The Case of Grace Millane
Added 2021-03-29 14:29:19 +0000 UTCHappy week start!? Yeah that's the one. Hope you enjoy this video, if thats the right word as its quite tragic. Crazy CCTV footage though. Also enjoy my NZ accent, it's pretty bad.

Thanks for covering Grace the way she deserved, Mike. I was appalled at the amount of slut-shaming, & victim blaming in the media at the time, & it was completely overblown. Besides, she could have been as hardcore as she wanted, because nobody consents to be murdered. He's an evil POS, with a POS defence (just call the police if it truly was an 'accident'...GTFO lying twat). I'm just glad he's off the streets, he can't hurt anyone else & his name is out there. After this case, I completely re-examined how I approached internet dating, which we should all do, if we're using it, & that's a good thing...it's just a shame Grace's life had to be taken in order for it to become clearer. You just don't KNOW who's out there, pretending to be normal. Take care out there guys. Xx

2021-05-04 03:52:14 +0000 UTCI sometimes wonder what people like this were like as kids. Because no one goes from no killing to all of a sudden turning into a killer. I will never understand why people are made like this, and why they don't get help before they succumb to murderous thoughts. BTW Mike, I don't always write notes on here, but I always click on your videos!

2021-04-02 14:32:50 +0000 UTCI absolutely love all your expressions! That was a new version of the same story. "Oh, I didn't kill my wife. I love her." Oh, my gf??

2021-03-31 15:26:25 +0000 UTCThat was the best accent I've seen to date from Mike. Love to hear him try different accents always gives a good laugh

2021-03-31 14:54:03 +0000 UTCWow 😳 && I love your Aussie accent can you do a full American accent ?? LOL
Amanda Glenn
2021-03-31 12:05:00 +0000 UTCWhat a fuckwad and he even had the nerve to mouth off at the Judge after his sentencing!! It was sad to hear that Grace's dad had died before the end of the trial but heartwarming to think that him and Grace are now together again. RIP to them both 🌺 and thank you Mike for your brilliant channel....it's the best one out there x

2021-03-31 07:11:06 +0000 UTClol.....me too 😁

2021-03-31 07:04:47 +0000 UTCI’m impressed with your pronunciation of Aotearoa Mike! The NZ accent could do with some work though 🤣. This was such a tragic case to watch unfold. He is a real piece of shit! Wish our legal system was a lot harsher towards people like this. Great covering of the case, thank you!

2021-03-30 22:49:31 +0000 UTCG'day Tim! Good ole Christchurch here 😎👍
Laurie B
2021-03-30 22:46:57 +0000 UTCCheers Mike. What a douche this guy is. He was so like chilled after killing that kill, either he'd lost his mind at that point or maybe there's more out there! NZ is safer with this guy behind bars.
Jack McCauley
2021-03-30 20:02:07 +0000 UTCIt was hard listening to this piece of shit's lies. The quivering, sniveling, pathetic, little lying voice. Fuck this guy. After finding him guilty they should have just taken him out back from the courtyard and shot him

2021-03-30 13:33:48 +0000 UTCMan, the folks you cover are all bastards... but this Jesse fucker has got to be the most bastardly bastard of the bunch. What (as you rightly put it) a sad sack of shit.

2021-03-30 12:28:31 +0000 UTCYou did a Stella job on it mike!! 😍So so excited to see this come up yesterday. I saved it for a scan I was having this morning it was soooo hard!! (they always make me super nervous but it flew by! )Your nz accent OMG hilarious it was 100% Aussie 😂. What’s up with everyone in Hamilton being a TC Patreon??... I think half the town is here, me included!
Tara Ellingham
2021-03-30 10:47:45 +0000 UTCOMG I don't think any of your videos has got me so angry like this one Mike, I'd never heard of the case before, I think seeing all the cctv of him just made my blood boil, what an utter piece of shite, that poor girl :(
Tracy Walker
2021-03-30 08:44:43 +0000 UTCThis was just sad and senseless. Great job Mike, AGAIN.. We appreciate your commitment and hard work to this channel and industry. Nice job on the accent 😉
jennifer h
2021-03-30 08:43:46 +0000 UTCIt was great that the Prime Minister Ms Arden spoke on her behalf. Due to heinous of this crime and his previous offences, that even though he was given a minimum sentence where he could technically be released, he will be incarcerated for life. The parole board will never let him out given all this.

2021-03-30 06:28:47 +0000 UTCI am from Auckland New Zealand myself. This story was massive. And so incredibly horrible and sad. Wonderful coverage as always Mike, thank you good sir. And we NEVER get sick of LOTR references :-)
Gareth Price
2021-03-30 05:38:27 +0000 UTCThe death penalty is not a deterrent to murderers. This has been shown time and time again. It’s a good bargaining tool when the body has yet to be found etc but it doesn’t stop people killing.
Soffity
2021-03-30 05:34:38 +0000 UTCI realise everyone has a right to a good defence but it doesn’t seem right the defence lawyers can say what they like about the poor victim while the prosecution has to prove the case. Like Jodi Arias saying Travis was a pedophile when there was not a single shred of evidence this was so. This beautiful young Grace gets her character dragged thru the mud and she is the victim here.

2021-03-30 04:58:57 +0000 UTCBut when Covid lets up, I issue an invite for everyone to come visit New Zealand! We're a nice bunch. That shithead is the exception that proves the rule. LOTR references - we're surprised that people from other countries still mention it, haha. I know friends who used to swear that the two druids standing at the entrance to the waterfall in the first movie actually exists in real life, lol (apologies, don't know my Lord of the Rings from my arse)
Nikki Ganley
2021-03-30 04:03:12 +0000 UTCEXCELLENT job on pronouncing Aotearoa and Waitakere! Reinga... er, moving on lol. I've seen a copy of the CCTV footage, and people were revolted by his behaviour at the bar where they kissed. She went off to the Ladies, leaving her handbag behind, and the prick RIFLED THROUGH her handbag, pulled out her purse, pulled out her money - but put it back. Maybe he planned to rob her later. He'll spend more than 17 years in jail because a shit like that will never admit his guilt, which one must do to qualify for parole. Plus he'll to do anger management and anti-violence courses, and he'll refuse to do that. The psychologist's report won't help him either. NZ has strict name supression rules which are out of touch with other countries. Even though NZ reporters couldn't identify him, the UK press did, so NZers could just google 'Grace Millane UK' and get his name. Dunno if it's a NZ thing, but Grace's case is the third high profile sex-related trial I know of where the women are excoriated and humiliated by the defence, and the judges seem to let them. So that had better change.

2021-03-30 03:59:23 +0000 UTCThat wink tho.
Kyle Leonard
2021-03-30 03:40:27 +0000 UTCHe did use a butcher's knife in an assault on his live in gf at the time but the coroner's report doesn't mention any cuts or anything. I need to know why that room lit up like that when in the crime scene photos the bed linens are pristine white and the report said this : A pathologist who explained how she died told a jury she was strangled and had bruises on her arms and chest "consistent" with being pinned down. Dr Simon Stables said considerable force would have been required, and the pressure on her neck must have lasted between four and five minutes to be enough to kill her.

Matt Lee
2021-03-30 00:45:09 +0000 UTCOn his YouTube channel, I click on "Videos" and order from "older to newer". They always appear in the same order so I know if I have watched it if the status bar is red. Hope this helps.
Maureen Newey
2021-03-29 23:46:29 +0000 UTCHow do you do that (watch from the beginning)? I alligned them "from older to newer", but I feel that I'm not seeing all of them, since there is a large number of days between each other...

2021-03-29 21:28:46 +0000 UTCI was wondering how the luminol was set off so badly in a strangling case too. But I’m thinking that maybe this creep was probably also using a knife in his deadly bondage.
Rachel K.
2021-03-29 21:22:17 +0000 UTCGreat video Mike. The tearing apart of Grace’s character was horrific in this trial. Just to try and get some sympathy for a monster like him! Let’s hope he gets denied parole when it comes up and stays locked up where he belongs!
Thalia Brown
2021-03-29 21:08:18 +0000 UTCObviously murderers are not good guys, but this POS really scrapes the bottom of the sewer. Seventeen years is not enough, seventy would be a lot better.
Sahramon
2021-03-29 21:07:15 +0000 UTCI agree with you Lisa. Murder is murder and this piece of crap should receive the death sentence. If they don’t reinstate the death sentence then these kind of killings of women will never end. I have a feeling that he won’t make 17 years. In jail pedophiles and rapists are given “special treatment”. He looks like an arrogant asshole so he’ll most likely be murdered in jail. Hope so.

2021-03-29 20:51:30 +0000 UTCGreat show Mike. Nice to watch it a few days early. The footage is so well planned and you put these shows together with great care and concern for the piece of shite that murdered poor Grace. Thank you for another great show. You Rock!

2021-03-29 20:47:54 +0000 UTCAlso, arrgh! I looked away at the wrong time and missed the wink. Of course, I watched the whole video again. 🍀

Lisa B
2021-03-29 20:21:18 +0000 UTCNZ sentencing is annoying (speaking as a NZer), but like other countries 17yrs is when he can apply for parole, not the entirety of his sentence - I whole heartedly agree it isn’t enough but given the psychologist report and multiple convictions, it is likely that when he applies for parole he will get a preventative detention sentence applied which means unless he somehow gets deemed ‘safe’ (unlikely) he will not be getting out in 17 years or for a long time after that.
Tanith Gordon
2021-03-29 20:19:02 +0000 UTCThanks, Mike!

2021-03-29 20:18:12 +0000 UTCA whole 17 years and then he can be released to attack someone else? Disgusting.
Lisa Henkel
2021-03-29 20:00:39 +0000 UTCAnother Hamilton NZ member here! You did stumble a little on the end of Aotearoa, but you said Cape Reinga more accurately than 99.9% of NZers do! Mate, I have to say, your accent was a dead ringer ... for Australia 😂. This case is so sad, and I can confirm that the entire country wanted this guy named and put away. The victim blaming in this trial was infuriating. Poor Grace. I also agree with my fellow Hamilton NZ person above, NZ is beautiful everywhere, but the South Island is definitely prettier! Also, you had it right the first time ... Wellingtonian. It is both weirdly exciting, and disheartening, to see NZ in one of your videos. I promise, we are actually usually lovely to tourists. That said, fuck Auckland, my daughter was mugged there during the level 3 lockdown last year. No one except Aucklanders like it ... and even then it isn’t all of them 😂😂 (perhaps a little provincial rivalry and bias, but still, fuck Auckland).

2021-03-29 18:01:53 +0000 UTCAmazing that every dumbass move this clown took was caught on cctv. I'll never understand why people purchase things to assist them in the murder or the aftermath in places they know there's cameras. Also if it was an accidental death during bondage, what's with all the blood and footprints in blood??

2021-03-29 15:57:58 +0000 UTCHe is awesome!!! I truly enjoy his videos. Some people do not like the humor and they want seriousness all the time, but it’s not like he’s disrespecting the victim he shows empathy to the victim and their families but he really digs into the bad guys. This is such a morbid topic and sometimes to keep from crying you need a little laughter.
