Please do a case from colombia is a very popular here
Luis Alfredo garavito
You are so amazing! You are my favorite true crime UA-camr! Can you please do a video on the case of Hailey Owens out of Springfield, Mo USA? Im not great at researching and I can only find snippets of news articles about what happened. I remember her case affected our whole community. I think people need to hear her story!
Danielle, you really know how to sell your fish. That was exactly what I was looking for to watch Gypsy's new series : )
Case request: Angus sinclair
Hey Danielle, please do a case on the 'Children of God' cult
kik genuinely played such a large part in my childhood victimization. i don’t even want to think about how many grown men saw my underaged naked body because they convinced my 12 year old self it was the cool, mature thing to do. it’s so embarrassing and makes me feel so ashamed and horrible. sending love to anyone who was victimized in any way ❤
Sending love your way and thank you for sharing part of your story, as a victim of this it helps me feel stronger❤️
i’m a victim of that as well but we shouldn’t feel embarrassed or ashamed, the men should, we did nothing wrong, we were children
This! And Omegle
I can relate so much to this as a kid in the earlier 2000’s-2010’s i am petrified of what i could be influenced to do or say on omegle or kik because i just didn’t know any better and had unlimited internet access. i hope you’re doing okay ❤️
Me too I’m sorry you had to experience this I went on bc I was already being sa and I completely understand
David went to my high school and we were all horrified when the details of this case came out. His name was always getting announced over the loud speaker for sports recognitions and he seemed like the perfect student. It’s terrifying to think that someone I passed in the hallways at school went on to do something so despicable. My heart breaks for Nicole’s family ❤️
This why always hated in school people acted like ones who played sports were osoo perfect couldn't do anything wrong or bad yet literally they tortured me even at a young age in elementary they would tell me kill myself I got ptsd because that school system sucked because no matter what me and my family did it never stopped
@@EmilythematerialgurlI’m so sorry you had to go through that. Wish I could give you a big hug right now. 💞
USa, sorry...@@Emilythematerialgurl
I had a 33 year old man say he would leave his wife and NEWBORN child for me. I was 13. More things happened but that one really stuck out to me.
WHAT?! 🤮 why was a 33 year olr man talking to a 13 year old?!?! 😭
I hope you are not flexing or feeling proud about that? It was very wrong of him to talk to you and I hope you are now safe and have had therapy to understand what was happening here?
@@zombiechicken7114 How are they flexing?
@@zombiechicken7114it’s obvious they’re not flexing 🤨🤨
I experienced something really similar, at 12… 😮
I had a teenage boy, a few years older than me (in high school) say to both me and his friends that I was the only girl to ever understand and “like” him, which made me extremely uncomfortable. 😅
I had assumed he was a girl (due to both his profile picture of a girl and also the fact I never asked for his gender) and was comfortable talking to him that way, after finding out he was actually a man, I ended up blocking him after a few days (this all happens within the span of TWO weeks) and he just lost it. Acted depressed, saying that he lost the only girl who ever liked him and that he cared for…🙃
He never even asked for my age, and we weren’t even close or anything. Just two weeks of talking. 🫠 I ended up relating a lot to the victim in this case. So sad to hear that so many people, like you and me, have gone through such a similar experience and yet she lost her life. May she and all the other people who lost their lives in a similar situation rest in peace.
I block any guy that asks if I have kik. Biggest red flag, always dodgy if thats the only way you want to contact
I agree! 👏🏾👏🏾
Same
I don’t know a single female friend of mine that wasn’t on kik and had grown men messaging us. Like idk how this app is still a thing
My daughter was on this app and I ended up blocking the app on her phone the amount of grown ass men who were asking my then 13 year old daughter for sexual pictures was disgusting 😢 I reported all of them but nothing.
I am pretty sure you cannot "block" kik. You can uninstall it. Can you elaborate on the info, please?
@@wrongturnVforI know if you have google parental access there is a setting where parents have to approve apps that the child requests to downloaded (my sister had this).
@wrongturnVfor I placed parental controls on her phone and added all the apps I did not want her to have access to under password protection.
@@ShelleHolley From my understanding KIk bypasses that, no?
Praises😉@@ShelleHolley
Completely laughed out loud when you said "I'm 80 years old inside." I can relate 100%!
Truth, same here, cannot relate to all this psychotic chaos.
Same lol
Yep me too! I’m actually knitting while watching you 😂 and I for sure don’t know about social media.
I giggled as well. I’m 36 years old. I feel young at heart but my back is 93 years old and when I wake up in the morning I have to move slowly so that I don’t get whiplash or pull a muscle. 😂
@@Sorilia4 if it makes you feel any better my sister in law knits all the time and she is about to turn 13 years old this spring. Lol
I remember when my oldest was about 15 & was apparently using this app. Her mental health went to 💩, she started self harming & I couldn't get to the source of the issue. She had NEVER been a kid who acted out or showed any signs of depression before; but I also knew she was a teen. Come to find out much later, she was being targeted thru kik by bullies & grown, nasty men. She felt conflicted about blocking people. Her ❤ was too pure & she thought she would hurt feelings.🤦🏽♀️ So glad we are passed that now.
That’s what happened to my sister with autism, when she started using this app she started self harming & sending nudes & she was NEVER like that before this app. It ruined her mental health as well….it breaks me how big this app is to many..
I used this app too in the past 3 years and drove me crazy!!! It's filled with all types of hackers and POS people ! It's crazy!
It’s shame that governments don’t BAN this app. They could if they really wanted to, clearly nothing about anyone or anything bothers them, they aren’t interested in ANYTHING EXCEPT lining their own pockets !!!! 😡😡😡
But see this is what I don’t understand, how did your teenager have full access to social media like this?? I don’t understand parents not restricting their child’s social media knowing what is out there.. it’s really really not hard to put blockers on basically everything they use
@@kelseywelsey2924 well, considering it was 2012 & I wasn't even fully aware of how to use a smartphone, or which apps were even available at the time, I gave her a phone w/wifi access only. There were many times that I did restrict the wifi access at home, but I also wasn't sure how to use the parental settings, or even the majority of regular settings. I'm not 'old' persay, but as Danielle says, I'm 80 inside. 🤷🏽♀️ Also, I am my own worst critic; and now know what I missed back then.✌🏽
I went to school with Natalie & it’s still so shocking she was involved with this. I hope the victims family is healing. KIK should have never existed.
I was like that as a teen. Got bullied at school and I needed all support I could get from online and wherever.
That message she wrote to David calling herself annoying reads exactly like the things I would write as a teen. I’m just so glad that dark period of my life is over.
I'm so sorry that you went through that. I've never been bullied in school. By an ex husband , yes. It took me years to get away from him. My daughter was very bullied in school. No matter what I did , it didn't stop. She is 24 now and unfortunately she is now in jail. She chose a group of friends that she thought were accepting. They led her and themselves right to jail.
@@vanessaarnell thank you, and I’m very sorry to hear about your situation as well. I think I can understand your daughter’s situation. It’s a fine line between hanging out with the fellow misunderstood outcasts and with the actual outlaws. I hope your daughter’s life will take a turn for the better.
@@vanessaarnell I was super bullied in school, and ended up a drug addict, but I got clean twice at 24 and finally for the last time at almost 26.. I'm 42 now and haven't touched anything since. All you can do is just be there for when she's ready, (it would have been a lot easier to get myself together if I'd had a support system instead of being alone after foster care, I cannot stress enough how important it is.), it may take her a few times of falling down and getting back up.. just don't give up. 💜
Also, never give money over $6, (can't really get any drugs with that, it should be enough to ride the bus in two directions for appointments. If you give a bus card make sure it's only got enough for a few trips, you can add more online, but she can sell bus cards and gift cards, you only get usually a third of the monetary value), it's better to give groceries and necessities. Also, keep narcan in the house, you can find all kinds of places that give it out for free. I have saved more than a couple lives with it, and even if she isn't doing opiates it may be in other drugs.
Be sure to take care of yourself too, easy to forget to do that when your child is struggling.
I feel the same. My self esteem was very low at that age and when I heard her letter, I instantly felt those feelings all over again. I'm so proud of the strong woman I've become. I'm glad you're in a better place too 💙
@@Lunar.baby.x23 I’m glad you’re doing better as well!
I was always a little fighter and I look back on my teenage self’s creativity and courage with pride, but when I read random things I wrote down during that time and when I think deeply, I remember how much a loathed myself because of all the bullying and all the general puberty trouble. I’m really glad it’s all behind and I made it out alive and stronger as well.
"It shouldn't be called Kik, it should be called PEE-DOH."
-Danielle's famous words 😂
Honestly, these famous words made me absolutely cackle.
Yeah I completely LOL'd on that one.
she sounds so angry in that part 😢
when you mentioned kik my stomach turned. i’m in my mid twenties and the amount of people my age group who were in kik and got taken advantage of by predators in our youth is alarming. as usual, great job covering the case and having respect for victims
Same i was literally groomed, i caught on but there are so many others who i know wouldn’t have and my heart breaks for them🫠🥲
I don't know if it's still running but I went straight upstairs to my 13 year olds room and asked if she had it. Thankfully she'd never heard of it! It's terrifying!
Same! I'm also 25 and had similar experience with kik at 13 as did friends
@@annabelshepherd4692 it was more of a thing around 6-10 years ago
10 years ago, i turn 22 in a month; i had the same experience on Kik at 12. it’s scary. took me a while to recover from. as i got older, it made my stomach turn as i realized more and more what it all was. i was vulnerable and just wanted friends. i think kik should be taken down in all honesty. it’s definitely a lot more different on there now than it was in 2014 with being able to livestream and such and the newfound anonymity with no verifications in place.
this hits hard. i’ve been groomed on kik and forced to show off my body at a young age and i can’t thank you enough for raising awareness about this. brought me to tears :,,)
I’m sorry this happened to you and I hope you are doing ok xx
I haven't heard of Kik either,& my daughters almost 12.Was Sooo glad to have this brought to light also,& had a very long talk w my little one about the dangers.Sorry to hear that about u @puppybitten3370 That's awful💔
Yes. I was only born 3 months after Nicole and can relate to being on kik at such a young age. Makes me sick to think of it now
The fact the government knows about this site and how it’s used but refuses to shut it down is crazy. Its literally trafficking children yet they do nothing 🤬
bc theyre in on it
This sweet baby didn't deserve this, this is devastating. I cannot fathom how she must have felt from excited to absolutely terrified, my heart breaks for her & her mother. They were monsters.
I had full internet access as a child because the internet in the early 2000’s was so new and my parents weren’t familiar enough to limit me. I was a part of kik and omegle. Both of these are sooo inappropriate and dangerous for children. i know from personal experience.
Same…💔💔💔
Agreed 😢 I was born in 2001, and I live in VA too. Too close to home and so heart breaking. Honestly they need to take the app down …
Same here, in the early 2010s I was a minor with unrestricted internet access and full reign to explore it. Met, saw and experienced some horrible things.
It really pisses me off these murderers think they have the right to take away someone's child. RIP baby girl ❤
This is the first time I've ever heard of Kik, and I'm from the USA. I, too, must be 80 years old inside!
Also, looking through the comments and seeing how many people were targeted, groomed, and victimized as children is sickening. This breaks my heart. I hope you all are doing ok.
I heard of it was I still on dating apps but would always ignore the guys that asked if I had it. Wasn't downloading something else to talk to someone but didn't know all of this about it. I feel so sorry for anyone that was victimized through that app or otherwise. I can't even imagine
How does a supposedly educated 18 or 19 year old not know that it takes physical contact to get someone pregnant? Make it make sense!
I think he just lies a lot. He did this for the hell of it.
I think as people were talking about him with a girl at the party he thought it might have been her.
Never heard of being sheltered? Hell it’s really bad in states like Utah because they refuse to teach sex ed and teens and young adults there don’t know what condoms are.
@@astrowolvezhe had access to the internet, was in college, knew how to use google, played sports, etc. Thats not sheltered.
@@leviniahill454 I honestly doubt he thought he got her pregnant. If he thought they slept together at the party, he just could have asked her online. I'm sure he knew she would contact him after she saw him in real life. He didn't think he got her pregnant, he just wanted to kill her (maybe because he thought she was clingy or some stupid reason like that)
There should be an independent investigation into the creators/owners of these Apps as it wouldn’t surprise me at all if some are themselves involved in Child Exploitation…absolutely disgusting this is tolerated 🤬
As a person that lived less than 30 mins from vt and was young teenager victimized on kik during this horrible crime is horrifying. R.I.P to Nicole, this innocent young girl that fought so hard for her life and it’s heartbreaking that a mother had to bury their child. Praying for her mother, her family, and loved ones
I live in Alavista(population2500), home of the Lane family who built Lane Stadium. So sorry you had to thru all that.
One of my exes is actually in prison right now for SA his own daughter and sharing photos of her on kick to other pedos. He’s a sick man and he deserves what he got. I still feel gross to this day knowing I was dating… not just any pedo, but an incest pedo. All he ever did was bash the mom and say she doesn’t deserve the kid and that his daughter would be better off with him. I’m so glad he got caught and never had the change to have custody of the kid… he was 20…
How old was his daughter at the time?
There she is
Ikr I been waiting
Me toooo
She posted last week too it takes a while to research and make videos I love Dani ❤very dedicated
She posts every sunday. Unless she posts on her community page that she wont be posting@@slumpedsloth3233
150th like
‘She would be 21 years old if she was alive right now’ broke me. She had so much to live for 😞 Rest in peace beautiful.
She would've actually been 22 going on 23😕
Yo that part shocked me because literally she was on age with me when this happened. I literally didn’t have a phone until I was 16
Spoiler comment...
the fact that she'd be around my age is heart wrenching, I was so much like her at that age.
@@decentpeoplesalldayI mean I think we knew where this was going from the title. Also “spoiler” is used for films/stories where the plot is ruined. Someone expressing sadness at a a child dying, is not a “spoiler”. This is real life.
I have never even heard of" Kick",myself .So it made me SOO disgusted that I've went through my own 11year olds phone just to make sure that app isn't downloaded,& had a discussion with her about the dangers of it & all the preditors on the app.Thank u Danielle for bringing this case to light Sooo sad.😢Great episode tho,as usual.🖤We all love u!Thanks again.🌙✨
Its called kik btw
@@tiffanymusk thanks I appreciate that fix ya did for me U learn somethin new ever day👍😏
Every
kik isn't as popular these days - but I'm sure there are other apps so I'm glad you talked to her about it!
i've just had the same conversation with my daughter. thankfully she's intelligent and is aware of the dangers, her school has presentations every year on the dangers of online and dodgy people. She thinks people like Daniel are sick in the head, she said she wouldn't even think of talking to strangers and would block a friend if they talked to her in a sexual way.
you are such a safe space. i’m so glad these victims get spoken out about thanks to you ❤
I live here, and I remember when this happened. My daughter was about 10 at the time and was friends with her cousin. So heartbreaking. There’s been a lot of tragedy around VA Tech. Thank you so much for covering this case. You give these innocent victims a voice, and work so hard to preserve their memory. You’re my favorite UA-camr!
Thank you so much for stating that two things can be true at once. Cause at my high school, when girls came forward to report a boy for sexual assault (myself included) it was downplayed cause, “He’s only 17 and this shouldn’t ruin his life”. It’s been 4 years since high school and he is still harassing women, even worst this time.
lol i just shared a post on fb that said “you couldn’t survive 5 minutes in the asylum i was raised in” and it was a picture of kik. i def had like 10 grown ass men as boyfriends. shit is crazy looking back at it
He actually lived in my freshman dorm at VT. I remember seeing him once at a party and it gives me the creeps to this day. To think a killer lived only a few floors above me…
I’m a soon to be a 63 yr old woman, a mother and grandmother and this is the first time I’ve heard of this app.
Me too.
I was groomed on kik as a kid. I had a "bf" from when I was 12-15. He was a 26 year old. I hope the app eventually gets taken down! It's horrible and I know so many people who also had kik growing up!
Thank you for covering this case and bringing awareness to how vulnerable children are on the internet. When I was 15 I thought it was okay. As someone who craved attention, I was taken advantage of by some who were anywhere from 4-10 years older than me. If it weren't for my parents monitoring me and sending me to therapy, I could've ended up somewhere hurt or worse. I feel for Nicole and her parents 😢
This is why PARENTS need to watch their kids closer than ever!
Too bad teachers and everyone are making parents the enemy. So upsetting
Watching isn't enough. I've had the conversation about online safety and personal things that should only be shared with close friends and family. We've talked about since they were 8 and 9. They're 16 and 17 now, and we still talk about it periodically.
@@loopygurl2 they’re not the enemy. They’re 1st line of defense & good judgement. Might just save their child. My parents never talked to me about drugs…but I knew when my ‘friends’ were in school bathroom huddled around makeup compact exactly what they were doing & wanted nothing to do with it because the TEACHERS taught us about drugs.
They won’t though. Because these days parents are lazier than ever and instead of paying attention they allow their kids/teenagers to have full access to social media and they don’t bother checking. As long as the child is out of their face they don’t care
@@celestialdragon330well clearly not all schools in all countries are equal in what and how they teach. I do think that parents need to be very restrictive on what they allow their children to access and who they talk to, constantly checking their chat….a condition of being given the privilege of any device. I grew up without them , mobile phones didn’t exist. ! They WILL survive, as much as they may hate it, it’s who they are talking to that is the problem! The brainwashing, grooming happens very quickly with children.
I remember this Heartbreaking Case! That Innocent Little 13 year old Girl Nicole just breaks my heart! Poor Little Girl!🥀🥀🥀🥀🙏🙏🙏🙏💔💔💔💔🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Amanda Todd is a case from BC, Canada who was exploited incessantly and finally took her own life. I’d be interested in hearing your take on Miss Amanda. Another convoluted and horribly tragic Canadian case is that of Reena Virk of BC. Her ringleader murderer Kelly Ellard would make your blood boil!
Oh I remember hearing about the Amanda Todd case back at the age of 10. It was a sad case.
She’s freakin 13!!!!! She beat death and somehow still met death at such a young age. I feel for her mom and Nicole’s soul. This is heartbreaking
I wish kids could just stop with the bullying and the mean comments. I like to think its gotten better at a lot of schools, but it hasnt, its just moved online, where parents, teachers etc can't over hear. I have a preteen little girl and this story just distroys my heart...
What a sad story. I can't believe how tragic this little girls life was. She had childhood cancers, many bullies and then this creep! I hope she is finally at peace now.
I’m so glad you’re covering a case about kik, this app is not talked about enough with all the predators on this app ☹️
As a survivor of grooming via a 1-900 chat line as a 14 year old in January 1990, the internet is terrifying for me as a mom. It’s SO much easier now to access children today than it was when he found me 💔
Thank you for talking about this app. I'm a mom of 4 kids, and it's hard to keep up with all of the apps and dangers that are CONSTANTLY popping up for them.
We do go through their electronics and watch them closely, but it's like whack-a-mole with this stuff!
She’s the best around, nobody compares to Danielle. She’s genuinely so kind and caring when she tells the stories ❤
Every time i hear this story, i cry. The unfairness of her short life, from so many illnesses to betrayal and murder. May she rest peacefully in paradise 💔😢
When i was 18 I had a relationship with a 27 year old man. I know its not illegal but Jesus, as an adult looking back I realise how horrific this was. I was really lonely and having a very difficult time with my mental health due to some physical health issues I was facing so I was very vulnerable. Thankfully it was a short relationship as I came to my senses quite soon and met someone my own age. Im 31 now and cant imagine dating an 18 year old! An 18 year old is still a child in my eyes. I wouldnt even date someone younger than about 26 I think!
Same girl I was 15 he was mid 30s but I was so naive I believed he was late 20s makes me feel sick now z
@joannab7504 I hope you're okay! 15 is so much worse; what happened to me was really sketchy but yours is downright grooming! I hope he didn't have too much of an impact on your life 💕
This is just sad, and as far as what he did, that is overkill; she was groomed, and seeking attention just heartbreaking. Thank you for sharing this Danielle, much love to you.
That poor girl. Sometimes it's hard to want to live in this world, when there's such cruelty (And while I know their minds aren't fully developed yet, I'm including the bullying cruelty of children in this statement). Well presented as always, Danielle - yours remains a favorite channel BECAUSE of the way you honor the victims of these atrocities. Stay amazing.
Very, VERY unfortunately, when someone is lonely, and they get the impression that someone is attracted to them, and cares about them, The pull is almost irresistible. Even myself, at 48 years old, is not immune to the need to be wanted by someone. This is where the danger of grooming exists.
Thank you for covering this story!! Nicole was a family member of one of my old coworkers. I never got to meet her, but she seemed like a lovely girl from what I was told. ❤️
Storm Isha is wilding out, and im so grateful to be all cozy with a cup of tea and have a new danielle video 😊 thank you
Nichole’s message to David is so heartbreaking
"I'm 80 years old inside" I don't think I have ever related to a statement so much lol.
Me too! I’m a decade and a bit off that number but feel like a dinosaur when I read these stories.
I just have to say one thing. When I was in highschool I used to use Omegle for attention and knew the fact that older man were pedophiles and didn't care. I know that teenagers can't give consent but most of them know it is a bad thing to do and it is illegal. Teenagers are not that stupid
I agree with you 💯 percent that kik should be called pedophile. That is just the craziest thing I've heard. That app should not be a thing 😔. Thanks so much for the video and I hope you have a good rest of your day 💕
This case is so sad but also so validating I was groomed at 13 by someone who was 18 and I ended up being assaulted for a year by him and I was blamed for it. I hope her family finds peace
Thank you for covering cases like this because it’s very validating to hear your firm stance on online predators and it makes me give my younger self more compassion
I used to use kik when I was younger and I was groomed by so many men and sent out pictures of myself as a child that I can't bear to think about now that I've got kids of my own. That app is linked to so many grooming cases its horrendous but fuck..
I’m sorry this happened to you 😭 xx
@@itslaylaplays.8869 it's weird because it felt normal I was 12 with a 21 year old boyfriend worked at the carnival us kids went too and that I take my kids to 🤮 thank you so much for your comment your so sweet xxxx
When she said she was a 'sociopath in training', i just know she romanticised the Joker and Harley Quinn's relationship.
I actually had a conversation with my ex boyfriend and he told me he was communicating with an 18 year old. (He's 30). He didn't see the issue and even said he was just trying to be friendly because she was in a hard place (no social friends, new to the country) and said it was just going to be a sexual relationship. He even went as far to say, it would be 'perfect' because she would be easier to influence/course her to do things, and he could easily mold her into liking things he liked. At the time, he didn't understand why I was using the words, GROOMING to describe what he was saying to me. He said all of his friends agreed with him that they would all also do the same thing given the chance. He even argued according to law, it's okay, so in his eyes there's nothing wrong with it. I agrued he didn't even know when she turned 18, and is still just a teenager.
Moving forward, he decided to meet her and take her to a hotel, and immediately had police knocking on the door. Apparently she was only 17, and an orphan, and when she didn't return that evening, they hunted her down. He still doesn't see the problem besides her lying. 😬🤢
Damn. I'm glad he's your EX boyfriend. You dodged a bullet
@@HurricaneScully it's a really behind wild to watch how much he's changed since we've broke up. He was very into meditation and to make better of yourself. We've had a very good friendship but this totally came left field. so wild. So disgusting.
This is extremely heartbreaking💔💔 poor baby rest in peace Nicole. You didn’t do anything to deserve the life you had baby girl. I feel so bad for her mom too, I just can’t even imagine. I hope she finds peace in her heart.
I was born in 96, and I was never preyed online. Keep in mind, I also had unsupervised Internet access.
My theory is that it was because I was obsessed with Law and Order SVU. That show was amazing at myth busting and talking about social issues.
I could have written this myself!! I’m ‘95, I feel like I was hyper aware that strangers were dangerous and I had free rein and my own desktop in like fifth grade!
Yes we grew up with Stranger Danger.. periodt..and taught my daughters the same. They were on Kik btw
I'm a year younger than you and same. Except I wasn't obsessed with Law and Order. I was just playing dress up games. I used to play Imvu, Gaia etc but I wasn't very social. Even then I just didn't talk with people so I didn't pay attention to it. I was sheltered but I was introverted and kind of aware of these things. One time a man tried to convince my friend to get into his car to show him where the closest bank is and I basically stopped her because it seemed weird to me that he asked us for direction plus the bank was so close you could see it so why would we need to get into his car. Anyway he drove off without my friend.
I was obsessed with SVU, born in ‘95, but I definitely had a KIK and bad experiences with adult men 😂 sometimes the bullying and desperation for acceptance is too much
'97, I was very much skeptical and unwilling to trust anyone but still got preyed on. I started using the internet at 5 and was very careful, hadn't gotten myself into any kind of trouble until I was 14. By that point I'd been online for 9 years. You'd think I'd have known better. But nope.
The fact when you logged out it automatically deleted your messages, which is why it was appealing to younger people because parents were just trying to help but we didn’t think like that
24 year old female here from uk and i remember using kik and omegle because my friends used it. And this was a problem even then 10 years ago! I feel embarrassed how i was so stupid speaking to people i didnt know, i really thought i knew better then! Now i suffer with trauma thinking of my past and i really feel worthless now i am a grown woman and unlovebable. Im so mad at my younger self for not knowing better and being so stubborn 😢😔😔
I had also used Kik when I was a young teenager (also about 10 years ago). I had done some pretty questionable things because I was groomed into thinking I was mature for my age. I thought I knew what I was doing.
Please do not be too harsh on yourself. You were a child, of course you are going to think you know better! They were the adults in the situation, they knew better. You are still lovable no matter what!
It will take time to overcome the pain of being used/violated. You are not alone, you are still beautiful no matter what! I wish you the absolute best!
You are so lovable
Thankyou for the kind comments. I really appreciate it, it will definitely take time but in'sha'allah things will get better. Finding islam helped alot in my journey alhamdulillah but I still have struggles with my self worth, knowing my past is embarrassing.
But thankyou so much for the encouragement and supoort truly
Please keep on being strong as you must be having survived this trauma. We can’t change the past and do not blame yourself or devalue yourself. You have shared your experiences with us which tells me just how resilient you are. Please be kind to yourself. ❤
Yall really so sweet and deserve the best in life. Please protect yall hearts because they are truly so pure and kind. Thankyou so much for taking the time to even reply to me and make me feel better, truly you dont know how much these words mean to me ❤❤❤😭🥺
Child exploitation happens on the internet now more than ever. It’s depressing that even after all of these tragedies and all these people coming forward sharing how they were groomed, people still get away with it… This story is so sad…
It always really baffles me when people commit murder to cover up some other unsavoury act. Like I don’t want people to find out I’ve had an affair, am a paedophile etc etc but it doesn’t cross their mind that people will find out they’re a literal MURDERER. Like how is that not worse?! Or they have committed a separate, less severe crime and then try to cover it up with murder. Make it make sense. How are people that thick that they think they won’t get caught. So horrible for Nicole and her family 😔 it’s a scary world out there these days for parents of teenagers and for teenagers themselves
YES! I'm always like, "JUST GET A DIVORCE!" It's scary how little so many people value human life!
Yes, just like in the documentary american nightmare!!
I was definitely part of the kik issues- I was very much a victim from some of those men, I was groomed and bullied by plenty of men bc they “loved me” I’m so glad it never ended this bad for me n my older sister
Sending condolences to the family 🖤🖤
Blacksburg is where I’m from! I was so shocked that you were covering a story that happened here because I watch your videos all the time! … the way you tell the stories and fill in the details on things really draws you in. I’m a big fan of yours.
Having a 12-year-old, this one was rough. The bit about her mom not cuddling her that night just had me sobbing.
This grooming didn’t happen to me on kik but it happened to me on AIM and MSN messenger (showing my age, I know) point is this has been around for so long and these disgusting and poor excuses for human beings have such easy access. I was 11-14 being groomed online by grown men and looking back I’m truly disgusted. I’ve learned to forgive myself because I didn’t know any better- they definitely did. But still it’s absolutely disgusting. And this was happening on the house computer in my mother’s bedroom and I know it’s so much easier now with smartphones being so easily available. It really breaks my heart.
MSN was so dangerous looking back. Some of the things I saw and had said to me when I was like 10 - 15 😳 absolutely gross. These things becoming a thing must have been so exciting for sickos..
Thank you for covering this case! It really hits close to my heart. Nicole would only be a few weeks older than me, and I remember many of my friends when I was the same age (13) using kik and being contacted by predators. They thought it was cool and meant they were special, without having the maturity to realize how they were being groomed. I'll forever be grateful to my mother for not allowing me to have access to social media until I was 16, which may seem extreme but I know it kept me safe during that especially vulnerable time of my life. All my love goes out to Nicole and her family ❤
This is also a tragedy for the donor family. These families feel as though their child lives on by saving the life of another…so to lose the child their baby saved is also horrific (if they knew of them, but even if they didn’t). My son is a heart transplant recipient, which is why I thought of this. Nicole was a beautiful soul and the fact she even met this monster is beyond tragic, let alone losing her life to him. My deepest sympathies go out to her family.
I work at a law firm and the attorney I worked with took on a client who was accused of possession of CP. The second I heard that he was “supposedly sharing images on Kik” I knew he was guilty. I was at one point groomed on the app myself when I was 14-15. Not a single “normal” grown adult would EVER have the app and share images on it. It’s literally flooded with predators.
I must also be a 90 year old inside because I’ve never heard of Kik either. This is such a heart breaking story, he murdered her because of something he’d convinced himself had happened, it’s just baffling. I hope that Nicole’s parents are doing the best they can be under such horrific circumstances and I hope the two of them do horrible time and rot in prison.
He must've done something with a child while drunk or drugged and mixed them both up....
It was nice to see 'Sassy Danielle' show up on this one. 😆 I love how you don't hold back, but show your real emotions in your videos. And how passionately you go at the perpetrators and don't 'sugar coat' their actions. Poor Nicole went through so much in her short time on this earth, only to be brutally m*rdered by someone she trusted. I pray her parents are doing okay, especially her mom since they were so close. (The make-up look is very pretty.)
17:43 lol that was more than a side note. That was a tangent. But, we love you for them. A large portion of why some of us follow you is for your opinions and the personality that comes with that. You don’t just recite a script; you make your views well known. It’s refreshing.
Thank you so much for addressing these issues that are harming children ❤. We need to to be aware
Around 2014 I was on KIK. I was stalked and threatened by someone I supposedly met at a party. I was barely 16. He threatened to r@p3 me, and leave my body in a ditch. He followed me home from school then to work (to all three of my jobs), stalked my step mom (sent me pictures of her outside talking on the phone), sent me pictures of my license plate with my car parked in my spot in our apartment complex, etc. It was terrifying. I filed mutliple reports, and nothing was ever done. This is no joke.
What happened since? When did the stalking stop?
Danielle, I think I've suggested this case to you before but I'm going to again. The Durham family murders in Boone NC back in 1972. My grandmother actually has an original newspaper clipping from the local newspaper when this happened. This case was finally solved after 50 years in 2022. It's an interesting case, for sure! I'm a Boone native, born and raised. I still live here just outside of Boone. I would love to see you cover this case! I have great respect for you! You are my favorite true crime UA-camr and it would be so awesome if you made a video about this case!
Or should I say interesting… RIP
I’d love love to see you cover the case of Rebecca Koster! Such a sad, devastating case 😔 the killer is just so heartless in the way he toyed with her family after killing her.
Of course!! They ALL say, "I didn't know she was 7, 8, 13, or 13yrs old!"
😠 gross!! 😡
the amount of grown men who probably have photos of my child body because of kik haunts me to this day
Thanks for bringing this story into the light and giving this lovely child a voice when hers was stolen....her mother and love ones remain in my thoughts and prayers 🙏 ❤️.... Love your incredible story telling ability and your cry for justice for the victims 😢. Love you lots Danielle ❤!
Wow, I'm surprised this story is being covered! I remember when this happened in my hometown. I was a youth leader and a lot of the kids in my group were pretty tore up about it and were great friends with her. The whole community was in shambles when it happened.
PLEASE do the case of Junko Furuta if you haven't already. It's truly horrifying, the amount of abuse that this poor girl went through.
I live ten minutes from this. Thank you so much for covering this😢! there is so much that happens in small communities in Virginia, so many questions for most aren't covered well or at all! As well as unjust and seems hidden from the members of the communities! ❤❤❤❤I'm sure not just here but everywhere. Wish I knew and had the patience and skills to investigate more of these local crimes myself! Southwest Virginia and the tidewater area in VA should definitely be investigated and reported on! Thx again so so much for this one!
Sweet little girl, I’m so sorry 😢💔 may you rest in peace. To her parents I truly hope they are doing okay. This was heartbreaking to listen to
I know this case my sister who lived with her daughter and her children at that time in the same apartment complex was questioned by the Detectives also my niece's kids on tv...My sister said she would look out the window and see Nicole on the swings/playground by herself she seemed lonely......It was such a sad time....
Thank you for sharing this! Unfortunately, I was about 12 when kik was popular and it was such a weird place… because of the time, I didn’t have the awareness of grooming etc. you’re the first UA-camr who has shared a case about kik
Cases like this are why I’m so protective of the teenagers in my life, both family and the kids I work with every day! Kik and Omegle felt so cool when I was 12-15 and I consider myself lucky that nothing major ever happened to me or my friends 😢 RIP Nicole, truly a beautiful soul that was robbed of the beautiful life you deserved
i currently go to virginia tech where it happened. the place inside where they planned the murder (cookout) still keeps the inside dining closed to this day because of how horrible this was.
Thank you, Danielle for bringing this danger to light through your channel. It helps people of all ages learn and discern and that's extremely needed right now. ❤
i only discovered your channel a week ago but you are now the star of the final stretch of my lawschool exam season😭 sooo glad i found your videos i LOVE your way of explaining these cases
I was in a relationship with a 18 almost 19 yr old right after I turned 15… he was very controlling. I rebelled a lot against it but he told me he would kill himself if I broke up with him… and it went on wayyy longer than it should have. And it did NOT end well… but thank God it ended better than it could have. Eventually he moved in with us… idk WHY my parents let him?? But then we moved in together after I graduated… and I did not want to do it. I had a dorm due to a college scholarship…. It was… a lot.
I could go on… but… when you’re being so controlled… it is SOO hard to get away…
the reason your channel is so successful is because you are so animated when you tell the stories. keep up the good work!
The facts you tell on these real life story's is excellent, but same time applying your makeup on point, apways looks amazing x
Thank you, Danielle, for highlighting how treacherous some of these apps are for children. I am raising two teenagers right now, and we have come a loooooong way in parental guidance with iPhones, but to know there are apps that not only are available but are promoted to teens is terrifying. Be it sex, bullying, or drugs, parents need to stay alert and TEACH their kids through these moments. Nicole was only 13. It all happened in the blink of an eye. I will be praying for her and her family. ❤
I'm terrified thinking of my kids being teens and exposed to so much awful stuff online. They'll be more knowledgeable than I was, at least, and hopefully able to make smart choices.
Thank you for covering this case! I used kik when I was younger and I was definitely exposed to people who were horrible and had bad intentions... harassment and grooming were so common
Thank goodness, I am waiting for you and your wonderful although disturbing story telling. It is almost 1 am in South Africa, and now you just made my day. Love you
Almost 23.00 in Belgium 😊
I love how you do a back story on the perpetrators and the victims so we can better understand them and their situation
