Umm, squat does NOT mean squatting to shit. It means squatting as in staying in a building you don't own. Who the hell told that man that nonsense?

Graham Greene was in the opening credits. He's one of my favorite actors. I really enjoyed his work on the Red Green show and The lonesome Dove television series. He was nominated for an academy award in a supporting role for his role in dances with wolves.

Parents just no. You don't let your 16 year old go off into an unknown place for a weekend. Sorry but this makes me mad.

[@Moeporcelli57]

I agree with you. I had many arguments with my 16 year old daughter because I wouldn't let her go to strange places with people I didn't know.

I love that you think any of these kids had parents that were trying to raise them. I grew up then, & there is a reason that the music was so angry, why we all used drugs & why we all hung out on the street. In the best circumstances, we had parents who just couldn't evolve with their kids, too stuck in their traditions & hang ups, but the majority has abusive, neglectful, addicted, mentally ill, etc parents. We left to be saver & loved by our peers, but we were young & stupid, & we all had to figure out how to survive. You should be mad at our society not a parent.

[@goblin-night]

​@@nicholasschoonbeck6866"Mad at society not a parent"??? Who exactly is more responsible than her parents? The government you mean? If the government was so in control that this could be considered their responsibility, there sure as shit would be more misery than there is now in such a far left dystopia, not less.

“He’s sentenced to life behind bars ……he’s eligible for parole in 10 years “ ……W T F is that ? ? ? That’s the most cockamamie nonsense I ever heard . Is he really sentenced to life ….really ? No . He gets to keep asking to get out .

That's a huge problem. They also suddenly behave in jail and get out for 'good behaviour' wtf of course they'll be good... But another problem is most of the public don't even know that life isn't life, it's a few years and they out again.

@realcrime *THANKS SO MUCH* for posting these great true crime shows- although they may be older shows/cases and the technology or science isn’t always the most modern… these are still intelligent & intriguing investigations, as well as cases/stories that are interesting & well made programs which deserve to be told/shared with ppl. Thanks for using his platform to promote the message behind these cases and sharing the important lessons underlying these episodes and also continuing the legacy of the victims of these crimes- furthering the warnings & risks which these stories hold. In addition, I appreciate being able to watch programs from Canada bc Im usually not familiar w/ the crimes and appreciate being able to learn more abt law/justice systems in other countries. Plus, you never know if someone, & whom, might be impacted- even helped- by sharing the cases or watching shows like these. THANKS AGAIN @realcrime

It's more like the dark world of skinheads, back then skins used to prey on punks and they didn't get along. But there were kinds of skins that were cool and just liked the music and culture. Punks were just disaffected suburban kids who enjoyed the music scene and dressed differently than what was in fashion at the time. Of course there's bad apples in any group of people and punks aren't any different.

The harrowing journey into the world of forensic science showcased in this video is both enlightening and deeply unsettling. The chilling details of the case, from the discovery of the charred body to the significance of the vodka bottle, highlight the meticulous nature of crime investigations. 'Real Crime' has masterfully presented the intricacies of this cold case. As someone deeply interested in the convergence of evidence and justice, I'm always on the lookout for such profound insights. 🖤 #ForensicRevelations

What are professional parents

[@BrittMFH]

Right! I wondered that as well. Certainly they didn't do a great job parenting their 16-year old daughter if they let her spend weekends on the streets.

[@amoreanissa1337]

I’m sorry for this but I’m going to have to blame her parents for this. You let your 16YEAR OLD GIRL go and sleep rough in the name of belonging to some ‘cool’ punk culture all weekend, who does that? Poor girl had a terribly horrific death all cos her parents didn’t want to parent her properly 😢 yes give your children their freedom but she was a 16 year old girl, vulnerable out there hanging around people intoxicated with all sorts of drugs and alcohol.

She was 16. No one deserves to die like that for being young and wanting to fit in somewhere and feel special.

Every time I hear joke of punishments the Canadian justice gives to teenagers who kill, even brutally kill it makes me mad all over again. This evil creature will be out after 10 years (probably he is already out) and the Canadian justice system provides him with a new name, most likely a job and/benefits, because the poor evil teenager has a long life ahead of him, he just made a mistake, as if his victim wasn’t young enough to die, who also made a big mistake hanging out with the wrong people. Even if he stopped killing, (mostly likely learned in prison how not to get caught next time, evil people don’t change) , but let’s say for argument sake he “rehabilitated”, what message do you send to other teenagers? You will do between 1-10 years where 10 years is for the most evil, if a teen “just” raped and doesn’t have history either no jail or maybe a year or two.

[@little-rascal]

Just because these days everyone thinks that way does not mean that if you mixed with the wrong people and chose that way that when things happened, you don’t need to be held responsible for your own actions. It’s your own actions that led to your consequences. These days the belief is that you can do whatever and if something bad happens to you it is all others fault. No, sorry. You still need to take the responsibility of your own actions. Not the actions of others, but your own actions.
