Ep. 109 | CCTV Footage That Will Make You Lose Fai & I Did a Drawing Every Day for a Month · Weeknight Mysteries Podcast

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Ever since I got that security camera footage for my
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: viewer submission stories, I've become obsessed with watching weird CCTV clips.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure why these recordings seem so creepy. They're
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: usually horrible quality, badly angled, terrible lighting, low resolution and
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: frame rate. Maybe that's what makes them even scarier. It's
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: like one of them psychological horror stories that leaves your
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: mind to fill in all the blanks. In fact, there
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: are often silent probably adds to it as well. Your
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: brain strains to hear something that isn't there and puts
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: on a sort of higher alert. You begin to imagine
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: the sounds, no matter how horrible they might be. Combined
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: with the fact that you always know the footage is real,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: these greeny recordings provide a candid look into a gritty
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: reality that most of us are blissfully unaware of. Here's
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: a selection of CCTV footage that will make you lose
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: faith in humanity. At the time of recording, Missy Beavers
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: has been dead for three years and her murderer has
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: never been found. On April 18, 2016, she was scheduled
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: to teach an early morning fitness class at a local
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: church in Midlothian, Texas. She arrived at 4.30 a.m. and
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: began setting up for the class. At 5 a.m., she
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: was found dead with punctual wounds all over her head
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: and chest. She was a popular and active person in
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: their local community. She had a husband and three children.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: The town was devastated by the killing but they had
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: no idea who was behind the murder. The only clues
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: came from CCTV footage recovered from the church. The first
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: unusual recording happened at around 2 AM on the morning
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: of the murders. A car inexplicably pulls into the car
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: park of the church and it slowly prowls around the
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: perimeter of the building. It occasionally stops for a moment
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: as if looking for something in particular. After a full
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: circuit of the church, it pulls into a parking bay
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: for a moment before driving away. The driver of this
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: car was never found and it's not clear whether it's
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: the killer driving but the timing of the murder does
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: add to very sinister aspect to the way this car
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: is prowling about. But the scariest footage is what was
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: recorded inside the church, moments before the murder. Somebody dressed
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: in full SWAT gear is seen to enter the building
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: and begins to skulk around swinging a hammer. The open
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: doors looking into the various rooms. At one point they
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: look like they're trying to force open a locked door.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Towards the end of the recording they can be seen
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: smashing something off camera with a hammer. From what I
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: can tell this was a window. It's thought they might
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: have been forcing the doors and breaking windows to make
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the murder look like a burglary gone wrong. What happened
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: immediately after this footage is unknown as this is all
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: the police have released but now we know what the
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: murder weapon was. The puncture wounds on miss's face and
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: chest with the results are being bludgeoned repeatedly with the
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: sharp end of a claw hammer. Who this person is
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: has never been discovered. The SWAT gear looks very authentic
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: and it conveniently obscures their face and body and it
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: prevented any forensic evidence being left at the scene. As
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: a result this killer is still out there somewhere. This
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: is some fairly short footage recorded on a home security system.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Jack McIntyre and his girlfriend Jordan Baranskas fell asleep together
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: on the sofa after watching a movie. Jordan awoke to
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: find her purse had been stolen. Upon reviewing the Nest
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: camera recordings they saw this figure standing at the top
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: of the stairs. He stands there for a full 15
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: minutes before leaving. He's not clear whether he had anything
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: planned over them to just rob them but it's creepy
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: to think that someone could break into your home and
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: stand there watching over you for a quarter of an
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: hour and then leave without being noticed. In the UK
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: the murder of James Boldier shocked the nation when it happened.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: In 1993 two 10 year old boys Robert Thompson and
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: John Venables kidnapped three year old James Boldier. They led
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: him to a railway line and tortured him to death.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Among other abuses they threw paint into his eyes, inserted
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: batteries into his anus, threw bricks at him and shattered
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: his skull with an iron bar. When they were done
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: with him they laid his body onto the tracks where
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: he was cutting half by a passing train. I remember
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: the case vividly because I was the same age as
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: the murderers where it happened and these CCTV images were
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: all over the papers. Security cameras weren't so advanced back
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: then so we only have grainy still images of the
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: abduction but perhaps that's even worse than a video. There's
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: even more blanks for the mind to fill in. It
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: showed the moment the two boys led James away whilst
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: his mother was momentarily distracted. This is the last image
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: of him alive. Witnesses heard them saying, come on baby
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: as they led him away. There's also this image of
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Thompson and Venables looking for a victim. They had hung
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: around the mall looking for a small child to abduct.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Their idea was to take a toddler to a busy
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: road and then kick them into oncoming traffic for fun.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: They had already attempted to abduct one child that day
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: and they'd nearly got away with it but they were
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: spotted by the kid's mother before they could lead him away.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: James Boldier wasn't so lucky and this image displays the
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: true horror of the situation. There's something so trusting about
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: ways holding Venable's hand. He's probably wondering what kind of
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: fun game they've got planned. He's too young to worry,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: too young to even understand that there's evil in the world.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: And as haunting as his image is, imagine how it
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: feels for the mother to have this as the last
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: image ever taken of a son. A one moment of
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: carelessness forever immortalized in his few greeny images. This footage
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: isn't too disturbing on the face of it. It shows
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: 58-year-old Gary Simpson buying camping supplies with his 9-year-old niece,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Carly Trent. What's disturbing about it is the things that
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: he's buying and what he intends to do with him.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Earlier that day, Gary had got Carly out of school
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: by claiming that her father had been in a terrible
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: car accident and that he needed to take it to
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: see him. Of course this was a lie and once
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: she was out of school, they visited the supermarket and
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: bought supplies. Among the items were a child's bikini and nightgown,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: a reclining chair, lipstick and nail polish. There is also
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: what looks like, enough food and water to keep them
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: going for a long time. After leaving the shop, they
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: disappeared and neither of them were seen for another six days.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: A number alert was issued for Carly's disappearance in the
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Tennessee area and a huge manhunt was initiated. Eventually they
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: were tracked down in a remote location. Carly was still
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: alive and Simpson was arrested. Among the items were covered
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: from their campsites, they found a handwritten list of sexual
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: acts that Simpson wanted to carry out with his niece.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: At the bottom of the list, he indicated that he
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: would murder Carly and kill himself if any of this
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: was discovered. He admitted to the police that he'd got
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: part way through the list of sex acts and given
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: a 25-year jail sentence for a sexual assault of a minor.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: After watching his footage, I feel like Carly shows some
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: signs of knowing that something is wrong. She seems to
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: try and catch the cashier's eye. Maybe she's trying to
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: tell him something without her uncle noticing, but perhaps I'm
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: just reading too much into it because I know what
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: happens next, but even so it's the casual way that
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Simpson goes about his business whilst knowing the kind of
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: devious acts has got planned. That's what gets me the most.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: This CCTV footage captures the kidnapping of Samantha Koenigs at
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: the hands of serial killer Israel Keys. Keys plans as
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: crimes meticulously, so we would have been watching Samantha for
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: a long time before he struck. Samantha worked the late
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: shift at the Common Grounds coffee stand. He knew that
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: she would be alone at closing town and distracted as
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: she closed down the stall. Keys approached the stand minutes
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: before closing and orders a coffee. You can see Samantha
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: making casual chit-chat with Keys as she prepares his drink.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: As she hands it over to him, he pulls out
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: to go and tells her that he wants money. She's
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: made to turn out the lights and she complies, and
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: then she hands over any valuables and empties the cash register.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: He makes a get down on the floor and then
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: he climbs in through the window. Just as he's climbing in,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: someone can be seen returning to their car and driving
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: past just meters from where it's all happening. they even
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: get out of their car to adjust something in the
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: back seat in direct sight of the window. This might
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: have been Samantha's last hope of rescue, but the driver
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: seems completely oblivious and drives away. Once inside, Keyes ties
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Samantha up and leads her out the back door and
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: across the car park. At one point, she manages to
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: escape from his clutches and runs away, but he quickly
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: tackles it over the ground and threatens to kill her. Off-camera,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: he leads her to his truck and puts her bound
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: in the mobilite as the in the back. It's the
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: casual nature of the kidnapping that comes across in his footage.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: It's not as a occluded place, people can be seen
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: walking around in the background, even as he's leading the
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: woman away. It's scary how easily he manages to get
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: away with it. This casual nonchalance can also be seen
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: in what he does next. He tells Samantha that he's
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: kidnapping her from ransom and takes her back to his
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: shed at his house. He blasts loud music so his
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: wife and daughter can't hear from inside the house and
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: any rape Samantha and strangles her to death. When his
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: finished tea looks the shed and goes to pack for
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: a two week cruise that he has planned with his family.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: After enjoying a relaxing holiday, he returns to Samantha's 14
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: day old corpse and stitches her eyelids so that they
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: look like they're open. This is so he could pose
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: a body for a ransom photo and make it look
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: like she was still alive. Once he had his photograph,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: he dismembered a body and dumped it into a fishing
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: hole of a frozen lake. Once again it's knowing what
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: happens afterwards that makes this CCTV footage so disturbing. You
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: see the moment that this girl looking forward to going
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: home and having a friendly chat with the last customer
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: goes from being easy going to panic to full submission.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: There's one last dash for freedom and then it's all over.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: She's never seen that live again. This last piece of
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: footage I've got no background for. I found this clip
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: a few years ago and I thought it'd be good
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: to make a video about creepy baby monitor footage so
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: save it to a thumb drive along with some of
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: the less interesting clips. I discovered it again the other
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: day but now I can't find any information. It appears
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: to be some sort of nanny camera capturing someone acting
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: very strangely towards an infant. It looks fairly normal at
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: first so you can hardly really tell what's going on
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: and but then they lean over the child and you
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: can see his legs start to kick. If I remember
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: correctly it's supposed to be either the mother or the
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: baby's sister trying to smother the child. They do give
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: up quite quickly. Maybe they have a change your heart
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: or they hear someone coming or maybe this is just
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: a practice run for something they plan to do in
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: the future. I have no idea what's happening here for
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: sure and maybe it's better not to know. It's a
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: very short and bad quality clip. You can barely make
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: it out. It's only really when the baby's legs start
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: kicking out in panic that the image starts to make sense.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: There's a true sense of horror about this clip. I
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: don't know what it is about it. The sense of
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: not knowing what's happening for sure but getting a feeling
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: that it's something really bad. I did try to find
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: some more information on this clip but what do I
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: put into Google that won't take me down a very
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: dark rabbit hole. I'm pretty sure that if I googled
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: baby smothering video I'd be getting put on some sort
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: of watch list pretty soon and this gives me a
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: great opportunity to talk about today's sponsor NordVPN. Just kidding
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: I don't really have a sponsor. I'm just trying to
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: lighten the mood after watching this horrible footage but I
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: hope you found this case informative. I'm currently recording this
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: in a car in the middle of a caravan park
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: in Scotland. The car is the only place I could
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: record it because I didn't want any other people in
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: the caravan to hear me talking about baby smothering and
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: hammer attacks. If this episode sounds a bit more ropey
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: than usual, blame it on the unusual recording environment. If
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: you're new to the channel please subscribe. It would mean
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: a lot to me. So thanks to everyone who likes
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: what I do. I actually managed to keep it up
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: for an entire month that was I didn't actually think
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: I was going to do it. I started to really
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: flag towards the end but yeah kept going and every
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: day I did a drawing. Some days maybe not as
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: good as others but it was a fun experiment. So
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: I thought I would show them off. A lot of
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: people that I've been asking to see my artwork so
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: I thought this was a good way. I don't know
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: if it's a display of my best art because obviously
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: this was I had to do one drawing every day.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: I wasn't able to spend a lot of time on
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: the drawings but we'll take a look and also people
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: were asking about buying these. So what I'm going to
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: do is put these on eBay. Apart from this first
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: one because I want to keep that it's kind of
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: my logo and yeah I want to keep the original.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: All the others are put linked below to the eBay
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: and if you want to buy them you can. It
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: will be free postage anywhere in the world. So yeah
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: if you like the artwork enough you can own it
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: yourself for what I'll do. I'll sign each artwork that
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: I sell and if you want a note written either
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: on the back or on a separate bit of paper
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: I'll do that as well. A personal note and also
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I'll throw in some stickers. Two or three stickers I
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: don't know how many I've got left. I'll have to
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: have a look but you'll get a couple of stickers.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: People will be asking about buying these stickers as well
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: but I kind of want to find a cheaper way
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: of getting them made. They're coming out a bit expensive
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: per sticker I don't think. I'd have to be selling
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: them for like a pound per sticker and it doesn't
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: seem worth it for one sticker, one small sticker but
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: I'll throw them in with the pictures if you purchase one.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: So yeah this is my original logo. I redid my
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: logo and if you wanted to own it you can
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: own it on a t-shirt. There's actually bleach. I use
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: bleach to get the highlights on yeah so and this
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: is what this is what is also on the stickers.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Obviously a lot smaller. And people will be asking what
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: logo is. That turned into my logo so now I've
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: redrew it all sort of dripping and stuff. Anyway that
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: was Inktober day 1. Now Inktober day 2 I'll be
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: honest I was kind of drunk. I've got a running
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: club I go to and it's more of a drinking
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: club than a running club and that night I did
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: have a few so yeah I don't think this is
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: a good example. Excellent Bumi Huma parody. Very good. Yeah
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: not very good actually but if you if you if
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: you purchase this or throwing an extra drawing which is
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: not an inktober drawing it's called this TFU nerd.
