Imagine having someone you've never met nor wronged in any way being so jealous of your life and family that they're willing to murder your child and steal your money. It's really creepy that people like this are roaming free.
I realise this is a way old comment, but... I'm a cousin of Graeme Thorne's. A family member of mine linked me this video. Agreed, the fact that there are people like this who are roaming free. Freda died in 2012, a few months before her 1st cousin, my grandmother. The family are still reasonably "well off" as a result of the lottery win, but they never really recovered from Graeme's death. We don't believe it was murder per se - we think he intended to return him after payment of the ransom. It's the family's belief that Graeme probably realised rather fast that he wasn't actually going to school, there was a struggle, and in the process Graeme died. My mother drummed stranger danger into me, needless to say... as did my grandparents.
@@nikcodemus what happened to bradleys wife and kids ? did they go on to england without him ? the wife was in on it 100% - why else would she agree to pack everything up including the kids and leave life behind in australia
Well, firstly, Graeme was accidently killed. It wasn't murder. Secondly, money is so much desired in our society, that any quick way to get it is sort. No one can be blamed for wanting a lot of it. Admittedly, this was a truly bizarre way to go about it, but the ending was definitely NOT sought, intended nor expected

The peeled apple wrapped in plastic broke my heart. That shows the love of a mother perfectly. A little thing done with care just the way he liked. So sad. My heart breaks for his parents. This is a parent’s worst nightmare.
Yeah what a loser, crying about someone's accent, success, marriage... he's just a sore loser. Plenty Hungarians found success after being through hell, like George Soros. This guy is just a crybaby and a loser.
I get being jealous of a lottery winner. But actually robbing someone and kidnapping a person especially a child is beyond the pale. And then going so far as to killing that child is horrific. I don't understand how you could kill a child 😭
Not this vid but this case made my at the time 9.5 YO brother leave our religion because “God wouldn’t create child murders” and I’ve been considering joining him for 3 years now
@@euclideanspace2573 George Soros isn't a great example to use mate as that bloke actually worked with the Germans at the time by giving up fellow Jewish people to ensure his safety.
there are actually several states in the US where they still will publish who wins a lottery! It's pretty awful when you think about it, because those people are targeted by scammers and victims of other crimes a LOT
Even crazier: I live in a state where /they/ don't publish the winners..... But if anyone asks for the name of the winter they are required to disclose it.
It's almost a curse to win money like in the lottery. Many sad turns of events for the winners, not limited to strangers. Most often the people who help bring the fortune to misfortune are those closest to the winners.
Same, until she said he'd been seen buying a 30 gal drum. I think he killed him when he realized police were involved. Also, I'm not convinced of Magda's innocence.
It's impressive how thorough the police were investigating this case and gathering evidence, especially for when it was and the limited resources they had. Some police departments could take notes from these cops 👌👌
Keep in mind this family had money. Even the shittiest police departments can pull their heads out of their ass for a family with money. I doubt the whole country would have been searching if it was a family less fortunate
If he was murdered within 24 hours of being kidnapped, what was the point in asking for ransom? You receive the money then you hand them off a body? What? Angers me.
I just want to know why he killed the boy. Like they were willing to give them every cent they had just to get their son back yet he didn’t end up taking the money. It makes me so mad too.
@@Luu904 it still doesn’t make full sense because didn’t Bella say the kidnapper never told them where to leave the money?? Or did I just miss that part? Like how was he expecting to get the money with no drop location?
this was so sad, i’d never heard of this case before so i was really hoping they were going to find him alive 😔 those poor parents. really great informative video, bella!! would love to hear more old australian cases.
Idk if it was ever the same in the US with the whole putting their STRAIGHT UP FUCKING ADDRESS IN THE ACTUAL NEWSPAPER??? (Like why did nobody think that might be a bad idea BEFORE a child was murdered?) but I do know that people in the US have worn literal masks to hide their identity from the media. Like halloween masks. Its hilarious.
Such a sad , senseless murder. I’m quite impressed with the detective work in this case, especially for the year this took place. I can’t imagine my son being kidnapped, not knowing if he’s ok. I feel deeply for the family. Great work Bella , I had not heard this case before. I love seeing your precious fur babies.
I think the police and detective work in this case was absolutely outstanding! Especially when they didn't have any surveillance footage or DNA technologies at the time - just good old fashioned detective work. Absolutely tragic that it ended with little Graham losing his life 😢💔
I don't think he expected the police to get involved as quickly and efficiently as they did. His plans fell apart, so he killed the poor kid. Because he was a monster.
@@maddiekain7728 he was also an idiot as well as being a monster then. You don’t Rob rich people especially people who came into money in such a public way and not expect it to be a high profile police case
This kidnapping was meticulously planned out and extreme. Quit his job; bought a car he couldn’t afford, sold his house … it’s all a bit much. This guy really believed it was all going to work perfectly as planned. Like he really believed in his plan.
Probably a bit more ethical to start with and a lot more devoted to their jobs to catch the bad guy. …….not like now they rely on CCT, phone pings,etc instead of adding good old fashioned police work to that…..
Okay, what the heck is a 'strong' European accent anyway? French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish, Russian, Scottish, Danish... Their accents couldn't be any more different to each other 😂😂
no kidding lol, my fiancé is polish and when I try to compare his and someone else that is Russian or German. It’s pretty hard to determine unless you hear them speak their own language.
Hungarian accent is very difficult to recognize to non-Hungarian speakers I think. I just watched a show on netflix with Hungarian characters but they had Russian accents for some reason 😂😂 Plus we are a relatively irrelevant country
For foreigners it’s hard to distinguish Europeans accent/features/complexion apart from other Europeans. Same goes for asians. I can distinguish my language from other Asian languages/features/complexion. she isn’t European how would she know the difference between Hungary, Italy, etc -.-
It always amazes me when criminals use so much time and energy to get over on others. If they spent half as much energy on working on themselves, they might be legitimately successful.
I wonder how tall she is, I'm surprised that she hasn't been scouted by a model agency or hasn't done any modeling before. Seriously one of the most gorgeous faces I've seen. Maybe she has and isn't interested.

I really hope Bella sees this Edit - I looked it up and it's unsurprisingly just an urban legend but it would still be interesting to hear the myth of it :)
I wonder if Graeme did die in the boot of the car by asphyxiation, and then Stephen freaked out and started violently hitting Graeme to try to wake him up. It doesn’t make sense that Stephen would have intentionally killed Graeme so early on because that obviously ruins his plan to get money from Graeme’s parents.

You should do a case on Kyron Richard Horman who has been missing from Skyline Elementary School in Portland, Oregon, since June 4, 2010. He was last seen that morning after attending a science fair at the school. I just recently moved here and have been meeting people and a lot of people are skeptical about the whole situation!
Yes this needs more attention. I’ve been following Kyron’s disappearance since it happened. He’s the same age as my son. My heart goes out to Kyron’s mama. 😢
Aw I was hoping for a happy outcome :( I feel bad for not only Graeme's family but also Steven Bradleys wife because he sold the house sooo was she just homeless with 3 kids or? Such a tradegy :(

My mother always talks about this case with high emotion. It impacted so many people, it was so heartbreaking. Poor, poor little boy. It’s absolutely horrible. Thank you Bella for doing this so very well. And Ash should be a movie star!🇦🇺❤️
In the middle of an arduous moving process, yet greeting her audience with a sunny smile that makes her followers smile back. And with no less than a story about a first in Australian history. This Norwegian's mood instantly shot through the roof. Thanks, Bella! 😁👍🌹
Love you just talking to your animals. I love how you don't take it out of the video. I also love these mysteries. I'd rather watch these than a horror movie. It's crazy how all of these are real and people can be this way.
Fantastic storytelling as always, Bella! There is one thing that I can’t get off my mind, so I have to ask - what mascara are you using? I have to know!! 😁 Thank you again for your hard work!
I'm confused about the high speed chase after the petrol station stop. I thought a woman around 50, man around 40, & a 20 something man were in that car, but Steven acted alone? Was that just a coincidence?
Hi hi just binging your videos and can I just say thank you for the brief ads at the beginning. There are other true crime channels have 1/3 of ads in the middle of a 20 min video.

That poor little boy. He didn't have to kill him :( Bella, please also try to cover the Aarushi Talwar double homicide that happened in Noida, India in 2008. There are so many narratives out there. I would love to hear your thoughts on this case. Thank you
Thank you for being so real & true to yourself. Love how you tell stories, cook & well, just live. Hats off to you Bella and good luck in your new home 🍀

I watched the documentary on Grégory's murder (on Netflix) only to discover that it happened in my town my Mamie was from (before she moved to Nancy, Lorraine). such a sad story
Bella, please investigate the unsolved September 8, 1981 South Dakota case of a triple homicide of a Mom and her 2 sons, ages 2 and 4. The husband survived the stabbings saying he came in and fought off the intruder. They were living in a shed as their home had burned down 2 months before. He was acquitted of the murders.
I'm so happy you posted a video! I was genuinely getting worried about you. I kept bugging my boyfriend, "why isn't Bella posting I hope she's okay!" 🥰 Happy for you to move houses, such an exciting time in life Btw! Your cat cleaning itself in the video was so funny and cute lol! Pets are a blast

My mother always talks about this case with high emotion. It impacted so many people, it was so heartbreaking. Poor, poor little boy. It’s absolutely horrible. Thank you Bella for doing this so very well. And Ash should be a movie star!🇦🇺❤️
I was thinking “mmmhh it has been a minute since she uploaded 🤔” but then I remembered that she puts so much research into her videos 😊
In the middle of an arduous moving process, yet greeting her audience with a sunny smile that makes her followers smile back. And with no less than a story about a first in Australian history. This Norwegian's mood instantly shot through the roof. Thanks, Bella! 😁👍🌹
This is one of the first stories where I actually hear that the cops did their jobs, it's sad that he didn't survive !
There is a song about this case.
My mum remembers when this happened, my poppy and others from their town went to go help with the search .
I just finished my online class, your timing is always perfect💜💜
The world is so scary, I’m never letting my kids leave the house 😭😭 love your videos! I listen to them on my way to school!
Love you just talking to your animals. I love how you don't take it out of the video. I also love these mysteries. I'd rather watch these than a horror movie. It's crazy how all of these are real and people can be this way.
Fantastic storytelling as always, Bella! There is one thing that I can’t get off my mind, so I have to ask - what mascara are you using? I have to know!! 😁 Thank you again for your hard work!
I'm confused about the high speed chase after the petrol station stop. I thought a woman around 50, man around 40, & a 20 something man were in that car, but Steven acted alone? Was that just a coincidence?
wait your right , i forgot about that part
I was wondering the same thing!
Must have been….. people in the car were different ages that was probably someone else who was a crim ! …
literally the most underrated youtuber!!! love yaa 🥰
Hi hi just binging your videos and can I just say thank you for the brief ads at the beginning. There are other true crime channels have 1/3 of ads in the middle of a 20 min video. Like 5 different sponsors and the most fake reading a script. Your ads actually seem genuine and I really appreciate how short and sweet you make them. Seriously the only ads I’ll watch
Omg she’s baaack!! We know you’re busy Bella, we appreciate you so much ❤️
That poor little boy. He didn't have to kill him :( Bella, please also try to cover the Aarushi Talwar double homicide that happened in Noida, India in 2008. There are so many narratives out there. I would love to hear your thoughts on this case. Thank you
Yes please
Yes !
she covered it!
I love how she randomly starts talking to her animals 💙
The way the even found the guys old vacuum cleaner, wow. Now this is good police work
Can we get this type of detective work on every case? Wow. Way to go Australia!!
Thank you for being so real & true to yourself. Love how you tell stories, cook & well, just live. Hats off to you Bella and good luck in your new home 🍀
Awwww I was really hoping he wasn’t murdered!! The dad broke my heart when he was talking. Why!!! Why did you have to murder him!!!!!
Ash carelessly cleaning herself in the background is simply everything 😹😹😹
The energy you’re carrying in this video! You’re glowing!
The cat looked at your vitamin packet like “hey.... is there something in there for me, no ...ok”! 🤣🤣
Is it just me that thought that they’d find him alive because of the title 💔
the fact that so many people helped and the police immediately helped as much as they could is so amazing and this should be the case with every missing child
I’m very impressed with the police work on this case!
I only discovered this channel recently but I am HOOKED! you present things very in depth, interestingly and respectfuly, and the cases I've seen so far were mostly ones I hadn't heard about, which is always a treat!
I was so distracted by Ash's cuteness....so adorable.
I have been binge watching your whole channel recently and this is in perfect timing 🤩
LOVE YOU UA-cam VIDEOS I LITERALLY WATCH ALL UR MURDER MYSTERY ALL DAY EVERYDAY😂❤️❤️
Me too
Man this one hurt 🥺 I really thought The baby was going to make it, there was no reason to kill him he would’ve gotten his money, jealousy is something fuckin crazy man 💔 rip to that sweet baby boy 🤍
lmao the kitty listened! I think they were embarrassed 😭
i love hearing less well-known Australian cases like this - this is the second one you've done that hits super close to home (in term to location) yet i'd never heard about prior
Australia: gets colonised and filled with convicts
Also Australia: doesn't make laws
You: knows fuck all about Australia and looks like an idiot.
Tianthee bro chill, it’s a joke
@@tianthee also him: is kinda right tho HAHAHA
The research on this case is so deep, i loved how hard u worked on this one.
i get so excited for these videos I've refreshed your channel for about a week, bella ur the best
Jealousy really is a crime. You never know who really is your enemy. I am so mad that he was killed.
Man I wanted Graham to be found alive and returned to his parents so bad
Me too 😕😕😕
Thank you for posting for us although you are so busy with your move!!!! We appreciate you so much
Holy crap it's so weird to see cases that happened LITERALLY where you live today
absolutely love the content! i'm french and i feel like you would have the time of your life investigating the french Grégory Villemin case, which is by far the biggest cold case in France and the most notorious one.
I watched the documentary on Grégory's murder (on Netflix) only to discover that it happened in my town my Mamie was from (before she moved to Nancy, Lorraine). such a sad story
Bella, please investigate the unsolved September 8, 1981 South Dakota case of a triple homicide of a Mom and her 2 sons, ages 2 and 4. The husband survived the stabbings saying he came in and fought off the intruder. They were living in a shed as their home had burned down 2 months before. He was acquitted of the murders.
Congrats on the new house!! Thats so exciting! I hope its a great new start.
I remember the last time you moved house! I hope everything goes smoothly and is set up Bella Beautifully!!! 💜💜💜
I'm so happy you posted a video! I was genuinely getting worried about you. I kept bugging my boyfriend, "why isn't Bella posting I hope she's okay!" 🥰 Happy for you to move houses, such an exciting time in life
Btw! Your cat cleaning itself in the video was so funny and cute lol! Pets are a blast
Awwwe congratulations on the new place that must be so exciting🏘
I love learning about like the first time something crazy happened but sometimes it's sad like this one. RIP.
