"The following footage has never been seem before"
Fuck yeah
My favorite quote
She dated a black guy i have no sympathy for her
The girl was a mudshark
Look who she was in a relationship with haha zero sympathy
that was the reason for instant sub to EWU years ago xD
the way he cried and dragging himself all over the interrogation room and the cops sat there looking at him like "😐"
I felt bad for laughing because the whole time he was doing that I’m like I bet the cops think he’s nuts 😂
fontae: pushing the table and kicking his feet like a toddler
cops: 😑
33:14 i feel bad for laughing when the detective just continues writing on his notepad like "...so anyways" and the number of times the editors had to fastfoward through his tantrum 💀
They had no idea what to do. Lol 😂
I feel bad but literally how I felt working in prek and kindergarten, watching the kids after switching from their favorite activity!
"SOMEONES BEEN STABBED" and then basically "sir watch your tone" what an interaction
She was terrible
Worst dispatcher I ever heard
Worst dispatcher I’ve ever heard!! Like broooo do u know what job you applied for?! 😅🤣
@@koenignero you must be new around here
@@banbpablo so alpha for saying that !😮
In my opinion, there's enough reasonable doubt to find him innocent.
With the limited information presented here & your conclusions, I think you would make a poor jurist. I've done jury duty several times & believe me one should hear & understand every scrape of information before judging a case. But I understand how these shows play on our emotions through design to lead us to the content creators very own conclusions of innocence or guilt.
@@scottyfox6376well none of us were there, and going purely based on what this video shows, I think reasonable doubt is appropriate. Granted, there may have been facts that were occluded from the video that may change my mind, I don't think I could convict him.
Not guilty
@@scottyfox6376 I mean what happened with the juror that got kicked out, and also the jury being so hostile towards anyone thinking about saying he was innocent is massively suspicious.
@@scottyfox6376 you have the same limited information lmao 🤡
i know this has literally nothing to do with this case, but i cannot emphasize enough how extremely helpful it is that y’all have subtitles. CC can be difficult and inaccurate on a lot of these kinds of interrogation videos, and i know whoever added captions to this spent hours doing so. just know that us “hard of hearing” folks appreciate this IMMENSELY. great work!!
Amen to that. It's that bit of extra work that sets EWU above a lot of the other channels.
The captions are AI, big man
@@LILREMAlNS Nah. you can see other channels that use AI to generate subs and they are awful. maybe they use AI to generate subs but it is very clear that they have a human at least proofreading them.
*YOU GUYS
i don’t even have hearing issues and CC is still helpful for so many reasons. who cares if they are made with some initial AI assistance, i know for a fact that auto-CC software gets it wrong all the time and the audio on these is often Rough. there is definitely significant human labour that goes into correcting the machine outputs, captioning the bits that software simply can’t handle, etc. and using AI to get some of the baseline work done is just being efficient at this point.
The fact that he instantly calmed down after he thought she was still alive- instead of freaking out or becoming worried- says all you need to know.
what do you mean?
@@bolerpear967 if he did it he would be worried if she’s alive and could out him, instead he was calm. When he found out the truth of her passing … 1. That’s must have hurt him even if he wanted nothing to do w her there’s probably still good memories and attachment . 2. She’s not alive to defend him and clarify that she did it as the only witness with him.
@@SN-32 yeah, that really sucks :/
@@bolerpear967because he would have been scared of her being alive if he committed the crime for her to be like he stabbed me instead he was more calm and relaxed when they lied to him and said she was alive and doing good a guilty person would have been nervous and scared
Your comment also tell us everything we need to know about you 😂
He calmed down and started speaking freely when he thought she survived.
I can almost guarantee that based on the way he was acting when he thought she survived vs how be acted when he found out she died, this fkn man is innocent..
I’ve been studying psychology for over 15 years and would be willing to bet my life on it.
Also the fact that he talked to EWU on the record... guilty people usually stay quiet... but he's believable
What are your qualifications?
I second that motion
Bet your life on a 1hour video of a series of clips. Studying psychology for 15years 😂😂😂 😂😂
Well, for one, he probably at least knows how to use "you're" in the proper context. @SirBonsley
Why did they give that trial to the SAME JUDGE??? That should be illegal, insane!
The new jury still found him guilty. And the next one will too, if there's another one. He did it. His friends are crying that they didn't investigate anyone but him. Lol, there's no one else . It's him and her. He's the only on able to be looked at. He knows he did it.
@@kenw2225 We found one. One of the people who blindly follows the justice system
It's called a "criminal justice system" for a reason.
@@kenw2225 stop being a bootlicking loser lol.
@@rileyedwards4212 lol because he was guilty...
If you ever start breaking down like that while being questioned by the police and they just stare at you wordlessly, you’re going to jail
FASHO
😂
I gotta say the above comment has me upset. A few people, specifically women said he's "acting like an immature child" when the police told him his GF is dead.
I think a lot of women start off believing the man is always guilty. And any hysteria or throes or despair over the loss of his significant other they believe is a well thought out display meant to convince police of his innocence.
If that's the case, it's not "being childish and immature".
@@SubvertTheStateDude, the guy broke down like an ace attorney witness after being caught lying in their testimony tf you mean
@@bonebag1961I agree wholeheartedly. What a weird paragraph 🙃😅
I believe him. The difference between when he was told she was ok and when he was informed of her death speaks volumes! That alone, *screams* reasonable doubt.
He got shafted.. he didn't handle himself well, but there is no "correct way" to act in such a chaotic and devastating situation.
If you behave well then you get painted as being uncaring and cold.
911 operators would get a lot further ahead if they'd tell the caller, "ive routed help your way...while you're waiting i need to ask more questions to possibly assist you, the victim and police/EMS."
Yes!! Imagine if it were someone suicidal & god forbid yelling in distress 😳
THANK YOU! The attitude of that operator had my blood boiling.
Exactly !
1000% I've heard countless 911 recordings where the caller is freaking out because they feel like they have to answer endless asinine questions before being granted help. Hell, i've been in the same situation myself
No. Most operators assume the callers have common sense but unfortunately that's not the case as we can clearly see here.
After watching about 100 of these videos of guilty people, I completely believe this is the behavior of an innocent man. He loses his mind at the 911 operator begging them to come and then he's absolutely ELATED that she is alive, during the first part of the interview you can see what a good mood he's in. He knew that her being alive would clear him. Then when informed she was dead he had the appropriate utter shock, almost disbelief, then it turned to him being emotionally devastated. After he broke down, and quickly switched to rage that he had been purposely, deceitfully, led to believe she was OK. He has the outrage of someone who is being falsely accused. He clearly has a problem controlling his emotions but nobody is this good of an actor.
I just got on here to see if anyone else felt this way. I honestly don’t think he did it.
100% same
Totally agree. He was devastated that she’d died, a guilty person wouldn’t act like that.
@@user-cn3si5um7kthat’s not true. Murderers can feel sad about killing someone. They can do it in a manic episode and only fully quantify the situation
Exactly, specially the first part. He was not anxious about her surviving, not a bit. He *knew* she would have cleared it up.
A guilty man wouldn't have acted like he did. I hope he sues the system. That judge is awful.
You don't think he didn't know that too? What gave me pause is when he was asking the cops if she was ok? Then after they said yes, he was like "wow..are you sure?...it was bad.." I think then, he was already plotting 'I'm just gonna have to deny this till the end' Then when they told him, it was all part of his act... to me anyway 🤷♀️
How does a guilty man act???
This judge's behavior is alarming. I sincerely hope this man gets a fair trial someday.
Giving the second trial to the same allegedly corrupt judge is insane to me.
A judge made a mistake at my dad's trial, but he's the same one that gets to deny all of his motions trying to raise the issues. The justice system is so broken.
Right?? It's illogical to have the same judge for a retrial period. You wouldn't have an identical jury, right? Absolutely corrupt.
I think the innocence project should look into thisc case. Also looks like the Judge is corrupt
@sharonzilinskas1214 as far as I'm aware, the innocence project only takes cases with exonerating DNA evidence, but things could have changed since I reached out. It's possible, if the knife is still available for testing, that they may be willing to pick up his case.
They know the judge will just rubber stamp Guilty no matter what, it's fucked up these judges won't remove themselves no matter what it's pride they are so corrupt it's sickening they have a story even if they know you are innocent they find you guilty
This is the first case on this channel where I don't think he killed her.
I feel the same way. Reasonable doubt is a thing, and there was a lot of that.
same
I agree
@@Mike-wu7ie all of that should’ve been taken into consideration, they completely mishandled his case and just wanted him to be guilty no matter what. Which isn’t justice at all, it’s just the American Justice System.
@@Mike-wu7ie that’s a good point
How can u have a judge twice ??? thats not JUSTICE at all......
Justice doesn't exist here in America.
I was thinking the same exact thing especially when all this with the juror coming forward said
This about this judge! I hope she gets her karma! I don’t know if he is innocent or not; this justice system is so corrupt!
Judges don’t have bosses. And guess what they don’t have to obey the rules of law either. They can sit on their bench and disregard the law. Much losses
@@cdh_rjml5845 i do agree with u so so much about the KARMA part ..you were thinking what i was thinking
Investigators seemed to be more interested in pinning this on him than actually figuring out what happened from a non biased POV.
The way they informed him of her death was so cruel. You can tell they thought he did it
they're cops...
Because he did it. His story didn’t match the evidence.
@@roninkraut6873yeah because they would never make the evidence fit what they want. Get a clue bud
That corrupt judge should be on trial for jury tampering.
Yes she should! My
Sister Mara is one of
His best friends ! She went to that trial! She stayed at my apartment when he came to Des Moines! The. Dishwasher was dented from her and her boyfriend at the time when they previously lived there! I deep do own in my heart know this man is innocent . Monica ackley is an INSANE PERSON
@@smilethroughlife5537 We need to actually set something in motion about this!
All her cases should be reviewed
There were a lot of red flags in this case but the biggest one for me was that your request for the autopsy report was denied. What do they have to hide?
Especially on a “closed” case. If the investigation was still ongoing it would be understandable, but denied at this point? That’s downright criminal.
@@JoshLathamTutorials I bet that corrupt judge sealed it.
Every state has their own laws about it but an autopsy report is considered to be a confidential health record (HIPPA.) If you’re a close family member you may be able to get a copy. The family has to provide written permission for the hospital to release it to anyone.
Edit: I’m not sure how this is applied if it’s part of a major crime. But it makes sense they’re not going to release it to just anyone.
@@christinaoh7022not true. It’s still all subject to a Freedon of Information Act.
@@Scrapienzaa quick google search shows that autopsies fall under HIPPA protections up to 50 years after the persons death
Moral of the story: install a camera in every room
Do the jurors not know what "reasonable doubt means"? Just the interview footage (his relief at her being alive, sadness at her actually being dead, and then anger that he was lied to and falsely accused), and the lack of blood on him are enough for a reasonable person to doubt it happened.
No they just know racism
The town's mob got to them
Important safety tip: If the label on your meds says "don't drink alcohol", then don't drink alcohol.... and don't drive a bulldozer or anything.
When the label says "do not operate heavy machinery under the influence of this drug", I know they mean vehicles, but my mind always goes to forklifts and bulldozers
Exactly, he’s innocent
And if they didn't hear about her mental health, they didn't hear about this aspect...
Drug interactions: Yeah alcohol is a drug, lots of people forget that. Doesn’t mix well with a lot of things.
Don’t drive: Depends on the meds & depends on you. Some meds can make you lightheaded or loopy or whatever & you shouldn’t drive, but that may not happen (not all side effects hit everyone equally), it may happen but only for a week or so until you get used to the drug, or it may be that the entire time you’re on that medication you have the issue. The warning is there to tell you what you need to watch out for.
And yes, you can get a DUI for driving while impaired even if the impairment is due to medications taken as prescribed. Generally they only do that if you cause an accident, though.
Don't drink alcohol and drive the bulldozer? Man you can't have any fun on a jobsite.
How the F can the Supreme Court say “yes the first trial was done poorly” and then go and have the SAME judge do the second trial - that makes no sense at all - do they only have one judge, why in gods name wouldn’t a different judge be assigned to the second trial
The reason why it was retried was because the judge ruled that the victim would not be on trial, as the defense wanted to just purely attack her instead of proving him not guilty. She disallowed it, and the appeals court found it to be the wrong decision in this specific case, but that the trial was otherwise fine (and the decision normally sound).
So the second trial occured with him being allowed to impeach her character as much as he wanted. The juror stuff that EWU focused on is something I haven't ever seen brought up anywhere else.
What the juror brought up was the talk of the town. It was absolutely wild when that came out.
@@user-oc8is1ed1g Weird that nobody brought it up with the clearly sympathetic Supreme Court, then. I can buy that there might be enough reasonable doubt to not convict, but I don't really buy that juror's claims, especially if they couldn't even be bothered to help Fontae with a slam-dunk appeal.
@@Neremworld there are a lot of rules within the court system. If I’m remembering correctly, they did try to get the juror as a witness, but it wasn’t allowed.
@@user-oc8is1ed1g Well you'd want to make the accusation in an appeal. Trying to get a juror as a witness in a trial is basically a no-go even if the judge wanted to for some reason.
This man was absolutely innocent horrible what the Judge did to him. Despicable 😡
Just WOW , whenever there’s an update to this case please immediately update us .
This judge needs investigated sacked and charged
All his fam think he is innocent... He never committed no crimes in his life. He was a amazing student and football player. Most respectable young man in the family that I ever met. This is crazy. He been in a long time if he is innocent. His mom passed from breast cancer while he was incarcerated last year. Sad as f...either way. Prayers for Fontae. Rip aunty Victoria
YES!!!!
@@MissBillieBadass I bet u been passed around by everyone in your area hahaha
@@bigvsouthphilly2156kinda like your mom?
@@bigvsouthphilly2156 Projecting much? 🏳️🌈
I have no idea whether this guy is innocent or not. But clearly there is reasonable doubt and he never got a fair trial.
With all honestly I have the same diagnosis as her and I can see myself doing that ri myself when I split . I rage and self harm when a man rejects me and go feom 0 to 100
I agree with you. Although I am a strong proponent of the police, I have come to believe there should not be any questioning until the person being questioned has at least spoken to a lawyer.
Right!
Crazy that you can convict someone when it's very obviously clear that there is doubt
Exactly..based on what's explained in this video, there's absolutely reasonable doubt. And giving him the same judge on the second trial should not be allowed.
Imagine calling 911 for help and the dispatcher starts arguing with you
That was unprofessional. Her best response would have left with "help is on the way. I just need to know..."
he was the one arguing
Unbelievable, I have never been so sure that they sent an innocent man to jail. Everybody responsible will pay in the end.
So true I automatically assume guilty pos for any video on this channel and this almost seems cut and dry that this man is innocent
Im glad this juror stood his ground & spoke up about the hostile environment.
Indeed! Yes!
Do you think it is time Society had the conversation about just how effective jury trials are? If there should be an independent monitor in the deliberation room?
Personally, it would be important to me that I could say anything in that room without fear of repercussion or revenge.... but this type of deliberation happened this century, which blows my mind.... how do you convince people of what "Reasonable Doubt" even is when Reason has been lost in civil discourse?
Name of the judge???
Honestly. On the off chance he did it, he should never have been convicted. There's no fucking evidence.
It did no good if he did not write letter to judge he might of still been on jury and it would of been a miss trial and why in the hell that they had 200 people to pick from and all of them was white so no chance there could be a black person on jury so there was no persons of per on jury so corrupt I hope he can appeal don't give uo
Guilty or not, that judge probably shouldn't have been the one in charge of the second trial. Like what the hell
Its recusal worthy and bias. they arent supposed to do that. theres actual policies that can cost a judge their positions if they are found to do this.
This is a corrupt ass town, every lawyer judge cop politician is on the same team. Let's talk about how many times Monika got her son no charges because he was busted with weed or coke in high school...
It doesn‘t even make sense. The whole point of a second trial is to get another point of view on a case which is impossible if the same people / judge is involved…

okay speaking of this wouldn’t the autopsy report show if the wounds were self inflicted?
being a chick, they'd need a lot more damning evidence than what we've seen in this case before convicting you
RIP headphone users, this dude screams at the top of his lungs 90% of the time his mouth is open.

At least he wasn't holding the knife in this room too

Thanks for the heads up
look at him and tell me if you seriously believe you could ask him to do any better?
My worst fear is being accused of a crime that I didn't commit, and being locked away for it 😩
I have been falsely accused of things before when cameras werent so common, I always plea no contest and pay whatever the fees are because it is cheaper than fighting the state and trying to prove I did not do it. If facing jail time I'd have to weigh the odds and see whether I'll get more time or not but I'll probably just yield and not fight the state. It's not worth it. 😕 freedom.
@@JeffOnhill Damn, sorry to hear that 😩😭
Literally the scariest thing
And it happens
Mine 2
The depth of your research, although many vital pieces of evidence were withheld from you, is appreciated; as is showing both family’s feelings and conclusions. Investigating and reporting on the judge and jury- in both trials- was beyond eye-opening. This case deserves all the attention you have given to it, and more. Thank you.
The way he reacted to them telling him she was dead (for the first few minutes) was so real. My husband died suddenly 3 months ago and I reacted the same way. You can’t help but fall to the ground and wail with everything you have
My wife has both bi polar and borderline personality disorder too. Its tough. We got into a fight one time and she impulsively stabbed herself with a huge kitchen knife in her thigh, about 6 inches deep. I called an ambulance. She ended up being okay but I couldn't help but to feel like I was a suspect even after my wife said she did it. It was just the way I was questioned by police. So idk, I'm kinda torn on this one. What if my wife hit her femoral artery and died that night? What if I ended up in this mans position? Now I'm not saying he is necessarily innocent or guilty, but damn. I've been through this exact circumstance of what he said happened atleast. Thats really scary
Borderline is scary because they go into these dark moods where they seem like they’ll do anything and everything.
i don't mean to take away from your story but your wife cannot have both bipolar and bpd because borderline is caused by external traumatic factors and bipolar is inherently hereditary (i.e. the chemical imbalance runs in the family and your wife has had a history of bipolar people in her family). you're right to be concerned though; both bpd and bipolar can be scary in severe cases and i'm really glad your wife survived! the impulses are scary and it's often difficult to rationalize when you're put into a high state of mania with bipolar :( wishing you and her the best with coping with her bipolar.
@@nymphiashe could have the genetic basis for bipolar, AND have experienced trauma as a child. Both can definitely co-exist and one mental illness increases risk of developing another
@@nymphiaL comment.
@@nymphiawherever you got your information from that these two diagnoses can not coexist is incorrect
Whether he did it or not, the way things were handled by the court was absolutely disgusting. I cant believe they had the same judge take the case. The situation with the jurors that Andrew talked about sounded like 12 Angry Men, but with a bad ending.
It was absolutely disgusting, and along with the likely-corrupt police department of that area, it just spells a recipe for disaster. If they were so confident in their convictions, they shouldn't be keeping autopsy records from the public, and they shouldn't ensure that the jury is racially motivated to find him guilty.
12 Angry Men from 1957 was SO good! I had to look up the year and noticed there was another made in 1997. Maybe I'll have to check that one out too.
grow a backbone princess ,, geez
That’s American justice at its core, he had no money as athlete to defend himself.
100% agree with this. Xanax can make you do WILD things to yourself and is so dangerous when abused. As for the trial it's disgusting what can happen to jurors when they are bullied into making a decision. I hope Fontae gets another appeal properly heard. I have extensive knowledge of the justice system in the UK and it's similar to the US with regards to a jury. There was a show in the UK a couple of months ago detailing how easy it is for different juries to reach a different outcome with the same case and hearing exactly the same evidence, it was also detailing a murder trial. It showed how the jurors tried to manipulate the others into changing their minds. You should search for it on UA-cam it's fascinating.
Good job mentioning _why_ people should ask for a lawyer. It is so much more important than people think.
Asking for a lawyer is _more_ important than exercising your right to silence (although both extremely important, of course). Why? Because a lawyer helps you merely by asking for one. Just like this video says, if you ask for a lawyer, questioning must cease and if any questioning continues, anything said will not come into court. So merely by asking for a lawyer, before you even physically have one, you have done yourself a huge favor. Ask for a lawyer right away, and unequivocally. Not “I think I should have a lawyer 🤔 “ or “maybe I should get a lawyer.” No that won’t cut it. Say it unequivocally-I am not willing to answer questions without a lawyer.
This is my FAVORITE crime/interrogation channel no one just does it quit like you sir no extra yapping just straight facts and interrogations I love it
That judge needs disbarred. How she manipulated that jury was criminal. I’m not saying he was guilty or not guilty I’m talking about her actions. Him getting a new trial did not absolve the judge of her actions. I’m with that ex-juror, I very little faith in the justice system and crap like that is why.
Gee, sounds like people are saying about every judge in the country. All the time for years. Perhaps we should take our constitutional duty seriously and do it ourselves?
Absolutely stunned how he was able to get the same judge twice. I firmly believe he had something to do with her death and that it was homicide, but he has the constitutional right to a fair trial
@@swingingelephant3415hell no. The public are animals, if we had no government and took law into our own hands, we’d burn this place to the ground within days. And since when are all judges bad?? Haven’t you heard of Judge Cedric Simpson??
@@MKateUltra When did I say anarchy? I believe in liberty, you dope. I don’t care about what random judge is supposedly a nice guy, corruption of all kinds is rooted deeper than the justice system however its those corrupt judges forcing unconstitutional laws on us and politicians enforcing it. I also never said let the public go wild, in the 2nd amendment it states “A well regulated militia (Regulated meaning trained, militia meaning (a) group(s) of the people with the common interest of freedom and security of common rights, not imposed by any state or government body) being necessary of the security of a free state (also meaning free from governmental corruption, enforcement of law and security when the law i.e judges and police no longer enforce laws to keep people safe such as rampant drug use, repeat violence, and other offenses and judges letting those offenders back out over and over again until they kill someone.) The right to keep and bear arms will not be infringed, including infringing on the right to customize your arms the way you see fit or what certain weapons you can or can not have. Not saying hand guns out like candy, I agree with background checks but it is our right as americans to amend, dismantle, replace etc our government when our government is no longer fit. People like you, scared and weak minded are too afraid to do anything and would rather be complicit because “thats the law” or “thats the way it goes” and people who talk about guns are “nutjobs”. Get a grip, preferably on your own AR and fight for not only yours but the country’s rights. Btw people and government are not necessarily two seperate entities. The governement is an organization made up of the same exact people you would find in cities everywhere across america. Except higher class and all pedophiles drinking babies blood .
@swingingelephant3415 I've watched dozens of criminal court cases, and every judge was fine. Most of those cases, however, were tried in Wisconsin, so I can't speak about most other states.

She clearly did not care about her own life or the lives of others around her, mixing all that in her system. I believe he's innocent, and she was a drunk pill popping psycho. You have to be crazy to think it's okay to mix all that.
Geezzz... The last 3 counteracted the first 2, she had no chance to survive that combination.
Also, in the video he recorded just before the altercation, he clearly was telling her calmly to leave while she was sitting on the floor - then she stood up and attacked him after.... So firstly, he did try to get her to leave in a rational manner . Secondly, Why would he record a video if he was planning on murdering her? It just doesn't make sense to me that he would first ask her to leave AND be recording it, if he had any plans of stabbing her. She could have got up and left and nothing would have happened...

If there is video evidence of you telling someone to leave your property, and later they end up dead. At most you should only be looking at manslaughter or 3rd degree murder
@@thelastrellikx9503that's the same thing. "3rd degree murder" is manslaughter: meaning you killed someone unintentionally by actinf recklessly. 2nd degree murder means you killed someone without intent. 1st degree murder is you planned on killing them and then carried out the act.
@@rosestar1324 from what I read it varies by jurisdiction.
I don’t know if he’s guilty, but I think there’s enough reasonable doubt not to convict.
The EWU crew's ability to find so much footage is impressive. EWU deserves respect for how thoroughly their videos give insight into the background and psyche of the victims/suspects. Incredible channel. EWU, your hard work and diligence have made you THE BEST True Crime channel on UA-cam.

My favorite channel hands down because of the amount of effort out into each video!
As someone who’s struggled with mental health, Xanax coke and alcohol addiction, I can 100% see someone going this far out of control and hurting themself. The fact she’s done the same thing before and had to be forcefully stopped says A LOT.

Heck, I've "only" suffered with major depression and anxiety and been on benzos (as prescribed) for a while, then had two double screwdrivers (so four shots of vodka, total) and felt absolutely wasted, and was glad I don't have alcoholism, despite it running in my family, because I can easily see how and why benzos are both incredibly helpful for managing anxiety and panic attacks, but also easily abused and addictive, tolerance and so ineffectiveness rises fast, increasing the risk of addiction even further.
Just from that one night where I combined a pretty minor amount of alcohol with 15mg of a benzo, I could easily see how out of control by behaviour could have become, if it wasn't aware how loopy I felt, and asked to head home to bed! Especially when self-medicating legit mental health issues is so common for a reason. Numbing the pain, fear and trauma is what everyone wants to do in some way. Her particular diagnoses also predispose her to the wild swings in mood and behaviour, then she's mixing large amounts of uppers, downers, powerful prescription meds, street drugs that could be mixed with anything, and alcohol. Her own public social media posts confirm she is also possessive, jealous, controlling and not afraid to threaten violence, backed up with the deposition from the ex, that even her sister confirms she'd attacked her "once", and the video clip where she was the one to attack him first. That's a lot of evidence that weighs heavily in his favour, and it was all excluded from court!
There are so many flaws with the investigation, the court proceedings, the misconduct by people in power such as the judge interfering with jury decisions to force a conviction... plenty of reasonable doubt, not nearly enough compelling evidence proving beyond a reasonable doubt that he murdered her. Which means he should have been given a FAIR trial - impossible with the same judge, and same all white jury judging a black man being portrayed as a violent criminal who "took the life of a lovely, pretty young white girl"... I'm sure part of his hysteria must have been terror, knowing how so many will immediately make a snap judgement and assume his guilt.
Not to mention surpressing the evidence of her mental health and substance abuse history too. Based on the evidence seen here, I'd have to vote not guilty too. Dread to think how many more years he will lose of his freedom and life. Hopefully the innocence project will get involved.
100% agree with this. Xanax can make you do WILD things to yourself and is so dangerous when abused. As for the trial it's disgusting what can happen to jurors when they are bullied into making a decision. I hope Fontae gets another appeal properly heard. I have extensive knowledge of the justice system in the UK and it's similar to the US with regards to a jury. There was a show in the UK a couple of months ago detailing how easy it is for different juries to reach a different outcome with the same case and hearing exactly the same evidence, it was also detailing a murder trial. It showed how the jurors tried to manipulate the others into changing their minds. You should search for it on UA-cam it's fascinating.
I was thinking the same thing
This man needs the Innocence Project. He didnt do this
Insanity is doing the same thing over , expecting different results.... So bringin to the same judge is absolutely insane,!!!
He should have had a lawyer. There’s no way he should has been interviewed while drunk and in shock.
True. Honestly the interview helps play into his state of mind and should have helped him get off but the judge screwed him.
He's not under arrest. They want to know what happened. Stop being ridiculous
@@Youre-WelcomeCops are never your friend, and you should never speak to them without a lawyer, let alone when you're intoxicated.
@@Youre-Welcome They lied to him about Sam's condition, and they lied to him that he wasn't being detained. He absolutely needed a lawyer.
"oh noooo consequences of his actions ohhh noooo"
On what fucking planet is it acceptable that you can be forced to have the same judge upon receiving a retrial?
Its insane, I'm from South Africa and we have a corrupt system like most but this would never happen if there was a second trial. Also, the evidence and studies, as well as expert testimonies pretty much proves his innocence. Her tweets were erratic and dangerous at best. His recollection of the incident with her sister was not something he needed to say at all but it just pointed in the direction of her being mentally unstable. Not to mention the eerily similar situation her ex boyfriend had experienced with her. All of this is just something a seasoned law professional can't ignore, let alone a jury of ordinary citizens. I can rant on for days about how this is messed up on so many levels but its just youtube comments so won't really make a difference.
I'm also disgusted by the fact that people are literally laughing at his reaction to finding out she had passed away. It plays into the same narrative that juror was talking about, everyone wanted him to be guilty, regardless of the evidence and expert testimonies.
Regarding her drug use. I was prescribed a benzodiazepine med to deal with my anxiety. One day, I took literally one more than prescribed and blacked out. It was figured out by parents that I had taken my entire monthly quantity straight after I blacked out. I don't remember a single thing from that day, including getting in my car and driving to a friend, and having a serious accident on the way there. I can easily see how she could get into the position of doing what he claimed she did, considering she was pretty much walking with a drug dealer's supply in her bloodstream.
I hope he is innocent and gets justice one day.
PS: I am off benzodiazepines, and will never touch it again.
Dubuque has always been one of the most corrupt cities my lawyer told me this
Just gotta say for all the sub-humans saying "Look how relived he was when he heard she didn't die, that proves he didn't do it" No it proves he was already worried about going to prison for murder and then he thought it would be knocked down to aggravated assault. There is no way someone stabs themselves in the sternum multiple times in front of you and then you call your homeboy first and then the police and proceed to not give any information to the dispatcher... He keeps saying "You guys don't know what you would do in that situation" but we have records of hundreds of thousands of calls to the police where it's their first time calling 911 and reporting an emergency and they aren't as belligerent as him. 5 year old children would have communicated better hes a sociopath and a narcissist and clearly used to duping rubes like the fools in the comment section claiming he is innocent. That little fake tantrum and the weird segway into a supposed mob run police force and justice system in the city targeting him is such pure bullshit.
It’s not a planet. It’s a plane.
The documentary got that all wrong. The second trial wasn’t even in Dubuque. It was in Clinton iowa
I never understood why dispatchers act like they’re on a customer service call if someone is calling you, they are probably in an emergency state and questions are probably the last thing on some peoples mind when they need help. They really need to be trained to have more patience God damn
Yeah this was probably one of the worst ones I heard. Truly awful human being
The main thing the dispatcher needed was who may have done it, where is the weapon, and if she was breathing or not so she could get him to do cpr. Officer safety comes first, they need to know what they’re going into so they can secure the scene for paramedics.
@@bethanyhadley4852 I mean, yeah that makes sense but it’s an emergency. The only people in the world to call in an emergency is the police if they’re so scared for their life then maybe that’s not the job for them lol they’re meant to be put in dangerous situations
Thanks for bringing this case to us. Very interesting on all accounts.
“ I need a lawyer “ that’s the moral of this story
In this case 100% agreeed. But a lawyer can slow down an investigate where the accused might want a speedy investigation - such as a missing persons case.
It is a hard one, imaging being the husband of a missing wife, knowing that the police are trying to find evidence against you, while you want them to find your missing wife. (or child etc)
This needs a Netflix documentary and this man needs to be free. If I was on that jury, there was enough to see between her blood tests, her tweets, her character witnesses, and the expert witnesses to find acquitt.
@@Ericsaidful To be fair you havnt heard the prosecutions case. It is obvious that this video errs on the side of innocent. He may very well be, but the fact is, hes had (at least) 1 set of jurors believe he was guilty. So the prosecution must have a decent case. You have been 'tainted' by this material and would never qualify as a juror on this case. Impossible to have an impartial opinion.

@@debodatta7398 the 911 operator kept asking him stupid questions without even reassuring him that there was help on the way. I'd be frustrated and petulant too ffs. The first thing that operator should have stated was that they had lodged the address and services were on route to the address as fast as possible!
the fact that he was calm knowing she was alive was enough for me. If she had survived, he would’ve been freaking out that she would tell what happened. That’s just bizarre. Praying the Supreme Court watches this.
For me it was the fact he was wrong about where she was stabbed. Granted I know alcohol and drugs were involved, I don't know whether he had the latter, but you'd think he'd know which part of her he put the knife in.
@@Sage-Thyme Maybe he said stomach because it seems more plausible for someone to stab themselves in the stomach than it is to stab her heart and then stab her lung twice.

This is why you ALWAYS request a Lawyer before you say ANYTHING!
Yep, it's obvious if you watch these videos but it apparently CANNOT be stressed enough that the only reason we get these interrogation analysis videos is because these morons keep agreeing to 'just talk' so the cops can 'just get an idea of what happened' without their lawyer after being told they don't have to. How many of these people that almost always inevitably crack, or mess up even just once, contradict themselves, WHATEVER, would have been better off just shutting up? It's insane. I guess we can be glad so many criminals are this stupid.
Very wrong…. Only request if you’re innocent!!!!! If you’re guilty please talk your way out of it! The guys in these videos aren’t as smart as you are and you could talk your way out of jail if you just talk instead of lawyering up! It just makes you look guilty! lol
@@HardxCorpsxKali LMFAO I think this is genuinely what they think. They're either sociopaths who are sure they are smarter, or are quite literally too dumb to know better... and even if they are stupid, there's no way that their fellow criminals haven't told them to shut up and ask for a lawyer, and yet the cops know exactly what to say to keep them talking after reading them their rights.
Lawyers for the weak..
If you do that is because you are guilty
Even if he did do it, there is SO MUCH reasonable doubt to return a not guilty plea. The corruption in the trial is another issue in itself. The judge should not have done the trial a second time.
He'll be found guilty every time. He did it, it's the 2nd jury pool to agree. The defense had a whole extra shot to win , and still didn't.
@@kenw2225your mom won dez nuts! 🔩 Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! 🤭😱🫣
@@kenw2225 He would not have been found guilty the first time if the judge hadn't removed the juror who was voting not guilty for completely biased reasons.

You should try actually watching the video and google what reasonable doubt is. There was more than enough in this case.

Bruh I’ve KNOWN HIM for two decades, he’s been to our home on multiple occasions! He is friends with one of our sons and I would have never guessed this in a bajillion years. I also know people who knew Sam and they’ve said she was a little ‘off’ especially when it pertained to Fontae.
I dunno what happened but I’m still not 100 percent he did this.
Distancing language, he never says her name. He says She and that girl
I found that very odd too. Why wouldn’t he call her by her name? Is he distancing himself from her b/c it hurts too much to say her name? Or he didn’t care for her and he’s trying to wipe her from his memory?

I will never understand the thought process behind asking an interrogator about whether you need a lawyer. You really think they're going to outright say "Hey, buddy. This is pretty bad, and we think you did it. You should get a lawyer to make it a little more difficult for us to put pieces together." The same people who are legally allowed to give you false information to get you to speak...
They get a court appointed Atty anyway
Unfortunately there are plenty of naive people out there that still believe police are there to help you. Combine that with an extremely distressed emotional state and all of a sudden you don't think clearly.

@@GhostBooberrylots of it
They don’t understand that the detectives can lie to them and pretty much say anything. If I didn’t watch true crime content I would have never known they could lie to these suspects. I would have never known that if I’m completely innocent, I need an attorney more than ever. It’s easy for us to say that these people should “lawyer up” but I think a majority of people just don’t realize what can actually happen.

Just because he reacted how you wanted doesn't mean he's innocent.
How in tf did she throw a knife across the room after taking two lethal stab wounds to the lung and heart?
Oh because 1-3% people can survive multiple stab wounds?
So that means there was a 97% chance she just died, let alone she had the strength to throw a knife for no reason

Judges rarely lose their jobs even if they really mess up. There's a whole bunch of videos on UA-cam about it. Different judges like that
What is the point of a jury when a judge can just conveniently remove the jurors that prevent an unanimous decision? Things like that should be investigated on its own. Everything about this seems corrupt and incredibly biased, and I'm far from convinced that he did it.
What's the point in a jury if one juror feels "disrespected" and decides he won't convict to get even with the others? Listen to Andrews words, he took things personally and he showed his bias. There's always three sides to the story and we only heard from Andrew who would of course paint himself in the best light and make everyone else look bad.
@@bdawgy101And the other juror who was bullied into changing her not guilty verdict?
Yes, the case does sound rather suspect, but being able to get rid of problematic jurors is still a good thing. There have been dozens of cases of jurors needing to be removed for any number of truly disturbing reasons: jurors have sexually assaulted other jurors, had heart attacks, friends have gotten lucky and gotten jurors on their friends' cases, we've even found mafia plants in juries before. Imagine what some of the seedier people you've met or seen online would do if they had total immunity to getting kicked off a jury.

Too much reasonable doubt in this case, NOT GUILTY
Yeah agreed. Doesn't mean he's *innocent*, we may never know for sure, but legally? Most definitely not guilty.

@@jasonsmitty.1057 they didn't "destroy" her character. She was unstable, depressed, and stated that she would k*ll herself.

She wouldn't be the first person to st4b themselves.
Agreed
@@jasonsmitty.1057 I think the bigger issue with this video is the narrator trying to psychoanalyse an intoxicated man! Without taking into account what they said about her ideations; there’s enough reasonable doubt.

they need to balance their standards with the fact that it's very hard to recruit adequate officers for certain areas in terms of quantity and quality
I’ve never seen a guilty person react that hysterically at a loss of someone. Samantha had alcohol, cocaine, marijuana, benzodiazepines, Prozac, and other medications in her system. She had a significant history of mental illness, toxic relationships, threats of self harm, and was not in a stable state of mind at the time of her death. I wholeheartedly believe he is innocent.
If he is guilty he deserves an Oscar for that performance. I have never seen anything like it
He was faking it.
@@_lithp you would be like those pos jurors, stay away from anything involving the justice system
His behavior in the interview didn't really reflect what I usually see in guilty people either. He was super relaxed, open, relieved when he heard she was ok. Usually when hearing a victim is going to make it, guilty suspects I've seen usually fake relief but close themselves off - but he started saying he never wants to see her again and remains open.
I'd say the only type of person who could pull this off would be a psychopath or a sociopath, but there would be signs of that in his everyday life... Im only halfway thru this video typing this so maybe there are... but if he's lying, then he missed his call as an actor.

Alchohol? shit you could kill someone and not even know it happened. Very sad story but amazing coverage as usual.
This is an absolutely phenomenal video, truly your best stuff and you guys havent slacked, its utterly fantastic. It is slightly disheartening to see people in the top comments mocking the wailing of someone who has just been told they lost someone, if anyone has ever fought with a spouse/lover/gf over something that isn't independent from the two people, like children, even if you are angry or furious, its pretty rare you actually want them dead. Disgraceful to some of the top comments, truly.
Her tweets are wild. I can believe she stabbed herself. Also being on meds and drinking is never a good mix. Never.
i knew people with bipolar, on meds and were alcoholic. the worst combination you could think of... i do believe she stabbed herself. the case, clearly, has not been investigated properly. clear ven before EWU mentioned it. there was a scandal in the jury, the judge. it´s throughout a bs case. the police withheld documents from EWU, which is not looking very honest from the investigators.
if they were so sure and had all evidence without a doubt, why would they withhold crucial information to the case?
maybe it would show what a kindergarten of investigators they were.

You really have to have dated someone with BPD to truly understand how insane those relationships are, how manipulative they can be and the incredibly intense emotions they suffer from. If someone has it bad, they could do absolutely anything. Not to mention all the drugs in the mix.
The only time I have ever been in fear for my life was when I was visiting my long-distance girlfriend.
She had really bad BPD with schizo tendencies and I woke up at 3:30 A.M. to her leaning over me and just staring at me with these huge, blank, emotionless eyes. She looked like a different person. I said something like "What the fuck are you doing?" and she snapped out of it immediately.
She was on anti-psychotics like respirodone and trazedone.
She also thought that her brother hacked her TV and was recording her to show his friends and make fun of her.
When we broke up, she publicly accused me of being a pedo on TikTok and then proceeded to send me pictures and videos of her hooking up with guys that were 28-30 years old (I was 22 she was 18)
She was the most beautiful woman I've ever laid eyes on and only now have I started to heal.
Exactly
@@JasonHamHamwichHell naw...that's creepy hovering over you while u slept
As someone with BPD it's a little frustrating for us all to be painted as manipulative. Majority of the time our emotional confusion stems from being manipulated by people that took a lot of trust to have a connection with.
Manipulative is such a "I don't know much about BPD, but here it goes" description of BPD.
You speak like a 1970s psychologist who won't take BPD patients because they believe this complete bs
This seriously gives me "12 angry Men" vibes
I'll never understand why one of the first things dispatch says isn't "we're on the way, now I need extra information to help"
Could be bullshit but I think it's in the hopes of keeping the person on the phone as long as you can to gain info/help with CPR instructions. If you don't confirm anythings on the way the person might be liable to hang on and keep talking
Because when people hear help is on the way, they may not hear the second part about needing more information and hang up. That happened on the call in this case once he heard confirmation they were coming.
@@MatchaLeafThat’s right.
It should be assumed if you have told them the address.
I'll never understand why people think screaming and yelling is going to help them in an emergency situation. Speaking as calmly and clearly as you possibly can will help save precious seconds when contacting emergency services. Not screaming like an emotional wreck. Save it for after you made the call.
Part of the reason I love this channel is because of how unbiased it seems. I think this video did an absolutely fantastic job of being as informative as it was with such a complicated case without trying to sway viewers from one viewpoint or another 💕
as someone who lost a partner to suicide, that reaction was genuine. that was 100% genuine. i would have reacted the same way if i was in that situation. those cops suck.
Man, as a former cop….. this sucks, this guy seems pretty innocent. How did his defense not prove his innocence? This feels wrong. I’m perplexed
How was he not given a different judge. That right there is enough to overturn
You only get a different judge if it can be proven that the judge's mistake was made out of malice. Note, EWU completely skips over exactly what got a retrial: Namely, her decision that the defense can't attack the victim's character. IT wasn't seen as a malicious mistake.
It was enough to get a retrial. He was convicted again, and appealed once more, and it was denied.
It's notable that the appeal was over his desire to suppress statements he made to the police that were instrumental in his second conviction.
I started this video so suspicious of him but that judge is criminally negligent and should be held accountable!
But she won't. Basically, in America, judges and cops are gods (a being that exists with no relation to society). There's some hokey bullcrap that makes it so cops can break all the laws while arresting someone, even wrongly, and they can't get in trouble for the bull they pulled.
