Kids are idiotic. I heard two 13 year olds on the train yesterday talking about how they had been lighting fires in fields and their friends were responsible for a giant one that made the papers all for a social media fad. I told them to pack it in as they could kill people.
@@glmtwn And worst of all, those same people who are cruel and careless are everywhere you go. They may seem like caring and friendly people when you’re out and about, but they are just pretending and are really shitty people. Not everyone is like that obviously, but when someone is being nice, sometimes questioning them is necessary
Are you telling me that Cheng's wife and step-daughter went missing, then he attempted to clean blood out of the carpet multiple times, as well as skipped town for a week? And he had defensive wounds on his hand, and his neighbors had seen him lugging large storage containers from the apartment? And he called the Police after weeks, claiming it to be the actions of 2 strangers with magic sleep dust? And the police ruled him out...
police should have asked Cheng, since he is now cooporating, where he dumped all the washed evidence and which dates. Then follow his story behind his back using surveillance/cctv from those dates to see if he or his vehicles were present as in his stated story, if there is no evidence of his movements. Book that son of a bitch.
@@thewhitewolf58 This reminds me of that one tweet of someone saying how people are mean towards true crime fans and one family member of a murder victim replies with how these true crime fans just straight up contacted them every time they can just to "help solve" their father's case.
@@adam.n-steve I mean, there's nothing wrong with being interested in true crime media, but yeah, people need to leave the investigations to professionals. Insinuating themselves into shit like that is extremely narcissistic and helps no one. However, even "professionals" can be incompetent sometimes.
The Amber Aiaz story is just freaking insane. Why would the kidnappers demand for him to clean up the apartment? As a matter of fact, why didn't they use the supposed halothane on Amber and Melissa? There's definitely something fishy going on. I still think it's Cheng, polygraphs aren't always 100% accurate and can be easily beaten by the right person
What makes you think that they didn't use the sedative on amber and her daughter when they were "taken"? It could have been used on them just like it could have been used on her bf but they didn't ever say that it was proven to have been used in the first place so its all just speculative at this point. I think its likely that Amber just wanted to leave and did so with her daughter, it's also possible that she was murdered or kidnapped but I bet it's more likely she probably left the country back to China
@@Y-e-e-t its not really a full on pseudoscience, there are actually many factors in it that are based on science but there are ways that it can be wrong also and since it isn't a 100% accurate form of detection for lies it isn't admissible in courts of law in the US
Casual reminder that Established Titles is a known scam. It does not make you a Lord or Lady. You can add Lord/Lady/Prince/Princess/King/Queen/etc to your name on official documents in most places without any sort of proof needed. Take the money you'd have wasted on this and donate it to a tree conservation group, who will almost certainly plant more than one tree with your donation.
I also wonder what people would think if a company started selling small plots of land in places like Africa, or native reservations to random people all over the world, and encouraging them to refer to themselves as "cheif"
Of course it is, the only way to have any kind of title is to be born into royalty or nobility, or marry someone who is, or else be knighted or honoured by the Queen.
@@EditorOfSL my Great Dane Lord G.Max will be very disheartened by this piece of news. Then again the G.Max is just a very abbreviated nickname for Lord Passes-Gasses-a-Maximus. He was a rescue that was eating out of garbage cans so the first two weeks we had him he had awful flatulence. Now he lives like doggy royalty with his own lazyboy recliner. I don't think I'll tell him he's not a real Lord
Yeah I was immediately suspicious when he said he was drugged with a substance that knocked him out instantly...... The list of anesthetics that can do that is incredibly short and not easy to get ahold of.....even chloroform takes a lot longer than television shows would have you believe Also, wasn't she abducted before he was "drugged", how did Amber's blood end up in the house if she was already missing.....the whole story seems a bit....off
They're still used because the Interrogator is banking on you being dumb and stupid, hoping you don't know that polygraphs don't work. They're there to mind fuck you so the Interrogator can get a confession out of you, whether it was a truthful confession or not doesn't matter
Exactly. Generalised anxiety will tell them your lying and conditions like sociopathy will see people pass with flying colours. Can't be used as evidence in any court of law, yet investigators still waste their time using them. May as well use psychic's.
I understand why they're used (to manipulate people who are too vulnerable or "upstanding" to get a lawyer) but I don't understand why anyone honest would go online trying to defend them as I see in other comments. It is not debatable that they don't work as lie detectors. That's why they're not called lie detectors lol
But-but-but.. but the FBI administered it so obviously it must be legit because the FBI would never be deceitful. They are government officials and as we all know the Government is 100% trustworthy
I just read a r/UnsolvedMysteries post about this on Reddit a couple weeks ago. The consensus there was that he did it. Main things pointing to his guilt was the fact that he went soooo far out of his way to make sure the school and work didn't think anything was wrong by even impersonating Amber, the notes never asked him to do any of that. Also, of course he didn't do anything shady while being followed, he had to know he was being watched.
heres the thing: master manipulator or not, you don't create a story that out there unless at least part of it, were true. Yes it's out there, but how did an Uber Driver know about a rare and difficult to find instantly effective knock out gas? They would have checked his search history, his past etc. Could he have done so? Possibly. But something about this just... no they didn't tell him to do that, but if ambers phone was dinging to let her know messages had come in and the school had called about the daughter not showing up, there are reasons he would have done those things. a master manipulator would have chosen a better lie to use wouldn't they? Something more believable and easier to defend than this insane ride. I don't fully believe he's telling the whole truth but... ugh...
@@Werewolfoverlord12 he didn’t need to know about it if it didn’t really happen. But even if he had that chemical in mind when he concocted his story, who’s so say he didn’t stumble across an article or something that mentioned it in his past and is one of those weird bits of information we retain for no specific reason? Just because he didn’t google it recently doesn’t mean he didn’t hear about it from somewhere else in the distant or not so distant past. He could of just said he was knocked out with something and lucked out that something like that actually existed but if I had to put money on it, he read or heard a story from China that involved that substance.
@@Werewolfoverlord12 i also think it's super bold to choose such a highly detailed story that he'd no doubt have to recall to police over and over to check for inconsistencies. Definitely not guilty beyond reasonable doubt imo.
@@gaaraxnaru yeah you definitely could be right; I've just always heard it's a fine line when it comes to law enforcement as retelling events perfectly every time is a red flag, as is changing important details with each retelling, so I imagine to get that balance right, confidently pass an FBI polygraph, and master the nuances of subconscious body language with an expert watching you would be extremely difficult haha.
The Lost Boy Larry theory I agree with most is that only the initial transmission came from Larry. The others were all kids playing cruel pranks. That still doesn't answer whether or not Larry was in any danger or even real in the first place.
I really doubt any Little Larry ever existed, no name has ever been putt to the broadcast and not bodies matching the scenario found. It's almost certainly a hoax.
@@heat_wave5774 well, I’m starting to think that all these mysterious “411” vanishings and the like, and tragic stories like Larry’s show me that human beings have a terrible time actually countenancing the scale of the Earth we live on. Like, I live in the UK which is tiny compared to New Mexico but still, if you picked a sufficiently hidden spot at random on the map I don’t think we can be sure, even if all our tech was brought to bear, that we would necessarily find them. The world is huge and America is crazy big. It kind of wants to make me retreat to the supernatural hypothesis, because this story has always broken my heart. I just think he was real, man. E
"boy David" better hope they never find "lost boy Larry"'s body, because preventing a rescue and causing someone's death by doing so is definitely something he could be charged for.
@@josephbolton5199 I think its less political and more societal stuff. America is very individualistic where most other societies have a more group culture. Here included. And sometimes? Sometimes people are just damn cruel
I don’t think he was doing it to be nice to the abductors, (idk who you’re talking about when you say “his pen pal”.. they didn’t mention he had a pen pal). I think he was doing it so they don’t harm his family
On the Amber Aiaz story, I'm pretty certain its Cheng. It literally sounds like the Jennifer Pan or Chris Watts story. Why didn't the kidnappers used halothane on the two subjects when it was easier and less risky? Why would the kidnappers demand for him to clean TWICE when it was easier to do it themselves when everyone is knocked out? Plus, polygraphs aren't really 100% and they don't really ascertain the truth, they mostly rely on manipulation and fear-inducing tactics.
1- who said they never used the halothane on the 2? They could've used it on Cheng, then when wife/daughter heard the commotion--a struggle could've ensued & then it was eventually used on them to get them out quietly as possible. 2- for the kidnappers to commit a crime, stay at the scene for hours is risky. The criminals wouldnt know if a neighbor had called the police or what...
@@childishgambino4845 the girlfriend wasn’t in the house at the time just the step daughter. In his story the girlfriend was driving home and never came home
The story about Lost Boy Larry reminds me of the unsolved case that originated the concept of the Amber alert. For a long time I thought Amber just meant 'orange' as in 'potential danger to a minor' - when I learned it was the name of a real girl who had gone missing and been found murdered, and whose killer was never caught or identified by authorities, it was genuinely a little heartbreaking.
@@lilatune Adam John Walsh (November 14, 1974 - July 27, 1981) was an American child who was abducted from a Sears department store at the Hollywood Mall in Hollywood, Florida on July 27, 1981. His severed head was found two weeks later in a drainage canal alongside Highway 60 / Yeehaw Junction in rural Indian River County, Florida. His death garnered national interest and was made into the 1983 television film Adam, seen by 38 million people in its original airing.[3] His father, John Walsh, became an advocate for victims of violent crimes and was the host of the television program America's Most Wanted and, later, In Pursuit with John Walsh.[4] Convicted serial killer Ottis Toole confessed to Adam's murder, but was never convicted of the crime because evidence was reportedly lost and Toole later recanted his confession. Toole died in prison of liver failure on September 15, 1996.[5] No new evidence has come to light since then, and police announced on December 16, 2008, that the Walsh case was closed and that they were satisfied that Toole was the killer.
@@lilatune he started a show called “americas most wanted” after his son was kidnapped. I think “code Adam” was a thing that stores would do when they found children wandering around in stores without their parents, after the story got famous.
The Larry case is heartbreaking. I wonder if someday in the future we’ll find a wrecked car with two skeletons and a broken radio out in the New Mexican sands.
I think Cheng had the perfect cover up for the first case. With that story, he was able to clean up all the evidence with an alibi. Also he was able to stall their disappearence for a week, making the case much more difficult to solve for the authorities, as well as giving himself time to come up with a perfectly crafted cover up. They simply had nothing to charge Cheng with. Even if FBI's lie tests had mixed results, it still would not have been a very strong case. These lie detector tests and interrogations are perfect for criminals if the suspect was apperhanded quickly and they didn't have the time to cover all the holes in their stories. But then again, Cheng had all the time he needed to make sure his story held up.
I don't think so, the halothane thing is just too much of a coincidence, I think that the Chinese government has something to do with it, bcs it wouldn't be too surprising for the Chinese to do things like these
While I am leaning more towards him being guilty, it’s still odd that he showed police where all the evidence was. He could have easily claimed they left on their own or he could have left the country and easily got away with it.
Sorry but I'm genuinely shocked that anybody believes Cheng's story. He was knocked unconscious using a rare drug used by the military and awoke to a note telling him to hid all the evidence and not to contact the police. He surprisingly did so and then left home for a week before calling the police. He had defensive wounds on his body and was seen carrying two concealed boxes into a truck despite the fact there was still evidence to trace? This following the reveal that she was actually financially poor and the only lead is a mysterious man outside the country from Cheng himself?
I made this point in my own comment but the story about the mist knocking him out is really similar to how the brother of Kim Jong Un was assassinated in a Malaysian airport in 2017. My feeling is he used that as inspiration for that part of his story as it would have been relatively close in the news.
I mean that’s not the only drug that would knock or zombify someone. There’s quite a few plants and research chemicals. Ask anyone who’s overdosed on benzos or opiates (doses that would be enough for just a blow. I remember a guy on Reddit who tried taking a dose but got the whole lot blown in his face by a fan. Within 3 mins his messages were quite fucked). There’s also that well known South American plant that has a zombifying effect. It’s actually scarily common. Any solvent (eg petrol or lighter fluid) could do the trick. (After some processing. Not that I’ll say how but it’s not exactly hard for someone versed in chemistry)
A friend of mine used to volunteer for Life Line. They used to get phone calls from a person claiming to be a child who was kept on an isolated farm and who was being physically abused by their parents. The caller had various reasons as to why they couldn’t give (or didn’t know) enough details to allow the farm to be located. The volunteers were 90% sure the calls were hoaxes but could never be really sure and that caused them a lot of pain. This reminds me of the Larry incident. Also Armistead Maurine’s “The Night Listener” tells a similar story where the caller was probably an adult woman pretending to be a young boy. So, yeah, I take the story with a grain of salt.
Cheng could indeed be a premeditated psycho. Especially if he had just found out that his significant other was not being honest about her finances. His story about the supposed abductors directing him to clean the crime scene twice; is way too suspicious. Furthermore, he was able to pass polygraph tests which may be an indication that he has no moral emotions. As most of know that polygraph exams monitor things such as blood pressure and other bodily reactions.
@@D-me-dream-smp mmmm yeah.... this case makes me wonder if Cheung was planning to steal her business all along? She seemingly had more money than he did, and greed is eternal.
@@D-me-dream-smp if he had drained them right before or her or anyone else, it would be obvious through bank statements/credit card records. It was even stated that her business was on the brink of collapse. I still think they got in an argument and killed her. The defensive wound on his hand helps the claim, the coolers he moved and also the excuse to clean up the place twice.
Lost Boy Larry's case is really frustrating to hear... This might be one example of how a single, most likely serious situation of a cry for help can just be easily ruined and falsified by other selfish and insensitive people.
@Caleb OKAY Yes I was thinking that Cheng was involved in their disappearances. Regarding whoever took the girls, why would they leave Cheng at the house, when they could've taken him as well and not have to worry about him contacting the police?
@Caleb OKAY yeah there's a 0% chance he's telling the truth. They just kidnapped them for a few days, no reason, you'll get em back soon Also we just kidnapped them, no murder or anything, but also there's blood everywhere.
Cheung is probably guilty as psychopaths find it easy to beat polygraphs. It's terrible to think Larry may well have been real and certainly not impossible. Anyone who was found to be hampering the search in any way should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
Yeah he is guilty as sin. IMO his story is too ridiculous. It doesn't make sense that the kidnappers would keep contacting him and not ask for anything. Why would they even bother to contact him at all if they had no reason to? Then they had the witnesses who saw him dragging large containers out of the building. He probably took them away and buried them. The daughters school would have eventually reported her missing most likely, if he hadn't gone to the police. So that is why he felt like he had to contact the cops with that story.
@@lanadelsultana I've failed one myself. A demonstrator came to my upper school in the 80s and several of us were given a test, asking basic questions like what we're our ages, hair colour, what town were we in. I failed all, and I was a very nervous child so that doesn't surprise me. The man giving the demonstration kept demanding that I "keep calm" which had the opposite effect. Also, diagnosed psychopaths usually do not indicate deception, even though they may later confess or be found to have left dna at crime scenes or on victims. Polygraphs have never been admissible in court in my country because they are so unreliable.
@@lainiwakura1776 But at some point when the daughter didn't return to the school, the school would suspicious (unless he then went in and formally withdrew the daughter.)
Polygraph tests really should be outlawed at this point. I get that it's used as a tool to get information out of someone even though it's worthless. But in the end it just ends up hurting your case or getting false results. Too easy to pass or fail.
Yeah, the guilty use them to clear themselves of any suspicion in the public eye, and the police use them to try an establish probable cause to investigate somebody, even though there's proof to the contrary, that the polygraph does not detect lies. It's complete bogus, but in the end just remember when it comes to a polygraph, or a field sobriety test, you are under no obligation to take one, and you legally cannot be punished for refusing. (That would be a violation of your civil rights, and of the 4th amendment, assuming you're an American.) These tests also can't be submitted to a court of law, and your refusal to take the tests also may not be admitted. This would violate your fifth amendment right, so that you don't incriminate yourself, to remain silent.
I mean, it was Cheng, right? I've watched enough videos of solved murders to know that murderers will often invent a suspect. And you said their relationship was intense and volatile. The polygraph doesn't mean anything. Those things are hardly more accurate than a coin flip.
I remember when I was given a polygraph and failed 5 separate times when they asked me if I distributed drugs. I never have and admitted I’ve smoke mj less then 5 times in my life. Nope. Each time I was called a liar. It’s baffling how these things are taken seriously. .
Exactly. I'm sure it was just your nervousness that caused you to fail. And anyone would be nervous if they were being falsely accused of a major crime. By the same token, people who have no moral compunctions can easily pass a polygraph. They're hardly better than a coin flip, and we should quit using them.
@@rileybear836 was applying for a fire department. I passed everything but the question on breaking and entering/vandalism. No matter how many times they asked me, I couldn't think of anything but it kept coming up as deceptive
The Lost Boy Larry story is disheartening. Law enforcement genuinely gave it their all and did everything they could, possibly spending millions of dollars. But it was all for naught...
@@jeepz669 but there was, don't let these kids fool you. The first call did come from a little kid asking for help then when it got massive attention the trolls came in
Amber was so poor she had to move back to China, but, shortly afterward she has enough money to start a seafood business in Las Vegas? Something weird about that.
How do you think she got that money? Maybe owning a seafood import business would make it easier to smuggle things and that's where she found her financers.
In places like china, the families will combine all their money to help the American family member to achieve the American dream. That’s why he said with help from her family she moved back to the US. Once achieved, the American family member will send money back to them or bring family members over to the US and be their sponsor
Case 1- Assuming Cheng wasn't in on it, he waited too long to reach out to authorities. The authorities apparently covered all bases, but I find it hard to believe he wasn't involved or knew more than he told them. If he wasn't involved, Amber might have arranged for herself and her daughter to disappear. Case 2- It's hard to tell if Larry was a hoax or not. So many things happened that complicated any potential hopes of rescue.
Think about this: How long does it take for a kid to get sick/die in a closed vehicle in regular weather? This kid was supposedly out in the desert heat, crying, for three days minimum. I'm not saying it was a hoax, but I am suggesting that it was something more than meets the eye.
@@o-mangaming5042 I’ve been wondering if the effects of dehydration and lack of food intake as well as the heat the kid was experiencing would make him disoriented. Maybe he was describing the place he was in wrong? :/ either way I kind of hope it was a hoax because that would be one of the most horrible ways to go
Cheng did it. Even police are certain in reality. But he had enough time to cover his tracks perfectly. State just didn't have anything to build a case on.
first things first, hoax or not, it's disgusting how so many people were trying to delay the search only to prank authorities. second ... it is equally as sad that it needed a lesson like this for the new mexico search and rescue council to improve their methods instead of doing that by default. and lastly, if this wasn't a hoax, this is probably the saddest and cruelest thing to happen for a little child that was trapped, terrified and on the verge of death. imagine you'd lay in hospital with a serious injury and everyone would just make fun of you instead of helping, fuck all of these trolls srsly.
I think it was probably not real. A small child crying in a baking car for three to five days? Kids get heat stroke sitting in a closed car in 50 degree weather. That being said, I'm not sure if it was a hoax or possibly a drill to instill change in Search and Rescue tactics.
You act like people are supposed to have it all figured out before terrible things happen. Sometimes we only learn valuable lessons after terrible things happen and we learn from them and make improvement so that they aren't as likely to happen in the future. The very first cars ever invented didn't have airbags or safety glass in the windshield or seatbelts. It took people dying in car accidents for those safety features to be invented and made standard to help save lives.
@@tekbarrier yep, people sometimes forget that everything around them is done by other people and not omnipotent gods. It's easy to assume that specialists in the field you don't know much about are supposed to have the answers to all the existing questions, but it's simply not how it works. Humanity has yet so much to learn.
So my question is why didn’t the kidnappers use the same spray on the girls like they did on him? Why fight two girls when you could spray them and not knock them out too? They kinda skipped that question.

That first story is hilarious (tragic of course but also hilarious). The guy managed to make up a story that allowed him to blatantly clean up a murder scene, avoid contacting police, and do basically everything that the murderer would do, while at the same time, remaining consistent with his story of total innocence. I guess as long as the story stirs up more hostility against China, the cops will take it seriously no matter how ridiculous it is.

It asks mundane questions first to establish your norm or non stressed baseline response. Then it can see if a question related to a crime makes your responses go haywire. However if you're a psychopath who has no remorse I guess you might not be stressed or bothered about the crime but only about being caught.

I believed you until i did my own research. The site clearly states "The titles “Laird, Lord or Lady of Glencoe and Lochaber” are trademarked titles under Highland Titles which allow us to use them within our community of followers around the world."

@@winningsides7347 - From what I've researched so far, it appears Established Titles is more of a novelty souvenir purchase. You're basically buying a "fun" certificate. - There's no physical business address in Scotland. The address on the site appears to be the land itself. - It's owned by a company called Galton Voysey (still researching this bit) that's based in Hong Kong. - It's stated on their site that your purchase is a personal dedication and souvenir. NOTE: this isn't a bad thing, but when you watch promos, you're under the impression that the plot you donate to / buy is under your name somehow, and this might not be the case. you could very well be sharing that plot with someone else, like a timeshare. - So far, I don't see any way you can visit the land if you decide to go to Scotland. NOTE: this probably isn't a deal-breaker for some people, but one of the cool things about land conservation charity programs is that you can likely setup a way to tour the land. it's a great motivator to see the effort of these programs putting your money to good use. - It was established in 2020. So it's going to have mixed reviews since it's relatively new. So for me, Established Titles appears to be more of a company that might be taking advantage of the average person wanting to help protect land anywhere and everywhere they can. It's one of those situations where we really need to keep an eye out to see if they make actual progress with the land itself with the purchases people have already made.
How did Larry use the CB radio for 3 days straight? The car battery should have died in that time. If you leave your lights on for more then a few hours it totally drains the battery. I'm also wondering how the signal traveled all over Arizona and possibly into other states? Most CB transmissions only go a few miles.
No need for such an aggressive response. Yes watched video also grew up with a dad that fiddled with cb radios even with the signal being boosted they don't go that far. Hope your days gets better so you aren't so negative to basic innocent questions.
I love your lazy masquerade channel. I must admit, even though I have an unnatural fascination with cases such as these. They are very tragic and sad. The fact some rules, laws and techniques in solving cases, and search and rescue are what they are now means they are touched by the blood of the dead. Makes it all the more saddening.
Fantastic adverts couldn’t get enough of them, really long ones, and I’m sure occasionally there was someone telling a story in between them for a few seconds. I might be wrong.
By those involved with New Mexico search & rescue for more funding - no different than giving money to & sponsoring the new Ju state called Ukraine. NATO.
Considering the car was never found it seems like the obvious take is that the entire thing was a hoax. My guess, though of course it's just speculation, is that the initial call that the woman reported on was something like a prank call, the boys might have even known her. Because it got published in the newspaper, and it was a gripping story, it spread all over and sadly to many people who would pretend to be the boy as well. I was thinking the end of the story would be that they found the car turned over or something like that, but once I got to the end I felt like it almost certainly was a hoax carried out by many people that were not connected
The woman who first reported it lived in Southern California (Fontana is near San Bernardino). If it was a hoax done by boys who knew her, how could they cause their own CB signal to originate hundreds of miles away in New Mexico?
@@tekbarrier I just said might have known her, I don't think it's likely though. I don't know much about CB radio , how does one know the location of a given signal? Like is there a way to tell direction, and distance and from there is an estimation? Or just like estimated based on signal strength at a given frequency or something like that?
@@farcenter CB radios normally have very short distances-like 5 miles on average, although there are a lot of variables. Even with the variables, it wouldn't be possible for a CB signal to travel hundreds of miles (other than the proposed weather/sun anomaly.)
I think the Lost Boy Larry case was an inspiration behind the classic Simpsons episode Radio Bart which saw anchorman Kent Brockman's big debut because of Bart's prank that ended with him up trapped down a well.
The Radio Bart episode was based on the 1951 film Ace in the Hole, which sees the story of a down-and-out journalist exploiting a story about a man trapped in a cave to re-jump start his career.
Wait the FBI says they seek two people connected with the first case with a black Cadillac, how could Cheng have known about their car if they knocked him out in their apartment? How could he have provided that in testimony unless there is a witness to the pair around the apartment who corroborated? Maybe the police have more evidence than they are willing to share at the moment?
@@maxdurk4624 Look up the FBI flier of the missing people. It mentions the abductors are possibly related to a black cadillac. I was wondering how Cheng would know that if he never saw them before being doused and that he only had contact with them via letters. If Cheng said that during interrogation, it would be brought up as a discrepancy in his story, would it not? And nowhere in the story is it mentioned Cheng saw them drive off out of a window at any point. That could indicate they have more evidence to Chengs story that they are not sharing for investigative reasons or another witness.
@@maxdurk4624 Actually, I have now found a source that states the police has said the black Cadillac connection doesn't come from Cheng at all, it comes from others in the apartment complex, which is all that is said about it. The FBI flier also mentions that the two abductors were seen in the _vicinity_ of the complex. The wording seems to suggest outside of the residency before or after the crime, but I may be wrong there. However, this pretty much confirms there are other witnesses to these people, or at least their car. Essentially it means they confirmed the details of them as well provided by Cheng, who saw them briefly before being incapacitated, but the descriptions of them both are extremely detailed in the FBI flier. Going as far as approximate weight in pounds for one of them. If he was lying about being incapacitated, would he really pretend to know a huge amount of details about his fake kidnappers? From other such liars, no, they usually claim they didnt see anything about them or keep details as light as possible, as to not arouse suspicion and add hard details to their story. I think his initial description must have been very light, if he was made incapacitated or not. So it is very plausible they added descriptions of them too. I do not think Cheng is lying that these two people were at the residency when he said they were, or that they exist at all. This raises some questions. The police said "we have reasons to believe this was a kidnapping", so what reasons? We do not know for sure, but it may have something to do with the witnesses and their testimony which is mostly unknown to us now for some reason. It is for this reason and others that I do not think Cheng is cleared as a suspect, and neither do I think the police has him cleared, even if the two people did arrive at his residency and did facilitate the kidnapping. The most fantastical element of the story is the drugging of Cheng, and as such it is probable that its made up. I think Cheng may have been involved with their kidnapping, and when they found out the wife had no money, he got in hot waters with whoever these people are in employ to, which is why he decided to concoct this story in order to distance himself from the kidnapping and get protection which he may have from the police. This matches his behavior, another detail never mentioned in the retellings of this true crime because its hidden behind a paywall of the LA Times. When he called the police they mentioned he sounded nervous and paranoid about people watching him, and when he arrived at the Police Department to report the crime, he literally asked them if he could _stay at the police station_ for the night. Feeling more secure around police officers than going back to his apartment for the evening. Seeing the police as saviors or security, that is not guilt behavior, unless he is guilty but also afraid of who he did this with. This is a fantastical theory, but I think it could be possible.
On the second story, I don't know what the odds are but literally moments before I turned on this video, I was reminiscing about how I used to ride in my dad's truck with him while he was hauling logs. I guess I rode with him several times through my life but I remember riding with him a lot when I was right around that age - and I remember him having a breakdown on a steep hill around that time but he managed to coast on over it and get pulled over. Granted, this would have been the early 90's and here in Arkansas. But I was an ornery kid and it would have been just like me to get on my dad's CB while he was out and say something crazy - not saying that's what was up with the Larry kid - but I would have done something like that not realizing it could get things stirred up and concern people. Just spontaneously I mean - I wouldn't have done something like that knowing there was something else happening. I don't think I could have kept up an act of that nature or for that long and I certainly would have never lied about something happening to my family - and I don't think many kids _that_ young could or would either - maybe some older kids though.
Another really interesting one. I hadn't heard any of these cases and the Larry case gave me chills thinking about how it would feel to discover that. Amazing work Sam Ryder (or Rider) for the script too.
The first story doesn't make sense to me at all for multiple reasons. 1. Why would you wait weeks on end to call authorities without even so much as a ransom note, the supposed kidnappers never told Cheng what they wanted with the girls in the first place, just that they'd be back if he "cleans up and waits". 2. Nobody saw anyone drop these ominous notes at his apartment all the time? 3. Hello??? He was literally seen pulling large containers/coolers out of his apartment. What for? Why would the kidnappers want him to get rid of those? He could've told police where he brought them if there was nothing in them. 4. "The police wouldn't have known about their disappearance if Cheng hadn't reported it" They would've eventually. He couldn't pose as her to clients forever, he couldn't pretend the stepdaughter was sick and unable to attend school forever. So the logical step is to report them missing himself, but he needed the time to spin this fantastical tale of a kidnapping and to remove any evidence that would've pointed to him.
Larry is clearly a hoax. You're telling me they spent all that time searching, found nothing... ever? After all these years? over 4 decades and that truck is still out there overturned and was NEVER stumbled upon? Whoever did do that prank, more power to them cus of the system put in place that now saves REAL lives.
I don't know, man. The world is absolutely huge and people go missing everyday never to be seen again. If they got into a crash and into a good enough spot it's possible they could never be found. I think initially it was real but turned to cruel pranks.
@@Graves933 They were never reported missing though. Not 1 person reported anyone that even remotely could be them. Maybe they just weren't missed by anyone, maybe no Family, maybe no job, no friends, no school, no neighbors, etc.. It COULD happen but that's A LOT of maybes
@@Graves933 I like this reply because it IS surely possible that the site was never discovered. But those odds are so low and get lower with time, and it’s been a long time. And a mystery this big - nationwide attention with specific details; a kid, a man, an overturned pickup truck, New Mexico, 40 years. There’s a slither of a chance, but my logic just fights it so hard.
@@fairladykd6734 A lot of people go missing and no one makes reports, there are cases where people assumed their family was roughing it along the states when they were dead for years. Maybe there IS missing people reports out there that we donr know of, maybe they went missing in neighboring states ? Maybe they weren't even from the states and were just visiting, we have no information like that
@@gid-and-friends I honestly don't know what could have happened, i do agree however it is very unlikely in 40 years there wasn't a sliver of evidence found. No truck, No bodies, No supposed missing person reports, ect. If it is a hoax, would they ever fess up to it? The statutes of limitations is surely up by now especially if they were merely a child when it happened. Did they ever tell someone about the supposed prank? Would they come forward? Were they from out of state ? Out of country? Was the signal 100% certainly from that area with no doubt? Even if it's a slight doubt, then it could have came from anywhere if it's not certain. There are way too many factors in play, I don't know new Mexico well but where I live it's dense forest for hours upon hours. If someone went missing in that terrarain but the size of the state it would be so difficult to find any evidence if any at all. With genealogy testing, a lot of Jane and John does are getting their names back. Maybe one of these days we might find Larry and his dad, or find out it was just a very good hoax.

Come see what’s in mine!
lessss gooooo
👽
the situation of larry is super fucking sad, people who were wrecking the operation deserve to be left in the middle of the desert themselfes
fr i don’t understand how ppl could b so cruel and careless
I really hope the asshole who pretended to be David gets into trouble for messing up an investigation. Can’t he be charged? 🤔
Kids are idiotic. I heard two 13 year olds on the train yesterday talking about how they had been lighting fires in fields and their friends were responsible for a giant one that made the papers all for a social media fad. I told them to pack it in as they could kill people.
Larry was a hoax 🤦♂️🤦♂️
@@glmtwn And worst of all, those same people who are cruel and careless are everywhere you go. They may seem like caring and friendly people when you’re out and about, but they are just pretending and are really shitty people. Not everyone is like that obviously, but when someone is being nice, sometimes questioning them is necessary
Are you telling me that Cheng's wife and step-daughter went missing, then he attempted to clean blood out of the carpet multiple times, as well as skipped town for a week?
And he had defensive wounds on his hand, and his neighbors had seen him lugging large storage containers from the apartment?
And he called the Police after weeks, claiming it to be the actions of 2 strangers with magic sleep dust?
And the police ruled him out...
And the kidnappers also happened to be east Asians.
Give me a break, it was my 1st week on the job and my 1st case.
police should have asked Cheng, since he is now cooporating, where he dumped all the washed evidence and which dates. Then follow his story behind his back using surveillance/cctv from those dates to see if he or his vehicles were present as in his stated story, if there is no evidence of his movements. Book that son of a bitch.
I think maybe Abraham Lincoln intervened 😩
@@wonphi no, that is too logical!
Larry´s story just goes to show you that human trash lurking in society was not created by online forums or comment sections on the internet.
Yup also that people wanting to be private detectives can also ruin an investigation.
@@thewhitewolf58 This reminds me of that one tweet of someone saying how people are mean towards true crime fans and one family member of a murder victim replies with how these true crime fans just straight up contacted them every time they can just to "help solve" their father's case.
@@adam.n-steve I mean, there's nothing wrong with being interested in true crime media, but yeah, people need to leave the investigations to professionals. Insinuating themselves into shit like that is extremely narcissistic and helps no one. However, even "professionals" can be incompetent sometimes.

it’s fake
The Amber Aiaz story is just freaking insane. Why would the kidnappers demand for him to clean up the apartment? As a matter of fact, why didn't they use the supposed halothane on Amber and Melissa? There's definitely something fishy going on. I still think it's Cheng, polygraphs aren't always 100% accurate and can be easily beaten by the right person
yeah, polygraph aren't admissible evidence in court for a reason.
It's actually insane how many people still treat such a pseudo-science as always accurate too.
pseudo scientific nonsense 😂 and Chang is so stupid to clean the evidence....
What makes you think that they didn't use the sedative on amber and her daughter when they were "taken"? It could have been used on them just like it could have been used on her bf but they didn't ever say that it was proven to have been used in the first place so its all just speculative at this point. I think its likely that Amber just wanted to leave and did so with her daughter, it's also possible that she was murdered or kidnapped but I bet it's more likely she probably left the country back to China
@@Y-e-e-t its not really a full on pseudoscience, there are actually many factors in it that are based on science but there are ways that it can be wrong also and since it isn't a 100% accurate form of detection for lies it isn't admissible in courts of law in the US
Casual reminder that Established Titles is a known scam. It does not make you a Lord or Lady. You can add Lord/Lady/Prince/Princess/King/Queen/etc to your name on official documents in most places without any sort of proof needed. Take the money you'd have wasted on this and donate it to a tree conservation group, who will almost certainly plant more than one tree with your donation.
I also wonder what people would think if a company started selling small plots of land in places like Africa, or native reservations to random people all over the world, and encouraging them to refer to themselves as "cheif"
As someone from Scotland, I hate the commodification of my country and the devaluing of the title of Lord by this shitty company.
@@nunceccemortiferiscultu7826 Breh they’ve already carved up those folk’s land
Of course it is, the only way to have any kind of title is to be born into royalty or nobility, or marry someone who is, or else be knighted or honoured by the Queen.
@@EditorOfSL my Great Dane Lord G.Max will be very disheartened by this piece of news. Then again the G.Max is just a very abbreviated nickname for Lord Passes-Gasses-a-Maximus.

"A master manipulator, but he passed a lie detector!"
That's not the solid evidence that perhaps I was expecting.
Yeah I was immediately suspicious when he said he was drugged with a substance that knocked him out instantly...... The list of anesthetics that can do that is incredibly short and not easy to get ahold of.....even chloroform takes a lot longer than television shows would have you believe
Also, wasn't she abducted before he was "drugged", how did Amber's blood end up in the house if she was already missing.....the whole story seems a bit....off
Yea. Pretty sure we're usually told how unreliable the polygraph tests are. They can actually be manipulated.
Cheng did that 💩
He obviously did it
@@jayzee5980 It was also said that he passed an actual FBI Phsycologist
It blows my mind that polygraph tests are still so common despite how junk science-y they are.
They're still used because the Interrogator is banking on you being dumb and stupid, hoping you don't know that polygraphs don't work. They're there to mind fuck you so the Interrogator can get a confession out of you, whether it was a truthful confession or not doesn't matter
Exactly. Generalised anxiety will tell them your lying and conditions like sociopathy will see people pass with flying colours. Can't be used as evidence in any court of law, yet investigators still waste their time using them. May as well use psychic's.
I understand why they're used (to manipulate people who are too vulnerable or "upstanding" to get a lawyer) but I don't understand why anyone honest would go online trying to defend them as I see in other comments. It is not debatable that they don't work as lie detectors. That's why they're not called lie detectors lol
But-but-but.. but the FBI administered it so obviously it must be legit because the FBI would never be deceitful. They are government officials and as we all know the Government is 100% trustworthy
people love their junk science haha.
I just read a r/UnsolvedMysteries post about this on Reddit a couple weeks ago. The consensus there was that he did it. Main things pointing to his guilt was the fact that he went soooo far out of his way to make sure the school and work didn't think anything was wrong by even impersonating Amber, the notes never asked him to do any of that. Also, of course he didn't do anything shady while being followed, he had to know he was being watched.
heres the thing: master manipulator or not, you don't create a story that out there unless at least part of it, were true. Yes it's out there, but how did an Uber Driver know about a rare and difficult to find instantly effective knock out gas? They would have checked his search history, his past etc. Could he have done so? Possibly. But something about this just... no they didn't tell him to do that, but if ambers phone was dinging to let her know messages had come in and the school had called about the daughter not showing up, there are reasons he would have done those things. a master manipulator would have chosen a better lie to use wouldn't they? Something more believable and easier to defend than this insane ride. I don't fully believe he's telling the whole truth but... ugh...
@@Werewolfoverlord12 he didn’t need to know about it if it didn’t really happen. But even if he had that chemical in mind when he concocted his story, who’s so say he didn’t stumble across an article or something that mentioned it in his past and is one of those weird bits of information we retain for no specific reason? Just because he didn’t google it recently doesn’t mean he didn’t hear about it from somewhere else in the distant or not so distant past. He could of just said he was knocked out with something and lucked out that something like that actually existed but if I had to put money on it, he read or heard a story from China that involved that substance.
@@Werewolfoverlord12 i also think it's super bold to choose such a highly detailed story that he'd no doubt have to recall to police over and over to check for inconsistencies. Definitely not guilty beyond reasonable doubt imo.
@@nikoglaz If he's a skilled liar then it would be no problem. Especially if he made sure to get the story down all those weeks they were "missing".
@@gaaraxnaru yeah you definitely could be right; I've just always heard it's a fine line when it comes to law enforcement as retelling events perfectly every time is a red flag, as is changing important details with each retelling, so I imagine to get that balance right, confidently pass an FBI polygraph, and master the nuances of subconscious body language with an expert watching you would be extremely difficult haha.
The Lost Boy Larry theory I agree with most is that only the initial transmission came from Larry. The others were all kids playing cruel pranks. That still doesn't answer whether or not Larry was in any danger or even real in the first place.
I really doubt any Little Larry ever existed, no name has ever been putt to the broadcast and not bodies matching the scenario found. It's almost certainly a hoax.

The rescue team scavaged most of New Mexico though, wouldn't they have found him?
@@heat_wave5774 well, I’m starting to think that all these mysterious “411” vanishings and the like, and tragic stories like Larry’s show me that human beings have a terrible time actually countenancing the scale of the Earth we live on.

For the Lost Boy Larry mystery, it's scary how cruel people can be. Why would they want to slow down the investigation?

@@cithvalentine3260 OP was being sarcastic
@@cithvalentine3260 The abductor is the pen pal. You know…the person who wrote the note to him 🤦♀️
On the Amber Aiaz story, I'm pretty certain its Cheng. It literally sounds like the Jennifer Pan or Chris Watts story.
Why didn't the kidnappers used halothane on the two subjects when it was easier and less risky?
Why would the kidnappers demand for him to clean TWICE when it was easier to do it themselves when everyone is knocked out? Plus, polygraphs aren't really 100% and they don't really ascertain the truth, they mostly rely on manipulation and fear-inducing tactics.
1- who said they never used the halothane on the 2? They could've used it on Cheng, then when wife/daughter heard the commotion--a struggle could've ensued & then it was eventually used on them to get them out quietly as possible.
2- for the kidnappers to commit a crime, stay at the scene for hours is risky. The criminals wouldnt know if a neighbor had called the police or what...
@@childishgambino4845 the girlfriend wasn’t in the house at the time just the step daughter. In his story the girlfriend was driving home and never came home
If a polygraph can't be used to find someone guilty, it can't be used to declare someone innocent.
@@iamhereblossom1588 Correct. It's a useless test that potentially points the finger at innocent people, or exonerates the guilty.
His story beggars belief
The story about Lost Boy Larry reminds me of the unsolved case that originated the concept of the Amber alert. For a long time I thought Amber just meant 'orange' as in 'potential danger to a minor' - when I learned it was the name of a real girl who had gone missing and been found murdered, and whose killer was never caught or identified by authorities, it was genuinely a little heartbreaking.
i remember watching the movie on lifetime & finding that out, gut wrenching.
Code Adam came for Adam Walsh the son of John Walsh. It's a tragic story, but John Walsh used his pain to help a lot of other people.
@@Bad_Hombre_ADK summary?
@@lilatune Adam John Walsh (November 14, 1974 - July 27, 1981) was an American child who was abducted from a Sears department store at the Hollywood Mall in Hollywood, Florida on July 27, 1981. His severed head was found two weeks later in a drainage canal alongside Highway 60 / Yeehaw Junction in rural Indian River County, Florida. His death garnered national interest and was made into the 1983 television film Adam, seen by 38 million people in its original airing.[3] His father, John Walsh, became an advocate for victims of violent crimes and was the host of the television program America's Most Wanted and, later, In Pursuit with John Walsh.[4] Convicted serial killer Ottis Toole confessed to Adam's murder, but was never convicted of the crime because evidence was reportedly lost and Toole later recanted his confession. Toole died in prison of liver failure on September 15, 1996.[5] No new evidence has come to light since then, and police announced on December 16, 2008, that the Walsh case was closed and that they were satisfied that Toole was the killer.
@@lilatune he started a show called “americas most wanted” after his son was kidnapped. I think “code Adam” was a thing that stores would do when they found children wandering around in stores without their parents, after the story got famous.
The Larry case is heartbreaking. I wonder if someday in the future we’ll find a wrecked car with two skeletons and a broken radio out in the New Mexican sands.
Prank
I was thinking the exact same thing, I was half expecting the story to end with "But recently in 2022 there was a truck found crashed...."

I think Cheng had the perfect cover up for the first case. With that story, he was able to clean up all the evidence with an alibi. Also he was able to stall their disappearence for a week, making the case much more difficult to solve for the authorities, as well as giving himself time to come up with a perfectly crafted cover up. They simply had nothing to charge Cheng with. Even if FBI's lie tests had mixed results, it still would not have been a very strong case.
These lie detector tests and interrogations are perfect for criminals if the suspect was apperhanded quickly and they didn't have the time to cover all the holes in their stories. But then again, Cheng had all the time he needed to make sure his story held up.
You could say he waited a week to "get used to the idea" of them being missing.
I don't think so, the halothane thing is just too much of a coincidence, I think that the Chinese government has something to do with it, bcs it wouldn't be too surprising for the Chinese to do things like these
While I am leaning more towards him being guilty, it’s still odd that he showed police where all the evidence was. He could have easily claimed they left on their own or he could have left the country and easily got away with it.
Sorry but I'm genuinely shocked that anybody believes Cheng's story. He was knocked unconscious using a rare drug used by the military and awoke to a note telling him to hid all the evidence and not to contact the police. He surprisingly did so and then left home for a week before calling the police. He had defensive wounds on his body and was seen carrying two concealed boxes into a truck despite the fact there was still evidence to trace?
This following the reveal that she was actually financially poor and the only lead is a mysterious man outside the country from Cheng himself?
I made this point in my own comment but the story about the mist knocking him out is really similar to how the brother of Kim Jong Un was assassinated in a Malaysian airport in 2017. My feeling is he used that as inspiration for that part of his story as it would have been relatively close in the news.
Yes 100 percent agree, he must have done it
I mean that’s not the only drug that would knock or zombify someone. There’s quite a few plants and research chemicals. Ask anyone who’s overdosed on benzos or opiates (doses that would be enough for just a blow. I remember a guy on Reddit who tried taking a dose but got the whole lot blown in his face by a fan. Within 3 mins his messages were quite fucked). There’s also that well known South American plant that has a zombifying effect. It’s actually scarily common. Any solvent (eg petrol or lighter fluid) could do the trick. (After some processing. Not that I’ll say how but it’s not exactly hard for someone versed in chemistry)

The volunteers were 90% sure the calls were hoaxes but could never be really sure and that caused them a lot of pain. This reminds me of the Larry incident. Also Armistead Maurine’s “The Night Listener” tells a similar story where the caller was probably an adult woman pretending to be a young boy. So, yeah, I take the story with a grain of salt.
Yeah, people are capable of every sick thing imaginable
Cheng could indeed be a premeditated psycho. Especially if he had just found out that his significant other was not being honest about her finances. His story about the supposed abductors directing him to clean the crime scene twice; is way too suspicious. Furthermore, he was able to pass polygraph tests which may be an indication that he has no moral emotions. As most of know that polygraph exams monitor things such as blood pressure and other bodily reactions.
Cheng’s whole story is extremely dodgy and weird. Maybe HE drained all the money of her accounts before he murdered them.
@@D-me-dream-smp mmmm yeah.... this case makes me wonder if Cheung was planning to steal her business all along? She seemingly had more money than he did, and greed is eternal.
@@D-me-dream-smp if he had drained them right before or her or anyone else, it would be obvious through bank statements/credit card records. It was even stated that her business was on the brink of collapse. I still think they got in an argument and killed her. The defensive wound on his hand helps the claim, the coolers he moved and also the excuse to clean up the place twice.
That’s not how polygraphs work.
@@stevegoldstein3402 yeah, he'd have needed to be subtle about stealing her money, but... he'd had months to do it.
Lost Boy Larry's case is really frustrating to hear... This might be one example of how a single, most likely serious situation of a cry for help can just be easily ruined and falsified by other selfish and insensitive people.
For the first mystery, I wonder if any neighbors noticed any unidentified person(s) repeatedly coming over to slide the envelopes under Cheng's door.
Also, I know that many tests proved that Cheng was telling the truth, but why would he need storage boxes to clean the apartment?
@@MrSaurus to move the blood stained carpet he cut out without much suspicion i suppose
@@smegna7994 That's what I was thinking at first, but why not use garbage bags for that?
@Caleb OKAY Yes I was thinking that Cheng was involved in their disappearances. Regarding whoever took the girls, why would they leave Cheng at the house, when they could've taken him as well and not have to worry about him contacting the police?
@Caleb OKAY yeah there's a 0% chance he's telling the truth.
They just kidnapped them for a few days, no reason, you'll get em back soon
Also we just kidnapped them, no murder or anything, but also there's blood everywhere.
Cheung is probably guilty as psychopaths find it easy to beat polygraphs.
It's terrible to think Larry may well have been real and certainly not impossible. Anyone who was found to be hampering the search in any way should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
Innocent people fail polygraphs, it's complete junk science.
Yeah he is guilty as sin. IMO his story is too ridiculous. It doesn't make sense that the kidnappers would keep contacting him and not ask for anything. Why would they even bother to contact him at all if they had no reason to? Then they had the witnesses who saw him dragging large containers out of the building. He probably took them away and buried them. The daughters school would have eventually reported her missing most likely, if he hadn't gone to the police. So that is why he felt like he had to contact the cops with that story.
@@lanadelsultana I've failed one myself. A demonstrator came to my upper school in the 80s and several of us were given a test, asking basic questions like what we're our ages, hair colour, what town were we in. I failed all, and I was a very nervous child so that doesn't surprise me. The man giving the demonstration kept demanding that I "keep calm" which had the opposite effect.
Also, diagnosed psychopaths usually do not indicate deception, even though they may later confess or be found to have left dna at crime scenes or on victims. Polygraphs have never been admissible in court in my country because they are so unreliable.
@@NikkiC777 He contacted the school though.
@@lainiwakura1776 But at some point when the daughter didn't return to the school, the school would suspicious (unless he then went in and formally withdrew the daughter.)
Polygraph tests really should be outlawed at this point. I get that it's used as a tool to get information out of someone even though it's worthless. But in the end it just ends up hurting your case or getting false results. Too easy to pass or fail.
Yeah, the guilty use them to clear themselves of any suspicion in the public eye, and the police use them to try an establish probable cause to investigate somebody, even though there's proof to the contrary, that the polygraph does not detect lies.
It's complete bogus, but in the end just remember when it comes to a polygraph, or a field sobriety test, you are under no obligation to take one, and you legally cannot be punished for refusing. (That would be a violation of your civil rights, and of the 4th amendment, assuming you're an American.) These tests also can't be submitted to a court of law, and your refusal to take the tests also may not be admitted. This would violate your fifth amendment right, so that you don't incriminate yourself, to remain silent.
I mean, it was Cheng, right? I've watched enough videos of solved murders to know that murderers will often invent a suspect. And you said their relationship was intense and volatile.
The polygraph doesn't mean anything. Those things are hardly more accurate than a coin flip.
absolutely.
Yep
I remember when I was given a polygraph and failed 5 separate times when they asked me if I distributed drugs. I never have and admitted I’ve smoke mj less then 5 times in my life. Nope. Each time I was called a liar. It’s baffling how these things are taken seriously. .
Exactly. I'm sure it was just your nervousness that caused you to fail. And anyone would be nervous if they were being falsely accused of a major crime.
By the same token, people who have no moral compunctions can easily pass a polygraph. They're hardly better than a coin flip, and we should quit using them.
They might have controlled the polygraph to jail you. They need excuses yknow

@@jeepz669 but there was, don't let these kids fool you. The first call did come from a little kid asking for help then when it got massive attention the trolls came in
What a "coincidence" that Amber's kidnappers stopped communicating with Cheng as soon as he was put on surveillance by the cops.
Amber was so poor she had to move back to China, but, shortly afterward she has enough money to start a seafood business in Las Vegas?
Something weird about that.
Exactly what I thought.
How do you think she got that money? Maybe owning a seafood import business would make it easier to smuggle things and that's where she found her financers.
She either got involved with organized crime, or worse, the CCP.
In places like china, the families will combine all their money to help the American family member to achieve the American dream. That’s why he said with help from her family she moved back to the US. Once achieved, the American family member will send money back to them or bring family members over to the US and be their sponsor
She did change her name when she moved to the U.S.
Case 1- Assuming Cheng wasn't in on it, he waited too long to reach out to authorities. The authorities apparently covered all bases, but I find it hard to believe he wasn't involved or knew more than he told them. If he wasn't involved, Amber might have arranged for herself and her daughter to disappear.
Case 2- It's hard to tell if Larry was a hoax or not. So many things happened that complicated any potential hopes of rescue.
Think about this: How long does it take for a kid to get sick/die in a closed vehicle in regular weather? This kid was supposedly out in the desert heat, crying, for three days minimum. I'm not saying it was a hoax, but I am suggesting that it was something more than meets the eye.
@@o-mangaming5042 I’ve been wondering if the effects of dehydration and lack of food intake as well as the heat the kid was experiencing would make him disoriented. Maybe he was describing the place he was in wrong? :/ either way I kind of hope it was a hoax because that would be one of the most horrible ways to go
Here I'll help, 1st case CHENG did it.
2nd case hoax
@@potat19 They didn't narrow their search based on what he said. They used tech to narrow down where the signal was coming from.
Cheng did it.
Even police are certain in reality.
But he had enough time to cover his tracks perfectly.
State just didn't have anything to build a case on.
first things first, hoax or not, it's disgusting how so many people were trying to delay the search only to prank authorities.
second ... it is equally as sad that it needed a lesson like this for the new mexico search and rescue council to improve their methods instead of doing that by default.
and lastly, if this wasn't a hoax, this is probably the saddest and cruelest thing to happen for a little child that was trapped, terrified and on the verge of death.
imagine you'd lay in hospital with a serious injury and everyone would just make fun of you instead of helping, fuck all of these trolls srsly.
I think it was probably not real. A small child crying in a baking car for three to five days? Kids get heat stroke sitting in a closed car in 50 degree weather. That being said, I'm not sure if it was a hoax or possibly a drill to instill change in Search and Rescue tactics.
You act like people are supposed to have it all figured out before terrible things happen. Sometimes we only learn valuable lessons after terrible things happen and we learn from them and make improvement so that they aren't as likely to happen in the future. The very first cars ever invented didn't have airbags or safety glass in the windshield or seatbelts. It took people dying in car accidents for those safety features to be invented and made standard to help save lives.
@@tekbarrier yep, people sometimes forget that everything around them is done by other people and not omnipotent gods.

Humanity has yet so much to learn.
You're ridiculous.
@@tekbarrier most times we know what and how to improve, and just don’t,
So my question is why didn’t the kidnappers use the same spray on the girls like they did on him? Why fight two girls when you could spray them and not knock them out too? They kinda skipped that question.
And they didnt ask the neighbours if they saw people slip letters under the door or something
Well how they gonna carry two bodies out without being noticed?
@@dapeach6678 there’s ways as long they knocked out and not fighting

The David hoax during the search for Larry reminds me of the episode Radio Bart in The Simpsons, where Bart scams the whole Springfield to think his radio voice is "Timmy O'Toole", a little boy fallen in a well.
I love the B roll of "Asian man looking shocked" at 8:56
Stop scamming people!
You don't get that land, as you'd have to personally transfer it. And you don't get any title either!

Obviously you don't get to "own" the land.
It's just a charity benefiting nature preservation.
It's a scam.
So sad... Wanted to have a cool title like "Madam mister"
@@k.o.h3599 - it's a false charity, stationed in Hong Kong that pockets any donations you make, in exchange for a completely useless sheet of paper that is not legally recognized by the Scottish authorities.

I've heard the "Larry" story before, but I wonder -could the child have been mistaken about where he was ? If it was real (and not a hoax) could he have been somewhere besides New Mexico ?
It was obviously a hoax.

That first story is hilarious (tragic of course but also hilarious). The guy managed to make up a story that allowed him to blatantly clean up a murder scene, avoid contacting police, and do basically everything that the murderer would do, while at the same time, remaining consistent with his story of total innocence. I guess as long as the story stirs up more hostility against China, the cops will take it seriously no matter how ridiculous it is.
Hostile feelings are plenty warranted once you're aware of the atrocities against the Uighurs, and other political prisoners.
"If it was all an elaborate lie, police said, it had been so flawlessly memorized that it would have challenged the memory of a professional actor, much less a seemingly simple man."

Facts.
@@SS-pq9ci but it's not even a complicated story. In fact it's stupid as hell and full of logical gaps. It being consistent is meaningless.
Just for everyone’s information, buying a title is the biggest con.
You can’t simply buy a title by buying a small chunk of land., unfortunately that’s not the way it works.
A fancy certificate is all you are buying. And as for the “you can put this on your I.D, passport etc” legally you’d be Mr/Mrs Lord and then surname.
Stay safe and put your money towards something useful 👌
Edit. Read the small print on the website also... Land is for ‘souvenir’ purposes only and gives you no claim of the land meaning that you can’t actually do anything to it, no fences etc.. you can’t even plant a tree on it 😅
First Raycons (which have shit audio quality), now Established Titles being a scam from Hong Kong. Lazy needs to pick better sponsors.
@@JohnGardnerAlhadis I really don’t like the idea of content creators getting sponsored by products and saying it’s “a great item” just because they are being paid for it.

Imagine actually believing that there's a machine that can detect lies.
It detects your body's stress response when you lie.
@@dragonsky799 The problem there are the words "when you lie" and "stress"
It does neither.
What it actually does do is get people to admit to things.
@@ThunderChunky101 that's why it's not used as evidence it court, because the results of the best can be tampered pretty easily.
It asks mundane questions first to establish your norm or non stressed baseline response. Then it can see if a question related to a crime makes your responses go haywire. However if you're a psychopath who has no remorse I guess you might not be stressed or bothered about the crime but only about being caught.
40% of Americans think Trump is a great guy who never lies. People are stupid.

Minor point in the Lost Boy Larry story. Wing refers to the collective unit designation of all the members of the Civil Air Patrol in New Mexico. Wing being a unit size rather than a name. It would be more accurate to simply refer to it as the Civil Air Patrol or CAP.

The only "good thing" about these cases is that humanity improves their techniques as time passes. This makes it likelier that other innocent people don't suffer the same fates of our cruel world.

For the record, the company you're advertising at the beginning of the video is a scam. They have no recognized authority to declare you a Lord.

I believed you until i did my own research. The site clearly states "The titles “Laird, Lord or Lady of Glencoe and Lochaber” are trademarked titles under Highland Titles which allow us to use them within our community of followers around the world."
This is why reading is fundamental and if anyone lacks the ability to read & comprehend in their native tongue; then they should have someone assisting them with important purchases/agreements.
@@childishgambino4845 - I'm still researching Established Titles, but so far I don't see them having any association with Highland Titles.
Established Titles seems to be based out of Hong Kong, owned by a company called Galton Voysey (still looking into this part), and they don't appear to have a physical business address in Scotland (yet?). Whereas, Highland has been based in Scotland for nearly 14 years.

The first story is so interesting and I'm hoping to know more about it!
We should all just admit that lost boy larry was probably a hoax because his father was never reported missing, never was larry and all these years later no one has stumbled up9on a truck with a dead child and father. I am inclined to believe it was a child with some immature parents that knew CB's were damn near impossible to pinpoint and had a bone to pick with the system.

Yep, it's a scam. That's not how lordships work lol. Plus, although I'm not positive about countries that actually have lords and whatnot, in America, you can just add Lord or Princess or whatever you want to your name and use it on legal documents, no extra document needed (just pay to change your name).

@@winningsides7347 - From what I've researched so far, it appears Established Titles is more of a novelty souvenir purchase. You're basically buying a "fun" certificate.
- There's no physical business address in Scotland. The address on the site appears to be the land itself.
- It's owned by a company called Galton Voysey (still researching this bit) that's based in Hong Kong.
- It's stated on their site that your purchase is a personal dedication and souvenir.
NOTE: this isn't a bad thing, but when you watch promos, you're under the impression that the plot you donate to / buy is under your name somehow, and this might not be the case. you could very well be sharing that plot with someone else, like a timeshare.
- So far, I don't see any way you can visit the land if you decide to go to Scotland.
NOTE: this probably isn't a deal-breaker for some people, but one of the cool things about land conservation charity programs is that you can likely setup a way to tour the land. it's a great motivator to see the effort of these programs putting your money to good use.
- It was established in 2020. So it's going to have mixed reviews since it's relatively new.
So for me, Established Titles appears to be more of a company that might be taking advantage of the average person wanting to help protect land anywhere and everywhere they can. It's one of those situations where we really need to keep an eye out to see if they make actual progress with the land itself with the purchases people have already made.

How did Larry use the CB radio for 3 days straight? The car battery should have died in that time. If you leave your lights on for more then a few hours it totally drains the battery. I'm also wondering how the signal traveled all over Arizona and possibly into other states? Most CB transmissions only go a few miles.
Those thoughts have always crossed my mind.
Did you not watch the video? It was explained how the signal was boosted.
No need for such an aggressive response. Yes watched video also grew up with a dad that fiddled with cb radios even with the signal being boosted they don't go that far. Hope your days gets better so you aren't so negative to basic innocent questions.

Cheng sounds like he made up an elaborate story to cover up his murders.
I feel like Cheng "feared the worse" because he did that shit lol.
Considering the car was never found it seems like the obvious take is that the entire thing was a hoax. My guess, though of course it's just speculation, is that the initial call that the woman reported on was something like a prank call, the boys might have even known her. Because it got published in the newspaper, and it was a gripping story, it spread all over and sadly to many people who would pretend to be the boy as well. I was thinking the end of the story would be that they found the car turned over or something like that, but once I got to the end I felt like it almost certainly was a hoax carried out by many people that were not connected
The woman who first reported it lived in Southern California (Fontana is near San Bernardino). If it was a hoax done by boys who knew her, how could they cause their own CB signal to originate hundreds of miles away in New Mexico?
@@tekbarrier I just said might have known her, I don't think it's likely though. I don't know much about CB radio , how does one know the location of a given signal? Like is there a way to tell direction, and distance and from there is an estimation? Or just like estimated based on signal strength at a given frequency or something like that?
@@farcenter CB radios normally have very short distances-like 5 miles on average, although there are a lot of variables. Even with the variables, it wouldn't be possible for a CB signal to travel hundreds of miles (other than the proposed weather/sun anomaly.)
Perfect timing! I love these types of videos ❤️
I think the Lost Boy Larry case was an inspiration behind the classic Simpsons episode Radio Bart which saw anchorman Kent Brockman's big debut because of Bart's prank that ended with him up trapped down a well.
The Radio Bart episode was based on the 1951 film Ace in the Hole, which sees the story of a down-and-out journalist exploiting a story about a man trapped in a cave to re-jump start his career.
@@SteveEchelonanon neat
Fairly certain the episode was inspired by Baby Jessica.

For the first story, how come Amber’s blood was found in her house/apartment if she apparently vanished before ever returning home?
yo lazy you know those "become a lord by owning land" sites are a scam right?
Wait the FBI says they seek two people connected with the first case with a black Cadillac, how could Cheng have known about their car if they knocked him out in their apartment? How could he have provided that in testimony unless there is a witness to the pair around the apartment who corroborated? Maybe the police have more evidence than they are willing to share at the moment?
Huh?
@@maxdurk4624 Look up the FBI flier of the missing people. It mentions the abductors are possibly related to a black cadillac. I was wondering how Cheng would know that if he never saw them before being doused and that he only had contact with them via letters. If Cheng said that during interrogation, it would be brought up as a discrepancy in his story, would it not? And nowhere in the story is it mentioned Cheng saw them drive off out of a window at any point. That could indicate they have more evidence to Chengs story that they are not sharing for investigative reasons or another witness.
@@ArchLars I assume he could claim he saw the car out the window when he went to answer the door? It doesn't have to be after he woke up...
@@maxdurk4624 Actually, I have now found a source that states the police has said the black Cadillac connection doesn't come from Cheng at all, it comes from others in the apartment complex, which is all that is said about it. The FBI flier also mentions that the two abductors were seen in the _vicinity_ of the complex. The wording seems to suggest outside of the residency before or after the crime, but I may be wrong there. However, this pretty much confirms there are other witnesses to these people, or at least their car. Essentially it means they confirmed the details of them as well provided by Cheng, who saw them briefly before being incapacitated, but the descriptions of them both are extremely detailed in the FBI flier. Going as far as approximate weight in pounds for one of them. If he was lying about being incapacitated, would he really pretend to know a huge amount of details about his fake kidnappers? From other such liars, no, they usually claim they didnt see anything about them or keep details as light as possible, as to not arouse suspicion and add hard details to their story. I think his initial description must have been very light, if he was made incapacitated or not. So it is very plausible they added descriptions of them too. I do not think Cheng is lying that these two people were at the residency when he said they were, or that they exist at all. This raises some questions.
The police said "we have reasons to believe this was a kidnapping", so what reasons? We do not know for sure, but it may have something to do with the witnesses and their testimony which is mostly unknown to us now for some reason. It is for this reason and others that I do not think Cheng is cleared as a suspect, and neither do I think the police has him cleared, even if the two people did arrive at his residency and did facilitate the kidnapping. The most fantastical element of the story is the drugging of Cheng, and as such it is probable that its made up. I think Cheng may have been involved with their kidnapping, and when they found out the wife had no money, he got in hot waters with whoever these people are in employ to, which is why he decided to concoct this story in order to distance himself from the kidnapping and get protection which he may have from the police. This matches his behavior, another detail never mentioned in the retellings of this true crime because its hidden behind a paywall of the LA Times. When he called the police they mentioned he sounded nervous and paranoid about people watching him, and when he arrived at the Police Department to report the crime, he literally asked them if he could _stay at the police station_ for the night. Feeling more secure around police officers than going back to his apartment for the evening. Seeing the police as saviors or security, that is not guilt behavior, unless he is guilty but also afraid of who he did this with.
This is a fantastical theory, but I think it could be possible.
@@ArchLars You are making a lot of assumptions that we just don't know.
these videos are scary but your voice is like a barrier stopping all the nightmares i would get. so calming..
Thank you- Lazy Masquerade!!!!
On the second story, I don't know what the odds are but literally moments before I turned on this video, I was reminiscing about how I used to ride in my dad's truck with him while he was hauling logs. I guess I rode with him several times through my life but I remember riding with him a lot when I was right around that age - and I remember him having a breakdown on a steep hill around that time but he managed to coast on over it and get pulled over. Granted, this would have been the early 90's and here in Arkansas. But I was an ornery kid and it would have been just like me to get on my dad's CB while he was out and say something crazy - not saying that's what was up with the Larry kid - but I would have done something like that not realizing it could get things stirred up and concern people. Just spontaneously I mean - I wouldn't have done something like that knowing there was something else happening. I don't think I could have kept up an act of that nature or for that long and I certainly would have never lied about something happening to my family - and I don't think many kids _that_ young could or would either - maybe some older kids though.
😱 cor what shocking stories, another outstanding video thanks lord lazy🖤
The Larry/David story reminds me of the Simpsons episode when Bart Pranks the community by saying he’s “Timmy” who fell down the well…….
24:10 the correct saying is “Safety regulations are written in blood”
Another really interesting one. I hadn't heard any of these cases and the Larry case gave me chills thinking about how it would feel to discover that. Amazing work Sam Ryder (or Rider) for the script too.
The first story doesn't make sense to me at all for multiple reasons.
1. Why would you wait weeks on end to call authorities without even so much as a ransom note, the supposed kidnappers never told Cheng what they wanted with the girls in the first place, just that they'd be back if he "cleans up and waits".
2. Nobody saw anyone drop these ominous notes at his apartment all the time?
3. Hello??? He was literally seen pulling large containers/coolers out of his apartment. What for? Why would the kidnappers want him to get rid of those? He could've told police where he brought them if there was nothing in them.
4. "The police wouldn't have known about their disappearance if Cheng hadn't reported it" They would've eventually. He couldn't pose as her to clients forever, he couldn't pretend the stepdaughter was sick and unable to attend school forever. So the logical step is to report them missing himself, but he needed the time to spin this fantastical tale of a kidnapping and to remove any evidence that would've pointed to him.
At last, I am blessed with another video from Scottish Lord Lazy 😁😉
It's a scam look it up shocking company stay clear
Larry is clearly a hoax. You're telling me they spent all that time searching, found nothing... ever? After all these years? over 4 decades and that truck is still out there overturned and was NEVER stumbled upon?
Whoever did do that prank, more power to them cus of the system put in place that now saves REAL lives.
I don't know, man. The world is absolutely huge and people go missing everyday never to be seen again. If they got into a crash and into a good enough spot it's possible they could never be found.
I think initially it was real but turned to cruel pranks.
@@Graves933 They were never reported missing though. Not 1 person reported anyone that even remotely could be them. Maybe they just weren't missed by anyone, maybe no Family, maybe no job, no friends, no school, no neighbors, etc.. It COULD happen but that's A LOT of maybes
@@Graves933 I like this reply because it IS surely possible that the site was never discovered. But those odds are so low and get lower with time, and it’s been a long time. And a mystery this big - nationwide attention with specific details; a kid, a man, an overturned pickup truck, New Mexico, 40 years. There’s a slither of a chance, but my logic just fights it so hard.
@@fairladykd6734 A lot of people go missing and no one makes reports, there are cases where people assumed their family was roughing it along the states when they were dead for years. Maybe there IS missing people reports out there that we donr know of, maybe they went missing in neighboring states ? Maybe they weren't even from the states and were just visiting, we have no information like that
@@gid-and-friends I honestly don't know what could have happened, i do agree however it is very unlikely in 40 years there wasn't a sliver of evidence found. No truck, No bodies, No supposed missing person reports, ect.
If it is a hoax, would they ever fess up to it? The statutes of limitations is surely up by now especially if they were merely a child when it happened. Did they ever tell someone about the supposed prank? Would they come forward?
Were they from out of state ? Out of country? Was the signal 100% certainly from that area with no doubt? Even if it's a slight doubt, then it could have came from anywhere if it's not certain.
There are way too many factors in play, I don't know new Mexico well but where I live it's dense forest for hours upon hours.
If someone went missing in that terrarain but the size of the state it would be so difficult to find any evidence if any at all.
With genealogy testing, a lot of Jane and John does are getting their names back.
Maybe one of these days we might find Larry and his dad, or find out it was just a very good hoax.
Lazy Masquerade is an established title among my personal favorite media digestinals haha
