A boyfriend is not what those two guys were. The girls were minors, too young to give consent; the men were adults. They're sex offenders.
Merc hi
Merc WHY DO U ONLY COVER STORIES ABOUT WHITE PEOPLE? POCS GO MISSING TOO FYI... AND RARELY GET NOTICED. SMDH
if you are gonna report a story the least you can do is learn how to properly pronounce name because you were pronouncing Brisbane wrong and you also failed to mentioned that Natasha Ryan was pregnant when she was found hiding
drug dealers are being given Life sentences but someone who kidnapped a 14 year old girl for 10 YEARS gets only 5-15 years??? really???
Makes my mind ache....the utter injustice makes me weary in my bones....
AhMericAHH!
That's what I said all of them charges you should have got life
Rarely, but it's probably just a good idea to neither abduct kids nor be involved with illegal drugs.
Its because most judges are pedophiles themselves
We all talking about Tanya but are we gonna talk about the dude who’s footprints just stopped in the snow and then showed up in Massachusetts 15 months later with no memories???? What
I know right?!
Yeah I mean it kinda seems like he was abducted (hopefully not by aliens lol) and maybe drugged or maybe hit his head, it’s all so strange..
Could also have been an episode of temporal lobe epilepsy fits.
look into Missing 411 if you're interested in such stories, it's REALLY interesting! Reddit has some good threads too
Alien abduction
A fourteen year old and a 21 year old aren’t boyfriend and girlfriend. That’s a groomer and a minor.
Right?! How did he get off so easily?
@@jh8320 good lawyer
How he wasn't arrested for that is beyond me
He ended up marrying her, and they are still married
You can look at it as how he manipulated her to think that this is a real relationship but it’s not. It’s an illusion but your description is clearly the reality
the dude who’s footprints just stopped in the snow and then showed up in Massachusetts 15 months later with no memory was for sure scooped by aliens.
Yes that's what I thought as well 😁
*whose
Or a unaware victim of gov black projects....
100*
For sure
A guy who blacked out for 15 months: I don't need a psychologist
A guy who blacked out for 15 months: btw i'm also becoming a psychologist
Lol
Lmao
he faked that cause he was fade away by his life.
I thought that was funny to 🤣🤣
That's how you get a PhD, you literally have to lock yourself away and research and write a get it done! Brother was studying
Imagine a loved one going missing. No closure . No tips. No idea whether to keep looking or heal... then you die. And the whole time they were living a whole new life and didnt remember you. Damn 🥺
Thats deep💯😟😣😞
I think he remembered her. Some people just don't want to be found, she should have took that hint after he left the hotel.
I feel like he was lying and just wanted a new life tbh.
I know what you're saying Crystal that's jacked...
Mia Smith They’re talking about the doctor guy
14-year-old girl: disappears
Her parents: oh no! anyway
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That’s abuse though.
My younger step sister did it so much that even the police said not to call them.
Slight negative I'm cracking up
@@jessicaetrifonov369 ridiculous
Yeah so William went through great lengths to get away from his wife.
So why would he continue lying after she died? I think something happened to him..
What's up checkmark
exactly hahah
I stopped the video to look for a comment like this 😂 my thoughts exactly
i was thinking the same thing
"Relationship" is a *really* generous term for a 37-year-old essentially grooming a 14-year-old.
sandra g still a relationship
@@Andy-bh8hw There's a power imbalance; she's a minor, so it's statutory rape. So, I'mma have to disagree with you there.
@Silver Lady Well, *yes*, that's technically true. But I think it's pretty clear, in this context, that they mean a boyfriend/girlfriend / romantic/sexual relationship.
She may have been willing, but she can't legally consent at age 14 to anything with a 37-year-old man. (Hence, "age of consent" laws. Not even "Romeo and Juliet" laws would apply here.)
sandra g you just admitted to being dumb.
@@fakered7607 And you just admitted to thinking that adult men having relationships with teen girls is AOK. GFY.
Doctor who can't remember his previous marriage, but he never forgot his career... really sketchy.
Agreed. And married long time assistant? Yeah definitely seems planned. Especially running away from the hotel
hahah exactly what i was saying and thinking. He didnt want to be found.
Not necessarily. You can remember your signature during such memory losses. Maybe not if you try to force it but your hands recognise patterns they're used to, like signatures!
But I do agree with you. And he refused professional help!
julio Peralta
I was wondering the same thing! Yes, very sketchy.
I call BS on the Doctor. Dude was running away from the wife, nothing more.
That’s what I was thinking too loo
Yep. How can an amnesiac doctor set up an ophtalmology office?
2 days later skips town again after wife decided to relocate to London 💀💀💀💀
@@danielah3398 Doctors of 1902 were a little... primitive.
😂😂😂😂
"Do you know where your girlfriend is that you just helped run away?"
"No"
"Okay thanks"
Yep. Almost all of these stories passed me off. Especially that one. Only 12 months in prison? Are you SERIOUS?!?!
He tricked a middle school girl into RUNNING AWAY FROM HOME AND LIVING WITH HIM FOR 15 YEARS?!?!?! I mean sure, it was clear they both wanted it, but what the fuck. It manipulation
Yeah I legit sent this to my friend who is a lawyer, and she said that she would've called bullshit on that like they can do a test to see
@@colecube8251 I thought OP’s comment was about the girl with the 21-year-old boyfriend. Not the janitor
@@catsseighteen4365 I'm not sure either tbh. Either way both of those stories pissed me off
Not his girlfriend. She was underage.
Wow, dude in the first story did all that to a minor child and only got 5 to 15 years but people are being locked up for 20 and 30 years sometimes life for drugs. I would much rather sit on a park bench with my son on my lap next to a guy that has drugs in his pocket then I would a pedophile any day. The justice system is basically encouraging it with sentences like that.
And then on top of it, those who are in prison for that long for a simple drug charge really struggle to re-enter society when they're free which is absolutely unfair. The system is a mess.
llriv drug laws vary greatly from state to state. you definitely have a point but at the same time some states are stricter than others so it wouldn’t be too surprising to hear some bullshit like this. it also depends on the individual court. around me, the town over is way harsher on their punishments. they seem to care more about making money off drug charges than anything else
They get locked up for secondary drug offenses on parole. Their original case is almost always much worse.
So no people don’t get 20 years for drugs in their pocket.
You're not getting 20-30 years or life for drugs unless you have an extensive legal history, there are significant extenuating circumstances, and/or you've got a significant amount and are distributing. There may be a couple rare exceptions which likely end up in a later reduced sentencing, but generally speaking you have to really push the envelope to get more than fines, probation, or a light sentence for drugs.
Well nothing I said was false. People should look up Craig Cesal, he's locked up for life for a first-time drug offense involving weed and he's still in prison to this day. He's watched murderers and rapists get released while he still sits in there. Just knowing about his case alone and knowing he's still locked up and that piece of shit in the 1st story did all that to that child and will be able to get out and be free is terrifying enough for me. You would figure with the systems that we have in place today somebody would be like damn we need to fix that but unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case.
It's very jarring to hear 'girlfriend' in the two stories of these teen girls. I had to go back and double check their ages, I even looked up the age of consent in Australia. Whatever the girls might have wanted to be to these men, they weren't girlfriends. They were victims.
Yeah, this is my first video from this channel and probably last. I don’t like the idea of thinking of innocent children as girlfriends of pedos.
I know plenty of teenagers who willingly seek out adult men for boyfriends. I was one of them. I never felt boys my age were on my level. I was not a victim.
Saoirse Victeoiria I’m surprised the parents were aware of the 21 year old “boyfriend” and didn’t really do much other than letting in get fined... a parent would’ve likely beaten him up as a warning to stay away from their daughter. Additionally they should’ve taken care of their daughter more than they were doing.
Big Mona Natasha was 14. FOURTEEN. A 14 year old girl dating a 21 year old man. She’s hardly a teen, and honestly if you think you’re not a victim it’s because you somehow still haven’t matured yet. The teenage brain and the adult brain work differently. Not to mention there’s a huge power difference between a teen and an adult. Idk what to say. What you and Natasha did was not okay 🙃
It honestly is quite disturbing and now 22 years on from when she initially ran away they are married and have 3 kids or something like that (however I’m not 100% sure if they are still married all I know is they were at one point if not still) and about a year ago or so it was like big news in the paper about her can’t remember what for but might have been 20 years after the fact kind of thing or it had something to do with them being pictured together with their kids I’m not entirely sure
imagine believing your dad is dead but you found him walking in your kitchen
Well there is the case of 2 year old Kelvin Santos in Brazil in 2012 who died. At his funeral, he woke up in his coffin, sat up and said he was thirsty. Astonished that he was alive, they quickly gave him some water. After drinking it, he laid back down in his coffin and died. He never awoke again. This really did happen.

@@merricat3025 definitely

How the hell did he get away with hiding Tanya from his parents for 4 years and they didn’t know?!!
Bro c'mon obviously she was hiding in a bush the whole game
Did you hear about the three women in Cleveland, OH who were kept for like 14 years?
@@calinasagilitypartner4444 but no one else was in the house, just Castro and the 3 women ..

Sounds about right, but let someone get caught selling drugs and they’ll throw a banhammer on your life
lol
„Aren’t you supposed to be dead?“
„Yes.“
„Okay, cool. Bye bye then.“
Damn that William Bates guy really wanted to start over a couple of times.
Yeah that guy for sure just didn't want to be with his wife anymore😅
Exactly 😅. It sounds suspicious that he conveniently forgot about his past life, moved around and married thrice too
@@achaides I came to say this lol
‘Sorry babe I just don’t remember any of that’ must have been a solid excuse back in the day. This guy ruined it for the rest of us 🤪

Your voice and diction are refreshing compared to what many other channels are like, when presenting these sorts of stories. No added drama, just what happened. It's great

Andrew Cornejo she was a child????
@@Andy-bh8hw dude whether or not she went with willingly she was a minor! Plus she didn't who know she willingly went with was the son of Satan okay!

Victor Sullivan 5 years isn’t long enough to make for the abuse and trauma that poor girl has to endure for the rest of her life
Are we gonna ignore the fact that she had an American accent the whole video and then she said hartlepool or whatever and she was suddenly British
Makenna Nichols Ahah! Right 😂
Lmao!!! I noticed that too! I even mocked it out loud after haha
yeah that threw me waaayy off
Bruh I thought I was trippin

So dude fakes his own death, and his wife serves more prison time than him? I get that she helped him the whole way, but still. HE was the one who was supposedly dead.
imo, it was because he was pretending to be dead, she was not. being 'dead' his movements were limited, therefore it was up to his wife to play the bigger role of convincing the authority and the insurance company of his disappearance / death with lies (and crimes). Therefore, it is not surprising that she would have more visible evidences piled against her compared to him since he basically tried his best to go undetected while she was 'openly' lying / manipulating the situation.
@@fifichii Totally. And If i was the judge I'd also factor in that dude trying to avoid everyone and most social life has been kind of in jail so far anyway
@@fifichii Also, it's the wife that officially got all the money.
He payed a far bigger price by being the dead one, wife got to live an almost normal life after his "death".
@Tracie Irene they both got the same time in jail...
For the case of Steven Kubacki, based on what is mentioned in the video, it sounds very similar to him having an episode of Dissociative Fugue. It is a type of disassociative disorder that is marked by an unexpected travel away from home and work, an assumption of a new identity, and the inability to remember the previous identity. Such an episode usually ends when the person 'wakes up' with no memory of what happened in the duration of the fugue. It is somewhat related to Disassociative Amnesia where a person suffers from memory loss due to overwhelming stress.
Thank you for this info. I wonder what his other life was and if anyone from it is missing him or looking for him.
That was exactly what I reckoned when I heard the story.
My first thought was Faeries, but this sounds good too.
So let me get this straight, a prestigious doctor forgets all memories of his life, but remembers how to practice medicine?!?!?! I personally think he was a narcissist & got sick of the women, so he discarded them, moved on & made up lies about his disappearances & memory issues.
Possible but not necessarily. Not a lot is known about how the brain really works. People who have strokes sometimes forget certain things entirely yet remember others perfectly. There is a case of a man in the Pacific Northwest suffered a brain injury in an assault outside a neighborhood bar and became a mathematical genius. Not just suddenly good at it when he hadn't been before. An outright genius when previously he had had no interest or development whatsoever. Prior to the injury, he had no interest in math and science and worked in retail as a floor salesman.
Anonymike So he didn't know the supposed wife at all, yet still trusted her and walked out the door with her to stay in a hotel with her while he recovered from a condition he never knew existed? Get out of here. Would you let a random woman take you out of work tomorrow because she's telling you that she's your wife?
@@MarioGoatse If he was in an abnormal state of mind, maybe. You just don't know.
I've heard that memories can be easily forgotten where as skills can almost never be forgotten from trauma like this.
Fugue is also very possible in these cases
Who the hell waits a week to report a minor child missing even if they'd run away before? The doctor that disappeared twice and couldn't remember anything but never forgot how to practice medicine is fishy.
I thought so as well. Maybe her home/family was not the greatest, maybe that made it easier for that grown ass man to groom and basically abduct her. Maybe she felt he was the only one caring for her. Predators have a sixth sense for choosing the right victims.
He definitely had a second family lol
I worked with a bloke who had a heart attack while he was a chef. He forgot how to cook he forgot his wife. His only child. He even forgot how to write. But one thing he didn't forget was how to hotwire a car.. it sounds unbelievable but it can happen
Somebody doesn't walk out twice, by accident. He left her on purpose the first time, she just couldn't accept it and kept looking for him after the second time but he clearly did not want to be found.
My man William Bates never "went missing." Dude was just the most legendary playa that ever lived
I thought the same!
Feel sad for his wife though. I think she died because of the stress of not having her husband around
Lol on life this is how I feel too.. He's something else.. Smh. He's cruel to me💯
@@gunnervin she was a Mason…
Nah he was a mason who hid his life , that means he's a fake dude not a playa, real plays are honest.
The last one, omg. I couldn’t forgive my parents. What an insane betrayal by both parents.
When their sons found out,they cut all contact with them!!
I imagine I would, too.
All because they were escaping debt! Ridiculous
@@amethyst1826 Yes, but apparently they have forgiven their mother ever since.

Please stop calling underage people 'boyfriend/girlfriend' when someone over 18 is taking advantage and grooming them.
Lyric Ulvog Predator or predatory act is more appropriate
Why not?
My "girlfriend" was 13 when I was 31. Should I quit calling her my girlfriend?
@@danroberts9050 you should not be calling her a girlfriend at the age of 31 is she was 13. If that was the case, she was your victim not girlfriend
@@keynat9755 Why would you say such a thing?
so he held her captive for ten years but gets a minimum of 5 years in prison that is messed up
Meanwhile some non violent drug dealers get minimum 30 years or even life sentences
Sounds like William just didn't want to be married to the first wife anymore...
Some serious safeguarding fails in Tanya's case. She was taken out class? She wasn't reported missing for a week?
Her parents didn’t bother reporting her missing because she “had a history of running away” and even when they did, the police put very little effort to finding her and just gave up because she had a history of running away. Apparently her home life was seriously effed up. Every adult in her life failed her seriously.
@@melissaguillory9012 Those are some awful parents she had...no matter her history of running away

I’m realizing that the Netflix series “Cruel Summer “ is based off the first story.
yes, except it is on freeform 😂
Yesssss
Yeah I was like wait this is literally cruel summer
It’s on freeform
Probably not. It’s a similar situation but most likely not what it’s based on
These are some of my favorites where you finally figure out why they disappeared. Makes me wonder how many people disappeared on purpose that we don't know about.
You know the justice system is beyond broken when crimes against a child only get you 5 to 15 years
Yep bc the judges are in on getting paid off by some of the people or involved in human trafficking themselves getting money to let people off and not go to prison. I know of one case. 😳😭
Natasha's case is kinda weird, her 14 went missing having a 21year old boyfriend and then they ask him if he knows anything he obviously says no and they don’t even check his house???? like common its logical to ATLEAST check his house LMAO
FR
You have to have probable cause if no one or thing can show he might have been involved (simply dating isn’t enough for a warrant) you’re innocent and protected. It would be up to investigators to continue looking into him, but since there was a serial killer…unfortunate timing.
William didn't disappear neither he lost memory, he was just running from his wife, for a guy who later married 2 more times, that's plein obvious
but why was he malnourished then?

A kid "Scott" I went to high school with, father went missing for over 10 years and his mom had him declared dead when no activity on his social security number for over 7 years. Then on spring break 10 of us went to Coco Beach Florida and while we are hanging out on the beach we saw Scott's face flush white and when we looked up to see what did it right in front of us was his father with a much younger woman and 2 little kids! He didn't recognize his own son until Scott walked over and said WTF. His dad tried to play stupid until the woman got involved and the argument got loud! Turns out his dad had not only abandoned them but had done it to another family 1 town over from were we lived. He had taken the name and social security number of his cousin who was slightly mentally disabled but did not work and stilled live with his parents, and he didn't steal it they knew full well he was using it. So he was starting families like franchises wherever he went. The problem was he was supporting 2 full families and lost his job so he dropped his car next to the river in our hometown and he moved on to start his new life free and clear! We don't know how many families he started or how many kids he abandoned because after hd told Scott what he did he bolted again. Scott gave the name to the police and they tracked it to a small house in Kissimmee Florida but when yhey got there the family was gone. His 48 year old dad his 23 year old wife and 2 small children who the neighbors said were a nice family and very friendly. It was crazy and it really messed Scott up but the cops said this way more common than you think! That blew my mind but also I wondered how common truly?
Similar happened to my family. My aunt and uncle went through a lengthy divorce, during which they'd both moved on to new partners and even eventually became cordial. He got full custody of kids and everything he wanted, had a nice house free and clear on his family's huge property, nice car, etc. Two days after they signed divorce papers his car was found on the side of the highway with his wallet and phone in it still. No activity on his bank account or even social media, no hospital records. After 4 years of him being a missing person we feared the worst. Until one of his other nieces (on his side of fam) found him on Facebook under a different name, showing he was in a relationship and lived in Florida too! -He disappeared from Washington. She messaged him and he immediately blocked her and deleted the account. After that we all assume he's alive and doesn't want to be found. No one has had contact with him since then. It's very heartbreaking for his kids who were small children when he disappeared and believed their dad may have died only to find out as preteen/teen their dad was alive and had actually abandoned them. I lived with my aunt and uncle before their divorce and I was pretty close to him. I can't tell you how many times I swore he wouldn't just dissappear. There was no reason! Finding out he may be living it up in Florida made me very angry, but at the same time a part of me is happy he is alive and I do hope to talk to him one day. It's ridiculous but I want closure so bad even though I know I'd probably just get more upset.
The wife stayed with him? I would’ve bolted quick.
Tina M
Wow, these are amazing stories. I cannot imagine leaving my daughter. Even though I’m not with her mom anymore, and I have wanted to relocate to a different city, I would never do that because I wouldn’t get my 50% of time with her. I’m shocked that people can just leave their kids. There has to be some sort of narcissism or sociopathy in these people, who don’t feel that love for their children.
That's fucked
How can people do such things
I really wanna give scott a hug
Excusssseee me! 5-15 years?!? For fricking kidnapping for long 10 years?!? What the hell?! That man should be locked for life
Outrageous. Something I know is going to seem like a small point, but all she was allowed to eat were peanut butter & jelly sandwiches. Further proof he didn't give a damn about her, what a horrible diet.
I don't mean to make light of the problem with him getting what seems a ridiculously small sentence. That is as I said outrageous.
jordan Michael siegel, I totally agree with you.
These stories don't add up. You can't be mentally fine and not remember 15 months of your life that JUST occurred. You also can't just forget your entire life and move on but still remember you're a doctor and have your entire memory in place to open up a practice lol
Honestly, the creepiest part of this whole video is the random English accent when you said “Hartlepool”.....
to me it seems like she mispronounced it due to her American accent and they had to dub a correct pronunciation over it later
@@nvexe8822 I know, still makes it oddly unnerving tho
Even funnier was the pronunciation of Norwich union as Nor…witch, when it’s pronounced Norridge!
I heard that too I was like ??? Glad someone else noticed
i thought i was having a stroke when i heard that
The way the narrator jumps into a perfect English accent when she says "at Seaton Carew in Hartlepool" at 11:30 disturbs me greatly lol
Ikr!
I thought it was bot doing the narration.
Okay 😫
Æugh
Haaatleepul😭
Lmao no memory of his previous life yet he remembered enough to start a new practice and he also apparently never forgot his longtime assistant. Can't remember his wife tho.... lmfao what
@Skylar Romano his wife was chasing him for years
So this dude William doesn’t remember shit, but remembers how to be a doctor?

I suffered a fugue state, it lasted seven years. some things feel familiar but my life feels like a hotel, I never quite feel at home. I woke one night at 3:47 AM in 2019 and found my children seven years older. In three years I haven’t reclaimed any of my memories but occasionally I do recognize something and it feels like lightning in a bottle in my brain. I wouldn’t wish this on anyone…
I've been there, so I get it.🫂
@@joycealigamhe4739 I’ve never met a fellow fuguer, care to share?
@@vickit7149 sure. I used to have out of body experiences as a child, especially during intense violence & abuse, but never for an extended period of time.
Then a friend died in 2017.
I don't remember anything for the next 7 months after that call. I woke up one day in another state living with my cousin, I had people talking to me as "friends" who I didn't recognize. I'd added weight & it took a while to adjust to my new clothing sizes. I would automatically pick my previous size & realize later that I was no longer that size.
Even now, I go to places and people greet me like they know me and they know my name, but I don't ever recognise them.
@@joycealigamhe4739 I’m crying right now because your life mirrors mine perfectly,, I really never thought I would meet someone who’s been through some thing like my fugue state episode.. I barely can remember where dishes and cutlery goes in my own kitchen(I “woke up “December 2019)much less remember things about friends or people in my life. I was in a car accident and suffered a quite severe concussion, I believe that’s what started the fugue state episode. I asked my family and friends if there was any indication or any of my behavior seemed off and all of them said no I seem completely normal, which just makes me think that all these people who I love and who love me, don’t really know me at all.. I don’t even know myself at all.
@@vickit7149 yes! I don't know where things are too.
And yeah apparently nothing was different about me. It makes you question your sanity. It's so lonely & depressing because people just don't believe you "forgot" whole months and conversations.
I'm really sorry about your accident and I hope you're better now. Yeah it's probably due to head trauma. I had a lot of those growing up.
The Steven story reminds me of missing 411 cases where people who are found think they got lost in the forest for a few hours because they didn't observe the sun going down... but are told they were actually missing for several days or weeks. It's like a weird time warp .
Same.
I can only imagine how mad I’d be if I moved to another country to get away and my spouse still finds me. I’m going to start having memory problems too 👁👄👁
LMAO!!!
I know! She was one determined woman!
😱😭🤣 too funny. I'd let them have a seat in the living room, then run out the back door. Like an intense game of hide n seek.

My dad is 8 years older than my mom and there are happy couple to this day.
The age difference isn't the major problem just a part of it. The problem is that the girl is 14 had she been 21 dating a 28 y/o this ceases to be a problem.
I’m convinced Steven was abducted by aliens
Me too!
Possible.

There's a medical condition called a Fugue state. It almost always occurs in a person who is traveling in some fashion. They very suddenly develop complete amnesia, but simply pick up a new life. If they regain the memories of their previous life, they loose all recollection of the life they lead while in the Fugue state. Most likely his tracks had been covered by the wind, and the tracks found belonged to someone else, who left the lake using their own footsteps to make walking in the snow easier, or he may have traced his own tracks for the same reason.
Add E yes ik 😂 it’s called dissociative fugue and it’s a mental health diagnosis within the DSM5. I’m just being dramatic lol
Lucy: Walks into apartment after being missing for five years.
Ricky: "Loo-see? You got some 'splainin' to do."
It’s possible that steven has DID. And another personality took over for 15 months .
Yeah! thats what i was thinking also
This kind of story actually isn't really common for people with DID. Alters (not called personalities) are formed to help a person's psyche survive through great amounts of trauma, they're usually very good at being covert, and don't just run away or do things for no reason. The only reason I'd think this would happen with DID would be if he was in a terribly abusive situation, wasn't able to process what to do and an alter took over in order to get away, and that's possible but it didn't seem like it was the case.
More likely this would be a fugue state, which is a period of long term disassociation with lost memory. Stories like this with people going into fugue states and thinking they are somebody else for long periods aren't at all uncommon, and the weird thing about this one is definitely just the footprints suddenly stopping.
It's good to remember that DID is a disorder that works in very reasonable ways, usually just in reaction to triggering or unsafe situations and isn't a catch-all for when people have memory loss :)
The truth is out there 👽
or he simply just lied.....
It sounds more like dissociative fugue to me. It's very rare, but people with this condition lose any sense of who they are, and impulsively start wandering and traveling, and this can last for months before memories of their identity come back, and they wake up like the ordeal was just a dream.
Poor Williams wife, she stayed looking for him until she died... She died young... I wonder from what??? Steven and Williams case is weird and kinda similar... Except Steven couldn't remember 15 months and William couldn't remember several years... Thats scary and weird thag we could just snap one day, disappear, and not remember what happened....
That last part, reminds me of the Holly Ellsworth-Clark case in Hamilton, so sad
maybe stress
Exactly what I was thinking...it freaks me out so bad how people can just vanish without a trace like wtf I don't want to believe in supernatural stuff because humans are scary enough IMO but sometimes you have to wonder...
Nah, he left her. He wanted to be missing. Steven's could be anything from drug use, running from the mob, etc. I'm not saying people cannot forget long periods due to trauma or lots of drug use, but in most cases, it's just a way to copout of a real explanation.
I've owned the book of the first girl for years. He let her walk around places with him for a while because of how brainwashed she was after ten years. Eventually he allowed her to walk to the store/church/park on her own, trusting her. That's how she was able to get help and escape from that man. She was with him for almost 14 years.
Oh wt
Oh wow
When you hear your hometown and you’re like oh my God And get that feeling in your chest
The town my bf lives in is in one of these and I shrieked
So nice of them to reappear after so long, I know when you've been disappeared for a while there's a lot of pressure to be apparent and conspicuous, but here these girls are just winging it and that's so important to everyone who might reappear some day.
Some of those people were so selfish! Especially the last couple, actually making their sons believe their dad was dead. Horrible parents. 🙄
My mom's friend was kidnapped from a young age and was found 25 years later..... She had holes in her ears from abuse lots of trauma bruises she also had a baby this stuff went ON FOR 25 YEARS she escaped while her kidnappers were being distracted by the Snoopy neighbor she slipped out the basement window and ran to the closest police statio
God omg, that's so disgusting and cruel!
O.O
Very good... factual, clear, lovely voice, interesting stories.
"She attended her own murder trial" lol what
There’s a story on the TV show “I Survived” about Tanyas real full account if anyone is interested. There’s more to the story.

Thank you
Thank you.

"Reports of my death have been highly exaggerated"- Mark Twain
Something fishy about that second case. I don't like it. If you can't remember anything for the last 15 months why wouldn't you want to see a therapist? Get some answers?....
Exactly! A famous therapist once wrote, " Never see a therapist who refuses therapy themselves. It shows a lack of willingness to do the self work they encourage from their own patients."
You have to accept that you need therapy before you see a therapist. He went through something traumatic and does not want to believe that. Once he goes to therapy, he is admitting something traumatic happened.
He was probably on drugs or something and felt ashamed. That, or he was doing some suspicious shit and doesn't want to get caught.
@Raz Patnaik She's referring to the fact that he later became a therapist. He's literally practicing in Seattle as of now.
Fear. He doesn't want answers.
I' m laughing at William Bates so much. He returned with little memory, left again and continued his opthamology profession but refused remember his previous life & previous disappearance.😂😂😂😂😂
He was also a fraud who claimed he could fix bad eyesight through training. In other words, he was a scam artist. He probably has a second wife somewhere else, possibly under a different name.
Cool stories, thanks for sharing.
Imagine losing your memories. Living a different life for 15 months. Then those new memories disappear and your old memories come back. Damn...
It would make us question our past life, our past decisions. People would reconsider everything I guess

@@ndeeyah88 Thank you for letting me know about that.
Natasha Ryan married her bf after he served his 12 months in prison and they have 3 children together
That story about that Natasha character was outright bizarre. She must have really HATED her family to let it get to the point that they had a funeral service for her.
it sounds more like her "boyfriend", aka that 21 year old man grooming her, had very intense control over her......
Actually if you watch interviews with her she pretty much states that things at home were "that bad". She would have done anything to not go back. The man is her husband now and apparently they live a very normal life in the burbs. She has tried to reconnect with her family but it's apparently been rough according to Natasha.
@@virg0_lem0nade if you run away multiple times and you parents don't care at all it MUST BE the boyfriend....comment detectives at work
Herr Schmidt No. Thats not what’s being said. A 21 year old man should not be hiding, fucking or dating a 14 year old girl. There is no way for her to actually consent psychologically or physically. She’s too young to understand the implications at that point and he probably manipulated her to some degree.
@@timeittakestoletgo1687 wrong case
Regarding Tanya's case. I'm an educator and if the school custodian called one of my students out of my classroom, I'm asking questions, taking names, and I'm straight snitching! Not on my watch!
How cruel must the Darwin's be to tell their sons that their Dad was dead. I can't imagine!
Imagen showing up to court for your own murder trial... Like just "Yhea, Hi guys. I'm not dead so, he didn't murder me at least."
😂😂
we all know the guy in the third story was just trying to get away from his wife cmon lol you cant remember anything but you remember your profession hahaha
Man Man
😂😂The exact same thing I thought!😂😂
There are easier ways to get out of relationships. But, he could have retained the knowledge of his profession. The brain is one of the greatest mysteries in life!
Just as, if not forced, he could have written his own signature because of having done it so many times before and it being a memory of his hand. Whether he would have known who's signature it was would be another thing entirely!
I'm not saying you are wrong, I'm just adding my bit!
But, if he knew who he was, why not get his money? I bet his mistress thought she was gonna be very well off. Lol
@@amethyst1826 Yes, but to work as a doctor he'd have to prove his education and credentials, so he obviously remembered who he was.

Exactly! You’re 1000% correct.
I don't believe Steven doesn't remember those 15 months that he conveniently won't discuss with anyone. I call bs on him and the doctor.
yeah well chances are U will never get his confession.
i’m like 3 sec in and i just want to say you’re a real one for not putting a single ad on this
Steven's case is actually not all that uncommon... Even tho its weird and we cant comprehend how he can't recall 15 months there actually quite a few cases like this...
Yup
Wow really?? Stevens case is so baffling what do you think happens with these cases??
Steven's case is interesting. How did he manage to travel that far? Who owned the clothes and satchel? How did he survive for 15 months, without having any recollection of it? I wish we could learn more about it.
@@eileenmartinez6523 He probably suffered dissociative fugue (aka fugue state).

There is so many misconceptions about the Natasha Ryan case. They're married now, and when she "reappeared", they were living only a few streets from her mum's place.
She came out after she heard about Leonard (aka Lenny the loon) Frazer claiming he'd murdered her, as she didn't want her parents to think that he'd done something really disgusting to her, as he was a sick f***. The so called witness, who claimed that she was in a secret relationship with Frazer was just trying to cause trouble and concern for Natasha family, as it is well documented about his numerous sick crimes.
Natasha paid a high price for what she did, with it taking a very long time for her mum to forgive her. Natasha and Scott eventually married, and she has a very close relationship with her mum now. ( I'm not sure about how things are going with her dad.)
There has been a few magazine articles over the years regarding Natasha, and she has also done a 60 minutes interview, with her mum. She has gone on to get her life together,with Scott, and I'm pretty sure that they have a kid or two as well.
Not too convinced about the Dr’s memory loss 😏. Seems like he wanted to disappear and ‘remain lost’
These men "forgetting" how they disappeared is so annoying. They didn't forget they just wanted to escape their marriages lol
Just because they dont rememeber doesn't mean they're trying to escape humans can't remember everything especially if something happened to their brains you shouldn't make a joke out of these disappearances
Something traumatic could have happened and their brains couldn’t handle it and close that part off
@@niayahyah Traumatic like....they suddenly realise they've married the wrong person lol
@@fraggit 😂😂smdh lord I hope not

The most shocking part of this to me is the Family having a memorial for their daughter without any evidence of foul play. You’d think as a parent you would never give up hope on finding your child until she returns or her body is found.
You're very naive if you don't realize there are some evil people acting as parents out there. Parents do a lot worse things than hold a memorial for their unprovingly dead daughter.
Also some bodies never are found. After 20 years I'd want some kind of personal closure. Hope is nice but it's just pathetic after awhile.
@@minxymoo2325 I’m not naive to bad parents by any means. Needing final closure after 20 years is reasonable I completely understand that. But 2-3 years is insane to me. Must of had insurance or something on the child if you’re willing to pronounce them dead within a couple years smh
Just wow on all these stories. Especially the one about the hiker that showed up in Pittsfield Ma, I live in MA. And the eerie way he had a satchel and clothes that weren’t his and not knowing where he was?! Just scary and strange!
First guy only got 5-15 years... what a joke.

A disfunctional family.

Parents: She'll be back. Pass the remote, please.
