      You all seem to forget that Susan, the one everyone claims is just a victim, allowed her own father in law to massage her feet and calves for over two hours. Thats deceptive and very misleading, and in fact, one could make the accurate assumption that it was her that was the cause of this whole mess. Of course, Steven and Josh were mentally unbalanced which didn't help the situation!

    • @cremetangerine82
      @cremetangerine82 Рік тому +13

    • @lueyteledeluxe7457
      @lueyteledeluxe7457 Рік тому +4

      Absolutely!
      And now I'm starting to understand Josh's final heinous act.
      → Child abuse is a contagious disease that follows down the generations.
      The Sims of the father, so to speak.
      To put more bluntly... when a creeper like Steven..molests his own son, Josh..
      → Josh will grow up to be a creeper. Top. Having had his first experience so young, that leaves an imprint on the person.
      All of our first experiences form the basis of our sexual "fingerprint".
      And when a child is a) abused, b) years before they would have naturally had their puberty etc all take place naturally, 3) By same sex person 4) by some decades their senior, 4) by their own flesh & blood
      5). But worst of the worst - it's the Father ,the one person tasked with protecting & providing for the child!
      This type of abuse ends up repeating. It seems all but certain that Josh then abused his own children in the same way that his father had done to him. He may well have even included his father - idk.
      But he would have had that post sex moment of clarity every man gets, but with him, it would be immense shame & guilt - and rightly so of course!
      But with that clarity....knowing that he was caught anyway...he ended the cycle of a use right there ,& then.
      It's quite the mind fk to think....that by killing his kids and himself....he may have prevented even greater evil, of the ongoing cycle of abuse through God knows how many generations! God knows how many generations had it already been going so for...??!
      3? 5? 7? 10? 20?? 50????
      You cannot say Josh did a "good thing"by burning his children alive (the method itself has earned him a special dungeon in hell!). But you can recognise that potentially, even MORE harm... incalculably more...would have otherwise happened.
      Both file, evil alternatives...

She thought he was just her father in law and she showed him her legs and how smooth they were. There was absolutely nothing sexual she was doing towards this man. He was just a weirdo and for you to victim blame that shows where your head is. This man literally filmed young girls and women in the neighborhood for sexual gratification. Do you actually think she was doing something with him if he was secretly filming her? Instead of trying to blame the victim, blame the sick man that enjoyed watching child porn.

    Your videos are well produced and well researched. What I enjoy most is the balanced, objective treatment to these crime stories. Your channel deserves way more subscribers. Most channels either make the mistake of sensationalizing with biased and judgmental retelling or superficially inflate the "quality" of videos using expensive stock footage. You have the real thing here. This is my favourite crime channel after JCS and alongside Brief Case. Thanks for the quality uploads!

      Ironically, what was on his computer was actually downloaded before he owned it. They used it to try and trap him into an arrest, but the system failing to cut child visitations entirely, it escalated the situation to the point that it was when that poor visitation worker made those calls - two calls - to 911 for help and dealt with entirely uninterested dispatch who couldn't be bothered to listen to even the basic info provided. Both dispatch and law enforcement in the area have since been criticized for their role in how this played out, and _rightly_ so. No one believed then or now this horrible man and his father were innocent... but the entire operation to investigate and arrest was a dumpster fire.

Steve and Josh Powell destroyed Susan and her family. And the brother - before taking his life, why couldn't he leave a note stating where Susans body is? He knew. I've watched a few videos delving into this case, a couple of them being very informed and very deep. Josh's brother Michael knew where Susans body is. Letting her family know would have cost him nothing. Josh was already gone so he obviously couldn't have been convicted for anything. And Michael was moments away from death, so he wouldn't have had to pay the price for anything. The only good thing about this whole story is that every one of that family of low-lifes is gone. Steve and his two sons. Good riddance to them. And R.I.P to Susan and her baby boys ❤️

      If evil didn’t exist, then we wouldn’t have the capability of understanding “Good”. There would be nothing for “Good” to compare to, nor contrast with.
      Its a dichotomy, Good - Bad(evil) and thus each exist as opposites of each-other, which is why I mentioned Yin&Yang……

      He should never have been allowed to have those visits to begin with! He made the boys sleep naked with him in bed and had tons of Cihld_Pron on his computer, how was he allowed to have contact at all is my main question.

I can't even believe that there was so much "clumsy" handling of this whole case from beginning to end. The fact that Josh walked free to the point that he was able to kill his kids during a "supervised visit" is such a slap in the face to the justice system. How did we get this far without being able to pin him down? Those kids had so many chances to be saved. Absolute heartbreaker.
