0:00 [Music] a colorado man who killed his wife and staged it to look like an accident was uh found guilty of a murder and the funny part is he used his dead wife's life insurance policy to pay for his defense lawyer oh ████ is that legal that's ████ i don't know if that's going to be legal well it is because uh he's paying for it he's paying for it while he's defending himself from being guilty of her murder that's so he's not proven yet yeah not yet but once he is proven then he has to pay that money back i think yeah if he's proven he's gone but i mean it is the heist it's kind of a hack what was the scheme yeah how do you do it basically his wife catches him cheating it's johnny depp it's an unrelated that's an ad

0:50 hey we should talk about that that one was adriana's insurance it's um so what happens is uh this guy gets confronted by his wife she's like converting about cheating he kills her as you know usually supposed to yeah she knows too much you know as you do and he chokes her out in the i guess like in the it makes it look like she slipped in the shower with ████ fingerprints right here yeah this fingerprint marks on her neck you're right right it's so like it took sucks yeah he's freaking super sucks but the crazy thing is even though the family was like this must drive you nuts if this is you but like they were so convinced he killed her but they couldn't find um an autopsy person a forensics expert that was willing to say that it was

1:42 strangulation versus what was the other cause of death slipping in the shower the old classic whoopsie days what but there's no blunt force or anything that was that's the thing it's like it's like uh he made it look like because he slammed her head yeah she slammed her ████ is he like powerful or something in this neighborhood where no one else is a regular ████ guy where is this easy denver denver what the ████ wait so then how would they know that he choked her then if noah would say that she why are people trying to hide this three years later they found they found um an expert who was willing to testify that that's what he thought it was whoa wait why did they not want to say that's the cause i think like a lot of the time if you're not a hundred percent sure um you're kind of putting your career on the line like oh you know that's true most people like if it

2:33 looked like majority of the crime scene was a slip and fall then they're gonna be like oh it's a classic slip and fall yeah i don't know that's so interesting yeah so it took three years for them to find that even in that community where you expect it to be objective and be like yeah let's just look at everything and see what the info says even in that community people are still like well i'm not gonna say it yeah and i think that's a very overlooked thing is like a lot of people don't understand that those are also careers like those are careers that they don't want to lose either so they're not just gonna go on your hunch you know and it took them forever when they did find that person they opened that investigation up and they found yeah who accused them of killing again uh her family so her family was like i don't trust this problem just ████ new yeah i knew like she's not a clumsy ████ three years of having to deal with that yeah oh my god and i think and on top of that they're like there's no way this ████

3:23 was gonna ████ slip because she had all of those sticky things on her bathtub mm-hmm she had handles everywhere in that bag yet the handles and the sticky things on the bottom and then she's like come on and she has size 12 feet baby just three years of like you're hanging out like eating you're like there's just no way she felt bro every day you think about that ████ the crazy thing is this murder actually happened in 2015. it wasn't until 2018 that they were able to charge him and it wasn't until now that they found him guilty so it took ████ forever and that's why he already has the payout he has [Music] i would have thought i was in the clear

4:13 hell dude yeah you're scot-free they have kids yeah they have kids if you're smart they don't say the age but they look like they're literally yeah they're babies they're gonna grow up and be like ████ you dad i bet the corner probably was like yeah it's standard slip and fall i'm not gonna look at it yeah we'll just say yeah that's what it is signed off on it is so disturbing yeah how much that's probably really happened in the day-to-day like people get jaded and ████ you know like they just like yeah whatever i've seen this so many times before there he is eric estrada himself threat to pier wow damn bro dude just take the l if she catches you cheating bro for real why you gotta why are you choking out like judging by the rest of his ████ behavior he probably

5:03 just saw the um the child support and spousal support he'd have to pay and was just like no i'm ████ kill her know because if he's willing to like spend her life insurance money on his defense case then yeah this guy is probably seeing dollar bills and everything he does that's ████ up super s█████ give him give him uh the death penalty immediately i think every day what they have to do is take um a little notch it's not even a full centimeter you know you get a ruler and you get a small notch and you razor blade a piece of his dick i like jelly it goes all the way oh that's tired yeah every day like garlic yeah fine garlic add a you just slice one piece like a jersey mike's meat slicer exactly

5:53 and if you make too thick of a piece you get in trouble because it's like hey don't ████ give the customers there's so much dick dick's life poetic justice for this guy mr poetic justice expert i don't know i was actually just thinking i'm like man if geo died and i came back and i was like yo jill's family i killed her i think they might be like no you did it you ████ ████ she probably fell down she fell in the shower would try to claim credit it's opposite holy ████ i did it i killed her with these manly hands and they're like no you did it you ████ ████ ass ████ she fell around it is crazy because that's a true bar take right there bro

6:46 it is true that more people die slipping in the shower than you know probably are killed by their husbands i would assume because when why or when they when people die in the house they say it's usually they it's a spousal ████ yeah like nine times you know what's crazy is uh so one of my staff he lives in one of those like condo uh like town homes where all the walls are shared right and then um recently he was like what the ████ is that smell and like the the houses they kind of have a problem where like it's done in the old school way where every single thing is connected so internet is connected all the way through so if this person if this unit's ████ up everyone else is ████ up plumbing it's the same way and it was smelling like ████ so he was like and he would hear like

7:36 like these goddamn rats i think a ████ rat like uh died or something in there so they got people to go look at the ceiling and then i think finally when they cleared that it wasn't a rat problem and then they smelled and there was like flies and stuff coming out of his neighbor's house the dude died for 30 days already holy ████ but it was during coven or something this was literally like last month or two months ago this happens a lot this dude was just like like mel you know like you're just melting and disintegrating and now you just have flies coming in so i hate that he's been breathing he's been breathing like dead people because his unit's right next door oh ████ he was for like 30 days that's dangerous he's like i have literal dead people parts in my body probably rotten flesh he's got matter in his nose oh god dude now it probably happens a lot that's

8:26 been a ████ maggot buffet dude all the flies were like last things baby the 30-day feast begins now [Laughter] because like my girlfriend will like shower and i'll like like sometimes i'll hear like her razor fall down or her soap fall down and there's a moment where i'm like oh she died from just they're so funny because like it's so loud you know like like i always assume like she just fell down in the shower yeah like i always assume like you know funny one of the funniest go and ask if she's okay the funniest dark humor thing about this what if no one has ever died sleeping in the shower and they've all just been murderers i know like what if it's never really like it happens a lot huh guys i see people i bet people get injured a lot from falling uh in the shower but because girl's shower is so hot bro that's why

9:17 they fall they do too much extra steam everywhere well it's so hot in there people need to start taking bubble baths standing up and scrubbing yourself it's dangerous overrated pass out and drown in the bubble bath and you know what they need to start doing is they need to have knee length tall grass in the shower because then every grass not only is it organic dude it's like it's not it's you're never going to sleep in that situation i want to take a bubble bath there's a shower chair in my hotel and i'm like i kind of want to get this though what's a shower chair you just sit down it's just like a stool what do you do like squat on it but it doesn't know that so the lighter goes it's not a school it's like a it's like a there's like the wall right there you're standing in a handicapped room no no because there's a handicapped shower a raft to go in

10:07 [Laughter] no there's like a wheelchair on the door or whatever but like no it's just like a yeah it's a little thing that like uh i don't even know how to explain it like is there anything it just folds down no no it's just the corner of the wall and oh i know what's talking about you can put like a little bench yeah pulls out no it doesn't pull out though it's always out and you're just like wow yeah i thought that's for old people huh can you swivel no it's like i think it's for where you're supposed to put i guess you kind of could if you're hydroplaning it's where you're supposed to put like your shampoo and stuff like on it yeah but i just sat on it you can put your ass i'm like sitting on it like you know what i need this i thought it's for old people i guess so i think it really is so here's here's an interesting thing i had to look up because i wanted to know um the cdc study indicates that seventy-two percent uh the scientists

10:59 everything what the ████ 72 percent higher chance that women slip in the shower than men why is that clumsy guys ladies or they're getting killed it's you know what though it's probably because or they're getting killed oh the game pushed what if that's what's in the shower have you guys ever fell in the shower no but my clumsy ass grandma did like millions of times something hey i'd be slipping sometimes really tell us walk us through how the ████ you slipped that's why you need to get those ████ rubber flower things that's what the battle by the bathroom it's usually me being cocky about something like i can't remember like what i could do i bet i could do this roundhouse [Laughter]

11:55 i'm trying to think of a time where i've actually like fallen on my ass in the shower like i've slipped and i've stumbled like oh ████ and could you picture that myself why were you even slipping because your boy don't got the flower not even letting him slip you gotta get the flower ████ the only way i'm slipping is if i got ████ soap and i went like this and then i ████ try to jump hey but this guy hey but this guy your shower is not a bathtub bro remember what david said about your shower what he says you have a yellow doesn't show you have a present shower sometimes when you have a bathtub to like get over it sometimes and you know i've had those before yeah but mine's just high brio's mom has a ████ it's this hot yeah yeah it's so high dude so it's hard for me to get in sometimes that's why it slips it's not your toes it's it's regular height it's like down here oh sometimes you just i'm gonna get

12:45 those rubber sticky uh flower things are you right i like those we need to get something these people must just have bigger shower action and ████ because i can't imagine sleeping in a shower without hitting the wall and then the wall holding me up yeah yeah see you're the one having sex in the shower all the time i know but i didn't slip i just i just almost bled to death women be in the shower like bent over shaving this is your stand-up moment dude yeah you know women be in the shower so because they're shaving like you could totally see like backing up and like this stuff oh it's the shaving i'm some of them do some pretty gnarly like positions to get the freaking leg hair off that's true i didn't think that yeah you're hitting like weird like you're probably like unbalanced at some point yeah yeah that's why i take a bath

13:37 you can shave in the bathtub [Music]
