Husband secretly stalks wife before her disappearance - Crime Watch Daily Full Episode

A restraining order means nothing to a perpetrator

[@jr7845]

Nor the victim

[@kaidiver4306]

True, but in many cases it can mean an easy arrest and get the stalker/abuser away from the victim.

I was one of the people who worked alongside her family and community as a volunteer grid searcher. I lived in the direct area this occurred at the time, her car was found abandoned a couple of blocks from my house. It is supposed after he left the cat he likely ran through the wooded field behind my house in order to make his way home. I spoke with him personally while on the many days of searching. We all knew he did it and knew we were looking for her body. He would show up in brand new looking outdoor clothing while most of us were muddied, covered in burrs etc, I never once saw him engage in any of the searches even though he would show up. He hugged me at a benefit that was thrown before her body was found and while he was still pretending he was innocent and thanked me. It made me feel sick that her family, law enforcement the searches all endured this POS while that gorgeous woman was missing. Katrina and family. I still hold you all dearly in my heart and still have the bracelet with her name on it. She was so loved by many who didn't even know her.

[@livingitup9647]

Thank you for sharing such a personal, and poignant, view of this tragedy. It’s always good to hear from those in the community who have participated in searches and helped the grieving loved ones to be reminded that they are not alone in their darkest hours. These stories often help to restore some of my faith in the inherent good within humanity. Blessings to all of you who helped. And blessings to this beloved woman’s family and other loved ones. 🙏🏻💞🌟

In 1988, my whole family went to my cousin's funeral after his motorcycle accident. The seating area was filled, and we heard one Bearded Biker Dude whimpering and crying. I had seen him before and felt sorry for him - not many men at the time would be that public about their emotions. My dad (a POW from WWII) looked over and observed him for a few seconds and whispered, "That guy's a phony. I wonder what else he's trying to do." A month later, my cousin's mother - my aunt - called my dad to step in to find out why BBD is now claiming her son's house, land, and property belong to him because they were friends. No contract or written agreement was ever found. My aunt was hoping that she could pay for his funeral out of the money she could have made from selling his property, since she was the only living relative. Dad knew why, fixed it too.

I remember the other day people broke into my car and stole a bag. I saw one running off but didnt catch him. When i went to the security of the parking lot - i started describing one of the theives. All i got out was he was a black guy before the security insulted me and said im racially profiling. I was so angry at this security 'boss' guy that i went back later that week and totally abused the hell out of him lol (verbally) and he was too much of a bitch to fight back.

Of course it was. This is what happens when people play with other's emotions. She brought it on herself. Was he wrong for killing her, of course, but she caused it by playing with his emotions. She is a clear example of why I always say to never associate with anybody that cannot be faithful to their partner. If you cannot be loyal to your wife, husband etc, then you cannot be loyal to anything or anyone. Saying the guy was living a double life is comical, because she was the one living a double life, and pushed him to do the same. The truth is they were both horrible people.

@@symonelewis1690 That is what you clearly do not understand. When you play games with people's emotions, you never know what they will do. That is the point dummy, do not play games with your partner, and things like this will not happen. It is not about what you think is or is not worth it, it is about what the person thinks, and you never know what others are thinking. When you push some people, they will snap. Again, she brought this on herself. People need to grow up, stop lying to others, stop playing games with others, and if they cannot be loyal, then do not be in a relationship. She is responsible for her actions, just like he is responsible for his, and she caused this.

Restraining orders don't work. If you have an angry ex who's determined to hurt you, it just doesn't help. I'm so glad she survived. These domestic cases are really sad. I was threatened multiple times by my ex husband when I left him. I went to the police multiple times and told them he was threatening to kill me. They told me he was probably just trying to scare me. I told them about his arsenal and that he was extremely angry, drinking all the time, and using drugs. They still didn't listen. I lived in a small town, and started getting word that he had offered a few people money to kill me. I literally lived in fear because he'd attempted to kill me once when we were married and still together. Fortunately, or unfortunately, he found another girlfriend. When she realized how controlling and volatile he was, she left him right after he went to work and drove for hours to another state and hid for over a year. By then he'd married another woman. She divorced him seven years later. I don't know what happened to him after that except that he became a religious fanatic.

[@TakePrayersSayVitamins]

Sumtimes I think a missing person is somewhat worse than knowing the loved one has died. What a horrific feeling. With adults u know if they haven’t called it’s because they are unable to. Is it because they are being held hostage and being mistreated? Tied up & starved etc? Especially with dependent children. Are they being fed, cleaned, cared for properly. The mind racing with all sorts of negative scenarios flowing thru the mind. I feel terribly for the loved ones. They definitely need to rally around one another for emotional support. if the culprit is amongst the ppl who are coming together in support it’s such a deeper betrayal & cold soulless action.

That, and who you choose to have a child/children with!

People that are truly grieving won't do constant interviews, the only way they will do an interview is if the media attention is dieing down! What a narcissist! Bless her poor family and friends

Yes she's a Hero! Thank God she was close by to save this woman! This policewoman should be honored in some way for her lifesaving actions!

Agreed! She definitely saved her life. I’m glad wherever they live, the police carry that blood clotting powder.

[@Starchild42]

The odds are huge...it's always the person who doesn't help find them, usually it's the spouse

[@TakePrayersSayVitamins]

Todd Smith wasn’t even Todd Smith?? Trying to burn down the family home with ppl in it would be as simple as “ arson”. A person without family around is a big red flag. I kno families can become estranged but I believe that not having a distant cousin to come to show love doesn’t look good for ppl.

[@tamarinbush6613]

I love when people fake cry with no tears. I would be ugly crying if anything happened to my husband or kids. Can’t get around how you really feel. Husband did a poor job of trying to be upset

[@thirstonhowellthebird]

Amber Heard and her ugly no tears fake cry. They’re all alike. Sick. Poor Katrina, so sad.

[@John-kv7jo]

Here's a piece of advice. If you plan on divorcing your spouse, wait till the divorce is finalized before starting a new relationship.

[@annaconway313]

She still didn't deserve to be murdered😢😢😢

[@thabingxakata]

My cousin's divorce took just over 2 years to get finalised and she was already over her husband months before she filed. 1 year's was enough for her to start dating again. My point is even if she had waited, this man would have still killed her for leaving him if not her dating another man, judging from the note he wrote to her.

[@thabingxakata]

But yes, I agree with you to some extent about waiting. Some divorces are quick and I'm sure waiting a few months wouldn't hurt.

[@madsdee7803]

Another tip. Don't lie about your name and past so you can con someone into supporting you and your children financially. She wasn't even married to Todd Smith.

[@capiruzca]

Shame she ever met him. He’s an evil monster and should be locked up in prison for life, hopefully

Only crime watch daily gets invited into the evidence room” 😂. That’s right Chris. I love Chris Hansen. I wish he didn’t have to stop the show “to catch a predator” but I heard it was because one man took his own life after being caught in the sting. Does anyone know the man’s name that took his own life? So sad. I wonder if he was married or had children. Or both. Thank you Chris Hansen! You’re delivery is amazing! I’m a huge fan. Anyone know how old Chris is?

I have a hard time feeling sorry for anyone who cheats while in a relationship then gets the blowback from all that pain and hurt. I personally new a guy who was married and his mistress shot and killed his innocent wife and son. Sex is not worth lives at all!

[@madsdee7803]

She wasn't even married to Todd Smith, She was married to a liar who was mooching off her and stealing from other people. She could do what she wanted. He only married her to mooch off her.

[@CarolLustgarten]

Good job Chris. Love your reporting. Excellent story. Tears 😭 for the victim. Happy 😊 they caught that murderer.

[@JohnLahey-ej1rd]

Our body belongs to us, not to a spouse or other. This woman was treated badly and she seeked solace with another man. No one can pass judgement on another person if they haven't been through it. If Katrina had left him, he'd had murdered her anyway. And you know what? Jealousy and being possessive doesn't just happen. There are signs very early on and those actions are portrayed as love. Yeah, right.

[@susieevans6445]

Todd Smith literally told on himself. He was begging to get caught. Obtuse, Selfish horrible husband & father. Not a tear fell from his eyes in any interviews he did .. and he did a Lot !! Despicable.

[@NicklePickle426]

Who else is missing this show and going back to rewatch old episodes?!?

[@Cheri022491]

I remember being part of the search parties looking for Katrina Smith. There were so many searches in the woods behind my ex boyfriend's house... & the neighborhoods felt like on lock down everywhere we went. If you weren't working or physically stuck at home, you were out searching. We hoped someone would find her alive... Never believed he wasn't involved, he was not believable at all.

[@jimwhitehead230]

The husband is the biggest scumbag, but all 3 of those people are scumbags. She cheated on her husband, and her side piece cheated on his wife. Scumbags.

[@tomspeed3354]

agree. she was a typical 304- both sick

[@juned1719]

If the marriage is over just leave. Do it quietly and as quickly as possible. Don’t start a new relationship or live in the house with the person you are leaving especially if they know you are leaving or in a new relationship. Tell as many people as possible what is going on so your friends and loved ones can speak up for you if the worse happens.

[@montanacrone8984]

Todd loved her paying all the bills.

[@Two_Blue_Crayons]

You never know how anyone will react when living this path. I’ve watched tons of interviews like y’all. You never know.

The evil monster trying to cry with out tears. Rest in peace Katrina.

[@martasplace6414]

My ex-husband put a tap on our phone when we were married, when we were having problems in our marriage, after I found the recorder that was the last thing that broke our marriage and I wasn't having an affair or cheating at all...after he moved out I went to the club with my girlfriend and when I came out he had sliced all 4 of my tires, If a man (or woman) can turn on someone they say they love and do crazy things, then that is not love, it's insecurity! If you truly love another, you treat them the way you want to be treated! Stay safe! ☺️

"She had no enemies" "she was cheating with a married man" math isn't mathing. When you cheat, you make a lot of enemies.

[@radrabbit6946]

Appears that it’s that very societal stigma, along with money, that drive a lot of these people to kill their spouse instead of divorcing and moving on with whoever they have found. Yes, cheating is a terrible betrayal, yet, human nature says it’s going to happen. It’s all in how we handle it as a community, imo.

[@DopamineDecor]

What happened to his first wife that he had the daughters with? How did this guy end up with custody of the girls?

[@TakePrayersSayVitamins]

Coworkers are easy to fall for when there is trouble at home since more time is spent at work willingly or unwillingly. ppl can pick up overtime just to get away from the stress*, turmoil & emotional distance at home. She was a step mom to 3 & with a man she no longer wanted. Being the bread winner in that relationship & caring for the 3 girls she married into would be hard. I could imagine how rough it was for her. The lover on the side egging her on to leave didn’t make it any easier as he hurried her to leave.
