I could never skip school or not come home when I was supposed too.I was too scared of my mother to just disobey her.I know this is different because Meredith seemed too afraid of Jimmy to tell anyone what he was going to do.She must have had the same type of fear but it ruined her life

Thank you friends cheers,🥂🕊️🤜 Vinnie one of the best, Top notch been watching you since the Jody case, great channel and fantastic show 😮☝️😮😇🙋😊🏋️🔌📺 keep it playing...
How he was surprised by his guilty verdict is beyond me. Dude your gf got 20 years for being an accomplice. You actually killed your parents so how you think you gonna make out, just stupid!
I asked myself this exact question. I mean ... the expected verdict was a no brainer.
A narcissist is always in denial as they are sickos
Goes into the courtroom as the case opens, smiling and winking at the camera. Then when pleading for life, cries the fakest tears I've ever seen in my life. He's brain broken regardless and offers no insight for helping others. And zero remorse.
Narcs always think they are smarter than everyone in the room and then cry that snot nose bs when they feel they are losing. It’s just an act to make someone change their mind. Like sobbing will change a verdict 😂 narcissists are dumb.
idk but i’m 😭😂😂😭
Vinnie tells it like it is, that's why I love him
Absolutely
Ditto
He is the best 😻😻!!
He’s annoying.
I absolutely agree @loriwood4938. 😊
To my parents I love and appreciate everything you guys did for me
Yes. My parents did everything to support me and when I had failures they were always there to pick me up. Now I am 64 years and mom is next door, dad died 18 months ago, I miss him every day. Now it's my turn to take care of mom like she cared for me. Thank you mom and dad for everything. It is now my privilege to care for you.
Do your parents read your CZcams comments
@@Strawn149I think it's more or less a rhetorical statement. Hes expressing gratitude
For everyone else to realize, not his parents. He's hoping that other people who read his comment We'll understand and feel the same way about their parents.
Damn the defense was dumb. "You were bigger than him, why didn't you overpower him?" He had a damn knife and was able to overpower his own father!
Vinnie is a beautiful man with a beautiful heart and his ability to lead you thru a story is unmatched.
Please. He's a reporter. Maybe beautiful to his wife.
@@dr.barrycohn5461 I wasn't talking about beauty in the superficial way . Only a man would think something so ridiculous ....
He sounds more and more like Nancy Grace loud and rude
He is a handsome man
Lol
The illustrations are fantastic - really helpful in telling the story. Thank you to the artist. 💜
Unfortunately, so many parents give their children EVERYTHING without having to work for ANYTHING. These kids grow up being entitled adults that go to great lengths to get what they want
☝🏾🙏🏾
This guy was way beyond spoiled. He's missing a soul.
She didn’t have anything and a narcissist got ahold of her naive presence to use and manipulate her to help in his criminality!!!! Good looking guys are common narcissists and they go for the naive! She partaked in the crime to be accepted! She needs to be locked up!
@@LittleOrla
Because he is a sick narcissist! Dumb loser girls fall for that manipulative con a lot! She partaked in toxic relationship and it’s her doing!
Agree 100%. We see it every day.
American Hillbillies.
Deliverance Territory.
I love how most of these killers dont mind taking a life, but they sure are quick to plead for their lives!
23 years on death row? It's time to carry out the sentence.
Its those dang appeals they try to use. Frustrating.
@@dieselboy610 Yes, it is.
I really like the graphics (as opposed to cheesy re-enactments).
My son is one 5' 10" at the age of 12 but he arriived home crying because a small boy snatched his phone..it is not how big people are
It sure isn’t. Because my son is very tiny but he’s mighty. Same with my husband. You can’t use size to determine your strength.
I have a 14 year old that's 5"11 and I have 5 year old that's 65lbs. Both boys both also have ASD, the 5 year old is the bully
Being fat and bullying
All age people bullied .
I have a friend that is 4’10” and she is so feisty, nobody crosses her or messes with her. I remember one time when I was with her, and she was talking to a 6 foot 4 inch mechanic, and after she finished, he turned to me and said, she’s quite a PIP isn’t she! Then he did exactly what she told him to do without another word…and no charge, lol! I’m only 3 inches taller than her, but she can be terrifying ha ha!
As a tall bigger woman that is more sensitive I fully agree. Just because we were given big bodies it doesn't mean that we don't deserve to have feelings, be protected, etc. People put way too much emphasis on appearance.
I'm in shock how STUPID her excuses were. Oh, feel sorry for me. Pity party for herself.
Being under the control of a narcissist is something most people don’t understand. Their usually sociopaths.
@@kimclarke5018I understand it and it’s still no excuse there are times I could’ve made better choices. No one has full control over us ever
@@kimclarke5018 Especially with her being obviously very naive, inexperienced and easily manipulated.
Never know what you will do when blood is all over and people are dead. NEVER!
@@angelwings7930 she wasn’t that after the murders! She was laughing it up on video and had no care at all about others being murdered!!! She wasn’t that naive! Only at first she fell for the narcissist con and kept up loving his evil!
Very sad story but I really appreciate how you tell the story....no excess drama or annoying music in the background...thank you.
I'm surprised at the compassion for Meredith.
Same! The compassion for a killer like meredith moon is appalling and misplaced. Every bit of sympathy should be directed to the innocent victims meredith helped to kill, Mr. and Mrs. Robertson.
Vinnie….. I don’t know how you do it, but between Court TV and all of the shows you narrate, you are one busy man! Thanks
Vinny series covers interesting cases that I haven't seen anywhere else. Very informative, factual & tells the story of true crime in a detail. Looking forward to Vinny's next Accomplish to Murder. Thanks for sharing!
see
p..
If he was supposed to be executed in 2000,why is he still alive? And why didn't they say anything about him strangling and murdering his cellmate in 2008? He is a heinous murderer then and now
what about Meredith???..get a grip Snowflake
Jimmy’s attorney calls him intelligent! Really? One of the stupidest mistakes to make if someone is going to commit a serious crime is to have an accomplice. Did he really think the police wouldn’t offer Meredith a deal if she testified against him? Thankfully, she did
He thought he had her wrapped around his finger😂😂😂
I disagree. People who don’t watch a lot of documentaries don’t understand the week points of how the prosecutor gets you in a criminal trial. Plus, he could see her as an alibi too. Or whatever. And it’s also less likely to believe that a woman would be involved in a murder than a man.
He was SO SMUG all through the trial ....right up to the moment the jury came back with the DEATH penalty .... then he cried like a baby ......speaks volumes for the coward he is .....
What disturbs me is that she could't report his intention to the authorities before he killed them, but at the court she's crying with so much emotion.
Without evidence? Even so, had he been arrested for wanting his parents dead, Meredith would have been a victim of revenge, I think.
I totally agree. He had not committed a crime yet so how is she expected go tell the police what he says he plans to do & what can they do? Let him continue with his plan & after he murders THEN he can be punished. Most likely his list of victims would have been more than just 2 people.
Let this be a lesson to ALL Parents who spoil and don't hold kids accountable for their mistakes. Bad behavior rewarded is bad behavior repeated
I am always saying this!!!! Thank goodness someone else with some semblance of common sense!!! ⭐️👏
Made me think about an incident with my (then) 3 year old son; he had dumped his Lego blocks all over the floor. When I told him that it was time to tidy up...he said, "no!". I gave him one chance, then took his hand and forced him to pick up each block. He was tearful (and my back was broken) by the end of the excercise, but he never did it again...and he learned that actions have consequences. I always tell that story when new parents express fear about child rearing.
When I see parents dealing with disobedient children, I wonder whether it is the result of early errors. Always follow through with your words. Obviously, it would have been easier (in the moment) to have picked up the blocks myself.
AMEN! 👏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼🙌🏼! 👍🏼 & what’s w that crooked smile too! 🥴 That little speech he made @ the end, imo, was an atrocious attempt @ regret, or feigning of emotion. He’s a sociopath, or psychopath, & they just don’t understand human emotion. They’re more to be pitied, than laughed @! The teaching, of consequential equivalents, is so very important, as you point out! Take care! …🤟🏼🇨🇦
What a ridiculous comment
U can't be serious have a think about it.
@@loopy1159 😆🤣😂🤣🤣😆
I’ve never heard of this case. So gruesome and evil that a son could do this to his loving parents!!😡😡
Try Grant Amato, Chandler Halderson and Joel Guy Jr. 3 losers who viciously murdered their parents after their parents said enough is enough we are cutting you off financially you must grow up and be responsible.
me either
Never heard of this one either.
Do you ever wonder why we have never heard of this case?🤔 This happened after the Menedaz Murders. I was sick of hearing about Meridith in the role of victim after the second time it was offered up. Meridith had chosen to be with someone who said he'd murder his parents before he murdered his parents.
It's the same old story: parents make the kids financially dependent on them by paying their way. Then they get sick of it, and cut off the kids. Jimmy said he was never held accountable for lots of things as a kid. He was a bad seed to begin with, then he snapped and did the unthinkable. The story doesn't tell you that in 2008 Jimmy was tired of being in solitary confinement, and managed to get himself a cellmate named Hart. He strangled Hart to death in their cell. I believe the brother Chip was involved. Giving parties in the dead parents' home using black lights to highlight the blood. How disrespectful and ghoolish. Brutally beating your own parents to death with a baseball bat and clawhammer is so disgusting. He should never see the light of day again.
A narcissist obviously!
Yes, to some point. At some point the boys were going wrong. They needed help. They were not poor. More of yet another wake up call to parents. Get your kids help when young. Create bonds with your children and help them train to develop skills that will translate into jobs.
He went to prison at one point, right? Again, to help your kid change, you need to be hands on.
A mistake is not getting these kids into support groups and helping them to be consistant.
Wow! He’s evil 👿
"ghoulish" 🥲. He really killed another guy ? - wow! Tell me why the "beautiful man" (see comment above), Vinnie Politan, didn't tell us that! 😂
@@danbaron2561 yes, ghoulish. I have no idea why he didn't disclose that.
Greetings from Finland. Vinnie is The Man. Amazing. Much love. ❤️
Wild swings
Hyper: manic?
Um perhaps it was snorting RITALIN?
😊
Glad for his death sentence. Jury got that right!
That would depend on state laws.
Meredith faced a choice many times in this relationship, she chose to be an accomplice, at the very least she could have stopped this crime by talking to her father or the police. Very little exonerates her.
Meredith could have stopped this when Jim told her what he was going to do & she did nothing that makes her an accomplice
The number one question should be why did you do nothing of course she could have stopped this just by telling Jim she wasn’t going to agree to this. She was never afraid for herself at the time because she was left alone & could have run
"why didn't you run" this guy just literally killled his own parents with her being a witness, it's rational to think he could do the same to her.
Vinnie is the man. The art work on these episodes - fantastic.
I am sure he doesn't do the artwork
@yebo-gogo I don't believe the OP was implying Vinnie did the art work lol
I think Chip was involved. Inherited the money and cared for his brorher because he's covering him too. There's no other reason why he would kepp visiting the one person that took his parents from him.
That is not true. They are siblings regardless of what happened and he may be the only relative left.
I believe he did too. I followed this case and knew Earl.
I don't really feel bad for her. Can't imagine just smoking a cig while two people are being murdered.
She said she ran outside to smoke a cigarette. She could have gone to the neighbors house to call the police. They would still have had time to catch him in the act. She is JUST as guilty.
I brushed up against a murder recently… A close friend murdered another friend. I didn’t sleep - I couldn’t function or think - my mind was in turmoil & my mind & body are still reacting to the emotions connected - it is heart wrenching my disturbing on EVERY level. I will never be rid of the angst & emotions involved - I could never for a second stand by smoking a cigarette.
Meredith did about 11 years in prison, then was released. She got married a while back and lives in Florida now.
She is toxic and likely married another narcissist loser!
And Meredith is still in trouble. I attached a link earlier today but looks like YT deleted it. Her name is Meredith Moon Taulbee.
@@KohalaLover .. She's not in any trouble, I searched her before I made my comment. YT removes all links.
@@KohalaLoverwhat kind of “trouble “?
@@rullvox5912 That's why! I wondered why any comments I post, providing a link don't go through. That's very odd.
Same w/any references to the word "s*ic*de". Podcasters have to jump through hoops in order to avoid using the word as if it's too taboo a subject to speak openly about so everyone has to label people who do, as "unaliving' themselves as if making up silly words will solve anything.
YT is part of the problem when they end up stigmatizing the subject matter instead.
Meredith was so desperate to be liked that she would do anything. The only part her size played was that it made her more vulnerable to his manipulation. I don't feel sorry for her, but I understand her desire to be part of "the normal world."
At 1st she said she went outside to smoke a cigarette. Then she said she couldn't get out the house. Yeah I'm not buying her story 😮
Seriously how do the attorneys not pick up on these simple things
The son, Jimmy , who murdered his loving parents and gave him every opportunity in life to be successful in life but he decided to murder them and should have already received the electric chair! It’s ridiculous they sit on death row for so many years and our tax dollars pay to feed and house convicts like him!! He had much more opportunity to be successful than most of us! I put myself thru college, worked 3 part time jobs and never had time to party like most college students I knew. But it made me strong and I’m glad.
*He was given many opportunities to become successful in life, *...I knew, but it made me strong and I'm glad.
@@January. he was given too much!
@bbe right! They sit in prison,at our expense, allowed to go to school, college while people pay for it, people who couldn't afford to go to college or send their children to college, because they have to work to support themselves and family!! Then after prisoners go to college, learn how to sue everyone who are trying to have the criminal pay for wrong doing!!
You can give a child everything in the world and they can still turn out horrible. My channel covers true crime and we covered Paul Merhige who killed 4 members of his family during thanksgiving. He was a 35 year old loser whose family covered all of his living costs in the very expensive Florida neighborhood of Coral Gables. They gave him EVERYTHING and all he did was blame them and his family for his failures. On thanksgiving, he decided he was going to get even with his family since 'everyone was against him' (they weren't, they distant themselves from him) and killed his twin sisters, a 6 year old cousin and another cousin while injury others. He was absolutely convinced that his family who did EVERYTHING for him, didn't do enough, so they had to die.
The Justice System needs 2 be overhauled it's just awful. The Death Penalty should be put in place nationwide. So many of the Crimes
that have been committed are way
beyond rehabilitation. 3 Hots and a Cot is too kind 4 these animals. Start
first with Child Molesters they don't deserve 2 breathe air. Let's Get this Started...NOW !
Everyone has an excuse and feels bad. NO!!! Leslie Van Gluten (Charles Manson follower) was weak and murdered. Here we go again, just different details. Stop feeling bad for people ending someone's life. Dead, murdered, worm food, never coming back, six feet under, evil again. 100 pounds or 300 pounds, excuse after excuse after excuse. She feels bad...she should feel bad. Her life continues.
Leslie Van Houten
Merideth is just as guilty as she had the OPPORTUNITY to do something to prevent this from happening? She did NOTHING? Playing the victim is so FAKE
yea but she’s not LIFE guilty . 20yrs is about right
@@badazzbarbiePOV 👍
@@badazzbarbiePOVNo she deserved/deserves life without parole
What is the point of death penalty when he's still on death row 23 years later ? What is the point ????
I say the same. But he will live every day awaiting his death penalty.
I agree WTH!! Why is he still alive!!!
How when he’s upstairs killing them, and I downstairs by the door💀💀💀💀
She was in that house & gave him the 2nd knife to finish his dad ! Fearful or not she is guilty for being an accomplice to murder.
vinnie is a legend
Yea he is!
Facts
On facts on facts
The son absolutely deserved a swift death penalty instead on death row for years! His parents gave him a great life and loved him, only to be murdered by their ungrateful son!! 😡😡
For what ?
Thanks for the excellent upload. Never heard of this case before.
The safest thing to do is let your children know they won't get anything upon your death.Tell them it is going to charity.
Not really.
Excellent report on this video,thanks Vinnie and team for doing a great job. To see the monster side of some people is not pleasant, but help us to remind evil exist,and we should be always close to God for protection.
I think the brother was in on the planning. He's obviously reaping the benefits of the parents being gone.
Dr. Ramsland? She’s the professor in the Kohberger case. BTW I’m in South Carolina. Thanks for sharing this story.
22:55 when Meredith testified in how Jimmy manipulated over the of course of their relationship of how she fell into his trap, Jimmy's reaction was priceless. That is how you know she was telling the truth. It is believed that her vulnerability due to facing bullying this person is easy to manipulate and hence why she was more of an accomplice than hero. Listening to her at 28:29 her emotions where true in her remorseful admittance of her role in this crime. 35:38 when Jimmy pleaded for his life there was no true emotion of remorse. He is acting and does not feel sorry for what he did. Glad the jury sentenced him the way he did. He would do this again. His interview with Vinnie was the most honest answers he gave. May Earl and Terry Robertson RIP!
M. Lo>ki>ho ho up lo jo ki ki hi>j hi boi hi hi hi 8iiþ_
At the end someone says "she didn't do the right thing but she did what she could do and she needs to forgive herself for that" How in h*** do you forgive yourself in being an accomplice to murder. No live with it afterall she gets to enjoy her life. Some people say stupid things😞
38:10 no, vinnie…you’re wrong, the prosecutor didn’t call him a greedy man…the prosecutor, actually called him a greedy “little” man.
He tried so hard to produce tears in the courtroom!
Parents should do whatever they can to protect their children, prevent them from doing drugs, and socializing with drug users and convicted robbers.
And abusing them with food
So I’m supposed to keep my kids in the house all the time and never experience anything that life has to offer, parents need to let kids learn and discipline them so they know how to be respectful adults
@@deenaeast7006 Your comment is so asinine and lacking common sense.
Your comment does too but hey that’s life , have a good day
@@deenaeast7006 Doing drugs and hanging out with convicts are not what "life has to offer."
Vinnie is so amazing... He is so heartfelt and cares about these case.
He’s a drama queen and loves overacting for attention.
@@angelwings7930 maybe, but I don't think he is faking it. It's like being an actor in a role they play well because they can relate.
36:38 Everything you need to know about this man is in his reaction to death. The eyebrow lift, etc. Seems to be theatrics. What he thinks true emotion should look like. Scary man. The jury got it 100% correct. Tragic story re: his parents. And to know your child is murdering you?! Unimaginable.
Why is he still being fed and clothed He is using up valuable air
Well, he's right. Life in gen pop max security prison is indeed very harsh.
The defense attorney reminds me of Mr. Rogers children's program from the early 80's
W😁W! Yessss!
Vinnie you could film 100 Accomplice to Murder and l would watch them ALL, you are an OG of true crime. 👏
Really enjoy the program. Thanks, Vinnie!
"Jimmy's parents would have forgiven him for murdering them as he was their child" that's absolutely ridiculous to assume with such conviction. Noylt to mention a fact that's impossoble to verify unless she has the ability to speak to them as ghost in the after life. I just found it terribly inappropriate to interject publicly, considering the gruesome and horrific details presented during trial were Jimmy was unanimously found to be guilty by a jury.
I feel the statement made by the woman after the final verdict was confirmed about Jimmy's plenty was 1000% out of line... I missed if anything was mentioned pertaining to her relationship to the family, but quite frankly, that information is irrelevant.
Vinnie - when where you here in Rock Hill, SC?! Wow, I wouldn’t believe it if I saw you here. So cool!
She was scared … TO LOSE HIM!
23 years after he was sentenced taxpayers had to support this animal I;am sure his parents would have loved to have had that many years at least to live WE NEED TO CHANGE THIS......WHEN APPEALS ARE FINISHED THE SENTENCE SHOULD BE IMPOSED....
The money from the parents should have been split between the two brothers and the one who's in prison should have had to give his money to the state to cover the cost of his incarceration. Given how the brother acted after his parents were brutally murdered, I can't help but think he knows way more than he's saying.
@@littleflower23 when your convicted of killing the people your inheriting money from that automatically extinguishes that clause.
That's an insult to animals. This evil freak is a subhuman monster and should rot in hell.
Jimmy had every single advantage you could possibly have and he chose to be a criminal, murderer and she chose to go along with murdering his parents. Both guilty AF.
Jimmy the con... up to the very last when he pleads for mercy from the jury. Doesn't mean one damn bit of it.
So give every obese young adult a pass? No she needs to get the full extent of the law. She was perfectly happy until they were caught!!!
The defence played on her obesity but that’s not the whole picture. She was psychologically weak, she never fit in and then she this young man came into her life and used & manipulated her. The fact they got a conviction against him was down to her full cooperation with the police. She got 20 years which seems right to me.
@@sionnach3104- She knew what he was going to do. SHE let him use HER car. She repeatedly lied to people, including her best friend. She said she went out to smoke a cigarette she had every opportunity to call 911 and she didn’t.
@@ravenzyblack I didn’t deny those facts but that’s not the whole picture.
Meredith, I hope you get better. He manipulated her and she allowed him. Sad.
Jimmy LOOKS like a monster.
First thing the mom brings up is her weight. I bet that contributed to this whole storm.
Jimmy's "problem" was not a brain problem. Jimmy's problem was a heart and soul problem - sin in the heart.
Lol oh well case solved then thanks Bonnie 🤨
What heart??
I do think little bro Chip knew exactly what went down that night. In fact Robertson's excuse for the phonecall was rather pathetic. Both these boys were spoiled. It has a Menendez feel to it. Its sad listening to him now. He seems alot wiser
Meredith had prior knowledge. She should have held more responsibiliby in the court's eyes. Think of all the felons who didn't participate in a crime but were there with a friend who did, or they were in the same car and were convicted. I think the law went much too easy on her for her role in this.
I have to agree. I think there are lots of other convicted folks who have had similar stories as hers but they get sent to prison and the key is thrown away. She knows right from wrong. I understand being frozen with fear yet I'm sure he shared his intentions to kill his parents multiple times with her so she had time to think about the murders and figure out what she needed to do ahead of time.
And were those other felons remorseful, accept responsibility for their actions and give evidence that helped convict the actual killer without asking for a pea deal like Meredith did? No.
@@littleflower23 ..And were those other felons remorseful, accept responsibility for their actions and give evidence that helped convict the actual killer without asking for a pea deal like Meredith did? No.
Yes she even gave him a knife and she only spent 11 years on prison. And the girl in Seath Jackson case got life without parole
Think about all the people who are an accessory simply by being in a car when a store is robbed or a bank. They are considered just as guilty as those who committed the crime. She gave graphic details about hearing his mother screaming for his father. She was that close.
I’m always amazed that ppl who brutally murder multiple persons , freak out about getting death penalty (themselves fear to die, & loose life or suffer)
Vinnie gets more handsome everytime I see him,love u Vinnie
*every time
Hey Vinnie love ya ❤🇦🇺
Why didn't the prosecutor object to the defense's offensive question about her weight? Why is being overweight considered a sign of bad character? Disgusting.
well, it shows your personality traits, similar to people getting face tattoos… something wrong with the brains of people who do that to themselves voluntarily… in corpore sane, mens sane, as the old Romans already knew…
Shows state of mind
She could have kicked his ass. Use your brain.
The defense was implying that she could have overpowered jim as she was much bigger..
I’m not buying her story of the helpless victim. She did more than she’s admitted to.
Really like your coverage of these events. Thank you.
👏👏👏i dont care if he was my son i would not forgive him.
As terrified as she probably was (Meredith)....she could have run out of the house to get help. That's where she made her greatest mistake. Psychologically.....she was frozen in fear. The day she met and "hooked up" with that creep...she became a victim.
BS, she could have left him at any time!! And she should! But she’s served her time and I hope she’s having a better life now.
Yes
I was young, involved, married
Id never ever do anything i did not want to
Still dont at 60!
This is probably the first time I listen to a story and go from "well, that sucks" to "b*tch please, cry me a river" when it comes to her.
She listened to him talking and planning about killing his own innocent parents, she listened and did nothing, didn't warn them, didn't talk him out of this, didn't ask the police about what to do. She followed him, helped him, and literally handed him a weapon. At no time did she dial 911 or scream to warn the parents, she didn't try to run, call for help or even an ambulance.
I know she had low self-esteem, because she was on the bigger side, and she probably felt like he was "the one" and was willing to ignore all the red flags... But that's not a valid excuse for a double murder. And personally, 10 years per human life seems very low.
@@annak8755 with you on your comment 💯
You speak from a place of rational thought with which I agree. That being said, he was a predator looking for prey. Why did he befriend her? He saw her as the weak one of the pack, the easy one to bring down. He isolated her and sunk his teeth in so she could not move away. While she went to prison, it may have been the most free she had ever felt. We can only hope that in that time she learned to be her own person in a mutually beneficial relationship.
For his part, he sounded reasonable in the interview for this program . . . but that is what manipulators do.
Her sentence was a gift. System needs a heavy duty overhaul!
reminds of the chandler halderson case
I can’t believe he did that to his awesome parents. They were very loving, hard working and very involved with their sons!! To think he burned his dad in the fireplace is so gruesome!! He’s just evil!!
Without the stupid girlfriend accomplice
Or Grant Amato.
BIPOLAR DOESN'T MAKE YOU MURDER YOUR PARENTS!
Really well done - interesting case. Thanks!
I can understand her actions. Okay, she was no hero. She was brainwashed and paralyzed. ❤🙏 for her recovery. Jimmy? Full blown psychopath.
U mean JIMMY
are you saying vinnie is a psychopath
NOPE- study more...he is a sociopah
@@maryedwards5203 I meant Jimmy.
Vinnie is in fantastic shape
I would love to know- from someone with a legal background who has genuine knowledge- if this young woman would have had the same outcome today, now that there is better understanding of coercive control?
I don’t understand why he wanted her there to begin with. She wasn’t a part of his plan to murder his parents since he told her to stay downstairs. The attorney saying she was bigger than him and therefore could over power him was ridiculous. She weighed more but it doesn’t mean she was stronger. My bet is on the fit healthy male vs. the unfit overweight female.
That's what you call a desperate ploy to make your very guilty defendant look innocent. It doesn't have to make sense.
She was there by choice.
He needed her to give him a ride, like they said.
This girl is insane, they’re both insane.
Good job Vinnie…. I was on the edge of my seat!
Excellent journalism!
No sympathy for Meredith Moon. She put herself in this position.
I totally agree!! But she did serve her time! Jimmy should have been executed by a firing squad years ago. I really don’t understand why electric chairs are used. It’s very expensive, when a firing squad only costs a few bullets. It’s absolutely ridiculous!!
Yes. I think the “poor little fat girl” narrative was sexist and condescending
They make gyms! Not everyone is handed a high metabolism so we work for it instead of murdering ppl because we aren't happy with ourselves
She sat there listening to the murder of two people and even fetched a knife. She could have saved their lives.
@@bluschke52 could she though? I've encountered people who are 6ft 300lbs and they're soft, weak. But then I've met people who are 5'6 135lbs who are strong physically and mentally. Was she wrong yes but if she'd tried to stop Jimmy he would have killed her too. You never know what u would do unless you've been in that situation. Its fight or flight and self preservation. She's paying the price she didn't get off lightly. You get 25 years for murder in the uk
My new favourite true crime teller
The arrested illustration was hilarious 4:59 😂
Who goes on with someone named chip. Chip, what? Off the old block? Short for chipmonk?
Must be a southern thing. Here in California, boy-men with names like Chip, Skip, Petey, Tiny, or Buster would be laughed at.
"Chip", Is Usually A Nickname For "Charles".
The interview with Chip was fascinating. I think there’s more to the Chip situation than he’s admitting, though.
It does suck that they didn’t go ahead and try to arrest the other brother. Who knows, maybe that is such a little evidence that there’s no way to even get it to a jury. But those are some really sick kids. I can’t believe you would show off the blood splatter of your parents murders. I would like to know how much money the free brother is sending to the brother on death row? I bet the brother who is in prison has a big commissary account.
I live in NC , never heard of this case. Thanks for the upload!
By her being overweight is a disadvantage of handling someone due to the fact that she might get tried very easily.. you have to be in physical shape to overtake someone..🤷🏽
Yeah .. Chip got BIG ¢hange! I do think he knew, and has enjoyed $pending. Rest in forever peace Mr. and Mrs. Robertson.
Chip obviously knew what was coming down
