[@ikshakranti6582]

Demonic! Anyone who can do this to an innocent baby deserves no mercy or second chance. RIP to this beautiful family and condolences and prayers for their loved ones😢

[@elizabeth_777]

My deepest condolences to the loved ones of the victims.

NEVER EVER LET YOURSELF BE TIED UP AND TAKEN TO A SECOND LOCATION. FIGHT. I WOULD RATHER DIE FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE THAN TO BE KILLED TIED UP AND HELPLESS

[@genxiong2695]

Agree. If the two brothers took up a fight against the gunman there's a slight possibility one may survive to tell the tale (at least the wife and child). Instead, both chose to comply and be bound. Again, I'd rather fight for my life even if I die trying than be tied up and shot execution style.

[@DEEPERSTATER]

I've said that myself but these people had guns on them the woman may of been made to put the zip ties on. Sometimes there's no other way out.

[@CrocodileWhispers]

@@DEEPERSTATER Yea well there's a reason he needs them in zipties. Even with a gun, they are still a threat. AND THAT'S THE POINT. Idk if you're some troll doing some pilpul with ur tag but whatever

[@677singh]

And how many times were in you that same situation?

[@prv7966]

What difference does it make? They would've been shot either way.

[@chuchoelroto1318]

That is so sad to find out. I was hoping that they would be okay. Especially, the little angel. My condolences to the families. I'm sorry for your losses.

[@Lunasent]

I’ll never understand why the law will let someone who’s kidnapped before BACK on the streets. They could all still be alive!

[@acgillespie]

You know the answer because you just said so. Duh

[@whitedawn9562j]

Wow you are amazing, the same I’m asking ,, looks like there’s people in jobs and they are very incompetent, whit it!maybe ,,book smart, but not common sense at all ! How stupid they look now , that the blood of the family is in their hands!🤷‍♀️😞

[@acgillespie]

This really gets me. My stomach is turning. The pure evil out there 😢

[@angelali7731]

No mercy for the perpetrators of this horrific crime.

[@carmenslator5969]

Why was he let out of jail to the first time?!

[@kishanpuriya7365]

So that he could commit some big crime.

[@pamkaur5412]

Now the news says that he left the baby but killed all the 3 adults. The baby died on her own, due to exposure. This is even worse. How could he leave that child all by herself in that field.

[@davidsiracuse6672]

The insanity and violence in this country is getting worse by the day. My thoughts and prayers go out to the victims family and friends. At what point do Americans take to the streets to find a solution to the rising crime in this country. Instead people protest about their pathetic feelings being hurt because of words. People need to wake up.

[@birdlynn417]

Look how they treat people in Mexico and South America, what you see in the movies is real. Brutal. That is why we should close the border.

[@nha3920]

The judge is responsible for letting this criminal out.

[@commandoslayer]

Whatever vendetta he may have had with the adults, there was no reason to harm the child. The world is full of mentally sick people.

[@Eatwithme77]

It’s crazy looks like he was only delivering food or somthing. Also look at how the victim looked up at the camera 😭 how sad! He must have wanted their money & business

[@vespermartini2556]

Yeah, this looks like a revenge killing, not your typical burglary and kidnapping them.

[@commandoslayer]

@@vespermartini2556 Maybe the reason why he killed the child was because he thought the child would grow up and avenge her parents deaths.

[@tessamarie8698]

Mothers and children who aren’t a part of what their husbands do should be left alone. This is like the family in California the cartel killed last month. They shot an innocent grandmother, a 16 year old girl and a 10 month old baby in the head with the two guys involved in drugs. It’s another level of psycho to do such evil.

[@Mimi87796]

He used to work for the family and was let go.

[@happy.valley13]

I actually live in Merced and I still remember hearing cruel story last year and they were very well known people at my school and stuff 😭🙏🕊️

[@whitedawn9562j]

If he was already convinced of another crime , why he got out , who let the dog out?????🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

[@adishivaarunajadda7783]

Seeing all this and not being able to change all this .....makes me feel ...I'd rather be dead myself.... Man is the worst creation.....

[@sidali2590]

This is horrific and sickening

[@mohamedh0786]

Very Sad! Pure evil

[@Jephthah923]

But yet most Americans don't see the need for capital punishment. My deepest condolences and prayers for the families.

[@TrangLe-kc6os]

Rest In Peace the family 🙏🙏🙏

[@dennismorris7573]

Absolutely horrible - so sorry to hear this news from an otherwise safe community I know well. Deepest condolences.

[@desertrose00]

Their big mistake was to employ a man with prior conviction. Please be careful and do thorough background check before employing someone. Don’t employ people who have had past convictions for violent crimes.

[@pamkaur5412]

At the start of the video, why is the younger brother letting the killer enter inside the premises. He is texting and running towards the entrance of the trailer while the killer is coming slowly behind him. It looks like the killer told him that he wants to have a word with his brother and that is what the younger brother was texting. Younger brother should not have blindly trusted this man.

[@anon21qwerty17]

the criminal worked for these two brothers before being kicked out for some misdeeds. the brothers knew the criminal, but not aware of his intention this time.

[@saywhatyouwant888]

Victims camera are movement sensitive ,hence you see him coming out to see and happens to meet the sob .who disguised as homeless needing food so you now see him walking up trailer behind victim by then sob drops the trash plastic holding a gun ..this tragedy has really taken me bad 🥺

To be honest, none of us is safe when there's ice cold monsters like this running loose in society.

Rip beautiful angels .this world is full of monsters lurking around.your now in a better place No more pain..how do you look in to eye of a baby knowing the world failed to protect 😢 it 🥺🥺🥺

[@AvarageMexicoBall]

Kidnapping is one thing, but KIDNAPPING FOUR AND KILLING THEM INCLUDING A *LEGIT 8 MOTN OLD BABY* is a whole upper level. Whoever did this should be ashamed of theirselves

[@midnight3929]

Something behind the scenes must’ve went down between killer and victims. This was no random act

[@lenawinship2091]

I'm sorry don't know how to explain it to anyone but before this family was announced deceased i had seen the security footage and it just it was like a premonition was like so scared that they were dead it just felt real in a terrifying way. In a way that u don't even verbally admit it. Like u don't want it to be true.
