In this week's podcast: A man from New York has allegedly confessed to stabbing and dismembering his wife while on vacation in France (3:38). Plus, a man in Montana was charged with 64 counts of child sex abuse but received only a one-year deferred prison sentence after reaching a plea…
The prosecution played a portion of Taylor Schabusiness’ interview with Green Bay police after she was arrested for the murder of Shad Tyrion in February 2022. The Wisconsin woman confesses to killing Thyrion and details each gruesome act she performed on the victim’s body, including strangling him with a dog…
Joe was our family photographer and photographed our wedding, our family photos, and my daughter's bat mitzvah. We just had my son's bar mitzvah and we missed not having him there to photograph the event. He had the biggest heart and was so incredibly generous. He is missed.
This happened near my hometown. I remember that Brandon also got arrested years ago for inappropriate sexual acts in a patient’s room at our hospital (he was a nurse.. ). Ppl are freaking crazy! Rip Joe
This story is so tragic and heartbreaking! Holbrook is a FREAK! Our entire county knows Holbrook is NUTS! Our community was shook when we learned the victim's remains were found near Holbrook's home. This family is strong and will find the answers to their questions! Stay on LE! RIP
So I googled this and it appears the ex-wife’s boyfriend was arrested and charged with murder. I knew the ex-wife had to be involved. I pray for complete justice for this family. Don’t stop until you get her too
If he was murdered Anywhere else BUT in front of his house, I’d say this is a mystery. But being hit in front of your home is a planned/paid for murder
joe was such a kind and wonderful man. he didn’t have a bad bone in his body. this was the greatest loss. thoughts & prayers for j&j and his family as they navigate life<3
Joe's tragic death raises so many questions. How does someone decide to kill and dismember a person they supposedly never met? Could there be something deeper we still don't know about their connection?
Am I missing something? The family says they’re not sure what the motive was. Ummm…..the murderer is affiliated with the ex wife, who wants sole custody of the kids. If you think she didn’t cast her spell and convince this stupid lunatic to do her bidding, then you are not that bright.
The only way the killer knew where Joe lived and his habits is from the ex-wife. Seems to me the like the ex-wife bad mouthed her ex husband to the new boyfriend. Now you have to determined whether he killed the ex husband because he didnt like what the ex-wife had to say about him…..or she wanted the ex dead so she could have the kids full time and for his money.
Joe was a friend of ours, all of us artists at Eastern market in Washington for well, over 2 decades.This is probably the most shocking event to ever happen to our community… The details are gut wrenchingly Horriffic…I'm very glad they didn't go into a lot of it here…RIP Joe and to Mary and Ted, justice will be done and the truth will be revealed soon and I think we all know what the truth is…
I hate when women bring new men into their kids' lives(which in turn in bringing them into their ex's life)before they even know them. And also they need to pick better men(or women). You can blame the men for only so much, right? There will always be bad men and women it's up to us to know whom we're bringing into our family's lives.
I see the ex-wife had something to do with it on the surface. She probably is a nice person and people just glance over it not even thinking of the possibility and this way she has full custody of the kids cause now he’s dead and anything that he will to the kidshopefully is in a trust so that she can’t touch it, but obviously she’ll be able to get something more I still say they need to look into it way deeper than what it seems. There’s way too fishy.

A horrible tragedy for all. Joe was a great man, and he deserves justice. I am praying for this wonderful family.
The wife
TERRIBLE!!!! The family needs justice!!!
I'm wondering why the wife wasn't mentioned as a positive motive? That's the only way her boyfriend might have known of this guy. Hmmmmm…..
So I googled this and it appears the ex-wife’s boyfriend was arrested and charged with murder. I knew the ex-wife had to be involved. I pray for complete justice for this family. Don’t stop until you get her too

Um…ex-wife hired someone. I’m so sorry for your loss. RIP

Wonder if that's the only life insurance policy taken out on poor Joe!
joe was such a kind and wonderful man. he didn’t have a bad bone in his body. this was the greatest loss. thoughts & prayers for j&j and his family as they navigate life<3
Not so great if he was divorced and not Catholic if he was divorced. His ex must've told Brandon what he was really like.
The ex wife! !! So sad for the family,
Joe's tragic death raises so many questions. How does someone decide to kill and dismember a person they supposedly never met? Could there be something deeper we still don't know about their connection?

We love you forever Uncle Joe.

Need to look at ex-wife who was dating this guy..something isn't right..Rip

Does anyone think that the ex-wife had something to do with that?
Ex-wife? Custody? Nope. That's never been a motive.
