    For someone to hear another person screaming for help, in distress, and do NOTHING is obscene and a cowards way. Lives can be saved if people only react. We were camping once and heard a couple arguing. Next we heard her screaming for help. We called 911 and the police were there within 3 minutes. He was stabbing and choking her. She lived and I hope, got away from that psychopath that called himself her husband.

    I had a neighbor one time around 1 am screaming. At the time l didn’t know it was her. I called the police to report because l didn’t see anyone but l could hear the screams. Eventually, the Police came. I stepped outside and by that time l could see it was her. She was having some sort of reaction to some medicine. She did get some help. The next day her Dad was so appreciative because it could had gone wrong for her if l hadn’t called for help. We are all here to help one another.

    Gretchen was my teacher in NJ before she moved to FL. Middle school. I was devastated to see her photo and story on UA-cam last yr. I remember when I was in middle school, she had just gotten her first teaching job. She also was a student teacher for me as well before hand. She was a beautiful, fun but respected teacher among her students. I wish this man, I won't even say his name, never gets out. It says he will be in his 80s, but her daughter will never see her mom. Prayers to her family. I can't say enough about Mrs. Crane (her Maiden name, bc it is NOT Anthony).

      It depends on where you live. You could be labeled a snitch if you live in a bad neighborhood. You call the police and the police will come to YOUR door in sight of the criminals for details. The court papers then name you as a witness with your private information revealed. The police will offer you no protection and the criminals know this. A lot of criminals believe that dead people tell no tales. We need better policing period!

      Maybe you're new to True Crime, but that's sadly very common. In many cases, people don't call police when they hear or even see things. In many cases, if a woman escapes, or survives, & reaches the road to look for help, most cars will keep driving, though one person may call 911 as they continue driving. And its so common, that we tell women that if they are attacked, they shouldn't scream rape, they should scream fire, because that is a danger for everyone & makes people more likely to take action.

She said she didn't want to bother to call because it's usually nothing. That girl was found on the side of the road inside a coffee table that had a hinged lid.

      I mean there are some places in the u.s.a. where calling the police can be an offense. So for example there's some cities where if police are called to the same address or by the same phone number a certain number of times within a year it's like a misdemeanor or something. And sometimes you don't have control or knowledge of how many times people who lived at the address that you live at called

    I helped my wife get out of an abusive relationship with her first husband. She stayed until her kids were grown but the hell she lived with was atrocious. She feared for her life daily. We have a beautiful loving relationship. She's a wonderful woman and didn't deserve the hell she lived in.
    She was seriously injured a few times.
    I'm so sorry this woman couldn't escape this monster she was with.
    I'm so sorry to hear so many women are treated this way.
    I hope every woman in a violent relationship can find a way out.

It's a famous crime and his channel is about surviving... Telling detectives his father killed her and his father is in jail still ga lighting him and he reads the letters in videos. He finally met someone who told him he got his dog all those years ago and he started bawling. It's another great video..

The people being interviewed already know the outcome of the case in most cases...they already know someone is dead, the perpetrator is imprisoned etc...yet the tenses they use and the sentence formations seem to indicate something ongoing like the outcome is yet to be determined. It keeps the mystery alive for the viewers. Very elaborate work writing these scripts or directing them to respond in a particular manner and even getting some of the victim's family members to be conscious of what they are saying and then editing these later. A lot of work indeed! Well done!

I know my mom didn’t help me pick out my prom dress - I had to pay for it myself. My niece didn’t even get a homecoming or prom because of “covid.” I also never got married, nor had kids. My mom and I have fought like cats and dogs forever, as did my brother and mother. Neither of us have had contact with her for years because of the stress and drama that comes when she was in our lives.
      Just remember that when people get murdered, friends and family will say nothing but positive things about the victim. It’s very improper to any speak ill of them. We really don’t know what the future will be for the daughter, nor what her relationship with the mother was like or would have been like when the daughter got older.

    After first looking into the research regarding the psychology of the Bystander Effect- *the inhibiting influence of the presence of others on a person's willingness to help someone in need* -I took a personal vow to ALWAYS be the one to act should I ever come into a situation where one thinks to themselves "should someone do something?"
    I'm fairly young, but already I've had occasion to take that vow to task several times. I've called to report swerving, dangerous driving. A car upside down in some woods below the highway, a large tree branch hanging on a powerline, a sketchy looking dude running through backyards, a freshly fallen tree on the roadway, a dog off the side of the road alone and looking frightened. And finally, disturbing screams from a camp site. There's more than that, but what I can say is that 9/10 these situations are by and large relatively low stakes. But once you prime yourself to be the one that acts, should you ever find yourself in a high stakes situation you won't be shy to act.

    Am i the only one sitting here thinking its highly suspicious that he asks "for who?" ... does that mean he's killed before?? i know he's trying to come across as innocent but asking "for who" does the complete opposite of that and raises concerns for me.

      Nothing significant has happened in our society to protect women against DV, my dad used to beat my mother to a pulp, I got in the middle because not one neighbor would help. The cops would tell him to go cool off for the night while she has a broken nose, busted lips and horrible lacerations. That was the 60’s

    The fact the neighbor heard Gretchen's screams "No!," "Stop it!," "It hurts," and did absolutely nothing will haunt her for the rest of her life.
    As for a reason why David murdered Gretchen, it is pretty obvious. She recognized he was crazy, put him out and filed for divorce. Simply, "REJECTION!" Dude had gotten by on his height and good looks for so long that no woman left him, but rather he did the leaving. If he could not have her nobody could.
    I have seen his type before. He is a psychopath and stalker. It would not surprise me, he watched Gretchen for a while, stalking her every move, then wooing and eventually marrying her. A quick background check on this manic would have made all the difference in the world.
    If, I am at all wrong, I stand corrected.

      I know that part surprised me. And judging by the amount of comments against the neighbor, most people are very upset. Rightfully so. Unfortunately, the neighbor did not call. She must've had tremendous guilt afterwards, by her later actions of approaching the police and the media, and relating what she heard.
      In a way, I feel bad for the neighbor. For she has to live with what she didn't do.

    I remember when I was living in an apartment complex, I was awaken out of my sleep around 3am…. I looked out of my window and saw a man beating a woman… I called 911, gave them the name of the complex and the area where I saw the fight. I asked that I remain anonymous because I don’t want anyone potentially coming to my apartment; however I still wanted to make sure the girl received help!!! LEO arrived about 5 minutes and arrested the guy….
