My house got robbed once and they just waited till we were not home. That is all they had to do was wait until no one was home.
They were smart

This is why I don't have friends
Diet Bleach yes, me too, I don't trust anyone
the pathetic part about your statement is it's coming to that with people where you can't trust anyone or want to trust anyone
Trev Mac that will be you're downfall trusting the wrong person will be the death of you...r.i.p
Hey *GOOB* you better R.I.P
We can be friends
I'd never kill my friend for 20 thousand let alone a million
Francisco Lopez your a real friend then hopefully you stay like that.
Think you got that phrase the wrong way round mate.
id take it instead lol why kill but i wouldnt take it anyways bcuz 1 million isnt worth having chance to u whole life destroyed
I wouldn’t kill my friend for a million, let alone 20 grand.
This phrase is wrong😂😂😂
I don't understand how someone can be so stupid. Don't they know the consciences of murder? Don't they realise that most people don't get away with it?
i would just say that if they got away with it most people wouldnt know, thus making it not common knowledge if it's doable or not.
The only time you should kill someone is if they are getting ready to kill you that’s my believe
Perhaps you meant consequences
Only a third of all murderers worldwide get convicted
C. Morgan Free
Why is the wall so thin that they could hear one another? What is wrong wth this police station? Why aren't they taking this murder seriously??
I was wondering that too. But I think it's part of the strategy. They like to pitt suspects against each other to get the truth. No honour amongst thieves etc.
Yeah i acree with C. They cant just do that.
Daisy W It's psychological, it's to get them to rat each other out.
Daisy W they can and they do. Wake up
It was done purposely. They are _far_ from stupid.
Honestly I don't get death row. Why don't you just let them rot in prison instead of taking the easy way out?
iplayabari 8675 the tax payers have too pay more out of their pockets for inmates. So just giving a vicious murderer life is at the expense of honest, hard working non-murderers vs giving them capitol punishment.
iplayabari 8675 I think it gives the family a sense of justice? I totally agree but everyone has their own opinion.
It actually costs MORE to execute (normally) than to keep a person in prison for life. Death row costs, extra legalities and appeals, etc. end up costing MILLIONS.
too the people saying it’s about tax payers money: there are more than 2500+ inmates on death row in the US & in the whole of 2017, 23 inmates were executed.
Therefore, prisoners have a much higher chance of living out their life & dying from other causes whilst being held in prison.
The amount of money spent on monitoring/staffing/needs for death row prisoners is surely more than if they were in general pop & didn’t need constant 1 on 1 surveillance and lockdown? not even including the legal cost to actually execute them
Innocent until proven guilty, you cannot assume someone killed someone just to fulfill your desire for closure, cases have to be built and evidence and psychologists need to evaluate people. Some people lose their entire lives being in prison when they've been falsely accused and it's discovered after their death, how is that justice?
They did all this for *money* wtf
C. Morgan Free yes most not all crimes involve money somehow, this isn’t new.
20k usd no less, not even a lot.
C. Morgan Free that's what they say at least. If it was just money they Could've waited a week till the victim went to join the navy which is what he was going to do
Everything has a price
ImThatGuy12234 That price is TOO low
You could see why Mosley was detached, he'd only known the victim for 24 hours. At least he took responsibility for his actions, heinous though they were. Myers was his childhood friend yet expressed no emotion whatsoever throughout. He was obviously the mastermind and had his friend murdered. I've never seen anyone more deserving of the death penalty for what he planned for poor Justin. Horrible way to die for a fine, upstanding young man. Hope Myers gets despatched soon.
I live very near to where this happened and talked to some deputy sheriffs who worked on the case. They all said that Austin Myers is the devil in the felsh. I am not sure if they showed it in the documentry, but the deputy talked about how Austin watched the color in Justin's face change as he held Justin's head in his hands. He described this is great detail and watched the life drain out of Justin. He talked about his eyes seemed to change and he could see his life leaving him. Austin is an evil, evil man.
roquefortaddict Who the fuck is Mosley or Myers?
roquefortaddict j
Nick Tracy Jeffrey Dahmer, Edmund Kemper, The Zodiac Killer, Jack the Ripper, Dennis Raider aka. BTK, John Wayne Gacy, etc. Ted Bundy is nowhere near the worst.
l Mastiff l, why did Dahmer get released? He's one of the worst, no?
I’m not going to act like I knew who did what, but there was something very off about the first kid. His tone of voice was very low, he had trouble with eye contact and he started scratching himself while he was telling his story.
The second was shaking and stuttering constantly.
Yeah but that doant prove him guilty. Idk enough to say anything though
because he was lying ???
The first one has a history of family violence from his father.. Maybe it was just school rumors.. But there was a lot done to him as a child. And the other has always had a speech impediment, he went to classes for it as a kid
We got a Sherlock Holmes here
Imagine being in a situation where detectives tell you that you're never going home ever and the choice you gotta make now is for life in prison or death.
Well maybe they shouldn’t have killed him or got caught
Watched all of this a few weeks back! some horrible people in this world
Fuzion180 like 90% of them
My Granddaughter is picking the wrong people to be friends with, and I feel helpless.
limpack1 😘
He was a Saint an angel and the ones who want to kill him deserve to die
Art Trombley, maybe try showing her that she deserves better than them. Are their personalities affecting her in any way? (Like are they changing her in a bad way? If so, it’s usually due to peer pressure and I think it’s better to stop this before it goes too far)
So they thought somehow they can get away with murder? Smh!
Vlad Igor they can but it would be hard
Vlad Igor first couple of days are the most important when it comes to murder cases after that it becomes harder.
@Mina Guobadia no.
Money is the root of all evil
nope humans are

The love of money

Satan Found the incel
At least the one guy told the truth and didn’t lie about what he did
they both lied at first then meyers started telling first
You don’t know that. Tim lied at first then heard Austin through the walls, (no accident I’m sure). Tim decides he’ll give a different story and now claimed it was Austin.Tim makes ‘the deal’ to save his own skin. The murder was planned.
This happened down the road from a friend of mine. She knew the family. They still live in the home. This is such a heartbreaking situation. Every time I go to visit my friend. I think of Justin. Cringing, thinking the killers took the same road I did. A kid with his whole life ahead of him. To be murdered by a friend, for nothing. God Bless the family. It’s been 8 years now. And the memory of Justin, is still on the hearts of everyone in that town.
Such a senseless murder.
Justin was a handsome kid, too.
His parents must've been so proud of him, about to join the Navy. Poor guy.
Murdered by two friends.
I would help the one without a death sentence get out early.
So I could kill him the same way they did my kid.
JUST STARTING LIFE & NOW IN PRISON FOR LIFE & DEATH SENTENCE, WHAT A WASTE OF LIFE SO SAD
Also, the saddest thing is there was no money. Only papers and so on in the safe. So it was all for nothing anyway.
@@AJT86 you see that as the saddest thing in this happening? Oh boy you are lost af...
@@Marco-929 It's not the saddest thing about this, obviously. It's just sad that there kids lost their future at the end of the day, over nothing. One died, and the other two will die in a cell. What a waste of life, an diver something as boring as money, that wasn't even there.
Instead of killing his best friend they could of knocked him out
Instead of knocking him out for money they could get a job
Or they could wait till no ones home and then steal. That way no one dies and if they are discovered. They won’t spend the rest of their lives In prison
@@donaldduck8571 thats not gonna get u 10,00 dude they shoulda went to collge meyers seems to be smart.
@@taziyahware3095 10.00?? Thats ten dollars lol.
R.I.P Justin Back He Never Deserved To Die Especially In That Way 😭😭😭😭😭 And I Hope His Family And Friends Recover 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 And I Hope Everyone Is Having A Great Day God Bless Everyone 😀
The brains of the operation thought that getting someone to kill would free him from major fault if caught. Joke is on him. The muscle confessed to doing everything and still the person who planned the murder got death penalty.
Stephanie Sanchez or, the real brains behind it successfully pinned the blame on the other.
Timmy definitely did not have the brains lol
Yeah you ain’t the brains if u plan to kill people with someone who really gonna do it in real life then tell on themself to get you solitary instead of them ,and the boys was like u awesome Timmy I’m gonna make sure Austin rot tho ? Maybe I’m missing something . Body found the same day? Shouldn’t they be more confident before throwing plea deals ? This is next level stupid and sad.
surprised they conducted interviews in rooms where the other person can hear it!
It's so sad that Justin Back had to face his executioners, and thought they were his friends. He must have been so confused as to why they were killing him. Austin Myers will know that his executioner isn't his friend and he will know exactly why he's being killed.
imagine getting literally backstabbed by your friends because you're rich. 😢
They weren't rich. There was no money in the safe. Just commenting for the record.
Why do they have 100% evidence that the one denying it did it? I missed that part.
Scarlet Peoni same someone else could have
Scarlet Peoni he admitted to it
Sin where?
Watch the episode it's pretty obvious he was the brains behind the plan the other guy was obviously in the wrong but was used by Austin Myers to get what he wanted.
4:30
He's tapping the walls because he knows he was lying.
He wanted him to know he could hear him
In prison for killing
Death row because of shooting a dead body
Harrison Coleman that’s so stupid smh
No, for planning the murder and manipulating someone else into committing it. He was just as responsible. Also, Mosley was also facing death until he took a plea to avoid it.
Your a moron!
They were both facing death but with Austin denying his role in the murder he could potentially walk free with Timothy admitting his part in the murder so by offering him a plea deal they can nail Austin.
Hearing him saying that his plan was to just choke him, no blood is just really disturbing to me. How can you plan on killing someone just for money? Seriously what is wrong with people
Neither of them have any remorse. The Austen kid said at the trial when he took the stand “Please don’t give me the death penalty. You will only hurt another innocent family again.”
As you can see, when he’s telling the story he’s keeps itching himself. When someone lies, someone is trying to lie but not doing it well.
While the other person was telling the story, he’s keeps moving side to side, front and back. So how can this be true? Is it? Is it not?
Tim Mosely and Austin Myers deserve the same punishment whether it be life without parole or CP.
I went to school with Austin and the dude was so strange he tried to pick fights with everyone.
Lies
Really
I sense some cap
I wouldn't say he would try to pick fights with everyone, but he was mischievous and I always tried avoiding him.
Hope BBC make more of these series. They were really interesting programmes.
I wish someone would load full episodes of this show. Ive seen them all but i could rewatch.
Honestly, what police department has walls for interrogation you can hear the other person talking??? Poor design.
Death is not the Greatest loss in life, the greatest loss in life is what dies inside while still alive. Never Surrender..........
That makes no sense. Death IS the greatest loss to those who didn't deserve it.
WhaT_a_Rainy_day Wrong.
Trippy Atheist I get what your saying.
“keep your friends close and your enemies closer”
He snitched quick
The model with the two prisoners & probability is very accurate. When a lengthy prison sentence is on the horizon, the outcome is easy to predict when you set up the stage properly. The officers knew the thin wall was the perfect stage.
The Prisoners' Dilemma
But there's no honor along thieves, so it probably isn't much of a moral dilemma for them.
For you guys who think it was stupid for the cops to put them in side-by-side rooms with no soundproof barrier, this is how you exploit the "willing to testify" suspect to hopefully pin them both with conflicting testimonies. LOL
Worked like a Charm here.
They both deserved the death penalty but one was smart enough to take a plea for life without parole.
But why he should gotten house arrest
This honestly is not fair at all. The one who actually killed the victim gets a life sentence and the other one who was basically adding to the trouble gets a death sentencing. I understand that Justin was already dead before getting shot, and that the shooting was unnecessary, but why give him a death sentence?
"Take out Justin because he was in the way" It's scary how they talk about another person that they know as something they can just remove to get the money they want.
YOU KNOW *they could have just made that poor kid wait outside like it was a “surprise” and they could have stolen the money. They didn’t have to kill a POOR KID*
True friends would NEVER be murderous AT ALL. I've been friends with same person since 6th grade. We're now 51yo.
Great documentary
Two words for this: PURE EVIL!
I knew them both.. went to school with them had same classes with Austin Myers... crazy
i would be shocked to know horrible people was around me :/
Wow...I'm glad you weren't friends with them, because if you were that could've ended in a whole different way.
Same, man! I briefly dated timmy in like my softmore year. Sent shivers down my spine to find out what he done. I called my friends as soon as news broke and thanked them for never really letting me go alone.
@@CATBOYMEOWCAT me and my brother took a guy to fight timmy because he wanted to and lets just say timmy won pretty easily and was kinda hard to watch in person, kneed him in the eye while he was on his knees
An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind
That life sentence with no parole is gonna be tough when they find out he's a snitch.
Lawyer. "I want to speak to an attorney."
Guilty or innocent, this should be the ONLY thing anybody says to a cop without an attorney present.
I wonder what he is going to choose to eat
toxic friends. toxic lies. toxic death. toxic situations and toxic people everywhere. you never know who is evil under a smile.
Imagine how he must of felt knowing he was going to be killed
So sad😞
I hate murderers but the thought of someone being sentenced to death is terrifying and inhuman to me.
Lops just remember they aren't the victim.
Richie Rich it's wrong to kill innocent people who don't deserve to die. They could have pulled of this robbery and the guy could still be alive.
calistenicgaming lol whatever you say bleeding heart. Its wrong to kill innocent people. They aren't innocent.
Gtfo they deserve to die for killing
calistenicgaming you bleeding hearts are the worse things in this world. You want them alive so much go live them. I'm not a republican or democratic. I'm a independent.
Great... It’s midnight and I’ve found my way to this area of the internet again.
This is why so called 'friends' should not be trusted. Trust is so difficult to come by for this very reason.
1:06 HES SCRATCHING HIS ARM
could he be lying oof
4:24 he's shaking his legs
zak 😂😂😂
They made their own version of the meme
_"Could you shoot your bestfriend on the leg for 1000,000$"_
The walls are that thin in the precinct that he can hear himself being thrown under the bus
boyyy i don’t need friends anymore
These crazy/evil people (SMH)
Wait, so they guy who killed him got life in prison and the guy who shot the body after it was already dead got the death penalty? LOL
frettete because he pre planned the murder and told the other guy to kill. He was the brains behind it all and the initiator.
Austin Myers and Tim Mosley's case seems to NOT be the ONLY case for which the one who "committed the 'physical killing'" was sentenced to life in prison while the mastermind received the death penalty. Another example case for which the person who did the "physical killing" received life in prison while the person who planned the murder (e.g., the "mastermind") received the death penalty was the one that occurred in California in the 1980s with Maureen McDermott. For the case in California, Maureen McDermott hired her accomplice Jimmy Luna to murder her roommate Stephen Eldridge (also for monetary reasons). Similar to the Austin Myers and Tim Mosley's case, Maureen McDermott seemed to NOT have participated in the actual "physical killing" of Stephen Eldridge while Jimmy Luna, whom was hired by Maureen McDermott, recruited two other men and then stabbed Stephen Eldridge several times and mutilated Stephen Eldridge after the victim (Stephen Eldridge) died. On the other hand, similar to Tim Mosley, Jimmy Luna also pleaded guilty and hence also received life in prison WITHOUT parole while Maureen McDermott, similar to Austin Myers, was convicted and sentenced to DEATH (and has remained on California's Death Row ever since). The only video that I can find that describes Maureen McDermott's case is under "Deadly Women" (under Season 8, the episode "Hunger for Cash") in the following link: ua-cam.com/video/WartIaddg_s/v-deo.html.
On the other hand, I think that ALL four (Jimmy Luna, Maureen McDermott, Tim Mosley, Austin Myers) should have been sentenced to death for what they had done. However, since Jimmy Luna and Tim Mosley pleaded guilty to their crimes and appeared to be the ones who were "sent by the mastermind", life without parole seemed to be a slightly more reasonable sentence for them, compared to both Maureen McDermott and Austin Myers who seemed to be the masterminds of their crimes and also seemed to refuse admitting their guilt until "the very end" (based on the video from the above weblink about Maureen McDermott and this video on Austin Myers).
that's white America. lol and don't be black while doing this mess.
Mosely testified in return for removal of the death penalty as an option. How is this hard to understand?
James Shkreli van Hoogstraten hes the one that made the plan to murder him, he deserves to die. The only redeeming thing the other guy did was narc out his friend and because of that someone who would meticulously plan a murder is off the streets.
I wouldve taken the death sentence instead of the life time in prison with no parole.
What the hell?!! How can they be so sure about everything that have been told!! Death penalty!! Really?!! Sick people...
I think they should have interviewed them separately without the other one hearing it cause what if he was making things up because the other one was lying and accusing him too. It could be a 2 man crime.
Thought that too. I get that it helped motivate the other to talk, but then he had a foundation of material to manipulate and re-tell in his way. Even by the end of the documentary I had a hard time believing his story was 100% truth.
But why defeat death with death? It’s extremely messed up, what they did, but the people deciding who’s gonna get executed, are doing the exact same thing as the murderer.
killing innocent people is wrong. this robbery could have happened with nobody dying they simple wanted to kill to see what it was like.
Sissel Søfteland this isnt a game or a war. Theres no winning or losing you goddamn idiot. Theres letting a killer off to interact with other human beings or stopping him. Im sure that if his partner hadnt have told his friends part in it all hed be getting executed. The kid made a deal, and if they didnt honor the deal then no one would ever make one again. We would lose missing people, we would lose the ability to catch some criminals because why would anyone cause themselves more harm for no reason? They obviously dont have much morals wise so they need incentives. Its disgusting, but thats noones fault but the perps
Gtfo
we never wanted to kill any of those two...ever
but they made a decision to make us want to kill them
If they didn’t get death, eventually they could re-enter society. And then they’d do the exact same thing and kill someone else that’s innocent.
I'm glad I don't have friends like that...
absolutely heart broken for justins parents & i watch crime shows all the time but honestly this case is just too horrible ,im a mum & i cant bare seeing mrs backs pain
I knew this kid. Who was the Victim. He was good friends with my nieces. You honestly, could not ask for a more kind-hearted, goal-oriented, bright and happy kid. Who was enlisting to be in the Navy and was well on his way. These two have to be real monsters to commit this on Justin of all people.
Das ist Rache und Vergeltung,aber keine Gerechtigkeit!😢

@@kristjan5645 yup just to get their smelly asses in prison
Wait so the guy that killed him is getting life in Jail and the guy who didn't is getting Death Row? Errrrrrr huh?
Famdingo tim had a plea deal if he didn't testify against austin, austin may not be in jail.
Famdingo The person who plans the murder is taken more seriously. And rightfully so.
Famdingo plus the guy who got death row shot the body afterwards and planned to pour septic enzymes on it so it would decompose faster
the guy who got the death penalty shot the lifeless body in the head just to make sure he is dead
that is murder in my eyes
qaching but that is not murder tho the definition of murder is the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another so the one who stab him should be getting death row and the other life with no parole but the justice system is fucked up.
This literally describes me and this boy getting wrote up.Im Tim he’s Austin🤣😂🤣😂
Sometimes I think they think they can go home after they confess not realizing there isn’t a teenager section in jail. I would love to see their faces when those bars clink behind them😂😂😂
Good. That boy lost his life over $20,000... no life is worth killing for any amount of money. He should be put on death row.
Ur math is terrible
oh no
Random but I love how Experience by Ludovico Einaudi is playing faintly at the end
Great parenting skills
So the guy who didnt kill the victim is the one who gets the death penalty but the one who DID kill him, gets life?
Sylar He PLANNED it, he also shot him twice in the head. The guy did not get death penalty because he cooperatedz
It’s 2018 and my phone has better quality then this shit
This is the dumb things about girls the conversation
makeabitchbleed to record long term they need the memory. They need to be able to store it with the least memory possible so quality I'd at the bare minimum
@Jason Woods who's sending a dude that?
It’s actually sad that they threw their lives away.
Plea deals are perverting justice rather than pursuing justice. Usually the one who accepts the plea bargain is also guilty.
if killing is so wrong, why give death row in the first place? lmao idgi
killing is wrong, whoever is killed!
Lol maybe you can take care of him.
nobody is innocent
+Xavier So you're willing to make exceptions when it comes to your values? It's wrong to kill, but acceptable in certain circumstances? Sounds pretty hypocritical to me. Like a double-standard. Either you're against murder, or your for it. Make up your mind. Death row is just state-sanctioned murder.
Mysterious Enigma no it doesn’t have to be black and white like that, that way of thinking makes no sense. What about killing for self defence, say a guy has a knife against your throat and so you shoot him in the head? That is still murder. You still killed him, but you needed to. See how murder isn’t always wrong? Context is important in deciding whether something is right and wrong, generalising an ideology among all situations is stupid because every situation is different. Both of the killers should have the death penalty, not so much for punishment, but to just get rid of them, and for justice for the family. They are literal scum. If they violate somebody else’s RIGHT to their own life then their right to live should be revoked. ESPECIALLY when it is 100% that they killed the guy. Imagine if your whole family got killed by these two, would you still want them lounging at prison, eating three square meals a day and having a place to sleep and have hygiene, a higher standard of living than some people who have done nothing criminal, for example the homeless. Fuck that. I would not want them alive.
Austin didn't even do shit, wtf!
Seriously - are you dumb? He planned, recruted muscles and helped kill his best friend since years, made sure he was dead by putting a bullet to his head - all this to rob him. And you say he did nothing???
Anette Boström Sidestål, ok but why did he get put in for life if he didn't even pull the trigger? They Should've switched the sentences....
Killcard707 it's called proxy murder it's the same crime Charles manson got charged with it. It's kinda like hiring a hitman. In the eyes of the law if you know about and allow it to happen your just as responsible. In this case it seems like they got the correct people. Charles manson I don't if he really did it.
An eye for an eye will make everyone blind.
Why so much of hate and lust in this world?
So this guy gets death row for killing one person? Capital punishment should be reserved solely for extreme cases, particularly people who you can't help or fix. In cases like this, life in prison, in solitary, is enough. I'll never understand how the law works in America, how they deem one case worthy or death row or not.
One person's life has value. Even yours but, I guess you would think the same if the shoe was in the other foot. Becareful with your words.

Well I'm sadly to tell you that you're wrong.
Honestly I would’ve rather gotten the death penalty then life with no parole
