When Valerie Reyes called her mother to share her fears of being murdered, Valerie had no idea it would actually happen later that very same day.

And a big thank you to you folks, for watching my videos and supporting us content creators. 🙏 what are your thoughts on this case? Was justice really served with his sentence?
beautiful job on this one, my friend. blessings from South Florida
Wow thanks for the Ad!! I too have trouble keeping the same old smell for to long..I’ll be sure to try this
I joined. Thanks!

Is it ok to see you drink coffee while making a video 😉
The fact that he got a rental car and put his phone on airplane mode before entering her house shows that it was premeditated. ANY premeditated murder should be life without parole.
It reminded me of Jodi Arias.
Yup
@@mightyseagoat6874 yes
looks like the sentence is so mild because they struck a plea deal for a confession. he confessed to kidnapping but not murder. maybe her family lacked the funds to pursue a murder conviction but this seems a miscarriage of justice to give her killer such a mild sentence and avoid first degree murder conviction.
Premeditated, but still a crime of passion. It's not that simple. Looks like a crime of passion with some opportunistic, petty elements thrown in afterwards.
The thought that Valerie was possibly still alive in that suitcase is horrifying! What a monster this guy is.
Oh she was definitely still alive. This is truly horrible… this guy should be buried alive. Or at least spend the rest of his miserable life in prison not 30 years…
Yeap
It's the worst possible thing ever besides falling face-first down a tube that gets smaller as it goes down
literally 💔
she was still alive in that suitcase..I hope that she was unconscious from the head trauma
Am I the only person who, if told by a friend or loved one that they didn’t feel safe home alone, would insist on seeing them? Either crash there for the night or have them come over.
Same with night shifts. If an employee told me they didn’t feel safe one night, I’m out the door before I hang up the phone.
Not meaning to put blame on anyone, it’s just I couldn’t even imagine having someone tell me they felt paranoid and unsafe and just saying “good night” and hanging up.
Yeah! I would think her brothers would've been sent over to get her and take her out of there. Not sure how old they are though. Her father with an uncle or friend?
My Mum does this - I live alone and I'm 25, have mental illnesses and came out of an abusive relationship a few years ago and If I had called my Mum and told her I feel unsafe, worried, paranoid or in danger she would basically beg me to come over or she would find someway of having somebody with me, then again she's a bit of a helicopter parent lol
Wise decisions..kudos
Right, I absolutely agree with your comment.
I'm someone who suffers with anxiety and paranoia like Valerie did, and I think a lot of my friends and family would do the same thing as hers. I could be making a drive that I've done a thousand times before, then suddenly get hit with the feeling that I'm _definitely_ going to get into a crash and die that day... I'm practically convinced that the universe itself is telling me to prepare for my inevitable death, and well, I'm still alive. Talking on the phone or keeping a consistent conversation going over text until I say goodbye/goodnight is exactly how the people in my life deal with my anxiety.
I've told my wife multiple times, if she ever has a bad feeling about someone or something, to immediately call me and I'll walk her though what to do. We've discussed and practiced some things like break ins and stuff, but even if she can't put it into words, I want her to listen to herself. The subconscious is so fast at analyzing input that the conscious doesnt have time to notice. I have told her I will never judge or second guess her if she is worried. I dropped everything one day 2 years ago, came home from work early, and then that night our car was broken into so I know it's not just that she's paranoid. She might have seen someone walking by hours earlier a little too slow and not made a connection consciously. Regardless, we take those instincts seriously in my house.
Everyone should.
That is really good wisdom, “ The subconscious is so fast at analyzing input that the conscious doesn’t have time to notice.” If women would understand this and take heed. I for one sure is! Thank you
Smart. We never doubt an animal’s instincts but we question our own.
yes and also first impressions when meeting someone new.
Yeah it's good to trust your instincts in order to be safe, but you also don't want to be so worried all the time that you're paranoid every time the wind blows. It's more about being aware of what is happening around you than anything else.
I am from Venezuela and this case has never been heard of here, it is incredible that despite having the opportunity to live in the USA and make a better life for him, he would decide to end someone else's Life. 30 years in prison is not enough for what he did
Most likely he will be deported when his time is up straight to Venezuela
I'm old school at 32 and I feel like if it has been proven 100% evil people like this deserve the death penalty
How are things over there in Venezuela ? Still bad ?
@@physiobr9227 perpetually worse and worsening I'm sad to report.
@@davidperez5089 I am sorry to know about it, I am from Brazil and it amazes me when I know there are venezuelans coming to Brazil looking for better life since it is going bad here aswell, so makes me wonder how much different it is
I shudder to imagine the last moments of Valarie, beaten & trapped in a suitcase, slowly suffocating to death. The senselessness of this crime is astounding, & the cruelty harrowing. Her words only a few hours before her death were prophetic. She deserved to live her life happily and not become a victim of a dumb, evil monster. RIP Valarie!
I have to tell this story my grandfather was in the hospital with a urinary tract infection the doctor came in one morning and granddad told the doctor I'm going to die the doctor said no your not I'm right here your in a hospital your not going to die. And then the doctor asked if you do have an emergency do you want to be revived? He said no let me go the doctor looked down to write that he was a DNR When he finished he looked up from his paperwork and he was dead.
The doctor said in his 30 years of practicing medicine he's never experienced something like that. True story
@Ashley Bourgeois thank you that's very kind of you too say
@Ashley Bourgeois he was an amazing man and is missed dearly he lived life on his terms and in the end he died on his terms feels good to be able to talk about him.
You hear the story about the chick that zipped her boyfriend in a suitcase in a drunken rage? She videotaped him calling out for her and flipping the suitcase around. She didn’t even remember in the morning when she woke up and called 911. You can listen to the 911 call and view a few of the videos
@@pineapplesyumyum Suffocation (or drowning) is the absolute worst way to go. Strangulation does limit blood supply so it's quicker (although takes SEVERAL minutes). But suffocation can take many hours and with each passing minute our bodies cry out for more oxygen which never comes. According to experts who study fear, this is causes the most potent anxiety that we can feel. Period.
If murder isn't bad enough, suffocation or drowning has to be the worst death imaginable and that's saying a lot.
The fact that she had that strong intuition it really hurts me to know she knew what was going to happen. And to think that she was alive when he discarded her like that… sickening. Rest easy Valerie 🤍
wow if she liked to F new guys every month why would she also date them? never date your hook ups its a recipe for disaster... also if a girl has more tattoos than you it probably means she gets around so dont feel bad when you catch her "fing the guy next door" like this guy did
I think she suspected something after he walked in on her and the neighbour going at it 4 days after the break up, probably knew he was mad...lol...couldn't exactly tell her mom.
She knew she efed up her life bc of wrong choices. Simple
@@GeorgiosD90 Wrong choices? Like having a boyfriend and breaking up with him? So are we supposed to just lock ourselves in a room and interact with no one? Cause that is the only way to be safe. Strangers kill strangers, lovers kill lovers, mothers kill children, children kill mothers, it's nobody's fault or wrong choice but the killer themselves.
@@beyondfaking What you can do is avoid the idiots, dont surround yourself with bad people to the point you know you are not safe, if you are not safe go to the police and talk to your parents. Also dont sleep with your neighbors while your ex can enter your room.
The photo of him with electronics he bought by murdering Valerie is gross.
30 years is unjust. He'll have the chance to taste freedom again & that's gross too
30 years is not enough. He should never be allowed out again after basically putting her in a suitcase alive to slowly die. It would be like being buried alive. No he should never walk free. It is sad she reached out saying she was scared and no one didn't get her help. She had a feeling something was up and reached out. Such a sad case.
Her mom tried to get more information about why she was feeling afraid & thinking she may be harmed & she wouldn't tell her. It's not like her mom just brushed it off & didn't try. She reassured her mom that everything was fine. You can't help somebody if they won't tell you the problem. It's tragic but not their fault. I'm just curious as to what you think they should have done because from what I can see there really wasn't anything they could have done differently except maybe push her even more to tell them why she felt that way & even then that doesn't mean she would have done so.
She wasn't 30.
@@QuanLovesGaming I think they mean 30 years behind bars
@@QuanLovesGaming No that was the time he got in jail 30 years for taking a life.
i think we know that. The commenter was saying that the 30 year prison sentence wasn't enough punishment for the crimes committed.
I think that anyone who purposely commits a homicide should deserve life, nothing more - nothing less.
honestly, I feel they deserve death. they deserve the same demise they inflict upon their victims...
Death penalty
I’m sorry but they deserve the death penalty, nothing more - nothing less.
why do they even deserve free room, 3 meals daily, free healthcare paid by hard working innocent tax payers?
you deserve life for that pic
The guy who took a picture of her body, and then sent that image to his friends, needs to be investigated. Anyone who would do something so repugnant... has been in that situation before. You know what I'm trying to say. That's not just immaturity, or sadism... it's worse than that.
People are desensitized today. You can find tons gruesome pictures/videos on google with just a few clicks, and things much worse. Taking a picture of a body isn't enough to say someone's been in a "similar situation".
Yes that is so weird why would anyone do that??😳😳😳
He wanted other people to share in the shock he just witnessed. Human behaviour can be strange.
@@EvilKris i mean, sharing completely disrespectful photos of a dead body to your friends is absolutely the sign of a sicko. maybe not murderer type sicko but definitely sick and rude at the very least
@@EvilKris there’s really no difference between those things in my eyes. i understand everyone’s different but my knee jerk reaction to seeing a dead person would be to immediately remove it from my eyesight. i couldn’t imagine lurking around to take a picture of them to then send to my drinking buddies.
The huge success of this channel is quite a testament to the talent and charisma of its host. What a great job you’re doing.
I absolutely agree Ginger !!! Adrians personality is 👍😁
I think it’s more artistry than charisma
@@elizabeth-ty3he well,maybe both.
his voice and presentation are so relaxing, like a true crime guided meditation or something. Its a true crime ASMR
He appears to be humble. A real man in my book.
I feel physically sick thinking about her suffering, I can't imagine how scary that would be 😔 she deserved so much more. 30 years just isn't enough 😢
Terrible.
30 years is a good amount
@@paulwoodford1984 for a bourbon, sure. Not for a human life senselessly taken before having the chance to actually enjoy her life. Now go away for 30 years and come back only once you’ve discovered how to properly troll or use wit and intelligence to give a brutal story a bit of levity… you haven’t displayed the ability to do either, so 30 years sounds about right to practice by yourself.
@@JME1186 You’re very unreasonable. 30 years is his peak years gone. That sucks. He might get parole after 20 if he’s lucky
Actually this is one of the cases I am happy it's not a life in prison. He will get deported to his country, which is in a horrible state, with practically nothing to his name. It is bad enough to return to the society from a lengthy prison sentence (or a prison sentence at all), imagine that with him having no money, no contacts, nothing. The rest of his life will be dogshit.
He must of shown up at her house previously or been stalking her at work for her to get such a strong sense of unease, poor girl and may you rest in peace Valerie
She didn't want to tell her mother that this guy was stalking her, because she didn't want to make her mother worry.
30 years is definitely not enough for such a horrendous crime.
I know many will disagree with me...I truly think if you take someones life, and its proven intentional, you deserve no less then solidarity confinement 23 hours a day, or the death penalty.
@@yourheartsdesire6308 I totally agree.
Valerie Reyes’s family lost her forever so he should also be gone forever.
@@yourheartsdesire6308 Totally agree ,and also replace tests on pets and rats with murderers as subjects
What would you like his sentence to be? I'd be cool with hanging.
"I didn't call police because I thought they would blame me..." yet putting her in a suitcase, burying her and taking money out of her account didn't register in his head that it would make him looking even more suspicious?! The audacity of people to tell such stories as if anyone would believe them...
It's so awful that she somehow knew something bad was going to happen to her. Even more heartbreaking that she reached out to people and no one helped her... I can't imagine the terror that she must have felt in her final moments, giving up hope that she would ever see the outside of that suitcase as she slowly died.
He didn't call the cops because he would of yes been arrested but then deported
I swear some people get brain rot when caught doing something suspicious or criminally suspicious
He was just blabbing it was a premeditated murder.
Electric chair is the answer to his evil behavior
this is still so eerie to me how strong of a gut feeling she had, if only she'd listened to that. we really need to trust our instincts more...
True talk
There is no "prophetic"! Prophecy cannot be quantified. She had a jealous boyfriend whom she knew could murder her one day. The count down was when she alleges slept with that other guy in his bed, she that's the final straw.
Que Estes con dios muneca' la vida puede ser corta,pero El amor de dios y de tu familia vivira para siempre' this case made mi so sad ,her gut feeling was speaking to her 😢 beautiful girl just r.i.p with the angels ❤ carolina
taking a picture of a dead body and sending it to people should be a crime itself and that worker should have been charged with something relating to that
yeah unless it's for official research.
I believe it is a crime but 🤷♀️ I'm not sure, it may depend on individual counties or states. But, I agree 👍 it definitely should be a crime.
Imagine seeing a dead body and thinking "Oh, let me just take a picture to send to the boys quick before reporting this!" I seriously do not understand the thought process of people sometimes. So many people that just cannot control themselves.
Yep! I would be too shocked and throwing up or calling the cops to even think about taking a photo.
Thanx Adrian for another great video. I love how u make the video more about the victim than the monster that killed her. She was such a beautiful women my heart goes out to her family x
Thank you!!
When people say “i’m afraid someone is going to k i l l me or something bad will happen to me” parents should immediately know that their child is involved with someone or something dangerous and they’re in danger, this doesn’t come from nothing
Not if they suffer with severe anxiety/paranoia tbh. I've had many anxiety attacks regarding numerous fears including death and never been involved with bad people. All parents can do is ask important questions about their kids safety and try to calm them down.
It's a difficult situation. Having an anxiety disorder myself, I've worked hard to discern between illogical reactions that stem from my disorder and instinct that's telling me I'm in a dangerous situation. That's after years of CBT and reading about the biological underpinnings of my disorder though. It's hard to know your own reactions when you have chronic anxiety, let alone someone else knowing. It's all very subjective depending on what the anxiety sufferers specific triggers are too. I'm just saying it's not that simple.
I think someone is going to kill me everyday.
This is factually incorrect. There are many disorders that can cause this thinking that have nothing to do with people or present danger. I don't know why people talk about things as if they are an authority when they have literally no idea what they're talking about.
I agree ! 💯 He was obviously beating her and was nasty to her during their relationship . She knew what he was capable of.
Anyone that finds a suitcase with a body inside and their first thought is to take a picture…I’d be staying away from him. There’s something not right with that person. Very sad story. I hope the family will find some measure of peace.
Yeah that is really sick
Hey... i lost my job for doing that... isnt that punishment enough?
@@nickyblue4866 No, it isn't. Something similar happened to a girl in a car accident and people started sending the photos to her family as pranks. wtf is wrong with you? joking or not.
@@gothamsmostwantedclownbitc7107 or the case where they found the 2 girls dead in the woods and the officers took pictures and sent them to a group chat calling them dead angles or fairy’s…I honeslty hope there’s a place for people like you in the afterlife..I’m not one to judge and I make mistakes but I do know right from wrong and feel empathy…have some common decency for the victims and there family’s. What if it was someone you knew, one of your sisters, close friends nieces, daughters or wife??
No different then filming george floyds arrest.
Except those people got awards.
A few years back I had a premonition that had me shivering and cold sweats that if I met my friend at the bar that night (Halloween) I wasn’t ever coming home. I used to walk by myself 6 blocks it was a short walk, but it was always uneasy. After this I started meeting her less and less and it was so severe, I actually haven’t celebrated Halloween or gone out for Halloween in 6 or 7 years.
I don’t understand if she had this premonition why she didn’t go to her moms, or double down on the security and refuse to answer the door. Not that it’s hard to ignore an ex who is pounding on your door, I’ve been there too. I just wish she had gone to her moms and wasn’t home at all 😢
His greatest mistake wasn't going to the ATM machine.
His greatest mistake was murdering Valerie.
Being an illegal immigrant
@@haydensmith5718 wanting to escape a shitty country to foreign one, is one thing, but then brutally murdering an EX is a complete level of mistake
@@TheEnabledDisabled but the fact he was not willing to try a legal way of staying in the US speaks to his character as well.
@@bumblebee4252 yeah with the context of the horrible murder of his ex, yes
@@TheEnabledDisabled no problem with seeking asylum, do legally like everyone else
Breaking up with a controlling boyfriend (or husband) is actually the most dangerous time for women, it can tip unstable, violent men over the edge into murder
100%. Abusers kill. Highest risk period is as you said.
That statement would remain true ungendered.
@@mrsullied Stop. There’s nothing wrong with the OP’s statement.
@@alphabettown04 spew your hate elsewhere
You dont need to even break up. Some man they have a huge issue with rejection.
A guy asked me on a date once and I simply didnt wanna date him.
I told him I was dating somebody else which was true ( my husband now).
He didnt believe me and started sending me messages saying that he will kill himself because of me and that I will be responsible for his death.
After so mamy creepy messages he showed up at my place amd started to scream " its over its oveer"on my window.
I never had even a close friendship with him I just knew him from my yoga class.
I was very polite and respectfull to him always.
Everytime he would ask me on a date I would simply politely explain that I was comited to somebody else. I never treated him badly in any way I just didnt wanna go for dinner with him.
I ended up moving to a diferent house because I didnt feel save there.
Maybe I was just paranoid after what happened.
One day I checked his insta to make sure he doesnt live in my same villatge anymore.
I saw he is teaching stuff about how to be an " alpha male" and hate woman basically.
If a person is a bit mentally sick or have huge mother issues it doesnt matter how do you interact with that person.
Even just by going to the same class they may go for you, sadly
him even selling her things and spending over $5000 of her money shows his first story was a load of rubbish. rip valerie😞
He needs more than 30 years. That poor woman suffered in there helpless knowing she was going to die and no one knew where she was to save her. He’s an unfeeling monster.
while hes withdrawing her money buying things then putting photos of it all up on social media, good chance he tries to do similar once he is out and he will only be in his early 50s.
@@MusMasi He will get deported when he gets out. And also he will spend his prime years in prison.
she suffered fron new D every month syndrome its where you physically cant go more than 1 month with 1 D and one of her hook ups got attached thats why having so many skeletons in your closet will always bite you back in the end...
@@fyoutubefyoutube6927 So, do you go one month without a p?? Smh. A typical hypocrite.
@@MusMasi I can't get over the fact he will be in his 50s walking out. If this happened in TX, he would have got nothing but life.
It could be this was a backed up court system, a family that didn't want to go through a trial, etc. But I'm still baffled at only 30 years for what in my mind was torture on top of murder and kidnapping.
wow if she liked to F new guys every month why would she also date them? never date your hook ups its a recipe for disaster... also if a girl has more tattoos than you it probably means she gets around so dont feel bad when you catch her "fing the guy next door" like this guy did
It is likely to be a plea deal. Plead guilty to a lesser charge and serve time and end the trial sooner or it would go to murder trial and likely get a harsher sentence after who knows how long it would take. A lengthy and costly trial for a non-US citizen. Probably wanted to get it done and over he serve time and gets kicked out.
Yes and considering that life span is increasing, 30 years is a pittance. Should have been life without parole.
@@krampusklaws2238 that makes sense to me that he got less because of something like that. I definitely wish he got life though.
I'm always baffled when I compare cases like the hiccup girl Jennifer mee, to cases like this.
I can't remember, but I feel like she denied a plea deal, and ended up getting life without parole.
She didn't actually kill anyone. She did set someone up to get robbed though, who ended up being killed. Since she lives in Florida she got charged the same as the robbers/shooters.
Apparently he was only charged with kidnapping...:DA SILVA, 25, pled guilty to one count of kidnapping. " Don't know why he wasn't charged with at least criminally negligent homicide, but found this online also .... "A Department of Justice spokesman confirmed that they are “working to find a resolution of the case without a trial.” The murder charge against da Silva means he could get the death penalty or life in prison. It seems likely that any deal would mean the death penalty is off the table." Generally speaking, I think before they do plea deals like this they consult with the family first.
She was still ALIVE in the suitcase wtf omg. Sometimes i think the universe puts these videos in front of me because my problems are so trivial and im so ungrateful for my life. I never for a second think something like this cant happen to me. I think news like these are not all in vain because its saving the lives of others who view them. I will try to love and appreciate my life daily for those who are not here 😢
Always strange to say, when the channel covers such tragic events, but I genuinely enjoy and look forward to every upload. So well researched, scripted and edited. Always so respectful of the victims. While I never feel particularly better after learning about these cases, I appreciate every time I see a new video.
Thank you for your hard work as always, and hope you're feeling better Adrian :)
Yeah I have questioned that about myself as well but it's not that we're looking forward to this death of these people; it's more like we're just listening to let their story be told. And it's best when there's a great person to tell that story.
It's always heartbreaking to hear that these bright and beautiful people become victims of such low-lifes. Sorry to use that label but sometimes there's nothing more accurate.
@@suzannenichols6900 That's a really good point, and also a big BIG reason why I love Coffeehouse for it- he tells us about the victims, who they were, and not just the circumstances around their deaths. They mattered more than that, and I love that he speaks about them that way. At least we learn about these people, and we can remember them moving forwards, even if the reason why isn't pleasant :)
@@Danigoddamnit me second this. This is the reason why I like Coffeehouse Crime so much.
The cruelty he inflicted on Valerie deserved a lengthy prison sentence. I’m appalled how callously and casually he flaunted the electronics purchased by her money. What a sad excuse for an existence.
My condolences to her family.
Have to say, my blood ran cold hearing the name of my hometown. I live in Europe now but my best friend knew the victim’s cousin. RIP, Valarie 💔
Mine too. I can't recall any murders from when I lived there.
Valerie’s intuition was spot on which is scary. The thought of her being alive still in the suitcase and slowly suffering is just cruel and terrifying. She was a beautiful girl who had a sweet face and had her whole life ahead of her. This evil pos, deserves life in prison along with the prisoners taking care of him. 30 years? You take a life you should get life what he did was evil, why should he get a second chance when she’s gone because of him. Rest In Peace sweet girl so sorry this happened to you 🙏♥️
Sorry that Valerie lived with these awful feelings.
I do sometimes as well, depends on the part of town I’m in though
🙏😢
I'm really sorry, too! Honestly, I'm pissed that her mother tried to "calm" that fear and got off the phone with her. Something is not right about that! As a mother, I would have IMMEDIATELY told my child to come to me or I would have been on my way to get them. THEN, we could talk/hug/rest together. No freakin way I'm getting off the phone and my child feels that kind of angst and horror about being murdered!!!! 😡😑
Not really? She banged some dude 3 days earlier and the had no worries til the day of?
@@greendude0420 not racist at all...
Seeing the live rain on the window behind you, I realized this was an actual coffee shop. Considering it's overall look...including in-house kitty...makes me wish I could go there for real. Thank you for the continued respectful but insightful storytelling.
A friend of mine lives in Greenwich, and I remember her posting about the body found in the suitcase and the police investigation in town. When I clicked on this video, I had no idea that it was about that case. This is a true tragedy; by all accounts Ms. Reyes was a good person and in no way deserved what happened to her. It's a shame that people exist who could commit such a heinous act.
I remember when this sad event took place and how it was all that New Rochelle was talking about and why did this is happened to her. I didn’t know her personally, but some of my old high school friends did. She was a very sweet and nice person when we did interact back in high school all those years ago. She didn’t deserve for that to happen to her and I hope he lives with that regret for the rest of his life.
I live in the Bronx and I have never heard of this horrific case. I can't believe this happened to such a beautiful person. Her poor family must be so devastated. R.i.p Valerie.
What a surprise. Another illegal killed someone. Who’d a thunk it!! The worst part is, he will be out in less then 15 years and ready to kill again!!
@@eltinand1321 right? I'm from Flushing, and it took a CZcamsr from the UK to bring this story to us years later. She deserved more coverage and awareness of her story.
As someone who's grandma was murdered I always feel terrible for the families of the victims. It's something I would not have anyone to have to go thru
Sorry to hear. What happened to your grandma :(
I’ve been binge watching this channel for the past few days, I love the way you talk about these cases and how respectful you are.
I don't know if I'm being cruel but if my daughter told me that she was in sheer fear for her life, i would leave anything I'm doing in that instant and run to her to be there or take her home with me.
Not blaming the mom here. The only one to blame is that monster who took her life and money. But idk, if my daughter called me in such situation I'll definitely wouldn't let her spend the night alone feeling that way.
This 100%
Ikr. Even if u thought it was nothin n they are jus bein paranoid or didn't believe em for some reason. I'd still drop everything n go to them straight away to pick them up to be with u,or stay with her n be by their side to make em feel safe anyways. N even if they said it's alright.
Yup 💯
I would certainly*offer* a refuge or company. Unless your offspring have been constant 'drama queens'-, always exaggerating and making up stories, you listen and help!!
Even knowing that it ended badly, I was thinking “go stay with your mom, go stay with your mom,” like time could be rewound. Poor girl, so much promise, cut short and unfulfilled.
RIP Valerie Reyes.🥀
Her murderer should never be let out of jail. To think he'll be deported doesn't really give me any comfort. To release this murderer to walk freely in ANY country is mortifying! He seriously injured Valerie and then stuffed her - still alive! - into the suitcase! Poor thing, she suffered a terrifying death!
Thanks for yet another well-researched story. You have a great way of putting a story together.
Heartbreaking case … I can’t understand the evil masked under the smiles and facade of ppl who pretend to love you.
Inadequate thinking pattern that could have been catched by any psychologist.
@Augusto Pinochet crime of passion... So common unfortunately.
Man, hearing she suffered from anxiety and depression really hit home. Crazy how it’s so many of us do. I’ve been struggling with that since I was a child and even with medication and therapy for years, I still struggle with them. I’m so sorry for what happened to this beautiful young lady…
I also battle anxiety and cannabis in a indica strand as well as clonazapam has changed my life. it takes the anxiety away and I can breath and stop the constant worry.
all these young people now adays say they have anxiety and depression like its a cool thing ...what she really suffered from was too much dick she had a new dick every month....

I love how you provide further info like the court docs and your opinion on that. It gives us an insight into something we don’t have access to.
I lived in the same town as this and her brother did one of my tattoos it’s prolly the saddest thing to happen around here in awhile
as always you're incredible! I love actually drinking my coffee while listening to you share these stories. I also love how the window has different weather and day or night in each video. my heart goes out to Valerie's family. the loss of a child, sibling, friend is crushing.
Hello nicy
@@jonclark7012 hello
@@Queenofsarrow you are beautiful dear hope we can be friends
@@jonclark7012 thank you, I actually am married
I thought there wouldn't be a more appalling case...this tops it for sure. What Javier did was sad and apathetic. He deserves to be in prison for the rest of his life.😠
😡😡😡😡
That guy who took her picture while in the suitcase should've gotten a bigger punishment that losing his job!! He should've went to jail! And no 30 years is ridiculous!! Life !!!
Love your channel, Adrian.
RIP to Valerie.
Thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends.
Be careful ladies, there will be tons of guys out there looking for love for all the wrong reasons, they will be needing money, places to live, its going to get bad folks, real bad.
I've met a few in my time, though always had a good nose for them and send them immediately on their merry way.
Yeah, the ones looking for true love are in their friendzone
@@midnightprizm1583 the ones in her friend zone are there for a reason. there's a reason women won't date men like you and it's likely cause you're not actually nice guys. Nice people don't do nice things to get a payout. "nice guys" like you are doing it to get a crack at our cracks.
Buzz dude
@devonjohnston6570 did I ever state that I women won't date me? Always assuming we are unsuccessful just because we say anything, even remotely negative towards women. Ever make an observation? That's what I did. It is common knowledge women friendzone a lot of good guys and yet have nothing but complaints against the men they choose to date. It doesn't take rocket science to deduct that they simply make horrible choices. Yes, there are horrible guys pretending to be nice. But those are very small percentages. Most men are just average, but that's not good enough these days due to the abundance of options women have. We as humans will inherently choose the best options. Never said anything wrong with that. I'm simply saying that since most of the time they choose these men, then they simply have to love with the consequences of their poor decisions. But go ahead and make this personal and all about me. Ha. Too many women on this planet for that to ever be a real issue if you are simply willing to broaden your scope as a man
oh no. honest?
Been watching this channel for months, first time I've seen a local case. Not just 20 minutes from me... to say this hits a little too close to home is an understatement. EDIT: Just finished watching. Seeing so many local spots and places I've gone, like the Barnes & Noble I frequent -- where Valerie worked... so eerie and heartbreaking.
It was The Twin Lakes that got me.
Always breaks my heart when an artist with anxiety and depression passes. We will carry the torch for you. Girl. Im so sorry.
As if her depression and anxiety are all she was. She should be remembered as a bright, smart girl who brought joy to lives of others. If it were up to me I would ban the use of words anxiety and depression unless it's medically confirmed.
Always breaks my heart when a woman with anxiety, depression, herpes, and dermatitis dies. Other than that I'm quite okay.
@@MarioGoatse yeah ….this comment is strange
@@Candicedickinsonllc That’s entirely the point. My comment was a satirical version of the theirs. I’m exaggerating it to expose how ridiculous it is to only feel empathy, or feel more empathy, when an artist with anxiety and depression dies. It’s a very strange way to reduce someone down to their mental illness and their hobby as if they’re just a character whose traits you identify with.
i see you, op, making Valerie’s death about yourself. like hello most artists have anxiety and depression. most young people have anxiety and depression. we are talking about the victim’s case here. weird comment masked as sympathy.
This case really hit home for me. I am deeply saddened that he only got 30 years. He is an absolute monster.
I feel absolutely awful today I've been at work while not well all day and just got home and get to watch this straight away thanks for the great videos keep up the good work
Damn what shift do you work or what time is it where you are as it was noon here in Louisville, KY when you posted this.
@@CrimeAllTheTime did you not know the entire world is not the US? Why act so surprised that is so ignorant.
@@CrimeAllTheTime people live in different countries lmao
@@michaelt1102 and she asked her what time it was where she was at… do you understand English?
@@michaelt1102 that's exactly why I asked where she was located and referenced my location, said nothing about people can't live in other countries 😂🤦🏻♀️
Rest in peace Valerie 🕊🌻
Prayers for your family and friends
Smh.. 30 yrs is definitely not enough
I will never understand how killing another person could amount to anything less than a life sentence or death penalty… WTF do you mean parole?!
Thank you for showing so much respect for the victims and their families. It's very easy to see how much work and effort you put into these videos, and I very much look forward to seeing them. I've been in therapy for the past 24 years trying to deal with paranoia, PTSD and anxiety and bipolar disorder, so this one hits a little closer to home.
You're so strong for committing to therapy for so long and getting help. I deal w/ PTSD as well and I know how intense it can be to work on. Sending the absolute best vibes your way (:
@@duerremueller3609 I hope you find your path to peace with yourself and peace with what you went through, and I wish you nothing but the best that life has to offer. Stay strong, you are NOT alone.
I pray we overcome the things we battle with daily❤ I suffer from severe ptsd, major depressive disorder, a bipolar disorder and severe anxiety with insomnia. It's not an easy battle but one day at a time
Adrian, I’d just like to say that you’ve gotten so good at telling stories and your presentation is so good! I’ve been watching for a year and from the first video to now I’m just blown away! Keep up the awesome job and I can’t wait for the new uploads ♥️
I just love ❤️ the steam from teapot 🫖in the background. Keep up the awesome work friend.
It's not really strange to like how someone smells. Our sense of smell is one of the first memories that we make as a individual. Perfect example, you remember the smell of your mother. You instinctively know her smell. That's how you know who your mother is before you even see her because you've learned her scent. Not sure if most people know this, but when we're first born and for like I think weeks afterwards or eyesight's pretty horrible considering we've never had to genuinely use it before. So a child will actually learn its mother by her smell and her voice before it will her appearance. I remember a lot of my ex-girlfriends by the perfumes that they would wear and I remember my wife by the scent of her shampoo. Not that she's passed away or gone or anything. I just smell certain sense sometimes and her image springs to mind
Yes, nothing strange about this, but naturally, it just carries a creepy vibe when you know the person is a murderer.
CHEERS mr Adrian, i appreciate the post right on time! have a blessed day and i hope the family is doing well ! have a beautiful day !!
Omg are u flirting with my man????
@@lisavanderpump7475 why yes, yes i am
@@SchoobieDoo let's tag team him and take turns !! We can share hunny!!
@@lisavanderpump7475 ….. woah
Ugh I remember this case .. I felt so bad for her mother when it came out what happened. The POS employee who thought it was cool to take and send pictures of her dead body .. That lingering guilt she doesn’t deserve , none of it. To discard her in a suitcase was just that much worse😮💨 I remember them finding her a few towns over and it was just so upsetting, disturbing especially hearing about the worker who came across her ..
need to pass a law making it illegal to photograph and disseminate pics of a dead person
I have to admit this was the first sponsor I’ve heard that made my ears pop up. Love from the UK bud, I hope you’ve enjoyed growing up here 🙏🏼
I can't imagine being closed in a suitcase alive.... really terrifying!!!! A lazy evil creep who didn't want to work for his own money took her life.
May she RIP!!
A woman did this to her boyfriend as well. She locked him in under the guise of hide & seek and he suffocated. The case is on youtube.
Ikr. I swear,how can u take someones life jus for money man. Like,even if u were desperate n needed it really bad for some reason. Rob em if u gonna rob. As f'd up as that is,cause people work so hard for their money too. It's so messed up aye. Especially the guys that murder jus for S E x. It's jus so hard to fathom how any1 could jus R A P E a stranger n kill en jus for that reason. Sick in the head man. I swear,people like that should get death penalty no matter what I reckon n we should rid the world of every single one of them. Sori that was long
Yea, JCS covered it
Yea JCS covered that case
@@Karmadeezy echo
Jesus CHRIST.. just realized this channel is only 1 ½ years old and gave over 1 million subscribers.. that is actually VERY impressive.. you obviously found the right recipe from day 1 😀 excellent work!
I hope you can rest in peace Valerie you’re a bright light taken too soon
my condolences to the family of a beautiful young lady... 🙏
Sometimes the gut feeling is what you have to listen to. My condolances to family and friends of Valerie. Stay safe people.
Very true
I was working right down the street. I’m a dog walker and saw all the police activity. Later overheard that one of the town workers took a photo of Valerie and sent it to his friends. Also just a side note it’s very strange how he got there it’s a very odd place to go because it’s not close to a highway really he had to know Greenwich to know that spot.
The saddest part is, he didn’t even know her that long or together that long!!! That just shows how great of a person Valerie is… to make a crazy man fall in love with her in such a short period of time to do that to her when he gets his heart broken. & that just shows how freakin crazy he is! Like dude you wasn’t even with her for years… it was jus a short little time! Like why???? She’s so beautiful & im happy she got justice but I wish he can rot in there forever !
My heart's breaking for Valerie and her family. Javier's a waste of space. What a vile human being.
Don’t let your heart break for a female that was committing fornication I mean you can’t mess with somebody’s heart and it’s not wise to screw the guy on your ex-boyfriend‘s bed. She was a dirty girl she had no respect for herself. Your heart needs to break for children all over the world that are being murdered and some that are dying from cancer and starvation let your heart break for them millions of them
You did an amazing job with this video. You really helped shine a spotlight on this girl and her plight. I really appreciate that, and you. 🙏
The fact this is my home town… that I know her and everything is so messed up.. but also I’m so happy that her story is shared and her family is felt for
My hometown too. I am so sorry for your loss.
This guy contacted me on Facebook, he lived a few blocks away from me, my father is from Venezuela and he wanted to get together, thank God it never happend.
I love watching crime stories and I am picky when it comes to how the stories are narrated. The very first video I watched from your channel got me hooked and I automatically subscribed. You are not only great at what you do, but you show compassion for the victims and their families. Thank you for being an awesome human being and an amazing narrator. I hope you kicked COVIDs behind 👊 😁
so I'm actually from New Rochelle and my Uncle actually knew Valerie and her family. I don't know all the details but he gave as much info as he could to the police, and when she was found out to be found dead in the suitcase it really affected him badly. I remember seeing the news report and my family immediately called my uncle he was deeply distraught by it.
Thank you so much for covering the tragic loss of Valerie. I wish she never went on a dating site. I wish she did not answer the door. I wonder if this evil demon did this to women in Ven and got away with it. My deepest condolences to my fellow new Yorkers who were friends and family especially Norma.
I've always wondered...he stole so much money from her. Is he responsible to repay that to her estate?
Thirty years usn't long enough. It seems no one ever serves an entire term. Sad story.
That's because prison sentences in the US are unusually long.
He deserves life without parole.
What is it with men who can’t take no for an answer??? No, she doesn’t want you, move the hell on, get over it. It’s truly pathetic. And the fact they are willing to risk spending their entire lives in prison just so that another man won’t get it, even more pathetic. My sincere condolences to this beautiful young lady’s family and friends. 🌻♥️
He killed her because she cheated on him with there neighbor....
@@mari_000 She didn't cheat, did you even listen? He sent a text to his current GF that said he found his "EX" sleeping in bed with the neighbor. They weren't dating anymore 🙄
@@mari_000Please don't spread false information and tarnish her name. She didn't cheat even if she did that's no excuse to murder somebody and shove them in a suitcase.
Yes, some men are just jealous piece of shit.. possessive.
Too bad the majority of crime cases had to do with women being murdered by men.
@@bluebree Exactly!
30 years is not near enough for the brutal way he killed her.
I love the grey cat detail in this new background. It might not be very hygienic to think of a cat sleeping that close to the coffee machine but I find myself always looking at it and appreciating it ❤️
My goodness! I've never seen that cat before 😁
Honestly it's such a cute cat I wouldn't mind as long as I don't find hair in my coffee 🤣
My cats are always on my counter lol.
Hey....l never noticed it before! Gorgeous! Went back for a good look...think l saw it,s ears twitching...is it real???????
Been watching your videos for the past week now and I just want to take a moment to say I appreciate your coverage of all this stuff.
Seriously, there’s actually a lot of cases you’ve covered that I’ve seen others do videos on, and you provide a lot of important information that they leave out.
Keep doing what you’re doing!
You are the gift that keeps giving. I don’t know what it is about the way you deliver the information. But it’s unbelievably hooking, and soothing. Thanks Adrien. Look after each other.
Adrian you are a Legend! Your thorough and accurate research and sensitivity to your subject matter warrants respect - I know Mr Ballen has a big following but I much prefer your style and professionalism. Greetings from Sydney Australia. 💗☮️🙏🐨🇦🇺
Can't get into ballen's style, love coffeehouse
Both channels are great! Each presenter is charismatic in their own way 😊
Hello Sandra lovely smile you have there
@@themonsterbrat Too true Rachel 💗
Adrian, I watch a lot of crime videos (I'm a retired therapist who worked primarily with parolees, and probationers.) I just wanted to let you know that I like yours best. You give a pleasant presentation, alone with many interesting facts about the cases. Thank you.
Thank you for uploading more than just once per week, love the content
I don't get how he could do something so heartless to her, I can't even imagine how she felt being left there like that.
She was nervous and afraid because of her ex but she didn't want to tell the mother.
Yup she sensed he was no good. He couldn't control her so he killed her
Your cat is so peaceful that I had to stare extra long and see her breathing to realize the kitty's actually sleeping not a still image haha. I love watching my animals sleep
Eh , I don't think the background is real....including the cat.
I read on one of the videos that it is digitally imposed (don't know if that is the correct terminology)... but it is a film clip of Adrian's real cat sleeping.😻
I love hearing my little cat snoring
there is something about true crime channels, especially this one, that is so much more superior to just reading or hearing about what happened...
thank you once again, adrian!!!
Adrian is such a nice guy. He's doing stories on complex and scary topics. He's so polite and nice.
Just a boring day but now I’m happy to say I’m watching my favorite creator on CZcams!! Thank you coffeehouse!!
Hey Adrian, you're awesome. Thanks for all you do.
I think what makes this so much more frightening is that she clearly had good intuition and she never suspected this guy was capable of it. When I hear cases like this I would always want to think if I was the victim I would get weird vibes from this guy off the bat but I think she may have thought the same…I guess you really never know
I love ❤️ this man. He has excellent stories and he speaks nice and clear.
Keep up the good work.
From Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺
If you choose to end another persons life, then you should pay with your own! Thank you for another video, your narration is brilliant, you throughly explain these horrific cases yet in a calm very professional manner. 🌹
Hello pebbles how are you doing
👍 an eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth.
love watching your channel grow. I was here in the begining and you deserve it. great at telling the stories and getting the voices of the victims out there. sending ❤ always
I see Coffeehouse Crime upload a new video, I click. Adrian, thank you for shedding light on these cases!
Dude i swear i've been here when you first started and i'm so glad i subscribed back then ... no regrets!!
Thank you for all the work you've been doing, Adrian. I see it, and I'm so appreciative!
