Sheriff Grady nailed it when he called the suspect a "worthless individual". That man doesn't use those words lightly or often. My prayers for the rest of the family
Absolutely love Sheriff Grady Judd. Such a sad situation. Prayers for the rest of the family and to all the 1st responders that had to see all that evil
I was close with him, since we were kids, we fell out during 9th grade, and i can't express how much i regret it. He was kind, smart, and so very silly, he was always there for me, even when i didn't deserve it, i regret my decisions, and now i cant fix them, im sorry stephen, may you rest in peace, you deserved so much better, long live stephen.
I’m so sorry bud 💕😢 May you heart be filled with only happy memories and no regrets, with Steven. It’s a tough time going from 8th to 9th (into high school) .. just know, it’s so, so, normal to branch off and meet new people. Not sure if you are religious but, if you are, it helps so much knowing that Steven is in an amazing place. He is safe and happy in heaven. God had a plan for your and Stevens friendship and it was supposed to happen exactly as it did. You can also take comfort in knowing that you WILL meet Steven again some day in heaven. I know how hard it is to loose someone tragically and the one and only way I was able to get through it was to lean on God. I wish you so much love and light.
light a candle and get still in a quiet space. then talk to steven as you would if he was sitting next to you. i promise you that he will hear you and you will feel his energy. close with a prayer for his soul to return to God. 💙💙💙
@davecfishing7907 Really? Why would you say something like that? Is negative attention the only attention you know how to get? That's more pathetic than ur comment, honestly. So here, take the attention that you crave and move along. To the oc, pls pay this troll no mind, I've given it the attention it oh so craves. Please don't ever blame yourself. You were a good friend and nothing could've prevented this. I'm sure Stephen knows your heart! Talk to him now. He can hear u!
How very sad this is. Hurts my soul so bad. He reminds me of my son. My son is also 16, going to high school but taking electrical classes at the community college part of his school day. Works at the pizza restaurant across from us in the evening and weekends to try to buy himself a car. To hear him describe that child and what a great kid he is and then what happened to him is heartbreaking. There’s not enough prison time in the world for what he did to his son.
Thank you, Sheriff Grady, for doing such a wonderful job with everything you have to do. Always handling the press with truthful, fair statements and not forgetting the victims. You are the best of the best. This Floridian appreciates you so much♥
@@PGB19D he keeps telling us how good he and his team are ("the best in the world" is a commonly used phrase - as if he'd know) so surely they'd be able to tell who is who in the zoo. Being American, he and his team are more likely to be the worst in the world.
What a piece of work that guy is. Why didn't he just stay away? That young man had a whole life. and he was aimed to do good thing. Anybody would have been proud to have him as a son. And this guy took him away for no reason how sad.😢
2 gruesome murders from 2 fathers within 2 months. Wtf is the world coming to? Hope this guy and the guy that shot his 3 sons get the death penalty. There is no room on this earth for monsters like them.
It's always been like this. The difference between now, and the past, is that we have the Internet now, and hear about every homicide that happens across the country.
SHERIFF GRADY JUDD is one of the most honest loved persons in Polk County FLA. The Police, DEA, First Responders and DEPUTIES on this force deserve just as much praise. Thank all of you for your service and support.
So So Sad and heartbreaking, this just breaks my heart. I'm so sorry for your loss, My Thoughts and Prayers are with the Family and Friends of Stephen. RIP Handsome young man 💐💐
Mr. Walkingdeadman, I live in central meth, heroin, and the rest in central CA, and I assure you that Propaganda is Not what's going on here. Trust & Believe.
Hi Sherriff Judd. I am Sending My Deepest Condolences to the Family of this Young Victim killed in an Absolutely Beyond Tragic and Heinous Homicide. Also extending My Thoughts and Prayers to All Impacted by this Tragic Event and to all of Your Law Enforcement Individuals impacted. God Bless 🙏🙏💔💔💙💙💙💙💙
There are many different types of rehabilitation programs. Not only for drugs and alcohol but for cardiac rehab, orthopedic rehab following hip, knee or other major surgery. Don’t assume she’s in rehab for substance abuse. This is tragic. There is nothing more to say.
With eldery, rehab usually refers to learing to walk again due to a serious bone break or stroke. They need a lot of support as their mobility is severly restricted, more physical support than an elderly spouse is capable of providing because they don't have the physical strength. Given that this is an older couple, the thought of 'drug' rehab never occurred to me. Context matters. And the elderly going through physical rehabilitation just call it "rehab."
Why would it even matter what kind of rehab she’s in? How does that change the situation? If the grandmother had a drug addiction, would you no longer consider this teen’s willingness to move in and help his grandfather any less noble or his murder any less tragic? Additionally, someone being in rehab trying to combat a drug addiction is just as valid as someone being in rehab for a knee replacement. It’s all healthcare to try to get better.
He's a preacher but personally not all of us believe in fairy tales. He does like the spotlight though. He stood by DeSantis side so that's all I need to know about people who you align with and DeSantis is full of hate banning books not condemning Nazis who are rampant in FLA. Crime is rampant in FLA trafficking drugs and humans but let's blame the gay community don't say gay, take women's autonomy, hate hate and more hate bc of their god says so.
A very sad story, just shows that pure evil doesn't just exist in strangers you've never met before. Sometimes it exists in your own home behind closed doors.
I wish every town across America had this man running their police department. He has such respect and honesty for the victim's family. Deepest condolences for the family.
This man turned killer deserves the death penalty that Florida has, period. No plea deals, no parole, no life sentence, no nothing: just the lethal injection is what he deserves. Poor kid, being so young only 16 year of age and as they said was a great young man and human being, lost his life at the hands of his own father. How evil is that! this individual is a monster, the devil in a human body who doesn’t deserve to breath the air he is breathing. His son didn’t get the opportunity to live his life fully….so, why this man’s life should be spared? Why? You Tell me, why??? The brain of this father was already “fried” doing so many damn drugs. No wonder he has had psychotic episodes; drugs will do that to the brain and more, and once your “brain” is not functioning at its whole capacity and it is damaged, things will break loose where an individual would do the unthinkable as long as he or she gets a “fix” or more drugs. Sad, it is so tragic and very sad. May this young man with a beautiful soul, Rest in Peace always. 🙏
Practically every person who does meth goes off on some type of violent rage. And just like when someone provides a gun to someone else that kills another, would be charged equally, the person who provided this guy with the meth should face the ssme penalty. Anyone that makes that stuff knows it ruins lives, so they should get life anyway.
Thank you once again Sheriff Judd for being who and what you Are and what you do. If only We The People could get it together and elect Sheriffs of your Caliber throughout this land.✝️
God Bless the family and prayers! Good job for catching him. Media why always at this time do you ask the dumbest question? How is the family doing? How do you think??!! 😢😢
Yeah they could of but decided it wasn't wortheir time and resources to hold this scumbag accountable! Whoever made that decision should be charged with something for not following the law and holding this criminal accountable!
No words can express the sorrow I feel for this precious loss. I’m sending love and strength for this kiddos love ones and his friends! What in the world is happening with heinous killings of children from parents??? Prayers for all! 🙏🏻🙏🏻💔💔

This is very sad and could have been averted if the state of South Carolina had extradited the father. So sad, so disgraceful. Sheriff Grady: Sir you and your deputies are exemplary. Prayers for this family. It is appropriate to view this murderer as a person who is dangerous to society. He is sick only in the sense that he is overcome by wickedness and is guided by demonic forces.
Sir, I am so sorry for the loss of your brother. My prayers are with you and your family. What an absolute disgusting tragedy this crime is. I hope this horrible man gets the death penalty. He killed his son with a Angle Grinder. That is horrific. Prayers for their family. Grady Judd is the greatest sheriff. I live in Seminole County Florida. I respect our Sheriff. Dennis Lemma. But, I love and Respect sheriff Grady Judd.
She's more than likely in rehabilitation for something physical. To assume it's drug rehab because of the son is so unfair to them. He spoke of how good that young man was and to assume that of his grandmother is just wrong.
His Grandma had nothin to do with the m-der. Her medical history or why she is in rehab should be her private life and kept confidential. People shouldn’t be toxic and critical of her because of this evil man. Basically, leave her alone.
I trust Sherrif Grady emphatically. He’s honest, caring and extremely intelligent. This was a horrific crime and May the conviction meet the crime. 😢❤🙏🏽
Sheriff Grady nailed it when he called the suspect a "worthless individual". That man doesn't use those words lightly or often. My prayers for the rest of the family
I am from North Carolina I worked for a while as a deputy and sheriffs like mr Judd is what we need across this nation
Agreed
Too bad there’s less and less LEO’s like sheriff Judd and more cops who work for the government and corporate elites and not the taxpayers
Across the world. His level of transparency and accountability are top notch
Police Chiefs too. All public servants deserve a Grady Judd.
Absolutely love Sheriff Grady Judd. Such a sad situation. Prayers for the rest of the family and to all the 1st responders that had to see all that evil

He "handles" the press because he loves to call press conferences. No normal sheriff gets off on being in the spotlight.

We need to stop awarding murderers and criminals with life in prison. Give them what they deserve. The only just sentence would be death!
Life imprisonment imo is a better punishment, than death. This way they can suffer alive, and constantly be reminded of why they are there.
