The Most TWISTED Case You've Ever Heard | Documentary

[@nyxionn]

You know my father was put in prison for 15 years for running a con where he'd spray fruit trees for bugs, but he'd use water and food coloring instead of pesticide. I'm talking about small orchards. This was in the 90s. He was convicted a month after I was born. He got paroled when I was 13, but he had a traumatic brain injury from fighting in prison that deteriorated, and he passed when I was 19 a sophomore at Texas Tech. This guy was given probation after probation for violent crimes until a kid wound up dead, my father never committed a violent crime, he came up with a dumb con to make a quick buck for his extremely poor family and prison killed him I got 6 years with him.

[@sierrabroome1612]

The system is so rigged and it’s absolutely heartbreaking. I’m absolutely sorry for you and your family. His love for his family lead him to do what he did. It’s not fair what happened to him, and I at least hope in those 6 years you had with him, you had some good moments to remember him by ❤

[@theintellectualsamurai7265]

I feel for you bro, I’m from the Uk. And have watched enough crime docs and seen how the U.S. Penal System works. It is crazy. I feel for you and your family because your dad, certainly can’t have been expecting such a harsh punishment , either. Apparently the U.S. take their agriculture very seriously, so if he thought he could make a few extra bucks to feed the family but the actual offence is really frowned upon and your getting 15 years in the pen for that. Sheeesh… Seriously in the Uk, he might get banned for from working in the industry and suspended sentence or a fine would be the likely outcome. I’ve also been to prison. And we can thank god for small mercies, I think. I listened to a podcast last night about a book called fish. A young kid from the suburbs. Green as they come in prison terms. This guy T.J. Pursell. Is the author, similar background to me. But this guy in the us jail was gaslight by experienced older convicts. Super friendly, plied him with drink, then turned on him and took turns r@ping him and they flipped a coin for who hee belongs to now. White guy from the suburbs in jail in 78, first timer ⏱️ . This kid was being super naive admittedly. My point being. The prison system in the Uk, is so much more civilised, I was in prison with quite a famous old con in the early 90’s a reasonably well known hard man ex boxer ( lol) Hands like shovels ( total narcissist) anyway it was said to me. Never to go in the shower when Paul Sykes was in. Coz he would k.o. You and have his way with you. Now I mentioned this story on a KZbin documentary about Paul Sykes ( ironically his dad was a prison officer, too) This Ex con was giving me pelters saying there’s no such thing as jail bent. If your doing long enough, I bet there is. Going back to my point. The u.s. is so vast. It’s just so hard to not run like meat packing factories. I mean the transportation from jail to jails sounds like the 7 th circle of hell. God bless you and father. I hope this makes sense, because I haven’t fully edited it yet.

It's so sad nobody came to the Jeremiahs rescue from this horrible family. I grew up in a very abusive household. I was finally rescued at 7 after a near death beating. School kept asking me why i can't sit down and things went downhill from there. I was rushed to the hospital and stayed for a week. Then foster care till i was 16. I'm still to this day terrified of my dad. As an adult I've seen him twice, and he acted like he didn't even recognize me. Why can I remember him, but he didn't acknowledge me. Walked right past me. He has a whole new family and new life. Idk now that I'm older I have been so interested in the abuse cases. Some of the videos being back memories I had forgotten about. Sometimes, I feel like I need to talk about it and release these emotions. I guess I'm doing that now. I struggle, but surprisingly I walk around everyday with a big ol smile thanking God for another day.

@@brii.badazz I hope you are having a great day/evening first and foremost. I think we need more awareness anytime a child is involved and anything you can do even if it's just a friendly smile or maybe a hug might just be what makes their day better is absolutely worth it. I turn 45 today and my mother has been difficult throughout my life and has made some horrible decisions and life choices, but I think it's gotten worse. Over more than a year now my mother abuses me every chance she gets basically, such as telling me I'm always wrong, I am the problem, that I don't care.... All while I struggle to survive as my life, my dogs, and my home that my dad left me are being threatened on a constant basis since my landlord (a neighbor offered to help keep my house getting taken for property taxes) forced me to have his violent employee that can't go 24 hours without going through withdrawal if he doesn't have his meth. Not just humiliating and belittling me, actively supports those 2 and constantly we have yelling matches where I'm just standing up for myself and she refuses to even listen to me. Me and my 5 dogs are in a bedroom with a metal gate in front of the door in MY house and he's still tried to attack me out of the blue for whatever reason he decides is relevant. Police don't help, they blamed me last time I callled for wasting resources. Of course the landlord and roommate were there so I couldn't explain anything or show video or audio recordings I've had to keep since this all started and he tried to attack me before even entering my house. Landlord refuses to do anything other than actively do whatever I don't want just to put more pressure on me. I had to start putting videos on FB and here on KZbin as well. I can't type anymore. Hope you have a wonderful day young lady... And everyone else too! Smile! - it makes people wonder what you're up to. 🍻🌎❤️🌮🎶

I went to school with Jeremiah, we would sit next together in science class and would hangout a lot at school, I remember one day he moved schools and I never saw him again, next year 8th grade we had some counselors come into the classrooms, explaining our previous classmate had passed away. I still have his account following me on Instagram. I'm 19 now and it's so heartbreaking looking back and seeing what happened to him. He was such a sweet person and had the funniest things to say, he was a good friend and I would love to see where he would be today. Rest in Peace Jeremiah, everyone still thinks about you and misses you more and more everyday.

I can disagree with the judge’s decision here while still thinking it’s horrible precedent to set that judges can face consequences because they let someone go that later committed a more heinous crime. This only will push judges to give EVERYONE the maximum sentence, even in cases where it isn’t deserved. They’d do this bc on the off chance that person is a lunatic, they could lose their job for showing leniency. There’s a ton more reasons that this is awful precedent to set for future court proceedings but I’m not gonna make this a whole essay.

Seeing Jeremiah’s unanswered texts to his mom was heartbreaking. That poor boy just wanted his mother to love him, he wanted her to care about him, he wanted to not have to doubt it anymore. He worried about her and wanted to know she was ok, and she couldn’t give him any of that. I see my kids every single day, and I can’t imagine ever seeing a text from them and just ignoring it, especially one saying “I love you.” This woman disastrously failed on so many levels, worst of all was the man she kept around. I just don’t understand some things.

[@kell_checks_in]

Jeremiah was an especially introspective kid. He knew he was in a bad situation, including his own drug use, and was looking for ways out. He probably could have overcome his beginnings if he had been allowed to live. That's probably another reason why they killed him -- not only was he a threat to the (gag) "alpha," he was showing them up by showing signs of sanity and responsibility.

You shouldn't either judge a book by their cover or personalize a persons telling of an event. Empathy is one of the worst things to have as a judge or leader; it can and will cause you to overlook the obvious and make bad judgement calls. Empathy is only good in proper context. People don't seem to realize that virtue is not blanket actions or thoughts but the proper actions or thoughts for a given situation. It is also important to understand that seeing people as either victim or perpetrator is almost always a fools interpretation of a human being. For the majority of the time people are both sometimes simultaneously.

​@@sad.jackfr00tThat is terrible advice. If you get manipulated you share in the blame.

They use middle class and lower workers as the fall guys. Nobody who's actually rich would put their money in a position where random women can easily steal it. That's not their money. Your mom was stealing, that was money those rich people were using, it's not theirs, their money is on a different continent. What your mom was stealing was the chump change these people use to placate normal families. Do you also believe that when a millionaire declares bankruptcy that they have no more money?

She told to get out early. It took them hours of trying to get her to talk. She was only willing to talk once they offered her early release. I think she is selfish and I know she will pay for that for the rest of her life. She didn’t want to bring justice to the boy, she wanted out early

[@VelvetAnnn]

​@kateharless5659 whoa wait do u think she kept making the detectives dig and try to make her talk for a while bc she was possibly waiting for them to offer some type of deal? But she didn't know how to go about it.... 😳

[@MaxJakkz]

She’s a child murderer

[@youngreap1564]

I think she was scared of being labeled a snitch and being retaliated against, at the least she still would have to be relocated. Obviously she felt bad for the kid Bc something similar happened to her brother growing up. If she did not care she wouldn’t have told her sister

[@monroe8143]

@@kateharless5659 I disagree, more than likely she saw the opportunity of putting this behind her. Before there was fear that the rest of her sentence would be shadowed by this

EWU has always proved themselves worthy of extensive recognition and praise for all the dedication and hard work that goes into every single one of their case analyses. May God bless them.

Every time they release a video they literally make their mark as the best true crime on KZbin-for all the reasons you described- plus their consistency, quality and length of features.

Thats exactly right!

It's an attention grabber for sure, but it's hard to tell which ones you've watched and which ones you haven't. The titles really need changed or at the very least, have some identifying information distinguishing one from another.

The saddest part of this entire story is that an inmate and her sister had more love concern and passion for a child they didn’t even know. The inmate who she probably just met Tracy while in jail and became “best JAIL friends “ , had a conscience/morals, and could not just turn the blind eye to what Tracy told her like. Tracy had done to her children’s abuse. I’m so grateful that there are people out there that are still good and even though she’s in jail, doesn’t mean she’s a bad person. In my eyes that inmate is a hero because without her, they probably would’ve never found out about Jeremiah. One day his body would’ve been discovered down the road and they would try to ID him and it possibly could’ve took a long time like it has another cases. And when they finally did, it would come to lightthat he was never reported missing by one single family member not even his own mother. But sad thing is that’s exactly what happened. He wasn’t reported missing by anyone in that family. I’m sorry, but no I have zero sympathy for this mother. You should have called police, and got far away from this man to protect your children. if you are unwilling to do what it takes to leave, then you get those children out of the situation. She knew all this was happening, and did absolutely nothing to protect him. If she would’ve called police when he started abusing them, I promise you he would’ve been locked up. I know she said she was scared. He said he was gonna kill her if she left him but guess what that’s why you called the police that’s why you move. See if you don’t have the money to do it I promise you a single mother running away from abuse of man that is also abusing the children will definitely do something about it. Specially, if you call as soon as it happens. She didn’t do anything because she was out of her mind on ICE, go to jail for warrants or getting new charges. This is so selfish beyond belief. He is a monster, and she knew he was a monster before allowing him into her home. She knew about his charges and still put her Lovelife over her children. She deserves to go to prison for the rest of our life. RIP, Jeremiah I know that you were with love and compassion that you deserved on earth in heaven.I wish the family would have done more to get those babies out of those situations. I don’t just blame the murderer. I blame the entire family. you call police you put a report in to CPS and you keep doing it you take those kids and refuse to give them back when the police come you tell them exactly why. I promise you they ain’t gonna give that mom back her kids without doing a thorough investigation. They would see all them bruises on those kids in the injuries and say hell no. Inmate Justice will get him in prison. They don’t take kindly to child killers same goes with the mom.

@EWUCrimeStorytime I just wanted to reach out, you Sir have the absolute BEST content and most spellbinding stories! And, the way you narrate keeps US coming back for more and sitting on the edge of our seats! I've been a crime buff for many years, but I truly appreciate the fact that you bring your audience stories that are intriguing, albeit twisted; however, they aren't the same ones that are told over and over by other channels on KZbin! So, I just wanted to Thank you! I know your research takes a lot of time and it's very much appreciated by your viewers!! 😊

Always excited to hear a new video has been posted! It's definitely my favorite channel, what with all the hard work and professionalism you all put forward!

A lot of our judges in this country are failing miserably at upholding their oaths to law abiding citizens. So many victims left without justice. It's sickening.

[@GennosukeOD]

This is one of the best true crime videos I've ever seen on KZbin. The storytelling was phenomenal. Other KZbin accounts would have done far less with the same amount of material. Thank you for sharing and RIP to Jeremiah

I can only imagine his sadness. My mom was locked up over the death of my younger sister at the hands of her boyfriend, and I was sent away to foster care. I reached out to her at 13 and she wanted nothing to do with me. She didn’t say it but she showed it. I spent years hoping she’d find a way to love me. She was all I had in my mind. The only connection to who I was. She didn’t love me. It really messes you up when you slowly realize your biological parent doesn’t care about you. Poor kid. I hate that this happened. I’m lucky I lived to see a better life without my mom. I used to wish things were different but now I’m past it. Rest in Peace, sweet boy. I live everyday knowing I was one of the lucky ones, even if I didn’t know it until I was an adult. ❤❤❤

[@caspian90]

RIP Jeremiah. I'm truly sorry for the way you were treated and wish your story could've ended up different.

[@NunyaBizness2.0]

1:08:36 paused to read the coroner's report and it says his left eye was displaced from thr socket, tears were found in the scalp, left cheek and left ear. Also that he had on a diaper and several others were wrapped around his neck and head. That is where i lost it. Thinking of this sweet beautiful young boy crying in agony as he's tortured and mutilated is so heart wrenching. How can people be so evil? He suffered so much and its just so hard to fathom that Jordan nor his own mother helped him. I hope these monsters suffer for many many years.
