If the husband HADN’T called an attorney he would probably still be in prison for this crime. Law enforcement often insist on prosecuting innocent people.
Many of them are arrogant a-holes. And they often do not apologize. They stand behind "we were doing our job" good, bad or indifferent.
Makes me sick.
It's so odd to me that the police used _this_ against Terry. Isn't it common practice to immediately call a lawyer in situations like these? Isn't it something we were all taught at young age?
And not prosecuting the guilty.
@@SatieSatieyou have to literally say “I am invoking my right to be silent” or they can use silence against you. Many court precedents to understand and, unfortunately innocent people are prosecuted more often than we’d like to believe
The husband/parents etc are ALWAYS the first to be suspected. Never assume guilt due to an emotional reaction though, that's just terrible police work and those investigators should be ashamed.
The perpetrator only served 7 years of a 14 year sentence & just 4 months later murdered Roxanne. The system is broken! This man should have never been released! Receiving a 23 year sentence is a slap in the face. He should’ve received life without the possibility of parole.
Yes, I agree, he SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN released!! 😮
Maybe 7 years of cage holding shows the primitivity of USA's imprisonment system. Prison should not be a ZOO. With a progressive policy incarcerated people could be tought compliancy with society..
In the past, it was believed that criminals could be rehabilitated. They kind of still believe it. Some people just can't be.
@@amyraszipovits810 in the past? 😂 they're still doing it now! Light sentence, and get out in half the time of the sentence! 😂 ALL PRISONERs: MURDERs, RAPERs.. NOT just non-violent criminals! This system is a BIG FKED UP! 😂
only in the joke that is the united states
If you stay calm with 911, that's suspicious. If you over react, that's suspicious. However you act on a 911 call, it's suspicious. I wish all these detectives would come together and finally agree with what is suspicious cause I watch a lot of these shows and it's always the opposite. Lol
That is really true. And they always say "everyone reacts differently to tragedy" then they go on to say, but they acted suspicious. Granted, when someone "cries" without producing tears that just screams bad/over acting
You are absolutely right. It’s bc they all have confirmation bias. They’ve preconcluded that he did it, so every mannerism displayed is interpreted as a confirmation of their belief.
HA This is why you NEVER talk to any govt agent. If you do decide to, you do it on your terms with an attorney outside of a police station.
@@johnsmith-ug5tp yeah except if you don’t call the police when you find a loved one hurt or dead, that’s even more suspicious than any other option
Yeah there's no way to win.
Just like if you're on trial there's no way to win in terms how you'll be perceived by observers and armchair detectives.
If you smile or laugh or show now emotion it means you're cold and callous and therefor must be guilty.
However, if you cry or get emotional it means you're playing it up and faking it and therefor must be guilty.
The justice system doesn’t take sexual assault seriously enough. This deviant behavior is a compulsion that these people don’t stop doing. Sexual assault should have a MUCH longer prison sentence.
If they took it seriously there would be a lot of people in power to prosecute.
@@donshuan3808 that’s for sure
@@donshuan3808 Beat me to it. I was gonna say too many people, men and women, in positions of power support and incorrectly sentence these sick crimes because they probably have those same urges.
More times than not, the legal system exists to serve itself, unfortunately.
Absolutely!
Of course they dont take it seriously.. after all, it's always the woman's fault in theneyes if the district attorneys, bc of what she wore or how she behaved right? Predators just can't help themselves... They are the real victims.... Fckn insanity.
The husband was smart to get a lawyer. Your words can be twisted against you. Always get a lawyer.
Right that's what I thought and probably was the right thing to do at that crucial moment.
Agreed. Never utter one word to the cops. Ever. And if you are guilty never admit this.
Some people react differently to distress. He was angry people weren't coming fast enough to help his wife.
guilty or innocent it's out right but especially if one is innocent.
Exactly. Never answer questions without asking for n attorney, guilty or not
Oh my goodness her poor husband. To lose your wife in this way then to be accused and suspected for 30 years. How awful. Rest in peace Rock.
The husband is always accused, whether he done it or not. If you listen to most of these UA-camr detectives, they shouldn't even get a trial, just through them in prison.
Why is the guy even eligible for parole? Our justice system is so broken.
Because you don't know what a nonfesance in office is and where to file one to hold them accountable. So because they aren't held accountable they do what they want.
Research laws on malfeasance, nonfesance, and misfeasance in office.
You can file one at the clearly of courts office at the court house.
Then teach others.
We have to stand together because the system sure isn't for us as it should be.
Yeah it's so sickening. This guy should be six foot under. God gives authority to the State to implement the death penalty. If he wants to find peace with God, that's between him and God. On our end as a society, we have the justification to end his life; on God's authority.
Who cares? He will be 90 years old.
@@oldhickory4686You the sick one.
@shanecrump7932 why don't you ask the victims family "who cares" and see how they respond.
The way this guy broke into a home, and instead of running when he got caught by a homeowner (Maureen), he attempted to sexually assault her. It boggles by mind that he got out of prison after 7 years. Clearly a danger to other women. Abusers are constantly protected and it’s disgusting.
You are absolutly right !!
The number of these stories where the murderer is a convicted rapist, child abuser, etc. Some crimes are unforgivable, SA is one of those crimes
The legal system is just so😢
You mean the liberal legal system 😮😅😊
@@richwhite63 Ikr😒
Imagine being painted as a murderer for 30 years because the cops were negligent doing their job. I feel terrible for Terry
How were they negligent?
@@jimwerther The Indiana cops who didn't even show up to where the kiIIer was being served up on a silver platter for them were certainly negligent. And it seems the local cops had a bad case of tunnel vision, tho there's nothing in the public record we can point to as far as neglicence.
@@joez.2794
Had they shown up for that woman and her Marine father, what would have changed? Nothing. Firstly, the guy would have claimed mistaken identity, and the cops would have had to let him go. Secondly, how in the world would they have tied him to the Wood case with then-useless DNA? Would never have happened.
So what else is new, cops make mistakes
I don’t understand his behavior on the 911 call, though. So odd.
Gabriella's response to helping solve future cases is so refreshing!! The students and professor also helped solve Rock's case!! Great report 48HRs!!
It's such a great idea for a class project in college. They should do that in every college.
I really like Gabriella and her attitude. These punks are not gonna get away with this crap on my watch!! You could see how angry and upset she looks when she's typing in her genealogy data.

@@Georgian1717 Then why the obvious distress reaction when he saw that photo of Roxanne? If he had no recollection of the incident, why get upset?
@@Georgian1717 you're so easily deceived and brainwashed! 😂

Huh?
Yup , esp politicians in my country
I agree.
Yes!!!!

People need to stop acting like it’s suspicious for someone in police custody to ask for a lawyer, it’s not suspicious, it’s smart
😊
Absolutely and it is indispensable.
@@PianoGesang in a criminology class they hooked the entire class (grad class, only 7 of us in there) to lie directors test and asked us questions. Some of us were told to lie during the test and it was wrong about everyone. And it was an 2 fbi officials that did the test
If you have ever called 911 you will understand why the man got upset and became aggressive. Geez, that ask a lot of questions. I can’t imagine finding someone I love in this situation and then being asked a bunch of questions when all I want is help.
Definitely but they do that for the sake of the recording and comparing details of the story later.
I have heard some frustrating ones but they need to know what's going on and they are often mustering help at the same time as asking for more info.
@@ceilconstante640well duh but you’re not thinking about those details when you literally just found your wife murdered. The POINT is he wasn’t acting rationally
@@maddieb.4282 why do you have to criticize my comment? I don't have to explain his thinking process.
No one knows how they're going to react. He was at a Bowling Alley, who knows how much he may have had to drink. He had no expectation of anything like that happening. He found his wife not only murdered but also violated. He obviously felt a combination of shock, frustration, anger and the full on sadness didn't set in yet.
I too, wouldhave become short and not so kind to having to answer so many unnecessary questions.... I would have eventually blew!!! "JUST GET THE ?/÷! HERE, YOU HAVE HEARDWHAT HAPPEND & YOU HAVE MY ADDRESS!!!" THEN probably wouldhave hung up... to cry hysterically 😢
I actually got teary at the end when Janet described her dream. Whether you believe it was a message from beyond or a subconscious manifestation of her closure, the impact of her experience was so raw and profound
I also got teary hearing Janet describe her dream. I do believe that Roxanne messaged her beyond the grave, and having a chance to spend time with her sister again, must have brought great comfort. God bless Roxanne's family and friends, and may she rest in peace. So grateful that justice has been served!
Dreams often reveal what we're feeling inside. The dream showed that she was more at peace. There's no evidence for the afterlife, but what's important is that she's got some closure now.
I did as well, I hardly ever get teary. But those dreams in which we get to talk to our loved ones who aren’t here anymore are so hard to wake up from. It feels so good in that moment to talk to them as if nothing had ever happened.

If you are guilty you need a lawyer. If you are innocent you really really need a lawyer.
You are exactly right! I learned my lesson in the military on how cops can completely change the narrative to what they need for a suspect! I have sense then taught my family too, no matter what the circumstances are if they are being interrogated for anything, ask for a lawyer immediately and dont say a word!
If you are guilty, forget about a lawyer. Go to the powwow with police by yourself, and since you are a smarty-pants, convinced that you can deceive everybody, try to convince police that you are innocent. A smart-arse like you don't need a lawyer to extricte yourself from that siatuation. Follow my advice and you'll be all right.
@@melburncraig822 this is a hack😅😅
I sincerely hope whomever called the husband "slash" lived long enough to learn he didn't do it.
It's small town MI back in the 80s, it's not one person.
I’m so glad this case has been solved.
The ending where her sister recalls a dream she has about Roxanne, gave me absolute chills. 🥺♥️
I burst into tears when she clapped her hands and swung them upwards into that arc because I instantly FELT what she meant by that...like a kind of crackling...POOF! And she's just gotten to visit with her sister and witness her being OKAY....
do you all forget she cheated on her husband?

Genetic Genealogist Gabriela Vargas is a hero.
Yes! Before this video of 48 another one had come up and lo behold Gabriela solved that decades long case as well. Superstar
Wow I wonder if she's related to the Vargas sisters who are journalists interviewers
Thank you to the detectives and Genealogist who never stopped working on case
After a night of fun drunken bowling and then coming home to a nightmare I believe I might not have a lot of patience for a a 911 operator.
As someone who recently got accused of something extremely false; ALWAYS get an attorney. That’s what they’re here for. They help you know your rights and what to sign & say, and what to not sign and say. Always always always get an attorney. Alwayyyysss. I can’t stress it enough.
Everytime I hear about law enforcement getting "suspicious" about someone getting a lawyer, I get suspicious about the cops. Everyone SHOULD get a lawyer, even if they're guilty. It will likely make the case go better regardless
Right? My eyebrow shot up tontje sky. That cop came off as smug and bitter they weren’t able to convict Terry and didn’t get their way.
Get a lawyer, especially if you're innocent. Have representation present during questioning which will prevent dirty cops from claiming the interrogation went any differently than it actually did.
And everytime I see a stupid comment and a lot of people likes , I get angry. They are cops of course they will get suspicious that is their job
@@Agirmetal but they shouldn't be suspicious specifically at the act of someone getting a lawyer. Everyone should get a lawyer, especially if they're innocent. Cops have a whole department on their side and can make an innocent person look guilty. The person themselves doesn't had an entire police department on their side, just against them. UA-cam and other spurses are full of stories of overzealous or dirty cops who railroad people.
Absolutely, I have told everybody that will f****** listen to me and taught my children, whether you're guilty, and especially if you're innocent, don't say s***, call your mom and get a f****** attorney don't speak to them. They're not on your side. I know this is a terrible way to think, but it's golden advice. Be respectful, keep your mouth shut and get an attorney. It's really easy. I don't know why people. Blab, blab, blab to these f****** cops that just want to close a case.
I love the woman with pink hair saying it is an honor not a burden to help . What a kind soul. ❤ people like her are the balance in a cruel world to have hope that there are good humans.
That genealogist was really cool. She knew she could solve the case and she was emotional and connected to the victim, and wanted Justice for her. She is very empathic. It’s not surprising she does that for a living. Amazing she got such a tiny amount and found the family of the murderer.
She is a rock star!
Amen, and then to think after all that work, this guy can get parole. What a joke.
@@oldhickory4686 Jesus he got parole? That’s horrible. He already raped other people before her. Jesus help us all.

That woman who didn't scream because of her two babies sleeping? What an amazing person. All the respect in the world. Her widower is rightfully proud of that amazing wife he had.
She died of cancer caused by the very assault by this horrible man, Patrick Gilham who has no regard to raping women and killing them as well. A MONSTER
Yes, she saved her babies from potentially seeing her being raped, especially the older one, who would surely have remembered witnessing it!! 😮😢
@@Sue-h3v You know that cancer isn't caused by assault, right? He's still a monster, but he didn't give her cancer.

I didn’t cry until the sister was telling the story at the end. That got me 🥺
Me too , that was too much 😫😫😫
48 hrs is the best true crime show there is. Thank you.
By far.
Uggh.....no.
When I got my DNA results back, and went to the website, I checked "Yes" to share my results with law enforcement just for this reason.
I am so glad that science has advanced to the point where the people who thought they got away with their crimes will now meet justice.
That’s cute that you think you gave law enforcement permission to use your DNA.
Just hope they don't falsely cause you of any crimes ....... You just signed away four liberties
You can NOT win with the COPS ....if you are innocent and you ask for a lawyer ...then they automatically assume you are guilty ....BUT ....If you are innocent and happen to be the husband or partner of the person that dies ....AND ...you dont ask for a lawyer ...then they try to frame you for the crime any way - ALWAYS get a lawyer ...never talk to the cops directly ....
FACTS just said the same as I was watching that part !!
I would tend to agree. I have been accused of stuff just for reporting a crime to police. Suspicion tends to be the default position of many cops.
The genealogist is the true hero here! Without her fortitude, training and drive the DNA match wouldn’t have existed. Not to discount the hard work, and drive on the detective to want so desperately to give this family closure. God bless Roxanne, and her family.
It was a group effort. DNA testing just keeps getting better and better.
That "opportunity lost" cost Roxanne's husband more than 30 years of horror. What a shame.
God bless Roxanne's family, the Genealogist, and the police detectives who never stop fighting for Rock!

What a great field to get into for those college young students and many young students today.....doing DNA tracking (biology) and forensic law enforcement. I guess criminals long on the lam may now be starting to hear footsteps or a pending knock on the door, that they never suspected would happen. Hopefully the DNA issue will be a deterrant to potential criminatls who might have previously thought they could get away w/ a potential crime.
Every single lawyer I know including my daughter says never talk to the police at all. Ask for a lawyer.
I’m a 911 dispatcher. It’s not suspicious. People think us asking them questions means we haven't sent anyone yet. It happens all the time. They will get irritated and angry and to them, 1 minute seems like 30 in those situations.
THAT IS WHYYYY you tell them right away that you've dispatched cops and an ambulance !!
Oh I do. Most of the time it doesn't make a difference. Because again, a minute seems like an hour for them and they still seem to think your questions are wasting time. @@KimberlyBishh
What a coward, he was so tough while doing the assaults and killing, but got shaky and started crying in front of real men with more power than him.
Not a real man. He's right, he's a monster.
He clearly thought he was never gonna get caught for this. Almost makes me mad he didn't have it weighing on him the entire 35 years.
Janet’s dream gave me goosebumps. If anyone that has ever lost someone extremely close to them would understand. It was her way to let her sister know that she is watching over her and she is in a good place and she shouldn’t worry about her.
Actually, it was her way of showing that she's more at peace with her sister's murderer now behind bars.
I don't quite understand the visitations in our dreams from the deceased but just maybe it's our angels ways of comforting us as we're grieving.
@@joannbyrd6324 It's been shown that dreams are just what's on our own minds. There's no evidence of the supernatural or the afterlife.
@@VioletJoy There is incredible, absolute evidence, if you open your heart and mind.
If she died being brutally murdered do you think she is in a good place watching over her sister?
So if the killer had not been released 7 years into a 14 year sentence, the killing would never have taken place.
He just found his wife dead, why wouldn't he be enraged? I feel thats the most normal reaction. I'd be calling for blood!
Enraged??? Panic and fear seem to be a more "normal" reaction.
He wasn't enraged. He just wanted help for his wife. It was probably a minute he called 911 after he found his throat slashed. His sole focus was getting the cops to his house as soon as possible.
@@aruglaempire2518 You mean you're saying its abnormal to be enraged to find your wife (or husband) not only dead but brutally assaulted and murdered? I'm sure he felt every emotion imaginable at that time, including enraged.
@@aruglaempire2518who are YOU to say what he felt wasn't "normal"?? So all people can do is cry? They can't be upset?? 🙄🙄
I found the husbands reaction to the dispatcher completely understandable under the circumstances. He didnt want to answer questions on the phone - he wanted cops to be there in person right away. I would feel every emotion including anger if I found my loved one murdered in our own home.
I love when genetic genealogy solves cases. It's such an incredibly powerful tool.
We have GOD's finger print on each one of us, DNA. What an awesome GOD!
The lady who knows how to find the DNA matches should be teaching other young people how to do that ,she’s getting older. It needs to be taught!
Good idea. I think signing up for statement analysis would also be a good gig. I would bet there is a course somewhere on the planet for your idea.
no, because it does not held up in court.
It’s pure speculation
Why is asking for a lawyer always signify being guilty? Even cops who are arrested ask for a lawyer when they get arrested.
I cannot imagine the stress anger and never ever ending sadness this family suffered through. My sisters killer was found immediately and although we are still devastated beyond words we had closer. God Bless the family and friends and all those who helped bring this family justice.
I’m sorry for your loss. 😢
🌹
I wish words could help to console survivors of victims such as your sister. I realize they cannot, but the thought remains. Hope your could live out your lives without joylessness.
Genealogy DNA tracing is the way forward for cold cases. The amount of cases solved this way is astounding.
i do not like the idea of searching through dna sites , privacy concerns in some states its illegal
I understand his anger . You call for help and they record you so the can try to trap you in the worst moment of your life.
40:35 I lost my sister 30 year's ago. She wasn't murdered, she had cancer. She was only 22 at the time of her death I used to have the most vivid and emotional dreams of her for years after her passing!
So I can sympathize with the sister.. when she is explaining the dream she had a Roxanne 💔
My Daddy died of cancer, I use to dream he came home and we all were celebrating, happy that it had all been a mistake, and Daddy was home! ❤😢
Its always smart to hire an attorney to protect yourself from false imprisonment. It's always the one thats falsely accusing the innocent that is the true criminal.
The genealogist is amazing and a real warrior. All these folks who think they have gotten away with their old crimes - people like Gabriela are coming for you! I love it. The unintended benefit of the family DNA craze!
They said the husband was acting too upset and angry but if he was too calm they'd have found that suspicious too. He did the right thing, lawyer up!
Yes what is with the police? Looking at these crime shows.
If the person cries they find it suspicious. If they remain stoic they find suspicious. If they get angry that’s suspicious. If they don’t get angry that’s suspicious.
Exactly, damned if you do or don't.
What a SHAME!!! A person smoking marijuana gets decades and has to serve their full sentence. But a man on attempted rape gets 14 years and serves only 7, and returns to society with the same intention and even worse, this time he kills!!
Lawmakers should be held accountable along with judges, DAs and those men who run the prisons like a business instead of a damn prison!
Janet looks so much like her sister, and this appears to have really thrown the killer for a loop at the hearing. Glad justice was finally served.
They did look almost like identical twins.
When she was first introduced I was so confused because I thought she was Roxanne
@@ericasilva9543 Agree- with the same haircut, Janet shows how Roxanne would've looked if she'd lived 20-30 years longer.
It's sick and unprofessional how they treated Teri Wood. I hope the family sued them.
The guy got convicted for 14 years and then he was released only after 7 years. What kind of justice is that! If he had done the whole 14 years, "Rock" would have never been killed! 💔
You don't know that. He could have assaulted her 14 years later.
But I agree he should have done the full time. Pay your dues!
People spend more time in prison for pot than for s. assault.
Who else is literally in tears listening to Janet’s dream? I’m a 30 year old man watching and bawling.
Gabriella is a badass! Love her Warrior Free Spirit vibe. Clearly, if she gets a hold of a bone she's not gonna to let it go.🤘💪

Gilham could've hurt so many other women. Rose and her family did their best to get this guy, put their faith in law enforcement to handle it, and lo and behold... they dropped the damn ball. I wonder what other near misses and potential victims who never felt safe or supported enough to report assaults are out there.
I'm wondering if there were other crimes against women that he did. A lot of women didn't report s. assault back then because they often weren't believed.
@@zxy78267 absolutely, heck I know multiple women who didn't feel safe enough to report or tried to report SA and weren't followed up with by police in present day. Even the lady who tried to raise alarms about Ian Watkins was told to "stop harassing him" when she was trying to warn the police that he was SA-ing kids, and that wasn't too long ago!! I wouldn't be surprised to find out that his victim count was much higher :(
@@eileenmarieabraham4363 honestly I can't imagine how he lived the rest of his life with that burden for so long, I don't think I would be strong enough to carry on. My heart breaks for the whole family, so many lives ruined.

Almost didn’t it say she *was* sexually assaulted
My bad….okay I’m at that part now
As soon as I heard Terry becoming angry and belligerent, I said 'not guilty at all!'.
If you've ever heard the grieving, panicked, hyperventilating, crying fake calls of killers (thanks to true crime shows, I've heard a lot of them), you can hear when someone is in real shock and panic. He sounded absolutely real.
You're no better than the police in this situation. The point is to not make assumptions based on the call as everyone acts differently. You clearing him based on just the call is silly.
@@JayTheDodo So there's no merit to tone and body language professionals, that the fbi uses, then?
He did sound real, but it's probably a mistake to assume you can tell somebody who's angry because they're lost and confused and grieving, from somebody who's angry because they're still furious at the person they killed.
I had a very similar dream about someone who died that included "We have missed you" conversations and shopping. But, at the end of the dream, he had to get on a bus with a lot of other people and go "north." I was on the bus that was driving past a beautiful, sparkling lake, too, but said I had to go back to teach school on Monday. He said to talk to the bus driver and I did. When turning around to go back to my seat, I all of a sudden rushed back throught the back of the bus and woke up in my bed. I believe I did get a dream visit from my friend and got a chance to have a little more time with him.
I had one dream where my sister visited me, and one where my brother-in-law visited me.
That sounds beautiful. 😢 My bipolar ex-partner, who was also a good friend of mine, committed suicide 5 days ago. I'm not religious or spiritual, but desperately hope that he comes visit me to give me the proper goodbye I never got. Life is so, so sad.

Many prayers for her family and loved ones. Rest in Peace Roxanne. When you see your family again, it will be for eternity. 🙏🏻 may God comfort her family and loved ones.
Great work by that forensic expert! Justice for the victims.
My auntie had a similar dream after my mum passed away. It’s so comforting.
Remember guys, don't be too all-American, don't be the life of the party and don't light up a room. Follow this advice and you'll live longer.☑️
Lmao
Yep, but Unfortunately, if someone is describing you using those, you're already dead🤷🏻♀️
And be sad, dislike people cause there self absorbed, keep that shirt on your bk
@@jr7845and never give your last dollar because they wouldn’t give it to you.
@@jr7845 Huh? Write clearly.
members of parole boards who release these predators should also be present at the trials of the violent crimes they go onto commit after they are released early. And they should be identified to the family/friends of the victims.
And held accountable.
@@jennybrown7717 100%
Yessss
So true, sometimes they cite "prison overcrowding" well duh build more.
@@MusicTennis like i get overcrowding but why are they releasing violent offenders? Why not low lever non violent inmates?
So many people who are innocent are sitting in prison right now!!!! That’s terrible to think about, but what’s worse & extremely terrifying is to think about the guilty ones still roaming free.
This woman is amazing at her miracle work. What a gift she has! ❤
They always let the perpatrators out of prison early to commit more crimes.
I don't understand what is wrong with letting a criminal rot in prison for the rest of his life??
Sexual assault should have longer sentences, and the sexual predators should finish the full sentence, even with good behaviour.
Roxanne would be alive if that man was in jail doing his full sentence.
The system failing to women again. 😢
I am with you 100 percent.
The killer got away for more than 30 years and I hope he lives and rots in jail for many many many years.
I wonder how many other women he assaulted. Back then, many, if not most, never reported. Women had to prove their innocence, rather than the suspects.
best host *is Peter Van Sant, his body language, blue eyes, face expressions follow up so well* telling the story..
That man should rot in prison! He had mostly a free life- it’s scary to think where we would be in society if we did not have DNA to solve these crimes.
We would be were we were before DNA: with piles of unsolved cases in files and detectives overwhelmed with paperwork at their desks not able y
to solve cases for years even when they worked hard trying to do so.
Thanks God for technology and for all of those in law enforcement and DNA experts that work so hard to bring the victim's family some peace and justice. I cannot beging to imagine the pain of those families.
23 yrs not justice. Death penalty or life without parole. System is still not doing justice. 😠 😡 😤 😠 😡 😤
Genetic genealogy is fascinating on so many levels! Well done!❤
When my daughter got shot. I was screaming like a crazy woman for them to get the ambulance here now. I was in complete shock. I felt bad but my child was laying on the floor shot.
I hope she's okay. 😥
I couldn't agree with you more.
That's exactly the thing. Everyone responds to this type of stress differently. I pray your daughter is okay.
@@L767-b2z ty yes she is doing g alot better. I just thank our father in heaven that she's still alive. 🙏
@@L767-b2z Yeah, if someone I cared about was bleeding out in front of me, I probably would forget my customer service voice. All you should need is an address and a location, then you tell me an ambulance is on route. 20 questions can come later
the fact that the police never showed up and never followed up when that family caught the guy makes me so angry...
Incompetent lazy cops
So he lived free for 35 years and could potentially get out in 17 years after raping and murdering someone? There is no way someone like that should ever see the light of day. People have spent longer sentences for selling weed
I can only say, I love when your loved ones come to you in dreams. I've had several people in my life die that meant so much to me and when you get to see them and talk to them once again... it's a treasure.
We were driving home from out of state from my sister's funeral. I hadn't had a lot of sleep in the rush to get our kids ready and make a long trip. I was exhausted. Our youngest son finally fallen asleep, and I leaned my head on the window and had just drifted off. I heard her voice say loudly and clearly, "Oh, my! You should see this!!!" I opened my eyes and was just stunned. Up on a hill on the side of the highway, there was a huge cross. I took it as a sign that she was okay. I still miss her every day, though.
This is sad. The police and the public blamed the husband for so many years. May God give him peace. May She rests peacefully
I am so happy the Wood & Woods families have found some sense of closure in the case and can now move forward with continued healing🙏🏾❤️
I too, like Janet, had a shopping dream of a dear transitioned relative. I asked if we should go to lunch after shopping and they, too, said they had to, "get back". I woke crying, the dream was so real. For months they kept coming back in vivid dreams. It's an electric spiritual energy only God knows. 🙏🏾👼🏼
Last year, I had a burst aneurysm that then caused a hemorrhagic stroke. I was in ICU for 3 weeks, the hospital for 8 weeks and in rehab for 3 weeks. Apparently, I was talking and interacting with people, but didn’t make any sense. I have absolutely no memory of this time, at all. Not even 5 seconds. But, the entire time, I was in my childhood house with my father sitting on the bed, holding my hand, and he had many conversations with me. He kept telling I was going to have to work hard but would okay. I am telling it felt very real and last over several days. He looked like he use to look when I was a teenager. I could feel his hand touching me, the bed sink when he sat down, the water he gave me, etc. It was just as real as yesterday. My father passed away in 2008. I truly feel he was really there with me. I have no doubts at all.
@@donnajoyner8907 I don't doubt it, either! That's amazing.
I love seeing justice served.
Is sickening see someone convicted without evidence! Rotten justice
4:32 we must protect that pink haired lady at ALL cost !
It’s midnight bruh, late enough. In that situation you don’t bowl another game, you accompany your wife home at those kinds of hours of the night
Absolutely man
The cops didn’t solve this, the DNA genealogist did.
I absolutely love how criminals live decades thinking they got away with it, and then get got. Love it
You live they got away for 30 years ?
They owe that man a PUBLIC APOLOGY
Her sister could almost pass as a twin .Thank god for the women who does not give up on cases like this .
There needs to be more schools teaching criminal justice assisting with cold cases. What a great way to get some hands on experience and help solve these cases.
Totally agree.
The more diverse the help, the more it helps! Getting people together who have different things to bring to the table can give the big picture, quicker and more accurate!
Omg imagine someone trying to sexually abuse you and you having to stay quite cause you don’t want ur children to get murdered marine was so strong. How this man served 7 years outta 14 is beyond me. They let him out just for him to go do the same thing again and cover his tracks this time or so he thought… RIP Rock
Evil never wins as much as it may look like it in this world it always comes back to bite the evildoer they pay one way or another so will the courts and judges to let the monsters back out on the streets they got Judgment Day face to
Sexual predators are never given enough time in prison. They always reoffend.
The men in power seem to have a sick sympathy for men that probably share the same twisted reality...imo
Terry was in shock and we all act in different ways, ridiculous lazy police work, police need to be retrained and if they dnt have empathy and compassion they should be thrown out.
You never forget being attacked, not talking about it can be because of Shame, shame given to you by your evil attacker.
A little harsh. Looking at other cases we see proven murderers, by dna, behaving in same way. Cops often bring prior experiences in new cases because they aren’t robots.
When you hear the "MUSIC" you know another case is solved 💗-- Well Done 48!!!
what would we all do without detectives,genealogist. great work by them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Everyone behaves differently, but based on his abnormal response he became a suspect." Does the cop know how stupid this sounds. He essentially says "There is no normal reaction" in one breath and then says "He acted abnormally" in the next
Did the detective ever apologize to Roxanne's husband?
Poor Roxanne she was so beautiful rip... thank god the family got their justice ! Gabriella is a hero ❤
I love when I hear the intro to this show. So glad the killer is named. It is amazing how he could have been caught so much sooner.
The intro is the best one of ever heard, in terms of True Crime shows, definitely!
