Crime Beat: Tori Stafford - Never Forget Part 1 | S2 E13

[@idahomountainlover754]

People who harm children should rot in jail. No parole, no exceptions.

[@lisasteigerwald6033]

My heart broke when she said “she was calling my name for help” So she thought she was on her side and would stop him from hurting her 🥺 How awful on top of what happened to then realize no one was going to help her. I’m so upset.

[@dellahicks7231]

Tori's dad Rodney become such an advocate, not just in Tori's case, but to change legislation as a whole. An average man thrust into the spotlight, amazing what a father's love can do.

[@alicemarksman8888]

Imagine helping murder a little girl for your 'boyfirend', only for him to say that your relationship wasn't even that serious.

[@ginger7344]

This is difficult to even watch, I can’t imagine how scared she had to have been. I hope Victoria’s cries haunt Terri forever. Hell is way too good for Those unspeakable monsters.

[@rebecculousrk]

I will never understand how anyone could plot to harm a child intentionally. Having done something this horrible, I cannot fathom how a person could keep it together to successfully hide their involvement. Children invoke feelings of endearment and protectiveness in the normal healthy adult. The person who would harm a child has a diseased mind, a poisoned soul, or no soul at all.

[@wendymathews1030]

There is no possible punishment harsh enough for these 2 monsters. This is the absolute sickest crime; what that poor, poor little girl endured is enough to make you sick. That woman, how could she be a party to this? Rest with Jesus, precious Tori.

[@loricarter2394]

My heart goes out to this family, especially Tori’s little brother, his eulogy tore my heart out. I just can’t imagine how hard it is for him to go thru life thinking that he didn’t keep his little sister safe. I send him much love and positivity.

[@kathydebruyne485]

This took place a half hour from where I live. To this day, I think of her. My favourite colour is also purple. I don’t believe in the death penalty, but in this case I would make an exception. The horror this sweet little girl must have endured is simply beyond my comprehension. Rest In Peace, little one - you are with the angels now.

[@taetwy4026]

Love how Tori was described by her dad and mom "a playful little buggar" and "a little hot mess" (that precious little description made me giggle and made my heart smile) so heartbreaking that they will not be able to make even more lovely memories of/with their beautiful loving daughter especially of her getting fully dressed on Sunday mornings to go to church with her grandmother with no morning struggles to wake her up (what a lovely, delightful and heartbreaking memory) RIP and continue to now enjoy and delight in endless Sundays beautiful...

[@N3wbMa5t3r]

No chance of parole FOR 25 YEARS? So these monsters will be eligible for parole eventually. Sickening.

[@p.n8861]

Why was there parole. No parole. We cannot fix evil.

[@ChloesColdEars111]

I will say this though, if my child was killed by someone with a claw hammer, after they did these sick things, I would be unable to control myself from using the same hammer on them. How could anyone do anything this awful to anyone, let alone an innocent little girl.

[@foxximami]

This was beautifully done. Thank you for your respectful and honest portrayal of this beautiful girl and her family. May he rot in prison until he dies.

[@CarniverousChar]

Both of them!

[@RaeBattleRapsMood]

Imagine waking up to remember your child disappeared the day before...a whole night has passed & still nothing. A sick feeling boy!🥺😢

[@_letstartariot]

She would have been 20 years old this year. You know it’s a unique case when a police chief starts crying on camera. RIP sweet girl ❤️

[@Bernie3000]

The Tori Stafford tragedy haunts me. It is so heartbreaking and so damn maddening too.

[@ginger7344]

There’s no way in hell she was his first victim. I wonder how many other lil angels he haunts.

[@katylarson5493]

Crime Beat is a hidden gem! I LOVE this show!

[@DystopianOverture]

Her mum deserves an apology for the crap she was put through.

[@roxrocks7023]

From London ON and I remember when this happened. Had she not confessed to Toris murder, her mother would have been police target #1. The rumors about drug addiction took over the case. What a shame. A tragic loss.

[@evelynburton532]

He should never be released. He’ll do it again for sure. He’s sick for sure.

[@jimmydeats9901]

The old "this never happens here in this town" comment? Every time, no matter where bad things happen

[@lumenpierce8583]

I feel terrible for her mom. Her little girl was missing and people accused her! That’s too much to handle.

[@SarahAndrews24]

Tori would have been 20 now, that monster took her before she had a chance to grow up, I was devestated by this case as it happened all those years ago, Rest in Peace little angel, monsters are real.

[@michaelhoggarth89]

This is a child she's talking about..A child that she gave to the monster.... How dare she have the audacity to cry.... I'm so sorry to the parents and the family... It crippled me watching this...I can't begin to know how it was/is for the family...RIP Tori...😥💔

[@Hallowworth2]

“Passed away?” She was murdered!

[@jewels3596]

Poor little girl. This is why most people don't allow their kids to walk home alone. 😭😭😭

[@nicole4508]

I can't believe Terri is getting out. Like, I'm so so furious.

[@cocoa-nuts2670]

I followed this back when it was in the news. I used to live in Woodstock. I remember hoping they would find her safe and sound. I always remember all the horrible things people said about Tara. I cried through this whole thing. I'm so sorry that her family had to go through this. Tara struck a cord when she said as a mother and the bond they shared she thought she would know what happened to Tori. I felt the exact same thing when my daughter was a victim of a horrible tragedy. I Will never forget her. I worked for an Indigdnous Women's Organization and there was an overwhelming outcry when we heard she was in an Indigenous healing lodge in BC. She didn't belong there for big reasons, including she offered poor Tori up for a sacrifice as if she was leading a lamb to slaughter. Yes she had a sick cruel childhood but you don't do this as an excuse. As for the perverse POS I can't stand to even see his face. To Tori's family I send my sincere sympathy, I don't know how you even survived through this. I know many people will never forget your baby angel.

[@LorJuT]

Toris story reached all across Canada. Those two shouldn’t be given zero relief from their punishment that will never equate to their crime. She’s with Jesus, never to grow old ♥️🌷

[@PRIYA-ic4yd]

I’m bawling 😭 My heart hurts for Tori, her family and all of those that knew and loved her. . . 💔

[@sweetfaith2011]

There should never ever be any possibility off parole especially for a child killer. I hope they never get a moment of peace for the rest of their miserable and pathetic lives.

[@misterslats]

It's just the wording. It doesn't mean they are getting parole. These two won't be paroled. One reason for wording a sentence this way is that a prisoner who thinks they have a chance of getting out some day comports themselves differently in prison. People who know they aren't getting out of prison have nothing to lose and have no reservations about killing guards or cellmates. Lifers with bad attitudes are problem prisoners. It's partly a psychological ploy to sentence this way and it's also used in most European countries, Australia, Japan, etc.

[@IndigoYouTube]

The mother deserves an apology...

[@MaidensWorldOfWax]

Remember this and my wife and I tearing up the day she went missing and again when she was found. No one deserves this fate - no one. Its heartbreaking and could have happened to any of us parents. Well never ever forget Tori. May she rest in peace.

[@fayeray6797]

What is up with Canada's lenient laws, total BS. Life should mean just that.

[@Disgruntled_Canadian]

I was 8 months pregnant when this happened with my first child (a girl) and I remember being so scared for that little girl and hoping they would find her unharmed, but when my daughter was a month old found out they found Tori 😔 I will never forget her story. I thought how could there be monsters out there, so close to where we live that would do that to a precious child? I tell my girls all the time that these monsters exist and to never leave school with anyone but us or the school bus, and if I drop them off I don’t leave until I see them in the school or with a teacher. Tori’s story just might save other children from making the same mistake. RIP beautiful girl. You did not deserve what happened to you 💔 Btw, it doesn’t matter if she actually did the killing or not. They both drove to the Home Depot to buy a weapon and garbage bags, the both premeditated this. End of story!

[@lostcontrol1981]

Brings back all the memories from the past for me. I really like the final wrap-up this show gives to all the cases I remember watching on the news

[@india1422]

“ you’ve been so brave “. That police officer must have been choking on those words

[@CammieInOz]

I watch so many docos of horrendous crimes that not much should shock, but this case has angered and saddened me so much. Sweet little girl, her life taken by two vile monsters. How a woman especially can participate in such an evil act is beyond my understanding.

[@Tony_Kidvaski]

Please post part 2 to KZbin soon. I am watching from Ireland and cannot see it on Canadian TV.

[@Christabum12]

Rip cousin u are dearly missed rest easy:'(

[@tinasharp370]

This makes me so sad, I feel nauseated. I cannot comprehend how somebody can be so entirely evil. I'm glad he got the maximum sentence but at the same time, 25 years is nothing.

[@sandywuerch]

We live 2 hours from Woodstock and can no longer even look at the Town's Name when we pass it on the way to Toronto.I have to look away.This happening has broke my heart and I do not know how her parents can still breath.He can never be released.He just can't.

[@trixr4kids223]

I will never forget this beautiful innocent girl. I think of this story often. The people who did this act, well there’s a place for them below hell. May Tory’s beautiful spirit live on.

[@krisbest6405]

To hurt the Mum even more is so evil, how many sincere apologies did she get? My ex used that rubbish, he was vile but without it he was vile as well. Sex offenders in the area, really? Thats what deserted islands are made for! ,filled with rats, snakes and alligators.

[@belindaleepacete5183]

A lot of bad people in the world ...... You'd be surprised , they walk among us ......... Keep your children safe

[@lateceashaw8679]

These kind of people get on my nerves for real because you wasn't crying when you was doing all the kidnapping buying shit to kill her and all that so stop the FAKE ass tears now them tears are for her getting caught not that little angel who's light you just sniffed out for no damn reason

[@Dischicky]

I remember this happening when I was younger 😔 I remember living on the farm and there were helicopters flying for weeks looking for her and it made me so scared to even be outside at that time because I was scared of the same thing happening to me or my siblings

[@kevinhamilton3791]

God bless you and your siblings Alexandria Louisiana 318 with love

[@acgillespie]

It still can.. It pays to pay attention.. Phones are a big distraction eh?

[@gabe-po9yi]

This shows you just how far-reaching the effect of a monster’s crime. Other parents live in fear, other kids live in fear. It can change the lives of non-victims because of the horror and terror.

[@emmalouise7884]

Oh Gosh her poor brother 💔 my heart goes out to her family.

[@pamelasue8396]

Something similar happened to a little girl named Melissa Brannon in the 80s in my hometown. I never forgot her.

[@Hunnie_B]

Thank you for the heads up Crime Beat 👍👍

[@faykouri1162]

Absolutely horrific, these monsters should be done away with!

[@raphaellavictoria01]

Kidnapped children are typically killed within 24h of abduction. Within mere hours of abduction, more often. It's tragically incredible that the father, and this other man, said they still held out hope, for over a month. Much more than hope (hope dies last, that's normal, inevitable), but in case of the father, almost an expectation. Didn't the police tell him what I, a true crime viewer, just said, that the chances of an abducted child to be found alive one month (!) after abduction are slim? of course they shouldnt completely dash their hopes, but they should prepare them for what's basically inevitably coming. 24h. Usually much, much less. That is all the time they really have. Beyond that, it's over. Adults are sometimes held in captivity, for sexual reasons, but abducted children are killed within 24h, typically. That's statistics.

[@sarahnichols4253]

Why?! I just don't understand. How do those detectives not punch those 2 monsters until they are see how they feel. This case breaks my heart💔 Such a senseless murder.

[@waynejohnson1786]

I’m from Ontario and I was only a couple years older than Tori when this happened. This case has always stuck with me.., RIP Toris

[@sandrawehrley4212]

This seems like copycat Paul Bernardo and Karla Hamolka.....so disgusting. If they weren't caught they would have done it again. Awful!!

[@Isabella-nh5dm]

I used to say that 'they fool you by walking upright' but I have realised that isn't true. Animals do not do things like this. These two? There isn't any word to describe them.

[@AshleyCroft_atomicangel86]

this is my worst nightmare and the hardest confession i've ever had to hear

[@shelbygrl29]

I had just moved away from this area two years before this happened. My girls aren't much older than Tori. My heart breaks for the parents and family. 💔 RIP ANGEL 😇 💔 🙏

[@heidh07]

I lived a half hour from where this happened. It shocked and tore the community apart. R.I.P sweet angel.

[@hibaqjaamac1432]

Here from celinaspookyboo’s tic tok. This is so sad.

[@a-moe4932]

Bloody heartbreaking... Sending our love from Australia Tori and your family xoxo

[@youaresus1777]

Today is Toris 22nd birthday, hard to believe how much time has passed, so sad 😞 👼

[@beautifuldisaster9784]

RIP beautiful girl ❤ I organized the vigil for Tori in Brantford. I still think about this angel and her family all the time

[@snowfox3012]

Waiting eagerly for Crime Beat 🌸

[@myadior787]

We sit,we walk passed,we even ask them question and we dont know that he/she is a DEMON IN HUMAN CLOTHING... Lord,have mercy. Such a sad story.....S.I.P Tory.

[@patriciapadilla2022]

I'm far from being a cop lover. But these people these men and women these divers these officers these Detectives, all deserve the utmost respect when it comes to finding missing children whether they be found alive or not. It's just got to be a horrible feeling to look at a child dead. May God be with all these people in law enforcement and thank God they are able to do a job that most of us would not even consider.

[@whitese7en448]

Jim Smith is the same detective that brilliantly coaxed a confession out of Russell Williams.

[@loveorangeToledotribe]

This made me cry 😢 but i just cant understand how the criminals was able to take Tori at school ground? Was there nobody scorting the kids to their buses?

[@Hunnie_B]

I missed the Live show, but watched the replay.......absolutely heartbreaking 😔 Hoping to catch your next Live, thank you Crime Beat 👍👍

[@woman_warrior3344]

This traumatized me 💔 I'll be unpacking this in a therapist office for the rest of my life 💔😭💔

[@annamarielewis7078]

The good cops are always the emotional ones, the ones who really care. 😘Too bad the bad ones keep multiplying ☹️

[@gabe-po9yi]

Whoa, the criteria for an Amber Alert needs to change. I get alerts on my phone even for suspected parental abductions, which usually means the child is safe and will be found.

[@bridgetts4767]

I can't stop crying for this beautiful baby girl. Rip little angel 🙏🏽

[@AnthonyWithington]

I can't even comprehend what's actually going through these animals minds..

[@nettieb7918]

Seeing this story filled me with sadness.

[@leeannalovestherain]

This little girl will always be remembered as pure love with sparkles and butterflies and tiny glowing fire flies.She is a part of Canadian history strange as it may seem its true . Love love little angel Tori

[@Cochise6666]

Why parole possible after ANY length of time for God's sake?

[@noonecares6592]

Please please please do NOT let your child walk ALONE!!!

[@Joanla1954]

Murder? (ton of bricks) Poor dad and mum! 😭😭😭😭😭 Rest forever safe with Jesus baby girl!

[@mayani777]

Such a heartbreaking story. RIP little girl. 😢

[@lynnettedickinson7865]

[@bulouvusonawalowalo1711]

A big thank you to the police force and great team work. Cannot do without the police force.

[@maryellis1238]

How awful What kind of animal would do this what a disgusting woman to help that man. Wonderful piece Crime beat

[@carolinerowles5951]

I've watched most of your crime uploads and I'm so grateful for the great content......for free! Thank you 👍

[@realalldway-raw4996]

The kid is missing, what else do they need as a qualification to put an amber alert. What the heck?! That really makes me very upset.

[@HollieMM]

My thoughts are with this family as the anniversary of this horrible day is approaching. Rest in peace sweet Angel!!!

[@amandamerklinger]

I was 6 months pregnant with my first daughter when this happened. It horrified me and still does to this day. Thinking about what she must have gone through just was so upsetting so I can't imagine what her family went through. I sent prayers up for this family many times 🙏

[@boomds5602]

You can’t let kids that age walk home from school alone these days

[@sanrioprincesslivi]

To this day this stories haunts me , I remember seeing her poster on the city buses , may she Rest In Peace💜💜💜

[@gamecubeus]

OPP Det-Sgt Jim Smyth is such a valuable asset he would go on to interview Russell Williams and both of these are close to my home.

[@erinetnerrot1626]

Horrific for her mom on every level.

[@Hmeda20]

When the interviews start with it's a parent’s nightmare. My heart sunk.

[@annetteslife]

What pisses me off is is that Terri-Lynne McClintic is in a low security club fed type prison! I am Canadian and this pissed me off

[@candisjohnson9289]

I watch Crime beat all of the time and all of these cases are horrific and extremely sad but this one literally 💔😔😢 brought me to tears! These ppl are sick they are literally Satan in human form 😒😤 I feel so heartbroken 💔😞

[@neweverymorningmercy3491]

I still think of Tori and her family. I've said many a prayers for them over the years.

[@nancyrahif8442]

It’s never a “simply” missing child!!

[@adelledicangtelino1965]

Love this videos..sad but lots of lesson learned

[@recoverystar31msorko71]

Love you and miss you Tara 💕 I'm so proud of you my friend! You are a beacon of love and strength. Tori will live forever in all of our hearts. I'm so sorry to hear about James. But your one of the courageous people I know. Thank you for sharing your story about your beautiful baby girl. She is wearing her wings well and dancing with the angels.
