So his mom would lock the bedroom doors at night because she was scared of her own son but had the audacity to claim that her son’s victim was being dramatic? Ok

He didn’t walk her home, he held her hostage until she got home. Big difference.

When the investigator is chuckling at Todd's jokes, he pauses mid laugh and says, " And that's after you shot him?" and Todd says "Yeah!". Clearly the investigators know their psychology. If they treated him like the monster he is, he would clam up and wouldn't tell them anything. They're giving him the validation he's been begging for so that he'll spill his guts. I agree that taken out of context it is very upsetting. But these detectives are doing everything they can to build a case against him and bring the families justice.

I can't believe he had a degree in COMPUTER SCIENCE and still didn't know technology..

Any murderer that gets caught by being bad with tech is so satisfying, especially when they are overly confident of their capabilities.

The fact that he committed such a sexual and violent crime at SUCH a young age, to me, just proves he was never going to stop. People like that, who really show no remorse l, should be in prison forever

it's disgusting that all the Dr Phil videos have 'allegedly' in their titles, she was clearing kidnapped and those things really did happen

The police calling her “Sweetie” and “Honey” to reassure her is making me sob

I feel like the interrogator laughing along with Todd isn't because he is a terrible person and finds Todd funny. I think he's trying to build rapport and so he can get Todd to admit to as much as possible. I know it seems callous and disrespectful, but if I were a victim of Todd's I would rather the police keep him talking so Todd will admit to everything, rather than them ending up shutting him down and jeopardizing the case.

I understand why the detectives laughing and joking may come off as really cruel but when you’re dealing with someone like Todd he was so proud of his crimes, the detectives really wanted to match that energy to get the most out of the interrogation. in that moment, their goal is to get a full confession

"oh he's just a creepy white guy, what else is new"
i internally laughed

The way the interrogator stopped mid-laugh to say "this is after you shot him" I think kinda shows that the interrogator knew he was so proud of himself and wanted people to see what he had "accomplished" that they could get a confession, not find it funny.

Tod: Doesn’t wanna raise suspicion
Also tod: let me just post weird things 😜 just for goofs and gags😁

hailey: “todd was made fun of by a little girl because of his hair so he took out scissors-“
me: oh cool so he’s just gonna cut his hair
hailey: “ -and he stabbed the girl who made fun of him”
me: OH NO

This was an emotional roller coaster for me but when the cop says “i need you to stand up and put your hands behind your back” and then everyone is like “he’s already handcuffed” i cracked up like the moment is so intense and that happens

The villain no one talks about is his mother. She knew she raised a monster, yet she tried to hide it.

“A creepy white guy, what else is new?” Lmfaooooooooo this made the whole video 😭😭🤣🤣

he's laughing and making jokes to make todd feel comfortable and like he is winning him over. he clearly wants to believe hes charming so he lets him believe him.

I was 11 when my neighbor, who was a grandmother to me, was murdered. I was the first person in her home. I had to testify in court and all that. I couldn't care less how any authorities interacted with the murderer. They got information from him and he was convicted. There was closure and justice was served!!

Sexual predators are never cured and should never be released from prison. The public deserves to be protected from people like this.

The interrogators are doing exactly what they need to do for this specific criminal. I know it’s jarring to watch, but a ton of psychology goes into how those interviews are conducted. I highly recommend JCS channel, the do an incredible job of explaining it all

If you watch JCS Criminal Psychology here on KRplus you’d be able to tell instantly that they were doing the “good cop-bad cop” method and trying to gain his trust so matching his energy was a great tactic. He was basically begging to tell his crimes as he showed many times with the Facebook status’, Amazon reviews, etc. They knew exactly how to go about it.

Hairstylist here: you can't repair split ends. It's not possible. You can only trim them off before the split runs farther up and breaks off.

that woman was so brave. she didnt even worry about herself she just wanted him to get what was coming to him. she was so with it. its amazing, she didnt want him to get away with it then or ever again

Love how rapists get a few years in prison, while their victims spend the rest of their lives in torment. You can really steal someone's soul and just get a slap on the fucking wrist. No wonder it happens so much. It's basically encouraged.

"This guy was on amazon and was like 'I love the dark web'"

I DIED at the Amazon line 😂 "OMG I love the dark-web!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I feel like I must have a skewed view of adolescence. I made mistakes and had my first child at 15 and had an apartment, full time job, and my own car raising a child alone by 17.
That son is now 15 and I realize how different we are. He gets to be a real teenager and that's the best gift I could give him. ❤️

"This guy was on Amazon like 'Oh my god I love the dark web'"
I died.

I know this video surronds a serious topic but it just makes me chuckle how Todd used his Amazon reviews and wrote them as if they were going to be posted on a dark web group chat wall.

My heart clenched at the clip of them finding her. I hope she's doing well now.

In regards to the detective laughing along with Todd, it's the detective's job to make the criminal feel safe/comfortable/etc if that's the approach they need to take. Kohllhep obviously loved talking about the things he did, which was obvious to the detectives. It's common to see the detectives playing along or comforting the killer to gain his/her trust.

The Kurtis Conner “pardon” reference had me chuckling

the footage of him saying “i have no idea what youre talking about” omfg he is insane

Kala is such a strong, bada*s woman for immediately confessing everything to make sure she got her chance to. I’d imagine those things would be hard to say. I hope she has found some peace ❤️

Honestly Hailey you’re so chill and it’s so fun to watch your videos. I work in retail and on my super slow days when I’m by myself I’ll listen to your videos while I fold, dust, etc. just to pass the time without being bored out of my mind. You’re so relatable too you make it seem like it’s just us hanging out and talking about crazy serial killers. I’m not one to comment things like this on these kinds of videos so please keep doing what you’re doing. We’re all living for it. 💕

As someone who's gone deep deep into criminal psychology, I understand the flinching at the jokes towards the victims, but you have to understand that this is just how these psychopaths think, and in order to truly understand and build rapport in these questionings you have to go deep, no flinching back. Their minds are unyeilding and disgusting in their disregard for human emotion. I highly recommend the book The Murder Room by Michael Capuzzo as some supplementary reading into criminal psychology, and general detective stories. Just my take.

he was a realtor and helped my parents with our moving process when i was around 5 years old. he was inside of our house ALONE with my mom for hours going over everything. however, my dad is a police so i like to think that scared him from doing anything to her. such a crazy and close to home story!!!!

Wait...2 college degrees, pilots licence and real estate license?? Man has had better opportunities served to him than me and I have never served 15 years in prison for rape.

Lowkey shook cuz I said ‘bless you’ after Hailey sneezed you actually got a thank you😭

I understand your viewpoint on the interviews but honestly: cops are not your friend in an interview room. That cop was manipulating the perp to get a confession. Cops will say anything to get you comfortable with them so they have something to use against you in court. He confirmed about 3 times in that little laughing scene that the perp killed that man. He got 3 different confessions that he indeed shot the man in about 45 seconds just by making a simple joke. He wasnt trying to be disrespectful to the victims he was trying to get as many confessions as possible and get justice for as many people as possible

kayla was so brave, holy shit. the calm she had when the police found her, i'd be wailing.

it sounds callous, but the victims feelings do not matter more than a confession. Those detectives did an excellent job while they were probably throwing up in their mouth‘s. What they did would be incredibly difficult to pull off convincingly

I’ve watched at least a video a day of yours since I found you a few weeks ago during my Covid battle. And I wanna tell you how calming your voice is. I appreciate you stumbling over words and making mistakes and still embracing and posting your videos. You’re a human and I adore it. Also you’re make up is so simple and beautiful, you literally accentuate your features and I love it. I do hope to see you do some wild looks though! I’ll stay tuned!

even if i'm no police fan, that truly was an interrogation tactic. after studying psychology, i know it's very clever to match someone's energy to get something out of them.
works as positive manipulation as well, when you socialize with people and want to quickly create a bond.

Who else thinks hailey makes their friday 10x better

I’m binge watching these while I paint bc I love the way you tell these stories! I used to not understand how people get so into true crime but these are amazing

Ok here’s the deal- you’re freaking incredible.I’m a newer subscriber and I’ve been binging all of your content while going to the gym. I cannot get enough. You do so much work and your effort in these videos does not go unnoticed. I appreciate how you can joke and make fun of your errors instead of just editing them out. You’re amazing, I love you, keep it tf up.

I actually said "Bless you" when you sneezed and was shocked when you responded with "Thank you" 😆

watching the footage of her being rescued broke my heart.. God bless her. even though she was probably terrified she was still cooperating and telling the police everything she knew.. she is so strong

Heart breaking how quick she was rattling off what happened oh my gosh, she thought about those words for MONTHS

I love the part about the mom putting locks on her nine year old son's door and her own bedroom door because she is scared SH**less about her own kid, but when he sexually attacks a 14 year old girl she blames the girl rather than her son. WTF?!!

I cannot express how much I look forward to Friday's because of you. I've been going through a tough time recently and your videos allow me to escape and forget all about what's going on. Even if it's just for an hour

Comment about the interrogator laughing with Todd.... They're actually geniuses. Did you notice the forced body behavior? Lifting his arm to his head while he asks ;"so that was after you shot her ?" Laughing along while taking allllll the important notes that Todd doesn't even realize he's giving him. Pretty cool to see detective work like this in action instead of forcibly portrayed on television. My heart goes out to these families, if only all terrible people like this were equally as stupid as Todd.

My first video and I instantly was hooked cause your room took me back to my own bedroom in the 90's. I literally "awwwed." Great storytelling too! Love it! 😘

I love the whole look; you really rock those braids🥰 I really enjoy your content and your delivery especially. I can tell you’re gonna be one of my favorite channels. Just had to let you know lol🖤

Also the way this sweet girl launched into everything that Todd did. Props to her. She must've been terrified, she was definitely traumatized, and the first thing she did was give a run down of all the crimes she witnessed.

I'm diagnosed with depression, anxiety and psychosis by the doctors growing up, sounds tough. But I've never thought about harming another person besides the thought of taking my life time to time. Sometimes I think people who do harsh acts with "mental problems" are just genuinely evil. And no doctor can make an excuse for it. Your actions make you who you are.

Just stumbled across your channel. I love that you can get distracted but stay on course at the same time 🤍 you don’t drag out the story or make it about you or your feelings, very professional and if I’m honest I’m gonna subscribe because I really appreciate your storytelling style ☺️💫

Whats terrifying about this is how incompetent the police are.... right now there is alot of missing persons in my country... this makes me feel really hopeless ☹

The reason they couldn’t diagnose him with psychosis is because he was in reality enough to know what was going on and what he was doing. I’ve been in psychosis before and you really have no comprehension of reality, hence it being the main symptom. So if Todd didn’t have that symptom, he wouldn’t fit the criteria. Therefore wouldn’t get diagnosed

Hailey *sneezes*
Me: “Bless you”
Hailey: “Thank you if you said bless you “
Me : :-)

thank you for being the only content creator i can count on to talk abt things that put me to sleep. true crime shows is what i have to watch to fall asleep and your non-10minute videos actually help me fall back asleep. i love u mom

I am OBSESSED with your channel. I love watching KRplus while getting ready in the morning & this is perfect

imagine murd3ring four people because they hurt your ego.

I'm glad she received all that money. I hope she can leave a more comfortable life now, and not have to worry about financials while trying to work through her trauma.

This all happened right down the road from where I lived. It was insane but I’m glad that the poor girl was found.

Girlie you did your thing telling this story I definitely was creeped out watching this but was enjoying it at the same time. Great video 👍🏽

This is why Friday is my favorite day of the week-

its a tactic by the detectives to make the perp feel comfy.. notice how while he was joking with him.. he actually got him to admit it was after he shot him, got him to admit details about what happened, and overall gathered information.. i would put money on the fact the cop was putting on an act and was disgusted the whole time.

your room is so cozy love the overall vibes

Ngl I lowkey watch ur videos whilst doing my makeup and getting ready to go out or just whilst I'm getting ready or doing chores or some work. It's so interesting to listen to whilst doing stuff.

Just for clarification, the interrogator laughing with Todd wasn't really getting along with him -- it's an interrogation tactic. He's "befriending" Todd to lower his defenses and make him talk more. They only have a limited amount of time to get as much information out of the criminal as possible. If the criminal asks for a lawyer, that basically shuts the police down and makes it where they can't keep getting information (because the lawyer will advise the criminal doesn't speak). So if the police officer had snapped at him and (rightfully) told Todd that he was being awful, Todd likely would have clammed up and demanded a lawyer, vs continuing to spill information that would convict him later.

Being able to lie his way through life and being able to work a pretty good job after 15 years jail time really shows what privilege can do for you.
I watched another video on this guy but they didn’t have that first portion of his SA in the video. If he was anything but a young white man, he would not have been able to talk anyone into believing his 15 year jail time was a misunderstanding. That alone to me is wild

I live not too far from where this took place, and personally know a detective that worked on the case. You retold the story so well, and I even learned new facts that even I MYSELF didn't know!!!

Getting a Realtors license with a felony conviction, and as a registered seggs offender is damn near impossible. Getting a pilots license from the Department of Transportation and the FAA, is even more impossible. This man was an amazing chameleon. Super clear signs of being a psychopath or sociopath, they can mimic perfectly.
They. Are. Fucking. Terrifying. Period.

i’m so happy how fast you’re growing. i love that you only post once a week because it shows that you’re putting your own mental health as the top priority instead of pumping out videos every day. love you so much and i’m so happy for your success

the thing i like about you (other than everything!!) it that you dont just let this stuff bring you down, from atleast what we see. you dont seem super overjoyed, or too like depressed by it

Totally said “Bless you” and you threw me off when you said “Thank you”! Now i feel completely compelled to SUBSCRIBE because the last video you said “costed” and as i was caught off guard by you saying that, you chimed in on a separate edit correcting yourself so i then started to google “costed” as you chimed in again on a another edit because you said it twice at this point and had looked it up yourself and found out it is in fact a word. I would like to add that i enjoy the way you deliver your content in a calm yet intriguing tone that the first video i watched by you was during a massive panic attack and i was seeking content to distract myself and 3 hours later.... im hooked, completely calmed and wanted to thank you for that! Plus i really like the “natural” look you are doing with your makeup with the freckles, its giving me great inspiration to try something new which turns my anxiety into excitement!

Girl!!! I just looked you up and saw that you're 19. I'm so pleasantly surprised. Your content on crime stories that I've been watching is always fun, entertaining and you're absolutely hilarious. I love that you make edits when you make mistake, or forget something or try to clarify when you didn't like your delivery. It's such a great way of taking responsibility and accountability, and doing it in a hilarious way. Your story telling abilities are phenomenal and I know you'll just become better as you create more videos. Good on you! I was literally thinking to myself "she can talk about chicken nuggets for an hour and a half and she'll be right, I'll listen to her and laugh at her jokes." I was curious to see how old you are and you don't know me and you probably won't see this comment, but I'm so proud of you. You have a 32 year old fan that giggles at your silliness and jokes. Keep it up and stay amazing!!!

The way the interrogators act is an interrogation tactic. Like you said, it's their job to get a confession, or at least get a story that can be compared against other statements from the same person to check for discrepancies. Yeah, to us it seems rude to the victim. But most of us haven't been interrogators and don't know how difficult the job is. I'm sure they were thinking about how awful those discussions were while they were having them, but anything to keep the guy talking. I'm not saying that there aren't any terrible cops; or course there are. Unless we've been in that position, I think we should think twice before judging.

sis I just need to say I love how chill you are! Most of these youtubers are so pressed to get everyone to subscribe, they'll tell us like 20 times in one video, but I HAD to subscribe after your intro because I knew id love your channel (which I've been binging) I feel like we're just hanging out and I love that :)

The whole point of having some detectives play nice with a violent criminal is to form a bond and trust so that they will admit to more crimes. Especially with a man like this. It works. We have to expand our minds a bit and try to understand that this is a part of a very effective process. The victims may not even get justice without this crucial aspect.

with peace and love to floridians… of course he’s a florida man

'This generation doesn't know how to act' coming from a whole *guilty* sex offender? Okay, babe👌🏾

I have never heard of this story. Thanks for covering it.
Side note, I was listening, not watching, when you sneezed, I did say "Bless You", then you said "Thank You". I almost fell off of my bike 🤣🤣🤣

EMPATHY : The ability to understand and share the feelings of another. I believe that may be the word you were searching for .

Grab a drink, grab a snack, even grab your makeup if you want
*Lipstick eating and foundation drinking intensifies*

i can’t be the only one who feels like the camera quality got like 10x better

I understand your concern about the victim's feelings about how the interrogation was carried out but it is important for the interrogator to act all buddy buddy with them to trick them into a false sense of security to get the info. It's part of the psychology to make them feel like they have someone sympathizing with them to avoid withholding the info. Feelings are the least concern. It's more important that they get as much of the information as possible. I think the victim would also know that or be informed of this if they show concern about how the interrogator is laughing about what he's saying.

I can't describe how lucky I am to find this channel. I love criminology and true crime and I find this very interesting and entertaining. Keep doing this!

Interrogators will do that often. Some will play your friend, some will pretend that the perpetrator's actions are their real fantasy, and some will act unbothered or rude. They are not trying to befriend the perpetrator they are trying to get enough tea to sink the perpetrator in court. Thyre doing their job and doing anything necessary to get as much evidence necessary

i teared up seeing the video of that poor girl. she must have felt a serious amount of relief seeing these officers open the door. i hope all is well for her today ❤️❤️

You can totally tell the interrogator isn’t actually laughing, genuinely. He’s getting himself a perfect confession.

I've been watching these before bed every Friday. They may or may not give me nightmares but I love every minute of every video so we must make sacrifices hahaha

Anyone else still wondering why he got his pilot license or did I miss that part?

You are too cute girl!! So glad that I found your channel!!! This world needs more people that are a breath of fresh air, even while talking about such serious issues. Keep on keeping on!! ♥️🤘💋🥰

this is the second video I've seen of yours and as soon as you mentioned Kurtis conner I subscribed like dude your videos are def gonna be a part of my daily routine lolol
also your sponsers are super nice and i might try them out in the future we loveeeee

I think that the interviewer was actually really smart by cracking jokes. Since Todd was known to brag about his kills all the interviewer really needed to do to get a confession was give him some confidence and act like he admires what he did.
