Can we all just agree that people who are sexually assaulting children don't need to be let out of jail, ever?? It should be a life sentence.
Definitely, sadly most of them never get convicted unless their black men
They should be castrated imo.
@@Kamarca I agree. I have always wished this happened. And possibly also cut off their dominant arm in addition to being castrated.
Yeah they may not take a life away as such but that’s something that you would have to life with
@@Kamarca I mean...as long as they're in jail too 😂 It's still quite possible to sexually assault someone without that body part.
That poor 11 year old boy lost his first girlfriend in such a tragic way. I know it’s been years but I hope he coped alright.
awh i didn't even think about that ): poor boy
The first girl my oldest son kissed, they were 11 and 12, was killed and he still thinks of that incident and he's 28 and married now. Yes, it stays with you. She was on her bike with four other friends. They crossed in front of a garbage truck, which was waiting at a stop sign for all the kids to pass in front. Unfortunately, he started going after only seeing FOUR bikes pass. Hers was the fifth and he hit her. It was just awful, awful...
A commented on a youtube video about her. He has children now, but he says he still thinks about her. :(
@@samanthamunoz6874 can you send the link?
@@annieandjordyn2438 no cause the channel where it was originally posted no longer exists
The mom left Lee home alone for the FIRST TIME EVER coincidentally the day her daughter ends up missing 40 minutes of getting to work? Yeah no that’s too much of a coincidence
That's what I was thinking...that some bad luck but I'm not sure I believe in luck (bad or good) or in coincidence.
Also weird how she mentioned the attacker tried cleaning, makes me think the mother came home and tried to get rid of the evidence by wiping the counter, realizing there was too much, washed her hands then called the police
Yeah but since it was someone she new then maybe they found out about her being home alone like if they new the mum they could of found out she was at work. But I do believe the mum is the most suspicious.
Agreed!!
yeh it was definitely the boyfriend
failing polygraph test three times? knowing that the glasses were missing so she can send them later? way too suspicious. she definitely killed her before she went to work
Lots of people fail when innocent and pass when later found out to be guilty. It's why they're often not allowed in court. Suspicious...sure. Definitely did it...can't say that.
@maddison land Of course she can say whatever she wants (even if it is changing definitions). For me, I can't say that.
maybe ‘definitely’ was a wrong word to use on my part, but there is definitely some ground to suspect that her mom had something to do with her dissappearance. also, neighbours reported her mom to be abusive to leigh, children also found bruises on her. her mom was also keeping the whole thing away from her dad. and what a coincidence, leigh dissappeares the first time she is ever left alone in the house. too many things add up. but again, it’s just my theory.
I kinda agree with this but wheres the body? who got rid of it? thats what i wanna know
@@WickedScorpio her work was close , and she basically went to work and left after just 40 minutes it could still be fresh
If the mom opened the door to a bloody scene, why did she spend 15 minutes looking around before calling police? It would take less than 30 seconds to check every room in a house that size.
Omg I would call the police immediately
@@emmalouise7884 Same! I’d probably be too scared to look around
@@matcha.clouds 👍
That's what threw me off as well! So sketchy
honestly knowing me it would take a while to call the police,, but not 15 minutes ,,
the mom definitely seems sketchy but also like why would she have any motivation to kill her daughter? I know some people are just pure evil but it makes no sense.
You answered your question love, some people are pure evil 😓 May Leigh rest in perfect peace 💕
Given that it's heavily implied her mother was abusive, she may have killed her daughter by accident. The police indicated Leigh had hit her head during the struggle. That would explain all the blood - head wounds bleed profusely. That's my theory - that Vicki accidentally killed Leigh in a fit of rage. Then she tried to cover it up.
Maybe she was jealous of her relationship with the dad? I'm not sure
because it doesn't make sense sadly :( everything exists in this world
@@AnaHallie that’s what i was thinking! maybe Leigh was up to something she shouldn’t have been doing when she was left at home alone, and then her mother caught her when she went to check up on her?
Leigh’s mother acted awfully suspicious. Not letting her daughters bf or her own ex husband know how serious it was initially. Seems most people would want all the help they could get.
Right
It's not weird at all that the mom didnt tell an 11 year old boy know details of her child's case. A lil kid that that an 11 yr old child thinks is her "bf" would be the *last* person I'd be thinking about if my kid was missing. & then later, not only would I think it would be inappropriate to give him scary details, I would think it was pointless. She wasnt 16. She was 11. She had t run off *with* him, so why would I be talking to him?🙄🤷♀️
@@evilangel2918 yea not telling the boyfriend I honestly get I don’t think I would either, but Leigh’s own father wasn’t even told properly. It’s not like they’d not seen each other for years, Leigh regularly spent time with him even when they lived really far apart. That’s suspicious.
She also failed the polygraph 3 times and was known to have a raging temper
@@evilangel2918 Leigh was 13
Why would they need a special ring if Vicki had never left Leigh alone before?
Good question
Wait a minute, that is strange😶
that’s what i was thinking ...
I immediately thought the same thing
Omg your smart!,
Yea the mom did it. So much points to her. Why would they have a special ring when she left her alone and never left her at home and the first time she leaves her home alone she disappears. The mom didn't even tell the dad what really was going on. Why the mom took 15 mins to call the police? She failed a polygraph 3 times. How the mom know exactly what was missing from her closet? Did they check the phone records of the mom and did they contact her work to see if she was at work at those times that was mentioned & also why that perv only served 4 years smfh
she probably killed Leigh before she left for work. She could've accidentally killed her, if she did abuse her. Then at work she called and when Leigh didn't answer, obviously because she's dead, her mom went home to report her daughter as missing. She thought she should probably clean up a little, then she calls the police.
@@MIAWOHLETZ yes bc why else would she take 15 minutes to call the police?
Yeah it's weird that the mom knew exactly what was missing from Leigh's closet - I ran away from home and took quite a few clothes and my mum was worried because she thought I didn't bring anything. She didn't even realise there were clothes missing in the first place, let alone which ones.
@@MIAWOHLETZIt’s possible that GUILT bought he back to the house and she became very irrational on what to do.
It’s also possible she did the murder, left for work, come back from guilt and open the door.
She drove away for the 2nd time MAYBE forgetting to close the garage door.
But also it was never said if the blood was completely dry or still remained wet once the police showed up.
I believe the mom is involved. She knew too many details, her stories were extremely detailed, took 15 mins to call the cops when she seen blood, and failed 3 lie detectors! I think Leigh may of had ADHD or something due to the tapping story. I think the mom murdered her out of anger. I wish they looked into her mom & talked to Leigh’s bf. Like what if Leigh told him some key evidence?
@@sadie2287 ALL HAIL JOON TIDDIES 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Detectives did a poor job with her case. Didn't look into the mom's story deeper, didn't close off the home as a crime scene for two weeks, didn't follow up on leads or properly question neighbors, theres a lack of evidence because they failed to secure any in the first place.
@@aqua_finessa6030 exactly!
Exactly!!! They talked everyday! I'm sure he knew something even if he didn't!
I agree, but we needed more info. Did the daughter describe her mother as abusive to her when she talked to her father over the phone?
If I walked into my bloody home after coming to check on my daughter because of her not answering the phone, it would NOT take me 15 minutes to call the police!!
Leah probably had adhd. It often goes undiagnosed in girls and can make other children avoid them. Poor little girl:(
Exactly. I have ADHD too and it's so difficult to get anything done without having my brain shifting focus every 4 seconds
I thought ASD or ADHD, my son has ASD and so do I, we share some expressions and we have individual ones. We mind-read and understand each other and that allows us to 'get' each other and not have to spend forever explaining ourselves. Males and females do show up differently and males tend to be diagnosed more. I met a lot of other kids with ASD or ADHD in support groups, homeschool groups etc.
This story is sad and I can't help but think of the mother being involved, I've been shocked at how many truly horrible mothers there are out there after watching some other True Crime vids. My goodness just watching the Gabriel Fernandez doc on Netflix was so disturbing and the mum's behaving pretty bloody suss I say!
The misidentified skull is such an awful thing....absolutely messed up of the police to have identified it as Leigh’s right away when it turned out to not be at all
This happened in the Humbolt bus crash! They mixed up two people, declaring one dead who was alive and one who was alive dead. Like you have one job and its kinda important.
I dunno, to fail all the polygraphs is a bit strange, and then it seems like we only have her mum's word that Leigh was alive and well when she left for work?
My thoughts exactly! That mum is suspicious 🤨
Sometimes they say mothers fail polygraphs because they feel as they though are responsible for their child’s disappearance as they didn’t protect them
@@rosejessep6840 I had never heard of this phenomenon before, that would also explain the failed tests!
@@amyfarrugia9783 neither had I until I was watching Real Detective on Netflix and one of the detectives said it’s often a reason why mums fail the test and I was like ohhhhh
and the missing sleeping bag is likely how she transported and got rid of the body :/ i would also think that the blood she attempted to clean up was her own and not lee’s
It was the mom. She got lucky by being investigated by what sounds like incompetent police.
Or her boyfriend?
@@plg0687 the boyfriend's 11 years old though...
@@Lena10345 oh I meant the moms boyfriend
Given that it's heavily implied her mother was abusive, she may have killed her daughter by accident. The police indicated Leigh had hit her head during the struggle. That would explain all the blood - head wounds bleed profusely. That's my theory - that Vicki accidentally killed Leigh in a fit of rage. Then she tried to cover it up.
@@plg0687 why do you think it's the boy friend? There's zero evidence pointing at him.
I agree, I really wish they had talked to her boyfriend!
Edit: He was obviously a child, so no full on interrogation. Like people in the comments and Bella have pointed out, it is likely that he could have remembered important information from their phone calls
If they were only 11 and 13 chances are the things they talked about were the day-to-day things. He would have known everything. I wonder if he was scared and never said anything on his own to the police or his parents because he knew what her mother was capable of? But why would she do that? Maybe she hit her but didn't mean to kill her. I hate people who abuse children
Me too it seemed like the first thing to do. Idk tho not a professional or anything
He was 11...
@@sarahbeackley4134 yeah he was 11, but they were also very close and spoke every day, I obviously don’t think he did anything but kids tell their friends secrets, so he might’ve known something without realizing he knew it
@olivia irene true but I find it so strange that everyone thinks because he was 11 he couldn’t have done anything? 2 10 year olds killed a 2 year old in the 90s. There are many cases of children killing... maybe an adult covered up for him? Anything is possible
Please cover the case of Wilma Andersson, she was a Swedish 17 year old girl who was murdered by her boyfriend in November of last year, it’s solved BUT they only found her head, in her boyfriend’s closet. The rest of the body has not been located yet.
Wtf
there's so many disturbing Swedish cases, they need some more recognition!
Omg wth
That ... is ... scary
@@FreeJujja yes they do, but they never get it. Its sad
My grade school friend went missing in 2009, her name was Lindsey Baum. The case is cold, we found her in 2018. If you could do a video and spread awareness for her would be amazing
Lindsey Baum was found? I thought the case was unsolved...............is she alright?
@@sheldoneasy8602 she was found dead in the woods. I think this must be another Lindsey Baum
Now why the F didn’t the mom tell the dad about his missing daughter and obvious crime scene!?!! 😡
The thing that makes me most suspicious of her mother is that she noticed a sleeping bag missing. That was either used to wrap her in to take her from the house, or to suggest she ran away. Also did anyone else see the open garage? or could that be a convenient piece of false evidence. Also her mum was probably informed of the sighting in Macdonalds, so f it was only 30mins away she could have posted the glasses.
there just seems to be the most things pointing to her mum
also just a note but she may have had adhd, fidgeting and being 'disruptive' can be a symptom
I do think that Leigh’s mother is either involved or at the very least, she clearly knows more than she has shared with anyone about Leigh’s disappearance.
Literally just thought ‘I need something to watch while I do my nails’ and then I got this notification
I always do my nails while listening to Bella!
I love doing my nails with her videos in the background 💘
I’m literally doing my nails 😂
i’m doing mine rn djsbdkebd
I’m literally doing mine rn 😂
Leigh lived just a few minutes from where I grew up. Most people believe her mother knows what happened to Leigh.
Finally, someone is talking about this case! Poor Leigh, her disappearance has always haunted me
There are tons of videos and Reddit posts on this case.
I went to church with her. She was a few years older than me, but always made a point to give me a hug whenever she was at church. Such a warm soul. Very good video.
Exactly she was sweet..
Sundays are for solving mysteries!
Why do I see you commenting on all of my fav true crime you tubers 😂😂
@@hannahstolzer2085 a lot of time on my hands to watch a lot of true crime 😎
Lol I see you everywhere again
Honestly, it sounds like the mom attacked Leigh in Leigh’s room and killed her in the middle of the night. Realized what she had done and dragged her down the stairs and put her in a bag of some sort, hence the blood pool, and blood in the stair way. She then tried to cover her tracks and goes into her master bathroom to clean up. Hence the blood in the sink. It’s early in the morning and she goes and dumps her body.
She then goes back to her home and concocts a story that made it sound like she was a loving mother. “I let her sleep in my bed” “ I knew everything in her closet” “ This was the first time I ever left her alone, so we made up a secret call”
All I’m saying was it was all to suspicious. Especially, now that in recent years that they have uncovered that back in the 70’s and 80’s they had a version of give your kids to someone on the internet, and writing groups on ideas to get rid of your kids.
Such a dark part of the world.... BUT your video was great, can’t wait till the next one.
What?!! Get rid of your kid through the internet. I hadn’t heard of this
but then how would the blood be fresh when the police came? wouldn't it have dried if she had died in the middle of the night?
@@JadedForAlways yeah, police have found online forums and chat groups, that disguised giving parenting advise, and offering child care as giving children away, or giving them to others to kill( or do worst to) I just watched a documentary on it and it creeped me out.
@@samanthasmith837 what’s the documentary? I’m intrigued
@@MarcianMarshmallows ^ commenting to get the notif i wanna watch it too
IM OBSESSED with this case. I’m from Tupelo, Mississippi and I’ve done SO. MUCH. research on this. I fully believe it was the mom. I’ve heard rumors that she buried her under the high school OR under the Walmart by their house (they were both under construction at the time).
I’m from Tupelo, MS and grew up with the rumors of Leigh. The biggest rumor was that she was thrown into a building site. The Walmart in town was being built at that time as well as a new building at the high school. We’d all love to know what actually happened!
Me to I was in the 8th grade at lawhon when that happened 😥😥
Right..I was one of her friends..
i’m sorry, the mom is too suspicious to not be involved
I feel the mom knows something. This just happened on the first day she ever left her home alone? Sounds like she went to work for an alibi and probably mailed the glasses. Plus failing 3 polygraph tests
I live 30 minutes from Tupelo, MS. This case is still widely talked about and when I was younger I begged mom to stay home and she always said no. I never understood her reasoning, when I was 12 she told me this story and it terrified me. But I’m from Pontotoc and people still talk about her to this day
Her mother and her stepfather had something to do with it 100%! Poor Leigh ! I feel so sorry for this child that she had to endure all those things. I hope she’s in a better place now 🙏
I think it was the neighbor that owned horses. Leigh knew him, so she probably would've opened the door for him. And he had a history of kidnappings so he definitely couldve been capable of murder. Plus he kidnapped the other girl in the morning when she was home alone which was the same position Leigh was in.
would there be any way to prove the light was on before vickie got home? because if she’s guilty, or even knows something, she could have claimed the light was on to push blame away from her
Only a witness or video evidence would really be the only way to prove it. But since so much time as has passed I bet there wouldn’t be a reliable witness and if DNA testing wasn’t great, I’m also betting video evidence doesn’t exist in this case.
@@tiffanie_3789 yeah but maybe cause there’s a timer it could have held memory... but yeah too much time has passed. god i hope she’s okay
@@emilyanne8019 that’s a good idea! I hope she is happy wherever she may be
Seemed like an obvious way to deflect attention away from herself. I think there's more than one person involved.
@@diablocell 100% agree but i don’t think her biological dad is involved
Hope everyone is having a good day/night ❤️
Thank you! U too ❤️
Thanks !! Wishing the same 🌎
Back at you!
As someone who has lived closed to Tupelo my whole life, and was living a block away from Leigh at time of her disappearance, this is a case that has always had my attention. The theories around town are still vast.
You should do the disappearance of Karlie Guse! It's a California girl who disappeared last year and could potentially still be solved. It's suuuuch an odd case and really intriguing.
I agree, it’s so strange, but a lot of youtubers already covered that story
That case still bothers me so much .. I think about it ALOT .. I hope it gets solved it’s so weird case and sad
This case really bothers me too :(
It's very strange. I'm convinced she had to be on more than just weed... maybe it was laced with something.
I was always told that she was buried under my old high school. I also know a girl who was convinced she saw Leigh in a window waving at her when she took a break during cheer practice one night!
can you provide more insights? there was always this theory that she was murdered and disposed off at a construction site
Hmm
@@viz-d-world7475 Yes! The construction sight her body was supposedly dumped at was the current Tupelo high school. Which is why people who go to school there think it’s haunted
I read somewhere that most kids who are killed are killed by one or both of their parents . So it’s a very good chance Vickie had something or everything to do with what happened to her daughter . It’s scary to think that the person or persons you should be able to trust most can end up being the one or ones you can least trust 🥺
Could have been the mother and Barney. That would account for the witness’s sighting of the sketchy man as well as explaining how the mother could have been involved despite being at work. The fact that she took 15min to call the police is sus.
How tragic this poor girl has gotten no justice
I'm a Tupelo native and everyone believes that the mom did it. Tons of people still talk about the case and believe that Vicky was involved. I lived 10 minutes from the house for quite a while. Just driving by the house gives me the chills.
Growing up in Tupelo we were always told her mom buried her under the new high school during its construction. Students claimed to see her in the J Building window at night.
Aaahhhhhhh
What do you mean they saw who in the window in the J building ? Like her spirit waving at them?
@@mariesha5915 Yes, rumor was she was standing in the window of the building.
The mom seems sketchy. Who just leaves the door locked knowing their daughter is coming home, and not even alert any other neighbors to keep an eye on her or arrange a babysitter?? We were latchkey kids growing up and my mom would at least have a family member pick us up or leave the key under the mat or something
I also found it weird she was 12/13 and didn’t have a key to her own house? I was trusted with a house key in my book bag in like 1st grade just in case a family member or friend had to get me I’d always have a way in...
@@tiffanie_3789 exactly!
@@tiffanie_3789 i was thinking the same thing why didnt she have a key
Yet she claimed to be so NERVOUS to leave her home alone. BS!!!
@@CrazyMuffin997 my child doesn’t have a key and usually waits for me to arrive....
Does anyone have any ideas as to why Vicki would kill her daughter? She is definitely suspicious.
I reckon the step father was molesting her and the mum knew and when Leigh learned this she said she was going to tell her dad and then she killed her to shut her up!
Given that it's heavily implied her mother was abusive, she may have killed her daughter by accident. The police indicated Leigh had hit her head during the struggle. That would explain all the blood - head wounds bleed profusely. That's my theory - that Vicki accidentally killed Leigh in a fit of rage. Then she tried to cover it up.
the fact that her sleeping bag was missing too...
The mum had just recently split up with the step dad. Maybe he made it clear he didn’t want to deal with a child. So she was desperate to get him back and thought that if her daughter was gone then the problem would be solved.
Oh my goodness! I’ve lived in Tupelo, MS my whole life and seeing you make a video on this case made my day! Everyone here knows as much about the case as possible and most people (that I know anyway) believe that her mother killed her. Personally, I don’t want to assume her mother killed her, but it does seem pretty likely. Love you Bella! Thanks for the video.
When she said Tupelo I was like whattt... I live in Pontotoc. I’ve never heard about this case.
I’m the only person who didn’t know about the case i guess 😭 It sounds like the mom was part of it because she is just so sketchy
Rest in peace Leigh
I always assumed the mom had some kind of breakdown and hurt her in a spur of the moment and tried to cover it up. Such a sad story
this is a bit random but i just wanna say YOURE SO PRETTY!!!
I WAS THINKING THIS TOO HAHA
It’s midnight and I know if I watch this im not gonna sleep but i want to watch it so badly aaaaaah 😭😭
It's 10 pm here
it’s 4 pm for me
2pm for me
5:34pm for me
It's 21:35pm here in England
This is one of my top 5 missing person cases that keeps me up at night! So many podcast that have been dedicated to just her (like the whole podcast not just one episode) have been removed... super sus! Glad you covered it.
I always have to comment on your hair because it’s just so gorgeous and that color is so nice Bella!
The mom said she was nervous about leaving the daughter home alone but wasn't bothered with her wondering the neighborhood alone the day she wasn't home to let her in the house after school. Yeah, the Mum is sus... All trails keep leading back to her.
Edit: I just read that Leigh had only been home for less than an hour before her mom decided to drive back home from work to check on her. How could a person have done something so brutal in less than an hours time and have time to escape unseen. She was also waiting to be picked up by her grandmother so why if she didn't answer her mom's calls did the mother assume the worst rather than oh let me call her grandmother and see if she came early.
she is known as crazy earring lady to my mom , and I love it
(also I love all of her earrings , they are so cute and cool)
Maybe they didn’t talk to Jordan because he’s underage and his parents didn’t give consent
If she had never been left home alone before, why did they have a "special ring"?
I mean I guess they would have to have the ring before they need to use it, or else it would kind of defeat the point 🤷
U have to make it so u can use it🤷🏼♂️ they prolly did it the day before she would be left alone
What's the point of the special ring if her boyfriend phoned her everyday after school.
@@aqua_finessa6030 If I were a mum, I'd still want to be able to keep in contact with my daughter and have a way to make sure my daughter picks up my calls regardless of her boyfriend. also, if she's not comfortable answering "normal" phone rings, she might not have answered her boyfriend's call this time, anyway.
i live in hattiesburg, mississippi... so hearing you say hattiesburg gave me the boost of serotonin i needed
Thank you for covering Leigh’s case. So little coverage has ever been done on her. This case will always haunt us here in Tupelo. It could’ve been solved, it should’ve been solved. If they can uncover an ET Atari game in a landfill (there is a documentary on this on YT) they can look for Leigh in the landfill that we think Leigh’s body was taken to. I grew up 2 streets over from Honey Locust and I remember this day happening very vividly. I was just 4 years old at the time. I hope one day this case is closed and laid to rest because Leigh became “Tupelo’s Child.” Her mom left and didn’t want to be questioned. Like she just packed up and said 🤷🏼♀️ and moved STATES off. I’m sorry, but if my child was missing there would be a force behind me and I would never stop until I found them.
It definitely seems like leah's mother had something to do with it...it's definitely odd thats the killer would send evidence back to the victims family.
your background is so calming!! thank you for these mystery mondays
I love Vessi! My girlfriend lives in the Philippines and it rains a lot so I got her a pair. She loves them!
Maybe Vicky had been physically abusing Leigh that morning (all the blood) and Leigh changed before Vicky left (knew the outfit). Then maybe something else happened such as a runaway or a quick abduction (if she went outside to calm down). Perhaps Vicky tried to call so soon because she "felt bad" and wanted to check in. When she got back home she knew the blood was from her so wasn't surprised enough to call the police asap. She could've eventually failed the polygraph tests because she had some guilt in her abuse but didn't want to shift the spotlight to herself as a suspect by admitting so.
Not a perfect theory but just some of my thoughts.
this can be a possibility, definately
Your voice is so soothing. I love watching your videos. You do the stories justice and I appreciate the way you tell them. Looking forward to the next one already.
I can’t believe you did this case from my little home town!!! I have done so much research on this.
Damn it sounds like the last guy either did it or wishes he did. Idk why he'd be sophisticated enough to get away with this one and not the other two though. Idk about her parents either I feel like the parents always get blamed in these cases but its not always them
YES THESE ARE MY THOUGHTS TOO like the guy really sounds like he could be really good for it but then her mom is also very sketch but then again they always blame the parents first🤦🏾♀️ so upsetting that we’ll probably never know
murders, rapes, and kidnappings are done by someone the victim knows well the overwhelming majority of the time (like over 90%) so it only makes sense to suspect them before a relative stranger. the last guy definitely is a possibility but statistically just much less likely.
@@DearSparklesTV
He knew her, she knew him, the mom told he'd be a guy the girl would answer the door for, so he knows her well enough
@@lacepetal
I feel like it's him too, him or the mom, but I'm leaning towards him, the mom seems protective of her with all those "rules" and how she has taugh her, and I don't see a motive.
The guy was sus and maybe it was like rape or something gone wrong so he ended up killing her, he propably knew she was alone and if what the mom said was true, that she'd open the door for him, then he had an easy access (wich he didn't even neccesary need) he didn't wanna talk or tell anything, nothing at all.
I am SO happy!! I have asked you to cover this case FOREVER!!
So happy! I was in dire need of something good to watch tonight while I journal/do some light reading 🥰
The attempt to clean up and the bloody clothes in the hamper are why I suspect the mom... It's almost like she wanted to get rid of evidence and then realized that it would be too difficult and time consuming. That would explain why it took her so long to call the police. And who else would go to the trouble of putting the clothes in the hamper??
The amount of time it would take to talk your way in, murder someone, attempt to clean up, remove the victims clothing, gather clothing from the victims closet, stuff the body in a bag, & drag it out of the house and load it up all in under an hour is impeccable timing. My guess is she was killed before her mother went to work BY her mother. Reason why the blood was still fresh.
bella you look so beautiful!!! you never miss with the earrings🥰🥰
As someone who lives tupelo, this case is very well known and knowing that it is still brought up to this day is great- my dad has met the mom before and even he believes she had at least something to do with it- anyone here that has lived here for a while knows about the case-
i live near tupelo ms and it’s crazy that no one even talks about this case! my mom was either a year ahead or behind her in school, i can’t remember. i have always heard hearsay that she’s under the mall, or the high school in tupelo. i think about her all the time, it’s so sad.
I literally cant take my eyes off your earrings, i just keep thinking if I wore those... my son would rip my dam ear off 😂😂
highlight of my week🥺
I absolutely Stan your whole look 😍 So gorgeous! ✨
I got about a 40 minute drive to my personal trainer and I love hearing your videos on the way❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the upload, Bella 😊 ♥
Hot wheels as earrings????bella you outdid yourself
I'm so happy that you uploaded! Now ready to watch.
those earrings are adorable!
FINALLY!! I have an excuse to do nothing and just watch you😂❤️
You're hair looks so amazing
So, my family lives in the outer Brisbane area, and we spent a few months there when I was a kiddo. You’re so precious and you remind me so much of my cousin. They have avocado plantations/green houses. My cousin actually ran with the Olympic torch! Anyways, I just love your content, thank you so much for bringing recognition to these cases!
I love how to talk as if you actually know these people, it really pulls you in and makes them so interesting. ❤️
It truly does baffle me in cases such as this how a person can vanish with little to no solid leads/suspects etc. I pray Leigh is found alive one day and reunited. Let's keep the Hope's up. Such a sad case, great video Bella ♥️
This happened where I live. I actually drive past that house quite often. Rumor has it she’s buried under the high school 🤦🏽♀️
please do not stop making true crime/unsolved cases videos :) always the highlight of my day
I’m from Tupelo, MS! So cool to see you cover this.
i think it’s the last guy, or leigh’s mother.
I personally don’t think it’s the guy because he kidnapped the 15 yr old girl but only raped her and didn’t kill her I just think the guy wishes he did but didn’t actually like a fetish 🤷🏽♀️
@@eileen.1354 i totally see where you’re coming from
He could have chose to kill Leigh because he let the first girl go and she told on him he may have decided to silence this victim so she wouldn’t do the same. Jacob wetterling’s killer let all his other victims go that he assaulted except Jacob, so it’s not uncommon.
@@eileen.1354 yeah, but he got caught cause he let the girl live, so maybe he didn't do the same mistake again?
Does anyone else think that Leigh holds an astonishing resemblance to Lily Rabe from American Horror Story.. they were also born around the same time!
You look amazing!! And those earrings!? Yaas
I listen to your videos while i work. love them
In my opinion, the reason the mom came across as if she had guilt heavy on her conscience is, understandably in my opinion, that she truly was/does feel like it's her fault and she feels so guilty for leaving Lee home alone for the first time and knowing jus the level of anxiety Lee was having having to be there alone and that can easily explain why she left work so early because she felt heartbroken thinking about her daughter at home and in absolute terror and she also was worried that she would get stuck at work because the weather and she new it was getting worse and she understood it was getting worse very quickly. As for her knowing what lee was wearing, again in my opinion, is that it could be a good possibility that she would have Lee plan her outfit the night before because as she had been in the military it is crucial for perfect organization and routine and everything to be done in perfection. My dad was Vietnam vet and till the day he physically could not even so much as eat orally, talk, and move his body on his own, would do as was done in his career as a marine. the polly test results can be due to, as I theorized previously, that she truly believed it to be her fault. I also think that the reason she down played the situation of Lee being missing is because she was feeling an enormous amount of shame and beating herself up and she cared about what he would feel if he also would think that it's her fault and she should be ashamed for leaving her alone knowing how scared she was and in that kind of weather conditions. She just felt like if he was told the whole thing that she would in a sense get validation of what she was already feeling about herself even tho its not her fault cuz she couldn't have predicted something like this would even be a worse case scenario let alone something like this would happen to her daughter. I dont doubt that she probably was strict due to her time in the military but abuse I feel that those were looked at a little too much and only seemed serious once this horrific incident occurred. Majority of step parents are hateful to the kids. Step parent ate hateful more than a step parent not. But I could be wrong. I feel like as hard as the negative possibilities are looked hard at and discussed, the positive reasonings should be part of the possibilities as well because so many times I've noticed that the solo negative views have put honestly innocent people in prison for most their lives or even their the rest their lives.
literally just finished my exam and got the notification for this, love life
i love your hair so much! 70s vibes! 😍
your hair is sooo gorgeous
I live about 30 minutes from where this happened. I was only a year and half when everything happened. Everybody around hear has a theory about what happened. I’m so happy youtubers like you are covering the case because I feel like it hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves.
I feel like the predator that befriended her knowing she liked horses sounds like a prime suspect, in comparison to the mother. The mother sounds like somebody who can be a bit paranoid and that buckles under a lot of pressure. The fact that they have a special ring, that she let her sleep in bed with her, and the fact that she raced home so quickly could be a mother's intuition but also guilt. This was the first time she left her daughter alone so paranoia and mother's-guilt would have been at an all time high that day. As for the ex-boyfriend, could even be that she broke up with him due to his treatment of her daughter. If she is someone who is very panicked and paranoid, it could explain the polygraph and the state of denial when telling her daughter's father. Her daughter was in her care and she was perhaps afraid that he would blame her. The lack of motive is what gets me with her. The pedophile that re-offended and knew her shortly after her disappearance just seems more likely.
Thank you for being respectful. Thank you for not making disgusting jokes like some of the other CZcams channels. Narcissists. Thanks for being respectful and thoughtful. I usually don't make comments and comment sections at least this type of video, but I saw this on another CZcams channel first and did a search, the case really shook me up. I hope that she's somewhere alive right now. But it doesn't look good and I agree with your thoughts. I hope whoever did this gets what they deserve
Vessi’s are Vancouver based that’s where I’m from!! It’s so nice to see everyone catching on!
