real estate fraud?
The motive is irrelevant.....HE TOOK HER LIFE...HE'S GUILTY!! END OF STORY.
@@mayramartin238The motive is always relevant. You're saying that a man who kills his daughter's rapist is the same as a serial killer. That's ridiculous. This woman played the deadly game of infidelity. She paid the price. Sure he's guilty. But so is she. She gets 2 tattoos of the guy she's cheating with? Nah! That's way way way over the line. Ultimate insult on top of ultimate betrayal. Play stupid games...
Andre’s farther is also charged in Jamaica for murdering both his wife and an ex-wife. His trial starts in 2024. When Andre met Andreen in 2009, he was attending the funeral of one of the women his dad is now charged with murdering. What a pathetic line of men
Wow. Must be cultural
Wow
@StevenAndTraceyJiles it sounds like it is hereditary or he was raised by an evil man and given an abusive example.....cultural is an extreme stretch
@@StevenAndTraceyJilesGenerational, yes. But "cultural" is a bridge too far, especially if you know nothing about the culture.
I guess the apple didn’t fall too far from the tree.
He attacked her dead body because he considered that the fact that he killed her was HER fault. He admitted that himself. That says all you need to know about him.
🎯 maniac
Exactly
That's HIS story he attacked her corpse. He only told them that when confronted with the bloody hammer.
@@TawnyC_ True! I don’t know if he thought that was helping him, which apparently it did. But to me it made him look worse. Days later you are still so mad that you burned her and hit her in the head twice. And he made sure to point out that as he was walking away he came back and hit her in the head again because “it was all her fault”. No remorse whatsoever.
@@tamarinbush6613 Boy, I'd like to think that I was wrong, but within the first 15 seconds I knew that he did it...this behavior is SO common with men...a woman doesn't do what he wants and she "should" pay the ultimate price...they never wonder WHY the woman wouldn't want to be with them in the first place...Sadly, this was a no-brainer...
Last January, my 19 year old daughter was brutally stabbed by her ex..... She was in a coma for some days but thankfully she came out and now she is on the road to recovery... The guy was also the father of my granddaughter........ Imagine that..... The violence against young women is TERRIBLE and I don't condone it one bit.... I pray for this family to find strength and solace in the fact that Andreen is where no harm can come to her now and she also left her little daughter to fill the void left by her death....Kudos to the sheriff's department and my best wishes to her family..... No parent should have to bury a child....😢🙏🇹🇹
Glad your daughter lived her attack in Jesus name Amen 🙏🏾
It was an accident.
The fathers, husbands, boyfriends men period,that are supposed to protect us we need protecting from them.
Not guilty, Her husband Helped with her business getting it off the ground and then she has audacity to lie to him about another company and then Has matching tattoos with cheating boyfriend Sounds like she liked morals all the way around It's a shame she died but I do believe it was self-defense
Rest Till Paradise 🌺🙏🏽🥀
His testimony is just so matter of fact. Like he's just describing a typical day and not the taking of a life. This is scary..
No its not, she was a liar and a cheat with audacity
It's because he's evil. His dad was just found guilty of killing his second wife and is charged to stand trial for killing his first wife.
He is so cold and he knew what he was doing the whole time. How can he claim self defense after all he did even tampering with evidence. Justice was not served.
@@MazvitaMasanzuYou're defending a murderer. I think that's worse than being a cheater.
@@Housefrequence not defending him, he’s alive and will be released meanwhile because she was a cheat she’s dead
I have so much respect for this mother that is acknowledging what her son did and showing remorse for his actions. So many people can’t except that their family member is guilty even when all the evidence and an entire jury say they are.
Meanwhile Andrene's family lacks any clarity on how her manipulation, lack of respect and hostility towards her husband caused this terrible development.
@uschurch please go to therapy
@@uschurch🙄🙄
@@uschurch you better seek therapy if you can’t just file a divorce and let the courts handle business. You can’t force anyone to love you and end a life because of that. Whatever she did is not justification.
I agree! It's good his mother spoke the truth. Parents lying about their child's abusive behavior and criminal acts is also dangerous.
If my wife were missing and I go to the hospital and was told she is in one of the rooms, there's no way I wouldn't go see her in person.
That is the exact thing I said to my husband.
Covid wouldn't allow ANY visitors!
That was in 2019, before Covid@@Alleycat1111
Yes there is !! Case u knew she wasn't there..
Yeahhh WHY WOULD HE SAY OK THEN GO HOME??? He simply went by the lastnight & thats it?? He really thought he was smarter than the police smh
The moment it gets physically is the moment you leave! May her soul rest in power ❤
That testimony is bone-chilling.. he actually thought he was in the right..
Yea, this is why I’m staying single for life. The level of peace I feel knowing no one is in my house cheating on me, bringing back diseases, being abusive, or murdering me is unmatched…
Agreed
Exactly
And getting matching tattoos WHILE MARRIED…
Same, escaped one abusive person...never again.
That’s sad, one person ruined your love life
He killed her with a hammer and got manslaughter and he moved the body and lied multiple times for years....... That has to be the dumbest court room in the universe.
I know, he killed he more than once
Yep, because he should have been acquitted!
He's a captain in the miltary. Of course, he has killed before.
Yo ,, I luv the comments … y’all r the funniest … 😘❤️🐝💯💕💋💄👑🅱️✌🏽👅👄💅🏾👛🖕🏽😂👍🕶️💝
@@TNT-km2eg😬🤫
This is a tragedy and so very sad 😢 ! To all of the married couples out there, PLEASE leave your spouse before cheating on them. The consequences can cost you your health, life, or soul. I pray for the babygirl who lost her mother.
Exactly 😢 leave your partner before cheating 😢
She used him to come to America. She used him to furnish her dreams. She cheated and made a mockery of her husband by tattooing her lovers birth date on her body while she was still married to him. He obviously loved her. He should have divorced her and took everything because of her adulterous behavior. Instead, he responded to her with hate and rage that accumulated over the years. Poor daughter.
The jury definitely took a short bus to the courthouse
Man 😂😂
He told her family it was an accident, yet he didn't call 911, and he told the court it was self-defense. He's a lying scumbag.
I think no one thinks of 911 instantly cause of repercussions
There's 2 liars in that case. One just murdered the other.
Seems to be a lot of those these days.
Don't commit crimes
He killed her with the hammer, then burned the evidence. BLOOD all over her clothes. then made up the story "i drove back to hammer her" LIES. he had to change his story to make it a "self defense" story; thats why he hid her, and burned it all- her team failed her. A domestic violence expert should've been brought forward. Abusers aka narcisissst favorite phrase "she made me do it". NOTHING IS EVER THEIR FAULT. his RAGE killed her.
It’s not even how he killed her, it’s how he treated her after he killed her, the way he spoke about her in his testimony. He’s vile and he should be in prison for life
She had her man that's why he killed her again she is a scorn to him he lost trust
@@jamaicamaddea62 Yes she was wrong to be cheating but what he did was unforgiveable. He is a wicked, evil man with no regret or remorse.
Yes she cheated for you know how it feels it's very demeaning if he had the courage to walk , that would Hurt her wicked, she did not deserve him so she betrayed that man. No remorse she hurt him deeply vhe should take the whole family his investment bringing her to America , benefit from his Status this high Ranking man and you do this I have no sympathy for Her
She deserves more , the family vused him , she btook care of her man out of the business, she ah Dutty gal Wat happen you wanna defend this leave Jamaican business that's how we roll we nuh sorry so Deal wide dat

@@orwellianyoutube8978 lol okay
What??
May Andreen rest in peace. Considering her strength, she fought hard against this serviceman who killed her. Her husband's mother was genuine in her grief and even in the end could not believe her son committed this heinous crime. Sending prayers and condolences to Ms. Andreen's family.
The real MVP is the defendant’s mother. What a decent human, sacrificing her son for what is right and bringing Justice to this family. Outstanding
Yep cuz some of these mothers would still be making excuses
@@lovelivelife3092honestly it’s easy for us to say we’d hold our family accountable if they did something like this because we haven’t actually been through it. Genuinely speaking I don’t know if I’d be able to turn my mom in if I found out she did something bad
@@annienguyen8369 I totally understand I wasn't really speaking of Going that far as being the one who turned them in .... I'm speaking of not co signing the bull. When it's clearly evident? If you know what I mean there's some parents that will be in denial to the end.
She know her son ain’t S!
@@lovelivelife3092 I agree, even if the evidence was right before their eyes. It's a form of cognitive dissonance.
What the hell was the jury confused about??? The man went back to beat her after she was already dead!!! He said it was her fault….he also said “why would I call anyone to revive a dead person”! I mean all that alone would have sealed the deal for me! He also spoke about what happened like he was talking about a baseball game or something! He had no remorse at all!
Glad you're not on any jury. It's a great verdict and the jury took their job seriously and respected the law. She provoked and enraged him endlessly and when she had him where she wanted him she attempted to fight him. After all the cheating, lying, manipulation and greed she really thought she should start a physical altercation with the man, who gave her everything? Turns out it wasn't such a great idea...
@@uschurchyou’re either Andre or his murderous dad at this point. Seek help.
Fool husband is the true victim here … request h o e s don’t go back to your partner or spouse.
@@cv8692 I don’t even understand what the hell you just said other then the husband being the true victim. You heard that stupid story he told and really believe he was the victim?!
@@gaellementor5660 she triggered her husband and she was arrogant to go back to her husband with other man’s date of birth tattoo and started a company without her husband’s knowledge. She cheated on him… poor guy just made one mistake because she triggered him.
I think she was leaving him for her ex boyfriend which she possibly never broke up with in the first place and just married this guy for the green card and the money. Now that she was possibly a citizen and had her own business, the husband is no longer needed. He possibly felt that he was being taken advantage of, he decided to take away her life. It’s very sad and hopefully will teach people to stop marrying for reasons other than love because the results are not always good.
They shared the text of her saying she wasn't getting a divorce and losing half of her stuff. After he said he was going to divorce her for the tattoo.. thats why she agreed to cover it. So unless she planned to unalive him... she wasn't trying to leave because unfortunately she was being greedy.
@@OneFaithFilledLady Did you watch the same video? She threatened to divorce him herself if he brought up her lover's name, Aubyn, again.
Came here to say exactly this. Andreen was a deceiver and a cheater. She cheated on her husband and even started another business with their money behind his back. She started the whole thing. People really need to stop thinking they can deceive other and people just going to let it slide. Some people won’t.
Yes, being single is a blessing.....am not going around detecting if people are evil or not
RIP Andreen, my former student. You said your love for Entrepreneurship was birthed through my Entrepreneurship classes. You had been our keynote speaker and was to return the following year. You never turned up as you were "missing". To date you have not been allowed to deliver your fantastic energy to the students. .. RIP Andreen.
Sorry for your loss ❤
It is beautiful that you were able to inspire her visions and bring structure to her goals. It sounds like she helped many others who were close to the end of their lives. A beautiful and brave mission.
@@Somali.Pirate1facts!
Free him
@@Somali.Pirate1wow! Who hurt you? 😢 no one deserves to die for cheating. Left alone YES! Killed? No!
Defense lawyers are the greatest actors of all time. They deserve all the Oscars.
Yes definitely especially the lady!
That's what they were paid to do.
I have always thought defense lawyers are so pathetic.
I find them disgusting. I feel a percentage of them well know they're defending a killer. Yet they stand defending the killer and bolstering the lies and deception.
Defense attorneys are an important part of our justice system. Somebody needs to represent the interests of each defendant or police/prosecutor corruption will go unchecked. Every adult should understand that defense attorneys do not necessarily believe what they are saying. It's not dishonesty; it's communicating on behalf of their client.
The murderer’s mother is a very good woman. I’ve watched enough of these 48 hours episodes to know how rare it is for the murderer’s family to accept and be reasonable about it. I pray both families can heal and move on.
It make me cry to here Andreen sister and best friend talk about how they feel about the ending. And my heart and prayers go out to both mother's. Hopefully they can come to some type of understanding and be friends after everything.
His mother seems like a wonderful woman. You can see that she is just as shocked and devastated as Andreen's family. I am glad that Andreen's family have not shunned her and taken it out on her because of the sins of her son. They have obviously done what is best for Andreen's daughter. Much respect to these families.
Twenty years later, the circumstances will be different. He'll be out of prison possibly staying with his mother and expecting to see the child; an adult by that time. Doubt, the grandparent and granddaughter relationship can withstand such circumstances. The daughter should not be placed in a such a situation due to the donor's (he does not deserve to be addressed as anything different) choices.
U r right
Yeah lucky to have not been killed by Andre’s father like the other women he killed!
Thou shall not commit adultery
@@janetsmith2104I’m not sure what you by these remarks. Why penalize his mother for actions? If the daughter is an adult, she can have a relationship with her without dealing with this dude and don’t see how she would be placed in any uncompromising way.
Sounds like a toxic situation that was doomed to end in tragedy. Her affair and the tattoo are crazy, but she didnt deserve death for it.
Very crazy! She didn't deserve death, but a swift divorce was due. Tattoos for another man???? Really not very smart.
She did all that but didn’t want to divorce because she didn’t want to give up half of what he invested in. Greed, lies and infidelity is what brought on her death. I don’t mean to blame the dead but let’s be real for once. You play with peoples money and emotions, you’re pretty much putting your life online
@@lcam9241You Heard her friend didn’t want to share half
ya that would upset me. Not enough to become a murderer, but still.
Ladies, divorce first before thinking/having an affair. Not victim blaming.. but time and time again women always turn up missing/killed/dead after having an affair while in a relationship. And that is a FACT.
He smirked when his defense tried to say that he acted in self-defense! As a lawyer I could never defend someone who I clearly could see was guilty! Especially in a case like this. Someone in the comments said his dad killed 2 women before too so I guess this is a generational curse. Smh I pray it stops with him & that their daughter is getting a lot of love from both grandmothers. He showed no remorse and he knew what he was doing. Smh!
Although he had no business killing her and deserves the punishment issued to him. However, she really did not love her husband nor, wanted to be with him because she was in a relationship with someone else. She had no respect for him and resented the fact that she was “stuck” with him because of the business.
One of the only women that spoke the truth 😢 women love to back women on bull shyt but never support
I was thinking the exact same thing. It's unfortunate, but you play with people emotions you can push a person to do unspeakable things.
My son was used by his wife, she use him for a green card, she took him to courts for child supports, she got pregnant while she was married to my son, the judge came to agreement, 50 50 for child support 😅😊 it’s back file on her🎉
He has no remorse in his tone or language. To say it's "absolutely her fault" is completely heartless. Wow..their poor child!
Andre seems to have a narcissist attitude, it shows with his comment "it's her fault." Classic narcissist pattern.
Narcissism is getting matching tattoos and your lovers tattoo birthday date on your arm and get back home, make the man you call your husband look at those everyday.
It was her fault
So are a lot of people saying it in comments.
she was cheating on him all the love he had for her went ,cheats never prosper
Hitting her with a hammer. Self-defence is not the case here. He intentionally hit her with the hammer.
Good point, except ... They have him buying the hammer AFTER she is already dead. I think they argued and struggled in the bathroom. Just like a friend said he saw them wrestling in the kitchen before. Which explains the blood only in the bathroom. He knocked her out and then strangled her. Which explains why she didn't resist and he had no visible marks on him.
Did u watch and listen properly. He bought the hammer after she was dead. He did all those after she was dead and after he dispose her body.
Didn’t he buy the hammer the day after? Although I don’t think anyone’s buying the self defence idea
@@RLU-wt8vi that makes sense and also lines up as nothing can be proved
What a BEAUTIFUL Woman. Her smile lights up the room I'll bet. A sad and tragic loss to the world..
He was in the United States military he definitely knows how to overpower somebody there’s no way that this woman over powered him
He was in the Air Force, they don't call it the Chair Force for nothing.

@@TawnyC_ he is sick AF
@@HerrSchaft007yes it was messed up cheating never ends well
@@HerrSchaft007but not a crime
The second time he wanted to get a divorce, he should’ve just done it! She could get 100 tattoos of different lovers, but that still wouldn’t give a normal person the capacity to desecrate their wife’s dead body. That’s terrifying. And this is coming from someone who thinks she was an awful person.
I bet that boyfriend she was cheating with has a new family now. That woman risked her life, child, marriage, business all for a man that obviously couldnt do for her what her husband was able to do. I dont understand why she just didnt divorce and move on with the broke bf.
You are absolutely correct. If you're going to cheat make sure you marry the right guy. Betrayal is extremely painful and harmful to some. She was a wonderful woman but the things she did with another man while married is really bad. I always said I always say infidelity should be against the law and when discovered or reported should be brought court a trial should happen and the results will affect any alimony or child custody. It may prevent some of these serious consequences. Not sure but it's worth a try. It's a very sad story. A child is left without a mother.
This woman was crazy . She had no feelings for the guy who had made to her an opportunity to get to where she was. Otherwise she should have remained in Jamaica with his broke boyfriend. Her success made her arrogant and she forgot she had a husband and a daughter to care for. How some women can be complicated!!
Prayers to my families ❤
I can't think of too many situations more frightening than being judged by a jury of my peers. There are a lot of unintelligent people in the jury pool.
A LOT!!!
If you no longer live in a nation of your peers, you no longer live in a nation.
that just lacked intelligence and common sense. so sad
Yes they were very dumb!
The problem is that it is not truly a "jury of your peers". It is a jury of random people in the sociey. Really, the people that get stuck with jury duty are mostly older, less educated people that have free time. Your peers (people with similar characteristics with you) would probably judge you more fairly.
Cheating is what it is but tattooing ur lover on ur body while u are married is just dumb ,reckless and wildly disrespectful
i WISH I KNEW WHAT HAPPENED TO THE MAN SHE RUN AFTER TO GET HERSELF KILLED
Honestly!
Yeah right huh !!!
I agree, she was looking for trouble. But 90% of the people involved in 48 hours episodes are dumb people. They take decisions that the majority of the people would never take.
She was bravely disrespectful

Wow that verdict is BOGUS. He described the event without pausing to cry. He wasn't overwhelmed with grief. He killed her intentionally.
Why would he cry lmao
He acknowledged that he hated her. I wouldn't cry either
He clearly stated he thought 💭🤔 it was her fault. I will admit some of the situations shared on this did seem out of pocket. Like her cheating with ex and even telling him to not bring her ex name up again or she would definitely divorce him ... Then him finding out she had established an entirely new business that had been up for a year by the time she let him know.... I mean he sold everything to get her dream business started NO MAN does that and take it lightly once they feel you're about to leave them .... BUT him murdering her was not right and he's definitely guilty for his actions.
@@luntbanzi1967 if you ACCIDENTALLY killed someone you loved you don't think you would cry or show some indication of grief, remorse while describing the event? This dude was talking about killing his wife like it didn't bother him at all. Kinda look like he had a bit of a smile on his face.

This case is so heartbreaking on all levels.. being betrayed in marriage is extremely painful but it doesn’t equate death😢.. the pain in both mothers eyes is saddening 😢😢😢
Sometimes it does. Crimes of passion is a real thing.
Actually in the old testament of thr Bible it does Leviticus 20:10 “And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.” King James Version (KJV)

He gave her a beautiful life in America, with a beautiful daughter, she had a thriving business, but it wasn't enough to make her love and respect her husband and value what she had. She was a bad girl, selfish to disrespect her husband. She should have divorced and went about her life with the man that she loved. She was so selfish. She didn't care about her child or her husband. A married woman tattooing her lover's initials and birthdate on her body.. totally disrespectful of her husband, marriage and union. She drove him crazy, he loved her and she laughed in his face because she was the main bread winner although the business was community property. He should have divorced her and left with 1/2 of the assets. He gave her everything... dumped his 401k sold his car to help her start the business. I feel bad for him because he lost his mind behind this woman. He lost everything because of her greed and infidelity!

Personally I hate the Jury system. I'm glad it's not used in my country
Investigated for stupidity?
@@NyanyiC I think being convicted by a jury of peers it's much fairer than a bunch of bureacrats intransparently deciding behind closed doors, but tastes differ. In my country verdicts are ridiculously mild and victims feel marginalized and ridiculed buy the "expert" justice system.
@@uschurchpeople who aren’t lawyers and have no experience getting to decide what happens with somebody’s life is actually stupid
its better than everyone rich getting off with a slap on the wrist because they know people with power @@babyjane87
I cant believe the verdict in this case!! He beat her dead body with a hammer!! After he burnt her body!! Wtf is wrong with people?
@JamesDeWalt909 so tf what? You can't control yourself? You can't get a divorce? You need help if you agree with his behavior. Foh
I didn't realize cheating was a death sentence. He's a cold blooded calculated murderer. @@JamesDeWalt909
Seeing that common sense isn’t so common anymore, it’s bound to happen with jurors.
@@JamesDeWalt909 so what? Have you never made a mistake in your life? Should you also be killed for it?
@@JamesDeWalt909Really? Wow! :::shaking my head:::: I’m usually not surprised by much but your comment surprised me. Wow!
Such a very tragic and sad story.
In my culture it's a major offence abusing a dead person. Each culture has its own values.
"We determined that he purchased the gun, probably to arm himself." GREAT detective work, guys.
"Probably to HARM himself."
Goodness! How can he even claim self defense when he went back to his dead wife and attacked her body out of rage, stroke her with a hammer and then burned her? Totally abuse of corpse! How there was even a doubt? I’ve seen people being found guilty in first degree with way less evidence. Sickening 😔
Gotta go by the facts not by emotions. Jury got it right. Sad for her RIP.
I really don’t think that’s what happened. He killed her with the hammer at home he just gave that as an excuse to have blood on the hammer
The heart of men is wicked and desperate...this is so so sad .. I pray comfort for the family's affected...judgement is coming...🙏🙏🙏🙏✨️✨️
They didn’t
@@user-rr3fo6hy9qit's true that you gotta go by the facts. The problem is how people can process facts differently. The jury got it all wrong....
"I guess I was still angry" he says about smashing a corpse that was burned and most certainly dead. This is psychopathy at it's highest level.
Almost like openly cheating, tattooing affair partner's birthdate and initials, threatening to steal a business which was only possible because husband gave up his life savings and challenging him to a physical fight. Honestly, the rage is quite understandable if you really think about the abuse he had to endure over months if not years.
What about her? Using a man for his money and becomes a millionaire, goes and gets with another man and rubs it in his face......that isn't a psycho?
@@uschurch😂😂😂😂
And, what do you call a woman who was cheating and was blatant enough to get tattoos to prove how much she loves the ex boyfriend. She was not afraid of her husband and she didn’t care if she hurt him. She used him to get to the US and she took his life savings to start a business and then siphoned off money from that business to secretly start another business. She was continuously deceiving him.
Lots of potential murderers in your replies.
The way the Legal system is built might not be fair sometimes. This got me tearing.
This makes me wonder if there is a protocol at hardware stores to report or document when people purchase items like these together?
Being single is a blessing.
How about people just not cheating and being deceitful
Yes indeed
nah marriage is a blessing
Do You Really Think So?
Single women are not safe either.
How can this be a self-defense??. 20 years is a slap in the face. No remorse, nothing. Very sad.
It's called heat of passion.
Justice was not served
he deserved to be released after 10 yrs
@@solomonivere2967WOW that's all I have to say is WOW! Glad ill never be married to you!
@@tabbycarlson6524so u marry and cheat and manipulate ur spouse and expect the spouse to accept everything and hug u with open arms and say... Honey u are an angel in my life for using me ..oh ya..good luck with ur marriage
Very sad indeed. She was very succesful and vibrant.All she needed was a chance to Live.😢
My heart ❤️ goes out to the family of this beautiful woman. 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful woman ? Hardly. Cheating, embezzling and using people ? Really ? Our definitions of beautiful are vastly different. I pray Allah opens your eyes 🙏
It’s hard for me as her past teacher in Grade 5 at Norwich Primary School; in Portland, Jamaica, to accept this news. She was such a bright and jovial student. Sleep in Peace Andreen.
Islanders always cheat. We were taught that as little kids in Florida❤
A cheater too
She’s a disgusting cheater
A bright and jovial disrespectful cheater that tattooed another mans name and birthday on her body so brazenly. I'm sorry, she wasn't that smart to be doing all that. I would never play with a mans emotions like that, I'd be afraid he would whack me too (aside from the fact that my moral conscience would not allow me to betray my husband that way even if he was crazy) ! That's the ULTIMATE disrespect.
@@FredSaimpre-ru4mgyou need to quit
He abused a dead corpse and the jury is dead locked ? Who are these people ?
I absolutely cannot wrap my brain around that
Texans
Really sad story that could happen to anyone who doesnt take the early signs of abuse seriously. In the past it was hard to get away from these situations mostly because the Justice System in domestic abuse cases moves very slow. Whats also sad in this case is how the jury believe d his story and he will be free one day soon to do this again.
Just horrific... sad to see how people would cross that LINE.. just crazy
The way he disposed of the body let’s you know how he felt about her!
I mean, yeah she tatted another man on her body while they were married. Seems kind of obvious Rita. How would you feel if your husband did that and told you to stop nagging about it or divorce?
@@lemuhurudoesn’t justify killing anyone.
@@lemuhurui hope whomever is dating you is aware of your potential
@@LocdnessMomstermine know. Don’t mess around
@@LocdnessMomster YEP! Sounds like a lesson in not playing with folks! I don't feel sorry for her at all.
This man really does have no remorse. That much is true.
We don't know how much she hurt him before everything happened. Some women do that to men. They make them into emotional corpses.
@@uschurchtotally agree 👍
With everything she did to him and everything he did for her I think it would be hard to have any remorse for somebody who did you so horribly... It's not okay what he did but what she did to him I can understand him not having remorse.. He brought her to the United States and gave her his life savings and what does she do goes behind his back cheats on him gets a tattoo and opens a business without his knowledge.. If it weren't for him she would still be in Jamaica she came to America and married him probably just to get into the United States obviously because she didn't love him she was having an affair and getting an a tattoo with another man.
Neither does she
Andreen such A Beautiful Smart Young Lady...I am sorry for your loss..........."Rest In Peace"
Cheater and embezzler is not a beautiful person
The universe has a way of dishing out justice.
Being single isn’t so bad after all. It is likely saving my life🙂
Right
Not cheafing is a whole lot better
@@kcol3747😂
The verdict of manslaughter is a slap in the face. Unreal.
Should be Not guilty by reason of insanity. Wgat she did is unimaginable.
@@jeffcampbell2710 what she did?? There is no evidence to show that she was combative but he admitted to killing her and his narrative is all we have to go by. And guilty for the reason of insanity is hard to plea without clear evidence of a mental health disorder, which he had an evaluation done and it seems nothing came out of it.
She manipulated him and used him to gain a Green Card. She then cheated on him - manslaughter is understandable. While killing her was wrong she drove him to distraction. I would say the same thing if it had been a man.
The matching tats is probably what helped them, and him being high ranking military. If he was a poor, ugly, and blue collar he wouldn’t have been able to score that deal or get bail tbh
@@jeffcampbell2710 Then he should be in a secure mental healthcare facility for life. Except he’s not insane, so he is in prison. Keep trying to drum up sympathy and justify him breaking the law, killing, and lying, though. It’s very telling.
You can't play with people's emotions. She did not deserve to die, but her actions were a trigger for this man.
How did they become multimillionaires in just a few years from assisted living business? Did they keep getting government and-or state grants to provide for the oldies and they spent a significant part on themselves? Did they keep milking Medicare? Did they inherit from a few rich oldies?
I'm deeply saddened by the tragic event. While the husband's actions might have been triggered by personal betrayal, nothing justifies taking a life. It's a stark reminder of the need for peaceful conflict resolution and emotional support in times of distress. My thoughts are with everyone impacted
Of course young ,successful woman ,but he was angry at her that she betrayed him ,he loaned her first money so she can start the business, and they both became rich ,right? And she wanted get back with her ex
@@katarzynamariamuszynska2811and didn't want to split 50/50 after he brought her to America empty his 401k sold his bmw and used ut to finance and started the business and then open another in her name only, all I can say wicked woman, wickeder man.
@@kingdred3568 now maybe your trying to justify his anger but to say him murdering her over tangible things is morally suicide. It takes a real sick minded individual to agree to his justification.
"Nothing justifies taking a life" > Is that so??? So how about police, soldiers, the state with death penalties, MD's, etc taking lives?
@StofStuiver I know ,nothing justified taking life,and the way he abused her body after,and the way he was describing in the Court is evil He could divorce,and share ,but he was angry at Her because maybe without his money she wouldn't start her job which brings a lot of money I heard ,strange I didn't know you can make that money from places like that ! maybe it was her idea but she needed money to start But if that nothing excuse killing Her and if she was strong,because she was lifting the weights ,he probably had to hit with something so she won't fight back
Andre would’ve been better off divorcing Andreen immediately upon finding her tattoos dedicated to another man instead of throwing both of their lives away.
She refused the divorce
@@EdwinMaldonado-ie6qn In the state of Texas he could’ve made it happened even if she refused.
@@EdwinMaldonado-ie6qn I don't know about Texas, but in most states, if they don't reply to your divorce papers, you automatically get the divorce after 6 months.
I believe she did attack him
@@ivorysteele I agree with that possibility and that he went overboard in response.
It’s criminal how much assisted living costs.
Take care of your people at home then.
yeah I have no respect for people who make millions off of old people.
@@ameliacoburn4787Agreed. Put that money back into the business, not mansions and sports cars.
Where I live at the old people that live there are well taken care of in the apartments The aids keep the apartment clean and change diapers administer medicines to the ones that need they are nice better than being in a nursing home and if you have the money for it why not
I can't believe the jury was deadlocked on this one.
How could they call it manslaughter. Disgusting!!
How would the jury ever take 11 hours for this? How pathetic.
Because it didn't sound like premeditated
REGARDLESS HE WILL BE SUFFERING FOR LIFE
Sometimes these outcomes can be disgusting but in this case they thought it would be fair to deem it that way since he reacted to her actions
He literally WENT BACK TO HER DEAD BODY TO BEAT HER UP AGAIN! He says “probably because I was still mad when walking away from her”. THAT right there shows how ANGRY he can get! How much he sees red! No one does such a thing if it were truly self defense and he ended her life because he was so scared of her. He’s a bs liar!
exactly
This man is crazy. My God, even after killing her, he still attack her
I love the sheriff 's reactions he took action right away. He went to the public for help and the public will always come forward that"s the truth stepping up .
So tragic. Also - I don’t often feel bad for the killer’s parents, but his mother looks broken. This man has destroyed so much. His daughter will grow up without her parents.
His daughters mom destroyed everything. Did you not hear 11:30?
You don't care about the mother, what did she do? She raised an Air Force captain.
@@TLR1988 so if someone cheats they deserve to be killed? Hella men be cheating and you dont see women killing them🙄
He destroyed so much? What about her cheating, lying and tattooing? She destroyed him first, what do you expect? Yeah, he snapped, that’s because this dirty cheater is literally spitting on his face!
@@YoHoosierDaddyyou think someone deserves to die if they cheat? Thats wild🤡
Beautiful, intelligent, ambitious and inspiring young lady…really tragic
This is absolutely insane
I feel so sorry for these two mothers, how sad, heartbreaking. May Andreen rest in peace 💔
No peace in hell
@@katjay3125 Wages of sin is death, she had it coming.
so he left the baby home alone in a big house to dump his wife’s body.. then goes back to the body and desecrate the body… society will never be safe from a person like this
I hope their daughter goes no contact. She will be 33 when he gets out of prison and that's still quite young.
I was thinking the same thing. He said himself that she woke up during the attack, and then she was left alone there afterwards, with blood all over the place. How terrifying for a child. I'm glad she's with her mom's family now.
@@traceyg2703I hope when she’s old enough they tell her the full truth. And I hope now they will start letting her know that her father hurt her mother and she died. Children aren’t stupid.
No he brought the baby with him in another one I watched he brought the daughter both times..they said his daughter went to school rein acting what she saw just sad !
People are focused on her actions but her actions made sense considering the type of man he was…
I am very sad to hear about your loss,I am a mom& grandmother. I have 5 children , grown,& 8 grandchildren. A Mother always loves their children totally,& grandchildren,so completely. I am praying for your fa.ily!!!!!❤❤❤❤😊
