My DoorDash delivery guy recognized your voice on my tv when I answered the door a few minutes ago. I tipped him extra 😆❤️
That’s ace 😂
Hahha that’s awesome
That's actually pretty badass❤
He's so close to 2 mil!! I'm rooting so hard for him over here!
😂😂😂
✋ Raise your hand if you left whatever video you we’re watching as soon as you got the notification of Mikes new drop.. ❤
Haha thanks so much!
Always ❤
Every Tuesday and Friday. I stop whatever I am doing to hear Ike Moike!!!!
Haha I was watching mma hour lol😂
🤚🏾
"I mean this in the most disrespectful way possible" is now my new fave thing 😂
Me too. Just as long as it’s not happening to me.
"With all due respect- which is none, by the way-" is a personal favorite.
With all due disrespect 😂
Imagine all the happening to you and on top of it - in a *completely unrelated incident* - some other creep breaks into your house and does creep stuff. I would never go back to the town in my life.
😅io
How do you make bold lettering. Is it *like this*?
Crap. Nope. I can't remember how to do slanted letters and bold on UA-cam comments.
@@DoorsToHideBehind156 You can google for some "𝐁𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫"...and then just copy the 𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒖𝒍𝒕 here
@@DoorsToHideBehind156
You almost had it. Punctuation needs to go INSIDE the asterisks/underscores, not outside of it (asterisks for bold of course, and underscores are for ITALIC letters - they aren’t called “slanted” lol).
I thought it was great that they gave her the reward money that was being offered for her safe return because she saved herself.
good!!
It sadly sets up a predecent for people to fake their own kidnapping and return expecting their reward money. It's really not good in the long run.
Awesome
@@ChiefsWin316 I really doubt that, she’s a child
@@ChiefsWin316lmao stop it. have you seen how hard it is for folks to fake being kidnapped? They do it… and then everyone finds out.
Her mom literally died protecting her daughter from this man. Her worst nightmare was playing out in her last moments, and her last thought was probably realizing she hadn’t succeeded in saving her. It’s so monstrous. It’s beyond evil.
I followed this when it happened and still think about Jamie and if she’s okay now. She’s so brave, but she shouldn’t have had to be. She was just a kid. I hope she’s been able to find some peace in her life. I hope she took survivors like Elizabeth Smart up on their offers to support her. Few could ever understand such a horror.
not even a mention, for the father? 🤔
And you spelt Jayme wrong.
My worste nightmare is dying with out saving my child, or any child ....
@@talpark8796mention a straight white cis male? In this country?? Pfft what're you some kind of oppressor
@@Jenn3190
Do you feel better about yourself now?
Smdh
Imagine walking your dog and suddenly a shoeless, ragged lil girl with wild eyes runs & you KNOW her face from the news!
Dog walkers and joggers always find the most shocking things 🤯 but thank god for them
Right?! I can't even imagine what was going through that woman's mind...😮
@@kristinwojtowich8902from the way she described it... grandma instinct kicked in. Protective, selfless and comforting.
Ace of a woman, no question about that.
@@dommyboysmith no question at all. I honestly don't know how she could've handled it better than she did. And you know Jayme is going to remember her forever.
The entire state of Wisconsin rejoiced when she was rescued.
I'm in that area often, and the house where the Kloss family lived has been demolished and is now just an empty lot. Jayme got a ton of support from the community, and some credit has to be given to Elizabeth Smart, who came out to support Jayme and fight for her privacy. I hope that wherever she is now, Jayme has been given the support and space to begin healing after what this monster did to her and her family.
Bastard shakes his head when the judge says he's a danger to the community like he's a-ok to just walk about and not try anything like this again.
You got flagged ya bastard! For saying bastard! I approved it!😂
Right? Zero self awareness. Zero empathy for others.
looks like jeffery dahmer, acts like him too
Saluton!
Right? What’s that about? Does he really think he’s not a danger to people when he killed 2 in cold blood and kidnapped and imprisoned a young girl under his bed for 2 months? The lack of self-awareness is astounding.
Bless her and the woman she ran to for help. They both handled the situation as well as they could. I hope Jayme is able to move past the trauma, and leads an AWESOME life.
The lady who found her is an angel on earth, she really took care of Jamie until the authorities got there.
@@sassycat6468absolutely! You know their minds and hearts were going a million miles a minute. I'm so happy the lady knew to just comfort her and not bombard her with questions.
Exactly !!!
The more she succeeds, the greater her victory !!!!
🤩😍😘👋🏽👍🏽
I did! F whatever I was watching! Mike is on!
hearing the cop start the press conference saying “sorry i lost my voice obviously after yesterday” while holding back tears of joy literally gave me chills because almost every had assumed at that point she wasn’t coming back alive. i truly loved this story ❤
Serial Killer hairline at 21... impressive credentials young man.
Hormel, the parent company of Jennie-O offered 25K as a reward for information leading to Jayme's recovery. When she escaped, Hormel gave her the money.
Yeah, I just read that in another post too. That's wonderful of them!
Too bad the little girl had lost both her mom and dad because the psycho...
Nice!
Every kidnap victim, who survives by the grace of fate, should always be given money.
The fact that he sits there and shakes his head gesturing "no" as the judge says his feelings just shows you how INSANE this dude is
More like ENTITLED. Mike said his parents paid for everything in his life. Perhaps they should have forced him out on his own!
It doesn't particularly show anything because it's such a generic gesture..
More like EVIL.
@@desertdaisymarie6951sorry what else does it mean? The fact he even said bye to the girl as well as though they’re friends. What’s wrong with you
He's a psychopath and they aren't insane, just cold hearted and calculating.
One of the most striking things in this video was the cops talking to each other at the scene:
“We’re missing the murder weapon.”
“We’re missing a lot.”
I can’t imagine what it would be like to respond to a call like that.
Shout out to Jayme for being so strong throughout this ordeal. I pray she is ok and trying to live her best life!
In all reality that other pervert worries me. He needs ppl keeping their eye on him.
perverts are the worst of the worst of society
Foreal. I need an update on that guy. Is he in jail? Is he free? Is he doing well? Lol im genuinely curious about dude lol.
@@Zaclatemap me too but I also believe having at least a cursory amount of information on him is in the general public’s best interest, especially those living anywhere near to him.
@@amberswafford9305 seriously. The guy was arrested for breaking into a crime scene and was stealing a little girl's bra and underwear and wearing it. I'm pretty sure that warrants a pretty close eye to be kept on that guy lol.
@@Zaclatemap You’re damn right & if the “proper authorities” ain’t willing to do it, the community oughta come together & get it done, after they pass the hat round for donations toward the lawyer they’d inevitably need & fare far better having.
This kind of call has to be one of the scariest to respond to. Hearing absolutely horrific sounds in the 911 call, but arriving to dead silence and having no clue what you're running towards. This has to be terrifying.
As a medically retired Police Officer, honestly, you are only thinking about trying to help, so you don’t have much time to worry about being scared.
@@charliemike13thank you for your service!!
@@ThomasOConnor-wv5jt lol can we just let the "thank you for your service" nonsense die already?
Honestly, I would say the woman who listened and saved her is the real hero.
And her mom.
I imagine you never fully recover from this kind of trauma. She was right next to her mother when that evil thing shot her. God bless Jayme and give her peace.
"Youd be better off listening to sounds from a public bathroom for an hour" 😂😂😂 Mike you're killing me with this one ☝️
Yes i literally laughed out loud when he said this. 🤣
Listening to crazy people is usually a fools errand...
🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏
"Not really much to say about him...and I mean that in the most disrespectful way possible"
He had some great ones
People who like those sounds are now offended
All I keep thinking is that this poor girl must have felt a wave of relief hearing the sirens rush towards the car, and then overwhelming devastation when the sirens passed by and kept going. I cant even begin to imagine how that felt.
I had the same thought. :(
Me too
Very thoughtful thought ❤
Exactly. I can't imagine how horrible it would feel if that was the only thing that happened, not to mention she was also processing her parents being murdered. Poor girl.
I live close to Baron and frequently think about Jayme and how her life has forever changed. I followed the case so closely while she was missing and actually cried when we got the news that she was back and safe
Thanks Mike. That poor sweet girl. At 13 she is a legend going through all that in 88 days losing your parents both of them. Getting abducted, living at the hands of a maniac, keeping it together. 😢 I wish the best for her and her family. She’s a incredibly strong person. ❤
At 13 years old, I would have a meltdown if my curling iron didn’t work. 😢
The scariest thing about this is they did nothing wrong at all, there was nothing could have done to prevent this from happening to them...
Yup and I am a firearm owner. Could happen to anyone. Mental health is a serious problem in America which I wish they would address. It's also the black mirrors fault.
They could've been armed themselves. They could've had a stronger front door.
@@CrazyBear65. Yea…windows on front door not my style either
@@IconoclastX I'm glad I don't live in your head or world.
@@IconoclastXHad more kids? Yeah great idea. Oh you mean for a family militia
I’ll never get used to hearing people genuinely screaming like that, thanks for the warning Mike
I missed it, timestamp?
@@luns486 right towards the beginning in the 911 call, I wanna say maybe around minute five? Can’t confirm at the moment sorry!
@@luns486just a few minutes into the beginning.
It’s heartbreaking
Even the pizza guy said oh is that Mike?
The scariest part is that, theres more of such evil beings amongst us, living and existing unsuspicious.
Inconspicuously ❤
"There's only 600 people in the town of Gordon and nobody remembers him" ☠️☠️☠️
Sadly they remember him now
24:46 damn even the lawyer struggled reading that.. the fact that she escaped just shows the strength that girl had
bro when your in danger you get like super human powers
I thought it was the Uncle
@@KylieCrime Plenty of victims prove otherwise
@@ShadowAussie would you be interested in watching one of my true crime videos and providing me with feedback?
@ShadowAussie they're simply meaning in times of adrenaline rushes, you CAN get superhuman like abilities haha. I've witnessed it
I live an hour away from where this happened. Everyone was on alert and you couldn’t go anywhere without hearing or seeing something about Jayme. A lot of us were losing hope that she may never be found. Thank god she made it.
Same here! I vividly remember when she escaped and seeing the news reports about it, where they interviewed the lady who i believe was walking her dog. I just remember feeling so relieved but also so sad that she was coming home parentless. 😢
I don't live close but this case was on my mind constantly...thought it would go cold. So grateful she saved herself. Absolutely heartbreaking she lost her parents but damn, what a strong girl. So happy she has family to take her in and support & love her. I hope she can live the best life possible!
that''s funny because I live 59 minutes away from where this happened. No one was on alert and you could go everywhere without hearing or seeing something about Jayme. No one was losing hope that she wouldn't be found. Sounds like you're a liar.
I live in Southern California, and I followed this case closely. You know, you never know where these nutjobs will go next, so I keep my eyes open.
@badabing8152 I'm about 3 1/2 hours away. We got the amber alerts, we got a missing person's poster in our business, everyone was talking about it, eventually figured it was over and she was gone, because it had been so long. The audacity to accuse someone of lying when they are talking about a town you obviously don't live in. Just because one town has more concern over it than your's, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Its a huge country full of many different types of towns and people. Sucks your's must not care, or you just have poor observational skills. You are too busy being rude and self absorbed, i suppose.
17:50 she looks absolutely distraught. How those people couldn’t read the room and give the girl her space is beyond disgusting.
That poor girl. There's no way to even imagine what she went through, not that you'd really want to. I hope she got the help she needed to start her healing journey and that she is doing as well as she can now. I'm glad she had family to take her and support and love her. Not to mention a town that rallied around her. I wish her peace and all the strength in the world.
That 911 call was god damn CHILLING.
Yea that was a rough one.
I cant imagine what that poor girl went through.. I know her life will never be the same, but I hope that she is able to find happiness. ❤
highly doubt she wasn't impregnated during that ordeal
remarkably he didn't sexually assault her. They both confirmed this to be the case. He was hoping she would fall for him eventually.
I can't imagine what anxieties, and hurt and devestation this does to a survivor.
Living as I do in Wisconsin, and with two daughters close in age to Jayme…this case was terrifying, and at times seemed hopeless…until Jayme took a chance and saved herself. I hope only the best for her going forward - and that she is allowed to heal and move on in peace.
Lmao 'He had bad grades, C's, D'S nutz!!' Mike cracks me up.
👍😂
I laughed, then tried to remember that I'm a mature adult.
If you're into podcasts, give his a listen. So funny with his mate Keith.
As sad as this story was, this made me laugh, snort laugh.
@@lovebabyjonespj3337 lmao 🤣
We drove by the house very early in the morning just after this happened. We were on the way to a trade show with no clue what happened. Jayme isn't only brave, I'm convinced she saved others. This had to be a serial killer in the making.
They ended up knocking down the property. It was sold last year and someone built a new house on it.
Property was worth about 180k. They tore it down and sold the land for about 75k if I remember correctly.
The Patterson property was torn down and nothing has been built there. People avoid that vacation community.
@@awsomo53 💔💔
Avoid thr entire state.
Serial killer in the making? Uhhh no? Didn't you see him shaking his head no while the judge was saying how dangerous he is? Clearly you missed him continually shaking his head no, but he totally convinced me and im sure many others... You could just tell that was the head nod of an innocent man.
@@saraladd6885 what? You really that naive and ignorant? 🤣😭🤣 Read the whole case file. He’s far from being innocent.
Jayme’s statement broke my heart. She lost her parents, home, youth and innocence to an evil monster. I don’t know how you recover from all the horror she went through but I pray she is. She truly is a hero with great strength. What a wonderful job her parents did.
This story has always blown my mind. I am blown away by Jamie and just the strength and tenacity it took to get through this and then escape. She deserves all of the happiness in the world
For someone who repeats "in reality" he sure doesn't have a grasp of it. The Benny Hill music during the jail sequence was much appreciated!
So happy that Jayme is in good hands and recovering. 💚
I think you might have just been summarising, but the "in all reality" guy was Kyle and the prison fight was Jake
When you said it was around Halloween, I was expecting to hear the dispatch hang up thinking it was a prank. Glad I was wrong.
I wish her the brightest future.
Same! But the police arrived in 7 minutes! Sadly, it was still too long. But they tried!
Yes, also so glad the police showed up on the scene as quick as they did. I was worried dispatch might think it was a prank
This was such an odd and distressing story when it happened. I think a lot of us didn't expect Jayme Closs to be found alive, she's an incredibly strong survivor. Her poor parents died in such a terrible way trying to protect each other... they must have been so scared. 😢 I'm sure they would be so proud of Jayme for surviving this. I hope she thrives and has a bright future ahead of her.
So random that it's frightening, just because he saw Jayme getting on a school bus. I doubt that she see's herself as a hero. Though she will never forget, I pray that she lives her life like her parents dreamed she would. Best wishes Jayme to you and your extended family.
That’s what’s so scary about this case. Like literally no motive similar to most abductees or killers… literally just a chance sighting of her and he decided then and there to do all of this. There’s absolutely no way her parents or anyone she knows could’ve prevented this from happening. He had no previous relationship or knowledge of her and her family, just was driving around one day and randomly saw a little girl getting off a bus across the street then decided to murder her entire family and abduct her. Had no previous record of violence or anything similar whatsoever. And also the fact that he like didn’t even really have a plan for after he abducted her. Just kind of stowed her away under his bed with no real plan like most abductors do. Just the randomness of it all is so frightening and just fucked all around…
Abductors**
Best comment. 😢😢😢
*SEES
@@sorryifoldcomment8596 YIKES
..."frankly you'd be better off listening to the sounds of a public bathroom for an hour" Once again MIKE has simultaneously, saved me and cracked me up.🥰🙏
This might be one of the most bone-chilling cases covered IMO. So horrific, I feel so bad for that poor girl and her parents... stuff of nightmares.
It’s insanely eerie and heartbreaking that the police were mere feet away from Jayme at the beginning on the way to the scene, but it wasn’t until 88 days later she escaped his evil grasp
Just completely sad man!!!….. glad she’s ok but still!!! How OK is she really!?? 😢
Fairly well, I'm relatively local. I heard she got a lot of support from her remaining family and community. I believe she has graduated high school now and was going to college.
Probably as okay as she can be, given the circumstances. The local community/people were very protective of her after her rescue, so she was able to avoid a lot of media harassment.

Jayme is a beautiful warrior. Good job, Mike. Your storytelling brought new life to her story.
Yes. I have watched everything that has been reported on this crime (that I can find) and Mike's treatment here is amazing because there are so many new aspects of the crime that are totally new to me, and probably to everyone. THAT is why we love Mike so much. He just does the most amazing research and story telling on the internet.
How wierd is it that I never cry on this channel but burst out in tears when they found her. So happy.
THANK YOU for reporting on this! I live very close to where Jayme's house was. It has since been demolished, & the land was sold. This heavily affected everyone in Barron & the surrounding communities. We all felt so Safe out here, & this was so disturbing. People still talk about it.
Jayme is doing well. She lives with the aunt in this video, & has a job now. No matter how 'ok' she seems on the outside, this trauma & loss will be with her for the rest of her life. She will be graduating soon, this year I believe. There's just so much that she cant share with her parents anymore. Such a selfish & unnecessary tragedy. At least we can be glad that the monster who did this will never be free to do anything like this again. Thank you for telling her story.
Horrific. The odds of this happening in your home is extremely low but just knowing that it's even remotely possible is chilling. I often think about Jayme and hope she has found some closure. It was the act of a madman and I hope she feels no guilt or blame for his despicable actions.
I think of her too. Hope that wherever she is that she finds a way through her trauma. She's a very special, very brave girl. I just pray that she can find happiness.
Anything that has happened on this earth there's a chance it'll happen....there really ain't nowhere safe on earth if someone wants what you have bad enough
I lived not far from Barron. When her escape broke on the news, I heard it on my car radio and pulled over to listen. Everyone locally was hoping for the best and expecting the worst. I couldn't believe Jayme's strength.
Definitely thought it was going to be another “found by hunters” story. Absolutely amazing when they announced she was found alive!!
damn that call was so eerie it actually gave me chills. like physical, palpable ones
It really hurts me to think about what Jayme was thinking, feeling, and doing during those 88 days. Just so awful and senseless, and her statement broke my heart. I hope she finds healing and happiness.
This guy was sick. How he could eliminate her parents just to get to her. People need to be careful, this can happen to anyone at any point. Some people are extremely disturbed and they will make plans like this to satisfy their sick fantasies. Be vigilant. So happy Jamie was able to survive this and get this creep caught.
I’m surprised they didn’t have a gun. Aren’t gun laws fairly lax in Wisconsin and most ppl there have one?
@@stancexpunkswhen you're ambushed like they were, I'm guessing it would be difficult to get to one unless you don't have it safely stored because there's a minor in the house.
@@SugarandSarcasm Thank you. All of the idiots proclaiming 'If they only had a gun, this wouldn't have happened' are just trying to comfort themselves with the belief that something like that could never happen to them.
@@stancexpunks I would guess virtually everyone in rural Wisconsin has at least a hunting rifle. But Dad didn't know a psycho killer was walking up to the door, and was shot before he even had a chance to react, so I'm not sure how that was going to help.
I'm so happy Jamie is doing as well as she possibly can.
Sending positive thoughts and prayers.
I froze up when I saw that Mike was talking about Jayme's case. The 911 call was blood curdling. I cried. It was so so sad. Jayme is an amazing woman. She is a hero. Wishing her peace and happiness.
This case disturbs me to my core! Dude is a real life monster
Never heard this case before. Blessings to Jayme and so so sorry for the loss of your parents and the tragic heartbreaking trauma you endured. You are strong and brave beyond your years.
Welcome to…EARTH!!!
Downtown middle of nowhere Wisconsin is about right. 😅 i live about 30 miles north of Barron in a town called Spooner. The whole area was on edge when this happened. Getting that Amber Alert was surreal.
Hey Barron is a hot spot. It's right off the I94. My family comes from WI. Mom's from Downsville-that's the middle of nowhere. Be safe and happy 😊.
I know of Spooner. I know people from Luck, Milltown and Amery... tiny communities. Also middle of nowhere. Seems to be theme in that area...lol
The Northwoods should have the same reputation as the Pine Barrens in Jersey. I grew up in Wittenberg, and there's a whole lot of nothing to hide terrible things... they never found Kayla Berg.
@@jillianlambert3596 I remember that case. Sara Bushland was never found either. She's been missing since 1996. She was my friend and classmate. So yeah, I completely get it.
Is the Spooner bakery still open? I remember thinking it was the best 😅
Thank you for covering this horrendous story. I can’t imagine how hard everything must be for Jayme, going on without her parents and everything else that he robbed her of. She is truly a hero for her bravery, but she probably doesn’t see it that way. She touched many lives, who continue to think of her often and wish her all the best. ❤❤❤
So much confidence, I hit like before the video even starts 😂❤
Me too 😊
I did too 😂
Me too lol
As do I haha! I just love Mike and his personality/humor lol
Cool
Dude, the Jennie-O turkey farm is an existential nightmare in itself. Love you
I live in Colorado and I remember this whole case vividly; hope she’s doing okay.
In all reality, the COs will know Jake’s crimes and in all reality, so will the inmates. In all reality, the COs will take their time responding to the code. In all reality, Kyle should be in there too.
This is the best crime videos ever. Always respectful and mindful but also adding a bit of laughter into it.. helps relief that grief or anger while watching and makes it so enjoyable. Which is why im a patreon member also
Mike's the best at sarcastically ripping into all these dirtbags, one of the reasons why I'm such a huge fan!
I still remember the billboards around town whe she missing and after a week we all obviously started thinking the worst, especially after her parents were found dead. It was truly shocking and amazing seeing the "Welcome home Jayme!" sign change.
I’m from Wisconsin and have family in the Barron/Ladysmith area. This story was huge, even in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Much publicity but when Jayme saved herself, walking in the cold and snow, wearing her captures oversized shoes. Wow! Chris Kunze, from Barron, was on a singing show at the time and helped to continue to shine light on her story.
"no better place to get your gobble, gobble" 😂
i think i can name a few places
Yo. I got that good gobble. Hit up ya boi
The is a lot more to say about how well Jayme is doing. Thanks mike for not easily sensationalizing her story and respecting her privacy. Great job as always. Thanks.
What a tragic story. My heart breaks for her. Prayers for her heart to heal... somehow. Thanks Mike. You are surgical with these. Bravo.
The craziest part, but also actually really really good, is dude didn't "reap his rewards"- he kidnapped her for precisely one reason, keep her as a S slave, and he never actually abused her- in that way.. so grateful for her sake, but why put her through all this and murder her family then? He was evil enough to murder 2 people but not evil enough for that. That's got to be so incredibly rare for a creep like him to not do what the whole point of his evil act.
And Jayme is a freaking hero! She saved herself and even got the reward money. She stood up and accosted the perv, it was great
I remember when this one happened. It seemed to be all anyone in Wisconsin could talk about. She's as impressive a person as he was shitty. Incredible story
do a lot of crimes happen in wisconsin? isnt that where steven avery was from?
@@KylieCrime its unfotunately a hot spot for serial killers/killers. Jeffery Dahmer, John Gacy, gypsy rose and her boyfriend fled here, crazy chandler halderson, etc
@@KylieCrime I don't know if they're more common than anywhere else. But we sure have a good share of high profile ones. Dahmer and Gene were both in Wisconsin, too. As was the "slender man" stabbing. I dunno. Maybe it's all the cheese?
@@KylieCrime rural small town Wisconsin is generally safe. Dahmer was in Milwaukee. I think you would be hard pressed to find a state that doesn't have some serial killers in it's history
@@janetgood6332 very true. You're far more likely to hit a deer or slide off the road on ice than suffer any kind of violence here, even in Milwaukee.
Though my kids go to a city high school in Madison and plenty of shit goes down there. I'm told it's generally fine as long as you're not personally involved.
Anxiety level- 10. Hear Mike's intro music start..anxiety level- 3. Seriously, thanx Mike. Even when telling these type of stories, you help some of us through rough patches .
It’s true Mike helps me so much
I remember this unfolding like it was last week. I hope Jayme’s healing in a safe, loving environment.
What a warrior! She can teach a master class on not just resting on victim mentally.
This story... ugh, my heart. I hope Jayme is doing as well as she can be doing. What a badass. She deserves the best.
Good morning Mike. Love starting my mornings with you. This Aussie is a massive fan. Thanks for all your hard work.
88 day Jayme Closs endured & survived. This was absolutely horrific it shook Minnesota & Wisconsin. Law enforcement actual passed them on the road on the way to the house. The mother tried to protect her daughter in the bathroom, but he still got her. There are updates about her out there if you look.
Remember nowdays there are a ton of young men who don't have any respect for girls/women & want to do them harm. So when you see it in the media you have conversations about their inappropriate behaviors.
What an amazing lass. Proper legend. Hopefully she manages to overcome her trauma and builds a happy life for herself.
I'm always amazed at how bad cops are at speaking in public.
most people are, regardless…
They’re hired to enforce the law…. Not public speaking.
Hmm.. not rly? Most are decent. This one was pretty bad tho. But then again, being a good public speaker isn’t really expected for cops unless they’re like head of media relations or something
Jayme is the princess that saved herself. RIP to her mom and dad who I have no doubt orchestrated her escape from beyond.
No, she escaped herself through her own perseverance and strength. Not some heaven angles
@@cuddlecakes7153 Okay genius, it's spelled angel. An angle is a whole different thing, so sit down and stop speaking about things you can't even spell correctly.
@kristinebailey6554 Ahahaha, well said! 😂
@@kristinebailey6554 DEAD. lol
@@kristinebailey6554 heaven angles. LOL I wonder if they were obtuse or very acute (I had to). 😝
It's a little thing, but a fun add. Jayme got the reward that was posted for rescuing herself. I remember the news stories from the time.
This happened less than an hour from my town. It is TERRIFYING..the town is so small. HOW COURAGEOUS of that young lady is. This community is 💯 not used to this level of danger and horror. Bless her heart ❤️ 💙 💜
Thank you Mike for telling this with mad respect for Jayme. I feel all of your uploads are done with respect, but this was different. I appreciate the fact that you modify the way you tell a story based on the people, their ages, & gender who had to endure it then survived it. You are AWESOME!!!
Yes few true crime creators can walk that line of keeping humor in their videos while staying also respectful of the victims
The jail fight and the music 😂
fight was freakin epic
I remember this! I live in Minnesota (it’s right next to Wisconsin) and we had sooo much news coverage about Jamie Closs. I’m still so grateful that she survived. Heck, Kare 11 is one of my local news stations and a Kare 11 news anchor was shown in the video.
And damn, Jake Patterson graduated the same year as me.
I can’t believe he was shaking his his head at the closing statement!! 🫤🤔
The police response was honestly amazing given no details were given on the call
Thank you Mike for keeping me company during my work days and long drives ❤
Me too. Nine and a half hours with three more to go.
@@Chooge I wish you safe travels!
@@Chooge or a good rest of your work day. Whichever it is I wish you the best 😁
Yep….. best part of my working day…. The drive listening to Mike.
I'm glad they were able to put this sicko away forever without forcing Jayme to have to relive her trauma in court.
I hope that other weirdo is now on several watchlists, he gives off a vibe that we'll probably see him in a future That Chapter episode.
You put out all this content and it's absolutely fantastic. But we all know this has to take a toll on your mind. Researching and editing all this incredibly dark content cannot be easy. Thank you for everything you do.
That poor girl. I can’t imagine the nightmares she experiences daily.😢
Sometimes when I see its a case I'm super familiar with, I don't care to watch. This kid though, she suffered such horror, and she was so smart, she made sure the police could get what they needed. She wasn't going to disappear, she wasn't going to let him get away with his crimes.
Mike just dropped a “See these nuts.” 😂 I had to rewind to make sure I wasn’t hearing things. Well played, Michael. Well played!
I drink a crazy amount of tea watching you, Mr Ballen and Coffehouse Crime, and I regret nothing 😂
i still think about Jayme every once in a while, i don’t know why, but my heart absolutely goes out to out her, God bless you Sweetie🙏❤️❤️💯🙏
I love listening to you! Your podcasts are great in the car among other things ❤
Thank you so much for listening to the pods!
I love the pods. I missed a few which is great as I can binge when I have time ❤
Yes, so entertaining. The chemistry between you and Keith makes them even better. Thanks.
What “other” things are you talking about in the car?
Some people like to rub stinky’s
I was on lunch. Perfect.
Upon hearing Mike say; Jayme is a true hero! She rescued herself...
I began to cry for all "OUR" children who tried to free themselves from the Disgusting Monsters who's taken them. And sadly never made it. Also the children who were to young and terrified to understand and know how to escape. My heart truly weeps for them.
