We will find you again. We are always welcome at Crime Watch. Every day. I'm Chris Hansen. First today, a story that made big headlines in Philadelphia. The

wife

of an Ivy League

professor

is

brutal

ly murdered. wrapping Christmas presents in her house and the Killer walks the streets as a free man right now as you watch this in a horror movie there is always a monster a wife and mother is brutally slaughtered in a horrible and tragic way she was alive when he hit her. he has the brains but who is behind this Savage attack imagine the horror of seeing someone approach his suit with a mask, gloves and a crowbar it is a murder mystery like no other they are still amateur killers and we are professional killer hunters with an ending no one saw it coming, which made us think that maybe this was something staged.

Someone else was out there, he was going to come get her. It is the day before Christmas vacation for most people in the affluent area of ​​Upper Marion Township, Pennsylvania, when Rafael Robb, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, returns from his morning errands and discovers his wife Ellen in a puddle. of blood. He calls the police. There is no audio of the call, but it is in a transcript released by the Marion Police Department. Raphael says hello, yes. I just came home and found my wife murdered on the kitchen floor and her officer responded that she had been killed.

Yeah, how can you tell? I know she has a broken head. There is someone in the house? There's a broken window in the back. Okay, stay outside, there are police and an ambulance coming in. Within minutes the police arrive and cordon off the interior area, it appears that the housewife and mother, Ellen Robb, was wrapping last minute Christmas gifts in the kitchen; She had been sitting at a kitchen table, strangely, facing the wall. Ellen never sees it coming, a shotgun blast to her face. Experienced detectives would initially see a wound or series of wounds like that and think about the next shotgun blast.

CSI intervenes and documents the bloodbath. Every angle of Grizzly captured the photos we saw in this case pale in comparison to anything we've ever seen. I have seen horrendous accidents. People hit by trains. People eaten alive by animals. And these photos were the worst we have ever seen. There was a lot of blood around the place where his body was found, mainly in the head area. The police talk to Ellen's husband, Raphael. He asked her where she was during the morning hours, his wife was brutally murdered. Raphael explains that he took his 12-year-old daughter Olivia to school, stopped at a local grocery store, and then dropped off her grades at the University of Pennsylvania before returning home to find his wife, he was at the time. in which Ellen was probably murdered.

Investigators obtain surveillance footage from the various stops of him. Rafael's alibi seems to check out. Detectives continued to search the home for clues. That's when they see shards of glass next to a back door. Someone had broken glass. and it was one of those doors where, with a broken pane of glass, a thief could reach in and open a door immediately. Investigators theorize that it must have been a robbery that occurred there and that the motive for the murder will lead the victim to identify the perpetrator. It appears to be an open and shut case as police continue to gather evidence and piece together what happened.

Ellen's brother Gary arrives, there to pick up his sister for the holidays. As he drove to the house, I saw the quarantined house with the police tape up. I got out of my car and quickly learned that she had been killed. It's devastating news for Garrett. Ellen is more than his sister, she is like a second mother to him when he was in college, she worked three jobs and sent her earnings to my mother so she could support my brother and I while she raised us as a single mother and now , unfortunately, is gone. I saw them put her lifeless body in the ambulance.

The moment could not be more tragic. She was, uh, she was coming to Boston to celebrate. hers 50th birthday to celebrate Christmas with her daughter and our

family

, then, in front of a swarm of blacks and whites, a yellow school bus pulls up. It's Olivia, Raphael and Ellen's 12-year-old daughter. She comes home and sees her house surrounded by police tape. lights everywhere police officers ambulance she leaves walks home and a 12 year old girl says "I live here" Gary kneels in a neighbor's house as he tries to understand the tragedy unfolding in front of his eyes immediately thoughts pass through his mind mind while How could this happen?

You are in a beautiful, peaceful suburban neighborhood on the outskirts of Philadelphia. Murders and murders of this nature simply do not occur in that section of the Philadelphia suburbs. Authorities continue to investigate the case as a robbery gone horribly wrong and now. They can't help but wonder if there's a murder on the loose watching Rob. Housewives are alone in their homes. The only problem is that Ellen wasn't alone. There was a little dog there and animals invariably walk on blood and trample the Blood Prince. about the place, but the dog was locked in a bedroom, which means that no thief would do that and there is something else that is problematic for the detectives: the broken window glass in the door where the thief supposedly entered, none of crushed glass beneath where the killer would have walked and it's not just conflicting evidence on the floor, it's in the ceiling pipe, the way the blood was found discarded in various patterns, especially on the ceiling, detectives believe the blood splatter patterns don't match a shotgun blast to the face.

The blood spatter was particularly critical and it isn't long before their suspicions are confirmed when Ellen's x-rays come back and the x-ray results showed that it was not a gunshot wound, but a trauma injury. overwhelming. It immediately changes the focus of the type of person you are looking for. We're talking about a bad guy with a black heart when Rob was innocently wrapping Christmas presents when someone broke into her house outside of Philadelphia and beat her to death. Initial reports indicate it could have been a robbery gone wrong, however some of the evidence at the crime scene is starting to tell a different story.

Ellen Robb, a 49-year-old wife and mother, is beaten to death inside her luxurious Pennsylvania home. Ellen Robb's face was erased. How could this happen now that police have ruled out a robbery gone wrong? They begin to believe that the murder is an inside job. I can't tell you how many murders I've committed in my career where the person was the last to see someone alive and the first. The person who saw him dead is the Killer and in this case that person is Ellen's husband, Raphael Robb. By coincidence, it quickly becomes clear that he had a motive when the police interview Ellen's brother and discover that Ellen didn't die on any given day. the day Ellen was brutally shot down and murdered, the most horrific blow in the history of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, and more than half a century ago was the day she was to have her own emancipation, that's right, Ellen was leaving Rafael and Gary were on their way to take his sister and daughter Olivia to Boston, he clearly understood that she was leaving and it was at that moment of his freedom that he hit and killed her.

According to Ellen's brother, she planned to divorce Rafael after years of verbal, mental and most recently began physical abuse, but if Rafael has the motive to kill Ellen, what about his seemingly solid alibi that ends up just like the murder of his wife? The alibi is excessive, he would be in places where he knows there would be surveillance videos, detectives say in At this local Wawa store, he stood in front of a surveillance camera for several minutes and apparently for no reason while drinking an entire soda, so So amateurish as to be ridiculous, he was creating a series of places he had gone that would be plausibly related. but there's just one problem: it wasn't in accordance with what we thought the timeline now made it possible for Raphael to be home during the time when his wife is mercilessly slaughtered and, according to investigators, the evidence found in the house points to Rafael as the real murderer.

First, the dog, he intentionally locked it up before going in for the kill and no thief would do that. Second, the door through which the supposed thief entered actually looked to me as if it had been broken from the inside out, and third, the coroner. find out that Ellen dies from blunt force trauma when a killer uses a blunt object to commit a murder and hits him repeatedly once blood starts flowing from the victim, gets on the gun and every time the killer raises and lowers it that blood splatters somewhere, according to authorities, a beating like this is up close and very personal, someone who has a reason for wanting this person dead, while investigators focus on Rafael, they are missing a crucial piece of the puzzle, the murder weapon that we had actually been told about. by the pathologist to search for long cylindrical objects, the murder weapon is never recovered, yet prosecutors continue with their case.

I arrested him and charged him with first degree murder, but there's only one problem and he's about to turn this case around, the lead district attorney. Bruce Castor doesn't believe Raphael is a cold-blooded killer. I didn't think that was what the evidence fit. I had a written report from two psychiatrists who told me that it was a murder out of rage, a murder out of rage where the killer hits more. with more Strength, much more than necessary to cause death, which tells us the type of mentality of the person we are looking for, that is, Raphael killed his wife, but in a sudden loss of control versus an action premeditated D.A Caster claims it is a crime. of passion provoked by a triggering event in this case he believes it is a conversation about Ellen's plans to leave Rafael he is in complete panic grabs the closest thing that is capable of producing death and then goes to town headlong , but unless he and Missy have done it then I have no choice but to present the evidence I have for the next 11 months.

Raphael is in jail on first-murder charges and faces life in prison and possibly the death penalty. He swears that he is innocent. Now I have a problem. because I can't really go and try to convince a jury that it's a first degree case when in reality I think it's a voluntary manslaughter case, but right before Raphael's case goes to trial, this bombshell faces to the brutal murder of his incredible wife Raphael admits to prosecutors that he had hit his wife in the face with a nearby chin bar, they organized the raid and disposed of the gun and bloody clothes in a dumpster in Chinatown, in their In other words, he just went crazy when he found out.

Ellen planned to take her daughter to Massachusetts. The events that unfolded fit the forensics, but Raphael's confession is a game-changer for the state's case against him; In my opinion, it is no longer a case of provable first degree murder because remember that it is proven Beyond. A reasonable doubt and prosecutors believe that a crime of passion or a murder out of anger creates enough doubt to derail a first-degree murder conviction that requires proof of premeditation. The district attorney stated that there was a lot of circumstantial evidence, no murder weapon was found, and that he felt it would give the

family

peace to accept a plea deal as part of a negotiated agreement.

Rafael pleads guilty to a charge of voluntary manslaughter that carries a maximum sentence of 20 years, but in a shocking court decision the judge sentences Rafael Robb to a maximum sentence of 20 years. minor sentence of only 10 years and understand this Raphael has a chance ofparole after only five years, how could this happen? Ellen's family is horrified by the verdict. We didn't understand the legal system when it came to manslaughter versus murder. could be as low as two to five years for involuntary manslaughter. I argued that the facts and circumstances justified the maximum sentence of 20 years. The judge disagreed and imposed the 10-year sentence.

I didn't expect it to do that, but it did. happened and now Ellen's family has to live with the verdict and live without their loved one our family without Ellen is um not complete we are not complete and we never will be then five years passed and Judge Ellen's family feared that he would be put on parole, did you hear? true, Raphael Rob is a free man after just five years behind the till, it's remarkable to think that after

serving

only five of a five to ten year sentence, he was actually paroled by the parole board of Pennsylvania.

He is very, very worrying, but Ellen's brother is determined to make Raphael comply. For the entire 10 years we decided to fight this because it was an outrage not only to our family but to all victims of domestic violence and abuse and in a historic and unprecedented move, the parole board makes an announcement and my message to the Mr. Robb is the captain speaking and your flight to Freedom has been canceled for the first time in Pennsylvania history. Probation was terminated for a violent felon and rightly so, that's right, suddenly Railrob is right. He returns to prison to finish his full sentence, but Ellen's family is just getting started.

A new team of lawyers is on the case. This was a premeditated murder and they say they have new evidence that changes everything. Police found additional demand for Tyvek. a hazmat suit in his BMW 10 years the shocking amount of time Ivy League economics professor Rafael Robb spent in prison after admitting to beating his wife to death while she was wrapping Christmas presents after admitting to killing Rafael Rob is charged with voluntary manslaughter and sentenced to 10 years for the brutal murder of his wife Ellen after she was 10 years old. Rob was released from prison just this past January.

Ellen's family says he can't just return to society without restrictions as long as this is my sister's memory fades. Ellen is

serving

a life sentence in the grave we all share and he is free, it is very, very worrying, Outraged by La Luz's sentencing, Ellen's family wants justice and is moving forward with their wrongful death lawsuit, which failed during Rafael's attempt at five-year probation as they remember today's plea deal and the fact that That Rob only served a sentence of five to ten years weighs heavily on the family. Ellen's family hires attorneys Andrew Duffy and Robert Mongoluzzi to represent her civil case.

The family spoke to us and asked us to prove what they believe can be proven and that it was a premeditated murder and after reviewing the evidence they believe they have a strong case for anyone who has done this to any human being let alone to his wonderful wife and mother of his only son. They should spend every second of their lives in jail for the rest of their lives Plaintiff's lawyers write evidence they presented to civil jury Start at the beginning Raphael's phone call to police Raphael Robb didn't call 9-1 1 that's true, you called the police hotline and why is it so important?

He wanted to establish his alibi. He didn't want to be recorded. He would have known that 9-1-1 would record his call. Another thing they say points to premeditation. lack of blood evidence found on Raphael, attorneys Duffy and Mongoluzzi discuss how the hell that would be possible in the midst of such a bloodbath. He claimed that somehow after the murder in this slaughterhouse he took off his shirt, pants, socks and shoes somehow jumped across the blood splattered floor to the hallway went up the stairs found baby wipes cleaned himself put on clothes without a drop of blood was incredibly implausible and an absolute lie they have their own theory to explain the lack of blood on Raphael and it is new and explosive evidence that he had a Tyvek suit, the police found an additional Tyvek suit, a suit of materials dangerous in his BMW, making, according to the plaintiff's lawyers, two Hazmat-style suits, one used in the murder and the other, a backup suit that he forgot to discard. the other evidence if Rafael Rob was a chemist if he worked in an industrial plant he would have a potential justification for having a Tyvek suit in his BMW Rafael Robb was a professor of Economics at the University of Pennsylvania there was no Rhyme or Reason why he would have a Tyvek suit in the back of his BMW.

Lawyers Duffy and Mongolusi claim it is the most reasonable explanation for why there was no blood on Raphael. We proved that the blood trail stopped abruptly in the garage and that just means that a Tyvek suit was taken by surprise, so the only thing left after the theme suit was taken away was a bloodless murder and then there's the matter of the murder weapon that was never recovered. Raphael Robb claims that he began arguing with Alan and grabbed his chin. bar and that he beat her to death with it those wounds that were found on Ellen Gregory Rob were cutting and lacerating wounds that are consistent with a sharp object such as a crowbar and not a round pull-up bar enter into evidence images of Rob's garage and the tools We had a photo of all the tools lined up and it turned out that a lever was missing.

The physical facts indicated that this was not a pull-up bar, but was absolutely an instrument with jagged edges, like a lever, which the plaintiff's attorneys argue means. he had to go get the gun, not only was it nearby and he grabbed it in a fit of rage, this shows forethought and planning on Raphael's part. Furthermore, they claim that a lever-type weapon best explains the horrific damage done to Ellen's head. I will never be. able to get those photos out of my mind Ellen was unidentifiable, she had literally punched her in the face to eliminate her identity.

Civil trial lawyers then point out the obvious. Raphael Rob's work at the University of Pennsylvania. He is an economics professor who specializes in understanding this game. theory is the science of logical decision making that involves strategic thinking and planning people who are proficient in game theory plan things have backup plans in simple terms this was a premeditated murder he had everything planned but he didn't plan his story They are falling apart so quickly that Raphael wrote to his daughter Olivia two years after the murder. This is the letter that, in retrospect, was the most important evidence in the civil trial.

Raphael is asking for photos of his daughter and the two of them together. He hopes to prove that he is a good father to receive a lighter punishment during the sentencing phase in exchange for promising to send him Christmas gifts and money. He continues. I would hate to delay shipping the gift, but I won't. Do it unless you get these items, won't the love of money spur you into action? He loves and kisses daddy EXO He says he's a murderer and a liar Mr. Rob, isn't he? Raphael responds murderer yes liar to yes also this impressive exchange in the courtroom in which it appears that Raphael is blaming his wife for her own murder of him.

It goes like this Raphael says that my wife pushed me mongoluzzi so you are stating before this jury that Ellen provoked you to murder her it is true Raphael responds she pushed me I got angry I lost my faculties that is what happened then the most important moment arrives and the plaintiff's lawyers call their star Witness the doors open she walks to the stand and the jury no longer sees a 12 year old girl now they see a 20 year old girl it's Olivia this is the first time she sees her father Raphael Since that fateful day eight years earlier it was the most emotional dramatic event that can have been witnessed in any courtroom anywhere Olivia's testimony is documented in court transcripts a portion of her testimony reads this way Attorney Duffy says Olivia before your father took your mother away from you were you afraid that your father Olivia answers yes, Attorney Duffy why Olivia my father could lose his temper very quickly and quickly Olivia testified that and ended her testimony with what disappoints her the most when she meets people new is that these new people cannot meet their mother, the civil trial ends and the lawyers.

For the rest of Ellen's estate, we prove that Raphael Rob intentionally and premeditatedly murdered his wife, this was not a crime of passion, and the jury agrees to award the largest civil lawsuit settlement in Pennsylvania history, $124 million. of dollars. Rafael Rob is out of prison, yes, he lives as a free man. He came out from behind bars in January 2017 after serving his full 10-year sentence for manslaughter and although Rob was never able to be tried a second time for murder, Helen's family decided to turn their tragedy into Triumph, they create the foundation with All great reasons to acronym Ellen's initials, we have worked passionately for nearly a decade to achieve many goals on behalf of victims of domestic violence and abuse, most notably the creation of Ellen's Law, which allows victims to meet with the parole board prior to the release of any prisoner, helping others is providing some comfort to Ellen's family, but they are still learning to live with a loss.

When she walked in, she lit up a room and did so in a way that focused not on herself, but on everyone around her. just an incredible individual tragically taken by the hands of a monster, killed his wife like something out of a horror movie and in a horror movie there was always a monster and the monster here was Raphael Rob in that civil case that is currently going on painting against Raphael Rob in Philadelphia I'm joined by Andrew Duffy, who represents Ellen Robb's family. Drew. I know the judge recently scolded Rafael Rob in court. What is the latest news on the civil ruling?

Well, it bothered the judge. The judge told him. Dr. Rob. His words have meaning, please. I understand the last thing is that right now we are on a quest to find literally every asset that Dr. Rob has in the world because the judge has given us this ability to do what is called Financial Discovery. In Financial Discovery we can know the total. value of all your assets and what do you think the total value of those assets is right now? They are approximately between three and four million dollars. Rob recently said in court that he wanted to move to Pittsburgh, but if he didn't have enough money to do so, he would return to the family home where he killed his wife, is there any justice for that?

There is no justice for that, is it legally possible? Yes, unfortunately, there is something in Pennsylvania called The Slayer statue. The Slayer statute grants kills, believe it or not. what's called a life estate on the house they used to own jointly with the person they murdered, so do you own it? No, he can return to it and live in it until he dies. Yes, you can do it legally. You probably don't know what Wayne Pennsylvania is? a wonderful and united community. I highly doubt I want to go back there. He recently asked the court for an advance of one hundred thousand dollars from the estate.

His requests were ridiculous, they were insulting, and they told him everything he needed to know about delusional mentality. At this time, he first asked for a nice car, asked for money for supplemental insurance, and then had the audacity to ask the judge for fifty thousand dollars to get his teeth fixed. Fifty thousand dollars for his daughter Olivia, who was the main beneficiary of her mother's estate, she still hasn't received a cent and this monster wants fifty thousand dollars to get her teeth fixed, that's not going to happen and that was also a big tactical error because what happened during that request for a hundred thousand dollars is that he took So that allowed me to question him and that's when he disclosed that he had another bank account abroad and that was vitally important because that bank account had not been previously revealed in sworn statements and that is exactly what has them in trouble now in the At the end of the day, how much of this estate will he be able to get for his client Olivia?

We are asking for everything, we are asking for the millions of dollars that Drew Duffy has, thank you for being with us here today. I appreciate that and, of course, we will keep you informed about this civil trial as news emerges. Here's a look at what's happening later on today's show. I can't find my daughter. She began with a desperate call for help. to find a missing girl, but the investigation quickly takes a tragic turn with a twist thatno one saw it coming. She's in Ohio, where a family reports their five-year-old daughter missing from a restaurant they own and tells police they disparaged her. a nap in the back office and suddenly he was gone, here's Anna Garcia, it looks like any other Chinese restaurant you'd see in any city in the US, but Aang's Asian Kitchen in Jackson Township, Ohio was the piece American by Liang Zhao and Ming Ming Chen.

Five-year-old Ashley was the youngest, she looked simply adorable. I mean, she was very cute and you would see her there playing with toys and coloring. It seemed like Liang and Mingming's American dream was coming true until the moment it turned into a nightmare. please I can't find my daughter that's Liang telling the 9-1-1 dispatcher Ashley disappeared from the restaurant when was the last time you saw her uh it was this afternoon probably one more time uh three maybe four channels in five hours or so yeah, I mean she was there sleeping, I mean, you know?

Did Ashley go out into the blizzard and get lost in the snowy woods? Did she hide somewhere inside the restaurant or, worse yet, did someone kidnap her? We worked very hard on this case and the only thing we wanted at the end of the day was to get that girl back alive. Mountain police even checked the family's nearby apartment where Ashley was. It wasn't long before the question was answered. Ashley was dead. She was inside the restaurant for five years. -They took the old woman from us like that, it's not fear and now the police say that her own mother killed the girl and her father helped cover it up.

We searched the entire restaurant for a missing girl. We were thinking she had possibly gone somewhere the parents just didn't know where to find her in the restaurant looking for a place where a child could hide right not where someone would hide a child absolutely a couple Mingming charged with murder and felonious assault Liang charged with complicity of murder and complicity in committing felonious assault this has really hit the community very hard the police believe that Mingming hit Ashley in the head with his fists killing her the police are not discussing a possible motive this investigation is not over we will continue to analyze how was this child raised if there was prior abuse to this child and if there was prior abuse what type of abuse was done to this child?

Liang and Ming Ming are locked up in the county jail. Bail has been set for them at five million dollars each. Ming Ming has not yet pleaded guilty, but her husband has pleaded not guilty and maintains her innocence. Ashley a six year old sister is in the care of foster parents a girl who lost her sister forever and most likely her parents who could face long prison terms if they are found guilty foreigners with blue blood running through their veins we try to be the better

cops

we can police crime Daily with cheat codes generations of criminals Fighters protecting and serving the streets of Detroit we are pretty well known throughout the department as a family of

cops

the joke is you can't go too far without tripping Coming to Seco, We travel all over the country investigating all kinds of different stories and often teaming up with the brave men and women in law enforcement who help keep us safe.

Today we have a unique group of officers from my home state. Michigan, who are turning the badge into a family business, here are Pat lalama's men, dressed in dedicated blue protectors on the tough streets of the Motor City. We try to be the best police officer. We can be them sporting a prominent letter D on their forearms appropriately. I would like to say that we are the decicos, the deceica, generations of staunch criminals, fighters, the same blood runs through each of those veins. I became a police officer because my father-in-law worked in law enforcement. my brother in law.

He was also retired Sergeant Larry DeCicco, aka Father, 35 years as a police officer and the inspiration for not one, not two, but three, every young man driven to follow in his footsteps once or twice, maybe more, all at some point. We were police officers for Halloween when we were kids, yeah, there was no doubt about it. I knew it from the beginning. I didn't encourage any of them to join the police department, but once they showed interest, I did everything I could to make sure they got started. in the right direction is the oldest the FBI returned with the findings and has the highest rank as lieutenant bill is 39 years old a tactical warrior who has spent years with the Special Response Team the equivalent of SWAT is now a sergeant suspected is blackmail and he wears all black with a black mask, oh and he also has 20 years as a marine under his belt and then there's the youngest Max 27, a patrol officer, the reason I stopped you is because when you turned around Right on West Jefferson, you ran that stop sign, there's never any doubt that I would do anything I could to become a Detroit police officer.

Well, the men take their jobs seriously, but off the streets it's typical brotherly scandal. Bell and Mike still like to make fun of their not-so-little brother, he still uses his college code, it's been 10 years, that's fine and when they share stories of fighting the good fight in the streets, big brother Lt. Mike Revels, imposing on his two younger brothers, once he finishes telling Billy what happened, they later come and tell me what happened and I can tell them both what they did wrong, more or less like the matriarch of a law enforcement family. Debbie Decico is as proud and prepared for the harsh and dangerous realities of police work as her father, her brother, her husband, and three of her children could be.

The badge is now practically under control, although her mother is also constantly worried. At least she has her husband Larry at home now that she has hung up her gun after 35 years chasing bad guys. The older I got, the less I missed him. except because I couldn't catch these kids jumping fences in high school and I'm just watching their shirts move Tails all I can do is Jack on the radio which way he's going and uh and the younger guys are on them like a dog and a rabbit the younger guys like his sons may have the speed but Larry has the wisdom of a lifetime in strength it's a group thing it's not a one person thing no one can just jump up and say big butt on my chest You know, it's not that, it's a feeling of pride for me and my brothers to know that he was so well thought out and it's a big shoe to fill, but we're trying to have a deep tradition in the Detroit Police Department .

As One decica retires or is promoted, the batch numbers are passed to the next in line when I was promoted to lieutenant. I earned my grandfather's L4 lieutenant badge, but was able to pass my father's badge on to my brother Bill when Max graduated. academy, his father put the badge on Max's uniform. He was beyond excited, not only to finally be a police officer, but also to carry on the you-know-the-name legacy of it all. The decico family grows every year that Bell and Mike have children and there are nieces, nephews, grandchildren, the bigger the family gets the closer they become and it's safe to say that another decica will listen to Call of Duty, one that can't be ignore, we're pretty well known in the department as a police family, the joke is that you can't go very far without running into Seco.
