Him asking Maria if she thinks he hurt Jessica when Maria never even insinuated that idea is very telling...

"It's all about you." - a favorite phrase of a malignant narcissist

Maria's reply to justin is so strong. Everyone needs a friend like Maria

Isn't it weird that Justin claimed to have friends in the police department and then the police department completely f*cks up dealing with their evidence... 🤔

Called and signed! The DA is about to get a shit ton of phone calls from us. As he should. The investigation into this case is disgusting!

I called the DA (from Germany) and she said, she would add my call to "the list" so I asked about the list and she said, she had taken at least 500 calls within the last 24 hours. I love you guys!!! Also I'm praying for Jessica and her family and friends. May they get justice and may Jessica rest in peace 🙏

Jessica was a friend and former coworker of mine. Thank you, everyone, for bringing her case back to the forefront. Jessica was caring, incredibly bright, and had the most hilarious sense of humor. She deserves justice and her family deserves peace and closure.

It’s so obvious her husband killed her or had her killed. Don’t understand how police could neglect a case like this.

i’m so enraged like i don’t even have words. i’m just so thankful kendall covered this to really get the word out

Everyone needs a friend like Maria. She did everything she could do for Jessica and has been incredibly strong. Hopefully someday she gets justice for Jessica.

THE ID IS WHAT STUCK OUT TO ME?!! The fact that he specifically mentioned it but then it was later found in a blanket thrown out with some other things....he did it.

Watching this to familiarize myself with the case so I'll be prepared for the upcoming documentary _530 Days_ being released 12/19/2023 by Ms. Kendall! 🥰

When Maria clapped back at Justin.... my favorite part! Such a good friend! If you don’t have a best friend like her, get one because you need her.

WAIT, so a couple finds her ID in a blanket?! Didn’t he tell her friend the day she went missing that she left behind her ID, keys, wallet, etc?!? This case is infuriating! He needs to be investigated!!! Give Jessica her day & peace!!! 🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️

Him sharing those adult videos of them following her death is the most disgusting thing I’ve ever heard. He can rot forever.

It is incredibly disturbing to me that Jessica’s family found her body. I cannot imagine the horror and trauma from that. My heart goes out to them. ♥️

This case is so disgusting.The police let Jessica and her family down...and continue to do so! The husband definitely killed her. I can’t even imagine that her poor family found her body.

Just imagine how many women and girls would still be alive today if they hadn't met this type of men... it's so sad.

Maybe he wasn’t lying when he said he has friends in high places... seems like someone is protecting him...

Whenever someone says "so and so is a real friend, everyone needs a friend like that" I think, we should be saying everyone should BE a friend like that. Be a good friend.

How is Justin not a suspect?! There was so MANY red flags and he wasn't considered a suspect?! very frustrating indeed

Every time Kendall says, ‘she met this guy’ ☹️

I LOVE how straight up her friend was him. She gave and took ZERO bullshit.

The fact he said 'you think I hurt her or something' is a huge red flag for me. His texts are so gaslighting and narcissistic. This justice system is just disgusting. This man clearly did it and I'm only half way through the video.

Can this case be brought to the FBI or another police department??? There’s no way there’s not corruption going on. I would not be surprised since hearing that Justin has friends in the police department. I’m so angry hearing all of this. It’s clear that Justin is responsible from how he treats Jessica even after death.

Chris Watts also texted "I don't want you to think I'm a bad person Cassie" to one of Shanann's friends after his family went "missing"

Everyone needs a friend like Maria. Even when she says, “I know she doesn’t have many friends left.” That means when everyone else got tired of her and her scary situation, Maria stuck with her. She did everything she could. ❤️

This literally makes me shake, I feel so fortunate to have gotten out of the situation I was in. Coincidentally, my ex's name is also Justin...so this was kind of like listening to someone recount what happened in our relationship at times. Especially while Jessica's sister was describing how the abuse evolved. To anyone in an abusive relationship, female or male, it will only get worse. It gets so much worse. It starts slow, and you feel like maybe its your fault, maybe they'll change, you save face constantly and pretend that your partner is SO great to everyone else--and they fake being great in front of the people they want to convince. But when you get home, the real them comes out and even if it's "just" verbal or emotional abuse now...I've gone through this more than once. They WILL get physical. I had a baby with my ex, I was desperate to make our situation work...one night it took eight police to help get me away from him. I am certain he would eventually kill me. Looking back now, I can see that he was grooming our...no, MY son. He's a despicable excuse for a human being and he will never see my son AGAIN. This kind of person is dangerous, and your life is at risk. You might think I'm being alarmist, but I promise you...I'm speaking from experience. Please protect yourself and your children, if you have any. Do NOT talk about leaving, do NOT discuss your plan with them or with someone else within earshot of your ABUSER. Make a plan with a loved one, a shelter, a therapist and keep it between ONLY the parties involved in that plan. Do NOT pack a bag ahead of time and try to hide it, just make a mental list of what you'll need to pack. And the FIRST CHANCE you have, when your abuser is at work, school, or out running errands...that's when you leave. Grab your shit, STUFF is replaceable, you are not, so don't stress if you have to run with only the clothing on your back. My son and I left with nothing but what we were wearing and his diaper bag. It will all work out. And please make sure that you go to your local clerk of courts AS SOON AS POSSIBLE and apply for an order of protection. Do NOT advertise where you are on social media, with mutual friends, with anyone except those you trust with your life. Hang tight and get help, seek therapy...this kind of shit can be SO traumatic. There are people who want to help you, who are trained to help you, and who can help you turn your life around. You are not replaceable. No man or woman is worth your mental health, your blood, your life... Get out when you can, and trust that you are an incredible person who is worth SO MUCH MORE than what you've been through. You are loved.

I'm scared for his daughter, she needs to be looked after too

“We shouldn’t have to fight the Justice System to get justice for our loved ones” wow. So well put

I LOVE HER FRIEND omg. I wish all friends and family were as diligent as her.

Wow! Justin wasn't lying when he said he had "connections". Feels like a cover up! Absolutely horrifying.

I thought that Justin was just trying to scare Jessica by saying he had friends who were police, but this gross negligence makes it seem like he does actually have friends on it. Either that, or these cops truly do not care at all

That narcissist!!! Talkin about oh “grace this” “grace that” like he cares so much for his daughters well being YET HE IS THE ONE WHO KILLED JESSICA, and caused grace all this pain

Here for a rewatch before the documentary comes out. Anyone else? Like my comment if so.

It’s so obvious that the husband did it, and the fact that he gets her body to “lay her to rest” is the worst thing I can imagine on top of what he has already done to her and her family... rest in paradise Jessica.

How domestic violence and assault charges aren’t pertinent to Jessica’s death, I’ll never understand. Sounds like escalation to me.

This is a GROSS example of police and investigator incompetence!!!!! Very heartbreaking after the fact she was MURDERED by her abusive spouse. I pray family members keep strength and fight fight fight! RIP Jessica, friends family & caring strangers have your back girl❤ justice for Jessica

I am shocked that the family hasn’t sued the NOLA PD at this point.

The most dangerous time for a domestic violence victim is when they try to leave statistically. It’s very understandable why Jessica was so scared. I hope this case comes to light. ❤️ Justice for Jessica.

Those texts from Justin are extremely manipulative. I found myself believing what he was saying but saw the signs as I know. He is definitely involved. We need to blow this up and put public pressure on these cops. Everybody call!!!!

This is so sad! Clearly this man told the cops "she's crazy, she's on meds, she ran away and killed herself" and they just believed him with zero investigation!!!! Wth!!!!

They need to interview her stepdaughter, she could have seen or heard something. This case just makes me so sad. So many women end up missing or dead because of domestic violence 😔

As an advocate for an intimate partner violence DV/SV organization, you’re doing SO much for the victims and survivors. Our organization is small and we rely solely on donations and grants, but we do what we can. Thank you for raising awareness about intimate partner violence. 💜

I’m here to watch this again in preparation for your documentary!!

Excuse me, her body was in the morgue for over a Y E A R? This investigation is so botched.. her poor family and friends. Thank you for bringing our attention to this horrible situation 😭

"She wanted to save face more than she wanted to save herself." This hits so hard so close to home.

this was incredibly unsettling and so mishandled by the police department. justin is a foul and disgusting human. selling her stuff and PERSONAL images, just to make some extra money off his deceased wife and he is not a suspect?! WHAT. i can’t believe this case. Jessica and her family deserve justice. my heart breaks for them.

This really hits close to home… I lost my mom to a man who physically abused my mom and me as well and the police department just tried to get it over and quick and ruled it as a suicide. This man is just walking free and I have even ran into him at the store before and just… my world was shattered by this man and my mom was failed. Thank you for caring for these families enough to share their stories

As a South African, I'm used to seeing cases like this however it's truly frightening to see that it happens in 'first world country'. So women are really unprotected no matter where they are

The fact that her family was able to find her body that quickly after a WEEK of her disappearance just proves that the police work was horrible. Edit: the more I watch this, the more infuriated I get, this poor family. The police are so useless in this case.

"We shouldn't have to fight the justice system to get justice for our loved ones" 👏👏👏 that statement. This police department just became an international embarrassment. They have a murderer walking their streets and they could not care less.

Abused woman never get justice and it’s because the abuser paints them as “crazy” or unstable. It’s truly sad that our justice system doesn’t even recognize these things especially when so many women deal with this everyday.

Why have I not heard of this case? This is terrible and I feel the deepest sympathy for Jessica and her family and friends.

Hearing that her family found her gave me chills. The police clearly did nothing. This is horrible.

Maria is a GREAT friend. Shout out to her for knowing what was up immediately and using her voice to find Jessica

God when she describes how she went from a girl who didn't take any shit to a weak scared girl. It sounds just like me. Narcissistic partners are the worst form of mental abuse

The fact that her family is STILL fighting for justice. Thank you for helping and supporting this family in finding answers. I just came from your recent documentary. Your work and growth is amazing.

I called to leave a message and they immediately told me there was a high call volume and they hung up. Glad to know they are constantly hearing her name. Justice for Jessica!!!

Just signed the petition and called Mr. Williams' office. Thank you for everything you do, Kendall. You really make a difference for victims and their families.

I am so disgusted by the inaction of the police. Jessica was treated like trash. Abandoned in the morgue like she meant nothing. This beautiful woman deserved so much better. I feel so bad for her family. I hope she gets justice. I have signed the petition and I hope it helps!

I just signed the petition and I am wishing Jessica's family the absolute best. Her life mattered! Thank you for this amazing channel Ms. Rae! You are doing phenomenal work!

The fact that he shared videos of her after she died just boils my blood

I made the call and didn’t get past Jessica’s name before the woman said “I’ll add your name to the list thank you” and hung up

Rewatching this video before the documentary airs! Great work as always from you and the entire team!

At first I was like yo this dude is obviously sketchy but then he SOLD her adult content after she was dead?? Huh??? This is a whole new level of evil 🤯🤯

Signed, emailed and left a voicemail all the way from Melbourne, Australia. Despite the fact that DA Williams has met with the family, I wanted to keep the ball rolling just in case. Justice for Jessica, and peace for her family.

Rewatching this in preparation for the documentary you’re releasing. This case makes me so frustrated. The fact her family found her body and so close to her home is unbelievable. I’m so disappointed in the law enforcement’s involvement in this

THIS CASE HITS ME SO HARD. My sister was in something very similar. Had two kids with him. Every time she called me scared OR over compensated how amazing he was I drove from Colorado to Kansas and made him hit me and got him arrested. Dragged her home to Colorado. Years later they finally separated. Not without him almost killing her. And she's happily married now. But it could have gone this way. I'm so SO incredibly sorry. And will actively support you all on this. Love and light friends.

Can you do Sanniya Davis? She went missing almost 2 weeks ago , she was last seen on her college campus Buffalo State in upstate New York. Today the police determined it was a suicide yet no one believes that.

"do you think I hurt her or something?" as soon as I saw he said that, a chill went down my spine. this is probably up in my top 5 of infuriatingly shi**y police work. it's clear Justin has ties to the police department, and they're covering for him. I absolutely hate that corrupt police officers/departments exist - it's disgusting to me.

The way the authorities don’t give a crap about women, truly pisses me off and makes me wish the WORST for these people. Jessica deserves justice. This is so upsetting.

HUGE UPDATE: Thanks to you and to Jessica’s family the district attorney has decided to re-examine the body!!

Watching this in prep for the doc drop. You guys are incredible for your work. You are the one channel that I think really makes a difference in the true crime community. May justice always be served for all victims.

If someone ever describes you as lighting up the room when you come in, 100% you're getting murdered

It's disgusting to me the lack of effort the police put into this case. If that was my daughter....I'd be so mad like her family is. What that "man" did after she passed. It just really breaks my heart how that must hurt her family to know her memory so thoroughly being disrespected. How no love or care he showed

When someone is finally ready to leave a domestic abuse situation, please never tell them to wait. If you cannot get to them, send someone who can. (If you read this, don't get angry at Jessica's friend. She did everything she knew to do!!)

As a blind true crime lover i just wanted to say thank you for reading out the messages and reports. you are one of the only true crime you tubers that does this and it is very much appreciated ❤️❤️

Kendall, you should cover Mikayla miller’s case. It happened in HOPKINTON MA , a girl was found tied to a tree beaten April 17 and its been covered up so much and a statement was just released the other day. Investigators said her death wasn’t suspicious!

People who have never been in that kind of unhealthy relationship will never understand how hard it is to leave. 😕

This has to be one of the worst jobs by the police I have heard of so far. It's so sad that Jessica couldn't even receive the bare minimum in finding what happened to her. Sending her and her family peace.

There’s no way the police handled Jessica’s case so poorly on accident. I really hope they get the justice they deserve on behalf of Jessica and can get some peace. It sounds like Jessica was an incredible person and I can’t imagine the loss.

My question is why did her family find her body and nobody else did before? No resident, neighbor, etc. caught the smell? Has nobody been to that park that entire week? 🤨 That’s so weird.

Her friend is an angel. I love her for calling his ass out!!!! Queen.

I love how you allow the victims families to speak for themselves in your videos. It's an extra layer of respect that I don't see from a lot of other true crime youtubers.

Replay crew happy i stumbled up this ... Ive left my story and signed the petition and shared it .... 💜💜💜 Mich love and prayers to you all and my deepest condolences

I love that Kendall adds little details. Like that she loves the color purple.. it really makes you feel so connected with her and makes her more personable

I think Justin had some sort of "connection" in the police department. There's no other plausible explanation for how they ignored, lost, covered-up, the evidence.

I can’t even comprehend how shitty the police and detectives handled this case. The fact that neighbors found more evidence than the police just proves how unreliable they have been to Jessica’s family.... I pray that her family is going to get the justice that they and Jessica deserve!

I am re-watching because of your docu posted yesterday. I can recommend it to everyone to what this before you watch the docu. Thanx for all the good work you and your team do ♥️ Greetz from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

I've watched a LOT of true crime videos. I'm possibly obsessed with them. However, THIS ONE, has my blood boiling. I'm a resident of MS but NOLA is the city that my heart belongs to. I am absolutely disgusted at the gross negligence of the officers in this case. My heart is broken for this family.

my first thought is that justin had a connection with the police dept. the system is so messed up and there are coverups, major mistakes, unsuspecting connections, along with so many other things. really hoping jessica and her family gets justice one day.

This man did everything he could to look at guilty as possible and he’s still not even a suspect? His behaviour is outright vile, I cannot imagine what Jessica’s family are going through

I watched this 2 years ago but rewatched again before the doc comes out on my Birthday. I am hoping so much that Jessica's family gets justice. This whole thing is crazy and screams police cover up.

530 days leaving that poor girl in the morgue omg the family should easily have a lawsuit against that police department and city

Not only did Jessica's loved ones FIND her decaying body, but the police are handling her case BEYOND poorly. This has to have been such a traumatizing experience. Also the fact that her husband wasn't looked into AT ALL??? Jessica seemed to be one of the kindest souls to exist, she will be missed. Sending love to her family and friends

This family and friend has been through so much but yet never quit advocating for Jessica. My prayers are they get the justice Jessica deserves and some sense of peace although I know the hurt will always be there. Rip, Jessica 🌹

Whenever I hear Kendall say "this is a crazy story" I just feel another video and story where the police and investigators f**ked up AGAIN!
