this bring me to tears to think they were all just innocent boys hanging out. We need to really show our kids that “everybody ain’t your partner, everybody ain’t your friend”
Folks, this is the very reason why I volunteered for Big Brothers, to help kids just like this one from becoming THIS. The boy I mentored couldn't look people in their eyes, he couldn't speak clearly. So I had him stand up tall and read from a book and project his voice to practice public speaking with me as the audience. He actually cried because it was so difficult for him, but I knew what I was doing was the right thing somehow. Because I never wanted that boy to end up like THIS.
Congrats on saving the young man that you did. This guy was unfortunately not so lucky and a community let him go without guidance and now as a result he is numb from the things that be has had to do and see to survive
That's because he still has an undeveloped brain ...it takes males longer too mature ...well most of them, I didn't mature till I was 25..but before then,in my head I was grown
People have a problem with the way this young kid is testifying. You do see who is grilling him while he’s talking right? This kid was under this bully and now he’s facing him in court. It can’t be easy for him even if it’s years later.
@@kathymccarthy5264 Sooo self righteous. In my youth I made mistakes with the people I would sometimes hang out with; it's called being young and naive.
You people are a trip he clearly has some development and speech issues. Is it not obvious by the video. Whether hes a snitch or not he had grown men manipulating and threatening him to kill his own friends. Why do you think hes risking everything to tell his side of the story. Get mad and frustrated at the GROWN MEN who orchestrated it. Hes not innocent by any means but there are bigger monsters in that courtroom.
As a community, we are failing our children. Some of them are born into situations and don’t even stand a chance due to cycles of poverty, lack of parenting, values, and morals!!!!
This not an excuse for crime. The opportunities these kids in the u.s. have 80% of our kids in Africa don't have such opportunities, yet they don't commit these crimes. Poverty, lack of parenting is not an excuse. People came from orphanage homes and became successful, people was raise by single parent and still became some body good in society. It is just the issue of knowing where u from and where you want to go.
@siti1ca prayers do work, if our prayers did not get answered then we wouldn't continue to do so.. what they need and you is the gift of repentance!!= stop, think and turn from your sin.. its the end.. why are you playing games with God sinners? Please cry out while there is still time.. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 King James Version 9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
Hes not acting tough. hes actually scared. Snitching is so frowned upon and he's trying to preserve a level of stoicism to balance out his feeling of guilt from betraying his friends and the "street code". which sucks because he was a kid when it happend.
I see a lifeless little boy with no direction in life. This is very saddening for me. He seems scared but like he's putting on a tough exterior. The saying that the eyes never lie is real. I feel all of his emotions just looking into his eyes. His soul is in a heavy dark place. Ive been there before, im praying for you kid
This is the saddest thing I have ever seen! A child with no one in his life to support him and protect him from people that he thought were his friends!
He NEVER LOOKED UP ONCE when detailing what he was made to do. If you all can’t see he is traumatized I don’t think you are emotionally aware. He HAS to stay strong in front of that demon. Just imagine, smh. May God bless this young man and the victims families. 🙏🏾
What are you talking about? He’s just as guilty as the rest. Instead of taking responsibility he’s trying to blame it all on someone else. Plea deals because police needed the testimonies. These guys are out trying to do paid hits in stolen cars to start the night off lol.
I feel bad for him, he was a 15 year old kid being influenced by an adult to commit horrible acts while also clearly being in fear for his life. Everyone acts as if they would’ve known what they would’ve done in that situation not knowing what those kids in that demographic go through. A lot of people failed the victims and those involved in their murders. I hope he gets the help he needs.
I couldn't imagine. I have a 16 yr old and id fight to the death for my son to get help if need be and not go to jail and this older man needs to go to jail period !!!
@@aprilMichelleXJRL exactly! There was no reason those kids were involved with him in the first place. That’s where their parents failed them but all the fingers have to be pointed at Bryce Rhodes.
Not realizing that this happened 7 years ago when he was 15 .. the court system failed them.. now he’s 22 making it look he made these decisions as an adult..
This is so horribly sad to watch. The fact this child has dealt with this kind of life and so many other children are living like this. This is deplorable.
It’s a vicious circle, the mother and the one that got her pregnant probably went through it as well but none of them managed to learn from others mistakes and until they start learning from the mistakes of the adults nothing will change.
He’s scared for his life because he’s telling the story of his friends getting killed. But also Bryce is sitting right in front of him, and he’s scared of being labeled a rat.
watching this made my entire heart melt usually I don’t feel bad for people when they’re in jail, but his story is so much different, and heartbreaking. he looks so sweet, and was took advantage of when he was 15. I’m glad that he’s being released sometime this year on 5 years probation from what I’ve read.
This breaks my heart for Larry, Maurice, their family, and the young man telling this story. I'm just glad the one telling the story lived. Sad situation.
i live by “ somebody gotta live to tell the story “ so by any means if ik it wont lead me right i get outta dodge but he was in a predicament with a rage serial killer sounds like so now he in a place he dont deserve to be😢
He was only a 15 year old kid when this happened. Clearly has no guidance in his life. Clearly got no professional help after this happened. Of course he reoffended and is back in jail. This kid had no support. Still doesn’t. Look at his demeanor. Ppl saying negative things should be ashamed.
No his arse should be ashamed you should be ashamed because the victims family is witnessing you empathize with the individual who killed their family member.
I honestly see the face and body language of a kid who doesn't want to show fear and seem tough in front of the person he's accusing. If everything he said is true about the older guy. That's who needs to be serving time. He ordered the kids to stab their friends after he already killed them is sickening.
😢😢😢😢This is so heartbreaking. That guy is clearly a bully. He was sleeping from post to post at 15 of course he want to get paid. The older guy just took it out of proportion.
Telling what happened puts his life in danger so brave of him to tell the truth and it gives the family closure of not even knowing and wondering. He never tried to hide it it appears. He seemed so worried/ scared with that guy there .
Very sad he only got 3 years. But typically he was rearrested after violating his probation. How much education has this criminal had? Not much in my honest opinion!! I blame the parents too.
Imagine sending your 15 year old to school for an education but really they were just meeting there future accomplice to a crime that would change their life forever.
Too many kids are in this world on their own. Raising themselves. Left for all the negative elements of society to shape their lives. This is heart-wrenching.
@@DrMatthewHudsonit’s obvious by your response that you missed the whole point of the comment. Nobody said nothing about it being his fault or NOT! Dayum 🤦🏽♀️ I’m certain, everyone will be held accountable, including the man on stand testifying. Are you satisfied now?
@@never4saken165 Im still trying to figure out what you said. "Nobody said nothing" is a double negative that doesn't make sense. And what does "dayum" mean?
@@DrMatthewHudson It's definitely their fault. But it doesn't mean a path hasn't been established for them to end up like this. We all have wills but environments will affect the conscience in clearly catastrophic ways.
A case of adults befriending kids and exploiting them to crimes, drugs and lord knows what else. Glad laws changed and those adults are held accountable for their parts. You suppose to lead and be examples not teach and kill them. My prayers to the victims families!!
It's because they know in most cases juveniles will just get community service for petty crimes and be back out on the streets in no time. That is until a murder happens.
@@gravynobiggie if you are a grown man having little boys hanging with you drinking and smoking all day… that is not the same. Both are sick, but you are saying that the kids should have better judgement, and the adult should go along with what a child thinks of them?
This is just heartbreaking. This young man had to watch his friends get stabbed, scared to death of dying....parents needs to pay attention to who their kids hang out with. This kid was hanging out with the wrong crowd, only 15 years of age, 15yrs old. Just a baby
They would not listen to you these kids do what they want their friends they think is their family and they scared of them so if they don’t do what the bigger one say they got killed too my heart goes out for all of them that guy no what he was doing to those kids destroy their life killed two brother how could you
This is his own cousin influencing him,the same cousin that's homeless ECT,staying with friends and on the streets,why didn't his aunt take him in, I'm sure he felt some type of way,not giving dude a pass,BUT BRYCE WAS DONE TERRIBLE AND BY FAMILY MEMBERS THAT'S PROBABLY WHAT MADE HIM HEARTLESS,HIS TESTIMONY GOING TO HOPEFULLY GET HIM LESS TIME,BRYCE WANTED A BODY ON ALL OF THEM THAT'S WHY HE PASSED THE KNIFE TO THEM,AND WHAT REASON WAS THIS WHY DID HE HURT THESE YOUNG MEN??
This was incredibly moving. I tried to put myself in his situation and I couldnt imagine watching my 2 best friends get murdered and then have to stab one who's already dead. All this trauma at only 15 years old, so surreal yet it was his reality.
Not only that, he had to shut off a ton of emotions otherwise he'd be killed right along with them. He'll be dealing with that night for the rest of his life.
@careyanderson6567 unfortunately I think he turned off his emotions a very long time ago...before this incident. As he retells it, he is emotionally removed....or God forbid emotionless/psychopath
Thee other co defendant I really felt bad for, as well. He was STILL scared & didn't wanna testify at all until the judge told him he'd be going to jail had he not.
I don’t feel bad at all in this world you’re either a follower or a leader they chose to be followers you know who I do feel bad for the young men that trusted them as a friend that’s sick
Maurice and his brother Larry literally suffered a gruesome and horrific death by people they respected and thought respected them, I dont believe they ever saw this coming, maybe getting beat up but not death.. Devastating, R.I.P and prayers to their family ❤
Chris Brown cousin appear touched. It all started out as greed. This was so sad to hear these boys probably never expected this to occur. The fact that they did this to members of the same family is heart breaking. Prayers to the family I hope justice is prevailed.🩵🦋🛐🕊️🌹
For those of you saying he's cold & heartless. He has the man that made him do this staring him down first of all, second you obviously can't tell trauma response when you hear or see it. He was 15, 15 years old! & had a grown man telling him to do this stuff. He had to watch that happen to his friends, you don't think he wasn't scared to death it would happen to him too?! Like come on... it's clear that none of you understand what it's like to grow up around that type of lifestyle.
Don’t act like you know what it’s like out there in the streets. I’m from the hood and I wasn’t given a choice on where I was raised but it taught me a lot about people and just life in general
I had a grown man trying to hang out with my son and his friends. He and his wife had a baby, I let him know for sure that i was going to have him locked up for contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Things changed, it was still a struggle
This guy seemed to have mentally stopped developing at fifteen. And if he was a teen caught up in this situation with nowhere to go while others are agreeing to kill these boys, what is expected of him to do? It is incredibly disturbing how the 26-year-old Brice misguided these teens, and the majority went right along with it. Talk about no guidance or direction from a more positive influence of adults. Is this guy, Anjuan getting help for what he had to experience? I mean, if someone forced me to kill my best friends and I actually did it, to save my own life, and now I'm in prison dealing with some brutal conditions...my mind would be blown!
@amandanisbet6842 But he had two choices... kill or be killed. That's what I'm pointing out. "Watching the company you keep" is probably what you wanted to say.
I went to school with them. I will never forget these two young men cut down in their youth. Finally getting justice 8 years later. It still doesn't feel real it's been that long still feels like it happened only yesterday. I hope our souls cross paths again in another life.🙏🕊️ LLL LLM
This is sad. Imagine being 15 the murders of your best friends happened right in front of you. This will live in his head forever. 😔😔 he was in Survival mode
@@roblockhart8410its so easy to say that when you grow up in a nice place. He was a child trying to fit in just like any other . the same way children in mexico are forced to be in gangs to survive its nothing different here.
@@chikensaregood9500so your saying that because he was raised in a poor community, he doesn’t no right from wrong? If he can’t comprehend the morality of not participating in murdering his “friends”, I hope he never gets out! I do feel sorry for him but that doesn’t change my opinion on releasing him into our society ever again!
The only thing I see is how important EDUCATION is! Can’t talk, can’t speak properly, can’t speak up! down right embarrassing and a disgrace! where are the parents?!?
@@americanmade-1This young man has Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) This is a major problem in America, no one is discussing it. The number are extremely high. Over 75% of prison inmates have this disorder. He was bound to have issues before birth.
What kind of grown man runs around and hangs with children/teenagers!? And how do you kill kids of someone you dated!? Idk this seems like more than he thought they were going to snitch. Seems like he wanted to hurt that women and he succeeded in the worst way possible.
These boys were terrified of this grown adult man who had no business hanging out with them in the first place. Of course they participated in this stabbing they were too afraid not to
@@MrKonviktx I find it crazier that you think I did not watch till the end. Just because someone else has a different perspective does not prove ignorance. That bias amongst some still proves to be ignorant.
Many commenters are being unkind about this witness. He hasn't had the best of education & would of been bullied for his speech impediment. To try to fit in he would of went along with the others... It's a tragic case all round
@@clubfillerspinkknickers9791 sounds like you have your knickers in a knot.. After hearing about this young teen & unable in making your own determination as to why some individuals get caught up in situations & do what they do. You decided to verbally attack a random person. It really say a lot about you & your intolerance in general.
I don’t think he is trying to act tough. For some reason it seems like he is trying to hold back tears by the way he talks and moves. I could be wrong though.
As a mom of 3 boys … not knowing where my 15 year old son is or what he’s getting into … scares me. They were kids and he was older knowing better & took them down with him. We really have to pay attention to our kids
That’s always been my fear, raising boys. You just never know what’s really going on. I’m ready to tell my kids, no one is your friend bc of stuff like this.
@katelynnordby8187 stop with the society crap. He lives in the SAME society as EVERYONE else. Stop the victim mentally, that's why these kids end up the way they do! Because like his parents I'm sure, and people like you who brainwash these kids to think the world is against them AND everyone else is to blame, but yourself. He had A CHOICE.
He didn’t say mother he said momma. If your stenographer can’t understand the dialect of the community she’s a part of maybe there should be more diversity in the courtroom employees. She’s suppose to documenting what is said, not her interpretation of what’s being said!
He is trying to hold up and not look afraid. I don’t believe he is tough at all but I may be wrong. I would love to know if any of the fathers of the young men were present in their lives. Teaching our children about who is to be allowed in their circle is very very difficult.
This hurt my very soul. The mother that called her son and this young man's response shows the detrimental state of his mental and his cognitive state.
@@doubled5927 yall forget REAL quick that kids that age have no concept of how prison works. They know murder is wrong, yes, but they don't know that a "life sentence" means your entire life in a box. Plus, he didn't do any violent crap anyway. He was manipulated by this albino clown,.
@@doubled5927 he should be held accountable for HIS actions. But what if they did a better job to where he was focused on positive things in this world? He wouldn’t have been in this situation. They failed him.
@@SluJamesNo he should NOT especially be that the big bad wolf would have killed him too. If he’d say no I’m not doing this. The big bad wolf would’ve killed him on the spot. The big bad wolf gets rid of all that’s not in compliance with it. That’s how the streets operate. You don’t know the street life so you should not be commenting that bs you’re saying
It’s so easy to get in trouble but so hard to get out of it. I wish these young men could stop and think before they go down this road. It’s a waste of your life. There is so much more to life outside the confines of those neighborhoods. Consider joining the military to get out of those environments. It provides pay, housing, retirement plan, free travel to different states and countries (military assignments of course), retirement plan, free medical and dental, etc. You will see that there is more to life than planning crimes every day and victimizing people in your community. Prayers for the families of the victims and perpetrators.
This child probably doesn't have a high school diploma. It sounds like he had a learning disability. For you to say he could've sent to the military etc REALLY? He's a follower 9/10 there's no positive role model in his life. Think before you make comments like this. I believe he's a good child, if he wasn't he wouldn't be testifying.
When you want to belong to something, you will do anything to be accepted. It just seems his parents paid him no attention. This happens to children everywhere all over the world. Sad
Maybe maybe not. Some killers have a two parent loving household. Your comment about wanting to belong is a universal need for humans, and a few will do anything to be accepted
Since I was younger I always hung out with older people. By the time I was 18yrs old most of my friends were already in their 30s. I say that to say I understand when i see a younger kid trying to fit in with older guys however when I see an older guy trying to fit in with a group of kids. That always disturbed me.
I feel bad. Because I feel like any of us would’ve done the same if we was in the same predicament. He wanted to live and I’m sure he was scared. If only he had left the first time he encountered Bryce shoot those random people…but then again I feel like at that point he wouldn’t have an option but to stay around since he witnessed everything. He would’ve probably been considered a liability if he had left and they would’ve killed him too. He was basically stuck and had to go with whatever Bryce put him through. He was young asf too which plays a big role. I don’t care what anyone says we would’ve done it too. He chose his fate. This is incredibly sad.
The way he is uncomfortable because of the killer he’s facing knowing he’s testifying against someone who used them and had them become apart of the murder

Prayers to the loved ones of the victims. 🙏🏾✨ The witness seems like he already knows his fate is sealed…it’s like he gave up & in at a very young age. He is traumatized on the inside and desensitized to the world.
This really hurt my heart to see a scared, traumatized being. I don’t believe he wanted to do any of the things that he did, but I believe he did it out of fear for his life. There is a small part of me that feels like there was a small part of him that felt that since the others are participating I can’t just run or walk away, or simply just say I’m not doing this. This is so messed up. He definitely needs to do time for his part in this. No one held a knife/gun to him. RIP to the Brothers that lost their lives😢. Deepest condolences to their family.
Was born in the 80s and lived in Louisville my entire life. Stories like this are happening all over our city. The crimes that use to be prevalent in a certain area have spread to all neighborhoods. I remember when school doors would stay open all school day. I remember the very day they started locking doors and asking for ID. I remember when disaster drills changed from natural weather disasters to active shooter disasters. I remember when school fights were rare, and when schools had activity nights where schools were filled with families playing games, and rooms filled with smiles and laughter. Look how far this city has spiraled. Crime rates soaring, divorce rates climbing, summers are filled with juveniles causing terror across the city. The parks aren't even safe anymore. Sign of the times, I suppose, disappointing and depressing indeed.
Born in the 80’s, your life was different in Louisville than mine, school experience and everything. What’s life to you may not be life for others. Only difference is active shooter drills.
💔 looking at this young sitting there on the stand really reminds me of my son , breaks my heart Prayers out to him and his family and the victim's family condolences and lift them up in prayers🙏😥
The mother should be charged also, because she didnt reported her children missing the school did after missing school too many days and kids spreading rumors about the kids may be dead

10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
Hes not acting tough. hes actually scared. Snitching is so frowned upon and he's trying to preserve a level of stoicism to balance out his feeling of guilt from betraying his friends and the "street code". which sucks because he was a kid when it happend.
EXACTLY 💯
Right. This is so sad. That's more traumatization because he can't even grieve.
Cognitive Dissonance. He needs to come to the realization IT'S YOU OR ME. Self-preservation says it's gonna be YOU.

You’re right and I absolutely hate that street code.
I see a lifeless little boy with no direction in life. This is very saddening for me. He seems scared but like he's putting on a tough exterior. The saying that the eyes never lie is real.

Exactly
I wouldn’t of u crazy
Same here @@tkkirkland220
He needs Help instead of Incarceration. He is traumatized. This is so SAD. What’s happening to our Young Men who is in Bondage
Where were his parents? Why is everyone else’s responsibility to raise decent, honest, young men? Where was his dad?
@@HolySoopCoolersby reading the comments unfortunately neither parents were around was told he seemed to needed help even as a little child
The way he is uncomfortable because of the killer he’s facing knowing he’s testifying against someone who used them and had them become apart of the murder
Makes me so nauseous omg😞, prayers to the two who lost their lives and for this young man for being brave to tell the story.

Brave?
@@postman9957 yes. He could get kilt for snitching tf
Him trying to find his words is so sad . You have an adult putting these kids who have no guidance to do his dirty work is just so wrong. I pray for this young man and the families who lost their loved ones .
Prayers to the loved ones of the victims. 🙏🏾✨
The witness seems like he already knows his fate is sealed…it’s like he gave up & in at a very young age.
He is traumatized on the inside and desensitized to the world.
It’s a vicious cycle! We have to intervene and stop this from happening again and again!
So sad
Q-Do you believe in Jesus Christ?
Where did you get your psychology degree from?
Yep exactly.
I watch a ton of crime documentaries but I’ve never been as jaw dropped as this. This is chilling.
He came out disrespectful. Fatherless. This breaks my heart. I just want to hug him.
I was thinking the same thing. He was deprived of love.. God bless him. He is traumatized, his speech and body language tells it all!
This really hurt my heart to see a scared, traumatized being. I don’t believe he wanted to do any of the things that he did, but I believe he did it out of fear for his life. There is a small part of me that feels like there was a small part of him that felt that since the others are participating I can’t just run or walk away, or simply just say I’m not doing this. This is so messed up. He definitely needs to do time for his part in this. No one held a knife/gun to him.
RIP to the Brothers that lost their lives😢. Deepest condolences to their family.
He was in fear look at this kid in his face he didn't really want to do what he did but he found himself in a situation by the older guy and pressured
The older guy he killed first .then he pressured them to follow through with the knives for their own life. this kid is traumatized🎉 before & after.
The guy did hold a knife to him and told him to stab the other guy...I'm sure he felt like the knife was on him
They was his friend 1st.
Doesn’t excuse the fact. Imagine the family of the victim hearing you say this
I’m struggling to understand what he’s saying… Lawd
Me too
@@nerdseyeview2936girl shut up.
Dude stroking his beard n tryna dust his shoulders off like he ain’t finna get cooked😂😂
He mad asl he up there telling his truth.
I said the same thing
"tryna''... "ain't finna" ... adorable lil' made up language. Are you P-Diddy's son? 😂
@@hughjoelcaulk7244🌽🏀
Like he’s John Gotti😂😂😂
This was senseless. That guy screwed these young boys lives. This boy can't even answer questions. Talking all low and half pronouncing his words. Yuk
Tell me about it. I thought something was wrong with me because I could barely understand him.
he has a stuttering issue. they all screwed up their own lives
He most likely never had a chance in life!! All he knows. Unbelievable smdh
@@misswildlife7905 I havent heard one stutter come from him. Just monkey mutter.
@@misswildlife7905even the victims?
Was born in the 80s and lived in Louisville my entire life. Stories like this are happening all over our city. The crimes that use to be prevalent in a certain area have spread to all neighborhoods. I remember when school doors would stay open all school day. I remember the very day they started locking doors and asking for ID. I remember when disaster drills changed from natural weather disasters to active shooter disasters. I remember when school fights were rare, and when schools had activity nights where schools were filled with families playing games, and rooms filled with smiles and laughter.
Look how far this city has spiraled. Crime rates soaring, divorce rates climbing, summers are filled with juveniles causing terror across the city. The parks aren't even safe anymore. Sign of the times, I suppose, disappointing and depressing indeed.
honest and true, beechmont neighborhood has done a whole 360 from when i was younger
Born in the 80’s, your life was different in Louisville than mine, school experience and everything. What’s life to you may not be life for others. Only difference is active shooter drills.
Fairy tale
Yeah cause the world was so safe
Fairdale here..I had to move out of Louisville cause the crime has gotten so bad over the yrs..I moved to Bardstown and now live in Elizabethtown..
💔 looking at this young sitting there on the stand really reminds me of my son , breaks my heart Prayers out to him and his family and the victim's family condolences and lift them up in prayers🙏😥
The mother should be charged also, because she didnt reported her children missing the school did after missing school too many days and kids spreading rumors about the kids may be dead
This is so heartbreaking. That dude is probably going to get revenge taken out on him for so-called snitching. The leader of the crew looks very intimidating. They killed those two brothers. Betrayal by friends is so hurtful.
You're absolutely 💯 correct. They'll know bout his Snitchin in jail before he gets there.
@@foxybrown1742 and that’s scary. People get hurt and or killed in prison. The warden is more than likely going to put him in PC at the request of his lawyer. I think that would be the best for him. I wish him well.
Good he's a demon too, all this sympathy is madness
@@Rebel-IV he was influenced by an intimidating drug addicted wanna be gangster adult. He didn't kill them he was forced to brutalize an already deceased corpse. 120lbs vs a 200lbs grown man. I'm sure you would've done what you were told as well at that age with that beast standing over you. The sympathy is warranted whether you agree with it or not.
It's not so called..
This is heartbreaking! As a parent. Where are there parents? Not blaming them , but with kids we have to know who , what when and where. Lives are gone . I feel so bad for this kid😢
The mom was the girlfriend of the killer from my understanding.
Sad!
*their🤦🏻♂️
Kids are baby goats 🐐 smh
@@amberivey1311Are you actually being serious???
He’s reliving every detail , trying not to breakdown. It takes a tremendous amount of courage to face a monster in court. The master manipulator. So sad.
OMG. I must have been under a rock because today is one of the first times I have heard of this story. I will have to go back and make the connections to that monster that was finally sentenced. Disgusting. Heartbreaking.
Yes that's what I did when I first heard of it. This story is insane & so is bryce
@@Theinvisible1 Glad I'm not the only one out of the loop. I have to be in a certain mental space for this one. Pray for me.
Me too so sad😢😢
I just saw it today...and quite disturbed.
My First Time Hearing About This Story As Well
