Man Eater | The Case of Tracey Richter 

Dustin's father committing suicide because he couldn't live with the death of his son breaks my heart.

The biggest crime is that child services kept giving her custody of the kids FFS...

It’s actually amazing how she got convicted twice, and yet still got custody of the children over their two fathers. That is so messed up

The footage of her son talking about "what happened" is scary. He was smiling and talking about it like he was explaining an action more to a friend, not explaining a scary and traumatic story. He was fully prepared to frame an innocent man and let his mom get away with it. He seems excited to play his role.

Tracy is that type of person that frightens me the most in society. They truly believe they are never wrong and always the victim. Sadly, they can convince some people of their “truth” along the way.

Ive had a bad fucking week. My wife and I are done. Have to move and sell all of my shit. But here I am. Feeling better cause mike is telling me a story that is infinitely worse then mine. Mike thank you.

She is what I call a *twist*. You have a normal life happening and suddenly you meet a new friend, lover, etc. All of a sudden, there's weird drama going on. Once removed from your life, it returns to normal. These people are insidious. There's always something with them.

Even after getting a life sentence, she STILL had the audacity to tell Dustin's family that she didn't murder their son. I'm also forever disgusted by our justice system and how they almost always favor the mother, regardless of how diabolical or psychotic they may be.

Her first husband saved his own life by hiring a private investigator.

how she weaponized her own son against his father is just disgusting. Such a horrible mother - and wife for that matter. I'm glad that Michael at least managed to get the hell out of dodge with the two youngest kids.

Remember when good old Pam Hupp paid that guy to come to her house in guise of reenacting something, and then killed him in "SELF DEFENSE"? After she murdered someone else and watched someone go down for a murder they didn't commit. I see a lot of similarities . A narcissists folly is thinking they have thought through it all, that they are so smart, smarter than everyone else. It's so satisfying to see people like this be brought to justice. Great story Mike, as always!

Unreal. She’s a total psycho. My ex wife has similar vibes with the greediness, free loading, legal troubles and cheating. So glad I never have to see her again.

How tf did she still get visitation rights for her kids after being found guilty of 1st degree murder and making fake reports about her husband’s abuse. How did she also get her half of the first divorce after having an affair and trying to kill her husband? It’s beyond belief

SHE tried to kill him, forged his signature, accused him of child abuse, was ordered to have psychiatric treatment and yet SHE got custody of their child and HE had to pay her child support?

RIP Dustin, he really didn't deserve such a horrible ending to his young life, I hope his family have been able to find peace again

This has brought me close to 'trigger point'! My son's mother pulled some of those things on me and it leads to a very peculiar mindset and a lot of lost sleep. You begin to doubt yourself, and find it difficult to explain the behaviour to others because some of it sounds so unbelievable. Especially when the female is attractive and apparently gregarious. I was on the receiving end of a shedload of very painful emotional and physical abuse from her, and, to end the perfect day, like Tracey's ex, wound up in a police cell because of her lies. But hey, at least it got me away from her for a few hours I guess... Thankfully, so I understand from the various agencies I've become acquainted with through all that, the male partners are now being listened to more carefully, more often, as the civil lawsuits have been stacking up where the male was treated so unfairly. My advice to any guy on the receiving end of psychological and/or physical abuse is: 1)TELL SOMEONE. As soon as possible. Especially if there are (or she's threatened) accusations of abuse by you. Don't worry about how it sounds, just get it out there. 2) Run. Put miles between you if possible. 3) Change your number and, if you have kids or another reason where some limited contact is needed, get a number for her only which you can switch off to give you respite. (You begin to react physically to the sound of her text tone and it eventually causes a horrible stress/anxiety reaction. I've even had a gut-wrenching spasm when someone in a shop near me received a text on their phone from someone with 'her' text tone!) If I'd have done those things early enough I could have swerved CPTSD and a mountain of stress. Sorry for the ramble, but like I said, slightly triggered! ...aaaaand relaxxxx...

If my wife even talked about selling our pet to a lab the relationship would be over immediately. Poor John... he was way too patient and forgiving.

Police: that was a self-defence kill 10 years later: you know, we actually LOOKED at the victim and that was a murder.

It's remarkable how psychopaths of either gender never seem to have problems finding a partner. Coming from a salty but harmless single.

Her brother is a detective and he believed her story?? He needs a different job.

A senseless murder committed by a narcissist. I’m so saddened for Dustin and his father. RIP. Not to forget the poor animals who were sold as objects to a lab to be tortured. Unbelievable.

Dustin's poor father... Wish he would have been able to know at least his son's name got cleared before he died. That breaks my heart...

I laughed so hard at her loud histrionics when the verdict was read.

This woman is so dangerous; so sorry these individuals were hurt by her, it's very sad. This conviction was so overdue!

Having a child in order to fix a marriage is one of the most evil things someone can do.

I for one am glad that Mike was able to get back to Australia with the kids. YIKES. My heart broke when Dustin's father took his own life because he couldn't live without his son. :(

I really find it hilarious in the last couple of videos how the ladies seem to suddenly go Gray for lack of hair dye in prison LOL

Congratulations to the judges who gave the kids to a monster. You must be so proud.

Imagine being murdered because there’s a couple who’s fighting for custody, something that literally has nothing to do with you. So damn messed up! This case is really upsetting.

I’m familiar with this story but didn’t know that Dustin’s father killed himself out of grief. That is so awful 😭

I hope the children in this story are doing ok as can be. I know they’re adults now but how do you recover from the fact that your own mother did such awful things and affected so many innocent lives 💙

I love the way you do your narration on your channel. I don't fall asleep and your funny sense of humor when you talk about the villains, is really hilarious. But you do show emotion and respect for the victims too. Love your channel.

Dustin's father's story is the most tragic thing about this whole story.

it's such a shame that the son Bert was so brainwashed by her. I hope he can get therapy one day that helps him realize he's being used :(

I watch this episode often. Mike's sense of humor makes me forget that he's telling a tragic story. RIP DUSTIN 😇😇😇

I love your narrative style. It’s funny but I feel the contempt you have for the criminals. This kind of case makes you want to never be in a relationship with anyone. Who do you absolutely know you can trust? Watch out for yourselves everyone and make sure you know who you’re dealing with.

Seeing her found guilty and crying was the best part of the video, finally being called out on her life long psychotic bullshit

This is one of the sadder cases on the channel. The part where the father shot himself is pretty heartbreaking.

Imagine being physically assaulted by your wife and the police being like "look here sicko look at what you're doing to that poor woman, taking those punches and you bruised her hands with your skin, we're taking you to jail" and taking him to jail rather than the person who was actively beating on him.

Thank goodness her husbands survived. Very sad that Bert is still conned by her. RIP, Dustin.

Wait, are we just gonna cruise right on by the fact that she “accidentally” sent their pets to an EXPERIMENTAL LAB @11:17?? Like, how tf does that even work?! 😳😿

Seeing her in court looking nowhere near her best made me smile because you just know she would have wanted to be the best looking one in the room and wasn't. (Edit) guys I never said she looked good at anytime I said she wished she looked good but didn't.

Tracy is a very scary individual. She was attractive and no doubt this allowed her to get away with a lot of red flag behavior. She knew how to play the role of damsel in distress. Sad she didn't care about the people she walked over, killed, ruined their career and lives. So sad Dustin's dad took his own life before her lies caught up with her.

Damn mike you really came and went a long long way. 3.2 million on this one video. Awesome

As soon as the P.I said “Don’t go home , it isn’t an good idea” I would of called the cops, We ALL would of been walking into the house

The real tragedy here is that she took the life of such a young man who most likely looked up to her. Dustin Wehde didn't deserve to die and his poor father didn't deserve to lose a child..

Love how you bring life to these stories. Bless all the families

You do a really good work, here. Every time, every episode. And your talking has good timing; and your face expressions are precise, underlining what you said / think; and you soften tough stories. In sum, you do a really good work. Thanks for reading this comment...

The fact she got the first kid after being proven to be lying and forging a signature baffles me.

The moment he said "kitty got claws" while the sarcasm came through. I knew there was more to the story 😅

This case is so sad in more ways than one. It's awful that she managed to get away with abusing her husband and then trying to ruin their life by claiming they did the very thing she was doing.I think the justice system needs to do better when it comes to those who are being abused because this allowed for the opposite to happen

I'm stunned that she gave the home address of her ex-husband AND kids to a criminal while in jail so he could kill them if he ever gets free. How evil!!!!

When she was saying "When are you gonna be home? I'm already here waiting" and the PI was saying she was nowhere near the home, I probably would've called the police and told them I had reason to believe there's an intruder inside of my house and to check on it

Scratched my head trying to figure out how one woman could do so many things and escape consequences over and over and over. Then they mentioned she had a brother in the police…and it all clicked into place. Certainly not the first time. She sounds like a real life factor 1 psychopat

I swear I love this guy. His sarcasm really makes these stories bearable. They’re so heart breaking. But he makes me smile!

I'm a Polish girl living in Ireland. I learnt English and love different accents. I've been watching Mike for quite a while and been surprised I pretty much effortlessly understand 99.9% of what he says. And then I realised... because Mike is Irish 😅 Local accent for me

This is one of the saddest cases because Dustin didn’t deserve that. And his father passing away as a result, it’s truly heartbreaking. Prayers for the rest of his family ❤️ I hope that evil creature rots in prison

Sad thing is there are thousands of “John’s” and “Michael’s” out there abused and secluded from their children.

I really like how you tell a story. Very entertaining.

Hey Yo.. Your editing on these old videos is just incredible! Magnificent work🖒

Her sharing of his interests at the beginning of their relationship (before she changed completely) is a sign of NARCISSISM. It’s called “mirroring.”

damn this woman is horrifying. She cost so many people so much and the entire time there were people on her side. Poor pets lost their lives in a sick laboratory. A dentist lost his job and livelihood over a lie. A husband lost his future and son in a divorce A man took his life and lost his own son

I have to admit... When I read comments about the crime shows that you post... THAT CHAPTER...You are my favorite !! ... It somehow restores my faith in humanity when a lot of people think like I do with just plain old common sense... Give good get good...Give bad get bad.. 🙏 💕

I watched several docus and YT videos on her. You top even documentary films in terms on info and delivery. You are talented man PS. just fascinated by how horrible this woman is really

I wish his father was here to see Dustin's justice, rip to both

It’s actually kind of crazy how quickly Mike can find a story like these, get all the details, write a script, find relevant footage and make all of them run over 20 minutes. Bravo, chap

Hey, I was watching Tubi and it recommended your video! This video MOF. I remember watching this. Congrats on the streaming service 🎉 You are definitely in my top 5 true crime on YT.

I can’t even finish watching … this is too sad… the dad killed himself afterwards because the pain he was in.. what an evil, cold, vile, wicked woman who will face the Judgment of God one day, as we all will

I honestly have no clue how you can get more details sharing 30 minutes on a case than watching hours and hours from several different platforms covering the same story. You have such an amazing gift.

dustin’s poor dad 🥺 i wish he was still around to see the outcome of this

Shes an absolutely horrifying psychopath. Its so sad that she has had such a long-lasting negative effect on her oldest son. She should never be released from jail.

My guess is Tracy was sleeping with Dustin. Maybe once or twice, give the boy a taste and then she was able to make him do whatever she wanted. I have a hard time believing she held him at gun point and made him write stuff in a notebook, more likely that she played it off as “role play”

That poor dad who was so tormented by the murder of his son, All because of that murderous harlott that wanted to get back at her ex. May she rot forever.

Sometimes I can feel like I've been single long enough, then I see a story like this and reconsider, "you know what, no thanks, I'm good."

I've been watching you since quarantine and I just think that you are a great story teller!!! Thank you for all you do and the time you take to bring us those unfortunate cases. Happy Holidays!!!

Since finding mikes channel I find myself binging and going to much older posts to bring myself up to speed!! Really loving this channel!

“Her ex-husband gave us this photo…” I will never get over that part, I don’t know why it makes me laugh

The most appalling aspect of this story is the number of times the courts gave this woman custody of her children.

I d pay to see a video of her arrest...her reaction 👌👍

The fact that Bert Richter commented about this video and was upset that Mike talked down on his family makes me wonder why he's still backing up someone who clearly murdered not only an innocent boy but basically is the reason the father is gone too.. May they rest in peace.

Poor Dustin. I hope that he and his father rest in peace. I'm so sorry for their family.

I don't believe that there is a happy ending in there at all. You do good work, Mike, keep it up.

This is so infuriating that people keep believing her

Wait what? She was dragged away by her ponytail then choked unconscious. But then woke up to the guys trying to kick the door in. Weren't they just in the same room choking her out? Confused.

"Her Richter sense kicked in" "John pitman, the Turd" "Fucker shot Kennedy ya know". 😂😂 I love Mike's videos

I,from Australia like the way you put the narrative’s together. You make it entertaining. Keep doing them.

Great video Mike! Loved the change in format m8.

The narcisism of this lady is textbook. When you think you've found your soul mate always question yourself if it's not a narcissist. There are plenty out there.

This entire thing was about getting even with her first husband. Humans needs to be hyper vigilant for sociopaths.

Mike, keep up the great content….and as always thank you 🎉!

Literally in jail for murder and STILL gets visitation rights for her kids? WHAT?!

That third guy, the fiance, must have been like, dodged a missile there.

She gave the family pets to an experimental lab? That's heartbreaking. She's got no empathy

Dustin was also on the spectrum and truly thought that Tracey was his friend that’s why he went along with her she did not hold a gun to his head to write that note , he wrote it out willingly as she stood behind him with a gun and when she was done with the note she shot him .

I binge watch your videos, they are that good!

I'm not one of those people who fixates on animals over humans but... She sold the family pets to a laboratory?! This woman was twisted in so many ways

Oh my goodness! That poor, poor boy. I assumed she would have just forged his handwriting, but the fact she forced him to write out everything at gun point.. he must have know she’d kill him with what he was being forced to do... what a monster

Hits close to home! Thanks for the good insights

Enjoyed it as always

Dustin's father unable to live without his son is so unbelievably sad. Reminds of hearing my Dad talk about how hard it was to be "without his son", talking about me when I was going through a horrible heroin addiction. I was lucky enough to get clean and mend our relationship before he passed away a few years back. I've managed to stay clean since, and just knowing he was willing to do anything to help me, and did do everything he could, is a big help. The guilt is tough though.
