This is so infuriating watching this cocky killer lie on the stand, i can't even imagine what the poor victims mother is going through and the rest of her family, I hope he gets served up good in prison and he even looks like there's nothing behind his eyes but darkness, love to the victims families and friends love from IRELAND 🙏💚☘❤🇮🇪🙏
Three days missing when she went and found the dog!
Why didn't her parents know about the blood spatter in the evidence collected and subsequently ASK for the test results???
These uploads are fantastic. I am in Europe so cannot watch much out of the USA
- this channel makes up for it!👍
His fiancé is delusional.
My exact sentiment...like girl 😒
Very much so
He is innocent but she found out on her own he killed two family members…….okay
His arrest probably saved her life.
I suspect deeply hidden insecurities. Sad stuff.
Imagine feeling sorry for someone because they do not have family to spend Christmas with only to find out it’s because he killed them. OMG
MOST INSANE THING I HAVE EVR HEARD
Exactly she had a good heart and yet he killed her. He look like a freak from young
It's so scary, the amount of contempt abusers/rapists/killers feel for their victims, even though the victims were kind and showed compassion towards them. This shows that no amount of love or affection can reform abusers/rapists.
Narcissists/ sociopaths/ psychopaths can instantly spot an empath to manipulate. Its a well known dynamic. I hope all empathetic people become educated about this so they don't become victims. Give love to those who appreciate it.
😢
The mother having to go through losing her son to cancer and husband to COVID and being left alone is a true tragedy 😓 . 🙏 poor lady ...god bless her
My heart breaks for her. She's a strong woman to go through all of that and still be here today. I hope she can somehow find peace.
I know. God my heart goes to her
People die every day
Yes, so very heartbroken for her. God Bless her ❤
Fr, first her daughter got killed, her son cancer and her husband wow
Rick’s new fiancé needs her own documentary about how someone can be so delusional and make it that far in life
😂😂😂
🤣
💯
😂😂
It's called desperation, beggars can't be choosers
The police ignore it when she's reported missing, but the second someone says drugs might be involved they immediately raid her home. Disgusting where their priorities are at.
The thing they said to her about having to wait 48 hours is a myth. In most of the civilised world the police have to start looking immediately and you dont have to wait any time before you report missing person.
On the contrary when looking for a missing person experts will tell you that the first 24-48 hours is actually the most important.
TL DR: Having to wait to report missing person is a myth. Please make sure everybory knows it.
Really annoys me even if they're 30 they say just a run away get a bloody grip
and then sitting on the results for 20 years?! "We got the results back, let's not open it."
How many "they probably ran away" theories have to be proven wrong before they figure out your average adult doesn't just run away. Not even teenagers or kids for that matter. Is it just me or should pets being left behind immediately throw up red flags & the ran away theory taken off the table. People don't leave their pets behind. Esp locked in a cage or inside a house where they could potentially starve & suffer a very cruel demise.
Yeah that's crazy. I understand the police can't investigate everything all the time but anytime someone says that my family member is missing and it's unlike them to them missing patient. At least have someone look into it from the very minute it's reported.
Suprises me that his fiancé believes he is innocent. I wouldn't be caught with someone who has already killed his own mother and stepfather. That would be a huge red flag for me to stay away.
The problem is these types of people are very good at manipulating the people are them. It wouldn't be out of the question for him to play an already sympathetic audience to believe that he was an innocent child defending himself.
There is always a new dumb woman in their lives who "doesn't believe" they're guilty
When the time came, old age, money worries, stress - she could have been next. The clock was ticking.
@@itsmelivethen again there are weird women who see convicted killers as celebrities and date by mail and marry while they’re in prison.
Sadly, many women are just stupid. Rick's fiancee is one of them. "If the truth hurts, then let there be pain"
Omg, mom lost her daughter, then her son, AND THEN HER HUSBAND!! I cannot fathom the heartbreak she must've felt. I admire her strength to continue moving forward.
Wonderful lady much ❤️❤️❤️ don't want to walk in her shoes, the thought of losing one of mine sends me into complete decline.
They had the results for 20 years and didn't open them?
Brilliant work, as usual.
Absolutely insane
I can NOT get over that. My word.
Honestly feels like someone on PD at the time didn't want this case solved. I guess we should be grateful someone at least filed that envelope away because I'm sure those samples are long gone by now.
The results from the DNA tests done on the bed sheets, door knob and on the rugs that came back to Rick Ennis were discovered 10 years later ... not 20 ... although I totally agree that someone (or a few someones) dropped the ball. It's especially egregious when you consider the envelope that contained those results had never been opened.
And it happens the other way. Material that would exonerate a suspect is 'lost' putting an innocent person away for much of their life.
Do you believe Rick Ennis is a changed man? No. You cannot fix a psychopath.
especially killing his parents... i would never go out with anyone who did such a heinous crime!
@@kittyblingblingIt depends. The parents are abusive in many of these cases
@@Unbreakable245 For this, case, no! He killed his parents because they wanted to move! He should never have been released. He should have been tried at 21 and given life. He deserved it
Now he comes with the abuse thing? What a monster.
facts .
It doesn’t matter if he “changed his life around”. He’s a killer. He thought he got away with it. He needs to face consequences for past actions.
He is definitely a pos low life and I'm glad he's locked up. Got what he deserved!😊
👏👏👏👏👏👏
33:20 He literally confessed in court, am I the only one who caught it? He answers "I did, I did not" while shaking his head yes.
He will. Way down below.
@@tropicallymixed. Yep, I caught it too.
How do they not follow up on a case like this with evidence like that. Absolutely disgusting. Our Justice system NEEDS TO DO BETTER.
And his fiance' could have lost her life over that oversight. She is just lucky she said yes.
Fully agree…this dude left a trail everywhere including the one from his past…knives cleaning supplies drug bs…he should have been locked up 1 week after the crime…this was police incompetence on steroids
They were too busy checking the internet too see if someone said something 'bad'
Yes, but each department is different. Some are great and some are terrible, unfortunately. So many agencies are also typically involved with a case. If they all don’t communicate effectively then the ball gets dropped.
@@love2sing20101apologist much? (You might want to look up what that word means)
Should a child who brutally murdered his parents be released? Never.
I said no at first but it depends on why and how they killed someone. If it's a crime of passion, where they're experiencing abuse right then for the 100th time and they just can't take it anymore. Some type of legit self defense is understandable. I contemplated it with my stepdad tbh ,but I for some reason was able to think about the possible consequences. Even though I had witnesses from my family and friends of some things, I also tried reporting it. I told my dad and he took my mom to court and the judge sent me right back to that situation. Anyway, that would be the absolute only reason they should get out of prison.
The way his fiancé was immediately looking to justify
why he killed his parents tells me everything I need to know about her. What a ridiculous woman!
A ridiculous woman who has children under her tutelage.
She's what I call a *desperately seeking Susan* type of woman.
He killed his patents because his mom molested him.. So being sympathetic on him is normal
@@Moments93- And his stepfather? Why did he deserve getting shot in the face? And that's assuming I even believe him, which I don't.
The fiancée WAS and IS undoubtedly
SERIOUSLY DELUDED as well as stupid!!
(and ridiculous too!! 😮🤦♀️🤦♀️from Uk 🇬🇧)
Rick's fiance is delusional and a fool of the highest order! I feel an unfathomable amount of sorrow and sympathy for the mom, she's lost her Entire family.
She's a desperate lunatic!
His sentence probably has saved her life .
They need to let her live with him
Agreed
Most sociopathic people are charming and intelligent. Who doesn't know that? If he could do that to his parents....ijs
I can't believe there's been DNA evidence against that guy from the beginning but was overlooked because the initial investigators didn't look at the report. If the case wasn't reopened after 10 years, that envelop would have remained unopen and case would have remained unresolved. Thank God for the cold case detectives who found it.
Peanut 🥺 missed Lori so much too. Hes the true witness to what happened that night if only he could have talked.
If he could have talked he would have been dead.
My heart goes out to her mother. The amount of loss this woman has endured is wrenching.
One thing I noticed in life, women are stronger than men. They can handle more pain physically, and mentally
@@samdoors5132not true at all. And I'm a woman.
I do too. She lost both her children and her Husband in a matter of years. The hurt and pain must be horrible. But she is bearing it, and is seeing justice for her daughter.
I know,..it’s seems too much sadness and grief to bare.💔
the fiance said, they took the wrong person, oh my, what does she think, the dead victims were just fantasy? duh 🙄
He never told the fiance about murdering his parents...she stumbled across that info...and she STAYED?? I would have ran for the hills after that news..
Yes, I think he’s a changed man until things don’t go his way.
My prayers are with her mom. If you’re reading this, im sorry for everything you have gone through. The strength you have in your faith is inspiring. God Bless
The deep friendship of Lori‘s mother with the investigator at the end brought tears to my eyes. It takes a strong woman that has experienced such loss in life to remain a warm soft heart.
God bless them both! P.S not even religious.
Its incredible❤
"One tough lady." 40:51
This comment, and the 3 responses above, express everything I believe about Lori’s mother….I would be very happy to know her ! I would have felt honored to have Lori for a friend, and t the investigator obviously sees what beautiful kindred spirits she and Lori were…I have so much respect for them.🥰
Mine too, esp when she talked about that dog
The fiancee saying he didn't do it 🙄 GIRL, YOU DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HIM BACK THEN. STFU💀 Imagine wanting to have a man so bad that you ignore a mountain of evidence pointing at him. Embarrassing.
I loath her.
She must've been obsessed to have a relationship and this was her first 🤔😏
Right! She knew that fool for 4 years, desperate & dumb! 🙄
I fell out when they said she had a party ready for his acquittal. Now I'm not sure who dodged the bullet: her or HIM? Because ole girl isn't in her right state of mind either. He might be safer in prison💀
She's a hog and this was probably the only guy who has ever given her 2 looks.
In a case where a juvenile has committed a double homicide, his/her record should not be sealed because people need to know what they're dealing with. If the murderer gets released, they should be closely monitored for the rest of their life.
Rest in Peace Lori, you were and are deeply loved 💔
My deep sympathies to Lori's Mom, Arlene, for the terrible losses she has endured. Arlene, I pray that God continues to give you the strength to endure, until you see your precious family again.
Love from Dublin, Ireland.💖
Completely agree
Alabama protects criminals
I agree. I'm for treating juvenile offenders differently from adult offenders in terms of rehabilitation/sentencing etc., but sealing their records makes absolutely no sense. The most infuriating cases like this are in Britain where juvenile offenders get to just start a whole new life with a new identity, and any press outlet "outs" them, they can sue. Look up the Mary Bell case, your blood will boil.
Absolutely. These killers won’t ever change.
This poor mother has lost her whole family. Some people just go through such unimaginable suffering. I'm so sorry.
My heart goes out to Lori’s mother… she lost her daughter, then her son, and lastly her husband. I am sending strength, prayers, and positive vibes her way. 💞
... and Peanut
I wanna hug her 🩵 I hope she’s doing fine, and she’s taken care of her relatives and loved ones. God bless her 🩵
It’s beyond tragic and cruel isn’t it. But the strength of her character is outstanding!
@@FredCarpenter-pm8bf , well, that's just not true. Sad you feel that way.
Fred,your insane
When he said “I thought I’d be starting my life over” I can’t help but think, from what? All the killing? The wife is completely naive. She’s lucky to be alive. And boy does my heart ache for the mother💔 I can’t even fathom the amount of loss she has endured
The wife would of been next, good point that you made. Everyone in his life that he is close to has died, I think that he is a Serial Killer.
The fact that the results that shown the killer sat in a sealed envelope unlooked at for many many years is totally disgusting. The Son and Father could have seen justice as the evidence results were right there. That poor mother is feeling so much heartache for her.
the thing that struck me the most that i was surprised wasn’t discussed too much was the presence of HIS blood on HER door. the detective is absolutely right, your blood doesnt just end up in someone else’s house, it has to get there somewhere. i believe his answer of “im not sure” sealed his fate. he couldve said anything; dog bite, cut himself, literally anything but no. he said he didn’t know somehow. hopefully lori can be brought home to her mother so she can finally be at rest
The mum is a rock. Nothing but absolute respect to her. May Angels ride on her shoulders forever x
Well, she already has 3 around her all the time. (Four, if you count Peanut)
It's sad that there are some Evil Wicked people... starting with my x and his clan of liers of family...
@@arturovaldemar You def. can count Him. And The Mommy will see All her Angels when her Time is up, they are ALL in Heaven with Jesus where she is also going.
They fact he was released is insanity. I don't care how old you are what he did to his parents was so brutal, he obviously was mentally disturbed and should be in prison and getting mental help for the rest of his life. Shame on the system, he is psychotic and should have never been back in society.
Yeah it’s ridiculous - acting like anyone under 18 is “too young to know right from wrong” so they shouldn’t be held accountable is the ONLY reason this innocent woman is dead
That darn system
It's not the system per se, but the laws; and the laws are written by elected lawmakers.
So he was released from prison because of the law, but her parents have to wait 48 hours, when it had already been 3 days, before the cops would start an investigation, because 'she couldve ran away.'
Law Makers. DO better. 🤯😠
Also shameful that a man in Lori's life wasn't fully investigated. He told an obvious wild tale (lie) about the night she died, then he left town. Like ~ ? What more suspicious behavior is needed.
I have watched several 48Hours videos and this is the first time I cried. Some thoughts and prayers for Mrs. Slesinski. She is so brave after losing both her dear children and husband; I can't imagine her pain. May God bless her and give her some comfort daily♥️🙏
Why the hell will they release that maniac that killed his parents at 12 and lived with their corpse? That’s an evil and highly dangerous child.
I was one of Lori's patients at the day program she worked at. When I first watched this, I cried my eyes out as I remembered her kindness and laughter. It sickened me that a bright star was taken away so brutally. I hope one day we can find her remains so she can be buried with her dad and brother. We miss her and do speak of her often.
I live in Montgomery and I don't recall hearing about this case. My heart was hurting for Lori and her mom throughout watching this. I even pictured myself walking those tracks and the area where her car was found.
Do you recall whether there was a thorough search of the areas surrounding her car?
I wish we could organize a volunteer search for Lori, for I'd drive there and help.
I hope and pray she's found and gives a proper burial with her family while her Mom is still here to see...it would give her so much closure. This case really hit me, and it's nice to read your comment about Lori. Her kindness shows in all of her photos. 😞🙏
I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend.
Who cares
@@pancakedaddypro what a stupid comment.
@@pancakedaddyproyour nuts!!
The original investigators should be ashamed of themselves.
Lazy and incompetent. Makes me wonder how many cases they failed to do their job?
Maybe those investigators didnt truly believe this guy was guilty or that they had enough to convict..I dont think they were incompetent...just saw this case different than the new guy.
You forgot the quotes: "investigators"
Take pensions away!
@djsi38t You don't consider leaving unopened an envelope containing valuable evidence incompetence? Then I pray that you and anyone you hold dear are never murdered.
The fact that the dog lived to be 16 and never ever forgot lori has me emotional 😢 damn ! Dogs are really our best friends ! 🥹♥️🙏
So so true...❤️
A dog loves his human more than his own life.
And the picture with her, he was all smiley. It broke my heart
They hold such special space within our hearts ❤ true soulmates.
In so many of these docs I find I get most upset when they reveal there was a dog that was a witness to the crime and we never find out what happened to them. I know they were haunted. At least with Peanut we know he was loved and cared for and not discarded in a shelter.
My heart breaks for Lori’s mom. She is absolutely one brave lady and hope she finds some peace despite all the tragedy that has surrounded her.
I’ve never cried watching a case until now. My heart is broken for her mom 💔 May God give you peace 🙏🏽✨
I understand and agree that juvenile criminals should have different treatment by the law from adult criminals. But when the crimes involve a "profound" level of violence I think authorities need to recognize the kid could be permanently dangerous. Any kid who murders his parents at 12 years old is DEEPLY disturbed. He needs -- at a minimum -- to be continuously monitored perhaps into his senior years.
So you think they did the right thing, but you’re still mad about it?
@@animula6908 Nothing in my comment gives the slightest hint that I'm "mad" about anything.
Exactly
@@animula6908 I think you’re misunderstanding the OP. What they’re saying is juveniles do not deserve the death or life sentence that adult murderers receive, BUT they still need to be heavily monitored to prevent repeat behavior in their adult years, which I agree with.
@@animula6908did you even read her comment?
My friend was murdered by a 16 year old when she was 15. He served 25 and was let out under the juvenile excuse even though he was initially given life without parole because of the circumstances and nature of his crime. This is my worst fear that he is out in our community again when he is a clear psychopath. All it will take is someone pushing the wrong buttons. I pray for anyone who enters his inner circle. 😢 This case proves juvenile offenders will repeat their crimes in some circumstances but the justice system would rather play Russian roulette with innocent lives.
Was the case highlighted in the news? im just a bit curious.
And his name is?
Robert Eugene Leamon III you can Google the case. It’s been in the media multiple times
No matter how heinous the crime, the Supreme Court ruled life sentences for anyone under 18 is unconstitutional 😒 If the victim doesn't have a chance at life then the murderer shouldn't either, but that's just my opinion
I'm so sorry for your loss!
The prosecutors level of pettiness is what I aspire to one day be!
“Is there anything else you want to blame on the dog”?”😂
😂😂😂
@@blessedbygod3430 😂😂
Okay, I just started this, but peanut sounds like the most adorable treasure. Won't walk on tile? That's absolutely silly, and precious.
I noticed that too.
The dog doesn't walk on tile?
Oh.
OK.
Our animal friends are so sweet and funny. It's a joy to accommodate them.
The part when Lori's mom was walking with a cane through Lori's mobile home to reminisce and feel close to Lori - broke my heart.
Apparently moved it to her home to keep as a memory...it was very touching😪
rick’s fiancé is delusional. to even connect yourself w a monster like that i feel like you have to be deranged yourself.
Or desperate for a man
@@kRomani-gh4ws ...and the fool even made 🍽️ plans to celebrate a "not guilty" verdict. How delusional can u b‽
Very scary. She is like him. She is a bystander and indirectly an enabler.
He would have killed her too ..... eventually. The jury verdict did her a big favour.
I’d make a guess and say that most likely she has lived in highly abusive relationships as a kid, that type of life leaves a huge scar on the soul and mind, deforming perception of people, unless given professional help.
Thank God for cold case detectives! Great job!!
This case is so frustrating !!! There was that envelope closed from so many years linking him directly and no one followed up🤦♂️
I worked with Arlene, a great and compassionate nurse and was Lori’s mom. Lori was just as kind as Arlene stated in this video. It was a Terrible day at work when Arlene got that call. It took forever for this to go to trial, with so many disappointing delays. But finally, justice was served, but to this very day, Ennis has not disclosed where Lori’s body is located. Arlene continues to be a very Strong and Stoic woman. Every night, in my prayers, I continue to ask God to bring Lori home to her mother.
Listening to her Mom, Arlene, talk about Lori breaks my heart.😢 I’m so sorry she’s endured so much loss. Sending love from Ky & prayers for peace.❤
Is she still working with you or has she retired now? Her life must be a constant state of sadness. Did she ever say how 48 Hours got her to agree to do this show? Do they pay the families to do this? I always wonder about that because I have been watching crime shows since Forensic Files first came out in 94 and I wonder how these shows get the victim's families to talk relive it and talk so much about it.
@@TWHISPERER I retired in 2019 and had not gone to trial. The only thing she said was in a post on her Facebook page, saying that an episode on 48 Hours, featuring Lori’s disappearance was going to be on such & such date and time. I was not a close personal friend of Arlene, but a a coworker and saw and spoke to her everyday. The kind of questions you mention, would not be appropriate for me to ask. What happened to Lori and Arlene is not something you expect to happen to people you know, work with and care about, especially in smaller cities. Auburn is a college town not a big metro city, like say, New York. It was a shock to all who knew Arlene and of course, Lori. So happy for Arlene that Ennis was convicted and to remain in prison for the rest of his natural life, without the chance of parole. I just wish he would tell where Lori’s remains were placed or buried, either that or wish someone would discover her remains. My personal opinion, is that Lori’s remains are somewhere in the Tuskegee National Forest; none of us know, only Ennius.
@silverbullet4055. Lovely that you still pray that every night. Faithful.
@@TWHISPERERit's all about 💵 but amazing show
Those initial incompetent investigators should be penalised too. All clues were there but DNA wasn't tested, what a travesty. R.I.P Lori
agree
it’s rediculous
ridiculous
Yep track down take pensions away no joke WTF!
In the early 90’s DNA testing was in its infancy and very difficult and expensive to access. They may not have had a way to get DNA testing done.
I pray her mother can find a way to heal through everything she’s had to endure. She’s loss so much & she truly seems like a wonderful mother.
Thank you to that detective who never gave up!!! And to all law enforcement who really do care! ❤️
So much loss for Arlene her 2 kids and husband. Feel bad for her. I’m happy she got justice for her daughter!
This story was so sad. Arlene is a strong woman to have went thru so much
Omg i cant stop cryin for her😢
When they said that part my heart dropped . Wow . Thats devastating. Had to bury both of her kids 😢. What a strong women 🤎🙏🏾✨
,,, and Peanut
Very strong woman cuz she still doesn’t know where her daughter body is 😢
I don't cry a lot but this hurt. The mom is all alone. She lost her daughter , son and husband. I'm so glad that detective is there to watch over her. This still makes me believe there are good people !❤❤❤
Yeah that's just absolutely horrible
Yes her son didn’t seem to have had any kids 😢
Gosh… her daughter, son, husband, and then dog Peanut died. That’s so tragic… I hope she’ll find peace
No, No second chances. A murderer is a murderer. I know of one and he killed again many years later and he went back to jail.
I remember 48 hours before the Internet. Now I’m so grateful that I can see 48 hours on the Internet. Peoples life stories need to be told and listened to. If one goes a lifetime without a tragedy, count yourself truly blessed.
These are also truly educational tbh.......
Its not that old
@@clivebaxter635435 years ago it premiered. I remember watching it when I was young and it eventually became must see tv for me about 20 years ago. Saturday nights at 10:00 on CBS kept me at home when I could’ve been out partying.
Truly “fortunate.”
I LOVED watching these shows with my mom. Like American Justice and City Confidential. It's so nostalgic, lol.
Wow the best friend knew so much about her house! That's legitemately incredible and her attention to detail gave so much away of what might have happened.
My heart goes out to that poor mother. She lost her whole family. I am glad that she finally got to see justice for her daughter. The murderer clearly lied about his mother and Laurie because he is an immature individual that was unwilling to take responsibility for his heinous actions.
Sending my deepest condolences to her mom. What a strong woman she must be. ❤
She 100% rejected him and his little ego couldnt handle it. Poor mother sometimes life isnt fair 😢 every time he wouldnt get what he wanted he did the same!
Exactly, I think you're spot on
💯💯💯
Absolutely. He did the same thing to his parents when he was only 12!! He didn't get his way, and therefore, he killed them... total narcissistic psychopath!
There's more to the story. This is psychological. On the narcissism side. It's more than 'his little ego'. They missed all of the signs. You can't tell me there was no signs. This isn't just about ego. He's 12 dude.
I'm a ex con and some people have no empathy. You can detect if a person has empathy. It's all about empathy. Some people are just born evil.
Probably they are not humans,just evil entity incarnation in human bodies
I love your UA-cam picture! ❤ Hilarious...
TRUE WORDS
@@marygoff3332 get ready for many false flag episodes. Headlines today reads.. Jan 6th rioter arrested near obamas home.. Bombs and guns.
@@marygoff3332oh my word 😂 I had to see 😂 I am South African
He has NOT changed, still n forever will be a MONSTER
once a killer, always a killer. they don't understand you can't force anyone to love you. it doesn't work.
When they set those killer kids free, they should tattoo ‘I killed my parents’ on their forehead. So we know who we are dealing with. I feel so sorry for the mother. Losing her son and husband too. It’s heartbreaking.
I know it's not funny but....The tattoo 😂😂😂
I have been saying the same for child pedophiles.
We tell our kids to watch out for the bed people, but don't tell them how to know they are bad. A simple "P" branded into their forehead is an easy way every child can tell.
@fancymealter1311 that's a great idea. Should be a disfiguring brand all over the face. I hope I live to see that implemented.
This is actually a real thing that used to be done in china/Japan I believe- anyone who got into any kind of trouble got 3 strikes. Each time they would get a tattoo of something on their forehead or face- once they got to the third tattoo they were sentenced to death. As soon as they got the first tattoo they couldn’t get jobs, housing, etc. they were out casted.. I wish they would bring this back for certain people!
@@laurenS94 I, personally think we have gone too soft on punishment. Many inmates are doing better than working people on the outside. Yes it is true inmates can not just take a drive to the beach or have that freedom.
However people on the outside are unable to afford to do it. They are unable to take a day off work, pay for gas ect. The freedom is there to do it, however, they are imprisoned by just surviving. Paying rent, insurance, health, food, taxes. They must work everyday 9-10 hours just to have what law breakers are given.
I think. Mr.Peter van sant is the best reporter amongst the others in this program..
Agreed!
Excellent! He's a true ace of his profession!
Let's not forget Keith Morrison...
Agree
@@user-dw4cs4xv8y I prefer Keith Morrison.
I wish I could give her mom a hug. Shes been thru more pain than anyone could bear. What a strong woman
She's endured more pain in her 1 life than most see in multiple peoples lives. My heart breaks for her and I hope she's surrounded by so much love to help her every day.
I don’t know how this dear mother endured the loss of one child, let alone two…and her sweet husband. Just unbelievable. 😭
May God grant her comfort, strength, and peace.
Man....I cried absolute tears when she finally was gonna get justice...Covid happened and her lost her husband to it and also lost her son to cancer...My God the amount of loss she has occurred at the most ruthless times is devastating. She is strong! I couldn't bare that at all....
Life doesn't give you a choice in that department.

elena and rick are perfect together because they are both insane
Previous murderers should register same way as sexual predators are required to register with local authorities. Likewise, a website to show where they live.
How do you lose important evidence? These cops are ridiculous....
In this case it was detectives. You know what sucks? It's their job. And you know how someone can mess up their job and get your order wrong? Police are doing their job and mess up. Not that I like most police I meet...
It happens more often than you think. No real checks and balances for evidence keeping, apparently.
END QUALIFIED IMMUNITY!!!
@@derekjeter9083 Someone messing up your order at McDonalds is an entirely different universe of a mistake compared to the law enforcement messing up evidence like this dude. One has life/death consequences and the other (usually) doesn’t. It isn’t fixable once someone loses a life
@@HellaQuinn no duh. How do you suggest fixing humans tendency to make mistakes? And why would you only apply it to cops?
I feel sorry for the mother from the bottom of my heart.It's so bad when you lose three family members that you love dearly
No second chance for juvenile murderers.
Some kids are just born evil.
I can't imagine both of my children and my husband. That is devastating
I cried for this woman. She has lost everybody close to her and yet, she's still strong. WOW.
The mom, Arlene is a Registered Nurse, we are a tough bunch ! 😅
The BEST moment of the trial; when the prosecutor walks right by him and asks... "is there anything else you'd like to blame on the dog🐕??? LOVED IT🤗! Don't care how "sweet" some people may think he is; he's got "I'm a LIAR" written ALL OVER HIS FACE!!!
The way he shook his head yes, while saying 'No Sir'... when being asked if he killed her 🤨 32:18
AND a horrible mean mouth too!!
Just a total scumbag POS 🤦♀️🤦♀️
Hope he rots in jail….the evil 👿 creep!!!
@@EyesWideOpen2 He also Doupers Delight (or whatever you call it) when they ask him if he told his friend if he he "he had to strangle a Bit**".
@@EyesWideOpen2 37:07 He looks like such a snake here, he know damn well that he killed that poor girl. There is zero reason to be smiling in that courtroom, what a total psychopath!
When a child deliberately, intentionally kills someone, there is obviously something very wrong. They shouldn’t just be turned loose at 21. They should have some kind of regular supervision for the rest of their life.
The guy gives me the creeps. My father abused me as a child - never once did I consider killing him. That's psychopathic behavior. The gf reminds me of women who start relationships with men in prison for awful crimes because "...he's changed. He's not that person anymore. " bulldookey
It makes me so mad to see these killers just move on with their lives like they haven’t destroyed families.
He’s in prison for life…. Thankfully
I want to give Arlene such a big hug! Her struggles in life and losing all of her family brought tears to my eyes.
This one has me crying. The strength, tenacity, and the tenderness of Mama Arlene! The love Peanut had for his beloved human, Lori. I am just sobbing. God bless Arlene and her new dog companion, Daisey. Someday, I know in my heart, Arlene will be reunited with Lori, her son, her husband, and all the furry babies loved and cherished along the way. That cold case detective also touched my heart, and I’m glad he and his wife have become good friends to Arlene.
🌹
❤️❤️
My goodness that mother has been through the unthinkable. No words 😣😣
Lori's mother has gone through more than most, and is still such a great woman ❤ Also, poor Peanut, still running when he hears Lori's name 😭
Her new friendships saved her life! She's got great support from them...
I know - I was just sobbing over Peanut....🩵
I wish they could at least find her body. It’s very sad to even think that her mother has to mourn her without any part of Lori.
I hope one day they will get to know what actually happened to her.
I wish the dogs hair was on the rug
My thoughts are he probably hid the body somewhere along those railroad tracks.
I cried at the end when whitaker said i love you to her mom !! So special. What an investigator , what a bond
I really feel for the mother. She is extremely resilient.
The co mom Arlene is an RN we are very tough and resilient! 😅
Peanut never forgot her. For some reason that's the one thing that brought tears to my eyes. Not that I didn't have empathy for her relatives and friends. Peanut never lost hope. Everyone else did. He couldn't understand the reason.
This exactly! That poor dog waited until he died for her to come back 💔
That poor woman, so much loss 😔
The PD was so incompetent. First thing you should do is to find out the history of the suspect who hadn't even changed his name. So useless. So sad for Lori's mum.
God love her beautiful mama. I cried like a baby throughout this case. Prayers for her mama🙏🏼
Crying...That poor woman , who lost her daughter, son to cancer, husband to Covid...Lil 🥜 peanut...This lady strength is amazing. God bless her ❤ The heart ache some folks suffer is so unfair. May She find peace❤
Her poor mother has suffered so much. What a strong woman.
The b mom is an RN very tough and resilient. 😅
Delayed justice for the Mom, unnecessarily delayed by the lazy Investigators. Justice delayed is justice denied.
That's right!!
“The wheels of justice turn slowly but surely “
Justice was served. Not denied
The man will spend the rest of his lifetime in a steel & concrete cage
The Mother is at peace now knowing what happened to her daughter
All is well that ends well
I hate that. So often the punishment doesn’t come for a whole lifetime. The killer gets to have ( in lots of cases) a wife, children and all the experiences he robbed his victim of.
not lazy i think they believed they did not have enough to convict or maybe believed he may have been innocent.
How!? They had all the same evidence, background info available, etc.
Her poor dog must have suffered untold anguish and loss too.
How unfortunate that the fiancé is so incredibly delusional. You almost couldn’t ask for more solid evidence and she is still “hE DiDn’T dO iT.” I sort of feel bad for her but also, people like her are almost as scary as murderers in their own way.
Don’t feel bad for her. She’s an adult and making her own decisions. Women aren’t children as much as other women want to pretend we are. She needs to be held accountable
This is why the public should have been made aware of his sick past! Rest easy sweet girl!
This story broke my heart. I have had to face criminals in my life and learned they can be so well mannered , charming and seemingly above the law. Sometimes in high ranking positions, undetected , manipulative, lying Demons
Whoa did you see him shake his head yes in court when they ask him if he killed Lori??? He says no but his head nods yes… 33:18
Because they are sociopaths. I have a family member who was a horrible child. I always wondered why they treated me so horribly and liked to see me in pain. Always hurting me, and cruel. I always knew there was something wrong with him , I just couldn't articulate it. I'm 43 he's 44. He's been in and out of prison twice, been through numerous drug habs, several kids from 3 different women, diagnosed by 2 different doctors as a SOCIOPATH. It all makes sense to me now. My parents are in denial. But I ALWAYS knew & now I stay as far away from him as possible. He is a narcissist, who deceives people with charm. He never fooled me.
Very true .. lookup Jupiter Joe from the Bronx he was my friend and fooled me
@@Emerald.s Stay away from him and your parents. It's likely their egos that will not allow them to face the fact that their son is a monster.
What an amazing woman
May she heal more and more and keep being in the light💖🙏
Peter Van Zant your work on 48 HOURS is over top, top notch.
As well as Jim Axelrod you both bring so much to all the cases you both cover
The man who is such a good friend to the mom after all of this is a precious soul. People who have experienced this level of tragedy aren't always so lucky to have understanding and helpful friends in the aftermath.
I knew "Rick" for the 2 years he lived in Virginia, because the woman he worked for is my neighbor. First few times I met him seemed like he was a cool guy, but over time you figured out the life story he told had a lot of holes in it. Lots of claims of skills he had but turned out none of it was true. The only thing from what I could see was that Rick was a master at manipulation and getting people to believe his fabricated stories. It's unfortunate but his boss and his Fiance were one of the many that fell for his grift in so many ways.
I’d love to hear some examples of some of these “holes” and lies.
What an amazing Mother! I wish her Peace and happiness as you so deserve❤❤
