@@Mikemfm666Okay yes, cheating is bad. It’s a betrayal but no one deserves to lose their life over cheating. Divorce. Break up. But killing someone is insane over cheating, I understand heartbreak but killing someone? It’s not just hurting the person but their whole family and friends.
I had a coworker murdered by her new husband on their honeymoon 20 years ago. All of us, including her family, hated this guy and begged her not to marry him. Her mother even walked out of the wedding 😢

I spent many years complaining about being unmarried and for the past couple of years, I have totally changed my tune. I am very content and very satisfied with being single. I have to say that it is safer to be single, then to be in an unhealthy relationship. It's just simply not worth your life.
Exactly. People have tried to put me down for being single for so many years. These are people I know for a fact are trapped in unhappy relationships (friends and colleagues). Either they want me to be as unhappy as they are or hoping I tell them I'm miserable so they feel better about being in an unhappy marriage.
@Blossoming-o6r..Exactly. It's actually shocking how many people are so dishonest about this and will encourage others to put themselves in misery (or even danger) just so they have company.

Its not about 2 people that CANT get along. Domestic violence is 1 person very intentionally wanting to hurt and destroy the other. Not 'can't get along'
@@sm-qd2bd The first time a man lays a hand on you-leave. This is often not the case, many women and men will stay thinking things will change or they say they love the abuser. A friend of mine was murdered because she stayed with a violent man. There are women's refuges and I would literally change states to get away. My guess is the victim here was hurt before and didnt take it as a serious threat.
I knew a work colleague (she was 30) who met a guy (he was 28) who was perfect the entire 10months they dated. He proposed and they got married a year later. Within a month of marriage she was suffering DV. Some people do change after marriage and they give no sign of it prior. Her parents and her three sisters all loved this guy too. Everyone was shook. Luckily she got out right away.
This guest is a brilliant woman. She explains everything so clearly and precisely and really helped you understand what she is speaking about. I can’t even explain it, I’m sure she should could!
“In shock because of “LOSING” his wife”?? Seriously? She was hardly “lost,” was she? She was beaten to death by a defective freak. May he rot in prison.
What does be an example to all of you to walk away from the guys in your life that have temper issues it's not just a temper and it's not just anger that just goes away they don't know how to handle themselves so they will definitely destroy you
Oh, look, another protector, protecting. Remember, ladies, the most dangerous person in your life is the man you choose to be with. Be careful and always protect yourself.
Boy destroyed his happy home in Memphis, Tennessee. He was batting WAY above his average scoring such a lovely bride. Fail-son realized in Fiji that he will never measure up.
He is an abuser, and I bet he had abused her to a lesser extent before. He would have done this to her sooner or later. Sadly it was sooner, before she could get away.
i dont know how difficult it is. If your partner becomes physically or verbally abusive...run....run...run...and never accept them back no matter what they say.
@@spacemanspliff7983 You seem not only excessively bitter, but have a weird hatred for women. You're spamming the comments to justify a man murdering his wife. Insanity. I suggest therapy ❤

I really appreciate your level headed approach in this horrid cases. Also appreciate your guests. These cases are horrifying enough without the sensationalism. Thank you!
They look like a healthy couple in the photos you would never have guessed this guy did what he did like my professor always said you never know what happens behind closed doors
How disgusting. I’ve watched videos by morticians and read reports from families, and I’ve heard of remains being embalmed after some pretty horrific deaths like fires, traffic accidents, etc. Heck, JFK was embalmed and his head had been blown open. I can’t imagine what this woman went through that she couldn’t possibly be embalmed.
I have never heard of someone beaten so bad they couldn't be embalmed. Is that a thing? I know sometimes they can't open the casket but never heard of this.
Idk I thought if you had a body even if it was absolutely in pieces and the family wanted to bury it, some for very religious reasons…they ship the body and have a closed casket. But apparently it’s a thing? Maybe they were given an option.
I’m pretty sure he walked away to save his own skin from any trouble and anger that you triggered in him. Love is patient and you don’t have violent urges for the people you care for- that is never normal
I'm so confuuuuused. Why do people do this to others. I will forever be confused. I can't ever imagine wanting to harm anyone especially if I ever had love for you
Wow. Why is this not surprising?? This is tragic and becoming all too common. Too many people dont know how to manage conflict, rejection or complex emotions. They kill for NO reason. People should stay single until they mature and learn how to deal with the complex emotions.
@@Augfordpdoggiedude, why are you talking about women not being able to handle their emotions when this case is literally about a man who couldn't handle his rage and murdered as a result???
Bro was super entitled who feels that level of rage to a newly married wife. It was simple don't marry her and keep it pushing. Im his case it was simple immediately leave her in location and get the marriage annuled. Play stuipd games and win stuipd prizes. Prayers to her family.
definitely NOT the first time he put his hands on her, DV usually escalates over time. very sad that this young woman had her life and dreams interrupted by this pos. may her soul rest in peace
The dude is the archetype of a creep. I wonder if people notice common physical traits in people with personality disorders or they just think its all isolated? Once you see, you cannot unsee. Poor woman.
It’s not so much physical traits for me but a vibe that is given off .. even in pictures .. when you have experienced a narcissist, it is unmistakable ..
@@neffyg35I live in Fiji too. Never been or visited a prison but hear crazy stories. Human rights advocacy is huge here, so prisoners are treated with some dignity. They are put to hard physical labour digging whatever mountain needs a makeover far away from any town or village while religious reformation and counselling are expected. Anything after dark among the prisoners is about the same as any prison out there. It's not as comfortable as one would expect at Western standard but basic facilities are provided. So, his life sentence in prison here will be far from easy comfortable. Hope that helps. I'm only describing what I hear from others or see in our local news, so other Fiji residents may have a different perspective.
Everytime I watch horrors like this, I secretly hope that if anyone hates me this much, I'd see a sign. And get away from them. We don't know who hates us do we?
3:56 their life was at it appeared. WHO POSTS THEIR BAD TIMES??? Relationships have ups and downs. Did people used to take pictures of their family when they were being abused? No. It’s the media’s fault for trying to portray that happy pictures means happy life. Real people know better.
So very tragic. This poor lady did not deserve to be abused and killed- how horrible. What a terrible person her killer is. I hope they keep him in prison forever. We don’t need him back in the USA again….ever.
