@@5GreenAcres unfortunately there's a lot of people who would look the other way and think that they should mind their own business. That helping a person who's been injured will possibly somehow get them pulled into whatever caused it in the first place. That sounds so idiotic to me but I have read so many comments saying that kind of thing and I've seen how people react first hand and it's infuriating.
@@takashiimotaki9593Sure, she is an American, making her an American hero, BUT I’d say she a GLOBAL HERO! Because her fantastic actions are NOT limited to America or any country, but are UNIVERSAL! ❤
Or she used the child to make his life hell. Like ao many mothers do. Remember, the courts are sexist, and mothers typically win even though statistics prove father are way better parents.
The fact that Tim and Colleen knew each other since she was 12, and they started a relationship when she was 18, gave me the ick beyond the Icks that were there from hearing this story. Glad Nicki found her love ❤️
Nikki seems to be a good woman, a good mother and a great human being. This world is so twisted that women don't support another woman like Nikki. Women blame the victims instead of defending them. That's a shame mostly by being aware of the seriousness of Nikki's situation.
She was spot on about being a female. I could tell by watching the few seconds of surveillance; I immediately thought “That’s a female’s run”. Tim is such a sociopath to be able to visit with his son pretending everything is okay while he knew Cal’s mom was outside being (attempted to be) murdered. Horrific psychopath.
Destroying his family?? The baby he didn't want?? That family? He was jealous that she found a real man. She had no issue accepting his weird relationship with this little 18 year old but he couldn't stand to see her happy.
My guess is he was abusing and grooming Colleen for years. He’s disgusting and a complete narcissist to think he could remove some logo on his vehicle and get away with this. 😠. Even trying to gaslight the judge… 18 years is not enough for this guy. He was right about one thing. The system is flawed.
Oh, and I left out that Nicki baby-trapped him and FORCED him to become a Father to begin with. Then took his child away from him. After using his girlfriend as a baby-sitter when it was convenient for her.
I definitely think he groomed Colleen for years. That doesn’t make her part any less. I agree that his punishment should have been longer because of the grooming.
"Grooming" is a word that doesn't mean anything. Women are not children. Let me repeat again: women are not children. You cannot "groom" an adult, unless they have learning disabilities or something. The fact that she committed the shooting and he got longer than her (or convicted at all) is utterly absurd. And evidences, once again, the insane bias against men and in favour of women in the criminal justice system.@@saramurphy2733
I am in disbelief of emergency response. They made her WALK to the ambulance after being SHOT?? Wouldn't that destabilize the wound and send more blood pumping where it shouldn't?? Can any EMTs weigh in on this? Also, "Why didn't you leave?" is an ignorant, insensitive question and one that blames the victim. The cycle of abuse and the manipulative hold of psychopaths is well-documented. Interviewers that reach out to survivors of abuse need to do their research and ditch this question NOW. It normalizes the abuser's response and not the survivor's heroism.
I think that question gets asked because the interviewer knows that some viewers will be wondering, rather than ignorance. Leaving an abusive relationship is universally difficult, but everyone has their own reasons, known or not, to stay, and recognition and speaking out about these reasons can help other victims break the cycle.
I'm not an EMT but have had CPR and first aid response training in the past. In regards to her walking, my guess is the EMTs thought it was safer for her to walk if she can, rather than risk any damage or possible further damage to her spine because of the wound location, or it would take precious time to maneuver her and she was bleeding out, quicker = better in that situation. Also, EMTS are humans like the rest of us, doing the best we can in all situations, with imperfect equipment, within imperfect systems, in an imperfect world.
@@fiddle18 we don't believe his qualifications matter here. The reality is that they failed, it was wrong asking a victim to walk . Anybody knows that so it does not matter the qualifications. even a person with no study in the area knows it's dangerous to move anybody who got involved in an accident or is hurt as they do not know if there's more damages inside than they can see.
Right?! They make you be pushed in a wheelchair when leaving the hospital after having a baby, but make a gunshot victim with a gushing neck walk to the ambulance. So bizarre!
Exactly!! Just because they weren’t successful means nothing!! God has bigger plans for Nicki! Intent should be punished to the full extent of the law!!
He was having relations with that "tenant and student" long before she was 18, and the trigger for him, as a sociopath, was the new boyfriend. Only control. That's everything for him. So damn scary. What's crazy is that he thought he could get away with it. Arrogant and stupid. So glad she survived and has a good man in her life for the sake of the child.
@@jennypham3998 I agree they look completely different! And even if they did look alike why would it matter?? it wasn’t the way he looked that was abusive it was personality. Feel like he’s trying anyway he can to victim blame and say it was somehow her fault or not true?? Every one of his comments have been about either victim blaming,defending/making excuses for the abuser or straight up hatred of women. Seems like a misogynist
Charismatic, controlling and manipulative. He wants to control her but wants nothing to do with his kid and he gets jealous. Classic narcissistic behavior.
@@antjobert Yes indeed, and that's why even the disciples said to Jesus, " it is good not to marry". (Not saying marriage was bad, just being very careful what you enter into)
Right!! After I was injured as a passenger in a car accident, with a broken hip (completely severed at the neck of femur), I was made to get myself out the car, walk to the stretcher and get myself on it. You can imagine the pain and the extra damage that caused. Spent 10 weeks completely bedridden in hospital and two full years recovery (I say recovery though I’ve had issues the rest of my life). Some people should not be paramedics.
OH MY GOD !!! I WANTED TO MENTION THAT AS WELL BUT FORGOT TO AT THE END. COULD YOU IMAGINE IF THE BULLET WAS NEAR HER SPINAL CORD AND SHE ENDED UP Paralyzed ?!? HER ANGELS WERE VIGILANT IN KEEPING THE BULLETS FROM DECENDING INTO HER FOREAMEN.
That was my thought. At first I thought the ambulance didn't have room to get near her. But then saw there was plenty of room for the stretcher. Why would you make one walk to the ambulance no matter the type of injury. Should be a teaching moment to ambulance training.
You do realize that paramedics can't go into an area of active shooter, has to be cleared by police. This is a case of poor reporting. They have a protocol to save lives, including their own. I can't believe people would actually think they would show up carefree and stupid or lazy. Seems vague, don't you think?
@@Hehasmadeglad1975 the paramedic walked to her in the 'active shooter' area...which it wasn't, the shooter fled. He could have taken the gurney with him, don't you think?
@@E-Kat that's harrowing! had a doctor friend who went to er and knew he needed an appendectomy and no one else was catching on. practically had to operate on himself!
This man is a sociopathic control freak. He used and controlled women - ultimately destroying the life of the woman he persuaded to carry out the shooting for him. He didn't want his son, he wanted control. He is a truly evil man who got off lightly in his sentence.
@@delvarisreginald5781 Exactly. She was so "abused" that she got with someone that looks like it could be his brother lol. Moreover, when does a patrol cop talk so nice and gently?
@@SidewaysInTraffic So... not sure what you're saying here. You saying the ex, who is nowhere near as good looking as her now boyfriend, was actually a good dude? The same guy who attempted to have her murdered? You don't sound unhinged at all.
@@delvarisreginald5781 Physically, only ever so slightly. I don't like the murdering ex husbands look but I'd certainly go for someone who looks like the boyfriend.
I didn’t but I kno this woman leaving out her toxic part in the stories. Only talking about what her did but never what she did. N her man did not want her to have a kid n she said no as if it’s only her choice. Then bringing some other dude around her young son. New man should not affect the bio dad relationship. She seem like a baby mama that a nightmare. Not saying she deserved to be shot. But it’s clear y that man didn’t want her.
Emilie Clancy deserves a medal and a lot of recognition. It may not seem like much, to stay with a gunshot victim and stabilize them while calling 911, but it’s massive. I’ve been on either side of this kind of thing and you can’t imagine how much it changes your life. When someone might be dying in your arms you are never “normal again.” Similarly, when you’re dying it’s horrifying and having someone there is so important (which I guess Nicole didn’t experience). Point is, I think there’s a zero percent chance Emilie doesn’t have PTSD. As someone with PTSD, I have so much respect for someone who willingly alters their life forever for a stranger. Most people will never realize how much something like that can ruin your life, but it can and does. She deserves so much for her sacrifice.
The way she was looking into her eyes with such warmth made me tear up, she was so brave to stop and help her in this day and age of 'me,me, me' not alot of people would have. She's an angel ❤
Everything you said ❤❤❤ I could cry all over again thinking how remarkable Emilie’s actions were! I appreciate Emilie Clancy so much. I hope she has a blessed life forever.
@@Lizzie-h3j they’re connected on a level that few people are. You don’t need years of connection, that moment is so powerful that is permanent. I think fondly and often of the girl who saved my life. She’s like 100 pounds soaking wet but she saved my 6’2” self. She’s an Angel in my mind.
I'm so happy she got to meet the women who stopped to help her. That was amazing. I'm so happy for Nicole finding a real gentleman who stuck by her through all of it. ❤
Why would she hav that abusive psychos kid after he told her to get rid of it? Bc she wanted to be in his life & control him. She tries to act so naive, but she knew what she was doing. The shooting was WRONG. But the boys mom wanted to cause probs.
I wouldn't be so quick to judge, what if he was getting abused or even still is. That's why I'm against dating when you break-up and have young children. You don't know who you're letting into your home (men or women).
I do not understand why these sentences were so paltry for the crimes committed. Nicole should not have to worry about (especially) Tim's eventual release from prison.
Well let me tell you, he got almost a max sentence. If she would have died, both of them would have gotten life sentences, but because she survived 15 years is usually the max for that charge.
Claire: “He can draw people in and make them feel this connection with him.” Interviewer: “What did women see in him?” Claire: “I don’t know cause I didn’t see it.”
Like seriously! lmao Watching these true crime videos I'm literally Claire, having no idea what people see in most of criminals they describe as having this power to attract so many people
I can remember when I was in my 40s I would curled up on the sofa with a blanket watching 48 hours with Erin Moriarty. Her voice is so soothing so informative. She pauses at just the right times and you are 100 percent sure you are going to hear something interesting. So now I still get that same excitement and it automatically transports me to excitement. Thanks erin....
Tim is a toxic narcissist through and through, no regard for his own son, no compassion for him and how it will impact him for the rest of his life to know he was the one behind his mother being nearly killed. When he couldn’t control Nicki he began making allegations against her and her new boyfriend of sexual abuse towards the child, and such accusations are extremely horrific to imagine but he purposely made it up, just to make Nicki ‘s life a nightmare. When he lost custody and was allowed only a single visitation a week he had then resorted to using a vulnerable teenager to do the shooting of the mother of his son. A child he didn’t want born., and asked her to abort. This man is a complete disgrace to humanity. Toxic narcissist who doesn’t think about anything else but getting his way, controlling and abusing people in order to satisfy his twisted agenda. Psychopath as well most likely..!
My ex and his Dad tried killing me by loosening all the lugnuts on my tires. Then he set me up and took me to court to take my kid. He hasn't really spoken tho that kid as soon as he left n turned 16. That kid is not only my son but my best friend. Sometimes they win and it sucks...but ultimately they don't win because they're evil.
Cops are known to be abusive, come on. We literally see one on the news weekly beating, choking, or murdering someone. Also my younger cousin was a super kind kid, he became a cop in SF and started beating his wife until she left him. This guy interviewed is trying too hard to speak softly and calmly.
@@zc6346 Well the thing is that when it’s not your body you can’t dictate if the woman should or shouldn’t have an abortion. If the man didn’t want the responsibility he shouldn’t have had unprotected sex. But he has no right to demand a woman to have an abortion after he gets her pregnant, just because he doesn’t want the responsibility. She also has a choice in the matter..! A man who doesn’t want children has a choice to get a vasectomy or to use protection.
Emilie (the bystander) is truly a hero. The way she encouraged Nicki to hold on was very touching. Also interesting that Colleen immediately took full responsibility and Tim still would not. What a horrible story.
So much love to the stranger who made all the difference in this story! People like her give me hope for humanity, especially when people like him are around.
I used to workout at his gym! He was one of the owners & I had met him a few times. I never would had expected this...I'm so happy that she survived & had an angel there to help save her life! 😪
If I didn't know better, I'd say she was a zombie. The attorney probably wrote the apology statement. She should have gotten life. It's only because she was so epically inept at shooting a gun that the victim survived.
He's the epiphany of evil. A liar, whoremonger, physical and emotional abuser, arrogant and unrepentant. I hope Nicole and her family can go on to live a long and healthy life.
Yes she did what any decent kind person would & should do....Common decency & she put herself in Nicky's shoes...Its exactly what humans should do for each other...Treat others how you wish to be treated💚💟💛
I can’t believe those Paramedics made her walk to the ambulance. I was a Paramedic and would have pulled the stretcher to the patient. Shame on those medics. I am now an ER nurse and can say standing upright makes her body, with walking makes the pumping of the heart and more blood loss. They should be reprimanded!
First 30 seconds we all knew who was behind this. Actually, I knew even before that. And the rest of the story has happened over and over. Ladies, believe in yourselves, don’t fall for flash, don’t stay with abusers.
They can’t stay away from bad men she even had a baby with him I mean come on… meaning she wants him to be in her life forever and he will, he is in prison not dead
Emily was an angel, she had the most calm and assuring tone. Helping her to be as calm as possible slows the flow of blood so it probably helped physically not just emotionally. Love you Emily 💕💕
They said the killer woman knew the dude since she was 12 years old. Because she was a student of his martial arts. That leads me to believe that more than likely he was also a chomo having underage illegal relations with her before they legally got together down the road. Maybe not when she was 12, but a year or a few after that. Straight disgusting.
Love how Erin hosts this show because of how she interviews… you’ll hardly hear her ask obvious leading questions and I like that very much. I also like her calm and poised demeanor and her point of view. Kudos Erin! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hats off to the lady who stopped to help her , same can’t be said for the paramedic who not knowing the extent of her injuries made her walk to the stretcher 😮….. I immediately thought it was a woman who did this ! So glad she is still here to tell the tale !
I had heard about paramedics making a patient walk to the stretcher while having trouble breathing. She passed away while being delivered to the hospital. To watch this it was unbelievable. I agree there should be more training on how to handle a patient who is on the verge of death. It was so good to know that this young lady survived.
Lots of people in these comments making excuses for her and trying to minimize her guilt. She was influenced, sure, but she knew what she was doing, knew it was wrong, and didn't care. She's sorry NOW because it didn't get her what she wanted.
This is the definition of "grooming." He carefully groomed her in that dominant role from the time she was 12. She was living with him almost immediately after turning 18, and still calling him "master" around their home. He absolutely controlled that woman.
She did it cause she was jealous. He still wanted her, he was mad he couldn’t have her and she was w/someone else, and she thought if she’s dead; she’s gone.
@@colleenmahony8803it’s really really gross actually!! How anyone could of been comfortable with that set up is alarming! Why would any parent continue to send their children to him????
He is a monster. He couldn't stand that she moved on and was happy. I'm so glad she ia alive and has a wonderful future ahead, despite what these two tried to do. I do think he should've gotten a harsher sentence though.
Tim is your typical run of the mill narcissist with grandiose sense of self, in reality he is sad controlling abusive person who will always destroy lives as his ego cannot handle being slighted by anything ever, prison is where he belongs hope he suffers there for years
This story reminds me of how my nieces ex treats her, torments her life, lies to CPS, and drags her to court over their son. I wish there was a way to prove mental manipulation and verbal abuse enough to make the abusive parent unable to have partial custody and stop the ability to cause such destruction. Not only does the abusive parent disrupt the lives of everyone in their path, it can mentally damage the child that is used as the pawn.
My daughters dad did the same to me (his family also partipated) when my daughter was a baby, toddler, and til she was about 10 when he finally stopped. He hasnt even seen her in person since she was 3 except for when i changed her last name to mine and we had to go to court for it. I had a stalking civil protection order before she was born but he always violated it and never did more than a few hrs in county jail. Shes 19 now and a freshman in college and hes not been a part of her life. Luckily hes never had any visitation with her and he personally never tried bc hes been an addict for 23 yrs and never tried to get clean either. His parents tried for visitation, but Ohio doesnt have grandparent rights, and bc he lived with them and was actively using anyway, the magistrate didnt grant it. Thank goodness bc its a family of crazies who hate me and theres no telling how different her life would've been .... and not for the better.
Suggestions: hidden cameras, recording devices, gather evidence for as long as needed, get professional help from abuse counselor with coping, be proactive & never be a victim. Easier said than done but it’s something to try.
As terrible as this story is, I can only think about the wonderful continuation. Nicole & Donovan are a beautiful couple! I’m so happy she survived! I’m happy they were able to have a baby. I’m happy that they get to live happily with their kids & I’m happy that someone was there to aid in her survival.
Colleen is a cold hearted person. I don’t see what any woman would find attractive about that guy. He seems to be arrogant and very self absorbed. Nicki surviving is truly miraculous.
I hope that young teenage girl gets the help she needs. I’m not excusing what she did to Nicole at all, but what a manipulator Tim is. He’s the one that should be in prison for a very long time.
@@digby_dooright I think it's often difficult for those outside of such a situation to grasp just how strongly coercion, manipulation, grooming and brainwashing can affect a person. Those strategic actions---especially, over time---really do change the brain. I get that it's hard to imagine, and even harder to understand---butvthat doesn't make it an less true, imo!
I'm not excusing Colleen's actions, but I believe she really was manipulated by Tim. Since she was already enamored with him, I'm sure it didn't take much effort on his part.
I wholeheartedly concur, just an absolute putrid cretin of a human being! No amount of so called "manipulation" on the part of some neanderthalic toxic boyfriend/girlfriend has the power to 'make' someone actually carry out something as heinous and depraved as attempting to extinguish another human being's life. Actual coercion, and/or threats.. yes, manipulation, no. Like Nicki's friend expressed so perfectly... 36:46 The decision on her part to go through with actually shooting this woman was all her own i.e. regardless of what HE wanted, she had a choice and calculatedly chose to go through with it for her own selfish reasons, which Nicki touched on i.e. get the child, please her man and be a happy little family. Absolutely disgusting and unfathomable.
I agree my mother told my father she was leaving n he hit her in the head with an axe n killed her,n those restraining orders don't always keep people safe,some stay cause of the mental n physical abuse they put you thru,ppl won't understand it unless they live it n my father put my mother in basement for 3 days n told everyone she left him n needed to make missing persons report, when he knew the whole time she was in basement n there was 5 little children it was disgusting
My step son from many years ago, fell in love with a girl and at 18 years of age, they proceeded to get married. After they were married, we discovered that she was pregnant. They had a beautiful baby boy and it seemed as if they were very happy. My stepson ended up coming to work with me and after a very short time, he started complaining about his wife. And how much he hated how they were together. Constantly fighting and she was complaining about how much alcohol he was drinking every day. Many times he spoiled about wanting to leave her. This was something that he would talk about almost daily. Then something happened and she ended up locking him out of the house and she filed for divorce. When this happened, I personally saw my stepson become obsessed with the fact that she left him and that he was insulted by this. I cannot begin to tell you how many times the police would come to my home looking for him because of something he did. He would slash her tires, break into her apartment and threaten her and then he actually took his son and attempted to run away with him. It was a sickening obsession about control. He ended up getting arrested and then deported. This case is very similar and all I can say is thank God she lived and was able to get both people behind bars!!! Hopefully she will find people and happiness with her new husband
Wow, I'm sorry your family experienced that. Ppl have to understand, these obsessive ppl ruin so many lives. They ruin their own lives, their family members lives, and their victims lives. It's sad you and his ex had to see him lose it like that.
That was the biggest lie of the entire show. If Tim wanted her back then, he would have had her instantly. That’s just the truth. She was just taking shots at him (no pun intended) after knowing what Tim did
Why am I crying!? I just love a happy ending. Good for her. She found her happiness and evil tried to destroy every bit of it. Too bad for him, he failed and can now be miserable every single day while his family moves on with their lives. How can people be so cruel? Especially to someone you once loved and have a child with. How devastating for that sweet boy to have potentially lost his mother. The selfishness is unfathomable. I truly hope he changes his ways and learns to be empathetic towards others. Evil never wins.
He wasn't mad she moved on. He was mad she moved on to someone better. He has a great career, loves her kid, and he's also good looking. He wouldn't have cared if he thought he was the better man
Trying to understand why the paramedics had her walk to the ambulance-- that kind of exertion would accelerate blood loss, not to mention the movement potentially exacerbating the existing injuries..
God & his Angels were by this woman’s side the entire time, the fact that she was able to walk after being shot up close and personal says so much 🙏🏽❤️❤️💯 I hope she know’s how strong she truly is !
Tim showed his culpability when, in Family Wise, he immediately raised his arms when asked by police to be searched for weapons. Someone who doesn't know what is going on would immediately have asked why in the world are you asking me this? He didn't ask until after he was patted down. He knew what was going on.
Asking an abuse victim why they stayed is revictimizing. There can be many, many reasons for staying, one being the abuse is also psychological making the victim feel they can't leave. Look up "learned helplessness". Study narcissism and you'll understand this case entirely. Tim is clearly either a narcissist or a sociopath.
I actually disagree with you. I think it depends why you're asking. If you're asking "why did you stay?" In a manner that suggests the victim was stupid for staying etc, then it's wrong. But if you're asking for the purpose of genuinely trying to understand what was going through her head at the time and hearing it firsthand from her, then I don't believe it's fair to assign a distasteful motive in that instance. It's easy to make assumptions about people who ask that kind of question, because it's often asked in a patronising and belittling manner. But you're also in danger of misreading a person's tone and true intent when it's asked for the purpose of genuine curiosity or intrigue, and I believe that was the motive in this instance.
My ex wife in many ways has the same characteristics of Tim. She’s a teacher..controlling. Narcissistic. Accusatory to the enth degree..CPS, police, lies to our child, therapists, courts. I can relate to Nicky’s years of harassment. Thank God that piece of crap cannot try to groom and lie to Callahan like he did with Colleen. God bless the happy family and the ppl that helped through that nightmare!🙏🏻 PS: Ladies beware of a purple light 🤨
How is it possible that this narcissist, human waste, is only given 18 years? What are they waiting for, a next victim to lock him up for life? All my respect to Emily and my best wishes to Nikki and her son. As for the paramedic who made her walk to the ambulance... he's in the wrong job.
If you are ever in a domestic violence situation please leave. Especially, if the person has strangled you. Why? Because you deserve better and because it will save your life. Strangulation increases the chances of that partner killing you. It's one of the biggest indicators that determines if a violent partner will lead to your death. Edit: As @morselthegod stated when, you leave don't give them any warning. When an abuse victim leaves it's one of the most dangerous times of the relationship. Please be safe, please leave without warning, and please survive. You are worthy of love, compassion, and care.
They didn´t say because they can´t prove it, but Tim was probably taking steroids for his muscle and fitness stuff which makes the person have violent tantrums... so scary...
Agreed about the strangulation. If they strangle you ONCE, time's up. If you stay, they will 100% end your life. After the first strangulation, you need to plot your escape and pack up and leave. Never tell the abuser you're leaving until you've already left and he can't find you.
Omg how am I just now hearing about this? April 20th is my birthday and on this day I had an indoor picnic with my friend in a NE Airbnb only 2 miles away… I’m so glad Nicki’s okay. The lady that stopped to help is a true testament of Minnesotans! We rally for each other! God bless Nicki and all who helped!
They made a shooting victim, shot in the neck walk to the stretcher is what blew my mind. What nonsense was that? Thank God Nicole survived. It was her day.
There's a reason behind this. If there's no numbness or any signs of spinal damage, standing up keeps the blood towards the feet and away from the wound resulting in less blood loss. They're also much more likely to stay conscious, which is ideal for police questioning, medical history taking and avoiding a coma.
@@HomoLegalMedic then they put her horizontally in the ambulance. Come on dude first rule is stabilise the neck and head. It was sheer stupidity on their part.
It may have been nonsense but had they done it any other way the outcome may not be what it is today and we have a great outcome. God bless the EMS team!
It's sad how a child was weaponized to control & torment Nicki. He didn't want the child. Sadly, abusers will get a woman pregnant to control them & make them dependent. Luckily, Nicki was self-sufficient & could take care of herself & her son when they left him. This made things worst, especially once she started dating. This is typical abuser behavior.
Actually read your first two sentences. He didn't want the child. She had the child. She forced him into slavery for 18 years. But HE was the one weaponising the child? Christ.

Nikki seems to be a good woman, a good mother and a great human being. This world is so twisted that women don't support another woman like Nikki. Women blame the victims instead of defending them. That's a shame mostly by being aware of the seriousness of Nikki's situation.
Emily, THANK YOU for stopping & caring. Not many people would do this. She is alive because you acted. ❤
I agree! Huge thanks to Emily 👏🏾
100% she was so calm and just radiated warmth and love while no doubt being terrified. She's an angel ❤
A good Samaritan for sure. Some still exist in this hateful and murderous world.
I agree if it wasn't for that lady Nicole would've died
Pretty sure most people would care if they witness a woman being shot in front of them.
She was spot on about being a female. I could tell by watching the few seconds of surveillance; I immediately thought “That’s a female’s run”. Tim is such a sociopath to be able to visit with his son pretending everything is okay while he knew Cal’s mom was outside being (attempted to be) murdered. Horrific psychopath.
I thought the same as soon as saw it.
I could instantly tell too that was a females run
Absolutely craziness.
@@emmamilburn1905 *The student looks like Mollie Tibbetts!*
Me too!
Destroying his family?? The baby he didn't want?? That family? He was jealous that she found a real man. She had no issue accepting his weird relationship with this little 18 year old but he couldn't stand to see her happy.
God bless the woman who helped Nicki. She absolutely saved her life. She’s a hero. 👏👍
My guess is he was abusing and grooming Colleen for years. He’s disgusting and a complete narcissist to think he could remove some logo on his vehicle and get away with this. 😠. Even trying to gaslight the judge… 18 years is not enough for this guy. He was right about one thing. The system is flawed.
Oh, and I left out that Nicki baby-trapped him and FORCED him to become a Father to begin with. Then took his child away from him. After using his girlfriend as a baby-sitter when it was convenient for her.
you used just about every big democrat word lol brainwashed much ?
Exactly well said
I definitely think he groomed Colleen for years. That doesn’t make her part any less. I agree that his punishment should have been longer because of the grooming.
"Grooming" is a word that doesn't mean anything. Women are not children. Let me repeat again: women are not children. You cannot "groom" an adult, unless they have learning disabilities or something.
The fact that she committed the shooting and he got longer than her (or convicted at all) is utterly absurd. And evidences, once again, the insane bias against men and in favour of women in the criminal justice system.@@saramurphy2733
I am in disbelief of emergency response. They made her WALK to the ambulance after being SHOT?? Wouldn't that destabilize the wound and send more blood pumping where it shouldn't?? Can any EMTs weigh in on this?
Also, "Why didn't you leave?" is an ignorant, insensitive question and one that blames the victim. The cycle of abuse and the manipulative hold of psychopaths is well-documented. Interviewers that reach out to survivors of abuse need to do their research and ditch this question NOW. It normalizes the abuser's response and not the survivor's heroism.
I think that question gets asked because the interviewer knows that some viewers will be wondering, rather than ignorance. Leaving an abusive relationship is universally difficult, but everyone has their own reasons, known or not, to stay, and recognition and speaking out about these reasons can help other victims break the cycle.
I'm not an EMT but have had CPR and first aid response training in the past. In regards to her walking, my guess is the EMTs thought it was safer for her to walk if she can, rather than risk any damage or possible further damage to her spine because of the wound location, or it would take precious time to maneuver her and she was bleeding out, quicker = better in that situation. Also, EMTS are humans like the rest of us, doing the best we can in all situations, with imperfect equipment, within imperfect systems, in an imperfect world.
I hope that paramedic who made her walk to the ambulance gets some additional training. Unbelievable.
Exactly. I was sat there open mouthed that he couldnt bother to bring the stretcher to the car. She had gun shot wounds to her neck FGS!
and longs too @@sarahholland2600
Your qualifications?
@@fiddle18 we don't believe his qualifications matter here. The reality is that they failed, it was wrong asking a victim to walk . Anybody knows that so it does not matter the qualifications. even a person with no study in the area knows it's dangerous to move anybody who got involved in an accident or is hurt as they do not know if there's more damages inside than they can see.
@@fiddle18 a brain.
She was in critical condition and the Minneapolis EMT's made her walk to the stretcher behind the ambulance. That's definitely not acceptable.😠
I was so surprised to see that! Am glad the reporter raised it as I was thinking "is that normal".
I’m betting they didn’t realize how bad it was?
I always figured, if they could walk .. they did.
But they knew she had a gunshot wound to the chest
Yeah HCMC EMS sucks
Right?! They make you be pushed in a wheelchair when leaving the hospital after having a baby, but make a gunshot victim with a gushing neck walk to the ambulance. So bizarre!
The woman who helped her... man, shes a hero and an angel!
In my opinion, he should’ve received a life sentence. Way too lenient.
Both shouldve
@@MadFlavorz Agree
Exactly!! Just because they weren’t successful means nothing!! God has bigger plans for Nicki! Intent should be punished to the full extent of the law!!
Yeah, both of their sentences are way too short. Why?
Omg
The new bf/husband looks exactly like Tim 😬
what a miracle she survived, so glad she is here to tell her side of the story
It’s unfortunate. Hopefully she’ll get her karma one day.
My sister is in the middle of a divorce from a malignant narcissist and with him, he is ALWAYS the victim
He was having relations with that "tenant and student" long before she was 18, and the trigger for him, as a sociopath, was the new boyfriend. Only control. That's everything for him. So damn scary. What's crazy is that he thought he could get away with it. Arrogant and stupid. So glad she survived and has a good man in her life for the sake of the child.
Not to excuse what he did, but it's very odd she would end up with someone so eerily similar looking if he was so abusive.
@@SidewaysInTrafficyoure a damn momo
@@SidewaysInTrafficthey dont look alike at all.
@@jennypham3998 I agree they look completely different! And even if they did look alike why would it matter?? it wasn’t the way he looked that was abusive it was personality.

Every one of his comments have been about either victim blaming,defending/making excuses for the abuser or straight up hatred of women. Seems like a misogynist
@@SidewaysInTrafficwhat a weird thing to say….
Charismatic, controlling and manipulative. He wants to control her but wants nothing to do with his kid and he gets jealous. Classic narcissistic behavior.
This is why women need to have wisdom when they enter into relationships, because those are the types that "sweep you off your feet".
Yep 👍🏾
@@oldhickory4686 yes. Be very careful who you have children with. Because a child means the partner is in your life forever.
@@antjobert Yes indeed, and that's why even the disciples said to Jesus, " it is good not to marry". (Not saying marriage was bad, just being very careful what you enter into)
I love how the woman in the car really stepped up and saved Nicki’s life! Kudos!!
As a 30 year paramedic those 2 useless medics made a major trauma patient Walk to the stretcher instead of bringing the stretcher to the patient
Right!! After I was injured as a passenger in a car accident, with a broken hip (completely severed at the neck of femur), I was made to get myself out the car, walk to the stretcher and get myself on it. You can imagine the pain and the extra damage that caused. Spent 10 weeks completely bedridden in hospital and two full years recovery (I say recovery though I’ve had issues the rest of my life). Some people should not be paramedics.
Lmao. I think he thought it was a vampire nibble
Thank you, that upset me so much! She was a gunshot victim for godsakes and they made her walk to the ambulance??
OH MY GOD !!! I WANTED TO MENTION THAT AS WELL BUT FORGOT TO AT THE END. COULD YOU IMAGINE IF THE BULLET WAS NEAR HER SPINAL CORD AND SHE ENDED UP Paralyzed ?!? HER ANGELS WERE VIGILANT IN KEEPING THE BULLETS FROM DECENDING INTO HER FOREAMEN.
That was my thought. At first I thought the ambulance didn't have room to get near her. But then saw there was plenty of room for the stretcher. Why would you make one walk to the ambulance no matter the type of injury. Should be a teaching moment to ambulance training.
What a complete narcissist!!!! This guy should NEVER be released from jail. He is a dangerous and evil "person".
& so is she/shooter.
18 years is a joke.
She should be worried when he gets out……
Also women. Stop dating or having anything to do with bad boys. 😂
His "Only God can judge me." statement is what made me really think he was guilty.
People should really rethink that phrase, it's not a flex
My abusive narcissist ex used to say that ALL THE TIME. Or he would say “God will forgive me” 🤢
The laziness of the paramedics to make her walk to the stretcher, the narcissism of Tim, and the people pleasing lunacy of Colleen. This case is WILD
She was shot in her neck! One wrong move and she could’ve been potentially paralyzed. 😣😣
You do realize that paramedics can't go into an area of active shooter, has to be cleared by police. This is a case of poor reporting. They have a protocol to save lives, including their own. I can't believe people would actually think they would show up carefree and stupid or lazy. Seems vague, don't you think?
@@Hehasmadeglad1975 the paramedic walked to her in the 'active shooter' area...which it wasn't, the shooter fled. He could have taken the gurney with him, don't you think?

@@AriaJade-ys2tq I've seen them make people having serious asthma attacks walk to the ambulance.
This man is a sociopathic control freak. He used and controlled women - ultimately destroying the life of the woman he persuaded to carry out the shooting for him. He didn't want his son, he wanted control. He is a truly evil man who got off lightly in his sentence.
The ex and the current partner are really alike.
Sounds about right. But that don't say much for the folks easily influenced. Better start using that brain Id say.

I knew it was baby daddy the second they said it happened outside a parenting center.
The person running after her ran like a woman runs, so I didn't think a guy did the shooting.
I didn’t but I kno this woman leaving out her toxic part in the stories. Only talking about what her did but never what she did. N her man did not want her to have a kid n she said no as if it’s only her choice. Then bringing some other dude around her young son. New man should not affect the bio dad relationship.

Demon from the start.
@@frogger1952yeah ran like an out if shape black woman
Emilie Clancy deserves a medal and a lot of recognition. It may not seem like much, to stay with a gunshot victim and stabilize them while calling 911, but it’s massive. I’ve been on either side of this kind of thing and you can’t imagine how much it changes your life. When someone might be dying in your arms you are never “normal again.” Similarly, when you’re dying it’s horrifying and having someone there is so important (which I guess Nicole didn’t experience).
Point is, I think there’s a zero percent chance Emilie doesn’t have PTSD. As someone with PTSD, I have so much respect for someone who willingly alters their life forever for a stranger. Most people will never realize how much something like that can ruin your life, but it can and does. She deserves so much for her sacrifice.
The way she was looking into her eyes with such warmth made me tear up, she was so brave to stop and help her in this day and age of 'me,me, me' not alot of people would have. She's an angel ❤
Everything you said ❤❤❤ I could cry all over again thinking how remarkable Emilie’s actions were! I appreciate Emilie Clancy so much. I hope she has a blessed life forever.

I do not understand why these sentences were so paltry for the crimes committed. Nicole should not have to worry about (especially) Tim's eventual release from prison.
lawmakers are the blame, and most judges don't place any human value on life.
Well let me tell you, he got almost a max sentence. If she would have died, both of them would have gotten life sentences, but because she survived 15 years is usually the max for that charge.

She pauses at just the right times and you are 100 percent sure you are going to hear something interesting. So now I still get that same excitement and it automatically transports me to excitement. Thanks erin....
Tim is a toxic narcissist through and through, no regard for his own son, no compassion for him and how it will impact him for the rest of his life to know he was the one behind his mother being nearly killed. When he couldn’t control Nicki he began making allegations against her and her new boyfriend of sexual abuse towards the child, and such accusations are extremely horrific to imagine but he purposely made it up, just to make Nicki ‘s life a nightmare. When he lost custody and was allowed only a single visitation a week he had then resorted to using a vulnerable teenager to do the shooting of the mother of his son. A child he didn’t want born., and asked her to abort. This man is a complete disgrace to humanity. Toxic narcissist who doesn’t think about anything else but getting his way, controlling and abusing people in order to satisfy his twisted agenda. Psychopath as well most likely..!
My ex and his Dad tried killing me by loosening all the lugnuts on my tires. Then he set me up and took me to court to take my kid. He hasn't really spoken tho that kid as soon as he left n turned 16. That kid is not only my son but my best friend. Sometimes they win and it sucks...but ultimately they don't win because they're evil.
Cops are known to be abusive, come on. We literally see one on the news weekly beating, choking, or murdering someone. Also my younger cousin was a super kind kid, he became a cop in SF and started beating his wife until she left him. This guy interviewed is trying too hard to speak softly and calmly.
People are trouble. Complicated and simple. Amazing and flawed.
Agreed. Nothing wrong with wanting an abortion (no matter if you are a potential mother or a potential father) though..
@@zc6346 Well the thing is that when it’s not your body you can’t dictate if the woman should or shouldn’t have an abortion. If the man didn’t want the responsibility he shouldn’t have had unprotected sex. But he has no right to demand a woman to have an abortion after he gets her pregnant, just because he doesn’t want the responsibility. She also has a choice in the matter..! A man who doesn’t want children has a choice to get a vasectomy or to use protection.
That Good Samaritan that stayed with her was awesome!
You could tell it was a woman in the security footage. Men and women run differently.
Totally agree. That's what I thought straight away.

yup
Yeah. You could instantly tell it was a female the way they used their arms as they ran and the way they moved.
Yep I agree 💯
Man, to shoot someone in broad daylight when cameras are around, that is wild.
Yeah, Colleen is not the sharpest tool in the shed .
Emilie (the bystander) is truly a hero. The way she encouraged Nicki to hold on was very touching.
Also interesting that Colleen immediately took full responsibility and Tim still would not. What a horrible story.
So much love to the stranger who made all the difference in this story! People like her give me hope for humanity, especially when people like him are around.
I used to workout at his gym! He was one of the owners & I had met him a few times. I never would had expected this...I'm so happy that she survived & had an angel there to help save her life! 😪
Just “MET” him. 😆
Mr jig jig 😂😂@@ArturoGarzaID
Do you often look at people and know they might shoot someone? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Seem like he was too good for her. She seems toxic. No one deserves to be shot but she definitely not the innocent victim she portrays
WHAT!!!!!!
Colleen seems like such an immature girl but I think it was admirable that she took full responsibility for what she did.
If I didn't know better, I'd say she was a zombie. The attorney probably wrote the apology statement. She should have gotten life. It's only because she was so epically inept at shooting a gun that the victim survived.
"Admirable" should not be used to describe anything about this person, imo.
He's the epiphany of evil. A liar, whoremonger, physical and emotional abuser, arrogant and unrepentant. I hope Nicole and her family can go on to live a long and healthy life.
Not trying to belittle ya or anything but its "epitome" of evil. "Epiphany" is when ya have a moment of realisation/clarity.

Emily was Nicole guardian angel that day sent from above 😊
They said the killer woman knew the dude since she was 12 years old. Because she was a student of his martial arts. That leads me to believe that more than likely he was also a chomo having underage illegal relations with her before they legally got together down the road. Maybe not when she was 12, but a year or a few after that. Straight disgusting.

That beautiful “stranger,” Emily, what an angel. Hope her and the victims are healing and happy.
Let's be real, Colleen wasn't protecting any child, she was protecting her relationship.
Lots of people in these comments making excuses for her and trying to minimize her guilt. She was influenced, sure, but she knew what she was doing, knew it was wrong, and didn't care. She's sorry NOW because it didn't get her what she wanted.

Women chase that type like catnip….I’ll never understand it
This story reminds me of how my nieces ex treats her, torments her life, lies to CPS, and drags her to court over their son. I wish there was a way to prove mental manipulation and verbal abuse enough to make the abusive parent unable to have partial custody and stop the ability to cause such destruction. Not only does the abusive parent disrupt the lives of everyone in their path, it can mentally damage the child that is used as the pawn.
My daughters dad did the same to me (his family also partipated) when my daughter was a baby, toddler, and til she was about 10 when he finally stopped. He hasnt even seen her in person since she was 3 except for when i changed her last name to mine and we had to go to court for it. I had a stalking civil protection order before she was born but he always violated it and never did more than a few hrs in county jail. Shes 19 now and a freshman in college and hes not been a part of her life. Luckily hes never had any visitation with her and he personally never tried bc hes been an addict for 23 yrs and never tried to get clean either. His parents tried for visitation, but Ohio doesnt have grandparent rights, and bc he lived with them and was actively using anyway, the magistrate didnt grant it. Thank goodness bc its a family of crazies who hate me and theres no telling how different her life would've been .... and not for the better.
Unfortunately, I’m going through this… My husband is manipulating my children. I feel like my life is a nightmare. It’s really hard.
Suggestions: hidden cameras, recording devices, gather evidence for as long as needed, get professional help from abuse counselor with coping, be proactive & never be a victim. Easier said than done but it’s something to try.
Tell your niece to watch her back. He might do something just like this guy did
How dare a father go to court to get to see his kids what a evil monster lol

I wholeheartedly concur, just an absolute putrid cretin of a human being! No amount of so called "manipulation" on the part of some neanderthalic toxic boyfriend/girlfriend has the power to 'make' someone actually carry out something as heinous and depraved as attempting to extinguish another human being's life. Actual coercion, and/or threats.. yes, manipulation, no.
Like Nicki's friend expressed so perfectly... 36:46 The decision on her part to go through with actually shooting this woman was all her own i.e. regardless of what HE wanted, she had a choice and calculatedly chose to go through with it for her own selfish reasons, which Nicki touched on i.e. get the child, please her man and be a happy little family. Absolutely disgusting and unfathomable.
Stop asking why victims stayed. It’s not a productive question. Ask what the perpetrator did to make them feel like they couldn’t leave.

They had a beautiful baby boy and it seemed as if they were very happy. My stepson ended up coming to work with me and after a very short time, he started complaining about his wife. And how much he hated how they were together. Constantly fighting and she was complaining about how much alcohol he was drinking every day. Many times he spoiled about wanting to leave her. This was something that he would talk about almost daily. Then something happened and she ended up locking him out of the house and she filed for divorce. When this happened, I personally saw my stepson become obsessed with the fact that she left him and that he was insulted by this. I cannot begin to tell you how many times the police would come to my home looking for him because of something he did. He would slash her tires, break into her apartment and threaten her and then he actually took his son and attempted to run away with him. It was a sickening obsession about control. He ended up getting arrested and then deported. This case is very similar and all I can say is thank God she lived and was able to get both people behind bars!!! Hopefully she will find people and happiness with her new husband
Thank you for sharing your story.
Wow, I'm sorry your family experienced that. Ppl have to understand, these obsessive ppl ruin so many lives. They ruin their own lives, their family members lives, and their victims lives. It's sad you and his ex had to see him lose it like that.
Thank you for holding your stepson accountable. Some people do everything to protect their guilty children.
"What did women see in him?"
"I don't know 'cause I didn't see it."
🔥
🎯👍 Me either!
Women only talk like that after the fact...you must have only had one girlfriend your entire life.
Same
She was absolute bomb for giving this response... I fell out on my bed literally ! Hilariousness to full cap!
That was the biggest lie of the entire show. If Tim wanted her back then, he would have had her instantly. That’s just the truth. She was just taking shots at him (no pun intended) after knowing what Tim did
18 years for trying to get someone killed and 16 years for someone that pulled the trigger that’s crazy
This!! I’m disgusted that they both will probably be back out on the streets at all or in such little time.
Right, now she has to dread his coming out of jail
Why am I crying!? I just love a happy ending. Good for her. She found her happiness and evil tried to destroy every bit of it. Too bad for him, he failed and can now be miserable every single day while his family moves on with their lives. How can people be so cruel? Especially to someone you once loved and have a child with. How devastating for that sweet boy to have potentially lost his mother. The selfishness is unfathomable. I truly hope he changes his ways and learns to be empathetic towards others. Evil never wins.
U r not crying
Unfortunately evil often wins.
Nicki is a fighter and such a lovely being, I am so glad she's recovered and has such a beautiful family!
He wasn't mad she moved on. He was mad she moved on to someone better. He has a great career, loves her kid, and he's also good looking. He wouldn't have cared if he thought he was the better man
Trying to understand why the paramedics had her walk to the ambulance-- that kind of exertion would accelerate blood loss, not to mention the movement potentially exacerbating the existing injuries..
God & his Angels were by this woman’s side the entire time, the fact that she was able to walk after being shot up close and personal says so much 🙏🏽❤️❤️💯 I hope she know’s how strong she truly is !
All I want to Say is Thank You Angel For Stopping And Helping Nichole 🙏 God Bless You Dear, You Are A True Hero
Tim showed his culpability when, in Family Wise, he immediately raised his arms when asked by police to be searched for weapons. Someone who doesn't know what is going on would immediately have asked why in the world are you asking me this? He didn't ask until after he was patted down. He knew what was going on.
Yes, he acted like nothing was going on. But, the give away was he had no concern about why she never showed up to pick up the son or where she was.
To be fair, MPD has a pretty bad reputation. I would do the same thing he did.
Asking an abuse victim why they stayed is revictimizing. There can be many, many reasons for staying, one being the abuse is also psychological making the victim feel they can't leave. Look up "learned helplessness". Study narcissism and you'll understand this case entirely. Tim is clearly either a narcissist or a sociopath.
I think he may be both.
I actually disagree with you. I think it depends why you're asking.
If you're asking "why did you stay?" In a manner that suggests the victim was stupid for staying etc, then it's wrong. But if you're asking for the purpose of genuinely trying to understand what was going through her head at the time and hearing it firsthand from her, then I don't believe it's fair to assign a distasteful motive in that instance.
It's easy to make assumptions about people who ask that kind of question, because it's often asked in a patronising and belittling manner. But you're also in danger of misreading a person's tone and true intent when it's asked for the purpose of genuine curiosity or intrigue, and I believe that was the motive in this instance.
Here's a better question... Why wouldn't he just stop?
WRONG! THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT QUESTION!
Stop spreading misinformation!
My ex wife in many ways has the same characteristics of Tim. She’s a teacher..controlling. Narcissistic. Accusatory to the enth degree..CPS, police, lies to our child, therapists, courts. I can relate to Nicky’s years of harassment. Thank God that piece of crap cannot try to groom and lie to Callahan like he did with Colleen. God bless the happy family and the ppl that helped through that nightmare!🙏🏻
PS: Ladies beware of a purple light 🤨
Are ppl able to see through her lies?
How is it possible that this narcissist, human waste, is only given 18 years? What are they waiting for, a next victim to lock him up for life?
All my respect to Emily and my best wishes to Nikki and her son. As for the paramedic who made her walk to the ambulance... he's in the wrong job.
💯
Hope she move somewhere . People like him will get revenge after he got out.
@@jennypham3998 It shouldn't be like that, but the sentence has already been given and unfortunately she will have to ensure her safety on her own.
💯 agreed
@@Klara-Hvar EVERYONE should ensure their own safety always.
If you are ever in a domestic violence situation please leave. Especially, if the person has strangled you. Why? Because you deserve better and because it will save your life.
Strangulation increases the chances of that partner killing you. It's one of the biggest indicators that determines if a violent partner will lead to your death.
Edit: As @morselthegod stated when, you leave don't give them any warning. When an abuse victim leaves it's one of the most dangerous times of the relationship. Please be safe, please leave without warning, and please survive. You are worthy of love, compassion, and care.
She did leave him. He obviously couldn't leave her.
Leaving doesn’t stop them. Exactly what this episode is about
They didn´t say because they can´t prove it, but Tim was probably taking steroids for his muscle and fitness stuff which makes the person have violent tantrums... so scary...
@@pokerqAK47exactly
Agreed about the strangulation. If they strangle you ONCE, time's up. If you stay, they will 100% end your life. After the first strangulation, you need to plot your escape and pack up and leave. Never tell the abuser you're leaving until you've already left and he can't find you.
He was Jealous of the fact that she moved with another man 😪😪😪
16 1/2 years because she was a bad shot ? Deserves life without the possibility of parole
I dont understand sentencing anymore...someone else would get life for that but these two get a slap on the wrist. Makes no sense.
If she were a "Good Shot" she would have gotten life.
I think it depends on the state but not sure. If this was Texas they would have gotten Life sentence
@@danieldragowski5085 which is exactly how it should be in every state!
@@Kment011 he got lucky she survived. I guess the judge had to give the maximum 18 years for a non fatal attack
Wow that lady that helped her. So calm and proactive. What a blessing
Omg how am I just now hearing about this? April 20th is my birthday and on this day I had an indoor picnic with my friend in a NE Airbnb only 2 miles away… I’m so glad Nicki’s okay. The lady that stopped to help is a true testament of Minnesotans! We rally for each other! God bless Nicki and all who helped!
They made a shooting victim, shot in the neck walk to the stretcher is what blew my mind. What nonsense was that?
Thank God Nicole survived. It was her day.
There's a reason behind this.
If there's no numbness or any signs of spinal damage, standing up keeps the blood towards the feet and away from the wound resulting in less blood loss.
They're also much more likely to stay conscious, which is ideal for police questioning, medical history taking and avoiding a coma.
@@HomoLegalMedic then they put her horizontally in the ambulance. Come on dude first rule is stabilise the neck and head. It was sheer stupidity on their part.
sometimes it's far more dangerous to leave someone lying- still. If she walks, it might keep her alive and fighting and also helps prevent shock.
Yeah what was the reason for that? It was bizarre to me
It may have been nonsense but had they done it any other way the outcome may not be what it is today and we have a great outcome. God bless the EMS team!
It's sad how a child was weaponized to control & torment Nicki. He didn't want the child. Sadly, abusers will get a woman pregnant to control them & make them dependent. Luckily, Nicki was self-sufficient & could take care of herself & her son when they left him. This made things worst, especially once she started dating. This is typical abuser behavior.
Actually read your first two sentences.
He didn't want the child. She had the child. She forced him into slavery for 18 years. But HE was the one weaponising the child? Christ.
The random lady who helped the victim is soo wholesome, bless her soul, she is a angel ❤❤❤
To shoot down a law enforcement officer of any kind.... Is truly, not very wise.
