How Israel Keyes Got Caught || True Crime Recaps Podcast

[@TrueCrimeRecaps]

If you could say ONE thing to Israel Keyes, what would it be ?

[@FlameFlickers]

"Do you realise your name is an anagram of "Easily Reeks"?

[@TheBOUNCERCHANNEL]

It's not something Id say, It's what would I do to this sick prick fro hurting and killing those people, and that, that would a secret that I would let him take to his grave.

[@aye70aye]

Would it be cheating to ask him all the questions on Hare's Psychopathy Checklist?!

[@venessahunt1364]

Id ask if i could ask more than 1 question!! Because they are all important and interesting questions.

[@honeybunch5765]

May your time on earth be short lived too. Edit: Oh yeah he did end his life!

Never leave the place you’re confronted. Once you leave the hope you’ll survive declines drastically.

[@nickdaniels2083]

Same with restraints.

[@Kari.F.]

Definitely. Especially if someone attempts to abduct you from an areas with at least some people around. Screaming and running isn't going to help much if you're taken in a desolate area. I think I'd go with without a fight then, in the hopes of getting to a place where someone could hear and see me and hopefully help. I'm not sure if I'd be able to think that clearly if I had a knife to my throat, though... 😱

[@spookysworld]

RYAN, your correct your just going to another crime scene. Sad story.

Thank you, Amy and Chris, for always giving me something I didn’t know before. Edit: I do most of my shopping in Colville, WA. 😳 good thing he was still a kid there.

Adrenaline and time constraints, maybe.

[@benchk066]

He was not that intelligent as he thought and wanted

[@napatora]

kinda makes sense to me. that's a short term memory he didn't have time to commit to long term memory. the other things he remembered he would've had enough time to commit to memory

[@kiarrapierce]

I visited my grandma in Anchorage, Alaska around the time this girl went missing. I remember flyers everywhere and we drove past the coffee shop she disappeared from often. We wanted so badly for her to be found alive 💔💔

[@jimross9178]

Troubling to see investigators laughing with him. Kinda like seeing Chad chuckle when he's about to be read murder of children charges. Could make a humble man angry.

[@trunkb73625]

Yeah that was fucked up. I get that they're playing good cop but wtf

[@iolandav2685]

The cops laughing with the monster is strategy, same with Chris Watts. This way, the murderers are more comfortable to share information.

[@Iamgigi1515]

Yeah seriously that’s just crazy

[@ErinJeanette]

Who's chad

[@notamoose2070]

It's somewhat of a procedure to give such treatment to serial killers because based on the FBI's BSU the best way to get such a highly organized killer as Keyes to volunteer any kind of information is to 'befriend' him. Talking about the murders nonchalantly, laughing with him and stuff is an act. It can be pretty disturbing to see, especially when investigators openly victim blame and sympathize with the killer. To catch a monster, to understand it, you need to think and speak like one. If you are interested in understanding the history and reasoning behind this method of interrogation I'd recommend checking out Mindhunter. In case you do, I have to warn you that it contains very triggering stuff, even by my standards. Despite dealing with CSA and childhood abuse in my past, I keep up with true crime cases and have little to no problem distancing myself emotionally (even with the grimmest cases, such as the Tool Box Killers, the Ken and Barbie killers and Sylvia Likens) but the last episode of season one really got to me quite bad because of the interrogation scene. Brilliant acting, honestly.

[@undeadnightorc]

That part about him removing his phone battery so he can't get tracked. I forgot that phone manufacturers once upon a time made that task fairly easy. Nowadays the batteries are pretty much glued in with the rest of phone's innards.

[@Johnbartheart]

They always did that in Breaking Bad and BC Saul. Ripped the battery out..

[@bhargavipba]

Yeah! Now it's non-removable batteries and it's pretty easy to be tracked if you have the resources!

[@lamirosims2013]

Like Minds and I wish when you made that phone call they could have pinged it rather when he start texting her dad and boyfriend they could have pinged it and caught him

[@lamirosims2013]

I wonder how would he feel if somebody had kidnapped his daughter and did that to her and also is people like that serial killers like that I'm obsessed with but in a different way I would love to hunt them down

I think he knife in the back was an ode to Bundy. He admired Bundy, but didn’t want to ever be considered a copycat. I bet he wanted to see if it was a better thrill to use a knife.

[@alunrhydderch1786]

So, if he hasn't have used her ATM card he'd probably still be roaming the streets, right? Watching him laugh with the detectives in the interviews makes my skin crawl.

[@aye70aye]

Such a scary enigma, you literally couldnt make this up. Hes such a complex character and a fine example of a sociopath made. Great retelling Amy. He would have just kept going and going, such elaborate planning and the ease he switched gears to 'be a Dad' is horrifying. His daily to do list included, 1. Murdered captured tortured girl. 2. Cut up body into bits. 3. Dispose of under ice in lake. 4. Attend Parents Evening and discuss how daughter is doing in Geography. Unreal.

I’ll never forget the photo of his young barista victim that he killed. He sewed her eyes open with fishing line to try and show her family she was still alive and took a photo of her as he held a newspaper in front . I’ll carry that image with me for life.

[@thekelleejean]

I mentioned that too & i have had several replies telling me it was not the real photo circulating....?! 🤷‍♀️ Fake or Real...he was more than capable of doing it & that’s all I needed to know to be terrified of him.

[@lesliesauceman8093]

Its horrible it looks almost normal until you hear the context.

[@charleslennonbaker]

@Babylonian Cowboy this act is reminiscent of another killer who kidnapped a businessman's small daughter in the early 1920s. The kidnapper sent a ransom to her father to be paid for her release. At the time of the exchange (money and hostage) the father wanted to see his daughter before he gave up the ransom. The ransomer displayed her from a distance and the father was satisfied. He paid the ransom and the killer got away (for the time being). Only after the father ran to embrace his daughter did he realize she was a puppet. The kidnapper turned killer had sowed her eyes open, disarticulated her upper and lower appendages, disemboweled her, and stuffed matter in the cavity to make it appear 'normal'. It has been speculated that Ayn Rand used this real-life killer as her inspiration for John Gault. Recently a similar reenactment was created in the re-booted Perry Mason tv show.

[@bobtaylor170]

@Babylonian Cowboy , how do you know that? It seems to me that it's what the FBI would say to try to minimize the public's horror: the photo is a fake. Obviously, once the photo is online, there's nothing anyone can do to stop its being circulated forever, so if people can be convinced the photo isn't real, that's almost as good.

[@bobtaylor170]

@Babylonian Cowboy , I don't know the case as well as you, obviously. And what I've outlined is not a conspiracy theory. Conspiracy theories have a lot of steps in them. This has one: that the photo is real, the government can do nothing about its being there, and is actually doing the only decent thing it could do, lying to the public in order to keep them as minimally creeped out as possible. That's sure some conspiracy theory, isn't it? As for your last paragraph, it's exactly the sort of move a malignant narcissist would make. Maybe you've been a little too taken with Israel Keyes.

[@astaraoneill9166]

@@KourtneeMonroe , Oh that is sad. I haven’t seen the Samantha photo. I struggled to accept that Bland was dead in that photo, and I stared long and hard. What was damning was of course the background, and that her head was leaning against it. (and of course ALL the tampered videos, the crazy arresting officer, and the fact that she was an activist, etc. ) What ultimately decided me was that her eyes seemed focused on the camera and did not look dead. But now, if Samantha’s OWN FAMILY thought she was alive in a photo when she was deceased, well, clearly it’s possible, and I was mistaken. Sandra Bland’s was deceased in her so-called mugshot. (My theory is she died from a head wound or complications of was it epilepsy brought on by the head wound when arresting a**hole slammed her head on the ground. And his cronies tried to insert into the narrative that she had kicked him, saying it WAY too many times, all off camera, and saying “good thing you have that on video.” Well, he didn’t have it on video, and officer corrupt thought saying it made it true. There’s a video by a good video expert showing how both the video at scene and at the jailhouse was massively manipulated. They either did that while photographing her and setting the scene, or to commit first degree murder. IMO.

It seemed like when they were interegating him he "acted" like he so superior...he was just a disgusting individual!! Off topic your such a phenomenal individual Amy and I appreciate all the info you include in your recaps!!!!

[@TrueCrimeRecaps]

Thank so much! Yes the scary part about this is there's no rhyme or reason to the victims he picked.. It could be literally anyone!!

[@vampirequeen953]

@@TrueCrimeRecaps You are so, so welcome!! I absolutely agree it literally could've been anyone!! He genuinely seemed to be a phycopathic individual through and through!!

[@livingitup9647]

Please don't take this as ingratitude for your great videos, but: I just *hate it* when channel owners stick ad promos in the middle of their videos! It's extremely disruptive and I just want to click off. Bad enough we have to endure all the KZbin ads and their terribly timed intrusions... but to get them inserted by the content creator is just too much! I hope you get sufficient feedback from viewers and subscribers about this, so that you'll change this practice. Thanks.

[@carolinerowles5951]

Have you seen the prices of that smoothie company too, it's astronomical! I think now KZbin page less and especially due to censorship but elite companies is not the way, IMO 👌

[@catherinegrace2366]

The fact that he buried “kill bags” all over the country for years in advance is stunning in a bad way.

[@amber-lynne9537]

I appreciate you guys! Love this channel 😁

[@TrueCrimeRecaps]

Our pleasure, thanks!

I’ve heard this one before …and it needs to be told again.

[@susanam.826]

Jesus... disturbing. That is a scary guy. Great video.

[@TrueCrimeRecaps]

Tell me about it, thanks!

[@casandralafont7906]

This was a really good one,informative...

[@albertangeloro5832]

exceptional video thanks

[@TrueCrimeRecaps]

Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!

[@marya.6867]

this can sound counterproductive because of curiosity but trust me you do not want to see any pictures from his crimes! it’s disgustingly easy to find them (especially samantha’s) and extremely disturbing to see and think the family can see it as easily too

[@robon3732]

Love the videos. Fantastic work.

[@MrSirlulzalot]

He wasn't an SF Army Ranger, though. It appears he passed a preliminary course to go to Ranger School. He was an infantryman whose specialty was mortars.

[@JeanineKing]

Correct. Wasn’t part of Special Forces, only regular army with a specialty.

Such a completly pointless life. Zero reason for this. Disturbed and sick.

[@eastonmeyer6845]

32:21.... THAT LITERALLY MADE ME SICK TO MY STOMACH HOW THE COPS WERE SITTING THERE LAUGHING AND CUTTING UP WITH HIM ABOUT THE THUMB FINGERPRINT LEFT BEHIND!!! WTFFFF WOWWWWWW😳😳😳😳😳😳😳🤬

[@honeybunch5765]

It is only to get him comfortable and get him to talk, they are trained in these tactics. It's not sincere from their side believe me. There is a YT channel that explains their tactics, it is really interesting, there is a lot of psychology involved.

[@MsSonali1980]

@@honeybunch5765 I'm sure he could see right through them. But yes, it made my skin crawl seing them all lol at each other.

I think Keyes was full of shit. He was so incompetent with Koenig. I don’t buy the criminal mastermind bit.

[@brandonproctor3639]

He was just lucky.. you're right, he was nothing special.

[@doddiemcclure2115]

Agree

[@fierrosoft]

They found his kill kits He wanted to be caught. He got tired of dealing with his killing urges

"And in nightmares anything can happen." Welp, guess I'm not sleeping tonight. Love these! Talk about heebie-jeebies before bed though! lol keep up the great work =)

SO true!

Had he not gotten sloppy with Samantha he'd still be out there and that's terrifying

And if anyone is having dark thoughts bad depression thinking of harming yourself or other people just take a moment and think what was the greatest time in your life and throw all them dark thoughts and depression out of your mind and live love peace

[@92skeet49]

Awesome thanks for all the work you put into this. R.I.P. to all his victims. Burn and sizzle i.k.

[@Iconoplastt]

Great detail on the case, this one is a frightening one, what other highly trained psychopaths are out there?
