Everyone 3 days ago was like “What the hell is this guy smiling about!?”. Nicely done, Chief.
I think his mustache makes him look like he’s smiling. It’s just his resting face
I told my husband "The Chief is smirking and smiling in his interviews! They have their suspect and an arrest is coming!" I just knew it! Thank God for these men and women of this LE team that put in countless hours of work on this case and continue to turn over every rock to get the conviction! 🙏 #JusticeForIdaho4
I felt that too I knew that something is coming soon !
@@kellywilkins8756 He was smart not to do a Hitler moustache because then he would have looked a lot more menacing
I thought the same thing. I thought he knows something we don't know.
I have been so impressed with how this man communicates and his genuine warmth. He is a credit to his department.
He’s a credit to the human race. A great man.
I agree! Pure class
He didn't even answer questions he's smirked and talked shit about true crime ppl for their findings..ya okay
@@SethHollingshead you gossipers didn’t find a damn thing.😂
@@SethHollingshead - probably because he’s a professional and you’re not, Seth…
"We're not a prideful group." That is so apparent and has been all along. Even with the criticism and bashing he remained good natured and did his job. I'm so impressed by his grace under fire. Not only did they find who they were looking for but he kept it classy. Take notes ya'll. THAT is how you move through this life.
God, please bless the families and the prosecutors.
That spoke volumes
Yes! 💯 well said. Such cases can go on for years, this was a fast investigation leading to arrest. They've done very well. I felt all along they had it under control especially as no reward being offered. What's not said is often the biggest clue in these big investigations. Well done LE 👏
Excellent example and lesson for me. Such dignity.
💯💯💯💯👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽♥️
As I'm totally agree. This man has maintained a pleasant demeanor in the face of intense criticism.
Chief Fry I never lost faith in your ability to solve the case! And the slight smile you had all the time appeared to be your nerves, first off I can't imagine how you were feeling when you witnessed the scene and thousands of people were watching and waiting for answers. And you never let us down. Yet you appeared to take very little credit, you deserve a LOT of credit. Yesterday I seen a real smile on your face! Congratulations to you and all the agencies involved in solving the case.
I said the same thing when people kept critiquing his so called “smirk.” I said no I think this is just an honest reaction with nerves trying to maintain diplomacy and professionalism with the media. A job well done.
This poor guy took a lot of abuse from a lot of clueless people. This guy is a good man !
I agree💯
Lots of abuse. But he’s smiling now! Good man.
You have to give him credit for keeping everything tight lipped. Glad their hard worked payed off!
Me too. With all the anti police BS and the “online victims advocates” constantly talking about how awful the police are doing and how they aren’t telling the families anything.. it’s for a good reason. I mean you can’t just release vital info to make people no matter how close they are feel better bc those same people will get bombarded by media and (as we have already have seen) will GO TO the media and screw up the case for the prosecution.. people are going to want all the wrong things done and fuss about cops not doing it the way they want it done but I salute the police as a whole for their work in this instance.
Yes. Kind of like a certain percentage of the population took it from the other percentage recently over individual personal medical decisions. Haha. Happy New Year. No one's apologizing to us. Sorry. OMG, I totally made that all about me. I'm not a narcissistic, but I'm married to one. I'm more of a codependent empath. Anyhow, Sorry. 🤦🏼♀️ My dog slipped me an edible. Haha. ♥ I do hope you have a safe, happy and healthy 2023!!!
I really like him. Everyone thought he had no idea what he was doing. The reality of it is, he did EXACTLY what he was intending to do. Kudos to him. This is probably the biggest case of his career and he did things the way they needed to be done. Plus, he was smart enough and not too proud to ask for extra resources and help.
Couldn't agree more
The FBI did it all actually
I agree and looks like he's followed the law which is admirable today!
People just wanted to know more.
Totally agree. The best leaders don’t pretend to know everything ..but at the same time are very skilful in knowing what their blind spots are and securing the right help at the right time to achieve a goal.
Such a devastating case. May these four victims rest in peace and may their families and friends find the strength and solace that they need.
Chief Fry has been such a gentleman throughout this grueling investigation. It's obvious that he's an empathic, caring man. I was pretty sure he must have a supportive wife. He was accused of taking too long to solve this crime, and kept his cool. Gotta hand it to him. He and the police force did a great job. I've always supported him and the other Moscow police. Some day, there will be a movie or documentary made about a "small town" police force that did a "big town" job. It's actually the subject of a lot of crime dramas, and this one really fits the genre.
I'm extremely impressed with Chief Fry. I feel he is intelligent, caring and genuine. If I lived in Moscow, I definitely would feel a certain confidence in knowing he is the leader of this investigation and police department. A big thank you, Chief Fry and your team, for all the hard work, determination and hours you have put in and will continue to put in on this case to find justice. ⚖️
Under our US Constitution people are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Regardless of what you hear from all the armchair sleuths on here who most are not educated. This man is entitled to his day in court. Benjamin Franklin said that it is better to let 100 guilty men go free, than to convict one innocent man.
@@kellykravec1698 and the person who wrote the comment didn’t say a damn thing about guilt. Get off your high horse thinking you know something. Yes we live in a country where those arrested/incarcerated/tried are innocent until proven guilty. Do you really think that the Moscow police, Idaho state police, fbi, and now PA state and local police would have 3 warrants and 4 counts of murder charges as well as a count of burglary, and be wrong? Cause I sure don’t. This man they arrested is guilty as far as I’m concerned.
I really like Chief Fry, his calm, caring, compassionate and humble manner, the way he has led this investigation and his dedication to ensuring the suspect is brought to justice in a carefilled and cautionary manner. He has not brought an "ego to the door", got and accepted the help he need to bring resolution. I would be honored to have him as a chief in my town.
Hear! Hear! Teamwork is Dreamwork!
Well said. 💛
Exceptional man. We need more like him.
Well said! 🎯
I totally agree.
This man is so likable. He seems truly genuine, sensitive, compassionate & professional. When he announced that a suspect had been arrested at the press conference yesterday he sounded like he was on the verge of tears.
Very true
Yes, I thought the same thing, you could hear the emotion in his voice (edited for spelling 🙈)
True true true
Awesome man/cop !!
He did! I thought he is either so angry ready to split this guys skull or he's just so overwhelmed he's going to explode. His cheeks were so red too. I'm sure he had a lot of diff emotions.
I am so happy for him and his officers. They kept their cool. He seems like such a gentle man. God Bless you guys!
He genuinely seems like a nice guy who is passionate about what he does. He underwent tremendous stress and scrutiny throughout the process, which he handled with grace. Others in the field can look to him as an admirable example of being a humble servant of the justice system.
He is a poor leader. Crying leader do not bring confidence. No
This man deserves so much praise. Even with all the people saying horrible things about their department he held strong and didn’t give any details simply because the public demanded it. If the suspect knew anything about what they were doing he could have set the car on fire and gotten rid of any evidence inside the car. No different than the Delphi case keeping the fact they found a bullet in between the girls that was traced back to the suspect. If Richard Allen knew they had the bullet he could have easily said his firearm was stolen.
Great job law enforcement.
Difference is, Chief Fry found his suspect 2.5k miles away within 7 weeks, It took the Delphi cops nearly 6 years to find their guy on their doorstep despite their suspect admitting he was there on the day of the murders.
I agree, there was so much criticism it was ridiculous. People were literally acting as if this was the first murder case, unfortunately this happens a lot the only difference is the others don’t get the same publicity. I don’t know why it’s so hard for people to understand that they simply can’t share all the information during the investigation. It’s so sad he had to explain that he’s usually a happy person that smiles a lot (and it’s easy to see that) because people were criticizing him for that. Their entire department and everyone involved did a great job!
Agreed they really dropped the effing Ball in Delphi!! Pissed me off for those two baby girls & their parents & loved ones💔💔
Chief Fry is one of those people who have 'kind' eyes. He seems like such a genuinely nice man.
And you judge a book by its cover huh?
@@SethHollingshead you again, Seth? You are commenting multiple times slamming the LE team. You seriously seem to have something against this Police Chief and/or the Department. Why? Given they have found and charged a suspect? Even if the investigation and trial takes a while, at least what everyone demanding has been done - a viable suspect has been arrested. What else do you hate him for, and why..?
@@SethHollingshead i was critical of him and the team of investigators at the beginning too. you cant deny the fact that this man has handled everything with class.
@@SethHollingshead Time to go troll elsewhere.
These LE officers have seen the worst with this case---and not just 1 victim but 4! They worked diligently, gathering over 100 physical items of evidence, digging through 1000s of tips.
And YOU have nothing better to do than trashing them (and insulting other commenters).
Get lost.
@@SethHollingshead
Kindness & sadness in his eyes. I feel for him as much the victims. Thank you for the hard work
Trained up in the way we shall go!
This man has the patience of a saint. I have to say I’m really impressed by his levelheadedmess and professionalism. He is obviously a talented police officer - he knew what he was doing from day one including seeing the potential in the rookie he appointed to lead the investigation. Well done chief fry and your team.
You definitely have to be a patient person in order to answer so many stupid questions asked by the media.
Fr.....and even with a smile....
The stress this man has been through must have been horrific 🥹
Nothing compared to the stress to the families and friends of the victims...
@@vc5385 only you compared
@@vc5385 I think that goes without saying. He still received a LOT of unfair criticism from both media and the public.
I agree, not just for this case being suddenly tossed on him, having to make sure his town feels safe, going from small college town chief, to having the whole world looking to him for answers, it truly had to be stressful, and still must be.
@@vc5385 It's so unproductive to compare stress level to the victims' families, in that case, you can also say there are people who experience far worst things than the victims' families, therefore invalidating their pain and suffering merely because other folks in the world have dealt with more hardship
I feel for this guy. He got a lot of abuse from people thinking things should happen straight away and he could actually tell everyone exactly what’s going on. Seems like a lovely guy.
Most cops are good people
He sure did. The internet really showed their ass with this one. So frustrating. I just stopped participating in discourse within the first week. "Internet sleuths" think they know better than trained LEO.
@@Lonesome__Dove I don’t comment much on the internet sleuths posts due to just exactly what you said. Thank you for saying what I was going to! ❤
Really bothered me that even big crime channels like law and crime side bar were talking about how the neighbor chef was suspicious because he used the word like a lot and got everyone in the comments thinking he was the guy who did it. Same with other people
@@Lonesome__Dove Agreed. It became such a frenzy of nothing but out of control speculation, I stopped engaging in any discussions either. Decided to wait until they arrested someone to look into it again.
Can you imagine how hard this case must have been with SOOO many people being in and out of this house and the busy lives the victims led. This man deserves so much respect! He is a gem of a man💯🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽♥️
This man represented the very best of his profession and for Idaho.
He didn’t deserve all the unnecessary criticism. People are so impatient. He stayed calm and focused and professional. Well done Chief Fry and staff. Happy New year to you and yours.
So many people demanding to always be informed about the newest in a OPEN INVESTIGATION. 🤦🏻♀️ Why do these people not understand that LE can’t just spread the information they have on a OPEN investigation? I felt so sorry for Chief Fry and his team with all these people and even some of the parents of the victims blaming them they are not doing a good job. I wish Chief Fry and his team all the best!
Kudos to this man. He took heat, criticism and anger from many people. He stood firm and did what he was supposed to do by revealing as little and as much as law enforcement saw fit. This case is crazy to say the least and I think there may be another twist or turn ahead here. RIP to the four young people who were murdered. 🇨🇦
I never doubt in my mind, that the murder would go unsolved..When police get a lead they would follow that lead, even if they had to go down, into the pit of hell, for justice for the families👌
I have noticed this Moscow police chief looks very happy. God Bless him 🙏
Except the Female Idaho Professor hired this killer because Kaylee was sleeping with her husband.
-COMANCHE NATION
@@thechiefwildhorse4651 oh my
I agree I think that pos Bryan has something up his sleeve
This is a very bitter sweet moment. Been watching this case from Ireland. So happy this guy got caught. RIP to the victims and sending prayers and love to the families. Well done to all involved in catching this monster.
I saw him smiling a day before the announcement and I thought, this is the first time I’ve seen him smile. Now I know why 🙏🏻👍🏻
My dad said the same exact thing!
Nothing rattles this man. He is a true professional and an inspirational officer of the law. I hope some day he will be able to tell us all the story of the investigation and what went on behind the scenes.
Yup!
He is!!! It’s been a horrible 7 months , and during the Holidays of all time?? That’s a real hardship he had to endure .
yes! a book! i would read it
@@gabrielamartiniuc6322 Seven months?
Absolutely awesome chief big props to him!!! Proud of this outcome that he got a suspect.
This officer has a beautiful aura about him ,it comes from his goodness...this is why everyone seems to think hr is always smiling! Keep your smile James Fry!
💯
I can see the kindness in the police chief's eyes as well as the sadness when he was asked if he felt the same way about feeling like he is fighting for these kids because they could have very well been his own children. I am happy to hear that the officers, investigators, their families and even the chief have the opportunity to receive mental help from dealing with this case. I cannot imagine what they have had to go through and see at that crime scene. I know we all wanted quick answers, but they made a great call bringing the FBI in as well as leading such a complex investigation as a small-town police department. I continue to pray for the friends and family of the victims (including the 2 surviving girls) the police/FBI and anyone who has had to see this horrible scene and work the case, and most of all Xana, Ethan, Kaylee and Maddie. I hope he acted alone and if he didn't anyone else who is involved is caught.
I refuse to use his name because most murderers want their name out there and want fame, attention, and want to be infamous for their crimes.
I wholehearted agree. Praying for strength and justice for all involved.
Side note I also pray for this piece of shi*'s Family for now. Unless it comes out they knew and hid him or had a feeling and did nothing. Ultimately I am pretty sure not EVERYONE in his family knew so I send them prayers and strength. Not only did he destroy 4 families but his own as well. I can't imagine someone in my family being home for the holidays then finding out they committed something so evil. He seems like he can act like a chameleon going to class as nothing happened. I think he targeted these students for being happy, pretty/handsome and popular, something he wanted and wasn't able to achieve. I also think based on the reddit survey post he looked at this as a fuc**** up experiment.
@@franniebear777 I saw that his sister works as a mental health professional in New Jersey. They might have lived apart for years but that would be overwhelming to deal with now that they know their brother/relative is accused of these horrific murders. I know this because I have a family member who was involved in an horrific murder decades ago and the personal horror that I feel on behalf of the victim has never gone away and I have nothing to do with the family member who was found guilty, incarcerated for years and has since been released, I believe but not sure what happened to him.
A humble man from what I see different to the Delphi investigators.
This comment is incredibly well put. Thank you for having a brain, and compassion ❤
I can’t imagine what those officers go through during a case like this. The chief seems like a kind soul and has to be so relieved to be able to say they did they’re job well and in doing so resulted in finding their suspect. The pressure they were under must have been so intense say nothing about the trauma suffered from what they saw. Good job to all the LE involved in this case! Thank you for what you do! 👏👏🙏🙏
Chief Fry is an amazing human being. He looks alot lighter in the interview because of the weight off his shoulders since the arrest. He also realizes the arrest is the beginning. The conviction is the goal. Hold that info tight so there is no loophole. But he also cares about his officers and their families, taking measures to be sure the horrors attached to this case don't hold them down forever. Excellent interview. High quality human being.
Amazing? That’s a stretch Margaret, this clown James fry hasn’t don’t anything but talk to the media, FBI did all the work.
@@buttdreads bless your heart. Have a beautiful 2023
@@margarethutchens5463 I mean I’m just saying
Not called fry for nothing
@@buttdreadsi mean did you just pull that out your ass or do you know/work with this guy
He genuinely seems like an amazing human. RIP to the 4 innocent victims. So glad they found the suspect.
You can see his heart and soul and purity right in his eyes. Chief Frye is a very special man. And Moscow is so lucky to have him as their Police Chief.
It is just an act. Deep down he doesn't care. He is a criminal himself. All police chiefs are criminals. That is how this crooked and corrupt system works, with criminals running everything from the top down.
He's a pig he's not an amazing human
You should be thanking the FBI because they did all the work
@@thebeasters Yeah, but the FBI is also a criminal organization run by criminals as well.
Wtf did he do? This idiot doesn't know anything and acting as if he's keeping the info confidential. He ordered the house/crime scene to be cleaned, wtf? It was the FBI who caught the killer and the court ordered to hold on the clean up. So basically him and his department was cluless. He's just a sloby police cheif who didn't even know that they were gonna close in on the murderer the very next day. Pathetic
You can just tell he is such a kind, well mannered soul. Bless everyone that's going through this horrible crime. So so sad.
I thought he was a great guy from the beginning and you can see it he's just a wonderful man. Too bad we don't have more like him in law enforcement.
My father was a police officer, and I believe there are more"good" cops with integrity, empathy, intelligence and professionalism, than "bad," reactionary ones.
Chief looks much less stressed.
I just said the same thing to my husband. God Bless all those who worked on this Case. Happy New Year.
Looks like a different person ❤️✌🏼
This case just made his career
All of us feel less stressed!
He said he got the call on Sunday his day off about 4 murders and he asked twice cause he didn't believe it.
This guy deserves a lot of credit. I’m far from a cop groupie but I gotta give it to him. Same goes for the loved ones of the deceased… nobody knows their inner torture unless they’ve been through it. And, of course, May these beautiful souls that lost their lives rest.
Without the fbi and isp Moscow pd would have been sunk. The only thing this guy did was call people who knew what they were doing.
@@hellfire666.5 this is very common for PDs that don’t have the resources for such crimes. Delphi did the same thing. Everybody plays their part to bring justice to the victims. There are good and bad officers and he did what he had to do to make progress to solve this crime.
@D I understand that. But to say he deserves a lot of credit is where I disagree. All he did was realize he was in over his head and called the right people. Honorable, yes worthy of praise and a lot credit? I personally don't think so. Overall, the feds and state police have done a great job collectively.
@@hellfire666.5 fair enough. I just believe that’s what the FBI is there for. A lot of cases need extra help. I do see what you’re saying though. Thank you for being reasonable in your responses and have a happy new year. All the best to you.
@@Callofthevoid3 happy new year! Hope is a good one!
Wow I absolutely love this guy, a real gentleman. Focused, yet humble and calm. Got the FBI in asap. He wasn't territorial. Wasn't ego driven, asked and is still asking people to call in with any tips and leads. For him, this case is not about him, its about justice for the victims and their families. His wife, children and community should be very very proud of him. Its beautiful to hear him speak so highly of the relationship with his wife. Really a stand up guy.
Edit: Really good to see all the positive comments and that people picked up on his warm personality.
The other day when CO James Fry announced about having the house cleaned I knew they had their suspect. When he spoke, I could see the relief in his face. Well done to each and everyone that was involved in finding the perpetrator. 👏👏👏
POLICE CHIEF, JAMES FRY,MY HIGHEST RESPECT FOR YOU. AND YOU'RE A GOOD MAN.EXCELLENT JOB!!!👏🙏😀
Yes I agree, however the job is far from complete. They need to be very diligent and hand the prosecution everything they need without any missteps that can be used to get this guy off at trial. Wishing them continued success!
What a class act! So impressed by the Chief and his department and all involved DOING IT RIGHT. Prayers for healing for EVERYONE in Moscow…including all the families and loved ones of the young victims…who will never be forgotten and who have touched the world by their presence.❤❤❤❤
what a beautiful warm and genuine human being. a great role model. i have a lot of respect for him and knew he would lead his LEOs to an arrest. well done, Chief Fry. you’re one of the good guys.
He is proof we always need to give LE space and time to do what they need to do in their quest to solve the case. He continues to be gracious in trying to answer as many questions as legally possible. As a LE agency, they should be proud in the hard work they've done, because this really wasn't that much time between yesterday and Nov.13th.
Space and time are great, assuming they’re really doing their jobs. These guys happened to be doing well, but for example, the cops in the Jonbenet Ramsey case were inexperienced, flubbed it, and continue to prevent the solving of that case. They have dna from the intruder that could be tested against genealogy databases, but refuse to release it for comparison. They don’t always know what they’re doing, and they don’t always “keep things close to the vest” for the best of reasons. The police need reasonable time and space because crimes certainly don’t get solved in an instant like a tv show, but there are times some pressure is appropriate. This happened not to be one of them
It is SO heartwarming to see this man smile!
I saw so many people degrading this police department and honestly I was losing faith in them myself. It ashamed to admit it but I was. I wanted these poor families to have answers so badly and some type of closure. I know these men and women always know a lot more than we do. They are always working on these cases and they’re amazing at what they do. I love this police chief because of how humble he seems to be. I feel he truly cares about these young people. God bless him and others out there doing these difficult jobs.
they started destroying the crime scene... thats ridiculous!!! ONLY when the court stopped them they pulled disaster relief out... i personally know a retired 33 year vet in homicide/major crimes and he is blown away they did that... if they destroyed the only evidence they have (DNA) then they might have completely screwed themselves... and again not from me thats from someone who really knows his stuff and hes fuming at the incompetence... so don't start praising them yet... i am hard on them because the country is going to be in flames if they blow this case and women are going to be in serious danger
He looks more relaxed and healthy again. What a toll this must be on the police, family and neighbors. I can' t imagine the tears and stress.💔
God bless you all .
Thank you for admitting that. Its humility that grows us as humans. Great work. Bravo!
@@erin4321 you’re my kind of person. I appreciate your kindness.
I understood because my sister’s alleged killer is going to trial for a 1974 murder of a seventeen year old girl. He was charged three years ago on January 6th. It will be a long process for Kohberger too. It will take a long time and immense patience, unless he confesses.
Law enforcement did an amazing job thanks, in large part, to this man. This case was solved quickly and I hope everyone who worked on this case knows how grateful the world is for their hard work and dedication to bringing justice to the victims and their families. You guys are amazing!
Fry could not have done it without the state police and the FBI. FBI did more work.
I think Chief Fry deserves a lot more credit than he's been given, It is obvious how emotionally invested he is in all this, LE in the scope of doing their jobs seeing things that would throw most of us over the edge. I pray that when all this has come to an end they find peace and know how much they are truly appreciated.
You can just see the stress lifted on his face. I can’t imagine how horrific and stressful this has been day after day. Good work! You are appreciated Chief Fry!
This guy just comes ascross as incredibly kind and compassionate.
More importantly he was full of class and refused to be bullied, despite the ugly treatment he received during the last several weeks.
This country would truly be blessed if every law enforcement agency across this nation had a man like this Police Chief at the helm. A man who genuinely cares, is also professional, has integrity & honor, and is dedicated to justice. It is more than a job... it's a calling. He and some others I can think of are the epitome of what law enforcement should be across the board. And it always starts at the top. Want to clean up law enforcement agencies? Put men like this in charge and let them run it as they see fit without tying their hands. Also pass a law making it illegal for police unions to force them to re-hire bad cops over and over again (a big problem in every state with a police union), thereby making it impossible for good leaders to get rid of bad or unfit cops and clean up their departments. Just by doing these two things, we'd see massive changes across the board in law enforcement and public sentiment. Over time they'd begin to win back the public's trust, respect and support once again.
This guys seems very genuine. Has a good soul. He has never played for media attention or been discouraged by the haters. I really thought the case was going cold. Great job LE
Not releasing 911 call has nothing to do with Bryan and EVERYTHING to do with the roommates.
Chief is such a stand up guy. So proud of the professionalism out of all law enforcement involved. They have taken a lot of flack and pressure from the media and the public… excellent job!
There should be a Chief like James Fry in every police department in this country. This man you can tell is a genuine guy that cares about his family, his community and the citizens he swore to protect upon becoming a police officer. I salute you Chief for a job well done. May God Bless You and your Family.
God BLESS Chief Fry AND his entire department ❤🎉 Glory Hallelujah the EVIL 👿 “suspect” is in custody!!
Yes,This Man Is aTRUE "PEACE OFFICER" .
James Fry. You deserve the utmost credit. You got attacked left and right by everyone throughout this investigation as you had to hold details back in order for this ending. You and the department deserve the most kudos. Id be honored as well to have you as our chief.
So happy he is the Chief in this investigation. He has seen things none of us have and he isn't going to do anything that is going to jeopardize the case and leave the possibility of this monster to walk among us again. I appreciate him and all of the men and women who have worked so hard on this. I hope they, as well as the families can heal moving forward.
This man is literally so sweet and you can tell bless his heart
Really? Lol
They really did an exemplary job. Bringing in counselling for even the families of the officers so that each had the opportunity to process all the stresses and grief of the daily situation they all faced… Every officer would be so lucky to have such a Chief. A very smart, kind and loving man. Well done ❤
Yes the violent nature of the scene was horriffic.That alone would be disturbing.
Ya I like that fr cus there is no way that LE went home and didn’t speak on what they had seen.
I hated all the clueless people attacking him and his force. Of course he couldn’t talk about it. Just like now, lol!
What a fantastic police chief James Fry is. Under so much scrutiny throughout this case. I love the fact that is face has softened and he is looking so much stronger and relieved. Great Police work, Congratulations. Cannot stop thinking of the four murdered victims and their families and friends. Plus also the survivors, friends of the survivors just a massive mess of sadness all around. Following closely from Australia.
I doubt this Man ever thought he'd come across anything like this in his career. Well done, Sir.
This chief sets an example of the standard that more in the field should work toward reaching. I cannot begin to imagine the weight this Chief and his subordinates have felt over the past 6 weeks. I'm so glad to know they are closer to justice for these kids and their families.
Many thanks to this police chief and all the law enforcement working this case. My heart aches for all the families and friends of Ethan, Xana, Maddie, and Kaylee. I can't imagine your pain, but may God's love surround you all and give you peace 🕊🙏❣
This was an incredible interview. Kudos to Chief James Fry, the Moscow PD, Idaho State PD, and the FBI for working together to ensure that justice is served for Kaylee, Maddie, Xana, and Ethan. My thoughts and prayers are with their families and loved ones, as well as the entire community, and all those that have been affected by their lives being so heinously and ruthlessly taken from them far too soon.
Chief Fry has such an emotional and close relationship to this case. This is a huge case in that area, one they never had to face as severe as this. The Chief has always had such a cherry disposition to him. He's just a kind and loving man. This case has forever changed his whole life, I can say that with the upmost faith.
The expression is _*utmost_ faith."
Chief Fry has so much integrity, character, competence, and heart❤
This Chief has done (and continues to do) his job at keeping quiet when he should be … I find that very impressive.

This chief is solid as a rock. Amazing character and resilience under the pressure from the media.
He has kind eyes. He reminds me of my father .. He's done such a wonderful job. Well done to them all. Watching from over here in Australia 🇦🇺
outstanding job to all law enforcement agencies on capturing this animal.. chief fry, and Moscow pd. great job 👏
Lycanthropy
Why the insult against animals? And why compliment any murderer by referring to them as an _animal?_ Such a regal title for such scum.
Now that the monster is caught
I will tell you who foots the bills floor the property the land lord. I know because I have all the financial burden of the property I own. People want to get the price down to nothing. They want every repair done it's hardly even worth trying to sell
@@leahcasell1487 - I was thinking that the owner has now to face pretty stiff financial loses, rent income, removing floors that cannot just be cleaned. I doubt that house will be rented soon. It would be better to demolish. The ground needs to be blessed. Too much suffering and evil imprinted.
He’s a class act. We can all take something and learn from this man’s character and ethics. Nice work James Fry and all those that worked on this case. We all thank you.
Absolutely!
Class act indeed!! he's the definition.
Wow as I looked through all of these comments I am so impressed. I agree with all of you guys. This man is amazing. I hope that he reads these comments
What a great man. I have so much respect for this gentleman and all his team Bravo. Thank you for all the hard work was put in to find this suspect.
Applauding all LE agencies who fight for justice on the behalf of victims and their families. Rising ovation for Chief Fry for not wavering under the pressure of the case and the scrutiny of the public that doubted him. I loved his character, the natural feature of his smile and when he made it quite clear at one point this was MPD case and He was the Lead, the responsibility of decisions ultimately his. ISP Wills gave him a well deserved acknowledgement of Praise and Thanks 💙
Great comment!
That is the kind of guy that we need as head of the FBI, or DIJ.
Class act
🥂
AGREED! Chief Fry seems to be a man of much Grace and Love. I'm sure he understood when the Hurting were struggling and he demonstrated poise and strength. It's not often that outsiders get to see the emotion behind the countenance and I couldn't imagine Moscow having a better Police Department! Praying that GOD continue to pour out His Grace, Hope, Comfort, Justice, Healing and Peace on this entire community and the families of those innocent children. I already see so much GRACE in this entire community. Seems like a beautiful place to live. Praying always in Jesus name.
I am very impressed by the entire team that made this happen and this man has since the very beginning been SO professional, it's almost like we don't see that anymore, hence the public outrage. This man stood strong. What a great person. And you can tell he's got some weight off his shoulders, well deserved, and great interview.
Big hugs❤so proud of you guys ❤
I have a lot of respect for the chief you can tell that this is affecting him a lot. And this doesn’t happen in a small town where they’re at like this. I think they’ve done a wonderful job at bringing the killer to justice and we will get justice for the Idaho 4
Amazing job Chief. Any town in this country would be proud to have you lead. Class through and through
He deserves a lot of respect. And it's critical for everyone involved to be patient and *quiet*. Let them build a solid case without leaking anything.
How all those who threw shade at the Moscow LE must be feeling a moment of shame right now
Tik Tok idiots have no shame.
until the psycho walks because they started crime scene clean up and destroyed the only evidence they have... until a damn court order stopped him... i know a retired 33 year vet in homicide that is literally blown away they might have botched this case... if this guy walks then everyone will be back from blaming... to praising... then blaming... nobody can stick to their beliefs... look at the comments same people bashing them is now typing comments like yours... bunch of parrots around here... "polly want a cracker" ffs
This police chief is a perfect example of grace under pressure. It is incomprehensible to think about what these officers witnessed in that house! You cannot unsee what you have seen! But to be able to put your personal emotions, outrage, sadness, etc… aside and do an exemplary job while being constantly criticized and scrutinized by the public is no easy fete! But this man and this police department did this! I commend and congratulate you all and I just thank you for an outstanding job! God bless you all !
Well said!
I love this man. He was literally the best man for this job. I always felt this man knew exactly what he was doing. Well done Chief Fry and the rest of moscow police department
Great job Idaho law enforcement!!!!
I’m beyond happy that James Fry has a GREAT reason to smile! ❤Thank you sir and I NEVER doubted you! I defended you all this WHOLE time and ALWAYS will! You’re amazing, your team, and others! I’m truly sorry people have been so cruel to you that your voice breaks in pain! God bless you sir! Even when you say, “I need everyone from the news to the public to STOP 🛑 putting everything out there.” It’s sad how in this interview he’s STILL begging for PATIENCE! So why the f**k is it that hard for EVERYONE to respect a man TRYING to repeatedly keep as much close to them so the KILLER(S) TO BE CHARGED, HELD, AND WITHOUT A SHADOW OF DOUBT CONVICTED, NO WIN ON APPEAL, AND NO RIGHTS BROKEN! If this was anyone’s child you would DEMAND the public to respect this man and these agencies to NOT give the killer a GET OUT OF FREE PASS! I PRAY no one ruined that! I PRAY no one ruined it even with some of those families doing their Tell alls that they BEGGED THEM to stop doing until FINALLY even they had to keep some of the families in the dark more! That’s sad! START RESPECTING THEM! You’re citizens NOT involved on this case! You’re nothing to them but the NOSEY PUBLIC INVADING THEM ALL IN TRYING TO CATCH KILLERS AND HOLD THEM FOR LIFE/DEA**! Shameful! Thank you again sir for doing your best with the EVILS of this world coming at you all! Saddens me what happened to you all! 🙏
Well said!
Nice to see people praise the chief. He nailed it.
@@kerijin refreshing to hear honesty and an open mind on the internet. Good for you ;)
Idaho is lucky to have this man in our State!!
Chief Fry for Governor..
we should be so lucky!
@@kerijin thanks and happy new year to you as well. You were really honest admitting that it took some time to change your mind but you finally did so. Also great for not attacking him personally. You set a great example for others to follow. I will make sure I keep any of my comments to be more like yours ;)
This man has such a genuine face it makes you cry. Thank you for your kindness chief 🙂
What an amazing job this man and his team has done you can tell he is very confident in this interview they got the person who did this prayers to the family and all involved
He handled it like a gentleman.
I can see the pain in this good human being.GOD blessed him and all the law enforcement.🙏🏼🙏🏼
this god lady blessed ALL law enforcement? even the bad eggs?
maybe this so called 'god' oughtta rethink that, and hold the bad ones accountable.
Religious people don't appreciate logic, best to let them be..
I have such a soft spot for this chief. My heart is still broken over this case and for the families, so tragic
I do too. He is top notch.
I tip my hat to this police agency and this Chief for holding firm in protecting the investigation despite public outcry. And my heart goes out to all those dealing with the intense pain caused by one man.
Thank you to this amazing man. I pray the families will find peace in knowing the monster is gone.
I tend to turn a critical eye to law enforcement most times (Greater power/authority means you're held to a higher standard imo) but This department and this investigation is exactly what we should always see across the board. There is no galvanizing the audience to convince us of the suspect's guilt there is no grandstanding or machismo. This chief is outstanding. Even if there's more evidence to come to light that shows maybe there's another suspect or anything like that this guy has been an excellent leader.
we need more people like Chief James Fry in law enforcement. Intelligent, thorough and level-headed enough to deal with today’s crazy media frenzied landscape. 🏆🏆🏆
I really like him he comes across as a very professional and caring individual,God bless him always .
Well done chief Fry and fellow officers 👏🏼
This police officer shows such intelligence and care!
Funny how comments suddenly see this man as genuine, professional, and likable, but until last week, everyone was calling the whole department incompetent.
Chief Fry, you are the example of a true leader 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I could go on and on and give you praise step by step for the way you handled this investigation, pressures from the families and public...I will just leave it at this: I hope and pray that many in LE take from your example and lead the way you did🙏
All the best to you, your family and your team as well as the ones working with you on this case ❣️
So much respect for Chief Fry and the entire Moscow LE team. Truly incredible work🤍
Chief James Fry is such a good man and Chief so proud of your! I always had my faith in you .
He is corrupt, all of our doubts came true
Wow, Chief Fry just set the Gold Standard for all PDs! 💯
Hearty congratulations to the Moscow police, Idaho State forces, the FBI, and everybody associated with arresting this man.
You're full of bootlicking. The kudos should go to the gas station clerk who took the time and common sense brains to do the police's work. And the rest of the kudos go to the public with their tips. And the case is nowhere near over. Burl Ives, the police chief, is preparing himself for a book deal.
@@dognatious6153 Get over yourself
@@dognatious6153 still posting derogatory comments. 🤮
@@dognatious6153 and yet you couldn't find the dude if you had 7x the funding
dog, You're full of shit to believe law enforcement didn't have a ton of video and other sorts of evidence independent of stuff that came after from the public and tips.
Glad, they found him.
I'd like to know why they were in such a hurry to clean up evidence.
I praise all the people who worked hard over the holidays to bring justice. All those days and hours sacrificed away from family and friends all helped to solve this case.
