Justice Under Controversy: Shocking Lincoln County School Shooting | The Prosecutors | Real Crime

- "The Prosecutors " double episode:
Episode 1 - Young Love tells the story of a high school student whose overpowering obsession for his girlfriend led him to murder a rival for her affections in the parking lot of their high school in Fayetteville, Tennessee. The alleged killer, Jacob Davis, was an honor student involved in the drama club at his high school. The victim was a football player. The shooting shocked the small Tennessee town. The prosecution’s task was to dismantle the defense’s argument that the shooter was acting under a diminished mental capacity and to prove to a jury that his act was premeditated.
Episode 2 - This is the story of two young men whose paths tragically crossed on September 29, 1998 in Houston, Texas. One was a sheriff’s deputy while the other, like his father, stayed on the wrong side of the law. The deputy made a routine traffic stop one night that ended with him being brutally shot to death by the other young man, Michael Lopez. Prosecutors argued that 17-year-old Lopez deserved to die, but would the jury agree?

![Luke Combs - Ain’t No Love In Oklahoma (From Twisters: The Album) [Official Music Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/J6YlaeACE4E/mqdefault.jpg)
I’m from the area and went to the same high school.
The name of the girl was Tanya Bishop, not Carol.
Most people around here believe Jacob should have been released by now
Nick Creson spent the whole school year bullying Jacob Davis.
The only reason he got such a harsh sentence was because Nick Creson came from a popular family and was on the school football team, and football is all what most people care about in this town
Maybe that's why they said: "Some of the names in this case have been changed for their protection"
Doesn't work on the internet lol
The teacher was wrong talking to students about the affair.
Driving 12 miles home & back to school was premeditation.
Reffered to as 1st degree murder.
I admired the prosecutor straight to the point. I love the Tn. Law, but it's too late for him to say that he will give anything to bring him back. Repentance comes at last !
😂nothing wrong with the teacher talking to her students about what’s going on in their life
I guess they both learned Carol is not worth it
and to Carol those men are no worth ether
@@thomashninan6708 to see
Prosecutors back in the day went hard. Today, he'd be charged with a felony aggravated assault, plead down to a misdemeanor and set free on $1000 bond.
Maybe the voice he was hearing was telling him 'No", a word he'd possibly never heard before?
All that grief over some cheating clam.
He loved her, love makes you do crazy things
Please never use that phrase for women again. Were you raised by wolves???
He turned down a scholarship and ruined himself for what
She was sleeping with someone else and bragged about a suitable pregnancy test. She is the instigator of the crime. One is in the grave and the other is in prison
he didnt ruin himself "for" her. many people get cheated on, not many end up committing a mass shooting. hes a selfish, violent coward with the emotional regulation of a toddler.
Ikr.and she obviously has a new man....such a waste
@@subliminalaudios.8895he was young and quite unstable
Why did Carol have to say anything to Jacob about shopping previously for a pg. test? I have taken in three high school girls at various times in my life. All three of them thrived on drama. If there was nothing going on, they would make sure to store something up, even if it took a lie. Groping for attention. Although there was nothing criminal about her actions, she certainly played a big role into driving him toward his immature emotions. Children don’t understand that young relationships are but a learning curve toward lessons of possible sound one’s in the future. The newness of love can be so intense.
That's teenagers for you. Their brains are still developing. The law may consider you adult at 18, but you're not fully developed yet.
That's their species for ya lol.
The school failed both young men. The letters should have been acted on by the principal on the day he gave the letter to the teacher. The police should have been alerted to track and find him since he talked about harming himself and someone else. He would have been detained or committed for treatment. This should never have happened. I was also most sad for the killers mum who lives with the guilt of having failed to see the anger in her son. And she has to still live in that town. Her son will be released from jail when he will be over 75yrs old. A life wasted and destroyed by a senseless killing. And as for Carol she will also carry part of the guilt for the rest of her life.
I thought it said she took the letter to the principal and the principal tried to contact him but he was already on his way back with the gun.
Please ..stop it..that punk was going to do what he wanted ..anyways..period..HIS PARENTS FAILED HIM..BY NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THEIR KID..
@@BellaLeoLicorice yes. But principle should have next called police after not being able to get the killer. Or even called his parents to express concern with the contents of the letter. Oh but I guess "what if.." does not help here but a lesson may have been learned.
This could have been avoided if she had not been so frivolous with the boys' feelings.
When we are young, it's not that we don't care about the other person's feelings... We don't even understand the full depth of our own feelings, and sometimes we end up bouncing around from one good thing to the next - because we don't know that we really shouldn't promise to do things or not to do things until we even understand what the hell we're talking about. Promising to love one another forever, is a big promise that even when we are adults we still shouldn't be making that promise because forever is an awful long time and we are growing and changing everyday and it's not fair that we think that we can even make the promise that we do. It's not always done to be cruel.
Becoming sexually active before we're 25 probably doesn't help any of us. It's a loaded weapon that scientists still don't understand. It can be very painful and lead some people with fragile support systems and poor understanding of hormones and emotions at that young age leads people to do terrible terrible things. Not because they are monsters but because they don't have the wisdom or ability to really handle the power of these emotions. Movies and TV shows don't show realistic expectations either.
It's kind of like why you don't let a 5-year-old kid drive a tractor trailer ,(semi) down the interstate... We don't know how to manage or wield the power of painful emotions.
@@jasonhansen8996 25 ? Sounds a bit prudish
I was about to start a drinking game with every time the Defense said 'Diminished Capacity.'
😂😂😂
🍺 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
I can't imagine why boys, diminished capacity or not, would snap living in a culture which constantly demonizes them.
After only a few episodes, you would probably find yourself in a state of "diminished capacity" of doing anything other than watching another episode - and pouring another shot.
Carol Should have BEEN CHARGED as an accessory!!! This ONLY happened because of HER- WHY would she bring up buying a test with the next man??? She plays a much Larger role than law enforcement brought to light! Much LARGER Role. Curious how her adult years panned Out!?
Tonya Bishop, that was the name of the girl on the love triangle
It takes a very sober intelligent mind to ask for an attorney first off... that killer kid had all that diminished capacity preplanned
Well, Carol needs to think long and hard about being faithful and honest. Other people are not playthings to be messed with. If you are old enough to do the jumping into bed thing, you are old enough to take responsibility for your behaviour and the consequences. I suggest Carol's next (deluded) boyfriend hires himself a bodyguard - or better still, looks elsewhere.
Err so who did she murder ?
your old enough scale is sketch js.
True. Also people need speak the truth about females, instead of this myth that humans have for some reason made up about them. The reality is, it's males who remain respectable, waiting for something real, while females generally don't even think about it. The myth SHOULD be true, but it's not. Say a woman makes someone a hot dog with mustard and the customer says they don't want mustard. Female logic says it's perfectly acceptable to just scrape the mustard off the bun and all is right in the world.
@@efstathiostavlaridis4727NICK She should Been CHARGED AS WELL!!!
She’s guilty of being a ho. That’s it. Dude has to learn to control his emotions. That lack of control cost him 55 years of his life and a kid his whole life.
The defense attorney looks like an actor from the FBI Files.
Why hire a balding old guy to play the high school victim?
Initially, it made me assume he was a teacher, not a student...
Went to this high-school LCHS class of 13 it was still talked about in passing amongst seniors. We had a school shooting threat back in 2010 where most of the old school staff got anxious and we spent an entire day on a soft lock down. Also as a bit of info if memory serves me there are four roll doors in the back close to the student/staff parking which the responding shop teacher was able to react as fast as he was able to.
Carol is the cause of all this tragedy.
A man who couldn’t handle his gf cheating on him, years ago they would fist fight, now they shoot each other!
Carol is not the cause of anyting
@@thomashninan6708 just another slag digging for drama and she got it with interest
Thats not her real name. This happened in my little home town. I was 8 years old when this happened. I remembered the day this happened. I graduated from that school in 2008.
Cops should not be alone in the police car. When stopping a vehicle on the hi ways one cop investigates the passengers while the other draws his gun covering his partner.
Let’s be honest- the adults who were told about what he wanted to do or read the letters should be charged with something. You have a responsibility to protect children at school
that is it exactly. what did her parents teach her about life/cheatin, oh wait thats not their job, its the schools and thats where it ends up, aschools parkin lot. No lm jokin, thats the problem, parents dont teach kids they learn all that from social media, lol, social media sucks, get away from it ad live a real life, thats the saddest, stop watchin and live it more
They didn’t get the chance to
He was already on his way bent on killing
So killing the rival, someone she chooses over you, is going to make her go back to you 😂😂😂
😅😅
This always baffles me lol
jealousy makes people go crazy..
Was she choosing one over the other, or just playing both ends against the middle?
these are teens so I really don't think she masterminded this. My first GF when we were teens cheated on me and it hurt like nothing else ever. Today, I dont even think about it. We are carefree and stupid when we are young... @@user-nx5ws7rf2f
I think the girlfriend should have been charged
I’m not in disagreement with your feelings, but what could she have been charged with?
There are no laws against anything she did.
@@michaellaird6192please correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t it accessory to murder that she would’ve been charged with if she was looked into
@@keisha1109 no she wouldn’t be charged with anything. She didn’t plan to have him murdered and she didn’t harbor (hide) a murderer after the fact. Sadly she had a three-way love affair and that is not illegal but this act does cause a lot more cases like this one.
I believe that officers should always work in a group of at least two.
The officer should have never chased the suspect into the bushes.
It was too dangerous, especially if he was by himself.
He should have just called for backup.
He should've asked the other officer in the 2nd car to back him up from the beginning.
I don't know about the defenses approach to demonstrate his clients fragile mental state. In my mind that also supports his client planning to murder his rival.
As a teenager, we were taught firearms safety in school as a prerequisite to getting a hunting licence. We would go duck hunting in season at daybreak and continue on to school afterward with guns and fishing rods routinely carried on a rack in our trucks. Every rural house had a shotgun, a .22 rifle and a broom behind the kitchen door with ammunition on the hat rack nearby. I lost friends to car accidents, farm accidents but I never remember any firearm accidents, certainly no crimes committed with them.
The answer is not to remove firearms but to focus on the family issues and mental health of those most likely to go on to commit the horrendous shootings we have come to fear.
If a person drives drunk and kills someone, we punish the offender, remove his right to drive and deal with the addiction. We dont remove the right for everyone else to own a vehicle.
If you think a 17-year-old school shooter would be charged as a juvenile in Tennessee I have a unicorn to sell you. In Tennessee they’re still trying to find a way to charge a 10-year-old as an adult but those pesky international human rights laws keep getting in the way.
Jacob had been bullied in school
Even his girlfriend bullied him emotionally
He should not be punished so severely, he’s only 18 and had no crime records
So sad, no forgiveness
God have mercy
🙏❤
Interesting story! You need to keep music down a little bit! Talking over, you can't always hear everything!
I'm from Lincoln Co and actually go to the same high-school and I just found out about this shooting. Apparently, my mom has a lot of info about this since she was at most a freshman at the high-school
Does Coach T still work there sorry was scrolling through comments and noticed your comment. Also there's alot of stuff that's happened at LCHS in the past 20+ years some of us Alumni could go into.
This happened one year before Columbine.
So sad the boy died May He Rest In Peace 🕊️.
yeah right
He needs to be in prison forever for what he did!
The defense attorney in the first story looks and sounds like Gary Busey. It was hard to get that out my head as I watched.
I would never throw my life away or take someone else's life for any woman not a chance
2nd case. If you don't want to go to jail, stop breaking the law. Easy peasy.
So let's say someone killed a family member of your and the cops aren't doing anything about it amd you know who the person is. You going to just sit and let it go. I bet not. Not saying these kid should of done these. But until your in the kids shoes you can't say what you would do.
@@thefreedomishereFor one you don't know know me , so don't go thinking you know what I'd do.
Never assume !!!!
@@NoeletteMason-rn3wy calm down Karen
@@thefreedomishere 🤣Karen😜🤣 Please that's so old it's got cobwebs.🕸️🖕🖕🖕🤣🤣🤣Get a grip Noddy.🖕
I’m sure that Carol Taylor somehow felt a victim of a story of her own initiation . Although people will say she wasn’t to realize the consequences of her poor morals . She poured the petrol that ignited with someone else’s spark . The perpetrator was an idiot , the victim a fool and Taylor just a lowlife
In the first case, the three main "teen" actors appear at least 5-7 years too old for their roles haha.
Receding hairline and all!
You think that's important in a docu? Really?
@@molliemae6855lol you have ridiculously high hairline standards
High school/teenage romance happens to us all TOO SOON. The intensity of emotional feelings back then verses now that I'm 47 is hugely different. The worst thing about us is often the best things about us. How intensely we feel things before we have the full faculty to comprehend our feelings is a double edge. When we are kids all we really believe is what we feel, and after a few years it usually mellows out but these things are tragic when we feel too much too fast and before we can even evaluate things or even know that "the heartache won't always last forever" we just know how we feel. I thank GOD that I didn't have something like that happen to me - If the Love of my life had been with someone else back in HS, I might have found myself hurting someone too. I think it's even worse now, instant and constant ability to communicate with nobody knowing what's being said... I think kids today are more likely to handle emotional trauma much more violently because it's everywhere, and we don't share one single phone in a house... My parents knew how long I was on the phone, and heard half of what was being said and could figure out what was going on. I pray for the kids of the future. It's going to be worse, not better.
The first love of a boy from a crappy home situation is going to be something he feels strongly enough to kill over. Absolutely. 100% you can bet your life on the intensity he feels. I know 1st hand. I also know that my first love is my ONLY love still to this day. But I would have killed him or her or both if somebody cheated on me back then, I've grown up and matured but I do know how lucky I am that I got the right girl from the start.
That's why in scripture teenage girls who became sexually active were to be married. But we don't want our children to get married because we somehow think we know better than Adonai.
I fail to understand why adults think that kids don't need guidance.
Even animals have the sense to supervise their offspring. Shalom, L'hllel, Amen.
The lack of respect on all levels self,authority and others
Morals and discipline homes (family life)and society has lost all that
Just pray for our family
Poor Nick he was failed in so many levels
I dislike defense attorneys! They lie and twist the truth to make their clients look good!
He was pissing me off talking all that bull shit.
This clown was straight up guilty of 1st degree murder and that pathetic pos lawyer was making all the excuses under the sun for him.
I'm glad the jury got it right.
LoL , same goes for the other side... They are all lawyers.
If they didn't, we wouldn't have a justice system. We would be like the middle east.
So you dislike the constitution? Got it
That's their job. Both sides do that
51 years are yoy kidding me. This serial rapist in Ny, who murdered one woman, has just been released. He did barely w6 yrs. Id apoeal thus. A teenager, his harmones raging, first time in love and the girl cheats in him. They argue, she promises never again to see him. Next thing he knows, shes pregnant with his baby. Some teenagers get mad immed. Natural. Then yell or beat up the girlfriend, or instead of hitting a woman, go after the boyfriend. Still angry, it was alk one moment of anger. A passion killing. Not 1st degree or 51 years. This DA wants to make a name for himseld. Even having the audacity of mentioning the colunbine shooting. How dare he use the law for his political future! Hope it gets appealed.. Yes he made a bad choice, yes the girfriend made a wrong move as did the victim. He took a life while out of his mind in love. But half a century in jail? When everyone else, for 1st degree murder too gets 20 to life. So this DA oughta look within
Remember back in 1998 when we all had to live our 16:9 lives in 4:3
I’m 1998 criminals feared the police. Now criminals are the victims an cops the criminals.
Im sickened by this young lady, why why would you be shopping for a pregnancy test with one young man and bring up that you had been there prior buying a pregnancy test with your “boyfriends” arch nemesis? Literally putting it in his face you had had sex with the rival? Shame on you!!! You had to have liked this competition over you, this was shameful.
A harlot playing the boys off against each other
Of course you blame a teenage girl for a teenage boy going home to get a gun and returning to the school to kill another teenager instead of just breaking up with her. His self esteem was so low that he thought he’d never find anyone else tho. He was scared to even leave for college because he had to watch her.
@Godzooky It's not her fault that he committed murder, but she isn't innocent in this either. She was the catalyst for these events.
Going to the same school as your partner isn't a sign of low self esteem. It's understanding that you don't want distance to strain the relationship. 🤡
@@TomikaKelly thank you! My original comment had NOTHING to do with anyone blaming her for the murder. But she played a part that led to this tragedy.
I watched her testimony and, believe me, she was enjoying the attention
Teenage “love”. All over a girl that initiated it. Now the teacher that talked to other students about the affair, that was overly immature and unprofessional.
So sad!
Certainly not an isolated incident as this type cannot get over jealousy and could well do it again and again and again. Jealousy is a precursor to violence
the defense attorney looks like a mini Gary Busey 😂 😂
59:05 he said the workers will start waking up and coming to work and finding out that the first officer in the history of their dept has been killed in the line of duty but then followed up saying that’s what happens to police. So which is it? This y’all first officer killed or this is normal?
Subtitles please! The music is way too loud.
Press the cc button?
@@bentucker2301 Auto generated is shit.
The teacher gossiping is So immature and painful she failed him as well
They’re saying if you don’t get enough sleep you’re gonna turn into a murderer
It's a well known torture used for hundreds of years.Sleep depravation...
Through sleeping you rest, think 😢wise and discover more.
45:35
Don’t want to relive this tragedy over.
A lot of women can take a sentiment from Carol. Don't treat your man wrong.
Over a two-timing girl…😒
he is not nuts just a plain killer
She plays with two men emotional love=jealousy= morder for possy ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
They still use the Wilhelm scream and right at the start
The prosecutor in the first case was my American History teacher in high school in that town 49 years ago. I believe he was going to law school at night. He quit smoking during the school year and said he would start back smoking on his 72nd birthday when he reached the end of his normal life expectancy. I moved from there before this happened and sometimes wonder if he started back smoking.
Jacob‘s issue was with Carol why waste the bullet on somebody that was just there filling a need that Carol had the Jacob couldn’t scratch
I would have peed myself being that close to the shooter and victim.
Shame on Carol Taylor!
Why?? Shame on the person that can’t handle rejection so much that he chose to take someone’s life.
@@Godzookymight be the fact she was barebacking the both of them while playing musical fathers with pregnancy tests?
You should go see a doctor about that...urologists these days..they just want to check out yer'junk.
He wasn’t rejected he was two timed. Carol seems like a skank.
Great narrator.
This is what cheating causes.
This is what being a weak ass punk causes
So being sleep deprived gives you the right to kill someone? What kind of logic is that lol.
What was the original name of the show? When it was on tv?
Carol should have been charged as an accessory. Her actions started this whole chain of events. She toyed with both young men's emotions.
She couldn't have known Jacob Davis would actually shoot his rival. Her actions are disgusting, tho!
Not "Carol". Tonya Bishop.
Couldn’t agree more!
Would you say the same if it was a man sleeping around? It’s not a crime to have sex with more than 1 person.
@@tracyshaffer4510 well lying and cheating on people that love u isnt a good thing to do. it might have consequences like these.
In the hood, Jacob would be labeled a simp! He went out like a straight up sucka. Nick died, Jacob went to prison, and Carol was out giving it up to the next man.
Classy individuals
Someone needs to counsel the ignorant girls about the birds and the bees.
Very sad tragedy
If he shot & killed his parents than how is she working where they said she is???
that first prosecutor for vp!! kids deserve to feel safe
Oh, so the law has the right to execute? The law is words on paper. It's not a living thing. It can't be hurt in any way shape or form. Living creatures can be hurt. Just want to point that out.
I guess the freedom to bring a gun to school is more important than the freedom to not be shot because of what someone's girlfriend said.
Why did the cop chased the killer in the dark? Cops should be told not to chase a criminal in the dark specially in the woods and when alone.
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Carol is “Tonya Bishop” per court records
Minute 28:16 kinda sounds like a slowed down version of the Super Mario 2 boss battle music 😂
Why are we surprised when young people have sexual relationships without thinking about the consequences?
It’s possible to remain chaste, have great relationships, and then marry after getting to really know one another, likes and dislikes, values, moral guidelines, what money means to each, child rearing concepts etc.
Everyone is in a hurry today.
When the current boyfriend gave up a scholarship to attend community college with her- that was a red flag.
1990s and still happening?
5 mins into the first story I knew it would have something to do with "possession of a kitty". sure enough. what it is about kitty that makes str8 guys insane.
That was not a.22 caseing that was put into that bag 9:04
The first story he only should have gotten 2 degree murder, and should only get 20 years. The second one was guilty as hell.
How can you mess with two guys at that age, I was smoking weed and drinking way before I got into guys. I bet she exactly like her mama
Carol Taylor's real name is Tonya Bishop. But i could think of another word that suits her best
He Is hoping that the opposition will stop seeing him as a monster so that if he goes back to court he can get a lesser sentence with their backing
carol must have had that golden snatch
In my opinion, her beauty was average at best. Also in my opinion, the true beauty of a woman is what's in her heart ♥. Just my opinion and thank you in advance. 😊

Intact, pretty disappointed not hearing nothing about the person who brought up all this tragedy among both men am really disappointed because this’s why many are cheating in relationship
Oh wow, that is a very young Kelly Siegler :)
Yep. That was way before she got caught withholding exculpatory evidence to "win" a conviction..... twice.

Tried asking his parents?
Or no point?
