Not only that, but if they only met twice, how would Ryan know this? Ryan claims the victim was awkward but also claims he made inappropriate remarks to the sister. That sounds pretty bold. I’ve met a ton of awkward people and they never said anything inappropriate enough to someone they just met to get such a visceral reaction as to fire them immediately.
Ryan’s upset that police deprived him of spending time with his family at their funeral when he literally deprived them of their life. Sure buddy… RIP to the family & Vito.
Emily was a classmate of mine at Auburn’s College of Veterinary Medicine. This was such a tragedy. They hold an annual charity 5K to fund a scholarship named in her memory.

"This guy he was....he, he, he...he was awkward at best he didn't make a very good presentation of himself...he came off..he had a vibe that would make old people uneasy." as the murderer drones on awkwardly about his fall guy
Clearly Ryan is NOT exactly what I’d call intelligent. Why would he go on the news saying he barely knew the dude, when he had known him for years and been seen out in the community with him at restaurants and shite?
The minute you said he had duct tape on his wrists when he went across the street I knew it was him. It would take 2 seconds to get it off if you were in fact a victim, and with the horror you just experienced the thought "I need to preserve the tape on my wrists to prove to the cops I was restrained" probably wouldn't cross your mind. He wanted it to be present when his aunt/the cops arrived because his victimization was a crucial component of his claim to innocence.

When she said “I’ll be there for Ryan no matter what” and then it flashes to her being led to court in an orange jumpsuit and chains had me dying! It caught me off guard I couldn’t stop laughing 😂😂😂
I graduated with Emily, that girl had a dream since she was in kindergarten and she lived it. Ryan was 5 years ahead of me, but we ended up in a pretty vast and eclectic group of friends. Our interests included Wrestling PPV parties and a game we called "Manhunt" which was essentially hide-n-seek in the dark with kendo swords. Ryan was always weird, but our group of friends was littered with weirdos from all socioeconomic backgrounds. He never had much run-in with the law aside from speeding tickets and reckless driving. I know he liked to shoplift occasionally but he never was caught. He used to have a green Ford Ranger that can't believe lasted as long as it did, I remember seeing my life flash before my eyes a few times riding with him. Ryan and a roommate rented the place across the road from his parents farm. I remember you couldn't see the floor in his room. It was covered with pizza boxes, pornography, and empty Harley Davidson brand cigarette packs. Soda cans were thrown into the driveway, then ran over for recycling. We used to spend days watching Kung-Fu movies, playing Final Fantasy 7. He was a compulsive liar, but you had to be on your toes because occasionally he would tell some sensational yarn that turned out to be true. I had a falling out with that group of friends and didn't see Ryan for over a decade until all of this had happened. I don't know why he did this. I've heard that he had been using meth, and that coupled with his personality disorders could've put him into a state where he thought he could get away with it. But the Ryan I knew never was a drug user. Emily had dreamed of being a equine veterinarian her entire life. She put in the work, sacrificed her social life, and in the end achieved her dream. It was destroyed in the most horrible way possible.
You must have been so shocked someone you know is a mass murderer. It's hard to believe. I'm so sorry this happened. Poor Emily. So many animals would have benefited from her care as a veterinarian and Vito's child was left w/o a father. (I think Ann looked like a meth addict).
@@isabellind1292 I couldn’t tell if he was but his friend, you could definitely tell she was on drugs. She had meth mouth and had a withered look that’s usually from meth. It sucks because it seems like when living in these areas a lot more people get bored or are unsatisfied with life and drugs are a way to get that excitement they never had which leads to situations like this
@@stansmith2188 Yeah, meth/fentanyl...it's bad all over the place and they're illegal but when you're providing "safe injection sites" like they do in my city and not forcing addicts into facilities to give them a chance to clean up, how compassionate a society are we really?
@@jasonprice5307 Vancouver, BC. 2021 is on track to be the deadliest on record for illicit drug OD deaths (second only to malignant cancer). The Prov. Coroner wants the Govt to provide addicts a safe supply of "clean" illicit drugs which takes the cake if you ask me!🙄🍁
@@SirFeatureCreature Soldiers are not trained in that way....at all. Ask a vet.....instead of talking out of your ass.

it rly is.. and we have multiple dry counties here in this shithole they like to call "Alabama".. my county isn't dry though... far, far from it actually
The bare-faced audacity of saying that hopefully one day he’ll be remembered for more than just the worst thing he ever did is just 🤮 He doesn’t deserve to be remembered at all.
'And then that Queen song played".. Mike you can't do that. You can't drop a line like that right before a serious news report talking to the police. I laughed for 5 minutes all the way through, and these sad people were on, and I was laughing and missed everything being said, and I felt great shame cause I couldn't stop. Nice job lad.
I felt like the aunt wasn’t really buying his story from the get go. Just hearing the 911 call. Murder is always horrible but it is so much worse when the murderer is someone they loved.
Agree, When Ryan Showed up at his Aunt's door asking her to call 911. In The 911 audio you can hear in her voice she doesn't trust her "gut feeling" about the situation or Ryan.
@Rebecca Farrell I knew the entire story was another one of his fabrications but had no idea how bad things were until I go to my family's house and find them. He never told me anyone was shot.
All deadly assault weapons like guns should be banned. Especially from the lower classes who don't understand how to not murder eachother. Tired of these fascist firearms being so accessible.
Yeah… kinda sounded like he wanted to say “not white,” but in a way that’d make everyone ELSE sound racist. Unless Vito skateboarded everywhere while using a smart phone and challenging gender norms, I can't imagine what other “vibe” would make old people “uncomfortable.”
My neighbor locked herself out of her home. So, like a good neighbor I introduced her to our That Chapter family movies. She watched about 4 episodes until this episode dropped. Just like the rest of us That Chaptarians, she just loved our family Patriarch, Mike.
There are two kinds of neighbors in this world. Those who watch that chapter and those who don't know how to find humor in our existence and end up in one of Mike's little " how not to human" weekly stories. Maybe the locksmith will be hot or at least not a stalker. Cheers! (Or jingle?)

I got my husband addicted to your channel and now he has all his coworkers on the North Slope in Alaska addicted as well. They all think you’re hilarious!
EVERYONE should pick this Irish flower. Pick him and frame him and tell all others about him. You did something truly laudable, ma'am; Mike belongs to all of us, shepherding us through the valley of darkness of morbid curiosity.
I feel so sorry for Vito's son. I am sure Ryan felt envious of Emily her success inspired him to murder her and his parents. Vito was framed, poor guy.
My heart absolutely breaks for all the victims, especially Vito's infant son. To have your father taken away from you, and then have the suspect tarnish your father's reputation... that is just pure evil.
25 minutes away from the absolute horror show outside my house. Everything is either flooding, on fire, or viral. Learning about new crimes with Mike is the best afternoon break activity. Stay safe all of you.
I met Ryan in Lexington a couple, maybe 3 years before this happened. A friend of a friend deal. We all hung out and he would make everyone in the car laugh. I always thought I’d know if I met someone with that inside them. But I gotta say he just seemed like another misfit. My heart goes out to those left behind. This kind of thing should never happen and I can’t imagine your pain. I just don’t know what could snap in someone to make them think this is ok.

I live in this town. Saw Joy, Emily & Lindsey the night before it happened at my daughters grandmothers birthday party, as they were very close to them. We were shocked. It has been really hard.
Just curious, but if it's your daughters grandmother, wouldn't it be your mother or your MIL? I just thought it would make more sense to state that, unless you are estranged from that person so just wanted to acknowledged it was your daughters grandmother.😊
Miss you Emily. My heart hurts. This is my favorite channel but not going to lie, totally blindsided by seeing this episode on TH-cam since it hits very close to home. I appreciate you telling the Champion's story.
I know it is personal, but is there anything you want to share about her.....her thoughts about her brother? Anything? Sorry for your loss. What a bright and admirable woman who was going to help so many animals.
@@user-jy3zl2vp4b Emily was such a happy person. When I went on vacation she watched my bitchy ass dog Cali. Cali hated her Weim Skylar. Emily also babysat my skittish cat. Lucia, the cat, accidentally got trapped in my laundry closet and Emily felt soooo bad. I felt bad for Emily (she was horrified) as well as my cat. I still remember feeling more sorry for Emily than Lucia lol. Emily was a wonderful soul who cared deeply for the animals.
@@user-jy3zl2vp4b I didn't know her brother. When news of the murder first broke all of us were so grateful that Ryan survived....until we learned the truth.
I think Vito may have decided to not go through with doing the killing and then Ryan decided to use him as bait so it would look like he did it. I feel for his family as well, he had a small child!
Vito was never actually going to be the shooter, he was always going to be a dead patsy. If the evidence was on the phones it would be in the trial transcript, which is public record.
I do feel sorry for Vito's child. Vito himself don't deserve sympathy for he had chosen to help commit murders of innocent family instead of going to police to stop the murders. He had made wrong deadly decision to be co-murderer to one who has only loyalty towards himself in the end. Vito had 💯 put himself and his own child in this exact situation of losing his own life instead of going to police to prevent these murders as Dad himself and to do right actions in life by his own child. Vito was either going be murdered or face lifetime prison time or execution as co-murderer of crimes committed that would 💯 resulted in his child losing Dad anyways. Vito's child was always going to lose no matter Vito's endings in these murders as co-murderer of murders crime because he had chosen to help in the murders instead of going to police to prevent the murders. Vito didn't have zero concerns nor sympathy towards his own murder victims nor his own child in deliberately choosing be party to murdering crimes. So , Vito doesn't deserve any sympathy for himself since he didn't even considered to give it towards murdered victims nor his own child before murders committed and he did not tried to prevent these murders at any time himself. Vito was no more better than his own co-murderer partner when comes to their murdered victims and to his own child who was going to lose Dad no matter the outcome from being murdered by his co-murderer or by going to lifetime prison time/execution for his co-murderer's premeditated murder crimes even if he had cold feet where innocent family was murdered and he didn't even attempt to stop their murders. Their murdered deaths and his own murdered are 💯 equally as much as responsible, blame and faulted onto Vito too along side Ryan.
Don't you love it when Ryan is asked "A" question and rambles for 5 minutes....ending with "It was confusing, it was all confusing..." Dude, your getting ready to go to the Darwin Awards party 🥳

I admit that I have to skip all ads because I get so excited to hear the whole story,right away.Then I replay the video,and just let it play so I don't feel guilty for skipping ads and taking away from Mikes hard work!
I'm glad they acknowledged the death of Vito at the end. Very big of Ryan and his defense team. Seems like a very dismissive thing to say about somebody that he murdered
i hate how i always get to hoping in these "everyone but me died" stories, that it actually was some random instigator and not a family member. it's always heartbreaking hearing people doing something like this to their family
Watch the one about the woman who was a realtor and everyone thought it was the husband cuz they were having financial issues, he had cheated, there was a big insurance policy. Ends up, it was some randos who thought they could extort her for ransom but were shit at it.

@@ThatChapter Thank you, he was the only family I had left and was very close to him since he raised me as a single parent since I was 8 years old and the rest of the family treated us like black sheep so it was always just us. It's rough but yeah.
I was a senior when this happened and a kid in my class had an uncle who was talking cop in hoptown. (Hopkinsville, right south of Cadiz) he said that Ryan's story was he kicked the gun out of his hand
Mike, you do a fantastic job of reporting. I'm sure many of the stories you cover are emotionally draining - to say the least - but thanks. Your commitment to the truth is what makes your broadcasts stand out. I don't know if you remember Walter Cronkite, but a lot of folks "grew up with him" - that is, watching him on the TV news. When I was done with high school, I went to New York City and got a job in the New York Times building, Times Square. I helped conduct pre-election polls. These polls were weighted to ensure a random number of likely voters were contacted, that they answer all questions without influence, and so forth. Obviously, these were not online polls. Today we know that online surveys purporting to show preference (shopping, political party, this or that brand name) can be hacked. Anyway, I didn't get to meet him BUT Walter Cronkite was alive back then. He might still be. The polls were fair in large part because they were analog, not "cyber" or on the Net. In that same spirit I was tasked with collecting the polling results from Co-op City. -- That was once a lovely, thriving place in NYC, I'm told. (I went at night, by cab.) That's a lot of words, but I mean it: today, in 2024, the truth often gets lost in the rat race; but it is the core essential of journalism. Jenny Westberg, 11/17/24, 9:27 AM Pacific 🌹👍🇺🇸
It's crazy how comfortable you are now, Mike. I remember you starting out and always stumbling at how to do your outros. But, now you have clear confidence in your entire presentation. Just wanted you to know that your growth of personality and character does not go unnoticed.
I know his attorney was just doing her job but it really annoyed me when she was speaking on his behalf at his sentencing. There really isn't anything positive or endearing you can say on behalf of someone who murders their whole family 🤦🏾♀️
Being a defense attorney has got to be the worst job on the planet. They have to hear the real truth - every grisly detail - and then try to find either a loophole or sugarcoat it and say trash like this in front of a judge and jury. Gross.
Mike, you have these videos polished off to a perfect shine. Your familiar openings, music, font, editing, just brilliant and worthy of a Netflix series. Never change a thing! Bravo and subscribed. Keep 'em coming! Hugs from Seattle. :)
It only took him “a good hour” for the incredibly traumatic event of his entire family being murdered in front of him for it to sink in…. Someone should have told him before he did the interview that kind of trauma never sinks in…
Does anyone know what happened to Vito's son? Is he being taken cared of? I like to think Ryan knew Vito had a son if they've known each other for so long, and he STILL murdered the guy?!
It sounds like Ryan convinced the other guy that he’d pay him to help him kill his family but he had a master plan to frame his “friend.” And he would have got away with it too if it wasn’t for those pesky kids!
I agree. I think he left his phone at home to make it seem like he was home if they ping the signal. roomates aid he was acting "off" cuz he was about to kill for money. make money for that kid,,,,
Also he said, "I'm not sure how to feel about all of this yet." WTF DO YOU MEAN YOU DONT KNOW?! Any normal person with empathy wouldve been distraught & extremely angry & bitter their precious entire family was gunned down in front of their eyes! & this dude "doesnt know how hes supposed to feel". Pfft great psychopath response, not having any emotions would make it hard to figure out how you were supposed to feel wouldnt it?
I thought the exact same thing! My father is adopted and grew up in a very different way than he would have if he wasn’t adopted. Now, I have met his birth mother and recognize so many similarities in their character that many of my father’s negative behavioral traits make sense.
I listened to another story where triplets were separated as a study, and they never knew until adulthood. I can try to find it if someone’s interested.

I graduated with Emily, that girl had a dream since she was in kindergarten and she lived it. Ryan was 5 years ahead of me, but we ended up in a pretty vast and eclectic group of friends. Our interests included Wrestling PPV parties and a game we called "Manhunt" which was essentially hide-n-seek in the dark with kendo swords. Ryan was always weird, but our group of friends was littered with weirdos from all socioeconomic backgrounds. He never had much run-in with the law aside from speeding tickets and reckless driving. I know he liked to shoplift occasionally but he never was caught. He used to have a green Ford Ranger that can't believe lasted as long as it did, I remember seeing my life flash before my eyes a few times riding with him. Ryan and a roommate rented the place across the road from his parents farm. I remember you couldn't see the floor in his room. It was covered with pizza boxes, pornography, and empty Harley Davidson brand cigarette packs. Soda cans were thrown into the driveway, then ran over for recycling. We used to spend days watching Kung-Fu movies, playing Final Fantasy 7. He was a compulsive liar, but you had to be on your toes because occasionally he would tell some sensational yarn that turned out to be true. I had a falling out with that group of friends and didn't see Ryan for over a decade until all of this had happened. I don't know why he did this. I've heard that he had been using meth, and that coupled with his personality disorders could've put him into a state where he thought he could get away with it. But the Ryan I knew never was a drug user. Emily had dreamed of being a equine veterinarian her entire life. She put in the work, sacrificed her social life, and in the end achieved her dream. It was destroyed in the most horrible way possible.
You must have been so shocked someone you know is a mass murderer. It's hard to believe. I'm so sorry this happened. Poor Emily. So many animals would have benefited from her care as a veterinarian and Vito's child was left w/o a father. (I think Ann looked like a meth addict).
@@isabellind1292 I couldn’t tell if he was but his friend, you could definitely tell she was on drugs. She had meth mouth and had a withered look that’s usually from meth. It sucks because it seems like when living in these areas a lot more people get bored or are unsatisfied with life and drugs are a way to get that excitement they never had which leads to situations like this

I felt like the aunt wasn’t really buying his story from the get go. Just hearing the 911 call. Murder is always horrible but it is so much worse when the murderer is someone they loved.
Agree, When Ryan Showed up at his Aunt's door asking her to call 911. In The 911 audio you can hear in her voice she doesn't trust her "gut feeling" about the situation or Ryan.
I don’t think the aunt bought it either. I think that’s why she offered up Ryan’s full name, his relation to her and where they both were going.
@Raoul Thomas i didn't even think of that, good catch.

Sounds marvellous! 3 forms of murdering things basically.
Mike uploads so consistently it's incredible. There's so much that go into these videos. What a guy
They really are perfectly presented!
I think Vito may have decided to not go through with doing the killing and then Ryan decided to use him as bait so it would look like he did it. I feel for his family as well, he had a small child!
Vito also knew way too much about the situation for Ryan to let him live.
I agree with @Ismael
Vito was never actually going to be the shooter, he was always going to be a dead patsy. If the evidence was on the phones it would be in the trial transcript, which is public record.
If he knew about it,he should have told the police.
I do feel sorry for Vito's child. Vito himself don't deserve sympathy for he had chosen to help commit murders of innocent family instead of going to police to stop the murders. He had made wrong deadly decision to be co-murderer to one who has only loyalty towards himself in the end. Vito had 💯 put himself and his own child in this exact situation of losing his own life instead of going to police to prevent these murders as Dad himself and to do right actions in life by his own child. Vito was either going be murdered or face lifetime prison time or execution as co-murderer of crimes committed that would 💯 resulted in his child losing Dad anyways. Vito's child was always going to lose no matter Vito's endings in these murders as co-murderer of murders crime because he had chosen to help in the murders instead of going to police to prevent the murders. Vito didn't have zero concerns nor sympathy towards his own murder victims nor his own child in deliberately choosing be party to murdering crimes. So , Vito doesn't deserve any sympathy for himself since he didn't even considered to give it towards murdered victims nor his own child before murders committed and he did not tried to prevent these murders at any time himself. Vito was no more better than his own co-murderer partner when comes to their murdered victims and to his own child who was going to lose Dad no matter the outcome from being murdered by his co-murderer or by going to lifetime prison time/execution for his co-murderer's premeditated murder crimes even if he had cold feet where innocent family was murdered and he didn't even attempt to stop their murders. Their murdered deaths and his own murdered are 💯 equally as much as responsible, blame and faulted onto Vito too along side Ryan.
Don't you love it when Ryan is asked "A" question and rambles for 5 minutes....ending with "It was confusing, it was all confusing..."

Mike, you do a fantastic job of reporting. I'm sure many of the stories you cover are emotionally draining - to say the least - but thanks.
Your commitment to the truth is what makes your broadcasts stand out.
I don't know if you remember Walter Cronkite, but a lot of folks "grew up with him" - that is, watching him on the TV news. When I was done with high school, I went to New York City and got a job in the New York Times building, Times Square. I helped conduct pre-election polls.
These polls were weighted to ensure a random number of likely voters were contacted, that they answer all questions without influence, and so forth. Obviously, these were not online polls. Today we know that online surveys purporting to show preference (shopping, political party, this or that brand name) can be hacked.
Anyway, I didn't get to meet him BUT Walter Cronkite was alive back then. He might still be.
The polls were fair in large part because they were analog, not "cyber" or on the Net. In that same spirit I was tasked with collecting the polling results from Co-op City. -- That was once a lovely, thriving place in NYC, I'm told. (I went at night, by cab.)
That's a lot of words, but I mean it: today, in 2024, the truth often gets lost in the rat race; but it is the core essential of journalism.

It only took him “a good hour” for the incredibly traumatic event of his entire family being murdered in front of him for it to sink in…. Someone should have told him before he did the interview that kind of trauma never sinks in…

That interview with Ryan was one of the strangest interviews I’ve ever seen. Not suspicious at all /s
Does anyone know what happened to Vito's son? Is he being taken cared of?
I like to think Ryan knew Vito had a son if they've known each other for so long, and he STILL murdered the guy?!
I'd imagine he's with a family member. Not like they put babies out with the trash if they're orphaned.
I guess he’d just live with his mother. Vito was married but separated. Lucky the baby still has a mum.
Im amazed that we never run out of stories that are this horrific and i have never heard them before.
As Jordan Peterson may say, malevolence is everywhere and it will surprise you.
It sounds like Ryan convinced the other guy that he’d pay him to help him kill his family but he had a master plan to frame his “friend.” And he would have got away with it too if it wasn’t for those pesky kids!
Makes sense. It would take more than one person to shoot the parents and tie up/kill the sister and the guy, so the guy had to be in on it.

I agree. I think he left his phone at home to make it seem like he was home if they ping the signal. roomates aid he was acting "off" cuz he was about to kill for money. make money for that kid,,,,
Also he said, "I'm not sure how to feel about all of this yet." WTF DO YOU MEAN YOU DONT KNOW?! Any normal person with empathy wouldve been distraught & extremely angry & bitter their precious entire family was gunned down in front of their eyes! & this dude "doesnt know how hes supposed to feel".

This would be an interesting ’nature vs nurture’ study.
I thought the exact same thing! My father is adopted and grew up in a very different way than he would have if he wasn’t adopted. Now, I have met his birth mother and recognize so many similarities in their character that many of my father’s negative behavioral traits make sense.
