In this episode of Crime Watch Daily Updates: Twenty-two-year-old Cati Blauvelt wanted nothing more than to create a family with her husband, John Blauvelt, and his young daughter from a previous marriage. But sadly, she would never see that dream become a reality.
In 2016, John was 28 years old and worked as an Army recruiter at local high schools. He also allegedly had an eye for high school-aged girls, too.
His marriage to Cati had ruptured by this point, with Cati moving back in with her mom and starting the process of looking for lawyers to help her file for divorce.
On October 23, 2016, Cati was last seen leaving her job at a pet store. She was supposed to meet up with friends after work, but she never showed up. Her mom reported her missing.
The next day was any family’s worst nightmare: Cati was found stabbed to death in the cellar of an abandoned home deep in the woods of Simpsonville, South Carolina.
When police went to John’s home to speak with him, he was hanging out with his 17-year-old girlfriend, Hannah Thompson. Hannah’s parents had previously expressed concerns about her underage partying with the Army vet.
On November 18, 2016, Simpsonville Police obtained warrants for John’s arrest on charges of murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime.
Then, he and Hannah disappeared.
Hannah was found in Oregon in December 2016, but John remained on the run.
He eluded officials for six more years until the U.S. Marshals captured him in Oregon on July 21, 2022. John was extradited to South Carolina and was ordered to be held without bond.
Let’s take a look back at the case of a young woman whose life was cut much too short and the estranged husband who tried to run, but couldn’t hide.
Dont rush to get married young and DONT marry quickly! Usually it doesnt turn out well.
I wana know why the age of consent is only 16?!?!😢😢😢
hannahs mom is absolutely disgusting
i can tell you with experience that men who are over 25 that date or hang out with anyone under the age of 18 do so because most women their own age are smart enough (sometimes) to see through their psycho tendencies but young girls are more likely to not notice that behavior and are willing to think they're different and those men won't do that to them. my older brother was just such a man and i spent many years trying to warn these young girls who he brought around the family but none listened until they were older and already had been assaulted by my brother. he is now a level 2 sex offender but he continues to rape young women and assault them but somehow my pleas with people are still ignored and his circle of friends still think he's the man. i spent my childhood being abused by my brother (he's a rapist so you can fill in the blanks) and when we lived in Florida he joined the crips gang and he made me carry small packages of drugs with me to my middle school Brownsville middle, the neighborhood around my school had several of my brothers customers so i had to run across the street to the neighborhood to deliver them and make it back to the bus before it left or i had to walk over 2 miles home, which i had to do several times. my mom worked 2 full time jobs to keep a roof over our heads and would leave my older brother to watch me, i was terrified of him because he threatened to kill me so i never told my mom until years later. i share this story because i have always tried to protect women (because i was raised by a single mother) and unlike my brother i have respect for females and i would tell any girl who may be in a relationship with an older man this…… if they are dating you and your underage and their older then you please be smart enough to realize why! there is a reason they're not with someone their own age! please listen to the people that love you, they're not telling you these things about him because they want to control you (and it may seem that way) they simply want you to be safe and live a long, happy life…….. SO PLEASE LISTEN!
My best friends daughter and her 37 year old tai kwon do teacher came to tell her mother when she was just turning 16, that they were together. She had been doing tai kwon do for years. Grew up without a father. He was married with children and a pregnant wife. Groomed. Mother couldn't prove anything. Legal age in New Zealand is 16.
That little trick ain't in danger‼️‼️ She's played ever the part in this sick plot‼️‼️ Y'all act like these "girls" are innocent but look at all the shyt they been getting into these last decades.. and how you not know where the fk your 17yr old is since you so concerned about who she fkn⁉️⁉️ Get your shyt together parents, cuz y'all blind as fk to that little bitch 🤣🤣🤣 and she's lying to the pigs too.. it's them young ho's that ya gotta watch out for‼️‼️
His wife was only 22 and he wanted to be with someone younger?? 17. Lord almighty. Rest in peace Cati. Jeez
Shame on the dad of the girl that ran off with that nasty man. Respect her right to not give any information, what!?! His daughter put her parents through he'll worrying about her. She made a series of bad choices putting her life at risk. That girl needs to be drug home. That's ridiculous.
Great some care do their jobs nab fugitives, murderers and hopefully, illegals. Democrats their voters are immoral, illiterate, incapable. Don't care who lives or dies. Criminals, one and the same. Democrat cities/states are savage racial jungles. Parasites run amok no bail, arrests or punishment; Attack, burn, rape, rob, loot, beat, maim, molest, destroy, murder. That's daily life in NYC, HORRIFYING. Miscreants punished, locked-up, reminds NYers someone, somewhere, cares. This is still America, after all.
do not kill womans, because it is wrong
Go ARMY… keep sending back crazy,perverted and traumatized people
How come with military vets it takes years to find and convict them of murder?
OMG!!!! ANOTHER FALSE TITLE —- ZERO MENTION OF ANY ARREST!!!!!!! WTF!!!!!!!! STOP MISLEADING — OR STOP NOT TELLING US THE OUTCOME!!!!!! YOU SUCK ROYALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Omg her mom , i want to hug her so tight 😢
That 17 year old girl is a Dodo I’m sorry should’ve known better
Wouldn't it be a crazy twist if it turns out that Hannah committed the murder .
Hannah’s mom seems to be missing some IQ points. 😑
Today's Date November 2022. One day I thought that FEMICIDES would stop because I thought that, the 2000 generation would not have the Machism from previous generation but, Unfortunately the 2000 generation are worst than ever… ENOUGH OF FEMICIDES ENOUGH OF FEMICIDES ENOUGH OF FEMICIDES ENOUGH OF FEMICIDES ENOUGH OF FEMICIDES ENOUGH OF FEMICIDES!!!!
Hannah wanted to be grown…Parents should cut ties with her…The mother seem like she don't have a backbone…So I see why her daughter was wild…
Hannah helped conceal the murd*r. She was arrested a few weeks ago & is facing some hefty charges .
Stupid Trophies!!!
In CO 16 is the consenting age, but the person can not be more than 10 years older. Which this is such a blast of the past for me cause I dated a 26 year old Army Ranger when I was 17. Luckily this didn't happen, but he was not mentally together.
Not surprised at the age of "consent" in a "conservative" state being so Young
So when do we introduce castration as a form of punishment?
People need to start looking more into these high school “ recruiters “ straight fucking weirdos
Typical military relationship. Happened in my neighborhood. Shot his wife and kids then turned the gun on himself. I had an opportunity to shoot him on what would have amounted to self defense a week earlier. Wish I had. I'm not a killer though , I give peoples ability to be good on the inside to much credit.
Inappropriate ad breaks in these harrowing cases are pretty disgusting, especially that true crime daily probably doesn't need the monet earned from ad revenues…
Legal age of consent is 16….maybe SC should rethink that.
Wait… wtf?? Where is the new update or next part??
Wait did they find him and arrest him or…..
He was a FN PF
He needs to be sentenced for going into high schools to recruit, disgusting…fodder for illegal wars. He deserves the death penalty for killing his wife, and dating an adolescent
A genuine piece of shit
The volume of the interviews were so soft…
Wow this is crazy I lived in Simpsonville for a year before I moved here to Texas. It’s such a nice clean safe town.
Good riddance 👏 😎
as a civilian child who's parents worked at the family business, a construction company that required my dad & uncle's to have a NC drivers license, mandatory minimum security background check & renewable/expiring clearance pass & separate temporary base pass, & my often accompanying them to work & back as a child & young teen on Fr Bragg, I can definitively say IF ANY PERSON OVER THE AGE OF 18, GETTING READY TO ENLIST, TALKING ABOUT ENLISTING, PLANNING ON ENLISTING, OR IS ALREADY ENLISTED & AN OFFICIAL CERTIFIED "PRIVATE" OR ANY OTHER RANK IN THE MILITARY & TALKS TO TEENAGERS WHO ARE MINORS WILL ALWAYS FIND A WAY TO GO PLACES WHERE UNDERAGE GIRLS & 18 & UNDER MINORS CONGREGATE! IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE GUY IS 18/19 HE WILL BE CAUGHT IN A SITUATION WITH UNDERAGED GIRLS BETWEEN 13-17 AT SOME POINT IN HIS CAREER OR AFTER HE HAD LEFT WHETHER QUIT ON HIS OWN, FORCED TO NOT RRNEW CONTRACT, OR RETIRED OUT WITH HONORS, IT DOESN'T MATTER! IG ANY SOLDIER IS AROUND ANY FEMALES UNDER THE AGE OF 18, THEY ARE PROFESSIONAL GROOMERS! I HAVE SEEN THESE GUYS GO AGTER 14/15 & 16/17 WITH THE GOAL OF TRAPPED MARRIAGE TIME & TIME WGAIN! YEST AFTER YEAR, EVERY CLASS GRADUATION BRINGS MORE PREDATORS TO MY CITY & I GREW UP WATCHING THEM TARGET THE MALL, STORES & GAS STATIONS AROUND SCHOOLS, & THE LIBRARY AS A WAY TO HAVE AN EXCISE FOR TALKING TO THESE HIGH SCHOOL & MIDDLE SCHOOL KIDS! NO GROWN ADULT 18+ IN THE MILITARY SHOULD HAVE ANYTHING IN COMMON WITH GIRLS IN HIGH SCHOOL!! THEY ARE PREPARED FOR BEING CALLED INTO A WAR & POSSIBLY LOSING THEIR OWN LIFE ONCE ON THE PLANE, THEY ARE JUST TRYING TO TRAP YOUNG IMMATURE GIRLS WHO MAY NOT GET ALONG WITH PEERS & MAY BE A BIT MORE MATURE THAN MOST CLASSMATES, BUT THEY SHOULD NEVER BE ON THE SAME MATURITY LEVEL AS SOMEONE PREPARED TO DIE IN COMBAT!!! PLEASE DON'T, YOU ARE A VICTIM, & DON'T BE ASHAMED IF YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH THIS, OR ARE GOING THROUGH IT NOW! HE PREYED ON YOUR MATURITY & TOOK ADVANTAGE OF YOUR LONELINESS AMONGST YOUR CLASSMATES! PLEASE TELL SOMEONE & GO GET HELP!! DON'T TELL HIM & DON'T GO ANYWHERE ELSE WITH HIM AFTER YOU'VE TOLD!! PLEASE PROTECT YOURSELF!! YOU MATTER!!
{ARMY OR AIR FORCE SPECIFICLY}
He’s a pedophile clearly. There’s no cure only death!
Impressive when messing around you know what mess can happen eventually. Rip
