I don’t agree with his comments on his sister, her faith and lack of tears. Plus the way he left without a call, text or door knock for his sister. Plus the plug for his business was scandalous, he zesty and b made. He is on the news talking about them not getting along. Discussing his beef on the news after death? Ew. I feel bad for the victims who really loved, worried, tried to save, called, checked on and cared for their families.
You can hear the remorse in his voice. This is why I tell everyone there’s no time to be upset at each other. Life can be lost in an instant. Just look at this tragedy no one expected this early into the year
Some people don't understand how it was over here and asking why didn't he go there. Its active flames all around along with a thick black cloud of smoke. His cousin said they knocked on doors as they ran. Add panic to that and you forget alot. Try running down the street holding your child and realizing that you left your phone behind after you reach your destination and can't contact your loved ones to beg them to leave again. I literally walked outside with only socks on and didn't realize i didn't have shoes on until later
Exactly. No one could understand until you’re there in that moment. Fires happen fast and you have NO time to think. Truly heartbreaking 💔. I have alot of family and friends in the area. No one ever thought the fire would come down this far. Never happened before. It’s unprecedented
It's hard not to we are all humans. Atleast those who saw this may think twice if ever placed in an emergency situation. Have someone in the car call or stop.
I see guilt!! No way did he see her car and didn't know she was still in the house. He knew bc you can't go anywhere in California w/o a vehicle bc public transit is bad & not an option.🤦🏽♀️ He knew she was there, he just didn't care.
He said..."You were loved & cared about"...but he loved her so much that he didn't even stop quickly at her house to call or knock on her door??🤔 Yeah, he's full of it🤦🏽♀️
@cherylf4269 he saw her car and still didn't check on her because they didn't get along. Now he feels some type of way...but not bad enough to stop him from promoting his business.🤷🏽♀️
@@atkpw1108 .... don't you think NOW would be the perfect time to get new business? He lost everything - all he has IS his career and could DEFINITELY use the money right now. Stop being judgmental
@@cherylf4269 Doesn't sound right to me either. He noticed his sister's car was still in front of the house as he was leaving??? Did he not bang on her door? Were they estranged? He told this same story on 60 Minutes. I'm sorry for his loss, but the situation with his sister doesn't make a bit of sense to me. He just drove off without even banging on her door???
This is the very reason this fire happened. It will haunt him for the rest of his days that he left his sister behind. Its like 9/11 when you hear of the numerous stories of how people had 2 choices, save themselves only or help others as well, go this way or go that way. That stuff sticks with those survivors to this day as this will for him.
@@jenmdawghe got his grandma left his sister behind. It was his intentions to do so.that blood is on his hands. He had time other went to get thier neighbors and had lest time then himself. Yall will defend the devil 😈
I'm disturbed by this story. One moment he said it was chaotic then he said he thought everything would still be there and they were just packing up for a few days. I find it hard to believe NO ONE seen her. She could fell and needed help. I get family issues but even if he noticed and want to keep it moving why no one else insisted on at least checking because it doesnt sound like they were surrounded by fire if he thought they were just packing for few days. This isn't adding up. He didn't mention anyone calling her.
Also sound like it was 4 adults, excluding the elderly parents, that could of called her cell phone that most likely would of led them to her had she been going through a medical emergency. If she was ok and someone that's not mentally handicap deciding to stay then that would be her choice. I feel like he said he thought everything would still be there after telling the story to justify not trying to find her. It's contradicting because they made sure to get everyone out but her. I feel so sad for her. I don't know their family issues but seem like she didn't have anyone in that moment.
There are people in Facebook groups I’m in talking about staying despite alerts. Fire is such a painful way to die! Please leave if you are told to leave.
It's just so hard to comprehend what happened to his sister. I'd like to think that if I'm driving away and seeing my siblings car and not knowing if she is even aware of what's going on, that I would have the mind space and courage to run as fast as I can and begin screaming and yelling to get my sister out. Again, no one knows what one will do until you are faced with this situation!
Exactly. I'd call her phone or rush in or something. It's so sad though. He said, "I know we didn't always get along". Could that be why he was Iike "I'm sure she'll sort herself? She's probably getting ready to leave also. So I'll just keep driving". Because if he "rushed" him and his family to the car, he knew it was dire. He should have just stopped his car, ran into her house and grabbed her by the hand and dragged her into his car or something
Ok. So I thought I misheard him. But if y’all lived that close to one another, you saw her car, why wouldn’t you just go check and say hey let’s go??’! I am confused. But it’s not my business. Please check on your neighbors, loved ones etc…

@@Midwest_GyrlHe’s probably thinking to himself, one less person to split my inheritance. I’m sure he only makes $42K avg salary per year so this would be a come up. Look at how he’s plugging his business as well. Wow.
@@Midwest_GyrlHe tried he said he had to race to get his wife and baby and save himself.. he said she may have thought she had time to get out.. this was horrific the other gentleman described the situation.. he has to live with the guilt of not being able to save his sister after nearly escaping with his life 😢
@@Midwest_Gyrl As you say He was sooooo selfish he saved his wife, 1yr old son and his elderly mother who could barely walk in an volcanic fire.. and he knocked on doors in a thick black smoke, coughing, eyes burning, power lines falling, frantic, in shock, looking at his mothers home burning to the ground, in 900 degree heat , looking at his sister’s car in shock looking at the house seeing it burning in an inferno knowing in your heart that you can’t run back in there to save her because the flames are just too powerful.. there were no responders there to help these men .. they were in Altadena community.. these men had to fend for themselves.. have you seen the experienced 🧑🏾🚒 having difficulty?
So let me get this right...he didn't have the decency to help out his blood sister, but he wants to shout out his non-profit to help the youth! Audacity is at an all-time high!! If you don't love your blood, you darn sho can't love strangers. 💔
He probably didn't have the time. But at the end of the day they all should've been more proactive about evading the fires beyond waiting till the last minute.
It was definitely the business shout out that threw me... further than I already was when he admitted to passing his sister's car then admitting to not getting along with her... I've officially judged his character. Shame on me, lol. & sorry to him that it's all captured in this video.
Yes he left her in purpose in my opinion ! If you listen he started off saying we didn’t always get along ! Wtf bro if this was a murder case on 1st48 you just told on yourself !
🤔Nah bruh, "maybe she thought it wasn't going to get as bad as it did"??? But he claimed to have seen her car. Did he not go and knock on her door to get out??? What about the shameless plugging of his business?? I apologize, but something is strange about his story. R.I.P. Evelyn🕊
True, but the chaos & pressure of the moment, people yelling we gotta go, tunneling thru the embers and planning to get out then record scratches “Evelyn’s car? Wait what?” It’s like he couldn’t process that extra information in that moment.
@@pearpo I will never ever left a member of my family behind even if I have my kids in the car. This man didn't get along with his sister for sure, but I dont believe that the pressure of the moment was the case.
@derricklangford4725 A grown man should have a better perspective, I’ve seen Arabs do whatever for their women despite hating them in time of life or death
Wow she was still at the house, he drove past her vehicle... how did she get left behind? makes zero sense since he was getting his wife, his child, the grandmother and cousins but not the sister??? Did they live in the same house???? Hope they do more interviews to answer some question... I do not understand this story
Yet, he cared for his sister ..🤦🏽♀️ he's just a lying sack of you know what. He knew she was in that house bc you can't go anywhere in California without a car.🤦🏽♀️
Sir, my heart goes out to you 💔. The horror of this fire is so unreal, almost like a disaster movie to watch. But this us real and I'm so sorry for your loss.
He said, "I know we didn't always get along". But even with that, I would have still stopped to go get my sibling. I think it's actually horrible he didn't go get her. And he on tv saying it also. Shame!
@OnMyGrindNowForever I definitely noted the 'we didn't always get along ' & connected to why he didn't at least try to call or text & see if he got a response.
@khalilahsullivan-smith6051 I mean he said they went knocking on neighbors doors but didn't have 10 seconds to call their sister or quickly knock on her door. Also from what he said, it seemed maybe his other family members didn't get along with her as well. Because he said, "I just want you to know, you were loved" or something along those lines. I just hope what I'm thinking isn't the case because if it is, then it's just sheer wickedness.
My spidey senses are tingling with the first guy. Leave sister behind. Promote business. Face dry. No tears. Shout out to Nu-Nu from the 2nd guy. Something is off with both of them.
I feel bad for the sister. Even though we didn't get along but i would do anything to help my sister. It would be better for me not to talk to her but knowing she's ok than for her to be gone knowing i could have at least done something to save her. He sounds like a cold-hearted person
IM DONE YOU MEAN TO TELL ME YOU LEFT YOUR SISTER IN THE HOUSE YOU DIDN'T EVEN THINK TO GO AND GET HER OUT THE HOUSE OR KNOCK ON THE DOOR WHEN YOU AND YOUR FAMILY'S WAS LEAVING YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE MAD AT YOU THIS JUST PISSED ME TF OFF DO YOU HAVE A CONSCIOUS YOU DONT EVEN SEEM SAD FR 🤨🤔🤨🤔🤨🤔🤨🤔
@@clutchmedia394 That’s the thing…not even the sister’s mother (His mother,too) checked on Evelyn. My little brother’s mother just died a few days ago from a drug overdose. Last week she beat my little 7 year old brother up, accusing him of using her drugs. My brother learned his mother’s died and asked my dad to find him a new mother. That girl was terrorizing her entire family, my brother and my dad. Nobody will miss her. I think the sister wasn’t so nice..
Wait so you mean to tell me you couldn't take 2 extra minutes to tell your sister let's go and you're standing by your cousin who came and got you AND YOU PASSED BY HERE HOUSE... man you shouldn't have gotten on here AT ALL and spoke because it makes you look bad... as you stated you and her didn't get along so is that why you didn't tell her, not to mention you send a shot out to her like she can hear you, AND you mention your business man you are a joke! And to the people who are saying he's not responsible for her leaving... true but for me and how I'm built whether I'm speaking to you or not I'm still gone at least try or tell you how bad it is and you should leave... THEN IT BE UP TO YOU... SMDH and I'm sorry for all their loss death and houses ....😢
It’s tragic, I’m just not connecting why he didn’t stop really quick to make sure she was heading out. How do you keep driving past her house without wondering?? Clearly the “we didn’t always get along” hit harder in my spirit bc it seems like that’s exactly why he didn’t feel the need to stop. Maybe they were going through something. But he’s the man in the family, so I think he’ll live the rest of his life in REGRET, likely from repeatedly replaying in his mind the “driving away” aftr saving everyone but the one family member he didn’t stop to save …who then died. RIP
I'm confused. Did she know everyone else was leaving? If they assumed she got the alert did anyone e try calling? Sounds like there are multiple family members living in the same area.
He said he got all his family together but then mentions seeing his sisters car still in front of her house. Why on earth wouldn’t you check then and obviously you didn’t have all your family together cause you left one behind. I feel no sympathy for him! Rip Evelyn and I’m sorry your family,ily left you behind without even checking on you before they left.
@@jennifermarie3158He was able to get his wife, 1 yr old son, elderly mother who more than likely needed assistance this man looks like he is in his late 40’s early 50’s so his mother is probably in her 80’s couldn’t barely walk he. saved 3 people he couldn’t be that bad of a person.. He probably thought his sister being around his age could have got out.. they were knocking on doors they lost NuNu. I mean man why is people ridiculing this man .. They did all of this with out the assistance of first responders.. It’s Pitch dark from the smoke, coughing, eyes watering, 95 degree winds it was probably 900 degrees with the heat and embers from the flames all around them. Power lines are sparking all around them. I mean some of these people in the comments obviously have never been in a fire where they had to flee with the clothes on their backs… 😮 This wasn’t a Hollywood movie this was real life.. If the firemen 🧑🏾🚒who are trained at rescuing and fighting fires are having a difficult time what do you expect ordinary citizens should be able to do..? I mean people are saying some of the most heartless comments.. oh because he and his sister didn’t get along he let her die, he didn’t love his sister😮 where is the humane compassion for these people . Has anyone else noticed the heartbreaking devastation, trauma, hopelessness of these people.. come on we have to show loving compassion.. I wonder how many people could brave those conditions and saved lives.. I noticed he said he went inside and got his mother who more than likely was in the living room so he grabbed her to help her . He was man enough to go into a burning house to save his mother.. this man in my eyes is a hero and his cousin also.. he had enough for-thought to mention his charitable foundation helping at risk youths and people suffering with diabetes this was the perfect time to mention it because he was on national television.. maybe people who care about helping others will see his video and donate to his foundation. No one failed to mention how other people are using this opportunity to steal, price gouging and take advantage of people in a time of need. The reporter asked him if he had anything else to say and he mentioned his sister and his foundation once again he is a loving individual still thinking about helping other in time of need. Thank you Jennifer Maria for your kind words.. 😊
Why is he promoting his program on the edge of his sister’s death. Sorry, but that is not right. I know we all don’t know what we will do, but no one said a call to her personally. Was she in the house next door with the grandma/mother or another house? These haven’t gotten enough air time, we need to hear other stories without selfish self-promotion in the midst of a “loved” ones death.
This is the very reason this fire happened. It will haunt him for the rest of his days. Its like 9/11 when you hear of the numerous stories of how people had 2 choices, save themselves only or help others, go this way or go that way. That stuff sticks with those survivors to this day.
Not blaming him…I just don’t understand why you wouldn’t at least call or check to make sure your Sister was alerted.. The exact same blessing that you were given by your friend.. especially knowing there were only a few precious moments to get out safe and obviously seeing her car should’ve been a reminder esp if the whole family was together, including the mother and the only person missing was the sister 😢
You have no idea how hectic it was with literal fire balls flying eveywhere and 60mph winds and seeing the fire coming your way in the distance. I was there. You lack empathy
The fact that you didn’t check on your sis as you all were leaving is really sad!!!!! She was your sister. This sibling strife in our community is tearing it apart.
How do you keep a straight face 🤯 and tell the media, in essence the world, that you left your sister? Then implied that although y'all didn't get along....it wasn't personal. Then promote your business? Sheesh 🙄....and don't anyone come on here talking about he is in shock. Shameful.
Yeah. I hope that he is making this up. Then again that would be sick! But to just leave her without checking to see if she was out… She could have been asleep, in the shower… When the friend came and told you. You saw her car. Then you made a point to say that you didn’t always get along… No judging but It’s confusing.
I visited Laurel Canyon in 2015 and the owner of the home told us be careful when we dispose of any cigarettes because the whole place will go up in fire. This should of never happened.
With all due respect, sounds like he saw her car when leaving and didn't care to check if she was ok because they weren't speaking. They only went back the next day and found her dead? Wow.
Something ain't right. The family came back and told him it's time to go, He go grab his grandmother. And mother, wife kids, Your sister live right next door and you didn't go grab her or even think about going to grab her, But you notice her car was still there, in the driveway as y'all was leaving, ain't nobody go over there and check. You didn't think about it until the next day. And your statement on the news, nobody know your relationship between you and your sister but the family, But you had to say, you know we didn't get along like that, why did he bring that up at that time, That got nothing to do with what happened.. And you didn't have one tear.
@@msc2757What are you talking about. If you heard his statement, they never went to go get her. They didn't even check to see if she was in the house but He knew the grandma too old to notice but he noticed her car in the driveway. The whole family stayed together and left together but they round up each other and the whole family left together, They never went to her house, He never checked on her and told her let's go, her house is right across the street, they can see it from their house, That's how he noticed the car still in the driveway, But he had the nerve to say, I know me and her didn't get along like that. What that got to do with the situation of what happened, why you want to bring that up after the fact You know you left her for dead.
He didn’t need her News obituary to be sprinkled with his contempt for her. He isn’t allowing her to rest in peace. He is getting the chip off his shoulder instead. I would’ve gave him more credit if he didn’t plug his business. But the pattern of his behavior and lack of tears is offputting. But the focus should be on prayers for the victims so I will leave it at that. Prayers up
This man failed his sister. Regardless to what issues you guys had. How hard was it to atleast call or get one of the other family member to call or run out abd quickly bang her door. Sad. May she rest in peace. 💐
Then he shouldn't have mentioned her at all. He should have left her name out of his mouth. If she's not worth a knock on the door, then don't mention her at all.
Malice is ridiculous in times of emergency and danger. Life is too precious. Material possession is replaceable. My condolences to the families that lost love ones.
This is just too devastating. To all the families who have lost their homes, a friend, a loved one or a fond pet, I'm just so so sorry! I'm just so sorry. 😢😢
A sad situation all around. Family disputes and conflicts are a reality. It is essential to check in on your loved ones, especially if relationships are strained, and even more so during a natural disaster.
@1:37 He noticed his sister's car was still in front of the house as he was leaving??? Did he not bang on her door? Were they estranged? He told this same story on 60 Minutes. I'm sorry for his loss, but the situation with his sister doesn't make a bit of sense to me. Yes, I know he doesn't owe me any explanation, but he's the one whose choosing to go on different TV stations to tell this story. He just drove off without even banging on her door???

Be a selfish man...he didn't love nor care for his sister. And I wouldn't donate anything to his organization.🤦🏽♀️
She asked him if there anything people can do to help out..?
@@Midwest_GyrlHe tried he said he had to race to get his wife and baby and save himself.. he said she may have thought she had time to get out.. this was horrific the other gentleman described the situation.. he has to live with the guilt of not being able to save his sister after nearly escaping with his life 😢
@@Midwest_Gyrl As you say He was sooooo selfish he saved his wife, 1yr old son and his elderly mother who could barely walk in an volcanic fire.. and he knocked on doors in a thick black smoke, coughing, eyes burning, power lines falling, frantic, in shock, looking at his mothers home burning to the ground, in 900 degree heat , looking at his sister’s car in shock looking at the house seeing it burning in an inferno knowing in your heart that you can’t run back in there to save her because the flames are just too powerful.. there were no responders there to help these men .. they were in Altadena community.. these men had to fend for themselves.. have you seen the experienced 🧑🏾🚒 having difficulty?
He put more effort into plugging his business than ensuring his sister was okay. 😒
Im so confused that he didn't check on sister...
Exactly 💯
You should've checked the first time you drove past her house
@calandrawilliams6021
💯💯💯
This dude a fake
Exactly 💯
So let me get this right...he didn't have the decency to help out his blood sister, but he wants to shout out his non-profit to help the youth! Audacity is at an all-time high!! If you don't love your blood, you darn sho can't love strangers. 💔
He probably didn't have the time. But at the end of the day they all should've been more proactive about evading the fires beyond waiting till the last minute.
I know right... something is very off... he is asking money for his business and nothing for burial for his sister... ????
Why didn’t he even try to call her. Tell her to Get Out! We are Gone! It’s Pretty Bad!
Something Missing.
It was definitely the business shout out that threw me... further than I already was when he admitted to passing his sister's car then admitting to not getting along with her... I've officially judged his character. Shame on me, lol. & sorry to him that it's all captured in this video.
Yes he left her in purpose in my opinion ! If you listen he started off saying we didn’t always get along ! Wtf bro if this was a murder case on 1st48 you just told on yourself !
OMG 😱 You Left Your Sister Evelyn ? Unbelievable! Smh
Do you know the family?
Why did you guys leave Evelyn behind this is so sad
🤔Nah bruh, "maybe she thought it wasn't going to get as bad as it did"??? But he claimed to have seen her car. Did he not go and knock on her door to get out??? What about the shameless plugging of his business?? I apologize, but something is strange about his story. R.I.P. Evelyn🕊
He literally leave his sister behind knowing her car was still there when he left
True, but the chaos & pressure of the moment, people yelling we gotta go, tunneling thru the embers and planning to get out then record scratches “Evelyn’s car? Wait what?”
It’s like he couldn’t process that extra information in that moment.
Celestial from "The Masters Voice Prophecy Blog" Prophesied this would happen back in 2018- 2024
@@pearpo True, he must have had kids to get out too...
@@pearpo Based on the story of them thinking it wasn't that serious they could of checked on her. He should of kept this to himself.
@@pearpo I will never ever left a member of my family behind even if I have my kids in the car. This man didn't get along with his sister for sure, but I dont believe that the pressure of the moment was the case.
Unbelievable! One minute this guy was talking about the lost of his sister, then promoted his businesses. This is INAPPROPRIATE!
The lady ask him and yes promoted so we can help than he help others
Ion know but the story is weird.
Nah, I ain't buying it. NO NO NO I'm going next door, I'm calling out her name. NO NO NO
Facts, he told on himself
My brother is heartless towards me like this and would have left me too! 😢
Evil. Sorry you have to deal with a 'brother' like that.
My “brother” would have left me too. Black men who hate black women, are nothing to play with!
I'm pretty sure there's two sides to that story 😒
@derricklangford4725
A grown man should have a better perspective, I’ve seen Arabs do whatever for their women despite hating them in time of life or death
@googlea2692 absolutely 💯!!!
He left her because they weren't getting along 😢 He ain't ish for that
You sure it wasn't the thick flames and black smoke with swirling winds while holding a child?
why didn't he call or check on his sister? who would leave if you saw the car?
Exactly 💯
Wow she was still at the house, he drove past her vehicle... how did she get left behind? makes zero sense since he was getting his wife, his child, the grandmother and cousins but not the sister??? Did they live in the same house???? Hope they do more interviews to answer some question... I do not understand this story
Doesmt seem so. But the houses were close by im gusing or enroute since he drove by.
This man shouldn't have told his story about his sister nobody went to check on her at all but yall got everybody...
I wish he didn't say they didn't get along. Just say you were so panicked you left believing that his sister was leaving too.
@@godisgood7334His guilt got the better of him. Unfortunately, it just makes him look shady AF.
Not the business plug! 😩
Yet, he cared for his sister ..🤦🏽♀️ he's just a lying sack of you know what. He knew she was in that house bc you can't go anywhere in California without a car.🤦🏽♀️
He a fake
His story made NO SENSE
this is absolutely heartbreaking. :((
This sound suspicious
Why didn't he stop to make sure she was ok? I know we didn't always get along?! 🤔 No phone call to make sure she got the message? Strange.
Exactly 💯
Sir, my heart goes out to you 💔. The horror of this fire is so unreal, almost like a disaster movie to watch. But this us real and I'm so sorry for your loss.
And to now think this “brother” is suing for his sister’s death. But he didn’t check to see if she got out!!! He got some nerve!!!
Sorry for your loss... This is just terrible...
How do you not quickly stop to get a family member at least awake, on your way out? Omg
He said, "I know we didn't always get along". But even with that, I would have still stopped to go get my sibling. I think it's actually horrible he didn't go get her. And he on tv saying it also. Shame!
That's black men for ya@@OnMyGrindNowForever
@OnMyGrindNowForever I definitely noted the 'we didn't always get along ' & connected to why he didn't at least try to call or text & see if he got a response.
@khalilahsullivan-smith6051
I mean he said they went knocking on neighbors doors but didn't have 10 seconds to call their sister or quickly knock on her door. Also from what he said, it seemed maybe his other family members didn't get along with her as well. Because he said, "I just want you to know, you were loved" or something along those lines.
I just hope what I'm thinking isn't the case because if it is, then it's just sheer wickedness.
@@OnMyGrindNowForeverTHE STORY DONT SOUND RIGHT TO ME & NOTICE WHEN THE LADY ASK ABOUT THE SISTER HOW HE LOOKED AT HIM, SOMETHING NOT RIGHT 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
My spidey senses are tingling with the first guy. Leave sister behind. Promote business. Face dry. No tears. Shout out to Nu-Nu from the 2nd guy. Something is off with both of them.
Yeah, usually barely escaping with your life from a horrific natural disaster will throw you off.
@ Yea, I believe there is truth to that!
Left his sister?
Sad 😢😢😢
Guess u did not SEE GAZA 😢
@@medinasubrattee9896what does la got to do with gaza
I feel bad for the sister. Even though we didn't get along but i would do anything to help my sister. It would be better for me not to talk to her but knowing she's ok than for her to be gone knowing i could have at least done something to save her. He sounds like a cold-hearted person
So sorry for your loss 😢😢😢😢😢
I am so sorry. 😢😢
IM DONE YOU MEAN TO TELL ME YOU LEFT YOUR SISTER IN THE HOUSE YOU DIDN'T EVEN THINK TO GO AND GET HER OUT THE HOUSE OR KNOCK ON THE DOOR WHEN YOU AND YOUR FAMILY'S WAS LEAVING YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE MAD AT YOU THIS JUST PISSED ME TF OFF DO YOU HAVE A CONSCIOUS YOU DONT EVEN SEEM SAD FR 🤨🤔🤨🤔🤨🤔🤨🤔
His sister must have been a piece of work. They all decided to leave her.
@@clutchmedia394 That’s the thing…not even the sister’s mother (His mother,too) checked on Evelyn. My little brother’s mother just died a few days ago from a drug overdose. Last week she beat my little 7 year old brother up, accusing him of using her drugs. My brother learned his mother’s died and asked my dad to find him a new mother. That girl was terrorizing her entire family, my brother and my dad. Nobody will miss her. I think the sister wasn’t so nice..
@mardigras33 alot of women don't care about anything but pride and ego. It's extremely masculine but they think it's womanhood.
Shameful. Didn't evacuate his sister. Nec minit, plugging his business.
Wait so you mean to tell me you couldn't take 2 extra minutes to tell your sister let's go and you're standing by your cousin who came and got you AND YOU PASSED BY HERE HOUSE... man you shouldn't have gotten on here AT ALL and spoke because it makes you look bad... as you stated you and her didn't get along so is that why you didn't tell her, not to mention you send a shot out to her like she can hear you, AND you mention your business man you are a joke! And to the people who are saying he's not responsible for her leaving... true but for me and how I'm built whether I'm speaking to you or not I'm still gone at least try or tell you how bad it is and you should leave... THEN IT BE UP TO YOU... SMDH and I'm sorry for all their loss death and houses ....😢
💯💯💯💯💯
Agree 💯 he still should have called her.
It be your own family smh 😢
Not him promoting the buisness 😮😮😮
It’s shock maybe?
It’s tragic, I’m just not connecting why he didn’t stop really quick to make sure she was heading out. How do you keep driving past her house without wondering?? Clearly the “we didn’t always get along” hit harder in my spirit bc it seems like that’s exactly why he didn’t feel the need to stop. Maybe they were going through something. But he’s the man in the family, so I think he’ll live the rest of his life in REGRET, likely from repeatedly replaying in his mind the “driving away” aftr saving everyone but the one family member he didn’t stop to save …who then died. RIP
I'm confused. Did she know everyone else was leaving? If they assumed she got the alert did anyone e try calling? Sounds like there are multiple family members living in the same area.
He said he got all his family together but then mentions seeing his sisters car still in front of her house. Why on earth wouldn’t you check then and obviously you didn’t have all your family together cause you left one behind. I feel no sympathy for him!
Rip Evelyn and I’m sorry your family,ily left you behind without even checking on you before they left.
he probly assumed she was getting some last minute things and she was right behind him
She got the same alert as everyone else. He was concentrating on his grandmother 😢
Why would you leave her.
@@mcajack It's always funny when people in the comment section reveal that they too are awful people
@@jennifermarie3158He was able to get his wife, 1 yr old son, elderly mother who more than likely needed assistance this man looks like he is in his late 40’s early 50’s so his mother is probably in her 80’s couldn’t barely walk he. saved 3 people he couldn’t be that bad of a person.. He probably thought his sister being around his age could have got out.. they were knocking on doors they lost NuNu.
I mean man why is people ridiculing this man .. They did all of this with out the assistance of first responders.. It’s Pitch dark from the smoke, coughing, eyes watering, 95 degree winds it was probably 900 degrees with the heat and embers from the flames all around them. Power lines are sparking all around them. I mean some of these people in the comments obviously have never been in a fire where they had to flee with the clothes on their backs… 😮 This wasn’t a Hollywood movie this was real life.. If the firemen 🧑🏾🚒who are trained at rescuing and fighting fires are having a difficult time what do you expect ordinary citizens should be able to do..?
I mean people are saying some of the most heartless comments.. oh because he and his sister didn’t get along he let her die, he didn’t love his sister😮 where is the humane compassion for these people . Has anyone else noticed the heartbreaking devastation, trauma, hopelessness of these people.. come on we have to show loving compassion.. I wonder how many people could brave those conditions and saved lives.. I noticed he said he went inside and got his mother who more than likely was in the living room so he grabbed her to help her .
He was man enough to go into a burning house to save his mother.. this man in my eyes is a hero and his cousin also.. he had enough for-thought to mention his charitable foundation helping at risk youths and people suffering with diabetes this was the perfect time to mention it because he was on national television.. maybe people who care about helping others will see his video and donate to his foundation.
No one failed to mention how other people are using this opportunity to steal, price gouging and take advantage of people in a time of need. The reporter asked him if he had anything else to say and he mentioned his sister and his foundation once again he is a loving individual still thinking about helping other in time of need. Thank you Jennifer Maria for your kind words.. 😊
I love you LA
That's tough
Spare a thought for GAZA it comming to America 😢
Why is he promoting his program on the edge of his sister’s death. Sorry, but that is not right.
I know we all don’t know what we will do, but no one said a call to her personally. Was she in the house next door with the grandma/mother or another house? These haven’t gotten enough air time, we need to hear other stories without selfish self-promotion in the midst of a “loved” ones death.
This is the very reason this fire happened. It will haunt him for the rest of his days. Its like 9/11 when you hear of the numerous stories of how people had 2 choices, save themselves only or help others, go this way or go that way. That stuff sticks with those survivors to this day.
Agreed 💯
Totally agree. Selfish man.
This is unbelievable
Not blaming him…I just don’t understand why you wouldn’t at least call or check to make sure your Sister was alerted.. The exact same blessing that you were given by your friend.. especially knowing there were only a few precious moments to get out safe and obviously seeing her car should’ve been a reminder esp if the whole family was together, including the mother and the only person missing was the sister 😢
You have no idea how hectic it was with literal fire balls flying eveywhere and 60mph winds and seeing the fire coming your way in the distance. I was there. You lack empathy
@@julesrandolph7910I don't think she/he is showing signs of lacking empathy, I think it's a logical question. And he checked the next day😢
Bless these Brothers, their family and the community. Sorry for your loss.
My heart hurts for these guys and their loss. I can’t even imagine what they are dealing with right now.
EXCUSES!
The fact that you didn’t check on your sis as you all were leaving is really sad!!!!! She was your sister. This sibling strife in our community is tearing it apart.
I don’t understand why these ppl are waiting to the last minute to get out of their homes..They know these fires are spreading like crazy
How do you keep a straight face 🤯 and tell the media, in essence the world, that you left your sister? Then implied that although y'all didn't get along....it wasn't personal. Then promote your business? Sheesh 🙄....and don't anyone come on here talking about he is in shock. Shameful.
Yeah. I hope that he is making this up. Then again that would be sick! But to just leave her without checking to see if she was out… She could have been asleep, in the shower… When the friend came and told you. You saw her car. Then you made a point to say that you didn’t always get along… No judging but It’s confusing.
Exactly!! This man is sick!!
@juliajones3925
Exactly! I'm shocked why didn't he take her with the family???
Probably a better idea to not speculate....poor judgement on your part
Disgraceful
You did not care enough to stop and check up on your sister is beyond comprehension. That is disgusting Sir.
I visited Laurel Canyon in 2015 and the owner of the home told us be careful when we dispose of any cigarettes because the whole place will go up in fire. This should of never happened.
😢😢😢😢 sad.but 😊 u survived.
With all due respect, sounds like he saw her car when leaving and didn't care to check if she was ok because they weren't speaking. They only went back the next day and found her dead? Wow.
This is sad fr he should have left his mouth shut this mad ME sad fr he have to live with this for life 😮😢
Something ain't right. The family came back and told him it's time to go, He go grab his grandmother. And mother, wife kids, Your sister live right next door and you didn't go grab her or even think about going to grab her,
But you notice her car was still there, in the driveway as y'all was leaving, ain't nobody go over there and check. You didn't think about it until the next day. And your statement on the news, nobody know your relationship between you and your sister but the family, But you had to say, you know we didn't get along like that, why did he bring that up at that time, That got nothing to do with what happened.. And you didn't have one tear.
Umm you said what I was thinking
She still had the free will to leave and sadly she didn’t. I still would’ve asked her to leave and let her decline.
Dude its sad. Im here. Its chaos. You dont understand. He probably feels horrible and maybe they were at total odds and she was stubborn
@@msc2757What are you talking about. If you heard his statement, they never went to go get her. They didn't even check to see if she was in the house but He knew the grandma too old to notice but he noticed her car in the driveway. The whole family stayed together and left together but they round up each other and the whole family left together, They never went to her house, He never checked on her and told her let's go, her house is right across the street, they can see it from their house, That's how he noticed the car still in the driveway,
But he had the nerve to say, I know me and her didn't get along like that. What that got to do with the situation of what happened, why you want to bring that up after the fact You know you left her for dead.
He didn’t need her News obituary to be sprinkled with his contempt for her. He isn’t allowing her to rest in peace. He is getting the chip off his shoulder instead. I would’ve gave him more credit if he didn’t plug his business. But the pattern of his behavior and lack of tears is offputting. But the focus should be on prayers for the victims so I will leave it at that. Prayers up
Why didn't he stop when he saw her car still their when he went past her car. Sorry for your lost
I don't believe a word he's saying seems like he's enjoying his sister's death but made sure to promote his business.
Why didn't he stop when he saw her car on the way out?
Praying for your loss! Praying for all the families that are going through this.
This man failed his sister. Regardless to what issues you guys had. How hard was it to atleast call or get one of the other family member to call or run out abd quickly bang her door. Sad. May she rest in peace. 💐
OMG, I wish someone had rushed back to check on her. So sad
My condolences to you, all your family members, and friends.
These men explained the situation well so everyone can understand how horrific this fire is!
Condolences and prayers to each person affected by this devastating fire. RIP Evelyn 🫶🏽
Celestial from "The Masters Voice Prophecy Blog" Prophesied this would happen back in 2018- 2024
Im sorry, I've been praying for y'all since it started
Gaza is comming to AMERICA DO ENJOY 😢
He did the right thing save his wife and kids first and his momma. He is not everyone superhero. Get over it folks
Then he shouldn't have mentioned her at all. He should have left her name out of his mouth. If she's not worth a knock on the door, then don't mention her at all.
You cant put it all on him. There were other family members too that could have reached out. They all failed
Malice is ridiculous in times of emergency and danger. Life is too precious. Material possession is replaceable. My condolences to the families that lost love ones.
So he left his sister to die alone.
Deepest Condolences to all affected.
Listen carefully he said "fire bombs" all around. This ain't no regular fire. It was calculated.
I feel so bad for these guys. I’m sure the first responders are doing everything possible to get this under control.
This is just too devastating. To all the families who have lost their homes, a friend, a loved one or a fond pet, I'm just so so sorry! I'm just so sorry. 😢😢
A sad situation all around. Family disputes and conflicts are a reality. It is essential to check in on your loved ones, especially if relationships are strained, and even more so during a natural disaster.
Why is he promoting his program that has nothing to do with fire victims
He can do wtf he wants.
@1:37 He noticed his sister's car was still in front of the house as he was leaving??? Did he not bang on her door? Were they estranged? He told this same story on 60 Minutes. I'm sorry for his loss, but the situation with his sister doesn't make a bit of sense to me. Yes, I know he doesn't owe me any explanation, but he's the one whose choosing to go on different TV stations to tell this story. He just drove off without even banging on her door???
So so sorry for your loss ,your heartbreak and the loss of all during this tragedy 💔
Not one tear from this guy
He took his wife and his baby and didn’t grab his sister
And his elderly mother.. 😲
I am breaking down! This is so real and hurtful it hits your soul I am hurting for your loss sir we should count our blessings in life thankyou for sharing your story you are in my heart !!!!
