You're right. This is another reason why we're not to commit Fornication, God Almighty tells us that we're not to have sexual contact with a person who we're not Married to because it's a sin. It seems that this young woman's mother chose sex over Love and Marriage and it lead to her Daughters death.

I honestly think that the mother should be charged also because clearly she knew he was a pervert and she allowed him to stay in the house with her daughter! A parent is supposed to protect their children not put them in harms way!
I literally just posted the same thing. She’s despicable. That poor child didn’t stand a chance man. I’m sick of women making horrible decisions for themselves and their innocent children, when it comes to the pos that they date
@@mollysmith605absolutely! And soooooo many women are like this, finding their identity and self worth by being chosen, and making horrific decisions in the process. Terrifying indeed!
Shame she couldn't have lived with her father in the first place, if her mum knew what her addict boyfriend was like. Why move him in? Financial reasons? The mind boggles, be interesting to hear more from her side, explaining the situation.
"Her mother instincts told her something was wrong", her mother instincts didn't tell her to keep this creep away from her? She practically fer her daughter to the wolves.
I just got custody of my son because his mom thought it was ok to have a guy move in with them who was a convicted four time domestic violence felon, who is currently on parole. Pure stupidity.
Why did you leave her in the first place? Why didn’t you try and make it work and support her to be a better person? Why bring kids into the world with someone you are highly incompatible with? Why don’t adults ever consider the rights of the unborn.. ?
@@whitneyanders5945 I left her because she cheated on me and gave me an STD. Luckily, it wasn’t one that sticks around for life. I don’t know about you, but I’m wasn’t trying to make anything work out with a woman who didn’t respect me enough to not put my health in danger 🤷🏻♂️
Unlikely. Its just he was the obvious culprit. Granted, like many women, mom made a terrible judgment in who she brought into her childrens lives. Happens all the time.
@@yvonnedeboer7535 Should read most males on cocaine want to have sex all the time. As for women? Not so much. She might go along with it for his sake but honestly, it’s the farthest thing on a woman’s mind.
def sounds like the mom knew he was like this towards her daughter :( the fact that she didn’t check her room and said it’s for “privacy” but also said he may have sexually assaulted her was very telling. the mom doesn’t sit right with me either : (
well how she reacted in the chat to her bf it was the first time. i think it was just the first step of her realising that there are no other possible suspects
There are way too many "moms" who choose their disgusting bfs over their children. She looks like she is on drugs as well, in my opinion. She should be charged with neglect or something since she basically served her daughter to this monster on a silver platter.
This mother knew that he was sexually aggressive when he used drgs, and he was using every day, and yet she was ok with him living at the same house where her younger daughter lived. Eff such mothers.
Women like that are truly repulsive, male identified monsters who put they babies in harms way just to have a man. Mama animals don't even behave like this so infuriating 😢
I think any parent that allows an addict around their children should be charged with neglect. And if the children are harmed by the addict in any way then the parent should be charged as an accessory to whatever crime is committed and given the same sentence as the perpetrator.
@@InfamousFunksterBut that monster never even tried. The mother knew how he was. She's at fault too. Don't you try defending a murderer. Those who try to change, kudos to them. But that fiend and those that don't want and won't change don't deserve my sympathy
The dads statement was so well delivered, heartfelt and heartbreaking. As a father of a daughter, I could feel just a bit of his pain. I have tremendous empathy for him. The mom on the other hand…
@@meredithgrubb4497rage. Absolute, blinding, grieving rage. The mother took his kid, put her in a house with a sexually aggressive criminal and went to work two jobs. Leaving her alone with him 20 hours per day. The dad will be consumed with rage believe me.
These channels don’t care. They retell the story that’s been told 5036393 times a sensationally as possible for views. You can tell by the focus on the clothing. The better channels focus on the loss of life but these guys chose to dwell on that. That speaks volumes.
@@meredithgrubb4497worst fear as a young man. When I have children of my own, keeping consideration of these situations are a must. I know there’s only so much you can do in the moment and that’s what scares me. Man…
I feel so bad for the father. He had absolutely no control over his daughter's safety. As a father of a little girl myself, I can't imagine the pain he is experiencing.
I agree, I am married to a mother of 3, but I do everything possible to keep her ex husbands kids safe. I feel its my duty, we have a great relationship, but I always push on them to keep in contact with their Dad. There Dad and I are very different, I am very open about life and have fun, where dad is more conservative and dull. They prefer me, but I never let this be a detriment to the relationship with Dad. I stick up for him when they dont want to call or visit, I make them keep the relationship. There are good step dads out there, its upto Mom to do the background work before she brings a possible monster into the house.
@@donkique956 I'm really sorry. No one should have that happen to them. I'm staring at my 5 year old coloring as I type this and my eyes well up for you.
The mother looked so suspicious... to begin with she was definitely an addict herself. To knowingly allow a male addict in your home with your teen kids is criminal. She should be charged.
(I was friends with Riley and I also lived in the same town as her I still do) They never charged Chantel because her mother was the magistrate at the time, and fun fact about her mother’s husband he is one of the biggest heroin dealers in this town, and anyone who gets drug charges in this town and she knows that they bought the drugs off of her husband they get away with a slap on the wrist. They even tore down the house WAY before the investigation on Riley was closed. CHANTEL IS NOT INNOCENT THEY ARE HIDING SOMETHING!!! But that’s how it goes Andy had zero connections, Chantel had her connections to preserve her “innocence”. But they both did it I know in my heart they did and the grandmother knew about it.
She definitely should be. She should at least be tried. She had to have known stuff was going on and she knew how sexually aggressive he was and that he was on dope. It’s absolutely insane to imagine a mother being that irresponsible and not having to answer for it
@@karenbrooks2116 Yes, it does not bear thinking about it. Poor Riley knew he was evil and felt unsafe. If only her boyfriend had stayed online and could have maybe been a witness of sorts to Mr evil entering her bedroom.
Mom’s first response after seeing the texts Riley sent to her boyfriend was basically “maybe he went in there to molest her.” Wtaf. Why would you have someone like that anywhere near your children?? Shame on her.
@@thepaynebro2377 too true, my mom still makes fun of my natural hair color to this day, I've learned to just ignore her ( I could so easily bring up her greying roots lololollllllll but I'm a nice btch I guess)
Narrator says the mother's instinct kicked in and she knew something was wrong. But her mother's instinct didn't kick in when dating a drug addict or when his interest in her daughter was present.
Yeah, the father is probably a lot better. You know, being the womans FIRST choice. The truth is, he probably ain't much better. Women who have a history of choosing the wrong man, usually die alone because they always chose the wrong man.
@@mandarina4157 in the USA it would be sexist to hold women as accountable as others. It's simple math really, nothing complicated. If it was complicated my simple brain wouldn't have been able to do it. We make men accountable, we give women excuses and plausible deniability with people they have sex with. We don't offer that both ways. Men are 100% expected to know everything about a woman and any bad qualities she has is a direct reflection of him. When it's the other way? He's a narcissist, and she's a poor poor victim.
I don't understand these kinds of moms who are bringing home men who are addicted to drugs or alcoholic and they have at home still underage children, especially daughters.
@adrianneleslie8501 No excuse! My mother was a single parent with 2 children, and she focused all attention on our education. She never brought home another man after my father passed away when I was 10 and my brother 9 yrs old. If you want a man in your life when your children are still underage and live with you, then bring home a man without addiction or pay attention to his behavior towards your children.
When are people going to put their children before their fcked up relationships!? It is despicable that so often it is the boyfriend, the girlfriend, the stepmother or the stepfather that are committing these heinous crimes against people’s children. And yet again and again people put their love lives ahead of their own children’s safety and well-being. Absolutely disgusting. This young woman was beautiful and had her whole life ahead of her. Rest in peace Riley.
Preach! It’s disgusting and selfish. One of the things about drug addicts that doesn’t get brought up enough is the shady/dangerous people that you inevitably invite into your home and around your children. Source : former meth and opiate addict; clean 8 years
When I was in high school, i dated a girl who's mom was married to a man who was convicted of sexual abuse of a minor. He was controlling, abusive, and creepy as hell. Always commenting on my GF's body, taking pics of her just chilling around the house, etc. We found out he was a sex offender not because he told them, but because we were trolling a website that showed a map of all sex offenders in the area. This immediately made all of his weird remarks and actions towards my gf make sense. Even after figuring this out, she refused to leave him because she didn't want to get a job and support herself. Even after she took all of her stuff and left them in the middle of the night to permanently move in with her dad, her mom refused to leave this guy. Some moms don't deserve to have children. Pathetic, self-centered assholes.
Reading your story took me back to my first girlfriend who I met at age 16,she was 15.. The first time I met her parents who had adopted her, I thought her dad was being a little too playful with her. .Not to say dads can't hung and play with their children, I raised three girls, but this was a 15 year old child in a women's body and he was being way too aggressive. Fast forward 50 years and I see the obituary of her mother. As I'm reading the names of her brothers and sisters,etc I notice she isn't listed. Though she never confided in me he may have sexually abused her and when she finally spoke out about ,it likely caused the family to blame each other. She in turn was omitted from the list of family members.. I do hope I'm wrong as she was a beautiful soul, but can't see any other reason as to why she wasn't listed as her loving daughter. As a side note her adopted mom did care and loved her,but as you know love can be blind, especially 50 plus years ago when sexual pretenders were pretty much free to roam. I do hope she didn't blame herself if in fact she was abused.
No she won't. It is obvious that she will turn it all around to "poor little me - what could I do?" Obviously totally desperate to have a man around, even if he is scum to start with. She looks like she is on drugs as well.
@@BrundiRooch It also seems he didn't let dangerous addict pedos near his children. He definitely didn't show addict signs like her mother. That alone should've barred her from any custody
I live right near here my husband participated in the search for her. Everyone thought the mom should have been charged as well. It is heartbreaking what happened to riley. The road they found her body off of was a mountain road with a steep drop off he threw her off of it like trash. He was the trash that needed taking out.
That’s unbelievably sad. However, thank your husband for us… What a good man to be out there searching for this girl, in those first days when we thought there was a chance of finding her. ❤ That’s an amazingly selfless thing to do. We would all want the community to come together and search for our loved-ones too, if they were missing. It’s so wonderful he gave his time to do it, knowing he could possibly stumble across something horrific. 💔🙏
I think the mother should’ve been charged as well. She basically served her daughter up on a platter to him! She knew he was sexually aggressive, on drugs, and left him and her unobserved in that house. SMH 🤦🏻♀️ Unbelievable
That doesn’t really matter I was a drug addict and they run out quick and if I had a work truck and didn’t have transportation at home I’m scoring during work facts do that doesn’t prove anything but all the evidence does
Love seeing people not letting the mom off the hook. She came to the conclusion “oh he might have gone in there to assault her” conclusion way too fast and nonchalantly. You’re a mother.. those kids are your first priority, not whats going on in your bed or because you feel lonely. If there is ANY red flag that someone might do something to your kids, and you still let them around them, you should also feel guilty as sin.. Your own selfishness got your daughter assaulted and murdered.
Im a father and its so bad here with mothers like her im the one called paranoid because I wont tolerate ANY sort of disrespect from a woman or claim i am too serious Yet i haven't brought any drama around my children and they haven't met nor know any ex girlfriends ive had and never will I don't play whenever it comes to my children or my life I don't need a girlfriend like that Being a man crazy single mom is recipe for disaster
Exactly! @thepubknight6144 kids always come first no matter what and too many put their own selfish desires above the kids. If you're that desperate for action have a /a few fwb/s that you visit or similar, don't involve your kids unless you are 100% confident and committed to the other person and stay alert. Any decent step parent would understand that.
This mother is as responsible for her daughter's murder, as the boyfriend who took her life. She knew he was a danger, and let him have unfettered access to her daughter.
@@sweetsummerrain8086 are you kidding or just plain dumb? The father was miles away and the mother had court custody. Blame the court who just gives kids to a drug addict mother because she's female.
Mother has chronic, long term drug addict living in same house and with unfettered access to her 15 yo daughter? She should be charged with second degree murder.
Involuntary Manslaughter is unfortunately the most heinous crime she likely could be charged with. Not sure what type of sentence is typically given for IM in West Virginia, but it usually is only like 1-3 years in most states (if the defendant is convicted). I hate that this would most likely be the charge if the Mom is charged at all, but there’s no proof she had prior knowledge her husband was planning this particular crime, she played no direct role in helping to facilitate her husband’s crime, and she had no knowledge of his crime after it was committed and tried to protect him by lying to the cops about whether she thought he could’ve committed the crime. She, in fact, straight up told the cops he became sexually aggressive with HER in their marriage when he got high, and didn’t try to paint him as this wonderful husband or stepdad. So, the state would only be able to prove that she knew of his previous rap sheet and in spite of that rap sheet, she still allowed him to move in to her home and be around her kids 24/7, particularly her vulnerable 15-year old daughter, thereby increasing the probability that her children might be subjected to violence perpetrated by him and made their lives significantly less safe by doing so. My guess is the state won’t charge her, given that the state got “a life sentence with no mercy” conviction on her ex-husband.
Out of all these True Crime channels I watch regularly you’re the first one to pay your respects to the victim before you begin the story. Much respect.
I handled a call where a mother met a man at the Greyhound Bus Station and allowed him to stay in her home the same day. Her son walked to the restroom and opened his 12-year-old sister’s door to find a stranger on top of her. It's important for friends and relatives to monitor the choices of mothers with mental wellness issues to protect their children.
Alot of women are weak like this. They think everyone is nice like them. When the truth is. Man is evil. We are a terrible evil species and you need to be very careful.
If you are a mother and have daughters any man you bring into the home is a risk. Its sickening how many woman will put their needs before their childrens.
@@Lizzie-h3j she never said that. She said she cannot feel any sympathy and neither can I. I believe this mother should have been charged with child endangerment. You being so triggered makes me wonder if you are also living with a violent druggie with your kids.
@@nazeemsultan1038 there is no hell or heaven it was all made up to control the Arabs who would not comply with anything but the unknown and now, thousands of years later, they are STILL trying to control our minds.
That mother should do jail time!! She knew he was, as she put it, "sexually aggressive when he did drugs" and suspected the he may have went into her room to abuse her. Knowing he was like that, and letting him in the house with your children, needs more punishment
If we really want to call things what they are, "aggressive" is not synonymous with "assault", and "sexually aggressive" is not "rapist". First of all, grammatically it's simply wrong; one is an adjective which makes impossible for it to be the same as a noun. 2. Not all rape or sexual assault involves aggression or violence. In fact, the narrative that rape must be violent or involve aggression is such a pervasive misconception, that victims don't go to the police because their rapist wasn't violent or forceful. Aggression is a behavior. Sexual assault or rape is an act. There is no objective standard as to what is "sexually aggressive"; it can mean as little as a guy who's heavy handed when he flirts, to a woman who pursues men, to a dog who humps legs, to rough sex, to just having a high libido. It's very broad in what it can mean. Sexual assault and rape have the definitive and absolute standard of consent. There's the line, whatever happens on this side, regardless of sexually aggressive behavior or not, if both parties have agreed to it is not rape. On that other side, where things happen against the will of of others, regardless of sexually aggressive behavior or not, it is rape. So next time you think you know what you're talking about, maybe make sure before you say something dumb.
They should start so Mothers stop treating their children like annoying accessories while bringing random men around free to do whatever. There have been way too many cases like this lately (and that's only the ones we hear of)
@@helpis0ntheway I think with that - not in this case, as this is a loving father, but often - it also goes hand in hand with some fathers subsequently completely abandoning children after a relationship breaks down. The mother ends up with the entire responsibility both financially and emotionally whilst the father waltzes off into the sunset never to be seen again, free to create a new life also without the "burden" of his children.. If that absence is then coupled with a mother at the bottom end of the scale in terms of parenting skills, and without much in the way of care for various reasons, then you can get a situation where the mother doesn't - or doesn't want to - cope and the children are in her way. Were the father present, he could share the responsibility or take the children on himself rather than leave them in a bad situation. So I'd suggest in a lot of cases where that happens, it's both sides that bear responsibility for that scenario existing.
How was this "mom" not charged with child endangerment?? It seems like she knew her daughter was probably being SAed by this dude and did nothing about it. She is just as much guilty. She put her child in that position.
The fact she FaceTimed the boyfriend but never called or texted the mom is heartbreaking. It’s like she knew she wouldn’t help her but was praying her boyfriend could
@@azazello1784 And you're super "edgy" with your demonic name, yes? You have to be honest, people will question someone with a name like that, especially if they're trying to make moral statements and arguments. There was nothing "wannabe tough" about my comment, but there sure is try hard in your screen name.
It's crazy how many people in the comments here are calling people saying that "misogynistic" and being more mad about that, than the shitty mothers who continue to let shitty predator men around their kids
I went to high school from 1999 to 2003, and even back then, almost all of my friends lived with their mom and "stepdad," and ALL of the "stepdads" were equally despised. I only knew TWO other kids whose parents were still together...my adopted friend, and my best friend (but she hated her bio dad, too. He died while we were still in high school, and she still lives with her mom at 40 years old! Her mom never dated or got remarried!)
Strangely, almost all of the "stepdads" qualified as "four letters words"...they had names like John, Hank, Carl, Rick, Jack, Alex, ect. 😂 I was reminded of that with "Andy" in this case! Just another four letter word.
It's sickening! As a parent you have 1 job above all others & that's to PROTECT your children. She chose herself & drugs & knew the risks were high but didn't do ANYTHING to prevent it. She had so many ways of preventing it & it started with her getting involved with him enough to let him move in. Drugs were doing the thinking, not a Mom. She LET it happen.
As others have said in the comments, mothers are supposed to care for their children. Not put them in harms way. RIP Riley. Thank you Beyond Evil Podcast 💠
Imagine bringing a man into your home who kills your child.. i couldnt forgive myself.. what a sad story and poor judgement. R.I.P to this young lady . Truly sad
I wouldn't be able to either, especially since my oldest died of fentanyl poisoning almost 2 years ago, she was 27 and everyday I debate whether I had a hand in it, enabling, did I spoil her too much, was I too hard on her? Or not enough? Everyday, God bless 👍
@@patriciacook3981so sorry about your child, but kids tend to make their own decisions at the end of the day. Never blame yourself for not "seeing the signs" or doing too much or too little. Your child would never want you to blame yourself❤
Happens all day everyday… she was a loser, lonely and pervive woman, take as old as time… mom needed a companion even if it meant dating an addict rapist…
Exactly.. my son never met anyone I was dating or his mother was dating, our priority was him even tho we're divorced, you can't emotionally and physically be there for your children while getting to know someone else in any meaningful way, Brady Bunch was fiction
I don’t usually mom shame anyone but that woman is a SAH, she brought a sexually aggressive drug addict into her daughters home. She should be charged for child endangerment.
Why some women cannót stay without men in their lives, is beyond me!!! Your children are supposed to be your first priority!!! Shame on that mother!! 😡😡😡😡
Well sure but at the same time we all know how single mothers struggle to raise kids on their own, and that a positive male role model is ideal. Women could just do better about picking them, cuz often you see chicks with obvious douchebags. If only we'd start enforcing the golden rule on rapists then maybe these modern cavemen would think again.
The second my son was born, I stopped dating and I've stayed single for almost 8 years now. I have no desire to risk bringing a strange new man around him. My mom and dad divorced when I was five and they both brought abusive stepparents into my life. I promised myself I would never do that to my children. I hope her mom feels responsible, she failed to protect her children from that monster. This is so heartbreaking.
Your son is blessed! Even when he gives you a ulcer when he reaches his teens lol I love to hear stories like yours...my mom put a man before me and it certainly affected me
LMAO probably was more along the lines of nobody wanted to be part of that UGLY CRAZY single mother lifestyle and not you actively deciding to stay without a partner to help with the bills and child HAHAHA
The mother knew the killer drug addict BF is a sex offender, yet she allowed this monster into her home, to assault her own daughter. For what? In exchange for supplying her with drugs?
When did they say he was a sex offender? The video stated he was that he was sexually aggressive when he used drugs. The mother failed her child in so many ways.
Many such cases unfortunately. No accountability for these sort of people means it'll always happen. They need to be held accountable for letting these people into their homes.
Those texts to her boyfriend saying her stepdad had entered her room gives me chills. That is so sad. I can’t imagine the fear and helplessness that was felt in those moments.
As a guy that was talking to a female that was molested (she told me she wasn’t penetrated) it’s nothing but pain. As a man you protect your woman and to let that damage happen to her while you weren’t available and you can’t get revenge literally degrades you as a man. In a way it feels as if you were assaulted too and you also become extremely defensive for the person and hurt. The dynamic changes because you feel like you can’t trust the people she’s around. Constantly worrying about her when you’re not with her.
The fact she FaceTimed the boyfriend but never called or texted the mom is heartbreaking. It’s like she knew she wouldn’t help her but was praying her boyfriend could
@@Dcll8451I get what you’re trying to say but some of what you’re saying is a little harmful to victims of assault, like there’s no need to specify there wasn’t penetration because we simply don’t need those details and it feels like saying “it wasn’t that bad” or “not as bad as it could have been.” But regardless of intention it simply isn’t necessary and is a little disrespectful to the victim. Also saying it feels you were assaulted too feels like taking the attention off the victim and putting yourself in their position when there is nothing like actually being the victim. Obviously others can grieve and feel that pain as well, but make sure you don’t tell an actual victim that their assault makes you feel like you’ve been assaulted too, because as a victim myself if my boyfriend told me that I would feel quite hurt and invalidated. You can feel hurt and ashamed and whatever else, but don’t tell the victim you felt like you were assaulted too.
@@MrMuaythai84 because a cheap lock on a door isn't going to stop a monster that is determined to get into the room. Bedroom doors that have locks are usually cheaply made and can be bypassed quickly and easily with a credit card, jiggling the door handle just right or even just turning the knob and pushing the door hard enough. Plus, and I say this from experience, if you lock or barricade the door it usually makes the monster angry which makes what they do to you 100x worse.
The mom automatically jumping to the thought that he could’ve attempted to sexually assault her tells me that she either knew he was capable of it or that he had attempted before. She miserably failed her daughter and should be looked into for the safety of her other children.
My heart breaks for her dad! What a great, impactful victims statement 💔🙏💔 One of the BEST victims statement I’ve heard! He doesn’t deserve to be “looked at in 15 years!” So what if he shows “Good behavior” while in prison!!!!!!😡 He sure as hell did NOT show Good behavior while free!!!!
@@wvmom2727 a lot of us had single moms who worked ALOT. Work is never an excuse for having a drug addicted predator in the house. Even the drug addicted part is enough for me to never let my children alone with them. 👍🏽
Exactly! I'd like to know what the Mom knew leading up to this for her to have an idea of why, how or what exactly happened. She immediately came up with motive, so what did she know? That part is the worst bc she could've prevented this had she kicked him out. She even mentioned how he got "sexually violent" toward HER, when using cocaine. Excuse me? & You don't immediately get a restraining order on him if he was acting in such a way? I absolutely blame the mother for him having complete access to her daughter & children. People need to stop disregarding such serious red flags, or any at all! I wonder how much the Mom regrets not having done something. I imagine she saw him acting weird toward Riley, looking/speaking to her inappropriately. Did anything happen leading up to this where she knew to fear him? Likely YES. I can't believe they didn't look into the mother more knowing she definitely knew more & no you don't let some drug addict with a criminal record around your kids, none the less MOVE IN. Also makes you wonder since she obviously knew he used cocaine, if the Mom was partying or had a bit of a habit, herself. I just can't look at this case & not blame the Mom for putting her children in harms way, even if she never thought he would harm the daughter. People are unpredictable & she knew better!
@@CAHSR2020 Absolutely. Mothers and women partners also harm and kill their children. Domestic (or other) violence is a violence issue, not sex (mis-named 'gender'*) issue. The courts skew the incidence of this because they give mothers full residence in most cases without qualification. *'gender' is a grammatical term which is traditionally defined by linguistic heritage, an example being 'le' and 'la' in French. 'Gender' allocation varies according to language. It is culturally set linguistically. It can be varied by 'breaking' the cultural norms with futile results other than confusion. 'sex' refers to the presentation as a male or female phenotype at birth. 'sex' is physiologically determined, and cannot be changed. Caveat: "Disorder of sexual development (DSD) is a rare disorder with an incidence of 1:4500 to 1:5000 (journals.lww.com/cur/Fulltext/9900/True_hermaphroditism__A_nightmare_for_an_adult.113.aspx) There is no rational compatibility between 'gender' and 'sex' other than political pressures imo. They are different words indicating totally independent phenomena.
This makes me cry. That poor baby. I have a 17yr old daughter and I couldn't imagine losing her. It really matters so much who you allow in your home. Especially when you have children
That jury was amazing. Twenty minutes for the guilty verdict?! They legit went into that deliberation room, sat down, looked at each other and went “Yup, we’re done here.” 👏
As a single mother who got unexpectedly pregnant at 18 and had to do everything alone since day 1... i have a beautiful now 18 year old son - i can assure you that "respecting privacy" by not checking ifyour child is in bed before going to sleep is absolute nonsense. I will always knock the door and say his name, with no response I will make sure with my own eyes i see he is in his bed and if he is oke. This is daily i dont miss 1 day not a morning not an evening to check this. Yes maybe he will say: dont disturb me or maybe sometimes he will be upset for 2 seconds...so? I check on my child cause he is my child and he lives with me under my responsibility. Also at 18 years old. Imagien a daughter that young... its very very very irrisponsible if the mom.
Same here! My son might get irritated because sometimes I wake him up or something but I don’t care! I NEED to know that he’s ok because I’m not ok unless he’s ok.
This is why i never dated after my sons father passed when he was 2. Hes 18 now. The mother shoukd be charged too. She thought about herself the entire time. Pathetic
Yeah but than people bully single moms saying it's selfish of them to raise a kid alone and a father is important which why a lot these women invite ANY MEN. Into their life smh
Not always, I moved in with my GF, now wife, with her 3 kids ( 4, 8, 10). I also brought 1 kid to the party(14). We dated a while before we met each others kids. Its a culture thing, look at the Mom, she is a mess and wilfully endangered her daughter. If I was in anyway near drugs or had a record my now wife would of stopped the relationship. This Mom did not. Its all on her. You can tell the type immediately, the ones who are proud to be working multiple low income jobs.
There are so many grown up children now telling what they suffered at the hands of men their mothers brought into their homes! And it is amazing how many knew or suspected what was going on and turned a blind eye.
Riley's mother should be charged with child neglect and endangerment! You let a drug addict with a long criminal history move in and she even told the police he could be sexually aggressive when high? So you leave him there with your children alone? That's neglect!
McCauley was my next door neighbor for close to 20 years. He made our lives a living hell - he was reported to LEO many times and nothing was ever done. My late husband was a disabled veteran and it got so bad that he had to carry a weapon on his wheelchair anytime he was out of the house.

@@janiefox3458 who ever told you that was wrong, the mom openly admitted that he was a druggie that got sexually aggressive while high...and he was always high. Mom of the year candidate.
@@CAHSR2020you do have a point. The court system gets it wrong a lot. The most harmful parent gets primary custody without regard for the children's safety. But that will never change unless judges and lawyers start listening to who the kids want to live with.
Wtf is wrong with that poor girls mother?! She knew he was sexually aggressive yet allowed her child to be around this pos. I will never understand.
This is common. A child is 60x more likely to be subjected to abus3 by moms new bf/husband.
You're right. This is another reason why we're not to commit Fornication, God Almighty tells us that we're not to have sexual contact with a person who we're not Married to because it's a sin.

They were both dopers. What did you expect?
I honestly think that the mother should be charged also because clearly she knew he was a pervert and she allowed him to stay in the house with her daughter! A parent is supposed to protect their children not put them in harms way!
She had sons aswell. Perverts shouldn't be around any child female or male.

I think any parent that allows an addict around their children should be charged with neglect. And if the children are harmed by the addict in any way then the parent should be charged as an accessory to whatever crime is committed and given the same sentence as the perpetrator.

I agree. She should be in prison. You know he’s a predator and you let him around your kids. Shame on her. That poor girl.
(I was friends with Riley and I also lived in the same town as her I still do) They never charged Chantel because her mother was the magistrate at the time, and fun fact about her mother’s husband he is one of the biggest heroin dealers in this town, and anyone who gets drug charges in this town and she knows that they bought the drugs off of her husband they get away with a slap on the wrist. They even tore down the house WAY before the investigation on Riley was closed. CHANTEL IS NOT INNOCENT THEY ARE HIDING SOMETHING!!! But that’s how it goes Andy had zero connections, Chantel had her connections to preserve her “innocence”. But they both did it I know in my heart they did and the grandmother knew about it.
She definitely should be. She should at least be tried. She had to have known stuff was going on and she knew how sexually aggressive he was and that he was on dope. It’s absolutely insane to imagine a mother being that irresponsible and not having to answer for it

Do not bring strangers in to your home when you have vulnerable children. Why don't people understand this?
I hope the father got custody of his sons. The mother CLEARLY has terrible judgement and a possible drug addiction herself.
Definitely. From my personal experience as an ex addict that’s my opinion. Terrible choices.

When I was in high school, i dated a girl who's mom was married to a man who was convicted of sexual abuse of a minor. He was controlling, abusive, and creepy as hell. Always commenting on my GF's body, taking pics of her just chilling around the house, etc. We found out he was a sex offender not because he told them, but because we were trolling a website that showed a map of all sex offenders in the area. This immediately made all of his weird remarks and actions towards my gf make sense. Even after figuring this out, she refused to leave him because she didn't want to get a job and support herself. Even after she took all of her stuff and left them in the middle of the night to permanently move in with her dad, her mom refused to leave this guy.
Some moms don't deserve to have children. Pathetic, self-centered assholes.
This dude was tweeking on bodycam.
Most moms nowadays
Reading your story took me back to my first girlfriend who I met at age 16,she was 15.. The first time I met her parents who had adopted her, I thought her dad was being a little too playful with her. .Not to say dads can't hung and play with their children, I raised three girls, but this was a 15 year old child in a women's body and he was being way too aggressive. Fast forward 50 years and I see the obituary of her mother. As I'm reading the names of her brothers and sisters,etc I notice she isn't listed. Though she never confided in me he may have sexually abused her and when she finally spoke out about ,it likely caused the family to blame each other. She in turn was omitted from the list of family members.. I do hope I'm wrong as she was a beautiful soul, but can't see any other reason as to why she wasn't listed as her loving daughter. As a side note her adopted mom did care and loved her,but as you know love can be blind, especially 50 plus years ago when sexual pretenders were pretty much free to roam. I do hope she didn't blame herself if in fact she was abused.
That had to be some sort of violation for him to be living with children.
Sad. Some mothers rather have the comfort of a man in their bed rather than the safety of their children. SMH

Child endangerment at the least

Involuntary Manslaughter is unfortunately the most heinous crime she likely could be charged with. Not sure what type of sentence is typically given for IM in West Virginia, but it usually is only like 1-3 years in most states (if the defendant is convicted). I hate that this would most likely be the charge if the Mom is charged at all, but there’s no proof she had prior knowledge her husband was planning this particular crime, she played no direct role in helping to facilitate her husband’s crime, and she had no knowledge of his crime after it was committed and tried to protect him by lying to the cops about whether she thought he could’ve committed the crime. She, in fact, straight up told the cops he became sexually aggressive with HER in their marriage when he got high, and didn’t try to paint him as this wonderful husband or stepdad. So, the state would only be able to prove that she knew of his previous rap sheet and in spite of that rap sheet, she still allowed him to move in to her home and be around her kids 24/7, particularly her vulnerable 15-year old daughter, thereby increasing the probability that her children might be subjected to violence perpetrated by him and made their lives significantly less safe by doing so. My guess is the state won’t charge her, given that the state got “a life sentence with no mercy” conviction on her ex-husband.
Out of all these True Crime channels I watch regularly you’re the first one to pay your respects to the victim before you begin the story. Much respect.

I handled a call where a mother met a man at the Greyhound Bus Station and allowed him to stay in her home the same day.

@@ItsNeverAManequinDad lived about 25 miles away.
Why are all the comments blaming her and not him?
If we really want to call things what they are, "aggressive" is not synonymous with "assault", and "sexually aggressive" is not "rapist". First of all, grammatically it's simply wrong; one is an adjective which makes impossible for it to be the same as a noun.
2. Not all rape or sexual assault involves aggression or violence. In fact, the narrative that rape must be violent or involve aggression is such a pervasive misconception, that victims don't go to the police because their rapist wasn't violent or forceful.
Aggression is a behavior. Sexual assault or rape is an act. There is no objective standard as to what is "sexually aggressive"; it can mean as little as a guy who's heavy handed when he flirts, to a woman who pursues men, to a dog who humps legs, to rough sex, to just having a high libido. It's very broad in what it can mean. Sexual assault and rape have the definitive and absolute standard of consent. There's the line, whatever happens on this side, regardless of sexually aggressive behavior or not, if both parties have agreed to it is not rape. On that other side, where things happen against the will of of others, regardless of sexually aggressive behavior or not, it is rape.
So next time you think you know what you're talking about, maybe make sure before you say something dumb.

If that absence is then coupled with a mother at the bottom end of the scale in terms of parenting skills, and without much in the way of care for various reasons, then you can get a situation where the mother doesn't - or doesn't want to - cope and the children are in her way. Were the father present, he could share the responsibility or take the children on himself rather than leave them in a bad situation. So I'd suggest in a lot of cases where that happens, it's both sides that bear responsibility for that scenario existing.
How was this "mom" not charged with child endangerment?? It seems like she knew her daughter was probably being SAed by this dude and did nothing about it. She is just as much guilty. She put her child in that position.
Right?! They need to start charging the mothers in these cases with child neglect/endangerment!
It’s so frustrating when the bio parent isn’t held accountable for giving these monsters unfettered access to these children
Ohhh papa bear. I feel your pain and your words brought tears to my eyes. I am sorry for your loss
The fact she FaceTimed the boyfriend but never called or texted the mom is heartbreaking. It’s like she knew she wouldn’t help her but was praying her boyfriend could
Why the heck she had a boyfriend at 15???
Of course teenagers date!!!
@@azazello1784I dont think youre in a moral position to question it when you have a demonic name for your youtube handle.

@@azazello1784 And you're super "edgy" with your demonic name, yes? You have to be honest, people will question someone with a name like that, especially if they're trying to make moral statements and arguments. There was nothing "wannabe tough" about my comment, but there sure is try hard in your screen name.
too many girls being abused andmurdered by mom's boyfriend
It's crazy how many people in the comments here are calling people saying that "misogynistic" and being more mad about that, than the shitty mothers who continue to let shitty predator men around their kids
Because Mom cares more about her filthy lust than her own child🤬
I went to high school from 1999 to 2003, and even back then, almost all of my friends lived with their mom and "stepdad," and ALL of the "stepdads" were equally despised. I only knew TWO other kids whose parents were still together...my adopted friend, and my best friend (but she hated her bio dad, too. He died while we were still in high school, and she still lives with her mom at 40 years old! Her mom never dated or got remarried!)
Strangely, almost all of the "stepdads" qualified as "four letters words"...they had names like John, Hank, Carl, Rick, Jack, Alex, ect. 😂
I was reminded of that with "Andy" in this case! Just another four letter word.
It's sickening! As a parent you have 1 job above all others & that's to PROTECT your children. She chose herself & drugs & knew the risks were high but didn't do ANYTHING to prevent it. She had so many ways of preventing it & it started with her getting involved with him enough to let him move in. Drugs were doing the thinking, not a Mom. She LET it happen.
As others have said in the comments, mothers are supposed to care for their children. Not put them in harms way. RIP Riley. Thank you Beyond Evil Podcast 💠
That mother needs to be charged with neglect as she let this guy slide with so much concerning history in general. That poor girl was set up to fail 😔
Imagine bringing a man into your home who kills your child.. i couldnt forgive myself.. what a sad story and poor judgement. R.I.P to this young lady . Truly sad
I wouldn't be able to either, especially since my oldest died of fentanyl poisoning almost 2 years ago, she was 27 and everyday I debate whether I had a hand in it, enabling, did I spoil her too much, was I too hard on her? Or not enough? Everyday, God bless 👍
Not looking for sympathy just saying when you experience it, your exactly right, it's already terribly sad, the consequences would be ENORMOUS
@patriciacook3981 God bless you and you're family.. there's so much you can do to help someone don't be too hard on yourself
Patricia...you love your daughter...she loves you and we do what's best at the time...never to hurt our kids...🙏❤
@@patriciacook3981so sorry about your child, but kids tend to make their own decisions at the end of the day. Never blame yourself for not "seeing the signs" or doing too much or too little. Your child would never want you to blame yourself❤
How in the world do you prioritize a boyfriend above your daughter?
Exactly!
Happens all day everyday… she was a loser, lonely and pervive woman, take as old as time… mom needed a companion even if it meant dating an addict rapist…
Selfish and nasty "woman".
Don't have kids if you don't want to love and protect them.
Women are mostly extremely selfish
Exactly.. my son never met anyone I was dating or his mother was dating, our priority was him even tho we're divorced, you can't emotionally and physically be there for your children while getting to know someone else in any meaningful way, Brady Bunch was fiction
I don’t usually mom shame anyone but that woman is a SAH, she brought a sexually aggressive drug addict into her daughters home. She should be charged for child endangerment.
She's a Subarachnoid hemorrhage?
I was surprised by how emotional the dad made me when I listened to him, wish the mom also went to prison with her lover for the poor daughter
Why some women cannót stay without men in their lives, is beyond me!!! Your children are supposed to be your first priority!!! Shame on that mother!! 😡😡😡😡
I agree
Well sure but at the same time we all know how single mothers struggle to raise kids on their own, and that a positive male role model is ideal. Women could just do better about picking them, cuz often you see chicks with obvious douchebags.
If only we'd start enforcing the golden rule on rapists then maybe these modern cavemen would think again.
That is just a female.
Not a woman.
Mom & Step-Dad should both be in prison! This story is so very sad.
The second my son was born, I stopped dating and I've stayed single for almost 8 years now. I have no desire to risk bringing a strange new man around him. My mom and dad divorced when I was five and they both brought abusive stepparents into my life. I promised myself I would never do that to my children. I hope her mom feels responsible, she failed to protect her children from that monster. This is so heartbreaking.
Your son is blessed! Even when he gives you a ulcer when he reaches his teens lol
I love to hear stories like yours...my mom put a man before me and it certainly affected me
No dating? How do you feed your desires? Mechanical bf?
@@Saymyname-zj2ml IJBOL not everyone brain is in their groin like you
LMAO probably was more along the lines of nobody wanted to be part of that UGLY CRAZY single mother lifestyle and not you actively deciding to stay without a partner to help with the bills and child HAHAHA
@@June-tb4vionce you have a child, you are no longer #1.. that position belongs to your child..
Why isn't Mom in jail too? She knew he was dangerous and gave him unfettered access to her kids
The mother knew the killer drug addict BF is a sex offender, yet she allowed this monster into her home, to assault her own daughter.
For what? In exchange for supplying her with drugs?
Exactly my thoughts
When did they say he was a sex offender? The video stated he was that he was sexually aggressive when he used drugs. The mother failed her child in so many ways.
Yes, likely her BF was her drug connection.
Yup … that’s basically it … and it is happening very day sadly
Knowing he was a drug addict,and that she knew about his behaviour she let him live with her .unbelievable.
From the looks of it she definitely partaked
Many such cases unfortunately. No accountability for these sort of people means it'll always happen. They need to be held accountable for letting these people into their homes.
The mothers face has obvious signs of drug hyper aging ... he wasn't the only addict in that house.
Oh definitely
Sleeping during the day and grandma involved is all I needed to hear
Truth
Which is exactly the reason she had him move in.
Said the same within 2 seconds of looking at her
I've been binge watching a bunch of these and it appears women are doing a bang up job choosing men to bring into their lives.
Those texts to her boyfriend saying her stepdad had entered her room gives me chills. That is so sad. I can’t imagine the fear and helplessness that was felt in those moments.
Or the guilt the teenaged boy felt knowing he fell asleep while she was reaching out for help.
That makes think this was a spur of the moment thing. Hopefully not long term, abuse.
As a guy that was talking to a female that was molested (she told me she wasn’t penetrated) it’s nothing but pain. As a man you protect your woman and to let that damage happen to her while you weren’t available and you can’t get revenge literally degrades you as a man. In a way it feels as if you were assaulted too and you also become extremely defensive for the person and hurt. The dynamic changes because you feel like you can’t trust the people she’s around. Constantly worrying about her when you’re not with her.
The fact she FaceTimed the boyfriend but never called or texted the mom is heartbreaking. It’s like she knew she wouldn’t help her but was praying her boyfriend could
@@Dcll8451I get what you’re trying to say but some of what you’re saying is a little harmful to victims of assault, like there’s no need to specify there wasn’t penetration because we simply don’t need those details and it feels like saying “it wasn’t that bad” or “not as bad as it could have been.” But regardless of intention it simply isn’t necessary and is a little disrespectful to the victim. Also saying it feels you were assaulted too feels like taking the attention off the victim and putting yourself in their position when there is nothing like actually being the victim. Obviously others can grieve and feel that pain as well, but make sure you don’t tell an actual victim that their assault makes you feel like you’ve been assaulted too, because as a victim myself if my boyfriend told me that I would feel quite hurt and invalidated. You can feel hurt and ashamed and whatever else, but don’t tell the victim you felt like you were assaulted too.
"Mom" should have been imprisoned also. Her quick suspicion of SA signifies she KNEW.
What a garbage mother she is. She knows her daughter isn’t comfortable around that man but stayed with him
Not only stayed with him, but left her daughter alone with him! Sick!
Those texts she sent were chilling. Definitely don’t think that was the first time he’s assaulted her.
why didnt she lock her door?
@@MrMuaythai84we don't blame the victim.
@@MrMuaythai84 because a cheap lock on a door isn't going to stop a monster that is determined to get into the room. Bedroom doors that have locks are usually cheaply made and can be bypassed quickly and easily with a credit card, jiggling the door handle just right or even just turning the knob and pushing the door hard enough.
Plus, and I say this from experience, if you lock or barricade the door it usually makes the monster angry which makes what they do to you 100x worse.
@@MrMuaythai84 You're trash
@@MrMuaythai84 you are either very young or insensitive. A horrible comment.RIP Riley🙏⚘️💕
The mom automatically jumping to the thought that he could’ve attempted to sexually assault her tells me that she either knew he was capable of it or that he had attempted before. She miserably failed her daughter and should be looked into for the safety of her other children.
Or even had a hand in the dumping of the body
She knew, that's why she didn't bother going into the room, she was running cover to access the drugs.
Her fathers statement is absolutely heartbreaking 💔
My heart breaks for her dad! What a great, impactful victims statement 💔🙏💔
One of the BEST victims statement I’ve heard!
He doesn’t deserve to be “looked at in 15 years!”
So what if he shows “Good behavior” while in prison!!!!!!😡
He sure as hell did NOT show Good behavior while free!!!!
The mom is just as vile and responsible, she has Riley's blood on her hands and I hope she remembers that for the rest of her sad life.
Her mother made a poor choice in having him around, she worked a lot.
@@wvmom2727 a lot of us had single moms who worked ALOT. Work is never an excuse for having a drug addicted predator in the house. Even the drug addicted part is enough for me to never let my children alone with them. 👍🏽
@@wvmom2727 lol yeah, being pimped out for her next fix from that POS I'm sure
@@wvmom2727 oh, I guess that means she didn't contribute at all; carry on inviting junkies into your home then.
The mother failed her daughter and it sucks that she’s not held accountable for knowingly leaving her in danger
Exactly! I'd like to know what the Mom knew leading up to this for her to have an idea of why, how or what exactly happened. She immediately came up with motive, so what did she know? That part is the worst bc she could've prevented this had she kicked him out. She even mentioned how he got "sexually violent" toward HER, when using cocaine. Excuse me? & You don't immediately get a restraining order on him if he was acting in such a way? I absolutely blame the mother for him having complete access to her daughter & children. People need to stop disregarding such serious red flags, or any at all! I wonder how much the Mom regrets not having done something. I imagine she saw him acting weird toward Riley, looking/speaking to her inappropriately. Did anything happen leading up to this where she knew to fear him? Likely YES. I can't believe they didn't look into the mother more knowing she definitely knew more & no you don't let some drug addict with a criminal record around your kids, none the less MOVE IN. Also makes you wonder since she obviously knew he used cocaine, if the Mom was partying or had a bit of a habit, herself. I just can't look at this case & not blame the Mom for putting her children in harms way, even if she never thought he would harm the daughter. People are unpredictable & she knew better!
Stop letting men who are not the father move into homes with kids! Too many of these incidents happen
60x more likely to happen when mom leaves dad and get a new bf/husband
What I like about true crime comment sections is that they recognize drug addicts and criminals are the issue rather than blaming an entire gender.
@@CAHSR2020 Absolutely. Mothers and women partners also harm and kill their children. Domestic (or other) violence is a violence issue, not sex (mis-named 'gender'*) issue.
The courts skew the incidence of this because they give mothers full residence in most cases without qualification.
*'gender' is a grammatical term which is traditionally defined by linguistic heritage, an example being 'le' and 'la' in French.
'Gender' allocation varies according to language. It is culturally set linguistically. It can be varied by 'breaking' the cultural norms with futile results other than confusion.
'sex' refers to the presentation as a male or female phenotype at birth.
'sex' is physiologically determined, and cannot be changed.
Caveat: "Disorder of sexual development (DSD) is a rare disorder with an incidence of 1:4500 to 1:5000 (journals.lww.com/cur/Fulltext/9900/True_hermaphroditism__A_nightmare_for_an_adult.113.aspx)
There is no rational compatibility between 'gender' and 'sex' other than political pressures imo. They are different words indicating totally independent phenomena.
Not men... But definitely testosterone
@@exoticalBecky_Miami Let's not let political correctness cause us to pretend that 99% of sexual perpetrators are not men, FFS.
This makes me cry. That poor baby. I have a 17yr old daughter and I couldn't imagine losing her. It really matters so much who you allow in your home. Especially when you have children
That jury was amazing. Twenty minutes for the guilty verdict?! They legit went into that deliberation room, sat down, looked at each other and went “Yup, we’re done here.” 👏
Lets be honest if it wasn't for the mother, this young girl would still be alive. FACT.
As a single mother who got unexpectedly pregnant at 18 and had to do everything alone since day 1... i have a beautiful now 18 year old son - i can assure you that "respecting privacy" by not checking ifyour child is in bed before going to sleep is absolute nonsense. I will always knock the door and say his name, with no response I will make sure with my own eyes i see he is in his bed and if he is oke. This is daily i dont miss 1 day not a morning not an evening to check this. Yes maybe he will say: dont disturb me or maybe sometimes he will be upset for 2 seconds...so? I check on my child cause he is my child and he lives with me under my responsibility. Also at 18 years old. Imagien a daughter that young... its very very very irrisponsible if the mom.
Same here! My son might get irritated because sometimes I wake him up or something but I don’t care! I NEED to know that he’s ok because I’m not ok unless he’s ok.
She was scared she’d finally have to face her bf touching her daughter and she wasn’t up for that fight that night 😂
@@Just.A.T-Rex That so called mother should be serving time too
Great parenting right there !
An adult son is something else than a daughter tho.
This is why i never dated after my sons father passed when he was 2. Hes 18 now. The mother shoukd be charged too. She thought about herself the entire time. Pathetic
do you know what..... moving boyfriends into a home where there is kids is a HUGE NO!!!
Yeah but than people bully single moms saying it's selfish of them to raise a kid alone and a father is important which why a lot these women invite ANY MEN. Into their life smh
Not always, I moved in with my GF, now wife, with her 3 kids ( 4, 8, 10). I also brought 1 kid to the party(14).
We dated a while before we met each others kids.
Its a culture thing, look at the Mom, she is a mess and wilfully endangered her daughter.
If I was in anyway near drugs or had a record my now wife would of stopped the relationship. This Mom did not. Its all on her.
You can tell the type immediately, the ones who are proud to be working multiple low income jobs.
There are so many grown up children now telling what they suffered at the hands of men their mothers brought into their homes! And it is amazing how many knew or suspected what was going on and turned a blind eye.
Riley's mother should be charged with child neglect and endangerment! You let a drug addict with a long criminal history move in and she even told the police he could be sexually aggressive when high? So you leave him there with your children alone? That's neglect!
McCauley was my next door neighbor for close to 20 years. He made our lives a living hell - he was reported to LEO many times and nothing was ever done. My late husband was a disabled veteran and it got so bad that he had to carry a weapon on his wheelchair anytime he was out of the house.
Oh my gosh that is so terrible. And so terrible that people like this exist and have no care for humans and are at lose. hugs
@janiefox3458 I’m so sorry you and your husband went through that but I’m glad your husband knew how to protect you and him.
Why the he🏒🏒 did that Mom let a criminal stay home alone with her beautiful girl? She will have to live with that for the rest of her life.
@@bonniehare2372 I heard (only heard in town) that the mother claimed she didn't know that he was on drugs. However, if this is true, how could she not have when her mother was one of 2 magistrates in Morgan County at the time. The grandmother had to know his rap sheet and she left her grandchildren there with that psychopath the night this all went down.
@@janiefox3458 who ever told you that was wrong, the mom openly admitted that he was a druggie that got sexually aggressive while high...and he was always high. Mom of the year candidate.
Thank you for all the true crime stories 😊great channel 😊👍🇨🇦❤️
That mum should be investigated
Arrested🚽
Agree
The dads victim impact statement made me cry. So so sad. 15 years. That was so powerful and heartbreaking.
Take the rest of the kids away from the mother if she wants to bring in drug addicts and rapists in her household willingly
Lol, not realistic. Not enough placement homes or employees for all the moms who do that
@@kenw2225 the dad was still very present in his childrens lives after the divorce. I would hope the courts placed the siblings in the dad's home.
@@Chloe36499 That's not how family law works in the US.
@@CAHSR2020you do have a point. The court system gets it wrong a lot. The most harmful parent gets primary custody without regard for the children's safety. But that will never change unless judges and lawyers start listening to who the kids want to live with.
She wasn’t involved. She worked a lot. But she should not have had him around her daughter.
The mom knew what was going on. She didn’t care and was probably jealous. so desperate to have a man she kept him around…Her being free is insane.
Those type of MONSTERS are what you warn your children to stay away from - NOT bring them to live with them.
Another kid who never had a chance. A predator in the house and mom the enabler. Shocking and so preventable
This poor father. Prayers for peace and healing
I heart goes out to her father. It brought me to tears when I hear his statement. ❤
I grew up with Mom and I was on the search parties every day. This shook our community to the core. Riley was so sweet
The mom is a piece of shit for even letting him in the house with her kids
I am so sorry you went through that.
hope mom knows its almost entirely her fault.
Can't be true, mum never grew up.
