Yeah, I’m not sure why the police officer in the room couldn’t testify as to what he heard. I know it’s not the same, but I don’t think it should be thrown away completely.
@@Hanniekinz because we don't know what she said, and he has an interest in putting her in jail. She would probably say she didn't confess. No proof is reasonable doubt.
Gosh.. sometimes a relationship can really be toxic for both people. I wish people would let go of relationships like this. Both people may have been ok on their own..
It seemed to be very toxic for both of them... the abuse was mutual... so my question is this... Had it been the other way around, and MK was killed... with the same exact evidence and no confession... and a self defense claim on his part... do you believe that he would have been found not guilty as well?? 🤔 I think he would be found guilty of first degree murder under the same exact circumstances... so because she is a woman, she is able to claim victim?? Unfortunately, our system is very flawed... I don't believe justice was served here
@@veronicanonica all the women of the jury thought this girl was guilty but TWO men didn’t . It’s rare that a man fails a man but they chose a case like this to do so 😆
If they don’t make it one of the charges, they can’t charge her with it. Soo many times people that should be doing time don’t because of over zealous prosecution
Here in Muncie Indiana we have an unsolved missing person case. Ashley Morris Mullis ended up missing 4 years ago. Her father is desperately seeking answers. He literally stands on the street holding missing person signs. I’d love it if you could bring awareness to the case. Her father is very receptive to interviews.
Here me out tho: evidence or not, a man died. Why not at the very LEAST charge her with manslaughter or accidental manslaughter. Getting off Scott free is ridiculous
I’m pretty sure that it was a debate whether it was murder, or self defense. Cause you have a right to defend yourself if someone if trying to hurt you. So even though she mostly did kill him, it’s not necessarily ridiculous because the ruling (unfortunately) was self defense I’m pretty sure. I hope this helps!
I swear I can’t watch nobody else’s true crimes she tells them so genuinely like you can tell she’s not just telling a story to tell it she’s telling it because she cares !
Now this is just from my personal experience from being in a DV relationship. As a victim we know we can't fight back or anything in private. So in public it looks as if we're the mean one. But really we're just showing all the built up emotions. I also never spoke to anyone about it. But he constantly talked about me to try to make me look bad or like I deserved it. And I also have went looking for him to come home. They break down your soul and who you are as a person, you depend on them to live. Because they make you believe it. My abuser ended up I prison for being a habitual offender. Who knows what really went on with them though. @Kendall Rae
Yes.. when I was listening to this it hit home. I would react more in public because it is almost safer? And yes they know exactly how to trigger the response they want out of you so you look like you are unstable. And even though you want to leave if you’re trauma bonded then you feel like you’re dying without them. It’s a very hard situation for outside people to understand but psychologically your abuser is also the person who comforts you so it makes you feel like you need to be with them to survive. It is just a very sad situation for all of the families involved.
I did not know that it was a normal part of the DV timeline of abuse to make the victim seem like the one abusing………….That’s where I’m at in the timeline now. 😢💔 I have called back to back like that too and blown up texts….I even called his mom (asking for advice and wisdom…not to stalk the man. To be clear.) all of that because the last thing he said to me before he left, whispering under his breath…was something like: You’re daughter is f*+\# bc of you. I feel sorry for her with you as her mom. I would never, ever harm him or anyone physically. I’m getting out. I am just thinking, why was he so vocal about her hitting him or being crazy? I AM a victim. It’s humiliating to tell others, it’s hard, it’s not like I vent and complain openly that he’s this psycho. I say to everyone he’s going through some hard stuff, but he’s a good person. He just needs help. No ONE, no one should be harmed physically. And it’s heart breaking the young man’s life was stolen from him. Again - it is NOT ok to harm anyone, if there was abuse - he did NOT deserve this. If this wasn’t abuse - he did NOT deserve this. So it’s irrelevant really. Just hurts the family overall. So sorry for the young man @ his family. 🤍
Agreed. My ex was extremely manipulative and a total narcissist. He had everyone convinced I was horrible and abusive to him "behind closed doors" and he would push me and push me and any reactive abuse I had in public he would be like "SEE SHE'S CRAZY?" And then when we got home he'd verbally and mentally assault me, throw things at me or just past me, punch holes in walls, hurt himself to "not hurt me" and threaten me physically. I got out before it escalated any further. I do not think it was right for her to kill him, but it may have truly been in self-defense. It's definitely not something people outside of DV can understand. Your abuser will 100% turn the world against you so no one will ever believe you and paint you as the villain so you are completely ostracized and alone without them. Like forced co-dependency.
I agree. Sounds like the state should have charged her with a lesser charge like man slaughter or something that fits the crime just to a lesser degree than the original charges. If that makes sense. Maybe she wouldn’t have gotten off free as a bird. Definitely deserved to go to prison for this.
@@Crayola.n Yeah a lot of times the prosecution doesn’t want to charge with the lesser offense because they are afraid the jury will go with that instead of charging them with straight up murder. But that’s always a risky move because then you have situations that turn out like this.. Where because there wasn’t a lesser offense to charge her with she just gets off with not guilty and no punishment. Should have added some lesser charges for sure!
my birthday is August 1st.. it’s such a weird feeling knowing you were having such a a good day when something horrible was happening to someone else on the same day..
This. She changed the story many times and if what happened was true then she'd be repeating that one story all the time not changing it as she pleases unless there is more information about what happened she remembered but she'd keep the first statements as how it is with added info but she kept changing.
@@Maya-dw5jz right...she’s edited it in her mind(several times) depending on who she’s speaking with to create a more suitable narrative for this outcome, getting away with it.
I don’t believe the jury made the right decision. She should have been punished for her actions. I don’t even believe she was abused. She made herself the victim. She’ll be judged by her maker when her time comes.
@@VLM1313 I think it may also be with how the information given is seen as like the first statement she gave they didn't believe her so she tried to change it into something believable but again it didn't work. I have worked in jury, and took part in court proceedings and this happens a lot. They try to créâte these scenarios. She should have been convicted becsuse she did murder someone whether or not a mistake or with intention.
I'm sure she was terrified to admit she did it. Fear can make you do and say some crazy shit. Not saying she's innocent.. I think they were both toxic to one another and since they didn't separate, it could have been a toss up over who ended up dead.
@@Ellie_baby not really. He was trying to get away from her. He was at a friends house the night if his death and she followed and chased him until she made him come over to the house to eat. He didn’t want to stay with her and she went psycho and shot him. Realized what she did and called the cops. Abusive as he was I 100% think it was a reaction to how she was and he wouldn’t have done shit but leave her as he was trying to do.
@@DasnotCool I was in a situation, wow, almost a year ago now where my ex would CLAIM that he was trying to avoid me. It was weird because I knew we had our problems, but I slowly started to see his friends and relatives treat me very coldly. It wasn’t until I became close with one of his friends that I got told what was being said about me. When I confronted him about it, (around the beginning of Covid), he went to work and took my set of keys and my phone so I couldn’t leave. The doors on our unit locked automatically after they close so he did this knowing that I’d have no way to get back to my belongings or my pets if I chose to leave and no transportation or way to call a friend. It was bizarre because for months he pretended I was stalking him, pressuring him to stay with me or being some other shade of unreasonable when in reality I desperately wanted to return to my old apartment complex and live peacefully but feared he would hurt my pets or destroy my belongings in the transition. People can really lie hard.
@@andreiaanderson3394 in no way at all is your story related. This dude left her ass and she went psycho. She found out where he was and chased his ass till he stopped and came back home lady. She wanted him home to “work it out” and when he didn’t want to she shot him. Her story is muddled and has changed over 10 times. She’s a liar, a murderer, and a downright pathetic human being who should be behind bars.
Ok I really have an issue w the statement “there’s no way someone w the trauma Mary claimed to have would be looking up these horrible things” uhm hyper sexuality is VERY real after abuse, trauma does weird things to the brain
The evidence was that they proved he was sitting down when she shot him so that wasn’t self defense. They obviously had a toxic relationship on both ends but she didn’t have to kill him.
Maybe she sent them from his phone to herself? Kind of like that crazy lady who was sending her bf and herself messages from his exes phone pretending to be the ex.......she could have sent them and then deleted them from his phone so when she was planning on killing him it would be "proof".
@@lf9341 I mean, from my understanding you know when the text was sent. It wasn't mentioned that it was sent the night of the murder, so he most likely texted it himself
@@juliarose7236 I think she could have been planning to kill him and sent those text maybe weeks or days before possible when he was taking a shower etc. The thought came to my mind due to another case. Pretty easy to do if you are a psycho.
@@lf9341 I’m not saying she’s innocent but I’m pretty sure it’s confirmed the texts are from him, they check all of that with the cell towers and the dates and times and location. either way, she did kill him on purpose. the evidence shows he was sitting down away from her when he was shot, how is that self defense? smh. I don’t think this was planned though, they would’ve been able to see if it was, I mean it’s possible it was planned and nobody knows forsure, but I feel like she would’ve slipped up and they would’ve found evidence of her searching things up on her phone/computer, buying things to plan the murder, actual proof of the messages being sent by her, etc. who knows though, maybe she hid it well and got away with it.
They probably were going to later down the line and indirectly directly teach their children how to treat their significant other/let their significant other treat them. Sad AF.
I think that with how they uncovered the information, that this was a terribly toxic relationship. I think if he didn’t pass away, that it’s inevitable that one of them would be dead no matter what.
Maybe she sent them from his phone to herself? Kind of like that crazy lady who was sending her bf and herself messages from his exes phone pretending to be the ex.......she could have sent them and then deleted them from his phone so when she was planning on killing him it would be "proof".
This is so idiotic. She did kill him and if he was sitting on the bed then he was not lunging at her and therefore she was not in danger. It is murder.
Nonetheless there’s no confession tape and not enough proof beyond a reasonable doubt. It’s unfortunate but they were both toxic and certainly had issues.
As someone who is a gun owner a gun doesn’t just “go off”. She killed him, and got away with murder because of those texts he sent a year before. Them losing the confession tape was awful. Both toxic af. Omg, where is she??? I hope she’s not in my state......
Hey! I’m from Ireland and we don’t have guns here (well, debated hahah but definitely not legal) can you explain something to me (you have a gun and obv know more than me), when she said on the 911 call her “gun was tampered” what does that mean exactly? Like is that something that can easily happen?
@@BubblemouseM If the question you are asking is "What does it mean when a gun is tampered?", when something is "tampered with" it means someone else other than her messed with it or "sabatoged" it, hope that helps ^·^
@@randomfandom101 OHHHHH thank you! I assumed that’s that she meant in the 911 call but then the “tampering” of the gun was never spoken about after that so I wasn’t sure if, when it came to firearms, “tampering” meant something else! Thank you for your reply :D
As someone who's lived through an accidental shooting where it wasn't known there was a bullet in the chamber, it can happen... I don't think it's what happened in this case AT ALL, but it is possible.
i think those texts from steven are definitely enough to raise resonable doubt. sounds like their relationship was really toxic and vioent, but "reactive abuse" is a thing. id probably vote to acquit as well
I agree with you 100%. He sounds like a narcissist, so of course he would’ve always been playing the victim while smearing her name. Just the wording she used describing everything made me think “reactive abuse!” Honestly, not an excuse to take a life, but I believe self defense.
I agree. I was in an abusive marriage for 27 years and he would be the hands on abuser and me the voice. When you are in a toxic relationship your nerves and temper and control can make you do things you normally wouldn't do. You feel like you can't live without them. That no one would want you and you wouldn't be happy with no one else. When it's good it's good but when it's bad it's bad and someone always makes the decision to take the bad one step further. There is always a breaking point ALWAYS.
Thing is the truth might be somewhere in the middle. The girlfriend suffered from a traumatic experience this altered her perception of a health relationship is. The mother comments about her sin being afraid that the girlfriend would commit suicide can be used as proof on what might have happened in the end.
Her simply lying about how she did it was enough thought and tying to play the sad scared girlfriend who “accidentally “ killed their boyfriend on the 911 call (knowing she was drunk or drinking and she probably killed him out of anger especially if they were arguing which can be proved and boom the motive is there and tbh it’s obvious) etc if it was a domestic violence situation and She was at risk or getting beat or something the cops would know she would’ve said that first on the 911 call too. I just got further in a video more motive he was gonna leave her ass as he should tbh And there’s proof she’s pulled a gun on him before just for a fight this time it just so happened that she killed him. Ik you can’t be re trialed for the same crime buttt shiiitt she needs to be cause she probably gonna do it again .
They had all the evidence for how many times she would change her story, and evidence that he was just sitting when she killed him. All evidence that she went after him but NOT GUILTY. I really don’t understand the word no enough evidence.
I believe he could be abusive, those text messages show that. But in that moment when she shot him, it was solely her killing him out of anger. She got so lucky those cops fucked up with the audio, oh my god. She was guilty.
@@sarily626 i’m sure they probably did in trial but i doubt kendall could show them without being demonotized. hard to know without looking into how much was actually released to the public
I agree that she was guilty. The grease on the gun proves that she was ready and willing to use it. Unlike most of the other comments on this video, yours is less neutral. If the roles were reversed, everyone of the comments would be against him but due to the fact that it was a female committing the crime, the comments are more neutral.
Exactly, she made the call that she ‘accidentally’ shot him and she was still found not guilty? Bullsh**. Yes he could be abusive but she still shot him. She is guilty.
@@glentownsend4980the fact some thing couldnt even be published in the news shows how fucked up most of his texts were. nobody said he deserved to die bc of those texts, ur pulling that bs out ur ass
S Random The US justice system is crazy. So many killers walk free and innocent people go to jail. Also everyone and their mother has a gun. I'm so glad I don't live there or I'd be paranoid to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.
BOTTOM LINE. She just burned out like so many woman and men. There is some nasty mind fuking people. out there. i hope she is doing okay. pleaese do not get involved with any other men in a relationship and yes, when someone says they shot ...it can happen self defense
I was in a relationship with someone that made everyone believe I was doing things to him but he was extremely abusive to me but none of his friends took the time to hear me out because of the idea that he already put in their head
not to mention, if she shot him with her glock, they do not have a safety lock, they have a safety trigger so you REALLY have to pull the trigger on a glock to shoot it. that’s no accident.
Even just having her finger on the trigger in order to “accidentally” squeeze it, to me proves her intent to harm. Gun safety is never pointing a gun at someone unless you intend to shoot them, when you’re pointing a gun at someone with your finger on the trigger, it’s pretty obvious how that’s going to end.
@@ViolentNightshade Thank you. The VERY first safety rule you are taught surrounding firearms is that they are NEVER pointed at someone unless you intend to shoot. She would have known that. Guilty af.
@@ViolentNightshade I know nothing about guns, however your explanation makes, simple logic sense to me. Yes, she is guilty of pulling the trigger. In my moral book, I call an accident, when a glass slips off my hand and breaks
My past always clouds my judgement on these cases. As a domestic violence survivor, no matter how much I've healed, I feel like I'll always be like, "If it wasn't him, it would've been her.".
EMT here! We aren’t actually trained in what to do when it comes to ‘crime scenes’. We are just taught to remove danger quickly so we can approach and perform life saving treatment. It’s a very grey area unfortunately. We’d see it more as giving us and other members of the public safety by removing or moving a weapon
@@dillydawgdillon8912 keep in mind The boy was still alive at the time. The main thing they're concerned about preserving is that boy's life, not a crime scene.
@@dillydawgdillon8912 no. The police move them too. Victim’s safety and emergency first. It’s actually the first thing we are trained to do on scenes like this at the police department.
Either way, she took a life. And it wasn’t in self defense since he was sitting down. If that was my son, I would be absolutely devastated with the lack of justice.
I understand the other two, but where's the issue with hunting animals? I hunt. It's proven to be a quicker & more ethical death for the animal that any of the meat you buy from your grocery.
Peachy Queen I don’t know it she hunted for meat or ‘sport’ but even if it was to eat, why kill more innocent animals than what are already being killed in the meat industry? I’m English by the way so our attitude to hunting (and gun ownership) is very different to Americans..:
@@peachyqueen4399 Is something morally justified because it's a personal choice? If someone chooses to abuse a dog or a human, they've personally chosen to do that but it's not morally justified. What about the personal choice of the animals? They would never choose to be killed for us. They don't want to end up on our dinner plate. So what about their personal choice to not live a life of human-inflicted exploitation and death.
This story is so sad. This could have easily been my story. Toxic relationships are so twisted, confusing, and difficult. I'm so grateful I was able to get away from the toxic relationship i was in when i was younger. I was in a relationship where it started out with mild "back and forth" pettiness and it caused both of us to both become more toxic towards each other. I consider myself a pretty decent person over all, but its easy to become someone you dont even recognize under manipulative circumstances.
They were in an extremely toxic relationship, and I think she did kill him on purpose, but I don’t think there was enough proof. The shittiest type of case.
Sounds like they were in a terrible relationship. They were both wrong in their treatment of eachother. But she killed him. After threating to kill him multiple times. So.
@Mo Elm no one said that justifies murder. Just proves he was abusive as well as she was. She’s guilty of murder definitely, but he still was abusive. It’s not like he couldn’t have been abusive and been murdered in the same token.
@Mo Elm what the messages proved was that they were both at the very least verbally abusive to one another. Whether or not the abuse was actually physical we can’t know for sure.
@@dude7937 my mom used to work at an urgent care that did drug testing for the school district and other companies but they never had to drug test the bus drivers
If she claims he lunged at her when she shot when they proved he was sitting down when he was shot totally disproves self defense in that moment. Whether all the other stuff is true or not the moment he was shot he was sitting on his bed. That's murder not self defense.
Yep. Forensic evidence proved her story was false. You're on it Kristen LR ! I can't believe she got off. Definitely didn't seem like a healthy relationship either way but justice wasn't served.
Right ?! It’s legit one of the first couple rules in gun safety. One would think it’s common knowledge (and common sense lol) but I got in a dumbass argument with some popular model on Instagram that posted a bunch of videos and photos trying to be cool by pointing a loaded fucking gun at the cameraman. When I pointed out why it’s not safe to do so, she argued with me, tried to deny it when her cameraman had a literal picture of her pointing the gun directly at him, tried to sick her crew against me, and ofc ended up deleting all the comments; and I’m still salty about it because it’s so lame that someone is so delusional, surrounded by “yes men”, and has the narcissistic trait of never wanting to be wrong even when they’re provided with evidence disproving their argument 🤦♀️
In the 911 call, she says she "accidentally shot her boyfriend" and that she is "so sorry." How does one accidentally shoot someone if it's self-defense?
@@rootsm3 No, some of these stations just don't have the budget. That's just not how it works. There's an entire commissioning agency that decides where that money goes and sometimes the money just isn't there.
At the end of the day, we haven't seen all the evidence because over 60 pages of his text messages were so vulgar they couldn't be released to the public - that is *very* telling. I go back and forth because they *both* seem incredibly toxic, but she does seem like a victim of domestic abuse. I do think she should've at least been charged with manslaughter, but that's only from what we know about this case - which as we've seen, is very little. 🤷🏾♀️ Great video - loved that you put in more pics and video from the case. Your puppy is precious and you look gorgeous! Stay safe everyone.
I think she set him up. I also think she "sent" those messages from his phone so she can have an alibi and say he was abusive. Reminds me of a case where a woman did that.
@@lf9341 they don’t just bring screenshots in the courtroom and believe it’s real evidence. they check with the cell towers, the times, the dates, the locations, etc. they would’ve been able to tell if the texts were sent from her and if they had been deleted or not.

@@ljuben5738 It's easy to erase the messages after you hit send so he would not know it was from his phone. Just another perception. If you are capable of murder you are capable of anything psychotic.
Agreed. If she was a male she would have been charged and I say this as a female myself. Phil Spector rightfully went to prison despite claiming the shooting was all an accident because it was murder and it didn’t add up. Same should have applied to her.
I think she’s guilty, she pulled a gun on him a few times, so why would this last time be a “accident”? Yes the gun was messed with at the scene but there was proof that it was loaded after dinner and I’m sure they didn’t use that in the case even though it was messed with but still. And if she tracked him and was acting a psycho that night he died. I’ve seen domestic violence like that, there is no “accident” in domestic violence
Man, if you have a man go to his guy friends and tell them all he's being abused, then something serious is going on. Because unfortunately of how masculinity is viewed, many men will hide that.
The text messages he sent to her are terrifying and some of the people in the comments are sympathizing too much with him. He was a dirt bag. She was also terrible and definitely shouldn’t have killed him but good lord.
I agree, those messages are incredibly disturbuing, and are not the same as "reacting out of anger/hurt." It's just as disgusting as when the girl said "he pushed her to overreact". They are both abusive.

I genuinely can’t comprehend how people still try to use the “accidental trigger” excuse. This is not the movies nor is it a Hollywood TV series, there’s a pressure value that has to be met for the trigger to pull. Pounds of pressure.
This is totally not related to the case at all, but Kendall your hair looks so pretty in this video. I need to figure out how to get those curls. Now back to the story.
Curling irons etc fry your hair & make the ends frizzy & damaged. Use heated rollers . Or, put in foam rollers on nearly dry hair & leave for 1hour minimum. Your hairs condition will improve noticeably.

😆😂😆. That's crazy talk. I've watched hundreds of these type of videos and this is the worst case of injustice ive come across. The other day a police officer killed a women and got 7 t 10 years. I thought that was terrible. This is worse
I dated someone that was extremely toxic and pushed me to the edge all the time. He made me look like a crazy jealous person to his friends and family. I’m not saying she wasn’t guilty but he probably drove her crazy! We never know what happens behind closed doors
And he was toxic because she cheated on him. Not saying his actions were justified but comparing her to a dead fish when she had cheated does not justify MURDER. I wish that confession hadn’t been corrupted
It’s because there was evidence of him being abusive, and she was claiming self defense and there wasn’t enough evidence beyond a reasonable doubt so the jury ruled in favor of self defense
This was definitely a mutually abusive relationship, but I absolutely think she shot him on purpose. The man still died, to get away with no chargers at all blows my mind.
I don’t think it was on purpose I think she did it out of anger and didn’t think at all, and just saw red. Cause I have been in that place myself where I would want to hurt my ex/bf really bad because of how he treated me sometimes

I live in Georgia. We own many guns. You don’t “accidentally” shoot someone when you’re supposed to be an expert gun owner. And usually gun owners ALWAYS have a loaded gun nearby bc it’s for protection. If someone breaks in you don’t have time to get a gun out of a safe, then load it, then protect yourself... no. Idk man.

I’ve been in an abusive marriage with a narcissist that constantly gaslighted me and broke me down but came off as the nicest man in the world. It cause a toxic co-dependency with the abuser, cant stand the abuse but can’t be without the abuser. Also, victims of violent sexual acts often use graphic pornography and fantasies to help dissociate the actual events they suffered.
Ignoring the fact she chased him in her car, so she was looking up violent adult content to "please" him the same night she planned to break up with him? Too many contradictions.
It’s not contradictory at all, she was clearly being abused but couldn’t leave him and he clearly couldn’t leave her either even though he didn’t want to be with her. She made him his favourite dinner to make him happy, she even was going to go out of her way to let him abuse her sexually to make him happy.. this is what happens when you’re being abused.
@@angiecats5298 as someone who has been in an abusive relationship and got out, I can tell you that what you described is not always how it is. Some domestic abuse victims do get out and live relatively healthy lives, some turn into murderers, and others turn into the victims of murder. It's not clear cut across the board. Also, in my opinion the story was extremely contradictory given she was chasing him and his friend down in a vehicle, yet was so terrified of him and was breaking up with him that night. The original call said "I accidentally shot my boyfriend" as well, and it was only changed to self defense after her defense team knew that her confession tape was not usable. At the point where a life was taken and there was that much evidence but the nail in the coffin was not usable I get why the jurors made the decision they made. Unfortunately that family doesn't get justice for an obvious murder because of the failures of first responders and the interrogation team. Justice was not served and she should consider herself lucky to have had that evidence be screwed up because that would have landed her in jail had they not screwed it up.
@@carriecagnon411 As someone who has also been in an abusive relationship, I don't think it's contradictory at all. Some abusive relationships can make the abused person become extremely toxic as well as it gives them some semblance of control in the relationship.
I can’t believe this she was so guilty, she said on the 911 call that it was an accident, but then claimed self defense, why wouldn’t she have said that she shot him in self defense on the phone with 911 operators
@@buttcheeksunite theres witnesses she was the abuser towards him but why are u taking her word only she has no witnesses and used that defense to get away with murder
He was literally sitting on the edge of the bed when she shot him so how tf was he apparently “lunging” at him?! This case makes me so angry. I do believe he was abusive but she was too. It was a very toxic relationship. He didn’t deserve to die though. Like if it’s THAT bad and you’re so scared that you have to pull a gun on him multiple times, why was she always making him come home and not letting him break up with her?
Agreed. It’s not an excuse to kill someone. However...this level of toxicity leads to tragic and terrible outcomes. The things we say to one another can have devastating results. This Was the culmination. I’m so sad for his family. I don’t think she should have gotten off entirely. There was at the very least a case for manslaughter. I have seen women who have documented cases of savage abuse from their partners, clear cases of self defense and they were still charged with murder and given hefty jail sentences. It’s all terrible. I wish couples could take the hint that HEY! We don’t bring out anything good in each other. Let’s get out of this before someone gets truly hurt....wishful thinking for a more perfect world. Sad.
Absolutely! The neighbors across from me were in one. They attacked each other physically, not in self-defense, and would threaten each other. They are horrifying relationships to witness. There is no side you can take. Two toxic and abusive people fighting for power.
@@KayCeeTX21 unfortunately these kinds of relationships leave both people feeling trapped just not in the same way as one-way abusive relationships. When both are abusive, each one wants to get the last word and have the “power” in the relationship. The anger can turn into complete obsession. It’s scary as hell to witness. My neighbors have come close to killing each other and the police tried so hard but they couldn’t keep them away from each other
I love Kendall too!! If you like true crime you should look up Christina Randall. Her introduction is a bit off putting at first but after three or four videos in you're like saying it with her like it's a catchy tune ha!
"Mary loved animals (she once tied a shoelace to a frog and forced it around the neighborhood...) and she loved to hunt animals" I already am suspicious of and not liking Mary. 2:21 in
so true! I'm sure the frog loved being walked around the neighbourhood on a leash. They didn't mention it died, which would be highly likely since frogs shouldn't really be over handled.
@@a2point083 I mean obviously otherwise this comment would be under that post. Did you wake up and chose to try and start an argument over the internet because I was literally making a comment based on the lowkey bias I felt from the jury in agreement with the statement the person who’s comment I commented on. Duh.
@@lilgass7648 The unfortunate thing is if he was still alive he'd possibly get more ridicule than Mary and be treated as the villian despite there being more evidence toward her being the aggressor I've seen too many stories where this happens to Men who are accused of rape and or abuse the most recent example that comes to mind is Johnny Depp.
I think the forensic evidence showing that she lied about him lunging toward her is enough to negate the entire story that she shot him in self defense. If she pointed guns at him in the past, and in the incident where he died, he was still on the corner of the bed when she shot him, she couldn’t have feared for her safety. That being said, I do take issue with the comment in this video that a survivor of sexual violence would not look up sexually violent videos on the internet. Not everyone reacts to trauma in the same way. Sometimes exposing yourself to that stuff gives you a sense of desensitization and control over what happened to you. I’m not saying it’s a healthy coping mechanism, but it is one that exists for some people.
I agree, I think they abused each other and he was better at hiding the abuse he did. But I also agree that victims react differently, I have two friends that have been raped by people they knew and they both tried to reconnect with the rapists and have a "rego" over the sexual encounter because they didn't want to feel like victims and wanted to change the memory of the event, the one friend even tried killing herself afterwards and although she's doing better years later, it still has a bad effect on her to this day.
I agree with the last thing you said, everyone deals with trauma differently and some completely different from most people, I know it’s hard for people to believe how people cope with things but I don’t feel like people actually understand that not everyone reacts to trauma the same way. She may also have tried to get back at him by stalking him and screaming at him to get back home or something idk
Yeah it seemed really problematic to say she never would have looked at that stuff. Even if it’s not likely, talking about it in absolutes is crazy to me

It seemed to be very toxic for both of them... the abuse was mutual... so my question is this... Had it been the other way around, and MK was killed... with the same exact evidence and no confession... and a self defense claim on his part... do you believe that he would have been found not guilty as well?? 🤔 I think he would be found guilty of first degree murder under the same exact circumstances... so because she is a woman, she is able to claim victim??

Now this is just from my personal experience from being in a DV relationship. As a victim we know we can't fight back or anything in private. So in public it looks as if we're the mean one. But really we're just showing all the built up emotions. I also never spoke to anyone about it. But he constantly talked about me to try to make me look bad or like I deserved it. And I also have went looking for him to come home. They break down your soul and who you are as a person, you depend on them to live. Because they make you believe it. My abuser ended up I prison for being a habitual offender. Who knows what really went on with them though. @Kendall Rae
This. They make you this horrible crazy abuser when they brought you to that point.
Yes.. when I was listening to this it hit home. I would react more in public because it is almost safer? And yes they know exactly how to trigger the response they want out of you so you look like you are unstable. And even though you want to leave if you’re trauma bonded then you feel like you’re dying without them. It’s a very hard situation for outside people to understand but psychologically your abuser is also the person who comforts you so it makes you feel like you need to be with them to survive. It is just a very sad situation for all of the families involved.
I did not know that it was a normal part of the DV timeline of abuse to make the victim seem like the one abusing………….That’s where I’m at in the timeline now. 😢💔
I have called back to back like that too and blown up texts….I even called his mom (asking for advice and wisdom…not to stalk the man. To be clear.) all of that because the last thing he said to me before he left, whispering under his breath…was something like: You’re daughter is f*+\# bc of you. I feel sorry for her with you as her mom.
I would never, ever harm him or anyone physically. I’m getting out. I am just thinking, why was he so vocal about her hitting him or being crazy? I AM a victim. It’s humiliating to tell others, it’s hard, it’s not like I vent and complain openly that he’s this psycho. I say to everyone he’s going through some hard stuff, but he’s a good person. He just needs help.
No ONE, no one should be harmed physically. And it’s heart breaking the young man’s life was stolen from him. Again - it is NOT ok to harm anyone, if there was abuse - he did NOT deserve this. If this wasn’t abuse - he did NOT deserve this. So it’s irrelevant really. Just hurts the family overall. So sorry for the young man @ his family. 🤍
People have no idea what goes on behind closed doors
Agreed. My ex was extremely manipulative and a total narcissist. He had everyone convinced I was horrible and abusive to him "behind closed doors" and he would push me and push me and any reactive abuse I had in public he would be like "SEE SHE'S CRAZY?" And then when we got home he'd verbally and mentally assault me, throw things at me or just past me, punch holes in walls, hurt himself to "not hurt me" and threaten me physically. I got out before it escalated any further. I do not think it was right for her to kill him, but it may have truly been in self-defense. It's definitely not something people outside of DV can understand. Your abuser will 100% turn the world against you so no one will ever believe you and paint you as the villain so you are completely ostracized and alone without them. Like forced co-dependency.
Honestly...first red flag..."they dated on and off for 7 years"
I thought the same.
Lol yup
Definitely.
lol right??
666 likes I made it 667 no bad luck.💜
She did kill him, So therefore she should AT LEAST get a smaller punishment, and not go completely free from all charges.
I agree. Sounds like the state should have charged her with a lesser charge like man slaughter or something that fits the crime just to a lesser degree than the original charges. If that makes sense. Maybe she wouldn’t have gotten off free as a bird. Definitely deserved to go to prison for this.
@@Crayola.n Yeah a lot of times the prosecution doesn’t want to charge with the lesser offense because they are afraid the jury will go with that instead of charging them with straight up murder. But that’s always a risky move because then you have situations that turn out like this.. Where because there wasn’t a lesser offense to charge her with she just gets off with not guilty and no punishment. Should have added some lesser charges for sure!
They didn’t charge her with a lesser crime so she couldn’t be found guilty of anything less than murder.
And why would she casually “toss” a gun to him during a fight.... who even casually tosses a gun anyway

@@Maya-dw5jz right...she’s edited it in her mind(several times) depending on who she’s speaking with to create a more suitable narrative for this outcome, getting away with it.

@@VLM1313 I think it may also be with how the information given is seen as like the first statement she gave they didn't believe her so she tried to change it into something believable but again it didn't work.

She should have been convicted becsuse she did murder someone whether or not a mistake or with intention.
Trauma can really distort memory actually
She grew up around guns, worked in a gun store, and she "accidentally" shot him while passing it over? Yeah, okay.
I'm sure she was terrified to admit she did it. Fear can make you do and say some crazy shit. Not saying she's innocent.. I think they were both toxic to one another and since they didn't separate, it could have been a toss up over who ended up dead.
@@Ellie_baby not really. He was trying to get away from her. He was at a friends house the night if his death and she followed and chased him until she made him come over to the house to eat.

Abusive as he was I 100% think it was a reaction to how she was and he wouldn’t have done shit but leave her as he was trying to do.
@@DasnotCool I was in a situation, wow, almost a year ago now where my ex would CLAIM that he was trying to avoid me. It was weird because I knew we had our problems, but I slowly started to see his friends and relatives treat me very coldly. It wasn’t until I became close with one of his friends that I got told what was being said about me. When I confronted him about it, (around the beginning of Covid), he went to work and took my set of keys and my phone so I couldn’t leave. The doors on our unit locked automatically after they close so he did this knowing that I’d have no way to get back to my belongings or my pets if I chose to leave and no transportation or way to call a friend.
It was bizarre because for months he pretended I was stalking him, pressuring him to stay with me or being some other shade of unreasonable when in reality I desperately wanted to return to my old apartment complex and live peacefully but feared he would hurt my pets or destroy my belongings in the transition.
People can really lie hard.

I don’t think this was planned though, they would’ve been able to see if it was, I mean it’s possible it was planned and nobody knows forsure, but I feel like she would’ve slipped up and they would’ve found evidence of her searching things up on her phone/computer, buying things to plan the murder, actual proof of the messages being sent by her, etc. who knows though, maybe she hid it well and got away with it.

My thoughts exactly. This case screams reactive abuse, which also makes sense for why she caved when the detective was yelling and cussing at her.
I agree with you 100%. He sounds like a narcissist, so of course he would’ve always been playing the victim while smearing her name. Just the wording she used describing everything made me think “reactive abuse!” Honestly, not an excuse to take a life, but I believe self defense.
Even if the audio wasn’t ruined, she could have said that it was a false confession
Exactly.
From a year earlier after she banged another guy…nah. The forensics showed she loaded the gun and shot him while he was seated.
They were both abusive towards eachother, but she definitely shot him on purpose
I agree. I was in an abusive marriage for 27 years and he would be the hands on abuser and me the voice. When you are in a toxic relationship your nerves and temper and control can make you do things you normally wouldn't do. You feel like you can't live without them. That no one would want you and you wouldn't be happy with no one else. When it's good it's good but when it's bad it's bad and someone always makes the decision to take the bad one step further. There is always a breaking point ALWAYS.
Thing is the truth might be somewhere in the middle. The girlfriend suffered from a traumatic experience this altered her perception of a health relationship is. The mother comments about her sin being afraid that the girlfriend would commit suicide can be used as proof on what might have happened in the end.
Agreed but everyone has a limit and the gun should of been removed from the house.
Yet who started the abuse?
They seem happy how sad. Makes me wonder how many people who seem happy are actually crazy
She’s guilty. Not enough evidence to prove it wasn’t self defense though.
Her simply lying about how she did it was enough thought and tying to play the sad scared girlfriend who “accidentally “ killed their boyfriend on the 911 call (knowing she was drunk or drinking and she probably killed him out of anger especially if they were arguing which can be proved and boom the motive is there and tbh it’s obvious) etc if it was a domestic violence situation and
She was at risk or getting beat or something the cops would know she would’ve said that first on the 911 call too.
I just got further in a video more motive he was gonna leave her ass as he should tbh
And there’s proof she’s pulled a gun on him before just for a fight this time it just so happened that she killed him. Ik you can’t be re trialed for the same crime buttt shiiitt she needs to be cause she probably gonna do it again .
I agree
He was sitting u armed on a bed when shot. All the proof needed right there
They had all the evidence for how many times she would change her story, and evidence that he was just sitting when she killed him. All evidence that she went after him but NOT GUILTY. I really don’t understand the word no enough evidence.
Nailed it. I'm fairly certain she's guilty, but not "beyond a reasonable doubt." Pretty damn close, though.
I believe he could be abusive, those text messages show that. But in that moment when she shot him, it was solely her killing him out of anger. She got so lucky those cops fucked up with the audio, oh my god. She was guilty.
It seems to me that they had some type of BDSM relationship and a lot of his texts seemed more like dom/sub consensual roleplay

I agree that she was guilty. The grease on the gun proves that she was ready and willing to use it. Unlike most of the other comments on this video, yours is less neutral. If the roles were reversed, everyone of the comments would be against him but due to the fact that it was a female committing the crime, the comments are more neutral.
Exactly, she made the call that she ‘accidentally’ shot him and she was still found not guilty? Bullsh**. Yes he could be abusive but she still shot him. She is guilty.

Even just having her finger on the trigger in order to “accidentally” squeeze it, to me proves her intent to harm. Gun safety is never pointing a gun at someone unless you intend to shoot them, when you’re pointing a gun at someone with your finger on the trigger, it’s pretty obvious how that’s going to end.

‘She was an animal lover’
Also dragged a frog around with a shoelace, hunted animals, and police were involved with animal cases
Okayyy
I understand the other two, but where's the issue with hunting animals? I hunt. It's proven to be a quicker & more ethical death for the animal that any of the meat you buy from your grocery.
Peachy Queen I don’t know it she hunted for meat or ‘sport’ but even if it was to eat, why kill more innocent animals than what are already being killed in the meat industry? I’m English by the way so our attitude to hunting (and gun ownership) is very different to Americans..:

So what about their personal choice to not live a life of human-inflicted exploitation and death.
She’s guilty. She made him come home, and he was sitting when she shot him. If he abused her, why did she go and make him come home?
Exactly, that was some jury
Sooo pissed at the jurors.
That's an excellent question. Absolutely ridiculous that she got away with this.
Yeah she's the murderer
She could of been pushed to that moment
This story is so sad. This could have easily been my story. Toxic relationships are so twisted, confusing, and difficult. I'm so grateful I was able to get away from the toxic relationship i was in when i was younger. I was in a relationship where it started out with mild "back and forth" pettiness and it caused both of us to both become more toxic towards each other. I consider myself a pretty decent person over all, but its easy to become someone you dont even recognize under manipulative circumstances.
They were in an extremely toxic relationship, and I think she did kill him on purpose, but I don’t think there was enough proof. The shittiest type of case.
I agree
Cops definitely screwed up not getting her confession recorded.
I agree. But I think she should've been sentenced to jail at least 3 years.
Sounds like they were in a terrible relationship. They were both wrong in their treatment of eachother.
But she killed him. After threating to kill him multiple times.
So.
@Mo Elm the text messages
@Mo Elm stop trying to sound objective or play them down. those texts proved some abuse on his end. i
@Mo Elm no one said that justifies murder. Just proves he was abusive as well as she was. She’s guilty of murder definitely, but he still was abusive. It’s not like he couldn’t have been abusive and been murdered in the same token.
@Mo Elm what the messages proved was that they were both at the very least verbally abusive to one another. Whether or not the abuse was actually physical we can’t know for sure.
the fact that she was able to work with children as a teacher assistant terrifies me
Ikr. Her way of being reminds me of someone that acts like her.
As a former teachers assistant they didn’t drug test any teachers or assistants in my district. Let’s alone do a psych evaluation. They’re desperate.
@@dude7937 my mom used to work at an urgent care that did drug testing for the school district and other companies but they never had to drug test the bus drivers

if my son wrote me that note i would cry my eyes out 😭😭 that man was born with a pure heart
If she claims he lunged at her when she shot when they proved he was sitting down when he was shot totally disproves self defense in that moment. Whether all the other stuff is true or not the moment he was shot he was sitting on his bed. That's murder not self defense.
100%
THIS!!
100% the rest of it didn't matter, it's what she did in that moment
Yep. Forensic evidence proved her story was false. You're on it Kristen LR ! I can't believe she got off. Definitely didn't seem like a healthy relationship either way but justice wasn't served.
Rule one: Treat every firearm as if it’s loaded with one in the chamber.
yeah and if she’s so into guns and “knows everything” then why wouldn’t she know the literal most important rule i’ve known since i could talk
Right ?! It’s legit one of the first couple rules in gun safety. One would think it’s common knowledge (and common sense lol) but I got in a dumbass argument with some popular model on Instagram that posted a bunch of videos and photos trying to be cool by pointing a loaded fucking gun at the cameraman. When I pointed out why it’s not safe to do so, she argued with me, tried to deny it when her cameraman had a literal picture of her pointing the gun directly at him, tried to sick her crew against me, and ofc ended up deleting all the comments; and I’m still salty about it because it’s so lame that someone is so delusional, surrounded by “yes men”, and has the narcissistic trait of never wanting to be wrong even when they’re provided with evidence disproving their argument 🤦♀️
Once you are 100% sure the gun is empty then you still don’t point it ever!!!!!
@@tsmith3286 exactly, unless you’re okay with murdering whoever you point it at 🥴
This. Also, most sensible people would check the safety is on before handing one over if its not an emergency
In the 911 call, she says she "accidentally shot her boyfriend" and that she is "so sorry." How does one accidentally shoot someone if it's self-defense?
Dont you just hate when that happens to you all the time. I do. It such a drag.
She said "accidentally shot him in the neck"... maybe shooting him in the neck was the accident part.. maybe she was going for his arm
He was sitting down on a bed so I don’t know what she’d be defending herself from
I believe she is guilty, my heart breaks for Steven's family! She got away with murder!
Crazy to me how police stations don't have the best of the best when it comes to video and audio equipment. These confession videos should be in HD.
Griffin GA is a tiiiny ass town, i’d be surprised if they’re not still recording on tapes
They blow so much money on these souped up Ford Chargers I’m sure they totally disregard their AV systems.
Well judging by your health care system it is a third world country.
go pro police confessions
@@rootsm3 No, some of these stations just don't have the budget. That's just not how it works. There's an entire commissioning agency that decides where that money goes and sometimes the money just isn't there.
At the end of the day, we haven't seen all the evidence because over 60 pages of his text messages were so vulgar they couldn't be released to the public - that is *very* telling. I go back and forth because they *both* seem incredibly toxic, but she does seem like a victim of domestic abuse. I do think she should've at least been charged with manslaughter, but that's only from what we know about this case - which as we've seen, is very little. 🤷🏾♀️ Great video - loved that you put in more pics and video from the case. Your puppy is precious and you look gorgeous! Stay safe everyone.
I think she set him up. I also think she "sent" those messages from his phone so she can have an alibi and say he was abusive. Reminds me of a case where a woman did that.
@@lf9341 they don’t just bring screenshots in the courtroom and believe it’s real evidence. they check with the cell towers, the times, the dates, the locations, etc. they would’ve been able to tell if the texts were sent from her and if they had been deleted or not.

@@lf9341 So you think for an entire year before the murder she kept sending such messages from his phone to set up her story so far ahead in advance? And he never noticed those messages on his own phone?
@@ljuben5738 It's easy to erase the messages after you hit send so he would not know it was from his phone. Just another perception. If you are capable of murder you are capable of anything psychotic.
I know right. We should all murder people who send us vulgar texts
I think it’s bs she didn’t get charged. She shot him. Ended his life. I feel for his family I really do
Agreed. If she was a male she would have been charged and I say this as a female myself. Phil Spector rightfully went to prison despite claiming the shooting was all an accident because it was murder and it didn’t add up. Same should have applied to her.
@@xosecox12 agreed 🙌🏼
The truth never changes but a liar changes their story so many times. She did it. Ugh I hate this.
Can't imagine how his mom feels for telling this girl his son's location...
Oh my goodness, I didn't even think of that 😢
I think she’s guilty, she pulled a gun on him a few times, so why would this last time be a “accident”? Yes the gun was messed with at the scene but there was proof that it was loaded after dinner and I’m sure they didn’t use that in the case even though it was messed with but still. And if she tracked him and was acting a psycho that night he died. I’ve seen domestic violence like that, there is no “accident” in domestic violence
The dogs sleeping in the background is such a plus to this channel he’s so calm😭😭😍
Laura Jimenez and super cute
The friends testimony about the victim can't be taken 100% to heart because a man with his male friends isn't the same with his gf
Man, if you have a man go to his guy friends and tell them all he's being abused, then something serious is going on. Because unfortunately of how masculinity is viewed, many men will hide that.
FACTS
💯
The text messages he sent to her are terrifying and some of the people in the comments are sympathizing too much with him. He was a dirt bag. She was also terrible and definitely shouldn’t have killed him but good lord.
I agree, those messages are incredibly disturbuing, and are not the same as "reacting out of anger/hurt." It's just as disgusting as when the girl said "he pushed her to overreact". They are both abusive.
I agree
Maybe she sent them from his phone to herself? Kind of like that crazy lady who was sending her bf and herself messages.......she could have sent them and then deleted them from his phone so when she was planning on killing him it would be "proof".
@@lf9341 they don’t just bring screenshots in the courtroom and believe it’s real evidence. they check with the cell towers, the times, the dates, the locations, etc. they would’ve been able to tell if the texts were sent from her and if they had been deleted or not.

I genuinely can’t comprehend how people still try to use the “accidental trigger” excuse. This is not the movies nor is it a Hollywood TV series, there’s a pressure value that has to be met for the trigger to pull. Pounds of pressure.
literally!!! guns don’t ever go off for no reason, even if you drop it guns are manufactured to not go off-
Totally guilty, but they tampered with evidence and messed up the confession so the jury made the right call.
This is totally not related to the case at all, but Kendall your hair looks so pretty in this video. I need to figure out how to get those curls. Now back to the story.
try a big barrel curling iron..... for really tight curls i use a wand... but these curls are pretty loose
I use a curling wand, spray my hair with hairspray, and then brush all the curls out! I think a big barrel curling iron would work well too
I was going to comment the same thing. Her hair looks so dang good in this video.
Curling irons etc fry your hair & make the ends frizzy & damaged. Use heated rollers . Or, put in foam rollers on nearly dry hair & leave for 1hour minimum. Your hairs condition will improve noticeably.
And.... The green top coordinates with the wall color!!! Regarding the case, she's guilty AF!!!!-
I think she’s guilty because why would she change her story SO MANY TIMES and I don’t believe it was self-defense they should have charged her with something. Who’s to say she won’t do it again?
@@DarkAngel71180 First of all I never disrespected you in anyway so please watch your mouth and second of all I know that when it is self defense they don’t charge the victim which is why I said that I didn’t believe it was self defense
i feel like she's guilty but i'm not seeing enough evidence to convict. And how do they not have a back up recording?!?!
😆😂😆. That's crazy talk. I've watched hundreds of these type of videos and this is the worst case of injustice ive come across. The other day a police officer killed a women and got 7 t 10 years. I thought that was terrible. This is worse
I dated someone that was extremely toxic and pushed me to the edge all the time. He made me look like a crazy jealous person to his friends and family. I’m not saying she wasn’t guilty but he probably drove her crazy! We never know what happens behind closed doors
i love how her pets are just chilling in the background. They're adorable.
IKR!! You can tell they’re so loved, they just lounge around so cozy lookin. 😭
Granted, he was toxic too - BUT SHE KILLED HIM - KILLED HIM and she's let off the hook????
RIGHT!!!!!! Wtfffffff
Not only that. She chased him down and killed him
And he was toxic because she cheated on him. Not saying his actions were justified but comparing her to a dead fish when she had cheated does not justify MURDER. I wish that confession hadn’t been corrupted
Regardless if it was an "accident" she was angry.. and shot him. Guilty.
Right
THIS
Its cases by cases if were talking about accident. but in this one so many evidence point to her as being guilty
It’s because there was evidence of him being abusive, and she was claiming self defense and there wasn’t enough evidence beyond a reasonable doubt so the jury ruled in favor of self defense
New to your Channel and I can’t get enough!! I’ve been on light duty at work working alone and I put on your videos on all day.
This was definitely a mutually abusive relationship, but I absolutely think she shot him on purpose. The man still died, to get away with no chargers at all blows my mind.

They were both very toxic. But still...Whenever there's a case like this, where domestic violence is involved, it is hard for me to come to a conclusion. What I can say for certain though, is that changing the story 10 times, is very suspicious 🤷
I live in Georgia. We own many guns. You don’t “accidentally” shoot someone when you’re supposed to be an expert gun owner. And usually gun owners ALWAYS have a loaded gun nearby bc it’s for protection. If someone breaks in you don’t have time to get a gun out of a safe, then load it, then protect yourself... no. Idk man. It sucks.
I'm from Georgia too! Us folks here in the South know our guns
I thought the exact same thought! How tf would you accidentally pull a trigger?! Stuff like this just doesn't happen. Guns don’t shoot people on their own. Other people do.
+ you ALWAYS check if the gun is loaded or not if you are handling it to someone... that’s gun safety 101.
There seems to be a lot of accidental shootings in the US. Never happens in the UK as most people do not own a gun.
@@susiefoxy8130 There are 4 rules of gun ownership that responsible gun owners abide by. You have them in your head AT ALL TIMES because guns aren’t toys, they’re for safety.
This whole story is... off.
I’ve been in an abusive marriage with a narcissist that constantly gaslighted me and broke me down but came off as the nicest man in the world. It cause a toxic co-dependency with the abuser, cant stand the abuse but can’t be without the abuser. Also, victims of violent sexual acts often use graphic pornography and fantasies to help dissociate the actual events they suffered.
Ignoring the fact she chased him in her car, so she was looking up violent adult content to "please" him the same night she planned to break up with him? Too many contradictions.
Exactly
And made him a whole entire dinner? Was she gonna break up with during dinner?
It’s not contradictory at all, she was clearly being abused but couldn’t leave him and he clearly couldn’t leave her either even though he didn’t want to be with her. She made him his favourite dinner to make him happy, she even was going to go out of her way to let him abuse her sexually to make him happy.. this is what happens when you’re being abused.
@@angiecats5298 as someone who has been in an abusive relationship and got out, I can tell you that what you described is not always how it is. Some domestic abuse victims do get out and live relatively healthy lives, some turn into murderers, and others turn into the victims of murder. It's not clear cut across the board. Also, in my opinion the story was extremely contradictory given she was chasing him and his friend down in a vehicle, yet was so terrified of him and was breaking up with him that night. The original call said "I accidentally shot my boyfriend" as well, and it was only changed to self defense after her defense team knew that her confession tape was not usable. At the point where a life was taken and there was that much evidence but the nail in the coffin was not usable I get why the jurors made the decision they made. Unfortunately that family doesn't get justice for an obvious murder because of the failures of first responders and the interrogation team. Justice was not served and she should consider herself lucky to have had that evidence be screwed up because that would have landed her in jail had they not screwed it up.
@@carriecagnon411 As someone who has also been in an abusive relationship, I don't think it's contradictory at all. Some abusive relationships can make the abused person become extremely toxic as well as it gives them some semblance of control in the relationship.

He was literally sitting on the edge of the bed when she shot him so how tf was he apparently “lunging” at him?! This case makes me so angry. I do believe he was abusive but she was too. It was a very toxic relationship. He didn’t deserve to die though. Like if it’s THAT bad and you’re so scared that you have to pull a gun on him multiple times, why was she always making him come home and not letting him break up with her?
There IS such a thing as a mutually abusive relationships and this seems like one.
They both clearly brought the very worst out of each other x
Agreed. It’s not an excuse to kill someone. However...this level of toxicity leads to tragic and terrible outcomes. The things we say to one another can have devastating results. This Was the culmination. I’m so sad for his family. I don’t think she should have gotten off entirely. There was at the very least a case for manslaughter. I have seen women who have documented cases of savage abuse from their partners, clear cases of self defense and they were still charged with murder and given hefty jail sentences. It’s all terrible. I wish couples could take the hint that HEY! We don’t bring out anything good in each other. Let’s get out of this before someone gets truly hurt....wishful thinking for a more perfect world. Sad.
Absolutely! The neighbors across from me were in one. They attacked each other physically, not in self-defense, and would threaten each other. They are horrifying relationships to witness. There is no side you can take. Two toxic and abusive people fighting for power.
@@KayCeeTX21 unfortunately these kinds of relationships leave both people feeling trapped just not in the same way as one-way abusive relationships. When both are abusive, each one wants to get the last word and have the “power” in the relationship. The anger can turn into complete obsession. It’s scary as hell to witness. My neighbors have come close to killing each other and the police tried so hard but they couldn’t keep them away from each other

@@lilgass7648 well no shit stop with the boy and girl battle bullshit
I think the forensic evidence showing that she lied about him lunging toward her is enough to negate the entire story that she shot him in self defense. If she pointed guns at him in the past, and in the incident where he died, he was still on the corner of the bed when she shot him, she couldn’t have feared for her safety.
That being said, I do take issue with the comment in this video that a survivor of sexual violence would not look up sexually violent videos on the internet. Not everyone reacts to trauma in the same way. Sometimes exposing yourself to that stuff gives you a sense of desensitization and control over what happened to you. I’m not saying it’s a healthy coping mechanism, but it is one that exists for some people.
I agree, I think they abused each other and he was better at hiding the abuse he did.
But I also agree that victims react differently, I have two friends that have been raped by people they knew and they both tried to reconnect with the rapists and have a "rego" over the sexual encounter because they didn't want to feel like victims and wanted to change the memory of the event, the one friend even tried killing herself afterwards and although she's doing better years later, it still has a bad effect on her to this day.
I agree with the last thing you said, everyone deals with trauma differently and some completely different from most people, I know it’s hard for people to believe how people cope with things but I don’t feel like people actually understand that not everyone reacts to trauma the same way. She may also have tried to get back at him by stalking him and screaming at him to get back home or something idk
Good old Spalding county... I'm so happy I moved out of Griffin
Yeah it seemed really problematic to say she never would have looked at that stuff. Even if it’s not likely, talking about it in absolutes is crazy to me
