Thank you for the respect you show these women. It's so sad that their families wouldn't do the same.

[@IconoclastX]

it's sad they sold themselves for money and put themselves in a position to be killed.

[@oyindamolaojo8458]

As a Nigerian, I applaud you Adrian.

[@Killer_KT]

Don't be surprised that he confessed so quickly and complied with them so easily afterwards, police in West Africa have been known to have some very... effective interrogation methods

[@mirandalovett6063]

Thank you for treating these cases with such gentleness and compassion. It's really comforting to watch a true crime channel that cares about sex workers and talks about them like humans. RIP 💔

[@MissR6]

I must say your facts about different places is highly appreciated. I literally do learn something new every video. Great edit and case coverage.

[@nombinintlahla8325]

So very nice to hear yet another coverage of an African case.... There's a developing story in SA of a man who is suspected to have killed 6 sex workers & is currently in police custody .... I hope you'll cover it the near future... Thanks Adrian👏

[@yointhebedroom83]

Bless how you describe the victims and the respect you’ve shown these girls 💗

[@BakedRiceCracker]

Yay! A new video just when I’m trying to force myself to start cleaning, this will make it easier lol. Thanks for the frequent uploads, Adrian! Hope you and everyone else here are well and having a good week! 😊

He always says, "Sit back and grab a cup of coffee." And I'm like, "I have to wash these dishes!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Have a nice weekend ya'll!!!

[@imaimajim3296]

Thank you Adrian for covering this crime in my country. It was a very dark period when he was on the prowl. It was scary time with death bodies surfacing every 3 to 5 day

[@jameswilder7649]

I think the Nigerian method of humiliating the killer in front of the public is great. 👍🏼

[@Right_Said_Brett]

I disagree. I think it's messed up. I'm certainly not defending the killer; he's a POS. However, I got some White Bear (from Black Mirror) vibes from that footage; being that said episode is a satire of mass spectatorship and vengeance.

[@judeodumamwen9160]

@@Right_Said_Brett Uhm.. There's a reason for the public humiliation. Nigeria has seen an awful lot of jungle justice over the years. So many alleged criminals have been killed my mobs and most of them were burnt alive. The reason? The people don't believe they can get justice from the police. In the past, criminals have found their way back to the streets without any jail time. Hence, the people resorted to getting justice themselves. So to help restore the trust of the people in the police, they parade suspects and grant public interviews before they're charged to court.

[@Right_Said_Brett]

@@judeodumamwen9160 I understand that. Better policing is required. Burning people alive, in an act of mob justice, without the process of due trial, is messed up. I can guarantee you that several dozen hundred innocent people have been burned to death via such acts of vigilantism.

[@miola2083]

Omg, the public shaming part… 😳 I really appreciate the global serial killer cases.

[@temperingtantrum]

Thank you for your diligence Adrian. You show the victim(s), rather than celebrating the criminal.

[@anony1002]

Thank you for covering this story. Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬

[@tooshay4me]

It breaks my heart when I hear of such cases. When people have no respect for life, they don’t deserve to live. Thank you for sharing this story and for doing such a great job. You are worthy of the job you’re doing and you do it well.

[@osospecialvixx]

You do something that most other true crime channels don’t, you actually give us stories from around the world. It keeps me coming back. As a Nigerian, I appreciate the way you spoke on the country. There are many issues, but the country is full of wonderful people, who are kind and a vibrant culture. Thank you

[@jachikeamalu]

Finally, a case from Nigeria. Thank you Adrien 😊

[@sarahcullis1464]

Thank you for naming & caring for these girls, its so refreshing to to hear. You are a lovely chap who's empathy shows.

[@NurseWright-mp5gp]

Love how you mentioned all their names at the end 🙏🏾

[@smsabala6668]

I'm South African, I'm glad you covered this case and true facts about Nigeria 🌹

[@LuxeMindsetVibes]

It's so sad that the families of the victims didn't show up to court due to the stigma of SW 💔

[@Hansgame]

nah, its understandable. wo wants to be connected to a filthy sexworker? its nothing good, and in the end it was the reason these women got killed in the first place. sexwork is bad and always will be. you need jesus.

[@DroneStrike1776]

Stigma? So you're saying there shouldn't be a stigma against them at all? So explain why Nigeria has the highest per capita of babies born with HIV in the world. No shit there's going to be a stigma when there's a sexual transmitted disease crisis in that country. A country that women are twice more likely to have syphilis than men. Why don't you look at a broader picture and not based on your emotions.

[@HenryC04]

Prostitution and sex work should be stigmatized, but the families should have looked past that and showed up

[@tinateshale7447]

@@HenryC04 why ?? Why should be stigmatized who are you to judge and stigmatized anyone saint?

@@tinateshale7447 I mean morality isn’t relative. It’s immoral to sell your body. That doesn’t mean that we should abandon people who do it, but stigma can be a good thing sometimes

[@Vaxovillion]

Your format just keeps improving I think you have storytelling in a documentary setting down to a science. Thank you for all your hard work and giving the a big picture view of the area before zooming into the incident itself it helps so much with perspective.

[@kathryncumberland]

I love that you do stories from all around the world. As an American, my KZbin feed tends to be very US-centric, so I appreciate when my favorite creators (which of course includes you) do stories from other countries.

[@DagosArts]

Adrian, you really do bring me to tears every time you humanize the victims. I cannot thank you enough to be such a great person to give these victims dignitydespite what society tends to make them out to be.

[@r.k.d.6111]

Adrian, I've been with you from Day 1. I'm so proud of you and how far you've come. The growth in presentation, confidence, diction and professionalism is an awesome thing to see. Keep up the great job!
