How the HELL did they get caught with child pronography and not get arrested for it??? THAT is a travesty.
Because your liberal government hates you. It's 2024, how do you not know this.
I thought maybe they wanted the bigger charge but he was released and he is walking free
Wot a joke he should me in prison we're he belongs 😮
A child should not have to be scared of anyone in their home before laying their head on their pillow at night.
I haven't even watched this yet and fully agree with this comment
This is true, si gle mothers really need to watch who they bring into there hkme especially if they have kids. Kids SHOULD NOT HAVE TO FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE IN THERE OWN HOME. VERY SAD STORY, RIP HAILEY, beautiful angel. So Heartbreaking, i always and always put my 2 girls first. I always tell Jim who is there father and my Husband if you ever leave me, id be single till the day i die.
Truth.
Yep
Well said. Amen
I wouldn't call her a "mother" That's an insult to real mothers who care about their kids
Exactly!
Breeder smh
Yes it is, these single mothers really need to watch who they date. Shame on her mother. There must of been signs, and she even felt uncomfortable in her own house witb him there. The mother then parties for the new year, come on are you serious. I hope she doesn't have any more kids. That step father is a Pyscopath, you can clearly see that. I hope they get him in jail
True dat x
We hear all too often stories like this…the boyfriend/girlfriend abusing or killing kids.
If my granddaughter said that she saw her stepfather outside her door at night and was scared he would come in... she wouldn’t have that problem anymore bc her door would be at my house, now.
Exactly, I could NEVER let my grandbaby go back home even once after hearing something so terrifying!!
Unknown people like you deserve a Noble Prize. Not celebrities who indulge or support corruption and use their power to activate peado mode undercover.
Respect to you sir/madame.
that stoned look would not give any person peaceful sleep, even monsters would be insulted when you call that thing a monster
This was me. When I finally told my grandma about my step dad she dropped everything in the dead of night and came to get me. I really thought she was going to kill him that night and I’m sure if they had tried not to let me leave with her she would have. This is a small, non-violent, God-fearing woman who was battling cancer. This was over 15 years ago by now and she is still here and still would do this for any of her grandchildren or great grandchildren.
@@KHH595 So happy that you had love like this to save you! So happy your story will have a different ending. God bless.
His decision to do on-camera interviews dressed in a shit eating grin and too cool for school shades was a bold choice.
🤣🤣🤣🤣💯😎
looked stoned.
@@ccjdis yep, for some reason a lot of dope fiends think wearing sunglasses everywhere is less conspicuous than having visibly dilated pupils. Which it really isn’t.
@@Texas_Made_ x
crazy for sure!
That mom’s addiction over ruled her daughters safety. SAD.
Yes and I hope the mother continues to think about how selfish she was and has changed her ways
Yes, it happens so often with drug-addicted parents😔.
One look at the mother and I knew she was on drugs. Addiction is a powerful thing, and Hailey’s mother let addiction become her priority instead of doing everything in her power to search for her baby and fight for justice. It makes me sick.
Really!!! So sad! 😳🥺😩😞😞😞
I grew up around addicts and that’s not an excuse for the Mom.
The mother had more emotion when she was talking about people questioning her than when she was talking about her missing daughter.
I am beyond fed up of mothers who choose a man over their own children, it happens way too much. i have chosen not to have children and am accused of being selfish for this reason,but I feel I see more parents who are truly the selfish ones, like for example putting their love lives before their children. NO person should come before your own flesh and blood. I'm sorry but Shawn looked beyond guilty to me in these interviews...
It's ironic because I find a decision like that to be very selfless, not selfish. It's a massive undertaking to raise a child and too many people end up having them when they're unable to raise them properly, and that's selfish. You're not the only person that is effected by the decision to have a child.. that child is also effected by it. Not being able, or even having the desire, to raise a child, but doing so anyway, effects THEM a lot more than most people realize, especially _before_ they have them.
I think the mother was involved in this one. I don't think you can compare this lady to normal mothers.
I was called selfish for not wanting kids too. How is it selfish to not want to bring a child into this world? I ended having a child, despite not wanting to become a mother. I'm grateful and I absolutely adore my baby girl. I could never chose anyone over her. I've cut off friends and family for just speaking anything of her that's not positive, let alone, hurt her.
Don’t talk crap, how can you be selfish for not having kids?! Who are you selfish to?! Ridiculous thing to say.
Much like household pets, there are a lot of people that should be spayed/neutered and kept in a cage.
God Bless the Father pushing on, and pushing on Law Enforcement.
Mom probably wouldn't let her go live with dad to get benefits. Only reason I can figure she wouldn't just live with her dad.
Love & support to Clint!
at least, during her short life, Hailey had a real good parent, her father, she seemed so happy when posing for photos with him, smiling like a child should be smiling when feeling loved and safe.
Too little too late - why didn't he have the kids live with him?
In divorce a father can't just have the kids live with him. The mother will always have primary custody unless she's deemed unfit by the courts.
The father should’ve had sole custody of these two kids. The mom and her boyfriend were not people that should be responsible for raising children.
Exactly.
She was scared of Shawn and went to her dad's everyday, so just live with him!
I became single when I was 8 months pregnant with my youngest son. My oldest son was 4 years old. He is Autistic and completely non-verbal. I stayed single until my YOUNGEST SON was 15 years old. The truth is, even if you Think you know the person you're dating, you have no idea what's going on in their head. For me, it was not worth taking that chance, especially with a son who can't even tell me if something happens. NO PARTNER is worth it, in my opinion. Kids didn't ask to be here, it's our job to protect them- with our lives of necessary!!!
Best 💥💥
Yes I think its best
You can be with someone and if you don't trust that person then don't be with him or don't live with him.
DragonAndDragoness BornToBeWild , i totally respect you for that. I would be the same!
I'm sure you just had suitors lining up AROUND THE BLOCK just "BEGGING" to date you that whole time, too. Haha. Gimme a break.
Kudos to Hailey’s dad for not giving up. Hopefully the court will get this right.
The mum and stepdad are absolute monsters, man. Hailey had so much ahead of her. Her Dad is incredible to keep fighting like he did to get justice for his daughter. I hope Hailey's dad and brother can finally start to heal. The police work is an absolute shambles. RIP sweet Hailey ❤️😔
I know police should take things a bit more seriously at times . They also want and need enough evidence to make a murder charge stick and get a conviction. What everyone thinks is not evidence. Thank god it didn't take 20 years. Like you I hope dad and her brother can comfort each now.
@S D What is wrong with you ?
Too bad her real dad couldn’t take her in. Broken families are sad
There is no healing with the loss of a child.
my thoughts excatly about mum and the boyfriend such a devoted dad to keep fighting to get his daughter the justice she deserves sending clint hugs from the UK 💜💙🇬🇧
Who else thinks the mother knew/did more?
Me… let’s get the word out that wearing a T-shirt of the baby doesn’t make you blame free.
i didn't see genuine worry or despair from her
These are not master mind criminals, I wonder why wasn’t her being pressed by authorities at the time…or during those 10 years…I wonder why wasn’t her arrested also. I guess the police in this place is dumber than these drugged assed criminals.
Absolutely! WIth you on that
Everyone here in west texas thinks the mom and her boyfriend did it. It's obvious
Looking at the "family" photos, you can see that only the mom and her man are happy. The kids expressions are half-hearted at best. Hailey's eyes tell a story.
Thought the same thing
That's so true, always look in the child's eyes, they do tell a story....
That’s easy to say when you have hindsight
@@ymirs4400 I didn't know anything about this story and as soon as I saw the 1st photo of him and then the 'family group' shot, I didn't trust him and I thought something off from the kids' faces. No hindsight there.
Agreed!
Even after proven she was murdered the mother still says “after Haley left” hummmmm NO after she was murdered by your boyfriend.
What an absolute nightmare. And heartbreaking 💔
The pos mother should be sentenced to death. She failed to protect her child. I hope she is condemned on judgement day.
There is a justice higher than that of man we will be judged by him 🕊
From one single mom to the next, be careful who you date and bring around your kids. Your love life is no longer just about you…
Right there with you. I prefer to wait till my kids have grown up and can take care of themselves before starting a relationship if I ever do. But that's me.
EXACTLY. No man on the face of this earth should come before your children. I divorced my ex when my youngest was 3 months. I stayed single until she was 15. I’m talking no dating or anything. I raised my kids alone instead of worrying about a damn man.
TRUTH 💯
Not all step parents are evil.. some are better then the biological parent.. SOME are pretty amazing!
I'm not saying don't date with caution, I'm not saying rush into anything but I'm certainly not going to say you should stay single just incase. Life is risk and if my daughter didn't have the step parent she has she would of missed out on a father figure in her life and feeling love from two stable parents, To learn how your significant other should treat you, how a loving parent should etc.
It's almost like saying even women without kids shouldn't date becasue men are 100% capable of harming you and a woman is 100% capable of being harmed. DOES THAT MEAN ALL MEN HARM WOMEN? of course not!
Except worse In Immoral societies
“I was the last person to see her alive. Also, I’m violent and dangerous and she feared me. Further, I have CP on my laptop that the cops just gave back to me. Finally, it will take 10 years for you to piece this together and finally arrest me when it was obvious.”
Yeah it may have been obvious, but still all circumstantial evidence. Would you rather they try the case and he gets a non guilty verdict? Then gets to be free for life because of double jeopardy.

@@yup_its_ME.512 They took the laptop after he moved out of the mother’s home. Other people were living in the house he had moved into and had access to and used the laptop, so the police couldn’t charge him.
@@yup_its_ME.512 law doesn't work that way. it is frustrating but you better have solid evidence to prove the guy guilty. Remember the burden of proof in criminal cases lies on the prosecution and not on the defence
I remember when I was about 8, my sister and I had to stay with my grandmother for some time and my uncle moved in soon after. As young as I was, I felt very uncomfortable around him, especially when it came to how he acted around my sister. I told my mom and she came to get us the same day and we never went back. I found out years later that the same uncle had r*ped my aunt years ago. I’m grateful that my mom didn’t question me and just saved us from the situation.
That she believed and protected her children is everything. When I told me mom my new step dad attacked me she told me I was a liar and ruined everything for her. I was 6. I didn't tell anyone else he was beating me up after that because it didn't matter to anyone. Eventually he stopped hiding it and beat us openly. My mom did nothing.
@@lyndaanneshop I’m so sorry to hear that ♥️
My moms stepfather was a flasher. She wouldn’t let us alone at her mothers house at all. Unfortunately my so called grandmother brought numerous men around before marrying that dirtbag. My dad thinks my mom was raped by at least one of the men. My mom was a mess until the day she died. Your mom is truly a good mom.
@@tracypolselli1464 I’m so sorry to hear that your mom went through that 🌻 but kudos to her for protecting you 💗
Exactly how a mother should react. But I cant help but feel, that ur grandmother went the other way. Did she not believe, that he had r*ped ur aunt?? Why would she allow him to move in with her 2 young granddaughters there? Thats just insane. So thankful, ur mother acted so promptly.
I’m from midland texas and I remember when this all happened. I follow her dad on Facebook and he never not once did he give up looking for her!! GOOD JOB DAD!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Very good job dad… bless your heart!!!
I suspected him at the beginning because he had sunglasses on!!
such a shame mum didn't protect her dayghter. the bf is a creepy sod
Hey Sarah you ought to know that idiot was stoned to hid his blood shot red eye.
@@Sarah-zv9ug That was the mum's bf, not the dad
How do you not get charged for CP ! That’s disgusting why even take him in in the first place. That just blew my mind!!!
Gotta wonder who he knows.
Yea that was unbelievable that he wasn’t held in custody. What a sick f*ck and the mother clearly knew what kind of a man he was, yet she allowed him to live under the same roof as her children. I’m sorry but I think she knew exactly what he did to her and possibly was even involved in covering it up. If I am wrong then forgive me, but I still hold her responsible to a certain degree regardless
Disgusting..
And they caught him downloading it on multiple computers at that!!! That’s ridiculous and crazy
@@deftones8717 everyone in the area believes this also.
This poor little girl was failed by her own mother. A terrible tragedy. May she be at peace now 🙏
I stopped dating just for this reason. I don't risk my babies for anyone.
The so called mother should be charged too for moving that piece of crap in and not putting her daughter's safety before her need to party it up with her younger boyfriend. 😠😡
@@MrsDrGonzo1971 completely agree with you. She should be sitting in jail with him. Even if she didn't have anything to do with it.. which I'm not convinced of.. but even so if she hadn't been so caught up drinkin and druggin maybe she coulda noticed what he was up to. But I believe she at the very least knew he was into some sick shit. All the stuff they found on their computers and in the house and all she could say was "well lots of people are into true crime".. Uh, yes but they're not lying to police about their missing daughter.. " I sure hope he didn't hurt anyone else in the 10 years they took to arrest him.
@@cw6621I did the same. I didn't date or bring a man in my home or around my girls. Any social life I had it was outside the home & family. I did this for 12yrs and do not regret it a single bit
Yes, a mother's priority should be her children, not a man she wants to please and sleep with. This whole story and many like it just makes me sick. I hate to think of the pain and torture this poor baby girl went through before passing.
I can't comprehend how a mother didn't even shed one tear through this whole ordeal. 😢 RIP, Hailey 🙏
Ohmagawd! True! I was about To comment this!
Only reason police even made an arrest is because of Hailey's dad putting pressure on them. They would've let this case stay cold if that didn't happen.
I agree.. and I just don't understand that attitude.
And he was released two yrs after being arrested due to lack of evidence. They never took it to trial
Nobody talks about her brother
I hope he's doing well too 🙏
Great point.
@@TeamCat1128 yeah I think he would blame himself for sleeping over at someone else's house. Poor boy
I noticed a lack of any info about him. Obviously wants to be well away from this nightmare
I was thinking about that too... :(
I think he should've investigated the brother also. Seems like the police discarded him right away or like hes managed to get away by maintaning a low profile, not making anything to bring any attention to himself.
Who let’s their 13 year old daughter sleep out WITHOUT knowing where or confirming it? Are you kidding me? Bullshit. As soon as I saw him explain her absence that way, I knew immediately he was involved. This is why I haven’t dated in 13 years. My son is 13 and I’ve seen way too many horrific videos and read terrifying stories of kids being abused or murdered by their partners bf/gf 😡
I thought the same as soon as he opened that trap! That monster killed their daughter, went and picked up mom from workvthen hit two banks for withdrawal to get drugs. Sorry guys but her mom is awful! She knew he did it, lying to herself! The dad is right they both were involved. If I came home and ' my boyfriend' told me that my daughter decided to sleep over any damn where I would want to talk to her asap! That poor child did everything to be a good well rounded person. A child any parent would be proud of and she's doing drugs with a pedophile?! She had to have seen him look at her in a strange way at least once! I blame her for his ass staying free for 10 years!!
Yess God Bless You And You're Smart Alot Of Women Still Making That Mistake It's Sad
Spot on!!!
My parents did. But yes he is still full of shit.
right never ever compromise !
The stepfather said Hailey had told him she would spend the night at a friend’s house, but none of the stuff she would normally take for a sleep-over was missing… Huge red flag there right from the beginning
Some people truly have NO business having kids. I can’t imagine putting my kids in any situation where they’d be exposed to drugs, vulnerable to harm, or feel unsafe in their own home-re; Hailey told her grandma she felt scared seeing his shadow under her door crack at night. I’d have more respect for a parent suffering from addiction if they gave up their kids until they get their crap together! In this case its beyond mom & boyfriend being addicts. Based on the computer findings, one or likely both are clearly depraved people with vile, dangerous & aberrant obsessions. Sad any child has to live this way, or worse, die as a result of their parents neglect & selfishness. My heart hurts for Haileys dad & all her loved ones.
*sees a guy doing an interview with sunglasses*
Me: yep. He killed her
Exactly! we want to see your EYES, I knew he was guilty.
Exactly our eyes are the windows of our souls I'm always funny about people who never take their sunglasses off what are they hiding!!#!!!!
How do u know??
Can’t see a man’s eyes can’t trust him!
Yes, especially THOSE sunglasses. And the way he hesitated while they were asking him questions.
That poor father even looking for her with his binoculars while he was at home because he couldn’t stand not to be looking for her that’s so sweet 😭
Yeah whilst her mother and step dad were having a party. Very strange. Poor guy, can't imagine that feeling of hopelessness, day by day.

It's Colorado. I'm not surprised at all.
@@Bubba__Sawyer no, this was in Colorado City, TEXAS.
They dropped the charges
"Do nothing but hope?"
I don't have kids but if my kid was missing and had been for 9 days, the cops would have to physically stop me from searching everywhere for them.
Right?? And the fact that strangers who hardly even knew hailey were out searching for her and seemed more worried than haileys own “mother” did is just heartbreaking
I find it heartbreaking that Billie never shed a tear over her daughter being missing, gone as she kept saying when she left. She didn't leave she was murdered by your boyfriend ugh!! So heartbreaking!!
We were part of a search party from Ft. hood, looking for Hailey's remains in 2010, and even then most suspected Shawn. can't believe her mom had a New Years party just 4 days after she went missing.... You have to wonder why it took them so long to make an arrest. May Hailey rest in Peace 😢💔
Odd behavior like that is a red flag. I'm sure everyone knew this ... But again, if they don't have the right evidence, they can't legally make an arrest. This type of stuff has got to be done right or people can appeal the case easily and get out of jail.
I’m from Abilene. I couldn’t believe Billie moved to Austin! Like what if Hailey showed up?? Billie obviously knew she wasn’t coming back.
Why couldn't she live with her dad since she was scared of her stepdad and went to her dad's everyday...
I wish she had asked to live with her dad 😭
@@samsamcupcakes6476 yes…and I also wish Hailey would trust her father and told him she was afraid and wanted to sleep at his house instead.
I don’t know why girls don’t tell a lot of people what they are afraid of….
This is what can happen…but I knows nothing about why she not could live with her father.
Maybe there was a reason for that too?
@@samsamcupcakes6476 Because custody is a thing unfortunately
On June 27, 2023 Shawn Adkins, after spending over 2 years in jail, was released from jail . The prosecution recommend the Court dismiss the case, subject to re-file pending further investigation. This sweet girl deserves justice 😭
He was released last month because of “missteps” and “lack of evidence”
I could never understand how a parent that’s not participating in the search of their child doesn’t think that would look odd to others. Not to mention partying and 💩. I understand people grieve differently but to not participate is whole different level of grief.
Most of the time direct family members mostly parents are not actually allowed to join the search party. Just because I guess they could plant something or mislead the search party. So often police won't let them actually join the search party
They usually told not to search & wait at home. The partying, well thats sick. Casey Anthony springs to mind.

Today, Shawn Adkins was indicted for her murder!!! Finally!!
Even Ray Charles can see that shawn Atkins is guilty.
"it's like killing a deer" 🤦
Ok! During the polygraph test he told them that he and her mother knew about Hailey.
It makes you wonder, I understand stalling to gain more evidence but 10 years - those detectives need to be retrained or let go.
Stevie Wonder also confirmed
I’ve seen the Blues Brothers…He can see! 😲
To be honest, I don’t like to judge BUT as soon as you said the step father was fired the day she went missing… I knew it was him. So devastating it took so long to get any kind of justice. Big love to Hayley, her father, brother and family. NOT her mother though
Well stated. I knew it too, so did her mother. It's so sad and disgusting.
Crazier is finding out he lied. He hadn't been fired he had quit! Made him seem more guilty imho
I found it disgusting how he kept his sunglasses on to me that’s guilt!
Sorry I already wrote this but after he gets fired he goes gets a drink, heads to mommy's house for an alibi.
Both mom and Hailey's mother are culpable I think.
She probably enabled him his whole.
I'm sure both knew about his porn addiction whole life.
ESPECIALLY NOT HER EGG DONOR. I REFUSE TO CALL HER A MOTHER
Two things struck me, one Shaun gulped when being interviewed while claiming to love and get along with Hayleigh. Indicating guilt why putting on a facade. Mother comes across as more concerned about defending herself in television plea as opposed to concern for daughters whereabouts.
If you look he's also shaking his head "No" while talking too.
You could tell from the interview the guy gave in front of the house, he was recalling the day in such detail it was obvious he was lying.
Your kid going missing is every parent's worst nightmare. I can't imagine having a freaking PARTY just 4 days after my child dropped off the face of the earth. I worry when my 20yo daughter is half an hour late FFS. Your children are the most precious people in the world, the idea someone took them is unthinkable.
Notice now that the Momster and Shawn have broken up ALL OF A SUDDEN she BELIEVES her Boyfriend did it! And she was the same Girlfriend who attempted to arrest him and lied and said he wasn't home! They Both killed Hailey Dunn the POS Monster and Momster!
💯
It is so sad that her own mother put her in this situation . Salute to her father who fought for her.
This channel is so good in respecting the victim. They never sensationalises the attackers like some channels do. They expose the guilty as the despicable sick human beings they really are.
A grieving mother wouldn't be partying celebrating new year's day!! She definitely had part in the murder , I just hope her ex talks. My condolences to the father, I hope he and the son got some closure after her funeral
I feel so sad for her dad... what a horrible situation.

Sorry for your loss ❤
As an Abilene kid we used to drive by a huge billboard on i20 with her face and name on it saying they were still looking for her. I was heartbroken when I heard they had found her remains, and now I'm finally watching this to find out what really happened. It's just awful.
I really hate this kind of mother. She is the one who was opening the home to a monster, instead of being a mother figure whose suppose to protect her child. I really hate this kind of mom. I know how it felt to just be in that kinda home. Poor hailey, rest in peace dear ♡
Oh no… if stepdad lived across the street and he was a suspect, how in the HELL did Dad have the self-restraint not to beat the truth out of him? Is that TExas?

Yes. The same Texas with the baddass rangers who spun the camera around so fast in the bedroom and said. Nothing amis here! And arrested her for lying and giving him back his computer with child pornography on it!
I'm sorry, there needs to be an internal investigation done here. Whether the police did their best work or not, there are just too many red flags to ignore. How do you ignore a hundred thousand pieces of CP AND turn away a woman for making up an accusation when this man is clearly suspicious. Maybe the police somehow did their best work and it just appears poorly, but there's definite cause for an inquiry!
I grew up in a town about an hour away from where Haley lived. I remember when this happened and seeing Haley all over the news and hearing everyone talk about her disappearance. At the time of her disappearance I was very close to the same age as Haley so her disappearance hit me hard as a little kid to know someone so close to my age, someone I could have been friends with or know or maybe played against in sports was just gone like that. It shook me as a kid. I truly believe that Haley’s disappearance is what started my interest in true crime and being aware of things like this. I hope maybe one day we will know the whole story of what happened. It breaks my heart but I’m glad there is finally some justice in this case.
I think maybe detectives need to watch thousands of hours of true crime videos because I called it in like 3 minutes
because you're on the sidelines idiot
It doesn't matter if you can "call" it. The only things that matter are those you can prove beyond a reasdoubt. Do you seriously think those cops in that town, who knew Shawn and have dealt with him and Billie for years, didn't immediately know he was at least involved? But what they know or think they know doesn't mean jack. It's what they can prove, which is why sometimes bringing charges takes so long. Charge someone before you have proof and they go to trial and get found not guilty because you haven't proved they were guilty.
I’m sure they suspected it but they can’t do anything until they have evidence.
When they said the mom had a boyfriend. I was like yeah he did.
@@clpr2023 thank you! I can’t believe people take things so literal!

To far too many people, their children are just possessions. They don’t view them as real people with thoughts and feelings, just little dolls to dress up and then ignore when it gets boring.
She doesn't even look like a mother..
Yep my thoughts exactly. Emotionless pos.
They dropped the charges against the step dad without prejudice in June 2023 😔 they said they have to do more investigating bc there is no forensic evidence or witnesses 😭 I appreciate that they want to make sure he’s convicted but I hate that he’s out free now.
Thank you for the update. I just can’t believe this
This is absolutely terrible. There’s still no justice after all these years 😭
I blame the mother too.. Hayley I’m glad you got the justice you so deserved.. Heaven gained a beautiful angel may you rip 🙏🏼💖
I don't know why any mother would allow her boyfriend to move in with her kids there. So stupid.
@@truth4004 it's the new norm
@@yup_its_ME.512 sad reality.
@@truth4004 I know right, statistically the biggest risk to a child is mum's bloody boyfriend.
@@truth4004 I really hate statements like this....women are allowed to date and move their partners in! There's absolutely nothing wrong with that! How are people meant to date and have a relationship progress? It's literally the same thing when women have a husband at home...how do you think they met and then lived together 🙄
The mothers Bf starts by OVER EXPLAINING, then he nods YES when asked if he'd ever hurt Hayley. I'm surprised the police didn't pick-up on that !
if your answer to simple question is a lengthy rant, you're lying.
@@princesabonita79 I do apologise, I think I completely misunderstood you.
That's how behavioural analysist would see it yes.
you have to see the big picture. this is/was a tiny town of -4k people. not sure if you're from a city or small town but where I'm at we only have TWO cops with a few volunteer fd why? you might ask because our town is -2k people at last census 😖
@@yup_its_ME.512 Yes, that makes sense
They named him person of interest. I’m sure they picked up on everything just wanted to make sure they had enough evidence to charge him and win.
I feel so bad for her Dad he seems like a good man who has been broken. I really hope he gets some closure soon.
I remember hearing about this case when I was little! I remember asking my mom non stop if they found Hailey, my mom would always tell me "Not yet." I was always hopeful that they would find her alive and well
The mom & boyfriend look guilty AF!!
The mom throws a party while her child is missing WTF 🤬
The step dad drives all the way to his moms the day Haley went missing 🤔looks more like he was dumping Haley’s body…
After seeing Shawn interviewed once I figured he did it. And he had an argument with his boss that morning and quit his job. He has the volatile temper and he had the time and opportunity. He was the last person known to have seen her
Why did it take 11 years to convict Shawn adkins when every bit of evidence pointing right towards him from the get go police had solid evidence in 2011 that he was lying about his whereabouts n what not I just cannot believe it took the police 11 years to solve this case the police failed this little girl just as much as her stepdad did 😔 rip lil angel 🙏
I absolutely love your channel. I just started watching recently and am a big true crime fan. I appreciate how raw, original and to the point your channel is. Please don't stop, you have one of the best channels on CZcams. Keep up the good work.
Straight away I thought it was the mums boyfriend. Look at how he always gets her around her waist in photos. One photo shows clearly how he leaves Hailey out. It’s like “ your mum is mine! I don’t want you to be here”. He keeps his dark sunglasses on when being interviewed to hide his eyes as eyes tell a lot. I always look at body language.
I knew it was just hearing his name!
Then in the other interview, the guy has no glasses on and shows no deviation. An authentic creep
I noticed the same too
@@itz-luigi1210 yeah I was looking at him in the eye but trust me he didn’t flinch
I also noticed she isn’t smiling in that photo with them like she does when she’s with her Dad… body language speaks volumes!
How a mother won't sense the bad intention of her BF towards her own daughter.
as her cousin billy was worse than Shawn was, billy was obsessed with death, serial killers and snuff films she constantly researched them and had plenty in her home that detectives linked to her not Shawn , Shawn was an absolutely disgusting human being and they both abused my cousin horribly im glad Shawn is being charged but billy needs to as well
@@elenaalejandro180 I’m sorry about what happened to your cousin. I completely agree that Billy needs to be charged. I’m worried nothing will be done to her. She clearly has a part in all of this. Hailey deserves justice to the fullest extent possible.
I love your editing and style.
The introduction with the dad is a great choice.
I'm totally happy to keep watching 👍
ANY woman… or “so-called” Mother… that continues to stay with a man that has “Child P” on his laptop… is just as sinister… and GUILTY too!… 😠
I agree with him. If the person has killed, there’s no reason why they should have the opportunity to live for 20 years longer than the victim.
This channel, That Chapter, Disturban and JCS (whenever he appears) are my favorite!
True crime loser’s good too.
JCS: Jimmy Can`t Swim
Yes!! Absolutely love them all
Thanks for the recommendations!
Strange, Dark and Mysterious.
"I can only hope that she left home alone." is a bizzare thing to hope for when your daughter is missing.
I would be in tears I would be devastated but the mom showed little emotions..
It's because she's on drugs opiates make a person a zombie and I believe she should be charged as well. Addiction is no excuse for what has went on w these ppl and what they did
Finally……this man deserves some peace and so does his lovely daughter. 🕊
And the mom gets off free and clear for her part in her own daughters murder? We won't even hold women accountable for creating the circumstances that end with their own children's murder. Absolutely astonishing.
Well we don’t know that she has got off yet.. whatever part she played will come to light I think
So far, from what I read in an article today. all she got was one year probation for lying to the police about the killer’s alibi the night Hailey went missing.
Women consistently get less harsh sentences than men or even get let off like in this case. It’s a real phenomenon look up statistics.
The mother’s statement was so insincere! As a mother, I would barely be able to get through my plea for my child to come home. This case is so, so sad!!😢
“True” justice is almost never served in a courtroom…
I feel for the poor brother, hope he's ok and has a happy life.🙏🙏
And the boyfriend was almost smiling thru the part where is was talking about the Nancy grace appearance. He looked like he was about to start laughing. Like he knows something that they don't and is getting a kick out of it!
Duppers Delight.
Exactly!
This is the first time seeing one of your videos and I wanted to say it was well done! 👏
It just sickens me when a child is murdered like this. To have so many tomorrows stolen like that, it's hard to come up with a punishment that is just to balance such a theft.
I just want to say I really appreciate your no bullshit, straightforward approach to the cases. I'm getting so tired of annoying true crime CZcamsrs and their vapid followers who never even discuss the content in the comments section. This is a fantastic channel. Please keep going 🙌

I can't imagine the anguish the father felt. Breaks my heart to see his interview . He lost his child and her potential future.
Thanks for the well spoken report on her case
Your style of narration is fabulous...you give the facts in a concise, succinct way. I'm a big fan! Thanks!
WTF….. how can you even think of hosting a party when your daughter is missing?, That is beyond anyone’s understanding and clearly shows she has no care or love for her own child.💛💛💛
That dudes creepy smile creeps me out. I knew immediately it was him.
This story needs to be a wake up call for us women & men be careful who you bring around your kids. Some people only want to pretend to be in a relationship with you in order to get closer to hurt your children.
I hope you guys make a part-2 once the trail end.
I just found an article dated 29th June 2023 & all charges against him have been dismissed!!!
If my kid was missing I wouldn’t celebrate New Year’s Day I’ll be depressed so for them to celebrate that it’s red flag or the boyfriend didn’t even try to help wtf

It's sad and frustrating that it takes so long in some of these cases. The problem is if you arrest the man and don't have good solid evidence then he could be found not guilty and then walk away a free man. I'd much rather they get it right and put him away for the rest of his life. As far as the mother goes it will be interesting to see what comes out in the trial as far as her involvement. She knows something.
thing is it's frustrating how many parents kill their kids are arrested only to spend the rest of their lives appealing. The dead children don't get appeals and neither should their killers. I oppose death penalty until it comes to children, then it's hang em high!
It’s so sad, you can see what the frustration has done to her father. He aged like 20 years..
Definitely the mother knows something and when the truth be told, she should get jail time, too.
Yes the poor father aged so much. He had the light of his life taken away by a selfish lying pedaphile. Sadly stupid mothers never listen to their own children and put their boyfriends first. And to make it even worse her dad knew all along that the mother’s boyfriend killed his beautiful daughter.
@@autumn.melody1715 exactly. It wouldn't surprise me if this was just like Paul and Karla. The Mom wanted to please Shawn at the expense of her beautiful Daughter.
Before they even said anything about anxiety medication I was like why are the mom and step dad so emotionally void and detached. It was crazy to me. Your daughter is missing and you're acting flippant.
He literally told them her body was in Scurry county when they did his polygraph test! Where do they find her body? Scurry county! How are all these little things not pieced together?
He quit his job and was signing up for unemployment benefits within 30min??? Yeah okay sure
Then head to mommy's for an alibi.
🙄
Instant click yall. Cheers for a sorely underrated channel. 🤘😉🍻
Please give update on the hearing and sentencing. The story is heart wrenching. Thanks for all your work. The way narrate the stories is really commendable.
You do a great job setting up these stories.
Hailey and her brother looks so removed and distant in the picture with their mom and her boyfriend.
