Today, we bring you a true crime video about Eugene Guy Izzi. Guy was a fiction crime writer, who over the years got mixed up with bad groups of people while researching for his book. The circumstances surrounding his death have always been puzzling, and he even wrote about it before it happened in an unpublished manuscript. Thank's for checking us out and subscribe if you like. :)

Thanks for checking out our video! I could only find 3 pictures of Guy for this episode, so I had to reuse pictures a bit towards the end for this one. Thanks again :)
Nearly 50k lads!
He killed himself.
Kevlar is heavy. Could bring death faster in hanging. Smart to wear.
The neck often doesn’t break if the noose is positioned in a certain way. Read about hangings in centuries past. They say if the guy hooking u up didn’t like u he could make the noose so you’d strangle without anyone noticing the difference in how he positioned the rope
This channel needs more love
Such a ‘public’ way of dying is a message of some sort. Whether that was a message from him - or someone else - is obviously debatable. However, I’m more inclined to believe it was suicide.
This is one I haven’t heard about! I had to google his name, can’t wait to hear what you have to say! Love your channel!!
Wow a crime writer end up being a victim. That's just terrible. Great video!
The bruises could have happened by him struggling while he was hanging, like you all mentioned about him "lowering himself down gently."
He wouldn't have gotten bruises if he was already dead, scrapes & cuts sure, but not bruises. You all were right, you can't get bruises after death.
Great episode!
Let me specify bc I don't want to piss anyone off on here lol
The blood can settle after death as well as decomposition can cause discoloration that may look like bruising. But the type of bruises that come to mind from injuries specifically, like a black eye etc, are very unlikely to happen after the person is already dead. Hope that adds some clarity hah.
Well, his neck wasn't broken so if he did do it to himself he definitely would have struggled. Without the "instant death" of a hangmans fracture - he would have thrashed around for SEVERAL minutes before suffocating. Pretty terrifying.
Agree. Bruises can not for after death. They may darken but usuqllynqlreqdybevidenxe of bruising qlready present.
This channel is so underrated! This case is such a mystery.
I love the CYA comment
“Because hey, we are just losers doing a UA-cam channel “
Quickly becoming my new fav channel!
This is my first time watching a video on your channel. I am very picky about what true crime channels I subscribe to but I have never heard of this case so thats a good thing right off the bat. Let me see what you are all about as I now watch your video
Thanks for giving us a shot. Not everyone likes the 2 person narration style
@@ogdencastle now that i listened to it it was definitely something new to me and I'm not sure if i like it or not but I'm gonna stick around
@@kenkaniff8428 They are good at what they do champ. I've been listening to them for a while and they are very good story tellers. I've noticed them getting better at it as well since starting.
They actually compliment themselves well. Hopefully they can make this a full time gig at some point. The art of story telling is still very much alive and well thanks to these guys.
I also like that they don't use cheap tricks to encourage engagement. These guys are as genuine as I think we will find on UA-cam and I hope they don't lose that!
@@dfgiuy22 yea I'm gonna stick around and see if this method of having two narrators grows on me. i don't hate it it was just different and I'm not used to it. thats all.
This is a new story to me, and one of the more fascinating ones I've heard recently. Excellent job!
Another amazing upload. Impeccable timing also. Woooo
If only he'd been an acquaintance of famed mystery writer Jessica Fletcher.
Then we would definitely know who done it.
Hey guys, I love your soothing voices. Thanks for covering this case. Greetings from Germany ♡♡♡
It is been a while...but so glad to be back! I have a backlog of uploads to watch, but that is a good thing! Be well and stay safe everyone! 🖖🐢👣
This story is fascinating! I checked Amazon for his books, and they are either out of print or at hardcover pricing. I hope what royalties may be coming in go to his family.
I live in Chicago and Never heard this story. Wow! Thanks for uploading.
i seriously love this channel. another great video!
Love you guys! Can't wait to see what you make next 😄
I was raised w my twin sister, to a father who nearly killed my mama. He always told me terrible things about my mama. Hwever, my mama never said a bad word bout my father. That says something.
i really enjoyed this episode! thankyou for your work😊
That theory about him conditioning himself to be able to hang himself from a window is wilder than the death itself. Jumping from planes and all.. only to make sure you're not scared as you hang dying. Whoever thought of that theory needs help or a publisher cuz damn that's some fantastic story.
im related to this guy! my mom always used to tell me about him and seeing him at family events. i can’t believe i’ve never seen this video
Excellent episode again !!!
Thank you for the video! It's nicely done. I've never heard of this Case!
Thanks for the content 👍.
Enjoyed this episode heaps .thank you !😄
So many questions! It's complex, definitely!
Great video guys rly interesting story
Who had seen the manuscript where he detailed an identical death? Or who could have stolen it? Before I would believe suicide, I'd like to know who could have planned and staged the scene.
He didn’t do that to himself. If I heard you correctly, he was afraid of heights.
If there's a perfectly fine and effective gun right there in the room that's accessible, why would you choose a method that's more elaborate, more painful, and requires more effort? At the end of the day most people will go for whatever is the most effective with the least effort.
This was very well Researched.
Guy's books sound fascinating to me!
"Damn, I'm not gonna be famous for my writing. What else could I do?"
It's good to listen to something that is not too horrible. Another podcast I listen to has been getting into really heavy stuff.i cannot stomach violence or murder of children.also really sicko torture. I do like crime but I have limits to what I can listen to.
To me, all the evidence points to suicide.
Its all very weird, whether it was by his hand or someone elses!
Rest In Peace Guy. 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
50K INCOMING
Yippee 😁, morning now made
I'm sure we all trust Cook county.
He looks a bit like Andrew dice clay. Odd
Great video. Stay safe
My demons are swole cause I exercise them regularly. The skeleton in my closet is having a tough time though, needing to overcome their anorexia and come to terms with their orientation.
This reminds me of the song Keasby Nights…
This is one of the few stories where I really have no idea what happened all ideas have some merit
Crime writing AND _Quantum Leap??_
♥️
Sounds like a hit to me
I feel like nobody else was involved. No evidence. Now whether he killed himself or he was testing out the scene from the manuscript, I'm not sure.
I think he did kill himself. But not on purpose. I think he was testing the scene for the book.
Hmmmm…. It’s weird 🤔🤔
What about the threats? I wonder if someone could do a handwriting analysis -- it's _very_ hard to hide your own handwriting; you will always leave in little identifying quips. And the voicemails are always the same woman -- could he have paid someone to recite those things? I could see himself wanting to become one of his novels, to fake his murder.
These guys are real men. When I smack my wife she gets pisses. She stabbed me with a pen and then once I was sleeping and she smashed by Star Trek model over my head. I learned to chill out
I remember this happening. I lived in Calumet City from 1989 to 1996. Hegewisch was a small northern part of CC. And you said he moved from Chicago to Park Forest and then say wealthy conclave of Forest Park . Then Stephan says Forest Park too. Park Forest is a drug riddled hole in the map. Forest Park is a little better . Hegewisch is a huge pile of crap on that same unfolded map of south Chicago. All three of those towns can't sit in the Beautiful Shadow that is Chicago . I am positive it was a suicide. He had a bullet proof vest on and brass knuckles in his pocket. He killed himself bc nobody alive is famous. But he wanted to be infamous . He was so paranoid he wanted to kill himself before the mob did ...he was just a paranoid little man and he would never be great. He was forgettable and hoped he would make his name for his family by killing himself. If it looked like murder the insurance would pay , a suicide would pay Zero. He was smart , just not That smart.
Yeah, I think I noticed in editing that I switched around Park Forest with Forest Park and vice versa at some point. It would be easier if I had ever been to Chicago!

It was a hit
Dr Grande, is that u? 🤓
First let me compliment you both on your podcast, I never miss an episode and I am a very picky consumer. You do a lot of research and put time into your presentations which not enough presenters do, your parents should be proud.
Creative suicide is my guess, he clearly loved his family and friends but was struggling with many issues, career and trauma. Perhaps his soul was rent by the ugly and shallowness of the publishing world, not to mention the movie industry and he couldn't bring himself to capitulate to that market but also loved his family and needed to provide for them. He may have seen suicide as his way out but did not want to hurt his family so did it this way.
The reason I think this is because it reminds me of the story of Granger Taylor and I was a kid who lived around the community he was in and he truly was a hero to us kids at that time and that is why I believe he crafted his brilliant exit, to spare the children. They both seem to have created scenarios that were in line with their brilliance and craft.
I live in Marseilles Illinois, FYI: here the French pronunciation is incorrect. Here it’s pronounced Mahr-Sales… I know…who cares!! Just saying
I think it was an accident. I think he wanted to see if his character would've been able to save him self by climbing up the rope.
May be he called for his son because he had a bad feeling or premonition that some thing would go wrong.
And in case it did go wrong, he wanted to pass on a possibly final message to his family through his meeting with his son.
It could also have been a stalling tactic because he was nervous about doing it. That's how I think all this was.
Hillary Clinton had him knocked off .........................
He totally killed himself. It was his last chance to stir up some fame for book sales. No offense but doesn't look like it worked. But I'll keep commenting random crap because you told me a story I've never heard 😃
