The female interrogator is not getting paid enough. She did an excellent job talking with everyone affected by this horrific crime, including the juvenile.
Yeah she did an amazing job with him. Holy shit! This case is disturbing and heartbreaking. Watching his dad when they were told, stabbed my heart. What is super disgusting and weird is the blackberry jelly, like whhhaaatttt????? It's complete bs that he's gonna have a chance at being paroled!! I hope there are still people around to go to these parole meetings and remind them of allllll of the nastiness that is Gavon.
I was on track at 17 to be this kid, it's the fact I had a mother who wasn't a pushover that set me straight. Enabling parents do huge amounts of harm.
Imagine being 98, you escaped death by accidents, illness, lived through world Wars, the great depression and more..so close to dying in your bed peacefully...only for a low life to do this to you. 🤦♀️
@@thatvalensteingirlYou're probably right but I don't remember him actually saying it made it their fault or absolved his guilt. I heard him say something like, "Know how you're told your whole life to lock your doors and windows at night? You should actually DO that. People will never know how many houses I simply passed over when the entrances were locked to simply find an easier, unlocked one nearby which there always is."
What the father says is so profound. " She was 98 years old and just living out her days .. and then there's😮😮😮 MY SON. You have all these fucked up people out here ... And it's my SON?!" Broke my heart
It's sad. Good normal people don't want their own children to grow up to be murderers they want them to be decent. Some people just don't have it good in life.
He’s also a victim did everyone just skip the fact he said he was raped as a kid …then turns to grinder to meet old men ..do shit for adrenaline..this is sad for him too he didn’t get the help he needed and this is the result of that. This is sad both ways RIP to that poor old lady
@@Tr0ublezz i know that, he was a very troubled kid for sure. i’m sad that he couldn’t/didn’t get help, i agree if he got help this wouldn’t have happened, but its happened and we can’t change anything
@@Tr0ublezz I was thinking the same thing, his mother should have put him in a mental institution or with a psychiatrist under medication, not just counseling. Also bravo for the physician that diagnosed him adhd when he's a psychopath
The way he said "It's their own fault for not locking the door" when talking about the cars, and knowing that Margaret left the door unlocked most of the time sent chills down my spine
Sounds like dark triad reasoning. The onus for their antisocial behaviour isn't on them to control and refrain from, but on everyone else to protect themselves against it. They're just an agent of chaos, minus the personal agency.
Amd the fact she tried to fight back and left defensive marks on the suspect. That was one tough granny. I can see it in her picture. She's tough as nails. If she was any younger, that kid may not have stood a chance.
What baffles me is why on earth she didn't lock the door? It blows my mind that there are people out there that don't lock their doors when there's all sorts of crazy people out there every generation.
If the door was locked he would have broken in. He had it all planned to do this. Premeditated planned out with video taping everything to watch later and relive this!
@@mattepperson6292idk if there was a killer that actually did this, but ik it’s a popular quote/scene from The Strangers. In that movie though, it was simply because they were home.
She was born in 1920 and was a young lady in the 40s. She was 43 when Kennedy was shot she was 50 in 1970. She was 70 years old in 1990 and 80 years old in 2000. She lived through some of the toughest and most wonderful times. She was a living legend and living history. She was so important to our society as a living piece of history. She obviously took care of herself and she, at 98 years old was attacked by a monster and she STILL left battle wounds on the monster. She was certainly one heck of a human being and this piece of dirt doesn't even need mentioning.
This right here!!! We let Margaret down, imagine spending an hour talking to this lady, we disregard them, think them old, what do they know? Society was at fault here too! All those neighbours?, nobody keeping an eye? Everyone minding their own business, what the hell have we become?😔
When asked “if she was sat here, what would you say to Margaret?” I could just feel him thinking “should have locked your doors”. He’s not sorry for hurting her, he’s sorry for ruining his life.
@@ccurrie9672 it does, they get to relive the experience while they're writing and know they'll be putting it into the mind of whoever reads it.. it's really a psychological power play, they control the narrative 100% . Narcs get really angry when you don't "follow the script" they have built in their minds about the way an interaction should go, this is a way for them to make sure you have exactly the information they want you to have
His response was what he thought he should say, not what he was really thinking. Even after explaining everything he did, he still felt the need to lie about his thoughts.
55.48. The father was so distraught of how his son could do this. He had remorse. Most parents would protect their children no matter what. He's a good father
Yeah senate was out of their mind for passing that bill. Original judge sentenced him to die in prison. Doesn’t mean he gets out in 25 years he goes to a parole board so hopefully the parole board keeps him in there
It's refreshing to see level headed parents. The dad's first thought was of the poor old lady and her terrifying last moments. In many of these videos the parents refuse to believe their kid did anything wrong
The mother is weird to me. I understand those who say she's in shock but th fact that she answered for her child at the begining (both my parents would have pressure me in such a situation), her no reaction when detectives tells her the truth (that she seems to have anticipated from the begining) the fact that when her husband is tearing up describing what his son did she has no f ing reaction, this is so weird to me. Maybe she is a very strong woman holding it up for her family, but that's something I don't understand (Sry for mystakes, english is not my mother tongue)
@@Benalla_1erI don’t think you can judge on a person’s first reaction. A feeling of unreality can overcome people at times like this. Call it shock or whatever, but they’re disconnected from what’s happening while their brains are trying to process.
@@Benalla_1eryou must be blind and deaf because she had pretty verbal reactions bud, fucking internet weirdos always trying to be armchair psychologists
I don't understand this, the last video I watched a 18 year old who killed his girlfriend got like 50 years, and wasn't nearly as horrible as this situation
and perfectly capable of picking up where he left off, and plenty of time to go over ways to better cover his tracks. he’s eligible for parole is not a guarantee he will get it, but he’s white and they need the bed for another innocent police victim who just-walked.
Imagine living to the age of 98 and seeing everything and experiencing all that she did. Then to have your life snuffed out by some psychotic teenager. What an absolute travesty.
Theyre mentally very messed up. Id say they are born without functioning amygdalas that part of the brain for empathy. He was in councelling told his councellors this stuff and they should have svanned his brain to see if he was a psychopath and put him in a secure mental hospital to try to treat him and keep the world safe. Somone without empathy is a threat to everyone. If he had covid he would be locked up to save the granny but hes got a messed uo brain and nobody even does anything about it?
He seems pretty tortured. It’s sad. Clearly his parents were trying to protect him from himself. Too bad for all of us that they were unsuccessful. As a parent I don’t know what I’d do with a child who just makes such poor decisions and knows it.
@@crazychase98 I can’t speak as to what he cared about, other than to say that he clearly loved the adrenaline rush more. He clearly knew that he was stuck on what he calls the darkness. He knows that he is different from other people and he’s struggling not to be what he appears to be.
This crime has scared me. I have a lil old lady that lives alone in my neighborhood. I am always on her about making sure her doors are locked. I have a zero tolerance for people who hurt children, old people and animals.
stay in touch with them, it’s seems the one through line with all these crimes is the only way they get solved is the friendly neighbor who always checks up on them.
My neighbor has dementia and his family have to lock him in at night which is dangerous but otherwise he would be wandering. He opened the window and was shouting that he was starving ..he wasn't he is well fed three times a day and he is out during the day sitting on his bench talking to neighbours. Unfortunately his family live a block over so we all keep an eye out for him. We all deserve a safe world where elderly people and kids can wander around and not be murdered though.
I have a 98-year-old neighbor and a 93-year-old grandmother. I watch over them like they are my children. If anybody comes for them, they will have to go through me. It breaks my heart what happened to this amazing woman. I hope that monster never has a peaceful moment in his life again. Margaret, you are missed. Rest in peace.
Imagine, at 98 she was still able to live completely by herself. Very impressive. And then a teenage serial killer in the making does the most terrible things to her. The devil is truly walking among us.
Nah, not even Satan would do something this fucked up. You gotta remember he punishes bad people. The boy did all this on his own, his own actions. So when he does die, if there is a heaven, hell or whatever, he will be suffering for what he's done.
True. May not be the same situation but when my grandma died, my body didn't feel much for the first week or two before i actually brgan feeling sad. The bodz just doesn't know what to do
Then she must’ve wanted him stopped because allowing someone you love to be interrogated without a lawyer (especially if you suspect guilt) is as good as handing them over
It’s a little off topic but we really need to stop with the over use of the words “like” and “literally”. Half the time I lose concentration on what someone is saying because I can’t stop hearing those words. Even as he’s telling his story and crying during admitting, I couldn’t listen.
@@yourlifeisagreatstory teens say "like" and "litterally" alot. Plus he was out on the spot so the words are kind of lost. Either way, this is terrible, rest in peace Margaret Douglas...😞
I thought that also! ("Can't express his emotions" is shrink talk -- wonder where he picked that up!) He probably had some counseling, as some of his sentences indicate.
@@yourlifeisagreatstory those are just filler words like "um" and "uh". They have been used as long as people have communicated. Some people use them more than others, and more often depending on the situation (being very stressed or confused). It's not going to ever stop, you might as well accept that.
Given he was breaking cerfew and wouldn't have wanted to risk waking his parents up do you think he jumped in the shower to frantically wash the jam off his dong or did he just go straight to bed?
Really? This is typical behaviour of someone trying to cover their tracks. Makes 100% sense preventing his mom finding out he had snuck out was his priority, as that was the first person likely to tie him to the murder.
@@maccthelab5165 Too many are quick to blame the parents but each child/person has free will to choose whom they will be. History and the Bible has recorded numerous excellent parents who had evil children.
@@ape2183I mean he had a huge rap sheet already. She seemed so dismissive like “oh it’s just another one”. She’s such a massive failure she’s as creepy as he is.
@@Magnetar_Haunt I more so meant it’s crazy how sometimes you never really know people, even your own children. It’s terrifying. I wasn’t saying she was aware of what he was doing, that’s why it’s so crazy to me. Because you never know..
@@jennnna5150, I dont know how that person thought your comment sounded as if she knew it was her son, I knew what you meant and didnt get that feeling from the comment. Weird.
Only a jerk or a criminal would say his robbery of a vehicle is the vehicle owner's fault for not locking the car. That is a disturbing messed up way of thinking.
He blamed the lady he murdered for not locking her door. He has the darkness in him because he invited it in. He remains in the darkness because he enjoys doing evil perverse things.
i knew there was something wrong with him when he first said that. That's how a leftist thinks with their "peaceful protests" and anyone who defends them.
It's always interesting to me when a parent thinks their child's friend is the one causing problems. Nope, it's YOUR kid that the other kid should stay away from.
Maybe. ...or maybe it IS the other kid. ...or maybe it's BOTH kids. As an undiagnosed and over-drugged autistic kid, I had a lot of "behavioral issues" and got in a fair amount of big trouble as a preteen and early teenager. Sometimes I was the bad influence on my friend. Sometimes my friends were a bad influence on me. Sometimes my friends and I were getting in trouble together because we were all "bad". (which was the case most of the time) Not all parents are in denial just because this one particular mom is. ...and when it does happen, it's really not that surprising. Accepting that your own child is a monster has to be one of the hardest psychological mountains to climb. Love and denial are *VERY* powerful emotions - especially when they're mixed with a traumatic event.
Lmao yea she didn’t want him hanging around braden, meanwhile the entire time her son was writing all these different scenarios in his journal of him murdering braden 😭😭😭
It's there for the mental health background, I have adhd and severe depression. Everyone knows that adhd and depression doesnt mean that we kill people, but sadly it does increase the chances
@@bobby9192thats ridiculous so your saying anyone could go to jail for killing everyone and if they found religion they could be released back into the wild
I keep reminding my 86-yr old mother to lock doors before going to bed. She said but our neighborhood is safe. I said there is no safe neighborhood. Thrill killers are out there looking for opportunities.
My dad as well he been robbed a few times bc the neighbor knows he don’t lock doors his excuse we never had to lock doors which I remember the doors always being open when my grandparents was alive
@@hideriplays2626 I would especially lock our doors if we lived somewhere remote. At least in a city or town, the law of plenty [of houses] dilutes the chance that they may randomly pick your house, but in the middle of nowhere yours is the only one.
It’s crazy to me that people don’t keep their doors locked at all times. I’ve seen posts from others on Nextdoor about how some random person just walked into their home. No thanks. My doors stay locked regardless of the time of day.
The father’s reaction to finding out is a perfect example of what real emotion looks like in response to this type of situation. Even though the person who committed the horrible crime was his son, the first person he showed concern for was the woman.
Yes, compared to his mum. I know she was in shock but she seemed more bothered that her son would go to prison for murder rather than brutally taking a person’s life like her husband’s reaction was.
Ok….AND? No matter wtf he did or does THATS. HER. BABY. PERIOD. You OBVIOUSLY dont even have kids to speak about how her emotions should or shouldn’t be shown….. IDGAF what my daughter does ill NEVER disown her and i can guarantee id NEVVVER EVVER leave her side NO MATTER WHAAT … Have children before u think u can pass judgment on HER emotions
This young man is THE definition of a sociopath and he would not have stopped if he was not caught. My heart hurts for the victim's family/friends and even Gavon's parents.
@@octogirl2046 she didn't know. she had the killer living in her home all along thinking the danger came from outside. that's why it hits differently when she found out.
That poor, poor woman. Imagine surviving nearly a century. Surviving the Great Depression, WWII, The Cold War....only to have your life snuffed out in the worst way. God bless her.
Gavon did say that he had sexual contact when he was younger that was against his will. Most serial killers are abused in some form when they're kids, which leads them to sociopathy and psycopathy.
Or sometimes they are just born like that. Sociopaths are expert and chronic liars.... my thought when he said that was that it was another attempt to gain the detective's sympathy and excuse his own behavior.
Many children are sexually abused but do not become psychopaths or abusers themselves. Sociopaths are born that way, but only a small percentage of them go on to become psychopaths or serial killers. I'm sure abuse is a factor, but it's not the only cause.
He sobbed like a baby because he "ruined his life" and not the fact he tortured and murdered an innocent elderly woman. I will never understand how anyone can believe a criminal's crocodile tears. The only person a murderer cries for is himself.
@@bridgetonowhere I was listening while I was grocery shopping, and people must have been looking ay me funny bc my facial expressions were all over the place. I may have even been responding out loud 😂 My reaction at the very end when he basically asked “how long am I gonna be in jail?” ???? Omg the gasp that came out of my mouth 😱😠😤
Speaking for myself, I’m like, “Yeah, get it out of your system so they can take your punk ass to prison. You don’t want the homies to see you crying…but stay tuned. They are gonna LOVE you when they find out what you did. And they will find out…”
That is one messed up kid. Knowing your child was a sociopath like this kid would be beyond heartbreaking. He’s a serial killer who just hadn’t made it to victim 2.
@@Wintersesr I think the logic is pretty obvious. In both cases we are accounting murders that never happened. That makes him a serial killer and that makes the rest of us murderers. Anyway I understand what you meant. I agree he would have kill again.
@@davidrele I am not the one accounting people with murders they never commited... I just apply what she did to him to the rest of us. Oh suddenly it is not right? 😅 It's always the same hateful comments after those videos. What about learning decency from that great empathetic female cop in the video?
The parents will always be known as the parents that raised a murderer. Kids have a reasonable expectation of privacy of their personal belongings, but I do not think there are any laws that protect them from their at home parents "invading their privacy." If something seems off with them behaviorally or emotionally, you want to investigate, keep in mind if they find out, it could destroy any trust they have in you. But finding a journal of death, could save their life and more importantly, an innocent victim.
No logic. No common-sense. I am disgusted and horrified beyond measure. 😢 The parents, I just cannot imagine. 💔 I hope they stay strong and be there for each-other. Complete sociopathic-psychopath! Glad he got caught so young! Keep your doors and windows locked 🔒! What a horrific way to leave this world. That poor woman 😭!
His father though.. his reaction was hard to watch. It’s crazy to see the contrast between him and his son who only expressed grief for himself for “ruining his life” meanwhile his father is crying for his son, and the innocent 98 year old women that his child murdered and violated and probably blaming himself.
The mother is lost. Her heart is broken, she doesn't know how to process and grieve this situation. It's very hard to navigate, so dont sit there and judge herbehind a screen based on how you THINK she should react. You have no ideawhat shes going through.@bernicezappala7958
@@bernicezappala7958 Yeah, that's what I took away the most. I wonder if some of what Gavin might be genetic from his mom's side or perhaps there were things that happened between him and his mom growing up too.
I don't understand her reaction either but she did say that she couldn't cry. That I understand. When told my daughter died unexpectedly I became frozen. I couldn't cry. It took a few hours before I let out a scream and cried my heart out. Maybe this happened to her although I have a feeling that the notion her son could be involved probably passed through her mind. My condolences to Margaret's family and friends.
Teenagers who have done less have been given a much longer sentence than he got! He's not crying out of remorse, he's crying for himself. He's whining about he's ruined his life. What about the poor woman's life he took. He should never come out of prison!
As well as taking somebodies life and wrecking their families life. He has wrecked his own families life as well. Mother Father and Siblings. He knows it was wrong and still went ahead with all of his stupid childish actions. No personnel responsibility. You can bring up your children as correctly as you can but this is one troubled individual. He spoke of an unwarranted sexual incident visited on himself when he was younger that needs further investigation as well.
He’s only concerned about costing his parents money and his consequences of going to court and screwing up his life not that he murdered a near centurion ? We need to teach respect and moral fortitude stronger and younger
Hopefully you're not a single mother. Boys will be boys is reality, single moms think Adderall and other drugs are the answer, no, the answer is boys AREN'T girls. Stop trying to make them into something they're not.
@@blancabulgrin5560 He's still very much a child. The age of adults needs to be raised bc certain parts of the brain aren't fully developed until mid 20s. The part of the brain behind the forehead, called the prefrontal cortex, is one of the last parts to mature. This area is responsible for skills like planning, prioritizing, and making good decisions; allows us to process the pros and cons of a decision before it is made.
"If the door would've been locked I would've just walked away" and that is the exact reasons why I keep my doors locked even during the daylight hours.
She got to 98 without locking her doors, must have seen some stuff in her lifetime and some wee git comes along and hurts the most vulnerable in our society. Imagine spending an hour in conversation with her? We have a responsibility! We let Margaret down too. 😞 RIP Margaret
was gunna say. I know loads of people with both and the worst they act is tired so i know they having a bad time. Some of them its self induced and they act like it isn't. For example they sat playing computer games throught their teens, 20s and 30s then spend all day on social media, they have zero hobbies or purpose and it grinds them out to a point they are depressed but its by their own doing. I feel like shaking them and throwing there phone away and telling them to get a hobby for goodness sakes..know what i mean its like obvious some of them just need to be more productive even going fishing
You would never understand that cause you're not in their situation but I understand that, no offend to what am going to say. I have a mental illness too, and sometimes because of anger, I want to break something hurting mys3lf but everytime I do that I feel not satisfied till it comes to my thoughts to try it out to anyone, torture them and kill anyone but still am holding myself.

Why is this so surprising to anyone? His journal entries and admissions clearly show that he lacks empathy and compassion for others. Self-preservation, such as being upset and worried about ruining his own life, isn’t uncommon, even in people who are sociopaths, psychopaths (which are two different things, despite being used interchangeably), narcissists, or have personality disorders. They don’t feel emotions for others but will feel sorry for themselves and do anything to save themselves. They also care about how they’re perceived by others. For example, Gavin mentions his family being embarrassed and humiliated, which is why he doesn’t want to admit to the acts of sexual assault. I don’t understand why people are upset or stunned that he doesn't know about his victim when he clearly states in his journals that he doesn’t care about his victims but doesn’t want to be in prison forever. Instead of being insulted at how he doesn’t feel bad he committed bad and asking why it happened, ask how it happened. This is much more complex than simply being "born that way," which we know isn't true in this case. It's also harder for children with these tendencies, thoughts, and disorders to hide them. He didn’t show any signs of sociopathic behavior before puberty, and there’s a reason it started after puberty. It wasn't because he was born that way; it was due to his psyche being warped by external influences. And I could get into them but unless it’s complex and complicated so unless people are actually interested in the pathology of perpetrators such as Gavin and not just pulling the “oh no, he’s so evil and etc and I’m so disturbed and blah blah blah” but never want to actually explore how cases like this happened.

I can't imagine how scared that poor woman must have been in her final moments of her life. She deserved to pass peacefully at the end of an impressively long life; instead she was robbed by a psychopath. I'm very close with my grandma and this situation just made me truly sad to watch
If your grandparents live alone or they don't live in a safe area then everyone should at least get them a ring doorbell or minimal security system. It's really not that expensive and it's worth doing especially if they leave their doors unlocked or something like that. Such a minimal deterant might have been enough to keep Gavon from breaking in her home that night if he knew there were cameras but we will sadly never know.
This was the right detective to interrogate him. A soft spoken mom vibe. She did a great job. Editing bc I just saw where the guy detective got in the floor with him. That was also a good move. A calm “I understand” vibe was the right way to approach him

Gavin and bradon are definitely gay together, that was my first thought, they were looking for a place to do gay things, trying to hide it from their family
Handling these entitled YT teens with kid gloves is why there are so many more like him that will evade detection. The parents did it,the Mom was especially oblivious, and then to top it all off, the cops do the same baby-voice coddling.

It must be so hard to fight their natural instincts and stay calm when knowing the kind of people they’re dealing with
@@ems342exactly and its always been this way. There were hard interrogators and yes mostly made suspects shut down. Thats why they have done studies on actual serial killers and ways to talk to them. It must feel disgusting to have to talk so nice to a POS knowing what they have potentially done. Also just yelling or being too harsh and over the top in interrogations can lead to a lawyer seeking to suppress it because they can claim they were intimidated into confessing.
I mean he’s a white young boy. So sure they gave him sweet white privilege. Bye. If a black child murdered a innocent white woman. Highly doubt they’d be on the floor consoling him. So anyways. No one cares about his white tears. RIP to the innocent woman.
A word of advice from somebody who had a similar aged grandmother. Cherish the fact she's still with you. Call her tonight. It may not seem like much in the moment, but it'll mean the world to her, and to you down the line.
My great gramma is 94, and I can't imagine someone doing something so vile to her. If I was Gavon's sister or a female relative, would've needed a drink after finding out my own flesh and blood could do something so vile.
I just lost my Granny a few weeks ago. She had been slowly dying the previous month. I meant to call her several times, but I usually work nights so I’m asleep during the day. I could’ve made time but that time just flew by and by the time I finally picked up the phone she was already gone mentally and unable to talk. My sister passed away at 17yrs old and my stepdad passed away a few years ago. I always meant to call but my excuse was “things are busy.” DO NOT MAKR MY MISTAKE. Call your loved ones, hug them, say “I love you”… because you can never get that time back. That five minutes to take a break is far better than the time you’ll spend regretting not taking it.
@@yourlifeisagreatstory This happened to me, too. My grandmother was always very sickly. I came back home after a long trip as an exchange student in a different country, and meant to call her a billion times but never did. Not long after I arrived we got a call that she had a stroke and she passed away shortly after. I wish I had called her.
That male detective did an amazing job mirroring Gavin. He helped in easing the anxiety of the suspect. He knew the female detective was doing an excellent job with the interrogation and played his part as support to the best of his abilities. His transition from each posture was smooth and timed well so as not to seem like he was forcing it or imitating the suspect in a mocking manner.
@Brando-wc8fz she's in shock, she would have so many thoughts going on in her head for that poor old lady that family and knowing that her own child did it.

You can see when she called older son to go out so they don't have trauma from police going through the house. I mean even after vid I do not know what I would odbeside being numb from shock. Poor family from both sides and old woman....
He will not be released in 25. He admitted it himself that he can't control himself. But hopefully lots of people show up for Margaret & speak on her behalf at his parole hearing. He doesn't deserve to ever breathe fresh air again in his lifetime.
@@AndyDrake-FOOKYT Thanks to open borders we have horrors like this walking around everywhere. Please be careful. Other countries, to save money, have literally emptied their prisons and sent them over to the USA and Europe.
@@AndyDrake-FOOKYT He won’t be released after 25 years. Is has absolutely nothing to do with faith in the system but because he was not ONLY just sentenced “to life with a possibility of parole after 25”, he was conhvicted of two other charges, one of which he was sentenced to 60 years for, he has to serve the eternity of that sentence plus the 40 years on his conviction. He was not given the possibility of parole in either one of his other sentences. So, even if he was the best, most well behaved, angel of an inmate, hne’s still not making that 25 year parole date. And so that leaves us with him being 18 when sentenced so, 78 years old when he finally finishes his mandatory sentence. So sure, maybe he’ll win parole then. Although that 16 year old will be long gone and in his place, you have frail, unhealthy geriatrics living in a high stress environment which is where the average age of long term inmates is usually 63-65 years. I wouldn’t worry myself. He’s not getting out anytime soon, probably never. The possibility of parole is JUST that only a possibility and just helps keep long term inmates serving life in line since you have to have a near spotless record to get it. Everything goes together.
These officers were some of the best Ive ever seen. The woman was so caring and non judgmental and the man got down on the floor to the kids level. They really did a great job of getting the perpetrator comfortable.
Because it’s true. He doesn’t make his family feel proud. He’s been a criminal for years now and on top of it, he’s being disrespectful to the officers by swearing. As a parent you are supposed to tell your child to speak with respect when talking to authority. What’s wrong with that? Is she supposed to coddle him when he’s just been caught for ANOTHER crime? I’m sure this pity party is nothing new. If he felt so bad then he’d actually do things to make his family proud, but he doesn’t cause he only cares when he gets caught.
@@candyd.4398 you think scolding him on his language would make him a better person at that moment?

He’s a sociopath. Everything he says is pretty much the exact definition of what a sociopath is. Breaks rules and laws, behaves aggressively or impulsively, feels little guilt for harm they cause others, feels no empathy towards others, knows wrong from right. It’s exactly him.

Classic sociopath, only concerned for himself, zero regard for his victim, no impulse control and no accountability. Even blaming a 98yo woman for leaving her door unlocked.
This story sickens me because I’m thinking of this poor elderly lady who should be given respect and dignity in her later years, instead was treated like trash. The kid should definitely serve LIFE.
As a father myself I could feel that man’s pain. It’s something I fear a lot, the realization that you failed as a parent in the worst way and your child took the life of an innocent person and violated them afterwards. This is a great lesson for all fathers to always keep an open dialogue with your children and never assume they’re going thru a “phase”.
@@JPCollier that’s trauma for you. The disbelief and unwillingness to accept your own child who you’ve raised for the past 17 years is capable of murdering someone in cold blood and engaging in necrophilia. I don’t think anybody can say for sure how they would react in that situation unless they experienced it themselves.
Please, people - lock your doors! This is not the 50s anymore with the “our neighborhood is so safe we never lock the doors to our house” approach anymore. Set up a Ring or two, lock the doors, the windows, everything.
I completely agree, there's a reason women would rather run into a bear in the woods than a Man with bad intentions. And trust me, those people DO live in your communities
This is just heartbreaking all around. The boy is obviously suffering mentally. It's unfortunate that he couldn't get/find the help that he needed to prevent this tragedy.
Same, I see all these comments about how he's a sociopath, but that doesn't seem the case at all. I hate watching true crime stuff because it's always just hyper-depressing like this. I only watched this because of morbid curiosity and now I regret it. Watching lives get ruined in isn't fun at all, even when the person deserves it.
I watched this while holding my 2 year old son as he naps😭 I cannot begin to imagine. He was once a little toddler in his mama's arms😢. How does that even happen!?
As he’s in tears: ‘It doesn’t change the fact I’ve ruined MY life’ - the fact he ONLY seems upset about the consequences and not what he actually did to this poor elderly woman just shows he has 0 remorse for it. Another narcissist. The pain in that dad’s voice is so heartbreaking
A many of them will never hurt anyone. So please, don't blame all of them coz some of them are doing crimes. You know that they didn't wanted or decided to born that way and it's NOT their fault that they did. I'm not defending this dude or anyone who harms others BUT NOT ALL OF THEM ARE CRIMINALS, KILLERS AND DANGEROUS!! educate yourself a bit please before you are labeling all of them as a monsters.

@@jack1d1XB it is, because this is disgusting. I don't want anyone to think I was supporting him. But when you hear someone got a "life sentence" it doesn't automatically mean life in prison.
I don’t believe anyone who preys on the vulnerable whether it’s children, the elderly or handicapped/disabled people can be rehabilitated. Not everyone deserves to be free and not everyone deserves to live.
He had to commir crimes to feel anything. Clearly he had a biological issue or simply wired differently due to childhood trauma or neglect. Having to break laws and commit crimes just to "feel" alive... Yeah. People like him are ticking time bombs. Luckily he is locked up at 16 and can't hurt anymore people
@@heatherbukowski2102 You're under the impression that the US justice system, has anything to remotely do with "rehabilitation". That said in 25 years, he's not going to be the same person. His brain isn't even fully developed now, and nothing says he will even get parole in 25 years.
People express emotions differently. I bet she was just fed up with her kid breaking the law so many times. Shouldn’t be blaming the parent for a kid’s decisions.
im kinda thinking you guys in the west would be much safer if you lived in apartments instead of houses..i mean in my town in eastern europe its safe anyway, no violent crimes whatsoever but we still prefer living in apartment buildings, locked building door with a code and you have 20+ families living all around you in the same building so people are usualy avoiding braking in an apartment...but maybe im wrong..
@@darkodarko9Does your Eastern European village have 1m+ people in it? No? And will victimizing other villagers get you ostracized? Yes? Then there's why crime is so low. 😊❤

It's not always about the stranger, sometimes psychopaths can be living next to you and you'd be nonthewiser unless they have a record AND you utilise laws to go through a process to prove you should see those records for your own safety. Ontop of that anyone can get the code or be buzzed in so it's only secure if the neighbours are all good and quiet.

BEST COMMENT 😭
This comment deserves more likes.
She was born in 1920 and was a young lady in the 40s. She was 43 when Kennedy was shot she was 50 in 1970. She was 70 years old in 1990 and 80 years old in 2000. She lived through some of the toughest and most wonderful times. She was a living legend and living history. She was so important to our society as a living piece of history. She obviously took care of herself and she, at 98 years old was attacked by a monster and she STILL left battle wounds on the monster. She was certainly one heck of a human being and this piece of dirt doesn't even need mentioning.

Clearly the mom knew that murder was a real possibility with her child, which I'm sure explains aloofness. Her mind was prolly going a mile a minute.
Then she must’ve wanted him stopped because allowing someone you love to be interrogated without a lawyer (especially if you suspect guilt) is as good as handing them over
For someone who “can’t express his emotions” he certainly cried a friggin river for himself!
It’s a little off topic but we really need to stop with the over use of the words “like” and “literally”. Half the time I lose concentration on what someone is saying because I can’t stop hearing those words. Even as he’s telling his story and crying during admitting, I couldn’t listen.

@@yourlifeisagreatstory those are just filler words like "um" and "uh". They have been used as long as people have communicated.

You kill someone and then realize you have to be home before your mom wakes up and you don't want to get in trouble. Madness.

Really? This is typical behaviour of someone trying to cover their tracks. Makes 100% sense preventing his mom finding out he had snuck out was his priority, as that was the first person likely to tie him to the murder.
He wasn't worried about getting in trouble with his mom. He was worried about maintaining his alibi that he was at home and asleep during the murder.
There are times as a parent when your child stops being your child and instead becomes a complete stranger. This is one of those times.

Mum was totally overwhelmed. Couldn't process or even understand it. She was numb.
Been there.
It's always interesting to me when a parent thinks their child's friend is the one causing problems. Nope, it's YOUR kid that the other kid should stay away from.
Exactly
Maybe. ...or maybe it IS the other kid. ...or maybe it's BOTH kids. As an undiagnosed and over-drugged autistic kid, I had a lot of "behavioral issues" and got in a fair amount of big trouble as a preteen and early teenager. Sometimes I was the bad influence on my friend. Sometimes my friends were a bad influence on me. Sometimes my friends and I were getting in trouble together because we were all "bad". (which was the case most of the time)
Not all parents are in denial just because this one particular mom is. ...and when it does happen, it's really not that surprising. Accepting that your own child is a monster has to be one of the hardest psychological mountains to climb. Love and denial are *VERY* powerful emotions - especially when they're mixed with a traumatic event.

@kanwal6310 such a wee shame. Ik he said he wouldn't have went into the hpise if it wasn't locked. But I doubt that coming from him
Gavon did say that he had sexual contact when he was younger that was against his will.
Most serial killers are abused in some form when they're kids, which leads them to sociopathy and psycopathy.
Thank you, I noticed this too
@b.channa. Obviously doesn't excuse what he did but it is notable.
I was surprised that the investigators didn´t ask more on that one.
Or sometimes they are just born like that. Sociopaths are expert and chronic liars.... my thought when he said that was that it was another attempt to gain the detective's sympathy and excuse his own behavior.
Many children are sexually abused but do not become psychopaths or abusers themselves. Sociopaths are born that way, but only a small percentage of them go on to become psychopaths or serial killers. I'm sure abuse is a factor, but it's not the only cause.
He sobbed like a baby because he "ruined his life" and not the fact he tortured and murdered an innocent elderly woman. I will never understand how anyone can believe a criminal's crocodile tears. The only person a murderer cries for is himself.

Like every narcissist ever. He's too young to have learned how to disguise that fact.
The parents will always be known as the parents that raised a murderer. Kids have a reasonable expectation of privacy of their personal belongings, but I do not think there are any laws that protect them from their at home parents "invading their privacy." If something seems off with them behaviorally or emotionally, you want to investigate, keep in mind if they find out, it could destroy any trust they have in you. But finding a journal of death, could save their life and more importantly, an innocent victim.

That's all the lie. He doesn't care about his mom or anyone.

Agree with you completely, Isabella.
He was sentenced to life. Later a law changed that makes him able to apply for release after 25 years.
As well as taking somebodies life and wrecking their families life. He has wrecked his own families life as well. Mother Father and Siblings. He knows it was wrong and still went ahead with all of his stupid childish actions. No personnel responsibility. You can bring up your children as correctly as you can but this is one troubled individual. He spoke of an unwarranted sexual incident visited on himself when he was younger that needs further investigation as well.
He’s only concerned about costing his parents money and his consequences of going to court and screwing up his life not that he murdered a near centurion ? We need to teach respect and moral fortitude stronger and younger

"I' ve ruined MY life" after ruining the life of the victim, the victim's family and their own family.
Why is this so surprising to anyone? His journal entries and admissions clearly show that he lacks empathy and compassion for others. Self-preservation, such as being upset and worried about ruining his own life, isn’t uncommon, even in people who are sociopaths, psychopaths (which are two different things, despite being used interchangeably), narcissists, or have personality disorders. They don’t feel emotions for others but will feel sorry for themselves and do anything to save themselves. They also care about how they’re perceived by others. For example, Gavin mentions his family being embarrassed and humiliated, which is why he doesn’t want to admit to the acts of sexual assault.
I don’t understand why people are upset or stunned that he doesn't know about his victim when he clearly states in his journals that he doesn’t care about his victims but doesn’t want to be in prison forever.
Instead of being insulted at how he doesn’t feel bad he committed bad and asking why it happened, ask how it happened. This is much more complex than simply being "born that way," which we know isn't true in this case. It's also harder for children with these tendencies, thoughts, and disorders to hide them. He didn’t show any signs of sociopathic behavior before puberty, and there’s a reason it started after puberty. It wasn't because he was born that way; it was due to his psyche being warped by external influences. And I could get into them but unless it’s complex and complicated so unless people are actually interested in the pathology of perpetrators such as Gavin and not just pulling the “oh no, he’s so evil and etc and I’m so disturbed and blah blah blah” but never want to actually explore how cases like this happened.

I just lost my Granny a few weeks ago. She had been slowly dying the previous month. I meant to call her several times, but I usually work nights so I’m asleep during the day. I could’ve made time but that time just flew by and by the time I finally picked up the phone she was already gone mentally and unable to talk. My sister passed away at 17yrs old and my stepdad passed away a few years ago. I always meant to call but my excuse was “things are busy.” DO NOT MAKR MY MISTAKE.

His transition from each posture was smooth and timed well so as not to seem like he was forcing it or imitating the suspect in a mocking manner.
I came here to say the same thing. Great tag team between the two officers.
The fact that I thought: the guy didn't do anything until the end.
He wasnt there to support her, he was there to support him and get him speaking
His counselor heard psychopathic ideas and diagnosted it as ADHD and depression?!
His dad's reaction cut me, 98 years old living out her days and his son did this. That would be soul destroying
They will never be the same. My deepest condolences to all.
Thats just it…. The father’s emotion. Have you seen his mother? She had ZERO emotion. That woman scares me.
@@Brando-wc8fz she's in shock.
@Brando-wc8fz she's in shock, she would have so many thoughts going on in her head for that poor old lady that family and knowing that her own child did it.
@Brando-wc8fz she was shocked and probably still hopping he didn't do it. Hope always dies last. Then she had 2 more kids to think of, she didn't want them to know yet. You can see when she called older son to go out so they don't have trauma from police going through the house. I mean even after vid I do not know what I would odbeside being numb from shock. Poor family from both sides and old woman....
He will not be released in 25. He admitted it himself that he can't control himself. But hopefully lots of people show up for Margaret & speak on her behalf at his parole hearing. He doesn't deserve to ever breathe fresh air again in his lifetime.
I'm glad that you have so much faith in our criminal justice system.
@@AndyDrake-FOOKYT Thanks to open borders we have horrors like this walking around everywhere. Please be careful. Other countries, to save money, have literally emptied their prisons and sent them over to the USA and Europe.
it shouldn't even be an option. states need to stop passing this type of bullshit legislation, especially in regards to murder.
@@AndyDrake-FOOKYT
He won’t be released after 25 years. Is has absolutely nothing to do with faith in the system but because he was not ONLY just sentenced “to life with a possibility of parole after 25”, he was conhvicted of two other charges, one of which he was sentenced to 60 years for, he has to serve the eternity of that sentence plus the 40 years on his conviction. He was not given the possibility of parole in either one of his other sentences.
So, even if he was the best, most well behaved, angel of an inmate, hne’s still not making that 25 year parole date. And so that leaves us with him being 18 when sentenced so, 78 years old when he finally finishes his mandatory sentence. So sure, maybe he’ll win parole then. Although that 16 year old will be long gone and in his place, you have frail, unhealthy geriatrics living in a high stress environment which is where the average age of long term inmates is usually 63-65 years.
I wouldn’t worry myself. He’s not getting out anytime soon, probably never. The possibility of parole is JUST that only a possibility and just helps keep long term inmates serving life in line since you have to have a near spotless record to get it. Everything goes together.
These officers were some of the best Ive ever seen. The woman was so caring and non judgmental and the man got down on the floor to the kids level. They really did a great job of getting the perpetrator comfortable.
"I dont feel like i've ever made them proud. I don't do anything fucking good"
"stop cussing"
WHAT LMAO THATS ALL YOU HAD TO SAY TO THAT
Because it’s true. He doesn’t make his family feel proud. He’s been a criminal for years now and on top of it, he’s being disrespectful to the officers by swearing. As a parent you are supposed to tell your child to speak with respect when talking to authority. What’s wrong with that? Is she supposed to coddle him when he’s just been caught for ANOTHER crime? I’m sure this pity party is nothing new. If he felt so bad then he’d actually do things to make his family proud, but he doesn’t cause he only cares when he gets caught.
@@candyd.4398 you think scolding him on his language would make him a better person at that moment? He's already going to jail and that statement was an attempt to open up about why he did what he did, but instead of any kind of steps toward rehabilitation, his mother just shames him on something insignificant like cussing. 😂
@@Strobeliite “Make him a better person?” Umm… maybe you need to watch the video again because we’re waaay past that, lol.

He probably meant to say "Im not not-lying anymore"

i love the use of the phrase 'what happens in the dark comes out in the light'. That's a really great way of putting it.
Luke 12:2 ”For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known. Therefore whatever you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have spoken in the ear in inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.” That phrase comes from the good book! Jesus is KING! Pray to the Lord my brothers and sisters, ask Christ for forgiveness and to fill your heart with the holy spirit and the Lord will guide you out of strife, believe in the Lord Jesus, Amen.
Too bad moms clearly a piece of work herself. She barely reacts when they tell her what her son has done...
@@jenniferbaggett5775not to mention she told him not to cuss but didnt gaf that he was speaking shit about himself
@@jenniferbaggett5775
Yes, I noticed that. The father is crying and she is stone cold. I would’ve been vomiting everywhere. I’d venture to say she is part of the kids problem.
It's from the Bible! 😊
Luke 12:2-4 (KJV) For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.
Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.
And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
He’s a sociopath. Everything he says is pretty much the exact definition of what a sociopath is. Breaks rules and laws, behaves aggressively or impulsively, feels little guilt for harm they cause others, feels no empathy towards others, knows wrong from right. It’s exactly him.

Classic sociopath, only concerned for himself, zero regard for his victim, no impulse control and no accountability. Even blaming a 98yo woman for leaving her door unlocked.
Everyone else’s fault but their own. I was married to a sociopath who threatened to k I l l me and put me in the lake in Louisiana
I can't even start to imagine how horrifying it must be for the parents to find out their son is a murderer :(
This story sickens me because I’m thinking of this poor elderly lady who should be given respect and dignity in her later years, instead was treated like trash.
The kid should definitely serve LIFE.
Well it's a good thing he's serving a life sentence then...
@@Saboteur4He’s only serving 25 years with a shot at parole
25 years is considered a life sentence.
@@at6062 thats not a life sentence
@@at6062 In this case, we prefer “the duration of a persons natural life”.
As a father myself I could feel that man’s pain. It’s something I fear a lot, the realization that you failed as a parent in the worst way and your child took the life of an innocent person and violated them afterwards. This is a great lesson for all fathers to always keep an open dialogue with your children and never assume they’re going thru a “phase”.
Your a good father 💯
The mother was so cold.
@@traciharris we all can only try our best to raise the next generation into respectable and responsible people with strong consciences and morals
@@JPCollier that’s trauma for you. The disbelief and unwillingness to accept your own child who you’ve raised for the past 17 years is capable of murdering someone in cold blood and engaging in necrophilia. I don’t think anybody can say for sure how they would react in that situation unless they experienced it themselves.
@@Lumiere98 amen to that Hun 🙏🏼
Please, people - lock your doors! This is not the 50s anymore with the “our neighborhood is so safe we never lock the doors to our house” approach anymore. Set up a Ring or two, lock the doors, the windows, everything.
💯💯💯
I only started locking my door in 1978 when I moved to London. I keep a bat by my bed and always will.
I completely agree, there's a reason women would rather run into a bear in the woods than a Man with bad intentions. And trust me, those people DO live in your communities
We had serial killers in the 50s. It's an illusion that the past was any safer.
Parents would warn kids over boogymen and pedos. Nowadays, its teen gangs
This is just heartbreaking all around. The boy is obviously suffering mentally. It's unfortunate that he couldn't get/find the help that he needed to prevent this tragedy.
Same, I see all these comments about how he's a sociopath, but that doesn't seem the case at all.
I hate watching true crime stuff because it's always just hyper-depressing like this. I only watched this because of morbid curiosity and now I regret it. Watching lives get ruined in isn't fun at all, even when the person deserves it.
It must be unsettling to realize you never knew your son even after 16 years old.
i know seeing the dad crying was heartbreaking
I watched this while holding my 2 year old son as he naps😭 I cannot begin to imagine. He was once a little toddler in his mama's arms😢. How does that even happen!?
I'm 31 andy parents don't know wme at all 😂😂
I agree & disagree. They knew him & knew he was “different&disturbed” but not to what degree.
Seems like she never bothered or cared to know her son in the first place...welcome to modern parenting 101.
As he’s in tears: ‘It doesn’t change the fact I’ve ruined MY life’ - the fact he ONLY seems upset about the consequences and not what he actually did to this poor elderly woman just shows he has 0 remorse for it. Another narcissist. The pain in that dad’s voice is so heartbreaking
I think this guy is a bit worse than just a narcissist
Hes a complete Sociopath.
Truly feel for his family ! 😢💔
@@qoph1988asbo bloody lootly!

Gavon said "I've ruined my life". No remorse for what he did to that poor woman. Sociopaths are real life monsters.
A many of them will never hurt anyone. So please, don't blame all of them coz some of them are doing crimes. You know that they didn't wanted or decided to born that way and it's NOT their fault that they did. I'm not defending this dude or anyone who harms others BUT NOT ALL OF THEM ARE CRIMINALS, KILLERS AND DANGEROUS!! educate yourself a bit please before you are labeling all of them as a monsters. That just makes you look like an ignorant moron.
He isn't a sociopath. And the majority of sociopaths do not kill people. He's likely got BPD and disassociative disorder.
sociopathy does not cause someone to commit a horrendous murder
@@prollymarkus ASPD is on a spectrum and therefore ranges in severity, so you can't generalise anyone and what they're capable of. Someone who is neither a sociopath nor psychopath can still kill someone, under certain conditions. the OP wasn't commenting on the act of murder - they were commenting on the lack of remorse.
... and politicians are real life demons.
his fathers reaction was heartbreaking
There's no way someone like him can be rehabilitated into society.
He will be out in 19 years...
Eligible for parole after 25 years?????????
Sickening. Absolutely sickening!!!!!!!!!!
That really is not how justice should be done, a life-sentence would be too short.
@@petermastenbroek7719"life sentence" is not equal to "life in prison".

@@jack1d1XB it is, because this is disgusting.
I don't want anyone to think I was supporting him. But when you hear someone got a "life sentence" it doesn't automatically mean life in prison.
I don’t believe anyone who preys on the vulnerable whether it’s children, the elderly or handicapped/disabled people can be rehabilitated. Not everyone deserves to be free and not everyone deserves to live.
I absolutely agree.
Agreed. The very very minor chance of rehabilitation (VERY MINOR in this case) isn't worth the risk to society.
He had to commir crimes to feel anything. Clearly he had a biological issue or simply wired differently due to childhood trauma or neglect. Having to break laws and commit crimes just to "feel" alive... Yeah.
People like him are ticking time bombs. Luckily he is locked up at 16 and can't hurt anymore people
@@heatherbukowski2102 You're under the impression that the US justice system, has anything to remotely do with "rehabilitation".
That said in 25 years, he's not going to be the same person. His brain isn't even fully developed now, and nothing says he will even get parole in 25 years.
He could possibly get out of jail at a prime/statistically relevant age to do it again. It's scary.
The mom's reaction makes me think he gets it from that side of the family, don't misunderstand me
I'm pretty he gets it from being molested as a child lmao
People express emotions differently. I bet she was just fed up with her kid breaking the law so many times. Shouldn’t be blaming the parent for a kid’s decisions.

im kinda thinking you guys in the west would be much safer if you lived in apartments instead of houses..i mean in my town in eastern europe its safe anyway, no violent crimes whatsoever but we still prefer living in apartment buildings, locked building door with a code and you have 20+ families living all around you in the same building so people are usualy avoiding braking in an apartment...but maybe im wrong..
@@darkodarko9Does your Eastern European village have 1m+ people in it? No? And will victimizing other villagers get you ostracized? Yes? Then there's why crime is so low. 😊❤
@@darkodarko9currently living in a flat block that's secured and locked, but not safe, it depends on the size, I used to live with just 5 neighbours in a block wnd it was bliss, now I live in a big block with 300 and there are registered sex offenders here and I'm a young woman. It's not always about the stranger, sometimes psychopaths can be living next to you and you'd be nonthewiser unless they have a record AND you utilise laws to go through a process to prove you should see those records for your own safety. Ontop of that anyone can get the code or be buzzed in so it's only secure if the neighbours are all good and quiet. Especially as a female that lives alone, in my experience living in apartments in the UK I've had many experiences that ranged from unsettling to horrifying
