THIS STORY:
Fourteen years after a drunken driving crash killed Eva Burleson and her three children, a former McHenry man who spent more than a decade behind bars for their deaths pleaded guilty to driving under the influence FOR THE SECOND TIME.
Walter J. Depner, 62, of Mount Prospect, admitted Monday he was driving intoxicated February 2013, near the site of the crash that killed the 34-year-old mother and her children: Daniel, 13; Tiffany, 11; and Dallis, 7.
The family dog also was killed.

if a drunk driver killed my family and i found out he got out just say a eye for an eye but truly sad rip to the family
that happened recently -
ruclips.net/video/raUhCuG_DrQ/видео.html
People like him that drink and drive and kill a family should get life in prison no matter what
Some drunk drivers don't learn but after so many DUIs your license is gone for good that's why there's guys riding bicycles around here and hopefully they court mandated AA treatment some actually straiten out and get sober and some do not
They drink away everything that's good in there life
He should have been in prison for life for killing that family. What a sad story
At least life imprisonment, with no possibility of parole.
System always let's victims down
No, you're wrong, he deserves the only fitting sentence applicable. He should be sitting on death row! (sorry if you are against the death penalty, but sometimes it fits the crime)
It's unfortunate that drunk driving fatalities are considered a mistake and that people essentially get a slap on the wrist for killing others. It should be treated more like murder.
Some states treat it as such, there was a guy not too long ago here in Texas that got sent up for murder. I believe it was his third dui and he killed a 10 year old girl.
Depending on what state you're in it can be murder, especially if this isn't the first DUI.
What would have happen if he was "drunk", which seems to be the magic word for killing innocent people but being "drunk" and killing people with a gun ...will they still still give a slap on the wrist? The innocent are still gone. Does a judge decide; car, gun, car, gun; car ok you can go now. Our system is broken
It's interesting how grandma died two years to the day after this tragedy. She was heartbroken I am sure 😥
God rest their souls.
I just hope it wasn’t suicide.
@@PH-vd2te good eye 👀
I noticed the baby Tom had with his new wife also died in August 🥺😪 what a horrible month that must be for Tom & his wife...can't even imagine how they cope every year coming up to the anniversary's 🥺😥🌷
I noticed that too, also that the baby with his new wife also passed in August. So much tragedy in one family 😢 RIP
Bernita White unsolved sniper case was just as sad. Her mother died the same day her daughter pass(heart attack)
Sad, its never the drunk that pays the ultimate price, its always the innocent. Glad the father was able to move on. I'm sure his family is often in his thoughts. A far better man than I would have been if I were in that situation.
You're so kind. I lost my 22 year old son ten years ago and nothing brings more comfort than seeing others have left things at his resting place and remember him with me.💔
I’m so sorry 💛
@@KimberlyLew 💗
@@lendavoice60 thank you ❤️
@@Bella1neverknows670 ty. He was a sweety 💗
I lost my 20 year old daughter 5 years ago. I’m right there with you. Hugs to one Momma from another Momma.
So sad that a whole family wiped out. This crazy world is messed up.
I don't know if anyone else mentioned it in the comments, the eagle cries out when Ron was at little Abigalle's grave. Quite haunting
God bless the poor husband and father, for his forgiving heart. May his family Rest In Peace. Thank you Ron for sharing this heartbreaking story.
As someone who has lost friends and family to drunk drivers, this story crushes me and then it brings back all of the anger. I will never understand why people drive drunk. They know they’re going to drink and drive. The alcohol isn’t forced down their throat, the keys aren’t forced into their hand, nor is someone forcing them to drive. Thank you for telling their story 💕
Alcoholism is a self-inflicted "disease."
It does NOT have to materialize.
I couldn't imagine what that could be like. Absolutely terrible I cant even. I am so sorry you've had to experience that.
I really hope that the time has healed!
Got a frog in my throat just thinking about you.
Please be safe out there stranger! Bless you and everyone around you each and everyday.
Your amazing and phenomenal, the days are beautiful!
I've seen guys do it. They drink and feel emboldened to get in a car and race down the street with no sense of hurting anyone. It's just stupidity and irresponsibility combined.
Nobody leaves the bar thinking ‘I’m bored,think I’ll slam into a family tonight’. I’m not defending drunk drivers. If the penalties were more severe maybe there’d be second thoughts. Idk. Been drunk drivers since the invention of the automobile. Having an alcoholic father I’m of the opinion if your pulled over drunk behind the wheel roadside execution should be an option.
This is a horrible, sad story. I just can’t imagine having to bury your whole family. Thank you for telling their story.
I have lost 4 of my children. 3 didn't come home for the hospital and my son was murdered in 2015
@@rosemariemckinley7326 So sorry for your losses. God bless. 🙏
@@rosemariemckinley7326 😢
I’m reading the comments, feeling all the anger & pain. Then I remember this man, who lost everything, has a forgiving heart. I think that’s the real story here. What an inspiration he is! Bless him and may his family Rest In Peace.
I don't know how Tom managed after a loss like that, I don't think I could have been strong enough, its more then any human being should have to endure.Tom had to live with a lifetime sentence of losing his whole family, the drunk driver should have had a lifetime sentence also.Our judicial system is seriously flawed.
Totally agree. If you choose to get drunk and drive to me that's premeditation.
Yes, we have a STUPID, non-caring IDIOTIC run system, the laws are evil as they stand, the system itself is CRIMINAL
this happened a week after my 20th birthday and it still haunts me....the poor man lost his entire family i will never forget his picture in the paper....Rest in peace to all the Burlesons, you are not forgotten
My sister was killed by a drunk driver in 1978. She was 24. She was coming home from a date. Her date was badly hurt but lived. The drunk was fine. He didn't even go to jail. I lived in Crystal Lake from 1978 until 1998, before moving to New England so this was kind of an 'old home look' video. I know exactly where this cemetery is. So tragic.
So sorry! 💛
What a heartbreaking story. I am glad that Mr. Burleson has been able to have peace and forgive, for his own well-being and emotional health. God bless him. He’s been through so much. And thank you for sharing this and for being such a caring and thoughtful man.
Another great tribute to those who have tragically passed.
Agree 💔
Hello you 🤗
Wow!! The grandmother died exactly, to the day, two years after the accident! What a toll it must have taken on her. Such a tragedy!!
8 years is not a good amount of time in prison after killed several people. He should have not even had the ability to get out on probation, for at least 50 years. Those people did life in the grave, and the drunk sits in prison 8 years, no way is that enough. Second drunk driving should have been life.
Why our judicial system is so backwards sometimes is just mind boggling.
We lived in Gurnee for ten years and our kids spent all summer at Great America. This poor guy goes there and some disgusting crumb wipes out his family. Sickening.
In my country it is much worse. I practicly has no laws at all... If you have money, then there is freedom 100%sure.
@@anaschuck3475ll
How tragic. Once an addict, always one. It’s a disease. He should have gotten life the 1st time around. 4 lives, unthinkable. They get out and do it again. Lost my granddaughter’s Father to DUI vehicular homicide. The driver was given just 5 years. This is a pandemic of its own right. God bless them all! ❤️
I imagine August is always a hard month for Mr. Burleson to have lost his family, mother and possible a newborn.
Incredibly sad..
If he did it to my family. I would have waited till he got out and took care of him myself. I'm sure he would never been missed.
..then you will be in prison
@@chrisgoffe5048 Ok...still worth it.
Ron forgot one family member.. The family dog was ejected from the vehicle and died also. RIP Burlesons..Eva Marie's parents are to the left they passed in the 2000's
Yes the poor pup 😞
This poor father has had more grief than any one person should have to suffer through in one lifetime.
Our system is so beyond broken !!! My God !! You let a killer out & again .. I’m so angry & sad that a family that had to go through such !! Rip to all lost !! 🙏🏽❤️🥺💐
May this family Rest In Peace 🙏
🙏🙏🙏🌹
The boy is my age. It truly heartbreaking. Don't drink and drive. You know someone drunk. Take there keys and don't let em
He was arrested again in Feb. 2021 for driving on a revoked license. I will put it on FB page.
I don´t know why countries don´t take away the license when someone drives drunk. A car is a weapon and innocent people are in danger, all ages which makes it even worse. Of course some would still drive without a license but I am sure at least a certain percentage would be off the street. Driving should be a priviledge not a right.
I totally agree with you
Me too !
You dont need a license to drive, just the keys
The drunks license was revoked and he drove his girlfriend's car anyway. It's sick. He should have life in prison.
Taking the license...
Heck,some of these
monsters didn't have a
driving license in the first
place.😐😒
Back in the 1980 a drunk
driver killed my oldest sister,
and our father.And the people
in the other vehicle including
the drunk driver they didn't survive either.The drunk driver wipe out everybody...
Himself
included.😐😒
Tragic. Thank you for placing the flowers 🌼
What a tragic story. Tom has to be one of the strongest men on the planet to be able to move forward after so much loss. Then to possibly have lost a newborn with his new wife years later. He is definitely a warrior. I hope he has other children. I pray for his family. I believe he has endured more than his fair share of tragedy in life.
I did not know of this story. I pray that he has finally learned his lesson and no longer drinks - and if he drinks he doesn't drive. Alcoholism is a disease. But he gets the choice to drive or not so I pray he chooses correctly. He is just lucky he didn't kill anybody in the 2nd accident. He got far too little time for killing 4 people in the 1st place. They make hooch in prison. So he could have been still drinking in there too.
Ron, thank you for sharing this with us. It appeared to be a beautiful day for a walk.
So very sad. Thank you for remembering this family.
You told this story so well that I felt incredible rage over this Walter guy , can't believe some people
The sad thing is that some people just never learn. I applaud the dad and husband for being able to feel the way he does. I think the man who was drunk and killed thT family should have sat much more than 12 years the first time and it should have been more for the next time he drank and got behind the wheel. He was just lucky he did not kill anyone the next time.
Such a sad story. May they all Rest In Peace. 🌼🌹🌻
Goodafternoon Ron. I'm glad this was shown. May they rest in peace😪
My heart goes out to this family
The poor husband. He had to find a way to live without his family.
Very sad knowing there are people out there like this. Rip Burleson Family. That mans day will come to get him for sure.
That is so sad what happened to that family 😢😢 May they Rest In Peace ✝️😢😢♥️♥️💙💙🙏🙏✝️
You sir are an Angel of Kindness walking among us all. Thank you. God Bless.
I’m so sorry for the husband and dad of this family. Anyone who gets behind the wheel drunk, makes me angry, I cannot believe he didn’t learn his lesson.
You should do a story about Dan & Terri Bonnie. They plus their kids were killed by a drunk driver coming home from a graduation party in Bartlett.
Do you know what year it happened id.like to research it
@@durwud8431 it was the late 80's I believe. They lived in Wauconda next door to my brother, a very nice family.
@@Mike-vt6jj mike I know you.im from wauconda
There are no words to express my horror over this unspeakable tragedy. Tom Burleson -- I have to tip my hat to you for making it through this. Walter the drunken killer should've been locked up for life as should anyone who kills while driving drunk. Watch the death toll drop like a rock should that ever happen.
The survivor of this crash (the father,) spoke at my high school in my health class in 2001. Had to relive the accident every single day that he told his story. Something I will never forget!
wow! thanks for sharing. I cannot imagine...
So so sad. The father husband only survivor. remember JOB. God comfort him.
I believe Same guy who shouted “you’ll get yours” to the surviving dad in the courtroom as he was convicted and being led away for killing the mans family.
Omg unbelievable. How cruel.
HEAR THAT HAWK , THE SPIRITS ARE ABOVE , THEY ARE NEAR , GOD REST THEIR SOULS IN THE GLORY OF HEAVEN , MAY THEY FIND ETERNAL PEACE 🕊🙏😥💔 HEARTBREAK BEYOND BELIEF ,
You are a kind, thoughtful and caring man, sir.
Oh what a terrible tragedy. RIP to all of you. You are in a better place now. 🙏😇
What beautiful children!! My heart breaks for Tom! I pray God gives him his peace that surpasses all understanding. Danyelle
That hawk? calling in the background is haunting yet peaceful. Thank you for remembering this family.
Drunk driver killed my brother she served six months rest probation That lovely family gone and for what so they can drink drive heart breaking
My condolences 😔
Beautiful that grandma Nd Dallis had the same birthday…. Sad that she passed away on the day of her family….
Imagine the irony if this drunken killer had again committed vehicular homicide, this time against the dad! These drunks have forfeited their right to live among law abiding people.
So sad, rest in 🕊️
THATS SO SAD , BLESS THAT FAMILY WOWW 🙏😇🙏 SOME PEOPLE " NEVER" LEARN !!!
THANK YOU FOR SHARING !
I PRAY THAT GUY DOESN'T HURT ANYONE ELSE !!!!!!
The grandmother passed 2 years on the day of the families death. How sad. At least they are now all together, waiting for dad. Thank you for telling us their story.
How awful. So much loss for this Dad. 🥺 I hope the remainder of his life is full of joy. If there was anyone who deserved it, this man is it.
At 10:56 as you were at Abigale’s grave an eagle called out. Very significant spiritually.
Such a great heart you have Ron,thank you for remembering these wonderful people, in case you didn't notice the Grandmother passed away 2 years to the day from when the family did, that is heartbreak that is for sure.
I was 7 years old when this happened. Dallis was on my cheerleading squad and I remember her brother and sister picking her up from practice. When they were killed, it impacted me so greatly. I think about it randomly, now as a 32 year old woman. I miss my friends and I'm devastated for their father Thomas. That instance changed me forever. No child should have to attend their friend's funeral where she is wearing the same uniform as her friend in the casket.
The eagle calls 10:55 when you finished reading the last grave marker of their family through the last beautiful rose you placed on their grave. 💛💛💛💛
Ron, ty for sharing their stories. ❤️
This is so sad. Thanks for sharing this story.
Man that is so sad and to loose
Another child
@@davidc6928 😢
🥺💔
I'm shocked by how short Depner's original sentence was and stunned he didn't get the maximum sentence for the second offense. I believe DUI's that end up killing someone should be treated like murder and not homicide in the legal system and sentences should be much more severe.
You are a great guy ron I feel so sorry for that man
A very respectfully delivered but so sad a tale. Beautiful gesture with the roses.
Ron, thank you for the courtesy you show the deceased. You don't walk on the graves,, put flowers on graves and what touches my heart the most is you always say to a military grave..."thank you for your service", always respectful the way you tell their story. As a widow of a military man, I thank you very much.
Thank you for a narration that reflected the pain of Tom's loss as well as the hope for society to not forget such tragedies and punish the person responsible
the husband Tom is a remarkable man and we can learn a valuable life lesson from him that being the importance of forgiveness not only to forgive the responsible person but to let go the negetive feelings that only hurt the victims further Tom's a inspiration to us all I wish him the best he certainly deserves it
What a sad story. I am happy that the Father was able to forgive as that is more for him than the person being forgiven.It is a very difficult thing to do. Keep Safe ❤Keep Well ❤
Hey all! Horrible what happened and he was allowed to continue to drunk drive again and again. RIP 😞
Awe! You're so sweet! THANK you for video. I do appreciate it.😔
God bless that man. I hope his family is resting in peace. Thank you for remembering them.
Sadly tragedies will never end, bless their hearts
Much love. Thank you for sharing this. Please take care of yourself and be safe.
Hi Ron thank you for sharing with us a lovely gesture putting flowers on the Thier graves hope they are resting in peace stay safe and safe travels
This is a very sad story. Thank you Ron for sharing this.
This has to be one of the most heartbreaking stories I've seen on your channel. I feel just shattered for this family. God bless them all! Safe travels, Ron!
So sweet of you to leave flowers to show the family their loved ones are being honored and remembered.
I'm so sorry for Tom who lost his entire family and the dog in one lovely afternoon. I'm not sure how he's managed. That drunk of course survived -- they always do. He should have never gotten out of prison. Laws are too lax where this occurred. RIP to this lovely family. To the drunk- Rot in hell.
I used to be a medic and we rolled on a call of pedestrians vs auto. When we got there, three children had been hit by a drunk driver killing one child instantly and injuring the other two who were pronounced dead at the hospital. He had 9 prior drunk driving citations. He was of course convicted and sent to prison for killing these girls. He died in prison of a brain tumor.
If he hadn’t died, I feel very sure he would have killed others while driving drunk.
I can’t imagine losing my whole family to something so senseless.
My heart breaks for this family.
These kinds of stories scare me! Seems every time my kids would leave the house the sirens go off and I worry constantly about an accident.....that poor father.....I dont think I could survive loosing my whole family...that drunk should have gotten a life sentence, that father certainly did! Amazing he had a forgiving heart.
It's so difficult to watch videos like this. Just so sad on every level. :-( Nice, though, that you place yellow roses on their graves, Ron!
God bless Mr. Burleson. I cannot fathom the pain and torment this brought to him and I know it took everything in him to keep living. May he have the peace and happiness he deserves and God rest the souls of these beautiful people.😓🙏
Ron, thanks for sharing this sad story and may all of this Family Rest In Peace.
Thank you for the video. Very sad. May God grant them eternal rest. That's so thoughtful of you, to remember them with the beautiful flowers. Bless your heart, Ron!! Take care, stay safe, God bless you!! Have a nice evening!
How devastating for Tom. RIP to his wife and children.
This is such a devastating story. I will never understand why the good always die. 😥
With you in Burnsville Minnesota
What a tragedy. Thank you for telling their story!! That poor Father, he sounds very strong.
I can’t imagine being able to live after that. I don’t think I’d want to. We had a terrible incident like this here in the Toronto area a few years ago. A 30 yr old man killed a grandfather and his 3 grandchildren driving drunk, leaving the parents with no children. 💔💔💔
This has to be one of the saddest stories I’ve ever heard. There MUST be harsher punishment for drunk drivers who MURDER innocent people. Why was he even let out of jail. Thank you Ron for sharing. be safe my friend. ❤️ and 🙏🏻from the old🧑🏻🦳from the big 🍎
So kind to place flowers 💐
The guy that survived came to our school today and talked about what happened in detail which was very sad to hear
God bless Tom and may his family rest in peace.
Devastating. I cannot imagine that kind of heartache. My heart goes out to Tom.
Why do the drunk drivers always seem to be the only ones to survive these horrible crashes and the innocent perish? Seems so ironic & totally sad.
My thoughts are because they are relaxed…trauma is less.
