Ive heard Christians story before. I cant wrap my head around why anyone would think his death is a suicide. It blows my mind! Thanks so much for your great coverage!
Christians case has always stuck out to me every time I’ve come across it on different podcasts. He didn’t kill himself he was set up and murdered! Dylan and the girlfriend had everything to do with it!! Why would they let their gravy train stop paying for everything especially when she had a drug problem?! I really hope the parents reach out to the general attorney and push until they open the case again. Those two are guilty as sin and should pay for what they did to him! It also makes me wonder if the girlfriend was a CI for the police department and that’s why it was brushed under the rug?
What can I say sometimes police incompetence leads to police cover ups. There is no way the police can say there is not enough evidence christians case, that doesn't point to someone murdering him.
Definitely Disgraceful and probably a mix of corruption, incompetence and laziness. Whiteley and Dylan sound like parasites ... Just use everyone around em until there's nothing left.

I completely agree. I live near Jackson, MS and I’ve heard about Christian. I do NOT BELIEVE he killed himself!! And I’ve not heard good things about the Meridian, MS police department. She probably paid them off!!
I'll share a story. I'm a Crone now, so over 50 yrs ago, my neighbor was found dead. 1 week before the epic, 2 month, planned road trip, he was taking with a co-worker. Both of these single gentlemen, had saved their vacation days, for 2 years, to travel around America. They worked @ Lockheed, in Burbank, Ca, as did my Dad....so I know saving vacations was a thing. My neighbor was found on the floor of his bedroom, shot with his own handgun. The bedroom window, facing my parent's properties, had the screen removed: leaning against the outside of the home. That was not typical. The bottom half of the window was open. The gun had been kept in a bedside table drawer that was found on the floor, items from within that drawer were scattered. The home was a small, shotgun cabin style, dwelling. Not a large property, but it had an excellent view up the Big Tujunga Canyon, looking towards the Angeles National Forest. Perfect for a single man. The police determined it was a suicide. They had asked his elderly Mom if anything was missing. Head bobbing & tilted sideways, she declared she didn't think so....while admitting she didn't go inside, because the cabin was painted red, and red was the color of the Devil. Well, she's super believable! The police said my neighbor had killed himself because he was in poor health: he had arthritis. They refused to listen to either myself (who had been paid to do chores on the property) or the co-worker (who was a frequent visitor: they would bar-b-cue & take in that view) that the disarray in the small home was a clear sign that something bad had happened. Who saves all of their vacation time, for two years, to off themselves, on the hardwood floor, 1 week before the road trip of a lifetime?!? Lazy, incompetent, didn't give a rat's arse, police is who! This wasn't some backwater, poorly trained, newbies either....suit wearing detectives of the Los Angeles Police Dept. I lost my faith in our system, when they wouldn't even take fingerprints because " it was obvious what had happened" I've known a good cop or two, in the ensuing half a century. But it's pretty much the luck of the draw, what you're going to get: good cop or bad cop? Good luck.
I am so sorry that happened to your neighbor. As a chronically ill person, I've had a very similar experience with doctors and nurses. I've known people who have had their teeth ruined by sub par dentists. Bad pilots have crashed planes. There are teachers who do way more harm than good, psychologists, lawyers... I wish everyone would take the time to care about the job they choose to do. RIP to your neighbor. God will judge us all. ❤
Whitley was definitely doing the dog on Christian but he was young so I get it. Doesn't matter what anyone tells you about a toxic partner many can disregard it at that age. Sad to see what became of that young man.
The first case I remember seeing on TV and this case was mishandled badly. This case was of pure murder and greed from the girlfriend and friend who was mooching off Christian. The second case I believe the woman had mental issues that went unresolved for a period of time.
The 2nd case had fled an abusive ex who was also a cop. Many people believe that is why her case was considered S. The evidence really doesn't add up. For the conclusion to be possible, she would've needed more than mental illness. Super powers would've been required to get the needle she allegedly drugged herself with so far from where she allegedly hog tied herself. It may be worth looking into on 1 of the other channels who presented all the evidence in her case for a full video.
@@mzcytinI’m pretty sure Cindy’s husband was actually a respected doctor. Either way, you’re 100% right about it being next to impossible for her to get herself into the position she was found! (Actually, all 3 cases were not S in my opinion) All of these cases are completely suspish!
They weren't his true friends. They were evil monsters. And that blonde pos junkie, deserves prison, if drugs didn't dig her grave all the way to hell.
And I tell you what if it was my child and that happened to my son I would not rest until those two were charged with murder I would keep going I would sue somebody something needs to be done about that situation. That Police Department should not be allowed to get away with that mess
The hair on the back of my neck stood on end when I heard that part about Whitley wanting Christian to make her the beneficiary of a life insurance policy just in case of an accident at work yeah that's not creepy at all😏 Imo I truly believe that the cops were to damn lazy to do their job. Just because it's the easiest conclusion to reach doesn't mean that it's an accurate one. Imo I feel that Whitley and His unemployed friend had the opportunity to kill him . Her because she was a greedy girl who saw potential gold mines and Daniel because I think Whitley was sleeping with him and manipulated him into helping get rid of Christian.

It seriously makes me sick when I hear about cases where you know damn well it wasn't a suicide but yet that's what they decide to say to close the case.
The police really needs to investigate the Christian case. Every case of the sudden unexpected death of a healthy person should be considered a possible murder. How can they take the word of known drug users?
I fully belive Christian was murdered by that girl or the girl got the other guy to help her. It doesnt add up. Hoping the family gets real answers soon.
And he absolutely did not buy a BMW for Whitney. The BMW was his car and he was extremely angry when he found out that she was driving it constantly while he was on the boat. She also had other men in his car.
I’ve never heard of Cindy’s case and it’s interesting. In the beginning I was thinking mental illness, maybe schizophrenia. But the way they found her body I don’t believe she could set that up herself. She was definitely murdered.
Kendall Rae did an amazing tribute video on this case a a couple years back 👌👏🏿👍💎. She met with and interviewed Christian's Family and a couple of his supposed "friends". It was just super intense, emotional and heartbreaking. Watching Christian's Mom going thru their Family photo albums filled with pics of Christian (and including even some of Christian and his "friends") just absolutely pulled away at my heartstrings. As a Mother of 2 boys myself, I know just how incredibly sweet, strong, sacred & special that Mother/Son bond truly & especially is!!! Listening to her speak so highly of her Son, it's like I could literally almost absorb & feel just her tremendous amount of real, true, pure, sheer, overwhelming & unrelenting pain coming through my phone & touching my own heart. Oh how I could just feel for that poor Mother on so many levels, I mean that ache in her voice is something I can still hear in my head 2+years after watching that video...I mean it really touched me someplace deep, it really, really got to me. But so now, 2+years after watching the tribute video that Kendall Rae made for Christian's Family and in honor of Christian's everlasting legacy and memory, I think I am finally now ready to watch another video made by someone else. And I honestly cannot think of anyone better than this always sooo sweet Southern Girl right here, right now. 👌👏🏿👍So I'ma get to it. Thankyou for covering this unbelievably tragic case, Ms. Southern Girl 🙏!!!
These type of cases piss me off to no end - just like the ones that are stabbed to death and the police rule it as a suicide. We seriously need a police accountability group to investigate shoddy police work!!!
The case of Cindy James has always intrigued me. It is by far one of the creepiest cases I have ever heard of. I have heard many different versions of her story with very little details. The sketch of the man seen outside her home is something that has never been shown. With regard to the voice recording, I have heard it several times, and it does sound like a woman attempting to disguise her voice. I remember when this case was featured on Unsolved Mysteries, and there were theories that she may have been suffering from multiple personality disorder, and that one of her personalities completely took over and killed her. Which is why the RCMP ruled it as a suicide. Another theory is that her ex husband may have killed her, but I don’t think there was enough evidence to prove that claim. I really enjoyed watching the video. You put a lot of time and effort into making these, and it is amazing the amount of research that you do that adds a little something extra that nobody else notices. Sometimes all it takes is one vital clue that holds the key to solving these mysteries. @southerngirl, keep doing your thing. We love you!
Declaring case 1 a suicide according to the police department was at the very least gross incompetence and at at the worst outright corruption with the intent to prevent the course of justice.
Good morning Southern girl! Hope you have a good rest of your week, thanks for the New Uplaod 😊 God Bless us all 🙏 Be safe everyone! Happy Thanksgiving 😊
@@SouthernGirlCrimeStories I just discovered your channel a few days ago. I’d like to suggest a very cautionary tale that you might want to make a video about. Dr. Robert Stevens and his 2nd wife Stephanie Stevens. He was a heart surgeon in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Stephanie was a nurse, 1/2 his age. She told friends she was out to marry a Dr. and she did. If you google his name and Stephanie’s, you’ll find lots of information. Within l0 years, all 3 of them had died.
There’s has to be more accountability for those Meridian investigators. They didn’t botch Christian’s murder, they simply did not investigate. I wonder how many other crimes they didn’t investigate.
I believe that all of these cases are murder. Christian's girlfriend and his friend Dylan killed him. If Cindy's case is a suicide how can she tie her hands? Jessica's drug use shouldn't even come into play. Her boyfriend and his friend killed her. Police failed in all of these cases. I feel so bad for the families. Law enforcement turned a blind eye on all three of these. It doesn't take a rocket scientist after hearing the cases that the people were all murdered. Happy Thanksgiving. As always thank you for sharing🍗🦃🙏🕊✝️
I also remember hearing about Jessica’s case and was mortified that they weren’t able to look through her phone due to privacy. I am not sure if that is any different today. Truly scary and very personal.
Christians story pains me and it is one of the cases I truly hope is looked into more. I've always believed Whitley and that guy killed Christian. They took advantage of him and his brother. They're just low lives turned murderers.
Whitley and that other dude MOST DEFINITELY KILLED CRISTIAN I think someone is connected to someone high up and that's why they are saying suicide 🙄 but KARMA'S AN ITCH!! and they will get whatever karma is coming
Did Christian really find out Dillon & Whitley were messing around when he got home then ambushed ? Were they friends previously & that’s why he wanted them to move in. Sounds like they set him up. Thought of that when you said their stories to police matched originally the day of.
Christian’s case is a horrible injustice. Total incompetence, laziness, or corruption of the police department. None of those killers deserves a moment of peace . Wow. Whitley and Dylan need to be publicly shamed… if this were to happen to any of the incompetent authorities families, they’d be investigating. So sad.
Some police are really pathetic. In a small town the state major crime unit should be in charge of sudden deaths like this Christian case. You don’t have to even be a professional to see it’s not a suicide
Hey Girl! Good video as always. That second case is speaking to me. People can and do hurt themselves for attention. I know because I did it. When I think back to those days ~~ I was a teenager at the time ~~ I don't know where my mind was. I just believed I needed something I didn't think I had. I was able to calm myself down and stop self-harming, but some people can't, and I'm really wondering about Cindy. This is a tough case. Thank you for covering it and also the other two cases!
IMO: Christian was Murdered Cindy could be either but I’d have to see the bindings she was found in to have a clue. Always thought Jessica was murdered.
The police really needs to investigate the Christian case. Every case of the sudden unexpected death of a healthy person should be considered a possible murder. How can they take the word of known drug users?
I have listened to many podcasts and other UA-camrs tell Christians story. My heart breaks for Ray and the family. I don't believe for one minute that he committed suicide. Whitley and Dylan had ties to the Meridian PD. This was a set up and cover up by a very corrupt law enforcement agency! I hope The Androachios see justice served one day and all those crooked individuals involved with the botched investigation get what is coming to them, also! #justice4christian
I hear about that happening quite a bit. While I know that there are some parents who are abusive, if a teenager's own family can't deal with them, that should tell people something. I have enough to deal with and I won't take on anyone else's problems. It never ends well.
Christian - murder - he had too much going for him and had his head on straight - bad police work/investigating Cindy - IDK - sounds like someone knew or noticed when the police would be there - weird that her perpetrator's sketch looks like a Planet of the Apes character. Her body was found the day I graduated high school. June 8, 1989. Seems like if someone was threatening her that bad and she was found beaten a few times, they would have just finished the job the first few times. That's the part that seems weird to me. Also seems odd that for someone who was so afraid of whoever....she told her parents that she admits she "knew more than she was saying and she would go after the perpetrator herself"??? Why would go after someone that you are afraid of unless the perpetrator IS YOURSELF. Thoughts ???? Jessica - definitely murder - seems like someone strangled her with her purse strap and then staged the hanging.
Christians case is so obviously homicide it's unreal. Every person that "investigated" this and said it was suicide should be fired. I guarantee Whitley told Dylan if you do it I'll give you some of the life insurance money she THOUGHT she was getting. This is one of the biggest most ridiculous cases of injustice I've ever seen.
The cops can't do their jobs, so apparently these families need to dish out a little vigilante justice... I know I wouldn't settle on their theories...

The first case seems like a murder. The other two, I think are both suicides. Excellent video, SG ! Thank you for always being so thorough with these cases.
I would have took matters into my own hands if I was Christian family ain’t no way they would have got away with that, and I would hire someone to look into that crooked police station
it was murder he couldn't have killed himself if it was done on the right side the gun should have been on the right side not the left side that's impossible somebody planted it there which means the person that planned it there is the one that killed him
Absolutely not a suicide , young good family, zero pointing toward Christian wanting to end his life. So much to live for. I'm sorry Christian may you get justice.
Story #2 is a suicide by a woman who craved attention and sympathy to the point that she was willing to kill herself for it, it's a sad case but a case of suicide.
Christian, case was botcked, terribly inadequate job done, if you can even call it a job. This family was failed. 😡 Rest till Paradise Beautiful Christian 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
sgc did a good quick video on Christians case,but if u want a super u depth video,Kendall Rae went down to his parents house and stayed quth them while making her video series on this case.
Yessss made it just In time. My 65 y/o mom is suffering with Pneumonia & Both strains of the current flu running wild in Louisiana. So basically I’ve been up since 6 am lol.. thanks for the upload. I enjoy learning from ur vids‼️
Geez BOTH!! Your mom is 6 yrs older than me & pneumonia kicked my but about 13 yrs ago and the flu 6 yrs ago. Hope she feels better soon. Happy early Thanksgiving! ✌🏻
The first case is truly puzzling there's a lot of things going on and for police to just basically overlook things. It makes you think that someone in the police department is covering up for someone is what it's sounding like to me. Did they ever check out to see if maybe this girl was possibly messing around with a police officer. It's truly a case that's a cover up.
The Chief of police is likely the "dirty cop". He's the one that showed up to the scene, and shut down the investigation. He's the one who determined it a suicide w/o even seeing the crime scene! I honestly think that Whitley knew of goings on involving the chief of police, that he didn't want known. Then she had Christians blood on her hands, and didn't want to be held accoutable.
👀 I can't understand how Jessica's case wasn't ruled a murder! It's seems nearly impossible to create such an outrageous "suicide" scene alone in the dark. I'm curious about benzo (Xanax, etc) levels in her toxicology report. Between meth & Xanax, they'd likely be the cause of respiratory distress. Yet if she wasn't breathing, how do the police reason the unreasonable?
My grandfather was murdered in his home , middle of sunny Saturday afternoon, by people we all knew , police didn't even take a fingerprint, they stole his contract cingular flip phone, months later people told me his name was shown on caller ID , I called it pretending it was a wrong number got a name, reported it to state police because they had been going in the cell store paying the bill monthly, there's a theft ring involving police in Kentucky among other things , so this story with Christian it seems similar with corruption, my grandfathers death is decade old cold case that's very not cold and the PTSD investigating it myself has me left as the oldest living family member because the rest just gave up hope all dying off , it's not just Kentucky police in my opinion it's nationally here and there and may God help us all , oh btw that sheriff was eventually indicted by the attorney general of the United States for embezzlement of federal funds over 100k dollars
I really feel for Christians loved ones. Despite the dirty police chief James Lee sabotaging the investigation, and losing evidence there is still enough to show that he (Christian) didn't kill himself. Yet no one has been charged in his death.
That is crazy! It's almost smack you in the face obvious Christian was murdered! Yet in some other instances that I've read or watched the police will charge someone when is just as smack you in the face either not the person arrested or clearly an accident. I live in Canada and I believe it's the same here. My brother supposedly killed himself in 1991. His wife was openly having a very suspicious close relationship with one of his friends. There's way too much to get into on a comment thread, but same thing of like HELLO!!!! Anyway, love your videos!!
This is the first time I’ve ever heard that Jessica worked for rock103 and news channel 5. I’m from Memphis and have researched her case before. Thank you for thorough coverage. She definitely did not hang herself ... over dose, murder, accident? Maybe. Def not suicide.
If you’re a parent in charge of your child’s body after death, why in the heck wouldn’t you request an autopsy, and then worse, cremate your child right away? An autopsy is way more valuable than having people look at pictures and even if the cops and the state are pushing you to suicide theory, you’ll have independent evidence for the court!
In the Christian murder case… I always tell myself, anybody that continues to miraculously get away with doing evil deeds on Earth should be very worried. Earth is the Dark Ones domain. Everything else is God’s.
Something is really fishy about Christian's case. No freaking way that was a suicide?!!!! Cindy's case is baffling but I wouldn't rule out murder, hands and legs tied? That's hard to do on your own I would imagine
The lack of investigations in the first and third cases is absolutely infuriating. Christian very clearly did not kill himself, which would have been immediately evident had the Meridien police done even the most basic of investigations. No way would Whitley have slept through a gunshot, no way would Christian just want Dylan to have all his money. Did the bloody shirt stuffed behind the toilet belong to Christian? Whose knife was it and whose blood was on it? Did Christian have any knife wounds? Did Dylan or Whitley? Who moved Christian's vehicle? As far as no real evidence against Dylan or Whitley, there were plenty of circumstantial evidence. Dylan made the call to Christian to get him to come home; both he and Whitley were in the house; Dylan was trying to clean out Christian's bank account; both had gunshot residue on their hands; Whitley believed she was the beneficiary of Christian's life insurance policy; and both were being kicked out of the apartment. Seven years is a very long time for someone to be stalked and harassed - and so many elements of the Cindy James case don't fully add up. Based solely on what I've heard, I lean towards suicide. No excuse why there was zero investigation in Jessica's case - and certainly not likely to change with no autopsy and her body being cremated. I don't believe she committed suicide. Women typically don't put themselves on display like that. Did a medical examiner ever offer a time of death? I remember hearing doubts about Jessica having been at that mailbox all night and into the next morning due to traffic passing by and yet no one seeing her. Likely she was killed elsewhere and placed there. Why would her boyfriend change the passcode on her phone if this was a straight up suicide? Why didn't Jessica leave with the friend she contacted from inside the bathroom, begging for help? Definitely many questions but I think murder. Thank you for the video and focusing on these cases. Happy Thanksgiving!
Christians case infuriates me. Dillon and the girlfriend obviously ambushed and killed him. As for Cindy, I believe she was schizophrenic and was doing this to herself. It doesn't make sense orherwise
I know one thing’s for certain-a 17 year old child has NO business living her life as an adult. As a mother to two adult kids I would have to step in and send that little girl back to her family and let them deal with her. Homegirl was living high on the hog on Christian’s dime. Damn shame.

Could be small town snitches are always taken care of it happened in Louisiana at the Jeff Davis 6. Or 12
The whole christian case is so wrong on every level. How can anyone think that's a suicide? Just doesn't seem to add up
There are some amazing investigations into this case. She is guilty as hell.
Guys need to stop being simps.
Welcome to small town southern justice. It's disgusting that they would cover this up. The district attorney needs her ass beat.

Because it's corruption and or involvement, I refer you to my comment and cold case , we deserve federal help with these mafia cops
Which cop is Dylan or Whitley related to?
Someone tossed out CI caught up on a drug related offense. That seemed plausible to me.
I think Dillon and Whitley are guilty of murdering him.

That young man was murdered. Plain and simple! RIP Christian justice will eventually win! 🌹🙏🙏

I’ve never heard of Cindy’s case and it’s interesting. In the beginning I was thinking mental illness, maybe schizophrenia. But the way they found her body I don’t believe she could set that up herself. She was definitely murdered.
Kendall Rae did an amazing tribute video on this case a a couple years back 👌👏🏿👍💎. She met with and interviewed Christian's Family and a couple of his supposed "friends". It was just super intense, emotional and heartbreaking. Watching Christian's Mom going thru their Family photo albums filled with pics of Christian (and including even some of Christian and his "friends") just absolutely pulled away at my heartstrings. As a Mother of 2 boys myself, I know just how incredibly sweet, strong, sacred & special that Mother/Son bond truly & especially is!!! Listening to her speak so highly of her Son, it's like I could literally almost absorb & feel just her tremendous amount of real, true, pure, sheer, overwhelming & unrelenting pain coming through my phone & touching my own heart. Oh how I could just feel for that poor Mother on so many levels, I mean that ache in her voice is something I can still hear in my head 2+years after watching that video...I mean it really touched me someplace deep, it really, really got to me.
But so now, 2+years after watching the tribute video that Kendall Rae made for Christian's Family and in honor of Christian's everlasting legacy and memory, I think I am finally now ready to watch another video made by someone else. And I honestly cannot think of anyone better than this always sooo sweet Southern Girl right here, right now. 👌👏🏿👍So I'ma get to it. Thankyou for covering this unbelievably tragic case, Ms. Southern Girl 🙏!!!
Local rumor also had it that Whitley was a "lot lizard" at a local truck stop.
These type of cases piss me off to no end - just like the ones that are stabbed to death and the police rule it as a suicide. We seriously need a police accountability group to investigate shoddy police work!!!
It's just sloppy work done by the cops as usual.
The case of Cindy James has always intrigued me. It is by far one of the creepiest cases I have ever heard of. I have heard many different versions of her story with very little details. The sketch of the man seen outside her home is something that has never been shown. With regard to the voice recording, I have heard it several times, and it does sound like a woman attempting to disguise her voice. I remember when this case was featured on Unsolved Mysteries, and there were theories that she may have been suffering from multiple personality disorder, and that one of her personalities completely took over and killed her. Which is why the RCMP ruled it as a suicide. Another theory is that her ex husband may have killed her, but I don’t think there was enough evidence to prove that claim.
I really enjoyed watching the video. You put a lot of time and effort into making these, and it is amazing the amount of research that you do that adds a little something extra that nobody else notices. Sometimes all it takes is one vital clue that holds the key to solving these mysteries. @southerngirl, keep doing your thing. We love you!
Declaring case 1 a suicide according to the police department was at the very least gross incompetence and at at the worst outright corruption with the intent to prevent the course of justice.
I’d be furious if my son’s death was so shabbily investigated by lazy cops…unbelievable. Cannot imagine the anger and hurt they are feeling 😔
POLICE ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO QUICK TO DISMISS, CALL MURDERS SUICIDE, ETC.
Good morning Southern girl!
Hope you have a good rest of your week, thanks for the New Uplaod 😊 God Bless us all 🙏 Be safe everyone!
Happy Thanksgiving 😊
Good morning Gina 🌞
@@SouthernGirlCrimeStories I just discovered your channel a few days ago. I’d like to suggest a very cautionary tale that you might want to make a video about. Dr. Robert Stevens and his 2nd wife Stephanie Stevens. He was a heart surgeon in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Stephanie was a nurse, 1/2 his age. She told friends she was out to marry a Dr. and she did. If you google his name and Stephanie’s, you’ll find lots of information. Within l0 years, all 3 of them had died.
I think its more likely Christians death was by someone else's hand.
There’s has to be more accountability for those Meridian investigators. They didn’t botch Christian’s murder, they simply did not investigate. I wonder how many other crimes they didn’t investigate.
I believe that all of these cases are murder. Christian's girlfriend and his friend Dylan killed him. If Cindy's case is a suicide how can she tie her hands? Jessica's drug use shouldn't even come into play. Her boyfriend and his friend killed her. Police failed in all of these cases. I feel so bad for the families. Law enforcement turned a blind eye on all three of these. It doesn't take a rocket scientist after hearing the cases that the people were all murdered. Happy Thanksgiving. As always thank you for sharing🍗🦃🙏🕊✝️
Thank you for talking about Cindy. Such a tough case.
I also remember hearing about Jessica’s case and was mortified that they weren’t able to look through her phone due to privacy. I am not sure if that is any different today. Truly scary and very personal.
Christians story pains me and it is one of the cases I truly hope is looked into more. I've always believed Whitley and that guy killed Christian. They took advantage of him and his brother. They're just low lives turned murderers.
Whitley and that other dude MOST DEFINITELY KILLED CRISTIAN I think someone is connected to someone high up and that's why they are saying suicide 🙄 but KARMA'S AN ITCH!! and they will get whatever karma is coming
Thanks so much for covering the Cindy James case! It's so often overlooked. :)
Wow Whitley is evil. He was murdered
Christian DID NOT kill his self! Point blank .
Oh Christian, I can relate to having an abusive and manipulative woman in your life. Screwed me up for years so sad for the family.
Did Christian really find out Dillon & Whitley were messing around when he got home then ambushed ? Were they friends previously & that’s why he wanted them to move in. Sounds like they set him up. Thought of that when you said their stories to police matched originally the day of.
Christian’s case is a horrible injustice. Total incompetence, laziness, or corruption of the police department. None of those killers deserves a moment of peace . Wow. Whitley and Dylan need to be publicly shamed… if this were to happen to any of the incompetent authorities families, they’d be investigating. So sad.
Some police are really pathetic. In a small town the state major crime unit should be in charge of sudden deaths like this Christian case. You don’t have to even be a professional to see it’s not a suicide
Christian's case is very fishy. Bad cops! As the widow of a career cop, I'm always angry about sloppy investigations followed by massive ass-covering.
Hey Girl! Good video as always. That second case is speaking to me. People can and do hurt themselves for attention. I know because I did it. When I think back to those days ~~ I was a teenager at the time ~~ I don't know where my mind was. I just believed I needed something I didn't think I had. I was able to calm myself down and stop self-harming, but some people can't, and I'm really wondering about Cindy. This is a tough case. Thank you for covering it and also the other two cases!
IMO:
Christian was Murdered
Cindy could be either but I’d have to see the bindings she was found in to have a clue.
Always thought Jessica was murdered.
The police really needs to investigate the Christian case. Every case of the sudden unexpected death of a healthy person should be considered a possible murder. How can they take the word of known drug users?
I have listened to many podcasts and other UA-camrs tell Christians story. My heart breaks for Ray and the family. I don't believe for one minute that he committed suicide. Whitley and Dylan had ties to the Meridian PD. This was a set up and cover up by a very corrupt law enforcement agency! I hope The Androachios see justice served one day and all those crooked individuals involved with the botched investigation get what is coming to them, also! #justice4christian
Poor Christian. OF course, the lady and guy killed christian!!Christian!!! Lousy police investigation!!!!!!!
Oh no #1 was a murder all the way.
17 years old and living with boyfriends family?!
Not appropriate.
I hear about that happening quite a bit. While I know that there are some parents who are abusive, if a teenager's own family can't deal with them, that should tell people something. I have enough to deal with and I won't take on anyone else's problems. It never ends well.
Yes, nothing good ever comes from taking in other folks children. Not my job!
These beautiful people were murdered!

Christian - murder - he had too much going for him and had his head on straight - bad police work/investigating
Cindy - IDK - sounds like someone knew or noticed when the police would be there - weird that her perpetrator's sketch looks like a Planet of the Apes character. Her body was found the day I graduated high school. June 8, 1989. Seems like if someone was threatening her that bad and she was found beaten a few times, they would have just finished the job the first few times. That's the part that seems weird to me. Also seems odd that for someone who was so afraid of whoever....she told her parents that she admits she "knew more than she was saying and she would go after the perpetrator herself"??? Why would go after someone that you are afraid of unless the perpetrator IS YOURSELF. Thoughts ????
Jessica - definitely murder - seems like someone strangled her with her purse strap and then staged the hanging.
Shame on police dept for doing such a lousy job for Christian…this is not a suicide, pieces dot fit in…
Christians case is so obviously homicide it's unreal. Every person that "investigated" this and said it was suicide should be fired.
I guarantee Whitley told Dylan if you do it I'll give you some of the life insurance money she THOUGHT she was getting. This is one of the biggest most ridiculous cases of injustice I've ever seen.
It seems to me that even if Christian's death WAS a suicide, it wasn't investigated enough to tell either way.
Cindys case was originally featured on Unsolved Mysteries. Was always one of my favorite episodes.
The cops can't do their jobs, so apparently these families need to dish out a little vigilante justice... I know I wouldn't settle on their theories...
Christian & Jessica were both murdered, the other I'm not sure but I really don't know how she was able to tie her hands behind her back.
Christian’s story upsets my soul every time.
Omg wtf Christian was absolutely murdered. Anyone can figure that out!
He should’ve listened to his parents when they told him to leave that manipulating crackhead alone. They got away with murder.

I live in Central Mississippi; why are Xanex involved in all these cases??? Come on Mississippi, we can do better than this...
The first case seems like a murder. The other two, I think are both suicides. Excellent video, SG ! Thank you for always being so thorough with these cases.
Non of them committed suicide - especially demonstrated in Christian’s case.
I would have took matters into my own hands if I was Christian family ain’t no way they would have got away with that, and I would hire someone to look into that crooked police station
Christian death was a Homicide and they have a case why don’t people listen I’m so sorry for the family
I THINK THAT CINDY WAS SCARED OUT HER MIND.....PERHAPS FROM AN UNSEEN THREAT?
it was murder he couldn't have killed himself if it was done on the right side the gun should have been on the right side not the left side that's impossible somebody planted it there which means the person that planned it there is the one that killed him
You’re Subs Are Just A Climbin Girl!!! ❤ Love Your Work
Absolutely not a suicide , young good family, zero pointing toward Christian wanting to end his life. So much to live for. I'm sorry Christian may you get justice.
I’m not to sure about that last one. Boyfriend looks pretty nasty.
Story #2 is a suicide by a woman who craved attention and sympathy to the point that she was willing to kill herself for it, it's a sad case but a case of suicide.
Cindy James case was not a suicide. Everything you just said is wrong.
Christian, case was botcked, terribly inadequate job done, if you can even call it a job. This family was failed. 😡 Rest till Paradise Beautiful Christian 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Whitley and dillon would not be living another day if that was my son.
Wow Whitley is evil. He was murdered
Jessica's case was murder.
sgc did a good quick video on Christians case,but if u want a super u depth video,Kendall Rae went down to his parents house and stayed quth them while making her video series on this case.
There’s also a really long podcast called Culpable that has lots of interviews with family and such.
Yessss made it just In time. My 65 y/o mom is suffering with Pneumonia & Both strains of the current flu running wild in Louisiana. So basically I’ve been up since 6 am lol.. thanks for the upload. I enjoy learning from ur vids‼️
Geez BOTH!! Your mom is 6 yrs older than me & pneumonia kicked my but about 13 yrs ago and the flu 6 yrs ago. Hope she feels better soon. Happy early Thanksgiving! ✌🏻
Thank you so much queen I hate that. Happy Holidays to you and yours ❤️💋
Yes the doctor said it’s VERY rare to contract both strains of the flu ‼️ and pneumonia
@@kejones7324 What a lucky Momma she is to have such a thoughtful, helpful, concerned, caring & loving Daughter 🙏 May she heal quickly.
Christian was definitely murdered.
I think it was a fail investigation these police and detective they hate to do their job I hope he gets justice
The first case is truly puzzling there's a lot of things going on and for police to just basically overlook things. It makes you think that someone in the police department is covering up for someone is what it's sounding like to me. Did they ever check out to see if maybe this girl was possibly messing around with a police officer. It's truly a case that's a cover up.
The Chief of police is likely the "dirty cop". He's the one that showed up to the scene, and shut down the investigation. He's the one who determined it a suicide w/o even seeing the crime scene!
I honestly think that Whitley knew of goings on involving the chief of police, that he didn't want known. Then she had Christians blood on her hands, and didn't want to be held accoutable.
👀 I can't understand how Jessica's case wasn't ruled a murder! It's seems nearly impossible to create such an outrageous "suicide" scene alone in the dark. I'm curious about benzo (Xanax, etc) levels in her toxicology report. Between meth & Xanax, they'd likely be the cause of respiratory distress. Yet if she wasn't breathing, how do the police reason the unreasonable?
Jessica was definitely murdered!
Once again an awesome job from a great channel. How are you mate. ❤
Never heard of ANYONE threatening suicide with shoelaces 🙄🙄🙄
My grandfather was murdered in his home , middle of sunny Saturday afternoon, by people we all knew , police didn't even take a fingerprint, they stole his contract cingular flip phone, months later people told me his name was shown on caller ID , I called it pretending it was a wrong number got a name, reported it to state police because they had been going in the cell store paying the bill monthly, there's a theft ring involving police in Kentucky among other things , so this story with Christian it seems similar with corruption, my grandfathers death is decade old cold case that's very not cold and the PTSD investigating it myself has me left as the oldest living family member because the rest just gave up hope all dying off , it's not just Kentucky police in my opinion it's nationally here and there and may God help us all , oh btw that sheriff was eventually indicted by the attorney general of the United States for embezzlement of federal funds over 100k dollars
I really feel for Christians loved ones. Despite the dirty police chief James Lee sabotaging the investigation, and losing evidence there is still enough to show that he (Christian) didn't kill himself. Yet no one has been charged in his death.
good morning Ladies of the SGCS family
Good Morning 🌄
Good morning
Good morning y’all
That is crazy! It's almost smack you in the face obvious Christian was murdered! Yet in some other instances that I've read or watched the police will charge someone when is just as smack you in the face either not the person arrested or clearly an accident. I live in Canada and I believe it's the same here. My brother supposedly killed himself in 1991. His wife was openly having a very suspicious close relationship with one of his friends. There's way too much to get into on a comment thread, but same thing of like HELLO!!!! Anyway, love your videos!!
This is the first time I’ve ever heard that Jessica worked for rock103 and news channel 5. I’m from Memphis and have researched her case before.
Thank you for thorough coverage.
She definitely did not hang herself ... over dose, murder, accident? Maybe. Def not suicide.
If you’re a parent in charge of your child’s body after death, why in the heck wouldn’t you request an autopsy, and then worse, cremate your child right away? An autopsy is way more valuable than having people look at pictures and even if the cops and the state are pushing you to suicide theory, you’ll have independent evidence for the court!
It’s been over 10 yrs since Christians murder. Bet those vile “friends “ are living life without a care.
In the Christian murder case… I always tell myself, anybody that continues to miraculously get away with doing evil deeds on Earth should be very worried. Earth is the Dark Ones domain. Everything else is God’s.
Something is really fishy about Christian's case. No freaking way that was a suicide?!!!! Cindy's case is baffling but I wouldn't rule out murder, hands and legs tied? That's hard to do on your own I would imagine
The lack of investigations in the first and third cases is absolutely infuriating. Christian very clearly did not kill himself, which would have been immediately evident had the Meridien police done even the most basic of investigations. No way would Whitley have slept through a gunshot, no way would Christian just want Dylan to have all his money. Did the bloody shirt stuffed behind the toilet belong to Christian? Whose knife was it and whose blood was on it? Did Christian have any knife wounds? Did Dylan or Whitley? Who moved Christian's vehicle? As far as no real evidence against Dylan or Whitley, there were plenty of circumstantial evidence. Dylan made the call to Christian to get him to come home; both he and Whitley were in the house; Dylan was trying to clean out Christian's bank account; both had gunshot residue on their hands; Whitley believed she was the beneficiary of Christian's life insurance policy; and both were being kicked out of the apartment.
Seven years is a very long time for someone to be stalked and harassed - and so many elements of the Cindy James case don't fully add up. Based solely on what I've heard, I lean towards suicide.
No excuse why there was zero investigation in Jessica's case - and certainly not likely to change with no autopsy and her body being cremated. I don't believe she committed suicide. Women typically don't put themselves on display like that. Did a medical examiner ever offer a time of death? I remember hearing doubts about Jessica having been at that mailbox all night and into the next morning due to traffic passing by and yet no one seeing her. Likely she was killed elsewhere and placed there. Why would her boyfriend change the passcode on her phone if this was a straight up suicide? Why didn't Jessica leave with the friend she contacted from inside the bathroom, begging for help? Definitely many questions but I think murder.
Thank you for the video and focusing on these cases. Happy Thanksgiving!
Christians case infuriates me. Dillon and the girlfriend obviously ambushed and killed him.
As for Cindy, I believe she was schizophrenic and was doing this to herself. It doesn't make sense orherwise
So sad, Christian could've dated any virtuous girl out there, like a girl from church, but instead he doesn't.
Christian’s generosity was his downfall people took advantage of him 😢
I know one thing’s for certain-a 17 year old child has NO business living her life as an adult. As a mother to two adult kids I would have to step in and send that little girl back to her family and let them deal with her. Homegirl was living high on the hog on Christian’s dime. Damn shame.
