone was murdered and peoples feelings were secondary to finding the truth for the “victim”…. Why is everyone so sensitive
@@David-cb3wjtotally agree. I watched another video where they detained a guy who matched the description, turned out not to be him and everyone freaked out. The guy they were looking for robbed someone. So are we supposed to spare the feelings of someone who MAY be innocent by denying justice to the victim who IS innocent? I asked what if it was them who got robbed, they'd probably be totally ok detaining any and everyone then. You either want the cops to do their job, or you don't. You can't have it both ways, or even halfway. Sometimes investigations are uncomfortable to people, get over it. If you get sent away as an innocent person, ok, definitely have something to complain about but otherwise..? Honestly though, it wouldn't matter if they had been pleasant as punch to the wife here.. there's always that obligatory group of people who hate ALL cops for no reason. If they use appropriate force at all, they're too rough. If they de-escalate the situation, they're too soft. If you're a cop whatsoever, it's ultimately a lose lose situation either way. It's easy to sit in your comfy house watching TH-cam and scrutinizing every move of a job that 99% of commenters probably couldn't even do. Sad reality.
The way she sounded on the phone and in person, to me it looked very real and honest! I’m so glad they got the real person!
Lies
Right! I've had to stay calm for my babies in face of tragedy, listening to her trying to stay calm for her baby girl makes my heart hurt 💔
Rule one. Never talk to the police without a lawyer present. Period.
But she had to talk to the 911 operator.

Thankfully they didn't wrongfully send her away. Like they do so often
How often does it happen?
She's YT she was going to get fair trial
I thought Melissa was innocent the minute I heard her talk about Alyssa and not losing her.
Me too
same here
That detail about how she thought her husband was being sick... her grief... all totally genuine
Yeah at first I was on the fence but her thinking she could be losing that little changed my mind. She sounds like a true mother
@@dawnellafreeman4860That part rly got to me, that sort of innocent reasoning followed by gut-wrenching realization are what nightmares are made of...
Why don’t people lock their doors? We live in a crazy world and it doesn’t make sense to take a minute before bed to make sure your locked up…
Yep I don’t care how safe it is where you live. I Always keep mine locked, Especially when I’m sleeping.
Mine are locked even during the day. Always keep your doors locked, even if you think you live in paradise.
I installed smart locks that automatically lock after 30 seconds. I also have sensors on all windows (if they open or break to trigger an alarm). And, cameras everywhere… i am a single female and live alone and have a crazy ex
@stevenwynn7162 My 2nd apartment I lived in was in a huge complex and I lived on the third floor. One day I just got back from from the bar with some friends and I got out of the elevator on the 2nd floor instead of the third. I walked right into what I thought was my apartment and it took me a few seconds to even realize i was at the wrong apartment. It was a couple just sitting on the couch watching tv and he just said “wrong apartment bro” and I walked out apologizing. It wasn’t until a few months later where me and my girlfriend were eating dinner that someone walked into our apartment. The guy was shitfaced and when I told him to leave it took him a while to comprehend what I was saying or he was trying to be funny but ever since that day I always lock the door when I come home.
Locked doors don't always do the trick.
I 1000 percent thought Melissa did it initially ...to be so calm for the little girl and to have an answer for everything...even the way she was answering and the way the cops were asking ....turns out she was just truly an honest and caring MOTHER to ALYSSA ❤ maintaining her demeanour and pushing her own. Heartache down to protect this babygirl
17:31 get. a. lawyer. guilty? get a lawyer. innocent? get a lawyer.
That’s right
Always
YES
If you're not guilty why do you need a lawyer........ because I'm here!
@debbievalentine6810 police themselves tell their own family to get a lawyer and never speak to the police. If they tell this to their own families y wouldn't we do the same thing. If they know what they do to people during these interrogations are that horrible that their own families should never speak to the police without an attorney present than I'm not speaking to them without an attorney present either. Listen to the advice police give to their own loved ones. They want us to do differently for some reason but tell their loved ones to do the opposite of what they expect from us.
Did I read it right that Melissa adopted Brandi too? What a beautiful heart if true
After the Karen read case, the safest thing for anyone is not speak without a lawyer
Oh after that case I trust NOBODY in the "justice system". What a damn joke.
Long before the Karen Read case! Ask for a lawyer right away! Even if it means YT runs out of interrogation videos.
@@AidaShawJ.D.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Absolutely!! Scary thing, I’ve watched cases where the cops said they focused in on a person BECAUSE they asked for a lawyer! Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
Way before Karen read but yes
this case is a great example of a witness being left unharmed as well as faulty blood spatter and trajectory interpretation.
The despair when she says " i know she's the mom" makes my blood run cold. I knew then she didn't do it. Even if she had a motive to harm him, she wouldn't risk Alyssa returning to her bio mom.
That part! You could hear her whole heart . That's when I knew too...bc before that... It was sounded iffy
This is the most tragic case to listen to! What a strong and beautiful hearted women she is!!
This story was wild. One of the rare occasions where the wife was actually telling the truth.
Spoiler alert! JK

Melissa talks and her emotions seem so genuine. Especially when she talks about her ear ringing. She probably doesn’t realize she temporarily lost her hearing lying so close to her husband when he was shot. She had a blanket covering her and not him so it protected her from spray.
Her pain is heart wrenching to watch. The first time I have ever cried watching an interview on a crime channel.
When she said “it’s the worst feeling thinking you could be blamed for your husbands death” I knew she was innocent by what she said and how she said it.
That plea deal should never have been made. This is bs
Exactly! I would have gone to James and said Dawn is pinning the murder on you and seen what he had to say. That made no sense. She's the mastermind.
I agree. She got away with murder
It’s disgusting that Dawn manipulated a young man to do her dirty work and she gets to walk free
She died at 50 and lived her last years a distraught mess. I think Karma did what prison never could have.

Dawn is so bitter in this interview that she stood out like a sore thumb.
Thats what I thought, the way she speaks so ill of him and he’s deceased is so disrespectful
I’m not agreeing with her AT ALL. but some people deserve hate. If she was innocent and he was just making her out to be awful, then a lot of us would think he was horrific. These cases are so hard because without the kid admitting what happened they may never had found out.
What an angel Melissa is...
Y'all!!!!! I feel BAD!!! Had I been on a jury with the wife on trial SHE WOULD BE IN PRISON!!! THIS IS CRAZY!!! But it goes to show that blood evidence isn't always cut and dried!!! I feel bad for misjudging her. What's real REAL crazy, I saw this one before and I didn't remember anything at all!!
But you believed Donna, the ex wife & James?
He asks the wife why she didn't see something or hear a car drive away. I know, first hand, what it's like to be awakened by gun shot. I was asleep. My adult son was awake in his bedroom. I woke up. I had zero knowledge of why I woke up. I knew something woke me up. But had no clue what it was. My son came to me and told me there was a gun shot just outside our patio doors. About that time, someone knocked real low, on the patio door. And asked for help. Someone was being chased down and shot. And they were shot on our patio. Had my son not been awake, we w look old not have known what was happening. Isn't this common sense? Doesn't everyone understand this? They should.
her cry was heartbreaking, my gut tells me she is innocent🥹
which “her”? just watch the video
????
She (Melissa) is innocent
I mean, the video also tells you she's innocent
I wrote the comment after I watching her being interviewed. Maybe I lite premature comment ☺️ as I watched on I saw that she really was innocent 😇
The way her voice would break at times, on the 911 call but then normalize to try to be calm for the little girl… the thumbnail had me thinking she was guilty but the emotion in her voice really got to me. I’ve been in similar situations and could totally relate to how she sounded on the phone and as well as her body language in the video. Poor woman.
This is pretty normal. I've been there. The dispatcher was on the phone with me for 45 minutes until help arrived. I remember moments of calm that washed over me, then I'd fall apart, then I'd get calm, over and over. It's weird. I think our mind does this to try to distance ourself from the horror of what we witness.
UNBELIEVABLE when DA’d make deals with the person that made the decision to Kill someone! Her ex would be alive if it wasn’t for her!
To b fair, I had someone in my home and NO idea how they got in while me and my children slept! Fortunately he turned and ran when he heard my daughter screaming when she saw him heading for my bedroom.
How they got in? They opened an unlocked door. Lol

Ive seen many bizare cases where people seemed guilty but were totally Innocent!! Detectives need to stop bullying some victims, cant count number of times this sweet lady was interrogated. When the evidence didnt point to Her at all....Seems many detectives want easy confession. Instead of doing the hard work.....its not Her JOB to figure out what happened!! As he implied ....
Lawyer, Lawyer Lawyer... I dont know why on earth people think they HAVE to talk to the cops...
Because they think asking for one makes them look guilty, sadly
You usually get raised with the lore that police are serving and protecting you, that's why you don't think they will frame you. We need to teach children differently.
The lore of men being the knight in shining armour also has to go.
When you have a crazy ex never leave your door unlocked!
Amen! Especially baby daddy or mama drama lol
Don’t leave it unlocked period! There’s plenty of random crazies out there.
Our neighbors sleep with their back door open, so I always worry about them😩
Thank you for all the hard work you put into this video. Top tier! ❤ So sad for everyone involved. I hope Melissa has many grandchildren from her daughters.

This case is Unbelievable...
They had a Walmart video of both of them buying the stuff and gave her immunity??? And missed the diagram left behind 😅suckish investigators
Yeah, they had all this information connecting about her involvement in the murder and they gave her immunity.
IMO Dawn beat the system, seemingly because the cops/DA were too hasty with that immunity agreement
I know we don't see everything here, but what did Dawn really give them that they couldn't have gotten from James?
@@alisong2328 My thoughts exactly. Seems like they bet on the wrong horse
@@alisong2328And James was 21! I'm sure James had a rap sheet on his own, but no one goes from theft to a hit-like murder without someone else's involvement. Dawn orchestrated it all and the cops should have known that.

@@jenerin905
And why was his mother ok with this relationship
I absolutely believe her story. Her baseline eye position and real emotional response indicated to me that she was innocent. And she didn't try to fill in the voids with BS. She knew what she knew and didn't try to make up anything else.
Likewise. Her behaviour seemed natural given the situation
The ex wife was absolutely involved.. Innocent people don’t have conversations about killing someone!
Poor Melissa and her step daughter
Immunity agreement was ridiculous!
They very often are.
I was sleeping when I woke up to hearing Melissa crying inconsolably and immediately asked what has happened to that poor woman because she sounded so real and absolutely desperate.. When I realized she was accused of murdering her husband and father of her stepdaughter I couldn’t wrap my head around that
“I know you’re upset, but you gotta listen a little bit, too.”
I know this dude has a job to do, but damn. That’s brutal.
i read the comments before finishing her 911 call..and no way would i have predicted she WASNT guilty
Cannot even believe the amount of withheld info by the other witnesses!! Could have helped the case way earlier on. Terrible
You'd be surprised how many people have the mentality of "stay out of it, not out business". The small town I live in... Thats how EVERYONE thinks. Even if they see bad stuff happening, "not our business". I hate it and the community labels me a "karen" "troublemaker" because I speak up and voice my concerns.
I know some people would get upset about a date bringing their child, but I think it's absolutely adorable.

With everything behavior specialists claim. The 911 call would be so damning against her if she was guilty. Now that we know she's not, it's so strange to see how she responded to all of it. She tried to stay calm for her daughter.
Think about all the people wasting their lives in Prison because they were wrongly accused and convicted of a murder. Probably quite a few

She says she witnessed it. It sounds like with Dawn, Ben was also a pill popping drunk. Somehow with Melissa he was just a better man. Weird really
@Plutonium.2 alcohol makes people violent. And people do STOP drinking ya know
I remember the first time I heard that 911 call, my gut was telling me she was involved with her husband's murder. Even knowing the story, I still get ick vibes listening to it now. She knew someone shot her husband without seeing the person. Very weird indeed. The cops are going to try to pin it on the spouse almost every time. Never talk to them without an attorney, even if you are innocent. This case could have turned out very differently without the one minor break toward the real killer. Lots of guilty people are walking free and innocent people rotting in jail because the cops will try whoever they think is guilty with no real evidence if the DA allows it.

Dawns up to her neck in this. It’s so amazing how people forget that the police do this crap all the time. Throw away the key…..Next !
*throw the key away.
* throw the key in the trash
Poor Melissa, she did all the right things except not getting a lawyer right away. She stayed calm for her kids but it backfired into making the cops think she was cold hearted or something. Her immediate concern was for Alyssa even though shes not her biological mom, I think that may have shown the detectives that she didn't do this because people who take revenge by taking the life of the other parent of their child don't actually care for their child.
That poor little girl..... and her beautiful caring mother who chose to be her mother and who Alyssa chose to be her mama......so incredibly sad!
wow the detective solved this on the first couple days and they played games and lied for two years... jeez
Omg Dawn is such a liar.
