Cold & Callous: The Case Of Yolanda Dillion

In 2022, 54 year old Yolanda Dillion was busier than ever. She worked in the New Orleans police department, cared for her mother, was studying for a PHD and never missed a Sunday church service. With school and medical bills mounting up, she picked up some extra work with Uber.
But when she picked up a passenger one afternoon in December, no-one had any idea the events that would unfold...

"I didn't pick her- Uber picked her" is absolutely chilling...

[marinaxlove]

For them to both battle cancer, and for her mum to lose her only child to murder and having to bury her a week before Christmas is just absolutely heartbreaking. Just awful and unfair. Yolanda so didn’t deserve this

[extofer]

her mom’s cries really got to me. It sounded like Yolanda did so much for her. I hope that community keeps her memory alive and takes care of her mom.

Hearing the mother speak absolutely broke my heart. May Yolanda RIP. Thanks for covering this story. Uber should have offered the family some monetary compensation towards the mother’s health care costs.

I'd like to know how an alleged killer who admits to waking up wanting to kill someone could possibly be charged with 2nd degree murder? Unbelievable.

What i absolutely adore about this channel is the in-depth focus on the victim, it's done with such taste, no exaggeration just the human behind the tragedy. Yolanda was such a gentle kind soul to have endured a violent act like this is just sickening. Her poor mom, I only hope the extended family, church & community rally round her.

You can't keep blaming everything on mental health...people have to take responsibility for their actions..

She lost her husband and now her daughter. And she lost her daughter in the worst way. My heart break for her.

I’m still amazed at how people can be so evil. I’m convinced some people are born without a soul, just walking around and breathing, void of any humanity. May she rest in peace❤

[NikkiRhodeen]

RIP Yolanda. I hope her mother gets all the support she needs.

This channel’s content is some of the absolute best on YouTube. Thank you for highlighting the positive qualities of the victim to show the depth of the loss.

Absolutely senseless, I'm so sorry to Yolandas family. She was a wonderful woman who didn't deserve any of this.

[PerpetuallyIntroverted]

So sad, so unfair. She was a good woman taking care of her mother and keeping to her faith. Her poor mother. I pray the community step in and look after her for as long as she is alive as a mark of respect for Yolanda. I’m so sorry for how cruel life is for a lot of good people. They deserve so much better. 💔

So sad, how random it’s horrible. You don’t need anything more that than smile to see how a great person she was. 😢

[JuneJuly]

Sickening. Senseless. Let the killer rot in jail.

[InfiniteYasin]

When Yolanda’s mother said that’s her only child. My heart shattered💔 RIP Yolanda

[AthyDuGard]

This case is so damn tragic. I felt physically ill hearing the details. Rest in Power, Yolanda. Your legacy of kindness lives on. Thank you, Truly Criminal. No one covers cases with such empathy like you do. 🖤

[Victorialivity]

Thank you for covering this. Yolanda was lovely and I’m so sorry this happened to her.

[lisabradford]
