That's one articulate and mature 10 year old.
That's what happens with a good upbringing and an emphasis on education.
with the deputy she 'normalized' by feeding her animals.
Trauma will make you grow up very quickly.
@@caseycatnope! She was brought up well! Fresh trauma doesn’t give the person super powers, her parents are the ones to be thanked for her caring herself so well. Don’t minimize it!
maybe she needs to live abroad? to forget the trauma. A country which is simple and peaceful
Killing children, a pet and a pregnant woman... while they are asleep defenceless. That's special kind of evil. Best wishes to Robin!
Then they have the nerve to try and justify his evil using his upbringing. If most people that were mistreated or abused would go on crime sprees, humans would be extinct. So horrific for the poor victim.😢
You forgot to mension the dog.
@@KM-un8ojthey already take rape seriously, it's juts unfortunately, the majority of rape claims are false. If you want them to be taken seriously, tell the ppl who keep lying and it to stop and it will be taken even more seriously.
@@Ibalistic_hedge Every word of this comment is a lie from the pits of hell
@@Ibalistic_hedgeno, most rapes aren't even reported and most claims are true and ignored. It is horrible that men don't take rape seriously.
It warms my heart how the policemen who came to her aid that day have stayed in her life and looked out for her. ❤
I love how they embrace the big brother role to her. Big brothers with big guns. ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Robin is so strong. I was choking back tears listening to her on the 911 call. Even at 10 yrs old, she was more composed and articulate than me at almost 40. Poor girl lost her entire family, her whole life in an instant. I truly can't imagine. The officer who stayed by her side and fed her animals with her is an absolute gem. He is def in the right line of work. If anyone deserves to be sentenced to death, it's Levi King.
So true and what's more frightening us that god has written everyone of us deserve hell because we all have sinned against our creator all have broken the commandments he said there isn't one that's good no not 1 gods words
Yes you are right and what most people do not understand is that Jesus died for all of us! Our sins can all bee forgiven if we ask Jesus to forgive us and açcept him as our personal savior! No matter what we have done or who we are!
I believe that people need to go to jail for what they have done!
I was bawling. 😢❤❤❤
Sentenced to 14y but served less than 3...smh...thank u justice system for effing it up
Ummmm...what
@@missssophisicated6742 I think they're talking about Levi's previous sentence before he committed the murders. He was charged for something else and sentenced to 14 years, but released super early to a halfway house and went on the run.
Texas is a Red Trump State
Enough said 🤬
Exactly. Setting fires is a very red flag for future violent tendencies. Wake up!!
@@missssophisicated6742 what don't you understand? I think the comment is very clear.🙄
That deputy is serving his calling. What a great, caring public servant.
Most are
And what beautiful eyes he has. Two different colors.
True dat
@@davidwoermansroof that’s a statement now
@@dingerboi4 a true one the problem is the media won't focus on them because doom and gloom sells and gets more clicks and views and people in fear are easier to control and manipulate none of the frauditors show the ones that don't violate their rights because they'd lose views not be able to beg for money for "legal fees" and crap if they did if they were winnig all these lawsuits they claim to they wouldn't need to beg for money there's one my sis watches who shows every interaction he has over 80 percent are good experiences the cop tells whoever called he's doing nothing wrong most of the time he just gets told you know your boundaries I don't need to tell you anything or some form of that and he travels the country hitting small towns and big cities
This may be the most heartwrenching 48 Hours episode I've ever seen.
I have never cried so hard.
I was listening while doing chores and had earlier been aggravated about nonsense and,,wow, I was choking back sobs through the entire episode...really put my thoughts back on the right path! Bless her❤!! This young lady deserves unbounded happiness!
I have just finished watching and still have tears. Better go vacuum to take it out of my mind. Beautiful strong woman ❤❤❤❤😢❤❤❤❤❤
My hubby had a horrible life growing up mom died young father didn't want him in and out of foster homes. He had knives thrown at him. I can tell you he is a great man. He is a great father. He helps anyone out. People make their life what they want it to be
It's nature and nurture. If someone is a psychopath or a budding sociopath or other kinds of mental illness, abuse turns them the wrong way. The ONLY way to stop this is to stop child abuse and to have good mental health services, education and support for families and community
I want to say something… but I can’t find words. I wish you peace and serenity.
Words fail when sadness prevails.
I'm struggling to find words as well
It took me a moment as well. This was by far the hardest case I've ever heard.
I've never wanted to give someone a hug so bad in my life.😭 Robin you're a very strong woman and you deserve happiness sweetheart. Don't forget that.
Such a sweet kid, who grew up into a strong woman. Her brother was so handsome, as well. ❤
She is going to find it, of that I am sure! Your comment shows what a big heart you have.
❤❤❤
watch the Nickolodeon abuse special.....as a Dad wanted to reach through the screen and hug Drake Bell. He is so hurt and so many let him down - you can see it in his eyes and affect
Why doesn't the justice system learn that these people early released just repeat? Over and over? I don't get it. Innocent people killed over and over and the justice system just doesn't care. I am sick of it.
The judge that released him from prison is Responsible for all these murders.
No he is not. Levi is responsible
Yes the judge is equally guilty.
He definitely has blood on his hands
@@JamesJones-yj8kuthe judge has no say on early release that's the parole boards doing
@@davidwoermansrthe parole board is just a recommendation to release him early but the judge has to sign off on it
Robin, I used to constantly bounce my legs. I used to zone out. I used to have my heart beat out of my chest when I thought about or talked about my trauma. I used to not trust. What changed? I finally was in a place in my life where I felt safe enough emotionally that I could go to "Trauma Counseling". Trauma Counseling is very different from regular counseling or psychiatry. My trauma counselor was Dr. Sgt. Denny Conroy, St Paul, MN. He was both a police officer and a trained trauma counselor. I spent 4 years bit by bit, as I felt strength to do it, talking about what happened; healing bit by bit as I talked it out of me. Healing with a safe person who got me. All of those symptoms of trauma are gone now. It is extremely painful and you have to feel ready emotionally to tackle trauma counseling, but it is worth it! I hate people telling me I am a survivor. I did survive but I am so much more than just a survivor. God bless, Robin.
Thank you for this comment. I’m glad you’re doing well!
❤
Amen
I was shot 7 times by a jealous bf, obviously survived, he didn't. I didn't realise that I had PTSD until by accident I was sent to a great psy many years later, who was experienced in trauma counseling. It was the best thing I did. I went on to be an alpinist, trekker, successful in my work - just didn't have kids for obvious reasons but am now a happy mom and Granny to an African family. God bless Robin - she's a very strong young lady and kudos to the police who were there for her.
Your comment was sooo insightful!! I’m glad she has the support system she has in her life!! I hope your message gets to her somehow, someway. She said she only trusts law enforcement, perhaps she could get in contact with who helped you or someone retired in her circle could be there with her to walk through it. It’s unfortunate that she’s not ready to face the pain of the trauma yet, because it’s painful to see her struggle as you observed. Because once she does, and she gets some relief, a little healing, and some tools, I can really see her helping children all over the world if she wants. She could be driven to a career in law enforcement, if she so chooses. My greatest hope for her is healing. Because, I’d love for her to be set free from the pain, so she can move forward, help others and do exactly what that officer said he wants to live to see!!!
If she hasn’t already, I think Robin would be a great public speaker. A lot of trauma survivors would be inspired by her.
I am a public speaker and I agree with you a thousand percent. And I would add not only for trauma survivors but for every single person on Earth. She is an amazing young woman, very articulate and inspiring. I think that might just be the purpose she is looking for
Maybe so, but also: perhaps we are speculating what we think she should do; perhaps forgetting she has an inner personal life that she has a right to keep private. I hope we aren't trying to push our own opinions on what she might be good at. All well and good, but remember...her life is her own.
Robin could help so many people. A person has to experience something before they can truly help others aka been there.
That man killed six people and two were children for no reason and admitted it. Death penalty is a no brainer.
(The baby if you missed it.)
Agreed
not when it's a handsome white man.
@@kahledblackman318 are you trying to come onto the guy? Seems like a black thing to do
@@kahledblackman318That’s just your fragility talking 🥴

@@stumack9755haha! That's exactly what I thought!

Agreed!
Agreed!
I'm tired of people using excuses as to why they do what they do.
I personally was molested from age 3 to 9
Was mentally,physically, and emotionally tortured by someone I called my dad. I didn't learn until later the same had happened to him. I broke the cycle, for this I live in peace and will also die with peace in my heart for not continuing that fear of him waking me up at 1 in the morning.
This makes me a very harsh person, and very easy to anger.
Somehow I have chosen to use that for good.
I choose to be kind and caring and wait for the day of my calling whenever someone is in distress I'll be there for anyone.
Maybe that's why when I was in middle and high school if I ever noticed someone being bullied.
Game time
Peace and love to all. Cautious of your surroundings.
And in case know one has said it to you today.. your beautiful and an inspiration. ❤
Love, peace and light to you. ❤
So sad what happened to you. I hope you’re doing much better these days.
I learned forgiveness because I’m aware that those who violated me didn’t have the same tools nor knowledge that I had to gain in order to stop the cycle.
So proud of you and glad you made it! 🩷
Well, what happens to you as a child or juvenile really sticks with you your entire life. That cant be an excuse, but the majority of killers had made those experiences before committing murders. It is definitely a reason for their actions and I think people like you that manage to be a good person after experiencing something so terrible should be extremely proud of themselves.
"I've told people and I've told people and it just crushes me every time".......my god 😭 Her maturity likely saved her life but also made her super aware of the gravity of what happened.
I didnt know about this case. This is one of the example of the saddest earth nature incidents. The guy was born as schizophrenic and on top of that he was in unfortunate environment and ended up randomly killing innocent families for no motive. and that's why jours didn't give him a death sentence. (if other countries most likely given him a death sentence easily). The girl was raised by religious community/family so she's coping this tragedy in her way and the law enforcement officers are being her psychiatrist and that's working for all of them so far. I really wish her the best.
Same age as my daughter. Almost made me cry. I can’t imagine her strength
@@Mansikkacake we are the only free country that has the death penalty mostly only Muslim countries and of course China
@@georgannwayne492Korea the Philippines Japan and Russia all execute certain criminals I'm sure there's more in South America and Africa depending on the region
@@georgannwayne492 im from Japan and we have death penalty and we are not religious so the case like this would definitely give this guy death penalty cause no much compassion for mental illness murderers.
and actually I just wikied and surprised most of EU countries, EU, Australia, new zealand and even Canada abolished death penalty which I didnt know. good to know.
Poor girl. She lost her whole family, and even her dog, in an instant. I can't even imagine the horror, the trauma.
OK, no more pity party. Robin, you go girl!
She says she doesn’t need counseling. I beg to differ. She lives in a state of fear and anxiety. She afraid empty houses and the dark. That I not reasonable for a 22 year old woman. She desperately needs professional help to move beyond these fears. I hope the people close to her eventually convince her to go someplace with a compassionate therapist to help her process the grief. She doesn’t have to be Superman. Everyone needs help sometimes.
@@jonathanstephens7015It would take a special kind of therapist to help Robin. Unfortunately, many therapists use the same old overused approach with clients. That might be helpful to someone who just wants to talk but isn't helpful for those who are ready for tools to use in their daily life.
@@jonathanstephens7015Eh, I think it's completely natural to feel that way in her situation. There's no way to "process" some things. Life can be a nightmare for a lot of humans and it's okay to feel scared. Life is scary in a lot of ways. No amount of counseling removes reality.
That’s not true. Solid therapy can improve one’s mental outlook. Trauma manifests in humans with startlingly similar outcomes. These are treatable and the processes have helped countless people overcome their trauma. Sure, you are correct that life is sometimes scary. That’s unavoidable and worse for some people. Having your family annihilated in front of you is as bad as it gets. That should not be a life sentence for this young woman. She can and hopefully will learn some coping skills to overcome all that burdens her. The fact that she so vehemently declares she doesn’t need therapy is a great indicator that she likely does. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if she someday engages in self destructive behaviors if she doesn’t confront her darkest emotions. Either way, I wish her well and hope her life is long and prosperous.
@@jonathanstephens7015 I wholeheartedly agree. I'm hoping she'll reconsider as she gets older. When I turned 29 I was forced to finally seek therapy after years of refusal.
I've watched so many 48 Hours episodes, but this one made me cry, especially when I hear Robin's words as a child on the 911 call to the present day. She is truly special and I hope she finds ever-lasting peace and happiness.
I’m 41 years old, I thought I’d been through a lot, and it’s hard not to look back and feel hard done by sometimes. Jesus, you grabbed me by the back of my collar and shamed me for sometimes feeling sorry for myself. Your mother was clearly one hell of a woman, to raise you until 10 to be so articulate and such a warrior. You made me smile in such a defiant way at all the bad in the world. A ten year old managed to win against such evil and you will achieve all you want and desire. You’re an inspiration young lady and the police officers who helped you are heaven sent.
I know her mom is so proud she did a great job raising robin❤🙏🏽
What about the step dad.
We need to have a different system for crimes against children. The terror in that innocent baby's voice 😞
I agree, a much harsher system because only someone with no conscience or decency could do that.
BTW, maybe reconsider infantalising the young girl, she wasn't a baby. She was 10 and terribly brave❤
Once the go to prison they get special treatment, trust me. I’ve seen it. Even some of the meanest men you can imagine have children and a soft spot for them.
@@nixm9093 Maybe consider the use of the term 'baby' in this context is a colloquialism and requires no correction. No-one is mistaking a ten year old child for a literal baby, nor is anyone implying it.
@@jessicataylor7174 🙌🏻
i remember when i was a kid like her, our store (connected to our house where we sleep) had been robbed, thank god that nobody was hurt because my eldest sister have noticed a flashlight, she crawled and woke up my dad. My papa thrown empty bottle to him(thief), got hurt and ran. He has no gun during that incident which we were thank of but the taken money from the shop was taken with him. It happened 3am when everybody was asleep. I think the thief (knows us) because he knows where to go around the house.
Can't help my tears.... I adore these law enforcers who treated Robin like their baby sister. God bless your hearts men & may the Good Lord always gives You His guidance, protection & favor in Jesus' most powerful name!! 🙌🙌
A lot of people grow up in bad environments that don't grow up to be murderers.
Most of us never become murderers!
I get so tired of these people besmirching the poor.
Exactly. I am one
Exactly. I am one
Exactly. I am one
7 min in and this is by far the most heartbreaking episode I’ve ever seen. Hearing her brings tears to my eyes. That poor family and that gorgeous little girl 😢
This girls perspective on life is incredible. She’s a real inspiration!
"I don't know what my purpose is, but it's going to be great when it comes." - YOU'RE ALREADY LIVING IT OUT, sweetheart! What an incredible human being she is. ❤
Absolutely, I second that! Just being herself, she is enough.
Exactly! She is already serving her purpose. Many blessings to you, Robin. You have certainly inspired me.
Robin, if you're reading this, you are a beautiful soul. I'm so very sorry for what you went through and am so impressed by your strength.
Exceptionally bright and wise woman, Robin is. All the best to her.
She looks like her mother. I couldn't stop crying since hearing her 911 call. You are a brave woman Robin. R.I.P for all those who lost their lives. May God protect you and give you the happiness and comfort you deserve. You will be in my prayers ❤
She looks nothing like her mother
@joyceanthony-huff2914 She actually does. They showed a picture of them both and I thought the same thing. That she looked so much like her.
The mother looks like a young dark haired Jessica Lange to me.
Me either , the whole time from the start 😢
Robin looks a lot like her mother...God be with her always. 🙏
As a parent of a child with bipolar disorder, I get so enraged when people use it as an excuse for why they committed a violent crime. This guy is a psychopath. He had obvious signs of the dark triad in his childhood. Don’t put a common mental health issue as a reason for a lesser sentence. I’m not saying someone with bipolar disorder can’t be violent, but if they are, they tend to be violent by nature.
Ugh i just love police officers like this. They genuinely wanted to protect this little girl. She is almost exactly my age, and I cannot even imagine living through something like this.
I can't imagine going through what she went through,i don't think i would have survived. What a strong woman she is. May the Lord give her strength to live on😢
I would prefer that the Lord stop her family from being massacred. She IS strong, she doesn't need a myth to help there.
@@daxmcanearwhy does the Lord scare u. Because you’re scared of the truth.
@@kristinfaul2883 if one is scared of Zeus or the Tooth fairy. As much as those myths are "true".
@@daxmcanear
Ask yourself what you're trying to accomplish, and if that will bring you happiness.
@@Cautionary_Tale_Harris Ok. Yes. If there is a god, he failed. He seems to do that a lot.
This young lady has been through so much, I hope she has found peace and happiness
I lost my mother when I was 43. It took 25 years before I could cry. I can understand Robin in some small measure. I was told I was denying my mom died. Could be Rubin is trying denial too. I totally understand if she is, even unconsciously. God bless and comfort her in the years to come. I wish her the very best life can give her.
Hearing the description of his stare at her in court--he was PO'd because she lived and was there to speak the truth. I don't even have an adjective for how courageous, bold and amazing this girl is--and her family would be SOOO proud of her!! Love, hugs & God Bless you 💕💕
What a precious little girl, I’m so sorry 😢
Seen this one several times, that young girl was so intelligent and well spoken.. I hope she is doing well in life nowadays
Bravery isn't the half of what this beautiful soul has shown. I hope her life shows her kindness and love for all the days she has on this Earth. XOX From Ireland
What a courageous young woman Robin is. And what a beautiful community she has for support. ❤
I personally was captivated by this child's bravery, courage and intelligence. She has an old soul, many blessings to her. ✨️
Her parents did a wonderful job, they would be so proud of her.
They are proud of her
Strongest little girl I've ever seen. ❤❤
This is one of the more powerful episodes I've seen for sure. I wish I could just give both Robin and Chad a big hug and say thank you for being role models and inspirations to all of us!
The way those law enforcement officers love her 😭🥹
You never go past it. You learn to cope with it. And Robin is a very strong woman. I send all blessings to her and all the people around her. ❤
What a brave, poised little girl she was❤ I admire her intelligence.
Probably one of the best 48 Hours I have ever watched.
This made me cry .. Robin your story reminds me that there’s nothing we cannot overcome in life
My heart breaks for this extremely courageous and very special girl. I send her love and healing and I wish her well with a loving family of her own.
This dirtbag should have still been locked up!
I wonder how the parole board who let him out after serving 20% of his sentence felt after these crimes.
why do you say he was let out? did he got released?
I found this: ¨Incarcerated in a Missouri State Penitentiary serving two life sentences without the possibility of parole.¨
Parole board should be in jail
He was jailed BEFORE the murders to 14 years but was released early
@diadea4366 he was let out after his first crime, where he burned his own relatives' house down. Served less than 3 of 14 years he was sentenced to. This was about 4 years prior to all the murders.
@@diadea4366, highflyer001 is referring to the murderer's incarceration prior to the murders. Levi King had been released early and sent to a halfway house--from which he escaped. Had he served his full fourteen years, the victims may very well still be alive.
What she called being supersticious is PTSD and her not wanting therapyis CPTSD. Therapy in her situation can retraumatize her. She's an amazing woman with a long road of healing ahead. Some things will never be the same when evil like this enters your life. It will take years to recover but to live to tell her story is powerful and she's not alone. I commend the deputy and his crew for surrounding her with the support she needs.
I'm 60, and when I grow up I want to be as strong and brave as that beautiful warrior!❤
Robin is an amazing young lady. She made me cry for just being so strong and resilient. I love how the law enforcement guys have kept in contact, and they take care of her. That guy should have gotten the death sentence. I hope the other young man too, whose mum and granddad were killed, will be okay. The killer should never have been released before serving his ten years in the first place. It would probably have prevented all this.
She is so amazing. I was crying while getting ready for work.
Robin and Matthew.
Robyn is an amazing woman, wise beyond her age, her family would be so so proud.
This story brought tears, even after having been retired from law enforcement almost as long as I served. My best wishes to Robin for a good life. A well done to those officers involved. They are a credit to the badges they wear.
She is so strong. I know this episode is old, but I do hope that she has changed her stance on mental healthcare. Treatment is not being weak or being pitied. She goes on to say that she doesnt need to speak to a professional, but then talks about how she has a list of “superstitions” that she has to complete before feeling safe. That is not true healing. She has done IMMENSE healing on her own, but you also need professional guidance. Just my opinion as someone who has lost both parents and was resistant to treatment. The “tough it out” mentality is not the badge of honor that you think it is
I saw this on another true crime show but hearing the strength of the little girl now turned into a grown woman, is astonishing. I can’t imagine being in her shoes, unreal strength she has. Sorry for your losses, no one deserves that. 😢😡
My mum died 4 years ago even to this day it hurts
But to lose your whole family for absolutely no reason I bare to consider what pain this strong woman feels to this day.
Robin, You are serving your purpose. I needed to hear your story. I have one that i am really struggling with, the bitterness.....Thank you for showing your strength and reminding me that there's nothing we can't survive.
"turn him into a human being" ..
dude he killed a preganant woman...!!the whole innocent 2 different families...!! where's the human being in him...?!
I hate how there is always an “excuse” for when certain individuals commit horrible crimes.. he killed SIX people!! I can care less about how filthy his house was.
Both of my parents are hoarders and I haven’t killed anyone. I’ve also never felt the *real* urge to do it. Crazyyyyy almost like there’s smth else fundamentally wrong with that dude. And what do we do with animals with no quality of life? Or a farm animal that can’t get along with the rest and keeps killing the herd? 🤔
But notice how they always pray on: defenseless, elderly, children. I don't recall once in all my years that these "crazy" people ever target a biker bar, gangbangers, etc..
@@PPillowWe put the animal in time out and let them go back into the pen with the other animals due to good behavior.
I’ve seen worse hoarded houses! At least you could use the toilet.
There were many other factors. If you study serial killers it is shown that their childhood and how they were parented is a factor. Abuse on all levels, broken relationships, broken relationships etc does matter - not everyone ends up a killer but it can affect some people so deeply and they turn into psychopaths. No excuses it's just facts.
I wish Robin the best in life. She can never forget evil but forgiveness was and is on her side❤️🙏🙏🙏
This episode had me crying buckets of tears... not because I pity Robin but because of the welcoming warmth she received from the people. She made the right decision to stay and live in her hometown... she was surrounded by love there. She is very strong and a fighter... I think that for her, going on with her life is her way of saying to her Mom, Brian and brother Zac that hey he Levi didnt get us all... I'm still alive and will continue living w/ our wonderful memories as a family.
Robin you're my hero. Just when I thought I wanted to give up here I see you. Your story has given me strength. Sending love to you ❤
48 Hours, this is the best video you have ever made.
Best video???
What an episode, i had absolute shivers seeing her as a young girl and speaking about what happened. What can you even say, i hope she can be happy 😢
You go girl! Jesus loves you dearly ❤
So proud of Robin's resilience and determination to keep going and not let evil ruin her life. This is an amazing story on survivor triumph. Kudos to all the Law Enforcement in the Pampa area that responded and have stayed in Robin's life. #ProudTexan.
She looks so much like her mom.😢
No she doesn't
@@joyceanthony-huff2914yes she does. Idk what you're looking at.
What an amazingly brave 10 yr old!
This brought me to tears! It’s both sad and heartwarming. The way the community has watched out for Robin is wonderful and Robin is an amazing young lady!
Well said
If you're having a bad day or you think you are having a tough time in life just remember this girl and what she's endured and overcome. It can always be worse so count your blessings and hold your loved ones tight 💞
Poor young lady, I hope she has found comfort somewhere. I would not have been able to stop myself from hugging her when she was being questioned.
So this pos received a 14-year sentence but he was out in 3?
For burning down his parents' house - 4 yrs before the killing spree
@@virginiasanchis1717
He burglarized and burned down a neighbor's home. That's what got him the 14 years.
Going thru life without a mom and dad sucks 😢no matter how you lost em . Glad she has all that support.
Her dad is alive
Robin is a very brave and insightful woman.
Watched this story a few times, props to the Daughter to push thru and live on for her family
Another story superbly told by Erin Moriarty.
Thanks to her HUGE staff of WRITERS, EDITORS, PRODUCERS, and DIRECTORS.
Just because someone may not have gone through the same type of trauma doesn’t mean you can’t help them because you can! And just your story of your strength is so inspiring to me, especially when your goodness & how special you are shows through a tv!
I can’t imagine your feelings of loss through the years, but from 1 Texas girl to another, it’s obvious you have a lot of people praying for you and caring about you! May God continue to work on you, work with you & work through you all for His glory! And rest in the comfort that you will see your momma, brother & step dad again one day! Trust me, the older I get, I realize how perfect God’s plan is in that we don’t have to say a permanent goodbye here on earth if we have Salvation through Jesus to make Heaven our home eternally!🙏💕
I'm in tears over the courage and love displayed by Robin and everyone in her life. Wow. Your "purpose" has already begun. You and all of the precious souls that are surrounding you have given me hope and inspiration to live a loving life. Thank you, all of you. May God continue to bless all of you!
Robin, I’ve never met anyone like you. Incredibly special! Articulate from the beginning. Positive, loving, insightful, wise way beyond your years and so easy to see that there IS a special reason you were spared. I hope you keep us all posted on your ventures.
That kid saying "I want my mom" over the phone made me cry. Not sure I can handle hearing it again stop repeating it pls 😭
Robin, if you happen to see this, you are an AMAZING & STRONG young woman! What an inspiration you are! So very impressed by you!
What an incredibly strong young woman... and what an amazing law enforcement agency... these people are all exceptional!
Robin is such a positive and strong person. My best wishes to her from India
I’ve heard this story before but what an amazing, brave, level headed 10yo! I’m so sorry for the severe traumas and loss of your loved ones, and all you’ve had to endure, Robin.
I cried at this one. I don't know if I've ever wanted to gather a child into my arms as much. I wish I could travel back in time and comfort her.
This video reminds me of the phrase "it takes a village to raise a child". It's a beautiful example of how an entire Community or "village" came together to provide a safe, healthy environment for Robin Doan. When she spoke, they listened and took her seriously. Everyone worked together to provide a safe, healthy environment for her and as a result she has developed into a stable young woman who undoubtedly will realize her hopes and dreams. Every single person featured in this video is a hero and they demonstrate the good that can be accomplished when we treat others with compassion and kindness💟
Robin is strong woman despite tragedy
And because of it.
Very brave girl. Robin is inspirational. Thank you Robin.
I know exactly how she feels regarding therapy/therapists. I hope she finds her own way to work through everything - seems like she's already got a pretty good headstart on it! ❤ Beautiful, strong woman. May her family rest in peace🕊️
How pointless, cowardly to do something so randomly to someone for absolutely no reason. He will be held to account for these brutal crimes, even after his miserable life is over
This is one of my favorite episodes because of Robin’s bravery and strength. What an amazing young lady.
I hope she knows, or comes to know, of the love God has for her.
”But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.“
Romans 5:8
Thank you for sharing this story with all of us!! It was a miracle that her nightmare was solved, and not left unresolved for decades!!
She has turned into an incredible young lady, and her community deserves a hug for being there for her and making a difference in her future!!
Blessings to all of the ones shown in this story, thank you!!!
Absolutely horrible the things that human beings have to deal with in this life.
No true crime has ever broken my heart more than this one! 💔 This girl is honestly one of the strongest humans that I have ever seen! I wish that I could have been there for her... Her mother and father raised a strong beautiful young lady and I know that they would be so proud of her!
Bless y’all for staying close❣️ Robin, the tragic, horrific way you lost your mom, stepdad, & brother - no one can duplicate your grief, loss, & all that go with them. Everyone has his/ her own way of processing, & I think everyday is another day on the road to healing.
I think we don’t really “get over” these losses, but it’s on the journey where we grow stronger, wiser. I know others who have or hours where they look deeper into everything, & “why” becomes so redundant they feel silly or sometimes almost angry because there may not be an answer, or that the answer may be further down the road on the journey.
I’d say you’ve got some mighty awesome folks who love you & want the very best for you! I know you’re making your heavenly family proud too!
I think we are already seeing part of the calling on Robin's life. Am amazing, beautiful young woman whose testimony is reaching around the world and touching people's hearts. Thank God for those who have supported Robin, bless you all.
This is the only episode that has brought tears to my eyes. My heart shatters for the little girl who experienced the loss of her family. But my heart also is proud of how strong of a young woman she has become. God bless you darling
