[@Convicted_Melon]

You sure about that? Pretty sure Daniel was a psycho piece of garbage from the very beginning.

[@MiaMore.]

EXACTLY! Not only did she instigate in the beginning but she could've prevented this by saying something. She has to be a pretty twisted person herself to have seen what she did and not only not tell authorities but continue to meet and speak with him ( she wasn't even scared that he wouldn't do the same thing to her just for knowing) she was complicit in this whole thing and should have been locked up as an accomplice!!

[@missondo4887]

I was going to comment the same thing, Sylvia is evil

[@Allahakbah]

wait how was she evil? in the beginning she told him monika would take over the apartment and i mean it was true i dont get that as being jealous i mean she was wrong asf for not telling the cops anything but she was right the whole time about monikas motive plus she had nun to do with monikas murder so huh?

[@Msboochie2]

@@Allahakbah I agree that she was indeed correct in her warning about Monica’s intentions. However, she could have warned Monica about his threats. I could possibly be convinced that Sylvia probably didn’t believe he would really do it. However, once she stumbled onto the gruesome scene, any normal person would immediately call the police. She saw the evidence, but instead of calling 911, she called him up to get a play by play confession, yet went about life as normal, still not calling the police. Leaving Monica’s family and classmates to wonder about her whereabouts the whole time, meanwhile he was serving her up to homeless people. He could have done the very same to others including her. She continued to fraternize with him. She only confessed to knowing after the police tricked her into thinking they already knew. Left up to Sylvia, Monica would never have gotten any semblance of justice, and her loved ones might probably still be wondering what happened to her. Why she wasn’t prosecuted is beyond me. Why you need an explanation for this is also confusing. No offense, since you’re confused, and God knows I don’t want to offend someone who’d be confused by something so clear cut.

I think Sylvia was jealous of Monika and stood around waiting for her to be killed. Thats why she left for the weekend . Then she came back saw the head and the blood and didn't panick. Instead she went to the phone booth and called him to say you finally did it!!!!!!! and didn't report it to the cops. The moral of the story here is stay the hell outta New York period ..

[@cherlona8922]

That’s what I’m wondering what her charges were! Crazy

[@vhg8638]

She was spiteful. Also even the first in command, playing the role of minion as she relayed all this information back to Monica. She just watched and enjoyed from from a distance the fire she stroked. another theory that just occurred: Monika is the satanic friend. or at least knows the satanic friend. Whichever it was, definitely helped divert police attention from her. Sylvia was probaby in danger of losing her home as well. P.S. There are different types of "satanics". Those who believe in the "devil". Those who are "atheists", you could say. They dont believe in a devil. They use the term as a literary device to poke fun at organized religion, its also self advertising. Both would probably be ok with killing to preserve their self, espedially in their home.

I hung out with that guy, Daniel Rakowitz, in Tompkin's Square Park a few times. During the late 80s/early 90s, I was living a few blocks away from the park on 13th Street, between Avenues A & B. I was always in Tompkins. I always remembered him because he looked like Jesus and was always carrying around a chicken. I thought it was his pet. But that's how I saw him. He definitely seemed a bit off, but in a totally harmless lost hippie type of way. Little did I know. I bought weed off of him and smoked some with him a few times. But that was it. We didn't have any serious conversations. So I can't say that I actually knew him except to say what's up type of thing. We didn't even know each others names as far as I remember. I was in shocked when I found out about the murder and some of the basic details. But not nearly as shocked as when I saw his picture in the paper and immediately realized who he was. As I said, he came across to me as some harmless hippie type of guy who maybe just had way too many acid trips. He's in a maximum security place for the criminally insane on Ward's Island on the East River, Kirby Forensic Psychiatric Center. It's just a coincidence that I went to Billy's Topless more than a few times. I woudn't be able to remember whether or not Monika Beerle was working there on any of those occasions, even when I saw her picture in the newspaper. Those were some of what you might call my lost years when I was in a total blackout at least 50% of the time. If I remember correctly I think that Curtis Sliwa of the Guardian Angels lived in the same building as Rakowitz and they knew each other just by passing each other in the building. I think Sliwa had the same impression of him that I did. The way you put this mini doc together and your narration is top notch. And there's a ton of info in here that I knew nothing about. If anyone ever mentions Rakowitz to me and are curious to know about the whole story with him and Monika Beerle, I'll direct them straight here. They'll learn more from this doc about the whole story than anywhere else I can think of. Oh yeah. Love the intro to your show, especially the stuff about the NYHC scene. I grew up in the NYHC scene. I started going to the CBGB's Hardcore matinees with my older brother when I was 13, which was 1983. I'm 53 now. I'm still trying to figure out if I'm old school or just an old fool.😅 Cheers bro!

[@EvilIntentions]

Thanks so much for that, that's a huge compliment. I really appreciate the kind words. Wow I can't imagine how surreal that must've been. Having known him and and seeing his face on the paper for something so insane. It makes you wonder what's really going on in people's minds.

It's hard to fathom that the 80's now is half a century in the past. As a kid in the 80's, if someone said they had memories of the 30's, they were prehistoric. That was the Great Depression and the start of WWII. I wonder if kids see these stories, like Monika's, as relics of an ancient past. I remember how things were so local back then: your block, our neighborhood, your borough, your town. During the recessions, you typed out your resume and walked from one restaurant to another, asking for work. Monika was a formally trained dancer, but she needed to work a topless bar. These days, a woman could get on OF and have subscribers half-way around the world and become a millionaire.

Well, the story was insane, thank you for sharing it. Thank you for the history lesson as well. I appreciate people opening with not only a bit of history and you know just what was going on at the time but I always appreciate hearing that from someone who was actually there, lived in the area, etc. Great storytelling, subbed💕

this is exactly why I now watch small channels because these are the only channels that contain stories that I've never heard but are still very intriguing. it's like when you buy a product because of price, popularity and packaging but not for the actual quality of the product itself. and well...after all, every channel was once a small one, right
