@@raulpardomorales7994 Everything he said in this story was true. I've heard this story years ago and it's word for word based on who watched them die.
In all these stories what always screams in my head is what my 1st sgt taught me like 15 years ago. One of the first things he said to me was situational awareness will save your life; if you ever get that “feeling” no matter where you are or what your doing. Always trust your intuition.
Imagine someone showing up with 2 other people to check out the boat, one of which looks like a wrestler. There is no need for all those people there. Definitely would have raised my suspicions. That c*nt with the baby though, jesus.
@@hallsjuju2400 because we're used to not be in danger everyday, wich makes our survival instincts low. Tom & Jakie were living their best moments but when suddenly they get murdered by these sickos.
My mom has always, always told me that. That as adults, we've been conditioned to not listen to it: we'll be rude, its silly, we'll make the situation harder, etc etc etc. She said forget being polite or causing inconvenience, just get out of there.
I was also thinking about that name - Well deserved by Tom and Jackie, not well deserved by the ones who stole it, Tom and Jackie's fate not well deserved at all ... ugh just tragic :(
Sad thing is, Tom's initial gut feeling was that these guys were bad news. Always stick with your initial gut feeling, even if your gut changes its mind.
I think that the gut feeling doesn't change. The mind wants to believe that most people are good and not evil. I'm glad that Jennifer got the life w/o parole sentence. Everyone involved in this murder was evil ...
@@ralphalvarez5465 agreed. they may have acquiesced but that feeling never goes away. tom probably knew as soon as the baby stepped off the boat with it's (not being offensive, i didn't catch the gender) mother that they were royally effed.
Well, I mean, follow logic first your gut feeling isn't like some sort of magic sixth sense that alerts you of danger. Your gut feeling is wrong probably just as often as it's right. Your brain just holds tighter to memories of that feeling being right.
One of the saddest parts is how Tom ALMOST saved himself and his wife by listening to his gut instinct. Which is why Skylars wife should have gotten the death penalty as well. She planned the whole thing, yet she's still sitting in a warm environment, getting fed three meals a day. She will eventually adjust to her life in prison and even still have moments of happiness. While her victims are chained and rotting in the deep, dark, cold depths of the ocean. Where is the justice in that?
I agree...Prison is way too good for these monsters, especially since California did away with the death penalty...again! Imagine, 3 meals per day, a roof over your head, free medical (including sex-change) and get visitation rights. Not bad for cold-blooded murderers.
@@oldscratch2610 I'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact that she was not a participant in the actual murder. She is responsible, but not to the same extent as the men.
The horror those poor people experienced is unfathomable. This is a stark reminder of the evil that lives among us. Always trust your gut instincts, and be aware of your surroundings.
Sadly, their bodies will never be found due to the way decomposition works in the ocean. If there is ever any evidence found, it will only be the anchor and possibly personal items such as shoes, glasses, or other items of that sort. And it's only a very vague possibility that if something is found, and likely it would only be the anchor, chain, and handcuffs. The evil things some people can do is a horror. My heart bleeds for this poor couple and their sons, and the grandchild who will never see them.
there’s something about this story which is especially harrowing for me. The thought of this loving couple tied up and blindfolded- not exactly knowing what to expect. But suddenly hearing a chain and hearing an anchor going overboard.. and fighting against the weight of the anchor KNOWING it’s a losing battle. And ultimately being pulled into the deepest depths of the ocean and drowning. This is a next level depravity. The evil in this world is terrifying.
You do realise slavers did this frequently in transatlantic slavery, when a huge number of slaves fell ill or they merely had to many to feed? Humanity can be very heartless at time..
@@nograviti2388 oh I am very aware of this as a POC myself. The slave trade was one of the most inexcusable and demonic practices on human life ever documented. Cannot even fathom it sometimes. But the way Mr Ballen documented this story really made it hit home that evil is EVERYWHERE. People have always done and will always do things for personal or monetary gain. Gives me shivers tbh.
Is what came exactly to my mind. Many racist today still do things like that. Evil still exist today. This is why one united race, not colour must fight evil together. Cos someone racist that can do that out of hate will surely be pathological psychopath and do it to someone white under a different excuse. Is why someone deeply racist can’t be trusted by any race cos there’s something warped mentally to do evil just cos colour is different. Well that warped mind will impact still on others even if white just in different ways!
This story is very sad and disturbing. The ending made me very angry and I could tell that it made you extremely upset as well. Truly mind boggling what people can do to one another! You did this story justice my friend, keep up the good work!!!
I like how you say it's mind-boggling what people can do to one another to an ex military guy... 😂😂. You do know what they do to human beings they don't even know, right?
I started tearing up when he said Tom was seen rubbing Jackie’s arm while comforting her telling her “it’s going to be okay, whatever happens we’ll be together.” that is so devastating but in the same sense, comforting to know your last moments will be with the person you truly love.
They wanted to spend time with the family, so they were going to sell the boat to retire. What a horrible death, their killers should have been put to death.
I was working at a dive bar in really rural area in PA, in my early 20’s. It was super dark and creepy at night, with no nearby houses or businesses, and as it was a tiny place, I always worked alone. One night about 1am a souped up foreign car pulled into the parking lot. The lot was small and there were two huge windows that faced it, so you could see in the bar clearly at night, and it was observable that I was alone. Three young guys in “city” attire got out and started walking around the lot. One came in and asked if we had a pay phone (back before cell phones were the norm). I initially figured they were lost, as everyone in the area drove pick up trucks- and our clientele was mostly local, older men. Soon a second guy came in and I observed the 3 rd guy standing by the door. He ordered a beer, but didn’t have valid ID- so I refused to serve him. The first guy started asking if the owner was there, or someone else who would tell me to serve them. I told him the cook was in the back, as I was getting a really bad vibe. They then walked outside and were standing at the passenger side of their vehicle talking. Immediately I went and locked the door. They then came back and were pulling on the door, and one went around the back. I ran in the back, grabbed the biggest knife I could find, and called the owner to come down (he was closer than the cops, a vet, and always armed). As soon as they saw his truck pulling in they jumped in their car and took off like a bat out of hell! To this day I believe had I not locked the door, I would have been robbed, attacked, or worse. Always listen to your instincts!!!
They would have killed your azz, assuming you don't go out your way to make up paranormal stories..lol. I believe you 100 percent..you were smart, not lucky..unlike so many in here. You have common sense. Still...be careful of the tooth fairy, even worse...Bigfoot and them skinwalker things..nj male 56 and yes normal...
This story is heart breaking. The couple just seem like genuinely nice people enjoying the next phase in their life, retirement and becoming grandparents. Rest In Peace Tom and Jackie🙏🏽
@@SparkleLuna77 Unfortunately the evilness of people NEVER amazes me. Everyone has some evil inside of them. The truly horrific ones are those that want it to out in the world. What bothers ME is when people try to claim they only committed a crime/murder because they're mentally ill! All of these people say that their illnesses caused them to act out and they couldn't fight against it. What a bunch of MALARKY! I live with Bipolar, Borderline Personality, PTSD, and 3 other psychological disorders and I manage not to commit crimes quite easily! I'm with Dean Winchester on this... “Demons, I get...But people are crazy.”
I’m not a paranoid person but stories like these really make me a firm believer of always listening to your gut feelings. To think they used their own Baby to create a false sense of security for these people is just sick. May they Rest In Peace.
Yes, the whole story sickens me, but when that girl brought her baby, smh! I think just for that AND THE WHOLE THING BEING HER IDEA, SHE SHOULD'VE GOTTEN LIFE LIKE THEY DID!
Listening to my gut instinct has saved my ass if not life more than once. This story has me angry and sad and sickened. Thank you for telling people to listen to their instinct. Some of the best advice that could be given. I wish I could personally throw the switch on this guy. And his scumbag buddies.
Sound and solid advise ! It is a type of oxymoron to be raised to survive and then to be conditioned by society/family / friends that our gut instincts should be dismissed and in turn are then classified with demeaning Psy. words and phrases ! Always follow them. They arise for a very valid reason ! Thank you @Empireman for bringing the topic forth. This should be required life training ! God Bless and Keep to All ! ✝️
I sold a laptop on facebook a while back. The first guy that wanted it showed up and didn't look anything like his profile picture. He also showed up with two other guys. I didn't have a good feeling about it. I spoke to him through my doorbell camera and told him I got a better price and sold it to someone else. He tried to bargain at first and then got really angry and aggressive when he realized I wasn't going to open the door. I reminded him that I had all their faces on camera and had cameras all around the house. They left, and I never saw them again, thankfully. I sold the computer later, but I met the next person in a public coffee shop. Didn't give my address ever again. Maybe my gut was wrong. I'll never know for sure. I'd rather offend someone and be wrong than have something bad happen being polite
TO much wrong with that story... the guy getting aggressive... two other guys with him... THANK YOU for listing to your inner voice, which will always guide you!
Thank you so much for following the life of the victims in this story and not banking on the shock value of the killers. Way too often we watch content that is all about these killers and their life and rarely mention the victim in any capacity which just makes them seem like a step in the killers story instead of a living, breathing, human being. Seriously thank you so much
Absolutely!!! People need to call out the disgusting sensationalism of criminals in many videos and Netflix crime documentaries 🤢. It's so sad and gross.
When Tom said to Jackie “it’s going to be okay, what ever happens to us we are going to be together “ it made the hairs on my body stand up and sent chills over my body. 😢
@@ladyyuna2000 probably not. Sadly they were probably eaten by bottom feeders. Their skeletons May remain. This is just a terrible story pisses me off.
No background music, no over the top editing, no jump cuts etc… just goes to show that big isn’t always better. You’re a great storyteller! I just found this channel and you kept my attention 100% of the time. I’ve heard this story on different crime shows but your version was the most informative. You just gained a new subscriber!
Mr Ballen is the best storyteller out here! He shows such compassion when telling about these horrible crimes! Plus he's very careful about the facts of the stories. Very smooth and fluid storytelling. Everything he talks about he does a phenomenal job with! I've been known to binge on his videos for hours!😆
What a horrifying way to die. Knowing you can't do anything to save your wife, trying everything, and then to be met with that at the end.. My god. RIP Tom and Jackie. Rest easy.
I ALWAYS appreciate how he spends more time telling about the victims lives than the perpetrator... people are naturally curious about why and how people can be so evil that the victims are lost and I've noticed Mr. Ballen takes special care not to let that happen on his story as much as he can. THANK YOU!!
I think a lot of channels are starting to do that. I've noticed a lot of people have started putting the victim's name in the title and thumbnail rather than the perpetrator.
I feel sick, so... Let us just appreciate how amazing Jackie and Tom were. Tom tried to comfort his wife even in the most dire situation, Jackie sounding like a wonderful mom. I hope they rest in peace and meet again in their next life
Literally the only silver linings in this whole story were the husband and wife at least dying together (separately would have been more tragic IMHO), the other four being caught and convicted fairly soon afterwards (and never getting to enjoy the proceeds of their crime), and the evil couple’s baby (hopefully) getting to grow up in a new family that would love the child and raise it well without the neglect and abuse the child would likely have endured with a mother and father that would happily exploit their own child for personal gain, no good mother or father would ever exploit their child to earn and exploit the trust of others like that as that shows a complete lack of empathy and respect for their own child.
This is one of those stories that hurts me the most, it is so devastating. This story and the story of that mom and her 2 daughters that went on that vacation after one of the daughters was assaulted by a family friend, and then they took a boat ride with a man that assaulted and k*lled all of them. I think about that family and this couple all the time, the compete depravity that people are capable of is just sick
Yeah I watched that story then this one on the same day a couple of years ago and they f-ed me up so much that they totally put me off true crime until just recently. Horrifying.
@XxderpnuggetxX Oba Chandler was the pos that committed the crime. The victims were Joan Rogers and her 2 daughters. Be warned, it is a really sad story
That is so sad. Fortunately she's never going to meet the despicable people who did this horrific crime. Don't imagine she'd want to though. Even if she forgave her mother for being so hateful, who'd want a parent that loves money enough to kill for it... ya know?
Yeah, I can imagine. I had to wonder what my birth parents were like and why I was taken from them. I was told that it was too horrible to talk about. My imagination ran wild for almost forty years, until I finally found my birth family through DNA. I was SO relieved to find out that I simply came from two young teenagers in love. Their parents just wouldn't let them keep me. So they weren't in prison or anything like that.
This story, the one of the mom and the daughters with a similar fate, and the elderly couple buried alive by a woman that used to be a family friend are the stories that will never leave me. Unreal the level of evilness that humans are capable of.
That one scarred me too. Constantly reminding myself that people who are evil enough to carry out acts like that are few compared to "normal" people like you and I. Much love!
@@shounakghosh7904 The first one is about the mom and 2 daughters who went on a boat ride with a stranger, the other I think, is the one where a teenager and her boyfriend killed the elderly couple that treated her like a daughter. They’re on Mr Ballen’s channel.
"As of November 2021, Tom & Jackie Hawks' bodies have still not been found." That made me tear up a bit, such innocent people excited to be with their family were murdered with no remorse. May their souls rest in paradise and may their families find peace.
Whatever, there's no paradise. They were robbed of their paradise by these scumbags. This world is trash and this is why you should always conceal carry, especially before a meeting like this. If they were both strapped, it would have greatly improved their odds. Or, hell, even had a friend or family member go with them, also strapped.
Also, never let yourself be outnumbered in isolation. Especially when any of them are your size or larger. His instincts were right. Another thing I heard someone point out when I heard this story a while back, regarding selling a boat, or really anything of high value, if someone contacts you really quickly with a lot of interest, be weary especially if they “have the money”. There really aren’t many people just walking around out there with hundreds of thousands jumping on opportunities to blow that money. And any eagerness is a huge red flag. Either way, never do a private sale unarmed, in isolation, without your own type of security and someone knowing exactly where you are and what to do if they don’t hear from you by a certain time. Personally, if I buy something from someone, I’m armed, and my phone has gps active, wife paying attention to it, and I call her, and leave the call connected with the phone in my pocket.
Word. That reminds me of another story where a pregnant woman was lured to someones house to buy baby clothes, and then the lady living there, pretending to be a young mother, ended up murdering her, and cutting out her baby OO So yea, definitely should keep cautious in those situations, because that is an easy way to disarm people.
I know not everyone will agree with this, but it is cases like this that reinforce my opinion that some people deserve the death penalty and we do not need to waste time trying to rehabilitate them.
Financially, I agree. As far as punishment, I think spending decades in a 5×8 cell is worse than death. No socialization, no tv, no contact with others. Just exist in a tiny cell.
I have actually heard this story a couple of times, but I had no idea the totally awful and heartbreaking way they were actually murdered...you definitely have a way of showing compassion while still giving graphic details of how everything happens..you make them seem more like real people (which they are) instead of making them just another story...thank you for all that you do💜
@@MrBallen How do you feel after listening to such a story? Does it disturb you? Or not much now ? And does it disturb your wife too? Have you become very cautious in your life? Sorry for the barrage of questions , but after watching dozens of your videos and especially this one , I had to ask you. Can you give some safety tips after some videos ?
@@Sc413tt.clarke yeah that's fucking weird. Why do you feel the need for self validation in a RUclips comment section, from sum1 you've never even met before?
This story is gutrenching, I can't imagine the fear Jackie and Tom felt as they were pulled into the ocean, knowing they were going to die. How people can be so cruel to one another is beyond me.
@@OhHeyItsDanny You do realize that we are living in the safest time in human history right? Fewer murders happen today than at any other time humans have been alive and America is one of the safest countries on earth. Don't let information cloud your world view. Sure there are murders but life even 100 years ago was far far more violent.
@@OhHeyItsDanny Not only America but the whole human race.Look at the $ spent on weapons from pistols to nuclear bombs.If this $ had been spent on medical research and other items to benefit mankind what a different world this would be.Putin is killing thousands of Ukrainians and his own troops by invading a neighboring nation.Icould go on and on.
@@paulahunt3508 @The Finn Cute. But whether or not you think the rainbow unicorn is on your side or the leprechaun has made them do it: They did it. They rationalised it away, they didn't have the empathy to care, and that's just humanity. No cosmic opposed forces 'gave them free will' or 'set them up to do this'. They did the maths, they made the plans, they followed through. And thinking that any cosmic force forges will is just the way a lot of people manage to do this: After all, if your own base desires are literally 'the devil' who is all powerful or whatnot, how can you resist? The devil made you do it. Or even better: God wants you to. So try and turn off that religious diarrhea, because it has caused people to do worse.
Same here...every time I picture the image of how they died, it gives me a horrible, sick, twisting feeling in my stomach (which has happened like 20 times in the past 2 days)... It's such a feeling of grief and confusion (I honestly cannot imagine what it would be like to be one of their loved ones and learning what happened to them.. I hope they can find some kind of peace, somehow).
I watched a documentary about this cas3 a few years ago, and also was very negatively affected by it. The way they were killed is just so incredibly evil and cruel. This is one of those cases where I wish the killers would be executed the same way they killed that innocent couple.
You're really providing a great service to average, good and trusting people to take every precaution when involved with high priced anything, and money. So many sociopaths.
Imagine how Tom's brother must have felt after the truth came out. He had unknowingly spoken to one of the people responsible for his bother's and sister-in-law's horrific death. RIP Tom and Jackie.
This left an uncomfortable feeling in my stomach the fact that these two were just such good people.. I think I need a moment to process this amount of evil.
I'm experiencing that as well, never had this feeling before, it feels like something heavy, tugging in my stomach. I sincerely hope that the two murdering scumbags death penalty, when it's carried out, goes wrong in some way so that they endure a long slow, lingering, painful ending, total scum! As for the female accomplice, hopefully her own child never has anything to do with her as he/she grows up, leaving her with a long lonely life behind bars.
What about the Notary Kathleen Harris? She should be sentenced too for at least year or more in prison. Being a notary, you are the servant, of the public service and requires upmost honesty and integrity. I am a notary myself. If my boss called me and tells me to notarize a document that he had signed; I would refuse. Does not matter if he is my boss or the president, notary documents must be signed in front of the notary after validating ID and identity.
I cannot imagine the amount of fear the Hawks must have felt in those final seconds. Jackie seemed like a beautiful soul and Tom, a good and loving husband and father. My heart breaks for their sons and loved ones who have to live with knowing what happened to them. No punishment, no amount of time in prison is enough for the monsters who committed such a horrific crime.
This is the most horrific story I have ever heard. FOUR people thought this was okay. This hurt my heart for the pain and terror Jackie and Tom went through and for their families having to know this happened.
This case has always made me uncomfortable, mainly due to how they were murdered. I haven't seen it covered so passionately before now. Thank you for allowing people to see just how happy they were, how hard they had worked towards their dream, how much family meant to them both. Their final moments are heartbreaking; thank you for covering them with equal passion.
I agree, well said my friend. They deserve all of our love and thoughts and prayers. Just because they’re gone in the most awful way imaginable doesn’t mean they don’t deserve the attention and love from the world. They were a beautiful couple
@@tspwall0923 20/20 did. In the photos he shows, he provides resource credit captions at the bottom, that give credit to abc and 20/20. Mr Ballen is a smart guy and knows how to do things the legal and right way unlike a lot of youtubers that get their content removed for copyright infringement. And he definitely speaks with extreme passion. Hes not reading any of this and explains it so vividly like he was there. Hes got an amazing ability to tell stories and sometimes its too well conveyed that i have to turn it off cuz its just too real and disturbing. That poor couple was nervous beforehand. Had no idea theyd suffer the way they did. All thanks to that bitch! Unthinkable evil. So glad that baby found a new home though. Anyone else would be more fit than those POS murderers.
The judge should have given Alonso life without parole as well. Then when he'd ask about his reduced sentence the judge could have said not being put to death is the reduction

I dont understand why police make deals with criminals. I dont care if you have to lie to the criminal to get them to confess...They didnt give their victim a chance. Why should they get a chance?

MrBallen USED TO tell good stories, now he just tells the stories of people being THE WORST KINDS OF HUMANS and it's just not much fun anymore.... I liked it when he told ghost stories, now I just feel sad and depressed every time his videos are over... not sure I can handle much more of this... it's a shame, I REALLY liked him when I found him on Instagram, it was fun back then. Now it's just like I'm watching ID Discovery or Forensic Files... I'd rather go back to the Cave Diving stories even though they sucked too
Always remember-if someone can quickly confess to a wrong doing of any sort, especially like money laundering, you better believe they are trying to cover up something far worse.
@Ben O*Telling it like it is! They say things done in darkness always come to light. Well, sometimes they don't and a lot of times it doesn't end well!
Exactly right! You admit to a lesser offense to make yourself seem more reliable. Also, to pull attention away from a deeper or greater offense. Good catch. :)
i don’t even want to begin to imagine what tom felt the moment he realized his initial gut feeling about those twisted people was right. may tom & jackie forever live in paradise together, away from all the evil in this world.
The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. No man enters paradise without the saving power of Christ's precious sacrifice. No matter how tragic an end they may meet.
my only issue with religion is they say we can’t be forgiven we unless we bow to their mercy and preachings,yet say god forgives all unless you do this or that or this until you ask for forgiveness. I fully believe in god he has brought me through times so dark most would be consumed. I don’t however trust man’s account of god. humans are and always will be flawed. God bless. I believe our souls are recycled in the process of reincarnation. But as I said people are flawed so are so my assumptions
@@robdagr8te no one is forgive by God except he who bows to Christ. God loves us, this is true, but if we reject Him, He is just to punish us as the Good Judge that He is. You and I are criminals. In a perfect world, criminals pay the perfect price for their crimes. God is Perfect.
@@robdagr8te The bible was written by a person, therefore, there's bound to be a lot of error in it. Believe what you want about it, and you'll know what's right and what's wrong one day.
What a horrific way to die!! 😮😢 The entire situation is “F’d” up and the way they had to listen to the chain unraveling-knowing their fate is soon approaching … so daunting and sad! 😞
I'm glad you actually talk about the victims backgrounds. I see so many true crime channels that give murderers full background, but barely talk about the victim.
So sad, and to think there are many people who are like that in this world. And a kid star...it look like the power rangers to me. Does anyone else remember that show? The power of greed is horrible and yes as many other comments said she should have been given the death penalty also. She was the mastermind behind the whole thing. She could have stopped this but didn't nothing but watch the $$$$$ roll up. Can't say this is a crazy world because all in all it's a great world. But some neighbors, people, and so on are crazy as he##. Got me thinking I rather stay home, you go on ahead. Piece to all.
I feel like even saying the name of the scumbags should be illegal or at least frowned upon. Some of these animals do what they do to become famous or infamous. Not mentioning them at all might deter them from acting. Make the victims the story instead
As someone has mentioned before, the main takeaway for this story is, "trust your gut, and don't let someone manipulate you into doing otherwise." This is such an awful story. My heart goes out to the Hawks family.
I don't think following your gut is advice for everyone. To my dismay, I have often thought the best of people and don't usually pick up on a person with bad intent. Maybe, I just want it to be the case, or whatever; regardless I am often too trusting and have lost money and been hurt by people when , maybe, I should have seen red flags or just didn't want to believe them. "When you see someone through rose colored glasses, the red flags disappear." -said by someone that got hurt I'm just saying, people should know themselves and acknowledge their own faults before trusting their own gut. That's one reason to have good true friends.
The constitution allows us the right to protect ourselves from these sick individuals. Protect your 2A rights. If Tom or his wife had CCW they would likely be alive today. Truth!
You nailed it Vince Brown... There is a reason why we have a gut feeling or intuition, it's there to protect us from our civility. We are so worried we are going to offend someone that we wind up putting ourselves in potentially dangerous situations, which is evident from this video. What a really devastating sad ending to what appeared to be have been a storybook marriage and life.
Gut instinct is total alarm this poor couple so disgusting humans doing this to each other over greed. Plea deals should never be awarded to killers. Just remove any life sentences and a life for a life to all of them.
“Man’s inhumanity to man” has never been more evident than in this case. This is so much more disturbing than so-called “horror” stories, in my opinion. Thank you, John, for telling us this story. May God have mercy on us all!

This made me physically ill thinking of Tom and Jackie and the horror they endured. I will never understand the evil people like Skylar are capable of...
The end of this story kinda tells me it might of been the wife being manipulative considering his prior crime wouldn’t necessarily lead to this could be wrong though. No matter how you look at it though it’s disgusting what people will do to another living person for abit of cash
@@itzmrbeau6386 for Skylar to yell "woohoo!" after just murdering two innocent people does not indicate manipulation in the slightest. sure, it may have been his wife's idea, but she did not force his hands. he could have easily spared Jackie and Tom after they signed the bill of sale. everyone that took part in this crime is equally disgusting, vile, and guilty.
@@staycurious3954 I've done meth and so do millions of other people drugs don't make you evil just like guns don't kill people. Drugs are no more influencing then your favorite song on the radio. Some people are evil. Also I would like to know if there's more to this story skyler was Italian and the guy who owned the boat was evidently a cop which makes him an evil pos. So sounds like the only truly innocent person in this was the old lady.
I just found this channel and after a couple of episodes I want to watch the rest. You’re a great storyteller, a clear speaker, and the editing is smooth with no annoying repetition of what we’ve just been shown or annoying background music. Well done. These stories are haunting but victims’ stories deserve to be heard and it makes us a little more vigilant.
Such a heartbreaking story. Tom and Jackie were good people, great parents, and they would have been amazing grandparents. I wish this never happened. May they Rest In Peace 🌹
Not just their demise, but the way it happened. As soon as I saw the #powerrangers in the description, I knew who it was from a Dateline episode. The episode described how they held hands as they were bound. Heartbreaking and disturbing. I wish it could be eye for an eye.
This is honestly one of the most horrific stories I’ve ever heard. Not sure if it’s because of the gruesome details or your story telling abilities but those people deserve all their time in prison. Rip to the beautiful couple
@@og8550 Complete psychopaths for the good of humanity should be eliminated, preferably after a short but painful time in some skinny basement with spiders and burners. Damn, I sound like some kind of psycho myself, but I'm agitated by this story. Google translator apologizes for everything.
I’ve listened to/learned about HUNDREDS of true crime cases. Yet this one definitely stays in the top 3 worst ones. It’s so incredibly heart wrenching and EVIL!!!! It truly makes me want to cry and vomit at the same time. So so so horrifying.
After Skylar Killed Tom And Jackie, He Had A Sex Change In Prison And Attempted To Cut Off His Own Penis On March 13, 2008, Deleon partially severed her penis with a razor blade while being held in jail. After receiving medical attention, she was returned to jail the following day. In an interview with ABC's 20/20, Deleon indicated that she attempted to cut off her penis because she, assigned male at birth, wanted to be a woman. Defense lawyers claimed that Deleon's need for money to finance sex reassignment surgery was the motivation for the Hawks' murders. In 2019, Deleon’s gender was legally changed to female and Deleon’s name is now Skylar Preciosa Deleon.
@@kelleyk28they did move the boat & got rid of the anchor - right out in the middle of the ocean. How could they possibly find them so deep in the middle of nowhere. What I don’t get is why these criminals docked the boat back in the same place & hung around to get caught?! It’s just plain stupidity. I’m glad they did though or the case may never have been solved. I hope they feel more fear & pain than Tom & Jackie did when it comes time for their death sentences to be carried out‼️
This story gave me such anxiety. I can't imagine the fear and trauma in their heads before they hit the water, poor souls. My heart goes out to their families. RIP 💙
This is eeriely similar to another story here, but in that video the boat owner is a serial killer and he invited 3 members of a family for a ride, then he hogtied them and throw them to the sea to die a horrible death.
I always remember a phrase from The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo "The fear of offending can be stronger than the fear of pain." I have always remembered that phrase when I'm in uncomfortable situations. Sometimes follow your gut and just say 'No'. Screw social norms.
I remember watching that movie and thinking how dangerously true that statement was and thinking of the many times I have been foolishly guilty of this myself!
thank you. saw movie but did not stick to me. It has cost me thousands to be mr. let me help, i trust you, you need it more than i do type of guy. perhaps i will not change but at least will think twice now.
This story has haunted me for years. The victims spent their last minutes telling each other how much they loved each other. Even as they were being pulled overboard by the anchor.
I’ve watched many of Mr Ballens videos and I know that I will never forget this story. It deeply saddens me knowing that Tom and Jackie’s last moments were knowing that they were going to die and not be able to see their children ever again and never be able to meet their grand baby. And the one thing that truly disturbs me is how they died. That sweet innocent couple died in one of the most horrific ways. The murderer didn’t even take their lives before throwing them into the water. He just watched them drown while being fully conscious 😞 that man is evil and I’m glad he got a life sentence and is going to die. And he is going to die being fully aware that his life will end. Tom and Jackie have got justice but it will never bring them back and that is the most crushing thing.
@@freecountry3544 he's clearly not intellectual when he exposed him self regarding info on the money. Would have gotten away with it if he and his accomplices just kept their mouth shut.
@@tommychoppa7564 In his little rotted, psycho brain, he was trying to deflect blame FROM him. "Duh, I was only trying to make some dirty money clean, and I wuz a "bad" boi (not really), but I didn't kill nobody!" And in his twisted world, the police would have been like, "understandable, have a great day, sir. Absolutely nothing to see here, and we never have to talk about this never ever again. Here's some clean money for the road." In these socio/psychopath's logic, that would have worked if reality ran by that. In their head they make all the sense and logic, and everyone better recognize and give in, because how can you not? What are you stupid? Un-logical? Did you hear what they said? They didn't do anything wrong. But reality doesn't work like that. Which is one MAJOR weakness we should 100% exploit in all dark triads. They ALL act like this.
That was just a story Skylar made up to get Alonzo to go along with things. The only money he was getting was from the stolen boat and access to Tom and Jackie’s possessions after they were murdered. A real hired assassin wouldn’t involve accomplices, and likely wouldn’t torture the victims beforehand either.
@@DarkeningSkies1 Thank you. But if he had really promised him a mil, why didn't the other guy kill him for breaking the deal? I guess the million was also a lie by Alonzo to the cops
I just can't imagine how his son felt. All of this because they wanted to be closer to him and his children.. This one hits really hard. Tom, you're a real Legend. Rest in peace
If that where my mother and father that man better repent everyday in prison because I’d come for him as soon as he’s released. I hope these boys are capable of forgiveness over retaliation.
When the killer's wife shows up with their baby to break the tension barrier was such a low blow. Hit me right in the feels 💔🤦. I can only imagine Jackie's excitement upon seeing the baby and feel comforted based on their expected grandchild.
It makes you wonder what sort of life that baby might have had with his mother if the parents were not caught and convicted so soon afterwards. A mother that sees her own child as little more than a prop to be used and exploited to scam others likely would have meant a life of childhood abuse and neglect for that baby. Hopefully that child has grown up with a far more loving family (fingers crossed as such is by no means guaranteed). I am very grateful their greed did them in and that they are very unlikely to ever walk this Earth free ever again, though I would have much rather the other couple had survived and had the opportunity to help raise their grandbaby. There is far too much evil in this world.
My heart breaks for Jackie, Tom and their loved ones. It takes a truly sick mind to not just come up with such an evil plan, but to carry it out and stand by watching while they fought and begged for their lives.
@@bobbydecoff1219 Have you finished the video? It literally says in the end that their bodies have no been found as off November 2021, but currently, I wouldn't know and I'm too lazy to find out
Random but as someone who is pretty much deaf I'm so grateful for how clearly Mr.Ballen speaks and how articulate he is so the CC is almost always 100% accurate 👌💯
"Of the hundreds of stories I've covered" It's insane that Mr.Ballen has only been doing RUclips for a year. When I first started watching his channel I was sure he had like 3-5 years under his belt due to how much content he had. Man he definitely put in some work, very impressive.
While I’m happy he’s had so much success, I find the fact he’s been able to become so successful disturbing. Not him, but the fact the world is so fucked up that he will never run out of content.
Tom’s kids must be heartbroken. Never be able to give his dad and stepmom a proper burial. Now these people are real monsters and deserve everything they get.
I always meet up at my local police station when buying/selling on fb marketplace! Thankfully i’ve never picked up something that i HAD to go to someones home or vice versa (like furniture)
@@mjg-98 Good Idea! My mom worked with a guy and he told her how he was so excited that he was picking up his new puppy after work that day....even as he left work that day he had a huge smile on his face saying " this is the LAST day I will come home to an empty home after work!!!" something along those lines He was a young guy, I believe in his early 20's.....needless to say, the guy(s) with the " puppy" met up with him........I don't know all of the small details like if they showed up with an actual puppy or not but bottom line is they KNEW he had cash on him to purchase a puppy...so they not only robbed him but killed him as well : ( He was so excited for that puppy :( Little did he know :( They had a "celebration of life" get together for him and I went with my mom....felt so sooooo bad for the guy and his family : ( I wish he had thought like you and met up the police station.....great advice and I will def be using it if I ever have to meet up with anyone for a sale etc..
As my wife is also my best friend, this story is heartbreaking and it hits home....i cant even begin to imagine how it must have felt. The horror they went through and Tom comforting his wife, knowing it is their last moments alive...shocking. This goes to show, again, that reality is often so much more gruesome then fiction.
When mr.ballen said Tom was stroking Jackie’s hand and told her at least we’ll be together I cried :( such an awful death I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. They just wanted to be with their family.
Same. I'm crying again just reading your comment. I'm sure it is a thought that their children have had too. Amazing how the smallest comfort in the midst of such horror can keep us going. I hope they were able to somehow hold onto each other til the end.
Beyond cruel, this story is hard to hear as someone who never met the couple. For their loved ones, knowing their final moments must be torture. The way Mr Ballen immediately followed the tragic story with his jokey shtick about the 'Like' button was pretty crass.
@@glamdolly30 I think he means it to transition out of that heavy space but it doesnt always work. I like it at the beginning though. And I'm really glad he got rid if the hidden clue in the videos. I think he meant it to lighten things up where he could but it never worked for me.
@@glamdolly30 He always does it after the most graphic or painful stories. It's done to break it up and allow the viewer a bit of respite. It's like he's offering you ginger to cleanse your palate.
Never, ever distrust your gut. It knows on a deeper level when something's wrong. Such a shame. Such a nice couple Tom and Jackie were. Terrible story, but I love Mr Ballen' s storytelling!!
It is Terrible...And how they Used the Baby to calm them down ... Sick...and get them on the ship...as soon as the GF left with the Baby Tom must have had a sense but. You know this type of Evil happens to people everyday. Its heart breaking for there sons and I would not wish that Shit on my worst enemy ( not that i have any ....)I felt the same way. after they got the Chain.... i skipped ahead!

“I know the defendant could care less about my family, how we feel, how this horrific crime has affected us,” said the 31-year-old. “I urge the defendant’s family to give up the children for adoption. The best possible future these children can ever have growing up is not knowing who their biological parents were, what they did, and how the children themselves were used as decoys [in the plot] to murder my parents for financial gain.” Ryan Hawkes during the trial about the Deleons’ children

@@lavenderflowers1075 I get not being religious, I’m not religious either. But there’s no need to be disrespectful towards the dead or someone wishing the dead well.
When someone voluntarily confesses to wrongdoing, it’s often an attempt to cover something even worse. When Skylar confessed to laundering drug money- which could get you locked up for years- you could at that point be fairly confident he’d done something far worse.
I assumed setting the couple up to get the drug dealer's money back for a cut/ or getting them killed as decoys if the person he stole from caught them . but the simplest answer is usually truth . They should have used a broker since buying a boat is akin to buying a house- you have to show it or you cant expect to sell it, but i would never agree to meet strangers in a private setting where anything foul could happen- and be covered up- and did. What rotten luck they had.
Yeah but its a MrBallen story- so we expected plot twists. "They were thrown overboard." Is pretty cut and dried. Still horrfic and grisly without the details. I wouldn't trust ANYONE who showed up with that kind of cash anyway- only drug dealers would deal in cash at those amounts. Of course they could easily steal it back. No BABY is gonna set me at ease in those circumstances. Especially when she backed out.
@@douganderson7002 It’s an aspect of human nature that detectives attempt to leverage all the time. When they’re interviewing someone they believe may be guilty of a crime, they suggest something lesser to see if the suspect will confess to that. It’s the same principle if the suspect himself initiates the lesser-crime admission. Of course it doesn’t mean that the person is indeed trying to cover for something worse; his confession could be absent any guile or subterfuge. But- and this is hearsay- criminals lie.
Tom and Jackie were the epitome of good, loving people, while the Deleons are the epitome of the worst. Such a heartbreaking story, I hope the Hawks family can find some sort of peace--I hope Tom and Jackie can be found someday.
You know, I was thinking the same thing, that perhaps the Navy in San Diego might be able to search for the couple...but I don't know if that would be a comfort to their children ...
As sad as it is to admit, by this point it will never happen. That depth for this long, the most that might be found is the anchor, the chain, and the handcuffs.
I'm from Melbourne, Australia and just came across your channel and love it! I'm not sure if you know about the Mr Cruel case in Melbourne back in 80's & 90's but it would be a true crime story I think you'd find interesting to look into. It still gives chills to Melbournians now. I lived through it and not only did it change the way parents parented, but it has gone into further generations and the fear that we all felt has been passed to our own kids. Thanks again for a great channel!
The whole situation was bad enough, but the fact they implicated their own baby in a murder plot just for money truly makes this a very disturbing case.
At every situation, there will be this guy (read Aztec Warrior) who understands every word but gives a different meaning to it (and adds a 'dash' of science just to irritate others)
The fact the Jennifer went to tv shows to advocate for her murderer husband, with full awareness of her and her husband's crimes gives me chills....like how much of a sadist you have to be to do this??
@@homelessEh Dude, if that’s what you think about 50% of all the people that live in this country…you got more serious problems than the couple in this story.
It’s Tom & Jackie Hawkes. Jackie signed Hawks because she was signing under duress so the bank will be notified & not give access to those satanic spawns on the couple’s account.

@@whynotfandy wtf
@@whynotfandy serious ?
In all these stories what always screams in my head is what my 1st sgt taught me like 15 years ago. One of the first things he said to me was situational awareness will save your life; if you ever get that “feeling” no matter where you are or what your doing. Always trust your intuition.
Imagine someone showing up with 2 other people to check out the boat, one of which looks like a wrestler. There is no need for all those people there. Definitely would have raised my suspicions. That c*nt with the baby though, jesus.
Sounds like something I wish my dad had taught me. He was a Marine.
Why do we ignore that intuition.
@@hallsjuju2400 because we're used to not be in danger everyday, wich makes our survival instincts low. Tom & Jakie were living their best moments but when suddenly they get murdered by these sickos.
My mom has always, always told me that. That as adults, we've been conditioned to not listen to it: we'll be rude, its silly, we'll make the situation harder, etc etc etc. She said forget being polite or causing inconvenience, just get out of there.
''Well Deserved''... such a tragic irony.
Tom and Jackie deserved way better that this gruesome fate.
I was also thinking about that name - Well deserved by Tom and Jackie, not well deserved by the ones who stole it, Tom and Jackie's fate not well deserved at all ... ugh just tragic :(
Such a tragic story, second time I hear about it ...still heat in my heart
😢
The guy got a sex change in prison and breasts thanks to Kamala Harris. We paid for it.
Such a loving beautiful couple 😢
So sad
Sad thing is, Tom's initial gut feeling was that these guys were bad news. Always stick with your initial gut feeling, even if your gut changes its mind.
I think that the gut feeling doesn't change. The mind wants to believe that most people are good and not evil. I'm glad that Jennifer got the life w/o parole sentence. Everyone involved in this murder was evil ...
@@ralphalvarez5465 I agree with your statement sir!
@@ralphalvarez5465 agreed. they may have acquiesced but that feeling never goes away. tom probably knew as soon as the baby stepped off the boat with it's (not being offensive, i didn't catch the gender) mother that they were royally effed.
Well, I mean, follow logic first your gut feeling isn't like some sort of magic sixth sense that alerts you of danger. Your gut feeling is wrong probably just as often as it's right. Your brain just holds tighter to memories of that feeling being right.
Agree completely
One of the saddest parts is how Tom ALMOST saved himself and his wife by listening to his gut instinct. Which is why Skylars wife should have gotten the death penalty as well. She planned the whole thing, yet she's still sitting in a warm environment, getting fed three meals a day. She will eventually adjust to her life in prison and even still have moments of happiness. While her victims are chained and rotting in the deep, dark, cold depths of the ocean. Where is the justice in that?
I agree...Prison is way too good for these monsters, especially since California did away with the death penalty...again! Imagine, 3 meals per day, a roof over your head, free medical (including sex-change) and get visitation rights. Not bad for cold-blooded murderers.
Yeah.....but she’s female so she gets it lighter, that’s how the prison system works my friend
@@oldscratch2610 Sad though.
@@oldscratch2610 I'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact that she was not a participant in the actual murder. She is responsible, but not to the same extent as the men.
Nice profile picture tho
The horror those poor people experienced is unfathomable. This is a stark reminder of the evil that lives among us. Always trust your gut instincts, and be aware of your surroundings.
Unfathomable? Was that unintended dark humor?
Among us
Among us
Lol isn't fathoms a measurement off water depth?
yes... you could say these type of people among us are...very.....
Sus.
Well. Being anchored 3500 ft below the ocean is the most horrifying thing I’ve ever heard…
Indeed..
Sadly, their bodies will never be found due to the way decomposition works in the ocean. If there is ever any evidence found, it will only be the anchor and possibly personal items such as shoes, glasses, or other items of that sort. And it's only a very vague possibility that if something is found, and likely it would only be the anchor, chain, and handcuffs.
The evil things some people can do is a horror. My heart bleeds for this poor couple and their sons, and the grandchild who will never see them.
there’s something about this story which is especially harrowing for me. The thought of this loving couple tied up and blindfolded- not exactly knowing what to expect. But suddenly hearing a chain and hearing an anchor going overboard.. and fighting against the weight of the anchor KNOWING it’s a losing battle. And ultimately being pulled into the deepest depths of the ocean and drowning. This is a next level depravity. The evil in this world is terrifying.
You do realise slavers did this frequently in transatlantic slavery, when a huge number of slaves fell ill or they merely had to many to feed? Humanity can be very heartless at time..
@@nograviti2388 oh I am very aware of this as a POC myself. The slave trade was one of the most inexcusable and demonic practices on human life ever documented. Cannot even fathom it sometimes.
But the way Mr Ballen documented this story really made it hit home that evil is EVERYWHERE. People have always done and will always do things for personal or monetary gain. Gives me shivers tbh.
Is what came exactly to my mind. Many racist today still do things like that. Evil still exist today. This is why one united race, not colour must fight evil together. Cos someone racist that can do that out of hate will surely be pathological psychopath and do it to someone white under a different excuse. Is why someone deeply racist can’t be trusted by any race cos there’s something warped mentally to do evil just cos colour is different. Well that warped mind will impact still on others even if white just in different ways!
@@11kwright good 😌

I agree, I can't wrap my mind around the thought process of a person who'd even participate in such an evil act.
I like how you say it's mind-boggling what people can do to one another to an ex military guy... 😂😂. You do know what they do to human beings they don't even know, right?
I started tearing up when he said Tom was seen rubbing Jackie’s arm while comforting her telling her “it’s going to be okay, whatever happens we’ll be together.” that is so devastating but in the same sense, comforting to know your last moments will be with the person you truly love.
They wanted to spend time with the family, so they were going to sell the boat to retire. What a horrible death, their killers should have been put to death.

I was working at a dive bar in really rural area in PA, in my early 20’s. It was super dark and creepy at night, with no nearby houses or businesses, and as it was a tiny place, I always worked alone. One night about 1am a souped up foreign car pulled into the parking lot. The lot was small and there were two huge windows that faced it, so you could see in the bar clearly at night, and it was observable that I was alone. Three young guys in “city” attire got out and started walking around the lot. One came in and asked if we had a pay phone (back before cell phones were the norm). I initially figured they were lost, as everyone in the area drove pick up trucks- and our clientele was mostly local, older men. Soon a second guy came in and I observed the 3 rd guy standing by the door. He ordered a beer, but didn’t have valid ID- so I refused to serve him. The first guy started asking if the owner was there, or someone else who would tell me to serve them. I told him the cook was in the back, as I was getting a really bad vibe. They then walked outside and were standing at the passenger side of their vehicle talking. Immediately I went and locked the door. They then came back and were pulling on the door, and one went around the back. I ran in the back, grabbed the biggest knife I could find, and called the owner to come down (he was closer than the cops, a vet, and always armed). As soon as they saw his truck pulling in they jumped in their car and took off like a bat out of hell! To this day I believe had I not locked the door, I would have been robbed, attacked, or worse. Always listen to your instincts!!!
They would have killed your azz, assuming you don't go out your way to make up paranormal stories..lol. I believe you 100 percent..you were smart, not lucky..unlike so many in here. You have common sense. Still...be careful of the tooth fairy, even worse...Bigfoot and them skinwalker things..nj male 56 and yes normal...

@@SparkleLuna77 Unfortunately the evilness of people NEVER amazes me. Everyone has some evil inside of them. The truly horrific ones are those that want it to out in the world.

I sold a laptop on facebook a while back. The first guy that wanted it showed up and didn't look anything like his profile picture. He also showed up with two other guys. I didn't have a good feeling about it. I spoke to him through my doorbell camera and told him I got a better price and sold it to someone else. He tried to bargain at first and then got really angry and aggressive when he realized I wasn't going to open the door. I reminded him that I had all their faces on camera and had cameras all around the house. They left, and I never saw them again, thankfully. I sold the computer later, but I met the next person in a public coffee shop. Didn't give my address ever again. Maybe my gut was wrong. I'll never know for sure. I'd rather offend someone and be wrong than have something bad happen being polite

Thank you so much for following the life of the victims in this story and not banking on the shock value of the killers. Way too often we watch content that is all about these killers and their life and rarely mention the victim in any capacity which just makes them seem like a step in the killers story instead of a living, breathing, human being.

Mr Ballen is the best storyteller out here! He shows such compassion when telling about these horrible crimes! Plus he's very careful about the facts of the stories. Very smooth and fluid storytelling. Everything he talks about he does a phenomenal job with! I've been known to binge on his videos for hours!😆
Ditto! 🙂
What a horrifying way to die. Knowing you can't do anything to save your wife, trying everything, and then to be met with that at the end.. My god.
RIP Tom and Jackie. Rest easy.
I ALWAYS appreciate how he spends more time telling about the victims lives than the perpetrator... people are naturally curious about why and how people can be so evil that the victims are lost and I've noticed Mr. Ballen takes special care not to let that happen on his story as much as he can. THANK YOU!!
Yes it’s very nice and respectful.
Well spotted,, and you're indeed a smart mom too 😘
I think a lot of channels are starting to do that. I've noticed a lot of people have started putting the victim's name in the title and thumbnail rather than the perpetrator.
the murderers were 100% filled with jealousy and hatred. the guy looks like total s too compared to tom
Z
I feel sick, so...
Let us just appreciate how amazing Jackie and Tom were. Tom tried to comfort his wife even in the most dire situation, Jackie sounding like a wonderful mom. I hope they rest in peace and meet again in their next life
When he told her they'd be together after that, no matter what ...😥😪😫💔💔
Literally the only silver linings in this whole story were the husband and wife at least dying together (separately would have been more tragic IMHO), the other four being caught and convicted fairly soon afterwards (and never getting to enjoy the proceeds of their crime), and the evil couple’s baby (hopefully) getting to grow up in a new family that would love the child and raise it well without the neglect and abuse the child would likely have endured with a mother and father that would happily exploit their own child for personal gain, no good mother or father would ever exploit their child to earn and exploit the trust of others like that as that shows a complete lack of empathy and respect for their own child.
This was such a sad story. They just wanted to be grandparents and be with their family. People are so dang evil.

you just called yourself evil. Are you one?
This is one of those stories that hurts me the most, it is so devastating. This story and the story of that mom and her 2 daughters that went on that vacation after one of the daughters was assaulted by a family friend, and then they took a boat ride with a man that assaulted and k*lled all of them. I think about that family and this couple all the time, the compete depravity that people are capable of is just sick
Yeah I watched that story then this one on the same day a couple of years ago and they f-ed me up so much that they totally put me off true crime until just recently. Horrifying.
May I ask what story about the mom and two daughters you’re taking about?
@XxderpnuggetxX Oba Chandler was the pos that committed the crime. The victims were Joan Rogers and her 2 daughters. Be warned, it is a really sad story
Yes and the women who tricked the pregnant lady and cut out her baby. Fth some people are sick..
@@XxderpnuggetxX youtube deleted my original comment even though I made sure to be vague, but google Oba Chandler
Could you imagine that baby girl growing up and discovering that her parents used her as a tool in a murder?
@@plutoxll4757 Wtf does that mean? If you are referring to the baby girl you are sick.
@@plutoxll4757 bro wtf -
@@plutoxll4757 youre not a good guy for saying that. The baby did nothing
You're way worse than her just for saying that
That is so sad. Fortunately she's never going to meet the despicable people who did this horrific crime. Don't imagine she'd want to though. Even if she forgave her mother for being so hateful, who'd want a parent that loves money enough to kill for it... ya know?
Yeah, I can imagine. I had to wonder what my birth parents were like and why I was taken from them. I was told that it was too horrible to talk about. My imagination ran wild for almost forty years, until I finally found my birth family through DNA. I was SO relieved to find out that I simply came from two young teenagers in love. Their parents just wouldn't let them keep me. So they weren't in prison or anything like that.
This story, the one of the mom and the daughters with a similar fate, and the elderly couple buried alive by a woman that used to be a family friend are the stories that will never leave me. Unreal the level of evilness that humans are capable of.
Which videos are you talking about. Can you please link them
Buried alive is my worst nightmare....
That one scarred me too. Constantly reminding myself that people who are evil enough to carry out acts like that are few compared to "normal" people like you and I. Much love!
Very true! People can be and are the evilness of the Earth!
@@shounakghosh7904
The first one is about the mom and 2 daughters who went on a boat ride with a stranger, the other I think, is the one where a teenager and her boyfriend killed the elderly couple that treated her like a daughter. They’re on Mr Ballen’s channel.
"As of November 2021, Tom & Jackie Hawks' bodies have still not been found."
That made me tear up a bit, such innocent people excited to be with their family were murdered with no remorse.
May their souls rest in paradise and may their families find peace.
Amen 🙏✝️🙏
Whatever, there's no paradise. They were robbed of their paradise by these scumbags. This world is trash and this is why you should always conceal carry, especially before a meeting like this. If they were both strapped, it would have greatly improved their odds. Or, hell, even had a friend or family member go with them, also strapped.
... and may their murderers burn in hell.
@@ARedMotorcycle yes, everybody must be strapped..
It is so sad they have not been found. God bless this family. May Tom & Jackie rest in peace.
Never allow yourself being tricked by women or babies and NEVER ever ignore your sixth sense
What’s so evil is they were hesitant and the perpetrators knew EXACTLY how to manipulate the situation.
Also, never let yourself be outnumbered in isolation. Especially when any of them are your size or larger. His instincts were right.
Another thing I heard someone point out when I heard this story a while back, regarding selling a boat, or really anything of high value, if someone contacts you really quickly with a lot of interest, be weary especially if they “have the money”. There really aren’t many people just walking around out there with hundreds of thousands jumping on opportunities to blow that money. And any eagerness is a huge red flag.
Either way, never do a private sale unarmed, in isolation, without your own type of security and someone knowing exactly where you are and what to do if they don’t hear from you by a certain time.
Personally, if I buy something from someone, I’m armed, and my phone has gps active, wife paying attention to it, and I call her, and leave the call connected with the phone in my pocket.
I absolutely agree with you!!!
'It's like I have ESPN or something. My breasts can always tell when it's raining.' - If you know, you're a legend -
Word. That reminds me of another story where a pregnant woman was lured to someones house to buy baby clothes, and then the lady living there, pretending to be a young mother, ended up murdering her, and cutting out her baby OO
So yea, definitely should keep cautious in those situations, because that is an easy way to disarm people.
I know not everyone will agree with this, but it is cases like this that reinforce my opinion that some people deserve the death penalty and we do not need to waste time trying to rehabilitate them.
TOTALLY. Or let them have 15 appeals! After sentencing a bullet would have worked.
Or waste tax dollars on them. Firing squads for these kinds of people.
I think the same thing should be done to them
Financially, I agree. As far as punishment, I think spending decades in a 5×8 cell is worse than death. No socialization, no tv, no contact with others. Just exist in a tiny cell.
@@claypage1089 I'll give you that - sometimes a quick death would be not be a fitting punishment, particularly for those as sadistic as these animals.
So sad that this happened. “No matter what happens, we’ll be together” just hit me real hard

I have actually heard this story a couple of times, but I had no idea the totally awful and heartbreaking way they were actually murdered...you definitely have a way of showing compassion while still giving graphic details of how everything happens..you make them seem more like real people (which they are) instead of making them just another story...thank you for all that you do💜

This story is gutrenching, I can't imagine the fear Jackie and Tom felt as they were pulled into the ocean, knowing they were going to die. How people can be so cruel to one another is beyond me.
First of all you mistakenly think they are PEOPLE...these things that do this are EVIL incarnate
Unfortunately, that’s America in a nutshell these days.
@@OhHeyItsDanny You do realize that we are living in the safest time in human history right?

@@paulahunt3508 @The Finn Cute. But whether or not you think the rainbow unicorn is on your side or the leprechaun has made them do it: They did it. They rationalised it away, they didn't have the empathy to care, and that's just humanity. No cosmic opposed forces 'gave them free will' or 'set them up to do this'. They did the maths, they made the plans, they followed through.
And thinking that any cosmic force forges will is just the way a lot of people manage to do this: After all, if your own base desires are literally 'the devil' who is all powerful or whatnot, how can you resist? The devil made you do it.
Or even better: God wants you to.
So try and turn off that religious diarrhea, because it has caused people to do worse.
RIP Tom and Jackie, still makes me tear up hearing this story.
Me too. I saw only the title and knew exactly what case he was going to do. They did not deserve such a painful, heartbreaking end
Same here...every time I picture the image of how they died, it gives me a horrible, sick, twisting feeling in my stomach (which has happened like 20 times in the past 2 days)... It's such a feeling of grief and confusion (I honestly cannot imagine what it would be like to be one of their loved ones and learning what happened to them.. I hope they can find some kind of peace, somehow).
Same.!! Very sad 😔 RIP Tom and Jackie..!!
I watched a documentary about this cas3 a few years ago, and also was very negatively affected by it. The way they were killed is just so incredibly evil and cruel. This is one of those cases where I wish the killers would be executed the same way they killed that innocent couple.

What about the Notary Kathleen Harris? She should be sentenced too for at least year or more in prison. Being a notary, you are the servant, of the public service and requires upmost honesty and integrity. I am a notary myself. If my boss called me and tells me to notarize a document that he had signed; I would refuse. Does not matter if he is my boss or the president, notary documents must be signed in front of the notary after validating ID and identity.

Now it's just like I'm watching ID Discovery or Forensic Files... I'd rather go back to the Cave Diving stories even though they sucked too
Always remember-if someone can quickly confess to a wrong doing of any sort, especially like money laundering, you better believe they are trying to cover up something far worse.

So sad, and to think there are many people who are like that in this world. And a kid star...it look like the power rangers to me. Does anyone else remember that show? The power of greed is horrible and yes as many other comments said she should have been given the death penalty also. She was the mastermind behind the whole thing.

i was just thinking this too. (edit: typo)
I feel like even saying the name of the scumbags should be illegal or at least frowned upon. Some of these animals do what they do to become famous or infamous. Not mentioning them at all might deter them from acting. Make the victims the story instead
@@johnrogers6348 absolutely the way I feel.
As someone has mentioned before, the main takeaway for this story is, "trust your gut, and don't let someone manipulate you into doing otherwise." This is such an awful story. My heart goes out to the Hawks family.
Tom should have went with his first gut instinct. Your first gut instinct is always the right instinct to follow
Right. And if you’re planning a deal like this, hire an armed protection service to be with you until the funds have been safely deposited.
Amen🙏!
I don't think following your gut is advice for everyone. To my dismay, I have often thought the best of people and don't usually pick up on a person with bad intent. Maybe, I just want it to be the case, or whatever; regardless I am often too trusting and have lost money and been hurt by people when , maybe, I should have seen red flags or just didn't want to believe them.
"When you see someone through rose colored glasses, the red flags disappear."
-said by someone that got hurt
I'm just saying, people should know themselves and acknowledge their own faults before trusting their own gut. That's one reason to have good true friends.
The constitution allows us the right to protect ourselves from these sick individuals. Protect your 2A rights. If Tom or his wife had CCW they would likely be alive today. Truth!
The notary lady should also been punished with 20 years in prison! Seriously! If she would do her job ethically this might not have happened.
Not her first time it's a ring
The fact that she gave those killers an alibi several times while she must have sensed something was wrong is sickening.
This video taught me a valuable lesson. When you get that bad feeling, don't go back on it!!!
Omg yes!
Amen to that!!!
You nailed it Vince Brown... There is a reason why we have a gut feeling or intuition, it's there to protect us from our civility. We are so worried we are going to offend someone that we wind up putting ourselves in potentially dangerous situations, which is evident from this video. What a really devastating sad ending to what appeared to be have been a storybook marriage and life.
always trust your intuition!!!!
Gut instinct is total alarm this poor couple so disgusting humans doing this to each other over greed. Plea deals should never be awarded to killers. Just remove any life sentences and a life for a life to all of them.
“Man’s inhumanity to man” has never been more evident than in this case. This is so much more disturbing than so-called “horror” stories, in my opinion. Thank you, John, for telling us this story. May God have mercy on us all!

Very sad indeed.
After Skylar Killed Tom And Jackie, He Had A Sex Change In Prison And Attempted To Cut Off His Own Penis
On March 13, 2008, Deleon partially severed her penis with a razor blade while being held in jail. After receiving medical attention, she was returned to jail the following day. In an interview with ABC's 20/20, Deleon indicated that she attempted to cut off her penis because she, assigned male at birth, wanted to be a woman. Defense lawyers claimed that Deleon's need for money to finance sex reassignment surgery was the motivation for the Hawks' murders. In 2019, Deleon’s gender was legally changed to female and Deleon’s name is now Skylar Preciosa Deleon.
How is that possible? If they never moved the boat or got rid of the anchor, where would they go?
Unfortunately the ocean is a huge place & after all this time there would be nothing left to find 😢
@@kelleyk28they did move the boat & got rid of the anchor - right out in the middle of the ocean. How could they possibly find them so deep in the middle of nowhere. What I don’t get is why these criminals docked the boat back in the same place & hung around to get caught?! It’s just plain stupidity. I’m glad they did though or the case may never have been solved. I hope they feel more fear & pain than Tom & Jackie did when it comes time for their death sentences to be carried out‼️
How sad for their sons to lose their parents in such a way.
It is very sad. R.I.P. Tom and Jackie.
What a sad and scary story. Resi in peace Tom and Jackie.
This story gave me such anxiety. I can't imagine the fear and trauma in their heads before they hit the water, poor souls. My heart goes out to their families. RIP 💙
I was about to write that, anxiety went through the roof.. especially the anchor part.. Skyler is pure evil and a sick person..
me too, wish i hadn't listened to it... I've never seen one of these channels that discusses horrid crimes... hope u don't make a habit of it.
Hopefully their rapid descent caused them to lose consciousness. Such a horrible way to go.
@@OldManPaxusYT "Strange, Dark & Mysterious" --- What were you expecting? Hello Kitty?
@@OldManPaxusYT you need to leave!..
What an absolutely terrifying ending to a human life.
especially after a lifetime of working hard, planning, doing things the right way.
Yes this was very very disturbing. I normally can handle it pretty well. This ones just horrific
This is eeriely similar to another story here, but in that video the boat owner is a serial killer and he invited 3 members of a family for a ride, then he hogtied them and throw them to the sea to die a horrible death.
drowning takes about 1-3 mins, burned alive can take awhile
@@kitterglitter7777 same! Idk why this story, out of all I have witnessed in life, kills me. It's just horrific 😣🌹
I always remember a phrase from The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
"The fear of offending can be stronger than the fear of pain."
I have always remembered that phrase when I'm in uncomfortable situations. Sometimes follow your gut and just say 'No'. Screw social norms.
That’s an awesome quote. I will remember that also.
I remember watching that movie and thinking how dangerously true that statement was and thinking of the many times I have been foolishly guilty of this myself!
Profoundly accurate.... Thanks for sharing.
I just screenshotted that quote as a reminder. Thank you.
thank you. saw movie but did not stick to me. It has cost me thousands to be mr. let me help, i trust you, you need it more than i do type of guy. perhaps i will not change but at least will think twice now.
Absolutely harrowing. Putting a warning was a good idea.
You are an amazing narrator. Subscribed.
This story has haunted me for years. The victims spent their last minutes telling each other how much they loved each other. Even as they were being pulled overboard by the anchor.
I’ve watched many of Mr Ballens videos and I know that I will never forget this story. It deeply saddens me knowing that Tom and Jackie’s last moments were knowing that they were going to die and not be able to see their children ever again and never be able to meet their grand baby. And the one thing that truly disturbs me is how they died. That sweet innocent couple died in one of the most horrific ways. The murderer didn’t even take their lives before throwing them into the water. He just watched them drown while being fully conscious 😞 that man is evil and I’m glad he got a life sentence and is going to die. And he is going to die being fully aware that his life will end. Tom and Jackie have got justice but it will never bring them back and that is the most crushing thing.
That's a brutal way to go
Psychopaths are often smart at plotting but stupid at measuring the intellect of others or impact on their own lives.
@@freecountry3544 he's clearly not intellectual when he exposed him self regarding info on the money. Would have gotten away with it if he and his accomplices just kept their mouth shut.
@@tommychoppa7564
In his little rotted, psycho brain, he was trying to deflect blame FROM him. "Duh, I was only trying to make some dirty money clean, and I wuz a "bad" boi (not really), but I didn't kill nobody!" And in his twisted world, the police would have been like, "understandable, have a great day, sir. Absolutely nothing to see here, and we never have to talk about this never ever again. Here's some clean money for the road." In these socio/psychopath's logic, that would have worked if reality ran by that. In their head they make all the sense and logic, and everyone better recognize and give in, because how can you not? What are you stupid? Un-logical? Did you hear what they said? They didn't do anything wrong.
But reality doesn't work like that. Which is one MAJOR weakness we should 100% exploit in all dark triads. They ALL act like this.
That couple did not need this pain. Rest In Peace Tom and Jackie.
Hey. But why did he say that he was getting so much money for killing them? They weren't rich, so why would someone give so much money to kill them?
Yea
That was just a story Skylar made up to get Alonzo to go along with things. The only money he was getting was from the stolen boat and access to Tom and Jackie’s possessions after they were murdered. A real hired assassin wouldn’t involve accomplices, and likely wouldn’t torture the victims beforehand either.
@@DarkeningSkies1 Thank you. But if he had really promised him a mil, why didn't the other guy kill him for breaking the deal? I guess the million was also a lie by Alonzo to the cops
I remember this story ... Very sad 💔😩
I just can't imagine how his son felt. All of this because they wanted to be closer to him and his children.. This one hits really hard. Tom, you're a real Legend. Rest in peace
why only tom tho?
@@Satsujiki they both wanted to move
If that where my mother and father that man better repent everyday in prison because I’d come for him as soon as he’s released. I hope these boys are capable of forgiveness over retaliation.
And Jackie
I was thinking the same thing 💔
This is one of the saddest things I have ever heard.
When the killer's wife shows up with their baby to break the tension barrier was such a low blow. Hit me right in the feels 💔🤦. I can only imagine Jackie's excitement upon seeing the baby and feel comforted based on their expected grandchild.
She is pure evil. The child star is not the true evil one.
It makes you wonder what sort of life that baby might have had with his mother if the parents were not caught and convicted so soon afterwards. A mother that sees her own child as little more than a prop to be used and exploited to scam others likely would have meant a life of childhood abuse and neglect for that baby. Hopefully that child has grown up with a far more loving family (fingers crossed as such is by no means guaranteed). I am very grateful their greed did them in and that they are very unlikely to ever walk this Earth free ever again, though I would have much rather the other couple had survived and had the opportunity to help raise their grandbaby. There is far too much evil in this world.
I was really hoping she wasn't involved. At least that child is far away from those psychopaths.
ye they were hawked, knew exactly what they were doing to a t. that cud have been my relations it just sickens my heart
My heart breaks for Jackie, Tom and their loved ones. It takes a truly sick mind to not just come up with such an evil plan, but to carry it out and stand by watching while they fought and begged for their lives.
Rest in Peace Tom and Jackie. Two brave, generous precious souls. May you be together for the rest of eternity.
Did they ever find Tom and Jackie Hawks this body yet
@@bobbydecoff1219 Have you finished the video? It literally says in the end that their bodies have no been found as off November 2021, but currently, I wouldn't know and I'm too lazy to find out
@@silentkiler678 I haven't done any research on this case. But I'm assuming that he dumped there bodies somewhere in the ocean.
they will be.
Must suck to be you!!!!
Rest in peace Tom and Jackie, this is such a heartbreaking story. All they wanted was to live with their family and be grandparents 💔
Random but as someone who is pretty much deaf I'm so grateful for how clearly Mr.Ballen speaks and how articulate he is so the CC is almost always 100% accurate 👌💯
I agree, I greatly appreciate the Closed Captioning on almost EVERY channel too!! Much love and many Blessings to You and Your Family!!!!
I use cc exclusively and appreciate it very much
SAME HERE!!!
You are so pretty Sunna.. just saying.
I absolutely love his CC! It’s something overlooked by so many creators.
"Of the hundreds of stories I've covered" It's insane that Mr.Ballen has only been doing RUclips for a year. When I first started watching his channel I was sure he had like 3-5 years under his belt due to how much content he had. Man he definitely put in some work, very impressive.
Yeah he's top tier.
While I’m happy he’s had so much success, I find the fact he’s been able to become so successful disturbing. Not him, but the fact the world is so fucked up that he will never run out of content.
A pro from the start...
@@QixTheDS bingo - the world is a messed up place. A lot of the ugly has been hidden for a long time but now not so much
Yep I don't think he does anything half way he always gives his best.Thank you Mr.Ballen for keeping us entertained.
Tom’s kids must be heartbroken. Never be able to give his dad and stepmom a proper burial. Now these people are real monsters and deserve everything they get.
Well, I mean, they were given the death sentence.
This is making me rethink to stop selling and buying on FB marketplace .
I always meet up at my local police station when buying/selling on fb marketplace!
Thankfully i’ve never picked up something that i HAD to go to someones home or vice versa (like furniture)
Tons of people have died on dating apps too one guy was targeting from a Christian one ..
@@mjg-98 Good Idea! My mom worked with a guy and he told her how he was so excited that he was picking up his new puppy after work that day....even as he left work that day he had a huge smile on his face saying " this is the LAST day I will come home to an empty home after work!!!" something along those lines He was a young guy, I believe in his early 20's.....needless to say, the guy(s) with the " puppy" met up with him........I don't know all of the small details like if they showed up with an actual puppy or not but bottom line is they KNEW he had cash on him to purchase a puppy...so they not only robbed him but killed him as well : ( He was so excited for that puppy :( Little did he know :( They had a "celebration of life" get together for him and I went with my mom....felt so sooooo bad for the guy and his family : ( I wish he had thought like you and met up the police station.....great advice and I will def be using it if I ever have to meet up with anyone for a sale etc..
Let's not exaggerate. Selling a chair is not like selling a yacht.
As my wife is also my best friend, this story is heartbreaking and it hits home....i cant even begin to imagine how it must have felt. The horror they went through and Tom comforting his wife, knowing it is their last moments alive...shocking. This goes to show, again, that reality is often so much more gruesome then fiction.
☝️now that's a good husband right there!
My wife’s a fat cow, but she feeds me.
@@christopherwharton6022 Pathetic. Get a divorce then
@@christopherwharton6022 you don't deserve her
@@christopherwharton6022 if you really loved her you’d work out with her and help her get healthy, not call her names on social media.
When mr.ballen said Tom was stroking Jackie’s hand and told her at least we’ll be together I cried :( such an awful death I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. They just wanted to be with their family.
Same. I'm crying again just reading your comment. I'm sure it is a thought that their children have had too. Amazing how the smallest comfort in the midst of such horror can keep us going. I hope they were able to somehow hold onto each other til the end.
So heartbreaking 🥺 they were seriously just getting to the best part of their lives, and to never get to meet their 1st grandchild!
Beyond cruel, this story is hard to hear as someone who never met the couple. For their loved ones, knowing their final moments must be torture. The way Mr Ballen immediately followed the tragic story with his jokey shtick about the 'Like' button was pretty crass.
@@glamdolly30 I think he means it to transition out of that heavy space but it doesnt always work. I like it at the beginning though. And I'm really glad he got rid if the hidden clue in the videos. I think he meant it to lighten things up where he could but it never worked for me.
@@glamdolly30 He always does it after the most graphic or painful stories. It's done to break it up and allow the viewer a bit of respite. It's like he's offering you ginger to cleanse your palate.
Never, ever distrust your gut. It knows on a deeper level when something's wrong. Such a shame. Such a nice couple Tom and Jackie were. Terrible story, but I love Mr Ballen' s storytelling!!
Why you should always have your concealed carry pistol on you for any situation. Sometimes you get lost in the woods and need a compass.
So true! That guys first instinct was aw hell naw and he was right.
Words to live by...
absolutely anytime I have doubted my gut I have always regretted it
The Gift of Fear. It’s a thing. Instinctual.
THIS is one of the saddest stories
This made my heart shatter in a million pieces. My heart breaks for Tom and Jackie and for their family.
It's a very disturbing world.
It is Terrible...And how they Used the Baby to calm them down ... Sick...and get them on the ship...as soon as the GF left with the Baby Tom must have had a sense but. You know this type of Evil happens to people everyday. Its heart breaking for there sons and I would not wish that Shit on my worst enemy ( not that i have any ....)I felt the same way. after they got the Chain.... i skipped ahead!
@@davidstrangeDMC I literally started crying when he mentioned the anchor and how Tom held Jackie’s hand. God it brings me to tears typing it. I can’t imagine
@@djrychlak4443 it really is 😢
"We will be together" I started crying.
“I know the defendant could care less about my family, how we feel, how this horrific crime has affected us,” said the 31-year-old. “I urge the defendant’s family to give up the children for adoption. The best possible future these children can ever have growing up is not knowing who their biological parents were, what they did, and how the children themselves were used as decoys [in the plot] to murder my parents for financial gain.”
Ryan Hawkes during the trial about the Deleons’ children
Were the kids put up for adoption?
@@TheShumoby I did a little research and they are being raised by Skylar's mother.
@@Palafertiil seriously. And that woman did such a good job brining up her own son.
So they could care less? *couldn't
Sad. They should have been given up for adoption. Eradicate those people from their lives.
Every once in a while this story pops in my head and terrifies the shit outta me... I swear Hell is on Earth sometimes... This kind of depravity is just unimaginable to me... RIP Tom & Jackie

There's no such thing.
@@lavenderflowers1075 I get not being religious, I’m not religious either. But there’s no need to be disrespectful towards the dead or someone wishing the dead well.
@@boyyoyoing wishing the dead well makes absolutely no sense. They are dead.
When someone voluntarily confesses to wrongdoing, it’s often an attempt to cover something even worse. When Skylar confessed to laundering drug money- which could get you locked up for years- you could at that point be fairly confident he’d done something far worse.
I assumed setting the couple up to get the drug dealer's money back for a cut/ or getting them killed as decoys if the person he stole from caught them . but the simplest answer is usually truth . They should have used a broker since buying a boat is akin to buying a house- you have to show it or you cant expect to sell it, but i would never agree to meet strangers in a private setting where anything foul could happen- and be covered up- and did. What rotten luck they had.
I thought the same.
Yeah but its a MrBallen story- so we expected plot twists. "They were thrown overboard." Is pretty cut and dried. Still horrfic and grisly without the details. I wouldn't trust ANYONE who showed up with that kind of cash anyway- only drug dealers would deal in cash at those amounts. Of course they could easily steal it back. No BABY is gonna set me at ease in those circumstances. Especially when she backed out.
indeed.
@@douganderson7002 It’s an aspect of human nature that detectives attempt to leverage all the time. When they’re interviewing someone they believe may be guilty of a crime, they suggest something lesser to see if the suspect will confess to that. It’s the same principle if the suspect himself initiates the lesser-crime admission. Of course it doesn’t mean that the person is indeed trying to cover for something worse; his confession could be absent any guile or subterfuge. But- and this is hearsay- criminals lie.
Tom and Jackie were the epitome of good, loving people, while the Deleons are the epitome of the worst.
Such a heartbreaking story, I hope the Hawks family can find some sort of peace--I hope Tom and Jackie can be found someday.
You know, I was thinking the same thing, that perhaps the Navy in San Diego might be able to search for the couple...but I don't know if that would be a comfort to their children ...
As sad as it is to admit, by this point it will never happen. That depth for this long, the most that might be found is the anchor, the chain, and the handcuffs.
I'm from Melbourne, Australia and just came across your channel and love it! I'm not sure if you know about the Mr Cruel case in Melbourne back in 80's & 90's but it would be a true crime story I think you'd find interesting to look into. It still gives chills to Melbournians now. I lived through it and not only did it change the way parents parented, but it has gone into further generations and the fear that we all felt has been passed to our own kids.
Thanks again for a great channel!
The whole situation was bad enough, but the fact they implicated their own baby in a murder plot just for money truly makes this a very disturbing case.
Rest in eternal peace, together forever, Tom and Jackie. Your lives mattered, and you are remembered always.
They are most likely NOT together. Their bodies would have fell apart an scattered by the currents. It would have only taken a few days
@@AztecWarrior69_69 that was unnecessary
