She’s not confessing, she’s bragging.
Exactly.
Evil personified!
It might not have received the very close attention it did except for Jillian Kelley being a minister's wife.
The classic tale of Good VS Evil!
but it is also a confession, confess through bragging
Exactly! Finally someone gets it
I think she confessed because she is proud of her actions.
Fanatics to the core.
Yup. They are going to say the did it to protect kids from SA
"Grandma" is a term of endearment & respect & love. PLEASE QUIT referring to this heinous monster as "Grandma Tifany"....its an insult
@@bambooprincess3495she’s no grandma.She wanted those children,as recruits for her twisted cult.
💯 correct
Oklahoma is not just a death penalty state, they use it. The last execution was April 4th.
Thanks Bamg!
Michael Smith was just on April 4 first one of 2024
@@Bamg12345 Whoa! Thank you for the correction!
I think she was counting on her allegations that Veronica's brother abused the children. A real sociopath
Same. Thinking she’d be treated like some kind of hero. Although I believe the allegations came from her in the first place? She’s a nut
@Jessdamessduval
A counselor from the children said they were unfounded and that the children have been coached by grandma
If she thought Veronicas brother had done something she / they would have gone after him not her. If she had another plan to go after the judge then this had nothing to do with claims about the brother. I suspect those claims were only made to try and sway the judge. They all knew it wasn't true I am certain.
Now the kids don’t have anyone. How selfish and evil
What about the mother or father of the children’s mother…their other grandparents? Did their mother not have parents that are alive? Let’s just hope they don’t give custody to the children’s father….he’s violent just like his mother and the new woman he was with had to leave the state just to get away from him.
@@starshine3588 the children's maternal grandfather (Veronica's father) has shown his grief-induced fury. I suspect he may try to get the children.
I agree, the father isn't without blame here. He wasn't voluntarily in rehab.
They do.
She was 150% consumed with killing the mother. If I can't have the kids, neither will she.
There were allegations of sexual abuse from the mother's brother. It has been stated that she was trying to protect the kids from going back around that kind of environment, not that she is justified in her actions.
If there was any kind of actual sexual abuse the judge would never grant custody to her. Allegations are just that lol @brookeburkett6130
@@coryvallad7578No kidding.
@@wildflowerhoneyhomesteadthe brother was 13 when that happened. Veronica got a job and her own house. That when she petitioned for full custody. Tiffany threatened to unalive her own son if he took custody. She didn't do this for love...she was consumed with hate. Granny kill Veronica on Veronica's child's bday. How incredibly sick is that? Happy bday grandchild, I killed you mommy.....
That's cruel to the grandchild.
Granny hired Timothy McVeigh lawyer....seriously
She doesn’t look the least bit remorseful or sad that she’ll probably never hold her grandchildren again. This just tells me all she really wanted was to kill their mother. Absolutely evil.
She didn’t love the kids, only herself. Someone who loves kids would never take an important person out of their lives, on purpose.
IMO this case is worthy of the DP because they murdered Jilian in cold blood too, who had absolutely nothing to do with the child custody case other than fulfilling a court ordered role. RIP Veronica and Jilian.
Thank you Sherlock
@@JK-lp6uw That was kinda mean spirited & unwarranted. What did @user-mj1lh1iy4x ever do to you?
Pretty accurate
What happened to the Brave 16 year old who spoke up and told law enforcement about their plan’s 👍🏻
I hope she is somewhere safe with a family member that's not crazy, and preferably far away from that town.
Witness protection program?
Nightmares is what you call this. I can't imagine what these ladies family is going through. RIP beautiful mothers 🙏🏻✝️😥💔
I believe her confession has something to do with their sovereign citizen status.
Grandma looks methy
I think Tifany recruited the 3 helpers by telling them she would be totally responsible and take the fall if they got caught - convincing them she would never tell of their involvement, She didn't think the whole story would be known like it was. The other 3 had nothing to gain.i read that Veronica had tried to get a Protective Order against Tifany before and it was denied. Seems like the court system around there was slanted in Tifany's favor.
Money always seems to do the talking these days! They say she has lots!
As more details emerge, this gets nuttier and nuttier. Like a deeply disturbing horror novel.
Now you know why her son is a sociopath
Tree and apple.
Wonder if that was the same judge who was at their house and was immediately fired by the city council.
No. He was a Municipal judge in Elkhart, Kansas. He handled things like traffic tickets, noise complaints, etc. He’s not a lawyer. The custody cases were in Cimarron County, Oklahoma, before a district court judge. Whole different stste, whole fifferent court system.
No. He wasn't and it was made clear.
Grandma has no conscious.
or conscience even
Bragging, so proud of her evil 'accomplisments!'
Her looks hardened 💀💀 the shade. I love it
but, they DID!!!! WOW
The judge was going to be next.Are you kidding me?How did these people think well they don't think obviously
Hey...HE IS the one who heard her threats and STILL allowed her to walk out and bring all this horror down on kids not having their moms anymore and a husband and families and friends who are now grieving. BC this judge DIDNT STOP the maniac who was right in his face! He is just as responsible in my opinion. JS
You don't have proof.
She'll plead not guilty in court. Happens all the time, unfortunatly.
So evil!
WHAT JUDGE? Goodness gracious, could you at least do the bare minimum and state the name of the judge?
The ringleader confessed
I feel so bad for the children. So sad😢
I do too. I think the judge should freeze ALL her money and forward it all to the 2 kids bc they will need it just to start counseling!!!
@@kathleenrabito9738I love that idea 👍🏼
Grandma Tiffany is one very nasty woman. To set up a scheme to plan this murder is very hateful. Shame on you all and I'm Praying you all go down. Thank goodness for the 16 year old's confession because CW was the witness and without CW they wouldn't have had much IMO. You're a God Sent to Veronica and Juliian. Thank you CW.
RIP Jilian and Veronica 💐💐
I imagine she thinks the other 3 will get off !!!
Seems cowardly to confess and then plead not guilty. If you're proud of it then stand on it, cow.
Please don't insult cows. They're sweet, gentle animals.
@@sunnyscott4876 true, youe right :(
What did the old crone hope to gain by her actions? Evil for sure. Horrific.
How can the ring leader turn on the people she got involved?
the grandma did NOT care about her grandkids....everyone knows kids are going to yearn for their mother, esp. at that young age.
And this was all over custody? What evil! Evil shows on all these ppl in so many ways😢
This case is crazy 😮
How do people convince themselves to do something like this?
Sometimes a rook takes a rook ♟️
MAGA. Do I need way more? Cults are like this. Way too many in this country.
She has issues for sure ... she took responsibility and now the father can get out of rehab and become full custody parent he hopefully won't be able to if the state government steps in
I think he still has other charges pending. And the whole reason she wound up with custody is he didn't want them and she bulldozed the court and lied about the mother.
She's NEVER going to ever see that baby. I don't know if her son will get custody.
@@NancyK-cu6xj the whole family is Waco
@@NancyK-cu6xj He better not.
he was arrested on a DV charge...likely wont get the kids
You roasted her! 😂 her photos are flattering and she’s hardened 😂😂
Talk has it grandma Tiffany is covering for Tad. I guess she planned on killing anyone who got in her way. I think Veronica was fixing to get her children back. Hope her children have found a loving place with her family.
For all these affected children! One family should not have ever been linked into this mess due to escorting at a custody meeting then the poor kids who lost their mother, fathers in rehab/jail(?) and now grandmother in prison for life or possibly death penalty! What a friggin nightmare for their life, I’m so sad for them😢
This is so sickening 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Cora will turn.But they are all four fanatics.
My bet is on Cora too. 🤞
@@lilithstribetoo late. 😂
I think she confessed because she wanted everyone to know what she did.
Yep, and also with her and her clan getting caught, she most likely had a plan for that too, which is she's older and doesn't care about doing any time....in her mind, she got rid of the mother, and that was her prize to take the lumps......sadly, if the Dad is in rehab and gets his-self together, he may get the kids.....that could be very alarming and dead wrong.....
@@dianemccloud5990 there's some talk that the dad knew it was going down. So he may walk out of rehab and straight into county jail if the rumour is true. Its a disgusting crime(s) and those poor kids!
As per usual in these crazy cases, the children become the least thought of and the most affected. smh.
Excellent reporting Brian and your team too
Brian, it's incredible to see you back in that chair!
I bet the son talked her into it. He still needs to be investigated, mama wanted to take the blame so her spoiled son can get the kids & not pay child support. She probably catered to him his whole life. R.I.P. to the ladies.
I think she confess because there’s a fifth person she’s protecting.
Hmmm. Interesting thought. Could have been her son’s idea.
This comment aged well! 😀
This is so sad.
This really is similar to the Pike County murders as the grandmother was suggesting that grandchild was being molested and then dreamed up the murders then turned and confessed. Very similar in content.
How tragic and senseless. How can anyone live with themselves, knowing they took two lives, for nothing but selfish reasons. Pure evil.
Oof flattering photo 😅
The judge that was going to give custody to the mother?
Brian goes from boots on the ground to looking sharp and in studio. Great stuff Brian!!
We're just seeing and hearing the same old stuff.
What exactly were you expecting?
She and the others knew they would get caught, their just so evil that they don't care.
why tf would they think for a second this would work out in their favor. so sad for all the kids involved
She plead not guilty looking for a deal from the DA in the end. Probably a life sentence instead of a death sentence.
I doubt the Judge will offer her a deal.
@@lilithstribe The State (meaning the local district attorney) will make a decision as to whether prosecutors will seek the death penalty
@LoriL010 Yes, thank you! I meant Prosecutor. LoL.
In fairness to my aging brain the Judge does have to approve any deal.
I don’t think any of them have entered a plea yet. No doubt it will be not guilty, though, when they do so.
@@TMann-eg1gi This story said she pleaded not guilty.
It'll backfire.
She was the Chairwoman for the GOP's Republican Party for the County of Cimarron! She was on the school board! She's rich and powerful. The town is probably glad she got caught and that this will end the rule over the town and county of this family in the area for good.
Weird part of the country.
Heartland, Bible Belt…
She has power and maybe they are scared for their own lives in in jail.
She gives us Granma's a bad nam. She's not even human.
We can all tell that hate is a powerful and look what it does to you. Granny looks about 80.
I have a feeling this isnt the first time they killed
Brian Entin you are great!
She is a narcissist and wants to show she's the leader. Go down as the strong one. She knows she is done so why not taking the road of its my idea... 🤢😡🤬
Omg
Brian is so respectful...he even calls Jennifer by her name, unlike Cuomo when he interviews Coffendaffer ( I know you don't mind, Jennifer!!)
what direction from where they were ambushed to where they were found?
That's ironic since the judge is a good friend of Tad and was at their ranch when it got raided.
No, he is a different judge. The judge they’re talking about here, is the one who was presiding over the child custody case. The guy you’re talking about is just a friend of Tad’s, who happens to be a judge in Kansas.
What a scuzz
Demons
Brian looks like a whole different person with a suit on 😊
Memories of Brian working outside w adverse weather covering Idaho 4 & Gabby Pettito cases. Glad NN recognizes his efforts & seems to be giving him more screen time
I think most men do. Same with women, look much different in a nice dress or business suit compared to casual clothes
Well, that’s awesome 👏 wow so glad she confessed 😅 we would’ve never guessed 🤣
Grandma looks like the kind of person to call anything woke at the drop of a hat... these are the kind of people that would vote for trump and complain about imigrants being a problem.
And the court gave the kids to her the mother in law 🤬 I’m so glad I never had a mother in law
Whoa g’ma you look rough.
She is too chicken s**t to face the Death Penalty, is why she confessed.
Praying for the Children.
She going for the can’t get a fair trial to have it moved
She got everyone involved in helping her murder 2 ppl then she's the first to confess and give the details the cops needed so she's the one that gets the most leniency. It's all about her
Leaders of Cults are always Narcissistic Psychopaths.Now how many others are in their cult?
All I hear is a lot of Armchair Quarterbacking!!! You're not going to know shit until their trials folks...
The grandmother not going be around forever so she want to take the trash out.
This from a county chairman of the “law and order” party. Slime.
Let her brag BEFORE God!!
She doesn't look like someone who has discovered moisturiser.
"Grandma" she could have cared less about what the kids life will be without there mother, all 4 are TOTAL MORONS, what did they think?, they could get away with TWO MURDER'S Like no one would miss theses women? Unbelievable!
RIP Jilian and Veronica 🙏🌹🙏🌹
What does “Kansas Moms suspects” mean?
They aren’t convicted yet
This might be a hot take but why did she want the kids so bad? I mean just enjoy being a grandmother. So odd, I’m not raising grandchildren.
Witch
Slam dunk case .
Granny will save herself..
The grandmother wasn’t the smartest cookie in the bunch, just the most dangerous.
I hope the custody judge deciding the fate of the children DOES NOT simply hand those kids over to their dad. Dad might be as crazy as his murdering mother for all they know! Apples don’t usually fall too far from the tree.
Have wondered though…Has anyone heard anything from the other set of grandparents?? The victim's parents?? Are they in the picture at all??
What does the judge have to do with being prosecuted? These murderers are clueless!
Sure, old lady confesses thinking she won't live as long? Like that's going to stop prosecution evidence showing othereise 😂
Why do they keep bringing this lady on 😂😂
Could it be, I was "responsible" was not so much a confession of personal guilt, But, I was scared and hurting and they acted to help me and the kids, and I knew which way the Judge walked home, could that be a make him To blame kinda thing? I knew he went this way and we made sure they were on his pathway so they could say well he was here, left and then they got gone, the judge did it? Just another POV maybe responsible wasn't a personal admission of guilt but setting up to blame. another, and I would be curious as to if the judges path in anyway intersects with where these ladies were found. Altho I do think he was possibly a target and the person they rented land from was possibly a scapegoat. I would love to know how LONG they had been plotting This.
Be blessed and safe all
She’s EVIL 😈
Why do you think she got the kids...
Because she wanted them and likely had plans for them ,what She wanted out of them and for them to do be raised,indoctrinated into her Cult?
Supposedly granny is worth 9 Million dollars maybe thats how
Misty? that's a pretty name~
She’s protecting the other psychos involved
