The way that those parents raise their kids. It is more like prison. It's like a program specifically designed to destroy someone's individuality and personality.
They had too much pressure put on em, to do right, when they couldn't, the pressure got to jacob and he just blowed a gasket, no entertainment, video games, friends, TV, or anything, that's sad, ya can't shelter young people, when you do this, they won't know how to act around people and be sociable, instead, they'll be stand offish. That's what was wrong with this family they led a sheltered life/a controlled life, a life that would never force on anybody, that boy was gettin tired of the pressure, so,like I said, he blowed a gasket/went to pieces. This is what happens when ya try to control young people, ya can't do that, you can tell em what to do that's all you can do.
@@Ron-zi3cghe wasn't that young 25 and not allowed to have a girlfriend. 25 years in prison. He wanted out so bad of his misery he 0ut a bullet in his head. The court think he was sane they are disgusting like he evil mother.
Cathy's authoritarian regime cost her not only her life but her son's. She was abusive and her husband allowed it. Some people are more mentally able to cope than others. Yes, I'm victim blaming.
That was child abuse and torture! I feel sorry for the kids, but have 0 empty for their parents, especially the mother. She had it coming. She drove that kid crazy. And I don't think she got a place in heaven. Hell is where she is. The parents scared the crap out of those kids. The control their mother kept was sick. She was a narcissist. Even the damn program was her idea, because she thought she was so special. All I wonder is why James 🤔
He doesn't need anyones forgiveness, the mother does. And the father. He was allowing her wife's tyranny and played along. So no, Jacob doesn't need his forgiveness. He should be ashamed of himself and should be serving time for serial child abuse. He has 🩸 in his hands. I hope the surviving children haven't continued followin in their parents path with raising their children.
I remember seeing the episode and one section to get tokens was “having a good attitude” which I thought was so weird almost like they weren’t allowed to be upset. When Cathy was with the other family one of the girls made a point to of her giving tokens for behavior that shouldn’t be rewarded because it should just be done or something along those lines. Those things just always stood out to me from that episode
It seems like he didn't have any coping skills. His parents treated him like the hired hand. He had no friends or family that he could talk to and relate to. It's very sad.
Fanaticism collides with absence of responsibility or structure, combined with an unnatural intermediary.. Seems like a breeding ground for internal confusion and conflict. The suppression of open communication due to a oppressive environment. Results in depression from feeling powerless, leading to rage once the combustion grew...An explosion or release of this magnitude seems highly possible.
Interesting, compelling and thought provoking. We are such an egocentric species, aware of our own awareness. Which leads me to often ponder, the profound lesson of conceding to the fact.... We just don't know nearly as much as we'd like to believe.
I know it’s not good to speak poorly of the dead, however, I can’t spare any sympathy for the mom and the monster that she was. She (Kathy) clearly did not know how to be a proper parent, and thus thought by manipulating her children, and keeping them on a tight leash, that it would somehow have them grow up to be the “good Christian men.” I don’t feel bad for Kathy whatsoever. My heart instead goes out to the sons she left behind (I don’t even feel bad for the husband). I hope Jacob learns to forgive himself… if only to help him realize the horrible crime he committed.
It's really sad that this happened. Looking at his face, I see a lot of the things I feel when I am in a mental health downward spiral. Thing is, I have a support system and the ability to control my own life. I don't feel like he did. I can see that from his escape attempts from the facility (I imagine the structure and rules brought him right back). Not to say this excuses the loss of life. He was responsible for that, but he also needed help. I hope I make sense. I have a lot of thoughts and feelings about this, and it makes it all hard to put into words
You do make sense! It's so sad he was in this kind of environment. He was probably very creative and a free thinker and all of that was squashed by parents who wanted total control. Does it look like he had any support system either. Unfortunately, I think he must have felt this was the only way out.
This case is quite interesting…: It seems in recent years incidence of young adults murdering seems to be on the rise. As I see it more and more I have to consider this more of a societal failure. I asked myself how are we failing them? I theorize that this is what’s wrong with participation trophies… they are always winners. They never learn to lose or how to cope with loss or anger and then they get out in the real world and their high school sweetheart breaks up with them and they can’t cope. Now I add that to my life experiences. My kids’ dad and I were pretty old fashioned parents. We were a bit more strict than some parents we knew…(like leaving the store when your child has a temper tantrum). I spent a lot of time deflecting any possible negativity so I didn’t affect my kids. When their dad passed away it was a horrible sick feeling. I couldn’t keep them from this pain it’s impossible and that really bothered me until suddenly I realized I had been doing it wrong I wasn’t supposed to be just protecting them from these things, I should have been teaching them how to cope with things we can’t control. Luckily i think I caught on just in time to help my kids with that: So now we have this very devout Christian family who simplify essentially eliminated temptations and outside influences so we feel like living a good and basic Christian life that these are some of the least likely things to have this happen to them but it did. In my mind it just goes to show that it doesn’t matter who you are or how much money you have or what you believe this happens when we lack coping skills to deal with anger and loss.
I am not justifying his actions but being this strict is never ok. Yes protect them, be there for them. Lead and guide them , but don’t do it to the point they can’t have no sense of self . These are children . Parents like this don’t realize these are growing people will eventually be adults who have to function in society . Besides you’re only young once , let them have their youth .
She removed the ability for them to form their identies, experience rights and responsibilities, form bonds with other kids etc. These are most important during teenage years where you learn through experience. The program wasn't the cause, it showed this young man what life is supposed to be. He felt trapped, lonely and miserable causing bouts of major depression and the only way he could find freedom was to remove part of his family and himself. Some people here say "well he's an adult he knew what he was doing", WRONG. Also wanting to end his own life showed he was also suffering with pain. This is the cause and effect of stripping away what every person should have growing up but didn't.
Of course they forgive him, they knew the abuse from their mother wasnt going to stop n the husband should be held to some accountability he allowed this mental abuse, physical forced labor, etc. Absolutely ridiculous to charge him that much time!! Hes lucky to be alive, him shooting himself is punishment enuff!!
I just feel sorry for the young lads , never control yor kids to this degree . No wonder it turned sour. And as for the parents telling the boys that if they don't do their chores that they would " burn in hell" 😞 wtf??? Too strict,, too busy,,too sheltered,, they have no thoughts of their own. They have been severely brainwashed. The mother looks as if she may have suffered from depression and likley a religious fanatic. X
Can you imagine if one of their kids said they were gay? I wonder what torture emotionally and physically she would have come up with. Horrible parents. Extremes of any kind are dangerous to a person’s mental health and ability to function.
The mother did she have sex to create 4 sons or did the stalks drop them off so sad Jacob should be a free man now 😢 if there was a petition for that id be first to sign absolutely get him angry with his wife but we will never know why his young brother maybe didn't want that lifestyle for himself and brother anymore maybe the parents couldn't cope with losing their 2 older sons and became very obsessive with last 2 sons treating them even worse when they had 4 sons
CONTROL ISSUES Horrendous to live through this. This is an exception where I really do think the teen was suffering from mental issues heavily. As well as everyone else!! He just snapped bc of it…. Imagine being mentally ill because of abuse and having to interact with mentally ill family. With no escape! It’s like your soul is hostage. It’s torment even if it doesn’t appear that horrendous outside.
After wife swap, the world he knew tht his parents raised was far more different then the way the other parents raised their children made him feel tht he committed a sin and they betrayed the beliefs they were raised in..
I like the part where you mention that there are advantages to both parenting styles. Psychologist call them permissive and authoritarian parenting styles, and there are obvious benefits from each. There are also severe drawbacks to each. If you are a permissive parent, you need to focus a lot on activating and motivating rather than just letting them do what they want. If you are an authoritarian parent, you need to carve out areas of autonomy and Independence and give your child choices and allow them to direct their activities. Both parenting styles have drawbacks, but why is parents can adjust to address the drawback.
8:17 That's a crazy mix right there to put two families together opposite ways of living! Like if they knew that the other family that was closed in was going to feel some sort away about other ways of living! Definitely a disaster!
Most reality tv shows do not give any serious consideration to the long term consequences these programs have their participants. But then there’s the participants who also have the responsibility to recognize the consequences of putting their lives or the lives the production companies want to put out there. Money is always the end game. For the production company AND their participants. What are they willing to sacrifice for it? Be safe out there.
Oh my God the first things you were saying would cause this .,,, homeschooled on a farm. No tv no dating No connections to the outside. Just hanging out playing Bluegrass with your family. Yeah I don’t think so.
Oh yes, just blame it all on the tv-production company that THEY were responsible for it all 🙄🤦🏻♀️Heck no!, i bet that no matter if they had been attending in ‘wife swap’ or not, this would’ve happened anyway, those kids were living a life worse than being in a prison or a monastery and that caused a huge frustration and anger to build up and it ended in the worst way 😣🫣 I’m glad that the rest of his family have forgiven him, they probably could see how bad things were too 😢
Do you think he remembers everything taught his whole life of 25yrs like repetition? Does he speak coherently or not at all? Memory problems like short term memory loss? I have that and some other things.what exactly did she do that day for Jacob to just walk into the bathroom to end his mother's life? I honestly think that James must have run in hearing the shots trying to rustle the gun out of Jacobs hands at that moment Jacob probably didn't care and shot like a zombie then must have come back to reality seeing his brother what he'd done couldn't handle it so attempted to end his life? How powerful was the gun? What angle did he hit? His surgeries aren't too bad looking now, I think his right side was hit.are both eyes real or one fake? Will he be traumatized for the rest of his life if he hears music or reading the bible will it trigger that night? What was his state of mind throughout his trial? From the sound of it that he wasn't allowed simple pleasures, he's probably still a virgin.never to hold a woman in his arms feeling such love and happiness or his own children.a relative of mine chose to be honest with his children no Santa, no Easter bunny, all because he felt robbed and so upset when he found out no Santa because some kid at school told him, he didn't want to believe it so he punched the other kid getting in trouble and that's basically only the first time to a long list of other things.i was a snooper.wgen my parents werent home I searched my parents closets seeing labels on presents saying from Santa curiously in my mom's handwriting yes that's right handwriting! Why doesn't school teach that anymore? Or pledge allegiance in the morning and the newest in a town banning jingle bells ?does anyone else feel that the song is about slavery like that school? It's like dude it's a happy song! Seems like to me that's robbing the childrens happiness as they run down the stairs, with our cameras in hand, I freaking loved to make my daughter happy.due to that happiness, being a lively glow the guys are drawn to even her cousins who thinks she's cool.anyways I hope he's getting some kind of helpful treatment, anger management something to do there besides lift weights although that surfer traveling guy has his own you tube channel working out in front of the camera.its just really sad the way things turned around after the wife swap their freedom, playing games gone as soon as his mother came home, probably he was feeling resentment and angry, bubbled up inside so many years.poor kids😢 I keep trying to find out how he's doing but I keep forgetting 🤷
When i hear how the mom treated them, i fully understand how 💩hit the fan after the other ‘mother’ had been in the house and gave them a taste of a better and more happy life out of slavery, i totally understand that he was feeling trapped in hell after that, it was just so sad that he couldn’t find another way out of it than committing murder 😭
Umm its not wife swap fault...zz.. the parents literally signed up. Why would the show put you with a family thats just like yours. So of course it will be a total opposite family. Problem is there is a such thing as being strict. These parents put these kids in a prison and used religion to scare them.
The narrator stated the father & brothers chose to forgive him. We're all supposed to forgive those who trespass against us. Its biblical. Being Christians & the killer being family, its natural they'd forgive gim. Its not easy & can be quite a struggle. I had to forgive the man who murdered my friend's child. Then, i had to forgive my niece's killer. If you harbor hatred & anger, it festers like an infected wound. God cannot forgive us of our transgressions if we cant forgive each other. Psalm 23 says in part, ..forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. (Trespass refers to sin).
Wow! I'm sorry for your loss. Thanks for sharing! I appreciate what you said. Holding on to something will definitely eat at you. Thanks for commenting!
Children are tired of being abused, trapped, unloved, over worked from the moment they wake till the moment they went to sleep. Mother controlling was so harsh. That women was evillll. I am celebate my choice i bet she is not mrs perfect Christian. She has a husband, but expected her Son's to experience Love which is Natural and the Bible says it. God Made women for a man everyone knows that.
I hope the mommy dearest knew what was coming i hope she saw the gun come her way. Sounds cold ,but she was cold to 4 babies she gave birth to. Did the husband have to earn tokens for sex. Christians make their own rules. Thought the Man ran the household the leader didn't look that way to me.
@@freakywhat unfortunately no one in her family said she was abusive. Not 1 neighbor, Aunt, Uncle, cousin no one. Maybe they did and she did not care. All I know is I am a Great Loving Mother that believes in spoiling.
This is showcased on your channel because like your channel name says it is “freaky”. In cases where someone takes the life of a family member we can not comprehend. Peoples privacy and anonymity should still be respected. You can not predict or prevent this from happening if you are an outsider. This is a sad and unfortunate story.
Wife Swapping is a slap across the face to God. You can't practice Christianity andcarry on with Sin like its Nothing. You will feel thexwrath of the Almighty.
Oh come on … you can’t blame Wife Swap, their parents were monsters (burn in hell ?!?. Poor little kid) well before the film crew arrived. I feel for those kids :(
The way that those parents raise their kids. It is more like prison. It's like a program specifically designed to destroy someone's individuality and personality.
It sure was!
They had too much pressure put on em, to do right, when they couldn't, the pressure got to jacob and he just blowed a gasket, no entertainment, video games, friends, TV, or anything, that's sad, ya can't shelter young people, when you do this, they won't know how to act around people and be sociable, instead, they'll be stand offish.

For Real..
Cathy's authoritarian regime cost her not only her life but her son's. She was abusive and her husband allowed it. Some people are more mentally able to cope than others. Yes, I'm victim blaming.
She was definitely a source of held resentment for Jacob. Is say she might have been the main source. Thanks for commenting!
That was child abuse and torture! I feel sorry for the kids, but have 0 empty for their parents, especially the mother.
She had it coming. She drove that kid crazy.
And I don't think she got a place in heaven. Hell is where she is.
The parents scared the crap out of those kids. The control their mother kept was sick. She was a narcissist.
Even the damn program was her idea, because she thought she was so special.
All I wonder is why James 🤔
I wonder that too! She was insanely controlling. Thanks for the comment!
You know what's funny? His mom used to be a fucking stripper
Yeah
Shouldn’t blame Jacob for his reactions… His monster mom pushed EVERYONE’S buttons…. Even mine 🤯🥵
She was definitely something! 🥵
He doesn't need anyones forgiveness, the mother does. And the father. He was allowing her wife's tyranny and played along.
So no, Jacob doesn't need his forgiveness. He should be ashamed of himself and should be serving time for serial child abuse. He has 🩸 in his hands.
I hope the surviving children haven't continued followin in their parents path with raising their children.
Reminds me of a mini cult with a terrible outcome!
Umm so off a 12yo cause of it
The brother though 😭
I'm guessing the wife swap event is where the kids got a taste of freedom first time
Most definitely. Sad

Me too. It was really weird the way she was almost militaristic. Thanks for watching!

Great comment. Thanks!
Those are some horrible parents smfh
Most definitely
The Son that shot himself is INSANE and should not spend 1 more day in prison. To the 12 jurors SHAME on You.
👍. Definitely insane. Lots of trauma
Those boys are in the category of abuse. CPS hopefully seen this video that proves the abuse. Save the children.
👍
I am not justifying his actions but being this strict is never ok. Yes protect them, be there for them. Lead and guide them , but don’t do it to the point they can’t have no sense of self . These are children . Parents like this don’t realize these are growing people will eventually be adults who have to function in society . Besides you’re only young once , let them have their youth .
Well said!
Only 2 boys home their chores were probably overwhelming. 25 years old not allowed to date that Mother was Evillllll.
👍
great editing! subscribed 🙂
Thank you! I really appreciate it.
This clip should have been SHOWN to the Jurors. SHAME on the Jurors and the parents.
Definitely

That mother was a tyrant. I'm not surprised the kid snapped.
👍👍👍
Bro 5 minutes in and I got my answer on why he did it. Could never imagine every aspect of my life being controlled like that
Yeah, that would be a hard life. I can't imagine living like that! Thanks for watching!
Wow Jacob was created by that home life. He’s so 😢😮
♥️👍
Of course they forgive him, they knew the abuse from their mother wasnt going to stop n the husband should be held to some accountability he allowed this mental abuse, physical forced labor, etc. Absolutely ridiculous to charge him that much time!! Hes lucky to be alive, him shooting himself is punishment enuff!!
Thanks for the comment!
great content btw. well done!
Thanks so much for watching! I really appreciate it! 😌
I just feel sorry for the young lads , never control yor kids to this degree . No wonder it turned sour. And as for the parents telling the boys that if they don't do their chores that they would " burn in hell" 😞 wtf??? Too strict,, too busy,,too sheltered,, they have no thoughts of their own. They have been severely brainwashed. The mother looks as if she may have suffered from depression and likley a religious fanatic. X
She was definitely messed up. Poor kids
You have a great reading voice!
Thanks so much! I love doing this. 😁👍👍
Be very careful which cult you bring your kids up...
Absolutely!
Can you imagine if one of their kids said they were gay? I wonder what torture emotionally and physically she would have come up with. Horrible parents. Extremes of any kind are dangerous to a person’s mental health and ability to function.
THIS☝️. Great comment! Extreme's are dangerous!

Sorry mum not wife getting angry
Definitely a crazy mother. Sad story for sure
CONTROL ISSUES

Very well put! Thanks for watching.
Not at all the crews fault, no one else on the show hit up their strict family 😢
😥
After wife swap, the world he knew tht his parents raised was far more different then the way the other parents raised their children made him feel tht he committed a sin and they betrayed the beliefs they were raised in..
True👍
Jacob probably has more freedom in prison than he ever did at home.

Thanks! I love your comment. It definitely has to be balanced. It's a sad situation that some kids don't have that balance. Thanks for watching!
Balance is key 💖 too much of anything can be dangerous in many ways.

Here me out.. what if he didn't do it? What if it was a set up?
Good question. It is possible
Because that Jesus ish is evil

Reminds me of it too!
Kids are fighting back. To you parents that are evil you may be next.
Army of kids

Oh just listening to the lifestyle I understand already why the son did what he did! Yet at 25 her should have been left home 🤷🏽♀️
👍👍
How is the father doing no one to control, help with farm, help with band. YOU did this to yourself.
👍
She did that show for 50 THOUSAND DOLLARS AGAIN ALLLLL FOR Catherine.
👍
Umm its not wife swap fault...zz.. the parents literally signed up. Why would the show put you with a family thats just like yours. So of course it will be a total opposite family. Problem is there is a such thing as being strict. These parents put these kids in a prison and used religion to scare them.
Yep! Thanks for the comment. 👍
The narrator stated the father & brothers chose to forgive him. We're all supposed to forgive those who trespass against us. Its biblical. Being Christians & the killer being family, its natural they'd forgive gim. Its not easy & can be quite a struggle. I had to forgive the man who murdered my friend's child. Then, i had to forgive my niece's killer. If you harbor hatred & anger, it festers like an infected wound. God cannot forgive us of our transgressions if we cant forgive each other. Psalm 23 says in part, ..forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. (Trespass refers to sin).
Wow! I'm sorry for your loss. Thanks for sharing! I appreciate what you said. Holding on to something will definitely eat at you. Thanks for commenting!
Children are tired of being abused, trapped, unloved, over worked from the moment they wake till the moment they went to sleep. Mother controlling was so harsh. That women was evillll. I am celebate my choice i bet she is not mrs perfect Christian. She has a husband, but expected her Son's to experience Love which is Natural and the Bible says it. God Made women for a man everyone knows that.
👍
I hope the mommy dearest knew what was coming i hope she saw the gun come her way. Sounds cold ,but she was cold to 4 babies she gave birth to. Did the husband have to earn tokens for sex. Christians make their own rules. Thought the Man ran the household the leader didn't look that way to me.
The mom definitely wore the pants in that family and acted like a drill sergeant. The sad part is, she thought she was doing "good and right".
@@freakywhat unfortunately no one in her family said she was abusive. Not 1 neighbor, Aunt, Uncle, cousin no one. Maybe they did and she did not care. All I know is I am a Great Loving Mother that believes in spoiling.
This is showcased on your channel because like your channel name says it is “freaky”. In cases where someone takes the life of a family member we can not comprehend. Peoples privacy and anonymity should still be respected. You can not predict or prevent this from happening if you are an outsider. This is a sad and unfortunate story.
Thanks for the comment! It is a sad story.
That's was the problem home christian values,
😳🤷♀️
Wife Swapping is a slap across the face to God.
You can't practice Christianity andcarry on with Sin like its Nothing. You will feel thexwrath of the Almighty.
Thanks for watching
Oh come on … you can’t blame Wife Swap, their parents were monsters (burn in hell ?!?. Poor little kid) well before the film crew arrived. I feel for those kids :(
