[@Lady1974M]

From the sounds of it, if this woman had gone to her employer - this good man - and explained her situation, he possibly would have lent her the money anyway. But no. Her first response was to steal, lie, commit burglary and murder, and then continue to lie. What a horrible person.

[@MsLucyJayne]

That’s what I was thinking

[@Loralanthalas]

Since it was never bothered to be explained we all just hsvr to assume she murdered an entire family for $9k AND got two men to murder for her for FREE. Don't you people listen to true crime? Everyone died except the one family member who inherited everything. And we're sure it was the secretary who did indeed still have employment and keys to the office. If I was the daughter, I'd be laughing my ass off.

[@JK-gm6kk]

WOW he didn't even fire her?! No good deed goes unpunished

[@ekbanks]

Right, Out of all of the true crime I've been watching for some reason this is the most senseless murder.

[@madsdee7803]

I think he was going to fire her and that letter was her attempt at gaslighting him into keeping her there. I don't believe her. Why would she go looking around the workplace for the letter if he forgave her? It's not a coincidence they went there to get the letter. She also wanted them dead because she knew he was going to report her to the police and she would never work in a position of trust where she could steal again.

[@madsdee7803]

His son knew about her stealing too so he had to go too.

[@shopreaux1577]

Him firing her would’ve most likely ended the exact same way for him. The motive was she didn’t want to go to jail from the get go and was allegedly willing to do whatever to stop that from happening. Didn’t matter what he said or did. Once he knew she stole, it was over for him.

[@aftermidnight4867]

I think she knew and arranged it. And I further don’t think they murdered them just over the $9,000. I think they murdered them to keep from going to jail for embezzlement. The only person saying he wasn’t going to press charges or was going to allow her to keep her job, was her…

[@Fcreceptor]

Pretty much. I can’t imagine anyone thinking differently. She wrote that letter hoping for mercy but Paul probably didn’t give her a clear answer about losing her job or paying it back. She likely figured the doctor had more money at the house and those guys went there hoping to eliminate the “problem” and find more money.

[@Mike--Oxmall]

Considering he didnt suspend or report her straight away I believe shes probably telling the truth. The house wasnt robbed either, its like they were just looking for the letter. It seems they genuinely believed that getting rid of the letter with her confession on it would clear her of the crime. The idiots didnt seem to realise that all the doctor needed to prove her guilt were the bank records showing her writing cheques to herself.

[@Fcreceptor]

@@Mike--Oxmall not necessarily. The doctor might have told her “we’ll talk about it later” or something along those lines to indicate he wanted to mull over how to appropriately handle it. And the murderers who actually broke in and killed him and his son might have ransacked the house looking for cash. Theft of property would just put the spotlight on them and they seemed to have had a good idea on how to get away. They cleaned the car of prints and the police had no clue who actually committed the crime. I’d say they almost got away with it.

[@ayameisastar]

@@Mike--Oxmallagreed. Also the police said her story checked out which means they confirmed her story. Likely the daughter knew what was going on so could confirm the story or there were texts or emails.

[@rheap129]

I mean, I guess I'm confused about Maria's story. She says at trial that she tore up the letter, but how did it get in his jacket? And then she blames the police for rewriting the letter even though the whole purpose of her tearing up the letter was so that no one would know about the letter, so if she tore it up, how would the police even know that there WAS a letter in the first place? Strange coincidence that the police make up a letter apologizing, and she happened to also write a letter about the same subject but tore it up, isn't it?

[@SeenGod]

yeah see that’s why she’s a lying sack of shite, because if she knew somebody actually found the letter eventually, then she wouldn’t have said in court that she tore it up, so she didn’t actually know the letter was found

[@windowpain1]

I'm also confused, as I was initially assuming the letter was discovered in the jacket after she claimed she ripped it up, which is why the letter would be treated as the smoking gun in the story--proving that she had lied. But it sounds like she only first says she ripped it up during the trial, after the letter was discovered, which would be weird time to make up that lie.

[@davidhollenshead4892]

She was claiming that the letter was not hers, but created by corrupt police...

[@rheap129]

@@davidhollenshead4892 Right, but that seems weird cause in her story, they found the letter before they even knew she wrote a letter. And nobody was even searching for the letter-it was just found and the police ignored it for years. So it’s strange considering that she first says she couldn’t find the letter (and it was so important that she get it back), but then at trial she now says she tore the letter up and there was no need to get it back, so her friends killed him for literally no reason.

[@madsdee7803]

She changed the story to ripping up the letter after the prosecution pointed out that she was to blame for the murders because her assassins went in there for the letter. No letter = no crime by her lol. She was reaching. What I don't understand is why people believe a lying thieving murderer when she says her boss forgave her and was going to keep her on as an employee. There's no proof of him forgiving her and that would be why he and his son were killed. Because she never would have got another job with them alive knowing what she did.

[@Ryo7_7]

I seriously doubt she didn't orchestrate the whole, at least majority, of the crime. She could've kept her job if she wasn't so greedy and heartless. This was just insane.

[@cade377]

Who knows. I don't think she knew that the murders would happen... she knew she wasn't going to lose her job and Paul was going to keep her on.... But damn.... what a stupid reason to murder people.... just senseless.

[@ericison6032]

If she lied about ripping up the letter something so stupid I'm pretty sure she lied about not wanting him killed if anything she probably conned her boyfriend into killing the guy and his son

[@davidhollenshead4892]

@@ericison6032 I once knew a mental health practitioner who worked for Corrections in a northwestern state in the US. Her main duty was group therapy at a men's maximum security prison. She explained to me that women probably commit a planned homicide as often as men do, but many use a naive to mentally challenged man as their murder weapon. Even if said man figured out they got played before they were convicted, if he believes that he is the father of her baby, he will still take the fall...

[@TheLadyEve]

That's the part of this story that hits me the most. All her siblings and her parents gone, and all in terrible circumstances. I think it's so beautiful that she made that video as a way to heal and get some closure, and I love that if she had NOT made that video, that letter might have gone unfound. I hope she at least recognizes that she helped solve her brother and father's murder.

[@kathryncumberland]

Her attorney said, "At best, she's a thief," lol. She meant at worst.

[@archlich4489]

Freudian slip

[@hylonycteris]

No, at best she's a thief. At worst, she's a murderer. That's what the defense attorney meant.

[@kathryncumberland]

@@hylonycteris No, he's arguing that the worst crime she committed was theft, not murder. So he should have said that at worst, she's a thief. Saying "At best, she's a thief" means that the best thing she could possibly be, of all existing options, is a thief. That's not a favorable assessment, lol!

[@ravengilliam2736]

[@ZombieSazza]

So the only person who was connected to the murders and embezzlement was the same person who claimed “he forgave me and wasn’t gunna fire me”? HMMMMMM. God, no good deed goes unpunished, the last of Aleta’s family just wiped out, all for the sake of Maria. I hope she doesn’t get out early, this doesn’t feel like justice at all, she was the mastermind behind this all and got away with double murder. Two lives for $9,000…

[@DBpsychology]

definately sounds sus

[@xen0bia]

It feels completely unreal to me that the jury would believe Maria's sorry excuse of a defense... The cops planted the letter?? How would they have known about it when only she and her acolytes knew about it?? And that letter when it was found, even if assuming it was "planted", didn't even do anything to help with the case! What was the police supposed to gain doing that?! And if the letter was indeed retrieved by her (contradicting her own initial testimony), why did the home invasion still took place? Wouldn't it imply that the goal was always to kill Dr Jarrett, if the letter wasn't even in the picture? Isn't it obvious she simply changed her story to cover for her a$$, to feign that she didn't even have anything with the burglary to begin with, to get out of that charge too?? To me, this all makes her look infinitely more guilty, not less!

12:20 "How do birds smell?" Foul! ...LOL. You're slipping, Mike, to miss such an obvious pun.

[@BrendonKennedy-yl4oz]

It would smell FOWL!

[@lisahinton9682]

@@BrendonKennedy-yl4oz No, "FOUL" is correct. FOUL means "bad, malodorous, stinky," etc. So FOUL is the pun of FOWL, the bird-word.

If you cook cookies around a parrot, he'll smell like cookies for almost a week. ... I know that's not the point. But. Thats my knowledge of living with a parrot.

Good video Mike, but I must comment on what you said about home invasions. You said that home invasions almost always happen then no one is home. This is wrong, the crime of home invasion applies only when people are home, otherwise it is a burglary or a break and enter and then a charge of theft. It is something most people do not know and just go along but a home invasion has to be people having their privacy invaded by outsiders in their home.

Hey Mike! Have you heard of the Ken McElroy case? He was the town bully and the townspeople murdered him 😮

[@evanzabove]

I don't think I've seen any KZbinr cover that case, but I read a book about it. Great suggestion!

[@Lady1974M]

I remember watching a documentary about that case a few years back. It was fascinating. Still unsolved because out of a crowd of about 30 or so people that day not one person saw who shot the guy...or, at least, they say they didn't see anything. Goes to show what happens when you push folk too far.

[@carcevicubo3703]

That case has been covered in other channels, at least in two: one, 5 years ago, another one, a year ago. But even so, I like to hear Mike´s way , because he´s covered cases I had heard others tell them about, and I like better the way he narrates them!

I will never understand why people choose murder. The punishment from embezzlement would of been way less than the cost of taking peoples lives for pretty much nothing. Crazy. And sad.

Look. I'm not saying that theft is ok but I'll never understand people who decide that murder is going to get them out of a lesser crime.

[@Loralanthalas]

Don't raise your kid with zero sense of accountability, or pretending everything is everyone else's fault. Murder is covering your tracks, if you get away with it. Less then 70% are solved and over 10% innocent get incarcerated. Your chances aren't that bad, if youre a spoiled person raised to take zero responsibility.

[@mattskustomkreations]

I had a boss whose office manager embezzled from him. There were 2 office locations 100 away from each other. What pissed me off is she would tell each office that it was the other office losing money, which meant no XMas bonuses. 😡. Young secretaries were run off by her. Then an older wiser woman pointed out the theft. But the boss refused to press charges! 🤬. I asked someone at the other office WTF, and he said, did you ever see her youngest son? Kinda looks like the boss…..

[@lisahinton9682]

@batchybatchy4659 I've always wondered why Mike, being on the other side of the world, uses mostly USA cases for his content, instead of the horrors from his own neck o' the woods, or thereabouts. Are court records available there? I think they are fairly easy to obtain here in the USA, so maybe that is why.

[@batchybatchy4659]

@@lisahinton9682 not alot of what happens in courts are publicly available here tbh, most stuff is only what is known in the papers etc. So yeah that's maybe why 🤷‍♂️
