Shantel looked into her daughter’s room before before leaving for work but Riley isn’t there there was nothing suspicious about it though this is why she didn’t see classes at school started at 7:45 and the girl could already go there the piano school was located just a few minutes walk that’s why she got there on your own About mid-afternoon my mother received a call.
from school and they said that Riley missed a few lessons This was a little alarming shantel but she still didn’t see in this is a cause for serious concern her daughter might have just missed it a few lessons and go for a walk with friends for about half an hour grandma Riley was already starting to worry about the girl should have returned home but she was done It wasn’t there yet then she contacted Chantel and at that moment the mother already suspected something’s wrong called or wrote to her to ask for time off
go somewhere with friends after school but that day she did not receive her daughter either single message her mother sent her several messages and they all did not reach the addressee then she I tried to call her but every time went to voicemail it said that Riley’s phone either discharged or for some reason was turned off Gentil also called her own father piano in the hope that the girl could go to him, but he also doesn’t contacted daughter that day mother asked my grandmother to go to school and Granny went there to look for Riley
there but she was unable to find the girl None of the teachers knew where she was either. maybe around 5:00 pm shantel decided I came to school to take time off from work but she also discovers her daughter in the parking lot She noticed her boyfriend and asked if he had seen the relay However Haydn stated that he spent the whole day in out of town trip and didn’t even get in touch together they walked around the entire territory schools were searched in the building itself and on surrounding area but the girls are nowhere
was not After some time mother decided to go home in the hope that the piano could return there, alas, there it is there wasn’t either after waiting some more time she accepted decision to contact the police by that time the girl’s father arrived in Berkeley Springs and went searching daughter he traveled all over the small town asking people you meet if you saw they are royal with a population of just over 600 people most of the residents knew each other friend one of the places said that he saw her Walking down the street Unfortunately this
the information didn’t help in finding Riley researchers thought it was a boy just made a mistake the police quickly began searching along the way, we ask everyone we know girls None of her friends saw she did not appear at the piano that day the school has several teachers noted that she was present at their lessons at first this introduced the detectives to misconception but it soon became clear And these the teachers just didn’t notice the girl’s absence and noted her from conversations with friends relay
the police began to restore chronology of events They found out that on the evening of May 7, the girl communicated with her guy on the phone until half on the eleventh and also answered friends for messages on social networks until midnight what follows is very strange 5:40 morning piano called her boyfriend on video call, but he was sleeping at that moment and didn’t answered the detectives immediately suspected something was wrong Why did Riley try? contact him at such an early hour the girl’s mother assured that the piano would never
I wouldn’t run away from her house because of this there was simply no reason given that she was the eldest child in the mother’s family treated her very kindly almost never forbade walking with friends or boyfriend allowed her to do anything time to go to my father in another city and generally did not control her every step The only thing Riley always said and asked her about her plans resolution considering that at the time of disappearance the girl was only 15 years old.
She had no driver’s license so she also doesn’t could leave the city on her own car This once again indicated that the escape version looks unlikely instead the detective was considered Kidnapping as the most probable theories that same evening when mother played the piano contacted law enforcement agencies they started searching for the girl police searched the school and surrounding area territory and also combed the city they joined them very quickly local volunteers who were not indifferent to the fate of the piano as is usually the case with residents of such
small towns think it’s okay this can’t happen to them soon the police decided to search bedroom piano and 1 creepy one was waiting there evidence on the pillow and simply not found small blood stains these things immediately sent to a laboratory where experts DNA analysis was carried out and it was determined that the blood belongs to Riley the moment everyone realized what happened to the girl something really terrible happened if her family hoped to the last that the piano went somewhere on its own initiative then after the discovery of blood
these hopes have crumbled here it is worth clarifying why the mother does not I noticed traces of blood when I examined it daughter’s bedroom a few hours earlier the bed was made and she didn’t come to head the idea to lift the blanket This Nakhodka indicated not only that that the girl was most likely exposed attack all this happened right in her house and the police had to find out who could do it after the discovery of traces of blood scales searches increased in the following days More police joined dozens of volunteers and also
provided various equipment which may be useful when area survey at some point I even had to become a detective make a request to the public stop bringing equipment into the area because it was already in abundance In addition, the police repeatedly gave press conferences to convey this history before the general public always there’s a chance someone might have noticed something strange to hear suspicious conversations or bump into potential evidence therefore for the police it was important that all residents of the district knew
about Riley after some time to the local police joined FBI Ministry Homeland Security and State Police together they continued to search for the missing girl but there are no results brought On May 15, law enforcement agencies decided attract additional forces and organized a large-scale search covering a wide area many kilometers around the city and in the morning the next day they announced that they managed to find the body of Riley Crosman it was about 40 minutes drive from Berkeley Springs near the country road
road near the top of a small mountain detectives immediately realized what they had dealing with murder they are dealing with the unfortunate by chance it looked like an unknown criminal tried to hide the body is as far away from strangers as possible eye medical experts have studied the whole and confirmed that this is indeed a rally They just couldn’t install it.
cause of death due to severe decomposition It was very strange because from the moment the girl’s disappearance took a little longer weeks apparently the killer did something wrong with the body investigators note that several weird moments first on girls there was only one shoe 2 and I succeeded find nowhere nearby secondly they concluded that the unknown the criminal changed her clothes because they there was information that the Girl should was wearing leggings and a sweatshirt while when discovered there were
shorts were also found on her clothes traces of whitewash or plaster the police reclassified this case as murder and now they had to find they questioned everyone again about the culprit relatives and friends of Riley and noticed something strange in Andy’s testimony Mack Cauley’s roommate Shantel do not match with another person’s story it’s me worked at a construction site in a neighboring town hergiswil originally He told the police that on May 8th, Riley’s birthday, he workplace from morning until evening
However, on the same day around 10:00 a.m. his neighbor noticed a green one in front of the house Dodge pickup truck the neighbor knew that this The car doesn’t belong to Andy or Shantel moreover, India had temporarily driver’s license revoked given all this the neighbor asked shantel who is she the car was doing in front of the house but the woman was not aware after as usual fan or became known throughout the city a neighbor decided to share this observation with the police detectives questioned India again they
found that the car data belongs to one of his colleagues work and the man had never ridden it before the owner of the pickup truck often stopped by to pick up Andy in the morning to take him to work learning what the police know movement who day India changed readings he stated that in fact he took Pickup truck and drove it to buy prohibited goods substances to later take with colleague settings after some time he changed again testimony and said that he stopped by substances to your home after which back to work
all this already looked very strange but I was expecting even more detectives terrible discoveries to begin with talked to the piano’s mother and asked I don’t remember Liana noticing any strange behavior of your partner then she said that May 8th is the day Andy’s daughter’s disappearance is real acted suspiciously when he returned home that evening shantel told him about the missing piano the man immediately said that he would go in search of her, he got on his bike and left, however, when the woman will return mine from
search, she discovered that Andy was in no way no matter what, he sleeps on the couch this behavior was very strange Relay’s relatives combed the streets until late at night they were helped by caring residents of the city and India at this time just went to bed like nothing happened In addition, one day after the disappearance girls shantel called Andy and I recorded this conversation Unfortunately for him full contents not disclosed it is only known that shantel is already in that moment India began to suspect and
connected all this with his addiction to prohibited substances then the police spoke with their colleague India and found out what really the man was absent from work for approximately from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm In addition colleague said that in his opinion Wendy s were originally for substances Therefore, there was no point in him going anywhere After that, detectives found them this very green Dodge was found in the trunk has a large dried stain plaster the examination showed that this is the same substance that was found on
Riley’s clothes investigators also led to a pickup truck service dogs who discovered corpse smell in the trunk They also found several pretty ones in the car specific bolts that are rare settings are used in this case 2 exactly similar bolts were found nearby from Riley’s body Soon the police found another one inconsistency in the testimony India they studied recordings from cameras in nearby settlements and found out that on May 8 the man was only there for how long kilometers from the place where they will later find
Reilly’s body he was caught on store cameras gas stations and several traffic cameras all this was very strange in India usually had a driver’s license other people gave him a lift and he moved around on a bicycle and on this day for some reason reason I took someone else’s car and drove for half a day on it the pony follows the usual route another colleague told police that 8 May India Asked him for 3 construction Teddy bear where is the taxi you were also contacted by your ex colleague India who told even more
creepy story He told that they they never got along with him, however, with about 2:00 am to 4:00 am on May 8th these called him several dozen times he also sent a whole bunch of messages he was in a panic and said that he needed it urgently need to hide it with someone India explained this by the fact that he had he eats prohibited substances and he he’s afraid he’ll get caught by his ex his colleague didn’t let him in that night but later reported this story to The man told the police in his own defense that he took prohibited substances in that
night after which I noticed a parked a police car not far from him home and panicked just in the police department checked this information and found out that none of them there were no cars in that area this meant that the story of India is ordinary lie all of the above enough for the police arrested in India the day after discovery of the body and presented it to him The man denied murder charges his guilt therefore the case was transferred to court after this the case stalled for more than 2 years since the trial began
only September 27 2021 wine and there is tired coronavirus and associated restrictions and features of the US judicial system where such delays are the norm however, during the trial Even more creepy details have been revealed this matter to begin with shantel in his speech told one disturbing detail about on the evening of May 7th that day she returned with work at 10:00 Andy was sleeping on the sofa when she entered the man’s room immediately woke up seeing His shantel eyes immediately I thought that he took prohibited
substances I used my pension before strong drugs and even had criminal record preservation What is the woman talking about? knew perfectly well further the prosecution revealed information about alarm messages sent from Riley’s phone shortly until disappearance On May 7 at 11:00 pm the girl wrote to my boyfriend that India just walked in to her room 12 minutes later she sent another message where wrote that she was scared no more got in touch with him Unfortunately at that time Haydn had already gone to bed and did not see these
By morning the messages had already been deleted At the trial he also said that Andy repeatedly entered the piano room in that evening the girl was talking to her boyfriend on video calls and Gaidin heard him comes into the room India asked her to wash the dishes and said about some other everyday things but Riley she was definitely afraid of him, she was not a guy switch off while India is in her room At the trial it also turned out that India rang the piano several times at about 3:00 am but she didn’t answer the phone
the third time and completely blocked him the room was all very creepy unclear according to the prosecution Andy made these calls to check is the relay communicating with its boyfriend in that moment later data on these calls were deleted from both phones Well cellular provider they remained despite all this from the prosecution there was no evidence to indicate that what happened that night they It was assumed that India killed Riley late at night, waited until morning and went to work after that he borrowed a car
Collegium Came to the House, took the whole and took him to a secluded place then he cleared the history calls from her phone and got rid of At the trial it also turned out that Chantel and my own mother India not only knew about his addiction to illegal substances they also knew that under their influence the man became aggressive and dangerous the final court hearing took place on 5 October 2021 Despite the fact that everything the available evidence was circumstantial and not directly linked India to the murder
the jury returned a guilty verdict he was found guilty of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment the question of possibility of early release Indian lawyer asked to give them the client has this opportunity after 15 years But ultimately the judge accepted decision on life sentence without opportunity to leave early while the judge announced the verdict not showed no emotions at previous meetings he also looked distant and not interested Apparently he accepted the inevitable But what about Motive due to degree of decomposition experts
could not determine whether it was Lera or be subjected to violence but this option is the most obvious, even though the court does not managed to prove it This is history was actively covered in the American media and people’s opinions were divided some placed some of the blame on the mother the girl who brought her into her house convicted drug addict and built with him At the same time, she assured the family at the trial that The thought of that Andy could harm her children others came to the mother’s defense considering
that she couldn’t be so big Scott part of the time she worked two jobs work to feed the family and maybe she didn’t even have time think about how its solution can influence on her children is not entirely clear there remains a moment with that video call perfect from Riley’s phone curtain 5:30 am was the girl still alive at that time? moment or call made by India to confuse the investigation later What do you think? Should I blame shantel in a similar situation Tell me what you think and don’t forget rate this video
Stay safe and thanks for watching.
