Why is it, for some reason, I'm less likely to believe she slept with him at all, than I am that he murdered her? No idea how they found his "peepee". She deserves a Post Houmas,(sp?) marital medal.

I was a forensic accountant in the oil & gas industry in Houston in the 80s. Looking back, I was in danger more often than not. It was a wild time.

My former boss was in deep financial problems and one day he just up and left taking with him around $50,000 of his dad's money. He left a pretty obvious electronic market (pro tip: don't assume your female workers are idiots at computers) and we were able to follow it as I had administrator privileges. As I listened to this case, it dawned on me how ex boss could have simply killed us before he left. 😭

No gas chambers used in the us now. Just saying. Anyway prosecutors aren’t going to seek the death penalty due to potential mental issues of this maniac.

We making "Todt Family Tuesday" a normal thing?

Amanda Baby-Pie

I know... I usually rewatch these several times, But NOT when they kill the dog!!!

Jojo

Oh no not breezy....

Courtney Marnocha

Great episode! I was a follower on YouTube and only recently found out that you were on Patreon. Promote this more!!! I had no clue.

Shaun Hedeen

This POS used the Christ Watts defense.

SteelMan .

Todt, in German, means Dead. so: The dead family..

I'm really loving the longer videos you have been making!

Tony J Deets

The name sounds vaguely familiar, But before I even looked it up let me guess, She was terrified he was an animal. She did it because she feared for her life!!!! Buuuuutt there's going to be plenty of evidence that shows she had tons of time alone or she could have walked away, Or asked someone for help but she chose to stay because you know..... Stockholm Syndrome, Totally wasn't a psychopath as well, Who totally didn't absolutely enjoy Every rotten scumbag subhuman thing they did. Like the lady that was married to the piece of garbage who held Jaycee Lee Dugard captive for 18 years. When he did a 2 year prison bid for violating his parole, She only didn't let that little girl who he was raping viciously go because you know terrified! It definitely had nothing to do with the fact that she took pleasure in not having to deal with his disgusting sexual proclivities and started to enjoy the power of owning a human being you know because she's garbage. Cause believe me Stockholm syndrome is absolutely real I know that. But you would think after the 1st year of him being in maximum security prison she'd oh I don't know. Call The Fucking Law!!!! And be like Hey this dude's fucking nuts hes got a girl in the shed, We should probably take care of this No? Nothing infuriates me more than these wanna be natural born killer cases where the girl immediately plays victim, Meanwhile typically she's the instigator of the most heinous shit imaginable.

Jenny Hansell

Ummm was he a physical therapist? I would politely walk away

Kyle Leonard

That wink tho.

Celeste Bosco

^^ took me a second and then I literally laughed out loud

Donald Guild

Me too !

W.H. Auden's words have never felt more appropriate: "Evil is unspectacular and always human, and shares our bed and eats at our own table."

Marcie Lee

I love being a patron member. I have watched all the posted videos . thanks for all your hard work

Paula Bernardes-Silva

Thanks, Mike. Have a good weekend!

Karen Vega

I only recently found you, and you are one of my two favorite true-crimers. Thanks for all of the work you put in. Looking for suggestions? Gerald and Charlene Gallego from my hometown of Sacramento CA. I remember their crimes well. Spoiler alert: I believe she is as guilty as him; and she should have died in prison, too.

Jill Vaaler-Jore

Perfect end to a very long day - a Mike video. Thanks, Mike. I always look forward to your videos.

kathleen c

Thanks Mike for another excellent vid!!❣

Lauren Lovecraft

Chris Watts tried that. It went as well as you'd think.

Lauren Lovecraft

My brain finished that name off with "McGoats" every time and I kinda feel bad about it?

Sara N

Agree with Kristina but added psychological element of nature/nurture with his father.. a disturbing but fascinating story presented with your usual flair Mr O.

Kristen Marie

When looking at this, sadly it is the classic family annihilation scenario. Failure at work, debt, investigation closing in. In order for him to save face with his family, he thought the only way to do that would be to kill them.

Kathleen Morgan

Anyone who would live in Celebration is 🥜🥜🥜🥜

Jack McCauley

hellooooo, and thank you

Rachael Wooldridge

Mike, you’re the best. But now I’ve joined Patreon and watched today’s video early. What ever will I do at 2pm?! Appreciate what you do!!!

Zebra

So many stories, so little time ...

Zebra

Dead giveaway! ... ! If I could hug this channel, I would. What the fuck!

Deanna D

"CONFIDENCE!" *ding* Thank you, Mike! It's so unsettling to me, the fact that we really, honestly just never know about people.

Jamie Di

You could probably create a whole channel dedicated solely to medicaid/medicare fraud committed by medical personnel. It happens that often...

Jess Is Blessed

Thanks Mike! 😊

Rachel

27 pages but doesn’t remember anything? 🤔 makes sense

IF I WERE HIS LAWYER: you came home one night. Wife killed the kids. She was crazy with Lyme, depression. Homeschooling and other issues got to her. You snapped. Killed her (manslaughter). Fess up to the fraud. Fess up to killing the dog. You drank you tried to do on Benadryl (you’re a big guy) that’s why you were incapacitated. Fess up to concealing evidence. 20-30 years and you’re out. Now, after that bogus letter, he stands no chance. He’s getting the gas chamber.

Amy Knopp

What a horrific case! He definitely appears to be mentally unwell, surely you would have to be to be able to murder then share a home with your dead family for weeks! Thanks for another great Video Mike.

This World Sucks

He's a psychopath now using mental illness as a manipulation. The weird extreme weight gain I have no explanation for...his face ballooned up like he was on high doses of prednisone.

Fulvia Bottani ni

What an horrific story! That he's a psychopath there's no doubt. You don't murder your whole family if you're sane! However I can't help thinking he's milking the mental health card a bit too much. I hope he gets life with no parole. He's too dangerous an individual to be let out!!!

Andrea V

Mike, you should do the Fotis Dulos case - another Connecticut one - that one's from my hometown. Messed up.

Anita Duff

You have such a unique way of sharing tragic stories. I always look forward to your posts. Great job Mike !

Gabriella Rigoulot

Wow seems to be like his dad. Love being a patron and getting these videos early I listen to them at work

Dave Novis

Mike, I love your intro's... even though you think they suck... they don't. You're the reason I watch, rather than the cases... The cases do help but your presentation style is the reason I decided to support you on Patreon. An honour not many have achieved from me!

David A. Chauvette

Todt is death in German

OK

This piece of sh** thinks that he's the victim. Repulsive

Jane Pohl

Thanks Mike

David A. Chauvette

Clicked on the old Gmail account and low and behold, Mike! My day got instantly better!

David Turney

True psychopath. He'd rather take a murder charge than the deflated ego he's get from losing the admiration of his family. Then blames the wife to try to even get out of that.
