      There are so many cases where they found the criminal because the person mentioned something that the police never released publicly, like that there were 12 stab wounds or the murder weapon was determined to be a barbecue fork. Sometimes that there were stab wounds *at all* they don't release publicly and the suspect will be like "I don't know who stabbed her!" even though the police didn't say anyone was stabbed. That's why they keep so much of the investigation quiet, because it's easier to point to a suspect when they mention something that wasn't in any of the reports.

LaCrosse especially got worked up about it and they installed cameras in the parks near the river. What it was, was the simplest explanation. They were drunk, wandering alone, walked downhill which is towards rivers or lakes, and they fell in and drowned. That was it in 100% of the cases. Parents and friends of the people didn't want to admit that their, generally young men, would get drunk and do something foolish like that. But it happened in every instance.

His comment "thank you to my parents for calling the police for a wellness check", let's one know that his parents would rather call authorities instead of simply calling or checking on him themselves. They've reached a point that only professionals are able to help. Again I'm basing that on he truly believes what he is saying.

    There's a reason why random people aren't detectives. Correlation does not equal causation. He even brings up the Smiley Face gang 20:09, which is a classic example of a correlation/causation. Drawing a smiley face is one of the most common things people spray paint. The odds of finding a body near a smiley face is increased because drawing a smiley face is common. That doesn't mean there is a group of people who purposely draws a smiley face somewhere near the body with a different art styles/colors each time.

    As someone with Bipolar 1, I was actually thinking this exact same thing for the entire video.
    The big red flag for me is when Ken said "Thanks to my parents for calling the police and checking to see if I was ok"
    This means that he very likely has a history of either paranoid delusions or manic episodes (both hare very strongly related)
    A private detective did not come to his house. It was more than likely a wellness check to make sure he was not going to do something insane.
    Study his eyes in each video. They progressively get more and more tired, which means he is likely not sleeping, which is something that happens during manic episodes.
    This all reminds me of when I was not on medication and had paranoid delusions like this.

    I'm a dispatcher, so I get dozens of calls per day from genuinely mentally ill people, and people like this gentleman in the video. They just repeat the same points over, in rapid succession and whenever they complain about police not doing anything, it's in regards to them. "They're not letting me in" and "they don't take ME seriously" and "they laughed at ME" and "they won't look at MY data." But never have details about the so-called crimes they know so much about (victim and suspect names), always speak in vague ways, say stuff that will prey on your fear and wrap it up with an obvious "safety tip" like lock your doors, don't go walking alone at night, don't get into cars with strangers. They also tend to look for conspiracies in the slightest thing, i.e., this guy saying the man that was walking and was unaccounted for for 6 minutes and not under surveillance after he'd gone walking at night...implying there's a cover up in the "videos" that should have captured a normal citizen walking wherever for the entire time.
    I am not able to diagnose anyone but I wouldn't be surprised if it came out this guy had been impaired in some way or had underlying issues. Or just plain greedy.

      I disagree. That chances that the same car with different drivers on different occasions approached him like that is almost zero unless he lives in a town with 200 people.
      What you're describing is a combination of paranoid delusions and narcissism. I have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, so I am familiar with paranoid delusions, and I have witnessed the more extreme version that people with schizophrenia have. This guy does not fit anywhere on this spectrum.
      People on the lesser end, like me, do not hallucinate, but we do form opinions based on evidence that is probably just a random coincidences or magical thinking. While people on the other end are having hallucinations about events that never happened or about secret messages coming from God or from the government etc.
      But the thing these ALL have in common, is that if you hear a person who is having one of these episodes, the things they are saying are never convincing or compelling except to people who are in agreement with any bigoted things that might be included in their rants. Gabbie Hannah, Britney Spears, Kanye West and Fousey are examples of this, though I mean no disrespect to them. This guy was just creating a clever publicity stunt. This was not mental illness.

      I had to take a very long walk to work one day when it was cold and snowy, until a woman in a truck pulled up and asked if I needed a ride. At first I told her no, because stranger danger, but she convinced me to get in. Even though she ended up being super nice and explained to me that she was some sort of pediatric doctor, and safely dropped me off at my job, I definitely shouldn't have gotten in her car, even though I was freezing and had several miles to walk. 😅 That encounter very easily could've turned out bad.

There aren’t that many rules for unfiction, but they rarely, if ever, use real deaths of real people and contact those real grieving family. Stories that stray closer to reality usually do try to telegraph that they are in fact fake because this genre of online storytelling has been hit with a lot, especially in the early days, when people assumed that it was real. I know you mentioned it was a possibility, but I’d say it’s not, or if it is everyone is doing a really shit job.

At some point during the movie he is CHASED down by a car and actively being shot at. Come to find out-none of it was real. It was both shocking and terrifying.

      I personally disagree as someone who has both experienced psychosis and others' psychoses, and I also have a degree in art therapy with a concentration on psychology and mental illness. Him showing off the random blue card with a hieroglyphic and talking about how he was working with investigative teams while obviously untrue may seem indicative of psychosis, but psychosis is an extreme distortion of perception and thought process that doesn't present here with typical behavioral symptoms. To me, it seems quite clear that he was building up a persona, story, and following in a way that he thought was subtle and believable while also still making him look like a hero tv detective. He likely does have mental health issues, it just seems to be far more likely in his case that his grandiose behavior is rooted in narcissistic tendencies. Professional help probably is needed. There's a mix of truth and lie in what he says, people should not get into unknown cars because it is an easy way to get abducted, but he uses that as justification to lie about his involvement in investigative operations and boost a following, both for himself and his investments. He tried to "back off" once people began questioning him so he wouldn't have to admit to lying. Obviously I don't know the guy and this is all opinion, but it is a somewhat educated one. It's also worth noting that A Beautiful Mind, while a great movie, was a highly dramatized story that didn't quite accurately portray John Nash's schizophrenia.

    • @Bard420

      It could definitely be, but I wouldn't say it's psychosis. Bipolar mania can cause episodes like this, my mom has it, I'm still at risk of it popping up in myself, but when my mother is manic she literally believes she has powers and that the universe is talking to her and sending her signs. It looks a lot like people who are into crystals, but you can tell she 100% believes everything she is saying no matter how crazy it sounds. It's probably something similar.

I’d guess this guy has never once been to an event at the United Center or Wrigley, because you get absolutely hounded by drivers like this offering rides.
      Hilariously, he also describes one of the most common vehicles and people you will see in major cities - silver Toyota sedan, then later a black suv driven by a man with dark hair and facial hair.
