Man Gets Life In Prison For Murder of Woman Who Mistook His Car For An Uber
The title is a little misleading for me. Before opening the video, I thought the driver may have reacted from having a stranger enter his car which lead to him killing this stranger. Once you watch the video, you find out the real story. This is horrible.
Oh my…I cannot even imagine the pain they must be enduring!! Lord please be the comfort this family needs always!!!!
This the world we live in 🤷. Take a lot more to surprise me now
Why do I see so many African Americans in the News?
Just horrible man 😩😩
“Yea, also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to the dead.” – Holy Bible
Serial killers should die the way they killed there victims and the punishment should be done by the family members.
This dudes don’t care about been in prison they only fear a painful death only then we’ll they stop
Good this is a Miserable 😖 place to live how could say I live a good life with all this madness my Lord🥺🥺🥺😖😖😖😣😣😣😣😣
He looked surprised when they read the verdict.
Hope he’s not surprised in his cell when Bubba… well, use your imagination.
Is he going to fashion prison?
As a white liberal, this is the work of white supremacist. He killed her because she probably voted trump or something so he felt threatened and had to. He was in fear of his life and his black life matter more than those trumpers white supremacist. He should not go to jail because he black as we white owe them everything. It them white supremacist fault that this happened. He innocent okay?? We white liberal sympathize with that man because he feared for his life and had to do such self defense action toward them white supremacist.
Bro wtf is going on
Riders need to confirm there own name. The drivers have to protect themselves as well from randoms just looking for a free ride and for the drivers Own Safety. The rider has multiple ways of verification. #ProtectTheDrivers
Good for him.
racists
Mad man
YouTube thugs behind the badge PT 1- 5
YouTube when the truth cannot be bought
I’ve gotten in a car in a very bad part of Dayton Ohio and luckily for me he just laughed and said nah I ain’t your ride and I got out after a few nervous bits of laughter and jokes…I learned to be much more observant of my surroundings and then some…
What he did was reprehensible, but let this be a lesson–ALWAYS CHECK THE CAR BEFORE ENTERING.
Yeah well when people get drunk and call a ride their not going to do all that just get rid of uber and call a taxi
Life ain’t good enough for some people…he’s 1 of them 😢. God bless this young lady’s soul and console her family & friends.
Wtf
Man somethings just be too crazy to even try to understand. Your just a sick person to do something like this.
Why’s the father reading his feelings om the paper? He has to right it?
BLM NO where to be found,
Lol doesn’t feed there narrative 🤣
Humanity is trash
In Russia they would have gave that shitstain the death penalty.
Take him out of his misery now!
Just a complete monster, karma is a biatchhh, shanking is real!!!
🤒
Sad condolences to family .
This is why we need industrial-sized blenders set at medium speed while slowly lowering subhuman pos into it, feet first. 🤦🏿👎🏿👎🏿Disgrace! My condolences to the victim’s family. May she rest in peace.
Praying for her family
I carry a buck knife and pepper spray whenever i get into an Uber/Lyft. No way is some murdering ugly mug taking me out easy
We need to seriously change our justice system. She gets killed and he gets to live on our tax dollars !! It makes no sense!
RIP
Horrible
Why murder someone..
why does a person get out of it?
I will never understand these pieces of 💩…
Of course it’s a black person but BLM won’t say nothing about this.
Public hanging anyone?
So he was not on the uber app and did not work for uber? They explained this horribly. Very sad though.
Why doesn’t are justice system euthanize all criminals?
I just ask this man one thing….why ????
Wow, YouTubes bot actually deletes negative comments about this guy… I guess they hold him in high regard
Rightful Justice is served.. now let him deal with his new found neighbors in no mans land he will have the rest of his life to watch his back for his deeds.. my it be no quick or easy.. .. may he live for the next 40 years paying long and hard for hers last 40 minutes..
Sick piece of crap y the he’ll did he do this ?! Wat is going on in our country. It’s insane
Unbelievable.
Prayers to the innocent… condemnation to the cowardly. Watch after one another, please.
Death penalty would have been better.
Death penalty to the criminal
The sentence is Bull sh$&@ same should be done to him and other murderers
I would’ve done the same. I hate Uber to the point where I’m willing to scare Uber passengers from ever taking Uber again. Yee Haw!!!!
Guess who it is again…
She was way too drunk to even look at her phone to verify anything
The problem with this is, a lot of times the Uber and left drivers lie about the make and model of their cars. They do it so they can get hired right away. I have it happen to me on 3 different occasions the car was a different color and make and model also.
🙏🏽
Dont get in the wrong car. Lesson learned.
That guy had to be a simulation what a moron who murders somebody and gets nothing. What a moron for real and ruining it for other Uber drivers
So now tax payer will be paying for the rest of he’s stinking life ..why just not put him to sleep and save money
BLM stand up for your criminals!
You tube deleted my comment…
When you take a life, your life should be taken also. Not life in prison..
Good
BLM gunna THUG!
That was my biggest fear taking uber for the first time …i open the door and askes questions before getting in and they called me by my name so i got in ..
My condolences to the family and friends. Can’t even begin to imagine the emotions they must be dealing with.
BLM
This is sad 🥺😞🥀 but do you all know what is even more sad many people die and leave this world 🌍 without the savior Who is Jesus. No one knows More pain than God who created us all in this world but people choose to live without him. God has never forced people to believe in him but he did reveal himself to the world 🌎. He revealed himself through his Son Jesus who came into our broken world as a light in the darkness. Jesus has taught the people about the Kingdom of God and how he is the only way to get there. Some people believed in his message but others just lived their lives not knowing how much they need the grace of God. My friends our life is a vapor that appears only for a little while than we vanish away and Know one can find us. There is a reason why mankind lives are on the clock ⏰ 24 hour’s everyday because God is giving you a chance to repent and get saved because he is merciful and full of compassion that he desire none to perish but for all to repent and believe in the Gospel 1 Corinthians 15 and what his Son Jesus has done for us. My friends you never know when your last day on earth will be but I would encourage you seek the LORD while he can be found Jesus is not that far from any of us it’s all a matter of humbling yourself before God and ask him to show you that he is there ask him to forgive you of your sins and help you live a life that is pleasing to him. Jesus came so that dead people can live forever in Heaven. He gave himself for our sins and was raised for our justification and all it takes is for you child of man to repent and believe in the Gospel 1 Corinthians 15 from the Heart and call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved. It is by faith in JESUS that you can be saved.
I still don’t understand why these creatures only get life which is much better than they did for their victim.
How much money is going to be spent on him for the rest of his life that could go towards schools for children vocational training for illiterate adults homeless and medical for seniors.-.
Instead this disgusting foul vile creature is going to be Clothed, fed, housed and get medical for the rest of his life this is one sick justice system with twisted deranged people that support the system
Black man pretends to be Uber and kills white woman.
Would’ve brought up the race nbc if the tables were turned
Why does god let sh** like this happen? Smfh😞
Two wrongs don’t make a right
Is this really justice? This is why i like some of those countries where justice for murder is real justice
May the wolves in prison feed upon his soul just a viciously as he attacked this innocent lady.
What in the mental illness is going on here?? This is just insane! Our country is overwhelmed with mentally ill sick people.. on Facebook there is a news article from Scott County Minnesota about a man who chops off his girlfriend’s head at a red light in the middle of the street in the middle of the day in front of many people who took out there phones and recorded him chopping at the neck to sever her head from her shoulders all because she wanted to break up with him!! What in the world is going on!! 😥😥😥my heart is so broken…it’s just way too much😔😔😔
It’s beyond wicked out
Another white Trump supporter killing innocents. I hope Nancy will get to the bottom of this with more hearings.
What a demon 😈
This is why robo taxi will eliminate Uber and lyft
I don’t know why that girl tried to steal his car and now she got shot for the consequence!
She was not a smart lady.
Premeditated murder he planned that out what a monster
This is why White people rushed out of Detroit when the Blacks started living there
anime cringe
How fn sick can someone be to do do a sick evil act, did she deserve to die like this?
Smh people still gonna be getting in the wrong Ubers
I’m a bit confused how she mistook him for her driver.
I mean don’t uber drivers normally announce themselves rather than just pull up nearby?
Regardless it was very sick of him to do that.
How about the Death penalty?
SO HELP ME UNDERSTAND. WHEN YPU ORDER UBER. THEY DO SHOW YOU A CLESR PICTURE OF THE CAR PICKING YOU UP RIGHT? SO YOURE TELLN ME THERE WERE 2 IDENTICAL CARS S3NT & SHE ACCIDENTALLY HOPED IN?
Pointless. Ladies be careful
Clear cut racist crime against white people.
Title is wrong again
