Shooting on the Air Vester Lee Flanagan II was fired from being
a television reporter following a string of conflicts at work, as well as a few outbursts
of rage.
He also had a few racial grievances against him.
But Vester getting fired turned out to be very bad news for Alison Parker and Adam Ward,
two of the co-workers he worked with.
Vester wanted revenge, and he wanted to do it on live TV so that everyone in the country
could watch.
While Alison Parker, a young journalist at WDBJ in the small community of Roanoke, was
on the air, Vester walked up and shot her to death.
He then turned on Adam Ward, her cameraman, and shot him to death too.
The terrifying murders happened while they were live, and while thousands of people were
watching from their living rooms at home.
But in case somebody missed it, Vester was prepared.
He recorded his own video of the murders and uploaded it to Facebook.
As the police were chasing him, he was busy writing about the shootings on Twitter.
It was a truly horrendous day for everybody.
Vester was found dead of a gunshot wound just hours after the police started the manhunt
for him.

Wife Over the Edge A man named Hakan Aysal was arrested after
he got caught pushing his pregnant wife off a cliff and to her death.
He didn’t think anybody saw him do it, but a tourist incidentally captured the whole
thing on video completely by accident.
This terrifying event went down in June of 2019, in the Butterfly Valley of Turkey, near
the city of Mulga.
Hakan and his wife, Semra, had traveled to the valley for holiday.
But Hakan had a lot more than just a vacation planned.
His wife was seven months pregnant, and he wasn't interested in her going to full term.
As Semra was taking pictures from the clifftop, assuming she'd be able to admire those pictures
later and remember her nice vacation with her husband, Hakan pushed her from behind
and she went over the cliff.
When questioned by the police, the husband said it was an accident.
He said she slipped while taking photos, which seemed reasonable enough.
People die taking pictures on the edges of cliffs all the time.
But another tourist had been at a higher section of the cliff making a video at the exact same
time the murder went down.
In the footage, he captured Hakan very obviously pushing his wife over the edge with severe
intent.
Investigators later found out that he had also taken an insurance policy out on her
a short time before the trip.
Pushing his wife off the cliff not only got rid of his baby problem, but also would have
come with a big payoff.
Luckily, he was caught red-handed on video and will hopefully be spending the rest of
his life locked up behind bars.

Rapper Slim 400 One of the more notable murders caught on
tape recently was that of American rapper Slim 400.
A video has been circulating online that shows the rapper literally being dragged from his
front porch in Los Angeles, then shot multiple times at point-blank range.
The Los Angeles Police Department has confirmed the video is indeed footage of the terrifying
incident.
It was captured by the rapper’s home surveillance camera, though it’s not quite clear how
it ended up circling around on the internet.
The death of Slim 400 was absolutely brutal.
The video footage shows the rapper and his killer exchanging words before the killer
pulled out a gun and blasted him.
Then, the attacker dragged Slim 400 through the front yard, continuously shooting him
over and over again.
Considering that the year before, Slim 400 survived a different assassination attempt
after getting shot nine times, the killer wanted to be certain that he wasn't going
to get up again.
But like so many cases that we've talked about today, even with the graphic video footage,
the police still haven't been able to make any arrests and the case is still wide open.

Murder of a Billionaire Couple Barry Sherman and his wife, Honey, were discovered
dead inside their Toronto mansion four years ago in December of 2017.
The pair were discovered hanging from belts that had been tied to a railing above their
indoor pool.
Barry was a billionaire, an aggressive businessman who developed the Canadian drug company Apotex.
He was worth a literal fortune.
Four years after the murder, Canadian police are still trying to find the person sponsible.
They recently revealed a video to the public showing who they believe could be the murderer.
The man can be seen on surveillance footage around the Sherman home loitering for a suspicious
amount of time.
The police don't seem to have any other evidence to go on other than this surveillance footage.
They were able to identify and rule out pretty much everyone else caught on the tape, except
for this one person.
But the police are still helpless at figuring out who he is.
So helpless that they posted the video online hoping that someone else would figure it out
for them!
But it gets weirder.
This case has conspiracy written all over it.
According to CBS News, in the days following the discovery of the body, police officials
tried to say the Shermans’ deaths were part of a murder-suicide.
They said there was no use doing an investigation, it was open and shut.
But the case wasn’t open and shut.
It was the couple’s children who had to hire their own investigators to conduct a
second pair of autopsies, which finally prompted the police to admit that the Shermans had
indeed been murdered.
We don't know what happened.
We don’t know if the police may have been involved, if they’re simply too incompetent
to solve the murder, or if the man on video even had anything to do with it.

A Deadly Garage Sale A woman in Texas was setting up for a garage
sale.
It was the end of January, the holidays were over, and she needed to raise a bit of money
for her upcoming wedding anniversary.
So, Elizabeth Barraza, just 29 years old, got busy in the morning setting up a garage
sale to make a few easy bucks.
But as she was setting up, a woman in a pickup truck parked across the street, got out of
her vehicle, and approached Elizabeth’s home.
She was wearing a lightly colored robe and looked as if she had just escaped from a mental
institution.
What happened next is terrifying.
Surveillance footage captured the crazy woman in the robe lifting her arm and firing a gun
at Elizabeth at point-blank range.
The two had exchanged some words just before the shooting, but literally not more than
a few.
It seemed as though the woman in the robe had targeted her on purpose, as if she was
taking out a hit on the woman.
She blasted Elizabeth three times at close range and her body fell to the ground.
The suspect then stood over her corpse and fired another shot into her.
Then she ran back to her car and sped away.
Police have still been unable to solve this case.
They don't understand what the motive was, they haven't been able to track down the vehicle,
and they haven't been able to identify the killer.
This is despite everything being recorded by home surveillance.
Why do you think Elizabeth was targeted for an assassination while setting up a garage
sale?
Keep in mind she wasn't involved with any suspicious people and didn't seem to owe anybody
any serious money.

Murder on the High Seas In 2012, a video surfaced on the Internet
showing a group of men on a boat executing four other men in the Indian Ocean.
Deckhands at the side of the boat can be seen in the video spraying the water with bullets,
marine executing four men.
It's a truly horrendous thing to watch, with the men being killed one by one and their
bodies going still, with mists of blood slowly staining the surface of the ocean.
Later on in the video, deckhands laugh and pose at the edge of the boat with the floating
bodies.
It took seven years for a suspect to be arrested in the case.
It was Taiwan who made the arrest, taking in a 43-year-old Chinese national named Wang
Feng Yu.
It's believed he was the captain of the ship, the Ping Shin 101, and the one who gave the
orders for the execution.
But he's not talking, and neither is anybody else.
It's because there are some very strange maritime laws involving the open ocean.
We've all heard anecdotes about being able to do whatever you want in international waters,
and although not completely true, there is some truth to it.
It's more that law enforcement is limited in international waters, with jurisdiction
being extremely complicated.
Still, Taiwan stepped up and made at least one arrest.
We don't know what's going to happen to the captain allegedly responsible for the brutal,
daytime killings.
But still, it’s a first step in bringing some law and order to the seven seas, where
according to the New York Times, these kinds of indiscriminate killings happen frequently.

Mowed Down with a Pickup Truck In Las Vegas, a domestic dispute turned into
murder when a husband drove over his wife’s boyfriend on video.
His name is Michael Daniels, and he had an ankle monitor strapped to his leg when he
got captured on surveillance driving his pickup truck straight into a motorbike.
The motorbike was being driven by Ryian Pollare, about a decade younger than Michael and sleeping
with his estranged wife.
But this case gets even more bizarre than that.
Michael had already been arrested three times in just the past three years for violent incidents
involving him beating up his wife.
In one case, he had even strangled her with an extension cord.
And yet in every case, he got off scot-free.
Even when he was busted firing a live handgun at his wife, her boyfriend, and her dad in
2018, he still managed to slip away.
And even after he got busted for grand larceny in 2019, he only got an ankle bracelet slapped
on, no real jail time.
But now the charge is murder.
There's really nothing Michael can do to get away, seeing as he was caught on video purposely
driving into his wife’s younger boyfriend.
The crash resulted in the boyfriend’s brutal and probably very painful death.

Caught on Video – Free on the Streets In Portland, police are still looking for
the individual responsible for shooting and killing Maurice Gatson as he stood outside
an adult entertainment club almost a decade ago.
Maurice was only 45 years old when he was shot dead on October 3, 2015.
It happened at about 12:45 at night.
But what makes the case truly shocking is that detectives have had surveillance footage
of the crime ever since it went down.
They literally have the person responsible on video, shooting Maurice and then running
away!
And yet they still, coming up on seven years, have not been able to identify the shooter.
It was only all this time later that they finally released the surveillance video of
the crime to the public, hoping someone can identify the killer.
Why they waited six years to do this is a total mystery.
The killer has basically already gotten away with murder.

Gang Violence Caught on Tape!
Gang violence has been captured on surveillance footage in New York City in the worst possible
way.
The footage shows the exact moment that an assassin crept up and killed a Crips gang
member while he was getting off a CitiBike in the middle of the day.
The victim was Pierrot Simeon, 21 years old.
He pulled up to a bodega on the bicycle when the killer pulled out a gun and shot him for
seemingly no reason.
And while this event in itself is scary, there is something much scarier potentially on the
horizon.
This latest execution was just the latest in a string of violent crime that has pushed
gun violence up 43 percent in 2021 from 2020.
People in New York are terrified that the city could be regressing into the dark days
of the 70s, when people were pretty much shooting each other on every corner.
What's truly unnerving is that even with all the surveillance cameras around the city,
and with so many people being caught on tape murdering people, there are so few arrests.
In this case, the last we heard, the killer is still at large.
At the time of the shooting, there had already been 931 victims of gun crime in New York
City alone.

Murder on the Street In New York City, surveillance footage has
revealed a horrifying execution-style shooting in broad daylight.
In the video footage, a woman wearing black leggings can be seen getting out of a white
sedan, walking up to a woman named Delia Johnson, and casually shooting her in the back of the
head as she was chatting with a group of friends.
As the friends were screaming and Johnson was bleeding to death on the sidewalk, the
shooter can be seen in the video footage walking calmly back to her car and then driving away.
It was one of the most brazen shootings in recent memory, and truly like something out
of a spy movie.
According to NBC News, the shooter has since been arrested.
She was tracked down in Florida and then extradited to New York City to face the murder charges.
Her name is Claudia Banton of Georgia, though she also goes by the names Claudia Williams
and Kiesha Brown.
The victim’s brother claims the shooter followed his sister from a funeral that both
of them had attended for their dead neighbor.
And yet there seems to be no connection between the dead neighbor, Delia Johnson and her family,
and the mysterious assassin with many names.
The police can't even pin down a motive, and the whole thing seems completely random and
beyond unusual.
