The Tragic Case of Robert Peace | Leya Fields + UNSOLVED | True Crime

[@akuasalaam490]

How do you qualify a "big time drug dealer". The book never gave me the impression, that his dad was extremely successful in narcotics. No nice cars, homes, off shore accounts, nothing. He seemed very much typical, street hustler. It was his son, and his brilliance which had the ability to make a fortune (like many others legally do now) off of Marijuana. Rest in Power Brotha Robert

[@nikkib951]

I just watched the movie. He definitely was before his times. Especially all of these dispensaries all over New Jersey now.

[@soliloqueoneLG]

There’s a book about his life I bought couple yrs as a gift. Very interesting… and sad. Amazing how they can pick out dealers blindly but not their murderers and go deaf to??

[@izzyyg1337]

I honestly can’t wait till you blow up & I can say wooow I watched her from the beginning like you my family member who made it ! So proud of you queen ❤️❤️

[@aaroneasley1115]

I actually started watching her last year and was so tired of watching all these different subscription values. So I did cut her as it wasn't personal just was tired of the videos they recommend that I'm like no... But I recently seen her in my feed and I just been smashing all her videos. Good to be back. Perfect journalism

[@lovineveryminuetofit1314]

Weird

[@jennifersykes9003]

I really really love your channel...why? Because it highlights crimes that no one else is talking about! Especially because these crimes happen and revolve around people of OUR NATURE ETHNICITY AND BACKGROUND!

[@ArtemisUnderscoreJ]

What a waste of a brilliant mind. It does sound like he was addicted to the fast money. I highly doubt the typical private school teacher is making $1000 a day. 😕

[@taheracoe5979]

Girl...if you don't change the batteries in that smoke detector!! 🤣🥴

[@DinestyDestiny]

😭😭😭 Man!!!

[@vipyourvibe246]

Why listen to her smoke detector,you'll be on silly ahh,

😂😂😂I kept muting my tv because I thought it was me!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@journeecally1428]

Whewwww Chile it's soooooooooo aggravating. That on top of the clicking drives me ABSOLUTELY INSANE

[@JadaJae21]

I Grew Up on Smith St… The Newark Side…. Down the Street 💁🏾‍♀️ Sir Peace was a genius 💪🏾 The Hood was Hating 😤😤😤😤 Science Teachers in Newark we’re NOT making 1K Per Day…. His Uncle Blew His Cash x Stash Before He could get out of the game. Which Kept Him in ReUp Wealth Mode, which forced him to stay in he game which ultimately killed him.

[@AlwaysReady17]

Super genius...he was my science teacher in 05/06 the best teacher honestly cause he was mad relatable and we lived in the same area...I would see him a lot at Nicos on South Orange Ave after school too...Rest In Peace to a good dude

[@JadaJae21]

Nicos the Spot!!!! I seriously must have ran into this man at some point in life! RIP Sir Peace@@AlwaysReady17

[@denisemoody3268]

I was born and raised in Newark,NJ. this was such a heartbreaking story. I pray that his family will receive Justice.

[@GangstaBoo7]

Oh my gosh, what a handsome guy that was getting his life together! I feel somebody saw and just hated, yes he had his degree, he was making a lot. I wish he had gotten out of that lifestyle tho 😢🕊 May he Rest In Peace

[@madelinesamone7320]

Weed & CBD is a lucrative business. When white ppl sell it no one judges or tells them to do better but when a black person does its an issue? We all know having a 4 year degree or even a masters doesn't secure any type of future. Its plenty of people with multiple degrees trying to make ends meet because of this fucked up economy. Like me, after graduating college he probably didn't find much success in finding a job that would pay enough to make ends meet. So why not turn a skill of his into a way to make money? People put such a stigma on marijuana; its very annoying. Weed isn't just a way for ppl to escape their issues (which is what ppl think that's all it is). Sugar and caffeine are worse drugs lol. Weed helps with pain management and sleep deprivation. Certain sativa strains also help with focus and so much more. I wish we could remove the stigma. But I guess if he lived in California and opened his own dispensary his business ventures wouldn't be looked down upon.

[@ruddydavid]

I read the book, “The Short And Tragic Life Of Robert Peace,” by Jeff Hobbs. A great read!

[@JadaJae21]

East Orange and Newark Two Different Cities 🥵🥵🥵

[@PrettyDimeTheWordsmith]

I like the way you explained his probable reasoning for selling trees, alot of people wouldn't have the judgement to understand that. Also, when you're from the streets, you tend to think trees aren't that bad because it's not a hard drug plus you get less time. That's the mentality quite often 💯

[@karenallen6557]

Funny thing now Rob would’ve been a legit business owner selling medicated MJ

[@Thatgurlchris]

This is a real good story 🙌🏿. Thank you!

[@khatiyahc6832]

I love your content. Quick note though, East Orange and Newark are 2 different cities. I'm from Newark and remember this like it happened yesterday. This was a really sad story.

[@JadaJae21]

I Definitely Cringed at The Statement 😖😖 Newark Is Most Definitely Not E. O 😮‍💨

[@jayman3915]

How did they not solve that case ? I read the book years ago and now I see it’s a movie coming out next month.

[@KaliAnu9]

Hey, gorgeous😊❤️ loving the videos as always I think I’ve watched all of them by now sis!☺️😅😅

[@ashleyc.3495]

With the recent legalization, he could have been getting ALL types of money. It’s sad and hatred is real. Many people do other things on the side to support their finances so I get why he kept it going.

[@kat7939]

My bro said the same thing!

[@passionatebliss4591]

I wonder if Power was based off of his story.

[@BelleStarr46]

I came back to find this video after i watched the Netflix movie on him and i knew i heard this story before and it was this video from you years ago.

[@taylorhicks-wilks288]

The book is called the short and tragic life of Robert peace great book

[@keekee91]

I'm rooting for everybody black period 💪🏿💪🏿💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾😘❤🔥💯💯

[@yourbeautifulnightmare4657]

Periodddd lol that had me cracking up at the end! But im sure he got addicted to living that kind of lifestyle and making that kind of money, especially since he started at such a young age smh maybe with him being so heavy into science he may have been using Marijuana as the key ingredient in his studies/research, just a thought though. he had mad potential and it breaks my heart to see our people having their lives taken over nothing 💔 I pray he gets the justice he so deserves 🙏🏽

[@JadaJae21]

I often recommend this book to my Newark Little Bros, Cuzzos, and Sis!

[@latrese8503]

Love your stories and channel ❤️ Oh and East Orange and Newark are two different cities 😂

[@mka1967]

Im currently reading his life story, and i am totally confused....just Why? This man was super intelligent, and against the odds, he not only goes to Yale, but he excels at Yale in a very difficult major. I just dont understand

[@JordynAshliHats]

Oh NO!!!! That smoke alarm is driving me CRAZY!!!? 😳😩😳😩

[@vatricegeorge]

I remember this story I lived in Newark near St. Benedict. A few years after Robert's death a Rutgers Newark graduate was killed and his roommate an enrolled student was wounded in their off campus Newark apartment. The murdered guy was from the suburbs from a wealthy indian family. It's sad these young educated folks are choosing drugs.

[@franciscomartinez514]

I was born and raised in Newark NJ I grew up in the hood 973 area code all day errrday but so sad listening to this story 😢🙏🏽

[@Truesisters-y7r]

He was the real Tariq St.Patrick!!!

Hi. I Live You Mrs. You always do these segments tasteful. New to the channel. Love your content. Very great for the culture.

[@Mhz.Hartfield]

Thank You

[@1wish1000]

A genuis mind, just a thought he could have found a cure for cancer. His colleague from college wrote the book that inspired the movie , a must watch. Just a sad story.

[@pillowjones]

Just watched the movie. I didn’t know his father was into drug dealing as well as the murders.. With Rob selling drugs, he definitely suffered from a generational curse... it makes you wonder what would’ve happened if he ended up adopted with way better influences in his life. He obviously had the talent. Very sad

[@appleredhead3654]

Oh great presentation 👏🏽 thank you!!!

[@slimyyyylives9723]

That beeping sound not even that loud 🙄🙄 it’s like people are literally TRYING TO FIND SOMETHING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT JUST TO BE COMPLAINING 🥴😒

[@lanikabarnett5398]

I was thinking the same thing 😂

[@wanm9333]

I didn't notice til i read these dam comments like stfu or just dont watch we got this support 😂😜💪🏿✊🏿✊🏿

[@zdrekyria]

So many unsolved cases. Wow,happy i came across this channel

[@AtkinsMichell]

It seems these bro and sis in higher education are being targeted. Keep a 👀 out.

[@lavonnealexander6936]

They are being targeted because they must move out , of their hood. As soon as , I get job and save up I am going to move far away from hood and get another degree.

[@JasmineGuitroz09]

I love your videos and how you address the cases.

I am this year I set a schedule for myself so !! See you soon with new content !!

[@JayTheGreatest895]

Damn, I wish he made better choices and got out of that lifestyle 😢 imagine where he would be now if he had used all that knowledge for good.

[@isso6249]

The Sound Effects and Beeping is annoying and the voice way toooo low.

[@yolandanelson8987]

Smh… young educated brotha gone..

[@essiewinn3966]

I seen His Movie 🍿🎥 about 2 months ago very sad he Died Like That.

[@soloantonetty1317]

I had to pause the video 3 times cause I heard beeping 🤦🏾‍♀️thought it was in my house

[@jaysonfigueroa6075]

I met him at a very young age since my mother worked at St. Benedict’s prep in Newark. Unfortunately it was not pleasant. Won't go into specifics but she asked a harmless question and he reacted very rudely, even with me there. Still Read the book about him and It was fantastic.

[@torronbrown7063]

May you please make a video on the tragic death of robin Williams and Chester Bennington they both died by suicide

[@kat7939]

Boy bye!!!

[@gildaaugustus8864]

East Orange in Newark are two different places

[@kaykepop4084]

Anyone else hear a distant beeping sound while watching this video 😕? Really wanted to hear about this case but I could not finish watching because it became too annoying after a while 😥.

[@slimyyyylives9723]

You can barley hear that … you just trying to find something to complain about 🙄

[@kaykepop4084]

@@slimyyyylives9723 I guess the same way you felt the need to complain about my comment. So I guess we're even on just looking for something to complain about✌.

[@kaykepop4084]

@@slimyyyylives9723 and just for your information people hear audio differently depending on their devices and for some reason on my laptop the beeping is really loud, even after I turn the volume down. It was so loud FOR ME that my husband thought it was one of our smoke detectors. So no, I'm not just looking for something to complain about. I asked if anyone else experienced it to see if indeed it was my device or the video and to point out it was a problem because some KZbinrs will remake videos with loud noises or audio problems. So stop trying to make some unnecessary drama and acting like I'm hating on her because it's nothing like that.

Great content. Just one solution could help you out. Can you please learn how to write scripts for your videos though. Your points will sound more concise.

Watching the movie now. It's really good and so sad that such a talented and gifted man died. Who knows he could have been the 1 to find a cure for cancer.. Only God knows. May He rest in peace😢❤❤

[@454lin]

I don’t understand how he graduated from Yale University and was so social and yet according to the book he became a baggage handler

[@ohYeaMay]

🤣😭 why you put that clip at 01:40 ..

[@belizegal29]

Robert had amazing potential. Could you imagine. He could have done amazing as a Biochemist in this growing marijuana market. This is so sad. 🥲🥲🙏🏾

Dang yo! I know someone who went to school with him and said that to! Smh I can’t right now!😢

Sound like the cops did it. Because why is this a cold case

[@21lamy21]

I don’t understand why he worked for continental airlines in the ramp. We used to work together.

Ugh that beeping and clicking sound is SOOOOO ANNOYING!!!!!!

[@Godisgreat-b4e]

Rip my condolence to his family and friends ❤️

[@Deniseessex222]

$1000 a day?!?! That’s likely why he kept going. He was about to be billionaire status and change his family tree. Since legalization of marijuana is happening, it’s hard not to feel like police or fbi weren’t aware of him selling and staged it like the cartel murdered him (not that the cartel isn’t capable 👀). But soons you said he created his own strand 😧 I knew they would colonize it. I wonder if his strand is being sold legally…?🤔

[@lovineveryminuetofit1314]

I feel sorry for the dad being wrongly convicted. But the bottom line is they're both criminals. The son was no saint! Typical, tho. The most unbelievable thing is this kid who made it thru the obstacles, and had the brightest mind Yale has seen, but he chose to illegal stupid things to make money. Not as bright as one first thought. I mean seriously, of all the things he could have done, he chose the thug option.

[@carlenefrancis343]

The movie was good, I knew that jealous snitch kid was gone be the end of him, u can have a brilliant plan but it’s always a dummy ready to ruin it for you & when his friend said,”the only way u can handle that problem is what u got in your hand” But Rob wasn’t a killer & unfortunately that rat got em killed. I wish he’d listen to his Yale friends his girlfriend & his Moms. I wish his Dad would’ve told his son to live his life cause his other friends told him their Dad wouldn’t allow em to risk their futures for him
