- Terrifying video shows an elderly man pointing a gun at an Uber driver before fatally shooting her. William Brock tells 911 that he shot the Uber driver because he had just been threatened on the phone by a total stranger and thought the driver and caller were working together. Brock said that the scammer ordered Brock to pay $12,000 or else. Cops say at the same time Loletha Hall, unaware of the circumstances, was instructed through the Uber app to pick up a package from Brock's home. Brock was charged with murder and has pleaded not guilty. Inside Edition’s Les Trent has more.
He was a victim of a phone call, she is a victim of murder. Big difference.
idk... if you were just told someone was going to come to your home and murder your family... and then someone DID show up to your house.... you think that was just a coincidence? no
@GorgieClarissa Yes because the old lady that could barely walk to the front door to get this so-called package unarmed was such a threat. He deserves to spend the rest of his life in prison.

She was walking away and unarmed. Scam or no scam, he murdered her.
She wasn't the Scammer. The caller set her up.
In canada. Most likely indian. Canada AKA India 2.0

He is not the victim!!! Let’s stop this narrative right there.
EXACTLY!
I also hate the narrative of elderly folks that commit crimes should get a lesser punishment! It needs to stop. “NO SYMPATHY POINTS”!!!
Welcome to the Western world, do you think justice is real thing? Looks at Israel and Palestine, who do you think is in Western favor, especially the Western media narrative, believing to any Western media at this points is as good as become devil worshipers.
Welcome to the Western world, this is what Western media thing, narrative is made for their favor.
Sounds about wyte.
He took her phone, stopped her from leaving as she is backing away crying for help. He is pursuing her with a weapon and she's UNARMED! He was and is NOT a victim. He's a murderer!
I think you mean "unarmed," not "unharmed," friend.
@@troymazzei5976 Indeed I did.
Still says unharmed
What if she took a gun out ,just imagine it happened ,I feel all but sad for this innocent women's death but imagine if it was a person who wanted to collect the money.That's definitely a necessary way to look a this situation.
@@chandrakala8648that’s the dumbest thing I’ve read. “What if she took a gun out? Just imagine it happened?” No. No I won’t. She didn’t have a gun. She was a defenseless old woman who got her phone taken and killed. Stop it. You folks do this every time and it’s annoying.
The only victim is the woman, the man was the aggressor.
how was he the aggressor???
Old people get delusional and then they get prescribed pills. This guy was probably a good person until his mind was gone. The woman was definitely the victim though. She had so much life left. RIP
did u not watch the video? the man was threatened for his life and then a random woman comes.
@@liorgeva289 get offline buddy
@@davidjd123 He was chasing after her with a gun as she backed away and called for help.
What video did you watch?
Being scammed does not give him the right to murder this woman.
He simply got a phone call.
Let's pray the judge feels the same.
Didn't it say they were threatening his family though??
He was never scammed. He was extorted. He was told that he and his family would be killed if he didn't give the person showing up to his house money(who he had no ide was an uber driver he was told it was one of them).
No one is crying hate crimes like in other videos
This story is focusing way too much on the scam call and way too little on he fact that this man just murdered someone
We all know why
It's Inside Edition. You can't expect much from them.
that literally one of the biggest reason he kill though, or you prefer to omit the motive and call mob justice? make total misinformation?
@HaleyJohnston-rm7rq You're not wrong to be objective, but we have to stay in the facts. I'm a conceal carry and home defense instructor, I try to stay on incidents like this. She was sent to his property via the Uber app and wasn't attempting to break in. The police did not report a weapon on her. She was retreating and no longer a threat. To use lethal force, your life needs to be in immediate danger.
@HaleyJohnston-rm7rq Just be quiet. Y'all always look for other angles when you don't want someone to be guilty. HE IS GUILTY. End of story.
She didn't even know why she died.......😢
I know if the man was smart he should have shouted you think you can threaten me over the phone then the lady might realise what was going on and explain what happened
@@oisinlynch8427that wouldn't matter. He made up his mind the moment he step out of his house instead of callling the police.

She was unarmed and non-threatening. He basically ended her in cold blood. Did he seem afraid for his life to you?
He didn't seem scared. He seemed upset and confused. Probably because he is 81 years old.
@@TheLostWorldFanChann Wish I were old,upset,and confused. Ain’t a day that goes by where I can be swayed away from my sedentary lifestyle. I still get worried from time to time.

@@TheLostWorldFanChannOkay so people like that need to be locked up because they can be dangerous to themselves or other people it seems like.
And he was charged with murder. He’ll get his day in court. However, what an amazing co-inky-dink that she was the Uber driver there to pick up the package full of money.
@@TheLostWorldFanChann white privilege
He’s still a murderer. That lady could hardly walk, what made her a threat?
I find the visual from the victim very disturbing. Regardless of the old mam being scammed, he executed a woman who was just as elderly and defenseless. Even her calling for help and him still shooting was such a pointless, vile act.
Right? Also if he thought she was there to rob him or harm him, why didn’t her screaming “help!” And backing away throw him off and make him second-guess if this was the correct person? He was delusional and I’m sure he didn’t have the most positive internalized beliefs about black people either…because I can’t truly imagine him doing this to a 61 year old white lady with a limp.

He is a murderer. Not a victim.
Unintentional mate. He was scared of what couldve happened but he shouldve been more careful. You people should be blaming the SCAMMER who THREATENED to end his life and was probably going to go through with it too since he had his PERSONAL INFORMATION.
Watch some loser pick apart the first sentence rather than consider the situation at hand. Typical people
@@epicplanter3480 The caller threatened him, yes; but he had intent to kill without hearing her side of the story as someone who had nothing to do with it. Can't even chalk it up to a crime of passion. I doubt he was more scared than she was. He deserves to be locked up. Most people wouldn't resort to this when push comes to shove.

That was straight up murder. She posed no threat whatsoever.
She was so terrified. And he knew it. He knew she was terrified. How could he not. She was unarmed and trying to get away. He took her life because he did not stop to think.
Exactly
He was NOT the victim! How dare you?!
why not
Yeah he was he got scammed if anything you could be that scammer
@@SeminarioMAE he's not a victim because he didn't get injured or lose anything.
He just received a death threat and was more than likely told someone was on their way to his home. This was to scare him into sending the money. He is 100% a victim in all this, doubt he'd see jail time but will be paying fines for the woman's family.
@@SeminarioMAEcause he had a gun with him but she didn’t. That’s why
He left the safety of his home and hunted her down! He didn’t call the police when she knocked on the door! He is not a victim… she is the only victim! Guilty of murder!
Correct
EXACTLY!
Hunted?
@@chaosman4715 His body language and motions look much more deliberate and predatory than defensive. He never stopped moving towards her. No hesitation, no indecisiveness.
@@OweEyeSeaand literally blocking her way to her car to flee. Hunted is correct.
Old man was the victim of a prank call she was a victim of a relentless cold blooded murder. She also looked so harmless breaks my heart
It’s unjust to label the murderer as a victim.
"BOTH VICTIMS"?!?! WTF? This criminal murdered her in cold blood.
I don't think "cold blood" applies here, that's not what that phrase means. The guy is mentally gone and thought someone was trying to kill him. I blame the scammer more than the old man.
He was a victim of a scammer’s harassment. Yes he murdered her and yes, he should go to prison for it but, he was a victim of a scammer’s harassment first.
@RobertMatlock this lady was walking back calling for help. This was cold blood.
uh no he thought he was at risk
@@RobertMatlock so if someone is ''mentally'' gone murder is legal? Be real.. Murder is not okay no matter the mental state of someone. doofus
Who cares, she was not a threat walking backwards so he used excessive force and needs to go to prison
A.s.a.p.
Amerikkka
he is old so he probably not thinking properly like a younger person
He even took her phone. She never got a chance to call for help herself
He definitely used the call to do something he always wanted. But this is the US. He will escape charges.
Stop calling this MURDERER a "victim"!! 😡 There is only ONE victim and she was killed by this lose cannon.
I mean, you'd be that way to if someone called you, threatened to end you and your family, and then there was a knock at the door.
@@KrodaStaggwas the woman armed.
@@KrodaStagg I wouldn't have opened my door nor would I have walked outside, the dumbest desicion😂. If some younger guy really was out to kill this old man I don't think he'd be alive if he decided to walk outside and confront them instead of calling the police right after that call.
@@KrodaStagg Right, I guess people can’t her that the man and his family life were threatened by the scammer. Her family should be suing Uber whoever she drove for putting her in danger by the scammer. Absolutely sad for both!!
@@kelvincity848you act like people can’t just have a weapon tucked in their waste line.
He didn’t even get scammed. Why would you call him the victim? That’s so sickening.
Someone calls you threatening to kill you. Then you hear a knock at the door... so you GO OUTSIDE?
right
He had a gun
😢you got that right
Threatened his family too. And he had a gun so yeah he planned to stop the person and defend his whole family including himself because if he gets away he still has his address and phone number and probably his family's info (this is the old guy's logic probably). What else would you do? Wait for cops to find them? A family member might die in that time. Listen this guy was from an older time where you handled things yourself. Probably served in the military or police. I mean he had a gun at home so not crazy to assume that.
He was wrong. She was backing up and moving away. Go back in your house and call the police for God’s sake!!!
She was literally backing away having zero threat and he continued advancing not only while pointing a gun but shooting her 3 TIMES WHEN NOTHING HAPPENED
But the scammer was the one who called the uber after the man had been given death threats. It's obviously the scammers is a big part for this outbreak.
@chandrakala8648 so you saying you would have done the same thing this old man did? If not then don't protect him
@@chandrakala8648
So? Anyone with a brain and working eyes can see this woman with walking difficulties is of no threat.
@@virgiledwards8980I was just stating the obvious nothing personal,it's just a old man who is well above his middle age and him being threatened he decided the best course of action was to kill the person who might ATTACK his family and friends and him ,that was completely HIS decision .Different people take different steps to resolve a situation so yea and mindset at the moment is also a matter ,so I can't really give a good response but I probably would not have been to nice to the lady but not as deadly as the old man did to her tho.
Hahahahahaha
Has he been arrested??? Three shots on an unarmed woman is a call for murder. HE IS NOT A VICTIM. Get your facts right
No handcuffs nothing..while in .the police patrol ....the back door was opened...his feet were outside the patrol 🚓 just having a nice conversation with that investigator police 👮♂️ 👨........we saw that......while lying to cops...she was gonna kill him...with what ?? Her skin color ?
He's a murderer not a victim.
If the man thought she was there to harm him, why would he even have come out of the house??
Poor lady, RIP.
Exactly I would not have even opened my door and called the police
Not trying to defend him but you gotta think in his shoes. He is old and he was most likely taught to stand your ground. But what he did was inexcusable.
I’m not justifying what he did, but sometimes people come out of their house to confront or chase the threat away. It happens to trespassers.
my guess is thats exactly what he had planned.
Probably cuz he had a gun. Duh
The person that ordered the Uber trip set her up to die ... That person needs to be prosecuted.
Exactly. People here so bloodthirsty to hate on a white man they see only what they want to see.
and when that person is found they will be prosecuted, in the mean time, were gonna go ahead and address the utter disregard for human life, in the murder of an unarmed elderly woman
He goes to because he is the one shooting the gun. He killed her because she was black, if she were white he wouldn't have killed her.
@@HaVoKisthebetterSuMmErSI’m more angry at his scammer than the old man.

Your comment is the best. If there is any dementia you can become paranoid. Besides that he thought she was part of the ones threatening his family.
@Neganisawesome she was literally backing away asking for help
He didn't know he was being recorded by her dash cam. Now his LIE that she was trying to rob him, attack him, was the aggressor and advancing towards him, etc is in jeopardy.
You have just made the most sensible comment of all
Amen!!! Exactly!!!
Exactly!
He thought she was there to rob him because he just received a phone call demanding ransom money or else his family would be harmed. What he did was very stupid but it's pretty clear that he thought she was there to hurt him.
@@tekbarrierWhy does everyone blindly believe the ransom call story?
Even if that was true, and she was there to collect the ransom money for his family, what did he think the kidnappers were going to do to his family if he killed her?
Makes no sense even if you want to believe the scam ransom call actually happened.
It really is infuriating how they keep calling him a victim and not a murderer
Murder is murder. She was clearly retreating back to her car and he was following her.

Bro what? Stay on topic.
So if someone said they were coming to ur house and were gonna kill u and your family and then that person shows up to your house and you hurt them, but it was all a scam, you’re not a victim? Interesting
@@karaveraNot if the person is trying to explain herself and backing away pleading for her life! He didn’t want to hear anything she had to say. He took her phone and cornered her so she couldn’t leave. Thats false imprisonment.
If he didn’t have a gun, how would he have handled it? He would’ve stayed inside his own home and called the police.
This is the problem with running to get your gun. It basically stops the THINKING wheels in most people, and they can’t think of anything but KILL KILL KILL. He had more than enough information when that lady was explaining and pleading for her life. He just wanted an excuse to kill somebody today. Off to prison you go
Blame the scammers
@@karaverawho is "that person" in question, the 60 year old Uber driver?
He lied about what he said on the phone
Id love to know if the threat he claimed to get about being harmed was valid. I bet it wasn’t. First thing he mentioned was money. And I’ll bet that’s all the threat entailed. If he feared for his life, he wouldn’t have left the house.
YOU CAN SEE HER AS SHE KEEPS TRYING TO GET IN HER CAR AND GET AWAY as she's yelling for help. She was no means of any threat. She was killed in cold blood.

As former police officer he should be charged with murder. He was not in fear of his life but simply was scammed on the phone. All he had to do was call the police and tell them that someone was at his residence who he thought was a scammer. But instead, he decided to execute this innocent woman by shooting her several times. He should be charged with first degree murder because he had already decided that he would kill the person that came to his home. That equates to premeditated murder. In addition, the woman's family should sue Uber in a civil lawsuit for putting her in this position without verifying the complete circumstance. My heart goes out to this beautiful woman who lost her life over a scam that she didn't even know about.
Exactly!!!
How do you know It was premeditated? I am a former Supreme Court justice, and I do not think so.
@@wideman4498You’re a former Supreme Court justice, but cannot read and comprehend what he just wrote? It was premeditated when he received a call and instead of calling the authorities, grabbed his gun and waited on the Uber driver instead . When he saw her at the door, he determined to GO OUTSIDE toward the supposed threat. Then, as she tried to explain, he takes her phone and blocks her way to her car. He wanted to kill her no matter what. And he knew he’d do it to whomever approached his home. How dumb of him. It could’ve been another unrelated party like the Girl Scouts or something, and he didn’t want to consider that because his mind was already made up to kill.

@@bryn1063 i'm not justifying murder, I'm wondering how much of the anger against him has less to do with how reacted to the overall threatening situation and more to do with his race/sex vs her race/sex. what would people's opinion of the situation be if the roles were reversed. would she be seen as a murderer who should have called police, or would she be seen as a victim who sadly misunderstood the situation leading to an unfortunate death?

The way this story is presented is absolutely shameful and insane. I work with aging populations many of them have been scammed, some have lost nearly everything from these scams or from family members exploiting them… never once did they get a revolver and gun down an unarmed person begging for help. Shame on you
Yeah they never did that because no one was showing up to their house. In the context of the story the scammer was currently on the phone threatening the life of the man and his family for ransom money which this woman was unknowingly sent to pick up. So she knocked on his door and this is the result of that. I'm not saying what he did is right but comparing it to the typical scam cases you hear about it is a different situation (no one threatening your life as someone knocks on your door in person).

@@Conquered only an idiot would risk getting their "kidnapped" relatives unalived by getting into a shootout with potential extortionists outside their home 🤦🏾🤡
@@shelzblack488I’m actually shocked that they really sat there and tried to justify his actions smh
So, even if the phone call about family being held hostage happened they way described it and his is not lying, what did he think was going to happen if he killed the courier coming to pick up the ransom?
Why would kidnappers think he would have any significant amount of cash on hand on such short notice to pay a ransom or were they planning to take a personal check? This is dumb.
Did he think the imagined kidnappers would just release the kidnapped family members and everything would just be solved if the courier never brought the ransom?
When she arrived at his home, he could have called the police. There was no need to murder her. He should go to jail for the rest of his life.

That reporter should be fired for claiming he's a victim..
Too trigger happy
my thoughts as well
Exactly! Why did he have to keep shooting after hitting her in the leg?
Describes much of the country, sadly.
Perhaps even a bit racist. It was rampant in his generation.
Racism
Why he ain’t just call the police???
Yeah why murder !!!!
Because he's a gun owner, they tend to like playing hero even when it isn't necessary.
@@DeoxysDNAlike you play hero "protesting" to "free palestine" on freeways
@@killerr721 You assume but in reality no, I go to work.
@@DeoxysDNAthat is the most ignorant comment I’ve ever seen
Seeing people hurting and terrified breaks my heart. Older lady trying to pay her bills murdered. Last second alive spent begging. So sorry for her and her family.
He shouldn't even have a gun. He doesn't know reality well enough
Bull….! He is not the victim she is! He was brutal
False
Exactly!!!
Dear Patrica Boss 9499, Try vicariousness.
@@gtrdxzcan tell yre jst tryin to offend People..
This man needs to go to jail. This man pulls a gun on woman as she is walking away.
Walking away backwards
Hes no victim! Im glad its a murder charge! She was telling him and begging why she was there and he ignorantly believed what she, an older limping black woman, was there to kill him 😢
He killed her.
He needs to be held accountable and rot in prison
Do you really need to loop the images of the poor woman asking for help in her last moments alive? So disrespectful to the family.
I think it’s important, it helps us see who the victim really is. Imagine how frustrated the family must feel to hear the shooter is being called a victim.
It's disrespectful to the murderer and his family maybe but Thankful they have coverage that shows his complete guilt without any doubt!
😂
Shouldn’t you be fighting for Ukraine?
Clearly murderer.. she was backing away and calling for helped
Did Inside Edition just call the murderer a victim??
Why isn’t this man in jail?
White privilege 🤍
Scam or not. He should be charged with murder. She was defensless, she didn't carry a gun. Therefore, its a capital offense.
they BOTH were victims?????? Please
No, even if it was the alleged person there to harm him, he shouldve called the cops. He needs to go to jail
He's not going to jail, no jury is going to convict him stop it, they're going to go after the scammer
Ikr, A victim with a gun on an unarmed person.
Even if he’s a victim of an alleged scam. He has no right to take the matter in his own hand.
The Scammers basically scared and paranoid this man as they got an alarming amount of details about him and had even threatened him and his family members lives. The man agreed to send money to them in hopes of trapping them but the scammers were smart enough to send an innocent unaware person simply doing her job, the man thought she was with them and that's when it all went down. Unfortunate that this had to happen and it does take two to tango but at the end of the day, the scammers where the one who provoked this.
Because he is white, now he became "victim of scam", she is victim of murder.
instead of focusing on the actual problem we bring other problems like racism to cause more drama. What a world
The lunatic with the gun is no victim.
They were both victims of a scam, but one is a victim of a murder and the other is a murderer.
He's no victim! He could've called 911 or just scared her off at most.
She was walking away so...how was he threatened in that moment? Sad.
She lost her life for nothing
At least she cant go pick up ransoms anymore
Well, she lost her life for being hired to pick up an extortion payment. It sucks, but she was a part of a violent crime organization that she was unaware of. The mob told this dude he better pay up, or his family is getting offed, then hired this girl to pick up the payment.
@@Guenwhyever, she was an elderly woman who was murdered, not a girl. Show some respect!!!
@@Guenwhyevershe was an Uber driver she got sent that address on the app it was completely innocent Uber picks up packages y’all want her to be a criminal so bad it’s sick
Send him to prison for the rest of his life, that was straight up murder. She backed away and he kept stepping forward. She was the only victim here.
I agree with you, and for that, you deserve a like! Thank you and have a nice day!
He knew she wasn't going to kill. He had the gun.
It's crazy how the media tries to create equal sympathy when there isn't one! Sorry. Loletha Hall's life mattered.
Exactly. They only do this so the old man can not go to jail. Let's look into the old man background like they do other people. Look into his family too.
I know we can't be 100% sure of this, but I really don't think he would have killed her if she was a white woman... Rest in Power ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽
@@Banshee_Hauntyou’re absolutely right, and he did it TWICE despite her being scared and unarmed
She was picking up the "package", she is part of the scam. Uber doesn't pick up random packages, since they could contain dangerous or illegal items....
@@Banshee_HauntGive me a break 🙄 You're trying to make this about race for some reason but you know it's not.
that woman was murdered
He is a psycho and needs to be in jail.
Absolutely a hate crime
Murder? Yes. Hate crime? No.
@@chaosman4715definitely hate crime - that mane ain’t have no compassion for that lady
@@fitrasta8081 that's not a hate crime
I wonder if the man was black and the woman was white. I wonder how people would react.
Why would you wonder that?
@@BiggieTrismegistusthey want to make everything a race war
I would feel the same way. There was no need for him to kill the lady when he wouldn't even let her explain.😢
There’d probably be a whole lot more racist comments
@@priscilavakautawell I've seen enough racist comments saying that the old man was racially motivated when he clearly wasn't
This breaks my heart. That poor woman died for nothing 😢
See how no one is crying hate crime in the comments
@@white_genocide2050 Why
Change the title of this video! It gives the impression that this lady was the scammer. 🙄
Change the title, that man isn’t a victim but a criminal
The US govt needs to take the scamming epidemic WAY more seriously. And if that means cracking down and sanctioning countries that enable overseas scammers to function with little risk …like India, Nigeria and Jamaica …then so be it. This is not a small problem, it has become a HUGE problem. And it’s past time that folks in Washington DC start treating it as such.
Michael 6542, This set-up prank is "swatting" Uber drivers by simple homeowner sapiens.
No way in hell. You want other people to suffer from sanctions because of scammers? That's insane.
