#TrueCrime #KendallRae #NiquiMcCown
Niqui McCown was a 28-year-old mother, living in Richmond, Indiana, with her 9-year-old daughter, Payton, and her fiance, Bobby Webster. In July of 2001, they were 3 weeks away from their wedding, and Niqui was said to have been very excited. But on the 22nd of that month, she vanished. After going to church that morning, she took some clothes to the laundromat, and rather than wait around for them to be ready, she went to her mother’s house, who lived not far away. When she got there, she explained that she was being harassed by 2 men, and so her mom advised her to get her clothes and come back over. But after Niqui left, she was never seen again. Suspicion fell on her fiance for a while, and it also fell on Payton’s father. But the true main suspect was her coworker, Tommy Swint. During the course of the investigation, it was discovered that Tommy was responsible for the murder of another woman back in 1991, but before any arrests could be made, Tommy took his life. Many believe he also took the answers to what happened to Niqui with him.

Can you please cover the murder of my little sister Samantha Roberts? She was murdered by a man named Paul Carter in a small town called Nekoosa Wisconsin. Her case didn’t get much attention at all even though she was a disabled , non verbal 20 year old with cerebral palsy
I’m so sorry for what happened. I’m hoping Kendall reads this so she can cover the case, your sister deserves to have her story told
I'm so sorry for your loss :( x
liking your comment for visibility. Please also add your case request to her case form at the bottom of the video description!
thank goodness that monster got life in prison👏🏽👏🏽
I hope you and your family are able to heal
Hi Kendall! I am not sure if you ever read your UA-cam comments but I am Niqui’s daughter. Thank you so much for covering my mom’s story, after 22 years it’s easy for people to forget about her. My family and I continue to search for answers for my mother and her whereabouts (even if it is just her remains)
Thank you everyone for your continued prayers and support I really appreciate it! ♥️
Sending love from Poland. ❤
I hope you'll find all the answers you need.
So sorry for your loss hun. God bless you and your family 🙏🏾
Sorry for your loss
Your mother, Niqui, sounds like she was an incredible person. I'm incredibly sorry for your loss. Sending love and prayers that you find the answers you need to find peace ❤🙏
Sending love to you! 🙏🏼. ❤
He was dishonorably discharged from the military. He should never have been in any sort of law enforcement.
😮😮 en god ide at de er, z zgtmn5ntmt mm
Exactly!
Why not? They hire and fire non military soldiers all the time.
@@user-ih8oj3uo4kBeing dishonorably discharged is serious. You lose your right to bear a firearm that alone should disqualify you from becoming a police officer.
@@user-ih8oj3uo4ksee comment below. It’s pretty bad to be DIS-honorably discharged.
22 years and Darlene has not spoken to the family? TWENTY TWO YEARS?
Oh she knows.
Right! She definitely was the one that set her up. I can’t believe they didn’t question her more
SERIOUSLY
someone said something about seeing a man and a woman… could’ve been her helping that man hide her body
This is my cousin, thank you for covering her story so well, it’s so appreciated. We hold a memorial every year, used to be at the laundry mat in Centerville now we hold it at the park in Richmond bc so many people still continue to show up 🥹 We will keep her memory alive forever 🩷
So sorry for your loss and not knowing what happened 😢💔
So sorry for your loss, sending love to you and your family
❤❤So very sorry for your loss!! Sending love and healing to you and your family!!
Praying for a miracle & God gives you all answers !!!! I’m so sorry yet so amazed with the bravery & courage you carry!!
I never comment on yt. But I want you to know people aren't just watching this for entertainment, we DO care about the people and victims involved in this case. Sending love and light ✨️❤️
Am I stupid for thinking that if someone is dishonourably discharged, they shouldn’t be allowed to work for the police/ in a prison?
Also, apparently that also doesn't' show up in background checks done before buying a gun at least in the state I live in, so that is just another thing they shouldn't be able to do but are able.
My honorable discharge doesn’t show up either. Only if you’d been convicted of a crime will anything show up. It’s well within the realm of possibilities that you can be dishonorably discharged without having done something that’s just horrible. So there’s that.
@@katiegarrison9414 wldnt you need to show a DD214 for that to even come up? It seems easy enough to just not mention it.
Not at all…I feel the same.
It depends on what the discharge is for…
Should it be desertion or being “AWOL”… some employers may forgive that depending on how long ago it was & what their guidelines are during the hiring process..
Most dishonorable discharges are “felony” grade reasons (murder, fraud, treason, SA) & most employers won’t hire you if it’s seen during your background check (a thorough background check should definitely see this).
In law enforcement, a lot of trash ppl are hired in spite of & stuff like this happens.. it repulsive & the agencies should also be held responsible IMO…
wow it enraged me to hear he took his own life right before being arrested. what a cowardly POS
The fact that he was able to become a police officer is SCARY 😟
but not at all surprising unfortunately
seems like he would have enjoyed the power trip of being a cop
Say what???
Wicked supremacy crafty counsel. He thinks he got away he'll meet his maker again. And he'll fix him.
@tarsha why?
The car being found in Steven’s apartment complex is just too convenient, it just sounds like he was set up especially knowing that area had already been searched.
Agreed. And that does make it seem, in my opinion, more likely that it was Tommy who did it. I realize the identity of someone's ex is hardly classified info, but it makes it less likely that a random person attacked her and/or stole the car. Since Tommy was her co-worker, it's very likely he knew about her ex husband.
Or Darlene told him. Sad all around. @@ZeldaQueen64
That is my thinking too.
to be never found…not even your body….this is so eerie to me. i feel horrible for her!
Dude fr. If the dude was finna unalive himself he could have just left a note. Even If he didn't wanna tell them. He could have told them where her body was.
It's obvious she was murdered by the guy who killed himself especially since he even attempted SA on her.
Ikr
😮
Ngl , I fistly thought it was going to be the fiance...but nothing can top Tommy's disgusting actions before and after Niqui's disappearance . I'm 99% sure that not only he's a serial killer , but him "unaliving" himself was the coward way to escape accountabilities of Tina's murder as well as being his confession of Niqui's alleged murder. Call me naïve , but I now think the fiance "suspicious " actions after her death were only circumstantial . The reasons he gave for those pretty much make sense and didn't sound made up imo. Everybody is different, everybody deal with grief differently. I hope one day Niqui’s family will have a sense of closure by finding her whereabouts or something .
It was probably him.
Please never brush it off when someone tells you they feel/felt h*rassed by someone. It might happen again, but they might not tell you about it this time oder downplay it as well, because of your reaction.
You might not feel the same way, but as soon as someone feels uncomfortable in a situation take it seriously.
A professor at my university was kind of fixated on me. I always dreaded his courses, because I felt so uncomfortable around him. He would turn around on stairs when I passed him and so on. I told my family about him...well, they reacted like as if I should feel flattered and asked me, if he's at least good looking.
He once became angry and threw his stuff on the table like a child having a tantrum when I decided to not sit next to him.
At that time I struggled with dissociation and as soon, as the lesson was over, my mind started to shut down.
At home I finally broke down. I was left alone with it, because my family wasn't there for me and my friends didn't know how to help me.
So yeah, never brush it off.
I'm so sorry you went through that. No matter the reaction, it's brave that you shared that experience with others.
I don't understand how being vain is a 'sign' of her fiancée being guilty of murder. Like, if he was vain before, he's not going to stop being vain now. If I wasn't guilty of murder, I would definitely be worried about how I look, since the public is always judging.
Not only that, people have different ways of coping. When I m extremely sad/stressed I start cleaning the house as a distraction. Probably he was just trying to cope
Virgo, right?
yes, exactly! plus him being a Black man, just Black people in general .. we have to dress and look "proper" to be taken seriously and seem "more trustworthy". at least that was my first thought lol since he mentioned the cops wouldn't help bc he's Black. he knows what he's talking about and what he's doing.
@@mythribg3349yes my house hasnt been this clean since Ive started writing my masters thesis
@@EzraHawk THIS
I knew Bobbie. Unfortunately he has passed. He was trying to get the money to try and help find her. This absolutely destroyed him. He loved her so much. The police definitely focused only on him.
I’ve revisited this case from time to time since I first heard about it several years ago. I was not aware that Bobby passed! So sorry to learn of his passing.
He wanted money to try what? You didn't finish your thought. You wrote that Bobby had a desire to help find her, but you didn't write what he was trying to do.
@@mikegarippo7815do you think it’s free to search for a missing person?? you have to have money to put towards search efforts, equipment etc.
@@mikegarippo7815duh... money to find her..resources are not free 🙄🤦🏽♀️
@@mikegarippo7815extensive search efforts COST MONEY
I am glad to hear that Bobby stayed close with Payton..🥹
A guy has a dishonourable discharge, a fucked up view of women, an attempted SA on the missing woman AND a previous murder - and kills himself before he can be brought to justice.
He's responsible for the disappearance, no doubt.
Hey Kendall and everyone! As a black woman, Thank you! I feel your love. I know that you care about all humans, as do I. Sadly, I grew up feeling less special in my community.I feel encouraged knowing that they are humans in this world that will genuinely care if a person that looks like me goes missing. It’s a feeling of relief and I’m grateful.
This 100% I am a Caucasian female and I have a Mexican mixed daughter and two Caucasian daughters. I know for a fact that if my Mexican daughter were to go missing, be S/A’d, or god forbid be murdered she would NOT get the same attention and help from the police or the media. That in itself makes me disgusted!!! I can’t wrap my mind around how it is 2024 and if you’re not Caucasian you do not get the same help and coverage. It makes me so heart broken but I try so hard to be a voice for any one and everyone, regardless. And I teach my kids the difference and to help love and respect others. Just know that many others love and support you and I love you! Ps-I’m locked outta my yt account so I’m on my husbands and his name shows up. I just felt the need to clarify.😅
@@nickpayne7072 your not Caucasian educate yourself on what that world means and this comment is such bs and I feel sorry for your white daughters because it's cler you treat them as they are less. Your comment makes me feel disgusted.
@@nickpayne7072your not Caucasian educate yourself on what that word really means second I feel bad for your white daughters because it's clear you treat them horribly hopefully the other parent has more brain and gets full custody
You are absolutely gorgeous! I am sorry that anyone ever made you feel less than. I will never understand how people can be so ignorant.
@@user-zy5us1mh2nreading is fundamental!! go back to school before posting your opinion on anything!!
Not to take up for Bobby but my grandmother used to say when so many things are out of your control you tend to hyper-focus on the things you can control.
Another reason Bobby might not have wanted to file a missing person’s report as he would have been a prime suspect and perhaps not treated well by the police as they investigated/interviewed him.
Right that was my thought , he is the bf and he’s black . I wouldn’t be the first to call the police either but him telling her family was his way of trying to be caring
Exactly 💯
And that’s exactly what happened until other things came out
@@NotReallyAya.bobby is sus stop giving him the benefit of the doubt just bc he's black
@@user-gn4gs6cz6q how about you suck my dick because I’m black. Y’all white folks really dick ride Black people. Like I see why y’all ancestors couldn’t leave us in Africa. How else would y’all go about your day without thinking about Black people.
I never wanna make someone feel shamed for how they handled something as a parent… I just really wanna stress TAKE THINGS YOUR KIDS SAY SERIOUSLY!!! Men or women were harassing my kids? Hell no we gonna go down there and imma stay with and protect my kids.
soo true. i was sexually harassed at school. a grown man pulled out his penis and rubbed it on my knee. i panicked and cried the whole way home. i couldnt really speak much when my aunt asked why im crying. im trying to tell her that a guy undressed and she laughed at my face. telling me that i have male cousins who are half naked all the time and if i should be crying all those times as well 💔
@@chika_333I'm so sorry you went through this 😔
@@chika_333Omigosh, what a terrible thing to happen, but worse, what a horrible reaction from your aunt!! I hope you’ve since found peace and safety. 🙏
EXACTLY!!! I’m glad someone said this. Just something they unfortunately have to live with now.
@@chika_333 that’s disgusting and I’m so sorry. I’ve had similar experiences. My mom has asked what I was wearing or who I was with when I was sexually assaulted multiple times. My ex husband is telling me rn that because I was drunk and at a male friends house that it was my consequence to get sexually assaulted there. So I get it too. I hope you’re healing
i live in dayton - i drive by this laundromat all the time & i see the pictures of her posted outside. i never knew her story until now. thank you so much for spreading awareness Kendall. next time i drive past i will have so much love & compassion in my heart for her & her family.
Kendall, I just want to thank you. I've been going through a lot of depression and was suicidal for a while but your podcasts have helped me realize there's a lot to live for.
Thank you so much. ❤
Praise God! You are important to God and He loves you soooo much.
I’m sorry you have been going through that. Sending hugs 🤗 You are strong and you are loved ❤
Keep going 🔥 you are worthy no matter what. Jesus loves you more than you can imagine!
Sending strength and prayers from Scotland, you got this 👍 ❤👍
we’re very glad you’re still here
I hate listening to cases that end like this and I used to avoid listening to them entirely. But while the despair of not having answers or justice is heavy, it's important to tell their stories. The world needs to know what we lost. Thank you for telling her story, even if we may never get a resolution.
if my daughter was being harassed at a laundromat, i would have went back with her to ger her laundry. how do u let her go back alone?
Exactly. I would've never let my baby go alone. If any other friends or relatives weren't available, I would've asked for a police escort, too. It's too bad she didn't call Bobby.
THANK YOU!!
It’s easy to pass judgment and say what you would and wouldn’t do. Richmond is a small a very small town and the laundromat was literally right down the street from my aunts house like you could step in the middle of the street and see the laundromat, my grandmother offered to go help and my mother declined. My grandmother also died with regret knowing that she couldn’t have went with my mother.
It’s okay to have opinions but please be kind and mindful that this is actually someone’s life and not just your entertainment for the week.
God bless you all!
Yeah the mom really confused me here.
@@payt0715Oh bless, I’m so very sorry for your loss and thank you for the reminder that these are REAL lives.
I love how I’ve not come across a single negative comment in the sections of Kendall’s videos, ever. A real testament to Kendall and the people who watch her; we show respect and just want to be part of a community that can try to be of some help. Lots of love to you all!
I honestly think the mom lectures about being nice that she gives before the videos really works.
Kendall is an angel ❤
Tbf the nasty commenters get banned.
@@mikesanders8621 rightfully so imo, since those are real stories ...meaning victims' families members/friends can read those comments (except super old cases I guess) .
@chay2033 yeah i agree with you 100%
Darlene definitely knows more than she’s told ppl. I believe Tommy had her lure Niqui to their house.
If he was arrested for the 1st murder when it happened, then Niqui would still be here today. An incredibly sad case :(
A U.S citizen traveled to my country and murdered 3 young women (his ex-girlfriend and two of her friends).
U.S.A is refusing extradition to bring him to justice for taking the lives of these beautiful young women.
Kendall, please get the word out there. Let’s try to apply some pressure. U.S.A is refusing to cooperate with our local authorities.
Nikendra Mccoy, Dione Solórzano and María Antonia Cruz died by the hands of Gilbert Santiago Reyes and he fled the country before they even had a chance to interrogate him.
I just don’t understand why the USA doesn’t do anything ? What is their interest in keeping this dangerous guy protected ?
I hope something will be done soon
what country?
@@rachelrabbI looked it up, it happened in Honduras
Edit: also, to the person who made the original comment, Kendall has a case request form in the description of all of her videos so you should go fill that out.
Update (03/29/2023):
Gilbert Santiago Reyes Bermudez has been captured by Interpol, while he was on vacations.
Thanks for covering this case. 💗 Side note - Graves’ disease can actually be fatal when not treated. You can go into a thyroid storm which is usually fatal if not treated immediately.
Yes!! I have hypothyroidism untreated it can be fatal
i had graves and it literally made me so sick for years, even with treatment. had to get my thyroid removed to recover
Thank you for adding this, treated Graves may not be fatal, but it absolutely is when not properly controlled. And Graves disease attacks more than just the thyroid. If it was only a thyroid disease, it would be called just that, thyroid disease, but it's not, it's an autoimmune disease that mainly attacks thyroid but can lead to so many other issues. 😅 Rare diseases have such misinformation... which is not Kendalls fault imo, is just due to lack of and misinformation.
Kendall, thank you so much for covering Niqui’s case. I am from Richmond and knew both Niqui and Bobby. She always loved him. When I was dating his best friend she’d always ask me about Bobby and he would ask me about her. I was so happy when they got back together. She was a beautiful person inside and out. She loved Payton so much. I hope her family gets closure one day. Again, thank you so much for doing this. You have a huge following and I’m hopeful this could help the family get those answers they so deserve.
No parent should have to pass away without knowing what happened to their child. No child should have to lose a parent that young. Heartbreaking 💔
The car being found in Steve's parking lot sounds like someone trying to set him up.
her fiancé is not suspect to me at all, that's exactly how I behave is stressful situation, I get done what needs to be done, any paperwork, any errands, anything that needs to be taken care off, thing like yeah washing car, making sure not to loose deposits on wedding, cause when person comes back you want everything to be done for them, even the looking good doesn't bother me, you just function as you do usually for the person
If she hadn’t told her mom about those guys I would’ve suspected the fiancé
Men are especially taught to compartmentalize their emotions and get stuff done during intense situations. Society does not allow for men to have breakdowns of emotion. They are raised to carry on and swallow any difficult feelings.
Been watching you since I was 21, single, and going out everyday. Now I’m a mom of two, married, and I still watch you just as much. You’re a staple in my life for content regarding true crime. I love your videos. You got pregnant the same time I was with my first. It was like we were going through it together. Please know so many people love you and look forward to your videos. ❤
Also, your voice is SO CALMING GIRL!
That's so sad. Sorry that happened to you... You should have stayed single and free so you could enjoy life without any liabilities.

Why did the mom tell her to go back & get her laundry after she saw how frantic her daughter was. I would’ve told my daughter stay here I’ll go get it
Yes if she was so distraught that she left why encourage her to go back makes no sense for me but who knows details get lost, maybe she initiated this action of going back her mom just agreed...
THATS WHAT I WAS SAYING THANK YOU
S0 true should not her alone go back to the laundry alone some one should have gone with her
This story always has made me sad because I feel she didn’t get to clear her name because people speculated she had an affair with that murderer
@marialaguana4828 - I am sorry you were afraid and felt alone....but good for you to protect yourself. I wish more women listened to their gut and didn't talk themselves out of being protective of themselves!!
Thank you for covering missing persons. My mom has been missing for over 50 years and no one (but our family) cares.
I’m so sorry😢
SOME of those hippies went off the grid, for GOOD.
I grew up in this town and it was a huge thing when she went missing. There are still signs up for her throughout town
Yesss I'm so glad you're covering this case, it's so creepy and the coward took the easy way out
Can't believe the mum was like, "oh you were harassed so badly you left the laundromat? We'll go back by yourself"
Her daughter was obviously distressed.
I really hope Peyton can lay her mother to rest some day and take her daughter to visit her grave often. So unfair.
15:05 as someone with the same autoimmune disease just on the opposite end of the hyper-hypo spectrum (both types are considered the same disease bc you can swing between the two) the meds are a once daily thing. She left them bc if she already had her dose, she didn't need it again until 24 hours later, which is absolutely a sign she was coming back. The police still wouldn't have listened to this as reasoning tho bc they never really do and its so sad
Definitely think that all evidence and information points to Tommy as responsible. He’s a coward and deserved to face justice instead of taking the easy way out.
I have been a Police Officer in Upstate NY since 1993 and have never told a potential missing persons family to "wait 24 hours", the sooner you get out the information on the NYS portal system, the better...
Thank you for covering Niqui’s case. Payton & my sister are best friends, and Payton has always been like a little sister to me. This family has NEVER stopped looking for Niqui or trying to get her story out there. I’m hopeful we will have more answers someday.
That suicide is so unfair, what a coward and the worst scum. He definitely killed her, not wanting to get he’s day in court for that other murder is heartbreaking, for all the family who’s missing loved ones are unaccounted for and those who’s murders are not solved, it is such harrowing and never ending pain.
I hate that man, I’m sorry to Niqui and her family 😔, it’s over 20 years since her disappearance, I’m sorry to say it but it’s probably a lifeless body that her family might find, but I believe even that can give them closure. I hope there’s a chance that somebody stumbles upon something that leads to answers.
Why would he do it?
@@emilyashley4820…Did you watch the video?
I remember this story and it never sat well with me that she went back to the laundrymat:(
Someone should’ve went back with her or at least offered.
Words cannot describe the hatred I feel for Tommy. I really wasn't expecting that turn.
He was a coward.
Rest in peace Tina, you deserved better❤️. So much better. She didn't deserve to be found naked in a pile of trash.
Cases like these drive me absoutley insane, people can't just vanish into thin air! 😢
She looked like she could’ve been a member of TLC. Beautiful!
Omg! Yes agreed, she has that TLC look (well, style) to her 😊
Totally agree
This happened in my town ! I remember it like yesterday ! Shook this town to the core ! Her memory is kept alive by family & friends & so many in the town. This is so sad, I pray all the time for justice & for her to be found ! 🙏 😢 Thank you so much Kendall for doing her story & keeping her name alive !
That sleeping kitty gets me every time. ❤️ Praying for Niqui’s family.
I live in the city she disappeared from... Richmond
I never knew her but I think about her all the time.
Very sad
Why didn't anyone go back to the laundry mat with her after the incident with the men
This case always made me so mad, the original investigation was so slow to start and then once they did they got tunnel vision on her fiancé.
They wasted so much time 😪
Thank you for making a donation to PIs for the missing. The week between when my cousin went missing, and when her body was found, was unbearable. We felt like the police weren't working with us, but against us. And being on the phone with my Mom, while she walked thru wooded areas with volunteers, looking for her body, was something I can't even explain. The family of those who are missing need this help.
Covered unsolved cases is literally SO important. Always prefer these to solved cases. Because these victims still need justice & their stories to gain awareness!
the fact this is from my home town has me tripping out. i have never heard of this case but I actually worked with Steven. He was always kind to me. I hope this video brings some justice to her family and loved ones 🩷
How unbelievably arrogant of Tommy to have murdered someone and still had the audacity to join the police force!! Unreal. But I'm also damn glad that he did as that move seemed to be his undoing.
I hope Niqui's daughter someday gets to lay Niqui to rest properly. It is heartbreaking that so many members of her family never got that closure. I can't imagine living with that void of not knowing what happened.
Thats the problem with those types they like positions of power to continue their abuse.
What a total coward he was. I hope these families found out all the truth.
Thanks for giving victims a voice. A fan from Australia 🇦🇺
Please cover the story of 22 year old Bianca Haas, she was found DECOMPOSING in the apartment on July of 2022 that she shared with her boyfriend… the tenants complained about a rotting scent for months and the landlord did not bother to check at all. He would have people over while he put her in a different room. Her body was found because one of the tenants went to find out where the smell was coming from. This happened in Waukegan, Illinois. Nothing has been updated.. he hasn’t been charged 😕 what makes this more suspicious is that the landlord and Biancas boyfriend knew each other..
😮
It seems like the guys at the laundromat were absolutely the source of whatever happened. She came home upset about these guys, went back to where they were and then never came home. Just because they allowed her take her basket outside doesn't mean they didn't follow her. Footage in the 90's and cops caring about a poc being missing are both shotty at best.
What about tommy who killed himself ?
@@alyjen no, I watched the whole video.
Break the silence. Break the cycle.
I hate it when police assume to know someone's loved one more than they do.
Yes!! If they are telling them that the person’s disappearance is out of character, why not just take it at face value? The sooner you start looking for someone, the better the chances.
Happened in my hometown... crazy she's never been found
Thank you for covering Niqui’s case. The first time I heard it was on Black Girl Gone podcast.
I think about this case often....so sad
Kendall you are so incredible helping so many with donations!
UGHHH this made me so angry
Niqui and Brianna Maitland’s disappearances have been widely underreported and it’s so sad. The part with Brianna’s dad genuinely made me tear up. No one person deserves less coverage than another. I’ve only ever seen videos on either of them from one other UA-camr which is disappointing. I hope both families find the answers they deserve
I'm so happy for Nikki's case is getting out there. She's been missing and deserves to get back home
Tommy looks crazy and hot headed as hell…
Poor girl - I love the nonprofit PI that helps families find their missing loved ones.
Please cover the missing persons case of Shanika Brewer, my sister. Detroit Police is saying No body No crime and that’s disgusting considering she’s been missing since 4/7/2023 and was last seen with her ex boyfriend with prior run ins with police.
I pray for her family, I hope they get the answers they are looking for ❤😢
Wow thank you for sharing this case and Briana’s case . Hearing her dad and what he did in her honor is simply true love for his daughter and fellow humans that share the same pain as his. It’s important to know about such organizations, so thank you for sharing !!!! And for donating . I want to donate soon . God bless you and everyone else you share that helps . ❤
Thank you for posting! I’m going through a rough time, and I feel so helpless.
Sending you strength - YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Hang in there. Things WILL get better
Please hang in there because tomorrow will be better, I promise. Maybe call a friend or family member with whom you’re close. Praying for you. 🙏
God bless you. you’re gonna make it through what you’re going through and see so much beauty in life ❤
Omgosh, your sound quality is amazing! The video before yours was painfully distorted. Thank you! 💕🌸💕
This literally happened in my town. I’m so happy to see coverage on this. Her family deserves closure and answers!
Im halfway in so alot can change but i didnt get red flags from the fact that he was cancelling vendors and trying to get money. The clip you played from the podcast said that searching for someone is expensive. Wouldnt you be trying to get funds anyway you could?
A cold case like this is VERY important,💯Especially U & ALL U do or can revive information in hopes of answers🙏🏻,I remembered as u told the laundromat part😞,TY ever so much Kendall,now to the rest of what I know will be frustrating 😡…..✌🏻💞To u&urs
Oh man this is an old friends aunt I’m so happy to see this being talked about again!!
I’m not done with the video yet & I know it’s a small detail, but I could totally see myself being hesitant to file a police report just in case they weren’t actually missing. I know that seems dumb, but I could see where his mind might go to “I don’t wanna cause any trouble in case she’s actually fine & walks in the door 5 minutes after I file this report”….idk
In that instance even if they’re not missing better safe than sorry. Better to sound the alarm and have them not be missing than have them to missing and never sound the alarm.
@@kikitagueritaWhile I absolutely agree with you, as a person of colour sometimes approaching higher authority can seem kinda pointless (for lack of a better word) , you never know when you’ll be taken seriously or even be assisted. So if someone thought another person went missing but they weren’t it can add to the long list of why the police seem to not care about poc or just use that as an example to justify waiting 72 hrs to report a missing person
@@ambershoba that’s assuming that an entire group won’t take a POC seriously. I can see what you’re saying but at the end of the day at least I know I tried reporting someone as a missing person. I realize there is a stigma with both parties but a few bad seeds don’t account for an entire group. It’s unfortunate that people let stigmas get in the way.
I’ve been following the family of Niqui on Facebook for years. Her beautiful face pops on my timeline almost daily. This is one of those cases that I think about nonstop and hope so so much that she is brought home one day 😢❤ sending so much love to the family and to Niqui herself!!! Thank you for covering this case Kendall🩷
I pray the family will find the answers. I feel for her mom, passing away without knowing who dis this to her daughter.
Thank you for covering this case I have followed this case on different platforms and its sad
The saddness in Bruce's voice has me crying. But so happy he is honoring his daughter's memory and moving forward the best he knows how.
He already knew what they do to people like him in prison. I can’t imagine how he treated inmates.
Always here to watch your videos. I miss Talk Tuesday ❤
I personally love when Kendall cusses and gets so spicy. :)
Girl I was about to watch the bachelor new episode then I saw you uploaded and thought IT CAN WAIT.
I love your new back ground and especially your darling little kitty in his bed. I also love you and love the way you tell your stories, even though so many times they are sad. Thank you so much for bringing these stories to light most of them I’ve never heard of. You’re a good storyteller keep up the good work OK
Bobby seems completely normal. As of the worrying about how he looks, as someone with autism I am worried about how I look and dress no matter the situation. It’s just very normal and behavioral for me. This guy seems totally normal and possibly neurodivergent. I feel terrible for him, that people are openly describing him as odd and suspicious while trying to say due to his skin color people would have done just that anyways. So it’s weird to just do it in the same breathe. The guy seems so normal, just struggling with the situation and his own personal life.
“Opinion is really the lowest form of human knowledge. No accountability, no understanding. The highest form of knowledge is empathy for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another’s world. It requires profound purpose larger than the self kind of understanding.” Plato, The Republic
This opinion doesn't reflect how autistic people feel as a group. Every person is an individual. For me, when my loved one is in trouble, my looks are the last thing I am focused on. Only are my shoes on? Do I have my keys? My opinions, peace.
@@emilyashley4820 idk how you could represent the autism community and idk what to say bc I said what I said.
@@aubreyf4678 I never said that I represented the autistic community. I said that you didn't. You can say what you like. But adding that you are autistic in this context implied, in my opinion, that most autistic people are focused on appearance no matter the situation.
This is my hometown I am so glad you are covering this I can't wait to watch this episode. This family has been looking for answers for so long 😢
I get the car wash thing… When my dad died, I sent a text message that I never sent to him the night before… So I can see why he wanted to keep that promise to her… it’s still suspicious, but there’s two sides I could see
I do too, I know it's not exactly the same, but if I feel like I've not been the best mother that day I often will try to make it up to my daughter by doing things she's asked me to do or things I think she'd like while she's at school or asleep in bed. It helps me forgive myself a little bit.
Also, I can relate to Bobby being concerned about his appearance when it seemed like a complete trivial and unimportant thing to most people. I swear that when I look amazing and at my best, that's usually when I'm at my worst. I have endometriosis and I'm in constant pain. I have PTSD and anxiety too. Whenever I'm Really anxious or my pain is flaring up I feel completely out of control of everything. Over the years I've found that I soothe myself by caring for my skin, applying my makeup very carefully, doing my nails, hair etc. I believe it's because I feel like I'm in complete control over these things so it helps me stay calm. It's awful because I can't count how many times people (ironically Dr's and nurses are the worst for it) have told me if I was as ill as I say I wouldn't look so good. That I wouldn't care about my hair or makeup. It's so upsetting because it's a coping mechanism but our society is so ableist that the average person can't compute that you can be struggling but look great. All of my closest family and friends know this because they've seen it so many times but it traumatises me all over again when I'm called out for it.
I'm not saying this applies to Bobby at all; this just my experience. But I like to play Devil's Advocate because I wish people could try to see why I do what I do without being suspicious.
I'm from Richmond, thank you for covering this case. ❤️
Kendall has such a great voice
I feel for him. Thankyou Kendall for this video.
I lost my daughter from Cancer 2 years ago.
She was only 20 years old.
Bruce my heart goes out to you. You are such a brave man + even though your heart is breaking every second of everyday know that my arms are around you supporting you.
I’m from Australia but love + care + support transcends all time + space.
Please take care of yourself + because of beautiful Kendall you will have so much support.
💕💕💕
Darlene and boyfriend /coworker Tommy probably set her up…Darlene probably was jealous that Tommy wanted her…
I agree. I believe she went to Darlene's apartment and Tommy was there. He SA'd her then killed her and him and Darlene hid the body. She then told Tommy where Nikki's child's father lived and they drove the car there. Such a sad case it made me cry! RIP to this beautiful soul!
