- Michael Jackson-Bolanos testifies Wednesday, July 3 at his trial in connection with the killing of Samantha Woll. Jackson-Bolanos is standing trial for murder and other charges in June in connection with the Oct. 21, 2023, stabbing of Woll at her Detroit home.
If I were a juror..not guilty
He’s definitely guilty. You’ve not even heard all the evidence and his testimony here he’s clearly lying & implicates his gf in his criminal activities. It’s a good thing the system does an amazing job when vetting people to serve on the jury.
How are you going to change someone else’s opinion or perspective….
I kind of believe him. Wrong place, wrong time. If I was breaking into cars and came across a dead body, I don't know if I would call the cops either. It seems that all the state has against him is that he was near Samantha's house when her motion sensor was triggered, and he had some of her blood on him/ his clothes. That can all be explained by Samantha crawling outside her house at around the time the motion sensor was triggered and him touching her body, as he described. I just don't think that's enough to convict somebody.
The biggest piece of reasonable doubt for me is the fact that nothing was taken from her house. The state's theory is that this was a robbery gone wrong. But where's the robbery? Yeah, he was breaking into cars. But somebody who's willing to break into cars isn't necessarily willing to murder. He was trying to stay under the radar and not get caught. So why would he murder someone and not take anything from their house? Doesn't make any sense.
Exactly! He stole a bag of candy from a car so it’s safe to assume that he did murder her in a robbery gone wrong that he would’ve stole something from her house too but he didn’t. I don’t think he’s guilty either
@@murderwiththecourt7834 I believe he was pissed with the gf and in some weird way was looking for a woman to take it out on. Similar to that killer cop, gf dumped him and then suddenly that day he was looking for a random girl to unalive. Like somehow the rage is transferred. That being said the physical evidence is not there so I think they would need to acquit
He could have easily called into 911 about the body, anonymously, and then leave. Also, he was not truthful about his thieving activities with the cops, nor did he just tell them -“yes I was up to no good, saw a body and ( like the good citizen that I clearly am not) tried to check on her condition and assuming she was beyond help I called 911.” He lied right off the bat and is only now trying to explain why he might have her blood on him.
@@malcriadamedina5358 I wasn't aware that he was pissed with his girlfriend. Where was this said?
@@dominiquerichmond4074 going through an argument or something
I’m stuck on people having their doors UNLOCKED in DETROIT! 😭
They were probably already stolen. I can't get past the fact that these wh!te folk are living in Detroit w!llingly.
LMAO!
A grown man stealing candy 😳 now on trial for murder. This whole thing is just so crazy.
I can't believe what is happening oh my gosh a grown man stealing cars get a job🎉
@@tishawhite6926 He didnt went to STEAL Candy!! He had a habit of burglarizing cars and happen to found the candy and took it with him! Of course its stealing but that was not his reason for breaking into cars!!! Use your brains, iggy!
@@caribbeancutie8975 huh? “Use your brain?” That’s kind of a reach, don’t you think? I’m aware of what he was doing. If you’re going to be rude or condescending, maybe don’t reply to people.
@@virginiafaulkner1149 He said he had a job as a Manager during the interrogation.
Not when you are Black in America 😢
Whats baffling to me is wouldn't Samantha's family and friends want real justice for her murder if it was my friend or family member, I would want real justice so that I could rest better knowing the real killer is serving time not just charging anyone with her murder just to satisfy the people thats not real justice the Ex Boyfriend is clearly guily you would have to be insane not to see the ex is guilty high or not medicated or not if that was the case pretty much the whole entire united states would be running to the police departments beliving they commmited murders this is a bunch of bull crap the ex boyfriend received immunity because he done it. He probably has no criminal record his parents knows he could never handle prison and more then likely he would take his own life in prison, his family has a little money and connections with the jewish community the ex is a sick man with a lot of mental issues clearly lets stop being so bias and judgemental of other nationalities and be honest human beings, the ex could not except her rejecting so he took her life. he should not be a Dr. Of any kind, his license should be revoked indefinite, unfortunately! now if this man is found guilty, he will serve 20/30 years in prison, then found not guilty after serving all that time for a crime he did not commit, and then becomes a millionare with our tax paying dollars for wrongful conviction. now tell me, is this real justice? we have seen this throughout history in the United States. Also, im not saying this black man is an angel he is not innocent he should not have been out breaking into cars or anything but he did not commit this murder, we dont no what we would have done if we came across someone lying on the ground in the middle of the night we may try to shake them, speak to them to see if they are okay we may even reach down and touch them it was a cold winter night, yes he should have called the police but because he was out commiting auto crimes that he should not have been doing but that doesn't make him guilty of killing this young lady we need real justice for samantha not charging a random person because they were out commititng dumb senseless crimes lets pray that Samantha receives real justice from the real murderer so her family and friends will be able to rest better at night 🙏
I believe him! I think the ex bf did it.
I’m sure you do Lenny
@@chanyoung3725😂
@@chanyoung3725 lol you think Michael did it?
Not guilty. Evidence is very flimsy. And he comes across as very credible in his testimony. He's not shifty eyed, hesitant, or stumbling on his testimony.
Facts remember the ex said he blacked out. Because he's white they let him go
The way that woman was killed, he would have had blood all over that jacket when he appeared back at "home". None can be seen on the camera footage
Exactly
Exactly! It was a pretty gruesome scene so he would’ve had blood everywhere and wouldn’t have gone over to Greektown where people could see him. I think he’s innocent for sure
Exactly! There was blood splashed all over her walls. There is absolutely no way that there would’ve been only a couple of drops on him
Boom. You nailed it. No blood on the front of the jacket and definitely not soaked in blood for a murder scene that was violent and blood everywhere. I hope the jury gets it right and acquits this guy. He's innocent.
Matlock has entered the chat 🤣
While talking to police, Herbstman "THE EX BOY FRIEND" added that he had a motive to kill Woll because she had broken up with him in July after about a year of dating. He last saw Woll on October 7, 2023. Woll was murdered on Oct. 21.
"I had a motive and an opportunity," he told police in the bodycam footage.
Throughout the interaction, he kept repeating that he didn't remember anything.
Herbstman testified that he started having irrational thoughts that he may have stabbed Woll to death after learning about her murder from the news.
"I had no recollection of killing Sam," he said in court. "I convinced myself that I had done this act, but I could recall nothing of it."
While testifying, Herbstman said he believed the medication he was taking for depression made him delusional. The night of his alleged psychotic break, he had doubled his medication and used marijuana.
THIS GUY IS NOT GUILTY OF MURDER. Ex PLAYING "CRAZY" NOW.
@@BIG-GAME-HUNTINGall of this! So confused as to why he isn't the defendant in this case. Ex doesn't get to say which medications caused what side effects he's no dang doctor! What is really going on?
Wow
Facts
Facts @@Nahtassja
Damn smh
I've changed my mind...NOT GUILTY.
Not guilty. Evidence is very flimsy. And he comes across as very credible in his testimony. He's not shifty eyed, hesitant, or stumbling on his testimony.
I believe the only thing he guilty of his breaking into cars. I believe the police and prosecutor did a rush job. Why wasn't the boyfriend vette more? Again, they wanted arrested someone because of the climate of crimes against the Jewish community. If this crime of passion and he no relationship to this lady. Some of this is not making sense. I hope they have right person but I don't believe the do. My heart feels for the victim family. I wonder do they believe the state has the right person.
I hope he's not a smooth criminal
😂😂😂😂😂😂 the nuance. Chef’s kiss 👩🍳💋
He read that WHOLE room ‼️
He Did wow!!
I believe him I don’t think he did it. I hope the jury makes the right decision
For the same reason you noted, I believe him too. Not guilty. Evidence is very flimsy. And he comes across as very credible in his testimony. He's not shifty eyed, hesitant, or stumbling on his testimony.
Wow, man, listening to his jail call with his fiance was very sad. Damn, man this hurts. It was all the telltale signs of an innocent man reaching out for justice.
I can appreciate his honesty tho..
Right! And the fact he's honest about his petty crimes makes him believable all over. Let's pray the jury is keen to this and acquits him. That man is innocent.
Here before the not guilty verdict ™️
This guy is guilty of making poor decisions.
Not guilty of murder.
Who is guilty for the horrible crime? The ex-boyfriend or the guy that was stalking Woll. I heard his phone was turned off during the hours where the murder occurred.
I believe him he didn't kill that woman the ex boyfriend said he did it then he changed his story y'all got the wrong guy on stand the ex boyfriend supposed to be on stand
Yea he did....he was caught committing a robbery and would have gone to prison for life....he rolled the dice and committed murder to take out the witness...he's a lifelong scumbag felon
I believe he is gonna go free because he’s truly innocent in my opinion.
I absolutely believe this guy is innocent of murder. The meticulousness in him explaining every move he made. Even down to him explaining how blood feels when it's dry in the skin.... Like paint chipping.
He even seemed to reform once he got out of jail... At least somewhat... Is enough evidence to absolve ... Then you can hear his gut when he realizes she doesn't believe him.. They trying to convince him to plea. Probably told him he getting 25 years ...
It was the ex. This guy is NOT the one.
Him running away from "security" is not a sign of someone who wants a confrontation. Why would a killer try breaking into cars, dodge security before deciding to kill a woman. Makes no sense. The state was lazy on this case.
Yet Another good reason not to steal cars or even scout around for cars to steal. You never know what you might get yourself into. Sad 😢 situation.
I don't see 12 people finding this guy guilty. I've served on a 12 person jury on a rape case and this guy was guilty as $hit so it was really easy finding him guilty. This ain't that!
Avoiding confrontation stealing somebody's car😂
58:25 THE CRAZIEST PART OF THIS STORY IS THAT HE WAS A MANAGER AT A JUICE SHOP. This man had a job and was still compulsively stealing from strangers.
He is telling the truth
That sick ex
I don't know if I believe him but I dk the evidence is spotty
Beyond a reasonable doubt
Not guilty, everybody say not guilty
Mental note: dont check on a person laying in the ground, may be deceased and blamed.
Did you miss the part of his testimony where he said the reason he touched her was because he was concerned seeing someone was down might need help? His reaction in checking on her is what most people with any ounce of humanity would do. The guy is innocent.
@@khalilfareed yup, said he wasn't sure if the person fell or was drunk
He didn't murder Samantha Woll.
She got stab in the face and neck, that's a crime of passion, she knew her killer.
Wrong place, wrong time.
I hope the jury makes the right decision.
I haven't heard any compelling evidence here to pin it on him. And how do they have him on video checking the body, but not un-aliving her?
This case is interesting. His innocence sounds so convincing. But I have heard many men tells lies and sound so convincing that they are not guilty...I hate to see him go through this because he will be forever marked even if he is found not guilty 😢
Wow!!!!
He most definitely read that whole courtroom!!
He’s innocent but I think this was a sign from god to change his life. He did choose petty crimes thinking the most he’d face is Leas than 10. But now I hope he sees that no matter how much time you think you don’t mind sitting, life of crime no matter how petty can possible end in life in prison. Just stay say from crimes period
Absolutely not!
I believe him, the ex boyfriend already admitted to killing her and they let him go smh!
I keep seeing this comment. Did he say it in interrogation? I need to see this.
@@MissTia0427 He first called went in and told them he believed he had killed her! He later said that I smoked some weed, and got some new antidepressants medication! They let him go! I really believe it was the ex, I believe he panicked and told on himself
He did tell them in interrogation
I believe the man
It's easy to admit a lesser crime (grand theft auto) when your being accused of murder
The prosecution seems to be playing dirty
It makes me sick that they 'decide' who did it and pin it all on them instead of getting who actually did. They just want it over with.... my sisters killer is still out there because they did the same in her case.
Damn sorry to hear that
Innocent!!
Thank you Black Queen for having the melanin male back even if they are criminals or not, society can always count on Blk women to show sympathy and empathy for the bad and the evil. You will receive your blessings on the other side, just not down here because the glory is for the melanin brothers only on earth.
I second that. He's innocent! Police rushed to frame this guy.
@@khalilfareed Absolutely!
her admitting to washing the jacket is the most damning thing. him sending pics of challengers is such a new angle and criminals are always upgrading their "skills." feel for the guy. all i can do is internalize what i can do positive for myself and be glad im not him. on the jury id probably acquit. he will do something else in the future so he will definitely get his 5 to 10 years of incarceration but not by me.
Idk I hope this situation and the interaction with the deceased woman is enough to change for the better.
Can someone tell me which video it's in saying where she was ? Like she had ghb so I doubt she was chilling alone
One tip
Finger prints
Goes through rubber gloves
He dint kill samantha,I beleive during the coarse of that night while he was out stealing cars,he came upon her body,and he touched her to see if she was breathing,when she wasn't he went into panic mode,African american men go into panic mode in instinces like these,because he knew once he touched her,he was number one suspects!!!😢
I wonder if he ever considered getting a job.
He actually had one during this time
It's irrelevant. No need to go there. What's done is done and any attempt to ridicule, at this point, isn't called for. The issue at hand is whether or not he committed the Act, not whether he was motivated to get a job. What's clear is that he did not have one.
@@YGisG He literally said he was doing business with an airbnb replacing the Ring doorbell. Sounds like a job to me.
He did work but he steals cars which people can file insurance claim and make insurance company actually earn the money they take rom everyone
Yea I def believe him. Nobody who steels cars or in the middle of steeling cars stabs or kills anyone. Their whom thing is not to be seen at all by anyone so they can be in and out. The dude knew he was on camera in the area walking around checking cars already so it be dumb so go and then killl somebody.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes
I don’t think he did it either petty criminal yes murderer no.
I don't believe he did it not guilty I say
He should have remained silent after hearing his testimony & his answers being so vague &’nothing like what he had told the police. He also made his gf look like part of the stolen car thief ring. She didn’t seem genuine on the stand & this man only made it appear that she right along with his stealing the cars & others property.
Well, one thing is weird.....he keeps calling his girl a bro. Maybe It's just me, but that's weird.
This defense lawyer was the same lawyer used in the Zion case he was SSA af I hope he do better this time
He's doing a fine job. The facts in the Zion case were pretty tough to beat. Not here. The facts in this case are very thin and especially weak as it concerns his guilt. I think there was a rush to charge once they saw him on cameras in the area. But as most lawyers will tell you and even non-lawyers can appreciate, your location at the scene of a crime alone is not evidence of guilt. Would you want that happen to you? I did not think so.
He was sooooo ssa in the Zion case. Even tho that man was guilty as hell, the defense lawyer didn’t fight every time they had a problem with his questioning, etc.
“I was breaking in cars…I mean not breaking in cars, but going into motor vehicles” 😄 Sir, that doesn’t change it or make it better. You could’ve been at home looking for a job.
he is saying he didnt break into them but opened doors to steal out of them
He had a job
@@jemmie0774 yeah I saw that as I kept watching. I guess he needed another one if he still had time to steal from others.
Putting on the surgical gloves was a big mistake - normal car thieves don't car about fingerprints
wtf is a normal car thief? 🤣
@@gillchesterton8614 Car thieves who would not commit murder is what I deem to be a normal car thief in this circumstance
@@DaProfessional21 ahhhh okay okay you're right that makes sense
Being a manager at a job and braking in cars at ugly hours of the night don’t sit right with me he seems to me to be a person of strange mental work . Sense he wanted to avoid people and it was his 4th habitual maybe he panic and stabbed her by her car
I’ll keep watching but being a manager and out at 3-4 am braking in cars is psychotic to me far fitch over the top and wired
I think he's innocent of the murder. It's the crime of stealing from hard working, fellow Detroiters that he should face justice for.
And for the record, people in jail/prison get better medicine than those on the outside. And I see he already has lawsuit money in mind. Ready to drain the taxpayers.
Whose fault is that when you've got the boyfriend admitting to killing her, then being able to retract his confession because he was high off weed and Xanax? 🤨FOH
@@chanyoung3725 not true for all jails unfortunately
Well if your dirty cops hadn't framed him, you would not have had a worry about taxpayers getting read to pay a hefty price for their misconduct. That man is innocent.
Someone says they have evidence of me connected to a crime and that makes me not want to tell the truth. Bro wtf?! That makes absolutely no sense. He might get off because of LSP.
Quit dating these losers.
he didnt do it, clearly.
😅 LOL who will have a boyfriend a thief😅
whet
@@DarrionaGarnerright! Lol. Sound stupid asf.
Guilty as f
Yes but how did he leave without being covered in blood? He passed people right after, clothes totally clean
Big sigh---ahh yes ignorance still exists
@@malcriadamedina5358 Notice how David cannot come back to answer that. No surprise, considering he's shouting guilty without knowing all the facts. seems like there's other motive for wanting a guilty verdict and it has nothing to do with the state's evidence. The guy is NOT guilty.
@@malcriadamedina5358yes and his gf didn’t react when she let him in. Any sane person would’ve appeared shocked.
@MissTia0427 I've seen learned no big arteries were hit, and it was a bunch of smaller stabs and she slowly drowned in her own blood. So now I do feel like he didn't get any on him because it didn't squirt out.
Still a predator.
do you say that about all the teens that break into cars?
Oh I'm glad you are not on the jury. So tell me, where or how is that evidence of murder? Never mind. Spare us the suspense of your stupidity.
Predator?
He cute
His motive , habitual offender status.
He’s lying , come on people,, you don’t just happen upon a dead body and leave if you’re a decent person, a lot of thieves do stuff big would still report a dead woman.. he’s a liar.
That's in the movies, some people that has not committed any crimes would involve themselves in situations like these just so they don't become implicated or a suspect themselves.
He has clear detailed memories... he is innocent af and its clear as day they grabbed the first person in the area instead of doing their jobs.
Oh, did you miss the lies the two investigating officers also told in their testimony or did you just skip right over that because you are pro-police? "You don't just happen on a dead body," you say? Really? How do you think dead bodies get found all over the world? People "find" them or come up on them. You must live in a bubble.
@@motives88 I agree. The man is totally innocent and this is nothing more than police and prosecutors zeal to frame an innocent man. How sick.
Are you even listening?! Hate for you to be a juror and someone life was on the line!
If he didn't do it he still going down for it bro.
What a loser
Here before the not guilty verdict ™️
