      You're absolutely correct. It's my opinion he had some serious mental issues. Another big issue, why mess around with someone married. If she'll cheat on her husband she'll probably cheat on him. I'd bet she was gonna have him kill her husband eventually for the insurance money and freedom. She had him manipulated and in her control. He was like a child to her and in his behavior.

    Will giving Michelle's ring to Anna as her engagement ring is so twisted. To me, that indicates Will had no intentions of ending things with Michelle and got the reaction he was hoping for from her when he proposed to Anna with it.

    • @radchik
      @radchik Рік тому

      I do agree with you. But I would like to add something about Will's mental capacity. The way Mr. Ballen was describing Will's actions/beliefs and you're getting a sense of Will's personality. I realized that this guy is a total gullible, clueless nutjob. I think he honestly didn't see the social ramifications of giving Anna another woman's ring as an engagement. I mean, this dude totally lived inside his head. He believed in FANTASY. This mofo thought not only could he build a time machine, but that time travel was even remotely possible! My older brother has a friend who had similar traits to Will. He was just a very naive, gullible guy when it came to women. No backbone. No kind of character. It's like he was a little boy trapped in a grown man's body. He's one of those "40 year-old virgins" who is unable to socialize with women like normal people, so he links up with women on the Internet that live far away from him. He establishes these superficial, unauthentic relationships with these far away people bc he's unable to foster a real, tangible, physical one at home. My brother's friend met some chick online one time and within a week, was planning a trip across country to be with her. Didn't know her from Eve! Who is to say that woman had a plan of robbing him? Killing him? I know in this instance, Will committed the murder, but I'm speaking more to the mental unstableness these people possess. It's actually quite scary. You just don't know who you're really dealing with. My heart goes out to Anna and her family. No one deserves what she got. And her demise came from a man-child whose grip on reality in life never fully came to fruition. I mean, he changed his mind after blowing her brains out...now he can say a magic spell and undue his actions, go back in time and be with Anna. Really, dude? Who thinks like that?? Oh yeah...someone who has ABSOLUTELY NO GRIP ON REALITY.

    I'm so addicted to your stories. I do not sleep much. And you really help take my mind off the horrors of my own life. My Father was a U.S. Marine stationed at USMC Base Camp Lejeune ,North Carolina . My Father's two tours in Vietnam, taught me about death, at a very young age. He brought home a green boot string of cut off ears, big & small. He displayed them with many other horrid things in our basement. A M-16 and many different types of booby traps, like punji sticks. It was horrific. I was very scared to go down there. But I was told to get over it or else (thump call) would happen. I was a dependent daughter, of a now deceased , Retied Sgt. Major. The abuse from my father was heartbreaking. Yet he is not the nightmare, highly toxic drinking water on this base is the cause. As of two years ago, my baby brother, who played a harp like an angel, died from cancer. So now all my family has died from this toxic water exposure. My health has been really bad my whole life. With 16 years at this base. I don't know why I have not died yet? Maybe because I'm a redhead, who knows. My biggest fear is what will happen to my son. He was medically retired in 2009 from the Army. Sent back from the Iraq War with Schizophrenia and P.T.S.D. His father was also a U.S. Marine stationed at Camp Lejeune area (New River) in 1977, He died in 2014. This base has killed so many of my childhood friends too. But my God from 1953-1987 thousands of innocent infants died. Poisoned due to the baby formula. Home made by their mothers with the worst toxic drinking water you will ever find. It's a living nightmare 24/7/365/. It's heartbreaking how this happened on United States soil for so many decades. So sad but true. P.S. Your Mother did a great job, because you're awesome. Thank you Sir.

Even predators sneak up within 30 to 40 feet and then sprint to their prey. It is just not possible. Predators ambush, animals and Human, but to get right up to prey....NO. It is quiet in the forest and unnatural noise is very apparent when out in the wild.
    I am sorry to say it could not have happened like that. He did not sneak up on her within a few feet, he did not make it to her to get his shotgun within even a few dozen feet of the back of her head. He may have waited in ambush, had a full choke on the shotgun and shot her from 20 or so feet, which the spread of the shotgun wouldn't have been much and it may have seemed as if he was close to someone who knows no better, but no man snuck up and shot anyone within a couple feet in any forest.
    Sorry, but that is not the real world.
    Amazing this worthless PoS wanted that nasty bitch more than the gorgeous Anna. People like that do not deserve life.

      The woods here in Oregon are something else.i grew up on in the mountains in Montana and no you couldn't sneek up close or right behind anyone. I moved out here to Oregon in 2001 and started mushroom picking and stopping around the woods here and have literally been one step away from stepping on deer numerous time. My uncle who is 6'1" and about 230 lbs would sneek up on me and my other uncles and scare the crap out of us quite often lol.

      I don’t think Ballen gave this particular story justice. I did some research and found out more about the level of deception Will used to manipulate both Anna and Michelle. In fact, it seems Anna was just being used as a tool by Will to make Michelle jealous so that she would divorce her husband. He made up lies about military service (said he was a marine that had been stationed in Russia) sweet talked both women, but was secretly pretty unhinged. Michelle was bitchy and jealous, but I almost feel bad for her because that was of Will’s design.
      I’ll also add that Will lied about Anna to Michelle and made it seem like Anna just wouldn’t leave him alone and that he had told her multiple times it was over. This made Michelle hate her more, but it was a lie. Anna thought Michelle was crazy and imagined she had more with Will than she did.

      The delusional 72 hours after murdering her are either him trying to cover things up, trying to cope with what he did, or legitimate delusional onset of some kind of mental episode.
      That, or he has the mental fortitude and IQ of a doorstop.
      There 100% was a reason for why he killed her, it wasn't just a killing, either he was coerced, someone else did it, regrets or other thoughts and reasons that made him do it, you don't just put a shotgun on someones head and pull a trigger, even if the answer is as simple as, having the desire to kill someone.

    My best guess is that Will is covering for Michelle. She had 3 sufficient motives to kill Anna:
    #1 - Her Emerald Wedding ring (emotional/monetary value)
    #2 - Her obsession with Will
    #3 - Her affair with Will
    It's very plausible Michelle could have followed them there, as we know Will was in contact with Michelle over the phone the entire time and likely let the location slip of where the break-up would occur, thinking nothing of it. (Michelle might have known him that well too, perhaps, as she also could have known that he carried a shotgun in his car). Then all that's left is her reaching into the car, grabbing the shotgun and following up with her initial threat to Anna. Of "doing something really bad".
    Michelle is the one we know who has motive, has previously displayed aggression, has the mental disturbance (obsession, online stalking/predatory behavior, & verbal threats), plus knowingly and repeatedly wedged herself in between Will & Anna's relationship by repeatedly contacting Will.
    Purely from this telling, it honestly seems that Will as your common textbook geek tried and used everything in his knowledge to come up with a cover up story, not to actually travel back in time and "bring back Anna" but to now protect the only thing he has. Michelle. The death of Anna though, could have also very well made him go bonkers and down this nonsensical road of "time travel heroics". Feeling guilt of taking the decision to marry her & bring her here, or not having been firm against Michelle.
    Maybe it wasn't even Anna he was breaking up with in the woods, maybe it was Michelle. And Anna? She just found herself in the wrong place at the wrong time, and then chased deep into the woods and cornered with a shotgun. We don't know.
    All I know is that without looking at other evidence, and purely from the storytelling alone, her death seems very nonsensical at the hands of Will, and more logically at the hands of Michelle. But well, of course that's all just this online armchair sleuths severely biased perspective.
    Rest in peace, beautiful soul. My condolences for both Anna & her family.

      we don't know if she was a coward, in fact, I think it takes guts to move away from all you've ever known to an uncertain future, so I wouldn't throw that word at her too casually. hindsight is 20/20 and there's no way she could've known that in addition to being a stupid slob and his being selfish enough to be sleeping with a married woman and giving her that woman's ring, no less, her not knowing he was capable of murder as well is completely understandable how many cases of husbands killing their wives [or vice-versa, or kids killing their parents] have we heard of and those victims knew their killers much better and for much longer than Anna knew Will and if they didn't know what their killers were capable of and to take precautions how could Anna?

    I hadn't heard this story before, but wasn't very surprised at the ending. I already suspected Will of his affair. And when I heard he took Anna to the woods "to talk" I also expected it to end in murder. I feel so horribly for Anna. She was so beautiful, and yet Will couldn't understand just how lucky he was to have her in his life and actually love him. RIP Anna. Burn in hell, Will.

    I just wanna make this clear: love triangles almost _NEVER_ end well!! Jealously and suspicion tend to envelop people’s minds when there’s a third person romantically involved in their relationship, and it often evolves into venomous fury. I’ve seen plenty of cases where love triangles result in the death of one person-usually the most innocent party. Even so, nobody deserves to die, nor does somebody have the right to play judge, jury, & executioner

      Well they work for the person who gets the man or women after being a home wrecker I’m guessing. Isn’t that kind of how a love triangle starts. 2 people with each other then one of them finds another person and has to make a decision. Or they are a bunch of Bi-sexual’s having 3 some’s. The more I think about it, there are tons of ways to get into a love triangle. I could of been in one once when I was in a 3 some with my girlfriends, girlfriend. Then she got another girl one night so it became a 4 some. Would that be a love triangle? There was not any jealousy. At least non that I remember, plus nobody died. And it ended well. 😉
