@Kamikazi Tsunami buddy, I dont think most people go into the military for the pay, my brother gets paid 30,000 a year.

yes. And they rise to high rank positions.

yes. And they rise to high rank positions.

@cookie_dough_hangover its bad because the way their trained will have some effect on them. I always felt bad because my ex would say bs excuse he has PTSD like they get away if they state that. He told me on a deployment he found woman and children hanging etc I found out it was all LIES by his mates. Just think one day when they leave their Karma always comes because they will be so F%#%ed up in their own mental shit storm.

I live in Cyprus, recently there was a case of first serial killer in Cyprus. He raped and killed several women and a child from Philippines. He was in military. I have also heard that men who are in military are abusive towards their wives and children. My friend is actually going through it right now.

My ex is military and he is one of THEM that falls under the radar always. He breached orders 7 times and should of been charged but the police called his work instead of me and funny enough ALL solid evidence was deemed "not efficient enough" to charge because I heard they said he will lose his job if a intervention order or charge goes ahead. 3yrs later he is still crazy and gets away with all and what he does even to my kids. He is a severe narc but the way I react is ruffling him slowly. Its so messed up no matter what country not all 'military' personnel are 'good' people and thats why they're there because some are the best master manipulators.

and in civilian government, giving them the orders

and in civilian government, giving them the orders

Gabriel Martínez also, i think that they would be great for these types of jobs because rhey can distance themselves from someone else’s pain. Most of those jobs are not made for empaths yknow

Gabriel Martínez They can’t feel them, but have a vague understanding of other’s. Take it as, someone loving a style of music that you sinply don’t understand. I have a friend who has been diagnosed with sociopathic tendencies, he’s not an asshole or dangerous. He simply does not feel sadness or remorse. I have to tell him sometimes why he’s hurt someone and he understands, like you would understand someone having a passion that’s not yours. Sociopaths are not the dangerous ones (except for more extreme cases, obviously) Psychopaths are who we should keep away from. sorry if I wasn’t clear.

@mucky Wait what? Are you seriously implying that an individual who can't experience emotions, can't understand them and can only imitate them could work as someone whose job is UNDERSTANDING PEOPLE'S EMOTIONS AND FEARS IN HIGH-RISK SITUATIONS? Are you high???

@Mr. Joesterr 1/200 people on earth exhibit psychopathic traits (of which there are 7). Some of the most successful & or influential people in the world are psychopathic including many in Government, CEO's, Banking, Law etc - there are psychopaths in the military / police & even in normal society. Saying they contribute nothing to society is both dismissive & inaccurate & shows your own lack of knowledge on the subject at hand.

Diego Maradonna so take them all to your house please so we can be in peace ✌🏿

@Diego Maradonna What, how can you say that, omg

@Diego Maradonna What, how can you say that, omg

@Diego Maradonna I know people are going to freak out over your statement but it is entirely true.  There are various degrees of psychopathy and benefits of being one.
Not all psychopaths are rapists and murderers.  Most are just good businessmen, soldiers, or criminal interrogators
https://listverse.com/2016/04/22/10-unexpected-benefits-to-being-a-psychopath/

And just imagine what those individuals do in war zones where they can truly unleash that psycho in them... Disgusting.

@Nick Toussaint get paid dollars, boast of you lovely kids and wife on TV. I guess that' the way it goes nowadays,

everywhere. There was a medical surgeon in my homeland, Gabon that performed multiple operations on a beautiful girl who she was trying to befriend. He forgot a piece of surgical glove or bandage several times in her and she had to go back for treatment. The naive people still do not understand till today that all this might have been sexual. That is Africa for you.

@Blue Vega Sorry, Mate! Fixed it. Thanks for letting me know. 😅

@Mr. Joesterr Obviously you aren't aware of how many company CEOs have Antisocial Personality Disorder (the new DSM-5 terminology for psychopaths and sociopaths). They are good at their job because they can focus without emotional constructs getting in their way. I'm not necessarily saying it's always a good thing, but it has been for many companies and political positions. They get work done much easier and faster. So, yeah, they do add to society. 1 in 25 people have Antisocial Personality Disorder and 98% of them aren't dangerous at any point in their life. That's not to say that I'm not scared of them, it's just to lay out scientific fact. I personally have no interest in being around such a person (I have before and I got the hell away as soon as I felt it was safe to quit the job I had that forced me to be around her) but they can and do add to society.

@Ryan DeCoste it's been proven by brain scans that psychopaths are born with a missing genetic that allows them not to feel emotions, yes in many cases thier environment has enhanced a psychopath to act on feelings with no emotion.... this is why they are rapist, molesters, killer's, abusers and so on....they can't acknowledge between the two. I'm sorry but they don't serve a benefit to society they are a burden and ruin innocent lives!

@Mr. Joesterr<br> Psychopathy is a mental illness like any other. Many people live with it, and maintain normal lives in spite of it. I can't say Diego's comment is really appropriate here given the context, but Psychopathy, Socialpathy, and many other forms of mental illness are misunderstood by the general public. They're people too.

abc xyz They dont pay the mechanics and mess hall cooks to be killers lol don’t generalize too hard

@Diego Maradonna It's not usefulness to society that determines whether they continue existing, it's whether or not they can reproduce

Diego Maradonna I think you mean sociopaths,, they have the ability to not feel remorse (or anything worthy really) except anxiety or anguish. Can be good for an FBI agent, a military man, suicide line operator, 911 operator, ect. But psychopaths are just,,, not useful at all in our society. They like causing pain, fear or even inflict injuries or death. How is that useful?

Most male psychopaths go into the military or law enforcement and most female psychopaths go into nursing. Makes way too much sense

Amazing and selfless individuals in the military.

I have a buddy that was a drill sergeant at a basic training facility. He told me he had a recruit report to him that was slightly off. It soon came out that he had a habit of catching, killing, and skinning cats, squirrels, and a dog or two. All signs of a psycho. He had told his recruiter about these behaviors and his recruiter DIDN’T CARE. His recruiter signed him up and shipped him off to be trained how to kill. Needless to say, that kid was kicked out pretty promptly.

Ray, you got it wrong.<br>The area of life where is the largest portion of psychopaths is in the business world. They make excellent businessman.

that and police are breeding grounds for them

Ray's Dad - join up and you'll meet hundreds. Most psychopaths either go into military or law enforcement so they can attempt to legally shoot and/or hurt others. Especially people that join th army. You would be surprised by how many join simply bc they will be trained and allowed to use guns freely.

No one in the military is normal. They're all paid to be "legal" murderers to advance the corporation's interests, not to protect you or for so called "freedom". They are paid to do things that are unthinkable and that's why in war times so many of them commit rape, child molestation, and cold blooded murder. That's why they come back into society after war times with PTSD because they fractured their conscience if they had any at all.  These murderers are thought of as heroes and that's why this reality is like a Twilight Zone. People fear those who have served 20 years in prison for murdering one person and yet applaud those who have murdered like a serial killer in war.  This feeds mankind's lust for killing and that's why most people sign up they're not drafted.  Once a person has taken another person's life what's to keep them from killing you in line at the grocery store?

I think there are some dodgy ideas about how evolution works going on in this thread...

@jessegro4 no dollars, its taboo and disgusting, but feel free to support your point

Angelo Lorwa nope. I find most rapists to be friendly when they aren’t out and about having non-consensual sex

Yes but he is a colonel though. Pretty NUTS if you ask me

Yes but he is a colonel though. Pretty NUTS if you ask me

@Mr. Joesterr A lot of people aren't aware of this fact however, working together as the human race has always been a big struggle caused my culture and high patriotism to a government/countries beliefs.

Another thing about being a psychopath is that lack of emotions also attributes to attachment to such culture and viewing the human race more of a whole then parts of a puzzle giving a view that's more global appealing without bias as the culture they were raised in.

But obviously they dont all think that way, it's all based on the process of their own thoughts and how their mind works. Russel obviously was on a much different wavelength and only contributed to the stigma that psychopaths are nothing but trouble, but they can be just as righteous as any non-pyscho person

Chris Rife that doesn’t necessarily contribute to society’s well being. If I am in a combat situation I will do what I need to do to protect myself without me being a psychopath.

Diego Maradonna there is no discernible inherent use for a psychopath they are by definition less capable of making decisions that contribute to society’s well being.


His hairline is twisted; just like his character.


I’m amazed at how the detective never reacted while hearing such horrific answers

Nope the tone fluctuates a bit hence won't call it he doesn't react.

@Lisa P not much i suppose, like whatever, the guy got what he deserved for his horrible actions, the detective is doing his job...he wouldnt be able to be this good if he would get angry at someone confessing to murder etc.


Shoot, even I would confess my deepest secrets if that detective was talking to me. Amazing work! I salute you!


what if one of dem psychos watched this video, bruh, they'd know better


25:55 Ole John Norman got quote a promotion there! "John Norman is a world renowned footwear imprsession expert."  Hes actually just the officer 2 doors down kind enough to print out the image for detective Smith since there were no experts on the premises.  That made me laugh pretty good.


The narrator should look into voice over work.


This is honestly one of my favorite videos on YouTube, the power of the interrogation tactics, the politics behind the crimes, truly truly fascinating stuff and great work JCS!!!


i absolutely love true crime because it simultaneously sobers me to the true evil that i risk my life living among on the daily and solidifies my choice to not procreate and impose these risks on my kids' lives.


No matter how many times I watch this or watch the entire interrogation, I'm constantly amazed by Detective Jim Smith. I really hope he goes on to teach other detectives, his skills are impressive.


This interrogation is being used as a training video for my local agency. Really genius stuff


I never tire of listening to Jim Smith during this interview.


he is so disconnected to the terror he inflicted on his victims. He actually slept with a bound victim next to him in the bed. These poor women went through hell and then he disposed of them like throwing trash in a bin.

@Michael Starr Its so bizarre that he was worried about Jessica during her seizure and then minutes later murdered her. Something was definitely broken in this man

@Blake1720 That's a very narrow assumption...

@OSTAP BENDERVAN Learn

Eh?

@Matthew Kennedy humans are animals..... but i agree if u mean hes a monster

Seriously how on earth can you sleep in that situation. True psychopath.

For real I was so confused when he said that. Like, you don't feel weird about any of what you just did?

He has to be disconnected. How else he'll live his life without guilt eating him up.

Lucy he wore the pantie
All dress up
He.was hurting inside
Cottage had him for years
The.safety was the pantie  lust man.demons can have you.

@Sababa Hummus i think it depends on the prison in question and whether or not the criminal in question will make friends once there, but i feel like life in supermax without parole and plenty of solitary is far greater punishment than death, which would relieve him of any consequences

@Matthew Kennedy prison is a waste of tax money and resources better to just dispose of people like him


Wow, suffocation to me is one of the worst ways to die. Its one of my biggest fears I can't imagine how terrified the first women must have been being awake during this happening

@Jarrell Neriah SHaMaH ya but with burning alive u pass out prety quick from the pain, it can take awhile to be suffocated. But both are obviously beyond horrible

Burning alive, having a knife cut through my Achilles and being suffocated, all simultaneously, might be the worst of all.  I might have gotten that from the Saw movies, or Hostel.

Sorry but I'd have to disagree. I would think burning alive would be worse!

Drowning is worse, I imagine a suffocated person eventually just falls asleep but I can't imagine my lungs filling with water ;__;

Agreed. I’m not afraid of most things and consider myself to be a strong individual but the thought of being strangled and having my life taken away is horrible.
Even in films I can’t stand people choking or suffocating.

I feel your pain! 😱

@Brittany Kayy ok sorry I misunderstood then

@Gunner4life i was just relating to the girl who was killed that way. Suffocation is alot of peoples fears. I was just thinking how terrified she must have been. Thats all

@Brittany Kayy I think you misunderstood me you said "one of my biggest fears" I was wondering why would you think that way but it seems you didn't see my point. sorry

@Gunner4life what? I said that caused he suffocated some of the girls he killed...im not just randomly saying this its in the video....

omg why would you think of being suffocated you are building anxiety in you


This channel is so well put together.
Cudo’s!
Keep the content coming! 🙏🏽


Its amazing how much knowledge of things like body language these guys have. I'd be afraid to talk to them about what I had for breakfast. What if I move in a way that means something?!


Love this channel. Bring more.

Just keep in mind this is Canada, i.e. he was supposed to be told he won't be leaving (as they strongly suspected it's him), the sitting between the suspect and the door is considered a form of detention and as long as you had an access (phone call) to a lawyer, interview keeps going no matter how many times the suspect says I wanna talk to a lawyer.


31:03 was my favorite part. The detective just whispers "Russell" and he jerks his head up. It's almost painful to so clearly see the distress he's experiencing Lol


I'd never heard many of the facts you mentioned regarding this guy's case. I'm watching all you videos now and assisting you on Patreon even though this kind is information is dangerous for the masses-- I'm just pretty sure they're too dumb to utilize it.


I think this is the most fascinating one I've watched. Simultaneously amazing and disturbing to hear him casually confess with every single detail.


I seriously do not know how investigators can keep going with conversations about disgusting details of people’s crimes


That patch of hair is where all his evil is stored!

If that's where it's stored i'd say it's running a little low.

That hair patch is practicing social distancing, for sure

Lmao, I was scrolling down to see who was going to give his soulless patch honourable mention

You can see his hairline shrink with every sigh

I couldn’t stop looking at it. It had me mesmerized.

Arielle - I didn’t want to laugh...but I did.


Even though you can clearly tell that the detective is becoming exhausted from the long interrogation process. He still manages to keep his composure and ask all the right questions.


He says so casually..."I went in her house, just to have a look around"......very, very scary.

He collects undies before getting deeper in this disgusting acts


I keep coming back to this one. Your best work!


"Call me Russ, please" <br>I wonder if being called Russell reminds him of someone from his past 🤔

"Call me Russ, please"
I wonder if being called Russell reminds him of someone from his past 🤔

Whoever Russell is or whomever called him Russell is the cause of all of this.


I wish this channel had more videos - not because I am happy with the subject matter, but only because this channel is honestly educational and quite intriguing.


I like to think that he opened up so easily and quickly due to his perception of honor. He was a soldier after all (pardon my english) and apart from all those tragedies, he served his country. After he realised that they caught him he might've thought to himself - "ok, it's over, there's no point in lying about anything, you fucked up and you are going to take it with respect and honor"

@E J exactly, he wasn't acting honourably when he was caving their heads in.

@E J exactly. People look for any reason to defend rape

@E J Your looking at your perceived notion of "honor". This man is a hardened psychopath that has excelled in a military career. He might not flinch at killing civilians or raping innocents but than truly be concerned for his wife. Its how mobsters can kill someone with a baseball bat, chop up their body and dump it in the river and than be completely obedient to their mom who scolds them. His fear truly might have had to do with his loss of his perceived honor (military accolades, his wife etc.). These people are able to dissociate the crime from their every day life. The man is a monster no doubt. Cruel and unremorseful this man deserves the harshest of penalties.

burbon  look he fell for the interrogation tactics not because he’s honourable and decided to give up but because he panicked.

I don’t think there’s any evidence to go off to indicate that he was in any way honourable. His military history doesn’t make him honourable. His caving and confessing to a crime doesn’t make him honourable. Moreover honour speaks of moral character, of which this dude clearly didn’t have from what I saw.

Yeah sure Hitler probably wasn’t a horrible human to everyone for all of the time, but the acts he committed (the death of millions) outweighs any “honour” he may have had, same as this guy.

Basically I see no evidence to claim he had a moral character.

T K <br>I agree, Russell Williams is a gentleman and a scholar

T K
I agree, Russell Williams is a gentleman and a scholar

@E J I don't romanticize him. I also think he's completely wicked and deserves the punishment he got. I just want to take a step further in the analysis of his character. I try to understand his actions. He snapped really easily at the "crossroads". He could've just said he doesn't want to provide DNA, get a lawyer and voila, work something from that point. You are looking at this case in a strictly binary fashion - someone is a monster or not. I just tried to not do the same. I understand your anger towards him though.


I'm sure it helps that hes a military man, he understands that science and tech are a threat to him, and he's less reliant on wishful thinking and more of a realist.


Hey my name is Petch from Bangkok Thailand. I got introduced to this channel by my boyfriend. I just wanna say thank you JCS for putting out such an interesting video for your audience all the time. I love your channel. will continue to love and support you from here :))))))))

and I love Bangkok!  lived there 5 years.


damn, I love this channel, so descriptive, well done


I'd like to know more about this monster's early life. I wonder if there were signs. (Edit)I found this article: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.theglobeandmail.com/amp/news/national/colonel-russell-williams-the-making-of-a-mystery-man/article4390081/


The guy will make me confess about sniffing coke 2 years ago


I've seen all the videos on this channel, but this interrogator is so next-level compared to the rest.


This is absolutely incredible. In a horrifying kind of way. Not gonna lie, I watch a lot of stuff like this and I couldn't stand to finish the video when he was giving a play-by-play of his assaults. Nevertheless, I love this channel and the like-minded weirdos who also clicked on an hour-long video of a criminal interrogation. <3


I’m glad they catch these guys, but it blows my mind how none if them ever opt for a lawyer. I wouldn’t talk to the police on my own if they watched me get victimized with their own eyes, much less under interrogation.


Does anyone know a book that concisely lists and explains the interrogation techniques that JCS mentions in these videos? Asking for a friend.


the investigator got him with a footprint and a tire print, i am very impressed with his skills.


For people who know more about law... Would this be admissible in court? Or would the defense say that this man was coerced? I mean, is a confession enough to convict someone?


Well, i'm very late here, but I have the feeling Russell wanted to talk about his crimes because for him, all those crimes is just like a trophy: "Look, I have been doing all this s* for ages and you never caught me". He knew that, perhaps, some day he would be caught so he's prepared to it, somehow. Kudos to the detective for his excellent job!


THEY HAD NOTHING! And 1 dude cracked this fool! Whew, amazing to watch.


this feels like watching Mind Hunters... wow, this interrogator is so smart


DAMN!! The detective is displaying 1st rate interrogation  skills but my ability to watch and learn from it is being made difficult as the recording of his great work was clearly the result of a 3rd rate amateur.  I can take the 'wobbling' sound from the table but when it starts to hurt my ears even though it comes from normal movement, I feel angry.  There is NO EXCUSE for that level of incompetency. My frustration stems from the fact that this subject matter is the MOST IMPORTANT work any police investigation; bar none!<br> I am gonna go out on a limb and say that this detective's skill set does not require any knowledge of visual and audio recording efforts (nor should it). Therefore it is the fault of and belongs at the feet of the Top Cop of that police force (Chief, etc)!!!

It is really fascinating how many suspects who age guilty talk to police without an attorney present.  If I was indeed guilty of a crime I wouldn't open my mouth without an attorney in the room!


What a genius interrogator. He remained so calm and void of any disgust. If that were me, I probably would have lost my cool before even walking in to meet the creep. It's insane what a psychopath Williams is, and I don't use that word lightly. Shocking to see someone who was in such high power hide his disgusting secret for so long. Seriously, kudos to that interrogator and kudos to you, Jim, for another great video. I've been binge watching your videos all week - I'm obsessed!!


Also: the speed he is chewing gum: The more nervous, the faster you chew... Even if you concentrate, in some time you will forget about it and youll chew faster. Very smart


I love what this detective had to say to Michael Rafferty.


This interrogater is a goddamn jedi. I can't belive he got him singing like this. It's so crazy that people can just kill another like this with no fucks given. It's so upsetting.


It's quite fascinating just how easily he cracked without much effort.


He must have worked hard to establish such a good career for himself and he just goes out and destroys multiple lives like it’s no big deal and just one of those things. It’s fascinating and hideous


Such a Fascinating and horrifying Case.  Thank you ☺.


Don't take this the wrong way but credit to Russell for not breaking down into a fake remorse tantrum which is very common when the perp gets cornered. I do see remorse in him, some say he's bragging but I feel in that moment he accepted what would happen to him and that felt that he deserved it.


This is insane, he started with: „you can leave everytime you want“ and in the end he literally got a full statement.


It is disturbing to listen to him describe how he helped her through her seizure, literally just after he raped her. The definition of a psychopath.


A masterful interrogation... Used in police academies...


That cat story is chilling! Can you imagine that😔


LOL the Boot print expert is really a guy that just printed the copy of the boot print next door.

Christopher Marlowe I get that but this new vid on Williams completely re-spins the way it’s being presented now, was never mentioned in the original upload about him. Why is that?

Found it but I was wrong about it being a murder, it was a rape case. Recently written about in Salon magazine:

“Galbraith checked out the footprints left at the Lakewood scene. They matched the footprints in the snow outside her victim’s apartment in Golden. She sent images of the shoe prints to crimeshoe.com, a website that promised to move an investigation “from an unidentified scene-of-crime shoeprint to detailed footwear information in one simple step.” The site, now defunct, identified the prints as having been made by a pair of Adidas ZX 700 mesh shoes, available in stores after March 2005.”

https://www.salon.com/2015/12/17/an_unbelievable_story_of_rape_partner/

doublesman0 shoe print technology is actually a thing g despite what this video says, I just read about a different case where the shoe print lead to finding the murderer, can’t think of the names, atm but apparently there used to a website called crimeshoe dot com, no longer in existence. If I can remember the case, I’ll post a link, just drawing a blank atm.


9:42 He can let all his pals at the prison know that he IS, indeed, a coffee guy. They'll want to know that so they can't have a fresh cup of coffee ready for him when he visits them in the yard and avoid a nasty faux pas.


That's some damn good detective work.. a serial murderer and rapist taken in through interrogation? Something out of a movie..


Watching these videos makes it so frustrating bc you can totally see how bad they lie


well he thought it was his right to do this to her. it's the basic officer mindset in any military; anyone lower ranking than you is yours to do what you deem fit


You would have thought he'd have had a kill kit containing shoes that he used solely for his vile doings. Not as smart as he thinks he is! Jim Smyth is a legend the world over. If I had committed a crime and he walked in I'd know I was done for and hold my hands up immediately because you ain't going to beat Jim!


22:40 When a detective asks you if you are familiar with the CSI TV series, you know are going to have a bad time.


So many don't know that police interrogators are allowed to lie, always ask for an attorney


This is easily the most interesting channel on YouTube


Honestly the only reason he confessed is cause he knew there was no way out. Those long periods of silence were him thinking whether or not he should confess or fight it.


Singing tone “you’ll never find.... Blum Blum Blum Blum; a hair line like mine” —Mike epts


Russel: *Commits crime*

Jim Smith: Hippity hoppity your confession is now the police’s property

The synchronization technique looks so goofy. It's kind of funny.


At about 32:30...
Russ: I ll take the cold blooded psychopath option. Supersize me!


They'd have caught this man much earlier except that a) the local police forces were clearly not sharing information of crimes and b) the police ignored Williams during the house to house canvass as they were told he was a senior military officer and therefore, they thought, couldn't possibly be guilty of anything.

You never really know someone. This guy is a prime example of not knowing someone. Scary stuff! Psycho dude!


I've never had a desire to join a patreon, until now...

I joined patreon just for this guys videos.


This is chilling.  How casually he uses the word rape is unsettling for some reason.  Jut his whole demeanour.


I don’t think he’s s psychopath, I think he’s just an addict, or narcissism.


I don't feel like this one was some extreme interrogation techniques ... The guy just calculated what's happening and decided to confess.


I haven't finished watching, but I'm certain that gum is going to be swallowed.


wow i went to grab a snack, came back and this guy is still trying to figure out what day it is 🤔


Loved this video but I’m still confused as to why the first few clips of the young lady sobbing in an interrogation were included? What case is that from?

Its a preview for another video in his pateron


The interrogator goes from talking about the victim in the past tense during the interrogation, to talking about her in the present tense the moment he confesses.. Id like to understand the change in gears like that! Id assume he talks about her in the past tense during the interrogation to reinforce the impression that the law enforcement has a complete understanding of what happened as if to say "we know everything - including her current fate, so resisting is pointless," Not sure about the jump back after the confession.


His account of how Marie France Comeau discovers he's in her basement is nothing short of <i>terrifying</i>

His account of how Marie France Comeau discovers he's in her basement is nothing short of _terrifying_


In case you’ve never seen an exclamation mark as a haircut


"She did as I said. I said "lie down on your tummy". I continued to rape her and I had her put on some of her underwear and took some pictures. Lots of pictures."

I feel horror just imagining this. That is a nightmare. She wanted to die every moment of it. I can't imagine the trauma this poor woman experienced. She wakes up and finds a stranger in her house, twice her size, telling her what to do, knowing fully well that her future was likely over. My heart cannot hurt enough for the women this man harmed.

Rape is about control and power. Don't ever let anyone tell you that it's about sex or the clothing someone is wearing. It has NOTHING to do with sex. This man was high with power due to his position in the military. The military is toxic and breeds monsters.


The very last bit in the video about Jim Smith is very interesting. There are comments here with 1k likes saying what a genius he is for getting a confession etc and yeah he is probably really good but the truth is that this interrogation wasnt a very hard one: He had a genius in front of him who basically realized it's over due to the strong evidence they already had. So of course Jim Smith will brush off the hype.

thats some next level crosshatching in those court drawings


The interrogator mimicked his body language and unlocked his trust with the suspect mimicking him! So crazy cool!


All’s im saying is if the man has this haircut, he guilty


Why was the only thing Williams asked for, to limit the impact on his wife given a confession, not respected? They put on TV all sorts of photos just for sensationalism as if the rapes and murders were not damning enough.
I'll state the obvious, this investigator is a beast and completely destroyed Williams by getting him to confess to all of these crimes in just over an hour but I don't understand why they didn't make it less of a show.
Some would say that Williams is the dummy for taking Smith to his word and others could also say that Williams is the one who brought this upon his wife, etc. I think those are true but, the only thing that the investigators had control over and a certain ethical responsability over was to limit the psychological damage done to the wife, who was innocent, as far as we know.


That Dallas cop detective in the beginning is my favorite he was on first 48 I don't remember his name tho.


A shoe print manufacturered in a form by thousands is as distinctive as a fingerprint just shows how smart Williams isn't


He saw her on her treadmill.  Never understood the obsession with leaving a wide open view into your house...especially at night.

@violet sparkles this. Period. If it wasn't the window it would be skimpy workout clothes or jogging alone or drunk or or or...

@violet sparkles It's possible but I'm sure you've seen what I'm talking about. Lots of people leave open views to their homes. They're free to do that of course. It just seems risky to me.

@V N I agree tho, like I don't know why Canadians like to keep their doors unlocked. I don't think people do that anymore. Especially in apartment buildings.

@violet sparkles I draw the line at common sense. And no one said she was deserving of it, she doesn't. Nobody also said he wasnt wrong and shouldn't be off the streets. You're expecting the world to peaceful, beautiful, and for it to work around you and it doesn't. The person who is going to lock their doors minimizes their risk compared to the ones that don't. It's a simple concept.

V N again, she could’ve forgotten to close the curtains. If it wasn’t her, Russ could’ve easily picked someone random, like in the streets and followed her home. Then would you say she shouldn’t have gone out side because there’s bad people out there? Where do we draw the line?<br>Fact is she got attacked in her own home. And nobody deserves that.

Fact is she got attacked in her own home. And nobody deserves that.

It's called being proactive in protecting oneself. It'll be nice to live in a world with no bad guys and only sane rational people. But we don't. If I throw cash up in the air in view of people, it's likely I'll be targeted as someone to rob versus those that don't do that. It doesn't make the guy robbing me any less wrong. Some lessons don't need to be experienced to be learned.

she couldve simply forgotten to close the curtains...

@maroon Forsyth You two are not that ignorant.  I never said that the man shouldn't be held accountable.  Every time a man suggests that a woman do something that "might" lower the chances of being a victim, women start accusing us of victim blaming. Do you really not understand the difference between concern for the victim and excusing the criminal's behavior?

Yes of course they are. It's always women shouldnt do this, women shouldnt do that. Men should be held accountable. If she didnt leave her window open there would be some other thing she did wrong.

@maroon Forsyth Pretty sure they're alluding to the fact that leaving your windows open thus yourself exposed is a bad idea.


Were you forced to make your other videos private to appease YouTube because you didn't have "permission" to use the content in them? Shame if so, I really enjoyed them..


How did he have such a high level job yet was so stupid he didnt get a lawyer before he started talking .. the whole time he could of just walked out .. easy life sentence 👌🏾


I don't know whether this investigator is great or the defendant is very easy to crack? That was terribly quick.


Please eventually show the interviews that are in the intro.


Omfg how can he show no remorse or emotions at all


lmao this dudes plan was foiled by a cat. serves him right


A very evil and sexually deviant man. I had a nightmare after watching this.


5:03 I thought it was a female police officer that noticed a SUV parked by her house off the road in the middle of the night.

two neighbourhood dudes driving by noticing SUV out of place


This guy is a true psychopath.  The matter-of-fact way he talks about the murder and rape is just unreal.


How he came in as a proud general then went out for life jail funeral .


I want to see the Andy B case!!!!!!!!!!!!!


they give out TS clearance like a creepy guy giving out candy at a elementary school out of his van. It's not that difficult to get lol! Just don't have a criminal history and don't have any outstanding debts.


He comforted her during a seizure and lay down with her to comfort her.....? That poor girl must have been thinking that she may be getting out of it alive.

I believe he told both victims as much that they would be alive if they cooperated


35:08 I noticed the Detective was putting his hand on his face earlier in the interview also, why?


thought number 1: From wikipedia: "Ontario Superior Court Justice Robert F. Scott sentenced Williams on October 22, 2010, to two concurrent terms of life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years.[59]". Allowing the possibility of parol is like saying we think this person can be reformed and can once again become a contributor to society. He also apparently collects his military pension. Is there any crime for which the Canucks will hand down commensurate retribution in serving justice? Thought number 2: It's just so remarkable to think about the secret mental lives people live. I suppose persons of action are more likely to act on those but this guy and BTK and people like these are just so scary because they are not the mentally impoverished psycho of the ilk portrayed in Silence of the Lambs. Rather they are totally stand-up people and seemingly otherwise normal in every way.


Not a single second passed where he didn't bob his head up and down


small note: I noticed he was honestly concerned about his wife reaction when she discovers her husband criminal personality.


The way he’s chewing that gum is making it so hard to watch 😖  I’ve never witnessed that type of chewing in my life


This guy “Bernardo” must had been a true life monster I’ve heard his name come up in a few of these interrogations. I need to google him.

Zone6ZoneSix oh, well, Bernardo’s story is unbelievable and horrible.


The entire interview i just wanted to take a set of clippers at trim off that patch of hair on his dome that he is so desperately clinging on to.


28:24 ‘it would get the detective one foot in the door’... one FOOT lol 😆🦶


Seems to me that a true psychopath would not admit to the crimes. At least he came clean when confronted with it. He developed a very rare fetish that is dark and perverse. The jury is still out on whether or not every human is capable of this. The scariest part of looking at this video and similar comes from the fear of these traits being within oneself -- like looking down that huge drop and thinking of what would happen if you jumped. Some people do jump.


He was so embarrassed explaining the details of the rape yet he was not embarrassed at all when perpetrating it. Go to hell man.


Do the interrogators ever anticipate a violent outburst/attack? Doesn't seem that way?


OFFICER: 0:38
ME: " John did it! Here is his address, his mom's address,  his Instagram name, his favorite TV shows, a sample of his blood, a hair follicle...


Detectives hair plugs worked out well.  Several years after this video, he’s got a full head of hair now.


Does anyone else wish they were being interrogated lol. I can not imagine a reason I would he put in that situation though. Even if I were, I think it wouldn't be much of a convo because I dont speak to police or answer questions.  Talking can NEVER help you only hurts you even if you are INNOCENT


Am i the only person who could only focus on his absolutely ridiculous hairline


"tummy." Rapes and kills her. This is psychopathic as it gets.


This guy had womens clothes locked away at home. If my hubby had a box or a room that he forbade me from,  id be in that cupboard or box within 2 seconds while he was still in the same room.


I feel sorry for Jessica's parents having to listen to her horrible last moments.


Ask for a nonce haircut in the barbers,this what they give you.


Most of these channels state what are IMO stating obvious facts. You don't do that. Thank you


The interrogator said, "Can you tell me what the issue is that you're struggling with?" and it reminded of me of techniques I was once taught when I was a car salesman....briefly....Its actually rather interesting how similar the two professions can be.


I did learn so much through this video. Thank you for your explanation and analysis of this interregation


Anybody know the name of that island🌴on his head?


Rustin Cohle hasn't got shit on this Detective.


Great content. Praise be to Metokur for mentioning this channel


0:30 i wonder if they put a angry black man in there with her intentionally in order to get her to break and admit the truth? Maybe they correctly guessed that she was weak of will, and that scaring her would be more effective than talking with her?


This is the best content I've seen on YouTube! I would rather watch you talk about this than watch my craft channels.


Join his patron it's golden content this is the only patron I have joined best dollar you will ever spend 😉


Dammit I wish I never saw the interrogation already, can’t wait for Jim to break it down though.


The investigator is a hero. Someones life was saved that day. Video references crossroads in peoples lives were one decision can drastically alter your life's path. This investigator undoubtedly changes at least one person life path drastically. Must be chilling to have been a woman living in that area after finding this out.


I love your channel.

This detective is magnificent


They had nothing on him - could have walked out at any time


Broke him in under an hour, wow!<br>That's how nice Canadians are.. They confess quickly so the investigator can go sleep early

Broke him in under an hour, wow!
That's how nice Canadians are.. They confess quickly so the investigator can go sleep early

@Jamie Brown wikipedia says 10 hours in full, he was taken in at 3 pm and by 7:45 he was describing the crimes, great interrogation technique, he stopped a dangerous serial killer from being free for much longer.

He was actually interrogated for like 8 hours

This is edited down, I think the full length interrogation is about seven hours.

Wanted this to fit nicely into a television format-lol.


i wish this evil creature can relive and experience his victims' pain and horror ... bu thats not possible, cos if he could... he would not hv done it.


I live in Ottawa. I also remember this case and news... Great job Ottawa Police. Broke a colonel in 57 minutes. Nice work 👍<br>And great footage in this video. And your narrative is very good!

I live in Ottawa. I also remember this case and news... Great job Ottawa Police. Broke a colonel in 57 minutes. Nice work 👍

I would like to see the interrogation of the 1st girl at the beginning of this video.  Anyone know her name?


Respect to Jim Smith. <br>For the confession he obtained. His refusal of all offers is highly commendable.

Respect to Jim Smith.
For the confession he obtained. His refusal of all offers is highly commendable.


Id say he probably lost his job after this

alina ward yeah he def aint got that top secret clearance no more! Lol 😝


The second the cop says "search warrant" you can almost see his mind going to all that women's underwear and all the pics of him in it. It's also strange to think the last moment of freedom this guy had was walking from his car the the door of the station. Once through that door he would never see a moment of freedom again.


@34:44 What is the significance of this? Is he Russell most of the time, & Russ when he committed the crimes?


Nice. One of the best interrogations I've ever seen.


He's good - using the hairline to his advantage to distract from the crime

It doesn't seem to have been very effective....U wouldn't say he's good


It’s amazing to me how long people will talk without a lawyer. They don’t have to say a word without counsel but they talk and talk. 🤔

You do NOT need a lawyer. You know what you did and didn't do. A defender will help the process, give you an ally. But, Dewey Cheatum and Howe are mercenaries who see your problems as their beach house. Its not Medicine. Its archaic, European property and propertieless social structure designed to keep the weak scared of the powerful. Ocassionally, something akin to fairness and justice happens. Usually, Big Business for the most screwed up Western Civilization.

Germany did far worse in a short span. But, everyday is greed, crime, drugs, mental illness, broken family bonds, murder, accidents, voyeurism, narcissism, racism, consumerism, pollution here in the Good Ole USA.

I'm a veteran, son of veterans. I've never been patriotic.Maybe for a few months in 2001.

Stewart McJinnon   „Zero tolerance for rape“ that’s how it should be!! So you say society did kill these women!?

@Pingus Ha ha. I wouldn't. And it doesn't matter much anyway. Looking guilty isn't a conviction. I'd ask for a lawyer immediately.

@MK Hogan you saying that is already making you look way guiltier then what you just said. Literally just DON'T talk at all.

@Rick writes ... I enjoyed looking into the Chris Watts case also.  It is a journey.  Everything is.  Rather than focus on the act of violence and labeling people based on their actions, exploring their journey is being more open minded.  I say leaders tend to look at things from the opposite direction also.  Followers have a one tracked mind.  <br>Also I see a pattern how rape becomes murder simply due to an attempt to silence the victim.  Harsh rape laws lead to women dying.  It is not an easy one to deal with.  Well I suppose these rare cases are unfortunate compared to the strong deterant for commiting rape.  It just shows that these murders are not thrill kills.  It is all about self preservation.

@Rick writes ... I enjoyed reading all that.  Yes I now look beyond the facade that is our society.  I use what I call a leadership lens.   It is our tribalism mentality.  Any threat to the mental state of our society gets labelled as evil and gets ostracized.  Too many labels.  New ones just keep popping up.  They are all descriptive or are shaped within the context of society.  Labels tend to lock in our thinking.  I like to connect the dots and not have a disconnected mind full of labels.  I feel for answers rather than just observe and judge.  I look within and understand others by understanding myself.  It is a two way street.  It is leadership.  It is about taking the ego.

@Stewart McJinnon

It IS interesting how Russ originally started with burgling women's underwear- a crime much more innocent *at least in relation * to where he ended up. Then assault. Raping. Torture. Killing.

It's refreshing  to hear a different theory than "Russ had psychopathy". I havent finished watching, so I dont know which theory I'd agree with yet, but it's intriging to put forth an idea other than what is essentially a damaged  prefrontal cortex. Not all killers, not even all serial killers, are strictly psychopaths in the fMRI-meets-Hare-checklist sense. This one had a paraphilia, and unlike say, Bundy, my understanding is when Russ's B&E began he focused on only on the clothing for his fetish, with no victim contact. It seems you're postulating the possibility Russ started committing those crimes without any urge or intention or plan to rape and or kill people, that this was a later development.
Psychopaths do have a ramp up,  but it usually begins with violence like simple assault on a wife or gf , not nonviolent creeper paraphilia. Also if you have served and have seen many military men who are very human inside (or began that way) but can appear and behave as if they are emotionless because of their military training or experiences, you may see (or mistake)  the possibility of Russ either having been one of these and this somehow coupled with the panty  fetish somehow combusted and drew him deeper into sadism, (or even that he still has hidden emotion). Its unlikely but possible.

Something I think worth mentioning here is Orgasmic Conditioning. It plays a role in why paraphilia's for wearing panty here is different than someone just having a fetish or kink to do it. Paraphilia's destroy the will of those  affected like youd say drugs do to an addict. Where they need more and more intensity, stronger etc, to get off, or even to get hard. This is why the controversial idea of neutralizing pedophiles by giving them animated porn or a set library of doctor-prescribed, mild pedoporn from the 30s (so the actual victims are mostly dead of old age)  is actually  NOT something that would help neutralize them. Having an orgasm while using such porn would condition their already affected brain and body to seek out more intense versions of it, inevitably resulting in the harm of a child. (That's the best analogy I've got). Anyway, it's totally valid to have a theory hes not a psychopath but a combination of other factors.

I find it interesting how quickly people always are to diagnose psychopathy actually. I wonder if it is our way of disassociating such killers from our species.
Because if we were to accept they're not, and are as human as we are...then you may be right, we can learn about ourselves, and each other, from we have always killed,  the majority killed (and still kill) for socially acceptable reasons (war and self defense; in some cultures revenge or vigilantism) or at least socially understandable ones - (losing control due to jealousy or rage, usually the ones we refer to as voluntary manslaughter/2nd degree murder, "crime of passion" etc.). So maybe not so compatible with ol' "call me Russ" here.

MK Hogan a lot of people in that situation think they can talk their way out of trouble. They think that if they tell their side of the story, they will somehow get to go home that night.

@Nana yeah dudette, I don't believe he is a psychopath.

@Stewart McJinnon Dude you seem to have zero understanding of psycopathy. Concern over reputation and well-being are two very different things. Reputation is an outward factor and well-being an inward emotion. Reputation reflects on him and well-being does not.

@Stewart McJinnon please don't refere to rape as a fetish. That's disgusting.

@Stewart McJinnon I'd bet money that he sees his wife as a form of property. And he's just depleted her value by getting caught. The mans a rapist. None of their relationships are real. Slugs have more empathy.

Bottom line, if this guy had a lawyer, he wouldn't be in jail rn

@MK Hogan on this same channel you can watch the interigation of a cop who knows all about this stuff, Lazarus, shits different when you really in the room i would presume

@Phil Ill ... rubbish.  He finds himself where he does not want to be.  He is doing what any normal person would do under this situation.  He cannot understand why he has done what he has done but he now is trying to work out his options.  Calling him labels may make you feel good but it only distorts your understanding.

@Phil Ill .... He knew he was done when the search warrant was being executed.

@19zuzi82 ..I'm not sure of  the distinction between his wife's reputation and well-being.  That makes no sense to me.  His long term good friend was completely shocked by the revelations.  This was on another program.  To me this does not neatly  fit into the label of psychopath.  I feel life events and experiences can take us on a downward spiral.  Yes he had a fetish and that was it.  No big deal.  But it was socially unacceptable especially due to his career.  He tried to manage both.  It got crazy.  Rape becomes murder when society shows zero tolerance.  Little steps lead you down a pathway to murder.  It is a journey.  Most serial killers describe it that way.  Killing becomes easier.  You cross a threshold.  He seems pretty normal to me.  I just don't have a fetish.  No, did not paste.  My thoughts in real time.

@Stewart McJinnon Is that a copypasta, 'cause it surely looks like one. If it's not, it's one hell of a tangent... And no, I think he was worried about his wife's reputation , not his wife well-being. If he truly cared about the woman he'd married he would have refrained himself from raping and murdering, for the sake of not putting her through the hell of having a murderer as a husband. Also, he just probably mentioned her to appear vaguely caring in hope to appeal to the interrogator. Feat at which he failed, BADLY.

@19zuzi82 ... well he did say he was concerned about his wife.  That should not be ignored or brushed aside.  I do not see why he would say it if it wasn't true.  I accept he had no feelings for his victims.  He was all ego so it was just about him.  His wife was in his little bubble though.  I am not really into labels.  We like to distance ourselves from people that  commit atrocious  acts.  I want  to learn about myself from these people.  We all have the capacity to turn evil.  War will bring it out.  Society has us hoodwinked.  I am on a journey of leadership growth.  It is about gaining access to the inner workings of the mind.  You get more control when you prove yourself worthy is how nature works.  I could kill now and not get too fazed about it.  No PTSD either.  Leaders are very resilient in that way.  But I am not a pervert and I do care about others.  So killing is only an act of necessity for me.  We are really tribal people.  Survival is the name of the game.

@Bethany ... I don't see it that way.  He just led a double life.  It was very risky behaviour.  He just esculated things.  It got out of hand.  He did try to frame someone with the murder though.  He was an addict I suppose.  I think he was a likable guy.  He would not of got so high up without the support of colleagues.  It is a very interesting case.  It tells me society is a facade when leadership can be feigned  to this level.  He has embarrassed emot of people and confused so many more let alone destroyed so many others.

@Stewart McJinnon The mind of a True Psychopath doesn't work like that, tho. Psychopaths have NO emotions, including relief. You can see clearly that he has zero remorse and zero regret, only disappointment in the fact that he's been caught.

Source: even tho just for fun and eagerness to learn, I attended the full course of Criminal Pathology at my Uni's Med school's MedPsych Master's degree.

He thinks he's smarter than everyone else.

It was a unique experience he found himself in.  We do learn from experience mostly and less from advice.

Never underestimate the (fake) power of arrogance and hubris, my friend...

@fighting on arrival, fighting for survival well said.  I find it very fascinating that it is usually a weight off the shoulders when they spill the beans.  I'm sure Russ felt a little of that.

I'll answer that.

Crime is an emotional action. This archetype of the coolheaded mastermind is a movie, novel, and comic book theme. Plus, when on the spot, you are nervous, looking for emotional release, validation. Guilt and the Fear of being found out, punished is an intense feeling. Almost as if there is God, applying the heat. You may have never been arrested. I've been handcuffed often, and I always sing like a canary. No real crimes, mostly alcoholic based. One time right place, wrong time.

The fact he remained after the interrogator told him he was free to leave was due to his arrogance and misplaced confidence in his own intelligence...perhaps thinking the interrogation wasn't overly serious and would be a cake-walk for him.  He may have initially thought he was only there to deal with a few easy questions - not as the prime suspect he actually was.

Tim McManus I would just say flat out. ‘Hey man, I’ve seen too much tv to talk to cops without a lawyer. You might think it makes me look guilty but I’m better safe than sorry.’ I’ve already taught my teenager to never, ever answer questions in a police station. To just say she can’t speak without counsel being there.

Probably because they think that refusing to speak will make them sound guilty, but staying and acting a fool makes them look even gultier.


if only he would stop bumping the damn microphone

Being watched, stalked, attacked, falsely imprisoned, in their own homes, beaten, retrained and entirely brutalized sexually, and psychologically and utterly emotionally violated before being murdered and discarded.

I hope he's someone's girlfriend in jail now

He tried to kill himself in prison actually, after writing a good bye note on the cell wall in mustard.


they had tire tracks from a popular tire brand and some boot prints, and this dude confessed, absolute master


Just finished watching the Watt family one, these are so addicting to watch! One thing ive learnt is that silent pause technique is too Overpowered 😂Gets them everytime xD


damn this was actually incredible, great content dude! You just got one more subscriber. Crazy how people can be manipulated into incriminating themselves


I remember seeing an episode of I Survived where one of his rape victims was telling her story and for some reason they decided to show pictures Russel had taken of himself in his victims' underwear. I have nothing against people who cross-dress but when you add in the circumstances surrounding photos and the fact there was absolutely nothing in his eyes, it's no wonder why those pictures still haunt me


This interrogator is a friggin gangsta. He must have to carry his balls around in a wheelbarrow.

@C A yawn, being contrarian out of boredom?

Ok I can understand an innocent person going in to answer a few questions without a lawyer,  even though it may not be in their interest.<br> But if you kill people and the cops want to talk to you, whether you are under arrest or you think its unrelated and just being "asked a few questions as a possible witness", you are a moron for talking to them.  Theres a reason why you NEVER see or hear of career criminals (drug dealers,  organized crime syndicates etc) saying anything but "hello" to police.

B watson I’m not sure you have any room to be calling another person a psycho

Maggie Ellis but what this shows is the cops can lie to you to trap you,with that said I guess you have to sometimes to do good work to get nut jobs off the streets

I wouldn't be surprised if that interrogator has some psychopathic traits himself. The way he coldly manipulated the guy, totally distancing himself emotionally from the conversation. It seemed as if every word and body language was a deliberate trap. Could also be that this guy is just really really good at this. Very impressive indeed

Maggie Ellis are you Scottish? I LOVE your profile picture!

@C A are you always so underwhelming? boring.

Yea he mopped the floor up with this goof

I thought his manipulation was pretty straightforward and routine.

There is so much going through his head at every second of this interview, things that cops say in a serious matter become a blur to him

Stoic Observer lol wtf are you talking about?

He wants to maintain rapport and not appear as the bad guy. Sociopaths are accudomef to making people believe they are the good guy. They were never allowed to feel anger as a child. So expressing it means they are weak and bad. But using power and authority to brutalize and violate another human being just proves that other human being is weak, dirty and bad. Why? Because they were victimized while small an fragile and weak. It is a super twisted dynamic inside their heads.

I think he was somewhat relieved at being caught.

@Mer Kitten Do you think you have to be intelligent to go to college?

He’s an amateur when it comes to being in trouble with the law. He’s green.

Savannah Ryder I think he wanted to stop. I think he actually felt bad about the last girl and bad about his wife..

I think he wanted to be caught.  He wasn't going to make it easy but he wasn't going to make it hard, either.

Right? Even i know thats not true and i didnt even go to college...

Ya youd think a cold blooded psychopath could stay clear headed enough to catch that little whiff of bullshit, especially a military professional in a leadership position. Guess not every psycho can be Hannibal Lecter.


For you keeping count at home, the question he asked that Russell needed a lawyer for was EVERY SINGLE QUESTION

ekul Z   HOLY SHEE-ITE!!    That is a word worth knowing, however superfluous it may be, it’s totally interesting none the less.   Can’t wait to have the opportunity to use it in a sentence.  😜.


At the time of this interview, there was a fresh warrant authorizing the search of Williams' home. It  turned up as much irrefutable evidence as any investigator could have needed to put Williams in jail.   This interrogation was valuable then as a means to faster convictions, and is still valuable as a teaching tool now. Thanks for posting this.


Wow Jim, what a fantastic job YOU have done here. Most definitely subscribed.


@Simon Patterson Overtime, time and a half lol

Hopefully he at least got double pay for doing this interview on a Sunday!


There should be a video dedicated to Jim Smith interrogations. JCS does an amazing job analyzing and explaining his techniques.


Showed my dad your vids, he loves em too now. Just sent him this new one :)


That interrogator is outstanding. Clearly the officer was smart to achieve his rank but man he was took to bits

@frodofraggins No, he was ego drunk. The interrogator refusing to respect his rank is what broke his drunk and allowed his conscience to wake back up.

@Eva DeVries not just that.  He wore the same shoes and fell for some things he shouldn't have.  He may have wanted to get caught though.

Frodo, I agree. A "smart" person would never talk without a lawyer...guilty or innocent.

the colonel was cocky and not very smart here.


I’m fucking pissed. I just binge watched all the videos on this channel and now there’s no more. Why cruel world


Detective:What made you tell me tonight? "Mostly to make it easier on my wife". What does that even mean?

they were ripping up her new home.  he was concerned about that, he said.


That interrogation couldn't have been done more impeccably.

@listerone You might get away being intimidating with a kid, but I'd think a confrontational approach with an adult will make it a little more likely they will clam up and demand a lawyer.

I'm mostly impressed with the interrogator's demeanor: calm, cool, and pseudo-supportive.  I think that's more effective than a hard ball approach, or one's that's emotionally charge.

@The Piper Report  Why are you saying thank you to the OP? Did you have anything to do with this interrogation being impeccable? I'm confused.

@ExtremeGamer as if I need to respond to someone who calls themselves extremegaymer and who thinks I'm talking about detective and inseminate

@life is gr8 what impressive and detective? Lol

@Alex Beereye just my 2 cents not gonna spark an argument tho have a good night

The interrogator has so many advantages not to impressive if I'm concerned. Although I do respect every officer that was out there searching car tracks


and never follow your cat into your basement


This is way better than watching a movie


Really great channel! The explanations along with the interrogation is very good!


why is this unlisted? >:( thought it was removed by youtube or something

same, same w the andrew one till he put it back recently


Why does the detective delve further? Is it for research or the courts?

Guy explained as i commented. I won't delete because i feel we gotta be honest during these videos.


I'm a bit fuzzy as to the line between the law and psychology and am tending to think there should be a separation of the two.  Not sure it's a detective's place to be asking why questions.


Youtube stay away from this mans channel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And that's why you should never talk to the police. Or murder people.


is this the same detective we saw in a previous vid? i think the michael rafferty/tori stafford case??

Brent Cullipher yes, it is the same guy.


I feel sorry for this guys kids. They'll never get away with shit


Look at that hairline, like bro what is that

No wonder hes ceazy


I was an air cadet that actually did an intro to leadership course on the Trenton base. It was right around the time this was going down.


In America they detain you in Canada they say you may leave


Just discovered this channel and fascinated by it - great content. I listen to it while working on the kitchen and find myself thinking of more things to bake to keep listening. 👍


As a police officer, looking to become a detective this channel is amazing. Only remark is that I would like more dissection of the interviews, I want to hear more of your personal knowledge! Thanks for sharing your expertise.


I love all those interrogations videos, especially the explanations regarding the techniques the officers are using against the suspects, its going to be very useful for my next crime!


That hour flew by. Fantastic analyze. Thank you for the work you do


This channel keeps me from doing housework. I mean I just cant be bothered vacuuming when sociopaths are being interrogated.

I was literally mopping the floor in my room and i stopped to watch this. Wow

And the view of "reality" is down to the PERCEIVING of this.
Mine is awesome irrespective of another's free will to choose other.
Laying on the divan styles, in the sunshine, on quilted comfort, and the traffic a gentle soothing hum, in background.
Admidst birds and nature noise intermingled with that, and the sunshine, is streaming through, onto my back as I enjoy the Darrell Lea choc covered licorice in  mouth, clothed in my new season winter wear warmers, in love with life itself, whilst penning the journal, as per usual.
No problems not one, nothing other than satisfied with the status quo time, place, date and current affairs.
Gosh it's a glorious day people.
Let us rejoice and be glad in it .

Yes. It seems to suck you into watching.😂

@Trap Lord So It's $1 EVERY MONTH! And I don't know how active he is there.

I'm tempted to check his Patreon content, but I already support two people there and I don't know if I can afford this one.. I'm so conflicted.

IDK why I feel like this channel is going to be seriously helpful for me when I start school in the fall. lol.


I've watched this video multiple times and it still keeps me gripped and in a permanent state of awed fascination watching how Det Jim Smith just breaks the Col like a dry twig in June. It really is a lesson in cutting edge interrogation techniques.


I love these videos!  Jim, could you do a video on the Boston Craigslist killer Phil Markoff?  :)


Wow, the absolute absence of compassion and guilt is absolutely chilling. The way he can detail the rapes and murders without a shred of emotion is disturbing. It feels like a hollow human being.


I just found this channel yesterday and I’m already on my 5th case,  this is the best channel to ever be recommended to me.


Hey Jim love your content. I'm a new subscriber, & also have now joined you on Patreon.

I was hoping you could tell me what video(s) this is a clip from at the very start of the above video, so I can watch it over on Patreon. Thanks, & keep up the great work! Xx


The detective like the colonel I can imagine despite being as professional and experienced as he is, being as mentally anxious stressed thinking "it's extremely important I say and respond with the exact statement so I don't lose" except it was say the exactly correct question instead of an answer. He did an amazing job keeping it going and getting as much of the right info with the opportunity he had.


Holy fuck. This is insane, this guy is a master. I don't know what's scarier, the fact this guy broke a COLONEL in UNDER AN HOUR, or the fact someone could recollect doing these horrible things so calmly.


I know that Jim Smyth knew this guy was guilty from very early on in the piece, getting that first "got a map?" admission must be an INSANE rush. Mega props to his skills.


this might be the first channel id actually wanna support on patreon just for the extra content


John Norman- Best Damn Foot Impression Man In The Business lol


Its so absolutely amazing how they got this man to confess in 1 hour!!!
And I've seen other videos of stupid people and kids who wont admit and fight for hours and some days !

 This investigator is amazing at what he does ...

Sighing quite a lot there Russ, almost like you were afraid of something important. Also, that synchronizing body language was pretty good; I didn't think something so minor can be subconsciously trusting.


Jim has a very soothing voice. I'm not even being interrogated, yet I feel compelled to leave a comment, admitting to the time I took a dollar off my grandmother's dresser...

My grandparents live in Trenton and I remember this case. I can't even look at the base without thinking about it.


This is really interesting, most of your videos don't have the suspect give such a detailed confession


Binge watching JCS and I expect that I would do good in interrogation lol


Jim Smyth - "I'm about to ruin this man's whole career."

One of the few rare times this meme is fully accurate.


The last coffee this man ever had as a free man. I wonder if he ever thinks about how good it tasted.

Whizzy the Elephant Adventures and Memes


Canadian cops say "lawyer" a lot more than US cops do


Jim Smith is amazing. I can imagine him in Starbucks 'can I have a coffee please?' ...'Here you go sir. Ok I confess I cheated in my math exam, stole a candy bar from the local shop, and secretly listen to Justin Bieber'.

Everything can be forgiven but justin bieber? Seriously dude, you need help.


It's funny that at a minute 32:40 or so the tape shows the interrogator mentioning Paul Bernardo.  I know it is somewhat fringe speculation but there are those out there such as the researchers William Ramsey esquire and private investigator Ed Opperman, as well as straight media outlets (below) who point out that Williams and Bernardo attended the same school at the same time.   I don't think it's too crazy of a hypothesis to wonder whether some of these killers are networked such as the Chicago ripper crew's connection with John Wayne Gacy which is a pretty weird circumstance; it's known that there were other killers because Gacy has to solid alibis out of state for two of the killings and burials under his house.

So what I'm getting at with all this is that there's so much left out of sensationalized media narratives with these cases that I don't think anyone just viewing public information that's available, especially public information including police reports and other relevant evidence or generated information to some extent (meaning it is sometimes played down or suppressed by lawenforcment or other officials such as lawyers or judges), has any idea what's really going on with these cases.

For instance just the meager amount of information that Jim Rothstein's, retired NYPD Detective Jim Rothstein brings to the table in regard to the David Berkowitz murders and the Son of Sam case, it's hard to imagine anyone with a brain in their head really thinking that Burkowitz wasn't actually part of an organized group of people committing these murders. But nobody ever hears about that, no one ever hears about Jim Rothstein or about the Process Church of the Final Judgment, no one ever hears about all the dog sacrifices going on in the parks or at the Mason and Zionist Sabbtean millionaire Samuel Untermeyer's estate which served as a ritual area.   All the really interesting stuff that gets left out, while it doesn't paint a completely new picture or necessarily always drastically change a lot of the conclusions about a case, it differently opens up a whole host of new questions and I think it's a pretty disingenuous and suspicious the way these narratives are put out in the media.

So yeah I appreciate the channel though and I love the videos keep up the good work.

I have heard of this case before and I have often wondered why he confessed so quickly. I have a theory that two things factored into his quick confession. 1, the talent of the officers interrogation techniques and 2. He wanted to get caught. He either never intended to kill his last victim and only intended to rape her but it went too far and she died or she recognized him since they had met before. Or there were two sides of him the sailor and the monster. His monster side killed her but there was still a small part of his sailor side left and he wanted to put the monster away for good. That small piece of him that remained knew he would only continue to escalate and if he confessed then no one else would die. Again this is just a theory, I could be totally wrong so don’t come for me. No one knows why hew did those things except him and we will never truly know what motivated him to do these evil things. I’m glad that officer was able to get that confession because had he not this monster would have continued to kill for who knows how long.


"GOTTDAMMIT TELL ME THE TRUTH!" best interrogation technique.

ClaudeSac <br>Lol, wow! It’s pretty clear you’re not all there in your mind.

ClaudeSac
Lol, wow! It’s pretty clear you’re not all there in your mind.

ClaudeSac <br>Lol. There are many people who say “gottdammit”.

ClaudeSac
Lol. There are many people who say “gottdammit”.

We're not in Germany, where they do spell God Gott. Hmkay?


you know they're a good interrogator when you feel interrogated, and you're just watching lmao.


That interogation shows the power of silence. Let the suspect rationalize every possible mistake made, at cover up his crime. The ultimate brainfuck.


Such a horrible man. i feel horrible that these woman had to go this way


Imagine this started for Jessica when she was just working out on her treadmill in her home...totally unsuspecting.


Hi Jim!

Just letting you know that Mr. Williams was stripped of his rank by the Chief of the Defence Staff, so you can (thankfully) actually drop the “Col.” from your title. :)


The Sergeant/Interrogator is top class forsure.  Seems like a very sound and intelligent guy.  If anybody, people like him are the ones that could get away with murder, but thankfully he's on the good side!


23:43
That is an absolutely beautiful picture of that angel !!!!


no one:<br>canadian interrogators: you don't have to be like bernardo

no one:
canadian interrogators: you don't have to be like bernardo


Some people in the comments are saying how it was impressive he was able to do this in a little over an hour but this wasn't in just over an hour, if you look there's a timer and there's some parts that were sped up, this took over 2 and a half hours.


"I taped her mouth, no conversation." Oh, okay


This is the easiest interrogation I’ve ever seen


Finally found channel I enjoy so much. And damn interrogator is on other level..


Okay I’m Canadian and I must ask... WHY DO WE SAY “UH” MORE THAN WE SAY “EHH”?! 😂

I think its kinda of a tactic to be more casual sounding, like you havent planned this line out before and you are thinking off the cuff, when we very well know hes used those same lines before with other interrogations.  We do end with eh alot but usually not in the middle of a line of thought like we do with 'uh' when we are thinking of the next part or a way to word it. Eh is more of a rhetorical question of agreement or an opening to the other person to elaborate, or show understanding....all shortened to a sound.  Get what im saying, eh?


Damn, this was a Master Class on interrogation


I had a cousin in charge of an Airforce Base. I'm not military at all, I addressed him as Cousin Colonel.


I'm so baffled by these people just spilling everything without bothering to ask for a lawyer. I get if they really need to just get it off their chest, but this guy doesn't seem to give 2 shits. Yikes.


I don’t care how great a neighborhood is, keep cameras up, and lock your doors. Psychopaths are real. I’m trying to figure out how this guy managed so many break-ins sheesh. Clear psychopath, didn’t even leave the neighborhood smh


your channel is so great quality. thank you!!


My only question is: What is that patch about?🙍♂


The detective could be a great poker player


He sure started self-soothing after he was hit with the evidence!


He could be Chef Gordon Ramsey’s brother<br> “ where’s the lamb sauce “

He could be Chef Gordon Ramsey’s brother
 “ where’s the lamb sauce “


doesnt he know how disrespectful it is to chew gum while have a conversation with someone?


Plz use a compressor in your master audio rack to reduce the dynamic range between the quiet parts and the loud ones.


for him it's just "i raped her", one emotionless second to say it.  for her it must have felt like a lifetime of panic and fear and pain and things i can't imagine.  i pray for her, i don't know what else to do and i don't often pray for people


As soon as they said he was guilty, I knew he did it.


Damn he got a confession out of him real quick


@CandiGale73 I'm literally not talking about that and you keep on responding to me lol. Idk what you're expecting

andreas johansson seriously dude! <br>I told you I was wrong and you were right! Let it go!!!

andreas johansson seriously dude!
I told you I was wrong and you were right! Let it go!!!

@CandiGale73  literally took me like two minutes to type out lol.

And ive commented on this thread maybe 5 or 6 times. You've commented in this thread 11 times. Who you telling to get a life candi?

andreas johansson dude!! Get a life! Look at how much time you have spent responding, multiple times too. Give it a rest. You’re right! I’m wrong!

Maybe just dont passionately defend things you have zero understanding on if you dont want people to react like this. Grow up lol

@CandiGale73 defensive? Feel that being challenged? Lol okay candi you're not a psychologist remember? Dont put words in my mouth. You dont get to claim to know what you're talking about, perpetuate an argument, and then go "woah bro why r u do defensive?¿? Its just what i beleive!". Your beliefs are invalid in the face of psychology and science lol it really doesnt matter what you believe in. Fact is fact

andreas johansson WTF? You are way too defensive. I was being genuine about who diagnosed him. But, you clearly have taken issue, as if you feel I’m challenging you (I asked a very simple question. No challenged intent). <br>I am coming at this with no background, or knowledge. I am saying what I perceived. You can’t change what I believe to be true no matter how many things you cut and paste and send to me. I’m not changing my first impression, anymore than you will.

@CandiGale73  lol are you a psychologist? You don't need to be one when MANY have analyzed him over the years like any serial killer. He's a psychopath with narcissistic personality disorder and many think he has borderline personality disorder. Obviously he's not going to show emotion like we do. He absolutely does go into excessive detail many times like when he goes on and on excessively about his "projects", his "kill kit", and the breakdown of the murders while he's smiling many times throughout. Hell he bragged so much many of the victims families has to leave the courtroom lol. Heres a TINY snippet.

"If you've read much about serial killers, they go through what they call different phases. In the trolling stage, basically, you're looking for a victim at that time. You can be trolling for months or years, but once you lock in on a certain person, you become a stalker," he said.
He then explained how the victim selection occurred: "There might be several of them, but you really hone in on one person. They basically become the [...] victim. Or, at least that's what you want it to be.."

He goes on forever. He is very clearly getting off on telling the world how "good" of a serial killer he is. He's too narcissistic not too and his own daughter confirms all of this in her book. Also he doesn't live in isolation and NEVER did. He raised a family, worked a steady job, was relatively well liked/known by his coworkers, and to this day he is one of the most prolific letter writers in American serial killer history and kerri rawson herself had to stop writing to him because he wouldn't stop bragging. You have a fundamental misunderstanding of BTK

andreas johansson if he reads his crimes like a grocery list, where is his excitement? Last time I read mine, I wasn’t experiencing excitement. You want to see someone who is enjoying their crimes, go watch Bundy’s interview several hours before he is executed. This man lives in isolation with his perversion. He knows most will be repelled. <br>Are you a psychologist for diagnosing Williams, or did another diagnosis him?

@CandiGale73 ???? That's 100% false. Of course hes to the point and matter of fact. He's a psychopath with BPD. He's also literally smiling many times during his confession as he reads his crimes like a grocery list. He ABSOLUTELY was bragging in the exact same way many other killers do. To the point, dead eyed, and brutal. Kerry rawsons own letters with her father confirms this. He was literally excited for his confession

andreas johansson He’s very simplistic in the details, hesitant. He isn’t going on and on about the crimes. He answers the questions, and provides to-the-point descriptions. People who brag and/or relive their crimes, go in to finite detail, as if they are getting off by it. I listened to his confession several times. IMO, he would be much happier back at his home to look at the women’s garments, and take photos of himself wearing them. ✌

@J Solo by reliving his crimes through confession. Extremely common with serial killlers

Rajeev Mohan depends on what type of hug you are offering me??? 😉

@Hermz he is. Psychopaths love reliving their crimes. BTK is the exact same in his confession

nardinit you’re wrong. Are you saying that if you perceive something one way, and another person sees it opposite, that only one can be right?  How does that work in the real world for you?

@CandiGale73 I'm sorry but your notion that all opinions are equally valid is simply not true.

@CandiGale73 if it is the evaluation part that you argue about. Yeah I mentioned my personal evaluation vs the evaluation other people did :) I didn't mean to sound like it is bad for other people to evaluate. I just think their evaluation is off and mine is more accurate

@CandiGale73 I am not sure if i can follow you're argument. Me mentioning that I "think" that my evaluation is right is pointing out that it is just my opinion. I didn't say that he "is", just that I think that. So its my opinion against other peoples' opinion.

mq bq your entire comment was “I think.”  How is that not evaluating someone? I’m sure most of us aren’t psychologists, and are only stating our opinions too - aka “I think.”<br>You can split hairs over evaluate versus observe, but if you’re not a shrink, to observe or evaluate, your opinion is as valid as the next person’s. ✌

@CandiGale73 no you are absolutely right :) i hope I showed that it is my opinion. Maybe I am wrong, maybe  people see him differently. One of us has to be wrong and maybe I am. Just my opiniom that I see him more like that.

mq bq no offense, but everything you have written here is exactly what you accused others of - evaluate

I dont understand people who evaluate him like this. I think it is clear to see that this guy knew what he was doing was wrong and I think he knows morals. He had sexual fantasies that included rape and hurting someone and he gave into it. I dont think he took pleasure in killing them but was completely willing to do so to cover up. The sexual part was what drove him and even though he knew how wrong it was he didn't stop. Since it happened so late in his life I assume he was struggling with his deviant fantasies for a while before giving in. He also shows that he actually cares for his wife trying not to put stress on her. I think this guy has horrible sexual fantasies/instincts, found a wife he loved and had a moral code, but acted knowingly against his morals when he killed those innocent women.

CandiGale73 agreed. He was not bragging at all. As he put it himself, he saw it was “all wide open” at that point, so there was no reason to even try to lie.

CandiGale73 I was just agreeing with you.

Mr. JC you’re fine. I wasn’t responding to you. Note the original poster’s name - it’s at the beginning of my comment. I know these comment sections can be confusing sometimes. ✌

CandiGale73 I think I agree with your assessment. He’s not proud of it.

AtheistOnTheEdge I respectfully disagree. When asked why these things happen, he says he doesn’t know, and it wouldn’t matter. He did the arm folding, and silent treatment. If he was bragging, we would know why he did this. IMO, he knows why, but does not want to get in to his reasons because they probably cause him embarrassment. IMO, of course. ✌


What an evil bastard this guy is. Can’t imagine what Jessica’s family were going through when they heard what she endured that day. Special place in hell reserved for this man.


A true psychopath won’t break or bend under interrogation . Would have been smart enough to ask for a lawyer and would have left when the cop said you’re free to go.  Don’t throw that word around so loosely.

yes, or like Bundy, would represent himself


This man is so disgusting and yet calm...I can not believe such exist. He calmly said he strangled and bound her and then left for the base because he had to fly early the next morning? <br>How dare you, you took someone’s life and you have the audacity to go about your own like nothing happened. Disgusting.

The cold-bloodedness in this guy was probably not enough to alleviate inner thoughts that someday some of his sick and demented photos will be out for the public to see.


Wow, the way Russell calmly describes his horrible acts is truly chilling.  A real psychopath.


I’d bet $50 his wife knew something. Not everything, but she knew he had some sketchyyy kinks. Theres no way he did so much without showing his wife anything telling over the years.


And than this man turns down offers that could make him a very wealthy man, his integrity is that of a dang saint! No blood money being generated by this MAN! They don't make them like this very often. Just when I thought I couldn't love him any more!


genius way to bring traffic to your Patreon page!


1:05:27 when you think it can’t get any worse


He both believed a shoe and tire print are the same as fingerprints AND got called smart within the same conversation.  Amazing

@Dave Skeet I know...it narrows the field. That doesn't make them as unique as fingerprints as they even said in the video


i want to see all the full videos from the intro
