- Geraldo - From Prison: Young Devil Worshipers originally aired on August 13th, 1989, and features an interview with two convicted murderers, Pete Roland and Sean Sellers, who claim their crimes were committed in the name of Satan. Hosted by the well-known talk show personality Geraldo Rivera, this episode is part of his ongoing exploration into controversial and sensational topics that marked his career in television journalism. Rivera became a household name for his confrontational and often sensationalist style, especially in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Sean Sellers, one of the interviewees, was convicted for the murder of his parents and a convenience store clerk. He was the youngest person in the U.S. to be executed at the time for crimes committed at 16, with claims that his actions were motivated by Satanism. Pete Roland was also a teenager when he committed murder, similarly claiming influence from Satanic beliefs.
Unfortunately, the middle portion of this episode was damaged on the tape and could not be restored, but the remaining footage captures a chilling moment in 1980s television history, exploring the dark side of youth crime and its alleged connection to Satanic cults.
Digitized from VHS, this recording preserves an infamous moment in daytime television that captivated and shocked audiences.

I love researching the old Satanic Panic stuff, but gotta say I especially appreciate your inclusion of the old commercials.
I KNO!!!!
After I watched "HATED: The story of GG ALLIN and the Murder Junkies" I was "Duuuddeee!!! How in the hells did Manson become a shock rocker in the 90's?" Then I was
Ohhhhhchyeaa!!! Satanic Panic!!
GG Allin made Manson look like preschool toys for teens! LMADO!
After looking in to these cases seems like the whole "panic" aspect was well warranted... definitely some strange satanic inspired murdered committed around this period

What do you mean "Satanic panic"?
The "satanic panic" was a psy-op misdirection term created and propagated by the cia in order to discredit and shame very real victims of satanic ritual abuse. If you still don't believe that satanism is real then you are really just not paying attention to the world you are living in.
The Satanic panic is back on.
I love how the majority of the "warning signs" listed are just characteristics of teenagers going through puberty.
scary
The devil comes only to steal, kill and destroy. And curiosity killed the cat.
Yes, but satisfation bought it back (cat)
Amen! he’s running the streets
Dummy alert.
I was in the same class with Pete Roland and I would never have imagined him doing that. So sad. Wasn't surprised at the other 2 though
@triciariley1570 Holy Cow!!!
That must have been terrible to hear that tragic news!!
Geraldo may be the only TV personality to be a punchline for 5 decades. That said, this era was some of the best TV entertainment ever. This special and the skin head fight where Geraldo got hit in the face with a chair is pure gold. 🪑
He’s even a card in the Illuminati card game 😮
As a kid of this Era, I can say these were rare. The music didn't make anyone do this stuff, these kids were going to get into something bad one way or another. This stuff is funny, but the killing not so much.
Pete Roland is my grandfather's step son, I'm just in shock that I could've grown up to know this person.
He got out a few years ago.
The fact that they're playing in the song metal music and calling it satanic, is mind blowing. Obviously these kids had other influences other than the music that they were listening to
It was basically a whole movment back then.. called the 'Satanic Panic'.... they even threw Stryper in there, lol...
@@ShiftaelV2 I did hear Stryper sold out. I used to know their lead guitarist Oz Fox before he was in Stryper. He was a character. He worked next-door to where I worked. That's where we met. We jammed on guitars several times. The wall that divided the warehouse I worked in and the one he worked in didn't reach to the ceiling, so we'd hear Oz screamingly singing heavy metal lyrics while he worked.
dont blem metal musicblem this crazy human dont blem satan
Music is nothing but witchcraft
The boys tried to look like men back then now men that are in their 20s and 30s look like boys
Yeah, now let's talk about how many people have been killed in the name of God
Yea…let’s talk about it. None of them know the Living Son Of God.
It’s Religious people you need to talk to. True believers are always the first to be murdered. Including Messiah🔥
😂@@trishkuhne550
That episode would've been 60 weeks long!
Sean Sellers went to school with me and we rode the same school bus. He was definitely a strange guy
Define strange..
He told stories of eating legs off a frog and drinking blood. I saw many documentaries on him, one was of his lawyer crying because he couldn't get Sean's sentence revoked. I want to believe he found Christ, I'm not sure though; the kid could talk, he had the gift of gab for sure. Also, his eyes just seem lifeless.
@@josephdelledonne2098
Eating frog's legs and drinking blood "....strange"??
That is not "...strange".
Introverts constantly sitting alone by themselves and
old ladies living alone with cats are, at the very worst, "strange"
(but are otherwise very harmless and are nothing to worry about).
That dude was just downright crazy😳😳
Love how most of the comments were acting like this was some satanic panic... dude definitely seemed pretty satanic to me... I don't think they hyped it up, these kids were satanic murderers
I never saw this one. I saw "Exposing Satan's Underground", the night it aired, but I do not recall this one. I love this old stuff and remember the time well when all this was going on. Thanks so much for posting this!
I've followed Sean Sellers story. I had tons of followers, and even had a website. One documentary followed his story, and showed his lawyer crying while talking with Sean on a prison phone because they didn't get his death sentence overturned. Sean said "you did all you could for me, and that means the world to me." Also, he said he would be remembered for a long time after his death (referring to his Christian works and website), but I don't think he is remembered by the average person like he thought he would be. I want to believe Sellers became Christian, but I don't know.
Yeah it’s hard to say whether Sellers conversion was legit - and he definitely will not be remembered by many. The satanic panic is long over and religion is dying in this country
@@brianmeen2158 Keep telling yourself that, Son. You're 20 years outta date - ''Atheism'' is a global joke.
@@7homas7Vmaybe religious belief is a problem? I do know in numbers 31 Yahweh had his followers massacre adults, babies and children etc without mercy. Also, they were commanded to keep the young girls as a" booty" as the King James calls it! If one were not a Christian, would this account not be a shocking as what these kids did for their imagined relationship with Satan?
@@7homas7Vhow is not believing in your imaginary friend a global joke?
I remember the commercials back then , I was lucky enough to experience the 80's and the 90's I like how they use to show commercial 's about having a 😊 career. I miss that time of life was so different, there was so much that was happening at that time, but then the influence was good and they're were better TV shows and people weren't so lost, people were so at peace and family's did things as family should kids played outside thank God there was no I pads, or Internet because kids got that chance to play out side and have fun, now Kidz probably don't play with each other because most kid have cell phones and are on it night and day miss out on being kid.
There are a lot of people who do listen to heavy metal,and are not satan worshippers. The music has nothing ro do with what people do. That is the person's choice.
3:10 anybody who knows King Diamond will know that he sings about his evil grandmother more than he does about satan🤣
Sean was executed.
Thank God
what year? what method of execution was used please?
@@martinl.lazarinejr.2781Sean Sellers was executed by lethal injection in February 1999
Gerald is ugh. I can tell he’s spiritualy lost
+The VHS files, great upload.
This is a little sureal. With the commercials and everything. Just looks like it was such a long time ago, when it feels like it was yesterday.
God help us all because we need him and thank you for the uploads 🙏☝️☝️☝️
I adore rock and roll and heavy metal music🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 I put myself through college and became a professional all by myself
I remember Sean Sellers. I was fascinated with his story. Hope he really meant it that hes a christian now so he doest have to be in hell. But ony God knows now.
When he finally got what he deserved he didn't say a word to the relatives of his victims, he didn't even try to make a fake apology so I doubt he was sincere in anything else he said he was.
Actually Sean Sellers also knows now.
I don’t believe in heaven or hell but this also makes life a bit more strange and confusing
Satan also knows, him n God are Partners in Crime
😈

HAIL SATAN!
Penny Schwarz died in 2011. Her son was due to be released August 2021.
You mean he was released at the age of 53?
Penny was my grandfather's wife when this incident occurred.
👿 Demon worshipping
That one Sean. I saw a segment on TV were he was put to death for what he did. It's a shame young people have to ruin their lives this way.
Every time there's fear-mongering about the economy, or lizard people, or Terrorists, it always brings me back to this ridiculous crap.
Some things never change.
WOW.....I was 18 at the time this came out. I remember recording this episode on Beta. I ended up recording over this by mistake. Now to find it 35 years later, and I still remember it. Pete & Sean, two ordinary, athlete, good looking teenagers, the kids from the block, how could they commit murder? Geraldo was big back then and was able to get exclusive interviews. So sad. Thanks for posting.
Like Roland, Clements, and Hardy, the girl that was screaming in court after the judge gave her sentence in the video, Malisa Earnest, was released on parole in 2017.
Thank you for that information. I saw this show decades ago and that scene really got to me. Again, thanks.
Ah the good ole satanic panic.
Sean Sellers was a really good speaker.
They blaming Iron Maiden, but that's BS
💯💯
Megadeth satanic ? ? Do some research on Dave Mustaine. .
Satanic panic was real back then (and now)!
Gay. Narcissist. Sellers is a mean-spirited conman who's lying even when he's telling the truth. Seems a waste, though.
This is the ultimate Geraldo Show title
it really does catch a person's attention!
I'm telling you people right now. They didn't have cheesy like that in the 90s. That was from the eighties in early eighties at that😂😂
Although I hated the '80s and its revisionist politics, the '90s had TONS of cheesy scandal trash like this.
The 90s had bands like Hootie and the Blowfish🤣
They executed Sean Sellers
Good
Some minor justice then
The late 80s the most interesting time for hairstyles
A lot of perms and hairspray lol
Somebody should do a follow up on these guys.hoe they look do they regret it?? ... SOMEBODY???
Classic sound of putting in a VHS tape and pressing play
Brings back good memories!
The Devil double crossed you.

Pete Rolland, Jim Hardy, and Ron Clement have all since been released from prison.
My grandma used to watch Geraldo Rivera every morning at 9 AM on KRON channel 4 in the Bay Area. Sometimes on my winter, summer, or spring breaks she would make me sit down and watch the show. Honestly as a kid, it was boring as heck. I was into watching cartoons. Now that I am an adult, learning to appreciate some of these episodes. Thanks for posting. By the way, I do like some heavy metal music like Ozzy Osbourne, iron maiden, and others. But not to the point where I am a devil worshiper which I'm not. I just love good music.
Good Looking????🤢
Exactly they look awful
That's it! I'm finally going to call Draughon college!
I love how they conveniently edited what the detective had originally said about the Sullivan murder. The detective had originally said that the assailant, after killing his mother, had cut both of his own wrists so deep that he went through arteries and severed the tendons in both hands before he cut his own throat from ear to ear all of the way to the spine. Of course that would be impossible!! First of all he would of either bled out before he could get that far from cutting through arteries in both hands or went into shock. Second how could he cut his own throat especially that deep without the use of his fingers?? He cut through his tendons remember? SMH. Plus this was all supposedly done with a 3 inch boy scout pocket knife. Lmfao. It's all stupid bullshit!!
How Can that Guy Breathe with That Neck fat and Tie on
Whoever recorded this was in or near Tulsa. 😆 that's where I am from!
never blame misic not hardrock this people is sick in the brin this is not satan not heavey metal music
11:33
Was so deep the way he questioned him. That’s why Geraldo is who he was.
Asking the tough questions
Hey, everyone needs to upload these vhs vids. Lists of truth in them

I see no signs of true remorse in them. No tears, no emotions.
Does that really matter? Why is it that people like you feel that it is important that a murderer show remorse. If he does or doesn't, isn't the victim every bit as dead?
Because I do for the ones I murdered. @@antonioacevedo5200

Can't help but wonder if heraldo is behind a lot of this.
That’s definitely a possibility
I know pete and hes a really nice man and the way hes portrayed in this is wrong
Oh yay another person who defends a murderer
He's a cold blooded killer
He's not a good guy.
He literally says he had no regard for life... That's not a nice person.
Dr.charles .R .Jhonson. is the fisrt suspect
At 15.33 cop is only a specialist on eating unhealthy food.!!
In this segment of Geraldo, just like the last one he did on Satanism, he cuts off people with a Christian perspective. Geraldo did all of this for shock value. However, it is actually a thing-whether or not he knew. The demands of Satanism is so outrageous that I think most people dismiss it. What a perfect cover huh? The irony is that someone involved in Satanism is involved in a religion and there are spiritual forces at play. That’s why these guys cannot actually explain what was going through their mind because they were controlled by the demonic. And its no surprise, that the only people who will come out and talk about how to get free are Christians-because they are the only ones who do get free. The spirit of Christ dispels any demonic beings. We even have record of this in the New Testament when Jesus cast devils out of people. It’s a real thing. As well-meaning as they may be, no guidance counsellor, psychologist or psychiatrist will have the ability to bring back a mind that has went that far. The spiritual aspect is completely overlooked and the root of the issue all along.
👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏100% Correct on All accounts. 👍
All this Satanic panic turned out to be fake- look it up.
Not really. this is not reality. This is a failure to critically think. Christianity has (as with many other religions) used to kill. Satan is being used as an excuse. People are sometimes troubled and sometimes just evil/mean and don’t need satanic anything to do it.
If you open your eyes you will see the evil we all can do or be and see the ways to help identify and resolve the issue.
King James was a homosexual.
You are wrong. He was simply trying to prevent this show from becoming a promotion for Christianity. The show is about Satanism and it's effects on young people.
roland was released in 2021
How do you know?
Silly kids in the silly commercials😂😂😂
The commercials are my favorite part!
Geraldo when he had common sense
There is nothing these young men did that is not condoned and commanded in the Holy Bible. Satan disowns these vile criminals. Let Jesus have them.
