Sex offenders need to stay in jail 4 life
FOREVER!! They do not get the help they need to change.
Or under the prison...
@@kimpatterson7171
They don't change.
Maybe they are unable to.
Whatever the reason, they should stay in prison for life.
Children need to be protected and kept safe from them.
I don't even care if this is bait, mega upvote
Yes, yes, yes! Unfortunately they are prosecuted the least of any of them, just absolutely abhorrent😢😢😢
Why hasn't the media been covering this case more? He's a child! Why am I just hearing about this! Smh...
U know why if u really think of it no blond hair nor blue eyes
Ive seen it on the news. Idk why you haven't
I've been hearing about it since they found him
@@qutanyaWoods-wm6vv It's been national news since it broke
Watching the wrong news stations??
That home is evidence. It should not be turned teared down until case is disposed of.
no sh*t sherlock 😆
And with the people IN it!!
These half way houses should Never be in a family residencial neighborhood. RIP dear child, prayers to his mother and family.
These halfway houses shouldn't exist. People like that should not be released back into society. In fact in England, they have their own town where children are not allowed and they are not allowed to leave without reason and approval. But it's a full town with a bankand grocery, etc. Or maybe it was an Australia but check it out it works
@@meganh4011 I live in England it’s not here, we have these awful places nr children too, I think I know what your on about sure I seen a programme too. I bet it was Australia and it worked well.
@@gillyvickers8454 thank you. I think it was Australia. I knew when I was thinking back the accent was not any place in England, but it was still English. Anyway, they shouldn't be in our regular neighborhoods was the actual point.
@@meganh4011 Our once great country is going to the dogs. I if given the opportunity will not be wanting to spend my retirement here. Mind boggles why these monsters get to stay nr children.
@@meganh4011that’s great but what happens if the perverts reproduce?
He was just a little boy when he was murdered. This child needs JUSTICE 😔
How the hell did nobody hear or smell anything for 4 years.. smh.
They’re lying
Wondering where’s the dog
So true! Unsure myself. When my next door neighbors went on vacation in the summer, there was a very bad and foul smell coming from their house, so bad that even doors down noticed it and started questioning out of curiosity. When the neighbors came back, one of us confronted them about it. We found out there was a big dead raccoon inside between roof attic. It took a whole day for them to find out where it was coming from. It's just an animal/rodent, so imagine the smell of a human being decomposition! How do you not smell that, even through the cracks of windows?
It said on the Missing poster of Jaylen, that his birthday was April 22, 2008. Happy Birthday in Heaven and Rest in Peace.
Wow - he should have turned 16 this week 😢
🕊️🥀
This case is just so so heartbreaking. Imagine your child going out for a quick walk, and never returning. I can’t even imagine what he was put through before he was killed, that poor little boy!
🙏🙏
Even more sad no publicity of him missing until he’s found dead 😞
This is Heartbreaking And Proof That Demons Are Real 😢
Only 5 miles away from his family home. Rest in peace young Jaylen 💙 Hoping to hear of an arrest ASAP.
Whoever lived there did it and or knows who did it and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law!! How can you live in a house that smells of a decomposing body.
Coz they are mentally ill
That's what I'm screaming HOW do you live with the smell of a decomposed body, it's a smell like NO other, now his mama can RIP she has her baby boy with her, breaks my heart. Prayers for this family!!
First offense against a child --> capital punishment. Period.
MISSING 4 years is ridiculous! Why does no one care about black children missing?
Because they come from black adults
Sadly, it's the same reason they don't care about the Indians that go missing as well.
@@ds8290 it's ONLY if you're rich . They never post any race except for rich kids.
They don’t care about kids. That’s why.
Why do you people make everything about race? There aRe bodies of children of every race that have never been found.
Dear God this is horrible. How many people have lived in that house over 4 years. How has no one, maintenance, those who ran the program, parole officers, DHS reps, police responders to crimes committed there, never have smelled anything or seen this young man??!! Unbelievable!!
Thank you for saying this. Nothing makes any sense to me, so I thought I was just not getting it. So no one went up to that attic for storage? To check for rain leaks? Nothing until four years later and it had to be a maintenance person? WHY was a maintenance person up there in the first place? And yes, there most definitely would have been an odor permeating even to the outside of the home. This case needs some really excellent detective work. Poor baby. RIP to Jaylen and to his poor mom, who died before she could know what happened to her baby.
Decomp would of seeped through the floor and absorbed in the walls... Nothing at all makes sense about this case but I sure hope that truth prevails for the sake of this young beautiful boy 😢❤
Perhaps the criminal moved the body there way after the criminal act to incriminate the occupants.
@@sassilou I am completely devastated for this family. I hope they get justice for this innocent child!
Jaylen hasn't necessarily been there the entire time. He could have only recently been put there after having been somewhere else, like a storage unit or something. But even he was, it's still ridiculous that they're considering tearing the structure down with an open case.
Gee putting these people in a residential neighborhood...what could go wrong?
Right 👀
Yeah really unfair to good law abiding people. Criminal’s needs are LESS important than the safety of a community.
12 years old, just walking his dog. 😢 I'm so very sorry he had to go through this, and his family. Rest with God, who knows all.
So's should not be released into public period!
We need justice for this kid
Completely agree. That home could be a crime scene. It makes no sense to tear it down.
I BELIEVE YOU ARE CORRECT!!!
Why were these people allowed to stay there? Disgusting!
Predators have to live somewhere when they get out. Unfortunately.
They should reconsider allowing predators to live “anywhere”. Maybe there’s one island we stick them on or something. But also… I don’t think I believe predators can be rehabilitated. Not child predators at least
There’s something not right. If a rat die in my attic my whole house will smell! There’s no way no one could have smelled the decomp. Was he moved there after a long time from his passing? Was he inside any kind of container that was sealed? Insane! Don’t allow the house to be destroyed!
Someone could smell that. Everyone that went in that house could smell that childs body. So were they all involved
Exact
Exactly
The only thing I could think of was the reason why nobody complained about the smell because whoever did that to little boy. You got people that are. I forgot the name for it but they like to S. A unalived bodies. And all the sex offenders could have been in there doing that. He probably wasn't even dead that long ain't no way he was in there for 4 years and nobody knew they had him alive for a while
He was a kid..not a young man!
This world we live in is so depraved. So very sad.
I don’t get how sex offenders have such low sentencing
Because theirs higher people of power who commit the same crime.
Crazy. Need to arrest the person responsible for his death.
Well, they gotta investigate first Can’t make an arrest without knowing who did it
His mother passing before this is another layer of pain for that family...poor mom saw her 2nd son d¡e..
People are saying his brother was also shot to death. So, this whole family situation is just very tragic.
No one smell the decomposing body? Something wrong.
Meh, imagine a hoarder's home smell.
Who knows how nasty some of residents were? Could be why it didn't seem unusual. Definitely someone knows something however!
I've heard it said that it is a smell like no other. I hope to never find out.
@beachbaby1427 the smell is really terrible. It truly was something awful. When I was about 11 years old, my friends and I were walking to a playground. We had to pass through a small park/pathway that had a fence along one side. We all smelled this awful odor and wondered what the heck it was. Around 15 minutes or so later , a bunch of police cars showed up and quickly blocked off the area where we had just come from. There was a dead body that had been dumped over the fence.
@@beachbaby1427I smelt it before when my neighbor died in his apartment during a heatwave. It smelled like a ton of hot garbage.
What in the absolute hell?!!! Every single person in that house should be arrested! How did the entire neighborhood not smell the body?!
My home town, this is so sad . His mother passed away in September 2023 and his older brother was killed 3 months after he went missing. justice for Jaylen 🙏🏾 🙏🏾 my heart goes out to his remaining family. Mother and her two sons are back together again. 🙏🏾
That is so sad! May they all rest in peace 😢❤️
His 18 year old brother was also shot to death three months after Jaylen went missing.
Too tragic to bare 4 one mother x❤x
My God, their family must be absolutely devastated 😢
@@mummybunny331 She's now deceased. She died in September- soooo close for her to find out the truth. I guess we still don't know the full truth yet. Everything about this family is just heartbreaking 😢
Ty meesette
@@Mewsette1 they are back together in heaven
It’s ridiculously to even consider tearing the house down right now
What kind of living goes on in a place with a dead body upstairs for 4 years?
My heart goes out to his family and friends. I pray they find the one responsible for his murder so there will be justice.
Omgosh…there’s no telling what happened to that poor little boy. This is heartbreaking.😢I wonder if he’s been there for 4 years? Oh it’s awful! I hope they find out who did it.
Who were living in that house at that time? All of them should be arrested and jailed for life
That's why I'm so confused 😕 obviously whoever was living there at that time did it. It's unbelievable!!!
The miasma produced by decomposition of a body is an overwhelming stench, which cannot be ignored. There is no way the occupants of that house didn't smell it and depending on the direction of the wind, the neighbors as well !
Its KRAZY how his mom kept hope alive for a long while...THEN MONTHS AFTER SHE PASSES...Hes Found 😮😢im sure jaylen was there when she was ready 🙌
😢
When the kid went missing they should have checked all offenders near that area. how did they not smell the body.
They did and law enforcement clearly dropped the ball here by not checking every offender so close to his home. Those ppl never stop! And the guy was put in custody last month for doing the same crap so he clearly never stopped yet there was more than one living there. Ugh. Ppl did smell it and complain about it. It's a halfway house so it was brushed off as if they were just dirty slobs
Omg 😱 that’s so crazy! Poor boy was kidnapped by sex offenders from that house! how awful 😫😢
Damn this made major headlines fast as hell! It’s heartbreaking that his mom passed away before she could get an answer to this case
Idaho 4 house was torn down too soon, and now they want to do the same here ! Wow , talk about cover ups IMHO / no way should this house be torn down. This house needs to be inspected with a fine tooth comb from top to bottom .
The courts should never let them tear this house down until they find things they are to put a stop to this, tearing the house down until they investigate it all the way
I think it’s safe to say people living in that house and possibly people coming in and out know exactly what happened to this child. Him and his family need justice
Prayers for his family and friends
Someone had to have kidnapped this you man and took him there, mistreated him for 4 years. It’s so sad.
You assume he was alive for 4 years. May have been a lot less. Too soon to tell how long he's been gone. (Unless I missed something)
I would guess he was killed the same day he disappeared.
He was killed rather fast he was not kept for the full four years. Crazy so close to home, those Offenders should've been the first place to look.
@@SharpTacYes... That's what they're saying as well. So freaking sad it should have been the first place they looked! And it's truly devastating but I'm glad he wasn't tormented for 4 full years to walk out to having no mother and no brother any longer.
Poor little boy 😢. And the tragedy of his family as well. Absolutely awful! Justice for Jaylen 💙
He was probably lured in there.
I just said that 😢
Jaylen may you rest in peace 🙏 and may you get the justice ⚖️ you deserve 🙏 my condolences to the family 😢
Was the dog he was walking ever found?
RIP young man 🧡
Thats why we dont want those people in our neighborhoods! That poor boy 🙏🏽
That angers People!!!
Rest baby no one can hurt you anymore ❤.
We can't let our young men walk to the store.
Why would they put people like this in a residential home??Omg!😮 My heart goes out to the family of this young man 💔
Disgusting. So unfair to good law abiding decent people
There are truly demons and evil people on earth. I am so sorry for this family and the pain they’ve gone through. He will never be forgotten. 😢❤
Heartbreaking
Four sad unknowing years, I hope his mama has a sliver of peace now, and a huge chunk of hope for justice.
I heard she is deceased, as well as Jaylens brother. 🥺
Yes. They are all together now in heaven. One prays, right. I couldn't go to the vigil. I'm crying now. I just keep praying.
The Aunt seems broken but strong. Praying for strength for her and family. Praying for justice.
💙🙏
I am so sorry it has taken so long to find Jaylen. I hope he didnt suffer for years. Justice for Jaylen 💙
My prayers to the family and friends.
With the Idaho house being torn down, you can tell that now it's going to be one of those obnoxious trends where every neighbourhood with a 'crime house' is going to fight to have it torn down. Jumping on the bandwagon as everyone seems to do these days and completely ignoring the fact that it's all loaded with evidence. Instant gratification has now taken the place of common sense.
Agreed!
It’s alll about home values! No one want to live on Elm Street.
So dumb to tear down homes / buildings that crimes or murders happens .1 ya lose evadence. 2 now a days no house building or business would be standing .
So creepy, a dead child in the attic !! Horrendous, prayers 4 his family x😢x
Please don't tear this house down yet. So much can be revealed. Sending love and prayers to all affected by this.
This broke my heart! Prayers for comfort for his family. Justice for Jaylen.
Apparently, there was another body found there as well. I wonder what happened to the little boys dog? Maybe he made it home since it wasn't far.
Poor baby 😢Condolences to his family.
Four bodies in four years found at this address !!!
This home is one big crime scene .. do not tear down, find the killer(s) .
THIS IS HORRIFIC 😢😢!!!!
4 years later and Jayen FINALLY gets coverage. Sad. If he was blonde and/or had a social media following, perhaps it wouldn't have taken this FOUR years to get a national news crew here.
LEAVE OUR CHILDREN ALONE!
And no one wonder what the smell was and then not looking for where it was coming from. That's disgusting and it makes you angry that no one ever said anything about it they had to smell the decompression I'm happy that the family now has his remains and can put him to rest. 💔🥀 🕊️ 💖
No one smelled it? Wow.
Jesus God so darn sad and sadistic!!!!! I hope this monster is found and pays for this and everyone else involved!!!
Absolutely infuriating!
🙏 for the family. 😢
Justice ⚖️ for 🩵Jaylen🕯Griffin🩵😇🪽.
Damn that’s hella sad he was only 12
This is heartbreaking 😢 condolences to the family.🙏✝️
Prayers & condolences to all of Jaylens loved ones and friends . I feel strongly they will find the person responsible for Jaylens death . Those places have to keep a lot of records and the timeline will be key
I pray that precious baby gets justice!!
Police and court failure caused this young man’s death
No one could smell decomposition or a bed smell ? That’s a biohazard. Wow.
People outside could possibly smell it I think .?
This is to sick with all the people in and out for 4years.
I’m so very sorry for this young boy and especially his family, but I’m glad he was found and is finally able to rest .
So sad for him
Poor Jaylen. This is so sad.
They should not tears down the house..
It s the most stupid thing that they could do if they want to resolve it.
No questions about it.
Justice ⚖ for Jaylen. May you rest peacefully 🕊.
How didn't anyone smell a dead body?!? Come on sad and sick...
Oh no, sweet baby! He should have been able to walk his dog and feel safe and get home. He was just doing a normal, everyday thing and he was so young. I can’t imagine after four years of hoping and worrying to hear he was found dead. Would it be better or worse to have that finality?
Maybe it was a civil servant that ran the place that hid him in the attic. hoping the tenants would get in trouble.
I’m sure other residents in the house have information that would point to one person. Time will tell.
This was a halfway house? It was paid for with taxes? Why weren't the residents supervised 24/7? Why wasn't the home thoroughly searched, at least, weekly??
I have so many questions...🗿
This breaks my heart completely!!! I feel so hurt/angry there’s no telling what that baby had endured during that time 😓 there’s so many sick disgusting cold people walking on this earth it makes me neverrr want to bring another innocent life into this world 💔
There would be a definite odor for quite a while all around out on the street and all over. How did no one report an odor.
Rest in peace, Jaylen 🙏 🕊 my deepest sympathy to his mom and family 💜
4/23/24 Justice for Jaylen! Love to his Family and friends 💔❤️🩹🙏🏻
This is exactly why residents PROTEST these homes in their communities. I've never lived near one, however I've been through neighborhoods where they've been opened and those neighborhoods go "down the drain". Can't imagine what it does to property values.
How did they find him?
Oh no… poor child.
Another house of horrors
Did they ever check abandoned homes when he was first missing?
So nice to know these are put into neighborhoods
I’m so saddened to even hear that something as horrific 😢could happen to a human being.. not alone to a baby.. my prayers are to the family that they receive… consolation as well as justice!! PEACE/LOVE
