If you're interested in true crime stories, then be sure to watch this follow-up interview with Anthony Templet. This interview is a fascinating look into the mind of an abused child who had to make a terrible decision to defend himself and is sure to leave a lasting impression on you.
Literally absolutely cried like a baby the entire last episode of the show. The finally being able to show emotion because Anthony is free to without control, was overwhelming. So so glad he’s doing so much better ❤
That was the moment I cried. Finally being able to show emotion because he had to be detached to survive the abuse. I hope he is able to build a good life for himself. He has been given a second chance.
Same! I just watched it again and still 😭
Same
I feel like listening to Anthony , he is really articulating and navigating philosophizing really amazingly well considering he experienced isolation for so much of his young life. If I could just speak to him I’d say you are inspiring and keep up the good work, it’s difficult what you’re doing but you are worth the effort
Hes so handsome!...🤩..I hope he's okey
the last episode when anthony cried for the first time had me crying like a baby!! i'm sure it took a long time to finally feel safe enough to be vulnerable in that way. sending so much love to him. i am so thankful he was given another chance at life. ❤ well deserved.
and jarrett, you really did the damn thing!! your support and effort shows so much of who you are and how you love people. wishing you a lifetime of blessings.
Jarrett might be one of the most impressive lawyers I've ever seen. Bless him.
Dear Jarrett,
I’m at a loss of words to express my admiration for your commitment & dedication in helping Anthony achieve his freedom
You were absolutely right
He was hopeless & helpless since he was born
May God bless both of you and your families 🙏❤️🙏
It's nice to see his nervous ticks are gone. I recognize those ticks the eye blinking was in place of crying and touching his face and wrenching his hands. It takes many years of feeling safe to stop those actions.
He still has a hard time with eye to eye contact. Which is indicative of abuse.
The mutual respect between these two is so heartwarming ❤
This is literally what I and my heart needed after just binge watching the Netflix show over the last four hours! I've balled my eyes out!! Firstly, who knew Jarrett was built like a brick s**t house?! Second, it is AWESOME to see you both together again. And most importantly, Anthony, your confidence and personality are finally shining through, look at you!! You're smiling! 💕 Keep going forward, you brave and beautiful boy! Massive amounts of love to you from this mum in the UK! X
Lol 😂 yesssss I UGLY CRIED!!!! And YESSSSS 🙌 about Jarret. 🤣 me and my aunt was like OMG 😱 😳 😬 🔥 but yes I am very happy for Anthony! I can’t wait to see how far he goes! He can literally do anything he wants to do in life!!! ❤❤❤❤
Because netflix is known for its unbiased and unedited opinions 😂😂😂
Loved to see Anthony's smile.
Netflix brought me here! I pray nothing but the best for you Anthony. 🙏🏾 Go for the stars man, you're free! Take full advantage of it
I totally agree! 🙏🏽💫
Well said ❤
This is just a testament for us single MOMs that sometimes its better to keep away our kids from deadbeat dads. Not all dads deserver a place around their kids. If your kids are rejected or witness violence towards the mom, its time to keep them away from these type of men. Protect your kids mental health, even from FAMILY.
Totally agree
I get your point but he was not raised or affected by a single mom. His mother and father were his biological parents. She brought her kids from a previous marriage into this situation and they were not harmed at all. His father went on to marry another woman when he was very young, so yes, he had a stepmother, but no single mom affected his life.
What an idiotic comment
Just watched the show.I cannot express how much i wish Anthony a beautiful, fulfilling and absolutely normal life. Jarret, you are amazing. Lots of love from Romania❤
I just watched the Netflix series. I cried myself out when you guys got out from court, and walked away free. I’m so glad, Jarret, you’re still in Antony’s life. Thank you for your beautiful heart ❤ Kisses from Brazil to you guys! Both of you deserve the best in life🙏🙌🏼
I just watched this documentary and am totally blown away by this attorney and what he did for Anthony. I wanted to reach through my screen to hug Anthony so many times. Anthony, I hope and pray you lead the life you were always meant to lead and find happiness. God bless you both!
I'm here right after watching the netflix's docuseries and still in teary eyes. Your violent father and unforgivable childhood with him will never define you as a person. Stay happy and kind, Anthony. Take care!
🫶 🇵🇭
Mr.Ambeau- your own story was brief but compelling. You are extraordinary. Good luck to Anthony!
Two incredible humans. Anthony, I can't tell you how much I wish you the best of life and love my man. You are an inspiration to so many, I'm sure of that. The series was absolutely heartbreaking, and I'm so happy to see you thriving. Stay strong. Mr Ambeau, you are an incredibly humble and sincere person, he is so lucky he had and has you in his life man. God bless ya both.
Just so amazing to see him come out of his shell so much, a massive change in his confidence, demeanour and personality. So great to see the past trauma fading over time mentally for him. Routing for you Anthony!
I just wanted to give him a hug all throughout the entire series ❤ you are strong❤❤❤
Dr. what a great, great human being is this lawyer! God bless you for all you love and kindness ... For Anthony, we want to see him happy.
Anthony your lawyer is a blessing keep god in your heart. ❤️🙏
Hi, my name is Michael McKee. This is my sons account. I just wanted to say it’s nice to see that you continue to be doing well. However, I’m a therapist and I do have some concerns take it for what it is because you are your own man. What I see is that you are still shutting down and pushing people out of your life because it’s too hard to deal with some of the memories and traumas that you’ve experienced. Therapy, and as you said, the right therapist will help with that and so I would encourage you to keep looking for the right therapist. We all are extremely proud of you and very few people think of you in a negative manner even though I know sometimes that’s not what you believe. Hang in there and keep fighting for yourself and know that your attorney has your best interest in mind at all times. It’s OK to not be the type of person who likes to talk all the time, but it’s not OK to shut the world out around you and I know you got used to that for a lot of years. Take good care of yourself always and know we are all routing for you and can’t wait to see you kick ass in life!
Omgggggg absolutely the best documentary ever!!! Jarrod Ambeau is so amazing please never give up on Anthony Templet!!! Anthony Templet you can do this... Anthony you are loved! ❤
Yes❤❤❤❤❤
So glad you are doing well Anthony! My heart broke for you watching the documentary. I am so glad you found Mr. Ambeau to help you with that time, my hope in humanity restored. Hope you have a good life! Take good care.
What a phenomenal young man Anthony is! He has gone through so much in his life and i hope he can have a good life. Look how relaxed, open and trusting he is in this! That is huge ❤ sending best wishes all the way from Scotland 🏴🏴
Jarret is proof is proof that sometimes a complete stranger can accept and love you than an entire family. Anthony God bless you and keep looking forward. Remember it’s ok to keep people out of your life that create drama
I just watched it on Netflix!!!! MAD RESPECT TO ANTHONY!!! You got this young man!!❤❤
Jarrett Ambeau is perhaps one of the best attorneys I’ve ever seen. The fact he created a mock trial to self correct any potential deficiencies in Anthony’s defense is just incredible. And it worked. This man literally saved Anthony’s life. I really enjoyed the Netflix documentary and wish Anthony only the best. I’m glad I wasn’t the only person crying like a baby at the end ❤
Thank you, Mr.Ambeau, for the update. I just saw the Docuseries and Anthony it is great to see you. You look wonderful and seem like you're doing alot better. I thought towards the end, "beautiful baby boy, you're are going to be just great despite if all that you went through". You can't take away the inate goodness in someone even after going through such harshness. You Anthony are proof of that statement. GB you and everyone that has been with you through the years. God bless your mom, grandma, aunt and siblings❤ Oh and btw, enjoy your youth. Live, learn, learn, learn alot and love. You are so smart. I saw that in the Docu. Maybe something in Software Engineering/Video Game Developer...
Both so inspiring. Jarrett- so much respect for how you mentor him in such a non-judgmental way. Anthony, you are here for a reason and you have so much to offer this world. You are so correct in saying it is best to surround yourself with positive people . I know you will grow to allow yourself to be more in touch with your emotions, but it takes time ❤️
Thank you Jarrett for what your did and continue to do. I wish I had someone like you in my life. I went through a lot of abuse growing up and still deal with a lot. I hope I meet someone like you in my life
This Anthony guy is unbelievably strong for the way he is turning his horrible situation around, I wish I could be his friend and I really hope he is loved ❤
I am rooting for Anthony with my whole heart. ❤
Jarret - Amazing work!
Just finished watching the documentary and it was quite good. Glad t to see Anthony hanging in there. Any subject that’s challenging you , just keep at it and ask for help. It’s just helping your brain to grow until it stops at about age 25. Sorry to hear you’re not in touch with your mother and grandmother. They had so many pictures of you before the age of five that showed you were happy , loved and cared for by them. Well maybe one day after you have finished taking care of your priorities. You were so fortunate to have had Ambeau as your attorney, what a blessing! Keep up the good work. Blessings to you.
Praying for this young man. I hope people are helping him. I can’t imagine how lost he felt or may still feel. I am sorry for what he went through and am sending prayers his way. God can do this. Thank you for uploading this interview. I was really worried about him after watching the documentary. He seems very resilient. So glad you have been so supportive as an attorney and friend. 🙏 Sending his mom and other relatives prayers too.
Anthony deserves nothing but a life of health, wealth, fulfilment and love ❤
Thanks so much for another update! Anthony seems to be doing well. He looks so much older now. Please keep doing these follow up chats ❤
Anthony is a brotha fr. Life has handed him lemons time and time again and this man has made lemonade, lemon meringue pie and lemon cake😭! We all go through things but he has turned his life around and I love that for him! Keep going my boy! Just stay alive and stay on top!
Absolutely fantastic series & wonderful to see Anthony free & getting on with his life & lovely to see a follow up 💙 I cried like a baby at the end & I reckon everyone as a Mother wanted to just wrap him up & cuddle him when he cried 😥 Good luck in your life Anthony, you deserve to be happy & healthy & free of all negativity 🙋🏽♂️
I love the relationship you've developed. You're both so inspiring. I feel for Anthony and I hope the future is amazing for him. I'm glad about his education. Anthony has a great future ❤
I hear you in ways that many don't understand unless they've experienced it. College saved me socially. Therapy saved me from myself. You're young and been though alot and then some. It takes time. I support and want the best for you. Take care of yourself and surround yourself with loving and healthy people. Set boundaries. There's nothing more detrimental than losing yourself while trying to find yourself. ❤
Just watched the Netflix show. I am so touched. So thankful for the people who rose up to support you. I relate to your pain thru experiences of my own & with my son & our abuser. Praying Praying Praying for you & your future.
I just watched the documentary on Netflix and I was very happy, both for your work in Anthony's defense and for the prosecutors' understanding, for the sensitivity of recognizing that Anthony suffered domestic violence. Anthony can start to be happy now
Jarrett, you are the best! Just stumbled the documentary at netflix and I loved it. I cried for Anthony! I hope you could help more abused people and be blessed. 🙏🙏🙏
I love how you talk to him like he’s really important to you. You can tell you really want what’s best for him.
The more I watched I just saw so much of the boys in my family in him. He needs some time to really grow into himself and to really experience the world I think. I think he’s much more sensitive than he may come across to a lot of people.
He is so lucky to have you Jarrett, i love your subtle suggestions after asking questions. Anthony's progress so far is miraculous i really believe..if anything, he's just still young (his growth was stunted for soooo long in sooo many ways) and just doesn't know what he doesnt know yet, i think it'll come with time. Hopefully his education continues to open his mind as well, could not wish for more success for him✌️❤️.
I am so happy that Anthony is doing well. I do think, especially having lived such a sheltered life as he did, and after seeing this interview, that he would benefit greatly from something like road trips, seeing nature, going to national parks and seeing all the beauty and wonder that is out there. Nature has been healing for me before and I think it could be for him as well. I think he needs to feel STRONG emotions, like a shock to his system that makes him want to push for more and provides him with a sense of ambition. He mentioned he is spiritual, and I think seeing the beauty that is out there could be cathartic for him, given his spirituality, and be a gateway for him to improve his outlook on life, all aspects of life, greatly. This is also something that doesn’t necessarily require a lot of money. I wish him the very best! He deserves it.
So glad he got to finally live ❤ I cried so hard after watching his story 😢Thank God for you Saving his life 🙏🏻
Hey Jarrett I loved how you conducted the questions. God bless you and Anthony. 😍😍
Just watched the netflix doco and had to google you Anthony to see where you're at today, and up popped this chat.
You have come such a long way Anthony. Massive well done to you. You are one amazingly strong individual.
Jarrett your work is phenomenal. You are a great man ❤
The documentary was amazing and it absolutely broke me seeing him cry at the end. You could tell the whole time that he suffered from social skills and with his education and the way he was taught and brought up that he really didn’t know any other resolve to the situation then what he had to do to his father. Im just glad you were there to help the justice system see that too. And I think it’s important for him to remain unemployed if that’s what he wants. He needs to have a chance to live his life and have somewhat of an experience of what his childhood could have been. From being so deprived then thrown in jail to immediately working right after must have been more of a burden on him then to take the time to heal and recover and live a life he’s never been able to. So glad to see Al the good that has come out of this story.
Anthony is a real genuine guy….. and he didn’t stay in contact w any of those others that at the end of the day cared about themselves only….. lawyer was the only person that helped him!!!
I think his mom might have cared but at the age that he is now that emotional connection was not there because they didn't get to strengthen it. At the end, whether we want to accept it or not, he is a sociopath. I cant blame him for it, i mean, his upbringing made him who he is NOW. He said it: he chooses who he has feelings for and who not for. He is able to act like nothing happened in order to move on. I think under supervision he can live well life, but he will require monitoring. He doesn't really have ambition to improve in life, at least that's my thoughts after seeing this interview.
@WendyHernandez-tz1pr I believe is extreme antisocial behaviors do align with a sociopath diagnosis however I don't believe he is without a conscious. I believe he knows right from wrong and he doesn't go out of his way to hurt to people on purpose. A sociopath will hurt people or animals physically just because they want to and not see the wrong in it and/or just not care they've done it.
I totally agree with you. I am a mental health nurse and he lacks empathy. Which isn’t his fault because he’s a product of his environment. He will never be what we would consider a normal person in society, emotionally healthy: He definitely lacks healthy emotional responses to situations that require someone to feel emphatic or sympathetic towards others. But at least he acknowledges he doesn’t really feel emotions, he said he is numb to emotions. Which in turn is very sad because that does make him more that of a sociopath. And he also doesn’t want to work on himself to try and become someone with compassion. Hopefully he can live a life of what he considers peaceful. Without intense therapy of self awareness and awareness of how others feel, which is having empathy for other people, he will go through life feeling numb and never having the real feeling of joy. He doesn’t seem to want to try and achieve a higher level of emotions for himself or anyone else. He will live in the trauma phase for the rest of his life unless he seeks help for how to grow emotionally within himself. He doesn’t seem interested in becoming emotionally stable and being able to feel happiness for others or even feeling thankfulness for others. His dad is an awful human for what he did to this young man. We can just pray God touches his soul at some point for him to want to reach a healthy emotional bond with himself and others. This was very sad to watch because he seems unbothered that he had no attachment with his own emotion of feeling happiness. I hope one day he’s able to connect with others on a deeper level emotionally.
@WendyHernandez-tz1pr Wendy, I couldn't AGREE with you MORE!!!! ZERO AMBITION, HE THINKS EVERYTHING SHOULD BE HANDED TO HIM!!! I BLAME HIM NOT HIS STEPMOM OR HIS BIOLOGICAL MOTHER!! THEY WERE ALL THEY FOR HIM WHEN HE WAS GOING THROUGH THE COURT SYSTEM!!! HE RUBS ME THE WRONG WAY...HE DOESN'T WANT TO WORK SMH IF HE ONLY KNEW WHAT HARD WORK WAS....HE HAS TONS OF MATURING TO DO...LETS HOPE IT'S NOT TOO LATE!
I think his birth mother a grandmother truly care for him.
Just finished the documentary and from the beginning I knew there was a reason for that reaction. Anthony I’m sorry you went through what your dad did but I’m glad you’re on the right track to be happy. Healing takes a lifetime but it’s worth it! I’m glad you have the support to help you. Mad love ❤️
Imagine a child dealing with abuse for so long. Thank God people cared and saved his life.
Just seen this and immediately got online to figure out how he is.You can see he is feeling more comfortable with himself which is great to see it’s still a journey and that’s ok.All the best to you Anthony.He also seems to have a good mentor in this lawyer.
Thank you for the update date! You have done so much for Anthony he needed your support. No one understands unless they had been through that your life and Anthony’s life. Good luck for you both. 🙏❤️🙏
Im so happy to see this man is doing well, I cried for him at the end of that documentary. My heart ached for him I just wanted to find him and give him a hug. I'm so glad that his life has a sense of normalcy, THANK YOU LORD❤️🙌🏾🙏🏾
Math is the hardest and never in my life have I used the Pythagorean theorem when trying to select the best repayment plan for a loan. Two incredible men. My heart goes out to everyone in the documentary. I lost it when he started crying but I’m glad he’s obviously processing it. Love these two ❤
Thank you Jarret for this interview. I was straight up looking for Anthony after completed ‘I Just K my Dad’, and here I am . Felt so mych relieved to see you Anthony. What a proud moment. You totally normal dude ahahah. You gonna be successful and happy for sure 🎉
I’m so happy to see Anthony is doing well 😢 I wish you the best in life
Anthony is Lucky to have you sir🙌🏼🙌🏼 Glad he's doing great ❤
God has assigned you Jarrett to help Anthony live life! I hope we have more of you in this world.
Anthony likes to go and do what he wants to do, considering his limited experiences growing up, I can understand that! I was glad to see some emotion near the end of the documentary, I cannot highly enough recommend EFT and EMDR therapies that can let him face, feel, and purge his past, and move on with less problems. I am curious about what he did at home all those years, and if he learned reading and writing through the use of the Internet. Glad to see he is looking like he is doing so well. Enjoyed this interview. Well done.
Just watched this! Broke my heart. God Bless you for helping him.
Therapy should have been a court order with his sentence. Maybe even a stay in a clinic. You can see through the whole documentation how damaged he is, and in my eyes he still is. They way he speaks about work, his family, therapy..., shows, how much he still has to work on himself. But if he refuses therapeutic help, it's gonna be a lot harder and longer way. People here who thinking his authistic are wrong. He is just still so traumatized and didn't really worked on his trauma. But Jarrett Ambeau, you are an excellent attorney and a wonderful man.
Yeah. This is where they got wrong. Therapy is his only saving grace. And since the lawyer knows a good therapist, that would be so good for him.
Great work Jarret. Please continue to do the good work and help more people like Anthony❤
You are BOTH such amazing souls. Despite Anthony's terrible upbringing and what happened , you were destined to meet. I feel such a bond between you. More than brothers. My father had a grade 6 education. He grew up abused and was beaten every day until he ran away, worked as dishwasher and then and joined the navy. Fast forward he became a very successful man. Used to make his own cryptic crosswords . One made the New York Times back in the 70s. Anthony deserves love , encouragement and peace and he shall achieve everything . God bless to you both from Canada.🇨🇦
Jarrett
you are a BEAUTIFUL caring SOUL!!!! You have a LIGHT that SHINES so BRIGHT!!! You are ANTHONY’S SAFE PERSON,and he isn’t pushing you away!!!! ❤️❤️❤️Thank you!!!!
The DOCUMENTARY ended the way I am sure EVERYONE hoped it would!!! This makes MY HEART HAPPY!!!!
A huge CONGRATULATIONS to ANTHONY on doing so well on his school,and SOCIAL SKILLS!!! You got this ANTHONY!!! So PROUD of YOU!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
HUGS TO YOU BOTH!! 🤗🤗🤗
God bless you, Jarrett and Anthony. I’m so happy that Anthony is free to live and be in control of his own life ❤🙏
Compliments on helping this young man -- really impressed with the compassion you display and the intelligence and intuition in approaching the case and resolution of it. I hope he continues to get guidance as he has much ground to gain. Essentially you rescued a child, who hadn't learned how to deal with life, with people, with being a part of society. Maybe a trade school would be helpful, lots of high-paying jobs without college - lots of people graduating college today that can't find a job to support them well.
❤ So great to see him again. He looked so broken the last episode on Netflix. I pray for his protection. I hope more caring people will be in his life like this lawyer. I hope Anthony will be patient and kind to himself. He has been through so much. May the rest of your life be better for you.
Anthony & Mr. Ambeau - thank you for sharing this story.
Anthony - I am so grateful that you escaped such a horrible situation. Seems that you are doing well.
God bless you both! ❤❤
People are saying he's doing well; it seems like he went from one extreme to another.... he does have to go through the development things he wasn't allowed to. He seems that he may feel a bit superior to others as in " on my level "
I would like to see an update in 5 years. He is going through a the things he wasn't allowed to in development. He seems emotionally like a teenager who thinks he knows more than most. He has been through alot but... its a big but, he remind me very much of an arrogant teenager. He was never allowed to be that so it makes complete logical sense that he will move through the mindsets that we all did. He may be 22-25. His demeanor to me seems similar to 13-16. Any one think this applies?
i think this is a very important step . his childhood and half the youth were taken from him. its part of the process getting happy and healthy. he does a good jo, and has great help in his attorney.
@kellygarcia32 exactly you are spot on!!! He's also an ingrate!!! He doesn't speak with his family in TX or his stepmother & stepbrother whom were there for him!!! He's quite LAZY LIVING OFF HIS HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF $$$$$ FROM PEOPLE THAT WORK THEIR "SHITTY ASS JOBS"... MY GOD HE'S WHAT, 22 YRS OLD IF THAT AND HE THINKS HE'S BEEN WORKING TOO LONG AND HE'S SICK OF IT!!! SMFH THIS GUY HAS ZERO CLUE WHAT WORK IS!!! I HOPE PEOPLE STOP GIVING THIS LAZY, INGRATE MONEY....IF THEY WANT TO DONATE THEY SHOULD GIVE THEIR MONEY TO OUR HOMELESS VETS!! JARRETT ISN'T DOING HIM ANY FAVORS BY KISSING HIS ASS...HE SHOULD BE SAYING "ANYHONY YOU'RE ONLY IN YOUR TWENTIES...EVERYONE HAS TO WORK, 99.9999% OF PEOPLE DON'T HAVE MILLIONS ON A GO FUND ME"!!!!! #STOPGIVINGTHISLAZYINGRATEMONEY
I do agree with this but I think it's all part of learning and growth and becoming a mature person, he didn't get chance to go through this at what we would usually consider a "normal" age I'd say 14-16 so it does make sense, he has made extraordinary progress even since the last update Jarrett posted where he was constantly nervous ticking still and struggling to smile even when you could tell he wanted to, these things will take a long time but he will get there with a good mentor like Jarrett asking him the questions to make him think "but what if we look at it from this perspective...", hopefully he will have a long, peaceful and happy life
I agree.... I wish that he would communicate with his mother and family. They've all experienced the same Trauma... He also needs a better Therapist it seems but I hope and pray for his Success and I hope that his attorney continues to be a great mentor for him. I hope that in his Relationships that he doesn't repeat the Trauma and Replicate what his Dad did to him and his Mom to whomever he gets in a Relationship with.... Prayers for Everyone 💯
Continued prayer to you Anthony! Keep going, you’re doing great!
I just watched the Netflix series and it ripped me to shreds. God bless you Anthony for just surviving. Thank God for Jarrett and his ability to defend.
So happy to hear he is doing well 💕 My heart goes out to him and anyone else who has been through this ❤️
Thank you both for the update ❤ Thank you for sharing your stories. God Bless!
I just watched the documentary for the first time. I was married to a control freak and had very similar experiences years ago with the father of my two sons and the distress continued throughout many years with their father. I am so proud of you Anthony and the man you have become. You have such a bright future ahead of you. Live your life to the fullest. And to be able to get an attorney that could understand and relate to the situation you endured for most of your childhood and went above and beyond to get to the truth of the whole situation and give his all is definitely a "one of a kind " of attorney. He is a person who you can trust and confide in which is so important. Almost a father figure and cares deeply about you and your future is definitely a great relationship to build on. You both are very inspiring people. Keep up the great work you both do.❤❤❤
“I like being unemployed”. Lmaooooo I get that!!!!! I’m currently unemployed and loving it lmaoooo
Anthony im so proud of you. I hope u find the love, comfort and peace you deserve. Jarret your the best! Thank you for helping Anthony and what you continue to do! Your both amazing souls!
I just randomly watched this documentary last night and googled his name and found this interview and it’s nice to see that he is doing well 💕
Anthony-you are an important life-and a really special example to many of us with histories of “hard things”. Resilience. Tenacity. Healthy boundaries. True to self. Willingness to learn and grow. Overcoming obstacles. Self-respect. Personal insight. A healthy degree of scepticism ( I say healthy-because you are your own protector and you get to be that for yourself-Now-when others that should have didn’t). You are a positive example for me. Thank you
I want to give the lawyers props, thanks and hey I am a grandma and fell in love with this young man. I am so glad Anthony is progressing so well!! The Netflix show was Eye opening for sure. I'm excited for your future Anthony, study hard and you will go far!!! ❤🎉
I know what you mean
I'm older too and this young man has a special place in my heart
I hope Jarrett stays on as his mentor
Thanks so much for the update ! So so so wonderful to hear you’re doing good ! And omgggg the Algebra comment… “what am I looking at here?”… a perfect description 😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I have just binge watched the docu serie on Netflix and I'm an emotional wreck.
Nothing could make me more happy right now than get to see Anthony thrive and live his life that he wants ❤ I'll root for him every second from now on.
Thank you Mr. Ambeu, if it weren't for you he would live his life in prison. You're an amazing man and lawyer ❤ Love to both of you from Lisa in Sweden 🇸🇪
Just finished watching "Just Killed My Dad" and I bawled on the last few scenes, when Anthony at long last was able to express himself and cried. Mr. Jarrett I think would be a friend and a good father figure to him. You have bright future ahead of you boy, just use that new found freedom well and to your advantage. You are not alone, if you need guidance, you have Mr.Ambeau, your step mom and Peyton, most of all you still have your biological mom, grandma and aunt, you can turn to. You are surrounded by people who loves you. They can guide you. Good luck Anthony!
This was really sad.He needs a lot of help.He needs to go to a psychologist for years,get friends and have a steady job.I'm afraid he will turn to drugs,be isolated or hang out with the wrong crowd.
Came to the comments hoping I’d find someone say something like this. I’m glad his personality has come out but it seems like he needs way more guidance, therapy, and a healthier environment. He has the potential and platform to do a lot in life with the right guidance.
I agree…narcissistic tendencies are rearing its head. He needs more help, but he doesn’t seem receptive of it, and whoever he is talking to is not leading him in the right path. Very vulnerable to the street life. I pray he is able to live a great life and maybe give his family a chance. Feeling unwanted and unloved, though his mother tried very hard, the trust isn’t there.
I hear it in him too. From about the halfway point of this interview continuing on. He seems not as receptive, or like he feels the need to cut off people or things that might feel like a rejection or not a success. And maybe this is a normal progression for him developmentally … he no longer has to be scared to death to fall in line for a dominating authority figure, he’s almost done being beholden to the courts, and so now he is free to explore choosing his tribe, and like most of us when we were young he is blunt and goes by the character he senses from folks. I don’t know; if nothing else maybe being wary can keep predatory teams away from him. I think about all these young folks who go viral end up on podcast junkets or talk shows and no one is looking out for them except as a famous name. Really thankful for Jarrett but yeah…compared to the first interview I am a little more worried about who else is in his ear.
I just watched the show and Anthony your endurance and resilience was so admirable. Just hearing Anthony’s voice what a blessing. To Lawyer Ambeau you are truly a Saint continued prayers for you both be blessed ❤
ANTHONY, you got me crying like a baby!!! I am so impressed with the positivity and confidence you have in yourself!!!
Please please please get that education done before the deadline !! I’m gonna Speak like a mom now so lay low on those games & concentrate on your schoolwork!!! I know you can do this you are such a strong, impressive young man!!!
I love that you are staying away from negative everything !!! it’s not worth it. Please don’t ever go down that path!!!

You are one of the good people in this planet. Thank you for saving this man.
I just watched the documentary. I’m rooting for you Anthony. So glad to see you’re doing well.
I'm concerned that he's not seeing his mother and half siblings because he feels 'people are too busy'. He still seems very untrusting of everyone. Maybe it will just take more time, he went through hell poor thing.
So much love to you Anthony! You're not alone. I've been abused almost my entire life and found myself standing at the foot of the bed with a loaded gun pointed at my sleeping husband because I just wanted it to end. But I had small children in the house so ultimatum I didn't pull the trigger. I completely understand what you went through. I been there
Just watched this on an Oxygen channel show.
Anthony, I could tell there was more to your story by the first interview with the police.
I'm so grateful that your stepmother hired Jarrett as your attorney.
Your abuse as a child was far greater than mine but I definitely could see it in your demeanor through the TV screen.
Your strength and bravery left such an impression on me. Plus, you look like a 70's Rockstar 😊
I know you will continue to recover spiritually and mentally due to your inner strength and fortitude. ✌️
I wish Anthony a beautiful, fulfilling, and happy life.❤
This story is soo inspirational and heartbreaking at the same time!!! Would love to follow the journey of your life. Any way I can help contribute financially with schooling would love to do this!! Blessings to you all!!
My daughter and I just finished watching the series. My heart goes out to you and hope you have a very happy life moving forward you deserve the best ❤
Anthony definitely has an exceptional mentor in Jarrett. His attitude needs adjusting, i.e. "I like being unemployed." Humble yourself, Anthony, as the selfless donors didn't contribute so you can live a life of unemployment. You're young, drop the know-it-all attitude, work hard and set goals! Develop an ATTITUDE of GRATITUDE.
He said he’s focusing on his education, what’s the problem with that? He’s missed out on so much and he’s still very young and deserves to now focus on his education that will stand to him for his future, best of luck to Anthony with that.
Anthony said he has been working nonstop since release of jail because I assume nobody was there to take care of him he had to take care of himself and just leave the old world behind he doesn't even talk to his mother or anyone from his childhood. He is raising himself I don't think he has a know it all attitude but just an attitude to let people know he is not stupid alot of people know he was not well educated and not even around the outside world he does have gratitude to see something other than the life he had he doesn't express emotions like others but it's well understood everyday life is probably hard for him mentally so like he said he likes his peace
Just binged the doc and I’m so happy to see this update. Sending so much positive vibes to Anthony… the world is your oyster but I agree with Jarrett, you didn’t get the right therapy. Give it a chance so that you can continue to grow and work through anything that comes up for you. Jarrett, you are an awesome mentor and one helluva good man. ❤
Watched doco last night. So glad he is doing well. Def inspirational and what he went thru with his dad is horrible. Have a good life young man and wish you all the happiness you deserve with your second chance in life.
Love how reassuring he is when they talk about nervousness.
Just finished watching the documentary...i saw a young man who was so mistreated, who didnt get have a childhood. He was in survival mode all his life. At the end when he finally showed his emotions. I was bawling, i just wanted to go hug him and hold him. This lawyer is awesome. He is a father figure in his life. Im glad he is able to live now. Sending yall love and hugs. Keep doing awesome.
