Hi guys, welcome back to my channel. So we have another where is video today
And I recently got a lot of new subscribers
So if you're new to my channel where is, is a series that I do and we talk about
Missing-persons cases because not only are they really really interesting it's also super important to get this information out to people spreading
information about these cases
Is the best way to help any of them. If you watch this video be sure to share their face around,
maybe share this video or share a picture of them with some information
on your social media, because it's actually way more helpful than you would even think. And today
we're talking about the case of Monique Daniels.
It's been over two decades since anyone saw her. This case is really really frustrating, and fascinating, so
buckle up because this one just has a lot of twists, a lot of information. Before we get started though
I am doing another campaign for thorne. If you don't know about this, with this series
I have started trying to raise money for thorne with every where is video. Thorne is an organization started by Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher and
actually work on new technology to help save kids that are in sex trafficking which a
lot of missing-persons cases end up in sex trafficking sadly. One of the most extraordinary
programs we've been able to implement, is what we call our shared
hash program. When one company finds a child abuse image on their network,
they will report it to the National Center
and they'll create a digital
fingerprint of it and send it up to the cloud. And all the other participating companies can pull that fingerprint down and
find that image on their network; and what this results in is more Rapid
identification and removal of this content across the internet and ideally will lead to quicker
identification and rescue of these children. So thorne is doing things that the government isn't even doing they're trying to come up with new and
innovative ways to catch people that are involved with child pornography
or sexual exploitation, or sex trafficking because those people organize themselves on the web
so it's all about creating new technology to save them and they've saved so many people so far. So we are starting another where is
shirt campaign. This is the design, it was designed by a subscriber. All of my where is campaigns and future ones are
designed by Subscribers
Which is just even cooler because no one else will have it, they're unique, limited edition only available for 21 days
You can collect them all, that's what I'm
doing. I asked the designers that have
volunteered for this to design something they think represents their artwork and also represents the channel and our newest designer's named Arantxa, so is this
not the cutest thing
It's the planet obviously and their faces and personalities each kind of go with like their energy and astrology, so it's so cute
I love Saturn
I just love Saturn. Now this comes in sweatshirts, T-Shirts, bunch of different options, a bunch of different colors, so something for everybody not only
do you get an awesome shirt
100% of the money that is raised for this campaign goes directly to thorne. Doing great work guys,
Doing great work for the world.
So there's a link to buy it in the description box remember these are limited edition and only available for 21 days
So hop on it! Huge thank you to anyone
who's bought a shirt so far, you guys are the real MVP's. But anyway let's go ahead and get started with this case.
This is the case like I said of Monique Daniels
And it is a pretty old case. She's actually been missing for longer than I've been alive, went missing in 1992.
So I'm going to tell you her story because it's really really crazy and some sketch stuff has gone on so this is Monique Daniels
Beautiful girl, and she was from Moore,
Oklahoma. Her official description is caucasian female, blond hair, blue eyes. Monique has a
halfmoon shaped scar on the outside of her left ankle and a three inch scar on her right shin
She has a mole on the upper left side of her lip, Monique's upper left insisor tooth is chipped
and her nickname is Nikki.
so Monique was actually born to a
biological father who wasn't in her life, most of her life there was four kids in her family at the time, her biological
father did some pretty messed-up things to them.
But now he is a convicted and imprisoned
sex offender. Her moms name is Candice. Her mom ended up getting remarried to a man named Chuck. Chuck became a stepfather to
her four children. After they got married they had two more kids
And so it became a family of six. Like I said they lived in Oklahoma. Both of the parents were actually in the military
Chuck and Candice. It was like boot camp in there. They were strict parents
There was a lot of fighting. From what I've read about Monique, She was a really really nice person.
She had a lot of friends. She was well-liked at school. Tons of friends, everybody loved her.
I can even remember guys in my class
crushing on my sister and asking why she was so cute, and I wasn't. She was really really smart though
did really good in school.
In fact she had big plans to become a doctor one day. One of her best friends said that she always put others first.
So another person that's pretty important in this story is Angelique,
who is Monique's sister. Angelique has been really leading the search for truth,
and really has stood up for her sister and tried to do her best to bring her justice.
So in 1992, Monique was 15 years old and she actually got pregnant. And obviously her parents did not like that, as I said
they ran their house like drill sergeants. So they were really really tough and getting pregnant was not okay to them.
So they forced Monique to have an abortion. And after this all happened Monique was so upset that she actually ran away.
And she really did, she did run away. And her friends said that they knew where she was, she was at another friend's house staying
there, and while she was gone her parents looked for her every single day,
put up flyers.
Anytime someone said they would see her they would drive out to go find her. So they were really really worried about her and making
active attempts to try to find her. And eventually
Monique did come home her friends convinced her to go back and she was home for a pretty brief amount of time. So a little
while later, Monique's mom Candace, and her sister Angelique,
and her brother Brian all three of them got invites to go on this church
Choir trip, and Angelique said she remembers the trip being really weird, that her mom was
acting kind of odd and when they got back from their trip
Angelique said that they came in and that the house was completely different than normal. Normally their house was clean. They, like I said,
ran the house like a drill sergeant. So it was like a tight ship. The house was in a disarray. Now,
we're talking about a spotless environment all the time.
There were beer bottles, there were cigarette butts put out on the fireplace mantel. Something was really off, and when they got home,
Chuck told them that Monique was gone again. She ran away and that, you know this time
We should just let her go, because she obviously
if she wanted to be here she would be even her mom was just like, okay
whatever like they weren't looking for her as much, and as time went on, they started literally removing Monique from their lives,
it's almost like she never existed in their family they took new family pictures without her in it, we
got new family pictures. Took the old picture down from above the fireplace,
put it in the attic, put the new one up. Angelique couldn't help feeling like well,
why are we all moving on without our sister here?
This is pretty weird. And as months went on, Angelique said that they were forbidden
to talk about Monique. Another important person in this story is Leslie,
which is Candace's sister, so this is Monique's Aunt. And she was really really worried about Monique
She was constantly calling, trying to get updates on it
She even tried to convince them to get more people in to search for her, get some more resources going
really offered to put in a helping hand. Then one specific day
Leslie asked Candace if she had Monique's police reports so that she could use it to get more resources, and get more information,
and help. And her mom said oh, yeah
I'll get that to you and this was six months after she was gone and eventually Candace admitted that they never filed a missing-persons
report for her. Now to their credit they did say that the reason they did that was
because they thought she left, this was her second time leaving and it was.
They thought that she was gone on her own so she wasn't a missing person, but she is way underage
I mean 16 is pretty young to just run away, and be like whatever my daughter is whatever now.
That's a long time to not have reported anything. It has been six months, and she's gone. Which is huge,
that's a huge lapse in time for them to have not been doing any type of DNA
testing, or look at the scene of her house or you know, question anybody
and it makes the case about
100 times harder to solve. And then there was a huge break in the case. Angelique actually got a call from Monique and
according to Angelique at the time, though Angelique passed on the message to her parents that Monique called and wanted to let you guys know that
she's fine. And a week after that they got a letter in the mail from Monique.
From nearly 200 miles away in Dallas. And the letter said that she was fine that she was married now and had a baby named Chelsea.
And that they lived in Alaska, but they traveled a lot around the country for her husband's job.
Just wanted to drop a line and let mom know that she was okay.
So Monique's mom called all the relatives, told her she's fine. She's a - you know,
this is great news right. But some of the relatives still felt like something was fishy especially her Aunt Leslie.
So odd that as soon as she kind of puts pressure on them, these letters show up.
So she told the police about them and
asked for a handwriting specialist to look at them. And the day that they were supposed to bring the letters to be looked at by
professionals at the Police Department,
her house was actually broken into. Just a day before Monique's mom promised to take the letters in to be examined,
there was a reported break-in at the
Daniels residence. The furniture was tipped over, there was some CD's missing, a couple little boom boxes and the
letters. I've never heard of someone breaking into a house and stealing letters.
So that's really sketch to me, like of course the day that they're supposed to bring the letters to the police
they just go missing. Now Angelique actually knew something about the letters
that she didn't tell anybody, and that was that she wrote them. And Angelique says now that it was like her biggest regret was
writing those letters, but her stepdad Chuck,
convinced her to write them so that her mom can finally get some peace.
So the call was fake, the letters were fake, and
no one had heard from Monique. As soon as the police found out about this it looks even more sketchy like why is the dad
making you write fake letters
I mean, it's just so weird right? She felt bad about it
but she said she didn't come forward and tell anyone that she wrote them because Chuck told her she would go to jail.
I was scared. I was really afraid for myself, and you know I thought that
I was gonna to be wherever she was soon. At that point, what did you think had happened to Monique?
I thought he sent her away.
Because he threatened it so us so often that you know he had places for girls like us there were military school for
girls like us. And Angelique
never gave up on this. For two years after Monique went missing, she was fighting with her parents, fighting to try to find out
the truth. Felt like something was being covered up
and she said she got so sick of the lies that she actually moved to Michigan to live with some family up there and when
she got there, she finally confessed to her Aunt that
she wrote the letters and her Aunt freaked out because now that looks really sketchy.
It's been two years at this point.
And what's so weird of all this is that when Angelique went missing even though she just moved to Michigan to be with family.
Her parents filed a police report almost immediately after. And shortly Leslie and Angelique found out
that her parents JUST
had filed one for Monique. He told the whole family that he'd already filed a runaway report. But that wasn't true.
That was not true. He lied. Your parents never filed a missing-persons report on your sister?
Until I ran away from home almost 22 months after.
Authorities
questioned both parents about the suspicious delay and Chuck even admits to faking the letters with Angelique. It had taken them two
years, for them to finally write their own police report on their other daughter being missing as well. sketch, sketch, sketch.
And authorities questioned her parents, you know why haven't you made an official police report on this. They said that you know she ran away
so we didn't think we needed to report her missing and the police even requested a lie detector test on her parents
but they refused to do it.
We're giving the opportunity for a lie detector. Did you ask for one? Yes. So they refused to take a lie detector?
Correct.
And as they were putting on more of a search, you know trying to actually get an investigation going they found out that a neighbor said
that they did remember seeing Monique get into a
truck back then, but no one's really sure what the neighbors saw. Only one person, it's never been like a confirmed sighting. Angelique said
she never wanted to go back home because she claims her parents were
emotionally, mentally, physically abusive of her. They even tried to extradite her back to Oklahoma
And the judge said no.
So Angelique and Leslie finally got some media coverage on this. They went public with their thoughts on the whole thing, the fact that they
thought that
Chunk and Candace had something to do with it and they went on TV talking about this and right after that, Chuck, Candance, and the rest
of their kids moved to Germany for ten years. It was for a military thing,
but Angelique thinks that they purposely left. So years and years later after Moniques' been gone for quite a long time at this point.
There was an F5, tornado that went through their home in Oklahoma.
It was only a few weeks to the day since Monique had disappeared years earlier. An F5, tornado ripped through Moore,
Oklahoma just trashing it and I was watching it on TV
All these homes that I played in as a kid just obliterated and the phone rings.
And it's Andrew. He's crying. And I'm like what, what's going on? He's like, Ange I was there and she wasn't talking.
And I'm like, I knew he was talking about
Monique, and I knew he was about to tell me. And her brother Andrew actually called Angelique. One of the last people to see her alive,
Younger brother Andrew is finally speaking out about what he remembers from her last day.
And I don't know if it was like the tornado that just made him feel emotional, or he had to tell the truth or something
But he finally admitted something to Angelique.
So the only people home when Monique went missing that day, were the three brothers.
Because Bryan and Angelique were with their mom Candace on a church choir trip as I had mentioned.
So Chuck was home with Monique and the three other boys, and the boys were pretty young at this point and according to Andrew he
said that the day that they last saw Monique that Chuck and Monique
were having a huge fight that morning
that that's normal for them. And shortly after that he rounded up the boys for a fishing trip. Some time later
Chuck gathered up the boys for a spontaneous
fishing trip. And before they left for their fishing trip, he said hey, you guys gotta go say goodbye to your sister Monique.
My dad was like hey uh, you guys needa go and say goodbye to Monique.
I went in there in like a single file.
I was in front, and my little brothers were
behind me. Andrew says Chuck only allowed the boys to talk to Monique through her cracked
bedroom door. It was cracked only a little bit. They could only see her legs. When I saw Monique
she was on the floor of her
in her bedroom.
Her legs were crossed. She was still. One of the brothers says, I mean he was super young, but he says he remembered Monique talking.
But Andrew said that she wasn't saying anything back to them when they were saying goodbye through the door. And one thing I didn't mention
earlier is that when the other three came back from their choir trip and the house was all messed up,
they also found a open box of pregnancy test in the bathroom. After that they left for their fishing trip in the pouring rain,
with no fishing poles. They drove for two hours, didn't even go fishing, went to a McDonald's and came back to the house.
When they got there, he left them in the car. Said you guys have to stay out here in the car,
I'm gonna go inside and do something. And
according to Andrew it was about an hour that they were out there. Andrew said he
really had to go to the bathroom so as soon as their dad let them out of the car
he ran in house and went into the bathroom
and he says he got an eerie feeling that he wasn't alone. When Chuck finally let the brothers out
Andrew says he rushed to the bathroom and got the eerie feeling,
He wasn't alone. Yeah, I was actually like scared. I hadn't seen Monique.
Shower was closed. There's things that
lead me to believe that she was in that bathtub. And he claims that before he could even look
Chuck rushed him and his other brothers into a bedroom and locked them in there
for two days.
After telling them he was going to go look for Monique, he locked them in for two days.
They were super young, Andrew says that he really can't remember much of it, neither
can the other brothers, but they were locked in. And it's so bizarre because no one knows what happened,
no one knows what Chuck was doing and finally after those two days Chuck came back
and took only one of the brothers with him.
He doesn't remember much of this, but all he remembers was being in the back of his dad's truck and seeing an oil drum in the truck bed.
Sucks because he was so young he barely remembers anything else that happened or what they did or where they went.
Angelique says that she thinks all of this comes back to one very scary conclusion. I believe that
Charles Daniels
killed my sister Monique, and then I believe he put her in an oil drum and he drove her out to,
where he took her to and he buried her there.
I'm not saying that Chuck and Candice did anything. They are innocent until proven guilty and they have not been proven guilty.
I want to make that clear. And like I said there is no solid proof of this. The investigation is so hard because
they didn't report her for so long and investigators are like
like we've had nowhere to start with it. And officer's even dug up the backyard
to look for her and didn't find anything. And crime watch actually did a special on this and when they
confronted Chuck and Candace here's what happened. You have a few minutes to talk with us? No not really. Whatever happened
it's in God's hands.
Thank you very much, and we're going to ask now that you leave.
But just one thing you know the allegations are serious that your husband could have killed your daughter.
Angelique said that you're - and Angelique is a really messed-up young lady.
and
Asking me about anything you
need to just I think leave the property - Okay. - Before I call the police. All right. Thank you. Sir? Hi, are you Chuck Daniels?
So what do you think happened to Monique?
It's in God's hands, I don't know.
Neither parent has been charged for this, it has just been this huge
mystery of what really happened to Monique. A lot of people still think she actually did run away, and one of the possibilities with that
was maybe she really was pregnant and she wanted to go somewhere else until the baby was born
but had already built a new life for herself.
So she's possibly still out there. Angelique says that she's not going to give up,
she's still searching for the truth and that the Moore police have been nothing but helpful in the whole situation.
It's possible that this case will get solved, maybe someone will come forward and say something, or maybe Monique will come back.
So I want to know your guys's opinion on this. Do you think Monique is still alive?
What do you think happened to her if she's not? If she is alive, where do you think she is, and what do you think happened?
I want to know your opinions on this
in the comment section. Like I said there's not a lot of evidence or details or anything because of the lack of reporting this.
So we're really going off very small amount of
information. If you have any information or think you may have seen Monique, there is information in the description box to get that to the
right people. If you think you know anything, anything even if it's small, come forward, even the silliest smallest tips
end up
having huge effects or could possibly solve the case. Be sure to check out the design for the where is Monique Daniel's campaign,
and like I said 100% of it goes to thorne,
so you get to feel awesome while also getting an awesome shirt that is designed, limited-edition,
no one else will have it.
That's it for me today guys. I hope you're having a great day, and I will see you next time. Bye
