As soon as the wife or her family knew that the freak had broken the dogs backs not once,, but twice, she should have been gone. That is a sick person.
Holy smokes! She founded the Fairy Godmother program?! That’s how I got my prom dress my junior and senior year! I would have worn rags, or simply would not have gone to prom without her.
That’s the butterfly effect. Her actions led to your ability to go to the prom and hopefully enjoy yourself. And her brutal murder has touched so many people, such as someone who benefitted from her benevolent nature, like you.
UA-cam comment section is often pretty shitty....but I have to say that is a great post, and a great story. Something real, and although small a fantastic help to yourself, at an important event for a teen. Thanks for posting, that cheered me up no end!! 👍
Imagine how much more she would have done to help people/animals society if she lived? But no instead he's alive sponging off the government the state and whatever. I wonder how much tax payers money it cost to house him there. He's still lying, his dating account "6 foot tall" my ass. His mug shot shows 67inches. That's 5 foot '7 inches Pictures dont lie. Psychopaths do
What a wonderful woman….made Deans list, a teacher, giving back to the community, empowering young children, loved animals. All of this at the age of 29. She deserved better. My heart goes out to her parents who raised such a wonderful woman. May her soul rest in peace.
I agree with you 100%, and your words are all so true, thoughtful, kind, loving, wonderful, and all thee above!!!! Gosh,.. 29 years old as you mentioned too, so so young; SO VERY sad!!! And he just took her away,... from everyone that loved her SO VERY MUCH, without a care in the world!!!! ALL b/c of his selfish, twisted, STUPID, idiotic, disgusting desires, wants, and needs!!! It was all about ME, ME, ME, with Jonathan and he also said to himself everyday since the day he met his amazing wife Sissy that, "I am going to hide the real ME, ME, ME, when it comes to telling Sissy about myself."" B/c she did NOT know the "real" Jonathan whatsoever, b/c if so, she NEVER would have married him even!!! And this was def. proven by the second she did find out about the "real" truth behind who her husband was, she was leaving & divorcing him, and he just couldn't handle it!!!! JUST SO DISGUSTING HE IS, ALL OF IT!!!!! SO HAPPY HE CAN'T HURT ANOTHER WOMAN EVER AGAIN IN SUCH A WAY! MAY HER AMAZING PARENTS, FAMILY & ALL OTHER LOVED ONES THAT KNEW HER FIND SOME PEACE & LOVE WITH CARRYING ON HER MEMORY!!!! R.I.P. "SISSY" ❤️😇❤️😇
The part at 13 minutes in where the mum was talking about the different days of her daughter's life. Made me cry. My heart aches with such profound sadness at the loss. I pray she has found peace.
I know I got choked up .. to be a mother of a murdered daughter .. it's just not ever meant to be .. pain and sorrow here on earth .. peace and love in heaven
The Dads "we don't cry all day, but we cry everyday." That hit me like a brick.. He's completely accurate with his statement. From the minute you wake up till you fall asleep at night, and even in your dreams sometimes, you see your child, you miss them and they never leave the front of your mind. An unfortunate burden that comes along with this pain is the guilt, even when everything and everyone in the world says it wasn't your fault, as a parent you find everyway you could have stopped it, could have changed the outcome.. I do it everyday, most days I replay the night and morning over and over. Before my father passed, he too blamed himself, always saying if I just had you three stay at our house that night, he would still be here, even with us all knowing nothing would have changed the final outcome. I am thankful my son was not taken in such a brutal way and I send all my prayers and love to these parents. Watching the mother's video, I say those things to myself, but it's a little different, it's I'll never see your first day of school, I'll never see you graduate, things like that. Everytime I watch one of these and I listen to these parents I just want to squeeze them, and say how sorry I am and it's not their fault..
It’s exactly as you described. Unfortunately we belong to a “group” of women that no one wants to be a part of. The only thing I think I’ve gotten out of my loss is STRENGTH! I don’t feel strong but I assume I must be if I’m still existing. Sorry for the loss of your son.
I'm so sorry for your loss. my 6yr old daughter passed away in 2018 and I think these things every single day, too. what could I have done differently to change the outcome? it's a pain and thought process that hasn't gone away.
Simonette was an amazing person. Teaching, helping students, giving back to the community, starting an organization helping lower income students, all at 29. My condolences to her parents for raising an extraordinary person. May she rest in eternal peace.
Oh man. The part where her Mama talks about her daughter coming to her and telling her about all her achievements in life, she was so incredibly proud of her beautiful daughter as was her Dad. She was a bright light in the world and it's so sad that her amazing life was stolen.
The first thing I noticed about your channel that I really love: you give a tribute to the victim & their loved ones at the beginning of every video. No one else that I watch does that. Nice work 👍🏻
Yesss that’s sooo true, noticed that also I found the channel last week and love how he elaborates the story and how keeps me soo into it at all times. Awesome true crime story telling channel to enjoy sooo much.
@@arizonamads5588 it is sad that he probably threatened her to keep her from leaving. It’s not as easy as walking away when someone is controlling and dangerous
Her comment about not knowing what real gang members live through wasn’t an indication of an affiliation with gangs…It was an indication of how well read and empathetic she was. RIP and may her mother find as much peace as a situation like this allows.
You’re right. That same empathy is what got her killed. Unfortunately empathy is viewed as a weakness by narcissistic individuals, which this dude seems to be.
Yup because she actually knows many people don’t just choose to go into gangs, they literally have to to stay alive or grew up that way with family members even being in the gang. She knew the difference between wannabes and people that actually lived through a tough life.
@@nicolepaloms3509 yes, because the narcissist knows that appealing to the empath’s ego is crucial for their games to continue. This is why getting “high” on other people’s compliments is a very dangerous thing. If they have the power to bring you up, they have the power to bring you down.
Victim impact statements in True Crime videos are so important because it is a reminder that they were known, loved, and will be forever missed. Some killers get treated as jokes (Lazarus and Wettlaufer interrogations come to mind), but when you hear the impact statements it brings it back and that should be part of the focus.
In no way am I blaming the victim when I say the following. The minute my man breaks my dogs BACKS, TWO TIMES, I know he’s a sociopath and I am taking my dogs and running as far away from that monster as possible!!
Kern M2 : No later then when this happened, him torturing the dog, ANYONE should have immedialtely known, who they were involved with. Education is not always evrerything it takles to maakee good aand rreasonnablle decisions. That poor dog with no one to protect it he had no choice to make, he was relying on Simonette.
That is such a true statement. So many times the lowlifes to take out the best and brightest among us. We need to protect the healthy side of Society better.
Well they say opposites attract..lol..so sad that she didn't stay true to herself that her gut feeling told her something wasn't right and to leave now!
He was punching well above his weight, Simeonette was an absolute beauty. He should have been grateful every single day of his life. What an absolute monster
I get what you mean but maybe saying "punching" above his weight may not be the best choice of words considering the abusive A holes that are covered on here a lot of times.
@@pretorious700 Exactly. Great personality it seems and a wonderful person but beautiful she was not. In fact, kinda ugly. But people will not admit that considering how she died. Truth and honesty mean nothing to them compared to their fee fees
Her mother's video was heartbreaking yet telling she never mentioned watching her get married. Poor family, my thoughts are with you all, and her friends and pupils 💔
Good thing she said not to feel sorry for her. I don't. I think it's hilarious that there is one less worthless fucking teacher wasting my tax dollars LMFAO
Why would a widower refuse to hand over personal stuff that belonged to his late wife? Sounds like he had already given some of it away or even pawned her jewelry! The fact that he spent time with escorts when he was basically still a newlywed makes it look as if he married Simeonette for nefarious reasons (to pay the rent, bills and groceries) and not because of love.
wow the second someone Im with breaks our pets back, Im gone. I will never accept anyone who harms animals, that is a sign to me that they are less compassionate and empathetic as I am willing to accept in my life. This man should never get out, he was a liar from day one to his wife and he didnt deserve her, may he rot in prison forever.
What a beautiful epitaph her mother gave... Mom's love. No love more important or stronger than a parents love..... I've been blessed with great parents....
How can someone break their innocent pet dogs' backs not once but twice ?? I hope some animal lover who is in the same jail as him , hears of it and breaks the bloody rascal's back .
He was my highschool english teacher. He was very well loved by all the kids and teachers. He was very good friends with my mom who worked at my highschool in Brooklyn. His wife was absolutely lovely and hilarious. She was my friends cheerleading coach. All these years later and I still can't believe this.
Personally I’m not a fan of the titles that say stuff like “the murder of ____” I don’t think they should be remembered just by what someone else did to them. The perpetrator needs to be shamed
I'm the mother of a daughter, that I was told that I never be able to have, due health problems, and her birth was a miracle. She's now married, and the mother of my two grandchildren, and the young girl's Momma's video just really tugged at my heart. I don't think that I could have been as strong in the video as she was, and when she almost cried, that got me. When you carry another human being inside you, you get to know that little person, and then when you gift that little person life, and watch them grow up, only to have someone do something horrific to them just doesn't seem real. I know that I would either be wanting to be where my daughter was, or I'd be finding a way to make this guy pay dearly, only my granddaughters would keep me sane, because they would need me to be there whole for them. I only wish that someone told her to leave after what he did to those 2 innocent Fur Babies for no reason, just to be evil, that she, or someone else could be next, and unfortunately she was. It always seems like the brightest light is snuffed out, while the darkness gets to roam free until hopefully it's caught. She's in heaven now, and I hope those Fur Babies were given to a better home. He was pure evil. I just had to add, to show how evil he is, he broke those precious, innocent Fur Babies backs twice, for no good reason, and there's no reason to do that, and put them through unmentionable pain, twice, and they're going to be in pain, and have problems with their little backs, for the rest of their precious lives, so if he could do that to 2 innocent Fur Babies, and we all know that some killers are sadistic too, and even kill innocent animals just because, so what's a innocent human life to them? He's beyond pure evil. If he had killed those poor Fur Babies, and NO!, I am not saying that should have been done at all, but if he had, that would have been a kind act for a monster like him, and he couldn't do it, so he had no problem killing a promising human being, with her whole life ahead of her, and then mentally torturing her parents.
The recollections of Simeonette’s mother were very touching... it’s clear how loved she was by her family and it’s obvious that she was a good person who wanted to have a positive impact on those around her.
Seeing the Dad talk at 21:25 was really touching. It's easy to get desensitized watching videos like this but hearing a family member speak like this is so raw and you really get a sense of what he's going through.
I'm single father for 6 yrs and have 3 children and now they have all grown up...even after divorce, I had never cheated my ex-wife though they were many opportunities. Now i'm looking for a perfect partner to love, cherish her and grow old together. My wife was a doing drugs and cheated on me and I gave her so many chances to get sober, I can forgive her regarding the cheating but she never understood how much I love her but in the end there was no other way but divorce her... now i'm living alone and asking God for a good, sincere women to love, cherish and to grow old with.
I don't understand.....how can dating women after the divorce be cheating...? Sounds like you never got over her for 6 years plus still sound so hurt even now and you do not sound like a man ready for someone new at all
@@davidlalhmingmawia2388 Fair and honest answer...okay so she crushed you and left you and you think you still love her? My Darling please go for counselling...you will see how you can move on I wish nothing but happiness for you....and love from Canada
Wait you mean to tell me she worked in the “bad part of Brooklyn “ and nothing ever happened to her? But yet she gets killed by her own husband under her own ROOF??? Wow 😮
Simonette was a literal Saint! She helped so many people in her short life. I wish she never met Jonathan. She deserved a world better than him. If someone harms your furbabies get out then. Anyone who could do something so horrible to a precious dog is capable of much worse.
“So yea, um….. basically I drove around Staten Island all morning into the afternoon. At the very least it was SIX! different stores, 5 shoe stores, 1 Home Depot. Funny thing is I didn’t like anything changed my mind and never bought anything…… so after a mid morning movie by myself because that’s totally normal. Aside from that I wasn’t very productive and to be honest I really haven’t done a MF THING since I my wife sleeping at home first thing this am”. Oh…..??? What??? Doesn’t that seem like it could have maybe happened? It could have really happened just like I told you.
What a bright light she brought into the world. Imagine the love she would have spread in her life. Her time was cut short by a cowardly act and everyone else is so much worse off. So horrific.
He broke his dogs backs??? That’s horrifically foul knowing that dogs love unconditionally. My dog gyrates on my nerves sometimes but I’d willingly suffocate before I’d break his back.
Why are you making his comment into anything other than what it was? As if a poor dog getting it's back broken isn't fucking awful and sad. How does that comment take anything away from the tragedy of the woman's murder? You sound like you have a complex and just couldn't handle someone focusing on an animal. As if they shouldn't matter compared to "a real person". Get over it!
Are you sure John Goodman ? I am hearing someone for sure....can't put my finger on it...Gee thanks for making me to try and figure out who this voice reminds me of....lol lol lol
This story was told so very well especially for her husband being such a worthless pos!!! I only hope to half as great as Sissy or her incredible parents! I’m so sorry for their horrific loss and all the pain they habitually feel but I must applaud how well they are doing it and as a husband and wife! God Bless Sissy and the Mapes family....
Yes let’s judge her and not the killer when you know nothing of what he was doing to her prior and she’s dead. Let’s speak about someone who can’t fight back. So kind. So intelligent. How honorable.
Ah yes, let’s ignore him abusing animals because she’s scared’ after the first time she should of either left him or given the dogs away, what if it were kids instead of dogs and she was’ scared’ ? Yes just leave the man to continue abusing them and not call for help, because of being ‘scared’ SMH
Great parents great woman , one really gets so tearful listening to them talking, how they couldn’t see through him Breaking a dog’s back is a warning sign!
My heart is heavy for you, Mom. Mine would have not been strong enough I don't think. I know you will never let her memory die.. God bless you and your family, Mom. I know she felt loved in life. 💗
God my heart goes out to her family. Me hearing her dad say it's a new normal made my heart sink. I've been trying to create a new normal since my boyfriend of 15yrs was killed in a hit & run 2 miles from our house. It's been so so hard. So that hit hard for me. PIP Simeonette & my baby Jon
If you haven’t lost your love ones yet you won’t understand the feelings and imagine losing them in such a horrible way knowing what they went through 💔😭😭
What a wonderful woman. She was so forgiving and had such a huge heart. A much better person than me because I would have taken a baseball bat to him if he had harmed my dog like that. Her poor family. Sending out hugs to all of them.
First off, my heart goes out to Simonette and all her loved ones, especially her parents. What a true loss to this world. As for the monster who did this, he should have been held accountable for breaking the backs of the dogs! I hope he is miserable every single day of his life!

Wow, I’ve heard of the Fairy Godmother Project…what beautiful things she did in her little time here!
What a beautiful epitaph her mother gave... Mom's love. No love more important or stronger than a parents love..... I've been blessed with great parents....
Yep, me too, thank God!
Her mother’s tribute is beautiful. ❤️
I'm teaching my grandkids to learn to override that "in love" feeling!! So many people (women especially) are too slow to follow their instincts!
That “falling in love”’feeling your your common sense leaving your body.
@@cherylbritt7227 😅
Teenagers are not gonna take advise from an old hag.
How can someone break their innocent pet dogs' backs not once but twice ?? I hope some animal lover who is in the same jail as him , hears of it and breaks the bloody rascal's back .
at that stage I would have asked for divorce.
At that stage my "husband" would mysteriously disappear
He was a sadistic freak, can’t believe he faced no consequences for that!
@@soxpeewee I can't guarantee that nothing horrible would happen to someone trying to hurt my animals.
Yeah, sure do hope those animals’ suffering is avenged…..
What a ghastly man, keep him in for as long as you can!
Never let this psychopath free.
I hope that her mom can find peace someday. Even a little. My heart weights a ton now that I just watched the clip of her recalling all those days.
💔💔💔
The father talking after the verdict, is heart breaking too...
He was my highschool english teacher. He was very well loved by all the kids and teachers. He was very good friends with my mom who worked at my highschool in Brooklyn. His wife was absolutely lovely and hilarious. She was my friends cheerleading coach. All these years later and I still can't believe this.
Her mother’s tribute was so beautiful.
Her mother just straight broke my heart 💔 ... RIP.
The title of this should be about her, not him.
Agree with you 💯
Agree
Cope
Personally I’m not a fan of the titles that say stuff like “the murder of ____” I don’t think they should be remembered just by what someone else did to them. The perpetrator needs to be shamed
He killed her sooooo😳
My heart goes out to the mother in this vid, what a beautiful eulogy, such a tragic loss for this women her grief is tacit. RIP Simeonette.
When the mom was remembering all the special days(of many) it was so precious and heartfelt. Peace to all!
The video of her mom is so touching and special.
Man, this is heartbreaking and horrific. Deepest respects and sympathies for the family and friends. May she be remembered forever. 🙏✌
The video of her mom, talking about the memories man killed me.. no mother / father should ever have to experience this
That was such a genuine video from her Mom ❤️
I instantly thought the husband did it when the video played out.
Agreed, you could feel her moms pain. So unfortunate
What a loss over the sin of lust. May God bless her and keep her.🙏❤️
that video her mom made, really hurt me to watch. i can’t imagine the pain she goes through every single day.
Mom's video message is so beautiful. I could see Simonette in those memories. I can feel the love for her in Mom's voice.
She seemed like a really beautiful person. Always makes me sad because he could have gotten a divorce
awww the poor parents. she looked like her dad.
I know the family personally and this was such a devastating tragedy!
The song they play during 04:48 really slaps *ss.
Anyone knows the song?
@@nr1NPC when I hear music is the song.Debbie Deb is the artist
That poor mom. She was so proud of her baby girl.
What a deeply empathetic and self-sacrificing person she was. Both angels and demons walk among us.
Right 😢
That mother’s video statement was so powerful, almost cutting onions rn
Dang...so much accomplished in such a short life. Her poor parents. God bless their hearts. 😢 RIP Simeonette.
May God give some peace to Simeonette's parents. They raised such a lovely daughter, a beautiful person.
I'm the mother of a daughter, that I was told that I never be able to have, due health problems, and her birth was a miracle. She's now married, and the mother of my two grandchildren, and the young girl's Momma's video just really tugged at my heart. I don't think that I could have been as strong in the video as she was, and when she almost cried, that got me. When you carry another human being inside you, you get to know that little person, and then when you gift that little person life, and watch them grow up, only to have someone do something horrific to them just doesn't seem real. I know that I would either be wanting to be where my daughter was, or I'd be finding a way to make this guy pay dearly, only my granddaughters would keep me sane, because they would need me to be there whole for them. I only wish that someone told her to leave after what he did to those 2 innocent Fur Babies for no reason, just to be evil, that she, or someone else could be next, and unfortunately she was. It always seems like the brightest light is snuffed out, while the darkness gets to roam free until hopefully it's caught. She's in heaven now, and I hope those Fur Babies were given to a better home. He was pure evil. I just had to add, to show how evil he is, he broke those precious, innocent Fur Babies backs twice, for no good reason, and there's no reason to do that, and put them through unmentionable pain, twice, and they're going to be in pain, and have problems with their little backs, for the rest of their precious lives, so if he could do that to 2 innocent Fur Babies, and we all know that some killers are sadistic too, and even kill innocent animals just because, so what's a innocent human life to them? He's beyond pure evil. If he had killed those poor Fur Babies, and NO!, I am not saying that should have been done at all, but if he had, that would have been a kind act for a monster like him, and he couldn't do it, so he had no problem killing a promising human being, with her whole life ahead of her, and then mentally torturing her parents.
The recollections of Simeonette’s mother were very touching... it’s clear how loved she was by her family and it’s obvious that she was a good person who wanted to have a positive impact on those around her.
I felt for the father, my prayers goes to the family. I can just imagine the pain they going through cos such loss can never go away.
Seeing the Dad talk at 21:25 was really touching. It's easy to get desensitized watching videos like this but hearing a family member speak like this is so raw and you really get a sense of what he's going through.
Oh my god, her mums video is one of the saddest things I’ve ever seen. If I could take a moment of pain from this incredible lady, I would. 💔
She changed people's life for the better and her husband took hers. It is devastating. I don't even know her and I'm crying.
It's like these people have never,before,heard the word DIVORCE..😳
The Dad, just an ordinary bloke, struck me as the kind of guy that makes America something special. The light on the hill.
The video from her mother was heartbreaking. May Simeonette rest in peace
I'm single father for 6 yrs and have 3 children and now they have all grown up...even after divorce, I had never cheated my ex-wife though they were many opportunities. Now i'm looking for a perfect partner to love, cherish her and grow old together. My wife was a doing drugs and cheated on me and I gave her so many chances to get sober, I can forgive her regarding the cheating but she never understood how much I love her but in the end there was no other way but divorce her... now i'm living alone and asking God for a good, sincere women to love, cherish and to grow old with.
I don't understand.....how can dating women after the divorce be cheating...? Sounds like you never got over her for 6 years plus still sound so hurt even now and you do not sound like a man ready for someone new at all
@@raintree3383 Yeah...deep in my heart, I still love her, but taking her back after 6 yrs is out of the question.
@@davidlalhmingmawia2388 Fair and honest answer...okay so she crushed you and left you and you think you still love her? My Darling please go for counselling...you will see how you can move on I wish nothing but happiness for you....and love from Canada
May you get the woman you deserve, may you make each other happy for the rest of your days 🙏🏾💜
Wait you mean to tell me she worked in the “bad part of Brooklyn “ and nothing ever happened to her? But yet she gets killed by her own husband under her own ROOF??? Wow 😮
Simonette’s mother’s video to her was heartbreaking, I cried ❤️❤️
Sadly she didn’t follow her own advice on looking after herself.She was too kind ❤️.
Simonette was a literal Saint! She helped so many people in her short life. I wish she never met Jonathan. She deserved a world better than him. If someone harms your furbabies get out then. Anyone who could do something so horrible to a precious dog is capable of much worse.
“So yea, um….. basically I drove around Staten Island all morning into the afternoon. At the very least it was SIX! different stores, 5 shoe stores, 1 Home Depot. Funny thing is I didn’t like anything changed my mind and never bought anything…… so after a mid morning movie by myself because that’s totally normal. Aside from that I wasn’t very productive and to be honest I really haven’t done a MF THING since I my wife sleeping at home first thing this am”.
Oh…..??? What??? Doesn’t that seem like it could have maybe happened? It could have really happened just like I told you.
Her parents....so heartbreaking to see their pain and anguish. God be with them.
She sounded amazing. What an utter shame.
What a bright light she brought into the world. Imagine the love she would have spread in her life. Her time was cut short by a cowardly act and everyone else is so much worse off. So horrific.
Her father's words at the end... so tragic. RIP BEAUTIFUL LADY 💜💛💚💙
The mother recalling all those precious memories and her daughters milestones is absolutely heartbreaking
Much respect to her mother, making sure that POS can't have anything he wants even though he's in prison. Her calling about his "ad", good on her.
The mom’s message made me cry. 😪 I’m so sorry for your loss of your sweet daughter.
He broke his dogs backs??? That’s horrifically foul knowing that dogs love unconditionally. My dog gyrates on my nerves sometimes but I’d willingly suffocate before I’d break his back.
The dogs are what you're focused on?🙄 People and dogs these days... Of course it's horrifying and sad, but they aren't PEOPLE like Simonette was!
Why are you making his comment into anything other than what it was? As if a poor dog getting it's back broken isn't fucking awful and sad. How does that comment take anything away from the tragedy of the woman's murder?
You sound like you have a complex and just couldn't handle someone focusing on an animal. As if they shouldn't matter compared to "a real person".
Get over it!
Please shut up Karen, you can acknowledge both, can’t stand you weirdo people who literally get jealous because someone shows empathy to animals.
Aww..my condolences to Simeonette's friends,and family.
Lord God be with her Mom and Dad..❤
Can i just say this narrators voice is gorgeous. You sound like John goodman.
Great upload.
RIP John, awesome guy
Are you sure John Goodman ? I am hearing someone for sure....can't put my finger on it...Gee thanks for making me to try and figure out who this voice reminds me of....lol lol lol
@@Iam.myowndistraction He isn't dead...it was a hoax I am happy to report
@@raintree3383 you’re right 😃just read it…. Thank you for the info 😊
@@Iam.myowndistraction No problem...and hello from Canada !!!
Seeing her mother in her video just breaks my heart 😢🙏🏼 RIP sweet Simeonette. Such a hard pill to swallow. 🙏🏼💖🙏🏼💖🙏🏼😢😢😢😢😢😢🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This story was told so very well especially for her husband being such a worthless pos!!! I only hope to half as great as Sissy or her incredible parents! I’m so sorry for their horrific loss and all the pain they habitually feel but I must applaud how well they are doing it and as a husband and wife! God Bless Sissy and the Mapes family....
The most is beautiful 😢her words were truly love and despair, yet acceptance, what a strength
How the funk she could't notice warning signs?? I mean, if your husband kills your dog divorce is a minimum you should do
Maybe she was afraid he is obviously a monster
Yes let’s judge her and not the killer when you know nothing of what he was doing to her prior and she’s dead. Let’s speak about someone who can’t fight back. So kind. So intelligent. How honorable.
Ah yes, let’s ignore him abusing animals because she’s scared’ after the first time she should of either left him or given the dogs away, what if it were kids instead of dogs and she was’ scared’ ? Yes just leave the man to continue abusing them and not call for help, because of being ‘scared’ SMH
Mrs. Mapes
Thank You for sharing these wonderfully sweet and personal life moments with us.
God Bless and Be with you all.
🙏🕊🙏🕊🙏🕊🙏🕊🙏🕊🙏
Great parents great woman
, one really gets so tearful listening to them talking, how they couldn’t see through him Breaking a dog’s back is a warning sign!
My heart is heavy for you, Mom. Mine would have not been strong enough I don't think. I know you will never let her memory die.. God bless you and your family, Mom. I know she felt loved in life. 💗
This one was tough to watch. Much love and respect to the Family.
You guys at TFF produce and present these cases with so much compassion and respect.
God my heart goes out to her family. Me hearing her dad say it's a new normal made my heart sink. I've been trying to create a new normal since my boyfriend of 15yrs was killed in a hit & run 2 miles from our house. It's been so so hard. So that hit hard for me. PIP Simeonette & my baby Jon
If you haven’t lost your love ones yet you won’t understand the feelings and imagine losing them in such a horrible way knowing what they went through 💔😭😭
So true, stay strong and remember the good times 💞
"I don't want anyone to feel sorry me...." should I not feel bad during or after I finish bawling my eyes out...
What a wonderful woman. She was so forgiving and had such a huge heart. A much better person than me because I would have taken a baseball bat to him if he had harmed my dog like that. Her poor family. Sending out hugs to all of them.
My God her mother's video brought me to tears. A parent should never EVER bury their child. So heartbreaking I can't imagine 💔
It's obvious that he didn't deserve her, but he still thinks he has more value than her life...
You handle these cases with compassion and grace. Love watching your videos.
I'll never understand why be in a relationship if your gona cheat
First off, my heart goes out to Simonette and all her loved ones, especially her parents. What a true loss to this world. As for the monster who did this, he should have been held accountable for breaking the backs of the dogs! I hope he is miserable every single day of his life!
An intense, well documented with video, report on this case. Rubs the heart like a cheese grater.
