The letter written by the child he saved is both touching and heartbreaking.
Agreed. I listen to a lot of John's cases without getting misty eyed usually, but that made me tear up fast.
Wow. That letter he wrote was beautiful. ❤ Sending prayers to everyone. Rip Fred.
I live near here, in Greensboro. High Point extends into 4 counties. Guilford (mostly) Davidson, Forsyth and Randolph. Which is why there are mentions of different counties.
Police really do these kinds of things all the time. It's so sad but the gunshot wounds tell you everything you need to know. This officer was shooting at this young man while his back was to him, probably trying to get away from the initial shooting as well as the officer. Some officer in plain clothes starts shooting at you, you have no idea if he even is a cop. It could easily be someone apart of the initial shooting. I just find it disgraceful that these situations happen and you don't see the officer being charged. Absolutely disgusting but this is the reality of police in this country. RIP Fred Cox, you deserved so much better
That’s why qualified immunity needs to go…
Wow. This case hurts. I don’t live in NC nor anywhere close, but I feel for Fred’s mom. I have one child also. I don’t know how I would survive if my child were killed that way. 😢
Great coverage as always, John.
I believe the S markers in the autopsy diagram might indicate scrapes. He would have injured himself when he was falling after being shot.
It’s always unfortunate whenever somebody helping others is killed. Thank you for talking about this and many other cases that could go under the radar John. Keep up the great work and take care!
❤ RIP young man. Strength to his momma and family and the young man and other mother he was trying to help. This is horrible. Does no one care about life anymore? ❤
I live near High Point. I almost rented a house there. Anything I could afford were in seedy areas. I was nope, no thank you. High Point has been mentioned in some documentaries on gangs. When the furniture market comes it is huge. People will rent out their own homes for attendees and stay somewhere else. High Point also used to have drag boat racing at Oak Hollow lake. It was a huge event. So it is sad to see the decline of the area. The mall there is practically dead. But then there is the juxtaposition of High Point University, which has a beautiful campus. It is surrounded by a tall wrought iron fence. It was just ranked as one of the top schools. But then 3 streets over it's a crime zone
Love these deep dives
These types of cases make me extremely angry. It's heartbreaking for the friends and families to go through something so traumatic, with absolutely NO closure, justice, or peace of mind. They're robbed of that, and of their faith (given they have any) in the system. Fred would've been sitting in jail awaiting trial if the tables were turned. It's a disgrace to let these officers go free without any true consequences.
So true!!
Good morning John!! Hope you have a great day!!!
I follow a wandering office, have been since he illegally pulled me over. He was fired during his probation period from my town for unspecified reasons, he now works an hour away in another town. It's frustrating! And not okay.
What is a wandering office? I don’t understand about how you follow one.
Somehow, this cycle of violence has got to be broken. I don't live in the States, but I read and hear these stories all the time, and they break my heart. Somehow, the cycles of poverty, hopelessness, and violence that drive kids into these gangs need to stop, and somehow, someone needs to keep guns out of their hands before they have a chance to become teenage killers or teenage statistics. If it's heartbreaking to watch from a distance, then I can't imagine what it's like to be living with it every day. Someone needs to be giving these kids hope that their lives are worth more than what a gang can give them. I wish I knew how.
Me too! 😢😢
Unfortunately, you only hear about the relatively few crimes compared to multiple millions of people who do good here in the States. Nobody reports that, and most of us are and do good without broadcasting it.
It’s called voting to change systemic racism. For those of us in the states that can vote, anyway. Housing segregation and discrimination is a direct result of and simultaneously a cause of poverty continuing. Poverty, especially when it’s multigenerational, leads to crime. When a specific group of people don’t have the ability to compound wealth in one generation much less multiple, they don’t benefit from things like inheritance like the middle and upper class does, and they don’t have the ability to escape said poverty. But education and discourse on those subjects is mostly within the academic sphere, despite what the far right likes to assume/push. The majority of people in this country are extremely ignorant of how continued socioeconomic discrimination fuels crime stats, and that includes many moderates and democrat voters.
@@njwpoo666most people are not doing that many charitable acts. The majority of people are just minding their own business and not intervening when awful shit does happen near us and in our own neighborhoods. People expect to be rewarded and praised for doing what is just normal and right, when that should just be the bare minimum.
@@Tsumami__ Wow, you just nailed it. We're dealing with similar issues of multi-generational trauma, poverty, and violence with the Indigenous people of my country, and so much of it is the same story. When a certain part of the population has been systematically brutalised for hundreds of years, not even treated as human, and a large segment of society won't even recognise either that it happened, or that it has a current, lasting effect on those people, what can you do? I work with a lot of Indigenous people individually, as part of the government funded mental health treatment centre I'm part of, and their stories are so often so sad and similar. I'm trying to do my part on a case by case basis, by helping individuals to become more mentally and emotionally stable and resilient, and to deal with substance abuse issues, but there's so much more that's needed, starting at a basic standard of living. Nobody in a rich country should be going hungry, or without at least a basic place to live, especially children. But people just accept it. If we as a society want this violence to stop, then this level of extreme poverty among the most vulnerable needs to stop.
21 is the legal age to own a hand gun. 18 for a long gun.
Thank you John for sharing Fred's story. It has got to be incredibly devastating to lose a child and then to know that they won't see justice for the death of that child.
I admire your style John. Been following you for 9 years. I can't help but feel for everyone in this case, yourself included. I'm very frustrated and for good reason IMHO. Thanks again for your work and dedication.
Good morning John, hope you’re doing well!
I wonder if they’ll just leave it as an “unsolved homicide” forever, or if the coroner will be forced to change the manner of death to undetermined or accidental? If they leave it as homicide-it will most definitely remained unresolved. Also, grand juries only have evidence presented for the prosecution typically. Which is obviously biased-hence the saying “you could indict a ham sandwich.” Bc it’s so easy to indict anyone. They didn’t WANT to indict the officer, simple as that! Biased? Absolutely! There’s no justice here!
As someone who has written up and overseen autopsy reports cursive should never be used. Reports, and specifically body diagrams like the one shown, should be clear enough that anyone can read them as they will often be used in court proceedings and may need to be read by lawyers, judges, jurors etc. Unfortunately many times this isn't adhered to and we end up with a page full of indecipherable scribbles. For what it's worth, I'd hazard a guess that the "S" marked below the knee that John thought may have been indicating another wound was probably marking a scar unrelated to the incident. It's common practice to note any scars or unrelated injuries on the body so that there is no confusion caused by them later.
Qualified immunity needs to go away. There'd be a much needed increase in responsibility and if necessary, consequences.
what a wild story. hard to wrap my head around the logistics of this one. really don't even know what to even say besides i hope his family as well as everyone who had anything to do with this event find some sort of peace. this is utterly traumatic and the way it's being handled makes it that much worse. life shouldn't be this way...
also thank you so much John for covering this. we need more people like *you* in the world. thank you for everything you do for these families, a legend.
.223 is a big boy round actually. Ar15 and m16 rifles are usually .223 or .556..... And a .556 rifle can use both interchangeably. But a .223 specific rifle can only take the pressure load of a .223. Its basucally the same bullet size of a .22 long but is a full metal jacket bullet with a point that travels at insanely high velocity, usually in the idea that it can defeat body armor. Small cal plus high velocity = penetration power.
Always watch your videos!
Also, I'm not in a gang or gang affiliated friends, that I know of, but I always thought a funeral was kinda off limits, as a rule of thumb. In my day, maybe, things are different now. 😢
Right. I don’t know that any place is off limits anymore unfortunately.
So sad that there were no camera's around. I don't agree with you John. This seems to me like the Cop was doing his job. He was there for a reason and it's unfortunate that this happened. I feel like he say Fred and in his capacity reacted, like any law enforcement officer would do. This is a gang saturated area, gang related funeral and Fred had gang filiations.
People love to make everything about race, and hype it up.
Releasing balloons is very bad for the environment. Not that anyone cares.
If Fred was running toward a police officer with a gun in his hand and raising it, it is on him. All this Fred was a Saint stuff is ridiculous.
A very large amount of occupations will let you resign rather than have your 'sin' come out, and it could be as simple as interoffice dating. This is no different.
RIP Fred Cox Jr.
Here in Australia our gun laws are very strict. Legal gun ownership is extremely strict. Of course we do have guns owned illegally by some people. But we generally agree that our gun laws have helped us avoid the terrible outcomes that our cousins in the USA see SO often from gun violence. Please please USA - review your gun laws. Try to stem the tide of violence.
This is kind of pointless. The authorities may have a lot of evidence they haven't released so just wait for the report. Talk about putting the horse before the cart!
What a beautiful letter. Both Fred and Tavaris were raised to be great boys!
Awe, getting ready for work, tears in my eyes, because of that 12yr Olds letter. Wow touching😢
Goodmorning 🎉🎉
🤍
❤Thank you John❤
No kind act goes unpunished.
👍🏻
How very tragic.
Regarding your questions about if the young man did have a legal gun, wouldn't it be expected for him to fire back at a car from which shots were fired: The answer is a big NO. Even if someone has the legal right to carry, we are forbidden from firing recklessly, which in the context of the chaos of a driveway attack, that would have definitely been reckless. A person who has a concealed carry permit may only defend oneself or another individual personally, and the person is absolutely liable for anything that goes wrong if that gun gets fired. I hope I explained that well, but I feel like I didn't. CCW owners get sued and charged all the time for firing shots where they felt it was self-defense but the law says no. Hand guns do not have the long-range accuracy of a rifle, and it would have been incredibly negligent for somebody to fire at a car through chaos and a crowd.
I think understandable is the word that is meant as opposed to expected.
The family should absolutely sue for wrongful death
But for the gang activity, this would not have occurred.
A Davidson county cop got off from murder
💔💔💔
High Point is a cesspool I know it all to well
Amazingly compassionate telling of people’s struggles and challenges. These gun toting gangs have no respect for human life and it’s really sad to see that they choose this path to destruction.
