Nikolas Cruz's racist social postings show defense claims of 'peace' is BS, psychiatrist says
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 апр 2024
- Dr. Charles L. Scott, a forensic psychiatrist who analyzed Nikolas Cruz for prosecutors in the Parkland shooting trial, testified that Cruz's social media postings containing racist and vile comments towards women, children and Black people are how he truly views the world. Dr. Scott said this is indicative of antisocial personality disorder and that people who have that disorder, like Cruz, have no remorse for committing violence.

The way he so calmly speaks in detail about how he killed those people....disturbing beyond comprehension. This was the KEY witness right here. I bet the jury has their minds set now
I agree. If the jury was unsure before, I think this witness has secured Cruz's fate. Let's hope so.
@@lucy2014 when the defense spoke about the fas and his sister came in and testified, I was torn between death penalty/life, believing he did suffer from a variety of mental handicaps that impaired him, but once Dr.Scott came in and spoke, after spending hours interviewing him, I now realize he really is just a sociopath who knows exactly what he is doing. His carefree, emotionless responses and the content of them is sickening, he carefully and intelligently planned everything out, and stuck to his game plan. Some people are just a danger to society. He is certainly one of them
@@kristenbarker29 exactly
@@lucy2014 Mark my words. This kid's disturbed. He'll never be fried.
indeed. this was scathing and thorough
He enjoyed killing people and wanted/was going to kill more. Now he's staring at the families because he enjoys their pain. Disgusting
Yes. Exactly!
this should have ended already, they have video proof from his phone. dead on evidence and he is still in court. Disgusting!! pray for the victim
Exactly🥺
I hate how the Pos keeps looking at the families for their reactions. 😡
Yes I noticed he keeps looking in their direction he's lucky I'm not sitting right behind him holding his head looking forward.
Especially since he repeatedly stated that he couldn’t wait to see their reactions.
He seems to think he’s some sort of celebrity. Too st*pid to realise *no one* looks up to him in any way
I noticed that also. This would be easier said than done, but acting like he doesn't exist would be the most effective way to deal with him. He is all about the attention. That is exactly why he didn't commit suicide, like most school shooters. Nik wanted to become "a famous school shooter" and live to witness it. After the verdict is read he will end up in prison or on death row...over time he will become irrelevant and when that happens I feel for the staff at the prison. He will make sure to at least attempt to do something crazy so he ends up back in the spotlight
Who are the POS?
Ridiculous how long this trial has lasted. Pure torture for the families.
Yeah I don’t get it either it’s ridiculous
I agree it’s insane!
Go read about the case of Giuseppe Zangara. Short and swift. That is the type of justice system this country needs to go back to.
The reason why is because it takes forever to punish someone for the death penalty than it does to go through a normal trial there’s a bunch of other things the jury has to go through before coming to a conclusion. They wanted him to get a plea deal but none of the victims families wanted him to have one which is good but a trial includes a lot of gruesome details that otherwise would’ve been omitted
I agree
Give this case to the jury already and stop abusing the victims
This is beyond what needs to be said. The guy is getting off on every bit of it at the family's expense for some reason ....this court seems to think this is proper?
There's a process, lady. Let it play out.
Impatient much? There’s a legal process that has to take place. Otherwise he can get off due to a technicality. Especially in death sentence scenario.
I think it would have been better for the families if it ended with him going to prison for life. Why kill another human?
@@Anonymous-lq2bs some people are so impatient
The sad part is …he’ll still get the outcome of “Life without the possibility of parole “ even though he Took 17 of them and injured 20 more…SICK😡
I surely hope not.. he needs to be put down
@Jill Skelington I honestly feel like you’re absolutely right…the justice system is a joke
Killed 17, injured 17 and 2 committed suicide post massacre, which he should be charged with
Would it not be better to give him life without parole, this way he could be a boy toy for all the other criminals,hence suffer for the rest of his life he can suffer the way s fla families did for the rest of his life!
Let’s just hope the jury understands anything less than death penalty is very unjust!! Period
This doctor is very reasoned and effective.
Yes. I like the way the Dr. speaks & come's across.
He's just laying it all out flat.
absolutely no conscious or feelings he remembers every detail he enjoys it
Of course he remember what he did!but dont mane his head is normal like tha people here
Conscience.
I'm tired of everyone focusing on all the negative aspects of this kid's life. They are too concerned about whether he drew swastikas and whatnot, I've never heard about him drawing peace signs everywhere. The kids literally spoke out against racial violence. He spoke out against drug use. But everyone wants to talk about is all the murders he did. This should have ended in a mistrial a long time ago.

how the hell were all these posts of killing people on RUclips and not flagged to authorities? yet they take someone's channel; away from them for misinterpreting what they actually meant? crazy.
I heard that someone actually did contact the FBI about one of his RUclips comments a few months before the crime
@@Jackass_Gamer shows how usefull google AI really are (not)
He was being monitored by the FBI before the shooting. Idk why nothing was done though.
It was pretty normal at that time to read such comments on youtube.
@@r.h.o. probably too busy going after some pot smokers
I cannot believe we are wasting tax payers money for weeks discussing if this life is worth saving or not. It should’ve been 3 days for pro and 3 for con. This is ridiculous
@Iane Howe This is a murder and pure annihilatio, NOT trying to decide whether you should date this person or that person! If it was someone you knew you would want them to thoroughly provide all evidence and mitigation possible knowing it takes a lot of convincing and exposure of the true intent and this kid cause even if he spends life in prison rather than getting put to death! I’ve been through a murder trial and my husband/parents were the main witnesses and the smoking gun in a mother & newborn trial
@@jadedtoday1019 this is only the penalty phase. Literally just arguing if he should be executed or not. This trial has cost at least $1mil+ just in taxpayer money. Absolutely insane.
Lawyers are making money 💰 they want the case to drag on and on .... this case is gold dust for Lawyers. The tax payer is paying..
.
so if it was your job to convince 12 people he should die your approach would be speed through all evidence and testimony in 3 days to save money. think about how dumb that sounds
Wasting tax payer money? Do you have any idea of that amount of money that goes into trials for actually insane things that aren't even malicious/violent? What about the amount of money that goes into keeping people imprisoned for nonviolent crimes. This entire case is massive and very worthy of having due diligence on BOTH legal teams while they decide on if we have the intrinsic right to take this human life for his immoral acts- something many states and countries have completely outlawed.
Not only that, but this case is invaluable to the information we have on gun violence and mass murderers. The cognitive and mental portfolio of a school shooter, the shortcomings of security systems, the failures of prevention/threat detection by authorities, etc...
This trial is not a waste of money. It is money well spent. I could care less about Cruz living or dying, but I do care about the integrity of our legal system and treating executions as a VERY serious topic that supersedes the price of long trial.
He perked up when the Dr mentioned the Vegas shooting and immediately looked at the victims area. What a vile human
Cruz's media comments demonstrate a keen awareness of past shootings and shooters, and also an identification with and desire to emulate these persons. For those who say the death penalty isn't needed and that life in prison is enough, they should be reminded that even now it is not far fetched to imagine someone else perhaps contemplating becoming the "next school shooter". What message would it send to that yet unseen potential killer if we let Cruz off relatively easy by giving him life? Society needs to take a stand.
I agree🌸
Unfortunately the death penalty isn't a deterrent.
@@ukmedicfrcs How do you know this?
these people tend not to value the potential future consequences. they crave power over people and they disregard any negative consequence until after the fact. situations that cause such a disturbed mental state need to be prevented, rather than only threatening severe punishment.
but i do agree, we do need to figure out ways to prevent these horrific tragedies from happening. perhaps the death penalty could deter some, but i don’t think it’s an effective enough strategy.
Didn't people report such social media postings?
Yes, the RUclipsr under whose videos NC posted he wanted to be a professional school shooter reported to the FBI, they dropped the ball, alas.
They most likely didn't think it was a threat.
I have my own RUclips and I am a moderator for several others, believe me we report thing to RUclips that are this bad and worse, and in most cases nothing is done. The best we are offered is that we can remove the comments are selfs, but they are never prosecuted. In one gaming channel I monitor, we have had threats to actual people’s lives and RUclips does nothing.
@@skipjack6974 I follow a guy who does music reaction videos and he gets shut down all the time for far less than this!!! RUclips needs to re-evaluate their priorities!
@@skipjack6974 I am great, RUclips needs yo be accountable for what they allow in their channels. I see his accounts that are making large sums of money by lying and harassing people. That should not be allowed.
these comments he made are absolutely nauseating. how can someone be so hateful?
Its called being a complete wanker
That’s the thing. He isn’t BEING hateful. That implies passion. He’s devoid of emotion. That’s what the psychiatrist is telling everyone. He’s aware of what’s happening but he doesn’t care. He isn’t moved emotionally.
@@LetThereBeRaineTV he's still evil.... And if he's completely void of emotion, he sure seems to be enjoying the pain of the victims families like he said he would... Constantly gazing over at the families to see their reactions. Enjoyment is emotional and he seems to thoroughly enjoy causing pain...
@@Face_Reality I didn’t say being void of emotion was a good thing. And I can definitely agree he seems to be displaying emotion in that way. But where it’s general for other people, that’s what he’s lacking. Otherwise he wouldn’t have been able to go through with this and he wouldn’t be able to live with himself now. The point is that he’s not a normal person.
@@Face_Reality I agree with you🤨🤨
I wanna see them investigate his statements about shooting people in a “bad” neighborhood.
Why didn’t RUclips ……. Or anybody not report all these comments ??????? 😱😱😱
The FBI was notified of him, the sheriff was notified, the school was notified, and they did NOTHING.
Multiple did. Some people in authority positions failed the victims
Because society is only concerned with pronouns
He’s 23 and looks like an uncle I wouldn’t take my kids around
I think his defense team believed the oversized glasses and the sweaters your uncle and dad wear at a holiday gathering would somehow help him. No....he still looks like a creepy little freak

Don’t take your pets either
@@kristenbarker29 Yeh...who wears sweaters like that in the middle of summer in S. Florida??
This Dr is the game changer...leaves no doubt whatsoever...Defense can't even object without looking even worse than they already do...They don't want the jury to see or hear certain evidence because it can cause them to see Defendent in a unsatisfactory light?..Look at your client and remember him so if there is ever another request for your services- you should just pass...Jury should see every single thing about this horrific mass murder.Are you hoping they are forgetting any of the things they have heard and seen already?.They aren't.They have enough and they will return a verdict of Death Penalty in this case.
To bad for he it’s a life sentence!
@@danieltown2471 to bad for he? You mean too bad for everyone else who had to deal with it. Sure life sentence is best. Let him suffer everyday a slow torturous death. But your comment back at this other guy is unnecessary. I remember my first beer 😂
And this is why they should bring back Firing squads.
Firing squads are with guillotine the most 'humane' ways of execution. Gas, chair and injection are torture

@@beckydoesit9331 I don’t really care what he drew on his shoe or if he picked his nose. His goal in life was to kill people. He killed 17 innocent people and still wants to kill more. He should never be out in society again. If he is to stay in prison at least make it a punishment. It should be unbearable pain like the victim’s families are going through. None of this laying back reading books and watching tv. As years ago have him do some hard physical labor everyday. Then maybe he will eventually regret what he has done.

@@beachsidemath3958 It goes by state
🤡
disappointing how many people see this trial as a waste of time!!! What would our legal system be if we just decided people were guilty and executed them?? Obviously he is guilty and a terrible person but every person in the United States has a constitutional right to a fair trial and jury of their peers. To violate those rights only gives defense grounds for mistrial, in which case even if the jury just immediately handed over the death sentence they would be able to get it thrown out. Logic over emotion in court, no matter how heinous the crime we have to treat everyone the same or the system falls apart. Obviously this is not the case here, but if we adopted that type of thinking and applied it to anyone accused of a heinous crime, innocent people would be executed without due process. I’m not defending him in any way shape or form but people the legal process is important for a reason, to bypass it whenever we feel this enraged is to set a horrible precedent. Plus, in deciding his penalty, painful as it may be it is critical to show the jury that he was fully aware of his actions, evidence of premeditation, proof that he would be a continued threat to society were he to become eligible for parole or something, that he does not have remorse, etc all these things are so important!! Those of you who just want him to die and do not want the families to suffer through this need to understand that bypassing the proper legal routes would only result in a mistrial in which case the victims would have to go through all this AGAIN-all of this would have been for nothing. Is that what you want?
💯 Very well said. Thank you for speaking up and making this point 👏
My deepest condolences to the families!
Exactly! Thank you!
We didn't decide he was guilty, he did.
This means EVERY single murderer can trot out how rough their lives were in order to escape true justice.
God failed on this one as did our society. Let's get rid of this bad seed and stop using resources that could be used to help kids we still try to save.
HE PLEADED GUILTY. This trial was effectively the penalty phase with the assertion that he was nuts, which would lead to him going to an institution for the criminally nuts. So choices were mental institution, prison or death. The whole business was poorly forensically managed, very American ( let's make it bigger and better) without much thought for the poor families who had already suffered so much tragedy. Everything was repeated ad nauseum. Banal cross examination - just so pedestrian and judge with little control over her courtroom as she thinks about re election.
Best expert witness ever.
His mother should have called the police when he hit her.
very true !! but many families dont report family ! then fatality hits !!!
I think she was scared of him
I think that she was dead scared of him.
@@lesleypetersen805 Rightfully so. An older single mom raising an angry, violent teenage boy
Yet she bought him his first gun...
I know it’s hard to go through a trial and hear victim’s testimonies especially for the families of the victims but when there isn’t a trial and instead a plea deal is taken like in the Skylar neese case (which Rachel is up for parole next year) it allows the killer to get away with everything they said or did and it takes away the shame they feel so I’m glad we get to know everything
Why did they put AK-17 in such a demented, horrible, horrific, destructive, despicable, monstrous idiot!!!
Tell me you don't know what you're talking about, without telling me you don't know what you're talking about

How did he manage to post that stuff in you tube comments? I had a comment auto blocked because my sentence contained the word id iot (broken up otherwise this comment will be auto blocked deleted) yet he got away with talking about k! lling children and others?
FBI had tips about him, prior to his massacre
Just because it's blocked or stricken from a thread doesn't mean that it's deleted. Anything posted on the internet leaves a traceable footprint forever. All it takes is a l'il ol' subpoena and a clever Forensic Computer Analyst to bring it all back!
Wow. Based on his posts alone, he should have been institutionalized. However, he’s too manipulative to stay in a place like that for long.
Too manipulative to stay in a place like what? If you're in a mental health intitution you can't just manipulate your way out. They're trained to notice things like that which would only result in more diagnosises and a longer stay.
Glowies use these tools as useful idiots
You realize life in a mental facility is possible right, if your sentenced to life in a mental facility, there is no getting out, even if your managed to be “cured” a not guilty by insanity sentence would automatically give you life in a mental facility but he is not eligible because he is not insane, he knew what he was doing therefore he does not qualify, he didn’t just pick up a gun one day kill people and then go about his business he planned, knew the consequences and attempted to go on the run, he may be a psychopath but he’s not insane
Bezos would’ve said he’s allowed to have free speech, and invited him to twitter. The danger to humanity part doesn’t trumpf free speech.

Idk how he could talk like this,I suffer from mental illness and I think of harming myself over hurting anyone at all :(. I immediately feel horrible when thinking of hurting anyone at all
What about the liability of all the authorities that were called and involved, to say it went on a long time is even more of an indictment of the many failures in not investigating and intervening!
I imagine so many users read this guys psychotic youtube comments and someone must have flagged them/ reported the comments. So what does youtube do from there once someone hits the report button? YOutube clearly didn't delete anything inappropriate if they have history of these now for the trial. Tiktok gives members strikes to follow the community guidelines then sends users who violate the guidelines or who have been flagged to be reviewed by a staff member """"apparently""" .... these multibillion dollar companies can afford a community security team to keep track of accounts that are repeatedly using words like kill/shoot/murder/rape/ bomb/ pedophelia comments and then from there pass on their report to authortiies to look into these psycho people.

@@beckydoesit9331 that’s kind of what I’m trying to say. They are completely ignoring the severe impairments he had evidenced as a child, he clearly suffered brain developmental issues with his mother using every substance during her pregnancy. Even his head and facial features are abnormal. His mother lovely as she was did not take the provided opportunities given to her to get professional support and their was plenty evidence to that.
There were dozens and dozens of red flags and calls for help to professional agencies INCLUDING the FBI and police, even from the neighbour who looked after him following his mothers death. His Facebook and other “writing’s” were KNOWN about for a long time and NO services intervened.
The boy and all the victims were FAILED by the system. Demonising him, completely apportioning blame to him, sending him to death, sadly means there are NO lessons learnt. I’m a forensic mental health practitioner and the prosecution can find psychiatrists to say whatever suits them, but it changes NONE of those facts. For the families who lost and endures pain this is a very poor outcome and I hope they realise it. They won’t feel any better if he gets the death penalty or whatever he gets, it’s not healing, and I truly hope they are smart enough to look at the bigger picture. I’m sure one of the reasons these failures are not coming up is that he doesn’t have the best defence lawyers but more importantly the state will DO EVERYTHING they can to stop the spotlight being out on this issues as the would have to pay multi millions in compensation. More than that, the professionals in law enforcement who failed to act would be sacked, most definitely instantly had this happened in the UK. This is even more embarrassing because of the FBI knowing and despite the massive risks and how common these school shootings are, their profiling abilities and all their resources, they still failed to act and investigate. The neighbour told the police everything and even said how terrified she was of the fact that he buried guns in her garden, they said it’s fine, it’s quite ok for him to do that. I’m not even going to touch on the acceptable gun culture where every man and his dog has multiple weapons and assault rifles. I’m afraid until these issues are addressed these incidents will happen over and over and more often. There is an additional generation of young people further marginalised with mental health issues following Covid.
The powers at be right up to special agencies and government simply have to be realistic and “take it on the chin” when these things happen if they want to continue to deal with the issues at hand as they are. Just accept that ever more frequently this will happen and just accept that if you like the weapons more, it’s a price worth paying. This happens NO where else in the world on this scale, very isolated incidents.
And this boy is NOT even your run of the mill psychopath. OTHER THAN NICOLAS CRUZ PUBLISHING WHAT HE WAS PLANNING ON BILLBOARDS OR THE NEWSPAPER he could NOT have been more transparent. And it wasn’t spur of the moment, by their own admission it was months in planning and build up. It would have taken no time to intervene and prevent this had they picked him up, placed him in psychiatric review, come up with a plan of action and support and resources. It’s not as though he was hiding and being severely autistic without theory of mind or the empathy that most people have, it’s so easy to pick up in psychiatric evaluations.
It’s shameful neglect and the longer the broader public sign up to this lazy rhetoric the less the chance of ever remotely reducing the risk.
But if it makes every feel better demonising a boy with a very poor start in life, brain injuries in uterus, significant developmental delay, intellectual delays, autism and severe social integration difficulties as a result of his condition ( not because he’s the devil) and put him in prison and sentence him to death or whatever makes people feel better, it doesn’t seem like a court victory or a win to me.
@@beckydoesit9331 that’s what he’s on trial for multiple murders. No good character references can change the facts. He still writes he wants to kill again.
His social media posts show me that he wanted to make people as miserable as he was by killing them and destroying the lives of the victims and the victims’ families. That’s why he said he enjoyed seeing others suffer. “Misery loves company” at its finest.

He really doesn’t deserve to live at all but I can’t imagine this poor jury having to decide if he gets the death penalty, how will they cope with their decisions, do they get any psychological help afterwards?? 😢
WOW this is tough!!
The jury has to be “death ready “ or you can not be a juror. It’s the law.
The jury has alread said that death could be an appropriate sentance during jury selection . Those who dont believe in the death penalty would not be selected for jury duty in the case so yes they are prepared for it
Ohh ok, thanks guys for the info, i live in Europe and didn't know that. Good to know they are ready to make those decisions if need be.
The jury will have some counselling after this but I don’t think they’ll feel any guilt if they choose death, not after realising the truth and that is “if he could get his hands in a gun again he’d happily shoot every one of them and watch the life drain out of them and any children and of course animals” he doesn’t respect any life and it’s obvious. He is an evil brat and doesn’t deserve to live.
Righteous anger will let them deliver the death penalty and sleep well at night. Anyone naive enough to show pity to an aggressive murderer condones their killing with disregard to the families left behind. Being that soft is nothing short of disgusting weakness.
Why does it take so long to decide between death penalty and life without parole? I know it's different but I think there are quite enough evidences to make a decision whathever it is !

Oh stop it with "big tech" already. Just another conservative catchphrase because a PRIVATE COMPANY (Twitter) decided to stop enabling a domestic terrorist. (Trump)
I guess it depends on the audience/type of people that saw his comments. unfortunately there are many who probably agreed with him and even encouraged him.
There is a big difference between 2017-17 and 2020. His comments were pretty normal for the day. This is why we can't have nice things today.

Judging by his sister's account of their upbringing, he didn't have a good life in childhood. If only he had some help or had a friend to talk about his grief, he could have shared with someone and maybe he might have not done what he did. But unfortunately he did . And he doesn't show any remorse. Not a tear .
The sister grew up with their horrible birth mother- Nikolas was adopted to a safe caring home at birth. So the worst we can say about what he suffered there was that his mother used crack and alcohol whilst pregnant with him. However, thousands of babies are born to mothers using drugs and alcohol and they don't end up killers. I believe he had some predisposing factors but primarily he'd had zero real consequences for his bad behaviour up until this. This combined with his innate antisocial personality disorder and a lack of impulse control (perhaps due to damage to frontal cortex from alcohol and drug exposure in womb) made him more likely to act out like this- he should have been in an inpatient facility but he received mental health support in the community. Above all if he had never had access to a gun this couldn't have happened.
Death row here he comes!!!
It’s ok life is a much worse charge!!! Watch your back..
The amount of time the media has given this killer is unbelievable. He isnt handcuffed. He is just relaxed and at ease. It is almost as if he didnt kill anybody. How long does this case take? I dont remember it taking this long for Timothy McVeigh to be sentenced. It took the jury 23 hours to come to a verdict. Why is this thing taking 30 days? Why isnt he handcuffed?
jury is not allowed to see him in handcuffs until choice been made
Why can't the jury see him in hand cuffs?
He does have angel shackles on.
Dang spell check that'd be he does have ANKEL cuffs on.
@@daniely6282 he is in striking distance of his lawyer. He has a history of outbursts.
I wonder how much this trial will end up costing when the sentence should be more than obvious
The lives of 34 people….who cares how much it costs as long as the correct justice is served.
Does anyone know what exactly the families and victims want as far as punishment goes?
A medal
Time to bring back torture chambers
And what good would that do? Plenty of studies concluded that capital punishment is useless, crime numbers don't go down. But red states love their vengeance so if I were a legislator I would do everything I can so that firing squad and guillotine are the only options available. Gas, chair and injection are torture...
Someone commented regarding how would the jurors feel about passing a sentence of death on this young man............most of them probably won't live to see the sentence carried out. This case will be appealed for many years.
@Sleepycreepy When you say quick? I thought you have appeal after appeal, and like most countries, the court sytems are really slow and lengthy?
@Sleepycreepy Thanks for the info. I was under the impression most convicted folk on death row would sit there for years while various appeals are presented to the court system.
Wow I can't believe no body said anything this could have been prevented
I'm tired of everyone focusing on all the negative aspects of this kid's life. They are too concerned about whether he drew swastikas and whatnot, I've never heard about him drawing peace signs everywhere. The kids literally spoke out against racial violence. He spoke out against drug use. But everyone wants to talk about is all the murders he did. This should have ended in a mistrial a long time ago.
and youtube did nothing about this and he needs to be put down
Cruz is a bad guy who deserves to be with the worst of the worst forever.
Dr Scott is exemplary! He gets NC!
He gets North Carolina?
POV: If Will Ferrell was a psychiatrist instead of a comedic genius.
Ha, you’re right!
Man Mr. Cruz is so comfortable the only thing he's missing is a dam foot massage. He's so proud and comfortable getting to hangout in court every day.
Agreed!
Some of you seem jealous of him. Personally I wouldn’t trade places with him for anything in the world. It would suck to be a murderer. I honestly thank God that I’m not one.
@@TennesseeYaya he wanted noterietay and he enjoys causing others pain and suffering. Sad to say but yes I believe he is enjoying this.
"This particular exhibits does not include the racial comments" 🤦♂️
The family's weeping hearts 💕 will be everlasting
No one ever saw what he was posting and you tube didn't say anything either?
Is it just me, or does the guy testifying look like sheriff Grady Judd. 🤔
Yes he does but Grady Judd sounds like Dr Phil now don't get me wrong I like Grady Judd he's good stuff but I have to give him credit for his voice that sounds like Dr Phil
Needed to be institutionalized. The warning signs were there and we as people weren’t paying attention.
Yep- I can't believe he wasn't institutionalised! People are institutionalised for much much less every day! I can't help but think if he was female he would have been treated much more harshly.
he said he liked animals when the psychiatrist asked him to read out loud a book about animals. So what he say cannot be believed. He lies.
Having seen this and other videos from this same witness I don't see how NC can stay off death row.
How many other young boys or men are out there that want to commit similar acts on unarmed individuals in schools or elsewhere?
Too many. As you have seen, they take their turn and keep doing this sequentially.
It's been increasing in recent years. All these rejects wants to be the new columbine shooters.
Why hasn't he been made to walk the plank yet?? He wants to drag this out to indeed "make the families suffer" as he posted and it's disgusting he has defense lawyers. There needs to be exceptions for mass shooters and be directly sentenced by a judge to give some type of closure sooner so the families can fully grieve for their loved ones.
His mother imprinted onto him while he was still in her womb. What a legacy.
These lawyers…ALL of them…need to be mic’d up. Walking away from the podium and continuing to talk makes it difficult to hear.
They can’t be mic’d away from the podium, the jury is only allowed to hear stuff being read into record or put in front of the court. Communication between the lawyers (specifically NC’s lawyers) being overheard when they aren’t presenting could be considered a break in attorney client privilege and could get the whole case thrown out
@@Hidakaku56 I only mean when they are up questioning the person on the stand..I just wish they wouldn’t walk away from the podium incessantly because it makes it harder to understand what they are saying.
me, me, me - not one shred of feeling for another human
planned act
How is he not in the chair already. Courts dragging this for no reason, mostly their fault for giving him all this attention .
he killed many kids , ruined many family lives . He do not have any remorse.
He don’t care
He need the chair
You wonder why the court system is so backed up.
Sounds like a narcissist
he looks greasy
And pale 🤢
@Sukmyanuuuuus nothing unless you literally look sick. This mf got the suds
Well said MD
When working with special needs students with behavior issues through puberty years is hard at times. They act differently to extremes sometimes not understanding boundaries or what's appropriate. Does this psychiatrist have experience with cases like this? How can he say Autistic children don't or other students with brain disorders don't do things.
Dr Charles Scott is the best of the best
Why is is wearing a 70s granny glasses ?
Supposedly, defense lawyers believe jurors look at defendants more favorably if they wear glasses. It isn't true but they try it anyway.
He's cross-eyed, didn't you notice? Plus, those are jail-issued glasses, I'm sure. I read somewhere that he used contacts to correct his strabismus.
Antisocial behaviour is not feeling remorse in others...
I can tell yall that i as an anti social person, diagnosed, i simply dont care for human connection, i have no attachment to emotions, but i also am educated enough to know that i dont want to be hurt and that i dont wanna be in a shooting by another me that isnt educated or cared for enough to not be stuck in a bad psychosis cause they do exist and i am admitting having thought of direct plans to kill people.
WE NEED TO CARE FOR PEOPLE, MENTAL HEALTH IS IMPORTANT !!!
What is a "professional" school shooter
How the hell did nobody reach out to this kid before he did something! Ughhh! What the heck
He never asked for help
Some people are beyond help. Born not typical mentally
It wouldn't have mattered if he did not truly want the help. He could have been provided with the best therapists, case managers, psychiatrists, etc. from an early age up until the day of the shooting, but if he didn't want to change it wouldn't make a difference.
Broken mental health system we have In USA. Many of the medicine given to the individuals with mental issues have lots of side effects and don’t fix the problem. This individuals treat patients just as a number and don’t care what could happened. Sad to see so many victims 😢 when this could be prevented.
@@paulagrullon5234 this isnt a mental health issue
I want to know what black label institutional psychiatric drugs he was on, what SSRIs was he taking that often come with suicidal/homicidal ideation as side effects
How were these comments not flagged and brought to authorities?
Excelent lawyers.
I love that he gets to cringe for however long the rest of his life is knowing that people have seen his internet search history (which is extra weird if you’ve never seen it) and his RUclips comments lol, these are things you think nobody will ever know is you or see lol
Yeah- sadly this appears to have been the thing that affected him most.
6 months later - I realize nou only that this murderer was on medication while on trial -he wouldn't know what anybody said to him - even the parents of the deceased 😳
“Just don’t give an F about life”. Well what are they waiting for if he doesn’t even care.
Pay attention to what is said 5:16
I caught that too. All the families that spoke their lasts words to him, I could only imagine that it was arousing him secretively. That same damn punchable expression he kept.
he sounds like every 7 or 8th 4chan poster's impotent rage regarding anything with a black person or trans person in it.
How the hell did no one report those comments jeez come on people
Nikolas Cruz reminds of Mitch Leary from the movie "In the Line of Fire".
C.I.A. Agent David Coppinger: Leary is what we nowadays call a wet boy.
Al D'Andrea: [in Leary's home] What's a wet boy, Frank?
Frank Horrigan: Leary's an assassin.
Al D'Andrea: Oh, Jesus.
C.I.A. Agent David Coppinger: In Leary's case, that's putting it too gently. He's more like a predator.
Nikolas Cruz - A Trained Assassin.
It’s actually embarrassing and a major insult when school shooters compare themselves to Eric and Dylan. They would’ve never been shooters in our current school system
I can’t believe the jury said no to the death penalty and only said life in prison is the best punishment. So for the rest of his life he’ll be living off tax payer dollars and he’ll probably be put into protective custody.
that one jury member who couldnt do the job should have excused herself from jury duty so she or he is as guilty of this evil bastard and i hope whomever couldnt vote for death will get some payback I dont know how that person can excuse him and then themselves
@@thomasgrey212 Not deciding that death is the best solution =/= being as bad as a mass murderer
Charles had enough of reading 😂 today
For You Trekky Fans out there.....
Yep, Nikolas Cruz is a sociopath. Remember, The Star Trek Voyager Episode - "Meld"....
Ensign Sudor kills a fellow crew member....
TUVOK: I must advise you that under Starfleet Directive one zero one you do not have to answer any questions.
SUDER: No. No, there's no point in denying it anymore. I used a two kilo coil spanner. He was sitting at the impulse system control panel. Didn't even look up when I moved in behind him and I swung the spanner as hard as I could.
TUVOK: Crewman, I suggest you speak to counsel.
SUDER: There was practically no blood. I was surprised at that. I figured that the EPS conduit was the easiest way to dispose of the body, but I must have damaged one of the circuits when I put him inside. Oh, I hid the spanner behind a comm. line access panel on deck seven.
TUVOK: Why did you kill him, Mister Suder?
SUDER: No reason.
TUVOK: That is not a satisfactory answer. You must have had some motive.
SUDER: I didn't like the way he looked at me.
Why such a long post??
