      I think that Joseph was abused and neglected by his parents and that trauma wasn’t handled well by him. He had horrible parents and could only cope the only way he knew how to avoid future abuse.

      I agree. I’m wandering if maybe the stepmom was the less mean of the 2 parents? And when he heard his dad and stepmom arguing about her moving out, he thought that he would end up going with his father and was terrified by that thought. It’s just a sad case in general. That boy deserved better.

      I think life's hard enough without a kid having some kind of FAS from mother giving them issues mentally/physically. Then compounded by a constant upheaval in their life, deprivations and violence, its really only going to end up one way: Badly
      With any luck (because there's been precious little of that so far in his life), there's a lifetime ahead of them to mend, be counseled and can hopefully avoid the cycle of violence, substance abuse and ending up in correctional institutions. There's a lot of work from the state and community to break that cycle but i really hope it can be done in this case.

    The child was told by his father that the house would be set aflame after fire alarms were disabled. That was a serious threat on the lives staying in the house. That child did not want to die, so he disabled the threat. Previous state interventions had failed the child and his sister.

    • @swedishmeatball4382
      @swedishmeatball4382 Год назад +8

      Yeah, many children cannot grasp that video games and cartoons are different than the real world (or all; but there might be a few that are aware of the distinction).
      There was a case in Norway in 1994 where a 5 year old girl was beaten to death. Two boys, aged 5 and 6, confessed to beating her, since no one ever suffered from being beaten in cartoons and the TV series they watched. It is debatable if the confession swould have held up under scrutiny, especially considering the sexual undertones to the murder that these boys would have been very young to carry out. However, I am not overly familiar with the more intricate details of the case in question.

    I ran counseling groups for over 2300 violent men during a four year period in the 1990's. One thing I learned from this was the obvious fact mentioned by Dr. Grande: Children learn from their parents, the good and the bad. A big part of how abusive behavior becomes a cycle is a result of this.
    I hope Joseph can find a path to healthy behavior. I think his terrible act of killing his terrible father was a simple case of self-preservation in the face of his father's threat to burn down the house.
    Ironically, the father taught Joseph what to do. This case is complex and heart-breaking.
    I remember when this case happened. Thanks, Doctor, for shining your light on this.

    This is so sad. This poor kid was in fear of his life due to overhearing his dad say he is going to burn the house down, then when the fighting between his Dad and step mum would have put him into a PTSD feeling of dread. And the poor kid thought life was like a video game and his Dad would get another life. This kid has been so wronged by society, just for being born into a non desirable family. A complete tragedy. I am slightly surprised by your analysis. To be in fear of your life in your home, then the trauma of adults fighting heightening that fear. Maybe he was protecting himself and his sister in his mind

      I don't believe that determination was made. "Mental health professionals claimed that he didn't understand society's concept of right and wrong." That's not exactly saying he didn't grasp the difference itself. In any event, it was found that he did, in fact, kill his father. All things considered, ten years in juvie isn't a bad outcome. Given the violent trajectory he was on prior to the shooting, it might actually have been the best placement for him.

      The kid said that he knew shooting his father was wrong. When you're brought up to hate & to use violence to solve problems, you don't think about right or wrong; you think only about revenge. I understand that based on analogous experience. I didn't think about right or wrong, just shoot to punish. Fortunately, my gun wasn't loaded.

  • @yappysgirl5573

    It seems like it should be considered self defense when you are only 10, grow up seeing this level of violent and dysfunctional behavior, and hear your violent father state that he will burn the house down after removing the batteries from the smoke detectors. And you know that there is no one else to keep it from happening. I can't imagine the level of fear the kid must've experienced, and he probably felt like he had no choice. However, of course he needs treatment and help so he might have a slim chance of turning his young life around

      My sister was friends with a girl that had FAS, that was back in primary school in the early 90s. She had so many challenges because of her biological parents, but was a really sweet and nice girl. Her foster parents adopted her and she was so happy to have a family and adoptive siblings. But she was very gullible and easy to manipulate, so I'm dreading what her life has developed into later on. My sister back then was shocked how easy some nasty kids could come along and talk her into bad ideas. My sis, as a child, noticed how the girl made no difference in trust between a friend of several years and complete strangers. Horrifying to think what could happen in the lives of FAS affected people even if they are not violent themselves.

An "outsider,non-user" could be someone with connections to law enforcement plus they bring no dope connections. This has been my observation from being part of the recovery community for several years.

    I can't help but feel bad for Joseph. If he had been raised in a normal home he no doubt would have been a completely different child. He was at a disadvantage before he was ever born. I think Joseph was terrified he'd end up with his father after the split and for whatever reason he didn't want that. So in his immature mind he thought by killing his father he would automatically end up with his stepmother. He no doubt didn't think far enough ahead regarding the consequences of his actions.

    I could completely relate to way Joseph did what he did. I grew up in a very abusive household and I had to defend myself numerous times from my stepfather including picking up a knife to threaten him with it while he was beating me.
    I literally had to pick up a knife to stop my stepfather from beating me when I was only 12 years old.

She blames his mental issues only. Maybe if he wasn’t suffering so much at home, he would have had a chance. These extreme beliefs cause death & damage globally….so sad that our world can fall victim to many hateful ways. History repeats itself when we don’t learn from it.

    I don't think you can hold a 10 year old abused child responsible for something like this.
    Does he need some kind of intervention? Absolutely. Prison? No.
    Raising a violent hurting child in prison will only make things worse.

He definitely needs to have consequences and some intense therapy. Hopefully, he can be rehabilitated and grow up to be a decent member of society. What an awful situation.

    I’m originally from Southern California (Orange County) and about 23 years ago, for a time I worked in Riverside county. I can tell you that although Riverside has some decent neighborhoods, there are some seedy areas! And ironically, in spite of SoCal being extremely diverse ethnically, some desert communities out there have some home grown neo-Nazi groups, whose members are most likely very poor, with various anti-social behaviors. One has a slim chance at having a secure upbringing growing up in that kind of environment with reckless, angry and addicted parents. Sounds like Joseph is definitely guilty, but I will be praying for Joseph. There still may be hope for the boy. 🙏💕

    Thank you Dr. Grande. I always enjoy your work very much. Both the clarity of your analysis; the art of summarizing even difficult histories perfectly in a few minutes and the blissfully dry humor.
    In my country (The Netherlands) Joseph would not be punished, but helped.
    Dutch Law: Minimum age
    Article 486 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (Sv) stipulates that 'no one can be prosecuted for an offense committed before he has reached the age of twelve.' This concerns a 'legally non-rebuttable presumption of non-responsibility on the grounds of youth'. It concerns a general ground for exclusion from punishment on which the youth under the age of twelve can invoke if he is being prosecuted for a criminal offence. The Public Prosecution Service is then inadmissible in its prosecution. However, the committed offense remains punishable. Only the prosecution of a minor is excluded, not the detection of the criminal offense.
    Investigative powers and coercive measures can therefore be applied by the police and the judiciary against the suspect under the age of twelve. For example, they can arrest, search and interrogate the juvenile, and objects can be seized from him. The committed offense is also a signal that something is going wrong in the upbringing of the juvenile. That is why the police will always make a concern report to the advice and reporting center for domestic violence and child abuse of Safe Home. In addition, the police also register all crimes committed by under-12s in its Client Tracking System.
    The way 'justice' works for non adults in the USA always baffles me.

  • @kennethkunz2449
    @kennethkunz2449 Год назад +20

    Is it actually ethical to punish Joseph? Hasn't he been punished enough - by being repeatedly subjected to several severe forms of lifelong, humiliating childhood trauma? Personally, I am in a quandary as to how this child can now be helped. Can he ever live a normal life of self-fulfilment and self-actualization? Can he ever be productively integrated into society? Probably not. But 10 years of jail will not help that. There must be another way...but as for his crime: when he blew his dad's brains out, Joseph was only protecting himself. After all, the dad said he would deactivate the smoke alarms and burn the house down. If I was an impressionable, traumatized 10-year-old boy, in order to save myself and the family, I might not see another way than to avail myself of the dad's conveniently loaded gun, and likewise neutralize him by splattering his brains all over the couch. The kid solved the problem, but created a new set of problems.

That statement alone makes me wonder if he really understood the full reality of what he was doing.

    But Hitler did not meet basic definitions of Socialist (democracy & equality in economic power) , so "National Socialist" is a false use of the term, same as the fact North Korea calls itself a democracy.
    Most people are actually both moderately Nationalist & Socialist if you actually ask them about what they value & policies.

    I remember a week or two before the murder, Hall Sr's Neo-Nazi group was having a demonstration or rally at the Home Depot on Madison and Indiana Sts in Riverside. Immigrants and other unemployed persons often solicited work from the surrounding sidewalks and parking lots, and I imagine that is why the neo-nazis chose that location. A little earlier on my way to get groceries, Mr. Hall was making some kind of speech. On my way driving home, the neo-nazis lined up along the sidewalk on Indiana shouting and holding banners. As I drove down the street, several of them surged into the street towards the cars, shaking their fists threateningly and yelling, scaring me to death. Since this rally was planned, I think Riverside Police were stationed down the street keeping a watchful eye. I knew everybody was armed to the teeth. Hall Sr was known to beat his women violently and sadistically, whether under the influence or not. He did this in full sight of his kids. Joseph was also badly beaten by his dad regularly, and his younger sisters were reportedly abused. When Hall Sr was not at rallies or parties, parents were living the drug life at the house. If I remember correctly, they were about to be kicked out of their house for not making payments, and it was a decent two-story house in a relatively nice area by the University of California. And of course, Hall Sr and his wife were about to split up. Besides the epigenetic and possibly genetic problems Joseph had that would prevent him from learning the way most kids learn, he was subjected to constant violence, both as a victim and as an observer. I absolutely believe him when he says his father threatened to burn down the house after disabling the fire alarms. Probably the dad didn't have that intent, but was using it as coercive discipline, since he was riding on a high from his prominence among the neo-nazis. There is no way the kid was taught any reasonable form of morals, including knowing the difference between right and wrong. This would be reinforced by the dad's self justifications for all his own violent actions. Without an ability for self-control or recognizing personal boundaries, with any control only arising from coercion, Joseph would have a hard time not acting strictly on passions. It would make perfect sense for him to think that something could be undone. I believe he enjoyed the notoriety of his dad, but wanted the abuse to end. So I believe that he was straightforward in talking to law enforcement about his motives and his expectations. I can't imagine what his life will be like as he gets out this year.

      People do change. It's harder the older you are. This kid didn't have a safe home environment and his parents literally taught him the behaviours he displayed. He's experienced a lot of neglect and trauma which actually changes your brain, it can be seen on MRI scans. However through the process of neuroplasticity, with the right support, this can be remedied. His brain is still developing and won't stop growing until he is approximately 25 so there is a good chance he can learn new ways of reacting to frustrations. I can't believe how many people are writing off this little boy based on their own ignorant feelings rather than facts.
