The Trial of Pam Smart

Hope you enjoy guys! Back to 1990!

The Trial of Pam Smart

Comments

Well she didn’t just hire those teens, she manipulated them all and having a statutory rape relationship with a minor is disgusting, she should get extra time for that.

Rose Tyler

I, too, am one of the old folks that enjoy watching true crime and the way Mike presents the cases. I'm truly quite curious how Mike missed the mark (taking into considering that what's presented is a condensed ~30 minute overview) and why the presenter's age would be a factor? If this discussion was had in Youtube's comment section, I would appreciate you pointing me towards this thread.

CRD Loves Tea

Despite how depraved she turned out to be, as a metalhead I reckon it'd be interesting to hear her college radio show!

Geeez, Jacquie Poier, you actually pay money for That Chapter in order to come in here with some alcoholic sounding boomer passive aggression, please take this crap back to youtube comments.

What did he miss?

Really was hilarious to watch such a young kid attempt to portray an epic murder plot from back in the day. Yet, not. Good effort but given your youth, you missed the mark my boy. Like us old folks, you youngsters don't quite understand....the..story. Good try though lad. I love your work Mike but, missed the mark on this one.

Jacquie Poier

That soft Epstein fade in and out with Dershowitz was something else. And I missed it the first time around!

Hill

Statutory rape I agree but it's called grooming now and if it was a male teacher and a girl I think the attitude would be different even back then even though it would still be statutory rape.

Redz 71

Does everyone on the stand share that one paper cup of water?!

Linderman Edgewater

You're killing me with the one liners in this one! Great episode, as always!

Laura Jane

Yeah, To Die For is a great movie (Nicole Kidman and Joaquin Phoenix as "Pam" and "Billy", respectively). Most of it is a straight adaptation but there's also a mockumentary/true-crime satire element

gethaunted

No worries. I think we both agree it is a horrible case. ❤️

Catherine DeWitt

Oooh this is one of my favourite (...? not the right word) cases that happened when I was a kid and really got me into true crime. To Die For is a highly recommended Gus Van Sant movie inspired by the case and is fantastic.

Lauren Lovecraft

I’m not sure I see it as rape, statutory rape yes,total manipulation of a young mind yes. What she did was wrong 100%.

Halie Gail

I was asking, I wasn’t assuming, I should’ve worded it differently.. my apologies for that.

Halie Gail

Cannot agree more..the word “smart” does not belong to this one

Elsa Abeniacar

Never underestimate the power a an earring an axe combo

Kellie

"Come on Bucko!"

Carolyne S.

That was a fictional one loosely based on the case. There was an earlier one with Helen Hunt that was all about Pam and the boys.

Carolyne S.

There was a movie made Mike, Helen Hunt starred as Pam Smart. Also a movie *based* on the case but was fictional starring Nicole Kidman was made called "To Die For"

Carolyne S.

Excellent episode Mike! I really appreciated the quality of this one.

Jade Westgrave

Well done mate 👍🏾

Minister Elana C Henderson

I remember this when it happened. Yup I'm that old.

Carolyne S.

Love your videos. Please look into the Bricca murders....I know it’s old but it is fascinating.

Susan kohl

I had to close the Patreon app and open it again a few times before the video popped up. Hope this helps you.

Soffity

Gosh, I don't believe that Pam should still be in such inhumane conditions whether or not she was the ultimate mastermind. If the trigger-man and aspiring hitman can be rehabilitated, so could a dedicated public servant who lost her husband.

Payton Smith

I was a teenager in the 80's, now that's a decade to be remembered. The clothes and music were off the charts 🎶📴🤣

Redz 71

The fact that she raped a child hasn't crossed your mind??? 🤦‍♀️

Redz 71

Happy Belated Birthday Jayd 🎂🎉

Redz 71

Those new glasses bring out the blue in your eyes. 1990 I presume was the year you were born Mike, making it a great year 🎉🎂🤓

Redz 71

There was a great movie with Nicole Kidman based on this case- worth a goo.

Motherofhens

Those new glasses looks great. Excellent choice.

Bjarnehall .

Can’t seem to see the video.

Claire

Nicole Kidman is great in this

Dale Bower

Oh Pam 🤦🏻‍♀️ you gave the term ‘cougar’ a bad name 😂🤣😂 thnx for the blast from the past!

Andrea

It feels like only yesterday you brightened up a Wet Monday in the NE of Scotland with the last Patreon only. Yet here I am on this ‘Ole Friday Eve. Settling down with 🐕olive at my side to watch this. Let’s get in into it

I can leave a comment but can’t pull up the video. Anyone know why that might be?

Marty Murphy

Buncha freaking bumblefucks. I hope they haven't reproduced.

Alicia Hoverson

The Stephen King reference made my day!

DEADisBEAUTIFUL .

Fantastic choice with the glasses. They fit and compliment your face excellently! Most impressive.

James A Patterson

I didn't say it's right for them to walk free. I'm wondering how you got that from what I wrote.

Catherine DeWitt

The new glasses look good mike! Also, I was 9 in 1990 and got to really grow up in that era.. and it was, hands down, the greatest time frame. There was so much going on culturally and with music, I still miss the 90s today. I’ve always said, I’d never want to be a kid again.. but I would if I could relive the 90s

Oh, she’s a piece of work man!

Thank you Catherine, that’s very kind of you! <3

Jayd Valentine

🤭 Thanks, Mike! (Totally not fan-girling AT ALL I swear!) Ah then it really was a great year! Video was awesome as always - what a scandalous case that was.. Jesus Christ! Have a great evening :)

Jayd Valentine

So you think it’s right for them to walk free as she sit in there? I think she’s 100% guilty but the sentence is not fair.

Halie Gail

Many happy returns! 🎉🎁🎈🎂

Catherine DeWitt

I'm not sure it's fair to compare one case against another. She ruined so many people's lives with her sinister actions. She's guilty, no matter how much she protests. I am the same age as Pam and remember vividly paying close attention to the case, without letting the media circus cloud my judgement. (I agree with you about our Mike's specs. They look terrific. 🍀🌲❤️)

Catherine DeWitt

Spoiler, a bit. The left hand/right hand thing is silly. I shoot every Sunday, so this is from experience; if you are holding a pistol with both hands, it would be easy to use either your right or left pointer finger (or trigger finger, you might say) to pull said trigger. Bill is clearly not lying on the stand when he describes the shooting. Besides, those three fellas would have a hard time organizing a camping trip, let alone a murder. Not so bright, as I see it.

Catherine DeWitt

Grown ass adults don’t “have an affair” with a 15 year old kid. That’s called rape. Why was nothing even mentioned about that? She is gross. Cheers for the 4am drops but, not being able to sleep does have its merits occasionally. You’re the best!

Charlene Morris

Awwww, an oldie but a goodie! This case is 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦 Thanks Mike!

Sash Johnson

I was, and happy birthday Jayd!! 🎂

That Chapter

This case is amazing. I haven't watched Mike's video yet, so I hope I'm not repeating anything, but the movie To Die For is based on this case. It's stellar. Buck Henry is the best.

Catherine DeWitt

Love the new glasses!!

Halie Gail

So glad you covered this one.. I didn’t think she should’ve gotten life without, there are child killers that don’t get that harsh a sentence. Not to mention the media coverage was absolutely off the charts bias..

Halie Gail

Your name is the greatest!! 😂

Juril Ducusin

Yay! Was literally just binging your old videos when you posted. Also it was a great year.. because I was born haha and I’m guessing the wink means you were too? It’s actually my birthday today so a new That Chapter video is the icing on the cake! Thank you, Mike! <3

Jayd Valentine

Hey Mike!! Thanks again for brightening my week!

Juril Ducusin

Lovely! Thanks, Mike 😘
