Cashing out the Fam | The Disturbing Case of Karl Karlsen 

😂🤣😂🤣😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This proves it. You’re all sons to someone.

@@sym438 😂😂😂

Love it.

IKR?

That sentence right there is pure copywriters' gold

Classic Mike! 😆

Isn't that the best? JACKPOT

His 1st wife, his son, his 2nd wife just for money, holycrap. Sociapath.

Sadly, that's so true. I wonder why they're like that tho.

Truth

Well her first pick was a nightclub

To be fair the shooting range was closed

i guess karl wouldnt want to be overheard and could catch on

@@wasserungeheuer-918 They cancelled EDM night.

@@lsixty30 lol

I’m guessing you win every disagreement 🤣. “Remember that one time I saved your life honey”

@@cadencarr2860 its my ex, we were married 15 years. He's still my friend. I'll always be there for him. He's the father of our 3 sons.

Whenever I’ve gone under a car I always put the wheel I’ve taken off and put it under the car just in case the jack fails.

@@stephenireland3816 my ex, we were dirt poor did the best he could. A neighbor who witnessed this, before cell phones, gave him 2 ramps.

@@X4FOSTER exactly, I was very young, 19, and became a Registered nurse, im now retired but I will always remember and love the father of my 3 sons.

And killing innocent horses. A real piece of garbage.

@@HPKazan She was a beautiful, innocent creature! What did she ever do to you?!

He stole his grandchildren's father & inheritance from their fathers life insurance.

Thats when i think that the death penalty would be fitting. I know its bad, but i dont want such creatures back in society.

It was for a good chunk of money though.

At least he got sentence to life now

When the suspect and the victim have a close relationship, the sentence is always light. The law assumes you're more dangerous to society if you kill random strangers than family members.

@@jessicabarczewski1910 In almost all cases that I watched, husbands and wifes got life sentences without parol (unless it was in Canada or Australia).

15 to life, so he got life with a possibility of parole after 15. At least I understood it that way.

Fifteen to life means not eligible for parole until 15 years of a life sentence. And there's no requirement to parole him. He gets to be reviewed by a parole board and he gets to be denied.

Zack: 😂🤣😅

Yeah same here. Add a hard, smooth, and level surface. One time I jacked one side of my car up on a gravel driveway, put a jack stand under it, then started jacking the other side and the jack started tipping, followed by the car and jack stand. It freaked me out a bit.

😂😂😂

Some idiot did it in Alabama 4 Jack's in the grass. Working on his exhaust. He got a Darwin award!😂

LOL.

But do you have life insurance?

@@rosec6680 lol no not that i know of (seriously, it's so wrong you can take policy out on someone without their knowledge)

😂😂😂

@@thagodwecreate5179 I believe it should be a law that you have to provide contact information for the person your taking life insurance out on so the company can phone them and check to make sure they know its happening.

Ha,ha, yes, what a loop!

INORITE? How many of these murders have we now heard about that involve life insurance money?

Has anyone with life insurance ever NOT been murdered?

no kidding. every time I hear mention of “life insurance” my brain is immediately like 🚨🚨🚨

In reality it's death insurance.

"Why did 1.6M people suddenly cancel their life insurance?"

Totally worth it to see Mike do the life insurance dance!

I'm a life insurance agent in all 50 states. Business is booming 😂 A lot of new laws have been made the last 8 years I've been involved in this business. It used to be that anyone could go and take a policy out on anyone else. Sometimes without even their knowledge. Now you have to prove insurable interest which means you are financially tied to the insured in some major way and they have to sign off on the policy being taken out.

​@@deborahsunflower939 I always get so excited when he says life insurance 😂

Knowing he did that is absolutely heartbreaking. He is an absolute monster. They should put a truck on him for hours everyday for the next 25 years.

He bought life insurance on the two little granddaughters as well. Heartless.

Horrible. 💔

Money is the root of all evil for sure. For money some would do ANYTHING.

I imagine he told him the truth about his mom at the time too....

18:59

Finally, someone mentions it. It was weird

I seen it in the watts case... the woman detective finessed the shit outta that psycho Chris.

Lmao so true

Lol it works every time.

Actually, he got social security survivor benefits for all 3 kids cause when a parent dies the government gives you money. So I suspect the insurance polices happened after all 3 were over 18 and that sweet government money wasn't coming in.

Ohhh good point!

Oh, they knew.

He didn’t hang around for the funeral ‼️‼️

@@wordplay1415 yeah that was a wtf moment for sure!!!

And it only took another murder for them to care about his late wife. Way to go police

He also mentioned "parents" and "uncle" randomly. They were on their way to the uncles funeral. Anybody look into that one. Who brings up killing an uncle?

Wow, what a horrible thought.

@@themerchantofengland maybe because i saw many videos where people were murdered by a family member that made thought of this.. how horrible it is when their last minutes is being attacked by a beloved person. I did not mean to be so dark but I just felt the pain of this.

@@maramiro80 I agree with you human, I wasn't putting your comment down, it is a genuine horrible thing that his last thoughts were of a loved one killing him. RIP.

Same. He was likely suffocating and choking on his own blood and his own father turned and walked away, thinking only of dollar signs. As a mother myself, I cannot even comprehend it. Karl is pure evil.

He wasn't murdered slowly at all. The car crushing him would kill him instantly. Not justifying it. Just saying, not slow at all.

He's a psychopath. They have no feeling's for anyone. They aren't like you or me.

Without wishing to state the obvious, it's the "murder" part that's worse than the "gourmet duck business". There aren't any businesses that justify murder.

Yep, a creep, he got ducked up.

I would comment on what I think should be done with this guy, but it would just be deleted.

@@Bootmahoy88 strung up by his b.. ls?

@@Bootmahoy88 Well dropping a car on him and setting him on fire wouldn't be out of line given that he'd do it to you or I without batting an eyelid. The guy is an absolute monster - there's nothing that could convince me that he wouldn't have done something to his grandchildren given the chance. Even torching the stables with the horses* inside - absolutely horrific. This guy was as dangerous, and evil, as they come. Murder is obviously never pleasant, but to drop a car on his own Son, before leaving him to be crushed to death is quite easily one of the worst things I've ever heard. Clearly it isn't the same as serial killers who actively hunt people, but it's shocking in a different way. I couldn't leave an animal, (even what most people would consider vermin) to be slowly crushed, but his Son... I know that on these videos, (and others like them) some people often comment on animals, "I know that____killed ten people, but thankfully the dogs are okay" which is just how some people view things - I understand the empathy towards animals, so that's fine.

And then he took out life insurance on his grandchildren...

Im thinking he took these policies out and was just sort of waiting on the right time to make each one look like an accident. He's one sorry sob.

Well, he oughtta blame himself; after all, he is responsible for the deaths of multiple people... Unfortunately, blaming oneself and taking responsibility are clearly separate issues. What a disgusting excuse for a human being. :/

@@ealeu1 Poor Levi wanted out of that home very young...he was probably treated very badly, may these poor souls rest in peace as well as all the animals he killed (I'm sure he did this throughout his entire life).

Or calling 911 the moment that the truck fell.

Charisma is real !

Agh, he killed the poor horses too 😢

If killers all looked like killers they’d never get the chance to kill

Your feeling centre seems to be working just fine.

That one had me chuckling too!!! Lol..... no worries 👍

I'm glad I'm not the only one who did. 😂😂😂

Same here.

Thats what I call long term investing

Remember Mike saying *“He’d look at the family portrait like a scratch card”* ... Lets see we've done *fancy car* , *barn* , *horses in barn* , *Wife* , *Son* , and who do we have next? Either *current wife* OR *1 of the 2 Grandkids*

Cashing out on his blood seemed like his thing

It's possible that he didn't plan to kill them since it sounds like he had nothing to do fo with them, but maybe realized it was suspicious that every time he took a policy out on someone, they died

@@MrBloodprice im thinking he did plan it out but there was too much heat to go through with it. since his son died and had grandchildren, he'd be able to have them over and see them whenever. could've used opportune time for something sick and twisted...

I liked your comment, but I want to clarify that I’m actually sorry you had to experience mr crazy eyes

Clarifying, family #1 or #2?

He does have the Manson lamps!

If you're interested, EXPLORE WITH US just did an extended piece on this case. 2+ hours long, I believe. They're my preferred true crime channel. Give it a goo!

Married a guy like this guy. Evil started and I left. Before anything happened. Creepy man.

Well, she wasn't specific. She didn't say "his chest was crushed" or "his legs were crushed" or "his head was crushed". Even suicide victims get oxygen supplied to them all the way to the hospital to keep oxygen to organ supplies in case of organ donation.

The 911 operator has to go through a certain protocol to make sure he’s doing his job correctly. He likely knew the person had died/was incapacitated when he didn’t hear commotion or screaming in the background.

Doesn’t mean his chest was caved in but I get your point. In nursing school I watched my instructor give CPR to a man missing part of his skull….and brain….but policy and training dictates the only people who call a death is a MD….you start CPR at all costs no matter what in any circumstance until time of death is called.

interesting too because she said "he is not alive" just moments before that. sometimes i am just amazed at the seeming ignorance of the 911 operators. i'm not saying all of them are bad, i'm just saying i keep getting amazed at this.

@goofballCartoonist They're not ignorant. Untrained people, especially in moments of high stress, aren't going to be able to accurately determine that someone is past the point of successful resuscitation. A victim who appears to be dead could very well be revived with CPR, so it's not ignorant for the emergency operators to ask bystanders to do everything they can until EMTs arrive.

His new roommates must have had a goo! 😉

That or wanted people to feel bad or sorry for him

He's not even putting his weight on it, hes just picking it up in front of him. It's what harvey Weinstein to try to get sympathy too.

Just like Weinstein when he attended his trial

Also a neck brace

I'd but life insurance for my grand kids but.......I'd make their parents beneficiaries.

Right? Even after everything else he did, when I heard that I thought the same thing.

RIGHT?! I audibly gasped and ugggggh. To the point my headphone wearing husband turned around quickly and asked if I was ok. Edit - Even more troubling to know that he probably would have killed them by fire.

Most Grandparents would expect to die before Their Grandchild. He is just evil.

Killing animals is *nothing* like killing children.

No it’s not lol

Wtf?!??!;Killing animals doesn't compare to killing children. What is wrong with you??

@@xxamylgrantxx I know. What in the actual Fook

Well, any person who eats meat is directly responsible for many, many animals horrible "lives" in meatfarms and brutal deaths at the slaughterhouse. I'm not playing the typical vegan asshole here, but it's what he did to his family that was evil; not killing some animals (unless you believe that consuming animals is seriously fucked up too, when you knows the horrific conditions they exist in) for profit, like most people do...

@@randallflagg3700 you do realise not all meat comes from horrible places right? And you do also realise the difference between a bolt to the brain and being slowly burned alive right? Because making that comparison is ridiculous. You sound like that vegan teacher.

@@evelynvslife Over 90% of meat comes from horrible, nasty places. Check out the feed lots.

@@sunshine3914 that doesn’t change anything that I said though.

@@randallflagg3700 being burnt alive is totally different then how those animals die at least they get eaten so there death wasn’t for nothing

Totally agree!

Lol part of the prison uniform. Ask Weinstein

LOL! I noticed that too.

Their lawyers convince them people will give a shit. Lawyers are wrong.

The Golden State killer is doing the same routine in jail rn

All of a sudden their vision becomes blurry too. 🤓

Me too

Yeah, it helps. Those mics they use to record in interrogation rooms are potatoes

Me too

💯 I totally agree!!

My family misses me. 🤣

I've watched every single one and legit have to wait for a new video. Don't be like me, space them out :(

You should try heroin now there's an addictive doozy lol Don't do drugs*

I'd rather not, but thank you for the offer! And I will always use sturdy jack stands and a wheel chock!

Yeah, I even imagined it in my head, from his poor son's POV..... On your back & watching your own dad’s legs turning from you & walking away to the door...🥺 He couldn't even scream for help so his step-mom could hear due to his crushed chest. How awful & agonizing. What a an evil evil man.

@@ealeu1 That's what I do too always have more than one peg support. But this guy is a PIG! Deserved to be jail (if it was just me) it would be the death penalty for all murderers. And life for rape.

☹

It would definately be a "wtf" moment

I know right? LOL 😂

Exactly my thoughts, they set the bar low with that name. Did they expect that he will have tree braincells and would forget his name if it wasn't similar to his surname.

It sounds like a fake name you make in a panic lol.

I'm just going to imagine that his middle name is Karlford

Son of Carl.

Poor 🏇

Yeah that's the main thing!

Right, to kill the horses is heart wrenching along with crushing ur kid....

Thanks for warning about animals getting killed I love this channel but gonna dip out on this one

I hated his guts specially for those poor horses 😪 and other animals bc I don't think he cared for the doggies in the burnt house and prob they were killed too

And his arrogance for blabbing

The second wife who apparently went along with it for the money, and kept that money from her own two grand kids.

@@ct5625 Agreed!

No kidding. Omg the second time I'd have been sweating bullets. She knew he killed his own son slowly and agonizingly, his own flesh and blood, she was probably like I'm doomed.

She's trash. Didn't care til she realized he had over one million out on her.

The horses is where you draw the line?

@@j.evancurry I mean, it’s all too terrible for words honestly but letting those poor horses burn up, locked in a barn, that’s savage. They can’t unlock their stall door or open the barn. The way he allowed his son to be crushed to death by the truck, is sick! Same with boarding up the bathroom window to make sure his first wife died. The man is a monster and I really like horses. I think they’re so beautiful so killing them off for insurance money is difficult to wrap my head around. Sorry for rambling

@@j.evancurry Found Tony Soprano.

@@j.evancurry You value animals lives less than humans? Why? Because they have less complex minds?

I have a hard time understanding how, with this beautiful life and family, barn full of beautiful horses, a business, how he could do all this? He had it all, so so much, yet it wasn't enough for him so he murdered his own wife and son, burned all those horses? Such nonsense. Yet was smart enough organizing all that insurance plus do the murders too. So strange. I'm happy he got caught, sad anyone had to die for his greedy needs.

Probably no one had life insurance.

Good question....

Yea im wondering too..

Yeah, it's a lot harder to convince your aunt or neighbor to take out life insurance and name you as the beneficiary.

Yes, or fires/thefts, etc., etc. No way he could go 20 years without more easy money & the boost to his ego.

Congratulations! You're not a psychopath!

If ever a person deserves to burn for an eternity.

Agreed 👍 I believe this wrapped in flesh demon 😈 needs to be put out of our misery. We have slid off the rails of humanity when we have disregarded the lives of these victims, family victims at that, when the death penalty is not an option by the state. Sure, there are those who by being indigent or wittingly framed, are somehow found guilty, but by taking away a harsh punishment the mind of the criminal has free roam of crimes without the internal nudge of what might remain of a CONSCIENCE. But still there are some whose CONSCIENCE has been seared with a hot iron and nothing short of an act of God would stop them from doing what this demon did and the like.

It’s honestly against our parental instinct, isn’t it? I can’t imagine how hollow or evil you have to be to fight the instinct to protect your child at all costs, even if it costs your own life.. and this monster could callously kill his own child.

@@strangelove0108 Absolutely agree

Some people would claim that's sexual harassment 😱

That's some of the best "Bad cop, good cop" scenes I've ever seen.

I know right? 😂

@@ruthless8411 He was like there there my man. Just confess I would buy you a drink.

@@kapilsharmaWorld_uncensored you crack me up!! Very funny

I'm so sorry

I wonder if he's in gen pop because I would think a lot of inmates would be pretty outraged, what he did to his own son...I hope he's not segregated so he's constantly looking over his shoulder.

That really gets me, too. I'm not a parent and I never will be, but even then just imagining killing your own kid, who you knew as an innocent little child, who you held as a baby and watched grow up. I can't even fathom how it would be possible. Takes a real monster

He has no empathy, he's either a narcissistic sociopath or a psychopath.

@@isabellind1292 I doubt it was a high profile case so the inmates were waiting for him to arrive He is most likely in PC or solitary

Love you Mike

@@ThatChapter Mike do you have a team that produces these videos with you or is all you by yourself?

@@ThatChapter You do you, and we'll stick around.

Amen! Someone who thinks like I do. Money is such a big motive yet no law is passed about life insurance policies. There should be an automatic check on life insurance policies right away when it comes to murders. So many murders could be prevented if life insurances policies were more regulated. Like how does a company pay out $700 K after only 2 weeks after person got insured. Like seriously, that is red flag number #1

Truth.

A combined data base and black list, yes, it's like that in Germany - also, you cannot insure anyone under 18 and the policies aren't nearly as high! 1.2M bucks, like Karl's second wife? That'd be something no ordinary people could afford!

@@ElaAusDemTal I was wondering about that too!! How can working class people get that much money in only a few weeks?? perhaps I am misunderstanding life insurance it’s not really a big thing in my country

They wanted your DNA. Soda can, oldest trick in the book.

Death penalty in my opinion he planned their deaths

The evidence against him was not strong enough

I think they knew they'd get him on his wife though

Kid killer... he will get his justice inside. Judging from the walker he already has couple boyfriends.

if you think he is getting out I highly doubt you understand how the criminal justice system works - ain't no way will he succeed in a parole hearing.

I’d love to see a collab between him and Stephanie Harlowe

Or he’s the first person to do true crime with an actual personality.

🤣🤣🤣 Nice

I think three is a little charitable, don't you?

My dad used to say 2 brain cells 1 the size of a coffee bean and 1 a little bit smaller. If I can pass this on to anyone our legacy will live on:)

Blames himself all the way to the buffet!!! Homicidal money addict can barely hoist his obese arse out of the car .oof.

I blame myself too when i do something

He and O J.are helping to find the true killers.

He treats himself everyday

His wife went along with it though so she's almost as guilty. I believe she knew all along and only came forward once she though she was next.

I want to go even further and have Mike put a condition to watch on his vids, so that everybody who wants to watch has to agree to jump up and do the dance whenever a life insurance policy is paid out the only exception is for people watching at work they can do the dance sitting down as long as they spin their chair 360 at some point in the dance.

I think Mike is a he.

I remember it too. Wasn't there a movie of this?

Oh god, that's terrifying...

I guess hearing his terrified horses screaming was just background music for him. They were insured, too.

Things this channel has taught me: 1: *Never* get a life insurance policy 2: If you absolutely have to get life insurance you should *never* tell anyone that it exists 🌳: If you ignore 1 & 2 you will get murdered

True Story Me (after a year of marriage): I was thinking, it would probably be a good idea to get some life insurance on me, in case something happens you'll be ok. Wife: We have life insurance on you. Me: We do? When did we get that? Wife: About 6 months ago. Me: Don't you have to see a doctor to get life insurance? Wife: You saw a doctor. Me: I did? When? Wife: Don't you remember? At (names a city). Me: I thought that was for my new job. Wife: Nope, it was for your life insurance. Me: 😯 10 yrs later Wife: How come you never eat my cooking? Me: You know why. Wife: That's not funny!

Really sucks that some people are so focused on money rather than just being happy with their lives 🤦🏽

I used to sell life insurance

For real, if I ever get it, I won't tell anyone, and I certainly won't tell the beneficiary who is the beneficiary. Haha I wonder HTF this guy kept getting it... How did no one ever catch on before?
