This interviewer asks great questions! He also waits for the answer to be completely given and does not interrupt the subject, something that cannot be said of some I have watched recently. I would definitely watch more documentaries with him.

[@theharshtruthoutthere]

The TV which many among us consume daily: TV - promos: - stealing, - killing, - lying, - fornications, - destroying, - hate, - jealously, - un educated, - giving up thinking skills, allowing the thinking to be done by others, - giving up ones health, - fear. In short: Tv promos useing humans sinful nature against them, calling them to sin 24/7/365 until death. Tv promos to be as the father of lies, lucifer: John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. Who give us the TV and all other technical garbage? - the old devil through his puppets with different faces and names did. Once someone said like this: - you say you are good person? - then count the days you have been alone, away from other souls of humans and away from technical garbage, (TVs, phones,) , just you and nature. A soul who mange to live on their own without others nor the world, is the only one who can answer the question of :how good of a person they are. Cause you being good ain´t valued alone of how many and how you can help others. How good of a person you are also lays in your mindset, your though, how pure or unsure these are. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Let me catch my son killing 2 people and expecting a jail free card

[@jbarnes8]

@Aaron Zimmerman The dude might be putting on a front, but he seems genuine. I don't think he's a threat to society anymore. He did some stupid she when he was a literal child and got 170 years. 170 years after only being here 13. I know the dude took some lives when he was younger, and grounding the kid for 25 years seems like quite the punishment. This dude seems intelligent and mature enough to be let back into society assuming his prison record reflects his on-camera persona.

[@iantempleton313]

A lot of mixed feelings watching this. All the people in this prison are there for a reason, but when they talk they are still human with interests, personalities, hobbies, yet they've done the unspeakable. It's amazing how the human mind works.

[@ufodeath]

Some of them seem very self aware and remorseful of what they have done such that they seem rehabilitated. for some of these, It's as though the old person that committed the heinous actions is dead, and while the same memories are shared, the new person clearly is much more self-reflective and doesn't want to hurt anyone. While not all are rehabilitated for sure, I feel as though some of these should be on parole sooner.

[@ravayzoglman752]

eventually they will feel the pain that their victims did... but i don't agree with the one that got sent there at 15

[@heavenjackson1825]

Ian Templeton what is humans

[@wbm3787]

​@@ufodeath Well sure. That they seem or appear remorseful or rehabilitated is goal oriented/purpose driven. Once they reach the goal/achieve the purpose. What they seemed to be or appeared too be dissipates rapidly. Death Row inmates have by they're deeds, actions, choices forfeited consideration. They lose right to life.

[@stevenp3176]

Soldado de Juan José Torres No they weren’t. Stop committing crimes and you’ll stop having issues with law enforcement.

[@Praetorian8814]

I love how respectful Trevor is to the offenders. Always asking politely if he may enter their cell, pick up/look at something of theirs, etc. Even with the literal baby killer, Frederick Baer, the 'worst' he said was "In your case, I can maybe understand why some people believe in the death penalty" - whereas other interviewers would prolly make it clear how disgusted and reviling such an act is.

[@doingit66]

They don’t deserve respect tbh

[@staystrong8966]

I've said it before, I'll say it again. This host is exceptional in the absolute human dignity and respect he gives to the inmates with his words. "Please," and "Thank you," and "May I?" and "if you don't mind." It's probably better treatment than they get from most of the COs.

When death row inmates talk about the unrealness of the death penalty, knowing their buddy is going away to die and they will too, and how awful it is, I've never heard a single one of them acknowledge that they did the exact same thing to someone else, and far more cruel and abruptly.

i mean an experience lasting from as little as 5 seconds is a better way to go out then 80 years of isolation then needle

[@vSnippi]

yeah they coppin the punishment, but dang 13 and eligible for parole at 100. dudes brain didnt even develop yet. as much as the crime was bad. wouldnt you think sending him off to brainwash his neurological would be more beneficial to humanity. atleast then when they are released we shouldn't have to worry about reoffences as much

[@vSnippi]

think bout this. people go to prison because they cant follow rules from the government. those people are generally brought up through a tough childhood, you hear it all the time. it takes 90 days for changes to set in your brain with consistent training. the saying, "they will always be that person" cannot be any more false.

[@vSnippi]

also isolation is way more cruel to humans then a 5 min death. atleast when yo dying your body kicks in adrenaline to help stop pain. in jail, you can be depressed get bashed raped, cry every second, but you only served one week and have 40 years to go. now imagine you being told that over you being killed. ngl fam im takin death anyday over that sheit. not to mention society makes it so hard for ex cons to assert them back into living.

Epoxygleu na they must of told all the prisoners to not proclaim innocence and act calm. They don’t want people to know the truth which is they put a 13 year old for 170 years When he most likely didn’t kill anyone . He was an accomplice. The 15 year old with him did the crime most likely. There was no conclusive evidence which one of them did it. Just recently a white lady stabbed a 16 year old black boy in the back and killed him . The judge said she could be rehabilitated and gave her 6 years. But this kid can’t be rehabilitated at age 13?

[@Charmander009]

Epoxygleu all evidence indicates the 15 year old did the murder. Think about it . Who is more likely to murder the 13 or 15. The 15 snitched on the 13 year old as part of a plea deal and got 5 years. A soon he got out , he raped some girl and got sentenced to like 20 years . So yea pretty obvious . The 13 year olds public defender told him to just accept the murder charge because they won’t sentence a child to jail . Bad advice there
