As always, thank you for watching, ‘cause I love ya! If you wanna see two true crime videos every week please subscribe!
❤ you too Mike. Your channel is my favorite. I've been catching up on all of your videos as I'm recovering from an accident.❤
you recount a tragic story as if you are telling a joke, your lack of knowledge about other cultures and your lack of empathy are really disappointing 😞 very annoyed by you and this video. Learn something from the coffee crime guy.
Love the blue cool print shoit..way to give it a geww...😁
@@OOceaneyess I hope you're okay 😢
@@elz808 Thank you so much. Taking it day by day.🌻
Eleven years for the dog.
If only America can be this strict with animal cruelty.
Go Greece!
Many countries don't even give 11 years to someone who has done away with a person. I am so glad Greece is doing that for animal cruelty
Thank qt least my country is doing for once something right
In doggy years, 11 is like 77 years… Which is basically a full life for a human. So this is kind of like life for a life
Trump made animal cruelty a federal crime here just 3 years ago, hopefully we're catching up. 🤞
@@kyradebruin9522 Yet America slaughters millions of animals every day.

Absolutely! When I was in high school I had 15-16 yr old friends that were dating guys up to 25! Ick 🤮.. I would always try to get across to there's got be a good reason they can't get a girl their own age.
@@deanlangworthy3311 These guys want to be in control and it's easier with someone so young as they're more like a father figure to these girls.
The fact Roxy got justice too. Delighted. 😊
I'm so loving the Greek Court system for not letting him get away with hurting that dog 🐕
I met my ex husband when I was 16 and he was 28. What did I learn? Predators! When a grown man chases after a little girl, it means he is a monster. I almost didn’t survive mine. He killed our family pets too. A man loving a child isn’t love, it’s a perverted sick and controlling pedophile abusing his victim. But boy do I know what she went through. I only wish I was there to help her get out.
I'm so sorry for what you want through, but thankful you survived. I suffered similarly. I wish you much happiness in your life. 💕💕💕
Big facts. When I was 14 I had a boyfriend that was 24. He made me engage in many acts I was scared to say no to. I went on to be molested multiple times by multiple grown men, Including uncle over the next couple years. It’s like predators can smell survivors to take advantage of. My husband of 11 years is only a year older than me now and it’s so clear that this relationship is so much more logical. It’s a red flag for me to see a much older man with a younger woman, I always wonder WHEN they started dated 9/10, it was when she was a child. Maybe not that often, but it gives me pause, nonetheless. It’s heartbreaking and I’m so sorry you too experienced this violation
Your comment will help any girl reading this to be aware ♥️🌻
Lol you learn that after you married him? Not a bright one huh? It's literally common sense.
@@charaznable8072 you comfortable up there on your high horse?
Go the Greeks for prosecuting him for killing his dog - very impressed! More countries should do this 🇳🇿🇳🇿
I agree
Pretty sure most civilized countries prosecute that. (Animal cruelty) it's a felony here. Ask Michael Vick
Yes! 11 years and 6 months for Roxie.
@@thevolatilitywhisperer7616 sure but animal cruelty should be punished much more harshly than it is in the US. It’s a slap on the wrist currently
Amen 👏
Hey! I'm representing the 0.1!
Fun fact: The Chief of Police Mr. Balaskas, during his press conference said that " Babis could just kill Caroline and claim he did it out of rage and just get 5-7 years but now he did all this for no reason and he will get more years" . So, he gave a tip to future murderers on how to Get away with killing another person with no grave consequences and in fact, another guy murdered his girlfriend while on holidays and he did exactly as the amazing chief of police advised all his fellow men...
Well its not the officer's fault. He was just being smartass. You should rather demand for the rule of law to change. Premeditated or not, a murder is a murder.
@@yagesh287 a smart-ass? Just that? well don't tell me what I should do, since the stupidity of the Greek police is beyond measure. Handling that type of a case and having to speak publicly requires some training or at least some common sense. He was in the wrong and incapable for this position and that's it .
You are making a huge assumption...that these future murderers have the brains to mask their premeditation as spontaneous. I doubt most will be that successful at it.
You're representing the 10 percent?
@@Joelswinger34 of marks audience living in greece
Such a tragedy. How do this marriage happened between a 16yr old and a 29yr old? She's gone way too soon and still a baby. RIP to both Caroline and the dog. Praying baby girl is doing well, loved and healthy.

Very rare to see any justice for animal abuse. Praise for that magistrate! 🙌🏽
I bet you eat animals so maybe stop the hypocrisy.
Yes the woman was worth 1.9 dogs
Turkey and Greece love animals.
That’s amazing. And shameful that more countries (including mine) don’t take the same severity as Greece does in regards to animal rights. What a sad story 😢 but what was the little girl doing with that fully grown man. 🚩#1 😖 I would think in civilized societies everywhere that sort of thing would be frowned upon as well..no? It would be here anyways 🇺🇸
no shiiit humans value are higher than animal !! ik it completely wrong to harm any animal but humans most be more valuable than any other creatures on earth
"Also a jail term of 11 years and six months for the brutal murder of 'Roxy'."
*(Pups around the world howl in appreciation)*
Finally some justice in the world.
to be honest, my dog is kind of indifferent. don't know why he keeps bottling his feelings
Excellent verdict! Bastard!
🇺🇸🇫🇷🇺🇸
This bothered me more than anything. That dog trusted him and would do anything for him. And he hung it. It's last thoughts were probably wondering what it did wrong.
Goosebumps !!! 🖤😢
As a Greek, I really did go "yay!" with this video! Congrats on your subtitles, they are spot-on! Loooove the bit about the Greek swearwords, spot-on too! This case was indeed very high profile and it was the first in a long line of domestic violence related crimes that have happened in the last couple of years. I live in Denmark and didn't follow it as closely, so it was interesting to get all the details from this video :-) There is an even crazier case that has been going on in Greece lately, about a woman who is accused of killing her 3 children. Look her up, her name is Roula Pispirigou. There was also a shocking story from Cyprus from about 5-6 years ago, about a man who would kill foreign women (foreigners that didn't have friends in the country, so nobody would be looking for them), put their bodies in suitcases and throw them in a river. Could make an interesting video...Keep up the good work, I love your content!!
@@rsmith8434 Not very sure to be honest, but you would need to contact the registry office of the city/town where that person was born. Red tape is horrible in Greece, so it won't be easy for a birth certificate that old...If I were you, I would combine it with a holiday in Greece😉 Best of luck!
@@rsmith8434 There are also some offices whose job is to provide information, services and help to citizens and sometimes they can make these procedures quicker, they are called KEP (ΚΕΠ in Greek), and there's one in every single city in Greece, but again, with a certificate that old, I am not sure they can help...
That poor dog 😭 Killed by someone he loved and trusted. Completely innocent. Nothing makes me more mad than animal cruelty!!
Well cruelty to humans should make you more mad. I love dogs too, I have 3. But humans matter more….
@@Cecethegreat425 not to me. I love my dogs just as much as the people in my life. I'd kill and do anything to someone who harms my animals. Idc who you are or what status you have. I love my animals just as much as people.
@@jichaelmordan1079 It may be so, but Luna-ii4mx said "Nothing makes me more mad than animal cruelty!!", not "Animal cruelty makes me as mad as human cruelty".
"She was 16 and he was 29" was all I needed to know about this guy to know he's a waste of fresh air
shame to her parents also. They allowed this relationship, obviously for the money. Disgusting
The age of consent in Greece is 15, i don’t agree with it but you’re equating an entire culture to pedophilic ideals? The world isn’t just what’s in your echo chamber lmao
@@misery2915 they didn’t have to allow it she has the right to give her consent. If that pisses you off, the I’m is 16 too, and that’s first world. America isn’t the only country in the world
@@mrbenizzle4087 America? I'm greek. Age of consent means nothing. She was underaged. how do you find it normal your 15 year old dating or getting groomed by a 30 year old. It's disgusting and it's the parents job to avoid this. Any normal parent would resolve this at once.
@@mrbenizzle4087 It doesn't matter what damn country it is. It's WRONG, and sick. If she was 25 and he 40, that would be a different story.
Mad respect for the Greek courts who also sentenced him for the murder of the dog. I happen to love dogs btw ❤️
The judge mentioned the dog at the Todt sentencing, in Florida, also. I would like to see it become a trend. ANIMALS COUNT.
And it was pretty hefty - 11 years. Wish we were like that in the UK.
@@joanodom2104 those dogs probably adored their killers :( also hanging your own pet from a balcony is one of the most f'ed up things I've ever heard, the thought of anybody doing that to my cat makes me want to cry
And other animals like cows, pigs chickens? Which are tortured and holocausted each year by infinite numbers.
yeah, why he murdered the dog makes no sense either
Beautiful to see a country that gives animals some justice ⚖️ 👏 ❤️ hope this monster never get to set his foot outside as a free person ever again.
R.I.P Caroline and Roxy ❤️🕊
Awful story, but I agree, props to the Greek courts for adding on extra time for killing the dog! Thanks for the video Mike, love ya too!
"Just divorce, just fucking divorce". Amen, brother. Thanks for this and all of your stories. We truly appreciate them.
Not an option for egotists.
If the system is biased against you (and even people in here STILL don't acknowledge it), what else can you do if you just don't want the state taking half your money away?
Probably not commit a murder….?
I guess we will never know the exact feelings of Caroline and Babis, but yeah just agree to go your separate ways if things are not working. Time and time again, custody over a child/children seems to be a huge factor in why people do not want to get divorced or potentially lose custody. Still, be adults about it. What did you think was going to happen, Babis? Sometimes, I question how much a parent actually cares about raising their child or if it is just another tool to use against their partner during the divorce process. This is getting long. I really just meant to say that I agree with you and the creator 100%. Just divorce.
Speaking from personal experience, staying in a toxic relationship for the sake of children does more bad than good for them, as well as everyone else.
Jesus Christ is the truth reach out
@@ElegyVio Yawn
Seriously. I wish my parents just split up sooner because they were really dysfunctional together and it absolutely affected me in negative ways.
Absolutely, ever since I can remember I hoped my mum would separate from my dad. He exhibits all the traits of a person with NPD. They stayed together until me and my sister left home. But the damage was done by then.
Ditto.
Thank you for giving Texas and Florida a break Mike.
Someone told me that innocent people do not talk to interviewers. They're mourning, they don't want 11 microphones in their face, they don't want to become a public spectacle. Poor Caroline; so young, a new mother. I hope her daughter is doing okay now.
This makes sense hence Chris Watts
Grieving people handle things differently all the time… think of all the parents of murder victims that speak to the media frequently… lots of innocent and grieving people talk to the media after a tragedy… sweeping generalizations like that are just ridiculous to make assumptions on.
honestly im surprised and impressed that they also charged him for the dog's murder. in the states, if a pet were to be killed alongside someone else, the most the perp would get for the pet would be animal cruelty. kudos to the greek justice system for actually giving people who kill animals in cruel ways punishments. RIP caroline & roxy!
Right? Animals are just considered ‘property’ so the charges haven’t been very great until recently, some things are finally changing! Obviously there is a correlation to animal abuse and violence towards people….
Anthony Todt was charged for Breezy's murder, although they called it animal cruelty so I'm not sure how the charges differ. Either way, I'm glad that these poor pups were acknowledged. RIP angels. 💜🌈
I Swear to God (that I don't believe in) I',m sure I'm incapable of hanging a dog... Based on no fear of eternal damnation, I've hung all the dogs I want to which is exactly 0. Members of PETA... not sure where that limit is ;)
and RIP Roxy !
its a first in Greece.
I am from Greece and Caroline's murder was a great shock to the whole country. Babis is a monster! He groomed Caroline when she was a teenager (something that, in my opinion, is not talked enough in Greece), trapped her in a abusive relationship, isolated her from everyone and eventually killed her. He also killed their poor dog, placed their daughter on her dead body to make it look like a robbery and then fake cried on TV for weeks.
Thank you for covering Caroline's story. You are amazing Mike! ❤
Εννοείται και συζητήθηκε πολύ..Ήξερε τι έκανε όταν του γυάλισε..
Thanks for the spoilers. Geez!
@@legionluciano looking at the comments while watching a true crime series is just dumb
@@legionluciano spoilers? this is a real case where a real person was murdered. its not a show for your entertainment
Did the public actually believe him initially or was he suspected fairly quickly?
The story is such a good example of malignant narcissism. This guy had no clue he should care about living things.
Hey Mike, go check the Roula Pispirigou case. It's another greek case that's been unfolding these days, mother killed her children presumably to keep her husband from leaving her. She's held for the murder of the older one Georgina 9 y. old, but it's been speculated that she killed the two younger ones too. There's also an open case for the death of her landlord lady, there were some money issues.
Also, great coverage of the event!!
I'm the 0.1% lol
11 years for torturing and murdering a puppy. The USA should have stiff penalties like this for animal cruelty!
wdym he's from greece
@@erinistryingherbest they meant that Greece did a good job with the penalty for killing the dog, and the USA should do the same thing.
11 years for killing a dog?! I've seen murderers get less for killing a human being. It was absolutely appropriate too. Poor pup. 💔
Proud greek viewer here, I don't know about the other folks, but I send much appreciation for the sensitive approach in your videos. Hope we will get to enjoy as long as you feel like it :)
Excellent video. 11 years for the dog. Love it. You are always such a treat. Thanks!
Then this man had the audacity to demand to raise Caroline's daughter from prison! Thankfully the Greek courts were having none of that and terminated his parental rights. She's being raised by Caroline's parents now!
Women having terrible taste in men, what else is new.
Yea great, they failed once as parents, why not give it another try, right!! Maybe they'll stand by and let a 40 or 50 year old GROWN MAN date the KID when she's 10. Parents should at very LEAST know that a grown man of almost 30 who wants to date their teenaged daughter has serious issues and PROTECT her from that obviously sick man!! But hey, second times the charm!!
Thank God 🙏
I'm sure they only punished him bc of media. I see all of these comments about how happy people are about greek courts and i want to laugh, not bc it's funny tho. People get raped and if courts consider to "take action", it's the victim receiving the weight. No justice ofc
@@ZDiddy7777 Caroline's sister, in the Philippines, is looking after the baby girl.
Mike I'm a fan from Greece!!!
This case shook the whole country. It was a tragedy indeed.
He is a textbook narcissist. Not only he murdered Caroline with his own hands but he placed the baby near Caroline's dead body, and of course the poor dog. He belongs behind bars for the rest of his life and even though he was convicted for life and ten years added for killing the dog he probably won't serve the whole sentence. He doesn't deserve to live among us. He must remain behind bars for the rest of his natural life.
Love you Mike keep up the good work!
Kudos to the Greek legal system for punishing him for the dog's death. In the US it's frequently difficult to prosecute and convict people for animal cruelty.
@@zarasbazaar Thank you, we're actually very vigilant on animal cruelty, we have a hotline, a webpage for reporting incidents and the laws are quite strict plus the punishments are a lot harsher
@@leonfth it took us yeeeears for that but, yeah, it has become somewhat stricter for animal abusers.
@@ioannana Σίγουρα αργήσαμε αρκετά αλλά τουλάχιστον φτάσαμε σε ένα σημείο που πολλές αναπτυγμένες χώρες δεν έφτασαν ακόμα. Από τις λίγες ευχάριστες εκπλήξεις αυτής της χώρας θα ήθελα να πω.
@@leonfth I wish all country’s would have this law for animal cruelty but the prisons would be overflowing sadly.
I am a non-Greek watching and enjoying you from Athens!! Love ya Mike. Thanks so much for all you do!!
Thanks Mike for mentioning that we all have boring and crap times in our everyday lives. It's freeing once we accept that. We're all the same.
I can’t imagine what Caroline’s mother must’ve gone through after she found out she hugged her daughters killer! I’m so glad they also charged him for killing the dog.
I wonder the same thing. Obviously, the mother in law didn't even ponder the thought he did it while they were consoling each other. At the moment the police arrived to arrest him, I wonder what went through her mind. It had to be devastating.
Who cares about a dog
YES!!!
To me there's one worse than that. I think Mike covered it but others definitely have. In Australia, a girl in foster care was killed by her foster dad because his ADULT son had been raping her and thought that she was probably pregnant, I think she was 11 or 12. The whole family covered it up. The rapest was out in no time, as well as the mom and brother! The worst part?? They carried her casket! They acted like they were the loving family, I about threw up!! How evil! That's like one extra kick in the gut! Playing the good guys, soaking up all of the condolences! Australia went way too easy on all of them, even the dad!! What a horrible horrible tragedy!
@@charlierobles316 😡obviously it's not the same as a 19 yr old girl but it still makes him a sick freak! He killed it for no reason...and in such a disgusting way and put it on display!
Also: what people often tend to forget about this case is the fact that Babis literally GROOMED Caroline into marriage. She was 16. Actual grooming took place and people said "he's a good guy, she's lucky to marry him".
A damn near 30 year old grown man trying desperately to impress a 16 year old by flying a helicopter over her school is insane. I try hard not to judge others’ cultures but there is just no world where a relationship dynamic like that is healthy
@@boated915 what does culture have to do with this, is this known as a Greek practice?
@@shmiqqy I don’t know and I hope not, but the age of consent in Greece is only 15, so their relationship was completely acceptable in the eyes of the law. It’s easy for me to point out the red flags in retrospect, but I can only speculate what the people around them thought about their relationship.
There are underage Filipinos all over the internet searching old man. Age don't matter to them. Only money and a better life. I wouldn't doubt she pursued him
@@tenglish420 disgusting overgeneralization and just plain wrong. A mother was killed! How’s crypto going by the way? I hear Tether and Terra are just doing swimmingly. You might wanna drop the crypto and learn compassion. You need it.

I knew he did it when you said he wasn’t hurt, what a pig. Yay on Greece for adding so much time for the dog murder too, he’s a monster. Love the content Mike 😊
YUP SAME
LIKE What HOME “ invaders” would harm the woman????? AND NOT THE MAN!!!???
C’mon now
for me,it was at 10:57, he had difficulties in responding to simple questions
Knew it was coming as soon as it was revealed he was 28 and her, 16. Vile man
I know. It didn't make sense either that he was unhurt, since robbers would likely want to incapacitate men first. Such a tragedy
A home invasion where they kill one person and not everyone else is essentially unheard of. They don't escalate the crime then leave witnesses.
‘Not the state. Not the font.’ Brilliant
It doesn’t sound like she had all her cards in a deck either from that diary entry. She hit him because he wouldn’t ask her how she was?
He got 11 additional years for murdering his dog? Thank God SOME countries take that kind of thing seriously…
I love that Mike always says " look after yourselves" and "I love you" it's so kind
😝
@bo rick 🤣
It’s emotional manipulation. I have serious doubts that he is in love with me
I love it so much!
I really could do without. I skip that part, it's cringe af. But that's an unpopulair opinion here, so his tactics work i guess ^^
I’m so happy they sought justice for Roxy too.
If in an abusive relationship, do NOT let the abuser know you want out. Do not know let the abuser know when you're leaving, this is the most vonderable moment.
Okay, there’s enough tragic violence in killing his beautiful young wife, but what kind of depravity has to exist within you as a person to place your infant daughter with her mother’s lifeless body, just to make your staged robbery look a bit more believable????? That poor little girl. 😢
This was my thought as well, absolutely traumatic for her. What a piece of shit this guy was for so many reasons.
And to kill the dog wtf
@@crystalrosas6052 RIGHT?
Don't forget hung the dog over the balcony...
he is a sick monster. He had no problem appearing in front of the cameras and reassuring everyone he has faith in the greek police to find whoever did this. He had the audacity to make her mother pay for Caroline's coffin and he showed up at the funeral with a helicopter as if he was playing in a movie. He literally hugged her mom moments before the cops went to arrest him. BTW, he said he unlocked his phone using his nose while he was tied up. It was the first thing that made everyone have second thoughts about him and his innocence. I hope her daughter will never meet this guy. He is no father. He didn't love Caroline or her.
Hats off to the Greece authorities for giving him 11+ years imprisonments for the murder of the dog 👍
For sure. That just warmed my heart.
Should've been 77 years in dog's years...wait...am I getting this right?
Was just thinking that
The Judge watched John Wick the night before the sentencing
Well most criminal here get out around the 20 year mark and just stay out
I wish the laws for killing or abusing animals were as strong here in the US as they seem to be in Greece. Poor dog didn’t deserve that as much as she didn’t
Hey you....I missed this one. Bad day for me. Bad mental place. Watching and rewatching some That Chapter. Wellll listening cuz I'm at the job. Please Mike never underestimate the work you do. Folks love ya, thank you for keeping us smiling, informed, and sometime terrified. Be safe all.
I hope today is better.
I'm glad he was convicted of his wife's murder and the dog, USA needs to take a page from that law book and for animal cruelty, people get away with that way the hell too much.
Kudos to Greece
Absolutely! It is such a horrifyingly common characteristic of sociopathic/narcissistic (often serial) murderers out there that they either have a history of animal torture and abuse or it is found alongside their other atrocities like this monster. It is such an indicator of a truly viscous and almost certainly lethally dangerous and volatile calculating individual that it should be taken much much more seriously- aside also from the fact that it is an inhumanely soulless and truly evil act to even have a thought of committing against such innocent and often helpless beautiful little pure souls that pets and animals often are in those tragic situations. 😭💔
You are so right about the dog! I think if more ppl in the US got sentences like that for animal abuse or neglect they might think twice before doing anything cruel to a helpless animal. Then again, sadly, I doubt that would work…ppl would still find ways to get out of it or around it, and their attorneys would get their charges dropped or decreased to something a lot less. 🙄 And even if none of that happened, I highly doubt anyone put in jail for 11 years for killing their dog that way would in any way actually end up serving the full 11 years! Ha! This country is notorious for letting ppl outta jail/prison early all the time! Smh. Yeh, don’t even get me started on that… May that beautiful baby girl be blessed and protected for the rest of her life, and may her mother and Roxie RIP. 🌹 🕊 ❤️ 💐
I agree!!! So happy that he was punished for both murders!!! Only a sociopath would kill the mother of his child and an innocent and helpless dog!!!
I wish you had our gun laws too.
So does the uk x
I already knew he’s guilty when I heard that he groomed her when she was just 16 and he was in his 30! I know there can be love despite so big age difference but in my opinion usually men going for teens treat them as purely sexual objects, easy to dominate and control. For me it is sickening that we see this quite often.
Yep 👍
So in most US States that's called Jail Bait/ Statutory Rapee. Anybody know the Greek Laws on this? Mom & Dad could have had this mean SOB locked away and none of this awful stuff had to happen. I'm ignorant about the laws there. Such a sad end to a lovely lady & precious pup.
Yes. The maturity levels or large gap in maturity IMO makes him a pedo. What normal 30 yr old would be interested in a 16 yr old girl, even sexually because they don't have any experience, think starfish, but my point is for him to go for such a young girl had red flags
@@GregBrownsWorldORacing apparently the age of consent in greece is 15 :/
@@BlisaBLisa Ooh... that law didn't help her.
I'm only glad that their daughter is too young to have any memory of this entire situation. It may be her only saving grace growing up when eventually she has to learn about her parents. 💔
Actually the younger children without ability to speak suffer the most trauma based brain changes....she was experiencing something horrific visually and unable to gain relief from either mom or Dad or puppy....she will need extensive therapy to heal from this....hopefully her grandparents do a better job raising her
May she rest in peace ❤️ and bubba grow up with a wide support system and a beautiful future. My heart hurts as a mother for this child.
What a tragic and absolutely heartbreaking story. 😔❤️
I live in Greece. From the moment I saw him I knew he had killed Caroline. The case shook the whole country. I hope her soul, and her dogs soul rest in peace and that her daughter does not go through hard times.
exactly..when I first saw his face I was like 🤔
He was worse than Chris Watts. You didn't need to hear what he told the reporters, just watch him. This lack of empathy was shocking. His words were he hoped that "no other family comes through what i, MY family and my wife's family went through". Really, Babis? Really?
@@julieslovelyworld I did not follow the case as I was too busy with school. But when I saw him... As you said, the lack of empathy made me say it. Many told me that I was wrong and were genuinly shocked that it was him. The only thing that shocked me was how cold heartedly he destroyed his daughters life. He was jealous of her, he killed the dog only because when Caroline got the puppy she told everyone that she will love it as much as she loves her daughter. I hope he rotts in prison.
💜 I, TOO, PRAY. FOR CAROLINE'S DAUGHTER 🙏 THAT SHE WILL LIVE A LIFE FULL OF ONLY GOOD, WITH CAROLINE'S FAMILY 💜
💜 MAY CAROLINE REST IN PEACE 🕊️💜
I read about Caroline’s parents. It was heartbreaking. Her mother barely talks anymore and devoted herself to looking after her granddaughter. They are both heartbroken 💔
I was wondering about her, that is extremely sad, feel warm knowing she’s safe with her family, Thank you✌🏻
Thank the universe that her mother has her granddaughter to remember her daughter by. What a tragic moment.
Oh my gosh, that is so sad...
Such a selfish and evil soul to take her away from her family and child, it's just horrific to think about💔
🙏😢
🙏😢
That cute puppy? My goodness, I guess you'd have to be EXTRA calloused to do that to such a cute animal.
could tell he was guilty as soon as he started talking to reporters.
This is why you never tell a controlling partner you are leaving them. You just leave without warning when they are off the premises, seek safety and shelter with others and go no contact
Exactly. I never understood why people need to announce this...haven't they heard enough stories to know the risks?
I think the killing is about losing control. Taking her life would reassert his control.
👍🏾👍🏽👍🏻‼️
came for the crime, stayed for the personality. Hands down my favorite channel now
That’s on Mike’s business card ! Or should be …

He had it all and threw it away because he wasn't mature enough to deal with the separation like a civilised person. Poor Caroline, she was so young too :/

I Am a non Greek living in Athens. And While this case was covered by media extensively, Greek society (in my opinion) missed to focus on how disgusting it is that adult man was trying to date high schooler. I don’t understand how parents can allow almost 30 year old date 16/17 years old. Absolutely crazy and disgusting.
Yes, absolutely disgusting
Let's be honest here...he was rich...that's why.
I am a Greek not living in Greece. Greek society is unfazed by the age difference because it's not considered out of the ordinary: my parents are 16 years apart, and other family members of mine touch 30 years difference, including teacher-student relationships. I think it's a combination of a patriarchal societal structure and the religious undertone that make Greeks normalize these relationships.
@@eleni73 I totally agree, Eleni. It weirded me out because you still can see a lot of partnerships where female is much much much younger than male. However, we are not living in 19th or 20th century. And while i understand that there is different acceptance of age difference in Greece, I still believe that in many cases it is just not correct and right. Especially, when u start to day someone as a child, because let’s face it, she was a child. Every single adult person in her environment who supported this relationship failed her. The fact that he did not look like usual pedo suspect and had money does not mean that at almost 30 he should be dating high schooler.
@@bettywith2girls unfortunately, I also believe that his social status “excused” the fact that he was dating adolescent. Still can’t boggle my mind, though!
I wish the animal cruelty/killing charges carried hefty sentences here like they do in Greece..
11+ years for killing the poor pup, plus life for killing his beautiful wife, serves the monster right!
Rest easy Roxy. You're with your mom and at peace.
So many trees involved in all your stories🌳🌲🌳
I’m among the 0.1% as well 🤣 love from Greece! Oh, and thank you Mike for being…you!
Big ups to Greece for also nailing him for murdering poor Roxy.
What a horrific case 😕
Hello, Mike. Hello, everyone. My name is Νατάσα Καφετζάκη. I am Greek, living in Thessaloniki, Greece. I have been watching THAT CHAPTER, non-stop, for almost three years, now. Thanks, Mike, for a STELLAR coverage of Caroline's case. Babis is indeed a monster. He should never see the light of day, again. By the way, Mike, your Greek viewers/fans are MANY more than you believe. Take Care. And keep up the good work. We appreciate it, and YOU!
Omg thank you for covering this! I read about this in non American news and was so surprised and disappointed it wasn’t covered here in US
Bravo Mike, you did this story credit.
Proud member of the 0,1% of Greek viewers here and long time fan! I didn't think you'd top the life insurance dance but you really cracked me up with the Greek swear words!! I had to go back and give it another listen!! Thanks Mike for making Tuesday and Friday so much better and also there are quite a few rather disturbing Greek cases you could cover. The most interesting one for me would be the Satanists of Pallini from 1993.
Δεν περίμενα ότι θα ήμασταν τόσοι πολλοί πάντως!😅
I also mentioned Pallini's Satanists in my comment. Plus Theofilos Sehidis.

Παρούσα ;)
11 years added for the dog- go Greece! Caroline was beautiful- RIP
I knew he was involved the moment I found out their respective ages, don't ever trust a person who goes after minors. RIP Caroline and Roxy.
That " Minor" Stuff is only negative here in America.
@@ekbanksthank God America sees the disparity
@@salmathecopt7969 Only to a certain degree. If it were not for the white feminist in this country having such a strong voice And influence Do you honestly think these perverted men in leadership will actually wait until the girl is 18 to lay with her?
@@ekbanksnope...only messed up people don't see a problem with dating minors...the rest of us, sane people despises it
@@asuka-ryo So whats a "minor"??
Greece KNOWS how to punish a damn criminal!! 11 years just for killing the dog 🙌🏼
Ladies if you’re in a situation like this…take the case and LEAVE. Don’t tell them, don’t beg, try to work it out, or threaten. JUST LEAVE WHILE HE’S GONE!!!!
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way it's animals are treated" Gandhi. WAY TO GO GREECE for punishing him for the dog!
“Hey you” sounds like your old buddy talking to you on FaceTime! Hey to you too mike. We LOVE LOVE what you do
Means a lot to read that!
@@ThatChapter This still doesn’t change the facts that there are 49 million kangaroos in Australia and 3.5 million people in Wales which means if kangaroos were to invade Wales each person will have to fight 14 kangaroos. 😏
@@berni9977 dear Lord...glad I live in America. lol
@@berni9977 You forget that the Welsh have an ace up their sleeve: sheep! Over 5 million rams can charge the kangaroos Lord of the Rings-style and improve the Welsh odds
@@beno1129 😮😮
29 to 16 age gap should have been a red flag. I am happy to see the Greek justice system did a great job on this.
Mike I came across your channel around a year and a half ago.I want to say I love the VIDEOS and the way you express yourself in the telling of each story is refreshing
love you,your 😃 smile and laugh.Thank You Mike for just being YOU ❤😃😁
This crime is almost every day in Greek media, for a year now! Shocked our country. He is an evil monster! So cruel and tragic story. Congratulations for your channel, i watch it every time. Greetings from Greece! 🇬🇷
No Crackhead liar batch 🤥
I have watched a ton of these vids. Just wanted to say great job on presentation of all these cases. Thanks for sharing them.
Thanks Mike!! I could listen to you all day!
I love how modern technology is taking out criminals because of their own stupidity.
Hey Mike, Greek fan here! I am actually giddy rn, can’t believe you would cover this case, a case that truly gripped the nation. Unfortunately, femicides are quite often in Greece, however this one stands out due to many un-Greek (?) elements, mainly the elaborate staging of the murder scene.
What you said at the end of the video regarding how lame and painfully awkward Babis appeared in his TV interviews is so spot on. Many people were convinced he was the killer just by watching his responses on camera.
You’re the best! Thanks for putting in all the work for these!
It's nice to see the people of Greece passionately condemning his actions. He's a monster and his daughter will grow up to know what he did to her mother. I pray for that little baby girl ❤🙏🏽
The Greek people have my greatest respect, that they charged him not only for murdering his wife, but the dog. BRAVO.
I have VERY serious concerns about men in their 20s and older who want and pursue teenage girls... It's beyond creepy, and I believe stats show it's usually a one-way ticket to all kinds of shite, up to and including what happened here. I was reading the other comments - thank goodness the little girl has her maternal grandmother to raise and care for her. Another fantastic job, Mike - you take care as well, and remember, we love you, too! ❣
What about older women (cougars) that do the same to young men? I guess society has double standards right?
@@daBEAGLE1017 i believe what they meant was not that the age gap itself was the problem, but rather legal adults pursuing teenagers
@@NK6only yes that's correct😉
This is a very disgusting story. This guy groomed a high school student by flying over her school. I’m sorry but I’m not ok with any part of this story even before we get to this pervert killing his wife and poor beautiful puppy. I agree with you Connie, it’s beyond creepy. Nothing good should have been accepted. As her crush on him evaporated, he was not going to accept it.
I knew a guy who was dating 16/17 year olds in his late 20's. Weirdly, it turns out that he was a piece of shit too!
It's almost like his dating choices were indicative.
0.1% Greek here thanks for covering Mike! We knew something was fishy with that guy as soon as he started giving public interviews.
Soon you will be covering another story in Greece, this time in Patra, mark my words. Looking forward to it. Brilliant video as always!
Every body was suspecting that Babis was the culprit, right from the start. You did not butcher the Greek names, except Glika Nera (Sweet Waters). There are some cases that can be featured in your channel, and we,your Greek fans will be delighted to help you out! Your pronunciation of Greek curse words was hilarious!
Next chapter Roula Pispirigkou..
really ??? Why , he looks very much calm , cool and collected . I just still cannot grasp it its him. What a vaste of human life . He must of had tortured mind .
How are you guys doing over there in Greece? Hope you all are well on that side of the world!
I'm happy seeing all these Greek names. Artemis Iro and Vangellis your last name is more Greek than Athens ;) Have you been watching Mike all along and we are just now noticing you? We suppose Mike's first language is Greek ;), but his English is coming along well. Opa!
@@verityverity4040 likely because it's more common to be killed by a spouse or family member than a stranger.
Hi!!!! 🇬🇷I'm one of the few Greeks who watch you, and have actually recommended this case! I feel seen 🤓
On another note, this case exemplifies the misogyny in Greece. Super young girls hanging out with older guys, and no one ever thinks twice about it. Also, the way media covered this, always referring to Caroline's physical appearance. Just disgusting.
I was trying to calculate how old she was when she became pregnant.. By an adult man 😞😞
I do not remember any greek media referring to Caroline's physical appearance and I do live in Greece. In fact everyone more or less was certain that this guy was a scumbag and was lying from the very beggining as nothing was making sense
@@Panos835 Well, it was mentioned in literally every single coverage: gorgeous Caroline, the girl with the luscious long hair, beatiful young girl with sparkly eyes etc. Objectifying her even in death.
@@Sarah-ru2pd About 17 1/2, I think he said the baby was 18 months old? If so then 9 months pregnant equals 27 months to knock off Caroline (no pun intended) age of 19 years & 10 months. But if baby younger then she was older than 17 1/2. Either way it usually takes time to get pregnant, especially if she was on some form of contraception like the pill & not relying on him for condoms. Regardless she was only just above legal age when the relationship started.
@@andrewmoreton2368 I assumed when he said they adopted a dog, four cats, and a baby that the baby was adopted...unless he misspoke..
Mike, your goodbyes at the end are always, like, awkward, and i don't know why as you are such a gift of the gab person! Great channel mate.
you are so great Mike. thank you everyday . May God bless you.
I knew it would only be a matter of time before Smart watches and step-counting would become involved in a case. This will happen much more in the future and really help.
I know! Brilliant! Science & tech just keep on improving/ helping catch criminals. Now, if we can find some solutions to gun violence!
It's certainly not the first time. Familial DNA through ancestry testing is also solving so many cold cases; the days where murderers and rapists escape because they aren't on a DNA database are going - they can be tracked down and identified through relatives' DNA. What we need now is GPS microchips implanted in criminals who are likely to reoffend. Don't want to be chipped because "muh rights!", well, don't do the crime.
It’s been used many times
Loving the amount of cases you've covered lately that I've not heard of Mike! This is a sad one, such a vile man. Massive kudos to Greece for adding 11yrs onto his sentence for killing that beautiful doggie, I wish other countries took animal abuse this seriously!!
I am Greek, and I was also pleasantly surprised about the doggo sentence as well!
Yes, in America animals are considered "property" so there is basically no punishment for animal crimes. Yay Greece!!
As if killing humans weren't enough (Caroline was so pretty) - the dog gets hung too? Sick sh*t. That dog was adorable. :(
Yep! We could learn a lesson from Greece✊
A neighbour of my brothers threw his dog off a 5th floor balcony!!
He was arrested!
But for criminal damage done to the car that his poor dogs body hit!!
So this psychopath had to make reparation for a dented car! Disgusting!😡
Hi Mike I'm Greek living in Austin, Texas and we love your channel!! Cheers!!!
i have been watching you for a few years...I Love your videos! I am so glad that you have done well and continue to do well on your channel. I hope you continue for a long time. You are very much appreciated ♥
