Donovan should have called the cops…he was an accomplice to this as he gave him money & gas can…

This stories usually don’t get to me like this one did. I think mostly because it could happen to any one of us women going out to something as simple as going to the store to get snacks. I feel so bad this happened to this girl.. I can’t even fathom how scared she was.
@marymastenbrook2883
Poor Melanie, I'd never think the baby-faced Ernesto was capable of such violence either. He played on her sympathy to make her feel sorry for him.
@dalejones1943
Kimbyrleigha, you are absolutely correct, Melanie was taken far too early from this lifetime! May God continue to bless this Family!
@robindegraffenreid9056
The cashier at the store should have made a call to police and alert them and follow the young lady to her car😢

“Pretty normal” could have been about ANYTHING, i.e., how was the Red Bull event tonight? “Pretty normal”. Plus, she could have been trying to drive away and he jumped into the passenger side and threatened her and grabbed her phone.
@jennifergreen1567
Excellent detective work by police AND you! You never disappoint.
@udlove09
I knew Melanie. We went to high school together and she was always such a lovely person. So joyful and funny.
@minuteman8017
Donovan is 100% guilty after the fact and should share in the exact time in prison.
@casssmith2610
Moral of the story… quit being so damn nice to your boyfriend. Going into a place like that at that time is making yourself vulnerable to sh!t that lurks there often for something or someone just like this.
@WhitneyMarie53
I don’t know about anyone else. But wrong place wrong time murders are some of the hardest ones to hear for me… Like one wrong turn in your life cost you your life. That can happen to anyone at any point and it’s super scary!

As someone who grew up in this area I can attest to there being no more trees in the DFW area.
@michelleyoung7445
He has a lot to do with this crime
@rm4519
I wonder what Ernestos citizenship status was?
@rm4519

@Jeronda-se6im
Stop drinking red bull

@lovelyleslie113
The respect I have for both mothers, to come together and comfort each other when they both in a sense, lost children. Made me cry . Atleast his mother has a good heart
@Sksiwixiekasks
Ladies, call the police from inside the store. Don’t get out of the store alone.
@danielns00
You're not just a True Crime youtuber, you're a whole investigator.
Also, Red Bull over time has caused heart attacks!
@brilliantbrownbeauty
Purely senseless crime; Ernesto being a complete degenerate at his young age is mind blowing. At 20, I was in college planning to attend a Destiny’s Child concert with my friends.
@kimilieallen4528
One thing that wasn’t mentioned and I am just curious, was the guy that murdered her an a US citizen or was he here illegally?
@toriplayssg
Bowling for soup are from Wichita Falls
@alisondawson5116
Have just finished watching the episode about Nona and I can’t help but think that, too many young college girls have been murdered, how similar to Nona in that they both were fro Christian families, they both sang, both sang in their church choir, both played an instrument and both were in college. Just thought I’d mention it. L💕💕💕🐾🐾🐾🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺xoxox
@maanmohammad8459
It is a mystery to me how the store clerk let him hang out for so long.
@divinecommerce3912
