When the 31-year-old mother of two LaJoya McCoy was not answering calls or texts, her family began to worry, and rightfully so. They could have no idea that LaJoya was murdered by her enraged ex Jose Roberto Turner and left in her car just a mile away from her apartment. This week, Savannah explores LaJoya's life, which was filled with love and success, and why this led to Jose Roberto Turner to stalk, intimidate and ultimately strangle LaJoya in her car.

21:41 case begins again
Her voice is the equivalent to a lullaby for adults. Her stories are lesser known and that I appreciate immensely.
Yes! Even though the stories are scary her voice kills me to sleep
@@lynnwilliams8295 exactly my experience too!
I totally agree
Literally fall asleep to her voice every night 😍
Rachel Shannon is amazing too. U can feel the passion she has. ❤️🦋 and doesn’t put adds halfway through a story cause that makes me find someone else🤷♀️
I'm glad this is a "SOLVED" case but it's so sad. My heart goes out to her family especially her children!! It's absolutely sickening that she lost her life to someone who couldn't except reality!! Talk about pure insanity!!
Thank you for doing more POC cases. The way you bring them to life really helps with the stigma. No matter the case everyone is human with dreams and family that loved them. May her soul find peace.
Agreed!
but then there will also be more Black murderers in these Cases.
i dont think it helps the cause of ending Whiteness to have Perpretators of Crimes realistically shown
@@johnnylangen2839 lmao who said ending whiteness… crimes happen to everyone no matter the color. It’s good to be well informed of the many cases out there because someone may know something that can help.
Abusive men never take accountability 🤦🏾♀️
Right because they externalize everything and project their self hatred
This is so very sad. She sounds like such a driven person. Had a lot of success and was going to go on to do so much more. Physically she was also so beautiful. It’s tragic what happened to her.
Cases like this happen way too often. She sounds like she was so smart and driven, it's heartbreaking that he decided to take her life from her.
Definitely not rare cases. What a misogynist, sad he couldn’t accept that LaJoya was smarter than he was(who hurt this man?)
I understand you guys being upset about the amount of ads. I get it, I agree that sometimes it could take focus away from the case. But savannah has to make her coin somehow. Honestly, in my opinion, she’s working her butt off for these videos, and she explains the cases beautifully, so if you don’t like the ads, it takes about 3.5 seconds to tap the screen a few times to skip through them.
Omfg finally someone that gets it jeeeez
I haven’t seen an ad the entire video 🤔
ok i felt the same way but when u have to tap the screen like 100 times to get through the ads i lose interest and focus. like at that point i forgot what we were even talking about before the ads lol
@@gabbybulson3819 agreed! it was over 500 seconds of straight ads which is way more than “tapping the screen for 3 seconds “ any of us that use this app often know that those details are important lol
Most CZcamsrs have ads. People act like it's hard to press skip
Will you look into the Rachel Cooke case from Georgetown, Texas? She went missing in 2002 and has never been found. It definitely needs more coverage, I was born and raised here and the crime rate is so low this is the only missing persons case ive ever heard from Georgetown. Its still the talk of the town to this day and her parents deserve justice. Love you and your videos!!💗
Rachel Shannon did a good job covering this
I have to agree with previous criticisms. The ads are out of control. By the time you get back to the story, it loses something.
Case begins again at 22:13
Thank you
Dude you gotta warn us before random people pop up on your window. Gets me every time 😂
hahahaha
I don’t mind sponsors at all and I never complain about them... but maybe just not so many in one video?
i agree, it feels like i’m watching tv when there’s a 5 minute block just for sponsors right when the case gets interesting
Yea that was alot. I kept fast forwarding it and even then it took forever. Lol
@@idkrachel yeah I mean I’ll still watch because I enjoy her content and how she tells a story but maybe just one sponsor each video? I’m not tryna take away from anyone’s bag but it’s just too much for a short video.
@@SarahChristina exactly how i feel, or maybe she could just mention one sponsor mid-video and then do the rest at the end
I agree i fully get that she needs sponsorship but so many in 1 video and always half way through the story even fast forwarding took ages
I know that there's a lot of people whom keep their personal business very private, but it's SO SO VERY IMPORTANT that there's at least one or two people whom know your everyday basic habits so that God forbid/just incase something happens to you, there's people that can IMMEDIATELY NOTICE if there's something not right/way off so that they can ring the alarm bells.
What a selfish man and to leave there children without parents, how sad
I don't mind ads but my God!! 6 ads?!?! Selfish!!
Such a sad loss. She was so beautiful and smart. She really had a good life going on and his jealous butt didn’t. I so sorry for her and her mom and siblings. I hope he never ever gets out of prison to do this to anyone else. Thank you Savanna.
I really like the ads in the middle of the video with the killer instinct background. Made it very easy to see where they started and ended. I do wish there were less ads or more of the story to tell. But the presentation of the ads I feel made this video much better (:
Im new to the Channel .. And have only watched about two videos so far and I'm not sure I can handle the 20 ads in one video. I've never watched the true crime video with a million ads in a 30-minute video
My thoughts exactly. New to the channel and enjoy the cases I haven’t heard of but I have never in my life seen so many ads in a thirty minute video in my life. Not a fan of that at all.
It’s gotten SOOO much worse lately.. her channel used to do an ad or 2, but now 3,4 and 5 ads is absolutely ridiculous
Skip from 14 mins to 22mins this video is trash with that amount of ads in the middle of a video.
damn more ads than video 😭 my lord
that guy in the window scared the hell outta me😂
I don't understand what the harm in filing the missing persons report the first time would have caused.
What a tragic case 😩💔 I’m so glad it’s solved but also so angry because no one deserves this
I HATE when authorities write off missing adults as "wanting time away" when they have family and friends telling them that's something they just wouldn't do. They act like they know this stranger better than the people who know and love her. It's lazy as fuck
I love your videos but I'm so tired of the FIVE sponsorships in the MIDDLE of the video.
WOAH why so many ads in one shot? you almost lost me there😯💜
Your eyebrows literally look flawless! So excited every time you upload
Way to many ads!!!! Waste of my time hearing the rest of the story
We have this problem a lot with black men who feel frustrated with their lack of success. They get really jealous of their female counterparts and try to tear them down or even bring them physical harm.
Toxic masculinity is in all races. White men will kill too
My situation currently smh
@@mikosue8694
You better run Fast.
I was just searching on your channel for a video that I haven’t watched.. and then went to refresh and bam!!! New video!! Now I can listen with my air pods while I cook dinner !!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼😆
I quit watching for a while... But i decided to come back & see if she fixed the extreme amount of ADs she said she would stop doing. . . Of course, she didnt cut back & its obvious theres no passion about true crime and any care about the families/victims..
It will always only be about the money.
If you say you'll cut back on the amount of ads spoken about once the contract ended- then you should keep your word.
I have never watched anyone that covers THAT MANY ads in one video.
Agree.
honestly she should just put them all in the beginning. it’s insensitive to put them right in the middle as she’s talking abt a real life tragic case
So quit watching. I can’t stand people like you who actually take time to complain about her way of making money. Rude.
Alright, you may not know how CZcams works. If she puts these ads at the beginning, she will get a lot less play time, as people are more likely to exit the video if it’s all ads at the beginning.
“It will always be about the money”
Do you have a job? You work to get paid right? You probably wouldn’t work where you do if they didn’t pay you. This is her job, views and likes gets you about the amount of money it is for a simple car payment. I follow her on socials, and she doesn’t do many ads or sponsors on there, so doing these ads may be ONE of her primary incomes.
There’s literally so many true crime you tubers, so many. If you like the way Savannah explains the cases, you’d be willing to either sit through 5 minutes of ads or simply just skip them. If you can’t stand the ads, instead of commenting a rude comment, I’d just find someone else to watch. Simple!
@@CaffeinatedInFL Its not rude. She made that commitment a while ago she wouldnt cover as many ads. Nothing wrong with ads.
But when you cover ads in the middle of a video after she talks about little kids getting murdered BRUTALLY.. (Previous video when she finally addressed it and said she would stop doing that. & the contract was almost over).
Thats so messed up. Imagine if your family member/child was murdered & someone covers the case awareness.. Then all they cared about was money because they knew the death was so tragic it would draw people in... Then to throw ads in the middle (because if the ads were in the beginning, no one would want to watch you. Because its disgusting to cover that many ads and make it about money when peoples lives were taken so harshly.)
Its inhumane. Cover one or 2 ads BUT that many? Thats just not fair to the family.
I did quit watching & I said, I came back to see IF she made the promised changes SHE said she was going to make.. She didnt .
She makes money off US sooo were allowed to speak what we do/dont like.
Savannah has the perfect story telling voice lol that’s so hard to find in podcasts but she doesn’t stutter and she makes the story flow so perfectly
The worst feeling is being stalked but can't prove it. You feel crazy. I was stalked for over a year by a stranger and people didn't really get it because he was a stranger. I had to change my whole routine for over a year to get rid of him.
I'm a forensic psychologist & i go from prison to prison & deal with the worst of the worst kind of offenders. Child molesters, child killers, serial rapists, killers, serial killers ect. This case has ALWAYS been one that I wish SO BADLY that I could get into the brain of the perpetrator..
That's such an interesting field! I'm asking out of curiosity-do you need to have a PhD in psychology to do this. Thank you
When she posts I already know I’m about to sit through 8+ mins of adds....
You don’t need to sit through them though. It takes about 3.5 seconds to fully skip through them. I completely get it, I do feel the ads in the middle of the video takes away from the case, but she does an incredible job explaining her cases in my opinion, so if you like her, you’d be willing to skip. She’s gotta make $$ somehow
@@Shaykurtz does it take 3.5 to skip through over 8 minutes of content though? Took me over a minute to tap through, 10 minutes on a 30 minute video is nearly half the video and is a bit overkill
Skip them
So annoying I agree
Please cover the topic of the *215 children* that have been recovered from the Kamloops Indian residential school in British Columbia.🧡💔 these children were identified to be as young as 3 years old...#everychildmatters #residentialschools #recognition #bringpeace #trauma #abuse #genocide #murder #massmurder #horror #sad
please stop doing sponsorships in the middle of the video. such an abrupt interruption. like a commercial or actual ad but sometimes worse.
I literally forget what she was talking about. They are way too long
It’s the 5 minutes of ads for me.. 😕 I love these videos and find your voice very soothing. I also understand the need to make money especially with something you put so much time and energy into. The difference is most people only have 1 ad per video which is quick and can be skipped through without skipping forward for a quarter of the video
This is such a tragic case. I greatly appreciated you covering the case, Savannah. I am wondering how her kids are doing?
Thank you for covering less known cases and giving them the recognition they deserve 🖤
Just finish listen so heartbreaking ..a selfish man instead of thinking the future of their kids😥 i was waiting for new story and this is it. STAY SAFE MISS SAVANNAH AND EVERYONE
While I love listening to your cases you make my anxiety spike talking so fast. Like I gotta grab my keys, phone & wallet & run out the door. FAST. Code red type of emergency lmao
Lmao! I love Sav soooo much too! But yes I need it to be a TAD bit slower. Hard to keep up! 🤣
This is so sad. I really feel for her and her family. There is a part of me that can't help thinking about the fact that she could've been found sooner by parking enforcement. I get that her windows were tinted, but how do you miss a person in the passenger seat while writing that ticket and looking at the Vin number thats through the windshield. So odd.
She was my moms cousin. She deserved so much better. Very sad indeed. 💔
Oh wow what a sad and tragic case. LaJoya seemed like such a smart, successful and beautiful person. This should have never happened to her. My prayers and heart go out to her friends and family. Those poor babies have to live without their mom. May she RIP.
i think the most frustrating thing about this case is that they would’ve known something was wrong if the police did the wellness check correctly the first time:/
putting a 10 minute ad to profit off of someone's death is not a good look for you. disappointing.
Is it possible to use this mic for all of ur content? The sound is PERFECT & super clear.
Keep up the great work girl!!
:(( May LaJoya RIP! Savannah could you make a video on an unsolved case of Xavier Dupont from France! Pretty scary and sad case :( thank you for your consistent uploads Savannah, you've been brightening our days! :) do take care!!
I love this channel these ads killing me 20 mins long
Thank u for sharing this story ❤️💚
Most of the time it's if I cant have her no one else can either.
The sponsors are ridiculous. Stick to one per video 🤦🏻♀️
You 🪨. Love the solved ones. I can’t handle the suspense of not knowing & it always pisses me off knowing someone got away with their crimes.
She was so beautiful!! 💔💔
Love the solved videos.... gives me the peace I need😌
I love cleaning my house while listening brings me so much calm and peace
Binge watching your channel right now, your content is amazing💖
Hello gorgeous!! I hope you are doing well. Glad this is back up! So glad to find your channel!
I wish she had called the police as soon as she started noticing all these red flags. I wish she had moved back temporarily with her family. Maybe she would still be alive.
I hope he stays forever in prison.
We know you see the comments about the ads and you should address them SPECIFICALLY and let everyone know exactly WHEN all of these multiple ads in one video will end
She did address it a couple videos back but she literally doesn’t care, she’s really in it for the money. Trash
@@davidcazun4178 which video please?
she did address it in a video a while back & she also puts the timestamps to skip the ads in the description
Miss her tons! Came across your video. Thank you for covering her story. ~ Eva
Legit just cooked 300 hot dogs for an elementary school carnival while listening to this. My calming videos 😍
This was such an unfair one. She had such a bright future in front of her, it shouldn’t have been taken from her 😞 her poor kids.
People are sooo sick, & I can’t believe what some are capable of.
I’m glad she got some justice. May she Rest In Peace 👼🏼
Love your videos gurlfrannn , keep blessing us ❤️
This is my younger sister story thank you for not forgetting her this was hard to listen to I just
In Florida, when a welfare check is done, the cops HAVE to make contact with that person they’re looking for. They can’t leave, they have to physically see that person and make sure they’re okay. (This is new I believe). I just wish every state was like that
I missed the year this happened but the head shot of ol'dude looks like an 80's head shot
Maybe Jose was upset bc they broke up and she could date again. Also, she was doing good.
Idk why people complain about the ads bc it’s so easy to just skip past them….
Savannah, something is different ... you don’t tell stories like you used to. You okay girl?
Love the videos I’m still here🥰 keep up the good work
Any chance you could do a video on The case of Mollie Tibbetts? Please?
The dude in your window got me fucked up
Glad this was solved rather quickly but most of the time it comes back to being the spouse or ex of the victim.
i love your videos, but girllll the sponserships are wayy too ong
The way he was caught in 4k meanwhile here in the states it's always no footage found , or it is lost, or the cameras don't work, May her soul rest in peace
New episode Love each and every one of them keep at Sav!!
I love love love this series!!!
Sending my prayers 🙏🏻and love ❤️ too the victim family
That man in your window freaked me out anyone else see that ? I hope it’s someone she knows !! Oh lord now I’m worried about savannah 🤔 time stamp is around 22 mins
Review the case of Annai luz Diaz it’s a a similar case to Gabriel Fernandez who suffered torture from biological dad and Step mother from rodeo ca
Heartbreaking story 💔😞
26:59 *“play tonic friends”* [platonic] i love your oft cute pronunciations, resulting in further word explorations. You are absolutely adorable, Savannah. Also, my heart went fright! suddenly at “blood splatter on the walls” [22:18] right behind you, a stranger in the window!
She was soooo successful 🙏🏾😩
I’m confused. Did the sister and mom call the cops or go to her house the day she did not show to pick up her sister? Because it sounded like they waited a few days?
y'all, should i take a shot every time she says LaJoya? 🤔💀
Hey Savannah💗 Thank you so very much for the new video.
So heartbreaking! She was beautiful, smart, successful, driven...this was so senseless! Her poor family and friends. 💔
0:00 : killer instinct intro
0:14 : intro
1:14 : who is lajoya?
1:41 : something to know about lajoya.
2:51 : when lajoya was 20 years old
The thumbnail looks like a before/after of you in black face. I was so confused 😂 I can be a ditz
Wow they put a parking ticket on her car while her body was there the whole entire time?.
Why do people have to ruin other people's lives like that. It breaks my heart.
Please do the randy leach case!!!🌼💜
It's very sad that she lost her life by a person who she thought really would love her and respect her as a lady should be but yet, people let their emotions get the best of them when it comes down to their jealousy... I pray that God will bless her family for their loss 🙏...
Pff sav, i miss my big sister videos i hope u are doing okay! I just wanted to tell u that i miss you and the lifestyle videos! Ily
here I am getting deep into the story and waiting to get pissed off about the ads that everyone is complaining about
Nice cowboy out your window that just disappeared 🤣🤣🤣
what’s a play-tonic friend😂😂 i’ve only ever heard of platonic that bugs me how she says it
Definitely sounds like a misogynist. Once again not surprised this is a patterned offender. Classic case of coercive control, LaJoya was so strong. He was also very forensically sophisticated, but obviously not good enough since they got his prints
RIP sweet girl. 💓 This story....really got to me. Like, made me hurt! Hard to explain, but if something bothers me enough, I'll start to feel ill and that's what happened. What a beautiful, strong, hardworking, and driven young woman, who's life was taken away over.... jealousy? I can't get over his sentence as well, not enough! And death is too easy in my mind, so, if you take a life, you should spend the rest of yours in a cell. My condolences to her family and friends. 🙏⚘💐
