LOS ANGELES — Viral Crimes released April Jace’s murder documentary and it contains chilling details. April, if you recall, was killed by her estranged husband“Shield” actor Michael Jace — in front of their children on May 19, 2014 after she sought divorcement. April was only 40. The quondam lovebirds had been married 11 years. But, because he couldn’t land an acting gig, Michael was unemployed the last 6 years of their marriage. Dayuuummm! Why didn’t she leave him earlier? Even Pookie & Ray Ray get less time than that. Nevertheless, the penurious couple filed bankruptcy in 2011 after accumulating $500,000 in debt. That’s when Michael started self-medicating with liquor while accusing April of infidelity. On the day of her quietus, April received 164 text messages from Michael imploring her to stay while she was at their kids’ baseball game. The jilted lover also threw the bible in April’s countenance, claiming they’re both devout Christians. “I am just amazed at how comfortable a woman of God just walks out of a marriage,” Michael wrote. “Stop throwing the bible at me,” April replied.

Moments later, when April returned home, Michael confronted her in the living room and they had contretemps. Then he pulled out a gun and shot April three times — once in the back and twice in the legs. The beautiful mother of three died instantly. Michael dialed 911 and told the operator he deep-sixed his wife. Then he called April’s father and asked him to come pick up the kids.

April — a financial aid advisor at Biola University — was a phenomenal sprinter. She was crowned the 2011 Track & Field World Champion in 100 Meters Relay for women over 35. That’s significant because Michael, 60, taunted her as he pulled the trigger, saying, “You like to run so much, why don’t you try running to heaven.” Damn, that’s foul — you jaundiced, broke bastard.

Should’ve gotten off your slothful ass and found a job.

After all, it’s not uncommon for laid-off actors to moonlight.

“Martin” star Carl Anthony Payne sells used cars to make ends meet.

Ditto for “Cosby Show” thespian Geoffrey Owens who bagged groceries at Trader Joe’s.

There’s no excuse.

Michael was arrested, charged and convicted of murder.

On June 10, 2016 he received 40 years in prison.

In addition to “The Shield,” Michael’s other credits include “Southland,” 2001’s “Planet of the Apes” and “Forrest Gump.”

  1. he shoot both her legs and then shoot her back.. shes a fast runner thats why he shoot first the legs., making sure she would’nt go anywhere..

  2. You know what? We always look at these stars as ideal when they are horrible people. Once they get fame, $ and the most attractive spouses they act just like the crazy person they really were anyway. This guy makes the average dude working a job look real fine.

  3. 6 years unemployed? she shouldve divorced that nigga 6 years ago

  4. He was a very insecure man. I don’t believe April could of done anything to make that man happy…. He is a coward!

  5. i don’t need a man they just give headaches and suck positive energy out of you they are vampires most of them. don’t give a fuck about a woman it’s all about them

  6. He’s not a handsome guy, that’s probably why he’s so clingy, it’s a shame

  7. Please Put The Needle In His Arms Legs Head Heart And Mouth He’s Evil…

  8. He was unhappy he couldn’t get an acting gig and too proud to get a normal job and took it out on his wife huh

  9. That coward not sorry he’s glad she’s no longer on earth I hope he rot in jail😒

  10. Wow. He “ended up” shooting her in both legs 🙄 the absolute audacity of these disgustingly selfish men, killing the mother of their children. Just sick.

  11. Insecure little man! You meant to kill her! You had the gun. I hope you get fucked in prison.

  12. So he could bring himself to shooting her, but not shoot himself..what a COWARD, this is so sad on so many levels. I pray that her boys have a somewhat good life, due to the awful memory their father has burned into their head.

  13. I’m starting to think marriage and a family is not the ultimate happy place for a woman.

  14. He didn’t look for other jobs besides acting that was clearly not working. Him failing to provide for his family made him frustrated to a point of being jealous of his late wife who was providing for him.This Micheal character is a coward and a failure in life

  15. FELLAS: If your wife don’t want you let her go. Men are the survivers & we get our sh*t 💩 together. A woman WILL see that & come back or maybe another woman will. This guy will never know.🤨

  16. Why they don’t have men groups on how to deal with their spouses and seek therapy? Why are men are so ashamed to seek therapy? Now he lost his freedom , and his kids . The kids lost their mom and dad. Smfh This needs to be spoked on more.

  17. He could’ve gotten a different job. I’ve worked plenty jobs I wasn’t so happy about until God gave me better. Just crazy

  18. How in the hell you were famous actor would risk a whole career to murder someone that is crazy

  19. 164 texts in one day, has I’ve totally lost control written all over it. Women please know that any weak minded man who displays this kind of behavior will kill you when and if given the chance.

  20. I’m SO SICK of women allowing themselves to be sitting ducks for spurned/rejected lovers/spouses.
    She, as well as countless others, should’ve took her babies and went off the grid. Only keeping in touch with the authorities if needed.
    Don’t tell them what you’re going to do ~ JUST LEAVE QUIETLY.

  21. This is sad because dude appeared to be a normal decent and sane brotha and they actually were a really nice looking couple, my assumption is he didn’t want any part of what Hollywood wanted him to do for more work and it had a heavy impact on him financially 😞

  22. This is why I don’t go for older men. No ,they are not better, they are very dark inside and damaged. Women there age don’t want them. So they end up preying on weak vulnerable females.

  23. Before my grandmother passed away with cancer she schooled me on what to do if I ever got in a bad relationship with a narcissistic, controlling, or abusive man. She always said never say you’re leaving and just make your escape when I go to work even if you have to put all your stuff in a hefty trash bags, then run for your life and don’t look back and remind family and friends not to tell where you went no matter what or just don’t tell anybody else except your mother where you’re going to get there safely. I hate to see so many women that have died over domestic violence, and nobody helps them. Specially, since the COVID shutdown. Prayers to April’s parents, children & family! I wish someone could have saved her. 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️

  24. Premeditated 1 degree murder is what he did. I need to take a break from these videos bc on top of what I’ve been through these videos are plentiful and often and it makes me full with rage and hatred 🤬

  25. What an ass and a loser, when a relationship is over is over! He wanted to end her life period. He couldn’t stand to see his wife with other man.

  26. Premeditated murder. An evil/jealous piece of crap. All he had to do was to find a regular job until he was able to secure an acting role. #DeathSentence should have been the order of the day. My heart goes out to those precious kids.

  27. He had a good career, why on earth would he just through it all away, has for his wife, the only thing she was guilty of is loving him.

  28. Just wow!! What a waste! Not many people make it to become a star. That saying is true that there are way more people that want it than people that got it. Straight living the American Dream and you kill your wife! Sending my Condolences to her family😭

  29. I think she was cheating on him. Because she was younger, pretty and had alot of choices of men where she worked. Plus he’s 60 and having financial problems. So that was probably a motive.

  30. How sad! Never heard of him or her. 6 years unemployed and being an alcoholic is unacceptable! I can see during the pandemic of not working but what about the other four years. RIP April…. 🌹

  31. I thought she was like 30 she looked younger than 40 what a beautiful girl to be killed by the one person who was supposed to protect her. I feel so bad for her kids. RIP April she was beautiful.

  32. If he couldn’t get acting job’s anymore, he just should have gotten a regular job.

  33. It’s not surprising that he made a living “ deceiving” people. That’s what actors get paid to do. This role…that of husband…father….devoted Christian was way out of his league. He sounds like a sociopath and thoroughly ego driven. He marries, a pretty…accomplished….college educated younger woman thereby
    “upping” his profile. If she leaves him…she takes all that with her. He was 52 at the time … desperate and employment opportunities are shrinking. Unfortunately, for him he could see no other way of regaining control and for him…control IS everything.

  34. He’s sick. He can’t deal with anyone leaving him. Then stop abusing women. I wish she never said she was leaving, she should’ve just split. Poor lady, and she left behind 3 kids.
    He’s a POS!
    RIP April 🥀

  35. That movie scene where he slapped Gabriel Union in her face was so realistic that it always gave me an eerie feeling about him.
