I can't imagine, at 15, finding your mother murdered like that (or any way!). I don't know how hard it must have been to carry on. I wouldn't wish such a thing on anyone.
Absolutely traumatizing
The way she was found i thought this was gonna be a 'daughter and her boyfriend didxit case' so im relieved that wasnt the case at least..
@@scottaznavourian3720 I thought that was the way this video was going also! That the daughter and bf did it and locked themselves out, explaining the lack of DNA.
He was 11
It’s not that big of a deal.
I would never marry someone suspected of murdering their previous wife.
Exactly. That’s a death trap waiting to happen. These type of women are insane & except us to be surprised
That’s if you know about the information before marriage
She probably a stripper, and has other issues. I know it's bad to judge by looks, but something's not right
@@shachede6828 how do you marry someone without knowing everything about them? This isn't something small.. People need to stop getting married so easily!
Right?
The cop immediately got defensive of the guy some lady just said was trying to kill her. Creepy
Police live in the 1800s out there 😂
you're only seeing a few [selected] seconds of this interview, maybe we get the wrong impression!
I know, it's scary
@@xTerminatorAndyI mean… he ended up killing her. The woman was right and the cop being defensive was horrifying.
To give him the benefit of the doubt he might have had that reaction as a way to get her to say something a bit more concrete because she was vague in her initial answer. Of course he could also be a horrible misogynist who immediately dismisses claims of abuse.
I had been in a violent and abusive marriage for thirteen years. When I finally got the courage to leave him for good, I got an apartment, moved out of the house then filed for divorce. That’s when the violence escalated to the point that I was convinced he was going to kill me.
I would call the police because he was in front of my apartment calling me on the phone and threatening to blow my brains out.
I literally looked like death warmed over because I was in a constant state fear and couldn’t keep any food down.
When the police came I was shaking in fear and crying while telling them what was happening. They chuckled and said, if anything really happens give us a call.
Hopefully by now, police officers have been trained to respond differently
Horrible, Heartbreaking. Im so sorry
That’s because you women LIE all the time about being abused and raped. Tens of thousands of times a year! Don’t know if you lied or not. 50/50 chance you telling truth. But don’t blame cops. They hear these BS stories so much, they become jaded.
@@grandma460 you so sorry because some women claims this? You don’t know her and half the cases of rape/abuse are total BS!!
Hope all that s Good now!!
@@junebuchholtz287 and I’ll say again. You have no idea if true. Sounds like total BS to me.
Crazy how the detective is so dismissive toward Jordan Howard, "So you're just afraid...."
we've only seen a few sentences here, not the entire interview
He's saying that on purpose so she will explain herself better
I don’t think they want to come off that way, but if they took EVERYONE AT THEIR word, they would never be able to help anyone!
You can’t judge based on such small facts. In all honesty, if I was her, I’d have Obtained My Concealed Hand****** License. Practice….Practice….Practice
Not really crazy to not take serious allegations serious without some kind of substance to back it up.
So heartbroken for the daughter. I can't imagine what finding her Mom has done to her. Losing her is hard enough but to find her murdered is a completely different kind of trauma. Wishing her all the best.
Exactly!!! I lost my mom when I was 15 to cancer and it’s horrible! I can’t fathom what it’s like for her. I still think about my mom on her death bed and I’m sure that poor young lady thinks about that day more than she would like to. May she find peace someday to live her life for herself and her mom backing her up all the way. This is just tragic all the way around.
@@lizyt9821I hope you're doing okay now days. 🫂
Why is that detective so antagonistic at the beginning of that interview? It seems wildly inappropriate.
Nah, it makes total sense. An astonishing amount of people make up stories just to get their partners in trouble. So, make the person angry and see if the story remains logical and consistent.
@@prunabluepepper they should at least approach the situation professionally. It is within their job description
@@prunabluepepper and only like 3% of actual cases result in jail time for a real assailant so who gives a fuck about this dumbass strawman argument
I think if you were trying to remove a partner from your life accusing them of admitting to murder would be one way to do it. The timing of her accusation would make someone justifiably concerned. I think the ex husband had to be the mastermind but this "witness" is not someone I would immediately believe to be telling the truth.
Until the female cop entered the room. He's a pos
police say see something say something and then when you say something they respond 'so youre just scared.'
They have to test what you say. If you backpedal on your statements, contradict, wind them up and send them on a wild goose chase and so on.
@@CT2507do you use donut glaze when you throat detectives?
@@MrNinjaman63 No, I use Mario cum.
@@MrNinjaman63 you know you can just say you’re dumb and don’t understand what’s known as an explanation lol
You can't just make an outlandish claim like that and expect to be taken seriously without proof, especially if you have a mental illness or neurodivergency that could predisposition you to feeling paranoid or having persecutory thoughts.
It’s troubling that the cop is so dismissive immediately.
I mean she didn’t seem very believable. 96% of reported domestic violence cases made by the women are false accusations attempting to get their husband arrested.
I had thought the same thing!
They just wanted her to be clear for the recording.
@@Starriibubblesliterally 😂
Yeah “whoa whoa whoa” hahaha what a tard.
I really like this channel. They cover cases I've never heard of, which is becoming quite rare.
THANK YOU!
You really do great editing work. Captivating, logical, and insightful. And again, the lengths of your videos are ideal. I've been glued to your channel for two days, man. lol Cheers!
The beginning is why people don’t report things like this
Nahh... its not. People don't report cause they are either too invested in the relationship or have a low self-esteem or other reasons.
@@CT2507no what they said is exactly right. Being afraid it won’t be taken seriously and in her case this officer wasn’t doing his job. The detective had to come in and comfort her and actually listen.
@@CT2507 ok well I know first hand and it sounds like you’re just assuming
@@BrownieForMyBrownieMurder is a huge accusation. That's why the officer said "woah, woah, how do you know?" It caught him off guard, but he was taking her seriously that's why he reacted like he did. He didn't mock her or belittle her. He asked a question any reasonable person would ask, and then brought in a detective. That is him doing his job. Idk what you expected him to say or do differently?
You do realize the detective didn't just come in, but was brought in because of the officer right? How else would the detective even know to come in?
People think that what happened at the beginning was the cop just not believing the woman because they don't understand that you need to tell the cop certain things and he can't lead you into saying those certain things in order to do anything about whatever..
The first cop asking questions is not good at his job...literally the worst.
'In the States.' LOL As if the rest of the world is better LOL
@@Edelwiess1066Yes... Much much better!
@@Edelwiess1066 so the rest of the world is corrupt so you believe we should be okay with it? Shouldn’t even bring it up?
Do you ever wonder why you defend with such contempt? I prefer to not defend such conduct. I don’t mind calling it wrong in every way shape or form. We could have less psychos in our law enforcement by requiring psychological profiling. Once you get these psychos in and they climb the ranks they only hire people who will be loyal sycophants to them especially if it means breaking the laws.
@@Edelwiess1066if we can avoid giving the next golden state killer a badge by requiring psychological evaluations of all law enforcement officers than we should. There are other some other jobs that should require them too.
Fast and bulbous
Thanks for making Monday more bearable!
Have you tried narcotics?
Your Monday would FLY by on narcotics!

''When you feelin' life's too hard, just go and have a talk with God.'' - Stevie Wonder 😇💙
Kinda odd statement.
Them uploading a homicide case that actually happened in real life makes your Monday more bearable?
Imagine if the family of the victim saw that statement.
They’d be thinking “I’m glad my daughters death made your Monday more bearable, glad we could be of service”
I watch these channels too but yall are kinda thoughtless about the way you word things. Sorry not sorry.
Wild that Brian hasn't been held accountable, what did he have on Russ for him not to say anything?
Facts. He had info on more than just one kill
They didn't do it.
@@thomasdalton2042sure thing, buddy
@@horseygirl03 You sound like a white-knighter here. He wasn't charged and didn't do it, why do you have a problem with that?
You are smearing him without proof dude. At least say * allegedly*
Love that this is JCS inspired and love that you gave the OG credit. But you carrying that heavy torch keep up the amazing work.
The phone call between Mike and Russel didn't seem incriminating to me. Maybe they knew the phone was tapped though.
I know right.... to me it kinda sounded like the opposite of incriminating??
It seemed like the brother of the suspect was creeped out to me. Like he was feeling his blood run col
insane to think they can tap your phone, zero privacy
If anything the call seemed to point to their innocence. The DNA could have been there from when he was there 2 days before, I don't know what evidence they convicted him on? And then the current wife said her husband, Melissa's ex named someone else when he said he killed her, I would never have convicted.
Sloppy work
I absolutely believe that not all the guilty people involved are behind bars there's a whole lot more behind this story than what is being told
Yes.There is.They convicted a man,beyond a reasonable doubt, even though they had THREE SUSPECTS,and the cops are STILL IN DOUBT...
“Married living boyfriend”
Idk how ppl cheat all over the place,I can’t even find someone to date
Sorry about that, but look at the bright side YOU ARE STILL ALIVE😊
To be fair, once you're dating someone, cheating is really easy.
@@derekvancampenhout5530i will rather be alone 😂
Dude, the way you put these together is just amazing story telling. You have a talent.
I am afraid my husband is going to kill me. Whoa, whoa, that never happens, are you just being irrational?? Disgusting cop.
It's all cops
@@radiofreeacab no its not
Right?? I get wanting more info and gleen into why someone would think that but he acted like its never happened in the entire world. I wouldve plum walked out bc atp, I'll just die to prove that i was right
Most cops really want the prestige without doing any of the work.
I took it as “we all think he did it, now tell me how you know”
Once i realized ive been watching this channel for 3 hours straight, i had to subscribe !!!
STAYAWAKE = best crime documentary channel
Yeah 100% they aren’t always super long sometimes I don’t wanna invest 2 hours into an interrogation that’s mostly pointless. He explains the story well and the editing is great
All I see is facts 💯
This is very true. Definitely my favorite crime documentary channel. Precise and interesting.
@@bugtesties dude i cant stand the ones that are like 2+ hours of edited footage, I like having commentary, plus to me it just comes off so lazy.
Top 2 jcs #1
That cop who is interviewing her is awful, he shouldn't be in that position. No empathy
You're doing a great job. Solid start just keep it up. Using your own voice already puts you in the top 10% in my book.
I have been refreshing my youtube page all morning waiting for that upload! Solid work as always!
A true reminder of how grateful I am to have a kind, loving partner 🙃
And it reminds me of why I stay single 😊
Refreshing to read that there is still at least 1 grateful woman on earth. You’re a unicorn 🦄!
@@zacharypelphrey6166There's plenty
So you think
@@zacharypelphrey6166 exactly xD such a weird comment to begin with. Not sad for the murdered lady but happy for not being her lmao. A real unicorn
I understand that you have to meet certain criteria of a threat before police can get involved, but the way the officer spoke to her at the beginning left a really bad taste in my mouth. I half expected him to say, "Woah there, little lady, let's calm down. I'm sure you've just had a misunderstanding, now, don't get hysterical."
Hey whoa there, you're in here 3 months after another guy got convicted for this crime, to life in prison, and now you're rolling in here telling us you've known it was husband all this time? Which sounds like exactly what she did.
@kenw2225 It's possible for a detective to go into an interview with skepticism, or even anger, without immediately being overtly dismissive. Not only does that sort of behavior erode the public's trust (and importantly, possibly a jury's), but it also makes witnesses less likely to cooperate. It's just not effective.
And it's not his job to pass judgment on the situation. It's his job to gather information in as impartial a way as possible. If he can't maintain a professional and effective demeanor, I see that as a problem. The detective's opinion of a witness, person of interest, or suspect needs to take a back seat.
@kenw2225. Goodness, you're intent on pushing that myopic & cringy narrative.
Better than being intent on pushing "the detective is dismissive". All the women love putting themselves in the position of a "victim" and believing any allegations another one makes on a man. Regardless, her timing rightfully, elicited a perplexed reaction from the detective. Sorry you cant manage to grasp it
Its not judgement.. her wording made it look like she had been concealing knowledge of a homicide. Thats a crime depending on the circumstances
That detective at the start dismissing her concerns immediately is EXACTLY why so many women wind up murdered by their own husbands…just disgusting
It's why you don't report it too, you'd be surprised how many times I got that reaction and not just from male officers so I stopped going to them because they didn't do anything and all it did was make hom angrier so I waited until he was sent to jail for something else and left.
that's totally false. men make up most of murder victims and their cases are the least looked into. Threats against violence are way more looked into and their murder cases more often solved.
that's false. women are listened to more than men, just as many as who end up jailed/homeless, offed by her bf or a hitman, or suiC1ding themselves. The reason so many women get offed is 1. most DV is bilateral, so it just looks like 2 ragers and 2. murder is a hard crime to predict and stop when the perp is a close contact of the victim. Mainly we just don't hear about the male victims despite them being the majoriy, nor are femae perps prosecuted much
A lot of women end up murdered by spouses because they won't leave abusers.
If the woman had communicated more clearly, it would've helped the situation. Remember also that this footage is cut and stuff may have been cut out. But really, I was frustrated just hearing her.
"I just know." is not enough to go out and arrest someone for ... uh... maybe future murder? This is right up there with some kids' mom saying, "Because I said so."
@@kberrie38 is "he told me" good enough for u??
The cop straight out the gate acting like an asshole. They barely give these guys any training with assault rifles and zero training with compassion understanding, listening. Basic shit you learn in kindergarten
Nope, he had a woman in there telling him someone else committed the crime that another guy had just been sentenced to life for, 3 months earlier. She waited until then to come forward. He was rightfully shocked to hear it.
They're all the same, just this one is in a pig suit 😅
I feel this way about doctors. Some of the coldest assholes you’ll ever meet.
@@emilinebelle7811 Yass!! The most inhumane, particularly of the male variety. The mind boggles why a woman would ever trust and take advice from a male doctor, or any male for that matter? Lol!
Cuz if they actually diagnose something they would have to actually treat something
If you do that type of thing you can't possibly love your children
Absolutely fantastic editing detail to add the body cam visuals while the daughter was on the stand explaining the layout *chefs kiss*

The cops response at the beginning reminds me of my experience trying to get the same quality medical care as my husband.
Thanks for posting this today!
This channel has been my go-to background video for studying
Stay single, stay sane
Thanks, nicely paced vid. Great narration. Lots try this but fail miserably. Well done. Love the channel
It's cases like this that immediately remind me to always get a lawyer. Guilty or not.
Glad to see a video from @STAYAWAKE! Thank you sir(s)
This happened when I was in high school about a half mile down the road from our house. I had completely forgotten about this story until now! I had to stop what I was doing and rewind when I heard “Crestview”. Also, Aztecas had the best wings in town back then!
YES! Same! this is astounding for crestview.
Aztecas here are Mexican food.
I'm about 45 mins north of Crestview and have been there so many times! I know stuff like this happens everywhere but it still feels weird when you hear of them being so close to home or in places you know well.
Now I want wings.
Wow really good job on the vid! You kept my attention and did a really good job of how you covered this case and all its details! Definitely subscribing! 👏
When I seen you uploaded while I was at work, I became the happiest person 😂, keep uploading plzzzz
keep up with the consistantly well made uploads we appreciate it 🙏🏾
Perfect video to watch/ listen to whilst I make dinner. Thanks Stayawake!
What’s for dinner?
Was worried I would have to wait because UA-cam doesn’t have great detection protocols and flags innocent and hardworking content creators. Cheers good sir and thanks for the quality upload
How traumatic to find your mom like that… I hope that poor girl heals
I had to subscribe... I love how your videos are short but very very informational & to the point ... Thank you !!!
I’m not even three minutes in, and I am going to assume Crestview is in Florida.
😂😂😂
My mid afternoon nap can wait 28 more minutes
Yay!!! So glad UA-cam let this through! So annoyed with @UA-cam going after true crime channels!! 🤬 Always love when you upload! 🎉
What is that all about when they don't flag Ukraine war videos or isreal videos.
It’s always the female detectives who are so good at clearing up cold cases.
Women are the best investigators, i found this out with 3 of my ex girlfriends
@@Urconnect😂😂😂😂😅
That’s because it’s always a D*** measuring contest with men. Women ruthlessly want the truth. No matter what it is lol.
Cause they start most problems:
Women: let’s vote on no bail for criminals
Also women: why are criminals walking the street and punching us in the face?
Also women: don’t you dare touch the deranged lunatic who might punch me in the face, I’ll have you sent to jail!
This is literally New York City.
Statistically incorrect.
Yes! A new upload 😂. I love ❤️ your videos.
Brilliant editing. Well done. 🙌
I grew up in Crestview and was in the same class as Clifton Drake (the prosecutor). He was always very kind. We weren't super close or anything, but it's still wild seeing him on here!
I was in living in Crestview between 2003-2008 and attended grade school with a couple of Cadenhead’s!
@@socialstic I graduated in 2003. I knew several Cadenheads!
This channel is amazing. The pacing is very well done.
The king hath returned
My question is, why wouldn't Russell sing on his friends, I mean, he was facing life. Why didn't he make a plea deal. Lot of unanswered questions.
He probably had no info because he wasn't involved
I don't think he did it, not enough evidence and no motive.
If it was touch DNA, I bet the investors wish they hadn't pushed about him saying he hasn't been in the house for 2 years.
His lie saying he saw her years ago screwed him so hard. Probably a decent chance of him being not guilty if he wasn't dishonest in that call
@@chuckjones7218yes he was. 110%

Poor Melissa, and her Daughter! She was So Traumatized!🥀🥀🥀🙏🙏🙏💔💔💔🕊️🕊️🕊️
Stayawake….only for this channel 😁. 01:35am Perth Western Australia ☺️
My husband told me how he would kill me in details. I regret that we in Russia didn’t have American police. I survived after beating, he broke my nose, but I behaved like everything is ok.
I'm so sorry this happened to you.
Nobody deserves to be treated that way.
I hope you have been able to move on with your life.
Hugs and best wishes from Lynda in Australia 🦘🦘🦘🌷🌷🌷
@ thank you, Dear
Gorgeously done once again!
whoever killed her had the key to the house and more than likely caught her sleeping when she was stabbed. also a knife and not a gun tends to point towards the murder being very very personal. a hitman is impersonal and would more than likely use a gun. also there was no forced entry, the person felt comfortable and when he leaves he locks the door.
10000%
Or the killer entered the same way her daughters boyfriend did with a credit card. Or through the back door if it was left open.
I don't agree that knives are supposed to be personal. An army trained killer will use a knife because its silent.
@CT2507 exactly, an army trained killer. I get where you're coming from and would not dismiss your thought process. Everything goes when it comes to murder but in every murder case, there is context. Who had the motive? Who had the means? Was this random? Was she targeted? What does the scene say? How many crimes have been committed of the same nature within that community? Why leave the door closed when leaving? How did the person know that it was only going to be her in there? Did he know she was sin there, or was this a failed burglary attempt? If it was, why did he close the door? Nothing was taken? Someone who uses a credit card to open a door is less likely to be military trained. You want to be swift and go for the kill. As opposed to struggling with opening the door. Can you open a door with a credit card? Have you tried? I have. Not as easy as they make it seem. Typically, this all comes down to statistics in order to get into the mind of the killer. Or comspirators. According to criminal psychology, typically, a knife or strangulation is more "passionate driven," hence why it leans towards the personal. But yes, a gun can be used as well. A credit card can be used as well. A person with a military background can be in the mix.
RIP Mellisa. Sad for her dear innocent daughter, she must be forever traumatized. 😢
The wife is trying not to get killed and why should she also have to deal with that investigator’s bully tactics? His dismissiveness is the last thing that should be applied to a victim of DV. Doesn’t matter what his problem is he was in the wrong and he shouldn’t act like that toward her. The last thing she needs is to be dismissed and treated like a liar. She’s probably in danger for her life whether or not she’s staying doesn’t matter.
Violent men NEVER change. 😢
unilateral male on female DV is only 7 % of cases. So maybe it is your prejudice against men that doesn't change. Anyway, you're right that all victims should be listened to
If you have the percentages please give the rest of the 93 percent and enlighten us. Domestic violence affects a large number of people, men and woman, adults and minors
@@llamamama2910 most DV is two people, a woman and man beating each other. the highest rate, but not most cases is lesbians. women beat men more in unilateral cases, but that's still not the biggest group of case - which is bilateral - 2 people hitting each other. We know about their motivations, and we know from longitudinal studies that it is often people who were always violent, meeting and dating/marrying each other
SCREAM it LOUDER as they don’t change as they have no STRESS CONTROL!!
Love new uploads, exceptional 👏
I'm here for it...!!!! HELLO EVERYONE!!! 👋👋👋
Excellent presentation!! Had me guessing the whole time..
i think this is the first video on the channel where i’m not convinced that “the killer” is guilty
there was absolutely reasonable doubt here if i’m honest
It's actually scary how he could have been convicted on that evidence. I guess it's easy to see why we hear of so many innocent people being freed after years of incarceration.
@@randychase305it's because people are dumb and have been trained by TV shows that once you hear the word DNA that means you found the killer
@@randychase305 strong DNA Evidence, previou threats to her, caught sneaking at her house, and her fear of him, him lying about being at her house few days earlier, his comment about the rumour of you do my wife I do yours. Seems strong actual and circumstantial evidence.

Wow. That was chilling! Great job on this video.
My thoughts and prayers for the victims families, and I hope and pray LE are able to gather more evidence, enough to put those dangerous and deceitful men behind bars where they belong, right next to "poor" ole Russell.
Can’t get enough of your videos. 😆💯👌
This channel is a legimate continuation of JCS. Well done.
7:47 I'm surprised they were able to get surveillance footage from 13 years ago.
Could've been floating around in evidence for years.
Hey you got to upload it earlier that’s fantastic!!
Evil people are among us! Be mindful of this!
The evidence against Russell seems pretty circumstantial, honestly.
Yea, it does. But notice how when the guilty verdict is read out loud, there isn't a single emotional response on his face. As if he was expecting it. I found that very odd, unless he is guilty or has guilty knowledge and is covering for someone.
DNA
Perfect timing. Bout to start this work day nicely
fire
The ending sucks! Cop was dismissive as all hell!! He should NOT have even been in the room. Police needed to follow up! Oh Gosh.....
Lol wut? They did. They charged the guy with crimes.
It's a tactic. He needed to test her a little in case she was a liar. Or you think women are incapable of lying?
Strange that Russell didn't try to get a deal by flipping on Brian. Also strange that the prosecution apparently didn't go down that path either.
More chance Russ was actually innocent, considering he didn't. Maybe he genuinely didn't know. Weak case against him
Worth the wait. You rule, StayAwake! 🤘🏼
Hearing this prosecutor announce in that dramatic slow voice that the likelihood of the DNA being from someone else was “ONE in THIRTY. NINE. MILLION” made me want to punch a wall.
1/39 million is piss poor for a DNA sample in 2015. Modern DNA samples are exclusive to within quadrillions to 1. 1/39 million would mean there are 10 other people in the United States who could’ve contributed that exact sample, and hundreds more around the world. Given this man’s own family members also live in the same town, that fact alone seems like reasonable doubt.
Moral of the story: don’t listen to prosecutors who selectively emphasize dna statistics. They’re probably full of it.
Most people on juries aren't the smartest and prosecutors know that. A better lawyer would have stressed these facts, idk how he got convicted with just weak DNA and absolutely no motive
I don't know why he lied about not being there?
