I gotta say, my mom and step-dad have been together for 36 years, since I was 10. If I found naked pictures of myself on his computer, or in his possession, I don't know what I would do. BUT if I found naked pictures of my daughter in his possession, I know EXACTLY WHAT I WOULD DO.
I caught my Moms ex husband videotaping me changing through my window when I was 12. I looked up from my mirror it was directly next to my window and I seen our family video camera in the window. I could see a small red light and “Sony” and immediately recognized what it was. I ran downstairs to where the camera was usually plugged in and it was gone. I ran outside and found a ladder under my window. I then ran in my driveway and found my Moms Ex in his car I screamed “what the F are you doing” and he said “I’m checking the lights in my car” while he looked shakey and wide eyed. I knew exactly what had happened but my Mom just wouldn’t believe it. I don’t know maybe she just couldn’t. She kicked me out and accused me of trying to ruin her life. He never had enough guts to touch me, I was a strong willed big mouthed kid. I would have told everyone and I did tell everyone exactly what happened. Anyone who would listen until my Mother finally took my side years later. She lies to people now and tells them she left him right away but that’s an outright lie. She kicked me out and stayed with him for two years while I lived with my Nana and didn’t leave until my Grandfather told her she could move in our family vacation cottage until she got back on her feet and by then her ex was sleeping with some guy named Jeff and my Mom caught him crossdressing in her clothing with Jeff.
There's a psychological term for this phenomenon. They're called "flying monkeys". Which is what the brother is.They're the people that malignant narcissistic psychopaths stir up against their targeted "scapegoat". The "flying monkeys" obey their psychopathic masters to the point of lying, manipulating and covering for them either through deception and mis-characterization or through blind obedience. I sadly speak from experience on this. Although unlike here, I never have, and never will, become the monster that they want to turn you in to like may be the case here. The best way to think of the narcissistic psychopath is as literal vampires. They either want to feed off their scapegoats suffering like a vampire does blood or they want to turn their scapegoat into the monsters that they are. And one of the ways they do this by stirring up people against their target. It's a truly sad and sick dynamic that these psychopaths are natural at.
@@darnelljackson2160 Idk, how would you react if someone had nude photos of you on their computer that you didn't give them nor wanted them to have? Especially underage 🥴
I'm most disgusted by the way the victim's family just brushes the pics of his nude stepdaughter off as if he had told an inappropriate joke while simultaneously making his application for sainthood.
Who was murdered by his stepdaughter. She was old enough to know not to act impulsively. I thought she was a teen or in her 20s but she's 39! She lived enough to think and know murder is not the way to go with her creepy step-dad😬
@@grassfeddie021clearly she doesn’t matter. Not saying he deserved to die, but maybe don’t be creeping on your step daughter…. She might just find out and kill you…. 🤷🏼♀️
It's insane to me how supportive families are of their sick twisted family members. My family have disowned me after I told my family I was physically dependent on opiates.
It's really not our fault if Dr prescribes them. And all the power to you for reaching out for help to get off them. It's alot harder to do when family members are on board and not turning against you for just a bigger pie.
My ex was arrested of DV a few days ago. He strangled me and gave me bruises and kicked my door in, and a lot of other crap. His mom didn’t even want me to call the police. She wants me to drop charges. I’m looking for a lawyer. My state also gets to choose, not me, if a charge is dropped or not. Protects me from liability
Glad you felt strong enough to share and are still sharing! You are so worthy of support and you deserve to enjoy your life and have a good quality of life !!
Actually there was no evidence in support of Jade’s claims but extensive and explicit evidence of her guilt, with witnesses, so we just have to call it a murderer attempting to blame her victim.
@bordstif84 I have chronic pancreatitis and was on pain management for 3 years, then the opioid crisis happened. I told my family I can't go more than 3 hours without an opiate. In a week my truck was sold out from under me, I was kicked out and just went the homeless route cause I was too embarrassed to ask my friends for help. Did that for 9 months finally got into a rehab. Been 3 years, and unfortunately my sister passed away last year right at Easter :(
I CANNOT BELIEVE the AUDACITY of the man's brother pointing fingers at her and calling her immoral for having pictures of herself and her body just proves the type of family the stepfather had come from
But you cannot put a death sentence on everything.... what if you looked wrong at a woman and she thinks 'I have to kill her', you know how some wonen are, would also not be right.
CANNOT BELIEVE the AUDACITY of YOU... there were no pics, you really believe she was cleaning his house and bumped the mouse, then nude pics of her popped up on the screen, then you believe that when she found them she opened up the computer, takes the hard drive out and destroys it beyond repair? She couldn't even open the computer up, much less find the hard drive and take it out, too, then destroy the hard drive so that even pros could not find anything on it. NO PICS were ever found, that is all her made up story after the murder. Here's some verified texts of hers that she sent to the guy that went to the cops when she called him for help with the murder ...prosecutors said, prompting Janks to send a series of texts, including: “He’s waking up. I really don’t want to be the one to do this.” “He is waking up and I really need help.” “I am about to club him on the head as he is waking up.” “It’s going to be Weekend at Bernie’s.” ---- You women are easily controlled by the media, a very dangerous crowd.
@@alexthedeal1827 right, that's why we have a legal system and don't get to dole out our individual punishments....What's worth death to one isn't for others
She should have called the. State Troopers. They would have licked him up for a very long time. I think she just lost it. Should have gotten 15 years and ten on probation
It's really sad that you somehow have twisted your mentality in such a way that murder is ok... Take note that I didn't say self defense, or taking a life. I specifically said murder, because that's what it was.
I’m disgusted by the family, apparently he had elementary age kids photos too but he was a decent guy? Who are these people. I’m wondering if there is way more to this, what exactly pushed her to do this besides the obvious photos .
As soon as I heard the first man with his tears I rolled my eyes. How many people have we heard that are "loved in their community" that turn out to be disgusting!!
Tragically, it's common for the families of sicko ped0phíļes to protect and enable the sickos to continue to prey upon çhíļdŕen. They are equally as guilty as the main perpetrator.
You’re right. In fact most normal ppl are not as likeable because they are not outwardly performing for others. Predators are deathly afraid of exposure and invest excessive effort to stay off everyone’s radar. Particularly child predators. They are often the life of the party, and the most helpful neighbour and funniest grandfather. To the point that a Jekyll and Hyde scenario is unfathomable to all.
As soon as she found those photos I'm sure she did wanna kill him but she should've called the police and turned him in. And for people to act like that sick man was such a great guy is disgustingly disturbing.
For what exactly. That’s evil. That’s sick. That’s going to scar her for life. While he just sits behind bars. Jail isn’t as bad as it used to be or we think :) especially with todays system that likes to cater to criminals.
Tbh it's so disgusting! How would you feel if the person you called dad was perving over your nudes, omg that makes me feel sick!! I bet she felt completely violated
She murdered a man, and then destroyed the hard drive that housed the so called images. All of her actions says that she is a cold blooded killer. An innocent person wouldn't have destroyed the evidence.
This woman did so well throughout her life. I think she had a psych break when she saw those pictures and felt her entire relationship with stepdad had been a lie. Her birth dad really stepped up on her behalf. I definitely don't condone what she did - so many other options - #1 notifying the police, confronting step dad, erasing the pics and stepdad from her life, etc...
What pictures? No proof they ever existed. Too many commenters on here are sympathetic to the female murderer. Why? No naked pics were ever entered into evidence so no motive is known. Only proof/evidence we have is that the female defendant killed her stepfather. Maybe the motive will come out someday.
Sorry for the stepdad but he secretly taking photos of her naked body and who knows what else happened and if he took it while she’s asleep or drunk and for how long to keep a 100 photos! Don’t know what’s playing on her mind cause she could call the police or seek more Justice that her stepdad should be in the prison instead and not her! He betrayed her and she gets upset and super angry for her to do it! Maybe life imprisonment is not justified as she’s been good to him until she was provoked by his actions!
My mum had an affair and when we moved away from the marital home I felt like a weight had been taken off my shoulders. Little did I know within two weeks of moving ‘he’ came to live with us. From then on my close bond with my mother came undone and all she cared about was ‘him’ I hated be alone with ‘him’ as ‘he’ made me feel so uncomfortable and when I became 16 years old ‘he’ staring to act really pervy round me. Apparently ‘he’ liked to come in my room when I was asleep to check if I was alright. I didn’t know anything about this until I moved out and told me ‘he’d’ seen my lower half. If I hadn’t have moved out I’m scared to what could have happened. ‘He’ was a perv, and when I think about ‘him’ my skin crawls. My mother is still with him and now I have nothing to do with her or ‘him’.
I’m not a father or even a stepfather but I imagine it’s of great honor for a stepchild to value you and love you as a father while still having her father alive.. that shows a lot of respect.. so for him to do this to her must’ve tore the soul out of her in ways unimaginable 😢 I feel sorry for her.. and I understand completely.. there wasn’t really any going back after what she saw
Just remove him from her life. She would’ve killed someone else down the line if she hadn’t found those pictures. She’s got crazy eyes. Prison is the only place she belongs
@@mclovinlife4018 Except she never did kill anyone else. Nor was she ever in any trouble. So...other than her "crazy eyes" there's no evidence to lead anyone to believe she would have had anything but a normal life if not for this vermin pretending he cared about her as a daughter.
I had to rewind the video and put captions on to confirm what I thought I heard him say. Insane how he keeps track of his sleep schedule. He's a weirdo.
No. Not at all. Don't send out nudes if you don't want your step dad or family to see them. Not even proven he had any pictures. Crazy you believe anything. If he really had such materials, she would have shown it to police or at least left it there for them
To be "emotional" hurt....Come on! Get over it! Society is getting too soft and everyone so "personal hurt feelings". Premeditated and calculated murder is not justified
I feel like the defense screwed this one up. It's just too hard to believe he happened to die on his own and she simply panicked afterward. She would have been better off admitting she did it and hope for a sympathetic jury.
The text messages were damming- I think she snapped after finding the pictures but she should have destroyed him another way by telling everyone what he did 😒
4:53 “My brother may have possessed inappropriate photos, which is wrong” Then proceeds to blame the victim. 5:12 “Tom never acted inappropriately.” …….. WTF?! 😐 What she did was wrong, but it feels manipulative to call her “the killer.”
Having nude photos is disgusting in this case, but it’s also disgusting to think murder is the answer here. Blame on both sides. You call her the victim, but do you agree the murdered man is a victim?
Lmao there really is no accountability is there? She IS a killer and the real victim is the person who was killed, who can’t defend himself from the allegations of that monster.
Having naked pictures of her doesn't allow her to kill him. It's that simple. He had a right to live and not be murdered. It's gross what he did but this is wonton murder.
How disgusting for a father to be obsessed with his daughter to have nudes of her. She snapped & most likely had flashbacks & questioned every time they were close or he touched her or complimented her. Defense went the wrong route.
At least she has the pleasure of flashbacks. There was no evidence of any nude photos. Look at the txt messages she was sending out. Shes clearly delusional and psychotic. COME ONNNNNNNN Jesus
She didn't snap. She planned and premeditated on killing her step dad. Very different than getting caught up in the moment and doing something in the heat of the moment. The pervert should have been prosecuted and sent to jail. Instead, she killed him and now she's rotting in prison.
My ex-husband was well respected, at work, in the community, the high school where he volunteered, with his parents and siblings. The truth was he was molesting my daughter, his stepdaughter. The house of cards he carefully constructed, that kept his lies and perversion hidden, came crumbling down. The mighty fall every day. This woman did society a favor. It's just sad she didn't try to take him down legally. I'm sure she knows she would never win, look at how his family act like he was the one victimized. She knew no justice would ever come. So she took it for herself. Good riddance. I hope she is able to get a reduced sentence on appeal.
What happened to your daughter was awful, but this isn’t that, not even close. This is a woman, not a child. He never touched her. And while it’s incredibly gross that he had these photos in his possession, they were photos of an adult. And though Janks didn’t consent to her stepfather having these photos, they were taken with her consent by her boyfriend. There was zero evidence ever discovered or recovered that suggested he had any images of children. What he did was reprehensible, & disgusting, and kicking him in the ballsack would be really satisfying. but possessing photos of naked adults isn’t a crime punishable by death.
5-15 years is a far more appropriate sentence. Imagine the betrayal of finding out someone you've thought of as your father was secretly sexually attracted to you. Imagine the images she conjured up of what he did with those photos. Imagine how many experiences/moments she replayed in a different context. She murdered him. Pretty cold bloodedly. So yeah, there needs to be a prison sentence. But 25 - life is ridiculous.
If he had pictures of his own daughter imagine what he would do to someone else's child. She will take this with her the rest of her life, he will never be able to hurt anyone ever again. JUSTICE was served!
@christiancastro5746 physical and mental hurt are two completely different things. Dude was deranged so are the family members for taking up for a low life excuse of a dad
@@douglaslove21 there's no way to spin this. It matters zero how "close" a stepfather and stepdaughter are. When the only actual crime is data theft, a death sentence is not answer. Great job sticking up for a murderer because I guess you think the mere sight of your body is sacred. Newsflash: it's not.
@@guesswhat-chickenbutt Dr. Fauci spent 50 years becoming the world's most preeminent authority on infectious diseases... just to trick a bunch of poorly educated hicks into wearing cloth on their faces. Wait, dont laugh, this makes perfect sense to the poorly educated.
I can't believe even his family would have the nerve to try and blame her for their brother having nude photos of her, his stepdaughter, on his computer. I get that they're going to try and minimize his sickness, but that was pretty low.
How do you think the man got so f'ed up in the first place. Those people raised him, lived with him, so it's no surprise they're as morally bankrupt and entitled as he was.
Bold and sick enough to have it as his wallpaper on the dang computer!!! He was obsessed where are the parts of the trial that’s discussing what he did. ?????
Did the brother just say he lost 90 minutes of sleep in the last 2 years??? Wow....90 whole minutes! ps...to just dismiss the photos of her by the brother tells me he is probably has a few of them too.. disgusting
The family describing him as a saint is disgusting. She took one for the team taking that disgusting pervert out. Hopefully she paroles in a few years. He’s gone forever which is for the best. Thanks Jade! I’d hire you immediately after your release as I know you are a person of strong moral character. I also know you are a person of action and we need more of that.
She led him with the same false security that he did with her. He pretended to be a father figure, someone she could trust. I understand why she snapped.
I love the way Law and Crime is put together, not just the trial and verdict but the whole case. Praying for all families of victims of any crime. Thanks for sharing!
I don't think I've ever seen the person accused, intently looking at, listening to and reacting to the person speaking to the court the way Jade did. She seemed very involved, not detached or cocky which is what most people on trial do. She could have exposed him for what he really was, instead of destroying her life as well.☹
I agree that I have never seen someone on trial listen and react so intently, and emotionally. This is the first video I have watched on this case so I am not really sure what I believe. Much of her story doesn't make sense after hearing her texts. Guessing there must have been more that the jury heard that the public just doesn't know. I could totally understand how she could have snapped after finding out her stepdad was a perv but that does not make it okay if she did kill him.
If those photos were taken privately by her ex boyfriend, how did her stepfather get them? Unless they were shared publicly online, someone had to have given them to him. I think there’s more to the story than we’re being told. She claims that she never killed him but her text messages say otherwise. They are too damning to ignore. A crime of passion in my opinion is ruled out when she takes a week to plan his murder, reaching out to a “fixer” for advice? That’s a bit nuts.
He could have had her passwords to her cloud or she could have accidentally left her account logged in on his device. Her ex could have given them to him. He could even just be a weirdo who found them online and downloaded them. Your rigid definition of a crime of passion is technically correct but in real life rage and humiliation builds . A crime can be both thought out and a crime of passion
@Jake Stroll absolutely so wrong. Go look up the definition of "crime of passion"... "sudden strong impulse." You typed all that to be dead wrong, go read a book before trying to falsely correct somebody.
The pervert stepdad ... I honestly don't know what I would have done, but I do know that the justice system in this country STINKS, and I know without a shadow of a doubt that they would not have done anything to that pervert. Not even a slap on the wrist. Absolutely disgusting, the way victims are continually victimized and perpetrators are held in high esteem. Disgusting.
She's might be a victim but she's definitely a murderer. No matter her reasoning or justification. She planned to murder him plain and simple. He might be a disgusting human being but nothing absolves her from murder. This is the very definition of justice. Cold and impartial.
You don’t get to commit premeditated murder because your feelings are hurt. It was a gross betrayal but it wasn’t violent and it wasn’t physical. There were so many options.
I'm still traumatized being 38 turning 39 next month from my father SAing me when i was little. If i live with someone i haveto have a lock on my bedroom door and can't sleep in public like a hospital without being heavily sedated. Many more things but that feeling never goes away. I didn't however kill him, he did that himself with alcohol. But that trauma is there with me for my life. I feel for her if she truly is the victim she says she is.
Thank you. ❤️ I've tried hard to live my life normally knowing it's in the past. Therapy, medication for depression and anxiety, it gets too much sometimes. Especially getting harassed at work or in public brings some feelings back tho.
Well they need to go into all the data and pull them up, show them to the jury and hopefully they give her a lighter sentence. It’s obviously the photos were there she texted about why she was doing this with many people, so hence this was the motive.
@ambermartinez6587 That's not how that works. If they were never uploaded into a larger database then they're just gone. And someone explaining to multiple people their motive for murdering doesn't confirm that the motive was true, just the murder.
Let's just forget that this guy manipulated her and had nudes of her when she trusted him and thought of him as a father figure. This is a gross injustice.
@@grantkeller4634 i never said it was okay for her to kill him, but to paint the guy as a Saint just because he is dead and not at least admit he was a pervert, is a problem. They paint him as an innocent man to.linimize her motive. No, she should not have killed him, but of course they don't want to admit his fault while highlighting that it's the laws job to decide punishment. That's called a teaching moment. But this constant protecting of perverts instead of calling it out is a trend.
@@ldinuzzo9075 How is it a "gross injustice" if you agree that "it was [not] okay for her to kill him"? What fault would they be searching for in a dead man? He's dead, they can't punish him for whatever behaviors he may have been involved in. Her actions were not self-defense, they were revenge for a non-violent offense. If a man discovered that his stepmother had 100s of his nude photos would he be justified in killing her? Would it be appropriate to use her actions as a defense of her murder? I don't believe for a second that these comments would be nearly as vitriolic if the genders were reversed.
@@scarletsletter4466 No the attacker went back to the US and we're waiting for the Americans to arrest and extradite her back to Mexico. Until that happens there isn't much to report.

the amount of people defending murder in this case is disturbing to say the least. If the allegations are true then lock the man up. Murdering someone because of how you feel about an illegal action is itself, illegal.
Terrible defense! She should’ve taken accountability for the murder and showed remorse I think she would’ve gotten a much more lenient sentence and empathy from the jury. Possibly manslaughter, but out right denying it with Tons of evidence just wasn’t smart. God bless her Rip to Tom just a sad situation all the way around.
@@ElementsMMA she let her emotions get the best of her. Horrible thing to murder someone and yes she could’ve contacted the police. She felt betrayal and violated by her step father. This is all too sad. Nothing can be done about it now

@@EZ_Case that's entirely true and the issue is that people are too reactive they don't stop, evaluate, calm themselves,and act. Rather, they just go all-out and react in a way that is just not well thought-out.
I think she made the right choice. People need to stop protecting predators. If he was okay doing that to his stepdaughter, who knows who else was a victim.
You should have just turned him in and stopped seeing him. Especially at they age of 39. Come on 39 ??? She’s a killer and should be punished. It’s not like she’s 16 and did it. She’s 39.
@@Allieari A woman’s testosterone will be higher at 16. So I’d think it matters at least slightly. Overall, not much however. Her brain won’t be fully developed either.
I agree..I found out things about my real father that were NOT good regarding me when I was just 18. So, at 39 she could have found another way to resolve this. I would NEVER think of taking another's life..even at the young age of 18. She messed up!
How did he get the photos? Did the investigators actually find the photos on his computer? I have read a few articles on this and it says "jade claimed she found photos" but none of them say "investigators found photos" or describe how he came to aquire them- wouldn't that be important information? That's also not addressed in this video?

@@Knards Trials deal with proof. NO PROOF those photos ever existed. But plenty of proof she thought about killing him extensively. I'm on no ones side in this case. I'm just going on the facts of the trial.
@@Knards nope, a young woman would first keep a record of some sort whether it’s by censoring them or having one of her female friends verify they exist, the reason she didn’t do this is because if it were true or she faked it by taking nudes after the fact and simply editing them, from the amber heard trial we have learned about exif data which would disprove her if she tried to fake it, so simply say they exist and hope some idiots believe her, which apparently has worked according to the comments.

@@kyojaysin1470 Nothing is clear. And any woman would have destroyed the pictures so no one else could see them. Your attempt at bashing her fails. She had no other reason to kill him. Work on that logic and learn about women

If they have a disagreement or issue with another person then the only option they have is to talk it out like a normal person or contact the relevant authorities. Murder should never be condoned. It’s disgusting to see how many adults have homicidal ideations.
correct. If we condone this, we condone setting people up to be murdered by sending them child pr0n and then going out to kill them "so they get what they deserve".
Of course, she didn't turn to her family. They flat out defended him in court, and she probably knew they would try to sweep it under the rug. That poor girl. Prayers for her.

They had to have proof. You can still get the pictures even if u remove them. Usually has a cloud that's attached to the computer unless it's old computer. It's not worth life in prison. Think about your actions. Sleep on it. Think bout it.
Unless you scrubbed the computer completely and professionally, deleted items can be retrieved using data recovery software. I've used them in the past. If you think simply deleting and emptying your recycle bin is enough, you are wrong wrong wrong.
Forget about cloud storage. This was a computer, so it was most likely a HDD, therefore she would've had to rewrite over the whole thing several times in order to permanently remove the pictures files. Very unlikely she knows any of this procedure. She made up the whole story.
This is absolutely disgusting from the step father. But she should not have take justice on her own. She had no right to do so unless for self defense.
This family is so sick. Speaking of their perverted brother as if he was a saint. They are all absolutely repulsive. I wish she hadn't killed him but I also cannot imagine what she has been through. I'm not justifying her actions, but I'm so disgusted with the way her step-father is being defended.
I gotta say, my mom and step-dad have been together for 36 years, since I was 10. If I found naked pictures of myself on his computer, or in his possession, I don't know what I would do. BUT if I found naked pictures of my daughter in his possession, I know EXACTLY WHAT I WOULD DO.

@laura Only puritan scumbags care more about nude photos than torturing and killing a possible 'creep'. Get help.
It is misogyny - plain and simple.

🤣
Word.
😆👍
There were no pictures, did you even follow the case?
For the last time, THERE WERE NO PICTURES EVER FOUND. It was something she concocted to cover for the murder.
Imagine your brother collecting naked photos of his daughter, and then you stand in a court of law and blame her for taking them.
and Imagine your brother then murdered by said daughter.......LOL. Clown.
Right!! Grieve for what he thought he was, but don't paint him out to be a saint when his family should actually be repulsed omg.
He skipped over that rather quickly at sentencing, didn't he
Imagine being murdered in cold blood !
that does not justify murder. you cannot simply kill someone just because you dont like what they did or who they are. Nudes dont entitle Death.
"Tom was a son, a father, a brother, a best man, a blah blah blah... a pervert, a weirdo, a psycho. a betrayer.
😂
Pervert or not, someone having naked pictures of you does not mean you get to murder them.
Who was murdered by his stepdaughter. She was old enough to know not to act impulsively. I thought she was a teen or in her 20s but she's 39! She lived enough to think and know murder is not the way to go with her creepy step-dad😬
Exactlyyyyyyy tfff
@@grassfeddie021clearly she doesn’t matter. Not saying he deserved to die, but maybe don’t be creeping on your step daughter…. She might just find out and kill you…. 🤷🏼♀️
It's insane to me how supportive families are of their sick twisted family members. My family have disowned me after I told my family I was physically dependent on opiates.
It's really not our fault if Dr prescribes them. And all the power to you for reaching out for help to get off them. It's alot harder to do when family members are on board and not turning against you for just a bigger pie.
My ex was arrested of DV a few days ago. He strangled me and gave me bruises and kicked my door in, and a lot of other crap. His mom didn’t even want me to call the police. She wants me to drop charges. I’m looking for a lawyer. My state also gets to choose, not me, if a charge is dropped or not. Protects me from liability
Glad you felt strong enough to share and are still sharing! You are so worthy of support and you deserve to enjoy your life and have a good quality of life !!
Actually there was no evidence in support of Jade’s claims but extensive and explicit evidence of her guilt, with witnesses, so we just have to call it a murderer attempting to blame her victim.
@bordstif84 I have chronic pancreatitis and was on pain management for 3 years, then the opioid crisis happened. I told my family I can't go more than 3 hours without an opiate. In a week my truck was sold out from under me, I was kicked out and just went the homeless route cause I was too embarrassed to ask my friends for help. Did that for 9 months finally got into a rehab. Been 3 years, and unfortunately my sister passed away last year right at Easter :(
so cringe how they say "she chose to send those images out" yeah to her boyfriend not her stepdad like wtff
Not even 6 minutes in and I’m highly concerned how family and friends defend this man. None of them are trusting either.
I would be willing to bet that the step-uncle is an even bigger pervert than his dead brother was.

I can’t imagine the trauma of finding out your own stepfather has been collecting naked pictures of you secretly for years.
No pics were found on his computer.
trust no male. duh
Well, Jade imagined it....
If Jade was such a good woman, why did she stab him - instead of reporting him to the police 🚨👮🏼 ? Because she ain't a great person but a liar.
She cries at the press of a button 🖲️
I CANNOT BELIEVE the AUDACITY of the man's brother pointing fingers at her and calling her immoral for having pictures of herself and her body just proves the type of family the stepfather had come from
But you cannot put a death sentence on everything.... what if you looked wrong at a woman and she thinks 'I have to kill her', you know how some wonen are, would also not be right.
CANNOT BELIEVE the AUDACITY of YOU... there were no pics, you really believe she was cleaning his house and bumped the mouse, then nude pics of her popped up on the screen, then you believe that when she found them she opened up the computer, takes the hard drive out and destroys it beyond repair?
She couldn't even open the computer up, much less find the hard drive and take it out, too, then destroy the hard drive so that even pros could not find anything on it.
NO PICS were ever found, that is all her made up story after the murder.
Here's some verified texts of hers that she sent to the guy that went to the cops when she called him for help with the murder
...prosecutors said, prompting Janks to send a series of texts, including:
“He’s waking up. I really don’t want to be the one to do this.”
“He is waking up and I really need help.”
“I am about to club him on the head as he is waking up.”
“It’s going to be Weekend at Bernie’s.”

It's really sad that you somehow have twisted your mentality in such a way that murder is ok... Take note that I didn't say self defense, or taking a life. I specifically said murder, because that's what it was.
I’m disgusted by the family, apparently he had elementary age kids photos too but he was a decent guy? Who are these people. I’m wondering if there is way more to this, what exactly pushed her to do this besides the obvious photos .
As soon as I heard the first man with his tears I rolled my eyes. How many people have we heard that are "loved in their community" that turn out to be disgusting!!
I'm disgusted by how many people believe a murderer's word with zero evidence lol
It would be interesting to see who was in his will.
Tragically, it's common for the families of sicko ped0phíļes to protect and enable the sickos to continue to prey upon çhíļdŕen. They are equally as guilty as the main perpetrator.

And many people forget that murderers are GREAT at lying about their actions and trying to blame their victims...
@@gauisblach7757 her behaviour is nothing like those who have been tried before
You’re right. In fact most normal ppl are not as likeable because they are not outwardly performing for others. Predators are deathly afraid of exposure and invest excessive effort to stay off everyone’s radar. Particularly child predators. They are often the life of the party, and the most helpful neighbour and funniest grandfather. To the point that a Jekyll and Hyde scenario is unfathomable to all.
@@CikisHelyzet spot on!!!
This is exactly what i was thinking
As soon as she found those photos I'm sure she did wanna kill him but she should've called the police and turned him in. And for people to act like that sick man was such a great guy is disgustingly disturbing.
Lol turned him in for what?
How do we know what she's saying is true though? Nobody has even seen the laptop
For what exactly. That’s evil. That’s sick. That’s going to scar her for life. While he just sits behind bars. Jail isn’t as bad as it used to be or we think :) especially with todays system that likes to cater to criminals.

She murdered a man, and then destroyed the hard drive that housed the so called images. All of her actions says that she is a cold blooded killer. An innocent person wouldn't have destroyed the evidence.
she put a monster down@@YousirArdume
This woman did so well throughout her life. I think she had a psych break when she saw those pictures and felt her entire relationship with stepdad had been a lie. Her birth dad really stepped up on her behalf. I definitely don't condone what she did - so many other options - #1 notifying the police, confronting step dad, erasing the pics and stepdad from her life, etc...
What pictures? No proof they ever existed. Too many commenters on here are sympathetic to the female murderer. Why? No naked pics were ever entered into evidence so no motive is known. Only proof/evidence we have is that the female defendant killed her stepfather. Maybe the motive will come out someday.
If I found naked pictures of me on my stepdad‘s laptop I would add them to my spank bank.
Well she erased him from her life
Honestly
Good for her
Sorry for the stepdad but he secretly taking photos of her naked body and who knows what else happened and if he took it while she’s asleep or drunk and for how long to keep a 100 photos! Don’t know what’s playing on her mind cause she could call the police or seek more Justice that her stepdad should be in the prison instead and not her! He betrayed her and she gets upset and super angry for her to do it! Maybe life imprisonment is not justified as she’s been good to him until she was provoked by his actions!
Lol the investigators never found any pictures she said she erased them. She most likely lied shes unhinged watched the sentencing hearing
My mum had an affair and when we moved away from the marital home I felt like a weight had been taken off my shoulders.
Little did I know within two weeks of moving ‘he’ came to live with us. From then on my close bond with my mother came undone and all she cared about was ‘him’
I hated be alone with ‘him’ as ‘he’ made me feel so uncomfortable and when I became 16 years old ‘he’ staring to act really pervy round me.
Apparently ‘he’ liked to come in my room when I was asleep to check if I was alright. I didn’t know anything about this until I moved out and told me ‘he’d’ seen my lower half.
If I hadn’t have moved out I’m scared to what could have happened. ‘He’ was a perv, and when I think about ‘him’ my skin crawls.
My mother is still with him and now I have nothing to do with her or ‘him’.
I agree with you 💯 you have done the right thing by going no contact I know it's difficult but now you have peace of mind 💕🌺💕
I hear you but can you explain to me why you are quoting him and he?
You must have done something to provoke his interest. Girls often do this. You obviously had a subconscious desire to sleep with him.
It's very tragic when a parent (usually the mother) chooses the boyfriend before the safety of their child. So sorry for your experience.
Good for you! Your Mother is a garbage Mom, she just cares about "her fun"! Don't let her in when she gets older and come knock at your door!
I’m not a father or even a stepfather but I imagine it’s of great honor for a stepchild to value you and love you as a father while still having her father alive.. that shows a lot of respect.. so for him to do this to her must’ve tore the soul out of her in ways unimaginable 😢 I feel sorry for her.. and I understand completely.. there wasn’t really any going back after what she saw
Exactly what I was thinking
Just remove him from her life. She would’ve killed someone else down the line if she hadn’t found those pictures. She’s got crazy eyes. Prison is the only place she belongs
@@mclovinlife4018 Except she never did kill anyone else. Nor was she ever in any trouble. So...other than her "crazy eyes" there's no evidence to lead anyone to believe she would have had anything but a normal life if not for this vermin pretending he cared about her as a daughter.

His brother blaming her for taking the photos with her boyfriend shows what trash he came from.
No. Not at all. Don't send out nudes if you don't want your step dad or family to see them. Not even proven he had any pictures. Crazy you believe anything. If he really had such materials, she would have shown it to police or at least left it there for them
To be "emotional" hurt....Come on! Get over it! Society is getting too soft and everyone so "personal hurt feelings". Premeditated and calculated murder is not justified
It shows you what kind of family they are when they aren't even honest with their own mother
The sad thing is that some child abusers get out on probation with little or no jail time.

There was no evidence of the pictures existing. She made it up. Stop being gullible.
Probably because there is no evidence that he did anything wrong and your are basing your conclusion on the word of a murderer.
Having naked pictures of her doesn't allow her to kill him. It's that simple. He had a right to live and not be murdered. It's gross what he did but this is wonton murder.
Demons love demons .
All the real father needed to say was " I am her father and I HAVE ZERO NAKED PHOTOGRAPHS OF HER" .
There was no evidence that Tom had any of the alleged photos on his computer.

Imagine being killed by your stepchild, then she makes up a story after your death about you having nude pictures of her. The ultimate betrayal.

I’m sure it took her soul. To be violated in that way is horrendous.
The way she's looking at him.. she's in so much pain. She just wanted it to stop
That looks like her first exposure to accountability...
How disgusting for a father to be obsessed with his daughter to have nudes of her. She snapped & most likely had flashbacks & questioned every time they were close or he touched her or complimented her. Defense went the wrong route.
At least she has the pleasure of flashbacks. There was no evidence of any nude photos. Look at the txt messages she was sending out. Shes clearly delusional and psychotic. COME ONNNNNNNN Jesus
My brother was obsessed with his sister we didn't kill him.. he killed himself overdose but still men are weak and it was kind of a compliment
First I heard of this case, how did the step dad get the pictures of his step daughter?
And how did she kill him?
ever been to a pornsite? all you see on there is step daughter father fantasy. but i guess that's reason to murder someone
She didn't snap. She planned and premeditated on killing her step dad. Very different than getting caught up in the moment and doing something in the heat of the moment. The pervert should have been prosecuted and sent to jail. Instead, she killed him and now she's rotting in prison.
She definitely doesn’t deserve life in prison. What is wrong with that jury?

The house of cards he carefully constructed, that kept his lies and perversion hidden, came crumbling down. The mighty fall every day. This woman did society a favor. It's just sad she didn't try to take him down legally. I'm sure she knows she would never win, look at how his family act like he was the one victimized. She knew no justice would ever come. So she took it for herself. Good riddance. I hope she is able to get a reduced sentence on appeal.

You can’t compare your events with hers !!!! Disgusting
What happened to your daughter was awful, but this isn’t that, not even close. This is a woman, not a child. He never touched her. And while it’s incredibly gross that he had these photos in his possession, they were photos of an adult. And though Janks didn’t consent to her stepfather having these photos, they were taken with her consent by her boyfriend. There was zero evidence ever discovered or recovered that suggested he had any images of children.
What he did was reprehensible, & disgusting, and kicking him in the ballsack would be really satisfying. but possessing photos of naked adults isn’t a crime punishable by death.
@@enigmaticallis3110
5-15 years is a far more appropriate sentence. Imagine the betrayal of finding out someone you've thought of as your father was secretly sexually attracted to you.

@@Eman-vp5wk There could be several reasons. Like having had an affair. Very weird that they lived door to door.
I don't think I've ever seen the person accused, intently looking at, listening to and reacting to the person speaking to the court the way Jade did. She seemed very involved, not detached or cocky which is what most people on trial do. She could have exposed him for what he really was, instead of destroying her life as well.☹
I agree that I have never seen someone on trial listen and react so intently, and emotionally. This is the first video I have watched on this case so I am not really sure what I believe. Much of her story doesn't make sense after hearing her texts. Guessing there must have been more that the jury heard that the public just doesn't know. I could totally understand how she could have snapped after finding out her stepdad was a perv but that does not make it okay if she did kill him.

Not worth wasting your freedom on some old perv. Karma will catch up with them in Afterlife anyway.
What if she put the photos there?
If those photos were taken privately by her ex boyfriend, how did her stepfather get them? Unless they were shared publicly online, someone had to have given them to him. I think there’s more to the story than we’re being told. She claims that she never killed him but her text messages say otherwise. They are too damning to ignore. A crime of passion in my opinion is ruled out when she takes a week to plan his murder, reaching out to a “fixer” for advice? That’s a bit nuts.
She destroyed the "photos", so they don't even no for sure if they existed or not.
He could have had her passwords to her cloud or she could have accidentally left her account logged in on his device. Her ex could have given them to him. He could even just be a weirdo who found them online and downloaded them. Your rigid definition of a crime of passion is technically correct but in real life rage and humiliation builds . A crime can be both thought out and a crime of passion
@Jake Stroll absolutely so wrong. Go look up the definition of "crime of passion"... "sudden strong impulse."
You typed all that to be dead wrong, go read a book before trying to falsely correct somebody.
It’s a lame excuse for murder and we don’t even know if those existed in first place
He found them on an old phone of hers that she no longer used. She left it at his house long ago.
The pervert stepdad ... I honestly don't know what I would have done, but I do know that the justice system in this country STINKS, and I know without a shadow of a doubt that they would not have done anything to that pervert. Not even a slap on the wrist. Absolutely disgusting, the way victims are continually victimized and perpetrators are held in high esteem. Disgusting.
She's might be a victim but she's definitely a murderer. No matter her reasoning or justification. She planned to murder him plain and simple. He might be a disgusting human being but nothing absolves her from murder. This is the very definition of justice. Cold and impartial.
No evidence of the photos she lied
Ya didn't do much research did you? Investigators never found any pics.
Ok Karen.
except no photos were found. Perhaps as evidenced by her txt messages shes delusional, psychotic, bi polar, and a few others
You don’t get to commit premeditated murder because your feelings are hurt. It was a gross betrayal but it wasn’t violent and it wasn’t physical. There were so many options.

Fake expressions. Too exaggerated
I'm still traumatized being 38 turning 39 next month from my father SAing me when i was little.

So sorry that happened to you
I'm so sorry. You are a survivor. I'm thankful you made it through without acting out against evil. He destroyed himself.
Thank you. ❤️ I've tried hard to live my life normally knowing it's in the past. Therapy, medication for depression and anxiety, it gets too much sometimes. Especially getting harassed at work or in public brings some feelings back tho.
So sorry you had to endure that. I did too and you are right, ot never goes away, but we can learn to deal with it.

I still make sure I have an exit or I can break a window to get out.
They need to investigate the rest of his family
Horrible to hear how the perverted stepfather is being sanctified by his immediate family.
There's no evidence of the photos, my guy.
Well they need to go into all the data and pull them up, show them to the jury and hopefully they give her a lighter sentence. It’s obviously the photos were there she texted about why she was doing this with many people, so hence this was the motive.
@ambermartinez6587 That's not how that works. If they were never uploaded into a larger database then they're just gone. And someone explaining to multiple people their motive for murdering doesn't confirm that the motive was true, just the murder.
Let's just forget that this guy manipulated her and had nudes of her when she trusted him and thought of him as a father figure. This is a gross injustice.
Wow American education coming through. Where are the pictures on his computer ?
You can't just kill someone over nudes lmao. Thats not how it works
@@grantkeller4634 i never said it was okay for her to kill him, but to paint the guy as a Saint just because he is dead and not at least admit he was a pervert, is a problem. They paint him as an innocent man to.linimize her motive. No, she should not have killed him, but of course they don't want to admit his fault while highlighting that it's the laws job to decide punishment. That's called a teaching moment. But this constant protecting of perverts instead of calling it out is a trend.
@@ldinuzzo9075 How is it a "gross injustice" if you agree that "it was [not] okay for her to kill him"? What fault would they be searching for in a dead man? He's dead, they can't punish him for whatever behaviors he may have been involved in. Her actions were not self-defense, they were revenge for a non-violent offense.
If a man discovered that his stepmother had 100s of his nude photos would he be justified in killing her? Would it be appropriate to use her actions as a defense of her murder? I don't believe for a second that these comments would be nearly as vitriolic if the genders were reversed.
You're a disgusting person, there's not even solid evidence that the photos existed in his laptop.
“I’ve lost 90 minutes of sleep in the past two years”! What?!!! That seems like an accomplishment rather than something to be upset about.
Yeah, I don't understand that. Maybe he slipped up or it was a typo? It just doesn't make sense 😆
I know right? I lost 2 years of sleep in 90 minutes. I'm like a zombie.
Presumably, he meant that his average sleep time dropped from like 8 hours to 6.5 hours.
Per day
The fella clearly values every moment of his sleep extremely highly.
Poor woman.The shock and disgust took over,and she did what she did.I really can’t blame her.His family are wrong.
Why do people still think they can text and it will never be seen?
No tears. When I cry it falls like a river. Blowing my nose like crazy.
Gross
Law&Crime, we still wanna know about the Shanquella case and why nobody has been arrested yet. JUSTICE FOR SHANQUELLA. 🇧🇷 🙌
THANK YOU because I feel like people are forgetting.
I think we will when the State Dept does something about it. I hope so too. That is total bs.
Didn’t they get taken to Mexico jail? 😮
@@scarletsletter4466 No the attacker went back to the US and we're waiting for the Americans to arrest and extradite her back to Mexico. Until that happens there isn't much to report.
@@filmshooterfinn I don’t think the U.S wants the case because the little evidence that was available has been leaked edited and lied on. At this point if it’s trialed in the US they will be out by technicality.
the amount of people defending murder in this case is disturbing to say the least. If the allegations are true then lock the man up. Murdering someone because of how you feel about an illegal action is itself, illegal.
What could police have actually charged him with? Hmm. Would depend on the images surely. Which we haven't got.
@@brendandarkside1207 well she was adult in the photos were there and she didnt even confront him she plotted to murder him which is literally insane.
Needs to get a new trial. Whoever came up with the defense they used, completely messed up this case.
It looks like the overwhelming evidence of her guilt messed up Jade's defense.
I agree with you her defense team was very laxed and nonchalant but those Text messages were not her friend
How so??
She is a child blooded killer.
Can't defend that.
She made the defense, that's how it goes, I think the jury got more upset that she insulted their intelligence
Tf you mean she killed a person
NEVER, EVER LET ANYONE TAKE NUDE OR INTIMATE PHOTOS OF YOU LADIES. THEIR IS A THIN LINE BETWEEN LOVE AND HATE.
Men also. Crazy women love extortion.
dont cry when you find material from other women on your mans phone. period.
@@osirisofthesouth2853 yes sir
And there it is - that line
There!
This lady seems more guilty than innocent to me
❤️👏😳👏❤️❤️🥇❤️❤️👏❤️❤️🥇very good! true justice is a weight and balance system......not just right and wrong..."more than" is a serious legal description
Terrible defense! She should’ve taken accountability for the murder and showed remorse I think she would’ve gotten a much more lenient sentence and empathy from the jury. Possibly manslaughter, but out right denying it with Tons of evidence just wasn’t smart. God bless her Rip to Tom just a sad situation all the way around.
Agree. No getting out of those text messages, should've gone on her knees to the jury with a mental illness/victim/psychological defence
I wouldnt even extend an RIP to the deceased! She was crushed to the soul when finding out about betrayal!
@@vikaz3408 That is if... bear with me you believe a murderer
They keep calling her the killer but they don't call their dead brother the pervert.. the manipulator.. the creep.. etc.. sick.
I think her attorney wanted to comfort her when she cried. I can see she clearly has a heart and soul that still work.
Drugging and murdering a man who had just come out of hospital is not exactly the act of someone with the biggest heart.
@@ElementsMMA she let her emotions get the best of her. Horrible thing to murder someone and yes she could’ve contacted the police. She felt betrayal and violated by her step father. This is all too sad. Nothing can be done about it now
@@Deenique16 exactly. You worded it better than I did. I could not IMAGINE my father and the only father I’ve ever known doing that to me.
@@ElementsMMA A good-hearted reaction… to being betrayed, used and lied to by someone you trusted as a father!
I think what she did was completely understandable... I don't think I could find your guilty..
It is a terrible thing to discover, but according to the law, one does not have the right to kill another because of something like this
I don’t think for a second she thought it was in her legal right to kill someone. I don’t think most people who commit murder give a flying sh** about their “legal rights”.
@@EZ_Case like someone groping, with no payback!
What’s funny is the consequences never seem to be considered. Act on emotion and anger and you get to spend the rest of your life in a cage. Oh well.
@@EZ_Case that's entirely true and the issue is that people are too reactive they don't stop, evaluate, calm themselves,and act. Rather, they just go all-out and react in a way that is just not well thought-out.
Suree you do, just gotta do time afterwards
I think she made the right choice. People need to stop protecting predators. If he was okay doing that to his stepdaughter, who knows who else was a victim.
She clearly made the wrong choice. She’s the one suffering in jail now, not him.
What he do tho ? Like 9ther details ? Have they emerged ? He had her nude pics ... . How he got that btw i am so confused 😕
THERE WERE NO PHOTOS FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!
People keep saying she found photo's yet none were found by the police
You should have just turned him in and stopped seeing him. Especially at they age of 39. Come on 39 ??? She’s a killer and should be punished. It’s not like she’s 16 and did it. She’s 39.
Age doesn't matter. Trauma is trauma. People break at any age.
@@Allieari A woman’s testosterone will be higher at 16. So I’d think it matters at least slightly. Overall, not much however. Her brain won’t be fully developed either.
He's a sick fucc.
U sound like u relate to the step-dad.
I agree..I found out things about my real father that were NOT good regarding me when I was just 18. So, at 39 she could have found another way to resolve this.
I would NEVER think of taking another's life..even at the young age of 18. She messed up!
Her attorney doesn’t look convinced of his client’s innocence. He’s just going through the motions.
He's a freaking clown 🤣
Agree he isn't convinced and just going through the motions
Nah i think he was just trying to show respect for the family who lost their loved one
not innocent right , it's questionable if it's justified ..
That's because she isn't innocent, he can't fake it thaaaat much.
How did he get the photos? Did the investigators actually find the photos on his computer? I have read a few articles on this and it says "jade claimed she found photos" but none of them say "investigators found photos" or describe how he came to aquire them- wouldn't that be important information? That's also not addressed in this video?
She was sunk by her own words..she was the strongest possible witness against herself..
I think it's because she had incompetent and terrible legal representation/advice...
When a person is very naive about legal matters, it's very easy to screw themselves..
@@karaDee2363 Naivete is reserved for the very young. She's arrogant, and it was her own testimony through her texts, that did in fact rightfully get her life in prison.
She deserves the death penalty, but the lousy state of California will never implement it.
@@karaDee2363 She murdered someone.
@@karaDee2363 no it’s because she is murderer and garbage liar
@@karaDee2363 also her text messages to her friend screwed her
The victims family is all boohooing about the trust it would’ve took for her to commit the murder yet imagine the trust it would’ve took to violate her in so many ways as someone who’s supposed to be a father figure to her!!!
Murder is Murder, grow up.
Correction, SHE WAS THE VICTIM.
Tell me her attorney doesn't look just like Grandpa from The Munsters LMAO
🤣🤣
I was gonna type that 😂 that hair it’s definitely the one to blame
Yeah a thinner version 😂
Hahahahahaha he sho enough does hahahahahaha
The one who ran for mayor of New York for half a century? Of course there’s only one Al Lewis 🦇
speaking from experience, you literally dont even know what to do. you feel disgusted and betrayed. i dont see how any one could blame her.
For killing a human being?
Betrayed by someone you look to as a role model is disgusting and always has long term effects on a young woman.
Happy she’s lost her life for this
She's old enough
Yeah being killed by your step daughter on sketchy at best reasoning is pretty sad too. Has an even longer term effect too
Killing someone can take long-term effects on them. Oh wait it won't because they are already dead.
BALENCIAGA AND HUTNER BIDEN
So this woman sent messages about her plans, and now she wants to play innocent? Okay 😳
if having child pornography in your possession doesn't come with a death charge, why should someone die for having photos of an adult women?
She has anger issues for sure
Facts.
How did he get the photos? That's really creepy
You should clarify your comment about her finding nude photos of herself on his computer. SHE SAYS SHE FOUND NUDE PHOTOS. THEN SHE DESTROYED THEM. Really? Sounds at the least very questionable.
That is exactly what a young woman would do upon finding the pictures.
@@Knards Trials deal with proof. NO PROOF those photos ever existed. But plenty of proof she thought about killing him extensively. I'm on no ones side in this case. I'm just going on the facts of the trial.
@@Knards nope, a young woman would first keep a record of some sort whether it’s by censoring them or having one of her female friends verify they exist, the reason she didn’t do this is because if it were true or she faked it by taking nudes after the fact and simply editing them, from the amber heard trial we have learned about exif data which would disprove her if she tried to fake it, so simply say they exist and hope some idiots believe her, which apparently has worked according to the comments. It’s clear she’s lying and she’s rightfully been found guilty
@@kyojaysin1470 Nothing is clear. And any woman would have destroyed the pictures so no one else could see them. Your attempt at bashing her fails. She had no other reason to kill him. Work on that logic and learn about women
They would still have been able to recover them
How did he get the photos? I don't think he took them. What a strange case. And like most all killers, I don't see no tears from her.
I think they were having an affair that’s what I think

@@stephaniedaigle4794 Why do you think that?

Murder is NEVER the answer. Adults have a responsibility to control their emotions and if they’re struggling with mental health issues then it’s their responsibility to seek treatment. If they have a disagreement or issue with another person then the only option they have is to talk it out like a normal person or contact the relevant authorities.
Murder should never be condoned. It’s disgusting to see how many adults have homicidal ideations.
correct. If we condone this, we condone setting people up to be murdered by sending them child pr0n and then going out to kill them "so they get what they deserve".
I hope you're just as serious and absolute regarding predators too. I notice you didn't mention that at all.
It’s easy to be high and mighty when something so vile has never struck your soul
Ice cold take
Of course, she didn't turn to her family. They flat out defended him in court, and she probably knew they would try to sweep it under the rug. That poor girl. Prayers for her.
Right. Also shows their character.
@@virginiabeech Murdering someone shows more about a persons character than anything.
Hmm, aparently there is no evidence of said photos and only she claims they exist. I see a lot of people making excuses for this murderer. If he had these photos illegally he shouldve been turned over to the police, not drugged and strangled.
Facts that some dum dums don’t understand
He wouldn’t have gone to jail. She did the right thing.
Wrong, she deleted the folders with the photos, but the detective was able to recover the one that was used as a screensaver.
@@valerierodger so he car that photo as a screensaver that anyone who came through could see?
My question is if he had pictures of her how did he get them?
I think there is a whole lot more to this case and situation than on the surface.
Over 100 pictures that she distributed herself. Not as a child, but as a grown adult..
She didn’t send them to him tho…and that’s her step dad. Tf
@@taylorsmith3597 when she post those pictures for general public to see, he can see it and have it too if he wants to. She was an adult and there is no law that prohibits him from having it. She took matters into her own hand and paid for it. Look for sympathy elsewhere! You can't murder someone and get away with it.
@@taylorsmith3597 HOW DID HE GET THEM......
@@Drippppppppp true.
Your brother was treated like trash because he was trash. He was her dad and he completely violated her in every way a dad should burn for doing.

Right! I was SA'd by my own father when i was little and it's traumatized me all these years later at 38 yrs of age.

@@mmenace2sobrietyy what pictures? Did we see them? Were they presented as evidence?... no.. no.. and no are your answers. Stop being naive, just because it's a woman you're so naive to believe anything she says... what a surprise haha
@@mmenace2sobrietyy you sound like a murderer. You don’t kill people period. Only killers plot murders!
She’s just a plain old murderer
The only victim here is that woman. The stepfather is disgusting. His family is disgusting, as well.
Why?
They had to have proof. You can still get the pictures even if u remove them. Usually has a cloud that's attached to the computer unless it's old computer. It's not worth life in prison. Think about your actions. Sleep on it. Think bout it.
TBH there is no way they could not be able to recover at least preview icons of those pictures... she is lying
Unless you scrubbed the computer completely and professionally, deleted items can be retrieved using data recovery software. I've used them in the past. If you think simply deleting and emptying your recycle bin is enough, you are wrong wrong wrong.
Forget about cloud storage. This was a computer, so it was most likely a HDD, therefore she would've had to rewrite over the whole thing several times in order to permanently remove the pictures files. Very unlikely she knows any of this procedure. She made up the whole story.
She did. Cold and calculated.
I would really like to know/debate the things people think are worthy of murder but are not illegal...
This is absolutely disgusting from the step father. But she should not have take justice on her own. She had no right to do so unless for self defense.
I' m so sorry for what she went through from such young age
No matter what he did... Murder is Never the Answer!
True
Easily 30% + of Americans would vehemently disagree with you. 2021.. 60% "favour" the death penalty.
I agree
Sorry your brother is a pervert 👿
This family is so sick. Speaking of their perverted brother as if he was a saint. They are all absolutely repulsive.
I wish she hadn't killed him but I also cannot imagine what she has been through. I'm not justifying her actions, but I'm so disgusted with the way her step-father is being defended.
There was no evidence supporting her side of the story or allegations. But the evidence of her guilt was overwhelming in addition to witnesses.
No regardless she didn't have right to kill him regardless photos ...
