First thing I thought when bodies were washed before autopsy… someone is being protected.
Without a doubt.
Has to be doesn't it. Would be absolutely stupid to have done it by accident!
The elite class harbors some very sick and PROTECTED people. The same happens here in the US. Everywhere really.
Definitely agree!!
@Dennis McConnell That's it. Lump them all under one umbrella. Nice critical thinking there..
I really and truly respect the fact that this channel takes the extra time to learn how to pronounce foreign languages and names. I still think this channel deserves way more attention.
Agree.
I don’t know. Those pronunciations were so perfect I have a hard time believing it was achieved with a little extra time. I was thinking Spanish teacher or the like.
I agree.. I eat h all their videos!!! Great content...
YES!!
I fucking _despise_ when channels-especially those asking for donations to Patreon and the like-make excuses and jokes about putting forth zero effort towards properly pronouncing words (especially proper nouns) in their videos.
It's disrespectful, in a way-mostly to the dead of course-but even simply to their viewership.
Genuinely relieved to know I'm not the only one who prioritises this. ;3
Absolutely!
From a 100 year sentence to 16 years (1997-2013)for 3 killings? So frigging lenient!!
I'm Spanish and let me tell you: this is arguably the most famous crime in the country (I was just a baby when this happened and I can't even begin to explain the effect it still has in Spanish society, especially young girls) and we are all ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED the police did such a terrible work because they were protecting some important people.
That's sad. It happens here in America all the time. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of crimes that arevl rightfully solved. However, so many murdered are covered up by corrupt officials.
Pedophiles are in power
holy BALLS!!!and yet in the US that is not uncommon either
That's common in every capitalist country.
@@shadetreader unlike socialist countries where they're fair and honest 🤡
Im from a little place near Alcàsser. I was 8 when this happened and remember vividly the posters, tv interviews, family tears, the search for the girls, the media circus... this event changed the Valencian youth forever.
Thank you for treating so respectfully this case so close to my heart from my homeland.
Gràcies 🙏
😪💔🤬
Jo soc de Picassent i aquest cas seguix sent molt delicat per tot el patiment que van haver de sofrir les families i que hui en dia continua sent un tema delicat.
✌🏻
Who is actually responsible for the their deaths?
I was 14 when this happened. I cried a lot and I was in Madrid, but it was such a tragedy I remember the media circus, and the conspiracy theories. Shame on the media. And shame on the awful police work since the beguining.
Whenever the police screw up a scene really badly I always presume that they have something to do with it
That was my immediate thought at first, but it just turns out to be blundering ineptitude.
Same. Especially washing the corpse... Like wtf!!???
It's good to learn from your mistakes, when I see a cold case that's been solved after 30 or 40 years by DNA it proves that some cops are really lazy and some will excel with common sense and tenacity. Preserving the crime scene is crucial to the families that want justice and it pisses me off to no end when a lazy cop automatically assumes that they are runaways! They left with no money and the clothes on their backs but oh, they ran away, even a six year old will fill a back pack with food and toys!
@@kimberlyhood4095 Yeah. I can see how police from really small towns that don't have a lot of training and don't usually deal with serious crimes, much less murders, might just really fuck up an investigation because they don't know any better.
Right!!!!!
This was the hardest case to listen to. Those men are monsters beyond evil.
I completely agree!!! Savages and demented wastes of oxygen!!!
His original sentence was 'cruel and harsh ' ?? What about what was done to the three innocent and young girls ??
Typical EU hypocrisy
The revolting "liberal" policies in the EU and UK are created by morally bankrupt politicians, based on the ridiculous notion that violent criminals, murderers and repeat offenders could be "redeemable". The weak legal guidelines are representative of vile, wicked politicians, who adore psychopaths and dangerous criminals. The lives of the victims and their families mean nothing to them. Liberals are criminals against civilized society. They are toxic.
Justice system in Europe is a joke.
@@eucliduschaumeau8813 First of all, prison is MEANT to be a rehabilitation program first and foremost, not an expensive coffin for bad people. But for the people who *are* that bad and are unlikely to be rehabilitated, I think we might as well just implement a death penalty in the UK/EU and move on.
Also, it’s hardly just liberals that implemented and have perpetuated these policies lmao. It’s been like this probably since the dawn of modern-day criminal justice policy in the EU. And frankly, there’s hardly a criminal justice system in the world that could function as a decent guide for all the shitty ones out there. Do you intend to do anything about it?
Fck the EU
I have seen the Netflix documentary and it is painful to watch. What these girls must have endured is just horrific to think about. I wish they would have caught all the men. But maybe one day they will. This is what all parents are afraid would happen to their child. I truly feel for the parents. Sending them all my love. RIP to the girls❤
Thanks for covering this case 🥰
I haven’t seen that! Thanks!!
It is called on Netflix The Alcàsser-murders
Soooo, why were three young teens left to get about on their own?
@@scallopohare9431 eh that’s just how things were at the time. parents allowed they’re children and teens to take short trips from home.
I could play outside in the woods behind my house as a teen. Can’t imagine doing that now, even as an adult.
@@scallopohare9431 Yup, depending on the country and time period, these norms differ wildly! F.ex. In 1989-90 I was 14 and had no effective curfew. Even on school nights! But I was aware that I was an outlier and tried to make the best of it 😊
Ok I was about halfway through when the only thing I could think of for the police to inexplicably break protocol and not take pictures before moving the bodies and for having the bodies cleaned prior to autopsy and forensic examination was …. Absolute coverup by the cops … I can’t buy into any other theory
Absolutely agree. I was living there at the time a d the consensus among thinking people was that the Guardia Civil were so inept that it just had to Bea cover-up. So ad that after all these years the truth is still not known and justice has not been served
I agree.... however this is a different country and their protocol back then is not the advanced protocol that is has become now.... so this is also an additional oddness as well.....sadly
Imagine being Scottish and executing such stellar enunciation and pronunciation of various Spanish words/proper nouns. ;)
All jokes aside, I appreciate your dedication to making yet another great video.
It really is apparent how much time and effort you put into these!
What is wrong with you people? How could you know if the pronunciation was that good? Which it wasn't!
@@Nimue333 LOL I could truly ask the same of you.
En lo personal, amo cuando gente de habla inglesa trata de pronunciar nombres en español
@@charliethecockatoo2159Right? For some reason, D Belle is really bothered by the fact that people are impressed with the narrator's grasp of the Spanish language.
@@wingolamo Weird shit, almost like they're trying to gatekeep an entire language. 😅
So sad. That photo of the father was heartbreaking 😢
There is a three part documentary in Netflix about this. As it was portrayed, the father turned the media circus into a money making machine for himself.
@@freedomfirst5557 I'm sorry to hear that.
Poor girls and families 😔💐💐💐
Pure evil. That's all that comes to mind of these monsters that did this to three innocent young women, who had their whole life ahead of them. RIP. xx
I thought this one was already covered. May have been a different channel. The fact they let this monster out of prison so early is insane. This is right up there in cruelty with America's/Oklahoma's Girl Scout Murders. Absolutely inhuman, cowardly acts.
I believe it was covered on here
Yeah I was almost certain this is a repost, maybe to add advertising?
I believe meguiel is innocent. He was tortured and constantly changed his confession to match updates conviently
Scapegoat for sure
The absurd part of the autopsy results is that different parts of the bodies were found in different levels of decomposition.
I read the autopsy report and it says that:
1) the heads of the girls were separated from the bodies. Each head was in an advanced state of decomposition, it was a bare skull. Each scalp was separated from the skull and they were merged together, so they cannot distinguish them. The jaws were broken and lots of teeth were missing
2) the rest of the body of the three corpses was in a much better state, the skin was there and they were able to notice lots of haematoma. On Desiree's body a lot of the skin in the back was missing, and both Toni (1st body), and Desirée (2nd body) had a hole in their ribcage. Miriam's ribcage was intact, so they were able to examine the heart
3) Desirée and Miriam's bodies were missing a hand
The questions are many. Why different parts of a cadaver would be decomposed in a different way?
Why the heads were in a much advanced decomposition state than the bodies? What's the reason of the mysterious decomposition of the hands missing? They say "wild animals" ate them, but if the official version says the three cadavers were buried in that pit immediately after the murders, and the bodies were buried one over the other,"wild animals" would have dug up just the first body, and ate it much more than the other two.
It's completely nonsense.
It's clear that someone must have brought the girls to a place were they had ropes and multiple objects they used as weapons to torture those poor souls.
It's obvious for me that they had tortured them and they kept parts of the girl's bodies as a "trophy", as a souvenir. I am 100% convinced that the three skulls are not the original heads. Someone keeps them somewhere, as well as their hands.
It's something so disturbing that it makes me want to scream, but I don't see other logical explanations. A head can't become a skull in two months and a half.
Maybe this advanced decomposition on the heads was caused by the shots fired to it or maybe bc of the weather changes ? we don't know + they don't know the exact date when the girls died or if they died separately of each other there's many questions another note where the heads decapitated by a sharp object as well ? we don't know but since the buried bodies were with clothes on we know the killer(s) guided them somewhere and shots them and maybe removed the hands after the killing since they didn't find any blood around the pit
This case has always interested me. There have been a couple of "developments" this year. Anglés' search has been restarted, and the police have talked to a sailor who allegedly spoke with him in the phone. The Plymouth sailors also identified Anglés as the person who got caught in the boat. Some of them believe that he was helped scaped by someone in there. Unfortunately, the sailors are dead, so we'll probably never know what truly happened inside that boat.
On January Ricart was spotted by the police in a crack house in Madrid. He said he had just gotten off work and was accompanying a friend. He didn't have any drugs on him or was doing anything ilegal so he got let go. I guess he sneaked back into Spain recently?
And lastly, a group of criminologist have asked to analyse the 11 hairs found on the girls' bodies.
It's crazy that it's been so many years since this case got solved and there's still so many things about it to say.
I hope they find dna in those hairs and do familial dna.
Crazy yet fortunate.
Thank you for treating this story with such respect and love.
These girls were so beautiful. So sad. How are indefinite sentences cruel and harsh when these girls final hours were pure torture and fear??? That is such crap.
Your absolutely right. Its sickening
Rest in peace beautiful angels.
Agreed… such a sad occurrence. They were so young so full of life
Yeah agreed that's pathetic!
His sentence was not even NEAR the harsh and cruel sentences the three girls suffered.....I can’t get over this whole botched story. So completely inept and shabbily handled. True justice for the three families will never happen thanx to how awfully this case was treated..... so so sad 😞
@@Mr.EmeraldTheGreen agreed
The police "work" in this case enrages me! Either it was their first day on the job,every single one of them or they were grossly negligent and seriously NEED to be fired! That's what happens when you don't do your job with ANY other job in the world,why isn't it the same for police!!!
This kind of negligent procedure by police forces is very common in my country. And you never get to know for sure if it was stupidity or if it was something more sinister related to politicians and high ranks officers. Im argentinian and im sure spanish police works better than ours.
Here’s the video if anyone hasn’t seen it yet th-cam.com/video/4qMcCXOnEYY/w-d-xo.html
@@joticolitico that's really awful. I mean I know mistakes are made all the time,but it seems in this case and a few others that come to mind it's like the police tried their best to make sure the perp got away....pretty suspicious if you ask me. But what do i know
@@courtneyremarks1133 you are right..and it is suspicious. Washing a body before proper scene investigation and the lack of photo evidence is ridiculous. It smells really really bad.
@@joticolitico yes!!! Exactly I have literally NEVER heard of bodies being washed and especially when there is clear signs of foul play! But I don't think its even "normal" to wash a body before they perform an everyday autopsy 🤦♀️🤦♀️
The way that film crew treated their families once they discovered the girls was awful. Getting them up on stage to get their reaction with mics and cameras shoved in their faces.
They were so in shock they just went along with it.
This channel is such a breath of fresh air! I am a crime doc junkie literally all I watch and I so needed this. You put so much of yourself into this the info you provide is outstanding, I'm on the edge of my seat with all your actual pics, and I am coming across so many stories that are fresh and new!! Thx again, ill be here a while!
I'm so pleased to see just how well the channel has been growing.
Rest in Peace beautiful young ladies.
This story is Heartbreaking.
I don’t believe it was them. Police needed a suspect to cover up their shitty work. Knowing the type of injuries these poor girls endured , it’s more like a cult or making a snuff movie. I totally agree with Maria’s dad.. these idiots were scape goats.
May they Rest In Peace
His "conscience is clear", people like this have no conscience.
Yeah i'm sure that Hitler and his gang, among uncountable others, who have perpetrated such evil, always went to bed at night with a clear conscience.
Exactly 😔
I remember this so well. As a 13 year old girl living in the provinceto the south, my friends and I were petrified but adamant we would still go about our lives. The only 2 people implicated in this triple murder are clearly scapegoats, all who know the intricacies of the case know this and are aware there appeared to be a high level cover-up within the Spanish government. I doubt we will ever know what really happened here. The murdershe protests and indignation that we all felt will always stay with me. I can only hope these girls are at peace. I often think of their families., especially Fernando who worked tirelessly and dove down many rabbit holes in attempts to find out what happened to his daughter and her friends. Descansa en paz chicas
We know at this point that the police covers up a lot of these crimes and they’re accomplices with the monsters
Thank you so much for sharing your time and hardwork ❤
You always present these in a informative and respectful way. I like the way you run your channel. A lot of these I’ve never heard of until you uploaded the video. Thanks 😊
Your pronunciation of all the Spanish words and names were very beautiful! Xoxo
And I just have to quickly add... Every time I've watched a video covering this case, I'm still immensely astounded and appalled by how horribly they processed the crime scene!!! I think that they were just exceedingly LUCKY that they happened to find that piece of paper that was stupidly left by the killers! That peice of paper was the sole evidence that led them to the murderers and so I believe that if they hadn't happened to find that peice of paper, they more than likely wouldn't have found the murderers entirely because of how incompetently they mishandled and blundered the crime scene, including their careless destruction of vital evidence on the girls' bodies.
Oh Rachel it's despicable what these clowns get away with everywhere. Philadelphia USA
European laws are ridiculous. A life sentence is "harsh and cruel", so the guy gets to kill three innocent girls, only spends a few years in prison, and then lives a peaceful life as a free man in a monastery? How is that ok? Give me a break!
You do excellent stories that I’ve never heard of before! You have very quickly become one of my favourite channels!
Sounds like the cops were in on it, hence the shoddy and seemingly purposeful mishandling of evidence.
Side note; you have the Espana lisp down perfectly 😉
Yes she is excellent! Is that why Garcia sounded strange to me? Guess I have heard mainly Spanish from Mexico. It sounded like "Garthia" to me instead of "GarSia". Sorry I know I'm making a mess of that. My grandson used to date a Brazilian girl who spoke Portuguese. I had never heard the differences in that language before either. Very interesting to me.🙏🕊️
I wonder if the gay lithp came from Thpanith 😂
@@laurametheny1008 Yes, in the majority of Spain the C before an I and E is pronounced similar to "th", however this is not a "lips" as the person above is implying. As well as the Z before O, U and A. S is pronounced as S before all bowels.
This is however not the case in Andalucia (south of Spain) and Canary Islands, where the pronunciation is like in South America (so called "seseo"). This has historical roots on why it happened, you can search for it on youtube since there are some videos explaining this phenomenon and is the result of the evolution of the middle ages spanish being different in this regions.
It is thought that, since the majority of migrants going from Spain to South America came from Andalucia and Canary Islands, they brought the characteristic pronunciation with them.
These girls were my age, It seems like everyone failed them, everyone from the beginning to end, they would be in their 40's now probably with daughter's of their own, I used to hitchhike and travelled hundreds of kms, from an early age, this wasn't just bad luck and ten years for his part in these crimes is a crime within itself , the police and justice system should be put on trial for such a horrific handling of the whole case, doesn't give me any faith in their system or justice, the monsters still roam free and I'm definitely sure their are more terrible crimes still being done today, those men would only be in their 50's, murders don't just start torturing in their first murder and with getting away with it, their is nothing to stop them, I don't believe people who die in such circumstances rest in peace and their souls cry for justice forever. It really brings me back to the story of The girl with the Dragon Tattoo trilogy and how post war atrocities continued and we're covered up, even though that story is fictional.
Nicest speaking voice i have ever heard, very clear & articulate, i'm so envious & have never heard heard a speaking voice so perfect.... love you
Such a heinous crime against 3 young & innocent girls. An outrage that only 1 of the criminals were caught. I'm saying a prayer 🙏 for the souls of the girls & for their families.
Thank you again from Seattle ❤
Just joined...brand new member. I love this channel so much!! Glad I found it... better late than never lol.
Check out her sister's channel, her name is Kirsty Skye.
Thanks for the upload 😊
Always a pleasure when you post a video. You do such great research and it is clear how much these videos mean to you. You are another of my favorite crime channels on here. It's such a shame how the victims suffered. My heart goes out to their families and I hope some day justice is served.
Thank you for taking the time on this case, a very sad and confusing one, also your efforts on pronouncing the names in spanish.
Also, if you want more information, look for the investigation done by Juan Ignacio Blanco, a Spanish journalist.

@@emilymulcahy what a coinkydink, cuz I also find your tremendous lack of both knowledge and basic levels of discernment to be incredibly cringey. Jinx!
@@emilymulcahy over pronunciation? that's literally an age old dialect. smh 🙄
@@nuckinfuts7610 it's not the lisp, it's the over pronunciation
@@hexelvex2625 see above
Great work as always, I love your videos. I'm Puerto Rican and your Spanish is amazing! Your lessons are going very well, your pronunciation of the girls' names and locations was *chef's kiss* Keep up the amazing work!
Babble is, indeed, clearly paying off: she even got the "Castilian lisp" right!
Chef's kiss, I love it!!
@@TheSaneHatter aha! Thank you for your comment, Nick! I was a bit confused when listening to her pronunciation of some of the Spanish in this video…I thought I kept hearing a lisp and ofc that was strange to me, as I’ve never heard Spanish with a lisp before, even in my 5 (short) years of Spanish classes back in high school many, many years ago (I’m close to the age of the victims in this case - I was born in 1979). I plan on going to Babbel’s site and check it out! I’d love to learn new languages just for the fun of it, and I’ve heard so many great things about Babbel, so I just HAVE to try it! And the fact that she (the DC narrator…I’m sorry, I forgot her real name; I just know she’s Kirsty Skye’s sister) is already speaking awesome-sounding Spanish (including having already mastered the Castilian lisp) is pretty doggone impressive to me! 👍🏼😀
I know DC has had Babbel as a paid promotion on her channel several times, which says a lot about just how amazing Babbel must be and it certainly shows when she speaks other languages in her videos! Next time she has some type of discount to try Babbel I am DEFINITELY going to sign up! THANK YOU, DC (and @Nick H.)!!!! 👌
@@TheSaneHatter it is not a lisp though, but an actual sound part of our phonetic. A lisp is the mispronounciation of certain words and sounds mainly due to a problem in the mouth (teeth, palate, tongue...). The ce, ci, za, zo, zu sounds in SOME areas of Spain is perfectly normal and how it should be.
Assuming you are an English speaker, you have that sound in your language too in words like thin, thunder, thorn... 😉🙃
Sorry for the rant, Nick. Im just fed up with the lisp myth. Even worse when people say we got it because the king had a lisp and everyone copied him and it stuck... silly old wives tales!
@@greyLeicester You are right about the myth being wrong.
Thanks for the story, very respectfully done.
Trust No one.
Wow!
Yeah, I kidnapped the 3 girls, beat, tortured, raped them, helped to dispose of their bodies, and cover up our crime... But I didn't kill anyone and I say this with a clear conscience. Pfffft-HA!Sociopaths, have no conscience.
5-10 doners! They should've had him up his confederates before ANY reduction of his sentence would even be considered.
On a lighter note, I absolutely L🥰VE your voice and accent!
WOW!! DC, my hat goes off to you. The way YOU covered this case was by far, 💯% , in my opinion, much much better, a lot clearer information wise and so eloquently explained by you compared to the Netflix documentary. It must be said, your accent and ability to pronounce and annunciation of Spanish names and places is impeccable and very impressive 👏 not to mention beautiful.
BRAVO 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 thank you for covering this case in such a beautifully respectful manner.
Much much love ❤ your way from Houston Texas ❤ 💛 💙
I meant ENUNCIATE not ANNUNCIATION....sorry
Very sad lives lost so young. Great job on the video.
Washing the bodies before the autopsy makes no sense! Not unless they're helping someone out...
Wow many congrats on those pronunciations. 😀 Great video. I'm really enjoying your channel.
How absolutely horrific, these poor little girls went through immense and unimaginable pain, emotional suffering and simply pure terror. For a "judge" to say 170 years in prison for the murdering bastard that took their precious lives, is " cruel and harsh" is simply mind-blowing to me. He should have got the death penalty!!! I'm just simply horrified that that POS devil, is free and living in a monastery, a religious place of peace and love, it's absolutely sickening. I just hope their families have been able to find some semblance of peace over the years. God bless them. R.I.P beautiful angels. ❤️❤️❤️😢
Love your channel ❤
Anyone committed heinous crimes like this should immediately be put to death.
YT channels like yours some times make me consider canceling my TV subscription!
Her sister Kirsty Skye has a channel too, she is awesome.
I did it! No more TV 😀👌
@@theresaiwright7085 I just Subscribed to your sister's channel 🌞
What a sad case.
Good upload.
Thank you so much for taking such care with pronouncing the girls' names
30 years ago, the most hideous crime was committed in Spain and the actual culprits still haven't been caught
Washed the bodies in ‘92? They did that to the Jack the Ripper victims in 1888! That’s so inane
Im definitely a true crime/unsolved mysteries og. Used to sneak my grandma's and mothers old books and magazines etc etc as I was/am a tenacious reader. Love docs and I.D. and more recently, the many TH-cam channels dedicated to this topic. New to this one and I love it. For all the reasons previously stated by my fellow admirers, and more. Thank you to all involved for your efforts.

You’re incredible
What a bizarre thing, life is. Imagine, one day you're just driving with your wife down the highway, and then... something happens so that in what, 30 years, people all over the world would be watching this daily moment of yours unfold in a tv show.

Hello from Ohio 🇺🇸 Thanks for the upload. Very sad case 😢
Hello right back at ya from Tampa Florida 😊
Hi, 😊 from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania..🇺🇸
I love the attention you put in to pronouncing the names and places. There are some bigger channels that do not make that effort. And I love the accent, Are you from Ireland or Scottland? Im usually good at guessing. Inquiring minds want to know
She's Scottish 😊
Thank you 😊
Thank you for pronouncing their names correctly. Respect to you.
I recommend watching the Netflix documentary about this case. It's brilliantly made and it uncovers the truth. I never believed Anglés and Ricart to be the killers because here in Spain there were all kinds of theories around the murders. However, these theories and conspiracies were caused by the incompetence of the police and the fact that nothing as brutal as this had ever happened in Spain, this was something NEW; it became MASSIVE. People believed these things only happened in the USA. The girls had been so brutally tortured that everyone was in denial; the whole country was in complete shock, including the police and investigators. And so, the father of one of the girls became OBSESSED with the idea that the reason why the investigation had been conducted so poorly was because the police were trying to cover up very powerful people who were the actual killers of the girls. Everyone would say: "Anglés and Ricart are not smart enough to commit those atrocities" or "They are scapegoats, that's why the investigation was done so badly. Very powerful men might be behind this and the police are trying to protect them". The father of this girl appeared on TV shows for years and years until the point that the families of the other girls started to get angry with him because he even showed images of the corpse of one of the girls on TV (not the one of her daughter) and the mother of the girl recognised her daughter while she was watching TV at home. It was horrible. My opinion completely changed when I recently watched the Netflix documentary. It's obvious that Anglés, who managed to run away, was the killer along with his younger brother and Ricart. It has been proven, even with all the mistakes that were made in the investigation, it has been proven that they were the killers. I still can't believe that this father gave a hug to the younger brother of Anglés after the trial. This younger brother also participated in the murder of the girls. I really hope there's no afterlife, because I can't stand the idea that this poor dead girl saw her father hugging one of her killers. It's unbearable.
There is an afterlife and those three vile murderers will burn in hell for eternity when they die.
Great channel 👍👍👍
What a truly awful case. Those poor girls. May they rest in peace.
Can I just say how deeply impressed I am with your Spanish pronunciations? Holy cow. #goals
COWS ARE NOT HOLY !!!! Take it back or I shall smite you for blasphemy!
Another tragic case presented well. There is no better true crime channel!
If the girls had no tickets and no money with them, how could they go inside the club?
Why are 14 year girls staying out all night at a night club?
It's spain and it was 1992...very different times back then
I have never heard of this case before here in the US. Thank you for your thorough and sensitive portrayal of it. The two things that should have a connection in this case that are not connected here is why the police were shielding somebody but that shield does not seem to be attached to the men accused of this heinous crime. And only the first one caught is convicted? Really? I was an adult in in the 1990s and I know that much of what we can do now was not available back then but there was enough to do a better job on the crime scene than this! I fear religious modesty may have played a part in how the bodies were handled but there is no excuse for desecrating a crime scene by digging up the bodies before the area was processed! This is total disregard for procedure even back then! The torn paper implicating a known criminal is suspect too: most career criminals know better than to leave such evidence behind. What they would have left behind wasn't processed? Why? Why hasn't it been processed now? Is it gone? That wouldn't be surprising. It's so awful that the media circus here actually had real complaints like this to grind on. I truly hope it is untangled one day as the girls' families at least deserve answers. My condolences for the loss and horror they've had to deal with. The statue is beautiful and a fitting tribute to them. Let's hope it's also a reminder to their law enforcement to never commit such atrocities on an atrocity again.
I think you misunderstood parts of the video. Only one person got charged because Ricart was the only one caught. The other suspect, Anglés, scaped while Ricart was being arrested. There's theories that he's living in a fabela in Brazil now, but he most likely died after jumping off the boat.
The paper belonged to one of Anglés's brothers. That's how they found out who the killers were, they put the paper pieces back together. Anglés was the known criminal, alongside Ricart.
You should watch the Netflix documentary mentioned in the video, it is really well done since it explains the case from both sides of the argument: the conspiracy theory one that the father of one of the victim's believes, and the official records.
@@esther7826 wish I could watch the documentary but Netflix and I are having an argument right now. I would love to hear the father's theory as I doubt very seriously that anybody jumped off of a boat. That would mean they were remorseful and since I don't believe they would have been involved without payment remorse is highly unlikely at this point. Sailors respect what the ocean can do and wouldn't try to force a stowaway to go overboard. Life is too precious and they are all too well aware of that. They probably also wouldn't have known who they were so retaliation is out. Going to another country is highly likely. How did they get there? I don't have answers to this one, just unanswered questions like everybody else. It would take an expert to plant DNA back then so they were actually paid to do this or somebody very powerful became involved or both. The bodies were moved more than once. That was the one thing that was clear. Why? They found the bodies before they knew about the house. Why not just leave them there? Too much caring is shown here. Why?
(this is my 3rd attempt at trying to write this but i keep accidentally deleting it somehow. Sigh, here i go again) You can watch the documentary on other less official sites without supporting netflix ;)
I’ll try my best to explain Fernando’s theory but it’s somewhat complicated. While the trials were going on, he got invited to a late night program by Juan Ignacio Blanco, a true crime reporter. There they shared their theory: the girls got killed by the elite, and Angles and Ricart were the scapegoats that got paid to do the dirty work, kidnap the girls and get rid of the bodies.
Later on, JIB claimed that he was given a VHS tape by a church pastor a few days after he got to Alcasser. This tape contains a snuff film, in which you can see two of the girls laying on a bed sedated and various people coming intro frame to torture them. Or so he claims, because he is the only person who has admitted to watching the tape. To the day he died he kept threatening with releasing it, but he never did. He also says he gave the original tape to a spanish minister, who also never did anything with it, and he kept a copy. The pastor who he says gave the tape to him denies its existence, and Fernando has changed his story a few times. 1st he claimed he had never seen this tape in person, and a few weeks after JIB’s death he started saying he had seen the VHS but never watched its content.
No one else has seen this tape, since JIB never showed any proof of its existence.
And as a side note, the term “snuff film” became popular a few months before JIB 1st talked about it after Almodobar published a movie about snuff films.
This theory nowadays is pretty much only supported by qanon-esque believers, it has somehow developed into involving the royal family as well.
Oh, and Ricart, who after seeing how much this theory was growing with the public, changed his testimony on court and started claiming his innocence, that he was being framed by the elites and that the police had tortured him until he confessed to the crime.
Fernando and JIB did get a lot of support at the beginning, but quickly started losing it because of all the legal trouble they kept getting into. They got sued by the other victim’s families twice. The 1st time as after JIB published a book in which he included photos of the girl’s autopsies. The 2nd time, they tried to start a fundraiser, but one of the girl’s mother sued them because she didnt want her daughter’s name used and linked to the two men. The fundraiser never got legalised, but they still recollected money and donations, whiiich got them sued again although the case got dropped because it couldn’t be proven that they pocketed the money themselves. They also got sued for defamation a few times by some of the people they accused of murdering the girls on live TV.
If you ask me? I think this is a clear case of a deeply traumatized father after what happened to his daughter, who couldn’t believe a lowlife, scrawny and short dude like Ricart was capable of doing what happened to the girls, and that got taken advantage of by someone who wanted a quick launch into the public eye.
About the scape, there’s also two different theories here. Angles was last seen in Lisbon, and there he either:
- sneaked into the playmouth, and after getting caught by the sailors and locked into a room managed to scape and jumped to the water. I’m pretty sure the sailors didn’t know who he was, since they weren’t spanish and probably hadn’t heard of the case.
- took a boat to brazil, where he easily got into because he was brazilian and had a brazilian passport.
The court has just restarted his search earlier this year, and they’ve talked to a sailor who apparently spoke on the phone with Angles.
The abandoned house was known by other people. The Angles brothers were there frequently and they were always open about that. Their DNA was found all over the house. Had the bodies been left there, they would’ve gotten discovered waaaaay sooner than they actually were.
According to the official version, after the girls were raped in the abandoned house, they were made to walk to the burial site, where they were killed. You also have to keep in mind that this case took place in winter and the bodies where there for months until they were found. All the evidence there could be like body fluids was destroyed by the elements, it was a very rainy, cold and exposed place.
The hospital papers being found there have always been really controversial, just one of the many things this case makes you go ‘’what the f…’’.
The 2nd autopsy is also very controversial, but I can’t really speak about it because I don’t know much about it tbh
@@esther7826 thank you so much for taking the time to write this all down for me. I truly appreciate it! It clarifies some of what I thought was going on. I don't believe the Angles brotbers are still alive or jumped off of a boat. Why would a wanted fugitive call a sailor.!? What good would it do him?!? The only reason Ricart is is because he was caught and tried. Being in police custody is the only reason he's still alive. Sad that the bodies were buried in a rainy area. Their bodies could have bloated and burst from the extra liquid seeping into them making autopsies and outer body evidence collection almost impossible . Drowning victims do the same thing. (Hope I didn't gross you out with that. Sorry!) I believe the father was on the right track and I believe they were killed at that vacant house but were held elsewhere before then and the real brains and money had access to them at that time. Remember they found several DNA profiles on them not just the perps. Snuff films were making their dubious intro into the world when I drove an ambulance as a young adult. Never seen or heard of an actual real one yet. Videos of rapes and molestations , however , are common for agressors to do. This is the type of tape I believe they had. Somebody was paid to get rid of it. It also bothers me that both the father and JIB died so close together but no one else has. Money and clout can accomplish all of the current road blocks the authorities have encounteted. If they could find the place where the rape and torture of these poor girls occured then they'll start getting somewhere but you'll have to convince them that there is another crime scene out there and that they won't get killed if they find it! But money and political ranking are far more powerful in Europe than they are here so these innocent victims may never get justice. And that is so wrong on so many levels.
Your pronunciation of Spanish words & names is pretty impressive. You're AWESOME!
This is a perfect example of don't accept rides from a stranger. Unless you're willing to live by that rule in life that there's a risk in everything you do.
Im from that area. The 2 guys that picked them up were not strangers to them. They were acquaintances. Thats why they decided to get in the car
There is a risk in everything you do as a girl - or boy.
About a hundred years ago I used to hitch hike but now am terrified to walk anywhere on my own 😔.
Good wishes.
@@greyLeicester Thanks for the information, good wishes 🙏🏼 ❤️ 🍀 🗺️
Buncha dudes: [viol8, kiIl and desecrate three min-0r gurls]
You: u ghirls gotta stop doing stuff that's getting you merdered
@@no_peace no more like always be mindful of your surroundings. And it's because I'm Mighty smiles at you doesn't make them your friend. Some people smile at you before they do you great harm.
Great job. Luv ya sista!
Impressive pronunciation! Well done! 🎊 😊
Yeah I seen this story before ty.
Well done! Very respectful and spot on with the pronunciaciones. So jealous of a properly rolled rrrrr and you do it effortlessly.the girls last moments on earth was horrific. I pray they didn't suffer for long, but the findings say otherwise. The crime scene investigación was a joke, but Fernando Garcia's exploitation of his daughters murder for money is probably the most disturbing feature of this story.
Infuriating. Those poor girls.
I love your mix of accents. So cute. I'm from NY and when I speak German y family says the same thing. It makes my face so red.
Dunno, sounds like a police cover up to me
you slayed the life out of that pronunciation - of well everything i almost forgot you were Scottish XD
Damn, the Americans got to this video fast XD Excellent video as always, and thank you for taking the time to pronounce things properly, especially the girls' names. It's the least we can do to show our respect after all the poor girls suffered through.
No kidding! We are obsessed 🇺🇸🤣
Dark Curiosities is so good!
How could the high courts find indefinite imprisonment was cruel? But what those sweet, young girls had to endure was beyond cruel.
Great uploads what an awful case ! Just about to have my Sunday roast so got your playlist of unsolved on which is 44 videos long so when I fall asleep after dinner this will be on !
Six or seven people in a sedan is unlikely? That's nothing! A group of us once packed eight teenagers into a Honda Civic.
Seriously creepy! You should do the story of the Springfield Three from Springfield Missouri USA.
Wow I’m impressed with Spanish pronunciation
May all the horrifically murdered -- especially the young & innocent ones -- get true justice, and may their offenders be banished by God from ever incarnating anywhere ever again. Let their souls rot and the destroyed lives be restored anew to everlasting life in a good world next time around.
Bedankt
This case is a mini-series in NetFlix, I watched it and it’s so heartbreaking.
The were born the same year as me. So sad to think all this time I've lead a life they had theirs cut short
Absolutely terrifying!!
I agree with @ZeroChimp in every word. I respectfully suggest that you should do an episode about the Sandra Palo murder. Please.
Was this re-uploaded?
Yeah. She posted the original video over a year ago when she covered 3 cases from 3 different countries
Yes, l thought l was recognizing this horrible case too.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought I'd seen this before. I've watched so many crime stories and now the ongoing info about Gabby Petito that I don't know if I'm coming or going. This is such a tragic case tho'
You should cover the intriguing case of Camille Claudel...
The corruption in this case is disgusting
It broke the father. He lost his family his livelihood and his sanity. Ricard was the scapegoat the most likely perp was the Angles brother that escaped and his buddies... If the cops hadn’t bungled it so terribly the correct folks would be in prison.
2km, that’s about a 15-20 minute walk maybe a little bit longer.
No
E giustizia non fu fatta
