Police can be the killer so investigate the police officers because they put and push the innocent man to go to jail
What a lousy TV show.
Can you put ANYMORE ADS on your videos? RIDICULOUS! UNSUBSCRIBED!
Please help me I have one of the worst cold cases in History.
@@chonqmonk What is the problem?
Not only were the police ruining the lives of innocent people, they were causing emotional whiplash for Angie’s mother. What a cluster….
How did 48 hours not spend ANY TIME talking about the actual guy who did it⁉️🤦♂️
@@Ze_Moose These episodes are filmed well in advance, sometimes by years. The perpetrator was not discovered until after this production was aired several years ago. The update was a footnote at the end.
@@Ze_Mooseolder case. This is a rerun with an update
Yep false confession never gets justice for the victim
The police do not adjudicate. The courts determine guilt or innocence.
Every single person involved with putting Chris in prison should be held accountable for what they did. It's obvious watching the interrogation that they are coaching him on what to say. Absolutely disgusting. TWENTY YEARS IN PRISON FOR SOMETHING HE DIDN'T DO.
@@get_fit_with_steffy1961 thats totally being rude and an effed up thing to say.
@denisemarie3734 defo not being rude that could have been the reason he didnt understand what was going on. But whatever i never insulted him i said he looks like he doesnt understand alot of the time what is goin on.
@@get_fit_with_steffy1961 girl you said he looks slow, I am guessing from 1961 you may not be up with the times but that is not okay to say these days. What you said in your second comment "maybe he didn't understand what is going on" is fine, but people don't "look slow." Thats effed up and you should learn how to be more sensitive.
Chris was a vulnerable 18 y.o. kid who was ramrodded by the cops.
@denisemarie3734 its a culture thing not an argument my son has learning difficulties and my family call him slow, were i come from saying that someone is slow is not an insult. If you took it offensive thats up to u. Im not going back n forth with u.
Wow, Carol is such an incredible woman. I actually teared up when she was the first person to hug Chris after he was released. Her grief and trauma has not blinded her to the facts of the case, and her devotion for justice is really moving. This was such a remarkable story.
It's one beautiful outcome of this tragic case. It shows levels of compassion and care that are beyond comprehension.
She lost her daughter but gained a son through Chris, it’s a beautiful outcome in the midst of such a traumatic case!
Well said
Yes that was an extraordinary moment, specially considering what they both lost.
And ofc, because they both lost so much, over the same case, that was exactly why they hugged.
I had to fight back the tears as well, all those years in prison for a crime that you didn't commit.
There's a big difference between "finding out the truth" and railroading someone into a confession.
Does not matter if people would think you are guilty don’t talk to police without a lawyer. At first I use to say if you are innocent why not talk to police, but after watching so many interrogations and true crime documentaries, I changed my mind and don’t you ever speak with police without an attorney.
Same! I was taught honesty with cops. But since watching these things so often. I feel especially if you’re innocent, you want a lawyer even more IMO
It is your LEGAL RIGHT for a reason. USE IT.
@@YowzaBowzaWowzathat's a heavily populated Mormon community they probably worked with the cops. Disgusting.
Yep! “Excuse me, I want my lawyer” that’s it. Don’t say anything!
Me too.
Someone needs to be held accountable for making guesses and ruining people’s lives. I don’t understand how this system continues to operate without repercussions.
I guess the system can't go against himself. I wish her mum some closure, and Chris the best he can.
Corruption. The 🐷🐷🐷 stick together and protect each other. And they have plenty of power-hungry, ego-driven criminals in politics to cover their crimes. Despicable.
Agreed
my family refuses to do any dna ancestry, its not worth it if they somehow mistakenly link our family.
One DNA sample but hunting three assailants so they can justify incarcerating an innocent man who didn't match the sample? And not even the decency to admit they manipulated him when it all came out.
Now 48 hrs should do a "The rest of the story" on this case. I would love to see how the arrest was played out.
One thing I hate about the police is the fact that when they do get it wrong and it's proven that they were wrong, they hardly ever apologize and nothing happens to any of the officers. If you throw somebody in prison I can guarantee you by the time they get out there going to be a completely different person and not for the good
Fortunately chris received 11/7m dollar as compensation
This is why you never ever, ever, EVER talk to the police. Get an attorney and go from there.
Don't talk to the police, and don't listen to the police! They can and will lie to you.
Yep.
A lot of innocent people are in jail.
I must concur with your statement. If ever a cop starts asking questions when you are pulled over, of course just stay calm and pleasant, and answer but never volunteer information. If ever in a situation when being questioned, never speak until you have legal counsel and let the lawyer(s) do the work they are paid to do. That right to remain silent should be taken very seriously.
How clever !
Amen.
It’s terrifying to think of how many innocent people are in jail for a crime they didn’t commit. It can happen to anyone. And thank goodness there are people willing to fight for those they believe are innocent.
There should be an age limit, of say 30 in men and 20 in women (ha ha) where police are not allowed to speak to immature people without a lawyer, ever. Or better yet, anyone, ever. It should be a law. No interrogations of people without a lawyer present. If they can't find evidence because brainwashing is easier, then they need to go back to training and/or the FBI Academy.
Yes, especially the poor and those who are mentally challenged. They cannot afford decent representation. Those young defense attorneys have massive caseloads. They aren’t able to spend much time on each of their cases. More and more prisoners have been found to be innocent. Unfortunately, there are many more who have died before receiving justice. The judicial system in this country is dismal and needs a major overhaul. I don’t think it will happen in my lifetime.
Yeah, most of those interrogations are meant to nail you innocent or not. Thank God for the innocence program.
This is why the death penalty is immoral. Because there's always a chance an innocent person is being executed.
@@kathleenwyatt563 it will never happen at all. The system was deliberately designed that way.
Carol is an amazing lady. Michael Usry is an amazing guy as well. Seeing these people come together to help Chris really redeems my hope in the human race.
❤❤❤
I was 15 and with a buddy, also 15, and we were in downtown Seattle. A homeless bum asked for money for beer. We gave him a couple dollars. He returned with a six pack. We did not drink any beer. Cops picked us up, took us to the police station, and demanded we confessed in writing to something. They said they'd throw us in jail for life if we didn't confess. So we wrote a false confession that we drank some beer. We were taken to juvenile court and put on probation until we were 18 for doing nothing. My naive mother let them get away with it. My friend's father got a lawyer and they dropped the case against him. I was then dragged to probation officers and a social worker every 2 weeks for 3 years. For doing nothing.
❤ You'd make a great victim's advocate or casa worker helping youth in the court system! It's terrible what happened to you.
Wait what????! Why did they pick you guys up after the homeless guy? Im confused
This was before Miranda. Cops were more abusive.@@EsEm312
wow, that's sad...I'm from that area and they know how many bums there are. Plus, you drank a beer...big whoop. Whatever happened to the bum? He was the one illegally panhandling!
@@EsEm312 me too...Seattle is filled with homeless people doing scams. Why arrest some teens?
Police officers should be about finding justice, not closing cases! The behavior of that police department sickens me! It makes it more difficult to support, law-enforcement!
There are people who've been executed and still in prison who were innocent because of bad police investigation.
I think most of us would have thought we were in the right track
No. Police can only find justice through questioning different people and searching under all un-turned stones. They can't find the killer without thoroughly looking into everything and everyone. This is part of the process. Support police. There's no way you'd find a killer without suspecting different people at first. That's all part of the process and everyone needs to realize that.
Currently, 45,000 innocent Americans are serving long term prison sentences according to the ACLU.
The way I thought I understood the turn of events on this is that at one point they realized they were barking up the wrong tree, but kept trudging down the same path anyway. That is just so wrong, and officers need to be held accountable for their actions in the strictest sense by their leaders (and the courts), instead of just sweeping things under the rug and then later saying "Sorry, we got it wrong. Okay, you're free to go now." The response to that should be: "No, wait a minute sir, there is another kind of 'reconcilement' that needs to take place on this yet."
The mom lost a daughter but she gained two beautiful sons. It will never replace Angie but I hope that gives her what little comfort it can.
I definitely think it gives her comfort 😊
Yes, I was thinking the same. It's nice of Mike to stay in touch with her
@@msjadhav5192 he's a top bloke I reckon
What an intelligent and loving mother to not base her feelings on the information given based on anger.
My heart breaks for Carol and Chris. Couldnt hold back my tears watching this episode. Mike, Chris & Carol now has a life long friendship and a bond that will keep Carol going. May God continue to bless them.
I just read that Chris died in November of this year. So sad.
Chris Tapp “had an attorney” and that is how he was interrogated??? Where was his attorney?
LOL right 😂
Those were exactly my thoughts as I watched. It possibly reflects the quality of his attorney.
I'll bet this factored in somehow to the original conviction as well, especially about the coercion claim. What a mess!
I don't know how things are in US but at least in my country, if you have an attorney provided by the State, it is as good as not having an attorney. The quality of talent is low and they are disinterested. But the bright side is that nothing you say to the police is admissible in a court of law even if you confess. It may lead to discovery of evidence and even then your confession is inadmissible. Everything has to be proved in the court. Confessions are admissible only if made to a Magistrate. But yes, the police is the same even here and justice is elusive.
@@missangie001…to say the least. My initial comment read: note to self: if you hire an attorney and learn he once represented Chris Tapp….RUN!!!😵💫!
Every case I see like this, I’m reminded of what a homicide detective told me: if you’re arrested, say nothing other than your name, and to request a lawyer.
Omg.... Watching her Mom hug Chris at the end completely broke me! What a strong woman and I'm so thankful he is out and free...
These polygraphers & Idaho Falls detectives that coerced this innocent man, and brainwashed him into serving over 20yrs….need to go to prison themselves! It’s the only way they’ll stop railroading innocent people, an example needs to be made!
You should make a follow up and show the killer and how he was finally caught.
I sincerely hope they do this. Or maybe Mike will make a documentary and include that part.
If I heard correctly the real killers father was an Usery. He was adopted.
I could tell almost immediately that the young man was coerced to confess. That detective fed him the crime bit by bit. So sad because they’re are multiple victims in this case. RIP Angie ❤️🙏
Right?! It took me seconds of seeing the so called "confession" to understand it was coerced, but somehow it took everyone involved YEARS to reach this conclusion
I don’t think people realize how much of a difference having 34 out of 35 DNA markers means that could be an entire generation of different family members that he doesn’t even know he has
As a woman from NYC, if I see another crime show that begins with, "... in this quaint cozy place where no one locked their doors and everyone knew each other, the unthinkable happened..." I am going to tear my hair out.
Try this: a small southern town where everyone knew each other and y’all y’all and so on.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
BTW 48 Hours is the gold standard for true crime story telling. What every youtuber in the genre shoots for. This show is 1 of the ONLY things I miss from watching regular television (I haven't watched regular "TV" in yearssss lol).
You dnt watch telly, but you wear a mask
@@jr7845wait, it's been a while... did the cable companies or networks start issuing out masks out to their customers!?
@@jr7845that mask might as well have the words “I’m a mindless sheep” on it
Lol yes me too it's been a while 10 years
000
I am so glad, the murderer was found and is now in prison!
And I am very happy for Chris having received $ 11,7 million for compensation...
who was the killer? was he related to that 34/35 DNA guy?
Brian Leigh Dripps 42:33 they mention it here.
Damn right
@@kamillem802no
How? The judge offered him the 20 years so he can’t be compensated. So he’d still have it on his record that he’s a murderer
Those investigators should go to prison and spent life in prison or give up the pension. What a mess?
That chief of police is a criminal.
It breaks my heart to see/hear mothers talk about how they miss their son/daughter. It makes me think about my own mother and what she witness through my various stages of intoxication, blackout, overdose, rehab, seizures, and it makes me realize what I put her through. I love you mom and I hope you know I am and trying to do better.
Updates on the case: Brian Dripps got sentenced to life in prison. Eligible for parole after 20 years.
Chris Tapp sued the city of Idaho Falls and their police department, winning an $11.7 million settlement.
Hope this brings some kind of ending to others.
Great to hear Chris can live the second part of his life in comfort although it will never give him back the best years of his life ... his youth
Update on the update... Christopher Conley Tapp passed away on November 5, 2023
@@tanjameijer589 how awful. So he didn't get the chance to enjoy the comfortable life that the money would have given him?
@freedomofspeech766 Nop he didn't get a real change. Really sad to see.
Good thing all the taxpayers paid that eleven million. The police didn't change at all.
The police acted completely unethically in this case. However DNA tests are an EXTREMELY valuable tool in the fight against people who commit really evil deeds - obviously when used in an ethical way…
Anyone in law enforcement, works with law enforcement, attended any law enforcement academy should have their DNA took and entered in a DNA Data too. The Golden State Killer was a former Police Officer
It's so frustrating! I'd be thrilled if my DNA helped track down a killer, but it's impossible to trust the people who have access to DNA info, and you never know when something like this is going to happen, instead >>
You can be guilty and pass a lie detector test...NEVER SPEAK TO POLICE WITHOUT A LAWYER...NEVER...
@@genevabecker8441 .... True! ... those w/o a conscience, i.e. sociopaths, psychopaths, ect., do not have empathy and do not have a conscience. Thus, they can pass a lie detector test.
@@genevabecker8441 DNA technology is AMAZING in my opinion, but just like any technology it need to be used sensibly and professionally. We wouldn't just let anyone fly a plane, would we?
Incompetence in cases like this. Should be criminal..
What’s truly concerning to me is that 48 hours was more concerned about the dude who didn’t spend any time in jail than the murdered girl and the guy falsely imprisoned.
You should always get a lawyer when the cops want to talk to you
He had a lawyer.
@@ellaw356 Then he needed a more competent one.
Wasn't present for the interrogation. After that it doesn't matter
and listen to what that lawyer tells you.
What are you saying?! Is it right??... It cannot be the truth!
I hope the show does a follow up on the arrest and conviction of the actual killer. Im sure there is so much more to this story. Sedning prayers for the victim's family and the wrongly accused men and their families. So much pain, loss and destroyed lives. 💔🙏
This is without a doubt the strangest 48 hours episode I have ever watched.. and I’ve watched hundreds..!
IKR??? I've watched them all - 20/20, Dateline, 48 Hours.... All these news magazine shows
This is crazy , good for you48 hours for continually exposing incompetent /corrupt detectives .
An error is possible in any situation.
Fortunately everything was cleared.
Damned corrupt police officers.
Rest in peace, Angie.
Carol is a brave and compassionate woman. Good for her.
That judge is honest. I'm very glad that he took Chris's case.
I didn't know about Judges for Justice. What an amazing group.
Chris died Nov of 2023
Although I'm generally a Peter Van Sant fan, I'd like to give props to Anne-Marie Green for her presentation of this story. ❤
I'm a St. Louis Blues fan and do also give props to mrs. Green
As tragic as this story is, Chris Taps coerced confession and made up friend "Mike" led to this director and Angie's mother finding eacb other which led to her Mom educating herself more about DNA making her an unlikely ally to Chris and contributing to the cause to set him free. What a story. I really hope Angie gets justice and that this police department admits they made a mistake that hurt a lot of innocent people.
Also, how hard would it be to have investigated Chris friends to find who this Mike was? Did they try to collaborate his story?
Edit: just read they found the guilty person and apologized to Chris, in addition to rewarding him S11 million. Cheers!
They found the real killer but couldn't be prosecuted because of some legal mumbo jumbo.
@@sadiyasaleh233 I almost thumb down your comment but I'm really thumb down to legal mumbo jumbo keeping dangerous people free
Chris died a suspicious death in Nov 2023, shortly after, his wife died in a car accident.
Adding more layer of “hmmmm” to this case….
@@stephanied9629 The problem with being awarded a huge, beyond life-changing amount of money in a public way, is that everyone knows you have it, and they come out of the woodwork to get it, it tends to change all of your close relationships in a disturbing way, and more than one public lottery winner has been murdered by a person who got close to them and usually gained their trust in some way. I don't know enough about the facts surrounding their deaths to say for sure either way - but given those lottery winner murders, I wouldn't be surprised either.
He didn't exactly "win" much in his case, considering I'm not sure most people would accept 20 years in prison, given what prison really entails and during their young adult years they can never get back, even if they knew in exchange that they'd get ~$12 million for it all (if they even made it) in the end.
Where would the planet be without the love of mothers and the willingness of others to hold hands together in the search for justice. Bless them all.❤
This is what we get when we hire ignorant people as detectives who treat “getting a confession” as a game. They don’t care about finding out what truly happened, they just want to close the case. It makes me sick.
The fact that police just look at innocent people as a means to an end is insane! How do you just live your life knowing you put someone behind bars for no reason?
*NEVER* talk with the police even if you are innocent. *ALWAYS* ask for a lawyer and keep your mouth shut. Do *NOT* answer any questions without a lawyer!!
Amen
Chris Tapp FINALLY exonerated in 2019 after the actual killer Dripps was found through familial DNA. Dripps lived across the street from victim and confessed saying he acted alone.
For those who are saying ''i could never confess to something I didn't do" well good for you. People are different. Some people can be easily influenced and manipulated. They eventually believe the lies they are being fed and the reality is completely washed away.
Chris was psychologically tortured. He was young, he had no chance against these interrogators who are trained to get extremely cunning serial killers, sociopaths, psychopaths etc. to confess to what they are planning to never reveal .They use the polygraph test to play with his mind. He spent hours in the interrogation room, tired and exhausted, all he wanted was to go home and all this to come to an end. He gave them what they wanted to hear and it's so obvious the 'cop' in the video is trying to get him to repeat after him that he cut her.
Yes scary unethical tactics he was naive gave in shocking
Where were Chris’ parents when all this was happening??? I’m so mad at half baked detectives who don’t know how to solve murders yet they want to come off as smart!! 😡😡😡
If this was happened before launching DNA, I am sure that Chris was already done by death penalty... this is really scary.
Ohhh the mamma hugging him after the cuffs came off got me! 😭
Carol is one strong woman, Chris continue to get your life back together, and Michael I admire your bravery for putting up with the police and their bad actions. I hope you all continue to be friends and be one happy pseudo-family
This entire case is a mess, geez.
Makes me so sad they’d fight so hard to convict an innocent person instead of continuing to find the true criminal. I can’t believe his lawyer didn’t or wasn’t able to put a stop to this. Recently seen another where a 15 year old wrongfully sent to prison for killing his mother. Wasn’t let out til he was 38. Sadly he didn’t get anything for losing most of his childhood and all of his young adult life.
We need to start having radical pushback, where these people are entitled to suing the state / government / police for it.
Wow. This was the most intense 48 hours I watched so far. How beautiful that the mother, convicted and under suspicion 3 came together
What a great lady her mom is... What a hero.
This case blew my mind. I learned so much more about DNA & how it can go so *wrong*. What an emotional roller coaster. And I’m just the one watching this show. So very happy they caught the right man. I hope Carol can find a little peace now. As well as all the people fighting for justice. Now I hope Chris wins his case. They literally put him through psychological torture.
The murderer of Angie , Brian Dripps , was actually of the Usry family, he just carried his step-father's last name. The two are 7th cousins with a common ancestor born in 1741, William T. Ussery. According to internet research 🙄 The image made based on the DNA looked kinda like Miachel Usery to me, just saying 😉
Fascinating... 🤓
This case broke my heart more than the rest of them. So many ppl were harmed. The kid who made the documentary specials is one special person. He's a man of great character and integrity. I hope the jailed young man gets a huge settlement!!
What lawyer did he have that allowed him to take 7 polygraph tests? One that wasn’t working in his best interest. So much corruption in Idaho Falls it’s disgusting.
The more I watch this the sicker I get. Police need to be held accountable if they badger a confession and get somebody locked up. NEVER talk to the police about a crime. Cops will sacrifice your life for a promotion or a few “addaboys” from the media.
Rip Angie🙏❤🌹🌻🌹❤May Jesus give peace to her Mother ❤
Though this case is nasty, the 3 victims - Carole, Chris and Mike are such beautiful people and seeing them bonding somehow feels very healing to me. God bless them and those who helped set Chris free.
Sadly Chris died Nov 2023
This story is insane. I have heard repeatedly how police coerce people to admit to a crime they didn’t commit. Those officers need to be incarcerated!
I think I’m addicted to this channel now!
🤷🏾♂️it’s just the suspense that’s gets me 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
Its an addiction to watch case after case and when you think you seen them all, here is stii more..
Those detectives deserve life in prison
Or at least the 20 years Chris had to endure. Such a tragedy.
Totally agree. Never understand why the US persist in those lie detectors, we don't have them here, for a reason. So many corrupt officials about.
Carol’s mother is absolutely amazing.
Chris Tapp should get tens of millions for how he was coerced and railroaded in Idaho. Very sad case for everyone involved
Chris died Nov 2023 by “hitting his head on a coffee table”
“I love Carol. We’re in it together.” I’m crying 😭😭 that was beautiful! God bless you young man🙏
Her mother's voice broke my heart you can feel the agony in her soul RIP to a young beautiful soul
Crazy story! I feel so bad for Chris. I love her mom's courage and love for others! There are some special people in this tragic situation..
Much respect for the mother for believing in Chris's innocence. Sad that police can coerce a confession from an innocent man. The only thing worse than not having the killer is putting an innocent man in prison.
Her poor mum 💔 I hope Chris gets an enormous amount of compensation and those responsible for the wrongful conviction are punished - not that it will make up for the best years of his life having been stolen from him.
Why? He fessed up.

Christopher Conley Tapp passed away... (on November 5 2023)
The real killer is in prison. (Brian Leigh Dripps Sr. was sentenced to life in prison )
Those cops should face charges.
For sure!
This is probably the most fantastically fascinating episode I've seen. They will manufacture testimony if they think they can get away with it. I think it's great how the wrongful suspect makes something positive out of the situation.
Carol, Chris, and Michael are all incredible people. Somehow the light of their bond shines through this incredible darkness and tragedy.
So sorry for the mother. Can't imagine what horror she has gone through.
NOW can they stop believing only guilty men make confessions? Oh, and Usry Jr. looks like Jack Black. Just sayin'. Carol...you are an amazing woman. Not too many women would have accepted that the person they thought brutally murdered their only daughter...may just be innocent. That could NOT have been easy. Be blessed, lovely lady.
He does look and sound like Jack Black. Weird.
@@britth5333 Surprised they didn't go after Jack Black as well.
I am glad that Angie's mom eventually found out who killed her daughter, that Chris got out of prison and Michael was not arrested for something he did not do.
Thank you 48 Hours, for exposing that often times the bad guys are the cops
Never talk to the police!!!!
This breaks my heart. Police/detectives need to be held to a higher standard. I hope there we repercussions for them. So much wasted time when they could have been looking for the real killer.
Coercion is wrong
Thank you 48hours for putting this full episode on
Convicting the wrong person leaves a criminal on the streets.
OMG This Case is Crazy 🤪!! Innocent people being accused and Spending more than 20 years in Prison for Something you didn't do!! God Bless Angie's Mother!! Rest in Peace Angie!!! 😇
As soon as they said "28 hours of interrogation over 23 days" I knew it had to be a coerced confession. It was easier for police to spend 23 days subjecting an innocent man to psychological torture instead of checking out the person --- Dripps --- WHO LIVED ACROSS THE STREET FROM HER. Embarrassing police work. Anyone involved in this should be ashamed. I am glad the REAL killer is finally in prison for what he did, and for all the people who didn't give up in finding the REAL truth.
These police officers and detectives, even the former police chief... obviously not just trying to convince the viewers but also himself that he believes what he's saying. Absolutely disgusting, I feel physically ill watching these interrogation and polygraph tapes. I wonder how these "officers" would feel if their family members were treated like this!!! I wonder if they will still think it's okay?!
You can learn more about forced confessions in the relevant episode of Last Week Tonight With John Oliver. It is mind-boggling.
Now when I saw the first 10 seconds of his interrogation, my first thought was "this is a forced confession"
I'm a certified applied behavior analysis therapist, just for the record.
By whom are you certified? Is there an educational track to become a "behavior analyst"? Because, just FYI, "behavior analysis" is on the same level as "forensic dentition". There are people who can analyze behavior. They're called psychologists. You're not that, though. Or you would have included that information.
The two innocent men who were accused are so lovely i want to hug them. And so brave for having been falsely accused.
Never take a polygraph, there’s a reason why they’re not admissible in court, because they’re inconclusive and not accurate, guilty people can pass them and innocent people can fall them.
Law enforcement will just NOT admit when they mess up. The Pam Hupp case is a great example of that. Also the Central Park group of kids. All confessed due to pressure, and even after it was proven that none of them were involved, the cops still say it was them!! Even Donald Trump took out a huge one-page ad saying they should get the death penalty. Imagine what that does to someone?
Don't talk to the police. Don't take polygraph exams. Exercise your right to remain silent, and your right to an attorney.
Carol is such a strong woman and mother! Prayers for answers for her 🙏🏼❤️
I love it when she asks the cop if he knew the polygraph was used as a coercive tool. Then he has that tell tale look. The one where they look past the inquisitor and takes that moment that you know , he is thinking he is going to lie but exactly what is the lie going to be. It is a telling action that people take, that moment you absolutely know they are constructing the lie and configuring the words to match it.
And for all that time, the killer ran loose and possibly killing many other girls.
Thank God for this case revealing how corrupt their interrogations were and I wonder how many more men are sitting in prison because of them.
Sick
What a way to start off my morning, starbucks and a new ep 🤞🏾
Right!! 😊
Right!! 😊
Right? Getting ready for work while watching lol
Carol is an incredible woman. She didn't hang on to Chris being guilty even she saw the evidence, she wanted the truth, not the easy answer and an Innocent life ruined. What an amazing woman.
This pulled in the heartstrings!! The mother in so much pain wanting and needing justice for her daughter. Yet she was able see through all the problems with case and go to bat for the wrong that was done. She is quite amazing. She wanted the right person to pay for the crime not the wrong people!!! I’m glad she finally got justice in 2019! Peace be with you all.
This seems like a fascinating topic to discuss. We aren’t always aware there’s actually notorious criminals walking among us. Preferably they like to be in sheep’s clothing most of the time.
Evil
Is everywhere, unfortunately. So many times we hear the words,” they seemed like the perfect family or he was the nicest guy”.
It’s come down to trust no one 😔
Don’t trust humans they will let you down eventually
Just like a lot of people walking around with undiagnosed mental issues. Nothing new
@@LifeisANovel I cannot understand why someone would make a false confession and not fight their innocence, but at only 20 and the police out to get you I guess I can understand why he gave a false confession. Over time, sitting in prison all those years had to eat him up. He's lucky so many people, outside of the police, had his best interest and knew he didn't do it. In the long run, he will win a substantial lawsuit for false imprisonment, but at a cost of 20 years of your life. I know I would be yelling and causing a temper tantrum if I was falsely accused. The cops would have to beat me to make a false confession. In some countries they do beat people to admit guilt.
@@stephendacey8761 some break down crying over being berated for hours. I had a family friend who baby father murdered someone. An ice cream truck driver I believed. Detectives picked her up. Grilled her for hours. Even though she said she don't know. She said they talked about taking her kids away. Alot of things. Bring up her past about her going to a psychiatric place. True story. Maybe you gotta know ppl who actually tell you. But I don't see how you can't see how it could happen to be honest
I'm so grateful to hear Angie got Justice!!! RIP Angie ❤❤
There could've been an adoption somewhere up the family tree. There could also have been a little "indiscretion" somewhere that somebody doesn't remember (or talk about). These are things that should be taken into consideration as well.
The murderer of Angie , Brian Dripps , was actually of the Usry family, he just carried his step-father's last name. The two are 7th cousins with a common ancestor born in 1741, William T. Ussery.
So sad to see so much injustice and heartache and time wasted. Angie's life was short, but the love she received from her mom, is unsurpassed. For what her mother had to endure, yet still full of love and caring for others is hard to believe. God Bless her and Angie is among angels.
Cris tapp can sue the police department and state probably so he could get millions from his decades in prison
No he can't because he signed that plea deal. That's exactly why they did it.
@@dariennedykes678no no he still can
He did, he got close to 12 million dollars.
