I’m from the area where Jaren was found, and I remember how much the fact she was a dancer was emphasized on the news. Everyone’s attitude, sadly, was “what do you expect dancing in New Orleans?” which is obviously ignoring the bigger issue and victim blaming. Thank you for always being compassionate and empathetic for the victims ❤

It’s disgusting how people judge others and make assumptions. I live in Yorkshire, England. The infamous “Yorkshire Ripper” mainly targeted sex workers and got away with his sick and evil crimes as the poor victims weren’t classed important enough.

[@thomasloney612]

The motive was probably a thrill kill. Just the fact that they were looking for other girls before finding Jaren tells me they were looking for someone they intended to murder. Probably a dark, twisted goal of the boyfriend that the girlfriend was more than willing to help him with.

[@craigsowers8456]

Had a work friend that lost his young Son to this type of twisted "Thrill Kill" mentality. At first I thought maybe they lured Jaren in for a 3 some that, from her history, was rejected. But the absence of any DNA points more to your guess ... especially since they scouted the beach a month before. There truly is evil in this World. RIP Jaren, prayers for her Daughter to rise above it as she grows up.

[@cuttlefishagain]

Yeah I agree. Also why only 2nd degree murder for a thrill kill? It was obviously premediated (them prowling around for other dancers). Whatever, justice system...

There were LINES for DISH WASHER JOBS for fucks sake. I've been homeless...why? Because my husband lost his job when he lost 2 fingers in a work related accient and we were renting a master bedroom in a home and the landlord kicked us out the DAY my husband came home from the hospital cause "if he is not working i can't let rent get behind"...he couldnt even give us 2 weeks to allow for the work comp payments to start (which btw is only $500 once every TWO weeks, when he had been making 700 every single week!) homelessness...being down on your luck, ect, can happen to ANYONE at ANY TIME. Especially when youre like us, we do NOT have family. I have been on my own since i was 15. I joined the CARNIVAL at 15 cause i had NO family who could care for me after my grandma sold my childhood home and moved to a senior only mobile home park. I lived and worked and traveled in the carnival from 15 years old til i was 27 years old (im 35 now, and met my husband who also worked in the carnival, on my 21st bday in 2009) Now thankfully my hubby has a good job installing gutters making 1200+ a week, rent a 2 bedroom home and own a horse again.....however I KNOW at ANY moment for ANY reason this could be taken away...and your security could be taken away from YOU ...YEP EVEN YOU...at ANY moment.

​​@@Equestrianista_I agree with @sneed4987 100%. Adrian is a very shallow story-teller, he can pitch his eyebrows as high as he wants, but his efforts to whitewash all the victims of his videos are just ridiculous propaganda tricks. Maybe he thinks he's going to get more clicks w that. he's read her last Facebook post - she's bragging about everything she's done! Really? I think she's made some terrible choices and that didn't lead her to being stronger but to her death... As simple as that. The problem in this country is much larger, though. Kids try to replicate their parents' lives and behavior - being stupid, promiscuous, fucking around all the time - baby momma here, another one there... Marriages don't last... Looks trump substance nowadays, folks think social media photos with your kids is what you do for good parenting. Speaking of broken homes - how many ppl do you know whose parents are still together? This is the pandemic and no one is talking about it. And you're just another example! Yes, I know, fingers get chopped off and life can take turns for the worse - well, generally speaking you're not living in a war-torn village in Africa. You just haven't learned the true values since your parents weren't around. You don't know better. Now you'll probably make a bunch of babies that you can't support, break up with your other half, and cycle repeats. Nothing personal, but that's just statistics. If you end up growing old together with your other half - that's like you hitting the jackpot.

I have seen people hate on women and men who are prostitutes just because that is their job to make ends meet yet these same people have 0 issue going to a "escort" yet its the same thing.

[@nathanb5923]

Yes, I agree. I have watched so many true crime videos that I think that I ought to by now be inured to hearing of these brutal killings but this one in particular has left me puzzled, angry, shocked and deeply saddened. Why was she killed? There is never really a good reason for brutally murdering anyone but knowing this can at least help the viewer and the family in particular to perhaps begin processing the death but hers was so utterly pointless that it is made all the more poignant. And why the wanton desecration of her body afterwards? Jesus ☹️

[@HartleyBurns]

@@simonpeters5977 That is a horrible thing to say. You can't judge someone on the circumstances of their life as life is unpredictable. She may have had the child when she was in a better situation finically or felt she was in a place she could provide for her but it fell through because that is what happens in life. Just because she worked a job that many consider 'indecent' and constantly villainise in media and press doesn't mean she was a terrible person or mother who doesn't deserve a child. It means that she needed money and took a job, like anyone would. My parents had me and my younger sibling and lived a good, stable life for ages then, bam, we became homeless for years. So many mothers can provide for their child and live in a comfortable place financially yet abuse their children and neglect them and I think those are the people who do not deserve to be parents - The only people who don't deserve children are those who clearly lack love for them. And, you're right, we will never know what kind of mother she really was yet why do you feel the need to comment something like this on a video about her brutal murder? Have you ever heard the phrase if you have nothing nice to say then don't say anything? Because that kind of comment on the video about the innocent victim of a killing is not a good look, especially when you don't know what kind of mother she was either yet clearly seem to think the child would have been better off elsewhere despite no evidence to back this up other than your own bitterness.

There is no shame in trying to make a living this way. Media truly disgusts me by portraying a human being so unjustly. Thank you Adrian for the respect you always show the victims. No one deserves to die so horrendously. 😢

[@sneed4987]

Yes there is. If she chose to get a stable real job and provide a good life for her daughter instead of being a stripper then this wouldn't have happened

[@mi.l3na]

@@sneed4987 it is a real job. you're own morals may dictate that it isn't the best job TO YOU, but it is a real job. and sick and depraved people exist everywhere, so there is absolutely no saying in that it wouldn't have happened had she not been working there. If not her, someone else. Get off your moral high horse and realise people are not always in the best spaces to make the safest choices, or choices that are gonna personally please you.

[@starry.skye.]

@@sneed4987This is so disrespectful… You don’t know that she didn’t try. Some people just have no choice but to go down that route and there’s nothing wrong with that. It still could have happened either way. People can end up a victim of this even without working in a “dangerous” job

[@sneed4987]

@s If she "tried" she could've started out at a minimum wage job anywhere instead of being a drug addicted stripper in New Orleans. She doesn't deserve any respect. And sure it can happen to anyone, it's just more likely to happen to nasty druggy strippers

[@Equestrianista_]

@@starry.skye. That Sneed guy is just a scumbag himself, probably the kind who would murder a woman just because she works in a strip club or anything that he don't "approve" of. Truth is she could have had ANY job, or no job at all, and something bad like this STILL could have happened, as murder CAN and DOES happen to people from ALL walks of life, even those who did not live any type of high-risk lifestyle. Idk if Sneed is capable of love but i feel sorry for anyone who they might love if they were murdered, probably talk shit about that person too. Some people don't deserve the luxury of breathing...

[@anthonyr598]

My god….that Facebook post from Jaren is just so damn inspiring and enlightening and just hopeful. It’s a shame of our humanity that such a powerful and brilliant soul was taken away.

What a senseless crime! I also find it extremely disturbing how many ppl kill & dismember the bodies of their victims! Anyone who can do something like that deserves to b locked away for the rest of their life! Thanks again Adrian for another well thought video that detailed the crime but was respectful to the victims!

[@moondancer4660]

If you wind up in a situation where you really don't have much choice but to be an exotic dancer, do your job, do it well and never, ever do your job anywhere else besides the club you work at! Don't work at a club where they don't have bouncers who will walk you to your car when you get off of work and never ever go home with a customer! Always remember in the eyes of the customer's you are less than human.

[@Seriousbomb54]

the entire branch in itself has problems. the "provider", the customers and the ppl inbetween. that they indirectly hate each other is sadly not really seen by the public. there would have been other options if she just kept looking and maybe seek support, but then again she most likely would be susceptible to frauds etc. think the reason most ppl don't want to deal with it is simply because the ppl that are "working" in it have no other option than to deny the public other options of help. so they indirectly like harming themselves. you can see this pretty early when somone from that branch marks you as an evil person simply for offering them other ways of life.

[@juliapalfrey]

This is sick how could they do that to her. Jaren was just trying to keep a roof over her family's heads. So very tragic and sad.

[@English_rose_clairebear]

I just can’t believe there is no motive to this horrific crime?? Like there must have been something? But either way I feel totally heartbroken 💔 for Jarens family and I send my condolences to them especially her daughter Riley may she know her mother did everything she could have done for her and above all else she was a fighter and a great mum RIP

[@stephendacey8761]

Adrian, I like your presentation skills, and the empathy you show to the victims. To me, your channel is #1 as far as true crime. All your subscribers watch your videos to the end. Many channels are more about the creator than the story presented. A lot of subscribers on other channels go straight to the comment section to praise the creator w/o even watching the full video, but not your subscribers who talk mainly about the story and less about the content creator. You have a talent of telling a very interesting story. Thank you!

[@jennyday8409]

I am relatively new to this channel, but I am already hooked! You have a lovely tone of voice and clearly spend a lot of time creating your videos, making them factual and interesting whilst being sensitive and tactful to the victims. Thank you for what you do.

Except for getting a real job or career to support her family instead of stripping

[@GR-ek9qo]

@Truth Crime did you know her personally? Comments like yours represent what’s wrong with this world. Sometimes, if you’re not educated, employers have no interest in you. Again, how do you not know she was not doing everything she could for her daughter? So sad how people immediately jump to negativity 🤔

[@sneed4987]

@G R anyone can start at a minimum wage job without any education or experience, she just thought that was below her and would rather strip and do drugs than support her family

[@ericastapleton7042]

It seems as though they were looking for someone to kill. I think it was very premeditated and they probably had the area covered with plastic to avoid any DNA evidence. Unless it was done in another property. But I'm glad they were caught and never to be released. RIP Jaren. Thank you Adrian ⭐

[@AmeliasMiMi]

My thoughts exactly when I heard they only were found guilty of 2nd degree murder and manslaughter? Come on!! This is premeditation or it doesn’t exist. 😢

The neighbour also mentioned a strong bleach smell, so whatever little DNA that may have been found could have been very degraded

Motive can make a big difference in sentencing, though. I hate the words, "There was no motive." There's always a motive. These were thrill killers.

@@itsjeninMass What's worse is knowing that they had once known the victim, perhaps they had even been friendly for a time, and they still chose to kill her. They are by far the most vile people to exist. I pray they're treated like the insects they are in prison.

[@mongoose6685]

6:40 Having a child while a teenager and out of wedlock is not a fleeting decision and will definitely define both the parent and the child for the rest of their lives. Becoming a "dancer" (that gets paid 700$ for a private date) is also a very dangerous job for women and there is usually many bad decisions that preceded that job. Someone with no training can make a decent living waiting tables.
