@Satya Samuel Me because nothing else is open after 12 in the morning when I'm starving after work ;^; plus it's right by work too so i often pick up food before i get there. The one near me isn't too bad- could be better but it's better than the burger king that we have-
@Satya Samuel Thank you so much, i appreciate the concern.... I've been essentially living off microwaveable and packaged pasta for the past year and a half... drinking about 3 sodas per day.... i haven't been the kindest to my body and it shows, even though I'm only 20.
how often this happens is actually concerning. as a true crime fan, a lot of time i see this in the cases i watch/research and the randomness of half the murders you see is just terrifying. i have seen a case where some random man from a completely different town visits somewhere and randomly, with no criminal history and a great life, decides to kill someone. people are really crazy, you gotta watch out for them.

@Kay Pop Well, obviously we should all know that the logical equation is that everything comes from source. Everything you touch, look at, feel, etc always comes from somewhere and something manifest as dense energy, which came from a star. Something can’t just come from nothing, and that same something cannot be destroyed or created, only transformed, so yes, there is a “source” consciousness/creation. Anyone who disagrees or thinks otherwise goes against the very nature of logic of the universe and physics itself. Now to blame the result of a murder as it was because of God? Now that is illogical. We were transformed into sentient, free-thinking beings who have the power to transform anything around us and mimic the “source”, regardless of moral views of what’s right or wrong. Our potential is shrouded by the illusion that we can’t become more than just a being which can’t do much physically. The more we throw away the narrative of “it was because of God’s will”, the more we start to realize it’s US that’s causing the problem, but nevertheless there are some things we cannot control. The potential physically, and metaphysically of ourselves is there, we just need to transform our understanding and open the eyes. The person above you is insane (Serial Killer).

That's mainly why I'm for death penalty. would bring alot of closure to put a round through his eyes disgust wouldn't last long after a few reminders,but it would help moving forward as it's a way for her to take back the power she lost when she couldn't help her parents.it seems barbaric but we are animals and do have tribalism functions in us that do serve a purpose.like vengeance that is truly just in nature and heart does good for us in terms of self ego. And if not a round pressing the button for the injection also is doable,but the main factor is giving the highest level of control to the victim as thats one of the feelings considered worse then death,being helpless infront of a tradgy because we are so used to have a reasonable control over out lives.
@@thenukedgamer65 I would be for death penalty if I could trust the government to give it to the right people. Far too many innocent people have been killed using death penalty that I just can’t support it unless the system was 100% accurate. So I don’t.
@@anyalaASMR thing is that was more so for the past.now generally it's actually pretty accurate for things related to death penalty type crimes.like 1 general case is domestic terrorism and the bar set for that is pretty high.like you could shoot up a whole block with bullets and still not get the charge.also only for cut and dry cases.like some people are just evil,like we'd never think to put hilter in a psyche ward even though dude was a nut job. The Hit or misspart of modern criminal justice is more so for things like robbery ect.modern dna testing just to good and it's really hard to get rid of all evidence. Also we have very long drawn out process for most death sentences.takes years to decades before its actually carried out the sentence.
Maybe he lied to lessen his sentence? I mean plotting a murder vs a random homicide would have different consequences. If so, his lawyer would’ve told him to do so, and to keep everything else to himself.

This was near my hometown, I can't tell you how horrific this was. We prayed for the safe return of Jamie. SHE WAS NEVER FORGOTTEN, We all prayed for her and we still do. Praise God she will be okay.
"OK"????? At the VERY LEAST this girl is going to have some serious TRUST issues! But if she can "Get Over It" (like that song from the Eagles goes), especially within the first five years of the rest of her life, she will have MY respect!
I live about an hour south of where this happened. Everyone in the area-and statewide were trying frantically to find her. Those who couldn't help in the search, watched the horrific ordeal unfold day by day. Hoping and praying for her safe return. When she escaped and found help, it was like a huge collective sigh of relief. I only hope that she can live the rest of her life as normal as can be.
COUNSELING IS VERY CRITICAL. I am a survivor and 25 years later, I still have PTSD. I start counseling next Wednesday. I walked sideways for two years, can still hear a leaf blowing down the street, 150 feet or more, my back has to be against the wall if I go out to eat, which is not often and have a very difficult using the bathroom, still after 25 years. I start seeing a psychiatrist next week.
This story isn't real btw, but yes that's very true. Blame people for that, and entertainment media. Hollywood and modern society think people like "tHe qUiEt kId", and movie "psychopaths" act like crazy sadists. So people generally think they can point out a killer or potential one. In reality quiet kids are nothing more than that and actual psychopaths behave more human than normal people do. They have to fake certain emotions and are incredibly charasmatic so they can be a little over the top. Because of that, actual psychopaths are the least suspected which is crazy to think about.
@Mario Canez while I agree that most are actual cowards don't assume all will be some live for a challenge (that sounded way creeper than I meant it) I remember a story from highschool ( I was a freshman that year and these were all seniors) about how a girl was getting stalked by some guy she had slept with a few times just a real creep he would hit on like 7th and 8th grade girls just pure scumbag so eventually she got her boyfriend to go after the guy because he also believed in the entire hes scared of facing a man thing the boyfriend was found in a ditch days later with multiple stab wounds like I think the report said like 57 or 67 ( this was years ago so my number might be off a bit) and they said he went out pretty painfully so they arrested the stalker good thing too he had gone to school that day all happy and really cocky we later found out he was keeping a serated still knife ( the one he used on the boyfriend) in his bag I think he is set for death row but he didn't seem to show any regret for his actions at all in fact he seemed way to damn proud of it still sends chills down my spine
I hate to do this but it's "to" if you add the extra O the word gets longer. Pronounce it out loud. You can think of the extra O saying to the other O "Me as well" because he joined in. "Too" is used to say, "myself as well"

The reason he did this is called "The calling of the void" a terrifying phenomena that often causes us to think of doing incrediblely dangerous or illegal things. I.e while driving and you have that thought of what would happen if I just swerve into oncoming traffic or onto the sidewalk. In Patterson's case it was the murder and destruction of this family.
@@Kilmoran its also called "call of the void" the naming although strange is really the best descriptor. a bizarre and often insane impulse or thought out of simply nowhere.... i mean come on it speaks for itself.
@@TheEducatedGoths Depending on your view of "the void", I suppose so. It is fitting enough for most I guess. I do not see it that way but that doesn't matter given the general idea being conveyed.
@@Aeo267 When considering it on a philosophical or personal meaning level yes. There is a Buddhist conception of the Void as an example and Miyamoto Musashi interprets it for principles sportsmanship and that lifestyle. But most people see it as "darkness" or "emptiness" in a malevolent way.
@@Purplethingyt I was joking about kicking butt. There's atleast 2 videos of him but he's been getting beat up. I forget what I put in. I was just watching prison fights and 2 popped up with him getting beat up. Type in his name and jail fight see what happens.
I used to walk around that area a lot when I visited and got the cops called on me from ppl who mistook me for her, it was annoying but I cried every time, seemed like the whole place cared for her so much
Seriously man every time he pulls some cheesy shit I think “I gotta stop watching this garbage” and then every time a vid comes up I proceed to watch it in its entirety
I remember when this happened, it was all over our local news for so long. I had honestly given up hope they’d find her alive and it was a really unbelievable and great moment when she was.
Looks can be deceiving though. And even though he doesn’t look terrifying, doesn’t mean he’s not terrifying. That’s the thing. He’s dangerous. And did something wrong. Don’t underestimate people just cause they don’t look evil or terrifying. Or dangerous.
His motives are frightening! You always wonder how killers are so easy to profile, and it’s because they never kill randomly. If they stated doing this, it would be dreadful. Luckily this is rare
Real life stories prove how easy it is to kill somebody and practically not get caught ever. Had he killed the girl as well, he would never have gotten caught.
My parents actually had a friend who was killed like this: no motive, just picked someone at random to kill. Edit: stop saying there's always a reason to kill, news is wrong, etc. There are scary, sick people out there that will kill at random and destroy lives. The friend I was referencing died in 2003. A man of 17 saw her in the crowd at a party and just decided "that one." He drugged her drink, did awful things and killed her brutally without remorse. Her brother died of grief and my parents still can't talk about it in detail to this day. Please stop acting like you know everything If you want to look at her case files, it was a large-scale case, even on global news. Google "Heather Carpenter Redding, CA murder"
@Sprinkles Cakebottom you just proved my point though they want to kill, they have a reason, want, or need to kill. It just doesn’t happen randomly there is build up.
Two kids in New Hampshire killed an elderly couple just because their house had a red door that drew their attention. But they had already decided to kill someone just for shits.
@@crustytomato5164 you know nothing about murderers if you think there's always a reason. Their brains doesn't function like a normal person's. They have massive chemical imbalance possibly, or head trauma earlier in like to the frontal lobe can also can random unwarranted outbursts of violent acts as well. You may deem those as "reasons" I guess but there are people killed for no other reason than wrong place wrong time. Happened on Facebook like a couple years back. Dude killed another guy because he was the first person he saw
@@Kinobambino she is, her family finally opened up after long quiet saying she doing good and recovering both mentally and physically surprisingly well. I also live very near where this happened.
Ikr like I was getting ready for school and I saw this on the news I was like oh I hope they find her soon A month later they still hadn’t found her and I was scared that she was dead My friend also said her mom knew her parents
According to one of my professors in Criminal Justice Education... the most terrifying criminals are those who have no apparent motive why they do their crime. Like, they just do it because they can with no remorse.
This young girl was truly, truly so brave. She was not only dealing with her kidnapping, but the murder of both of her parents. She was so smart. And level-headed in picking the perfect time to make her escape. I thought about her every day. I hope she is doing well now. That was just so much horror.
He was hoping she'd eventually fall in love with him too. You know. The guy who shot her mom in front of her and the walked her past her dead father. What a seriously sick bastard
my paranoia: so... nothin’s changed right? my brain: yeah, yeah i think there’s nothing new to worry about right? me: *thinks of other ways i could end up dead and starts freaking out again*
I don't think she even trusted him, he just broke it and killed her and abducted her. *Real* Moral of the Story: Teach your family how to shoot a gun, and keep a gun in every adult/teen bedroom.
This happened here in Wisconsin. If I remember correctly he watched her for a while and planned this out before he did what he did. She's a strong little girl. She lives with her Aunt now.
@@nelliesilvers1210 He planned on raping her I’m pretty sure. I looked it up online and he said he had sexual fantasies about her. There was Definitely a motive. Why else would a grown man kidnap a 13 year old girl?
@@coolbeans107 It could've been opportunistic like a lot of kidnappings are🤷🏻♀️. OP said she thinks he'd watched her for a while so obviously this case wasn't unplanned but many of them are. Some of them are delusional and think there's a connection between the victim and themselves. Either way it's a tragically fucked up situation for the poor kid who's going to be traumatised for a lifetime.
The details of this story,how it happened is horrifying! The possibility of him becoming a trophy serial killer, IMO, could have happened. Thank God she was his first and only victim
I remember this story. During work, we’d watch the news everyday for updates and it was the biggest relief to hear that she was found. Reason why it was the only thing playing on the tvs everyday was because this happened in my area.
Did you do a longer story on this one ever? For you tube channel or podcast!? Ya should if not! This story happened not far from where we live. My husband and I both just were so full of lots of emotions during this. THIS story trips me out! Like truly WTF!?!?
Dang 21 year old man kidnapped a 13 year old just like that then gets caught, that’s some justice and he can suffer for all he did . I’m glad the old lady wasn’t scared or telling her to stay away she was a heroine and the dog must have been trained enough not to attack and ask questions later
"She was just there for no apparent reason" Listen, I get that you want to keep the grim details out so you don't trigger anyone, but let's not just lie here. We *know* why she was chained to a bed and it isn't to play monopoly.
No chains were used according to the reports. And no reports of any sexual crimes were reported either. And he never publicly confessed to having done anything. It’s no lie to report that. However, the reports of the crime do say something about the nature of the crime. They say he killed the father, broke in tied the girl and killed the mother. Shoved her in the trunk and imprisoned her in his house hiding her under his bed to 80 days. During that time he kept her in compliance via terror, and was confident she could be kept in place without any restraints. It was done via a process called learned helplessness, where when a creature is exposed to a stimulus like being punished for trying to escape, the creature eventually stops trying respond to that stimulus, like to attempt escape. In this case it was enough to keep her there 80 days. Now we see the prosecutors decline to charge him for kidnapping in order to avoid having her testify. All the more then if sexual crimes were involved. It’s consistent with the use of terror in holding her. She might still be to afraid or traumatized to even report anything about it at all.
The reason not to discuss whether or not she was raped is out of respect for her. She already suffered the immense trauma of having her parents murdered and then being kidnapped. She doesn’t need the whole world knowing about her sexual history, too.
@@evilsharkey8954 It could be. But it just wasn’t in the reports. And the declined to prosecute on even just the kidnapping charge to keep it away from her. I believe if he admitted to such crimes that’d be a matter of public record. The girls testimony to police. Harder to say. She was underage, but still you often find the info in some respect. Records of minors crimes are not freely available. Medical records are protected. I believe if they make a record it has to be retrievable though. But no record exists from looking it up. Which is totally inconsistent with how these crimes are usually committed.
@@chickenmonger123 No. It was reported. They just didn't want her to have to testify because it's extremely traumatic and he was already going away for life for both homicides. You can find it. He wanted to collect more girl slaves for the same purpose. Horrible.
I live in Wisconsin I remember when she went missing when they found her parents and when she escaped everyone thought she'd be dead by then it's crazy to think
Not true Sheriff Fitzgerald did.. What I'd like to know is one of the deputies seen and discribed Patterson's car on the way to the scene responding to the 911 call why wasn't that discription of vehicle never mentioned as one of interest to the public???! Deputy Vik or Fik was his name that discribed the car, he use to be on the force in Chetek..
I'm an MHT and see this a lot where I work. This is usually the cause of a preexisting mental health issue. People get admitted to our facility all the time because they suddenly have these uncontrollable impulses and either themselves or family usually want to be evaluated before they can act on any desires. Self- admittion/walk-ins are not uncommon and they're usually a clear sign that the person's issue is more likely mental health and not behavioral. This guy clearly needs help and definitely shouldn't be allowed to roam free.
Wow, decades of Forensic Psychology, wasted. Motives don't matter. What's the point in rehabilitating criminals at this point? Just go full draconian on all criminals.

Imagine destroying an Innocent girls' life/future randomly
Wayeee nah boi
That's mainly why I'm for death penalty. would bring alot of closure to put a round through his eyes disgust wouldn't last long after a few reminders,but it would help moving forward as it's a way for her to take back the power she lost when she couldn't help her parents.it seems barbaric but we are animals and do have tribalism functions in us that do serve a purpose.like vengeance that is truly just in nature and heart does good for us in terms of self ego.
And if not a round pressing the button for the injection also is doable,but the main factor is giving the highest level of control to the victim as thats one of the feelings considered worse then death,being helpless infront of a tradgy because we are so used to have a reasonable control over out lives.
@@thenukedgamer65 I would be for death penalty if I could trust the government to give it to the right people. Far too many innocent people have been killed using death penalty that I just can’t support it unless the system was 100% accurate. So I don’t.
@@anyalaASMR thing is that was more so for the past.now generally it's actually pretty accurate for things related to death penalty type crimes.like 1 general case is domestic terrorism and the bar set for that is pretty high.like you could shoot up a whole block with bullets and still not get the charge.also only for cut and dry cases.like some people are just evil,like we'd never think to put hilter in a psyche ward even though dude was a nut job.
The Hit or misspart of modern criminal justice is more so for things like robbery ect.modern dna testing just to good and it's really hard to get rid of all evidence.
Also we have very long drawn out process for most death sentences.takes years to decades before its actually carried out the sentence.

The most dangerous ones are the ones you wouldn't expect too be the killer and that's terrifying.
This story isn't real btw, but yes that's very true. Blame people for that, and entertainment media. Hollywood and modern society think people like "tHe qUiEt kId", and movie "psychopaths" act like crazy sadists. So people generally think they can point out a killer or potential one. In reality quiet kids are nothing more than that and actual psychopaths behave more human than normal people do. They have to fake certain emotions and are incredibly charasmatic so they can be a little over the top. Because of that, actual psychopaths are the least suspected which is crazy to think about.

@Mario Canez while I agree that most are actual cowards don't assume all will be some live for a challenge (that sounded way creeper than I meant it) I remember a story from highschool ( I was a freshman that year and these were all seniors) about how a girl was getting stalked by some guy she had slept with a few times just a real creep he would hit on like 7th and 8th grade girls just pure scumbag so eventually she got her boyfriend to go after the guy because he also believed in the entire hes scared of facing a man thing the boyfriend was found in a ditch days later with multiple stab wounds like I think the report said like 57 or 67 ( this was years ago so my number might be off a bit) and they said he went out pretty painfully so they arrested the stalker good thing too he had gone to school that day all happy and really cocky we later found out he was keeping a serated still knife ( the one he used on the boyfriend) in his bag I think he is set for death row but he didn't seem to show any regret for his actions at all in fact he seemed way to damn proud of it still sends chills down my spine
I hate to do this but it's "to" if you add the extra O the word gets longer. Pronounce it out loud. You can think of the extra O saying to the other O "Me as well" because he joined in. "Too" is used to say, "myself as well"

The reason he did this is called "The calling of the void" a terrifying phenomena that often causes us to think of doing incrediblely dangerous or illegal things. I.e while driving and you have that thought of what would happen if I just swerve into oncoming traffic or onto the sidewalk. In Patterson's case it was the murder and destruction of this family.
The calling of the void. If true... I have issues with that naming convention.
@@Kilmoran its also called "call of the void" the naming although strange is really the best descriptor. a bizarre and often insane impulse or thought out of simply nowhere.... i mean come on it speaks for itself.
@@TheEducatedGoths Depending on your view of "the void", I suppose so. It is fitting enough for most I guess. I do not see it that way but that doesn't matter given the general idea being conveyed.
@@Aeo267 When considering it on a philosophical or personal meaning level yes. There is a Buddhist conception of the Void as an example and Miyamoto Musashi interprets it for principles sportsmanship and that lifestyle. But most people see it as "darkness" or "emptiness" in a malevolent way.

Real life stories prove how easy it is to kill somebody and practically not get caught ever. Had he killed the girl as well, he would never have gotten caught.
My parents actually had a friend who was killed like this: no motive, just picked someone at random to kill.
Edit: stop saying there's always a reason to kill, news is wrong, etc. There are scary, sick people out there that will kill at random and destroy lives. The friend I was referencing died in 2003. A man of 17 saw her in the crowd at a party and just decided "that one." He drugged her drink, did awful things and killed her brutally without remorse. Her brother died of grief and my parents still can't talk about it in detail to this day. Please stop acting like you know everything
If you want to look at her case files, it was a large-scale case, even on global news. Google "Heather Carpenter Redding, CA murder"
There’s always a reason. I know the short fun Internet video told you otherwise but I can promise you there’s always a reason.
@Sprinkles Cakebottom you just proved my point though they want to kill, they have a reason, want, or need to kill. It just doesn’t happen randomly there is build up.

I dont think so
I remember seeing this on the news for a while and people kept thinking she killed her parents and ran off.
"She was just there for no apparent reason"
Listen, I get that you want to keep the grim details out so you don't trigger anyone, but let's not just lie here. We *know* why she was chained to a bed and it isn't to play monopoly.
No chains were used according to the reports. And no reports of any sexual crimes were reported either. And he never publicly confessed to having done anything. It’s no lie to report that.
However, the reports of the crime do say something about the nature of the crime. They say he killed the father, broke in tied the girl and killed the mother. Shoved her in the trunk and imprisoned her in his house hiding her under his bed to 80 days. During that time he kept her in compliance via terror, and was confident she could be kept in place without any restraints. It was done via a process called learned helplessness, where when a creature is exposed to a stimulus like being punished for trying to escape, the creature eventually stops trying respond to that stimulus, like to attempt escape.
In this case it was enough to keep her there 80 days. Now we see the prosecutors decline to charge him for kidnapping in order to avoid having her testify. All the more then if sexual crimes were involved. It’s consistent with the use of terror in holding her. She might still be to afraid or traumatized to even report anything about it at all.
The reason not to discuss whether or not she was raped is out of respect for her. She already suffered the immense trauma of having her parents murdered and then being kidnapped. She doesn’t need the whole world knowing about her sexual history, too.
@@evilsharkey8954 It could be. But it just wasn’t in the reports. And the declined to prosecute on even just the kidnapping charge to keep it away from her. I believe if he admitted to such crimes that’d be a matter of public record. The girls testimony to police. Harder to say. She was underage, but still you often find the info in some respect. Records of minors crimes are not freely available. Medical records are protected. I believe if they make a record it has to be retrievable though. But no record exists from looking it up. Which is totally inconsistent with how these crimes are usually committed.
@@chickenmonger123 No. It was reported. They just didn't want her to have to testify because it's extremely traumatic and he was already going away for life for both homicides. You can find it. He wanted to collect more girl slaves for the same purpose. Horrible.

I'm an MHT and see this a lot where I work. This is usually the cause of a preexisting mental health issue. People get admitted to our facility all the time because they suddenly have these uncontrollable impulses and either themselves or family usually want to be evaluated before they can act on any desires. Self- admittion/walk-ins are not uncommon and they're usually a clear sign that the person's issue is more likely mental health and not behavioral. This guy clearly needs help and definitely shouldn't be allowed to roam free.
