Nerdy posessive Boy friend?? Any Updates?

[mgdonnan]

No one knows the case?? I think his name is Randall Utterback or Utterbach -- really nerdy dude that couldn't stand that his x girlfriend didn't want to be with him-- he ran her off the road and threatened to kill himself if she wouldn't get back together with him? Please let me know if there were any updates...

I remember the case, although I don't remember the actual spelling of his last name. Even when it was intermixed with new episodes on Lifetime, there were no updates. So chances are, he's still out there.

To my recollection, it hasn't been on America's Most Wanted. But maybe it's time for that show to feature that case.

[Jersey Girl 7]

He looked like such a dork!!!

[Tap Dancer]

Is this the guy? Randall Joe Utterback (http://members.socket.net/~audrainsheriff/audrain/utterback.html)

[peachysquirt21]

I believe that is him. I still cannot get over what she saw in this guy.

[Tap Dancer]

Yeah, he's definitely a dork. :lol:

[LooksLikeCRicci]

Yeah, but she was SUPER young and was probably flattered that an older man was interested in her.

Creepy, don't get me wrong.... I feel so bad for the victim in this.

[UMFanatic]

I just saw this one not too long ago. Maybe it was last week sometime. I'd say sometime in the past month Lifetime showed this one.

[benmmaddog]

you guys are right that is the right one. i was in jail with him at the time. i was gone when he escaped. he escaped by saying he slip and hurt he's ankle in the shower so the deputy took him to the ER room.I think it was after they (him and a deputy) got out of the ER room he pushed ,overpowered,knock him over, something like that and took off running.(he didn't have leg chains on cause he hurt his ankle). he had to have the help of that deputy ,cause that deputy was at least twice his size. that and the area he took off in,you could see in a block in any direction.plus that deputy resigned right after that and they talked alot. i had heard that he was going to escaped to england. i would updates to this too. right before i left the jail i think he was missing a few cards from the deck

Thanks for posting benmmaddog. Very interesting that the deputy may have helped him escape. I wonder if he was ever charged. I was shocked when I found out he was never apprehended so it seems plausible that he's in another country. I feel sorry for his ex-girlfriend though as she probably still looks over her shoulder.

[greatgarrett2]

Yeah, I guess placing fear into someone is worse than actually hurting them physically because they live with it 24 hours a day.......G.Daniel Walker said that.

Feel sorry for the X girlfriend tho.

[Corky Kneivel]

I dunno guys, my conspiracy detector is going off big time here. I got odds that benmaddog is really Randall Joe Utterback and is trying to do the old "dipsey doodle" on everyone!! Notice how he oh-so casually mentions that he "heard he was going to escaped to england". As if we're to believe he overheard Utterback describing escaped plans he fake he slip in the shower and hurt he's ankle and Utterback was going straight from the prison to england. Man, that's at LEAST 50 miles! I mean, maybe he could hitchhike and find someone to drive him all the way to paris, which is the capital of ireland. And then take a trolley train to europe, which is the capital of england but I doubt it. But I'm getting ahead of myself anyway, that's all part of the deliberate misinformation aspect of this escaped!!

So now imagine this hairy handed gent, running amok in Kent. Maybe he's been overheard in Mayfair. They better stay away from him, he'll rip their lungs out, Jim.

Now law enforcement travels all the way to england-towne, has a butchers around Charlie Brown, and Randall Joe is nowhere to be Tuppenced. Why?!

Because he never was going to escaped to england at all!

Nor was he going to escaped to france or argentina or zimbabwe either. He never planned to escaped to any of the baskrillion other far away areas one could escaped to.

Because benmaddog is really Randall Joe Utterback and he's posting from a bunker somewhere in southern Missouri hoping we'll all fall for his merry ol' england ruse!!

I mean could you imagine Randall Joe in London? Utterback doesn't necessarily strike me as the cosmopolitan type. Making the jump from Hogswaller, Mizzou to having tea and crumpets in Stepney-Upon-Brumbleshire-Upon-Avenswood Downs might be a little harder than old Randall thinks. And by the way...DUDE'S NAME IS RANDALL!! I think he's going to have a hard time with Brits laughing in his face as he goes around telling people "Hi, I'm RANDY. And you are...?"

seriously though this is my weirdest post

[wiseguy182]

Corky, your posts are awesome!

[kadrmas15]

Hmm, Corky that is interesting. Yeah, I have been of the opinion that Utterback is not in another country and probably isnt even in another state, his family is probably helping him financially and is hiding him somewhere most likely.

:rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Wow. How randomly awesome. I was actually in the "conspiracy boat" myself... but I don't think I can top that post. :)

[bocomo]

I grew up around Randal. He looks rough in the mugshots but was always real into nice stuff. he always had the best stereo equipment and road racing bicycles. He usually had at least 2 crotch rocket motorcycles that were extremely souped up. He liked to go really fast. He was actually pretty flashy and had quite a bit of cash because he is the type of guy that would work three jobs. As far as the ex-girlfriend, she liked to start crap and get revenge on people. I have no doubt that he wanted her back but I don't think he went nuts on her. Knowing her and him I'm pretty sure she said that to get him in trouble with the police. As far as being in Missouri I would bet anything that he is not. He is known to be a pretty crafty and I would bet he is in another state working in a factory saving all of his cash for quick moves so that whenever they show him on T.V. he can jump up and move on a moments notice. As for England, I could see that. I'm telling you Randall could be anyone he wanted to be. He can dress the part and have the accent. He did pretty good interpretations.

[kadrmas15]

Wow, could this be a posting from Randall Utterback himself?

[bocomo]

I'm not Randall. I'm sure he wouldn't be stupid enough to use an IP address that could be tracked back to the area he is living in. Although one could always hack a machine, make it a bot, and use that IP appearing to be in a completely different state.

[Todd Mueller]

Wow... He could interpret English from people from Englad??? Cool... :lol:

That description sounds an awful lot like Austin Powers!

Seeing how Randall did not kill anyone, wouldn't the statute of limitations have passed on any other crime he did committ?

[lilmissd]

Yeah, seeing pictures of this guy he looks like a total dweeb! I don't think he'd be stupid enough to go back to Missouri when he knows that he's wanted by the police there. If the ex-girlfriend was smart, she should take out a restraining order on the creep, that way if he tries to contact her or go near her at all, he gets thrown in the slammer! This guy's a total loser!:talk:

[LooksLikeCRicci]

I'm not trying to start anything here, but for someone like Randall Utterback, a restraining order means nothing. If anything, it would only make him that much more determined to contact his ex...

Just my thought.

[sisilyg55]

As I was reading all of the comments that people had left about Randall, I was amazed how little they really knew about him. So many think he looks like a dork, he is living in England, his family is supporting him, his oh poor little ex-girl friend. Well, I am family, and I do not know where he is, I am not supporting him, he is not a dork, his ex-girl friend is okay and is out and about without fear. I am so glad that everyone has an opinion of where he is, because I sure don't and I am a family member. I hope he is okay and I truly miss him and feel a big void in my heart because he is gone. It feels like he is dead and I do not know where he is buried. What was protrayed on the show may led many to think he was somewhat of a cruel and mean person, but I grew up with him and I know different. There are many out there who know the real Randall and after reading all of these comments, I realize that even after 13 1/2 years people are still clueless to the real story behind the life of Randall ------. So before you jump to coconclusions, think before you react and realize that there is more to the story than what was ever told.

Yes I agree people are entitled to their opinions and we were voicing ours. Granted the only thing we know about Randall Utterback is what was shown on the UM segment. Nerdy is definitely a subjective term but I think it was well established he was possessive as after his girlfriend wouldn't get back with him he kidnapped her! I really have no opinion where he is now. I would have thought he would have been found by now so it is entirely possible he's no longer in the US. I also would have thought the statute of limitations would have been up by now (anyone know?).

You said we don't know the whole story so here you're chance to give your side. We would like to know any more info about the case that UM left out so feel free.

[James T]

Yes please enlighten us, otherwise how do you expect anybody to have a different view of him than his rap sheet?

[sisilyg55]

Well, for one thing I am not saying everything that happen was not false or true, but a lot of it was blown up to make Randall out to some kind of animal that he wasn't. You see I am his sister. I do not know where he is, but I do know what he is as a person and how we were raised as kids and what happened to him is a reflection of that. As for the limititations it will not stand because he was never convicted of a crime so the 7 years will not even matter. I have often wonder how he has survived all these years but it has not been because of me. I am his sister, but it is very hard knowing my younger brother is living his life this way. I know Deniece, and have seen her through the years and have listened to many of the different stories that she has told. What was said on UM was different than what was said in court, so it made me upset when I saw the UM segment and seen her act the way she did. I wish things could be different for Randall and I could see my brother because I have kids and they miss their uncle. The guy on the UM may acted like a jerk and if this was how Randall was, I myself never saw him that way. I did call UM myself and ask why they did not contact me when family members were suppose to be contacted. Well their response was they did not know there was a sister. That came from the parentes themselves. Randalls life was not easy. I am not making excuses for him, but if anyone has been through what Randall had been through maybe just maybe people would just try to understand a little more. He tried to hold a family together that could not and felt like everything caved in on him. It has been very hard on me these years not knowing where he is, kowing people think these awful things about him, seeing his face plaster across the Internet or on the post office wall, but I also know that Randall made that decision to escape. Before all this happened, Randall was the happiest person I knew and my kids loved their uncle. Now all they have is their memories of him.

Thanks for posting that. I am sorry for you that you haven't been able to see your brother for so many years. I am curious what was said in court that was different from what was mentioned in the UM segment if you don't mind saying.

[sisilyg55]

The one thing that stood out was when Deneice said about Randall asking her to marry him if he would take her back to her vehicle. On TV, if you remember, she said no, but in court she said she would marry him so he would take him back to her vehicle. Now this was the incident in which he was suppose to have our dads truck. I saw him shortly after that when he was to stay away from her and I told him to stay away because I did not want him to be in anymore trouble, however, what happened on that final day I truly believe both were at fault but Randall will forever pay for the mistake of trying to make something work between him and Deniece and everything just went terribly wrong. I saw him in court shortly after he was arrested and he was not the brother I always knew. It saddens me to ever think that my baby brother had fallen the way he had. We were always so close and now there is nothing. So I know for those who do not know him, they will think the worst of him, but I will always believe that what happened to Randall was the result of breakdown within our own family and to this day it is still broken. I only hope that wherever he is he is safe, and as long as he is a fugitive I do not and can not see him. Back when that all went down, I was questioned for quite some time because I am his sister, but I have not seen nor heard from him since 1994. Because I personally have a brother that is a fugitive, I look at things different. There is always more to the story than what is ever told and I know deep down Randall is still a good person but because of his choices society has marked him as a violent and dangerous individual. Many times I had heard Deneice say that if anyone defened Randall, her family will take care of them. No one needs to do anything. The law will take care of it in its own due time. I still have a lot of sadness in me where Randall is concern, but who wouldn't if it was your brother wouldn't you feel this way? He is not a dweeb, a dork, he was just someone who may have loved someone too much. Randall an Deniece had both stayed at our house many years ago before all this, and all these signs of possessiveness were never shown, so when all this came out, it was a shock to me. I hate to think that I will never see my brother again, but the truth is, if he is never found or he never turns himself the reality is I will leave this world knowing the last time I saw my brother was in 1994.

[James T]

I really do not care if he is a nerd or not- in the pictures he does look nerdy but who cares? the fact is he has been on the run for 14 years because he does not have the guts to serve time for the crimes he did, people can make excuses as they always do where these people are concerned about his upbringing etc, but he chose to do what he did and then not to accept his punishment.

[niece]

I miss Randall very much and I wish I could see and talk to him. He has two great nieces and one great nephew that he has never met and I know he would personally enjoy spending time with them. But I guess we won't get that oportunity to ever get that. All I can do is pray that he is alright and GOD is looking over him. I may not agree with what he did (escaping) but he made that choice for himself. Does not mean that I don't love him any less. He has a family that misses him very much and are very saddened because of his disappearance. I hope he knows how much he is truely missed. I am hoping one day this will all end and I can be reunited with Randall. I just want to give him a hug and let him know that I love him. What he was protrayed as is not the Randall I knew or will remember to know.

[sisilyg55]

:eek: HMmmmmmmm! How quickly people will cast a stone against those they don't know. I see that you are from England and you are so quick to judge someone you are basing a 20 minute story on. Yes the guy that protrayed my brother looked like a dork, but my brother is not a dork. I am not defending Randall. There are many people that are on the run and for whatever reason... they made that choice. I have to believe he will do what is right in the end, but until then I have to hope and pray he is okay. I assume you that are so judgmental of him have never had something like this happen to you personally. Believe me, I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I don't want my brother locked up, but if he was, at least I would be able to see him. As it is right now, I have no relationship with him so why don't you try putting yourself in my shoes and think about that.

[Titan826]

I see that you are from England

Just a quick question, why are you bringing his nationality into the discussion?

[sisilyg55]

What I meant was about the comment from England was not toward Randall but from someone who had a comment about Randall who says they are from England. The reason I brought that up was because they were so quick to judge from another country and base their decision from a 20 minute story. I am sure it will never matter what I really have to say about Randall anyway, because for the most part people have already decided what kind of person he is and that is their right, but I know and that is all that matters. After I saw the segment on Randall, I had a different opinion of that show and how they handle the truth behind the story.:confused: :wave:

[James T]

I think you will find he was asking why you are bringing up my being British, I would think any rational person wherever they are would find this individual to be a classic example of an obsessive paranoid control freak.

You have told us what a great guy he is but the evidence says otherwise, if it was my brother who acted towards a woman like that, made threats against her and her family, stalked her, ran her off the road which could have killed her, abducted her at gunpoint etc then I would like to see him behind bars and I would disown him, the fact is rather than pay for his crimes he has been running for 14 years depriving the victim of justice and his family of the chance to see him.

You have not really said the allegations against him are wrong, the only problem seems to be the irrelevant marriage issue- maybe she did say it & I believe she probably did agree to it otherwise he would have likely killed her as usually happens with possessive people like him- amazing what having a gun at your head will entice people to say.

[sisilyg55]

:bluesbros :bluesbros :bluesbros :rolleyes: I have nothing against anyones heritages and no I do not agree with everything that may or may not have happened on that day rather it was my brother or not. What I am saying is that the story got blown up and where the gun was concern yes he did have the gun and I do not agree with that but the incident where she agreed to go back with him, I don't think it was with him at that time, however it was with him on that final day. Doesn't make it right, but the fact is they were both in the wrong and Randall made more wrong choices. I do not agree that he escape, what he did to Deniece and if he had stayed and did his time he would likely be free now however he is still my brother and I will always love him for the brother I knew and miss the relationship that we did have. It has been hard knowing that we can never have a relationship as long as he is still a fugitive. I do not know how he has survive this long and only hope he is still alive. So it doesn't really matter how or what people think of me as his sister because I grew up with him and somewhere along the way something changed within him and because of that change his life as he knew it is forever lost. So I apologize to anyone that thinks I am juding who they are from any country, because that was not my intentions. I was just trying to get my point across that it would almost be impossible to make a rational decision about someone based on a 20 minute show about someone. When they zoomed in on the pictures of Randall and focused on his eyes it made him look like an evil person, but don't you think if he was such a evil person he would have committed more crimes during these last years?

[James T]

No offence taken, most of us Brits are vermin anyway judging from what can be seen on our streets and television.;)

I do not really believe in good and evil, I do however think certain people have something in their genetics that makes them behave a certain way that most of us would not, his personality comes across as totally controlling and unable to accept it as being over- there have been many cases where this ends up in the woman being murdered by the former partner despite restraining orders and the like.

None of us know what he has been doing the last 14 years-he may well have been committing crimes or he may have started a new law abiding life somewhere having changed his appearance radically, she is certainly partly to blame because she should have gotten rid of him the moment he started dictating what she could do and who she could see etc- it might not have made any difference to him although it might have made him less hung up on her, but everytime she just put up with it and stayed with him it sent a message that she could be controlled.

Love the Blues Brothers graphic:cool:

[Titan826]

I was indeed bringing up James T's being British, not whatever sisilyg55 thought I was bringing up.

[sisilyg55]

:cool: :) You know all these years I have never found a place where I could even vent my anger, frustration, sadness or any emotions where I feel for Randall and this situation. I wish more that anything that Randall would quit living his life the way he is, confront the issues and start a new life without all this hanging over his head. Many people do not agree with me because I am his sister, but I want to see my brother but not as long as he is a fugitive. I want my kids, my grandkids to see their uncle. His grandmother passed away and he couldn't be there and our other grandmother is not doing so well so there are things that reflect big time because he made the choice to leave the way he did. I went through my own agrgy time with him, but I still love him. I won't go into our own family, but I will say he came from such a dysfunctional family that the pressure finally was too much. I am not making excueses for what he may or may not have done, but I know deep within my heart that Randall has a good heart and is not the violent person that was portrayed. If no one agrees with me, that is okay because all I have to hold onto is what our lives was like before all this happened.::(

[Diesel5494]

This case intrigues me. See I am from a nearby town in Missouri, in fact the one from which he escaped. I, my father, and a bounty hunter did research on Randall. He isn't a control freak, a lunatic, or has he escaped to England. Most law enforcement agencies believe he is with family in Eastern Canada, but he only knows. He, to my conclusion, just had a fight with his girlfriend that went too far. It could happen to anyone. Whether or not he is a dork is completely irrelevant. He escaped because, I believe, the punishment did not fit the crime. No one would stand for such injustice. Maybe they wouldn't go to such extremes, but I believe the proposed punishment is too harsh. I have talked to members of his family and some of his friends, he isnt a monster or a psychopath. And please dont get the image of the haunted victim of the girlfriend, I've heard tell of her bragging around Centralia of Randall's fate. My heart goes out to the sister and other family, and I pray G-d is with Randall in his difficult new lifestyle.

[unsolvedmysteriesfan]

Rumors don't go well here. The law is the law, and you don't get to choose to escape just because you don't want to serve the time. That in itself is a crime.

Dude...HE STALKED HER! Think what you like, but common sense dictates, along with most state laws, when someone breaks it off with you, you do not follow them around and terrorize them on a deserted road. You accept the ending of the relationship and move on with your life. He committed a serious crime. The fact the Denise was not assaulted or worse, murdered is a miracle in itself. Frankly, the woman has earned the right to brag about his fate. He terrorized her with mental abuse during and after their relationship.

I don't wish ill will upon his family. However, Randall needs to come back and face the music. He needs help. Emotional abuse does not stop with one person. It's a control issue.

You are entitled to your opinion, but I have had friends assaulted and stalked by exes of both sexes. No one deserves what happened to Denise and I'm sure others on this board will concur with me. If not, everyone has the right to feel the way they wish.

[Diesel5494]

That would all be true, except he didnt stalk her and he didnt assault her. If he wanted to, he would've, but he didn't. The story got blown out of proportion. He should go to jail for escape, but not much else. I don't condone escape. He saw his position unfair and decided to go to an extreme. As for that drama queen, don't believe her to be a victim.

He did stalk her. What are you smoking? This guy is dangerous and should be behind bars so that Denise and everyone else is safe.

Don't be shocked if the poster is actually Randall himself, we have some sickos here on this site from time to time.

Yep, I'm Randall, come get me. Im in England. And while you're at it, get the full story. Logic dictates that cases on shows like these are dramatizations. And by logic, I mean the disclaimer that says "This is a dramatization". They are for entertainment purposes. Watch the news for real cases or talk to those involved. If he were dangerous, which he could be, wouldn't he attack her?

If you find his wanted poster, it SAID he was wanted for stalking and other crimes. Somehow, I would love to ask what color the sky in your world is. Do you think she is imagining all that he did, or do you think she's lying. I think she's telling the truth. Get a grip.

Some people have nothing better to do with their time. I am not sure if I should laugh or feel pity.

[sisilyg55]

:confused: After reading all the comments, I cannot help but wonder how so many people have so many comments and ideas about Randall when they do not know him. There is so much more to the story than what has been protrayed. Like I said, I do not agree that Randall escaped, but the sentences that he was offered ----75 years or 3 life sentences were not right. Murderes do not even get that much time and if punishment fitting the crime is suppose to work, well this case should be looked at again. Today is Randall's birthday and it is always a sad day for me. It is one birthday I will never get to celebrate with a member of my family.... just in my memory. I would not wish this situation on anyones family and for anyone who has a sibling that may be a fugitive, I feel for you because it feels like Randall is dead and I do not know where he is buried. So when everyone writes all those cruel things, remember there are two sides to a story and believe me one day the truth will come out and maybe then I can celebrate my brothers birthday again.:(

[bryndis]

Interesting fact: I heard from someone that men who pursue the hardest (women) are usually the most abusive. Follow you around (this happened to me), go out of their way to win you (isn't that what he did with her?) give them flowers, try to "win" them or old-fashioned court them.

The reason people have so many comments and ideas about Randall is because they have seen a presentation on his story on a nationally televised episode of Unsolved Mysteries that was repeated numerous times in syndication and that is all they know. Right or wrong, that is all we have to go on.

That being said, I really doubt you'll find much support for your brother on these forums.

[bryndis]

Why do people come on here and claim they are someone's relative, or know them? I wouldn't claim a guy like that to be my brother even if he was.

Sort of reminds me of the Adam Emery case. The families of both his wife and Adam's both proudly claimed their relations to them, even after they savagely butchered that poor young man, Jason.

[crystaldawn]

Thanks for posting oproudo! Certainly surprising news! I take it from what you said that your mom is the girl in the UM segment who Randal kidnapped. How is she doing now? To my knowledge Randall has never posted on here. I think someone said they were but it seemed like sarcasm. Randal's sister has posted a few times though.

[oproudo]

yes...he is..but idk if it is quite safe to say my mothers full name on the posts ..like i said in my first post, i do not know wut all the circumstances are..my adopted father wanted me to move in with him in 2004 and my mother hated it..she did not want me to leave..so she told me everything...she felt like i didnt need to worry about some crazy guy in missouri that has done nothing for me when my adopted father has done everything for me..she also wanted to wait till i was old enough to know every detail about the situation and why things had happened this way..and THIS IS NO JOKE. for all the people who think that im another person just trying to make a fling out of this whole thing...contact me on if youd like to see pictures and i will give u links to some of my webpages..when i first say randall on mugshots.com i literally sank in my seat..there is wayyy tooo striking of resemblence and it is definatley hard to believe forme.but every1 ive shown and knows about thesituation says there is no difference in looks and apperance..except im not a little nerd like him..lol..but seriously..please dont post ugly rude replys going against the fact of me being his son..this is already a big burden on me..so please..serious responses(like the last one) appreciate it..lol..have a good one guys..ill be on here all day

[oproudo]

I miss Randall very much and I wish I could see and talk to him. He has two great nieces and one great nephew that he has never met and I know he would personally enjoy spending time with them. But I guess we won't get that oportunity to ever get that. All I can do is pray that he is alright and GOD is looking over him. I may not agree with what he did (escaping) but he made that choice for himself. Does not mean that I don't love him any less. He has a family that misses him very much and are very saddened because of his disappearance. I hope he knows how much he is truely missed. I am hoping one day this will all end and I can be reunited with Randall. I just want to give him a hug and let him know that I love him. What he was protrayed as is not the Randall I knew or will remember to know.
you think his neices and nephews feel bad..what about his son?!!!!!! do ANY of you know who i am? did any of you know that his ex was pregnent?!

[crystaldawn]

you think his neices and nephews feel bad..what about his son?!!!!!! do ANY of you know who i am? did any of you know that his ex was pregnent?!

I don't know if you're asking that question to "niece" or the posters or general but of none of us from the board knew she was pregnant. UM didn't mention it and I can certainly see why. Aside from the relatives of Randall's on the board the rest of us have felt nothing but sympathy for your mom. I can't imagine how tough this must be for you but I'm glad you had a loving and supportive dad that raised you. I was always surprised that
Randall had never been captured because it seemed like it would be an easy case to solve. Some speculate he's in another country.

[oproudo]

honestly...i could care less where he is..i just hope he is miserable..i was spekticle about telling my mother that i was posting these comments on here, when i did tell her..she said make sure that the woman who turned him in was his ex before her..like i said, i have no clue the full specticle of all of the situation..but i know for a fact we ran..i was born in a different state and i know my mom and my grandparents..uncles and aunt moved out of missouri because of him..she has told me he stalked her..abused her..and threatend her on a number of occasions..if there is anyone thats has mixed feelings it is me..a part of me wants to know who he is..his real personality but then again, with how much grief he has costed everyone..i would really like to hurt him..lol.as bad as that sounds..my mother is he strongest person i know next to my late grandfather..and if he tried t hurt my mom mentally or physically then he deserves the worst..anyman who feels to hurt women in any sort of way is a punk and a true criminal..i will shortly post a picture of my self next to his mugshot and you tell me what you think

hi there..i dont know if you still get on this page and check the comments anymore..but do you remember randalls girlfriend before denise williams? cathy ? im not obligated to say her lastname due to the fact i really dont know if i can..lol..but she is my mother..and randall is my biological father..if you really are his sister..then u can see a true definition in our different pictures

[crystaldawn]

I can see a little resemblance but you are much better looking than him.

Thanks for clarifying, I thought at first you were Denise's son. It sounds like Randall pulled the same behaviour on your mom as he did on Denise. Do you know if Randall knows he has a son?

[oproudo]

haha..thank u for calling me good looking..about 6 months ago i had a buzz cut and aviators on and took a pic and it looks jus like his for some reason..like perect...its kinda scary ya know..like looking in a mirror..but no..i dont think he has any clue at all..my mother is actually going to check out the posts here shorty and mabye she will post on here..umm ya i dont think he has any clue and thats the part that effects me the most..ya know..i dont care for him as much as a whole diff family that doesnt know me or anything about me..but i mean, ive done good with my life...and if they did or do know..its there loss ya kow?im going to get back to you guys on what my mother says actually happend and what she encountered..thanks..

[oproudo]

ok.....my mother just filled me in on information...she was 7 months pregnent with me which would have been (april of 90) and she went to indianapolis to vist my aunt who was diagnosed with a brain tumor, she said she had came back and randall had made accusations that she was cheating on him the whole time she was gone which was impossible due to the fact she was a state away..the argument had escaladed and he had thrown a hammer at my mothers head..there was a lot of abuse verbally and physically..she was in fear of her life and mine so she left him..and never heard from him since

[proudcat1971]

OK Otto---YOU shouldn't have your real name on here either. I am Otto's mother and its been quite interesting going through here reading these posts. Maybe I can give a little insight, there are obviously things that alot of people don't know. I met Randall when I was almost 18, he was 27. We had some great times together, lived together in Centralia in a little apartment over the dentist's office. We honestly didn't use any type of protection and ended up pregnant. We were both very happy, and actually rented a small house and started acquiring baby furniture and clothes. My little sister (at that time she was 7 years old) was diagnosed with a brain tumor and I went to Indy to Riley's Hospital for her surgery. I was there for a little over a week and when I returned Randall was a completely different person. Accused me of several things and over the next few days was very verbally and sometimes physically abusive. I finally left after the hammer incident and returned to my family. This should answer the question as to whether or not Randall knew he had a son...he most definitely did and even had to take a test to establish paternity for child support. I never did see one dime--I even went to the court date in Columbia, he never showed and conveniently quit his job to avoid paying anything. I did not hear anything again until the FBI showed up on my doorstep and took me into their office. They informed me of what had happened, that Randall had escaped, and had made direct death threats against me through the grapevine. By this time I was married and was actually not very concerned that he could find me--I lived somewhere else and had a different last name. I do still take precautions--my phone number is unlisted, I live in the country, we have a pitbull and a few guns, but I honestly don't think I'll ever need them. I can say that Randall had never been that way before, and yes-the one poster was right--he did like very fast motorcycles. He didn't do drugs, detested them--wouldn't even take an aspirin. I never really met his family--he had told me that his father had already disowned one of his family members (I think his brother?), and he didn't want his parents to know that I was pregnant. Being as young as I was at the time I wasn't really concerned over that matter. We had some good times--I remember camping out for Motley Crue tickets in the middle of winter in the snow (I was about 4 or 5 mos pregnant when we saw that show), just going for drives, going over to his friend Mike's, if we went to McDonalds he always got the filet-o-fish--was his favorite. Something obviously happened in that week I was gone and it just kept going downhill for him. Originally I just thought that he was immature and couldn't handle the responsibility of a child. But then he went and pulled that other stuff with his ex so I just don't know. It is sad for Otto, I tried to do all I could to raise him right--I went to college full-time and worked full-time. We didn't get to spend alot of time together when he was little because of this. I met another man, we got married and he adopted Otto. He had been an OK dad, but after a while not a great husband. Otto is a good man, he's a wonderful brother and will always stand up for what is right. A little hot-tempered, but thats why he excelled at sports. I have no idea where Randall is, I have been told both speculations from the FBI--with family in Canada, or with family somewhere around Fishers, IN. I don't think he's either of those places or they would have already caught him. There are two sides to every story...I DO believe he did those things because I never would have thought he would have done the things to me that he did...he just changed. Maybe something just snapped. Well, that's all for now...maybe this will clear up just a couple things or a couple of questions.

[crystaldawn]

Thanks for posting proudcat1971 and giving us the details. You said he was opposed to drugs but the abrupt change in his behaviour makes me wonder if he had started to take them when you were away. Mental illness could be another explanation I suppose. In the UM segment it seemed him and Denise had a good relationship too until she left him. Its good you got out of there when you did.

[TracyLynnS]

Oproudo and Proudcat1971, thanks so much to both of you for speaking with us about this case. I know it must be difficult and painful, especially to reach out to strangers to share such private details of what you've been going through. Thankfully, you both were able to escape, survive, and get on with your lives.

Otto, I'm so glad your mom was there for you. She sounds like a wonderful person.

And Proudcat, it sounds like you did a great job raising Otto, especially considering the fact that you were so young and facing all the things that RU was putting you through. Otto seems like a great kid!

[notruth7268]

it is nice that you have an opinion, even if it is wrong. Randall is not a coward who will not face his crimes. his is falsly accused and it is his ex-girlfriend who is the coward that will not face her crimes. Perjury that ruins the life of another is a much worse crime than loving someone more than you love yourself.

[notruth7268]

This case intrigues me. See I am from a nearby town in Missouri, in fact the one from which he escaped. I, my father, and a bounty hunter did research on Randall. He isn't a control freak, a lunatic, or has he escaped to England. Most law enforcement agencies believe he is with family in Eastern Canada, but he only knows. He, to my conclusion, just had a fight with his girlfriend that went too far. It could happen to anyone. Whether or not he is a dork is completely irrelevant. He escaped because, I believe, the punishment did not fit the crime. No one would stand for such injustice. Maybe they wouldn't go to such extremes, but I believe the proposed punishment is too harsh. I have talked to members of his family and some of his friends, he isnt a monster or a psychopath. And please dont get the image of the haunted victim of the girlfriend, I've heard tell of her bragging around Centralia of Randall's fate. My heart goes out to the sister and other family, and I pray G-d is with Randall in his difficult new lifestyle.

im sure that i probably know more about this case than most of you because im was friends with both randall and his accuser. anyone who knows the both of them knows the truth of who is the criminal in this case

[starbaby70]

Glad to hear from Otto's mother. I remember when you picked that name out for him. I am "his friend Mike's" ex wife. I have often wondered what happened to you and the baby, not that he's a baby anymore.

Now to the actual point of posting on here.....
Most of you posting only know what you've seen on TV. It was NOT that way. I knew him & Deniece. How can anyone (including the police) believe that what he did was stalking or kidnapping??? She held a loaded gun in that car, and she very well knew how to use it.

What is stalking....Deniece sitting down the road at 3am watching for him to come home through a pair of binoculars??? But our fine police force didn't want to hear about that.

The punishment they were wanting to hand out did not fit the crime. I hope they never find him. I feel sorry for his family, but I hope they never catch him.

People need to realize that the punishment for Missouri's 1st stalking case was greater than what most murderer's get. They were talking 75 years to life.
And as far as I'm concerned, Deniece caused most of what she got. And yes, I'll tell it to her face. You can't call or write to someone that you have an ex-parte against and then have them arrested for coming to see you. Everyone around here that knows her, knows what really happened. I will never feel sorry for her. She's building some really bad karma for herself.

[LooksLikeCRicci]

Is that what happened? Was there a no-contact order against Randall and Denise baited him into violating it?

I'm not down with that... in fact, it's the bane of my existance in my career. I absolutely believe that those no-contact orders should work both ways....

HOWEVER... like I tell my clients, just because your ex calls you DOES NOT MEAN that you are obligated to answer... especially when there's a court order in place telling you not to. (Funny enough: I had this conversation with a client the other day. I actually said, "Dude, when the restraining orders come flying out, it's pretty safe to say the relationship is over.")

Relationships are a tricky bit. However, we all make our choices. I sympathize with Randall's family for what they are going through, but he's not doing himself any favors by being on the run. There are lots of things that attorneys can do to get his sentence reviewed... especially if they think it was too harsh. However, the fact that Randall's been on the run so long tends to negate any argument he may have for a reduced sentence.

I appreciate hearing from Randall's son and ex-girlfriend. The similar story from the ex clears up any doubt I may have had regarding Randall's conviction. The hammer incident sent chills down my spine. I'm glad that you got out of the relationship relatively unscathed.

[justins5256]

im sure that i probably know more about this case than most of you because im was friends with both randall and his accuser. anyone who knows the both of them knows the truth of who is the criminal in this case

Do you honestly expect anyone on this board who has just seen the Unsolved Mysteries segment to have sympathy for the guy? Do you think some random poster who just came out of the woodwork and registered yesterday is really going to change anyone's mind by making such vague statements? If what you're saying is true about knowing Randall and Denise then you probably do know more than the average poster here, I'll give you that. But all you're basically saying is that Randall is innocent, and your only support for your argument is that you know them, and we don't.

So enlighten us. Seriously, what was "off" in UM's portrayal of the case? Anyone who has been watching the show for awhile knows that UM does have the tendency to embellish facts and takes some artistic license with many of the stories. It's not hard to swallow that they may have gotten the facts wrong on Randall and Denise.

It may seem like I'm flaming you, but I'm really not. If you gave some reasons why you thought Randall was innocent I'm sure people here would be willing to listen. But just coming on here and saying he is innocent and that anyone who thinks otherwise is wrong, without any other basis, is just stirring the pot.

[starbaby70]

I knew Randall, and I knew he was possive of his girlfriends. I never once saw him be violent with them. I never even HEARD that he had been violent until this Denise thing.

Most of what I know about this actual case came from his father, best friend, and a neighbor.

The neighbor said that he told multiple investigators that he had seen Denise sitting in her car, watching through binocculars, for Randall to come home. But those investigators all ignored him. And, according to him, when he mentioned it to his lawyer, he was told that the jury would not listen because it would put the victim on trial. (where she should be)

His father and friend are the ones who told me about the phone calls and letters she would write. I saw one of those letters where she discusses how much she missed him while she was away at school. The letter was not dated, so there was no way to know when it was sent. (before or after the ex-parte) His dad swears it was after. So yes I believe he was baited.

I don't think he was going to get a fair trial. They couldn't get a change of venue and her family has money and is well known around here. They wouldn't hear of anything that might put the victim on trial. So what kind of defense do you think he had??? And, considering it was Misouri's first stalking case after they passed the law, they wanted to make an example out of him.

Plus, I know a few too many things about Denise, and the things she had done prior to this, to ever believe anything she had to say. UM only gave HER story, and conveniently left out anything that might make her look bad.
Both were wrong, both done wrong, only Randall was going to pay.

She won't have to look over her shoulder her whole life. She is living just fine. I have seen her from time to time. I just hope her new husband knows what kind of person she really is.

[TracyLynnS]

Starbaby, are you trying to say that Denise was a trouble maker and you hope her new husband knows what kind of person he's married to because she's that dangerous?

But here it's been about 20 years since she was involved in the Randall Utterbach case and she's not pulled any kind of weird stunt that you claim she's capable of.

And with Randall, we've got at least the violence against Denise and the violence against the previous girlfriend to prove a pattern in his behavior. All we've got to prove a pattern in Denise's behavior is two posts from a stranger on the internet named Starbaby.

[starbaby70]

Actually, I'm in a round about way trying to say that Denise was not exactly faithful to anyone. I know for a fact that she slept with 3 different men in one night. Not a rumor, fact. She was willing.

I remember lots of stories about the crap she pulled BEFORE her & Randall. She was a wild child that always got what she wanted, no matter what she had to do to get it.

She was a high school girl that broke up several relationships just to toss the guy away after.

I do not know what she has done in the last 15 years. I have stayed away from her and her crowd. But then again, Randall hasn't been caught, so I assume he's not pulled anything with anyone else either. Maybe they grew up and realized that it isn't worth the trouble anymore. But, if Denise is still the same person she was back then, her husband better not turn his back because she is a liar and she will do whatever it takes to get her way.

[TracyLynnS]

Actually, I'm in a round about way trying to say that Denise was not exactly faithful to anyone. I know for a fact that she slept with 3 different men in one night. Not a rumor, fact. She was willing.

I remember lots of stories about the crap she pulled BEFORE her & Randall. She was a wild child that always got what she wanted, no matter what she had to do to get it.

Okay, so she's a slut. But sleeping around with everyone in sight is a bit different than beating, stalking, and trying to shoot someone to death.

Well, she was the one holding the gun in the car when she was supposedly kidnapped. Now I personally have never been in that situation, but I would think that if I had the only gun in my hand, I would consider who should be afraid for their life. And I don't think it would be me. If he really wanted to die, I could help him with that.

All I'm saying is that she was just as much a part in that whole thing as he was, yet everyone only blames Randall. He was led on, baited, betrayed, and then arrested. When witnesses come forward telling the police that SHE was stalking HIM and it was not investigated, that's not how it's supposed to work. The whole "justice" system was not in play. They were only worried about making an example out of him.

I believe that if anyone really wanted to see justice done, then a change in venue should have been granted, new lawyers, new judge, and new investigators that would look into her also. But that wasn't going to happen here. The system bled his family dry and there was no more that they could do. He had no choice but to run. He's the one who has to look over his shoulder for the rest of his life, not her.

[everybodylovesrs]

Sounds like starbaby either is Randall or is best buds with him trying to justify his actions. You've seen her around huh? Sounds like Randall, still stalking his old girlfriend..

[starbaby70]

Yes, that's right, I'm stalking the woman. Living in a small town and working in a store where everybody shops has nothing to do with seeing her around.

Or maybe I am Randall, I just in the last few years developed tits!

And no, we weren't best buds, just friends. And I don't think he got a fair shake.

You people go on believing whatever you want. You should know that you can't believe eveything you see on TV. I thought for a while that maybe you all might want to hear some of the other side of the story, but I see that you really don't.

Believe it or not, most people that knew Randall and Deniece know wht really happened. Most understand why he ran. Most know that she is off her rocker. You all didn't know him & only want to believe what you see on TV.

Funny, I noticed that everyone here that did know him understand what really happened. You all can just go on believing what comes out of the mouth of 2 women that were scorned. Hell hath no wrath like a woman scorned.

Randall is alive and living in Omaha...

[sisilyg55]

:It has been awhile since I have read any of the messages on the site, and I was surprise to see the ones from Randall's son and former girlfriend. I did not know about him until about 3 years ago and found out by accident. I did not know where they lived or how to get a hold of them. I hope one day to meet them and let them know that because of what my brother may or may not have done will not keep us from meeting.
If in fact my brother behaved the way that is protrayed, he kept that side of his life from me. I am not by no means condoning his behavior, but it is really hard when you are on this side of he coin. I understand the anger and frustration that his son and my nephew has and I do not blame him. It will be 15 years on July 1 since he escaped and I know his life cannot be easy, but the choices he made was for reasons known only to him.
I never saw this horrible side of my brother, only the fun side he allowed me to see, so in that people should try to understand how hard it is for me to comprehend these stories of abuse, stalking, anger, and strange behavior. I only hope he figures out that running is not the answer and do what is right. I would love to see a picture of Otto, to see if he looks like Randall. If I ever get the chance to meet him that would be one of the high lights in my life. I never thought I would have a blood nephew or neice and to find out this many years later that I do was so exciting. I hope and pray that Otto will not hold anything against me for what my brother did. I would gladly and be proud to welcome him into my family if he wanted to. He does have a aunt (me) an uncle Frank, (2) cousins Mendy and Lori and (3)great cousins who are now 8, 10 and 11 and lots of extended family that would love to meet him.

[sisilyg55]

you think his neices and nephews feel bad..what about his son?!!!!!! do ANY of you know who i am? did any of you know that his ex was pregnent?!
Hello again;
We never knew about you until about 3 years ago and did not know how to get a hold of you. I was told I could not look for you until you was 18 without the consent of your mother. Since I never knew your mother, I did not know how to get in contact with her. I do not even think your mother knew about me. It is a sad case all around. That neice you was responding too is you cousin and she did not know about you. It is just another secret in my brothers life that I had no idea about. We would definately like to get to know you and welcome you into our family. You deserve that much.

[conservativejoe]

Just in case Randall posted somewhere on this forum, or read this later, you are a dork and I hope you get stalked in prison yourself wussy.

[Corky Kneivel]

This post…this post is the gift that keeps on giving.

I was initially speckticle of believing it could get better than the firsthand accounts of the time Randall Joe Utterback he slip and hurt he’s ankle in the shower. I mean how can you top that? But thank almighty G-d, we learned about Randall’s affinity for Filet-O-Fish sammiches. Last but not least, a poster named “notruth” lives up to their name repeatedly. There's so much more contained in here...and I hope with all my heart it keeps going.


I think, more than anything, we’ve all learned a little something about the suave and genteel culture of the bustling burg of Centralia, Missouri

[Corky Kneivel]

How do you know this "for a fact"? Did you witness it? Did she herself tell you about it?

I remember lots of stories about the crap she pulled BEFORE her & Randall. She was a wild child that always got what she wanted, no matter what she had to do to get it.

She was a high school girl that broke up several relationships just to toss the guy away after.

So. And. What.

How do any of these allegations absolve Mr. Utterbach of shooting at her car, running her off the road, threatening her life as well as her family’s, and then escaping from prison? And how can you cast aspersions on her character…when he started dating a 17 year old after meeting her as a 31 year old at a high school prom after party?

As was previously said, even if the girl sexed up the entire population of Centralia, he’s the one responsible for his actions. Blaming others for their problems and declaring that they only lashed out because they were driven to it is what children do. Saying that she’s just as much at fault because she wrote letters to him and played mind games is like saying women ask to get raped by wearing revealing clothes.

[WishfulDreamer]

What bothers me is that some have said UM "overdramatized" things. What, you think they just added in the part with gun? :rolleyes: UM didn't get everything right 100% of the time but they also didn't randomly throw in acts to make those wanted look worse than they were.

I agree with Corky. It's just sickening that people think that he shouldn't be accountable for what he did. Regardless of what his girlfriend did, it was wrong.

I have said that before, though not necessarily about this specific case. But I do stand by it. "Overdramatizing" and adding false angles to a story to make people look bad are two completely different things. You are correct about UM not getting everything right 100% of the time.

One case I feel that was overdramatized was the Dana Point Jane Doe. People have pointed the finger at the cab driver, saying that it was his fault that she killed herself because he didn't take pity on her and drive her further. That is totally ridiculous. How do we even know that this really happened? Does anyone know for sure that the girl didn't have enough money to go as far as she wanted, and the cabbie had to drop her off at the cliff? What if she specifically asked to go there? I feel that such details are trivial and are probably added to the case by the UM writers to fill in gaps in a story, as I doubt they would even know about the specific conversation that actually took place between the Jane Doe and the cabbie. It is a recreation. The segment scripts are not always verbatim, because small details like that are impossible to know. It's common sense. It irks me that people grab such a trivial piece of "acting" and use it to point the finger at someone who had nothing to do with the girl jumping off a cliff.

If you are going to hold someone accountable, hold the right person accountable for the right reasons.

Anyway, I will get off my soapbox and get back on topic.

[WishfulDreamer]

^^ I definitely agree with you about that, I just don't think it really applied to this particular case.

As for that overdramatization, I always wondered if the cab driver himself had claimed this was what happened? That he had dropped her off there because she was short on money? It's hard to say, really.

[mphs95]

The reason people have so many comments and ideas about Randall is because they have seen a on his story on a nationally televised episode of Unsolved Mysteries that was repeated numerous times in syndication and that is all they know. Right or wrong, that is all we have to go on.

That being said, I really doubt you'll find much support for your brother on these forums.

Sisilyg5, I totally understand where you are coming from. My dad snapped and committed a crime and ended up in a fatal police shootout. A small town that knew my family. Most knew us enough, but for people who only got their information from the news and/or newspaper, the side was differed and some of those opinion hurt and still do.

That being said, you have to understand our point here. We do not know your brother. All we have is the UM segment and/or research some of our poster do from time to time. I'm sure Randall was a great brother and relative and I can tell you miss him. You're a good sister to defend him since he is not here to do it himself. However, he is not defending himself because he ran away from his actions and did not face them as an adult should. Also, when you come onto a site like this, yes there is going to be an opinion or two and that includes saying things that hurt. In this case, there is a criminal record to back up our opinion. Sorry.

Denise may be a complete sleaze and man eater off camera, but that doesn't matter. Your brother was abusive during their relationship. When Denise said it was over, THAT'S HER RIGHT. At that point, he needed to stop and change direction because as heartbroken as he was, that part of his life was over. Randall crossed a line not once or twice, but multiple times.

You're a good sister to stick up for your brother, but don't chastise us because we do not feel the same way. If it upsets you so much, maybe you shouldn't be reading these posts.

[TheCars1986]

So Utterback is still on the run? Anyone think it's possible that he's dead? I just don't see how he'd be able to be on the run for this long without any sightings of him. What was his jail sentence, I can't remember?

[cordwainer1453]

I think this was the story that had one of my favorite Stack lines. The girl said something along the lines of "If I didn't take him back, he said I should just stab him right through the heart" then Stack came on and said "OF COURSE she refused." I might be misremembering

Yep, that's also been a personal favorite Stackism of mine as well.

[Kane]

What was his jail sentence, I can't remember?

He was never given a jail sentence, because he fled before he could go to trial. A few months after being arrested and charged, he escaped from custody while en route to a hospital.

I'm not sure about the legality of it all, but could he still be prosecuted for the crimes? What about the statue of limitations?

[WishfulDreamer]

Just rewatched this case.

I just have to say that even if these allegations against Denise are true, they do not excuse Mr. Utterback's actions. Period. I would also like to know what the statute of limitations is for these charges and if there's much else that's come to light recently.

[ontarioboi]

if the allegations against denise are true, it says a lot about her morals and character....women cant have it both ways, there are consequences of sleeping around with many partners....it's like when a guy cheats, a woman does something for revenge and it's like he deserved it. We have heard this story countless times.....

I seriously hope you don't mean that Randall's attack was warranted if the allegations are true. Promiscuity and cheating still don't make shooting, stalking, and kidnapping permissible. And it wouldn't be permissible if the male had been doing such things and the woman had gotten her "revenge" this way, either.

Thanks for commenting about this. I must admit yes some of the comments were and are hurtful and through all these years I have gone through roller coaster of emotions. Everyone has a right to their opinions and thank you for yours. Right or wrong, my brother needs to take responsibility for his actions and until he takes responsibility I can only hope he is still alive.

From what I have been told, there is no statue of limitations because he was never convicted for the crime. In fact, I am sure he will get added charges when or if he is ever found. I have not heard of any updated information but if I do, I will definately post. thanks for your post. Randall's sister, Susan

I can only imagine how much pain you've gone through having this hang over your head and of course concern for his welfare regardless of anything he did. That's a lot of stress to deal with and must be very upsetting. I hope that what I said did not cause you any offense or anything like that.

[DALLASTEXAN!!]

I grew up around Randal. He looks rough in the mugshots but was always real into nice stuff. he always had the best stereo equipment and road racing bicycles. He usually had at least 2 crotch rocket motorcycles that were extremely souped up. He liked to go really fast. He was actually pretty flashy and had quite a bit of cash because he is the type of guy that would work three jobs. As far as the ex-girlfriend, she liked to start crap and get revenge on people. I have no doubt that he wanted her back but I don't think he went nuts on her. Knowing her and him I'm pretty sure she said that to get him in trouble with the police. As far as being in Missouri I would bet anything that he is not. He is known to be a pretty crafty and I would bet he is in another state working in a factory saving all of his cash for quick moves so that whenever they show him on T.V. he can jump up and move on a moments notice. As for England, I could see that. I'm telling you Randall could be anyone he wanted to be. He can dress the part and have the accent. He did pretty good interpretations.
no you are not randall LOL. you seem like maybe you are just his secretary.

[DALLASTEXAN!!]

Wow, one of the best threads I've ever read on here. So here is my opinion. I understand randall's family and friends that love him. no he did not committ a terrible crime like some of the others we have seen on UM that make us lose sleep at night. So I'm not going to say he's a terrible person without knowing him personally.

BUT

He still did something wrong or he wouldn't have been arrested multiple times and then run away from everything. By now he could have had this completely behind him and done something positive with his life. He did this to himself and hurt his family with his actions.

If the victim lied about him or if UM was overdramatic I really don't care. Afterall she was only 18 years old and he was treating her like she was his daughter? Most 18 year olds aren't ready for that and at some point want to be young and into other people their age as well. That's why you see so many people get married young only to get divorced after a few years of marriage. I'm sure randall wouldn't have wanted a 30 year old woman telling him what to do when he was an 18 year old kid. He probably would have tapped. This is all just speculation on my part.

Maybe it wasn't right at the end of the day what she did or how UM only showed one side, but he is the one that ran and we only have the UM segment to go by because he never stepped up to face the charges and give his side of the story. spells GUILTY in my book. At least this case didn't end like the jim burnside case.

[DALLASTEXAN!!]

im sure that i probably know more about this case than most of you because im was friends with both randall and his accuser. anyone who knows the both of them knows the truth of who is the criminal in this case
Did you ever see that episode of COPS where the criminal was drunk and slamming his own head on the cop car and then turned to the cops and accused the police officer for police brutality? The officer told the guy you are on camera silly.

I'm just asking because I just wonder if you know who the real criminal was in that case too?
