CT resident here raised by a single mom in one of these communities, i was lucky, now middle class and made it out. you can drive 30 minites out of these areas and be met with some of the richest families of the east coast. CT has a long history of manufacturing textiles, gun parts, precision machinery, aircraft, and gerneral hand tools. The whole state made a shift into buiesness headquarters / office work. Maybe a mix of the ivy league schools and politics played a big part. This left a big hole for the underprivileged and with the social issues in these cumunities you can see where it lead. Social media is giving them eyes they never had befor. Im really sad seeing this becuase years ago, these were my friends that are either dead or in jail. Nobody cares about CT so CT does care. I think ill move out before my kids get into middle school because this place isnt recovering anytime soon and i dont want them to struggle like i did.
No nobody cares about Connecticut anymore because it's dead ass so expensive and either way you're getting ripped off by the politicians at run it. Like I'm sorry but even if you're living in a shity parts of CT now and you're still going to be spending an arm and a leg just to get a fucking apartment. And CT resident who are you from the white parts who really see this shit every day, wonder why there are these things happening people selling drugs, people stealing cars, prostitution, etc. well guess it's our fellow politicians. Our own government. Bro I'll be working three jobs and I can barely even be making out of these struggles but I'm smarter than these dumb fucks to turn into some pretty ass crime or be selling some drugs or sum shit it ain't worth it.

Just seeing this video alone, financial literacy is one of the most important skills to have. Kids taking risks for $100 and spending on designer clothes is absurd.
Learning to speak the English language correctly should be #1 but I guess that doesn't even make the list. This is what drugs do to the brain, strips it down to its base.
Probably the most important comment, but is buried by hate. Andrew is the example we need of reaching out to the communities and asking the tough questions that need to be asked. We should feel compassion for both sides of this issue but we just joke about the ignorance. Who's job is it to dispel the ignorance? Every single member of a community would be my guess.
its more of a cultural issue than education honestly, these are moral values to be instilled in young people. You're certainly right that they're not wise enough to calculate cost benefit and risk financially, but its a deeper issue. They grow up believing from a young age they don't belong to regular society
Unfortunately, as a middle school teacher, this reminds me of many of my students. You hit the nail on the head asking about role models and showing their environment. Without a secure presence in their lives, these kids really strive for attention in any way possible. Thanks for another great story here.
thats really crazy... what is your community going to be in 10 years. feel like this crap is spreading too - its very concerning. I live in a suburban area - relatively affluent and i'll tell you, even some of these youths over here model this culture. makes me sick seeing that crap and they're so rude - 0 respect for anything or anyone.
as a connecticut native, you did a better job covering this than any local news segment or tiktoker trying to capture just a glimpse. wild world out here
I never thought I'd see WHIIIITE boys from Connecticut droppin the n-word 30 times a minute and actually escaping cop chases. These are WEIRD times we live in 😂

And how it all feeds each other in one giant amalgamation. It’s very educational. Yet still keeps the channel 5 charm and entertainment. Never have I seen any other journalist like you. Channel 5 has come such a long way.
Definitely, Andrew gets into some mad risky scenarios and he pulls it off like most other journalists can't. Only people comparable I can think of are other journalists at the front lines of war
@@borisyeltsin6606 Nah, he most definitely is a journalist - the dude literally had a college degree in journalism specifically, and his job is to be a journalist. Is he doing editorials and writing columns? no. Does that make him any less of a journalist? *_No._* He is actually qualified to call himself a journalist both in terms of credential and profession.
@@eyespliced People now a days are so used to hacky spin journalism that they forgot Journalism was only ever supposed to be reporting the facts as they find them.
The fact there are people out there who have no remorse or care how they affect people by stealing their car, really shows the lack of personal respect people like this have for themselves. My father's Kia was stolen two days after her brother died of cancer, he really had to put his grief to the side and deal with reporting it stolen, finding it, finding out the condition it was left in, and the back and forth with his insurance. Luckily his insurance did cover the loss of the car. But it really took an emotional impact on him.
KIA boys dont realize that Kevin isnt actually the opp but the figure in their lives that would help redirect their lives and help fulfill whatever empty space they have in their lives. We are all in this together. One love.
they're clearly not actually doing it for the money they're just kids breaking laws because they don't have any direction or guidance and it's cathartic for them
What's funny is that I looked on OfferUp for the Hangover trilogy DVD set, and one of the listings goes for $0 and you only pay $3.49 for the shipping.
It’s true though. It’s very obvious think about advertising and brand placement for products in movies etc. then compare it to the advertisment of designer brands in modern rap. Gucci with lil pump is an obvious one.
I have no empathy. My 2008 Hyundai has been broken into 5 times in 4 months and damaged but not able to be stolen because it's the wrong year and if I catch them I'll be the one facing prison.
40-year-old dad watching your videos and I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you incorporating the fatherhood message. Dad stick around and raise your kids..
@egilskallagrimsson2941 thays not true and how do you know their dads. Good parents both there and teenagers still sometimes do dumb crap for fun especially if their bored. They don't understand the consequences like an adult would. They will one day though when they see this.
We’ll also. He did a story in Crip mac whose father was out of the picture. And it become a main focal point on some part his documentary type video of him recently.
So sad to see any kid in any nation without any perspective in live. This should never happen in any rich nation, it's bad enough that it happens in poor nations.
Only one detail is off: The uber rich don't recognize those labels at all. Only the puppets of the uber rich, like the celebrities we see on TV, flash these labels as paid advertisements, but you won't catch actual uber rich people running around with that flashy nonsense. Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk, you know what I mean.
not even just the fact they’re connecting their Bluetooth. They’re bringing their phones PERIOD. And recording videos. All videos have geolocation coordinates in their metadata. And every time they use their phone, they’re pinging the closest cell tower & giving their location away. Just leave your phone at home if you’re doing dirt, man… even YNW melly would be free RIGHT NOW, with how crazy his case is, if he just left his phone at home. But they pinned him at the crime scene because he had his phone.
It’s so sad… the fact that these kids are “doing it for the money” having nothing to show for it but shoes and clothes shows how little they understand the world. I’m glad Andrew actually pressed them on role models, people in their lives, etc… man this is heart breaking.
This is what happens when all the corporations take jobs overseas, working class parents can't afford to move to where there are jobs but the suburbanites can so the tax base falls through the floor, the schools get gutted, and everyone below a certain income level get left behind and it all turns to shit. Unchecked capitalism has been doing this to communities across the planet since the industrial revolution. Probably before then too honestly
@patw9175 too bad I respect the people actually working to get somewhere, if you think somethings fucked up and you go ahead and steal you deserve to be thrown in jail and stay because you won't mature
@moosesues8887 yea but at least they really put in the effort to do the right thing, not because of the system but because normally doing the wrong thing puts other people into bad spots too and that's fucked up because they're probably in a similar situation to you, so them getting luck is like something everyone's happy about
@@patw9175 yea word the worst part is imperialism has done this to every single third world country stealing any resources and people that would make the country profitable leaving almost the entire world in the dirt. This although sad is nothing compared to what goes on in other countries.
Animals aren't your tools. They used animals out of a lack of technology back in the day. We don't have that problem. If our corrupt ass politicians would stop importing cars that have been compromised and social media billionaire owners would start censoring this trash it would not be near as much of a problem it is. Let the horses roam, hold greedy pigs(Kia and government) responsible for their actions. Problem minimized.
High fashion for awhile now has been associated with poverty imo. Been around a lot of execs there isn't a brand logo anywhere on them. It's kinda funny.
CT resident here. This has become such a problem that insurance companies around me are jacking up the rates to insure Kia’s because of the risk of this happening. A few years back we had a Kia that was broken into but luckily wasn’t stolen. We found a usb cord on the floor when we cleaned up the glass from the window. If you ask anyone here, someone knows someone who’s Kia/Hyundai has been stolen by these guys. It’s a serious problem. Thanks for your work bringing attention to this Andrew and Channel 5. Love your stuff.
They know what they are doing is wrong and continue doing it because it’s easier than doing the right thing which is to get a normal job like the people they steal from. What’s stopping them from turning their life around? What greater influence do they need that they don’t have at this age to make them change for the better? They are bad people. They aren’t lost kids. By their age you know the difference between right and wrong.
@@ronswanson1410it might say more about you if you're just disregarding people that easily. money isn't even really a factor kids just like doing dumb shit, if you were raised in a healthy place that might be underage drinking, if you're from some shithole housing project that's stealing cars. Realistically there is nothing stopping them from getting a job and not stealing cars but it's definitely just a group of kids that haven't been taught how to behave in society. the intent of stealing a kia isn't any real malicious thing, they aren't killing people or hurting them directly they're just doing dumb shit for fun. it's stupid, misled, super fucking dangerous. but they're still kids, your brain isn't done developing until you're 24, these people are barely hitting 17
Had my Kia stolen and the woman at 18:40 hit the nail on the head as to how it makes you feel. I only had liability at the time too so I lost $8,000 from the car's value, and was forced to take on a new car payment. It set me back 1-2 years financially.
Ya but anyone who has their car can feel that way, womp womp! They didn’t go into your house and shit in your bed and steal your tv. They took your car, not at gunpoint or anything either. I know it’s terrible to feel that feeling of being like vulnerable from having something stolen. But unless it’s a home break in, I can’t fathom genuinely feeling like unsafe for my life or whatever the hell she and yall are on about.
The last part on Kevin Morse was such a good end to this doc. I sympathized with every single perspective (at times more than/at the expense of others) and that reveal into why he cares kind of brought it all together. Thanks for that.
Yeah they really cheaped out on not putting immobilizers and proper theft protection. Unfortunately, even though their reputation is wrecked, they’ll continue selling cars because lots of people like them cheap.
99% of the time it's not the engineer's fault, it's the company's fault for not listening to the engineer and being cheap. source: am an engineer and this happens all the time.
People don't realize that most victims of car theft can't just call insurance for a new ride. It takes weeks or months, and insurance will fight you along the entire way, while requiring you to pay your deductible that many people aren't able to pay anyway. It is an insane crime that deserves the harshest punishments, but the collapse of insurance itself is another thing that needs an eye on.
Honestly I hope that this encourages people to build public transportation I’m tired of being required to own a car to engage in society. So I would rather all of the cars get stolen so they would build a buss And streetcar
@@smokedbeefandcheese4144public transportation would get destroyed the same way these kias get destroyed. If you want to enjoy PT you'll need to move out of the US

Really well done journalism from Andrew and the team at Channel 5. Breaking down the societal and community factors that lead youth into crime is very important to give the audience the full picture and not just be like 'black teenagers are crazy and stealing cars' like most cable news does

@@teresaesquivel2040 I'd bet they most likely are aware of who the kids are already-- My guess is they are keeping a tail on them/monitoring them on social media to try and find the older dudes that use these cars for missions/licks/getback.etc. These kids are young, and 100$ seems like a lot at that age, & no social support makes them easy targets for manipulation. The cops are likely aware of this, & know these kids are more likely to flip when faced with hard time vs those who have a record/in deep. The reckless driving is absolutely a risk, but if letting the kids off leaves breadcrumbs to gang activity or organized crime, I wouldn't put it past 12 to play the slow game, esp if they suspect them of using the cars to carry out more serious offenses. I'm sure there is a bigger agenda at play.... honestly its a damn depressing documentary. The kids clearly have no guidance, and I hope they are able to see they are getting played by people who don't give a damn about them. SMHwhen you're young and low on
Kia hunter with the Amish beard and sword is easy to poke fun at, but he's at least involved in his community, it seems at personal cost and risk. So kudos.
for real tho the guy should be trying to reach out to the kia boyz to offer that guidence role model experience andrew talked about. wonder why he aint doin that
Man it got me seeing that dog mom sticker and all the cheesy interior decorations on that kia they stole. Really makes you realize that there’s a real person on the other end of this who uses that car on a daily basis and cared enough to decorate it. Also, I laughed at sword guy initially because of the whole mall ninja shtick he has going on, but his story is so real and I’m happy to see him trying to make his community a better place, even if he’s kinda goofy about it. There’s something uniquely human in corniness.

Connecticut has a "No Chase" law that says officers must terminate a chase if it becomes too dangerous. So I would assume chasing a car driving at 100+ mph at night with no lights thru residential streets would meet the threshold, these kids know it and are taking advantage of it
I mean,... These guys driving at all is too dangerous... Hell going outside is too dangerous... These kids need to be in a nice soft padded room somewhere.
I genuinely thought these guys were doing a spoof at the beginning! The way they're all masked up standing in the neighborhood saying "CT Kia boys, come get us" I figured that HAS to be a joke!
"Kia boys" left me abandoned in the cold when they stole my Hyundai in 0 deg F weather in Colorado. If it wasn't for the kindness of strangers helping me stay warm I would have been in trouble. Hope the police catch these criminals you interviewed.

The fact there are people out there who have no remorse or care how they affect people by stealing their car, really shows the lack of personal respect people like this have for themselves. My father's Kia was stolen two days after her brother died of cancer, he really had to put his grief to the side and deal with reporting it stolen, finding it, finding out the condition it was left in, and the back and forth with his insurance. Luckily his insurance did cover the loss of the car. But it really took an emotional impact on him.

A few years back we had a Kia that was broken into but luckily wasn’t stolen. We found a usb cord on the floor when we cleaned up the glass from the window. If you ask anyone here, someone knows someone who’s Kia/Hyundai has been stolen by these guys. It’s a serious problem. Thanks for your work bringing attention to this Andrew and Channel 5.

Also from CT. I cant even get insured without paying an exteeme premium, even after the software upgrade. Fuck these kids
It makes sense because people could easily set themselves up and make money from it lol
its everywhere.. I have a Stinger which was never even capable of being stolen by these methods and my insurance rates shot up like 20%

These kids are young, and 100$ seems like a lot at that age, & no social support makes them easy targets for manipulation. The cops are likely aware of this, & know these kids are more likely to flip when faced with hard time vs those who have a record/in deep.

Really makes you realize that there’s a real person on the other end of this who uses that car on a daily basis and cared enough to decorate it. Also, I laughed at sword guy initially because of the whole mall ninja shtick he has going on, but his story is so real and I’m happy to see him trying to make his community a better place, even if he’s kinda goofy about it. There’s something uniquely human in corniness.
I like how it goes from a normal video to Andrew just absolutely shitting on them
Rightly so. Such a pathetic way of life.
im a lamb type of guy 😅😂
@@frmdaninetyera95 lmfao he was goofy for that🤣
@@thesquad2253 He was halal for that*
The level of subtle sarcasm in the narration is fantastic
Subtle as a sledgehammer!
"they almost always spend that money on the dumbest shit imaginable" LOL
love the smooth, subtle humor in the monologs, the switches between professional TV-like commentary and "... or like rapping"
"a hundred bucks" lol
best of both worlds: proffesional and casual
I caught some theives one time trying to Steel my Harley , one of them will never walk again and the other has a permanent limp along with having to eat his food through a straw for a very very long time. Hope these KIA boys smarten up and read my comment .
You sound merciful. I don't know if I could hold back like that.
Hope you didn't get in trouble, you did the right thing.
@@rcman1023 nahhhh. All good here
As a CT resident this stuff has gotten REAL bad. Even in the "suburbs" where people think crimes like this don't happen
Fr car thefts were always bad but it is nonstop near new haven now
I'm in fairfield, neighbors Kia was lifted like 2 months ago. my unlocked (but dead battery) car was 20 feet away.
Chicago has devolved as well. I personally know 4 people who’ve been robbed at gunpoint since the start of this year just walking home after a night out. It’s in every neighborhood and spreading.
Still bad in Milwaukee too and it's spreading throughout the state.
Yuck Connecticut
Everyone one of these little goofballs will FOLD when that interrogation room finally hits. “Can I call my mom” type vibes for real.
theyre normal kids just having fun doing "bad" shit and theyre like 14-16 like tf do u expect? Only ones that dont fold were brought up in other areas with gangs n shit
@@Matiii555 doing “bad” things is going out to drink and party, not steal cars and doing this, there’s a big difference between having fun at your own expense and at others expense
@@Matiii555I expect them not to steal cars lmao it’s a pretty low expectation
They're making life harder for working people. They would get shot around here @@Matiii555

This is the greatest advertisement to NEVER buy a Kia or Hyundai that ive ever seen
This is where social media destroys our society. “Let’s bring awareness by showing kids how to steal a car easily” was a decision
It's just older models, still rather buy one than a Nazila
My mother has one yikes
The newer ones are fine. It's just the older ones.
That’s not what I learned to avoid from this video.
The shot of Kissinger completely floored me. Perfect surprise attack.
Connecticut has a "No Chase" law that says officers must terminate a chase if it becomes too dangerous. So I would assume chasing a car driving at 100+ mph at night with no lights thru residential streets would meet the threshold, these kids know it and are taking advantage of it
I mean,... These guys driving at all is too dangerous... Hell going outside is too dangerous... These kids need to be in a nice soft padded room somewhere.
I thought every state had some similar to that? It’s the same law in Chicago
Car chases almost never accomplish anything anyway
@@KpFriendly More like Chimpcago amirite
George Zimmerman type dude is something I can see happening in CT soon
Them dudes voices so high, sounds like they balls haven’t dropped. 😂
Yeah they are young teenagers.
they are at the oldest 16
No father.
that and huffing paint does that to your voice
U think a adult is gonna steak a car then sell it for 100 bucks?😂😂😂 these kids steal cars then are little babies who can't force a better price 😂😂😂
"The next time you see a kia, or a hyundai with a broken window and without a license plate, its probably stolen." lmao no shit
Brain cells jumping out of my head as that man speaks.
😂
Right??? 😂😂😂 and any other vehicle 😂😂😂
Ikr...it doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to figure that out lol
I genuinely thought these guys were doing a spoof at the beginning! The way they're all masked up standing in the neighborhood saying "CT Kia boys, come get us" I figured that HAS to be a joke!
39:19 $20 for a hangover trilogy DVD is the most criminal part of this video
Fr you can get that in the $5 bin at Target😂
Apparently in that neighborhood you could trade 5 Hangover trilogy DVDs for one Kia.
I mean it's getting close to what those idiots 'sell' those cars for. they should switched to stealing old DVDs.
agree, like you want to talk about some real robbery? that's atrocious
A lord of the rings box set costs more than a kia in CT. They are terrible businessmen.
What a bunch of losers. Flipping stolen cars for $100 is the definition of hustling backwards.
Risking years of their lives and their futures for fractions of a penny on the dollar.
they wouldnt even under stand the phrase "hustling backwards"
losers too arrogant to get a job. fuck it let em learn hard
To imagine they'd be making more working basically any actual job hurts so badly.
Black fatherless kids
Selling drugs is way more profitable and an actual business. These are the dumbest motherfuckers.
a vigilante with a ninja sword was not the plot twist I foresaw.
The dude is a tool and I grew up with this guy and he is a loser and did every crime imaginable
He proli tried to sell it for a bag of that shit n nobody wanted it😂😂
“I’m gettin dripped out”
Dude is wearing a $9 clearance rack ass champion jacket lmaoooo
U dumb if u think they don’t throw away all this clothes after this video.
Probably grabbed it at Ross dress for less and ran out the door
these are clearly their work clothes
They're kids mate relax
@@pa1ntedpretty sure they would have been dripped for this interview, doesn't even look like they could afford to make it to the pizza joint 🤣
Some of the best media coverage I’ve seen in a long time. Respect you for getting the full story
"Kia boys" left me abandoned in the cold when they stole my Hyundai in 0 deg F weather in Colorado. If it wasn't for the kindness of strangers helping me stay warm I would have been in trouble. Hope the police catch these criminals you interviewed.

Yea that was well said and on point.
That whole like was a bar 😂
And it’s true because I don’t recognize this sh@t and I’m neither ultra poor nor uber rich.
Connecticut finally known for something. Congrats to us.
The fact that Andrew got in that car with them at 110mph in a chase is utterly insane levels of commitment to journalism.
That's JUST journalism. Nothing more.
bare minimum expectation for a journalist tbh
That’s a commitment to sensationalism, that was fun without any real story value.
@@stockhumanthat’s gonzo journalism
Im so curious how he isnt considered complicate in the crime by doing so.
Fuck dude. I'm so glad you included that part about Kevins past at the end there. Really puts shit into perspective. Seems like a really, really heartfelt, kind person.
I'm really glad that they showed it. I could tell by his eyes (no disrespect) that he was a drug user at some point. At first I thought he was some weird wannabe cop but he's genuinely trying to make a change
It's a way to show us that the Kia boys featured in the video aren't lost causes too. They could eventually find a path out like Kevin did.
@@apaaaa no offense but in a functioning society these boys wouldn't feel the need to act out like this
@@christycullen2355 He would have been a great cop, but his criminal records prevented him, I feel that what he is doing, helping people the ways he know.

I can only hope that these kids read through these comments and smarten the f ck up.
That shit made me cry laughing
but what they spent the money on was valid though, clothes, food and gas basically is what they said which are necessities
90% is spent McDonald’s 😂
Real shit
"nah i be chilling forreal" is the craziest response to give when someone apologizes about hearing someone you loved pass.
ikr but its so revealing. Being unable to acknowledge the toll a loved ones death takes on your life by shrugging it off with an "nah I'm chillin" says a lot about your state of mind
I think he's not able to express what he really feels verbally. So he just says he's chillin to look "strong/cool". These are misguided youths. They still feel pain when they loose a loved one.
@@gen-zhippie2203 Yeah definitely. Just seeing how they talked about role models was pretty telling as well.
@@JONZGONZmaybe, but still, there’s nothing cool about being unaffected by the death of a close friend and also I see this all the time lmao it’s lose* not loose*
@@JONZGONZ Being emotionally vulnerable is probably one of the hardest things anyone can do in today's society since we put so much value into how we are being perceived by others. I don't blame them. I just hope they're able to find some sort of guidance or compassion from someone or within themselves.
