Dude I love how the female interrogator was silent the whole time then immediately bombards him with emotional distress and confrontation.<br>That must've sent his anxiety skyrocketing.

That must've sent his anxiety skyrocketing.

@Sashrin yea I'll agree with you on that

@David_ Again, if she had it so easy, why have her there at all? He wasn't confessing when they revealed the videotape, they needed to push and compromise with him on it. You don't just present evidence with no tactic behind it during a police interrogation. Maybe it was all her, maybe the other detective could've gotten the confession alone, but I don't think your average person could say either way. It's obvious it's an act to us, but maybe not to someone just irrefutably caught out over the fact they lied about a murder and is frantically trying to think of an explanation.

@Valerie Aust hey calm down no need to seethe, just change your ways. People make mistakes it's OK.

@Sashrin you really think it was her fake transparent performance that got him to confess or the fact that he just lied to them and she tells him about how they have him on video so now he feels like he's been caught up in his own story worrying about how much they actually know? She had it easy.

@Sashrin of course he knew it. of course it was clear that both would interrogate him. bad cop, good cop/double the pressure isn't a new concept. her performance was just like in a cheap bad theatre production, all I'm saying. nothing about the strategy. she went full on cringe with her voice.

@arenasification You think the male detective wasn't aware of what she was going to do in the interrogation? That she was supposed to sit there silently the whole time, maybe lightly interject occasionally? Why have her there at all if so?

It's a two-pronged approach, the male detective kept a calm and sympathetic character while constantly providing outs to him while she directly and emotionally confronts him. Which yes, is obvious to us from our analytical standpoint. But to someone caught out in multiple lies over a murder he committed, it absolutely should be nerve wracking and would push him towards listening to the male detective's offers.

Ultimately, you can't really know if this was a bad tactic. The amount of stress and twisted mental state of someone covering up for a murder isn't something we can easily place ourselves into. I don't know how universally successful the tactic is, but it worked here, and the logic behind it is clear.

@Connor Coultas not a correct comparison at all. The male detective sounds normal, she sounds ridiculous. She may be a good detective (investigating etc) but "acting" like she should have here, is not her strong suit. Just cause they were LUCKY and this idiot confessed doesn't mean she was good. Give me a break.

@Ellis Dee so fake yet managed to get a criminal to confess with her "fake acting"

“We’re just fact finders!  Theriously puhlease!”

@arenasification She is a detective not an actress. She also helped get a confession which is her job. That's like a pilot landing a plane and you complain about him being a bad cook.

@RJ Mathieu it was a genius move.

The last thing this dude heard when killing this girl was a woman going through extreme distress.

They used that to their advantage and threw it on the table when it was hot. And it worked.

I thought she was some kind of note taker or like court scribe until she came in hot

@idklol <br>Eh, that onslaught of emotional begging was kind of cringey for me watching it, and I'm a woman not trying to slag off women. But it was only cringey for a moment until I remembered that it was obviously planned out that way for a reason.

@idklol

@V A "losing her composure"? Lmao you think it wasnt planned?

She reminds me of other women who have called me out and it scared the shit out of me!!!

@Tavion Taylor it was still very cringeworthy. don't know how he didn't break out in laughter. was hard to watch

@V A comment expert coming out here with the real knowledge on how to get confession, not like she got them the confession or anything

@sunkenship Yeah I think people mistake her emotional approach as an emotional outbreak

@Lloyd Lim I like that saying, there aren't any that I can think of in English that mean the same thing exactly but a similar phrase would be when "you are too close to the problem"

@V A Right because detectives just lose their composure all willy-nilly

@arenasification she’s not even an actress, she’s a detective. And she did her job well because he confessed.

@idklol these are the kinds of guys that can never have a stable relationship and it clearly shows.

it's so funny reading all these comments of people who say the female detective did a bad job as if they know what they're talking about at all. it's kinda sad how pre-occupied so many guys are with slagging off women.

@arenasification but she got the confession though

@arenasification it worked tho, so I’m not sure you can call her a bad actress if the guy, you know, bought it.

@Derek Raynaud please, she was so cringey. bad actress

@slovní curling A saying in Chinese. Ppl who are in the moment are blind while the observer are clear.

Especially them deciding to let the female do it bc hearing a frantic females voice is what drove him to do what he did. She sucker punched his mind

She is such a bad actress that I bet the only thing that skyrocketed was his entertainment.

@V A lmao you act like there wasn’t a plan and that this isn’t what she does for a living. She’s v obviously really laying it on and it worked, so you think it’s a coincidence she didn’t say a single word until the male detective got more hostile in his questioning?

You mean losing her composure? Ironic to your comment, that was the least helpful part of the whole thing.


I see some comments to the effect that the female interrogator was amazing, and I believe they're right.  However, it wasn't her over the top demeanor when she "barged" into the conversation that got me.  Rather, it was when she dropped her voice, lower and lower, as she realized she was getting him to agree with her.

That's when I realized it was all an act.  Before that it felt contrived and stilted, but when I realized she was just setting up the moment when her voice became almost hypnotic, I completely changed my opinion of her on the spot.

As I was realizing this, Lee began to disagree again, and her voice rose in challenge, then lowered when he began nodding again, calm and soothing.

She was pretty amazing.  I might have recommended setting a baseline a little lower than she did, except now it's easy to see how masterful she is at her craft, so obviously I can't really critique.

Her partner set him up, but she knocked him down.

@TBonerton the veiled sexism here is really something. You and the guy above you have issues, I'd say...

@Dusty Savoy yes that’s what i was thinking!

Another excellent female interrogator to watch is the one who coaxed the confession out of Chris Watts. She was excellent....

@Dosidicus Gigas you should hate her for being a cop, not because she's a woman

@Suzuki GSXFA It worked. She knew what to say to get him to talk.

@Gillroy Garlic thats what I was thinking lol damm near gave me brain damage

@Suzuki GSXFA Don't forget that Lee was known for having a lot of luck with women. So having a calm and rational detective would only trigger his fight or flight mechanism which would be too soon. They basically needed the female interrogator to play the role of a troubled and emotional woman in order to fit the stereotype that Lee was trying to create. Begging him at first and completely losng interest in him later was what worked for Lee.
But let's say Lee was innocent. Unlike some assumed, the female interrogator wouldn't make him confess falsely. It's the exact opposite, she would've pissed him off in the same way she pissed people in the comments off. Because people like Lee would desperately want her to listen, especially when they were in the right and "a stupid woman" was being totally unreasonable.
In conclusion the roles the interrogators decided to play were pre-designed based on what they know about the suspect. And in Lee's case, a rational male AND an emotional female interrogator were neccessary in order for everything to work out. And both of the them played their own role perfectly.

I loved how she blatantly ignored him and was on her phone when the other detective went to get water. Lee stared at her for a looong time; you can see him getting slowly getting sick as he realized the pretty, cheerful, & sweet looking one definitely the "BAD cop"

Facts. She had me crying. Her ability to turn up and come back down is amazing. They seem like an outstanding duo

@smoothlikechoco Totally missed this.  The Maestra.

@Gillroy Garlic man you need to get your ears checked if you think that's "shrieking" lmao besides it was all tactics. She did a great job

@Suzuki GSXFA shes very smart and the fact she stayed silent for the first half only to pop in here and there and then put on that desperate act while also grilling him was amazing. criminal psychology is more than just "begging" shes super smart. "but thats not true because we have proof." amazing

@poooky321 of course you did because you are not guilty of murdering your girlfriend. Shes smart in her tactics

I thought she was unprofessional.   Who begs?  Please?  Really?

The best bit for me was was all the silence and no eye contact from her. He kept looking for her approval before she even acknowledged him. Silent, on her phone, busy, unbothered, unimpressed by him. Nice. Very nice.

I was wondering what it was about her that got me on edge. I honestly hates listening to her and your comment made me understand why. She is conniving and manipulative. I probably would have confessed just so she would stop talking.

The constant shrieking, and nagging at 29:30 would make a lot of innocent people confess just to shut her up.

She’s so scary and in his face and he doesn’t know that he can just say “I’m not answering any questions”

I think she oversold it a bit, myself, especially since this was more a formality than anything. She and the other detec. knew he was guilty when they walked into the room together, but then again, you can't just tap the stupid on the shoulder anymore- ya gotta hit 'em with a sledgehammer. Crim psych is a fascinating rabbit hole.

@Kansas Kuhlmeyer couldn't agree more. You're an author at heart ❤

Beautifully stated. You could not have explained it better.


I actually liked the female detective. She budged in at the right time and threw Lee off guard. She was a complete opposite to the lead detective and I think she was trying to be the "assertive nice cop" and the realistic one. The way she pleaded and got emotional, I think she was trying to confuse Lee and get him to be sympathetic or guilty for what he did. She almost sounded like a teenage girl, perhaps to get him to think about Savannah. She read his body language and charector and knew he wasn't a man incapable of remorse so appealing to him emotionally made him more frantic and more likely to confess. Also, the lead detective was great the whole time and I liked how he let her talk during the end of the interrogation. In the end, the strategy worked.

@Haleigh Morgan hey ... You know what? let it be at that.. Did not mean to hurt anyone here .. Just put out my thought, never was convincing no one here...

@KRISHNA Kona what makes you think you haven’t convinced me? Your sources and sound logic have 100% convinced me that only men should be detectives and police officers. Great job! I feel so grateful to have come across your words in this comment section, you are truly doing the lord’s work!

@Haleigh Morgan and about the incel club thing.. I choose to ignore it.. Because you know thats what i do when dogs bark mam.

@Haleigh Morgan i dont need to convince you as long as i know what i know is true.

@Madison show me a lady working as a miner, carpenter, septic tank cleaners, rig workers, masons and many more... At least 20% .. Now there may be around 5-8%. Show me a figure greater than 20% and ill accept that im wrong.

@Terraform thank you buddy... I just gave my opinion .. You're free to give yours as well.. I guess you have to learn your manners sir.

@christine michelle sorry mam... You got me wrong .. Threatened by powerful women you sa.. hell no mam.. Well that is my problem .. Women who fight for equality only really fight for positions of power like politics, bureaucratic positions, CEO's, sports, so on so forth. Its never about equal representation in fields like carpentry, blacksmiths, rig workers, mining etc. At the very least i have never seen one woman activist in my life till date saying they wanted representation in the above said vocations. My simple question to you and all in this comment section who are currently thinking im stupid is, why are these difficult and tough jobs ALMOST(there are exceptions) always a mans duty. Now isn't that hypocritical.

@KRISHNA Kona YouTube comment sections are a great place to convince people that being a feminist is dumb you are rlly killing it here Krishna I applaud you keep going buddy plz let me know when the incel club meeting is I would love to join in

@DenialOfLife please be a joke please be a joke.

If its not: it's an interrogation technique to get an emotional response from the suspect in a real life murder case. In no way was it supposed to be pleasant to anyone in this scenario. It's like good cop bad cop, it's a technique to garner sympathy or trust from the suspect in order to get them to confess or at least nervous, or in some cases calm enough to explain what happened.

Hahaahah she was a shit detective. Totally a woman move crying and hollering

Hahaahah she was a shit detective. Totally a woman move crying and hollering

I think the only thing that worked was when they started describing the incriminatory evidence.

@KRISHNA Kona since when was anything a mans job? we aren’t living in the 1900s, get over it.

@qwerty keyboard I completely agree with this statement!

@qwerty keyboard I completely agree with this statement!

@KRISHNA Kona ur weird af holy, chill out

@KRISHNA Kona ur weird af holy, chill out

@KRISHNA Kona we found ourselves a special snowflake folks lol you actually believe that being a detective is a man's job while at the same time admitting she got the job done(because, ya know shes actually good at her job. Gender has nothing to do with it) and then the whole 'its really obvious you're a feminist' comment, I have to laugh. You're so threatened by powerful women its honesty funny

Btw detectives are trained to recognize what will and won't  be the best approach to getting a suspect to open up to them and confess. Some people need to have this detectives approach, some need to feel like the detective is their buddy and some need a tough approach from detectives along with many other methods. It all goes down to someone's personality and a good detective of any gender will see that and know what to do to get the job done

@KRISHNA Kona look up the definition of feminist. it just means that men are equal to women. if you disagree, your opinion on anything related to sex or gender doesn’t matter.

@Ubermensch he probably was quaking remembering how Savanah was begging for her life

@qwerty keyboard sorry mate... I doubt it ... Genderless is not desirable its detrimental to human societies.. Studies suggest so.. If you want sources just ask for it.

Look how she turns the emotion on/off at will. Whining/nagging voice, sounded forced and quite annoying.

@Dan Paxton at least reply to the right person if u wanna say something to them, L for both of u

@KRISHNA Kona I hope you have a very difficult time finding a partner, realistically if you die alone you would be doing potential partners a service.

@qwerty keyboard i think krishna is tryna troll people

@qwerty keyboard i think krishna is tryna troll people

@KRISHNA Kona they wouldnt have gotten him to confess as quickly as he did if she didnt do that

@qwerty keyboard what ever that means... <br>I just gave my opinion... But at the same time if there are women who want to work in areas they traditionally did not in the past, more power to them .... Like i said equality of opportunity should exist.. But one should accept the reality that equality of outcome cannot be expected.

@KRISHNA Kona "being a detective is a mans [sic] job" ... "she got the job done"<br>pick one

@KRISHNA Kona "being a detective is a mans [sic] job" ... "she got the job done"
pick one

@Ubermensch The footage they show of Lee kicking himself after confessing is proof that the female detective portrayed exactly who she needed to portray to touch the right nerve with him.

They dressed up the act as a family who deserves proper closure... but to me, it felt like who she was portraying was Savannah begging for her life.
I think their strategy was that Lee was the kind of guy spending every waking minute since killing her wishing for a chance to undo what he had done.

@moved account wow .. I did not know that .. 😁

@moved account wow .. I did not know that .. 😁

@hailey fields Men are better in many areas ... And some people like you find it too difficult and sour to digest it. Sorry to be so blunt while i say that.. But that is the truth .. No disrespect to women.. Women have their own areas of expertise, where they excel. In fact the first two teachers of life were women, my mother and teachers(also dad). So i hold em in high regard. But competing with men on equal grounds in all areas is just plain stupid. Now that is why we have mens games and women's games separately.

@NatsuONF I am in the law enforcement .. But im not a detective not interested to be one. And nope sir/mam, im not  a feminist(the west has effed up that movement long ago) .. I believe in equality of opportunity but not equality of outcome.

@Derpingy wonder full the LLama Potato Some men have very strong superiority complexes :/ unfortunately. They’ve been taught they’re better, and in all their narcissism they believed it.

She's as 'lead'as her partner ,they're using  tactics/strategies that they both review before any interview..watch carefully at 28.12 to 30.10 she takes her shoe off   ,gets closer and signals her partner with her foot so he immediately stops talking so she can take over..it was all planned out hours before Rodarte sat in that chair...

@KRISHNA Kona lol trying way too hard to be a 'detective,' "i can tell ur a feminist" calm down pal

Btw from reading you comment i can see you identify yourself as a strong feminist. Its very visible.

Sorry to say but she did some real bad acting..that is not how a detective talks .. judge me all you want but being a  detective is a mans job. <br>At the end i will not deny this, she got the job done. And i think it might not work with everyone like it worked on this piece of shiiit "Lee".

She was such a bad actor though. That "pleading" and fake crying was so unconvincing.


I have zero idea why everyone is criticizing the female detective here.  Both detectives have clearly planned out roles and do their jobs well here.  She played her role well and got exactly the reaction they were looking for.  Her role was to emotionally overwhelm him and that's what happened.

Yeah idk why people were complaining when her and male cop got the confession out of Lee. Like the way she was acting obviously did it’s job. Probably just misogyny as usual.

@Milchi i doubt they give a shit about the "audience" its an interrogation not a show

I guess it worked but her whining and pleading would have irritated me or most men. The subject takes it better than I or maybe most men would. The sound of a shrill whining and pleading women is not generally one that induces truth telling and admission or results in appeals for morality. More like anger and resentment towards her and digging in of the heels. in that moment you're more likely to dislike her and therefore not give her what she wants. she becomes almost hysterical whether an act or not. Her appeals that the victim is like her own child and someone's daughter (everyone is someone's son or daughter) seem forced and not that effective she doesn't exude warmth or genuine concern for the victim or their family. It's really the admission that they have security footage contradicting his story that does most of the legwork in getting a confession.

@Troy Blackford Equating every critique to a woman as misogyny doesn't help fighting misogyny.

I know why they are criticizing her: and I suspect you do too. Too many people feel comfortable not analyzing their misogyny.

@Milchi the interrogation wasn't intended for an audience bro

@A_True_Generic_Gamer Both the male and female detectives had very calculated actions.  She did not just lose it.  Another commenter noticed how they both have a signal.  The female detective taps the male detective gently with her foot when she needs him to stop speaking and he immediately does so.  This also happens during her "outburst" and it's clear that they had intended to do this all along.

What if she actually just lost it? And we're all being bamboozled here? She just said fuck it, I'm not a good actor, time to give real emotion. That would be a pretty big brain strat. She could still just play it off as an act maybe.

It's just because women are shamed for having emotions. I'm AFAB and I'm very used to having my emotions blamed on hormones. See also: any joke about someone being on "that time of the month." She did a wonderful job and I sincerely doubt any man would be criticized like this.

Yeah her job is to show him how ppl feel about this, like Savannahs parents

@Milchi "usually results" forgot you were a detective

I had a similar interaction when I was being interviewed, they were following a narrative that wasn’t true, and asked for a honest confession to a story that wasn’t real. The pressure you feel when being, interrogated in this position, honestly is terrifying, it should never go beyond emotion, The guy detective handled the whole situation perfectly, calm and passive aggressive.

ayyy i played pajama sam as a kid, "theres no need to hide when its dark outside!"

@the nameless it worked, essentially, because the evidence was substantial. You don't need a female interrogator to crack his base. It's just super cringe and annoying. Also not fun to watch for the audience.

@Milchi bruh. it was not "yelling". and you may find that annoying, you're not the one who's in the situation of that murderer. interrogations are psychological wars. you can't just comment "it's not convincing". did it work? it worked.

@Milchi actually the lead detective is playing the bad cop and the female detective is playing the good cop. she uses her emotions to try and confuse him and make him trust her. shes trying to find the good in him to get him to say something that can help them especially since the bad cop act wasnt working at all up to that point. its not supposed to be intimidating or convincing. he just went through an hour of getting interrogated by the male detective, and the female detective is supposed to come in as the nice and friendly person who hes gonna trust. he feels less threatened by her and is more likely to confide

most people can't stand hysterical women yelling. its not convincing nor intimmidating. its annoying. This usually results in suspects shutting down or experiencing feelings of superiority

exactly. she seems a bit annoying to me too tbh but these interrogations aren't meant to be a show for us. it's a real world, a real murderer, this is real. and in reality, especially when you murdered someone, you don't find emotional outbursts annoying. people really should look the expressions of the murderer when the female detective play the "humanity" card. it's incredible how fast the murderer broke his character.


The female detective is playing superior mind games. Using the stereotypes about women being emotional and to her advantage, to overwhelm the perpetrator. She's definitely acting when she says i think of my little girl, not to say that she definitely doesn't have a daughter that age, but she deliberately sat silent for a long while to intimidiate him firstly since he didn't know what this detective was thinking and then she deliberately overplayed it and the good cop bad cop angle

After this female detective here: https://youtu.be/ymcNhAgO7Pw I seriously believe nobody could impress me. She was able to find her way to a man who was accused in rape, to confess for murders to women (one of the victims wasn't even reported as missing) and lead them to their bodies. The guy turned to be a serial killer. They were about to find two bodies after they get a search warrant but they would never be able to relate him to the other 3.

@Random Ginger Art yes! Good to see at least some poeple getting it!

I think her and the male investigator made the perfect duo. They are such a contrast to each other it was clearly overwhelming the suspect.

@Zeh Sackett and if he is being serious let's pray for him

@dbone024 lol she was trying to get to his heart she did a good job

@Zeh Sackett you correct when you use the word boys not men...but I believe she grabbed his attention with her emotions got to his cold heart

She probably meant what she said when talking about her little girl why she got emotional she used it to her advantage.

She said "we", the male cop said "I". Wonder if they planned that.

It’s interesting to see a female investigator. Obviously interrogations are highly psychological and a woman in the room allows for a whole new dynamic and strategy.

@Simon Peter's Teachings Oh you're right, I never thought of it like that.

@Simon Peter's Teachings nah son, you are NOT ME. DON'T EVEN TRY MINE GAMES SON I'M TO SMART FOR THEM

Lol, good job speaking for her, galaxy brain

@dbone024 I am you. Everyone in the world is you, it's why we call it Youniverse. Dualism implies oneness, just as left implies right. Opposites are the same. Nothing you do is hidden, "dbone" J. You think you know shit... XD At least it's funny to watch you scramble in your own confusion XDDD

Is a male cop female cop, instead of good and bad ^^

@Simon Peter's Teachings yo you mad sus for that comment bro.

Yo she saw something in this man that I did NOT catch at first! That emotional play, I personally felt was overacting, but the results shocked me! Shows I have more to learn about feminine energy still:) Great detective, as well as her male counterpart! What a team!

@dbone024 If you're trolling then well done.

Wrong. The female detective is likely on her period or being overly emotional for no reason when the interrogation calls for professionalism like her boss displays. He should have kicked her out of the room at least or told her to go get Lee some snacks or a sandwich because she was well out of line. It's amazing to me that women like this are allowed to carry loaded weapons. It's downright scary.

Lady's boys often can't stand pretty girls not acknowledging them or treating them with contempt. The guy was also pretty and very fit, another thing they don't like. The most impressive thing is how simple their formula and profiling was.

She was appealing to his emotions and morals that the man has. Not every criminal is a diagnosed psychopath therefore it’s always worth trying to get at their emotions

@sunnycoast4558 yeah it was superior, it was emotional intimidation and the criminal fell for it hard, it's woerd that misogyny or plain stupidity stops people from seeing that it was all an act and the act worked out fabulously

wow overexaggerated much? she literally cried, begged and said "that could be my daughter" superior?

she was excellent indeed. not to take anything away from the male investigator (he did a great job too), but i believe the female detective's quick and to the point intervention was what turned the tide. well done to both of them!

I thought she was brilliant. I was quite surprised to see how negative people are being about her approach!

Sociopaths become experts on understanding how their words and body language affect other people.  Without empathy, they have to operate at a different level.


In case anyone is interested, I found the reddit on the case. He's still awaiting trial because Florida is trying hard not to screw this one up, and his sister is also in jail for a separate murder, which was caught on film also. Seems like killing on video runs in their family.

Ok so the police have a hard job. However, those  two detective's should have watched the two who handled the Chris watts interrogation. The woman just whines on, and the other one seems like a Muppet. Not very in control and their role playing is laughable

Whaaat? His sister also committed murder? Gtfo! That's crazy. You sure about this?

WTF his sister is also a murderer? maybe it's something genetic

@Darthplagueis13 I’m sorry and you know this ...how 😳

@VCGTdunker The facts of the matter are that 90% of decisions made by people are emotional not logical. When you account for 5% or so that are psychopaths it's less than that for the average person. A stressful situation putting you in an extremely emotional state. Unless you have experienced this a lot in your life you won't have a rational thought. You will be think completely emotionally.
The question is what emotion do you choose guilt or fear/selfishness. There is nothing rational about the decision. Most people think of themselves as good people and would feel extreme guilt.

Obviously fish boy isn't that good of a person and let's fear drive him. He killed her cause she feared she would ruin his life. He hid the evidence cause he feared for his life. It's really that simple.

O my god 🙀🙀🙀 what is her name so we can look it up . Who did she kill ?🤔

@VCGTdunker you couldn't even know that unless you've killed someone in a fit of rage before

You speak of rational people not committing murders. My daughter's grandmother was murdered 8 years ago by her boyfriend of 10 years. This is a man I never once saw raise his voice, or even get upset. I saw him in a store just two weeks before he killed her, and he was asking me to please come see her.
The night before this happened, my daughter spent the night with them. The next day her grandmother's car was found on the highway with the hood up, like something was wrong with the car. He had the mindset to get her car to highway to pretend she went missing from there, when the truth was he had strangled her, shoved her body into a 55 gallon drum and rolled her out into the woods behind her house.
Once he finally confessed and was arrested, he bonded out of jail and tried to commit suicide jumping off of a bridge. Unfortunately for him, he survived. Took forever, but he finally got 40 years and is paralyzed from the waist down.
We still struggle today with understanding how such a seemingly gentle and sane 55 year old man did this to the woman he claimed to love.

Good looks for sharing this was hella inteesting to just tie into this story. Thank you  my thoughts have accepted this and is glad this is now apart of the thought bank

@Illumibunny Madness just a minor correction, psychopathy is probably what you meant not psychosis. Psychosis is what people with say for example schizophrenia experience, its basically a symptom.

@VCGTdunker completely disagree, its not an accident, why would you call 911? Self preservation is the next step, the victim's life is over, and your will be over too if you dont dispose of them, I mean cutting someone up is definitely messed up, but trying to cover up one's crime is just natural. Even if he calls 911, he will still makeup a story to save him self.

Her sister might be Stabby Arias for all we know lol.

Don’t move to Florida. I came here from Indiana thinking it was such a better move, I promise it’s not. 😂

Oh shit!  The sister murdered someone too?

@VCGTdunker Not knowing is the opposite of an assumption, but hey, I didn’t realize you were a psychologist expert on the effects of stress on the human brain. You’re the one assuming 💀

@VCGTdunker Also by the way it does not matter if the person was rational before murdering someone or not. Once you murder your mind isn't rational at all and you're not going to think of calling 911. What is going through your mind at that time is a bunch of irrational thoughts rushing because you are in a state of panic and you know what you did was wrong but you know if you tell someone then you will go to prison so what seems rational to you at the time is to hide what you did hope it will never be discovered and keep it locked away as a secret from everyone but that is not usually how it ends up.

@VCGTdunker I agree with @Darthplagueis13 you have absolutely no idea how you would react in that situation unless you are actually in that situation for yourself. And also Lee is not a psycho, he showed true remorse for what he had done even if he plead not guilty for it, the video footage of him crying and telling himself he is stupid for what he had done calling himself a piece of shit and apologizing to savannah even after doing what he did shows he has emotions. Psychotic people can not feel those emotions and he would have not apologized for it or cried at all.

Sure people with psychosis are good at acting but not that good. They only know how to react by learning how others react in certain situations. He said his mother was addicted to methamphetamines when he was growing up and so yes he had a dysfunctional family which can lead to problems in the future, And yes he was intelligent enough to know he fucked up because he stated he was going places and he was stupid for not using his brain or just telling her to leave him alone so yes he knew he was wrong for doing it.

People with psychosis don't know that it is wrong they don't know the difference between right and wrong because they lack the emotion to feel bad for others. So before you assume someone is a psycho I think you should actually do your research on what exactly it is first. And I don't give a fuck if you read this or not or whether you get upset and pissy. Educate yourself before assuming.

Thank you. I was looking for some updated info

@Darthplagueis13 That's true. The Jodi video seems to indicate that she could be a psychopath both for the lack of remorse she feels and the planning. In this, Rodarte seems to be too panicked to be put into that category.

@VCGTdunker I'm not arguing about his guilt or innocence, I merely said that I don't think he's a psycho. I think that he was convinced he had commited a murder and that he panicked. I doubt the term "manslaughter" even crossed his mind on that parking space. A genuine sociopath would not experience remorse to this level, neither for the victim nor themselves.

@VCGTdunker The thing is, people aren't that rational. If you were to put 100 people into this situation I can basically guarantee you that only a minority of them will call the police. It's an extreme situation that usually invokes a fight or flight response and since the victim is already dead there's noone to fight.
It's not like you imagine it. Everyone likes to think that if they get into trouble they are just gonna own up to their mistakes and take whatever punishment awaits them head on but when it actually happens they suddenly try to make excuses and try to get out of that situation.
Sure, there are probably people capable of making the rational choice but if the only ones to ever flee the scene were the psychos police work would be hell of a lot easier.
Fact of the matter is, the rational choice is the direct opposite of what all of your survival instincts are telling you in that instance and few people can just supress that, especially not the kind of people who lack the self-control to not accidentially kill others in an argument.

@VCGTdunker Nah, getting rid of their remains is the easy part. Just knowing that in one fell swoop you've ended one life and likely ruined your own is enough to make a man panic. That doesn't require anyone to be a psycho, it just requires them to be utterly terrified of what they've done and what might happen now.


my dad is a lawyer and he has always told me that if i'm ever arrested for any crime, regardless of how minor the offense or whether i'm innocent or not, NEVER. EVER. speak without your lawyer present. hold onto that right to be silent like a lifeboat.

I've never understood why this position exists. Call me unhelpful, but I don't see why anyone, guilty or innocent, ever consents to an interview. Why would having your lawyer present suddenly make it acceptable? I especially don't understand why anyone who is innocent would have a bar of these shenanigans. If I were held on suspicion of a crime, I'd be too angry about the time I'd never get back, to even speak calmly with my lawyer in private.

Yep. "I would like an attorney, please & thank you. I would also like a coffee."

@Aaron Hernandez you dont understand much of anything do you?

@Aaron Hernandez you dont understand much of anything do you?

@HillbillyHell you never know who might see it and it save an innocent persons life. Never speak without an attorney present. Invoke your 5th amendment if in US and also make sure to verbalize wanting an attorney present before speaking w police or answering any questions.

This is why if completely innocent you still don't speak to police: https://youtu.be/d-7o9xYp7eE?t=1346

@iBot no, even if your intentions are true, the detectives can always twist your words and make you answer a question just to prove you are guilty, that’s what the job entails, to find the suspect. One wrong word and you look bad. But some word of advice, the only words you should speak of if ever interrogated is “I don’t know” and “I’d like to speak to a lawyer”

@AngelEyes who was? This comment thread is too long now so I'm not sure who you're referring to.

@iBot most people don't care if they got the job done properly, i.e. the guilty party. They're more concerned with getting the job done, a conviction. Police are not on the side of the citizen

My dad should just teach you to never do bad things. if you dont do no wrong, you dont have to lie.

@Gentle Khajiit I do believe they were being sarcastic.

@Gentle Khajiit I do believe they were being sarcastic.

@genki2genki people get arrested and are suspected even when they havent commited a crime. Often times simple wording mistakes in wording and coincidence are all police have to go on and they manage to falsely imprison people for it.

Same to car insurance told me do not admit anything to police or the other driver that u r right or wrong until insurance claim guy arrives.

And just so there's no question, affirmatively invoke your right to remain silent and request a lawyer.

he could just wait for a lawyer and lie saying that she left his house after having sex

@Deadsy Padilla:  An innocent person should say so. Silence sometimes is not golden. A roll in the hay with a gay in a park in front of the sun's ray -- is minor and should keep this <b>away</b> from his lawyer and family: Naughty: Nasty. Better to be a teef and reap the consequences rather than the shame and disease levied on the ones he loves.

@AtticusDragon You're missing my point completely.

@AtticusDragon You're missing my point completely.

A neutral witness has every reason to lawyer up, that's the point. By your own logic, if most guilty parties avoid counsel to appear innocent, wouldn't an innocent person behave opposite?

The assertion you made that seeking counsel arouses suspicion is moot; suspicion doesn't gather evidence, warrants do. No judge would sign a warrant based on the suspicion caused by a suspect exercising their rights. It is simply not legal to use this against a suspect. One of the Rittenhouse prosecutors tried to lean into this; the judge cleared the room and absolutely lambasted the prosecution.

@AtticusDragon But if the "suspect" is pretending to just be a "witness" then it does look weirdly suspicious if they want a lawyer. I think thats the distinction here. Most of these idiots are trying to pretend they had nothing to do with the disappearance/murder of someone, so they act helpful. A truly neutral witness has no reason to protect themselves when aiding an investigation. Thats why they don't lawyer up.

"Can and will be used against you..."

Not for you. Nothing you say or do can contribute to a plea of innocence, they are there to collect evidence against you, period. Compliance during interview has never, ever, ever been a pertinent factor in determining innocence; in fact it is very illegal to use 'obtaining counsel' against a suspect.

Always seek counsel.

I could go on and on about this case, but basically: have self-control and if someone slaps you, walk away. Men have more strength and bone density than women. Fathers usually tell you don't ever put your hands on a woman and Don't talk to police without a good defence lawyer, even if you are innocent.  Also cameras are everywhere.

Ikr they even tell you that and people still talk.

Ikr they even tell you that and people still talk.

@Putin's BFF In their mind if they don't cooperate, or lawyer up, it looks more suspicious. To be fair there is some truth to that. If you're a witness to a murder, and in no way guilty, you'd have very little reason to lawyer up when giving police your testimony.

@yakheen THIS is the reason why you think the justice system is a failure?

@genki2genki what’s more fucking nuts is that cops have been able to mentally exhaust someone to the point of confessing to crimes they never actually committed

People figure that they'll play nice and appear co-operative. I don't understand why they do it, especially if they're guilty. Just shut up already.

This is exactly what you do. There could be a murder on the other side of the country and you never even left your home that week and still you should say nothing if you get called in for an interview.

My dad's an accountant and he taught me that you have to pay your taxes no matter what.

@genki2genki your ignorance is showing. innocent ppl come in for questioning all the time. Ask for your lawyer no matter what.

@genki2genki what about the people falsely accused? <br>I agree - people shouldn’t commit crimes. But there is a video on this channel about people being falsely accused and they have ended up in prison. It is really sad.

@HillbillyHell“I want to speak with my lawyer” when you’re being questioned is what every lawyer will tell you to do.

@HillbillyHell the authorities won’t say this, they want people to talk.
It’s just good practice to get some legal advice first so you know your rights whether innocent or guilty.
I’ve been falsely accused of a crime before and getting that legal advice prior to anything to ensure I was prepared and knowledgeable of the process was just invaluable.

Wow, really?  I've never read that before on interrogation video.

Wow, really?  I've never read that before on interrogation video.

This is 100% accurate. It doesn’t matter if one is guilty or innocent. Always always get legal advice before speaking about anything.


it's great how when they're "setting up" for the interview, they have the female detective just sitting silently on her phone. zero attempt at interaction at all. kind of a mutt and jeff thing, really, but instead of antagonism it's just pure apathy. since the perp is so social and extroverted (and successful with women) this likely put him immediately on the back foot. to a guy used to getting the attention of pretty women, a pretty woman who's completely ignoring him is probably something he's not used to. just a brilliant setup. so nuanced.

@No No "Why do you assume they knew he’s a ladies man?"

because he's knocking down the door of 30 and banging a hot 20 year old. if you don't think experienced city homicide detectives (not just beat cops, as some here have mistakenly assumed) can read guys like lee as if he were a fucking book, you don't understand the first thing about anything. this was not day 1 of the investigation and they had already interviewed everyone in savannah's life. they knew a lot about lee rodarte, and they had the ability to play off what they knew about him.

"Do you assume that every woman he comes across is interested in him?"

what i assume has nothing to do with it. what's important is that HE assumes that he's able to charm women as he pleases. you might not have the life experience to have been around guys like that. i have. you might not be an astute enough observer to grok the way they move about the world, that uniquely confident power they actually do wield in daily life. charisma is the cheat code to modern life. guys with charisma get a lot of women. they get used to it. the human brain, when it gets used to something, it expects more. was the female detective's apathy towards lee "the key" that cracked the case? no, don't be fucking ridiculous. but was it one AMONG MANY elements in this set-up that together threw him sufficiently off-balance to extract a confession? abso-fucking-lutely.

"You people are really simple"

not everyone is as simple as YOU are.

that’s so silly, dude is being interrogated about the girl he legit just murdered and the one thing that’s gonna scare him is the 40-something female detective not paying attention to him cus he’s such a ladies-man, what?

@Nathaniel Jacobson I dont think its brutal at all.  Hes in an interrogation room with her; clearly they’re “enemies”.

@Nathaniel Jacobson I dont think its brutal at all.  Hes in an interrogation room with her; clearly they’re “enemies”.

Yea the only reason they were alone was because he said yes to the water. If he said no they would have went right along with the interrogation. In hindsight he probably wanted the water because of the adderall. I’ve taken my fair share lol

@No No No they do stuff like this on purpose. It makes sense to assume it would make him feel insecure. My friend who's a ladies man is really insecure if a female doesn't fully aknowledge him. The only other ploy would be to get a young, shredded pretty boy detective cause they hate that too.

@Mary O I got a tip from an older lady because she thought my hair was beautiful. Being attractive to someone still feels nice even if it's a gay guy. <br>Also 40 can still be hot and I'm only 23.

@Mary O I got a tip from an older lady because she thought my hair was beautiful. Being attractive to someone still feels nice even if it's a gay guy.

@KingOsiris You wrote an entire book that nobody is ever going to read. What this all boils down to is you goalposting and ignoring the original comment that is nothing but a major reach and a nonsensical statement that has 0 substance or evidence. Even JCS doesn't mention it in the video for a reason. Thats because there is nothing to the placement of the female interrogator, which by the was worse of the two in the interrogation and used emotional breakdown as a tactic. Any smart person in that kind of position would never fall for those cringey tactics or care for that, but obviously criminals aren't the smartest people just like yourself. Also its still hilarious that you think this guy cared about whoever was in front of him just after he murdered someone and the possibility of going to prison became very real now.

@MisterUntamed Nah, if in the face of an opposing view, the first angle you take is ad hominem directed at a person's intellect, rather than factually breaking down the argument point by point, it says alot more about your intelligence than mine. Immature kids do that, or adult babies. You don't need me to explain why... You talk of goal posting yet you provide no counter argument beyond "(paraphrase)you're reaching, nothing he or she did communicates that she was silently shutting down advances of a provocative nature". Where as I'm explaining that the core point of the initial comment above is that she was deliberately attempting to shatter his ego based on the psychological profile they constructed around him before entering the room. Based on what the narrator said in the video, there is reason to assume a probability that he's used to being in complete control of conversations with the opposite sex. Even possibly contributing to the aggravating factors surrounding Savannah's killing. Now, try like a grown up to provide a contrary view without resorting to "no thats reaching, u big dum dum". You don't owe that to me or any internet stranger for that matter, but I'd like to think you're well versed and intelligent enough to argue why you think that's a complete reach.

@No No I think you're over thinking this. I don't think that the comment about not giving Lee any attention was of a "cougar vs young man" dynamic. The narrator in the video explained that Lee's profile is that of a young bachelor who is a successful chef and very popular at his job, a ladies man party boy. It's evident that the investigators could deduce from this that he'd likely be an open book who'd talk himself into a hole of half truths. By appearing disinterested, the female investigator was letting her partner lead with open ended questions. Goal being to appeal on his egocentric fabrications, all while making him uneasy about whether the detectives even give a shit about his story. It was definitely intentional.

@KingOsiris Because there is 0 indication or mentioning that this guy is interested in someone 20 years older, let alone in a f*<b>***</b> interrogation room of all the places. Obviously that is the last thing on his mind in that situation. Like use your brain my dude. Just a reach without any substance.

@KingOsiris Because there is 0 indication or mentioning that this guy is interested in someone 20 years older, let alone in a f****** interrogation room of all the places. Obviously that is the last thing on his mind in that situation. Like use your brain my dude. Just a reach without any substance.

@MisterUntamed this whole channel is a case study on criminal psychology techniques used to fuck with people's heads. Why don't you think that it's even remotely plausible that she was attempting to play on his charm and ego, appealing to his sense of morality? You dont think that Lee's psychological profile matches that of someone who thinks he could charm his way out of an interrogation?

@No No He is guessing why she is there just on her phone and makes him nervous so yes there is good reason the detective is doing this so it's not a accident that the detective is on her phone

@DubsTV again well it's actually about control and power so if he did kill the women he was in a relationship with he feels power over them and don't view them as better than him so relationship is not about if the women detective wants him it's a power play and men who are predator are over confident especially over women they view as weak but the women detective is in more of a powerful role and at that moment the boss calling the shots even if it appears she is just a women and you see his view of the girlfriend he kept saying her faults

Why do you assume they knew he’s a ladies man? If he is, then why would he care if a lady cop ignores him? Do you assume that every woman he comes across is interested in him? Such a dumb assumption and then there’s people replying like it’s insightful. You people are really simple

@Sparrow Southwell I think you @'ed the wrong person. I didn't say anything about detectives equalling cops, or her age, or mention her being on her phone. Did you really need to send me an essay?

@Katie Graham she used tears because she’s appealing to his humanity. Remember his mom’s past addiction.

Also.. She was actually the one who illicited his partial confession at approximately 51 minutes in the interview... So....... ?????????

@Supreme Hare Do you realize that some people actually use their cellphones as apart of their job? Also, not sure if you are aware, but detectives =/= cops. Totally different set of duties, roles, responsibilities.

Also, what does the generation that someone is from have anything to do wuth the interrogation of the suspect of a violent crime? No bearing on this whatsoever.

Furthermore, you cannot see the woman's age in the limited footage we have of her, so for all you know she could be part of the lost generation, or a boomer like yourself.

In addition to this point-- everything done in an interview room is staged and set like a play. They have a plan of attack when they go in, based on the behavior and profiling of the suspect. Nobody that doesnt need to be there is in that room.

I tend to believe that people who do this for a profession.. Know what their doing when they set up a room like this. These arent cashiers at Kroger's, Karen. These are highly trained professionals.

Why do you feel as though you have such a superior position from your couch to tell this detective she added nothing.

Rapport building is typically used with subjects who hold themselves in high regard, and are seen as upstanding members of the community. It makes them feel more comfortable, which makes the shift from a question to an accusation much more uncomfortable when that time comes. Somebody like himself-- a line chef and lower manager at a corporate resturant-- isnt going to need that.

Silence is often one of the most effective questions.

Since we all know you have a degree in criminal psychology and gender-social constructs-- Thank you for giving us this amazing education 🔥😍🔥. We all appreciate the time you wasted being such a misogonist on YouTube lol

When I see traffic cops on the road today, they got their cell phone in their hand, and are often looking at it.    I wouldn't give the cop to much credit for looking at her cell phone, more likely she's like many other milleniels very little social skills and not good at initiating things without a computer prompt, she could be using the time to establish rapport, and more than likely she just wants the man to take the lead, while she's writing complaints about unequal pay.

@Karol D she didn't add anything to this interrogation.

@That Part <br>Her crying would have only increased his anxiety. Even if he didn't have any empathy for her, her daughter or his victim, he was already clearly anxious and having a crying woman in a small room with him would have given them the tactical advantage because it keeps him emotionally overwhelmed.

@Katie Graham - that's why I said, "What do I know? I'm not a guy." Men are visual. Maybe age doesn't matter if women take care of themselves. Maybe each guy is different. I'm attracted to younger men. When I was in my 20's, I found 30-something guys creepy... because of their age alone.

@Mary O he’s like 30… he could find a woman old enough to have a 21 year old attractive. She was probably lying anyway

@Mary O he’s like 30… he could find a woman old enough to have a 21 year old attractive. She was probably lying anyway

@The Alpha the whole channel is literally about closely analyzing interrogation methods, I don’t think it makes sense to complain someone is doing so

I don’t like how the lady detective was dam near crying. Like bro you think he has enough mental stamina to even try and understand where you are coming from. He’s trying to dodge questions. The dude was on his ass. Then she steady bringing up the camera. Man I almost was convinced the camera must wasn’t to good if you keep bringing it up lmao

@Nathaniel Jacobson I thought that the detective ignoring him would be brutal & though Lee didn’t seem ta care, he is hard ta read. When the detective had ta ask her first question, she wasn’t rude so she could’ve been the good cop (or not). Secondly the narrator said "from what detectives could gather" Lee was popular. In reality, he’s aloof.

@Mary O even if he wouldn’t want to hit on her, being completely alone with her in a tense situation, knowing she’s looking to interrogate you, and her pretending you don’t exist is brutal

Does he really care, though? She said she has a 21 yr-old daughter. That would make her most likely over 40. Then again, maybe he does think all women want him. But what do I know? I'm not a guy.

Wow good observation/interpretation of that scenario!

Wow good observation/interpretation of that scenario!


The female officer was really manipulative and persuasive.

Well done!

@Tim Anderson she forced a confession from a guilty man. How you came to your conclusion is beyond me.

Nah she was emotional and shit if she was working by herself she wouldn't have any information from him i think because of her he started to push on him

To Yeshua Sage: Have one for each <b>open and shut</b> case like this. To hell, if this will work on the innocent or framed. They would know better and would just evoke sagacious irritation.

@Princeofcups Poc They’re not sociopaths at all. A lot of these detectives end up retiring after gruesome cases because of how mentally tolling it is on them

@Tony Fkn B <br>Not really. Because regardless of the evidence they have, they still want the confession.

@David - Agree bro these guys sound ridiculous.

@David - Agree bro these guys sound ridiculous.

@David - it's got nothing to do with movies. Interrogators don't go into an interrogation without a strategy.... that's literally their job. No one's dumping everyone agrees she's annoying but it worked.

@Brian right. They knew his weaknesses. My guess is the asked around the restaurant and keyed in on what kind of a dude he was and used it against him.

@Gene Buchanan yea and she was probably attractive too which has an affect as well

@Vic Construction you know they plan those out before hand right? That most likely was a calculated move on their part for her to act like that.

I disagree. I found her annoying, emotional and over the top "obviously" manipulative. As a 40yr old, who has been around the block.
This would be a massive Red Flag for me.

Plus......

NEVER EVER EVER..... Talk to any law enforcement without a lawyer. Under any circumstances. No if's but's or maybe's.

women... amirite! theyre very talented. lol

women... amirite! theyre very talented. lol

@Fwomp also you/that YouTuber  are arguing claims the prosecution and defense deny neither side said he had no fentanyl/ meth in his system, stop making up facts

@barnabyssjones I gave an example of reasonable doubt, if that’s “coping” I guess whatever you say I bet you still talking about trump right?

@David - ah yes, because that evidence would meet the standard of "beyond a reasonable doubt" required for a criminal conviction.

@R Nickerson i did watch the whole thing. did you? he ended up confessing because of the amounting evidence against him...... not because of the lady begging and crying for a confession like you people keep saying. so, please tell me the time stamp of the point where the lady begging and crying "worked" ???????? from what i saw, every time the lady begged and cried, the guy said absolutely nothing?

@sunnycoast4558 <br>You didn't watch the whole thing?

@sunnycoast4558
You didn't watch the whole thing?

@R Nickerson how did it work? tell me the timestamp in this video where her begging and crying made him confess?

@Tim Anderson <br>But it worked, keyboard warrior

@Tim Anderson

@Patrick Ross It wasn't tho. She could not stay on point when speaking. If you watch back you might see what im seeing.

@Doet Er Niet Toe

She was too emotionol... This was no good "performance".

@Princeofcups Poc <br>If someone's innocent, they most likely wouldn't get to the point of using such aggressive manipulation tactics. It's rather apparent that they only go this far if they're at least near certain that the person they're questioning is guilty.

lmao all she did was cry and beg? a child could do better

lmao all she did was cry and beg? a child could do better

for real. she didn’t say much but she got the job done.

for real. she didn’t say much but she got the job done.

@yeshua sage yep and then they say “he showed his guilt by answering the questions aggressively” just plead the 5th, also the woman almost ruined the case and would’ve if the man was an actual sociopath and didn’t show enough empathy to admit to it

@Princeofcups Poc i assume anyone who is innocent would be alot more aggressive and visibly annoyed than the guilty.

Better to have the sociopath on the side of the law than the alternative.  At least that's the feeling until you are dragged in for a crime you did not commit, and they use the same tactics on you.  Oh, that doesn't happen?  For every tape released I guarantee there are 10 that they do NOT want to have to release.  Using those tactics to break down innocent people is disgusting and painful to watch.


The horror of hearing his own internal dialogue, he feels only remorse for the fact he was caught. Her life is meaningless to him, he only feels bad for himself.

@Fred For me, that part when he said 'Fuck Savannah', and it was so aggressive, told me a lot, and I was really surprised Jim didn't pause it there. I genuinely believe that was the turning point, where he realised he needed to watch what he said because he was being recorded, and went a 180 and the rest was a mix of acting and real emotions. That moment showed that rage is deep inside and even killing her didn't release it.  "fuck savannah' to 'sorry savannah'. The first was real, the second bullshit. I'm right cos i'm always right about this kind of suff. :-)

@U P Yeah especially the "Fuck Savannah" part, right? Maybe next time instead of"what you feel like" is happening can be changed to "what you THINK" happened.

I keep reading some of these comments in Jim's voice

@marcolammers I'm not certain he's actually a murderer. Not even certain he's a killer. What I suspect is that he is familiar with the rapport of an abuser and didn't mind playing the part. I suspect that he doesn't mind fighting <b>and will</b> fight girls if they attack him with little regard for how much damage he might do unless he's very certain it will kill them. So, maybe he attacked her and it did so much damage she died. I don't think he meant for her to die, but he obviously didn't want anyone to find out as you can see per his breakdown.

It honestly just feels like he was talking out loud because he knew he was being recorded. He wanted people to think he’s still a good person

It was pretty chilling when he was getting angry at her for getting him in trouble when he fucking killed her. What a creep.

funknotik I’m not entirely sure about that. He seems surprised, shocked, remorseful, disappointed and angry that a thing like this could happen.

It’s logical that these emotions are directed towards himself, because she died in his hands.

Being sorry for her and being angry to himself are in a way two sides of the same medal. It appears he never planned to kill her but it happened nevertheless, and ever since he must have scrambled to make sense out what happened, rewinding the events in his head and wishing he could change the course of events. In that process, it makes more sense that the emotions are directed towards himself - the person who had the power to change the situation, who could and should have acted differently - and not towards the victim. You even see he briefly directs his anger and disappointment towards her in his rambling (exploring how things could have turned out if she acted differently), but soon corrected himself and redirected his anger and disappointment back towards himself.

Jim seems to interpret this as remorse for admitting, but to me it clearly seems remorse for getting in this situation in the first place. It must be a shock to find yourself in the position of being guilty of manslaughter. He didn’t have a life that gradually led up to this point, it’s an event that is completely alien, probably completely the opposite of anything he ever pictured living, and it’s completely self-inflicted.


Lee cries in despair "I'm going to die in jail!" All these murderers were so cruel to their victims, taking away their lives, yet feel so sorry for themselves going to jail - alive. Narcissists

I dont think he meant to kill her, probably got so upset when she wouldnt retract her claims of their relationship and panicked he would lose his job and went into a fit of rage. It's not super hard to snap someones neck, he could have snapped it then panicked. I dont know though. I'm not defending him but I'm pretty sure most people have been in a situation at least once in their life where they snapped from anger. Although most of us can control that anger and wouldnt strangle someone else.

I got a 23 year old daughter , and if anybody ever harmed her , they are not going to jail, i am

Typical of violent little machos, capable to kill women but cry when have to face the consequences, hope he rots in jail.

Evelyne Loiterstein to be fair it’s more of a human emotion not just to criminals. You could be mother Theresa and you’ll cry for loosing your freedom

i don't mind your sentiment, but it makes me wonder, if killing is so despicable, why do we glorify military? aren't they just a bunch of murderers in uniform, if you think about it.

@fifty years I train in jiu jitsu so I've been choked a lot, and I can confirm that it's a very personal thing. In order to actually kill somebody with strangulation you have to hold on to the choke for 2 minutes to completely kill off the brain. The fact that somebody could do that to somebody for that long is pretty terrifying

This dosn't happen all at one time with one incident, this is a buildup through life with the wrong way of thinking... He would have carried that for a long time and of course whenever he had a problem to solve with someone it could be the solution again....

@MissMarvel , thinking the same thing. He digressed in the very next statement, though. They were clearly arguing about stuff and he would likely lose his job. He correctly stated he should have walked away from the convo but he gave into a fit of rage. I believe he really did choke her to death in that car out of rage.

You hear about these player types. He played, she got attached, he rejected her and was rude about it, and she obviously reacted negatively. Most situations, the drama cools down and people move on with their lives. But he would rather resort to violence to keep his job than admit he messed up at work.

MissMarvel no humanity.  Just knows what to say to invoke sympathy for HIMSELF

@giuseppe nero I support the death penalty just to be rid of them for good.

I was pleased to hear him apologize to Savannah, say she was a nice person, etc. There's some shred of humanity in this garbage bucket.

You noticed that too😏Probably cheers the children being taken at the border!But he can break a womans neck,cause he was trying to make something of himself.Lord help me!

Ikr like why do they think that people should have mercy on them when they literally killed someone🙄

I think life in prison is punishment in comparison to the death penalty


Am I the only one who feels zero empathy for him? He’s not crying because he killed her, his crying because he got caught. At the end of the day he is selfish man who killed a girl for the sake of keeping a job at a grill.

He is crying because he is realising what is coming next - not being free person. But this is a small price to pay for a whole life taken.

This reminds me of that girl who killed the other girl because the victim knew she stole a pair of shoes at her work and she wanted to keep her job.

I don't think it was just the grill,  Chelsea little evil witch had a lot more to do with this crap. She went to his house that evening and after he confessed n was alone he said " fng Chelsea fng Chelsea

It might be an accident snapping neck happens during fight.

@Immadiveint Bruh I was trying to rely to someone else, plus we were on the same page about it so no I didn’t get owned

@Anti Human he wasn't crying because he was remorseful he literally said I'm going to jail this is horrible then started crying

@WittyUsernamehere Sorry I didn’t mean to reply to you

@WittyUsernamehere Sorry I didn’t mean to reply to you

At bonefish grill though, best fish in town, no lies.

Also yea how tf I’m supposed to empathize I ain’t a killer

Also yea how tf I’m supposed to empathize I ain’t a killer

Nah he’s sad about both man he even apologizes to her (yes I know she’s dead but he still says he’s sorry)

@Riann I wish I understood why you replied to me even though we're pretty much on the same page but that's okay, you can do that if you want.

To me he’s crying because he got caught and doesn’t want to spend the rest of his life in jail.

Yes, I would agree. If you re-read my comment, I did say that.

Nobody would want that and godammit I would cry too but that still doesn’t help his case.

Whether it helps his case or not is irrelevant. He's in jail for 40 years and that's all there is to it.

This dude has absolutely 0 remorse for Savannah cause if he did he would’ve confessed and not have lied.

I disagree. He does apologize to Savannah at the end indicating that he does feel some remorse for it. Also, the prospect of ending up in jail probably isn't thrilling him (nor would it me or you, as you mentioned before) and so therefore is trying to come up with stories, rationalizations and justifications so that he does not end up in jail. In the past, have you ever been caught doing something that you shouldn't have? If so, was your immediate reflex to confess to it right then and there or did you try to feign innocence? When faced with the prospect of life in jail, wouldn't you try to get out of that if possible?

He also said he was not guilty and continued to lie and say it was self defense.

It would not be the first time such a scenario occured in a similar situation. He's not a good guy and he killed someone. I think it's rather naive of anyone to expect he'd suddenly become a model citizen and be honest with himself and everyone around.

So yeah no he has absolutely 0 sympathy from me.

Once again, I don't know why you're wasting your time telling me this, I 100% agree with you on that one.

@Riann I wish I understood why you replied to me even though we're pretty much on the same page but that's okay, you can do that if you want.

I don't feel sympathy for him either but I do think he's crying because he feels guilty. When the detectives leave, he does cry out and apologize to Savannah. So, as others have mentioned, I think it's both, he's remorseful and does not want to go to jail.

@Riann You can clearly see that he regrets everything.
Murderer, not a murderer, guilty, not guilty, evil, or not evil.
These are just words, claims, kind of prefabricated ideas of how to feel about a person,
but his remorse is real.
He seems like a fellow man that has happened to follow his insticts in the wrong situations.
That's what I see, and thats why I cried.

@Emil Sahlin Why would you have sympathy for a murderer? You got some issues…

@Emil Sahlin Why would you have sympathy for a murderer? You got some issues…

I have empathy for him.. I even cried when I saw him react the way he did afterwards.
You guys are looking way too much from the eyes of law and society morals than actual human suffering in my opinion.

It reminds me of the story about the angry man spitting in Buddhas face.

@ Lucas you are correct. I meant  I sympathy , got my words mixed up.

@ Lucas you are correct. I meant  I sympathy , got my words mixed up.

@JT You’re really victim blaming when this dude is probably half her size? There is no way she could’ve put up a fight for him to accidentally kill her. Besides the video tape shows a struggle where the door swings 3 times, whether or not she initiated it things ended up wrong on his end and he went too far. It’s really disgusting how you could go as far as to say the victim in this situation would do something like that.

Ultimately the detectives were able to reach his good nature and he confessed. Psychopaths and Sociopaths don't ever confess - they will go on endlessly with their lies no matter how much evidence is against them. Lee Rodarte obviously felt remorse in this video, not just for actually confessing and realizing that his life is more or less ruined, but also for killing her. But with that said, I was disappointed that he ultimately plead not-guilty and tried to come up with a BS self-defense narrative. I am a strong believer in life for life justice, if you take a life without a justifiable cause you forfeit your own. But I also believe that surviving victims should have some say as to the punishment - it shouldn't be solely up to a judge or jury. Some murders are reprehensible: showing no remorse for their crimes, lying and deceiving others until they die naturally in their cell. Others own up to their mistakes, express true remorse, plead guilty, and take responsibility for their actions. If the surviving victims can show forbearance and mercy to this kind of person and support a non-death sentence, or even support a fairly light prison sentence, I think that should be allowed.

You are not alone. He murdered that girl. Why should anyone feel sorry for him?

I think you mean sympathy, not empathy. Empathy is something one feels being in or putting oneself in the place of another, sympathy is something one feels for another's separate state of being. Unless you think everyone else had killed someone or imagines having done so. Also, I don't think anyone feels anything but disgust for him.

he is crying because he realized he made a grave mistake which may of only been bc he got caught but he definitely feels some kind of remorse, but it doesn't mean he shouldnt pay for his crimes

@CorrugatedLadder Exactly, he must’ve just be out of his mind or mentally sick

@CorrugatedLadder Exactly, he must’ve just be out of his mind or mentally sick

@dawid he should have just stopped seeing her and looked for a different job

@dawid he should have just stopped seeing her and looked for a different job

@Melissa Mahoney Dude must have been high as hell to think that was the only option.

@dawid A fit of rage aided by drugs? A drsire to murder? What was it.

@dawid A fit of rage aided by drugs? A drsire to murder? What was it.

@dawid Drugs? A desire to kill? Unless its in self defense, I cant fathom how murdering someone, burning their body and dumping them is something any sane person can resort to, much less think of.

I don’t think anyone here has any sympathy for him.

I don’t think anyone here has any sympathy for him.

He is crying because his life is over....he felt he was going places and now he is not....he actually had a decent life.....mgr/chef etc.....oh well....

You’re not the only one. I feel the need to mention what he did to her body after he killed her. He went to great lengths to hide her body. So let’s say he did kill her bc he felt backed into a corner. Like he thought he was going to loose his job and she egged him on more about it when she was in the car. Well then he kills her and tries to cover it up instead of calling to get her medical attention or calling the police. Let’s not forget he sent text messages to her parents and brother trying to make them believe she had run away with a boyfriend. It’s all so extreme. He might have some remorse when it hit him that this was the most extreme option and the dumbest one. There’s no justifying this solution to his problem. So I think he is mostly upset at realizing how stupid he was to decide to kill her AND try to cover it up. He realizes he has not future anymore and for what ?  He realizes it’s not a good enough reason to loose everything. He doesn’t really seem to stop and say things like “I took her life and her future away.” He says things about how he can’t ever wear his chef’s coat again and how he won’t be making anything out of himself. It’s 99% about him and I’ll give him that last 1% for her.and that’s me being generous…

@JT she tried to get out of the car 3 times! he knew what he was doing, it wasn't an accident and I don't think it's nice to be victim blaming by saying she might have initiated it! They were talking through the window for 14 minutes and then it seems like he convinced her to get in the back seat and not long after the car was shaking and the door violently opened 3 times. He didn't want people knowing about their affair, it definitely seems like he planned this or already had thoughts of harming her.

I’m surprised no one is entertaining the idea that lee probably didn’t intend to kill savannah in that backseat, but rather reacted to a scuffle that resulted in a bad ending, due to him being way stronger than her and her putting up a good fight. Basically, if there was a physical altercation, initiated by her or not, he should have gotten out of that car. You can snap the human neck like a twig within seconds if the right pressure is applied

He is only crying because he got caught, he has zero remorse. you hear him say "fucking Savanna" aggressively which shows he is blaming her for what he did. a few minutes later you hear him say sorry savanna but i think its because he realised the cameras where there. he is evil and I have no empathy for a psycho like that.

31:48 is where he admits she didn't get out the car.

31:48 is where he admits she didn't get out the car.

i dunno. i think after getting past the frustration of being caught, releasing that tension of withholding information and having time to think about it and all he was remorseful of killing her, just not as much as he could have been

He could have just broken up with her lmfao

He could have just broken up with her lmfao

He deserves the life sentence. He feels no remorse whatsoever for what he did. I would completely understand if he was just angry about it, most people would, but killing a person is absolutely heinous. I never feel empathy for monsters, and I am the type of person that's incensed when they see a kitten or puppy being treated poorly.

@Darie Gheorghe i don’t know, either way, i have no empathy for the man and i don’t understand him in the slightest

@dawid oh, I thought all he said was lies. I though she put a stop to the relationship and he wanted to continue.

@Darie Gheorghe they already had a relationship outside of work so that wouldn’t make much sense. them having a relationship was breaking the rules so i’m guessing he wanted to stop having that relationship.

Its both. He was crying because he was remorseful and the jail sentence.

Its both. He was crying because he was remorseful and the jail sentence.

Empathy implies i can put myself in his shoes. Ive never seen a dead person let alone killed someone so i cant empathize with him. Do i have some level of understanding his situation and those kind of thoughts? Sure. Life gets outta hand and thoughts can run wild. To act on those kind of thoughts tho takes a different kind of person

It makes no sense as to why he would think the best option is to kill someone, and even more absurdly, to keep his job. He killed someone’s daughter for something that could’ve been resolved so easily, it is disgusting. I feel no sympathy for him.


As someone with ADHD I would seem guilty 100% of the time if interrogated. I over explain everything.

I do the same shit. I just want to set the record so much straight that I eventually end up explaining string theory when asked what's the weather outside. I'd be sent to jail after five minutes of being innocent.

Me too. In highschool English class we were told to start a short story. Most kids put down 3 or 4 sentences. I had half a page because I described everything in vivid detail. My teacher actually pulled me aside and told me I needed to learn to get to the point, that she requested a short story not a novel. I stopped going to class the next day lmao. I was so butthurt.

@So I says to the guy, I says to him, I says, ugh me toooo. It sucks!

lmao. as someone with social anxiety, i'd be scared that they'd think i'm guilty if i appear nervous, which would only make me appear more nervous.

bulldoggamer 🤣 I don’t even have It and I over explain things, Lol!

bulldoggamer Seriously though, I hope he has a nice time in prison. What a prick.

@Anders Anderson well let's say my alibi was that I went over to my friend Mike's house. I would probably go into details about who mike is, how we met, what he does for a living, a funny story about us.

Omg bro I would like give away my entire history

I don't have ADHD but I over explain everything.

@MeJane oh the contrary..If she did, she would be better informed and her whole fictionalized story wld sound more plausible

@Sunday Mourning  lol. You watch way too much tv.

Speaking of being found guilty and whatnot - if you ever find yourself in a situation and they want you to take a lie detector test, DONT DO IT!!! There was this insane guy some yrs back who would NOT leave me alone, and even though I told him I had zero interest in him, he claimed I was cheating on him when I wd hang out w/ other ppl, etc etc (even though we weren't together, he claimed that since he liked me, I was more or less automatically his).. anyway, I made a deal w him. I wd take a lie detector test and when it came out that I was being truthful abt everything (there were a lot of CRAZY accusations), he wd HV to go away and never speak to me again. He agreed. The old man who gave me the test was asking me questions abt whether or not I'd been with other guys, and I had been with one (my ex-bf who I wanted back) but since I wasn't dating anyone, it wasn't cheating. You can't give details though, you can only say yes or no. No matter what, "yes" or "no". And he asked me all these questions abt sex, which I am timid speaking abt w/ strangers (especially old man) so I was really nervous and uncomfortable (it didn't help that I was hooked up w/ a bunch of wires all over me). Anyway, results came back that I was lying, when I was 100% honest!! I will NEVER trust a lie detector test again, and I recommend none of you do either! If you're uncomfortable, nervous, embarrassed, anything like that, your heart rate increases and you'll get false results! They do NOT detect lies! I watched an episode of 'Adam Ruins Everything" on lie detector tests that explains why they shdnt be trusted far better than I cd!!! Highly recommend the episode, I highly do NOT  recommend lie detector tests, lol!

Just wanted to say I love your avatar picture Bulldoggamer.

It doesn't matter how you behave, if at the same time there's no good evidence it was you.

bulldoggamer my daughter does that by the time she gets to the point I’ve lost interest I’m working on being more accepting of this but sometimes it’s hard

@Eternal Reign I don't. I have a disability the limits my inhibition. Especially in anxious situations like an interrogation. So I would go into weird details like the fact I have to get extra wide shoes now since most shoe companies are making their shoes more and more narrow as the years go on

Sounds more like you have a guilty conscience.

Facts I head that and was like uh man cops assume all most non NT reactions are guilty, these vids alway say something that I’d be fucked lol

I do that too but I don’t think I have ADHD, just socially awkward and nervous anxiety.
