Pure evil. Can a human really do this?
Does anyone know what happened to the dog?
most crime stories dont faze me this one almost brought me to tears
So sad poor woman so brave
an old smelly dirty discounting man and a 7y old girl, I am beyond angry, beyond!
I've seen several of these Crime Watch Daily – Videos and this by far is the most chillin' / saddest one ever
May this extremely brave young lady be blessed with peace, comfort, strength and a long, healthy, successful life.
I Wanna Fight The Narrator
What a strong & brave woman….
She is also very smart to pretend to be “dead”….
God heal her heart, mind, memories ,
: in Jesus name ! Amen.
And body . Bless her with wholeness & His love
i love this story
I watch a lot of crime documentaries etc. But I’ve got to say- I think this night of been the worst I have ever listened too and watched
this lady is so strong and should be so proud of herself for being so strong!
He was naked, this tells me he did it before and actually developed a process.
it's easy to say the death penalty is harsh when you are looking from afar at numbers and a story. we NEED the death penalty because of people like this
im just under 4 mins in and yea def. sounds like tommy lynn sells MO he did this to other girls and women
Ughh I’m stressed! A survivor though….she survived!
How didn’t he realize she moved off the bed??? He probably saw her sleeping and thought she was dead. I guess
This is soooooo awful I’m in tears. I would love to get my hands on this pc of work!
This is the most HORRIFIC crime I've ever heard of. So sad.
OMG HOW COULD SOME ONE DO SUCH A THING… SHE IS SUCH A STRONG WOMEN MY CONDOLENCES TO HER WHOLE FAM!!!!
This is the saddest story I’ve watched on this show, omg


This is hard to watch and I’ve seen dozens and dozens of these videos
What a sick person does something like this evil at its worst should get the death penalty
Why does the voice sound like she’s trapped in a well.

Can’t even imagine what Melissa has been through~ a lifetime of utter pain. The perpetrator isn’t even human.
Did anyone remember in school that they said everyone will be writing in cursive in the future? I think they meant everyone will probably forget learning cursive, just like they said you need to learn math
Oh my god, this poor woman
Thith wath a gruethome scene.
The sad thing is a inocent man got the blame for this & served 35 year's of his life behind bars before they got the right man !!!
I hope this man gets life in prison. Bless her , an angel saved her.
So horrible, so sad. Hugs to Melissa.
OMG I watch many of these episodes but this one is particularly devastating: anything with children. My heart absolutely aches for this lady recounting this story and having to have gone through this ordeal. Horrendous.
That was incredibly tragic and difficult to listen to her relive that. Breaks my heart. When her and the journalist started to cry I lost it. Incredibly sad. Sick bastard I hooe he rots in hell.
Pure evil!!! Monster
Bad omen to have the last name Tate.
OMG… This is one of the saddest Crime Watch Daily episodes I have ever seen! In order for him to do what he did with no emotion, he had to be demon possessed.
As soon as the dog survived
this is so sad I feel awful for her
This is worse than any nightmare anyone could have.
She needs a million hugs and puppies for all of that shit she went through
Jesus Christ for god sake. If a fucking child tells you some weird ass shit like that, you believe the fucker. You'd be surprised how intense a child's intuition is.
Im so sorry you had to experience thats so horrible
Omg this made me so sad i just imagined if I was in the satiation with my mom and sister
Everyone should keep a Journal in my opinion.
Oh my gosh this is simply the worst thing I have ever heard. Absolutely feral uncivilized bastard.
I have watched many thousands of murder/crime documentaries featuring countless victims stories….. but i have never felt so moved and been so emotionally affected by anyone's testimony of their 'attack….it made me urge and almost threw up. How horrific….that poor poor lady! My heart goes out to you! (this is also my longest ever youtube comment!)!
She's obviously a strong person, to have physically and emotionally survived that horrific ordeal.
Better yet throw this jerk in jail & tell all the inmates what he did-especially those little girls. The prisoners will take care of him, the way he should be dealt with-
