All that intelligence and privilege and they were still degenerates.
It has always bothered me about the double standards of mankind! ☠️
I’m new to your channel and I’m hooked. Thank you for such great content.
these two guys weren't brothers, they were friends.
Butt buddies
They were "brothers in crime"!
Some people are just evil, not mentally ill. I wonder how many more children he abused after he was set free. Anyone who could associate with him must have some evil within themselves.
I think your right. But I wonder if its a genetic throw back or some kind of demon subjective soul. I've seen siblings who were raised equally where one was of very good heart and character, and the other ....wasn't...tortured animals.
@@davidlancaster6941 Yes, Cain and Able in the Bible tells us all we need to know about human nature
I concur
What they were were sociopaths' arrogant narcissist's that thought they were smarter than anybody
Not necessarily, but maybe. It’s possible that Leopold was reformed. ????
What this documentary failed to say is that Loeb was a cousin of Bobby Franks. This is the real reason Bobby Franks got into the car that day. He had played tennis with Loeb on numerous occasions and, because he was also family, Bobby had no reason to fear getting into the vehicle. He truly had no inkling of what was about to take place because he trusted a family member. So sad...

It's truly amazing that Leopold and Loeb avoided the gallows; an incredible piece of work by Clarence Darrow - America's top litigator at that time. In the sentencing hearing, Darrow faced an uphill battle to avoid a death sentence. He relied heavily on various medical/psychological; and the judge was clearly influenced by their prolific report and testimony. This is a great example of how the justice system favours the wealthy. ...
did Chicago have the hanging law then?
It appears not much about the American justice system has changed. "Boys will be boys!"
@@creolelady182 They were facing the death penalty, but Darrow was absolute keen wit and had Loeb and Leopold were a test case for Darrow. He had his clients change their plea from innocent to guilty. That pulled him from a jury trial because the boys had already admitted they murdered Bobby. So that's out. But pleading for their lives to avoid the death penalty, that was what Darrow was doing. He hated the death penalty and he got the one judge that had a long history of showing compassion. He also had to sway public opinion. He's closing statement was a 12 hour oration about why we should not put to death anyone. The judge decided that being put to death at 18 and 19 then, they were younger when they killed Bobby. So the Judge gave the life (about 20 years) Plus an additional 99 years. This story while entertain have some minor mistakes here. The young men were gay. So while they probably "dated" they didn't actually have hetero dates.
Loeb had a reported IQ of 210, Leopold had a bright IQ of 160.
true it does favour the wealthy in many respects but i m still glad they did nt kill leopold. i feel he was either lying about how sorry he was ,(which i don t think he was ) or he was truthful.
iIf i would have been there to interview him i would have ask him if he still read nietzsche, and if so did his enterpretation of him change
@@creolelady182 yes it did
Thank you for this channel. It is like old Perry Mason shows with all of the crime's detail upfront.
Privileged sons often run amuck. Privileged daughters are used thru marriage to improve social standing. Leopold and Loeb represent the worst. Too intelligent, too arrogant, and too privileged. Too much time on their hands. Poor people work, rich people plot.
They were friends and even had a relationship so definitely not brothers. Leopold loved Loeb and was so obsessed with him that even when he was old and lived in Puerto Rico he talked about him and had a picture of him, I think calling them brothers is a huge mistake.
This crime lead to at least two films. Compulsion by Orson Wells, and Rope by Hitchcock.
and "Swoon"
The novel by Meyer Levin on which Welles based his film is worth reading. Levin knew both of them, attended UC at the same time and even dated a girl who also dated Loeb.
They have young people like this today
I knew of this case. Had read about it. Shane that they weren't executed. But I had never heard of what happened after they went to prison and had no clue that one lived to be freed back into society.
Leopold was killed in Prison by another inmate
@@creolelady182 loeb was the one killed
Maybe meant brothers
in social class, education.
One was a distant
cousin of the victim.
All that money doesn't replace
emotion, affection, love.
The look in thier eyes is lonely
🤺💐
Loeb, was the cousin. He lived across the street from them.
Looking forward to this
Excellent 👍
You have the sins of too much wealth.
I never knew the movie "Compulsion" was a true story!!!
The film was Rope by Hitchcock was also inspired by these two lovely chaps.
In 1945 - 46 I attended Nursery School at the former Bobby Franks home. The Franks house still stands today in Hyde Park.
"Brothers" lol that's a new one You replaced the L for Br and the V for th .
Brotherly love. If you know what I mean.
Narrator prof Linder has inappropriate smirks throughout. Can't be smirking in such a heinous crime.
The 1922 murder victim was second cousin of one of the murderers.
They were not brothers.
Creepy guy! Should’ve have been released from prison.
Agreed
They were not brothers....please change your title.
They were not brothers
I would be surprised at how many criminals have higher i ques It is said that genius is a art of Insanity
I've heard of this case but didn't realise they only got prison sentences
Yeah except, Leopoldo and Loeb weren’t brothers. But don’t let that get in the way of your story.
yes, it took me a while to unravel that!!
I think because Richard had everything and did not have to do anything he lived in his head. And got bored genius does not make him mature
Notice at 20.16, the newspaper headline spells 'clues' as "CLEWS"....and at 20.20, 'kidnapping' is spelled, "KIDNAPING", with another misspelling of 'clues' at 20.22.
Darrow was promised all this money and only got a small fee
Did they say he was in the back alleys doing drugs and having illicit sex in San Juan ??
Audio is so low have to use CC
He was never going to get them Fitzgerald was right the rich are different they are treated with kid gloves
I think Nathan was just plain evil and I think he was satisfied that he illegal one Oberon the cops and society he was a skilled liar and did everything to get out of prison which he did he never should remorse for his crime just remorse that he got caught he said killing Bobby was like killing a bug with his shoe pure evil both of them could of done so much with their gifts god gave them and they choose evil
Just like Aaron Hernandez
The Last of the Famous International Playboys
A truly fascinating case. It really was the first modern crime and the kind of media circus that surrounded it is familiar to folks today. 100 years on and it still captivates. The arrogance of the rich entitled smart asses who were emotionally stunted. The homosexual aspect to their relationship and the evil synergy they created all captivate the public. This is an excellent documentary that goes into a lot more detail of what happened after the conviction which provides far greater insight to the lives of the couple.
Hardly "a ladies' man"; they had a homosexual relationship... but a good presentation anyway.
Too many commercials‼😂
I don’t see any commercials
I have to explain the importance of headlines to you, dear Adrienne.
Your Headline states "brothers" ( nothing about " blood brothers " or brothers in blood ). Why do you think it matters to state the truth in headlines? Because there are as many out there that read only the headline as there are IQ challenged people. Especially in the US. Trust me, I know, I lived in the US for 18 years.
Back to the subject though.
Why do you think the US is as effed up as it is? Because you have all kinds of incompetent lying fools and racist garbagge out there that spread untruth and evil lies. So do the newspapers - and a wrong headline is enough to stick with brainless people for it to call it "facts" without even reading the article . So you see misstating something in the headline is a crucial mistake.
Wow, glad you moved. I live in the US and am not any of those things!
Weren't brothers some speculation they were lovers
Not speculation; they did have a sexual relationship. It wasn’t talked about for a long time because of homophobia but it is 100% fact that they were sleeping together. The general story seems to be they started sleeping together soon after meeting, Leopold was madly in love with Loeb whereas Loeb was mostly indifferent to sex in general, but made a pact to have sex with Leopold if Leopold agreed to commit crimes with him. Leopold had little interest in committing crimes himself but rather did it because he was in love with/sexually attracted to Loeb, and Loeb used that to his advantage.
Very far from brothers indeed.
I wonder if Leopold and Loeb had never met if the two young men would have turned to crime. The two seemed to feed off each other's delusional thinking. @@shannonoreilly4695
More Caucasus mountains Caucasians being weird
Loeb and Leopold are no brothers, 2 totally different families, fact ,- if you want to make money with telling people about crime stories THEN GET YOUR FACTS STRAIT .
Greetings from Frankfurt Germany
The narrator actually says the 2 young men were not biologically related but were "Brothers in Blood". The facts are indeed straight. Greetings from The U.S. of America!
Thank you....amazing how sloppy so many of these stories are reported!
@@AKing69 replying late but whatever, the problem also that they weren’t “brothers in blood” they were a couple
They weren’t brothers. Do a better job of your homework
I can promise you this they didn't kill that boy the minute he got in the car they took him out sexually abused him as what they did. It may have happened way they said but I don't believe for a second they killed him in the first seconds that he got in the car that's just my Ludacris I'm sure. Opinion
Your Opinion Is Wrong.They Abused That Boy And Kill Him.Thats What A WS Do.
Nope. No evidence.
Were they gay?
yes, they had a sexual relationship with each other. The "Wife" on leaving prison, was an attempt to make him appear respectable but it was just a facade
@@margaretwhittaker2291 there’s no proof that richard was. he only engaged in that relationship because nathan was blackmailing him
Yes, and there was evidence to point out the possible sexual assault of Bobby Franks. They found the evidence during the boy's autopsy.
@@MC32595 Nope. Loeb promised to have sex with Leopold if he helped him commit a murder.
