I was a avid runner as well. Stuck to my schedule and route. One morning on my run a cop stopped me and said, I see you running every day same time same route, if I see you doing this so do other people. He suggested run at different times and change up my route. I totally took his suggestion and I’m thankful he took the time to stop me.
This is so true. You never know who is watching 😞 everyone be careful out there!
@ Ellie, You’re welcome. Stay safe.
Carry Mace, bear spray and at least a very sharp pocket knife.
It’s so scary that a woman can’t even jogged or take walk without the that someone could hurt her.
Agreed. He also suggested not run with a ponytail because it’s easy to grab.
It’s a damn shame we women can’t even have a morning jog without worrying about some fool abducting and murdering us. Be safe and aware, ladies. Thank you for your content
Women can't even enjoy getting sunshine without being bothered by men
@@linzwalker436 man too
I'm personally ok with not going out in the day.....
But having to convince my husband to go for a walk with me at night is a pain...(even if it's around the block)
People who run do enjoy the scenery. If they Really DO love just to Run, find a public Track! Indoor or Outdoor. If they Like the Scenery More? Then add on a good Sunday drive, like the elders do! Maybe take a scenic drive home...
The morning time is so beautiful and it feels good to exercise early. This senseless tragedy has everyone on high alert .
I was a big-time runner when I was in college. And there was an incident that completely changed my thinking of running alone. I was running on campus, and was clearly being followed by a vehicle. He was going out of his way to follow me. At one point he actually drove up on the curb to get really close to me, and I quickly changed direction. But this went on for about five minutes him trying to follow me and get up to where I was. Fortunately because of how close he was, I was able to get the license plate. I ended up running home calling the police and filed a report. About a week went by, I got a call from the police station, they had caught the guy, here he was the campus rapist that they were looking for. I think about that day a lot, and realize how lucky I was to get away from him. Now when I run I am always with someone.
Omgosh Jennifer that is so scary! I’m so glad you got away. 😭 I hope he went to prison!!!! Unbelievable you couldn’t even feel safe on campus. 😞
Omg that’s traumatising, I’m sorry this happened to you and sorry for all the women he did this to. It’s sickening and frightening to even imagine. Glad they caught this sicko. Hope they locked him up for a long time.
I’m sorry this happened to you but I am glad that you got away
I once had a man physically block me from passing him on the sidewalk when I was running before. Not to mention the honks, yells out the window and people slowing down next to me to talk. Let’s just say I miss the outside air but I’m back to the treadmill for this very reason. Stay safe ladies 😌
True
This is my experience as well. I live in the South, and people are very friendly and forward with everyone, southern hospitality and all that. But as a small woman, I get men pulling up on me to talk or... Whatever. Women we are just not safe, pay attention to your surroundings! And be able to hear as well- its easy to go on autopilot when listening to music or CZcams.
Just says a lot about Eliza, she was an heiress and still wanted a career as a teacher, even during the pandemic. That right there shows me she has a beautiful spirit. So sad and tragic. Praying for her boys and pre-school children she taught.
Heiress and she didnt have a treadmill?
A lot of people prefer running outdoors. What's your point?
@@aprilsheppard556 safer to get a treadmill they have VR type ones too so if she rich why not...theres been plenty news stories on women goin missin while running and she didnt rven have pepper spray or nothing?
Couldn't of said it better myself. Beautifully said girl. ❤️
@@BisexualBeauty my sister has a treadmill at her gym but she prefers to run to the gym workout and then run back home. Runners prefer running outside whenever possible because it’s more like where they will be running their marathons. It’s sad that they would have to give up what they love because of evil monsters.
she was taken only 5 minutes from my house and I had been following it from the moment I got the text from UofM saying she had been kidnapped hoping she’d be found alive. it sickens me knowing people think it’s in any way her fault. no one should have to fear going on a run or doing normal routine things.😞
My gosh! stay safe girl
@@nabt7009 thank you, you as well!
I'm so sorry! That's terrifying!! This story has bothered me so much and I genuinely can't imagine being that close to where it happened? Stay safe!! I agree about the foolish people who are trying to blame this precious woman for what happened to her. When a monster sets his sights on you, it doesn't matter what you're wearing!? Every woman deserves to be able to run wearing athletic wear without fearing for their life❤️
These types of women make the Military a JOKE at worst and Dangerous at most. I've had to be stationed with PRIVILEGED, upper class females who simply go to an Ivy League college or similar type and then want to add 'military' to their resume for GOD ONLY KNOWS WHAT REASON because they are a DANGER to the rest of us by being SO out of touch with how the REAL WORLD works😠!! Anyways, the majority of these 'Officers' playing dress-up, they are ALL runners. Like, be in MOSUL IRAQ and start their 10 mile runs at 4 am. In the dark. IN IRAQ. I DESPISE them. One evening a female Major from Walter Reed decided that at 10 pm at night, while walking back to our chu's from the Aid Station that she would LEAVE THE GROUP OF MALES we were walking with, and take a detour through the Iraqi Interpeter camp..BY HERSELF. I watched that idiot disappear into the dark and kept moving with the group.
😞 how scary. I hope you have mase or a taser or something. Times are insane lately, stay safe Hun.
Reading all these comments is giving me chills. I was an avid hiker my entire life and never had a bad experience with men on trails. (Going jogging a different story)
Being stuck on a mountain with a creep is really scary. At 31 I was with my 11 year old daughter and we were doing harder hikes together as she’d been hiking with me since she was a baby. She was thriving up this mountain and anyone that saw her was complimenting her on how well she was doing for her age. I didn’t think much of it but knew it was a fairly hard hike. On our way down you had to slide down a snow embankment and this girl slid behind me and asked me to stay with her. I asked why, since she was with her boyfriend? She said it wasn’t her boyfriend, it was a guy she met online that took her to this hike for a first date and she had never hiked before. I said girl! This is a really hard hike for a first time.
We agreed to stay with her but he stayed close but didn’t talk to me at all. Not one word but he showed massive interest in my daughter. He kept telling her to come walk by him and ignored me, the mother. My daughter was so trusting she didn’t think it was weird. I had to yell at her to stay with me. She was so mad at me because I made her walk next to me holding my hand. Normally my daughter and I run down trails but the girl wasn’t comfortable so it took until way after dark to get to the bottom. I text our friends that lived close by what was going on and then we lost reception. When we got to the trail head I saw our friends trucks and burst into tears. I didn’t even realize how upset I was until it was over. The guy jolted to his car and took off. The girl had a friend pick her up. Later that night she send me screenshots of him saying how hot her ass looked on that hike! I think we all know what his motives were. The fact he even felt confident enough to text her after.
I haven’t hiked a harder trail since. They’re usually less populated and deeper into the mountains. It just didn’t seem worth it and as a mom I really felt the guilt of putting my daughter in that situation.
A week ago my daughter suggested we try again. She’s 18 now and I’m 38. We brought mase, pocket knives and made sure to leave early enough we wouldn’t be in the dark. Well it was definitely a hard hike!! I get why everyone was complimenting my daughter! This time we both could hardly make it up! Our muscles were not as strong as they once were but we made it to the top. 14 miles round trip. We decided to do a hike a week and get our concealed weapons permit. I hate that we have to but I’ve lived in fear for 8 years and stopped living.
Thanks again for everyone that shared, it’s nice to know my fear wasn’t me being crazy, I truly knew something was wrong and reading everyone else’s stories confirmed that for me. Thank you agai for all your shares.
Thank you for sharing this!
I normally walk my dogs on nature trails, but one day about six months ago I decided to leave from our house and just walk the dogs around town for some quick exercise. I was walking for about 5 minutes - minding my own business - when somebody in a car threw trash at me and hit me in the back before speeding off. We only walk on trails now! Some people are just horrible, with zero empathy, and have no problem dehumanizing another person.
I feel so badly for Eliza and think she just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. I hope her husband and children will be able to find some peace and healing in the future, although this will affect them for the rest of their lives. So sad, and *so* terrifying. That man should never be released from prison, ever.
That sucks
I can't even go to Walmart after dark without getting harassed in the parking lot. I refuse to go anywhere when it's dark out (morning or night). I firmly believe those of us that can conceal carry, need to do it because that's the only way to defend/protect ourselves from these nasty perverted men.
and democrats are against u carrying a gun and defending urself from psychos.
Just the other day I'm walk to my car and a guy hanging out this car ask me if he can "holla" at me for a sec. I simply said no unless you want me to bring my husband 4 kid and 3 cats along.
Walmart after dark is just scary.
If you are able to conceal and carry and are comfortable, I would strongly consider doing so. As women, we are targets, for no other reason, than being women. It's time to be prepared to protect ourselves and our children, if necessary!
My friend has 2 rottweilers. She goes anywhere whenever she wants.
My sister and I were just talking about this case. Living in Memphis has become so scary lately. Abductions, spree shootings and car jackings have me afraid to leave the house. The crime rate here has gotten ridiculous.
I live in Memphis also and I swear everything going on has me not wanting to leave my house. Then we had a terrorist threat yesterday smh. It’s really scary here
Yes. But this can happen anywhere. I live in Texas and am super careful. Rachel Cooke was abducted while running over 20 years ago and still hasn't been found.
But people continue to vote in the same democrat leaders who implement these "progressive" crime bills, although there's absolutely nothing progressive of zero bail even in violent crimes, early release programs and being allowed out on electronic tag for multiple violent crime and what they describe as "care in the community" of sex offenders, violence and sexual assault perpetrators allowed to remain in the community as long as they attend psychiatry appointments and take medications regularly, it's such a joke. lWhen the violence and crime rate reaches a climax of not possibly being any worse than it already is under the same leadership as a result of their initiatives, then why on earth don't the people decide to vote for the complete opposite of what they voted for the last decade that's causing such terrible crime stats in the hope of change... For the better? It blows my mind that the populous is so poorly informed that they continue to vote the same people in year after year after year like some automotons even though they continue to suffer under their leadership.
Same here! It’s so scary! I’m a native Memphian myself, and I don’t recall it ever being this bad. I’m about ready to move
Never be afraid to leave your own
Home just be prepare
When I was 14 I was cycling in an urban area. A car started to follow me. I started to take random turns to make sure that I wasn't being paranoid. I wasn't being paranoid. The car had slowed down and was literally following me. This was in South Africa where most houses are walked and or gated. I managed to find a house that fortuitously had no wall or gate and the garage door was open. I rode straight into a random person's garage and hid, hoping that whoever was in the car would assume that house was my home. The car slowed down to a halt and waited for a full 5 minutes, opposite that house! That was the longest 5 mins of my life. Eventually it drove away. I was so frightened that my legs felt like jelly and was terrified that the person/people in the car would find me as I cycled home. This was in broad daylight approximately 15:00. There IS NO 'safe time' for girls and women (of any age) to be alone, minding their own business and that is the tragedy.
You see that is why people need to arrest people and keep them in jail for kidnapping charges. If this kidnapper stayed in jail and never bailed, she would have been alive. This is so horrible and sad. She doesn't deserve this at all. Christina, I am sorry that you had a terrifying experience while you were jogging. I am glad that you're okay. Thanks for sharing your story.
People are saying “women shouldn’t be told they can’t jog by themselves or at certain times of the day”, and that’s absolutely right. That SHOULDNT be the case but the fact of the matter is that it IS the case.
There are men that intentionally wake up in the morning to prey on women. Waiting for their opportunity.
I know it’s sad, but that’s the harsh reality.
You gotta be safe
I think what you wear when you jog is just as important to your safety as what time you jog and where you jog. To the wrong person, a scantily clad woman is nothing but a target for abuse and lust by a psychotic misogynistic predator.
@@thirstonhowellthebird There have been elderly women fully clothed in their own homes raped and killed. A woman’s dress doesn’t have anything to do with it and we need to watch blaming women. I understand the post above is accurate and we do need to look at reality and play it safe but we already blamed enough for everything that happens to us. Can we stop being scolded for the way we dress too? Ugh
@@simplysarah0310 I agree with everything you say. It should not be that way. Women should be able to dress any way that they want however that does not change the fact that a misogynistic man will likely be drawn to a scantily clad woman if he’s sick and twisted and up to no good. That’s just a fact as sad as it is. Not victim blaming at all. Just speaking facts. I know for a fact that if I dressed like that and went out where I live for a jog more than likely something bad would happen because of where I live. It’s so wrong and so unfair but it is what it is. On the other hand if I were to wear a baseball cap and big baggy sweatpants there’s a good chance I might go unnoticed or mistaken for a man.
@@thirstonhowellthebird i can leave the house in a hoodie and sweat pants and still be bothered just as much as if i leave the house in a sports bra and biker shorts. BUT the sports bran and biker shorts does attract more of a certain type of man... If that makes sense
@@thirstonhowellthebird There's an artist that collects outfits from many women who've been abducted and raped by men....most of the outfits are either jeans/hoodies, pajamas from kids and long sleeve dresses...clothes don't mean shit when a man is preying on a victim.
I originally went to school for early childhood so the fact that she taught preschool without needing to work another day in her life financially, speaks volumes. It’s another level of patience and sadly they aren’t paid anything to make a living. So glad she was able to do that. So terrible this story 😢
We don't actually know that there was millions of dollars willed to her though.
@@sarcasticallyrearranged She was actually given a large inheritance from her billionaire grandfather and did not even need to work. She was a preschool teacher because she truly loved what she did
I had such a creepy experience years ago. I was walking my mother's dog in her safe and pleasant neighborhood. It was only about 8 p.m. but dark out. There was a section of the street, about 20 feet long, with no street light. I usually just walked quickly through this dark area, but on this particular evening, a van passed me and stopped just ahead of me in the dark patch. I was immediately on my guard and slowed my pace. I heard the side door of the van slide open and someone inside the van barked like a dog. I immediately turned around and walked quickly in the opposite direction to a lighted area. The van drove off. I'm a very petite person, and I think they were trying to get my dog to react to a bark and drag me toward the van where I might have been pulled inside and disappeared. It still gives me chills thinking my mother might never have known what became of me.
Omg!!!😯 thank God you were on your toes!
Good grief that is terrifying! I'm glad you are okay!
I’m a long distance runner too, Christina. Since having my daughter running outside was too difficult. Plus I spotted a bear not that far from my home recently.I got a treadmill are used to hate it now I love it. And here I am running and watching your videos. I’m safe and I can run for as long as I want. You could get used to a treadmill..
Treadmills suck so bad
Wow a bear!
Imagine going missing/being brutally murdered and the internet digs up dirt on your personal life. What a slap in the face… that part of the internet just sucks.
That Dirt could be A Clue.
@@KikiW89 absolutely correct
Is isn't that the sad damn truth 😡
Yeah but in the event that it’s unrelated, it’s just unfortunate
If this had happened to me I would WANT the internet to dig into everything and help find me
You could just tell by her huge smile, that she was such a gentle and kind soul. What a huge loss for all of us, but especially her children, her husband, and the rest of her family. Sometimes life is so unfair. 😔
They were both addicts.
What😭
My aunt was an avid runner. She always ran the same route at the same time and thought nothing of it until she realized she was being watched. Thankfully he didn’t catch wind she was onto him and was arrested before he hurt her. We are so thankful. ETA: when I used to run, I’d run during my lunch and I’d run with my gun strapped to my thigh. Remora makes an excellent strap for this purpose. ♥️
Please always carry your ID when running! If someone snatches you, pull it out and try to throw it. I know it's easier said then done but this helps people and authorities identify your last whereabouts easier. Also, never feel bad looking behind you when walking. Pause the music and focus on your safety. I do this often. I listen to my podcasts very low and will look back every few min just to be safe. Another tip, stay in neighborhoods if you are going alone. Don't go hiking alone or a night walk alone. Stay in the area where there are houses all over. Many homes nowadays have cameras so this helps as well. We can't always have someone with us but I hope these tips help. Stay safe, loves!
Leave behind WHATEVER you can, even if it’s the shirt off your back or your shoes! And if you are in a public space fight back make as much noise as you can. If they tell you that if you scream they will kill you! Scream! Better to be shot dead quickly than taken who knows where possibly tortured, dumped and never found. Plus, 9 times out of 10 you stuggling and screaming shows you aren’t an easy target and I seen several abductors/serial killers that said if the victim put up a fight they would leave because it wasn’t worth getting caught/bringing attention to the abduction.
I always hold onto my mace that’s attached to my keychain when I’m walking alone or to my car, and I lock the doors immediately as soon as I get. it became an absolute habit and I don’t even consciously do it anymore. I don’t live fearfully but I have read way too much true crime to be oblivious and not aware of my surroundings.
I used to run later in the evening every night, because it was too hot during the day. I had SEVERAL incidents similar to your own where people would drive by me multiple times, slow down, even yell things at me. I was once shot at with a paint ball gun, also had a bottle thrown at me and my dog late one night. (this was in Tampa) So sad that, as a female, we can't just enjoy a run with fear of possible death.
Omgosh! That is just awful! I’m so glad you’re ok tho 🥺🙏🏼💙
I'm a 32 yo man and work 2 miles from home so I ride a bike to work most days. I can't tell you how many times I've been harassed on the sidewalk. Stuff thrown, paintballs/airsoft, once had a group of teens try to fight me.
I used to take walks in the evening when the heat subsides some and live ~20-30 minutes outside of Tampa. I stopped and now exercise in the house or pay to go to a place to for exercise in a fun way in a safe place. I got called racial slurs and aggressive physical threats by several men from shouting and slowing down in vehicles so I'm not risking even stopping to smell the freaking flowers anymore. Its terrifying and I just can't. I miss it, but I'd have to PLAN to walk with a group of ppl just to be on the safe side. Taking a walk should not have to turn into a planned event. Its too much when I want the freedom to just throw on some sneakers and enjoy a walk and nature.
@@oliverwells8011 Yep. if people are up to no good, it doesn’t matter if they come across a woman or a man, they will try to mess with whoever they happen to come across, especially if they are alone and looks like an easy target, man or woman.
I'm so sorry that you've experienced these things. I couldn't imagine randomly being shot at with a paint ball gun!!! Please stay safe!!!!
This is so beyond sad. I'm so heartbroken and angry over this senseless crime whether it was random or not, it just didn't have to be. Christina, I'm so sorry for what happened to you on your run. It must have been terrifying and I'm grateful that you are safe.
This is insane, I have no choice but to walk to and from work everyday. I also walk to do all my errands. I can’t afford a car right now, and have been walking for over two years now every day. The amount of people that mess with me is scary. I’ve had to call the cops on numerous times for being followed by creepy guys that don’t take no for an answer. May she Rest In Peace and her family and friends find peace in this loss
I pray for your protection and peace. I also pray that your finances get in order and that you are able to afford a vehicle. God bless you.
Hopefully you can get a compact pistol to carry. Would be a good idea. Also you could use a bike, it would be safer.
I live in Memphis and this has shaken our city. Then the week after Eliza gets kidnapped, we had a guy go on a shooting spree and killed 4 or 5 people, wounding more. Our community is in PAIN. This is my home, my life. And we are scared to leave our homes. We need healing.
Also my moms cousin was kidnapped and murdered in Memphis in 1980, Wendy Welborn, her killer was never found.
Memphis has ALWAYS been dangerous. The FIRST day i came to memphis i felt the dangerous spirit of this city. Its not a city where anyone should feel safe. There have been plenty of kidnappings before Eliza but the difference is she is white and a heiress so that's why people care. Kid mappings shootings murder happen weekly in Memphis.
Christina Randall seems like a very down-to-earth and grounded person. I've been watching her videos for quite some time now, and I believe that she has really improved over the past few years.
Yes agree! Love watching her!
I 3rd that!!!
She's My Role Model.
She's so friendly. Down to earth and makes everyone feel like there Christina's closest Best Friend. True Beaty and Talent.
She’s a GEM!! 💎
She’s been the best from video 1!!
My husband sent this case to me a couple days ago and told me to watch out for your synopsis of it. And then you delivers 👏🏽🔥 This is a heartbreaking story filled with EVIL. It is disgusting what people will do. It makes me sick. I have to constantly remind myself that there is so so much good in this world. Sending prayers to this woman and her family. May Eliza Fletcher rest peacefully with our creator and her family be comforted during this incredibly tough time in His loving arms ❤️
Just a few details that I learned from watching Annie Elise's (10 to Life) video about this case:
1. The route she was running is in the same area as the university and where their women's cross country team runs. The CC team had filed several complaints with the campus police about a man following them/continuously driving by while they ran, and it scared them enough to file those complaints.
2. He was seen on security cameras driving around that area for like 20 minutes or so before abducting Eliza. Almost like he was waiting for a woman (possibly a member of the CC team) to run by that he could abduct.
3. Several women that live in the same apartment complex as his brother reported that he would offer them money in exchange for s*xual favors and was just all around creepy. I believe one woman said he tried to lure her into one of the apartments.
(Sorry if any of the specifics I mentioned above aren't completely accurate, but you can go watch the video on the channel "10 to Life" to see what I'm referring to.)
In addition to everything Christina talked about, these details lead me to believe that this was a random kidnapping, and Eliza wasn't specifically targeted.
Thank you for another great video Christina! I'm sorry to hear about your jogging experience, and I'm glad you're ok.
Yeah. Although there could be a racial motive as to why he chose her to do it to. (FBI stats would certainly indicate that.)
qu
Girl! I stopped hiking on our local trail when this older guy stopped, asked if my daughter and I were alone, and then said "you're brave to be out here alone." We always walked near other groups of ladies who were out there often, but I honestly haven't been back since.
This is so sad. I live in Memphis, went to the u of m, live 7 minutes from where she was abducted and used to go to her church. It’s so scary how close to home this was and how random this attack was. Memphis has been going through some disturbing stuff these past two weeks 💔
Memphis crime has gotten outrageous lately.
@@minxikedesh5173 we were just under lockdown two days ago because a mad gunman was driving around shooting random people for 19 hours straight..terrifying. And this is not a big city.
I know. I called in to work because I was too afraid to leave the house.
I was almost abducted out of a club, this guy was literally dragging me out the door and if some guys hadn’t stopped him, I might have disappeared too. Last time I ever went clubbing I tell ta. Such a sad story, a senseless death. :( rip sweet girl
You did a great job and spoke of her so highly . This is how I would want someone to talk about me . This content was handled with such delicacy due to good intentions and thorough research.
I still say your entire intro along with you on every video. Thank you for Shedding light on Eliza's story.
Hi Christina! I’ve been dealing with depression for years and currently on medication. I started watching your videos because they make me feel comfortable. Thank you so much! ❤️
She’s amazing!!! She’s such an authentic and sweet person! I genuinely think she cares about her viewers!
I also deal with horrible depression, and there are way too many hopeless days! It’s such a cruel world out there. I don’t know how much longer I can be strong…
Please know I’m sending you good vibes, and keep your chin up and know that it may take a long time, but it will get better with time!!! Until then, rest assured that you’re a strong badass!
Much love sent to you!!!
🙏💙🙏 stay strong
Sending love 💞
Amen to this!! 🙏 🤍
She helped me as well ❤️ All the best for you x
I’m glad you’re here. Christina has a bubbly contagious personality ❤️
This is such a tragedy. That poor woman and her husband and babies. 😢
That poor family, especially the husband. To not only lose your wife but then be blamed for such a horrific event, is sad.
The crime in Memphis has always been rough I wouldn’t want to go anywhere alone especially in the dark hours mornings or nights. This is such a sad story 🥺
This just makes me physically sick. That poor woman just wanted to go for a run. Now her babies have lost their mother
Just hire a Body guard...
@@lorenzomagazzeni5425 it’s just sad why would she need it ?? The world shouldn’t be like this she should be able to go on her own, people are sick .
Prayers for the family
Not blaming the victim, but as women we have to be so vigilant. She was so comfortable running at 430am and probably never thought this was possible. But watching these videos makes me very cautious these days.
Rip to her and condolences to her family.
took the words right out of my mouth!
You can run at 5pm in clear day light and it can happen..
@@user-rl4bp2to9r never said it couldn’t. I’m saying as a woman we are having to be super vigilant because these men are unhinged. She should be able to run whenever she wants but the reality is there are certain situations that make us more susceptible.
I wish women would wear shirts and not just bras. You draw unwanted attention
@@t.j.7789 you can’t say this, its considered “victim shaming” apparently. I suggested this and people wished rape on me lol for suggesting that if you’re going out alone don’t purposely wear anything that could intrigue these creeps.
Oh I have chills when you told your story Christina. My mother and I went to a local park around our house when this random man decided to stop and chat with us, he was talking about how his house was being renovated so he couldn’t stay home and it was just so weird, he kept asking personal questions like if we lived nearby, where we’re from etc… I’m so thankful my mom told him we had to go, and kept her arm wrapped around mine. We bought a treadmill, I now only go to the park with my husband and dog.
I’m so glad you talked about this kidnap/murder. I’ve been following it on the news. I think you’re spot on with your belief that it was a random kidnap/murder. It’s just so sad that on that day she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. My thoughts go out to her family during these dark times! I hope this will start the healing process for them. I will be a long arduous process for them, but hopefully, the journey will begin!
Dangerous career criminals that know no other way of life should never be let out of prison early. So sad.
If we all know these dangerous people are lurking the streets why in the world would you go out at 4:30 in the morning dressed like she was dressed. I hate what happened yo her but she should have used better sense than that.
Or just eliminated like cockroaches as they are a waste to taxpayers
@@lettiegrant9447 the blame belongs to the perpetrator not the victim. Doesn’t matter what she wore. The monster that killed her is at fault, 100%
It sounds like a crime of opportunity, so incredibly sad for all involved. Your coverage is so insightful and informative, while always remaining respectful. Very well done, Christina!
I agree def a crime of opportunity I thought that when she said he was wearing slides.
glad your safe and ok, thank u so much for keeping me updated on everything that's going on
The police moved pretty fast in this case! Condolences to the family☝🏿🙏🏾
To my Fellow Sisters: Girls the world is not the same world that we grew up in!!! Please do not jog or hike/walk alone!! This is a nationwide epidemic! It sucks but it’s just the way it is now.PLEASE be smart and be safe! God bless you!
When did you grow up? Crime was much worse in the 60s-90s than it is now, you just didn't hear about it all the time because there was no 24/7 national news channels or social media.
This is such a horrific tragedy that could of been prevented had that POS been locked up for life. He started his violent crime spree at the age of 12. At 16 he was arrested for kidnapping a lawyer. 20 years in prison when it should of been life!
She lost her life because the LAWS STINK!
RIP Eliza. I'm sorry you died such a horrible, Tragic death. My heart hurts for your family and those who you left behind. 😭
You are right. This criminal should have been in prison and he should never have been released. He was a violent offender. He r8ped a man when he was a teenager. A young male teen has to be very disturbed to r8pe a man...anyone really, but that is very violent because he overpowered a man in an act of power and control.
People don't understand what sexual assault/r8pe does to a person. It takes a very long time to recover from trauma like that. The laws should reflect some understanding that a sexual assault survivor has been traumatized and we don't want more sexual assault victims out here. The laws should take these violent crimes, like r8pe, seriously.
If you keep repeating violent acts, you should not be released from prison and you should be in there for life. Either that or start bringing back the death penalty for these people who can't be rehabilitated or trusted in our society around the public.
I hope her family can someday find healing. 💔
@@ellencarroll2921 Thank you for your reply. Our laws are screwed up. The perp has more rights then the victim. I bet he will get Life in prison instead of the Death Penalty. He will be segregated from others and have the luxuries of TV, Food, Commesary, And his needs met.
I thought what happened to her was hilarious 😂😂

@@penelopephelange oh wow ur so edgy 🙄
Hey Christina.. I could be wrong.. but just checking ur vibe in this video made me feel like you may need to be reminded to always take a break whenever need it, & yourself first. You are the best at what you do💥.. So trust.. we will be rt here waiting for you when you get back if ever you need a break. These types of stories can be draining. Your personal well-being it's just as important as anyone else's. Please take care of yourself. Sending you mad love & positive vibes from D-Town Colorado ♥️ 🤜🏾🤛🏾
If "being aware" " fighting back\screaming" stopped these kinds of attacks we wouldn't have so many. Something needs to change.
Something
The world is honestly so damn scary now. I’m on high alert at the gas stations and even the grocery store now especially when I have my little girls with me! It’s so so sad. Prayers for her family
If your state has Concealed Carry. Get yourself a CCW permit and a quality carry gun. Mine has saved my life several times.
It’s not just scary now Sarah, it always has been, these things aren’t happening more often now, we just hear more about it because of social media 😢 if I didn’t follow Christina I would never have heard about Eliza
Get a pistol and keep it loaded. It will save you and your daughters.
I am so glad you decided to cover this story. Eliza was a friend of my daughters. It breaks my heart. Memphis also made headlines this week with a mass shooting by a man named Ezekiel Kelly. 4 dead 3 injured. I hope you cover that story as well. Memphians are not safe anymore.
I grew up in the U of M and East Memphis area in the late 70s and early 80s. But in 2010 we just couldn't take it anymore. We lived right there off of Quince at the time. We sold our home and moved an hour and a half outside the city.
My husband still works in the city everyday and when they were put on high alert I was terrified for you all.
You're so right, Memphis hasn't been safe or felt like home in decades, and its heartbreaking 💔😔.
My deepest condolences to Eliza's family and your daughter. My heart goes out to you all.
We are in the times of Noah❤️
Hi ! I'm from Quebec, and yesterday on the radio, I heard that last year in 2021, in Memphis there had been
341 murders............ on a population of around 650,000........ So scary everywhere nowadays... so many lives broken every day........ Bless your life everyone.✫
@@daynal9594 BECAUSE ITS A BLUE CITY IN A RED STATE!!!
@@stj971 you are 💯 *EXACTLY* right!
I've been saying this very thing.
My friend was out and there was a car that made her extremely uncomfortable. The guy in the car very shortly took and murdered Cora Jones who was around 12 years old out riding her bike in an area that maybe has 1 murder at most every 10 yeara. She then realized this is the car that bothered me. Turns out he was the murderer in a couple other unsolved cases.
Girl!!! I LOVE walking outside in the evenings and so many creepy people/things(like your story) have happened to me I got a gym membership just to have somewhere to go and feel safe. RIP to Liza😥
I wondered if you would discuss this. I live and work in Memphis and I went to the University of Memphis, which is right where she was taken. Everyone in this city is just in shock between this case and the mass shooting that happened Wednesday afternoon. It's a bad time for our city.
Every summer I went to my grandparents farm in Gates, TN and stayed. I remember going to Memphis was a treat just to see the town. My prayers are with Eliza's family....R.I.P
I was at the Memphis zoo on Monday, the day before her body was found. We live about two hours away from Memphis and the whole drive over, my fiancé and I were discussing the scenarios of what could of happened to her. I hope anyone and everyone involved is punished to the fullest extent of the law.
i live in memphis. i remember seeing this on the news as soon as she went missing & just hoping & praying that she would end up being okay.
rip eliza. 🕊
it’s been a scary few days in memphis, thank you for covering liza’s story❤️ we had a run in memorial of her friday morning and it was beautiful.
This is where I live. It is heartbreaking and terrifying. Sadly from my 16 years of living in Memphis ( I moved from Florida when I was 22) There has always been a high crime rate and it continues to get worse and seep into more of our everyday life. We had a very nice memorial today where tons of people in and out of the running community finished her run starting at 4 AM then ended with a vigil. About 2 days ago someone went on a shooting spree stealing cars and killing 4 people and injuring 3 more. We were on lock down for hours until he was caught. He murdered from one end of Memphis to the next. Its been a hard week for us here in the Midsouth both for citizens and law enforcement. My boyfriend’s brother is a homicide detective and I can’t wait to hug his neck and thank him for the vigilance of the MPD lately.
❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
That’s terrible! So sorry those things are going on around you :(
I have an immense respect for teacher. It’s a hard, underpaid, under appreciated career. If she was a teacher when she didn’t have to work, it says a lot about who she was as a person. Very sad! Sending prayers to her family.
Where are the marches about her life being taken?
Faye, go march then?
He's been arrested, so what exactly would marching do?
Absolutely 💯 percent.
@faye king, they had a run in her name supporting her. Thousands came to run . They also have supported her with yoga activities
she was rich she doesn't need ur petty prayer
This case is so heartbreaking 💔my heart breaks for her & her kids & family
I appreciate the research you do and the way you relay the info ❤️
Never ever run by yourself. Never ever walk around or run with your air buds in. Please be aware of your surroundings & change it up . Routine runs have proved fatal. Geez in the 70’s & 80’s I’d hike alone in our state forest & camped with my boyfriend & our friends overnight. Scary! I’m from Boston. Love your channel Christina! I admire you being an open book. Your a sweetheart! ❤️
“Please do not show hate to anybody, anywhere “ it never gets old 👏🏾 love your channel, your videos are awesome girl ☺️
I can't. The police caught a break when the odor of rot permeated the air. I am beyond rage and despair.
Great job reporting. I wouldn’t have heard about this. ✌️
Thank you! You nailed it!
Thank you so much for sharing this story. I’m from Memphis born and raised. Over the years, I’ve watched the city deteriorate. It’s just gotten worse and worse. Living there is so stressful. There is a constant worry of getting shot or robbed, involved in a hit and run, or worse. I moved November of last year because the stress was too much. It’s so scary. I am 100% convinced that he did this spontaneously. That’s how most of the crime goes down. I’m sure He just looked at her and said “Im gonna k*ll this b****.” And that was it. Nothing more. The crime is just that senseless back home. The worst part is there is no end in sight. I hate to think that there is no hope for my home, but I just don’t see how it can be fixed. They are giving $15,000 bonuses to MPD new recruits and no one wants it. Can’t blame anyone. I may not be there now but my family is and my friends are. I worry so much about them, especially now. I hate that Eliza had to encounter the evil that is in Memphis. I hate that that piece of garbage destroyed such a beautiful person. Please pray for Memphis y’all. So many people are hurting.
I am born & raised an hour from Memphis, have spent my whole life going to Memphis for various things but I won’t go anymore. Your comment made my heart hurt. I hate it
Sad & sounds like Philadelphia. Key word: stressful!
If people would pull their head out and stop voting for democrats who go out of their way to encourage and enable criminals things would be very different. And I’m saying this as a former democrat... people who care more about the preparators of violent crimes over the victims of those violent crimes shouldn’t be running all these cities that have collapsed into crime ridden Hell holes because of their refusal to prosecute these violent thugs they just keep releasing back onto the streets to do it again over and over.
@Amy Lewis that is extremely ignorant of you to say. She was in proper and normal running attire. Regardless of what she was wearing that does not give anyone the right to abduct or murder Someone based on what they’re wearing. That woman was loved and cherished by her community she was a teacher and she was a mother. But it seems all you are is an Internet troll that has no respect for someone that tragically lost their life. At least Eliza made a positive difference.
@@ranchdressingisablessing8082 yeah thankfully my parents are about an hour outside the city too but my sister and a lot of my friends are still there. I don’t blame you for not going, you’re alwayS on guard. You have to be!
as a memphian and christina randall fan, thank you for uploading and covering this case, christina!
I picked her neighbor up while ubering that evening after she was taken. She was heartbroken. It’s a shame. Memphis has been in an uproar since. After this the city was on lock down because of the random shootings. Please pray for Memphis.
Hi. You do such great investigative reporting. I just love your introduction before the report. 💕🤞
Here in Ireland the same thing happened in January she was a primary school teacher she was going out for a jog daylight after her shift the whole country was in terror it was very quiet those days nobody let their kids walk to school no one jogged however myself and my sister went for a jog at night the same day she got murdered and I never knew about it till the next day. People are disgusting🤦🏽♀️🙏🏾
You think so? There are seniors nice older people who would kill stab rob. Older in their 60s. There are 'nice' looking young people they seem.kind polite they also would cut punch push n even kill you. In a min. For what...money a gold chain sex assault. Bank card. Car. Even no reason. Stay very safe. Indoors. If you can be seen with someone
I wanted to visit Ireland but because of my age and not knowing the currency and being single I cant go. Beautiful Ireland
@@suzannaandrea4306 Please come to Ireland we use euro as our currency it’s a peaceful safe place however I live in a small town was born in dublin but I wouldn’t live in dublin as it’s rough only visit that’s it I really love cork city Blackpool extremely awesome
its happening all around the world😢
@@suzannaandrea4306 age means nothing, don't let that hold you back from discovering new places and enjoying your life!
May I know, are you from Europe?
I was wondering when you’d cover this!! She got kidnapped right next to my campus :( scary for the people who live here on campus!!
So scary, please be safe!!
Ppl on the campus reported him to campus police before this even happened. He would wait in his car and stare at them and proposition them for sex. I believe he was prob there waiting for one of those students.
@@thewrightsisters9205 oh wow. I said he probably thought she was a student at the school especially since she is small framed and looks young.
Very informative thanks ❤️👍👍😊
How awful and terribly sad. This is heartbreaking! My heart goes out to her kids and family! RIP Eliza!
So sad, My heart breaks for her husband and especially her children. This world is not the same, we just can't do the things we use too. Evil doesn't even hide anymore, it's right out there on front street. I'm not a runner but I am a hiker and I always carry (I have a concealed weapons permit) for my safety not just from bears and cougars but creeps as well. And I have a trained large German Shepherd that won't let even my family near me. Which was a must due to a stalking ex who tried to murder me 3 times. Ladies PLZZZ be careful & never go it alone. This case is so heartbreaking.
after a situation I went through I wanted to get a license to carry but I have my knives and bear spray along with a taser for now. Deff want to be trained before owning. And if only I could have a dog where I live I damn sure would!! Glad you are safe and smarter and I hope your ex is very far away from you but also not harming someone else! Cause once a psycho stalker always a psycho stalker...
what do you mean? the world has always been an evil dangerous place for women :(
I think you hit the nail on the head... He never should have been released! God bless her family...
You are so much more respectful than the others trying to cover this case. Thank you for that.
New subscriber! Great detailed video
As someone who lives in memphis and had friends and family who knew her, this story is really shocking and upsetting 🙁❤️
I’m a runner too and a similar situation happen to me. This car with a male driver was following me. I saw this older couple walking I caught up to them and told them what was going on and asked if I could walk with them, they said yes. When that man saw me with them he took off so fast. After that I changed up my route but it took me a long time to get back out there running and now this. Thank God for that couple. My heart is broken for her family husband and kids. Praying for all of them.
What you described regarding your run happens to me many many times.
Run where others are running, never do your run @ the same time or same route.
Change up your routine everyday & always have you head on a swivel and listen to what is going on around you
I just went over this in my paralegal class it’s super sad
I’ve lived in Memphis all of my life and still do. Unfortunately, this is everyday life here. That’s why everyone in my family carries. My heart breaks for her family,friends and students.
I have listened to you for hours girl. Quality with audio is definitely back 😂 I love how you show us who the victims are. She was a beautiful soul.
I hope everyone in Memphis stays safe! There is so much tragedy going on there lately!
She was a kindergarten teacher. How will they ever explain this to her students?! Those little innocent babies😭. No words.
Here in South Africa you don't walk around alone at anytime, anywhere especially as a woman....not just early in the morning and in the evening. It's so so weird for us here to hear when people go for early morning or late night walks or runs😔
It’s a horrible thought that women can’t run alone, I would run a lot early mornings on a run trail during Covid, until a teacher here in Ireland was abducted and murderer too while out for a run, something like that happening in Ireland is very rare, gives us a false sense of security.
Very sad.
Some things can be avoided like what happened to her if she had her husband by her side
I'm from Ireland too. That case was so unbelievably sad and shocking the poor girl RIP
The problem is this man should’ve still been in jail!
We can and DO run alone. Everyday. Some of us refuse to live in fear …. Shit happens , people die 🤷🏼♀️
Hey Girl, I wanted to say your videos are amazing and honestly watching them gets me through some rough days. I love ya C!! Hope you & your family are doing good! Have a good day💜
Awww Dani 🥹 thank you for sharing that with me, that makes my heart happy. Try to remember these tough times are only a “season” in your life and you have to go the “valleys” to get to the mountain tops! 💫 I sure hope you have an abundance of AMAZING days/weeks very very soon! Love you!!! And Have a great weekend!!! 💙💙💙
@@christinaarandall have you heard Amber really doesn't have a kid it's a rental child for propaganda?
Dani, I’m right there with you
When cars stop down the road i cross the street for this VERY reason. God rest her soul and god help the ones missing her. So sad
I was just watching your Chris Watts video. Just wanted to say thank you for caring about the dog! Of course the poor kids as well but really love that you care about animals as well. Makes me like this channel even more! 🙏
I totally agree - this was just a random abduction/murder. What a piece of crap. I also had a scary incident while running alone. A group of teen boys. Like you, nothing ended up happening, but I have never run in public again either. Well, I got a huge dog & occasionally take her with me :)
I like your channel - you have life experience and common sense. I tend to come to the same conclusions as you.
@@tondaniraluswinga2590 it may truly be a coincidence. My degree was in Psychology, and Research Methods and Statistical Analysis (nerd, I know) 😂 Statistically speaking, coincidences are EXTREMELY common lol. I watched a show recently and the detective said “there’s no such thing as a coincidence”. WRONG 😭😂 There are lots of them. So many criminal cases have dead ends because things are just coincidental.
In this situation, I believe it was a random event. People like him are opportunistic 😔 If it was quiet, no one was around, and he was driving past her, he would have thought “hmm no one is around!” and took his chance.
The proof for me was the slides 🤔 A person doing a hit wouldn’t do so in an area likely to have cameras, and they’d wear shoes that won’t fall off 🤔 this was the sloppiest crime ever. It tells me it was unplanned. He saw an opportunity and he couldn’t control himself. Many serial killers are exactly the same.
@@tondaniraluswinga2590 That one thing is very strange but could be a coincidence. I just feel like IF the husband or someone had hired that guy, he would have threw them under the bus if they didn't make help him get out so......
*-OR-*
It was not random.
@@PeaceWithin82 I didn't think it was either.
@@tondaniraluswinga2590 if you think about it, if it was a hit, they are not going to hire the same person who previously abducted a family member (and was imprisoned for it), that would just be too obvious... I personally think it was either a random attack OR the attacker PERSONALLY had something against this family, could have possibly been stalking them and took this opportunity when he saw her out running. 🤷🏻♀️ Don't understand why everyone is so desperate for the husband to have involvement when there are so many other possibilities.
This is so heartbreaking! My friend was dragged and assaulted while jogging at a Very nice and public safe park last November. She almost lost her life. Thank God she is okay now. Since then I will not go jogging on any trails or in the evening. Sometimes I just won't go jogging at all because I'm just so afraid of what might happen since her assault and really shook me 😥
Ugh that’s terrible!! I had a similar experience few years back. There was this lady in my neighborhood who went jogging at like 6am and she almost got assaulted but she had a knife on her and thank goodness was able to get away! Even though it was years ago, like you said, I think twice. So terrifying that this is what is has came to
I swear theres no such thing as a “safe” park/space for a woman alone . 😩😠
It doesn't sound like a safe park.
@@sarahwales6276 it was once known as very safe. The park is in a great neighborhood where no crimes were ever committed. That's why it was so shocking. Just goes to show you something like this can happen in places that are known to be the safest.
@@zesuper yep! I sure know that now
I was a runner in my 20s there were times when I had insomnia and went for 4am runs. More recently I became an avid hiker (we live near amazing trails) , but after I once came across two men who were camping in a non camping area and they seemed rather creepy and also I came across a bear once, I have given up hiking or walking alone is wooded areas.
Wow a bear!
21:12! Damn. These shares are so important. Thank you.
Thank you for covering this case Christina! ❤️
Honestly, so sad. She seemed like such a happy, caring woman. Memphis needs all the prayers rn.🙏🙏🙏
I think it's a damn shame that ever since Chris Watts everybody automatically assumes it's the husband.
Absolutely broke my heart. Heavy on my mind all week. Just finished her run on Friday.
Instead of reviewing for my medical school exam tomorrow I’m watching Christina!😂😂😂 love you girl! 💖 thanks for always covering these cases and keeping us updated with the real juicy details!
