    Hello!! This story is actually about my aunt, so i thought i’d come on here and say thank you for covering her story is a non biased way. I never met her, but my family has dealt with a lot of trauma because of what happened. It pains me to think people didn’t believe her and thought she staged it all, but I am glad the general public can see that she wasn’t what the police made her out to be. Anyways, thank you for sharing the story and being as respectful as you were about it. :)

    As a former Vancouver resident, I am well aware of the documented incompetence of the Vancouver police force. A decorated police veteran had pinpointed Canadian serial k*ller Robert Pickerton a good year before he was caught. Or at least pinpointed that his pig farm was a central location between all of the Murders. And the police force itself was subjected to public inquiry and slammed for allowing 49 women (a statement Pickton made after incarceration) to be ruthlessly murdered and their bodies eaten by his pigs.

      A similar thing happened to my mum and I, when I was a teenager. We had a guy stalking us for months. Everytime we called the cops, they blew us off. The guy would walk around our house tapping on the windows. We would call the cops, but by the time the cops finally turned up, he was gone. He started to harras several other women in our neighbourhood. THEN the cops took it seriously and brought in dogs. If the cops had believed us initially, the stalkers behaviour wouldn't of exacerbated to harassing half the neighbourhood. What's scary is the police were too incompetent to catch the guy. Even with the help of hundreds of police reports, several eye witness accounts and a team of tracker dogs. Sadly many cops are keystone cops.🍩

That leads me to conclusion that it could have been either someone who was paid for it or someone that didn't have other things to do or could easily make himself available anytime. This alone would be enough for police to find out who the stalker could have been, but nobody really investigated this maybe because of possible negligence of these police departments. But I can't say anything for sure if I wasn't there.

      I'm real heaps sad to hear what your mother, your brother & you Mimi must've all had of gone through & had to put up with. It really disappoints me that these psychos even exist. Sorry to hear about how the authorities wouldn't believe you or help or even protect you too.. That is their job & in my opinion they at failed it miserably in both cases yours & this. I believe her by the way, despite what anyone thinks or said. You don't inject yourself with an overdose, tie yourself up & run to an abandoned house to then strangle yourself all to stage your murder. It wouldn't be possible. Also they would have found the needle, at least closeby. That guy was too sus standing in the night watching her house burn & if not then why wouldn't he call 911 when asked? Plus noone stabs themselves through their own hand with a pairing knife for that, no matter how elaborate they are trying to make their stalking/death threats seem. I don't believe she had mental problems at all (like schizophrenia) at least not serious ones if she did. I am glad to hear your harassments stopped Mimi. It sounds like he was just a real trash pile perv anyway & mammoth duche w/ a tiny appendage & I'm sorry that he never got caught & had to face the charges for it. He must be f**ked up to do that in the first place, even to think of doing those things let alone going through with them is sick. Even though I'm not saying that's any excuse at all. What always makes me wonder is why don't these people ever think anyone will ever see them, find out or catch them in some way. Or do they simply not care about any consequences? People are always watching just for them to f**k up so they can all make an example of the scumbags. I think & hope they all get tortured to the same extent of their victims & permanently if they won't leave them alone. I would love for someone like this to break into "the wrong sort of guys" house & get what he deserves.. I also hope the guy who did this to you & your family feels like the massive piece of shit (that he is). Also that he finds out exactly what you & everybody else think of him... I mean he has affected you (& your family) in a heaps negative (that could get worse too), for probably your whole life. Good on you & congrats getting through it all though. I would have PTSD too for sure. It'd also prolly have blood-pressured me right up & I'd have had a stress, anxiety or panic attack or just a mental breakdown lol..

      The unfortunate reality is that police do not offer personal protection or surveillance, but bodyguards do.
      The FBI provides personal protection in extreme circumstances and the police only provide serious surveillance if crimes are repeatedly committed.
      The deaths of the cats is probably why the police set up surveillance on her house. Since a crime was being committed on the premises, the police wanted to find out who was killing cats.
      But they didn't care enough about the cats to continue that expenditure on the city budgets, so I'm sure to very small protest from a cop or two who wanted to protect the cats, the force called off the surveillance.

      Sadly, before the late 1990s, the police did fuck all in that department. Someone had to be missing for 3 days to be considered missing, the standards of crime scene investigations were a lot worse, a lot of contaminated evidence, a lot of sitting around doing nothing. The trade-off was the cops back then were really friendly and nice, would get to know the neighborhoods and hang out, and since everyone knew the cops, and the cops knew everyone, it was easier to patrol and stop crimes, but wouldn't be able to do much about a missing person and mental illnesses weren't treated as real in a lot of ways.
      The '90s came and cops started to be less personable, stopped being as involved, started to be colder and more militaristic, more so after Columbine in 1994, we got SWAT formed after the Texas Belltower Sniper too, it went from friendly to business. Really, if it happened today, they would have gotten her help, would have supervised her better, would have put cameras up in her house to record, inside and out.

    • @DeathBlocks

      I wouldn't say so. Could have been someone who was walking around and noticed the fire/the commotion coming from the house and stopped and looked at the house and then ran away when the husband shouted to call 911. Could be that he misheard the man and thought he was accusing him of starting a fire, or someone who was busy doing something wrong so they were on edge, or just some kid who was out when they shouldn't be. Especially since the stalker had obviously been quite good at not being seen before that.
      I don't think she made it at all up, and that should point towards something going on when the police heard about it, just saying that there are other reasons that part could have happened.

    Hi (: I have Dissociative Identity Disorder, and I wanted to share some details about about it to provide important context. People who have DID have PTSD. ‘Splitting’ (or the distinction of parts) happens when a very intense/traumatic event occurs that the individual can’t integrate with the rest of their life experiences up until that point. This trauma happens before the age of 9 and those memories get filed away separately into what we call ‘Parts’. Yes, DID is defined by at least 2 distinct ‘parts’, but there is much more to it than that. Parts are not always fully defined as their own person, and while the memory gaps happen the complete black outs are usually triggered by some trauma or trauma adjacent event. The ‘switches’ in personality are sometimes subtle, but those who were really close to her would have noticed some change in behavior. If she was attacking herself then she would have had points were she wasn’t afraid for her life, which didn’t seem to happen once the events started. Also, switching is not something that people with DID can normally control. After years of therapy and coexistence, it’s easier to tell when those switches happen, but it’s like always being part of a group project. You don’t have control over other peoples input or lack of. Movies like ‘Split’ have created gross stereotypes about this community of humans, and I hope that this comes across as educational and not critical. I love your videos and watching your stories, and with DID being researched so heavily in the last decade, there is still lots of outdated or incomplete information out there. 🙏🏼♥️

    • @IchBinKajira
      @IchBinKajira 6 місяців тому +1

      I know someone that legitimately has DId and I used to live with her and have known her for over 20 years. At first I didn't know about this, but a mutual friend who was also living with us did. He told me that he suspected that she had DId and I started paying really close attention. I could then tell when she became another "personality ", the changes were very clear to me then. We came to realize that this had to be directly caused by the abuse from her family growing up and from the abuse by her two ex-husbands. She had been abused for at least 40 years. When she was one of her "alters" her voice, mannerisms, personality and even her gait would change, if a person was paying attention you could clearly tell . It wasn't forced changes it was smooth and was very natural. I never thought she was faking and still don't to this day, the switches don't happen much anymore as long as everything is kept on even keel. So imo it's unlikely the lady in the story had this illness or someone would know. I also think the police should be held accountable for her death since they didn't believe her and she was clearly murdered by her stalker, even though it sounds like they tried to cover it up. So horrible she died knowing no one believed her. Love Mr Ballen, great channels. I'm an addict now.

    As someone with DID : the fact that no one realized she had DID is very logical, this is an extremely “hidden” condition. Also full black out are not common in this disorder, even if they still happen for some of us. The DID theory seams realistic to me as I have friends that also almost got killed by another “personality” of theirs (they are actually called alters as they are not really personalities but more identities)

    Sadly stuff like this happened often in the 70’s & 80’s. Stalking and sexual harassment were not really taken seriously, even in areas that had laws regarding them. Most cops assumed the woman was just looking for attention or was hysterical. Even when they had proof it was happening they often blamed the woman for leading the guy, being a tease, or dressing provocatively. It was not uncommon for the first question to female victims was “what did you do to cause this?”, even in cases of physical abuse and rape. I had a friend who was raped and was asked this question almost word for word. They wrote the whole thing off as she agreed to have sex then changed her mind in the middle. Sexual harassment was often written off as a hysterical woman getting angry because a man complemented her. Keep in mind during this time women were often taught that if a man asked her to dance or out on a date, she was being rude if she said no, especially in some areas and cultures.
    In this case the cops should have put a trace on her phone. It would have quickly proven if she was really getting harassing phone calls. But if her stalker was connected to the police, they would have most likely protected the stalker. Which could explain this entire thing, especially them ruling it a suicide and blaming her for faking her stalker.

No history of this kind of behavior or of any kind of mental illness. I would have looked into Agnes and Tom, as well as, anyone that surrounded her. The person/persons would only need a small amount of common sense to know not to come to her home and commit crimes while police are parked out front (marked cars, Im sure).

      Gaslighting in all forms is criminally reprehensible and causes significantly crippling unacknowledged harm to its victims on endless levels and oftentimes this suffering is swept under the rug thus blaming the victim essentially, making things 10 times worse. Never is Justice found

    Voice on the message is definitely a woman - I wonder if her “friend” Agnes was ever investigated- she would have had knowledge about Cindy staying at the couples house for arson attempt, known her unlisted number for bridge dates, known every time she moved to keep in touch, as well as being conveniently the one who arrived to find Cindy missing (who knows if that even happened, Agnes may have already kidnapped her, drugged her and then told police she went to Cindys house)… it’s usually someone close to the victim… jealousy or even love/obsession may have been a motive (think Selena). Would be interesting to know what Agnes did for a living and if she had access to morphine, needles, and cats. It’s a find line of power to be the shoulder to cry on for Cindy and also the one inflicting the torment…

      Interesting... A twist on the 'Munchausen by Proxy" syndrome. Seeking attention by injecting oneself into drama as the selfless, loyal friend and confidant to the victim while all the while being the perpetrator. You may have something there. Agnes DID seem to be in the picture or at least the aftermath of every occurrence.

    a lot of it pointed to the stalker being either a member of local law enforcement or in contact with local law enforcement, which would explain the absolutely insane levels of laziness on the cops part, not even professional enough to hold their tongues when talking to the potential victim after just a second of third event
    and with what we know now about an astoundingly large percent of the police force and their association with organized crime and terrorist groups... there's just too many things that point to them being the culprits, or atleast the ones who ended it, they really fought hard to "prove" her to be a pathological liar, without actually proving it with a psychiatrists diagnosis

      She is a very beautiful wooman and the guy looks like a nobody. There is the possibility that he couldn't see himself being without her and staged this insane stalking and finally murder. Something a psychologist might think of to drive her insane because he would be in a better position to know how these kind of mind games might affect the mind.

    Those police officers, or the department, or whatever, were absolutely inexcusable. They seemed to think that, because they didn’t find anything, nothing was happening. The arrogance is unbelievable - their assumptions about the victim were solely based on their faith that their detective powers were infallible. This, even at the stage where they simply didn’t bother doing their jobs!

      To be fair, the police receive non-sense calls from crazy people all the time. It can be hard to separate the noise from the signal sometimes because of it. A person in massive distress from a skilled stalker sounds awfully a lot like a schizophrenic calling the cops to complain about how the mailman is out to get them. Sadly this mean a skilled stalker can basically go undetected if they are good enough.
      Not to excuse the officers but just to give some perspective.
