The details of this case uncover a shocking story in which even the closets of family bonds will be broken. This is the tragic story of Heather Mack and Sheila Von Wiese. #HeatherMack #beyondevil #truecrime
I think she is not only psychopathic, but also delusional and possibly some level of insanity. She does not seem to operate in reality. She's dangerous and should not walk among right-minded folk.
So, they talked openly via text about every aspect of what they were going to do but used a code for the actual murder. How did anyone ever crack that, ffs 🙄
The fact that she received 10 years because they “didn’t believe she was as active in the murder as the boyfriend” but the accomplice got 9 years for talking to them about it is ridiculous. It was HER MOTHER and she helped murder her! She shouldn’t be allowed to keep her baby for even a minute 😭
10 years prison in Indonesia and then extradited to US and she now might spend another 28 years prison in the US…. Yep there is no way to rehabilitate this monster
US always interfering. I understand they want to s3ctence their own citizen but she committed the crime in Indonesia. Along side her frat boy, they both should be taken out over there and dumped in the bits of the waters.
@@rawfoodphilosophy7061 She thinks she's smart and she is. A smart alec. "Bruh" on this side of the world is an "American thing" used by "American wannabe" teenagers. It's irritating.
The part that gets me the most is imagining how excited Sheila was to take her daughter on this trip. She went the extra mile to make sure it was all planned, she's used to walking on eggshells so making sure it was perfect with no problems. Just to see her own daughters face while she's being brutally murdered. So sad.
Yeah, however I'm displeased with the fact that Sheila forced Heather to kill two of her unborn children! Even if Heather conceived those two babies at a rather bad time in Sheila's eyes, the fact of the matter is, those were living beings inside of Heather's womb! It's like enforcing adoption on her daughter never once occurred to her! I'm not saying that what Heather did was right, being an accessory to her mother's murder, but it's as if her mother had no compassion for Heather's unborn babies! They could have been put up for adoption. ~Dutch
This was the most thorough telling of these events that I've heard thus far! Perfect. I heard information here that I hadn't heard on Dateline or anywhere else. Awesome job! Her and her BF are monsters.
@@rigel2112She had been displaying evil towards her mother for years. Unfortunately, she had never had to face any consequences for it…until she murdered her.
A lot of you don't seem to realize that Santorini is in Greece. She literally just checked into another hotel in the country where her husband died and where his body was. Im not sure why it was said she "left" the body in a morgue. That's where they keep dead bodies when you have to make arrangements- especially when your arrangements involve getting the body halfway around the world. Should they have camped at the morgue maybe? I'm pretty sure that's not allowed. But holy hell, the woman took her daughter to the next hotel on their itinerary- likely because they had reservations there- and actually stayed somewhere she could be contacted by officials and make travel arrangements for her dead husband.
I think it took two weeks to get my friend's body sent back to the US after he died on a plane trip returning to the USA from New Zealand requiring a ER landing on route. It is not an easy process and I am sure it is much easier to do from Greece than the Cook Islands. This girl is delusional.
It’s not that they just went to a different hotel- they should’ve gone home. Sheila’s husband just died, but he was also heathers father and how exactly is a small child supposed to even begin to figure out how to mourn when they haven’t even gone home yet? The vacation where her dad died just continued after his death like ummmm maybe cut the vacation short Sheila and bring ur daughter home
@@elizabethkilstrom5409 Making excuses for her is crazy. She was obviously evil and abusive. This girl is crazy and dangerous. How is it possible a young girl worth millions, throws her privileged life away by murdering her mother? Right when shes about to be an adult and move out? I dont think it has anything to do with the fathers death. She and her boyfriend wanted control of the millions now. Also I wonder if this shows up in statistics for domestic violence, which is what this is domestic violence. Its also amazing how many girls end up pregnant when they are headed to jail for serious offences.
@@elizabethkilstrom5409yeah she deserved to die cause she didn’t go home immediately!! /s some of you are ridiculous. Just as delusional as the killer.
@blanchehermine he meant killing a family member or friend, etc. Killing someone (not in self defense) is often out of pure selfishness. Greed. Anger. Pleasure. Euthenizimg a dangerous prisoner saves tax dollars and potentially protects officers or other inmates from harm. The death penalty should rarely be considered anywhere though.
It’s crazy to me that inmates are allowed to have social media and phones and certain prisons put that B&$? in solitary confinement until she expires with the rats and flies
The parents spoiled this girl to such an extent, that she felt she had no boundaries and apparently, where her mother was concerned, she didn't. Her mother didn't even have enough fear to stay away from her. This was bound to end this way.
This goes far beyond just spoiling your child Melissa :) Most spoiled kids dont murder their Mother and chop them up into peices. You are right though she did spoil her child but no one deserves being murdered and this is probably more about Greed, Elderly Abuse and Lack of Empathy (Possible Psychopathy).
She needed tough love from her mother,,, not the Mother just letting her get away with stuff,,, Sheila should have took the payment for the Hotel away and pressed charges on daughter for using her credit card for airline tickets.
@gaslitworldf.melissab2897 I'm surprised so many liked your comment. Your opinion here is detached from reality, as regards the murder, and completely ignores what are clear long term mental problems. Now her mother failed her by not getting her treatment at an early age, for whatever reasons. Millions of kids are spoiled and indulged, not just rich kids. Many self destruct and cause havoc in families. Their behaviour fills tabloid news every day. Rarely do they murder someone, let alone a parent. This young woman is psychotic.
It’s pretty effed up how they can go from a death sentence for this brutal murder to only giving her seven years, I hope justice will prevail here in the US, this woman should not be out among society.
If she hadn't had a baby with a black dude the odds of this happening to her would have been roughly the same as being struck by lightning after surviving an airplane crash while holding a winning Powerball ticket.
Not necessarily if someone is that evil they will commit the worst crime they think they’re clever enough to get away with regardless whether parent presses charges or not. You don’t expect your own child to murder you no matter their temper you’ll always want to believe they will mature and eventually change.
Been watching true crime for yeeeears and it’s just astounding how common dismemberment is, and it’s a lot of the time done by inexperienced first time killers. Wtf? Are we as humans just monsters or what??
I thought this too but someone made a good point. That we think there's a lot of dismemberments but really we are just hearing about many of the occurrences. It's not that common apparently.
You have NO say in the matter of leaving the body until it is "released" by proper authorities. It ensures that it is a natural (and in this case expected) death. After that, you must have the body prepared or cremated and then book reservations to ship the body or ashes to final destination. This could take quite some time. I'm sure it was agreed upon ahead of time what would happen after death as it was expected and he obviously wanted to travel until that point. Good for him! If I had that kind of cash, I would do the same.
How can anyone do anything to cause pain of any kind to there own mother? You only have 1 and she is the reason your alive right now, she put you ahead of herself and did until she died. Poor woman
Just insane. These cases always drive me crazy. If my cousin, brother or any relative told me about a plot to kill their mom or ANYONE I’d be calling the cops or someone. But it’s like in these situations the reaction is always to help
She is so entitled and that's the problem. She hasn't suffered any consequences for her prior actions. She is abusive, disrespectful, vindictive, and spoiled. Mom was too forgiving and I'm a witness that tough love is sometimes the only way to allow someone you love to succeed in life. You have to let them hit rock bottom to climb their OWN way up. Heather is a trip. Her confession was so dramatic in her own way. The sniffling and being extra; not a humble bone IN her body.
I NEVER understood and will never never understand why people who grew up privileged or in a stable family home become convicts or want to be seen as “bad” and decide to head down such a horrible path.
@@GhastlyCretinpersonally never heard of that term either but yes I’m assuming their using a politically correct term to not stigmatize all people who commit crimes as it’s not always done in an evil conscience such as this one.
I would suspect Tony , that it was never a conscious decision to be child free, but more to do with circumstances in your earlier years. I have many friends who are now in their 50/60/70’s who never had children, none of them ever set out with a plan to be childless, failed relationships earlier on or just being too self centred to sustain a long term relationship lead to it.
Threw her whole life away for what?? This is what I don't get about murderers. You throwing your life away over something or someone that you can easily find a unviolent way to get out of. If she really hated her mom she could’ve kept her head down and finished high school then moved away with her riches, but no. Just stupid
A troubled kid doesn't care about money and life. You don't live her life so you are in no position to judge her actions. Who knows what was going with that family. From all I see her mother was a bad wife to go on vacation when the husband was hurt. Maybe she was a bad mom too. I am not about to judge them because I really don't know them.
@@yeahumnah Good question. Mine only works if I confirm ANY online purchase with a code sent to my phone and I am being sent a report on the spending and new balance immediately after. Having said that, I am European and not sure how that works in the States.
That’s how I knew the mother was lying. She would spend her money because Heather felt she was entitled to that money. I did the same thing to my mom because she stole thousands of dollars from me.
Thankyou for this video as I had been following it earlier, but never knew about this update... great work with your journalism and attention to detail!
I'd do anything for my kids but I'd refuse any abuse and would have them arrested immediately if they assaulted myself or people I know, no ifs or buts, they're getting locked up.
Heather is DEFINITELY a sociopath, but I think Heather plays a role in her behavior. She sounds spoiled rotten with no boundaries. I would NEVER think to push my mom.😬
She actually seems like a psychopath. Sociopaths are more manipulative & strategic for gratification. They also can’t form authentic bonds. She’s bonded to her baby daddy & maybe her father as well. She just despised her mother and probably did all her life.
@@hiboktalampak1473You’re confused because adrialynn gave you entirely wrong information. Psychopaths are typically born (born evil, if you will) and are Vastly more manipulative and intelligent than sociopaths. They cannot form bonds, cannot feel love, cannot build connections, do not feel guilt. Think of the eyes of a shark. Now imagine that shark looking at you as prey. That’s a psychopath. Sociopaths aren’t born, they’re curated in their environment (trauma; ect) and actually can feel some TINY semblance of connection to people. They’re not as intelligent and more likely to end up in prison. They’re sloppy and prone to emotional outbursts and just as deadly. Since I’m not a psychologist I can’t diagnose the girl in this video; but now you know the difference. Sociopaths are criminals that will probably get fired from every job they ever work at. Psychopaths are likely to be CEOS/ in Congress.
WOW. I hope she gets a long, long sentence in her upcoming hearing. She knew the difference in right and wrong and there's no way a rebellious child like herself was forced to have abortions. She has always done what she wanted to do including planning and participating in her Mom's murder. Let her dance all she wants to in her little box for decades.
She won’t be having as much fun in a federal prison as she was in a Indonesian prison 😂 she gonna be bawling on the first day, ain’t gonna be no dancing or being in prison with her boyfriend. Just gonna be dread and concrete walls.
She knows good and dang well that she took her moms life cause she was a spoiled rotten brat! She says that she only found out the “real story of her father’s passing “ 2 weeks prior to this incident but had been talking about doing it for a few months 🙄🤬 if I’m not mistaken. Either way she’s disgusting and I PRAY THAT SHE NEVER EVER GETS CUSTODY OF THAT BEAUTIFUL BABY GIRL!
People just need to be honest to themselves. If your child kills you, then you deserve it 👏 you raised that child so you are to blame. Women will have a hard time swallowing that pill 💊 😕
No, this is a perfect example of bad parenting. Spoiling a kid is a form of xhild abuse and often leads to a unhappy life. Dad was a good musician but a horrible father.
Tragic. So senseless. No parent is perfect, no child is, I'm a Mom....when I think about how many children can readily and easily take their parents lives, the ones who brought them into this world it makes me sick inside. Murder is never the solution and it's all about 'GREED' in this case.....so selfish, just couldn't wait and actually 'wait for what'? The spoiled little psycho got everything she needed and desired. I hope she rots for all eternity, may Sheila rest in Peace.💗🙏🙏
She didn’t continue her holiday, she just moved to the next hotel on their itinerary, coz her reservation in the first hotel had ended, but she was in Greece itself, within reach of the authorities and making arrangements to get her husbands body back to the US
@yojez probably because the father had seen how his wife was towards their daughter, so he writes her out the will because she only cared about money, aka gold digger. She didn't care about her daughter.
how do you get from the possibility of facing a firing squad to 10 years??? Mind boggling… and that vile creature is still blaming the victim for her murdering her …
How someone wake up and plot to kill their own mother? She seemed to have everything she could ever want. I don't know why she thought her mother killed her father (it wasn't explained if Heather knew exactly the cause) but I would never blame my mom for something like that. There's a few questions that weren't addressed, but all I can say is I hope she's sentenced appropriately and lost custody of her daughter. This girl has no remorse whatsoever.
In her video she said she had just "learned" a couple weeks before the trip that her mom killed her dad. That doesn't explain her violence and abuse of her mom for years. She's a psychopath. Violent, liar, no empathy or remorse.
Her mother used to call the police on her own daughter. So I doubt she even cared about her. I think she was a narcissistic mother who just wanted to control the child, plus that mother was he'll bent on taking her money. Oh, and killing her grandchild. Great mum 👏
@@simonb9852 how do you know? you lived with them? are you having thoughts like heather to k*ll your parents? duh ! stop justifying such wrongful acts. by all accounts people who knew the family said the daughter was getting our of control. if she was an adult then fine, she was a teenager. if a mother doesnt care you people would say oh the mother doesnt care. if she caes she is a control freak and narcissistic. how dumb
@simonb9852 proof? There's no way her mom had control over her if Heather had the guts to push her mom into the bathroom, break her arm and unplug the phone 😂 yall trippin
6:05 not gonna lie, i think i’m more interested in how he died suddenly, 5 days after his will was changed to make his daughter the beneficiary. especially considering that the wife was completely cool with continuing the vacation.
Yah, I too am very interested in this. I think my jaw dropped open when he said she continued on with her vacation instead of mourning his loss. Something is definitely fishy about that.
Me too. That part seems suspicious in itself. He changed his will, died on vacation and she leaves his body in a morgue and finishes the vacation. Huh? The daughter is still a psychopath for killing her mother. She could have just left and spent her money like she wanted.
You have NO say in the matter of leaving the body until it is "released" by proper authorities. It ensures that it is a natural (and in this case expected) death. After that, you must have the body prepared or cremated and then book reservations to ship the body or ashes to final destination. This could take quite some time. I'm sure it was agreed upon ahead of time what would happen after death as it was expected and he obviously wanted to travel until that point. Good for him! If I had that kind of cash, I would do the same.
My son over the last few years has done nothing but criticize and tear strips off me. Previously, we had a very close relationship. I did all work but his dad was a saint. An incident occurred and from that time on, he appeared to hate - even though he would send loving Mother’s Day cards. Very very confusing. I was walking on egg shells as I couldn’t figure out what had happened and I didn’t want to lose him. Now, I don’t want to talk to him because he just wants to make me feel bad. Once I had made the decision to be the one initiating contact, while I was heartbroken, at least I knew I had no control over his feelings. Scary to think that a child could hate his/her mother that much. I hope this spoiled brat has a really bad time in jail.
I’m not a big fan of my mother because of all the hardship she and my father put me through. I tried talking to her a few years back about it and she basically said “boo-boo. Grow up.” She’s sick now in a hospital. I feel conflicted because she hasn’t had an easy life. But… kill my own mother? Even hurt her? Never would even occur to me. We just don’t talk much. I don’t hate her. I don’t know how I feel about her. A lot of resentment for sure. Idk. Maybe I do kinda hate her. But I also kinda love her and remember good memories we’ve had as well. Mostly I feel bad for her. All this to say, I can understand why some can grow up to seriously dislike their mom. But killing your own parent is an act of evil. And the way this girl went about doing it was beyond evil: she’s a sociopathic devil, and maybe her mother wasn’t innocent, but she didn’t deserve to die and her daughter deserved live imprisonment.
I hope she now can face real jail time!! Because she was never really given anything that resembled it. By her having a way to comunícate from jail and make videos it’s just horrible. Talking about murdering your mother like it was nothing. That woman has shown to have zero remorse and has no feeling for what she did. She is a psychopath and a cold blooded killer 🤮. I hope she is given a life sentence or she might be able to kill again. As the parents of her child I would be worried to have her walking around not knowing what she could do!!
Parents need to understand you can not be friends with you children as you are raising them..sometime not "protecting" them from their bad decisions is the best way to go... with the amount of money they had a conviction would not have hurt Heather quality of life. may have improved it since she was a minor and i am sure she would not have served any jail time.
She must have bribed the Indonesian judge. Wtf is 7 yrs jail with preveliges meeting her boyfriend, smoking drugs, dancing for murder?? Disgusting injustice
Exactly. And was legally trying to kill her daughter's 3rd unborn child. Hardly anybody is mentioning this. If I try to kill somebody's unborn child and they get me first NOBODY would have a problem with my death.
2:11 honestly, i wish i was rich enough to not notice a few thousands dollars charged to my credit card 😂 i must be too paranoid because i check my balance every dayv
I think everyone in this story sucks. Heather was disturbed. Not victim blaming but there’s more to the mom if she was left out of the will. Regardless she didn’t deserve to go out like that by the hands of her own daughter. Sad overall. Heather needed mental health support. Mother seemed cold to leave her husband and go on continuing her vacation not addressing her daughters grief. Heather was SPOILT. Never got punished. Just overall a sad case.
I really wish I can pull up the RU-vid video someone put in one of the comments under an older video about this case. It shows a drunk Sheila yelling at Heather in front of Heather's friends while they're in another country, calling her a whore and slut. The friends were standing there looking awkward and saying "Omg, okay we should leave". I now can't find the video ANYWHERE! Over the years on social media, Heather's friends she grew up with have defended her actions because they knew how her mom really was. Watching that video made me change perspectives but nevertheless killing someone isn't a good thing either
You can't leave the country if your husband died in it 😂 you crazy girl. There would be a huge investigation and only after they've determined it was acvidental, you would still have to stay and make arrangements to bring the body back. Like you think yo7 can just leave dead bodies in other countries and come back to good ol clean America?😂
Okay, so she found out 2 weeks before the vacation that her mom killed her dad, but she'd been planning the murder for months? And pretending that Tommy had nothing to do with it and just randomly agreed to help her kill her mom when he arrived in Bali?
They did not think this murder through at all smh🤦🏽♂️ Rest In Peace Shelia, who was a loving mother where all she wanted was what was best for her daughter
I agree that was so weird. But the mom didn't deserve any harm for that... her child needed therapy and help before this happened. The mom didn't deserve death
Everyone deals with death differently. That part was quickly glanced over in the video, but I'm sure there was more to it. Maybe it was hard for her to immediately go back home to a place where she will be constantly reminded of her husband, maybe she just wanted to drink the grief away. Being home during vacation with no work to do, just after a loved one died sounds like a terrible time. Judging by the daughter's personality, I doubt she was much of a help during those times either.
I wondered that too, but wasn't she really young? If then, I could understand her not wanting that to be her daughter's memory of her father's passing. I see how she would have used that time to distract her.
Part of me feels like Heather never had empathy to begin with. If Sheila made her continue with their trip so soon after he father passed, how did she not have time to "properly" mourn her father? What if Sheila was trying to cheer her up so she didn't slip into despair? But because of that she was physically abusive to Shiela on numerous occasions, without a shred of empathy. Even when Shiela tried and tried to reconnect with her daughter, she was murdered for it. Did Heather have empathy when she brutally beat her mom to death and chop up her body? Or was it when she ditched her remains in a suitcase in the trunk of a cab? She deserves life in jail, not life at a luxury resort.
Wth is wrong with Sheila?!?!?!!!! Vacation while husband is dead? How awful for young Heather. Her mom didnt deserve to die but well, she didnt give her daughter what she really needed-THERAPY!!!
