The Most TWISTED Case You've Ever Heard | Documentary

In today's true crime documentary, we're covering the case of Chris Harper-Mercer and analyzing it from an educational psychological perspective.

[@ChristinaTodd1970]

I live 45 minutes away and the most awesome thing that the media did was not broadcast his name. They refused to give the shooter any validity.

[@lowry1988]

That's awesome. I am definitely a news type of person and always follow what's going on. And I've never heard of his name until I watched this.

[@makinnewcounts6676]

The media died with JFK, what we have now is deep state psychological ops. Most awesome propaganda ever made. Refusing to name him was a joke to gain your trust.

Fun Fact - His manifesto features a giant image of Gucci Mane

[@ask_why000]

Went to a class this summer: They say huddling in a corner is a bad idea. That just makes one an easy target. They're saying don't stand together and if the shooter enters your space to move or throw something at them: Because its harder to strike a moving target and because they are not expecting people to fight back... so when a laptop is flying that their head it might break their stride and give folks time to flee or counter attack.

[@frostbite3820]

I get that in the heat of the moment everything is different and that it's all about self preservation as a natural instinct and that they were all young and inexperienced but when a shooter starts executing people single file I would hope they someone in the group would realize a mob attack is the only hope. The one kid did say that but he didn't think anyone else would do it to. You've just got to try man and all you can do is hope others pick up on the plan. Someone is likely to get shot but that's better than everyone getting shot and having the shooter get to choose where on top of it too. Clock really is ticking in a situation like that. Each person he executes drops the chance of you surviving significantly

[@TheDiepzone]

My employer put us in training/awareness for these type of shooting and it's basically 3 simple rules to follow; run, hide or fight 1. Run if you can 2. Hide and barricade 3. Fight, look for weapon and use it They told us about Virginia tech and showed the survival rate of a classroom that barricaded vs the one that was not vs the one where the teacher was holding the door so students could escape. The barricaded only had injuries if I'm not mistaken. The one with heroic teacher had 3 deaths (including the teacher sadly) and the last classroom almost everyone died if not everyone. This is from memory so sorry if information is incorrect but the gist is the same. Doing something increases your chances for survival.

[@enviousgaming3250]

​@@frostbite3820I agree entirely My history teacher taught my class that if we ever had a shooter trying to get in he would be in front of the door with a shotput ball ready for throwing and have the students climb as high as they could in stacked up desks with something to throw at the gunman if it ever came to it Luckily that situation never happened but it stuck with me to remember if I am ever in a shooter situation if there is no way we could escape

[@personalspace6270]

I have to say that it's sad that you have to live with idea you can be shot because it's a big possibility and that people keep defending guns to be available so easily.

[@MrRyan-wu4jx]

I think part of the operators suggestion is because cops will be there shortly and the more people running around frantically there are, the more challenging it’s going to be to make sense of it all.

[@letolethe3344]

Laurel Harper, his mother, kept buying her son guns no matter how disturbed and rageful he became. Laurel bought him most of the guns used in the shooting. This is remarkably close to the story of Adam Lanza and his mother; he shot the babies at Sandy Hook and his mother "spoiled" him with guns while bemoaning his being violent, isolated, and angry.

[@Strype13]

Putting aside how utterly tragic these events are for a second, I just want to point out how refreshing it is to hear a dispatcher who is extremely good at both calming callers/victims down as well as gathering crucial information for law enforcement. I'm sick and tired of hearing 911 calls where the dispatcher does a piss poor job -- by either not knowing the proper information to gather, or by having an obnoxious attitude and treating the caller as if they're supposed to act a certain way when they're literally in fear of losing their lives. That shit drives me crazy. So, props to this awesome dispatcher as well as her law enforcement squad for handling this situation about as well as possible in such a chaotic scenario. Also, my sincere condolences to all of the victims and their loved ones.

[@emiliapapini4861]

the 911 operators did an incredible job, i've heard too many calls where operators were rude or dismissive when distressed callers weren't clear. they kept their composure despite being inundated with calls under immense pressure.

[@febrieze]

this! and dispatchers seemed genuinely appreciative of all the help that they could get too, especially with the tips that were coming in. it was very bittersweet how their community and people outside of their community came in and contributed with any information that they felt was important instead of just sitting on those gut feelings. something about this case was particularly heartbreaking, i remember it being the beginning of my senior year and there were like six or seven mass shootings by that first day of august and i was terrified of if it would happen in our school next every single day of that year. even now as an adult going back to community college im scared of what ppl could do bc of these cases, i just wish these things would stop. gun violence just keeps growing 😮‍💨

[@mmedusamoonn]

Yes I totally agree. These operators were outstanding and very patient polite and helpful as they possibly could be. They had to be extremely stressed and had so many calls and reports flooding them, some of which people who they talked to were hearing the gun shots as they were talking on the phone with the operator. I would have been a wreck. They really were wonderful.

[@CodeeXD]

Yeah but I get it in a way. Like tell them where tf the shooter is at so they can send help to the correct place.

[@febrieze]

@CodeeXD in a perfect world. except high anxiety - high stress situations make it difficult to properly get an understanding of where exactly he could've been going to next since many couldn't get proper visuals bc they were hiding and like, yk.. trying to not get hurt or meet a worse fate. multiple calls end up being a puzzle for them to pinpoint and put the pieces together, they've only got so much to work with but these dispatchers did great for the situation

[@febrieze]

@mmedusamoonn god, especially in such a small community, too! i couldn't imagine what was going through their heads, and if they themselves had family or friends that could've been out there themselves. i used to want to be a dispatcher when i was in high school and whatnot, but after watching true crime and everything for so long i decided there was no possible way i could handle the mental load of it, especially living in a smaller town myself (i didn't want to see all the bad in my community tbh). i have sooo much respect for dispatchers, these ones especially, they don't get enough recognition for what they do fr

[@scottyRAZERrobz]

That’s not true, American kids are built different to others. They are exposed to much greater extremes in all areas of life, including trauma and don’t perceive things with as strong emotions as other kids would. A school shooting is scary but it doesn’t traumatise American kids like it would others because they have a developed resilience due to the society they live in. Dr Wilkinson did an interesting study on it after the Ocala shooting where the shooter was in their school and kids were laughing and joking around and videoing themselves for their social media accounts.

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@nemiw4429 Your lack of empathy and inability to understand human emotion truly baffles me. Yes, humanity has committed many atrocities including genocide, murder, wars, etc, and it is an unfortunately large part of our history, but these are NOT reasons to excuse people of their actions when they mindlessly kill innocents. Using humanity’s past as an excuse for the lack of emotion people have nowadays is disgusting, people like you who use excuses to downplay these killer’s massacres are part of the problem. Especially when you say obnoxious things like, “It’s really not that emotional,” that shows just how disconnected and dumb you are to society, as well as how much empathy you lack for these victims and their families. Not to mention it truly shows your mindset when you care more about a strangers gender identity than you do about the countless lives killed in this massacre. Truly you are a disgusting, immature individual who only cares for yourself. You should get some serious help and sort out your life before you go talking nonsense on the internet.

The shock and trauma alone of what she described would be hard for anyone to come back from let alone talk about it so honestly and in detail. those poor children and staff and emergency workers that day. I'm a UK resident, shouldn't they by now have airport style security on every single school of every age? The cost would be high but the price of it not being in place for every single entry point of every single school in the US is beyond money and time, its peoples lives. While guns are legal the people protecting full stop. It can be avoided or at least stopped/contained at the college entrances. So sad what a waste of lives by a waste of space. Mental health is not to blame, you can't blame someone's unpredictability because you have no control or specific warning signs to that but you can prevent it at the first point of entry to every school. Stagger the kids going thru the gates, give groups 5 minute intervals, start some in first lesson an hour later and they stay an hour later at the end of the day. Sorry probably all been said but why isn't it happening? Where is the action plan that will stop this from happening.

I used to read the Oregonian all the time when I was in Job Corp back in the early 80s, The Job Corp center I was at was in Idaho, and I knew there were a lot of people there from Oregon, and Washington as well, but I could never understand how the Oregonian ended up in the dorm room all the time, out in the television and living area, I always assumed that maybe the parents of some of the kids there were sending them the paper to keep them caught up on local stuff. I personally have never even been to Oregon, the paper was interesting though, you have to remember we had to make our own fun back then, no phones. 😆

There were students who were veterans who acted as human shields against this guy or more would have been lost. The shooter came here from California and was not a member of the community before that summer.

Mass shooters don’t topically pick targets that might be armed and can shoot back. It was a huge mistake by college administration to make it a gun free zone when they did. Thankfully, it’s no longer a soft target and a gun zone again.

Very harrowing to either be a student or the dispatcher, knowing the guy is either in the same room or next room over, yet there is nothing that can be done in that immediate time to save anyone.

[@Trouble-Clef]

I don’t think this case is any more twisted than any other. He was just another narcissist with an antisocial personality, who didn’t fit in. But instead of joining groups of young people with similar interests, joining a church (not my thing but it may have helped him), or reaching out to family or a councillor he chose instead to harbour resentment and hatred. They coddle and nurture that resentment until it turns completely black, and then they start formulating their plan. If they can’t get the attention every narcissist desires by doing positive, then they’ll get it by doing negative. And they do. They kill who and what they covet. Other people who to them seemingly have everything they ever wanted. Friends, popularity, a partner, happiness, a job, and in this case, faith. I think in a sense they’re killing that part of themselves that wants and needs those same things, but for whatever reason hadn’t been able to achieve them. And whether they live or die they’ve still committed an emotional suicide. It’s sad for the victims that people like this don’t put in the same effort to address their social awkwardness as they do in planning the murders of innocent people. Or that they don’t just kill themselves. Not that I’m advocating that as a solution, just simply that if they’re going to kill why can’t they limit the death toll to just one: themselves. But for that to happen they might have to actually admit that there’s something wrong with them, instead of there being something wrong with everybody else. But a narcissist will NEVER see it that way, or they wouldn’t be a narcissist.

Doesn't help that his mother, Laurel, continued to buy him firearms until he essentially collected an entire arsenal... all while knowing he was diagnosed mentally ill and was no longer taking his medication.
