That's the problem if you are used to not reporting home for days. It took 5 days to report her missing.
At 18 you hardly know what's going on in life and hence should still be in the protective home of your parents where you can receive solid guidance. These kids these days think they know it all at such a young and vulnerable age and hence find themselves in trouble and sometimes, it is deadly and tragic. May she RIP.
Some of us were lucky. We just never got with the wrong people, and we never reported too much to our families. Must have stressed them out..❤
The Mr. Big sting obviously never gets old.
I'm surprised he wasn't onto it as he was a fan of crime shows.
"For the perfect crime, just add water"
Thank you for the tip.
Lol. I think that bleach water would probably be better hahaha
I know right
lol
I was looking for this compliment like wtf???
Some of these killers can’t help but brag about their crime…always their undoing…he didn’t learn that watching all his crime shows…RIP Erin ❤
If he was watching American murder shows.american police don't do elaborate sting operations like Canada does I've seen three from canada
why did they need the "steal" the family car? and the "covert" home search? don't they have warrants in Kanda?
That was my question, too.
It also seemed strange how they got no forensic evidence and did not do a thorough enough search to see an old grave had been dug up despite highly suspecting that was where he had buried the body
Qa7@@@TheThreatenedSwan
What/where is "Kanda"?
@@user-gj1me4mf5c it’s up north eh
I just can't understand how people could be this cruel. There's a big difference between protection of one's self and a brutal crime like this. No one no matter what they've done or said deserves this. It's such a heart breaking thing to know people can be so evil. God rest her soul and may peace be with her family.
If you cant understand how people can be evil, then you are very naive and up for a nasty surprise in your life.
I can't help but laugh on how the reporter describes Michael
Same lol
Bless these officers for their wonderful work missing their family and always badly paid I want to thank them for bringing monster off the streets
This is an insult to mental health I feel sorry for every woman that don't get justice
That and second degree murder…REALLY!!! And what about the family who’s grave he desecrated to burry her body. Jus disgusting 🤮
P@@Davidmaldonado9173
Huh? An "insult to mental health"???
@@user-gj1me4mf5c… everything is MENTAL HEALTH anymore… except for MONEY CRIMES ! If a person R@&$ a bank, can’t blame that on Mental health..
Law enforcement has to get the car stolen and delivered to the forensic team!!! That's a crime 😂 solved by commiting another crime.
They had a warrant.
These Canadian crime show are great. They don't do a recap of the story for each, each 12 or so, freakin commercial break.
Wow. Astounding amount of effort. I wish every kidnapping and murder in the US, or anywhere, could be treated this way.
This being the only murder they had, the whole team had 2 years to fill. Less than a murder per year is a great statistic.
You mean parole after less than 25 years for such a brutal and heinous crime. I think her relatives might feel differently. She's dead, so she has no say in the matter because justice is perverted in Canada.
Sad how people.. men or women, keep going back to toxic and abusive relationships. I dont understand it. Nothing good ever comes of it.
it's kinda hard to explain it second-hand, it's one of those things you almost have to go through yourself to understand why. I was in an abusive relationship for 2 years because he had me feeling so horrible about myself to the point where I decided that his bad attention was better than no attention at all. He would say things like "you should be glad I pay attention to you in the first place because if I didn't NO ONE would" and "why do you even bother with make-up? It's not like it'll make you look any better" and he would constantly put me down and criticize me about stuff. I FINALLY had the courage to get a restraining order against him when my father walked IN ON the abuse. We'd gotten into an argument one day and he had raised his hand like he was going to hit me and obviously I had turned away from him so that at least he wouldn't hit me in the face. Neither of us realized that my father walked into the room until he shoved Tyler to the ground and threatened to kill him if he ever came near me again. He took me to the Police Station right then and there and they arrested Tyler for domestic abuse. At the time my self-esteem was so low that if he'd handed me a gun and told me to shoot myself I probably would have done it, that's how bad it had gotten by the time I was finally able to get out of the relationship. I was only 15 at the time it started and it was 2 years of absolute HELL.
@@LotusStitchandSketch i am so sorry for your experience and thankful for your dad protecting you. I grew up in a household where my dad was the bully, but he also would have done as your dad did. I dint think he could see the same actions in himself. He didnt strike us girls in his little temper tantrums but he did my brothers and git rid of any animal he didnt want there. He was emotionally and psychologically abusive to my mom. I vowed no one would treat me like that ever. I hated the way my dad treated my mom. I am so glad for you that you were able to get out of it. I dont understand how people can treat others so horribly.
@@LotusStitchandSketch
Lucky to have a dad like that! Also good explanation… it’s a form of brainwashing really.
Since I learned about Mr. Big operation performed by the Canadian police, i have wondered why the reveal the tricks on TV. I live in Norway, and with watching the first show, I thought, this would not work anymore. But, it has performed several times as I know, and it has worked perfectly! Why? don't people know that? In this case at least, we know that the attorney had even warned him about the trap, and still he was fooled.
It tells me that my assumption has been right: People are stupid!
Big egos
Personally, i dont think these kinds of people actually watch true crime shows to see what actually happens. Criminals aren't very smart.
@@carolyn6001 But, you see in this case the attorney had warned that they may play Big Boss on him. Fortunately the guy was enough stupid to fall in the trap.
It doesn't matter if they show it on TV. The fact that those people fall for it, especially when the operation happens not long after the crime, means they're that stupid that they would also fall for it even after it's existence, as was the case here with the lawyer warning him.
Some people are not entirely stupid, they are just so extremely arrogant that they do not consider that they could be tricked.
Damn, that is one sneaky police unit. Everything they did covertly; searching the car, searching the house, and getting the confession. Is their police chief ex CIA or something (or whatever the Canadian equivalent of that is)???
I don't care what tactics the Officers used (stealing, lying) in a sting operation because it ended up solving the case and catching the killer.
Eve K, my sentiments exactly!!!
Does it everytime???
Be careful with that logic. Think about it.
@@nicolescheimann9573 nope. It sure doesn’t.
@@billthebutcher1780 yes….
Cold hearted murder of a young woman. Glad he was caught.
🙄A social recluse that stays home all day watching crime shows and has been WARNED about a “mr big” operation spills all his secrets to a stranger to join a random “gang?” COME ON MAN!
Or a big heap of s... who thought he was God's gift to women choked, strangle ad drown his young girlfriend and might have got away with it but, thought he would play cat and mouse with letters to the cops and his idea that he was the makings maybe of a serial killer so a great cv for a new gang....hmmm so don't think he is a normal thinking human. Glad he got caught by his own admissions
It is difficult to understand why this heartless murderer received only 25 years for the cold-blooded savage murder of Erin. I believe he should have gotten life. Erin's whole life was ahead of her and it was stolen from her. I imagine her family and friends will never get over their loss. May Erin RIP.
It’s Canada. The commonwealth countries give stupidly short sentences 🤯
That's Canada. To get life you have to kill the Holy Trinity plus the Virtgin Mary.
One has to wonder why there was no intervention by her family? How pathetic are these people?
I imagine the investigation of the cemetery went like:
"Hey what about the disturbed soil in an older section over here? Should we investigate it?"
"Nah, we'll only check this new section"
So sad story, there's so many criminals around the world. Hope all of them will get caught
Oh they will get "caught" in God's court of law called Judgment Day and there will be no appeal or arguing with the Judge.
There are few murders in Brandon, sometimes less than one per year. Usually it's a knife fight gone bad, as opposed to a knife fight gone good.
And never mind the thousands of native women murdered.
@@macm3081 Natives gonna native. And I think trying to change their culture to be more like Europeans is colonialism and cultural genocide so
I didn't realize that the rules for police searches were so different between the US and Canada.
Yeah. I was really shocked. They can steal your car and enter your house???? Whoa
... and then he went to sleep...
chilling
Surely he would have killed again. Someone’s daughter,sister or mom is safe now. Or several women….
It's Canada . He'll be out in a few
years time....
Declining to show up at searches for a missing person (or their body) doesn't show guilt. It shows that you are aware of the tendency of law enforcement to look closely at such crowds (and often photograph them) in the hopes that the killer is there, reliving their crime. At least some of them do.
And some are frightened of finding something.....
Isn't that the same thing? Either way you frame it, the person looks guilty lol if the person is aware police are looking for the killer, and that person is scared to search for that reason... looks guilty
If you really wanted to find the one you love, you would be looking everywhere. Not caring about finding them does but a spotlight on you.
You, know...the murderers go to great, labor intensive, super evil, arduous lengths to cover a crime when he/she coulda just walked away from the initial argument or assault OR appeared in court and faced assault charges. My hats off to law enforcement, prosecuting attorneys, undercover cops, actors. The BIG question is: does law envforcement really go to such lengths (in years and in actual getting hands dirty) in trying to nab the suspect. You betcha!
In one way I agree. Yet it’s important that they had warrants and were making full records as normal. In effect the difference is that The suspect did not know he was under such close suspicion. But like you, I would have big reservations. If the case had hung just on evidence found in these searches, it would be dubious.
He still should have gotten first degree murder not second. He tried killing that girl two times then on his third try he succeeded by drowning her in the bathtub. Which then cleaned off the evidence and then went to bed as she was left in the tub. Then he desecrated a grave site and buried her dead body. It was pre meditated and should have gotten first degree murder such bull shit.
Many say it was an assault when they planned to murder the person. This guy went to great lengths to cover this up and that's not something that happens in the spare of the moment.
@@seeya205 She filed a protection order against him, he was obviously abusive yet the re-enactment shows her attacking him. He likely got her to meet with him by crying or threatening to harm himself, a ploy not too seldom used. Abusers know their victim's emotionally weak spots. He might even have instigated the fight in order to justify what he was about to do and had planned, her murder. We are too willing to assume he just "snapped".
Part of US law enforcement training, including detectives, should be to learn how cases are solved in other countries...
I'm so glad he was the one that convicted himself.
R.I.P Erin, I hope your family are doing well and are finding some life without you.
Canada is a beautiful place with beautiful people. However a man that decapitated and cannibalized a young man on a bus was out of prison in 14 years.
Actually...it was five years
@@acanadianfarmgirl2667
Wow.
I thought prison was to protect the public at large.
Thanks for the info.
@@sherrynelson1508 I think it's the old situation where the guy was temporarily insane when he committed the act so he was deemed not legally responsible and put in a mental hospital rather than a prison. He eventually recovered and was released as he was not deemed a threat to society.
None of the passengers on bus tried to stop him from beheading and eating a passenger???
Hot in the summer and cold in the winter, you don't say 😆😆😆👍😎
Where I live you can have four season in one day.
Dry and windy all year too.
the actor portraying Bridges looks about 25 but the actual guy was about 40. Would it have been so difficult to find a 40 yr old actor for this reenactment>/?
For once, we never saw a photo of the real killer, which usually happens at the end of these shows.
He's 42 now. He was 24 when he committed the murder.
I love the actors. Captured the attitudes of the real people. Condolences to the family and friends 🙏
"I love her and would never do anything to hurt her."
*pleads guilty to assault 😊
Car is stolen by police, found, and returned. For free? That would make them suspicious I would think. I have had a car stolen, found by police and returned but only after a $400 fee for towing and storage paid to a tow company with a county contract..
Different rules in different places. My sisters car was stolen and they just let her pick it up from where it was dumped and she drove it home. Later in the day a detective came by and dusted it for prints. No fee for any of it.
There’s something that seems quite wrong about the stealing of his car and secretly breaking into his house…not because they shouldn’t search it but how do you trust these police when they’re allowed to actually steal your things and break into your house. It’s very different to openly taking the car and searching the house…forget this case in particular; if I was on a jury and I found out the police had stolen the car and then lied about finding it as well as secretly going through his family home (regardless of whether they are allowed) I would be very hesitant to trust any evidence they claim to have found. It just sounds so snakey and I wouldn’t be able to trust their alleged evidence at that point. Having watched many of these videos, the Canadian police just don’t seem trustworthy to me. I don’t expect them to be open about everything but I feel like it makes some of their evidence very questionable. If you’re going to steal his car then why wouldn’t you just plant some evidence? If you really think he did it…what’s the harm right? Nothing specific about this case, but I just don’t like their tactics. I find them to be as untrustworthy as the criminals they are supposed to be better than.
eff off. Let's hope you have the same bullshit opinion if your loved one gets killed. Police undertook a documented, sanctioned sting including searches. If you have nothing to hide who cares who looks?? Hope you are never on a jury. You would be too busy protecting the rights of the bloody perp and let guilty people walk to streets to continue to do harm.
To start with, the police had to have justification in asking for a warrant to search his home and car. If there was not enough reason the warrant would have been denied.
Yes, it was kept secret from the suspect but even if a warrant is shown to a suspect, they are not physically there to watch what is being looked at or photographed or ultimately found. So your suggestion that something nefarious is going on solely because the person is unaware of the search doesn’t really hold true.
They didn't steal the car because they got a warrant for it.
I'm guessing her parents would disagree with you.
If they legally collected the evidence than you need to accept it. Your job is to hear the evidence and see if it's enough for a conviction of murder. How the police did their job is a whole different case. You are not their to judge the police, you are there to judge the accused.
I don''t understand why the police didn't put a tail on him immediately when she went missing and was last seen with him. That is a critical time. Or had he already disposed of the body before she was reported missing?
They were searching his house extremely hard if they found her ID in a VCR case... If Only They were always that thorough when searching for missing people
Great coverage. I'm from Canada
The fact that so many people have no clue what those letters might represent is the sad evidence of how little publicity these 100ds of missing women and girls receive.
This happened in my home town, and I knew both him and Erin.
32:10 "Before you meet the boss you should probably stand in front of that oddly placed mirror and... umm
.. rehearse telling him everything. If for some reason you hear a beeping, that sound like a low battery indicator on a video camera, coming from behind the mirror dont worry about it. Just let us know, run down to the vending machine and grab yourself a candy bar, then come back up and continue rehearsing." 😂
If you really love someone under no circumstances you don't do something horrible like this even you brake up. You must be happy if she or he is happy with next partener
Wow I’m from Manitoba.. crazy to hear Brandon being mentioned 😱
In 2019 Michael Bridges, was asking the court for early parole based on the 'faint hope clause' which gives offenders convicted before 2011 a chance to ask for reduced sentences after they have served 15 years behind bars. Thursday evening, a jury decided Bridges could apply for early parole in June 2026 instead of 25 years. Canadian [justice] system..😡
The Canadian justice system is a joke 100%. It’s failed so many times
Disgusting!
Anybody else in shock over the police stealing the car & secretly searching his house?! I've never heard of this before & I'm a crime junkie!! Is this legal in only Canada? I've seen plenty on the "Mr Big" operations & I think it should be legal everywhere but the incognito searches is kinda sketch!
I thought they were showing a reenactment of the suspect stealing the car till they proudly said the police stole it
Yea that is extremely concerning.
Hahaha 😂😂😂 hahaha it's french laws i guess
Since the police must have had the entire strategy, including every step and every detail of every search, documented and filmed, it does appear not to be unlawful. Otherwise it would have been called out and dismissed,
I agree they shouldn't be stealing the car, or breaking in his house. But I'm completely fine with the Mr. Big operations, you'd be an idiot to fall for them, and deserve to get caught
What was the element of the ugly stain on the couch?
wine maybe
I know that lawyers are suppose to defend the client but in this case it seems like they lawyer misunderstood his task!!
There's no such thing as a perfect crime - that's an oxymoron. Crimes are so riddled with imperfection, law enforcement may just have to sift through each one - but, that imperfection will cast a dark shadow on the culprit every time.
“Usually it’s a knife fight gone bad,” wtf. That’s a strange sentence that is hard to believe.
I actually heard something similar while watching a British case. Knives are the weapon of choice and even those are regulated there. They don't carry guns or even have them in their homes the way we do in America.
So who wrote the 3 notes to the police ?? It seemed to infer a second individual.
What a sadistic horrible man😢😢. Poor girl😭😭😭. Tyfs God bless you
I am wowed that he was so stupid to not know this was a sting when his lawyer gave him a heads up. Super glad most criminals are dumb.
How did he get away with digging her grave? I’m surprised no one saw him doing it.
Right and how did he only get second degree murder. It took him three different times to kill her and then destroying evidence and went to bed wither lifeless body in the tub. Then desecrated a grave site to hide/burry her body.
I agree if was me I would be seen!
My guess is that he did it at night. probably had a lantern or large flashlight so he could avoid being seen. Gotta give him major props though for using an actual grave. First time I've ever heard of a killer doing that. Normally if there's a graveyard involved in the other cases I've heard of it's either the killer leaves the body in the graveyard but out in the open or they've desecrated a grave to steal the body that was already inside. Got to admit he was rather smart in that respect, since that's one place that police don't normally look for a murder victim since you'd already expect someone to be buried there unless there's suspicion of poison and that person is linked to the suspect and therefore potentially a victim themselves
CoolD83 - It was upgraded to 1st Degree at trial, after all the evidence was in, he got Life w/out parole for 25 years.
He put her into an existing grave
Before I start I'm guessing this is 1 of the world's most evil killers
Guess not a water 1
What an amazing amount of work these detectives and scientific staff do to get a conviction is incredible it's not fair on the family that this psychopath can apply for freedom after 25 yrs there should be no such thing for pre meditated murder he had a choice to save her but chose to save himself instead, how the undercover detectives carry out sting operations are absolutely amazing,
RIP Erin ❤
I find it disturbing that police in Canada can legally break into someone's house, find whatever they need and walk out without the homeowner knowing. I do understand the effectiveness of a search like that but how would anyone know if it's being abused in any way?
Doesn’t matter he still got off with a light sentence
I was under the impression they had a search warrant but didn't want to tip off the suspect
The police can do anything they want to bring evil monsters who take away the young beautiful of a young girl her family and to other lives and take this monster of the face of the earth
Wish Canadian police services anywhere would put a fraction of the efforts that they have engaged in this case for all the MMIWG's that are still missing and waiting to be brought home to their families to rest. Peace be with you Erin. I am so sorry you were cut off from life so soon.
Right? They do not really care about those cases and it is very sickening 😞😞
Do you two idiots realize why they haven’t made any progress there?? The reason they’re missing is because their own people are killing them and the public can’t handle the truth. They desperately wanted it to be some white dudes running around killing them but no it’s their own people and we can’t tell that to the public, doesn’t fit their narrative.
Is that about the Indigenous people's women?
Forgive me, what are MMIWG's? Is that like an MIA or POW? Again apologies for my ignorance.
@@Thornspyre81 I'm in the ignorance boat too, I thought maybe it stood for something to do with all the indigenous people's women that have been disappearing for a really long time
Crazy that Canadian police can break into your home and search it whenever they like AND steal your car.
I watch crime just to unwind, I've learned a hell of a lot but I have a good brain and I'm not going out to use what I've learned.
So sad and such a senseless act. He had many chances to not go through with her murder. Why did he want to do it? Just because they got in an argument? I’m so glad the detectives got him. He deserves to rot in jail forever.
He would obviously be thinking solely about himself. Possibly thinking "I'm gonna get done for attempted murder, better to get done for nothing at all" ... or he just intended, at that precise moment when he had her in a chokehold, to kill her and was just finishing off what he started. Either way, he can't wriggle out of this by saying he had no intention of killing her. That would be spectacularly stupid!
After 4 years the murder receives the punishment
My heart goes out to the families!
Whats that...its like your telling the killer ...oh for the perfect crime , just add water...yeah keep up the good work😒😒😒
The police stole their car and broke in to their house? Dude must have had the worst lawyer in the world.
As said in the show, they had a warrant. Two ways to do this -- how they did it in this show, or what you see on many [country redacted] shows -- in the middle of the night with many cops, a battering ram, lights off and high powered torches shining in occupants eyes, guns drawn, lots of shouting by all the officers involved so that no-one can understand the words, some shots being fired, maybe a death or two, while any not shot are then handcuffed ... then an apology, "Sorry, wrong house."
He was too easily fooled. He was among the only criminals who actually got away with murder. But he was fooled at the last moment
It always is so intriguing to me how some these cases these investigators go ask n and since the just dismiss n just ignore clear evidence
It’s hard to refer to a loved one in the past tense even weeks after you know they are dead.This sting op sounds familiar. I’ve either seen the case somewhere else, or it’s been used by others.
Is it? I've only lost a few loved ones but it was never an issue for me. Hard to accept and move on from their passing, sure but past tense was the easiest part of it for me. (But we're all different, right?) Yeah, I think sting op type deals are used a lot more than we realize. It's always cool, though.
I sometimes refer to people alive and well and in my life in the past tense. Some of these detectives lead people to answer in the past tense as well by asking questions referring to them in the past.. what were they like...what wad the relationship like...etc.
It's a common slip up I believe it's one of the Freudian slips but it's a red flag that they look out for when people talk about somebody in a past tense while everyone else including the police are still looking for them and talking about them and their current state it's a red flag to talk about them in a past tense outside of recalling a memory etc
So if you've seen investigation or interrogation tapes people slip up with this and other Freudian slips all the time. Even body language speaks more volumes Than Words most of the time which is another good thing to look into. It's not admissible in court but when somebody tells you something and they stand strong that's confidence in what they just said when they say something and they immediately put them hands in their pockets or they cross their arms they're protecting themselves from the LIE they just said etc, people can get nervous and stuff like that so they always start off with a simple Baseline of questioning like what's your birthday where did you grow up to see how people react to those kinds of questions and compare that to more intense line of questioning and responses later. etc. cheers
edit: my mom passed away a few months ago and she was my rock and I still talk about her as if she still alive it's natural and uncomfortable to talk about her in the past tense. I still don't want to accept it so my brain triggers my speech pattern to talk about her and what she does instead of what she did, death is really weird.
@@jasondavis1949 i wasn't expecting an pop quiz 😏 i dont feel like rewatching this for that part where he refers to her in the past tense...but this guy is smart enough to cover up and leave no trace but so dumb it's almost fascinating. He definitely had experienced covering up for himself, but had a guilty conscience and was very easily betrayed by it.
As far as the past tense goes, it's one thing to say we had a great time the other night. Or she was crazy as a goat. Compared to I loved her and I love her and what I can remember the past tense in this case was one of the latter.
It's illegal in the states.
This guy has no conscience none whatsoever
I live in the USA , I am not a lawyer or cop but how can they use anything they find in the "stolen" car and then breaking into the house when no one was there? I would think a decent lawyer could get any of that evidence thrown out. Anyone know anything for sure regarding my questions/ concerns?
Canada has different laws. Every country has different laws. I agree with your sentiment that "stealing the car" would be a deal breaker in the USA.
@@paulis7319 I realize it is a completely different country, however I thought their judicial system was nearly the same as here...
Im not sure too but maybe, maybe, there's a law written somewhere mention that the cops can take action if the suspects dont corporate enough.
Why would they not ask for search warrants? It could be suggested this type of thing could lead to planted evidence.
I live in Canada and they def need a warrant. They had one for sure but maybe didn’t want him to know they were executing it. That’s legal.
@12:19: "...A covert search is carried out on the Bridge's car. It is stolen and delivered to the forensic garage of the Brandon police." Lol.
@13:36: "...Meanwhile, the Bridge's family reports the theft of their car to the police. Once the forensic inspection is complete, the car is supposedly 'found' and returned to its owners - who don't suspect a thing." LOL!!!
that's crazy and messed up lol
strange this police department doesn't have any tow trucks
@@zahidkhan5733 They almost certainly chose not to use a tow truck to make sure 100% it looked like it was actually stolen. Imagine how damaging it would be for the investigation if they used a tow truck and a neighbor unknowingly mentioned the tow truck to him after.
It's funny cause i was born in Brandon and I swear the way me and my friends learnt how to drive was by stealing cars lol 😆 ...... maybe it's just a Manitoba thing
Mr. Big. They used that in another famous case. What a disgusting miscreant.
For a teen to disappear for days on end when in party-mode? IMO not typical behaviour. Looking for trouble to keep on seeing someone who had previously assaulted her. Teens should not be left to their own devices; they still need a lot of parental control and guidance. Anyway not wise for a girl/woman to be visiting alone privately with any boy/man - unless married to him.
So by your logic if you are married then he can no longer kill you? I wonder why the significant other is ALWAYS the first to be interviewed…
@@johneberle5733
From what I remember; for an unmarried woman to take protective measures as suggested, is (or at least was in the past) viewed as a matter of common sense; in general agreed upon by our society at large.
Domestic violence and other forms of abuse - inflicted by a spouse - upon their wife or husband - is another matter.
One word: Canada
Very interesting case
he can now watch a crime show with himself in the main role
Suggest researching ‘Freudian slip’
The COPS ..STOLE the car so they cud test it ????? Is that legal ?
Yes, it states they covertly executed a search warrant. Erin was still a missing person, so they didn't want him to know they were investigating him for her murder.
From Michael sitting in a car on the way in connection with a competition to joining a gang…? Did i miss something?
Sports gangs are a slippery slope.
A fascinating case that leads to a shocking and ultimately satisfying conclusion. Kudos for the Great police work Manitoba Police, and very sorry to Erin's mom and loved ones.
Water revealed nothing tough in this case
Whilst it is fascinating as an observer to learn more about the tactics used to ensure justice for a victim, I am not so sure that it is in the public interest to teveal their tactics in such detail. Surely it simply makes it ten times harder for the Police next time around?
Every time a crime show talks about a suspect watching crime shows I’m like 😅
Lol
Covert house searches and vehicle searches !!!! - The defence would have had a field day
Life without parole? Not. It should have been, but they will let this POS out in 25 years.
The police stole the vehicle..? I mean, what? And a covert search? WTH is up with the law enforcement??? Nothing found would be admissable in court. Things must be vastly different in Canada, eh?
Isn't the narrator the same man that narrated that 3 wedding competition show on TLC from years ago lol
Same strategy was used in Australia to capture and convict the murderer of Daniel Morcombe.
They can actually covertly take a car and search a house ??
What's with the "music" in the background? 😬
I'll guess before i reach the end. Life with possibility of parole after 25 years. Pathetic. The fact that parole exists for these heinous murders is not justice. A jury decided Bridges could apply for early parole in June 2026 instead of 25 years - which would have left him behind bars until at least February 2029. Victims and their families always take a back seat to the worst of humanity in Canada.
How did they get by with breaking the law and not have to pay for the damage they did when they stole the van? Also why not just serve warrants this don't make sense 😂
Also a crime junkie... and maybe if the US had a judicial system like Canada people would be less likely to do the horrible shit they do? 🤷♀️
That go crazy
Covert ops is not a common technique in the US.. I find that interesting
I would have a hard time trusting the police if they can break into your house and search it, then put everything back the way they found it (so you never know they were there) without a warrant. I mean the whole purpose of a warrant is to show probable cause; evidence the search warrant is needed for an alleged suspect! I can't imagine how many people were set up or how much evidence has been planted over the years. That is just insane.
Man this is wild stealing a suspects car and breaking into their home when they are gone? That would never fly in the US but I gotta say I know they were doing it for good reason but I had no idea the Canadian police had those abilities to nail someone without a warrant here that’s all inadmissible. Would have loved to see the stupid look on his face when he realized he’d been fooled. It’s similar to a case here where a guy killed one of his best girl friends for old cash she inherited and thought there was a lot more of he also strangled her from behind then the cops picked up a close friend in separate charges and convinced him to record their conversation and same thing full confession on tape that they needed because I don’t believe they ever found her body because he ditched her car next to a bridge to make it look like suicide but these guys just couldn’t keep their mouths shut
Hold on, in Canada they can just take your car without you knowing? And then you report it missing and they still don’t tell you? WTF Canada?
Wait... "bringing her death to justice"? That sounded kinda cryptic.
WAIT ... What??? B&E and stealing a car? I guess they do things differently in Canada! I believe we would get a warrant for both!
They had warrants for it they just did not want him to know they were looking
