Exactly, why run if an accident. Run away from your children for an accident? No, she turned him down, and in a road rage, the big man put his hands on that petite woman (real tough guy) I hope he rots in prison. Shame on any lawyer defending him, especially pushing such a BS story.
@bigdadgigachad3042 .... EXACTLY!! And because your comment is so true, I want to say that you meant roid rage and not road rage... darn auto correct! People definitely need to know how real and dangerous roid rage is! Steroids are no joke!
I agree he’s vile, but I disagree on your view of the lawyer. We all have a right for a defense. The man is working and making a living. He didn’t maul that poor woman.
I think there’s been a few cases involving steroids. One in 2018 in Florida the judge allowed the defendant to use “roid rage” as a defense. Another more popular case was that Olympic athlete Oscar Pistoris. The judge let them use it as a defense but I think in both cases the jury didn’t buy it. When someone willingly takes something it’s not a get out of jail free card. He took it knowing the risks and what it could make him do, the same way a drunk driver is responsible basically. I say let him use it, if that’s all he’s got he’s screwed. It will be a quick trial.

❤❤ all the love to her mom!! She's a Strong strong woman!! Josephine has used her grief to help other families she's amazing ❤❤Kind of reminds me of the Walsh family. Rest in peace Crystal
This woman is unstoppable and inspiring! I'd like to think that i could do what she did and idk if I could but I know i would try. I feel terrible for her family, they lost a beautiful daughter and mother.
So incredibly sad, I’m sorry for your loss. Josephine you’re amazing! I’m going to get your book. Your determination and persistence is powerful and inspiring. Thank you for you! ❤
That guy is a monster, but Drew didn’t say his defense was an absolute. He said it’s possible. It is possible, but not in this case. This loser bludgeoned that poor girl.
He took advantage of her. He knew she was dealing with a stalker ex so he swooped in and told her he’d protect her etc. Her mind was preoccupied with trying to protect herself from her stalker ex.
Prison is worse in El Salvador they should just keep him down there!!! Lights on 24/7, no pillows, no mattresses, no private cells, no visitors, no commissary, simple meals rice and beans no meat, no utensils. Keep him in El Salvador!!!
What a brave and strong woman!!! This story brought me to tears. I'm in a bad situation right now, and I'm unsure about my future, but this woman inspired me somehow.
Geez....that has to be one of the most unbalanced side-by-side pictures - she is beautiful and happy looking, and he looks like a psychopath. Why was she dating this guy?!? I'm guessing "roid rage" might have factored in to this killing. Oh yeah - look at his stomach at 4:36 - looks like he was roiding up. She probably assumed because he was a dad and a vet that he could be trusted, but not every soldier is a noble, selfless defender, some are just psychopaths with fewer opportunities who like to kill people. RIP - she deserved far better.
I know it’s so weird. They look odd together. Unfortunately I think the “tough marine” image was her type. I feel terrible for her children. I hope at least the father in involved.
it takes a truly amazing person to recognize they've been through a highly unique sort of trauma event that doesn't have resources connected to it, and then taking all the lived experience and hard work they had to do in order to get justice or results for themselves, and becoming an advocate and teacher for others who end up in a similar situation. Seeing a need where there's a gap in resources and taking the initiative to fill it out of a sense of moral obligation and empathy 💛 heart of gold
Wow shes a super mom like this could be a movie and i believe this story has already been a plot point in some. Shame she lost her daughter RIP🕊🕊🕊🕊 This reminded me of that mother that went around executing carterl members responsible for her daughters death😢😢😢😞😞😞
So only guys with muscles kill their partners?, because if that were true, then women all over the world would be 100% safer. They would all just avoid men with muscle and avoid death. But you know it's not that simple. I guess you saw the killer, a man with more muscle than you probably, and thought, well, she probably picked him over me because of his muscles, because that's what all the women you have wanted has done. Why else didn't she/they pick me?. Because to you men it's all about the competition with other men. In your mind, you probably believe she deserved being unalived because she ( the women you have wanted that choose muscled men over you) should have picked you.
It seems like crystal picks the wrong guy always! Not to blame her but I wonder if could have been avoidable this whole situation.. and him as a loser couldn’t take a “ no “ for an answer 😒
Another tragic lost for the world shes so beautiful, strong and sweet hearted it seems and was wasted on a roided out monster. He'lll get his in prison for sure
Thank you Jesse for letting this mother tell her story without a lot of interruptions! Such an amazing woman.
What assumptions could someone even make other then a mother doing exactly what needed to be done.
Way to go Josephine! Krystal was a very fortunate girl to have a mother like you.
Never underestimate the power of a mother!
My mother once chased down a bicycle thief in her nightgown when I was a child and actually got my bike back
Or the power of roids.
So sad story but great Mom
For reals, ever see a mama bear when her cubs are around? Usually they are pretty chill too.
I've seen some mom's do equally horrible things to their children. So yeah, never underestimate their power. 😅
What a brilliant Mother!
If it was accidentally he could have called ambulance instead of running. Smh

From the picures McLeod obviously was abusing steroids. "Roid Rage murder.
I was thinking the same thing
A lot of men take steroids and they're not out doing stuff like this. I think the roid rage is a copout.
roid rage doesn’t make you kill

He probably was tiny down there
Most steroid using wannabe bodybuilders do have tiny wee wee’s! Lmbo! 😅😅
Why are you saying that?
@@Lukenukem8732cuz a bodybuilder hurt their feelings. Or they just suck at life
I thought the same thing. He has a small willy. This murder was so senseless.
@ how do you know
What a vicious, coward of a man. What a waste of a life.
What a terrible choice the woman made to sleep with him
Bravo Mom. You are getting justice for your daughter. ✝️🙏❤️
My condolences mama, my heart breaks for you and your family. I can’t even imagine that pain
That TOXIC tattoo was a huge red flag! This mother is amazing strong woman! 🙏🏻
Well doesn't that say a lot about her if she chose to date this creep? She obviously shared some his "values".

Roid rage..look at him
That’s what I was thinking 🧐
Women need to know to spot steroids a mile away, this was way too easy. Don't mess with gym rats.

Came here just to write that but decided to look first at the comment.
@@seanguinnit’s true , everyone should take care of themselves, but the obsession when it’s not a functional purpose is an obvious cope/insecurity .

Quite possibly one of the most interesting and useful shows I’ve seen on this channel. Thanks! 🙏🏻
Dr drew sold his soul 😐😐😐
That guy is a joke!
I used to love him. He lost my respect.
This woman is unstoppable and inspiring! I'd like to think that i could do what she did and idk if I could but I know i would try. I feel terrible for her family, they lost a beautiful daughter and mother.
Shame on doctors for testifying in cases like this on the defendant’s behalf !
yeah I'm disappointed in Dr. Drew for doing this.
So incredibly sad, I’m sorry for your loss. Josephine you’re amazing! I’m going to get your book. Your determination and persistence is powerful and inspiring. Thank you for you! ❤
Unbelievable woman and mother! So impressive every step she took to track him.
Mad respect for this mother! I’m so sorry for your loss
Justice!
That monster never deserved her !!!
I love the mom sharing how he pretended to be someone he wasnt so people understand that the daughter didnt just choose a bad person. She was conned.
@@anonymoususer4866 🤣💀
Dr. Drew -- What the he'll is wrong with him??? Why on earth would he work for that monster??
That guy is a monster, but Drew didn’t say his defense was an absolute. He said it’s possible. It is possible, but not in this case. This loser bludgeoned that poor girl.
My goodness, just one look at that dude and he’s screaming RED FLAGS!!🚩 He looks like a brute and a tool!!
Some Women Loves Bad Guy. Women Overlooked Red Flags
He took advantage of her. He knew she was dealing with a stalker ex so he swooped in and told her he’d protect her etc. Her mind was preoccupied with trying to protect herself from her stalker ex.
Prison is worse in El Salvador they should just keep him down there!!! Lights on 24/7, no pillows, no mattresses, no private cells, no visitors, no commissary, simple meals rice and beans no meat, no utensils. Keep him in El Salvador!!!
Dr. Drew was called? Man, this defendant must have a ton of money to have his defense team call an expert like that.
What a brave and strong woman!!! This story brought me to tears. I'm in a bad situation right now, and I'm unsure about my future, but this woman inspired me somehow.
Dude looks … special
Yes, and also.... down
Why do people keep falling for these violent abusers
The ladies think a big strong looking guy is more safe
Need for attention sadly
They don't know what/who they are until it's too late. Happened to me...took 6 months to figure out he was a monster. Before that 100% charm.
She was being stalked, and he was the answer.
Signed, Someone Who Had One of Those Relationships.
This is what they want this is what they get
Yes!!! mama, you did well
Dr Drew I’m so disappointed he would stand up for the defense as say such crap.
He will say and do anything for money. Inside and outside the courtroom.
Drew Pinsky’s morals appear to be up for rent.
This mom is the real life Liam Neeson...what an amazing mother she is and inspirational to others.

Wasn't he dishonorably discharged from the Marines?
@ I’m guessing he conveniently neglected to inform her of that fact.
I know it’s so weird. They look odd together. Unfortunately I think the “tough marine” image was her type. I feel terrible for her children. I hope at least the father in involved.
Not getting those roids in prison, huh? Looks a lot smaller now.
I'm sorry about your lost mom 💕
No 911 call after he was seen trying to strangle her in the elevator?
i think that was footage they found after the fact
Dr. Drew has sunk lower than he already did.
So sad.. but great coverage of the case
Figures Dr Drew would testify in defense of a murderer. That putz is ridiculous.
All for money.
My opinion has changed about him now.
Where are your ethics Dr. Drew?
So sorry for your loss, Josephine. 😢😢💛💛☀️
Innocent people don't run and hide. Guilty cowards do...

I followed this horrible case from the start! I burst into tears once I read that this $&$* had been caught. What a mom! RIP stunning Krystal ❤❤
I feel so much for Krystal’s mother - she is a determined angel and I love her energy (we are kindred spirits). Josephine Mitchell for president!
Great interview, thanks 👍
Another victim of roid rage 😔
He looks so gross and has no idea
I know many women who like the whole "bad boy" look.
Mother’s instinct is the best.

Incredible work, Mama!
Dr Drew, how much did they have to pay him? Sad. Some things you simply don't do on principle.
Unbelievable

Bless You Mom
Would you still thank him for his service?
My deepest condolences for Crystal family and friend. Prayers for Justice 🙏🙏🙏❤️
Wow shes a super mom like this could be a movie and i believe this story has already been a plot point in some.
Shame she lost her daughter RIP🕊🕊🕊🕊
This reminded me of that mother that went around executing carterl members responsible for her daughters death😢😢😢😞😞😞
Thank you Jesse for letting her mom tell her story without interruption.
What a roided coward , you took her innocent life away ,try putting your hands on a inmate in prison !!
You gotta be able to protect yourself against these so-called male “protectors”. RIP.
She's the definition of a Mother's love.
She’s so beautiful! How couldn’t she see who he is!
Josephine Wentzel a reality angel!
Sounds like a steroid puppy to me. Lots of muscle. Tiny balls? Tiny brain to match? Deserves maximum punishment. A disgrace to the Marines.
This needs to be a movie! Amazing work mama!
This guy looks like a steroid addiction walking the red flags was this guy whole looks 🤣
Terrible, prayers for the mama
My condolences to this mother and her entire family.🙏🏽❤️
Would it be safer if she looked for intelligence rather than a bunch of muscles? 🤦♂️

Careful of steroid use.
It seems like crystal picks the wrong guy always! Not to blame her but I wonder if could have been avoidable this whole situation.. and him as a loser couldn’t take a “ no “ for an answer 😒
Seems like the daughter attracted a certain type of guy. She had a type.
Another tragic lost for the world shes so beautiful, strong and sweet hearted it seems and was wasted on a roided out monster. He'lll get his in prison for sure
"Fought as a U.S. Marine." -- Wasn't he dishonorably discharged?

Kudos to this mom!!
Clear roid rage.
He will not have it easy in prison. Not after murdering a young woman.
"you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know,"
No we don't
Mom's a panderer to religion and military....ugh
what a cool mother.
A roid rage Marine who killed his girlfriend. What are the odds?
Go mama..... Gosh super emotional
What an amazing mother. Glad this monster was caught and the judge denied that ridiculous defense. If it was an accident, why would you flee then?
Nice Manbun! lol
