Wow, to be an officer and be ridiculed as a "whistleblower" for shady business, while that being your job to prevent crime, just says a lot about the crookedness of the police department.
Law enforcement is strictly political. It’s like playing Game of Thrones in there. I worked for a sheriff’s department for about 3 years. If you weren’t in the inner circle you would remain as a normal deputy for your entire career, even though I had a bachelor’s in criminal justice, military experience as a E5 at the time, and wanted to move up in the department, I was constantly denied promotion because I “didn’t fit what they are looking for”.
Yeah, that really bothered me. He got walked all over when he told the truth and then later he did something wrong by murdering this man his fake girlfriend accused of abusing her and hurting the babies that never had. So then he would have been in trouble for that too. I’m glad he told the truth but it’s sad he committed suicide too bad he didn’t report her to the police and say she’s trying to hire me to murder her husband supposedly he’s abusing her. He should have left her. I think maybe he thought he’d get in trouble no matter what he did right or wrong.
Both men were honest at their work. Bruce built his living with hard work and dedication. Jerry was ousted for being honest. They should never have met this evil woman. Life played them unfairly dirty. Good people always seem to get the worst.
I met my husband on an AOL chatroom in 1999 when I was 16 and he was 17, we’ve been together ever since (going on 24 years and married for 15 years)❤️.
I too got to know my husband online, albeit in a video game in 2015. I wasn't living in my country at the time, and then it turned out he was indeed from the same country I came from. Needless to say, we've been married for almost 5 years. So I wouldn't discourage people from getting to know each other online, although it is always necessary to be extremely careful.
And that is exactly why the police department will never get any better. Finally a man comes along and trying to do things correctly and bring it to the boss attention. And this is what happened to him at work.
You do realize that was in 1994, and we're now in 2023? Police Departments are much different now in a positive way. Nobody hates bad cops more than the good cops and everything is done to get rid of the bad.
@@skreemqueen7520maybe they just harassed him and bullied him until he quit. Then it’s not their fault bc he chose to leave. It’s awful to think you can get reprimanded for doing the right thing. But it happens all the time. Job retaliation… or reprisals, I guess? All I know is, without a contract, job security is just nonexistent anymore. Even if you do everything right, they’ll fire you over something dumb so they can hire someone and pay them less.
So this happening means ''the department'' of which there are hundreds upon hundreds across the globe will not get better because of these random cases of crookery? Which happens in ANY job setting ever from top 1% celebrity to any sort of office work or even relationships between people btw. A lot of good work, far more than you shall ever know is done by the police every hour, You just want an excuse to feel validated in your beliefs above those you view as authority above you. Yes bad stuff happens, Does that mean that ''OH this one nurse murdered her patients in secret, the ENTIRE MEDICAL INDUSTRY is now evil''
Many people get bored with that. They probably never imagined it would be boring (thoughts like that were probably not part of their mental life then) when they started down that path of marriage, husband, kids, and businesses they probably lost interest in years ago.
Good grief, Sharee is as evil as they come! The level of psychological warfare that she so casually inflicted on every single individual that stepped into her shadow is just astounding 😳
Its so weird when someone hears about a murderer that they never met, and they just need to meet them and fall in love with them. What is wrong in your brain?
I've read theories that women who do that are often women who have gone through repeated and serious abuse, and this is a way for them to gain control over their lives, feeling loved but still safe with the dude being locked up.
@@tcf_iceland Very true, and both straight and gay men go through it too. I grew up being tormented as soon as the other kids could tell I was different Even though at that young age I didn't know that me being attracted to other boys meant I was gay and I never acted on it. Then I ended up with someone over a 3 year period who physically, emotionally, and mentally abused. One of his favorite things after a beating was to tell me I was a worthless F$g and when he was done with me know one would want anything to do with me and that had me fucked up for years afterwards believing I didn't deserve anything good in life or true happiness, BUT I eventually healed and have gotten better EXCEPT for a few years ago he contacted me to get back together and I was feeling SO ALONE I thought to myself well if I can't do ant better at least I know what I'm getting myself into and then I wouldn't feel so alone. Luckily that only lasted 5 minutes before I smartenned up KNOWING I DO deserve better. Things CAN get better for these women, they just have to want it to and realize their self worth. I wrote this knowing I'm probably going to get trolled but I don't care, I just hope my story can help someone or maybe start the process of reaching out to someone and asking for help. I'll be 49 October 3rd and although my life's over half over I still hold out hope and always try to be positive
I live near the area Sharee lived. Each time I hear more about this case, it just more and more disturbing how she manipulated these men. Even more disturbing that it caused them to lose their lives.
@viesan7816 women do this on some level whether it's getting guys to pay for everything while they spend there money and his, tell guys how to be real men, guys are really juzt push overs with no backbone half the time.
I remember this. His scrapyard wasn't far from the town that we were living in at the time. It was such a wild story. The manipulation was one of the worst.
Just remember. This whole thing was made possible by dial-up modems and uploads that took crazy long while you were paying by the number of hours of use. The chat rooms were insane.
Yeah I'm old enough to remember. You had the time to see an image drawing itself line by line and forget about high resolution, I think the best available was 480, and they took an eternity to load, most were 240 or even lower res.
Born and raised in Michigan, and still living here, it always surprises me when people highlight cases from this State. We always get overlooked, even though there are so many controversial and insane criminal/civil cases that take place here. If you like True Crime, Michigan has more than enough content to keep you satisfied, truly.
Are you familiar with That Chapter?? If you enjoy Coffeehouse Crime, you'll love that channel, too. Mike has covered several interesting cases from Michigan. I'm also a lifelong Michigander from Grand Rapids.
As a Michigander, I love how you represented us. I moved here in early adulthood, and have a friend who knew Sharee’s daughter. Awesome coverage, as usual. RIP Bruce.
@@lilpukey If you hate it, you should move somewhere else. I lived someplace that I absolutely hated, but later moved somewhere that I actually enjoy. It is hard to move, but if you are unhappy, it is totally worth it.
Ya know, sometimes I hate being single, but then I see stories like this and think "maybe it's not so bad 😅". I feel so bad for her murdered husband. He fell in love with a horrific monster and didn't even know it 😢
Yeah, being single isn’t as bad as being with a horrible person that end up killing you or using you to harm others. In general, we can meet people in person that are very bad too. I’d tell myself to enjoy single life to the fullest because one day you will get married and you don’t want to regret that you should have enjoyed those single years better. Not saying marriage is a trap, if you marry a good one it’s a blessing but I don’t want to waste any of my life.
Easy for those who experienced love one way or another, and now are single. I am 35, I was single my entire life, still am, and probably will be till I die. I have a skin disease, that depends on temperature and how moisturized my face is. And it all started at the age of 14, when I went on vacation with family to the beach. To the point - I burned my face in the Sun, I remember my skin turning thick, hard to the touch and my shoulders also were burned, to the point I couldn't sleep and remained under the shower, because it killed the unbearable itching. The disease progressed, gradually all the girls lost any interest in me, people started looking at me. When I went to highschool it fully developed, changing my appearance from a normal looking, handsomish guy, to an ugly funny to look at freak. I couldn't take all the abuse, so my third class was individual. In 2006 I was in a hospital for 2 weeks - their diagnose - body dysmorphic disorder. For years I went to different psychiatrists and they did not even know what BDD was. Because it's a made up bs mental illness to shut up everyone, who has a problem with their looks. Only in my case people actually stare and when with friends, they laugh, and I heard a couple of times "look, how ugly he looks!". Normally people do not shout it, but they laugh behind my back and don't engage any further, except for pointing fingers at me. I developed severe depression, severe anxiety and depersonalization. In my dreams I am always in my teens and my friends do everything right and I always lose, can't even do basic assignments. Nostalgia hits very hard. Now for the best - I can kinda control to a degree how I look - if I use enough purifiers and creams that dry my skin, I look somewhat normal. Otherwise my face, especially the cheek area, loses shape, I become round and uglier than ugly and funny to stare at. You normally don't look at ugly people, well, I'm beneath them, so I look like a freak, ugly freak to look at and, when with friends, laugh at. So essentially I became ill right before I had a chance and being intimate with a woman. I never had a woman and it kills me. Normally I am a very social person, I know this, but my face keeps me in check. Been to dozens of dermatologists, psychiatrists and no one can help me. I recently found thanks to this AI chat that there is something like face procedure where they test for different things. I recently felt so down, like never before, that my existence is one big nonsense and there's no way that procedure will uncover anything at all, I don't feel the need to rush it like before because I'm all out of energy and wish to be left alone and just sleep. All day, everyday. At the same time I feel enormous anxiety, my father is 70 and mother is 68, I fear their death. They are my only emotional support and with them gone I will either off myself or land in a hospital for the rest of my entire life for trying to off myself. I have a brother and a sister, they both have jobs, their lives, their families and I, I will always be lonely. I should have never been born, I only brought my family distress and depression. I hate myself for doing that to my family. Why I wasn't a miscarriage. If this is some trial from God, then he can go f himself. All I wanted was a nice wife and kids...
@@belladonnahigh9206I have a bad skin condition too. Was burned on my face for the sun from 2nd and 3rd degree burns. I used sunscreens but the medicine I was on made me burn more easily. Even my hands were sunburned. It did heal but took awhile and I had a skin condition with no cure since. Even with makeup sometimes people could still see it. Changing how I clean my skin and getting much older it has calmed down. Even with it calmed down it’s still awful people see me without my makeup they stare at me and make faces and say I’m so I ugly and some ask if I got a bad sunburn and I haven’t had one since I was 13. I didn’t find a good many until I was 41 years old. Now, I’m 43 I still look I the mirror and worry if I don’t have access to makeup to at least even out the skin tone people will stare at me in horror. Not sure how my husband can handle looking at me without makeup on. My skin condition can make my skin very thick and it looks like I have severe acne but it’s not acne. None of the medications made it better actually made it much worse. I can go blind if it spreads into my eyes. So I’m always worried about that. I’m disabled severely and have several chronic illnesses and several forms of chronic pain. That’s much worse not be able to do basic things most people take for granted. Every muscle hurts and connective tissues. My face hurts too when I tell anyone that laugh at me like I’m crazy. But that’s part of the illness. None of them have cures either. Even in my condition I still strive to think positive and still focus on the blessings I do have in life. I could tell you my whole story but I’m not going to. Thought about writing a book there’s so much that happened people would things it’s like sci fi or made up.
@@belladonnahigh9206 I'm sorry this happened to u. Maybe it's time to look into that face procedure. Do something positive, maybe there is something they can do for u. U won't know unless u try. It's better than sulking, feeling sorry for urself, & wanting to off urself. This test may be able to help u, and u've been sitting around all this time, when u could've been cured all along. Please, don't off urself, that's the cowards way out. I couldn't leave ur comment alone, bc I don't want u to do that to urself. Now, snap out of it, and get ur ass down there, & do that test damn it. Seriously, what is the worse that can happen? I think there is something that can be done, and this could be it. How will u know, if u don't give it a chance? God Bless, & please be safe.
I met my partner online back in 2002. We've been together for nearly 20 years. We always say we're still trying to figure out which one's the serial killer.
One thing that always strikes me about cases like this is how certain men can convince themselves that they are "deeply & genuinely in love" with someone who is cheating with them on a current partner. Tragic circumstances tend to ignite the hero impulse, I suppose. I myself was in such a position many, many years ago (I was under 20). It's funny how we can sometimes talk ourselves into doing things "for love" that we would never do under any other circumstances (I didn't hurt, damage or injure anyone or anyone's property though)
What always strikes me as insane is dudes marrying obvious gold diggers that are way out of their league physically and much younger, and somehow convince themselves its an actual relationship. Do they just not have any friends to tell them, or are all the friends just 'haters'?
I think that's a pattern when you're dealing with narcissistic people and that you are trauma bonded to them in some way. It's a spectrum, so it may not go to the lengths shown in this case thankfully. However, it's terribly unhealthy for all parties involved no matter what. Good thing you are out of such a relationship if you can even call it that. It's more like torture really.
@@mazystarr Yeah, I know a real life couple like this (old somewhat wealthy guy, young good-looking foreign woman) and it's pretty obvious neither is actually in love with each other. It's sad because their kid is kind of messed up.
@@freyashipley6556exactly. I have been such a sucker , living with rose coloured glasses..all the while, the cheating wasn't half of what he did. I convinced myself he loved me and as relatively intelligent, however clean living person can't believe what a total Fool I was, but kind of seeing it happen just living in my own little world.
Early internet chat rooms really were terrifying. I remember being like 8 or 9 and someone in a chat seemed super interested in what I had to say (bikes are cool, baseball is my favorite, riveting stuff…). After a few hours whoever this person was asked if I wanted to be an online couple with them. Not having a clue what they meant I asked my parents about it. They immediately got rid of AOL and told me not to talk to anyone on the computer anymore. I got lucky, who knows where that could’ve led.
One of my favorite Forensic Files cases from season eight (2005). Great job on the case's specifics Adrian! I'm disappointed Jerry fell for Sharee's lies and two men died.
What a fantastic time for a Coffeehouse Crime drop! 🖤 I've been restlessly scrolling YT to no avail, only for Adrian's timing to be spot-on 😊 Sending Love & Light from Mississippi. Y'all stay safe and keep taking care of each other. ✌🏼🖤
Congrats! I love happy stories it makes me feel like there is hope for me but I have been stubborn not to have a gf for more than 15+ years now as a 43 year old. It is not like I've been arrested or that I'm overweight. I know I have 2 gifts. One was given and the other I earned it by chance or chosen. The one I was given is a gift and a curse at the same time BUT I'm grateful regardless that I see it more as a gift.
My mom and stepdad met on AOL around that time and have been happily married for 25 years. It makes me smile to hear other folks have sweet stories like theirs. ❤️
It's normal. Now a day's people act as if a relationship is something irregular. Think of tge billions of people in the world now think about how many actual cases of shit like this that happen do the ratio.
The one big defense I'll give to Jerry is I can see why he didn't do the right and rational thing of going to the authorities to resolve what he thought was his lover's life being in danger. The last time he did the right thing, it literally destroyed his entire life.
Yes!!! This is one of the cases that I love seeing multiple YTs cover. Someone always brings out new info! The fact that my favorite true crime vlogger is telling it is the cherry on top.
THIS!!!!!! I never saw all these pics!! I nearly ignored this! I've seen like x3 versions lol but this was a totally different viewpoint with the pics plus I felt Sheree seemed more 'real' and so I felt for her more.
Never ceases to amaze me how these people are never satisfied with hard working, generous people that will even adopt your kids. l would die for a man like that.
Man, the early days of the Internet. Kids today have no idea just how crazy those days were. Windows 98, floppy disks, AOL, IBM, Myspace... good times.
@@rachaelm3298 Maybe because it's nostalgic for them, a feeling something the future generation of people would probably never feel. That's just my take on it though.
@@rachaelm3298 I can understand that view point, it does sound that way. like I said that just my take on it and not a concrete answer, but I definitely get what you mean.
@@rachaelm3298 It's nostalgia. It was a fun time, and very exciting, and one of humanity's great transitions from the written word to one that was electronically distributed. Far from you being superior...we were the ones to experience something you never will, the first great transfer to the Information Age. I saw the whole thing from the first home computers (and the last of the old "supercomputers" that are now outcompeted by my Roomba) to the first Internet post through the first public networks to today where even my mower is on the Internet and cell phone network. You'll have experiences like this as well, some of which I'll share. Probably with the first major genetic breakthroughs, coming shortly. No, seriously, stay tuned. I have no children or grandchildren just because the predictive path, barring massive changes we won't make, is for severe ecological problems in the 2040's and 2050's. But great news, they can be nostalgic about that. "I remember the Second Dust Bowl..."
Another American case where police use a "lie detecting machine" on a suspect and actually base their opinion on it. It's pretty ridiculous how they've been duped into believing these things.
With you 💯 percent. The idiocy of police and the press implying one has something to hide if they refuse one yet admit they are not one hundred percent accurate. In reality you can be hooked up to a toaster and receive the same nonsensical results. They need to be abolished altogether. Its junk science.
Lik detector test aren't really used in courts and is a pressure tactic by the police. They want to see if the suspect changes his story after going through the lie detector.
It's still an ongoing case, but do you think you could look into the recent murder case in Dandridge, Tennessee? The man who committed the crime was apprehended and is awaiting trial right now. The man he murdered was my grandfather-in-law John Quesenberry. It was an ongoing thing between the poor excuse of a man and the church that my grandfather attended.The police definitely failed my grandfather and his wife. You'll be able to find more details on it if you search for it. Thanks Adrian.
@-theviolinist-7710 thank you. They have the guy pretty much (from what I can tell anyway) dead to rights on it and they revoked his bond so he will have to sit in jail until court. So, at least there's that.
@@JIMWESTDG glad they did. Better than having him out and about after what he did. Especially if he lives in the same area. Ye don't need that small injustice on top of everything else
Tragic and yet sick . At least Bruce came clean and as for Sharee ,words cannot describe her..Glad she got life inside and the crazy free time was over ...A terrible story ....Many thanks ....
Another great video Adrian, not only are you informative about the cases you cover but also the locations and main features of the city, town or village. Nice tartan shirt btw
After hearing just the 45 seconds of the intro. She sounds like the blueprint for a lot of ladies and men and how they use the internet and social media and dating apps today and their psychology and viewpoints.
Soo locks are a bit north of there my friend. :) I live in Sault Ste. Marie Ontario and we share the soo locks with Sault Ste. Marie Michigan! You’re the best Adrian. Thanks for all your hard work ❤️
I feel bad for the guy that killed himself. Obviously he got used but the bottom line is he is a murderer. He still killed a man in Cold Blood. The only actual victim is her late husband
Hey Adrian, I have a case suggestion for you. If you have not covered the Lululemon murder, committed by Brittany Norwood against Jayna Murray, I'd love to see a Coffehouse Crime deep drive into this case.
What happened to that innocent guy, John I think, is the perfect example of why police can't pursue a case without hard evidence. I've heard of cases where they had every reason to believe someone was guilty, but had to let them go, and it was frustrating because in that case the person really WAS guilty. I feel bad for what he went through, as just another one of Sharee's innocent victims.
I remember AOL. I pretty much understood that you can't trust the people you're chatting with. I did make a couple good friends, though. One I still talk to, the other two have passed away.
I used to have AOL from 1996 till 2001. And then no internet from 2001 till 2006 when I got Xbox live on the original Xbox to play Halo 2 online and I have had internet ever since. I was 16 years old in 1996.
Am I the only one that feels sorry for Gerry too? A basically 'good' man, terribly manipulated,who thought he was protecting an abused woman... How thoroughly evil this woman is. She is exactly where she belongs.
@@abiolaakorede1509 Remember. He reported something to his corrupt police department and was pushed out. I understand why he was probably reluctant to go to them for help after they caused him to fall into depression.
I mean, he could have offered to help her in other ways. Get her somewhere safe. Of course she would have had some reason that wouldn’t work but I still think most people would be able to stop short of murder even if they did believe her story. He wanted to be with her AND wanted them to share the life insurance payout. He regretted it only because he got neither. Regardless of what she told him, they were both doing it for selfish reasons. I’m sure he told himself it was because he was “protecting her” but again, if that was the case, they had many other options besides the most extreme. So no. I don’t feel bad for him and certainly don’t feel bad for her. They both got what they deserved.
@@abiolaakorede1509 Remember , he just got duped by a corrupt police department he used to ride with, and tried to be a whistleblower hence it got him depression. All this made him vulnerable to manipulation and aversion to the police. And given how any American PD acted and how many example of neglect presented by Coffeehouse`s mountain of video. He tried to do a good thing, but it is hard to blame him for it.
I don't really feel that sorry for Jerry to be honest. He killed another person out of some sense of chivalry or being a manly man, rather than using the knowledge and resources that he should have had as a cop to have things properly investigated. In my eyes, it doesn't matter that he was manipulated, at the end of the day he made his own decisions, and the choices that he did make cost him everything.
AOL was the days... Dial up internet..Bzzz clong nerrr zzz ding ding erghhhhh... Welcome to AOL.. you have mail.. i miss those days. The nostalgia gives me body tingles. The chatrooms were lit.. probably cause we were all like, wow! I'm talking to people on the other side of the world . :) Back when this was a smiley face :'D
I listen to a TON of true crime and this is my first time hearing this case. Nice job as always, appreciate the Nero reset at the end! keep up the good work.
Thank you for staying true to your content; others I used to follow, disappointed me by straying away from what drew me to them in the first place. Anyway, thank you for your sound advice and Nero; he is such a beautiful cat. 🥰
It's always good to end in a Nero palate cleanser ( ◜‿◝ )♡ This woman took all that she had for granted, and people died as a result. I hope it eats at her the rest of her life.
@@cruisepaige You're right. Autocorrect must have switched it. It tried to do that to me earlier when I was writing about a eyeshadow palette. (≧▽≦)
It won't eat at her. People like her feel justified in everything that they do and they don't grow or change. They don't have self-awareness, gratitude, or even empathy. They're stuck in a child-like selfish state permanently and even intense therapeutic intervention may not rehabilitate them. She is probably still proud of herself and doing the same manipulative shit in any small way she can to whomever she meets in prison.
I remember an old dateline or 48 hours or forensic files etc on this case. They showed the not so naughty parts of the VHS videos she sent her lover... Holy guacamole were they height of cringe!!
Thank you, I love your gentle way of 'explaining / informing / asking' through your videos, I always look forward to them, keep up the brilliant work you do 🙂
I just want to say I really love and appreciate how much reverence you take with all of the places you cover. You never blame the place, you never speak ill of it, you always give each place its due and why it's so great. Thank you for that.
Case suggestion, if you're looking for a bit different angle on technology meeting crime, and a case that hasn't been frequently covered: Hans Reiser was one of those great big up-and-coming stars of Linux development... until he murdered his wife Nina Reiser. Now, it takes some strange sort of mental fortitude to delve deep into the Linux kernel, but usually not so much that you start killing people.
I remember this story from the TV news, and when I see her pictures I thought how did she get married 3 times and now I when I heard she got married a 4th time that blows me away but I guess husband # 4 is pretty safe as long as she stays in prison...
@@stacykeller3812 Me too- felt soo immensely sorry for him + he sincerely presumed he loved her so very much - She convinced me,mere outsider looking in,she loved him wholeheartedly, so We can just imagine how simple it were for him to be reeled in😥😩😧
I really like that you everytime tell us to look after each other! I have a favourite german True Crime-Podcast, The host tell on every case at The end:“ Empathy is the loss of each bad Behaviour and Cruelty so be empathetic (does this Word exist?) at all time to your family and friends and look after each other!“ Everytime I hear it, i think thats right & I like to hear it at the End of each Episode!
Thank you so very much for all your dedicated hard work-Thank you for covering this case...I saw the Movie for this case with Eric Roberts as the main man playing the part of Jerry...He was absolutely amazing & soon immensely convincing... Your cat is amazingly adorable... I'd love her/him to be in more of your videos... By the way,the cute kitty whom's always slumbering blissfully in front of the coffee cups,i presume is an ornament very similar to your gloriously gorgeous cute kitty, yes? 😇😻😇
My husband still uses AOL and refuses to change. Adrien, Iove seeing your sweet, beautiful Nero! Having him at the end of a case to "reset the vibes" is a great idea. When I watch ir read cases that are particularly dark, I look at pictures of kittens and puppies to clear my mind. 😊
I knew a woman just like that from 1991 when we were both 13 up until 2019 - an amazingly beautiful Pathological Narcissist with Histrionic & Anti-Social Personality Disorder as well; she is currently married to her husband number 5 (could be 6 or 7, no one knows but her), an incredibly rich man who will turn 70 in a year or two...... I on my part, fortunately, haven't heard from her in last 3 years!😅
Growing up in the early 2000s, I remember all those cheesy ads and infomercials they used to play us in class talking all about the dangers of the Internet and how there were crazy people and creepy predators everywhere. I swear, those always seemed to have the opposite effect. Like D.A.R.E.
I rarely feel bad for murders but I do feel bad for Jerry. He was in love and was completely tricked while he was mentally unstable and made a bad decision. In the end he felt so bad that he ended his own life and told the world about the monster he was dating.
Yep, the AOL days was my first experience with the internet. I was active in chats and message boards. This was back in the days when AOL was not free. So, I became a community leader where I ran one chat and several message boards and got my subscription to AOL free. It was a different time back then in the Internet AT THAT TIME was not considered risky by most of us. This is 1996 when we got out first computer. Post Script…..Nero, you’re a gorgeous kitty! 🐾💜
A girl saying you hit her when that never happened can be dangerous. My ex decided to do that to gain sympathy for herself after we broke up. Literally every single person she told that to that knew me laughed in her face and said that didn’t happen because they all knew what kind of person I actually am. Even her best friend cut off her friendship with my ex and became one of my best friends to this day. The problem is the people that didn’t know me who she told this to. One guy was ready to find me and attack me. The only reason it didn’t happen was that he was told by her ex best friend about how that never happened and how there is a 0% chance I would ever do something like that. All I can say is thank god everyone that knew both of us realized how full of shit she was. I can’t imagine losing all of my friends over a lie and if she said that to the wrong person who knows what could have happened to me.
Bruce Miller sounds like he was a completely wonderful stand-up guy. There was no reason he needed to die - it was all greed on Sharee's part. I also feel terrible for Jerry Cassady, who was in a bad mental place when he happened upon this Black Widow online. The one positive thing Sharee did was confess to her crimes. That is something that rarely happens. I was a teenager when this whole incident happened, and I used AOL chat all the time. I can attest to it being like the World Wide Wild West Web (try saying that five times fast). No Moderators, no nothing, just craziness. Stay safe online everyone!
I was born in Flint, it's crazy to hear of a case from such a sleepy town... usually all we're known for is the water crisis, of course, things are that small. This one really took me by surprise.
"Would you ever think in its true infancy the internet..." As someone who saw a beheading video at 8. Yes. No matter how you finish that sentence I would imagine it.
@@joanhoffman3702 Back in the day we had a few places where videos from certain Middle Eastern groups that liked collecting heads ended up on. They were pretty often used to shock others. Usually whenever you clicked a random link you were happy if it was an elderly penis and not a beheading.
Great Video! It's interesting to see Michigan show up here since I grew up there. Sad what happened to Bruce Miller. Glad she also went back to prison. Another case that would be interesting for you to cover is that of Todd Geib. Easily one of the scariest and most frustrating cases that I've heard of growing up here. I do hope his family can get some justice.
The blue wall is so destructive to our justice system. If one cop breaks the unwritten code of silence they are treated like a outcast. It's like highschoolers trying not to tell the teacher something. Only that something is either taking an individuals life or beating them to the point they need medical attention, then refusing to give them medical attention.
