Even Pablo seems like an upstanding dude. He gets dumped and still acts classy.

[@Trammiliin_nr2]

This is what I thought, too. Valentina was so trusting as she grew up in a loyal family with no experience of such manipulation, narcissism and misogynism. After watching True Crime on a daily basis, I've come across many cases of young, trusting women being killed by narcissistic misogynists lately. Just yesterday, I watched a video about a woman of the same age being killed by a narc monster. Both women had the same thing in common- they grew up in a loving and trusting family and fell into manipulative, controlling, depraved men. Both were ambitious, hard-working, kind, highly sociable and widely loved. With narcissism and misogynism proliferating, it seems there has to be some syllabus at schools on how to spot red flags of your partner being manipulative, controlling and borderline abusive. It could save so many people from abusive relationships that might end up deadly. And it does not only affect women, men can also fall into manipulations.

Hello, I always feel intrigued by your crime investigation series, may Valentina rest in peace. 😢

[@tealabelanger4293]

Your warm and respectful style on each case towards the victim and their loved ones is truly a gift 💝 I absolutely love how you also touch on the beauty and local life in the region for each of your videos, as well 🤗 Thank you for all your (and Nero's) hard work!

I have to say; having been to Colombia once and speaking Spanish since I was seven (I’m 37 now, lol), your description in the intro about the country was great. I’ve seen some interviews with Colombian celebrities-like Maluma & Sofia Vergara-and they’ve all mentioned how depressingly predictable it is when interviewers (or just people) mention their country’s history with cocaine, suppression of the people, violence, & the drug wars of the past. As if that’s all the country is known for? How ignorant. There are so many famous musicians, both modern & old school, plus thousands of plant species and varied ecosystems. From the tropical rainforests of Chocó on the Pacific coast to the high Andes mountains, the Caribbean north coast, Barranquilla… it’s beautiful!! Many of our most popular trending houseplants grow wild there as well! But the animals are extremely diverse in Colombia, from tiny poison arrow frogs to mountain lions, jaguars & ocelots. Monkeys, sloths, tapirs, otters, anteaters, deer, snakes… it’s endless. Plus, it’s consistently the #1 country for total species of birds yet it’s hardly the biggest nation on the planet! It’s also #2 for biodiversity, as in total number of plant & animal species-only beaten by Brazil at #1. A wondrous country for sure.. So your description was nice! 🇨🇴 ❤

What a treat! Coffeehouse crime as I get up and start my day. ☕️🍳🥯 I work till 6am, so this is perfect! HNY to all. Praying for Valentina’s mother who now has to work & take care of the other children. Young women need to be careful for these wolves in sheep’s clothing. RIP Valentina 🕊️✝️🕊️

Hi Adrian and friends I just wanted to let you know that wondered for a week or two why I wasn’t getting messages that you had videos coming out and I had been unsubscribed. Trust me, I would never unsubscribe to this channel. I love it. So just to let you know, you might want to make another announcement to inform people that for whatever reason, we are being unsubscribed from KZbin channels. By the way, happy new year and I hope you’re having a great one.

I have been associating the name Bogota with coffee ever since watching the "Gaviota" soap opera in the early 90s. I still remember the packaging of that brand in the show and how it became popular. Sending love to Colombia.

[@pattibrown1809]

Clearly Valentina was a beautiful person, inside and out. Many times caring people are victims of narcissists. Very sad.

[@denniswatson6622]

Adrian skipped a few details that were in the news here in Colombia. Let’s be clear, she was cheating on him. Not that she deserved what he did, but she took money he sent her and went on vacation with another man to Aruba. He’d hired a private investigator to follow them.

[@The_torero]

​@@denniswatson6622..He should have been smarter. She was way younger and more attractive than he was. He was delusional to think she'd not be attracted to men closer to her own age.

[@denniswatson6622]

@@The_torero make no mistake, I totally agree with you. I’m a gringo living in Bogota right now, if a guy like John is being approached by a woman like Valentina, he should have been very suspicious. He was naive and stupid and he basically deserved what he got. He also wasn’t smart enough to move on, now he’s going to prison for a woman he obviously didn’t care at all for or he wouldn’t have left her dismembered and in a dumpster. A complete fool all around.

Welcome back Adrian! Can't want to see what's in store for the Coffeehouse, thank you for your amazing content

[@SnowWhite717_]

Adrian, the one thing I’ll always admire about you is how you can manage to find these cases, research and present them week after week for us. It has to be mentally and emotionally exhausting for you. The reason I say this is because this one this week really got to me. This guy is a special kind of monster. The way he treated his first wife and what he did to her plus leaving her and the children (and one special needs child at that!) destitute then moving on? Stomaching all that is too much to handle but then to research Valentina… she sounded like an incredible young woman who had the world at her feet. A loving family, a kind and generous heart, creative nature, energy and remarkable beauty made her a memorable woman. For him to take her away and for you to find the details out is a lot to process too. So thanks Adrian, I really appreciate everything you do because I’m sure these cases affect your life. ❤ Rest in Peace Valentina. The world is a bit darker without your bright light. ❤

[@Sofi.9698]

It was a very famous case here in Mexico. Thanks for making this video you're the best!! Please speak about Ingrid Escamilla, it's a case which shocked the whole country.

[@24get24give]

in a sad, sick way. perhaps abandoning his kids to their good parent was the kindest thing his animal could do for them, he's clearly not cut out for a Father of the Year award, and at least this way she was spared endless custody and child support [that he was never going to pay anyway] hearings which can be brutal and take a toll on your nerves, time and peace

People don't realize the more you try to control someone the more they're gonna go away from you the more they're gonna wanna do that even when a girl does it to a guy no matter how attractive she is the more the guy's going to want to go away and resist it If you fail you can't live without someone or without knowing they every waking movement that means it's time for you to split up because you can't rely on someone else for your every waking moment of happiness

Adrian always describes situations in the most polite innocent ways, I respect him for it. But that's kinda obvious, a young girl looking for sugar daddy, meets old rich guy who pays for everything so she could live comfortably. A transactional relationship goes south and ends badly. All girls need to understand risks instead of dreaming of a princess life. Old dudes with money who scout for barely mature air headed girls are definitely not normal, there's always something sus about them. But hey... Money before everything I guess...

[@nelsonmuntz3194]

Lots of red flags with this guy - abandoned his wife and children including the son who had cancer, chasing younger women when he’s only in his 30s suggests a controlling person as does the sugar baby sites, the private investigator thing, the advice to the soon to be married man, following Andrew Tate - all these things show his views of others and women in particular. Poor Valentina, my heart goes out to her family
