"Don't kill me. I have a kid" this is just so damn heart breaking to know that was his last words...i hope his baby girl never doubts that her daddy loved her. He loved her dearly. It was written all over his face.
I am an older person living in an area with limited bus service and I often give people a ride. People here don't typically hitchhike. The odd one I don't pick up if they don't look 'local' and now I don't feel so bad, but I probably wouldn't pick up someone who is actually hitching as the local kids don't do that, if that makes sense.
Wow, she was so awful in that call. She basically asked him “so hey can you tell me all the details on that murder you committed that you already told me?” Like Jesus any person on earth would be able to tell that she’s got the cops listening
That was my first thought too but you'd think they'd go over what and how she'd ask or say before she called. So partially the blame is in the investigator too
That's interesting though - because he knows she WAS there, at the scene of the murder. So, he automatically knows something is up when she says she doesn't know what happened. I think she was trying to let him know the cops are listening.
Great point. Guy wasn't smart about it either, questioning her about the cops listening in basically. "They wouldn't leave a voicemail about a body" It actually confuses me that they both would behave that way... Actually... Maybe things weren't fully divulged with them. She probably never said anything. Like at all. Nothing not even a comment on the food being good unless he asked. Listening to her she sounds like she's psychologically abused. This honestly was probably his next step in training her to help him murder people. But he fucked up cause he didn't realize who she was deep down. Maybe so.
Don't forget that the girl was also hiding something. at that point her story was that she wasn't even there with them when the kid got shot. so she couldn't just ask something like "what happened there?" because he knows that she was there when he committed murder. neither could she say something like "what exactly happened there? I don't remember/that was too traumatic for me to register" because then the cops would have found out that she with them in the desert. she was in a problematic position.
She says he left a vm then says, I told him I'd have to call him back. How do you talk to a vm. Yeah they really should have prepared her for the call cuz she doesn't seem like the sharpest crayon in the box.
Of course....you dont talk on people....ever. if you have a problem with someone being unmoral, take it on your own hands.....why should a third party get involved, the government, a criminal organisation that works on controlling and manipulating you and enforce unmoral rules by the barrel of a gun, they are the real criminals. That guy murdered an inocent "kid", while the government does it every day
Dumbass and a coward. Bringing witnesses to a murder scene, thinking he knows the rules on the Miranda rights and then also waiting till the victims gun is empty before shooting him. Wanna see him try that against someone with a full loaded gun. Narcissistic, idiotic and most of all pathetic.
Sad to say, hitchhiking can be dangerous. Hunter only deserved a trip in a car or truck. This Nick creature, this thing, this two pounds of meat, needs to be put down like Fluffy.
I love how the detective told Nick he isn't going to read him his rights because he isn't going to ask him any more questions. Takes back the power nick thought he had when he refused to tell them where the gun was buried 🤣.
@@m998hmmwv7 Miranda is a funny thing. It was intended to protect people, but police often capitalize on people's misunderstanding of it to use it against them. Miranda has a lot of ins and outs and "special circumstances," but the gist of it is this: when in police custody (which Nick was not, as explained in the video), the court assumes that anything you say was coerced until your rights have been read to you. The Miranda warning turns that assumption around. After being read your rights, the court automatically assumes three things: 1.) That you understand your rights, 2.) That anything you say from that point onward is voluntary (and therefore, admissible in court), and 3.) (this is the kicker) That you are waiving the rights they've just told you about. After this point, you can exercise your rights, but unless you explicitly invoke them, the court may also assume that your silence is incriminating. This is why there is only ONE correct thing to say to any officer who wants to interview or question you, whether you're in custody or not: *"I'm not answering any questions, and I'd like to speak with a lawyer."* One other important thing to remember is that even if a confession is ruled inadmissible, it doesn't mean that other evidence can't be used in court to secure a conviction. All other evidence legally procured is still viable. Nick obviously didn't realize this, either.
I love that the detective said he wasn't going to read his rights right now. It was a very small gesture but it spoke loudly to this guy, the detective was telling him you are not in control of this situation, I am. Well done
What I don’t understand about that though is in the video, the narrator says you don’t have to read the rights UNTIL he was in custody. But, they did put him custody at the end when the detective said that, so did they then read him his rights immediately after? We never see it so idk. Not that I think it ultimately matters that much, but I just didn’t get that part.
@@Nandoswitharando I may be wrong but I always thought they technically don't have to read your rights until you're being questioned. Either way, I am very sure they read his rights at some point even if it was off camera
That’s a pretty risky move all for a power trip. Had they confessed prior to reading the suspect’s Miranda rights, the potential of the confession not being admissible in court is likely. Cops with overinflated egos lead to dumb mistakes.
I’m in the military, most guys who talk about killing people on their deployments are full of it. The real ones who’ve had to go through that never talk about it. It’s not a badge of honor to take a life in combat. This guy was a murderer. Nothing more.
@@Joru0906 narcissistic behavior, I guess. They revisit the crime scenes knowing police are investigating it, they plant themselves in search parties, they talk to press or call in with tips for police to make themselves feel the center of attention. But this goes for true murderous psychopaths with beyond average intelligence, not this wannabe redneck Robert Hansen
Not only are you ending someone's life completely without reason, but I will never understand how anyone would ruin their own life by killing some random person and being sent to jail. Insane.
seems like the government failed here but i dont know the full story. what i mean is soldiers/killers are always needed and even been admired in the past and to these days like the vikings who even had their beliefs all around death, blood and dying in combat to enter valhalla which we still kinda see to these days with the talibans. so the question is why r people like this not in war zones doing what only they enjoy and can do. like there probably millions of soldiers young men who dont fit the job as they might getting themself shot in fear of ending someones life which naturally born killers dont have so why isnt the government using people like this instead they send young men to die who never hurt a fly and the real killers rot in jail wasting tax money and their potential while the young men who have potential in other things have to do the dirty job
I hitchhiked from Los Angeles to Miami Beach in 1976, it took me 10 days. Met a lot of cool people and never had one problem with anyone who picked me up. It wasn't until years later when I was reading about some serial killers that I realized I was hitchhiking in some of the same areas they were operating in. Kind of freaked me out. Today, I wouldn't hitchhike anywhere or pick up a hitchhiker.
i hear hitchhiking was commonplace from the 50`s till late 70`s basically till serial killers,rapists,etc. kept ruining the whole thing for everyone and safety become a huge concern, nowadays hitchhiking is dead, i`m surprised that Hunter hitchhiked as recent as 2017.
I was always aware of the dangers on both sides of hitchhiking, but before I got my life together and before Uber was everywhere, I had no choice but to hitchhike. I'm genuinely shocked that nothing bad ever happened to me. Beyond grateful for that too
@@stanraye6723 People still hitchhike. It is still more prevalent than most people would think, because we all know it’s so dangerous...but it happens.
The last detective is a genius: "We did talk to Montana, and she told us some of the same stuff that you have said, but some of it is a little different. We talked to Keith and he tol us some stuff too, but some of it is a little different. So that is why we wanted to talk to you. The story they told us has a different kind of an ending. So we wanna talk to you about that and see what the ENDing really is." *chills over 9000*
As soon as he said “they wouldn’t talk about the body in a message” he/she both knew the police was listening. And she started asking questions he knew she already had answers to, he was sure the police was listening.
that was so frustrating! like.. if the police are gonna conduct a wired call at least make sure she doesn't say something stupid like "left me a message"
I like how that chick didn’t show one speck of emotion until they told her she was going to jail. Then the water works came on. Heartless. The whole lot.
@@MarkWhippy at that point in the video I still thought she was just worried about getting dragged into it without having known anything. But you're right, looking back it sounds quite different. I still feel kinda bad for her, even for Keith. Unless that part about him planning to do more killings with Nick was right
@@comment_deleted Nick might have been the only one with a loaded gun at that time, which might explain why they didn't stop him. But they could have at least tried to talk him out of it. Either way I doubt killing Nick would have been a good idea. They should have gone to the police immediately though obviously. I'm not even sure they had malicious intent, probably just scared out of their minds. But normally people can overcome that and make the right decision anyway
This reminds me of my brother. For years would lie about being in the secret service, going on missions, and killing people. This ended with him attempting to murder a woman and he went to prison for around 6 years. Definitely not enough. He is the definition of a sociopath and I fear for everyone around him. He’s moved away and I’ve cut him off completely from what he put my sister and I through when we were younger. I believe he will hurt someone again. He told me directly he stabbed this woman because he was “curious what it felt like.” No normal person does that. It’s just so fucked up. Anyone that can disconnect themselves from other people and not care have the ability to be serial killers imo.
@@Calmly.Chaotic Wait, so you mean he was an adult and YOU were a kid?? And he was telling you stuff like he was curious what it felt like to STAB someone? Holy moly. You are lucky YOU don't need help now, that is some heavy stuff.
@@ChadBoss-qr4hl yeah I was in middle school when he was arrested. It definitely screwed me up more but I’ve done lots of therapy and finally at the age of 23 I’m learning to live a normal life after a shit ton of mental health issues (anxiety, depression, suicide attempts, drinking issues, eating disorder, ptsd, etc.) He was a teenager (like 16) when he made his CIA claims. He also has outstanding charges for impersonating a police officer which doesn’t surprise me in the least. He did a lot of fucked up things. He destroyed our basement wall from throwing knives at it, SAed my older sister and I starting when I was 8, drove without a license, ran from the police, and totalled 5 different cars that were my moms. He lies and steals from anyone he can which has gotten him cut off by our entire family, only my dad occasionally sees him. Thank god he moved across the country so I don’t ever see him.
this reminds me of an old thiefs saying. 3 can keep a secret if 2 of them are dead. In a group crime someone will 99% of the time spill the beans either because they were offered a good deal to testify or because they think they can outsmart the detectives.
@@meowyzz5902 it's a usefull tool when doing business too. In a 3 way deal 2 will often band together against 1 and it's therefor always smart to place yourself in a position where this cannot happend.

Hunter leaving his comfort zone to be able to provide for his little princess shows a great father he would've been to her. You'll always remain her hero, Hunter. RIP 🕊️
Just because someone gets murdered doesn't make them a good person. He was frggin hitchhiking in the middle of nowhere. Stop acting like he was a good father when you really don't know one way or the other.
@@humptydumpty1575 Nobody expects murder victims to wonderful perfect people and nobody says he was. According to those who knew him he was a great guy. We're not talking about a criminal or something. The guys 'crime' is that he hitchhiked... While going to a new area for a new job so he could help support his child. Yes hitchhiking is a dangerous and foolish act but that's the extent of it. Doing so does not make him bad. I think people just like to reach to throw the "bad person" stamp on murder victims when learning about cases like this because it helps lessen the impact of this horrific crime and it means they don't have to feel as bad.
@@alexf9381 i think humpty watched a few more of those like me and under every video they praise the victim like a saint even those whose actions let to their own demise like a guy getting killed for beating another guy, stealing another ones gf, cheating on gf etc and here his actions were the hitchhiking that let him to his demise well in this case the victim doesnt seem to have done anything bad to deserve it he just done something very naive that could have easily been avoided
This guy was clearly obsessed with the idea of being a killer. “Stress relief”.. killing a young father you shared a meal with and chatted to, for no reason other than personal satisfaction. Then planning how to do more. Good thing those hunters found the body and reported it. Good work by the detectives. They definitely saved future lives by their actions as the killer here was happily fantasising about his next targets.
Nick thinking he was clear because they didn’t read him his rights reminded me of when my ex husband came home drunk and hit me, so I called the cops and he told them “I plead the fifth” when they tried to talk to him 😂
The fact that Hunter said, “Don’t kill me; I have a kid,” just shows you how his daughter was the center of his universe and he hated the thought of not being able to continue to protect and take care of his daughter. 💔 That crushed me. Rest in peace Hunter. 💗
@@Joru0906 Some sort of attention seeking (like how some killers love speaking about their... "achievements", they are a narcissistic bunch), he probably felt he was smarter than the rest too.
Man I originally felt bad for Montana thinking she just got caught up in it, but damn the dude was talking about doing it again & that it'd be there turn next. Any sympathy I had for her flew out the window. I'd be scared to live with someone who could just murder an innocent kid in cold blood like that. I don't care how tight we are, if a friend of mine did something that heinous with zero justification & talks about doing it again,, your going to prison. Sorry not sorry.
Exactly. If a friend of mine took me out into the desert and shot a stranger like that, they're clearly NOT my friend. I can understand playing the part in the moment out of fear of being next, but the second I'm out of his sight, I'm snitching. No hesitation.
Right? How some people can just let things pass is insane. If one of my friends admitted to any sort of abuse or physical harm on anyone else then I would be on the phone soon after to 911. Women especially seem susceptible to just going along with douchebags like this. Whether it be a physically abusive roid raging asshole who physically and sexually abuses her to the F'd in the head military guy who just loves violence who then just kills someone. The girlfriends "never see it coming" or "he's not really like that" while literally anyone else with 5 braincells to use can see these guys are a problem after learning about them for 5 minutes.... but for her "yeah, I can't think of anyone else I could possibly love/sleep with"
yeah no they've 100% done this before, probably with homeless or addicts, prostitutes, people not reported or likely to go missing. The two dudes fit the profile perfectly, that text message he mentions indicates they have a pre existing understanding here. That makes it even more clear than the hitchhiker comment.
I will never understand how a woman who knows their boyfriend is violent will still want to stick up for him or be with him. Seems like a death wish to me. You cant trust a violent killer not to kill you when it's convenient or during an argument. Walking on eggshells is not desirm
Funnily enough its the hyper aggressive, narcassistic, and borderline psychopathic traits that attract them the most, so its no surprise they would fall in love with or defend people like that
“I couldn’t see him hurting anyone. He’s only trained on how to kill and has been in bar fights.. He wouldn’t hurt anyone either.. he’s no criminal. He’s just been to jail. “ She’s a scholar for sure.
His dad is insane to think they “don’t have their ducks in a row.” And the new girlfriend is a vile human for being disgusted at the fact they are accusing him of planning it. They should live in shame and scorned for standing by a person like that
@BigBuzzyBumbleBee because they are most definitely vile, evil humams themselves. If they weren't they wouldn't be attracted to someone who just murdered a kid and called it "stress relief." I think people who start dating someone in prison for murder should be looked into! They obviously share the same outlooks.
@@Lyle-xc9pg What's the point of your question? That you can't believe someone would want to stay alive so that their child has their parent in their lives. I have three kids, that is exactly what would go through my mind. So, why do you feel the need to doubt such a sentiment? What's your point?
It is absolutly unacceptable that the actual murderer only served 30 years while the others served 15 and 26. That is absolutly insane and appalling. He should be doing 80. Especially since in his own words he will kill again.
His parole term should have been longer, certainly. But, its only eligible after 30. His comments in the interview and outside of it depict someone who will kill again, and that would make for a very hard parole case. I imagine it will be denied many times, until he has at least served 50.
do some research on parole eligibility. they will be out in 5 and 11 years. and most likely the killer will not be let out after his 30 cuz of what he did.
What disturbs me is that Montana got less time than Keith it seems they were equally involved and that Keith was quicker to be truthful with detectives. Where are the feminists demanding equity.
@@jauume I know, who survives being shot in the head twice?!? It makes me sick that the lady only got 11yrs and then will be up for parole. She could've saved Hunter's life if she had just gone to the police after knowing the plan. She's just as guilty as the other two. Now this poor child has to grow up without a father. They destroyed many lives.
I guess his thinking was to get it on tape, that at that point, AFTER the questioning, he had not been read his rights. So in his mind everything he said could not be used against him. Such a genius.
The worst part is he'd be alive if he hadn't gone. His family had every right to worry. I really pray this is a horrible lesson learned for us all. We can't be trusting of anyone not even someone with a broke down car😔
How in the hell can these people be given these sentences and then serve less than half the time if paroled? And how would Nick even have the chance to be paroled? What our society allows is reprehensible!
That's crazy. How could someone watch that and not report it as soon as possible? Makes no sense to me. I'm sure she was probably afraid of him to some extent but I just can't understand. Great video EWU.
Nick wouldn't do his first kill before witnesses, unless he knew they were on his side (i.e. prepared for what would happen). They were in on it, they knew what would happen, it's just hard to prove. The only reason they're talking at all is to not be charged with murder.
she drove me insane when she talked, her fake crying and behavior right after the detective screams she is a serial liar and shes just as guilty as the guy
Quite disgusting person. She is crying and victimizing herselves while she is actively protecting someone she know is a murderer and want to be in a relationship with.
Though is it really her fault if she did? It was never her intention to be part of the murder. Also you were not there. I mean she could have looked down or kept on looking. But they never charged her with any kind of murder, only not reporting. Also I think personally the innocent project should work with them because intent matters a lot in crime. Even the narrator said Nick made them do things to entrench them in the crime so they felt like they could not go to the police. Also that he was the only one with a gun at the time. You would agree that if someone puts a gun to someones back and walks them into a bank and tells them they need to ask for the money or die... that the person being held at gun point is not in fact robbing the bank. This is why intent matters. Though both of them should have plead the fifth and then plead out immunity. Why you never talk to the police even if you are technically innocent.
@@Harizakdude. She lied to the investigators THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. She knew about a murder and not only didn't say anything, she hid it and told the murderer the police were looking into it
It's the whole "I didn't want to be a part of it" crap for me. If you didn't want to be a party to it then why didn't you at least attempt to help the victim? Unbelievable story! Terrible people
@@paperman9708 dude it said in the video he got a job in nebraska to pay for the kid. the idea to hitchhike was a terrible idea but he def wasn't on a "vacation" as you put it.
Amazing how because someone didn't pull the trigger themselves, they think they can be a witness to a murder, not call the police and think they're not an accomplice. Insaneeee
Yes, it's quite a sickening betrayal to have people around who actually turn out to give your own life such little regard that they would let the worse happen to you and never think to do anything to stop it. How worthless others are to them is disgusting. Not suppose to be how human beings are one bit.

And she got parole after just 5 years. That means she's already free after conspiring to murder people with those other psychopaths. Justice system failed.
@@geigertec5921 Absolutely agree..I'm pretty certain that the other 2 would'nt of ever got involved in something like this without the influence of Vandenberg..however look how skillfully she lied,acted the innocent and feigned ignorance and maneuvered her position..if anyone was being manipulated by Vandenburg it was much more likely be the dull witted jail fodder Rabey..Once Rabey started talking- his version of events was far closer to the established facts and truth than the smoke she kept blowing up everyone's ass.. She ought to of got as long as Rabey minimum..and if anything her lies and deception..(and the fact she was keeping Vandenburg informed and updated of the police investigation..when the interviewing officer clearly asked her not to do it)should of earned her considerably more. She was present at the murder..I believe she probably acted as bait and to put the Victim at ease and was happy to do this knowing full well what Vandenburg had planned for him.. Rabey is a petty criminal..jacking cars and barfights are more his thing he's not the brightest guy and unlike the other two lacks a stable family background or any sort of stability in life.. She had more choices in the situation..and could easily have turned Vandenburg in at any time without any repercussions on herself..unlike Rabey who had nowhere else to go. Vandenburg is a psychopath and a rotten coward he deserves to leave this earth the hard way..but she enabled this murder and made a proactive attempt to cover up for her boyfriend..she deserves a lot longer than the couple of soft years in jail that her pussy pass bought her.
I got chills when they interviewed Nick. That look on his face when he said he saw the post of Facebook when the detectives mentioned they’d found a body, and his tone of voice sounded excited. Even without context of what he was in for, you can just tell there is something sinister and dark about him. Hunter must’ve been terrified.
There's nothing scary about him. He's a bottom-of-the-barrel loser and he knows that. His acts of violence (both real and imagined) are a scream for respect and attention, things that he's been desperately craving for, probably his whole life. And he will die in jail. in complete anonimity, without ever achieving either.
To be honest, I don't know how some people would feel comfortable to go with them. I would never feel comfortable to go for a dinner/night with a stranger, yet going into desert with three strangers for a shooting.
It’s crazy to think about how this is actually the best it’s ever been though. Humanity is fucking dark, but we’re slowly getting better. Even if sometimes it doesn’t seem like it
Don’t hitchhike. Don’t go to strangers dwellings alone, especially outnumbered. Absolutely never go do anything involving deadly weapons at all with strangers. RIP to the victim his last words were heartbreaking. Wish the best to his kid and family.
I'm lucky no one ever did this to me, I've been in more than a few situations with psychos like nick who own guns. I guess they never thought they could kill me.
@Some dude On youtube what about, don’t fly on planes, ride in cars, shovel snow out of your driveway? All can be deadly. I’ve hitchhiked a lot, people aren’t out to kill you. Pick em up when you see them, they’ll be grateful.

Another ex-military criminal huh? When a veteran said to me, "they teach you to do it, but they never teach you to stop," stuff like this was the first thing into my head.
I would bet almost all of my money that everything he bragged about was a crock of shit. All the ex-military criminals, if they were ever even in at all, are usually the ones who get kicked out after basic training. It's not the ones being honorably discharged after 20 years of service, unless it's like someone snapping from untreated ptsd or something. But this guy was full of it.
The local news who covered this originally when it happened had dug into it and his crew he was in in the military never saw any combat according to his military officer that they reached out to. It’s mind boggling how many people try using that as an excuse for things they do when they never even saw combat like they claim 🤯🥴
I know someone who was in the military and he would constantly call me and tell me that the only way that he would be free from his flashbacks and tics is if we were together. We'd never had any romantic interest towards each other before, at least not from my end, but he said that I was the only comfort he had. I was married at the time and I have two children... there's absolutely no way I could have someone unstable around me. I helped him get help and get him into the VA and on medication so he could be relieved of his anxiety and flashbacks, at least to an extent. There are people who seen REAL combat and react accordingly after having been discharged or served their time in the military, and back to being a civilian. This guy was so full of it that he couldn't see reality past the hazy film of bullshit that was over his eyes. Narcissist on every level. It's a good thing they got him. It would have been in Keith and Montanna's best interest to go together right after he'd killed this poor boy, and turned Nick in. No one will ever truly know the full depth of what happened out there, but the good news is that there's justice being served.
@@eddyblackmore2834 well if you are married, pretty sure you wouldn't like your girl talking to other dudes, unless your a cuck? It's okay if it's a small talk, but talking to other people if you are married is pretty disrespectful, unless you both agree on it.

@@orgoniteyahgoniteaustralia6888 She got the time she deserved. The police didn't have a case before she started talking and she neither committed the murder nor planned to commit it. Frankly she cooperated with the law so much I wouldn't mind if she served no time at all.
@@orgoniteyahgoniteaustralia6888 Lol what are you even talking about? Literally nobody made this a gender thing other than you. She was an accomplice and wasn't the one who actually killed him, so of course her sentence is going to be more lenient. What's so difficult to understand about that? She was sentenced and went to jail, so she was quite literally held accountable for what she did.
@@legoyoda9782 Women are never held accountable to the extent men are. This is referred to as a p**** pass. See for example the disparity in sentences (if any) for those female teachers who do inappropriate things with students, vs what happens to men who do same. Women get a stern talking to, men get a long trip to the slammer to live with Bubba.
The most honest statement made by Nick was when he told Montana that she knew everything he did. Montana lies her ass off over and over, whereas Keith was honest from the first talk. Keith had real remorse over what happened, and it truly seems as if he was the only one.... including the girl who was so angry she couldn't go with that she was crying.... being pregnant saved her from being in attendance. Too bad Idaho does not have laws against knowing a murder is going to happen, yet does nothing to stop it. Had she of called 911 and told them what Nick was going to do Hunter would still be here.
I know Montanna supposedly didn't move the body or anything, but I just can't understand why she only gets possibly 5 years while Keith, who told the truth in one singular interview, could and probably will be in jail for this crime for 26 years. I don't want Montanna in my community. Just because she's a woman doesn't mean she had no agency and didn't assist Nick like Keith did. Hell in my opinion she helped Nick more than Keith because she kept lying and tried tipping him off with that horrible phone call.
You said it - she's a woman. She can cry, she can lie way better than men, people like judges will sympatize with her. It's not a coincidence women are found guilty less often and receive far smaller sentences than men for the same crimes. The court system is sexist as fuck.
@@sayeedkizuk5822 "She wouldn't be dangerous on her own" this sort of thinking is why female criminals get off with 60% lighter sentences than males for committing the exact same crime. What is with this warped view that women cannot be evil and cruel? Mind boggling.
Back in the late 60's & 70's, my grandmother would pickup hitchhikers all the time. Especially if they were kids. Always scared the crap out of us. My grandmother had a Master's in teaching & thought maybe she could provide a positive influence on the kids to get them back in school. Sometimes she'd take them to the nearest diner for a hit meal. She had a big soft heart but boy, so glad she's unable to do that in today's day & age.

Sure the majority won't be influence by gun worship to kill, but it's the minority that's the problem and in a culture that worships guns, those few who are lunatics will use them to kill your family. Good job America, destroying yourself for the inside. The country of mass shooting, and daily random murders. Worse than Russia, China, North Korea, every African country. America has the highest homicide rate on earth, all because of this.
@@markh4926 they know the truth but to them their ego is the ultimate truth, so they say what u want to hear. They are not normal so they need to mimic how normal people behave. Like dirtbag chris watts.
I was staying at a hotel in Florida and decided to walk down the street to a gas station maybe 2 am, not many cars on the road at all; this SUV pulls up besides me with a couple, the woman leaned out and said "you want a ride", I refused. I'm positive nothing good was going to happen if I got in that SUV. It is chilling to hear what happened to Hunter and wonder. God rest him, that absolutely breaks my heart. ♥
You are wrong . They use the woman as a safe safety net .the woman is the bait .if u see a woman then there us a high chance a man is using her to lure potential victims .never trust women
Kudos to police in this case, finding the killer based on a throwaway FB comment that could have easily been dismissed or overlooked. Solid police work.
Detectives must have tireless focus and must be detail oriented and not miss even the smallest details that could possibly be clues or Tells. They use these clues, details to solve the puzzle of who is/are the killers. Helps also to have a 6th or Wolf sense.
No matter how many times I hear stories about people committing murder, it still is so shocking that there are people like this on Earth, and a woman stupid enough not to report it immediately when there was talk of shooting someone, or anything like it!
There are 2 powers in this universe; good and evil. Both are natural occurrences. If I put a flame to your arm it would hurt and be considered "bad". This is observable everywhere. The dichotomy of their very concepts make both inevitable, like being wet or dry. Evil will pay. Good always collects on its debt.
Right? If it were my boyfriend I would have kept my mouth shut and called the police as soon as I could sneak away long enough! If I had a gun on me then I would have tried to stop him from shooting the kid again. I can't believe how people can be so evil
@@laurieb3703 There's a whole category of women that are sexually attracted to extremely bad men. I believe she was fully in on it and not just the innocent bystander she claims she was. The detective told her not to speak to him anything related to the suspicion and she went straight home and told him, knowing that her lover may have murdered a man cause he was "hungry for blood". I mean, unless she's completely touched in the head, which she isn't, she was in on it.
It's because we're all good people, I've read the replies and I think the same way, we're the good and the people who kill others are the evil. Good people can't even think of taking someone's life, me personally if I was in that situation I would rather die. I can never ever, wrap my head around w h y like what makes you go out and kill someone who did nothing to you.
I hitched for years up until this one time 2 guys picked me up. I got the worst feeling of my life from the second guy who sat directly behind me, I imagined suddenly how easy it would be for him to throttle me. I'd never in my life felt such a cold certainty so I listened to my instincts and jumped out at the first stop sign. That was the last time hitch hiking. It felt dangerous in a way that I'd never experienced. Eta: when they picked me up the second guy was already in the back seat.
just discovered this channel 2 days ago and its definitely made my nightshifts go quicker. RIP to all the murder victims and hopefully all these killers have miserable lives in prison
@@chrisd2p2 Okay? Except unlike tryhard losers this guy actually killed a person. That's pretty hardcore/badass/testosterone fueled, and 99% of people aren't ballsy enough to just do it randomly, obviously. Sure he'd use the copypasta unironically, then kill you or your wife, after searching a public phone book lookup of your address like the guys on Kiwi Farms do. Less funny more frightening IMO but you do you.
Montana is just as much of a pos as Keith and Nick. She witnessed Nick kill someone, planned on killing others and was crying at the thought of him going to jail. She was even going to defend him in the beginning before she knew what the detective knew. In her mind Nick is good. She needs to be locked away for life too
I thought the same, the fact that she phoned Nick up in front of the cops and was acting like she didn't know anything, all the while Nick knows she knows what he did, so if she's asking these questions the cops must be with her... She was still protecting him at that point. She definitely should have got the same as Keith.
I think that he believed picking up the casings and hiding the gun covered the hard evidence. He didn't think his confession was hard evidence because his rights weren't read.
The fact that ANY of these "people" are going to be eligible for parole at all is sickening. Nick is 100% going to kill again if he gets out of prison. For f*cks sake, did the judge and jury not hear Montanna's interview where she gave multiple examples of how he wanted to kill people?! To kill someone who would stop to help you... evil isn't a strong enough word for that.
I don't think this Ahole will ever be free again. It's sickening tough that its even considered. Let's assume its a part of the plea to close the case quicker...
Our judicial system doesn't provide justice for victims anymore. The fact that parole was even on the table is just another disgusting example of this unfortunately.
I’m only 16mins in and when she said “I don’t want him to go to jail, I don’t want to go to jail” NOTHING about the deceased! A complete innocent person! She just as evil and these 2 psychos! And how does that phone call not set off any red flags?! She just randomly called and asked about the murdered hitchhiker and that dude is just like duh! I’m surprised she wasn’t the next one missing
I feel so bad for Hunter RIP & for all his loved ones. He just wanted to start fresh for his child. How can people be so cruel? Those are very evil & scary psychopathic monsters.
The fact that Nick didn’t get life in prison without parole is a terrifying thought. There is no doubt in my mind that he will unalive people again once he is released!
He'll likely never get released not matter how well he behaves on that 30 year stretch as long as someone on that parole board has a beating heart and a working brain. They always review the deeds before considering release.
I don’t get it. It seems like murderers in the US get such different sentences for pretty much the same crime. I try to look for mitigation in each case to see if I can make sense if it. I just can’t
It never ceases to amaze me how a jury gives the possibility of parole to a defendant whom is believed to be capable of commiting the same crime that led him to prison not one, but multiple times. Isn’t it clear that the guy is clearly a threat to society?
There was no jury, they never had a trial. The state was going for the death sentence, the DA gave Nick the option to plead guilty for the possibility of parole
In a nutshell you just summarized what sentencing should be about. It should be about protecting society with reform being a nice thing to try for if possible. Sentencing should be based on how much of a future threat that person poses to society. I remember a case where a kid's estranged father had seriously injured his mother on several occasions. His father then threatened to kill his mother on a particular day, the kid was ready for him in case he actually showed, which he did, and shot him to protect his mother. They gave him a life sentence without possibility of parole (the police had been called many times in the past but told them there was nothing they could do). This for a kid who likely would never be a threat to anyone for the rest of his life. Meanwhile they give much lighter sentences to people who have killed someone with little provocation but since it wasn't premeditated they were let off easy. Yet if you can kill without much provocation you will always be a threat.
I actually knew nick and spent a lot of time with him back in 2013. Years before this happened. Still blows my mind..I knew he was a narcissistic and didn't care much for others. He slept around a lot and actually had at the time atleast 1 kid possibly 2 kids he didn't have anything to do with. Shotting guns was a common activity of his. I never expected this though.
I live in Idaho, and this sends chills down my spine. Really makes me think about never helping someone on the side of the road again. You never know what people are planning to do. Be careful out there everyone
Agreed, and if I'm ever stranded on the side of the road angry, because nobody is stopping to help, then I have this guy and people like him to blame. One bad apple spoils the bunch.
If you see someone attempting to hitchhike, just call the police and say you see someone distressed on the side of the road. If the person truly needs help, the police can help them. If they're up to no good, like say in instances where a child decoy is used while people lay in wait to jump whoever tries to help them, the police can help the decoy and hopefully stop the would be attackers. I used to walk places a lot, I grew up in a small town and didn't have money for a car and had a 2 hour walk by the highway to my college. No real support system at home. Even if it was pouring rain, I never took rides from anyone. I'm sure people meant well, but you just can't trust people like that. Worst thing that happened to me was being chased by 2 wild dogs and having my stitches from a recent surgery pop open lol that sucked but at least i wasn't in someone's rape dungeon.
@@pinkdarkman dont call the police on a hitchhiker. the vast majority of hitchikers are good people and police will often just ruin their day. just dont pick them up if you dont want to
They were the ones helping the person asking for help. Most people asking for help probably actually need help. Don’t become an asshole just because scum like this exists
I love the split second when killers know they're caught. I can just imagine Nick's stomach jumping, palms sweating and blood pressure sky rocketing the moment he froze with the knowledge that the jig's up and that his friend and girlfriend are the ones who gave him up.
Too bad sociopaths/narcissists are excellent manipulators, and they do overwhelmingly well in prison. Which is why they can't be rehabilitated. They don't have remorse, therefore they suffer no consequences for their actions. They just continue to manipulate others in their new environment. Sad, but true.
From the way he was acting throughout this whole thing, I doubt he felt a single thing that you listed there. He clearly was just wanting to kill people for his own enjoyment and couldn't care about anything else. It didn't even bother him that he had been caught or that the others had given him up. Heck I bet he's still trying to get people to believe that the shooting was an accident as he's sitting in Jail. It's just how those type of people think.
@@Ddub1083 But he looks like he would, and once we all grow up, we realize it's much smarter to judge books by their covers. I'd cross the street if I saw that guy coming.
I don't believe Hunter made any inappropriate comments about Montanna. I believe that is Nick's way of trying to destroy his character. Typical narcissist behavior. The guy can't defend himself thanks to you. I don't believe anything out of his lying mouth
@@carolinafine8050 Yea...if I had to guess, the killers weren't hunting rabbit for food. Sounded like they got tired of killing small animals and then saw their chance for bigger prey with Hunter.
I bingewatch all your videos. i love the effort put in to research everything and gather the material. the narration is great and a big thanks for the subtitles!
I sorrow for you young man. You were so young and you had such a nice picture. A bright future ahead of him snuffed out so early. Poor Hunter. I am sorry you met Evil that day, darlin'.
Picked up a middle aged man as a 17 year old girl off the highway and took him to the nearest gas station. I never felt in danger but just knowing what he could’ve done or what he thinks I could’ve done horrifies me.
This video is throwing me for a loop because I work at a gas station and I'm listening to this while in the back room, and I always go out to the front when I hear the bell from the door opening but while they're interviewing the lady you can hear the exact same bell going off in the background a bunch and I keep thinking people are coming into my store when they're not.
really appreciate the respect you give to the victims and the family’s. many true crime channels tend to romanticize these tragic events. thanks for the great content :)
"Don't kill me. I have a kid" this is just so damn heart breaking to know that was his last words...i hope his baby girl never doubts that her daddy loved her. He loved her dearly. It was written all over his face.
So sad😢😢😢😢😢
He loved her.... he also loved 12yo girls so much he knocked them up and tried to run from the repercussions, out of town and state
@@SyCoTOK3R the baby mama was 12? are you making that up or is there some corroborating report? because he'd be in jail.
and that her dad was a very strong brave man
@@SyCoTOK3R so hunter had 2 kids? one with a 17 year old and one with a 12 year old?
My twin was murdered by a hitchhiker, my life has never been the same. Don't ever pickup hitchhiker and never hitchhike.
🙏😢💯
Sorry for your loss. I was not aware that hitchhiking was still practiced.
How heartbreaking. I’m so sorry for your loss. ❤
I am an older person living in an area with limited bus service and I often give people a ride. People here don't typically hitchhike. The odd one I don't pick up if they don't look 'local' and now I don't feel so bad, but I probably wouldn't pick up someone who is actually hitching as the local kids don't do that, if that makes sense.
I'm so so sorry 😞 ❤
Wow, she was so awful in that call. She basically asked him “so hey can you tell me all the details on that murder you committed that you already told me?” Like Jesus any person on earth would be able to tell that she’s got the cops listening
That was my first thought too but you'd think they'd go over what and how she'd ask or say before she called. So partially the blame is in the investigator too
That's interesting though - because he knows she WAS there, at the scene of the murder. So, he automatically knows something is up when she says she doesn't know what happened. I think she was trying to let him know the cops are listening.
Great point.
Guy wasn't smart about it either, questioning her about the cops listening in basically.
"They wouldn't leave a voicemail about a body"
It actually confuses me that they both would behave that way...
Actually...
Maybe things weren't fully divulged with them. She probably never said anything. Like at all. Nothing not even a comment on the food being good unless he asked. Listening to her she sounds like she's psychologically abused. This honestly was probably his next step in training her to help him murder people. But he fucked up cause he didn't realize who she was deep down.
Maybe so.
Don't forget that the girl was also hiding something. at that point her story was that she wasn't even there with them when the kid got shot. so she couldn't just ask something like "what happened there?" because he knows that she was there when he committed murder. neither could she say something like "what exactly happened there? I don't remember/that was too traumatic for me to register" because then the cops would have found out that she with them in the desert. she was in a problematic position.
She says he left a vm then says, I told him I'd have to call him back. How do you talk to a vm. Yeah they really should have prepared her for the call cuz she doesn't seem like the sharpest crayon in the box.
It’s scary how many people are okay with knowing someone murdered someone, and just letting it be
Yeah I think it's natural to gravitate towards pretending you never heard about it.
Scarier that they were planning to do this to people either need of help
or offering help...
Of course....you dont talk on people....ever. if you have a problem with someone being unmoral, take it on your own hands.....why should a third party get involved, the government, a criminal organisation that works on controlling and manipulating you and enforce unmoral rules by the barrel of a gun, they are the real criminals. That guy murdered an inocent "kid", while the government does it every day
MERICA
Pretty negligent 😢😢 yes
"nicks a smart fucking dude" meanwhile nick brings along two witnesses and posts a comment on facebook about the disappearance... yeah, dudes a genius
exactly !
Smart from his perspective. Which says something about him as well.
Yes thank goodness he had a high enough IQ to get caught
Yeah, he should have said " compared to me, he's a smart fucking dude "
Dumbass and a coward. Bringing witnesses to a murder scene, thinking he knows the rules on the Miranda rights and then also waiting till the victims gun is empty before shooting him. Wanna see him try that against someone with a full loaded gun. Narcissistic, idiotic and most of all pathetic.
RIP to Hunter. It's terrible that he encountered such psychopaths while trying to better his life for his child.
Yeah it's too vile
Sad to say, hitchhiking can be dangerous. Hunter only deserved a trip in a car or truck.
This Nick creature, this thing, this two pounds of meat, needs to be put down like Fluffy.
@@vwlz8637 Hopefully someone takes you out soon
@@vwlz8637 he didn’t name himself lol
Scary thing is 1 in 100 people are a physchopath.
I love how the detective told Nick he isn't going to read him his rights because he isn't going to ask him any more questions. Takes back the power nick thought he had when he refused to tell them where the gun was buried 🤣.
Literally got outplayed. That "not reading the rights cause we don't have to" was actually a very interesting thing to learn.
@@JustJustKen they be making up stuff on the fly I swear. There is no way that's legal
I love that detail.
I didn't understand what it all meant. Thanks for explaining. Proves killers are never as smart as they think they are.
@@m998hmmwv7 Miranda is a funny thing. It was intended to protect people, but police often capitalize on people's misunderstanding of it to use it against them. Miranda has a lot of ins and outs and "special circumstances," but the gist of it is this: when in police custody (which Nick was not, as explained in the video), the court assumes that anything you say was coerced until your rights have been read to you. The Miranda warning turns that assumption around. After being read your rights, the court automatically assumes three things:
1.) That you understand your rights,
2.) That anything you say from that point onward is voluntary (and therefore, admissible in court), and
3.) (this is the kicker) That you are waiving the rights they've just told you about.
After this point, you can exercise your rights, but unless you explicitly invoke them, the court may also assume that your silence is incriminating.
This is why there is only ONE correct thing to say to any officer who wants to interview or question you, whether you're in custody or not:
*"I'm not answering any questions, and I'd like to speak with a lawyer."*
One other important thing to remember is that even if a confession is ruled inadmissible, it doesn't mean that other evidence can't be used in court to secure a conviction. All other evidence legally procured is still viable. Nick obviously didn't realize this, either.
I love that the detective said he wasn't going to read his rights right now. It was a very small gesture but it spoke loudly to this guy, the detective was telling him you are not in control of this situation, I am. Well done
Indeed I love how he wasn’t going to let him think he had any control Nick clearly is arrogant and is rightly where he belongs in a fart hole
Right, I felt the same way.
What I don’t understand about that though is in the video, the narrator says you don’t have to read the rights UNTIL he was in custody. But, they did put him custody at the end when the detective said that, so did they then read him his rights immediately after? We never see it so idk. Not that I think it ultimately matters that much, but I just didn’t get that part.
@@Nandoswitharando I may be wrong but I always thought they technically don't have to read your rights until you're being questioned. Either way, I am very sure they read his rights at some point even if it was off camera
That’s a pretty risky move all for a power trip. Had they confessed prior to reading the suspect’s Miranda rights, the potential of the confession not being admissible in court is likely. Cops with overinflated egos lead to dumb mistakes.
I’m in the military, most guys who talk about killing people on their deployments are full of it. The real ones who’ve had to go through that never talk about it. It’s not a badge of honor to take a life in combat. This guy was a murderer. Nothing more.
Guaranteed this dude was a logistics clerk or some shit
I never understand why the killers purposely put themselves out there with information. Like why would he make comments on Facebook?
@@Joru0906 narcissistic behavior, I guess. They revisit the crime scenes knowing police are investigating it, they plant themselves in search parties, they talk to press or call in with tips for police to make themselves feel the center of attention. But this goes for true murderous psychopaths with beyond average intelligence, not this wannabe redneck Robert Hansen
Exactly Brother 💯
Exactly.
Not only are you ending someone's life completely without reason, but I will never understand how anyone would ruin their own life by killing some random person and being sent to jail. Insane.
I guess that’s the crazy part, they really think they can outsmart/get away with it.
Thrill of the moment most likely, they dont think this through.
But they were defending homosexual special rights !
seems like the government failed here but i dont know the full story. what i mean is soldiers/killers are always needed and even been admired in the past and to these days like the vikings who even had their beliefs all around death, blood and dying in combat to enter valhalla which we still kinda see to these days with the talibans. so the question is why r people like this not in war zones doing what only they enjoy and can do. like there probably millions of soldiers young men who dont fit the job as they might getting themself shot in fear of ending someones life which naturally born killers dont have so why isnt the government using people like this instead they send young men to die who never hurt a fly and the real killers rot in jail wasting tax money and their potential while the young men who have potential in other things have to do the dirty job
Being in jail it’s not enough for those evil criminals. If they knew there will be a death penalty the crimes rate would most likely drop to 0
I hitchhiked from Los Angeles to Miami Beach in 1976, it took me 10 days. Met a lot of cool people and never had one problem with anyone who picked me up. It wasn't until years later when I was reading about some serial killers that I realized I was hitchhiking in some of the same areas they were operating in. Kind of freaked me out. Today, I wouldn't hitchhike anywhere or pick up a hitchhiker.
i hear hitchhiking was commonplace from the 50`s till late 70`s basically till serial killers,rapists,etc. kept ruining the whole thing for everyone and safety become a huge concern, nowadays hitchhiking is dead, i`m surprised that Hunter hitchhiked as recent as 2017.
Hitching is very much alive still
Bet you followed the rules of the road
I was always aware of the dangers on both sides of hitchhiking, but before I got my life together and before Uber was everywhere, I had no choice but to hitchhike. I'm genuinely shocked that nothing bad ever happened to me. Beyond grateful for that too
@@stanraye6723
People still hitchhike. It is still more prevalent than most people would think, because we all know it’s so dangerous...but it happens.
The last detective is a genius:
"We did talk to Montana, and she told us some of the same stuff that you have said, but some of it is a little different.
We talked to Keith and he tol us some stuff too, but some of it is a little different.
So that is why we wanted to talk to you.
The story they told us has a different kind of an ending.
So we wanna talk to you about that and see what the ENDing really is."
*chills over 9000*
Sounds like any detective on any murder investigation ever
That is what they all say. Even if they don't talk to anyone else.
Roflcopter over 9000. All your lulz are belong to us.
As soon as he said “they wouldn’t talk about the body in a message” he/she both knew the police was listening. And she started asking questions he knew she already had answers to, he was sure the police was listening.
that was so frustrating! like.. if the police are gonna conduct a wired call at least make sure she doesn't say something stupid like "left me a message"
She seemed so unprepared during that call (or she deliberately didn't use the preparation she was given) because her performance was so unbelievable..
It was pretty obvious LoL
@@johnnyreed8144yes!! Exactly

@@athmaid I think she was really worried she would go to jail tbh. "I don't want him to go to jail...I don't want to go to jail".
@@MarkWhippy at that point in the video I still thought she was just worried about getting dragged into it without having known anything. But you're right, looking back it sounds quite different. I still feel kinda bad for her, even for Keith. Unless that part about him planning to do more killings with Nick was right
@@comment_deleted Nick might have been the only one with a loaded gun at that time, which might explain why they didn't stop him. But they could have at least tried to talk him out of it. Either way I doubt killing Nick would have been a good idea. They should have gone to the police immediately though obviously. I'm not even sure they had malicious intent, probably just scared out of their minds. But normally people can overcome that and make the right decision anyway
This reminds me of my brother. For years would lie about being in the secret service, going on missions, and killing people. This ended with him attempting to murder a woman and he went to prison for around 6 years. Definitely not enough. He is the definition of a sociopath and I fear for everyone around him. He’s moved away and I’ve cut him off completely from what he put my sister and I through when we were younger. I believe he will hurt someone again. He told me directly he stabbed this woman because he was “curious what it felt like.” No normal person does that. It’s just so fucked up. Anyone that can disconnect themselves from other people and not care have the ability to be serial killers imo.
Thankfully, not all of them are like this.
The Secret Service doesn't go "on missions" though.
@@ChadBoss-qr4hl I know, I was a kid when he would claim these things

It definitely screwed me up more but I’ve done lots of therapy and finally at the age of 23 I’m learning to live a normal life after a shit ton of mental health issues (anxiety, depression, suicide attempts, drinking issues, eating disorder, ptsd, etc.) He was a teenager (like 16) when he made his CIA claims. He also has outstanding charges for impersonating a police officer which doesn’t surprise me in the least. He did a lot of fucked up things. He destroyed our basement wall from throwing knives at it, SAed my older sister and I starting when I was 8, drove without a license, ran from the police, and totalled 5 different cars that were my moms. He lies and steals from anyone he can which has gotten him cut off by our entire family, only my dad occasionally sees him. Thank god he moved across the country so I don’t ever see him.
this reminds me of an old thiefs saying. 3 can keep a secret if 2 of them are dead. In a group crime someone will 99% of the time spill the beans either because they were offered a good deal to testify or because they think they can outsmart the detectives.

Yes hitchhiking is a dangerous and foolish act but that's the extent of it. Doing so does not make him bad. I think people just like to reach to throw the "bad person" stamp on murder victims when learning about cases like this because it helps lessen the impact of this horrific crime and it means they don't have to feel as bad.
@@alexf9381 i think humpty watched a few more of those like me and under every video they praise the victim like a saint even those whose actions let to their own demise like a guy getting killed for beating another guy, stealing another ones gf, cheating on gf etc and here his actions were the hitchhiking that let him to his demise well in this case the victim doesnt seem to have done anything bad to deserve it he just done something very naive that could have easily been avoided
The real question is, why did his family feel comfortable with him hitchhiking that long distance??
Silly comment miss ab.
He was a substandard dad. Trust me
This guy was clearly obsessed with the idea of being a killer. “Stress relief”.. killing a young father you shared a meal with and chatted to, for no reason other than personal satisfaction. Then planning how to do more.
Good thing those hunters found the body and reported it. Good work by the detectives. They definitely saved future lives by their actions as the killer here was happily fantasising about his next targets.
The killer should have gotten death penalty because he can get out on parole and do it again.

@Jack Russo attention is most likely or a reaction.
@@Joru0906 Some sort of attention seeking (like how some killers love speaking about their... "achievements", they are a narcissistic bunch), he probably felt he was smarter than the rest too.
Man I originally felt bad for Montana thinking she just got caught up in it, but damn the dude was talking about doing it again & that it'd be there turn next. Any sympathy I had for her flew out the window. I'd be scared to live with someone who could just murder an innocent kid in cold blood like that.
I don't care how tight we are, if a friend of mine did something that heinous with zero justification & talks about doing it again,, your going to prison. Sorry not sorry.
I never understand why the killers purposely put themselves out there with information. Like why would he make comments on Facebook?
@@Joru0906probably thought no one would ever realize it was him. Made him feel powerful to behave like that in plain sight
I agree.. if one of my friends did this so easily, they could just as easily do it to you!!!
Exactly. If a friend of mine took me out into the desert and shot a stranger like that, they're clearly NOT my friend. I can understand playing the part in the moment out of fear of being next, but the second I'm out of his sight, I'm snitching. No hesitation.
Right? How some people can just let things pass is insane. If one of my friends admitted to any sort of abuse or physical harm on anyone else then I would be on the phone soon after to 911.
Women especially seem susceptible to just going along with douchebags like this. Whether it be a physically abusive roid raging asshole who physically and sexually abuses her to the F'd in the head military guy who just loves violence who then just kills someone. The girlfriends "never see it coming" or "he's not really like that" while literally anyone else with 5 braincells to use can see these guys are a problem after learning about them for 5 minutes.... but for her "yeah, I can't think of anyone else I could possibly love/sleep with"
Anybody else concerned this has happened a few times before with his statement of "We've picked up 100s of hitch hikers over the last 3 years"?
I think that’s because it was obvious to him that the cops were listening and that was a poor attempt to diminish suspicion.
She still stuck by his side after he murdered a dude infront of her so I wouldn’t doubt they’ve done this before.
I think that was bs cause he knew someone was listening in
yeah no they've 100% done this before, probably with homeless or addicts, prostitutes, people not reported or likely to go missing. The two dudes fit the profile perfectly, that text message he mentions indicates they have a pre existing understanding here. That makes it even more clear than the hitchhiker comment.

The baby is an accomplice?
His dad is insane to think they “don’t have their ducks in a row.” And the new girlfriend is a vile human for being disgusted at the fact they are accusing him of planning it. They should live in shame and scorned for standing by a person like that
He would have eventually done the same to them
@BigBuzzyBumbleBee I was wondering the same!
To be fair we have no idea how much the new girlfriend knew. Or even his parents for that matter. He was probably manipulating them just as much.
Now they both have 30 years ( in a row ) to eat their words.
@BigBuzzyBumbleBee because they are most definitely vile, evil humams themselves. If they weren't they wouldn't be attracted to someone who just murdered a kid and called it "stress relief."

@@SiriusSphynx their point is just that someone could fabricate having kids, in an attempt to save their life.
18 year old with a kid? yeah right
These people are beyond vile! Thank you for covering it so thoroughly, Hunter deserved the truth to come out.
Bro really threw in ".45. The lords caliber"😂😂😂 omfg NOT THE TIME
For real. I hadn't heard that since I was a kid and was NOT expecting it right then.
It is absolutly unacceptable that the actual murderer only served 30 years while the others served 15 and 26. That is absolutly insane and appalling. He should be doing 80. Especially since in his own words he will kill again.
His parole term should have been longer, certainly. But, its only eligible after 30. His comments in the interview and outside of it depict someone who will kill again, and that would make for a very hard parole case. I imagine it will be denied many times, until he has at least served 50.
I fucking know right, the idea of letting a man like this out ever again is absolutely insane. Putting the public in danger, fucking abhorrent
@@abcdefzhij in most other countries he'd get 10 years as that's the life sentence
do some research on parole eligibility. they will be out in 5 and 11 years. and most likely the killer will not be let out after his 30 cuz of what he did.
What disturbs me is that Montana got less time than Keith it seems they were equally involved and that Keith was quicker to be truthful with detectives. Where are the feminists demanding equity.
I feel so bad for this young man Hunter. He fought to live for his baby even after being shot three times. RIP Hunter
Twice in the head too! His resilience was incredible, I feel so bad this happened
@@jauume I know, who survives being shot in the head twice?!? It makes me sick that the lady only got 11yrs and then will be up for parole. She could've saved Hunter's life if she had just gone to the police after knowing the plan. She's just as guilty as the other two. Now this poor child has to grow up without a father. They destroyed many lives.
He was only shot once in the stomach at that point.
@@rustyscrib6071 He wouldn't have survived being shot in the head twice. He just didn't die instantly and went into agonal breathing.
@@shakerson During the interview with nick he said that hunter was still alive after being shot twice in the head, so they shot him a third time.
NICK: *confesses everything*
ALSO NICK, FIVE MINUTES LATER: "I'd like you to read me my rights."
lol what a genius
that sh*t eating smirk on his face during that first interview like thinking he outsmarted the cops...what a dope
I guess his thinking was to get it on tape, that at that point, AFTER the questioning, he had not been read his rights. So in his mind everything he said could not be used against him. Such a genius.
Poor kid lost his life for absolutely nothing. 3 against 1 is definitely not a fair fight. RIP Hunter 😢
The worst part is he'd be alive if he hadn't gone. His family had every right to worry. I really pray this is a horrible lesson learned for us all. We can't be trusting of anyone not even someone with a broke down car😔
It wasn't really a fight if two of them was sitting in a car and the assailant was using a rifle or gun.
How in the hell can these people be given these sentences and then serve less than half the time if paroled? And how would Nick even have the chance to be paroled? What our society allows is reprehensible!
Even a 1v1 is not a fair fight if the person is armed. It’s a tragic story nonetheless
@@SyCoTOK3RIs this true , if so mf had it coming .
That's crazy. How could someone watch that and not report it as soon as possible? Makes no sense to me. I'm sure she was probably afraid of him to some extent but I just can't understand. Great video EWU.
Nick wouldn't do his first kill before witnesses, unless he knew they were on his side (i.e. prepared for what would happen). They were in on it, they knew what would happen, it's just hard to prove. The only reason they're talking at all is to not be charged with murder.
Because they're serial killers
@@BTSArmy-ge5gf they probably were killing more people
These new Hannah Montana episodes are dark as shit for sure
Montana's and Keith's sentences seem very excessive to me, especially since they are not actually that much lower than the actual killer.
Love how Montana says, I didn't watch. As if that will alleviates some guilt in court or even on a personal level. Also, she totally watched.
she drove me insane when she talked, her fake crying and behavior right after the detective screams she is a serial liar and shes just as guilty as the guy
Quite disgusting person. She is crying and victimizing herselves while she is actively protecting someone she know is a murderer and want to be in a relationship with.
Though is it really her fault if she did? It was never her intention to be part of the murder. Also you were not there. I mean she could have looked down or kept on looking. But they never charged her with any kind of murder, only not reporting. Also I think personally the innocent project should work with them because intent matters a lot in crime. Even the narrator said Nick made them do things to entrench them in the crime so they felt like they could not go to the police. Also that he was the only one with a gun at the time. You would agree that if someone puts a gun to someones back and walks them into a bank and tells them they need to ask for the money or die... that the person being held at gun point is not in fact robbing the bank. This is why intent matters. Though both of them should have plead the fifth and then plead out immunity. Why you never talk to the police even if you are technically innocent.
@@Harizakdude. She lied to the investigators THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. She knew about a murder and not only didn't say anything, she hid it and told the murderer the police were looking into it
It's the whole "I didn't want to be a part of it" crap for me. If you didn't want to be a party to it then why didn't you at least attempt to help the victim? Unbelievable story! Terrible people
Seeing pictures of him and his kid is so devastating to look at. He had the biggest smile in the photos, I can tell he was so happy to be a father.
@@paperman9708 dude it said in the video he got a job in nebraska to pay for the kid. the idea to hitchhike was a terrible idea but he def wasn't on a "vacation" as you put it.

Amazing how because someone didn't pull the trigger themselves, they think they can be a witness to a murder, not call the police and think they're not an accomplice. Insaneeee
Yes, it's quite a sickening betrayal to have people around who actually turn out to give your own life such little regard that they would let the worse happen to you and never think to do anything to stop it. How worthless others are to them is disgusting. Not suppose to be how human beings are one bit.

She's as guilty as the guys..she's a shameless liar and when she was talking to 'Nick' on the phone..he was immediately suspicious because she obviously knew what had happened.
And she got parole after just 5 years. That means she's already free after conspiring to murder people with those other psychopaths. Justice system failed.
@@geigertec5921 Absolutely agree..I'm pretty certain that the other 2 would'nt of ever got involved in something like this without the influence of Vandenberg..however look how skillfully she lied,acted the innocent and feigned ignorance and maneuvered her position..if anyone was being manipulated by Vandenburg it was much more likely be the dull witted jail fodder Rabey..Once Rabey started talking- his version of events was far closer to the established facts and truth than the smoke she kept blowing up everyone's ass..
She ought to of got as long as Rabey minimum..and if anything her lies and deception..(and the fact she was keeping Vandenburg informed and updated of the police investigation..when the interviewing officer clearly asked her not to do it)should of earned her considerably more.
She was present at the murder..I believe she probably acted as bait and to put the Victim at ease and was happy to do this knowing full well what Vandenburg had planned for him..
Rabey is a petty criminal..jacking cars and barfights are more his thing
he's not the brightest guy and unlike the other two lacks a stable family background or any sort of stability in life..
She had more choices in the situation..and could easily have turned Vandenburg in at any time without any repercussions on herself..unlike Rabey who had nowhere else to go.
Vandenburg is a psychopath and a rotten coward he deserves to leave this earth the hard way..but she enabled this murder and made a proactive attempt to cover up for her boyfriend..she deserves a lot longer than the couple of soft years in jail that her pussy pass bought her.
I think its a little wild they have to serve 5 and 11 years while he has to serve 30. He should have life without paroll.
well no shit, he wasnt suspicious, he knew she was calling from the poice and she knew he knew.
@@dreadfullguppy19 as usual, they get less time

Even without context of what he was in for, you can just tell there is something sinister and dark about him. Hunter must’ve been terrified.
There's nothing scary about him. He's a bottom-of-the-barrel loser and he knows that. His acts of violence (both real and imagined) are a scream for respect and attention, things that he's been desperately craving for, probably his whole life. And he will die in jail. in complete anonimity, without ever achieving either.

Another ex-military criminal huh?
When a veteran said to me, "they teach you to do it, but they never teach you to stop," stuff like this was the first thing into my head.
He's not military
I would bet almost all of my money that everything he bragged about was a crock of shit. All the ex-military criminals, if they were ever even in at all, are usually the ones who get kicked out after basic training. It's not the ones being honorably discharged after 20 years of service, unless it's like someone snapping from untreated ptsd or something. But this guy was full of it.
That line is from a movie.... js
@elenavandreiden7948 yeah he was. Marine.
The local news who covered this originally when it happened had dug into it and his crew he was in in the military never saw any combat according to his military officer that they reached out to. It’s mind boggling how many people try using that as an excuse for things they do when they never even saw combat like they claim 🤯🥴
I know someone who was in the military and he would constantly call me and tell me that the only way that he would be free from his flashbacks and tics is if we were together. We'd never had any romantic interest towards each other before, at least not from my end, but he said that I was the only comfort he had. I was married at the time and I have two children... there's absolutely no way I could have someone unstable around me. I helped him get help and get him into the VA and on medication so he could be relieved of his anxiety and flashbacks, at least to an extent. There are people who seen REAL combat and react accordingly after having been discharged or served their time in the military, and back to being a civilian. This guy was so full of it that he couldn't see reality past the hazy film of bullshit that was over his eyes. Narcissist on every level. It's a good thing they got him. It would have been in Keith and Montanna's best interest to go together right after he'd killed this poor boy, and turned Nick in. No one will ever truly know the full depth of what happened out there, but the good news is that there's justice being served.

The most honest statement made by Nick was when he told Montana that she knew everything he did. Montana lies her ass off over and over, whereas Keith was honest from the first talk. Keith had real remorse over what happened, and it truly seems as if he was the only one.... including the girl who was so angry she couldn't go with that she was crying.... being pregnant saved her from being in attendance. Too bad Idaho does not have laws against knowing a murder is going to happen, yet does nothing to stop it. Had she of called 911 and told them what Nick was going to do Hunter would still be here.
Keith had no remorse, he was planning to do it a second time and had discussed the first murder with Nick before it happened. Don't be naive, my dear.
I know Montanna supposedly didn't move the body or anything, but I just can't understand why she only gets possibly 5 years while Keith, who told the truth in one singular interview, could and probably will be in jail for this crime for 26 years. I don't want Montanna in my community. Just because she's a woman doesn't mean she had no agency and didn't assist Nick like Keith did. Hell in my opinion she helped Nick more than Keith because she kept lying and tried tipping him off with that horrible phone call.
Keith had priors, probably affected the sentencing. Montanna didn't seem to be much more than a pet, she wouldn't be dangerous on her own.
@@sayeedkizuk5822 Still did something horrible that deserves punishment.
You said it - she's a woman. She can cry, she can lie way better than men, people like judges will sympatize with her. It's not a coincidence women are found guilty less often and receive far smaller sentences than men for the same crimes. The court system is sexist as fuck.
Exactly logically make no sense, she lied way more. Less than half the sentence for the same crime
@@sayeedkizuk5822 "She wouldn't be dangerous on her own" this sort of thinking is why female criminals get off with 60% lighter sentences than males for committing the exact same crime. What is with this warped view that women cannot be evil and cruel? Mind boggling.
Back in the late 60's & 70's, my grandmother would pickup hitchhikers all the time. Especially if they were kids. Always scared the crap out of us. My grandmother had a Master's in teaching & thought maybe she could provide a positive influence on the kids to get them back in school. Sometimes she'd take them to the nearest diner for a hit meal. She had a big soft heart but boy, so glad she's unable to do that in today's day & age.
She sounds amazing.
Nothing has changed the danger is still the same??? Tf does your grandma being old have anything to do with that

Kudos to police in this case, finding the killer based on a throwaway FB comment that could have easily been dismissed or overlooked. Solid police work.
Detectives must have tireless focus and must be detail oriented and not miss even the smallest details that could possibly be clues or Tells. They use these clues, details to solve the puzzle of who is/are the killers. Helps also to have a 6th or Wolf sense.
The killer is also a moron for leaving the body near his house. A truly moronic serial killer.

No matter how many times I hear stories about people committing murder, it still is so shocking that there are people like this on Earth, and a woman stupid enough not to report it immediately when there was talk of shooting someone, or anything like it!
There are 2 powers in this universe; good and evil. Both are natural occurrences. If I put a flame to your arm it would hurt and be considered "bad". This is observable everywhere.

@@laurieb3703 There's a whole category of women that are sexually attracted to extremely bad men. I believe she was fully in on it and not just the innocent bystander she claims she was.

I'd never in my life felt such a cold certainty so I listened to my instincts and jumped out at the first stop sign. That was the last time hitch hiking. It felt dangerous in a way that I'd never experienced.
Eta: when they picked me up the second guy was already in the back seat.
Girl you crazy
So strange for that person to be in the back seat allready...
Glad nothing happened but wtf, why on earth did you get in that car? Do have no sense of self preservation?
You were a snuff film in the making.
That was planned. They were cruising around, looking for a victim.
just discovered this channel 2 days ago and its definitely made my nightshifts go quicker. RIP to all the murder victims and hopefully all these killers have miserable lives in prison
What kind of job do you do?
Security no doubt. If he has hours to just watch youtube. Lol
I'm doing the same thing at my nightshift job lmao
@@clivewilson4678 I’m a security guard and I always watch this channel during my shift
Good luck with lack of sleep, you have a lot to watch. 👍
One of the first things I learned in Kindergarten was to never get in a car with strangers. It stayed with me my whole life. I never did hitchhike.
This guy thought because he wasn't under arrest then his confession to murder didn't count...Yeah sure Nick is sooo smart.
You’d think he would know the law before intentionally admitting to murder😂
If you witness a murder then hear them talk about doing it AGAIN, why in the world would you want to protect that person?!?
bcuz maby they are inocent???
@@SoyAntonioGaming bro are u dumb or something?? If they witnessed it how could they be innocent?
Fear of getting killed themselves maybe? Just theorizing here of course

@@chakalaka3960 that's kind of the point
@@chrisd2p2 Okay? Except unlike tryhard losers this guy actually killed a person. That's pretty hardcore/badass/testosterone fueled, and 99% of people aren't ballsy enough to just do it randomly, obviously. Sure he'd use the copypasta unironically, then kill you or your wife, after searching a public phone book lookup of your address like the guys on Kiwi Farms do.
Less funny more frightening IMO but you do you.
Montana is just as much of a pos as Keith and Nick. She witnessed Nick kill someone, planned on killing others and was crying at the thought of him going to jail. She was even going to defend him in the beginning before she knew what the detective knew. In her mind Nick is good. She needs to be locked away for life too
and the new g f too
Bruh I thought I was trippin, I'm glad they got her but parole after 5yrs??? That's wild
I thought the same, the fact that she phoned Nick up in front of the cops and was acting like she didn't know anything, all the while Nick knows she knows what he did, so if she's asking these questions the cops must be with her... She was still protecting him at that point.
She definitely should have got the same as Keith.
Surely she's worse than Keith? He was honest with them from the get go unlike Montana, and seemed to show some remorse
She is just not a snitch like you are
It's weird. He's not gonna tell where the gun is, but he'll freely confess to murdering him.
I think that he believed picking up the casings and hiding the gun covered the hard evidence. He didn't think his confession was hard evidence because his rights weren't read.
The fact that ANY of these "people" are going to be eligible for parole at all is sickening. Nick is 100% going to kill again if he gets out of prison. For f*cks sake, did the judge and jury not hear Montanna's interview where she gave multiple examples of how he wanted to kill people?! To kill someone who would stop to help you... evil isn't a strong enough word for that.
Yeah there’s no rehabilitating Nick. He does not need to be a part of society ever again.
I don't think this Ahole will ever be free again. It's sickening tough that its even considered. Let's assume its a part of the plea to close the case quicker...
Our judicial system doesn't provide justice for victims anymore. The fact that parole was even on the table is just another disgusting example of this unfortunately.
I’m only 16mins in and when she said “I don’t want him to go to jail, I don’t want to go to jail” NOTHING about the deceased! A complete innocent person! She just as evil and these 2 psychos! And how does that phone call not set off any red flags?! She just randomly called and asked about the murdered hitchhiker and that dude is just like duh! I’m surprised she wasn’t the next one missing
She is evil as well. At the end though she ended up going to jail as well. Such a stupid dumb evil witch.
please don’t stop putting out content across all of your channels. i can’t get enough!
I feel so bad for Hunter RIP & for all his loved ones. He just wanted to start fresh for his child. How can people be so cruel? Those are very evil & scary psychopathic monsters.
The fact that Nick didn’t get life in prison without parole is a terrifying thought. There is no doubt in my mind that he will unalive people again once he is released!
He'll likely never get released not matter how well he behaves on that 30 year stretch as long as someone on that parole board has a beating heart and a working brain. They always review the deeds before considering release.
It’s a small community. They’ll show up at every parole hearing to make sure he stays in prison.
Unalive? This is UA-cam, you have no reason to censor ‘murder’. Saying anything else only parodizes the severity of the matter.
"unalive" fuck's sake it's a word not a plague, just say kill or murder
I don’t get it. It seems like murderers in the US get such different sentences for pretty much the same crime. I try to look for mitigation in each case to see if I can make sense if it. I just can’t
As soon as the detective mentioned that he’s talked to the other 2 you could see his whole world crash down
It never ceases to amaze me how a jury gives the possibility of parole to a defendant whom is believed to be capable of commiting the same crime that led him to prison not one, but multiple times. Isn’t it clear that the guy is clearly a threat to society?
There was no jury, they never had a trial. The state was going for the death sentence, the DA gave Nick the option to plead guilty for the possibility of parole
@@raquelmesser7017 OH NO, that makes it worse. It clearly shows how our justice system needs to be fixed. Thanks for the info.
It's the optimal outcome, no trial, no appeals, and no parole, because despite being allowed to ask for parole, no board will let him out.
lets hope so@@andiward7068
In a nutshell you just summarized what sentencing should be about. It should be about protecting society with reform being a nice thing to try for if possible. Sentencing should be based on how much of a future threat that person poses to society. I remember a case where a kid's estranged father had seriously injured his mother on several occasions. His father then threatened to kill his mother on a particular day, the kid was ready for him in case he actually showed, which he did, and shot him to protect his mother. They gave him a life sentence without possibility of parole (the police had been called many times in the past but told them there was nothing they could do). This for a kid who likely would never be a threat to anyone for the rest of his life. Meanwhile they give much lighter sentences to people who have killed someone with little provocation but since it wasn't premeditated they were let off easy. Yet if you can kill without much provocation you will always be a threat.
I actually knew nick and spent a lot of time with him back in 2013. Years before this happened. Still blows my mind..I knew he was a narcissistic and didn't care much for others. He slept around a lot and actually had at the time atleast 1 kid possibly 2 kids he didn't have anything to do with. Shotting guns was a common activity of his. I never expected this though.
I live in Idaho, and this sends chills down my spine. Really makes me think about never helping someone on the side of the road again. You never know what people are planning to do. Be careful out there everyone
Agreed, and if I'm ever stranded on the side of the road angry, because nobody is stopping to help, then I have this guy and people like him to blame. One bad apple spoils the bunch.
If you see someone attempting to hitchhike, just call the police and say you see someone distressed on the side of the road. If the person truly needs help, the police can help them. If they're up to no good, like say in instances where a child decoy is used while people lay in wait to jump whoever tries to help them, the police can help the decoy and hopefully stop the would be attackers. I used to walk places a lot, I grew up in a small town and didn't have money for a car and had a 2 hour walk by the highway to my college. No real support system at home. Even if it was pouring rain, I never took rides from anyone. I'm sure people meant well, but you just can't trust people like that. Worst thing that happened to me was being chased by 2 wild dogs and having my stitches from a recent surgery pop open lol that sucked but at least i wasn't in someone's rape dungeon.
@@pinkdarkman dont call the police on a hitchhiker. the vast majority of hitchikers are good people and police will often just ruin their day. just dont pick them up if you dont want to
They were the ones helping the person asking for help. Most people asking for help probably actually need help. Don’t become an asshole just because scum like this exists
Dude, what's with y'all's laws there in Idaho!? People in Texas can kill somebody by drunk driving with no intent and get more time than this guy😭.
I love the split second when killers know they're caught. I can just imagine Nick's stomach jumping, palms sweating and blood pressure sky rocketing the moment he froze with the knowledge that the jig's up and that his friend and girlfriend are the ones who gave him up.
Too bad sociopaths/narcissists are excellent manipulators, and they do overwhelmingly well in prison. Which is why they can't be rehabilitated. They don't have remorse, therefore they suffer no consequences for their actions. They just continue to manipulate others in their new environment. Sad, but true.
From the way he was acting throughout this whole thing, I doubt he felt a single thing that you listed there. He clearly was just wanting to kill people for his own enjoyment and couldn't care about anything else. It didn't even bother him that he had been caught or that the others had given him up. Heck I bet he's still trying to get people to believe that the shooting was an accident as he's sitting in Jail. It's just how those type of people think.
Palms sweaty, mom's spaghetti
"I couldn't see Keith hurting anybody, either." *The photo of Keith immediately determined that this was a lie*
but keith didnt hurt anybody...
@@Ddub1083 But he looks like he would, and once we all grow up, we realize it's much smarter to judge books by their covers. I'd cross the street if I saw that guy coming.
Scary to think that any of us could cross paths with someone like them at any time
I don't believe Hunter made any inappropriate comments about Montanna. I believe that is Nick's way of trying to destroy his character. Typical narcissist behavior. The guy can't defend himself thanks to you. I don't believe anything out of his lying mouth
Well, he was already dead, so he never made it back to the house...

Picked up a middle aged man as a 17 year old girl off the highway and took him to the nearest gas station. I never felt in danger but just knowing what he could’ve done or what he thinks I could’ve done horrifies me.
Do be careful. Not paranoid, but careful.
@@Dice-Z I could easily have killed you just now.
Why would you pick up a male as a 17 year old girl.. Or pick up anybody at all.. That's just opening yourself up to being a target, don't do that omg
This video is throwing me for a loop because I work at a gas station and I'm listening to this while in the back room, and I always go out to the front when I hear the bell from the door opening but while they're interviewing the lady you can hear the exact same bell going off in the background a bunch and I keep thinking people are coming into my store when they're not.
