He's a snake, duplicitous as the forked tongue of a snake. HE is a psychopath playing dangerous games. Ladies: Watch out!
Oh no! Before you had a tremendous opening music and clip for 48h.The current is horrible! @48h
The previous openingccredots were amazing music and images seemed so coordenated. Now horrible
@@Eden-zg6vr really needed that second comment huh 😂
@@Chellz801 yes, because so fitting to the episodes. So mad ahah. Why do they change what is right?
As soon as he started to say, "She had gained quite a bit of weight with our daughter. She was at her heaviest and was feeling really disgusting..." he's describing how he felt about her, not how she felt about herself.
Absolutely!
Interesting how we process through our own lens. That’s probably the only thing he said I believed because I describe putting on weight as feeling gross. The way things move and touch that didn’t before… Yep. Don’t even like thinking about it. Anyway, you’re probably right was my point.
I rewound that, because I needed to confirm what I had heard. So, I completely agree.
Exactly. This is so sad. This guy is sick.
He probably did think that but, she probably did too. I felt the same way as do a lot of moms after giving birth. So, I do believe that part.
He did it 100%. He’s frightening, and loving the attention of being interviewed.
prove it
I agree. I think he was either chasing her or she was pushed y this rat. He took out a million life insurance and bang she's dead.
@@howdareyouexist ????!!!!
If you're guilty you would want to avoid any extra interviewing....
Who needs a fair trial when you have the "High Priestess".
What in the actual hell did I just watch with this interview. This man is DISGUSTING & dangerous.
This man should be behind bars. Never ever give him back his daughter.
naw he innocent homie
The fact that he’s laughing and smiling every time he talks about her death
A million dollars 💸 smile!
And her own sister!
Yep! At first I was asking what his motives where, they the million dollar life insurance came up answering all my questions
@19:05 the interviewer did a very good job asking many good questions and everyone takes this case seriously except for the guy it seems
@@anonimofied Me, personaly I take it very seuresly. Bc someone lost a life!
For him to take his new fiancé to where his ex died…is disgustingly insane!! That man is DANGEROUS
Right lol like what would have happened if his new fiance also "accidently fell to her death"? Lol
@@oliviavalentine7775thank goodness she left him. Apparently she doesn't think this American is a better half! Wtf was that about women?!
She looked extremely nervous being there with him. 😮
@@kitseywho Maybe it was a kind of subliminal threat.
Sending her a message like “come, this is your future “
Does this guy give off the absolute CREEPIEST vibes, or is it just me?
Yip
I wonder what she saw in him and why she stayed with him. He is totally creepy.
narcissistic arrogance
First time I’ve seen Peter outwardly show disgust during his interviews. “No kidding. That’s terrible, that’s disgusting.” 🤣🤣
That stood out to me too.
What part is this at? I think I missed it!
@@thereallifeofaimeebarton8152 near the end.
Yes I caught that too Peter's face of disgust😂
Disgust -- I agree. But Peter's pretty feisty. Remember the "meanwhile, back among the grown-ups" line from that Seattle episode?
This is the first time I’ve ever watched an episode where I absolutely did not believe a single word the suspect said. At all. He did it, 100 percent.
The WORST most obvious liar I have ever seen on these agree!
I actually felt physically sick after watching it.
@@eviehammond9509 oh it gets so much worse when you google this guy. 🤢 he was apparently going on with her 16 year old sister too.
Maybe, but where is your proof? If you were on the jury would you have voted "guilty"? If so, what would have been your proof?
I just started the video, and heard the fell off a cliff or pushed, I almost decided to watch something else. Unfortunately we see these cases a lot and there really isn't much evidence that isn't circumstantial. There are too many coincidences in these "accidents."
This is why I could never be a defense lawyer.
"Sorry judge, my client is guilty af."
😆🙌😆🙌😆 This comment is GOLDEN!!!
It isn't the defense's job to prove innocence (that's presumed until proven guilty), just to show that the prosecution didn't prove their case.
This is funny because some of the defense attorneys I know are also some of the most honest especially to their clients. They will tell them as much to their face like hey, there's this much evidence, you may want to reconsider going to trial but are good enough at trial to hold the prosecution's feet to the fire. But yes, that is literally their humor.
😂😂😂 me with every defense lawyer standing behind guilty mfs around the world… YOU TOOK THE WORDS FROM MY MOUTH. 😅
Everyone is entitled to a defense, without defense attorneys the law would run roughshod over us all. How about the innocent people who went to prison because of prosecution misconduct? You really want people to get arrested and automatically go to prison?
As soon as someone says “I’m a day trader” you know they’re sketchy
I'm a day trader.
@@dougk2932 Congrats
@@dougk2932I’m sorry 😞
Me too.
LOL.
That story about the wounded soldier at the end of the interview clearly answers all the questions.
Yup. He pushed her then went down to finish the job.
can't agree more. I said, yeap he did it. 😢
The "she wanted to have sx and I said no"....the "she was disgusted because she gained so much weight", "she wanted a $35k ring but I said $15k", "she drank and smoked weed" reeks of his own disdain for her. The snarky tone after he speaks on what happens. He clearly thinks he is better or above her. I definitely believe he did it...and he speaks with no remorse or emotional connection..
Every single one of those statements could be flat-out lies on his part, too. No way to prove it, since she's dead.
ladies...the moral oF the story is....dont ask a damn $35,000 ring. that sh@t is ridiculous For a worthless pebble.
@@ssllsg9439 I’m a woman. I would NEVER ask for a $35,000 ring. Sounds like a woman very full of herself.
You actually believe him? Ok...
Yesss that weight comment was so disgusting :(
“She gained quite a bit of weight and felt disgusting, so we came up with a way to help her lose the weight.” As a DV survivor, the way he said that is creepy AF and a dead giveaway.
It was like his last ditch effort to insult her. He's repulsive.
DM?
@@rockstarofredondo Domestic Violence
Yes!! That was his first huge giveaway in my opinion. He was trying to shame her . Then he went on to say about the drugs. Little does he know we see right through the BS. I hope he rots in jail
@@NikkiRich174 "DV"
This is literally the most disgusting, disturbing and disappointing case I have ever seen.
Ive never seen someone struggle so much with lying and yet still continue to clearly lie like a child. When the reporter had to say "look at me" i was baffled! His eyes and his words are so cold. God.....
The fact he talks about her gaining weight and goes for her little sister tells me everything I need to know about his character.
Exactly correct! What a monster 👿
Exactly ... She didn't think she was disgusting ... He did.
Especially when he also said that she was attracted to his “intelligence” which was one of his “assets.” Bragging that he was intelligent is super narcissistic and sociopathic.
And the WAY he said it, with a smirk and like it was disgusting or funny. Of course she gained weight, she carried a child (HIS- a monster’s child, unfortunately) for 9 months and hormones are messed up for about a year after that too! He’s awful.
That he realized she was going to be a trashy woman and trap him with a baby and he still wasn't going to marry her? Remember what the mom said? Her daughter "didn't like him, she liked his stuff. The condo, the money." Then the daughter traps him with a baby. Then she accused him of physically fighting her.
Remember what else the mother said "you know if someone is lying it's because they are guilty" remember what else she said "she was in a physically abusive relationship, I witnessed the fights" and when asked to describe what she witnessed "I was on the phone with her once, and I, uh, you could hear them fight." Have you ever been in a physical altercation that was so bad that you stopped defending yourself and just started calling people?
What else did she say "there's no way she would have done that (self deletion)" and then we find out she was depressed and on mind altering medicine for her depression. So there's a couple lies. She's guilty. She may not have pushed her, but it seems like she knew she was punishing him when she shouldn't. And I bet she accused her of knowing that he was with her little sister and it was her fault for keeping him in their lives and she should have left him instead of trapping him.
Him taking his new wife hiking to the same spot he killed his ex wife is the most bizarre, narcissistic, evil, psychotic thing I've ever seen 😳
why would she go?
I completely agree with you!!!
Criminals are known to revisit the scene of the crime.
he wasn't married to the mother of his child. He definitely did it
@@marissashantez6051 maybe she didn’t know
😂 THIS IS ONE TEXTBOOK PSYCHOPATH
They could get him on the footprint. If she jumped, there is no way it's 1 single sole perfect footprint, when you Jump, yes you leave an impression, but most often then not, the foot moves a little to the side, displacing a little sand on either one of the corners of the print. No one leaves a perfect footprint when jumping. Also very hard to recreate.
THIS!!!!!
He's enjoying the attention of this interview
I immediately picked up narcissistic, sociopathic, & pathological liar vibes. The fact that he can laugh & not even shed one tear talking about how she died is very telling. This man is evil.
Oh cut out the BS.
You dont know a damn thing.
100% right
100% agreed
EXACTLY. When he was on the SAME path his fiance died on and he's there with his NEW fiance and has the ARROGANCE to say, "this is the HAPPIEST day of my life" with absolutely NO mention of him being sad about her death or it being bittersweet ... he makes my skin crawl and my blood boil. He SHOULD be in prison.
The guy must be a master manipulater. Also the attorney is weird.
The way he smiled when the interviewer asked him to tell him when she fell.... Gave me chills... this man's a murderer.
Lol
@@EggmondChadShe deserved it. He was an alpha, and she was a jealous simp
SAME. Like, why is that amusing??
He now owns her forever and that was the whole problem … this ugly troll was shocked to find that this beauty was with him at all and he continued to buy that love until he couldn’t any more and then the fall!
Dupers delight.
The way he can still chuckle about how she “slipped off”
"Slipped off" but also "oh she was suicidal too so maybe it was that". Yea, you can tell those are just stories and not reality.
Never let this killer around any children PERIOD!!
the fact that he smiled every time when asked about her death is just creepy. like it’s a memory that he enjoys. He is 1000% guilty.
Pure evil
He is alwys looking down when lying
I put this on while cleaning so I wasn’t watching the screen but I could *hear* Everytime he smiled. It’s sooo unsettling.
yo my thoughts exactly. hes smirking and laughing and grinning ...just awful person
I know right. It’s so disgusting when he giggle with that kind of questions
This guys was beyond creepy. And he is the classic definition of a narcissist, sociopath. My heart truly hurts for his daughter. 😢
You expressed that brilliantly. 👏🏻👍
Right, I also wouldn’t date or get in a serious relationship with a Republican man with money. No way was he not.
This is why Republican men want to get with very young girls who are so naïve and lack self confidence and aren’t known to have so much self respect they speak up confidently in what they want, or pick a foreign girl or woman that are pretty submissive culturally because Republican men to this day have a very precise look great don’t talk very much, do what I say personally that he doesn’t have to keep fighting with a mature American woman that to our core we can not go along with their Bullshyt. Classic traits of Republican American men especially wealthy or richer. Of course he got with the Chinese woman, of coarse.
Exactly what I thought
he sure is.....
Totally agree--don't know if he killed her, but he sure looks capable of it. He is quite a piece of work!!
First he said he was crying non-stop when she died, but in the same sentence said when he's really sad he shuts down. Surprised he wasn't called out on that. But aside from that, this dude is so obviously guilty it's sickening.
He’s laughing and smiling while talking about her death. He makes Scott Peterson look like an angel.
He is soooo guilty. When he said Rhonda wanted to have sex on the trail but he didn't, I laughed out loud. What a stupid, unnecessary lie.
HAHA
He's all "I'm too prim and proper for that" yeahhh okay buddy!!!!
😂
Also he tries to use BOTH stories "she slipped" but also "it was possibly suicide". Either one happened or the other, but he's trying to say both are possible to deflect from what really happened.
She was smart and beautiful what did she see in him.
If my wife/fiancée died in my presence, suicide or not, I would be crying my eyes out every time I had to recall that moment. Not smirking and talking about how she was suicidal and used drugs. This dude is unbelievable
well that may be you. not all show their emotions on their sleeve. Can't be judging like that. if he started sobbing, you would accuse him of crocodile tears.
@@johnbell1810 Why are you defending a chomo ?
Stone cold. 🥶
@@lollipop4163 where does the video show that?
True, is so guilty that hurts!
Very common for murderers to demean their victims with claims of psychiatric illness, suicide attempts, and drug addiction. The fact that he brings this up, while simultaneously claiming to "love" her is a dead giveaway. This guy knew she was going to leave him and he decided he would profit from her death. He is a worm.
No one is talking about the sick fact that he also sent pictures to a 13 year old.
I'm 45 years old and have been a lawyer for almost 20 years and Steve is one of the most FOS individuals I have ever heard talk. I believe 0% of what he said.
Me either he’s a liar and she had fear in her eyes
I'm not a lawyer, and I have no idea what FOS is, but I agree. This guy is lying. Without even examining any evidence, I can tell this is a sociopath who is lying through his teeth.
@@OutlawJoseyWales71 pretty sure it's legal jargon for " Full Of Stuffing" B-)
@@angelataylor3822 of
P
Yeah he’s not even trying to hide his enjoyment of getting to be on TV and try to manipulate everyone again - he’s literally chuckling during the interview.
And the idea that anyone would go to prison so their child could get a few hundred thousand bucks is just another ridiculous statement.
Guilty as sin.
My internal creep meter bells and whistles go off like crazy while listening to this guy. He utterly disgusts me. His eyes, lip smacking, and his facial expressions are terrifying. I am so Sorry for her family for their incredible loss. This man is atrocious.
One minute she slipped, then she jumped. Anything to deflect attention from himself.
Took the words out of my mouth hes so obviously lying
His blink rate goes up, and he wrinkles his forehead, suggesting he's seeking support for his story every time he says something.
Major Creep! She was out of his league, such a sad story.
Yeah, mine broke.
I need to run out and get a new one before the next psycho jump out, from the bushes.
I hope he never sees his daughter again. 😢
I doubt if he ever even thinks about her.
i really hope he does bc i miss him so much
The way he smiles when talking about her death shows how he can't suppress his glee over killing her.
Not being able to or wanting to explain how she fell was enough for me and his giggles are just so sinister. If him and his lawyer thought this was going to prove his innocence they were sorely mistaken. Yikes!
In the end, he gets off. No justice!!
Absolutely. He laughed when a normal emotionally healthy person would have cried. It was very unnerving.
Exactly!!!! And when he was asked how she fell...whether her feet went in front of her......He didn't want to answer that question.
I always notice the eyes, and his are dead, no emotion or empathy or warmness, If I saw him, I would cross the street or move away from him. If he killed her, he will do it again. Just give him some time. He won’t be able to control his impulses. And rage.
What in the world would his defense attorney pay for his bail? That’s crazy. Damn the guy must really believe him. I don’t though. Too bad he didn’t spend that bail money on a truly innocent man, or woman.
No normal person would act like this guy. Telling stories of her using weed and drinking to slander her and make her look bad in death.
As soon as he said “ she considered herself disgusting” i knew something was up. Even if she did call herself that the way he reiterates it is a big red flag
Classical narcissist would say such things
@@DawnMeowI found that choice of words odd as well. Very odd-
Only Mary Jane and prescription anxiety meds found in her system, but she’s a raging drug addict 🙄
I knew he was going to do that as soon as he mentioned the cost of the engagement ring that she wanted.. the slandering starts off slow and minor, then continues to escalate.
I have never been so uncomfortable watching his interview i got anxious & full body chills. that man is dangerous.
"People can't believe that she's so smart since she's so pretty." No dude, that's clearly what YOU thought. This guy clearly thinks he's super smart but he's such a terrible liar, he sounds like a child. "What drugs did she do?" "All of them!"
He killed her ,and has no remorse of it. Wow ,such a creep and dangerous for society .
Absolutely, he ain`t thru committing crimes....
All for the money. 😡
Definitely that laugh of his made me cringe. He definitely killed her
Only half way thru this & I agree with you! He did it.
i think its edited that part he said "either i pushed her.... prob they asked how could she have died. this is why you should never give an interview.
When he said, she gained quite a bit of weight and she felt disgusting. That's not her words. Those are his. He's a sociopath and a narcissist. He definitely did it.
💯💯💯
That's what I thought 🤔
Exactly.
The look on his face and the tone of his voice when he said that...those are HIS words.
100% thought this exact same thing
Anyone that would walk along that trail is nuts!!
him: “yeaaa, i was in the wrong on that one…”
peter: “no kidding 😐…. it’s disgusting…”
LMFAOO
Quite possibly the most disturbing interview ever. I don't know how Peter worked through it ...I have the chills.
Ratings. They gave him the camera time he craved for ratings.
How his eyes arent rolled all the way back, permanently... it's a feat
Same, I’m disgusted 🤮 about the she wanted to have sex out there and he said “I’m prim and proper” oh it creeped me out. He’s gross.
The way he said that she was disgusted with her weight says it all. He thought it was disgusting. He is disgusting.
What weight? She's tiny. But in that hiking pic his thighs are huge 😯
Unbelievable how a dude that looks like he does would have the nerve to critique her figure.. she was wayyy out of his league in the looks department! You would think he would feel incredibly lucky to be with a girl of her caliber, and I somehow doubt there are many pretty women in line tryna date him. Poor girl.
When he’s a minus 2 and she’s a 10. The nerve.
I caught that too…he said she felt disgusting……it was odd to say the least.
I had nothing to do with rhonda castros’s death…..sounds so business like, i thought he loved her…now she is just rhonda casto……however, there is not enough evidence to convict him in my opinion…unfortunately
never watched a program like this, where the murderer screams guilty so badly.... it's infuriating to think, that he think all other people are THIS stupid! NEVER watched someone screaming guilt throughout!
Just listing to him for a little bit he gave me the creeps, its his demeanor and how he puts her down that makes him guilty in my eyes.
I like how he mentions she wanted to have sex and he declined.
That's the kind of information you definitely won't disclose for someone you care abut since it's inconsequential to the case, unless you are trying to appear "candid" by disclosing ALL information, except it's never one that is embarassing to you.
I also find it hard to believe she took her own life minutes after being in the mood for sex.
The details he reveled in like this one were especially gross to listen to. Later in the show he brags about how many women he’s slept with, along with his nonchalant attitude about Rhonda. 100% psychopath in my opinion. It’s terrifying to know this man walks free. The justice system failed on this one.
@@JRB09990 Yes, some DO get away from justice, an inevitability of the "innocent till proven guilty" rule.
One cannot get away from themselves though
@Christos; it was probably the other way around - He wanted sex and SHE said no. He was trying to save face and elevate his ego.
Your insightful observation of wanting sex then committing suicide is improbable. But then both things are lies anyway. This guy is delusional, he's in an unreal world of his own. Pathological lying is common for narcissists.
Yeah that’s a lie no man turns down sex from a pretty woman
He said no because he is too "prim and proper."
He pushed her!!!! There is no doubt in my mind. Anyone who can retell the story of a loved one's death while laughing and smirking is sick.
He is very off. You're right
He even went back with his Chinese fiance to where RhondA died like wth?? I believe he pushed her went down. To make sure she was dead and when he saw that she was still alive he made sure she was dead before he hiked back up before calling for help he is a very sick and twisted guy he definitely deserves to be alone disgusting
When he said he wouldn't talk about what he saw when she went off the trail that was awful. The look on his face. " I can say I had nothing directly or indirectly to do with her falling." Bullcrap. This guy is weird and he did do something to her.
Agreed!
@@emilymadsen628 That was on account of the advice from his lawyer. The interviewer most likely was told beforehand what his attorney had advised him and his smirk was because he was onto what the interviewer was trying to do sliding in a question he was already told he would not answer and why.
I just read online that Rhonda’s mother falsely claimed Social Security benefits intended for the care of Rhonda’s daughter. What great people.
I just did this comment before up there. Not only that the one living in that condo was her, she invited her single daughter there and let her have a no married relationship with him, it seems she was the one pushing for the money.
The smirk at 22:12 says *everything* . Evil creature. 100% guilty.
I worked in China, I met so many creeps like him who were therre using my vocation as a dating tool. He makes me sick.
This case is INFURIATING!! This man needs to be in prison. I'm disgusted and sickened by this poor excuse for a human who ruined an entire family.
why watch it if invokes those feelings in you
How could an psychopath understand feelings
@@TNT-km2eg The same way TH-cam comments know more than anyone in the world.
Idk one colored person that would've went there
@@MrDrake3816 dude said he's clinging to the edge in the rain while she ran full speed saying supergirl, not even white people are that stupid! Lol
Nobody seems to gave mentioned he was twice Rhonda’s age and that he liked very young girls (Rhonda’s younger sister). Also he said “Chinese women make better wives than American women”. I think what he actually meant was “Chinese women are more traditional and therefore easier to control” and I think that’s why his previous partners were always young - because he wants to control and manipulate his women.
💯 agree. My thoughts exactly.
I noticed that too!
Exactly!!!! He's a Sociopath 😒
Yes very true
Well said, all the women he chooses are young or look very young.
The pause after the interviewer asked if he killed his wife was chilling. He completely killed her, and the fact that he came on here and mentioned how much weight she had gained after pregnancy was disgusting, moving to China (red flag city) and smiling after questions about his wife death. This man is a creep.
Him painting her as a basically life-long drug addict is just as unbelievable as him expecting us to believe that she decided to spontaneously jump off a cliff to her death. He’s a 🐀
Sometimes , justice needs to be served outside of a court of justice.
This is one of those times!
Agreed‼️
Agreed💯
400%agree
AMEN!!
How the hell did he believe this interview would make anyone think he didn't do it? Dude comes off guilty as hell.
Dude is certifiably sociopathic
He’s in an interview about his partner and mother of his child who supposedly died in a tragic “accident”, and he talks about how Chinese women make better wives than American women (like the deceased). Speechless.
He's not wrong. She saw him as a bank.
@@biggiebaby3541 So does foreign women.
@@timverco8016 What does that even mean?
@@biggiebaby3541 and he saw her as a trophy.. Quid pro quo BUT they both ended up disappointing each other in the end.
Yep was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt until that one!
How to say you are a murderer without saying you are a murderer.
He wants to confess so bad for the glory of it.
But my god, why would she stay with the guy? I mean, she had everything to offer a guy much like herself. I mean I only had to watch about two minutes and it's pretty obvious he killed her. The guy is just "off", there is something wrong with him. He is like too deadpan, like a psychopath. Poor little gal, so many women stick too long with bad men. I mean, if a man ever hurts you on purpose, just once, that is more than enough, you know what he is, get out. No matter what, be gone. OK, I finished watching it, I knew it, guy is Satan in the Flesh.
The little creep did it. GUILTY!
This man clearly did it. He can barely even muster up a decent story, that's how little he cares, and keeps smirking or laughing when talking about events leading up to her death
For someone that lost the mother of their child, and someone they loved, he seems very pleased. To me he’s relishing in this interview, constantly smiling while talking about the incident.
Dupers Delight?
Truth Hurts..That was astonishing to watch!😱🤯
Absolutely
You expressed that brilliantly. 👏🏻👍
The term for the smirking when talking about Rhonda’s death is called “Duper’s Delight”!!😢
No one, who is innocent, let alone in their right mind, would snicker when he did. Rejecting to answer logical questions, is a tell all. Disgusting. One day he will get what he deserves. Rest in peace Rhonda.
It's called Duper's Delight and he does it several times.
@@justmyopinion6345 I just learned about this on deception detective.
rhonda got what she deserved
It's his lawyer that has forbidden him to say so to avoid that it could be used against him in court. But he sure seems like a psychopath.
An innocent man might refuse to answer questions due to directions from a lawyer,but the laughing was incredibly creepy.
Also....who tf takes his fiancee on a hike to the place where he is accused of killing his wife?!!
this dude is an absolute freak
The only time he cried or seemed sad at all was when he talked about himself being alone all the time now. Every time he talked about Rhonda he smiled and laughed. Horrific.
This man is the exact reason why we need a registry for people who have restraining orders against them
Wow that’s creepy
Restraining orders are useless
I agree
Genuinely asking, it’s not public record? That’s terrifying if not. The public should be able to see that.
@@birdi3beezshe or he means a national registry I believe
He's a complete psychopath. The way he portrayed her as a needy drug addict and keeps on smiling throughout the whole interview is so chilling. Put him behind bars for life!
wow! that's the criteria for finding someone is guilty. It's a witch hunt times all over again.
Shout out to whoever does the music for 48 hours. The beats slap!
Not even 3 minutes in...HE DID IT
As soon as he said "she felt quite disgusting," I knew he was guilty. Even if those had been her exact words, you wouldn't repeat them to describe someone you love.
let's all dog pile on the guy. he's guilty. he's a guy.
I thought that´s how HE felt about her. He´s saying she felt that about herself and maybe she did but he definitely did as well. Also, the way he says that he has gained weight.
@@johnbell1810 yeah, cos that's what she said 🙄
Stop projecting whatever your trauma is, John
@@johnbell1810 Who hurt you John? Mommy didn't love you enough?
@@lollipop4163 lol
Prob not the best time to declare that "Chinese women make better wives" when you're trying to convince us Rhonda did this herself🤦♀️. It's that good ole intelligence he has that he was speaking about 😫😩
Thought the same thing!! What an idiot!!
He thinks he's smart but he's really not. He just has a big ego, that not the same. That dude is dangerous.
Kind of implying we are idiots and deserve what we get!
That really caught me off guard. Like his demeanor, accusations and overall personality was shocking. But I had to rewatch that statement because WTF. this is the best version of himself he was able to conjure up to display for the world. I cannot imagine what he’s like behind closed doors. And the criminal charges/allegations are just the ones people spoke out about. Honestly pure evil. Terrifying. I’m glad his daughter is being protected from him.
I thought that spoke volumes of his character when he said that.
it is so sad that murderers have better protection than innocent victims. really sad.
This is why it's never good to get with someone purely for money or status. Because if that's the only connection, it is not going work well, at least if you attracted to them, you can make yourself make it work. But if you're not even attracted to them, and you're only with them for financial gain. Eventually you will start to lose interest an resent them
This guy basically spelled out several times that he took this girls life it’s insane to me he’s walking free.
Exactly. Its sickening he only got 19 months....
@@vriskaxtereziotp Karma will catch up with him…..
Rich dudes are untouchable
@@Talleyhoooo All involved were and are bad characters.
@@jenniehughes6927 How so?
Wow he really takes every opportunity to slander and smear her character. Refuses to take any accountability. Laughs as he talks about her death. This is one of the most disturbing interviews I've watched. I have no doubt he did it.
Yikes, watched part way through and thinking some things are better left un-watched
Absolutely 100%
Yeah l so too why he on TV talking and laughing about killing this woman and he not in jail ridiculous
Anyone who bad mouths the victim so much is hiding something. He is evil
This is why I don't believe in jury trials, because of people like you. Zero evidence and you judge on his demeanour
He really giggled when asked, "What do you remember about the fall" psychopath
The mother failed her daughters
I’ve watched countless programmes like this, but for the first time ever I’m absolutely convinced that this guy is a murderer. His mouth is saying one thing, his eyes say something completely different. Chilling
It’s all in his eyes.
I could see it in his eyes too, exactly what I was thinking
Yes! So creepy dude.
He also literally laughs at questions about her death. Like wtf
True this case is very obvious
This guy is one of the creepiest humans I’ve ever seen. I pray Rhonda’s family gets closure and is able to move on.
If he was able to have a relationship with a minor, for 4 f*ck*ng years! Touched a 13 yo inappropriately, admits them then say "owh.. that part I was totally wrong" was just beyond... Now I fear for his daughter to comeback to his side, imagine how those kinds of creatures define women and cares Nothing whoever they are in his life! So... freaking disgusting. I am hoping to never let his daughter come near him ever again that's just horrible for him to be around.
@@zenasinney477 I thought there wasn't a time limit on convicting pedophiles. Why don't they arrest him for that. Why didn't his mom have him arrested? I bet she wish she had now
@@dianabranham7332 I don't know what kind of connections this guy have, but we know this is not yet the end of the story, he's not going to be the one who will have a happy ending here. God will never allow that.
Speaking from experience, when you bury your child. Closure is not possible, nor is moving on.
The show makes him look as creepy as possible. Just like they make her seem like an angel instead of a gold digging mental case.
A 23 yr old doesnt think about a life insurance policy nor would she ask the father of her child to promise to take care of his child. This man is a bold face liar.
He won’t look the interviewer in the eye when he asks about the foot print
This guy is off the bat completely guilty. She was running from you because you were trying to strangle her, then you caught up to her and pushed her off. You told it all in your story, Sir.
Ok but how do account for the lower injuries only to her lower extremities?
@@MrFergilo pushing would make her go feet first as she’d be upright
@
Sophie Campbell actually if she was pushed, her body would probably follow the head
@@defunddemocrats2470 I think she could have done many twisty turns on the way down, the original comments was moot regardless
right no one would be that carless to run down a wat trail with a 150 ft cliff
He pushed her and then went to finish what he started. And he loved what he did. You can see it by how he talks, smiles, and laughs about it. What a disgusting human being. I hope he never gets his daughter back and that no other girl falls into his trap.
Yes and called it a mercy killing ffs
I'm rather surprised any of them fell for him. He's not attractive in any way. He's creepy.
@@lisahughes7377 He finished her off so that nobody found her while she was still alive.
Idiot looks absolutely guilty. He killed her. Plus, he is definitely not in her league. She is a 10 and he is a negative 10.
The way he said she thought her body was “disgusting” made it sound very much like that’s how he told her what he thought about her body often.
Absolutely, that an the fact that he thinks his intelligence is attractive says guilty, the end 😥
Facts
This irony, of course, is that this guy is a dog, and baby mama is a beauty.
Yes that's exactly what I understood of that statement.
He is utterly disgusting.
I'd like to add in that she's gorgeous in her post baby photos. HE is disgusting.
He’s so proud of what he did, and got away with. I feel so bad for her family, and any other women in his wake.
Grade school girls need to look out for this one
And his daughter
32:13 Peter you are my HERO right here!! As a victim, I wish more people would say it like this❤
Chasing money instead of emotional fulfillment in relationships never ends well….
Look at how defensive he is and the anger lurking underneath just when he is corrected on saying "commited suicide".
the5thYearSeniors...Yes.
The mask slipped!😳
I was thinking the same thing!
he gaslights
Editing
Exactly!! He is guilty asf he never answered any questions in the years before until now, he prepped himself well supposedly smh with that SMIRK ON HIS FACE
The minute he chuckled when recounting the moment she went over, sent shivers up my spine.
exactly! its a satisfying tone of voice ! when he says it !
Terrifyingly smug.
Why ? Maybe she fell in a funny way ....
@@jellyrun1 _"Francis, you really should see somebody."_
What a sad & scary way to go. 😢
He looks so happy about what happened. So creepy.
The fact he smiles when talking about her fall is that he's reliving it, and he enjoyed it
Maybe just a little bit. 😅
Oh definitely at that point im convinced of his guilt
One of the sickest sociopaths I’ve ever witnessed. Every time he was asked about her fall/death, he laughed or smirked. He even basically acknowledged killing her at the end. Wow, my heart goes out to her family.
So glad others caught his laughing and smiling when the fall was mentioned. Guilty!
That is a ridiculous comment. Frustrating that people jump to such idiotic conclusions.
After my brother died from a car accident I couldn’t go on that highway for a long time and still prefer not to, but for this man to take his fiancé so nonchalantly on this dangerous trail where his girlfriend lost her life is unbelievable. I’m so glad his fiancé/ girlfriend left with her life intact.
I agree, and I'm sorry for your loss. I know this is going to come across as harsh, but as far as I'm concerned, this speaks volumes about the fiance as well. Any woman with self respect wouldn't want to relive that with him. "Oh yeah, this is where she "jumped", let me get a video of you smiling here." Just my opinion, but she looks like the "elevator doesn't go all the way to the top". And narcissists like this guy pursue women like this. To use the words of Lenin, "Useful idiots".
@@oldhickory4686 Thank you so much. Yes I felt the same way that the woman especially while laughing for the camera on that hideous trail had to have a serious problem. But at least somewhere along the way she realized she was with a deranged man or else he got bored and sent her to her homeland. The number of psychopaths/sociopaths today is very scary and I pray this man never got his daughter back.
@@janicescott7338 I lost my brother in 92, so I can empathise completely. My gut feeling is with the language barrier, he never disclosed all the details. But once she realized the full situation he was in, even she was probably like, "I'm going back." I get comments from women on YT where they say their job isn't to raise their kids, it's just to help them into whatever path they choose. As far as I'm concerned this is one way to create a pyschopath. Because guess what road kids choose. Me, myself, and I!
@@oldhickory4686 Exactly! And thank you. Sorry for your loss too. I was thinking she may not of known English at all when she met him. No way she would of gone on that deadly trail hike all happy if she was in her right mind or knew the details unless he had her completely manipulated. It’s really shocking how these kind of people can manipulate their victim’s because right away we could see he is a perp. And some of the bazaar things he said at the end insinuating he could of put her out of her misery. Those are real words of wisdom about bringing children up correctly! In our society it’s all about materialism and buying them off!
@@janicescott7338 I believe most narcissists have masks to put on when dealing with people to disguise their true nature. I noticed two times where the interviewer told him to look him in the eye. And later as you mentioned, when he told that story; implying he killed her. He is one of the few that has never learned, or despises to use the mask. It's fascinating to watch.
It's great how he admits to being emotionally abusive as if it's no big deal. Lock this guy up.
Some guilty people are really bad at pretending they are innocent. This guy doesnt even try!
She didn’t feel disgusted with her weight but HE did
Precisely, I thought the same as soon as that psycho said the words!
True
I don't see any photos of her having "gained quite a bit of weight."
I thought the same thing! To me, she looked beautiful after she had her baby. But so what. You can see just how controlling that creep was and he certainly enjoyed picking her apart. Sad
Jana, that was my first thought!
