Killer Threatens Surviving Victim BUT His Own Mom Turns Against Him | The Real Friday the 13th

“I told myself: I’m not going down without a fight”
On Friday the 13th, best friends Misty Cockerill and Tanya Smith are walking home from a high school party when they suddenly bump into a stranger, and things quickly go dark. While Misty wakes up in the hospital, investigators arrive at the crime scene and receive a disturbing phone call from a man claiming to be the attacker: time is running out almost as soon as the cat and mouse chase begins. This is what happened in Abbotsford, British Columbia, in 2002.

@@themightybalian I believe when you give testimony you can’t speak to the accused or at least will be stopped from doing so. If convicted the victims or the families can say what they want to say to a now convicted offender at the end of the trial. A courtroom has its rules so it’s better to make your declaration without insulting or engaging in any way with the offender because you may be asked to leave the courtroom and then it’s just prolonging something no victim could describe as a nice experience sure you get the person to pay but you must describe what happens to you and questioned about it, not something easy for victims of assault, rape and intent of murder.

Shoutout to Driver’s mother, she is almost as much a hero as Misty is. It takes incredible strength and moral conviction to turn your own child in to police, and I would venture to say 90% of parents of criminals would refuse to do this or flat out aid and abet their evil children, and/or do everything in their power to impede any investigation. At best, most of these monsters’ parents will disavow their spawn after the fact (ie trial and conviction) but would never have initially brought them to face justice themselves. As I said, Mama Driver is pretty heroic herself. She’s the reason Tanya’s murderer wound up behind bars.

TRUTH! There was an episode of "The Nightmare Next Door" named "Co-Ed Confidential" where the police suspected the boyfriend of murder. The boyfriend immediately hired an attorney, listened to the attorney, and moved back home in another state. The police felt he MUST be guilty. In the end, he wasn't guilty. The police and victim's family were perplexed why he hired an attorney when he wasn't guilty and even seemed to blame him that they didn't have any other suspects because they spent so much time investigating him. The young man did it right. Hire an attorney.

While I think there is nothing wrong with people who still hate those shit criminals and suffered for life but that is sad and nothing to admire/love about that part. There for I do not suprise this person only talk about those who progress better. P/s: I admire who can progress on their life after that but I don’t think I can let some shit like that out of my mind for my whole life. I will want that monster die in pain.

Thanks for the upload!!! Still watching but currently at the gravesite part, and not only was this guy an absolute monster, but he was beyond sick in the head. What a psycho!!! Glad at least Misty made it, but poor Tanya and her family that had to live with this tragic death of such a young lady. Have to see what ends up happening now.

as always, an excellent rehashing and retelling of extant information, in a way that - like no other - celebrates the hero and protagonist of the story: the victim. thank ya'll.

Greatest respect to your work for placing the focus on the victims and survivors, not the insignificant & forgettable offenders. Thank you for acting as a vehicle for survivors to lend strength, support, and courage to other survivors. Rest brightly in paradise Tanya. My ongoing love & compassion to Misty, those who love her, and all who love the beautiful Tanya.

It never ceases to amaze me just how sinister, monstrous, demonic, savage and evil men can be. It seems like these kinds of men have multiplied in these last days.

[@NotoriousEmu]

I have my own horror story about this man after a close call. I live in this city and was a teenager at this time. This was a scary time for every one. Driver consistently made threats mocked the police.

[@Yorbelize]

I admire this mother, we have too many cases of parents protecting their killer children or flat out refusing to believe that they are capable of such crimes. Chris Watts parents are perfect examples of shameless parents.

Death penalty for all savage rapist and murderers!!!

[@mandylloyd]

That results in more dead rape victims - if you give rapists the death penalty or a life sentence in jail, you take away the main incentive to keep her alive. The perpetrator is more inclined to ensure their is no witness. I understand where you are coming from, but it unfortunately is not an effective solution xx

[@anomaly3215]

@@mandylloyd braindead take, letting them walk free means they're most likely going to do it again since they know they can get away with it.. people who commit these crimes of power often have a disorder or a god complex for example, so them avoiding that sentence will make them feel even more powerful, so give them MORE incentive to commit more r4pes and murders.. let alone the fact that if you're psychologically capable of doing that to someone, r4pe or murder, you're definitely capable of doing it again, so yes put them in prison and throw away the key, because anyone who can do that is going to permanently be a danger to society and i bet you'd be talking differently if you were the victim

[@lvplvp]

@@mandylloyd That's silly. A penality should lower crimes and discourage criminals from such acts. The current system isn't working or helping anyone. We must consider victims and the community at large who are always in constant fear because the criminals will chill in a cell for few years then released again to the world outside.

He offered me a ride once. Thank God I said No. Misty is a very strong woman. I can only imagine how hard it was to go through all of that.

Can ya imagine being the mother of this person or anyone like him?? The fear and horror of finding out it's your child doing this ?? I'd be just like her so as one mother to the next u are appreciated and given much respect!!

[@mytruecrimelibrary]

The Fraser Valley in BC is an incredibly beautiful place but there are a LOT of infamous killers who operated in the area. I'm from Chilliwack (very close to Abbotsford). Keith Hunter Jesperson is from our town, Clifford Olson killed 11 kids in the area, Russell Williams was posted to Chilliwack's military base. And of course Terri Driver. A bit further north you have The Highway of Tears murders and to the west was Robert Pickton's farm of horrors.

I’d heard her story before on I survived, I’ve seen the episode many times during the years but I never heard of it anywhere except I survived. Thanks for telling the story here!

[@MK-285]

I've previously seen Misty tell her story on I Survived... At the end of the episode, they touch on the fact that he taunted Misty & defaced Tanya's headstone, but they don't give a detailed account like they do here. It's horrifying what he put those girls through & to continue the attacks & trauma even after is inhumane & unfathomable. (He carried that heavy stone & placed it on a car in broad daylight & NO ONE saw him, that was just luck, unfortunately. He doesn't deserve to see sunlight ever again. Saying something that his own mother knew his evil enough to believe it could b him & turn him in.

[@alexmegalos7144]

Hi there, I remember this. I am sad to say the Canadian justice is not what it seems. People that are rapest, murders and traitors do not spend life in prison. There was a person in Alberta who raped and killed. He as I believe is living in Vancouver BC now. Just is stupid in Canada, and the victims are still hurt in the future by these people getting released. If they show remorse, if they show understanding in what they did, the Canadian justice system will let them go. It is so sad.
