When I was a pre-teen, we had a neighbor who would pull guns on people for even looking at his house. The mailman stopped delivering to his house because of the threats, and the Girl Scouts refused to work the street because he chased a mom and two girls with a shotgun. When my aunt and uncle visited from another state, he drew on them for parking "in front of" his house, which was actually across the street and another two over. The cops didn't do a damn thing because he was somehow (I don't know how) related to either the sheriff or the police chief. Our nightmare came to an end when he drove to the neighboring state, got pulled over for speeding, then outran the cops before crashing his truck into a tree. He was cremated alive in the vehicle. The neighbors literally shot off fireworks in celebration. The years that followed were some of the best of my youth.
I have a crazy neighbor right now. He is an old drunk guy who lives with his two adult kids and any time kids are playing outside he is standing out there with his arms crossed, just watching them and flies drones over our hours all of the time. Other times he has pulled a gun on my dad and threatened to kill him for mowing “his” grass (it was our grass). He also drains his above ground pool all of the time so that the water floods our yard. We also believe that he killed both of our dogs (long story).
@@appleturnover519 my neighbor makes all sorts of obnoxious ruckus, often past midnight just about every day of the week.... I feel no need to kill him or even start a fight with the guy. Just because you're annoyed doesn't excuse you from acting on your annoyance or anger. Try mastering the art of control over yourself.
& where did you get this information? I didn't see anything about this in the video. Maybe add some sources or only comment on things actually mentioned in the video.
I am a 50 year old USMC combat veteran and I have a 70 year old neighbor that is this guy. I have to carry a firearm on me at all times because of this crazy ol coot. I have had to install security cameras all over my property to cover myself. He came over once and attacked my 15 year old daughter because he said her chickens were keeping him up at night, I had to knock the fool out for that. When the police showed up he tried playing the victim unaware that he was recorded. They threw his old butt in jail for 90 days for assaulting my daughter but when he got out he really went loony. I haved owned my property for 30 years and this man just moved next door three years ago and instantly statred a property line dispute with me, had his property surveyed, the property lines are accurate and tried to foot me with the bill, that is where our problems started. I have lost count of all the times me or my neighbors have called law enforcement on him or his people. He has threatened to kill my entire family so many times we have lost count. I finally told law enforcement that if he shows up on my property again I will assume he is here to carry out his threat and respond accordingly. They informed him of that and he has been fairly low key since but that leaves me little comfort. He wants my property, as he has offered to buy my land multiple times and his nephew informed me that he would harass me until I sold. I told him that the Devil would sell sno cones before I would sell.
Devil Dog...we were in at the same time and our neighbor storeys are very similar. During my civil lawsuit with my neighbor over property i found out that there are many different ways for quiet title and quit claim deeds for aderse possession. I used google scholar and successfully represented myself so the trial was sweet. He was 15 years or so older then me and he had 5 weiner dogs that he would sic on me as soon as he seen me. If i pulled up in my driveway 50 yards away from the property line he would say "THERE HE IS...GIT EM!!!" Those weiner dogs were crotch,leg.and ankle biters...the instant i would kick at 1 the other 4 would launch themselves and i never made foot contact...they duck and their so low i never even got close...lolz Anyway he wound up charging me from 40 yards away with a framing hammer...doing so caused him to catch a concussion and a large pool of his blood 35 yards onto my property. The police give him his hammer back which i claimed as a war trophy. 10 years after that the lawsuits ...the random swatting.and then the f4 tornado in 2021 in ky i finally moved. It took a year before i really felt like i had moved and life is great again. If you could stand it i would tell you to go ahead and move...i sold my old place and a large group pf Mexicans moved in next to him... I know that really bothers him Semper Fi
Openly admitting that you want another man to die to the police is WILD. let alone telling them next time they see you is gonna be on a murder conviction. Man has no chill whatsoever
in my neighborhood this guy called Big Lee kept harassing his old neighbor for no reason for years. Old neighbor got a terminal cancer diagnosis one day. I think you know where this is going, Big Lee sprayed old man with Garden Hose through the window of Old Mans car. Old man pulled his gun and shot and killed him. Be careful who you mess with
Gregory Miller only got 114 days sentence which he had already served while awaiting trial. If anything happens to William Kracker then both the prosecutor and the judge should receive the same fate times 100.
They better be keeping an eye on this man then because I don't know why they would release him for plainly stating something so evil after beating the man unconcious
Barely 3 mins in, I hope when I’m 79 I’m half as tough as William. Chopping/cutting wood at 79 is impressive in itself, and then getting punched 25-30 times and still upright and coherent, dude is a machine!
Ok,if you believe a 79 year old man gets punched 30 times by a guy a lot bigger and 20 years younger....and then can stand up with no signs of pain and a nearly perfect face well,u obviously are big time naive,and never been involved in a fight or have any nothion of what a fight actually is.The grandpa is OBVIOUSLY lying man,come on.
Right? Our neighbors are all a little aloof, but so are we. We all have each other's backs though, plus we all get together for cookouts and Christmas parties, etc...
I had known a guy at the pool room for about 30 years. We weren't friends ,but we weren't enemies either. Once we had an interaction but I just walked away and it was over. One day he came up and started talking about that interaction and I told him , that was 30 years ago, if I was wrong I'm sorry, if I wasn't and you just want to talk trash , i'm not interested. He looked at me really strangely and that was the end of it . A couple of weeks later I found out he had blown his head off because he found out his wife had been cheating on him for years. I felt like if I had answered in a way he didn't care for, he would have taken me with him right then, over something completely ridiculous. Lots of strange units out there.
Yeah you likely pushed that man over the edge with such a lacking answer/cut off. I'm not saying to blame yourself but, that conversation was probably the last thing he had to live for/look forward to. I've been there.
@ZythMusic they said that they said they apologize if they're wrong. You can't tell someone that they probably pushed someone over the edge. But don't blame yourself! That's a lot worse thing to say to someone than "if you're just looking to talk shit over a discussion 30 years ago, I'm not interested". He didn't say he wasn't interested in what he had to say.
I had an old man that lived two houses down who just absolutely hated kids for some reason. I was such a good kid growing up and never did anything bad, but this man despised me. He punched me once when I was walking by him in a grocery store when I was 15. He was arrested for that. A few years later when I was 17 I had just gotten my license and was returning home from school one afternoon. I was home alone and heard a loud bang from outside and something hitting my house. It took me a few seconds to realize he was shooting at my house. I hid, and he continued shooting, walking up to my windows, yelling he was going to get me. It was absolutely terrifying. I had no cell phone because this was back in 2007, so I was in my bathroom with no phone, and a dude trying to kill me. Someone ended up calling the cops and they showed up and ended up shooting him. He survived but died a few years later. I'm very grateful he never killed me or anyone else.
@@johntitorii6676 no, to be completely honest, after I posted this comment I looked at it and thought to myself, why did I add that part in? Nothing to do with the story, I was just remembering the day as it happened lol
He singled you out? That's messed up. It sounds like he was jealous - or maybe saw an opportunity to bully someone. He didn't hate you for anything else though, right? Like, say the color of your skin, wild hair colors, piercings, etc? I had a bully in grade school who hated me the most, was always "hunting" me, til a guy moved into town from a sad town called "Ajax" who didn't take kindly to the bully routine & he was expelled for what he did to my bully. Bully almost lost both eyes from swelling, he has scars from where they had to 'relieve pressure', etc. No more bullying since. Far worse than what I would have done. I assume you're more Zen about it all since you had to make emotional room for it, but I must admit, your story ended exactly as it should have. Grudges are worse for the victims. Always feel like a prey animal, even when all is quiet, your radar is up & relaxing is impossible. Sorry to go all Freud on you, I just know what it's like to be "hunted" (but only fighting, not being shot at...I've been gang beaten but never took fire from a rando nut.).
Perfect comment, although I want everyone to go…up there. He needs to repent of his evil ways. How horrible for William and his wife to live in fear of this psycho.
I mean, we're all going to be either cremated or in coffins when we die. There is no reason to assume any part of our consciousness will linger on somehow and be transferred to another location. I get the concept but it's not the dark ages I don't understand how people still think they will live for eternity
I hope he realizes the error in his thinking. He was projecting his feelings on to the old man. 'He wants me dead too, I'm sure!' I pray he starts enjoying what is left of his life. He should sell the house (wife will find another man w a house) and spend the money far away from that sweet old man and his family.
The police officer handled the situation admirably and with commendable professionalism during the altercation between the elderly man and his neighbor.
He was mad he was cutting wood, in the middle of the night, just before dark. That makes no sense 😂 This guy is dangerous. I'm worried for the poor neighbor he beat up. What an awful man.
Alcoholics are usually incredibly selfish apart from anything and oftentimes very aggressive. They have damaged their grey matter to the point of derangement too by his age
My father and the neighbor had a feud for decades...each one antagonizing the other. It used to embarrass me inside how petty and futile it was. Eventually the neighbor moved out and my father then moved on to his neighbor in the rear. Sad.
That officer handled that perfectly. William and his wife seemed really nice. I’m sure they’re realizing just how lucky they are that the encounter didn’t go any further.
I also feel a bit for the crazy guy. "I'm just a angry alcoholic" whose dying of cancer. He's lashing out and feels like life dealt him a poor ser of cards.
If he has 18 acres and was really cutting his wood right on the property line close to greg's house, I would say William was being petty. I go out of my way whenever possible to reduce noise for my neighbors while I'm working on stuff out back
@@colbyprince9409 It sounded like both houses sit right on the property line. I'm not gonna blame a 80 year old man for cutting wood and stacking wood right outside his house. He's 80. Gregory has no excuse in my book.
My grandfather died of prostate cancer He wasn’t hurting people when he found out he was sick He never even told us Finished the house he built for grandma employed very poor people in NOLA and took care of palomino horses he got me and my cousins. Cancer isn’t an excuse to be a terrible person, Greg.
@@Tennessee17 he used it as a “pity” move He mentioned it to make a sympathy plea and say “I have nothing to lose I’m so scary” I’m aware his motive was because of noise.
@@ViBabyGirl Yeah I believe he said that to let the deputy know he was not afraid of killing him, indeed. Best hope is that he wanted him to die, but said those things because of alcohol. I hope he doesn't actually end up killing old man and his family.
@@ViBabyGirl by the way am I tripping or you just changed username right now? I'm almost sure I replied to an account named Sara Saunders, or I'm hallucinating
My grandfather died recently from a part of his body failing that the doctors couldn't fix. Even during his last weeks he was always kind to everybody. Some people are kind, and others (like the one in this video) are raging assholes.
I was thinking that too, given how much he considers William his fricking archnemesis simply because William does stuff like chopping wood like a normal man and the noise upsets Greg.
@@thenitpickchannel9993absolutely crazy right i wanna see both their perspectives because if William was purposely frustrating at any point; an obviously tempered Gregory, going through his own problems feels as though his final action in an alcoholic daze is to resort to attacking his neighbour several times.
Dude just told the cop he's gonna kill his neighbor next time he sees him. That dude's absolutely insane. I could see him going from how he is now into a blind rage with no provocation whatsoever.
Greg was sentenced to 114 days in jail and 3 years probation. The days he awaited trial counted toward his sentence so he is now free. I pray nothing happens to his neighbor
@@michaelangst6078 the old man should understand and stfu with his loud noise the younger guy could sell the property but his mind isnt thinking straight right because the sickness and if the other dont stfu then Greg should use some headphones, just saying..
What I don't get is, if you're indeed terminal, why waste your last days on some cheap alcohol buzz? I've never had it before, but if I were terminal, I'd have H syringes hanging off of me 24/7!
@@NunchucksHabit if you have been an alcoholic long enough, you literally need it to survive. If the addiction is bad enough, the withdrawal can literally kill.
I don't know if I'm influenced by knowing what happened, but the way Greg talks, his tone of voice, to me it belongs to a person who is not well mentally, just listening him talk gives me chills
Of course he's not well mentally, he's an extremeley intoxicated alcoholic, who just found out that he's got cancer. Together with him being in the AA for eight months, he was probably thinking about changing his life for the better, and then he get's the diagnosis.
Doctor gave him a death sentence. I've tried to think how I would take that last year when my mother was diagnosed all of a sudden out of the blue with stage 4 (end stage) cancer. One day your fine next day you don't feel good a d go to the doctor and he tells you your going to die soon and there is nothing anyone can do about it. My mom stayed strong but I think I'd lose my mind
One of my near 60 year old friends,in pretty lousy health, just moved. He was in a vicious feud with a crazy neighbor at his old house. His saying was "life without a parole is a whole lot less of a detterent than it was 30 years ago" Young people should think that over.
@@lookingoverhell3448 You really think a bondsman is going to take a risk and over 1 million to someone who lives in a trailer and has suicidal/murderous thoughts?
why hes so polite and smooth with the cop and so angry with his neighbour? i dont see any narcissistic trait in this man, to straight and honest, no anger, EWU is wrong here when talking about the fence, a passive aggressive narcissists will probably do not build the fence and start playing loud rap music all night long, so guess what?
@@danieled1158 lol That's textbook narc. A monster to those he has deemed the enemy and super charming and even love bombing others, especially those he feels are treating him decently, which the cop did.
"He was right there in the middle of the night just before dark running his chain saw" After I heard that contradicting statement I knew it was going to go down hill from there.
For being a 79 year old man who was just beaten up senselessly on his own property that man has more composure than I would. Clear spoken and chill even, I would say. What a lovely wife as well. They actually seem like good people. Dude lives in remote michigan and was cutting firewood, man.
@@ws90ninety living with neighbors means the constant hum of building and constrution and wood cutting, etc. this guy was just angry and looking for someone he saw as weaker to take it out on, textbook.
This guy is just facing his own mortality and realizing his failure at life, he is angry about it and taking it out on his neighbour, he is an extremely dangerous man.
Early 1990s when my family first moved to Vegas we had a neighbor. He was a nice guy, no complaints got along with everyone BUT, when he got that cancer diagnosis he flipped out. Grabbed a gun and started shooting wild out his 2nd floor windows. I was thankfully in the back of our apartment bathing my 2 and 3 year olds when my next door neighbors burst into my home screaming. He wasn't trying to really take anyone with him... was trying to do suicide by cop.
I have a coworker that is like this. He has bunch of medical problems from being in service. The guy has depression alcohol problems with many more things. He hates me and said if he ever killed me or anybody else he would do it with his hands. Get better satisfaction from it. We don’t work in same department anymore but seeing this video kind of gives me the chills. Kind of feel bad for him since he fought in battle then got home and the service won’t even help him with his mental problems. Just hope he doesn’t flip one day and shoot up work or come to my house.
I'm guessing he probably hates many people or finds another person anywhere he goes. I'd still take precautions since anything can happen and it's scary.
I'm guessing he probably hates many people or finds another person anywhere he goes. I'd still take precautions since anything can happen and it's scary.
he was most likely abused mentally and physically as a child, possibly even sexually assaulted as a minor. He def has some sort of PTSD since the noises bother him and agitate him. Could be signalling his childhood trauma.
Cancer can make people do strange things but it's so hard to feel any empathy for this dude, I feel he'd had kill his neighbor whether he was diagnosed with cancer or not. Going so far to threaten his children and grandchildren is beyond macabre. This dude needs counseling and therapy and to stay away from people in general.
With the history of alcoholism, it's not too surprising that it spiraled even worse for him when he realized he did have more to lose in life. Even more common if they're alone in life. I felt the same before my diagnosis but it's even more sad to see some turn to hatred and anger when going through it versus doing good before your time's up.
prostate cancer is generally not terminal. Unless it has spread to other organs, it is treatable with surgical removal, radiation, and chemotherapy with a fairly good prognosis as cancers go.@@orektez
Any stories of what a cancer diagnosis makes people do? Just curious how potential or certain death makes people do, the stranger stuff like core routine or something
@@Dudemon-1 the he didn't have to say this and that about his property and family. I get that he has cancer but he really didn't have the right to do that to William who is very old. William may have been hard of hearing or maybe he can't do things far from his house due to age or circumstances, just like my grandma's sister. She also got I to a fight with a neighbor like Gregory. But she's just old and it's getting harder to hear clearly or work far so she had to work at home. The machine she uses is very loud, so it's really annoying. But what can she do? Starve? I also met people who acts like Gregory while guarding our property - they come and complain even if their house is a few feet away from ours to say that we were loud and annoying. When we brought them to the authorities to settle the dispute it turned out that they were annoyed that our car would leave the house every minute to buy stuff and return with many things( not my words but theirs) as if we were 'rich' and not some dirty farming family who grow corn and take care of sheep for a living ( their words). Even the police said it was laughable how they said the way we cut trees and grow corn annoyed the neighbor when it's natural to make noise while doing so. So I don't think an old man working on his property is being inconsiderate. Gregory just have attitude issues- he even repeated how he worked as a janitor (which is a very commendable job, idk why he seems so bummed about it.) And William have all this good stuff and good family. If it's not jealousy of a man who is alone and had issues and simply unlucky in life, then I don't know what.
@@Dudemon-1he wasn't being inconsiderate though, he was cutting wood on his own property and stopped before it got dark, the fact you have came up with this after hearing he hit a 79 year old man 25 times the threatened to kill him, his children and grandchildren says more about what kind of person you must be.
this man cannot tell a lie. WAY too honest, but good thing in this situation, they should not let him go back to that place, or we will all be hearing it on the news. justice system has to absolutely do their job here.
Unfortunately the "justice" system considers its job to be punishing people after they hurt someone, not preventing harm before. Not to mention they only really care about the worst crime you can commit in America - costing a rich person more than 0.00001% of their yearly "profits". Steal $100 from a liquor store, go to jail for 10 years. Steal $100M from taxpayers, you only have to give 1% of it to politicians to have them retro-legalize it.
This scares me. I believe if this man gets out he's gonna be mad enough to be that stupid. He's already punching a man of that age in the dark with no warning before jail. He's got nothing to lose to the point he's telling cops. That's terrifying and prob why his bond is at $1M. This saddens me
@@karenneill9109 I don't think he's gonna be able to afford the bail at 1 million even if he only has to pay 10%of it. Regardless, his charge will probably get him a couple years in jail
This is scary… idc if somebody under the influence or not, I’m getting so far away from someone who continuously says “I’m gonna die and take you with me”

i had a neighbor terrorize me for years just because he could do whatever he wanted, we were in the ghetto, i was the minority and there was a huge lack of police force left inthe city. it got to a point i bought a ar-15 because he would line the block with cars and have parties for like 5 days straight all night and people would just park in my driveway and lawn because he told them to. wanna know how all this started? his house was abandoned for over 10 years and one day i saw someone in it ripping into the walls while walking past and the door was gone. i thought it was a scrapper and he walked out onto the porch i asked what he was doing, he got extremely violent tone with me immediaitely. he told me it was his home and i should keep walking. i explained to him im sorry the house has been abandoned and i thought you were a scrapper, so wouldnt you want people checking on your home then for scrappers if you do own it? he walked back in the house cursing and then had 3 younger relatives saying racist crap to me. eventually this spiraled so out of control i lost my mind. over 100 police calls in just 6 months. i was at my breaking point of saying my life would be more peaceful in a cell at this point at least my celly will be more respectable. i called a realtor the next day when i had flipped out and hit my breaking point. i called a realtor and sold my house within a month. i moved as far away as possible into a nice town with no crime. the first month i moved into the new town some asshole built his garage into aenormous building and there is no sort of zone laws or anything. so i find the perfect peaceful location and it gets immediately ruined by this workshop, and then a lady moves in across from me who leaves her st bernard outside barking all day. im waiting to finish restoring some parts of my home to get more value from it and then i plan to sell again for something even more secluded with more land or something. anything that has the perfect setup where i have almost no neighbors. people with dogs and radios are the worst. they will give you ptsd and turn you into a monster
@@SurfaceDweller dirtbikes are the worst. my mom lived on the same street as me and i saw them come down the street and purposely go on her lawn and almost hit her for absolutely no reason. i was washing my car and hopped in after them, saw a guy loading atvs and thought it was him and he said he hates them to because they make him look bad. he pointed up the street where they went and i went up there and one was up there. i whooped the crap out of him and left. i was so furious and im not even a violent person. there was alot of bullet holes in my house before i moved. alot from my neighbor. theyd shoot in the air and have no sort of thought of velocity or direction. i even had them in my shingles on my roof. its crazy how deep a bullet can go falling from the sky
@@nobodynoone2500 well you can only ask for help and for people to stop being jerks before you lose your mind. nad when i say im asking for help, i mean for their safety, not mine.
To an extent for sure. I’ve always taken note of anyone who gets mean or sketchy when they drink. And anybody can have a one off, but if it happens more than once, I tend to shake loose of that person being any part of my life.
@@TheSuperNichols I'm a no longer practicing alcoholic. Alcohol is truth serum... either you overshare, or you become the worst liar imaginable. This guy has anger issues, and no filter. I have 14 years, and it's videos like this that are as effective as a week or six of AA meetings at reminding me why I don't drink anymore. That adage isn't universal, but it's not far off.
Gregory is a weird case here, he speaks like many of the other cold killers we’ve seen in interrogations but he’s much more comedic and expressive about his actions which make his speech all the more eerie. I won’t be surprised if we end up seeing him again on this channel, because this arrest likely did more to kindle the flame than it did to smother it.
It is chilling how much this guy is like 3 neighbors I have had (still have 2 of them) over the last 20 years. The are just marinating in hate, anger and envy. You never know what they are willing to do or will do on any given day. Jangles your nerves and leaves you hyper vigilance and anxiety ridden.
To know that a person like this worked around kids for over 3 decades is almost as horrifying than the unprovoked beating of someone much weaker than him.
I think the old man just had the decency to not mention that greg hits like a girl. A man-child like greg never works out or... works for that matter. Seems like this one spent his life ingesting toxins then raging at magnified slights the moment he had to bear responsibility for doing so.
This is just sad, all the way around. Worst thing is, once he gets out, he’ll be right back next door with probably more rage.. older guy needs to move ASAP
@AnaerobicFermentation He said "middle of the night," then he changed it to "just before dark". Having grown up there, it's dark by 7:30 pm at the end of September.
That's because you have a soul, I feel the same way. We should always try and be better people, and at the end of your life you surely want to make people happy on your way out.
Narcissistic sociopaths have no empathy, don't know what love is , feel no guilt about anything, think they are superior than everyone , get worse with age , trick people or steal from others get their "supply"', They are very dangerous .
You obviously care what people think of you. These types do not care whatsoever. They want to be hated and they live in a swirling vortex of self pity and envy. I can't believe how open this guy is about it.
Gregory Charles Miller was sentenced Monday to 114 days in jail and three years probation. Having already served 114 days, Miller received the credit, according to court records. He pleaded guilty in November to assault with intent to commit great bodily harm less than murder.

@@dankhill6851 AA does not do this - he said he was attending AA but yet he was still drunk and asaulting and comitting battery on this much older man. Most of these offenders never go to a competent psychologist or psychiatrist.
When you're wiping your feet and looking around to see how you've changed the world before you go, nothing hurts more than realizing the answer is 'not that much'.
This man is a lesson in what NOT to say when speaking with a police officer. I’ve got some neighbors that I don’t like but we just don’t speak. This is crazy.
Sociopaths don’t understand that. He probably doesn’t think he needs a lawyer because he believes he’s smarter than everyone else and believes he knows how to commit the perfect crime.
Another example of what alcohol can do to a person. By his own admission, the man who assaulted his neighbor has spent much of his life as an alcoholic. The damage to his mind and body is probably severe and if he does have cancer, he’s decided to go out as a drunk rather than cleanse himself and attempt to fight it.
This man was severely intoxicated but was NEVER out of his right state of mind. He was clear and concise the entire video. If I were his 80 year old neighbor, I would make sure I was alert and armed at all times!
I had a similar incident where all the neighbors in a middle class development by table rock lake didn’t want me there. I was living with old Carl rent free. My job was to help him around the house. The neighbors didn’t like us and thought we were gay. One neighbor was a professor at the university with a young wife and kids. The other one was a retired airport employee with a terminal illness. They harassed us and even called the police on us several times. To be fair, I was an alcoholic and didn’t fit into their idea of what they wanted in the neighborhood. They had video cameras pointed at our house and harassed us. Carl’s dog mysteriously died.
The ideation of persecution and harrassment can easily snowball. Greg stated that his neighbor's actions were done specifically to annoy him. I've heard statements like this before, and 9 times out of 10 (which must be near the number of times I've come across such), the other party literally had no thought about the matter, or the primary concerned person. One man did not even think about the other, and the other thought was convinced he was being mocked or harrassed. It's kind of wild.
i'm pretty sure kracker knew he was being obnoxious with his chainsaw in the middle of the night. probably making the other guy's dog go crazy. i don't specifically believe either side completely in this story. there are many things both of them could've done to avoid confrontation.
@@ivanjakanov Per the video, the dude had a BAC of greater than 3 x the legal limit, said the wood was cut before dark, and kept telling a cop he was going to kill his neighbor.
Insight into what a mental break looks like. Someone with no prior history of violence (no arrests) and only years of mild annoyance from his neighbor, can become a killer under the right circumstances. This was someone who was a janitor around children for decades, in a vulnerable establishment, and with just the combination of a little bit of alcohol and bad news about his impending death, loses his humanity.
@@williamwalker8107 no, he was irrational from the start. He already told the cop that they hate each other but the only hate I've seen is the crazy guy. He would of fought over anything. I have a hard time imagining if i was your neighbor and i said you couldnt use your washing machine, or cut wood, or anything that makes sound during certain hours you would not let that fly.
@@kuatojones6950 I mean the way he talks it sounds like they knew each other before they became neighbours and their hate towards each other did not start overnight, or when he moved in there.. edit: and I don't want to defend the guy, but I've seen so many elderly people who thought that they can do whatever they want just because they are old and they also thought that everyone must respect them because they are old.. So the story has 2 sides and I'm pretty sure not everything is black and white there
Its crazy there are no noise ordinances. Normally after dark its one of those unsaid common agreements and courtesies between neighbors. Theres so many angry neighbors who hate on each other. I just thank god i have a quiet neighborhood w nice neighbors. Damn crazy to beat up an elderly guy. You'd think these two could just talk to each other but the dude just is too raging
Listen, I had a neighbor who would actually spy on everyone and call the police on them for nothing. She did so many outrageous things and even though people took her to court for trespass, it wouldn’t stop her. She once called the police because my son was sitting in his car with his bestie, in OUR driveway! (The besties parents were getting divorced and he was confiding his feeling to my son.) I think she told the police the boys were doing drugs, but they weren’t. The cops came, checked out the car, and then left. The woman was evil and crazy AF.
My family had the same kind of woman next door for 13 long years...she called the police on me for accidentally mowing a couple inches on her property...of course my children suffered as well because of her mean spirited nature...the type if a ball went over the fence she'd crow "it's mine now!" ...ughhhh😠
The worst person you can have a problem with is your neighbor that is to close to home, and can esecalate for the worse very quickly. I pray the older gentleman and his family stays safe!
Doesn't mean that was his first time in AA. He was probably in and out of it over the years and 8 months ago was when he started his more recent attendance.
I think alcohol plays a big part in this. I used to know a guy who was ok enough sober but when he drank a bit of booze, he'd go absolutely insane starting fights for absolutely no reason including with me for looking too young and talking back to him. Assaulted a friend of mine for trying to sell his car for "too much". Beat a bouncer into a hospital for not letting him into a party (he was big for a 17 year old). To my knowledge he stopped drinking and hasn't assaulted people since. My point is, it might be the alcohol talking and maybe he doesn't really want to kill his neighbour. I wouldn't want to take that chance if I was the neighbour though, because I don't think this man will quit drinking till he's dead.
@@lostandfound5145 That's really not true. Some good people become monsters on alcohol. There's a reason why they passed a constitutional amendment to ban it. Years of abuse can also destroy your brain, cause dementia, Parkinsons, and I suspect, whatever psychological problems this guy has.
I don't believe he has cancer, until i see two doctors with the same diagnosis for him, I'm just gonna assume hes an habitual drunk with a severe mental illness brought on by being a lifelong drunk. This man isn't just a danger to his neighbor but ti his whole community.
I feel pity for the guy he must have a miserable life cleaning toilets for three decades. He needs a big hug, and of course two decades in prison for attempted murder....
Yes it does. It also happened on Whiskey Run, one road over from these neighbors. Mr H got upset over a stray cat in his yard so he shot at it, missed, shot Mr R through the house and head board and through the foot. Mr H also got mad at his brother and shot him. Both survived and yes this was another high functioning drunk getting pissed off.
I think this is a perfect example of whats wrong with our society, a neighbor should be a friend we should have a sense of community where we live, we should look out for each other out of concern not being noisy.
Some people who live in big cities or suburbs dream about moving to a small town. But this is what comes with living in a small town. A bunch of nosy crazy people. Everyone has a clique. It’s not as great as it seems in the daydreams. Not saying this is how all small communities are, but a majority get real weird and petty
I just want to be left tf alone. I mind my business and be respectful, and I prefer the same in kind. I'm introverted though so I think that makes sense for me not to care about bothering my neighbors or being bothered by them.
This is why the bible tells us to love our neighbors. If we do, they are much less likely to want to kill us. In jewish tradition, they are instructed to never ask for the return of a borrowed item. Jealousy is mentioned half a dozen times in the ten commandments. It all seems geared to make sure our societies stay cohesive and balanced.
I'm glad this officer actually saw these red flags and took care of it before it got too bad. The amount of these videos I've watched and the officer laughing along with the suspect joking about killing someone and then going along with their day is always hard to watch.
If the cancer prognosis is indeed true, then nothing’s scarier than someone with nothing left to lose.
we can only hope its true and very aggressive.
you're gd right
why did he even get the potential to bond out? after saying all that? justice system is literally pay to win
Now imagine you are in a prison where literally every second dud got "cancer "
Nothing left to lose is another word for Freedom.
When I was a pre-teen, we had a neighbor who would pull guns on people for even looking at his house. The mailman stopped delivering to his house because of the threats, and the Girl Scouts refused to work the street because he chased a mom and two girls with a shotgun. When my aunt and uncle visited from another state, he drew on them for parking "in front of" his house, which was actually across the street and another two over. The cops didn't do a damn thing because he was somehow (I don't know how) related to either the sheriff or the police chief. Our nightmare came to an end when he drove to the neighboring state, got pulled over for speeding, then outran the cops before crashing his truck into a tree. He was cremated alive in the vehicle. The neighbors literally shot off fireworks in celebration. The years that followed were some of the best of my youth.
He got a taste of hell before he goes to hell.
🤣
that's dark but also very funny and scary all at once 🤣
I have a crazy neighbor right now. He is an old drunk guy who lives with his two adult kids and any time kids are playing outside he is standing out there with his arms crossed, just watching them and flies drones over our hours all of the time. Other times he has pulled a gun on my dad and threatened to kill him for mowing “his” grass (it was our grass). He also drains his above ground pool all of the time so that the water floods our yard. We also believe that he killed both of our dogs (long story).
oop
Talked himself into a 1 million dollar bond. That takes real effort there.
Maybe it was his way of saying "stop me before..."
I wonder how you would feel if your immediate neighbor made such noise in the middle of the night?
@@appleturnover519 He quit before dark.
@@appleturnover519 my neighbor makes all sorts of obnoxious ruckus, often past midnight just about every day of the week.... I feel no need to kill him or even start a fight with the guy. Just because you're annoyed doesn't excuse you from acting on your annoyance or anger. Try mastering the art of control over yourself.
& where did you get this information? I didn't see anything about this in the video. Maybe add some sources or only comment on things actually mentioned in the video.
I am a 50 year old USMC combat veteran and I have a 70 year old neighbor that is this guy. I have to carry a firearm on me at all times because of this crazy ol coot. I have had to install security cameras all over my property to cover myself. He came over once and attacked my 15 year old daughter because he said her chickens were keeping him up at night, I had to knock the fool out for that. When the police showed up he tried playing the victim unaware that he was recorded. They threw his old butt in jail for 90 days for assaulting my daughter but when he got out he really went loony. I haved owned my property for 30 years and this man just moved next door three years ago and instantly statred a property line dispute with me, had his property surveyed, the property lines are accurate and tried to foot me with the bill, that is where our problems started. I have lost count of all the times me or my neighbors have called law enforcement on him or his people. He has threatened to kill my entire family so many times we have lost count. I finally told law enforcement that if he shows up on my property again I will assume he is here to carry out his threat and respond accordingly. They informed him of that and he has been fairly low key since but that leaves me little comfort. He wants my property, as he has offered to buy my land multiple times and his nephew informed me that he would harass me until I sold. I told him that the Devil would sell sno cones before I would sell.
Devil Dog...we were in at the same time and our neighbor storeys are very similar.
During my civil lawsuit with my neighbor over property i found out that there are many different ways for quiet title and quit claim deeds for aderse possession.
I used google scholar and successfully represented myself so the trial was sweet.
He was 15 years or so older then me and he had 5 weiner dogs that he would sic on me as soon as he seen me.
If i pulled up in my driveway 50 yards away from the property line he would say "THERE HE IS...GIT EM!!!"
Those weiner dogs were crotch,leg.and ankle biters...the instant i would kick at 1 the other 4 would launch themselves and i never made foot contact...they duck and their so low i never even got close...lolz
Anyway he wound up charging me from 40 yards away with a framing hammer...doing so caused him to catch a concussion and a large pool of his blood 35 yards onto my property.
The police give him his hammer back which i claimed as a war trophy.
10 years after that the lawsuits ...the random swatting.and then the f4 tornado in 2021 in ky i finally moved.
It took a year before i really felt like i had moved and life is great again.
If you could stand it i would tell you to go ahead and move...i sold my old place and a large group pf Mexicans moved in next to him...
I know that really bothers him

This is what alcohol does. One of the worst drugs out there.
I had known a guy at the pool room for about 30 years. We weren't friends ,but we weren't enemies either. Once we had an interaction but I just walked away and it was over.
One day he came up and started talking about that interaction and I told him , that was 30 years ago, if I was wrong I'm sorry, if I wasn't and you just want to talk trash , i'm not interested. He looked at me really strangely and that was the end of it . A couple of weeks later I found out he had blown his head off because he found out his wife had been cheating on him for years.
I felt like if I had answered in a way he didn't care for, he would have taken me with him right then, over something completely ridiculous. Lots of strange units out there.
And maybe he’d wanted to apologize, to make amends before he went?
Yeah you likely pushed that man over the edge with such a lacking answer/cut off. I'm not saying to blame yourself but, that conversation was probably the last thing he had to live for/look forward to. I've been there.
@ZythMusic they said that they said they apologize if they're wrong. You can't tell someone that they probably pushed someone over the edge. But don't blame yourself! That's a lot worse thing to say to someone than "if you're just looking to talk shit over a discussion 30 years ago, I'm not interested". He didn't say he wasn't interested in what he had to say.
I had an old man that lived two houses down who just absolutely hated kids for some reason. I was such a good kid growing up and never did anything bad, but this man despised me. He punched me once when I was walking by him in a grocery store when I was 15. He was arrested for that. A few years later when I was 17 I had just gotten my license and was returning home from school one afternoon. I was home alone and heard a loud bang from outside and something hitting my house. It took me a few seconds to realize he was shooting at my house. I hid, and he continued shooting, walking up to my windows, yelling he was going to get me. It was absolutely terrifying. I had no cell phone because this was back in 2007, so I was in my bathroom with no phone, and a dude trying to kill me. Someone ended up calling the cops and they showed up and ended up shooting him. He survived but died a few years later. I'm very grateful he never killed me or anyone else.
Was your car loud , lol ?
@@johntitorii6676 no, to be completely honest, after I posted this comment I looked at it and thought to myself, why did I add that part in? Nothing to do with the story, I was just remembering the day as it happened lol
Glad you survived! This is scary
He singled you out? That's messed up. It sounds like he was jealous - or maybe saw an opportunity to bully someone. He didn't hate you for anything else though, right? Like, say the color of your skin, wild hair colors, piercings, etc?
I had a bully in grade school who hated me the most, was always "hunting" me, til a guy moved into town from a sad town called "Ajax" who didn't take kindly to the bully routine & he was expelled for what he did to my bully. Bully almost lost both eyes from swelling, he has scars from where they had to 'relieve pressure', etc. No more bullying since. Far worse than what I would have done.
I assume you're more Zen about it all since you had to make emotional room for it, but I must admit, your story ended exactly as it should have. Grudges are worse for the victims. Always feel like a prey animal, even when all is quiet, your radar is up & relaxing is impossible. Sorry to go all Freud on you, I just know what it's like to be "hunted" (but only fighting, not being shot at...I've been gang beaten but never took fire from a rando nut.).
Evil spirits. Sorry you had to endure that. The world is full of such people and you were caught in the sights of a killer.
This is terrifying! I hate how sinister Greg is. I don’t think he’s going… up there…
Perfect comment, although I want everyone to go…up there. He needs to repent of his evil ways. How horrible for William and his wife to live in fear of this psycho.
Sinister is the PERFECT word
I mean, we're all going to be either cremated or in coffins when we die. There is no reason to assume any part of our consciousness will linger on somehow and be transferred to another location. I get the concept but it's not the dark ages I don't understand how people still think they will live for eternity
No need to worry about him going upstairs.
Yeah I thought "up there"?
For the safety of that family, I truly hope he lives out the rest of his prognosis behind bars.
I hope he realizes the error in his thinking. He was projecting his feelings on to the old man. 'He wants me dead too, I'm sure!' I pray he starts enjoying what is left of his life. He should sell the house (wife will find another man w a house) and spend the money far away from that sweet old man and his family.
He got 3 years probation and released lol
The police officer handled the situation admirably and with commendable professionalism during the altercation between the elderly man and his neighbor.
YES Absolutely, Different Than My area sheriffs dept
100% He's from the old school Andy Griffith style of policing that doesn't exist anymore.
Agree
It is crazy to hate a neighbor that much and to openly admit you want someone to die and that you would kill them is crazy to me….
He was mad he was cutting wood, in the middle of the night, just before dark. That makes no sense 😂 This guy is dangerous. I'm worried for the poor neighbor he beat up. What an awful man.
Alcoholics are usually incredibly selfish apart from anything and oftentimes very aggressive. They have damaged their grey matter to the point of derangement too by his age
My father and the neighbor had a feud for decades...each one antagonizing the other. It used to embarrass me inside how petty and futile it was. Eventually the neighbor moved out and my father then moved on to his neighbor in the rear. Sad.
Guarantee he hates himself more, this is booze and projecting

Early 1990s when my family first moved to Vegas we had a neighbor. He was a nice guy, no complaints got along with everyone BUT, when he got that cancer diagnosis he flipped out.
Grabbed a gun and started shooting wild out his 2nd floor windows. I was thankfully in the back of our apartment bathing my 2 and 3 year olds when my next door neighbors burst into my home screaming.
He wasn't trying to really take anyone with him... was trying to do suicide by cop.
except his dog, should think about his dog being homeless without him and his house...
Neighbors like this guy are exactly why I want to settle down in the mountains at least half a mile away from the next house over
Drunk Narcissist. He's mad from the morning he wakes up till he goes too sleep.
This man doesn't go to sleep at night ... He drinks until he passes out.
I have a coworker that is like this. He has bunch of medical problems from being in service. The guy has depression alcohol problems with many more things. He hates me and said if he ever killed me or anybody else he would do it with his hands. Get better satisfaction from it. We don’t work in same department anymore but seeing this video kind of gives me the chills. Kind of feel bad for him since he fought in battle then got home and the service won’t even help him with his mental problems. Just hope he doesn’t flip one day and shoot up work or come to my house.

Alcohol and being alone can poison the mind like this, the guy is obsessed with his neighbor because he has nothing else to do
Exactly 💯
he was most likely abused mentally and physically as a child, possibly even sexually assaulted as a minor. He def has some sort of PTSD since the noises bother him and agitate him. Could be signalling his childhood trauma.
No noise ordinance?
That is absurd.

The state of confusion

Cancer can make people do strange things but it's so hard to feel any empathy for this dude, I feel he'd had kill his neighbor whether he was diagnosed with cancer or not. Going so far to threaten his children and grandchildren is beyond macabre. This dude needs counseling and therapy and to stay away from people in general.
With the history of alcoholism, it's not too surprising that it spiraled even worse for him when he realized he did have more to lose in life. Even more common if they're alone in life. I felt the same before my diagnosis but it's even more sad to see some turn to hatred and anger when going through it versus doing good before your time's up.
counseling? for someone who's not going to make it another year? i wouldn't waste the counselor's time.
prostate cancer is generally not terminal. Unless it has spread to other organs, it is treatable with surgical removal, radiation, and chemotherapy with a fairly good prognosis as cancers go.@@orektez

@@Dudemon-1 the he didn't have to say this and that about his property and family. I get that he has cancer but he really didn't have the right to do that to William who is very old. William may have been hard of hearing or maybe he can't do things far from his house due to age or circumstances, just like my grandma's sister. She also got I to a fight with a neighbor like Gregory. But she's just old and it's getting harder to hear clearly or work far so she had to work at home. The machine she uses is very loud, so it's really annoying. But what can she do? Starve? I also met people who acts like Gregory while guarding our property - they come and complain even if their house is a few feet away from ours to say that we were loud and annoying. When we brought them to the authorities to settle the dispute it turned out that they were annoyed that our car would leave the house every minute to buy stuff and return with many things( not my words but theirs) as if we were 'rich' and not some dirty farming family who grow corn and take care of sheep for a living ( their words). Even the police said it was laughable how they said the way we cut trees and grow corn annoyed the neighbor when it's natural to make noise while doing so. So I don't think an old man working on his property is being inconsiderate. Gregory just have attitude issues- he even repeated how he worked as a janitor (which is a very commendable job, idk why he seems so bummed about it.) And William have all this good stuff and good family. If it's not jealousy of a man who is alone and had issues and simply unlucky in life, then I don't know what.
He sounded jealous as hell.
Plot twist, Greg wants William to clap his cheeks and hates him cuz he's got a wife.
@@Dudemon-1he wasn't being inconsiderate though, he was cutting wood on his own property and stopped before it got dark, the fact you have came up with this after hearing he hit a 79 year old man 25 times the threatened to kill him, his children and grandchildren says more about what kind of person you must be.
Am amazed at how patient n professional the Deputy is !! These people would drive you crazy.
This guy is truly terrifying... I pray that this old man stays safe. I have a horrible feeling.
I wonder how you would feel if your immediate neighbor made such noise in the middle of the night?
He says in the same sentence. " he's running his chainsaw in the middle of the night before dark." ?😅
Depending on the time of year, "before dark" could be 4 in the afternoon.
"tell me what happened tonight"
"well it all started decades ago, when i moved in"
never fails. every time
I wonder how you would feel if your immediate neighbor made such noise in the middle of the night?
Im so Happy I have always had Amazing, Fun neighbors, I couldn't imagine having a neighbor like this
And he got probation. Three years.
What the heck? That guy needs to be locked up.
Horrible situation, thank God the guy was okay.
Nice picture :3
this man cannot tell a lie. WAY too honest, but good thing in this situation, they should not let him go back to that place, or we will all be hearing it on the news. justice system has to absolutely do their job here.
Unfortunately the "justice" system considers its job to be punishing people after they hurt someone, not preventing harm before. Not to mention they only really care about the worst crime you can commit in America - costing a rich person more than 0.00001% of their yearly "profits". Steal $100 from a liquor store, go to jail for 10 years. Steal $100M from taxpayers, you only have to give 1% of it to politicians to have them retro-legalize it.
You attack an old man like that when you're above his weight, and you really have a problem.
"My chainsaws are damm quiet"...lol Old dude knew what he was doing.
This scares me. I believe if this man gets out he's gonna be mad enough to be that stupid. He's already punching a man of that age in the dark with no warning before jail. He's got nothing to lose to the point he's telling cops. That's terrifying and prob why his bond is at $1M. This saddens me
As long as you're not the neighbor you're perfectly safe.
@@andiward7068 It's still sad for the neighbors tho
If he gets out on bail I hope the neighbour can go stay somewhere else for a while.

Since when is before dark the middle of the night???? SMH
i had a neighbor terrorize me for years just because he could do whatever he wanted, we were in the ghetto, i was the minority and there was a huge lack of police force left inthe city. it got to a point i bought a ar-15 because he would line the block with cars and have parties for like 5 days straight all night and people would just park in my driveway and lawn because he told them to.
wanna know how all this started? his house was abandoned for over 10 years and one day i saw someone in it ripping into the walls while walking past and the door was gone. i thought it was a scrapper and he walked out onto the porch i asked what he was doing, he got extremely violent tone with me immediaitely. he told me it was his home and i should keep walking. i explained to him im sorry the house has been abandoned and i thought you were a scrapper, so wouldnt you want people checking on your home then for scrappers if you do own it? he walked back in the house cursing and then had 3 younger relatives saying racist crap to me.
eventually this spiraled so out of control i lost my mind. over 100 police calls in just 6 months. i was at my breaking point of saying my life would be more peaceful in a cell at this point at least my celly will be more respectable. i called a realtor the next day when i had flipped out and hit my breaking point. i called a realtor and sold my house within a month. i moved as far away as possible into a nice town with no crime. the first month i moved into the new town some asshole built his garage into aenormous building and there is no sort of zone laws or anything. so i find the perfect peaceful location and it gets immediately ruined by this workshop, and then a lady moves in across from me who leaves her st bernard outside barking all day. im waiting to finish restoring some parts of my home to get more value from it and then i plan to sell again for something even more secluded with more land or something. anything that has the perfect setup where i have almost no neighbors. people with dogs and radios are the worst. they will give you ptsd and turn you into a monster
@@SurfaceDweller dirtbikes are the worst. my mom lived on the same street as me and i saw them come down the street and purposely go on her lawn and almost hit her for absolutely no reason. i was washing my car and hopped in after them, saw a guy loading atvs and thought it was him and he said he hates them to because they make him look bad. he pointed up the street where they went and i went up there and one was up there. i whooped the crap out of him and left. i was so furious and im not even a violent person. there was alot of bullet holes in my house before i moved. alot from my neighbor. theyd shoot in the air and have no sort of thought of velocity or direction. i even had them in my shingles on my roof. its crazy how deep a bullet can go falling from the sky

Drunk words are sober thoughts....
To an extent for sure. I’ve always taken note of anyone who gets mean or sketchy when they drink. And anybody can have a one off, but if it happens more than once, I tend to shake loose of that person being any part of my life.
@@TheSuperNichols I'm a no longer practicing alcoholic. Alcohol is truth serum... either you overshare, or you become the worst liar imaginable. This guy has anger issues, and no filter. I have 14 years, and it's videos like this that are as effective as a week or six of AA meetings at reminding me why I don't drink anymore. That adage isn't universal, but it's not far off.
Booze is the first truth serum.
Gregory is a weird case here, he speaks like many of the other cold killers we’ve seen in interrogations but he’s much more comedic and expressive about his actions which make his speech all the more eerie. I won’t be surprised if we end up seeing him again on this channel, because this arrest likely did more to kindle the flame than it did to smother it.
Great episode. Audio and video crystal clear. This dude is scary.
It is chilling how much this guy is like 3 neighbors I have had (still have 2 of them) over the last 20 years.
The are just marinating in hate, anger and envy.
You never know what they are willing to do or will do on any given day. Jangles your nerves and leaves you hyper vigilance and anxiety ridden.
To know that a person like this worked around kids for over 3 decades is almost as horrifying than the unprovoked beating of someone much weaker than him.
I think the old man just had the decency to not mention that greg hits like a girl. A man-child like greg never works out or... works for that matter. Seems like this one spent his life ingesting toxins then raging at magnified slights the moment he had to bear responsibility for doing so.
This is just sad, all the way around. Worst thing is, once he gets out, he’ll be right back next door with probably more rage.. older guy needs to move ASAP
Or get a 12 gage
I’m sure there will be a protection order prohibiting the monster from living in his house. Courts are allowed to do that.
Life in prison. I don't have time for this. No second chances.
He said he’s got prostate cancer, the guy will probably die in prison.
@AnaerobicFermentation He said "middle of the night," then he changed it to "just before dark". Having grown up there, it's dark by 7:30 pm at the end of September.
If I were dying, I'd try to be a better person during my last days.
I pray I will be a better person now.
That's because you have a soul, I feel the same way. We should always try and be better people, and at the end of your life you surely want to make people happy on your way out.
Narcissistic sociopaths have no empathy, don't know what love is , feel no guilt about anything, think they are superior than everyone , get worse with age , trick people or steal from others get their "supply"', They are very dangerous .
You obviously care what people think of you. These types do not care whatsoever. They want to be hated and they live in a swirling vortex of self pity and envy.
I can't believe how open this guy is about it.
Gregory Charles Miller was sentenced Monday to 114 days in jail and three years probation. Having already served 114 days, Miller received the credit, according to court records. He pleaded guilty in November to assault with intent to commit great bodily harm less than murder.
Dude checked off every box perfectly for premeditated murder: Stated intent to kill? Check. Ability to perform: Check. History of violence: Check. Motive? Check. Active plan in place? Check. Active timeline? Check.
Lol and people are still like "oh my gosh, lets feel sorry for him."
Deterred by the possibility of consequences? Nope.
Figures he won't be around much longer and has nothing to lose: check.

You know, except for the murder part.
Craaaazy. No excuse for his behavior!!!! He is threatening death on numerous people. He needs to be locked up.
He is.
a lot of these problems would actually be helped by a psychologist that specializes in the specific perpetrators problem, Jail breeds this problem
@@dankhill6851 AA does not do this - he said he was attending AA but yet he was still drunk and asaulting and comitting battery on this much older man. Most of these offenders never go to a competent psychologist or psychiatrist.

This man is a lesson in what NOT to say when speaking with a police officer. I’ve got some neighbors that I don’t like but we just don’t speak. This is crazy.
Rule number 1 is you dont talk to cops at all and ask for your lawyer.

Another example of what alcohol can do to a person.
By his own admission, the man who assaulted his neighbor has spent much of his life as an alcoholic.
The damage to his mind and body is probably severe and if he does have cancer, he’s decided to go out as a drunk rather than cleanse himself and attempt to fight it.
This man was severely intoxicated but was NEVER out of his right state of mind. He was clear and concise the entire video. If I were his 80 year old neighbor, I would make sure I was alert and armed at all times!
That Officer is a master class in how to do things and conduct an investigation.
I had a similar incident where all the neighbors in a middle class development by table rock lake didn’t want me there. I was living with old Carl rent free. My job was to help him around the house. The neighbors didn’t like us and thought we were gay. One neighbor was a professor at the university with a young wife and kids. The other one was a retired airport employee with a terminal illness. They harassed us and even called the police on us several times. To be fair, I was an alcoholic and didn’t fit into their idea of what they wanted in the neighborhood. They had video cameras pointed at our house and harassed us. Carl’s dog mysteriously died.
Always feel so bad for the dogs that get left alone
😢 You & me both.❤
He talked about a wife
Not just the dogs, but I've seen cats, birds, snakes, lizards etc! I wish there was a way to keep them safe!
Me too. :(
@@Findpepperbridge I don’t think greg had a wife, only william did
The ideation of persecution and harrassment can easily snowball. Greg stated that his neighbor's actions were done specifically to annoy him.
I've heard statements like this before, and 9 times out of 10 (which must be near the number of times I've come across such), the other party literally had no thought about the matter, or the primary concerned person. One man did not even think about the other, and the other thought was convinced he was being mocked or harrassed. It's kind of wild.
i'm pretty sure kracker knew he was being obnoxious with his chainsaw in the middle of the night. probably making the other guy's dog go crazy. i don't specifically believe either side completely in this story. there are many things both of them could've done to avoid confrontation.
@@ivanjakanov Per the video, the dude had a BAC of greater than 3 x the legal limit, said the wood was cut before dark, and kept telling a cop he was going to kill his neighbor.
@@ivanjakanov Middle of the night?
@@ivanjakanov the neighbor is probably fairly deaf and isn’t thinking much of it
Insight into what a mental break looks like. Someone with no prior history of violence (no arrests) and only years of mild annoyance from his neighbor, can become a killer under the right circumstances. This was someone who was a janitor around children for decades, in a vulnerable establishment, and with just the combination of a little bit of alcohol and bad news about his impending death, loses his humanity.
Like the saying goes, 'Don't Piss Off Old People, The Older We Get, The Less Life in Prison is A Deterrent'.
damn William seems like a sweet man he didn't deserve that
Really, I think he was deliberately trying to antagonize his neighbor and finally got him to react irrationally.
@@williamwalker8107and you got that from?
@@williamwalker8107 no, he was irrational from the start. He already told the cop that they hate each other but the only hate I've seen is the crazy guy. He would of fought over anything.

@@kuatojones6950 I mean the way he talks it sounds like they knew each other before they became neighbours and their hate towards each other did not start overnight, or when he moved in there..
edit: and I don't want to defend the guy, but I've seen so many elderly people who thought that they can do whatever they want just because they are old and they also thought that everyone must respect them because they are old.. So the story has 2 sides and I'm pretty sure not everything is black and white there
EWU has grown so much into different branches...proud to say I have followed since the beginning Hello everyone from Canada
Hello from the UK 🇬🇧👍
Its crazy there are no noise ordinances. Normally after dark its one of those unsaid common agreements and courtesies between neighbors. Theres so many angry neighbors who hate on each other. I just thank god i have a quiet neighborhood w nice neighbors. Damn crazy to beat up an elderly guy. You'd think these two could just talk to each other but the dude just is too raging
I have a coworker who speaks in the same cadence and with the same mannerisms as this guy. Even has the same illogical rationalizations. Holy shit.
The fact that he doesn't even mention his wife or think about the effects of his actions on her is crazy
Listen, I had a neighbor who would actually spy on everyone and call the police on them for nothing. She did so many outrageous things and even though people took her to court for trespass, it wouldn’t stop her. She once called the police because my son was sitting in his car with his bestie, in OUR driveway! (The besties parents were getting divorced and he was confiding his feeling to my son.) I think she told the police the boys were doing drugs, but they weren’t. The cops came, checked out the car, and then left. The woman was evil and crazy AF.
My family had the same kind of woman next door for 13 long years...she called the police on me for accidentally mowing a couple inches on her property...of course my children suffered as well because of her mean spirited nature...the type if a ball went over the fence she'd crow "it's mine now!" ...ughhhh😠
Yikes! My Son and friends always sit in their cars in driveway, talking and listening to music, my neighbors thankfully don't care nor assume drugs

The worst person you can have a problem with is your neighbor that is to close to home, and can esecalate for the worse very quickly. I pray the older gentleman and his family stays safe!
The saddest thing is that his first DUI was thirty years ago, and he's only bern at AA for 8 months.
Doesn't mean that was his first time in AA. He was probably in and out of it over the years and 8 months ago was when he started his more recent attendance.
I think alcohol plays a big part in this. I used to know a guy who was ok enough sober but when he drank a bit of booze, he'd go absolutely insane starting fights for absolutely no reason including with me for looking too young and talking back to him. Assaulted a friend of mine for trying to sell his car for "too much". Beat a bouncer into a hospital for not letting him into a party (he was big for a 17 year old). To my knowledge he stopped drinking and hasn't assaulted people since.
My point is, it might be the alcohol talking and maybe he doesn't really want to kill his neighbour. I wouldn't want to take that chance if I was the neighbour though, because I don't think this man will quit drinking till he's dead.
Alcohol doesn’t change people. It just brings out what’s really in there.
@@lostandfound5145 Fair enough, I avoided him while he was sober too.
@@lostandfound5145 That's really not true. Some good people become monsters on alcohol. There's a reason why they passed a constitutional amendment to ban it. Years of abuse can also destroy your brain, cause dementia, Parkinsons, and I suspect, whatever psychological problems this guy has.

I don't believe he has cancer, until i see two doctors with the same diagnosis for him, I'm just gonna assume hes an habitual drunk with a severe mental illness brought on by being a lifelong drunk. This man isn't just a danger to his neighbor but ti his whole community.

Yes it does. It also happened on Whiskey Run, one road over from these neighbors. Mr H got upset over a stray cat in his yard so he shot at it, missed, shot Mr R through the house and head board and through the foot. Mr H also got mad at his brother and shot him. Both survived and yes this was another high functioning drunk getting pissed off.

I think this is a perfect example of whats wrong with our society, a neighbor should be a friend we should have a sense of community where we live, we should look out for each other out of concern not being noisy.
Some people who live in big cities or suburbs dream about moving to a small town. But this is what comes with living in a small town. A bunch of nosy crazy people. Everyone has a clique. It’s not as great as it seems in the daydreams. Not saying this is how all small communities are, but a majority get real weird and petty

@@awesomebeast7509 Most likely the older guy was cutting wood all day long and driving the other guy crazy.
I just want to be left tf alone. I mind my business and be respectful, and I prefer the same in kind. I'm introverted though so I think that makes sense for me not to care about bothering my neighbors or being bothered by them.
This is why the bible tells us to love our neighbors. If we do, they are much less likely to want to kill us. In jewish tradition, they are instructed to never ask for the return of a borrowed item. Jealousy is mentioned half a dozen times in the ten commandments. It all seems geared to make sure our societies stay cohesive and balanced.
I'm glad this officer actually saw these red flags and took care of it before it got too bad. The amount of these videos I've watched and the officer laughing along with the suspect joking about killing someone and then going along with their day is always hard to watch.
The old guy was chopping wood on his own property in the middle of the day. Why should he have to be quiet? It’s not like he’s doing this at midnight.
