Crime Beat: A Monster in Uniform Pt. 2 | S4 E14

[@cathimummery6873]

The detective is the best ever. He’s honest yet to the point. His voice is very soothing and he’s very smart. He’s the best

[@Tassie85]

Jim Smyth is a legend and respected the world over. Not only did he conduct a surgical interview with Williams, he found Tori Stafford when no one else could and interrogated both of her killers. He has taught at and his talents have been studied by Quantico, Scotland Yard and other illustrious justice bodies. Jim Smyth is incredible. A great Canadian.

[@amyh5013]

Yes, many Chinese know him. He is famous.

[@MsPhoebus]

Agree.

[@aym280]

Agree! Kept rewinding in Tori's episode to see his face. Very good detective! Sadly, most just draw their wages.

[@ThatWasFun22]

If they had no evidence he had no chance , he ain't good 80 break ins and two murders and rapes two other assaults , it was evidence from witnesses and found by investigators that got him not the interviewer there sprout

He’s the best of the best.

Williams house in Tweed should have been demolished. So sad Larry Jones was accused for Williams dastardly deeds. Snuffing out two beautiful souls, Jessica and Marie. Jessica's brother is a hero and put a stop to Williams. Williams had escalated and more women would have been murdered had he not been stopped.

[@arolf2524]

I felt sick listening to the way Larry Jones was interrogated and his wife too!! Those police should be sacked and their pensions disabled. I couldn't quite catch everything that was said, but it also appeared that at first the police just shrugged off Jessica's brother and cousin when they first went to them with the photos of the tire and shoe prints. I have watched a few of these Crime Beat videos now and the police lack of interest and disregard for victims is just incomprehensible.

[@nomanvardag1]

The Tweed home has been demolished.

[@sega62s]

finally we get to see the detective that made the interview, seems like a great guy , love the way he conduct the interrogation 🍻

[@annalisavajda252]

Yeah it's really something how he can use that encouraging tone of voice and say okay to keep him talking no hint of disgust or scolding must be a bit difficult to suppress his actual reaction to what he's hearing or else maybe he's desensitized I don't know he said he was only 50% suspicious at first so the confession is probably a bit of a shock.

[@sega62s]

[@rubytuesday5412]

Yes, I've seen the full interrogation of this monster, it was so long and drawn out, it felt like pulling teeth! That said, Jim Smyth did a masterful job at pulling those teeth! Praise to Jim for keeping it together when he must have felt like screaming at this monster. I've since heard, that interrogation is now being used as a tool in training new up and comers.

Jim Smyth should get the Order of Canada for his superb interview of this murderer. I wouldn't be surprised if he also needed counselling afterwards for the affects on his own psyche!

[@pokerladyhoule9710]

WHY BECAUSE HE'S DOING HIS JOB. FK THAT

[@T.T.E.O.T.]

​@PokerLady houle um what....doing your job doesn't mean you might not see some shit that gets to you that you may need some therapy for...hence why police departments have their own therapist.

[@deebaker9199]

So inspiring to hear the community folk looking for positives to move forward, must be so hard to keep faith in human goodness in this situation...that's very powerful and I'm greatful the way you guys covered the story 😢

[@annalisavajda252]

The other thing I wonder is why if an offender owns a couple of properties and maybe has a sizable bank account too their assets are not seized too as retribution for the victims and their families? He's in jail where he belongs but people were traumatized had to pay for funerals counselling etc. out of their own pockets too?

[@Lizzie-h3j]

His wife likely earned more but anything he paid for should of been seized.

[@JohnCritch-tf4mb]

He made a deal his wife still gets his airforce pension.

[@Lizzie-h3j]

When he's confessing to killing MarieFrance Como and how her cat wouldnt stop staring at him and Jim Smyth says " so cays can sense evil" it gave me chills. He's responsible for more than the 2 murders he's been convicted of. He wasn't giving a thought to his wife or the military when he was upto his evil antics!

[@fernfreeman1729]

Had the police officer who spotted Russell's vehicle parked in the vacant field next door to Jessica Lloyd, while he was hiding in the woods waiting for her, Jessica would be alive today as the plates would have shown them to belong to Colonel Russell Williams, which would triggered many alerts ⚠️ and calls.

[@AT-cy7im]

Well I don’t know about this so called good work by the police See back 2009 many many people went to the police to say they had a breakin and s.x toys and underwear was stolen Several women ( one working on the base) had been assaulted, beaten photographed, they went to the police….. who didn’t even put ink to paper !!!!!!!! One of these ladies who had been severely assaulted sue the police for not taking her case and for accusing her of being hysterical and making up stories. So …. Had the police actually done their job …. Well these would have been no deaths This documentary glosses over the fact that 2 random dudes out late the night Jess was taken, they saw the offenders cat by Jessica’s house and informed the police 3-4 days after Then police went to look etc finally set up roadblocks but it was the work of the community that made it possible for the monster to be caught …. Not the police, who have a lot to answer for when it comes to misogynistic attitudes and crimes against women and girls.

Actually,two brothers driving a truck past Jessica’s house were the first to be suspicious of a vehicle in the field by her house and alerted the police who then inspected the tire tracks and set up the road block.

[@AT-cy7im]

Exactly! Also This documentary glosses over the many mistakes the police made by not addressing the many break ins and stolen items or the assaulted ladies who went to the police but were not taken seriously I know one of these ladies had a massive breakdown and sued the police who had treated her appallingly.

[@MaryJane-qq9mm]

Ok so it's time to stop giving certain people a pass. Just because he worked in the military, doesn't mean he was a good person. Having a good job doesn't make you a good person! So many MMIWG cases go unsolved because of this thinking. It's rare that a MMIWG case is solved! The only time they seem interested in solving a case, is the one's that happen by a partner. Because indigenous woman also have the risk of domestic violence like any woman, but the cases that go unsolved do so because they don't try very hard to solve those cases.

Textbook psychopath. You find far too many of them in top brass positions, as CEOs, leading surgeons and so on. They wear the mask of normality so well and with ease. But inside, no empathy, no compassion, no anything that makes an individual a human.

Exactly. Psychopaths have a lot of the traits that companies look for in CEOs & other top brass..

From what I have heard, he is in protective custody - 23.5 hours a day locked in a 6x9 cell, 30 minutes for showering or phone calls. He is in Millhaven, in the same high security facility as Bernardo and other prolific killers. Apparently he is not treated any differently than these men. He does still receive a hefty pension from the military but inmates are not permitted to access external bank accounts. He has been sued, successfully, by several of his victims and divorced from his wife - hopefully, his wealth is taken up by these processes.
