The Murderous Rampage Of A Man That Snapped | World’s Most Evil Killers | Real Crime

[@fasteddie4107]

I find it disingenuous that people like Yardley recognize how fragile life is but it’s also people like Yardley who disarmed their fellow citizens and their ability to protect themselves. These are the same people who began the moral erosion in the UK by eliminating the death penalty.

[@theflowerwhosavedtheuniver5658]

I remember sitting in work with my colleague when this came on the news. Her daughter lived in Whitehaven at the time and we were sitting across the Irish Sea in Belfast. She rang all day but couldn't get an answer and of course every thought was going through her mind. Eventually got her son-in-law hours later who let her know that Justine was in hospital as she had a miscarriage. That was the longest day ever, so God help the families of those who died and those who were injured.

"he bailed himself out" (killing himself): That's an outsider's point of view, I doubt very much that he saw/felt it that way.

Britain’s last mass shooting as of November 2022. The USA has shootings like this all the time. Gun control works in Britain. It wouldn’t work in the USA where the right to bare arms is guaranteed under the second amendment. Firearms are far easier to buy, carry and shoot in the USA. I’m a Brit and used to shoot in the 80s, I’m not anti gun, but I accept most Brits want tight gun laws. Americans would never accept our laws and we wouldn’t accept theirs. Finally, Britain had 0.04 deaths per 100,000 and the USA had 3.96 per 100,000 in 2019.

[@dazediss6629]

Don’t listen to Rewcastles family. It was absolutely not tit for tat. Slashing another taxi drivers tyres is not tit for tat, and publicly bullying someone is not ok. He certainly didn’t deserve to meet his end the way that it happened, but for his family to say “Darren wasn’t a bully”, then go on to describe a stereotypical bully, is ridiculous. I get that they’re his family & they love him, miss him & want him to be seen in the best light. But this is slam dunk institutionalised bullying, & he could well have been charged for manslaughter had things panned out differently. Any taxi driver that would even consider fucking around with the safety of another persons cab is a sorry excuse of a human being.

Bullied in school . Screamed at all the time by my drunk parent. Guilt tripped constantly. Blackmailed by her and my other family member. Cheated on. Lost someone I dearly lived to suicide. Lost my dad as an infant. Lost my mom at 7. Allowed to go wild as a teen. Almost murdered. Lost a friend in a horrible car wreck at 14. Had many traumas and abuses through my 20s. Deserted in my 30s by my so called best friend when I needed her most. Went through anxiety and panic attacks . Still have them. Have ptsd over several things. Some happened in my 30s. Some in my 40s. And early 50s. I have never, no matter how badly I was hurt or used or neglected or traumatized or was a victim of crime. I still have not shot anyone. No desire to.

Didn't Derrick Bird run out of ammunition ? How was he able to shoot himself with no ammo ? did he put an unlimited ammo cheat in or something ?

[@dannyflint5746]

He obviously didnt run out of anmo

[@skadiwarrior2053]

@@dannyflint5746 He used his rifle to kill himself after using up ammo from the shot gun. Perhaps he'd got rid of the rage by then and decided to end it.

[@Monkeys-10]

In such cases very often the perpetrator will keep one bullet for himself. The decision to kill themselves is already made before they begin. So he was most probably out of bullets... aside from that last one, to liberate him from having been brought back to reality and facing the consequences.

[@aldorfc7287]

Remember this as it was weeks before the raoul moat saga, weird that Derrick bird never gets that much attention than raoul moat? Summer 20210

[@nukeman360]

not a fan of the ringing in the ears in certain scenes. I know its to build suspense but its terribly annoying

[@Rob-ws2kh]

I agree. 12 ppl getting shot to death doesn’t require any dramatic music. So tacky some shows now.

[@anthonylabrum4095]

I remember when this happened. Just out of the blue.

I remember that fateful day. I was meant to go to Cleator Moor that day but my train was cancelled (luckily)

"This is Cumbria, you're not expecting this kind of thing to happen in this part of the world"? Hello, really? Researchers must have been asleep preparing for this episode.

[@heatherlawson3437]

Exactly, and also, there are lots of roads you can choose to drive up to Seascale, Eskdale, any of the places Derek drove to.

[@jakethemuss5678]

He left school and started dating a woman 5 years younger than him, even if he stayed at school until he was 18 she would have been 13 🤔

[@scoundrel1680]

if those initial cops were armed, this would've stopped then and there, no further incident. they "quite wisely" let him go smh, unarmed cops aren't effective cops. what a needless loss of life.

[@unknownuser6757]

And now he gets to live in Hell indefinitely

[@aprilmiller5121]

This is so sad and for no reason at all for these killings. 😢

[@cdmray]

The documentary started off by revealing how many he killed and that he killed himself at the end. Talk about spoilers.

Everyone has a bad day. Doesn't make you special.

How did I miss this one? I’ve never heard of it?

[@nospoon4799]

Well now you can hear the official explanation.

[@peterd788]

I was in hospital in a coma for a few days when this happened and when a week after I got out someone referred to this and explained what happened I was shocked.

So the man is considered "most evil" because bad things kept happening to him and he snapped? The poor guy just needed a little help.

[@user-fq7ii3ub4m]

bad things happen to everyone

[@spiritthingw]

BS lots of people have horrid things happen to them, they don't go commit murder!!

[@christinesbetterknitting4533]

@@spiritthingw But the vast majority of killers had bad childhoods. It is a place to start the reduction in spree killers.

[@spiritthingw]

He felt sorry for himself, that's it, he's a killer thats it! Should have arrested him for his earlier crimes, people would still be alive, he was a coward.

[@pjzebo]

@@spiritthingw you just don't know you haven't walked in his shoes or lived his life

[@seedhillbruisermusic7939]

these events in the UK, so incredibly rare, but Hungerford, this in Cumbria, Raoul Moat and the Dunblane Massacre, every time the murderer has killed themselves. If only they could've been taken alive we might begin to understand why. But they took the cowards way out so we'll never know what was going on in their minds.

[@hmac163]

Minor trauma? You dont need to be a Vet to have PTSD. You only need to have witnessed or experienced an event that made you fear for your life or someone else’s, made you experience terror, or have chronic toxic stress for a lengthy time. Maybe the ICD-10 is different than the DSM-V, but to say something wasn’t serious enough to lead to PTSD is incorrect. I’m not a Dr., but I question this opinion.

[@speedy692]

I wish these shows would stop using 3 or 4 different psychologist's etc who just say the same thing, the killer blames everyone for everything that's happened to them.

[@tonyhill8300]

Look at Richard D Halls take on this

[@christinajackson6309]

Y’all are ridiculous sticking up for a crazy person. People being mean to him is no excuse to go on a killing rampage. That excuse makes even less sense when it’s noted that he killed random people he didn’t know either.
