[@RedTreeCrime]

This is one of my favorite interrogations and even though it has been done before, I wanted to do it on my channel so I apologize to those that were looking forward to a newer interrogation. I promise I have great interrogations incoming *Quick Channel Update* This is the last video using my old equipment and I have some great stuff in the works.

Detectives playing "dumb" emboldens the suspect to make up lies to incriminate himself later. Just like how Columbo, the TV detective used to operate.

He also falls into the trap that if he has a PhD in physics, he must be smart in all other areas of life. When in reality, you could be a surgeon and yet I wouldn't want you cleaning my teeth or flying my airplane. It was a good move because it immediately props up the suspect, and thus he now thinks he's way smarter than everyone else.

I was a student at University of Illinois when it happened and I was in a building right across the street where he picked her up on the same day. If he was driving another car, say a Toyota Corolla, there was no way the detectives could arrest him and/or build a case against him. And that's so scary! There were exactly TWO black Saturn Astra registered to Urbana-Champaign addresses. Even with that, they still had to use his wife to get a confession from him. And the confession came when they were attending a vigil that was organized by students for her.

We all knew what he did, but when he mentioned her jeans that really told me exactly what he did. Normally you would either not remember what a person wore on a certain day, or you would remember something close to their face - like a hat, an accessory, or a shirt. The fact that he only recalled the jeans was so telling. No other piece of clothing mattered enough for him to remember, but the jeans he needed to take off of her. That’s why he remembers it, in my opinion. It’s quite creepy to think about that sentence in that light. I hope her body is found soon, and that her family can give her a proper burial. She can no longer go back hone the way everyone would want her to, but at least she can still go home this way.

Yeah, never take rides from strangers regardless of what country. As a kid I almost fell victim to a potential kidnapper with my friend. I was 11 if I remember correctly, he pulled up alongside us. I was only the next block behind my house walking down the side walk and he said something like, "hey guys, ya wanna see something cool?"..we were interested, but I noticed he didn't show us anything out by hand and didn't hold anything out, he just sat there looking down and not showing us, so we were gonna go up to the car, but I had a weird feeling that something was off. Why wasn't he looking at us, or showing us anything so I stopped my friend and politely said no thanks and shuffled off around the corner, so we could round back to our place. He said hey as we walked away, but we just ignored him and kept walking. Never seen the dude again, but it was pretty freaky.

One sits back, quiet, just watching, while the other bombards you with questions and then they pull the switcheroo. 2 against 1, very psychologically effective.

I appreciate channels like these that play out the entire interrogations. The additional information regarding facts of the case that come out during trial and the end results are great additions.

People are complicated creatures and everyone is unique.

It's good to know someone can get life even when there's no body. The lack of a body seems to often lead to a maddening plea deal, emboldening future killers to kill anyway but do a good job at disposing of the body.
