The dude that broke into our home when I was a teenager went to Home Depot and got some pretty typical stuff too. Hatchet, lock kit, rubber gloves, trash bags, etc. It was odd enough that the clerk took note. (We were fine, he slipped in unnoticed and stole my dad’s pants that had his keys and wallet in it so he could buy drugs.)
It's a very violent act isn't it. It violates the integrity of the physical body so horrendously...it's a barbaric final act of violence against her actually. Symbolic of total annihilation and destruction of Ana...for a husband to do this, he must be a soulless monster
Sociopaths feel nothing genuine. Everything is a caricature of observations of other people's emotions. I was almost killed by my sociopath ex in 2004. I know it all too well and can now identify the behavior better than a psychologist. I was lucky my son and I made it out at all. A giant red flag for me should've been how frequently things he would say to me I recognized as quotes from movies. He'd say something, and I'm a huge movie buff, so I'd call him on it and he'd play it off as if he knew that and was just part of him loving movies too. I'm actually just now putting 2 and 2 together and realizing how many movies he knew by heart that were considered more chick type flicks. I'm now realizing he purposely watched those as to relate to women's emotions. God I still have realizations from those nightmare years. 19 years I've had to deal with this psycho, 19. Sorry, my point is that they are machines. They watch, they mimic right down to accents and characters they've seen. Nothing is real, they are incapable of emotion or empathy of any kind. Complete self focus, they are always the victim. They are chameleons, so good at what they do it's terrifying. I just want to tell every woman and girl on earth the warning signs, the red flags because I wouldn't wish what I e been through on anyone except him.
I worked at Home Depot when I was 20-22 and we used to talk about customers with suspicious purchases and we’d tell our LP officers about them so we could all remember the person.
@@ShelleyBean1808 you’re intentionally being dense. no one said or implied just buying cleaning products is suspicious. buying a large amount of cleaning supplies in addition to weapons/tools that are commonly used when a murdered dismembers a body, multiple tarps, gloves, suits, etc. is MUCH different as there aren’t many situations that require all these products that aren’t suspicious.
I’m not talking about your garden variety cleaners and gloves, we’re talking buying a weird combination of things. For example, we had a guy buy jugs of bleach, industrial sized garbage bags, lime, a tarp, hand saws, a jig saw, rope, chain, 3 fans. Some of those things make sense in groups, but altogether it’s suspicious. Especially if you don’t have a company card for a contractor or cleaning service like most people do when they buy stuff like that.
He did himself no favors. That google search history and the damaged bloody knife....his goose is cooked. Justice ⚖️⚖️⚖️ for Ana. My heart goes out to her children.
The fact that he used his kids iPad to do the google searches makes it even sicker…. Thankfully this guy was dumb and was easily able to be caught RIP Ana
Everytime I google even the most innocent question, I always think to myself how embarrassing it would be for my google searches to be put on blast. And this guy didn’t give it a second thought while committing a heinous crime.
What’s really ironic is that he committed the most heinous, evil, and unforgivable acts on the person who had shown him the most grace and forgiveness.
Everyone thought my ex was the kindest, sweetest, most accommodating guy in the world. Behind closed doors he was an absolutely unhinged violent, abusive monster. I hear this time and time again - such good acting. Poor Ana deserved none of this ❤
I'm so sorry for what you went through with your ex. I am very glad you left & are OK now. My best wishes for a happy & loving future. May all your dreams come true 💛💚
That's exactly how my "dad" made himself out to be outside the home. Everyone that wasn't my mom's side of the family loved him. He was a decon in the church we went to, and he made us out to be the picture perfect family. Everyone on my mom's side of the family knew exactly who he was, but no one but my sister and I knew his dirty secret he was keeping from eeeeeeeveryone until he got caught by our mom.
I can't even begin to fathom what a child's brain would go through to try to process knowing that one of your parents did this heinous thing to another parent... This should be considered a crime as well!
Those google searches absolutely blew my mind,what an absolute monster.And to think that he searched from his CHILDS ipad. I just can’t.😞R. I.P. to a beautiful woman who was taken away far too soon.
Kudos to the investigators who thought of searching the kid’s IPad. The last thing he imagined is that they would look into his son’s device. He probably thought they would only look into his devices. Gotcha, real fool for real!!!
I live 2 minutes away from the Home Depot he went to! And my mom lives right near wear he dumped "trash" that they weren't able to recover! Super creepy! Disgusting!!! I'm happy to see someone on UA-cam covering this story! JUSTICE FOR ANA!! 🙏🏼💔
That Google search is ridiculous. And his smile coming out of the court room. He’s a monster, I think. I feel so sad for the kids. Thank you for covering this, Annie!
I can NOT believe he googled all that… I’m scared to google stuff like that even as someone who’s never killed anyone lol so idk how he thought he wouldn’t get caught
Right!? Like, I’m intrigued to google some of his searches because I don’t want to believe that this kinda stuff actually yields helpful results, and would like to confirm. Except I won’t because I’d worry the cops are gonna knock at the door a minute later 🤪
This is a good example why we shouldn't say, "As long as he is good to me, we're cool". Because someone treats anyone else cruel they are more likely to hurt you or someone you care about
Honestly, Brian reminds me a lot of my biological father. I didn't grow up with him, but I know he embezzled money from his partners, left my mom and stayed in a miserable marriage just because his wife was going to inherit, and he physically abused his teenage sons. There's a lot more to that story, but it's yet another thing that makes me thankful I never met him and he openly pretended I didn't exist. I feel so sorry for Anna, because she did truly love him, and he betrayed her so viciously. And I'm so sorry her sons have to grow up without her and are going through this turmoil.
Looking for ways to dispose of your child’s mothers body on the child’s iPad is particularly cruel and horrific, and a new level a low and evil. That’s godawful. Them poor babies.
I just wanna pause and tell you how much I admire your work , I love your personality attention to detail and just ability to tell the story , I feel our personalities are so similar and I am fascinated with all the crazy cases out there , god bless my 3 favorite true crime UA-camrs that advocate for these victims
My husband came home from work and told me about this story the days after it happened. He knows I like true crime and he's not really into it, but he knew this case would leave me with my mouth gaping!! He couldn't believe how stupid her husband was!! Its unbelievable and so sad for their children. Thanks Annie for covering this case.
I watch a lot of UA-cam true crime commenters. You're my favorite. Detailed and straight to the point. Always ahead of the others delivering recent news updates. He was jealous of her, tired of the relationship and greedy. She was too pretty and too good for that psychopathic creep.
Great job distinguishing his character between the various court declarations 👏 you really gave us a multi deminsional sketch of this person - poor Annie😢
@@judypylant1570 There is absolutely no reason a person will get flagged for those google searches unless they are being looked into for a specific crime. LE doesn't have the resources available at hand to go and knock on the doors of every creep who happened to search weird shit. It's not against the law to search those topics, in fact I've spoken to many old peers from college who were Criminal Justice majors and had to google some pretty wild things for research/research papers. And contrary to popular belief, the FBI doesn't just sit around and evaluate internet search history. The NSA would be the intelligence group to flag someone, and then the FBI would decide if the person was worth looking into, but by no means does that guarantee it's acted upon.
@@judypylant1570 It’s _impossible_ for authorities to check out every single person that searches such things… Brian would never have had cops come knocking on his door for the searches he did!! They found these Google searches having been made only upon looking into evidence that he killed his wife - & of course, help them find clues as to where he may have disposed of her…. Come on.
I am super interested in what the nanny has to say . She was in the house with the kids while the body was allegedly in the basement . Also as the victim traveled for work so much im sure the nanny spend a lot of time at home with the kids and that crazy guy. Has anyone interviews the nanny ?
I've never even thought people googled these types of questions, no one in their right mind would do this. I can't believe he just disposed of her because of money, he must have never loved her. This is crazy
They do. Quite often too, from what I’ve seen in watching crime videos. A person who is contemplating taking the life of another person, or they have already done it and need to get rid of the ßody, those people are most definitely not “in their right mind”. Sane people don’t commit murder. Whatever their frame of mind, justice must be served, and they must be held accountable for their crimes. Very few are legitimately insane where they don’t know what they did was wrong. I used to work for a state mental hospital as a Clinical Nurse Coordinator, an RN in charge of the clinical management of a team of patients, along with staff from other departments. I worked on the locked forensic unit, so we had the people who were found not guilty by reason of insanity for murder. Not every patient on that unit had killed somebody, but a few had. If I remember correctly, they were all diagnosed with schizophrenia. They were not sane at all, and they will never leave that mental hospital, except when they die. I always felt very sad for them, because they might not have committed murder if their family had gotten them psychiatric treatment when they first began showing signs of a severe mental disorder. In virtually every case, the people around them just ignored the signs of mental illness. They were having delusions about people around them wanting to kill them, hearing voices, hallucinating, etc., etc., but nobody addressed it until it was too late. As a whole, they were not violent people, but they were also being treated for their mental illness too, which made them stable. We had others who were very violent, and they weren’t there for murder. I really loved that job, and all the staff were great to work with. I’m retired now, and have been for a while, and it has truly saddened me to see what lows the medical establishment in America has sunk to. We’re not taught about the corruption, that’s something medical professionals have to learn for themselves. Medical schools feed their students the same Iies the public is fed. Those who take their oath seriously will leave their career before they participate in things that they know are harming people. Those who have integrity will put human lives above their paycheck. The last 2-3 years has shown how many medical professionals are in it today just for the money. I don’t trust any of them who are not taking a stand to uphold their oath. I’m sure it was corrupt before, but it hasn’t been truly exposed about how corrupt it is until recently. My heart goes out to the doctors and nurses who turned their back on their profession to take a stand for ethics in medicine, and putting patients first. I’m proud of them, but at the same time, I know firsthand how hard we work to have a medical license and career, and it’s a part of your soul in it. To walk away, even though it’s the right thing to do, it’s still a devastating loss. Most people went into medicine because they felt a calling to help people who are sick. At least, those I have worked with did. A few were obviously in it for the money, but the majority, back then, really had a passion for caring for people in need. I imagine it was like a a dagger to their heart to leave. But they made the ethical choice. God will reward them for suffering for the sake of righteousness.
Annie! I know you’ve been playing around with intros to find your groove & you’ve totally nailed it! It’s so cohesive & intriguing & original & your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed! Thanks for all you do! Xx
My mouth was hanging wide open at your reading the search history. That is wild! Like for me in my research about murders and cold cases and such, I may google one or two of those questions, but not that whole slew of mess! There's no explaining away that. That was the craziest google searching in the history of murderers thus far.
It's unbelievable how stupid some criminals are lol. I mean I'm glad they're stupid enough to Google stuff that will incriminate them so they're caught but it still blows my mind!
Right? Soo glad they're idiots! Lol We don't need these evil people walking our streets. And way to flush your life down the drain for one hugely selfish decision
Agreed! There were 2 guys arrested near where I live who were transporting 250 lbs of drugs speeding down the freeway in an unregistered car... like wtf?
I live in NH and they are covering this case a lot. I’ve heard that the boys are together with known family members and their dog has been rehoused with a retired police officer.
I’ve only discovered you in the last couple weeks; but damn am I impressed! You’re well spoken, well informed & well, have a fantastic speaking voice. So glad I found you! The end
I was married to a sociopath for 7 years. It was love at first sight, he seemed so perfect (at first) he was so funny and thoughtful. The FIRST “things to that make you go hmmm” moment was, his behavior would change drastically between friend group to friend groups. For instance, he would hang out with church friends where his core beliefs would change from hanging out with work friends. I don’t mean you don’t use profanity around work friends, but you might around a high school buddy. I mean, around church friends he would adamantly say childern shouldn’t attend public school but around work friends he would profess his support for public schools.
my ex was very similar. he’d change narrative depending on who he was with. i consider myself a fairly authentic person and congruence is pretty important to me. when i called him out a few times for that behavior he went bonkers. i just didn’t think it was normal and had never met anyone like that before. of course he cheated on me as well, but the worst part is tying to make me feel crazy - i had to screenshot everything for proof. now that i’m in a happy and healthy relationship - oh boy, those were crazy times 😳
@Draco Caelestis same. I had to start writing what he said down. This was way before smart phones. It was maddening. It makes me mad to know what he was doing to me. Played a lot of mind games. Total narcissist. 🙄 hope I find a better person who respects truth the same way I do.
"Things that make you go hmm" is that a reference to another youtube channel? I think her name was Amy, she had health issues and her boyfriend would do a "segment" called "things that make you go hmmm." It is that a wider cultural reference? Sorry, off topic lol, but I was just wondering bc that's the only other person I've heard use that phrase.
Her best friend said she never felt unsafe with him. I don't understand that because he threatened to kill her and her friends before they even got married. How could she not feel unsafe or in fear for her life at any time with that man?
Thank you for covering this story! My heart breaks for Anne and her children. It's scary that the ones who you love the most are the ones who will go that extra mile to hurt you.
I have a love hate relationship with these videos. On one hand it means that more tragedies have happened. Yet, on the other I'm obsessed with your videos & the way you tell each story. I have started calling it my "me time" when I see you have posted a new one 😅
He's a monster who obviously cares about no one. And nothing but money. Thank you Annie for always keeping us updated. I watch your channel daily. I feel like your one of my besties lol. Those poor sweet boys. As a mom of two boys close to their ages, I couldn't imagine someone putting such hurt on the shoulders of my babies the way this monster did his own. Shame on him. I hope he gets the punishment he deserves and the real story comes to surface soon. Rip Ana, prayers for those sweet, innocent babies. Love you Annie, girl!
First let me say, I love the new intro. About the case thanks for all you do for great information on each case. This case is insane. The Google searches showed all they needed to know about him. He just told on himself with everything he did.
I just read that she tried to call her mum and sister in the early hours of New Year’s Day but they didn’t answer. Man, that would be heartbreaking to know you missed your last chance to tell your family member you love them. This woman seemed like a powerhouse, my heart goes out to everybody who loved her.
So interestingly enough, this happened where I live and he even bought squeegees and a trash can at the Lowe's In work at. Brought his kid in to do it and everything. It's all unfolding at the courthouse in my city and it's nuts, especially after seeing all of the Google searches
😅 I'm struggling against my curious side very much wanting to Google all the things he Googled just to see what his answers were and who the heck was answering them 🤣
I have and the cops raided are house because my um bro having done some nasty internet searches they took all are electronics and all they said was well your very interested in killing and murder and unaliving yourself should be be worried.
I am new to this channel but it has quickly become my favorite. Annie is so respectful when covering cases. You can tell how much time she spends researching. She is compassionate, smart, and has a big heart. She is so passionate and is always fighting and advocating for victims by bringing more attention to their case. We appreciate what you do, Annie!
I'm ALWAYS ready for an update with Annie 🥰 you know you're getting solid ,new information . Those Google searches and store purchases 🤔🤨🙄 WOW what a disgusting and clearly unintelligent human! Prayers and justice for Anne her children and family 🙏😓
This is an interesting case! I’m abroad for work and always look up new crime stories and docs. You are an amazing crime commentator. It’s crazy that this beautiful woman was taken away because of his greed.
Annie, I just recently discovered your channel. Just this last week actually. The amount of work you put into your research on these cases is obvious in your videos. You are confident, informed, and listening to the information from you almost feels like a friend telling me a very wild (and always tragic) story. You are so respectful as well, and your own thoughts or commentary always seem well thought out, and not the reiteration of someone else you read about while researching the case. Anyways yes, keep up your amazing work. Thanks for all you do!
@@adelicatefire - my (now 16yo) daughter said what 10 to life mom .. I said I have Mr Ballen 😂😅 ~ who is also great by the one .. being able to watch them both is awesome.. to very different approaches to how they tell these stories AND I love that we can get in to how we all feel about the case with each other. She is truly one of the best !! My daughter and I finally get to talk about something we related to 😁🥰not easy these days with a teenager. I’m thinking she’s going to really do her forensic scientist work in the future. ❤
Not finished watching yet but I can't imagine the turmoil those poor kid's are going through. Imagine knowing your dad (who I'm assuming they loved very much, especially as he was the primary care giver) had murdered your mum 😐😞 he deserves to rot and I cannot believe how idiotic he was with those searches. Certainly made it easy for the prosecution. As always great content Annie ❤️
“On what planet does…”. I love the way you tell these stories, especially when you put your two cents’ worth in! I love watching your videos! You are amazing! Keep on growing…
I’m right there with you when it comes to the thought processes of alleged murderers. Do they really think they’re not going to get caught? ESPECIALLY, with evidence and google searches. It truly blows my mind. I believe it was money driven 💯 and the fact that she was preparing for a divorce. My heart goes out to them boys and her family. It’s so so sad.
Can I just take a moment to tell you how much I appreciate the fact that on the Google search graphics you posted, you posted the times of each search in the top left corner so that it accurately matched the search term and your voice over? Superb editing work.
I am very sorry for her children and her family. Couldn't begin to understand how the children would feel. Bless them. Dude, at least use a VPN! And apparently he's never heard of DNA. All you need is a fingernail for Christ's sake! Note to self: do not shop at Home Depot cuz their cleaning supplies are apparently really expensive!!
@@sissy4506 I’m thinking it wasn’t so much the cleaning supplies that ran the bill up to $450, particularly when considering the myriad of things he bought- that, ultimately, went far beyond cleaning supplies….
You are very intelligent. It is truly a gift you have to be able to absorb all of the information for each and every case you do. AND you post updates. You have become my favorite true come channel. I love your accuracy, delivery & dedication. Thank you for the content you are providing to help spread awareness. I do hope you take time for you, your child and husband to decompress as I know the content does become heavy. Thank you for all of the awareness you provide
Saddest part of all is that it's only getting worse n worse with each and everyday that passes too. Bc Just when you think it can't get any worse you hear cases just like this one where the utter callousness and pure evil surpasses the one before. So extremely sad, discouraging not to mention overwhelming FEAR I feel for my two young middleschool aged daughters. So many in society has lost all sense of morality and treating others the way you would want to be treated!!! Come on people we are so much BETTER THAN THIS!!!!!
I think you are spot on about Brian. I'm so glad you found the truth about his father. That sealed the deal for me. Prayers for Ana and her boys. What about the man who spent New Years Eve with them and said everything was normal?
You're the hardest working person on UA-cam, absolutely dedicated & I so appreciate your updates & videos! Also this dude is a complete idiot. He's definitely guilty.
Thoughts. I think he killed her because she said something about talking to authorities about something or something to that effect. I think it would have had to have been an situation where he thought he was cornered in the argument with her. I don't think he planned the murder ahead of time. I think he impulsively hit her and killed her.
By one of your subscribers, I learned a great deal.. thanks to them🙏. There is so much information, he is a sociopath.. I hope Anas boys are kept with family, or together by a wonderful friend of the family.. justice for Ana and her boys Respect Thank you Dr Ed
Just the thought of being murdered by someone that's suppose be the love of your life or once was and you have children with is extremely heartbreaking and devastating 💔. I can't even fathom what her thoughts were before he did that to her. Such betrayal. Rip to the beautiful Ana . I also hope those kids will end up being the best that they can despite all of this.

Those google searches absolutely blew my mind,what an absolute monster.And to think that he searched from his CHILDS ipad. I just can’t.😞R. I.P. to a beautiful woman who was taken away far too soon.
Kudos to the investigators who thought of searching the kid’s IPad. The last thing he imagined is that they would look into his son’s device.
He probably thought they would only look into his devices. Gotcha, real fool for real!!!
She was way too beautiful for trash like him. Physically & mentally.
I live 2 minutes away from the Home Depot he went to! And my mom lives right near wear he dumped "trash" that they weren't able to recover! Super creepy! Disgusting!!!
I'm happy to see someone on UA-cam covering this story!
JUSTICE FOR ANA!! 🙏🏼💔
That Google search is ridiculous. And his smile coming out of the court room. He’s a monster, I think. I feel so sad for the kids. Thank you for covering this, Annie!
jfc those google searches would be ridiculously entertaining if the circumstances weren't so bloody tragic
I can NOT believe he googled all that… I’m scared to google stuff like that even as someone who’s never killed anyone lol so idk how he thought he wouldn’t get caught
Same here. I am someone with a lot of weird curiosity but I am too freaked out to google stuff like that! I guess thats what separates us from them.
Why would you even want to google something like that?
Go ahead ..the cops will be at your door too..
That's what VPNs incognito mode and alternative search engines are for. I had to search for some whacky stuff for research purposes before haha.
Right!? Like, I’m intrigued to google some of his searches because I don’t want to believe that this kinda stuff actually yields helpful results, and would like to confirm. Except I won’t because I’d worry the cops are gonna knock at the door a minute later 🤪
This is a good example why we shouldn't say, "As long as he is good to me, we're cool". Because someone treats anyone else cruel they are more likely to hurt you or someone you care about
Honestly, Brian reminds me a lot of my biological father. I didn't grow up with him, but I know he embezzled money from his partners, left my mom and stayed in a miserable marriage just because his wife was going to inherit, and he physically abused his teenage sons. There's a lot more to that story, but it's yet another thing that makes me thankful I never met him and he openly pretended I didn't exist.
I feel so sorry for Anna, because she did truly love him, and he betrayed her so viciously. And I'm so sorry her sons have to grow up without her and are going through this turmoil.
His parents actually had the most accurate view of their son. Being a psychopath develops in early childhood.
I was eating lunch and listening to his google searches and literally felt nauseous. The bad thing is I’ve been a nurse for 38 years!! His is sick!!
This is Definitely definition of “sleeping with the enemy” 🥺💔 so scary
One truly knows no one until you live with them. His dad stated most specifically & honestly what Brian was truly like.
Looking for ways to dispose of your child’s mothers body on the child’s iPad is particularly cruel and horrific, and a new level a low and evil. That’s godawful. Them poor babies.
I just wanna pause and tell you how much I admire your work , I love your personality attention to detail and just ability to tell the story , I feel our personalities are so similar and I am fascinated with all the crazy cases out there , god bless my 3 favorite true crime UA-camrs that advocate for these victims
My husband came home from work and told me about this story the days after it happened. He knows I like true crime and he's not really into it, but he knew this case would leave me with my mouth gaping!! He couldn't believe how stupid her husband was!! Its unbelievable and so sad for their children. Thanks Annie for covering this case.
Your husband is leaving YOU breadcrumbs… hiding his intentions in plain sight. Watch out!!!
Only kidding, that’s a thoughtful hubby
@@kash.e.w.6937 🤣 we've been married for decades, no one is going anywhere
Look out
Never seen someone incriminate themselves so badly just through their Google searches...🤡
I watch a lot of UA-cam true crime commenters. You're my favorite. Detailed and straight to the point. Always ahead of the others delivering recent news updates. He was jealous of her, tired of the relationship and greedy. She was too pretty and too good for that psychopathic creep.
How does one get jealous and tired of the relationship at the same time?
@@SimplyTheBestCSGO money, he’s obviously a psychopath. They don’t care about anyone but themselves.
Great job distinguishing his character between the various court declarations 👏 you really gave us a multi deminsional sketch of this person - poor Annie😢
“How we do one thing is how we do everything”. You got that right, deceitful and rotten then, deceitful and rotten always
Everytime I hear about people Googleing this stuff, I am tempted to see what Google says but scared of what I'll find!!
Go ahead…on what planet do you think you won’t get a serious call..
@@judypylant1570 There is absolutely no reason a person will get flagged for those google searches unless they are being looked into for a specific crime. LE doesn't have the resources available at hand to go and knock on the doors of every creep who happened to search weird shit. It's not against the law to search those topics, in fact I've spoken to many old peers from college who were Criminal Justice majors and had to google some pretty wild things for research/research papers. And contrary to popular belief, the FBI doesn't just sit around and evaluate internet search history. The NSA would be the intelligence group to flag someone, and then the FBI would decide if the person was worth looking into, but by no means does that guarantee it's acted upon.
@@judypylant1570 It’s _impossible_ for authorities to check out every single person that searches such things… Brian would never have had cops come knocking on his door for the searches he did!! They found these Google searches having been made only upon looking into evidence that he killed his wife - & of course, help them find clues as to where he may have disposed of her…. Come on.
@judypylant1570 I've seen your other comments and you need to get a damn grip woman
I am super interested in what the nanny has to say . She was in the house with the kids while the body was allegedly in the basement . Also as the victim traveled for work so much im sure the nanny spend a lot of time at home with the kids and that crazy guy. Has anyone interviews the nanny ?
Can you imagine 😳 I would be traumatized!
I've never even thought people googled these types of questions, no one in their right mind would do this. I can't believe he just disposed of her because of money, he must have never loved her. This is crazy
They do. Quite often too, from what I’ve seen in watching crime videos. A person who is contemplating taking the life of another person, or they have already done it and need to get rid of the ßody, those people are most definitely not “in their right mind”. Sane people don’t commit murder. Whatever their frame of mind, justice must be served, and they must be held accountable for their crimes. Very few are legitimately insane where they don’t know what they did was wrong. I used to work for a state mental hospital as a Clinical Nurse Coordinator, an RN in charge of the clinical management of a team of patients, along with staff from other departments. I worked on the locked forensic unit, so we had the people who were found not guilty by reason of insanity for murder. Not every patient on that unit had killed somebody, but a few had. If I remember correctly, they were all diagnosed with schizophrenia. They were not sane at all, and they will never leave that mental hospital, except when they die. I always felt very sad for them, because they might not have committed murder if their family had gotten them psychiatric treatment when they first began showing signs of a severe mental disorder. In virtually every case, the people around them just ignored the signs of mental illness. They were having delusions about people around them wanting to kill them, hearing voices, hallucinating, etc., etc., but nobody addressed it until it was too late. As a whole, they were not violent people, but they were also being treated for their mental illness too, which made them stable. We had others who were very violent, and they weren’t there for murder. I really loved that job, and all the staff were great to work with. I’m retired now, and have been for a while, and it has truly saddened me to see what lows the medical establishment in America has sunk to. We’re not taught about the corruption, that’s something medical professionals have to learn for themselves. Medical schools feed their students the same Iies the public is fed. Those who take their oath seriously will leave their career before they participate in things that they know are harming people. Those who have integrity will put human lives above their paycheck. The last 2-3 years has shown how many medical professionals are in it today just for the money. I don’t trust any of them who are not taking a stand to uphold their oath. I’m sure it was corrupt before, but it hasn’t been truly exposed about how corrupt it is until recently. My heart goes out to the doctors and nurses who turned their back on their profession to take a stand for ethics in medicine, and putting patients first. I’m proud of them, but at the same time, I know firsthand how hard we work to have a medical license and career, and it’s a part of your soul in it. To walk away, even though it’s the right thing to do, it’s still a devastating loss. Most people went into medicine because they felt a calling to help people who are sick. At least, those I have worked with did. A few were obviously in it for the money, but the majority, back then, really had a passion for caring for people in need. I imagine it was like a a dagger to their heart to leave. But they made the ethical choice. God will reward them for suffering for the sake of righteousness.
I would with certain things BUT much more differently
Right? The worst anyone will find in my search history is how deep do I bury garlic bulbs?
You know "drunk dialing" I think he was drunk googling..in my opinion..🇨🇦
@@wanderlustjb stoopid Googling is more my thought
Annie! I know you’ve been playing around with intros to find your groove & you’ve totally nailed it! It’s so cohesive & intriguing & original & your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed! Thanks for all you do! Xx
My mouth was hanging wide open at your reading the search history. That is wild! Like for me in my research about murders and cold cases and such, I may google one or two of those questions, but not that whole slew of mess! There's no explaining away that. That was the craziest google searching in the history of murderers thus far.
It's unbelievable how stupid some criminals are lol. I mean I'm glad they're stupid enough to Google stuff that will incriminate them so they're caught but it still blows my mind!
I almost think they know they will be caught so..why try?
Right? Soo glad they're idiots! Lol We don't need these evil people walking our streets. And way to flush your life down the drain for one hugely selfish decision
For real tho. Like the audacity of him to think he could even get away with it with a search history like that. SMH.
Agreed! There were 2 guys arrested near where I live who were transporting 250 lbs of drugs speeding down the freeway in an unregistered car... like wtf?
I live in NH and they are covering this case a lot. I’ve heard that the boys are together with known family members and their dog has been rehoused with a retired police officer.
I can’t imagine the pain and fear she was subjected to by her evil husband
I have to stop starting my morning watching these cases it’s so heavy for me it sets a dark tone for the rest of my day
Those children are the ultimate victims in all this. I hope that they are with someone who will get them the help they need.
I’ve only discovered you in the last couple weeks; but damn am I impressed! You’re well spoken, well informed & well, have a fantastic speaking voice.
So glad I found you!
The end
I was married to a sociopath for 7 years. It was love at first sight, he seemed so perfect (at first) he was so funny and thoughtful. The FIRST “things to that make you go hmmm” moment was, his behavior would change drastically between friend group to friend groups. For instance, he would hang out with church friends where his core beliefs would change from hanging out with work friends. I don’t mean you don’t use profanity around work friends, but you might around a high school buddy. I mean, around church friends he would adamantly say childern shouldn’t attend public school but around work friends he would profess his support for public schools.
Yuck
my ex was very similar. he’d change narrative depending on who he was with. i consider myself a fairly authentic person and congruence is pretty important to me. when i called him out a few times for that behavior he went bonkers. i just didn’t think it was normal and had never met anyone like that before. of course he cheated on me as well, but the worst part is tying to make me feel crazy - i had to screenshot everything for proof. now that i’m in a happy and healthy relationship - oh boy, those were crazy times 😳
@Draco Caelestis same. I had to start writing what he said down. This was way before smart phones. It was maddening. It makes me mad to know what he was doing to me. Played a lot of mind games. Total narcissist. 🙄 hope I find a better person who respects truth the same way I do.
"Things that make you go hmm" is that a reference to another youtube channel? I think her name was Amy, she had health issues and her boyfriend would do a "segment" called "things that make you go hmmm." It is that a wider cultural reference? Sorry, off topic lol, but I was just wondering bc that's the only other person I've heard use that phrase.
@@codirennke1109 lol it’s a song from the 90s by CandC music factory.

Her best friend said she never felt unsafe with him. I don't understand that because he threatened to kill her and her friends before they even got married. How could she not feel unsafe or in fear for her life at any time with that man?
For a man to inflict this type of trauma onto his own children is so depraved. I hope Ana’s family can care for those babies together 😢
She was way out of Brian’s league in my opinion! This is heartbreaking & my heart aches for her precious boys 💔
Thank you for covering this story! My heart breaks for Anne and her children. It's scary that the ones who you love the most are the ones who will go that extra mile to hurt you.
I have a love hate relationship with these videos. On one hand it means that more tragedies have happened. Yet, on the other I'm obsessed with your videos & the way you tell each story. I have started calling it my "me time" when I see you have posted a new one 😅
He's a monster who obviously cares about no one. And nothing but money. Thank you Annie for always keeping us updated. I watch your channel daily. I feel like your one of my besties lol. Those poor sweet boys. As a mom of two boys close to their ages, I couldn't imagine someone putting such hurt on the shoulders of my babies the way this monster did his own. Shame on him. I hope he gets the punishment he deserves and the real story comes to surface soon. Rip Ana, prayers for those sweet, innocent babies. Love you Annie, girl!
I have no words for this situation! It's beyond words!
Sure would love to have an update on this case. Justice for Ana!
I’m really glad you are covering this story! Thank you Annie for all the hard work you put into each and every video! I for one sure appreciate it!💜💜
Thanks for watching and supporting!
Me too!
I just feel absolutely heart broken for the 3 boys.
First let me say, I love the new intro. About the case thanks for all you do for great information on each case. This case is insane. The Google searches showed all they needed to know about him. He just told on himself with everything he did.
I just read that she tried to call her mum and sister in the early hours of New Year’s Day but they didn’t answer. Man, that would be heartbreaking to know you missed your last chance to tell your family member you love them. This woman seemed like a powerhouse, my heart goes out to everybody who loved her.
So interestingly enough, this happened where I live and he even bought squeegees and a trash can at the Lowe's In work at. Brought his kid in to do it and everything. It's all unfolding at the courthouse in my city and it's nuts, especially after seeing all of the Google searches
I know did he think no one would see the Google searches or what??
I’m local too- crazy!
😅 I'm struggling against my curious side very much wanting to Google all the things he Googled just to see what his answers were and who the heck was answering them 🤣
I have and the cops raided are house because my um bro having done some nasty internet searches they took all are electronics and all they said was well your very interested in killing and murder and unaliving yourself should be be worried.
Go ahead..on what planet do you think you won’t be investigated ..they have your number ..
@@judypylant1570 Thats why I said I'm struggling against my curious side lmao
I'm not an idiot.. But thank you for your concern.
Shit !! That’s brutal .

I am new to this channel but it has quickly become my favorite. Annie is so respectful when covering cases. You can tell how much time she spends researching. She is compassionate, smart, and has a big heart. She is so passionate and is always fighting and advocating for victims by bringing more attention to their case. We appreciate what you do, Annie!
I'm ALWAYS ready for an update with Annie 🥰 you know you're getting solid ,new information . Those Google searches and store purchases 🤔🤨🙄 WOW what a disgusting and clearly unintelligent human! Prayers and justice for Anne her children and family 🙏😓
Most definitely yes and AMEN 🙏

Annie you have very good skills at speaking facts concisely. Also you are a great speaker. 👍
This is an interesting case! I’m abroad for work and always look up new crime stories and docs. You are an amazing crime commentator. It’s crazy that this beautiful woman was taken away because of his greed.
Annie, I just recently discovered your channel. Just this last week actually. The amount of work you put into your research on these cases is obvious in your videos. You are confident, informed, and listening to the information from you almost feels like a friend telling me a very wild (and always tragic) story. You are so respectful as well, and your own thoughts or commentary always seem well thought out, and not the reiteration of someone else you read about while researching the case. Anyways yes, keep up your amazing work. Thanks for all you do!
Yay! I love this so so so much! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you Annie for all your hard work providing this video. This guy tricked his way into her life. She finally figured him out.
It's really HORRIFYING he did the searches!! They're Gruesome, but he made it easy to Convict!!!
Love you and your dedication to putting a concise report together for all of us. Thank you super sleuth your a star for sure.
Not finished watching yet but I can't imagine the turmoil those poor kid's are going through. Imagine knowing your dad (who I'm assuming they loved very much, especially as he was the primary care giver) had murdered your mum 😐😞 he deserves to rot and I cannot believe how idiotic he was with those searches. Certainly made it easy for the prosecution.
As always great content Annie ❤️

“On what planet does…”. I love the way you tell these stories, especially when you put your two cents’ worth in! I love watching your videos! You are amazing! Keep on growing…
I’m right there with you when it comes to the thought processes of alleged murderers. Do they really think they’re not going to get caught? ESPECIALLY, with evidence and google searches. It truly blows my mind. I believe it was money driven 💯 and the fact that she was preparing for a divorce.
My heart goes out to them boys and her family. It’s so so sad.
Can I just take a moment to tell you how much I appreciate the fact that on the Google search graphics you posted, you posted the times of each search in the top left corner so that it accurately matched the search term and your voice over? Superb editing work.
She’s legit the best. So detailed and informative. Love her work! It’s incredible!
I am very sorry for her children and her family. Couldn't begin to understand how the children would feel. Bless them.
Dude, at least use a VPN! And apparently he's never heard of DNA. All you need is a fingernail for Christ's sake!
Note to self: do not shop at Home Depot cuz their cleaning supplies are apparently really expensive!!
Home Depot cleaning supplies 😆
My thoughts exactly... DuckDuckGo, incognito mode, a VPN... anything. I guess it's sheer luck he was that stupid. Made police's job easier.
He was Lucky to have her.Shes beautiful he's UGLY
@@debbie8130 $450 worth
@@sissy4506 I’m thinking it wasn’t so much the cleaning supplies that ran the bill up to $450, particularly when considering the myriad of things he bought- that, ultimately, went far beyond cleaning supplies….

You are very intelligent. It is truly a gift you have to be able to absorb all of the information for each and every case you do. AND you post updates. You have become my favorite true come channel. I love your accuracy, delivery & dedication. Thank you for the content you are providing to help spread awareness. I do hope you take time for you, your child and husband to decompress as I know the content does become heavy. Thank you for all of the awareness you provide
Anna was so beautiful and accomplished. RIP 😢🙏 Love you Annie!
He should have googled…what’s the quickest way to get caught for a murder. Oh wait. He did. Never mind.
What happened to just divorcing someone?
The level of evil is UNREAL,how can you murder,chop up and throw away in dumpsters someone you once loved??
Yep. Imagine - just imagine - chopping up a body. A body of a family member. Good God!
My thoughts exactly!!
He was hoping to inherit her life insurance. Unbelievable!!!
Saddest part of all is that it's only getting worse n worse with each and everyday that passes too. Bc Just when you think it can't get any worse you hear cases just like this one where the utter callousness and pure evil surpasses the one before. So extremely sad, discouraging not to mention overwhelming FEAR I feel for my two young middleschool aged daughters. So many in society has lost all sense of morality and treating others the way you would want to be treated!!! Come on people we are so much BETTER THAN THIS!!!!!
Wow! Thank you so much Annie for covering this!!! It’s so important to get it out there!! Yours is the best! ♥️♥️
Your one of my most frequently watched videos!!!! Think your research is extensive. And cases are fascinating!!!!! Glad I found you ❤
You’re so Great at Diving into these stories! Love your insights too 💪🏼

Annie do you sleep? I don’t know how you juggle motherhood and constantly crank out amazing videos?!
I've been waiting for you to do this update!! Thank you for your hard work.
Thoughts. I think he killed her because she said something about talking to authorities about something or something to that effect. I think it would have had to have been an situation where he thought he was cornered in the argument with her. I don't think he planned the murder ahead of time. I think he impulsively hit her and killed her.
By one of your subscribers, I learned a great deal.. thanks to them🙏. There is so much information, he is a sociopath.. I hope Anas boys are kept with family, or together by a wonderful friend of the family.. justice for Ana and her boys
Respect
Thank you

Just the thought of being murdered by someone that's suppose be the love of your life or once was and you have children with is extremely heartbreaking and devastating 💔. I can't even fathom what her thoughts were before he did that to her. Such betrayal. Rip to the beautiful Ana . I also hope those kids will end up being the best that they can despite all of this.
Annie’s intro video is so badass - it’s like a legit tv show - gives me goosebumps every time!!!!
I’m SO glad you did this one. I’ve been waiting patiently I knew it was only a matter of time ! ❤
When Annie starts calling people “my guy” 😂😂😂😂😂
