Adam’s sister is delusional.
I posted the same thing.... total denial. :(
150% delusional at that
Right I can’t believe she was seeing someone’s behind my brother back
The brother:(abusive) 🫠
@@confidentminajexactly!
I knew it when she kept making him the “victim”. Disgusting
Never tell an abuser what your intentions are. Leaving quietly will save your life. Rip Maddi.❤
@@user-zj7tu1gi3q It doesn't matter,she didn't deserve to be murdered.
Right! For them that’s a loss of control and that makes them more dangerous.
@@user-zj7tu1gi3q were they even together? They weren’t married so that’s not adultery anyway. Seems more of a roommate situation and she wanted to see other people. Regardless no reason to take her away from their kids.
@@MMAMike22 women just need to get in line so the guy in their life doesn't end up killing them. You do realise that men don't own women and vice versa. That guy was never normal.
@@MMAMike22what a disgusting thing to say
Missing woman + scratches on the husband's face + blatant threats = you've found the killer.
People make blatant threats all of the time.
@@ailyyang5982yeah but when you combine that with a missing spouse and injuries on the spouse that’s still around…
My ex fiancé violently attacked me one evening, slamming me to the ground on my face and held me down screaming at me at the top of his lungs, keeping my phone away from me, wouldn't let me get up, leave his sight or leave the house etc.
He had NEVER before even raised his voice to me, he was wonderful, I loved him deeply, my family loved him, we all trusted him completely and had known him almost 20 years.
I could have let it go, after all I had felt partially responsible for pushing him too far that night and it could have been chocked up to a "one time thing" but I knew deep down I HAD TO LEAVE. That broke my heart but I knew the statistics and now I was truly terrified and traumatized.
So, I played it cool with him but told my therapist, friends and family, found an apartment, packed up and left the following week during the day while he was at work.
We cannot mess around when it comes to things like this. It's hard to leave the one you love and the life you built but when they lay violent hands on you, it has to be GAME OVER, the *first time* , period! This is the ultimate "deal breaker".
Stay safe. Not just the ladies either, men are vulnerable to DV too and it can and does escalate quickly. Life is too precious and too short. 🙏🏼🩵🙏🏼
So glad you are safe! You’re brave for leaving! Did he ever try to find you?
So sorry you had to experience such horrible treatment. I hope you are doing much better today.
Well, if he never even raised his voice and you pushed him, you destroyed a perfectly good relationship!!
@@mistersniffer6838
What a ridiculous thing to say. You obviously have very different standards of behaviour to the vast majority of right-thinking people. You need to have a good, long look in the mirror…
@@Thecaptain666 - Okay, sherlock, if he never even so much as raised his voice, why now? Thats something OUT of character. Other people/things make you go out of character, you just dont "go" out of character.
I bet she was cheeeting and didnt want to tell us the whole story!!
Adam’s sister is the WORST!!! “He let her get her degree” LET. Just shows how terrible is family is.
That part! She's a monster just like her brother😒
Adams family.
Systemic
The constant "He never would hurt her" made me so angry. Like, woman, he did hurt her, he hit her, he choked her, he threatened her with killing her, your argument is false. She doesn't even acknowledge that he was a violent partner. And get me lost, with the two sides of the story devil's advocatery. If they deep inside know that he killed her, they also think she provoked it. What utter despicable beings that whole family is.
"Let" yep I've been in controlling relationships & they come from controlling families.
Absolutely disgusting
His sister is delusional.
I normally give grace but shes insufferable!
"You'll adjust"....What a pos!
RIGHT!?
37:36 _"We were treated like we were delusional. He would never harm Maddi"_
That's because y'all are delusional! That text - "you'll adjust" alone confirms that yes, he would harm her🤦🏾♀️ c'mon!
@@Nikki_with_the_blikki Exactly. "You'll adjust -to being abused in front of the children"...that is some sick sh*t ..
But it was all a joke.....seems to be the go to excuse
total violent narc. couldn't pull his weight and took it out on her.
She did adjust
Telling a guy who chokes and beats you that you’re leaving him for another guy is probably not the best move.
I mean why? Why would you💔
She cheated
@@OsceolaNola7no she didn’t they made it seem like but she didn’t Ik Spenser personally
@@OsceolaNola7that’s like stating one variable of a very involved dimensional analysis equation…one variable doesn’t say much. Learn to be able to consider life has way more complexity than a dualistic and limited mindset.
@@herowrex9937Spencer literally admits it in the video.
HE KILLED HER!!! The fact that his family is supporting him!!! So sorry Maddi, may you RIP 🙏🙏🙏🙏
It would be nice to see one episode where the killers family just accepts the fact that their family member is a psychopath.
Unfortunately, it's easier to live in that river in Egypt than to face the fact your relative is a murderer.
It follows the same thought that everyone goes to heaven when they die. So far, I have never read an obituary stating that someone went straight to haides!
@@NefariousEvildoerwhat can of evil are you doing......are you in a 48 hours video?
Remember they don't know that person. Suspicious sometimes but people are definitely different per relationship. Accepting that was another part of them good or bad is key. No one Is all they seem in my life exerperince
Yes
The sister being “shocked to hear Maddie was dating Spencer behind her brothers back” hits a nerve with me - ok, how “shocked” were you when you found out your brother had abused Maddie, and killed the mother of his children??
i feel sorry for spencer and megan and but adam's family are still delusional
@@aparnarajesh they really are severely delusional. I guess him slapping her in the face on a video call and threatening to make her like Gabby Petito is normal to them😮
This!!!
THANK YOU! It reminded me of Chris Watt’s mother when they interviewed her, she spent the whole fricken interview bashing Shannan, and I’m like, so you’re fine with your golden boy strangling her and your grandchildren??? Victim blaming at it’s ugliest tbh.
@79Bobola she even had strong supporters doing it on the internet too it was disgusting I had to moved on from all that
--Adam chokes Maddie, slaps her, and threatens her life
--Adam's sister: "My brother would never do anything to harm Maddi."
You can't make this level of delusion up.
hes innocent homie was set up by spenser
@@SteveDrenseru must be just as delusional…
“We were treated like we were delusional.” I WONDER WHY
His sister so proud that he MANNED up, he went and got a JOB, he LET Maddie finish college...then loses his job during Covid and never bothers to get another one, the kids go to daycare, and he contributes a big fat nothing to the household.
yeah they are completely delusional. and they know it. which means they are just tryna protect.
+1. she was doing clinical research at mayo clinic and working on advanced degrees? he didn't "let" her finish studying, he was hoping for a meal ticket
imagine kids going to daycare when a parent doesn’t work my wife would drop kick me
But never married Maddie. Such a man.
Right, like any of that was an excuse to harm her! I doubt she told him to quit school.
Police: "The first 24 hours are the most crucial in an investigation".
Police: "You'll need to wait 24 hours before we do anything".
More flawless logic from our finest.
That is changing in most states thank GOd
Atleast you don't have to wait for cops to search. They are gonna be in same position, where do we start from.
Exactly my thoughts each time I watch these stories pertaining to missing persons smh like something has to change!!! Especially for kids 13and under they should not have to be missing for 24hrs,not at all!!
Not the case in the UK thankfully.
Yeah that old system needs to change with the times.
The average American nowadays has a phone and can call and check around for where their missing friend or family member is in minutes and determine if the person is really missing.
Where as decades ago people were not nearly as connected and checking with friends and family took almost all day and the person would be found safe at a friend's house asleep or something. Thats why there was the 24 hour rule.
Police resources were "wasted" by worried parents whose kids were just late getting home. Most of the time!
Her best friend breaking down on her porch made me break down 😭 such a heartbreaking story of a beautiful young woman
His sister, get a grip...YOUR BROTHER KILLED MADDIE !!!!! She says 'He would not do anything to the mother of his kids' BUT, a friend witnessed him slapping her across the face and reported it to the police !!!!! HE financially didn't support the woman he was meant to love !!!
HIS SISTER NEEDS TO SHOW SOME BLOODY RESPECT TO MADDIE'S FAMILY, AND THE BROTHER ' THERE'S ALWAYS TWO SIDES TO A STORY' HE IS 100% DELUSIONAL 🤬🤬🤬
What can anyone expect from someone who looks like they eat people weekly. His sister needs to be investigated.
To everyone, please never tell your spouse that you are leaving him. Do it quietly and make sure you find a place to stay where you know he can't find you.
Particularly if he’s violent.
That’s bull crap! Majority are not violent .
@@lanabuehrer5616 Think you need to run, now.
But they can become violent in a split second. @@lanabuehrer5616
Crazy thing is--they weren't even married. He must have had some sort of supernatural hold on her...
Ladies you don’t tell people you’re leaving because it’s the most dangerous time in an abusive relationship, you just leave
If you're in an abusive relationship then leave. Don't cheat and then leave. Just leave. Cheating on an abuser is absolutely dumb - just get the f out of there.
@@moonie9000in this case, I think it was the new relationship that gave her the strength and courage to leave the unhealthy relationship.
@@sunshine1221 she couldn't have been that scared of him if she was gonna cheat. Just leave.
@@moonie9000you don’t know that though. You don’t know how a lot of these situations work.
@sunshine1221 in this case, it was the new relationship that likely got her killed.
Adam's Sister: "We were just treated like we were delusional."
You are. He's guilty. The moment an abuser puts his hands around their victim's neck it's only a matter of time before the abuser kills their victim.
Oh, his sister know. "He would never do such a thing," followed by one of the hardest lip retractions I've ever seen...she knows deep down.
FYI: Dear Adam’s family; Cadaver dogs are specifically trained to sniff out human decomposition not animal or etc.
Right! 😂
True; however, they don't always get it right.
Absolutely 💯 😅
Thats not true.
Cadaver dogs also alert on dead animals, even if solely trained on human remains.
@@StofStuiver no they don’t.
The first time your partner lays his or her hand you, let that be a warning and leave.
The abuse usually starts before this and that's when you grab your stuff and the kids and leave.
esp. like that. unbelievable. i don't care what the reason. hands on you ,time to go.
It's not that simple which is why so many women are murdered. They say the most dangerous time is when you tell your partner ur leaving so never tell them. But like I said it really is not that simple.
The sad thing is there is a woman right now watching this story who is choosing to ignore the signs and will land up in some precarious situations as well.
Exactly!
I think it is wonderful when one sees communities coming out to help the Police and family when searching for missing members.
It's hardly ever effective though.
His sister is absolutely delusional. Adam is totally guilty
His siblings are disgusting. How can you defend someone who literally threatened to make someone end up like GP? 😡
thank u.
And also try to shift blame back on to Spencer. They are bad news like their brother.
They’re pick mes that’s what they do. This is the final boss form of a pick me that’s why they should get all the shame they can get
Very creepy family.
Delusion to it's max degree!
There isn’t a woman on this planet who would think GP’s case is a joke… It’s a threat.
The GP case is nothing to joke about, Adam meant to recreate one of his own and did lie it was a joke
there isn't a sane human that would think the gp case was a joke.
I've heard many funny jokes in regards to the GP case ...Enter Shane Gillis
what is gp?
@@traviscoates6878But he’s not funny.
Ballsy to not only cheat on an abuser, but then to tell them about it. That’s an exercise in poor judgment even on a great day.. I do not understand people’s lack of caution in what people are capable of..
His sister is so cringe! "He allowed her to continue her education." Say WHAT?? Girl, you need to keep that trap of yours shut. "He manned up." The hell he did! He used her as a meal ticket and a punching bag. When a violent relationship ends, get as far away from him as possible and DO NOT COMMUNICATE WITH THE MONSTER! You simply MUST make a clean break.
"He would never harm Maddie" Lady, he literally hit her in the face while she facetimed. He wasn't even trying to hide it
My thoughts exactly.
Does she have amnesia or something that she would forget about his violent history?
It's not about his sister! They all knew at poor maddys family, EVERYONE. They continued to let her stay with him.. I would have made her. You gonna go around, " if I'm gone, Adam did it" you should take the help handed. And as a mom , I would have made her come home, for the sake of her babies and me..
Adam is evil. Maddie was evil. The sisters and friends are evil. The parents are evil. Are there any good people in this story?
👏👏👏I totally agree. Parents should take their daughters away from such abusers and not allow them to return. Sometimes you have to move to another city so that the person doesn’t find you.@@adriennem7927
Exactly my thoughts!
The family of the killer “ WE WERE TREATED LIKE WE WERE DELUSIONAL “ ….: because yall are
They are worse than delusional. They are complicit enablers.
A dead raccoon 😆😆🤡 nice try
Seeing him come to get their kids and petting the dog, knowing his just murdered their mother...ugh, haunting.
I thought I was the only one who caught that. He was able to be so cool and casual after a heinous incident
I cried watching this video. I hope and pray that she’ll be in peace and that justice will prevail. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Adam's siblings are horrible. ESPECIALLY the sister. As a WOMAN, to sit and defend someone who "jokes" about Gabby case that is a suspect to murdering his GF.. absolutely atrocious. She's absolutely lost her mind.
I as a woman can never defend a cheater
@@elorah-sh1ozthink a minute. think deep and hard about your values as a human being and then come back and tell us if you really think that this is an appropriate comment in this situation
@@solidway you can't break someone's trust and your marriage and not expect consequences.
@@elorah-sh1ozthey weren’t married.
Add to the fact his “joke” wasn’t even that. Sounded like a direct threat.
Saying one is “joking” after getting in trouble for saying something they shouldn’t is simply a cop out and a cover.
“You’ll adjust” makes my blood boil… smh
Same!
Yea, they're gonna have to hunt real hard for a good change of venue cuz I know everyone is ready to drag and convict this monster! Sounds to me like her body was so messed up all they could put was homicidal violence smh
Her response was everything tho
Genuinely so evil
You’ll adjust
Thank you 48hours for putting this full episode on
I wish my cousin got this kind of coverage. Jojo Boswell was leaving owatonna Mn on foot making her way back to Minneapolis and the only sighting of her was in a Home Depot surveillance footage a man comes up to her talks for a bit then they walk off she never made it home. It’s been nearly 18-19yrs
I believe Because she is indigenous she barely got a dismal 1 min clip on local news. You don’t everrrrrrr see huge media coverage of any missing Indigenous/Native Americans, she did get another small clip or mention on the issue of missing and murdered indigenous women. She was only 19 just shy of 20. I pray for all misssing people and children to come home safe or remains be found for closure for us families who sit day after day year after decade after decade of wondering who what why.
I wish too! I do remember hearing about this ONCE 😢
Try reaching out to Podcasts! Get her story out there again!
That’s what happens when you’re indigenous.
Adam, I have a feeling “you’ll adjust” to life in prison. RIP Maddi. 🙏
Best comment here! 💯
I hope he doesn't and struggles with it every day..
🏆Best comment
Adam I know what you are going through that's why I started dating overseas didn't want to end up where you are I'm praying for you
@@Wisdom24-7 So you went over seas, bc you couldn't get one woman in your country to like you? I can see why..
Adam stood up and found a job at the age of 20+ ! Wow , such an accomplishment 🎉
Lol
He also lost his job during covid and the pandemic happened like two years before this took place
@@johndeer9968right, and i forget but had he found a job since covid or just depending on Maddie to take care of the bills seeing as he ALLOWED her to finish college. Such a scumbag!! I hope and pray her gets the maximum sentence!! RIP Maddie❤
Right lol
@@kimpayton727To be fair, that quote didn’t seem to mean Maddi needed permission to go to school. The intention was to say she was able to go back to school with his help with the kids.
Adam and his sister are just nauseating. She’s basically trying to
to blame the victim, instead of holding her brother accountable.
Pure delusion.
Why is CBS's woman reporter smiling so big while telling the story? It seems off when the story is so grim. Her giant smile just seems like she is laughing about it.
Probably plastic surgery. Some women get the "always smiling" face-lift, which comes off pretty creepy up in certain situations. This would be one of them!
If the sister is any indication this guy was coddled and praised for doing the basics in life
"So proud of him" 👍🤥👌 😡
As a kid, he was probably rewarded with a trip to Toy-R-Us every time he wiped his own ---.
Much like Chris Watts
Well said
Telling your girl she’ll end up like Gabby Petito then being shocked when she leaves you is crazy
No kidding! What a sick-o to even ‘joke’ about that! It’s horrible any way you look at it. A joke, a threat. Either is awful!
*so shocking* that she didnt have the wherewithal to leave his abusive a** without the support of a 3rd party (another man)
@@teresah4972That’s not even a “joke” (where was the punchline) and more like a direct threat.
I’ve seen many times someone get arrested for saying something they shouldn’t (such as a threat) and then they try and cover themselves and downplay it by saying “it was a joke”.
@herewegokids7 um... she was the bread winner. She made plenty of money, she didn't need the other guy.
@@ashleyspells-hayes5539 i wasnt talking about money
Telling your financially dependent abusive boyfriend you have another boyfriend is wild. 🤦🏽♀️
She was trying to hurt him like he hurt her, I get it, but not the right thing to do. I was in an abusive relationship and he almost killed me. I had him arrested
These lawyers who defended a murderer will have bad luck for the rest of their days
It makes me so mad that in this day and age police departments are still lying to people saying they can’t file a missing persons report until the person has been missing for 24 hours.
Take it to the local news, the police commissioner, the mayor, the governor if they won’t file a report!!!
Because actually MOST missing people show up
Blame the people that wasted the police time
it’s like we pay them to disrespect us. some are so lazy
Usually family and friends know their loved one and know when something's wrong if the person has always been consistent about contacting them or being there when they say they're going to be there ... and this is why some people don't want to wait 24 hours because they just know something is wrong and for that person to not contact them or show up is totally unlike them
Makes no sense. More time less likely the person will survive
The husband family is in utterly denial.
They're just as obnoxious as Cindy Watts. It's not even denial. They know he did it; they're too arrogant to admit blame.
JUST TO CLARIFY. MADDI DID NOT MARRY ADAM. BUT YES, HIS FAMILY IS VERY DELUSIONAL! 😒
You can also tell his family was raised weird
There sick !!!!
They know the truth. They are liars at best.
Unfortunately, perfect example of how NOT to get out
of a relationship but an abusive man. You need a plan
and you need to be careful, methodical.
10 minutes in and I say her husband did it as he said ‘find the amazing mother of my kids’. Saying ‘find the mother of my kids’ on Facebook, not my wife is depersonalising her/distancing her from him, he knows she’s already gone as there’s no emotion attached, if he cared and was genuinely concerned he’d have said please my beautiful wife I am devastated or something like that
A few minutes in, the fact that the guy picked up the kids and went to his parents an hour away...not home...is already suspicious. Why would anyone do that, if they didn't already know Maddie would not be coming home?
I said the same thing....
Right!!
Exactly! I was surprised they didn't mention that suspicious behavior in this video.
That was i thought
I was just about to say the same thing 😢
"..she was alive when i left her.." - every man that kills a woman they know and were the last one alone with.
How does the "TikTok" angle bear any relevance whatsoever to this case? Why did we watch multiple clips of her sister updating her "following" with no news - particularly wrapped in a towel?
Yes very odd
So sad...what a tragic loss for her children, sister, parents and friends.
Adam’s sister: “He would never do such a thing”
Yet Adam texts Maddie: “you’ll adjust” (to being hit in front of our children).
Wonder what she thinks about that text?
Right?! I really wanted to see what she had to say after that too! omfg the delusion 🤡
Me too 👍
That text was truly unhinged
Not hit. Adam had her pinned down with his hands around her throat!
She’ll have her own delusional spin,on it.
I have a 31 year old stepdaughter. When I discovered that her former boyfriend was being verbally abusive and threatened her, I confronted him and said that I wasn't afraid of jail. To watch his back. She finished the relationship and he left her alone. Please, families. Get involved and show these cowards the same medicine. They always retreat. If Maddie was my daughter, he was the one being missed.
Yes families need to help. But if the victim isn’t willing to help themselves the family cannot do anything. Victims would rather have their ego satisfied than care for their safety.
You are so great!
Good for you! I was 37 when I stayed at my parents’ while obtaining a RO and getting the sheriff’s to escort my abusive ex out of the house. I’m forever grateful to my family for their efforts in keeping me safe during that scary time in my life.
And If your step daughter lied Because we know people don't ever lie (sarcasm),If i were on your jury I'd vote to convict you
Good for you! I was 27 when I left my husband of 3 years. We had a 3 year old. Was pressured to marry him because of the pregnancy. He was emotionally abusive but he started becoming physically abusive 2 years into marriage. I plotted my escape, woke up after a nasty fight where I was forced to lock myself in our guest bedroom because he physically stopped me from leaving the home to go to my parents and yanked our toddler from my arms injuring her. I made up my mind that night I would leave him the next morning after he left for work. I didn't tell him or my parents (for fear they would accidentally tell him) where I moved for months. Drove around the city until I found an apartment that would give me a key that day. Left with nothing but what would fit into my car. Filed for divorce and waited the mandatory 6 months required by court. Celebrated my freedom and safety once I realized he "moved" on. It only took him a few months to find a new girlfriend. I do think I saved my life. He continues to be abusive. He is divorced again. Unlike some abusive men he openly proclaims to be a Narcissistic megalomaniac. He wrote an entire online blog about his self destructive personality. However he denies ever abusing me.
Police need to start investigating immediately. They don’t need to wait. If people turn up while you’re looking that’s ok.
This doesnt take sherlock holmes to figure out. Boy meets girl. Boy beats girl. Girl cheats on boy. Girl goes missing. Hmm? Duh.
When your family tells you to get out, you get out.
And don’t tell the abuser you’re leaving.
It will just set them off.
How absolutely heartbreaking
I WISH young ladies would stop telling these abusive men their plans to leave them. MOVE IN SILENCE!!!!
Jodi Arias says hi.
I think in some cases they say it when they don’t actually want to leave them , they want them to change, they haven’t yet accepted they will never change and that they are in real danger, once they get to the point to really really wanting to leave or realising things have got dangerous, then hopefully they just leave and hopefully it is not too late. Most people ignore many signs and red flags until they hit breaking point. In this case, it’s got to an affair and telling him of it -she should have been long gone before the affair - narcissists don’t want you but they won’t knowingly ‘allow’ you to leave them for someone else
They need to stop protecting these men. I mean every single time, it’s he was abusing her but she didn’t want to hurt him. Or get him arrested. Like how dumb can you be?
@@Daaaanielle Jodi Arias sends her regards to you.
AND don't add a boyfriend cuz. it acts like gas on already outta control flame!!!
Im from across the river and helped in the search for her. There were SO many people that came together to help. Busses upon busses. Its a very sad situation, but the love shown for her from the community was beautiful. I hope her family felt the love and support from everyone.
That 24 hour rule about missing people is the most pathetic rule ever. An excuse for laziness, almost as if the 👮♀️ police hope you’ll just go away.
Siblings are oblivious that their brother is a murderer
Chosen ignorance
No, they know, they’re just trying to protect him. They sleep well at night telling themselves lies about their brother.
Nah, they’re well aware.
No their not in denial, they knew he was dangerous
Narcissist don’t want you but at the same time don’t want to see you happy with someone else. The denial of his siblings is ridiculous 😢 RIP beautiful…
Absolutely 😢
💯 the truth
So true. For them to say when they heard of the break-up, that they felt like they'd lost a sister is such an 'about me' thing to say - people retain relationships and you'd both still have been an aunt & uncle to the kids.
Narcissists* don't
Not much beauty in being unfaithful... but of course modern women now applaud that kind of behavior
Adam’s family is in such denial. I can’t even listen to them defending him. It’s obvious he killed her. Spencer had no motive and he has an alibi. He’s not the one who assaulted and threatened her. Hopefully she will get justice this fall. RIP Maddi.
Joking about Gabby Petito? Naah from the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. That was a huge red flag💔
yes, I OFTEN THINK OF THAT SCRIPTURE
Me too
His sister and brother are delusional and the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Looking that man in the face telling him, "I am cheating on you, leaving you for your frat brother and taking the children" is dangerous.
people, when you call the police, tell them the person has been missing for 24 hours so you don't have to wait
I raised/trained cadaver dogs. A raccoon would not cause a trained dog to alert. Human remains only cause alerts. We train them to know the difference between animal scent & human scent.
what about rotten porc meat?
@@RichardWagner-hi4znI am pretty sure they are still able to tell the difference.
I could just be assuming but I feel like I’d use pork to train the dog 😂
@@peezypeeze9140 Imagine you had once left porc chops in the car during summer. Then your wife goes missing and you 'll end up in prison bc of that. Vegans: not gonna happen with me! lol
@RichardWagner-hi4zn
Not the brightest bulb eh? There were other incriminating evidence against him too- the cctv evidence & all his past domestic violence episodes and Gabby Petito remark..
@@ABC-ed8cg The dim bulb is which does not spot irony.
Don’t tolerate abuse in your life or the lives of others
Its a good thing that the two childrens went to the care of Maddie's parents and not to the narcissists family.
Im glad they got him, my sister was murdered by her husband in 2000 but the judge let him go not because there wasn't enough evidence as there was plenty, it's because of the police ties of his family. Joyce Douglas - Coulier was missing for a month before she was found on the Coulier property
Adam’s siblings DEFENDING A COLD BLOODED, LAZY, VILE MAN makes them genuinely atrocious!!!
Hope they never get partners,or have children to abuse. They are just like him.
I don't know what they thought the end result would be with their blathering and cringe statements, but they certainly did not earn any points for themselves OR their vile brother!
Never ever tell your abusive narcissistic spouse that you're leaving them or that you're seeing someone else, just make your plans silently while planning your exit and don't even share your address or contact.
Thank you for making this! Justice for Maddi. Been here since the beginning, wish it could have been a different outcome
So very sad for the children 😔
Adam’s family needs to wake up….
She cheated .. I wouldn't care either
@elorah-sh1oz no wonder she cheated..this man was a dead beat living off his gf's money not only that he never helped her around the house and also have the nerve to beat her while living off of her? Her having an affair is not even cheating at that moment.
And if you defending him that means you are just like him
@@shmwmlam3953 no wonder she cheated? She's six foot under tho.. she's probably all Skelton by now
@@elorah-sh1oz and where is he now?
@@shmwmlam3953 in prison but at least alive
To Everyone (men & women): Please do not ever take any threats lightly. It’s not a joke. Get out! Your life depends on it. Any discomfort & heartbreak felt from leaving is nothing compared to losing your life & possibly the lives of the children you may have.
Agreed and thank you for acknowledging that violence against intimate partners is not isolated to women, nor isolated to straight relationships.
And it's never a joke. That's not a joking matter😢😢😢
Agreed. And remember that leaving is THE most dangerous time.
Oh get real. There are a billion threats made every day.
@@charlotted6247lol it's NEVER a joke, ew
just knowing that my mother had to tell family and friends the same message, “if anything happens to me (her bf at the time) did it. i would never leave my kids” breaks my heart. she luckily made it out alive but it absolutely destroyed her life. her identity was stolen, she got beat regularly, he would also lay hands on me and my siblings and he put me and my sibling in extremely dangerous situations. still now years later we feel like we have to watch our backs for him because law enforcement did absolutely nothing to help ever.
"When someone shows you their true colors, believe them" --Adam did it. Duh.....
It makes my blood boil when family defends murderers, when they know they're guilty.
Almost all the time... including Chris Watts' delusional fam. It makes me sick!!
What about women that are lying cheaters? Do they make your blood boil too?
theres no proof he did it at all
@@thegoatudontknow except for the proof.
NEVER EVER tell someone you're leaving, kids or no kids. Just have a plan and go!
May want to leave out the Affair?
Keep the secret of dating somebody else while living with another man who is the father of your children is very dangerous.
“He had the job up until he got laid off during COVID” Covid started in 2020 that means he was unemployed for at least 2 years 😂. What a miserable loser
Sister says that her brother would never harm Maddie? Do you have any idea how traumatic being choked by the father of your children is like!??? That is past Harm!
Exactly!
It’s like they conveniently forget his violent history.
Speaking of the Racoon his dad was supposed to have cleaned up, where is it,? Was it buried. They can easily prove it, if it's the truth.
Still no reason for cheating on him…

Obviously you’ve never been in her type of situation. I understand how you feel about that. There’s much more that you don’t understand.
@beverlybalius9303.. so she’s expected to stay in a faithful relationship with an abuser??
At the point of leaving an abusive relationship, remember, it is the most dangerous time for the abused person. RIP Maddie
I'm so sorry for Spencer. I hope he'll be able to find love again in his life.
Adams' sister is actually the one who sounds delusional. What's so sad about the narcissistic people who commit these horrendous crimes when they can't have their way, is that they actually fool a lot of people.
All the facts are here. It seems so obvious, I hope he gets convicted and looses his freedom for the rest of his life. My heart says a prayer for Maddie's family and her precious children, may peace come.
If Adam finds some of the non-consensual aspects of prison life to be a bit taxing, I can only say, "You'll adjust."
Nice!
That's really gross and you should never joke about it. I don't care what crime somebody committed, sexual violence is not an acceptable part of the punishment.
?
@awesomebeautiful that’s why am eye for an eye is better
This dude's siblings seem to be totally in denial. Their childhood home must have been so full of normalized violence for them to defend their brother even after he told the mother of his children that she'd end up like Gabby Petito if she wasn't careful. Poor Madi. This is why it's important to have protected sex, too. If she hadn't gotten pregnant, she may not have felt obligated to stay with the man who abused and ultimately murdered her, for the sake of her child. She could've left Adam for Spencer and been in a much healthier, happier relationship. Now those kids are motherless and practically fatherless too, if he ends up serving time for his violence as he should. What a completely avoidable tragedy caused by an emotionally immature man-child. May she rest in peace and may her family find strength and closure.
They look like they were raised weird ... his sister said he let her go to college😂 .
Crazy stuff like that
I know a few families like that, it's like a family full of narcissists, it's scary
@@gardensofthegods you're right, I caught that, too! And the first thing she said was "he manned up" because he didn't leave her when she got pregnant.... 🙄🤮
@@Alyssa-rf1fi yes I responded to and now I see that my comment disappeared .
Yes I agree with you they said a lot of weird stuff and you can tell they grew up in a family where they don't see women as equals and I don't think they really liked his girlfriend very much .
Sometimes accidental pregnancy happens. My sister had an IUD when she got pregnant! And she was also told by doctors that she would never be able to get pregnant, but she used birth control just in case anyway. So when she did get pregnant, she did end up keeping the baby as it was truly a miracle!
That girl using her missing sister for social media clout
His sister is in total denial! How does she know what happened behind closed doors?
The fact that the killer's siblings are trying to deflect blame to Spencer, says more about the crazy family that Frabels grew up in. What nuts we share the earth with.
Exactly! His siblings are not right in the head either
might been spenser homie we dont know
The mayor was almost getting emotional when he basically said he was proud of Maddy and also saw her as a child. What a good mayor.
We love him here in Winona!
In this day and age there is so much readily available infos about domestic violence warnings and tell tale signs. What to do and not. and especially NEVER disclose your intention of leaving to the abuser. So why are we still seeing the same pattern repeated in all these cases???
My eyes bugged out when he answered her with "you'll adjust". Very sick.
BEWARE: There is no law that says police have to wait 24hrs before looking for a missing person. NO LAW! Although, it might be that stations protocol, that doesn't matter.
If you are ever in this type of a situation, which I hope never happens, you tell the police you want to speak with the head of missing persons and point out that there is no law prohibiting police to wait any amount of time. You fight for your loved one. No matter who you have to fight. The first few hours are crucial. Be an advocate. Please.
Another stark warning about a man, a husband, being dependent upon his wife. He was "forced "to quit school, while Maddi continued her education getting her Bachelors. However, Adam should have gone back to school, and treated Maddi with respect and kindness. My heart ❤️ goes out to Maddi's family.
Adam is so guilty. Never held accountable for anything. Never had to work for anything. A free loader and his family is in denial and enabling him. And if he walks free....he will do it again to another woman.
48 hours is one of the most informative investigative shows on UA-cam. And hopefully they get awards and recognition for it.
You know it’s a TV program right? It’s just been uploaded to you tube.
😂@@Jedstop
🏆 Here you go 48 hours, here's your UA-cam award.
Yes they are well presented but the times I investigated and did more research and looked at other shows and documentaries then I realized sometimes they would leave out some information that I felt was really important and I would wonder why they didn't mention that in the show
@@gardensofthegodsThey do that to slant the viewer in the direction they want.
