@@imaghostytoasty Fun fact: I started studying Hamilton back in '99 as a teenager, and even I picked up on that.

It wasn't unusual for men to speak in flowery terms about each other back then, but these two really were a bit, uh...*excessive.* I remember reading another historian pointing out that Hamilton's family (I think it was his kids later) burned some of his letters either to or from Laurens because even for the times, they veered too far into romantic territory.

Polygamy never ends well.
@Rowan Melton At that point it's just selfish. Children need a stable household to develop in.
@@SirDankleberry polygamous households...can be perfectly stable....if the parents are all in a stable relationship, too. Plenty of monogamous relationships are unstable and unsafe for the children, and the base issue is between the parents, whether it’s monogamous or poly. A poly relationship between parents is not inherently unhealthy for a child. A mono relationship between parents is not inherently unhealthy for a child, and often winds up unstable and unsafe anyway. So it’s not about poly or mono, it’s about parenting and actual dynamic.

@@peggypeggy4137 yeah I'm really proud to see that women have come such along since then even tho it could still be lots better for us, but you make a good point also

Or, hear me out: Bisexual Jack
CP 781 I’d think it to be a questioning gay. It wasn’t accepted at the time so I would think that it was only by the time that Jack and Christine were deeper into their relationship that he would realize that he had stronger feelings for Ronnie (since they’d all known each other for a long whole).
I have a question. Would bi people at the time try to ignore their “unusual” feelings and push to have straight relationships, since they knew they were attracted to the opposite sex?
@@greatvalue_ethelcain well here's the thing, back then they didn't really make that distinction between gay and bi. sort of how people haven't made the distinction between sexual attraction and romantic attraction until rather recently. The more open society becomes the more people talk freely about their individual experiences and the more our understanding of the lgbt+ community changes. They did not have the vocabulary that we have today, and so most would not have quite the same sense of identity that we have. What that means is that back then, if you liked someone of your own gender, you were a homosexual. If you liked someone of your own gender *sometimes* you were also a homosexual. They didn't have really a broad understanding of trans people either, so they were also called homosexuals. Asexual people? Frigid, but when in doubt, also a homosexual, probably. And so, most understanding queer people had of themselves were kind of cobbled together out of a life of shame and opression, if they didn't have imediate access to the underground queer scene. Some gay people would push for straight relationships cause "that's what you're supposed to do", some people would get married and maybe truly love their spouse, but also maybe still have side affairs, and sometimes it would be like "Aunt Geraldine was a spinster and may or may not have lived with her very close roommate Olivia till one of them died" And then you'd have someone like, Idk, James Dean, who was very "dude ya wanna smooch this weekend" about everything.
Join A Movement of 6M To Adopt Klaus Hargreeves qosew wut l
@Must Han um, no? back then it was simply whether you were with the same or opposite gender that would determine it, and nowadays bi/pan ppl are not in more "straight" relationships (it wouldn't technically be a straight relationship anyway). What you're describing is bi erasure in both past and present.
Alternate title “90 day fiancé gone wrong”
she already had mental issues, she couldn’t bear the fact that jack loved another man, so she tried to kill them both and then poison herself- when the poison didn’t work she drowned herself, thus why the water was so shallow because she did it willingly. Also explaining the fact that the firefighter didn’t see her - because she hadnt drowned herself yet as she was waiting for the poison to kick in.

I have 3 theories. 1.) I think during the honeymoon, Ronnie told Christina that he and Jack were in love. Perhaps he told her that Jack marrying Christina was just a coverup so that he and Jack could be together without anyone figuring out their gay affair. That would explain Christina being emotionally unstable. She finally decides to kill herself and Jack along with her because after all, he was the one who was lying about his love for her the whole time. Also, it would have been much harder for her to manage to kill BOTH Jack and Ronnie. So she decides to take out the one who hurt her the most. So, after Ronnie leaves the cabin for a while, she poisons Jack and herself, leaves Jack inside the cabin, sets the cabin on fire as a crime of passion, and then either A. intentionally drowns herself in the river, possibly with the motives of framing Ronnie as a way to punish him as well B. while walking by the river, she passes out due to the drugs and drowns 2.) Ronnie was in love with Jack but Jack didn't know. So, to get back at Jack for marrying Christina, he decided to kill them both. He drugged them both, hit Jack over the head so that he wouldn't interfere while trying to kill Christina, Christina runs out of the house in fear and heads towards the river, Ronnie catches up to her and drowns her, went back to the cabin, sets it on fire, realizes that either there's no reason to kill Jack now that Christina is out of the picture or he realizes the horror in what he's done/doing, decides to rescue Jack, and grabs the letters in order to frame Christina. 3.)supporting one of the theories mentioned in the video, perhaps Christina was so paranoid about losing Jack, she decided to kill him and herself so that no one else could have him and because she was nothing without him. And Ronnie, sensing something was off, went along with them on the honeymoon to make sure things didn't go south. But he also never said anything to Jack because he didn't want to ruin things between him and Christina
I think maybe the number is ture but maybe chiristina knew about them already that she couldnt handle maybe smooching or sum and she even told that no one could have him so thats why she drugged jack when ronnie wasnt there
I really think Christina may have had drug issues and paranoid tendencies, so when she either found out or assumed the relationship between Jack and Ronald she snapped. She took drugs, drugged Jack and tried to murder him by knocking him out and setting the house on fire. Ronald showed up just in time to save Jack and when Christina found her plans to be ruined she ran off. Not sure how she drowned in 9 inches of water, but I also don’t know how much codeine was in her system. Also I def believe she was so dramatic she threw the ring into the lake titanic style.
I think you're right, this doesn't sound like a murder, just a very tragic, sordid love story. and 9 inches is enough water to submerge your face if you're lying down, so its enough to drown in. you can drown in incredibly shallow water, especially intoxicated

**Ronald saves Jack** and that’s on brokeback mountain.
Mustö Han brokeback Mountain is a movie about closeted cowboys that can’t be together because back then being homosexual was “wrong”
Highly underrated comment omfg
@@Nekromancer98 oh, you are clever
Omfg
I was so confused at the beginning of the movie. Like they were all pissy and then they just started... Out of nowhere? Granted I was 14 and trying to fill the void that cmbyn left me so I had no idea what I was in for.
This one really broke my heart because if Jack and Ronald really were lovers, they had to deal with all those people interested in the case trying to out their sexuality. I do really believe that they were together because the fact that Jack cut all of his family out of his life is very telling especially in such a time back then when being LGBTQ+ was considered “unnatural”
It broke your heart because of your over speculative mind? There's no evidence that they had anything beyond friendship. I'm a male who's been really good friends with a bisexual male since 2008. Does that mean we're interested? This logic is laughable. There's not even any evidence that either of them had an interest in men.

"The largest piece of evidence that she killed herself are the *several suicide notes*" I mean That's a pretty damning piece of evidence id say
So is the husband's life insurance policy, TBF.
Poochie Collins except if they were truly lovers they could have wrote each other in as beneficiaries secretly and taken their families who didn’t approve out.
I'ts weird he thought about saving the letters instead of searching for her a little bit more. I think she killed herself but was driven to it by them. They just let her do it. Which, not to justify them, but seems like a not so unreasonable idea since she had thought about killing Jack before.
You have to move the quotation marks to make it bold
The thing about this is that she might have planned to kill herself but was killed before she could do that
Jack and Christina got married. Christian found out that Jack is in love with Ronald. She (already unstable) decides to kill Jack and then herself. Drugs him and set the house a blaze. Drugs herself and drowns in the water. Ronald finds Jack and saves him (awwww) Done and done. You cant tell me any different. *slap hands together to remove dust* any questions? None. GREAT!
I think you got it spot on. I feel this is what happened.
You're telling me this DIDN'T happen? It totally did, bravo to you.
Except for the fact that they were beneficiaries to each of their own insurance. Drove Christina to take such drastic steps, either emotionally or physically (drugs) OR both. Burned down the cottage to claim the insurance, with the knowledge that Christina killed herself.
@@nirvanalama8493 i think jack used ronald making jack benifitiary of the cabins insurance as the perfect ‘excuse’ for jack to then take out a life insurance on himself and Christina. She probably then started getting suspicious or it confirmed ones she already had
The fact that Jack was poisoned may have something to do with her statement of not wanting any other girl to have him. Killing both herself and Jack.

This case is truly bizarre....all 3 people come across as profoundly guilty. Yet nothing is really ever explained. Even the widespread assumption that Jack/Ronald were lovers is total speculation and is never substantiated.
Exactly! The idea that the woman was suicidal has more evidence to support it than the idea that jack and Ronald were interested in each other.
I mean yes, but she literally was suicidal, so that’s not saying much. It’s pretty obvious that the two guys were also in a relationship with each other. All the stuff about leaving their money yo each other, and Ronnie going with them on their honeymoon. It’s a safe assumption to make.

I think the 2 had a romantic relationship and she kinda knew so she decided to kill him and herself, thy way they could be together forever but she couldn’t actually kill jack and that’s when Ronald came in and found him with blood on his face. But she killed herself because she couldn’t be married to him after having knowing he didn’t lover her how she wanted. I think they didn’t really try to find her cause they kinda wanted her to be gone.

@@---nobody--- I see, I feel like the word 'fantastical' be more apt in this situation lol
During this time frame, the word “fantastic” meant more like imaginative or like it was made up rather than what it means today. Fantastic comes from the word fantasy.
Yes! Like a fantastic stretch of the imagination.
Omg yes! Its fantastic how my dad never came back!
BeeHAVE oh jeez-
Thank you. I was scrolling the comments to see if someone had already explained this.
@@beehave2331 Ouch.

This comment is hilarious 😂

ME IN A NUTSHELL OMG
repent and turn to Christ before it’s too late and don’t take God’s Name in vain 🥰

I’d like/hate to think that when this case was over, media was still all over Jack and Ronnie’s lives, seeing as they kept up with Jack’s marriage, and to save their gay relationship, they went separate ways so as to not sensationalize their connection to each other. Unfortunately, it led to them never seeing each other again. Kinda like “if you love something, set it free” and also like the trauma of what went down is pretty intense and put a strain on their relationship. Obviously I’d like to spin my own made up version of what happened after the case went cold, but i think this much sadder version is closer to reality ☹️
Nothing against them being gay, but both of them being beneficiaries to each other's insurance right before the incident doesn't sit well with me.
I think Shane's theory that whilst the two men did not directly cause her death, they knew what she was planning and took advantage of it. Ronald may have shared the letters with Jack and the two may have further encouraged this mental state in her and her worry over Jack's love. They knew she was planning something drastic so they took out the insurance policies, and ensured Ronald came with them in case anything went wrong and she tried a murder suicide. This theory would also explain why Ronald saved the letters from the burning cottage, so that they could prove her mental state and show their innocence. Christina left the cottage after attempting to murder Jack and then either drowned accidentally when she maybe passed out, or Ronald found her after saving Jack and the letters and kills her in revenge for almost killing Jack.
I'd stem off and almost say in her declining state they took advantage after she wrote letters he showed them to Jack and they then setup an elaborate plan to murder her at the cabin and burn it down but to make it look like she tried murdering jack. Because in my eyes if I was Jack and he showed me those letters saying she wanted to murder me I wouldn't want to be left alone with her. I'd be too afraid she'd do something and coincidentally something does happen. So it makes me wonder if they murdered her and staged it too look like she tried killing Jack. Mmm not sure though not sure. Unsolved
Except when they found the body there was no evidence of foul play if she was drowned FORCIBLY there would be indications of this unless she was just drugged and thrown into the water.
I'm buying all the thing you said EXCEPT the idea that they murderd her. She probably committed suicide, intentionally drugged herself while on the river, then passed out and drowned.. well intentionally, after her "failed" attempt to murder Jack.
This is exactly what I have been thinking. Who saves a bunch of letters when there’s a fire unless the person knows the letters are a chance for him (or them in this case) to escape? I’ll take it a bit further and say they were gay and had intentionally made Christina more paranoid about the whole “jack not marrying her” situation.
Or maybe the two buddies planned everything beforehand (marriage, honeymoon, etc.) so they take the insurance money by manipulating Christina, knowing she was mentally unstable.
The only difference is that in this version of the story,Jack survived and Rose drowned😂😂
lata priya THIS NEEDS MORE LIKES
OMG YES😂😂
WHEEZE
*CHOKES*
And that Jack and Hockley were in love?
Me, a Canadian watching this: Oh no! The cottage burned down? Oh dear Shane: 15:47
Ronnie: "You was here. And you was *SMOOCHIN'* with my lover!"
A Culkin reference!🤣
Shane: Wait a minute.... Were they smoochin'? Me: They were probably doing more than that my dude.
Crazy Caity 1,000 like
Me: HOLD UP WERE THEY GAY?!?!??!?!
Allie Chef plot twist: Jack and Ronald are gay and they are together
What, like holding hands?
Crazy Cai yeah like muff diving and rim jobs
jack and ron be like yeah we gay keep scrolling
fyi Jack was bisexual me Ronnie gay it's so obvious
Miss Amanda's world well that’s just a wild assumption
@@majormana1 the fact that this prob true lmfao
@@janes8714 it's not that wild. Ronnie admitted he was gay. Jack said he wasn't never said straight just not gay he invited Ronnie to come with. He married another female.
No one else think it’s weird that no one heard from Ronnie again? 🤔 Sounds like another unsolved case to me!
“This was disturbing, I didn’t like it” - me working retail
Why doesn't Ryan wheeze any more?
hassan nassar He uses he's inhaler before the show to prevent it lol
The wheeze belongs to buzzfeedblue so he isnt legally allowed anymore.
18:36
hassan nassar maybe he got in inhaler 😂 idk
Stephen Alvear shane still (wheezes) at 6:08
When the police described Ronald's statement as "fantastic" they were using the word's old meaning; unbelievable, literally relating to a fantasy. They thought he was talking absolute codswallop.
codswallop
It's just like when in the room 1046 case when they didn't realize "commercial woman" meant prostitute. I love these boys, but I don't think they read much.
New favorite word
"Wait a minute.... were they smoochin?" Yes, Shane. Yes they were
two bros, chilling in a cabin....
Ok, I’m gonna say it.... Jack was HOT! That jawline tho
AicraG G Same thought here 😅
had to look far off the comment section to find this.
ik sis i would have eloped with him too
I would gladly be in a secret gay relationship with him too. Can anyone blame Ron?
yazzzz
ok but jack is a snack
lmao i was just thinking that
Omg!!! That's what I thought 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Jacc a snacc?
he's a SNACCC
a gay snack
As a Canadian I’ve never heard of this case so this was actually pretty interesting but I think that Jack and Ronald were gay and Christine either 1: knew about their relationship and was angry and sad that Jack would never love her as much as she loved him and tried to kill Jack and commit suicide by setting the house on fire but failed and either due to the drugs or intentionally. Theory number two would be that because she had tried to kill Jack Ronnie decided to kill her because he was angry and drowned her. Theory number three is that maybe that Jack and Ronnie has been “doing the deed” and Christina walked in on them and I was horrified and maybe she got angry and told Ronnie to leave so she could talk to Jack alone and tried to murder jack but failed and tried to set the house on fire and then left to commit suicide and threw the ring into the water and drowned. 🤔
Jack was smokin' hot tho.
beautiful girl ??? jack???? italian friend???? titanic who
anna rossetti Lol
Roflmao
BOI HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
titanic was kinda gay too
can't change my name i thought titanic was the literal embodiment of the fantasy heterosexual relationship
I think you should put a poll on every video,with all the theories so you can see what everyone thinks is the most plausible theory.just an idea.Like of u agree
Elite Gamer great idea!! That would be awesome to see what everyone else is thinking!! I'm down 💯
neon_lights glad u agree with me man.did not expect over a 100 people to agree also lol
Elite Gamer it's a wonderful idea!!
Yes!!!!
Thats super smart
My theory:she tried to end it all and kill Jack by drugging him and herself and setting the house ablaze. In her delerious state she wandered outside and fell, drowning in the water. Ronnie was both a lover of Jack's but also going along out of concern for him. Alternatively, some drug induced threesomes may have just gotten out of hand...
Historians would say Ronald and Jack would just be “close friends”
**BuzzFeed Unsolved uploads** Me: **drops everything and clicks on video furiously**
KayleeKat *drops phone in the process*
Lmfao
KayleeKat MEEEEE
KayleeKat honestly
is it sad the gay love triangle idea popped into my head immediately
Yam The Cow nope. I did too.
Same haha
nope i thought of it too lol
Same as soon as I heard I thought huh maybe their gaaaayyyyy
I lowkey think they all banged 😂
my INSTANT thought was that it was a secret poly relationship but as the story unfolded I realized it couldn’t have been possible
@2:08 - My thoughts exactly.. "What's happening right now?!" 🤔🤨
Ryan's unsolved voice is strangely calming
Anthony Garcia I've seen every episode but I still rewatch them in the background while I do other things because his voice is so good
Anthony Garcia what u mean? he sounds like the burger king foot lettuce guy
Anthony Garcia ikr
Cierra Creek I do that too
I've fallen asleep before to a video
their relationship is literally “I can’t believe it’s finally you and me and you and me just us and your friend Steve do-do-do-dododo Steve”
the pictures of the people involved in the cases always terrify me
They should do a unsolved mystery on my dad going to the shop
@Mustö Han He never came back after going for the milk
@Mustö Han it's a joke that has been going around about dad leaving for milk and ultimately decided to never return to pay for the child support
Same here dude 😞😰😭
dudeeeeeeee
You guys want hugs?
Ryan looked so lost and uncomfortable when Shane was talking with his eyes closed
Livvy Castro yeah lol
Don't give me that. You been smooching everybody! Snuffy, Al, Leo... Little Moe with the gimpy leg, Cheeks, Boney Bob, Cliff...
shane: "thats me putting myself into her mind" ryan: *disgust*
As a Canadian, when they started impersonating Canadians, I wheezed lmao-
you imitated them when they imitated you. wow
I'm also Canadian, it was spot on
Same here, I always love when Americans imitate Canadians, it's either so good it's funny how accurate it is or it's so bad it's comical. I like to laugh at that.
they were you, and now you are them. sksksk
@@Foodfry122 how exactly is that.
"If I can't have him no one can." Defiantly seems like a cliche murder suicide attempt.
Astro Wolvez Every time I hear this, I think of John Mulaney’s “No one else can have you!” *stabby motion*
This was a great find, I’m from Mimico ,Ontario but never heard of this story before now. You guys are great and I love all your vids 🤘🏻
When Ryan goes to from "narrator voice" to "casual voice" it just cracks me up.
80% of this comment section: “but jack is hot”
Lmao you aren't wrong
Hey, Ronnie’s pretty cute too
Hahahaha true
its true tho
Always the cute ones haha 😂 he is cute
"Fantastic" did not have the same connotations in the 40s as it does now. The police did not mean to say that Barrie's statement was wonderful or great in some way, but that it was "fantastical," seeming like a fantasy rather than reality, an exaggerated or fabricated story rather than a true account.
Avery Nelson ohhh yeah that makes more sense, thanks for commenting
was just about to say this myself. i'm surprised they didn't realise that after all the stuff they've read by now. A fantastic tale is one considered pure fiction, so wild and outrageous it doesn't seem remotely likely.
That make sense
Thanks! I'm pretty I knew that, but it was buried deep in the vault and there are spiders down there.
What I came down here to say :)
